Committee authorizes RFP for second county code enforcement officer after complaints
Summary
Following complaints about county code enforcement actions in multiple municipalities, the committee authorized the County Manager and Purchasing Director to issue an RFP for a second county code enforcement officer; motion carried 5-0.
Legislator Shannon Logsdon raised multiple complaints about the county’s code enforcement arrangements, citing examples including shutdowns of a pool project in the Town of Cohocton and problems in the Village of Wayland. After discussion of jurisdictional limits and potential liability, the committee approved a motion authorizing the County Manager, in conjunction with the Purchasing Director, to issue an RFP for a second county code enforcement officer. The motion was made by Mrs. Logsdon, seconded by Mrs. Lando, and carried 5-0.
County Manager Jack K. Wheeler noted the county could issue a new RFP as it has in the past; legislators discussed whether the problems represent personality issues, contractual gaps, or both, and whether towns should hire their own officers. The minutes reflect the committee’s unanimous support for seeking a second code enforcement contract through competitive procurement.
