State Senator Patty Ritchie recently stopped in to welcome newly appointed Ogdensburg City Manager John Pinkerton to City Hall.

Mr. Pinkerton began his duties earlier this week, and shares a building with Senator Ritchie's St. Lawrence County Senate District office, which is located in the basement of Ogdensburg’s City Hall. A year and a half ago, Senator Ritchie opened the first St. Lawrence County Senate office in more than half a century.
