Chan man Dates declared a recess at 7 35 p m to meet with approxi-
mately 250 employees of Tompkins County in the Court Room concern-
ing salary negotiation
Chairman Dates welcomed the employees and introduced the clerk of
the board, its sixteen members, County Attorney Robert Williamson,
Commissioner of Budget and Administration John Murphy, and Dr
David Safadi
rv,
Dr Safadi introduced members of the Tompkins County Employees
Committee, Lillian Mann, Linda Washington, Emery Guest, Ed Tarbox,
Joe Roedel, John Shipherd, and also Mr Nels Carlson from the State
CSEA He said their presence was the result of the alleged failure of
negotiations on the part of elected representatives and it signifies that the
Board of Representatives refused to recognize their own factfinder's
conclusion that employees were ready to accept, and that the County
Negotiating Committee allegedly refused to move from their original
January 25, 1971 21
offer He felt the County's offer intended to do away with the annual
increment Mr John Shipherd said public assistance rates increase ten
per cent per year but employees are asking for a living wage and are
willing to earn a decent living He asked that terms of the contract be
clear and reasonable so employees can understand it and live with it
Mr Roedel presented comparison figures from both negotiating state-
ments concerning total payrolls and increments Dr Safadi introduced
Mr Nels Carlson, labor advisor from CSEA, who filed two unfair prac-
tice charges with the attorney The first charge was interfering with an
employees organization, and the second charge bargaining in bad taste
They are on file with PERB in Albany
Chairman Dates introduced John Murphy, chaiiman of the county
negotiating committee Mr Murphy said the Taylor Law does not re-
quire the factfinder's report be binding on either part He didn't feel the
county negotiating team totally responsible for declaring impasse Mr
Murphy spoke of problems surrounding the increment system of the
old contract and the employees assumption of it being an automatic
system, and also that the mini - PERB is chosen by the board chair-
man and then the factfinder is picked by mini - PERB Dr Safadi said
the purpose of labor negotiations was to assure a certain amount of money
for employees to live with and their main purpose of being there was
for the board to recognize that the factfinder gave the minimat necessary
to make an agreement with the County to live for the next year or two
Mr Golder did not feel the chaige of failure to negotiate on behalf
of the county was true He also said the representatives were elected by
the rule of the taxpayers of the county to use their own best independent
judgment
Chairman Dates thanked the employees for coming and said there
had to be an agreement
Chairman Dates called the meeting back to order at 8 15 p m
Mi Dates publicly thanked John C Clynes for the work he has done
in mini - PERB to get employees and the county toegther for salary
settlement
Under privilege of the floor, Mr Lee spoke concerning snowmobile
pioblems and suggested to the Public Safety and Correction that we
invite the State Police, Tompkins County Sheriff, and Attorney Armand
Adams, who was instrumental in drafting this law, to see if we have an
enforceable activity here It seems to be an increasing problem Mr
Leary said Sheriff Robert Howard was at a conference in Albany and
one of the main items to be discussed was snowmobile legislation
Mr Holden, Planning and Public Works, reported the committee met
22 January 25, 1971
at the airport with Glenn Turner ie certification of the Tompkins
County Airport There is a chance of getting a towel and additional
lighting will be needed Hangars are being rented for $45 a month The
committee gave approval to rent annually for $480 They also met at
the Highway Depai tment for a review of roads for 1970 and 1971
Mi Lee, Budget and Administration, presented a report on the present
status of the tax exemption for the elderly in the various municipalities
and school districts in the $3,000 to $5,000 tax exemption question
Pioblems in handling the varied limit levels are not only in the assess-
ment department but also with the elderly making application Mr
Graves felt it disci iminatory to give the tax exemption to property own-
ers only and not an across-the-board exemption to elderly who rent or
perhaps own mobile homes
Mr Leary, Public Safety and Correction, announced that the city
scaler of weights and measures would be retiring in June and the County
would investigate the possibilities of this being taken over by the County
The committee is meeting concerning their recommendation for dog
warden and expect to have a resolution at the next meeting

tives on each desk and said they would have a resolution at the next

in some instances might not be in the interest of good management

Mansueto, Inc , the cost consultant firm for Tompkins -Cortland Com-
munity College Mr Marcham said he would be advising the board on an

Berger-Mansueto, Inc , estimates the Phase I project of $8,677,472 which
is some $11,000 over what the board approved for construction The com-
mittee still feels we may be able to meet the budget with cuts Mr Golder
questioned the advisability of the open courts and wanted comparison fig-
ures on the increased lighting, if any, required by eliminating the light
wells Mr Stutz said additional foundation costs might be necessary if
the irregular outside first floor is changed Mr Hoffman of Levatich,
Miller, Hoffman said removing the light wells might force redesign of
the mass of the structure Mr Graves questioned whether the cost -
consultant firm had saved the county any money as anticipated and if
they had gone over the architect's plans Mr Mai tin of McKee-Berger-
Mansueto, Inc , said savings could come through eliminating some fur-
nishings and equipment of by acting now as much as one half could be
saved on some items Ronald Space felt the cost -consultant firm should
have more information concerning equipment purchased and in use and
certain steps of Phase II Mr Martin said situating nearer the road or
building a box style building would save money but for the building as
planned the estimates are as close as possible Mr Stutz commended,
Caudill, Rowlett & Scott for their cost analysis Mr Marcham read the
iesolution again and a roll call vote on the resolution resulted as follows.

