Rachel Pierce - former county clerk reported that there was a computer break down and it was her responsibility to see that the town receives them .G%rj time. So as far as the comput at i ores are concerned the delay was caused by her failure to give them to the board in sufficient time to act. So she would like to apologize. She did talk to the town secretary in what caused the delay.

Atty Parkins - the state comptroller has indicated to the town that there will have to be further do umentat iori submitted in support of the application t�D jk.;Stify the cost because it was so high. It was be morid the parameters of what they would consider unless there were some e t ray -ird inar~y c i rcitm ;stances. He ht�S met with the engineers and George Schlecht arid have devised ways to get the cost Qf the Project down. It iricludes cui:tirig 1DUt sCIme Of the service aria pri-,vided there is no `Lnteri;�at for water or sewer in that area, dorm sizing were of the size of the pipes to save Cost and possible wsir7rq some of the stow °age which would be bijilt intri, the Hall Rd. water tank so that a separate tank will riot have to be constructed. They are in the process of work i nq with the engineers on rewriting the engineers report in gc:i ting Mjjkra% appropriates cl }5t estIroate as well as pointing out to the comptroller that this is the cheapest way that it can bS d'Drie because there is rL state :r fedr1 did. Also then °e are people with weIlS cir septic fields that are having protilefns and 'with the riew state guideline= this mar be the l =inly alternative that is available for thefir. We are not giving up ors the application at all but trying tFz.� come up with additil =ir,al factual data which will be submitted ti the comptri -illar for the application which might CLLt down imin the size of the district to redoce the c- t.

Wouldn't it have been eriarter not go with Lm and expensive plan and a ve all of this time. gotten advise from people who knew when we advice f r =gym rear senator i5krid representative and off. Wouldn't it have been wise to save the help us then rathE!r th�ri resubrrrittinq it again, Attyf Perkins rpD, because first of all. they are not goinq to be able to swiFLY the Office of the State Comptroller in their Official review of the procedure zed the coat. He did not think that they would be able to give any advice. One thing that presents a problam ti all municipalities is that the Mate Comptroller until AugUst Of this ,year after 1;i.rr application was submitted, never published gUidel Ines for% procedural forms or anything else. Gr,e thing that we arei doing is reevaluating all of the propos;aj that was ciriginally made with regartf to the new regulations. We are hopeful we cari awake an ergument to the comptroller that there is a good re4ReOri to approve the high costm they did tell us they have never approved a district with this 16 T81 -8 -91 page 3 high cost unless everyone in the district had agreed and aware of the cast. He felt that the engineers who have designed projects in the past have been very close.in their estimates on other projects and very accurate in construct ions costs, project costs and could not fault them at all for the costs. The problem that you run into is that if you approve a project and the project has a maximum cost not to exceed and the bids came in over that then you are farther behind than you were before and YOU would have to start all over again. Helen Lange - if this - goes back to would a public hearing does the town then make another a resolution if it will be established or not and at that point come tci a vote again. want it Supv Schug - there would be a public hearing and if enough people want it brought to a vote then it will be voted on again. Helen Lange - on behalf of the significant majority of the people that voted against the district and couldn't afford it. They would like the board listen to the fact that it is going to be the most expensive district in the state and there was nci recession at the t inre. They cc 1uldn' t afford it then and it is not making it any easier on the people now. She hopes that the beard would consider that seriously rather than pushing it through. • Atty Perkins - the district was approved by the majority. Supv Schug - it would still be up to the people in the district if they wanted it. Martha Ferger - when she heard about the resolution that was passed at the cot.inty level regarding the crisis in the Gulf, she was interested to learn that _our representatives in Congress asked for opinions from governing bodies as well as individual constituents. She felt that this beard should consider a similar resolution and if this would be the appropriate time to consider i t . Dick ? ? ?? Chapter 31 If a resol consider t with hire.

