"Constituent services really is the most important part of the work that we do as elected officials," Lawler said. Rep. Mike Lawler has opened a Congressional District Office in Putnam County, in space at Carmel Town Hall. "It's great to be here in the Town of Carmel in Putnam County," he said in an announcement after a ribbon-cutting. "When we were looking at opening an office on this side of the river, we really wanted to be in a location that was accessible to residents east of the Hudson River. "Thanks to the generosity of the Town of Carmel, and especially Supervisor Michael Cazzari, in offering this space to us at Town Hall so that we can serve our constituents, I am excited to open this office today, which will be open five days a week to constituents from Westchester, Putnam, and Dutchess Counties. From passports to IRS issues to veterans issues and more, it's great to have a location that we can operate out of that people can come visit on a daily basis to receive assistance from our office." New York's 17th Congressional District is just north of New York City and contains all or parts of Rockland, Putnam, Dutchess, and Westchester Counties. "It helps make a critical impact on our neighbors, and you, Congressman Lawler, choosing to set up shop right here in the heart of Putnam County, in the Town of Carmel, at Town Hall, says a lot to the people of Putnam County that you care and that you are here to support the residents of Putnam," said Putnam County Executive Kevin Byrne. |
