Longtime Warren County employee Jeff Inglee has been hired as Warren County's Director of Parks, Recreation and Railroad! Inglee replaces Dean Moore, who retired March 20, 2026.
The department oversees
Inglee has worked as Warren County Fish Hatchery Manager since August 2008, serving as a de facto second in command of the department of Parks, Recreation & Railroad for a number of years, since the fish hatchery and surrounding park is the headquarters for the department. He also served as interim director when the director post was vacant.
He studied environmental science at SUNY Plattsburgh and Paul Smith's College before taking a job with New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC), and coming to the county hatchery job from the DEC.
"Over the years I've had the opportunity to learn about all of our facilities," Inglee said. "I'm excited to see what we can do to improve the facilities and programs."
Inglee has overseen ongoing efforts to improve infrastructure at the hatchery, which annual raises tens of thousands of trout for stocking in Warren County waters. He was honored as Warren County's "Employee of the Month" in May 2019.
