Village of Airmont Appoints New Trustee

by M.C. Millman

Moshe Menachem Friedman has been appointed as Airmont's new Village Trustee after former Village Trustee Brian Downey pleaded guilty to a federal charge of illegally possessing an unregistered firearm obtained by mail in 2021. 

Friedman, who has been a member of the Airmont planning board, is now the third frum Jew on Airmont's four-member governing board of trustees, . 

"I am known as a unifier," Friedman tells Rockland Daily, "and I want to keep it that way and work for people and make sure the Village stays as it is and everyone is happy. I am always here to listen and amend any issues."
