Allegany County designates official newspapers for 2026 in 8-0 roll call
Summary
The legislature designated the Alfredson and the Olean Times Herald as Allegany County’s official newspapers for 2026 by an 8-0 roll-call vote after a short procedural discussion about a missing signature.
The Allegany County Legislature designated the Alfredson and the Olean Times Herald as the county’s official newspapers for 2026 following a motion and second. The motion passed by roll-call vote, 8-0, with no absences recorded.
Discussion before the vote included a procedural question from Speaker 2 noting their signature was missing from the page of legislators’ signatures. Speaker 7 offered to have Speaker 2 sign the original later; Speaker 8 observed a majority vote is sufficient to proceed. On request, the board conducted a roll-call vote (Speaker 1 called members and the clerk reported 8–0, no absences), and Speaker 1 declared the designation passed.
The transcript records the newspapers as "the Alfredson and the Olean Times Herald" as presented at the meeting. The meeting did not supply additional details about publication schedules, statutory posting requirements, or whether any alternatives were considered.
