"First, I would like to thank all of you and say that I do consider it a
very great honor to be chosen to serve as your chairman again for the
seventh year It may well be that this will be the last year that there will
be a board chairman, as such, in view of our present study to reapportion
and perhaps change our form of county government.
Second, I also wish to thank you for your cooperation during 1967 and
acknowledge the many hours you have put in, other than at board and
committee meetings I must also include Elsie, Don, and Bob and their
staffs without whose almost daily help it would have been tough going
As in the past, you will be faced with many problems this year It is
my sincere hope that in attempting to solve these problems, you have
the courage to resolve them on their merit and the over-all effect they
may have on the county Last year's Con -Con is a shining example of
how they are resolved otherwise!
After reviewing all of the new commitments we assumed in 1967, I must
honestly admit I approach the new year with some apprehension.
By some manner or means, we have got to slow up I our rate of spend-
ing There is a bottom in every barrel With this in mind, I earnestly
ask you to thoroughly explore the need, as well as the cost, for any new
or expanded service that may be asked of the county in 1968
I will try and do my part!"

Mr. Cortright, Social Services, noted a resolution was on the agenda
concerning the Day Care Program and asked permission for Commis-
sioner Armitage and June Rogers, United Fund Day Care Coordinator,
to explain to the Board this program in detail.
Commissioner Armitage noted this Federal -State funded program was
100 per cent reimburseable and is a coordinated service to provide certi-
fied, suitable day-care facilities for children of working mothers In his
opinion it would save the county $17,000 This is an open-end project
as the state has approved this with the understanding if more is needed
the county can add more. At present, the budget for this project is
January 22, 1968 19
$72,000 of which 58 5 per cent will be used for services and remainder
for staffing Commissioner Armitage feels state legislation will be en-
acted requiring mothers receiving ADC to avail themselves of this service
and facility, if feasible, or ADC grants would be discontinued June
Rogers, United Fund Coordinator, explained how the program was set
up and its purpose stating day care homes caring for no more than six
children could be licensed locally by meeting standards established by
law. There was some question in the minds of several supervisors as to
the overlapping of service with the EOG and the lack of the mandatory
aspect of this program However, Commissioner Armitage assured them
this program was needed and would save local funds

tax and apply same to reduce real property tax Mr Graves, Legislative,
noted his committee would explore the pending legislation on this mat-
ter
Mr Cortright, under privilege of the floor, proposed consideration be
given to the taping of board meetings thus lessening the burden of re-
sponsibility on the staff in taking verbatum shorthand records and elim-
inating the possibility of errors due to the increase in business and
projects discussed at board meetings He noted he had on his own in-
vestigated the cost and had found it to be less than $1,000 for a con-
ference tape recorder and microphones. Chairman Bower referred this

ation of the Old Court House Referred to Buildings and Grounds
Committee
Various committee chairmen reported as follows
Mr Culligan, Health, requested, if possible, a recess for his committee
to meet
Mr Ostrandei, Purchasing, noted bids would be opened for the pur-
chase of cars for the various county departments at 1 00 March 27th
and requested members of his committee to be present
Mr Lee, Civil Defense and Fire Protection, noted the annual report of
the Civil Defense Department had been distributed to all supervisors and
requested the committee meet during recess
March 25, 1968 65
Mr Leary, Buildings and Grounds and Courts and Correction, noted
a joint meeting with city officials had been held concerning the proposed
public safety building City officials have cited two contingencies 1)
Parking facilities, and 2) County's purchase of city -owned Bibbins Hall
It was noted that neither the city nor the county are required to furnish
parking for their employees The city will take action on proposed joint
facility and it is anticipated a decision will be forthcoming within the
next month
Mr Leary also discussed the necessity of detention facilities, more
office space and repairs needed to meet state requirements at the County
Jail The majority of the committee has gone on record as favoring the
repairs needed at the jail after assurance from Architect Bagnardi that
the monies spent for these repairs would not be wasted in the event of
an affirmative decision on the proposed pubhc safety building A resolu-
tion will be forthcoming later in the meeting
Mr. Culligan, as a member of the minority of the committee, pointed
out a possible 77 parking spaces and felt parking should not be a deciding
factor He also noted Bibbins Hall would be the answer to the county's
space problem if the city decided to sell it to the county for their pur-
chase price He felt the 4th floor of Bibbins Hall would be the perfect
spot to house the Historical Society and felt any other location for the
jail would not be feasible due to the nearness of the courts and under-
ground tunnel for transporting prisoners to and from the present jail
facility Mr Culligan noted his intention to move the forthcoming
resolution concerning repairs to the jail be tabled until the city had
convened on this matter
Mr Abbott, Civil Seivice and Salaiies, iepoited the items mentioned
in the letter from the Bargaining Unit had been discussed by the com-
mittee and he requested the Personnel Director to reiterate to the Board
the work being done by the Committee and Peisonnel Department to-
gether with their findings on this matter
Mr Hurlbut explained in detail the amount of work and time re-
quired to do a thorough and complete job study to eliminate inequities
now existing in various county depai tments in job classifications, job
descriptions, and salaries Department Heads have submitted to Per-
sonnel in writing their inequity grievances and these are reviewed and
are being brought before the individual departmental committees A
summary report will be prepared including recommendations to be
studied by the Civil Service and Salaries Committee
It was pointed out in the general discussion of this problem that
previously an outside firm had made a job classification, salary survey
for the county and many employees were unhappy with this Suggestions
were made 1) better communications by exchange of minutes between
66 March 25, 1968
the Committee and Bargaining Unit might possibly help solve this
problem, 2) notification to employees that committees are working on
this study and 3) use of publicity
Mr Abbott pointed out, at this time, a meeting had been held with
City Planning Board and Greater Ithaca Regional Planning Board re-
garding the steps to be taken in recruiting a County Planning Director.
A job description has been submitted to the State and a public hearing
is being held classifying this position in the non-competitive classifica-
tion Applications are being received and reviewed
Chairman Bower referred the Bargaining Units requests to the Civil
Service and Salaries Committee for further consideration and study.
Mr Marcham, Human Rights, reported on the successful meetings
now being held by the Commission and noted he would file a written
report on the Commission's activities He mentioned the fact there is no
staff No one other than commission members is available to hear re-
quests and/or complaints from the public In the near future he plans
to meet with county, city and federal officials dealing in similar social
problems to receive their suggestions and aid in handling this need
Mr Graves, Chanman of the Administrative Study Committee and
Charter Commission, distributed to the Board members a memo and
organizational chart which spelled out the basic organization proposal
being studied by the Commission
At this time Mr Graves also voiced his objections to the reference in
the BOLES bulletin that offices for the physically handicapped aie
temporarily housed in "H" Building, as it is his understanding this is a
permanent arrangement not a temporary arrangement Chairman Bower
requested the Health Committee Chairman to explore this matter
Mr Graves, a member of the Equalization Committee, asked the
Board's decision on furnishing the State free of charge a set of tax maps
for the towns of Dryden and Groton and reproducible index maps for
the tax maps covering each town within the county to be used in con-
nection with the alternate route study for the relocation of Route 13
between Ithaca and Cortland The cost to the County for these maps is
$55 00 Board members agreed these should be forwarded without charge
to the State and Mr Payne to be so instructed
At the request of Mr Payne the Board agreed to send a telegram
to the Assembly Rules Committee urging the passage of the Improve-
ment Bill No 154 without delay and the Clerk was so instructed
Under privilege of the floor Mrs Elizabeth Simpson and Mr Morris
Bishop both spoke to the Boaid urging their serious consideration of
the preservation of the Old Court House as it is one of the few remaining
March 25, 1968 67
historical links with the past and it would be to the community's benefit
to restore this old building rather than to raze it
Chairman declared a recess for committee meetings at 11 08 Busi-
ness resumed at 11 26
Mr Lee, as a member of the Education Committee, noted it was his
understanding the Community College curriculum was geared to voca-
tional -technical education rather than liberal arts Mrs Helen Hoefer, a
member of the College Board of Trustees, explained that the State
requires a liberal arts core and the college would be starting with a
limited curriculum meeting state requirements but anticipates a change
in curriculum as the college grows

The Clerk read a memo from Leo Teeter as Chairman of the Tomp-
kins County Civil Service Employees Association Bargaining Unit re-
questing permission to read the following letter to the Board
"It is with regret that the Tompkins County Civil Service Employees
Association, acting on behalf of the employees of Tompkins County,
charges that the Tompkins County Board of Supervisors have violated
the 1968 agreement and contract in that they have not complied with
Section 3, Paragraph 6 This section stipulates that a study to commence
at once of salaries, job classifications, steps within grades, overtime, basic
work week and other relative subjects be conducted during the year 1968
with adjustments being implemented at any time during the year 1968
A letter dated March 22, 1968 was read to the Board of Supervisors
during their meeting on March 25, 1968 asking answers by April 1, 1968
to this question, lack of communication between the Civil Service &
Salaries Committee and two phases of publicity and communication to
employees and the general public We received the following reply which
is quoted in part
`In regard to your letter of March 22, 1968, pertaining to the over-all
study of job classifications and salary ranges for all Tompkins County
employees, the Civil Service and Salaries Committee feels that it needs
an additional meeting to become completely familiar with all the prob-
lems and the solution of this matter We are holding another committee
meeting on Apnl 3 to discuss these items and will advise you of our
decision on Thursday, April 4, 1968
The Civil Service and Salaries Committee feels that this is not a simple
matter and before they could go before the Board of Supervisors and
recommend the expenditure of monies for an outside firm, they need
this additional time before giving you an answer to the course they will
pursue '
April 8, 1968 71
The meeting of April 3rd was cancelled and no reply was forthcoming
on April 4, 1968 We were informed that a joint meeting was arranged
for 9 30 this morning before the meeting of the total Board and that we
should have `specific questions prepared for presentation' but that we
should not expect answers until some future date and time It is our con-
tention that our letter of March 22, 1968 was quite clear as to the ques-
tions of this committee
In view of the foregoing we shall expedite a letter to the local Public
Employees Relation Board noting the alleged violation of contract and
requesting their immediate intervention in this very important matter.
This decision has been based on minutes of meetings that include:
1 April 25, 1967 a representative of the Board stated 'that the salary
problem was one of mass confusion and much work was needed.'
2 A resolution passed by the Tompkins County Board of Super-
visors on August 23, 1967 that a study of salaries and related subjects
would begin immediately
3. That a basic salary study proposal plan was submitted to the Civil
Service and Salaries Committee on February 9, 1968 as a beginning for
gathering information needed for a study but was rejected.
To date, eight months after the original resolution, there has been no
positive approach on behalf of the representatives of the Tompkins
County Board of Supervisors as to a plan for beginning the salary and
allied subjects study "
Discussion followed and Mr Abbott explained the necessary informa-
tion had now been gathered by the Personnel Department and this will
now allow the committee to make a decision on how best to accomplish
the job survey which has turned out to be a much greater job than antici-
pated Mr Abbott requested the Civil Service and Salaries Committee
meet directly following today's meeting
Various Committe chairmen reported as follows.
Mr Culligan, Health, announced that Dr Osborne was granted per-
mission by the Mental Health Board to attend the convention at Notre
Dame through the use of non -tax monies and the use of vacation leave
He requested his committee meet with Mr Hurlbut following today's
meeting
Mr Dates, Airport, noted his committee and the Airport Manager had
met with Mr Steven Teeter, Consulting Engineer, regarding the cus-

ing the cornerstone of the library was being formulated and Supervisors
were invited to attend a luncheon and the ceremonies on April 22nd
following the meeting of the Board President Bahar is to be the featured
speaker and the Ithaca High School Band is also participating in the
program
Also, Mr Kerr asked the consensus of the Board concerning members
of the Library Board of Trustees and employees attending in-state con-
ferences as no monies were allocated for this in the budget this year.
The board, by voice vote, agreed they should attend at the discretion
of the committee chairman and expenses be paid from other allocated
funds
At this time Mr Kerr announced he had no immediate plans for
leaving Ithaca or the Board of Supervisors, as was previously anticipated
due to business interests outside the county
Mr Leary, Courts and Correction, noted the damage done to the
Sheriff's Office as a result of racial tension caused by the assassination
of Dr Martin Luther King
Concerning the joint public safety building, Mr Leary read the fol-
lowing resolution as adopted by the City Common Council on April 3rd
"RESOLVED, that the Common Council reiterates both its support
of the idea of a combined County -City Police Facility and its accept-
ance of the `Bagnardi Plan' for such a facility as provided for in
its resolution dated November 2, 1966, and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Common Council requests
the Board of Supervisors to take action to approve the `Bagnardi
Plan' on the basis of the contract prepared by representatives of the
County of Tompkins and the City of Ithaca, and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Common Council hereby
confirms its previous approval of the plan with the following under-
standing

