From the Office of New York State Senate Candidate Julie Killian


Apr. 4, 2018:  New York State Senate candidate Julie Killian made the following statement regarding the New York State budget:

"The New York State budget for the 2018-2019 fiscal year was passed Friday night [March 31], on time and within the state spending cap. In addition to blocking the Assembly's $2 billion in higher taxes and making adjustments to the tax code to protect New Yorkers from some of the changes on the federal level, it included Senate-led provisions to protect workers from sexual harassment in the workplace and added additional funding to address Lyme disease and the opioid epidemic. The budget negotiations also yielded a bill that will keep guns out of the hands of domestic abusers, which is a good start on common-sense gun safety measures."

Killian will run on the Republican, Conservative, and Reform Party lines in the special election for New York State Senate District 37 on April 24. Senate District 37 comprises the towns and municipalities of Armonk, Bedford, Bronxville, Crestwood, Eastchester, Harrison, Katonah, Larchmont, Mamaroneck, North Castle, New Rochelle, Port Chester, Rye City, Rye Brook, Tuckahoe, White Plains, and Yonkers.

Bronxville Overview

Bronxville is a quaint village (one square mile) located just 16 miles north of midtown Manhattan (roughly 30 minutes on the train) and has a population of approximately 6,500. It is known as a premier community with an excellent public school (K-12) and easy access to Manhattan. Bronxville offers many amenities including an attractive business district, a hospital (Lawrence Hospital), public paddle and tennis courts, fine dining at local restaurants, two private country clubs and a community library.

While the earliest settlers of Bronxville date back to the first half of the 18th century, the history of the modern suburb of Bronxville began in 1890 when William Van Duzer Lawrence purchased a farm and commissioned the architect, William A. Bates, to design a planned community of houses for well-known artists and professionals that became a thriving art colony. This community, now called Lawrence Park, is listed on the National register of Historic Places and many of the homes still have artists’ studios. A neighborhood association within Lawrence Park called “The Hilltop Association” keeps this heritage alive with art shows and other events for neighbors.

Bronxville offers many charming neighborhoods as well as a variety of living options for residents including single family homes, town houses, cooperatives and condominiums. One of the chief benefits of living in “the village” is that your children can attend the Bronxville School.

The Bronxville postal zone (10708, known as “Bronxville PO”) includes the village of Bronxville as well as the Chester Heights section of Eastchester, parts of Tuckahoe and the Lawrence Park West, Cedar Knolls, Armour Villa and Longvale sections of Yonkers. Many of these areas have their own distinct character. For instance, the Armour Villa section has many historic homes and even has its own newsletter called “The Villa Voice” which reports on neighborhood news.
