Regular Meeting
Public Hearings
Chairman Mason called the first public hearing to order at 5:33 p.m. concerning Local Law No. 1
of 1990 - Reduction of Real Property Tax Exemption Pursuant to Real Property Tax Law Section 485-b.
Chairman Mason asked if anyone wished to speak?
Tom Corey, Chamber of Commerce, said they are opposed to the County's non -participation in
Section 485-b of the Real Property Tax Law. Although the Tompkins County Industrial Development
Agency has picked up much of the necessary tax abatement for businesses, some small entrepreneurial
business may not be able to transfer ownership. Under 485-b it remains in the hands of the owner. They
have no way of telling if small businesses are losing their participation in tax abatement. He
recommended the proposed local law be effective for one year instead of two and to seek State legislation
that would allow a local law to specify the types of commercial business and industrial activities to be
eligible for the exemption.

February 20, 1990
Under privilege of the floor, Janet Fitchen, 376 Turkey Hill Road, said she understands the need
for the County's attempt to use the trash -tag system. However, her concerns are the regressive features of
the system are greater than can be addressed by the proposed measure, too costly to administer, and
people will find the cost of trash -tags a burden - the poor and near -poor residents of the County. She
requests the trash -tag system and trash -tag assistance proposal both be given more careful consideration
and public debate.
Under privilege of the floor, Tom Corey, Chamber of Commerce, invited the Board of
Representatives to a breakfast meeting April 2 at 8 a.m. in the Divi Executive Tower.

struggling to make ends meet on low-paying jobs and the absence of citizen involvement in the
development of the trash -tag system.
Under privilege of the floor, Will Burbank, Glenside Road, said he is concerned with the trash -tag
system. One concern is casual dumping along the roadsides, in the creeks, and in the woods; secondly, he
is concerned with the effect it will have on poor people. He urged the Board to re-examine the effects of
this program.
Under privilege of the floor, Dwight Mengel, Senior Planner, said Cornell University approved
the conceptual plan for a joint maintenance facility and the City of Ithaca will discuss the plan March 7.

Scouts cleaning -up areas?

