Carried.
Mr. Dates took the Chair and read the following statement:
"A sincere thanks to each and everyone of you. I am humbly proud
to be elected the first Chairman of Representatives under our new
Charter. I promise to live up to the high standards set by other Chair-
men such as Cliff Bower and Don Stobbs.
As a historical note, I would like to mention that Richard Townley
from the Town of Lansing was elected the first Chairman of the Tomp-
kins County Board of Supervisors when our county was formed in 1817.
So once again history repeats itself in electing the Representative from
Lansing as the first Chairman under our new Charter.
As we enter this new decade of 1970 under our new Charter, a Charter
that is a part of the Municipal 'Home Rule Law' passed in 1959 by the
6. January 5, 1970
State. Legislature, the basic principal being to return to counties certain
governing powers which previously have been exercised by the State
Government. This Charter is not a cure all, it is, however, a step in the
right direction. It lets us set up a more effective system of Administra-
tion. It gives us the opportunity to strengthen and improve the effective-
ness of our Executive Branch with a detailed relationship of various de-
partments that will be responsible and responsive. It has flexibility.
With this new Charter, this Board of Representatives will become the
predominate `Governmental Unit' of Tompkins County. Assuming this
new roll, new responsibilities and critical public issues will have to be
solved. Therefore, I am proposing that an effort be made to involve more
of our Tompkins County Citizens in advisory capacities on our several
boards. Local County Government more closely mirrors public opinion
than either state or federal governments, therefore; I remind this Board
that Government that is closest to the people is a- more responsive gov-
ernment. The lack of relationship and understanding between the elec-
tors and the elected, has been a matter of continuing concern. There-
fore, I am going to propose that a special committee be set up to get
the facts to the public..
Thanks to the past boards for their leadership and progressive attitude.
We can list a few of the many accomplishments that are now set up and
working.
1. A Department of Budget and Administration.
2. A Department of Health
3. A Department of Social Services
4. A Department of Planning (Helping us to solve our critical en-
vironmental problems)
5.. A Department of Public Works
6. A County Assessment Department
7. A Personnel Department
8. A County Jury Board
A Focus on the future would be to accomplish the following projec-
tions:
1. Continued study on consolidation of services, especially in water
and sewer when the facts prove to be in the best interest to all.
2. Conservation of County Natural Resources
3. Health Facilities and Services
4.. Capital Budgeting. A programto establish priorities and no capital
project will be undertaken unless included in the Budget.
5. Joint City -County_. Coordinating Committee. A special committee
under the Intergovernmental Relations Committee to actively ex-
plore all issues with the City and Other Municipalities and make
recommendations to this Board.
January 5, 1970 7
This new Charter will work only as well as we, the elected Representa-
tives, dedicate ourselves and our efforts. I am asking each one of you to
contact me after this meeting if you have any special committee that
you would especially like to serve on. I promise to name an Executive
Board that is non-partisan and in my humble opinion, will furnish the
best leadership for our County, will set a policy outlining what is to
be done, with priorities established, first things first, with emphasis on
cost to the taxpayer.
We all agree that good government is the best politics but let us not
forget — 'One should respect other peoples beliefs, but, we have to live
by our own.' "
The next order of business was the election of an Acting Chairman
pursuant to Local Law No. 2, 1963, to act in national emergency only.

Summary of reasons for requested additional space for County Clerk.
Applications for Recreation for Elderly Program from Warren Shaver

Under privilege of the Floor, Mr. John Mulroy, County Executive
from Onondaga County and also President of the County Officers'
Association, spoke to the Board. He noted the Association goes over
and reviews approximately 3,000 legislative bills relative to counties and
makes recommendations. The Association conducts schools and supplies
information for county officials. Laws are being passed in the area of
Health, Education, and Welfare and county legislative branches should
be aware of this field. He believes county -level spending of what he
calls "soft dollars" will increase in the future. He said soft dollars are
"people" expenditures in such areas as welfare, housing, aid to the poor,
race relations improvements and other social services. He said he sees
continuation of "hard dollars" spending for such items as road building
and construction, but increased social service emphasis. He stressed the
issue of home rule and said if there is not more centralization of services
on the county level, the threat of regionalization is imminent. He also
spoke on the subject of per capita state aid. The Governor has set up a
committee to make recommendations concerning this. It has been well
explained by Mr. Mulroy how the fast growing and progressive counties
are hurt by the present formula for per capita aid. The activities and
programs which have been and will be adopted become the financial
responsibilities not of a region but of the county governments located
in the region. Certainly per capita assistance to the counties is too small.
He said the Association will do the best they can to keep counties in-
formed of what's going on in this legislative session.
When questioned on county refuse problem he noted he was able to
get the legislature to allow Onondaga County to establish a Waste Au-
thority. The Authority is committed to the process of scheduling solid
waste and using it in a landfill operation. The County is presently evalu-
ating equipment costs and hopes to have the operation functioning by
summer.
Also, under privilege of the Floor, Janet Fitchen, representing the
League of Women Voters, spoke on the Food Surplus Problem and sug-
gested improvements be made in program and the county have more than
one food distribution station, have a publicity program and more certi-
January 26, 1970 21
fication centers throughout the county. She said that many eligible fam-
ilies do no know that the Commodity Distribution Program (food surplus
program) exists, that families have difficulties becoming certified at the
single office authorized to do the certification, that because there is only
one distribution point in the county, transportation problems make it
difficult or impossible to come for surplus food and because all
families are served at a single distribution center on one day a month
for a limited time, people have to wait for long periods of time to
receive their food.
Mr. Reeve Parker representing MOVE also spoke about the Food Sur-
plus Program. He said he had spoken with a representative of Onon-
daga County Food Assistance Program who had been surprised that
Tompkins County only had one site. He said usually urban counties
continued with one site and the more rural counties had more than one.
He feels the county has been negligent as far as serving the needs of the
poor locally and suggested improvement of the program in the future.
Chairman Dates noted that the Executive Committee had met and
has broken down the various committee functions under the six new
committees as follows:

met and he has delegated responsibilities to members of his committee
as follows:
Louis Webster, Frederick Stutz — Social Services Department
Gary Lee, Harry Kerr — Hospital
Arthur Golder, Jr. — Mental Health Department
Marion Schickel — Health Department
Also, he asked County Attorney Williamson about the appointment of
Paul Tavelli as Deputy County Attorney. Attorney Williamson said the
position is a civil service position but as yet Mr. Tavelli has not taken
the exam, which is in the process of being scheduled. The reason for
January 26, 1970 23
appointing him before is because his duties as Social Services Attorney
require him to appear in Family Court and to do this he must be a
deputy county attorney. Mr. Hurlbut, Personnel Director, stated that
there is now a possibility of the position being non-competitive but if it
stays in Civil Service the committee will be notified of the date the
exam is scheduled.
At this time Mr. Stutz spoke on the Food Surplus Distribution
Problem. He said the department will try a second distribution center,
probably in Dryden or Groton. They have urged the Acting Commis-
sioner of Social Services to use volunteer help. The Department will
publicize what the Food Stamp Program is all about.
Mr. Holden set up a Planning and Public Works Committee meeting
for 7:30 p.m. Monday, February 2 at the Highway Office. He also
mentioned that he had attended the Highway Superintendent's Con-
ference in Syracuse. He said the revisions in the Erwin Plan for town
highway improvements were scheduled to come before the state legisla-
ture for approval. Among the changes are an increase in the maximum
reimbursable amount towns can charge for road improvement from
$9,000 to $18,000 and the availability of up to $4500 for road topping.
There is presently no reimbursement for blacktopping roads. Require-
ments in road building are changed from 16 feet to 18 feet for the
width of a road with bridges required to be 24 feet wide. There is no
reimbursement for bridges. If the revised bill is passed, it will take effect
April, 1972.
Mr. Lee, Budget and Administration, noted that the committee had
met together with John Murphy, Commissioner of Budget and Admin-
istration; and Thomas Payne, Director of Assessment to organize and
iron out some of the problems. The next meeting will be tomorrow

and the Veterans' Service Agency are all moved to the Ithaca College

Agency Office. The plans are being prepared for the remaining depart-
ments that will move. Also, he noted the new heating plant is almost
completed and it has sufficient capacity to take care of the College
Complex sometime in the future.
Mr. Marcham delegated responsibilities in his Intergovernmental
Relations Committee as follows:
Frederick Stutz — Tompkins -Cortland Community College and Tomp-
kins County Library
Erie J. Miller, Jr. — Extension Service
John Marcham — Economic Opportunity Corporation, Human Rights
and Intergovernmental Cooperation
As a committee, the Election Board and Legislation.
Meetings of the Committee will be at 12:00 the second and fourth
Thursdays at Stone Hall, Cornell University. He also recommended all
department heads express their opinions to him on resolutions which
might affect them and told the board that all proposed legislation would
go through his committee prior to its appearance on the floor during a
meeting. He also mentioned a proposal to us from the Human Rights
Personnel Committee for a solution to the problem of getting a part-
time director. They have two candidates who agreed to do the job
for no pay with the understanding that the money would be used to hire
staff to cover the telephone. There will be a meeting at 4:00 Thursday
regarding this. He also said there is a vacancy on the Human Rights
Commission and also a County Representative vacancy on the E. O. C.
Board.
Mr. Graves mentioned that he was very impressed with the remodeling
done on the third floor of the Tompkins -Cortland Community College
Building in Groton which provides nine classrooms at a cost of $3,000.

Under privilege of the floor, Mrs. Dorothy L. Saperstone spoke regard-
ing the Retarded Children's Program. The program provides a training
program and workshops which motivate the retarded to do better. She
stated their present quarters are crowded and there is a lack of space.
They must find a new facility which will accommodate the program and
be approved by D.V.R., the division of vocational rehabilitation which
is under the State Education Dept. They are holding priority for fund-
ing A.R.C. and to obtain this funding A.R.C. must first get new loca-
tion. They have requested extra money from the County to meet the
requirements of the program.
Also under privilege of the floor, Mr. Sacko spoke on this same problem
and feels something should be done for the retarded people in the com-
munity and stressed a building is very badly needed. Chairman Dates
referred this matter to the Social Services and Health Committee.
Under privilege of the floor, Mrs. Florence Rumph stated she was
interviewed as a candidate for the position of Human Rights Director
which was to be a paid position. She questioned why this was changed
after she was interviewed. Mr. 'Wareham stated that the two people
February 9, 1970 31
selected volunteered to work without pay if the money was used to pay
for telephone coverage.
Also under privilege of the floor, Mr. Stutz expressed his appreciation
to veteran members of the Board for their advice and help to him in
learning about county government.
Mr. Lee stated he had a letter from the Town Board indicating their
deep concern about the refuse problem and stated they would like to be