parking in a location convenient to the police facility and the
court house, and that the Common Council will undertake to share
in the costs of land acquisition and construction on a 50% basis
The area for off-street parking should provide 40 spaces
3 That, in view of the acute situation with respect to County Jail
April 8, 1968 73
renovation and the relocation of the Ithaca Police Headquarters,
and because of the extreme urgency of the need to provide adequate
headquarters, training and detention facilities for the Ithaca Police,
the Board of Supervisors will act not later than its meeting of
April 22, 1968 to adopt the `Bagnardi Plan' and to authorize
completion of working drawings and such other action as may be
required to begin construction at the earliest possible date
4- The City hereby reserves the right to review all contracts before
final disposition "
A meeting of the Buildings and Grounds and Courts and Correction
Committees together with city officials was scheduled for 10 00 a m

cussed and a decision foi recommendation to the Board of Supervisors

Seconded by Mr Graves Discussion folowed and various supervisors
expressed their views both pro and con Supervisor Lee read a state-
ment for the records, to wit
"The absolute need for local governments to cooperate, to consolidate, to
communicate and to coordinate is without question
With few exceptions we have common areas of concern The overriding
concern to all is the pressing dilemma of how to continually provide for in-
creasing services, yet maintaining stabilized tax rates and tax levies
We do not have an abundance of public tax dollars and I submit that we
take inventory of county, town, city and village needs and establish an agenda
of priorities As the Finance and Rev enue Subcommittee of our County -City
Committee has stated in its position paper, 'that we should not examine small
fragments of our functions and services but to begin by looking at a major
I
86 April 22, 1968
integrated composite of functions'
It is my humble judgment that we have some very conspicuous county needs
—these needs are basic essentials in our way of Life I speak of water,
sewer and refuse disposal The continued escalation of special improvement
districts addressing themselves to water and sewer solutions throughout our
county—poses the question of why not a county water and sewer system?
Without these essential services at reasonable costs, our county growth and
development is inhibited
The increase of refuse disposal problems and multiplying Junk cars scarring
our county landscape—poses the question of why not county management of
a refuse facility or facilities?
Our concern this morning is not one of favor or disfavor for a public safety
building—the real question before each of us is a question of priority on lim-
ited tax dollars—is this the appointed hour to erect a one million dollar
public safety building—or—do we have more pressing public priorities?
I submit there are and let us get on with the vital business of solutions,
programs, and actions in the highest spirit of cooperation, coordination, and
consolidation providing for a wider scope of county benefit and county in-
vestment "

Mr. Graves noted all supervisors had received a copy of the proposed
Charter and Code and at this time he would welcome discussion and
comments on it, Article -by -Article The following is a brief summary of
discussion on each Article:
Article I — Sec 1 06 (1) — The definition of the word "Deputy" re-
lates to the order of succession
Article II — Sec. 2 05 (b) — Reapportionment — the wording "most
recent legally permissible census figures" Mr Williamson explained
this would be for the first year only as it would be necessary under
the Charter to reapportion after each decennial census thereafter.
Sec 2 08 (c) — Rewriting of rules of the board — the
board will have until January 1970 to do this.
Sec. 2.10 (c) — Chairman empowered to authorize at-
tendance of officials at conventions — by Board rules this could be
set up to be first cleared by the department's respective committee
chairman prior to the approval of the Board Chairman
Sec 2 13 — Clerk shall (not may) act as Secretary to all
committees — Pointed out this could mean day and night work for
the Clerk by the use of the word shall Mr Dickinson noted this de-
pended on the rules of the Board regarding the attendance of the
secretary stating that they visualized this as preparing the agenda in
advance, etc. but not necessarily requiring the clerk's personal at-
tendance However, this could be mandated
I
126 June 24, 1968
Mr. Graves noted the omission of a provisions for
Deputy Clerk in this section Mr Dickinson suggested this be
handled by adding at the end of the first sentence of the section
the phrase "and such deputies as the Board may authorize" leaving
this flexible in case more than one deputy should be required in
the future
Article III — Budget and Administration — Housing and space problem
for this department — Mr Dickinson said he felt this would not
greatly increase the size of the staff County business is growing and
you may want one more sub -executive and possibly a couple more
clerical workers Most of the responsibility is in clarification — not
m multipling this department Mr Holden noted the assessment
department would require quite a few more employees
Sec 3 04 (a) — Wording "and the assessment function
of said city„ villages and towns, is herewith transferred to the
county government" — Mr Kcrr noted that it is possible to do this
under present form of government However, it doesn't work out.
This section mandates it
Sec 3 05 (b) — Review Board — comment by Mr Lee
that his Town Board members were concerned about how much
weight their recommendations to the Board of Assessors would
have Mr Kerr noted this function is taken out of municipalities and
put at county level However, the ultimate board would not take
anything that had not been reviewed by the local board Mr
Abbott pointed out that it was his understanding a very serious
opposition to this particular Article was coming from the City
Assessor's office One of the objections is that this is a mandate
It was pointed out this Article would do away with reappraisal costs
and eventually equalization rates Mr Dickinson stated the
assessors will spend one-half of their time in over-the-counter service,
and the other half would be in continuous reassessment and after a
period of about five years, the equalization rates would disappear
At this point discussion arose as to what serious objections to
one portion could do to defeat the Charter It was explained that for
the Charter to pass all Units (villages, towns and city) must favor
the charter collectively
Article IV — 4 03 (a) — Budget forecast to be submitted to Executive
Committee on or before May 15 — the question raised if this date
is realistic Mr Dickinson answered this in the affirmative explain-
ing further that with the present system starting July 1st the head
of the financial department hands out forms He has no policy
guidelines and this forecast is so that when these budget request
loi ms are sent out an official policy can go along with it It is an
June 24, 1968 127
estimate and no more If you do the estimate job well, the actual
budget job later on is cut clown and you will be able to give de-
partment heads policy guidelines and you spread out your budget
over a longer period and it becomes less hectic
Article V — Procurement Procedures — No questions or comments
Article VI — Department of Personnel — necesszty of zncludzng towns,
school dtstrzcts, etc, none of which are mentioned — Mr Dickinson
stated the reason these were not specified is that the personnel man
has two functions — one of giving examinations for all local gov-
ernment, the other as personnel officer of county government There
may be a time when the law is changed, or you may want to give it
up, or when the school or BOCES may want to have their own Mr
Hurlbut noted here that under the present law you could not give
this function up if you wanted to and suggested the words "as indi-
cated in the Civil Service Law" be added Mr Dickinson remarked
the firm's counsel felt it was covered as written
Article VII — Department of Law — No questions or comments
Article VIII — Department of Health — No questions or comments
Article IX — County Hospital — Sec 9 03 — "Board of Managers shall
appoznt a Superzntendent — Mr Abbott noted his understanding is
that this position falls in the Civil Service Competitive Class. Mr.
Dickinson stated a good part of the money comes from the State
(remark from supervisors — not the hospital) Requirements of
Public Health Law here sufficiently strict so as to not tie your hands
This is standard Mr Hurlbut noted this position is appointed by
Board of Managers but must meet certain qualifications and must
set for an examination and is competitive on that basis Job specifi-
cations are drawn up and approved by Board and also approved
here In an elected or exempt classification, you do not set qualifica-
tions Mr Dickinson stated that this does not give the Board of
Managers freedom to go their own way They cannot do it without
approval of the line budget We foresaw no deviation from what
you are doing now I would be reluctant to write in a lot of details
when you have the power to make them behave Mr Hurlbut noted
to change this you must hold a public hearing It is State Civil
Service You must pass on it and it is not until this is passed that a
job may pass from one class to another class This job is not in the
exempt class
Article X — Department of Planning — No questions or comments
Article XI—Department of Public Works — Questioned z f Engzneer
posztzon is a competztzve job Mr Dickinson stated the intent here is
this is not competitive in the sense of taking an examination It does
128 June 24, 1968
mean you cannot appoint a man who does not have professional
requirements This is one you get money back on. You are pro-
tected in both of these respects Also, State Highway Law is specific
Article XII — Department of Social Services — Mr Dickinson stated
this was Standard No questions or comments
Article XIII — Department of Mental Health — Questioned why
Mental Health Director is not approved by Board of Representatives
same as Commissioner of Health Mr Dickinson stated this was
Standard
Article XIV — County Library and Article XV — Community College —
Mr Dickinson stated these were Standard. No questions or comments.
Article XVI — Sheriff — Noted only change here was term of office.
Sec. 16 02 — "throughout the county" — does this mean
city too? Mr. Dickinson stated this was Standard County Law and
relevant law provides Sheriff shall have the power to go in anywhere
in the geographical district in case of necessity.
Article XVII — District Attorney — Mr Dickinson stated this was
Standard.
Article XVIII — County Clerk — Mr. Dickinson stated this was Stand-
ard
Sec 18 05 — Questioned if five days was time enough for
submitting monthly statement Mr Dickinson stated this was Stand-
ard It does create a problem but is a mandate of the Comptroller.
This is not a new requirement
Article XIX — Other County Administrative Units — Stated some are
permissive — No questions or comments
Article XX — Intergovernmental Relationships — No questions or
comments
Article XXI — General and Transitional — Discussion on Civil Service
rights and more partzculaily on Civil Service Rules of appointment
and the effect the Charter has on them No mention of the rules in
this section Mr Dickinson felt perhaps this should not be in this
section but in a previous section pertaining to appointments Mr.
Dickinson agreed to review this with the firm's counsel and come up
with something before this goes on the ballot.

Vaiious committee chairmen reported as follows:
Mr Menzies, Animal Health, noted numerous letters and telegrams
from throughout the state protesting the resolution pertaining to the
use of unwanted dogs for laboratory research had been received How-
ever, he noted these letters were primarily based on misinformation re-
ceived by them concerning the origination of the agreement with the
Veterinary College
Mr Updike, Extension Service Representative, spoke on a meeting
with the Board of Directors of the Extension Service at which he and Mr.
Dates attended as Mr Leary was out of town A proposal was discussed
for an additional request of $4,066 to supplement the present 4-H
Budget for the remainder of the year The Board of Directors, after
discussing this with the supervisor representatives, voted down the pro-
posed request They did, however, pass a resolution that gives the Finance
Committee control of all three departments and are going to attempt to
seek funds from other sources, other than the Board of Supervisors. Mr.
Leary noted he met previously with the Directors concerning the above
and urged them to reconsider this request for additional funds in mid-
year

ation Conference in Cooperstown and noted he had the honor and

132 July 8, 1968
"Supervisors and County Legislators Association of the State of New
York " He also noted Tompkins County was mentioned as one of the
more progressive counties of the State
Mr Holden, Education, announced the Tompkins -Cortland Commun-
ity College Budget Hearing would be held at 10 30 a m and requested
President Bahar to briefly address the supervisors and guests on the
progress made to date
President Bahar, in thanking the Board for the honor to appear before
them and for the cooperation received and the resolutions adopted that
have brought the Tompkins -Cortland Community College into one unit,
expressed the swiftness with which the months since February 16th had
gone and that these few months had been rewarding months for him
The State Education Department was reluctant about the college opening
in the Fall due to the short time to prepare and equip the college How-
ever, with much hard work and persuasion, the college will open in Sep-
tember with a student body of 150 President Bahar noted the student
body could have numbered 500 if the college had had the facilities and
teachers to have handled them To date, 216 students have applied State
requirements are a 15 to 1 ratio between faculty and students Therefore,
to keep a conservative budget for the fast year the college can only
handle 150 students The college will offer several degree programs with
eight faculty members hired and the balance of the faculty to maintain
the 15 to 1 ratio will be supplied by the administrators The Adminis-
tration, including President Bahar, will teach this Fall, thus maintaining
the minimum standards A unique program requiring a great deal of
counseling and strong teacher -student relationship is being developed
and tailored to aid the students in determining what they want in life
and what they want to do In regard to the library, there are presently
4,000 volumes plus President Bahar's personal library on campus which
will bring the total to the required minimum of 6,000 volumes by Fall
President Bahar predicted that with a holdover of 100 students and 300
Freshmen, there will be approximately 400 students in the Fall of 1969,
and within a three-year period the college will outgrow the present
campus "Beginning Colleges," Piesident Bahar stated, "need experts
and all the strengths It is impossible to maintain a college and begin a
program without top notch people "
Chairman Bower thanked President Bahar and recessed the Board
meeting at 10 40 to hold the Public Hearing on the Proposed 1968-1969
Budget
The Clerk read the Notice of Public Hearing
Piesent besides the Board of Supervisors were President Bahar,
Thomas Murphy, Dean McConkey of the College Administration and

A lengthy question and answer period followed with the first item
questioned by Supervisor Dates being the $50,000 for the permanent site
and requesting Mr Space, Chairman of the Board of Trustees, to outline
the policy of the Board of Trustees on setting this money aside Mr Space
explained this is for site acquisition only Last year's budget had a similar
amount included The Capital Budget is a continuing budget and may
be used as necessary He suggested both County Boards of Supervisors
start in 1969 to earmark monies in the Capital Reserve Account for
building a community college as he anticipated the need in the next
4 to 5 years The state will not allow the college to include this in their
budget This is the Boards of Supervisors prerogative and will also be
suggested to the Cortland County Board of Supervisors No site has been.

