Election of Permanent Chairman The next order of business was the election of a Permanent Chairman and nominations were opened. Mr. Stein nominated Ms. Mink as Permanent Chairman, seconded by Mr. Meskill. Mr. Stein read the following statement into the record: "It gives me great pleasure to nominate Barbara Mink to be the next chair of this Board. This is her eighth year as a Board member, and she brings much experience to the position of chair. Barbara has led a number of important board committees including Human Services, Planning, and Economic Development. In addition, Barbara has successfully dealt with some of our most challenging issues as 3 January 7, 1997 leader of the special committees on Partners for Quality and construction of the Human Services Building. But most significantly Barbara served as our vice -chair for the past three years, assisting me to fulfill my responsibility to you and the community. It was a great honor and privilege that this board gave to both of us, and we jointly tried to fulfill your trust to the best of our ability. Her role as your vice -chair was especially significant in giving Ms. Mink the experience to take on the responsibility of board chair. She did not treat this as just a symbolic position. In fact, Barbara pitched in fully to help me in many ways too numerous to mention. She was my surrogate in attending community functions and running meetings when I was unable to be in two places at once. During the past three years she acquitted herself remarkably well in this role. Barbara deserves, now, to move into the leadership position, and in doing so will bring to this board her youthful energy and bright ideas as well as her significant experience. I am proud to look back on what this board has achieved during the past three years, and I want to take this occasion to thank all of you for your help in bringing about our many successes. As chair, I took an activist role in seeking ways that the county could address important local issues. I believe that we need to continue this approach - to add momentum, and to take the county government into new areas of activity. Barbara will do this. She has the intelligence, energy and positive view of government necessary to address the challenges that lie ahead. Barbara is open to varying opinions and new ideas, is concerned with the needs of both the rural and urban areas....and works well with our staff. In addition, she knows how to organize good Christmas parties. The work of the past three years was a cooperative effort on the part of all of us, and I look forward to a continuation of this close working partnership among all board members which I know will take place under Ms. Mink's leadership. I believe that Barbara is uniquely qualified to lead this board. I am proud, therefore, to put her name in nomination for the chair of this board for 1997." Mr. Meskill also read the following statement into the record: "It is an honor and true privilege to second the nomination of Barbara Mink as chair of the Tompkins County Board of Representatives. From her early days as a news correspondent, covering the actions of the Board, to her tireless efforts as a Board member, and her service and dedication as vice chair, she has made many valuable contributions. 1997 will find us facing many new challenges, while continuing to work on the completion of others. Barbara's wit, intelligence and ability to articulate make her the ideal person to lead this group through this exciting and challenging time. During my three years on this Board, Barbara has demonstrated time and time again her ability to lead, articulate the essence of a discussion and propose viable solutions and compromise when the need arises. Two fine and outstanding examples of her commitment to the people of this County include her leadership and guidance with the partners for quality initiative, and her leadership role in the planning and oversight of the new human services building. In addition to all of her wonderful abilities and qualities she possesses one quality which is most important to me is her ability to discuss ad argue points on any given topic even when we have opposing view points and totally opposite philosophies. When all the discussion is over and the vote is taken we move on to the next item and can still be friends regardless of how much we may have differed on that particular topic. 4 January 7, 1997 Barbara I'm going to miss our corner conversations analysis of the various votes and discussions, but I'm confident the entire Board will benefit when you move, from the back of the room to the head of the class." No other nominations were made. It was MOVED by Mr. Winch, seconded by Mr. Stein, and unanimously adopted by voice vote by members present, to close nominations. Mr. Winch stated he feels Ms. Mink will be a very visible chair and will lead the County well. He said he has had the privilege of serving with her on committees. He does, however, have some concerns with her being chair which has nothing to do with partisan politics; he does not feel she is a 15- 0 chair. He said he will be registering a negative vote but hopes next year he will have an opportunity to support her. A roll call vote resulted as follows to elect Ms. Mink Permanent Chair: Ayes: 13; Noes - 1 (Representative Winch); Excused - 1 (Representative Proto). Ms. Mink was elected Permanent Chair of the Board and took the chair. Ms. Mink, Chair, thanked the Board and read the following statement: "Thank you for this honor. At the close of tonight's business I will ask for a motion to adjourn to next Tuesday to outline some specifics about committee reconfiguration, direction for the coming year, and to schedule meeting times. Before committees are finalized I'II meet with each of you to discuss your interests and ideas. Tonight I'd like to speak briefly about building community. This is the last year of our legislative term; but it's the first year of a new role for county government, the result of changes on the state and federal level that give us more responsibility and fewer resources. Tompkins County is better prepared than most to meet these challenges, in large part because we've stressed the importance of inclusiveness in making decisions. Let me give you some specific examples: • We involved the public in the budget process, first through the Budget Reorganization Advisory Committee, then the public forums we held last year • Our Partners for Quality initiative is letting employees play a more active role in decision making • Deciding to bring the county's human service agencies back downtown took two years of discussions with employees, the city, county government, neighborhood residents and clients • Our efforts to improve public information by broadcasting meetings, talk shows, and publishing the County News have kept residents more informed about what we do. I want to reinforce that inclusiveness, since the more we are called on to redefine our role, the more we need to hear from all constituencies, not just the loudest. In turn we have an even greater responsibility to let residents know how their tax dollars are being spent, and why. To me one of the main issues we face this year is reducing rural -urban tensions. They've always existed, but I think it's time to take another look at how these differences are being expressed. I don't accept the notion that Tompkins County residents have different issues depending on whether they live in or outside of the City of Ithaca. Is poverty an urban issue? Nearly three quarter of the families living below the poverty line in this county live in rural areas. The services that get criticized by some rural residents are what keep their neighbors going. Is health care just an urban problem? Is public safety the province of people in rural areas? What about safe and efficient transportation, a need that links every community in the county. These issues cannot and should not be appropriated by one group over another. 5 January 7, 1997 I look to members of this Board to set an example for the community by working together to improve countywide services. In the meantime there are residents who feel that their voices are not being heard. The only way to remedy that is to work through whatever issues we face together by sitting down at the same table. One of this Board's strengths has always been the ability to put aside personal or ideological differences to solve problems. That's how we can realize the vision we've articulated for Tompkins County. I look forward to working with each of you in a productive and challenging year." Election of a Vice Chairman Nominations were opened for Vice Chairman. Ms. Blanchard nominated Mr. Lane as Vice Chair, seconded by Mr. Evans. Ms. Blanchard said during her three years on the Board she has been impressed with the overall ability of this diverse group to function in a nonpartisan way. She feels Mr. Lane has contributed to it considerably. In addition to his regular committee duties he has taken on some difficult issues including the Charter Review Committee. The Board has benefited from his perspective and she personally values his friendship and support. Mr. Evans said he has had the privilege of the working with Mr. Lane for the last fifteen years when he was the Mayor for the Village of Dryden. He continues to be impressed with his efforts and abilities. He especially said it has been a privilege to work with Mr. Lane on the Board for the last three years and looks forward to working with him this year and hopefully into the future. It was MOVED by Mrs. Schuler, seconded by Ms. Kiefer, and unanimously adopted by voice vote by members present, to close nominations. A roll call vote resulted as follows for Vice Chairman: Ayes - 14, Noes - 0, Excused - 1 (Representative Proto). Adopted. Mr. Lane was elected Vice Chairman. Mr. Lane thanked the Board for their support. He said it is his fourth year on the Board and is very pleased to work with everyone. He stated it is the most educational experience since graduating from Law School. Privilege of the Floor by the Public Alan Cohen, City of Ithaca Mayor, congratulated Representatives Mink and Lane for their election and said he looks forward to interacting more with the Board in the future. He said it was a pleasure to work with Representative Stein and thanked him on behalf of the entire community and county. He said a lot has been done to bring the community together with style, grace and civility. Mr. Cohen stated he looks forward to working with Chair Mink and feels it will be interesting and exciting. He said their ideas are similar but don't always agree. However, Chair Mink is always willing to listen and talk things out. John Johnson, Common Council, stated things do not get done by a single person, but one person is needed who spearheads it. He said over the last 12 years he has had the privilege to watch and work with Representative Stein as a member of the Board and admires his style. He looks forward to Chair Mink continuing these efforts. 6 January 7, 1997 Resolution(s) Added to the Agenda It was MOVED by Mr. Todd, seconded by Mr. Stein, and unanimously adopted by voice vote by members present, to add to the agenda the resolution entitled Creation of One Weigh Scale Operator Position and Reduction of Hours for One Senior Account Clerk Typist Position - Solid Waste.

WHEREAS, Time Warner Cable ("Time Warner") is a television cable company franchised by most of the municipalities in Tompkins County, and WHEREAS, pursuant to agreement with the City of Ithaca and other municipalities, Time Warner, is required to provide access facilities for the production and broadcast of local programming, the cost of which is ultimately paid for by all cable subscribers, and WHEREAS, some public access programming of an adult nature has recently been shown during early evening hours, and WHEREAS, a public outcry has arisen from cable subscribers throughout Tompkins County who find such programming offensive, particularly when shown during early evening hours when children may be exposed to it, and WHEREAS, the Tompkins County Board of Representatives believes such adult programming contravenes community standards and may be obscene, and WHEREAS, cable subscribers receiving only basic service have no way of locking out programming from their televisions except by asking Time Warner to exclude reception to all public access programming, and WHEREAS, Time Warner has imposed a moratorium on adult programming on public access and has announced that it intends to work with the City of Ithaca Cable Television Commission to devise guidelines for identifying and scheduling adult programming and to define a late night time period and channel to carry such programs, now therefore be it RESOLVED, That the Tompkins County Board of Representatives commends and fully supports the above actions of Time Warner, RESOLVED, further, That the Board of Representatives requests that Time Warner work not only with the City of Ithaca Cable Television Commission to establish such guidelines, but to also work with the Tompkins County Intermunicipal Cable Television Commission so that the guidelines established will be responsive to cable subscribers throughout Tompkins County, RESOLVED, further, That the Board of Representatives calls upon the Tompkins County Intermunicipal Cable Television Commission, the City of Ithaca Cable Television Commission, and Time Warner to work to establish a new structure for governance of access television which will better serve the needs of cable subscribers in all of Tompkins County. 16 January 14, 1997 SEQR ACTION: TYPE II -20 Chair's Report Chair Mink read the following statement: "One of the main responsibilities of a chairman is to work out committee configurations and assignments, making the best use of people's interests and talents to get the work done. Tonight I'd like to share some of my reasoning for the new lineup. I concentrated on three areas: aligning what we do with our vision and mission, areas that need special emphasis, and making the best use of our time. 1. Over the last two years we have worked on developing a Vision and Mission Statement and a set of goals and success indicators for Tompkins County government. These are more than pretty words. They are an affirmation of the kind of community we envision, what our role is in achieving that vision, and some strategies for how to get there. We are preparing to face some radical changes on the state and federal levels that will have profound effects on every person in this county. It's impossible to predict the effects of the welfare overhaul, but we must be prepared to deal with these significant changes with sensitivity and understanding of the needs of all our constituents. Our program committees will work with departments on aligning the core . services we provide with our mission and vision, and will also concentrate on some specific focus areas. Whether it's a coordinated economic development strategy, an effective response to the new welfare changes, stewardship of our natural and built environments, or effective intermunicipal collaboration, we need to explain as clearly as possible the reasoning behind our decisions, and how these decisions fit into our long range goals. 2. In terms of focus for this year, I think we can all agree that we need to take the work of the Rural Affairs Committee even further. I have appointed a new standing committee, Rural -Urban Coordination, to be chaired by Mike Lane, which has bipartisan rural and city representation. I see this committee as being the clearinghouse for issues that cross municipal boundaries, in which the county has a direct stake or could act in a facilitator role. I found through my work on economic development over the last three years that the county board is often in a unique position to take the lead on these issues, moving them forward, in cooperation with concerned citizens as well as other governmental and non-governmental groups. I am asking the Rural -Urban Coordination committee to: • explore the desirability of combining government functions like police, planning, and youth services • see where services now provided by the county could be better delivered by municipalities • take the lead in resolving ongoing issues like extending sewer and water infrastructure to areas outside the City of Ithaca as a way to promote economic development, or the increasingly complex web of cable TV issues • maintain active relations with other municipal leaders by asking them to join the committee when appropriate, and for the group to meet in the relevant communities when possible • be responsible for active communication with our state and federal representatives on issues that affect Tompkins County • maintain close working relations with Cornell and Ithaca College. Many of these projects are long range and won't be finished in a year. But it's important to build on the great strides we've already made under the excellent stewardship of my predecessor, Stuart Stein, by analyzing the pros and cons of these issues with the participation of those who will be most affected. I 17 January 14, 1997 am looking to this committee to help start a new year of open communication, working with residents from all over Tompkins County who want to have a role in helping us make decisions. A second issue is how much we pay for health benefits. We've already started to work on reducing those costs, but the issue of health care has taken on a new urgency with the current stalemate between Cayuga Medical Center and Blue Cross Blue Shield. We have a responsibility not only to our employees, but the thousands of county residents who are affected by this crisis, and the Cayuga Medical Center which serves this area so well. I have appointed a special committee on Health Benefits Reform, to be led by Beverly Livesay, which I would like to see convene next week to start fact-finding on the Hospital Blue Cross situation. This board needs to have a clear sense of what the dispute means for our employees and residents and we should seek constructive and effective ways to move forward on this vital issue. 3. My third point is making good use of our time. I've reduced the former eight standing and nine special committees to a total of seven standing, six special, which still includes some new committees. Given the complexity of our workload we need to achieve a certain level of efficiency, still being careful to maintain room for expression of differing points of view. Budget and Personnel Tim Joseph will continue to chair this committee, having demonstrated great skill in balancing the taxpayer's desire for the lowest tax rates consistent with the quality services Tompkins County residents deserve and expect.: The committee retains its fiscal policy and detailed budgeting role, but will also assume oversight of the county's personnel functions. Governmental Operations Charlie Evans has agreed to chair this committee which oversees the departments that provide service both in-house and to the public. Charlie brings a strong analytic ability and expertise in technology that will help make this committee function well. Health and Human Services Beverly Livesay will chair this exciting combination. It unites agencies and departments which already work closely in terms of state funding, state cutbacks, and client base. Bev's long history in this area guarantees that under her leadership the community will be kept current on what changes on the state level mean for people here. Planning, Development and Education Barbara Blanchard will head this seven person committee, which covers comprehensive planning, economic development, arts and culture environmental quality and public information. This is a wide area of responsibility, but I have every confidence that by reuniting planning department functions under Barbara's strong leadership, we can anticipate solid accomplishments. Public Safety Peter Meskill has done an excellent job of working with public safety issues in general and the Sheriff's department in particular, and I know he will continue to do so. The start up of E911 service in the county is a particular goal that we should do everything in our power to achieve. Public Works This committee reunites all the divisions of our public works department, which deals with everything from transportation on the ground and air to buildings and solid waste. I know that Tom Todd will be a strong and knowledgeable chairman of this seven person committee. The seventh standing committee is Rural -Urban Coordination. • I will continue as Chair of the Leadership Council and the Human Services Building Construction Committee • Charlie Evans will continue to head the Electronic Future Committee • Stuart Stein will lead the Electric Power committee 18 January 14, 1997 • The Health Benefits Reform committee will be chaired by Bev Livesay I am looking forward to an exciting and challenging year, and am confident that we will not allow political differences to interfere with the objective we share of improving the quality of life for all Tompkins County residents. As representatives we are only as effective as our ability to listen to and communicate with our constituents. We each have a responsibility to provide accurate and timely information and to make every effort to help the public understand the often complex reasoning behind the decisions we make. Working together, I know we can achieve the goals we have set for ourselves."

He said he also noticed a sign at the register that Sears implements their own pricing accuracy policy very similar to the proposed law he has presented to committee. Mr. Lane, District No. 15 Representative, also spoke about the Sales Tax Holiday and said a message needs to be sent to Albany that this is good for the economy and for business and we need people buying in Tompkins County. He also stated the Town of Dryden's Bicentennial continues and the next big event is the staging of a new musical production called "Jenny's Will". It will be held January 24 and 25 at the TC3 forum. It will also be held January 31 and February 1 at Barnes Hall on Cornell University's campus. Mrs. Schuler, District No. 4 Representative, also spoke about the Sales Tax Holiday and presented clippings from the Ithaca Journal and Pennysaver with ads from Seneca County, Liverpool, Arnot Mail, Elmira and local area merchants.

Mr. Proto, District No. 7 Representative, commented that several stores other than clothing and footwear are absorbing the sales tax. Ms. Davis, District No. 2 Representative, said this past weekend there were several festivities around Martin Luther King, Jr., Day. She said the breakfast at Beverly J.

WHEREAS, the County has authorized 100 percent funding for a certain number of Youth Development Programs operated by the City of Ithaca, and WHEREAS, in the past, the City of Ithaca has chosen to put in more money for programs to provide a wider array and prevent reductions in services, and 25 January 21, 1997 WHEREAS, the City indicated in October 1996 that it could not continue to provide the same level of support and said it intended to eliminate seven positions if the County did not increase its contributions, and WHEREAS, for 1997 the County and the City each agreed to pay for half the cost of existing programs through June 30 to prevent disruption and to allow time for planning for the future, and WHEREAS, the motion to provide additional funding called for a Transition Task Force to assess the current Youth Development services, how they are used, their effectiveness and availability, and to explore a variety of financing options, now therefore be it RESOLVED, on recommendation of the Health and Human Services Committee, That the Transition Task Force be created to report to the Tompkins County Board of Representatives through the Tompkins County Youth Board, RESOLVED, further, That the Transition Task Force be staffed by the Tompkins County Youth Bureau be charged with: 1. Develop temporary services and financial plan for July 1 -December 31, 1997 by March 31, 1997. 2. Develop an interim report by March 31, 1997 which: a) identifies youth services considered high priorities by municipalities and area schools, b) assesses the current Youth Development services in terms of who uses them and which most effectively meet objectives, c) find ideas for modifying current Youth Development services and finding other sponsors, 3. Submitting a report of short term and long term recommendations to the County Youth Board by April28, 1997. RESOLVED, further, That the Task Force be guided by the following parameters: 1. Decisions should be based on the equity principle that City youth are also County youth, and that no municipality should have to pay for its own fair share of county -wide services. 2. The recommendations should seek to provide the best quality services to the most appropriate children at the lowest cost. Funding partnerships should be explored and reported. 3. Any recommendations relating to County financing of selected services shall be reviewed by the full County Youth Board as part of an overall set of services to be recommended to the County, to be acted upon by the Board of Representatives. 4. County -wide services provided by County funding should specify how they will target populations, with the understanding that schools or municipalities who wish to provide more services can do so at their own expense. 5. In the future there should be no unreimbursed local share in any Youth Development program the County purchases from the City. 6. The Ithaca Youth Bureau should be seen as having a dual function: As a municipality the City of Ithaca is responsible for meeting the needs of its own youth. But the City is also a contractor with valuable expertise in meeting the needs of County youth. Unlike other contractors who are expected to share the cost of providing services, the City or any municipality which provides youth services is exempt from its obligation under the taxation equity principle outlined in point number one. 7. Long term recommendations should clarify the purpose, audience, and role of any City funding proposed for Youth Development programs which may be selected as appropriate for County support. This will assure fairness and prevent confusion over financial responsibility of City -initiated programs. RESOLVED, further, That the Board of Representatives committee responsible for the Youth Bureau will act in early May on short term recommendations made by the Task Force and reviewed by the Tompkins County Youth Board affecting services after June 30, RESOLVED, further, That the Tompkins County Youth Board shall review the program and funding recommendations for 1998 and beyond as part of its overall resource allocation process and shall make a unified set of funding recommendations as part of the 1998 budget process. 26 January 21, 1997 TRANSITION TASK FORCE MEMBERSHIP 3 County Youth Board Members 2 Ithaca Youth Bureau Board of Advisors Members 1 GIAC Board Member 1 Ithaca City School District Representative I United Way Representative 1 BOCES Representative 2 Youth Commission Representatives 1 Member of the Human Services Coalition Board RESOLVED, further, That the Transition Task Force present preliminary findings to the County Youth Board and Health and Human Services Committee by March 31, 1997, and its final recommendations for July - December 1997 and its long range funding recommendations for 1998 and beyond for Health and Human Services Committee review and approval no later than May 31, 1997, RESOLVED, further, That the Task Force findings also be made available to the City and all other appropriate entities.

Withdrawal of Resolution(s) from the Agenda Chair Mink gave Mr. Joseph permission to withdraw the following resolution(s) from the agenda: Res. No. Res. No. Amendment of Administrative Policy 05-02, Fiscal Policy Amending Administrative Policy 05-02, Fiscal Policy, to Provide that the Proposed Tompkins County Budget shall be Enacted by the Board of Representatives as a Committee of the Whole Report from the Chair Chair Mink summarized the meeting held January 29 with Senator Seward. She again thanked Senator Seward for his successful efforts, with Senator Kuhl and Assemblyman Luster, in securing several long -needed home rule bills: Statler Sales Tax, Solid Waste Fee on Tax Bills, and Authorization to Create TCAT. Department heads and Board members addressed the Senator on a variety of issues, most of them related to Governor Pataki's 1997-1998 State Budget proposals. Department of Social Services Director of Eligibility Rebecca Bush raised several points related to Welfare Reform as proposed by the Governor: 1. post -secondary educational opportunities (such as PACE) should not be limited unnecessarily; 35 February 4, 1997 2. localities should have the ability to target child care incentives, the state should not try to micro - manage this area; 3. funding needed for emergency services, including homeless shelter, should not be underestimated; 4. the Governor's proposed phase -down of public assistance grants over time creates real questions about the ability of persons to survive, despite earned income offsets which are welcomed; 5. it is critical that the State track the actual impacts of these drastic changes. County Administrator, Scott Heyman, also commented on the Governor's Welfare proposals: 1. the Governor proposes capping the amount the state spends on public assistance; Federal aid is similarly capped; counties have no means to cap what they spend, in particular whenever the next economic downtum occurs; this must be changed, it could generate catastrophic property tax increases; 2. the Governor may not be proposing funding sufficient to do what must be done about child care and job training in order for welfare reform to work. County Clerk, Aurora Valenti, spoke in opposition to removing all responsibility for license and registration renewals by mail from local motor vehicle offices to Albany. This would cost her department around $80,000, or about three staff positions, and she said she cannot believe that Albany can produce equal service or produce it at as low a cost. Irene Stein, Office for the Aging Director, deplored the. fragmentation of the State's efforts for the elderly that are scattered among the State Departments of Health, Social Services, Labor, and Aging -- and are not focused on clients. Ms. Stein welcomed the news that the Governor does not propose to cut funding for the elderly in his budget. However the pattern continues of no increase in State funding; meanwhile the elderly population continues to increase faster than any other group. This is stretching to the limit the ability of her department and her staff to provide meals to isolated elderly persons and to do all the other things they do that enable the elderly to live at home. Public Works Commissioner, William Mobbs, indicated to the Senator that the quarter of a million dollar reduction proposed by the Governor in CHIPS highway funding will create major problems. Bill Benjamin, Criminal Justice Coordinator, pointed out that parole hearings are currently being delayed on a routine basis, contributing to jail costs and to the need to send prisoners to other counties. He also pointed out that the State is not reimbursing the actual cost of legal defense of accused parole violators as it is required to do. Mr. Heyman encouraged the Senator to support the Governor's call to shift the administrative costs of the preschool education program to school districts, particularly in a year when state aid to schools is proposed to begin to increase. He asked the Senator to advocate for a permanent authorization for counties to enact the fourth cent of local sales tax. Report from the County Administrator Mr. Heyman gave the Board an update on the impacts of the Governor's proposed budget. He has again learned there are significant cuts being proposed in the Probation Department from 32 percent to 26 percent which would cost the County about $63,000. In Mental Health there is an option for flexible funding. He reported that he and Kathy West, Deputy County Administrator, will be making themselves available for committee meetings in the event their presence is needed. Report from the County Attorney 36 February 4, 1997 Mr. Theisen updated the Board on the tobacco litigation. He said the Board joined Erie County as a passive participant. He announced that is not a class action suit now and said the County will have to decide whether to go forward themselves. He will report and recommend a direction to the Health and Human Services Committee in a month for the County to take. Report from the Finance Director Mr. Squires said he did not have a report.

However, the voting status of ex -officio members varies from advisory committee to advisory committee depending on how they are established.- Several reports were given by Steve Whicher, Assessment Director.