Regular Meeting
Public Hearing
Chairman Mason called the public hearing to order at 5:30 p.m. concerning proposed Local Law
No. 4 of 1990 - Amending Local Law No. 3 of 1989 - Parking Regulations and Enforcement.
Chairman Mason asked if anyone wished to speak? No one wished to speak and the public
hearing was closed at 5:31 p.m.
Members and guests participated in the Pledge of Allegiance.
Present: 13 Representatives. Excused: 2 (Representatives Schuler and Watros).
It was Moved by Mrs. Dietrich, seconded by Mr. Proto, and unanimously adopted by voice vote
by all present, to approve the Board minutes of the October 24, 1989; March 6, 1990 and March 20, 1990
meetings.
Chairman Mason proclaimed April 22 - 28, 1990 as Tompkins County Consumer's Week.
Under privilege of the floor, Thomas Bonn, Etna, N.Y., and a member of the Citizens Advisory
Committee and CROWD, Inc., stated he did not want CROWD and the Town of Dryden becoming
scapegoats for solid waste problems. He said CROWD and the Town of Dryden used all legal and
legitimate means to responsibly oppose the landfill siting. He also said these same arguments were a
concern of New York State Department of Environmental Conservation's (NYSDEC) administrative law
judge and have found preliminary support from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
Under privilege of the floor, Larry Chace, Etna, and a member of CROWD, Inc., said he was
concerned with the recent comments concerning the delays contributing to CROWD. He said one of the
major delays was the County's refusal to handle for a period of time the DEC's demand for additional
deep testing made first verbally by DEC's representative Frank Trent in September 1988 and in writing
November 1988 which many citizens of Dryden did not hear about until March 1989. He asked the
Board to review backup sites and raised questions about the pore pressure zone.
Under privilege of the floor, Nancy Ten Kate, 235 Wood Road, Freeville, said the alleged delays
should lie with the County's consulting firm (O'Brien and Gere). She said CROWD and the Town. of
Dryden opposed the DR -7 site within the framework of the SEQR law, and any lawsuits or appeals have
been simultaneous with the landfill permitting process. She also said they brought the U.S. Army Corps
of Engineers into the process but until the Corps of Engineers is the only thing holding up the site,
citizens of Dryden have not caused the delay. She said they should have blocked the County from
entering the site. It worked for the people in Allegany County and the Governor halted testing of the low-
level nuclear waste sites. She spoke in favor of the tag system and to recycle everything possible.
Under privilege of the floor, Donald Barber, Environmental Management Council, spoke in
support of Earth Day and announced programs that would be available.
Under privilege of the floor, Mr. Evans objected to remarks on public television by Chairman
Mason that Town of Dryden and CROWD who delayed the landfill to cause the trucking of trash. He
mentioned delays he felt were the County's responsibility. He also said that if the information is not
available, decisions cannot be made.
Under privilege of the floor, Mr. Stein spoke about the William Waltman report on the quality of
work done on soils in the DR -7 site. He distributed the report to the Board and media. Mr. Stein said he
89
April 17, 1990
is not a soils expert and would like to hire an objective reviewer to deal with the quality of the
information.
Under privilege of the floor, Chairman Mason said the memorandum from William Waltman
came to him on Cornell University letterhead, but Cornell or the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences
has no statement or position on this issue. He said Mr. Waltman's and Mr. Chace's comments are almost
identical. It is not news, the Board has access to Mr. Chace's remarks which have been responded to in
the Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) on file in the Board office. He said he hadn't had a
chance to read Waltman's report but had sent a draft to Stearns and Wheler to review and advise the
Board if there is cause for legitimate concern. Stearns and Wheler felt that talking with Mr. Waltman,
O'Brien and Gere, and County staff would clear up a lot of concerns raised, and Mr. Mason recommends
that meeting take place. After meeting with the Corps of Engineers in Buffalo it appears there are
problems which may take years before getting a permit, not necessarily from New York State Department
of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC). The Corps of Engineers process itself and the appeals
process that you go through to get a Corps permit are appealed all the way through the EPA, U.S. Fish
and Wildlife, all the way up to the Assistant Secretary of the Army. He said in reference to his remarks
about CROWD and the Town of Dryden, he felt there was no question but they will take every
opportunity to appeal that process. Terrestrial Environmental Services is working with the Corps of
