Supervisor’s corner
The town of Warwick has been awarded grant funding for the replacement costs of the Jayne Street Bridge located in the village of Florida. The bridge, which was closed in 2018 by New York State for safety reasons, is and has been a top priority for this administration as well as the previous in the town of Warwick.
