Welcome to the Town Supervisor

We hope you find our website helpful and an extension of how the Town will serve you better.

Cornwall has much to offer!

Our community is one of the safest Towns in the Country with top ranked schools, many recreational and social opportunities for children, families, seniors, and individuals.  We are surrounded by the Hudson River, Moodna Creek, the Hudson Highlands and prioritize balanced growth with a focus on preserving open space, walkability, creating new parks and protecting our natural resources.

Our Town government, Town employees, and the numerous community and civic organizations that serve our neighborhoods, are vital to keeping our Town vibrant and thriving!

It is my sincere hope that you will share in my vision for continuing to make Cornwall a great place to live, work, raise a family and open a business! As always, I welcome your comments and suggestions. Please reach out to my office or any of the Town’s Departments should you need assistance.

Sincerely,
Joshua Wojehowski
Supervisor
