The interim label was finally removed from Laura Kavanagh’s title Thursday, as she was officially named the first female Fire Commissioner in New York City’s history.
Mayor Eric Adams swore Kavanagh in during an Oct. 27 ceremony that included First Deputy Mayor Lorraine Grillo, Deputy Mayors Meera Joshi, Maria Torres-Springer, Anne Williams-Isom and Sheena Wright and Police Commissioner Keechant Sewell.
