DISCUSSION

Mike Metzger

I would like to call to order the Governance Committee of the County of Chautauqua Industrial Development Agency. We are at the BWB Building, 201 West Third Street, Jamestown, New York. It is October 22, 2019 and it is 9:38 a.m. I would like to entertain the approval of the prior minutes from December 18, 2018.

 

Brad Walters

So moved Mr. Chairman.

Mark Odell

Second.

Mike Metzger

I have a motion made by Brad and second by Mark. All those in favor?

Committee

Aye – Unanimous.

Mike Metzger

Opposed, abstained, motion carried unanimously. Now to New Business. The Sexual Harassment Policy please.

Rich Dixon

We approved a new policy 4-5 months back, prepared by the State of New York. One of the requirements was to have all the employees trained. We were going to work with our attorneys but schedules did not match up, so we had the staff do the training online. Rosie has a file on the completion of the course by all employees.

Mark Odell

Did the Board Members have to take it?

Rich Dixon

Only employees of New York State/New York State Agency.

Mike Metzger

Is there any other New Business?

Rich Dixon

The Governor signed in to law that all IDA meetings, Board meetings and Public Hearings must be live streamed.

Mark Geise

I spoke with Ryan Sylva yesterday, Director of the NYS Economic Development Council, and he advised there would be a discussion next week, during their conference, on that very issue.

Rich Dixon

My understanding is there will be an ipod that you set up, with its own wifi, and it will broadcast.

Mark Odell

When do we have to be in compliance?

Mark Geise

January 1st.

Rich Dixon

There is wiggle room. If your location won’t allow you to live stream, the video can be uploaded as soon as you have the ability to do so.

 

Mark Geise

We have to post it on our website as well.

Brad Walters

Will it be turned off during Executive Session?

Rich Dixon

Yes.

Mike Metzger

From my understanding is that you can even do it from your cell phone, like Face Time, but we would want to do it professionally because these will be achieved and there is no notice on when they can be taken down. They may be up forever. Ok, Old Business?

Mark Geise

I’m on the CCVB Board and last year they implemented a Social Media Policy, which I thought was a great idea. I think it’s important that we adopt one as well. I invite you to read through this.

Mike Metzger

We will review it first and then vote in it at the next meeting. It is up to the Board because it was taken from another source. Would this have to be passed by legal?

Rich Dixon

No.

Mike Metzger

We can approve it at this committee and then move it to the Board.

 

Mark Odell

My Chairman, I will make a motion to approve as presented.

Brad Walters

Second.

Mike Metzger

Motion made and seconded. All those in favor?

Committee

Aye – Unanimous.

Mike Metzger

Is there any other business to come before this committee? Hearing none. I will ask for a motion to adjourn.

Mark Odell

Motion to adjourn.

Brad Walters

Second.

 

Mike Metzger

Motion made and seconded. All those in favor?

Committee

Aye – Unanimous.

Mike Metzger

Opposed? We are adjourned.

Meeting adjourned at 9:48 a.m.

Respectfully,

Rosemarie Strandburg