our projection as currently outlined indicate the Town of Dryden dump
cannot sustain the rate of input for more than another six months. The
letter is on file with the Clerk.
The Chairman declared a recess at 10:34 a.m.; business resumed at
11:10 a.m.
Various committee chairmen reported as follows:
Mr. Culligan, Social and Health Services, said the committee had met
and listened to problems in many areas. A group of doctors met with
committee and are concerned about the unit fee allowed on medicaid
problems. The State allowed $5.00 one time, cut it to $4.00 then a new
ruling came in that 20% has to be billed to patient and they would like
the county to pick up the difference in money. This matter was referred
to Mr. Webster and Mr. Stutz.
He also noted that the ARC could lease the Gilbert Funeral Home.
The building remains on the tax rolls and the owner has consented to
make sanitary improvements. However, the DVR has been through the
building and will not approve it because there is not enough space.
Dr. Broad also met with the committee regarding the Sanitary Engineer
Contract with Cortland County. Cortland County is willing to share a
person with Tompkins County. Mr. Culligan was given permission to talk
with Cortland Officials regarding this contract.
Mr. Arnold and Mr. Murray from the Board of Managers of the Hos-
pital spoke to the Committee in relationship to the future of the hospital
and the possibility of hiring an architect for a study. At this time Mr.
Murray spoke to the Board regarding this subject. He said they are at a
point of going ahead and hiring an architect and get plans formulated
for a new hospital. He stated that a firm in N.Y.C. was recommended as
a consultant firm. However, other firms are going to be contacted to find
out the prices and decide what will be done. The purpose of hiring a
firm is to have their advice and experience from now until the contract is
let. He asked for authority to transfer money from their 'Enterprise Fund
into the Planning Fund, and said they are not asking for extra money.
32 February 9, 1970
Mr. Culligan also reported that the Narcotic Council is requesting the
Council be county -wide. This matter is under consideration and a de-
cision will be made.
He said a committee meeting will be held the 17th at 8:00 to review
applications for Social Services Commissioner.
Mr. Holden, Planning and Public Works Committee, said the com-
mittee met and allowed Superintendent of Public Works to write specifi-
cations for a new car. Also, the Assessment Department, having moved
into the College Building, have problems with their machines and would
like to get an estimate for going through the building with electricity and
plumbing. Also, the Finger Lakes Association is $3,000 in the budget and
they are requesting more. However, the committee recommends leaving
it the same. Also mentioned was that the committee was unanimous in
having the Superintendent of Public Works work through Buildings and
Grounds Department and Les Tottey and Library, Don McCray, then
back to committee. The Airport will be the same set up through Glenn
Turner. This procedure will be on trial basis for a while. He mentioned
that bids for a truck and material spreader have been advertised for the
Airport. The next meeting will be held March 11 at 7:30.
Mr. Culligan mentioned the committee did approve the creation of
two Practical Nurses positions at the County Home. Money is not in the
budget. The nurses are needed very badly. This matter was referred to
the Personnel Committee.
Mr. Lee, Budget and Administration, noted his committee had met
and discussed recommending appointment of consultant to the Assess-
ment Department. The have authorized the Assessment Department to
continue with tax mapping with T. G. Miller, Engineer. Further assessing
procedures will be discussed at the next meeting.
Mr. Leary noted that he felt Mrs. Saperstone should go before the
Board of Public Works Wednesday at 4:00 p.m. and get some idea of who
is going in the city space at the naval building, as there is no firm com-
mittment with the ARC. Also, he said he will conduct a tour of the
County Buildings and offices tomorrow morning for anyone that wished
to go.
Mr. Marcham, Intergovernmental Relations, said the EOC Board has
several vacancies and the Committee would like to recommend the ap-
pointment of Erie J. Miller, Jr. to replace Paul Menzies. A letter has been
written to the City requesting an appointment to replace Bill Sullivan
on the Board. He also noted that the committee had discussed the reduc-
tion of salary of the Curator of the Historical Society. The Committee is
recommending an additional appropriation. He stated that before legis-
lative resolutions are put on the floor they will be copied and sent out
to the board members to give them a chance to look them over before
February 9, 1970 33
they vote. He said the Intergovernmental Relations committee is charged
with working with the city and other municipalities in intergovernmental
cooperation regarding the appointment of a City Cooperation Commit-
tee. The committee has been appointed and he said he would like to go
into the first meeting without an agenda to find out 'what is on every-
one's mind. He said he had met with Assemblywoman Cook to discuss
the best way to go over legislation. She suggested the same procedure as
usual. A meeting is being considered to meet with Assmblywoman Cook
and Senator Smith later next month.

Various Committee Chairmen reported as follows:
Mr. Culligan, Social and Health Services, said the committee had met

dren. They discussed the Mental Health Day Care Center for mentally
retarded people in the community and the Association for Retarded
Children and the possibility of their going together into one center.
He also mentioned the committee had received a resolution from the
Hospital Board of Managers requesting the Board of Representatives to
authorize them to proceed with planning for expanded facilities to meet
the health care needs of citizens in Tompkins County. He reported that
they also discussed the nursing program and Mr. Stutz will report on
that later. He said the program is very beneficial to the hospital.
Mr. Stutz, a member of the Social Sc Health Services Committee, spoke
regarding the Practical Nursing Program. BOCES has indicated they
would have to drop the program and the possibility of having the Com-
munity College take over the program has been discussed. President
Bahar is going to Albany to try to get State Approval of the program and
he would like the support of both Tompkins and Cortland Counties in
the form of a resolution. He also reported that candidates are being inter-

had met and authorized the Planning Director to contract with a con-
sultant to find out the feasibility of the restoration of the Old Court
House. There will be a resolution later in the meeting. They also au-
thorized him to obtain an option for $100 for land for landfill opera-
tion on the Pleasant Valley Road in Groton. He also reported that the
committee discussed the office space plans in the Court House and the
majority at that time approved Alternate 3. After comments following
Mr. Liguori's presentation at the Board meeting March 2, the Planning
Department did more work on this and came up with Alternate 3A.
There will be another presentation of the plans for the Bar Association
and interested department heads later this week. Regarding the Regional
County Water Agency, they came up with a recommendation and there
will be a resolution at the next meeting regarding this.
Mr. Lee, Budget and Administration, set up a meeting for March 12
at 7:15 p.m. At this meeting they will discuss policies and procedures on
assessing. He mentioned the Grievance Days in the villages went quite
well. He also reported they will continue to pursue filling personnel
vacancies in the Assessment Department. He stated that the position of
Historic Site Caretaker had been investigated and the Commissioner
of Budget and Administration recommended that the money not be ap-
propriated as there is enough money in the budget.
Mr. Webster, Social and Health Services, reported that the committee
has agreed on the formation of a drug council. There will be a resolu-
tion presented later.
Mr. Leary, Public Safety and Correction, stated the committee met
and discussed the request from the County Clerk's Office to deputize
employees. It is the opinion of the committee to recommend this be
done and there will be a resolution later. The committee also considered
the request of the Sheriff to apply for funds for new communication
equipment, education equipment and additional crowd control equip-
ment. There will be a resolution on this later.
Sheriff Howard spoke relative to the request and said there is money
available in matching funds that we could apply for. The total request
is $27,000 of which the County would pay $9,873.41. He said the present
communication system was put in approximately 35 years ago and they
only have two telephone lines. A new system will be needed in their
offices at the complex, too. He feels the additional crowd control equip-
ment is needed to better protect the public and the deputies.
Mr. Marcham, Intergovernmental Relations, reported the City Coop-
eration Committee had met and discussed many areas of concern and
set some priorities. He also mentioned his committee and other board
members had met with Assemblywoman Cook and Senator Smith and
discussed various bills referred to them from this board. It was decided
March 9, 1970 51
to discontinue having resolutions approving and opposing legislation as
there are approximately 150 bills on one subject. Therefore, unless we
give a detailed explanation, our action is meaningless. They decided to
get together with our legislators at least once a year. Regarding the in-
vestigation of the Historic Site Caretaker position, Mr. Marcham said
the Intergovernmental Relations Committee recommends an appropria-
tion for additional funds for this position. However, this matter was
given to the Budget and Administration Committee for investigation
and that committee recommends that an appropriation not be made be-
cause there is enough money in the budget. Mr. Marcham also stated
that the committee plans to review the whole relationship of the his-
torical contents of the museum by the middle of the year. There is about
$100,000 worth of belongings there. He reported that the co -directors
of the Human Rights Commission are at work and suggested the board
members make it a point to meet them.
Mr. Marcham noted there was a vacancy on the EOC Board appoint-
ed by the County and he has recommended the name of David Stokes
but would like other recommendations also.
Mr. Miller mentioned the Town Supervisors met regarding mutual
problems and are organizing as a body to communicate between the
Board of Representatives and the Towns. They are concerned with the
sales tax situation as it is now even though it has been in progress only
eight days. They are also concerned about the way sales tax revenues
are distributed between the towns. He said if anyone is interested in
changing the method of distribution, Senator Smith suggested the Board
of Representatives pass a resolution on the county level making a request
for a change and send it to Albany. They are also concerned about the
county waste problem. The group would like to receive the Agenda's
and minutes of the Board so that they may keep better aware of what
is being done in the County.
Mr. MacNeil stated the Personnel Committee met and discussed items
mostly related to the hospital, Social Services and Mental Health and
acted on all of these matters and there will be a resolution later in the
meeting.
Mr. Dates noted there will be an Executive Committee meeting at
5:00 p.m. tomorrow.
At this time, Frank Liguori, Planning Director, noted they now have
a complete set of floor plans on all the alternate proposals including
the Court House and Building A of the complex. There were some
problems expressed with Alternate 3 at the last meeting, which is the
proposal which has the concept of putting the Court functions on the
main floor and the County Clerk functions on the ground floor. There-
fore, another alternate 3A has been worked out and he explained it to
the board.

