Wisdom is knowing what to do next; virtue is doing it.” - - David Star Jordan
 
Greetings from Wayne Central School District. Below are some items of interest.
      
Newsletter:
 
1.   CSEA Negotiation Training – Neal Katz will be spending Friday evening and all day Saturday with our negotiating team to study the process of win-win negotiation. CSEA has a representative group; the district representatives are Frank Robusto, Mark Callahan, Michael Havens, Greg Atseff and Rick Johnson. Neal is from Syracuse University and worked with our WTA and the district at our last contract.
  
2.   Mid-Winter meeting - My mid-winter meeting in Albany proved quite informative. In the wake of the financial scandal at Rosyln, Comptroller Hevesi proposed some changes in the financial laws. This week we learned that the legislature expects to enact as law many of these items. Those changes include requiring Board members to get 6 hours of training in financial oversight, establishing an internal audit function in each school district (we already have one), Mandating a competitive (bidding) process for auditors, and increasing the scope of the audit. The Superintendent’s Council has been working with the legislature on this and generally supports the proposed legislation.
 
Incidentally, the company that was the accounting firm for Roslyn is dissolving. Apparently they lost almost all their client base and face some pretty harsh fines.
 
Greg reported last night on parts of the State budget however I do want to bring to your attention that the proposed additional $325 million in Sound Basic Education aid would come from the proposed video lottery terminals. The governor has suggested the money would be guaranteed even if the terminals don’t produce the expected funds. What I find interesting is that research suggesting lower middle class people make up the majority of gamblers. Creating this additional gambling opportunity appears to be a “steal from the poor, give to the schools” maneuver. While I wouldn’t complain about the aid I’m not sure if in the end society is better off.
 
3.   Building Project - It has been awhile since people have had a tour of the high school addition. I suggest you consider arriving early to the next Board meeting so we can take you through the new high school section. There is sheetrock up in many places and you can really begin to see how things are going to look.
 
4.   Trips - I approved an overnight wrestling trip to Sweet Home for this weekend. The wrestling team has done another outstanding job this year. I believe Mr. Freischlag does a nice job with these boys. He expects much from them but he gives much in return.
 
5.   Pertussis - Wayne Central has had several students (10) with confirmed cases of pertussis dating back to last summer. Recently a case was diagnosed in mid-January. The school physician has recommended that we send a reminder home to all parents noting that it has been confirmed in our school and community, what the symptoms are, and appropriate courses of actions.
 
6.   Audience question - Enclosed is my response to one of the audience questions last night. Next time I don't follow our procedures and my own advice will someone please kick me!
 
7.   Able - In an email to you earlier this week I told you that Mr. LaRuche's therapy dog jumped on one of our kindergarten students. The dog was being playful and it is not unusual for a puppy his age. However the parent was very upset. Mr. LaRuche has spoken with the parent as have Mr. Spring and myself. My most recent conversation with him occurred on Wednesday. The parent was very concerned about the safety of his child and the ability of an 80 pound dog to knock down and hurt a 40 pound child. I believe the parent is satisfied with my response to him but it is possible he would give you a call. We are concerned that Able is going through a jumping phase. We must make sure our children are safe and we would not want any accident to prevent Able from continuing to do great things for our children. Mr. LaRuche is taking some precautions in the office to control some of the surprise interactions between Able and the children. We feel comfortable that on a temporary basis this won't compromise Able's role but will prevent a reoccurrence of him jumping.
 
8.   Student Injury - On Thursday a middle school student ran into the wall in gym class breaking his wrist. Most of the wall area is protected by padding, however, this is one area that wasn't. The student is a great young man with supportive parents. I have asked Greg to include sufficient funds in the budget to pad the entire gym area.
 
9.   Ambulance Call – Ontario Elementary called an ambulance for a student on Friday (1/28) because of severe coughing and difficulty breathing.
 
10.   HS Phys EdOne of our high school phys ed teachers will be leaving at the end of this month. Mark Bunce failed to complete his coursework in a timely manner and will lose his certification. Mr. Blankenberg has made arrangements to cover both his teaching and coaching responsibilities.
 
11.   Parent Request for Tuition Payment - A parent has requested that we pay tuition for her son to attend a neighboring school. We have been battling with this parent for more than two years to get the son enrolled in school. He should currently be in 9th grade. Finally a PINS was filed. Now the parent wants him to go to Pal-Mac. I have denied her request for payment.
 
12.   Retirement Letters – We have received several letters of intent to retire at the end of this school year from staff members turning 55. They are John DonVito (HS Social Studies), Silva DonVito (FE), Jim Adamo (OE/special assignment ELA coach) and Deb Adamo (FE), Nancy Driscoll (MS Science), Joanne Beach (OP), Dave Scott (HS English). There may be more coming, however, the window for taking the local incentive closes soon. These long time staff members will be missed.
 
13.   Frank Urbanik Recognition – Many of you may be acquainted with Frank Urbanik in the community. For those who are not, I am attaching a newspaper article from the Wayne County Mail. The basketball team is recognizing him at next Saturday’s game. Frank is a man that has worked hard to overcome his disabilities and has been a person that the community and school has embraced. I am proud of our basketball team for recognizing his contributions.
 
14.   Ed Keirsbilck - A retired Wayne teacher that you may remember, passed away this morning. He was a history teacher at the middle school for 31 years. Details should be in the paper. I will pass along an email if I find out more.

Dear Mrs. Brown,
 
Thank you for your question regarding the district’s need to buy a plow truck if the Town does the plowing for the school district. The Town of Ontario provides a number of services for the school district, including free use of their facilities and salting/sanding of driveways. They do not however plow our parking lots or roadways. The new truck replaces a 1987 model that has given us good service but is worn out.
 
