Delaware County Legislature approves six resolutions in Feb. 1 session
Summary
The legislature passed six resolutions on Feb. 1, including budget amendments, awards authorizations and observances. Several measures passed by roll call; two were approved by voice vote.
Delaware County legislators approved six resolutions during their Feb. 1 session, taking routine budget and administrative actions and adopting a proclamation for National Public Health Week.
Resolutions approved included: a 2025 budget amendment to accept funds from the New York Department of State (Resolution 62); a February 2025 budget amendment (Resolution 63); authorization for awards for the Department of Planning, Parks and Watershed Affairs (Resolution 64); correction of current tax rolls under the Real Property Tax Law (Resolution 65); a proclamation designating National Public Health Week, April 7–13, 2025 (Resolution 66); and approval to continue the county sales tax levy (Resolution 67). The session also approved Resolution 68 (payment authorization) and voted to move into executive session on personnel matters at the end of the public meeting.
Several items were approved by roll call. Where the transcript recorded roll-call votes, the clerk recorded affirmative votes from the legislators present; the transcript shows those roll calls recorded in the official minutes. Resolutions 66 and 67 were carried by voice vote.
The legislature did not debate major policy changes on these measures during the Feb. 1 meeting; most discussion on the agenda focused on the earlier EMS presentation. The clerk and chair completed the roll calls and the measures were adopted as noted on the record.
