Board approves several grants, RSAF award, and a $447,000 vehicle transfer for sheriff
Summary
The board accepted a FY27 Creative Communities arts grant ($4,500), an $82,577.70 Rescue Squad Assistance Fund award for monitors (with 30% local match), approved a Victim/Witness grant, and approved transferring $447,000 from photo-enforcement funds to purchase vehicles for the sheriff's office.
County staff asked the board to accept multiple grants and approve a budget amendment for sheriff equipment: the FY27 Creative Communities Partnership Grant award of $4,500 (to support Chautauqua Festival) was accepted, a Rescue Squad Assistance Fund award of $82,577.70 was presented to purchase cardiac monitors with a required local match, and the board approved acceptance and the matching appropriation. The board also approved carrying forward the Victim/Witness grant and authorized a request to transfer $447,000 of unrestricted photo-enforcement funds into the sheriff's vehicle replacement line.
Emergency-services staff explained monitors are expensive but important for cardiac and vascular emergencies and that RSAF funds must be spent by Sept. 1; the board approved acceptance and the short turnaround. The sheriff was present for the vehicle-transfer request and the board approved the transfer by roll call.
