KINGSTON – Incoming Ulster County Executive Jen Metzger is supporting the county legislature’s choice of a site in New Paltz to construct a county emergency services center.
Metzger said the facility is “absolutely necessary” and it will be built in a good location.
“This is an investment we need. It’s a hardened facility and it’s essential to keep our community safe. So, I think that everyone recognized that in the legislature and I’m excited that I will be in a position to be working on this project and see it through to its development,” she said.
The legislature chose the site over constructing it at the Golden Hill location of the former county jail in Kingston.
