Impotrant NOCCOG Meeting

NOCCOG will be holding a meeting to discuss the ramifications of the proposed State Budget and its direct and immediate effect on our services.  Governor Cuomo released his Executive Budget proposal on February 1, 2011. The Governor's budget proposes to eliminate the Tug Hill Commission.   If the budget is adopted as proposed the Tug Hill Commission and the councils of government under the commission, includiong NOCCOG, will no longer exist.  Even thought we have had many late budgets, the NYS Legislature is supposed to adopt the budget by April 1, 2011.

 We are asking the Supervisor /Mayor from each town and village or their representative attends this very important meeting that will be held on Thursday, February 17, 2011 at 7:00 PM at the Lee Town Hall. Please contact circuit rider Gerry Ritter at 392-2260 or at Gjritter01@aol.com with any questions.
