Westchester County Executive Launches “Ask Astorino On Tape” | Katonah Real Estate

-
Over the past year Westchester County Executive Rob Astorino has visited 22 municipalities across the country for “Ask Astorino” town hall meetings. This week he released a new video highlighting some of the most frequently asked questions of the meetings.
“It’s not always easy to find the time to attend a town hall meeting,” said Astorino. “This video is an alternate way to find out how county government is working for you. I welcome your feedback.”
Hundreds of Westchester County residents have attended the town hall meetings, where Astorino has addressed topics such as taxes, housing, Playland andcrime. In the new video, Astorino addresses topics such as the role of the county government, his efforts to reduce taxes and promote business, and his motivations for running for county executive. He highlights accomplishments such as reducing the budget from $1.8 billion to $1.7 billion, and how the county dealt with Hurricane Sandy. It also includes scenes of his home life as he takes viewers through a typical day in his life.
“I’m still in awe of what this job is and what it means,” Astorino, who is running for re-election in November, says in the video.

Top 20 real estate websites in June | Mount Kisco Real Estate

Last year, Realtor.com and Yahoo Real Estate battled it out for the top position in the monthly real estate website rankings maintained by Web metrics firm Experian Hitwise . So far this year, Zillow has been king of the hill, having bumped Yahoo Real Estate from the top spot in March. Jockeying for the spots below first place has also been fierce, with Trulia jumping two positions into second place on the Hitwise list in June. Trulia leapfrogged over third-place Realtor.com, bumping Yahoo Real Estate into third place in the process. AOL Real Estate, meanwhile, moved up two positions from May to June, but there were no new websites in the top 10.