SEQR ACTION: TYPE 1I-20 RESOLUTION NO. 23 - ADOPTION OF AMENDMENT TO ADMINISTRATIVE POLICY 01-34, ALLOCATION OF SPACE IN COUNTY BUILDINGS MOVED by Ms. Kiefer, seconded by Mrs. Livesay. Mr. Heyman spoke about the addition by the committee of including the Health and Safety Coordinator in the loop in making a recommendation for allocating space. Mr. Heyman and the Coordinator cannot think of any circumstance where he would need to be involved. 41 February 4, 1997 It was MOVED by Mr. Meskill, seconded by Mr. Winch, to delete the Health and Safety Coordinator from the loop. Ms. Kiefer said the committee's reason for including the Coordinator is that person is responsible for ascertaining whether the space is appropriate housing in terms of air flow. Mr. Meskill was concerned that if there is a major allocation in space change it appears only the relevant program committee(s) make the decision. Discussion followed and it was the consensus of the Board to refer the resolution back to committee for further review of defining a major space change and/or requiring Board approval to allocate space. RESOLVED, on recommendation of the Governmental Operations Committee, That the following Administrative Policy is hereby revised: 01-34 Allocation of Space in County Buildings SEQR ACTION: TYPE II - 20 RESOLUTION NO. 24 - SETTING SALARY OF THE CHAIRMAN OF THE TOMPKINS COUNTY BOARD OF REPRESENTATIVES SERVING DURING THE TERM OF THE BOARD WHICH COMMENCES JANUARY 1, 1998 MOVED by Ms. Kiefer, seconded by Mrs. Livesay. Mr. Meskill stated for the record that he was not going to bring forth the one quarter and three quarter proposal again because he feels it does not have the support to pass. He feels the Chair should receive more money and the vice chair some additional money because there are additional requirements placed on those two people whoever they are regardless of what affiliation they have when they perform the job and feels it is worthy of some additional compensation. He said he does understand the other side of the argument as committee chairs have that extra responsibility, but he feels that person gains some benefit by being a chair. The Board chair and vice chair are the people out in the front all the time taking the brunt of what is going on good or bad. Mr. Lane said he was disappointed that the committee did not recommend the double salary. He stated that based on the discussions he heard in the Charter Committee particularly speaking to the last chair and others, he thinks that with the amount of work involved it makes sense to revert to what the Board did for twenty years which was at the salary twice that of other Board members. A short roll call vote resulted as follows:. Ayes - 10, Noes - 1 (Representative Meskill), Excused - 4 (Representatives Davis, Evans, Stein and Totman). RESOLUTION ADOPTED.

Renort from the Electric Power Committee Ms. Blanchard, Vice Chair, said the committee has not met and the next meeting is February 20 at 4:00 p.m. The committee will be hearing from several New York State Electric and Gas representatives about their plan and how they see the deregulated future. Representatives from Tioga and Chemung Counties may also be present. She reported about a meeting with the Mayor of the City of Cortland. They are trying to get a pilot project established for retail wheeling which will allow residents to buy their electricity from several vendors. Mr. Proto asked if the charge for the committee could be expanded to include municipal or other sources of power. He would like the gas rate piece of utility bills examined. He spoke about gas and/or natural gas billing that is not residential. People who own residential apartment buildings are considered commercial enterprises. One of the concerns he has experienced is utility bills have increased 110 percent since 1991. He said there is a negotiated rate on commercial bills and that a letter was received a year ago from NYSEG giving him the opportunity to go into the future's contract business. This provided an opportunity to bid and lock in a rate on the commodities market. The rate that would have been paid is three cents per therm. The rate some are paying is nineteen cents per therm. If the County is looking at expanding commercial enterprises he feels the County should also be looking at negotiated rates on all utilities not just electric. Ms. Blanchard said the question of utility rates and how it affects economic development will be a big piece of the economic development strategy plan. 44 February 4, 1997 Report from the Health Benefits Reform Mrs. Livesay, Chair, said she did not have a report.

James Hanson, Planning Commissioner, summarized the proposal as follows. The HUD Canal Corridor Initiative is a program of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development to provide economic enhancements in communities along the New York State Barge Canal and its tributaries. Approximately 75 communities across Upstate New York are eligible of funding, which includes $60 million in Community Development Block Grant funds for up to 20 years, and at least $60 million in HUD Section 108 loans for communities, which also can be for up to 20 years. Section 108 loans are provided by HUD at market interest loans, and can be written down to a lower interest rate with grants from the Small Cities program. Section 108 loans must be repaid to HUD by the County, who will collect payments from the Pinneys. It is anticipated that the vast majority of the projects funded through the Canal Corridor Initiative will involve Section 108 loans. Administrative and application costs are eligible for grant funding under the Canal Corridor Initiative. Section 108 loans will be secured, and if there is a default, current HUD rules require the County to submit applications for Small Cities funding for the principal and interest due each year a project is in default. A default could therefore reduce the amount of funding available to the County for Small Cities projects. Tompkins County is currently developing a project with Richard and Florence Pinney, the owners of Portland Point in the Town of Lansing. This lakefront property currently has an abandoned cement plant, and the Pinney's wish to demolish the main building, and construct a 134 -ship marina, boat storage facility, boating store, restaurant and party/outing center on the property. The proposal would create up to 40 part and full-time positions upon completion; the majority of which would be seasonal positions associated with the restaurant and party/outing center. While the proposal is currently being refined, it would include written -down Section 108 loans. Tompkins County engaged in a public solicitation process for proposals which includes news releases published in the Ithaca Journal and broadcast over local radio. Two mailings were sent to all lakefront property owners in Tompkins County outside the City of Ithaca, as well as all eligible municipalities. Through this solicitation, two proposals were received. The Portland Point Project is the only project that has moved forward to the public hearing stage. Tompkins County is also required to amend the Abbreviated Consolidated Plan to include the Portland Point Project and the Section 108 loan program, which was not mentioned as a funding source in the original Abbreviated Consolidated Plan, which was approved as part of the 1996 HUD Small Cities application for Tompkins County. The deadline for funding under the HUD Canal Corridor Initiative is Tuesday, March 4, and the County anticipated completing an application on behalf of this project at that time. A second public hearing has been scheduled for Tuesday, February 25 at 12 noon in the Board of Representatives Chambers, and will deal more specifically with the Portland Point Proposal. No one else wished to speak and the public hearing was closed at 5:35 p.m. 46 February 18, 1997 Regular Meeting Called to Order Chair Mink called the meeting to order at 5:35 p.m. Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag and Roll Call of Members Members and guests participated in the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag.

He said Mr. Kahn joined the Department in his mid -fifties and served the Department and community very well. He also noted Mr. Kahn's interest in libraries. Mr. Stein, District No. 5 Representative, also spoke of the loss of Peter Kahn. Mr. Stein said he knew Mr. Kahn for almost thirty years and considers himself very fortunate to have been a colleague and friend of Mr. Kahn's. He said Mr. Kahn was a wonderful teacher and a creative person who always had a kind word and positive outlook of the community. Mr. Stein said Mr. Kahn came to this country from a depressed regime in Europe and devoted his life to whatever he could to improve the world around him. Mr. Stein spoke of Mr. Kahn attaining tenure twice at Cornell, and said he does not know of anyone else who has ever done this. Ms. Mink, Chair, said it is obvious that Peter Kahn had a lot of relationships in a lot of quarters of the community. She spoke of his support of the cultural and intellectual life of downtown Ithaca. She said he had many interests and will be sorely missed.

The lead agency has determined that the proposed action described below will not have a significant effect on the environment. Title of Action: Resolution No. 30 of 1997 - Award of Contract for Solid Waste Hauling and Disposal Service SEQRA Status: Unlisted Description of Action: The resolution awards a contract for the hauling and disposal of solid waste. Location: Waste will be picked up in Tompkins County and transported to Ontario County Reasons supporting this determination: As demonstrated by the Environmental Assessment Form, the contract for waste hauling and disposal will not have an adverse affect on the environment. It will not affect operations of the County's Recycling and Solid Waste Center. It is anticipated that the same solid waste hauler will pick up solid waste in the same manner that it currently does.

I am a part-time administrator for developing the program of incorporation of Cornell's and public pre and post consumer food waste into the current manure and greenhouse waste compost program. This is a field that I have been interested in longer than 1 have served on the Board of Representatives. In my previous employment I assisted in setting up the current compost program in 1992/93 and have worked in association with them until retirement. The problem that arises is that Tompkins County may contract with Cornell to run a pilot food composting using a DEC grant. Others from Cornell will negotiate the terms and conditions of the contract. County Attorney Theisen was asked by me to review the potential for conflict of interest. The following is two parts of his letter to me. Strictly speaking, merely abstaining from voting on any aspect of the County composting program and disclosing your position, should be sufficient. This abstention and disclosure should occur in a Committee meeting and Board meeting. Though I do not see a direct conflict requiring that you resign from the Committee, you may well prefer to do so, to avoid any appearance of impropriety. This would be a laudable decision, although as I said, strictly speaking it is not required. I respect Mr. Theisen's opinion. However "conflict of interest" in the eyes of the voting public may be more of a problem than what is legal. Because of this, I wish to resign from the Public Works 56 March 4, 1997 Committee to further distance myself from the Solid Waste staff, both for my own good and to permit the best atmosphere for the Solid Waste staff to negotiate with those at Cornell and for the best interest of all residents of Tompkins County. It is my intent to excuse myself from the room during all discussions and votes concerning this project. Since composting is the right thing to do environmentally, and is cost effective, I see this as no problem. Thank you." Ms. Kiefer, District No. 10 Representative, spoke concerning underage smoking, and said she was pleased to get a notice from the County Health Department, stating upon written complaint to them on the sale of cigarettes to a minor at a local supermarket, they have taken action and imposed a fine on that supermarket and have been reassured by the store this would not happen again. Ms. Kiefer said she is reassured that the County Health Department takes this matter seriously. Mr. Lane, District No. 14 Representative, reported on the NYSAC Conference he attended last week along with Representatives Livesay and Stein. He said he attended various workshops, particularly those focused on intermunicipal cooperation, agreements, and working together. He said he appreciates having the opportunity to represent the Board. Mr. Stein, District No. 3 Representative, reported he attended the NYSAC Conference last week, on sessions on public safety. He said there was a lot of discussion about suing the State for State -ready prisoners, with continual reference to the good job Tompkins County has done showing other counties the way. Mr. Stein said Tompkins and Erie Counties are the two counties who have been successful in doing this. Addition of Resolution(s) to the Aeenda On motion of the appropriate committee chair and duly seconded and unanimously adopted by voice vote, the following resolution(s) were added to the agenda: Requesting State to Increase Rate of Reimbursement for Parole Violation - Assigned Counsel Budget Adjustments - Various Departments Withdrawal of Resolution(s) from the Agenda Chair Mink gave the appropriate committee chair permission to withdraw the following resolution(s) from the agenda: Authorizing a Public Hearing on Proposed Local Law No. a of 1997 - Code of Ethics Appropriation from Contingent Fund and Fiscal Target Adjustment - Towns and Villages Making Payments for County -wide Services Amending Administrative Policy 05-02, Fiscal Policy, to Provide that the Proposed Tompkins County Budget Shall be Enacted by the Board of Representatives as a Committee of the Whole Chair's Report and Appointment(s) Chair Mink had no report.

He said a set of follow-up actions and a timeline will be brought back for the Board's approval. Report from the County Attorney Mr. Theisen reported all the Biggs A ADA (Americans with Disabilities) cases have been terminated. He said the Worker's Compensation cases involving the same people are still pending, and the legal question being considered is whether the claims are a result of an accident or an occupational disease. Mr. Evans asked if occupational diseases are eligible for Worker's Compensation. Mr. Theisen said he believes Worker's Compensation does not cover unlisted occupational diseases, and "multiple - chemical sensitivity" is not listed. Mr. Joseph asked for the arguments that were filed on this issue. Mr. Theisen said he will give Mr. Joseph a copy of the legal brief when he receives it. Report from the Finance Director Mr. Squires reported his office is preparing a final package to finance the completion of the Human Services Building. He said several notes have been consolidated, and he will be going to market in April for a total of approximately $20 million in financing ($6 million of which is for the Human Services Building).

The total amount of $150,000 will be covered because the County was declared a Federal disaster area. The subject of a County clean-up day will be taken up at the next meeting on March 6. RESOLUTION NO. 32 - AWARD OF BID - AIRPORT TERMINAL CONFERENCE ROOM CAPITAL PROJECT MOVED by Mr. Todd, seconded by Mr. Totman, and unanimously adopted by voice vote. WHEREAS, the Finance Department has duly advertised for bids for the construction of a conference room at the Tompkins County Airport, and WHEREAS, sixteen (16) bids were received and publicly opened on February 11, 1997, now therefore be it RESOLVED, on recommendation of the Public Works Committee, That the bid be awarded to the lowest responsible bidder in the following configuration: General Construction Paul Yaman Construction, Inc. $22,603.00 Contract #1 Cortland, New York HVAC Tri -Cities Temperature Control, Inc. $ 3,397.00 Contract #2 Binghamton, New York Electrical Matco Electric Co., Inc. $ 2,861.00 Contract #3 Vestal, New York RESOLVED, further, That the bid of Louis N. Picciano and Son, Inc., for Contract No. 4, in the amount of $6,000 is hereby rejected, RESOLVED, further, That the Engineering Division be authorized to enter into contracts on behalf of the County with the above named vendors with a ten percent (10%) contingency on each contract, funds to be provided from Capital Project Account HS2496, the Tompkins Cortland Community College Improvements Account; funds available being residual balances from the original campus construction program. SEQR ACTION: TYPE II -2 RESOLUTION NO. 33 - AUTHORIZING AGREEMENT WITH TOMPKINS CORTLAND COMMUNITY COLLEGE TO LEASE CONFERENCE ROOM - TOMPKINS COUNTY AIRPORT MOVED by Mr. Todd, seconded by Mr. Meskill. Mr. Lane said he does not understand whether this money originated from an account that had been contributed to by all three sponsors (Tompkins County, Cortland County and New York State), or whether it is just Tompkins County money. It was noted during the discussion that this is Tompkins County money. He asked whether it makes sense to proceed to use this money, whereas the rental period over ten years would be contributed partially from the State budget and the Cortland County budget. 59 March 4, 1997 Mr. Todd said this resolution came from TC3 as part of their capital account. Mr. Squires said the Airport was originally going to pay for the improvements directly but the Airport does not have the flexibility to provide the up -front costs for this. The intent was that it would be capitalized over a ten- year period through lease payments. He said it was his recommendation that instead of straining the Airport, this money be used to pay the up -front costs. Mr. Joseph said most TC3 projects are financed jointly by Tompkins County, Cortland County and the State, and asked why this project would be financed by only Tompkins County. He also asked why there is an account with only Tompkins County money in it. Mr. Squires said Tompkins County has this account because it has taken the lead in financing the improvements because of its higher bond rating. Ms. Blanchard said this is different from a typical TC3 project because the concept of this conference room originated at the Airport. She said TC3 was interested in being the sponsor for this room because it was a mutually beneficial project. She feels it would be unwise to ask Cortland County, which does not have any interest in the Tompkins County Airport, or New York State to participate in this project. She said this is a direct benefit to Tompkins County. Mr. Lane said he still does not have a problem asking Cortland County to pay their fair share of this because it is a TC3 project. He said the way TC3 was justifying this was to be making payments out of their promotional, budgeted account. He said their budgeted revenues come from the State, and Tompkins and Cortland counties. He said those revenues are jointly shared, and feels all three entities should be contributing to this project. Mr. Todd said it is his understanding this involves capital money that was generated a long time ago that was not expended, so TC3 will be substituting that capital money for the operating money they would normally lease this room with. Mr. Squires said this money is left over from the original campus financing prior to 1980, and was not joint money. He said at that time the County kept its money separate. Mr. Stein said he feels the key to this lies in the original bonding purpose and whether this money can be used for this conference room. He asked Mr. Squires if the original bonding allows Tompkins County to use this money to build a conference room at the Airport. Mr. Squires said indirectly it does, because it is residual from interest earnings on the debt that financed the original project. He said there is no debt on the original project. He said the money was set aside with the intent that it would be transferred over to debt service. Following a lengthy discussion, it was MOVED by Mr. Joseph, seconded by Mr. Winch, to refer this resolution back to Committee. A voice vote on the motion resulted as follows: Ayes - 4 (Representatives Joseph, Kiefer, Lane, and Winch); Noes - 11. MOTION LOST. A voice vote on the resolution resulted as follows: Ayes - 13, Noes - 2 (Representatives Joseph and Lane). RESOLUTION ADOPTED. WHEREAS, the County wishes to build a conference room in the east wing of the Airport Terminal Building to provide a convenient meeting room and to increase airport business, and WHEREAS, Tompkins Cortland Community College (TC3) wishes to lease said conference room for its own use and as a marketing tool for the College, and WHEREAS, the conference room may be used by others when not in use by Tompkins Cortland Community College, and WHEREAS, use of the conference room is expected to increase terminal restaurant business, and WHEREAS, in lieu of annual lease payments, Tompkins Cortland Community College has agreed to pay construction costs of approximately $34,861 and architectural fees of $8,000, from their 60 March 4, 1997 Capital Projects Account HS2496 and an additional amount not to exceed $10,000 for equipment and furnishings, now therefore be it RESOLVED, on recommendation of the Public Works Committee, That the County Administrator be and hereby is authorized to execute a lease agreement with Tompkins Cortland - Community College for a period of ten years, beginning upon beneficial occupancy, on or about May 1, 1997. SEQR ACTION: TYPE I1-2 Report and Presentation of Resolution(s) from the Planning, Development and Education Committee Ms. Blanchard, Chair, reported at the last meeting on February 20 the Committee heard presentations from representatives of the Convention and Visitors' Bureau, Community Arts Partnership, and the Advisory Board on Tourism Development on the work they do on the County's behalf and through contractual arrangements with the County.

