Daniel Zuckerman is reporting for Columbia-Greene Media lawmakers from Greene and Columbia counties met with Columbia-Greene Community College President Jim Campion Tue., Jun. 8, to discuss capital improvements at the Greenport campus. Campion reviewed the master plan submitted to the college Board of Trustees in June that addressed the lifespan of the campus facilities, structure of the roofs, and the fire alarm and security systems. Major projects include replacing the roof of the main campus building, and installing a new heating, ventilation and air conditioning system, Campion said.
