NYS Association Of Fire Chiefs Elects Anthony Laferrera As New President

On August 3rd, 2024, the Babylon Town Board gathered to celebrate Anthony LaFerrera, affectionately known as “Laff,” for his election as President of the NYS Association of Fire Chiefs council. Remarkably, he’s just the second person

of Babylon Fire Officials Association, and the Fire Chiefs’ Council of Suffolk County. He has also been a member of the Suffolk County Fire and Rescue Services Commission since 2003 and is a retired FDNY EMS lieutenant. Councilman and Public

August 3rd, 2024, the Babylon Town Board gathered

Anthony LaFerrera, affectionately known as “Laff,” for his election as

Fire Chiefs council. Remarkably, he’s just the second

from the Town of Babylon to hold this position since the association’s inception in 1904.

Safety Chairman Terence McSweeney congratulated Chief LaFerrera on this accomplishment adding he has known him for most of his adult life and that “Laff” is a major reason why he pursued joining the North Babylon Fire Co. and also a career as a NYC Firefighter with the FDNY.

Supervisor Rich Schaffer also added he has known Chief LaFerrera for many years and could not think of a better person to represent the New York State volunteer firefighters. “He has dedicated a lifetime to public service, and we are very proud to stand with him today and recognize this great accomplishment.”
