A Statement from Mayor James Schoenig on the passing of Joe Cotter, President of National Resources:

We are all incredibly devastated by the unexpected passing of the creative mind behind iPark Brewster, Joe Cotter. He saw the untapped potential in the Village of Brewster and believed that the Village would be a leader in 21st-century trans-orientated development. He truly captured the Village Board’s vision of the Urban Renewal Project, and we hope to continue his legacy in a way that would make him proud. On behalf of all Village residents, I share my sincerest condolences to his family and friends, especially his partner, Lynne Ward, and all the employees of National Resources. His impact on this Village and our lives will be remembered and appreciated for years to come.
