The two newly hired Village Court Justice Clerks were sworn into office at the October 20 Brockport Village Board meeting.
Village Justice William G. Andrews, Jr. administered the oath to clerk Lynette C. Lemcke and Village Justice Kent R. Blair administered the oath to clerk Corey L. Stepanek.
“You just made history,” Justice Blair told Stepanek upon completion of the oath.
The Village Court is not yet up and running. Justices still need to go through training which is planned later this year and Village Board members voted October 6 to reconfigure the Village Hall at 49 State Street to accommodate the court. Several locations had been considered. The Board has also authorized applying for a Justice Court Assistance Program Grant to help with the expense of the renovation work and court set-up.
