📰 News we're reading

• Fulton sheriff hires four new deputies, increases Sacandaga patrols (dailygazette.com) — Broadalbin residents can expect more sheriff’s patrols on local roads and the Great Sacandaga Lake this summer, thanks to four newly hired Fulton County deputies. Officials cite more e-bikes, teen drivers, and heavy pedestrian and boating traffic as reasons for stepped-up enforcement, especially around the town’s busy boat launch and lakeside areas.
   

• Fulton County looks to get ahead of data center spread (dailygazette.com) — Broadalbin’s supervisor is warning that large data centers are likely to look this way, as Fulton County towns rush to write rules on their size, water use, and power demands. Local planners say communities like Broadalbin must act now so future projects fit their resources and character, rather than being forced to accept ill‑suited proposals.
