Changes to Agenda

 The following items were added to the agenda:

- Resolution - Award of Bid - Vending Service Five-Year Contract

Report from the Chair

 Mr. Koplinka-Loehr said he did not have a report. However, he shared an article concerning the retirement incentive in Comptroller McCall's Retirement System Update.

Report from the County Administrator

 Mr. Whicher updated the Committee on the establishment of a Capital Projects Cross-Functional Team (CPCT) to examine current structures, procedures, and roles and make recommendations, and provided copies of the draft proposal.  He is proposing certain departments be the main stakeholders and members of the group in reviewing all capital projects rather than having one person in charge.  He hopes this will provide a broader view of the projects prior to Board consideration.  Ms. Kiefer said this reminded her of the cross-functional contracts team under PFQ a few years ago.

 Ms. Kiefer asked if there was a sunset date after the deliverables.  Mr. Whicher stated it would be included in the charge but there may be an ongoing team.  He said he hopes to have this set up before the end of the year.  Mr. Booth commented that if this works he would like to have for the Board a mechanism for prioritizing capital projects.  Mr. Whicher stated that he would like any capital project being contemplated in the five-year capital program translated into a PARs (Project Approval Request) form.

Personnel Department

 Resolution - Early Retirement (Bob Hillick)
 It was MOVED by Mr. Booth, seconded by Mr. Totman, to submit the following resolution to the Budget and Capital Committee for approval.  Ms. Fitzpatrick briefly explained the resolution and stated the plan is to use existing staff resources to show the savings and as well hopefully "maximize the program" in 2003 and 2004.  Mr. Hillick will continue working part-time to assist in setting up the new program in the Old Library.  Mr. Whicher spoke about the move of the records program from Biggs A to the Old Library which is being handled in-house using crews (inmates) from the Sheriff's office with a Correction Officer.  He said they are doing a great job.

 Ms. Kiefer asked if more detail specifying how the required savings are achieved could be included with the resolution.  Mr. Whicher said a spreadsheet could be provided.

RESOLUTION NO.        - APPROVAL OF SAVINGS PLANS PURSUANT TO THE 2002 EARLY RETIREMENT INCENTIVE PROGRAM AND FISCAL TARGET REDUCTION – PERSONNEL

 WHEREAS, the Tompkins County Board of Representatives authorized participation in the 2002 Early Retirement Incentive Program, and
 WHEREAS, Robert Hillick, Records Manager in the Personnel Department, is eligible and has voluntarily chosen to retire during the open period, and
 WHEREAS, the Personnel Department has submitted a savings plan as required by the New York State Retirement System and such plan has been reviewed and recommended by the County Administrator, and
WHEREAS, the Personnel Department intends to fill the position half-time for 2003 and 2004 and provide the necessary support services for the Records Management Program through the utilization of existing staff, now therefore be it
 RESOLVED, on recommendation of the Government Operations and Budget and Capital Committees, That Robert Hillick be authorized to retire under the terms of the 2002 Early Retirement Incentive Program,
 RESOLVED, further, That the fiscal target for this department be permanently reduced by twenty percent ($1,540) of the General Fund share of the State minimum savings (Base Salary minus the amount due the New York State Retirement System).
SEQR ACTION:  TYPE II-20

 Civil Services Procedures
 Mr. Koplinka-Loehr referred Committee members to the memorandum dated July 23rd concerning civil service procedures and the memorandum dated August 6th regarding costs relating to layoffs.

 Ms. Fitzpatrick explained some of her concerns with the possibility of layoffs.  There are very few opportunities available for new employees and existing employees on the vacancy list.  If a person's job is in jeopardy there is very little room for movement.  Also as far as the affirmative action standpoint, there is a potential negative impact.

 She feels the budget meetings the County Administrator and Chairman of the Board are conducting are going well and employees are participating.  Employees are calling the Personnel Department routinely asking about layoff and civil service procedures.  She is working with Department Heads on developing questions and answers about several different strategies being discussed such as an employee taking a voluntary leave of absence for two months as a way to save money and ensure the program is operational.

