It is acute because, as you all know, the city already has had such an appraisal and of course because of the dissatisfaction caused by the new State tentative equalization rates We have tried in the last three years to gradually correct 30 February 2L 1955 equalization rates for the apportionment of county taxes so there would be" no drastic impact on any tax unit We admit we lacked the time and in some types of property, the ability to do a perfect job But we also lacked the cooperation of some assessors and the confidence of some tax units who questioned our ability to set fair equalization rates For all of these reasons and many more we now feel it is our responsibility to do all we can to straighten out the mess we find ourselves in During the last few months we have made a rather ex- haustive study of this proposed appraisal We have had much correspondence, many committee meetings and a personal interview with representatives from four different appraisal firms—The Thorne Appraisal Service—The Associated Ap- praisers—The Roy Wenzhck Co. and the Doane Agricultural Service With few exceptions, all the firms contacted follow pretty much the same procedure From the firms contacted, we have chosen and recommend the Doane Agricultural Service of St Louis, Mo , to do the job We feel they are the best qualified, due to their 35 years experience in this and related fields They have an excellent reputation and references They use trained experts to do the actual field work which is later reviewed by senior ap- praisers While not the lowest bid submitted, it is the lowest bid that meets the qualifications we desire We have in the nine towns about 12,000 properties to be appraised In addition, because we are recommending a firm other than those who appraised the city, we feel some prop- erties should be reappraised in the city, so that we are all sure our true values are comparable While we recognize the desirability of regular tax maps and have explored the need and feasibility of having them made in conjunction with the appraisal, we do not recom- mend them at this time, due to their excessive cost and the fact that most of our property is rural and will be plotted on government aerial photos anyway It is our understanding that if and when the proper legisla- tion (now in the hopper) is passed in Albany permitting the County to repay the city approximately $25,000, the amount I 1 February 21, 1956 31 they spent for an appraisal last year, that the entire cost will be a County expense We also understand that enough surplus money is available to pay the cost of the complete job and it will not reflect in an increase in taxes So that you may better understand the procedure, cost and all the other pertinent details of the proposal appraisal, here is the tentative contract as drawn up by our County Attor- ney and Mr Armand Adams, who is representing the Doane Company : (Summary of contract presented verbally ) We sincerely hope our reports and the resolution to fol- low meets with our approval If it does and is passed I think we should give serious thought to adopting some meth- od whereby we can keep our assessments equitable and up- to-date When we have accomplished this, along with our appraisal, we should have our assessment and equalization problems licked for some time to come CLIFFORD E BOWER, Chairman J HENRY HESLOP CARL VAIL CHARLES DOWNEY HARRY N GORDON EDWARD WALPOLE Committee Resolution No 36 Approval of Contract for Appraisal Mr Bower offered the following resolution and moved its adoption • WHEREAS, the Equalization Committee has proposed that the County cause all parcels of real properties, both taxable and exempt in the county outside of the City of Ithaca to be appraised, and after Interviewing and obtaining bids from sev- eral expert appraisers, has recommended the employment of Doane Agricultural Service, Incorporated of St Louis for this purpose at an overall bid price of $58,2'00, AND WHEREAS, the Committee has approved in sub- stance the terms of an agreement between the County and said corporation and recommends that this Boaid authorize the execution thereof, RESOLVED, that' the pioposed agreement between the County and Doane Agricultuial Service, Incorporated for the employment of said corporation to appraise the value of real property within the County outside the City of Ithaca, including 32 February 21, 1956 a spot check of properties in said city, at a bid price of $58,200, payable in installments as provided in said agreement, be and the same hereby is approved, and after the same shall have been reduced to writing in a form acceptable to the Equaliza- tion Committee and the County Attorney, that the Chairman of this Board be and he hereby is authorized and directed to execute the same on behalf of the county, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that theie be and hexeby is appropriated for the purposes aforesaid the sum of $58,200;

He believed that a comparison with a few pieces of city property would be helpful in giving a wider spread The question was thoroughly explored relative to the choice of the Doane Agricultural Service as against the firm em- ployed by the city Mr Conley questioned the advisability of voting on the resolution authorizing approval of the Doane firm until after a meeting of this Board as a whole He also stated that he believed that representatives of the city should be contacted in an endeavor to ascertain their reaction to employing a differ- ent firm than that employed by them Mr Conley then moved as an amendment that passage of the above resolution be deferred until the next meeting of the Board which should be held on Tuesday, February 22, at 10 AM Seconded by Mr Broich Mr Bower then advised the Board that his committee had February 21, 1955 33 already met with the following representatives from the city : Mayor Ivan Cook, City Attorney Ernest Dahmen, Superin- tendent of Public Works Frank Laverty, Council Member Kenneth Johnson, Alderman Robert Wilkinson and Truman Powers Mr Downey reported that in a recent letter which he had had published in the Ithaca Journal he had received no denials of the figures used and that in fact he had received a letter from Mr Laverty to the effect that his figures were correct.