Mr Lee spoke of the possibility of establishing an Industrial Develop-
ment Agency and the necessity of prefiling of an amendment to this law
by February 15 We hope to have a resolution by the next meeting The
pun pose of an Industrial Development Agency would be to promote, de-
velop, encourage, assist in acquiring, constructing, re -constructing, im-
pi owing, maintaining, equipping, furnishing industrial manufacturng,
warehousing, commercial and research facilities, and thei eby advance
the job opportunities, general prosperity, and economic welfare of the
people Any town, city, or village may also establish such an agency The
primary tool is it has the provisional authority to issue revenue bonds
Once bonds are issued, die facilities are leased to the company Bond
issues do not require the full faith and credit of sponsoring municipali-
ties Property taxes on agency projects on tax free bonds are tax exempt
There is a provision where agencies are requiring payments in lieu of
34 February 8, 1971
taxes to the municipalities Our neighboring counties have bills pending
now There are twenty-three agencies in existence We need this tool for
our present firms Chairman Dates recommended Budget and Administra-
tion and Planning and Public Works Committees study the project.

and Proposed Tax Increases
Mr Graves offered the following resolution and moved its adoption
WHEREAS, Hon Nelson A Rockefeller, Governor, has sent to the Legis-
lature a "stopgap crisis" budget of $8 45 billion, and
WHEREAS, to finance said budget the Governor has proposed the greatest
increases of taxes ever sought by a New York Governor, and
WHEREAS, said proposed increases include a one -cent increase in the,sales
tax, and ten percent "surcharge" on personal income taxes, and
WHEREAS, in addition thereto, it is proposed that business taxes be in-
creased approximately 30%, motor vehicle registration fees be increased ap-
proximately 50%, the gasoline tax be increased by one cent, the cigarette tax
be increased three cents per package, that liquor tax be increased fifty cents
a gallon and that various professional fees be increased, including those of
barbers, beauticians and undertakers, and
WHEREAS, the alleged revenue gap confronting the state is $1,4-14,000,000
and the aforesaid proposed tax increases will be insufficient to raise said
monies, and
WHEREAS, in addition to said proposed tax increases, the Governor has
budgeted an additional $300 million in bond borrowing to be approved by the
voters at the November election, and
WHEREAS, the Governor indicates said budget increase was due to the
obligatory spending increases of $1,534-,000,000 mostly for state -aid programs
and wage and fringe benefit increases for state employees, now therefore
be it
RESOLVED, That this Board opposes said budget increases and proposed
tax increases on the grounds that
1 Such an increase will force more and more corporations to leave the
state thereby increasing the unemployment situation in New York
2 That it is irresponsible to draft a budget based on the hope that the
Federal Government will enact some meaningful revenue sharing programs
3 That the Legislators before adopting programs requiring outlays of
monies should first ascertain if in fact funding and increase in tax revenues
from normal economic growth of the state is available
4 That the budget as proposed will continue the inflationary spiral and
at the same time will result in business slump through the loss of companies
doing business in the state
5 That said proposed increases in taxes hurts the middle and lower in-
come groups more seriously than the wealthy
RESOLVED, further, That this Board respectfully requests the Governor
and the Legislature to curtail the spending spree at every level of State Gov-
ernment and to adopt a state budget that is realistic with the current eco-
nomic conditions of the state and its citizens
RESOLVED, further, That the Cleik of the Board forward certified copies

Fi om Frank Lzguorz stating the Crime Control Committee met and
they are requesting that the Board of Representatives take action to im-
prove the salary for the vacant position of supervising psychiatrist at the
Mental Health Clinic Also that the Board give consideration to the
establishment of a full-time District Attorney
At this time Matthew McHugh, District Attorney, under privilege of
the floor, spoke to the Board proposing a full-time District Attorney He
said it is essential that a full-time post be created in order to get men of
, the best caliber He feels the salary should be $25,000 He emphasized that
although his position is part-time, he works about forty hours per week
He also has other responsibilities including meeting with community
groups and working with such problems as drug abuse In County Court
alone, in 1970, there were 98 indictments returned The lob entails much
more than the trial of criminal cases in court Other responsibilities in-
clude initiating investigations in the County, representing the people at
' all pretrial motions and hearings, and arguing appeals in higher courts
The changes in the criminal law tend to provide criminal defendants with
more procedural grounds with which to contest indictments, and make
the full-time post more necessary He also said the Tompkins County
Bar Association and the County Crime Control Planning Board has en-
dorsed the concept ,
Also under privilege of the floor, Erie J Miller spoke on behalf of the
Town of Danby and West Danby Grange He said near the Sanitary
Landfill Site on the south edge of Danby, there has been a great amount

ferred this matter to the Planning and Public Works Committee
Under privilege of the floor, Mr Holden spoke regarding a meeting
with a representative of the State Park Commission, Mr Mobbs, County
Highway Department, Doris Levy, Civil Defense Department They
would like a bridge replaced by the County in Enfield that was washed
out last summer, then State Park Commission would take charge of the
bridge and road It is a county bridge and money would have to be
appropriated for it However, it would be 100 percent reimbursable.
There will be another meeting on this.

