A commission delivered a final report Thursday proposing that Sullivan County change its form of government.
The Sullivan County Charter Revision Commission, which has been meeting since February 2015, is proposing that Sullivan change to a county executive form of government where an elected county executive would replace the county manager, a change that would have to be approved by popular referendum. The Commission’s report cites as a positive example Ulster County, which instituted a county executive form of government in 2006 and where Democrat Mike Hein has served as county executive since.
