Van De Bogart as a member on the following stand- ing committees : County Officers' Accounts Courts and Corrections Dog Quarantine Enforcement Equalization Laboratory and Blood Bank Purchasing Fire Protection After committee investigation Mr. Bower, Chairman of the Equalization Committee, presented the following report: "Nov 10, 1952 "Your Equalization Committee wishes to report on the ap- peal of Mr Scofield and Mr Payne to review the equalization rates for the towns of Lansing and Newfield "We find, after spot checking and appraising about 25 pieces of property in each town, assisted by the Chairman of Assessors from the Towns of Ulysses, Groton and Dryden, that we are entirely justified in keeping the Town of Lansing's equalization rate at 91 and the Town of Newfield's at 97 "In the spot checking we picked property at random To get a good cross-section we checked farms and old and new resi- dential property covering a large area in each town. "The most outstanding inequality or very low assessment we found in Lansing where we checked a piece of property now assessed at $21,500 It was appraised by us as being worth at least $100,000 and it should be assessed for 40 or November 10, 1952 223 50% of this figure _to be in line with similar property, as as- 'sessed in other towns in the county. "Assessments on much of the new residential property— of which we found a surprisingly large amount in both the towns of Newfield and Lansing—were in our estimation very low, decidedly so in Lansing. We found most property of this type assessed at only from $2,000 to $3,000 The average as- sessment per parcel, less franchises and utilities, in each town seems to be well under $2,000. This average includes farms—old and new residential, lots, etc. "In reviewing the assessments for the last eleven years, we found all the towns and city have had some increase in as- sessed valuation While it is admitted that Lansing has Lost more heavily in franchises and industrial property, we feel that the town is still very fortunate when compared with most other towns in the county who have no industrial property at all In fact, franchises, utilities and industrial property carry about 35% of the tax load in Lansing, and about 30% in the town of Newfield. "To show the sharp contrast of the overall assessed valua- tion increase from 1941 to 1952 we present the following fig- ures as calculated from several Proceedings of the Board and the 1952 tax rolls.

"After spending many hours, checking, appraising and do- ing research, and after carefully reviewing all the facts, we recommend that the following rates as being the percentage of assessed value to true value for 1953. Caroline 98% Danby 96% Dryden 98% Enfield 95% Groton 97% Ithaca -City 90% Ithaca -Town 99% Lansing 91% Newfield 97% Ulysses 98% CLIFFORD E. BOWER, Chairman" Mr. Bower moved that the above rates be the rates estab- lished for equalization purposes for the year 1953. Seconded by Mr. Downey. Discussion followed Vote was taken and motion carried. Mr 'Bower further made the following statement : "As a means to end all this dissatisfaction within the county, I would personally like to recommend again that some time in the near future we have every piece of property in the county appraised by experts I feel we could then be sure, with the cooperation of our assessors, that every town and the city are assessed at a rate equal in every respect, to its true value " Resolution No 141 Transfer from Contingent Fund Mr Downey offered the following resolution and moved its adoption : November 10, 1952 225 Resolved that there be and hereby is appropriated the sum of $2750 from the Contingent Fund, and be it further Resolved that the County Treasurer be authorized to trans- fer from the Contingent Fund to the following codes: 74-401A Lights (County Bldgs) $ 750. 20-120 (Supreme Court) 1800. 61B-400 Other Expenses (Co. Service Officer) 200. $2750. Seconded by Mr Gordon Carried. Mr. Downey, Chairman of the Finance Committee, inquired of the Budget Officer if the tentative Budget would be ready for filing with the Clerk on November 15th. Upon receiving an affirmative reply he moved that the public hearing be held at 10 a m. on November 25, 1952 Seconded by Mr Greenwood Carried. A recess was declared by the Chairman for the Finance and Civil Service and Salaries Committees to meet. Business resumed Mr. Scofield, Chairman of the Civil Service and Salaries Committee, commented regarding the letters from the Civil Service Association and the County Employees Association relative to proposed salary increases.

