CORTLAND, NY (607NewsNow) — Cortland County’s mental health building is moving.

The office is relocating to a bigger space at 111 Port Watson St. in Cortland next Wednesday, Feb. 18 and Thursday, Feb 19.

“This move reflects Cortland County’s continued investment in mental health services and in the people who depend on them,” Cortland County Legislative Chair Kevin Fitch said. “While a relocation of this scale requires careful planning, our priority has always been ensuring continuity of care.
