3. Report of Fire Superintendent Tamborelle: (Exhibit FYE2016-055)
Response for the Fall Recruiting Dinner to be held on Saturday, October 3, 2015 has been excellent. There have been forty-
three RSVPs to date. There are ten potential recruits who are already EMTs. Twenty recruits will be accepted into the class.
Superintendent Tamborelle has been asked if the fire station will be available on November 7, 2015 in order for the CHES
PTA to hold their annual fundraising auction there as it has in past years. A Special Event Permit will be sought; they will
request a waiver of the application fee.
A question related to the cost of painting the interior of 825Hanshaw Road was raised. The board is satisfied that the
Procurement Policy was followed; Superintendent Tamborelle will provide a list of contractors from whom bids were
requested. Primetime Painters was the only respondent to be willing and able to commit to the necessary timeframe.
A suggestion was made to move consideration of the Fire Company’s request for approval of their annual fundraising letter to
this point. (EXHIBIT 2016-058) For the benefit of newer board members the distinction between the fire department and the fire
company was stated. The Cayuga Heights Fire Department is supported by taxpayer dollars and provides the facility, equipment,
and maintenance thereof. Fire Superintendent Tamborelle is paid as a part-time employee of the Village. The Fire Company
handles recruitment and training.
Resolution #7687

Resolution #7688
BE IT RESOLVED THAT: The Village of Cayuga Heights Board of Trustees approves proposed Local Law C of the Year
2015: A Local Law to Rescind the Override of the Tax Levy Limit Established in General Municipal Law §3-C.

b. Southern Cayuga Lake Intermunicipal Water Commission (SCLIWC) – Bolton Point Water System: Agreement
to Change Water Rate Schedule (EXHIBIT 2016-057)
Each year, participating parties to the SCLIWC agreement review and have consistently, unanimously approved
amendment of Exhibit I of Schedule A of the agreement in order to set a water rate for the upcoming fiscal year. For the
year commencing on January 1, 2016, it is proposed that the water rate be raised by $.09/1,000 gallons to $4.44/1,000
gallons. The Finance Committee of the Commission prepares the budget and sets the rate as needed to cover proposed
expenditures. A change in the rate structure has not as yet been adopted by the Commission. Trustee Woodard
expressed her opinion that use of a 10,000 minimum usage charge is unfair and places a burden on low quantity water
users. A change to the rate structure could be implemented at any time. Each municipality must approve the water rate
in order for it to go into effect.
Resolution #7689
THIS AGREEMENT to change Water Rate Schedule is made as of the 1st day of January, 2016, between the TOWN BOARD
OF THE TOWN OF DRYDEN, Tompkins County, New York, on its own behalf and on behalf of all water districts in the
TOWN OF DRYDEN served by the Southern Cayuga Lake Intermunicipal Water Commission, (hereafter referred to as
“Dryden ”), the TOWN BOARD OF THE TOWN OF ITHACA, Tompkins County, New York (hereinafter referred to as
“Ithaca”), the TOWN BOARD OF THE TOWN OF LANSING, Tompkins County, New York, on its own behalf and on behalf
of the Town of Lansing Consolidated Water District and the Town of Lansing Consolidated Water District Extension #1 & #2
(the Town of Lansing and such districts are hereinafter collectively referred to as “Lansing Town”), VILLAGE OF LANSING,
on its own behalf and as successor to LANSING WATER DISTRICT 1, Tompkins County, New York, (hereinafter referred to
as “Lansing Village”), and VILLAGE OF CAYUGA HEIGHTS, Tompkins County, New York, therein after referred to as
“Cayuga Heights”), all of the parties hereto sometimes collectively or individually referred to hereinafter as “Municipalities” or
“Municipality”,
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, the above named municipalities have entered into an amended, supplemental, restated and consolidated agreement
of municipal cooperation for construction, financing and operation of an intermunicipal water supply and transmission system
dated as of June 5, 1979 as the same has been amended from time to time (the “Agreement”); and
WHEREAS, pursuant to the Agreement each municipality agreed to pay to the Southern Cayuga Lake Intermunicipal Water
Commission (hereinafter referred to as “Commission”), water revenues based upon, in part, a water rate schedule annexed as
Exhibit I of Schedule A to the Agreement; and
WHEREAS, based on changes in costs, the Commission believes it is advisable to adopt a new water rate schedule in the form
annexed to this modification agreement; and
WHEREAS, Schedule A of the Agreement provides that the water rate schedule may not be changed by the Commission
without the written agreement to such change of all the parties; and
WHEREAS, Exhibit I of Schedule A to the Agreement has been amended from time to time since the initial date of the
Agreement; and
WHEREAS, the parties believe it is necessary to amend Exhibit I of Schedule A further; and
WHEREAS, the parties are willing to agree to such change;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual undertakings of the parties pursuant to the Agreement,
the parties hereby agree that Exhibit I of Schedule A annexed to the Agreement be amended effective January 1, 2016 to read as
set forth on the Exhibit I annexed hereto, and such exhibit is adopted as Exhibit I, the water rate schedule, for all purposes under
the Agreement.