was mentioned that in the next five years, hospital rates will double A
meeting will be held later and perhaps form an ad hoc committee to
further study this matter Also the committee discussed and decided 3 to
1 to create three new positions of welfare unit assistants in the Social

remember that the council served only in an advisory capacity with the

should have a balanced membership representing various viewpoints

Seconded by Mr Graves
Mr Lee explained that under the proposal, four county areas would be
studied — hospital, Budget and Administration, Social Services and
Assessment He said the study is needed to provide a management control
point to avoid going over the deep end in costs He said there are
four principle steps that should be followed 1) proposal stage (try to
outline & design our problems) , 2) solution step, 3) implementation, 4)
do what implemented
June 14, 1971 105
John Murphy briefly explained the reasons for recommending joint
detail design and cost study is the desire by the county to have an outside
independent agency handle our total electronic data processing He said
by having one group responsible, problems would be eliminated He said
theie is no commitment beyond the study He said it is important to get a
dollar volume estimate for E D P expenditures over the next five years,
which would be sufficiently large to justify this type of study He said it
provides us with fun ther checkpoints prior to entering long term commit-
ments He said the piogram would give better management control
William Finlay Wiight, Wright Instruments, Inc. Vestal, consultant
firm, stated that a more meaningful preliminary study of computurizing
the county's facilities could be made at lower cost than now contemplated
by employing mote expertise in certain areas, broadening its base and
employing a more impai tial study committee with well defined objec-
tives A study committee with expertise in all areas should be able to
complete such a study at an estimated cost of $10,000 He asked this
suggestion be given careful consideration
Richard Compton, a former supervisor, now at Cornell University,
said the Touchette Corp was overpriced and such a study should cost
in the range of $5,000 - $10,000

5 04 Descrzptzon of Zones
The following is a description of the Zone Financing Plan prepared
for the development contemplated in Stages I, II and III of the overall
plan for the Tompkins County Sanitary District No 1
This Financing Plan is based on a division of the Sanitary District
into four Zones
The purpose of this Zonal Division is to provide for a method of
charges that reflects the benefits received from the purchase and instal-
lation of the necessary sewer facilities that serve the diverse areas
The geographic areas covered by the four Zones of the District aie
these
Zone 1—includes the entire Tompkins County Sanitary District No 1
Zone 2—takes in all that part of Lansing in the District as well as that
portion of the Town of Dryden in the District which is adjacent and
east of Lansing
Zone 3—encompasses all of the Village of Cayuga Heights all of the
Town of Ithaca included in the District except the Willow Point Area
and that portion of the Town of Dryden east of and adjacent to that
part of the Town of Ithaca which is in the District
Zone 4—is included in order to fairly apportion those costs that will
be incurred as a result of planned Stage III construction No use will be
made of Zone 4 until such time as Stage III is activated
This Zone contains all of the Town of Ithaca included in the District
except the Willow Point Area and also that portion of the Town of
Dryden east of and adjacent to that part of the Town of Ithaca which
is part of the Sanitary District
November 22, 1971 227
The easterly extension of the town line boundary separating Ithaca
and Lansing is the boundary separating those portions of the Town of
Dryden in Zone 2 from those in Zones 3 and 4
A map showing the diversion of the Sanitary District into Zones 1, 2,
3, and 4 is shown in Figure 4 of this report
5 05 Types of Annual Costs
In the entire Sanitary District, the provision of Sanitary Sewer Services
will generate two types of annual costs to be shared by the participating
municipalities These costs are (1) debt service, and (2) operation and
maintenance Annual debt service includes both debt repayment and
interest charges The basis for total first year charges and individual
zone charges for the District appear in Table 5-3
After shares of debt service and operation and maintenance are ap-
portioned annually between municipalities, then it will be up to each
municipality to raise the necessary funds by their own formula which
may be different than that assumed herein
5 06 Zone 1—Cost Dzstrzbutzon
In Zone 1 each municipality will contribute a share of the annual
debt service based on the following formula The annual debt service of
Zone 1 is to be based on units connected to the sewer system and the
share of each mumcipahty will be based on the proportion of its con-
nected units to the total of all connected units in Zone 1
The number of units connected to the sewer system will be determined
as of October first of each year In order to be assigned a unit charge, a
property owner's building must be connected to a sewer
The basis for unit charges by classes of property is given in Appendix
I of this Report The estimated number of connected units anticipated
during the first year of District operation is shown in Appendix J
The annual costs of operation and maintenance are shared equally by
all Zone 1 units This cost per unit is determined by dividing the annual
cost of operation and maintenance by the total units in the District
Annual Operation and Maintenance Costs for the first year of District
operation are estimated in Appendix F
The total Zone 1 annual unit charge is composed of the per unit cost
of operation and maintenance, plus the per unit charge for debt service,
as explained in this Section