Present: 13 Representatives; Excused - 2 (Representatives Livesay and Schuler); Ms. Kiefer was not present when roll was called; she arrived at 5:34 p.m. Privilege of the Floor by the Public Calvin Criss, City of Ithaca, spoke in opposition of the resolution on the agenda entitled Amending Administrative Policy 05-02, Fiscal Policy with Respect to Fund Balance Targets. He asked how much taxes would: have to be increased in 1998 to attain the 10 percent fund balance. He feels extra money in the pot would only serve• as encouragement to politicians and departments to spend unnecessarily. He spoke about the public forum held Iast;• fall on the budget. Ile stated in his group he wanted to return excess to taxpayers and everyone else wanted to spend: it. He feels there is no reason or need to increase the fund balance to ten percent. It is his opinion that it would be' fiscally irresponsible to have a fund balance that large and believes it would be spent. Jill Brantley, City of Ithaca, also spoke concerning the resolution on the agenda entitled Amending Administrative Policy 05-02, Fiscal Policy with Respect to Fund Balance Targets. She feels it is a sound idea but feels there should be more public discussion. It is unclear to her how the unthoughtout experiments in welfare reform will affect Tompkins County's surplus' and total tax burden. She referred to a recent summary in the "Ithaca Hours" newspaper, which she distributed copies of. Ms. Brantley complimented the County's vision and mission statement. Ralph Barnard, retired lawyer, said he handled bond financing for Cornell years ago, and has some idea of what goes into credit worthiness. He said he was surprised when he opened the newspaper and saw the letter to the editor suggesting there are many other issues that go into credit worthiness, such as tax rate and outstanding debt. He thinks it is important for the County to use the right reasons when making decisions. He questioned whether there was another reason for this proposal. Donald Lifton, Town of Ithaca, stated in late 1996 the Board made a historic commitment to ensure that in the transition to welfare reform that our citizenry of low economic status would not lose the compassionate response of County government. It is unknown what the costs will be for this community. As a property taxpayer, he is concerned that people in constituencies should be able to plan their fiscal lives as to what the County's expenditures for taxes will be. He applauded the Board for trying to ensure Tompkins County residents that taxes and the rate of increases will have some predictability and stability. However, he feels the proposed mechanism of increasing the fund balance to deal with the concerns of Welfare Reform and stability in taxes is not the best. He urged the Board to continue discussions and see if there are other options. He suggested the Board set aside reserves by dollar amounts. Lawrence Conlon, Town of Lansing, said he attended the public forum at the school and felt it was a good process. He said the question is how much of a rainy day fund does the County wish to have. He encouraged the Board to discuss this further and talk to constituents. He does not believe most taxpayers want to increase the amount of the rainy day fund especially in view of the kinds of surplus' the County has been receiving lately. Privilege of the Floor by Board Members 73 March 18, 1997 Mr. Joseph, Representative, District No. 12, made the following statement: "I want to start by letting everyone know that I do intend to withdraw the resolution on fund balance and take it back to committee, but I want to raise a concern that I have about the level and the tone of public discussions that we have been seeing lately, particularly, in the media. I am a strong believer in democracy and open government and I spent the last three years on this Board working with the Public Information Committee and with the Budget Committee to try to develop ways in which people could have their input into the Budget early and in a way that is meaningful and that provides a real chance that what they say will have an impact. I have spent a good deal of time arguing with friends, colleagues on this Board, and other politicians trying to convince them that it really is possible to have rational, public discussion on serious issues. Citizens are capable of hearing and understanding the complexities and making good judgments and politicians can afford to speak the truth and explain complex issues and expect that most people will listen; if they don't necessarily agree they will still pay attention and give credit for the efforts. I have argued that we don't need to resort to slogans and distortions in order to win our points in the public and in politics. Lately I have had a hard time convincing anybody. I'm very happy with the level of discussion we just had from the public here tonight. I came in tonight pretty angry about what I have been seeing in the media and I am really reassured that some of my faith is restored that people can come out, take part in a discussion, say something sensible and hear something sensible. That's in sharp contrast to what's been going on in the paper. What should be a public discussion of serious issues has been dominated and disrupted by a few people screaming and shouting and calling names. When a Board that has produced the lowest tax increase in decades -- a rate that is below inflation, below that of the City and school district, a Board that has given the County the lowest property taxes of all surrounding counties, and one of the lowest among counties of comparable size, and a Board that has produced a total tax burden that is in the bottom quarter of all counties in the State, which is what we just saw in the Journal recently; only they put the headline on the negative part. When that Board is attacked and vilified as flagrant spenders and wasters of the public money that we've constantly got our hands in the public's pocket, stealing from the taxpayers, driving old people out of their homes, we've left the realm of rational discussion and descended to demagogy and hate. When a suggestion that our current surplus should be retained in order to cushion the potentially large tax increases that are looming on the horizon is denounced as a 25 percent tax increase to support leftest programs; now we have really lost touch with reality. The screaming and the shouting has completely drowned out reasonable discussion, people are not even talking about the same things anymore because no one's listening, probably because no one can hear anymore amid the noise, threats, and lies. So we find ourselves here today with a resolution that has no ideological content and no party division. We've got radical Democrats like Don Lifton and conservative Republicans like Tom Todd both saying we ought not to raise the fund balance. We have a long history of conservative Republicans on this Board trying to keep the fund balance up and now we've got some democrats saying that maybe that's a good idea. So we've got no ideological content and no partisan content and yet we see passions blazing away as if this was the armies of righteousness against the devil himself. I brought an idea to the Budget Committee and to this Board so that we can discuss it on its merits. It's not clear to me why we should pick sides and fight each other. It's certainly not obvious to me what's the right thing to do and I doubt it's obvious to anyone else; at least anyone that's taken the time to really look at the choices. I am planning to withdraw the resolution and take it back to committee because I've heard some real and thoughtful objections, as well as some plausible alternatives. It was hard to hear them amongst all the shouting and finger pointing, but a few got through. Before I withdraw it though, I'd like to lay out some of the issues and get some feedback from this Board since that is why it came here in the first place. The questions that we should be asking about the fund balance are what purposes do we want it to serve and what size does it have to be to serve those purposes. One thing we are all clear we want, is to protect our bond rating. Five percent is plenty adequate to do that and no one has ever suggested otherwise. In fact, in some of our discussions in the Budget Committee we started to think maybe five percent was more than is necessary. Our Financial Director and our County Administrator both agree that what bond markets look at more than the absolute level of your reserves is for signs that you're in control of them, that they are where they are because 74 March 18, 1997 that's where you decided they should be. If we were to say that we will never let our fund balance be less than three percent but we normally kept it a little higher than that, say five percent or seven percent, then on the day that we run into trouble and we need to use some of it up and we spend down from five to three and stop that's more reassurance to the bond raters than having a steady five percent. The fact that we can move it to where we want it and keep it there is probably more important than the absolute number; but our fund balance serves some other purposes too and we've talked about that in the past. We've talked about the fund balance being a cushion against unexpected increases as a way of helping to level out tax increases and if you've got a five percent balance that you feel like you have to keep and can't touch, then it is not serving as a cushion. So we need to ask what's the right amount if any, that we want to have as a cushion that we plan to use up in hard times and replenish in better times; Understand that what we decide to do on that question has no real long-term impact on how much taxes we levy. It only has an impact on when we levy them. What determines how much we levy is how much we spend and what we get from other sources. Some of that is within our control, but a great deal of it isn't and it's the part that we are not in control of that we can and we should' be worried about. Right now we have a surplus and a substantial one. We also have a very frightening financial threat looming on the horizon, mainly in the form of Welfare Reform. Should we save some of the money we've got now to guard, against those times? It won't make any difference in the total amount of taxes we have to collect to meet that' contingency whenever it does come up, but it will allow us the flexibility to phase in the increase if there is one. So if we save, how much should we save. In 1992, this Board spent a five percent surplus down to virtually zero in one year. That gives us one piece of information about how much of a cushion you can use and how fast it can be used' up. How big of a risk are we facing from Welfare Reform, we don't really know and one thing that has been brought home to me in the discussion in this last week is that we can know and we need to know at least a lot more accurately than we do now, and that is one reason I am withdrawing the resolution. I've begun to work with some of our staff to try to figure out how big of a threat we face and try to put some numbers on what could happen under Welfare Reform, so that we've at least got some ranges to talk about and have some idea of what it is we need to build reserves for. It's also been suggested that while it is a good idea to save for the problems ahead, the fund balance isn't the best place to keep it; that there's other methods of reserving money that might be more appropriate. And there's also some logic to that and that's another reason I want to pull the resolution back and give it some more discussion. I hope that withdrawing the resolution won't be seen as a victory or defeat for anyone because victory and defeat don't have any place in this discussion. We have some decisions to make about how to manage the resources we've got in order to protect ourselves and our taxpayers against future problems. If we make the right decision, we'll all win and we don't need to have any losers; but we will never figure out the right choices by screaming and shouting at each other and I really hope we will be able to see a lot less of the kind of attack and vicious blaming that we've seen in the newspapers and on the radio and lot more of the kind of calm, reasoned discussion that we had here tonight from the public. Thank you." Mr. Stein, Representative District No. 3, said he has been a Board member since 1983 and it was dominated by conservatives for many years. He spoke about the discussions of previous County budgets. He referred to an item in the budget called revenue sharing from the State and Federal government that had a balance of $6-7 million and was used at budget time for evening out the impacts of certain expenses. At that time, that was the County's rainy -day fund. The Board worked together and all tried to solve the problems. The rainy -day fund eventually disappeared and revenue sharing was discontinued and a number of items had to be absorbed, which resulted in - taxes being increased. Discussions then followed about what the balance of the fund balance should be. He spoke about the public forum held last fall and said there were discussions about what should be done if there is a surplus and one of the things that came up was the desirability of having a fund balance that would stabilize taxes. He feels that is sound budgeting and encouraged the Board to work together. Mr. Meskill, Representative, District No. 15, reminded everyone that today is election day for villages and encouraged people to exercise their right to vote. He said he is pleased with the discussions this evening and that the resolution is being taken back to committee for further discussion. 75 March 18, 1997 Mr. Evans, Representative, District No. 13, said he had a call from Yvonne Bartlett a former Department of Social Services employee, asking the Board to consider that she be allowed to address the Board at the next meeting via speaker phone. Due to her road being tarred by the town in which she resides, she is unable to leave her house. She would like to address the Board prior to the Worker's Compensation hearing being held next month. Mr. Lane, Representative, District No. 14, said that a number of representatives from the Dryden community took a float to Syracuse for the Saint Patrick's Day parade to advertise the Dryden Bicentennial. He commended the community for their efforts and support. He said he is proud at the length the community is going for their Bicentennial, which will bring people in from outside Tompkins County. He said it is important to state that small towns and villages are capable of putting on events that will bring people in to Tompkins County. In addition, Mr. Lane reported the Intermunicipal Cable Commission met this week and heard from a consultant about franchise negotiating process. He said two subcommittees have been established; one is the negotiating committee that has been working with Time Warner. The other subcommittee is on access which will be taking a look at how to set up a structure that would include not only the City of Ithaca but other municipalities to have a voice in the governance of the various kinds of access television in Tompkins County. Mr. Proto, Representative, District No. 7, commended Mr. Stein for talking about the process itself and not the specifics. He said the statement by Mr. Stein was correct in regard to the history. He hopes the Budget Committee will have all the data that was mentioned by Mr. Stein when the resolution is being discussed again. He agrees with Mr. Joseph that it is important to have all the information on the issue to allow for an intelligent discussion. In addition he hopes information will be available that includes the items that cover the spending processes the Board has gone through the last two to three years, specifically the rollover issue. Airport Master Plan Presentation Mr. Nicholas, Airport Manager, said this has been a lengthy process. He said Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) requires a formal presentation of the Airport's future plans. He hopes to have Board approval of the Master Plan at the next meeting. Approving the Master Plan does not commit the County to anything. The Board will have an opportunity to approve each individual project as they come up. He introduced Michael Hoteling, Senior Planner with C&S Engineers, Inc., who gave the presentation and distributed copies of the process and findings of the Airport Master Plan. Additions of Resolution(s) from the Agenda It was MOVED by Mr. Joseph, duly seconded, and unanimously adopted by voice vote by members present, to add to the agenda the resolution entitled Endorsing State Legislation Extending Existing Sales and Use Tax Authority of the County of Tompkins. Withdrawal of Resolution(s) from the Aeenda The resolution entitled Amending Administrative Policy 05-02, Fiscal Policy, with Respect to Fund Balance Targets was withdrawn later in the meeting. Chair's Report Ms. Mink announced two national celebrations: One is Hunger Awareness Day March 20 and the other is the 25th Anniversary for the Older Americans Act Senior Nutrition Program March 21. Hunger networks such as Foodnet, Food Pantries and the Kitchen Cupboards are holding public celebrations and are inviting Board members. On Thursday, the Kitchen Cupboard, has invited Representatives to the Salvation Army. On Friday, Board members are asked to visit nutrition programs in their district or to deliver meals to individuals. 76 March 18, 1997 Ms. Mink also reminded Board members about the Chamber of Commerce's County. Affairs breakfast March 25. She said to let the Clerk know if you are interested in attending. She asked committee chairs to meet with her briefly following the meeting to discuss brief presentations she would like made. Chair Mink made the following report later in the meeting prior to the report by the Library Improvement Committee: Ms. Mink reported on a meeting she attended in Groton, along with Representative Lane, with members of town and village government and interested persons from the public. She said it was a very good meeting and said she welcomes the opportunity to meet with more people throughout the County. Ms. Mink also reported she spoke to the Cornell Board of Trustees on March 14 and has distributed a copy of her remarks to all Board members. (A copy of those remarks are attached to these minutes) Report from the County Administrator Mr. Heyman said he welcomed the Directors of Weights and Measures 90th annual meeting being held in Tompkins County. Judy Tynyk, the County's Director of Weights and Measures, is the President. of that Association. He updated the Board on the County in-service education program. He said it has been six months since the Training Coordinator's position has been created. He highlighted the activities and said he has been getting positive feedback. Report from the County Attorney Mr. Theisen reported on the Virgil Creek Project where the property owner took the County to court. He said the County received a unanimous decision from the Appellate Court in Albany. He also reported the $100,000 payment was received from the State Department of Corrections and went to the Sheriff's Department. In addition, he said the Landstrom Landfill was transferred to the County and part of it to the Town of Spencer on March 1. Mr. Lane thanked Mr. Theisen and James Skaley of the Planning Department for the work that was done for the Virgil Creek Project. Report from the Finance Director Mr. Squires announced he would be moderating a panel in Albany on bond ratings and said he would be sure to ask them about their position. He said he received a notice today about a setback in an assessment case. The County has been ordered to refund $5,000 for the Agway property in Lansing. He said he continues to speak to Time Warner about County franchise fees. The auction for foreclosed properties has been scheduled for April 11. He reported because of a change in tax law, he is seeing a doubling of people who are opting to pay their taxes in installments. Mr. Stein asked if there has been any change in the number of foreclosed properties within the last 40 days. He also asked Mr. Squires to look at an article in the Ithaca Times concerning the sales tax receipts. It reports Tompkins County's increase is relatively low compared to surrounding counties. Mr. Squires said there has been no change in the number of foreclosed properties and also said he would look at the article and correct it if necessary. Ms. Kiefer asked if Time Warner is looking for credit against its taxes because of collection of franchise fees. Mr. Squires stated that State law says that a municipality can assess a franchise fee but if they do so they are entitled to take payment against the franchise fee and apply it on the County franchise charge which is based on valuation of equipment. He said Tompkins County was notified that Time Warner is taking a credit against every town they have a franchise agreement with, equal to their reported income. Mr. Squires said this amounts to approximately $6,000 County -wide, and $50,000 in the City of Ithaca. He said the issue is not clear whether they 77 March 18, 1997 can unilaterally take this action so Tompkins County cannot accept payment for an amount other than what is due. Mr. Lane said this issue came up at the last Intermunicipal Cable Commission meeting, and it was suggested that maybe municipalities should look at rental fees instead of franchise fees for use of the public rights-of-way. Mr. Lane requested a copy of the room tax report. It was understood that copies would be given to all Board members. Appointment(s) Approved Under the Consent Agenda It was MOVED by Mr. Evans, seconded by Mr. Proto, and unanimously adopted by voice vote by members present, to approve the following appointments under the Consent Agenda: Environmental Management Council Donna Jean Darling - representing Town of Newfield; term expires December 31, 1997 Fire, Disaster and EMS Advisory Board Dennis Griffin - representing Town of Lansing (Delegate); term expires December 31, 2000 Jeffrey Walters - representing Town of Lansing (Alternate); term expires December 31, 2000 Hillview Road Landfill Citizens Advisory Committee Daniel Karig - At -large representative; term expires December 31, 1997 Tompkins County Youth Board Brad Herman - representing Education Agencies; term expires December 31, 1998 Report from the Planning, Development and Education Committee Ms. Blanchard, Chair, said the committee has not met. The next meeting is March 25 at 2 p.m. The committee will hear how the Planning Department plans on administering the flood mitigation program and will also hear a presentation by Tompkins County Area Development (TCAD) on economic development activities TCAD is involved in on the County's behalf. Report and Presentation of Resolution(s) from the Governmental Operations Committee Mr. Evans, Chairman, said the committee met March 11 and discussed the proposed Veteran's exemption. It is important to note the changes are estimated to cost the County in revenues approximately $44,000. The committee also spent time discussing the revaluation schedule. The most recent coefficient of dispersion is now about 12 percent. If the County goes beyond 17 percent, the State cuts off State Aid for the Assessment Department. It is expected to have a single equalization rate for the whole County in 1998, which will allow school taxes to remain constant. The rate is expected to change from .097 to 1.03, which represents a six percent drop in property values. The committee discussed a resolution concerning Internet planning. The next committee meeting is March 25 at 2 p.m. and at 3 p.m. the committee will discuss the Ethics Law. All concerns should be submitted in writing. RESOLUTION NO. 50 - AUTHORIZING A PUBLIC HEARING ON PROPOSED LOCAL LAW NO. 1 OF 1997, VETERANS' EXEMPTION LIMITS MOVED by Mr. Evans, seconded by Mr. Winch. Ms. Kiefer said at least one member of the Committee abstained from voting, as they are a recipient of this exemption. She said the exemption only goes to veterans who own property and she feels there are a lot of veterans who do not own property. She said she will not support this resolution this evening because she feels Board members should have a copy of the proposed law before a public hearing is established. A voice vote on the resolution resulted as follows: Ayes - 12, Noes - 1 (Representative Kiefer); Excused - 2 (Representatives Livesay and Schuler). RESOLUTION ADOPTED. 78 March 18, 1997 RESOLVED, on recommendation of the Governmental Operations Committee, That a public hearing be held before the Board of Representatives at Board Chambers of the Tompkins County Courthouse, 320 North Tioga Street, Ithaca, New York, on Tuesday, April 1, 1997, at 5:30 o'clock in the evening thereof concerning proposed Local Law No. 1 of 1997, Veterans' Exemptions Limits. At such time and place all persons interested in the subject matter will be heard concerning the same. RESOLVED, further, That the Clerk of the Board is hereby authorized and directed to place proper notice of such public hearing in the official newspaper of the County. SEQR ACTION: TYPE II - 20 Report and Presentation of Resolution(s) from the Budget and Personnel Committee Mr. Joseph, Chairman, reported the Committee is recruiting members to fill two vacancies on the Community Affirmative Action Committee. He reported at the last meeting of the Budget and Personnel Committee, there was discussion pertaining to the fund balance, and what the appropriate level should be. He said at the next meeting on March 20 at 11 a.m. the Committee will be looking at a mock-up of a budget request, for the purpose of modifying budget forms if necessary. The next meeting of the Capital Program Committee will be April 22 at 4 p.m. Mr. Joseph presented the budget schedule that was adopted by the Committee. There was a lengthy discussion regarding moving budget adoption prior to Election Day. Mr. Joseph said the Committee discussed this at length; however, did not recommend doing this. Mr. Joseph requested an executive session to discuss a personnel matter. RESOLUTION NO. 51 - REQUESTING THAT THE STATE OF NEW YORK GRANT PERMANENT AUTHORIZATION TO CONTINUE CURRENT LOCAL SALES TAX RATE IN TOMPKINS COUNTY MOVED by Mr. Joseph, seconded by Mr. Todd. A voice vote resulted as follows: Ayes - 12, Noes - 1 (Representative Proto); Excused - 2 (Representatives Livesay and Schuler). RESOLUTION ADOPTED. WHEREAS, the State of New York has never authorized Tompkins County to impose an additional one-half or one cent local sales tax on a permanent basis but always includes a date on which this authorization ends, and WHEREAS, this requires the Board of Representatives, usually every two years, to pass three resolutions, one requesting legislation extending its authority, one endorsing specific bills in the state legislature that extends its authority, and one actually extending the added local sales tax, and WHEREAS, this results in wasted staff time in the State legislative offices, in the State Department of Taxation and Finance, and in the office of the Clerk of the Board and County Administration, and WHEREAS, the State of New York should grant the previous requests of this Board and of the New York State Association of Counties for permanent authority to make the decision at the County level whether to impose an additional local sales tax, now therefore be it RESOLVED, on recommendation of the Budget and Personnel Committee, That this Board urges its senators and assemblyman to support, the State Legislature to enact, and the Governor to sign legislation permanently authorizing the County of Tompkins to impose an additional one-half or one cent of local sales tax. SEQR ACTION: TYPE II -20 RESOLUTION NO. 52 - ENDORSING STATE LEGISLATION EXTENDING EXISTING SALES AND USE TAX AUTHORITY OF THE COUNTY OF TOMPKINS MOVED by Mr. Joseph, seconded by Mr. Evans. A voice vote resulted as follows: Ayes - 12, Noes - 1 (Representative Proto); Excused - 2 (Representatives Livesay and Schuler). RESOLUTION ADOPTED. WHEREAS, the County of Tompkins has had the authority to enact an additional one cent of sales and use taxation since December 1, 1992, and has enacted such taxation, and 79 March 18, 1997 WHEREAS, this authority has been exercised since that date and expires November 30, 1997, and WHEREAS, this Board by Resolution 296 of 1996 requested the members of the New York State Senate and Assembly who represent Tompkins County to draft, sponsor, and support legislation- extending this authority beyond November 30, 1997, and they have done so and have introduced S 1747/A2577 "AN ACT to amend the tax law, in relation to extending the expiration of the provisions authorizing the County of Tompkins to impose an additional one-half or one percent of sales and compensating use taxes" that extends this authority to November 30, 1999, now therefore be it RESOLVED, on recommendation of the Budget and Personnel Committee, That this Board endorses and requests State approval of legislation known as S 1747/A 2577, and urges its elected representatives in the Senate and the Assembly to support this legislation, SEQR ACTION: TYPE II -20 RESOLUTION NO. 53 - APPROPRIATION FROM CONTINGENT FUND AND FISCAL TARGET ADJUSTMENT - TOWNS AND VILLAGES MAKING PAYMENTS FOR COUNTY -WIDE SERVICES MOVED by Mr. Joseph, seconded by Ms. Davis, and unanimously adopted by voice vote by members present. WHEREAS, the County has under -reimbursed the Town of Dryden, Town of Newfield and the Village of Groton for 1994-96 payments for County -wide services, and WHEREAS, payments to the towns and the Village of Groton are budgeted in three separate budgeting units in accordance with the types of agencies each locale is paying, and WHEREAS, the expenditures are to the towns and village and not to the individual agencies, now therefore be it RESOLVED, on recommendation of the Public Works, Health and Human Services, and Budget and Personnel Committees, That the Fiscal Targets for Budgeting Units 4800 (Transportation Services), 1400 (Community Health Services), and 2500 (Basic Subsistence) be reduced by the appropriations to the towns and Village of Groton, RESOLVED, further, That the Fiscal Target for Budgeting Unit 7200 (Payments to Municipalities for Countywide Services) be increased by the sum of these adjustments plus $1,281 which represents the balance due to the Towns and Village for Fiscal Years 1994, 1995, and 1996. FROM: A1990.54400 Contingent Fund $ 1,281 TO: A6950.54400 Program Expense $ 1,281 RESOLUTION NO. - AMENDING ADMINISTRATIVE POLICY 05-02, FISCAL POLICY, WITH RESPECT TO FUND BALANCE TARGETS MOVED by Mr. Joseph, seconded by Ms. Kiefer. Mr. Joseph explained the proposed changes in the policy. He said the purpose of the proposed change to the minimum general fund balance is to establish a level that is designed to protect the County's bond rating. He said there have been discussions whether there should be an additional pot of money to serve as a cushion. He said there is also a guideline in this resolution which addresses how to get to the target. He said another question is when there is a surplus, how much of it is responsible to spend down in one year, recognizing that if the surplus is used up covering current expenses a big tax increase is being built in for the next year. Ms. Kiefer said she felt strongly a year or two ago that the Board should prepare for the changes coming from the state and federal levels. She said she asked the Finance Director what are recommended levels of reserves. She was told five percent was reasonable and ten percent was acceptable without raising a red flag. 80 March 18, 1997 Ms. Blanchard said she thinks the budget process improves each year, and hopes we are not moving towards having so many rules there will not be any flexibility. She also hopes the Budget and Personnel Committee will be taking a look at measuring against other indicators such as what is the fund balance in relation to total expenditures or operating expenses. She said she has information on this if anyone is interested. Mr. Meskill said he feels it is important to have flexibility within the fiscal policy to do things depending on what happens, good or bad. Mr. Meskill expressed concern for the increasing cost of health insurance. He said if money is going to be set aside, a look needs to be taken at setting aside for this purpose. He noted all residents in the County are affected by taxes because every resident pays taxes through their rent. Mr. Stein said he sees the major issue is if the County has a surplus, is it the will of this Board to set some of that aside to stabilize taxes in the future. He feels the other questions about how much and how much is split are subsidiary. He said it is important to recognize how this question came up last year. This came up because there was an unexpected surplus and the Board had to answer how the money should be used. He said there are two potentially conflicting desirable goals: to keep taxes down, and to keep the tax rate stable in the future to avoid unexpected dramatic increases. He said he would like to know whether there is support for tax stabilization when the Budget and Personnel Committee discusses this further. Mr. Lane said he thinks one thing that is driving this is the fact that Tompkins County has the most unusual fund balance situation in the State because of the County's rollover policy. He said the County basically tries to budget a fund balance rather than to have a fund balance that exists because more revenues were received or because less money was spent. He said he feels strengthening the fund balance is a -good idea, but is also supportive of Mr. Meskill's suggestion that maybe there should be more flexibility. He supports further discussion of this by the Committee. Ms. Davis said she supports the rollover policy, and basically views it as rewarding departments for efficiently utilizing the funds made available to them. She said she also supports a larger fund balance because she is very nervous about what the future holds. Following a lengthy discussion, Chair Mink granted Mr. Joseph permission to withdraw this resolution from the agenda for the purpose of further discussion by the Budget and Personnel Committee. RESOLUTION NO. 54 - AMENDMENT OF ADMINISTRATIVE POLICY 05-02, FISCAL POLICY WITH RESPECT TO APPROVAL OF BUDGET ADJUSTMENTS, REPLACEMENT PAY, AND FEES MOVED by Mr. Joseph, seconded by Mr. Meskill. Ms. Kiefer said she has trouble with the attitude towards fees in this resolution and believes fees should not be considered "overtarget". She said she thought there was a working group looking at fees; and therefore, feels this resolution is premature. A voice vote resulted as follows: Ayes- 12, Noes - 1 (Representative Kiefer); Excused - 2 (Representatives Livesay and Schuler). RESOLUTION ADOPTED. WHEREAS, this Board has eliminated from its Rules the provision that some items will appear on its agendas as "Board Action Not Required" or "Board Action Optional", which had applied to budget adjustments, and WHEREAS, the Budget and Personnel Committee has recommended that the Fiscal Policy be amended to clarify the entitlement of departments to replacement pay for ill or injured employees, and WHEREAS, the Budget and Personnel Committee has also recommended that revenue increases included in budget proposals resulting from a change in the rate or structure of a fee must be included as an over -target request, now therefore be it RESOLVED, on recommendation of the Budget and Personnel Committee, That Administrative Policy 05- 02, Fiscal Policy, is hereby amended. SEQR ACTION: TYPE II -20 81 March 18, 1997 RESOLUTION NO. 55 - DELETION OF ADMINISTRATIVE POLICY 02-03, PRE- EMPLOYMENT PHYSICALS MOVED by Mr. Joseph, seconded by Ms. Davis.

The Committee heard a report from Ken Thompson, Assistant Solid Waste Manager, about the monitoring of ground water wells at the Hillview Road Landfill. Mr. Todd reported the Committee discussed the request made by Representative Lane for having a clean-up day. Because the cost of this day would be approximately $100,000, it was the sense of the Committee that the County could not bear the cost and directed Ken Thompson to write a letter to municipalities to see if they would be able to share in the cost. Mr. Thompson will report back to the Committee on this. Mr. Todd said the Committee also received a status report on the Household Hazardous Waste Facility from Barbara Hotchkiss, Recycling Coordinator.

