On May 7, 1817, the Board of Trustees of the newly incorporated Village of Rochesterville met for the first time at Lebbeus Elliot’s Tavern. They appointed Francis Brown president of the board and Joseph Spencer village clerk. Over the next few weeks, the board continued to fill vacancies in the new government while contemplating the village's first bylaws.
The City of Rochester, in collaboration with the United Christian Leadership Ministry of Western NY Inc., led by Reverend Lewis W. Stewart III, is currently recruiting volunteers to serve on the Civilian Public Safety Interview Panel. This is in accordance with NYS Executive Order 203 Police Reform and Reinvention Collaborative and the City of Rochester’s community response. This initiative is to increase community engagement in the City of Rochester's hiring process for prospective police officers.
GIS is a powerful mapping tool used for asset management, data visualization, and spatial analytics. The Department of Information Technology manages the City's GIS Platform, providing a common platform for all city departments.

Today, there is a growing awareness that some homes have lead in their water pipes, fixtures and plumbing.
To reduce exposure to lead in drinking water, the City of Rochester has developed a lead service line replacement program with the intent to replace all lead services. Lead presents health concerns for people of all ages, particularly pregnant women, infants and young children.
The surest way to protect against lead in water is to get the lead out altogether!
