Assemblyman David DiPietro (R,C-East Aurora) recently helped celebrate the service of many of the town of Concord’s former elected officials.

“These extraordinary individuals served their community and helped to make Concord a better place. I was more than happy to thank them for their service, on behalf of our mutual constituents, and to commemorate and celebrate their dedicated years in local government,” DiPietro said.

The event was held at Papa Jacks Saloon in Springfield and honored former Deputy Town Clerk Beth Bolt (1979-1981, 1982-2011); former Concord Town Supervisor Ron Wendel (1986-1993); former Concord Town Councilman Bob Kauffman (1993-1997); and former Highway Superintendent Phil Drozd (1993-1997).
