STATE OF THE COUNTY JANUARY 2, 2001
Upon the creation of the Livingston County Millennium Committee, a mission statement was adopted, which stated that ΑThe mission of the Livingston County Millennium Committee is to celebrate our heritage and achievements, and to envision our future.≅
Through the efforts of those involved, I believe we accomplished and learned a great deal about our county and who we are. We were able to bring together the young and the not so young, business and government, and people from every area of the County. We truly ΑCelebrated Our Past and Envisioned our Future.≅
The organizational skills and commitments of the many volunteers and county staff who unselfishly gave of their time and talents made each and every endeavor we under took an outstanding and truly memorable success. It was my great fortune to have been the Chairman of the Board of Supervisors during this unique point in our history. 2 ===
During the year 2000, I believe Livingston County government accomplished a great deal. Among our achievements this past year have been: Χ In spite of spiraling increases in the cost of many mandated programs, such as Medicaid, we were able to hold the line on taxes. Χ We completed the construction of the new Highway Facility at Hampton Corners. Χ With the assistance of the Livingston County Water and Sewer Authority, we have nearly completed the water and sewer extensions to Hampton Corners and American Rock Salt Mine and in doing so, our County Administrator and Director of Economic Development were able to secure additional state aid of over half million dollars to cover increased costs primarily due to inflation. Χ We have completed the construction of a new Emergency Communication System, which will benefit all sectors of Livingston County=s public safety and emergency response services. Χ After an in depth and thorough review, the Board of Supervisors voted to undertake the securitization of our share of the National Tobacco Settlement which allowed us to completely eliminate all future debt service for our Hampton Corners complex and to provide for future debt reduction and budget stability in years to come. With the recent news of the past week regarding the decrease in tobacco consumption, I believe, verifies the correctness of this decision. Χ In looking ahead to the challenges 2001 will bring, I look forward to working with the Board, County Administrator, Department Heads and the Community in several areas. Χ The completion of our comprehensive long-term care study and its recommendations. We will again be in the position of making some significant decisions, but I have full confidence that whatever the outcome, our concern for the future needs of our citizens will be the overriding concern. Χ We hope to complete the final phases of the Hampton Corners complex with the construction of the Animal Control and the LATS facilities. Χ Economically, I look to the continued growth of our industrial parks, a business incubator, telecommunications initiatives and the development of the Dansville ΑCastle≅ Housing Project. Χ I look forward to the completion and grand opening of the American Rock Salt Mine. Χ We will soon be completing a review of the County Jail and it=s future needs. Χ I trust that we will achieve fair and equitable outcomes of the collective bargaining processes currently underway with our labor unions.
I am appreciative of the support and cooperation I have received during the past year and look forward to building our future with each and every one of you.

2. Supervisor Jaeger announced there will be a reception for Angela Ellis on Friday, February 2, 2001 in the Strong Room. Mr. Jaeger stated Angela has worked for us for many years and encouraged all Supervisors to attend the reception. Chairman Merrick agreed with Mr. Jaeger and encouraged everyone to attend.
3. Supervisor Layland confirmed that the January Finance meeting is January 19; however, the Intercounty Association of Western New York meets on the third Friday and the schedule had to be changed to the first Wednesday and fourth Monday of each month at 1:30 p.m.
4. Supervisor Olverd questioned if there was going to be any discussion regarding Board meetings no longer being held in the evening. Supervisor Layland, Chairman of the Finance & Administration Committee, stated that the Committee discussed this matter at their 12/21/00 meeting and agreed not to revise the Rules of Order, JANUARY 10, 2001 13
therefore, the schedule of the Board meetings returns to its original schedule; the second and fourth Wednesday of each month at 1:30 p.m. Supervisor Olverd stated he liked the schedule of having an evening Board meeting. Supervisor Layland stated he believed the change in the schedule was not doing what it was set out to do; increasing public participation. Supervisor Daley stated he is a member of the Finance & Administration Committee and supported the evening meetings, not because of his schedule, but to try to get the public to participate and this was not successful. Supervisor Kennison mentioned that if the Board truly wants public participation we will need to build their interest and provide opportunities of interest to entice them to attend, such as conducting a 10-15 minute deliberation on issues prior to the meeting commencing or at the beginning of the meeting. There has to be a particular purpose for the public to want to attend and it probably does not matter if the meeting is during the day or in the evening.
5. Supervisor Moore, Chairman of the Highway & Public Works Committee, announced that the January committee meeting is scheduled on January 17 at 11:00 a.m. instead of 10:00 a.m. due to the Facility Options Steering Committee meeting at 9:00 a.m.

8. Supervisor Bassage, Chairman of the Health Committee, announced a special Facility Options Steering Committee meeting has been scheduled on January 17 at 9:00 a.m. in the Strong Room, to discuss issues of concern without the consultant present.
9. The County Administrator announced there is a joint Central Services and Public Safety & Criminal Justice Committee meeting scheduled on January 23, 2001 at 10:00 a.m. in the Strong Room to discuss the recent Jail Study prepared by Clark Patterson Associates. All supervisors are invited to attend this meeting.
10. Supervisor Kennison suggested to the Committee Chairpersons that when a department head has exhausted their time noted on the agenda that the Chairperson should ask the Committee permission to continue the discussion. When Department Heads realize this action will take place, the meetings will start to conform with the agenda.
11. Chairman Merrick announced he attended two Public Forums on January 9, 2001 for the Livingston County Public Transportation Strategic Plan. Both sessions were fairly attended and the County received quality input regarding transportation in Livingston County.

