Protection services in the Northeast portion of the Town
Mr. Howe opened the public Hearing at 5:35 pm. There was no one wishing to address the Board
and the hearing was closed at 5:36 p.m.
TB Resolution 2020 - 104: Authorizing the Town Board to enter into a 5-Year Contract with
the Village of Cayu2a Heights on Behalf of the Town of Ithaca Fire Protection District, which
covers the Northeast portion of the Town outside the Village of Cayu2a Heights, and is for
the provision of Fire Protection Services, Hazardous Material Incident Services, and
Emer2ency Medical First Response Services
Whereas, the Town of Ithaca, New York (the "Town") on behalf of the Town Fire Protection
District, which covers the Northeast portion of the Town outside of the Village of Cayuga Heights,
has negotiated with the Village of Cayuga Heights, New York (the "Village") regarding a new fire
contract for the provision of fire protection services, hazardous material incident services and
emergency medical services, pursuant to New York Town Law § 184, and
Whereas, a resolution was duly adopted for the Town Board to hold a public hearing on August
10, 2020 to hear all interested parties in connection with such proposed fire contract, and
Whereas, said public hearing was duly advertised and held on said date and time and,
TB 2020-08-10 Pg. 1
Whereas, the Town Board believes it to be in the best interest of the Town to enter into such fire
contract negotiated by Town and Village representatives, 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
approval of the fire contract is a Type II 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 approval of the contract is not subject to review under
SEQRA, now, therefore, be it
Resolved, that the Ithaca Town Board approves the above -referenced fire contract and hereby
authorizes the Town Supervisor to execute such contract, subject to approval by the Attorney for
the Town, on behalf of the Town of Ithaca Fire Protection District.

5. Discuss and consider approval of Wage Scale for non -Collective Bargaining employees
Office and Field
Ms. Drake commented that this has been through the Personnel Committee and the Budget
committee.
TB 2020-08-10 Pg. 2
Mr. DePaolo asked if we always follow the collective bargaining agreement?
Ms. Drake responded that typically we do.
Mr. DePaolo asked if this is discretionary? Is there a review process done largely in part by the
collective bargaining members? He said he doesn't recall there ever being a deviation from the
Union Contract.
Mr. Goodman responded that historically we follow union contract. There was an exception 10 or
11 years ago, around the recession, possibly in 2008/2009, where we followed the Consumer Price
Index (CPI) relating it to the cost of living.
Mr. DePaolo asked if that has the power of undermining the advantage of being in a union? Is that
a concern to us or to the union? Does that drive up demands in bargaining?
Ms. Drake responded that she did not think it was, really.
TB Resolution 2020 - 106: Approval of 2021 Office and Field Classification Wale Scales
Whereas, the Town Board established a Wage Scale, which sets the Hiring Minimum and Job Rate
for each j ob classification, which may be increased each year based on a Cost of Living Adjustment
(COLA); and
Whereas, the collective bargaining agreement with the Public Works unit represented by
Teamsters Local 317 established a 2.75% cost of living adjustment for 2021; and
Whereas, after evaluating the Consumer Price Index (CPI-W) as well as other factors, the Town
Supervisor and Human Resources Manager in preparation for the 2021 tentative budget
recommended to the Personnel Committee a 2.75% Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) to the
2020 Job Rate for all classifications in the Office and Field Wage Scales for 2021; and
Whereas, the Personnel Committee reviewed and discussed the recommendation and recommends
for the 2021 Wage Scales a 2.75% COLA on the 2020 Job Rate for all classifications in the Office
and Field Wage Scales for 2021; and
Whereas, the Budget and Finance Committee during its early review of the 2021 Budget
projections discussed the Personnel Committee's recommendation, and concurred with the
recommendation of a 2.75% cost of living adjustment; now, therefore, be it
Resolved, the Town Board of the Town of Ithaca does hereby approve the 2021 Office and Field
Classification Wage Scales, which include a 2.75% Cost of Living Adjustment on the 2020 Job
Rate for all classifications in the Office and Field Wage Scales for 2021.

TB 2020-08-10 Pg. 3
6. Discuss and consider approval and authorization for the Supervisor to extinguish an
existing easement and sign a replacement easement associated with the Coddington Road
Community Center (CRCC) park land replacement subject to permissive referendum
Mr. Goodman reminded everyone that this project has been discussed since CRCC first talked
about expansion a couple years ago. We received state legislative approval in order to alienate the
current easement of parkland/preserve land we have.
The Town is comfortable relinquishing the current easement with the replacement easement.
CRCC has received State grant funding and have gone to the Planning Board for approval. The
Planning Board has done its own SEQR and now the Town Board will be doing its own SEQR in
a moment making a suggested negative determination which makes no Environmental Impact
Statement necessary, mirroring the Planning Board's determination.