Under privilege of the floor, Gary A. Lee, requested a committee be
formed consisting of the city representatives including the mayor and the
city attorney and all agencies that were involved in the water problems.
The group would determine the composition of a water authority, how
it could be financed and decide where the expertise of the staff would
come in. He said the time to move was now. Chairman Dates said he
would contact the Mayor to arrange a meeting. Mr. Holden said the
matter was already in the appropriate committee of the Board.
Various committee chairmen reported as follows:
Mrs. Schickel mentioned that Dr. Crispell had received a letter from
Department of Agriculture regarding possibility of Tompkins County
joining the South Central Resource Conservation and Development
Project. The letter is on file with the Clerk, and the matter was re-
ferred to the Planning and Public Works Committee.
Mr. Culligan, Social and Health Services, noted the Committee is
screening candidates for the position of Social Services Commissioner
and hope to have personal interviews and make a decision soon. He said
he had contacted Mrs. Fitzgerald, Chairman of the Board of Supervisors
in Cortland County, regarding sharing of services of a Sanitary En-
gineer by both counties and he will be hearing from her soon. He re-
ported that he and Mr. Lee met with officials of the Community College,
BOCES, the Hospital, and Mr. Duncan, N.Y.S. Employment Bureau,
regarding the Practical Nursing School.
Mr. Culligan, Social and Health Services, noted the report of the
County Treasurer to the Board in connection with all monies received
and disbursed by him for the licensing of dogs and protection of domes-
tic animals indicated the following: Total disbursements for the 'year
1969 were $18,740.62; Surplus, $14,169.30 and 75% of the above sur-
plus amounting to $10,626.98 to be apportioned to cities and towns in
38 February 23, 1970
proportion to the contribution each made. A resolution including ap-
portionment will be presented later in the meeting.
Mr. Holden, Planning and Public Works, said that his committee had
met and approved a bid for the car for the Highway Department. There
will be a resolution later awarding the bid. He also mentioned there
would be a resolution later for a transfer of funds for the Highway
Department. He reported that Tompkins County will not be in the
Central District of the Regional Planning Board but will be in direct
contact with the Southern Tier. Concerning the water, met in Executive
Session and Mr. Liguori will be attending a meeting in Albany regard-
ing this next week. Regarding the study of office space needs, he stated
he would like to adjourn this meeting to Monday, March •2 at 10:00 a.m.
to hear a presentation by Mr. Liguori and would like department heads
invited. He also mentioned bids were opened on truck and material
spreader at the Airport and a resolution will be presented later in the
meeting awarding the bid. He said there wasn't anything being done
on clearing of grounds at the airport because they have to obtain a per-
mit to burn and they will wait until they hear from the Health Depart-
ment.
Mr. Stutz reported on the need of the County Home for additional
positions of Practical Nurses because of the crowded condition there and
people that need considerable nursing. There will be something at the
next meeting regarding this. Also, the County Medical Society and par-
ticularly those members that have a good deal of Medicaid Practice are
concerned about the fact that under Medicaid Legislation now and
coming up under state regulations their fees per unit have dropped once
and will drop again so they will be making a considerably lower figure
per unit on Medicaid office patients than before. They have asked the
Committee if there was anything they could do and have proposed three
steps. 1) that we strongly urge the state to redress this position and re-
store to doctors the original figure, 2) that we assist them in billing so
they do not have to put the lower fees on the bills. Their reasoning
being they don't want to publicly advertise that they make a lower
charge than their normal unit fee, 3) we might assist them by taking
from our funds monies needed to make up the difference between the
current charge they can make and their conventional office charge. The
Committee has considered these propositions but have not yet made a
decision.
Mr. Lee, Budget and Administration, stated Mr. Payne, Director of
Assessment, is considering the possibility of establishing a common county
taxable status date. Mr. Payne will report back to committee on the
feasibility of this. Also, recommended the consideration and implemen-
tation of a common building permit throughout county to try to assist
his department in the acquisition of new property under construction,
etc. Also, Mr. Payne will have Attorney Williamson draft a resolution
relevant to a required form in conveyances of property for tax purposes
February 23, 1970 39
to assure we have maximum information available for the Assessment
Department. He is also going to implement a standard complaint form
for Grievance Day. The Committee also authorized Director Payne to
certify and verify the rolls for Tompkins County, and also write a
memo to town, city, villages relevant to Special Districts. This is a ques-
tion of whether or not the county will administer these districts to put
up the rolls. It was agreed by the Committee that welevy the ad-
ministrative charge back to the municipalities .for providing the rolls
for purposes of raising the taxes to pay money in the budget for the
district. The Committee agreed to the following tentative schedule for
adopting our proposed assessing policies and procedures:
2/10/70 - 3/1/70 — Legal Refinement and approval by County At-
torney
3/16/70 — Draft No. 1 of Policies and Procedures
4/16/70 — First Public Hearing
5/1/70 — Board of Representatives' approval by resolution
He also noted there have been requests made to him relevant to trying
to keep our committes directed toward policy making and not get in-
volved in the administrative details that have to be performed. He urged
committees, relative to administrative questions and budget questions, to
direct people to the Commissioner of Budget and Administration.
Mr. Lee also reported that they have instituted an Interim Report on
Purchasing so all department heads purchasing equipment are utilizing
an interim form to the Commissioner of Budget and Administration.
The Committee also agreed that members of the Board may file monthly
expenses or, if preferred, to do so on an annual basis.
Mr. Lee, as a member of the Social Services and Health Committee,
said he and Mr. Kerr requested the Board of Managers to write a formal
letter to this board expressing their intent to move in the direction of a
new medical facility if that is what they decide to do and this Board
would go from there as to what the appropriate course of action should
be.
At this time, Chairman Dates announced the appointment of Michael
J. Leary to serve as alternate to the City Assessment Review Board.
Mr. Marcham, Intergovernmental Relations, reported that all the
legislative resolutions were held over to give board members a chance to
see them before voting. He also mentioned the matter concerning the
Historical Society has been in both his committee and the Budget and
Administration Committee and will be brought up later. He stated his
committee is dealing with Community College regarding their budget.
After discussion, Chairman Dates requested Mr. Stutz and Mr. Lee set
up a special meeting to go over the budget. Mr. Marcham reminded the
40 February 23, 1970
Board of the luncheon meeting with Assemblywoman Cook and Senator
Smith. He noted the City has the name of John Blanchard in nomina-

tion of the School of Practical Nursing at the Tompkins County Hospi-

Ithaca, Villages of Dryden, Freeville, Groton, Cayuga Heights and Tru-
mansburg, and the Towns of Dryden, Groton, Ithaca and Ulysses.
The Clerk read a resolution from the Town Board of Lansing oppos-
ing the burning of any trees or brush at the airport.
The Clerk also read a letter received from Edward P. Abbott, Chair-
man of the Cayuga Lake Basin, concerning sewage disposal problems of
Lansing and the County and the Basin Board's investigation over the
past five years of the possibility of regionalizing the treatment of sew-
age in the interest of water quality (Referred to the Town of Lansing
by Chairman Dates) .
At this time, Chairman Dates introduced Town of Ithaca Supervisor
Walter Schwan, who is the Secretary of the newly created body consist-
ing of all town supervisors for purposes of communicating between the
towns and the county.
Chairman Dates called a recess at 7:40; business resumed at 7:53.
Under privilege of the floor, Mr. Lee stated he had received a letter
from the SPCA regarding the dog situation in Tompkins County in
which they request a committee be formed to study and evaluate this
problem and formulate recommendations for the humane control and
regulation of dogs in this county. Chairman Dates referred this matter
to the Public Safety Committee.
Mr. Lee also stated that the legislature passed a bill last year which
amended the Municipal and Real Property Law in the county which
authorizes the creation of industrial development agencies. There are
interests in the county advocating this board request the N.Y.S. Legis-
lature to pass a bill that would authorize such an agency. The Legisla-
ture adjourns in a few weeks and consequently, once it does adjourn,
we must wait until the next session. Therefore, he suggested considera-
tion that the board authorize Chairman Dates to call Assemblywoman
Cook, whom he talked with today, and she will initiate action although
the deadline for filing a bill has gone by. Hopefully by our next meet-
ing, the board will have opportunity to look at the law and by official
resolution give authority to her to introduce legislation for considera-
tion and hopeful adoption. The purpose of the agency would be to pro-
mote, develop, encourage, assist in acquiring construction, re -construct-
ing, improving, maintaining, equipping, furnishing industrial manu-
facturing, warehousing, commercial and research facilities. It shall be a
public benefit corporation with no taxing powers with right to issue
tax free bonds. Chairman Dates said he will call Assemblywoman Cook,
turn it back to committee and have them bring back a report. Mr. Lee
said if the bill is passed the board has six months in which to iron out
details and if final details cannot be agreed on, the agency is dead.
March 23, 1970 61
Mr. Marcham noted he had been discussing with Commissioner of
Budget and Administration the problem of legal ads and are trying to
work out ways of cutting down extra costs and charges. This will go
through the Budget and Administration Committee.
Chairman Dates introduced Mayor Hunna Johns and reported that
he and Mayor johns had attended a meeting at the United Fund Office.
The United Fund and other agencies in the county have been trying
to solve the problem of duplication of services — a group coming to the
Board of Representatives, City, United Fund and every agency for part
of their budget. Upon hearing no objections, he said he would continue
to attend these meetings and report back to the board.
The various committee chairmen reported as follows:
Mr. Marcham stated he has taken into consideration the question of
the Supervisors' Association existence and noted Mr. Miller has been
attending its meetings and he and Mr. Stutz will attend as soon as
possible. He also said there will be nominations to fill the vacancy
on the Human Rights Commission later in the meeting. He reported
that the Intergovernmental Committee has been meeting with city repre-
sentatives. They met Friday and undertook the first of a number of
meetings. Attending were department heads of the towns, City of Ithaca,
and the County in the area of planning. Also present were Mr. Hannan
and Mr. Dingman from the Department of Public Works in the City
and water and sewer were discussed. The next meeting will be the 9th
of April. It has been proposed by the City Cooperation Committee that
we consider having a Citizens' Advisory Committee to Intergovernmental
Relations Committee and he asked for ideas and feelings on this. He
also mentioned that his committee has been working on the Community
College Operating Budget.
Mr. Leary, Public Safety and Correction, reported that the lights in
front of the Court House will be left on all night as a deterrent to
vandalism.
Mr. Lee, Budget and Administration, noted the committee adopted
policies for the board's consideration regarding $5,000 expenditures
which have not been budgeted and suggest 1) Department head will
originate request and submit to his committee for approval, 2) If the
committee approves and personal services are not required, request is
submitted to the Commissioner of Budget and Administration for placing
of the required advertising, 3) If Committee approves and personal ser-
vices are required, requests must also be approved by the personal com-
mittee after which it is submitted to the Commissioner of Budget and
Administration for placement of advertising, 4) After appropriate ad-
vertising, request is submitted by committee to the entire board for
approval. He also mentioned the Committee has authorized Commis-
62 March 23, 1970
sioner Murphy to review and evaluate all insurance policies in county
buildings with suggestion we look at the possibility of establishing an
anniversary date so our policies expire at one common date. He also
reported that they adopted a policy relative to the utilization of the
county printing facilities in the basement. The department has made
a request to replace the existing Bruning machine and the committee
has adopted a policy that as these machines need replacement, the func-
tion of the service will be transferred to the centralized facility which
the Planning Department has programmed in the basement. The other
problem is the budget calendar. In the Charter there are certain re-
quirements that are spelled out as to how the budget must be formu-
lated. The committee has authorized Mr. Murphy to formulate a ball
park figure relative to possible income and expenditure for the next
fiscal year 1971 and report findings back to the Committee for the de-
velopment of budgetary guidelines for 1971. Once the committee has
this ironed out it will report to the Executive Committee for hopeful
adoption and Mr. Murphy will transmit these guidelines to the depart-
ment heads. He stated the negotiations confronted each year certainly
is a question in terms of the revenues we will need and expenditures we
may incur so we have recommended the chairman begin as soon as pos-
sible with the negotiations.
As Chairman of the Board of Assessors, Mr. Lee stated the Grievance
Day went well. There was one grievance in the Village of Freeville; two
in Village of Dryden; two in the Village of Cayuga Heights; two in Tru-
mansburg. These have all been satisfactorily resolved. Thomas Payne,
Director of Assessment, reported to the committee and gave us a brief-
ing on the assessment procedures for 1970 indicating that he felt he
could accomplish the field work without much difficulty and also indi-
cated no reappraisal work will be conducted during 1970.
Mr. Lee, as a member of the County Sewer Agency, reported that their
meeting held last Thursday was very successful. The next meeting will
be held April 3. There is a preliminary O'Brien Gere Report for pur-
chase available for anyone interested.
Mr. Lee reported that the proposed rules and regulations for assess-
ing are close to schedule set last month and would like to set up a public
hearing sometime in April.
Mr. MacNeil, Personnel, noted the committee has been working dili-
gently and will have a resolution later in the meeting.
Mr. Holden, Planning and Public Works, said the Committee had met
on office space plans and after discussion with the Bar Association and
department heads, the committee has a majority report advocating Alter-
nate 3A for the Court House and Alternate 2 in Bldg. A in the College
Complex.
March 23, 1970 63
Mr. Holden also stated that the State Health Department had denied
a request by the County for permission to burn trees for clearance of
land at the airport. The Committee has discussed the situation and since
Cornell Conservationists have requested that trees be cut and left on the
ground for conservation purposes, a resolution rejecting bids for burn-
ing the trees will be presented later in the meeting and new bids will
be let for the tree cutting. He said there had been a meeting with TNC
and another hearing will be scheduled later.
Mr. Holden also spoke regarding the jury being excused. He said the
Jury Commission had met and the Jury List will be revised.
Mr. Stutz, Intergovernmental Relations, stated that after interview-
ing six candidates for the position of Commissioner of Social Services,
they would like to have a second interview with Representatives with
two of the candidates Friday afternoon at 2:30 and 4:00 and for those
that can't attend, possibly set up individual evening meetings.
Mr. Culligan, Social and Health Services, read a letter from Dr. Robert
Broad concerning contracting with Cortland County for the services of
Sanitary Engineer. We were asked by Dr. Broad to check with Cortland
County to see if Tompkins County could share services because of the
salary range, in order to bring an attractive and qualified candidate
here. He said he had contacted the Chairman of the Board of Super-
visors in Cortland County but as yet has not heard from her. He also
announced a Social and Health Services Committee meeting on April
9 at 8:00 p.m.
At this time Chairman Dates declared a recess; business resumed at
8:35 p.m.
Mr. Lee, Budget and Administration, said that the Board of Managers
at the Hospital will be requesting $66,000 for a new generator for the
heating plant. He also said Mrs. DeWire and Mrs. Taylor gave a com-
prehensive presentation relative to the comprehensive health planning.
They are available to any group interested in hearing what they are at-

