Minutes
Board Members Present: Bill Goodman, Supervisor; Pamela Bleiwas, Deputy Town
Supervisor; Pat Leary, Tee-Ann Hunter, Eric Levine, Rich DePaolo, and Rod Howe
Staff Present: Susan Ritter, Director of Planning, Bruce Bates, Director of Code Enforcement;
Mike Solvig, Director of Finance, Judy Drake, Director of Human Resources; Paulette Rosa,

Supervisor as well as Chief Parsons for the City Fire Department
1. Call to order & Pledge of Allegiance—Mr. Goodman called the meeting to order.
2. Persons to be heard and board comments —
Mr. Joe Wilson addressed the board regarding the IPCC Special Report calling for new buildings
to be built fossil-free and at net-zero efficiency standards. He stated that the Town's own Green
Building policy with much lower standards still is not law even though it was adopted five
months ago. Mr. Wilson stated that one of the results of that is Cornell is building its 2,000-bed,
7-building North Campus Residential Project below even the Green Building Policy Standards
adopted because it is not law.
Mr. Wilson thought it was time to make emissions reduction and efficient building a priority in
the town by codifying the policy.
Mr. Goodman moved a portion of the budget discussion up to allow Department Managers from
Public Works to comment and answer any questions as well as Chief Parsons.
Mr. Tenkate stated that the budget will continue the same work as previous years, but the
department has increased the road maintenance over the past few years with this coming year 5/6
paved roads and 6/7 stone and oil roads being on the to do list.
The equipment budget includes vehicles to support the fourth working crew which has been very
helpful.
Chief Parsons highlighted the budget which has a 4.6%increase,part of which is due to the
settlement of the Union contract which expired two years ago.
The other item of note is the request to replace a 20-year old ladder truck at approximately
$1.3M.
Mr. DePaolo asked about the ladder truck and whether the recent development is at the root of
the request and Chief Parsons responded that it is mostly the older 3 and 4 story buildings, so it is
TB 2018-10-15 Pg. 1
not for these new taller buildings which are built to high-rise standards which are designed to do
the firefighting from the interior of the building.
Mr. Schoch and Mr. Talbut discussed their highlights; the new park site at East King and the
Michigan Hills Trail connection and money for overlay on many of the trails as well as
continuing with invasive species control and prevention. Mr. Talbut added that he did request
some money for training also.
Mr. Slater stated that improvements continue in the Northeast and a small increase in the
equipment line.
Mr. Goodman moved Item 6 up due to Mr. Roberts being present to answer any questions.
Moved up Item 6 Discuss and consider a request from Cornell Botanical Garden for a
variance from Town of Ithaca Code Chapter 200, 3-A "Regulations" and 5-E "Prohibited
Activities" to allow for access to their property through the Culver Rd Preserve by
program hunters
Mr. Goodman reviewed the previous discussions on this and noted that this resolution is for a
single season to see if there are any issues. (Attachment 2)
TB Resolution 2018 - 130: Granting a variance from the Town of Ithaca Code, Chapter
200 "Parks & Recreation Areas"to allow access to Cornell Botanical Gardens hunting
program participants
Whereas, Cornell Botanic Gardens has requested a variance from Town Code
Sections 200-3.A and 200-5.E to allow the hunter participants of its Deer Management
Program to possess unloaded firearms (including archery equipment, shotguns and
muzzleloaders) while traveling on the unimproved lane on the Town's Culver Road
Preserve to access Cornell's adjacent Coy Glen Natural Area, and to allow the hunter
participants to be on the unimproved lane on the Culver Road Preserve outside of the
allowed period of�/z hour before sunrise and �/z hour after sunset, and
Whereas, the Town Board has discussed the request and determined that good cause
exists for a time limited variance, now therefore be it
Resolved, that the Town Board grants a variance to Cornell Botanic Gardens from
Town of Ithaca Code Sections 200-3.A "General Regulations" and 200.5-E "Prohibited
Activities" to allow its program hunters to possess unloaded firearms (including archery
equipment, shotguns and muzzleloaders) while traveling on the unimproved lane on the
Town's Culver Road Preserve to access Cornell's adjacent Coy Glen Natural Area, and to
allow the hunter participants to be on the unimproved lane on the Culver Road Preserve
outside of the allowed period of�/z hour before sunrise and �/z hour after sunset, with the
following conditions:
This variance is limited to the unimproved lane shown in the Cornell Botanic
Gardens application, and all firearms possessed by program hunters on the unimproved lane
must be unloaded. This variance shall expire February 1, 2019; the Town Board may
TB 2018-10-15 Pg. 2
consider an extension upon Cornell's Botanic Gardens' application for an extension.
