Press Release

The Village of Deposit recognizes that recent decisions regarding its public safety contract have raised serious concerns among residents. Village officials are issuing this statement to address those concerns directly and transparently.
Following a thorough review of the Village’s financial condition, it became clear that continuing the current public safety contract—costing approximately $100,000 annually for limited daytime patrol coverage—was no longer sustainable within the Village budget. In addition, the Village Board determined that the level of service being provided did not meet expectations, as numerous concerns and complaints were received from residents regarding coverage and effectiveness. This decision was made only after careful consideration and with a full understanding of its impact. The Village Board has a responsibility to ensure long-term fiscal stability while maintaining essential services.
The Village emphasizes that public safety services will continue. Law enforcement coverage will be provided by the Broome County Sheriff’s Office and the New York State Police, as is the case in many communities across the region. While there will no longer be a patrol dedicated exclusively to the Village, emergency response services remain fully operational and available to residents.
Village officials also acknowledge concerns raised regarding transparency in the decision-making process. Moving forward, the Village Board is committed to improving communication, increasing public engagement, and ensuring that significant decisions are discussed as openly as possible.
This action reflects difficult but necessary choices about how to responsibly manage limited public funds. The Village remains committed to exploring sustainable options for maintaining and enhancing public safety and welcomes constructive input from residents.
Residents are encouraged to attend upcoming Village Board meetings or contact the Mayor’s Office directly with any questions, concerns, or suggestions.
The safety, stability, and future of the Village of Deposit remain the top priorities of Village leadership.