To my knowledge this is the first time in recent history that a leader of the county legislature has addressed the Cornell trustees, an idea suggested last year by my predecessor, Cornell professor emeritus Stuart Stein. Because of scheduling problems Stuart's meeting did not take place, and since I was elected Chair of the Board this January I happily inherited the invitation. Though you've probably visited campus many times, many of you may not know much about this county. That's not unusual, because the campus community often exists in relative isolation, even for people who live and work here. My main purpose in coming here today is to begin to bring us closer together, by concentrating on three main areas: who we are and what we do, a look at issues of mutual concern for Cornell and Tompkins County, and finally some suggestions for the future. Tompkins County County government in New York State plays a vital role in the lives of those who live, work and study here. Tompkins County has almost 100,000 residents, including about 25,000 students. We are not considered urban, or large, but we're larger and more cosmopolitan than many of our neighbors, primarily because of the presence of Cornell. Our annual budget is over $90 million, and we employ 760 people, making us the fifth largest employer in the county. We consider ourselves and are viewed by others as leaders in New York State; we tend to address issues early and are not afraid to try creative innovations. This is critical to our success, since New York State holds the dubious distinction of being the only state in the country to put such a heavy financial burden on its counties. It's the only state that requires counties to pay for an appreciable part of Medicaid costs; that's $6 million, a third of our total property taxes. Other states pick up the entire cost. New York is also the only state that forces counties to pay for the legal defense of indigents, an $868 thousand dollar expense for us last year. I give you these details to reinforce the fact that our scope of responsibility is broad, and the current devolution of responsibility from higher levels of governments means we'll be paying for even more of the costs of services with regressive property taxes, rather than federal and state income taxes. We build and maintain roads and bridges, run a jail and sheriff's department, provide an airport and terminal, offer mass transit, and take away everyone's trash. We are also responsible for providing and administering social services, services for the young and old, environmental and public health, and probation. We support a successful community college and nm a court system, and oversee a large tourism program. There are too many programs to list, but I think it's clear how these services help the university to function and are in turn impacted by Cornell Areas of concern Two basic areas of concern dominate the relations between Cornell and Tompkins County: taxes and competition. Cornell is one of the top five taxpaying entities in Tompkins County. It is also one of the largest holders of tax exempt properties. Out of a total of $3.5 billion in taxable holdings, over half are tax exempt; and of those, over half 86 March 18, 1997 belong to Cornell. The effect, however legal and defensible, is clear. It puts a tremendous strain on residential and commercial taxpayers, and thus the county's ability to pay for services. This is not to undervalue the positive effect Cornell's presence has on this community; not the least of which is the effect on employment: one out of four working people in this county works for Cornell. Nor am I suggesting that we reexamine the right of educational institutions to have tax-exempt privileges. But it does mean that we are concerned about removing even more taxable university property from the rolls, as was the case a few years ago with a number of fraternities and sororities, and that we remain vigilant about abuses of the university's tax-exempt status. On the positive side, we have been making tremendous strides working together to expand the tax base, which to me is the only meaningful long term solution. One reason for the progress was the realization on both sides that as Cornell's growth slows or even shrinks, the county needs to bolster the tax base with other enterprises. As head of the County's Economic Development Committee for three years, I concentrated on more effective coordination and delivery of economic development activities. At the same time Cornell, under the leadership of Fred Rogers, went - through a parallel initiative. Cornell has just announced it's new Economic Development office, which consolidates the functions of four of the university's tech units into one new office. We at the county are now coordinating the many efforts we already have underway, as well as some new ones,. under the aegis of Tompkins County Area Development, a public private partnership. that includes government and the university as members. The County, in partnership with Cornell, has also authorized funding for a virtual incubator, and we have begun work on a comprehensive countywide economic development strategy. This restructuring on the hill and downtown is more than just bureaucratic tidiness; it's a way to insure effective contact among government, the university and the private sector that should accelerate local business development and enhance the prospects of long-term success. Another exciting area of cooperation between the county and Cornell has been the Electronic Futures project, which explores the possibility of making high speed computer, cable, telephone and utility access available to virtually every household and business in Tompkins County. This would provide the university with the kind of high speed electronic infrastructure it needs both on and off campus, would offer the community lower cost alternatives to the current cabling systems, and would make this area an attractive high-tech lure for prospective businesses. Other examples of successful partnering are that we consolidated the management of bus service under one umbrella, we have reached cooperative arrangements in solid waste disposal, and have seen the successful completion of a new airport terminal, built largely at Cornell's request. These are success stories in progress, and proof that it's possible to get beyond the talking stage and work together to achieve measurable results. The issue of competition between the tax exempt university enterprises and local retail and service providers is not a new problem, but it requires a fresh look every few years. The new marketing techniques at the Campus Store, the Red Runner limousine service, and the upgraded fitness centers, to mention a few, seem like obvious improvements. But the line between the Cornell community and the rest of the county is a shaky one, and these changes have resulted in unanticipated tensions between the university's enterprise units and local merchants. Keeping lines of communication open is vital to resolving these disputes as they emerge. As for issues yet to emerge, we will need Comell's help in formulating an effective reaction to welfare reform. I see two possible areas: child care for women who must now find work, and the creation of jobs for people who will lose benefits. Cornell has done an exemplary job of providing child care options for its employees; I hope the university can help the local Day Care Council work on expanding those options. In terms of job creation, I know Comell is heading in the opposite direction, especially with initiatives like Project 2000 which are aimed at improving efficiency and productivity, but which inevitably must result in the loss of even more jobs. That has a direct affect on the services we provide, so I hope we can maintain communication on the long range effects of what may seem like inevitable changes. You are already aware of interest on campus and off in establishing a livable wage standard for the community. As the employer of more than 10,000 people Cornell obviously plays a key role in making any headway on this important and humane issue; we in county government are looking forward to being part of these discussions. Challenges for the future I'd like to end with a little personal history. I came to Cornell in 1976 to get a Ph.D. in Comparative Literature. I didn't, but went to work for the Cornell -owned radio station WHCU instead, where I served as News Director for eight years. During that time I taught journalism part-time at Cornell and Ithaca College, and in 1985 went back to Cornell to get a Masters in History. I left the radio station when it was sold in 1986, and started teaching at Cornell's Johnson 87 March 18, 1997 Graduate School of Management, where 1 am now a senior lecturer. I've also served on the County Board for almost eight years. For me, as for many of my colleagues, a life at Cornell and service in the public sector inform each other in very productive ways. My experience in government enriches my teaching, and the business students respond positively to real-life examples. Yet there is an attitude on campus that sees academic and community life as completely separate. There is even the view, reinforced by administrative policy, that public service is a distraction, rather than something that adds value to more traditional academic activities. That's not the case at all universities; some not only reward faculty and staff for public service, but offer incentives in the form of compensation and credit for such work. President Rawlings came into office stressing his intention to improve relations between the community and the university. We've already started doing that with cooperative efforts like economic development: but just as important would be to create an institutional awareness of the importance of public sector involvement, and to encourage such activity. Brown University's recent pledge to help eradicate poverty in its host community of Providence has raised the bar for town gown relations. But it takes more than increasing financial contributions to make a difference. Cornell's biggest resource is its people, many of whom already have a passionate interest in national and international affairs. Can you imagine what would happen if just a small portion of that creativity and energy were directed at local issues? I urge you as policy makers to take a good hard look at this situation. It's time to go beyond individual initiative and volunteerism, and to foster a major change in the campus culture by valuing members of the Cornell community as active citizens of Tompkins County. By continuing to work together on a wide range of initiatives, we can make Tompkins County a real model for New York State. 88 April 1, 1997 Regular Meeting Public Hearing - Local Law No. 1 of 1997 - A Local Law Repealing Local Law Nos. 2 of 1984 and 6 of 1985 - In Relation to the Alternate Veterans Exemption for Real Property Taxes Chair Mink called public hearing to order at 5:32 p.m. No member of the public wished to speak and the public hearing was closed at 5:33 p.m. Beverly Livesay, District No. 10 Representative, spoke for a constituent who opposes this because it is not a targeted benefit.

TCAD also reviewed their program initiatives that include business retention and expansion, the work of the Industrial Development Agency, and others. She said the presentation included a number of facts that she feels Board members would be interested in reviewing.

RESOLUTION NO. 62 - AUTHORIZATION TO CONTRACT WITH BETTER. HOUSING FOR TOMPKINS COUNTY, INC., (BHTC) FOR HOUSING PROGRAM IMPLEMENTATION SERVICES MOVED by Ms. Blanchard, seconded by Mr. Totman, and unanimously adopted by voice vote. WHEREAS, Tompkins County has had a contract with Better Housing for Tompkins County, Inc., (BHTC) for the provision of services related to implementing housing programs since 1992, and WHEREAS, the funding for these services has been and will continue to be provided exclusively from grant funds, and WHEREAS, the County is continuing to develop grant applications for new housing programs for itself as well as for municipalities in the County, now therefore be it RESOLVED, on recommendation of the Planning, Development and Education Committee, That the County be authorized to contract with BHTC for a period not to exceed three years for housing program implementation services in an amount not to exceed $60,000 per grant, RESOLVED, further, That the individual agreements for each grant program not be executed unless and until grant funds have been awarded for such purposes, 91 April 1, 1997 RESOLVED, further, That the County Administrator or his designee be authorized to sign a contract or contracts to this effect. SEQR ACTION: TYPE II -20 RESOLUTION NO. 63 - APPROVAL OF ADVISORY BOARD ON TOURISM DEVELOPMENT GRANTS MOVED by Ms. Blanchard, seconded by Mr. Stein. Mr. Lane said although he appreciates the work of the Advisory Board on Tourism Development in soliciting these grants, he does not approve of the process of reviewing the grant applications that were received. He said he has a problem giving additional money to the downtown BID. Mr. Lane feels there needs to be a better process because there are a lot of grant applications that are solicited and end up not being funded. Mr. Totman said he voted to approve this in Committee because there are some grants contained in the resolution that he firmly believes in, as well as some he does not. He said it has not been clearly explained to him what would happen if the entire resolution was voted down. He also believes there needs to be a better process used in awarding these grants. Mr. Stein said he doesn't think there is any Board member who is totally satisfied with this list, however, he asked that Board members consider what may happen if this resolution is defeated. He said there are worthwhile projects on the list that have been planning on the funding and this would be harmful to those groups. He said he will support the resolution because he feels it is a sense of compromise because voting against it will have more negative repercussions. Mr. Meskill said he feels there are creative things that can be done in a short amount of time to fund certain projects that are probably felt to be worthwhile by a majority of the Board. He feels the entire proposal is not consistent with the ABTD's goal and objectives, as its Chairman outlined earlier today at the Planning, Development, and Education Committee meeting. He said their main effort is to bring people in from out-of-town where they are required to stay overnight, and at the same time fund some programs that are not consistent with the grant money (he used signage for the State Theater as an example). Mr. Proto said when the Advisory Board on Tourism Development was founded, one of the concerns that existed were some of the things that the grant money was intended to support was community events for residents, and not everything had to be tied to drawing people in from out-of-town. He said in reading through the criteria, this is listed as one. Mr. Proto said one of the original concerns of the original review board were that the County specifically help out and provide events for community residents. Mr. Winch said he was concerned when he saw the proposed list, and said it concerns him that there is additional money for the downtown BID included. He said he supported the County's $5,800 contribution, however, he feels these awards represent a narrow focus towards the performing arts and feels a look needs to be taken at community celebrations. He said he would like the list re -reviewed and a modified list presented to the Board for consideration. Ms. Kiefer said when someone applies for a grant they are not guaranteed to receive it and by encouraging grant applications, you get a diversity of things that might be worthy of the money. She said she would like to support this list, however, she cannot support anything that gives money to New York State (Finger Lakes State Parks). 92 April 1, 1997 Ms. Mink said as the Chair of the Economic Development Committee for the last three years, the Committee oversaw the tourism program. She said a few years ago funding for community celebrations was cut from the general fund and it is legitimate to want to fund community celebrations through this money. Ms. Mink said she and Stuart Stein met with the former and current Chairmen of the Advisory Board on Tourism Development and talked about creating a pot of tourism money for community celebrations. She said they were asked by the ABTD not to do anything until the Advisory Board developed their strategic plan for the future. Ms. Blanchard urged Board members not to pick and choose items from proposed list. She said the strategic plan that the ABTD is coming out with in a short time will be the launch pad for the greater discussion of setting aside money for community celebrations. She hopes Board members will contribute to that discussion. Mrs. Schuler acknowledged she is employed by one of the recipients of these monies, and requested permission to abstain from voting. Chair Mink granted permission for Mrs. Schuler to abstain from voting. Ms. Kiefer said the New York State Parks grant is different from the others because the rules of the ABTD's grant awards need to be waived in order to give money to the State. She would like to send them a message that they should not he waiving that rule. It was MOVED by Ms. Kiefer to drop the Finger Lakes State Parks item from the list and to place the money back in the fund to be distributed at a later time. MOTION FAILED FOR LACK OF A SECOND. Ms. Kiefer was excused at 6:30 p.m. A roll call vote on the resolution resulted as follows: Ayes - 8 (Representatives Blanchard, Davis, Evans, Joseph, Livesay, Mink, Stein, and Totman); Noes - 5 (Representatives Lane, Meskill, Proto, Todd, and Winch); Abstentions - 1 (Representative Schuler); Excused - 1 (Representative Kiefer).

Mr. Meskill, District 15 Representative, thanked and commended William Benjamin, Criminal Justice Coordinator, for his work and productivity. He said Mr. Benjamin's efforts have not only benefited the County financially, but have taken the County and various agencies within the County in a new direction in a short period of time. Mr. Meskill reminded the Board the position was originally created for a trial period of two years, and said he will be asking that the position be continued at the appropriate time during the budget process. 107 April 15, 1997 Mr. Winch, District No. 8 Representative, reported last week he spoke to a fourth grade class at Newfield Central School about the purpose of the eight percent sales tax.

Mr. Squires reported the property foreclosure auction was held and said 21 of the 25 parcels were sold. He said the County gained approximately $45,000 over the amount of taxes that were due on the properties. Mr. Squires said he will keep the Board informed on the status of those properties that were not auctioned. He said his office will be working with a Realtor to try to sell the remaining parcels. He noted Tompkins County's property tax delinquency rate of three percent is one of the lowest in the State. Mr. Stein thanked Mr. Squires for providing him with information on comparative sales taxes for 1995-96 for surrounding counties. Mr. Stein said he was surprised that an article in the Ithaca Times stated Tompkins County's increases in sales tax has been small when compared to surrounding counties. He said sales tax has become a major source of support for County services and is a way of relieving the 108 April 15, 1997 property tax burden, he is concerned that a trend is beginning that surrounding counties are taking over Tompkins County's retail sales. He suggested that Tompkins County should be looking into some different types of economic development issues. Mr. Meskill cautioned against making any kind of conclusion that is based on only one year of information.

He said if Tompkins County wants economic development, there has to be industrial jobs and also commercial jobs.

She said if the State Legislature removes sales tax on apparel under $500, everyone will also be effected. Mr. Proto said he and Representatives Joseph and Winch attended a meeting of the P.O.W.ER.

He said if Tompkins County did this it would cost $408,000 in revenue; this would be the equivalent of a 2.3 percent property tax increase.

Mr. Joseph said a letter has also been sent to the municipalities to see how they feel. The Committee also discussed budget forms; department heads were in attendance and raised three issues: the idea of having a substantive review of programs that is separate from the budget process; a request that Board members keep open minds about restructuring of budgeting units, and a request for a reconsideration of target -setting criteria during a time of budget surpluses. 109 April 15, 1997 RESOLUTION NO. 79 - ALLOCATION OF FUNDS TO HIRE CONSULTANT FOR ELECTRIC POWER OVERVIEW STUDY MOVED by Mr. Joseph, seconded by Mr. Stein.

RESOLUTION NO. 80 - APPROPRIATION FROM CONTINGENT FUND - COMPUTER EQUIPMENT - OFFENDER AID AND RESTORATION (OAR) MOVED by Mr. Meskill, seconded by Mr. Evans. Mr. Proto said he continues to oppose this resolution because he feels it is inappropriate to take money from the Contingent Fund to purchase equipment for a free-standing agency. He said he also feels it is inappropriate when an organization receives a majority of its funding from an allocation from the Human Services Coalition.

Ms. Kiefer stated that even though something is on the Terminal Area Plan now, when the time comes and the need is there, that it could still be moved. She said this makes it unclear why it was necessary to make sure the road got relocated in this Plan.

Mr. Joseph discussed the first-quarter sales tax distribution for Tompkins County. Mr. Joseph explained how sales tax is collected and calculated, and explained the numbers do not tell the story they appear to be telling. He said sales tax is collected by merchants and sent to the State and then sent back to the County quarterly. The amount the County receives from the State is based on the early submission that merchants have made on estimates and it is a rough approximation of how much was collected; the amount is always wrong and that is why adjustments need to be made. Mr. Joseph said there are some long-term data which says the sales tax data have been flat for the last three years, however, the reason why is not known and assumptions should not be made. The County recently hired an Economic Development Planner who will be making a detailed analysis of sales tax data and will be looking at better ways to manage economic data.

SEQR ACTION: TYPE II -20" It was MOVED by Ms. Blanchard, seconded by Mr. Lane, to substitute the resolution with the following resolution: "WHEREAS, the Town of Dryden is celebrating its Bicentennial in 1997 with an ambitious year- long series of events culminating in a final day of festivities on August 16, 1997, and WHEREAS, Tompkins County recognizes the benefits of such celebrations to the local community as well as to the County as a whole, and WHEREAS, the County has traditionally provided support for commemorative celebrations such as centennials and bicentennials, now therefore be it RESOLVED, That Tompkins County grant the sum of $7,500 to the Town of Dryden for its Bicentennial celebration, RESOLVED, further, That the cost thereof be allocated from the County's Contingency Fund. SEQR ACTION: TYPE II -20" Ms. Kiefer said the resolution makes no mention that Dryden tried in a timely way to obtain this money from a different source, and feels this makes it look like Dryden is coming to the County Board at the last minute. Mr. Joseph said language in the original resolution makes several references to Dryden's efforts to obtain tourism money and being rejected. He said the intent of this resolution is to say this is being funded because it is a bicentennial celebration. He said we are not making an invitation to everyone who was rejected for tourism money to come to the Board and request funding. Mr. Lane acknowledged James Schug, Town of Dryden Mayor who was in attendance and said this is a smaller amount of money than the Town of Dryden asked for. He said this is a very ambitious event in the Town that has been going on for a full year. He noted this is really a two-year appropriation and said the Town put off asking for money last year in hopes of realizing money this year through the tourism grant process, which did not materialize. Mr. Meskill said unfortunately the Advisory Board on Tourism Development did not grant funds to the Dryden Bicentennial, and feels if this money is allocated tonight the door will be opened for other groups to come forward. He said he does not have a problem giving funding to celebrations, but not through Contingent Fund requests. Ms. Blanchard said the Advisory Board on Tourism Development will present a final draft of its strategic plan on May 8. She said as soon as that plan is accepted, the issue of celebrations will be addressed. A voice vote on the substitute wording resulted as follows: Ayes - 12, Noes - 2 (Representatives Kiefer and Meskill). MOTION CARRIED. Mr. Winch said he is curious about additional monies for celebrations as it relates to the Newfield Old Home Days. Ms. Blanchard said she feels there is not support for general celebrations in 1997. She 125 May 6, 1997 said she feels for 1997 the only types of celebrations that will have enough votes to pass will be those that have a special commemorative quality to them. A short roll call vote on the substitute resolution resulted as follows: Ayes - 13, Noes - 1 (Representative Meskill); Excused - 1 (Representative Proto). RESOLUTION ADOPTED.

Privilege of the Floor by the Public No member of the public wished to speak. Privilege of the Floor by Board Members Mr. Lane, District No. 14 Representative, reported on Memorial Day activities that will take place in the Town of Dryden on May 26th, and said a parade will begin at 10:30 a.m. and will be followed by the annual Memorial Day activities and a dedication of the bicentennial fountain. Mr. Lane said everyone is invited to attend. Mrs. Livesay, District No. 11 Representative, made the following statement: "Fellow Board members, County employees, and members of the public who may be watching; I want you to be the first to know of my decision not to seek another term on this Board. My reasons are many, both public and private, but primary among them is my belief that a public body, such as this, needs a balance between continuity and renewal. Most of you have already announced your intentions to seek reelection, and while the voters will decide in each case, I feel confident that most of you will be members of the next Board. The best course for me, then, is to open the opportunity for another community member to serve and to contribute fresh ideas. My personal reasons are neither profound nor alarming. I have stayed longer than I expected when I first offered my services to my district and this County. There is opportunity to serve the community and County beyond the confines of Board membership, as many devoted community volunteers are well aware. Being a member of this Board provides opportunity to affect the policy direction of the County, but because we take on responsibilities that are much broader than our own priorities we are limited in our abilities to pursue our own policy agendas. I have no immediate plans but to do the best job I can for the remaining months of my term. Health benefits reform and the whole subject of adequate provision of health care would be more than enough to keep me engaged. Welfare reform is going to be a big job not only for all of us, but for the community. I am not going to list all of the jobs I have yet to do. I will not slacken my effort and look forward to continuing a good working relationship with all of you in the months ahead. There are many satisfying achievements of my tenure on this Board. Services to children and the elderly, the resolution of the very troubling, contentious and rapidly changing solid waste problems, and the development of a fair compensation program for employees are only a few. There have, of course, been disappointments and frustrations, but I forget what they were. 129 May 20, 1997 I will certainly remain actively involved in the community and with those issues that I care about. I will, however, set my own priorities. I look forward to more time for my private life, more time for my family, friends, and fun. It has been both a challenge and a privilege to serve on the Board and has been very rewarding." Mr. Stein, District No. 3 Representative, said he has served with Representative Livesay longer than any other Board member. He commended Mrs. Livesay for the great contributions she has made to this County. Addition of Resolution(s) to the Agenda On motion of the appropriate committee chairmen and duly seconded and unanimously adopted by voice vote, the following resolution(s) were added to the agenda: Amend 1997 Capital Program Building Assessment and Indoor Air Quality - Courthouse Annex Building (Building C) Local Waterfront Revitalization Program - Acceptance of New York State Grant - Authorization to Enter into Agreements; Establishing Budget for 1997 Appropriation from Contingent Fund - Newfield Old Home Days Withdrawal of Resolution(s) from the Agenda Chair Mink gave the appropriate committee chairmen permission to withdraw from the agenda the following resolution(s): Adopting the Report of the Employee Day Care Task Force To Enact Formal Participation by the Tompkins County Office for the Aging in the Gateway Consortium Acceptance of Strategic Plan for Tourism Development by the Advisory Board on Tourism Development Executive Session Requests Mr. Todd requested an executive session to discuss a personnel matter.

Report from the County Attorney Mr. Theisen had no report other than his executive session requests made earlier in the meeting. Report from the Finance Director Mr. Squires reported his Office will be sending out reminder notices for the second portion of the town and County installment tax bills that are due by July 1. Last year 1,800 notices were sent out; this year 3,000 are being sent. He attributes this increase to a greater number of people taking advantage of the change in the Law to provide for the installment to be paid at the same time as the County bill. Appointment(s) Approved Under the Consent Agenda It was MOVED by Mrs. Schuler, seconded by Mr. Totman, to approve the appointment(s) under the Consent Agenda. Ms. Kiefer said the forms she received have the two representatives for the Advisory Board on Tourism Development both listed as restaurant representatives; therefore, she will register a negative vote. A voice vote on the appointment(s) listed below resulted as follows: Ayes - 14, Noes - 1 (Representative Kiefer). APPOINTMENTS APPROVED. Community Affirmative Action Committee Valerie Hayes - Human Rights Representative - term expires December 31, 1997 Brenda Aulbach - At -large Representative - term expires December 31, 1997 Lynn Shreve - At -large Representative - term expires December 31, 1998 Advisory Board on Tourism Development Leslie Leonard - Innkeeper Representative - term expires December 31, 1998 Trevis Gleason- Restaurant Representative - term expires December 31, 1998 Report and Presentation of Resolution(s) from the Library Improvement Committee Mrs. Schuler, Chair, reported the Committee has been meeting on a regular basis and has submitted the following resolution for the Board's consideration. RESOLUTION NO. 96 - AWARD OF CONTRACT - PRELIMINARY DESIGN - TOMPKINS COUNTY PUBLIC LIBRARY - SPACE IMPROVEMENT PROJECT 131 May 20, 1997 MOVED by Mrs. Schuler, seconded by Mr. Stein. Mr. Meskill said the second RESOLVED indicates the County is hereby authorized to execute change orders up to ten percent of the contract amount with a total amount of $20,729, and in the first RESOLVED it indicates that the payment to the architect is $37,700; it is unclear to him how ten percent of the $37,700 equals $20,729. Mrs. Schuler said the $20,729 is ten percent of the total capital project amount. Mr. Meskill said he feels if the change order refers to the total capital project, then there should be reference to the that amount, and if any money has been spent to date on any change order. James Kazda, Senior Civil Engineer, said the ten percent change order authorization represents ten percent of any contract that is executed as a result of the resolution. The total capital project amount that was allocated to the Library improvement project is $150,000. This money was allocated for some work on the Library, as well as the initial phase of this study project. Following a lengthy discussion, wording was incorporated into the resolution in an attempt to resolve concerns raised by Board members. Mr. Winch suggested each Board member keep monthly updates of capital projects in Board desks. A voice vote on the resolution resulted as follows: Ayes - 13, Noes - 2 (Representatives Meskill and Proto). RESOLUTION ADOPTED. WHEREAS, in December 1996, the County Board approved a Capital Project of $150,000 for Capital Project HB1641.9239 for Library Improvements of feasibility studies for space improvement options of which $58,425 remains, and WHEREAS, on January 29, 1997 Tompkins County issued an RFP for architectural consulting services in connection with four possible space -improvement options for the Tompkins County Public Library, namely: 1) No new construction.

SEQR ACTION: TYPE I1-20 Report from the Governmental Operations Committee Mr. Evans, Chairman, reported the Committee met this afternoon and heard a report from the Partners for an Electronic Future. The report states that the group is working together in groups and will be able to greatly enhance the current network system, save money, and connect many entities. Mr. Evans will distribute copies of the report to each Board member. Mr. Evans read the following resolution which only requires Committee action: "WHEREAS, the County has been participating in the Partnership for an Electronic Future to establish agreements relating to the sharing of internet technology and related services among local governmental and educational not-for-profit institutions, and WHEREAS, the Partnership for an Electronic Future has formed a consortium for the first purpose of obtaining internet access and related services, subject to the attached letters of intent, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, That the Information Services Department is authorized to issue a Request for Proposals describing service needs, RESOLVED, further, That the agency establish an account to hold the funds generated by PEF membership fees and/or other fees assessed to the Partnership activities, RESOLVED, further, That Tompkins County will provide its $500 membership fee as in-kind services to the PEF."

