Alan Green, going to be concerned. reported the tax rate will go down about 1.5 percent Fall Creek Rd - youth services - had heard there was a big cut in the youth service budget and was Supv Schug - the youth service budget has not been cut, but they haven't approved all of the services that were requested. For years this board has always spent more money on youth recreation and services than we get back from the state. When youth recreation and services has a problem the board asks them to comae to the board requesting and explain what they need and why they need more money. This past summer for the 6 week program there was a person hired at a good rate and they also received a weeks vacation, so he worked 5 weeks and not 6. There was also a question of busing, it is up to them. You have so much money, what are you going to do with it. In 1990 the high school and 2 villages wanted to go back to the town youth commission and have the town take care of the money, so both villages are on the youth commission. The way it worked out is we never got all of your money. Alan Green - knows the youth commission is doing a good job and proud of the work that is being done. I knew the support of the town is the key to that and I appreciate the support given to the young people over the years and is needed as much now if not more.

The town has never cut back on the programs because we were cut back from the state.

By order of the Town Board ® Susanne Lloyd Town Clerk TB11 -6 -97 Page 2 the $14,070.00 that came from the county and state would be funneled through the commission. Steve Kirsh - outlined the figures over the last 3 years for programs. On our request this year we accounted for the village program and did request an increase of 5 percent so we could get a couple of pilot programs started. There has not been an increase in town funds since 1995. We had under funded cooperative extension this year. The budget figures from last year did not show where we were headed, but we had some additional funds so we could take care of it. Since 1996 the commission had more people coming in and offering programs to our youth. Over the last several years we have had to turn down requests for funds and others we have cut back. This is the first year we have asked for an increase made up practically from the village funds and also an increase from the town. I would like some direction as to where we need to go as a commission and say who will not get funding. There are a lot of things we can do. Clp T. Hatfield - when this program was first started with the town board and the two village boards there was a very large emphasis that there would be a single youth commission on all of those activities would be funneled through that commission with membership from all three areas. It was a real balanced committee and they could sit down and evaluate the youth, need, program and address priorities and take the matching dollars and make them work for the best benefit of everyone in the town. I don't think I am hearing the same spirit of cooperation, effort and direction existing and this needs to be addressed. The county went to great pains to start this process. I don't think you can come to the town and say you are dropping the ball. This town board has never failed to fund programs once it has the appropriate explanation. Steve Kirsh - over the last couple of the years the town and villages have asked for their money in matching funds and there is nothing you can do about it. According to the by -laws set up by the commission that is not how it is supposed to happen. Our recommendation for this year was $73,096.00 in programming noting that the 1997 budget of $69,892.00. We thought $2,000.00 could come from the town and $2,000.00 come from the Village of Dryden. It wasn't an issue several years ago until the requests exceeded the revenues. Supv Schug and Steve Kirsh will meet to go over the figures and each program request. Closed public hearing 7nm45PM ley TB11 -6 -97 Page 3 Supv Schug - the Varna Community Center would like to put in water line and wanted to know if the town would waive the fees. After checking as lead agency with Bolton Point none of the fees required Roll belong to the town. The community center also found out they have to go under Route 366 to connect to the water lines and wanted to know if the town would be the lead agency so they would not have to pay the state permit fees. Supv Schug - I asked the question if they were going to continue the law suit and I did not receive an answer. The lead agency decision is up to the board.
