Notice of Public Hearing
Village of Scottsville
PLEASE TAKE NOTICE that a Public Hearing will be held by the Village of Scottsville Board of
Trustees on Tuesday, April 14, 2015 at 7:30 PM, at the Wheatland Municipal Building, 22 Main Street,
Scottsville, New York to review and adopt the 2015-2016 Tentative Budget.
A copy of the Tentative Budget is available at the Office of the Village Clerk, where it may be
inspected by any person during office hours. The proposed annual compensation for the Mayor is
$11,736.00, for Deputy Mayor $4,559.50, and for each Trustee $3,939.50.
The hearing was opened for public comment at 7:33 PM.
Treasurer/Deputy Clerk Juliann Green presented the key points of the 2015-2016 Budget:
7






The General Fund Budget is $1,546,201; The Sewer Fund Budget is $217,631; The total
Village Budget for 2015-2016 is $1,763,832.
The tax rate per thousand is $5.63 (increase of 1.68% from last year).
The annual sewer charge is $147.47 per sewer unit (increase of 1.68% from last year).
Health care plan costs for employees and retirees have increased exponentially. Sales tax
revenue is down. State Aid revenue has flattened. There are more State and Federal
mandates. All of these factors contributed to the increased tax levy.
Most Village employees and Board Members will receive, on average, a 1.68 % salary
increase (to stay within the tax cap).
Departmental budget lines have been reduced or remain flat in order to maintain the NYS
mandated 1.68% tax cap.
Mayor Gee closed public comment and opened the floor for Board and Departmental comment at 7:37 PM.
DPW Superintendent Farrell asked if the Forestry Board requests were included in the budget, so they
would not be reflected off his departmental budget. The Village did not get any specific requests from the
Forestry Board for the budget. Mayor Gee said that there is a contingent account set at $6,000 that gives us
flexibility if something should be requested after the budget is adopted.
Mayor Gee closed the public hearing at 7:43 PM.
Treasurer/Deputy Clerk Green mentioned to the Mayor that salaries should have been increased by the tax
cap number of 1.68%, and instead were only increased by 1.6%. She will go back and make the
modifications so that the budget is consistent before the adoption vote is taken.

Mr. Farrell is back to work after being out three weeks and will be taking it easy for the next
couple weeks.
Removed one ash tree in Johnson Park with the help of Steve Smith. We still have one more to
remove and will do this soon.
Repaired the two sections of sidewalk on Main St where we removed 2 trees (in front of
Salvatore’s). We were approached numerous times about why we were doing this. At least one
other business owner is requesting that a tree be taken down. Recommendations regarding Main
Street trees need to come from the Forestry Board. Mayor Gee said that there is a list of trees
available from RG & E that are “powerline friendly.” We should get that list and check the
varieties mentioned.
All flags and banners are up on Main St and would like to discuss the flower situation. The color
of flowers was discussed. Fish is up and the planter boxes have been repainted.
Need to discuss the dumpster policy and get letters sent out to businesses. Waste management
relayed that the same prices as now will be in effect until the next OGS contract comes out (end of
May). Also need to talk about how we want to handle toters on Main St, especially Salvatore’s
Pizza. There are about four refuse companies, but Waste Management is mostly used. Mayor Gee
spoke of having a cardboard dumpster behind the Village Hall. There was also talk of a
“community” dumpster that would include the Village Offices, Chase Bank, the apartments and
Salvatore’s. This would eliminate a lot of the toters that are around the parking lot area of the
Village Hall presently. There would be an extra fee for a second pickup on Fridays. Mayor Gee
and Superintendent Farrell stated for all that garbage is collected on Mondays and Tuesdays.
Recyclables are picked up separately on Wednesdays. Garbage and recyclables are kept separate.
We will start the sidewalk on Browns/Race soon, this is part of the Block Grant. The grant for this
year is for skatepark equipment and handicap access picnic tables.
Repaired a collapsed catch basin on Oatka Pl.

Filled pot holes and did sod repair from the winter damage.
I think we are all set for Earth Day. I will talk to Sunnking and make sure we are charging for the
proper items. I will be short staffed for the day due to different reasons.
Would like to discuss a few issues concerning the festival. Trustee Ronnenberg will work with
Bridgett Gee to solicit business sponsors for the Scottsville Family Funfest.
Would like to attend Cornell’s Highway School again this year. The Board granted the request.

