Chairman Bower read the following proclamation
PROCLAMATION
COUNTY OF TOMPKINS
LET'S ROLL BACK the calendar to the year Eighteen Hundred
Seventeen — one hundred fifty years ago Visualize, if you can, a stately
group of serious-minded legislators representing forty-nine counties in
the State of New York Before them at this fortieth session of the legis-
lature lays the grave consideration of forming the fiftieth county in the
state
In the minds of these legislators exists serious reservations as to the
feasibility of forming this new county The exact boundaries to be estab-
lished, the location of a county seat, the financing of the erection of a
new court house and gaol (jail) , the division of monies between the
original counties and the new county, the formation of new towns —
these are but a few of the many pertinent questions to be solved at this
session
On April 7, 1817, the legislators solved these questions by passing "AN
ACT to divide the counties of Seneca and Cayuga, and for other pur-
poses" This act provided that part of the counties of Seneca and Cayuga
was to be one separate county, to be called and known by the name of
Tompkins The success or failure of this new venture, however, depend-
ed upon the ability of the inhabitants to raise the vast sum of Seven
Thousand Dollars with which to build a new court house and gaol. The
Act further provided that failure to do so by the first day of May would
result in the county being reannexed to the original counties to which
it formerly belonged
Time was of the essence But, as is true today, Tompkins County in-
habitants did not fail By voluntary subscription, several "freeholders"
and inhabitants offered to build a suitable court house and gaol in the
Village of Ithaca which was then located in the Town of Ulysses These
civic -minded citizens were determined to carry out successfully their
well-founded plans — a county of their own, a new court house and gaol,
representation in the Assembly and Senate Through their foresight,
generosity and dedication, the Fiftieth County of the State came into
being and became known as Tompkins County New towns were formed
and the Village of Ithaca became the county seat — later to become a
city Dreams became reality
62 April 10, 1967
Tompkins County grew and it is still growing Today, dedicated citi-
zens with the same sort of foresight as our ancestors are planning for
the continued growth and prosperity of Tompkins County,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED
In recognition of One Hundred Fifty Years continued growth and pros-
perity in Tompkins County, and in honor of our ancestors who so nobly
gave of their efforts and monies in order that this county might be
formed, I, CLIFFORD E BOWER, Chairman of the Board of Super-
visors of the County of Tompkins, State of New York, DO HEREBY

At the request of Mr Cortright, Chairman of the Welfare Committee,
the Clerk read the following "Special Report on Medicaid" as submitted
to the Board by Commissioner Armitage
This quarterly report is submitted to you because of specific concerns
which I believe should be formally brought to your attention
As of May 1, 1967, 8,000 individuals in Tompkins County have met
requirements for Medicaid eligibility Payments by this Department for
medical services under Medicaid during the first quarter of 1967 totaled
$408,970 (the same period last year totaled $222,137)
If the current trend continues, the $2,000,000 budgeted to meet 1967
Medicaid expenditures will be far from sufficient Three major factors
are responsible for this trend They are
1 A continuing increase in the number of people who are requesting
payment of their medical bills and are eligible under existing New
York State Law.
2 Rapid increases in the fees and rates paid to practitioners and in-
stitutions rendering medical services
3 The inclusion of Medical Services under the program which were
previously the financial responsibility of other county and/or
state departments and institutions Several of these are now on the
"drawing boards" to be released shortly They include fees for
services of the county laboratory, fees for the services of public
health nurses rendering bedside nursing care to patients in their
homes, and fees for psychiatric care of patients served by the
Mental Health Clinic
Based upon the present trend, it is likely that Medicaid expendi-
tures will exceed $3,000,000 this year — the maximum predicted at
budget time last August, based upon information available at that
time
May 8, 1967 73
We now have a sufficiently stabilized trend to predict the percentages
of local, state and federal cost participation Our actual monthly federal
reimbursement claims from June 1966 through March 1967 have gradu-
ally decreased from 48 8% to 35 1% of the total monthly costs, whereas
state and local costs (which share equally) have gradually increased from
25 6% to 32 4% This change results primarily from the increasing
number of individuals between the ages of 21 - 65 who are receiving
medical benefits under the program and for whom there is no allow-
able Federal reimbursement under federal law Without change in exist-
ing legislation, I would expect the loal cost of the program this year to
be one-third of the total Any dollar or percentage figures in this report
are for medical expenditures only They do not include any administra-
tive, or public assistance costs.
Twenty-eight states have now legislated Medicaid programs However,
no other state has, as yet, set allowable income standards for eligibility
as high as New York State ($6,000 for a family of four)
I believe that the federal government will set limits (allowable in-
come and resources) when a formula generally acceptable to all states
can be legislated I beheve that this formula will not allow eligibility for
many people presently taking advantage of the program in New York
State
I am greatly concerned that many families who are presently eligible
may assume other long-term financial obligations in the belief that the
government will continue to pay their medical bills If they do and if they
become ineligible later on, they may find that they will be less able
to meet the medical needs of their families than they were before the
Medicaid program became available to them
Fortunately, very few families have dropped their private health in-
surance plans in Tompkins County I hope that this trend continues
until we actually know where we are going with the public health in-
surance program — Medicaid
Mr Updike, Chairman of the County Officers Accounts Committee,
submitted the following report relative to the mortgage tax monies re-
ceived for the period October 1, 1966 thru Mai ch 31, 1967, and the
allocation thereof

Lansing 7,076 38
Newfield 468 74
Ulysses 1,892 69 $32,556 89
74 May 8, 1967
Your committee finds that of the amount of $3,606 56 to which the
Town of Dryden is entitled there should be paid to the incorporated
Village of Dryden the sum of $283 03, and to the incorporated Village
of Freeville the sum of $75 74, of the amount of $1,457 38 to which the
Town of Groton is entitled there should be paid to the incorporated
Village of Groton the sum of $342 48, of the amount of $7,193 12 to
which the Town of Ithaca is entitled there should be paid to the incorpo-
rated Village of Cayuga Heights the sum of $1,445 82, and of the amount
of $1,892 69 to which the Town of Ulysses is entitled there should be
paid to the incoiporated Village of Trumansburg the sum of $323 08
Your committee therefore recommends the adoption of a resolution to be
presented later in the meeting

Under unfinished business, Mi Keir questioned what clecision was to
be made regarding the Public Safety Building In his opinion, some
questions must be considered such as space needs, purchase of Ithaca
College property, the possibility of renovating the Court House and Jail,
and the preservation of the old Court House To date, these questions
have not been answered but should be, and as the city is definitely a part
of the county, a definite clecision should be reached on whether the joint
Public Safety Building is to be consti ucted
Mr Sullivan, Buildings and Grounds, stated he felt the decision on the
Public Safety Building had been made, not formally but effectively, due
84 May 22, 1967
to the fact the people that are going to use it do not seem in favor of the
joint project The project would cost in the neighborhood of $800,000,
and in his opinion, if the Chief of Police and Sheriff are opposed to it,
perhaps the first step would be to get the people together before con-
structing a building.
Mr. Culligan was of the opinion that a decision should have been
made prior to the city building their new fire house in order that the
facility might have been incorporated with that Mrs Hoefer expressed
her desire for some definite facts and figures regarding the future
planning and space before a decision is made in order that the members
might vote more intelligently on this subject Mr Leary reminded the
supervisors that the city was inteiested in getting a decision as soon as
possible from the board
It was suggested by Mr Abbott that this matter be put on the agenda
for our June 12th meeting A lengthy discussion followed in which Mr
Cortright noted that facts and figures were available and he saw no
reason to delay the decision The city made the decision to dismantle
their police facility We should look at our facility from the county
point of view as to what our county needs are as far as the cost of
renovating the present jail building He felt there was no need for the
county to spend the amount of money proposed for a joint facility Mr.
Sullivan noted that necessary repairs to the windows, plumbing and
other things would run appioximately $50,000
After further discussion, it was agreed the matter be placed on the
agenda for the June 12th meeting
On motion, meeting adjourned

Seconded by Mr Abbott
Supervisor Sullivan gave a resume of the work done by the Special
Study Committee and restated he favored a joint facility but believed
the recent opposition of the chief personnel involved made it unfeasible
to expend monies for building the joint facility at the present time
District Attorney Thaler, at the request of Supervisor Culligan a mem-
ber of the Buildings and Grounds Committee, strongly urged the super-
visors to vote in favor of the joint facility stressing the need and im-
portance of a soundproof interrogation room as well as proper deten-
tion quarters for juveniles and women
Supeivisor Hoefer pointed out the lack of sufficient information con-
cerning a solution to the expansion of county office space stating al-
though she favored a joint facility, she also favored the retention of the
old court house as a historical asset to the city She suggested the possi-
bility of renovating the jail for use as additional county office space and
locating the Public Safety Building in a more suitable site with ample
parking facilities
Supervisor Cortright, speaking in opposition to the joint facility, said
in his opinion if and when a County Police Department was established
that would be the time for building a new police facility Presently, Ike
have adequate space for county use at the jail
Supervisors Kerr, Abbott, and Graves spoke in favor of the joint facil-
ity with Supervisor Kerr noting, in his opinion, the board should go on
record as favoring the joint facility but he questioned the site foi the
facility He also questioned the possibility of purchasing the Ithaca Col-
lege property Mr Sullivan re -read the letter from Ithaca College which
quoted the approximate price of $500,000 for the properties in the
DeWitt Park area He noted a previous quote had been received for
approximately $425,000 and since that time the corner property had been
sold
Supervisor Leary spoke at length in favor of the facility noting the
present and past cooperation on various projects between the city and
the county and the definite need for this cooperation now
Mr Stainton, President of the DeWitt Historical Society, was
June 12, 1967 95
granted permission of the floor and stated although he was in favor of
the joint facility in principal, he also favored retaining the old court
house as a historical asset to the community.

