Kennedy said the agenda listed a “request for expression of interest for waste to energy planned for Sullivan County” as under review and asked whether the county had requested proposals for non‑burning alternatives. She said previous briefings to the legislature had described health risks associated with burning waste. “I’d like to ask, please, where is the request for proposal for the non‑burning trash options that are out there?” Kennedy asked. She said the public and legislators should be fully informed about alternative technologies before the county solicits burning‑based proposals.

Kennedy also raised the corporate‑compliance function, saying the committee itself had not reported to the legislature as its bylaws require. “I do not recall a single instance of that happening in the last four years that I’ve attended these meetings,” she said, urging clearer reporting and independent investigations of complaints.

A county official responding during the meeting said there is active work within the county’s Office of Management and Budget to consider moving the corporate‑compliance function and to change how the work is structured. The official said that work is underway and that the county is reviewing current arrangements.

The legislature did not take immediate action on either public comment; staff follow‑up and further committee consideration were indicated.

Kennedy requested that any RFP process include an evaluation of non‑incineration alternatives and asked for assurance that corporate‑compliance investigations would be independent and reported to the legislature.","A public commenter pressed the legislature to obtain corporate‑compliance reports and asked whether non‑incineration alternatives were considered in a request for expressions of interest for a waste‑to‑energy project; a county official said work is underway to change corporate‑compliance reporting arrangements.",{"_33":85,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":86,"_41":87,"_43":88,"_45":89,"_46":90,"_48":91,"_50":92,"_52":93,"_54":55,"_56":57,"_58":94,"_60":61,"_62":63,"_64":95,"_66":67,"_68":69,"_70":67,"_71":72,"_73":72},6682854,"County clerk reports spike in mortgage and passport activity, notes staffing turnover",107,180000,287140,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2247847-6813c86867c06d11fc07f80f2a72403b&start=180&end=287","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2247847-6813c86867c06d11fc07f80f2a72403b/thumbnail_180000.jpg","/articles/6682854/Sullivan-County/New-York/County-clerk-reports-spike-in-mortgage-and-passport-activity-notes-staffing-turnover","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6682854-904b95847cd6609036a764ccdc45f800/orig.mp4?Expires=1771122225&Signature=U7LhmbLo3vcfoE27c6sSjwX-J08xZZ1jNMFoLRl4ftmiuAaQBuZ88-f8rnKpl2tRjNqz0nB2hyZBNA78L3WzSagVEnEGjbZ5bJUyTR09nM7vm~vzx-IONRdsIK~r5BDtqtUuNPZpfNESptKJjHVq0m061G2P0t03uobziIOTBoCUaP3J0hcA~IwuypRhD7Nf6gJnU2yJ-h~QyqBlM9JFvfyQSYeFad~jXV4azVBUEGIuAyxDfaOA5gWdRawZWPt0pyEOyGo0r73AjuUI5fixw6x23z6YOEnAsBFCSo6anVDTM1~J-s-OlKPRwuxdzeymvNNQ0n1ZK8aKK7JW4Tf~NA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Sullivan County Clerk Russell reported to the legislature that the clerk’s office has seen a marked rise in recorded mortgages, passport applications and other transaction revenues month‑to‑month.

Russell said February revenue sharing to the county showed a large increase compared with the prior year. “If you look at February, we’re double this February than the previous year,” he said, and he later described a 431% increase in a particular revenue‑sharing line item tied to legislative changes the county clerk association pursued with the state. He said online transactions — where many routine DMV tasks are now completed — have grown and that the office is receiving a higher share of online fees.

The clerk said the office’s growing online workload has meant more complex cases appearing in person: “Every transaction seems to be a difficult transaction,” he said, citing title problems and filing errors submitted by some dealers and third parties. He said the office frequently acts as a problem‑solver for residents and other agencies, correcting filings and guiding people through missing or inconsistent source documents.

Russell reminded residents that full‑service mobile DMV visits are available in Liberty, Grahamsville, Jeffersonville and Bloomingburg, and that the county’s mobile van has been helpful reaching residents in those communities. He also reiterated the state deadline for Real ID/enhanced licenses as May 7 and explained the enhanced license requires a longer in‑office process because additional source documents are verified.

Russell said the clerk’s office recently recorded an uptick in passports and other services, and thanked staff for handling the volume. He also noted recent retirements and the loss of institutional knowledge: one longtime employee, Dorothy, will retire after 39 years, and the clerk said the department’s HR team is assisting with transition planning.

The clerk closed by asking for patience from the public and said the office will continue to triage and resolve complex title and identity issues.

