A Message From The Mayor's Office |
|
Our office extends a warm welcome to Sara Gorfinkel, who joins the Town of Berlin as an Executive Assistant to the Mayor with over twenty years of nonprofit and philanthropic foundation professional experience. Sara has volunteered regularly with the Office of Economic and Community Development in Berlin’s Welcome Center and is thrilled to be bringing her love and appreciation for this special town to the administrative needs of the Office of the Mayor.
One way our office would like to connect to constituents is to “Meet with the Mayor” out in town. Mayor Zack and his assistant, Sara, will be available to connect regarding issues on your mind in a more casual and informal way than an official town meeting. Our first meeting is scheduled for Thursday, June 22, 8:30-10:00 am at On What Grounds, 103 North Main Street. Please stop by and bring us your thoughts and interests on behalf of Berlin over a cup of coffee.