- Under privilege of the floor, Mr. Leary read a letter written by Mr.
Graves, who was unable to be here today, regarding the Human Rights
Commission. He stated in the letter that. Mr. Philip Allen, our recently
appointed member of the Commission, has never' been informed about
the time and place of the Commission meetings and was informed by
the Chairman, Mrs. Jacobs 'that no member would be notified. Notifica-
tion to members of time and place of meetings has been the practice since
the Commission was formed. He feels the Commission is practicing dis-
crimination, in the case of Mr. Allen or anyone else who does not agree
-with. their:philosophies. He feels that some resignations from theCom-
mission are in order. On another subject, he stated that he is in favor
of stopping the proposed (America is Bard to Find) doings at Cornell.
It is a dangerous situation considering Public Safety, plus Health and
Medical facilities. This matter was referred- to the Executive Committee.
Also, under privilege of the floor, Mrs. Schickel expressed her disap-
pointment -of the way in which .the appointment to' the Human Rights
Commission was handled .by the 'board at the last meeting. This matter
'was also referred to the Executive Committee.
Mr. Webster reported on the attempt to get a group home established
in Tompkins County. A group home is something between a' traditional
foster home and.• a child caring institution. The N.Y.S..Division for
April 13, 1970 71
Youth has -'agreed to fully finance 3-7 bed units for 15, 16, 17 year old
boys and girls. It will not be possible to begin until April, 1971, assuming
legislative approval which is needed. In the meantime, Mrs. Hughes, Act-
ing Commissioner of Social Services says we can operate a beefed up
foster home program which would in part meet our needs in this area.
It would mean paying foster parents $200/month retainer and a per
diem daily rate for each child in their area. This would not require any
new appropriation of funds.•It would mean a transfer of institutional
budgeted 'funds to foster home fund. It is his opinion that this could re-
sult in a savings to the County. In addition, the money would be spent
in the County and a better job could be done- in providing services and
he feels this to be a much more humane method of dealing with this
problem. Mrs. Hughes would like philosophical support of the board on
this matter. It was MOVED by Mr. Webster, seconded by Mr. Golder,
That the Board of 'Representatives support this. Carried.
At this time, various committee chairmen reported as follows:
,Mr. Holden, Planning and Public Works, met several times since the
last board meeting and he spoke regarding the Tompkins County Avia-
tion Association who have a tremendous interest in Tompkins County.
He noted that the committee authorized the Planning Department to
advertise for bids for Sanitary Landfill Site. Bids will be opened April
20. He also reported that the committee approved presenting a resolu-
tion for joining the South Eastern Region Planning Agency and a
resolution will be presented later in the meeting. He stated the commit-
tee met regarding . the N-.Y.S. Industrial Agency. A resolution will be
presented later on this also. The committee went over the T.N.G. Avia-
tion, Inc. agreement and made some changes. He requested a Public
Hearing for May 4th.
Mr. Culligan, Social and Health Services, noted that appointments to
fill vacancies on the Mental Health Board will be made soon. He also
said the committee had discussed the future plans of the hospital and
will be coming forth soon on this. He reported that the County Home
is in need of a new water well to be drilled and also discussed the creation
of an Institutional Farmer at the Home. He said Mrs. Hughes was at the
meeting and explained the food stamp program. Also discussed was the
position of Social Services Commissioner. Mr. Culligan requested a brief
recess for committee to meet and possibly they might be able to recom-
mend'a candidate this morning. He also reported that he has not yet
heard from Cortland County regarding sharing the services of a Sanitary
Engineer.
Mr. Leary mentioned that the City of Ithaca Common Council turned
down• the $6000. request from ARC. Mr. Culligan noted that the Social
and Health Services Committee had also voted not to give them any
more funds this year:
72 April 13, 1970
Mr. Stutz, Social and Health, reported that the recommended position
of Institutional Farmer will be presented later in the meeting. The Com-
mittee approved the budget for the food stamp program and hope to
present this on April 27th. The advertising has already been done.
Mr. Leary, Public Safety and Correction, reported that the committee
has been concerned about the meetings on the Cornell Campus April
17-19 and are formulating plans to take care of traffic problems, health
conditions, etc. Mr. Dates noted that the District Attorney is taking the
responsibility of keeping in touch with the proper departments in-
volved.
Mr. Marcham, Intergovernmental Relations, noted he had asked the
board if they had anyone they wished to be considered for the Citizens
Advisory Committee to let him know and since no one did they moved
ahead and decided to ask outside advisors, that they selected, to come
before the Board with one report per month for the next four months
to help the Board move ahead in certain areas where other committees
may be working where they feel a special need to see if the City and
County are cooperating. The first area is water and the first question
to be answered is, Is the proposed City of Ithaca and Town of Ithaca
Water Authority an impediment to the creation of a water district? In
June they will ask for a report on the Solid Waste question — Is addi-
tional legislation or action required by our boards? In July they hope
to have a report on Recreation. They will ask what steps may be needed
to organize a county -wide recreation program. The Sales Tax seeks to
explore where the sales tax is now and where we would like it to be at
the end of the year. Mr. Marcham also noted that the Human Rights
Commission are trying to get a professional 24-hour telephone number.
He also said the committee discussed the question of how to get all their
business done. They have come up with two alternatives to present to
the Executive Committee on the 20th. 1) Recommend the reduction of
responsibilities or 2) The increase of size of the committee. He stated the
Committee is behind with written reports and hoped his oral report
today would suffice.
At this time, Mr. Dates stated that he will be issuing two Proclama-
tions 1) Senior Citizens and 2) Earth Day later.
Mr. Dates declared a recess at 10:40; business resumed at 10:57.

Mr. Marcham, Intergovernmental Relations, stated the committee met
with the City's Committee specifically to discuss the use of DeWitt Jr.
High School as a possible site for community charitable agencies to
have their offices. The City is not interested in putting money into it
but thought the county might. The committee decided against it. How-
ever, they feel the building is very important to the development of this
area in which the county has a great stake. For this reason, the commit-
tee decided to turn this back to another committee. They are asking the
Planning Boards of the City, County, and Town of Ithaca to consider
various uses of space around DeWitt Park which affects parking lots and
other things proposed for land the county owns, the development of
the mtiseum as well as DeWitt Jr. High School. The second discussion
dealt with the four temporary advisory committees that were created a
short time ago and the first one to report was the water committee. It was
decided that the city's being a part of the first county water district
was important and are going to urge the city to take part. Mr. Marcham
feels if the city is left out of water planning, it will not be included in
the future and there will be an incomplete water system for the area
around the City of Ithaca.
Mr. Marcham also stated that the Fifth District of the City is greatly
affected by the University's parking and traffic control system and urge
the University to keep in touch with the County Planning Office so
that this traffic can be better controlled.
At this time, it was MOVED by Mr. Culligan, seconded by Mr.
Graves, That resolutions pertaining to reduction of interest penalties and
community college students, not on the agenda, be considered at this
time. Carried.
RESOLUTION NO. 120 —Awarding of Bid for Operation of Refuse
Disposal Site No. 1
Mr. Holden offered the following resolution and moved its adoption:
WHEREAS, the County of Tompkins has duly advertised for bids to oper-
ate a sanitary landfill site for the sanitary disposal of refuse to serve an area
136 May 25, 1970
including the City of Ithaca, Village of Cayuga Heights, Towns of Ithaca,
Newfield, Danby, Caroline, and designated as Site No. 1, and
WHEREAS, bids were received on April 20, 1970, and have been thoroughly
evaluated in the best interest of the people of Tompkins County, and
WHEREAS, bids were received from Carpenter's Backhoe and Dozer
Service, Incorporated, and Landstrom Gravel Company, and
WHEREAS, the low bidder, Carpenter Backhoe and Dozer Service, In-
corporated, submitted a bid of $90,000 for one year's operation for a three-
year renewable period, plus a charge of $.15 for one cubic yard or $.10 per
ton for bulk waste not including ordinary refuse and $1.00 per ton for
stumps, and
WHEREAS, said low bidder intends to operate the sanitary landfill sites on
lands to be leased from a second party off the Bostwick Road partly in the
Town of Ithaca and partly in the Town of Enfield, and
WHEREAS, in the judgment of the Planning and Public Works Committee,
the County Commissioner of Planning, the County Commissioner of Public
Works, and the County Attorney said bid is deficient and not in the best
interest of the people of Tompkins County for the following reasons:
1) An evaluation of the 150 acres of land as submitted in bid indicates
that a section of 70 acres are unavailable in that it lies in the Town of Ithaca
and is subject to a zoning restriction. Furthermore, the above 70 acres and
an additional 20 acres, have, as best can be determined, a limited and un-
clear access through the property of an unwilling third party who has indi-
cated the possibility of legal action to prevent the crossing of his property
for access to the lands proposed for use as a refuse disposal site.
2) Of the remaining 60 acres, approximately 32 acres are isolated from
reasonable accessibility by a deep gully. Furthermore, 12 of these 60 acres,
more or less, are useable only if a stream is diverted to eliminate surface
drainage. The remaining 16 acres of land in the 60 -acre section are in an
open field unscreened from view, presenting public relations problems and
is contrary to local policy for site selection.
3) The unrestricted and unconditional land available for operation is not
sufficient to insure a secure contract for the three-year period. Engineering
estimates indicate a need of 30 acres of effective land for the three-year
period to meet the minimum land requirements to cover the Carpenter bid,
now therefore be it
RESOLVED, That the said Carpenter bid is hereby rejected as not pro-
viding adequate security in the operation of this large and important refuse
disposal operation to serve up to 60,000 people in the County of Tompkins,
and be it further
RESOLVED, That the next higher bid submitted by the Landstrom Gravel
Company for the operation of a site on land owned by Landstrom partly in
the Town of Danby and partly in the Town of Spencer, having met all
specifications including land requirements, including at least 88 acres of
satisfactory and useable land and including unencumbered unrestricted access
to the land, is hereby awarded the bid for an amount of $99,226 for a one-
year period with renewal provisions for three years and with no separate
charges to be made to the people of Tompkins County for bulk wastes, and
be it further
RESOLVED, That the Chairman of the Board of Representatives is here-
by authorized to execute a contract with the Landstrom Gravel Company
upon submission by said Company of the following documents, not later than
June 26, 1970.
—Formal approval of a plan for operation of this site in accordance with
the regulations of the New York State Department of Healrh
— Certificate of insurance and workmen's compensation as required in bid
specifications
— Performance Bond as required in bid specifications
— Such other documents and facilities as may be required by the terms of
the contract
May 25, 1970 137
—Consent of any mortgagee for the use of the land for refuse disposal,
if so required
RESOLVED, That operation of said refuse disposal site shall commence
on or about July 1, 1970.
Seconded by Mr. Leary.
Mr. Carpenter spoke regarding his bid on the Refuse Disposal Site and
stated he feels his bid is a legitimate one.
Mr. David Gersh spoke on behalf of 25-30 residents of the area which
is the area of Mr. Carpenter's bid. They strongly oppose the selection
of his site because the area is fairly well developed with a great deal of
building taking place.
A voice vote was taken at this time and the resolution was Carried.