The Clerk read a letter from the County Civil Defense Direc- tor inviting supervisors to a senior wardens' meeting in the Court House this evening at 7 :30. The financial report of the Commissioners of Election with the apportionment of election expenses by the county and the several political subdivisions thereof was received and referred to the Committee on Town Officers' Accounts. Harry Gordon, Town of Ithaca supervisor, requested the floor to issue the following prepared statement • "Ever since the day the equalization rates were decided, I have been extremely disturbed at the ill will built up amongst the members of the Board of Supervisors. It is not the pur- pose of any of the members of the Board to create this feeling, for it is apparent that for at least ten months of the year harmony exists, but as soon as the question of equalization rates comes up then the trouble begins. "I feel that it is about time a concerted effort be made to avoid this unpleasantness. I have made enemies in my own town when I questioned some of the valuations, for I feel definitely there are inequities I have been beseiged at various times by school trustees and school tax collectors because of 232' November 17, 1952 the inequities within the town, and also when the school dis- trict extends into another town. "I am rather surprised that any one would question the idea of doing an honest and sincere job for the taxpayers. It has been stressed that it would cost at least $1 00 per $1,000 to pay for this reappraisal, and also that local people were able to make this survey. As for the cost, I think it is the cheapest price one can pay for goodwill within the board. "Now I don't mean expedient action, but genuine action, for I am tired of having some members point out to me some of the outstanding inequities within the Town of Ithaca. I know it and admit it, but I am wilting to rise or fall on my vote for this re -appraisal ; and I feel that with your permission and without being recriminating that the members of the board should take action on this re -appraisal proposition or cease criticizing the values of the Town of Ithaca. As to the ones to do the job I have no choice, but I will challenge the state- ment, unless proven unmistakably to the contrary, that local people could do as well or better. "In conclusion, I feel this re -appraisal must be done, if for one reason only, and that is that goodwill be returned within the Board and within the county." Mr. Broich, Chairman of the Town Officers' Accounts, submitted the following report of the committee relative to the report of the Commissioners of Election, pertaining to the election expenses and believes the same to be a true statement of the Election Expenses of the county for the year 1952. We recommend that the apportionment of Election Expenses for the current year, as made by the Election Commissioners be accepted and adopted by the Board, and that the several sums charged to the county, city and towns be assessed against, levied upon and collected from the taxable property of Tompkins County and the several towns and city therein as follows : County of Tompkins City of Ithaca Town of Carohne Town of Danby Town of Dryden $ 6,055.37 2,289 67 323.05 215 39 646.09 4 1 1 November 17, 1952 233 Town of Enfield Town of Groton Town of Ithaca Town of Lansing Town of Newfield Town of Ulysses Total of County Total for City Total for Towns Dated, November 17, 1952 215.37 430 73 . 430 73 430.73 215 39 323.05 $11,575 57 $ 6,055 37 2,289.67 3,230 53 $11,575.57 JACOB B.

Ten o'clock being the time advertised for the public hearing on the tentative budget the Chairman recessed the board meeting The public hearing attracted approximately twenty persons, including eight citizens of Indonesia, and Mr. Downey, Chair- man of the Finance Committee, submitted the following re- port: "Your Committee in studying this budget took into consid- eration the fine work accomplished by each departmental committee. Inasmuch as department heads were allowed to lower their requests to meet changes of the committee, this budget actually calls for about $70,000 less than was orig- inally requested, therefore our Committee has only made a few minor changes These will be pointed out in our report. "As the Budget Director reported, this budget represents a new high for Tompkins County. The total increase we are recommending amounts to $44,744 17 more than was adopted for 1952. "If this budget is adopted as presented it will mean a tax levy of approximately the same as last year. It is not as good as was hoped, inasmuch as we had an assessment increase of over $3,000,000. "Within a short time we will give you a report showing where this increased money will be spent Time did not permit us to have this ready in detail this morning." Following the minute reading of the budget an opportunity was given for' public expression of opinion.