chosen yet The state requires that it be near the geographic center of
the area for it to be suitable for the residents in the total area
Questioned on the percentage of area students enrolled, President
Bahar stated 60%-40% from Tompkins and Cortland respectively with
approximately six students from neighboring counties
Discussion centered around the teaching of technical courses and
President Bahar explained he was awaiting definite answers from the
area industries as to their needs and the market for employing students
locally before expending monies on the necessary expensive machinery
needed to teach these courses These questions, in President Bahar's
opinion, must be answered by industry before he can Justify the ex-
pense In the other courses, arrangements have been made with BOCES
and area schools for the use by the college of required machines such as
computers, etc
Supervisor Lee presented a comparison table worked out by him, after
researching preliminary studies, showing previous initial organization
figures ana the proposed 68/69 figures, together with student operating

Mr Space explained the first year's initial costs are larger The faculty
is primarily department chairmen, which gives the first year students an
enormous benefit, but as you progress you are not as apt to hire the head
of a department Therefore, in his opinion, the sponsoring Boards must
bear with the Board of Trustees in the next few years and realize the
college cannot be supported on a student basis and to also realize we are
fortunate to have the college opening this Fall
Supervisor Kerr spoke on the remarkable job accomplished by the
college officials and stated in his opinion if comparisons were to be
made, they should be made on the costs of running the college for an-
other year with no students which would be extremely expensive
Supervisor Lee cited a statement made in the Corning Community
College beginning stages that it would cost no moie than an extra pack
of cigarettes, and noted it is a very costly proposition In researching
preliminary studies, the predicted budget figure for Tompkins -Cortland
was $336,000 The proposed budget is almost 100% more, Mr Lee noted
Mr Space agreed it is costly but it is an investment in the future The
Board of Trustees felt the proposed budget was a conservative budget
and especially so as the State Fiscal Officer had informed them it was
very conservative and was going to be difficult to live with He stated an
increase was necessary in their original budget figures to satisfy state
officials
No other questions being raised, Chairman Bower declared the Public
Hearing closed and reconvened the regular Board of Supervisors meet-
ing
Committee reports continued with Mr Lee announcing a half-day
seminar to be held July 11th at Big Flats for Soil Conservation
Supervisor Kerr announced at this time the funeral arrangements
July 8, 1968 137
for Harry Gordon and that in lieu of flowers a memorial scholarship
fund was being established with contributions being accepted at the
Town of Ithaca Town Clerk's Office
Mr Leary, Buildings and Grounds, announced he had not received
the plans from the architect for renovation of the jail but would try to
have them available for the August meeting
Mr Abbott, Planning and Public Relations, scheduled a brief meet-
ing of that committee following this morning's session
Mr Marcham, Human Rights, announced that the Buildings and
Grounds Committee had given permission for the Human Rights Com-
mission to list phone numbers under the Court House listing
Mr Culligan, Health, recapping the problem and difficulties en-
countered by the Mental Health Board and the concern of school officials
regarding the Mental Health Clinic, read a letter of resignation from
William Pentland, Chairman of the Mental Health Board, in which he
stated it was imperative that a first class professional leader be hired
to hold the staff of the Mental Health Clinic and to ensure adequate
supervision and full development of the programs His resignation was
prompted due to the lack of authorization to employ a first-class director
at a salary above the mid -point of the salary range A lengthy discussion
followed with Mrs Hoefer, a member of the Mental Health Board, par-
ticipating and explaining the plight of the Board in their attempt to
employ a qualified directoi expressing a fear that the clinic would be-
come inoperable through the loss of employees and that due to inade-
quate salary the acceptable applicants were no longer interested in the
position It was pointed out the mid-range salary at present is $25,750
which is less than salaries now being received by the applicants inter-
viewed Mr Abbott, Civil Service and Salaries Chairman, stated it was
the committee's decision and he had forwarded a letter to this effect to
Mr Pentland that clue to the new Taylor Law and the job classifica-
tion and salary survey now underway it would be unfair and cause irre-
parable damages to several others and to the whole salary negotiation
problems if the Mental Health Board's request for additional salary
was granted at this time The three alternatives explored were 1) to go
beyond the mid -point of the range, 2) to do nothing and await the re-
sults of the salary study which is due by mid-September, and 3) to
employ a part-time director allowing him to have his own private busi-
ness
Mr Culligan requested a decision of the Board as to how this was to
be handled Chairman Bower asked for a show of hands on Alternative
No 1 — 4 members, and on Alternative No 3 — 3 members As no de-
cision was arrived at, Mr Culligan mentioned the possibility of a special
meeting later in the month to solve this pioblem

forthcoming resolution recommending the absolute minimum amount of
repairs necessary to comply with State requirements Architect Bagnardi
submitted to the committees a proposal covering all repairs needed
to update and restore the jail which was built in 1932-33 Said repairs

posal to include roof drains, $20,000, ventilation, $21,500, plumbing,
$65,000, electrical, $50,000, contingency 10%, for an estimated cost of
$172,500 covering the basic repairs to meet requirements This, of
course, Mr Leary pointed out, does not provide for the juvenile de-
linquents who are now housed at Solan at a cost of $35 50 per day in
addition to the salaries of two probation officers to transport them

Conference met with County Personnel Officer, Hugh Hurlbut, County
Treasurer, Donald Stobbs, County Attorney, Robert Williamson, Clerk
of the Board, Elsie Boyd, and Chairman of the Courts and Correction
Committee, Michael Leary, to inform these county officials on the pro-
cedures of the Unified Court System of the State of New York which
becomes effective in Tompkins County in September, 1968 Section 28 of
Article VI of the Constitution confers on the Administrative Board of
the Judicial Conference the authority and responsibility for administra-
tive supervision of employees in the Office of the County Judge, Surro-
gate Court, Probation and Family Court Section 212 of the Judiciary
Law empowers the Administrative Board of the Judicial Conference to
adopt standards and policies consistent with the Civil Service Law relat-
ing to personnel practices, title structure, job definition, classification,
qualifications, appointments, promotions, transfers, leaves of absence,
resignations, ieinstatements and removal of non -judicial personnel in

trative Board and will prepare, conduct and rate examinations and
process examination appeals However, the Administrative Board will
handle all other aspects including position classification, establishment
of minimum qualifications, certification of eligible lists, maintenance of
roster records, review and approval of personnel transactions, and payroll
certifications Heretofore these functions have been performed and
administered through the County Personnel Office Section 29 (d) of
Article VI of the Constitution states that the final determination of the
itemized estimates of the annual financial needs shall be made by the
appropriate governing body of the County Mr Bell stated the establish-
ment of salaries for these positions lies with the Board of Supervisors,
however, it was hoped the Board might welcome the advice and opinion
of the Juchcial Confeience After a lengthy question and answer period
during which Mr Bell stated this transferring of functions from the
County to the Juchcial Conference did not hal,e to be done by a resolu-
tion of the Boatd, it was agreed by both the Personnel Officer and the
County Treasurer that the transition of the Unified Court System for
Tompkins County would become effective September 7, 1968 with the
assumption by the Office of the State Administrator of the Judicial

missioner of Budget and Administration

August 26, 1968 169
The Executive Committee shall meet monthly, and its duties include
coordinating the work of the various Committees of the Board and the

in the performance of his powers and duties
Reapportionment is a function of the Board of Representatives, with

1969, and the Board must adopt a plan for election of the first Board of

Other powers of the Board remain the same, including appointment of
a Clerk of the Board The Article includes the usual statement of
powers and duties of the legislative body, and the usual powers such

ARTICLE III DEPARTMENT OF BUDGET AND ADMINISTRA-
TION — A new department headed by a Commissioner who is appointed
by the Board of Representatives He must have at least 10 years of edu-
cation and/or experience in administration His functions are
1 To serve as chief financial officer of the County Government This
divides into two parts
a) As official "Budget Officer" he is responsible for preparation of
the annual budget up to the time he reports the tentative budget to the
Board of Representatives In addition to the traditional duties in budget
preparation, both the annual capital construction budget and the results
of employee negotiations must be fed into the budget making process at
appropriate times
b) As the "County Treasurer" he receives and disburses all funds,
except for statutory exemptions, such as funds collected by the County
Clerk as deputy of the State Commissioner of Motor Vehicles He keeps
the official books and accounts, and administers the financial business of
the County within budget limits Additionally, he is delegated to audit
all vouchers, within rules prescribed by the Board of Representatives, a
function now performed by Committees of the Board of Supervisors
170 August 26, 1968
2 He serves as the person responsible for staff service to the principal
committees of the Board He processes, digests and summarizes reports,
studies and other such material as requested by the Chairman of each of
the six principal committees and the Executive Committee of the Board
He will receive from all principal departments monthly reports of activ-
ity and work load for processing and reporting to relevant committees
He will work closely with the Clerk of the Board who prepares the
official agenda for the monthly meetings of the principal Committees
and the Executive Committee of the Board
3 He will have general administrative responsibility for the assess-
ment function, since the Department of Assessment is being merged into
the new Department of Budget and Administration He will not interfere
with the professional aspects of assessment, which will continue to be
under the direction of the Director of Assessment Since the Charter
and Code mandates a County -wide assessment operation under the direc-
tion of County Government, it is expected that one-fifth of the entire
County will be revalued every year, or all every five years This will soon
eliminate the present annual equalization procedure It is planned that
one-half of the time of each professional assessor will be given to re-
valuation, and one-half devoted to routine "over-the-counter" service
Annual Grievance Days will be held in each local political jurisdic-
tion The local Board is to be composed of a member chosen by the
local legislative body, a member of the County Assessing Department,
and one of the Representatives who sits on the County Board of
Representatives Then a county -wide Review Board will hear appeals
from decisions of this board, the County Review Board is to consist of
the Committee on Budget and Administration of the Board of Represen-
tatives and the assessors — assessors to sit on the Review Board in a non-
voting capacity
4 As procurement officer of the County Government, he will super-
vise all buying until such time as the Board of Representatives establishes
one central purchasing agent He also maintains the central inventory of
all County property, and supervises the annual inventory of property
and its condition, in advance of budget -making time
5 He is responsible for all central services such as data processing,
mail and messenger service, and reproduction service He also is in charge
of contracts for servicing County equipment, except for building service
and automobiles and heavy machinery handled by the Commissioner of
Public Works
ARTICLE IV BUDGET PROCEDURE—As statutory "Budget Offi-
cer" of the County Government, the Commissioner of Budget and Ad-
ministration is in charge of the process He is directly supervised by the
August 26, 1968 171
Committee on Budget and Administration The principal improvements
are as follows
1 Annual Budget Fol ecast — When the Director of Budget and Ad-
ministration gives to each department head the forms on which to
enter his budget request, he must also give to each department head
certain guidelines for his requests The process for establishing these
guidelines begins no later than April 1 each year
The Forecast must be in four parts (1) the estimate of the expense
budget, (2) estimate of the capital budget, (3) estimate of revenue from
all sources, and (4) a message explaining the forecast All this must be
conveyed to the Executive Committee, after having been approved by the
Committee on Budget and Administration, not later than May 15
The Executive Committee has until June 20 to formulate the guide-
lines It may call for additional information, interview department heads,
or hold formal or informal hearings during this process Staff service is
furnished by the Commissioner of Budget and Administration Informa-
tion copies of the guidelines are furnished to each member of the
Board of Representatives, and they may register objections or question
the guidelines before they become official
It should be emphasized that this is a forecast or estimate, and the
resulting figures are guidelines and no more It is thought, however,
that the process of producing these guidelines will reduce the amount
of work occurring later in the year during the formulation of the actual
budget
2 The Budget Calendar—The budget -making steps are carefully
spaced so as to give each relevant group the maximum time possible
to perform its function
In order to prepare the Capital Budget, a Capital Program Commit-
tee is established, consisting of the Commissioner of Budget and Admin-
istration, as Chairman, the Commissioner of Planning, the Commissioner
of Public Works, and such members of the Board of Representatives as
the Board shall designate Presumably and as a minimum, the Board
would designate the Chairman of its Committee on Planning and Public
Works This Committee must prepare a five year capital improvement
program, and update it annually It then must lift out the undertakings
it recommends for the up -coming budget year, and this last becomes the
genesis for the Capital Budget for that year This must be broken down
project by project and year by year, and contain information carefully
spelled out in Article IV of the Charter and Code
Having received the guidelines and the forms on which to prepare
budget requests, each head of a department or quasi -independent agency
172 August 26, 1968
(such as the Community College, Hospital and Library) is given until
September 1 to submit his budget request If any department or agency
fails to do so, the Commissioner of Budget and Administration may make
up the budget request for that unit
The Commissioner of Budget and Administration is given until Octo-
ber 15 to prepare the integrated and tentative County Budget, and he
must forward it to the Clerk of the Board of Representatives by that
date He must notify any department head or agency of any changes he
has made in their budget request, and this must appear in the record
The Board of Repiesentatives or a Committee designated by it then
has 30 days, or until November 15, to review the proposed budget, in-
cluding its own recommendations, which must be filed with the Clerk of
the Board on that date At this time, it becomes a public record. This
provision has been carefully worded to allow flexibility for the many
years before a major revision of the Charter and Code
In practice, it is assumed that the Board will designate its Committee
on Budget and Administration to do all but the final work, including the
step of allowing the head of any department or agency who so desires to
have a "hearing" before the Committee concerning changes with which
he may not agree — the usual right -of -appeal piocess
On or before November 15, the Board of Representatives must file
the budget with the Clerk of the Board The latter must then publish
notice of the statutory public hearing, which must be held by November
20
The Board, following its public hearing, is given until December 10 to
adopt the budget, the last statutory date for doing this If the Board
fails to do so, the budget submitted by the Commissioner of Budget
and Administration, acting as Budget Officer of the County Government,
becomes the official budget for the ensuing year
3 Budgetary Coizh ols — The Commissioner of Budget and Adminis-
tration is required to maintain an encumbrance record, and no purchases
may be made or other arrangements to commit the County can be
made until the Commissioner has certified that the funds for same are in
the budget and unencumbered
Further, at the beginning of each budget year, the Commissioner and
head of a department or agency may determine a quota for spending
for the year so that he may know during which quarter of the year
expenditures are expected to be made If a depai tment or agency exceeds
its spending rate, the Commissioner is expected to notify the relevant
Chairman of the Committee of the Board, and advise him and the
August 26, 1968 173
Executive Committee of his action taken, or in serious cases, the action
recommended to bring the spending rate in line with the budget
The Article ends with the usual piovisions for transfer of funds, re-
duction or increase in appropt iauons, and emergency and contingent
funds
AR7ICLF V PROCUREMENT PROCEDURES — This article pro-
vides for establishment of common purchasing procedures coordinated
by the Commisssioner of Budget and Administration until such time as
the Board of Representatives shall designate him as purchasing agent
and set up a central purchasing system It provides the usual and
statutory provisions for bidding and exceptions such as emergencies If
purchases are made at prices previously established by bidding (State

