Summary

Sandy asked the committee to accept a $139,855 state allocation from the New York State Office of Children and Family Services to support youth sports and education programming for Oct. 1, 2026–Sept. 30, 2027; the committee approved the measure by voice vote (individual tallies not recorded).

The committee on Aug. 4 heard a request from Sandy to accept a New York State Office of Children and Family Services allocation of $139,855 for youth sports and education opportunity funding covering Oct. 1, 2026–Sept. 30, 2027. "I have 2 requests," Sandy said when introducing the item, and later stated, "the amount is 139,855." The request included an allowable 15% salary deduction; Sandy cited the salary deduction amount for the first line as $20,009.78 and read a separate 15% deduction for the team-sports line that appears garbled in the transcript.

The committee discussed year-to-year changes. A supervisor asked whether the allocation was an increase or decrease; Sandy said both lines "decreased, a very small amount" and referred the committee to a chart in the packet that listed last year's youth sports and education allocation as $141,008.95 and this year's amount as $139,855. The Chair called for a voice vote; the transcript records members saying "Aye" and the Chair declaring "That carried." Individual vote tallies were not recorded in the transcript.
