Tompkins County Legislator Michael Sigler April 21, 2021 Big news from last night. Tompkins County Administrator Jason Molino announced that he will be stepping down from his role at the end of May 2021. Molino informed the Legislature Tuesday evening that he has accepted a role as the Executive Director of the Livingston County, N.Y. Water and Sewer Authority. “This has been an extremely difficult decision, but it is the right one for me and my family. This new position will afford me a better balance in my life and opportunities to be closer to our families.” Molino shared in a letter to staff. Molino was hired as Tompkins County Administrator in January of 2018. In his tenure he has overseen the establishment of the County’s Office of Veteran’s Services and hiring its first Director, establishment of the County’s first Chief Equity and Diversity Officer, and the review and recommendation to merge the Mental Health and Public Health departments. In March of 2020, Molino declared a state of emergency in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and has led Tompkins County through the crisis. Speaking of COVID-19, we’re the second most vaccinated County in the State at over 50 percent. We have not reached the point where we are sitting on vaccine, but we expect to hit that soon. We’ve done over one million COVID-19 tests in the County. Everyone over 16 in the Country is now eligible to get the vaccine. We’re now working on how to return to in person meetings and if County workers will disclose their vaccination status or not. We expect that to be a challenge for every business. Mask mandates are starting to end around the Country as you know. Case numbers are down in Tompkins, and things are moving in the right direction. We’ve done a solid job of vaccinating marginalized groups like the homeless and are pushing out to the rural areas and setting up vaccinations for farm workers. We voted to support county funding for the new bridge in Freeville. Normally, county bridges are funded 80 percent county, 20 percent local or town share, but there’s a new April 21, 2021 6 Bridge NY pot of money that Dryden tapped into. It pays 80 percent, so the county’s bill is much less and the county is picking up the full 20 percent local share. This is being debated as a County policy now for Bridge NY money and it could be applied to Lansing as it puts in for Bridge NY money and several other towns including Dryden and the Freese Road Bridge. The Cayuga Medical Center urgent care on this side of the lake is still closed. I’m following up with Marty Stallone to see what the plan is going forward, so I’ll keep you in the loop. The County is working to make the Finger Lakes designated a National Heritage site. We’ll be talking about that at Housing and Economic Development tomorrow. It would hopefully bring in some federal money. It brings up an interesting question. Utility scale solar is not being suggested to my knowledge in the Adirondacks or the Catskills, but is very much being considered in the Finger Lakes. It’s just an interesting confluence of what seem to be competing virtues. On the solar front, the Homer 90 Mw array held a town forum I went to and asked questions. They say that array will be built on marginal land and will not be contiguous. They also will be paying on the nameplate generation, 90 Mw and not the actual power generated. The numbers don’t make sense to me, but I suppose they must or they wouldn’t be building it. The next round of NYSERDA grants are expected to be awarded this month, so we’ll see what’s next. Director of Planning C.J. Randall stated the following regarding solar. • Office of Renewable Energy (ORES) made two (2) new definitions from the draft version of siting regulations o Geographic extent o Host community benefits PARKS AND RECREATION REPORT – PATRICK TYRRELL The following report was available on Town of Lansing website and as a handout.

April 21, 2021 19 Establish or maintain connection with other entities working on water quality, especially county-wide water quality groups; municipalities in the watershed; county departments with responsibilities for health, safety, and welfare of the community; water quality community advocacy groups such as the Cayuga Lake Watershed Network.

Projects * Kathy Bertuch from Central NY Regional Planning and Development heading work. Asked for shovel-ready project submissions – has 29. They are being ranked by a project advisory committee with water and municipal expertise. Should be complete by June/July 2021 *Most of Kathy’s are not watershed wide projects – individual locations. Municipalities will need to hold their own grants – CWIO cannot hold grants. * Ian Smith is Watershed Manger for Seneca Lake Watershed Intermunicipal Organization (SWIO) Working very part-time for Cayuga Lake IO. Looking for project to submit for grant funding in 2021 off both Kathy’s list and seeing if work he is doing for SWIO could be extended to CWIO – possibly a ditch Best Management Practices project. Addressing ditches keeps being raised since they are a main conduit of contaminated or sediment laden water to the lake. *Watershed Rules and Regulations – would be the most protective document to have but a heavy lift. Would need staff to do and funding. *Waiting to see what NYS response to Owasco WRR is before pushing forward on Cayuga. TMDL – Total Maximum Daily Load *The TMDL is a key science-based document addressing phosphorus in the lake and is needed to implement many parts of the NYS HABs Action Plan for Cayuga Lake. *It is years overdue. *Other lakes have 9 Element (9E) plans that address other threats to their lakes. *TMDL a stronger document for funding and assistance, but only for P. *There is consideration of developing a 9E plan – CSI feels they have the modeling and data required. Tompkins Water Resource Council *Updating WQ strategy *HABs subcommittee DRAFT work: Create a draft resolution/policy on environmentally friendly vegetation and ditch management practices. This includes research on highway right of way authority for municipalities to establish vegetated buffers. Disseminate to town, village, and city boards for consideration/adoption. Beginning with a pilot municipality, develop a method to inventory road ditches to create a map with existing depth, target depth and shape, and design/BMP to meet target goal. Monitor water quality before and after BMP installation. Evaluate locations where stormwater detention could be used to reduce water volume in the ditch system. Seek funding for pilot projects in those locations. Share results with highway departments, municipal leaders. Identify priority areas for water quality treatment or BMPs. Use existing spatial data, including drainage infrastructure mapping, wetlands, soils, topography, land use, aerial imagery, water quality sample results, and recently installed BMPs, and other information. The results would assist in identifying opportunities and April 21, 2021 20 focusing funding for improvement projects that could provide the most water quality benefit.
