Supervisor Michael Specht, Deputy Supervisor Brendel Logan-Charles, and Councilman Michael Rossman attended the Ramapo Police Youth Academy - Class #45, graduation. The students, from East Ramapo Central School District and Suffern Central School District, completed the 9-week program, which included physical agility training, use of force training, taser deployment, a visit with a medical examiner, lockdown training, stop the bleeding training, and crash investigation training. It is exciting to see so many young people interested in law enforcement. Supervisor Michael Specht thanks the Ramapo Police Department, and all of our police that are involved in this amazing program.

Emergency Rental Assistance

The Emergency Rental Assistance Program (ERAP) is currently receiving new applications for the Federally Funded program due to court order. Even though federal funds have been projected to be exhausted with the current amount of applications from Rockland County tenants, a judge has ordered that New York State receive additional applications from Rockland County residents in case additional funding becomes available for the program in the future. New applications will only be reviewed and considered for funding if additional funds become available. I have attached a flyer that reviews the program’s eligibility guidelines.

Applications for the State Funded Emergency Rental Assistance Program are still able to be funded at this time. The eligibility guidelines and the application process is the same as Federally Funded ERAP except to be eligible for the State Funded ERAP a household must have income between 80% and 120% Area Median Income. Those income levels depend on household size and are included in the attached flyer.
