Public may have commented on Greene County Jail proposals

Aug 31, 2017 4:11 am
Daniel Zuckerman reports for Columbia-Greene Media about a public hearing Aug. 29 at the Kiskatom Fire House about the the proposed new Greene County Jail that will cost at least $44 million and maybe much more. “Every other county has a jail and being from Greene County we have a jail that’s ours,” former Greene County Legislator Joseph Izzo of Catskill said. His town would lose the that jail if it moves to Coxsackie or if the county decides to share services with Columbia County. “We can’t afford to have taxpayers to pay for square-footage that won’t be used,” Catskill legislator Mike Bulich said. “With a little logistics planning, all the rooms can be used.” The story is about a public hearing for members of the public to comment but it included just one quote from a former legislator. Read the full story in HudsonValley360.com. (CORRECTION: Originally, the story said that no members of the public were quoted in the story, but Joseph Izzo is a former, not current, legislator.)
