Published

SUFFERN, NY – Village of Suffern Mayor Curley releases a statement regarding 25 Old Mill Road.

“For anyone who is receiving misinformation in reference to 25 Old Mill Road (formally the Novartis site), for well over a year, I have been firm in my position that the Village of Suffern will not be participating in a Payment in Lieu of Taxes (“PILOT”) program. I have not and will not change my position on this piece of property. The Rockland County IDA has individual powers, separate and apart, from the Village of Suffern (including mortgage taxes, sales taxes, and other issues). Where I hold our taxing authority is in reference to our Village taxes, which I will not waive. I will point out that the Village.” Mayor of Suffern Curley.

Assemblyman Patrick Carroll Releases Statement on the New York State Budget

ROCKLAND COUNTY, NY – Assemblyman Patrick Carroll released the statement below on the New York State Budget

“No budget is perfect – while I had serious objections to how the process played out, particularly cramming in non-fiscal related policy matters at the last minute, I proudly voted for the state budget because it includes significant wins for Rockland County and all New Yorkers. Too often Rocklanders get the short end of the stick from our state government. Not this time. This budget that will make New York safer and more affordable, reflecting our values and priorities by delivering for our children, our seniors, and our families.

From record funding for our schools, including more than a two percent increase in foundation aid for all local schools, and universal school meals for all students across the state, to providing relief for middle class and working families with tax cuts and tax credits, no one, especially Rocklanders, will be left behind. By investing record funding in gun violence prevention, increased funding for mental health, and reforming our criminal justice laws, the safety of our children and our communities is at the forefront of this budget.

While the federal government slashes vital services and implements disastrous tariffs, we’re fighting for a better future for all New Yorkers. This budget does just that.”