Various committee chairmen reported at this time as follows:
Mr. Kerr, Health and Social Services, noted that the committee and
the Personnel Committee met to further investigate the positions in the
x-ray department at the hospital.
Mr. Culligan, Health and Social Services, noted the committee will
meet Thursday, June 11th at 8:00 p.m. He also stated that the Mental
Health Department and Day Care Center need attention.
Mr. Holden, Planning and Public Works, reported that bids were
opened on the bridge in McLean. The low bid was $83,568.55 and since
there was only $60,000 budgeted, this will have to be advertised per
rules of the Board that state anything over $5,000 must be advertised.
Also,the 1968 roller at the Department of Public Works has to be re-
paired and will cost approximately $8,000; therefore, this will have to be
advertised too. The committee is recommending the Seymore Site for
Site No. 2 for Sanitary Landfill however, it has to be readvertised
stating the site will be open two days per week. There will be a resolution
later. The committee is recommending a site for the Dryden -Groton -Lan-
sing area in the Town of Dryden.
Mr. Holden noted that he and the Commissioner of Public Works
met with the Town Board of Danby regarding the use of their roads
146 June 8, 1970
for the trucking of landfill material. He stated they didn't feel the
county wanted to take over the roads but would agree to the exchange
of roads, then if the land wasn't used for landfill site, the land would
revert back. The Commissioner of Public Works will try to work this
out.
Regarding the Airport, Mr. Holden stated there will be a resolution
pertaining to the clearing of the NW and SE approach zones later in the
meeting.
At this time, Mr. Lee stated that the County Planning Board should
be appointed. Mr. Dates requested that this be clone at our next meeting.
Mr. MacNeil, Personnel, noted the committee met and discussed the
x-ray department at the hospital and some positions at the airport, and
there will be a report later on this.
Mr. Lee, Budget and Administration, reported that the assessment
rolls have been filed with the Town Clerks which is a new procedure.
Next week the preliminary hearings will be held. The purpose of the
hearings are to eliminate clerical errors and other types of errors to
eliminate the necessity of having to file an official grievance on Griev-
ance Day. Director Payne has reported that this has been an average
to below average year in terms of projected increase in assessed valua-
tion for the county. Therefore, an average year for the last three or four
years has been about $10 million so this would have some impact as
they move forward in their budget formulation.
Mr. Lee also mentioned that they are in the process of formulating a

Various Committee Chairmen reported at this time:
Mr. Graves questioned the decision of the Tompkins County Library
Trustees to restrict investigation of library records by outside persons.
This was referred to the County Attorney for a ruling.
_Mr. Culligan, Health and Social Services, reported that Dr. Broad,
according to the Charter, reported on recommendations for meeting the
public health needs of the County. He also noted that in the Handi-
capped Childrens' Program, in a few severe cases the amount will
probably exceed the budgeted amount of money. However, there may
be some area.for transfer of monies. In the area of orthodontia, it was felt
this should be tightened up and Dr. Broad is to proceed on this. Dr.
Broad is looking for a Senior Public Health Engineer. It appears that
the salary grade will have to be raised.
v1r. Culligan also reported that the Senior Citizens Council, in order
to obtain state aid, must have an Advisory Committee to oversee the
program. Therefore, names will be submitted for appointment later in
the meeting. He said he hopes to have a representative here to address
the board on matters of recreation in general soon.
Mr. Culligan stated that the Mental Health Clinic is in good working
order. He said there has been a large increase in patients. A 10 -bed
ward at the hospital was established and has been approved by the Board
of Managers and renovation has begun. The Psychiatrist position to
replace Dr. Poucher, who retired, has not been filled yet. Due to the
salary range it has been difficult to fill this position. He suggested the
salary grade be increased to Grade 23 with a starting salary of $30,000.
He feels when this position is filled, Tompkins County will have one of
the finest Mental Health Programs in New York State.
In the area of Social Services, a resolution will be presented later in
the meeting requesting a change in the office working hours of the
Social Services Department.

Program at the Sheriff's Department is proceeding and the County
will receive $2.00 for every card issued.
He also said the Inspection Report for the Jail has been received
from the New York State Department of Correction. He is very pleased
with the results. They recommended that an intercom system be in-
stalled to eliminate the need for radios in the cells as they sometimes
become annoying to others. They also recommended a recreation pro-
gram but the lack of space makes this difficult.
Mr. Leary also mentioned the Civil Defense meeting that was held
in Montour Falls and was very well attended. He commended Doris
Levy, Director of Civil Defense, for being so well versed in Civil
Defense Work.
Mr. Lee questioned •if the County Hospital physician could perform

vicinity of the refuse site.
8) The county shall continue to investigate ways and means of improving
operations and refuse disposal methods, and shall strive for a high

paired. She is interested in preserving the house for historical and tourist

Mr. Ronald Space, Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Tomp-
kins -Cortland Community College, spoke concerning the fee schedule for
the architect. He said the preliminary schematic design shows one build-
ing. Mr. Marcham said he would like this meeting adjourned to October

Various committee chairmen reported as follows:
NIr. Marcham, Intergovernmental Relations, reported on the library
policy of privacy of records. The Board of Trustees of the Library
would like to meet with the Board regarding the Board of Representa-
tive's recent resolution requesting the library to rescind their policy
denying access to records to all persons except library employees. He also
announced the appointment of Alvin Knepper, made at the September
12th meeting to fill the unexpired term of Desdemona Jacobs, has been

said term 'expiring December 31, 1972. He also mentioned that he attend-
October 12, 1970 211
ed a meeting of the County Officers' Association in Horseheads. The
main item of discussion was a legislation for sharing of state aid. Also
discussed was aid to the Extension Service and the state will be asked
to decide if they are going to give more support to this.
Mr. Marsham stated that the Boardman House is in such bad shape
that it would be less expensive for the county to demolish it rather than
repair. A new roof and chimney is needed to get through the winter at
an estimated cost of $18,000 for the roof and $3,000 for the chimney. He
said a proposal was made from private groups that an attempt be made
to restore two buildings on DeWitt Park — the Old Court House and the
Boardman House. He feels the Old Court House is more important.
The cost of saving these two buildings is approximately 1/2 million
dollars. However, he said it is conceivable that as much as 50% aid would
be available, therefore; he feels if the county can get enough evidence
of community -Support' to. help pay for the restoration, then it might be
feasible. This matter will"be studied further and a decision made soon.
At this time, Mr. Culligan stated his committee will meet Thursday,
October 13 at 7:30 p.m. He stated the By -Laws of the Tompkins County
Hospital needs board approval, hopefully at the next meeting.

spoke about the plan which will provide staff doctors for seven clays a
week, 16 hours a day emergency and out-patient coverage for people
using the emergency room. He said if physicians can be hired in -time,
coverage should. start November 1. The plan will be included in the
hospital budget for the next fiscal year but $6250 is needed to pay the
salaries for a two-month period for three men. The physicians who will be
retained by the hospital at a rate of $25,000 per year, per physician, will
be primarily responsible for accident room admissions. They would also
respond to emergency needs of in-hospital patients until attending
physicians could get there. The service is anticipated to be self-supporting
since patients will be charged regular fees.
Mr. Holden, Planning and Public Works, stated there was discussion
of the forming of the County Planning Board and this will be discussed
further. He also mentioned the covering of the paneling in the County
Clerk's Office was discussed but he was the sole member of the committee
that was in favor of this. He said the matter of the Boardman House
has been discussed in committee and a decision will be made as soon
as possible. He said the windows of the Court House are going to be
glazed as they are all in bad condition and there will be a change order
for this. Regarding the Resource Conservation and Development
Project, appointments of representatives is being studied further. He

The Chairman recessed the meeting for a presentation by the Archi-
tects of the Community College.
At this time Chairman Dates introduced Honorable Hushang Bahar,
President of the Tompkins -Cortland Community College, who intro-
duced the architects and officials of the college.
Architects Caudill, Rowlett and Scott and Levatich, Miller and Hoff-
man and Planner Robert Mann, presented their proposal for the con-
struction of the Tompkins -Cortland Community College. The cost is
$32 per square foot. It was noted that double use of the facilities has
been worked for and the college is being designed to run day and night.
The proposal, including Phase I and II of construction show the largest
amount of square feet is to be used for the Learning Resource Center
and Student activities area. Most of the Phase I construction will be
classrooms, administration and student centers. The larger projects, i.e.,
swimming pool, theater, gym, is left to the Phase II. Phase I will allow
115 square foot per student. The addition of larger spaces in the second
phase will bring the total to approximately 140 square feet per student.
Mr. Ellis M. Rowland from the State University of New York said the
State usually asks for 160 square feet but the presentation today was
excellent and realistic in cost. The State University must approve this
plan because it pays 50 per cent of the cost. Mr. Richard Sawicki of
Caudill, Rowlett and Scott, said if the capital budget can be approved
soon, some clearing, leveling and etc. can be done this fall. Construction
of Phase I will begin in the Spring with a completion date of September
1972. Mr. Marcham thanked everyone for an excellent presentation and
the Chairman called the meeting back to order.

Membership in the South Central New York
Regional Conservation and Development
Project
Mr. Holden offered the following resolution and moved its adoption:
WHEREAS, the Tompkins County Soil and Water Conservation District,
after thorough study, resolved on September 10, 1970, to seek membership in
the South Central New York Regional Conservation and Development Project
(which includes seven neighboring counties) and,
WHEREAS, the Soil and Water Conservation District has requested that
the Tompkins County Board of Representatives cosponsor said application
for membership and,
October 26, 1970 223
WHEREAS, Tompkins County is richly endowed with natural' resources,
many of which may be improved for the benefit of all peoples in the county
by sound planning and development through the guidance of the said Resource
Conservation Development Project, be it therefore
RESOLVED, upon the recommendation of the Planning and Public Works
Committee, That this Board cosponsor an application for membership in the
South Central New York Regional Conservation and Development Project.
Seconded by Mr. Miller. Carried.
RESOLUTION NO. 239 — Approval of Expenditure of Monies for
Construction of Community College
Mr. Marcham offered the following resolution and moved its adoption:
WHEREAS, the Trustees and staff of the Tompkins -Cortland Community
College presented their plans for the construction of the new campus for
said college, now therefore be it
RESOLVED, upon recommendation of the Intergovernmental Relations
Committee, That this Board authorizes the architects for Phase I of college
construction to proceed to develop schematic design drawings and more de-
tailed cost figures within a tentative budget not to exceed $8,656,800 of which
$1,517,500 has been previously committed leaving a balance of $7,139,300 all
in accordance with the copy of the Capital Budget - Projected Cost Summary
copy of which is filed with the Clerk of the Board of Representatives.
RESOLVED, further, That the Intergovernmental Relations Committee, in
cooperation with the Cortland County Board of Supervisors, is authorized to
negotiate with a cost control firm to serve the college sponsors in analyzing
and making recommendations to the sponsors on preliminary and final design
of the college and cost figures for its construction,
RESOLVED, further, That the County Attorney be and he hereby is au-
thorized and directed to contact Sykes, Galloway and Dikeman, Bond Attor-
neys, in New York City, for the preparation of the necessary bond resolution
for the financing of said construction,
RESOLVED, further, That this resolution is contingent upon the adoption
of same by the Cortland County Board of Supervisors.
RESOLVED, further, That the Clerk of the Board forward certified copies
of this resolution to the Clerk of the Board of the Cortland County Board
of Supervisors and to the Commissioner of Budget and Administration.
Seconded by Mr. Stutz. A lengthy discussion followed and Mr. Mar-
cham said a cost control firm would be about $30,000. They would be
interviewing three firms. It was brought to the board's attention that
they would have two other opportunities to review the architects' plans
— the schematic design drawings and the detailed plans prior to being
put to bid. Phase I, about 160,000 square feet to accommodate 1,400
students, would cost approximately $8.6 million. Phase II, adding 100,000
in coming years to accommodate 1,900 students, would cost an addi-
tional $3.2 million. The apparent difference in square foot costs between
the college proposal at $32 and BOCES vocational school at $18.90 two
years ago was due to strike conditions with firms bidding that were
eager for work. BOCES is one-story, no library or lecture halls, simple
cafeteria, and few faculty -administrative offices. On a per -pupil basis,
BOCES would cost $5800 per student in comparison with $6100 per
student at the community college.
224 October 26, 1970
MOVED by Mr. Graves, seconded by Mr. Leary, That Resolution No.
239 be amended to cut $1 million from the construction budget.
Discussion brought out the facts that this would entail limiting the
building which is presently barely meeting the 115 square -foot -per stu-
dent minimum. Cutbacks in site, utilities and furnishings could not
offer substantial savings.
A rollcall vote resulted as follows: Ayes — Representatives Graves,
Holden, and Leary — 3. Noes — Representatives Bruce, Dates, Golder,
Kerr, MacNeil, Marcham, Schickel and Stutz —, 8. Absent — Represen-
tatives Abbott, Culligan, Lee, Webster and Miller — 5. Motion LOST.
MOVED by Mr. Graves, seconded by Mr. Leary, That Resolution No.
239 be TABLED until November 2nd meeting.
A rollcall vote resulted as follows: Ayes — Representatives Bruce, Dates,
Golder, Graves, Holden, Kerr (think the full board should be here) ,
Leary, MacNeil and Schickel — 9. Noes — Representatives Marcham and
Stutz — 2. Absent — Representatives Abbot, Culligan, Lee, Miller, Web-
ster — 5. Motion to TABLE — Carried.