Respectfully, Shenff, Tompkins County CLIFFORD C. HALL, Tompkins County, New York 409 REPORT OF COMMISSIONER OF PUBLIC WELFARE Chairman Stevenson and Members of the Board of Supervisors I herewith make my report as Commissioner of Public Welfare for the year 1952 We continued the repair program at the County Farm that we started in 1951 We changed some partitions and gave the Superintendent a private office, redecorated the living quarters, sanded and polished the two floors, all very much improving the quarters of the family Repainted the women's quarters and put on some new ceilings Put metal lath and tinted plaster on the walls of the men's quarters, repainted woodwork and ceilings, applied asphalt tile to the floor and therefore improved the men's quarters Had fire doors replace the windows at the fire escapes, had the fire doors in the wo- men's quarters rehung to swing out and have had panic exit bolts installed The metal roofs on 'the outbuildings and barn were painted with aluminum paint They look good and we feel the home and farm buildings are in good repair. We had to replace one boiler in the home and it is giving satisfaction - We are selling our milk and have had the stables white- washed and painted I believe from all estimates this should show a fine increase in income from the farm for 1953 A new milk cooler was installed and six milk cans had to be purchased We are milking 15 cows, have 2 bulls and 10 heifers growing At this time we have 19 pigs and about 250 laying hens There has had to be some necessary reorganization in the Department because of Mr Slade and Mrs D. L F. Brown having to retire because of age. We have employed one typist extra in the Accounting Department We have employed one experienced worker part-time and I am sure with this extra a better job of investigation can be made and in the end we will save money.

The operations of the Tompkins County Rescue Service were particularly noteworthy and a pic- ture of one of the teams operating in Johnson City appeared in the October 25th issue of the Bing- hamton Press A total of eighty-five volunteers from Tompkins County took part in this exercise 2. Operational Plans Twenty-four "OPERATIONAL PLANS" for the em- ployment of services or agencies in the Civil Defense or- ganization have been submitted to the New York State Civil Defense Commission for approval Sixteen have been approved, two are no longer required and six are awaiting action Two of the latter have been approved by area headquarters: Police and Public Works. Administrative, Legal and Staff annexes are in the process of preparation. All of these "Operational Plans" require constant revision Tompkins County, New York 417 due in part to changing personnel New directives, made necessary as the Civil Defense program progresses, are also an important factor requiring the constant revision of plans. 3. Road Signs During the month of December, through the coopera tion of the State Highway Department, five large dimen- sional signs were placed as follows : One, measuring 4' x 5' was placed at each of the three aid check points at Newfield, Danby and Dryden. Each of these signs read: 500 FEET AHEAD AID CHECK POINT NO (1, 2 or 3) (Civil Defense Insignia) ITHACA-TOMPKINS COUNTY CIVIL DEFENSE Two signs, each measuring 5' x 61/2' were placed on Highway 13 One at the boundary between Tompkins and Cortland Counties and one at the boundary between Tomp- kins and Schuyler Counties Each of these signs read • IN THE EVENT OF AN ENEMY ATTACK THIS HIGHWAY WILL BE CLOSED TO ALL TRAFFIC EXCEPT CIVIL DEFENSE, MILITARY .AND , CLEARED SUPPLY VEHICLES (Civil Defense Insignia) ITHACA-TOMPKINS COUNTY CIVIL DEFENSE 4. Training Planned for 1953 a. The unit training schedule covering the period January lst to May 31st 1953 is ,attached hereto and marked i 418 Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors Enclosure "C " During the above period Basic Warden, Police, Rescue, Self -Help and Neighbor Help to the In- jured, First Aid and Medical Aide's courses will be conducted. b The training planned for the Fall 1953, will include preparation for participation in the Binghamton Ex- ercise 5 Recruiting a. This is continuous and recruiting teams take advan- tage of group meetings to register personnel for Civil Defense b. "Dead wood" is