We have been advised by Ms. Brock that an interest in real estate is subject to permissive
referendum. If we authorize relinquishment of the current easement today the 30-day referendum
would start now. Acquisition of the new easement is subject to a public hearing. The public hearing
could be held at the August 241h Town Board meeting.
Mr. Goodman added that Jay Franklin, County Director of Assessment, has been asked for an
updated evaluation of the easements and T.G. Miller will provide a legal description for the new
easement.
Ms. Brock had comments to add.
TB Resolution 2020 — 107a: SEAR: Termination of Existing Parkland Easement and
Acceptance of Substitute Parkland Easement to Town on Coddington Road Community
Center Lands
Whereas, the action is the termination of an existing parkland Easement and acceptance of
substitute parkland Easement to the Town of Ithaca on lands owned by the Coddington Road
Community Center; and
Whereas, this is an Unlisted Action for which the Town of Ithaca Town Board is acting in an
uncoordinated environmental review with respect to this action; and
Whereas, the Town Board, at a meeting held on August 10, 2020, has reviewed, and accepted as
adequate the Short Environmental Assessment Form, Parts 1-3 for this action, prepared by Town
Planning staff, now, therefore be it
Resolved, that the Town of Ithaca Town Board hereby makes a negative determination of
environmental significance in accordance with Article 8 of the Environmental Conservation Law
and 6 NYCRR Part 617 New York State Environmental Quality Review, for the above referenced
action as proposed, based on the information in the EAF Part 1 and for the reasons set forth in the
EAF Parts 2 and 3, and, therefore, a Draft Environmental Impact Statement will not be required.

TB Resolution 2020 — 107b: Authorization to Release and Extinguish an Existing Easement
from Coddington Road Community Center for Parkland Purposes, subject to Permissive
Referendum, and to Set a Public Hearing on Approval of a Replacement Parkland Easement
Whereas, an easement situated on lands owned by the Coddington Road Community Center, Inc.
(CRCC) was acquired by the Town in 1986 and expanded in 2008, and served as, and was
designated for, park and recreation purposes, and
Whereas, after negotiations with the Town in 2018 over their desire to expand the childcare facility
into the easement lands, CRCC agreed to offer the Town a replacement easement of similar size
on another portion of their property, and
Whereas, in the summer of 2019 the Town obtained permission from the New York State
Legislature and Governor (Assembly A8235 & Senate S6441) to alienate the existing parkland
easement and replace it with an easement located on another portion of the property; and
Whereas, this is an Unlisted Action for which the Town of Ithaca Town Board is acting in an
uncoordinated environmental review with respect to this action and has made a negative
determination of environmental significance; now therefore be it
Resolved, that the Town Board of the Town of Ithaca authorizes the release and extinguishment
of the existing easement and authorizes the Town Supervisor to execute the necessary documents
to release and extinguish said easement, subject to the approval of the Attorney for the Town and
satisfaction of all requirements in the adopted alienation legislation, and subject to a permissive
referendum as permitted by law, and be it further
Resolved, that the Town Board of the Town of Ithaca will hold a public hearing at the Town Hall,
215 North Tioga Street, Ithaca, New York on the 241h day of August, 2020 at 4:30 p.m. for the
purpose of considering approval of a replacement parkland easement from the Coddington Road
Community Center as described above, and be it further
Resolved, that at such time and place all persons interested in the proposed replacement easement
may be heard concerning the same; and be it further
Resolved, that the Town Clerk of the Town of Ithaca is hereby authorized and directed to publish
a notice of such public hearing in the Ithaca Journal and to post a copy of same on the signboard
of the Town of Ithaca.

7. Discuss Proposed Cayuga Watershed Project submission
TB 2020-08-10 Pg. 5
Rod, Tee -Ann and Bill have been collaborating on potential Watershed Projects that could use
some improvement.
Tee -Ann has not yet spoken with Joe for an update
Joe commented that he is putting together some maps on areas where improvement could be
addressed. He hopes to bring forth at next meeting.
