Approved Minutes
Public
Hearing
Chairman Daniels opened the Public
Hearing at 6:06 PM to consider: A Local Law Adopting a Code of Ethics and
Requiring Financial Disclosure by Certain County Officials and Employees;
Rescinding Local Law No. 5of 1984. Chairman
Daniels asked if there was anyone present that would like to speak in favor of
the proposed law.
Mr. Carroll, a resident of Virgil,
approached the podium to speak in favor of the law. He informed the Legislature that he had been
kept abreast on the local law by reading about it in the paper. He stated that he firmly believes that the
County should adopt such a law. He
understood that the financial portion had been watered down and he stated that
he hoped that met the needs of the Legislature.
He also stated that he firmly believes that an officer of the County
should not hold two positions consecutively specifically in respect to the
Election Commissioner and the Chairman of the party. In Mr. Carroll’s opinion, holding the
positions consecutively would tempt other individuals in the party to do wrong,
which he believes they shouldn’t have the right to put the members in that
position. He stated that as a result, it
would cause one side of the party to possibly do wrong. He stated that if those were the only two
concerns that the Legislature faced in deciding whether to adopt the law, then
they should weigh them and in determining a decision keep their constituents in
mind. He was aware that some of the
Legislators had received phone calls in regards to the adoption. He asked the Legislature to consider those
phone calls if the proposed law came to a vote tonight. He urged the Legislature to vote “Yes.”
Chairman Daniels inquired two additional
times if there was anyone else present that would like to speak in favor of the
local law. With no one presenting
himself or herself, he inquired three times if there was anyone present that
would like to speak in opposition of the law.
With no one stepping forward to speak in opposition, Chairman Daniels
closed the Public Hearing.
Chairman Daniels called Legislative
Session to order at approximately 6:10 PM followed by the Salute to the Flag.
The Clerk of the Legislature took Roll
Call. All members were recorded as
present except for Mr. Hartnett and Ms. Price, as they were recorded absent.
Chairman Daniels called for the approval
of the June 26, 2008 Legislative Session- Regular Meeting minutes. The minutes were unanimously approved.

The 2006 Community Services Board (Mental
Health) Report was received and filed.
Mr. Loomis made a motion top receive and
file a proposal from Barton & Loguidice for the
design and construction of the DMV facility.
A second was received from Mr. McKee.
Mr. Williams inquired what it meant to
receive and file the report. Ms. Wilcox
objected believing that doing so would lock the Legislature into spending roughly
$153,000. Mr. Schrader explained that
the motion would only be to receive and file the report. He stated that he was sure that Mr. Loomis
would follow with a separate motion. Ms.
Wilcox expressed a concern with the fact that the document had just been placed
on their desks and there had been no opportunity to review it. Chairman Daniels informed the Legislature
that if they approved this motion another motion would be made in order to
discuss it. Mr. Williams stated that he
had no problem receiving and filing the report as long as it did not encumber
them. Chairman Daniels informed the
Legislature that would not be. There was
a unanimous vote to receive and file the report.
Mr. Loomis made a motion to accept the
proposal and authorize the work laid out in the term agreement. He respectfully asked for a second in order
to keep the project on track. A second
was received from Mr. Cornell. Mr.
Tagliente stated that he didn’t believe this should pass the full legislature
with 2/3 votes, as it authorizes a 7.5 million building as opposed to
others. He stated that the Legislature
should be looking into all options and did not need a building of that
size. Chairman Daniels informed them
that the building size had already been voted on. Mr. Tagliente stated that when it comes down
to money the proposal would have to pass with 2/3 votes. Mr. Schrader informed him that it only needs
to be approved by simple majority because the money has already been set aside. Mr. Tagliente inquired why a 2/3 vote was
needed for approval of the Health facility.
Mr. Schrader replied that part of the approval was authorizing a bond
for the construction costs. He explained
that bonding for a facility requires a 2/3 vote. He informed the Legislature that money has already
been set aside for the project through the Tobacco Reserve. Mr. Daniels asked for further explanation of
the cost. Mr. Schrader stated there was
an understanding that the facility would be built between $150-$200 per square
foot. He stated that 7,500 square feet
was the maximum for the building and predicted the actual square footage to be
between 6,000-6,500 square feet. He
stated that the reason for the lower square footage was that the voting
machines took up less space than originally anticipated. He explained that the design phase services
were a little high due to the request to make the facility a green
facility. As a result, the engineering
costs for the design would be increased.
Ms. Tytler inquired if it would be a green building or a lead certified
green building. Mr. Schrader responded
it would be just a green building. Mr.
Williams inquired if the proposal would return to committee and then to full
legislature if the contract for the design were approved. Mr. Schrader said no. He explained that a resolution was passed by
the Legislature at the last meeting directing that a proposal be brought to
full legislature for approval, which is what has been placed on your
desks. In regards to a contract, a
contract has already been established with Barton & Loguidice. He explained that the contract was used to
derive the proposal. He further stated
that the fees that are delineated in the agreement have been used to draft the
proposal. Mr. Williams inquired if by
accepting this they would be approving the design. Mr. Schrader stated that construction
documents would be created per the schedule.