Engineers and has already done two weeks of extended fieldwork at the DR -7 site which is required by
the Corps of Engineers. Terrestrial Environmental Services presented to the Corps on April 5 soils maps
for all of the 23 sites on the County's list and every one of those have very similar soils. It is not a simple
process and to have a third party interject at this point just extends the complexity that faces it.
Mr. Stein urged moving ahead to hire a third reviewer, and said he would not support paying
O'Brien and Gere to review their own material.
Under privilege of the floor, Mr. Winch said the letter he received from Madison Wright had been
sent to Solid Waste in a timely fashion and it has been well debated. He also said he felt his integrity has
been well established, and every member of the Board wants the best environmentally safe landfill for
their constituents.
Under privilege of the floor, Mrs. Livesay suggested review of backup sites and to make every
effort on recycling and volume reduction of our solid waste. She also asked if this Board should be doing
more to encourage people to mail back their census forms.
Mr. Proto, Chairman, Airport Development Committee, said the committee will meet April 25,
1990 at the Crash/Fire/Rescue Building.
Mr. Proto, Chairman of the Health and Education Committee, said the committee met briefly
before the Board meeting and approved the resolution entitled Authorizing Change in Sliding Fee Scale -
Certified Home Health Agency. The next committee meeting is April 24. Mr. Proto said he was formerly
appointed to the Hospital Board of Directors at their last meeting.
Mr. Culligan, Chairman, Public Safety and Corrections Committee, said the committee met April
5. He said a discussion was held on the emergency number so that if a 911 is dialed by mistake it would
get back to an appropriate local number, 273-8000. The County has not made a commitment to purchase
a 911 system. The committee is examining an enhancement of the present system. Chairman Mason said
he will be appointing an E911 Task Force Committee.
Mrs. Call, Chairman, Human Services Committee, said the committee met April 6 and had an
orientation on Foodnet. Nancy Zahler, Youth Bureau Director, reported to the committee that the Crime
Prevention program of the Economic Opportunity Corporation which serves the youth of Tompkins
County schools has been suspended and will not be able to use the matching funds provided by the
90
April 17, 1990
County for 1990. The committee directed Ms. Zahler to seek an alternative recommendation for those
funds. She also updated the Board on other committee business. She said the Advisory Board on
Affordable Housing held its first meeting April 16.
Mr. Stein, Chairman, Planning and Economic Development Committee, introduced James W.
Hanson, Jr., Planning Commissioner. The next committee meeting will be April 23 at noon. He updated
the Board on the room tax legislation pertaining to Cornell University. Discussions continue regarding
housing for the elderly and discussions have begun concerning the possible move of Ithacare for the land
at the Hospital. He reported on the Post Office move and believes an architect has been hired for a new
Post Office facility on Warren Road.
Mr. Winch, Chairman of the Public Works and Construction Management Committee, reported
on the developments of the Mental Health Facility. He reported on a meeting held at the Ithaca
Wastewater Treatment Plant on the situation of composting sludge and how it will be handled.
Mrs. Livesay, Chairman, Personnel Committee, said the next committee meeting will be May 1.
The committee will be meeting with Ray Greene and Tom Pillsworth from the New York State Civil
Service Reclassification and will be presenting a Pay Equity Study.
Mrs. Call, Vice Chairman, Budget and Administration Committee, said the committee met twice.
On April 9 the committee met with Don Cafferillo, Deputy City Controller, to discuss significant
inequities in the process used to apportion Ithaca City School taxes among the various municipalities.
The committee agreed to pay $8,000 to New York State Supervisors and County Legislators for the
services of Roemer and Featherstonhaugh, P.C. The committee also dealt with the Human Services
Coalition Guidelines resolution but did not pass it. The committee authorized the County Administrator
to schedule meetings on installment taxes. The committee also met April 12 to discuss the Charter and
Code.
Mr. Mulvey, County Attorney, said the County won seven assessment cases brought by Kmart.
Chairman Mason granted Mr. Winch permission to withdraw the resolution entitled Approval of
Payment - O'Brien and Gere Engineers, Inc.
It was Moved by Mr. Stein, seconded by Mrs. Livesay, to add to the agenda the resolution
entitled Retaining Peer Review Expert in Soils to Review DR -7 Soils Information. A voice vote resulted
as follows: Ayes - 12, Noes - 1 (Representative Call), Excused - 2 (Representatives Schuler and Watros).

