That is correct. The NYSP does not charge Towns for regular police services. Even with the agreement with the Town of Monroe owning the Monroe State Police Barracks does not guarantee a certain level of police services. I do not think that they have cars that are dedicated to the Town of Monroe, Since the Barracks is in the Town of Monroe, response times can be fairly quick, but during the overnight shifts, when the Troopers are riding as double units (as stated in their union contracts), there are half the amount of cars on the road. The Trooper cars from the Monroe Barracks cover from the Goshen/Middeltown line, out to the Village of Florida, plus all of Route 17 to the Harriman Tolls & all of Route 6 up to the traffic circle.
It is a very large area to cover and if a Trooper car makes a DWI arrest anywhere in the areas that they cover, that car is out of service for a pretty decent amount of time. Without the Town of Tuxedo paying the NYSP for a dedicated car, they are only going to get reactive police services and response times can be very extended. The Town of Tuxedo will never get the level of police services that their own police department can provide. The Town Board is leaving their residents out to dry and this is a very dangerous situation.
