village of South Nyack will cease to exist. The police force has been disbanded and on Wednesday Village Hall was sold to a developer, CBS2's Tony Aiello reported.Deman is planning for the future, now that South Nyack's time is past -- at least as an independent village.
Sixteen months ago, voters concerned about high taxes and rising costs voted overwhelmingly to dissolve South Nyack, which has a population of 3,500, eliminating the village DPW and police department, and transferring all village operations to the town of Orangetown, which is run by Supervisor Teresa Kenny.
"We've been covering the police since January, without incident. We ended up hiring two of their police officers, so there's some continuity. We hired two of their DPW workers, so there will be continuity here in Orangetown," Kenny said."Yes, that's true, last mayor. So, it's an honor and a privilege and it's also a sad moment, too," Christian said.
