Summary

Planning reported four GML-239 referrals, including one from Dundee found to have a negative countywide impact (an unpermitted large chicken operation coming into compliance), outlined tentative public transportation start in September 2027 and noted several grant statuses including a pending NYS EFC septic grant agreement.

Jeff Ayers reported that the Yates County Planning Board reviewed four GML-239 referrals and that "One Referral from Dundee determined to have a negative countywide impact." He added context that an individual had a large number of chickens without a permit and was coming into compliance, which was the basis for the negative-countywide-impact determination.

Ayers said public transportation planning continues and that county staff are tentatively looking at starting mortgage tax collection early in 2027 with service beginning in September 2027. He also provided brief updates on solid-waste events, the NYS EFC septic system replacement grant (no agreement yet), and a NYS Parks snowmobile grant that is currently being audited.