Findings: The Town Board finds good cause to grant this variance. The benefit to
the Town outweighs the detriment to the applicant that would result from the strict
enforcement of Chapter 200 for the reasons stated in the Cornell Botanic Gardens
application as well as for the following reason:
Cornell currently has an access easement across the Culver Road Preserve granted by
a previous property owner that does not restrict Cornell's ability to possess loaded or
unloaded firearms or the hours of access. The access easement is located in an area of steep
topography; the unimproved lane provides a safer route across the Culver Road Preserve for
the program hunters. This safer access and the requirement that firearms must be unloaded
benefit the Town by reducing the possibility of accidents on the Preserve.
Moved: Rod Howe Seconded: Pamela Bleiwas
Vote: Ayes —Howe, Bleiwas, Hunter, DePaolo, Goodman, Levine and Leary
3. 5:30 p.m. Public Hearings:
a. Proposed increase to the Town of Ithaca sewer rents effective January 1, 2019
Mr. Goodman opened the public hearing at 5:54 p.m. There was no one wishing to address the
Board and the hearing was closed.
TB Resolution 2018 - 131: Increasing Sewer Rents in the Town of Ithaca Sewer
Improvement Area Effective January 1, 2019
Whereas, the Town Board of the Town of Ithaca wishes to revise the sewer rent
schedules for the Town of Ithaca Sewer Improvement Area; and
Whereas, a public hearing, duly advertised and posted as required by law, was held at
215 North Tioga Street, Ithaca, New York on the 15th day of October 2018, and the public was
permitted an opportunity to be heard on the proposed increase; and
Whereas,pursuant to the New York State Environmental Quality Review Act
("SEQRA") and its implementing regulations at 6 NYCRR Part 617, it has been determined by
the Town Board that adoption of the proposed resolution is a Type H action because it constitutes
"routine or continuing agency administration and management, not including new programs or
major reordering of priorities that may affect the environment," and thus this action is not subject
to review under SEQRA; now, therefore, be it
Resolved, that the Town Board of the Town of Ithaca hereby establishes and imposes the
following:
(1) Effective January 1, 2019 there is hereby imposed a sewer rent payable by all users
connected to the Town-wide sewer system at a rate of$4.91 per 1,000 gallons of water
consumed.
TB 2018-10-15 Pg. 3
In addition, and notwithstanding the foregoing rate structure, there shall be a minimum
base charge for regular quarterly bills sent on or after January 1, 2019 in the amount of$24.55,
which minimum charge is based on 5,000 gallons of usage, regardless of whether that amount is
actually used.
Multiple housing and mobile home parks of over two dwelling units, using a master water
meter, will be computed as follows: The quarterly master water meter reading will be divided by
the number of dwelling units and the sewer rent charge will be figured on this number as if the
unit was individually metered. The sewer rent will then be multiplied by the number of units on
the master water meter and this will be the billing rendered and the amount payable. If the
calculation of the water consumed per dwelling unit is less than the amount that would be
permitted before exceeding the minimum sewer rent set forth above, then the billing will be
calculated by multiplying the number of units served by the master water meter times the
minimum sewer rent set forth above.
The charges set forth above shall be effective with respect to bills rendered on or after the
effective dates set forth above, even if the measurement is for consumption prior to the above
effective dates (i.e., any bill rendered on or after January 1, 2019, shall be calculated at the 2019
rate even if the sewer use occurred prior to January 1, 2019).
In the event a property is connected to public sewer, but is not connected to a water meter,
the sewer rent shall be based upon estimated water consumption as reasonably determined by the
Director of Public Works based upon recognized methods of estimating typical consumption for
the type of facility involved(e.g., gallons per day per bedroom).
