ITEMS FOR DISCUSSION  
1.  
ACT-2026-86  
ACT-Westchester County Lessor Prevailing Wage  
Guests: Law Department  
Stacey Dolgin-Kmetz, Chief Deputy County Attorney  
Shawna MacLeod, Senior Assistant  
Ms. MacLeod said the legislation provides that for any construction project done on property  
leased by the County, where the lease term is 10 years or more and the construction project is  
more than $250,000, the lessor is required to contract with contractors and subcontractors  
who pay prevailing wage.  
Legislator Cunzio asked whether this would go into effect if the County previously signed a  
lease and has not started any kind of construction and override the previous parameters  
outlined in the lease. Ms. MacLeod said the original lease parameters would apply. Legislator  
Cunzio asked whether this would apply if a lease is revised. Ms. Dolgin-Kmetz said it would  
apply if a lease is renewed, but she is unsure if it would apply if a lease is revised.

voted unanimously to go into executive session to discuss legal advice at 1:27 p.m. With a  
motion by Legislator Nolan seconded by Legislator Cunzio, the committee members voted
