The Montgomery County Commissioners held their final meeting of 2024 on December 19, where they reflected on community contributions and addressed upcoming plans. A poignant moment came when the commissioners expressed their condolences for the passing of Steve Cozen, a prominent local figure and founder of the Cozen O'Connor Law Firm. Cozen was recognized for his deep commitment to the community, particularly his support for the Jewish community and voting rights initiatives. He was recently honored with a Humanitarian Award and was involved in various local efforts, including a fellowship at Penn Law School focused on voting rights.
Commissioner Winder highlighted Cozen's impact, noting that he would be deeply missed by many in Montgomery County and the greater Philadelphia area. The meeting also served as a platform for the commissioners to thank the community for their partnership throughout the year, wishing everyone a happy holiday season.
Looking ahead, the commissioners announced that their next meeting will take place on January 9, 2025, at 10 AM in the boardroom. The meeting concluded with a motion to adjourn, marking the end of a year filled with community engagement and initiatives.
