Board meeting. Please join us in the pledge. Just a moment. Aye. Pledge of the plague. Which is one of the school with liberty. Roll call. Supervisor Wah. Here. Councilman McCarthy. Councilwoman Noick. Here. Councilwoman Anzarello. Here. Councilman Lowman. Yeah. Okay, before we begin our agenda today. Um proud to recognize one of the outstanding public servants who helped make the town of Smithtown such a special place to live, work, and raise a family. Each month we honor an employee whose dedication, professionalism, and character have made a meaningful impact on our community. Today it's my privilege to recognize Juliana Gomez, Senior Office Assistant at the Smithtown Senior Center. Juliana joined the senior center in June of 2025. An immediately demonstrated initiative, a willingness to learn, and a genuine desire to help others. The senior center front desk is a central point of contact for many programs and services. And Juliana handles a tremendous volume of calls while supporting our administrative staff, club leaders, transportation, meals on wheels, ICEP, disability services, and several other important programs. She took the time to learn about each service so she could provide accurate information, connect seniors with the right resources, and make sure every caller felt heard and cared for. Juliana is also one of the first friendly faces our seniors see each morning. She welcomes them, helps with grab and go meals, pickups, assists new members with registration, and steps in whenever her co-workers need support. What stands out most is the way she does it all with professionalism, patience, and a smile. For many of our seniors, the senior center is a place of friendship, independence, and community. Employees like Juliana are a big part of what makes it feel that way. On behalf of the entire town board and myself and the residents of the town of Smithtown, it's my privilege to recognize Juliana Gomez as our September exceptional public servant. Juliana, thank you for everything you do. Congratulations. Thank you so much. That's why don't go anywhere. Yeah, we have to have the flowers. Come on. I can. There we go. All right, there we go. One, two. All right. Juliana, thank you. Congratulations. Keep up the good work. Thank you. Thank you. Thanks. See you guys tomorrow. Yes.
