End of an Era: Assemblyman Ken Zebrowski announces he will not be seeking re-Election in interview with Lohud.

Kenneth Paul Zebrowski, is a lifelong Rockland resident and a Member of the New York State Assembly representing the 96th District in Rockland County. He was first elected in a special election on May 1, 2007, and was re-elected in 2022 to his 9th term. The Zebrowski family have been involved in Rockland County politics for decades with Ken Zebrwoski Sr. serving over 20 years in the Rockland Legislature and getting elected to the State Assembly in 2004 for a two-year term (2005–2007).

Ken lives in the Town of Clarkstown with his wife, Clare, a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, daughter Reagan, son Kenneth Patrick, and daughter Norah. He graduated from Clarkstown Schools before receiving his Bachelor of Arts, Magna cum Laude, in Political Science from the State University of New York at Albany and his Juris Doctor degree from the Seton Hall University School of Law. He previously served in the Rockland County Legislature.

“It has been a profound honor to serve as a member of the N.Y.S. Assembly for the past seventeen years. I want to thank the residents of Rockland County for the privilege of fighting for them and representing our neighborhoods during these nine terms. I am proud of my statewide legislative record and what I have delivered locally for Rockland County, but I certainly did not do it alone. I would not be here without the family, friends and volunteers that helped me deliver a positive and substantive message and the voters who put their faith in me. I’m also thankful to my colleagues, staff and public policy partners for their friendship and collaboration on so many issues. While it is time for a new chapter in my career, I intend to stay active locally and in New York State. Serving in State Government is an amazing responsibility and every day I strived to execute the job with the seriousness and professionalism it deserves.” said Assemblyman Ken Zebrowski.

Ken has served as chair for several committees in the Assembly, including Banks and Governmental Operations, and currently chairs the Committee on Corporations, Authorities and Commissions. He also serves as Chair of the Task Force on Demographic Research and Reapportionment, which oversees the reapportionment process for Senate, Assembly and Congressional districts.

CLARKSTOWN, NY — Beginning with the new tax season on September 1, the Clarkstown Town Clerk’s Office will offer residents a new and convenient way to receive updates about their tax bills directly by text message.

Town Clerk Lauren Marie Wohl announced that residents can opt in to the service by texting “TAXINFO” to 845-644-6899.

Once a resident’s tax bill is ready, those enrolled will receive a text message containing a link. Residents can then enter their property address to view their tax bill and, if they choose, make a payment online.

The new text notification system does not replace traditional mailed tax bills. Residents who sign up for the service will continue to receive their regular tax bill in the mail. The text alerts are intended to provide an additional and more convenient way for residents to know when their bills are available and access their information.

“Residents asked for a simpler way to receive tax bill information, and I’m proud that we were able to make it happen,” Wohl said.

Residents with questions about the new service can contact the Clarkstown Town Clerk’s Office at 845-639-2010.

Flock cameras have become an increasingly debated topic across the country, including here in Rockland County.

Flock cameras are automated license plate readers used by law enforcement to capture license plates and vehicle characteristics as vehicles pass by. Police can use the information to assist with investigations, including locating stolen vehicles, identifying vehicles associated with wanted suspects, helping find missing people and developing leads following crimes.

One of the cameras pictured is located outside The Shops at Nanuet in Clarkstown. A graphic from the website DeFlock also shows reported camera locations throughout the area.

Supporters say the technology can give police an important investigative tool and help solve crimes more quickly. Critics, however, have raised concerns about privacy and the collection of information about where people drive, even when they are not suspected of committing a crime.

The debate ultimately comes down to a question of public safety versus privacy.

What do you think? Are Flock cameras a valuable tool for law enforcement, or are they an intrusion on your privacy?
