Promotes internal Council leaders, while adding experienced government professionals
City Hall – Today, New York City Council Speaker Adrienne E. Adams announced new members of her senior staff leadership, naming seasoned government professionals to her team. In addition to adding staff with previous experience in the Council and New York government, Speaker Adams also promoted longtime internal staff members to new leadership positions.
“It has been a priority for me to strengthen the essential work of the Council, enabling our legislature to be a strong co-equal branch of city government that delivers results for New Yorkers,” said Speaker Adrienne E. Adams. “This diverse group of effective leaders from within the Council, and with past Council and government experience, will help us advance the interests of New Yorkers in all 51 Council Districts of our city. I’m thrilled to recognize and elevate current Council staff leaders, who have been dedicated to serving this legislative body, our city and their colleagues. It is also exciting to bring extraordinarily talented and thoughtful public servants – who value our essential role and have contributed to its success over the years – onto my team and in many cases back to the Council.”
