The Chemung County Legislature voted to combine and approve a multi-item preferred agenda at its meeting, adopting a series of resolutions authorizing contracts, purchases, intermunicipal agreements and personnel confirmations.

Clerical and procedural notes: the roll call votes recorded in the transcript show members answering "aye" for the combined resolution votes; the transcript records the clerk noting an abstention on 25-3. No resolution was recorded as failing in the transcript.
The combined actions authorize contracts and purchases across airport operations, social services, public works, juvenile and youth services, and county facility operations. The transcript contains sponsors for each block and roll-call approval for the combined agenda, but does not show debate that altered the text of the listed resolutions.
