Steuben County to present charter amendments to codify recent local laws

Steuben County Legislature · June 9, 2026

Summary

County members agreed to present proposed charter amendments that update codified local laws and clarify the county's role as the local health board; one member requested correction to town listings before presentation.

The Steuben County Legislature voted to present proposed amendments to the county charter that incorporate recent local laws and clarify statutory references. A staff member presenting the changes said the amendments “are attached to your agenda” and described the package as bringing outdated references up to date.

One committee member raised a specific omission, saying District 10 listed only three of its six towns and asking staff to add the three missing towns before presentation. Members also debated language relating to the county attorney’s outside practice and agreed the phrase describing what constitutes “full time” work needed clearer wording. The body approved a motion to present the local law with the noted edits for formal introduction.
