Steuben County committees will consider meal-delivery funding, staff reclassifications and an agricultural district update Wednesday, Nov. 4, in Bath.
The Human Services, Health & Education Committee meets at 9 a.m., followed by Agriculture, Industry & Planning at 9:30, in Legislative Chambers on the Annex Building's third floor.
Meal funding and job changes
The health committee will review accepting $4,237 for home-delivered meals under the Senior Wellness in Nutrition Fund, plus the Office for the Aging's 2027 contracts.
Social Services will provide SNAP, heating-assistance and unemployment-benefit updates and discuss Adoption Day.
Community Services seeks state mental-health and addiction-funding inflationary increases, reallocations and budget adjustments; assisted outpatient treatment, children's single point of access and reinvestment funding; a peer/wellness agreement with Emergency Services; and 2027 contracts.
Two vacant jobs are proposed for reclassification:
- A Public Health Nurse position would become Registered Professional Nurse, retaining CSEA Grade O and the $61,669-$91,223 salary range.
- Social Services' Typist, Grade C at $34,340-$50,797, would become Community Services Worker, Grade B at $33,871-$48,377.
Maintenance contracts and Agricultural District 3
The planning committee will consider extending maintenance contracts with Eastern Security, Davis-Ulmer Sprinkler, Southern Tier Fire Extinguisher, John W. Danforth, Casella Waste Management, Schindler Elevator and Integrated Power Supplies.
Planning also seeks modification and adoption of Agricultural District 3 following its eight-year review. The Steuben County Industrial Development Agency is scheduled to give an activities update.
Both committees will consider approving their Oct. 7 minutes.