This modification agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts which, when taken together, shall constitute a complete
document even though each of the counterparts may not bear the signatures of all of the parties.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this agreement to become effective as of the day and year set forth above.
SIGNATURE PAGES FOR ALL PARTIES FOLLOW
EXHIBIT I
SCLIWC - BOLTON POINT WATER SYSTEM
2016 WATER RATE SCHEDULE
EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 2016
RATE STRUCTURE:
The flat rate charge per 1,000 gallons shall be non-fluctuating and equal to four dollars and forty four cents ($4.44). This rate is
equal to three dollars and thirty two cents ($3.32) per 100 cubic feet. The foregoing rate will be the rate charged for all regular
quarterly bills sent after January 1, 2016. Actual or base consumption may occur prior to January 1, 2016.
MINIMUM BASE CHARGES:
Notwithstanding the foregoing rate structure, the following minimum base charges shall be applicable to the meter size indicated
below, for regular quarterly bills sent after January 1, 2016. The table below shows the amount of water consumption that is
permitted before the minimum base charge would be exceeded:
BASE MINIMUM BASE
METER SIZE CONSUMPTION CHARGE
(INCHES) (GALLONS) (DOLLARS)
3/4 10,000 44.40
1 30,000 133.20
1-1/2 45,000 199.80
2 90,000 399.60
3 140,000 621.60
4 200,000 888.00
≥6 350,000 1,554.00
Multiple Housing and mobile home parks of over two dwelling units, using a master meter, will be computed as follows: The
quarterly master meter reading will be divided by the number of dwelling units and the water charge will be figured on this
number as if the unit was individually metered. The water charge will then be multiplied by the number of units on the master
meter and this will be the billing rendered. If the calculation of the water consumed per dwelling unit is less than the allowable
consumption for a three-quarter inch meter, then the billing will be calculated by multiplying the number of units on the master
meter times the minimum base charge for a three-quarter inch meter (e.g., if there were 20 dwelling units on the master meter,
and total water consumption shown by the master meter was 100,000 gallons, the Commission billing would be $888.00 (20
units times $44.40) rather than $444.00 (100,000 gallons at $4.44/1000 gallons))
An annual charge for each fire protection main serving a fire suppression system will be billed along with the first quarterly
water bill of the calendar year.

e. Kline Road Zoning Board Question:
Background information was presented on a situation before the Zoning Board of Appeals (ZBA). A variance was
granted for installation of fencing on a property. Subsequently a building permit was sought for interior repairs to the
home. Included with the documents presented for the building permit were drawings for additional work on the exterior
of the house. Superintendent Cross did not address these drawings since they had no bearing on the interior work
proposed. A non-compliant roofing structure was built which projects into the village right-of-way. The structure is on
the homeowner’s property and in the right-of-way. The ZBA’s authority relates only to private property and has
therefore asked the Board of Trustees to rule first on the right-of-way request. Attorney Marcus said that there is no
strict defined order in a situation such as this. After additional discussion including concerns over future sidewalk
placement, a determination that it is more appropriate for the ZBA to address the question first is reached.
