JUNE 17, 2020 TOWN BOARD MEETING PAGE 2
Attorney DelVecchio reported:
Proposed Local Law Prohibiting Weapons in Town Buildings:
Attorney DelVecchio apprised the Board he was looking into whether or not the Town
had a policy or local law previously adopted regarding the allowance of weapons on Town
property and whether law enforcement could disallow the public entry into Town buildings if
they had a weapon. He stated that the Office of Court Administration has rules and regulations
regarding not allowing weapons in the court room, however a question arose as to whether
weapons were permitted in the buildings at all. Attorney DelVecchio and the Town Clerk were
looking into the matter. Discussion occurred amongst the Board with the consensus being that
the Town would be remiss if such a policy did not exist and that a policy was necessary if one
was not already in place. Attorney DelVecchio explained that if the Town adopted a local law, a
penalties provision could be included to give the Town the right to bring an enforcement action
and impose additional penalties. Supervisor Williams was in favor of adopting a local law rather
than only having a policy, which could be enforced by the Sheriff’s Department. Attorney
DelVecchio would report back to the Board at the next meeting with possible language to
address concerns.
At this time in the meeting, a member of the public, Anthony Pace, joined the meeting.
Proposed Bonding for Town Vehicles:
Attorney DelVecchio recalled prior discussion regarding the possibility of going to bond
for the purchase of new Highway Department and Water/Sewer Department vehicles that were
previously approved for purchase and on order. Due to COVID-19 and uncertainties in the
unearned revenue for the Town as budgeted for in 2020, Supervisor Williams suggested at a
prior meeting that the Town seek a short-term bond for the purchase of the vehicles that could be
paid off if the Town’s finances allowed. Attorney DelVecchio apprised the Board he spoke with
Bond Counsel regarding the matter and reported that the procedure is rather simple to pursue. If
the Board was still interested in seeking bonds he would ask Bond Counsel to start the process
for formal documentation; further Board approval would be necessary.
Supervisor Williams explained there was money in the 2020 Budget for the purchase of
the new trucks, however he was concerned there could be a budget shortfall due to the potential
decrease in the projected sales tax revenue. He expected the new highway truck to be delivered
in September (the purchase was authorized in 2019 and included in the 2020 Budget).
Councilman Withey stated he was opposed to bonding for the vehicles and that the Board
should stay focused on what was budgeted for; the Board should work hard to get around the
penalties of COVID-19. Councilman Guido stated he would like to see the 2nd quarter financial
reports before moving forward with bonding. Supervisor Williams explained that he already
started preparation for the 2021 budget. He explained that timing of the financial reports and
when the Board would have information regarding the sales tax revenue.
If the Town went to bond, Councilman Guido asked if there would be a penalty for early
payoff. Attorney DelVecchio did not think there would be penalty. Supervisor Williams stated
he was told that the early payoff could be written into the bond.
Supervisor Williams apprised the Board he was trying to save as much money as possible
this year. He reported on areas that the Town would be saving money, which included the
following: the Highway Department had three less employees – two positions would not be
filled this year which would result in savings for salary and benefits not being paid; there was
one announced retirement within Town Hall. Supervisor Williams reiterated his concern for
sales tax revenue and what the Town would actually receive versus the $2.3 million budgeted.
After further discussion, Attorney DelVecchio stated he would report back to the Board
at the next meeting with more information.
Town Board Reports:
Councilman Withey reported on the Town’s workers’ compensation plan with PERMA.
He and Supervisor Williams attended a workers’ compensation meeting at the County on June
16, 2020. He gave the Board a brief synopsis of the discussion that was had, which included the
following: payment for workers’ compensation is now payroll based; “tail claim” discussion –
the Town had approximately $50,000 in tail claims; new plan may save the Town 7-10% as to
what the Town would have to pay for workers’ compensation in the open market. Most
municipalities in the County opted into PERMA (Village and Town of Homer opted out).
Overall, Councilman Withey stated that the new plan was working well.
JUNE 17, 2020 TOWN BOARD MEETING PAGE 3
Supervisor Williams added that there may be adjustments or credits on the 2020 policy
based on how the Town is conducting business at this time. For instance, due to COVID -19 and
cutbacks, the Town Highway Department employees would not be paving as much as they
normally do and therefore would not be working in as potentially dangerous situations.
Supervisor Williams asked Highway Sup’t. Bassett and Water & Sewer Sup’t. Alteri to keep
track of the work being completed by employees and hoped that by reporting the work the Town
may receive a refund.
