The Board of Public Works meets on the second, third and fourth Wednesdays of the month at 4:45 p.m. All meetings are voting meetings, which opens with a public comment period. Meeting agendas are created from prior public input, Department operating and planning issues, and requests made to the Superintendent. The Board reserves the right to limit verbal comments to three minutes and to request written comments on lengthy or complex issues. This information may then be used to create committee agendas, with the speaker or author invited to attend. Page 2 7.1 BPW Review of Charter — Discussion Continued, start at C -62 The Board has missed the chance to discuss the Charter provisions for several weeks. I have made a 60 minute allowance for it here. So far the only outside notes I have are Dan Hoffman's preliminary notes dated August 10, 2010. Julie Holcomb's notes on the history of the Board of Public Works, which is undated but was handed out August 30, 2010, and Cynthia Brock's paper on the Board's history and her understanding of the Board's purpose are related materials which are also available for any subsequent conversation following a review and discussion of the Charter's provisions related to the Board of Public Works. 8.1A Request for Easement for 611 West Buffalo Street —Resolution I have requested a figure be calculated for the use of city property using the old formulas for annual payments based on land value and related property taxes. I will provide it as soon as it is available. 9.4A. Newman Golf Course — Discussion The Golf Course has come up as a topic of discussion because of the possible retirement of the Golf Pro. Kathy Gehring has developed a data file to provide an overview of state and municipal courses. I would like to start a discussion that will produce a list of questions and a list of comparable courses that we might want to approach for further information. This is an interesting glimpse at golf courses across the state. 9.5A Appeal of Water Bill for 622 Cascadilla Street — Discussion 9.513 Appeal of Water Bill for 104 -114 North Cayuga Street — Discussion I have requested a review and recommendation from Water and Sewer for these two accounts. My first review of 622 Cascadilla is that the new meter, once calibrated (changes were made in the register, not the meter itself), are reading noticeably higher but seems to follow an increasing use pattern that starts back in 2003. If we have reason to believe that a meter is inaccurate, we can pull it out and test it. If the property owner directs us to test the meter, we do it with the understanding that they will be billed for the service if the meter checks out correctly. I am not sure I understand the protest for 104 -114 North Cayuga. The consumption pattern is very erratic, but does not show an increase that I would attribute to the meter. I believe Erik has spoken to the Kielmanns so he should be better informed. W.J. Gray, P.E.

His meter was changed in 2008. He is asking the Board to review the changes to his account. Late in 2009, it was determined there was a gear ratio error dating from the meter change in October, 2008, and adjustments were calculated, based on determined mathematical formulas. Mr. Chutintaranond contends that correction created bills much higher than his previous averages. Copies of the adjustment calculations, as well as a summary, are attached here. An Equal Opportunity Employer with a commitment to workforce diversification." `3 Recap of consumption and adjustments, 622 Cascadilla Street The gear ratio setting on the meter for 622 Cascadilla Street was incorrect, and the account was underbilled. On Octboer 8, 2009, Barbara Frycek calculated an adjustment to the account that attempted to properly translate the meter reading into consumption for bills dating from December 1 to August 20th, based on an assumption of a minimum bill for a 2" meter: Billed Actual Consumption Consumption 12/1/2008 127 223 2/20/2009 58 354 5/20/2009 46 281 8/2012009 35 213 Minimum Difference Consumption Dollars Billed Dollars Due Due for 2" meter 112 $ 843.28 $ 1,480.72 $ 637.44 112 $ 797.44 $ 2,520.48 $ 1,723.04 112 $ 797.44 $ 2,000.72 $ 1,203.28 112 $ 797.44 $ 1,516.56 $ 719.12 Total planned adjustment $ 4,282.88 Subsequently, it was deternined that Mr. Chutintaranond was being billed for actual consumption, not for a 2" minimum. On November 20, 2009, the Chamberlain's office made the adjustment based on the corrected figures. On December 1, 2009, Barb Frycek sent the Chamberlain a new calculation.

As shown on the attached report of readings and consumptions, Mr. Chutintaranond had been billed for 1900 cubic feet, 5800 cubic feet, 4600 cubic feet, and 3500 cubic feet starting with the reading on November 14, 2008. There was an error in the calibration of the meter at the time of the replacement of the head, and he has since been billed for 11500 cubic feet, 35400 cubic feet, 28100 cubic feet and 21300 cubic feet for the same billing periods. These bills reflect an increase in consumption of almost 75% over the same period the previous year. I have asked Mr. Chutintaranond to make the payments on the ongoing quarterly bills, and have agreed to waive the penalty on the adjustment until the Board hears his appeal/ "An Equal Opportunity Employer with a commitment to workforce diversification." City of Ithaca 510 First Street Department of Public Works November 4, 2009 Dear Ms. Parsons: We are writing because we have received a memorandum regarding the new meter reading for our business located at 622 Cascadilla Street (Acct# 3712323800). The bill states that we should pay $4282.88 in adjustment to programming errors in the meter register dated back to 2008. This adjustment is excessive in light of the fact that it represents a much higher monthly average of our past eight years of business operation. We have spoken with Ms. Barbara Frycek, senior Meter Technician. She was in agreement with my concerns and said that she would request recalculations and that she would get back to me. Unfortunately, I still have not heard form her. I would like to discuss this matter further, and I would welcome the opportunity to speak with you.

This happened after switching our meters for our building. A letter of outstanding water and sewer owed on the above property was sent to us on September 25, 2009. The letter was from Barbara Frycek, Senior Meter Technician. The amount she said was owed was $5964.32. We have a water tower on the building, so the sewage should not have changed at all on the building, because either most of the water evaporates or goes down a storm drain. Also, my husband had a meeting with Barbara to discuss this. She said she would work on trying to fix the problem and adjust the amount actually owed. My husband met with her in October of last year, and then did several follow up phone calls to her. We have paid a total of $5000.00 to the city for water and sewer, in addition to what we have already paid for that time period. This is way over what we normally pay. If you look at our past history, and even if we had a high usage for the summer, we still shouldn't owe this much money to the city. So needless to say we are frustrated that neither the water department or the department of public works has addressed this situation. So we're asking for your help, to help resolve this problem. Please send all correspondence to:The Nines, 311 College Ave., Ithaca, NY 14850. The phone number is:272 -5890. Our account number is :4715598302. Thank you for any help you can give us regarding this matter.

Cayuga St. The adjustment says we used 110,900 cubic feet of water. I don't think this is correct. Since 2007 the most water we used for any year period was 65,100. We have checked throughout the building and we have not found any leaks. I think the wrong multiplier was used when refiguring my bill. Also, this building has a cooling tower, so a large amount of water that we use never winds up in the sewer, it evaporates. Is there some amount I could be credited for not using the sewer portion of the bill? Enclosed are copies of old water bills and the memorandum from the water department.
