Board Letter
| 1.
| Budget: Next month we will review the instructional portion of the budget. This comprises by far the largest share and is where you will find most of the reductions needed to close the budget gap. Although budget numbers are still fluid at this point and we really don’t know how the legislature and governor’s office will settle things, we estimate that we started with a 2.1 million dollar budget gap. This was comprised of our estimated 1.2-1.3 million dollar roll over costs for wage, insurance and retirement increases. The Governors proposal was about an additional $885,000 expense. |
| |
| In looking at our traditional over estimate of expenses and underestimate of resources, Greg was able to fairly easily drop that down to about 1.4 million budget gap. It is these conservative estimates that allow us to fill our reserves each year.
|
| |
| Using $600,000 (up from $250,000 suggested last month) to pay a debt service expense, we were able to close the gap to about $800,000. This is the area that Jeff was asking about last night. This is a great way to use reserve money as it is a one time shot since the expense is coming off the following year anyways.
|
| |
| I have included the chart below to show you how we are closing the majority of the rest of the gap. It is through teaching reductions. Because our population is declining we are able to continue offering similar programs with fewer staff. We have tried very hard to reduce staff only through attrition, thus not destroying morale. It does make a difference when your staff knows we are committed to them and will do everything we can to make sure they don’t lose their job. Reductions this year will be made possible because of retirements, relocations due to spouses career, resignations to be with children and probationary teachers not making the grade. This last category will be discussed in more detail in February executive session when we complete our annual review of probationary staff.
|
| |
| Three of the positions are becoming available in the elementary buildings, one at the middle school and four at the high school. We will also not be replacing one administrative position (technology coordinator).

With these staffing reductions, we will be within $120,000 of closing the gap. While it might not be completely closed by February 12th, I expect it will be closed by the end of the month.
2. Lawsuit Update: I have not given you an update in this area in sometime. Interestingly not much has happened. Although the judge had said that all depositions of defendants (us) be completed by September 8th they still aren’t finished. I have not heard from our attorney and to be honest, I haven’t even been thinking about it much. I guess that’s probably healthy. I’ll try to give you an update every couple of months or if something pops up.
3. Facilities Update: I told you last week that I had met with Carl Thurneau of SED facilities planning while I was in Albany and he hoped to give me an answer soon. I made my weekly call to him yesterday. I had to leave a message as always and they promised he would get back to me as always.
4. Ginna: We had a joint school, town and county meeting yesterday to discuss the dispute with Ginna over assessment. Ginna has added a training center and firing range to their complex. The town has increased their assessment because of these additions. Ginna is also constructing a dry cask storage system for the spent nuclear rods. Newspaper accounts have placed a construction figure of 70 million dollars. Ginna’s position is that these are covered as part of the PILOT and should not be assessed. We hope to be able to resolve this through informal discussions. We still have about 5 years left on the current PILOT. The upside of all this is that when we do renegotiate we ought to be able to add another 100 million to the tax role. That will help to keep the tax rate stable over the long term.
5. Financial Report Explanation and OhioPyle gift: I do not yet have complete information on these two questions from last night’s Board meeting. I expect to be able to get them to you by next Friday’s letter.
6. IRS Mileage Rate: At last night’s Board meeting, a suggestion was made to change the wording of the mileage reimbursement policy to say, “At the current IRS rate”. The thought was that this would save having to change the resolution each time the IRS rate changed. Our clerk expressed concern that a specific rate was required and that simple saying “the current IRS rate” would not be sufficient. This morning Greg checked with our auditor, Ray Wager, who said that the new wording would be fine and was quite common.
7. Big Brothers/Big Sisters: On Tuesday, January 27th at Ontario Elementary School, Constellation Energy will be presenting a check for $7500 to the school and the Big Brothers-Big Sisters program at 3:30 p.m in the Library. This donation will allow OE to offer the Big Brothers-Big Sister program to Wayne students. Through the program, high school students will mentor elementary school students focusing on environmental projects. Sharon Miller from Constellation will present the check to Mike Pullen, Mr. Havens and the Executive Director of Big Brothers. Please let me know if you are able to attend. Snacks
and refreshments will be served.