5 07 Zone 2 -Cost Dzstrzbutzon
In Zone 2 the unit cost is based on the capital program proposed
within the Town of Lansing (Zone 2) . The capital program in Lansing
calls for the construction of a portion of the Railroad Interceptor the
costs for which are shown in Table 5-3.
The Zone 2 first-year unit charge is equal to the annual debt service
for the Railroad Interceptor divided by the total units in the Zone
To this amount must be added the Zone 1 unit charges to get the total
annual cost per unit in Zone 2.
November 22, 1971 229
5 08 Zone 3—Cost Dzstrzbutzon
In Zone 3, the unit cost is based on the capital program proposed
for this Zone involving the purchase of the Ithaca Trunk Sewer. The
purchase price of this sewer is shown in Table 5-3.
The Zone 3 first-year unit charge is equal to the annual debt service
resulting from the Ithaca Trunk purchase divided by the total units in
the Zone To this amount must be added the Zone 1 unit charges to get
the total annual cost per unit in Zone 3.
5 09 Unzt Charges
Appendix K shows the computation of first-year unit charges by Zones
and municipalities The estimated total per unit first-year charges for
municipalities by Zones is shown in Table 5-4.

Town of Lansing 1+2 62 24
Second and third Stage Costs were not developed in full because it is
difficult to estimate the escalation of such costs as well as to predict just
when such construction will take place. To make such costs completely
meaningful, it would be necessary to project further the growth in the
number of units Therefore, these costs are not shown.
The second and third stage facilities as proposed are based upon the
demand for additional services in this Distnct. If such demand is not
developed, then the staging would be delayed thus assuring that the per-
centage growth in units will approximate the percentage growth of the
annual costs.
Reference to Appendix G shows bonding schedules for all three stages
though it should be kept in mind that the initiation of Stages II and III
should be kept flexible
230 November 22, 1971
5 10 Connection Charge
Connection charges will be applicable to all potential users after the
Sanitary District is formed These will be charged according to the
schedule shown in Table 5-5, and are subject to revisions depending on
the final determination of the basic unit charge
Revenues from the connection charge are accruable to the account of
either Zone 2 or 3, depending where the new connection takes place and
will be totaled and deducted from the Zone's annual cost share as of
each October 1
Connection charge revenues are not included in the Financing Plan
because the number and location are difficult to estimate and, if omitted,
only results in a conservative estimate of the unit charge

Your Committee on Budget and Administration reports that they have
inquired into and ascertained as near as may be the percentage of full

valuation of taxable real property in each city and town for the purpose
of apportioning county taxes has been determined by dividing the
assessed valuation thereof by the county equalization rate established
for such city and town
That your committee has, in accord with such percentage compiled,
and that the foregoing table shows the aggregate valuations of each tax
district as determined from the actual values of property fixed according
to the above ratios or percentages and the average rate of assessment of
real property in the county which your committee has determined ac-
cording to the rules laid down by statute to be $7 7473649 and that the
table shows by such valuations the several and aggregate valuations upon
which the taxes for the county, including that state taxes should be ap-
portioned between the several tax districts of the county
All of which is respectfully submitted.

SUMMARY OF
ANNUAL REPORT -1971 TOMPKINS COUNTY HISTORIAN
submitted by
Lois O'Connor, Historian
A series of radio programs with Barbara Hall, WHCU, were completed,
the general title, CROSSROADS COMMENT FROM THE COUNTY
HISTORIAN
For the June 1971 BULLETIN, the historian wrote an article on the
Tompkins County Liberty pole
New York History, quarterly publication of the New York State His-
torical Association, in the issue of April 1971 carried a 25 -page article, A
BIBLIOGRAPHY OF NEWSPAPERS IN FOURTEEN NEW YORK
STATE COUNTIES by Sylvia G Faibisoff and Lois Bryson O'Connor
The DeWitt Historical Society provided considerable material for the
bibliography
The County Historian attended the spring meeting of the County
Historians Association of New York State They were advised that the
Office of State History wanted information as to how each county was
formed—how and when the townships were set up, and how present
county boundaries were arrived
In the County Historian's files is a definitive document of Tompkins
County's evolution It has been Xeroxed and is being mailed to the State
Historian
Most of the towns do have a historian, although there apparently is
little activity or interest in carrying out any duties
It has been planned to devise an inventory sheet for each town his-
torian to complete This would give the County Historian some idea of
what does exist by way of township historian records

