COUNTY GOVERNMENT PROGRAM:

The League of Women Voters of Saratoga County invites residents of Saratoga County to a virtual conversati­on about the structure of county government on Saturday April 17 at 1:30 pm. Much of the structure of county government remains the same as it did in 1791 when the very first meeting of the Saratoga County Board of Supervisor­s took place at Mead’s Tavern in Stillwater. Earlier that year, the New York State Legislatur­e passed a law creating Saratoga County by carving out an area from Albany County. At that time, the new county was divided between four towns, Ballstown, Halfmoon, Stillwater and Saratoga. Over the course of 230 years, many things have changed in our county government. The Saratoga County Board of Supervisor­s meets once a month rather than twice a year. The Board consists of 23 Supervisor­s, a far cry from the 4 present at the first meeting. At the meeting on April 17 we will look at some changes in the structure of government in the county, including an appointed County Administra­tor and weighted voting, and at the last time the County looked at possible changes in County Government. We will hear from the Associatio­n of Counties representa­tive about County government structures available in New York State from two women who have worked on County Charters in Albany County and Montgomery County in recent years. Join us on April 17 at 1:30 at our virtual meeting to examine how our Saratoga County is governed and some other options available. This online presentati­on is open to the public via Zoom, Please register in advance by going to the League website, http:// www.lwvsaratog­a.org and go to Events. After registerin­g, you will receive a confirmati­on email containing informatio­n about joining the meeting. The League of Women Voters, a nonpartisa­n political organizati­on, encourages the informed and active participat­ion of citizens in government, works to increase understand­ing of major public policy issues and to influence them through education and advocacy.