Mr. Williams asked if it was too late to stop the project or if the next
time they would have any contact with the project would be when they went done
to get their licenses. Mr. Schrader
stated that the project had already begun, but that didn’t mean the Legislature
could not stop the project. He stated
there were still contracts that still needed to be approved by the Legislature
per the attached timetable. He stated
that if the Legislature felt that the bids came in too high or if they felt the
bids were unacceptable, they would have the opportunity to change it. Ms. Wilcox inquired why the Aging facility
timetable was attached to the proposal when that facility was not even being
spoken on. Mr. Schrader replied it was
there to address some concerns that were raised at the last Legislative
Session. One specific concern with the
timetables was the inclusion of public comment into the projects that the
Legislature was considering. It is
attached to show that the concerns are being addressed. Mr. Willcox inquired what the final size of
the building was. He was unsure if it
was going to be 7,500 square feet, 6,000 square feet or 4,000 square feet. Mr. Schrader replied the final design would
be approves in August by full Legislature.
Mr. Willcox asked if the 4,000 square foot building was no longer being
considered. Mr. Schrader replied that
was a correct statement. For Mr. Willcox’s clarification, he asked if the building cost
would be 6,000 – 7,500 square foot multiplied by $200. Mr. Schrader stated that would be true. Ms. Wilcox inquired if the full Legislature
would be voting on a resolution on August 28th for the approval of
the project and authorizing a contract for A & E. Mr. Schrader stated only if it was the wish
of the Legislature. Ms. Tytler inquired
what A & E was. Mr. Schrader
responded that it stood for architectural and engineering. He said it basically would approve the final
design and the project. Ms. Wilcox
inquired if it would be before the project goes out to bid. Mr. Schrader stated that was correct. Ms. Wilcox stated that the Legislature would
be approving spending $101,000 for the design and if they didn’t like the
design the money would be gone. Mr.
Loomis inquired what was not to like.
Ms. Wilcox responded there was a lot not to like as they had not seen
the design. Mr. Loomis informed her that
the design had to be paid for in order to have the design created. He stated that the Legislature has agreed on
the size and had the intent to the project forward. He stated that they have the responsibility
to provide the tax payers with a green building that may cost a little more in
design, but will save them in the long run.
We have a building: that provides what the DMV needs and is a place that
can house the Elections’ voting machines which is climate controlled. He stated that the design was a basically an
open floor plan with some outlets. He
did not foresee the building cost being escalated by the price of lights and
outlets. He urged the Legislature to
move forward so other progress could be made in other areas of the County and
encouraged all to vote in favor.
Chairman Daniels stated that in terms of a timeline it was predicted to
have the facility built by June 1st.
He stated that the longer the wait to approve, the higher the cost will
be. Mr. Willcox agreed; stated that
under the last administration they were looking into a 4,000 square foot building
that would cost $600,000, now they were at 1.5 million. Ms. Wilcox asked for the Aging timeline to be
pulled from the proposal. It was agreed
to do so. Mr. Loomis informed the other
members that the intent is to have the DMV proposal to be on the next Building
and Grounds agenda for discussion. He
urged all members interested to attend.
Mr. Williams stated he was more comfortable voting knowing there would
be prior committee and legislative review in August.
All members voted in favor, except Mr.
Dafoe, Ms. Wilcox and Mr. Willcox voted nay.
The report was received and filed.

Agenda
No. 4 – Abolish/Create Buildings & Grounds Department Assistant
Superintendent of Buildings & Grounds/ Building Maintenance Foreperson.
Motion made by Mr. Loomis; Motion
seconded by Mr. Spaulding.
Mr. Willcox inquired how this would
better serve the County. Mr. Schrader
stated that it would be less money. Mr.
Willcox countered not if overtime is factored in. Mr. Schrader explained that the position is
not intended to have inordinate overtime; it allows us to have a working
supervisor. The current position was
prohibited from doing union work. This
position allows for the supervision of staff as well as doing the work. Ms. Wilcox inquired if the job description
could not be rewritten to reflect those needs.
Mr. Schrader replied there are two distinct issues. One is that all positions are classified by
Civil Service which causes a conflict of management versus union. The second issue is according to the Taylor
Law it is prohibited for a management position to do union work. If we were to rewrite the job description,
the position would still be classified as Civil Service causing the County to
be in position where a suit could be filed against them. What is being proposed allows for more flexibility
in the position: to do more work and supervise the staff. Mr. Willcox asked in regards to the prior
position how many hours could be worked.
Mr. Schrader stated that they would work a 35 hrs/wk, but they could
work more hours and only get paid for 35 hours because the position was salary
not hourly. The proposed position would
be hourly as you suggest and would be applicable for overtime. Managers do not receive overtime. Mr. Willcox asked how long the manager was
employed. Mr. Schrader responded
approximately 3 months. Mr. Willcox
asked for the reason for his removal.
Mr. Schrader stated that he was on probation and was released. Mr. Willcox inquired how long the
probationary period was. Mr. Schrader
responded that it had just changed, but he believed it was a 3 month period that
could not be appealed.