The Committee will also be.. discussing changing the legal number of members on this Board from a minimum of 11 to a total of 19. Presentation from the Budget and Personnel Committee Kathy West, Deputy County Administrator, gave the Board a slide presentation on proposed reorganization of Budgeting Units and Programs. She said under the current budget structure, the Fiscal Policy states that a budgeting unit is the fundamental unit of Board of Representatives decision making 133 May 20, 1997 with respect to the budget. It goes on to say only budgeting units receive appropriations, have fiscal targets, or are the recipients of special requests. She said transfers between budgeting units are virtually impossible to detect in departments with more than one budgeting unit, and presented a proposal to correct the problem in the 1998 budget process. Report from the Bucket and Personnel Committee Mr. Joseph, Chairman, reported on the fund balance. He stated as of the end of 1996 the General Fund Balance has $3 million in unallocated funds. This is very close to where it was at the end of 1995. He noted solid waste turned out to have an over -target amount of $787,000 and said this is attributed to efforts of staff becoming more efficient and conserving funds, accompanied by a significant increase in what the County was getting for recycling. He also noted a continued decline in DSS caseloads, which accounts for $1.6 million of the unallocated funds. He said options for use of this money include: set aside money for unpredictable expenses such as Welfare Reform and Health Insurance, keeping the tax rate down, and an attempt to do something that would result in long-term tax reduction such as paying down some of the County's debt load. Recess Chair Mink declared recess from 7:00 to 7:05 p.m. Report from the Rural/Urban Coordination Committee Mr. Lane, Chairman, reported the Committee met on May 14 and had an interesting discussion on youth services. The Committee invited Beverly Livesay, Chair of the Health. and Human Services Committee; Nancy Zahler, Director of the Tompkins County Youth Bureau; and Sam Cohen, Director of the City Youth Bureau, to tack about the functions of the two youth bureau offices and the possibility of whether there would be a cost savings if services were combined. Mr. Lane said it was explained to the Committee how the County Youth Bureau does not provide direct services, but coordinates services. The Committee will be following this issue later in the year. Mr. Lane said the Committee passed a resolution that basically authorizes the County to work cooperatively in the area of purchasing with other municipalities; municipalities will be encouraged to adopt similar resolutions. Mr. Lane reported on a survey the Purchasing Division has been conducting of 48 entities including municipalities, fire departments and volunteer ambulance services to see if there is any interest in a joint purchasing arrangements. He introduced David Smole, Cornell University student, who will be the Committee's intern. Mr. Smole will be helping the Committee with various research projects. Report and Presentation of Resolution(s) from the Health and Human Services Committee Mrs. Livesay, Chair, reported the Committee met on May 13 and had a report from the Transition Task Force. She reported on funding for Youth Bureau programs, and said over the summer the Youth Bureau will continue to fund three of the programs that were in question at the end of last year, with no additional funds being requested at this time. The Committee had discussion with Irene Stein, Director of the Office for the Aging, about space issues at that Office since Courthouse security has been in place. Since that time, clientele to that Office has decreased because of the difficulty in access to the Office. The Office has identified a downtown space to relocate, but no decision has been made at this time. Mrs. Livesay said Lauren Austin, Human Rights Director, distributed several information items to the Committee; if any Board member is interested in this information, they should contact the Clerk of the Board. Mrs. Livesay said the Committee heard a report on the day-care task force that is addressing day- care in Tompkins County as a result of Welfare Reform. The Committee continues to address Welfare Reform.

He reported on the public works tour that was held, and noted a full- length tour was taken of Perry City Road. He said one of the reasons that road gets a great amount of use is because it is a direct runoff of the Dewitt gravel operation on the other side of the County. He reported on a joint meeting that was held with the Capital Program Committee where HVAC in the Courthouse was discussed. Mr. Todd said town supervisors and highway superintendents have been invited to the next meeting on May 22 to discus coordination of roads and building maintenance that the County has with the towns.

Privilege of the Floor by the Public Calvin Criss, City of Ithaca, spoke in reference to child day care and said he doesn't feel taxpayers should have to pay day-care expenses for the public. He said he wants parents to become more responsible and take care of their own children. Mr. Criss also feels there should be less administrators in day care centers and more teachers. Don Lifton, South Hill resident and member of Justice For All, spoke about a liveable wage. He referred to the Vision Statement this Board adopted that shows a commitment of this Board that everyone who wishes to work should be allowed to work and receive a livable wage. Mr. Lifton noted the difference between minimum wage and a livable wage, saying minimum wage is what an employer is allowed to get away with paying, and a livable wage gives a person the opportunity to sustain the quality of life that the Board envisions. He said County government should consider a policy where it will not do business with any institution that is not paying a livable wage. He expressed concern that in the Tompkins County Public Library's efforts to reduce costs, that they may try to reduce the current livable wages to a level he does not feel would be acceptable. Peter Bottorff, Vice President of P.O.W.E.R. (People Opposed to Wasteful Elected Representatives), said that organization opposes any wage cut for Tompkins County Public Library personnel. P.O.W.E.R. wants a fair and livable wage for everyone in Tompkins County. Mr. Bottorff suggested the Library look for other ways to cut costs. Merritt Queen, Town of Ithaca, spoke in opposition to any salary cuts at the Tompkins County Public Library. He said the Library is a source for enriching everyone's life. He said stressed the importance in consistency in the ideals that have already been set by this Board. William Gibson, Town of Ithaca resident and member of Justice for All, spoke in opposition to wage reductions for employees at the Tompkins County Public Library. Privilege of the Floor by Board Members Mr. Evans, District No. 13 Representative, reported on a program that came to his attention about a week ago called Faces of Addiction. This is a S3.3 million program produced by Home Box Office. He said the community components are communication action pack, a curriculum package for schools, a parent's guide, a site on the World Wide Web, and a help line. In addition, three programs have been prepared that will show on Time Warner Cable. He said Time Warner Cable should be commended for showing these programs to the community without charge. Ms. Kiefer, District No. 10 Representative, said she distributed a memorandum to Board members regarding marching in the Flag Day Parade that is sponsored by the VFW and Elks. She asked how many Board members would be marching in the Parade. She said the lineup at Washington Park will begin at 1 p.m. 142 June 3, 1997 Mr. Joseph, District No. 12 Representative, said he was pleased with the comments made by the public under Privilege of the Floor on the subject of a livable wage. He outlined some of the work he has been doing as a member of the Health and Human Services Committee in regard to Welfare Reform. He said one of the most difficult problems with Welfare Reform is how to move people from welfare to work, and how to ensure that when they make that move that it is really a move off welfare. He said the situation exists too often where a person is working and still eligible for welfare. Mr. Joseph said it is important that people are moved into jobs that remove them from eligibility for public benefits; this means there needs to be an increase in the number of livable -wage jobs in this community. Mr. Joseph said it would not be a positive leadership sign if the Tompkins County Public Library led to the elimination of livable -wage jobs. He said he feels that it is not only possible for businesses to pay a livable wage to its employees, but essential. Mr. Lane, District No. 14 Representative, reported the Dryden Bicentennial Celebration continues. He said the Fountain is spectacular and everyone should see it.

County employees, both with and without children of daycare/childcare age, strongly support a voucher benefit system. 2. County employees recognize that the current daycare facility in the Biggs Complex does not represent the most convenient location, given the job and home locations of most employees. 3. The costs to implement a voucher benefit system similar to that operated by the City of Ithaca have been estimated as being between $110,000 and $150,000 per year. A copy of the full report has been placed on file in the Board Office. RESOLUTION NO. - ADOPTING THE REPORT OF THE EMPLOYEE DAY CARE TASK FORCE MOVED by Mrs. Livesay, seconded by Ms. Davis.

Ms. Kiefer said she was concerned how the County would determine the income available to the client. Mr. Evans said the client's income tax information would be used to determine the fee that would be paid by the client. Ms. Kiefer said she is also concerned there is no dollar amount attached to this, and being asked to vote on a change in fees at a time other than budget -time. Mr. Evans said a majority of clients are Medicaid eligible and this is not a major source of income for the clinic; however, it is important that a client pay a fee for services. He said right now the Clinic writes off a substantial amount in fees, and this not in the best interest of the Clinic or the client. Ms. Kiefer was told the Board would receive an estimate from the Department how this will change the dollar amounts. He noted this action has minimal affect on the budget.

Present: 15 Representatives. Privilege of the Floor by the Public No member of the public wished to speak. Privilege of the Floor by Board Members Mr. Todd, District No. 6 Representative, made the following statement: "I want to talk about the level of economic activity in Tompkins County and pose some questions for you. I became interested as a result of receiving the sales tax data from David Squires. More information was made available by Scott Heyman. The news media and the Economist from Ithaca College and Mike Stamm also have provided numbers. The most interesting of the data are: 1. Our sales tax revenue is flat. 2. Our neighboring counties all are enjoying sizable sales tax increases (5% to 10% per year). 3. Our unemployment rate is 3.3%-3/5%. 4. Our neighboring counties start at 5% and go to 10%. 5. 15% of the workforce in Tompkins County lives in another county. (I suspect, but do not have numbers to prove, that many of these 15% of the workforce spend their paycheck in their county.) 6. Mike Stamm did a study that showed 50% of 1000 new manufacturing jobs in Tompkins County were filled by people from other counties. Here are four questions and their must be others: 1. Why is our sales tax flat? 2. Should economic development in Tompkins County focus on retail development? 3. Is it counter-productive to focus economic development on manufacturing if half of the paychecks leave our county? 4. Has anyone analyzed the 3.5% unemployment in Tompkins County to determine the types of jobs these people would most likely succeed in? As the elected County Board of Representatives we should think about this economic data and the questions the data raise. I have favored economic development and will continue to, but we need to consider carefully the results of our actions in this area." 168 July 1, 1997 Ms. Blanchard, Planning, Development and Education Committee, said the kick-off is beginning for the economic development strategy plan and asked to be provided with a copy of Representative Todd's remarks. Mr. Todd said he would see that she receives a copy. Mr. Meskill, District No. 15 Representative, extended happy birthday wishes to his father, Joe Meskill who will celebrate his birthday on July 4th. Mrs. Livesay, District No. 11 Representative, extended happy birthday wishes to her granddaughter. Mr. Stein, District No. 3 Representative, extended happy birthday wishes to Representative Winch who will celebrate his birthday on July 2. Mr. Proto, District No. 7 Representative, extended happy 90th birthday wishes to Representative Livesay's mother. Mrs. Livesay, District No. 11 Representative, referred to Representative Todd's comments and said the issues he has raised have been of interest to her for a long time. She reported on statistics Mary Pat Dolan, Commissioner of Social Services, has pulled together. She said she is very interested in participating in finding solutions to the questions Representative Todd has raised. Chair Mink said the clearly laid -out questions stated by Representative Todd are a very positive step in the County's efforts to solve these problems. Chair's Report and Appointment(s) Chair Mink said there was a good example of intermunicipal cooperation set today when she met with the City of Ithaca Mayor and the Deputy Supervisor of the Town of Ithaca and the three presented a proclamation designating July 3 as Community Fireworks Day in Tompkins County. Chair Mink announced the Tompkins Cortland Community College budget meeting scheduled for July 10 has been canceled. Addition of Resolutions) to the Agenda On motion and duly seconded and unanimously adopted by voice vote, the resolution entitled To Retain a Consultant to Monitor Electric Power Negotiations Currently Underway in Albany was added to the agenda. The resolution entitled Approval of Agreement Between Tompkins County and the Tompkins County Corrections' Officers Association was added to the agenda during executive session.

Bus Operation to the Airport Report by the County Administrator Mr. Heyman reported on the status of the agencies and County Departments currently housed in the Biggs A building that will not be moving to the new Human Services Building. Those agencies are 169 July 1, 1997 the Tompkins County Economic Opportunity Corporation, FOODNET, the County's records operation, Buildings and Grounds Administrative Offices and work areas, New York State Police substation, and the Human Rights Department. Mr. Heyman said he continues to actively work with developers for the building; however, if no developer is found the County will heat the building through this winter. Report by the County Attorney Mr. Theisen reported the County acquired the last property for Human Services Building parking about a week and a half ago. He also reported on the nationwide tobacco lawsuit, and said the proposed settlement indicates substantial monies are being paid to the different states. He said there is an argument that half of the money New York State receives should come to the counties. This Board needs to decide if it wants to pursue this; if so, a statement should be sent to the Attorney General asking for this. Mr. Theisen said it is unclear at this time how the settlement monies can be used; he will continue to follow this. It was noted the settlement still needs to be approved by Congress and the President. Mr. Stein said this Board adopted a resolution in 1996 that essentially said Tompkins County would participate with Erie County in a class action suit on the tobacco matter. He asked what relevance that action has to what is happening now. Mr. Theisen could not provide an answer to this; however, said he would look into this and will provide the Board with a comprehensive report at the next meeting. Mr. Theisen announced he now has electronic mail capabilities. Report by the Finance Director Mr. Squires had no report. Consent Agenda There were no items on the Consent Agenda. Report from the Rural/Urban Coordination Committee Mr. Lane, Chairman, reported the Committee met on June 25 at the Ithaca -Tompkins Transit Center and discussed how to approach highway issues. The Committee will be gathering information that has already been compiled through the Cornell Local Roads Program both on consolidation and decentralization. He said discussions that have taken place have already led to the County Public Works Department and highway superintendents thinking of ways to work cooperatively. The Committee received a final report on the purchasing survey that was done, and asked that a meeting be set up with municipalities to see if there is an interest in establishing a purchasing council. He reported the Committee recommended that the hours of Chris Brill, Buyer, be increased from 35 to 40 through the end of the year so that she can proceed with the administrative work. Mr. Lane reported on the survey of police agencies within Tompkins County, and said responses are being received and meetings with officials are being scheduled. He said the Committee has decided to start meeting in municipalities; the first is being scheduled for July 22. The next meeting will be July 9 at 8:15 a.m. at the Transit Center. Report and Presentation of Resolution(s) from the Health and Human Services Committee Mrs. Livesay, Chair, reported the Committee met on June 21 and had a report from the Office for the Aging's HOST program on shared living residence activity in the County. She said the Committee received an update on the funding cycle for the Youth Bureau. Mrs. Livesay and Mr. Joseph met with City representatives on the Task. Force report and recommendations. She said the Committee moved forward on its involvement in Welfare Reform and adopted a set of goals that are consistent with the County's goals. The Committee has been divided into five task groups with each member serving as chair of one of the groups, involvement by other Board members is encouraged. The next meeting will 170 July 1, 1997 be July 8 at 2 p.m. Mr. Winch said at the last Town of Newfield Board meeting he was approached about the DSS safetynet questionnaire that was sent to the towns.

Mr. Carlson said since 1991 the County has been very successful in obtaining grants for housing and economic development purposes. She said $7.3 million has been received, of which $3 million was for housing rehabilitation. Mr. Carlson also updated the Committee on New York State's attempts to take over the Community Block Grant Program, and confirmed this effort has been abandoned. However, Mr. Carlson said the State will likely try to do this again in 1998. The Committee also heard from David Stoyle of the HOST (Housing Opportunities for Seniors) program, and said the funding for that program has run out and that they will be looking for local funds to support those services. The Committee also received a report by the Economic Opportunity Corporation on housing and the Section 8 rental program. A relatively new EOC tenant -based rental -assistance program was introduced to the Committee that helps landlords in rehabilitating their properties and makes it possible for assisted households to live there. Better Housing for Tompkins County was also in attendance at the meeting and explained how they cooperate with the Planning Department in using the HUD Community Development Block Grant funds to promote home ownership. Red Cross representatives also attended the meeting and said as the local provider for the homeless, they are observing declining numbers of people needing emergency housing. They are giving much of the credit for this to the homeless prevention program being run for the last two years by the Red Cross. Ms. Blanchard said at the last meeting, the Committee heard a report from the Agricultural and Farmland Protection Board on farming and the importance of agriculture in Tompkins County. The Soil and Water Conservation District reported Jeff Carmichael from Cayuga County, has been hired to be the 171 July 1, 1997 new District Manager and will begin work on July 8. A reception for him will be held in the fall and all Board members will be invited.

Mr. Winch said he did not support this at the Committee level because of a growing concern in the public with the increase in the size of government. It was stated the proposed local law says the numerical composition would be changed to 11 to 19 from 15 to 20 as stated in the current Charter and Code. Following further discussion, Mr. Evans said he will withdraw this resolution from the agenda, and will request that a Committee -of -the -Whole meeting be held prior to the next Board meeting to discuss this.

Mr. Joseph said at the last Committee meeting, the auditors (hired by the County) reported everything was fine in the County's books. He stated the Committee discussed budget scenarios and concluded even if no over -target spending was authorized this year, it would be very difficult to hold taxes down. The reasons include an increase of approximately $600,000 in the County's annual debt service payment, and $330,000 was spent last year out of the Fund Balance for tax relief., which simply postponed that amount of tax increase one year.

He stated the negotiations between the investor-owned utilities in New York State and the staff of the Public Service Commission for deregulation that are ongoing in Albany, have been completed and are being presented in draft form to the public. Mr. Stein said the only negotiations that remain are with NYSEG. He said following the release of these discussions to the public there will be a period of time for public discussion and debate. He explained the period of time Tompkins County will be able to have a say in what is going on and how the County feels about those negotiations. At that time rules and rates which will govern what we pay, will be set. RESOLUTION NO. 146 - TO RETAIN A CONSULTANT TO MONITOR ELECTRIC POWER NEGOTIATIONS CURRENTLY UNDERWAY IN ALBANY MOVED by Mr. Stein, seconded by Mr. Proto. Ms. Kiefer said she wonders if it would make sense to have individual County Boards say don't deregulate and instead of New York State taking the lead on this issue, wait and see what happens in other States. It was felt this would be a good question to pose to the consultants. Following discussion, a short roll call vote on the resolution resulted as follows: Ayes - 15, Noes - 0. RESOLUTION ADOPTED.

Mr. Winch also thanked the Board for the contribution that was given to the Newfield Old Home Day Committee. Mr. Stein, District No. 3 Representative, responded to the comments made by Ms. Bartlett under Privilege of the Floor by the Public. He said he has always been a person who has encouraged people to enter into public discussion and debate that is based upon fact with people being able to express their own opinion without fear of retribution. He stated the worst aspect of this kind of discussion is the type that has been heard this evening, an anonymous letter that attacks a person personally. He said if someone feels strongly about something they should sign their name to the letter and stand up for what they believe. Mr. Proto, District No. 7 Representative, referred to Mr. Stein's comments, and said when the Board was looking into citing a landfill several years ago, many Board members encountered similar problems with letters. Mr. Proto said two events are taking place in the Caroline area this weekend; one 182 July 15, 1997 between the Senior Citizens and Fire Hall; and a summer festival in Speedsville.

Mr. Theisen said Erie County decided in January that they were pursing that lawsuit on their own. He said that case is still pending and he will keep the Board informed. Mr. Stein questioned if Erie County has decided to continue to pursue its own case, whether Tompkins County should commence a lawsuit as well. Mr. Theisen said Tompkins County is part of the class action lawsuit for the State; however, he will try to get an answer to Mr. Stein's question as soon as possible and report back to the Health and Human Services Committee. Mr. Theisen reported on the Biggs A worker's compensation claims and said a copy of the Worker's Compensation Judge's opinion was distributed to all Board members.

