Wells Town Council voted to approve several grants, a new animal‑control contract and related budget adjustments during a meeting recorded in the provided transcript. Unidentified Speaker, presiding over the meeting, announced and guided votes on multiple agenda items and declared several motions carried.
The council approved a request for the CPG home rehab assistance agreement No. 823‑22, described in the transcript as an estimated $30,000 award. The council also approved item 6.3, a CDT home rehab assistance grant H23‑14 in the amount of $31,000; motions on these items were made, seconded and approved by voice vote as recorded in the transcript.
Agenda item 6.4 authorized a grant award, file no. 2024HB‑005, for $40,000 to the City of Lansing Gateway Homeownership Program. The council also approved an adjustment described for the months of November and December totaling $18,480 and noted an increase to miscellaneous public safety revenue (the transcript presents an account code but does not provide a plain‑language line item description). The transcript indicates motions were seconded and approved by voice vote; exact roll‑call tallies were not specified.
The council approved a contract between Glens Falls City and the SPCA of Upstate New York to provide animal‑control services beginning Jan. 1, 2026, through Dec. 31, 2026. The transcript shows the item was presented and the motion carried. The council also approved an agreement with a vendor transcribed as "Bartz and Raffer" related to shelter/boarding and dog running‑at‑large matters; the speaker noted funds had been allocated and transferred into account 45‑4479 and referenced a $23,000 tractor‑services line.
Several routine procedural items were handled without extended debate. The presiding speaker asked for approval of item 12.1 "as read," a second was recorded and the motion was approved. The meeting concluded with no comments under old or new business and seasonal greetings from the presiding speaker.
The transcript does not include named motions' movers or seconders, detailed roll‑call vote counts, or the meeting date. The council's actions as recorded are summarized here because the transcript repeatedly records the motions, seconds and that "Motion carries."