RESOLUTION NO. 2001-073. SEEKING EXPANSION OF EMPIRE ZONES TO ALL COUNTIES WHEREAS Empire Zones (formerly known as Economic Development Zones) were authorized by the State Legislature to provide for enhanced public and private sector incentives for certain distressed areas of the State, and WHEREAS through later legislative changes the value of incentives offered through the Empire Zones has become a significant variable in attraction of business to New York State, and WHEREAS those communities with Empire Zones have been able to incorporate areas into existing zones not meeting the original distress criteria with administrative ease, and WHEREAS despite the authorization of 54 Empire Zones statewide, 26 counties in New York State, including Livingston County, did not qualify for Empire Zones lacking the original distress criteria to qualify, and WHEREAS, by a separate program, Empire State Development has conferred upon two sites in Livingston County Build NOW-NY certified status, and WHEREAS, these certified sites do not qualify for Empire Zones under current law, now, therefore, be it RESOLVED that Livingston County hereby finds that designation of an Empire Zone is critical to the business attraction strategy of Livingston County and New York State, and be it further RESOLVED that Livingston County supports the legislation proposed by Governor Pataki to expand the Empire Zones program, provided such legislation also incorporates expansion of the zones into each county, and be it further RESOLVED that copies of this resolution be sent to the Governor, Livingston County State Legislators, the Commissioner of Empire State Development and the 25 other counties that lack Empire Zones. Specifically; Columbia, Cortland, Delaware, Franklin, Genesee, Greene, Hamilton, Madison, Nassau, Orleans, Otsego, Putnam, Richmond, Rockland, Saratoga, Schoharie, Schuyler, Steuben, Sullivan, Tompkins, Warren, Washington, Wayne, Wyoming, and Yates. Dated at Geneseo, New York February 28, 2001 Legislative & Agricultural Affairs Committee
Chairman Merrick asked Pat Rountree to come forth and give a presentation on the resolution regarding Empire Zones. This is a resolution that urges the State Legislature to expand Empire Zones to all counties. Empire Zones were originally created as economic development zones in 1986 to provide a large layer of incentives to economic development projects in distressed areas. Changes have been made in legislation that have expanded the program which provided significant benefits and enabled those areas that have economic development zones to virtually expand them any place. P. Rountree explained the benefits of an Empire Zone i.e. tax exemptions and discounts. Livingston County does not have nor does it qualify for an Empire Zone because our County is perceived not to have enough poverty and distress, therefore, we do not qualify to submit an application. P. Rountree stated that our County needs to have economic development zones. P. Rountree distributed a handout (on file). The County Administrator stated he supports the resolution. After attending the recent NYSAC conference, NYSAC identified this is an issue and concurs with P. Rountree=s comments. The Board of Supervisors and the taxpayers have made an investment in these industrial sites, and we need to have the same ability to have an Empire Zone as other counties. As a rural county, we do not have all poor people concentrated in one area of the county. The County Administrator stated he encourages the Board of Supervisors to vote in favor of the resolution, and when you have the opportunity to speak to state officials, remind them how important this is to us. We have talked to our local state representatives, and they are supportive; however, the more attention this will get, the better off we will be.
Mr. Jaeger questioned Res. No. 2001-067 in reference to the multi-modal program funding. The County Administrator stated that this is contingent on the State Budget, and he reviewed a statement provided by NYSAC in the Weekly Wire (on file) urging us to ask the Governor and the Legislators to restore the full $350 million dollar fund level for this program.

The County Administrator stated that payments are being reduced by 11% and this confirms that the Board of Supervisors made the right decision to securitize the tobacco monies. 82 REPORT OF THE SUPERVISORS=== PROCEEDINGS

PRIVILEGE OF THE FLOOR 1. County Treasurer Carolyn Taylor presented her 2000 Annual Report (on file) highlighting (1) the successful completion of the tobacco securitization which impacted the financial statements, (2) the new procedure for county tax sale auctions and the next auction is scheduled for May 15, and (3) the updated office procedure of printing W2's on the laser printer. Review of analysis of fund balance, reserves and capitol projects.
The County Treasurer thanked the Board of Supervisors, County Administrator, Department Heads and her staff for their cooperation and the Information & Technology Services Department for developing her Power-Point presentation.
Supervisor Daley thanked the County Treasurer for her report and stated that the report was easy to understand and commended her on the fine job she did presenting her report.
The County Administrator commended the County Treasurer and thanked her for continuously providing good financial information. The County Administrator stated that the general fund ended with $11.3 million and that is after the significant $800,000 hit with Medicaid expenditures. This is a result of the department heads monitoring their departmental budgets and not spending all the money that is available. If the department heads were not conscientious, there would probably be at least a $1 million reduction in the fund balance.
Chairman Merrick thanked the County Treasurer for a fine presentation and congratulated the department heads as well.

The County Administrator stated he appreciates Chairman Merrick and the County Treasurer apprizing the Board of this commendation. He stated it is important to maintain surpluses to avoid raising taxes and to look at the budget all the time to keep a strong financial position. The County Administrator mentioned that this will continue to be important in the years to come when the State and Federal government will push even more in the direction of the County to provide services with County dollars. The County Administrator again acknowledged the Departments Heads on how well they manage their budget and the fact that last year unfunded mandates were made up through operational savings as a result of good management on the part of the department heads.

The County Administrator stated that soon the County will be going to bond market for possibly a jail expansion and something to be done with the nursing homes, and this bond rating will ultimately result in savings to tax payers.

Livingston and Wayne Counties have the largest transport service area. In Livingston County there are 150,000 ride=s per year currently being provided by the transportation services already in place. Mr. Riley stated that RGRTA is JUNE 13, 2001 111
currently covering over 9 million miles a year. Mr. Riley reviewed the Strategic Plan for RTS. He then acknowledged the appointment of Milo Turner who filled J. Errigo=s spot on the board of the Rochester Regional Transportation Service.
Mr. Riley explained the process, the goals and objectives of the plan. These included several surveys from LATS riders, Doctors offices, Churches, and other agencies such as Catholic Charities, DSS, and Mental Health. The purpose was to consider customer satisfaction, the number of persons currently using public transportation, and what could be determined as unmet needs. The study determined the analysis for fixed routes, evening services, weekend services, primarily for shopping and medical needs. Popular routes, to include links to Rochester, Warsaw, Hornell and Batavia should be considered. RGRTA could be the single source to tie all ride services together.
Mr. Riley stated that ongoing action would include building on the existing service, advertising, creating a web site, and identify all the potential costs for new services. Mr. Riley was asked how rising fuel costs have effected the RGRTA. Mr. Riley reported that $100,000 was budgeted to cover the $1.15 wholesale cost and the salaries, drivers, and mechanics account for 76% of every dollar budgeted. Mr. Riley restated they are looking at customizing routes to meet the customers needs and still utilizing the volunteer services within the County. Marketing is critical to promote and pull the plan together, and he is seeking to establish a County Advisory Board for Livingston County.
Mr. Olverd entered
Mr. Riley stated that they have expanded in Monroe County by partnering with County/Government and private businesses as a strategic partner. As an example, Park Ridge and St. Marys worked as a partner with RTS to establish additional route services to their facility by crediting the ridership to the amount guaranteed. Further discussion on the ways of connecting with businesses and agencies within this county. In closing Mr. Riley stated that they do not want to take someone=s Αturf≅ over, they are simply looking at filling in the gaps in the service already existing in the County.
Mr. Riley thanked the Board and those in attendance and stated he is looking forward to working with this County.
Mr. Merrick asked if there were any questions from the board for Mr. Riley.
Mr. Kennison stated he wondered about subsidized housing and how the RGRTA planned for new development as he feels this is a key component to planning effectively. Mr. Riley stated he agreed that housing sites should be considered. He further stated he would be delighted to speak to the Planning, Economic Development, and the Developers in the County to work with them as soon as possible on any new housing projects.