6. Report of the Trustees:
Trustee Biloski, leading a renewed effort to draft an Emergency Plan for the village reported on progress made by the
Department Heads meeting with Mayor Supron and herself. The goal is to prepare a consolidated, concise plan based on the City
of Ithaca plan utilizing a structure similar to an example from Johnson City. Fire Superintendent Tamborelle will revise the
document first, tracking his revisions. Then Police Chief Steinmetz, Superintendent Cross and Clerk & Treasurer Mangione will
apply their changes in turn. The goal for this step is to have a draft version prepared for presentation to the Board by the end of
the year. National Incident Management System (NIMS) training is required by no fewer than 75% of individuals who would be
contributing to an emergency effort. All members of the Board of Trustees should complete at least NIMS series 700 and 100 by
year end.
The Information Technology Committee Chair, Linda Woodard reported no changes to the status from the August meeting.
Clerk & Treasurer Mangione will forward a completed list of sites, numbers of internet users and phone users to Chair Woodard.
This data is to be provided to Verizon and Time Warner Cable for their village needs analysis. There has not been any response
from Finger Lakes Technology Group or Clarity Connect.
7. Report of Chief Steinmetz: (Exhibit FYE2016-059a, b)
Clarification of the dog control ordinance as relates to barking was requested. The Chief explained that a complaint of
extended and repeated periods of barking can result in a citation.
Clarification of the policy on pre-employment background checks is needed. The agency used by Ithaca College charges
$30/hour and estimates a typical expenditure of eight hours. Suggestion of a stepped policy was offered. For instance, a
temporary employee or summer intern would require a simple TRACS system check whereas a police officer would require
a more in-depth review. Any individual with administrative authority to the IT infrastructure must have clearance as
prescribed by the Department of Criminal Justice Services.
Interviews to fill the open part-time police officer position are complete and a recommendation has been made.
Resolution #7695
BE IT RESOLVED THAT: The Board of Trustees of the Village of Cayuga Heights approves an offer of employment as a
part-time police officer to Terry O’Pre pending a successful outcome to all appropriate pre-employment screening.
Motion: Trustee Salton
Second: Trustee Friend
Ayes: Trustees Biloski, Friend, Marshall, Robinson, Salton, and Woodard

8. Report of Superintendent of Public Works Cross: (Exhibit FYE2016-060)
A used sidewalk plow is available for $9,500. It may not be ideal, but given the issues encountered with the current
Bombardier plow at the end of last season it is a viable solution. The used plow has been inspected by public works
mechanics and it is reportedly in sound functional condition. The value is at least equal to the asking price and the dealer
guarantees a trade-in value of that amount if used to purchase a different vehicle next season.
Resolution #7696
BE IT RESOLVED THAT: The Board of Trustees of the Village of Cayuga Heights approves the purchase of a used MT
Trackless sidewalk plow from Cyncon Equipment, Inc. at a cost not to exceed $9,500.

Village of Cayuga Heights
Fire Superintendent Monthly Report for September 2015
September was a busy month with 46 runs. There were 24 calls in the Village of Cayuga Heights, 17 calls in the
Town of Ithaca and 5 mutual aid requests. We had 26 EMS responses and 20 fire calls. For as busy as the month
was, it was filled with routine calls. We did see a jump in our fire alarm activations when the students returned.
Training is back in full swing now our student members are back in town. September saw us out with the trucks
making supply and moving charged hand lines to get everybody re-acclimated with the equipment. Our members
jumped right in and trained hard. We are gearing up for a busy October with the three recruit classes on the last three
Saturdays of the month. This is an extremely busy time of the year for the senior members of the department. We
need to get everything in place for the recruits.
Lieutenants Berger and Gladstone put together a great recruiting drive through August and early September. We had
42 people attend the recruit dinner on September 24th. At the dinner we made it very clear what we expect from our
members in terms of training and membership requirements. After the dinner we received 25 applications for
membership. We formed an interview panel and over the course of two nights we interviewed all 25 applicants. We
had decided before the interviews to take a recruit class between 15 and 20 because of the amount of equipment we
have to issue at this time. After the interviews we offered spots in the fall class to 16 of the interviewees. We did
have several strong prospects in those not chosen but the people we did not take either lived too far from the station
or were unsure of their time commitment to the Ithaca area. We did let those not chosen for this class that we will be
running a spring class and if their long term plans change that they should reapply. The 16 that we accepted will start
training on October 17th. We have a great group with several EMT’s and at least one person with prior firefighting
experience. They will all need to complete the three recruit classes as well as an additional evening of CPR training.
