County accepts multiple public-safety grants and authorizes fingerprinting contract
Summary
The Jan. 14 agenda lists acceptance of grants from the New York State Department of Agriculture, the U.S. DOJ–DEA and the U.S. ATF, plus authorization of a fingerprinting accreditation contract; committee reports show prior committee approvals.
On Jan. 14, 2025, the Monroe County agenda included multiple resolutions accepting state and federal grants and authorizing related contracts. Agenda entries list acceptance of a New York State Department of Agriculture grant for a Petroleum Product Quality Program; a U.S. Department of Justice–Drug Enforcement Administration grant for a DEA task force; and a U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives grant for an ATF–Monroe County Sheriff's Office Firearm/Explosive Task Force.
Additionally, the agenda includes authorization for a contract with Ron Smith & Associates, Inc. for fingerprinting accreditation and lists committee approvals for the items. The printed agenda provides committee vote tallies (in most cases 10-0 or 11-0) but does not list grant dollar amounts or contract values in the line-item text. The entries indicate that the matters were advanced as part of the consent package processed that evening.