WHEREAS, the Board of Representatives desires Tompkins County funds for health and human

department heads to be allocated in a manner that best meets the needs for these services, and
WHEREAS, the Human Services Coalition is established and funded in part by Tompkins County
to provide an objective overview of health and human service needs and provisions based on expert
analysis, now therefore be it
RESOLVED, on recommendation of the Human Services Committee, That the Human Services
Coalition is requested, pursuant to the 1990 contract with Tompkins County, to recommend to the Board
of Representatives, no later than September 1, 1990, a total allocation in two separate portions as follows:
Allocation #1: $220,000, to be adjusted once budget guidelines are in place, to follow the same general
guidelines as County departments, for programs which have been reviewed in a previous year;
Allocation #2: $19,781 for programs which are new, meaning they have not received this type of County
review and funding before.
All recommendations shall include an explanation of the reasons for or against funding, and why the
specific amount was recommended.
RESOLVED, further, That the following process shall be used by the Coalition in its review of
requests for the funding:
1. The Coalition may recommend funding for a portion of a request;
2. The Coalition is not required to recommend expenditure of all of the funds allocated by the
County;
3. By September 1, 1990, the Human Services Coalition shall present the results of its review of
all requests with a priority list within both dollar allocations as established by the Board of
Representatives;
4. Special situations shall be referred to the Chairman of the Budget and Administration
Committee before the Coalition begins its review process;
5. An application for funding shall not be reviewed by the Coalition unless the applying agency
is represented at the Coalition's orientation session or unless other arrangements have been made
in advance;
101
April 17, 1990
6. The Coalition may discontinue its review of any agency application; in the event this occurs,
the Board of Representatives shall be notified and all documentation shall be provided by the
Coalition of its reasons for taking such action;
7. Funding applications must state the benefits to be derived from implementation of the program
and the specific goals of the program;
8. If, during the review process, a program does not meet the minimum standards established by
the Human Services Coalition, the Coalition may consider recommending conditional funding.
The Coalition will recommend the conditions of the funding.
9. If the total dollars in #2 category of requests, as defined above, are not recommended, any
remaining dollars will be added to the total available in category #1, as defined above.
10. If any agency decides not to offer a service, or the Human Services Coalition determines
during the review process that a provider is no longer able to offer the service, but the need for
the service is still found to be high, the Human Services Coalition may request that money be
encumbered for that service, subject to final review and recommendation by the Human Services
Coalition to the Human Services Committee.
11. If any program, previously reviewed through the Human Services Coalition process, is to be
reviewed through any other County process in 1990, the 1990 dollars attached to the program will
be part of that review process.
RESOLVED, further, That the Coalition will use as the basis for allocation of funds the following
criteria:
1. Severity of the need that the program addresses in Tompkins County;
2. Agency's organizational ability to deliver proposed services;
3. Effect on the Tompkins County community if the service is not available or is available at a
reduced level;
4. Effect on Tompkins County departments if the service is no longer available or available at a
reduced level;
5. Effect on other health or human service providers if the service is no longer available or is
available at a reduced level;
6. Agency financial need, including needs caused by cost of living increases;
7. Duplication of service;
8. Countywide service delivery;
9. Financial need of the client population, i.e., population to be served can be shown to be a
population in financial need.
RESOLVED, further, That in its 1991 Work Plan, the Coalition will continue a systematic review
of all agencies receiving health or human service grant funding from Tompkins County. This review
shall evaluate efficiency of agency administration and effectiveness of service delivery. The Coalition
shall make a recommendation to the appropriate program committee and the Budget and Administration
Committee for recommending to the Board of Representatives by December 1, 1990 a plan for this
review and specific actions to be taken in 1991,
RESOLVED, further, That the Human Services Committee in coordination with the Human
Services Coalition is asked to continue exploration of multi-year funding and other areas, as part of
looking at the entire funding review process,
RESOLVED, further, That the Human Services Coalition devise a plan, the goal of which is to
reduce by 25% the total time and money agencies must spend on local review by funders for the 1992
funding cycle and by 25% for the 1993 funding cycle.