Moved: Rod Howe Seconded: Eric Levine
Vote: Aye—Howe, Levine, Leary, Goodman, DePaolo, Hunter and Bleiwas
b. Town of Ithaca 2019 Preliminary Budget
Mr. Goodman opened the public hearing at 6:02 p.m. There was no one wishing to address the
board and the hearing was closed.
4. Discuss and consider the Southern Cayuga Lake Intermunicipal Water Commission's
increase of the Water Rate Charges Effective January 1, 2019
Mr. Goodman reported on the discussions from Bolton Point and between the wet spring/summer
and the unknown effect of the new pricing structure, the Commission raised the price by 4%
$5.16/1,000 which brings our minimum to $37.95 per quarter.
TB Resolution 2018- 132: Increasing Water Rates Chargeable to Consumers of Water
in the Town of Ithaca Effective January 1, 2019
Whereas, the Town Board of the Town of Ithaca wishes to revise water rate schedules
for the Town of Ithaca Water Improvement Area;and
Whereas, pursuant to the New York State Environmental Quality Review Act
("SEQRA") and its implementing regulations at 6 NYCRR Part 617, it has been determined
TB 2018-10-15 Pg. 4
by the Town Board that adoption of the proposed resolution is a Type 11 action because it
constitutes "routine or continuing agency administration and management, not including new
programs or major reordering of priorities that may affect the environment," and thus this
action is not subject to review under SEQRA; Now, therefore,be it
Resolved, that the Town Board of the Town of Ithaca hereby establishes a water rate
of$7.59 per 1,000 gallons of water consumed with the following water rate schedule:
WATER RATE SCHEDULE
Effective January 1,2019
The rate charged for water consumption shall be $7.59 per 1,000 gallons of water consumed.
The foregoing rate will be the rate charged for all regular quarterly bills sent on or after
January 1,2019. Actual or base consumption may occur prior to January 1, 2019.
Notwithstanding the foregoing rates, the following minimum base charges shall be applicable
to the meter size indicated below for regular quarterly bills issued on or after January 1,
2019. The table below also shows the amount of water consumption that is permitted before the
minimum base charge would be exceeded:
METER SIZE BASE MINIMUM
(INCHES) CONSUMPTION CHARGE
(in Gallons)
3/ 5,000 $ 37.95
1 15,000 $ 113.85
1-1/2 22,500 $ 170.78
2 45,000 $ 341.55
3 70,000 $ 531.30
4 100,000 $ 759.00
6 175,000 $ 1,328.25
Multiple Housing and mobile home parks of over 2 dwelling units, using a master meter, will be
computed as follows: The quarterly master meter reading will be divided by the number of
dwelling units and the water charge will be figured on this number as if the unit was
individually metered. The water charge will then be multiplied by the number of units on
the master meter and this will be the billing rendered. If the calculation of the water
consumed per dwelling unit is less than the allowable consumption for a three-quarter inch
meter, then the billing will be calculated by multiplying the number of units on the master
meter times the minimum charge for a three-quarter inch meter.
The water application fee for each new application for water service shall be the charges for
new water connections charged by the Southern Cayuga Lake Intermunicipal Water
Commission including application fees, meter charges, service tap fees, inspection fees,
accessory materials, installation costs, and any other fee or cost charged by the Southern
TB 2018-10-15 Pg. 5
Cayuga Lake Intermunicipal Water Commission for connecting new water services.
An annual charge for each fire protection main serving a fire suppression system will be billed
along with the first quarterly water bill of the calendar year. The annual charge for this
service shall be $20.00 per diameter inch of the pipe supplying the fire suppression system
or such other amount as is charged by the Southern Cayuga Lake Intermunicipal Water
Commission for such systems. The pipe supplying the fire suppression system is the pipe
needed to supply the fire suppression system, installed downstream of the system control
valve.
In addition to any other charges due to the Southern Cayuga Lake Intermunicipal Water
Commission or the Town, there shall also be due to the Town a charge of $68.50 for
disconnecting and a charge of $68.50 for reconnecting water service where water service
has been disconnected pursuant to Town Code § 261-4 for failure to pay water rates or other
charges.

