Emergency Repairs have been made to East Otto Bridge No. 37 located on Hammond Hill Road over Cattaraugus Creek in the towns of East Otto (Cattaraugus County) and Concord (Erie County). Due to the repairs made, the posting has been raised back to 15 tons. Additional repairs will be made in the spring to help maintain the 15 ton posting.
Cattaraugus County residents can be assured they can continue to apply for SNAP benefits at the county's Department of Social Services for now, despite the federal government shutdown.
Department of Social Services Commissioner Anthony Turano said the county will continue to take applications for the program in person, by mail, and online using myBenefits.ny.gov., despite the shutdown, until given direction by federal and/or state authorities not to process the forms.