WHEREAS, experience has shown that the average weight of trash currently being put out by
homeowners is between 15 and 20 pounds, and
WHEREAS, the current cost of a trash disposal tag is based upon a bag which would hold 35
pounds, and
WHEREAS, many homeowners appear to be holding trash for more than one week in order to fill
cans before they use a 35 pound tag, and
WHEREAS, warm weather will be upon us soon, thereby potentially causing problems of odor
and health for cans of trash that are not disposed of by homeowners weekly, and

considerably less than this amount represents a significant windfall of money paid by homeowners to

Special Board Meeting
Chairman Mason called the meeting to order at 4:05 p.m.
Members and guests participated in the Pledge of Allegiance.
Present: 14 Representatives. Excused: 1 (Representative Watros; Representative Shurtleff left at
5:30 p.m.; and Representative Schuler left at 5:46 p.m.).
Chairman Mason asked James Dwyer, Consulting Attorney, to give the Board an overview of the
situation to call the Special Board meeting.
Mr. Dwyer said the purpose of the meeting was to discuss the missing soil samples and how it
happened. He said at this time during the Permit process the County is at the Interim Appeal to the
Commissioner because of the rulings of the Administrative Law Judge as to what are the issues and
parties subject at the Factual Hearing. The Administrative Law Judge has ordered the County to submit a
Pre -Filed Testimony relative to the limited issues that were subject to the Factual Hearing. Those limited
issues had to do with the high ground -water situation at the DR -7 site. Mr. Dwyer said he was working
with Stearns and Wheler to commence the draft copy of the Pre -Filed Testimony. He said he wanted to
give the County's witnesses (Stearns and Wheler) an opportunity to prepare themselves and examine the
soil samples that were taken at DR -7. There is a regulation that the samples must be maintained for a
certain amount of time and bedrock samples must be maintained for the life of the project. Therefore, in
consultation with the Solid Waste staff and Stearns and Wheler, we endeavored to locate where the
samples were. The only samples found were in the County's possession. Mr. Dwyer said he asked for an
inventory (July or August) of those samples and only came up with approximately 20 percent. He and
County staff asked the County's contractor, O'Brien and Gere, and O'Brien and Gere's subcontractor,
Empire Soils, for the County's samples. O'Brien and Gere and Empire Soils said they did not have any
further samples. Empire Soils indicated at that time that some soil samples had been discarded by them.
The situation was discussed by Barbara Eckstrom, Solid Waste Manager, and Empire Soils on how and
why the samples were discarded under the circumstances. Barbara Eckstrom said Empire Soils indicated
they discarded the samples because of the lack of space and take full responsibility. Mr. Dwyer said the
normal procedure with Empire Soils before discarding samples is notifying the client to get written
authorization to do so. In this incident, no written authorization was prepared. Mr. Dwyer said he then
contacted O'Brien and Gere and O'Brien and Gere stated verbally they were responsible and would make
it good. Mr. Dwyer said he also contacted the New York State Department of Environmental
Conservation (NYSDEC) about the incident that occurred and that the County was in the process of
inventorying. Mr. Dwyer said the County would have to ask for a variance from the NYSDEC
regulations to perform sampling at five foot intervals instead of continuous sampling. He said there are
two aspects to replacing the samples: (1) physical drilling; (2) monitoring of the drilling. He said he and
County staff were going to look to O'Brien and Gere to reimburse the County to have this done by a third
party drilling organization and third party engineering firm. In discussions, it was pointed out that
O'Brien and Gere and Empire Soils were willing to do what NYSDEC required at no expense to the
County. A meeting was established September 10 at Mr. Dwyer's office. Mr. Heyman, County
Administrator, and Mr. Dwyer attended the meeting on behalf of the County, Bob Terresti, Ted Tifft and
their attorney (Edward Moses) of O'Brien and Gere, and Mary L'Amoreaux, Office Manager at Empire
Soils, also attended. O'Brien and Gere and Empire Soils at that time agreed to proceed providing a
variance was approved with the work that was recommended to be accomplished by Frank Trent of
NYSDEC and a draft contract was going to be put together. On September 11, Ted Tifft of O'Brien and
Gere had a conversation with Barbara Eckstrom indicating that there were other samples available that
were with Parat and Wolf and O'Brien and Gere. Mr. Dwyer then spoke to Mr. Moses to see what was
going on. Another day transpired, and on Wednesday, September 12, Mr. Moses said it was all a mistake
and that they did not have any samples. Mr. Dwyer spoke to Mr. Moses again and said County staff was
going to fully disclose what had transpired to the Board of Representatives and ask that a proposed
213
September 19, 1990
contract be submitted as soon as possible that O'Brien and Gere and Empire Soils would do this work at
no cost to the County to satisfy the requirements of NYSDEC providing the County obtain a variance.
Mr. Dwyer said as far as a variance is concerned it is not his assumption that it is subject to an
adjudicatory hearing but could be decided by documents submitted by the prospective interested parties in
the hearing process. He said that if the work has to be done, the staffs recommendation and his is that
Stearns and Wheler observe the work that is being done by Empire Soils because Stearns and Wheler will
have to do that anyway to prepare for the hearing process. He suggested the Board consider two things:
(1) Enter into a contract with O'Brien and Gere and with Empire Soils to do the work according to what is
required by Frank Trent and NYSDEC at no cost to the County; (2) Authorize the submission of a
variance application relative to what has transpired.
After further discussion, it was Moved by Mrs. Call, seconded by Mr. Todd, and unanimously
adopted by voice vote by all present, to hold an executive session to discuss litigation. An executive
session was held at 5:03 p.m. and on motion, the meeting returned to regular session at 6:02 p.m.
On motion, the meeting adjourned at 6:02 p.m.

his concerns regarding the resolution opposing changes to Section 1197 of Article 31 of the Vehicle and
Traffic Law which would allow New York State to withhold two percent of STOP -DWI revenues. Mr.
215
September 25, 1990
Beach urged the Board to support the resolution. He said it could reduce anticipated revenues by $2,300
in Tompkins County.
Mrs. Call, Chairman, Human Services Committee, said the committee met twice, September 7th
and 14th. She said the committee passed a number of resolutions. She also said Mary Pat Dolan,
Department of Social Services (DSS) Commissioner, discussed with the committee the Client Satisfaction
Questionnaire. The questionnaire was distributed to DSS clients. The results of the questionnaire to be
worked on are (1) waiting room; (2) timeliness of response; (3) attitude - customer service. On
September 14, the committee discussed the Economic Opportunity Corporation's proposal regarding the
homeless. She said the committee will be discussing budgets September 28 and October 5. She reported

the future.
Mr. Stein, Chairman of the Planning and Economic Development Committee, said the committee
had a special meeting September 17. At that time, the committee reviewed staffing at the County
Planning Department and approved the report of the Advisory Board on Tourism Development. The
committee also discussed at length the Environmental Management Council's final draft of the critical
areas study of Tompkins County. He said the committee will meet October 10 to review their budgets.
Mr. Winch, Chairman of the Public Works and Construction Management Committee, distributed
a booklet he and Robert Watros received entitled "Conservation Districts - Their Origin, Development
and Functions" by Mary M. Garner. Mr. Winch reported on the joint maintenance facility. He said an
interim agreement has not been signed by all parties (Tompkins County, City of Ithaca, and Cornell
University). He reported on the Mental Health Building's projected budget and contingency fund. He
said the transfer station of the Central Processing Facility permit application was complete, but the
recycling portion needs some work. He reported on the article in the Ithaca Journal regarding preloading
and foundations at the Central Processing Facility Commercial Avenue site. He said other types of
foundations were reviewed by Resource Associates. After this review Resource Associates recommended
using the wick system of preloading.
Chairman Mason said he is requesting a Special Order of the Day at the next Board meeting to

