Kingston, NY (November 13, 2025) – Ulster County Comptroller March Gallagher published a report on the County’s 2024 financial performance, as reflected in the annual audited financial statements. Ulster County ended 2024 in a strong financial position, with revenues exceeding expenditures and independent auditors issuing a clean opinion on the County’s financial statements.
“Ulster County closed 2024 on solid financial footing. Revenues exceeded expenditures and the County continues to maintain a positive outlook with manageable debt levels. The County should consider prudent ways to bring fund balances within policy limits while planning for the future. Growing surpluses in our Health Insurance and Workers’ Comp Funds should be considered when setting premium equivalent rates next year. Our strong financial position should give us the flexibility to support community priorities while weathering potential reductions in federal, state, and sales tax revenues in the years ahead,” said Ulster County Comptroller March Gallagher.
