Ulster County committee moved the public hearing time for a proposed local law updating county charter and administrative code references to reflect state public health law changes for boards of health.
The Ulster County Laws, Rules, and Government Services Committee on June 12 set a public hearing date and amended the start time for a proposed local law that would amend county charter and administrative code sections related to Board of Health membership to align with recent changes in state public health law.
The committee adopted an amendment that moved the public hearing start time to 7:00 p.m.; members then voted to adopt the resolution as amended. Committee discussion at the June 12 meeting focused on scheduling the public hearing rather than debating the content of the proposed membership changes.
The public hearing on proposed Local Law No. 7 of 2025 is scheduled for July 15 at 7:00 p.m. The resolution’s stated purpose is to update county charter section C-42A and Administrative Code section 8.5.3A to reflect recent state public health law changes regarding local boards of health.
No substantive changes to the proposed charter or code language were adopted at the committee meeting on June 12; the committee action only set the hearing time.
