Over 100 local, county and state officials at-tended NOCCOG's 29th Annual Meeting and Dinner at the Delta Lake Inn on Thursday, October 27th. Vice-Chairman Arnie Talgo, in the absence of Chair-man Bob Sauer, deliv-ered the annual report. The renewal of the in-ter-municipal agree-ment (IMA) between NOCCOG and the 19 towns and villages was voted on and accepted.
NOCCOG Executive Board members were elected for 2012: John Doiron (Ava), Chairman; Arnie Talgo (Steuben), Vice Chair; Mark Scheidelman (Trenton), Fiscal Officer; and, Bob Sauer (Camden) and Mark Trnchik (Annsville) as Directors.
The 2012 annual budget was explained in detail by Mr. Scheidelman and was adopted. Annual dues were increased from $550 to $1,000 for 2012 by a unanimous roll call vote of the chief elected official from each municipality or their designee.
Tug Hill Com-mission GIS Spe-cialist Mickey Dietrich gave a presentation on asset manage-ment and the im-portant role GIS plays in the process of collecting highway-related information. Laminated and mounted copies of official road maps for the towns of Camden, Floyd and Steuben were presented to local officials from those communities. The NOC-COG Executive Board and staff greatly appreciate the continued support from its municipal partners.
NOCCOG circuit rider Gerry Ritter will be visiting supervisors and mayors in the next few weeks that were not able to attend the meeting to ask them to sign the renewal of the IMA.
