6.Discuss and Consider 2016 Association of Towns'Resolutions and Consider
Designation of 2016 Official Delegate and Alternate Delegate for the New York State
Association of Towns 2016 Annual Meeting
Mr. Goodman asked the Board about any changes to the proposed resolutions from the ACT and
he stated that he did not like the reference in the second proposed resolution that refers to electric
and fuel-efficient cars bringing revenue down. He suggested that it be changed to look for other
sources of revenue and not single out fuel-efficient vehicles as a cause of revenue loss; he
thought it was more from a decrease in gas prices than fuel efficiency and we want to promote
efficiencies and alternate fuels.
Ms. Hunter asked about the Capital Projects funding and Mr.Goodman thought that referred to
the State using funds to pay for debt service rather than capital projects funding.
Ms.Hunter asked about the lack of mention regarding mass-transit after the first whereas and
Ms. Brock responded that it doesn't fall under the type of funding talked about in this resolution
but she could supply a contact for Ms. Hunter to talk to someone about that.
TB Resolution 2016 -003:Naming of Official Delegate and Alternate for the Year 2016 to

Towns of the State of New York dated November 20, 2015 and received January 4, 2016, now

as the Official Delegate and Bill Goodman as the Alternate Official Delegate on behalf of the

Resolved that the Town Board of the Town of Ithaca does hereby approve the Reported
Resolutions submitted by the Association of Towns with the following change: Resolution #1
Highway,Bridge and Transportation Funding,fourth resolved, delete "due to fuel efficient,
hybrid and electric vehicles."So as not to single out efforts at efficient vehicles and alternative

Moved:Bill Goodman Seconded:Rod Howe
Vote:Ayes -Howe,Goodman,Hunter,DePaolo,Leary, Levine and Bleiwas
7.Discuss and Consider Board and Committee Membership and/or Chair Appointment(s)
Mr. DePaolo talked about having talked to the Planning Board about a development plan and
talked about it from a policy perspective and was rebuked for it and so he asked if there is any
place for a dialogue between policy makers and the Planning Board rather than having this wall
between the two in order to discuss policy goals annually so if there is any doubt on the Planning
Board's part on what the intent of the policies that the Planning Board sometimes struggles to
interpret, they would know. We have always been told that the Planning Board does not want
the appearance of meddling or imposing our authority on the Board, but there is some value to
having some kind of avenue to have discussions and answer questions about policies and their
intent and establish a sense of connection between the two boards.Ms.Hunter was in favor of it
saying she only sees the Planning Board members at town social functions and it would be nice
to hear their thoughts and let them hear ours about what is happening with the implementation of
the new zoning and code.She added that it would be good to have the Zoning Board involved
also and give them both an update on the progress and where we are in it. Ms.Hunter stated that
she understands it is not the Town Board's place to talk about individual projects, necessarily,
but it is important to have a sense of what they are doing and for them to have a sense of what we
are doing.
Mr.Goodman stated that we have the right as citizens to go before the boards and speak and Mr.
DePaolo said that isn't the issue, the assumption is that one is still there as a Town Board
member also. Mr.Goodman thought it was a good idea and Ms.Ritter thought something
sponsored by the Planning Committee might be good. Mr. DePaolo added that he quite often
Town Board Meeting Jan 11,2016 Page 5 of 24
hears at Zoning and Planning Board meetings that "our hands are tied, this is what we have to do
even if there is something else we might like to do." and without any dialogue with the Town
Board, there might be some legislativechanges that might make it easier for everybody.

12. Discuss and Consider Authorization for Certain Expenditures by the Superintendent
of Highways without Prior Town Board Approval
Mr. DePaolo asked what the net effect of this authorization is; is it that anything over a certain
amount is required to be competitively bid or is that only in certain instance?Mr.Weber
responded thatit is for equipment thathasbeen identified in thebudgetandpurchasedthrough
the bidding process to be able to sign the purchase contract without coming back to the town
board and save time. Mr. DePaolo responded that he understood that but what else and is there
and are they subject to competitive bids or at his discretion. Mr. Weber responded that general
work thatgoes on aroundthefacilitysuch as garage door replacements etc. are not necessarily
putout tobid if theyfall underthe$20K threshold underStatelaw. Ms.Brock responded that
theTownPurchasingPolicyshouldoutlinewhat the differentprocessesare for purchasesat each
level of expenditure.
Ms. Hunter restated, asking if this means that the line items we have in the budget is the last the
Boardsees of any of these purchases;for example,if thegaragedoor ha tobe repaired,this
authorizes Mr. Weber to get the quotes under whichever threshold and no further Board
involvement?Ms. Brock responded it is not, this covers"vehicles, toolsand equipment" but Mr.
Weberrespondedthat it includedsalt and pavingmaterialsbecausehe has toput the salt order in
before thebudgetis doneandthisgiveshimthe authority tosignthe contracts forthe purchases.
Withasphalt,he stated that he workswithcompaniesandwouldsometimespay a little morefor
material tosavetrips through theCityon particular projects tosavetimeandmoneythatway.
Mr. Goodman responded that the resolution doesn't cover repairs and Ms. Brock added that she
doesn'tthinkit covers thesaltor asphalt.Mr.Goodman stated thatthisisthesame language we
haveusedin thepastandthe purpose wastonothavetocomebacktotheBoardfor equipment
purchasessuch as large trucks thatwere identified in the budget and then bid out or bought off
state contract.
Ms.Hunteraskedif the Boardcoulddiscussthis furtherat the studysessiontoget clarityon
what is covered and what is not as it relatesto our Procurement Policy. Mr. Weber noted that he
has equipment coming next week but Ms.Hunter wasn't concerned with that since it was ordered
underthelast resolution.Mr.Howeaddedthatit seemsthereareotherthingsthatneed tobe