SUMMARY OF
ANNUAL REPORT -1971 TOMPKIINS COUNTY HISTORIAN
submitted by
William Heidt, Jr
, Historian
This report will cover the last six months of 1971, as my appointment
began on July 1, following the resignationi of Mrs Lois O'Connor
The DeWitt Historical Society reclaimed the room it had permitted
the historian to use, but no new location has been found Office work
has been conducted elsewhere
Two major projects are under study Reorganization of the vault in
the County Clerk's office in accordance with State-wide standards and
feasibility of printing the supervisor's proceedings for 1817-1854 which
exist in manuscript form and are disintegrating
This office is attempting to reorganize the town history program, but
meanwhile continues the Historical Society's publishing of local history
pamphlets

SOIL AND WATER CONSERVATION DISTRICT
submitted
by
Thomas Todd, Chairman
The Tompkins County Soil and Water Conservation District for 28
years has carried on an active educational, planning and application
program on soil and water conservation and principles of sound land
use management
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 meas-
ures In recent years, soil and water management problems on urban
and suburban construction sites, roadbank and streambank erosion and
Proceedings of the Board of Representatives 435
various assorted land use management problems have attracted the at-
tention and efforts of the District
The District is in the process of seeking membership in the South
Central New York Resource Conservation and Development Project If
accepted, the District will be in a better position to furnish assistance
on community wide projects
1971 has been a productive and busy year for the District and 1972
promises to pose many challenges

436 Tompkins County, New York
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 Federal Government as 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 1971 Burial awards, $16,050, In-
surance awards, $83,569, and Educational benefits (under Federal Public
Laws 89-358 and 90-77) , $536,967, Pension awards, $303,048, Compen-
sation awards, $128,844, and On -the -Job Training benefits, $29,904,

SUMMARY OF
ANNUAL REPORT OF AIRPORT
a
submitted by
Glenn A Turner, A A E , Manager
(Detailed Report on file in the Office of the
Clerk of the Board of Representatives)
Hereby is submitted, the Annual Repoi t for the year 1971 In all
respects it was a fair year The Mohawk pilot's strike, which did effect
all phases of operation at the airport, resulted in many thousands of
dollars lost forever to all airport business as well as to outside businesses
However, even with this handicap, the facility generated a gross dollar
flow of $3,014,159
By taking the equipment purchases and capital improvements out of
the operational expense category there showed a loss of $9,792 54 It is
felt, that had there been no strike, the concessions would have erased this
deficit
For a County of our size, the airport is its major traveling hub where
arrivals and departures to all points of the world aie possible One thing
which shows the "air -minded" nature of our people is the fact that with-
in the county boundaries he seven other airfields and one seaplane base
The coming of the Instrument Landing System and the Control Tower
in 1973 and 1974 will be most beneficial because (1) of the added safety
factor in the airport's operations, (2) a more reliable facility will attract
outside business, (3) of anticipated increase in the activity to the Re-
search Park, (4) of the increase of revenue capabilities for the airpoi t,
and (5) increase of the dollar flow to our Community, created by new
jobs, large and small, but ever so important I am sure the Federal Gov-
ernment has many additional reasons which warrant their spending of
such money for improvements at the Tompkins County Airport

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
I submit with pride the annual activity report of the Tompkins
County Sheriff's Department for the year of 1971
Again as in every proceeding year for the past several years, the de-
mands for services from this department has increased sharply in almost
every category Although short of manpower, the job at hand seems to get
accomplished because of the dedication, diligence and just plain hard
work of my entire staff
1971 marked another busy year for the Juvenile Division of the
Sheriff's Department Constantly striving to aid the youth of Tompkins
County, we have found the load placed upon the Department increasing
heavily throughout the year
Our Junior Deputy League found over 300 boys participating through-
out ten elementary schools in our County Supervised by Juvenile Officer
Edwaid Hall, the Junior Deputy League requires a monthly meeting at
each of the ten schools Through the continuing excellent cooperation
of school authorities, we are allowed an average of an hour each meet-
ing with these six grade boys
This year, Juvenile Officer Hall was assisted by Detective Marshall
Lane, Deputies Arthur Dawson, Philip Swaney and Emery Guest Each of
these men appealed at Junior Deputy meetings giving demonstrations
and talks relating to their specific duties within the Sheriff's Department
This participation by other men of the Department has been very well
accepted by the Junior Deputies and helps to make the boys feel that
all law enforcement officers are interested m them
With more of our residents of the County becoming aware that the
Sheriff's Department now has a Juvenile Officer, we are receiving many
requests for speaking engagements related to juvenile programs and
youth related activities These included talks based on juvenile de-
linquency, narcotics, juvenile investigation, etc They were presented to
P T A groups, civic clubs, church groups and firemen
Upon the request of school authorities, Juvenile Officer Hall conducted
twenty-one classes in the schools of our County based on narcotics, the
Penal Law and the role of the police officer
440 Tompkins County, New York
Juvenile investigation continues to take up the largest portion of the
Juvenile Officer's time As a result of this investigation, fifty-one youths
were petitioned into Family Court based on felony or misdemeanor
charges An additional eighty-six youths had misdemeanor or violation
complaints handled within the Juvenile Officer's office These were
settled by restitution being made by the youths accompanied by an
official warning, or in the minor incidents just the official warning and
a meeting of the youth's parents
There were 201 juvenile runaways reported to this Department in
1971 The total number of Juvenile Cases reported in Tompkins County
were 341
A total of $11,594 88 was spent for navigation enforcement and safety
by the county this year Of this, $5,797 44 will be reimbursed through
State Aid
During the 474 hours of patrol during 1971, we had 25 complaints,
770 vessels were checked, 40 warnings and 13 summons of infractions of
the Navigation Law were issued, accidents investigated -1, rescues -1,
hazards -13; assistance to boaters in trouble -34, regattas patrolled -6,
number of vessels checked -30
The receipts for 1971 were $139,502 17, disbursements, $139,502 17,
miscellaneous activities—radio log transmissions -18,611, civil detense
calls -1,094, visitors to prisoners -1,626, day book entices -198, stolen

