2027 County Budget Hearing Set
The 2027 budget shape isn't public yet, but this hearing is where residents can influence it before adoption.
NY Connects and HIICAP services for seniors and disabled residents
County pays the $35/hour contract rate (plus $2/hour Mountain Top supplement); total cost depends on service hours used.
Agricultural District 124 Inclusion Requests
No direct cost to taxpayers identified — this is a procedural step to schedule the hearing and environmental review.
Greene County Office Building roof replacement
Full $741,839.69 paid from a roof reserve that was already built up, so no immediate tax hit.
Veterans Memorial Expansion at Catskill Point
$75,581.26 total, with $68,000 covered by endowment and paver sales and about $7,581 shifted from a miscellaneous county line.
Windham Transfer Station improvements
Total project cost is about $4.93 million, funded largely from county reserves.
Cairo Senior Center kitchen equipment purchase
$298,900 committed under Capital Project #161, but the award is on hold.
Sheriff's Authority to Execute Mandated Contracts
Costs are already built into the Sheriff's Office annual budget, so no new spending is attached.
Emergency Services Upgrades and Disaster Planning
Public damage assessments total just over $500,000, mostly culvert and road repairs; no federal disaster declaration threshold was met.
Public Health and Mental Health service agreements
No change to county funding — the same OASAS-funded services continue under the new organization.
Snow & Ice Control Supply Contracts
Per-ton prices ranging from $5.70 to $29.20 depending on product and delivery point; total seasonal cost depends on winter severity.
Delinquent Property Taxes Rising
Roughly $2 million less collected than last year — shortfalls can shift costs to other taxpayers.
Town of Halcott emergency medical funding
Windham's ambulance budget alone rises about $189,000 next year; the county gave mountaintop towns $190,000 this year and is being asked to maintain or increase that.
Verizon Copper Landline Discontinuation
Greene County Cultural Fund regranting increase
$3,000 shifted within the county budget to support the festival.
Full tax exemption for seriously disabled veterans
