Upon taking office as CountyExecutive in 2004, Steve Levy pulled the county out of a $238 million projected deficit, crafting the largest budget restructuring plan in the county's history and cut his own salary. Steve Levy has presented six consecutive budgets, each with a General Fund tax freeze or tax cut--including three budgets with lower spending than the previous year's budget.

Under his leadership, the county has had six bond rating upgrades. Recognized for providing efficient government, SuffolkCounty has received fifty Innovation Awards by the National Association of Counties.
