New NYC Deputy Mayor Lives and Votes in Peekskill

Mayor Eric Adams’ latest pick for deputy mayor for operations still lives in Westchester and was running for a county seat as recently as February, records show, although it’s required to be a New York City resident to have the job.

Jeffrey Roth, who has worked for the city’s Department of Veterans Services and the fire department and also served in Army National Guard, announced Feb. 20 that he planned to run for a seat on the Westchester County Board of Legislators, district one.

The seat represents Cortlandt, Yorktown and Peekskill, where voter and other records show Roth still lives.

He told the Peekskill Herald last month that he moved to the Westchester city in 2021.
