A Message from Ralph J. Esposito, Town Supervisor:

Ralph J. Esposito, Town Supervisor
Welcome to our Website.

You will find that Gates is a progressive community with a population of almost 30,000 people. It is a town populated with warm, hardworking people who enjoy an excellent quality of life.

There are a number of projects in the planning stages, or actually underway, that are contributing to the ever-changing dynamics in this community. Webster's Dictionary defines renaissance as "to be born again" and that is certainly true of Gates. We have become a town that is vitally alive and heading in new directions, without sacrificing our past successes. Our high quality of life still only costs the average taxpayer approximately $1.82 per day. This town is, and will continue to be, a wonderful place to raise a family or operate a business.

As you tour this website, you will see many examples of the variety of services the Town of Gates provides for its' residents and its' businesses. If you would like any further information on town services or would like to meet any of the town officials, please feel free to stop in at the Town Hall or call (585) 247-6100.
