Mayor Kelly at the Helm

By Joseph Ogden, Deputy Mayor of Saratoga Springs, 2014-2016 | Letters to the Editor

In her first two years as mayor, Meg Kelly has proved to be one of the best leaders our city has seen in recent memory.

In addition to her numerous accomplishments, Mayor Kelly’s leadership has created an atmosphere in City Hall that is both productive and respectful. City Council meetings are professional and efficient, largely absent of the personal and political rancor that spoiled so many other Tuesday evenings in the recent past.

She has assembled a top-notch team in her office and - along with DPW and the other commissioners - has adroitly presided over the rehabilitation of City Hall since it was struck by lightning in 2018.  Saratogians should reward Mayor Kelly by inviting her to stay at the helm for two more years. 

- Joseph Ogden, Deputy Mayor of Saratoga Springs, 2014-2016