After the classes are complete they will have 90 days to complete their probationary checklists. With the new
recruits we stand at sixty members of the department.
Several of our members participated in the Tunnel to the Towers memorial run again this year. The run is from Red
Hook in Brooklyn through the Brooklyn Battery Tunnel to the World Trade Center. This run is to memorialize the
run of Stephen Siller an FDNY firefighter last seen running through the tunnel with his gear heading for Ground Zero
on September 11th. The Cayuga Heights Fire Department has participated in this run every year since it started in
2003. This year my 4 year old son Jacob made the run with us.
We were able to resolve the problem with the hydraulic generator on E202. We found that the generator was leaking
hydraulic fluid. It was taken to the service facility in Elmira for evaluation and it was found to be leaking from a heat
exchanger. Initial contact with the manufacturer led us to believe that the two year warranty had run out and that we
would have to cover the cost of repair at close to $4,000. After several conversations with the manufacturer we
determined that they had a five year warranty on the specific part. They wanted us to take the truck from Elmira to
Syracuse to simply have the part installed. I argued that this did not make sense and they finally decided to cover the
cost of the repair and allow Tyler Fire to complete the repair. We seem to be in good shape with our equipment at
this time.
While the fall is a busy time for us we love the challenge of moving our new members through the training process.
It is very satisfying to see everybody geared up in the afternoon of the first day of training.
Sincerely,
George Tamborelle
Fire Chief/Fire Superintendent

PROPOSED LOCAL LAW D OF THE YEAR 2015
A LOCAL LAW TO ESTABLISH
SOLAR ENERGY COLLECTOR REQUIREMENTS
Be it enacted by the Board of Trustees of the Village of Cayuga Heights as follows:
Section 1 Legislative Intent: It is the intent of this local law to facilitate the use of solar energy
collectors to encourage renewable energy, but also recognizes that regulation of the construction,
placement, and operation of solar collectors are matters of public importance involving issues of safety,
neighborhood character, and possible depreciated property values by reason of improperly installed, placed,
maintained, or operated collectors.
Section 2 Authority: This local law is adopted pursuant to …
Section 3 Generally Applicable Standards: All solar energy collectors shall be subject to the
following requirements:
1. Solar energy collectors shall be permitted only to provide power for use by owners, lessees, tenants,
residents, or other occupants of the premises on which they are erected, but nothing contained in this
provision shall be construed to prohibit the sale of excess power through “net metering” or “net billing”
or a similar program in accordance with New York Public Service Law 66-J or similar state or federal
statute;
2. Solar collectors shall be designed, located, and tilted to prevent reflective glare toward inhabited
buildings on adjacent properties and toward vehicles on adjacent roads, and shall not be unnecessarily,
bright, shiny, garish, or reflective;
3. Solar energy collectors shall be located in areas and ways which most mitigate their visibility from
surrounding properties;
4. Solar energy collectors shall be considered structures for the purpose of compliance with Village laws
and ordinances, shall require a building permit and certificate of occupancy issued by the Village’s
Code Enforcement Officer, and shall comply in their design, construction, and operation with all other
Village laws and ordinances, unless specifically excluded by this section.
Rooftop mounted solar collectors are permitted in all zoning districts in the Village. Building permits
shall be required for installation of rooftop mounted solar collectors, subject to the following
requirements:
1. The area covered by collectors shall not exceed eighty (80) percent of the entire roof area;
2. There shall be a five (5) foot minimum set back from all roof edges;
3. On a pitched roof, collectors shall be mounted no more than twelve (12) inches above the roofing
surface to which they are affixed, and shall not extend beyond the highest point of the roof;
4. On a flat roof, collectors shall be installed in a manner and to a height that minimizes their visibility
from surrounding properties and roads, but still maintains their functional integrity and viability;
5. Where possible, shall be color-coordinated to harmonize with roof materials and other predominant
colors of the structure.