figured out but the existing language is for "vehicles, tools andequipment" and could be passed
for the specific purposes listed and the other things we could figure out separately such as salt
and asphalt. Mr.Goodman agreed and called for a vote.
TB Resolution 2016-011:Authorizing Certain Expenditures bv the Superintendent of
Highways without Prior Town Board Approval
Whereas,Section 142,Subdivision-1(a)of the New York Highway Law authorizes the Town
Board to adopt a resolution permitting the Town Superintendent of Highways to purchase

amounts to be fixed by it from time to time; and
Whereas, the Town Board adopted a 2016 Ithaca Town Budget which included monies for the
purchase of vehicles, tools and equipment; and
Whereas, it is determined by this Board tobe reasonable and proper and in the best interests of
the efficient functioning of the Public Works Department that the Town Superintendent of
Highways be granted permission to purchase such items without its prior approval in amounts
not to exceed the approved respective budgeted amounts; now therefore be it
Resolved,that the governing Town Board of the Town of Ithaca does hereby authorize the Town
Superintendent of Highways to spend amounts, not to exceed what is identified within the
adopted 2016 Ithaca Town Budget, without the prior approval of this Board, for the purchase
during fiscal year 2016 of vehicles,tools and equipment to be used for highway maintenance,
construction, reconstruction, and/or snow removal; except when the lowest responsive and
responsible bidder is not selected and be it further
Resolved,that the authorization hereinabove granted shall be construed as meaning that the total

14.Discuss and Consider Setting Public Hearings for Public Interest Orders:
Mr. DePaolo asked about SEQR for these projects and the standard question of whether or not
the increase in diameter for any pipe constitutes an enlargement of the service area and therefore
affects development capacity. Ms. Brock responded that replacementsin kind do not need
SEQR but any enlargement does because thevolume is increasingand those questions will be
answered in the form. Park Lane is the only one with an increase.

17.Report of Town Officials
Mr.Goodman noted that we now have a vacancy in the alternate position of the Planning Board
and asked Mr. Howe and Mr. DePaolo to be on the interviewing committee.They agreed.
Mr.Goodman talked about the new zoning that is moving forward and noted that the Planning
Department has been working on a report and guide which he would like to bring to a study
session to discuss and then form a working group with himself as the representative from COC
and Mr.DePaolo as the representative from Planning Committee to work with staff to get into
the details and nitty gritty of drafting the new Form Based Code.This will be a huge
Town Board Meeting Jan 11,2016 Page 23 of 24
undertaking and hopefully we can be a little faster than the last time the Comprehensive Plan was
adopted. He added that in the meantime, there may be some Planned Development Zones that
will need to be done for areas that area already further in the planning process such as Cornell's
plans for East Hill and the South Hill area around East King Road.
Mr. Goodman reminded the board that there will be Form Ithaca meetings January 27"^ - 29^^ at
the Country Inn and Suites talking about the Charrette ideas for the area with Form Ithaca. The
public is invited and the consultants are trying to move forward with a realistic proposal and
draft zoning for the area. Mr. DePaolo wanted to make sure the residents in the area are aware
of these meetings and he hopes the group wants to hear from the people who will be affected.
He stated that the one he went to a few months ago was predominantly planners and the like and
essentially Form Ithaca was preaching to the choir instead of to the people affected. Mr. Howe
added that the word "charrette" may be off-putting to some who don't know what the word is
and therefore don't think it applies to them. He stated that the Economic Development
Committee had a lot of positive feedback from people they invited and they were very pleased
the town wanted to listen to them.
Mr. Goodman reported that the draft Sign Liiw and the discussion regarding Transportation
Corporations for water and sewer are the main topics for the January study session and in
February the Conservation Board has requested time to discuss deer management and the study
they sent out last month.
Ms. Terwilliger reported that the renovation is almost finished; we are waiting for the sound
panels but it is coming along nicely and the target date of January 21^' is still on track.
Ms. Ritter reported that the draft EIS is in the next stage of review; it is undergoing a
determination of adequacy which means if it has addressed the concerns in the scoping
document. The City Planning Board is acting as the lead agency and they have invited the Town
Planning Board to take part in this and they have the document and have until early March to
review it. Once that happens, it will be ready for public review and will be disseminated then.
The document is two full 6" binders. The Town can make comments that the City will take
under consideration. The Town will be doing its own Findings Statement at a later point in the
process and we will be very busy with this.
Ms. Bleiwas reported that she attended the training for New Officials put on by the AOT and it
was very informative and a great for meeting other new officials and networking.