the State Police for the entire state

Mr Holden, Highway, announced that bids were opened on bitumin-
ous material and stone and noted that there was an increase in price of
both He also announced that plans were underway for the formal open-
ing of the new highway barn to be held either the 9th or 16th of July
Mr Dates, Finance, reporting on the meeting of the Finance Commit-
tee together with the Common Council concerning the county sales
tax, stated that Mr Kerr, as spokesman for the county, presented the
background information on the sales tax very well However, the
Common Council, after this meeting, did vote to obtain their share of
the county sales tax On June 25 at an unauthorized and informal
meeting, several members of the Finance Committee met with city
officials on this subject The city officials now have had a chance to
think things through and will be doing further research as I am sure the
Finance Committee of the Board of Supervisors will also be doing
Therefore, we hope a motion to repeal the county sales tax will not come
before the board for consideration this morning
Mr Cortright, Special Library Committee, in discussing a contract
with the State Library Administrative Agency requested the Chairman
to delay signing this contract due to specific stipulations in the agree-
ment which states that construction must start 90 days following the
signing of this agreement Bids will be opened on library construction
July 11 However, a resolution will be presented this morning authoriz-
ing the Chairman to execute said contracts He also reported that
several contractors are participating as far as picking up bids and speci-
fications for the construction of the library which would indicate
competitive bids will be received Mr Leary remarked that the neighbors
adjacent to the library site were very pleased now that the dirt had been
removed
Mr Sulhvan, Buildings and Giounds, repotted on a tour of the Ithaca
College properties adjacent to DeWitt Park and stated that the majority
of the committee were in agreement at this time for this price ($500,000)
they were not interested in making an offer to purchase said property
However, he urged if any members of the board were not in agreement
with this decision that they tour the buildings before considering an
offer Mr Sullivan also noted some time ago a survey company indicated
interest in surveying space needs for the county which would cost about
$10,000 The committee is still not interested at this cost Also, the front
doors of the Court House are not working properly and as the company
from whom the doors were originally purchased are now out of busi-
ness, we have been unable to find anyone to repair them The replace-
ment cost of the doors is approximately $3700 The committee asks
approval of the board to let bids for the replacement of these doors
with aluminum doors It was suggested and agreed that the committee
proceed with this with the stipulation that they consult an architect

Mrs Hoefer, Health, scheduled a meeting for June 29th at 7 30 p m
Chairman Bower declared a short recess at 10 10 and business re-
sumed at 10 35
Under privilege of the floor John Clynes, Jr , Alderman of the 1st
Ward of the City, appeared before the board on behalf of the special
committee designated by the Common Council to represent the Council
and work with the Boaid of Supervisors on any action regarding the sales
tax The three-man committee is compiised of Alderman Stallman, Con-
troller Russell and Mr Clynes He noted that one of the main consider-
ations for action taken by the city on the sales tax was the time element
for the implementation of the tax He also stated that he felt sure the
figures presented were not satisfactory to many officials either pro or con
on this action The joint committee work started in an informal manner
on Sunday when several membeis of the Board of Supervisors weie
invited to a meeting in the Council Rooms at which time thiee members
of the Mayor's Advisory Committee were briefed and after discussion
agreed to forward a recommendation to the Mayor requesting the Coun-
cil take immediate action to rescind the City Sales Tax Law It was felt
the meeting was very fruitful and many things came to light that the
persons present were not aware of prior to the action taken by the city
However, Alderman Clynes urged the Board not to take any action on
any of the joint county -city projects which might be misconstrued and
might be considered retaliation This, in his opinion, would have a
negative affect on county -city coopeiation He assured the Board that
the three-man committee stood ieady to work with representatives of the
Board of Supervisors
At this time First Ward Supervisor Graves took this opportunity to
reply to a statement made by Fifth Ward Alderman Frank C Baldwin
which was published in the Ithaca Journal "As long as I was taken to
task, I would like to take this opportunity to reply to Mr Baldwin's
statement which referred to me as stupid and irresponsible If he had had
the foresight to protest at the start the city would not have the beatniks,
hippies, hot dogs, dope addicts, pushers and protesters against the
United States that it now has He can work with his kind of people but
I will stick with my kind of people "
Mr Harry Gordon, former supervisor, at this time noted he would
like to speak on various points on the sales tax whenever it came on
the floor
Supervisor Kerr speaking on the city's action to enact a sales tax
without a public hearing noted that every action has a reaction and that
although most of us think it is unwise—to react would be irresponsible at
the present time He felt it wise to give the city an opportunity to re-
peal the tax However, according to the State Law which states how the
102 June 26, 1967
tax is to be implemented, there is nothing to negotiate regarding the
Sales Tax When one of the units of government acts independently then
the State Law reacts and other units of government are also cut in
If this were to happen, it would defeat the purpose of the tax relief
He noted there were many items in which negotiations could be bene-
ficial to the city and towns of the county, i e , water, sewer, welfare,
health, hospital, library, uniform equalization rates and the county -wide
assessing department In Mr Kerr's opinion, what is really at stake is not
a tax as a way of raising money but much more important is the co-
operation between city and county government
At this time, Chairman Bower requested the Clerk to read the letters
received by her pertaining to the sales tax The Clerk read a letter from
George Blean, City Clerk, which stated 1) The Common Council
approved a Local Law which exercises the city's prior right to partici-
pate up to 50 per cent in the distribution of the present county sales
tax which is collected in the City of Ithaca, 2) members of the Council
indicated their desire to negotiate with the Board of Supervisors prior
to the effective date of March 1, 1968, and 3) the Common Council
requested that the reconsideration of the county -city joint police build-
ing be tabled pending further negotiations between the city and the
county
The Clerk also read a letter from Myron Stanton, Chairman of the
Mayor's Advisory Committee, noting that a three-man committee had
been appointed to study and investigate the local city tax law The
Special Committee is Michael LoPinto, Robert Burns and Thomas
Mackesey who, after meeting with members of the Board of Supervisors
and City Officials, will draw a resolution recommending that the Com-
mon Council take immediate action to rescind the City of Ithaca Sales
Tax Law He iequested the Boaid to postpone any hasty action that
would be detiimental to city and county ielations
MOVED by Mr Updike, seconded by Mr Holden, That resolutions
pertaining to change in grade classification and fixing of summer hours,
not on the agenda, be considered at this meeting Carried

Seconded by Mr Cortright Discussion followed and it was pointed out
by Mr Miller and Mr Turner that although the price exceeded the
estimated cost, it represented a fair price for the work to be done and
this project was mainly to enlarge the area for general aviation thus
enabling the aircraft carrier to use one section of the area and larger
aircraft to use the other section Carried

Mr Cortright requested Mr Kell to present to the Board the plan of
financing the committee recommends as a workable plan in order to pro-
ceed with the construction of the library
Mr Kerr, acknowledging the library is an Important community proj-
ect, noted the previous agreement for financing was not workable and it
would be impossible for the Library Association to successfully conduct
a fund drive for $500,000 clue to the time element involved In his
opinion, the construction of the libiary is an obligation the county
should meet To meet this obligation, Mr Kerr suggested, if necessary,
the additional monies be f,nanced ovei a 10-20 year period, the county
be the sole ownei thus establishing a chartered library, and the Library
Association turn ovei all ssets and trust funds to the county In other
words, the county would have full iesponsibility and the Library Associa-
tion would have no responsibility or authority In order to do this, a two -
weeks extension must be requested from the bidders to allow the Cornell
Library Association to comply with requnements foi dissolving the Asso-
ciation and tut nurg ovei their funds and assets to the county
A lengthy question and answer period followed in which officers of
the Cornell Libraiy Association participated in an effort to clarify all
details regarding iesponsibility and financing to enable the Board to
arrive at a definite decision Mr James Buyoucos polled the members
of the Cornell Library Association and it was unanimously agreed they
would conduct a fund drive to reimburse the county $89,000 and also,
they were all in lavoi of a chartered county library Mr Buyoucos briefly
outlined the procedures to be followed to accomplish this, i e , 1) Ma-
jority of Board of Supervisors approve the foi matron of a County Public
Library and 2) Majority of Board of Tiustees Note to transfer assets of
Association to the County Public Libraiy subject to approval of the
Board of Regents
The members of the Special Library Committee individually urged
the Board to act favorably on the resolution to be presented which
would appropriate additional monies and establish a county -owned

EXCUSED Supervisors Cortiight, Kerr, Griffin, and Culligan — 4
Members and guests, at this time, participated in the Pledge of
Allegiance to the Flag
The Board, at the suggestion of Chan man Bower, unanimously agreed
to waive the rules of the board, i e , Rule VIII, Subd 8 — Rules of
Voting, for the remainder of the year to allow Supervisor Howell to vote
next to last rather than first on the roll call
At this time, Mr Bower turned the meeting over to Mr Abbott,
Chairman of the Civil Service and Salaries Committee, to explain to the
board the proposal for the total employee benefit package for the year
1968 as recommended by the Civil Service and Salaries Committee, the
August 28, 1967 143
Tompkins County Civil Seivice Employees Association and twelve de-
partment heads of the county.
Mr Abbott noted that the benefit package consisted of three major
items
1 Retirement, 2 Salaries, 3 Hours
He also noted that all figures were based on the total 1966 salaries
In explaining the retirement, he noted the present cost to the county
was 13 923 per cent or a total of $256,684 However, approximately
$102,000 of this amount was a deficiency rate which is now paid up
At the present time approximately 430 employees are on retirement and
approximately 400 are not retirement members
He explained the three i etirement plans noting that both the five
per cent and eight per cent increase take home pay plan gave no addi-
tional benefits to the employees other than what the present retirement
plan offers In these plans, employees in the competitive and noncom-
petitive class are mandated to contribute while employees in other
classes may contribute The "1/60th Plan," which is the plan recom-
mended by the committee, would cost the county 7 6 per cent for a total
of $534,789, which figure would cover all employees In addition, the
]/60th Plan provides many additional benefits such as 1) All full time
employees would be covered, 2) All retirement would be based on the
55 -year plan, 3) Death Benefits would be increased by one year's salary,
4) Retirement is based on all service time since April 1, 1960, 5) Cost
of living increase is available to retirees, and 6) The Sheriff's Depart-
ment Employees would pay only the difference between the 1/60th
Plan and the compulsory Sheriff Depai tment Plan In addition to these
benefits, due to the fiscal year running from April 1 - March 31, the
county, if this plan is adopted, would pick up all retirement contribu-
tions effective immediately with the employees next pay check
The committee recommendation iegarchng salaries was that all grades
be increased by three per cent across the board based on the 1967
Salary Schedule which would mean a total additional cost to the county
of approximately $100,273 Along with this, merit increments would be
ehminated for this year only and all employees would remain in the same
grade and at the same step of the grade as they have been for the year
1967 This three per cent increase would affect all employees with the
exception of the elected officials and those employees hired under con-
tract
It was also recommended by the committee effective September 1, 1967,
all employees would revert to the hourly schedule they observed for
1966 The committee also gave assurance that a study of the discrep-
144 August 28, 1967
ancy in departmental hours would receive top priority and it was recom-
mended that no increase in summer hours for 1968 be allowed
During the question and answer peiiocl it was brought out that a
large poi tion of the increased cost would be borne by the hospital due
to the number of employees hired by them and this did not necessarily
mean an increase in rates However, this would have to be deteimined
by the Board of Manageis in pieparmg their budget It was also pointed
out the approximate additional cost, including the entire package, for
the 1968 budget would be cuound $400,000
At this time, Mr Graves called for the question and Attorney Wil-
liamson was instructed to prepare a resolution incorporating the com-
plete salary and wage proposal for 1967 and 1968

