County will subcontract a $20,000 local-government-efficiency grant to Southern Tier Central
Summary
Southern Tier Central sought county approval to administer a state Local Government Efficiency grant it was awarded; Chelsea Robertson said the award is $20,000 with a matching contribution and asked the county to contract with STC to enable payments. The board approved the subcontract arrangement.
Chelsea Robertson of Southern Tier Central (speaker S9) told the board that STC had been made an eligible entity for a New York State local government efficiency grant and had been awarded funds but faced contracting hurdles because the state did not know how to pay a regional board. She asked the county to accept the grant and subcontract administration to STC; she said STC will provide the match and do the administrative work.
Chelsea summarized the program as technical assistance to help communities and students distribute local-government-efficiency funds and noted the award was described in the meeting as $20,000, with the organization providing a matching amount. The board voted to accept the grant and authorize subcontracting to STC.