2. Caledonia Supervisor Layland and as Chairman of the Finance & Administration Committee, requested Privilege of the Floor for County Administrator Dominic F. Mazza. The County Administrator presented background information for Res. Nos. 2001-228, 229 and 230 highlighting the impact of New York State and Federal Mandates, as they relate to the property tax. The County Administrator referenced a memorandum and packet distributed (on file) entitled ΑMandates, Medicaid and the New York State Real Property Tax≅. He explained that 74 cents on a dollar is spent for unfunded State and Federal mandates. The County Administrator JUNE 27, 2001 123
stated all these programs are worthy, however, the issue is how they are to be paid for. The County Administrator reviewed the packet in detail. One concern that the County Administrator mentioned is the fact that mandated program costs in 2001 exceed the tax levy of the General Fund. The County Administrator acknowledged James Brunner in the audience who is the County representative for the 3-5 year Pre-school Handicap Children=s Program.
The County Administrator stated that the said resolutions before the Board of Supervisors today are very important in order to turn this process around, and it is also important to have this information shared at the town level to begin educating the public on this ΑNew York State property tax≅ issue.
Nunda Supervisor Brooks asked which other States have significant local shares of Medicaid contributions. The County Administrator responded Michigan, California, and Florida.

RESOLUTION NO. 2001-228. SUPPORTING STATE LEGISLATION THAT WOULD LIMIT THE AGGREGATE LOCAL FINANCIAL SHARE OF THE COSTS OF THE MEDICAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM WHEREAS, Medicaid is a vital component to New York=s health care delivery system, providing health care to New York States most vulnerable citizens; and WHEREAS, since the enactment of the Medicaid program, counties in New York State have been required to share in the costs of services, and Livingston County is mandated by the State of New York to contribute a 25 percent matching share with the exception of long-term care services; and WHEREAS, Livingston County has minimal authority by state law to manage, control or reduce local Medicaid costs, and therefore, serves primarily as a means to transfer a portion of the states share of Medicaid costs from the statewide tax base to the Livingston County property tax base; and WHEREAS, in most states, the state government assumes all of the responsibility for the non-federal share of the Medicaid program, so that the burden of paying for the medically needy is distributed over the widest possible tax base; and JUNE 27, 2001 129
WHEREAS, Livingston County taxpayers currently pay almost $5,600,000.00 in Medicaid costs through the Livingston County budget, which represents 39 percent of the property taxes paid by local taxpayers to the county; and WHEREAS, Livingston County taxpayers are currently funding a Medicaid local share that has grown 17.5% annually for 1999 and 2000 which makes Medicaid the largest and most volatile single expense in the Livingston County budget; and WHEREAS, the growth of local Medicaid costs are siphoning away the limited resources available to fund the entire Livingston County budget without adding new pressures on the property taxpayers of Livingston County; and WHEREAS, A.8701 is legislation sponsored in the New York State Assembly that would cap the level of Medicaid growth that would be funded by the property taxpayers of Livingston County; and WHEREAS, under this proposal, Livingston County would pay what they paid in last year for Medicaid plus an increase up to the Consumer Price Index; and WHEREAS, this reasonable approach would provide Livingston County property taxpayers with meaningful budgetary relief, while maintaining Livingston County=s annual commitment to the Medicaid program; now, therefore, be it RESOLVED, Livingston County supports A.8701 and calls upon Senators Dale M. Volker and Patricia K. McGee to support the introduction of companion legislation in the New York State Senate; and be it further RESOLVED, that Livingston County calls upon the Governor and the State Legislator to support A.8701 and enact the legislation into law; and be it further RESOLVED, that the Clerk of the Board is hereby authorized to transmit a certified copy of this resolution to Governor George Pataki; Joseph Bruno, Speaker Pro Tem and Majority Leader of the New York State Senate; Sheldon Silver, Speaker of the New York State Assembly, Senators Dale M. Volker and Patricia K. McGee and Assemblymen Joseph A. Errigo, Brian M. Kolb and Daniel J. Burling; the New York State Association of Counties, and all others deemed necessary and proper. Dated at Geneseo, New York June 27, 2001 Finance & Administration Committee

