Paratransit Update

The Clinton County Legislature Transportation Committee voted last night, June 12, to have the Planning Department draft a written plan for proposed elimination of paratransit in "greater Plattsburgh." The Committee also agreed that there will be further public comment meetings on the plan once it is written. We will let everyone know as soon as the Planning Department has a completed written plan, possibly in July, as well as how and when the public can comment on it.

In the meantime, you can still sign the online petition, and encourage others to sign it as well ... especially people with disabilities who use Clinton County paratransit.