8. Discuss and consider approval and authorization to execute contract for the South Hill
Recreation Way Native Planting project
TB Resolution 2020 — 108: Authorization for Supervisor to sign an Agreement for Services
with Jim Engel of White Oak Nursery for the second phase of the Town of Ithaca South Hill
Recreation Way Invasive Removal & Native Replanting Grant
Whereas, the Town of Ithaca received a 2018 Urban and Community Forestry Grant from the New
York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC) for removing woody invasive
plants and replanting with native trees and shrubs along the South Hill Recreation Way, and
Whereas, the funding provided by NYSDEC is $38,250, which requires a local match of $12,750,
and
Whereas the Town awarded the first phase of the project consisting of the removal of invasive
species to White Oak Nursery on October 3, 2019 which was completed satisfactorily, and
Whereas, The Town of Ithaca Public Works advertised a RFP for the second phase of the project
consisting of the provision of a minimum of 250 native trees and 250 native shrubs and assistance
in planting the trees and shrubs in coordination with Town Staff and volunteers to reestablish
native species where the invasive species were removed, and
Whereas the Town received four responses and the Parks Manager and Director of Public works
reviewed and evaluated the responses and determined that the proposal submitted by Jim Engel of
White Oak Nursery is the best met the evaluation criteria stated in the RFP and was the lowest cost
submitted, and
Whereas the Director of Public Works and the Parks Manager recommend awarding the project to
White Oak Nursery as the lowest responsive and responsible proposal, now therefore be it
Resolved that the Town Board approves and accepts the recommendation of the Public Works
Department and Park Manager and authorizes the Town Supervisor to sign an agreement with Jim
Engle of White Oak Nursery in an amount not to exceed $11,800 as stated in the RFP.

9. Discuss and consider approval of an authorization to sign a one-year extension for
Animal Control Services
TB Resolution 2020 - 109: Approval and authorization to sign a 1-year extension of the
Tompkins County Animal Control services contract
Whereas the Tompkins County Animal Control contract for services is due to expire and due to
the uncertainty surrounding COVID 19 budget constraints for all parties/municipalities involved,
the option of a one-year extension is optimal, now therefore be it
Resolved that the Town Board hereby approves of and authorizes the Supervisor to sign a 1-year
extension of the existing contract with Tompkins County Animal Control.

ADDED ITEM
Mr. Howe noted that the Cornell Administration, Students and County representatives have joined
the meeting to discuss the College's reopening plan and answer questions from the Board.
Gary Stewart, Cornell Relations, introduced the group; Joel Malina, VP University Relations;
Lucas Smith, Rising Junior; Gary Stewart, Director of Community Relations; Karen Brown, Sr
Director of Marketing & Communications; Pat Wynn, Asst VP of Student and Campus Life; Cait
Baldwin, Housing and Dining.
Mr. Smith explained that he currently serves as the Director of Local Relations for the Student
Assembly's Office of Student Government Relations. He explained that this is a new position
created in the last year and they have been working on furthering student engagement and
mirroring the Community Relations of the College's efforts at the Stat, Local and Federal levels
but working directly with students to represent the students.
He said the goal is to interact with community representatives and let you have an understanding
of who we are and that we are invested in the community. Many times the student body is clumped
together, and we would like to put faces to the names of students and so I have been making the
round of different legislative meeting to introduce myself and the organization. We have also held
some Town Hall type meetings and participate in Town meetings and will continue to do so to
allow you all to hear the students' perspective on issues.
Mr. Smith said it was exciting to let the governing bodies know that we are invested in the
community and there are a lot of parts to this.
Pat Wynn spoke, saying that she reports to Mr. Lombardi, and Housing and Dining are two big
units that are in my portfolio, so she wanted to attend to answer any questions.
TB 2020-08-10 Pg. 7
Karen Brown stated that she reports to Ms. Wynn and they are working hard on move
in arrangements, testing, and scheduling for students that will be arriving in the coming weeks.
Joel Malina said that they have all been spending a lot of time thinking about these unique public
health challenges. As we have rolled out our plan and have had to make adjustments to roll with
the changes of the virus around the nation, it is very important to us to be engaged with our
neighboring municipalities. We want to be as transparent as possible in answering questions.
We have issued many statements with a lot of information. President Pollack last week released
the first of her public community messages that had a number of elements and although I don't
want to rehash all of that, I thought I would try to paint the big picture to our reopening and spend
the rest of the time answering any questions.
We made our reopening decision after considering a number of factors. First and foremost,
scientific modeling by Professor Peter Frazier and his team at Cornell which looked at what it
would look like having a purely online semester and what it would look like with how we are
proceeding which is a hybrid of in person instruction with virtual instruction.
One of the unique attributes of Ithaca, Tompkins County, and Cornell is the high number of our
students who live off campus. It became clear through surveys and then through the modeling that
regardless of our decision we would have thousands of students returning to Ithaca.
In the scenario of a purely online model where we wouldn't have as many levers to compel testing,
to compel adherence to a Behavioral Compact, where we wouldn't have the ability to restrict
access to facilities for those who didn't complete their protocols, that the risk to our Cornell
community and after looking at recent modeling from Dr. Frazier, the spread of the virus to our
non -Cornell community would be exponentially greater under the online scenario.
