entirety.
DATE May 17, 2014
RE: 2015 PEGASYS Budget Recommendations from Access Oversight Committee (AOC)
Attached to this letter, please find the Resolution of the Access Oversight Committee of May 5, 2014 with recommendations for
the 2015 Budget for public, educational and governmental access operations ("PEGASYS" or “PEG” operations). Also attached
is a statement of annual PEG collections and expenditures to show the estimated balance we have available for this Budget. I
will attend the Meeting of June 9, 2014 to answer questions and hear your comments.
As you know, the City of Ithaca's Franchise Agreement with Time Warner Cable requires that the three participating
municipalities (The City of Ithaca, the Town of Ithaca and the Village of Cayuga Heights) (“The Municipalities") approve a
budget every year by June 30th while the Agreement is in effect. This Budget is funded with the $.15/subscriber/month fee that is
charged to TWC subscribers in the Municipalities. This "PEG Fee" goes directly from the subscriber to TWC where it stays until
the approved purchases are made. The AOC drafts a budget for these purchases and submits it to the Municipalities for review
and approval. This allows subscribers, through their elected representatives, a say in what happens to their PEG Fees. Municipal
approvals are entered into the minutes of the AOC’s July meeting and submitted to TWC by the respective AOC representatives.
In the past, TWC would review these budgets at their Annual Budget Meeting in July, after which spending accounts (“PEG
Accounts”) would be set up and the purchasing process set in motion. Equipment would start arriving in January of the next
year.
As you know, the AOC learned earlier this year that during the last 4 years this Budget Meeting failed to set up a PEG
account. During the first 2 of those 4 years (2011 & 2012 Budgets), this was corrected retroactively by Tom Doheny, Director
of Government Relations, whose office is in Ithaca. Then the responsibility for PEG operations was transferred to David J.
Whalen (Director of Government Relations, CNY Division, Northeast) whose office is in Binghamton, NY. TWC has
undergone repeated reorganizations, staff reductions and re-delegation of duties to people in offices at quite a distance from each
other throughout the Northeast. And this was one of them. Up to then TWC’s communications to the AOC were conveyed by
Mr. Doheny in person to the PEGASYS’ Access Coordinator who reported them at AOC meetings which she attends. In turn
the AOC’s requests would be taken by her to Mr. Doheny.
Communications with Mr. Whalen took a while to get up to speed. Eventually the realization set in that no PEG account had
been set up for the 2013 and 2014 Budgets. In the process of getting things back on track, the AOC got a glimpse of TWC’s
process for PEG operations. This process, from PEG Fee collection to expenditure, appears extremely complex and requires
multiple departments throughout the Northeast. Setting up an account is just one step of many. Knowledge of this process fell
through the cracks during the many staff reorganizations. It did not help that TWC never set up designated accounts to keep
track of incoming and outgoing PEG monies.
The AOC was in touch with Mr. Whalen on several occasions, then a formal letter was mailed to him, and then Mayor Supron
wrote to him. Finally in April, the 2013 and 2014 PEG monies were found and accounts for their spending were set up. In Mr.
Whalen’s defense I should say that he did schedule a phone-conference with all the involved parties and directed them to locate
the funds and set up spending accounts for their use. Also the PEGASYS’ Access Coordinator is spending a lot of time moving
the process along and talking to the many people at TWC who have to have a part in it. I just learned from her, that the last
approvals are in place and equipment is being purchased.
The PEG Accounts set up under Mr. Whalen’s tenure are different from those in the past. They are no longer “Capital
Accounts” but “Operating Accounts”. This means that they no longer need to be reviewed at TWC’s Annual Budget meetings,
that purchases can be made throughout the year, and, possibly, that they could include items other than Capital purchases. The
latter is of great interest to the AOC. We would like to have a computer with internet access in the studio, to have archiving
capacity and to have a website and other means of publicity. The City’s Franchise Agreement is unclear on these issues. TWC
has, until now, allowed Capital purchases only. We are planning a meeting with Mr. Whalen to discuss this matter in person.
Regarding the need for publicity, I should ad that currently PEG programming is cablecast in complete anonymity. TWC has
deleted any mention of public access from their website, does not include the PEG channels in its TV menu or in its line-up in
TV guides.
The budget before you is a placeholder budget that will allow the AOC to replace equipment during the upcoming year as
needed and hopefully make the purchases mentioned above. It addresses the current equipment needs of community, government
and educational access. Every year the AOC solicits proposals from local educational institutions for equipment they need to
show their programming on the educational channel. The same is done for governmental entities that use the government
channel to cablecast their meetings and events. No proposals were brought before the Committee this year.
The AOC has removed the word “Capital” from the language of its Resolution to reflect the changes made by TWC. The
Village resolution probably should reflect these changes as well, so that we are not restricted to acquiring only "Capital"
equipment.
Please let me know if you need further information. The Village's resolution is due at the AOC no later than June 30, 2015.