Regular Meeting
Public Hearing
Chairman Mason called the public hearing to order at 5:30 p.m. concerning a local law
implementing a tag system for the collection of household solid waste. The local law was referred to
committee later in the meeting.
Chairman Mason asked if anyone wished to speak?
Benjamin Nichols, City of Ithaca Mayor, requested the City of Ithaca run their own trash tag
system. He felt all municipalities should have their own trash tag, but give the City of Ithaca a chance to
run their own system.
Ronald Anderson, Village of Cayuga Heights Mayor, spoke in favor of exempting municipal
haulers from the trash tag system as long as they are making satisfactory progress in reducing solid waste.
William Burbank, 132 Glenside Road, Town of Ithaca, said although the system is basically
working there will be a fairly major tax increase and he was concerned about what the money would be
buying.
Mrs. Call read a statement by Dooley Kiefer. Dooley Kiefer felt the trash tag system would be
appropriate and acceptable if it were modified as follows: (1) Every family or residential unit be given
one "free" trash can pickup per week; (2) Modification made in the size, weight, or volume of cans, and
their cost; (3) The measure used in filling up the landfill should be by volume not weight; (4) Also, the
question of effectiveness should be addressed; and (5) Relief should be provided from tipping fees or
trash tags for non-profit agencies or volunteer groups that undertake cleanup days.
No one else wished to speak and the public hearing was closed at 5:56 p.m.
Members and guests participated in the Pledge of Allegiance.
Present: 15 Representatives.
The August 14, 1990 minutes were approved as submitted.
Chairman Mason read two proclamations declaring the week of October 7 - 13, 1990 as Mental
Illness Awareness Week and the month of October as Disability Employment Awareness. Chairman
Mason presented the two proclamations to Milt Goldstein, Executive Director, Challenge Industries.
Chairman Mason also declared October 7 - 13, 1990 as 4-H Week and October 8 - 14, 1990 as
Federation of New York Insurance Women's Week.
Under privilege of the floor, Steven Uzmann, 170 Hillview Road, West Danby, said the County is
trying their best to ensure that the future solid waste disposal facility will be clean, quiet, odor free and
environmentally safe but expressed his concern about Landstrom landfill continuing to operate until a
new landfill is operational. He asked that a determination be made in the next six months of the best
alternative disposal plan and then close the Landstrom landfill at the earliest date.
Under privilege of the floor, Joel Gagnon, West Danby, said he was speaking as a member of the
landfill monitoring group in West Danby. He spoke about the following human impacts of the Landstrom
landfill: traffic, fear of groundwater and surface water contamination and odor.
234
October 9, 1990
Under privilege of the floor, Brian Caldwell, West Danby, said he and his wife are farmers and
raise certified organically grown produce and lamb and are concerned about the potential of groundwater
contamination from the landfill.
Under privilege of the floor, Brian Eden, West Danby and Danby Landfill Monitoring
Committee, spoke about the existence of substantial quantities of industrial and commercial waste in the
refuse pile.
Under privilege of the floor, Nancy Schuler brought to the Board's attention a draft resolution
concerning the creation of a Tompkins County Waste Management Council. She asked that the resolution
be referred to the appropriate committee. Chairman Mason referred the resolution to the Public Works
and Construction Management Committee.
landfill.
Chairman Mason asked Barabara Eckstrom to update the Board concerning the Landstrom
Barbara Eckstrom, Solid Waste Manager, gave a brief presentation and slide show to the Board
updating them on the status of the Landstrom landfill. She said groundwater pollution was found at the
Landstrom Landfill. The leachate which is a form of garbage runoff spreads from the landfill around all
directions. Also, she says a moderate amount of pollution was found in the Cayuga Inlet System. The
well testing near the landfill showed pollutants exceeded State limits over three (3) percent of the time,
but decreased farther away from the landfill. She said that if that pollution continues downstream,
impacting wetlands, destroying vegetation and creating an irreparable situation, then it is cause for
concern. She said more monitoring wells around the landfill to watch pollution are being installed and a
new leachate collection system should reduce the potential for pollution.
Chairman Mason requested Barbara Eckstrom, Solid Waste Manager, to address the Board
November 20 to discuss the DR -7 landfill status of wetlands and sampling.
Chairman Mason declared recess at 7:16 p.m. The meeting reconvened at 7:26 p.m.
Mr. Proto, Chairman of the Airport Development Committee, said the committee has not met but
will meet October 12 at 11:30 a.m. to review the Airport's portion of the Capital Program Budget.
Mr. Proto, Chairman of the Health and Education Committee, said the committee met twice to
review the budget. He said the committee will meet October 19 at noon to discuss modifying the budget
because the committee has exceeded the 1990 five (5) percent guideline. The next regularly scheduled
committee meeting is October 30. He reported on the conference he and Alice Cole, head nurse at the
Tompkins County Public Health Department, attended October 3 regarding HIV/AIDS. He said 14
representatives from Tompkins County attended the conference. He also reported on the activities of the
Board of Health concerning rabies and the Sanitary Code. The committee will meet jointly with the
Human Services Committee on November 2 at noon to review the FOCUS survey.
Mr. Culligan, Chairman, Public Safety and Corrections Committee, said he did not have a report,
but the committee will meet October 10 at noon and at 12:30 p.m. the committee will review the budget.
Mrs. Call, Chairman of the Human Services Committee, said the committee met October 5 and
just before the Board meeting. The committee finished their budget work. She said most of the
committee's actions will reflect on the October 23 Board agenda. She reported on other committee
business.

