Happy First Day of Spring!

 

Cherry Blossoms from Harbor Island Park

Tonight at 11:50pm, Spring arrives! Special thanks to a member of our Village Parks & Recreation Department for sharing the above photo of the cherry blossoms in Harbor Island Park. Yes, the playgrounds are closed. But remember our beautiful Village has plenty of large, green open spaces to enjoy (all safely and while maintaining all "social distancing" protocols).

The 2020 Census is Here!

The 2020 Census is happening now. You can respond online, by phone or by mail. And your response matters. Health clinics. Fire departments. Schools. Even roads and highways. The census can shape many different aspects of our Mamaroneck community. So please, take the time now (while you're home) to complete the questionnaire you received in the mail. You may receive multiple mailings from the Census Bureau in March and April, including an invitation to respond to the 2020 Census and follow-up postcards and letters. When responding online to the 2020 Census, you will be prompted to enter your unique Census ID. This ID number acts like a PIN and can be found on the Census Bureau invitation to respond. All Census IDs have 12 characters (letters and numbers). Want to know what to look for in the mail? Click here.

The Village of Mamaroneck has put together a Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) webpage with information for residents that brings together resources from our partners in the community (Mamaroneck School District and Rye Neck School District) as well as from the County, State, and Federal levels of government.