Ground-mounted solar collectors are permitted as an accessory use in all zoning districts of the Village,
subject to the following requirements:
1. Collectors shall be located in side or rear yards;
2. Collector locations meet all applicable setback requirements of the zone in which they are located;
3. The height of any collector and any mount shall not exceed 15 feet from ground elevation at any point
when oriented at maximum tilt;
4. The total surface area of all such collectors on any one lot shall not exceed 500 square feet;
5. The area beneath any collector shall be included in the calculation of lot area coverage;
6. The area beneath any collector shall be considered impervious surface and subject to the Village’s
Local Law for Stormwater Management;
7. Any collector may not be sited within a riparian streamside buffer or any buffer required for some other
conservation purpose;
8. A building permit is required prior to any collector and mount installation;
9. Such installations should employ where practicable vegetative landscape screening and, if necessary,
other screening methods which harmonize with the character of the property and surrounding
neighborhood to minimize collector and mount visibility from adjacent properties and roads;

Re: Report of the Police Department for September, 2015
In the month of September the police department received 382 calls for service. In addition to these calls 199
uniform traffic tickets were issued and 2 parking violations were cited. A breakdown of the calls for service is as
follows:
7 Misdemeanor complaints were received, 3 for Criminal Mischief, 1 for Larceny, 2 for Fraud, and 1 for drugs. In all
3 of the Criminal Mischief complaints, residents reported that their mailboxes had been damaged. The residents
stated that they saw male subjects in the area. 3 subjects have been identified however the lead was unfounded. No
further reports of damaged mailboxes have been received. In the Larceny complaint, a resident stated that a diamond
ring was missing from their home at a residential facility. The investigation of this case is ongoing. Of the 2 fraud
complaints, 1 involved a local business reporting that a counterfeit $20 bill had been used as payment. The Secret
Service has been notified and this incident remains under investigation. In the second fraud complaint, the resident
stated that a credit card had been established by an unknown person in their name. A report was needed for the banks
in order for accounts to be frozen. The drug complaint came in as the possible sale of drugs occurring outside a local
business. Suspects have been identified and the investigation is ongoing.
8 Vehicle and Traffic stops led to 12 misdemeanor charges. 1-Criminal Possession of a Controlled Substance 7th, 1-
Driving While Intoxicated 1st, 1-DWAI-Alcohol and Drugs Combined, 2- Aggravated Unlicensed Operation of a
Vehicle 2nd, 4-Aggravated Unlicensed Operation of a Motor Vehicle 3rd, 2-Suspended Registration, 1-Circumvent
Interlock,
8 Local Law violations were reported, 3 for Dog Control, 4 for Noise, and 1 for Open Burning. 2 of the Dog Control
complaints consisted of a resident stating that a neighbor’s dog had been on their property. The officer made contact
with the dog owner was issued a citation for Loose Dog for each incident. The 4 noise complaints included 1 report
of a loud garbage truck collecting trash outside of the allotted noise ordinance hours. Upon officer’s arrival the truck
was no longer in the area, however after investigation, the company was contacted and notified of the Village’s
ordinance and advised that a citation would be issued upon further incident. The second noise complaint came in as a
loud gathering. Upon officer’s arrival it was not clear where the noise had been coming from and was unfounded.
Another noise complaint came in as loud music being played in an apartment house. Upon officer’s arrival the tenant
had turned the music down and no further issue had arisen. The last reported incident was for noise and music from a
gathering. The officer on duty made contact with the resident and was advised of the Village’s ordinance and told to
keep the music and noise level turned down. The report for open burning was reported by a resident stating that the
smoke from the neighbor’s campfire was coming into their home creating health complications. The officer on duty
contacted the neighbor and informed them of the situation; however the neighbor was conducting the fire within the
requirements of the Village’s local law.
There were 4 Motor vehicle accidents investigated, none of which involved deer.
There was one incident reported involving deer. A complaint was received from a passerby stating that an injured
deer was on the side of route 13. The deer was gone upon officer’s arrival.
