OGDENSBURG â Following a lengthy discussion during the July City Council meeting on Monday night, councilors decided to table a resolution requesting the state take âimmediate actionâ to address the various deteriorating buildings on St. Lawrence Psychiatric Center land.
Councilors shared concerns on the âstrongâ wording of the resolution and what kind of message it would send to the state and Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo, especially as another round of prison closures are expected to be announced some time soon.
In December of last year, days before Christmas, the state announced that three prisons would close March 1 of this year, two of which were in the north country â Watertown Correctional Facility and the Clinton Annex. Fourteen of the 20 state prisons and correction facilities closed over the last decade have taken place upstate, or north of Dutchess County.
OGDENSBURG â Calling the âunmaintainedâ buildings of the St. Lawrence Psychiatric Center a public safety threat, City Council on Monday night will vote on whether to pass a resolution requesting the state take âimmediate actionâ to address the various deteriorating buildings on psychiatric center land.
The state âabandonedâ the St. Lawrence Psychiatric Center in the early 1980s, according to the resolution, and as a result, dozens of old, deteriorating stone buildings remain. The buildings have been empty since the mid-1990s, when the centerâs operations were consolidated into new buildings. Those new buildings stand among the abandoned ones.
âI just really think they have become a blight,â Councilor and Deputy Mayor John A. Rishe said of the abandoned buildings, âand Iâm concerned, given their further deterioration and that some of them are collapsing â they have become a bit of a hazard.
