The announcement was followed by the reading of letters from various business owners, a Clergy of Pawling’s Village as well as Butch Anderson, Dutchess County’s Sheriff. Mr Liffland’s dedication and 25 years of public service were highlighted as well as his personal investment in buildings in need of renovation in the village.