Discussion followed and Mr Kerr explained that the only duty of the
Board of Trustees at the present time is to meet within thirty days to
apply for the charter Normally they would make up the budget but
due to the budget deadlines for this year this duty will be handled
by the Special Library Committee He announced that as plans stand
now we will be moving into the new library approximately one year
from this date but the county will take over all budgetary items effectilie
January 1, 1968 and the new Boaid of Trustees will be functioning at
the Sons of Italy Building until the new library is ready for occupancy
Several supervisors voiced their feelings concerning the residence of all
persons placed in nomination for the position of trustee being Located
either in the Town of Ithaca or City of Ithaca Mr Keir pointed out
that the persons nominated were all dedicated citizens interested in the
new library facility having been affiliated with the Finger Lakes Library
Association and/or Cornell Public Library, and that persons outside the
town and city had been contacted but were unable to serve
There being no further nominations it was MOVED by Mr Keir,
seconded by Mr Giaves, That the above named nominees be appointed
as members of the County Library Board of Trustees By voice vote the
Motion was Carried and Chairman Bower declared them members of
the County Library Board of Trustees
Mr Dates mtioduced Dr Broad and Mi Liguori who appeared before
the board to update the problem of refuse disposal This problem is
prevalent throughout the county and in a short time will be a problem
in the city The main problem at the present time is at the Collins
Dump Mr Liguori explained that even though application has been
made with the State Department, funds for this program are neaily
exhausted for this year and it is possible ours will not begin until May
1, 1968, therefore, the report will not be available until the end of
next year This is the lepoit needed to operate sewer sites in the county
Mr Collins has aiianged to obtain additional fill at his own expense
but is reluctant to employ a full time attendant or to increase his rates
to his customers It was pointed out that Mr Collins has suggested a
possibility of leasing his pioperty to the county for a county operated
refuse disposal site However, Mr Cortright noted the site would be
worth only about five years and was not a site that would be used
in the long-range planning for the county It was, however, intimated
that in the not so distant future the county might be requested to
appropriate monies for the operation of a county dump This report
October 9, 1967 173
was given by Dr Broad and Mr Liguori strictly on an informational
basis with the hopes that perhaps some answer might be found to this
serious problem
Chairman Bower thanked both Dr Broad and Mr Liguori for up-
dating the board on this matter

Various committee chairmen repoi ted as follows
Mr Culligan, Purchasing, announced bids had been opened for health
department cars and a resolution would be forthcoming
Mr Holden, Education, noted the Board of Trustees of the Com-
munity College had notified him of their request for the county to
adopt Plan C as the financial plan for the college He requested a brief
recess with the Finance Committee to discuss this before presenting the
resolution to the board
Mr Dates, Airport, announced the FAA would be making their final
inspection of the improvements at the airport and he invited the Super-
visors to attend on Wednesday morning, as he felt this was a great im-
provement at the airport He also announced, as chairman of the
Finance Committee, that a meeting would be scheduled in the near fu-
ture to meet with the Budget Officer to finalize all budget figures
Mr Cortright, Social Services, noted the letter from the Citizens Com-
mittee had been read for information only but felt the board should

was agreed that Mr Cortright schedule a time, other than a regular
meeting date, and notify the board so that those interested may attend
Also, Mr Cortright requested permission to advertise for bids for the

October 9, 1967 175
objections being heard, Chairman Bower authorized Mr Cortright to
proceed with the notice to bidders
Mr Kerr, Special Library, explained the necessity of employing a
clerk -of -the -works and/or inspector to supervise the construction of the
library He was given permission to work out the details with the Civil
Service and Salaries Committee Also, at the County Treasurer's recom-
mendation, Mr Kerr felt a bond resolution for the library construction
for 1 million dollars should be adopted rather than expend money from
the surplus fund as bills are aheady coming in for payment and there
will be a lapse of time before receiving the state and federal funds that
are available It was agreed the County Attorney should draw up this
resolution for the October 23rd meeting
At this time, Mr Dates as chairman of the Finance Committee, ques-
tioned the Special Library Committee as to the actual take-over date
on the library noting he had not understood it to be definitely set for
January 1, 1968 It was noted both by Mr Kerr and Mr Cortright that
the county would be taking over the finances of the library as of January
1, 1968 due to the fact the county was in the process of applying for its
charter following the appointment of the trustees and upon approval of
the charter the Cornell Library Association would no longer have any
funds with which to operate Therefore, the special library committee
was preparing the library budget for 1968 to be included in the county's
budget It was estimated that it would be approximately $55,000 in ex-
cess of the amount appropriated to the Cornell Library for 1967
Mr Kerr, Chairman of the Equalization Committee, submitted the
following report relative to the valuation of the 1967 Special Franchises
of Tompkins County outside of the City of Ithaca as reported by the
several town assessors in the proper part of their respective assessment
rolls (Section 616 of the Real Property Tax Law)

Questioned by Mr Culligan, Mr Abbott stated they may now begin

tion Carried
At this time, Mr Abbott asked for legal interpretation regarding re-
consideration at a later date on airconditioning the Court House County
Attorney Williamson read the motion as presented last meeting and
ruled this could be brought on the floor at any time during the year
with another form of financing as the defeated motion was only to place
the money for same in the 1968 Budget
Mr Marcham, newly elected supervisor of the Fifth Ward of the City,
asked permission to speak from the floor and questioned if provision
had been made for a discussion between the Committee in charge of
the Planning Department and City Planners before the County begins
interviews for personnel in this department Mr Abbott explained that
four positions had been created and that a meeting with city and other
municipalities will be called and the Board of Supervisors would then
set up the policy The four positions created are for the purpose of get-
ting the department started

tor Robert Bush to explain the tentative plan to the board members

and installing more counter space This would take in the room now
used as the Mail Room By enlarging the present facility it would es-
tablish a traffic pattern, would allow space to install in 1969 IBM Tele-
processing Terminal Equipment, and, overall, would facilitate a more

of more counter space to facilitate a mote efficient operation and instal-
lation of new equipment
The main reasons for this conversion are
1 New York State regulation of mandatory eye test on all operator
license renewals (Approximately 2500 per month for seven months of
each year )
2 The establishment of a tiaffic pattern, which will be controlled by
separate entrance and exit, to ease confusion at peak times
3 Future installation (Januaiy 1969 -March 1969) of I B M Tele-

Mr Graves gave the following brief history of the committee's work
to date.
Began meeting in April 1964 with Ralph Fuller as Chairman Ten or
more fact-finding meetings were held with various people in the area
including Barry Lorch, New York State Civil Service, Fred Weinstein,
City Comptroller, John Mulroy, Onondaga County Executive, John
Honan, Purchasing Agent for Onondaga County, Dr Ed Lutz, Cornell,
Mrs DeWire, League of Women Voters, Don Stobbs, County Treasurer,
John Gridley, Chairman, Board of Supervisors of Chemung County and
representatives from the school district and the Ithaca Board of Educa-
tion in addition to visiting other counties Overall information is what
we were after
At our August 17, 1967 meeting, it was unanimously agreed by the
committee that instead of a piecemeal approach to county government
that we would proceed immediately with a study of the County Charter
Form of Government Six meetings later along with volumes of informa-
tion on various county charters and a five-hour session with Mr Spanier,
Vice -President of C W Robinson Co , Inc , a majority of the committee
decided upon this resolution
We felt that to proceed much data and evaluation of our present
governmental structure should be gathered to fully understand the overall
picture This we felt was too large a task for our committee to undertake
and do justice to it The magnitude of a County Charter preparation is
tremendous We are fully aware that parts of lother charters could be
pirated and compiled as our own along with the Administrative Code
Rather than copy other charters or parts thereof) it was felt that any form
of government should be tailored to the specific needs of Tompkins
County
Some of the reasons for proceeding are reapportionment, a more busi-
ness like approach to the operation of a 131/2 million dollar business,
better direction in all departments such as purchasing, planning, assess-
ing, day to day operation, budgetary policy, more home rule, jury sys-
tem, etc
All of you received this proposal to study last week We will try to
answer your questions
December 11, 1967 299
We felt instead of a special referendum we would try to have it on the
ballot in November 1968 Presidential Election The seasons were that
the cost of special referendums aie quite expensive and Presidential
Election would bring out quite a few more voters to make the final
decision
Discussion and a question and answer period followed at which time
both Messrs Bower and Dates stated they were not opposed but felt per-
haps a local committee could be hned to do the job at less money
A voice vote resulted in the resolution being Unanimously Carried
On Motion, meeting adjourned

dressed to the Board of Supervisors from the County Ambulance Service,
which letter was refereed to the Health Committee for study and review,
he noted the committee was making no decision However, it was the
opinion of the committee after study of said proposals that there is a great

