ANGELINA BRANDT
Director of Sustainability Ulster County Resource Recovery Agency
After the industrial revolution made a consumer society possible, garbage was considered a resource for a class of people who made their living sorting through open dumps, scavenging for usable items, and recovering valuable scrap metals.  Think of the ash heap people in Charles Dickens or Alfred Dolittle in Pygmalion.
We have come a long way since then.  For over 30 years, The Agency’s mission is dedicated to protect public health and the environment based on the 4R principle: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle and Recover.  These processes ensure nature continues to be sustainable and life on earth continues to thrive. 
 
The Agency’s services not only simply manage waste, but provide essential community engagement and education to reduce, reuse, and rethink waste.
I hope to see you Wednesday the 15th; bring a friend.

Mayor Steve Noble was born and raised in the City of Kingston.  Graduating with a degree in Environmental Science, (SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry) Mayor Noble also earned his Master’s in Public Administration from Marist College.  
 
He began his career at the City of Kingston’s Parks and Recreation Department, serving as an Environmental Educator and then as an Environmental Operations Specialist.  Steve was elected Mayor of Kingston and began his first term on January 1, 2016, with the commitment of building an open and accessible form of government, one that is based on the principles of professionalism, respect, and inclusiveness.  
 
Mayor Noble was elected to a second term on January 1, 2020. His tenure has brought significant improvements to the City, including the launch of the Downtown Revitalization Initiative, the addition of several new City trails and parks, and the implementation of many new sustainability measures- all while not raising taxes.