What makes that such an important differential, is the second factor which is an aggressive protocol
for testing which is already underway. We will be testing all undergraduates twice per week from
now until Thanksgiving, graduate professional students probably once per week, and faculty and
staff will vary based on demands on their having to be physically on campus versus our fallback
position, which is for all faculty and staff, when they can, to continue working remotely.
The testing protocol has been developed and is being implemented in close partnership with the
County Health Department and under the auspices of Cayuga Health Systems. We are utilizing a
portion of our Animal Health Diagnostic Lab at the College of Veterinary Medicine which has
received approval to conduct diagnostic testing, and the results of testing of human samples.
We have already had over 5K surveillance tests in our lab on campus and the results show 4
confirmed cases out of those 5K tests. This is a very good sign in terms of prevalence and baseline
of the virus in our neighborhood, in our county.
This will change as more students come to campus. We will be analyzing data on a daily basis in
consultation with the County Health Department. Based on results we will determine if there is a
need to further alter our current protocols under which we are opening our Campus.
TB 2020-08-10 Pg. 8
Mr. Molino said the third factor being a Behavioral Compact that every student will have to sign
and attest to in order to register for classes. This is a detailed, five -page document that is very
detailed. There has been a lot of back and forth about what can Cornell do to ensure compliance
to maximize the adherence to the guidance laid out. The Division of Student and Campus Life has
developed a Compact Compliance Team working with local law enforcement to ensure we are
aware of violations when they take place. Follow up will take place with varying and incremental
degrees of outcomes leading up to suspension and having to leave campus without any tuition
refund.
We are taking this extremely seriously and although we are not anticipating 100% compliance, but
we are anticipating that with early round of those violators and the implementation of those serious
consequences, we are anticipating a lot of peer to peer pressure to influence behaviors. He said
we all realize that peer influence is much more potent than "Cornell says..." and we anticipate
peers putting pressure on peers to not let them ruin it for us all.
We have launched a public health education campaign, primarily online and throughout the
community such as on TCAT buses and shelters and we want to be modeling the behaviors that
are expected. We have begun installing large signs at all entrances to campus as well as signage at
all building entrances so all visitors know that masks must be worn at all times. This is going to
be a community wide effort to model behaviors and engage respectfully and successfully.
We realize that "business as usual" will not be flying and we have an obligation to make sure that
everyone stays safe and healthy.
Questions
Mr. DePaolo asked whether local law enforcement or even campus security, is being directed to
monitor compliance or is compliance going to be mostly complaint driven? If they are cruising
around and see someone not wearing a mask or socially distancing, what is their directive?
Mr. Malina responded that Cornell University Police, City Police and the County Sheriffs have
had a series of meetings to plan for this. The approach would be for law enforcement to be a
conduit to collect complaints, but for the first response to be one of education. If the violations
include the student community, the first call would be to our Compliance Team so that we can
handle it in what we believe will be the most effective fashion, with real behavioral outcomes in
terms of the Cornell relationship. Those will be progressive starting with educational approach,
but if there is a second offense, those responses will not be the same.
Ms. Wynn added that we understand that people will make mistakes, but the real question is; was
it a mistake or was it egregious behavior that is just bucking the system and doesn't want to
comply. She said the first occurrence such as attending a class without a mask to class, the first
time around, we say, you can't do that. We are placing mask all around campus and we have
purchased 50K masks to make that happen and so they are there for students who forgot their mask
and easily accessible. Students that are refusing to wear a mask is another story.
TB 2020-08-10 Pg. 9
All new students will receive a welcome kit to include masks, thermometer, hand sanitizer, and a
key fob for elevators. We are trying to approach this from a preventive aspect. Will there be
students that are egregiously misbehaving, we hope not, but she thought the process in place was
good.
Mr. DePaolo responded that it sounds like they are largely anticipating a complaint driven system
and asked from what part of the community do you anticipate the complaints arising? Are
complaints anonymous or traceable to a complainant?
Mr. Malina responded that we don't know where the complaints will come from. We will offer
any citizen in the county an opportunity for reporting of any observed infractions. One of the
advantages of this semester is that we will know where off campus students are living whereas in
the past we did not always know where students lived off -campus. This new knowledge will
enable us to immediately contact the primary residence and lease holders of the residence of any
infractions.
Mr. DePaolo asked if that will extend to the Greek community as well?
Ms. Wynn responded that the Greeks will not be permitted to have any events this fall; no events
at all. Not a limited number or any other threshold, just no events at all.
Mr. DePaolo said then they are just going to essentially be dormitories and Ms. Wynn responded
yes, that is correct.
Mr. Malina added that it important to know that there are sanctioned parties; residents of a Greek
house can still have their own parties subject to local restrictions in terms of alcohol consumption,
but we will not be able to ban what would be an independent casual decision of a group of Greek
life members to have their own party for themselves.
Ms. Wynn added that the same applies to any cohort that lives in any apartment in college town.