encumbered balances are available for each purchase

metropolitan, and community planning and zoning in the County, con-

tions upon referral from municipalities pursuant to the General Mu-
nicipal Law The Department will be assisted by an Advisory Plan-

Representatives with specified representation from the City of Ithaca,
towns and villages
ARTILLE XI ,DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WORKS — A Department
of Public Works is established headed by a Commissioner appointed by
the Board of Representatives Since this is a new department, its func-
tions are spelled out in detail in Article XI Briefly, the Commissioner
is in charge of all physical construction and physical facilities of the

taken, or done for a quasi -independent agency, the Commissioner of

details of the contract
The Commissioner bears a special responsibility in connection with
preparing and up -dating annually the five-year program for capital
construction and for staff work in connection with the Capital Budget

missioner of public works, a county engineer, a county superintendent

charge of these He may, with the approval of the Board of Represen-
tatives, perform work within his capabilities for other units of govern-
ment in the county under service contract arrangements
August 26, 1968 175
ARTICLE XII DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL SERVICES — This de-
partment is continued as it is at present, with no change in the existing
arrangements This is of course a full -county operation, and the bulk of
its work mandated by the Federal or State Governments

partment is continued without change, as a full -county operation It is
undei the direction of a County Mental Health Board, which appoints

tinued as a quasi -independent agency under the direction of a Board of
Trustees, precisely as at present
ARTICLE XV COMMUNITY COLLEGE— The Community College

the Plan adopted by the Board of Supervisors on September 26, 1966
and amendments thereto

elected official, with an adjustment in his term after the Charter and
Code go into effect so as to make the term four years to coincide with

its function carried on by a Medical Examiner appointed by the Board of
Representatives

is established and the office of Commissioner of Jurors established, ac-
176 August 26, 1968

statutory Jury Board consists of a resident Justice of the Supreme Court,
Judge of the County Court, and a designated member of the Board of
Representatives, presumably the Chairman of the new Committee on
Public Safety and Correction This Board appoints the Commissioner of
Jurors, who in a county the size of Tompkins may be "any county offi-

Article grants the County Government the power to contract with any
municipality or public authority, or combination thereof, for the estab-
lishment, maintenance and operation of any facility or service which any
of the contracting parties would have the legal authority to conduct for
itself The provisions of Article 5-g of the General Municipal Law are
the means for doing this until the Board of Representatives provides for
an alternative method This general provision allows the County Govern-
ment automatically to provide such services as police protection or water
and sewer facilities whenever the Board of Representatives so decides,
without further permissive legislation.
August 26, 1968 177

RESOLUTION NO 180 —Resolution C — Indicating Employees Not
Appointed in Accordance with Civil Service
Law and Rules
Mr Abbott offered the following resolution and moved its adoption
WHEREAS, the Personnel Officer of the County of Tompkins has by
resolution duly adopted on July 26, 1968, approved the revised classification
plan for the county service, resulting from the resurvey submitted by the
Municipal Service Division of the State Department of Civil Service, and
WHEREAS, the titles and jurisdictional classification of certain posi-
tions have been changed by such classification resurvey, and
WHEREAS, incumbents of certain positions who have not been per-
manently appointed to and employed in their positions in accordance with
Civil Service Law and Rules may not be vested with any of the rights and
privileges of the title and jurisdictional classification to which their positions
have been allocated in such plan without examination, and
WHEREAS, incumbents of certain positions who have been permanently
appointed to and employed in their positions in accordance with the pro-
visions of the Civil Service Law and Rules are already vested with rights
and privileges to such positions and may not be vested with any of the rights
and privileges of a title requiring different or higher skills and abilities,
now therefore be it
RESOLVED, that the records of the Personnel Officer of the County of
Tompkins show that the following named incumbents are not vested with
any rights and privileges of the jurisdictional class to which their positions
have been allocated and must take competitive examinations to qualify for
appointment to their positions where such positions have been allocated to
the competitive class, or must take non-competitive examinations to qualify
for appointment to their positions where such positions have been allocated
to the non-competitive class

September 9, 1968 215
brief resume of accomplishments during this period he noted the "H"
Building was now fully occupied, the Intensive Care Unit had proven
to be a great asset, more efficient operation and privacy m the Admis-
sions Office, the nurses refresher course given in conjunction with Ithaca
College proved successful with forty-five completing the course and
several now employed at the hospital, and anticipated by the Board of
Managers in the near future is the use of "C" Wing for elderly patients
who are senile as the State has ruled these patients can no longer be ad-
mitted to Willard Also, in the near future, the Board is employing once
again the Rourke Consulting Firm to project and recommend long-range
needs but they will in no way be involved in any recommendation of a
hospital authority The question of available nursing homes is always
being considered and at present the hospital has 201 adult beds plus 10
m the Intensive Care Unit and 25 in the C-2 Wing which is the long-
term care unit In closing, Mr Murray stated the Board of Managers
were happy with the operation of the hospital and in no way did they
take credit for this, all the credit goes to the management

Bargaining Unit and County's Negotiating Committee have not arrived
at a "meeting of the minds" to date, therefore there are no salary figures

available for 1969 Also, he noted during 1969 the Board's decision to
allocate sales tax revenues to the City and towns has reduced the County's
anticipated revenues by $1,000,000 He also noted a sizable increase in
the Social Services budget and several other departments Therefore,
Mr Stobbs stated he was not very proud of his 1969 Tentative Budget
which he assumes will be his last budget due to his retirement in 1970

usal but will be made available prior to the Finance Committee's pre-
sentation

Various Committee Chairmen reported as follows
Mr Culligan, Health, noted the appointment to fill the vacancy created
by the resignation of Philip Allen would be forthcoming as a list of
names of interested persons had been submitted for consideration, also,
the Chairman of the Board of Managers stated the Board of Supervisors
would be notified of all meetings to be held by the Managers and, in Mr
Culligan's opinion, members of the Health Committee should occasionally
be present at these meetings, therefore, he would be calling upon them
to attend
Mr Holden, Highway, reported that his committee reviewed a request
from the Village of Cayuga Heights to assume responsibility for portions
of roads, namely, North Triphammer from the intersection with Hanshaw
to the North village line, Hanshaw from the same intersection to the
intersection of Hanshaw and Pleasant GIove Road, and Pleasant Grove
Road from intersection with Hanshaw to the South village line At the
present time, the Committee is recommencing no action be taken on this
request due to the fact the county has not assumed responsibility on any
other roads from other villages or the city However, a letter was placed
on file with the Clerk and she was directed to notify Mr Marcham of
this recommendation Also, in regard to construction of a bridge in the
Town of Dryden, he reported Mr Stevenson had figures on this of
270 November 25, 1968
$10,000 for the land and $50,000 to $60,000 to replace the bridge A
resolution would be forthcoming at a later meeting
Mr Leary, Buildings and Grounds, reported on various projects being
considered at the present
1) Space problems — Two offices ale being renovated and made avail-
able to house two new probation officers as of January 1st in the
old Court House Also, 9800 square feet of space in the former
Ithaca College Building has been offered for rental by potential
buyers at a cost of $3 00 per square foot with a long -team lease and
option to purchase After inspection of space, opinions were varied
as to feasibility of renting of purchasing or continued exploration
for needed expansion of office space
2) Airconchtiomng — Ventilating Court House — estimated figure
given committee by Engineer from Vestal was $155,000 This in-
cluded a system for equalizing heat as well as ventilating the build-
ing and each room would have its own thermostat This could be
done without defacing the marble and in Mr Leary's opinion would
boost the morale of employees
3) Renovation of Jail — Bids will be opened December 10 at 4 p m
Since the original estimate, the hot water storage tank has been
found to be unserviceable and this will mean an additional cost
of $8500
4) Heating System — In Mr Leary's opinion should be replaced as the
normal life of a plant is 20-25 years and this was installed in 1933
5) Library — Keys to new building have been turned over to Mr Tot-
tey, Building Superintendent, and the Sheriff's Department
furnished manpower to aid with unloading new furmtuie
Speaking as a member of the City's Board of Public Works, Mr Leary
brought to the attention of the Board the County Hospital's request for
bus service City Officials are exploring the possibility if county accepts
the cost of service and if an agreement can be reached that is acceptable
by both the city and county Mr Graves suggested clearance be obtained
from the Public Service Commission before proceeding further on this
request
Discussion followed Mr Culligan suggested the committee investigate
the possibility of the county renting space vacated by city employees at
108 E Green Street when they move to Bibbins Hall Mr Lee, in speaking
about transportation, felt if bus service is to be given to the hospital,
consideration should be given for bus service to the airport and other
county facilities
Mr Marcham, Human Rights, requested a brief recess, if possible,
during this meeting
November 25, 1968 271
Mr True, Insurance, reported Jack Lambert, representative of the
H A Carey Company, Inc , would be unable to appear before the board
under privilege of the floor due to illness However, the Glens Falls
Insurance Company has notified H A Carey Company that as of
January 1, 1969 they will no longer write Workmen's Compensation for
the towns, villages and volunteer firemen due to the experience modifica-
tion which has developed and has been very disastrous for them How-
ever, they will continue to write the county's insurance This means each
town will have to buy their own insurance as of January 1 Discussion
followed as to the legality of such short notice by the company and also
the possibility of the county's going back to its self-insurance plan Mr
Williamson noted that the self-insurance plan had never been dissolved.
However, Mr True reported his insurance Committee recommends each
town buy its own as this would be less expensive for them
Mr Graves, reported he and Mr Dates' attended the open house held
at the County Home during the weekend and the facilities were un-
believable and in his opinion Mr and Mrs Jones should be highly com-
mended for their efforts beyond the call of duty in their work at the
home It was his wish that there was something the board could do to
show their appreciation to Mr and Mrs Jones
Mr Culligan also reported that he and his wife attended the open
house and were very impressed and in his opinion the annual super-
visors dinner shoud be held there in order that all supervisors have an
opportunity to see first-hand the work being done at the county home
and also to show not only the personnel, but also the occupants of the
home, that the supervisors are interested in their welfare
Mr Cortright stated he would again try to arrange this annual dinner
and it was suggested by Mr Dates this be held at the end of the year
after all yearly business was completed

to the board meeting and a Bipartisan Citizens' Committee, composed of
four Republicans and three Democrats, having a total of seven members,

that they had appointed a youth 19 years of age to sit in as an ob-
server for the youth, but with no voting powers Also, according to pro-
visions made in the Charter, guidelines must be established by the board
and submitted to the Citizens' Committee
Mr Dates, Chairman of the Airport Committee, reported that Mr
Miller was cataloging the bids for the T -Hangars at the Airport and a
resolution would be forthcoming at a later date He also reported he and
Mr Cortright attended the hearing held this past week pertaining to the
Bell Station At this time he extended the board's best wishes for success

