RUPCO PARTNERS WITH SOLSTICE FOR ULSTER COUNTY'S SOLARIZE CAMPAIGN

Calling all members of the RUPCO Community! We have partnered with Solstice for Ulster County’s Solarize Campaign to bring affordable solar to families and individuals in our network. Local residents affiliated with RUPCO can join a local solar farm, support renewable energy in your community, and enjoy up to 10% savings on your electric costs with no installation or upfront payment required.

 

NYS EXTENDS EVICTION MORATORIUM 

New York State lawmakers passed legislation that would extend a statewide moratorium on residential and commercial evictions through Aug. 31.

That financial aid will provide up to a year’s worth of unpaid rent and utilities, a financial lifesaver for not just tenants but also their landlords, many of whom have endured more than a year of little income.
