Comments made
regarding Resolution No. 106-09 included:
Legislator Dibble voiced his
support for the first two resolutions, as they will help to address parking
problems, both ongoing problems and those resulting from the Court addition.
Legislator O’Grady spoke against the
resolution because he hasn’t seen a concrete plan of the end result for Court
Street. Mr. O’Grady noted that he’s
heard there may be additional plans. If
there was a concrete plan, he possibly could support this. There may also be other options. Maybe the answer to alleviating the parking
problem is relocating some departments to other locations, which may be just as
cheap as acquiring the properties, taking them off the tax roll, and making
parking areas.
Legislator Ungermann commented that although
there’s always been a parking problem, it will be exacerbated by the Court
addition. According to the SEQR process,
the parking issue should have been included in the negative declaration and it
wasn’t. The matter should be returned to
the table until a full review is done. There
isn’t a complete plan yet, and now we will be affecting the environment of the
entire neighborhood. Also, some of the
properties are very old. Prior to
purchasing, there should be a letter from the NYS Office of Historic
Preservation releasing the properties.
This issue should have been included with the original Court facilities
SEQR process, so Mr. Ungermann felt that the way the law reads, the project had
been segmented.
Legislator Pullen commented that as Mr.
Ungermann has done in the past, he brings things up without doing his homework. On this matter, he doesn’t know what he is
talking about. The SEQR process has been
done specifically for this. It was not
segmented because this option for parking had not been considered at the time
the SEQR for the Courthouse was completed.
Other methods for addressing parking concerns were looked at, and this
appears to be a reasonable and viable approach.
Mr. Pullen was confident that the SEQR will hold up to scrutiny; this is
just another attempt to stall moving ahead with the current plan. The SEQR has been done, it was reviewed and
scrutinized, and a negative declaration was adopted. Mr. Pullen noted that he’s comfortable with
continuing ahead and felt this was the most reasonable and effective way to
address the parking issue. There are specific
details to be resolved, and no plans have been set on materials to be used for
the parking areas. These issues will be
considered in committee. Mr. Pullen
reiterated that the proposed resolution is appropriate and has gone through the
proper channels.
Legislator Kruger disagreed with Mr. Pullen, expressing
his opinion that it is unreasonable to consider building a new Court facility
while leaving the equivalent of three gymnasiums empty on the third floor. It’s unreasonable to exacerbate the parking
problem by replacing part of the existing parking lot with a new building. It’s unreasonable to leave a facility like
the
Chairman Crandall clarified that the SEQR process
has been reviewed by the
Resolution Intro. No. 107-09