RESOLVED, on recommendation of the Governmental Operations Committee, That a public hearing be held before the Board of Representatives at Board Chambers of the Tompkins County Courthouse, 320 North Tioga Street, Ithaca, New York, on Tuesday, August 5, 1997, at 5:30 o'clock in the evening thereof concerning proposed Local Law No. 4 of 1997, Amending the Tompkins County Charter and Code to Change the Allowed Range of Numerical Composition of the Board of Representatives. At such time and place all persons interested in the subject matter will be heard concerning the same. RESOLVED, further, That the Clerk of the Board is hereby authorized and directed to place proper notice of such public hearing in the official newspaper of the County. SEQR ACTION: TYPE II - 20 Presentation of Resolution(s) and Report from the Budget and Personnel Committee RESOLUTION NO. 159 - AUTHORIZING A PUBLIC HEARING ON PROPOSED LOCAL LAW NO. 3 OF 1997 - ELECTING AN EARLY RETIREMENT INCENTIVE PROGRAM AS AUTHORIZED BY CHAPTER 41 OF THE LAWS OF 1997 FOR THE ELIGIBLE EMPLOYEES OF THE COUNTY OF TOMPKINS MOVED by Mr. Joseph, seconded by Mr. Stein, and unanimously adopted by voice vote by members present. RESOLVED, on recommendation of the Budget and Personnel Committee, That a public hearing be held before the Board of Representatives at Board Chambers of the Tompkins County Courthouse, 320 North Tioga Street, Ithaca, New York, on Tuesday, August 5, 1997, at 5:30 o'clock in the evening thereof concerning proposed Local Law No. 3 of 1997 - Electing a Retirement Incentive Program as Authorized by Chapter 41, Laws of 1997, for the Eligible Employees of the County of Tompkins. At such time and place all persons interested in the subject matter will be heard concerning the same, RESOLVED, further, That the Clerk of the Board is hereby authorized and directed to place proper notice of such public hearing in the official newspaper of the County. SEQR ACTION: TYPE II - 20 Mr. Joseph, Chairman, said the budget year for TC3 (Tompkins Cortland Community College) is based on the school year, rather than the calendar year. He said because TC3 employees are employees of record of Tompkins County they are part of the County's insurance pool. Therefore, any increases seen by the County affect the College as well. Mr. Joseph said the proposed TC3 budget is based upon a three percent increase and fails to deal with the cost of health insurance. He said in order to deal with the cost of health insurance, the College needs to request an additional $150,000 from the Sponsors (Tompkins and Cortland counties). Mr. Joseph said TC3 needs to know whether to prepare a budget with them staying with Tompkins County or going with B.O.C.E.S. If Tompkins County tells them they should stay with us, there will be a conflict with Cortland because it is clearly in their interest for TC3 to go with B.O.C.E.S. Mr. Joseph distributed the following information: 190 STAY IN TC POOL MOVE TO BOCES July 15, 1997 TC3 Health Insurance TC COST INCREASE CORTLAND COST INCREASE $100,000 $50,000 $0 in 1998 $0 $104,000 later Mr. Joseph said there are some risks in having TC3 employees go to B.O.C.E.S.; however, he said there has been a long series of numbers that keep changing. He said he is influenced by what is going on in the Health Benefits Reform Committee and in the rest of the world with health insurance. It appears right now that even though Blue Cross/Blue Shield does not have an agreement with the local hospital, the discounts they have with other hospitals, make them the cheapest carrier. Mr. Joseph questioned whether this will continue to be true, because all of the hospitals with which they have discounts have only one-year contracts. He said he thinks the situation is going to change and the County should be prepared to move rapidly to get the best deal it can. He also thinks in a situation where there is very much influx going on, it makes sense to look for short term savings and take them when you can. Mr. Joseph noted that TC3has made it clear it does not make any difference which way they go. Mr. Meskill said he feels he is being asked to make a last minute decision and disagrees with Mr. Joseph. He feels there is no short term savings in the health care area; the only savings achieved are by passing costs to employees or changing the prescription drug plan. Mr. Meskill said he is very concemed what impact the loss of TC3 employees in the plan would have other County employees. He said he hopes this issue will return to the Budget and Personnel Committee. Mr. Lane said he agrees with Mr. Meskill. He said the problem he sees is the short-term savings versus the potential long-term costs. As a joint venture in this, Cortland needs to also share in cost increases and he feels they would be willing to. Mr. Lane said he does not know what is going to happen with health insurance, but feels the larger the group, the less it will cost. Mr. Totman said he agrees with the comments stated by Mr. Meskill and Mr. Lane. During discussion, many Board members expressed concern that the number of participants in the County's health insurance remain as high as possible. Mr. Stein said if large numbers are important, is it possible to have Tompkins County join the B.O.C.E.S. pool? He said he hears many opinions that are based on speculation and feels the County should take the $100,000 savings at this time. Mr. Joseph said the Committee is looking into many different options. He said Cortland County would like TC3 go with B.O.C.E.S. Mr. Winch said he agrees with Mr. Meskill's comments and concern with short-term savings. By a show of hands of the majority of the Board, it was decided that Mr. Joseph shall relay a message to TC3 and Cortland County. The message will be Tompkins County would like the College to prepare a budget with an additional request for $100,000 to cover health insurance costs. Report from the RurallUrban Coordination Committee Mr. Lane, Chairman, reported the Committee met on July 9. At that meeting there was discussion of a request from the Village of Freeville concerning a short-term funding issue they need help with. The request for one-time funding from the County emanates out of their desire to consolidate police services with the Town of Dryden. After review, the Committee decided to send this request back 191 July 15, 1997 to the Village to ask them to relook at the structure of the request. Mr. Lane said there was also discussion of highway services and engineering service, He said the Committee has asked Mr. Mobbs to contact highway superintendents to get a better understanding of what is needed by municipalities in the area of engineering service. Mr. Lane reported the police services survey is well underway. The next Committee meeting will be held on July 22 at the Ulysses Town Hall at 7:30 p.m. At that meeting a presentation will be given on highway services. Report from the Electric Power Committee Mr. Stein, Chairman, said the final report from the Consultant, Schillinger, Salemi, and Boyd, was received today and distributed to all Board members and a copy mailed to all Committee members. Mr. Stein said a presentation will be given to the full Board on July 22. Mr. Stein reported he has no information on the alleged takeover of NYSEG. Report from the Health Benefits Committee Mrs. Livesay, Chair, reported the next meeting is scheduled for July 18 at 9 a.m. in the Old Jail Conference Room. Report from the Human Services Building Construction Committee Ms. Mink, Chair, reported the Andree property has been purchased. This property is intended to be used as a parking lot for employees. Report from the Leadership Council Ms. Mink, Chair, reported the Council met on July 10. She said Jerry Feist, Training Coordinator, has become very involved in County training efforts. The Leadership Council will soon begin looking at the speed of the Partners for Quality process. Report from the Library Improvement Committee Mrs. Schuler, Chair, reported the Committee has not met; however the architect and the consultant have been meeting regularly. Approval of Minutes It was MOVED by Mr. Proto, seconded by Ms. Kiefer, and unanimously adopted by voice vote by members present, to approve the minutes of July 1, 1997 as submitted. MINUTES APPROVED. Adjournment On motion the meeting adjourned at 7:35 p.m. to July 22 at 4:00 p.m. 192 July 15, 1997 COMMITTEE -OF -THE -WHOLE Attendance Present: 13 Representatives; Excused: 1 (Representative Blanchard); Absent: 1 (Representative Proto). Called to Order The meeting was called to order at 4:41 p.m. by Chair Mink. Composition of the Board Mr. Evans briefly explained the proposal from the Charter Review Committee. The recommendation from the Charter Review Committee is to change the composition of the Board to 11-19 members as opposed to the current 15-20 membership. In 1991, it was felt during the last reapportionment the optimum number of members would be 12. Mr. Joseph and Mr. Stein feel the next Reapportionment Committee should have as much flexibility as possible. Mr. Stein, former chair of the Reapportionment Committee, feels a larger Board would permit more responsiveness to residents in rural towns. Rural towns have expressed concern that they are split and do not each have their own representative on the Board. Ms. Kiefer stated her preference was to change the range of membership to 11-21, but said she voted for the Charter Committee's recommendation. Mr. Meskill also spoke in favor of the committee's recommendation. Mr. Winch spoke in opposition of an increase in membership of the Board. Mr. Evans said he will ask that a resolution to hold a public hearing on this subject be added to the Board agenda this evening. Adjournment The meeting adjourned at 4:48 p.m. 181 July 22, 1997 Adjourned Meeting Chair Mink reconvened the July 15, 1997 meeting at 4:06 p.m. Present: 13 Representatives (Representative Meskill arrived at 4:25 p.m. and Representative Schuler arrived at 5 p.m.); Excused - 2 Representatives Totman and Winch. Appointment Chair Mink appointed Dan Addy to the Electric Power Committee as a labor representative. Presentation on Energy Deregulation Ms. Mink introduced Representative Stuart Stein, Chairman of the of the Electric Power Committee. Mr. Stein said the purpose of this meeting is to hear a presentation on the report prepared by the consulting firm of Schillinger, Salerni and Boyd (SS+B). This is the firm that was hired by Tompkins and Tioga Counties to provide an overview of the current situation pertaining to electric power in New York State. Mr. Stein said the Electric Power Committee is a group of people appointed by this Board that includes members of this Board and the public (municipalities, labor, industry, universities, and business). He said several months ago this Board decided to retain a consultant to give direction and background information about what the County's role might be with the changing situation that is going on in the country dealing with the deregulation of electric power. Mr. Stein said Tioga and Tompkins County have formed a cooperative intermunicipal relationship and have retained the SS+B firm to prepare this overview. Mr. Stein introduced. Gordon Boyd and Lou Cohen of SS+B. Mr. Stein said the presentation was given earlier today to Tioga County. Mr. Boyd said a copy of the report entitled "Outlook for Energy Deregulation in Tompkins and Tioga Countys" dated July, 1997, has been prepared and distributed to the Board. He said a general question about what is happening with energy deregulation is being asked by several counties; however, no other counties are as far advanced as Tompkins and Tioga in establishing a role for themselves. Mr. Cohen gave a brief background on the history of how utilities got to this point. He said the energy industry is on the threshold of a major change; the way energy was produced and distributed in the past is going to change. He said in the early 1900's many people produced their own power and there was a lot of confusion. It became obvious to government that this was not an efficient system; that the supply and distribution of electricity should be A natural monopoly. Thus, governmental entities basically granted franchise rights, and allowed companies to supply power without competition. He said not only were the rights for transmitting and distributing power granted, so was the generation of power. Mr. Cohen said this system worked well until the 1970's when it became obvious the system was not working any longer because of the skyrocketing rates that were associated with construction of nuclear power plants and inefficiencies in the system. In 1978, as part of the National Energy Act, which was five separate pieces of energy legislation, the Public Utilities Regulatory Polices Act was passed. This was intended to encourage co -generation because there were a lot of industries that could much more efficiently generate their steam and electric needs than buying from electric companies. In addition, communities wanted to build energy projects and were advocates for reusable energy. These projects were all blocked by the system. In 1992, the federal government decided to open up the transmission system to everyone. At that time most states said they were not going to do this; however, when the State 193 July 22, 1997 of California decided to step forward with this, other states rapidly followed their lead to deregulate generation. He said as a result of these events, in the next year consumers will be able to make choices on how their energy will be supplied. Mr. Boyd said the reason they are here today is to consider what there is for the County to do about the situation and who is going to look out for the small business and residential consumer as all of these changes are taking place. He said the report lays out options that include municipalization and aggregation. Municipalization means the municipality taking over ownership of the utility's physical assets (wires, transformers, generation plant, etc.). He said the Village of Macena did this several years ago. Aggregation means putting a group of buyers together that have common interest and representing their interests in a competitive marketplace. He said independent businesses, residents, and local government have an interest in working together in an aggregate format to see if they can get a better discount from a utility. He said in a municipalization format the utility has to be paid for the assets, they can't just be taken over. Therefore, a decision has to be made on what value the assets have. Mr. Boyd said the municipality then has to assume responsibility for operation of the system. In order to do this, a municipality has to determine there is going to be savings brought to residents after acquisition of assets and taking on costs of operating responsibly. Mr. Boyd said he feels the County has a role to play as an aggregator because the distribution system of the utility is going to be left with existing utility companies. In order to do, this the County would need to designate an agency to take on this responsibility; identify and define a subscriber base that they would seek to serve, and then solicit the interest of people that are in the power -selling business. In Albany there are 60 companies that have now registered with the Public Service Commission who are wanting to sell power in New York State. Mr. Boyd said in analyzing the issues between going out and buying the assets or just representing the consumer, there are economic and legal regulatory considerations. The County also needs to look at what position it wants to be in. He said while counties are considering this, New York State is aggressively pursuing deregulation of the utilities. Utilities, including NYSEG, own assets that were authorized under the previous regulatory framework but are not likely to be able to compete in the open market. The value of these assets is characterized as "stranded costs". These are costs that the utilities will not be able to recover in a competitive marketplace. Mr. Cohen said the stranded -cost issue is probably the most important issue facing the utilities, regulators, and consumers today. Depending upon the individual utility, there is a different level of stranded costs. He stressed we are going from an era of heavy regulation and economically inefficient utility, to full competition. The Public Service Commission has to determine what amount of stranded costs exists, and then who will need to absorb these costs. This will take about five years to work out. Until these costs are gone, the full benefit of the competition will not be realized. Most of the utilities in New York State are in negotiations with Public Service Commission staff to come to a settlement around these issues. The Commission and the Governor's office have taken the position that legislation is not necessary in order to implement this new structure, so they are negotiating to try to reach settlements. He said by the end of this calendar year, many of these issues will be resolved and the transition period will begin. After that happens, there will be total competition. A look was taken at several other states in the Region to see where they stand in this process and what their rates are. An appendix included in the report shows comparative rates between different utility companies in various states. Mr. Boyd said New York State is very far along in this process and continuing to eagerly pursue efforts to bring costs down. 194 July 22, 1997 Mr. Boyd said the full report includes recommendations of things counties can do in the meantime. Counties should undertake an effort to more closely monitor the ongoing proceedings. Doing so will bring the issues into clearer focus, and potential impacts on the communities can be identified. Once settlements are reached and begin to be reviewed by the Administrative Law Judge and the Public Service Commission, the counties' views can be communicated through the PSC process. In addition, the counties can also inform the Governor and their state legislators of their interest in and views on the proposed settlements. Mr. Boyd recommended that Tompkins County examine the enabling legislation for the existing utility service agency and then initiate the steps towards procuring energy. At this time Board members asked questions of the consultants. Mr. Joseph said he would be interested in knowing whether it would make sense to expand the Groton Power and Light Company or Milliken Station, rather than creating a new one. Mr. Boyd said it would take a very detailed study to come up with this analysis. Mr. Stein stressed the consultants have not made any recommendations; they are explaining the possible pathways. He stated the Committee is working with Tioga County and there is interest in working together in aggregation. Ms. Blanchard said it is her understanding that it would be possible to pursue an aggregation plan while pursuing muncipalization.

Ms. Zahler reviewed background information that has led to some of the decisions made by the City and County. There was a short-term agreement for the first half of 1997 that the City and County would each spend an extra $48,285 to maintain all programs for six months. In addition, a Youth Development Transition Task Force was appointed to look at a long-term plan. She reviewed the committees work and recommendations. The following is a list of four priority needs identified by the Task Force: 1. Develop a new Youth Employment System to create a community option voucher; 2. Restructure the One to One program; 3. Maintain the model the Outings program has been using; and 4. Jointly fund with the City the Mechanical Allstars program Mr. Gallo commended the Task Force and Resource Allocation Board for their hard work. He said he is excited about the Youth Employment Program because it serves youth in all communities. Ms. Bossack spoke about the work of the Transition Task Force. One of the goals of the committee is to provide programs to youth County -wide. Phil Dankert spoke very positively of the proposed vouchers program. Ms. Zahler provided copies of a proposal outlining the three programs and funding recommended for County support. 198 August 5, 1997 Mrs. Livesay expressed her thanks to the staff members and all the volunteers who served on the committees for their hard work. Presentation of Resolution from the Health and Human Services Committee RESOLUTION NO. 160 - APPROPRIATING FUNDS TO MAINTAIN SELECTED YOUTH DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMS MOVED by Mrs. Livesay, seconded by Mr. Proto. Mr. Meskill said the resolution as proposed increases funding for new programs by 54,500 as well. It was MOVED by Mr. Meskill, seconded by Mr. Winch, to reduce the amount in the second resolved from $158,629 to $104,129 and $47,251 to $43,765 in the first resolved. The $104,129 is the amount needed to increase the target to maintain the current level in three youth development programs being recommended by the Task Force and $43,765 does not include funding needed for the Mechanical Allstars fall program. Mr. Todd feels the second resolved should be deleted and discussed during budget deliberations. Chair Mink outlined the issues raised: (1) separate the motion; (2) target increase for next year for the programs the Youth Bureau recommended and $47,251 funded through the end of the year; (3) approve funding at the $158,629 or 104,129 level; and (4) what happens if action is not taken now. Mr. Joseph said sometimes there need to be exceptions in making decisions outside the budget process. One reason is the programs function on a school -year calendar and the other reason is funding was only approved for the first six months of 1997. A decision needs to made whether the County is going to take over these programs and fund them through the end of the year and make them part of the ongoing budget. The Mechanical Allstars program in not included in the target because it is being proposed as one-year funding from in September through the summer of 1998. The funding for the second half of the school year is being requested through the budget process. The package being. proposed as a target increase includes the new Youth Employment program that reaches the rural communities. Mr. Meskill said there are similar programs in his community and feels this is an expansion. Mr. Winch said he will support the resolution, but would like to get the funding of the youth programs in relationship to the school districts' schedule coordinated in the County's budget process. It was MOVED by Mr. Meskill, seconded by Mr. Totman, and unanimously adopted by voice vote by members present, to separate the motion. A voice vote resulted as follows on the amendment to reduce the 5158,629 to 104,129 in the second resolved with the understanding the $54,500 will come back as an over target request during budget deliberations: Ayes - 8; Noes - 6 (Representatives Davis, Evans, Livesay, Proto, Schuler, and Stein); Excused - 1 (Representative Kiefer).

MOTION LOST. Ms. Blanchard said it is disturbing that a system has been created where there are such needy children that the County has to find jobs and adult relationships.

Ms. Blanchard said the headline was misleading, and James Hanson, Commissioner of Planning, has prepared a written clarification that will appear in an upcoming issue of the Journal. Ms. Blanchard said it would have been more appropriate for the article to have said the Environmental Management Council had concerns about the project. Mr. Hanson's response will address the fact that the County Board has not taken a position on this. Mr. Stein, District No. 3 Representative, said the problem he sees with the local newspaper is that one person writes a story and someone else is responsible for the headline.

RESOLUTION NO. 201 - ENDORSEMENT TO REDESIGNATE NEW YORK STATE ROUTE 17 AS INTERSTATE 86 AND SUPPORT THE IMPROVEMENT OF CONNECTING HIGHWAYS MOVED by Ms. Blanchard, seconded by Mrs. Schuler. Ms. Kiefer asked if this refers to the segment of Indian lands in western New York and was told no, that this focuses in the southern tier. Mr. Lane said this draws attention to the interstate system and noted Tompkins County is one of the counties that does not have a good entrance into that system. A voice vote resulted as follows: Ayes - 14, Noes - 0, Excused - 1 (Representative Davis). RESOLUTION ADOPTED.

SEQR ACTION: TYPE II -20 RESOLUTION NO. 209 - AUTHORIZATION FOR THE DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL SERVICES TO PARTICIPATE IN THE OPTIONAL FOOD ASSISTANCE PROGRAM, AND BUDGET TRANSFER MOVED by Mrs. Livesay, seconded by Mr. Proto. Mary Pat Dolan, Commissioner of Social Services stated as of August 26, there were over 20 counties in New York State planning to participate in this. Mr. Todd said he cannot support this. He questioned how the recipients of this benefit came to Tompkins County and how there could be 50 people who qualify for this. He said he feels individuals or 238 September 2, 1997 organizations who sponsor immigrants have a serious responsibility for those individuals. He gave examples of friends, relatives, and churches. Mr. Todd pointed out that the State of New York has made this an option for local governments and not a mandate. Ms. Dolan said she will look into Representative Todd's questions; however, she stated the people who comprise this group of legal aliens tend to fall into two categories: those who are refugees or those who have been granted asylum in this country. She said some are sponsored individually or by other groups such as churches. She said some of the individuals are those people who have lost benefits at the federal level. Mr. Joseph clarified what this resolution does for the television viewing audience. He stated the federal govemment has cut off food stamp benefits to all non -citizens. This resolution is a proposal to restore those benefits just to those individuals who are elderly, disabled, or are children. Mr. Winch said he has questions about this program, and said he would like to see the complete welfare reform package rather than a piece at a time. He is concerned that counties are falling into a trap by supporting small programs one at a time. Mr. Lane said he feels this resolution is unique because it asks counties to pay a portion of costs. He said we have welfare reform legislation that is being put into effect in New York State. Counties have been told the rules and regulations, and now the qualifications are being changed and the State is saying if counties want to keep certain things they have to pay for it, and through property taxes. He agrees with Mr. Winch's concerns that we are going to see these options come in small packages. He said he does not believe any member of this Board feels they do not want to help these people. He said there are people in Tompkins County who are having a very hard time paying their property taxes, and does not feel the County can assume the costs of all of these small programs. Mrs. Livesay referred to a recent news article about welfare discussion. She said she feels it will take time to get everyone organized and define the problems associated with welfare reform. She said there is a great deal of discussion that needs to take place; however, nothing could be done until New York State adopted a budget. Mrs. Livesay said a presentation will be made at an upcoming Board meeting on this subject. She agrees with comments that have been made in terms of not wanting to pick everything up piece by piece. She said these individuals are dependent on the food stamps, and does not know whether there is enough slack in the community for someone to provide them with the food they need. She said if this resolution does not pass, there is a possibility the County Board could be blamed for a disabled person, elderly person, or child starving to death. Mr. Proto said he seconded the motion for a couple of reasons. He said no one on this Board would ever take food out of the mouth of a child or an elderly or disabled person. He said he could support this resolution through the end of the year, and only by taking the funds from another Social Services account. This would not result in any increase in property taxes because money has already been appropriated. Mr. Proto said when George Pataki became Governor, he was asked to write an - article about what -changes might be expected and what his concern was at that time. He said his concerns remain the same today as they were then; change should not happen fast. This is why he feels this should be approved through the end of the year, and then reassessed by the Board. Mr. Totman agrees with comments made by Representative Todd. He said he was informed other counties voted on this in July and questioned why this Board has waited until now. He believes constituents should have an opportunity to give input to their representative. Mr. Todd said he does not feel everything that is no longer being paid for by the State and federal government should be picked up by local governments. Ms. Dolan said the State did not pass this option on to counties until August and is not clear how counties could have acted on this before the State budget was adopted on August 11. Mr. Meskill said he cannot support this because he feels counties are going to be nickel and dimed by the State. He believes Tompkins County should set a precedent of how we are going to deal with these types of things from the State. 239 September 2, 1997 Mr. Stein said he will vote in favor of this resolution. He stated he has listened to the discussion and has heard various members speak of costs that are being passed down from the State and federal government. Mr. Stein said this is part of the large, grand policy scheme. He said decisions can be made better at the local level than at the state and federal level. He said now that local government is being given an opportunity to make a decision, members want the decision to be placed back at the state and federal level. Mr. Stein said this Board has spent $150,000 for a consultant which includes $10,000 of local money to have a study done on bus fares; however, there are Board members who will not spend $8,000 to deal with the elderly, disabled and children who are immigrants who have come here legally. He said according to the best American principles, one does not change the rules in the middle of the game. Mr. Stein said this seems straight -forward to him. These are not people who are cheating the welfare system. He agrees this Board will be setting a precedent, and urged his fellow Board members to support this resolution. Mrs. Schuler said she supports the resolution and urged other Board members to support it as well. Ms. Kiefer reminded the Board that a lot of time was spent by members articulating its vision which says this Board wants to protect the County's residents and its vulnerable population. She urged passage of this resolution. Ms. Mink said she supports this resolution, and said she has a lot of respect for the way this resolution was put together. In her opinion, this resolution was crafted with great skill and discretion. Mr. Evans said he supports this resolution, and stated these people are the most vulnerable in the community and deserve this support. A roll call vote on the resolution resulted as follows: Ayes - 9 (Representatives Livesay, Mink, Schuler, Stein, Blanchard, Evans, Joseph, Kiefer, and Proto); Noes - 5 (Representatives Lane, Meskill, Todd, Totman, and Winch); Excused - 1 (Representative Davis). RESOLUTION ADOPTED. WHEREAS, Section 148-b of the New York State Welfare Reform Act of 1997 provides legislative authority for the creation of an optional state and locally funded Food Assistance Program for aliens no longer eligible for Food Assistance (Food Stamps) because of the provisions of the Personal Responsibility and Work Reconciliation Act of 1996, and WHEREAS, this program will begin September 1, 1997, and WHEREAS, the Commissioner of Social Services estimates that 50 persons will be served by this program, and WHEREAS, this program will serve only those individuals who are under 18, elderly and/or disabled, and WHEREAS, it is the recommendation of the Commissioner of Social Services that Tompkins County participate in this program, now therefore be it RESOLVED, on recommendation of the Health and Human Services Committee, That the Department of Social Services is authorized to participate in this program beginning September 1, 1997, RESOLVED, further, That the Director of Finance is hereby authorized to transfer up to $16,000 from Account No. 6140 Home Relief to Account No. 6136 Optional Food Assistance Program for the period September 1, 1997 through December 31, 1997. SEQR ACTION: TYPE 11-20 Report and Presentation of Resolution(s) from the Governmental Operations Committee Mr. Evans, Chairman, reported the Committee met briefly on August 26 and all of the items discussed at that meeting are reflected on the agenda. The Committee will begin budget reviews on September 18 and will carry over to the regular meeting to September 23. 240 September 2, 1997 RESOLUTION NO. 210 - AUTHORIZATION TO EXECUTE AGREEMENTS FOR GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEMS (GIS) PROJECTS MOVED by Mr. Evans, seconded by Ms. Kiefer. Mr. Proto asked for the Board to receive a presentation on the GIS program -- who the players are and what the County has invested in this. It was MOVED by Mr. Meskill and seconded by Mrs. Schuler, to remove the second RESOLVED: "RESOLVED, further, That the Information Management Committee may authorize the County administrator or his designee to execute future computer software and hardware agreements and authorize expenditures of up to $40,000 against the GIS Capital Fund to achieve the GIS long-range goals." Discussion on the amendment followed. Mr. Evans said he agrees the Committee has been remiss in keeping the Board up-to-date on this highly technical program. He said money is in the Capital fund and is to be used to benefit all County departments. He also feels the proposal in the second Resolved is reasonable and believes the Governmental Operations Committee and the full Board should be given an update on this program at least two times annually. Ms. Kiefer said at the Committee level there was a lot of discussion about what, if any dollar figure should be given authorizing future expenditures. She said she wanted a lower figure. Ms. Kiefer said she can support removing the dollar figure; however, it means the Board will get more resolutions when action is needed. Ms. Mink said by removing the second RESOLVED, the responsibility to make major judgments on details would come to the full Board, rather than only the designated committee.

The Open House is a celebration; a celebration to show the public the newly renovated Library complete with a 1,200 square foot addition, doubling the size of the Library. The cost of the project was approximately $210,000. The project started in May, 1997 by the Board of Trustees passing a resolution to confirm their desire to build, and to officially start fundraising. The Library is in the Newfield Grange Hall. For many years the Grange used the second floor and on the first floor was an IGA grocery store. The Library moved into the building using the first floor in 1970. Many changes were made to the building to create the proper atmosphere for a library. Chairman of the Library Board at that time was Mrs. Frances Winch. I hope many of you can come. This is a historic building in Newfield. The Library Board worked very hard to keep the original architecture and yet tastefully bring the building up to code and modern standards. This is a job very well done. Many people and organizations need to be thanked. There are organizations in Newfield that put on several different types of fund-raisers, including but not limited to breakfasts, dinners, fish-frys, raffles, bake sales, and garage sales. Monetary donations large and small coming from various sources were the adrenaline that kept the Library Board moving forward. The public came through with support. Funding also came from member items from Randy Kuhl and Marty Luster. There was a building grant from the Finger Lakes Library Foundation. Other private foundations provided grants. Local contractors were utilized, and the craftsmanship is of very high quality. A special thanks goes to Les Geohner of the Probation Department for providing for much valuable labor as a work project for the Reduced Incarceration for Community Services program. They were utilized on several occasions throughout the project. 245 September 16, 1997 Several professionals in Newfield donated their expertise throughout the project. Such areas of expertise were heavy equipment operation, auditing services, and legal services. On a project of this size that was greatly appreciated by all. On a personal note, I wish to thank and congratulate two people on this project. For several years Mary Maki was the Secretary of the Board. She wrote grant applications, thank you letters, and spent a tremendous amount of time ferreting out organizations and keeping track of the records for the project -- a tremendous undertaking -- thank you Mary. Miss Mary Humpton has been the Chairman of the Library Board for several years. She is the driving force behind this project. When others questioned whether or not the project could happen she kept the group on course, and on target. Miss Humpton has taken on this project spending untold hours keeping it going. She is the reason that many community members have supported this project. On behalf of the whole community, I wish to thank Miss Humpton for her dedication, enthusiasm and very hard work. I hope that many of you will come to the celebration. Thank you". Ms. Davis, District No. 3 Representative, extended happy birthday wishes to her son, Steven, on his 13th birthday.

Report from the Public Works Committee Mr. Todd, Chairman, reported the Committee met on September 4 and had a short agenda. He said at that meeting the Committee received an update on the Comfort Road Bridge. Mr. Todd brought the Board up-to-date on the Comfort Road Bridge situation, and read the following statement: "You may have seen some press coverage regarding construction of the bridge at Comfort Road. 1 want to briefly explain what happened there last week. Apparently, the contractor was working in the County right-of-way when the sides of the bridge unexpectedly collapsed. As some debris landed in the creek, the contractor sent an excavation machine down to the creek to move the material out of the water so as to prevent any interference with the water flow. The County was not aware at the time that the bridge had collapsed nor that it became necessary to remove debris from the stream. Unfortunately, while the contractor was attempting to remove debris from the stream an individual tried to interfere with the work by lying across the machinery. The Deputy Sheriff convinced the individual to move and the contractor finished clearing the debris from the stream. Unfortunately, the contractor had to go over a very small stretch of property without first getting the owners permission. But it was only in response to the emergency situation which required the clearing of the stream. I understand that the small area over which the contractor drove its machine is a mossy area which should return to its original state in a short period of time. He did not disturb unique ruins that we are aware of. The County Commissioner of the Public Works spoke to the contractor and we understand that the contractor does not intend to re-enter the property. It intends to remove all the debris from the area while remaining on the County right-of-way. The debris that had fallen into the water and was moved to the side will be removed from the area by a crane which will be positioned on the County right -of way. In summary, I want to emphasize that the actions by the contractor last week were necessitated by the unexpected collapse of the bridge. At the time the County was not aware of the collapse nor the actions taken by the contractor to clean the stream. Most importantly, the contractor informs us that it does not intend to bring any machinery or equipment down near the water, but that it intends to remove any debris from above with a crane". 247 September 16, 1997 Ms. Kiefer noted the Ithaca Journal quoted John Lampman, a County Engineer, as saying the collapse of the bridge into the stream was not unexpected, and she asked if that was a correct statement; Mr. Todd said he did not know.