RESOLUTION NO. 2001-230. SUPPORTING STATE LEGISLATION THAT WOULD ELIMINATE THE LOCAL FINANCIAL SHARE OF ADDITIONAL PROGRAM ENHANCEMENTS UNDER THE MEDICAID PROGRAM WHEREAS, Medicaid is a vital component of New York=s health care delivery system, and was designed to provide health care to New York State=s most vulnerable citizens; and WHEREAS, since the enactment of the Medicaid program, counties in New York State have been required to share in the costs of services, and Livingston County is mandated by the State of New York to contribute a 25 percent matching share with the exception of long-term care services, and WHEREAS, New York State offers one of the broadest and most generous Medicaid packages in the nation, requiring the taxpayers of Livingston County to fund approximately $5,600,000.00 in costs, while most economically comparable states fund all or most of the non-federal share of Medicaid; and WHEREAS, when the state mandates that counties provide additional Medicaid services, but does not provide sufficient fiscal assistance to support those services, Livingston County is forced to rely on its state-constitutionally limited means of raising revenues locally; and WHEREAS, to the extend that Livingston County reduces services or increases taxes to fund these new Medicaid services, Livingston County becomes less competitive with comparable counties in other states which may be positioned to lure businesses and citizens from New York; and WHEREAS, over the past two years, Livingston County has seen Medicaid costs growing significantly and anticipates that further expansion of Medicaid programs and services with a local financial share will only add to local budgetary constraints; and WHEREAS, A.8702/S4892, legislation pending in the New York State Senate and Assembly, would eliminate the local financial share of additional program enhancements under the Medicaid program; and WHEREAS, this would include the proposals advanced as part of the SFY2001-2002 Executive Budget, including the Medicaid Buy-In program for disabled workers and coverage for specific women=s health care treatment, both which carry a local financial share; and WHEREAS, this legislation protects Livingston County taxpayers by ensuring that when the state enacts new programs and services under the Medicaid program, that the funding will be provided from sources other than the Livingston County budget; now, therefore, be it RESOLVED, that Livingston County supports A.8702/S4892 and calls upon the Governor and the State Legislature to support this legislation and enact it into law; and be it further RESOLVED, that the Clerk of the Board is hereby authorized to transmit a certified copy of this resolution to JUNE 27, 2001 131

OTHER BUSINESS 1. Discussion of Weighted Voting
Chairman Merrick stated that the 2000 U.S. Census figures have been finalized. The new census figures could impact the weighted voting system, and the Chairman asked County Attorney David Morris to comment.
The County Attorney stated that every 10 years when there is a new census, this Board has to readjust the weighted vote based on the results of census. Before a consultant can be hired to do the statistical analysis, the Board must determine if any group populations are going to be excluded from the gross census figures, i.e. inmates in the County Jail and Groveland and Livingston State Correctional facilities, students living in dormitories at SUNY Geneseo, and students at Elim Bible School in Lima, New York. The County Attorney stated that inmates and students were omitted from the current weighted vote, however, the nursing home populations were included. At the time the Board excluded those populations, there was case law to support the decision. Since that time, the County Attorney advised the Board that case law had changed and does not support the exclusion of any population from the weighted vote. The County Attorney would like consensus from the Board whether or not group populations will be excluded from the gross census figures.
Caledonia Supervisor Layland, commented that those towns that have group populations certainly have to make decisions based on situations unique to the town itself, and he believes the group populations should be included in the weighted vote structure.
Geneseo Supervisor Kennison concurred with Mr. Layland. He stated he has discussed this matter with the Chairman of the Board. Mr. Kennison commented that the students have been taking a more active role in life in Livingston County, and he would be in favor of adding the group populations to the weighted vote structure.
JULY 25, 2001 161 Chairman Merrick stated that the inmates in the State prison in Groveland, New York, were never included and after reviewing the information from the last time the weighted vote was calculated, he believes the inmates should be included. He also stated he is concerned about the possibility of being challenged if the Board decides not to include those group populations.
The County Administrator stated the important issue is whether or not this Board would be legally challenged due to a decision they made excluding the group populations.
Chairman Merrick asked for a show of hands as to how many Supervisors would not support using the gross census figures for the weighted vote analysis. There was not a show of hands. Chairman stated that the County Attorney and County Administrator will get proposals from consultants and the Finance & Administration Committee will be kept apprised of this issue.
Livonia Supervisor Wahl asked for the population in the dormitories and prisons. The County Administrator stated there are over 3,000 students in the SUNY Geneseo dormitories, approximately 1,500 prisoners and 300 in the Elim Bible School.
2. The County Administrator announced that Dave McNamara and Paul Miles of the Bureau of Architecture and Engineering Facilities Planning of the NYS Department of Health, will be conducting a site visit on July 26, 2001 and an informational meeting has been scheduled at 4:00 p.m. in Room 205 of the Government Center to evaluate and discuss their findings.

The County Administrator stated he is concerned that the State Legislature will not get to the issues that concern county government during this budget process. There is no incentive now. There are a number of issues that continue to impact counties. The County Administrator stated he has begun working on the 2002 County Budget, and it is important for the county to take care of our constituents and be responsible. The State AUGUST 8, 2001 167 Legislature has not even addressed the grant programs nor the economic development issues. The County Administrator explained that the County continues to spend money on existing contracts without any guarantee that we will receive the revenues budgeted. The State Legislature should be starting to develop the 2002 budget. The County Administrator urged the Board of Supervisors to read the NYSAC Weekly Wire dated August 3, 2001 (on file). Geneseo Supervisor Kennison mentioned that the Genesee Valley Council on the Arts is concerned about meeting payroll, and this budget situation could be catastrophic to the Council.

