Administrative Services Committee Meeting 05/18/26

The Chautauqua County Government held its Administrative Services Committee meeting on May 18, 2026, where several procurement and budget-related matters were discussed. Key procurement topics included the renewal and amendment of capital project accounts for Jamestown Community College, specifically reallocating $115,000 towards infrastructure projects such as generator replacements. The committee also reviewed a proposed resolution to amend the 2026 budget for American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) capital projects, moving revenue and transfer funds into 2026 to complete outstanding projects. Additionally, the committee considered local laws related to short-term rental occupancy tax registration and administration, aiming to align local regulations with state law. Agreements were authorized with the Village of Mayville and BOCES for election training facilities on a three-year, no-cost basis, addressing liability concerns. A proposed resolution to establish a capital contingency fund for Jamestown Community College was tabled pending further review due to potential state restrictions. The meeting included motions and votes approving budget reallocations, contract authorizations, and local law amendments affecting county financial and procurement operations.
