The Town Supervisor then opened the hearing for public
discussion .
Supervisor Schwan reviewed the portions of the budget
having to do with the lighting districts and the water and sewer
improvements ( including the Bolton Point project ) . The Town of
Ithaca ° s share of the Bolton Point initial levy is $ 1661814 . 70
out of a total' levy . of $ 265 , 000 ,, the difference to be raised in
the Towns of Lansing and Dryden and the Village of Cayuga Heights .
Of the Toxam of Ithaca ° s share of the levy $ 112 , 770 ( approximately )
would be raised by a levy of $ 27 per unit on 4 , 176 units ( approxi -
mately ) and the remainder , $ 54 , 114 ( approximately ) would come
from .revenue sharing funds .
Supervisor Schwan reported that the Southern Cayuga Lake
. Intermunicipal Water Commission voted to raise the $ 265 , 000 by
special assessment . The four municipalities Lansing , Dryden ,
Ithaca , and the Village - of Cayuga Heights � _ will have operation
and maintenance expensos in 1976 depending on when personnel to
operate the filter plant are hired ° There will also be electric
power costs and chemical expenses . Assuming water is being sold
by July 1 , 1976 , there will only be two quarters of water revenue
available for 1976 .
The crucial date each year is February 10 when the
$ 7 , 8001000 Bond Anticipation Note renews . On February 10 , 1977
it will be necessary to pay interest and 3 Ia)rincipal payment of
$ 200 , 000 . Moody ° s Investors rating organization in New York City
advised the Coruaission a year ago that if interest .and principal
payments were made with borrowed money the present AA rating
would be lost . Therefore , it was decided to make a levy in Jan °
uary of 1976 in order to have .funds to meet the 1976 operation
and maintenance costs . All 1976 water revenue will be available
and the benefit levy on January 1 , 1977 will also be available to
meet the principal and interest expense on February 10 , 1977 when
the Bond Anticipation Note renews .

APPROVAL OF BUDGE' FOR 1976
Proof of posting and publication of notice of hearing having
been presented by the Town Clerk , the Supervisor opened the
hearing on approval of the preliminary budget as the final
budget for the Town of Ithaca for the year 1976 .
The Supervisor reviewed the budget page by page and line by line .
Mr . Batt raised the question as to, why the budget indi -
cated $ 3 , 600 for one of the Town Justices in 1976 and $4 , 000 for
the other . The Supervisor indicated that Justice VIallenbeck had
started for $ 300 . 00 less in his first year as Town Justice . The
newly elected Town Justice , Sally Jackle , will receive in 1976
$ 3 , 600 . 00 , $ 300 . 00 more than Town Justice Wallenbeck received in
his first year . In addition to that $ 400 . 00 has been budgeted for
a clerk for the Town Justices .
TO!1N BOARD HINUTES _ 5 a November 6 , 1975
Mr . Batt inquired whether the State of New York or the
Town of Ithaca paid for the expenses of Town Justices to attend
the school for Justices . Supervisor Schwan said the mown pays
for it . The expenses involved are basically transportation ani
lodging .
Councilman McElwee asked if anything were budgeted for
transportation studies or for police protection . Supervisor
Schwan said he was inclined to recommend the appointment of a
committee which would study these two questions . and arrive at
some dollar figures on cost . He did not feel , however ; that
either of these matters could be resolved in time to affect the
1976 budget .
Supervisor Schwan recommended an increase in Personal
Services under ENGINEER in the amount of $ 7 , 400 to cover the
new CETA position of Assistant Engineer . He also recommended
that the $ 4 , 000 budgeted for a Town Justice be broken down into
$ 3 , 600 salary and $ 400 for a clerk for the Justices .

visor Schwan closed the hearing , and the Board acted as follows ::

C1' PACCHE TV PROPOSAL
Supervisor Schwan read a form of resolution prepared by
Walter J . Wiggins9 attorney for Ceracche Television Corporation
with respect to expansion of cable service in areas of low popu �
lation density ( Town of Ithaca ) . A copy of the proposed resolu °
tion is attached to and made a part of these minutes .