192 REPORT OF THE SUPERVISORS’ PROCEEDINGS OTHER BUSINESS 1. County Administrator Dominic F. Mazza commented on the status of the 2002 State and County Budgets. He stated that it has been a challenging process. The Finance & Administration Committee met and made decisions to freeze non-essential spending to control costs and to borrow money for the Animal Control Facility that was originally supposed to be paid for through cash appropriations. The tragic event of September 11, 2001 on the World Trade Center and Pentagon is making the situation even worse. The County Administrator is hopeful that the County will finish the year in the black. He thanked the Department Heads for their on-going cooperation. The sales tax money that was held back from the schools has been swallowed up by double-digit Medicaid increases of $2.6 million over a three-year period, and we are projecting a $700,000 increase next year along with a decline in IGT funding and a decrease in sales tax revenue. The County Administrator stated that he and the Finance & Administration Committee want to be fair to the employees and compensate them fairly and not punish them for a problem that is out of our control. The County Administrator stated that NYSAC continues to lobby for TANF (Temporary Assistance to Needy Families) funds which provides money for Social Services Programs for children. The County Administrator stated that Livingston County is currently facing a double-digit tax increase. Herkimer County is facing a 50% tax increase. The County Administrator emphasized the fact that the economic impact of the terrorist attack is almost mind boggling. It is hard to imagine the amount of income tax receipts that fund the State, and there has been minimal business activity in Manhattan which is resulting in rapidly declining revenues. Even without a recession, businesses in New York City are leaving and going to New Jersey and Connecticut. It is expected that it will take at least 18 months to clean up the area of the World Trade Center and three years to build it again; therefore, the State is looking at five years before a recovery will be made, and it is unlikely that businesses will wait that long. The County Administrator mentioned that US Air airline of Syracuse has laid off senior employees, and it is expected that more layoffs will occur in the airline industry. The County Administrator stated that any money from the State for TANF, CHIPS, probation aid, law enforcement, a portion of cellular surcharge, indigent parolees, early intervention is in jeopardy. As the State’s revenues decline, there seems to be no willingness by the State to reduce services, and the costs of which will get shoved onto localities. The County Administrator concluded that the situation reminded him of John Adams at the Continental Congress of 1977, reminding his fellow members of congress that in adopting the Declaration of Independence and starting a revolution, they were going to have to offend someone. The County is at this point and we have to do what we need to do and no doubt will be making uncomfortable decisions as we prepare the 2002 County Budget. Chairman Merrick concurred that the Board will have hard decisions to address for the 2002 County Budget. 2. Chairman Merrick announced that the first draft of the contract between the County and the Livingston County Coalition of Patrol Services (COPS) has been sent to the attorney representing the County and then will be forwarded to the Union’s attorney for signature. 3. Chairman Merrick announced that four Supervisors had lunch at the Geneseo Skilled Nursing Facility today. Leicester Supervisor Moore commented that the lunch was good and the dietary department seemed to be operating satisfactorily. Sparta Supervisor Schuster stated that lunch was terrific and thanked the County Administrator, Chairman of the Board, Director of Office for the Aging Kaaren Smith, and everyone involved for resolving the issues in the dietary department of the Geneseo Skilled Nursing Facility.

PUBLIC HEARING – 1:35 P.M. The Public Hearing to receive comments on the Local Law No. A – 2001 Authorizing the County of Livingston to Sell 1.5 Acres on Millennium Drive to the Livingston County Chamber of Commerce, was called in accordance with the notice published in the official newspapers.
Chairman Merrick asked County Attorney David Morris to comment.
The County Attorney explained that adopting this law is part of the process to authorize the County to sell 1.5 acres at private sale to the Livingston County Chamber of Commerce. At the last Board of Supervisors’ meeting, the Board declared the property surplus. The Board will have to approve the contract once the law is filed with the State. The contract sale price for 1.5 acres is $40,000 per acre. The Chamber of Commerce is responsible for all costs associated with sale, survey, and municipal requirements for subdivision of land. There will be a covenant in the contract restricting the use of the property for office space only.
The Chairman asked if anyone wished to speak regarding the Public Hearing.
Steve Newvine, President of the Livingston County Chamber of Commerce, acknowledged several board members in the audience as well as Messrs. Brooks and Schuster. He stated this property will provide the Chamber an opportunity to build a state-of-the-art visitor center to help promote tourism and also to provide housing for the Business Education Alliance. He thanked the Board for their support in the past and requested the Board support this local law.
The Chairman stated that the Public Hearing will remain open until the end of the meeting.