Budget and Administration Committee on the footing of assessment rolls
which were laid on the table one day under the rule.

November 2, 1970 235
MOVED by Mr. Lee, seconded by Mr. Graves, Thatthe resolution
APPORTIONMENT OF MORTGAGE TAX, not on the agenda, be
considered at this meeting.. Carried.
MOVED by Mr. Marcham, seconded by Mr. Stutz, That Resolution
No. 239, Tabled at the meeting of October 26th be lifted from the table.
Carried.
RESOLUTION NO. 239—Approval of Expenditure of Monies for
Construction of Community College
(see page 223 of October 26, 1970) was MOVED by Mr. Marcham and
seconded by Mr. Stutz.
Mr. Graves reported results of a computer analysis showing per pupil
costs for Tompkins County to be 88% higher than Cortland County by
the cost-sharing formula agreement between the two counties in 1966.
Ronald Space, chairman of the Tompkins -Cortland Community College
Board of Trustees, cited the state education law which says capitol costs
must be apportioned on the basis of assessed valuation but that operating
costs, however, can be apportioned on the basis of the number of students
from each sponsoring county. John Murphy presented cost -per -student
figures based on the 1970-71 budget and 1970 fall enrollment. It was
suggested that the Intergovernmental Relations Committee review the
cost sharing with both sponsoring counties according to State law.
MOVED by Mr. Golder, seconded by Mr. Culligan, That Resolution
No. 239 be AMENDED to establish the total project cost of $8,200,000
for Phase I.
Mr. Golder felt the place to approach this was at the building cost and
recommended a figure of $30 per square foot instead of $32.
Mrs. Schickel stated the hiring of a cost -control firm mentioned in
the resolution would perhaps answer many of the questions brought forth
today. The committee has interviewed three firms.
Mr. Space defended the excellent job of arriving at square footage of
Phase I with increased space efficiency, concern for construction cost and
choice of architects. It was felt that Caudill, Rowlett, Scott had sufficient
expertise in cost control but if the sponsoring boards wished to hire
their own firm, the Tompkins -Cortland Community College would not
stand in their way.
Roll call on the amendment to cut square footage to $30 resulted as
follows: Ayes — Representatives Culligan, Golder, Graves, Holden, Leary,
and Lee — 6. Noes — Representatives Bruce, Dates, Kerr, MacNeil,
Marcham, Miller, Schickel, Stutz, Webster — 9. Absent — Representative
Abbott — 1. MOTION LOST.
236 November 2, 1970
MOVED by Mr. Graves, seconded by Mr. MacNeil that Resolution No.
239 be AMENDED to be contingent upon the revision of the agreement
adopted September 26, 1966 between Cortland and Tompkins Counties
relative to the apportionment of Tompkins -Cortland Community College
operating expenses.
In discussion of the proposed amendment Mr. Marcham said we could
be working against ourselves by delaying action while the sponsors de-
bated cost sharing and the further we go into the spring the harder it is
to get a favorable bid.
Roll call on the above amendment resulted as follows: Ayes — Repre-
sentatives Culligan, Graves, Kerr, Leary, Lee and . Miller — 6. Noes —
Representatives Bruce, Dates, Golder, Holden, MacNeil, Marcham,
Schickel, Stutz and Webster — 9. Absent — Representative Abbott — 1.
MOTION LOST:
Roll call vote on the original Resolution No. 239 resulted as follows:
Ayes Representatives Bruce, Dates, Golder, Kerr, Lee ("I ask that the
county attorney draft a resolution to open up cost sharing more in line
for both counties") , MacNeil ("I concur with Mr. Lee") , Marcham ("I
agree . with Mr. Lee and Mr. MacNeil') , Schickel, Stutz, Webster — 10.
Noes — Representatives Culligan, Graves, Holden, Leary ("I want it
clearly understood that I am not opposed to the community college. I am
voting no for my constituents who are oppressed by taxes") , Miller ("It is
not that I don't trust Mr. Space or Mr. Mann but because of the total cost
and the people I serve I vote no") — 5. Absent — Representative Abbott —
1. CARRIED.
Mr. Dates directed County Attorney Robert Williamson to open new
negotiations with the proper committees of both boards.
Mr. Culligan announced a meeting of the Social and Health Services
Committee immediately following the board meeting. There is now a
vacancy on the Board of Managers of the Hospital and if anyone has
suggestions, please contact Mr. Culligan.
Mr. Kerr reported on X -Ray Technical Training School at the Hos-
pital. Five students were selected, four from Tompkins County and one
from Moravia in Cayuga County. The school is using rooms in the
hospital tower. The initial evaluation of students has been most satis-
factory in all respects. The school has been approved by the New York
State Health Department, Veterans' Administration, and the American
Medical Association. Graduates are eligible to take exams for license with
Civil Service and also registry under the American Society of Radiological
Technicians. They anticipate adding another five students for a full

Under privilege of the floor, Mr. Leary, Public Safety and Correction
Committee, brought before the board the possibility of supporting a
joint County -City contract with the Society for Prevention of Cruelty to
Animals to provide a single county -wide service covering humane work,
protection of livestock, and the enforcement of existing leash and related
clog -control laws and nuisance calls. He recommended that city and
county committees prepare resolutions for a dollar -sharing formula. A
contract with the Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals for a one
year period with a joint city -county committee to review progress quarter-
ly was suggested. Neal McLain of the SPCA Board told of expanding dog
population problems. A proposed budget for 1971 of $31,000 would pro-
vide twenty-four hour telephone coverage, two full-time circulating
wardens, and one full-time and one part-time worker at the Hanshaw
Road shelter. The wardens would concentrate on problem areas besides
handling complaint calls. A possible cost sharing of sixty percent for the
county and forty percent for the city was mentioned. The Agriculture
and Markets Law mandates a dog warden for the city.

had met four times on the Community College. They had met with
Supervisor Frank Taylor of the Cortland County Board to interview firms
on cost control. Final selection of a firm is expected this week. Re -negotia-

PUBLIC HEARING
December 21, 1970 - 8:00 P.M.
Approximately forty people attended the public hearing to hear the
Tompkins County Civil Service Employees' Association Negotiating Com-
mittee and the County's Negotiating Committee present their positions.
The major differences are in salary increases; the County proposes a 6%
increase for all those employees who would be raised an increment. The
increase would be calculated on the present salary. The fact finder's
report recommended a 5.8% increase on top of each increment. The
employees' assumption is the normal increments have already been nego-
tiated as a condition of employment and cost of living raises should be in
excess of increments. Also there is disagreement for payment of unused
sick leave upon resignation or retirement.
Joseph Roedel questioned the money that was set aside in the 1971
budget to administer the increase in salaries. Mr. Murphy explained
that in the budget the salary adjustment was not known so dollars were
put in the budget. The reserves were put in two places. The fringe
benefits were put in the line items.
Richard Murdock questioned the mileage rate per mile. Mr. Murphy
said this is not in the contract. The mileage rate is set by the Board of
Representatives.
Mr. Marcham, Representative of the 5th Ward, asked John Shipherd,
co-chairman of the Civil Service Employees' Association Negotiating
Committee, if he had any comment regarding the comparison of County
salaries with private and public employment. Mr. Shipherd stated the
evidence submitted to the factfinder by PERB showing figures on a state-
wide level were fairer in the negotiating team's opinion. The County
has consistently maintained that its salary level is in favorable com-
parison with salaries in other counties in the area. Mr. Marcham also
asked whether the County employees acted upon or expressed them-
selves on the offer of the County. Mr. Shipherd said the County offer has
remained consistent throughout negotiations and employees have had
the opportunity to voice their opinions. Mr. Marcham questioned Mr.
Shipherd on retroactivity. Mr. Shipherd said from the information they
have from employees, he could not recommend any settlement for
approval unless it is retroactive.
Upon hearing no further questions, the Chairman thanked everyone
for attending and thanked both negotiating committees for the many
hours of their time spent on negotiations.
The Public Hearing was adjourned at 9:00 P.M.
December 28, 1970 351

Syracuse, Rochester, New York and several other cities are plagued with
growing welfare rolls and shrinking jobs, and
WHEREAS, a program of austerity does not seem to coincide with an
economy based on consumption, it would seem that the state should initiate
an immediate program to restore the normal activities of all bureaus, and
WHEREAS, welfare and unemployement insurance payments are at best
palliatives which treat only the effect of our plight and do not reach the
cause for which we recommend the immediate consideration of creating work
in several phases of the pollution problem which can be attacked right now,
and
WHEREAS, past experience in depressions and recessions indicate that
the restoration of purchasing power is an effective key to restoring economic
health, now therefore be it
RESOLVED, That the Governor consult with the Legislature on the open-
ing of the 1971 Session for the purpose of providing monies for the initiation
of job -creating programs, for appropriate laws which will ease the burden
on certain cities where unemployment is greatest, to cancel the state austerity
program which in action promotes inefficiency and waste as many high
salaried employees are forced to proceed at half speed due to the lack of
ordinary essential services and conveniences and finally forthright intelligent
facing of the facts and the development of a program to meet them.

