Ontario County may face legal action from one of the state’s largest unions over its decision to put the county-run nursing home on the market. The Civil Service Employees Association (CSEA) is currently involved in several similar law suits across New York.
The union has filed cases in counties including Steuben, Chautauqua, and Saratoga. They maintain that municipalities can’t sell assets that serve an essential public need, and have indicated that the actions of Ontario County may warrant a legal response.