SUMMARY OF
ANNUAL REPORT -1971 SEALER OF WEIGHTS AND MEASURES
submitted by
Carl Roe
In the past year there has been increased activity in all areas affecting
a sealers work New bulk milk tanks (36) indicating the continuing pres-
sure by receiving plants to a single type operation (bulk only as versus -
canned)
Several existing super markets are enlarging, four new ones added, and
a new mall to be opened with several markets in the very near future
Consumer, protection activity concerning deceptive packaging and
advertising, unit pricing, puzzling cents -off deals and so forth, all tend
to further confuse the buying public
I feel schools should take a special interest in this field, for a very
big share of the pupil's entire life -time earnings will be spent in these
stores
SUMMARY OF
1971 CIVIL DEFENSE ANNUAL REPORT
submitted by
Doris Levy, Director
The Tompkins County Civil Defense office was still deeply involved
in the aftermath of the July 1970 flood when the community was hit with
a snow emergency in March Volunteers worked with the director around
the clock for 54 hours to help county residents and coordinate relief
activities
The CD staff worked closely with doctors and with the hospital
Except for the rescue truck, all emergency vehicles used were owned by
volunteers
The Center was still in operation when the first call came in about
a possible drowning at Robert H Treman State Park The rescue truck
442 Tompkins County, New York
responded, and CD volunteers helped park personnel in the initial search
of the gorge trail and downstream areas A further search was organized
for the following day The Sheriff called in scuba divers, and CD vol-
unteers and equipment were used to help police and park personnel
A hot lunch was prepared at home by one of the CD deputies and
served from the CD utility van by staff members Coffee was available
throughout the day, and the van's dressing room area was used Workers
also spent time in the van to get warm following trips in the gorge
Many weeks were spent gathering information and preparing sum-
maries of documentation of disaster expenditures in connection with
the presidentially declared major natural disaster in July 1970 The di-
rector worked closely with the County Highway Department, the towns
of Newfield and Enfield, and the Finger Lakes State Parks Commission
on reimbursement requests for road and stream work As authorized
representative for the county, she also worked with state and federal
auditors during their examinations of disaster accounts Private property
claims, the value of some additional stream clearance, and agricultural
claims brought the total of all forms of disaster assistance within Tomp-
kins County to over $123,000
In October, the third annual joint Civil Defense—County Hospital
exercise (OPTOCO-71) was held Elaborately made-up "casualties"
were examined and treated at the simulated disaster scene by medical
personnel and ambulance crews They were then transported to the
hospital There doctors, nurses and other personnel processed them as
though they were real cases
The full CD emergency staff, including volunteers and government
officials, participated in a day -long state exercise at the Newfield
Emergency Operating Center In the Fall, the director spent several clays
developing material for Federal's CDEX-71
Two special courses were conducted at CD headquarters for local
police These were presented by a training team from Seneca Ordnance
Depot, and special permission was obtained to invite paid file officers
The director continued to serve on the Hospital Emergency Room and
Disaster Committee, and attended quarterly meetings of the County De-
fense Board She was reelected to her ninth term as secretary -treasurer
of the Civil Defense Directors Association of New York State
Exchange of federal radiological instruments stockpiled throughout
the county was continued Results of a shelter updating survey con-
ducted by Army engineers late in 1970 were integrated into local records
The number of spaces previously located in the county was nearly
doubled by the survey Basic material was developed for future use in
Proceedings of the Board of Representatives 443
preparing and distributing a community shelter plan as required by
the federal government This will involve 109,000 spa,ces for a potential
peak population need Two quality checks of shelter supplies in a num-
