I would like to take this opportunity to thank the residents of the New Hyde Park Fire District for their support in the Fire Commissioner election on Dec 9. It is both an honor and a privilege to be able to serve the community as a Fire Commissioner for the next five years. I am most grateful to the support given me by my fellow Commissioners as well as the chiefs, officers, and members of the New Hyde Park Fire Department. During my campaign, I met so many residents of our Fire District and listened to your opinions and shared your concerns. I look forward to challenges of the next five years as the Board of Fire Commissioners strives to keep our fire district at the forefront in firefighting excellence.

Thank you again for the tremendous support and Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, Happy New Year to you and your families

John Divello, Fire Commissioner