Vote: Aye—Bleiwas, Hunter, Levine, Leary, Goodman, DePaolo and Howe
5. Discuss and consider amendments to the Town of Ithaca 2019 Budget
The Board discussed the analysis provided by Mr. Solvig responding to the questions regarding
the increase over the past 9 years. (Attachment 1)
Mr. DePaolo noted that he understands that a lot of the increase can be attributed to things that
were put off but there are also significant increases in Public Works that don't align with other
departments and the trajectory is concerning.
Mr. Solvig responded that Public Works has done a good job in catching up with work that had
been ignored in previous years and once the water and sewer studies are finished and discussed
the Town Board may have to look at that and decide as whole what to do and how to fund it
because there are probably going to be significant needs identified at significant costs. We did a
lot of this work in the favorable interest rates but they are going up and we saved a lot of money
but whether or not we can continue is another question. How much per year is going to have to
be discussed.
Mr. Goodman discussed the effect of the increased tax base/assessments and how we would look
at costs as we do each year. This is a projection but there are options if the economy slows down
or predicted development doesn't occur.
Mr. Solvig pointed out the chart on page 3 and noted that the increases are in infrastructure, not
general administration and that is where you want to see them if you do.
Ms. Hunter asked if the increases in assessments are paying for our increases and Mr. Solvig
responded that it is 80%which is much better than he expected, and he said the is conservative in
his revenue projections.
TB 2018-10-15 Pg. 6
Mr. Thaete wanted to comment that the renovations at Public Works might be higher than
budgeted and Mr. Goodman responded that he would prefer to wait until the numbers came in
and a budget amendment can be done if needed.
Mr. Thaete said he gave his support and comments to the capital project for infrastructure and
whether the town pays for it or the developer does when improvements are directly tied to a
development.
Mr. Goodman noted that there is a recent example with a proposed development on South Hill
that will need almost $1M in upgrades to meet our minimum fire flow pressures.
Ms. Leary commented that infrastructure is central to what we do as a town and she would rather
see money spent on that than give our money away to places like the library just because they
ask for it. She felt that this is exactly that kind of choice that the board has to make and the
board should be careful about making them.
Ms. Leary added that she isn't surprised that the Public Works lines have gone up relative to say
Planning because it is more expensive to support capital projects and repairs than it is to hire a
consultant. She did not understand the objection to the increase in that area because that is what a
town does and if we are going to have growth we are going to have to support it with both
equipment,personnel and materials expenditures.
Mr. DePaolo responded that it is not just the expenditures he is looking at but the sustainability
of those going forward and the ability of people to pay for them.
Mr. Goodman turned to the draft summary of changes to the budget that were mentioned at the
budget meeting.
The only item that generated significant discussion was the contribution to the Tompkins County
Library.
Mr. Goodman summarize by stating that the amount was $1OK for the last couple of years and
they have requested $15k this year. A $2,500 increase or 2%increase like the other entities was
suggested at the last meeting and although it is a County library, there are other municipalities
that pay for the County library through their county tax and their own library. The city is going
form $16k to $20k suggested in the preliminary budget.
Ms. Leary began by saying that giving money to an entity that is a community center with
programs that are out of the area of traditional library and she could not see a time when they
would stop asking for money and increases because they keep expanding their programs that
have nothing to what we do. She would rather see our residents tax money go to support
narrower programs instead of a general community center. She felt that the library has morphed
into a human services agency and it isn't fair to the other agencies to increase them and not
others.
Mr. DePaolo responded that that description actually convinces him to support the request and to
him this is a token amount. He added that libraries have completely changed and cater to seniors
and other groups and this is a worthwhile contribution.
TB 2018-10-15 Pg. 7
Lengthy discussion followed with all board members other than Ms. Leary speaking in favor of
support, especially at this relatively small level. Discussion centered around the community
benefits provided by the library programs and the way libraries operate in this new age of
computers, e-books, etc. Offering what sometimes amounts to a safe and/or social place for
certain demographic groups was seen as a positive.
Mr. DePaolo moved to support the library in the amount of$12,000, seconded by Mr. Levine
with 6 yeas and 1 nay; passed.
Mr. DePaolo stated that he wanted to thank everyone for all their work on the budget, adding that
generally speaking he felt the board is fiscally responsible and runs a tight ship even if when
there are disagreements.
Mr. Goodman asked if there were any other questions on the proposed amendments and called
for a vote on the adoption of the 2019 Budget.