All members of the same family so to speak, already have a shared space, so to speak. But in terms
of the Greeks, they cannot invite others in and the real enforcement will be in Collegetown where
they invite others in and we will have to make our judgements and go into the enforcement mode.
Ms. Hunter asked if, relative to quarantine, if someone in the Cornell community tests positive for
COVID-19, what are the procedures for quarantining that individual and contact tracing?
Mr. Malina responded that the County Health Department is responsible for any and all contact
tracing. We would certainly be informed if a member of our community tests positive but the
County would be responsible for contact tracing, but we have on -campus isolation facilities for
what we anticipate will be the need. We hope that the need isn't that extreme, but the plan is for
us to provide that isolation with Cornell resources.
Ms. Hunter asked if in the contact tracing process there are 25 individuals identified as coming in
contact with that person, who will be in charge of making sure that those people get tested and
quarantine for 14 days?
TB 2020-08-10 Pg. 10
Mr. Malina responded that all of that is the purview of the County Health Department and we will
certainly be active partners in facilitating and supporting to the extent that they ask for that support.
Ms. Hunter asked if they had arranged any partnership with them for doing that; she imagined that
that is a daunting responsibility for the Health Department and asked if they are comfortable that
the County Health Department has the requisite staff to handle this large responsibility?
Ms. Wynn responded that there is a contingent of staff from Cornell Health that has gone through
the John Hopkins contact tracing training in order to augment the needs of the County Health
Department.
Ms. Hunter asked, regarding quarantine for exposed individuals, what is the protocol there,
especially as it pertains to people who are living off campus?
Ms. Wynn responded that that it is a decision made by the County Health Department. They
basically review the situation and if they deem that the living situation is not amenable to
quarantine, they will contact us and we will make the arrangements. She added that she had that
situation last week. During the summer, about 90% of the issues were resolved by having the
student stay in their apartment or house and we dealt with about 10% of them. Again, this is the
County's decision and they will let us know through Cornell Health whether we need to be
involved.
Ms. Bleiwas said her question has to do with how Cornell is going to ensure that the students
themselves actually submit to this testing?
Mr. Malina responded that that is really at the heart of the Behavioral Compact. We will know if
a student fails to show up for their twice a week testing and if they fail to show up, they may no
longer have access to facilities and there are other ways that we can have that lever of compliance.
It is really at the heart of why we are having that Behavioral Compact; so that we can make sure
that there is as much adherence as possible and if not, there will be repercussions.
Ms. Bleiwas asked then, in the event of an outbreak that can't be controlled by simply quarantining,
how fast can Cornell mobilize to change gears on having students in Ithaca?
Mr. Malina responded that they get this question a lot and he very much understands the desire for
clarity. We are asked what is the threshold? How many positive cases will it take? In practice,
there will be daily analysis of our testing results. In consult with Mr. Kruppa and the Health
Department, there will be opportunities, every day, for us to assess whether our approach remains
the best approach to maximize public health and to the extent there are reasons to consider a change
in that approach, we will be able to pivot quickly if needed.
Mr. Malina added that President Pollack mentioned in her message from last week that we may
need to strengthen our protocols, we may need to close our campus. We don't know at this point
today, what levels will trigger that, but we will be paying close daily consultation and the State
TB 2020-08-10 Pg. 11
Health Department will as well. It is going to be a collaborative partnership and discussion based
on the results.
Ms. Leary asked how reliable are the anterior nares or front of the nose swab tests compared to the
standard site of the nasal pharyngeal in terms of false negatives?
Mr. Malina responded that the surveillance testing will soon be 100% front of nose with the public
health departments confidence that results are as trustworthy. We also know that the deeper nasal
pharyngeal testing is painful so there wouldn't be as much compliance.
Ms. Leary asked if there have been any comparisons?
Mr. Malina responded that there have been comparisons by his team run by the Health Department.
Ms. Leary said she had a technical question about the testing; she said she has heard that the site
of the surveillance testing is the front of the nose, how reliable is that compared to the standard of
the back of the nose? She is concerned about false negatives.
Mr. Molina responded that she is correct, the surveillance testing will soon be 100% front of the
nose and the reason we are going forward with that is the confidence that our Public Health
leadership and the County's believe that the results are as trustworthy as the other. He said he is
not an expert, but he does know that part of this was also a recognition that the back of the nose
has a reputation of being painful and we wouldn't have as much compliance if we weren't able to
confidently shift to the front of the nose collection.
Ms. Leary asked if there have been comparisons of the effectiveness by the Health Department?
Mr. Molina said that there have been comparisons by our team that were run by the Health
Department and as far as he was aware, the Health Department did not have any concerns.
