Public Works Committee agenda includes Drifting Ridge housing grant, sewer budget amendment and utility contracts
Summary
Washington County Public Works Committee agenda lists multiple Department of Public Works and Sewer District items for the Jan. 27, 2026 meeting, including an ESD Pro Housing Grant (Drifting Ridge), a 2026 salary/fringe budget amendment, an RFP for the Drifting Ridge project and gas and energy utility contracts; the memo provides no fiscal or motion details.
The Washington County Public Works Committee agenda for its Jan. 27, 2026 meeting includes several Department of Public Works and Sewer District items that county staff and committee members are expected to review.
Under DPW, the agenda lists an 'Auction Item/Surplus' matter and a discussion of 'Road Speed During Fair.' The Sewer District section lists 'ESD Pro Housing Grant (Drifting Ridge),' a 'Budget Amendment – Salary and Fringe 2026,' an 'RFP Drifting Ridge Project' and 'Gas and Energy Utility Contracts.' The posted memo provides the item titles but does not include budget figures, grant amounts, procurement timelines, recommended motions, or staff reports in the text supplied.
The agenda names the committee members and office contacts; Debra R. Prehoda is listed as Clerk of the Board. The memo directs committee members to notify the Clerk if they cannot attend and supplies a YouTube link for public viewing. The notice also contains an internal inconsistency: the docket line reads 'DATED: January 21, 2025' even though the scheduled meeting is Jan. 27, 2026, and a separate roster line labels Robert A. Henke 'Chairman' while the memo text refers to 'Chair Rozell' scheduling the meeting. Those points are not resolved within the document.
Because the agenda is itemized without supporting documents, this article does not infer motions, vote outcomes, contract terms, or budget dollar amounts. Interested parties should request staff reports or agenda packets from the Clerk of the Board to obtain procurement schedules, fiscal impacts, or grant documentation referenced as 'Drifting Ridge' or 'ESD Pro Housing Grant.'
The committee meeting is scheduled to convene at 10:00 a.m. on Jan. 27, 2026 in Room B214, Building B, at the County Municipal Center in Fort Edward.
