This resolution honors Jerry Fiorini upon his retirement after 45 years of dedicated service to the Oneida County Board of Legislators, recognizing his exemplary leadership and significant contributions to his community and New York State.

He was a key advocate for economic development, instrumental in initiatives like the transfer of the County Airport, the development of a program at Mohawk Valley Community College, and the expansion of major regional projects. Fiorini also championed fiscal responsibility, contributing to 13 consecutive years without a county tax increase, and supported public libraries, safety programs, and his hometown of Rome. Beyond his public service, he had a successful career coaching baseball and football, earning induction into the Rome Sports Hall of Fame, and remained involved in youth sports. The resolution acknowledges his lifelong commitment to uplifting his community and leaving a legacy of public service.
