White Plains, NY - Today, Judge Robert J. Prisco lifted a Temporary Restraining Order issued earlier this week that stopped the Board of Legislators from holding a Special Meeting on Wednesday. Following this ruling, Chairwoman Catherine Borgia submitted a letter of resignation vacating her leadership position to the Clerk of the Board. According to the Rules of the Board, Vice Chair Nancy Barr will become Acting Chair for a maximum of sixty days. During this sixty-day period, the Board will vote to install a new Chair for the remainder of the 2022-2023 legislative term.

Legislator Borgia will remain a member of the seventeen-member legislative body and continue her duty to the district to which she is duly elected.

Regardless of party affiliation, County Legislators worked together to protect Board staff, prioritize the Board’s important work, and restore integrity for the people of Westchester.
