With Jenkins leading as Deputy County Executive, Westchester focused on clean energy, installing solar panels on county buildings and EV charging stations in county parking lots.聽 Under the administration, the County has enrolled 20 municipalities in a food waste recycling program, undergone PFAS remediation at the county airport, and invested $30 million in flood mitigation. Jenkins also serves as a member of the Board of Directors for Sustainable Westchester. Westchester County is a bronze certified CSC community, and if elected, Jenkins intends to bring the county to an even higher certification.聽</span></p> <p> </p> <div class="candidate-social"><div class="candidate-social-inner"> <h3>Help Ken Get Elected</h3> <div id="candidate-socials" class="socials cf"><span class='st_fblike_hcount' displayText='Facebook Like'></span><span class='st_twitter_hcount' displayText='Tweet'></span><span class='st_facebook_hcount' displayText='Facebook'></span></div> </div></div> </div> </section> </article> </main> <div id="sidebar1" class="sidebar m-all t-1of3 d-2of7 last-col cf" role="complementary"> <div id="nav_menu-5" class="widget widget_nav_menu"><h4 class="widgettitle">Endorsements</h4><div class="menu-endorsements-sidebar-container"><ul id="menu-endorsements-sidebar" class="menu"><li id="menu-item-11758" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page menu-item-11758"><a href="https://nylcv.org/endorsements/">Endorsed Candidates</a></li> <li id="menu-item-191" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page menu-item-191"><a href="https://nylcv.org/elect/">Our Process</a></li> <li id="menu-item-194" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page menu-item-194"><a href="https://nylcv.org/?page_id=192">Past Endorsements</a></li> </ul></div></div><div id="about_nylcv_widget-3" class="widget widget_about_nylcv_widget"><h4 class="widgettitle"><img src="https://nylcv.org/wp-content/themes/nylcv/library/images/header-logo.png" /></h4><p>NYLCV is the only statewide environmental organization in New York that fights for clean water, clean air, renewable energy and open space through political action.