DPW Superintendent Farrell had a few more items to cover:
 The Scott Crescent permit is in the works. Scott Crescent residents are still getting yards flooded.
The Village is trying to remedy the situation.
 The lump sum merit increases for DPW is based on 1.68%. It will be up to Superintendent Farrell
to decide how to allocate it.
 The Board agreed with Mr. Farrell to send the 1999 leaf vacuum to the municipal auction in
Palmyra.
 The Mayor said he got a call from Bart Coller of Wheldon Street who had some sewer work done
and now had to fix the road. It is the contractor’s responsibility to repair the road. Russell
Plumbing was used. We will check what it would cost to have the Village fix the road.
VILLAGE CLERK –Lee Mikewicz

Records Grant Update – We are mostly done at the DPW Building. The Clerk still has some
administrative functions to perform, but the basic sorting and setting aside records to be destroyed
or saved has been completed. Record data sheets need to be made up for items scheduled for
destruction and the Mayor will need to sign off on the destruction. The area of sorting and file
listing has shifted to the Village Hall. Our first shipment of 75 storage boxes has arrived and we
are using them in our sorting process. The complete list of plans and blueprints has been passed to
the Mayor and Mr. Rech for review. It will be easier to determine final disposition on these items
once they are on site in the Village Office (currently at DPW).

Website Update – Matt Turcotte has sent us the templates that we have chosen as our finalists.
The Mayor and Clerk can now manipulate lettering and colors to try and narrow down the choices.
The Board will also get a chance to view the finalists once the choices are pared down a little
further.

Mayor Gee mentioned that last month we spoke of CPP providing payroll processing. They could also rewrite our policy manual (handbook). The discussion continued with the topic of direct deposit of
paychecks. CPP would be able to accommodate multiple transactions on each paycheck. It would make the
workload easier for the Treasurer/Deputy Clerk if payroll was outsourced.

Code Enforcement Dept.- Not much is going on per Mr. Rech’s report.
Facebook Administrator – Believe that everything is going well.
Treasurer – Working very hard and getting organized.
Village Zoning/Planning Boards

Stipend and Meeting Schedule – The criteria was that only 2
meetings could be missed per year and the members had to
fulfill required training classes. With no meetings in
December, this meant that they only had to attend 9 meetings a
year. Mayor Gee said that he wanted to get rid of pro-rating
the stipend as they did last year. He would prefer the stipend
be “all or nothing” and not be a pay per meeting attended. The
Board should have an option to “not have a meeting” and still
allow 2 passes (would include a cancelled meeting). It still
comes back to attending 10 meetings a year.

We now have two open seats on the Planning/Zoning Boards.
Carl Schoenthal, Kyle Burns and Rick VenVertloh have
expressed interest. No one has answered the newspaper ad.
Mayor Gee said they should send in a letter of interest with a
resume. The Village Board would then review.
MOTION: made by Deputy Mayor Wagar and seconded by Trustee J. Clark to set the
following guidelines for changing the Planning Board/Zoning Board schedule for meeting
the stipend requirements:
 The Planning Board will have a schedule of twelve meetings per year with an
option to cancel one.
 Board members will be allowed 2 passes (missed meetings) per year. This
would include a cancelled meeting.
 Board members would need to attend 10 meetings per year and fulfill the
required training to get their stipend.
 Additional training attended that is above and beyond what is required could be
substituted for a meeting absence upon letter of request and approval by the
Village Board.
A letter to each Planning/Zoning Board member with a copy of the motion will be sent so
they are aware of what is needed to obtain their stipend.

TRUSTEE RICHARD CLARK
Liaison to:
Department of Public Works
o Trustee Clark felt that the refurb of the dump body at $8,500 for
the 2004 truck is the smartest way to go (rather than spending
$35,000 on a new dump body).
Trustee Clark mentioned that the Pennysaver can do a 1-page insert in its papers (to a targeted zip
code) for $.10 per household. Since the Village is always looking for ways to get information out
to the public, this could be another option. Price includes printing, inserting and distributing.