ferred to the Animal Health Committee

Chairman Dates recessed the board at 7 30 p m for the presentation
of the Proposed Employees' Contract by the Board's Negotiating Com-
mittee scheduled to be held in the Court Room
Approximately 30 of the 45 invited department heads and county of-
ficials, together with members of the Board of Supervisors and news
media, gathered in the Court Room at 7 30 p m for the detailed presenta-
tion by the County's Negotiating Committee The contract as agreed up-
on by the Employees' Bargaining Unit and the Negotiating Committee
was distributed to those present and Mr Abbott, Chairman of the Nego-
tiating Committee and the Civil Service and Salaries Committee of the
Board presided in the presentation
The questions that were most prevalent stemmed around lack of flexi-
bility in the salary scale as it pertained to employing experienced person-
nel and also recognizing longevity and the uniformity of all departments
observing scheduled holidays and vacation periods
Mr Abbott stressed the fact that the slotting of jobs in the proper
classification was based on jobs, not on individuals, as well as on point
systems and facts developed by the Job Classification Study recently con-
ducted and completed by the State Civil Service Department He pointed
out that the Job Classification was not a negotiable item of the contract
but was a management function which could change during the year
in the same manner as had previously been followed by department heads
and their respective Committees
The meeting was adjourned at 9 15 p m and the Board of Supervisors
reconvened at 9 25 and immediately recessed for a brief meeting of the
Negotiating Committee, business resumed at 9 35

directed to execute same on behalf of the County
Seconded by Mr True The floor was opened for discussion and the
Supervisors discussed the items questioned at the open meeting How-
ever, Attorney Williamson advised that the contract could not be altered
or amended at this time In his opinion any changes in this contract
would have to be made after it had been adopted by both the Board and
the Employees Union and the changes must be acceptable to both sides
November 25, 1968 279
At this time Mr Hurlbut reported on a telephone call received from
Mr Kehler, President of the Employees Bargaining Unit Mr Kehler

filing or had been referred to the proper committee for review
Notice of Tentative State Equalization Rates for the Villages of Dry-
, den (85) , Freeville (94) , Groton (105) , Cayuga Heights (80) , and
Trumansburg (81)
Sheriff's Fees for the month of October amounted to $1319 26, Agree-
ment with Charles E Shew, Inc for carpeting of library, Certificate of
Boiler Inspection by the Hartford Steam Boiler Insurance Company for
public library, Statement of the Board of County Canvassers of Tomp-
kins County for 1968, and a letter from the State Social Services Depart-
ment noting that Article XII, Sec 12 01 prescribing the method of ap-
pointment, qualifications and term of office for the Commissioner is
not in compliance with the law as the Commissioner is by law ap-
pointed for a term of five years not at the pleasure of the board as the
county charter states (A file will be maintained in the Clerk's Office
for amendments and changes to the County Charter to be taken care of
at a later date)
At this time, Chairman Bower turned the meeting over to Mr Graves,
Chairman of the Legislative Committee, who in turn introduced the
members of the Citizens Committee on Reapportionment and request-
ed Attorney Williamson to read and report on the guidelines as mailed
to each supervisor and committee member by him and the floor would
be open to discussion and decision by the Board on each guideline as
outhned
Mr Williamson read the following guidelines as prepared by him
after researching the matter
282 December 2, 1968
1 Pursuant to the County Charter, boundary lanes for County
Representative Dastnicts should conform as nearly as possible
to existing Municipal and Ward Boundaries
The Board was in agreement with this guideline and there was no
discussion
2 The Chan ter states that the latcst legal census should be
used
Mr Williamson related the following research "We discussed this
matter with the Office of Local Government and the Westchester Coun-
ty Attorney who headed up a reapportionment plan for Westchester
County It is the consensus of opinion that since there is no recent cen-
sus for the entire county only the 1960 census should be used UNLESS,
in those municipalities of Tompkins County which have not had a
census, it can be shown that the population figures as of 1968 are ap-
proximately the same as they were in 1960 This could be done by in-
vestigation of the voting rolls in the various municipalities, comparing
the 1960 with the 1968 registrations Using this method, it might be
feasible and subject to defense in the event of a lawsuit to use the
latest available census figures in the municipalities which have had a
recent census taken together with the 1960 figures of those municipali-
ties which have not had them "
A lengthy discussion followed this opinion and it was pointed out that
the only towns to have had a special census taken since 1960 were the
towns of Ithaca, Dryden, Lansing and Ulysses The other five towns and
the city had not had a special census taken
MOVED, by Mr Abbott, seconded by Mr Updike, That the reap-
portionment committee use the 1960 census figures Mr Graves called
for a roll call

"In the case of Honig vs Rensselaer County, Supreme Court Justice
Kane felt that nonresident students should not be included in any plan
of Rensselaer No decision was rendered by the court The Attorney Gen-
December 2, 1968 283
eral's Office concurred with the Judge that nonresident students should
not be included and as a result of the plan to be presented to Rensselaer
County nonresident students are not included in the reapportionment
plan See also the case of Davis vs Clinton County which declared un-
constitutional a reapportionment plan because of the inclusion of Clin-
ton State Prison and Dannemora State Hospital inmates without investi-
gation as to their actual residences "
A lengthy discussion followed in which Prof Hacker pointed out that
Cornell University by computer gave him the figure of 1500 students
with home address as Tompkins County out of 12,500 students In his
opinion the decision should be based on what are the consequence of
a) total population or b) over 21 or adult population as there is no
census information on students, only on age Prof Hacker stated the
ratio of "under 21" and "over 21" balances between the city and towns
MOVED, by Mr Abbott, seconded by Mr True, That the reappor-
tionment committee use Adult Population Basis Discussion followed
and Mr Lee suggested that perhaps we could stipulate "resident" adult
Mr Graves stated he had confidence in the reapportionment commit-
tee and if they could come up with a better solution, the board would
be glad to listen and that these guidelines were not binding but did lend
authority Mr Graves called for a roll call

At this time Stephen L Bishop, Edwin B Cobb and Russell C Holt,

and acceptable to the State Department of Health Said study placed

ADJOURNED MEETING
Monday Evening, December 2, 1968
In the absence of the Chairman, Supervisor Harris Dates declared
Chairman pro tem at the November 25th meeting, which was ad-
journed to December 2nd, presided and called the Meeting to order
at 730 pm
PRESENT Supervisors Dates, Cortright, Updike, Holden, Kerr,
Graves, Leary, Abbott, True and Lee — 10
ABSENT Supervisors Ostrander, Griffin, Marcham, Culligan, Men-
zies and Bower — 6
ARRIVED Supervisors Ostrander (7 36) , Griffin (8 40) , and Culli-
gan (9 00) — 3.
At this time members and guests participated in the Pledge of Al-
legiance to the Flag
Mr Abbott, Chairman of the Civil Service and Salaries Committee,
reported the Employees had accepted the Contract as a result of their
votes, to wit 519 votes cast with 343, Yes, 175, No, and 1 blank
Under privilege of the floor Mr Kerr raised two questions. The first
concerned the town Supervisors being unable to run for dual offices
next year which in turn Mr Kerr felt would have a definite bearing on
the districts It was pointed out the Charter provision directs the Re-
apportionment Committee to maintain wherever possible the existing
boundary lines Attorney Williamson also pointed out that to change
the ruling prohibiting Supervisors from holding two elected offices at
the same time it would have to be a Constitutional change which would
take approximately two years
The second question raised by Mr Kerr concerned the process by
which a department appeals job classifications He cited specifically
positions in the Assessment Department where employees had been
classified as typist when, in his opinion, this classification did not ac-
tually fit their required duties He also noted that the Director's Classi-
fication was not graded according to the duties and responsibilities af-
fecting his position under the Charter and that beginning in 1969 the
organization of this department would get underway
Mr Abbott stressed that job classifications were not part of negotia-
December 2, 1968 285
tions but were a management function and is a continuing process
throughout the year Departments appeal classifications through their
respective Committees who in turn review and recommend to the Civil
Service and Salaries Committee for review and action Referring to the
Director's Classification, Mr Abbott stated in view of the fact the
Charter was passed, this position would be reclassified, however, those
duties will not be effective until 1970 It was once again noted that it
was imperative to consider the organization duties of the Director start-
ing in 1969
At this time Mr Kerr polled the Equalization Committee and it was
agreed by those members of the Committee present that the request for
i reconsideration of job classifications for positions in the Assessment De-
, partment be recommended to the Civil Service and Salaries Committee
, Equalization Committee Chairman Kerr gave the written appeal to
Civil Service and Salaries Committee Chairman Abbott with the Com-
mittees recommendation that the job classification for two clerical posi-
tions in the Assessment Department and the position of Director be
reviewed and reconsidered by the Civil Service and Salaries Committee
The Chairman pro tem called a iecess at 7 40 p m for the members
of the Board to attend the Public Hearing on the Budget scheduled for
800 pm
At 8 00 p m approximately twenty-five department heads and in-
terested citizens gathered for the Public Hearing on the Budget The
Clerk read the Call and Chairman Dates introduced each membei of
the Board and Staff, prior to introducing the Budget Officer, Donald
Stobbs
Mr Stobbs presented the Tentative Budget as approved by the Super-
visors and the floor was opened for questions and answers In answer
to the question as to whether the position of County Sealer was a full-
time or part-time position, Mr Updike stated this was a full-time posi-
tion (Letter placed on file relating time allocation of this position )
Social Services Commissioner Armitage questioned the amount of esti-
mated revenue for Medical Assistance David Saperstone spoke on rising
costs and how much additional taxes would be needed Mr Stobbs read
the apportionment figures noting each town would receive sales tax
credit to be apphed against their share of the County Budget and the
City was given a cash lump sum payment to be used as the Common
Council directs In giving City rates, the City rate for 1969 is $6 47 com-
pared to $3 57 last year It was pointed out, if we had been able to
credit the sales tax distribution to the City as we have done for the
'towns, the City tax rate for 1969 would have been reduced to $1 36
However, the law states the City's share shall be in cash Mr Kerr also
pointed out that if the City and towns had not requested the sales tax
286 December 2, 1968
distribution, $1,000,000 more would have been applied to the County
budget to reduce the tax levy and the budget for 1969 even with in-
creased costs would have been less than 1968's budget Mr Saperstone
also protested the number and cost of the lights in the new library
building, and also urged the Supervisors not to turn over Social Services
to the State as it was better to have local control on these costs
Peter deWysocki as a representative of and on behalf of the Tompkins
County Extension Service expressed their appreciation and thanks for
the support given noting even though their total request was not granted
they realized that it was a challenge facing them to use the monies
allocated to their programs wisely and properly
Florence Rumph read a prepared statement from the Taxpayer's
Association in which they urged that any future projects requiring large
expenditures be closely scrutinized by the Board, every effort be made
to economize, and County government set an example for the rest of the
community to follow (Statement placed on file with the Clerk )
There being no further questions or comments the Chairman thanked
Mr Stobbs for his efforts in preparing a well -thought out budget and
thereafter declared the Public Hearing closed at 9 12 a m The Board
reconvened for business immediately
MOVED, by Mr Graves, Seconded by Mr Updike and Carried That
resolution concerning Mr Cole's retirement be presented at this meeting
RESOLUTION NO 269— Adoption of Budget
Mr Graves offered the following resolution and moved its adoption
WHEREAS, the Tentative Budget for the year 1969 has been duly pre-
sented to the Board by the Budget Officer and a Public Hearing has been
duly called and held pursuant to the provisions of Section 359 of the County
Law, and all persons desiring to be heard concerning same have been heard,
now therefore be it
RESOLVED, That pursuant to Section 360 of the County Law, the said
Tentative Budget be and hereby is adopted, subject to correction of manifest
errors by the Clerk of the Board and the Budget Officer, as the budget of
Tompkins County for the year 1969
Seconded by Mr Updike Discussion followed concerning the amount
of revenue declared for Medical Assistance and Mr Stobbs stated there
was a possibility of reimbursement being reduced and therefore he had
not anticipated as great a revenue for this account

Mr Dates, Chairman of the Finance Committee, brought to the at-
tention of the Board the recent requests for additional office space; the
Buildings and Grounds Committee's efforts in studying and recommen-
dation for solving these needs, the offer of rental of space from a private
concern interested in purchasing the nearby Ithaca College property, and
378 December 9, 1968
the recent inspection tour by a number of Supervisors together with Con-
ference with Ithaca College officials regarding their property on Buf-
falo Street
In view of the long-range need foi additional office space and the
cost of renting same, it was Mr Dates' desire for the board to consider
a firm purchase price for the complete complex of Ithaca College proper-
ty to be offered the College officials immediately
A lengthy discussion followed and Messrs Abbott and Marcham
voiced their opposition to purchasing this property based on the lack of
information on comparison costs, costs of renovation for use, actual
additional required square footage space needed, demolition and re-
building costs and the location of said buildings in a high-priced down-
town area
Messrs Leary and Dates noted the 38,000 additional square feet of
office space available by the purchase of this property would be needed
and used in the future, that additional administration buildings should
be near the Court House, and further that transportation to an outside
aiea would create a problem Attorney Williamson, together with Mr
Leary, pointed out that this property is already tax exempt property
and it is better to buy tax exempt property than to take property off the
roll Messrs Updike, Bower, Lee and Kerr spoke in favor of this pro-
posal with Mr Kerr noting this property would serve the purpose as is at
the present time
Mr Dates stated the asking price for the entire complex is the
Assessed Value or $373,100 He, theiefore, MOVED, seconded by Mr
Updike, That the Board authorize and direct the Chairman of the
Buildings and Grounds Committee to offer Ithaca College the sum of
$300,000 for the Ithaca College complex located on Buffalo Street
adjacent to the Court House and DeWitt Park

