# Rules Review and Legislative Modernization Committee Meeting - October 28, 2026

The Albany County Legislature’s Rules Review and Legislative Modernization Committee met on October 28, 2026. It unanimously approved the previous meeting’s minutes and discussed a proposed policy governing the naming and dedication of county-owned buildings. The proposal would return such decisions to the Legislature for deliberation and a majority vote, following concerns that some naming decisions had occurred without legislative review. Members debated whether to prohibit naming buildings after current elected officials, whether existing names should be difficult to change, and whether renaming should require a supermajority. A motion to report the proposal with a favorable recommendation was seconded and put to a vote, but the transcript does not clearly capture the final tally or result.

No procurement activity, contract awards, purchasing decisions, or spending allocations were identified.
