KINGSTON, NY – Mayor Steven T. Noble and the Kingston Veterans Association have cancelled the 2020 Memorial Day parade and ceremony at City Hall, due to a ban on all gatherings in the state of New York. The organizers will instead hold the event on Veterans’ Day, if guidelines and recommendations at that time allow. “While we won’t have a public ceremony this year, it is still important for us all to personally pay tribute to those who have lost their lives fighting for our country,” said Mayor Noble. “I would also ask that we take a moment to thank all active duty and National Guard members who have stepped up to help during this pandemic. These men and women have bravely seen communities like ours through a scary and uncertain time, and should be commended. ” For other ways to support the Kingston Veterans Associations, please visit: https://kingstonvets.org/

“This morning, we were notified by the New York State Health Department that an Ulster County resident has received a ‘presumptive positive’ result for novel coronavirus (COVID-19). This individual recently traveled internationally to France and notified our Health Department that he had symptoms consistent with COVID-19. Upon guidance from our Health Department he drove himself to a hospital where test samples were taken and he was immediately placed into quarantine. We have been preparing for this contingency for the last several weeks and I am confident in our ability to respond quickly and comprehensively to ensure public health and safety. As a first step, we are activating the Ulster County Emergency Operation Center as well as deploying Health Department staff to focus solely on community mitigation efforts. Public Health officials have already begun interviewing this individual to assess who he may have come into contact with and will notify those individuals. We will continue to update the public to ensure full transparency as the situation develops. Read More
