Loch Sheldrake site eyed for Sullivan County college
The Joint Liberty Fallsburgh Committee told the Sullivan County Board of Supervisors that locating a permanent community college campus at Loch Sheldrake would cost about 1.6 million to the county. The Fallsburgh Town Board agreed to provide water and sewage to the Loch Sheldrake site, while the Monticello Citizens Committee reaffirmed its offer of 120 additional acres in Monticello. The committee’s letter estimated a total capital outlay of 5.5 million for facilities with a 750 student body, after private gifts are subtracted. The county’s share would be about 1.6 million, based on a 50 percent split. The letter urged personal site inspection to curb sectionalism and provide taxpayers with an accurate picture.

Assessors in Ellenville prepare for Grievance Day hearings, with Fallsburgh leasing to the Loch Sheldrake college site and benefiting from Morningside Park facilities for students and staff.
