The Laws, Rules and Government Services Committee approved a memorandum of agreement (MOA) between Ulster County and the Ulster County Deputy Sheriffs Benevolent Association on May 15, covering contract years 2025 through 2028.

Committee members moved and seconded the resolution—filed as a late item, Resolution 268—and approved it by voice vote. The resolution authorizes the MOA and makes accompanying amendments to the 2025 Ulster County budget to reflect terms of the agreement.

Committee discussion on the item was brief. The clerk recorded the voice vote as unanimous with no opposition. The resolution authorizes county executives and fiscal staff to implement the budget amendments necessary to carry out the contract terms.

The committee did not detail specific wage, benefit, or budget numbers during the meeting; the MOA text and budget amendments were approved as presented in committee.