fine
Mr Graves, Administrative Study Committee, invited any inteiested
Supervisor to attend the afternoon meeting which had been scheduled
for Mr Spanier to meet with department heads
Under privilege of the floor, Mr Graves introduced Mr Donald
Spanier, Vice -President of C W Robinson Company, Inc , who in turn
introduced to the Board Mr Rodman DeKay, Jr , Executive Consultant
of said firm and Mr David O'Brien, Legal Advisor Mr Spanner briefly
acquainted the Board with the manner in which the survey for the study
of a proposed charter would be conducted by them Commencing Janu-
ary 2, the company will send to Tompkins County a group of trained
personnel to conduct this survey
The role the Board of Supervisors play in this process starts with the
suggested first important step of establishing and appointing within the
next month or so a Charter Commission comprised of 12 or 15 members
that may include the present membership of the Administrative Study
Committee together with representatives from inteiested groups such as
the League of Women Voters, Grange, Chamber of Commerce, and Cor-
nell University Secondly, basic policy recommendations will be made to
the Board by the Charter Commission which the Board must carefully
consider and evaluate as the process progresses Finally, the Board will
enact and advocate a chai ter that, in their opinion, best suits the needs
and modernizes the administrative practices of the county government,
which charter will be presented to the voters in the fall
The role of the Charter Commission will be to spend an enormous
amount of time evaluating each issue and recommending to the board
the draft proposal they feel is sound, practical, effective and economical
for this particular county As each issue is studied, the Commission must
educate the public and all persons concerned with these issues, in order
to assure a general understanding and acceptance of their final findings
and conclusions The Commission, with the advice of the Management
Consultants and Legal Advisor, will draft and Iprepare the charter and
the administrative code that will be presented to the Board for their final
consideration and modification
The role of the C W Robinson firm is not to write the charter and the
actministrative code for the county but to conduct research on present
administrative practices, gather facts on other counties of comparable
size, advise and assist the Commission in the preparation of a properly
December 11, 1967 303
written document to be presented to the Board of Supervisors for study,
review and final enactment Stress was placed on the importance of co-
operation from department heads, key personnel and the Board of
Supervisors to arrive at an end product that will be accepted by the
voters of the county
Chairman Bower thanked Mr Spanner for the detailed information he
had presented to the members of the board

COUNTY HISTORIAN
Submitted by W Glenn Norris
(Detailed report on file in Office of Clerk of Board of Supeivisors)
One hundred and fifty years ago a group of public spirited citizens
decided that a new county was needed for the convenience of the people
of this region In response to a petition the State Legislature passed an
act April 7, 1817, setting up and naming the new county but with cer-
tain conditional terms under which the county was to be created The
teims of the act weie fully met within one year, when the commissioners
appointed to carry out the terms, raised Seven Thousand dollars with
which to build a county building — the county's first courthouse
It was a simple wooden building facing DeWitt Palk with a square
bell tower in the southeast corner
Gen Simeon DeWitt, Surveyor -General of the State, donated the land
to the new county It is the same plot of ground now occupied by the Old
Courthouse, elected in 1854 and still standing General DeVTitt at the
time was the largest land owner in and around Ithaca His interest in
Ithaca earned him the well mei ited title "Father of Ithaca "
Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors 431
The name bestowed on the new county honored a distinguished citizen
of New York State, Daniel D Tompkins He had served as a member
of the Constitutional Convention and Assembly, a judge of the Supreme
Court, Governor for ten years (1807-1817) , Chancellor of the University
of New York State, and a defender of the American cause in the War
of 1812 His message on the Abolition of Slavery, led to its abolishment
in this State in 1826 He was Vice -President of the United States from
1817-1825 Hence, when the new county of Tompkins was named it was
a natural tribute to this gi eat patriot
The year 1967 was an important milestone in the history of Tompkins
County The county governing body recognized its sesqui-centennial
year with appropriate ceremony The highlight of its observance was
the imaginative re-enactment of the first recorded meeting of the super-
visors following the legislative act of April 7, 1817
A short play entitled, "A Hundred and Fifty Yeais Ago," researched,
written and directed by Donald Mainwaring, was performed before a
large audience the evening of April 17, 1967, in the main court room
The cast were members of the Board of Supervisors, made up and dressed
in the style of their predecessors of 1817 Preparation for this event con-
sumed many hours of _-eheaisals, which paid off in a successful per-
formance
The program was opened with introductory remarks by W Glenn
Norris, County Historian who introduced Morris Bishop, Emeritus Pro-
fessor, Cornell Univeisity, historian and author, whose timely talk was
"Tompkins County in 1817 "
In connection with the 150th anniversary I thought it appioptiate that
the county should have a poitiait of its namesake, Daniel D Tompkins
A photograph copy of an of iginal oil painting was obtained from an
Albany museum This was enlarged and painted in colors and a bio-
graphical legend inscribed thereon The framed portrait was presented
by me to the Board of Supeivisois April 24, 1967
Also, during 1967, served as general-chan man of Town of Lansing's
150th celebration, gave seven talks to organizations in the county, gave
many interviews and answeied many requests for specific information

Crime in Tompkins County has increased in 1967 Sheriff's Depaitment
investigated 624 Motor Vehicle Accidents in 1967 which was a decrease
of 78 from 1966 We feel that this can be contributed directly to stepped
up patrols in 1967 The Board of Supervisors approved additional men
last year which enables us to keep cars on the highway around the clock.
Deputies made 986 Traffic arrests in 1967
1163 complaints were handled by this Department during the last
year, resulting in 30 felony arrests, 213 misdemeanors, and 56 for minor
offenses Over $9,000 was collected by this Department for restitution
on fraud checks We had forty (40) more County prisoners in the jail
for this year than we did last year We housed 289 prisoners for the
City of Ithaca and turned over to the Tompkins County Treasurer
$4,280 00 received for the care of these prisoners
Our navigation Department patrolled Cayuga Lake again this year
and issued 32 summons for violations on the lake, of these 32 summons
all were convicted and paid fines Our boat was on the lake from May 18,

fatal accident on the lake this summer

Police Officers training school at Broome Tech and all three were
among the top men in their class
During 1967 theie were 319 arrests made for various reasons of which
20 were women Statistics show under the nature of crime that the largest
number of persons were detained at the County Jail for driving while
intoxicated However, only five of this number were sentenced to jail
for this crime Petit larceny falls next in line with 15 sentenced to jail
for this crime Criminal arrests show 30 felonies, 213 misdemeanors and

WILDLIFE RABIES CONTROL PROGRAM
ANNUAL SUMMARY REPORT — 1967
(Detailed report on file with Clerk of the Board of Supervisors)
Fox density indications varied from a low of 0 1 track pei mile in the
northern counties of Clinton, Franklin, Jefferson and Lewis to a high of
1 7 tracks per mile in the Lake Plains County of Orleans During March
two trappers were assigned to the Wildlife Research Lab at Delmar to as-
sist with a striped skunk reproductive inhibitor study (Results in Prog-
ress Report No 13, 1967) Contiol trapping began April 14, assignments
being made for eight program trappers During the trapping period from
April 14 to November 19, 1967, State Program trappers worked in 58
townships in 19 counties, taking 1120 foxes and 579 skunks in 33,075
trap nights Only three counties — Erie, Niagara, and Schenectady — par-
ticipated in cooperative State -aid -to -county rabies control trapping pro-
grams during 1967 Five county -employed trappers, supervised by Wild-
life Rabies Contiol Program personnel worked in 27 townships and cap-
tured 663 foxes and 174 skunks in 23,289 trap nights The combined
State and County programs' take of fox and skunk was 1,783 and 553
respectively A total of 89 confirmed rabies cases occurred in 18 counties
of New York State (exclusive of New York City) during 1967 More than
60 percent of this year's cases occurred in the three northern counties of
Clinton, Franklin and St Lawrence The fox still maintained the dubious
distinction of being the number one rabies vector with 29 cases being
reported Skunks, totalling 21 cases, were a close second and, surprisingly,
bats were third high with a record total of 16 cases The bat cases oc-
curred for the most part in counties located in the lower Hudson Valley
with two cases coming from Nassau County on Long Island The re-
ported cases of bat rabies have generally occurred near large bodies of
water or large river valleys The significance may be that larger human
populations are located there also Control trapping operations for 1968
are indefinite at this time and will depend on where relatively high fox
populations might be discovered during the winter fox census surveys

a tremendous improvement to the facility, especially in snow removal
The land acquisition for the Northeast Clear Zone should be com-
pleted during 1968 making the runway secure forever With all these
increases and indications that they are growing daily, it is imperative
that plans be started for the customer service area this year for its comple-

