Wendel details process that led to decision to relocate most South County Offices to the Lynn Building...
The decision by the Chautauqua County Legislature to move most of the South County facilities to the Lynn Building ends a four-year search for a new location.  That from County Executive P.J. Wendel after lawmakers voted 12-5 to enter into a lease agreement... starting next year... with East Third Ventures... which is purchasing the building.  Wendel says the price for the building has come down significantly from the original price of $3.1-million.  East Third, he says, has an option to buy the building.  He says they also toured the Furniture Mart building three times, but in the end felt it wasn't the right place.  Other factors... he says... included keeping the south county offices in the city of Jamestown after looking into leasing space at the Chautauqua Mall in Lakewood.  As for keeping Infinity and Chautauqua Striders at the Lynn Building... Wendel says they were willing to help them relocate -- if they wanted to.  However... he says they will locate probation elsewhere to allay safety concerns over people on probation being near young children.  Wendel says... with the way leases are set up with properties they lease in the city... the Jamestown Department of Motor Vehicles will likely be the first to move into the new location.  The DMV's current location lacks off-street parking.