 Ms. Fitzpatrick said the Personnel Department, Finance Department, and Administration are working in concert to make sure there is enough information available to employees.  She commented that there have been some resignations from employees having skilled marketable positions.  Mr. Whicher also commented that it is making it difficult for departments to recruit.

 Mr. Whicher briefly reported on the 4-5 budget meetings held so far with employees and said attendance has been low in his opinion.  However, he feels the meetings have been very helpful and useful.

 Discussion followed concerning the questions being raised by employees about layoffs.  Ms. Fitzpatrick said it is difficult to respond to questions such as when layoffs will take effect.  There seems to be fewer transfers, which in some cases results in longer training programs and certain programs being impacted by overtime expenses such as in law enforcement.  Mr. Whicher spoke about processes and suggested that a system be put in place to address layoffs if necessary and allowing for transition.  He said it is up to the Board to decide whether terminations are, e.g., as of January 1 or June 30.   He stated his budget recommendation will likely have a fairly high tax rate increase attached to it.  He said in order to go further, he will be eliminating entire programs and/or services and not cutting back every program dollar by dollar.

 Mr. Whicher suggested one way to move forward is the Committee could request Administration, Personnel, and Finance to develop a plan that presents options and how they can be structured if layoffs are necessary.  Ms. Fitzpatrick commented that in terms of looking ahead, the early retirement incentive needs to be factored in.  Once employees have made their decision about early retirement, it will allow the layoff roster to be adjusted. She feels that once the budget is adopted there will be alternative plans by Department Heads.  In addition, Mr. Whicher stated that in different situations, packages are being offered to certain employees who are coming forward with an interest in retiring in the near future such as in the Records Management program.

 Mr. Whicher reported that in the budget meetings with employees, the message he and Chair Joseph are attempting to convey is the Board wants to preserve programs and jobs as much as possible.  Discussion followed concerning a motion or resolution stating it is not the intent to act on the budget in November and then lay employees off in January that there would be a transitioning period.  Mr. Koplinka-Loehr agreed to report at the Board meeting that it is the consensus of the Committee that if there are layoffs it be done through some sort of transitioning planning to the maximum extent possible.

 Resolution - Administrative Manual Policy 04-05
 Ms. Fitzpatrick briefly explained the proposed policy.  She said in the past when an employee increased or decreased their hours, the fringe was adjusted accordingly.  This policy states that whatever an employee earned at the time it was earned based on the workweek no retroactive adjustments will be made.  If the workweek changes, the fringes will be earned based on that employee's workweek.

 It was MOVED by Mr. Totman, seconded by Mr. Todd, to submit the following resolution to the full Board for approval.  It was suggested and the Committee agreed that the following language be added to the policy for clarification:

 An employee earns accrued fringe time based on the scheduled hours of work for their position (full-time equals 35 or 40 hours).  An employee is credited with entitlement fringe time based on the scheduled hours of the position actual hours worked up to a maximum of the scheduled workweek of the position.

 Discussion ensued on past practice and the Committee was surprised to learn that in the past accrual was not necessarily based on actual hours but on position-description hours.  There is no quick way to rectify past over and under payments.

 It was MOVED by Mr. Totman, and unanimously adopted by voice vote, to call the question on the above motion.

 A voice vote resulted as follows on the following resolution:  Ayes - 5, Noes - 0.  RESOLUTION CARRIED.

RESOLUTION NO.        - CREATION OF ADMINISTRATIVE MANUAL POLICY 04-05 – ADJUSTMENT OF FRINGE ACCRUALS

 WHEREAS, there is a need to establish a procedure for adjusting fringe benefit balances of employees whose standard workweek is changed, now therefore be it
 RESOLVED, on recommendation of the Government Operations Committee, That Policy 04-05 – Adjustment of Fringe Accruals, be added to the Administrative Policy Manual.
SEQR ACTION:  TYPE II-20

Effective:
Most Recent Revision: None
Objective: To establish a procedure for adjusting fringe benefit balances of
  employees whose standard workweek is changed.
Reference: Personnel Department
Policy of the Board of Representatives:

There are two categories of fringe benefits:

1) Earned – Vacation, compensatory, discretionary (management), sick leave (Blue
Collar), and personal time.

