| Public Hearing on Abolishing Elected County Treasurer Position to Take Place During November 6 Board of Legislators Meeting 11/05/18 06:30pm |
meeting on Tuesday, November 6, starting at 5 p.m. in the second-floor board room at the court house building in Lowville. A pair of public hearings will begin at 5 p.m., one for an unsafe structure in the Village of Lowville and one to hear input on a proposed local law seeking to abolish the elected position of County Treasurer in favor of an appointed Director of Finance. Legislators will also be presented with a copy of the 2019 Lewis County Tentative Budget for review. A public hearing on the budget will be held on November 20, with legislators having the opportunity to make changes through resolutions at their December 5th meeting, if necessary. The tentative budget has not yet been released, but includes a proposed property tax rate increase of 1.96%. We sat down with Lewis County Manager Ryan Piche this afternoon for our This Month in County Government segment, where we discuss all of the above mentioned along with some of the resolutions the board will be considering at tomorrow's meeting. You can see the full list of resolutions here. |
