VISITORS: Tom Todd, Dave Herrick, Pete Larson, George Totman
and Mr. Daniel Konowalow. Mr. Harry Mussell (8:30 p.m.)
WATER DISTRICT NO. 17, EXTENSION 5
Mr. Herrick prepared a draft questionnaire to landowners in
proposed Water District No. 17, Extension No. 5 for the Board to
review.
Mr. Konowalow from the area asked if a large landowner in an
Ag District can be charged for a Water District if he is not
benefitting from that District. Mr. Herrick stated it would depend
on agreeing on the formula for assessing the debt. Mr. Konowalow
stated that he would be interested in sharing an equal share with
other households.
The Board reviewed the draft questionnaire. It was the
consensus of the Board to modify 4D and 4A. Mr. Herrick will make
the necessary changes and get the survey to Sharon Bowman to be
mailed as soon as possible.
TOM TODD, COUNTY REPRESENTATIVE
Mr. Todd informed the Board that he voted against the County
Budget. Mr. Todd stated that he felt there were a lot of
unnecessary expenditures.
Mr. Todd gave a Charter Commission Review Committee Report.
Mr. Todd stated that he submitted CRC Report and his comments to
the Lansing Community News to be published under the Editorial
Corner.
Mr. Todd stated that he disagreed with the appointment of the
Tompkins County Sheriff and County Clerk. The office of County
Clerk and Sheriff are now elective and should remain so. Making
these offices appointive would make them answerable to the County
Board and not to the voters.
Mr. Todd stated that there should be term limits for members
of the County Board of Representatives. Mr. Todd supports a
limitation of 3 four -year terms.
Mr. Tvaroha stated he would support seeing term limits being
placed on the County proposed public referendum along with choosing
whether electing or appointing the County Clerk and Sheriff.
Mr. Todd agreed with Mr. Tvaroha but stated that the problem
lies with getting it put on the ballot.
Mrs. Kirby asked why the County Representatives are being
reimbursed for mileage to attend meetings. Mr. Rich stated that it
is in the County Charter,
Mr. Todd stated that
he did not

Representatives pay raise.

increase represents a 50o
increase in four
years.
Mr.

closing date has been

Todd stated
that he felt by keeping

this date.

Butler:
