Kevin Veitch was re-elected for another two-year term earlier this month. Veitch begins his second term, having been originally elected to the office in 2022. Born and raised in Saratoga Springs, his childhood home was the now Olde Bryan Inn on Maple Ave. He’s held many varied occupations since his start as a young boy separating coat hangers at a Broadway boutique. He worked 11 years at the Saratoga Springs Housing Authority but spent the majority of his career at Saratoga Springs City Hall, where he served as code administrator for 22 years.

He served as a board member and then Executive Director of the Saratoga County Fair, the Gateway House of Peace and Caffé Lena. He currently serves on the First NY Federal Credit Union board. He worked with his two sons, Ryan and Jacob, to create Twin Leaf Farms, a 400-acre maple syrup business in Greenfield.

Veitch moved to Greenfield 25 years ago and spent 16 years on the ZBA Board and 4 years on the Town Board before being elected to Town Supervisor in 2021. When asked how long he has been married to Patti Wilsey Veitch, he quickly quipped “Not long enough.” The two have been married for 36 years, own a pug named Jackson and enjoy doting on their two grandkids. He also has been a bass player for 50 years.

Veitch is proud of the Town Board’s many accomplishments during his first term, including: expanding emergency services; updating technology and efficiency at Town Hall; restructuring the Building Department; building relationships with state and local leaders; improving Town facilities; and enchancing  communications. Next, he will focus on updating Town codes and hopes to move forward on the planning and building of a new Community Center. Veitch also spends about 10 hours a week on the seven Saratoga County committees of which he is a member.

Our Supervisor attends many of our Town events, including our TOG Social Hours and would love to meet you. He is also available to meet by appointment.
