ALLEGANY COUNTY BOARD OF LEGISLATORS

REGULAR SESSION

JUNE 23, 2008

** APPROVED **

---

The regular meeting of the Board of Legislators was called to order at 2:00 p.m. by Chairman Curtis W. Crandall, who then led in the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag. The Invocation was given by Legislator Pullen.

ROLL CALL: 15 Present; 1 Absent.

APPROVAL OF MINUTES:

The Board meeting minutes of June 9, 2008 were approved on a motion made by Legislator Dibble, seconded by Legislator Pullen and carried.

PUBLIC HEARING:

Chairman Crandall suspended the meeting to hold a public hearing on the Allegany County Comprehensive Plan. Chairman Crandall noted that the public hearing is one more step in the process required by law for the adoption of the plan. The County has not had a Comprehensive Plan in the past, and work began on its development about one year ago. This is a very historical document, and once adopted, will play a major role in grant applications. The Comprehensive Plan is a working document that will be continually changing as the County moves forward.

There being no one desiring to speak, the public hearing was declared closed, and the Board reconvened in regular session.

PRIVILEGE OF THE FLOOR:

Chairman Crandall took the floor to present a Plaque of Appreciation to Daniel J. Guiney, in recognition of his thirty years of dedicated service to Allegany County. Mr. Guiney retired January 3, 2008 from his position as County Attorney. He began in 1978, first as an Assistant County Attorney, then Social Services Attorney, First Assistant County Attorney, and since 1998 as County Attorney. Many of the Legislators, as well as other County personnel, have relied on and appreciated Mr. Guiney’s information, research, recommendations, and honest opinions. Daniel Guiney expressed his thanks and noted that his time spent with the Legislature was a pleasure. Sometimes they disagreed, but most often they agreed. People don’t realize what a Legislator’s job is like until they do it. He knows about all the time and effort they put in, and remarked that he hasn’t known one Legislator that didn’t have the best interest of the County in mind with whatever they did.

Chairman Crandall presented a Certificate of Appreciation to Frederick Sinclair in recognition of his thirty years of outstanding work and dedication to the Allegany County Soil and Water Conservation District. Mr. Sinclair is retiring, with June 27 as his last official day in the office. Although not an actual County employee, he has worked for the Soil and Water Conservation District since 1978, first as a Conservation District Technician, then as a District Field Manager, and finally as Executive Director. Mr. Sinclair’s accomplishments range from the work he performed in obtaining funds, to providing those in policy and administrative positions with the information necessary for making decisions. Most recently of note is his key role in putting together the Comprehensive Plan and work on the Genesee River encroachment project. Fred Sinclair spoke on the environment and natural resources that make Allegany County special, and the need to continue to conserve, protect, and enhance these resources. Through working on the Comprehensive Plan and looking toward the future, he realized and pointed out that “one does not get at the abundance by concentrating on the scarcity.” In Allegany County we are surrounded by resources and can look forward to a bright future.

Privilege of the floor was granted to County Administrator/Budget Officer John Margeson and County Treasurer/Deputy Budget Officer Terri Ross for a fiscal presentation on the 2007 Budget year. General Fund expenditures of $77.01 million exceeded budgeted appropriations of $76.81 million by $200,000, but revenues of $79.43 million came in higher than the budgeted amount of $76.81 million by $2.62 million, resulting in a gain in the 2007 General Fund balance of $2.42 million. Areas where spending exceeded the budget were highlighted: Employee Health Insurance, Jail Personnel, Public Transportation, Long-Term Home Health Care, Assigned Counsel, and Community College Expense. Areas of budgetary savings or excess revenue included: Housing of Out-of-County Inmates, Interest and Earnings, Interest and Penalties, Sales Tax, and County Clerk Fees. General Fund expenses and revenues were graphed out for the past seven years beginning with 2001 to illustrate year-end gains and losses over that time period. The years 2001, 2002, and 2003 showed losses of $.3, $6.8, and $2.8 million respectively, with each of the subsequent years of 2004 through 2007 showing steady gains of $.7, $2.72, $1.18, and $2.42 million respectively. The Unreserved Fund Balance has shown a corresponding increase from its lowest point in 2003 of a negative $3.8 million to a positive $2.9 million at year-end 2007. In regards to what the Fund Balance should be, Mr. Margeson noted that some experts suggest ten percent of the operating budget, which would be $10 million for us. He looks at it differently, or as a “savings account” for the legislators to use as a stabilizer and to stave off high property tax increases when working on the following year’s budget. Mr. Margeson would like to see the balance at double the amount it is now. He believes it’s prudent to have 25 percent of the amount the County has to raise in property taxes in the Fund Balance.

Sandy Sheldon, of Caneadea, questioned what major things were responsible for the fiscal improvement. Mr. Margeson responded that it was a combination of the Legislature dedicating itself to tighter budgeting and less spending, the creation of a Budget Committee which has kept a vigilant watch on the budget year-round, and increasing the County portion of Sales Tax from four to four and one-half percent which provides an additional $2 million in revenue.

Chairman Crandall remarked that the 2007 financial report is worthy news. Property taxes have gone up unacceptably, and the sales tax rate had to be increased. During those hard years, some difficult but necessary decisions had to be made to put things in order. The Budget Committee, implemented by former Chairman James Palmer, allows for budget work to be a year-round operation, rather than looking at it late in the year and trying to catch up. The process to further stabilize the finances of the County will be ongoing.