In summary, 9 persons were arrested and the following 15 charges were filed: 1-Criminal Possession of a Controlled

Report of Superintendent Brent Cross
Zoning projects have taken a lot of my attention over the last couple of weeks. I do not remember a time when
we have had as many “hot” zoning projects going on at the same time. Many of the project involve extra
attention due to owner/neighborhood concerns. The following is a list of current/recent zoning actions:
-side yard variance for 112 midway road
-reduced frontage variance for 105 berkshire road
-subdivision of lot for 105 berkshire road
-sorority house at 520 wyckoff road
-sobriety house at 216 dearborn place
-co-op housing at 208 dearborn place
-bakery/café at corners community center
-catering/café at corners community center
-proposed large commercial building at corners community center which will need variance(s) and site plan
review
There is also a significant project in the village of lansing that will require a special sewer permit from the
VCHWWTP, to accept pre-treated effluent from a “micro-chip” manufacturing process. Although the
discharge flow will be relatively small (less than 1000 gpd), the type of manufacturing process is identified by
the US Environmental Protection Agency as producing a potential hazardous waste. Therefore, M/A-COM
Technology (Macom) will be required to design/install an industrial pre-treatment plant at their new facility.
Unfortunately, as the operator of the Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTW), the Village WWTP is
obligated to review/approve/monitor the entire operation before/during/after completion. One of the tasks is
to review the chemical nature of their treated waste and evaluate it for conformance with our local sewer use
ordinance as well as it’s compatibility with the biological processes at the WWTP. The Village has only been
through this process once previously when Borg Warner became regulated in the late 1980’s. Even then, their
waste discharge is only metallic in nature and not considered hazardous by EPA definitions, which means the
Borg-Warner pre-treatment plant is only regulated by a NYSDEC permit, not a USEPA permit. This will be a
substantial amount of work for the Village to technically comply with the EPA requirements, as well as setting
up a cost sharing agreement with Macom to reimburse the village for future lab testing expenses. I have
contacted the engineers at GHD (formerly Stearns and Wheler) who were actually involved in the Village’s
permitting process for Borg-Warner in the 1980’s. They have prepared a proposal with a scope of services to
provide 30 hours of time to assist the village in reviewing the EPA regulations, design of the proposed system,
and permit administration. They will only bill us for the hours spent, not to exceed $3,700.
At the DPW, the guys have completed the paving work on Overlook and Kline Roads. Although there have
been some various grumbles about how the new pavement effects peoples driveways, most comments have
been very positive.
The DPW has also nearly completed the installation of the new culvert pipe under Randolph Road. The
adjacent owner has paid for new piping to continue across her property. She and the neighbors seem to be
pleased with the work so far. We will move onto the installation of the new pipe under Warwick Place. As the
Mayor previously communicated, the owner of 113 Warwick has opted not to participate in improving the
existing pipe her property, and I have not finalized the plans with the owners of 116 Warwick, but they have
verbally indicated an interest in replacing the pipe on their property.
Other than the open list of smaller/individual property owner projects, the only road work left to complete this
season will be the patching on N. Triphammer Road. We had previously committed to finishing this task
during the month of October. I expect we will meet this timeline.
As of 10/15/15, the DPW crew will begin the annual leaf collection program. This will take 3 men (2 full-time
and 1 seasonal) dedicated to the leaf truck for 4 days a week until 12/15/15. The Clerk’s Office has inquired
about the route/schedule. I have confirmed that the intended plan is as follows: the crew will pick up leaves on
Monday and Tuesday in the part of the village that is on Tuesday’s garbage route. On Wednesday and
Thursday, they will move to the part of the village that is on the Thursday garbage route. If they did not
complete the “loop” on Tuesday or Thursday route, they may go back on Friday (if not a bulky/brush day) to
catch up. They will repeat this rotation through the entire season.
A new issue has come up with the recent/late notification from Cornell Plantations that they no longer wish to
have us unload leaves at their location. This leaves (no pun intended) us with what to do with the large volume
of leaves that will be collected over the course of the season. We will likely begin the season by offloading the
leaves at the vacant lot (owned by the Village) next to the WWTP. We previously managed a composting
operation at that location, but discontinued several years ago when Cornell made the Plantation option
available. It is not clear how much leaves we will be able to store there before we may need to start trucking to
an alternate location, or find another user that may be willing to take some of the leaves off the site for us. At
the end of the season, we will again need to manage the leaf piles as compost. This takes additional manpower
and a need to find a willing consumer of the compost.