OTHER BUSINESS 1. The Chairman of the Board requested that all Personnel & Employee Relations Committee members meet after the Board meeting in Room 303B.
OCTOBER 24, 2001 227 2. County Administrator Dominic F. Mazza provided a 2002 County Budget update. The County Administrator stated that the Finance & Administration Committee met on 10/22/01 and unanimously approved the 2002 Proposed County Budge, and it will now be referred to the Board of Supervisors for approval. The County Administrator stated that for several months the County has been discussing the financial hardships we will be facing in 2002 and especially now with the economy falling due to the terrorists attacks of September 11, 2001. The County Administrator reported he began the 2002 budget process with a 19% property tax rate increase; however, he is now proposing a 7.5% increase. This is the first property tax increase in 6 years while the County continues to maintain its attractive 7% sales tax--one of two counties in western New York. The County Administrator stated that the property tax increase is due to a $700,000 increase in local share for Medicaid program coupled with large increases over the last three years, the loss of CHIPS O & M, the phasing out of IGT funding, and sales tax estimates are flat compared to last year. The proposed budget does include additional funding for the COPS program, an additional home delivered meal program, an additional Probation Officer to monitor the new state-mandated PINS program changing the age from 16 to 18. He also stated that $731,000 was removed from the Highway Budget. He stated that the budget does include existing infrastructure fund commitments for the Geneseo Gateway project, Dansville Airport, and sewer inceptor in Avon. He also mentioned he is working with the Town of Geneseo to restructure the debt for the Gateway project over a longer period of time which will allow $180,000 to be used for other needs. The County Administrator thanked the Department Heads for their help and support during this budget process. He stated he made some cuts in the equipment line and the purchase of vehicles and other expenditures will be reviewed mid-year. The County Administrator announced that the 2002 Budget Workshop will be held on October 31, 2001 at 10:00 a.m. in the Board of Supervisors Assembly Room. Ossian Supervisor Jaeger questioned why such a large amount of money was removed from the Highway Department budget. The County Administrator stated that there was quite a lengthy discussion on this matter, and the department will be taking a different approach as to the materials to be used on road projects for the coming year. It was noted that for the past 6 years, the Highway Department has made tremendous strides in improving the County roads. Geneseo Supervisor Kennison thanked the County Administrator and staff for their hard work in preparing this budget. The County Administrator stated that other counties are well into double digit tax increases and laying off employees. He is thankful we are not at that point, and attributed it to the staff working hard everyday to cut costs and for anticipating what could be coming and making adjustments along the way. The County Administrator stated he is pleased with the outcome of the budget. Avon Supervisor Daley thanked the County Administrator, the Finance & Administration Committee and everyone involved in the budget process for keeping the Board of Supervisors informed these past few months of the status of the budget. Caledonia Supervisor Layland, Chairman of Finance & Administrator Committee, stated that the County cannot afford to use any more fund balance. Chairman Merrick thanked the County Administrator for preparing the 2002 Proposed County Budget.
3. Mt. Morris Supervisor Olverd stated he reviewed the Facility Option Study Committee Minutes of 10/11/01 which outlined the determination of one or two locations, build new or renovate, bed count, and location for the nursing facilities. The minutes reflected one location, to build new, bed count to range from 270-300 and the majority of Supervisors voted in favor of the location to be in Mt. Morris. Mr. Olverd asked if the Board would agree to a straw poll vote on these four issues. Livonia Supervisor Wahl questioned the purpose of the meeting on 10/30/01 announced during this meeting under communications. Frank Bassett responded the purpose of the meeting is to hear the final options from Sara Hartman, of Hartman Associates, the firm that conducted the study. There was also some information that needed to be incorporated into the final report for reimbursement purposes. Mr. Wahl asked whether it would be beneficial to hear the final options before taking a straw poll vote. Chairman Merrick reminded the Board that the Board operates under a committee system and suggested to wait for the Health Committee to make a final recommendation to the Board of Supervisors. Lima Supervisor Bassage, Chairman of the Health Committee, stated he would like to put off this straw poll vote until the Board has had the opportunity to hear discussion that took place throughout this process. Geneseo Supervisor Kennison agreed to a straw poll vote to see which way the Board is leaning and to give the Facility Option Steering Committee some direction. Mt. Morris Supervisor Olverd stated that the Supervisors have been given a copy of the Facility 228 REPORT OF THE SUPERVISORS’ PROCEEDINGS Options Study. Caledonia Supervisor Layland stated he would like to hear the final report that will include some costs which may have a bearing on how he votes. Ossian Supervisor Jaeger agreed that the Supervisors do not have enough information at this time. Leicester Supervisor Moore, Vice Chairman of the Board, stated he agrees to taking a straw poll vote and we should continue to move forward. Conesus Supervisor Avery agreed to take a straw poll vote to show what way the Board is leaning. Avon Supervisor Daley stated that this is probably one of the largest issues this Board has had to face, and he welcomes the opportunity to express his opinion. Mt. Morris Supervisor Olverd stated that the County has spent approximately $110,000 on this study that took more than 18 months to prepare and there are definitely four Board members going off this Board effective 12/31/01, and he believes this issue should be resolved. York Supervisor Deming agreed that the Board did not have all the information needed such as the advantages and disadvantages of each location, the economics, costs, water and sewer issues, what town could offer the “best deal”, etc. Chairman Merrick again stated he believes the Board lacks pertinent information to make a decision at this time. Avon Supervisor Daley stated that he has had experience on projects similar to this, and he believes it would be beneficial to determine the site selection which would assist in determining the type of building needed. The County Administrator stated that once the Board determines a site, a feasibility study will be needed to determine financial caps for construction. Geneseo Supervisor Kennison again suggested to take a straw poll vote on the location of a new nursing facility and to express whether the Supervisor believes he/she does not have enough information. Mt. Morris Supervisor Olverd stated that the straw poll vote will be to determine whether a new nursing home facility with a range of 270-300 beds will be built in Mt. Morris or Geneseo, and if you do not have enough information, to please state so.
The straw poll vote was called as follows: Location in Mt. Morris – Avon, Caledonia, Conesus, Leicester, Lima, Mt. Morris, N. Dansville, Nunda, Portage, West Sparta Location in Geneseo – Geneseo More Information Needed – Groveland, Ossian Undecided – Livonia, Springwater, York Absent – Sparta
Mt. Morris Supervisor Olverd thanked the Board of Supervisors for their cooperation in taking a straw poll vote.
4. The County Administrator stated that the Dansville Castle project probably will not be funded, and the Finance & Administration Committee met and determined the property will be sold at auction. The County Administrator stated this was the third application to the State for grant funding for this project, and the County did everything in its power to make the project successful. County Clerk James Culbertson of the Dansville Development Corporation, stated that on behalf of the Corporation, he deeply appreciates what the Board of Supervisors and the County has done to try to bring this project to fruition.
5. Lima Supervisor Bassage announced he sold his house in Lima, and he will be closing on his house 10/31/01. As a result, he will be moving from Lima, and he will be submitting a resignation to the Lima Town Board effective November 1, 2001. Mr. Bassage stated he has enjoyed the experience of working with the Board of Supervisors and thanked the staff.

PUBLIC HEARING – 1:35 P.M. The Chairman opened the Public Hearing to receive comments on the 2002 Proposed Livingston County Budget in accordance with the notice published in the official newspapers.
Chairman Merrick requested County Administrator Dominic F. Mazza to come forward to make a presentation on the 2002 Proposed County Budget.
The County Administrator thanked the Board of Supervisors, Finance & Administration Committee, Department Heads for their time an efforts during this challenging budget process. The County Administrator reviewed the Proposed 2002 County Budget using a Power Point presentation and handouts (on file). In summary, the total budget appropriation is $89,043,505 with a tax rate of $7.50 an increase of 7.5% over 2001 tax rate of $6.98. Livingston County still maintains its 7% sales tax. When the County Administrator started the budget process, the tax rate increase was 19%. He stated the tax increase is attributed to the sliding economy and reduced sales tax receipts and possible reduction in State revenues as a result of the terrorists attack of September 11th. The Proposed County Budget includes salaries for all personnel, while we are eliminating some vacant positions, an 18% health insurance increase, significant increases for public safety employees in order to stem the tide of employees leaving to go to other municipalities, three grant funded School Resource Officers and three patrol officers, one additional Probation Officer for the PINS program, an additional home delivered meal route, increase in funding for chemical dependency and mental health services, a reduction of $730,000 in the Highway budget (including a loss of State CHIPS O&M totaling $230,000), and a modification in the payment schedule to the Town of Geneseo for the Gateway Project. Workers compensation continues to be a challenge, and we are striving to reduce the number of incidents. The County Administrator explained that he expects to close 2001 with a surplus, and he wants to maintain a strong fund balance to offset any unforeseen losses, and to protect our credit rating. The County Administrator emphasized that this is the first tax increase in 6 years. The County Administrator thanked the Chairman for the opportunity to present the Proposed 2002 County Budget.
Chairman Merrick asked if anyone wished to speak regarding the Public Hearing and to come forward and sign in at the podium.

