Albany County commissioners voted to authorize an extension of the county's contract for school bus stop‑arm camera services, a county representative said during the meeting.

A representative of the Albany County Executive's office, identified in the meeting as Jack Rosen, told the board the stop‑arm safety program began in 2021 and that the extension preserves the original agreement while changing the revenue‑sharing split later in the contract. "The share that we have currently... is 60/40," Rosen said, and he added that "the following 3 years, it'll be 55/45" under the extension. Rosen also said the extension adds a clause requiring board approval of business‑rules questionnaires and permits alignment with a third‑party vendor to collect outstanding citations.

Board members were given an opportunity to ask questions; none were raised on the record. A motion to authorize the extension was moved and seconded and carried on a voice vote with 'Aye' recorded and no opposition spoken on the audio.

The board did not record the specific mover and seconder names for the motion in the transcript reviewed. The contract extension was presented as an amendment to Resolution 374 of 2021 regarding school bus stop‑arm camera services.

Next steps: the extension will be processed in county records and the board will expect the vendor and county staff to return with any business‑rules questionnaires for formal approval as required by the new clause.
