Summary

Sullivan County approved FY 2026/2027 Human Services Development Fund allocations for multiple local providers, including TREHAB Center, The Children’s House, and Big Brothers Big Sisters of Twin Tiers; one allocation vote passed 2–0 with Chair Myers abstaining due to a conflict.

The Sullivan County Commissioners on July 14 approved a series of allocations from the FY 2026/2027 Human Services Development Fund (HSDF), effective July 1, 2026, through June 30, 2027.

Commissioner Darlene Fenton moved the approvals and Commissioner Brian Hoffman seconded; the motion passed unanimously for that set of allocations.

In a related HSDF motion, the board approved allocations to B/S/S/T Area Agency on Aging ($21,500) and Sullivan County Victim Services ($750). That vote passed 2–0 with Chair Scott D. Myers recorded as abstaining because of a conflict of interest. Commissioners did not elaborate on the nature of the conflict during the public meeting. County staff will proceed with agreements and fund disbursement per HSDF procedures.
