June 3, 2026 Assembly of Delegates Regular Meeting

The Barnstable County Assembly of Delegates held a regular meeting on June 3, 2026, where key procurement and budgetary topics were discussed. The meeting included a detailed financial report for the third quarter of fiscal year 2026 presented by Treasurer and Finance Director Carol Copala, highlighting management of nearly $86 million across various funds including general, Cape Cod Commission, and dredge funds. The report covered revenue collections, expenditures, and capital project funding, noting $40 million in capital stabilization funds with ongoing capital projects dating back to 2015. Discussions also addressed the funding and expenditures related to the PAS (presumably a remediation or infrastructure project), including ARPA funds, borrowing, and federal grants. Additionally, the assembly voted to reappoint the law firm Me Talamin and Costa LLC as legal counsel through December 31, 2026, under existing terms. Other procurement-related topics included concerns about state aid reductions impacting dredging projects and the potential for legislative changes to lottery revenue distribution formulas affecting local funding. The meeting also previewed upcoming committee meetings focused on budget review and telecommunications ordinances.
