Ulster County Executive Pat Ryan announced last week the re-launch of the county’s Mobile County Government Initiative after a hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The initiative takes County Government on the road and brings resources directly to residents twice a month through a 5-region approach to scheduling across Ulster County. Part of County Executive Ryan’s “Responsive and Responsible Government” initiative, Mobile County Government is a first of its kind program that improves access to essential government services while giving the County a better understanding of local concerns.
The Spring 2022 5-Region Schedule is 10 a.m. - 3:30 p.m. at the following dates and locations:
• April 11: Marlborough Highway/Water Department, 1650 Route 9W in Milton
• May 6: Shandaken Town Hall, 7209 Route 28 in Shandaken
• May 26: New Paltz Community Center, 3 Veterans Drive in New Paltz
• June 8: Warwarsing Town Hall, 108 Canal Street in Ellenville
• June 24: Shawangunk Town Hall, 14 Central Avenue in Wallkill
“As Supervisor of the Town of Marlborough, I’m happy to be the first Town to host the re-launch of Ulster County’s Mobile County Government. This is a convenient way for the public to access County services close to home. Having greater access to our local Government and its representatives is a win-win for the Town of Marlborough and its citizens,” Town of Marlborough Supervisor Scott Corcoran said. “ I hope everyone utilizes this convenient way of accessing County services. It will be a great addition to the already highly successful DMV mobile bus and a great example of local Government working for you.”
Mobile County Government will provide services from the County Clerk’s Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) van. In addition to vehicle registration and licenses, residents will have access to representatives from human service departments such as:
• Department of Social Services
• Office for the Aging
• Veterans Services
• Office of Employment and Training
• Office of Economic Development
• Mobile Office Hours with the Exec’s Office
The seasonal 5-Region Schedule of upcoming Mobile County Government sessions will be shared on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter @UlsterNY.
