Town Announcements
We wanted to bring to your attention to a recent scam targeting residents and businesses via the distribution of fake invoices purporting to be municipal bills. Most recently, these scams have targeted upstate counties and municipalities in the Southern Tier. These fraudulent invoices may look authentic and may request payment through unfamiliar methods or to accounts that differ from those normally used by the municipality (i.e., wire transfers). These threats are ongoing and widespread, so be mindful. Please contact us should you have any questions:(607) 432-2900 x01 or clerk@townofoneonta.org Be safe. Town of Oneonta

Welcome to Oneonta
Nestled in the foothills of the Catskill Mountains
along the banks of the Susquehanna River,
Oneonta is centrally located between the urban areas of Binghamton and Albany,
with easy access to Interstate 88, the major east/west transportation route
between Albany and western New York.
The Oneonta Municipal Airport is located three miles from the center of Oneonta.
Oneonta has grown from its origins as an Indian council site to become the leading
educational, cultural, business, retail, and professional center for the Tri-County
area of Otsego, Delaware, and Schoharie.
Oneonta was first known as McDonald's Mills. Beginning in 1817, it became Milfordville
(from the towns of Milford, Otego and Huntsville). It wasn't until 1830 that the
township of Oneonta was formed.
