Are Saugerties police are giving village short shrift?

Trustee Don Hackett says the police department isn’t covering the village the way it promised to before the dissolution of the village department last year, and he said as much to Deputy Police Chief Joseph Sinagra at a recent village board meeting.

“My concern is coverage,” Hackett told Sinagra. “Originally we were told that we would have officers here 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and I don’t see it.”

“Whenever possible we keep two cars in the village,” Sinagra said. The exception is when an officer in another part of town needs assistance.

Sinagra added that the police department is down two officers, who will soon be replaced, “so right now it’s tough.”