and demolition material is down about 8 percent. He reported some of the agenda items the committee
would be discussing at the October 10 committee meeting.

and reviewed budgets of departments reporting to the committee. The next committee meeting will be
October 15 for their regular meeting. He reviewed his observations with the standing committees in
reviewing the 1991 budget.
Mr. Heyman, County Administrator, reminded the Board that copies of the proposals regarding
the wetlands attorney are on file in his office for review and that he and James Mason will be meeting to
review the proposals and make a recommendation to the committee. The Budget and Administration
Committee will receive a report from the Director of Assessment regarding the reappraisals at the October
15 meeting.
Ms. Mink reported on the meeting that she and two representatives from Stearns and Wheler;
Barry Evans, President of Geo Decisions; Scott Heyman, County Administrator; Barbara Eckstrom, Solid

Regular Meeting
Public Hearing
Chairman Mason called the public hearing to order at 5:30 p.m. concerning a proposed agreement
for the provision of a rental car concession - Avis Rent A Car System, Inc. - at the Tompkins County
Airport.
Chairman Mason asked if anyone wished to speak?
Jonathan A. Orkin, Hertz Corporation, said that although Hertz was not here to say they were
against having Avis at the Airport, he expressed concern about the County bidding procedures in allowing
Avis to come in at this time when Hertz and Budget bid on what they felt were two counter spaces only;
the concession payments percentage or a minimum annual amount; and location of return car parking
spaces at the Airport. He requested the County to do what is right and fair.
Edward C. Hooks, Harris Beach Law Firm representing Budget Rent A Car, said that the Budget
proposal submitted was based on two counter spots and the $3,500 minimum per month was based on two
rental car agencies at the Airport and in projecting how many cars to be purchased. He also expressed
concern about moving of parking arrangements.
No one else wished to speak and the public hearing was closed at 5:45 p.m.
Members and guests participated in the Pledge of Allegiance.

Processing Facility.

