ATTENTION HOMEOWNER’S AND CONTRACTORS

The Governor and New York State has released its re-opening strategy “NY Forward”. Governor Cuomo’s Executive Order has defined essential business that are allowed to operate. Refer to the State’s website:

As of May 26, 2020, the mid-Hudson Region will be eligible for the first phase of re-opening which includes construction, retail (curbside), manufacturing and wholesale trade.
Other businesses and activities are still limited. During this difficult time we urge everyone to abide by the Executive Order.