ber of buildings were conducted by military personnel to determine
how well they had withstood long storage.
Arrangements were made to secure and store two 200 -bed hospitals
and 12 supplemental units at Tompkins County Hospital These are
expected to be made available when the state's emergency medical stock-
pile program is discontinued With proper clearance, items can be used
during natural disasters and local emergencies as well as during a
national emergency
Auxiliary police donated over 700 hours to local police agencies dur-
ing 1971 in connection with such duty and activities as football game
traffic control, power failures, the fireworks display, parking and traffic
at the County Fair, searches for lost persons, parades and riding patrol
with Sheriff's deputies The rescue unit responded to many calls during
the year, some of them involving use of the porto-power unit The volun-
teer group in all cases had the vehicle on the way to disaster scenes
within ten minutes or less, accompanied by or met at the scene by
trained personnel
Conversion of the CD utility van was completed in 1971, and the
vehicle was used for such events as the county fair, firemen's convention,
and rescue operations
In addition to storms, local emergencies, and activities already men-
tioned, CD personnel were involved in such events as the annual youth
road rally and the Flag Day parade
The director lectured at Cornell and Ithaca College, before two basic
police schools, and at Willard State Hospital She worked with the air-
port, hospital, Post Office, schools, Coast Guard Auxihary, and others
to develop emergency and disaster plans Inventories, resource data,
alerting lists, SOP's, continuity of government, and numerous other
records continued to be updated during the year
In April, the State Legislature amended the New York State Defense
Emergency Act Changes in Civil Defense structure at state level are
covered in Chapter 73 of the Laws of 1971, as follows
A Made the Defense Emergency Act a permanent law
B Made no changes in local responsibilities.
C Continued the State Civil Defense Council and State Civil Defense
Commission, with operating functions transferred to various state
agencies and departments
444 Tompkins County, New York
D Designated the Commissioner of Transportation as the chief ex-
ecutive officer of the State Civil Defense Commission The De-
partment of Transportation was also designated by the Governor
as the state's natural disaster coordination agency The Commis-
sioner of Transportation has established a staff in his department
to handle natural disaster assistance, matching funds, excess and
surplus property, planning and exercises, resources, certain aspects
of the shelter program, and assistance to local jurisdictions The
Commissioner will coordinate all CD activities at state level
E Delegated the responsibility for providing statewide warning and
communications systems to the Division of State Police
F Gave responsibility for fallout protection to the Office of General
Services The Community Shelter Planning program will be handled
from that office
G Made the Division of Military and Naval Affairs responsible for
radiological protection, including Civil Air Patrol activities
H Responsibility for medical stockpiles went to the Department of
Health (actually no change since Health has administered this
program over the years)
I Terminated state aid for construction of school shelters and
emergency operating centers
Effective the end of the year, a change was made in the Tompkins
County Charter The position of Civil Defense Director was abolished
Duties of that position, as well as those of the County Fire Coordinator,
were combined
In this final annual report, the former director extends her deep ap-
preciation to local government officials, coordinating agencies, and the
many loyal volunteers for their assistance over the period of eleven
years she served as director Their cooperation made the local program
one that was highly respected at state and federal levels, that provided
essential services, disaster coordination, and emergency assistance to
county residents, and that assured emergency preparedness within the
county should a national emergency or build-up of international tension
occur
It is with deep regret that the former director must leave a program
in which she has been involved for eighteen years as a volunteer and a
county employee