The County Administrator thanked the Board of Supervisors, Finance & Administration Committee, Department Heads for their time an efforts during this challenging budget process. The County Administrator reviewed the Proposed 2002 County Budget using a Power Point presentation and handouts (on file). In summary, the total budget appropriation is $89,043,505 with a tax rate of $7.50 an increase of 7.5% over 2001 tax rate of $6.98. Livingston County still maintains its 7% sales tax. When the County Administrator started the budget process, the tax rate increase was 19%. He stated the tax increase is attributed to the sliding economy and reduced sales tax receipts and possible reduction in State revenues as a result of the terrorists attack of September 11th. The Proposed County Budget includes salaries for all personnel, while we are eliminating some vacant positions, an 18% health insurance increase, significant increases for public safety employees in order to stem the tide of employees leaving to go to other municipalities, three grant funded School Resource Officers and three patrol officers, one additional Probation Officer for the PINS program, an additional home delivered meal route, increase in funding for chemical dependency and mental health services, a reduction of $730,000 in the Highway budget (including a loss of State CHIPS O&M totaling $230,000), and a modification in the payment schedule to the Town of Geneseo for the Gateway Project. Workers compensation continues to be a challenge, and we are striving to reduce the number of incidents.

The County Administrator emphasized that this is the first tax increase in 6 years. The County Administrator thanked the Chairman for the opportunity to present the Proposed 2002 County Budget.