2) Entitlement -- Bereavement, holidays, and disability.

An employee earns accrued fringe time based on the scheduled hours of work for their position (full-time equals 35 or 40 hours).  An employee is credited with entitlement fringe time based on the actual hours worked up to a maximum of the scheduled workweek of the position.

Fringes accrued will remain intact at the rate earned when an employee’s scheduled hours change from 40 to 35, 35 to 30, 35 to 40, etc.  If an employee’s standard workweek is adjusted, future earned accrued fringe time will be at hourly/daily rate based on the scheduled workweek in place at the time of accrual.  Entitlement fringes will be adjusted when an employee’s standard workweek changes to reflect the hourly/daily balance based on a 7 or 8 hour work day.

Example A -- Employee moves from 40 to 35 hours on 7/1/02.
 150.0 hours of vacation – no change
 7.0 hours of compensatory time – no change
 16.0 hours of personal – no change
 8.0 hours of floating holiday – adjusted to 7.0 hours
 920.0 hours of disability – adjusted to 805.0 hours

Example B – Employee moves from 35 to 40 hours on 7/1/02.
 150.0 hours of vacation – no change
 7.0 hours of compensatory time – no change
 16.0 hours of personal – no change
 7.0 hours of floating holiday – adjusted to 8.0 hours

Assessment Department

 Resolution and Local Law

 It was MOVED by Mr. Totman, seconded by Mr. Todd, to submit the following resolution and local law concerning renewal of the Senior Citizen Real Property Tax Exemption to the full Board for approval.  Ms. Coggin said there are approximately 950 people who qualify at this time.  She also commented that this legislation will help with balancing her budget.  A voice vote resulted as follows on the resolution:  Ayes - 5, Noes - 0.  RESOLUTION CARRIED.

RESOLUTION NO.       - AUTHORIZING A PUBLIC HEARING ON PROPOSED  LOCAL LAW NO. i OF 2002 – PROVIDING FOR AUTOMATIC RENEWAL OF THE SENIOR CITIZEN REAL PROPERTY TAX EXEMPTION

 WHEREAS, New York State Law provides that the County may adopt a local law providing for the automatic renewal of the Senior Citizen Real Property Tax Exemption, now therefore be it
 RESOLVED, on recommendation of the Government Operations Committee, That a public hearing be held before the Board of Representatives in Board Chambers of the Tompkins County Courthouse, 320 North Tioga Street, Ithaca, New York, on Tuesday, September 3, 2002, at 5:30 o’clock in the evening thereof concerning Local Law No. i of 2002 – Providing for Automatic Renewal of Senior Citizen Real Property Tax Exemption.  At such time and place all persons interested in the subject matter will be heard concerning the same,
 RESOLVED, further, That the Clerk of the Board is hereby authorized and directed to place proper notice of such public hearing in the official newspaper of the County.
SEQR ACTION:  TYPE II-20

RESOLUTION NO. ADOPTING A LOCAL LAW PROVIDING FOR THE AUTOMATIC RENEWAL OF THE SENIOR CITIZEN REAL TAX EXEMPTION.

