Top issues during term (14)(Public Safety)
Coroner's Office staffing and sustainability crisis
Taxpayers are funding an interim coroner, two deputies, a new administrative position, and now a per-call contract for the former coroner.
Corrections Officers Labor Contract
Any new contract terms will affect county personnel costs, but no figures are available yet.
Eviction prevention and Code Blue shelter funding
Funded by state grant revenue, not new county tax dollars.
Public Safety and Victims Services Grants
Grant-funded; no new county tax dollars beyond the required matches, which were not detailed.
Cellular Coverage Gaps in the Adirondacks
Funding for recommended new towers has not yet been identified.
Sheriff and public safety staffing
These positions add to county payroll, though many are backfills of existing posts.
Disposable vape waste and illegal nicotine products
Fire risks and disposal costs from vape batteries could add expenses for local waste facilities.
Public Health Department updates
A state grant can't be used for infrastructure, limiting how the county can spend it.
Overdose intervention grant acceptance
State grant funding covers the program, offsetting local costs.
Zone 9 Police Academy Launch
Deputy coroner coverage
No added cost for now — it reallocates existing coroner pay until a new coroner is appointed.
Recognition of South Plattsburgh Fire Department volunteers
Anti-harassment policy update
Veterans peer-to-peer support program
Grant-funded with a corresponding county revenue appropriation.