ANNUAL REPORT
TOMPKINS COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH
Dr Robert H Broad, Commissioner
(Detailed Report on File with Clerk of the Board)
HIGHLIGHTS — 1967
MEDICARE The Department has now experienced a total calendar
year as a "Home Health Agency," providing care in the home to Medi-
care recipients Nursing service prior to this program has been furnished
at no direct cost to the patient The additional burden of bookkeeping
and billing has required an additional person on the clerical staff If
influencing factors remain the same, it may be projected that services
to Medicare recipients will approximate $35,000 per year
MEDICAID The future of Medicaid eligibility is uncertain The reason
for charging the Department of Social Services for nursing services to
Medicaid recipients is to increase the amount of Federal (Title XIX)
money to the County Most such services are to Medicare -Medicaid
eligible persons who are unable to pay the co-insurance portion of Medi-
cate (i e the first $50 and the 20% co-insurance)
ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH LABORATORY This was closed in
December 1967 due to resignation of the chemist and technician The
New York State Department of Health is establishing a Regional Labor-
atory in Syracuse to serve Central New York In the meantime all samples
are being sent to the Department of Laboratories and Research in
Albany
VITAL STATISTICS Population Estimate, July 1, 1967 — 73,788 (Esti-
mate — New York State Department of Health) See original report on
file with Clerk of the Board of Supervisors for breakdown of statistics
INFECTIOUS DISEASES
INFLUENZA The year closed with the beginning of an epidemic of A2
influenza It is also probable that an enterovirus was prevalent at the
same time, as the symptoms of those ill varied The advent of the holiday
vacation caused less interruption of school than would have otherwise
occurred
POLIOMYELITIS IMMUNIZATIONS Amendment of the Public
Health Law required that effective January 1, 1967, any child attending
any school in the State be adequately immunized against polio The
Health Department provided the vaccine and the services to the schools
of the County in the early part of 1967 It also advised and encouraged
that other needed immunizations be accomplished at the same time Plans
are formulated for continuation of this program in 1968, and where
needed, to include measles immunization
Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors 441
COMMUNICABLE DISEASES There were no epidemics of common
communicable diseases and measles were conspicuous by their absence.
Infectious hepatitis dropped about 50% from the 48 cases in 1966
Veneral disease, generally on the increase throughout the United States,
remained about the same as in 1966 locally Gonorrhea was reported in
flumes until the promiscuous infected persons could be located and
treated Of the cases of syphilis i eported none were in the early infec-
tious stage Mumps vaccine will become available shortly after the first
of the year It is believed that the immunization resulting may be for
lile, however, insufficient time to determine this leaves a question
RABIES None of the 24 animal heads submitted to the State Health
Department laboratoi y proved to be rabid The last known rabid ani-
mal in the County was a skunk in July, 1965 313 animal bites, in most
instances, requned an original visit to confine the animal and seven days
later for release if it proved to be healthy 1,075 dogs were vaccinated
at public clinics, and 965 were immunized privately 70% of the clogs
enumerated are immunized for rabies
TUBERCULOSIS Seven new cases of Tuberculosis were reported in
1967, two at the time of death, and two were foreign students All patients
with active disease, at home, are receiving drug therapy under the super-
vision of the clinic physician All arrested cases are kept on the active
foster for 2 years after the cessation of drug therapy and maintaining an
apparent inactive status All patients of inactive status are requested to
return at least annually for rechecks for the first 10 years and at least
bi-annually thereafter
MALIGNANT DISEASE 178 new cases of malignant disease were re-
pos ted in 1967, 25 less than in 1966 and 85 less than 1965 There were
about 24 new cases per 10,000 population The 79 deaths from the disease
represents 10 7 deaths per 10,000 population It can be stated that there
were 69 less cases reported and 36 less deaths than were projected by the
Bureau of Cancer Control of the New York State Department of Health
PHYSICALLY HANDICAPPED CHILDREN'S PROGRAM "Medi-
caid" has caused consicleiable confusion and changes in the administra-
tive aspects need to be accomplished The varying financial status of
families requires constant checking as to eligibility and responsibility of
payment for services Requests for orthodontia have increased to the
extent that the screening clinic in Syracuse, unable to keep pace, has
delays of six to nine months
During 1967, 91 cases were piocessed, of which 75 were Medicaid eligible
The remaining 16 were paid foi via funds (50% State, 50% County) ,
however, in all but a few instances, the families agreed to pay to the
County a portion of the cost
Orthopedic consultation and follow up for 75 patients referred by their
physicians was made available through clinics conducted at the Depart-
ment
442 Tompkins County, New York
PUBLIC HEALTH NURSING
ADMINISTRATION In 1967, the staff of the nursing division re-
mained one director, two supervising public health nurses (one of whom
is the Home Care Coordinator) , nine public health nurses, four registered
professional nurses, and one licensed practical nurse Because of a de-
crease in the physical care caseload, one registered nurse vacancy was not
filled during the year, another nurse was ill for several months This
probably accounts for the decrease in number of home visits made in
1967, however, all patients requiring care were seen as scheduled, and
some inciease was noted in health guidance visits as well Turnover was
relatively light in 1967 Little difficulty was encountered in filling the
three public health nurse vacancies which did occur
THE HOME CARE PROGRAM
VISITS TO THE CHRONICALLY ILL The number of chronically ill
patients receiving nursing seivice has declined steadily, the 1967 figure
(374) being less than half of that of 1963 (787) This may represent a
more appropriate use of community nursing and other resources, rather
than under -utilization During this period, careful screening of service
requests has, in some instances, led to referral to other agencies, if nursing
visits did not appear to fill a particular need The chronically ill present-
ly receiving nursing visits may be those best able to profit from the
services of the Home Care Program Most of the patients are 65 or
older They appear to be the persons who require an increasing number
of visits per patient each year, and who need the full range of Home
Care Services Despite the drop in the number of chronically ill served,
the number of visits has not varied significantly from year to year, and
the utilization of other services, such as home health aides, or loan closet
equipment, has remained the same, or even increased If the percentage
of elderly patients requiring care continues to rise even greater attention
must be given to coordination of home care and other community services
PHYSICAL THERAPY In 1967, 69 patients received a total of 427
physical therapy visits Three quarters of the visits were made to patients
over 65, these comprised 60% of the total physical therapy caseload
Most of the visits were made to patients with a diagnosis of fracture,
CVA, arthritis or amputation of a lower extremity
LOAN CLOSET In 1967, loan closet items were utilized 217 times by
120 different patients, 40 of whom needed two or more items at one time
The items were in use a total of 27,457 days As part of the total home care
program, rental of loan closet items requires a doctor's order, and some
type of nursing service as well Efforts to give priority to persons
expected to need the equipment for a limited period have been made and
renewal of orders is required every sixty days
Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors 443
COMMUNITY SERVICES
MEALS ON WHEELS The long hoped for program began on July 10,
1967 The dietary department of Tompkins County Hospital makes up
the meals, and the Church Women's Volunteers transport them The
Home Care Coordinator at the Health Department screen the referrals
and clears them with the patient's doctor To date, 18 persons, 16 of
whom are over 65, have been admitted to the Service and 13 discharged
FRIENDLY VISITORS SERVICE This program expanded somewhat
in 1967 At present, 26 visitors see 26 lonely and homebound patients
in the community Transportation continues to be a problem, hindering
patients living in rural areas Continuing recruitment and training of
volunteers is essential if all persons who could benefit from this service
are to be seen
HOMEMAKER SERVICE This service is administered by the Family
and Children's Service, continued to supply home health aides for
Medicare patients on the Home Care Program Health Department
nurses evaluated the patients' needs, supervised the care given by the
aides, and made periodic reports to the physician 39 persons received
this service in 1967, receiving an average of 3 visits a week, for an average
period of 12 weeks The chronically ill are the major utilizers of Home-
maker Service, time spent with Medicare patients representing 65% of
the total hours of work
PREVENTIVE SERVICES
MATERNAL AND CHILD HEALTH Visits to post -partum mothers
and their babies increased slightly in 1967, many of which were to farm -
hes of university foieign students, and other young couples living far
from their own families PHN visits offering assistance and instruction in
the care of the baby can help these persons to assume their parental role
more comfortably
PARENTS' CLASSES Eight series of Parents' Classes were held, 142
parents were enrolled and 118 completed the course Community obste-
tricians refer many of their patients Staff members receive special prepar-
ation in a Leadership Training Course conducted at the Syracuse
Regional Office
]-HEALTH GUIDANCE Visits increased by 500 over those made in
1966, of 16% Many families benefit considerably from the individualized
guidance the nurse can give Older persons may welcome correct and
authoritative information about nutrition, safety in the home, and the
need for regular medical supei vision
CHILD HEALTH CONFERENCES 2247 visits were made to the Child
Health Conferences Some families seen at Child Health Conferences, hav-
ing obtained Medicaid Cards, sought the services of a private physician
The Child Health Conferences, offering immunizations and routine
444 Tompkins County, New York
physical examinations to well childien as well as health instruction to
their families, are felt to fulfill a continuing community need
SCHOOL IMMUNIZATION CLINICS Effective January 1, 1967, New
York State law required each child attending school to be immunized
against polio, greatly increasing the schools' requests for immunization
clinics The department provided nuising personnel and vaccine for 32
clinics held in 24 schools throughout the county 7,640 polio immuniza-
tions were given, 7,566 Sabin, 74 Salk, 1,019 doses of tetanus vaccine also
were given, as well as 174 D -T boosters and 404 smallpox vaccinations