 WHEREAS, New York State Law provides that the County may adopt a local law providing for the automatic renewal of the Senior Citizen Real Property Tax Exemption, and
 WHEREAS, it would be a convenience to senior citizens and the County Assessment Department to adopt such automatic renewal provisions, now therefore be it
 RESOLVED, that Local Law No.   of the year 2002 providing for the automatic renewal of the Senior Citizen Real Property Tax Exemption is hereby adopted.
SEQR ACTION:  TYPE II-20

Local Law No.     of the year 2002

Section 1. This local law provides for automatic renewal of the senior citizen real property tax exemption.
Section 2. A new Section 150-3.2 shall be added to the Tompkins County Code which shall read as follows:
 Any person who has been granted exemption pursuant to this Article on five (5) consecutive completed assessment rolls, including any years when the exemption was granted to a property owned by a husband and/or wife while both resided in such property, shall not be subject to the application requirements set forth in this article.  Such exemption shall be automatically granted on each subsequent assessment roll, provided, however, that when tax payment is made by such person a sworn affidavit must be included with such payment which shall state that such person continues to be eligible for such exemption.  Such affidavit shall be on a form prescribed by the State Board.
Section 3. This law shall take effect upon filing with the Secretary of State.

 Annual Reassessment Review
 Ms. Coggin stated the market is changing very dramatically in Tompkins County and said that on August 18th the annual reassessment fieldwork will begin with expectation of being done by the second week of December.  As the tax rate increases and the assessments change the number of small grievances will likely increase as taxpayers become more and more aware of the process of grieving their assessment.  Approximately 20,000 parcels will have fieldwork done.

 Mr. Todd said he would like to have a figure as to how the 3.84 percent increase in assessment was distributed through the various municipalities.  Ms. Coggin said she would provide the information.

County-Owned Land - Caroline Pinnacles

 Mr. Whicher reviewed the purchase offer from Cornell University concerning the purchase of the Caroline Pinnacles property.  Cornell is prepared to pay $5,000 for the property as is and prepared to take care of the title and determining how much land is there.  Ms. Kiefer questioned the 2000 date in the first line of the agreement and the expiration date and asked if it was the current copy.  Mr. Whicher feels that Cornell used an old document and just updated it and failed to change the dates.  He said that when he spoke to the Cornell representative, he indicated they would honor the agreement as presented to the Committee.

 It was MOVED by Mr. Totman, seconded by Mr. Booth, to accept the agreement as presented by Cornell.

 Mr. Whicher stated that Cornell said they will protect this property as part of the plantations and will include language in the offer.  Mr. Booth suggested and the Committee agreed that the agreement be renegotiated to include language that the property will be managed as part of the Plantations.  Ms. Kiefer stated her desire to have the property permanently protected.

 Ms. Borgella agreed to draft the resolution to accept the agreement as recommended by the Committee including the history of the property.

 A voice vote resulted as follows:  Ayes - 3 (Koplinka-Loehr, Booth, and Totman); Noes - 2 (Kiefer and Todd).  MOTION CARRIED.

Board of Elections

 Election Reform
 Ms. Zifchock shared with the Committee the Summary of Recommendations from the Governor's Task Force dated June 2002 and said there really is no change or update.  This information will be included in the Governor's program bill that will probably be available in January.  Mr. Koplinka-Loehr asked Ms. Zifchock to keep the Committee informed on the status of the recommendations.

 Ms. Kiefer asked about the ownership of the voting machines.  Ms. Zifchock said she had a conversation with a representative from the State Board of Elections stating equipment ownership is likely to be addressed in the Governor's program bill.  She spoke about Tompkins County's equipment and said the Town of Ithaca and City of Ithaca's machines are being stored in one building which has been a great help.  In the other towns, the machines are kept on site and the custodians have to go to each of those sites to set them up.  Currently the County buys the needed supplies and then charges back the expenses to the towns with the exception of when there is preventive maintenance needed and they pay directly.  Tompkins County is one of the few counties that does it this way.  Most of the towns or cities pay up front for the supplies.

Report from the County Attorney

 Mr. Wood said he did not have a report.

