Westchester County Proposition 2024-1 - A Unanimously Approved, Bi-Partisan Proposal

The Westchester County Board of Legislators is proposing an amendment to extend legislative terms from two to four years while preserving the existing 12-year term limits. Known as Westchester County Proposition 2024-1, this change would align Westchester County with 70% of other counties in the state that have already adopted longer terms.

This amendment is designed to better serve today’s voters by enabling Legislators to concentrate on policy rather than politics. With term limits firmly established, Legislators can dedicate themselves to the work they were elected to do, instead of campaigning every other year.