Mr. Leary asked how many student peer ambassadors are out there to talk to their fellow students
about the need for compliance?
Ms. Wynn responded that they are looking at about 300 in total that would be mostly students, but
also some faculty and staff that would like to take this on.
Ms. Brown added that we have also seen people who have volunteered in excess of that number
to say that they are interested in participating in that role.
Ms. Leary asked if there is some kind of vetting process for that role; what do you look for in a
Peer Ambassador?
Ms. Wynn responded that someone who is willing to do it and someone who has a passion to do it
and who understand how hard students have worked to get into Cornell and stay in Cornell and
have this in -person experience, and they want to protect that.
TB 2020-08-10 Pg. 12
Mr. Smith added that students are not shy for the most part and the student voices that carry through
are the majority of us really feel that we need to protect the community and do what is right from
a public health perspective and really do agree with all of Cornell's messaging. If you look at a
lot of the student forums, there is very little discussion now about fighting back against the compact
or the testing. It is really starting to subside and it is more students making a conscious decision
now about whether it is right for them to come back at all and maybe stay at home.
He said that that is encouraging to him to see that his peers are looking at it and making decisions
before they come and decide whether they want to come and comply with the new normal and if
not, stay home.
Mr. Smith said the Compact is a really great program and it really does get the message across.
Everyone is going to go through that program and understand what is expected.
Ms. Leary asked what his impression is on whether there is any sense that students understand or
recognize what the risks are to a young person from this disease?
Mr. Smith said that is a great question and that is where a lot of the debate is from the public health
perspective; students not understanding that we are not invincible. He said the discussion is there
and it isn't the focus right now, but students are aware of it and he feels that they do understand
and after going through the Student Compact, it is very clear that the symptoms are just as likely
to be severe for young as they are for the elderly.
Ms. Wynn added that she has been meeting for the last 8 weeks or so with a group of student
leaders, both Greek and not, and this has come up several times and one of the things that we have
talked about it that you might be immune -compromised and not have any outward symptoms so it
is on everyone's plate to understand that the person sitting next to you may appear to be a healthy
17 year old but may in fact have an underlying issue and the students have talked about that a lot,
getting that awareness out.
Mr. Howe asked what the anticipated number of people on campus including students, faculty and
staff, this year compared to last year? Will it be 50%? 75%?
Mr. Malina responded that they do not yet have a final number, but the estimate is 20,000 students
here in Ithaca out of a total of 24,000. We have about 10,000 faculty and staff with maybe 40-50%
on campus which gives us an estimate of 25,000 out of 35,000 on campus.
Mr. DePaolo referenced the June 15th study that underpinned the decision to resume residential
life at Cornell, and based on the full campus population, which is approximately 34,000, the model
anticipates over 1,200 positive tests in a 16-week period. He said his question is about capacity;
the study envisions only a small percentage of those cases will require hospitalization, saying 16
individuals, and he didn't know how that correlates with the hospital's capacity, but he is also
concerned with the idea that this model, to some extent, assumes that your population is going to
be infected by exposure to life outside of Cornell, but it doesn't necessarily predict what kind of
cross pollination might occur in the community at large as people go to Wegman's or do whatever
TB 2020-08-10 Pg. 13
it is they have to do as a part of normal living. He said he wonders if there has been any kind of
attention paid to potential impacts on the community outside of campus?
Mr. Malina responded that the 1,200 is the high end of the range and it is not that we expect 1,200
confirmed cases of the virus but Peter Frazier, who conducted the modeling, and just this morning
circulated to us and we will be making this public shortly, an expanded modeling to look at impacts
on the non -Cornell members of the community. What you will see is that Cornell's current
approach to reopening results in 700 fewer infections in the greater Ithaca area, excluding Cornell
and it results in 20 fewer hospitalizations.
Why is this? It goes back to the fact that with an unmonitored student population, that is where
you have results that are high enough to lead to a pandemic within the community, but when we
have asymptomatic testing, especially at the degree in which Cornell is moving forward with and
incorporating it, that is where we are able to have this significant public health benefit to our
approach.
Mr. Malina repeated that with the Behavioral Compact, asymptomatic screening, Prof. Frazier
feels that that will be more than enough to control transmission as the students return.
Mr. DePaolo said he appreciates that, but he just looked at the study again and the projection for
1,250 positive cases was the median projection, not the worst case scenario. He appreciates that
the college is doing asymptomatic testing and thought that will go a long way toward containing
the spread. He said his question is, is there an assumption that Cornell would have a very high
percentage of students in Ithaca if you were only offering online courses? What was the survey
results on that?
Mr. Malina responded yes, there would be about 5,000 students that would not be under any sort
of a monitoring or testing protocol versus what we will have under the combination of on campus
and off campus of about 20,000. The anticipation was that about 50% of the student body would
have returned to Ithaca regardless of the mode of instruction offered.