Supervisor Williams reported:
Update on Town Hall:
Supervisor Williams updated the Board on some changes to the Raymond G. Thorpe
Municipal Building – Town Hall. The employee entrance now has a picnic table and a bench
would be added. A new drop box was installed curbside at the main entrance to be used for
Town Hall and Town Court business. Also, now that the Court is open to the public, he
explained that a court clerk is directing the public when possible to use the drop box.
Supervisor Williams informed the Board that Nick Alteri working at the reception desk is
a tech savvy and is certified Google Suite instructor. He will be teaching the Town empl oyees
how to use Google Suite while Town Hall is closed to the public. Board members were
encouraged to attend the training as well. He also mentioned that the Town may use the platform
“Google Meet” for future Board meetings rather than utilizing Zoom as it had more capabilities
including transcription which would be helpful. Attorney DelVecchio explained that the Town
Clerk must transcribe all Town Board meetings held by videoconference (in addition to the
official Board Minutes) which is time consuming.
Planning Board & ZBA Meetings:
Supervisor Williams apprised the Board that there was some confusion at the June 2,
2020 Planning Board and Zoning Board of Appeals meetings held in the Municipal Garage. He
was under the impression that a temperature check would be done upon entry to the meetings to
safeguard against asymptomatic people in respect to the coronavirus; that did not happen. The
next Planning/ZBA meetings would be held on June 30, 2020 and Town employee, Nick Alteri
would be present to check people in as he does in the Town Hall daily, which would help with
contract tracing if needed.
Assistant Bookkeeper – Work Anniversary:
Supervisor Williams informed the Board that Assistant Bookkeeper Megan Johnson
recently completed two years of employment with Town. He complimented her work and
mentioned that he encouraged her to continue her education towards a bachelors’ degree. Mrs.
Johnson would be taking online courses starting in the fall. Supervisor Williams explained that
the Town provides for/pays for continuing education. Mrs. Johnson would also be taking on new
responsibilities once Bookkeeper Marcia Hicks retired at the end of July.
Policy for Masks and Social Distancing:
Supervisor Williams apprised the Board that a question arose as to the T own’s official
position regarding employees/officials wearing masks and social distancing when interacting
with the public or at a public meeting. Supervisor Williams asked the Board to adopt an official
policy and outlined the policy which was agreed upon and adopted as set forth below.
RESOLUTION #143 APPROVE COVID-19 SAFETY POLICY FOR THE TOWN OF
CORTLANDVILLE
Motion by Councilman Testa
Seconded by Councilman Guido
VOTES: AYE – Williams, Cobb, Guido, Testa, Withey NAY – 0
ADOPTED
BE IT RESOLVED, the Town Board does hereby approve the COVID -19 Safety Policy for the
Town of Cortlandville as follows:
JUNE 17, 2020 TOWN BOARD MEETING PAGE 4
1. Approved masks shall be worn by all employees, Board Members and any member of the
public while in any Town Building, except employees working alone in individual offices
or work areas;
2. All employees shall wear masks when dealing with other employees unless they are a
minimum of six feet apart;
3. All employees shall wear masks in hallways in all Town Buildings;
4. All employees shall be screened for temperature as they arrive for work each day;
5. All employees, Town Board members and public shall wear masks at any indoor
meeting; unless due to medical reasons, wearing a mask would be detrimental to his/her
health in which case the person(s) shall be seated at all times and remain six feet from
others. The Town Supervisor of Board Chairperson will make the determination for
exception. A temperature screening will be done as all people enter the building.
Replacement of Driveway Pipe:
Supervisor Williams apprised the Board that he personally purchased two pieces of black
plastic drain pipe from JC Smith in Syracuse to be installed at the driveway at his home.
Because the driveway pipe is in the right of way he cannot complete the work himself and it
must be completed by the Highway Department. Supervisor Williams disclosed the information
so that the Board and public were aware.
Playground at Gutchess Lumber Sports Complex:
Supervisor Williams informed the Board he had a meeting today with Highway Sup’t.
Bassett and Laura Cassalia from the Town’s engineering firm, CHA, to discuss plans for the
accessible playground at the Gutchess Lumber Sports Complex (GLSC). The Town has
approximately $84,292.39 in Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program income
funds already committed (and approved by the NYS Office of Community Renewal) for the
playground, as well as a $10,000 donation for the playground. There are three major
components of the playground: a “small” play area for age’s two to five that is accessible for
children with disabilities; a “medium” play area for ages six to twelve; and a “large” play area
for older children.
Supervisor Williams explained that if the Town purchases the small and medium
components as well as the material needed for the ground cover, the total cost would be
approximately $115,000; $20,000 short of what the Town has on hand to spend. To purchase the
equipment for all three components of the playground the cost would be approximately
$150,000. CHA would provide a new quote embracing what he and Highway Sup’t. Bassett
suggested, taking out a fair amount of the labor that would be provided (by the Town and
volunteers).
