Board adopts dozens of routine resolutions and contracts; supervisors create broadband committee
Summary
At its Feb. 12 meeting the Livingston County Board of Supervisors approved multiple routine resolutions by unanimous consent, including appointments, contracts across departments, policy adoptions, and the creation of a special committee for broadband infrastructure development.
The Livingston County Board of Supervisors voted unanimously to adopt a long slate of routine resolutions on Feb. 12, approving appointments, contract signings, policy revisions and the creation of a special committee to advise on broadband infrastructure.
Items approved by roll call included appointments to boards and commissions, adoption of county policies, multiple professional and vendor contracts across departments, and the creation of a special committee on broadband infrastructure development.
Among the items the board adopted by unanimous consent were:
- Appointment of Deanna Lyons, MD, to the Livingston County Board of Health. - Appointment of Alexander Pierce as chairperson of the Environmental Management Council. - Appointments to the Livingston County Planning Board: April Mac and John Yelfer. - Appointment of John Maxwell to the Livingston County Soil and Water Conservation District Board of Directors. - Approval of the county’s 02/2025 New York State legislative agenda. - Adoption of the Livingston County social media policy and revisions to the county purchasing policy. - Authorization for a range of contracts across county departments, including: county nursing and rehabilitation contracts (Fusion Medical Staffing LLC; UnitedHealthcare Veterans Affairs Community Care Network); professional services for training and consulting (Beacon Solutions Group); engineering and construction support for bridge replacement projects; contracts for social services and transportation vendors; and other vendor contracts listed on the agenda. - Establishment of the Livingston County Mental Health Clinic rate schedule (resolution text in meeting referenced an effective date of 01/01/2045 as presented). - Authorization to create a special Broadband Infrastructure Development Committee charged with making recommendations to the Board of Supervisors.
The board also amended portions of prior resolutions, approved grant‑application authorizations (including a submission to the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation’s Municipal Zero Emission Vehicle Infrastructure Grants Program), and approved various intergovernmental license and service agreements.
Why this matters: The approvals move multiple county programs and contracts forward across public safety, health, social services, planning, and infrastructure. The broadband committee in particular is intended to advise the board on infrastructure priorities and potential funding approaches.
Votes at a glance: Most items on the consent calendar were passed by unanimous voice or roll call; the meeting transcript records roll‑call “ayes” for the items listed. Where the meeting recorded a specific resolution number or entity, that identifier is noted; when details were not read aloud on the record, the agenda item is described with “not specified.”
