Summary
The committee authorized a contract with Foote & Meyer, PLLC, for legal work on enforcement of judgments in favor of the County Building Department at $300/hour and not to exceed $10,000 per year; Supervisor Leuer requested consolidated updates on foreclosure actions, but the county attorney declined to commit.
The committee authorized a professional-services contract under GML §104(b) with Foote & Meyer, PLLC to provide legal services related to evaluation and enforcement of judgments in favor of the Wyoming County Building Department, including possible foreclosure actions. The firm will bill at $300 per hour plus out-of-pocket expenses, and the contract cap was listed as $10,000 per year; Perkins moved the motion and the vote was recorded Ayes: 7.
Supervisor Leuer asked for consolidated monthly updates rather than piecemeal case reviews; County Attorney J. Wilkinson said he could not commit to that approach given the timing and nature of foreclosure actions. The minutes show the item recorded as a professional service contract in created status (MUNIS contract pending).