Mr. Stewart thanked the Town for their time and service. He said that they are doing other town
hall type meetings; Tuesday with the Chamber of Commerce, Wednesday at noon with the
Landlords Association and Board or Realtors and next week more. All the dates and times are on
the Community Relations website.
Mr. Howe thanked the Cornell group and added that the Board knows how to reach you all with
any other questions.

11. Report of Town Officials and Committees
Mr. Howe reported that he is planning on bringing an extended lease for the History Center to the
next meeting and the retreat with Board and staff is postponed to January.
12. Review of Correspondence
Mr. Howe referred to the letter received on August 3rd from home owners regarding delays in
completion of their home due to COVID-19 and a request for a temporary certificate of occupancy
and the waiving of the fee. He asked Mr. Moseley for his recommendation.
Mr. Moseley said he told them they could request a waiver and subsequently received the letter
and his response to Mr. Howe was that if you were to allow a reduction for this individual it would
not prohibit someone else from coming to the Board and asking for the same from you for future
TB 2020-08-10 Pg. 19
projects. Everybody is dealing with this, material shortage in certain instances and the COVID
related shutdown — so it is not specifically unique to one property as it stands. It is here because
they asked me to waive the fee, and I don't have the power to do so and the law reads that there
must be a public hearing if the Board decides to do a reduction or waiver. The fee is half the cost
of the building permit which was $2,200 so the TCO fee is $1,100.
Mr. Howe asked if anyone on the Board is interested in waiving the fee.
Mr. Howe said he doesn't want to set a precedent.
Ms. Hunter asked if we are discussing whether to set a public hearing or is the question whether
to not consider it at all.
Mr. Howe said he would like a general sense of whether the board is open to considering a
reduction or waiver and then if we are, we would need a public hearing.
Discussion followed with members concerned about setting a precedent because everyone is in the
same situation and what differentiates this one.
Mr. Moseley said they have had delays in the delivery of materials, but honestly, that is no different
than any other contractor right now. For instance, our PWF addition has had delays in the window
delivery which delayed us a month and another contractor has said windows and lumber are very
backlogged and they can't even get dates for deliveries, no one will guarantee a delivery date.
Ms. Brock reviewed Chapter 125 and read the authorization and the criteria the Board would use
to support a waiver or reduction:
a. the fee for the original BP was sufficiently large to cover the cost to the Town
b. the payment of the fee as normally determined hereunder would be a significant financial
hardship to the applicant
c. the need for the temporary certificate of occupancy was not created by the lack of diligence
of the applicant in prosecuting the work or project to completion
d. the reduction in fee is the minimum necessary to alleviate the hardship to the applicant and
still cover the cost to the Town
e. all other conditions with the issuance of a temporary certificate of occupancy have been
met
Mr. Moseley said there are various reasons for needing a TCO that include having to be out of a
current residence due to lease or fast sale and wanting to move in before the full punch list of final
inspection items are inspected.
TB 2020-08-10 Pg. 20
Board members asked for additional information from Mr. Moseley on the number of similar
situations and additional costs involved in issuing a temporary certificate and indicated that they
would probably be interested in considering a reduction, but not necessarily a waiver.
Mr. Moseley said he will try and gather some information on actual costs and Mr. Howe moved
the discussion to the next meeting.
13. Adjournment
Meeting was adjourned at 7:02 pm upon motion by Bill Goodman, seconded by Eric Levine,
unanimous.

Re: Tompkins County Energy Recommendations for New Construction
To Whom it May Concern,
From the beginning Coddington Road Community Center (CRCC) has prioritized energy saving
and sustainable design for this new building. In reference to the recommendations provided
please note the specific measures implemented and considered. Documentation will be more
detailed in the building permit package.
I) The plumbing fixtures proposed meet the EPA's Water Sense requirements,
2) We are heating and cooling with air source heat pumps. Kitchen makeup air is, also
being supplied with a heat puirip. We are providing hot water with a hybrid heat punip
water heater. No gas is being used on this project,
3) The roof has been designed to be 'solar receptive,' We have ensured that structurally
the building can support solar pancls, the building is a south facing pitched roof, with
an open field adjacent to it. Penetrations and equipf"nent are located to, (lie north. "I"lie
building utility space has been set tip with area designated for future solar
infrastruclure. CRCC is very interested in a future solar installation if they can find
funding.
4) Building envelope has been designed with a low window to wall ratio. The t-value is
exceeded on all wall assemblies. We have also designed a vestibule at the main
entrance.
5) The design also uses LED lighting including upgrading the lighting in the existing
building.
If you have any questions for require further detail at this time, please let me know.

