Mayor
Jamestown Community College Foundation Executive Director
Maria Kindberg presented to Council a shared services agreement plan to hire a grant writer for the city and
Jamestown Community College. Sundquist said the city could really benefit from a grant writer,

Throughout March, Jamestown Community College paid tribute to women who serve its campuses in celebration of International Women’s Day and Women’s History Month.
The college highlighted several women in senior leadership roles through a social media campaign.
Among those featured included the college’s executive director of human resources, Nickey Riczker, a first-generation college graduate, who comes from “a long line of very strong women … whose strength became even more apparent as they fearlessly faced challenge and adversity.”
“These women paved the way for me to be the first person in my family to attend and graduate from college and to forge a career in the business field, a field that has typically been dominated by men,” said Riczker, who also serves as the college’s chief diversity officer. “As such, it is truly a privilege for me to serve in a leadership role at JCC and I am proud to be a part of an institution of higher learning wh

While only a handful of appointments remain available for one vaccination clinic taking place this week in Jamestown, another has just been announced.
As of 12:45 p.m. this afternoon there were only 66 appointments available for the vaccination clinic taking place Thursday at Jamestown Community College.
Meanwhile, the Moderna vaccine will be administered at a mass clinic Friday at UPMC Chautauqua. It is open to anyone over the age of 18; those who attend must be available May 7 to receive the second dose.

Chautauqua County Executive PJ Wendel said he’s optimistic 50% of residents can be partially, if not fully, vaccinated from COVID-19 by Memorial Day. The county this week crossed the one-third vaccination mark for those receiving at least one dose.
“I’m hoping that by Memorial Day we’re at 50%,” Wendel said of the May 31 holiday. “Obviously, we have boots on the ground working on this. We have to be practical and we have been for the last two months-plus.”
If that benchmark is reached, the county executive believes businesses, venues and other events shuttered over the last year can resume as normal.