ANNUAL REPORT-1971—
TOMPKINS COUNTY PLANNING DEPARTMENT
submitted by
Frank R Liguori, Planning Commissioner
Comp ehensive Planning Program
Activities in the development of an areawide comprehensive plan con-
tinued with financial assistance from the U S Department of Housing
and Urban Development and the State Office of Planning Services in
the amount of $26,400 for the fiscal year
The inventory phase of the comprehensive plan is essentially com-
pleted and activities are underway in the identification and analysis of
trends, problems, obstacles Functional area studies are underway in land
use, housing, community facilities, transportation and communications,
environmental conservation, human resources, and economic develop-
ment The first phase reports on these activities will be published by
the middle of 1972.
County Planning Board
The reorganized concept of a County Planning Board as a coalition
with representation by each municipality, and the major organizations
and agencies currently active in functional planning, was completed
near the end of the year The Planning Board is now meeting at regular
monthly intervals The Planning Board is functioning quite satisfac-
torily and I have high hopes of an effective and valuable relationship
Southe7n Tier East Regional Planning Board and Appalachia Develop-
ment Board
Tompkins County continues to be an active member of the Southern
Tier East Regional Board. Emphasis, at the present time, is on the
identification of appropriate projects for funding under the Appalachia
Development Commission Projects in Tompkins County which are
receiving favorable consideration for Appalachia grants include the
Tompkins -Cortland Community College, the airport planning and de-
velopment program, the Village of Cayuga Heights waste water treat-
ment plant, County Sewer District No 1, Challenge Industries, Child
Development Center in Groton, the Appalachia development highway
(Route 13) , and others.
446 Tompkins County, New York
The Regional Planning Board has a modest staff supported by Tomp-
kins, Cortland, Chenango, Delaware, Otsego, with Broome and Tioga
counties pending The main thrusts of the regional program are assist-
ance in Appalachia funding, economic development, and local planning
assistance for those counties without a local staff potential
County O f face Complex
Early in 1971, the Board of Representatives rejected all bids for the
i enovation of the Ithaca College buildings and asked the Planning
Department to submit a report of alternatives of a new building versus
renovation, and alternatives in relation to the use of the Old Court
House and the Boardman House Subsequently, the Board of Represen-
tatives selected an alternative dealing with a new building as opposed
to renovation of Ithaca College buildings, selected the "holding action"
alternative for the Old Court House, and deferred the question of the
ultimate disposition of the Boardman House for a later date Architect
Victor Bagnardi was employed to prepare a schematic plan for a pro-
posed new building and the Planning Department assisted by develop-
ing a program of office space needs and functional location of offices
Subsequently, Bagnardi's plan was rejected and the Planning and Public
Works Committee was authorized to provide new direction to the
architect Demolition of the Academic Building and the Theater was
authorized At the present time the county is taking another "hard" look
at all remaining alternatives and reaffirming the office space needs of the
various departments through committee evaluations The Planning De-
partment continues to play an active role in these activities
Local Planning Asszstance
The Department continued to provide local planning assistance to
several towns and villages and attended local planning, zoning, and
municipal board meetings upon request Assistance is also provided in the
review and drafting of zoning ordinances, sub -division ordinances, and
mobile home park ordinances, and in assuring appropriate design and
review of development projects Under the provisions of Section 239
of the General Municipal Law, the Department reviewed 25 local pro-
posed zoning changes which had areawide impact and appropriate recom-
mendations were made
Partzczpation in County Organzzatzons
The Commissioner of Planning serves as secretary to the County
Water Agency and County Sewer Agency He also serves on the follow-
ing Area Beautification Council, Health Planning Council, Reappor-
tionment Committee; County Environmental Management Council,
Crime Control Planning Committee
Proceedings of the Board of Representatives 447
Through the cooperation of Cornell University and Ithaca College, a
special Technical Advisory Group of specialists in various functional
areas was established This valuable service makes it possible for the
County Planning Department to draw on the expertise available at
Cornell and Ithaca College, on a modest consulting basis without cost
to the county As time goes on, the technical advisory group will be ex-
panded to include other specialists in the county as a whole
Planning Infoimatzon and Resource Center
The Department continued to expand its capability to serve as a
center for planning and community development information The
complete 1970 Census data has been obtained, summarized and organ-
ized A draft of a Statistical Data Handbook has been prepared A
second edition printing will be completed early in 1972 and will be
made available for use and distribution throughout the county
The Department maintains an "open-door" policy, encouraging
municipalities, organizations, and individuals to confer on any and all
problems relating to planning and community development Perhaps as
many as 100 students visited the offices in 1971 to discuss special proj-
ects and to seek out information Many of the documents and papers
produced by the students prove to be quite valuable in assisting us in
our activities
Transpoz tation Study
The county -wide transportation study progressed rather slowly dur-
ing the year because of cutbacks at the state level The study is in the
inventory and analysis phase of the existing arterial systems throughout
the county and analysis of the traffic surveys made late in 1970 It is
apparent that the study will be extended well into 1973
In the meantime, the Planning Department has continued to refile
the loop road concept serving the Ithaca urban area There continues
to be interest at the county, Town of Ithaca, and Cornell University
level to perhaps proceed to detailed engineering design for at least a
portion of the proposed loop road system
Planning on the Route 13 Appalachia corridor is continuing at the
state and local levels The opportunities for continued activities have
been enhanced through Appalachia funding At the present time, the
most critical area for early design and construction is the portion from
the foot of the Newfield hill through the City of Ithaca including a
new bridge crossing the flood channel in the vicinity of the Octopus,
to connect with Route 96 and 89 North

Miscellaneous Items
The Planning Department is assisting in the following projects The
development of a modest industrial park concept, the development of a
master plan and a project for installation of instrument landing facilities
and a control tower at the County Airport, The Tompkins County
Emergency Oil Spill Committee in development of a program to con-
fine oil spills in the waters of the county
Inadvertently, it was found that the description of the County Seal
in the Charter did not correspond with the official County Seal which
has been in use for many years The Planning Department volunteered
to develop a seal which conforms with the Charter provisions and which
also could serve as a seal on letterheads and perhaps county vehicles
The assignment seemed simple and the Planning Department proceeded
to prepare a couple alternate designs for consideration However, it was
soon apparent that we had completely underestimated the task The
dominant feature of the seal is an eagle We failed to recognize that there
are war-hke eagles and unwar-like eagles, that eagles may have their
wings extended straight out or curved gracefully upward, that some-
times eagles look like pigeons or grouse, and especially that a seal means
different things to different people With each succeeding draft, we got
more involved with generous criticisms, which were not always gentle
Finally, after perhaps six or seven renderings and several weeks of on -and -
off activities, a seal was prepared which was "acceptable " But, we also
learned a lesson—don't volunteer to prepare a design for a county
seal—.