availability of public facilities throughout the County
1967 ANNUAL REPORT
TOMPKINS COUNTY EXTENSION SERVICE ASSOCIATION
(Detailed report on file with Clerk of the Board of Supervisors)
The Tompkins County Extension Service Association had a busy year
in 1967 Its function, as in the past, was in providing information in
varied fields and using its experience and abilities in assisting other
organizations in a variety of problems and projects A reorganization was
completed during 1967 in line with a state-wide reorganization which
is designed to make Extension more effective and efficient in its oper-
ations and to make it more feasible to carry out educational programs
jointly by the three Divisions and with other counties As of January 1,
Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors 447
1968, the local Extension organization, in line with this reorganization,
operates under the name of Cooperative Extension Association of Tomp-
kins County Two staff members were on study leave part of the year, and
two replacements were made for staff members who resigned At the end
of the year, the Association was operating with a full staff, however
HOME ECONOMICS DIVISION — According to the 1960 census, there
were zn Tompkins County 14,715 families In the Home Economics Di-
vision there are two full-time home economists to serve these families with
a variety of information such as Child care, time and money manage-
ment, food and nutrition, consumer competence, family housing and
much more
There were, in 1960, 21,699 women over 17 years of age, working
women — 9,133 (42%) young homemakers — 10,111 (47%) , Disadvan-
taged families — 2,107 (14%) , organized women's clubs — 179, men and
women over 65 — 5,589 (9%)
Working women in Tompkins County accounted for 42% of the total
number of women over 17 years of age This was higher than the state-
wide average of 34% There is evidence, on a nationwide basis, that the
number of working women has increased over 73% zn the past decade
The Home Economics Division i eaches these women largely thi ough
the services of mass media A weekly radio broadcast and a one-half hour
television program originating in Binghamton keep these women up-to-
date with home economics information News articles such as the weekly
"Food Feature" in the Ithaca Journal, the "Before You Decide
column in the Rural News, spot announcements and special releases fur-
ther extend this information A monthly newsletter containing home
economics news in brief and special service letters with up-to-date in-
formation in depth, originate in this office
Young homemakers in Tompkins County are also reached through the
radio, TV programs, news columns and special releases Many young
homemakers are members of organized clubs and take advantage of the
leader training programs offered at the Agriculture, Home and 4-H
Center by the Home Economics Division Special interest seminars such
as "Home Remodeling" and the "Voice of Clothing" were sources of help
to them
For those young homemakers and patents of preschooleis who are not
able to attend meetings, a special series of 13 letters was designed to be
mailed to them Each letter was accompanied by a Cornell bulletin
Another letter series reached this group as well as many more Parents
of Preschoolers also received a series of letters and helpful bulletins
The Disadvantaged Families (i e families with an income of less than
53000 numbered 2,107 in the year 1960
Last year the Division worked with a group of parents of head -start
children through a series of monthly meetings, designed to help them
448 Tompkins County, New York
become better parents A new program covering a wide -range of material
including money management is being conducted this year at St Paul's
Methodist church for the parents of head -start children
There are 179 Organized Women's Clubs in Tompkins County These
clubs were invited to send a leader to the training schools held at the
center Leadeis ieceive training, teaching material and return to their
clubs to reteach the lesson When it can be scheduled, agents teach a
program directly to a club
Other agencies are served with home economics information such as.
Day Care Coordinating Center, Adult Education, and Public Health
Department, etc as well as supermarkets
The Senior Citizens were reached with only 2 programs both concerned
with meal planning and all individuals in the county are served by tele-
phone consultations, office visits, and/or home visits
Other activities for the year included sponsoring the visit of a business
consultant for the Department of Commerce in New York State She was
able to advise 10 individuals on the correct procedures of setting up their
own business
TOMPKINS COUNTY 4-H WORK — 4-H in Tompkins County con-
tinues to be a dynamic program which involves the lives of the entire
family During 1967 a record number of more than 4000 young people,
9-19 years of age in Tompkins County took part in at least one phase
of 4-H programs Of this number, more than 2000 participated as ,4-H
members in at least one 4-H project
Last year 450 adults and junior volunteer 4-H leaders in the county
led 4-H programs as either organizational, activity, project, advisory or
district 4-H leader capacities
Financial support for 4-H is expanding with the programs Special
public funds were appropriated in 1967 to permit a full time 4-H pro-
gram assistant to be employed specifically (but without label) in lower
income areas where a potential for 4-H exists but which required a tre-
mendous amount of patience and personal attendance During 1967, 250
boys and girls from lower socio economic areas were attracted to 4-H
programs
4-H has broken several "traditional" barriers during the past few
years It no longer serves solely the farm boy or girl but now makes the
same similar programs which "were so good for the farm boy or girl"
available to all boys and girls, 9-19 years of age
Volunteer leadeiship training is a plum ity in 4-H Between 50 and
75 volunteer 4-H leader workshops are taught by Cornell specialists, 4-H
Agents and other persons secured by the county 4-H office
Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors 449
AGRICULTURAL DIVISION
Commercial Agrzcultm e — Assistance to dairy faim families by the Agri-
cultural Division of Extension, made up again the major portion of the
program effort in Commercial Agriculture
Close contact was maintained and assistance given when needed to
farm organizations and cooperatives during the year
Country Lzvzng — Many of the possibilities for being helpful in the area
of Country Living and Home Grounds was not carried out this year be-
cause of the unavailability of staff It is planned to have mole adequate
staff in 1968 for this area
Resource Development — This was a very active year in this area of work
Twenty-seven Community Appraisal meetings were held with twelve
groups and Planning Boards in Lansing, Groton, and Dryden to study
the resources of then communities, their problems and objectives.
The Resource Development Committee was assisted in completing
their study and reports on the Resources of the County Assistance was
also given in their proposal requested by the Planning and Public Rela-
tions Committee of the Board of Supervisors on County Planning Other
Resource Development sub -committees assisted were the ones on Hous-
ing, Natural Resources, and Conservation
Public Affairs — A great many gt oups and organizations were given assist-
ance in carrying out their programs and projects Among these were
Tompkins County Youth Court, Economic Opportunity Corporation,
Town and Country Fair, etc
Miscellaneous—Wolk with the Regional Poultry Program setting up a
four -county Dairy Team to do Extension work on a regional basis, Ex-
tension Reorganization, radio and television shows, and a wide variety
of other work was also done throughout the year
1967 ANNUAL REPORT
ASSESSMENT DEPARTMENT
Thomas Payne, Director
(Detailed iepoit filed with the Cleik of the Boaid of Supervisors)
Looking back over the twelve months of 1967 this director concludes
that it has been a productive and satisfying year
To be sure it was a year of major importance in terms of the amount
and kind of activity There aie very few counties in the State of New
York who, for example, have had two county -wide revaluation projects
over a ten or twelve year pei iod Likewise the preparation and use of
tax maps have accounted for much of the additional activity by way of
450 Tompkins County, New York
corrections to the maps and revision of appraised values as a result of
grievance day.
REVALUATION —The contractual agreement with the J M Clemin-
shaw Company was about completed by March 1st The last of the field
review (as a result of the open book sessions) were completed and the
property record cards turned over to the local assessor
From the propel ty recoi d cards the assessors proceeded to show the new
assessed values on the field books prepared for this purpose In some
instances the assessor requested that the staff of this department aid him
in this task
NOTICE OF INCREASED ASSESSMENT — Pursuant to Section 510 of
the Real Property Tax Law notice of increased assessments were prepared
and sent to each owner of real property in the towns
GRIEVANCE DAY —As a result of conducting informal hearings in
1966, grievance day 1967 was conducted in each town on a reasonably
normal basis Field review of the applications proceeded through the
month of July, with final completion and filing of the rolls in August
PUBLIC RELATIONS — Throughout the whole period, the Ithaca
Journal and other news media were particularly helpful in presenting
mfoimation to the taxpayers
COSTS OF REVALUATION
TAX MAPS—The total cost would indicate $4 41 per parcel for the
22,000 parcels subsequently mapped by American Air Surveys of Pitts-
burgh and certified by the State Board
APPRAISAL — The indicated price per parcel for this part of the pro-
gram was $5 14
EQUALIZED ASSESSMENTS — The purpose of a revaluation, such as
that most recently completed, is to achieve a measure of equality in the
valuation of real property for tax purposes
COMPUTER CAPABILITY—The total cost of this system was $36,000
01 $1 64 per parcel based on 22,000 parcels
To date, five program panels have been tested, used and found to be
reliable They are (1) Work Sheet program (replacement cost less de-
preciation) , (2) Label Program, (3) Tax Extension and Billing Pro-
gram, (4) Disc Load Program (used in loading and maintaining names
and mailing addresses in the magnetic disc file) To my knowledge, all
of these programs are unique within the State of New York in the assess-
ment field and to the Fiiden organization All of these programs have
pioved to be a practical and accurate means of originating and main-
taining the full value records on residential, farm and public utility
property The flexibility of out present computer is its biggest advantage
Its outstanding disadvantage is its slowness in terms of printing capa-
bility

1967 ANNUAL REPORT
DEPARTMEN F OF SOCIAL SERVICES
Clinton Aimitage, Commissioner
(Detailed report on file with Cleik of the Board of Supervisors)
Total expenditures for the year 1967 were $3,395,771 Comparative
figures for the past five years are as follows 1963, $1,606,036, 1964,
$1,592,143, 1965, $1,652,857, and 1966, „:2,094,579 The local net cost
to the County for 1967 was $1,056,352 76 01 31 1% of the total expended
This is an increase of 2 3% over 1966
PUBLIC ASSISTANCE DIVISION — We have had a slight increase in
family cases Employment in the area has continued high Staff members
continue to work closely with other community agencies toward securing
the maximum of services for recipients with a minimum of duplication
and toward the goal of maximum self -maintenance possible Public
Assistance allowances were increased 4 7% in 1967 to take into consider-
ation the rise in cost of living
CHILD WELFARE DIVISION — Referrals for Child Welfare Services
decreased from 785 in 1966 to 410 in 1967
CHILD WELFARE STATISTICS — Under care during the year were
510 children of whom 240 were discharged, leaving 110 children in board-
ing homes, 31 in piivate institutions, 119 in own 01 relative's homes, and
10 in adoptive homes for a total of 270 children under care the last day
of the year
DAY CARE —This Department working closely with a Day Care Com-
mittee of the Counselling Section of the Social Planning Committee,
assisted in establishing a Day Cale Service A proposal for funding from
Federal funds has been drafted Because Tompkins County has too small
a population to sustain more than one Day Care Agency, and there is a
great need for coordination of Day Care Services, it is proposed to estab-
lish a Cooperative Day Care Service with the Department of Social
Services and the Social Planning Council, through the United Fund, both
contributing to the Service
RESOURCE REPORT — Resource recoveries to the Department for the
year 1967 totalled $41,982 27 As of January 1, 1967 there were 30 prop-
el ties deeded to the Department and 13 mortgages During the year four
deeds and two mortgages were liquidated The Department participated
in the payments of 31 burials, 25 paid in full and 6 in partial payments
SURPLUS FOOD PROGRAM — 178,894 pounds of food at a retail price
N,alue of $59,684 01 was distributed at a total cost of $2,045 67 The food
allotted to a family of five at piesent day ietail costs averages a saving
of $21 - 523 a month
452 Tompkins County, New York
An average of 1365 persons monthly have participated in the program,
this comprises an average of 285 families per month, both welfare and
non -welfare A monthly average of 91 4% eligible families have picked
up their allotment

