The Steuben County Legislature approved a package of destination development grant allocations during the April 27 meeting.
A discussion noted that the Bath Fairgrounds was slated to receive $25,000 under the grant program. During the roll call on Resolution 23, Legislator Pelham recorded an abstention; the chair declared the resolution carried.