This group has been meeting since August to try to more effectively coordinate the efforts of existing arts and cultural groups and to try to strengthen them and make them be a centerpiece for whatever tourism development and promotion plan the County has. Appointments) Chair Mink was given the unanimous consent of members present to make the following appointment(s): Office for the Aging Advisory Board Leroy Wollney - term expires December 31, 1998 Human Rights Commission Amy Kuo - term expires December 31, 1998 Thomas Baskin -Bey - term expires December 31, 1999 Report from the County Administrator Mr. Heyman said he has distributed copies of a report from NYSAC (New York State Association of Counties) on their best estimate on what the impact would be if the sales tax on clothing was rescinded in 1999. He said the impact is equal to a net loss of over $600,000, or 3.5 percent in property tax. This includes the assumption that the removal of the tax would spur some additional economic activity. Ms. Mink said she received from Steven Whicher, Assessment Director, a copy of a survey on property tax rates throughout New York State. The survey shows Tompkins County being in the bottom one-third of property tax rates in the State. Mr. Heyman said many nearby counties are amazingly higher than Tompkins, and one of the main driving forces in having one of the lowest taxes is because our Department of Social Services costs are among the lowest in the State. Mr. Heyman said he would see that Board members receive a copy of this survey. Report by the County Attorney Mr. Theisen reported the claimants in the sick building case have filed an appeal. Report by the Finance Director Mr. Squires brought to the Board's attention that the State of New York has not approved funding for Tompkins Cortland Community College for the coming year because tuition has not been approved by the SUNY Board of Trustees. He said this has resulted in the College receiving no payments from the State, and has caused a problem with cash flow. Mr. Squires stated he is trying to find out from the State how to loan the College money for operating purposes, and said Cortland County will also be asked to help. Mr. Squires reported the Finance Department will soon be sending out certified notices to property owners who are subject to foreclosure in January.

Present: 15 Representatives. Presentation of Proclamation(s) Chair Mink presented a proclamation to Andy Gladstone of the Breast Cancer Alliance, declaring the week of October 20-26, 1997 to be Breast Cancer Awareness Week in Tompkins County. Ms. Gladstone thanked the Board and said an increasing number of people are using the services of the Ithaca Breast Cancer Alliance since the Agency's move to the Women's Community Building. She announced a Walkathon will be held on Saturday, October 25 at 1 p.m. and invited Board members to attend. Privilege of the Floor by the Public Peter Bottorff, member of P.O.W.E.R. (People Opposed to Wasteful Elected Representatives), spoke in support of a reduction in County taxes, as proposed by Representative Todd, Mr. Bottorff said a reduction in the tax rate would be good for the economy of the community. He feels there has been a large amount of excuses why there shouldn't be a tax reduction, and if the County is going to spend the money, the public should be told how the money is going to be spent. Mr. Bottorff spoke about a letter in the Ithaca Journal by Representative Joseph which stated a ten percent decrease in taxes this year will cause an 11 percent increase next year. He asked that Board members look for ways to run County government in a more efficient manner so that there can be a tax reduction that the full Board would support. Privilege of the Floor by Board Members Mr. Todd, District No. 6 Representative, spoke about the 1998 budget and said there have been four budget sessions where department, County Administrator, and program committee requests have been reviewed. He said the Budget and Personnel Committee has added thousands and thousands of dollars to what the County Administrator has recommended. However, at the last Budget and Personnel Committee the Committee reduced the County Administrator's recommendation on the highway budget by about $265,000. This amount is equal to five miles of road paving next summer. Mr. Todd distributed the following document and reviewed the numbers. He said the top line represents actual figures from 1994-1997. He called attention to the increase in the average daily general fund balance over three years, and pointed out the interest went from a quarter of a million dollars three years ago to one million dollars. He feels the County is "awash in cash". The comments below reflect Mr. Todd's opinion. 94 95 96 97 YTD 97 Projected General Fund Interest $248,000 $532,000 $766,000 $721,000 $1,000,000 Average Daily General Fund Balance Interest at 5.5% $4,509,000 $9,672,700 $13,927,000 $18,181,818 269 October 21, 1997 Why has the General Fund Increased? 1. Over budgeted expenses unspent? 2. Under estimated budgeted revenues? • Why not return some of this to Property taxpayers? • County Administrator recommended budget with $2,000,000 of the surplus would easily permit a ten percent property tax reduction. • Setting aside money for debt stabilization only increases the General Fund Balance. • All this depends on spending restraint by the Tompkins County Board. • Large surpluses encourage increased spending. • A tax cut in the hands of taxpayers would boost the Tompkins County economy. Chair Mink asked Mr. Heyman, County Administrator, to respond to the comments made by Representative Todd. Mr. Heyman said Mr. Todd's figures appear to be correct and the way he is Iooking at the average daily balance invested also appears to be correct. He said the County's cash position is very good; but is different from our fund balance. ' He said there are millions of dollars that exist as cash but are not available for the Board to appropriate for any purpose, including giving it back to taxpayers. He noted the Budget Committee is currently working with a surplus of approximately $4 million. Mr. Todd said the point he is making is that in three years, the County's accumulated surpluses have gone from $4.5 million to $18 million. Mr. Heyman agreed that the County's financial position has improved significantly since 1994, when the fund balance was in/near a negative state and the Director of Finance had to get Board permission to borrow to meet payroll. Mr. Meskill, District No. 15 Representative, responded to comments that have been made this evening by Mr. Bottorff. He said those comments are related to the proposal by Representative Todd for a ten percent tax cut. Mr. Meskill said he is a member of the Budget and Personnel Committee, and he too, would like to see a ten percent property tax cut. However, he said he has participated in budget deliberations over the last couple of weeks and has voted for several hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of permanent tax increase spending. He noted persons putting forth the ten percent property tax reduction have also supported some of those funding increases as well. Mr. Stein, District No. 3 Representative, stated the Board is in a political debate and thinks it is foolish to claim statements are not being made because this is an election season. He said there is nothing wrong with this and is part of the political process. As a Democrat, Mr. Stein said he would like to see the tax rate reduced and would like to see it reduced by as much as ten percent, but we are not at a point of concluding that. There is an orderly budget review process to follow, and we are in the midst of that. However, he has taken the position that it should be done in an orderly process and rational decisions should be made about what to do with those things we have made decisions about. Mr. Joseph, District No. 12 Representative, said politics is the process of debating public issues and determining how we are going to react and how we are going to make public decisions. He said he does not feel there is anything wrong with engaging in politics, as long as it is done honestly. Mr. Joseph said he feels Representative Todd's proposal is not backed up by his votes and questioned why someone who demands a tax cut, votes in favor of increased spending in the Highway Division. 270 October 21, 1997 Ms. Davis, District No. 2 Representative, apologized to her constituents because she advised them not to come to this meeting because she had told them it was not the appropriate time to discuss budget matters. Mr. Lane, District No. 14 Representative, said when he heard the ten percent tax cut was proposed by Representative Todd, he was intrigued. He wrote Mr. Todd a letter asking how this tax reduction would be achieved, and to date, Mr. Lane said he has not received a response to his question. Mr. Lane invited the Board to attend a tour of the Virgil Creek Flood Control/Watershed Project (Donald H. Crispell Project) in Dryden on Saturday at 10 a.m. He said he will place a copy of the press release in Board members boxes tomorrow. Mrs. Livesay, District No. 11 Representative, said in her 24 years on the Board, there has not been blatant campaign statements at Board meetings, and it would be unfortunate and would set a bad precedent if political campaigns were brought to the floor of this Board. Addition of Resolution(s) to the Agenda On motion and duly seconded and unanimously adopted by voice vote the following resolution(s) were added to the agenda: A Resolution of the County Board of Representatives of the County of Tompkins, New York, Authorizing a Temporary Advance of Not Exceeding $500,000 Surplus Funds Said County to the Tompkins Cortland Community College Fund Pursuant to Section 9-A of the General Municipal Law Increase in Hours of Position - Information Systems Coordinator, Planning Department Withdrawal of Resolution(s) from the Agenda Bostwick Road Salt Storage Facility Shared Use Award of Bid - Building C Improvement Capital Project Authorizing an Amendment Extending Contract Between the Department of Social Services and Michael Marks for Consulting Services Chair's Report and Appointment(s) Chair Mink reported there would be an executive session at the end of the meeting to discuss negotiations and real estate.

The object of the Partnership is to provide Internet services to the partners at the lowest possible price. He said thus far, the County's costs have been reduced by $22,000 and with a fifteen -fold increase in capacity.

Report and Presentation of Resolution(s) from the Planninu Development and Education Committee Ms. Blanchard, Chair, reported the Committee met on October 16 and heard a report from the Chair of the Environmental Management Council. The Committee also heard 273 October 21, 1997 presentations from people in the community that are providing specialized housing with some sort of support services for the elderly. RESOLUTION NO. 238 - AUTHORIZATION TO ACCEPT HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT (HUD) CANAL CORRIDOR INITIATIVE GRANT FOR PORTLAND POINT PROJECT AND APPLY FOR SECTION 108 LOAN ASSISTANCE THROUGH THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT MOVED by Ms. Blanchard, seconded by Mr. Lane. It was MOVED by Mr. Stein, seconded by Mrs. Schuler, to add the following wording as final RESOLVED: "RESOLVED, further, That as yet no environmental review has taken place on this multi -part project so that acceptance of this grant and application for loan funds should not be construed to mean the County has waived such review and given final approval of this project." Mr. Stein said that he does not feel this amendment is necessary because the project cannot move forward without environmental reviews. He said it is not clear at this point who the lead agency is, nevertheless, no project, loan, or grant, can be made without an environmental review. Mrs. Schuler said the environmental SEQR review is a very important process and planning tool. She said history will show that this should not come in the end of a process. She supports the proposed amendment and feels it will provide a reminder, early on, that this needs to be done. Mr. Proto spoke in support of the amendment and said he sees the amendment providing emphasis and clarity. He referred to the recent situation on the Comfort Road bridge in Danby, and said there was concern about the environmental review process. He believes this amendment represents caution. Ms. Blanchard said she knew this amendment was going to be advanced. She spoke in opposition to the amendment and said she considers it hostile. She reminded the Board that the County co-sponsored this project and bought into the canal corridor project. She said the County Planning Department is administering and overseeing it in every step of the way. A local family has put money and energy on the line and will be developing a project that the County wants to have happen in tourism and lake access. Ms. Blanchard said before this project is awarded final approval, numerous permits will be required and it must go through not only SEQR at the local level but also has to go through the SEQR review that is required by the National Environmental Protection Act (NEPA). Ms. Kiefer stated that at the meeting of the Planning, Development and Education Committee, she asked and it was agreed that language of this sort be included in the resolution coming to the Committee. It appeared on the agenda without any reference to this and she felt it was necessary to add it. She said the amendment is in response to several things. She said there are communities and citizens in the community who think the County does not include and look at environmental effects early enough when making decisions. She said she feels it is prudent to have this clarifying language in the resolution. A roll call vote resulted as follows on the amendment: Ayes - 8 (Repre"sentatives Davis, Joseph, Kiefer, Livesay, Mink, Proto, Schuler, and Stein); Noes - 7 (Representatives Blanchard, Evans, Lane, Meskill, Todd, Totman, and Winch).

Mrs. Schuler noted that State -ready prisoners are once again not moving out within the ten-day limit. Report and Presentation of Resolution(s) from the Public Works Committee Mr. Todd, Chairman, reported the Committee met on October 16 and did not complete its business and that is why the resolution was withdrawn. The Committee heard a report from John Lampman, of the Public Works Division, on Comfort Road bridge abutments. He said the bridge is almost complete and expects the cross beam to be put in next week. Mr. Todd said he received a report from Robert Nicholas, Airport Manager, and said the number of emplanements for June through September are up by ten percent. The next meeting will be November 6 at 8:30 a.m. in the Board Room. Mr. Lane noted the Public Works Committee is recommending a reduction in the Solid Waste Annual Fee for 1998 to $54.

SEQR ACTION: TYPE II -20 Report from the Electric Power Committee Mr. Stein, Chairman, reported at previous meetings he had discussed the pending negotiations between Public Service Commission staff and NYSEG. He said approximately ten days ago the agreement was presented. He said the County's consultant, Salerni and Boyd, is reviewing the agreement, and it appears Tompkins County's request was not responded to and has not been included in early start up. Mr. Stein said it appears as if the proposed rate structure has not changed very much, if at all. He stated one of the County's concerns was that all of the 278 October 21, 1997 rate payers, including residents, farmers, and small business people, would be given some recognition in their need to have their electric rates lowered. It appears NYSEG is foregoing its previously approved rate increase and there is a possibility in year number five there may be a five percent reduction. Mr. Stein said the large users, of which there are relatively few in this county, and many of whom already get special privileges and rates, will continue to get a lowering of rates. He said the Committee will now concentrate on contacting the Public Service Commission, who will be making its own decision on this agreement. Report from the Health Benefits Reform Committee Mrs. Livesay, Chair, reported the Committee has not met since the last meeting. She said she has received an update from Jackie Yoder, Health Benefits Manager, on the issues that the Committee has been working on since the last meting, and has provided Chair Mink with a copy of that.

Report from the Electric Power Committee 288 November 5, 1997 Mr. Stein, Chairman, reminded the Board a memo was sent to them on Monday, bringing them up- to-date on actions that have taken place in the last two weeks. He said the reason he sent the memo is because he wanted to notify members that the Committee took action in the name of the Board without having a formal process for doing that. He said he is concerned that the Board know he did this with the good reasons and expectations that what was done was supportable. He said he received notification that official testimony had to be submitted to the Administrative Law Judge about the proposed agreement between NYSEG and the Public Service Commission and this had to be done by November 3, which was prior to our Board meeting. Mr. Stein said what was in the County's statement to the Administrative Law Judge in opposition to the proposed agreement was basically what he has been talking about in the past.

Mr. Stein said he has asked NYSEG to provide him a list of who falls into that class, and his request was denied. He feels it would be difficult to respond in a public hearing to a public document when a portion of the information is privileged.

Public Hearing Girard Oberrender, Jr., Ithaca, said the Tompkins County Newsletter states spending is set at $90.5 million in Tompkins County with a total estimated population of 96,659. This means that $940 is being spent for each person in the County and when the Ithaca College and Cornell students are taken away from this number, it increases to $1,250 per person. Mr. Oberrender said the County's spending is $2,630 per household whose median income is $31,412. This means eight percent of every household income is equivalent to County expenditures per household. He said in addition to County taxes, these families also pay federal, state, town, city, village, sales, use, inheritance, and energy taxes. They also pay for car, boat, driver, garbage, real estate, hunting, fishing, parking, and business licenses and fees. Mr. Oberrender said there has to be spending and tax relief and feels a ten percent reduction in the property tax rate is appropriate. Sara Pines, Representative of P.O.W.E.R. (People Opposed to Wasteful Elected Representatives), circulated a position paper to the Board. She stated education and human services appear to be the cornerstone of the economy of Tompkins County. Ms. Pines said P.O.W.E.R. will focus on redundancy, consolidation, and competition, and will ask the public to help with suggestions for greater efficiency directed toward eliminating wasteful spending while increasing efficiency and quality of services. She spoke of the Department of Social Services, and said according to the proposed 1998 appropriations for Tompkins County, DSS receives 23 percent of the budget; the 1997 local share only is $11,678,946. Ms. Pines said cases have decreased in the Department of Social Services by 30 percent; however, there has not been a proportionate decrease in staff, money, or space. She also spoke of foster care and said there needs to be a disincentive to keep children in foster care and there needs to be a financial incentive for family preservation. Judy Tynyk, Weights and Measures Director, spoke concerning the proposed reduction of hours of the Inspector position in that office. Ms. Tynyk said the position is a revenue - generating position whose responsibility is to protect the consumer in the marketplace. She said the reduction of 250 hours per year is equivalent to all the commercial devices in the Villages of Lansing, Dryden, and one-third of the devices in Trumansburg. This cut will also result in the loss of an estimated $2,750 in revenue for the Department. Marie Boehme, Danby resident and volunteer at the Tompkins County Public Library and many other human service agencies, congratulated the Board on providing 72 percent of the Library's budget and said she feels the County is getting a good return on its money by supporting the Library. Milt Goldstein, President of the Tompkins County Public Library Board of Trustees, spoke of the Library's request for funding to maintain services, and said that request was substantially reduced by the Budget and Personnel Committee. Mr. Goldstein said the Library Board of Trustees reviewed the budget estimates recently and were able to reduce the estimate of 293 November 12, 1997 what they feel it would take to maintain the current level of service. However, there still is a gap between what was approved and what is needed. He said the Library is specifically requesting an additional $28,450 that, when added to the increase of $55,000 that was approved, would be sufficient to cover increases in salaries, benefits, and health insurance. An additional request the Library is seeking is for one-time funding in the amount of $18,500 in order for the Library to maintain a position of micro -computer specialist. Margaret Unsworth, Ithaca resident, said she hopes the Board will explain the decrease in the Social Services budget from 1994 to the present. She said she does not feel this is the time to reduce taxes. She feels those who find the taxes so oppressive are going to enjoy a significant reduction in the coming year through the STAR program, and said we still don't know how much state or federal aid the County will receive. She also said along with welfare reform comes a growing shortage in childcare. Paul Steiger, City of Ithaca, complimented the Budget and Personnel Committee for their hard work towards controlling costs for 1998. He said he does not support putting money aside for future debt payments. He said the money has come from a precipitous drop in the Social Services caseloads and a healthy economy. He said in both cases this is taxpayer money, and feels they deserve to have their money back if it was not used. Andy Gladstone, Ithaca Breast Cancer Alliance, thanked the Board for their understanding and encouragement that has been shown towards the Alliance since the beginning. She also praised the Human Services Coalition for all of their help. Jill Brantley, Ithaca, spoke in support of the Tompkins County Public Library and said the Library is often taken for granted. She said public libraries are being threatened across the nation and said the library represents the values of an informed citizenry. Ms. Brantley stated the Public Library is the single most used service in Tompkins County and feels the budget requests submitted by the Library should be honored. Allen Lambert, Ithaca, spoke regarding the distribution of income and the surplus. He said that at least 25 percent of the working population in Tompkins County falls in the income range between poverty and sufficiency, and these are the people who struggle with the total tax burden. Mr. Lambert asked that the County Board return most of the surplus to the taxpayers. He stated he does not feel the County should maintain an amount larger than one to two percent in its fund balance. Judith VanAllen, Ithaca, spoke in support of increasing salaries that are paid to workers of not-for-profit agencies that are funded by Tompkins County. She said a large percentage of private not-for-profit agencies are paid very low salaries. Ms. VanAllen said many human - service agencies employ females who are single mothers who need to be paid enough so that they are not living on poverty wages. She asked that Board members take a look at the salaries of these workers. Ron Hallard, Senior Citizens Council President, asked that the Board support the Council's $1,200 request to assist with additional expenses related to the new facility. Bill Gibson, Town of Ithaca resident and Justice For All Member, commended the Board for their work in trying to achieve the right balance between the need to keep taxes as low as possible and maintaining the quality of services that are provided through the County's budget. He said he thinks it is possible to provide services to meet the County's needs, while paying people a livable wage. Mr. Gibson said if Tompkins County wants quality services, it has to pay for them. 294 November 12, 1997 Ginger Cohen, Ithaca resident and member of Friends of the Library, spoke in support of the Tompkins County Public Library. She asked that the Board reconsider the Library's funding request. Ms. Cohen said the Friends of the Library have given the Tompkins County Public Library as much as they can, and now needs the County to give more. Constance Cook, Ithaca resident, spoke in support of the Tompkins County Public Library, and asked that funding requests submitted by the Library be reconsidered. Linda Daybell, Chamber of Commerce President, spoke in support of the Tompkins County Public Library. Ms. Daybell said the Library is a facility that is used by people of all ages, income levels, and backgrounds. She said while Tompkins County is moving forward and putting a lot of resources into economic development, a viable, vital public library is one of the infrastructure things that we can point to with pride as we are looking to recruit new businesses and people to the community. She asked that funding requests by the Library be reconsidered. Lee Miller, volunteer at the Tompkins County Public Library, said he has conducted intemet training at the Library twice a week for the last year. He said many different people use the services of the Library. He explained the importance of the Micro -computer Specialist position, and asked that the Board support the funding request for this position, as well as the other requests submitted by the Library. Robert Lowe, Town of Ithaca, spoke in support of paying a decent wage to all individuals who work directly or indirectly for the County. Merritt Queen, Ithaca resident and Justice For All Member, said there seems to be a national obsession for reducing taxes towards the vanishing point. He said taxes represent human values, and urged the Board to respect the labor of those who serve the County at appropriate, livable wages. Mr. Queen said we need adequate taxes to support needs to provide for the present and the future, and feels slashing taxes will not produce that result. Don Lifton, Ithaca resident and Justice For All Member, said he has listened to the comments made this evening regarding the budget. The Board represents the County and where it feels the County should be going in the best sense of representative democracy. He stated the County has a mission statement that reflects the community's values. Mr. Lifton said the Board's mission statement contains a commitment to a County -wide citizenry of a livable wage. He asked that the Board continue to have a budget within the context of the mission statement that advances its mission. He said it is time for the County to do what it can to advance a County- wide condition of all citizens working for a livable wage. Mr. Lifton said at least two of the County's human services agencies are not paying livable wages, and asked that the Board amend the budget to ensure those agencies are empowered to pay a livable wage. He supports the five percent target in the fund balance and said anything lower would be imprudent. Mr. Lifton asked that consideration be given to the reduction of debt and also allocating funds to a program of a livable wage. Recess No other member of the public wished to speak.

Budgeting Unit The fundamental unit of County Board decision-making with respect to the budget and designated programs. It is made up of one or more programs. Only budgeting units receive appropriations, have fiscal targets, or are the recipients of over target requests. All departments are made up of one or more budgeting units. Capital Program A planning guide to major, non-recurring construction, equipment purchase, and land purchase projects for the followingfive years. No non-recurring major project may be undertaken unless It is authorized,in the Capital Program, but inclusion in the Program, by itself, does not authorize a project.

County Sponsorship That portion of the total revenue of a budgeting unit that is made up of General Revenues (q.v.). In the past this has been called "County Cost" and "Local Share". Dedicated Revenue Funds earmarked for a specific budgeting unit. Dedicated revenues include departmental fees, State, Federal , intra - fund and interfund revenues, grants, repayments, and proceeds of sale of supplies, equipment. property, or services.

An example is that a department may spend one extra dollar for a program and it automatically -- provided that it meets all regulations — receives an added two dollars in revenue. In some cases fiscal leverage works in reverse; that is, reduction in general revenues provided to a program may result in a loss of other funding.

See Mandate below. Fund A set of accounts within the County budget so separate and distinct from the remainder of the budget that the State Comptroller has determined that they must be segregated into what amounts to their own "budget" or "sub -budget". Municipalities are required to separate their budgets into various funds. Each of these funds operates like an independent budget and retains its . own year-end balance. The funds in the Tompkins County budget are listed below. The funds make payments to each other known as "interfund transfers.' Budgetary Funds A — GENERAL Fund; most programs of County government; all those programs not listed below B — AIRPORT Fund; all Airport programs CO — JOB TRAINING Fund; the program funded by the Federal Job Training Partnership Act CL — SOLID WASTE Fund; all solid waste and recycling programs CS — INSURANCE RESERVE Fund; funds set aside to pay for those losses that Tompkins County has chosen to self -insure, including • most negligence claims, auto claims, and Schedule 20- 2 L661 `81 lagtu0n0N the costs of defending these D -- ROAD Fund; all programs of the Highway Division of the Public Works Department DM -- MACHINERY Fund; equipment expenses for the Road Fund H -- CONSTRUCTION Funds; the Director of Finance establishes a separate Fund for each major capital project L -- LIBRARY Fund; the programs of the Tompkins County Public Library S -- WORKERS' COMPENSATION Fund; a self-insurance reserve fund for all workers' compensation expenses including payments for medical expenses, lost wages, and costs of defending claims ✓ -- DEBT SERVICE Fund; Debt repayments This definition of the word "funds" is not to be confused with the use of the word as a synonym for "monies". Fund Balance or Unrestricted Fund Balance Any monies in the possession of Tompkins County that have not been appropriated or reserved for any purpose. The following are not part of any fund balance: retirement reserves; construction funds; health premium reserves, workers' compensation reserves; self-insurance reserves. Board fiscal policy authorizes the re- appropriation of accumulated unspent Glossary money from the previous year by a department. Money avallabte and eligible to be re-appropriatedis included by the Director of Finance In the year-end fund balances. But as the County Board establishes fund balance targets it disregards these funds, i.e., it calculates fund balance targets as if money available for re -appropriation did not exist.