SUMMARY OF
ANNUAL REPORT OF AIRPORT
submitted by
Glenn A Turner, AAE, Manager
(Detailed Report on file in office of the Clerk of
the Board of Supeivisors)
Airport activities foi 1968 show a return of revenues over expense of
operation
Due to the lack of personnel dui ing the summer months, the only big
planned project undertaken and completed was the sealing of pave-
ments around the buildings The land acquisition for the North West
Clear Zone is nearly complete, except for 12 acres This acreage is in the
process of being secured This spring this zone will be cleared of tiees
The F A A has furthered the delay on the installation of the distance
measuring equipment in the Omni Range Station, located on the field,
for at least 18 months This is clue to problems being generated within
the equipment and the financial end We are being considered for an
Instrument Landing System this year, however this will depend on what
is found in its study and land terrain for its proposed location We will
know mole about this this Fall
The air carriers operations show interesting facts Their scheduled
departures were 3% less than 1967's with a 7% increase in passenger
hoardings
In June and thereafter the Post Office Depai tment reduced the amount
of Anmail by about 45% out of the Airpoi t The Air Express declined
another 10%, again due to its service and cost, while Air Freight in-
cieased over 67% because of better service in local handling
Over 35% of boarding passengers were connecting to other National
and International Gainers About 20% were traveling to other cities by
ground service conveyances to obtain a better source of East and West
service Their Maintenance Department here holds the best rating for
Mohawk's entire system, regarding on time departures for aircraft sta-
tion over night There aie two aircraft stationed here every night for
this work with seven personnel in this department
Chartair showed decreases in all operations over 1967 (except in fuel
sold) despite large increases in General Aviation nationally
The Ithaca Limousine Company showed a slight decrease in passen-
gers carried It is believed this is due to our improved public parking
facility Crew members increased from 3257 in 1967 to 8034 in 1968
Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors 509
There are from 6 to 9 crew members staying in Ithaca every night The
, out-of-town trips increased from 135 to 265 over 1967.
The Rent-A-Car agencies showed a slight decrease in commissions
Avis showed a decrease while Hertz, an increase
Snow fall was 41 inches less than 1967, while our area median re-
mained at 71 6 inches per year
East Hill Flying Club purchased one new aircraft and showed an
average increase throughout the year
I wish to express my appreciation for the support and cooperation re-
ceived from the Airport Committee, Board of Supervisors and all other
County and Town Departments

SUMMARY OF
ANNUAL REPORT OF THE TOMPKINS COUNTY
HUMAN RIGHTS COMMISSION
submitted by
Myron Stanton, Charman
During 1968 the Commission has tried to make itself more accessible
to the minority group members whom it is designed to serve To this
end, it has abandoned its pievious practice of meeting at the County
Court House and now convenes at either the Northside or Southside
houses At the same time, it has changed its meetings from occasional
events to regularly scheduled monthly public gatherings
The Commission members along with 80 volunteers from Ithaca area
used their own time and resources to do a survey of Negro opinion on
such important topics as housing, employment, and education discrim-
ination It has attempted to promote more efficient and speedy handling
of discrimination complaints To this end, the Commission refers to
the State Human Rights Division in Syracuse all complaints which fall
within State luiisdiction and attempts to conciliate other complaints,
for which there is no present legal remedy In the last year, the Commis-
sion had handled several such cases which was conciliated by a special
Commission sub -committee
The Commission has been attempting — unsuccessfully so far — to se-
cute funds from the Tompkins County Board of Supervisors to employ
a part time field worker The worker's job would be to keep in touch
with young negroes, state agencies, and private employers in order to
place people in good jobs
As a part of its campaign to win the trust of the community, the
Commission is now embarked on an extensive effort to publicize itself
and its services To this end, volunteer students from Cornell University
have put up posters acquainting people with the Commission and are
distributing among negroes educational pamphlets supplied by the
State Division
The Commission, through its Complaint Committee, was involved in
six cases of complaints of discrimination, or alleged discrimination All
were investigated, to some degree, by our committee Four cases involved
a dispute between a 12 year old child and a store clerk, and one case
involved a dispute between a negro lady and a local merchant

SUMMARY OF
ANNUAL REPORT OF THE TOMPKINS COUNTY HISTORIAN
submitted by
W Glenn Norris
(Detailed report on file in the Office of
the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors)
On September 13, 1943, the Board of Supervisors appointed me to the
office of Historian for Tompkins County It is my pleasure to present
my annual report for the year 1968, the 25th year since that appointment
During those years as Historian, I have been involved in promoting
interest in, and development of the Museum of the DeWitt Historical
Society of Tompkins County Briefly, I would like to state that the Mu-
seum is assuming an important place as a cultural institution in the
county Attendance is increasing each year and public interest in pre-
serving oui county's past is evident by donations of historical material,
coming from all parts of the county and country
For the past year I have been well occupied in carrying out the duties
of my office I gave four talks in the county on local history, reviewed
three manuscripts on separate subjects of local history, assisted fifteen
persons seeking historical information, met with, and helped several
students in history studies, answered a considerable grist of mail in-
quiries of a genealogical and historical nature I also wrote a new chap-
ter, "Early Man in Tompkins County, ' to be included in the forth-
coming second edition of my Indian Trails booklet, first published in
1944, an undertaking that requned extensive research Profits if any,
will accrue to the publisher, the DeWitt Historical Society of Tompkins
County, Inc
I attended a meeting of Historians of the State, at the Town Officers
Meeting in New York City last February My office hours are Tuesdays
and Thursdays in the Museum where I am available to any interested
person
Two events transpired during the year which the Board of Super-
visors initiated and which I recognize as of historical importance
1 The laying of the cornei stone of the new Tompkins County
Library on April 22, 1968, and the near completion of the building
by the end of the year
2 The vote of Tompkins County people in the general election in
November to adopt a new County Charter, a mandate that will change
the form of county government that has existed since the organtzaton
of the County in 1817
Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors 515
I hope to continue my research on historical happenings in the county,
before they are lost to posterity, and thank the Board for their interest
in furthering my efforts in this direction
We, the officers of the DeWitt Historical Society of Tompkins County,
Inc , appreciate very much the cooperation of the several Board of
Supervisors who have shared in the support and development of the
Museum in the Old Courthouse for the past twenty-five years

of the DeWitt Historical Society Museum and Library However, with
the cooperation of the Curatoi, the facilities of the Museum and Library
were made available to the above on days other than Tuesdays and
Thursdays when we are obligated to be open to the Public Interest
continues for further lecture programs, exhibits and research Much
of the research is being done on an academic basis I've requested of
those who have completed their papers, to deposit a copy for the So-
ciety's Library for filing and future use by others
516 Tompkins County, New York
A great deal of the success with which the DeWitt Historical Society
has met in the previous years is due to the efforts of William Heidt, Jr ,
who has generously donated his time and skills without financial re-
muneration
While the DeWitt Collection has grown in number and value, the
Curator has suggested to the DeWitt Historical Society for study that
certain steps must be taken to maintain the artifacts in their present
condition, to wit repairs on building, installation of humidifier, photo-
graphing of each individual object for purposes of insurance, identifica-
tion and inventory, and a suggested salary increase for Curator, due
to the growth in complexity and time consumption of the position

ANNUAL REPORT OF THE TOMPKINS COUNTY SHERIFF
submitted by
Robert Howard, County Sheriff
(Detailed report on file in the Office of
the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors)
The Sheriff's Office has made many accomplishments during the past
twelve months These accomplishments would not have been possible
without the dedicated personnel that I have been fortunate to have in
this department Crime in Tompkins County has increased again this
year as it has throughout the Country Increase in crime calls has in-
creased demands on this department by the residents of Tompkins
County
The Tompkins County Sheriff's Department investigated 778 Motor
Vehicle Accidents in 1968 which was an increase of 154 over 1967 County
patrol cars were on the highway 24 hours per day in 1968 and Deputies
made 1,129 arrests for Vehicle and Traffic Law Violators 1,213 com-
plaints were handled during the last year, an increase of 50 over 1967,
resulting in 65 felony arrests, 253 misdemeanors, and 140 for minor of-
fenses Over $1,316 63 was collected by this Department for restitution
on fraud checks
We had fifty-six (56) more County prisoners in the earl for this year
than we did last year We housed 283 prisoners for the City of Ithaca
and turned over to the Tompkins County Treasurer $4,162 00, received
for the care of the prisoners

Our Navigation Department patrolled Cayuga Lake again this year
and issued 43 summons for violations on the Lake, of these 42 persons
were convicted and paid fines Our boat was on the Lake from April
27, 1968 thru September 2, 1968 There were no Fatal Accidents con-
nected with Navigation on Cayuga Lake this year
During 1968, one man from this Department attended the Basic
Police Officers training at Broome Tecli and was the President of the
class The members of this Department and myself know that without
the help of the public, other police agencies m the County, news media
and the County Board of Supervisors, our jobs would be much more
difficult
Juvenile Program 225 boys were sworn in as Jr Deputy Sheriffs'
through a program presented to sixth grade students in ten outlying
elementary schools Other juvenile woi k accomplished by the Sheriff's
Department in 1968 included talks to kindergarten and first grade
classes on "The Job of the Policeman," a film on child molesting was

