Top issues during term (20)
2027 County Budget
Sets the county property tax levy at about $68 million and commits over $166 million in capital spending over six years.
Youth diversion services contract with ICAN
$37,000 through October 31, 2026.
county sheriff election
A new sheriff could reshuffle how the county spends its law enforcement budget, though the source doesn't specify any dollar figures.
Oswego Road Bridge replacement over Fish Creek, Town of Vienna
$3.6 million committed, but mostly reimbursed by federal/state aid — local taxpayers feel only Vienna's small match.
Wynn Hospital parking garage waterproofing
Moves $600,000 back into the Sheriff's 2026 vehicle budget, with an equal $600,000 cut planned in the 2027 budget.
Sheriff's Office vehicle replacement funding
Moves $600,000 from the contingent budget into sheriff vehicle equipment.
Upland Sandpiper habitat protection and hunting ban
No direct dollar figure stated, though the underlying mitigation creates 155 acres of wetland/grassland obligations.
MVCC Board of Trustees reappointments
County Artificial Intelligence Acceptable Use Policy
The county already carries a cyber liability insurance policy, whose cap may have been raised this year, to cover risks from expanded technology use.
Emergency Services Facility Renovation
Adds $18,500 to the county's contract with MARCH Associates.
Sewer Rehabilitation Engineering Services
Estimated $156,000, largely covered by state loan and principal-forgiveness funding.
MVCC dental hygiene and Payne Hall capital projects
Taxpayers shoulder change costs, though matched federal and state earmarks and a $1 million in-kind donation offset much of the project.
District Attorney firearm violence reduction grant
$121,502 in state grant funds, no local match noted.
Road, bridge, and culvert program contracts
More than $1.6 million in added engineering fees approved across these dockets, though mostly covered by federal and state funds rather than county taxes.
Workforce Development funding transfer
Moves $90,000 within the existing Workforce Development budget — no new county dollars.
Closure of 24 Capital Projects
Directs $1,044,034.43 in surplus project funds toward debt service.
Proposed ban on kratom sales in Oneida County
No direct fiscal cost; enforcement would fall to existing public health and law enforcement resources.
New EMS Coordinator position
The EMS coordinator position pays about $81,000, and members warned a county ambulance service down the road would cost far more.
Humane Society of Rome grant agreement
$100,000 from the county for calendar year 2026.
Sanitary sewer flow monitoring program
Fully state-funded — no county dollars involved.