10. Report of Town Officials
Mr. Goodman reminded the Board about the Farm Tour.
Mr. Goodman brought up the possible naming of a park or pavilion in honor of Rich Schoch,
Parks Manager at his retirement. Different options were discussed with no decision made.
Mr. Goodman reported that he met with Martha Robertson and discussed budgets and ideas to
increase housing because the rental market seems to have reached saturation. Jay Franklin has
noted that rents seem to be going down, but house prices are still going up. He suggested that
this item be on the November meeting for further discussion along with the potential parking
garage development as it relates to Town Hall.
Mr. Goodman reminded the Board that the City is doing a facilities study as well as the County
and it would be good to keep all of that in mind and have our own strategic plan in case there are
any opportunities that come up.
11. Report of Town Committees/Intermunicipal Organizations
The Public Works Committee for Tuesday morning was canceled due to Mr. Weber and Mr.
Thaete's absence. The Forest Home Drive issues would be the main topics and without them it
is not productive to hold it.

Public Works Tour has been postponed due to Mr. Weber's absence.
Ms. Hunter reported that the 10 Grant Kick Off meeting will be scheduled soon and the sub-
contracts will be reviewed and signed next week.
Ms. Hunter reported that Amanda Champion contacted her for a resolution in support of the
County's plastic bag ban but some people seem to think it needs more study because it wasn't on
any county work plans. She thought it would be good to bring this to TCOOG to get comments
and possible resolutions of support from individual municipalities.
12. Review of Correspondence
Mr. Goodman reported that he received a call from Barbara Lifton's office regarding a complaint
from a resident about Kendall Day.
13. Consider Adjournment
Meeting was adjourned upon a motion and a second at 7:00 p.m. Unanimous.

FINANCE AND BUDGET - (607) 273-1721 FAX _ (6107) 273 1704
Date: October 12, 2018
Memo to: Bill Goodman,Town Supervisor, and Membersf the Town Board
From: Michael T. Solvig, Finance Officer
Subject: Comparison of Ithaca Town Budget Expenditures, Assessed Evaluations, and Property Tax
Levies/Property a for Fiscal Years 2012 ,.2019.
At the Town Board Budget meeting on October 4, Board Member Rich De Paolo submitted the following
comment:
Our budgeted expenditures including capital projects have increased 7% in nine years (including
2019). That does not seem sustainable, given that our tax base has not expanded proportionally.
Since we rely on increasing assessments to meet the bulk of our revenue needs, we are simply
asking people to pay more to finance our spending, even though their ability to do so has not kept
ace. It would be helpful to try to understand what our projected budget will be for the next
several years in order to determine whether some of the staffing increases that are being
requested going forward are feasible.
On the attached spreadsheets, we took a closer look at the Ithaca Town Budgets for Fiscal Years 2012 -
2019 to establish a historical basis as a first step in determining whether future budget growth on a similar
scale is sustainable. I have shown only the past eight years as opposed to the nine years Mr. De Paolo
looked at as the 2011 budget was not broken down the way we have done since 2012. On page 2, the
total budget expenditures are shown broken down by function, and then by class. Please note the totals
shown were also adjusted as follows:
- Capital projects to be financed with new long-term debt were subtracted from the totals as the debt
service payments for these projects will be included in future years operating budgets.
- Debt service totals were shown in both the debt service and interfund transfer lines, effectively
being counted twice, For this exercise, they were subtracted from the interfund transfer fines.
On the bottom of page 3 is a breakdown of employee benefits for the past eight years. Page 4 shows the
information for property tax levies, assessed valuations, property tax rates, and calculation of the Town
portion of the annual property tax bill for a typical property for the years 2012-2019. Please note that the
outs shown for the two Highway Funds in 2018 and2019 were combined when calculating the
percentage increases to allow for a comparison to the single Highway Fund in the years prior to 2018.

$22,177,665 in 2019. This is an increase of 31.62% over this period, or an average increase of

Subject: Cornell Botanic Gardens Application for Access, Variance
Dear Mrs. Rosa,
Please find attached an application from Cornell Botanic Gardens Director, Christopher Dunn, to the
Town Supervisor and Town Board seeking access across Town property to the Coy Glen natural area, as
well as requests for variance from certain Town Codes. It is our understanding that Supervisor Goodman
wishes that the Public Works Committee review the enclosed materials before the Town Board.