Resolution #7495
WHEREAS, Section 15.12 of the Franchise Agreement between the City of Ithaca and Time Warner Entertainment-
Advance/Newhouse Partnership (TWC) of January 2003 requires the participating municipalities (City of Ithaca, Town of
Ithaca, Village of Cayuga Heights) to provide TWC with an annual budget for public, educational and governmental access
operations by June 30 of each calendar year, and
WHEREAS, the City of Ithaca's Ordinance #2003-17, Par 18-4-G, requires the Access Oversight Committee (AOC) to

BE IT RESOLVED THAT: the attached AOC budget for Fiscal Year 2015 is approved by the Village of Cayuga
Heights Board of Trustees.
Motion: Trustee Salton
Second: Trustee Robinson
Discussion: TWC has been a difficult entity with which to work and has hidden funds over several years. The
Board expressed its appreciation to Ms. Van Leuken for representing the Village on the AOC.
Ayes: Friend, Hamilton, Robinson, Salton, and Woodard
Nays & Abstentions: none
Motion carried
a. TCCOG: Shared Services Workgroup
The recently approved NYS Budget requires each municipality in the state to save 1% of its tax levy through
shared services by June 2015. This means that the Village of Cayuga Heights will need to document a savings of
approximately $24,000. There is no requirement that municipalities work together on the effort, however it is
suggested that it be coordinated by the county. TCCOG has formed a working group. It is not clear if ongoing
shared service savings can be included or if the 1% must be comprised of new enterprises. The group has identified
three areas on which to focus for potential savings opportunities: highways, back-office/administrative functions,
and public safety, specifically fire not law enforcement. A first step for the Highway Department group will be to
inventory public services that are currently shared. The state has not made any grant monies available for these
studies. City and Regional Planning at Cornell, Mildred Warner has a model on how counties can function as an
administration or human resources umbrella for municipalities. Further updates will be shared as available.
b. Letter from Mark Mecenas to the Mayor and the Board of Trustees (Exhibit FYE2015-019)
The Mayor invited Mr. Mecenas to address the Board if he wished. He wanted to express his hope that the
discussion would be non-confrontational and that in the future it would not be necessary to engage an attorney to
communicate with the Board.
A Zoning Review Committee (ZRC) has been formed; they plan to address the entire document instead of adopting
a piecemeal approach. The current commercial district does not extend to Mr. Mecenas’ property. He would hope
to have a decision on his property sooner than revision of the complete zoning code document.
If a tangible proposal were in front of the Board, the proposal could be acted on with a requisite recommendation
by the Planning Board to change zoning through the local law process to expand the commercial district. If any
additional component of zoning would also need to be changed to allow the proposal, that would require a separate
local law process. It cannot be determined which process would involve a shorter time lapse.
Attorney Marcus drew the distinction between the legal responsibility of the Village to respond if presented with an
application that could be accomplished under current zoning law and an application for land use completely outside
current law. The discussion concluded with the acknowledgement that there are too many unknowns to provide Mr.
Mecenas with an answer on his zoning revision question.
d. Bolton Point (BP) Water Rate Structure
This agenda item was moved forward to facilitate the participation of Mr. Roy Staley, one of the Water
Commissioners on the Bolton Point Board representing Cayuga Heights. There is a proposal to institute a quarterly
flat rate which would be charged even if no water is used. Additionally, a per gallon rate would be charged. This
formula has been discussed for several years to address customers who regularly consume less than the 10,000
gallon current base usage. A request for quote (RFQ) returned only one response which was for significantly more
than was budgeted for the study. At the recent BP Board meeting it was decided that the study would not be
contracted and Don Hartill will perform the financial analysis. This would allow a January 2015 implementation.
The Mayor raised the issue of the Village’s sewer billing which is currently tied to water usage. When the previous
change from an annual flat fee to charges based on water usage was made it took several years. An analysis of this
further revision to the sewer fee metric will be undertaken by Mayor Supron, Engineer Cross, Mr. Hartill, and
Treasurer Mangione.
Town of Ithaca Attorney, Sue Brock contacted Village Attorney Marcus whose firm also represents Bolton Point
and the Village of Lansing to discuss an issue related to construction of an additional water main under Route 13.
Both BP and the Village of Lansing believe that there should be redundancy in the system in case of a failure to the
current single line in use. The new 18” transmission main and 10” main for the Village of Lansing would be
constructed by the Village of Lansing. The long-term agreement for BP to use the main should the need arise
would need approval by all the BP participating municipalities of which Cayuga Heights is one. It is believed that
each party should have a different attorney; therefore Ms. Brock will be drawing up the agreement to be considered
between BP and the Village of Lansing. Attorney Marcus felt it appropriate to make the Trustees aware of this
situation. An action item related to this may be on the Board of Trustees July 14, 2014 agenda.
c. Zoning Review Committee
The committee met again and has made headway through the residential section. They are focused on how a
change to zoning may impact the nature of a neighborhood. Mayor Supron will distribute a version of the Zoning
Code which has been highlighted to emphasize those areas which need attention.
Resolution #7496
BE IT RESOLVED THAT: The Proposed Local Law C of 2014 is passed as follows:

9. Report of Chief Steinmetz (FYE2015-020a,b,c)
Chief Steinmetz requests a notarized copy of Local Law 2015-C in order to familiarize his staff with the new law and to
have available to present to any interested party. The Deputy Clerk will provide a notarized copy of Resolution #7496.
It was reported that although there are burglary suspects in recent break-ins they are different from previous suspects.
The investigations are ongoing.
Pat Kannus, Village Court Clerk contacted Attorney Marcus to ask him to appear in court on Tuesday, June 10th. The
Board should assign a prosecutor to act on behalf of the Village when necessary since Mr. Marcus is not a criminal
prosecutor. Chief Steinmetz will determine if the defendants in these cases are represented by an attorney. If they are
not represented, the process can defer to the already established policy of the officer prosecuting their own case.