Regular Meeting
Public Hearing
Chairman Mason called the public hearing to order at 5:30 p.m. concerning proposed Local Law
No. 10 of 1990 - Tag System for Collection of Household Solid Waste.
Chairman Mason asked if anyone wished to speak?
No one wished to speak and the public hearing was closed at 5:32 p.m.
Members and guests participated in the Pledge of Allegiance.
Present: 13 Representatives. Excused: 2 (Representatives Shurtleff and Watros).
The minutes of the October 9 and October 23, 1990 Board meetings were approved as corrected.
Chairman Mason asked Barbara Eckstrom, Solid Waste Manager, to update the Board on the DR -
7 landfill issues.
Barbara Eckstrom, Solid Waste Manager, updated the Board on the following two aspects staff
and consultants are currently involved with at the proposed DR -7 landfill site: 1) status of the Corps of
Engineers Federal wetlands on the site; and 2) status of the Confirmatory Borings Program. She gave an
overview of Federal Wetlands Protection and how the Wetland Program differs from New York State
Department of Environmental Conservation's and their relevance to the proposed DR -7 project. Only
three of the Nationwide permits are potentially applicable for proposed DR -7: Nationwide 12 - backfill
and bedding for utility lines; Nationwide 14 - minor road crossings; Nationwide 26 - small amount of fill
"above headwaters" or "isolated waters". If the project does not qualify for a Nationwide permit, an
Individual permit would be sought (requiring a rigorous and costly alternatives analysis). There are at
least four possible options at DR -7: No jurisdiction (activities be kept out of wetlands), Nationwide 26
permit (no further notice to Corps of Engineers if less than one acre), Individual permit (required if more
than 10 acres), Individual and Nationwide (only be combined if activity covered by Nationwide is
independent). She briefly reviewed the DR -7 landfill Confirmatory Boring Program. She said the
confirmatory borings were completed on November 2, 1990, soil samples and rock cores were transferred
to the County, and test pits were completed on November 16, 1990. She also said a summary report will
be provided concerning boring and test pit logs, photographs of rock cores, chain of custody procedures,
interpretation of geology, and comparison with O'Brien and Gere's work.
Under privilege of the floor, Mr. Evans said he received a report from the County Attorney
answering Resolution No. 370 of September 25, 1990 which directed the Public Works and Construction
Management Committee to "list the three highest ranked landfill sites by criteria of the Army Corps of
Engineers". The Army Corps of Engineers said there are no criteria to rank landfill sites, but that the
criteria is developed by applicants in alternative analysis. Mr. Evans said that was not the intent of the
resolution and next time he will be more clear.
Under privilege of the floor, Mrs. Livesay commended Mr. Collins, hauler, for his service. The
recent procedure for purchasing trash tags also includes the cost of hauling.
Under privilege of the floor, Mrs. Schuler encouraged the Board to watch the "Recycling: A
Love Story" video. (The video was shown at the December 18, 1990 Board meeting.)
Mr. Proto, Chairman, Airport Development Committee, said the committee met today. The
committee reviewed funding options and discussed legislation permitting the County to charge a fee of up
331
November 20, 1990
to $3 on departure tickets. The committee voted to give the consultants permission to move ahead with
the new terminal location and that a topographical map and a survey of actual property boundaries be
completed.
Mr. Proto, Chairman, Health and Education Committee, reported on the New York State
Community Arts Partnership conference he attended. He said the committee will meet November 27. He
read a news release concerning the School Inoculation Program.
Mr. Culligan, Chairman of the Public Safety and Corrections Committee, said the committee will
be meeting December 6. Mrs. Dietrich said the committee requested the Sheriff provide information on
the jail population figures on why the inmates are incarcerated. Also, the committee discussed the
shortage of storage space for food supply at the jail. The committee also approved a resolution giving
permission to the Fire, Disaster and EMS Coordinator and Public Health Director to create a written
emergency plan for a potable water supply through the Local Emergency Planning Committee.
Mrs. Schuler, E911 Task Force, said the committee meets once a month. The committee had a
presentation from Nytel and a representative from Cooper and Lybrand. She said every residence should
have a house number. The next meeting is December 19.
Ms. Mink, Special Committee on Peer Review, said several representatives of Geo Decisions
were on the site of DR -7 and have finished their preliminary field work. They will be reviewing O'Brien
and Gere's material. In addition, the Board of Regents will be consulting with the State Board of
Engineers regarding the complaint on O'Brien and Gere.
Mrs. Call, Chairman of the Human Services Committee, said the committee met with the
Planning and Economic Development Committee to review the Advisory Board on Affordable Housing
report. She reported on proposed sites for the Economic Opportunity Corporation shelter and also
reported on a food pantry meeting she attended.
Mr. Stein, Chairman of the Planning and Economic Development Committee, said the committee
had three special meetings. The committee met with the City of Ithaca's Mayor and Planning Committee
Chairman concerning downtown planning. The message communicated was the downtown area remain
the same. The committee also discussed current office space and local jobs policy proposed legislation.
The Chamber of Commerce has requested they be heard on the local jobs policy. In addition, the
committee discussed televising Board meetings. Ms. Mink reported on the subject of televising Board
meetings. She said 75-80 percent of the population get cable.
Mr. Winch, Chairman of the Public Works and Construction Management Committee, said a
letter was distributed to the Board by Chairman Mason to hopefully have a meeting with Martin Luster,

the disposal of solid waste and the resulting inclination of those who may seek to avoid such costs by
depositing such material along highways, vacant lots, on business sites, in private dumpsters, and other