Town Attorney Buyoucos wanted the record to show that in
order to make the changes suggested in the proposed resolution a
public hearing would be necessary to amend the current franchise ,
and that no changes could be made by resolution . Mr . Buyoucos
.recommended that a committee be appointed to look into this
TOWN BOARD MINUTES - 6 November _6 .- 1975
matter and make a recommendation . Councilman Powers noted the
Board should also look into the requirements and guidelines of
the New York State Cable Commission . !Ir . Buyoucos said the
Cable Commission wants only two things . If the Town Board
rejects an application from Ceracche TV Corporation .: the Cable
Commission will support the Board since it will have made a
legislative determination and no regulatory agency will force
the Board to grant an application . If the Town Board should
approve any application by Ceracche TV Corporation , it will be
necessary to forward same to the Cable Commission and they will
advise whether they approve of it or not . P4r . Buyoucos said the
Cable Commission will have no guidelines for the Town . The Town
w ill
have to set up its own guidelines . He said a committee
should be formed to study this matter before a public hearing is
scheduled . He said there are certain "' gaps ` in the Ceracche pro -
posal .
Supervisor Schwan said he did not .favor the requirement
of 20 subscribers per mile to qualify for the minimum monthly
charge . He would prefer to think in terms of 20 dwellings per
mile and leave it as a problem for Mr . Ceracche if ' they all do
not buy the service . SunekVisor Schwan noted also that there
should be an adjustment for areas where there are more than 20
houses per mile ( for example 60 houses in two miles ) ; that the
Town might get another mile of cable even though there are only ,
say , five houses . The goal is to get cable service to the maxid
mum number of people . Another `' gap " in the proposal is case
where an area to be served is contiguous to a municipality which
does not have a franchise with Ceracche houses on both sides of
the road will be counted . The Sheffield Road is an example .
Mr . Buyoucos again strongly , recommended that this whole
matter be thoroughly discussed by a committee ,, possibly in con-
sultation with Mr . Ceracchepo further , that the committee members
and the Board should have come to a meeting of the minds long
before a public hearing . The Town Board , he said , should make
the rules and then 14r . Ceracche will be in position to say
whether he can go along with them or not .
Mrs . Valentino noted that there is a group working with
the Common Council of the City of Ithaca with regard , among other
things , to how cable service and franchises are set up in other
cities and communities and that they might have some useful infor
mation . Supervisor Schwan said the information might be useful
Of it related to extension of cable in low density areas .
It was agreed that the Board as a whole would act as a
committee to study the Ceracche proposal and arriv# at satre ' clear
c lt aibr_ s . prior to a public hearing .
HUMAN SERVICES COALITIO T
Supervisor Schwan reported that a letter dated October 15 ,
1975 had been received from the Human Services Coalition request -
`- inq $ 793 : 00 from the Town of Ithaca as i u
ts share ( based on pop -
lation ) to support the Coalition activities . Financing for the
activities of the Coalition for 1975 has come 50 % from Tompkins
County , 25 % from the public schools and BOCES , 12 @1/2r from the
United Way and 12 - 1/ 2o from the City of Ithaca . The amount of
money asked of the Town of Ithaca is to pick up part of the per -
sonnel raises in salary for next year . The sense of the Board
was that it supported the Human Services Coalition concept but
that it should be funded on the County level . Therefore , the
Board acted as followso
TOWN BOARD MINUTES 7 November 6 , 1975
notion by Councilman Powers , seconded by Councilman Desch ,
RESOLVED , that , the Supervisor is directed to advise the County
Board of Representatives that the Town of Ithaca endorses the
concept of County-wide human services , as . proposed by the Human
Services Coalition , i#ith the recommendation that such services
are most appropriately funded at the County level .
unanimously carried .
