MAYOR MARY E. ADAMS
Experience matters. Named a trustee in 2016, Mayor Mary Adams has been at the forefront of many beautification efforts, such as the Argyle Falls restoration program, community programs, such as the Babylon Block Party, and much more.
As the owner of 21 Century Fine Homes on Montauk Highway, Mayor Adams has been a member of the Babylon Village Chamber of Commerce for many years and knows what it takes to run a small business. When the COVID-19 pandemic shuttered businesses, Mayor Scordino and Trustee Adams worked closely with New York State and Suffolk County to relay important information to business owners across the village and develop safe reopening plans that followed state-mandated guidance.
As mayor, Mary Adams will be the leader that our community needs as we navigate the remainder of the COVID-19 pandemic while upholding the standards set by Mayor Scordino.
