Veteran suicide awareness display unveiled outside Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office Monday

Tyler A. McNeil0 CommentsEmail Newsletter, Local News, Montgomery County, News
GLEN — About 22 veterans commit suicide each day. On Monday, that statistic will be represented by 22 pinwheels planted outside of the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office. The intention: raising awareness. "Anytime someone commits suicide it's awful and certainly with our veterans who work so hard and are so dedicated to our country, allowing us to have the freedoms we have today," said Sheriff Jeff Smith. The Field of Invisible Wounds is coordinated between Montgomery County and the Joseph P. Dwyer Program, an initiative dedicated to reducing veteran isolation through one-on-one peer counseling services. Then-state Sen. Lee Zeldin, R-Long Island,…

New York bans the use of facial recognition technology in schools

Ashley Hupfl0 CommentsEmail Newsletter, Local News, New York News, News
ALBANY – The state Department of Education has banned the use of facial recognition technology in public schools. The determination announced this past week prohibits schools in New York from purchasing or using facial recognition technology (FRT), though schools can decide whether to use other biometric identifying technology (BIT), so long as they consider privacy implications, civil rights, effectiveness and parental input. It follows a report by the state Office of Information Technology Services released in August, which examined the use of the technology. The state Legislature in 2021 passed a bill to amend the State Technology Law to ban…

MOREAU — State police haven't ruled out the possible abduction of a young girl from Moreau Lake State Park over the weekend.

$21M mixed-income housing project begins in Gloversville

Tyler A. McNeil0 CommentsBusiness, Email Newsletter, Gloversville, Local News, News
Demolition awaits the former Frontier Communications call center building in Gloversville within the next 45 days. Plans are intended to make room for phase one of a $21 million housing development project in a long-blighted corner of the Fulton County city. Crews in the meantime have already broken ground on an adjacent lot. "The demolition will not be in the way of the construction," said Gloversville Mayor Vincent DeSantis. "They can do both at the same time." Glove City Lofts is slated to have 75 mixed-income units, greenspace and an art gallery managed by the Glove Cities Art Alliance. Two…

Johnstown Public Library to hold Focus Five Kindergarten Readiness Program

AMEARA DITSCHE0 CommentsEmail Newsletter, Johnstown, Local News, News
Johnstown Public Library will hold a kindergarten readiness program this fall for youngsters turning 4 years old by Dec. 1. The Focus Five Kindergarten Readiness Program aims to prepare incoming kindergartners for their first foray into the classroom by exposing them to a similar environment. The program will focus on five key skills: colors, shapes, numbers, rhyming and retelling a story. “We’ll come in and be able to do circle time just like they'd do in preschool or kindergarten,” said Library Educator Deb Ammann. “So just learn to cooperate with others, follow directions, listen to another adult aside from their typical…

Comptroller’s report: New York locales in fiscal stress hits low of 14, chronic non-filers persist

Ashley Hupfl0 CommentsBusiness, Email Newsletter, Local News, New York News, News
ALBANY — An annual report found 14 municipalities to be in some kind of fiscal stress in 2022, the lowest since its inception. State Comptroller Tom DiNapoli’s office releases a report each year that analyzes whether each county, city, town, village and school district in the state — outside of New York City — may be in fiscal stress. The report released Tuesday named the city of Albany, village of Canajoharie and town of Mohawk among those in some kind of stress. DiNapoli created the state’s Fiscal Stress Monitoring System (FSMS) in 2013. It examines each local government’s year-end fund…