zation rates or their equivalent, and this Board interprets the words "or their equivalent" as used by the Common Council to mean rates based upon the reappraisals made in the city in 1954 and now being made in the nine towns, BE IT RESOLVED that this Board, without conceding that the rates which it established in 1954 and either incorrect of inequitable, but believing that harmony and good will between the political units of Tompkins County are of paramount impor- tance, and in order to save the taxpayers of both the towns and the city the expense of a prolonged trial, hereby approves

year before, 1954, is shown by the statistics compiled for the Tompkins County Children's Court and Probation Depart- ment And as usual, this increased business'was handled by the same personnel in the two departments, the Clerk and Probation Officer, and the Assistant Clerk, that processed cases and collections for the last 18 years or more Requests for assistance by your reporting officer during that period of time, and last year by the County Judge and Judge of the Children's Court, have so far failed to increase the num- ber of workers needed in the two departments Last year there were 200 children's cases and 341 adult matters brought into the Children's Court against 215 child- ren's cases and 317 adult matters in 1954, the totals thus be- ing 541 as against 532 Support collections last year were the highest in the history of the Probation Department, amounting to $79,931 47, while in 1954 the total collected was $74,163 54 lAn increase of $5,767 93, is thus recorded The largest previous amount col- lected was in 1953 when $78,200 24 was obtained With restitution collections and Justice of the Peace courts support funds collected last year the Probation Department received and paid out to beneficiaries the total sum of $80,- 694 79 in 1955 In 1955 delinquency matters in the Children's Court 63 cases were processed in 1955 as against 58 in 1954 There was an increase of seven boys but a decrease of two girls involved in these cases, in 1955 there being 53 boys and 10, girls in Court while in 1954 there were 46 boys and 12 girls. 428 Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors Neglected children in Children's Court in 1955 numberea 42, with 23 boys and 19 girls, as against 52 cases in 1954 However in 1954 the Commissioner of Public Welfare came into Court with 45 matters in order to obtain formal custody of the children involved for the purpose of obtaining state refunds for maintenance costs, and these cases being "hold- over" matters from former years are not included in the 1954 statistics Due to the reduction of polio cases in 1955 in Tompkins County, physically handicapped children's matters brought to the Children's Court in 1955 also decreased as compared to the 1954 schedule The Court had petitions for 87 different orders in 1955 as against 105 in, 1954, the orders in 1955 calling for the expenditure of $39,476 38 as against $50,- 213 58 in 1954 Probation was used in more cases in the Children's Court in 1955 than in 1954 Last year a total of 33 children were placed on probation, 31 being boys and two girls, as against 27 in 1954, with 21 boys and six girls On Dec 31, 1955 there were 53 children on probation in Children's Court, and only six in institutions for whom the County during 1956 will have to reimburse the State for 50 percent of maintenance expens- es, an average of about $3,000 a child per year If probation services in Tompkins County were increased this year, it might be possible to supervise all delinquent children brought into Children's Court thus saving the County the expense of maintaining committed children in state institutions, a charge which the Commissioner of Public Welfare will be called on this year to pay over to the State The amount which the County will be asked by the State to pay each year for each child in a state institution would meet at least one-third of the expenses and salary of one probation officer on full time at present State standards. In view of the many services which a probation officer would give not only the Children's Court but the County Court and the various Justices of the Peace courts in Tompkins County, it would be sound economy to spend such funds on additional probation aid in the County Department rather than pay the State the maintenance costs for children in State institutions. The number of cases carried on the Probation Department records is about the same at the start of the new year 1956 as it was on January 1, 1955 To start last year there were 322 cases in the files On Dec 31, 1955 the year ended with 323 II Tompkins County, New York 429 cases marked as "active" To report that all these cases are being given proper supervision would be misleading, inasmuch as there is only one part-time Probation Officer attempting to supervise all these cases The usual standard for probation decrees that one probation officer supervise no more than 50 to 60 active cases at a time From the number now carried on the probation books, there is need for four more probation officers if this standard is to be followed It is