Montgomery County Legislature clears a slate of budget and personnel resolutions
The Montgomery County Legislature on June 24 approved a series of routine resolutions, moving quickly through budget transfers, contract authorizations and personnel items before adopting two late additions to its agenda.

Legislators voted to accept budgetary transfers and the procurement record, and passed a string of resolutions amending the 2025 operating budget. Actions included authorizing an extra work order for Barton Lejudice to update the Local Solid Waste Management Plan, approving an agreement for sludge treatment and disposal with the Gloversville‑Johnstown Joint Wastewater Treatment Facility and establishing temporary and full‑time positions as noted in tonight’s calendar.

Sponsors for the evening’s items were recorded in the meeting as follows: Resolution 152 (revolving loan — Maven Beauty Salon) sponsored by Legislators Kowalczyk and Sweet; Resolution 153 (extra work authorization — Barton Lejudice) sponsored by Legislator Hedwell and PEC; Resolution 155 (wastewater sludge treatment agreement) sponsored by Sweet and Kelly. Multiple other budget amendments and personnel resolutions (including Resolutions 156, 158–166, 167–169 and others) were approved by voice vote with no extended debate.

The legislature also adopted two add‑on resolutions offered tonight: one urging Governor Kathy Copeland to veto proposed assessment changes for large solar and wind energy systems, and another establishing policy and practice guidelines to direct the county executive’s preparation of the 2026 operating budget and its calendar. Both add‑ons passed on voice vote.

Most votes were taken by voice with ‘passed’ recorded in the minutes; where the transcript records a specific figure it is presented as stated. The meeting closed after a brief discussion of website video posting and a constituent request about youth baseball promotion.

The legislature adjourned following completion of the evening’s agenda.