Finance Department

 Resolution - Vending Contract
 Mr. Squires briefly explained the resolution and said there is no direct cost to the County.  By Union agreements the proceeds from the vending machines in public buildings endow the employee vending committee activities which provide social opportunities for employees including flowers for employees in the hospital.  On behalf of the Vending Committee, the Finance Department solicited proposals.  Since there is no cost to the County directly, the award of bid does not have to go to the lowest bidder.  Fine Host of Etna, New York, was the second lowest and the Vending Committee is recommending them because they offer more selections and they are a local vendor.

 It was MOVED by Mr. Totman, seconded by Mr. Todd, to submit the following the resolution to the full Board for approval.  Ms. Kiefer said the Energy Committee has raised concerns with the vending machines energy use and would like to the situation improved; she said a memo went to purchasing specifically mentioning specifications for vending machines.  She asked if this had been included in the bids. Mr. Squires said he would look into it

 A brief discussion followed and a voice vote resulted as follows:  Ayes - 4 (Koplinka-Loehr, Booth, Todd, and Totman); Noes - 1 (Kiefer).  RESOLUTION CARRIED.

RESOLUTION NO. - AWARD OF BID - VENDING SERVICE FIVE-YEAR CONTRACT

 WHEREAS, the Tompkins County Finance Department has duly advertised for bids for Vending Services at various County buildings, and
 WHEREAS, three (3) bids were received on July 24, 2002, and publicly read, now therefore be it
RESOLVED, on recommendation of the Vending Committee and Government Operations Committee, That the bid be awarded to Fine Host Corporation of Etna, New York,
 RESOLVED, further, That the bid be awarded for five years, commencing on October 1, 2002 through September 30, 2007,
 RESOLVED, further, That County Administration is authorized to implement this bid on behalf of the County.
SEQR ACTION: TYPE II – 20

 GASB 34 Report
 David Filiberto, Intern and Graduate Student in Public Administration at Cornell, said he was charged to help Tompkins County implement GASB 34.  GASB 34 is an accounting standard issued by the Government Accounting Standards Board.  It sets standards for the financial statement issued by all state and local government entities in the United States.  It is trying to make government financial statements move toward a corporate model.

 Statement 34 requires use of full-accrual accounting (all revenues and costs are reported in the same year to which they apply).  All current and long-term assets and liabilities, such as infrastructure general-obligation debt is to be reported within the balance sheet.  GASB 34 also requires the cost of fixed assets, i.e., buildings, roads, and equipment, be recognized through depreciation over the life of the assets.  What does not change is the fund financial statement reporting which is still going to be used.

 Challenges
 The challenges include the following:

1. Government entities have not maintained a consolidated inventory of their assets.  There has never been a consolidation of differentiated assets, i.e., roads, buildings, bridges.
2. Never been a requirement to maintain the original cost of infrastructure (roads, bridges, airport runways).
3. To find original cost, land assessment records, board proceedings, board resolutions, and past financial statements were researched to verify and acquire the necessary historical costs.
4. However, in the future when any asset is required or approved it will automatically update on the financial statements.

Project Objectives
Prior to GASB 34 the value of capital assets was not listed on the balance sheet, but was listed as supplementary information in the notes to financial statement section.  Capital assets were at original cost without depreciation.  The first objective was to acquire the value of capital assets for each differentiated infrastructure category--roads, bridges, airport, and buildings.  Accuracy of information already reported was reviewed.  For example, roads are based on an assessment of their condition; there is a technical formula used. Road life is considered 40 years and bridges 50 years.  Straight-line depreciation method was used for each asset to be listed on the balance sheet.  This is a method that spreads the cost of an asset evenly over its useful life.  All governments must start reporting new infrastructure assets (new purchases, acquisitions, and all reconstruction and improvements of infrastructure) once GASB 34 is implemented.

 Results and Benefit
 Currently $111.2 million is the asset figure reported on the financials.  As a result of the new reporting model, assets to be reported are $148.6 million: $113.2 million is net cost of assets minus depreciation and $35.4 million is equipment and joint venture assets.  While assets are being moved to the balance sheet, any debt associated with these assets will also be moved to the balance sheet.  Current outstanding debt is $42.5 million.  The fund model did not tie to a specific program or activity.  An ancillary benefit to the county is that most infrastructure assets enhance the balance sheet because they were not financed by debt.