As a follow-up to this morning’s meetings, I am attaching a copy of the quotation provided by CF Evans
Roofing for maintenance/repair work. Since the original quote was made, they have already completed the
repair of a leak over the police office, at a significant savings from the anticipated level of effort. Therefore, we
are left to address the area referred to as the “washtub” on page 2. As you can see, they are proposing to install
an EPDM overlay in the existing valley configuration. Since this is their recommendation, I expect them to be
more likely to warranty the work than if we dictate the details of the solution.
I have also made a phone call to Kent Duane to get a commitment to completing this work before the end of
the “season”. He will inquire with their scheduling manager and get back to me before Monday night.
We have been informed by Dickson Farms that they are no longer taking sludge for their land application
permit. Therefore, they are willing to continue to haul our sludge, but will be taking it to the land fill (Seneca
meadows?). Their fee will increase from $45/ton to $68.70/ton plus other fuel/environmental surcharges. We
will be actively seeking alternative disposal options. One possibility is to “offer” our liquid sludge to the Ithaca
Area WWTP for consumption in their new co-generation system. Since the IAWWTP system uses liquid
sludge instead of “dry cake” sludge, the evaluation of the trucking cost is different because of gallons vs. dry
tons. GHD Engineers, who may be helping us on the Macom issue, was the engineer on the IAWWTP co-
generation project, so they already have the know to help us make an apples vs oranges evaluation. They have
offered to do this analysis for an estimate 20 hours task. They would bill for this work by the hour with a cost
not to exceed $2,467.
I also ask GHD how much it would cost to have them prepare a professional estimate of the “insured” value
of the WWTP. They have estimated a cost of 10 hours not to exceed $1,233.

ZONING OFFICER’S REPORT
DATE: October 14, 2015
TO: BOARD OF TRUSTEES
FROM: Brent Cross, Zoning Officer
RE: Hope’s Events and Catering, 200 Pleasant Grove Road
I have received a permit application to convert the former Sarah’s Patisserie space
into a catering/café. Permits for such food service business are subject to Zoning
Section 4.2.c. “…restaurant or dairy bar for the serving of food and beverages, but
only on “special approval” of the Board of Trustees…shall determine, after public
hearing…such use is in the general welfare of the Village…” (I have attached a
copy of a list used by the Planning Board to evaluate such welfare)
The applicant is proposing to operate a cake bakery and café with details of
operation as described in the attached business plan summary. Some of the details
that are typically identified in the final permit approval include such issues as: menu,
seating (indoor/outdoor), hours of operation, etc. Please note that signage will be
regulated by Zoning Section 17. Signs: each business shall be allowed to have a 10
sf sign area.
Prior to final approval by the Trustees, the following actions will need to be taken
after an initial presentation by the applicant:
-declaration of lead for SEQR
-determination of SEQR Type and level of assessment
-schedule a public hearing
Prior to the public meeting, the applicant will provide any additional information, as
well as a SEQR Environmental Assessment Form (if determined necessary), and
10 days prior to the meeting I will prepare a public notice that will be sent to the
newspaper and to all property owners within 200’ of the project/property.

THE PROJECT
Hope Rich’s new venture, Hope’s
Events & Catering, featuring catering,
culinary arts classes and HMRs
(freshly-prepared entrees delivered to
the home) - all with a personalized
level of service . After honoring her 4-
year non-compete agreement and from
her new location at the Community
Corners, Hope is reentering the market
with the same winning formula that
made “Hope’s Way” a 16 year success.
PROVEN TRACK RECORD
During the final eight years of Hope’s
Way, the catering sales alone averaged
@$1 million.
FUTURE SUCCESS
By the 2nd quarter of 2016, sales
revenues will again be at this pace
while profitability and cash flow will
be optimized as there will be little or
no indirect, fixed, labor burden to be
borne.