Dear Wayne Central Staff,
At this time, the FDA, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and state partners have traced sources of Salmonella Typhimurium contamination to a plant owned by Peanut Corporation of America (PCA), which manufactures peanut butter and peanut paste—a concentrated product consisting of ground, roasted peanuts—that are both distributed to food manufacturers to be used as an ingredient in many commercially produced products including cakes, cookies, crackers, candies, cereal and ice cream. In addition, PCA peanut butter is distributed to and institutionally served in such settings as long-term care facilities, food service industries and private label food companies.
Since additional brands continue to be added to the recall list we have decided to remove all products containing peanut butter and peanut butter paste from our menus, a la carte and vending machines until we are confident that our products are safe from contamination.
Please note: The recall does not include USDA commodity peanut butter. In addition, we currently do not purchase any of the named brand products associated with the recall. We are simply taking precautions to ensure the safety of our children.
I have included a link below to the FDA website that has a searchable list of products and brands associated with the expanded PCA recall. Please feel free to share the information with our parents. This will assist in the determination if commercially-prepared or manufactured peanut butter/peanut paste-containing products (such as cookies, crackers, cereal, candy and ice cream) are subject to recall
.

Wayne Central School District follows all directives from USDA, the Department of Health and the NYSED. Please take rest in knowing the food served in Wayne Central adheres to the strictest safety codes at all times.
If you have any questions please feel free to contact me.
Sincerely,

TOWN COMPLEX – REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS (RFP) FOR THE ARCHITECTURAL SERVICES FOR THE EXPANSION OF THE TOWN COMPLEX
Councilwoman Hawkins-Mance stated if Council members did not have any recommendations/comments on the draft RFP presented on November 20, 2008, she would like to go ahead and submit the RFP. The Town Clerk will be supplied with a list of firms to mail Criteria Information to. The following was presented:
Request for Proposals for Architectural Services for the Expansion of the Town Complex
Over the past few years, the Town of Walworth has experienced significant population growth that was not anticipated in the original design of the current Town Complex built in 1992. The Town population in the year 2000 was 8402 according to released census figures. Since then the Town has experienced an annual growth of approximately 3%. Although expected to slow, the growth is expected to continue in a positive nature by all known predictors (family growth, home sales, urban to rural migration). This has caused the Town to struggle with Town Hall and Library space issues; therefore on August 16th, 2007, the Town Board formed a group titled the Town Complex Study Group. This group was formed to coordinate questions to put forth some ideas to the Town Board that would then go out to the general public regarding the need for more space.
The group initially met on August 29th, 2007 and began the process of interviewing Department Heads, Library personnel, Court staff and State Troopers regarding space problems they were currently experiencing, space problems they anticipated experiencing, and what they felt would be needed for space in the foreseeable future.
It was the group’s unanimous decision that the Town of Walworth definitely needs more space. The group felt that the current building the Town is occupying is a sufficient building for much of the uses the Town needs. This assumes that more efficient storage methodologies are implemented and maintained as routine process and procedure. It also assumes that the Library and Recreation Department are relocated. The vacated space will allow for more efficient rearrangement and utilization of the town complex for the remaining functions.
Therefore, in order to meet the demands of the Library and Recreation Department it is the recommendation of this committee that a “second” building be constructed for the combined use of the Recreation Department and the Library.
In discussions with other Towns in the area, it was found that there is significant advantage and synergy in locating the Library and Recreation Departments in close proximity to the main Town complex. However, it was also identified that having a separate building from Town business functions and especially Court functions is desirable from aspects of aesthetics and perceived public safety. It has been recommended that a building on the existing Town property, directly west of the existing Town complex be constructed. The recommended site directly west of the existing parking lot on the west side of Lorraine Drive would allow for synergy of functions with the existing complex. The new building would be constructed with a single main entrance. The Library would be created in an area built slab-on –grade. The Recreation Department will be located to the opposite side with common multifunctional space in between the two entities. The non-library space should have basement area which would house programmatic functional areas as well as infrastructural needs for the building (HVAC, electrical, hot water, etc). The need for basement space for storage and infrastructure needs was a critical discussion/shortcoming identified in other towns visited and the interviews therein with respective town officials. It should be noted that it is not the recommendation of this committee to create a complex “Rec Center” at this time. Having said that, the new building should be compatible for expansion of the Library as well as the Recreation areas to meet future unidentified needs so that the future Townspeople aren’t faced with the current situation of a building that is not functional or conducive to meet changing needs.
The purpose of this RFP is to identify an Architectural firm to assist in the preparation of preliminary conceptual documents, budgets, and presentation materials to assist the Town in its pursuit of these identified needs. The goal of the relationship shall be to provide the following deliverables:
1.
Provide basic conceptual design of a facility to house the Town Library and Recreation Department as identified by the Town Complex Study Group (as contained herein).
2.
Provide budgetary information in a format to assist the Town in the search of funds through grant applications and/or other funding sources.
3.
Provide interior and exterior artistic renderings of the conceptual design suitable for public and grant presentations.
4.
Participate in at least three scheduled public presentations.
5.
Work with Department Heads and Town Complex Committee to formulate conceptual layout of the building.
Responses to this RFP shall include:
1.
Documentation of experience with municipal projects
2.
Specific Library design experience
3.
List and qualifications of individuals to be directly involved with the project
4.
References
5.
Statement of availability to complete deliverables within six months.
6.
Narrative of how your firm proposes to approach and complete the Deliverables.
7.
Price structures for completing the deliverables as well as for incremental related work that has not been pre-identified.
8.
Experience with grants.
Written submissions for this RFP, original plus three (3) copies will be accepted at the Town Clerk’s office on or before Wednesday, January 21, 2009, at 5:00 P.M. Said submissions will be reviewed and then selected firms, including their proposed principles will be interviewed to assist the Town Complex Study Group in recommending a firm to the Town Board. All documents submitted with Architectural Firm proposals shall become property of the Town and not returned.