SUMMARY OF
ANNUAL REPORT — COOPERATIVE EXTENSION ASSOCIATION
(Detailed report on file in the office of
the Clerk of the Board of Representatives)
Commercial Agriculture
Dairy farming is the largest farm enterprise in the county. The most
recent figures show that slightly more than 250 dairymen sold nearly 126
million pounds of milk for over 7.2 million dollars This was an increase
of six million pounds of milk over the previous year which combined
with a slightly higher price brought in an additional $700,000 into the
county. 'In addition there is an estimated 1.5 million dollars gross income
from cull dairy animals and surplus dairy calves and field crops in the
county. Extension's educational program with the dairy and field crop
farmers is carried out by three specialists in the Dairy and Field Crops
Team that works in Tompkins County. A major overall objective of
their program is to help retain this important industry in Tompkins
County by helping our dairymen remain competitive with dairymen from
other areas. A major emphasis of this year's program has been to help
dairymen analyze their situation and plan for desirable changes in their
operations.
Although the number of poultry farms in the county is relatively small,
they generate more than an estimated 2.7 million dollars for our
economy. The extension poultry specialist has provided answers for many
different types of problems during the past year.
Home Grounds
One of the main objectives of the program is to provide homeowners
with information that will help them to develop and maintain their
property so as to make a contribution towards improving our general
environment at the same time it helps the individuals to make the best
use of the resources available to them.
Home Economics Division
The major objectives of the Home Economics Division in 1970 focused
on the concerns of families that relate to improving the "quality of liv-
ing"., The Division has experimented with several methods of reaching
those most in need of Extension's informal approach to providing sound
factual information. The top priority has been Nutrition with emphasis
on the poorly fed family. The emphasis on reaching young families has
come closer to achievement this year. A third objective has been to have
Proceedings of the Board of Representatives 457
Cooperative Extension recognized as the resource center for unbiased
Home Economics information. To this end, efforts have been directed
towards three groups. Another area of concern has been using the full
potential of available manpower especially womanpower.
4-H Division
The 4-H program is the official youth program of the Cooperative Ex-
tension Association of New York State in cooperation with USDA, Cornell
University and county government.
4-H is a dynamic youth educational program with its primary success
through the training of hundreds of volunteer adult leaders. Its primary
purpose is to serve the needs of people and prepare the young people of
our society to "learn for living".
Readers of this report must take specific note to understand that the
4-H Division is offering programs to four distinct groups in Tompkins
County which are: adult and junior volunteer leaders, 4-H clubs, special
4-H interest groups, and other one-time 4-H instruction programs for
other youth groups and schools.
Therefore the priority audiences of 4-H in Tompkins County are
as follows:
1. Community 4-H Clubs
2. Disadvantage Youth and Adults
3. Youth Not in 4-H Clubs
4. Teens
Target Areas for 4-H in Tompkins County:
1. Parents
2. Drug Abuse
3. Environmental Quality
Some Major Objectives for Tompkins County 4-H in 1970 were:
1. To provide District 4-H Leaders with training program, information
about their 4-H clubs in their areas, leadership for elections and
terms, and help in organization and maintenances of club and com-
munity activities.
2. To provide Tompkins County with a sound volunteer leader system
enhancing the educational output to youth.
3. To teach youth skills in subject matter areas in Home Economics,
Agriculture, and Science.
a. Safety Programs
458 Tompkins County, New York
b. Conservation
c. Embryology—Sex education, Understanding of Life
d. Home Economics subject matter
4. To provide a program to recognize leadership and increase citizen.
ship development in young people through supporting programs.
5. To provide the opportunity for 4-H members to attend camp. To
learn skills, live together, and share in the decision making affect-
ing their own age group.
6 To provide programs in animal science.
7. To provide contributing educational opportunites.
8. To help teen-age youth learn knowledge and develop skills necessary
to plan for their future.
Three Cooperative Extension 4-H Agents provide the administrative
and total leadership for a county 4-H program reaching between 40% to
50% of the eligible youth, more than 500 volunteer leaders, hundreds of
Tompkins County families and between 25 to 50 associated organizations
and agencies throughout the county. This staff assists in the leadership for
the total Cooperative Extension effort in all of Tompkins County in-
cluding assistance for finances, personnel, and long range planning,
public relations, and the administration of the total 4-H effort including
the training program assistance and supervision of volunteer leaders,
school teachers, and other agency personnel.
Expanded Nutrition Education Program
This has been the first full year the ENEP has been in operation. The
objectives of this program are as follows:
1. To increase low income families' knowledge about the essentials
of good nutrition.
2. To increase low income families' ability to select food that satisfied
nutritional needs.
3. To increase low income families' ability to prepare and serve palat-
able meals.
4. To increase low income families' ability to understand and manage
available resources, including money, time and donated foods.
Community Resource Development
A project was carried out for the purpose of identifying the land in
Tompkins County that is currently used by commercial farmers in their
farming operations. The preliminary work in this project has been com-
pleted. Farm and community leaders in each town have identified on
aerial photos, land currently being usedfor field crops by medium and
large sized farm operations. This information will be summarized and
made available to the interested groups in the towns. One town has al-
ready used this information in connection with a ,701 planning project.
Proceedings of the Board of Representatives 459
The. Greenbelt sub -committee of Extension's Community Resource De-
velopment Committee has continued their work. They have promoted the
establishment of a County Environmental Management Council. This
concept was presented and explained to many different organizations in
the county. The organizations that agreed with this idea were asked to
indicate their support to the Board of Representatives. The -proposal has
been presented to the proper committee of that Board is presently
receiving their consideration. The purpose of the Council is to identify
and inventory those natural features of the county that should receive
special consideration for their contribution to our environment as future
plans are developed.
Cooperation was given to the Soil and Water Conservation District
Directors in the development of a program to explain the Resource Con-
servation and Development program which they are planning to join.
This has been approved by the Board of Representatives and the final
application is being made to the seven county Resource Conservation
and Development District.

SUMMARY OF
ANNUAL REPORT — 1970 DEWITT HISTORICAL SOCIETY
submitted by
Helena Schaber, Curator
Detailed report on file in the office of
the Clerk of the Board of Representatives)
The DeWitt Historical Society experienced a busy year with many
calls for service particularly from high school and college students doing
research.
Registered attendance totaled 3,503 with at least another 500 who
came but did not register. Of visitors who registered, Tompkins County
residents totaled 2,182; from elsewhere in the state, 255; from 26 other
states, 155; and from 10 foreign countries, 24. A registered attendance of
887 came from group meetings including school classes, Scouts and
Campfire Girls and those from the South Lansing School for Girls.
There were 83 accessions of donated gifts to the Society including note-
worthy collections from Mrs. Dorothy Longnecker, a trustee, and from the
late W. Glenn Norris, Albert Force and Ralph Smith.
Highlights of the 1970 activities of the DeWitt Historical Society are
as follows:
I. William Heidt Jr., City of Ithaca historian, former curator of the
DeWitt Historical Society and a current trustee, received a citation from
the American Association for, State and Local History in recognition of
his efforts in the field of local history. Mrs. Constance Cook, Tompkins
County assemblyman, made the presentation at a reception given for Mr.
Heidt at the Museum. Mr. Heidt also received twin statuettes of colonial
figurines from radio station WTKO for his service in providing historical
material to the station. Subsequently Mr. Heidt received the ITHACA
JOURNAL'S Man -of -the -Year Award.
Many programs, lectures, and slides were given and during the past few
months Mrs. Elizabeth Mulholland has supervised a rearrangement of
the museum's display cases and installation of several exhibitions.
The DeWitt Historical Society has greatly benefited through several
grants from the New York State Council of the Arts. Two noteworthy
accomplishments of the past year undertaken on such grants have been
publication of Elizabeth Rogers' manuscript, THE ENDURING CLIN-
Proceedings of the Board of Representatives 461
TON HOUSE: AN ACCOUNT OF ITS LIFE AND TIMES; and Philip
R. Dankert's professional cataloging of the Society's library.
For 1971 the Council on the Arts has made a grant of $13,500 to the
DeWitt Historical Society for the one-year salary of a professional director
plus administrative expense. The Society's president, Walter Stainton,
is in communication regarding possible candidates for the position.
The unique publishing program carried on for the Society by Mr.
Heidt continues to gather interest and greatly increased requests from all
parts of New York State for publication of local history material.
The Genealogy Dept., now in charge of Mrs. Barbara Hassan, has a
steadily mounting work load. Also, a workshop in geneology was con-
ducted with genealogist from Cayuga, Chemung as well as Tompkins
attending and future workshops will be scheduled on request.
As a new feature, a group of DeWitt Jr. High School students made
three audio-visual recordings of the Society lectures. Research material
in the museum's collection is constantly in demand and used by public
schools, colleges, businesses, hospital, library, and many individuals.
County Historian, Lois O'Connor, draws on the files for her WHCU
radio program. There was also an interview with Amelia Bielaski who is
working on the now famous Smith — Telfer photographic collection. It
was hoped to obtain some guidelines in dealing with the valuable
photographic materials owned by the Society.
The Curator would like to express special recognition to several
volunteers who have assisted with the Operation and some special
problems at the museum. Mrs. Mulholland for undertaking rearrange-
ment of the museum's artifacts, Mrs. Ryan for work on keeping the
accessions current and for special research of records to. fill requests for
information; Mrs. Rebecca Harris for the task of sorting and filing
pictures and clippings; and Harry Beckley for assistance as locksmith.

SUMMARY OF
ANNUAL REPORT — 1970 TOMPKINS COUNTY HISTORIAN
submitted by
Lois O'Connor, Historian
(Detailed report on file in the office of
the Clerk of the Board of Representatives)
The past year has been one of orientation to the position of county
historian that was held for 25 years (1944-1969) by the county's first and
only preceding historian, the late W. Glenn Norris.
Considerable time was given to discussion with the trustees, curator
and volunteer assistants of the DeWitt Historical Society. The operation
of the museum, in particular, currently presents problems of exhibition
space; accommodation of the many school groups that come for lectures;
storage and work areas; but most seriously the need for adequate con-
servation and protective measures for the invaluable collections housed
in the Old Courthouse.
Perhaps the most concrete accomplishment of the year has been the
arrangement for the county historian to have a regular radio program
with Barbara Hall on Station .WHCU. The programs began Tuesday,
Nov. 17, and are broadcast on alternate weeks.
Frank Liguori, county planning director, requested on March 12 that
the county historian prepare documentation on the Old Courthouse and
Boardman House to be used as background information from Oren Bul-
lock, restoration architect, engaged to evaluate both buildings as to ad-
visability of restoration or rehabilitation. A 14 -page report plus copies
of several documents was sent to Mr. Liguori on April 24.
A letter was sent in 'August to Harris Dates, chairman of the Board of
Representatives, and to John 'Wareham, chairman of the Intergovern-
mental Relations Committee, recommending that Tompkins County
establish an Archives Department. With the business of the county
rapidly increasing both in bulk and importance there should be a center
for the adequate preservation of archival material and a system that
facilitates retrieval of information from inactive records.
The primary objective for 1971 should be activating a program for the
township historians of Tompkins County and devising a plan for super-
vision and assistance in their local activities.
It might be noted that county historians are already being involved in
statewide plans for the observance of BICENTENNIAL of the American
Revolution.

SUMMARY OF ANNUAL REPORT
FISH AND WILDLIFE MANAGEMENT — REGION 3
(detailed report on file with Clerk, Board of Representatives)
Fish and Wildlife Population Management
Over the past five years, wildlife experts have been trapping varying
hare in areas unaccessible to hunters and transferring them into suitable
areas; fishing biologists studied thirteen different bodies of water with
Region 3 and collected samples of fish from each to determine the inci-
dence of DDT in sport fish populations; to 'have a wild turkey popula-
tion scattered throughout a large geographical area has long been a
goal. This program has been successful; Coho salmon were introduced
into waters of New York recently. Biologists have surveyed streams where
additional Coho may be released in the future; during 1969, three bodies
of water were treated with rotenone and restocked. In the spring of
1968, two experimental areas were stocked with an exotic species of
pheasant; namely, the Korean pheasant. From this experiment it is hoped
to establish a huntable population of pheasants. Wildlife biologists spend
a considerable portion of their time working with deer; continuing
studies of age, sex composition, and growth rate of fish populations of
the .Finger Lakes yield valuable information.
Fish and Wildlife Habitat Manipulation
The improvement of certain waters within our region is as important
as their protection. Nineteen applications for stream improvement were
reviewed and approved. Also approved was five hundred plans for work
on upland terrain. During 1969, ten pot hole marshes were excavated.
These potholes are important to nesting and migrating birds. Also focal
points for hunting, bird watching and photography; State-owned wild-
life areas provide necessary ingredient (land) for untold hours of recrea-
tion. To improve access to these areas 11/2 miles of new roads were
constructed, four new vehicle parking areas constructed and miles of
existing roads graded and improved; during 1969, wildlife technicians
maintained 120 small wildlife marshes, 250 acres of grassland, etc.;
extensive bird clog field trials, archery tournaments and was utilized
by the Boy Scouts.
Fish and Wildlife Stocking Programs
2,200 Korean pheasants were stocked; approximately 900 game pheas-
ants were released; 2,400 muskellonge were released; 30,000 norloage
fish were released.
464
Activities
Tompkins County, New York
Portions of New York State Fish and Wildlife Management Act make
it possible for the Conservation Department to establish cooperative
arguments with private landowners with the management of some of
the natural resources of the state and to provide a reasonable amount of
controlled public access to private land.
In addition to keeping planning units and state policy makers abreast
of problems and solutions to problems associated with use of our natural
resources, division personnel were instrumental in the planning and de-
sign of four educational displays for public viewing.
Aquatic Habitat Protection
One of the greatest problems now confronted by the Division of Fish
and Wildlife is the protection of fish and wildlife habitat. Most of the
unit's effort is working with Federal, State, County, Town and Village
government units. A close larson is mandated with state and county
health department officials with respect to matters of water pollution
which involves this office.
The Division of Fish and Wildlife promoting the wisest action of our
fish and wildlife resources and planning ahead so that future generations
will inherit an environment that is an asset and not a liability.