As a Congressionally chartered veterans organization, we do not participate in the debate concerning the propriety of our involvement in the Middle East, nor in any other political issue. We encourage each of our members, and all citizens, to express their personnel opinions concerning the nation's involvement to their elected representatives and national leaders. This Chapter encourages and fosters all activities which demonstrate support and concern for our comrades in arms. We do not condone any action which condemns service members for fulfilling their legal obligations and patriotic support of their nation. We do not support attempts to disgrace the military, nor the actions by some individuals and groups to encourage unlawful activities in protest of military action. We caution the public not to associate the positions expressed by groups with similar names as being those of the Vietnam Veterans of America. Veterans who have experienced the trauma of war earnestly pray for peaceful solutions to conflict. No sane person desires war. However, oft times events do not lead to the desired peaceful solutions and America's military personnel are placed in combat situations. e The members of the Finger Lakes Chapter, have as the United States in the Middle East as do other c agree on one thing, however. The service personnel and possible conflict deserve the full support of this individual supports the deployment of military forces giving full support to the individuals involved in the many varied opinions concerning the role of itizens of the Finger Lakes area. We do all called upon to serve during this time of crisis nation and each of its citizens. Whether an to the Middle East or not is irrelevant to our crisis. As Vietnam Veterans, we do not want, and will not tolerate, the treatment of current military personnel in the manner we received during and following the Vietnam War. The individual soldier, sailor, marine, or airman, is filling his obligation to serve us. They are not the policy makers. When an individual does not agree with the policy, they should lodge their complaints with the political leaders not the service men and women. Largely because of the reception returning veterans received in the 1960's and 1970's, we now have a significant number of veterans suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder; and distrustful of the system which asked them to place their lives in jeopardy but will not provide the medical support needed to overcome the afflictions of war. Returning veterans from the Middle East, and any future conflicts, must be lovingly welcomed by this nation. The nation must immediately give returning service members the medical and psychological treatment they deserve. America should not make them wait as we did for over ten years for recognition of PTSD, and are still waiting for full support of Agent Orange victims. Likewise, the government should take every possible action to recover or provide a full accounting of all service members who become prisoners of war or • missing in action. Families of future POW /MIA's should not suffer the anguish of not knowing, as our families have done for over twenty years. • CJ I 'rBi -8 °91 page 8 REcOOLUT I ON ##74 CRISES IN PERSIAN GULF Clm Corrigan offered the following resolution and asked for its adoption: WHEREAS, the three congressmen representing Tompkins County (Matthew McHugh, D °28th District, Sherwood Doehlert, R °25th and Amory Houghton, R -34th) have all asked for input from local governments and individual constituents on the crisis in the Persia8 Gulf, and WHEREAS, a war in the Persian Gulf could have a serous lineal impact resulting ire the possible death or injury of some of our neighbors and friends as well as thinusands of other American men arid women, and WHEREAS, the Current deployment of United States troops is costing taxpayers billions of dollars and a war would severely increase the economic burden on our Community and WHEREAS, hundreds of lineal residents have expressed their opposition to an offensive war against Iraq and their support of sanctions as a way toward a peaceful settlement, NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the Dryden Town Board urges our congressmen to oppose any initiation of an offensive war in the Persian Gulf, RESOLVED FURTHER, that the citizens and the government show their support for the young men and women serving in the Middle East by providing all the benefits necessary to these service members when they return and to corresponding with them while they are there, RESOLVED FURTHER, that we urge the government of the United States to give sanctions more time to work. in order tin pursue a peaceful settlement to the current crisis in the Persian Gulf. 2nd Clm Walbridge Roll call vote Supervisor Walbridge offered the following Schug resolUtiOrl No Councilman adoption; Roberts #90 voucher #1 No Councilman 29 RESOLVED, fill out the Walbridge Town B_lard for the Yes Councilman Historic Ithaca register for historic to help status Hatfield West Dryden C, immunity Yes Councilman Center in an amount not to Corrigan Yes RE:SOLUT I ©N _ #k75 HISTORIC STATUS WEST 1_�_ RYDEN_ COMMUNITY CENTER Clm Walbridge offered the following resolUtiOrl and asked for its adoption; #90 voucher #1 to 29 RESOLVED, fill out the that this application Town B_lard for the authorize national Historic Ithaca register for historic to help status for West Dryden C, immunity Center in an amount not to exceed $230.00. 2nd Clrn Corrigan Roll call vote all. voting Yes RESOLUTION #76 AUDIT R;_ APPROVE AEIS1'RACT #90 Clm Corrigan offered the following resolution and asked for its adopt ion: RESOLVED, that the general, for 1990 be paid as audited. total of $259439u64 highway and special district bills Abstract #90 voucher #1 to 29 for a Clm Hatfield Roll call vote - all voting Yes i l J oo I 1 ISO J Fm ya ■ STATE OF NEW YORK DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION ALBANY, N.Y. 12232 FRANKLIN E. WHITE COMMISSIONER December 28, 1990 n To: a U- From: Return Keep or toss 0 F.y L pad 7M Dear Municipal Official: The New York State Legislature recently passed a broad spectrum of actions designed to close the very serious budget deficit the State is currently experiencing. A number of programs were affected. One of these was the Consolidated Local Street and Highway Improvement Program ( "CHIPS "). In the budget reduction plan, the CHIPS appropriations for the current State Fiscal Year 1990 -91 were reduced by 7 percent. This reduction has been taken from the December payment for all municipalities whose local fiscal year ends on or after April 1, 1991. Those municipalities whose local fiscal years end on or before March 31, 1991 will have the reduction taken from the April 1991 CHIPS payment. Therefore, your December or April CHIPS check will be reduced by seven percent of the State Fiscal Year 1990 -91 apportionment for your municipality. The actual amount of the reduction in the December or April check will be greater than seven percent because the entire year's reduction will be taken from a single quarterly payment. This action If you have Engineering Sincerely, was one of many taken to close the State's budget gap. any questions on the calculations, please call our Traffic and Safety Office at (518) 457 -35371 0 T.C.
