The ceremony began with Superintendent of Highways Bart Gordon, followed by Town Clerk Raquel Ventura, and Town Justice Yvonne Santos.
Also sworn in were Town Councilman Isidro Papocancel and Town Supervisor Howard Phillips. Town Councilman Vincent Gambole was unable to attend the ceremony due to a family commitment and is expected to be sworn in at a later date.