No formal actions on clerk staffing or policy were taken during the meeting.","County Clerk reported a large increase in recorded mortgages and state revenue‑sharing for February, a rise in online DMV transactions, mobile DMV locations and staff retirements; clerk urged patience with complex title and ID issues.",{"_33":97,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":98,"_41":42,"_43":99,"_45":99,"_46":100,"_48":101,"_50":102,"_52":103,"_54":55,"_56":57,"_58":104,"_60":61,"_62":63,"_64":105,"_66":67,"_68":69,"_70":67,"_71":72,"_73":72},6682858,"SUNY Sullivan outlines nursing program growth after $1.09 million transformation grant",1578000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2247847-6813c86867c06d11fc07f80f2a72403b&start=1578&end=1578","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2247847-6813c86867c06d11fc07f80f2a72403b/thumbnail_1578000.jpg","/articles/6682858/Sullivan-County/New-York/SUNY-Sullivan-outlines-nursing-program-growth-after-109-million-transformation-grant","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6682858-8973f558d13322d8fd546b05503d791d/orig.mp4?Expires=1771122225&Signature=bnk~mCbmAFaW~wRux0p8qhjMAZL8mg7REedApbrNmspv24x1-Ym3qz0B073WuklCotO~0T~lBTaE2ziWfLNt7A8BS4Me-KaDlRbfYnSrBNEJqeIYtW-TVU80or2gnR0kc7nglBYLdZwLB75aICfTRYPxZ1EfVFotne2aXN5tfMNchmxaukpmztgJlcIZ59X-f6n-M-OoiZYEO9-piWdGi-x3dAp1RS2m1nhTM6fUIlbz2KOrQnT8XjMMN0HRhAglRamcaG~Q-N~nUf03LC0bA3-WlxRq2SyW1RbPOV-s27FlFK8~9deBPAFcq6Osq9IUcQ~pidy4zNWelIKc3Rqg2g__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Dr. Charisse Taylor, director of the nursing programs at SUNY Sullivan, told the legislature on Friday that the college’s nursing program currently enrolls 65 students across three cohorts — two daytime cohorts and one evening cohort — and that the college has received three grants this year to expand training capacity.

Taylor said SUNY’s Transformation Grant totaled $1,090,000 for SUNY Sullivan, with $780,000 of that directed specifically to the nursing program. She said the college also received a “High Need Simulation Grant” to upgrade simulation labs and a Mother Cabrini Health Care grant to supplement nursing faculty salaries and benefits. “We received several grants for the nursing program,” Taylor said. “That $780,000 came specifically to the nursing program.”

Taylor outlined how the program is organized: a senior daytime cohort, another daytime cohort and an evening cohort whose classes and lab work run approximately 6 p.m.–9 p.m. and clinical shifts that can extend into the evening. She said the evening schedule and offering of prerequisites and co‑requisites at night enable working adults to enter the program.

Taylor also described new and upcoming offerings approved by the New York State Education Department and SUNY: a certified nursing assistant program beginning in spring, an accelerated LPN‑to‑RN cohort beginning in May and a summer NCLEX review boot camp for graduates who have not yet passed the licensing exam. On outcomes, Taylor reported an 81% pass rate on the NCLEX, which she described as “above the threshold.”

Taylor described the LPN‑to‑RN option as an accelerated pathway: LPNs can take a challenge exam administered by the National League for Nursing to validate prior LPN learning and skills, potentially shortening the time to an RN credential. She said the accelerated LPN cohort will be offered in a compressed schedule to accommodate work schedules.

College leadership also briefed the legislature on broader workforce and program planning. Legislators said the college is exploring additional health‑care training, including medical imaging curricula, and seeking to scale allied health, respiratory care and medical assistant programs. SUNY Sullivan is participating in a Carnegie Corporation pilot on sustainability and is expanding outreach events and summer offerings. Taylor said the college is monitoring a state proposal to expand free community college eligibility for adults age 25–55 and is preparing scenarios in case the proposal advances in the state budget process.

The college said officials are tracking enrollment and retention: retention of fall cohorts into spring is above 70% overall, and some targeted programs — for example, an Equal Opportunity Program cohort — reported 100% retention. Taylor said the college is expanding supports intended to help students complete degrees and certificates, and noted the college’s recent work on simulation lab upgrades and faculty supports funded by grants.

Taylor closed by encouraging prospective students to consider the evening and accelerated offerings, stressing flexibility for working adults and the college’s efforts to provide prerequisites and co‑requisites in the evening so that employed students can advance without leaving jobs.

The college presentation was followed by a brief exchange with legislators and a recognition of SUNY Sullivan’s partnerships with local providers. No formal action or vote on college programs was taken during the session.","Dr. Charisse Taylor told the Sullivan County Legislature the nursing program at SUNY Sullivan has 65 students, received three grants this year and will add new cohorts and certificate options, including a certified nursing assistant class and an accelerated LPN-to-RN pathway.","actionData","errors"]
