Amber (Delcovery project staff) said the app is available on Android and iOS and integrates a county website and social-media presence. \"We do not require any kind of login. There is no information that we're collecting about individual people,\" Amber said, adding that the team will track anonymized usage metrics such as downloads and QR-code scans to measure uptake.

Why it matters: Delcovery centralizes contact, location and service information for providers and residents, including naloxone distribution sites, food pantries, hospitals and law enforcement links. Project staff said the launch is intended to make county resources easier to find for people in recovery and for residents seeking general services.

Project staff demonstrated the app's map and resource filters and noted printed materials for distribution: business-card QR codes, postcards, posters for concentrated-service villages (Delhi, Margaretville, Sidney, Walton) and a larger county map pending delivery. Amber said staff will keep the database current through quarterly reviews and more frequent updates as needed.

Funding and partnerships: a presenter said the project was funded through opioid settlement money. The team explained the county is discussing expanded integrations for future phases, including transportation information with GetThere and outreach to neighboring counties. Staff said a one-year grant funds current operations and they are preparing a proposal to continue funding in the next year.

Board and staff reaction: Supervisors and staff said they have begun downloading the app and that the project team will meet with school superintendents, town boards and nonprofit partners to increase adoption and gather feedback. Project staff asked board members to provide suggestions for additional resources to include.

Ending: Staff said Delcovery is now live on the App Store and Google Play and invited the public and partner agencies to test and provide feedback.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Board of Supervisors Meeting 04 23 2025","oneSentenceSummary","County staff announced the public launch of \"Delcovery,\" a free mobile app and integrated web resource mapping health, recovery and county services, funded by opioid settlement money and maintained quarterly.","taxTitle","Delaware County, New York","taxId",76398,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":42,"_43":78,"_45":79,"_47":80,"_49":81,"_51":82,"_53":83,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":84,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":85,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6490836,"Delaware County sheriff highlights staffing, jail boarding revenue and public-safety programs in annual report",893000,1592000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5590760-603cd56399cedf8c1c1faa7db718a80c&start=893&end=1592","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5590760-603cd56399cedf8c1c1faa7db718a80c/thumbnail_893000.jpg","/articles/6490836/Delaware-County/New-York/Delaware-County-sheriff-highlights-staffing-jail-boarding-revenue-and-public-safety-programs-in-annual-report","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6490836-803bd62755697acb8f5228dcf88029b9/orig.mp4?Expires=1771055123&Signature=TzY6spEIaXqzkfbiNZ~rN9EXCfmbYFOJJZyCDrdYX7Fz9JnP~OrIKkZdia3o~zofOzx3IuGky3B5cjCemSO~HjLxrIJHES5paJvDgO2Fynfh3gSZ5zCpTgf0OYRGyBTeJR2p0t5qI6b5ljb4Nv0QWL7Pr~44ytRhioIDrT11OLaXe2XG3zMtE8MOOtWh12o7yimhb74jRjuncMXmtGt367ZPpKqrkijXEB1G9dMB0zztt8yPQ5kMkcAXrhcM5zyoU3-~XIdaZpkA5aW5OTFdKcVVY3hUdy5lE5u8JVuKMvmpIimswZAxzAfYeIE7FtkIszEB1nLa3Dv-Bq8Ho1CCtw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Sheriff (name not specified) told the Delaware County Board of Supervisors on April 9 that his office faces persistent staffing shortages while generating increased revenue by boarding state and federal inmates and expanding community programs.

In a presentation to the board, Sheriff (name not specified) said the department answered 15,496 calls for service in 2024 and that traffic accident reports rose 27.6% to 462. He said uniform traffic tickets were slightly down compared with the prior year but that overall traffic-related calls and impairment-related accidents are driving concern and agency attention.

\"It's an honor and a privilege to be able to do this and to recognize the expert work that's done by the members of the Delaware County Sheriff's Office,\" the sheriff said, describing recruitment and retention as ongoing challenges and noting the office runs its own corrections academy to train local staff.

Why it matters: the sheriff framed board support as central to maintaining response capacity and training, while revenue from boarding inmates affects county jail operations and budgets.

The sheriff said corrections boarding revenue rose 126% from 2023 to 2024, driven largely by federal inmates from the U.S. Marshals Service and state-ready inmates the county continues to house. He said the county received about $100 per day from the state for state-ready inmates but that many costs — transportation and medical care for inmates — remain county responsibilities. He described a 38% increase in jail population year-over-year and a 92% increase in the female population.

On staffing, the sheriff reported ongoing vacancies in road patrol and corrections and highlighted recent promotions: Cody Tremblay to criminal investigator (assigned to child-crime work with the district attorney's office), Kyle Karchar to corporal, and Jeff Clark to sergeant. He said two corrections academies were run last year and another was planned for the summer to help fill open posts.

The presentation also covered community-facing programs: a school resource officer (SRO) placed in the Stamford Central School District, a K-9 program (K-9 Edge) used in school visits and community engagement, a sheriff's camp for at-risk youth coordinated with local social services and the New York State Sheriffs Association, property and school checks, and special community events. The sheriff called the SRO and K-9 programs \"valuable\" for relationship building and student support.

The sheriff attributed some increases in criminal-investigation workload to changes in pretrial practices (referred to in the meeting as \"bail reform\"), which he said make confidential informant work and longer investigations more difficult. He described a 10-month investigation that led to seizure of AR-style rifles, two unserialized \"ghost guns,\" large quantities of fentanyl and other narcotics.

Board response: Supervisor Gladstone and other board members thanked the sheriff and pledged continued support. The sheriff invited board members to the annual employee awards next Monday at 11 a.m.

Ending: The sheriff closed by thanking the board for support and offering to answer questions; the board recessed to the next agenda item after the presentation.","The Delaware County sheriff presented the office's 2024 annual report to the Board of Supervisors, emphasizing recruitment challenges, a rise in jail boarding revenue largely from federal and state inmates, increased traffic accidents, and expansion of school resource and community programs.","actionData","errors"]
