CATO - Cayuga County Sheriff's Office officially opened its second substation within the county Monday. Deputies patrolling the northern portion of Cayuga County will now report to an office in the Cato Municipal Building just off Route 34.
Sheriff's officials joined officials from the Town and Village of Cato for the opening.
The substation provides a computer and workstation for three deputies, though the village is currently working on a $175,000 grant to add space.
Before Monday, deputies patrolling the north side of Cayuga County had to drive 20 miles to the Cayuga County Public Safety Building in Sennett to start and end each shift. Now, they will be able to carry out much of their work and respond to incidents directly from the substation.
This is the second substation Sheriff David Gould has opened since he his term started in January. Gould promised to open the two substations, which have been unused for four years, during his campaign last year. The other one, located in Moravia, opened in July.
