“Both Commissioner Marinucci and Director Blackwell have been invaluable assets to my administration and to the county, serving with distinction and leading their departments in exemplary fashion. Their work has a tremendous positive impact on our community and they are richly deserving of this recognition,” said Erie County Executive Mark C.
