Founded in 1683, the County of Suffolk is over 300 years old. For 200 years, it was run by a board of ten supervisors, one for each town in the county. Now, however, we celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Suffolk County Legislature. Each person will stay on the legislature for the next two years, as part of the body that governs the people of Suffolk. During this celebration, we watch the swearing in of two new legislators, Tom Cilmi and Tom Muratore.