Comments made

Legislator Kruger pointed out that the County
had $118,000 in the former
Legislator Ungermann noted that the same
comments he offered for Resolution No. 106-09 applied to this resolution as
well.
Legislator Burdick noted that he couldn’t see
where parking down the hill would be the most efficient way to go. There’s been talk of a shuttle bus, but with
the winter weather, walking up would create nothing but hazards. Mr. Burdick suggested that maybe we should
look at moving some offices off the hill instead of adding to the parking
problem.
RESOLUTION
INTRO. NO. 116-09 (RESOLUTION MODIFYING
THE PROVISION OF HEALTH INSURANCE FOR COUNTY LEGISLATORS BY REQUIRING A
LEGISLATOR TO CONTRIBUTE ONE-HALF THE COST THEREOF) WAS REFERRED TO THE PERSONNEL
COMMITTEE following a
motion made by Legislator O’Grady, seconded by Legislator Reynolds and
carried. Comments made prior to the
motion to refer included:
Legislator O’Grady explained the reason he
introduced the resolution was to ensure there would be some sort of fair action
taken on the health insurance issue.
It’s an issue of concern for some taxpayers. If he had brought it up at a Personnel
Committee meeting, he wasn’t sure it would be addressed. It’s not being presented as a big cost
savings, but the County is asking full-time employees and department heads to
contribute more, and Mr. O’Grady felt the Legislators should lead by example. Maybe 50 percent isn’t the answer, but there
aren’t many part-time jobs in the County that receive medical benefits. Although Legislators are technically
full-time, taxpayers consider them part-time.
Legislator Ungermann read from a University of
Buffalo Regional Institute Policy Brief received in January 2009, entitled “The
End of Local Government as We Know It,” which addressed the non-pension
retirement liabilities of New York’s local governments and the choices they
will have to make that could change the face of local government. Excerpts: “For municipalities with the largest retiree
liabilities, the promise of lifetime health care for workers … is a major
contributor. …These governments are
caught in a bind similar to many older companies with unsustainable
obligations. …Striking a workable
balance that treats employees and retirees fairly while doing the same for
taxpayers is ideal. But if a balance
cannot be reached, radical measures – bankruptcy, consolidation, or some other
substantial restructuring – may be inevitable.”
Mr. Ungermann disagreed with Mr. O’Grady about the cost savings, as he
feels this proposal could save between $50,000 and $60,000 per year. Mr. Ungermann also read from a book written
by Lee Iacocca, entitled “Where Have All the Leaders Gone?” a section called, “Share
the Sacrifice.” The article encouraged
that sacrifice begin at the top. Mr. Ungermann
referred to a previous discussion about negotiating union contracts and more
contributions, and related that Mr. Fanton said unless you have a hammer to
hold over their heads, you won’t get anything.
Mr. Ungermann commented that this proposal would be the beginning of the
hammer. It’s a start.
Legislator Fanton responded that his statements
were not as Mr. Ungermann presented. He
didn’t say you wouldn’t get anything; his point was that the County doesn’t
have the same hammer that industry does.
You can’t move the County; industry can get up and move. The County has to use negotiations, and
that’s what we’re doing.
Legislator Pullen commented that this is an
important issue and deserves debate. As
was the case with the proposal to reduce the size of the Legislature, it’s not
as simple as it seems. There are some
things that need to be considered.
Legislator Russo noted that this is not the
first time this issue has come up. Several
years ago time was spent with non-unit employees and Legislators to come up
with a fair number for health benefit contribution. A committee was appointed, and they arrived
at $25 per month, which Mr. Russo felt was very low. If the proposal goes to Personnel, they need
to look at the entire issue for non-unit staff and Legislators. Mr. Russo also noted that if 50 percent of
the cost of health insurance is taken from Legislators who are only making
$8,500 per year, they won’t be making much.
Legislator Kruger pointed out that an ad hoc
committee discussed the health insurance contribution issue in the past. Both he and Mr. Ungermann referred to articles
written on the topic, one dated August 14, 2007 by Mr. Pullen and one dated March
29, 2006 by Mr. Ungermann. Nothing has
been accomplished. It’s nearly the end
of the term, and Mr. Kruger would like to see some progress for the taxpayers’
sake.
RESOLUTION
INTRO. NO. 117-09 (CREATING POSITION OF CASEWORKER IN THE DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL
SERVICES) WAS WITHDRAWN
following a motion made by Legislator Truax, seconded by Legislator Dibble and
carried. The position would have
assisted Child Protective Services staff by providing preventive services to
identified families. Anticipated funding
from the New York State Office of Children and Family Services for Family
Assessment Response workers did not come through.
Resolution Intro. No.
118-09 (Creating One New Part-Time Position of Senior Account Clerk Typist in the
Sheriff’s Department) was amended on a motion made by Legislator Dibble,
seconded by Legislator Fanton and carried, by adding the statement, “That a
maximum of seventeen hours per week is authorized for this position.”

(Memo: The part-time position created by Resolution
No. 108-09 was needed to supplement the Civil Office. Income Executions are up 17 percent over last
year, as is other work associated with the office. Due to the economic situation, these numbers
are expected to continue to rise. Also,
the current Clerk of the Civil Office is the only person on staff with an
understanding of the duties of the position.
The Sheriff’s Office would be in dire straits should the current Clerk
become unavailable. No benefits will be
associated with this position.)
RESOLUTION

attendance record of each and all other factors having an effect on the work
record of each, and
WHEREAS, this Board concurs in such recommendation, now, therefore,
be it

Ayes, 3 Noes, 0 Absent Voting No: Kruger, Russo, Ungermann
Comments made regarding Resolution No. 109-09 included: Legislator Kruger voiced his opposition due to the inclusion of both unit and
non-unit positions in the same resolution.
The County is bound under contract for unit position salary increments,
but is not bound for non-unit positions; they should be handled separately.

COMMENTS:
Legislator Pullen
commented on some information provided by the Deputy County Treasurer on health
insurance costs for 2003 through 2008. Costs
have gone up for most years, but the total dropped 12.5 percent from 2007 to
2008, or almost $1 million. The reduction
may have been partially due to decreased usage, but was also significantly
related to the change in third party administrators. That change was implemented by this Board. Last year was the first time we saw the benefit
of that change. It’s uncertain whether
there will be a cash savings for 2009, but in looking at the increases for the past
several years, lately there has been a noticeable lack of increase or actual
decrease in health insurance costs. Mr.
Pullen noted that on June 29, a consultant from Manning and Napier will answer
questions on proposed changes in the basic health insurance plan for non-unit
personnel including Legislators. The
sooner we implement the change, the sooner we will see additional savings. Legislator Kruger commented that during
negotiations back in 1994, the AFSCME Union brought in insurance
representatives to propose similar savings, and the Board turned it down.
ADJOURNMENT: The meeting was adjourned at 3:00 p.m. on a motion made by Legislator
Truax, seconded by Legislator Dibble and carried.
