On New Year’s Day, the Lloyd Town Board will go through the age-old tradition of swearing in its newest members during a special ceremony at the firehouse. In this case, election winners Paul Hansut, Herb Litts III and Mike Guerriero will take their seats next to Jeff Paladino and Kevin Brennie.

Already the new supervisor has had one thing in mind -- what every other town supervisor does. “We’re all talking about the same thing with shared services,” Hansut explained.