Please direct copies of the attached documents first to the Town Public Works Committee.
Thank you for your time and services.
Sincerely,

Mr. William Goodman,Town Supervisor
Town of Ithaca Town Board
215 N. Tioga St.
Ithaca, NY 14850
Dear Supervisor Goodman and Town Board Members,
Cornell Botanic Gardens was pleased to learn of the Town's impending acquisition of a portion
of Coy Glen abutting land the Town already owns on Culver Road to establish a Town Preserve.
Cornell Botanic Gardens has a long history of caring for the portion of Coy Glen that was gifted
to Cornell by the late John Babcock as a natural area in 1996. We believe the Town's and
Cornell's stewardship goals for Coy Glen's protection will be in close alignment and that our
cooperation in certain programs and areas may prove mutually beneficial.
Like at many of the Cornell Natural Areas, access to Coy Glen is challenged by extreme
topography, and when necessary we have worked to secure agreements with neighbors to
expand our ingress/egress options. It is to this end that we are contacting you.
Our request is two-fold. First, we would like your permission to use the currently unimproved
lane approximately shown in red on the attached aerial map. This route would give Cornell
Botanic Gardens improved access to portions of Coy Glen for purposes of education and
research including but not limited to class field trips, the study of rare botanicals and
investigations into Hemlock Wooly Adelgid treatment efficacy. Second, if such access
permission is granted, we would like to be able to allow hunters, whom we selectively permit to
hunt deer at Coy Glen through our deer management program, also to use this lane under our
management, as described below. For such access we request variances from selected
provisions of Town Code §§ 200-3 General regulations and 200-5 Prohibited activities.
As you probably know, managing the deer population can be critical to ecological stewardship
of natural areas, and for preserving the unique educational and research opportunities this site
affords. This is most definitely the case at Coy Glen. Cornell Botanic Gardens has managed and
overseen a deer hunter program on 5,300 acres of land for the University, including Coy Glen,
always putting public safety first. Relevant to this request, hunting at Coy Glen has been safely
and effectively implemented there since 2009. The program is open to the members of the
public who meet our rigorous standards. We perform background checks, ask applicants to
read and agree in writing to a comprehensive set of rules, regulations and a code of conduct, on
which they must subsequently pass a test before being admitted to our program. All of this
information, as well as an overview of the University's Deer Management Program, is available
on our webpage (https://www.cornellbotanicgardens.org/our-gardens/natural-
areas/stewardship/deer), which we invite and encourage you to review. For your convenience
we have attached a paper copy of the most relevant extracts from the webpage.
You may know that Cornell Botanic Gardens has an existing right-of-way on the extreme
western end of the Town property (shown in green on the attached aerial map). However, the
topography makes this single access point insufficient for the purposes of educational and
stewardship activities as well as hunting across our site.
We are aware that Town Code §200-5.E. prohibits the possession of firearms on Town property
designated as a park, trail or recreational facility. If our request for general access is granted,
then we request that the Town Board grant us a variance allowing vetted participants in the
Cornell hunting program to transport their unloaded firearms (including archery equipment,
shotguns and muzzleloaders) over this lane for the purpose of reaching and hunting in selected
areas of Cornell's portion of the Coy Glen. We are also aware that access to public parks is
limited to those times in between % hour before sunrise, and % hour after sunset (Town Code
§200-3.A.). Given the importance for hunters to access their stands well before sunrise, and as
deer hunting-related activities (but not actual shooting) may keep a hunter in the field well
beyond the allowed evening time, we also request a variance from this provision. As described
below, we believe the requested variances meet the criteria set forth for variances at Town
Code §200-9 Variance, for approval by the Town Board and respectfully request that this letter
serve as our application for the same.
Granting the variances requested will benefit the Town. The benefits of a safely managed deer
population reduction program at Coy Glen extend beyond the boundaries of our property and
support the Town's intention, as we've been given to understand it, to manage deer within its
bounds by reducing the negative effects of deer over-population on the landscape, and by
providing proof of concept for institutions and municipalities who wish to establish their own
management programs. Safe and responsible management of deer herds in the Town, as
performed on Cornell University-owned lands, is compatible and complementary to the Town's
goals for managing deer. In addition, it has a spill-over benefit to citizens' privately-owned
parcels of land and their driving safety.