SUMMARY OF
ANNUAL REPORT OF HEALTH DEPARTMENT
submitted by
Dr Robeit H Bioad, Commissionei
(Detailed report on file in the Office of
the Clerk of the Boaid of Supervisors)
MATERNAL AND CHILD HEALTH — Tompkins County is especially
fortunate in the quality of obstetiical and pediatric services and their
use by the people of the county There has been but one maternal death
(death related to pregnancy) in the last 20 years and that in 1955
520 Tompkins County, New York
There were no deaths of infants or children between the age of 28 days
and 5 years in 1968 in the county CHILD HEALTH CONFERENCES
— Since the advent of the Medicaid Program, the number of infants and
pre-schoolers attending and the total attendance at Child Health Con-
ferences has gradually declined to 50% of 1965 The average attendance
per clinic decreased despite the fact that in 1968 there were held 38 less
clinic sessions than in 1965
NURSING — Payment for services to the ill at home is the major source
of income, resulting from the contract under Medicare and charging
Medicaid for persons eligible, especially after benefits under Medicare
are exhausted Monies received for such services in 1968 totaled $66,694 51
However, included in this figure are services rendered by Home Health
Aides for which the Health Department paid the Family and Children's
Service of Ithaca $26,384 45 thus a net for nursing service of $40,310
ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH — The comprehensive projected study
of water resources and potential water supplies for the county was
completed The study of sewage disposal for the southern half of the
county completes the potential method of sewage disposal for the entire
county for years to come The completion of the Dryden Village system
of disposal further reduces the pollution of Fall Creek The Village
of Trumansburg now has an adequate water supply as the result of
tying in its new source from Cayuga Lake West Danby and Newfield
are progressing in the development and construction of their public
water supply systems HEALTH PLANNING — The various committees
of the Tompkins County Comprehensive Health Planning Advisory
Council are in the process of categorizing and documenting the health
facilities and services that exist as a base line toward planning and es-
tablishing priorities for the future It is expected that the funded con-
tracting planning agency with whom we will be working will be
CHIPS of Syracuse
VITAL STATISTICS — Population Estimate July 1, 1968, 74,731, (Esti-
mate New York State Department of Health) Resident live births, 1,122,
non-resident, 143, resident deaths, 502, non-iesident, 19, of which num-
ber 386 or 80% of these deaths were persons 60 years of age or older
with heart disease being the major cause of all deaths recorded for a
total of 216 while Cancer was responsible for 67 deaths
INFLUENZA — Probably of the anticipated Hong Kong strain, hit
Tompkins County on or about December 15 Deaths from pneumonia
doubled for approximately a month REQUIRED IMMUNIZATIONS
— The Legislature of the State of New York enacted legislation re-
quiring all children entering any school in the State in 1969 to be im-
munized against measles and small pox, this is in addition to poliomye-
litis (1966) Schools of the county have been advised COMMUNI-
CABLE DISEASES — Very lightly reported, one case of measles and
infectious hepatitis was less prevalent than in the last two years with
Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors 521
19 cases recorded VENEREAL DISEASE — More infectious syphilis
was discovered than in many years, even though such cases totaled but
four Gonorrhea — 60 cases, however the cases reported locally undoubt-
edly are not the total as persons often seek medical care for such dis-
eases elsewhere MALARIA — One member of the armed services re-
turning from Vietnam, and a student from Pakistan were diagnosed as
having malaria
RABIES — Despite the fact that Tompkins County has had no known
rabid animals since July 1965, nonetheless, we must continually be alert
to this possibility The usual dog vaccination clinics were not held in the
fall due to inability to secure vaccine They will be rescheduled in the
spring TUBERCULOSIS — Records show 15 active cases of which 8
are at home and 7 hospitalized, arrested cases are 7 for a total of 22
cases All patients with active disease, at home, have been stabilized on
drug therapy and are under routine clinic supervision All arrested
cases are kept on the active roster for 2 years after cessation of drug
therapy and maintaining an apparently inactive status MALIGNANT
DISEASE — Two hundred forty-six malignancies were reported in 1968
(average 1963-1967, 268) Fifty-seven persons were reported with the
second malignancy Sixty-eight persons died as the result of cancer, and
there were 84 deaths of persons having malignancies from other causes
Thus, theie weie about 33 new malignancies pei 10,000 population and
deaths from cancer 9 1 per 10,000 Skin cancer was most prevalent with
111 cases recorded while lung cancer, 4 cases were recorded
PHYSICALLY HANDICAPPED CHILDREN'S PROGRAM — The
lowering of income eligibility under the Medicaid Program increased the
number of requests for financial assistance for care of handicapped chil-
dren In 1968, 94 cases weie processed, 62 of which were Medicaid
eligible, and 33 were paid for in whole or in part via public funds (50%
State and 50% County) Monies spent in caring for the 33 children
(including parent but less any insurance) totaled $18,695 76, an aver-
age of $566 60 per child
MEDICAID — This was a year of change and adjustment in the medical
program under Medicaid First there was a sharp cut back in the number
eligible as recipients Then, the services supplied were expanded Finally
participating physicians were classified, approved, and disapproved All
of this resulted in a real need for communication between the depart-
ment and the professionals supplying services The fact that these ad-
justments were accomplished with relatively little confusion in Tomp-
kins County testifies to the good will of the professionals and the efforts
of the Medical Care Committee of the Tompkins County Medical So-
ciety
The main function of this office is to administer on a local level the
program as established by the State It has to act as a two-way pipe line
between the individual supplier and the State Health Department In
522 Tompkins County, New York
addition, much time is spent as a medical resource for consultation by
the personnel of the Social Services Department The main areas here
aie the Child Welfare Division, the Aid to the Disabled Program and
their Medicaid office (medical economics)
While much of the emphasis is on maintaining or improving the qual-
ity of the medical care of the indigent patients of Tompkins County, it
is still necessary to know how much is being spent for what, also, where
and why A system is gradually being developed to show this information
and to use oui tax dollars to the best advantages The table below
summarizes some of these statistics for the last two years
Pei sons Ain WW1 Spent
Enrolled in Nursing
Medicaid Phys Dentist Drugs Homes Hospital Total
1967 7180 485,000 311,000 215,000 490,000 402,000 1,936,000
1968 4146 413,000 224,000 250,000 679,000 517,000 2,204,000
Looking ahead to 1969, the view is fat h om clear There is much
political uncertainty and rumors of cut backs However, if the fine spirit
of cooperation can be maintained, the Medicaid Program in Tompkins
County will continue to function with as little interference in the normal
medical care pattern as possible under the applicable legislation This is
certainly the goal of all concerned
DENTAL DIRECTOR - MEDICAID — Requests for treatment requir-
ing prior approval 762, and of this number 29 approvals denied and 35
decisions pending or requests not reviewed Number of patients clinic-
ally examined was 423 No dental services for any patient exceeded $500
PUBLIC HEALTH NURSING - STAFFING — The staff positions of
the nursing division remained one director, two supervisors (including
one Home Care Co-ordinator, 9 public health nurses, 4 registered pro-
fessional nurses, and one licensed practical nurse) STATISTICS — The
nursing division sent statistical information concerning its activities to
the State Health Department The data is compiled by computer, and
monthly, quarterly, and annual visit and time totals are sent to the
agency
HOME CARE PROGRAM — Apparent decrease in visits to patients with
chronic disease Great increase in demand for home health aide services
Patients over 65, i epresent 70% of all the chronically ill patients seen,
and are the major utilizers of all services available in the home care
piogram PAYMENTS FOR SERVICE — As a Medicare approved
Horne Health Agency, the Tompkins County Health Department charges
fees for therapeutic nursing and physical and occupational therapy visits
The Social Security Aclmmistration also is billed for home health aide
services to eligible persons over 65 Until October, 1968, rental fees
were charged tor loan closet items In 1968, a total of $74,949 32 was
Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors 523
billed, and $66,649 59 received from Medicate, Medicaid, Blue Shield
or self pay patients As noted about 70% of the therapeutic nursing case-
load is over 65, and approximately three quarters of total payments came
from Medicare It is anticipated the same proportion of elderly patients
requiring therapeutic service, and of medicare payments will continue
in 1969
HOME HEALTH AIDES — Demand has nearly doubled and part of
the Homemaker Services of the Family and Children's Service, home
health aides are supervised by registered professional nurses from the
Health Department The home health aides also offer companionship
and some supervision of patients in performing activities of daily living
Most of the patients seen are over 65, and require the service for a
considerable period of time MEALS ON WHEELS — Meals are pre-
pared in the hospital kitchen and are delivered by volunteers from wom-
en's groups in several of the Ithaca churches The Home Care Coordina-
tor at the Health Department continues to screen referrals and clear
them with the patient's doctor The program has enabled many persons,
who would otherwise have been institutionalized, to remain at home,
and has received enthusiastic community support Forty people have used
11 this service since the program began in July, 1968, most are over 65,
LOAN CLOSET UTILIZATION — A marked decline in items loaned
land period of use which appears to be due to a change in Medicare legis-
lation which was amended to include purchase as well as rental of dur-
' able equipment Equipment available from the Loan Closet (free of
rental charge as of October 1968) includes such items as walker, wheel
chair, Porto -lift, etc
PREVENTIVE SERVICES — Nursing visits to patients with chronic
disease have been supplemented by those of home health aides, this has
enabled the staff to devote more time to traditional health department
services MATERNAL - Child Health — Visits to antepartal patients as
well as to mothers and babies continued to increase in 1968, (1658 in
1968, 1522 in 1967) It is hoped visits to this important group of pa-
tients will continue to increase PARENTS' CLASS — 163 enrolled with
134 completing the class of 11 series taught by the nursing staff CHILD
HEALTH CONFERENCE ACTIVITY — Total attendance from all
towns and the City was 1,456 Since Medicaid became effective in 1966,
there has been approximately a 50% decrease in the number of infant
and preschool children attending these clinics and a proportionate de-
crease in total visits The number of sessions was reduced in 1968 There
will be a further reduction in 1969, and a reopening of a clinic in one
area
PHYSICAL and OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY — Only 82 physical
therapy visits were made in 1968, less than one quarter of those in 1967
Shortage of therapists in the rehabilitation unit, limited the amount of
time the physical therapists assigned to the Home Care program could
524 Tompkins County, New York
devote to patients A part time physical therapist is now available
to the nursing division three mornings a week 1969 should show an
increase in the utilization of these important services HEALTH SUPER-
VISION VISITS — 498 visits to 89 patients 65 years and over and 477
visits to 329 under 28 days The highest average number of visits per
patient was 6 0 in the age group 20-44 with records showing 556 visits
to 92 patients SCHOOL IMMUNIZATION CLINICS — More Clinics
may be requested in 1969 as a result of the New York State law requir-
ing all children entering school to be completely immunized against
measles, smallpox and polio
ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH (SANITATION) — Events of inter-
est are Water Supplies—kept under surveillance and sampled at regu-
lar intervals, Comprehensive Water Supply Study Completed by Met-
calf and Eddy, Engrs As a supplement to this study, Health Depart-
ment has undertaken a water quality study of Cayuga Lake water at a
depth of about sixty feet Cornell University— Planning is under way for
the design and construction of a new and separate water supply intake
into Fall Creek to increase the availability of raw water Trumansburg
Village — completion of construction of new water supply source to meet
needs for many years West Danby Water District — new system will go
into operation early in 1969 Newfield Water Dtstrzct — Contracts have
been let and construction started for a complete water supply system
to be completed in 1969 Lansing, Dzsti tct #1— construction of exten-
sions to District #1 in the southern part of town will continue in 1969,
which when completed will complete the basic water system Ithaca
Town Water District— Basic system to meet reasonable future needs of
the Town has now been essentially completed, but there still remain a
few extensions which should be completed to insure continued develop-
ment Miscellaneous Water Supply — Other public water supplies op-
erated satisfactorily No serious problems occurred
SEWAGE and WASTE WATER DISPOSAL — Water Pollution Control
— Certified for operation and maintenance grants were the City of Ith-
aca, Village of Cayuga Heights, Trumansburg and Groton Village of
Dryden's complete system of sewers and water pollution control plant
completed and placed into operation in April Lansing Sewer District
#2 formation completed which permits the connection of the Lansing
Apartments complex Town of Dryden— contracts to be let early in
1969 for construction of sewer district in Varna The district will pump
sewage into the City of Ithaca, Cornell University, and the City of Ithaca
Comprehensive Sewerage Study — For rural southern portion of Tomp-
kins County including the Towns of Enfield, Newfield, Danby, and
Caroline (plus a portion of the Town of Dryden) is completed and re-
port will be presented to the Town Boards through special individual
meetings Septic Tank Program — A permit is required prior to con-
struction of individual septic tank systems and a certificate of comple-
tion is required after construction, but before covering the work to in-
Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors 525
sure that new septic systems will operate free of nuisances with a maxi-
mum of useful life
SOLID WASTE DISPOSAL — A complete survey of the nine existing
refuse disposal sites in the County confirmed that none of them meet
the requirements of the State Sanitary Code in terms of operation of
sanitary land fills The survey revealed the need for serious considera-
tion of inter -municipal cooperation in the operation of a few key refuse
disposal sites A county -wide comprehensive study to begin on the im-
plementation of a County -wide program will be undertaken in 1970
AIR POLLUTION QUALITY Si ANDARDS — Have been established
by the State Air Pollution Control Board for the entire county
BELL STATION NUCLEAR ELECTRIC GENERATING PLANT —
The proposal by the New York State Electric and Gas Corporation to
construct a large nuclear electric generating plant on the east shore of
Cayuga Lake in the vicinity of the present coal generating plant has
led to consider able controversy over the potential impact of the thermal
and radioactive wastes which will be discharged to the environment The
location of a large nuclear generating plant on an inland body of water
(such as Cayuga Lake) raises many questions as to the impact on the
existing rather delicate biological balance Unfortunately, the State and
Federal governments were not prepared and the standards applicable to
'thermal discharges are not yet clearly defined After much debate and
'much discussion, there is now a proposal by the New York State Water
Resources Commission (in concuirance with the Federal Water Pollution
'Control Agency) for a thermal standard which appears to be reason-
able When the standard becomes incorporated into the water pollu-
tion standards of the State of New York, it will be up to the generating
plant to demonstrate that they can effectively and continuously meet
these standards Plans, specifications, and a report must be submitted as
to how they intend to do it The standards will, of course, not be ac-
ceptable to all concerned and the controversy will continue for many
years Research in the area on environmental quality control will con-
tinue for many decades and undoubtedly standards for performance
of treatment facilities will be changed as needed to meet the new cri-
teria established as a result of continued research

SUMMARY OF
Annual Report
DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL SERVICES
Submitted by
Clinton Armitage, Commissioner
(Detailed report on file in office of Clerk of Board of Supervisors)
Total expenditures for 1968 were $4,003,775 with net cost to the Conn-
, ty of $1,227,514, or 30% of the total expended This is an increase of
$171,161 over 1967
In all categories there was an increased case load of 147 cases with the
largest increase of 102 case families in Aid to Dependent Children Be-
cause of new state policies and mandates one Senior case worker was
assigned the job of coordinating all employment and training efforts for
clients, toward employment of women on assistance and job placement
for the handicapped Also, the fair hearing mandate, has been time con-
suming and unproductive
We began the year with 7,180 eligible for Medical Services exclusive of
those persons receiving public assistance April 1 revisions in the Medic-
aid Law reduced this to 4,146 by the end of the year A total of
$2,204,006 99 was disbursed for Medicaid
The Tompkins County Day Care Service, jointly funded by our de-
partment and United Fund, began operating in April and our staff has
placed 136 children in certified day cate homes or other community fa-
cilities Eighteen family clay care homes have been licensed, twenty-two
more are in process
283,194 pounds of food at a retail price of $117,889 00 was dis-
tributed to 400 — 425 families a month under the surplus foods program
A new addition to the County Home providing dining facilities and
space for social and church activities was completed and more than 300
interested citizens attended the Open House One hundred five patients
received care and there is a definite trend toward a new type of patient —
the pre -nursing home patient with physical limitations and dietary prob-
lems which increases both staff and the volume of laundry, supplies, etc