therefore hoped that some assistance may be given the Probation De- partment this year The case load on Dec 31, 1954 was broken down into 282 cases in the Children's Court with 65 boys and 12 girls, 199 men and six women From the adults came the $79,931 47 in support payments, which relieved the County Welfare Depart- ment from paying over from public assistance funds a large share of such money to welfare recipients In this total is the sum of $5,483 86, which the Probation Officer collected and , paid over to the County Treasurer last year to reimburse the Welfare Department for assistance granted to relief families It is becoming the policy, however, for such funds to be paid directly to the needy family rather than as a reimbursement to the County, thus relieving the Welfare Department of as much clerical and accounting duties as possible in such cases The Probation Department is attempting to 'collect from 35 such cases for the Welfare Department On Dec 31, 1955 the case load of 323 total had 272 from the Children's Court with 47 boys, six girls, 216 men and three women , a total of 45 from the County Court and six from the various Justices of the Peace courts These figures show an increase of eight in the County Court for the year and three in the Justices of the Peace courts With additional probation help the Department could extend its services to the various Justices of the Peace courts throughout the County, which is not possible under the present part-time set-up No attempt is now being made to investigate any Justice of the Peace court matters and very little supervision of such probation cases can now be given During the last year, ,the State Examiner, Jean Long, has been informally investigating the services of the Probation Department, with the result that he has recommended to Judge Stagg a consolidation of the County and the City of Ithaca probation services with the addition of probation officers and clerical assistants in the County Department 430 Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors when consolidated This plan was filed with the Board of Supervisors by Judge Stagg in December and has been re- ferred to the Courts and Correction Committee for consider- ation and report to the Board Filing of this plan followed by a year a request of Judge Stagg sent to the Board on Nov 10, 1954, for assistance in the Probation Department, which was not acted upon by the Board during 1955 For many years, annual reports from your Probation Officer have asked for an assistant, who would be on a full-time basis, and not on a part- time plan which your present officer is forced to follow He hopes that something will be accomplished this year In last year's report one sentence reads • "It is the hope of the Proba- tion Officer that this present situation will result in a con- solidated probation department for both the County and the City, which would be by far the most efficient plan for the entire community".

By way of introduction I wish to point out that statistics with reference to the work of the District Attorney's Office do not give the complete picture of the work done in view of the fact that a great many complaints which come to my office, either directly or through the police, do not result in any formal prosecution Many of them, with the cooperation of other agencies of county government, are disposed of with- out the necessity of formal criminal prosecution I find that during the year 1955 the Grand Jury met in regular session three times and in special session once A total of 24 indictments were returned as against 30 in the previous year This does not include a number of cases which were con- sidered by the Grand Jury and no bill returned I tried three cases in County Court during the year 1955, two of which resulted in convictions and one acquittal I also tried five jury cases in Justice of the Peace Courts and ob- tained one conviction I have appeared on behalf of the People as their repre- sentative on six motions made by defense counsel and in three appeals in Justice of the Peace Court In addition to the foregoing I have tried two wayward minor cases and one case in Children's Court One appeal was taken to the Appellate Division by a convicted defendant in which I repre- sented the People During the year 1955 the Magistrates' Association of which I Tompkins County, New York 435 I am the elected secretary, has met approximately every other month This has resulted in the maintenance of the good re- lationship between this office and the various magistrates of the county and I have been called upon numerous times to advise them in criminal proceedings and to represent the People at arraignments in their courts In closing I might note the fact that for the second suc- cessive year I was invited by the Practicing Law Institute of New York to conduct a panel discussion on the Rural Prose- cutor in their summer course for prosecutors in New York City. 1 1 Yours truly,' Frederick B Bryant 436 Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors REPORT OF THE COUNTY SUPERINTENDENT OF HIGHWAYS 1955 To the, Board of Supervisors of Tompkins County .