Town Board Short EAF Part 3 Attachment: Coddington Road Community Center Addition
(8/10/2020)
The proposal involves constructing a 9,670+/- square foot building addition to the Coddington
Road Community Center (CRCC) to accommodate a growing childcare program at the center, and
to replace the temporary classrooms that were installed in 2014. The building will be located on
an existing multi -purpose field and gravel driveway and will connect to the existing CRCC building.
The existing parking lot will be modified to meet current code requirements and expanded to
accommodate employee parking, which currently exists along the south east property boundary.
The proposed addition requires Planning Board site plan and special permit approval and Town
Board approval for the conveyance/acceptance of parkland per NYS parkland alienation
legislation (Chapter 289 of the laws of 2019).
The applicant asserts that with the addition, there will be an average of around 120 children and
27 staff members year-round, with higher numbers in the summer and lower numbers in other
parts of the year. This is an overall average increase of 36 children year-round and an additional
9 staff members (84 current students, 18 staff). As such, the proposal will expand the use and
increase the intensity of the use. However, the project includes mitigation measures below that
will reduce environmental impacts associated with the expansion.
Regarding traffic and parking, the site distance is limited for those approaching the northern
entrance driveway. This situation was evaluated in the 2014 approval and it was determined that
the entrance -only at the northern access and exit -only at the southern access mitigated the site
distance issue. The only change to the entrance/exit with this proposal is to narrow the access
points at Coddington Road, which will make the northern entrance even safer to enter. Given
that Coddington Road is a county road, it will be capable of handling the increased traffic from
parents and employees entering the site.
The proposed number of parking spaces exceeds the number required by zoning but is
appropriate for the projected annual number of users of the property without being excessive (35
spaces proposed for 27 staff, leaving 8 spaces for parents and visitors). Overall, the proposed
parking lot improvements will result in a safer parking lot for users, with striped parking spaces,
wider travel lane that facilitates safe traffic circulation, and parking space sizes that meet code
requirements. There will be no significant traffic increase or negative traffic impacts resulting
from the project.
The project involves some tree loss, grading, and a slight increase in impervious surfaces. There
are some very large Maple trees that border the north and west sides of the property, near the
proposed employee parking area. These trees should be preserved during construction and
protected with fencing around the drip line to prevent construction equipment and materials
from impacting the trees. The project includes new spruce trees in the same area to provide
parking lot screening.
The building itself will be located on an existing ballfield and gravel drive, so the site has already
been disturbed. While there could be a potential increase in erosion, flooding and drainage
problems, the project includes erosion and sedimentation controls, and an underground
stormwater management system to treat and mitigate stormwater runoff in accordance with
NYSDEC regulations.
The addition is situated so that the narrowest part of the building faces Coddington Road. The
building is also low profile, with materials that are natural and expected to blend in with the
surroundings. This will help mitigate visual and aesthetic impacts of the building on the
surrounding neighborhood.
There is an existing easement for a town park on the CRCC property that was originally
established in 1986. The 1986 park easement area (replaced in 2008) includes a ballfield, a
pavilion and walking paths. Over time, the use of the ball field has decreased, and the CRCC has
appealed to the Town Board to alienate this part of the park so they can develop the addition to
the existing CRCC building on a portion of the field. To accommodate the request, the Town
Board has decided to terminate the existing easement and has designated an area outside of the
ballfield that encompasses the pavilion and walking paths as the replacement parkland. As the
town has another ballfield at Tutelo Park that better serves the community, the proposed new
easement area is envisioned for passive recreation and is expected to serve the overall
community as well as the CRCC. There are no anticipated negative environmental impacts
associated with the Town Board action to terminate the existing park easement and accept the
new easement.
Regarding sewer capacity, the project involves upgrading the existing septic system to
appropriately accommodate the increase in the number of users. In terms of water capacity, the
proposal will have adequate water pressure and flow for regular activities and uses in the
building. However, there is an existing issue with the supply of water for fire suppression, based
on calculations that are shy of those required in the NYS Uniform Code for adequate sprinkler and
fire flow. The Town plans to upgrade an existing water line along King Road East (part of the Troy
Road water tank system) that serves this area of South Hill near, and including, the CRCC. This
upgrade will increase flows to the system which will provide the fire flow required. In the
meantime, the applicant plans to either seek a sprinkler variance from NYS or install a temporary
water tank to provide additional fire flow for the project. The available solutions will reduce the
potential for significant environmental impacts related to the project.
Regarding Part 1, Question 13a, there is a NYS DEC -classified stream that crosses the CRCC
property along the south west side (more than 600 feet from Coddington Road at the crossing
point). The stream is around 175+/- feet west of the proposed building, and off the CRCC
property at that point. There will be no significant adverse environmental impacts on the stream
resulting from the project.
