Committee authorizes negotiation for Seneca Place lease after executive session
Summary
The committee authorized county administration to negotiate terms for office space at Seneca Place (Resolution 13754). The matter was discussed in executive session under public officers law (real property) and, on return to open session, the committee voted to send the negotiation authorization to the full legislature.
The Facilities & Infrastructure Committee on Dec. 4 authorized county administration to begin negotiations with the landlord of Seneca Place for office space under Resolution 13754.
County administration described a two-step process: committee approval to commence negotiations and, once key parameters are agreed, a return resolution committing the county to a lease for full legislative approval. Because some details were confidential, the committee recessed into a short executive session under Article 7, §105 of the Public Officers Law to discuss the proposed lease. After returning to open session, Greg moved and Randy seconded the resolution to authorize negotiations; the motion carried and the item will advance to the legislature.
Chair and staff said they expect to return with finalized terms for full legislative action once negotiations conclude. No final lease terms were reported in open session.
