Mike Spano

Mike Spano is running for re-election for Mayor of Yonkers. Since he was elected in 2011, Spano created the City’s first Office of Sustainability and Yonkers was the first in the state to replace its streetlights with LED bulbs, resulting in an annual reduction in carbon emissions of 3,000 tons. He is committed to expanding access to parks and the waterfront, and recently acquired land to build the first waterfront park in southwest Yonkers. If elected, Spano plans to reinforce bold initiatives to manage climate change by reducing energy consumption, increasing the scope of recycling programs, and more.