We do not believe there is any detriment to the community. Adequate numbers of deer are
always left for repopulation and for the deer-watching enjoyment of the community. Indeed,
not granting the variance would be more likely to cause a detriment to the community due to
over-browsing of ornamental plantings, greater risk of car-deer collisions, even health risks to
the herd itself from over-population, than granting it would. Additionally, Coy Glen is a
Tompkins County Unique Natural Area due to its significant floral, faunal and geologic features.
It has also been designated by the State of New York as a Critical Environmental Area for these
same features. As such, we feel it warrants the requested variance in order to provide this
prescribed stewardship.The variance requested is limited to a single location, for use by a
strictly limited number of pre-qualified individuals. The variance itself would not allow hunting
to occur on the Town's property. Cornell Botanic Gardens only requests a variance for this
narrow access lane. Our management program carefully limits the number of users at a site by
restricting reservations for discrete time periods.To the managed, Cornell-owned portion of
Coy Glen that is the subject of this variance request, only two hunters will be allowed on site at
any given time.
Thank you for supporting our efforts to protect and preserve Coy Glen by considering our
request for access for general purposes and for variances of the relevant Town Code provisions
that would facilitate selective access by the hunters who are vital to our safe and effective deer
management program at Coy Glen. If you have any questions or wish to discuss this further, we
hope you will contact Mike Roberts, Natural Areas Project Manager, mr586Ca7cornell.edu (845)
905-5872.
Sincerely,
Dr. Christopher Dunn
Extracts from Cornell University's Deer Management Program Webpage
Cornell University is addressing chronic deer overpopulation on its lands through an Integrated
Deer Research and Management Program (IDRM). The program is designed to reduce
unacceptable damage to University resources and plant collections, promote the teaching and
research mission of the University, and to reduce associated human-health and safety risks such
as Lyme disease and deer-vehicle collisions. To successfully implement the IDRM program,
Cornell relies on the assistance of dedicated volunteers, stewards, neighbors, and other
conservation partners to participate and support our highly managed hunting program.
Rules and Regulations
All hunters are expected to follow all Cornell University Lands Hunting Program Rules and
Regulations, and to conduct themselves in a safe and ethical manner. Hunters that meet
these criteria will remain eligible for annual renewals.
In addition to these general Cornell University Deer Hunting Program Rules and Regulations,
all hunting activities must be conducted in accordance with the conditions stated on the
approved permit and for program and hunting zone specific rules and regulations.
Permits& Licenses
• A Cornell University issued permit is required to legally hunt on University-owned
lands. Hunters must possess a valid NYSDEC big game license before applying for a
Cornell University Hunting Permit.
• The Cornell University Hunting Permit is specific to the hunter, and may not be used by
or assigned to any other individual.The permit must be presented upon demand to any
Cornell official or Law Enforcement officer.The University reserves the right to revoke
this permit at any time.
• Online permit applications will be accepted in mid to late August through October 15.
Applications will not be accepted after this date.To apply, hunters must agree to a
Cornell University Police criminal background check.
• Hunters shall comply with all state and local laws and ordinances governing hunting
activities.
Access
• Note that many archery sites remain open to the public during hunting season, but
firearm sites are closed to the public during respective firearm seasons. Please be aware
of hiking trails, do not hunt within 30 yards of trails, and be courteous to other users.
• Hunters must visibly wear their Cornell hunting program identification tag(supplied
with permit) on their person, and display their parking permit in their vehicle
dashboard at all times while hunting.
• Use of vehicles on University owned lands is prohibited. Hunters must hike into and out
of all hunting areas from designated parking areas. Hunters who possess a NYSDEC Non-
Ambulatory Hunter Permit should refer to program websites for exceptions.
• To keep on good terms with our neighbors, do not enter a neighbor's property to track
deer without their permission.
• Hunters are required to wear 250 square inches of solid or patterned blaze orange or
fluorescent pink hat and/or vest at all times while deer hunting during firearms
seasons in areas where firearms are permitted. Archery only areas are exempt from
this rule.
