Legislature deals with building issues

AUBURN - Cayuga County officials are re-examining the possibility of relocating county offices to a new facility in Sennett.

Public Works Committee Chairman David Axton updated other legislators Tuesday during a public works meeting about the committee's efforts to examine the feasibility of building a new office building. Axton said after the meeting that the committee has already received more positive feedback than he expected over the idea.

“(A new facility) would shrink county government,” Axton said Tuesday. “I think cost savings in energy and labor would almost pay for the building to a point.”
