Livingston County board approves multiple resolutions, authorizes FEMA grant application and hears budget and reimbursement updates
Summary
At a regular meeting, the Livingston County Board of Supervisors adopted several routine resolutions by unanimous consent, authorized submission of a FEMA BRIC grant application to update the county's all-hazards mitigation plan, and heard staff reports on capital planning and a NYSDOT reimbursement totaling about $445,000.

Those resolutions were adopted with a recorded tally noted repeatedly in the minutes as "Ayes, 2998. Absent, 2056. Adopted." The board took separate unanimous-consent votes to:
- Authorize the chairman to sign a contract for county services with Forest Hill Catering (motion language in the transcript: "authorizing the chairman of the Livingston County Board of Supervisors to sign the following contract for Livingston County, Forest Hill Catering"). - Amend the February 2025 Livingston County budget for central services, contingency, county administrator, board of elections and records management…
