Clerk Wilson mentioned that NYS authorized towns the ability to charge an additional $1 printing fee for sports licenses. It was mentioned that NYS receives most of the license fee. The Board decided to not add the additional charge.
Clerk Wilson discussed options for Dog Control Officer Jillian Smith to access up-to-date dog licenses. In order for Jillian to have access to the Cloudy through the Williamson computer program it would cost over $1,000 or Clerk Wilson can add licenses to the Schoharie County licensed dog list. The Board asked the Clerk to give the latter a try and let them know how it works out.
Bills were paid; then before the Board headed into executive session for advice of council a presentation was made.
