Jamestown opens and quickly adjourns public hearing on Local Law 2 of 2025 with no public comment
Summary
City officials read a notice and opened a public hearing on Local Law 2 of 2025 — an update to enforce New York State building and energy codes in Jamestown — but no members of the public spoke and the hearing was adjourned.
Unidentified Speaker 2, reader for the meeting, read a public notice that a hearing was scheduled for 6:45 p.m. Monday, Nov. 24, 2025, in the City Council Chambers, Municipal Building, 200 East 3rd Street, Jamestown, to consider proposed Local Law No. 2 of 2025, described in the notice as "a local law providing for the administration and enforcement of the New York State Uniform Fire Prevention and Building Code and the State Energy Conservation Code in the city of Jamestown." The notice said the local law could be viewed at the office of the city and on the city's website as available.
Unidentified Speaker 1, presiding officer for the meeting, said the measure is an update made to bring the city's code into compliance with New York State recommendations. Speaker 1 asked the clerk whether any written correspondence had been received regarding the hearing; the record shows none was received.
Speaker 1 then invited anyone present to address the public hearing and asked speakers to state their name and address for the record. When no one came forward, Speaker 1 declared, "If no one is here, I declare the public hearing adjourned." The hearing was closed without public testimony or formal votes recorded.
The hearing concerned adopting state building and energy code requirements locally; the notice gives residents an opportunity to view the proposed text at the city office and online. No next steps or vote scheduling were announced on the record in this transcript.