REPORTS OF TOTAL T OFFICIALS
The Town Attorney reported that Mr . Vincent Franciamone ,
108 Ridgecrest Road , through his attorney , has filed an appeal
from the decision rendered by Judge Yesawich with respect to his
property at 108 Ridgecrest Road . Supervisor Schwan explained
that Mr . Franciamone is now for the ' second time in two years in
contempt of a court order . The original decree directed that he
could not occupy the building , in the rear and the building in the
middle must be restored as a breezevo?ay . When Aire Franciamone did
not comply with the first court order the Town instituted a second
action and Mr . . Franciamone Was again found in contempt . He has
been directed to pay all court costs and faiiing that he is sub °°
ject to being jailed for thirty days . 111r . Franciamone has filed
an appeal and he has until January 2 ,. 1976 to perfect the appeal
or comply with the decision of the court .
Town Attorney Buyoucos noted that every zoning case
prosecuted by his office has been successful with the exception
of the Lucente case and even in that case decision has been re-
served in certain respects . The problem arose for two reasons °
( 1 ) a not too well worded provision in the Zoning Ordinance and
( 2 ) a developer' who looked for a " hole " in the Zoning Ordinance
and found one kr . Buyoucos said he was unaware of any whole
sale violations of the Zoning Ordinance . ^lr > Buyoucos offered
to prepare a position in this regard including also the procedural
relations between the Planning Board , the Zoning Board of Appeals
and the Town Board . The Town Board did not feel it was necessary
at this time .
Plr . Buyoucos commended Mr . Fabbroni on his efficient work
with respect to zoning enforcement and inspection of buildings .
He said the Town of Ithaca° s performance in this regard is very
favorable in itself and particularly in comparison with other muni -
cipalities . He urged all persons to report any violations . Most
act o_ is can be settled out of court . Tie said the processing of
some actions is clouded and delayed by bankruptcy proceedings ,
fluctuations in ownership and management . Action can be slowed
down by appeals and recourse to all legal remedies even though
the Town is convinced that the appellant is in the wrong .
k',r . Fabbroni reported that the mortgage holder for Beacon
Hills is in the process of taking over the project . They would
like_ to salvage their losses . They are considering continuing
the project . IIowever , the lawyers for the original developer and
the mortgage lender are in lengthy discussions looking toward draw-
ing up an agreement . The next step once they resolve who is go -
ing to do what , and who the new. owner will be , is to come to. the
Town and discuss the project again . rlr . Fabbroni noted that the
Beacon Hills building permit has expired and they have been noti - ' .
fled of that fact . This is a case , Mro Fabbroni said , where only
in the last month has it come to light that something was breaking ,,
and to take any action now would be fruitless since with the un -
certain situation with respect to ownership there is a problem of '. `
knowing whom to take action against . There is also unresolved
litigation between the lender and the original owner ..

Coddington Road TATater Project . Mr .. Fabbroni 'requested
a resolution authorizing the return of Piccirilli Brothers retain °
er and interest accrued thereon . Town Attorney Buyoucos strongly
recommended obtaining releases from all property owners on the
Coddington Road and considerable discussion was had on this point .
Mr . Fabbroni said the deadline for presentation of any cliams was
October 23 , 19.75 . Fie felt the- people in the area were pleased with
_ the work and that no claims would be received . Councilman Powers
suggested the Board might go through with releasing the retainer
on this project ; however , in the future situations like this ought
to be considered on the basis of practicality ( that is , it would
be reasonable to obtain releases if there were only a limited
number of properties involved and for larger projects other . arrange
ments might be necessary ) . Supervisor Schwan noted that costs
on contracts could become prohibitive if contractors were , expected
to obtain releases . Tor . Buyoucos reiterated his recommendation
that releases he obtained before the retainer was returned ° how
ever , if the retainer is returned without obtaining releases he
would write the letter by which the check for the retainer and
accrued interest is transmitted .
Motion by Supervisor Schwano seconded by Councilman McElwee ,
RESOLVED , that the Town Board , based upon the recommendation of
the Town Engineer , authorizes that the retainer and accrued inter -
est in the amount of $ 1 , 420 . 10 in connection with the Coddington
Road water Project be released to Piccirilli Brothers .