A Class A Mandate must meet the definition above, must permit County government very little control over the manner in which the service is provided, and must be made up entirely of the costs of the mandated service; employee salaries and fringe benefit costs may not be included in a Class A Mandate. Spending for ClassA mandates appears as a line in the budget of a budgeting unit. A budgeting unit that is a Class B Mandate must meet the definition in the first paragraph above and must be made• up entirely of the costs of the mandated service. It is differentiated from a Class A Mandate in that the County has some substantial control over the manner in which the service is provided. Salaries and benefits may be included.

Objectives should be addressed in terms such as: to increase an activity, to maintain a service level, to reduce the incidence of something, and/or to eliminate a problem. They should include numbers and percentages that establish what those phrases mean. Objectives can refer to several types of events: a result when a change in occurrence can be determined (crime rate reduction); an output when the quantity measured accurately reflects an intended effect (miles of road resurfacing); a system product when recipient satisfaction with the service provided is critical (average response time); or as a cost when a change in cost is important (reduction in personnel). Over Target Request A request for funding above the target of a Glossary program or programs.

The service provided is a distinct, formally structured part of the department's operation with regularly assigned, appropriately trained staff and/or an organized set of policies and procedures. The service provided lends itself to measurement of Input and of outcomes. The budgeted funds for programs frequently are based only on estimates of department heads and agency directors.

She brought the Board together and through her efforts, secured crucial public dollars that financed the creation of a new arts council. The Community Arts Partnership is here today, eight years later working on behalf of the arts community for the benefit of the residents and visitors of Tompkins County. CAP is a strong and 593 December 16, 1997 vigorous agency in large part because Beverly helped build the strong foundation which CAP provides its programs and services. On behalf of the arts community which it serves and the larger community which it benefits, the Community Arts Partnership is grateful to Beverly. Please accept our thanks and gratitude. We know you're not going away and we know where we'll find you -- in our theaters, our concert halls, and our galleries." Mr. Stein, District No. 3 Representative, said last evening a celebration was held in honor of Beverly Livesay and of the 20th Anniversary of the establishment of the Youth Bureau. He said Beverly Livesay played a very important part in starting the Youth Bureau. Mr. Stein said he has learned a great deal from Beverly and one of the things he found that has always been very helpful in working with her is that she had a history of what has happened on the Board. Mr. Stein said he speaks for the entire Board when he says her time and contributions are very much appreciated by the Board and the people of Tompkins County. Mr. Lane, District No. 14 Representative, spoke of Beverly Livesay and said for a number of years while he was in village government, she worked very hard on the transit issues. He said there would not be rural transit today in Tompkins County without Beverly Livesay. Mr. Lane thanked her for always taking time to sit down with new members and share her time and institutional memory. Mrs. Livesay, District No. 11 Representative, thanked all the members of the Board for the good working relationships and the way everyone has worked together. She said through agreements and disagreements, the Board has always been committed to the betterment of Tompkins County. Mr. Proto, District No. 7 Representative, also thanked Mrs. Livesay. He said at a time when women were finding it very difficult to be represented anywhere, Beverly came on the Board. Mr. Proto said everyone who has shared the experience of working with her will miss having her on the Board.

Report by the County Administrator Mr. Heyman reported the State decided there will be one week of sales tax relief offered in New York State. He said counties have received very last minute information on this and little time to take action; that is why a resolution pertaining to this has been added to the agenda. Mr. Heyman gave an update on the Worker's Compensation - indoor air cases. He said the County found out within the last week that our insurance carrier will release money back to the County. This money will be put back into the Worker's Compensation fund. Report by the County Attorney Jonathan Wood, Assistant County Attorney, had no report. Report by the Finance Director Mr. Squires, reported the 1998 tax bills are being produced at this time and will be mailed soon. He said at this time there are 286 parcels that are included in the foreclosure process. The final day to pay on those properties is January 8. Mr. Squires will provide all representatives with a list of these parcels and owners within their districts. 595 RESOLUTION NO. 290 December 16, 1997 AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION OF AN AGREEMENT TO FORM A JOINT VENTURE WITH THE CITY OF ITHACA AND CORNELL UNIVERSITY TO PROVIDE MASS TRANSPORTATION SERVICES MOVED by Mr. Todd, seconded by Ms. Blanchard. Ms. Blanchard said early in November a briefing paper was distributed on the proposed agreement and an opportunity was given to attend a presentation about the principles that are included in it. She said in January of 1992, the seven -member Committee that was charged with developing an operations plan for the Ithaca -Tompkins Transit Center convened its first meeting. On December 11, the 53rd and final meeting of the Committee was held. It is expected that a transition to a new Board of Directors will take place the fourth week in January. Over the six-week period the Committee has worked hard with the help of employees, contract service providers, and State legislators, to get to the final steps in creating a new and totally unique organization to provide public transportation services. She said she does not believe there is anything at the state or national level that is like the TCAT agreement. The proposal describes a joint venture, a specialized public-private partnership between the City, County, and Cornell University, that will achieve the goal of a public -transit system that is safe, reliable, convenient, cost-effective, and operated by a skilled team, dedicated to customer service and committed to excellence. It will allow the partners to share equipment and personnel, pool their financial resources, integrate routes and schedules, release scarce resources to meet new needs, and establish a uniform fare structure. It proposes a governing board that has an equal tri -party voting membership of three representatives from each of the partners chosen by any method that the partners determine to be in their best interest. In addition, it proposes two non-voting employee representatives to the Board; one representing the interests of unionized workers, and one representing the interests of those workers who are not part of a union. It also proposes two non-voting representatives of the system's customer base. Gadabout as a tenant in the building and provider of special ADA services, will also be asked to participate as a non-voting member. The other details, including the financial contributions and liability are spelled out in the agreement. Ms. Blanchard thanked all of the individuals who worked on the agreement for their diligence and patience. She said it is a sound plan for the future and asked that the Board support it in the form which it is presented. Mr. Joseph said he circulated a memo to the Board stating he intended to propose an amendment to the agreement. After considerable discussion with Board members and people representing labor organizations, he said he will move to amend the agreement; however, in a different form than he originally intended. It was MOVED by Mr. Joseph, seconded by Ms. Davis, to insert on page three of the agreement, following the wording "three persons representing and appointed by the City" to add one of whom shall represent the interest of labor. It was proposed that the same wording be added following the wording "three persons representing and appointed by the County. Ms. Kiefer said she is disappointed that Mr. Joseph is not proposing the amendment he originally intended to propose. She feels the proposed agreement is very well crafted in protecting the interests of the partners. She feels it is very important that each of the partners: the County, the City and Cornell, have three members representing their interests, and in order for significant budgetary changes to be made, two of each of those three must vote in favor of those changes. That kind of fiscal protection is crucial in her mind and she thinks it is a very good characteristic of this agreement. She said by 596 December 16, 1997 designating one of those three from two of the partners to have interests that may not be necessarily the same as the partners, is risky. Ms. Kiefer said usually the interests of employees and labor would coincide with the interests of the partners, but one cannot always expect this to be the case. She said she is unwilling to vote for an amendment that dilutes the partner's votes. She said she would have gladly supported something that added to the structure to the Board as long as the fiscal protection that is already in the agreement remains. She said she was told by various people that such an arrangement would be illegal. Ms. Kiefer said she asked to see the specific language in law that would make this clear to her and to date, has not received that information. She said she was surprised to hear under Privilege of the Floor that another transit authority, which is a different structure, has such direct labor representation on their board of directors. She stated she was told that kind of an arrangement would make it impossible to receive federal funds, and said that may or may not be true. The law is less than clear in this area, and she feels it is a matter of interpretation. She said she would be very proud of this Board if it were to work to try to make this happen instead of stepping back from having that kind of membership on the Board. Mr. Totman stated that if this agreement is amended, it will need to be returned for renegotiation and the process would be prolonged with no one knowing what the outcome would be. Ms. Mink said she feels that people who work for organizations have to have input into processes. She said this governing board would benefit by having at least one of its appointees represent the interests of labor. She said if this Board decides that it has to vote on the appointments, she would feel strongly and would be committed to appointing to one of the seats someone who has the sensitivity, experience, and working knowledge of labor. Mr. Joseph was granted permission to withdraw his amendment. Ms. Davis said the work that has been done by the committee over the last seven years is laudable, and respects the work the committee has done. She said she does not feel comfortable not having labor sitting at the table with a full vote. She said a commitment by the Board does not accomplish what she would like; she would like the seat clearly identified. However, in acknowledging all of the hard work and dedication that has gone into this, and understanding this is a worthwhile project, this is a compromise she is willing to live with while other possibilities are being explored. Mr. Todd said he feels Representative Blanchard should be recognized for the leadership she has shown in this project. Ms. Blanchard said Jonathan Wood, Assistant County Attorney, should be acknowledged as well. A voice vote on the resolution resulted as follows: Ayes - 15, Noes - 0. RESOLUTION ADOPTED. WHEREAS, the County, the City of Ithaca and Cornell University all provide mass transportation services in Tompkins County, and WHEREAS, the three entities share a common bus garage facility, and WHEREAS, consolidation of the three separate service providers will promote efficiency and avoid redundancy, and WHEREAS, in 1996 State legislation was adopted authorizing the three entities to jointly provide for mass transportation services in the County, now therefore be it RESOLVED, on recommendation of the Public Works Committee, That the Chairman of the Board of Representatives is hereby authorized to execute the agreement dated December 1997 with the City of Ithaca and Cornell University forming a joint venture to jointly operate mass transportation services in the County. SEQR ACTION: TYPE II -20 597 December 16, 1997 RESOLUTION NO. 291 - AUTHORIZING CHANGES IN CHARGE STRUCTURE - CERTIFIED HOME HEALTH AGENCY - HEALTH DEPARTMENT MOVED by Mrs. Livesay, seconded by Mr. Evans, and unanimously adopted by voice vote. WHEREAS, Tompkins County's accounting consultant, Jack Venesky, CPA, has recommended a change in Certified Home Health Agency fee structure to maximize Medicaid and Medicare revenues, and WHEREAS, New York State currently promulgates rates on the day the County legislature approves them and it is therefore desirable for Tompkins County to adopt the 1998 rates in December 1997, and WHEREAS, all changes proposed were made to align charges with actual costs per unit of service as determined during Mr. Venesky's most recent financial and statistical analysis, and WHEREAS, costs have risen during the past year due to the major technical improvements made to meet the needs of the managed-care market, and improvements were made as part of the plan to maximize reimbursements during years when a cost -based system is in effect, now therefore be it RESOLVED, on recommendation of the Health and Human Services and the Budget and Personnel Committees, That the Tompkins County Health Department implement the charge structure below, as recommended by Jack Venesky, CPA, in order to maximize Medicaid and Medicare revenues, 1998 Tompkins County Home Health Care Fee Schedule 1997 1998 Skilled Nursing $83.00 $90.00 High Tech Nursing $95.00 $95.00 Physical Therapy $70.00 $75.00 Speech Therapy $75.00 $85.00 Occupational Therapy $60.00 $70.00 Home Health Aide $26.00/hour $26.00/hour $65.00/visit $65.00/visit SEQR ACTION: TYPE II -20 Report and Presentation of Resolution(s) from the Governmental Operations Committee Mr. Evans, Chairman, reported the committee has not met since the last Board meeting. RESOLUTION NO. 292 - DATE OF ORGANIZATION MEETING MOVED by Mr. Evans, seconded by Ms. Davis, and unanimously adopted by voice vote. RESOLVED, on recommendation of the Governmental Operations Committee, That in accordance with Section 151 of County Law, the organization meeting of the Board of Representatives shall be held in the Board of Representatives' Chambers of the Tompkins County Courthouse, Ithaca, New York, on Tuesday, January 6, 1998, at 5:30 o'clock in the evening thereof. SEQR ACTION: TYPE 1I-20 RESOLUTION NO. 293 - APPORTIONMENT OF MORTGAGE TAX MOVED by Mr. Evans, seconded by Ms. Kiefer, and unanimously adopted by voice vote. WHEREAS, the County Clerk and the County Administrator have presented their report concerning mortgage tax receipts for the period April 1, 1997, through September 30, 1997, pursuant to Section 261 of the Tax Law, and the same have been apportioned to the various municipalities thereto, now therefore be it 598 December 16, 1997 RESOLVED, on recommendation of the Governmental Operations Committee, That the apportionment presented for said period from April 1, 1997, through September 30, 1997 be and hereby is approved. SEQR ACTION: TYPE II - 20 Presentation of Resolution(s) by the Electronic Future Committee RESOLUTION NO. 294 - EXPLORING A PARTNERSHIP WITH TIME WARNER TO CONSTRUCT FIBER OPTIC NETWORK MOVED by Mr. Evans, seconded by Mr. Stein. Mr. Evans distributed information and maps to the Board. He said the possibility exists for an incremental cost to add one bundle of fibers (six fibers) to the new plant that Time Warner is proposing to put in. They may be willing to do that if the County is willing to pay for the additional cost of that incremental fiber. Mr. Evans described the maps and where fibers of Time Warner and the County would go. He said the clusters of town halls, public schools, and fire departments match with one exception, with the new fibers that are going in. The only exception is in Enfield, and in that case an individual who serves on the Electronic Future Committee, has agreed to help the County facilitate and reach the Enfield area. Mr. Evans said this includes 300 miles of network and offers the ability to extend in the future out from the proposed points. He said Time Warner plans to install this cable in January, therefore, there is limited time to act on this. Mr. Evans said he expects to have more information in the next couple of weeks. Mr. Totman asked if the cost would be about $600,000; time Warner's estimate is $250,000, but - Mr. Evans guess is $300,000 for installation. Mr. Totman said he has heard that these services will eventually be available through telephone companies and other services. Mr. Meskill said there has been no exploration into what other communication companies could do for the County. There was concern expressed over the lack of time the Board has to research this issue. Mr. Proto asked what accommodation Time Warner is going to make to reach areas of the County that does not receive service. Mr. Evans said this is an area that will need to be looked at. Mr. Proto asked the cost of maintaining the cable once in place, and was told that is not known. Mr. Evans said this gives the County the opportunity to do something at a cost of ten percent of what it would cost if the County were to do it alone. He said this has a very high potential for making major changes in Tompkins County for a very small investment. Mr. Proto asked about franchising, and expressed concern that if the County joins with Time Warner, is the County giving them an edge with franchising through all of the municipalities. Mr. Evans said this would need to be looked into. Following a lengthy discussion, in which the title was changed from "Establishing" to "Exploring", a voice vote resulted as follows: Ayes - 11, Noes - 4 (Representatives Meskill, Proto, Todd and Totman). RESOLUTION ADOPTED. WHEREAS, an opportunity exists to establish a partnership with Time Warner to construct a fiber optic network within Tompkins County, and WHEREAS, this partnership would allow deployment of such a network at approximately one- tenth of the cost of such a project independently undertaken by the County, and WHEREAS, this network will allow the connection of all public schools, municipal offices, town courts, and libraries in a single high speed network, and 599 December 16, 1997 WHEREAS, this network will become the backbone needed to meet the goal of connecting every home and business in Tompkins County, now therefore be it RESOLVED, on recommendation of the Electronic Future Committee, That the Board of Representatives supports the concept and directs that discussions of a potential partnership with Time Warner continue.

Mr. Joseph outlined the agreement and said the change in the County's health plan will save the County approximately $500,000. He said the prescription card will change from $1 per prescription to $2 for generic drugs and $10 for brand-name drugs; the coverage for fertility treatments is removed, and there is an increase in the total out-of-pocket major medical expenses. In return for those reductions in health care coverage, the agreement includes a 3.3 percent pay increase for 1998 plus a one percent bonus, a 3.3 percent pay increase in 1999, and a 3.1 percent increase in 2000. Ms. Kiefer said although she is in favor of changes to the health insurance plan, she cannot support this resolution because the pay increases are well over the increases of inflation. She opposes being locked into increasing budgets. A voice vote on the resolution resulted as follows: Ayes - 14, Noes - 1 (Representative Kiefer). RESOLUTION ADOPTED. RESOLVED, on recommendation of the Negotiating Committee, That the bargaining agreement between Tompkins County and the Civil Service Employees Association, White Collar Unit, for the years 1998, 1999, and 2000 is hereby ratified. SEQR DESIGNATION: TYPE 1I-20 RESOLUTION NO. 297 - PAYMENT FOR SERVICES FOR PREPARATION OF TESTIMONY ON PUBLIC SERVICE COMMISSION/NEW YORK STATE ELECTRIC AND GAS (NYSEG) ELECTRIC POWER AGREEMENT 601 December 16, 1997 MOVED by Mr. Joseph, seconded by Mr. Totman, and unanimously adopted by voice vote. WHEREAS, the County has established the Electric Power Committee to advise and advocate for the County on its role in the pending deregulation process for electric power purchases in New York State, and WHEREAS, the Board members on the Electric Power Committee authorized its consultant, Salerni and Boyd to prepare testimony to be submitted to the Administrative Law Judge reviewing the draft agreement, and WHEREAS, said authorization was required on a few days notice in order to meet a mandated deadline for submission of such testimony, and WHEREAS, no opportunity existed to obtain Board approval prior to said authorization, and WHEREAS, this action was reported to all Board members verbally and in writing in a timely fashion, now therefore be it RESOLVED, on recommendation of the Budget and Personnel Committee, That the sum of $500 be appropriated from the Fund Balance to account A1010.54442 for the firm of Salerni and Boyd for services that were satisfactorily rendered with regard to the preparation of written testimony, RESOLVED, further, That an additional revenue of $500 be appropriated to account A1010.54442 as Tioga County's share of these costs. SEQR ACTION: TYPE II -20 RESOLUTION NO. 298 - TO ENACT ONE-WEEK SALES AND USE TAX CLOTHING AND FOOTWEAR EXEMPTION MOVED by Mr. Joseph, seconded by Mr. Meskill. Ms. Kiefer said this is an unnecessary surprise and comes at a time when merchandise is already on sale. She does not feel the information this will yield will be germane. Mr. Joseph noted that this arises through an outrageous and bizarre procedure. The New York State legislature has not yet authorized this, but the County has been told it must act on this now because the Governor and the State Assembly and Senate leaders have agreed to it. He said he opposes this resolution; however, will vote in favor of it because he does not want to put Tompkins County at a disadvantage to other merchants. A voice vote on the resolution resulted as follows: Ayes - 14, Noes - 1 (Representative Kiefer). RESOLUTION ADOPTED. RESOLVED, That it be enacted by the Tompkins County Board of Representatives as follows: Section One: The local legislative body of this jurisdiction hereby expresses its intent that receipts from sales of and consideration given or contracted to be given for purchases of clothing and footwear exempt from state sales and compensating use taxes pursuant to paragraph 30 of subdivision (a) of section 1115 of the tax law during the period commencing January 17, 1998, and ending January 23, 1998, should also be exempt from sales and compensating use taxes imposed in this jurisdiction. Section Two: This resolution shall take effect immediately and shall apply to sales made and uses occurring during such period, although made or occurring under a prior contract. SEQR ACTION: TYPE II -20 Report and Presentation of Resolution(s) from the Rural/Urban Coordination Committee Mr. Lane, Chairman, reported the committee met on December 10. The committee discussed youth services and the possibility of service coordination with the City of Ithaca Youth Bureau.

The committee endorsed the resolutions that are reflected on the agenda. Mr. Lane thanked Michelle Pottorff, Deputy Clerk, for the staff assistance she has provided to the committee throughout the year. RESOLUTION NO. 299 - RESOLUTION IN SUPPORT OF THE INTERMUNICIPAL PLANNING COMPACT MOVED by Mr. Lane, seconded by Ms. Blanchard, Ms. Blanchard said there are last-minute details that need to be taken care of before this resolution is acted on by the Board.

New York State officials to move swiftly to approve the Northeast Dairy Compact to enhance producers income and eliminate price inequities between producers in this State, as well as between New York producers and those in other regions; 2. State leaders and Governor Pataki urge federal officials to review the milk pricing concerns of the dairy farmers to bring the price of milk to a competitive level; and 3. New York State officials continue to work at developing ways of improving the business climate for dairy farmers in the State. RESOLVED, further, That copies of this resolution be forwarded to the following: Governor George Pataki; Senators James Seward and Randy Kuhl; Assemblyman Martin Luster; Assemblyman William Parment, Chairman of the Agriculture Committee; Dr. Donald Davidsen, Commissioner of the New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets; John Lincoln, President of the New York State Farm Bureau; and the New York State Association of Counties.

These rules shall serve as a guide for official conduct of officers and employees of the County of Tompkins. The rules of ethical conduct of this local law as adopted shall not conflict with, but shall be in addition to, any prohibition of article eighteen of the General Municipal Law or any other general or special law relating to ethical conduct and interest in contracts of municipal officers and employees. 613 Tompkins County Proceedings SECTION II - DEFINITIONS (a) Municipal Officer or Employee means an officer or employee of the County of Tompkins, whether paid or unpaid, including members of any administrative board, commission or other agency thereof. No person shall be deemed to be a municipal officer or employee solely by reason of being a volunteer fireman or civil defense volunteer, except a chief engineer or assistant chief engineer.

Shall not accept or receive any gifts having a value of fifty dollars or more, whether in the form of money, services, loan, travel, entertainment, hospitality, thing or promise, or any other form, under circumstances in which it could reasonably be expected to influence the performance of official duties or was intended as a reward for any official action. (b) Confidential Information Shall not disclose confidential information or use such information to further a personal interest. The Public Officers Law of New York State requires that counties make many records available for public inspection and copying. Permissible exceptions to this requirement are listed in Section 87, subdivision 2 of that law. Information defined by the Code of Ethics as confidential does not exceed the bounds of those permitted exceptions. For the purposes of the Code of Ethics, all information falls into one of three categories: the class of information which is never confidential, the class of information which is always confidential, and the class of information which may be confidential. Some internal or interagency records, communications, and reports are never confidential. According to the Public Officers Law, this is true of information that is: • the result of an external audit; or • statistical data; or • an instruction to staff that affects the public; or • a final policy or determination made by the county or one of its departments. Disclosure or use of such information is not restricted by the Code of Ethics. Information is always confidential when its disclosure would: • impair current or imminent contract awards or collective bargaining negotiations; or • interfere with law enforcement investigations or judicial proceedings; or • deprive a person of their right to a fair trial or impartial adjudication; or 614 Tompkins County Proceedings • constitute an unwarranted invasion of privacy*; or • endanger the life or safety of any person. Information that is always confidential also includes: • civil service examination questions or answers prior to the administration of the exam; or • computer access codes; or • information that is specified as non -disclosable by federal or state law. No employee or officer of the county may ever disclose such information or use such information to further a personal interest. Any information that does not clearly fall into just one of the above categories may be confidential. To be certain of complying with the Code of Ethics, all officers and employees must first request and receive an official determination from the County Attorney that a given piece of information is not confidential before disclosing or making personal use of it. The County Attorney shall consult with the Records Access Officer (currently, by Board policy, the County Administrator) to determine whether the county is legally obligated or empowered to deem the information confidential and, in the latter case, whether the county wishes to deem it confidential. The County Attorney will then notify the requesting party of the result in writing. The restrictions on disclosure and use of confidential information described herein apply without regard to the circumstances in which the information was acquired, and include information gained through means other than the possessor's association with the County. (c) Representation before one's own agency: Shall not receive, or enter into any agreement, express or implied, for compensation for services to be rendered in relation to any matter before any municipal agency over which he/she is an officer, member or employee or of any municipal agency over which he/she has jurisdiction or to which he/she has the power to appoint any member, officer, or employee. (d) Representation before any agency for a contingent fee: Shall not receive, or enter into any agreement, express or implied, for compensation for services to be rendered in relation to any matter before any agency of his/her municipality, whereby his/her compensation is to be dependent or contingent upon any action by such agency with respect to such matter, provided that this paragraph shall not prohibit the fixing at any time of fees based upon the reasonable value of the services rendered. (e) Disclosure of interest in legislation: To the extent that he/she knows thereof, a member of the Board of Representatives and any officer or employee of the County of Tompkins, whether paid or unpaid, who participates in the discussion or gives official opinion to the Board of Representatives on any legislation before the Board of Representatives shall publicly disclose on the official record the nature and extent of any direct or indirect financial or other private interest in such legislation. (f) Investments in conflict with official duties: Shall not invest or hold any investment directly or indirectly in any financial, business, commercial or other private transactions, which creates a conflict with official duties. The legal issues involved in determining whether a given act constitutes an unwarranted invasion of personal privacy can be complicated and will not be addressed here. Interested persons may refer to Section 89, subdivision 2 of the aforementioned Public Officers Law of New York State as a starting point, or contact the County Attorney. 615 Tompkins County Proceedings (g) Private employment: Shall not engage in, solicit, negotiate for or promise to accept private employment or render services for private interests when such employment or service creates a conflict with or impairs the proper discharge of official duties. (h) Future employment: Shall not, after the termination of service or employment with such municipality, appear before any board or agency of the County of Tompkins in relation to any case, proceeding or application in which he/she personally participated during the period of his/her service or employment or which was under his/her active consideration.
