Renovation of a municipal facility in Kingston, New York. Conceptual plans call for the renovation of a municipal facility.

This project is to modernize six elevators at the Ulster County Office Building, the County Courthouse and the Department of Public Works Administration Building. The condition of the physical equipment merits planning now of either total modernization of all elevators included in this study at this time, and, or partial modernization. These elevators can no longer be considered reliable and problems will increase in frequency and severity. This modernization project will address life safety communication; emergency power operation; security; and ADA handicapped design requirements which will interface with building standards in the area of signals, graphics and emergency device interfaces. There are several factors that justify an elevator modernization project, including the availability of spare parts, which is declining significantly, forcing the mechanics to repair components that are normally replaced. In addition, many of these parts can not be repaired any further. This situation can lead to having the elevator out of service until a modernization can be completed. This project is in included in the Ulster County FY 2023 - 2028 CIP. As of February 23, 2023, further details regarding design and construction have not been identified. *Project information has been obtained through a public capital improvement plan (CIP).
