REPORT OF TOWN OFFICIALS Supervisor Desch stated that he would like to thank the members of the Town Board for their support during this year , we -. . are now bringing to a close . Through a great deal of hard work , a spirit of cooperation and a great deal of forward thinging we have brought about another successful year . Many of our accomplishments will be brought out in the Annual Reports presented today and as always , much of our work will not bear fruit until 1981 and beyond . There are a number of accomplishments that may not be evident from the reports and these I would like to address , at this time . ' We very significantly strengthened our staff during the year without the addition of any positions . The appointment of Mr . Cartee has brought a level of professionalism to our building inspection and zoning enforcement efforts which has proven both timely . The appointment of Genevieve Miller as Deputy Town Clerk has already brought an added dimension of stability and productivity to our administrative systems . The appointment of our Town Historian. , has helped launch us into an area of records management which will help us develop in 1981 , systems which will further improve our efficiency . The Bolton Point Warrants today include approximately $ 40 , 000 in Town Board Minutes - 2 - December 31 , 1980 expenses and I mention - this for two reasons . First , following payment of the bills we will end the year with a $ 140 , 000 surplus which is essential to keep us in a sound financial condition for the first quarter of 1981 , and easily enable us to meet our February 15th interest payment . This has not been easy because of the rate of inflation with which we have had to deal . Our rate increase implemented in January 1980 , is shown to be in balance with our fiscal needs . We have reached a comprimise agreement with the City on a long standing obligation for Plumbing Inspector , the compromise is at $ 6 , 000 / year . The Supervisor then went on to say that this was the last day for Barbara Restaino the Town Planner and Catherine Valentino , Councilwoman . Supervisor Desch thanked Barbara for the fine job performed during her employment . Supervisor Desch then proposed the following resolution , in honor of Catherine Valentino . RESOLUTION NO . 219 Motion by Supervisor Desch ; seconded by Councilman Del Rosso , WHEREAS , Mrs . Valentino was elected to the Ithaca Town Board in November of 1975 , and served the people of the Town of Ithaca with distinction for five years , and WHEREAS , during her career of public service with the Town , Mrs . Valentino pursued municipal affairs diligently and with a special interest and concern for our community ' s youth and elderly citizens and was instrumental in establishing joint projects in these areas with the City , County and the 1' State of New York , and WHEREAS , Mrs . Valentino , simultaneous with her service on the Town Board , served as the first chairperson of the Tompkins County Cable Commission and thereupon was instrumental in creating a needed franchise which is now in use by many of the communities of our County , and WHEREAS , Mrs .