SUMMARY OF ANNUAL REPORT
COUNTY ATTORNEY'S REPORT
Submitted by Robert I Williamson
(Detailed report on file in office of Clerk of Board of Supervisors)
We had a variety of problems during 1968 with business increasing in
direct proportion to the increased functions of the Board of Supervisors
Handling of routine matters entailed preparation of numerous con-
tracts, acquisition of land including condemnation proceedings where
necessary, preparation of resolutions, processing procedures for abandon-
ment of highway and bridge in Village of Freeville, counseling depart-
ment heads when requested on various legal issues, attending all super-
visors meetings including many committee meetings, processing applica-
tions for reimbursement from federal and state government, and handling
requests of students desiring to vote in the County
Paul Tavelli was appointed by me as my assistant and handles all Social
Services matters and processing pending Workmen's Compensation Cases
still remains a duty of the County Attorney's Office
Under the Taylor Law, collective bargaining consumed hundreds of
hours in negotiating and besides the negotiation sessions, this office pre-
pared the detailed contract with the Employees
Many hours were spent with the Charter Commission and in the
preparation of the necessaiy legal documents for approval by the voters
at the last General Election, after which approval our office prepared
the Local Law relative to the Reapportionment of the County
BIRTH OF A COLLEGE
TOMPKINS - CORTLAND COMMUNITY COLLEGE
(Compiled by Elsie D Boyd, Clerk, Board of Supervisors)
In March of 1965, the Board of Supervisors learned for the first that a
number of interested citizens weie exploiing the need for establishing a
community college either sponsored solely by Tompkins County or joint-
ly with our neighboiing Cortland County Study and Action Committees
weie formed, letters both pro and con were iecorded and considered,
local representatives of the Chamber of Commerce appeared before the
Board of Supervisors to urge the college be established solely by Tomp-
kins County, all efforts were primarily goaled toward a better education
Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors 545
I
for the youth of our community keeping in mind at all times the cost to
local taxpayers
On September 16, 1966, a Resolution was adopted by the Cortland
County Board of Supervisors approving the joint establishment and op-
eration of a Community College by the Counties of Tompkins and
Cortland Subsequently, on September 26, by a vote of 9 to 7, a concur-
rent resolution was adopted by the Tompkins County Board of Super-
visors, said concurrent resolutions included a "plan" for the equitable
pi orating of costs and the number of Trustees to be appointed by each
County The establishment of the College was, of course, subject to
approval by the State University of New York, which approval was
given on November 10, 1966
Now came the time for choosing the policy-making Board of Trustees
of the College so the initial business of getting the college underway
could begin The counties agreed that Cortland County would appoint
two members to serve one, five and nine years, with the iemaining mem-
beis to be appointed by the Governor of the State for periods of even -
numbered years Thereafter reappointments were, according to law, for
nine years Interviews were made with citizens from all walks of life and
the first Board of Trustees was selected September 18, 1967 was their first
scheduled meeting The member s were as follows, with Ronald Space
chosen by the membership to serve as Chairman

First, a College must have a name — South - Cential Cortland -
Tompkins Tompkins - Coi tland South - Central seemed an appro-
priate name and for a short time the college was referred to as this,
but finally the State approved the present name as the most logical one
Next, a temporary site Smith -Corona Marchant Corporation an-
nounced it was providing free of charge to the sponsorship counties the
old Groton High School owned by it in the Village of Groton for use
as a Community College This was gratefully accepted
546 Tompkins County, New York
And so, the College carne into being The Village of Groton became a
Collegetown And, an enthusiastic President was employed President
Hushang Bahar, a native of Iran, formerly served as Director of Grad-
uate Studies and Extensive Service at Ithaca College Other adminis-
trators employed by the Trustees, who shared President Bahar's en-
thusiasm, were Dr John X McConkey, Dean of the College, formerly
associated with Sullivan County Community College, Thomas F Mur-
phy, Director of Financial Affairs, formerly associated with Corning
Community College, Walter Poland, Coordinator of Student Affairs,
formerly with Corning Community College, and Thomas V Mecca, Di-
rector of Admissions and Registrar, formerly with Sullivan County
Community College
The doors of the College opened September 1968, (the State had ad-
vised this would be an impossibility) with near capacity enrollment of
164 day students (245 applications having been filed) and 296 regis-
tered for the 18 evening and extension courses held in Groton, Ithaca
and Cortland Business and Liberal Arts courses were offered and the col-
lege was, and still is, committed to its open-door policy on a first-come
first -serve basis with a projected enrollment of 320 students for 1969-70
school year With this projection, to maintain the recommended faculty -
student ratio of 15 to 1, a total of 22 instructional staff members will be
required, in addition to the continuance of the policy whereby the ad-
ministrative staff teaches at least one course whenever possible
With this glowing educational institution comes the important de-
cision for the sponsorship counties of selecting a permanent site for the
college Three pioposed sites were evaluated — one located in the Village
of Groton and two within the township of Dryden In November of 1968
the Board of Trustees voted to recommend for the approval of both
Board of Supeivisors Dryden Site #1 which is located on Route 13 and
comprises properties totalling 500 5 acnes at a cost of $325,000 At this
writing, the final decision has not been made by the Boards of Super-
visois
Great strides have been made and many obstacles have been overcome
in a relatively short span of years, as the detailed records of both Boards
of Supervisors and the Board of Trustees clearly indicate Devoted citi-
zens, too numerous to mention, shared in creating one more progressive
endeavor for Tompkins County — a Community College geared to serve
the adults as well as the youth of the county
Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors 547
HISTORIC EVENTS LEADING TO THE CREATION OF
TOMPKINS COUNTY PUBLIC LIBRARY
(Compiled by Elsie D Boyd, Clerk, Board of Supervisors)
The concept of a countywide library service is not new The records
show that on December 29, 1927 a petition from the Snyder Hill Young
People's Aid Society requesting countywide service was read to the
Board of Supervisors and referred to the Committee on Soldiers' Relief,
etc
In February of 1928, the Board of Supervisors, at the request of the
Cornell Library Association, appointed Supervisors Sidney L Howell
(4th Ward) , Frank A Begent (Groton) and Albert Dassance (New-
field) as a committee of three to confer with the Association and plan
for better library service This resulted in a contract with the Asssoci-
ation which created a County Library Commission, and an appropri-
ation of funds to be expended solely for county library service In
November of 1934, the contract was terminaed and the County estab-
lished a Rural Traveling Library System However, under the Educa-
tion Law, the County did continue to contribute monies to the Cornell
Library Association throughout the years In 1939 and again in 1950
the possibility of consolidation of the Rural Traveling Library and the
Cornell Library was presented to the Board of Supervisors but no action
was taken On October 31, 1960, a resolution was adopted by the Board
of Supervisors dissolving the Rural Traveling Library System The signs
of progres are cited in the first paragiaph of this resolution which reads
"Whereas, this Board has been informed by the Committee of the Rural
Library System that there is no longer a need for said system at the pres-
ent time by reason of the fact that modern means of communication and
travel have shortened distances between city and town, "
In May of 1964, the Board of Supervisors were presented a proposal
to participate in joint ownership of a new library with the Town of
Ithaca and the City of Ithaca This was the beginning of the progressive
steps that were to follow The Supervisors by resolution adopted in June
of 1964 agreed there was a definite need to study all existing library
facilities in the County and the services rendered to all residents of the
County Committees were appointed and many man hours went into this
study of numerous proposals
After lengthy discussion, the Board of Supervisors in their Resolution
No 285 adopted in November of 1964 agreed the need existed, the co -
ownership would create innumerable problems, the fairest and most
equitable means of prorating costs would be sole -ownership by the
(County of Tompkins, and $450,000 was appropriated towards the cost
of construction of an adequate library to be wholly and solely owned by
the County with a contingency paragiaph that this resolution becomes
548 Tompkins County, New York
effective upon receipt of official notification from the Cornell Library
Association of its willingness to contribute all assets and pledges toward
this construction The Association immediately adopted a resolution
agreeing to this and pledging their cooperation
A Special Library Committee was appointed in November of 1964 to
further explore the pioposals Named to that committee were Super-
visois James H Cortright (Danby) , Chairman, James R Graves (1st
Ward) and William B Kerr (Town of Ithaca) and it was through their
guidance and efforts the County Library materialized
Architect J Victor Bagnarch was employed to design the new facility,
adjoining properties on North Cayuga Street were purchased from
Ithaca College and the I 0 0 F at a cost of $140,000, demolition of
existing buildings and site preparation began, long-range financial pro-
jections got underway, including fund drives sponsored by the Cornell
Library Association, interest combined with determination ran high
until finally in mid -1967 bids for construction of the library were
awarded by the Board of Supervisors The County Library was officially
created
On January 1, 1968 management of the library passed from the Cornell
Library Association to the County In the interim period, the Board of
Supervisors chose as members of the first Board of Trustees Mrs John
(Helen) Vandervort, Chairman, William Waters, Vice -Chairman, Court-
ney Crawford, Finance Chairman, Charles Pettis, James Buyoucos, Mrs
Robert Polson and Mrs Dale Corson The Board establishes operating
policies and appoints the director Howard R Bientlinger, former direc-
tor of the Cornell Library, was appointed as director of the new County
Library
The completion of a (estimated) 1 8 million dollar library fulfilled
the dreams of numerous individuals, and especially those of Mrs Helen
Vandervort through whose enthusiastic leadership as President of the
Cornell Library Association, this dream became a reality The anticipated
interest of residents in such a facility was verified by the attendance of
more than 15,000 individuals during Open House the week of February
3, 1969
The Cornell Public Library, predecessor of today's library, was pre-
sented to the citizens of Ithaca and the County by Ezra Cornell and was
chartered in 1864 The old library building was sold in 1960, demolished,
and on its site you now find a large parking area to accommodate the
patrons of the First National Bank and Trust Company of Ithaca
Tompkins County Public Library, in its infancy, hopes that all resi-
dents benefit from its modern facility which offers books, magazines,
maps, pictures, records, films, newspapers, and other reference aids, free
of charge, as a service to both young and old

SUMMARY OF
ANNUAL REPORT PERSONNEL DEPARTMENT
Submitted by Hugh Hurlbut, Personnel Officer
(Detailed report on file in office of Clerk of Board of Supervisors)
A job classification study was done in 1968 to become effective in 1969
for the County by the State Civil Service Department, after which the
Management -Consultant firm of G W Robinson & Co completed a
salary and employee benefits survey and proposal
As of December 31 there were a total of 947 county employees, 109
town, 93 village, 343 school district, and 53 BOCES and Finger Lakes
Library, for a total of 1544 employees falling under the jurisdiction of
the County Personnel Office
' The office engages in activities other than those mandated by law,
such as recruitment, administration of salary plans for all jobs in Tomp-
kins County, attendance records, retirement and health insurance, con -
ti act negotiations, administration of contract, responsible for county's
print, mail and central supply room, and reporting workmen's com-
pensation cases to the insurance caiiier
' Added to the work load of the office, has been the routine problems
caused by the county acquiring additional employees from The Com-
munity College, Finger Lakes Library System and the Public Library
All of these so-called routine additions have been successfully adminis-
tered through the cooperation and interest of the Civil Service and
Salaries Committee of the Boaid of Supervisors

SUMMARY OF ANNUAL REPORT
CIVIL DEFENSE
Submitted by Doris Levy, Director
(Detailed report on file in office of Clerk of Board of Supervisors)
During 1968, increased emphasis was placed on local disaster prepaied-
ness This included recruiting additional immediate Civil Defense staff
to provide more depth at top level With a limited paid staff, increasing
ieliance must be placed on volunteers Tompkins County is indeed for-
tunate in having an extremely dedicated and talented volunteer staff
The ultimate goal is that, in the temporary absence or in capacity of the
local director, any one of 7 or 8 well-trained volunteers could carry on
During 1968 although there was a decrease in federal financial
assistance and priorities were established by the federal government, the
department's successful programs, to name a few, were blanket shelter
license agreements with Cornell and Ithaca College, 2) State approval
of Communications and Warning Service annex changes required to
qualify tor matching funds, 3) Conducted Auxiliary police training
course, 4) participated in special one -day high rescue course, and radio-
logical courses sponsored by State, 5) Scheduled area school programs, 6)
coordinated emergency hospital planning, 7) provided aid during water
emergency in Trumansburg, and 8) developed food distribution service
plan, ievised county transportation plans
Since the county first participated in 1955, reimbursements to the
county and its political subdivisions have totaled $108,496 04, most of
which have come from the federal government

TOMPKINS COUNTY
CHARTER AND CODE
Proposed by
THE TOMPKINS COUNTY CHARTER COMMISSION
June 12, 1968
To the Board of Supervisors of Tompkins County
It is my happy responsibility, authorized by unanimous vote of the
Charter Commission, to hand up to you our recommendation for a
Charter and Code to be placed before the voters of the County at the
next general election
The Charter Commission has met weekly since its organization on
February 13 of this year, and its members have devoted many hours of
their time to its formulation The result will, we think, give the citizens
of Tompkins County a modern and efficient government, able to meet
the increasing complexity of county government
We hope to remain in being as a Commission for a sufficient time to
assist the County Government in interpreting this Charter and Code to
the people of the county to assist them in making their decision concern-
ing its adoption in November
The Charter Commission wishes to express its appreciation to the
Clerk of the Board of Supervisors and to the Consultants whose con-
tinuous cooperation was of material assistance to the Commission in
carrying out its mandate from the Board of Supervisors
Respectfully submitted,
James R Graves, Chairman
