Bath Mayor Sweet: Its Not The Bath Village Residents Who Keep Getting Arrested Repeatedly 

November 19, 2025

 

According to Bath Village Mayor Michael Sweet, its unfair how many parolees are being placed in Bath, compared with other municipalities.  “We’ve had over a hundred arrests, from over 1,000 complaints, at about 15 properties (in Bath),” Sweet said this week on Wvin’s Community Focus.  The mayor also says he’s got a plan to change that, starting January 1. 

Plan A: to sign a contract with the county to be able to share information with the county on repeat offenders and to allow Bath Police to do inspections with the county, of places that take in parolees.  Plan B is to enforce the nuisance laws and close down any place that takes the repeat offenders in.