RESOLUTION NO. 2001-435. AUTHORIZING THE CONSOLIDATION OF THE EXISTING COUNTY OPERATED NURSING HOMES, COMPRISING 314 BEDS, INTO A SINGLE-NEW HOUSEHOLD FACILITY TO BE CONSTRUCTED ON LAND AT THE CAMPUS IN THE TOWN OF MOUNT MORRIS, NEW YORK WHEREAS, the Chairman of the Board appointed a Steering Committee in March 2000 to participate in reviewing the Facility Options Study, and WHEREAS, pursuant to Res. No. 2000-079 adopted on February 23, 2000, the Livingston County Board of Supervisors contracted with Hartman & Associates to conduct a study to develop long-range options for the Livingston County Skilled Nursing Facilities and Related Services, and WHEREAS, Hartman & Associates and D. B. Gardner Architects have prepared a preliminary design and cost estimates, and the Facility Option Steering Committee reviewed the preliminary design and cost estimates, and DECEMBER 19, 2001 277
WHEREAS, pursuant to Res. No. 2001-391 adopted on November 14, 2001, the Livingston County Board of Supervisors contracted with Bovis Lend Lease to review the preliminary design and cost estimates of Hartman Associates and D. B. Gardner Architects, to prepare cost estimates and review as-built drawings for the Geneseo and Mt. Morris sites, and prepare a conceptual cost analysis report, and WHEREAS, Bovis Lend Lease has prepared the costs estimates and reports, and WHEREAS, the Facility Option Steering Committee met on December 7, 2001 to review the cost estimates and reports prepared by Bovis Lend Lease in order to make a recommendation to the Livingston County Board of Supervisors regarding the County Nursing Facilities, now, therefore, be it RESOLVED, that the Livingston County Board of Supervisors authorizes consolidation of the existing County- operated nursing homes, comprising 314 beds, into a single-new household facility and to begin construction on land at the County Campus in the Town of Mt. Morris, New York, and it is further RESOLVED, that the new facility will have approximately 264 to 288 beds in a “household” configuration which is a type of nursing facility that eliminates the traditional institutional layout, characterized by long corridors lined with resident rooms, and centralizes smaller groups of residents within smaller units, and it is further RESOLVED, that the County Administrator is directed to begin the Certificate of Need process with the New York State Department of Health for said project and to prepare a Request for Proposal to secure a construction management firm. Dated at Geneseo, New York December 19, 2001
Chairman Merrick authorized Privilege of the Floor to Geneseo Supervisor Kennison.
Mr. Kennison highlighted newspapers articles that have appeared in the Livingston County News, which reported the decision had already been made and the placement of a new Skilled Nursing Facility would be in Mt. Morris. He continued that it would seem, in this County, there is a perception that we make decisions in committee; we simply rubber stamp and pass on these decisions, rather than collectively reviewing and deciding as a Legislative whole. We can either greatly reinforce or utterly dispel this notion here today. Mr. Kennison stated he is requesting further thought and deliberation on this issue. He continued that he is glad the public is here, noting there are many in attendance from Mt. Morris. He continued stating he feels there are two criteria to base the choice of location the decision should first be based on quality of care and secondly the fiscal responsibility to the taxpayers of this County and New York State.
Mr. Kennison then referenced a Clarion article which he stated is implying this decision process is about Mt. Morris versus Geneseo and which Community needs the facility more and which does not. Mr. Kennison stated he would like to address the issues of fiscal responsibility, quality of care and the needs of the community.
Mr. Kennison referred to the Bovis study, which many members of Committee are familiar with. He stated that in the report it would cost $1 million less to build in Mt. Morris. This would be valid if accepting that the facilities need to be built on existing County property and that the Geneseo Facility would have to be torn down. When Bovis did the report, it was with the assumption that it would be necessary to demolish the current building in Geneseo and reroute all of the utilities, including sewer and water to the cost of $715,339; all of this in order to build a parking lot. Mr. Kennison stated he had raised the idea to the Committee that it would be cost effective to contact the adjacent land owner to purchase additional property for the purpose of parking and traffic routing. He stated he feels we went ahead to vote anyway without reconsidering the cost effectiveness of this plan. Mr. Kennison stated he has since spoken to the landowner who would be more than willing to talk to us. The other issue concerning traffic is entering and exiting onto and off Route 20A, which seems to, in some minds, indicate that Geneseo traffic is bad and Mt. Morris is good. Mr. Kennison stated that at a recent Route 63 Corridor meeting, it was established that Route 36 is the worst road in County with very serious traffic problems, including the high volume of truck traffic and hills causing blind spots.
Mr. Kennison stated the Bovis report reflects essentially both costs projections are about the same with a 1% difference which is pretty insignificant, and he feels the public should be aware of that.
278 REPORT OF THE SUPERVISORS’ PROCEEDINGS
Mr. Kennison then stated on the issue of quality of care. He feels there has not been enough discussion on this matter as of yet. This is not to say there has not been many meetings held, rather it is an issue of not enough questions being answered. He continued stating we paid $119,102.75 for a comprehensive study done by Hartman Associates and then have ignored it. Mr. Kennison reviewed the methods of the study and addressed the Industry Standards utilized for this report. He continued that the average length of stay is 5 months and although the length of stay in nursing homes is much shorter, the numbers are actually up. The issue of critical care and the quickest available medical center/hospital were then briefly discussed.
Mr. Kennison stated that he has had an opportunity to speak with Mr. Olverd who has addressed some of the concerns that he has. Mr. Kennison stated that although he is not a fan of doing Committee work in front of the Board of Supervisors, he feels that there is a role for the Board to seek further information before making this decision.
Mr. Kennison stated that to continue on the issue of quality of care he wondered if the various emergency response people were contacted for their input. The committee never discussed any of the issues of emergency response. He continued that ambulance/fire issues could be a major factor in the decision process. He reported that there have been 127 ambulance calls at Geneseo facility and 110 at Mt. Morris. Mr. Kennison stated that we have not invited the key people from the emergency response companies for their input. If we adopt this resolution, we are going to put further responsibility on the local ambulance crews, and he stated he feels we should have their input.
Mr. Kennison continued to address the catastrophic possibility of a fire at the Mt. Morris site and the problems that may occur in the winter. He stated this is an issue that we have not discussed fully and is something that should be undertaken in Committee. Mr. Kennison stated that it does not cost any money to solve this, just an extended period of time.
Mr. Kennison stated that in regard to the issue of basic fairness to both communities involved, he would like to acknowledge his respect for Jim Olverd. They have both discussed their view points and the various facts of both reports. Mr. Kennison stated that before this proposal comes before the Board of Supervisors, it must contain a plan for the vacated properties for either choice. He continued saying that is not what we did. On behalf of Geneseo, it is important for him to be able to inform his community of some assurances on this process. He continued to share some of his vision about what he sees as positive. The Geneseo Facility sits in the middle of our commercial district, and although the Chamber of Commerce has expressed concern, the vision process has not been a part of this proposal. Mr. Kennison stated that he can imagine a Nursing home that overlooks a YMCA with other family services and a Department of Health where the residents could see the youth at play at the soccer field below. We have many things left to do before we commit to a $40 million project. We have not finished work until all questions are answered.
Mr. Kennison stated he knows the rules and it is possible to object to unanimous consent. He feels that the general consensus of the public is that the Board of Supervisors tend to make all of the controversial votes at holiday time, he hopes this will not be yet another fast Supervisor vote at holiday time.
Mr. Kennison states he is proposing a compromise and feels the options are to stay here and do the committee work and vote, or we could have a concept approval to set aside this resolution temporarily and instruct the Committee to address the emergency response issues and the vacant land concerns.
Mr. Kennison thanked the Members of the Board and those in attendance.
Chairman Merrick offered the opportunity for Mr. Olverd to respond.
Mr. Olverd responded, in regard to fiscal responsibility, it will cost $1.2 million less in Mt. Morris than Geneseo and the finances have to be considered part of the quality of care. In this matter, you have to acknowledge where your workforce is located; over 2 to 1 are from the southern part of the County. A good business practice is to put your business close to the customer and this is also the case of those utilizing our County homes with a large portion also coming from the southern part of the County. If we put a new facility in the Geneseo, closer to the area of some of the private facilities homes in Livonia and Lima, it is a good possibility it would hurt their facilities. A new facility would DECEMBER 19, 2001 279
be much more appealing when location is not an issue. This would additional harm our economy in Livingston County. Mr. Olverd stated that quality of care favors Mt. Morris based on industry standards, medical services, health care professionals. Mr. Olverd stated that there are problems regarding the ambulance and fire emergency response that need to be resolved and some of those problems can be addressed by emergency medical staff. There is an emergency response plan in place. He feels that there is a need to review that no matter what happens.
Mr. Olverd stated he would like to see the resolution go forward and would rather not discuss the concept approach. We can address all of these issues now or later, but this resolution should move forward.
Chairman Merrick asked if a representative of Hartman Associates would like to come forward to speak on the results of their study in comparison to the Bovis Report.
Sara Hartman stated this has been a difficult decision to make for the board. She continued to explain the rating system used by Hartman and the choice of the Geneseo site for the construction site of a new nursing facility. Although Mt. Morris may be $1 million lower, given that the construction costs are approximately a wash in the overall scheme, Geneseo would have a slight lead still by satisfying its close proximity to medical and health facilities. She stated the topography of Mt. Morris introduced challenges and difficulties. Geneseo allows a more efficient design. The Geneseo site by our approach of ranking the two, has a slight lead and the decision will be the choice of the Board of Supervisors.
Mark Balling stated he would like to clarify the main differences between the sites. In Geneseo, without considering land purchase, the difference of $1 million was around the demolition costs and construction of a parking lot. He stated additionally that the Committee did not want to move the facility closer to Route 20A. All things considered, the cost is a wash between the two facilities.
Mr. Layland then spoke and stated that $380,000 – $400,000 at 1% is a big deal, and for the record all Committee meetings are open to the public. Time does cost money, and he feels we should go ahead at this point. Additionally, he stated that fire trucks on Route 20A are just as detrimental as they would be on the Campus in Mt. Morris.
Mr. Layland read a recap from the Bovis report. He continued stating he felt running nursing homes as business is a must. He stated we must be able to compete today. He stated that we were tired; tired of beating a dead horse to death. Outgoing members have been privy to much information and for them not to be able to vote after 21 months of being informed would be ludicrous. A vote this year is imperative. Mr. Layland stated on the question of geography, he is in agreement with Mr. Olverd. He continued to recap that Geneseo is centrally located; however, the population of service is usually from the southern area of the county. Dansville Hospital is closer to Mt. Morris and Geneseo is closer to private nursing homes that we compete with. Mr. Layland stated we should not be looking at what is good for Geneseo or Mt. Morris but what is ultimately best for our County and the aging population.