He also mentioned that a fee should be established for other interested parties who want to receive a copy of the Design Criteria. Council members requested that an electronic version be sent to them for review. Mr. Parrone will also include his recommendation of the fee/charge for the Design Criteria.
RE-ESTABLISH THE PARK MASTER PLAN COMMITTEE & THE TOWN COMPREHENSIVE PLAN COMMITTEE:
Supervisor Plant commented that he would be re-establishing the Park Master Plan Committee and the Town Comprehensive Plan Committee. If anyone is interested in joining these committees, please contact Supervisor Plant. Councilman Yale commented that he has been asked to chair the Town Comprehensive Plan Committee, which will meet half a dozen times over a 4 to 5 month period, starting late February, 2009. This committee will do a broad examination of the Town’s Master Plan. The last time this was done was six (6) years ago. Councilwoman Marini will chair the Parks Master Plan Committee doing the same thing; this will be a big commitment for us to make sure that we are looking at the whole scope of things into the future for the entire Town. Councilman Yale stated that the two committees will at some point intersect/interact as needed in order to be in harmony. Supervisor Plant commented that if anyone is interested, he would like to hear from them within the next couple of weeks.
BIDS FOR “SALE OF SURPLUS FIREWOOD LOGS”:
Supervisor Plant stated that there were no bids for the “Sale of Surplus Firewood Logs.” And at this time, Supervisor Plant would like authorization for the Highway Department to dispose of the firewood.
APPROVAL TO SIGN NEW YORK MUTUAL AID AND ASSISTANCE AGREEMENT FOR WATER/WASTEWATER PROVIDERS (NYWARN):

Mr. Borkhuis contacted the Town last fall and inquired whether or not Mr. Carey had received a permit. “At that time I was informed that he did not have a fill Permit; but with the help of Paul Russell, Town Engineer, Mr. Carey’s permit was approved. One of the conditions of the permit was that he would keep it leveled down, and grade and seed. This summer a lot of dirt that arrived from a construction company has just been sitting there. In addition to being an eye sore for me and the rest of the community, it is affecting the drainage on both sides of the road.” Mr. Borkhuis explained that he had spoken with Phil Williamson, Code Enforcement Officer, who explained that it was up to Norm Druschel, Building Inspector, to take care of this. Mr. Borkhuis asked that Council members go over to take a look and asked if they would like a mess like this next to their home year after year. Supervisor Plant stated that Phil Williamson did speak with him regarding this yesterday, and he was waiting for a copy of the fill permit from the Town Clerk. Councilwoman Marini inquired when the fill permit was issued; it was decided that it was before June, 2006. Councilwoman Hawkins-Mance requested that the Town Clerk expedite a copy to Phil Williamson; Councilwoman Marini and Councilwoman Hawkins-Mance requested copies as well. Mr. Borkhuis thanked the Town Council.
