Committee accepts state paving allocations including CHIPS and PAVE New York
Summary
City staff told the Finance Committee that New York State budget allocations (CHIPS, Extreme Winter Recovery and PAVE New York) require acceptance so finance can set up codes and pay paving contracts; committee moved the item forward with no substantive debate.
Finance staff briefed the committee on the New York State budget provisions that allocate several local paving funds — the Consolidated Local Streets and Highway Improvement Program (CHIPS), Extreme Winter Recovery, PAVE New York and related state programs — and asked the committee to accept the funds so the finance department can set up budget codes to disburse payments for paving work.
Council members asked for a paving schedule to share with constituents; staff agreed to provide the schedule. A motion to accept the funding and authorize finance to set up the codes was moved, seconded and approved by voice vote.