CITIZEN'S COMMITTEE ON REAPPORTIONMENT

Resume and Introduction
In June 1964, the United States Supreme Court decided, in cases in-
volving six states, that districts from which representatives are elected to
each house of a state legislature must be approximately equal in popula-
tion Subsequent decisions of state courts and lower federal courts indi-
cate that, where representatives are elected to a local governing board
from districts or geographic areas, those districts also must be approxi-
mately equal in population, or their voting strength on a board must be
approximately proportionate to their population Some such decisions
have applied specifically to city councils and county boards of supervisors
in New York
The Tompkins County Board of Supervisors, like almost all other
county boards in New York, has consisted of one representative or super-
visor from each town and city ward In Tompkins County, there are 7
wards of the City of Ithaca and 9 towns The supervisor elected in each
town, unlike those elected in the city wards, has served as a town officer
as well as a representative on the County Board
Districts (towns and city wards) from which the 16 supervisors have
been elected vary in population, according to the 1960 Census, from
9,199 in the Fifth Ward of the City to 1,573 in the Town of Enfield
(See Table I) This is enough variation apparently to require reappor-
tioning or rechawing of district boundaries so that all districts are more
nearly equal in population
Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors 479
The Tompkins County Board of Supervisors, faced with the practical
certainty of having to undertake such a task, and sooner rather than
later, resolved to establish this Citizens Committee on Reapportionment
which was to recommend a plan
We, the Board's Committee, recognize that the Board cannot yet, if
it would, adopt the Committee's plan or any other plan until state legis-
lation is enacted empowering the Board to act At present, only counties
where county charters have been adopted, can reapportion county govern-
ing boards In other counties, including Tompkins County, reapportion-
ment is possible only through cout t action, until there is enabling state
legislation
Neither we nor the Board of Supervisors can be certain that the plan
recommended by this Committee will meet the requirements of state
laws until such laws have been enacted We assume, however, that the
Board desired a plan from this Committee as soon as practicable, so
that if a court suit were initiated in this County prior to passage of state
legislation, a considered method of reapportionment would be available
in response to judicial inquiry and possible judicial mandate If the
Committee's recommended plan does not conform with state laws that
are expected to be enacted at the current legislative session, we stand
ready to submit a revised plan that will conform, should this be desired
by the Board
Court decisions and legal opinions have left many ambiguities con-
cerning the kind of reapportionment plan that will not violate require-
ments of the Constitution of the United States Some doubts concerning
constitutionality of assigning supervisors either weighted or fractional
votes approximately proportionate to the population of the districts they
now represent, together with conclusions expressed to the Committee
at its hearings, have led this Committee to recommend a plan in which
district boundaries are redrawn so that all districts have approximately
equal population The County Supervisor elected from each district
would have, as at present, one vote on the County Board
How approximate should "approximately equal" be? This Committee
has assumed that deviation of up to 15 per cent from the average district
population is permissible This standard, which permits districts to range
from 85 per cent to 115 per cent of the "ideal", has come to be commonly
accepted It is used by the Legislature of the State of New York, for
example, in drawing the Congressional districts for the State's delegation
in the national House of Representatives
In drawing district boundaries, the Committee has not crossed town
or city lines, partly to avoid either appearance or reality of gerrymander-
ing, and partly to have representation on the County Board continue to
be as contiguous as possible with town and city local government jurisdic-
tions As a result, each of two county supervisory districts would be com-
prised of two towns, each of two towns would be divided into two county
480 Tompkins County, New York
supervisory districts, and the seven city wards would remain entnely
within the City but their boundaries would necessarily be substantially
altered
We recognize that such adherence to town and city lines has been pos-
sible mainly because of fortuitous statistical circumstance Another decen-
nial federal census in 1970 will probably require another reapportion-
ment That population count may make it impossible to redraw district
lines which observe town and city lines so closely
Another question facing the Committee was what measures of "popu-
lation" would meet constitutional requirements and, at the same time,
accord fair accommodation to the peculiar conditions prevailing in
Tompkins County The Committee, through its consultations with State
officials, has been led to believe that various alternatives are acceptable
so long as they are not employed with intent to discriminate against one
or another group of people Among the alternatives examined by the
Committee were (a) total population of the County, as enumerated in
the 1960 Census, (b) number of registered voters in the County, as listed
with the County Board of Elections for 1964, (c) the adult popula-
tion, as enumerated in the 1960 Census
An important question in relation to measures of population was how
to ti eat students attending Cornell University and Ithaca College There
are approximately 15,000 such students and they number between 20 and
25 per cent of the County's total population The great majority of them
are not permanent residents of the County even though the 1960 Census
counted them as living here It would clearly be unconstitutional and
discriminatory to remove these students from the population base for an
apportionment Thus the Committee has made no attempt to single out
students for exclusion for purposes of representation It is worth noting
that the State Constitution declares that for voting purposes no person
shall be deemed to have gained or lost a residence by reason of his pres-
ence or absence while a student of any "seminary of learning " The Com-
mittee, however, is dealing not with voting but with the quite different
question of county representation Thus while no students are excluded
simply because they are students, an effort has been made to devise .r
system whereby this largely non-resident group does not chstort the
entire representative structure
A question to which the Committee has no answer in the absence of
state legislation, is how the tradition -11 dual role of the town supers isoi
as both a town officer and a member of the county board may be re-
solved Where two towns are in the same county supervisory district,
obviously no more than one of the two town officers may be elected
to the county board Where two county supervisory districts are in one
town, no more than one county supervisor can simultaneously be super-
visor in the town govei nment The dual capacity of town super-
visor is so embedded in state laws that many changes are needed if the
two roles are to be filled wholly or partly by different individuals as seems
Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors 481
necessary to comply with cot_ t interpretations of the Constitution of
the United States This Committee has concluded that it would be
worse than useless to anticipate what the necessary changes in state laws
will or should be
TABLE I
CURRENT APPORTIONMENT FOR THE
BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
The current apportionment is based on the enumeration of all indi-
viduals residing in the County at the time of the Census conducted in
April of 1960
Given a total population of 66,164 to be represented by 16 Supervisors
an "ideal" district would contain 4,137 residents The following table

Under this apportionment it is possible for the 9 Supervisors from the
9 smallest Towns and Waids, repiesenting 35% of the County's popula-
tion, to be a voting majority on the Boaid of Supervisois (The 8 Super-
482 Tompkins County, New York
visors from the 8 smallest Wards and Towns, representing 29% of the
County's population, can effect a tie on the Board of Supervisors )
Membership and Meetings
(1) Your Committee was appointed on June 14, 1965, with the man-
date to recommend a reapportionment plan for Tompkins County The
initial membership of the Committee, as created by the Board of Super-
visors, consisted of James J Clynes, Chairman of the Tompkins County
Democratic Committee, Frederick B Bryant, Chairman of the Tompkins
County Republican Committee, Andrew Hacker, Associate Professor of
Government at Cornell University, and Edward A Lutz, Professor of
Public Administration at Cornell University The Committee was em-
powered to add a fifth member of its own choosing
(2) At a meeting on July 7, 1965, the four initial members of the
Committee voted to invite John MacDonald, Professor of Law at Cornell
University, to join as a fifth member The Committee, at that time, also
elected Andrew Hacker as its Chairman
(3) On December 1, 1965, Mayor Hunna Johns of the City of Ithaca,
on the request of the Committee, appointed Alderman Arthur C Stall -
man and N Arnold Tolles as Common Council members to serve in a
liaison capacity with the Committee
(4) On Januaiy 3, 1966, James J Clynes, following his resignation as
Chaiiman of the Tompkins County Democratic Committee, also resigned
from the Committee His seat was taken by James Graves, his successor
as Chairman of the County Democratic Committee
(5) The Committee held four meetings, all in executive session, on
July 7, 1965, on August 10, 1965, on January 26, 1966, and on Februaiy
16, 1966 Pi ioi to the July 7, 1965 meeting, the Committee engaged in a
fruitful discussion with interested members of the Board of Supervisors
A written recoid was made of that discussion
(6) On September 29, 1965, the Committee held a Public Hearing m
the Tompkins County Court House that was attended by approximately
75 citizens A range of views and sentiments were expressed, and these
were recorded so that the Committee might refer to them in its sub-
sequent deliberations
Recommendations
(7) The membeiship of the Boaid of Supervisors should remain at the
figuie of sixteen The mandate of your Committee was to make recom-
mendations for "reapportioning" the constituencies of the existing mem-
bership of the Board of Supervisors Any proposal to raise or lower the
number of Supeivisois should come from another quarter at another
time
(8) Reapportionment should use as its base the number of adults
who reside in the County This is not a conventional proposal and the
reasons behind it deseive some amplification Your Committee gave long
and serious considei ation to continuing the existing base, which is total
Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors 483
population It also considered using iegisteied voters as the basis for
reapportionment Both of these were rejected in favoi of using adult
population The reasoning is as follows
(9) Total Population (Not Recommended) Tompkins County is con-
fronted with a special — although not a unique — situation Of the total
population of the County, as many as 20 to 25 per cent of the residents
are college and university students whose permanent residences are
actually outside the County The official population of the County is
computed decennially by the United States Bureau of the Census, which
happens to make its count in Apiil at a time when the students are
physically in the County Were the Census enumeration to be held on,
say, December 26 or June 15, the figure would be substantially lower
(10) Your Committee will not piopose that representation be taken
away from students simply because they are students There is no inten-
tion of doing this, and such a move would not be possible because there
is no way of knowing, from available data, how many and which people
in a given area of the County are in fact students What is clear, however,
is that if total population — as computed by the Census in April — were
used then substantial representation would be accorded to areas which
happen to contain the temporary residences of transient students Were
total population to be the base, for example, there would have to be two
entire Wards — and hence two Supervisors — largely comprised of the
dormitories and rooming houses of Cornell University students Hence
the few permanent residents of those two Wards would in fact have far
greater representation than their fellow -citizens elsewhere in the County
The same condition would prevail in the Town of Ithaca, with its 3,000
Ithaca College students
(11) The major and ongoing interests of non -adult students are repre-
sented by the votes of their parents, the vast majoiity of whom live
outside the County These students are already represented, in matters of
County government, in their home counties Your Committee secured sta-
tistical information from the Registrar's Office of Cornell University
that throws light on this point In September of 1964 there were 12,472
students enrolled at the Cornell University campus in Ithaca Of this
number, only 1,558 gave a Tompkins County address as their permanent
or home address when registering at the University Thus over 87 per
cent of the Cornell University student body are non-residents We assume
that they are represented at their actual homes outside the County
(12) Registered Voters (Not Recommended) According to the 1960
Census, the total population of the County was 66,164 In 1964, a
Presidential election year, the numbei of iegisteied voters was 26,621, of
40 per cent of the total County population It is possible to draw up a
Ieapportionment plan using registeied voters as the population base.
Such a plan would, needless to say, cut down the repiesentation of areas
largely populated by non-resident students In the current Ward con-
484 Tompkins County, New York
taming the largest number of Cornell University students only 13 per
cent of the population are registered to vote
(13) However such a reapportionment would be discriminatory For
example, only 39 per cent of the residents of the Town of Danby were
registered to vote in 1964, whereas 52 per cent of those living in the
Town of Newfield were iegistered If iegistered voters were to be the
reapportionment base, then each person living in the area comprising
Newfield would have 25 per cent more representation than each resident
of the Danby area
(14) Adult Population (Recommended) According to the 1960 Cen-
sus, the County had an adult population of 38,396 This adult popula-
tion, which includes all students over 21, is 58 per cent of the County's
total population of 66,164 What is noteworthy is that the adults con-
stitute 58 per cent of the City's population and also 58 per cent of the
County population residing outside the City Hence if either adult or
total population were to be made the basis for reapportionment then the
ratio of City -to -Town Supervisors would continue at 7 -to -9 The reason
for this, interestingly, is that while the City contains many non -adult
students they are balanced off by older City residents who have no
children Thus the adult -minor ratio is the same in the City and outside
of it
(15) If adult population is used as the population base, then the
"ideal" constituency should have 2399 adult residents That is, if each
of the 16 constituencies were precisely equal in adult population then
each would have 2399 adults residing in them Your Committee assumed
its mandate to be to create new constituencies that would come as close
as possible to approximating this "ideal" of 2399
(16) The Towns The following fisting gives the 1960 Census
enumeration of the number of adults residing in each of the nine towns
Each town's percentage deviation from the "ideal" population of 2399
adults is also shown

