Commissioner presses Prometheus for workforce development commitments; staff says developer reluctant to bind amounts
Summary
A commissioner asked Prometheus to set aside part of its allocation for local workforce development; staff said Prometheus is interested in workforce programs but its attorney would not commit to an annual fixed percentage or dollar amount, leaving the request unresolved.
A commissioner said the commission had previously requested Prometheus set aside funds from its allocation to support workforce development programs for Greene County residents and asked staff to investigate further. The commissioner said he was "disappointed" that Prometheus "weren't interested in putting something together" but did not want to kill the project over the concern.
Staff responded that Prometheus had expressed interest in workforce development generally but that the company's attorney indicated they were not willing to commit to a specific percentage or dollar amount annually from their allocation. Commissioners acknowledged the company's interest but noted without a contractual commitment the outcome is uncertain and asked staff to continue discussions and report back.
