Mayor's Message

Dear Friends, 
It was an exciting weekend here in Kingston as we celebrated the grand opening of Smorgasburg. The outdoor market attracted thousands of residents and visitors, all of whom seemed eager to explore the adaptive reuse of the great Hutton Brickyards and enjoy a wide variety of foods and crafts offered by local and regional vendors. We look forward to working with the event organizers to address some of the traffic issues that came up, so please continue to check the City's website, Facebook page and your local newspapers as we send any updates that may impact traffic patterns. 

I am also excited to announce our first ever community-based budget forum coming up next week. While we are just barely halfway through the year, it is time for us to plan for 2017. I encourage each of you to join me as we launch the budget process and review our upcoming opportunities and challenges. 

-Steve
