Elliot Raimondo
Elliot Raimondo is out as Jamestown’s Corporation Counsel.
Jamestown Mayor Kim Ecklund made the announcement to City Council Monday night.
She said while a new City Attorney won’t be starting until sometime in October, the position will be covered, “I certainly want to thank outside counsels that I’ve reached out to who are contributing and offering assistance, as well as the DA’s office in court. So we will be covered. There should not be any issues.”
Raimondo was appointed Corporation Counsel in January 2020 by former Mayor Eddie Sundquist. He also began serving as the City of Dunkirk’s part-time Corporation Counsel in January 2024. Raimondo is a partner with law offices, Raimondo and Sundquist LLP, in the city of Jamestown.
Elliot is too ethical, honest and dedicated to being a fantastic attorney. He doesn’t fit in with the current city administration; they are the very antithesis of what is needed.
Prime example of the vindictive nature Kim and her leadership or lack thereof.
Good conflict of interest right there,,I’m mayor hey you be legal counsel and a way we go!!!!!!!!!