I hope this answers your question regarding the proposed purchase. Thank you for your interest in the school budget.
 
Sincerely,
 
 
 
Michael Havens

1.  SEQR: UNLISTED ACTION:

In regard to the SEQR review in connection with the Town Board's proposed action to purchaseand renovate the former Academy school building located at 3655 High Street in the Town of Walworth, being tax account nos. 63114-15-643351 and 63114-15-654378 (which was later converted to a 28-unit apartment building and is now unoccupied and in a dilapidated condition) (hereinafter referred to as the "Academy Building"), the review included the review of the Full Environmental Assessment Form dated December 16, 2004, which was circulated to members of the Town Board on December 16, 2004, the Academy Street Building Re-use Study, dated December 2, 2004, and the amended report dated January 20, 2005, prepared by Clark Patterson Associates, and various records and reports filed in the past with the Town, Councilman Yale moved that the Town Board declare the action to be an unlisted action.

 Roll call vote:     Supervisor Guelli  Aye
          Councilman Keyes  Aye
          Councilman Maciuska  Aye
          Councilwoman Marini  Aye
         Councilman Yale  Aye
   Motion carried.
 
2.  NEGATIVE DECLARATION:
  Motion by Councilman Yale that the proposed action is one that will not have a significant impact on the environment and that a negative declaration be declared because after    reviewing the Full Environmental Assessment Form, dated December 16, 2004, and the  evaluation of all possible impacts set forth therein, reviewing the Academy Street Building
 

I.  Re-use Study, dated December 2, 2004, and the amended report of January 20, 2005 prepared by Clark Patterson Associates, various records and reports filed in the past with the Town, And all the critera as set forth in 6 NYCRR Part 617.7(c) to determine whether the acquisition, renovation and use as proposed of the Academy Building will result in a


I.   Re-use Study, dated December 2, 2004, and the amended report of January 20, 2005 prepared by Clark Patterson Associates, various records and reports filed in the past with the Town, And all the critera as set forth in 6 NYCRR Part 617.7(c) to determine whether the acquisition, renovation and use as proposed of the Academy Building will result in a
   significant impact on the environment. Having reviewed all the facts concerning the proposed acquisition, renovation and use of the Academy Building and a hard look being made by the Town Board at all possible environmental impacts that the proposed acquisition, renovation
and use of the Academy Building may have on the environment, the Board finds:
(1)   there will not be a substantial adverse change in existing air quality, ground or surface water quality or quantity, traffic or noise. In regard to possible increased traffic, recent past traffic studies which have been conducted of the area indicate an adequate system and it is expected that traffic will be less than when the premises was previously used as a school or an apartment complex, except on rare occasions when an activity may result in exceeding past experience for a short period of time (for a few hours at the most), which will only have a very small impact on the environment. Also in regard to noise levels, the acquisition, renovation and use of the Academy Building will result in less noise than experienced when the building was used as a school.
(2)   there will not be a substantial increase in solid waste production in
       comparison to the prior uses of the Academy Building.
(3)   there is no evidence of substantial increase in potential erosion, flooding, leaking or drainage problems based upon all information available to the Town and reviewed by Town employees including records on file with the Town.
(4)   there is a small to moderate impact on municipal facilities and services, such as Police and fire protection; however, existing capacities are sufficient to handle projected demand.
(5)   there is no significant conflict with the Walworth community's
       current plans or goals as officially approved, adopted or as proposed.
As a matter of fact, the proposed action will help satisfy current demand for
recreational and educational services. In regard to recreational services, the Parks and Recreation Master Plans Report, dated 2000 and 2001, due to an increase in young families, indicates an increased need for programs in the 6-20 year age bracket.
(6)   there is no evidence of any impairment of the environmental characteristics of a Critical Environmental Area as designated pursuant to Subdivision 617.14(g) of the SEQR Regulations since there is no Critical Environmental Area within the project which is the subject of the proposed action.
(7)   the proposed action will have no impairment of the character or quality of
important historical, archaeological, architectural, aesthetics resources or existing community or neighborhood character. That all reports and information in the Town's possession indicate no such impacts and there will be no impairment of the community or neighborhood character and utilizing the existing building represents an excellent opportunity to maintain the historically significant Academy Building.
(8)   the proposed action will not cause a significant change in the use or intensity of use of land including agricultural, open spaces or recreational sources or in its capacity to support existing uses and as a matter of fact, because of the location of the property, the action will not have impact at all on agriculture, will preserve the present open spaces as shown by the plan and some of the open space will be used for recreational uses such as basketball and tennis and one of the main uses within the Academy Building will be for recreational purposes.
(9)  there will not be a substantial encouragement to attract a large number of people to the place for more than a few days compared to the number of people who would come to the place absent of the action in that the prior uses of the Academy Building were of a school and apartment complex.
(10)   that upon the action being adopted, there will be no impairment of historical,
archeological, wildlife or natural resources based upon all information within the knowledge of the Town that has been gathered in the past.
(11)  the proposed action has no impact whatsoever on the community's energy supply and as a matter of fact, it is projected that the requirement will be of less energy to be consumed than the previous apartment complex within the Academy Building;
(12)   the proposed action will not have any impact on public health and as a matter of fact, will have a positive influence on public health by reason of proposed recreational activities plus as a result of the use of various meeting rooms, there is a potential for more educational knowledge concerning health issues to be disseminated to the public.
(13)   there are no changes in two or more elements of the environment, which together would have a significant impact on the environment, even if alone they would not.
(14)   all such possible known impacts on the environment have been explored in depth and if as a result of future uses of the Academy Building, other than the planned uses or uses known at this time by the Town Board, the Town Board will again study any impacts and take steps to mitigate them.