being eliminated. c. The Director, the Director of Training and Recruiting, the Chief of the Warden Service and the Chief of the Aircraft Warning and Ground Observer Branch have appeared on numerous occasions before civic groups to increase interest in Civil Defense and to stimulate recruiting Among the organizations addressed were the Federated Women's Clubs, the Veterans of'Foreign Wars, Troop "4" Girl Scouts (Tiotomca District), Benevolent Protective Order of Elks, Loyal Order of Moose, various Parent -Teacher's Associations, Inter - fraternal Council (composed of representatives from thirteen fraternal groups), the Ministers' Association of Tompkins County, District Leaders Louis Agassiz Fuertes Council Boy Scouts of America, Post 12 Boy Scouts, Council of Social Agencies, Golden Age Club, Naval Reserve Officers, R 0 T C Staff at Cornell Uni- versity, Colored Masons, Colored Elks, the Machinists' Club and others Talks were made over Radio Station WHCU. 6. Communacattaons The Communications Division has secured a large school bus which has been remodeled for Civil Defense CommlZni- cation purposes It is fitted with bunks to enable two radio operators to sleep at one time and has cooking facilities to the extent of a two -burner bottled gas stove One com- plete side from the back of the driver's seat to the rear Tompkins County, New York ' 419, door is devoted to operation Five operators can work in this space at one time. , The bus is equipped with a telephone which can be "plugged in" at certain locations within the county, thus affording telephonic communication. A 110 -volt power supply is afforded by a motor mount- ed within the trunk. This bus will be the Net Control Station at the County Court House in_ test exercises and in the event of emer- gencies. •7. Rescue Equipment Because of a $2,400 appropriation by the County Board& of Supervisors for Rescue Equipment, the Civil Defense has been able to fully equip two Rescue teams and to par- tially equip two additional teams Cooperation of local - firms engaged in work using Rescue -type equipment is a great asset to the Rescue training. 8 Automatic Aad The following mobile teams constitute the automatic aid which Tompkins County is required to send to Bingham- ton without further instructions : 3 Mobile Feeding Teams 1 Clothing -Registration & Inquiry Team 1 Lodging -Emergency Aid Team 1 Welfare Center Management Team 1 Rescue Team 11 Public Works Teams The above teams are now trained except one Public Works Team which lacks equipment and are ready to per- form their automatic aid functions The following mobile teams constitute the aid which Tompkins County is required to maintain on a "stand-by" basis, awaiting instructions as to further employment : 4 420 Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors 6 Mobile Feeding Teams 2 Clothing -Registration and Inquiry Teams 2 Lodging -Emergency Aid Teams 2 Welfare Center Management Teams The above teams are being trained. Five mobile feeding teams lack the feeding equipment which they must have to accomplish their mission 1 In the event of an attack against Binghamton, all medi- cal personnel including doctors, dentists, pharmacists, veterinarians, nurses, nurses' aides, medical aides, messen- gers and clerks will proceed to Binghamton in their own transportation or otherwise, as individuals or small groups, regardless of any organization • 9. General The purchase of helmets, brassards, equipment for two Mobile Feeding Teams and the insurance and license fee for the Communications Bus during the coming year will add greatly to the morale and esprit de corps of those vol- unteers who so unstintingly give of their time and effort to the Civil Defense program 10. Recommendations a It.is urgently recommended that each county super- visor seriously concern himself with helping the Senior Warden in his area recruit more personnel for the Warden Service and assist the Ground Observer Corps in every possible way by rendering personal voluntary service and by securing volunteers In some communi- ties this is now being done and the results are most gratifying. b. It is further recommended that careful consideration be given the purchase of radio equipment for fire appar- atus Such purchases would be a substantial contribu- tion to Civil Defense.