FINANCING COMPLETE
The project has financing is fully
funded and has been completed
without debt.
USE OF PROCEEDS
The proceeds will be used to purchase
and install kitchen equipment, make
leasehold improvements at the new
location, and cover initial start-up costs
and early-stage working capital needs.
START-UP DATE
A late Q4-2015/early Q1-2016 opening
is planned, well in advance of the busy
June graduation and alumni events and
the start of summer weddings. There
are already events on the books for this
period.
EXECUTIVE
SUMMARY
THE BUSINESS & MARKET
Hope’s Events & Catering will provide
the highest quality off-premises
catering services, home meal
replacements and culinary arts classes
for Ithaca and its surrounding
communities. The catering will be
divided into four key segments -
Cornell, Corporate, Weddings and
Private Events.
The Culinary arts classes will be for all
ages - kids, college aged students,
adults and seniors. Classes will be
taught by Hope, as well as guest chefs.
Based on the past success of Hope’s
Way, known as the best caterer in
Ithaca, this new enterprise will be
extremely successful.
THE CUSTOMERS’ WANTS
The Ithaca community longs for the
return of the highest quality, well
planned and organized, most efficient
and well executed culinary solutions
for catered events and HMRs.
HOPE’S SOLUTION
Hope’s Events and Catering will offer
its outstanding menu choices for
catered events and home meal
replacements that Hope’s Way was
famous for. Additionally, there is no
one in Ithaca that knows more about all
the facets of the business than Hope
Rich.
BUSINESS MODEL
The additional products and services
offered here (Culinary Art Classes and
HMR) generate additional revenues
with no incremental investment needed
and will assist in marketing the
catering services offered.
One of the keys to the success of this
business will be that work is only done
when products/services are requested
and paid for. (i.e. “The Guaranteed
Sale”). This is much
different than a Hope’s Way-like retail
model where there is no guarantee
what volume of sales will be generated
each day. The new model also avoids
the costs associated with highly
perishable products on hand in the face
of possible low sales volumes at
certain times of the year, or due to
weather and other unknowns.
LOCATION
The location chosen in Community
Corners is highly visible and very easy
to access. Parking is extremely
convenient and customers can park in
front of our storefront. Community
Corners hosts a variety of small
businesses that will complement and
enhance our products/services. The
location is very close to Cornell which
is our largest catering segment for easy
access when delivering.
OPERATIONS (more on HMR)
Seasoned and mature staffing will be
used only at the time an event is
prepared and produced to optimize
control of labor costs. In terms of
HMRs, freshly prepared entrees will be
delivered twice a week. (Mondays and
Thursdays). Menus will be available on
line and clients can order there or call
in orders, depending on the
specifics/size of orders. There are
three main market segments that will
be accessing the HMR meals. The first
is “DINKS”, dual income no kids.
These couples are driven, hardworking
and may not have time for
shopping/cooking. What they do want
is good, healthy food, prepared well
that can be delivered. Another market
segment is “Empty Nesters”. These
couples have recently sent their last
child off to college and are cooking for
only one or two at home. Again, they
want quality products, convenient to
access. The last HMR
OPERATIONS cont’d
market segment is retirees. This age
group (65 – 85) miss home cooked
meals, but find it hard cooking for only
two. They enjoy the fact they do not
have to shop, prep and clean up meals,
but can still have a fantastic meal at the
end of the day!
COMPETITION
Hope is very familiar with the
competition in Ithaca and attained a
reputation in the community as the best
caterer in Ithaca with her
Business, “Hope’s Way”. As for the
caterers that have been here for over 20
years, Ithaca Bakery, The Heights,
Cornell Catering, to new comers such
as Serendipity, H & J
Hospitality, Dinosaur BBQ and Agava,
they are all “Off Premise Caters”.
There are also services offered by
Wegmans and Panera
Bread for pick-up or simple
deliveries/drop off services. There has
already been a significant positive
reaction to the possibility of this start
up and there is no doubt of regaining
the best client base and strong market
share.
IMPORTANT FACTS
Seating - for the new operation will consist of 12 seats inside and 16 seats outside.
Business Hours - will be from 7:00 AM to 2:00PM.