Hunting Activities
• Only white-tailed deer may be hunted.
• It is the hunter's responsibility to know the hunting seasons and legal hunting
implements for New York State and for each Cornell Deer Management Program site.
Firearm use is prohibited in bow and crossbow management zones.
• A hunter may be accompanied by no more than one non-hunter (e.g., spouse, child,
friend,etc.).The non-hunter 1) must stay with the hunter at all times, 2) may not carry
a weapon, and 3) may not trade roles with the hunter while in the field. The hunter
agrees to take full responsibility for a child, to keep the child within sight and reach,
and to directly supervise the child at all times.
• Tree stands and ground blinds are allowed. All tree stands and ground blinds must be
legibly marked with owner's first and last name and phone number. Any tree stand or
ground blind that pierces the bark on a tree is PROHIBITTED. No permanent tree
stands or screw-in tree steps may be used. Cornell is not responsible for stolen tree
stands or ground blinds. Small tree limbs (< 1 inch diameter) may be trimmed to set
up the tree stand or ground blind, but not for clearing shooting lanes. Only commercial
ground blinds may be used.To preserve Cornell lands, hunters may not collect and use
surrounding wood, brush, or vegetation to further blend in their commercial blind.
Hunters may install temporary tree stands and ground blinds two weeks before
archery season and must remove them no later than one week following the
conclusion of the hunting season. To cover the cost of removing stands that do not
comply with these regulations, hunters will reimburse Cornell Botanic Gardens$75.
• Hunters must make reservations through the deer hunting reservation system to hunt.
Reservations must be removed if hunters are not able to hunt on the reserved day.
Repeated failure to remove unused reservations will result in the hunting permit being
revoked.
• Hunting and harvest activity must be reported within 3 days of hunting. You will not be
able to make additional reservations until reporting activity is completed. Completing
hunting activity and harvest reports for unfilled/non-hunted reservations is also
required.
• All participants are expected to initiate proactive communications with the University
deer management program administrator should problems arise in the course of their
activities at cudeerhunting@cornell.edu.
• Rifle hunting is prohibited.
• If you harvest an antlered deer, you will be required to harvest an antlerless deer
within two years to maintain eligibility in the program for future years.
• No fires, camping, or littering.
• Use of drugs and alcohol will not be tolerated.
Failure to comply with any of the above rules will result in a warning or immediate
termination of hunting privileges. Blatant disregard for Deer Hunting Rules and
Regulations will result in permanent loss of hunting privileges on Cornell University lands.

PLANNING DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM
TO: TOWN BOARD MEMBERS
FROM: MICHAEL SMITH, SENIOR PLANNER
DATE: SEPTEMBER 18, 2018
RE: ANNUAL AGRICULTURAL CONSERVATION EASEMENT INSPECTIONS
- LAUGHING GOAT FIBER FARM
- INDIAN CREEK FARM
Attached are copies of the completed Annual Monitoring & Inspection Reports for the Laughing
Goat Fiber Farm (Lisa& Gary Ferguson, Sheffield Road) and the Indian Creek Farm (Stephen
Cummins, Trumansburg Road). The Town's Policies and Procedures Manual for the Town of
Ithaca Agricultural Land Preservation Program and both easements require an annual inspection
to be completed by the Town, with the results reported to the Town Board. I conducted the site
inspection for Laughing Goat Fiber Farm on September 7th and the site visit for Indian Creek
Farm on September 14t , and found both properties to be in compliance with the terms of the
easements. Along with the attached Annual Monitoring & Inspection Forms, there are several
photos of each property, and survey maps with notes added. I have also included the farm
brochure from Indian Creek Farm, since it easily shows where all of the crops are this year.
Copies of the reports were sent to both landowners. The Indian Creek Farm report was also
provided to NYS Department of Agriculture & Markets, as required by the easement.
Please contact me at 273-1747 or email me at msmithLtown.ithaca.ny.us if you have any
questions.

Time to meet the farm dogs. Indian Creek is home to a herd

of heroic beasts. They are kind enough to let us live here and
cater to their every whim. They used to help with deer and V
rabbits,but anymore the Just pretend. They often sing
with distant sirens. Then they nap again.
