Statement from the Office of the Ulster County Comptroller re: UCAT Investigation
The Ulster County Comptroller’s Office has received multiple credible allegations of the falsification of time records by management at the Ulster County Area Transit Department. The actions taken by the Comptroller were within the scope of our independent investigative and audit authority. The County already operates 10 cameras at the UCAT building on a 24-hour basis. It’s unfortunate that this ongoing investigation has now been disclosed publicly. We urge any members of the community with additional information to contact the Comptroller’s Office.