Caroline 1,198 — 50%
Danby 1,143 — 52
Dryden 4,087 + 70

Ithaca 5,490 +129
Lansing 2,485 + 4
Newfield 1,217 — 49
Ulysses 2,544 + 6
(17) Your Committee recommends that Groton, Ulysses, and Lansing
each continue with one member on the Board of Supervisors
Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors 485
(18) Your Committee recommends that Caroline -Danby be combined
into a single constituency with one member on the Board of Supervisors,
and that Enfield -Newfield also be combined into a single district The
Caroline -Danby district would have an adult population of 2,341, which
is 2 per cent under the "ideal " The Enfield -Newfield district would
have an adult population of 2,046, which is 14 per cent less than the
"ideal " Your Committee realizes that if this occurs, then it will not be
possible for both Town Officers of a two -town district to sit on the Board
of Supeivisors Arrangements will have to be made concerning the eligi-
bility of Town Officers for the position of County Supervisor Your Com-
mittee makes no such proposals hese
(19) Your Committee recommends that the towns of Ithaca and Dry-
den each be given two County Supervisors Your Committee recommends
further that distinct geographic constituencies be created for each of the
County Supervisors within each 7 own If the two County Supervisors
for a town were to be elected on an at -large basis, then there would
emerge the possibility that a single poi tion of the town would be able
to elect both County Supervisors Separate constituencies, based on proxi-
mity of residence and affinity of interest, would bring County Super-
visors closer to their constituents and would give areas of less population -
density the possibility of effectively expressing their sentiments through
the polls Again, in the towns of Ithaca and Dryden arrangements would
have to be made concerning the eligibility of Town Officers for the posi-
tion of County Supervisor In both Ithaca and Dryden it is clear that at
least one of the Town's County Supeivisors would not be the Town
Officer.

TABLE II
PROPOSED REAPPORTIONMENT FOR THE
BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
The proposed reapportionment is based on the enumeration of all
adults residing in the County at the time of the Census conducted in
April of 1960
Given an adult population of 38,396 to be represented by 16 Super-
visors, an "ideal" district would contain 2,399 adults The following
table shows each proposed district's deviation from that "ideal" figure

Under this pioposed reapportionment, a voting majority on the Board
of Supervisors consisting of 9 Supervisois from the 9 smallest Wards and
Districts will still represent 52% of the adult population of the County
(The 8 Supervisors representing the 8 smallest Wards and Districts, hav-
ing 46% of the County's adult population, can effect a tie on the Boaid
of Supervisors )
Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors 487
(20) The attached map depicting the towns of Ithaca and Dryden
shows the proposed districts for these towns The division of the Town
of Ithaca is as follows (a) The first district is to consist of the North and
Northeast portion of the town, extending as far South as Route 336 The
adult population of this district is estimated from the Census data to be
about 2,760, or 15 per cent higher than the "ideal" size for a district
(b) The second district is to consist of the entire remainder of the Town
The adult population of this district is estimated to be close to 2,730, or
14 per cent above the "ideal" size of 2,399 (Estimates were made neces-
sary because of the irregular shapes of the Census enumeration -areas )
(21) The division of the Town of Dryden is into two districts as fol-
lows (a) One district is to consist of the now -existing Election Districts
1, 2, and 7 The adult population of this district is estimated to be 2,040,
or 15 per cent lower than the "ideal" size for a district (b) The second
district is to consist of the territory now embraced by Election Districts
3, 4, 5, and 6 The adult population of this district is estimated to be
2,047, or 15 per cent below the "ideal" size for the district (Your Com-
mittee used estimated figures here, operating on the assumption that
each of the Election Districts in the Town of Dryden has the same propor-
tion of adults to registered voters as does the town as a whole It was not
possible to use Census enumeration -areas, which do give exact figures
for adult populations, in creating disti icts for the Board of Supervisors
This is because the six Census enumeration -areas for the Town of Dry-
den cannot be arranged into two distiicts that are compact and equal in
population )
(22) Your Committee appreciates full well that, in its proposals, the
two districts for the Town of Ithaca contain over 2,700 adults whereas
the two in the Town of Dryden contain only about 2,000 While these
disparities are within the acceptable deviation of 15 per cent above and
below the "ideal" size, they go to the limit of those deviations The only
way to achieve greater equality among the four districts would have been
to take a portion of the Town of Ithaca and give it to the Town of Dry-
den However this is more easily said than clone For only a small por-
tion of the Town of Ithaca actually touches on the Town of Dryden
And were a part of that portion to be added to the Town of Dryden, then
what remained of the Town of Ithaca would be cut into two separated
sections A glance at the map will demonstrate this Your Committee
concluded that a slight imbalance in representation was preferable to
a cartographical exercise that would have the practical effect of severing
the Town of Ithaca into two unconnected districts
(23) The Caty The task of recommending a reapportionment plan
for the City Wards has not been an easy one It is not possible simply to
move territory (and people) from the oversized wards into those that
are undersized For, under the existing apportionment, the large wards
are grouped together on the East side of the City and the small wards
are together to the West and South Thus it was necessary to effect a
general "Westward movement" that involved the subtraction of some
488 Tompkins County, New York
old territory and the addition of some new territory in the case of every
single ward Indeed, one entire new ward had to be created By the same
token, natural geographic contours could not always be accommodated
for example, there are simply not enough people on South Hill to give
it a ward that is all its own
(24) Your Committee's proposals for new ward boundaries took the
following considerations into account
(a) Waids should be as equal in adult population and as compact
as possible
(b) The creation of new wards should cause as little disruption as
possible to prevailing ward boundaries
(c) There should be as much overlap as possible between wards
and school districts
(d) As few as possible of incumbent office -holders should be re-
moved from wards where they have developed knowledge of local
conditions
(e) The convenience of voters in travelling from their homes to
polling places should be taken into account
(f) No electoral advantage should accrue for either political
party
(25) The attached map of the City contains your Committee's recom-
mendations for new wards It is obvious that if these proposals are
adopted there will have to be a period of readjustment The creation
of what is an entirely new ward on the lower part of East Hill has been
inevitable The combining of much of the territory in the current Third
and Sixth Wards also had to occur
(26) Table II shows the adult populations of the proposed wards
They range from 2,213 to 2,681, or from 8 per cent below the "ideal" size
to 12 per cent above it
(27) In technical terms, the figures of adult population for the pro-
posed wards are taken from the 66 Census enumeration -areas that made
up the City of Ithaca in 1960 Using these 66 pieces of territory, it was
possible to form seven wards of relatively equal population In only a
few cases was it necessary to draw ward boundaries through the middle
of Census enumeration -areas In these instances, informed estimates were
made of the number of adults allocated to each of the neighboring wards
(28) Your Committee is aware that the Board of Supervisois cannot
reapportion itself until certain statutes aie enacted by the State Legisla-
ture It also realizes that the City of Ithaca has the power to draw new
ward boundaries at any time Your Committee therefore recommends
that the City forebear from reappoitioning its wards until such time as
this legislation has been adopted for the County Your Committee strong-
Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors 489
ly recommends that the identical wards be used for electing City Alder-
men and City Supervisors
(29) Your Committee recommends that reapportionment plans not
be made the subject of referenda, in either the City or for the County as
a whole The reason for this recommendation is that if a reapportion-
ment plan is proposed and then voted down by a referendum, this defeat
at the polls will not exempt County from still having to reapportion
under the corpus of judicial interpretation now emerging in this State
The Supreme Court of the United States (in Lucas v Forty -Fourth Gen-
eral Assembly of Colorado, 377 U S 713) held that even a majority of the
voters in a referendum could not adopt or perpetuate an apportionment
that gave the residents of some districts markedly greater proportionate
representation than others If the voters persist m rejecting reapportion-
ment plans designed to rectify prevailing imbalances, then this County
may well find itself the defendant in a law suit and eventually placed in
the situation where a judge-made plan will be imposed upon it from the
outside
(30) Your Committee incurred expenses not exceeding $500 00 in the
course of its work, and an accounting of those monies will be submitted
to the Board of Supervisors within 30 days of the submission of this re-
port