SUMMARY OF
ANNUAL REPORT OF THE TOMPKINS COUNTY SHERIFF
submitted by
Robert Howard, County Sheriff
(Detailed report on file in the office of
the Clerk of the Board of Representatives)
This year (1970) marked the first year that the Sheriff's Department
had a full time officer assigned to do juvenile work. The position of
Juvenile Officer was created by the Board of Representatives late in 1969.
Deputy Edward Hall assumed the full-time assignment as Juvenile Offi-
cer on January 1, 1970.
The duties of the Juvenile Officer are varied. Sheriff's deputies super-
vised the Junior Deputy League throughout the ten county elementary
schools. Again this year, over 300 boys were enrolled in this program.
The program consists of monthly meetings in each school, in which
sixth grade boys are taught the fundamentals of police work of how and
why police officers are required to carry out their duties of enforcing
the laws of our state. Lectures on the laws most frequently violated by
juveniles are given and discussions and explanations of these laws are
stressed. We are finding that more often than not, our children are told
they must obey the law but they have never had the laws explained to
them. We feel that thru more knowledge of the laws, perhaps there may
be a more positive attitude towards them. Consequently, in the not too
distant future, Tompkins County might see a decline in the ever in-
creasing spiral of Juvenile delinquency.
The Junior Deputy program, also consists of tours thru our Courthouse
and Sheriff's Department, including a tour of the jail cellblock. This
phase of the program usually includes sixth grade girls as guests of the
Junior Deputies.
We are proud of our Junior Deputy program and feel that the results
of it, although unmeasurable, will help mold young lives into more posi-
tive and productive paths.
The Juvenile Officer investigates all complaints and crimes perpetrated
by Juveniles. Juvenile offenders are handled under the Family Court Act
of New York State. Thus, the process is completely different from the
one of adults. Based on rehabilitation more than punitive measures, it
gives the juvenile officer a more varied means of adjustment when a
crime is.committed. Many hours are spent not only in apprehension, but
in conferences with worried parents and the juvenile, himself before the
final disposition of a juvenile case is reached.
466 Tompkins County, New York
We had initiated a new system which we feel will prove to be a
strong weapon in combating Juvenile delinquency. In the past, if a juve-
nile committed a crime, which because of the nature or degree of serious-
ness, it was decided not to formally take the youth into Family Court. A
warning would be given to the youth and he would be told that any fur-
ther involvement with the law would mean full persecution. Because of
limited manpower this was not always carried out. Unless the individual
deputy which conducted the original investigation came in contact with
the youth was possible that a youth who showed a definite trend toward
juvenile delinquency and a later life of crime, might receive a second or
even third warning. It is not difficult to see that a youth could develop an
opinion that he could continue to break the law and nothing of any
great consequence would happen to him. The same situation was true
in many of the other police agencies in our county.
Under our new system which we refer to as our "Official Warning
File", any youth which commits an offense of which he could be
convicted, is referred to Family Court and will have his name and the
details of the case placed on file within our department. Thus, if the
youth becomes involved in any future trouble, and when the complaint
crosses the Juvenile Officer's desk, a check of the file will reveal a past
warning and appropriate action can then be taken. Likewise, any policy
agency, city, village or state can obtain this information from the Sheriff's
Department, upon request. We sincerely hope that by spotting delinquent
behavior earlier, before a youth becomes involved in more serious
trouble, the proper measures can be taken to assist the youth to a more
positive direction in life.
Eighty-four official warnings were given to youths by the Sheriff's De-
partment in 1970. Sixty-five youths were referred to Family Court or the
Probation Department. Four youths were referred to Welfare and an
additional seven were referred to other police agencies. A total of three
hundred -sixty juvenile cases were handled this year by the Sheriff's De-
partment:
Upon request of school authorities, Juvenile Officer Hall conducted
twelve narcotic lectures in grades five thru twelve. Fourteen safety lectures
were given to elementary students. Three high school groups were in-
structed on the subject of "The Law", dealing with what it is and the
reasons it is needed.
We at the Sheriff's Department are pleased that we are now in the
position of having a full time juvenile Officer. We know that the youths
of our county will greatly benefit as the results of this position, making
Tompkins County a better place to grow up in and for the adults, a
better place in which to live.

ANNUAL REPORT
Tompkins County Veterans' Service Agency
(Submitted by Richard F. Cummings, Director)
Tompkins County, according to the census, has a population of 70,000
residents, including approximately 9709 veterans of whom 500 are World
War I, 4600 are World War II, 1736 are Korean, and 2873 are post -
Korean and Viet Nam veterans who have been released and have re-
turned. All veterans, servicemen, and their families are eligible for service
by our Agency.
The total number of contacts (personal, letter, and telephone) during
the year amounted to 5735; 3212 were personal, 2141 were inbound
letters, and 382 were inbound telephone calls. The preponderance of
contacts was primarily with veterans and their families. There were few
contacts with servicemen.
A total of 77 meetings were attended by the Director during the year.
He also attended 51 events such as dinners, U.S.O. breakfasts, military
funerals, etc. At all meetings and events the Director either represented
Tompkins County Veterans' Service Agency or the veterans of Tompkins
County. A total of 54 outside contacts was made, primarily to veterans
in the Veterans Administration Hospitals in Syracuse and Bath, New
York; some veterans were counseled in their homes. The total number of
services rendered to the veterans and their families was 6794. These
dealt primarily with education, pension, burial benefits, and hospitaliza-
tion.
This year another study was conducted to attempt to show some of the
money coming back to veterans who are residents of the County from
the result of our filing claims for the veteran and his family. This is
based on the original award letter received by this office on an annual
basis for the year 1970: Burial awards, $19,978; Insurance awards,
$53,098; and Educational benefits (under Federal Public Laws 89-358 and
90-77) $364,392; Pension awards, $172,860; Compensation awards,
$181,188; and On -the -Job Training benefits, $15,564; making a combined
total of $807,080 brought into Tompkins County. These figures are on
only the cases in which this office had jurisdiction and appointment of
the Veterans Service Organization as claimant's representative.
During the year of 1970, the Veterans Administration Regional Office,
Buffalo, New York, released a letter to the Tompkins County Veterans'
Service Agency with the following facts concerning the Federal Govern-
ment fiscal year 7/1/69 - 7/1170: the 9709 -man veteran benefits in the
amount of $2',103,551.

ANNUAL REPORT
TOMPKINS COUNTY SURROGATE
(submitted by E. R. Carpenter, Chief Clerk)
Deposited with Tompkins County $17,101.50 received from January 1,
1970 to December 31, 1970 for Certificates of Appointment, Filing of
Petitions and recording, and certified copies of Records.
SUMMARY 1970
SEALER OF WEIGHTS AND MEASURES
Detailed report on file with
Clerk of Board of Representatives)
(submitted by Carl Roe, Sealer)
Probably the one great outstanding question in the public's mind now,
is the one concerning possible conversion of our present weights and
measures standards to the international metric system.
This has been proposed for many years, but our vast vested stock -pile
of goods, measuring and weighing devices, tools, machinery parts, etc.,
all now based on feet, inches, acres, etc., if changed would vex all phases
of industry for a long time.
Our county has 325 bulk milk tanks in use on its farms, and milk
producers face continued pressure to make bulk tanks the one single
means of milk handling at the source of supply.
Sanitation -wise and economy -wise this is desirable and inevitably this
method must prevail.
Regarding the eight complaints recorded, three concerned gas pump
delivery, two, fruit bought by measure, and three pre -packed meat. A
re -check of the gas pumps, found all three well within the acceptable
tolerance. The gauges in cars are not the most accurate possible, and I
believe Detroit will put any size tank in a car frame that will fit, and call
it o.k.
Proceedings of the Board of Representatives 477
The buying public still holds to the conception of 60 lbs. to the
bushel, due to their experience of buying potatoes, but apples for instance
will vary, from 40 - 44 lbs. per bushel, depending on variety, size, and
weather conditions for that year.
Consumers still question if pre -packed meat is priced by net weight
only, and you can be assured this is true! All weights and measures of-
ficials closely watch for this, scales for pre -packed items have long been
used in the trade and are continuously checked for accurate adjustment
ability.
`Warnings given were for clear and legible weight declarations on
packages, the proper level placement of scales, positioning of scales, for
clear view of the scale reading window on the customers side.
This past summer -I was requested to check a personal weighing scale
for T.O.P.S. club. The lady in charge there told me that T.O.P.S. meant
'Take off pounds sensibly'! I claim my interpretation is better, because
I once unluckily got between two fat women at a bargain sale and the
pressure was on! Anyway if we go to the metric system the T.O.P.S.
women will be happy, for they will weigh less than half as much (emo-
tionally) , for 1 kilo equals 2.205 lbs., so a 220 Ib. girl will weigh less than
100 kilos — what joy! But wrestlers by their published weights would
appear to be a team of midgets! There will be a lot of laughs for a while
in the new system.
478 Tompkins County, New York
ANNUAL REPORT
SOIL AND WATER CONSERVATION DISTRICT
(detailed report on file with Clerk of Board of Representatives)
Formed in 1944 as a result of growing concern over the deterioration of
good farm land in Tompkins County, the Tompkins Soil and Water Con-
servation District for 27 years has carried on an active educational;
planning, and application program on soil and water conservation and
principles of sound land use management. A tour through any part of the
county shows the results. For example, roughly 350 ponds have been con-
structed through the District program.
For many years, the bulk of the District's efforts were concentrated
toward working with the farmers of the county; to assist them to institute
management programs based on sound soil and water conservation
measures. In recent years, soil and water management problems on urban
and suburban constructionsites, roadbank and streambank erosion and
various assorted land use management problems have attracted the
attention and efforts of the District. In Tompkins County, as elsewhere,
concern over air, water and land pollution is increasing. In an effort to
increase its services toward creating and helping to maintain a high
quality natural environment for Tompkins County residents, the District
is in the process of seeking membership in the South Central New York
Resource Conservation and Development Project. If membership is ob-
tained, the District will be in a better position to furnish assistance on
community wide projects.
1970 has been a productive and busy year for the Tompkins District
and 1971 promises to pose many challenges. But it is facing and overcom-
ing challenges that an agency, as well as an individual, grows and the
Tompkins District welcomes the challenges of the 70's, in the hopes that
in a small way, through their efforts our children will live in a county
that they can take pride in — where there will be green parklands and
woodlands, prosperous and well managed farmlands, varied and numerous
wildlife and clear sparkling lakes and streams. We must all plan and work
today, if we want a better life tomorrow.
