JOHNSTOWN The Fulton County Board of Supervisors recently authorized Sheriff Richard Giardino to commence the process for state accreditation of his department’s Road Patrol Division.
The sheriff’s office division would be accredited through the state Department of Criminal Justice Services.
Giardino has requested to commence the application for accreditation, which stems from the newly-adopted Fulton County Police Reform and Reinvention Plan. The plan enumerated five sheriff’s “goals and objectives for the future,” including DCJS accreditation.
The plan was the product of the Fulton County Police Reform Advisory Committee, which was formed after Gov. Andrew Cuomo last June 12 issued an executive order requiring local governments to adopt a police reform plan.

Hare stood there soaking wet and asking the man a million questions, said Pastor Bonnie Orth.
“He was one of the most amazing men I’ve ever met,” she said.
Orth stood with several other members of Hare’s family outside the charred timbers of his home on Route 30 in Mayfield. Hare, 91, died in the fire that broke out at his home early Wednesday morning.
A picture of Hare in a suit and tie was placed next to dozens of flowers and an American Flag perched on a tree, waving in the wind.