 Conclusion
 The end result of GASB 34 is that expenditures made to obtain or extend the life of an asset, henceforth will not only be treated as a pure expense but as an increase in an asset base.  The assignment of depreciation to assets avoids the necessity for continuing certification of the condition of the assets by the County Board.  The bottom line is the ability to measure the investment in total assets relative to the depreciation of those assets, instituting a financial reporting model useful to a wider range of users than the previous model.

 It was MOVED by Mr. Booth, seconded by Mr. Totman, and unanimously adopted by voice vote, to approve the minutes of the July 9, 2002 meeting as corrected.

County Clerk

 Resolution - State Archives Grant

 It was MOVED by Mr. Totman, seconded by Mr. Todd, and unanimously adopted by voice vote, to submit the following resolution to the full Board for approval:

RESOLUTION NO.  - AUTHORIZATION TO ACCEPT A GRANT FROM THE STATE ARCHIVES

 WHEREAS, the Records Office has been notified of a grant award from the State Archives in the amount of $24,473, and
 WHEREAS, the State Archives grant represents a collaborative effort between the County Clerk’s Office and Records Management to microfilm permanent and archival civil records, now therefore be it
 RESOLVED, on recommendation of the Government Operations Committee, That the County Administrator or his designee be authorized to execute all contracts related to this award,
 RESOLVED, further, That the Director of Finance is authorized and directed to make the following budget adjustment:

SEQR ACTION:  TYPE II-20

Public Information

 Report
 Ms. Skinner said most of her efforts have been focusing on public input regarding the budget.  Mr. Koplinka-Loehr said there are three ideas for the public input process:  focus groups, public information meeting, and additional public hearings.  The recommendations from the Public Information Advisory Board will be distributed to all Board members.  Three public meetings are being planned with the tentative date of September 26th being the first one scheduled.  An informational meeting on the proposed budget will be scheduled following the October meetings.

 Bylaws
 Ms. Skinner briefly reviewed the bylaws.  Ms. Kiefer spoke about her concern with the format and feels it would be difficult to look up certain information.  Discussion followed concerning the definition of a quorum and the Committee agreed to add the word "seated" in the following sentence:  A quorum is necessary for any decision and consists of a simple majority of the "seated" voting membership.

 It was MOVED by Mr. Totman, seconded by Mr. Booth, to approve the Public Information Advisory Board Bylaws as corrected.  Ms. Kiefer reiterated her concern with the format and said she would not be voting in favor of the bylaws.  Ayes - 4 (Koplinka-Loehr, Booth, Todd, and Totman); Noes - 1 (Kiefer).  MOTION CARRIED.

 WHEREAS, the current members of the Tompkins County Government Operations Committee have reviewed and hereby recommend the approval of the Public Information Advisory Board, now therefore be it
 RESOLVED, on recommendation of the Government Operations Committee, That the Public Information Advisory Board Bylaws be approved and that said bylaws are hereby placed on file with the Clerk of the Board.
SEQR ACTION:  TYPE II-20

Resolution - Name Change - Board of Representatives

 It was MOVED by Mr. Booth, seconded by Mr. Todd, to submit the following resolution to the full Board for approval.  Ms. Kiefer stated for the record that the word "Board" appears in so many titles that it would be simple to change it to Board of Legislators.  Mr. Koplinka-Loehr said he does not like the idea of changing the name and will vote against it.

 A voice vote resulted as follows:  Ayes - 2 (Booth and Totman); Noes - 3 (Koplinka-Loehr, Kiefer, and Todd).  RESOLUTION FAILED.

RESOLUTION NO.  -INTENT TO CHANGE THE NAME OF “THE BOARD OF REPRESENTATIVES” TO THE “TOMPKINS COUNTY LEGISLATURE”