Supervisor Williams stated that after discussing the project and the Town budget, he and
Highway Sup’t. Bassett agreed they would like the Town to purchase the equipment and
complete the playground project utilizing surplus funds in the highway budget that would not be
spent in 2020. For example, there is $150,000 in the budget for snow removal that was not
anticipated to be spent by the end of the year; surplus in personnel due to summer help
employees not hired; excess funds in the budget for the purchase of salt. Supervisor Williams
stated that the Town could easily finance the completion of the small and medium portion of the
project; or finance the rest of the project outside of what the Town already has and to complete
the project. Supervisor Williams stated that the Board would know more about the Town’s
finances in July after the financial reports are complete for the first half of the year and would
also have the complete project pricing.
There was a brief discussion regarding fundraising for the GLSC. Supervisor Williams
stated he was considering publishing a newspaper advertisement for fundraising purposes and
memorial contributions. Councilman Testa explained that his fundraising efforts paused due to
COVID-19, but stated there were many possibilities for naming rights at the park that would
generate money for the park. He boasted about the future of the GLSC and the potential impact
it would have on the community when completed.
Councilman Testa mentioned that screening was necessary for the pavilion area to protect
people from possible fly balls from the baseball field. Supervisor Williams indicated that the
screens were being looked into, and added that the location of the playground was also moved
back further for safety reasons. The playground would still be visible from the baseball fields.
JUNE 17, 2020 TOWN BOARD MEETING PAGE 5
Councilman Withey stated he was in favor of at least purchasing the equipment to avoid
losing the grant funds, and asked if the Town had a location to store the equipment until it could
be installed. Supervisor Williams explained that the Town was looking into a lease agreement
with Byrne Dairy to utilize the old barn on their property. Purchasing and storing the equipment
would not be a problem. The Board would revisit the matter at a future Board meeting.
Park Outdoor Advertising of New York, Inc. – Proposed Billboard on Town Property:
Supervisor Williams apprised the Board that included in their agenda packet was an
unsolicited proposal from Park Outdoor Advertising of New York, Inc. to install an electronic
billboard on Town property at the Gutchess Lumber Sports Complex. However, there is an
“alienation clause” that is strict about municipalities entering into commercial agreements.
Attorney DelVecchio explained that the Gutchess Park is a Town park. Any changes to the
property could be considered alienation. A public park is to be used as a park for the public.
The municipality should not be profiting off of certain things associated with a public park. The
Town has to be careful about such an arrangement.
Supervisor Williams stated he would ask Park Outdoor Advertising if they have run into
this situation before and would ask them to do the research. He explained that the proposal was
to lease/rent land for $14,000 per year.
COVID-19 Testing:
Supervisor Williams stated he would like to offer employees and officers of Town, if
they don’t have insurance to pay for a COVID-19 test, that the Town would pay for the test. He
stated that it would be to protect Town Hall and employees; an underinsured person may hesitate
to get the test done or avoid getting tested. Providing the means for the test would help protect
the Town Hall and employees and eliminate possible hesitation to be tested for the disease when
needed. The Board was in favor of Supervisor Williams’ suggestion.

Under new business, Supervisor Williams explained that the PBR (Prep Baseball Report,
New York) was anxious to get started its baseball season, utilizing the Gutchess Lumber Sports
Complex. The PBR wanted assurance that the Town would not be imposing anything more than
what the State was already requiring as a result of COVID-19. Supervisor Williams read the
proposed resolution aloud, which the Board was in favor of.

Supervisor Williams recalled that the Board discussed the three potential water and sewer
projects at previous meetings and ultimately resolved to let out to bid for two of the three
projects that CHA completed design specifications for, including the Hillside Drive sewer repair
and the Lime Hollow well contact time project. The third project, which the Board decided to
postpone, was for the Route 281 water main extension. However, C HA suggested the Board
include the Route 281 water main extension as an alternate bid since the engineering was
complete and the Town may receive a lower bid on the project at this time. The Board would not
have to follow through and award the alternate bid. At the suggestion of CHA, which was
included in the information provided to the Board at the June 3, 2020 meeting, Supervisor
Williams asked the Board to amend the previously adopted resolution to let out to bid for the
“Miscellaneous Water and Sewer Improvements” to include the alternate bid option. There
would be no additional cost to the Town to include the alternate bid. The Board was in
agreement with the understanding that the alternate bid for the Route 281 water main extension
did not have to be awarded.
