Department Heads and other county employees within the respective departments for whom advance payments were made are responsible for ensuring that any cost or fee incurred in advance of attendance are properly refunded and credited to the county in the event of cancellation of attendance at an approved conference, convention, school, seminar or workshop.

RESOLUTION NO. 531-10: RESOLUTION URGING NEW YORK STATE TO SIGNIFICANTLY CUT THE UNFUNDED MANDATES THAT CAUSE LOCAL PROPERTY TAX INCREASES BEFORE IMPOSING A CAP ON LOCAL PROPERTY TAXES

Mr. Hammond presented the following:

        WHEREAS, Governor David Paterson and many State Legislators are supportive of a cap on local property tax levies of 4%, or 120% of inflation, whichever is less; and

        WHEREAS, little or no action has been taken by New York State to decrease or control the costs of unfunded State mandates, which have been driving county property tax levels for decades; and

        WHEREAS, without mandate reform, such a cap would be impossible because State mandates make up as much as 75 to 85 percent of a county budget, and these State costs increase substantially each year, well over the proposed 4% cap.  Some examples:

§          County payments to the NYS Retirement System are expected to rise 33% in 2011.

§          The local cost of Medicaid rises 3% each year.

§          The State continues to shift its costs to counties in the 2009-10 and 2010-11 State budgets.

§          New York State currently owes Wayne County at least $3.7 million, overdue for State services rendered by Wayne County.

§          During the 2010 legislative session, the State shifted over $100 million in costs to counties for delivering state services locally in child welfare and youth detention programs, representing yet another unfunded mandate.

        WHEREAS, counties are mandated by the State to use local tax dollars to pay for State programs such as Medicaid, early intervention services, pre-school special education services, public assistance, child welfare, youth detention, jails and numerous other programs; and

        WHEREAS, the property tax cap proposal does nothing to reduce or eliminate the current mandates; and

        WHEREAS, the property tax cap proposal allows local boards to override the cap with a two-thirds majority vote, thereby not only shifting costs to local governments, but also unfairly shifting the burden to local leaders for tax increases that are actually caused by the State; and

        WHEREAS, the Wayne County Board of Supervisors has, through responsible financial and budgetary actions and policies, stabilized and decreased property tax rates from $9.51 to $7.82 per thousand since 2005, and reduced the tax levy from $39,419,042 to $35,049,084 during the same period, despite the recession, and without the “benefit” of a State-imposed property tax cap.

        NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Wayne County Board of Supervisors urges New York State not to impose a local property tax cap unless it is coupled with significant cuts to the State mandated programs that cause local property tax increases; and

        BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that copies of this Resolution be forwarded to Governor David Paterson, State Senator Michael Nozzolio, Assemblyman Robert Oaks, and the New York State Association of Counties.

        Mr. Manktelow moved the adoption of the resolution.  Seconded by Mrs. Bender.

 

        Mr. Lauderdale addressed the Board to stress the importance of capping local property taxes.

        Upon roll call, all Supervisors voted Aye, except Supervisor Lauderdale who voted Nay.  The Chairman declared the Resolution adopted.

 

RESOLUTION NO. 532-10: RESOLUTION DIRECTING THE WAYNE COUNTY DIRECTOR OF PROBATION AND CORRECTIONAL ALTERNATIVES TO NOT AMEND THE COUNTY INTERLOCK PLAN TO COMPLY WITH THE PROVISIONS OF THE CHILD PASSENGER SAFETY ACT, CHAPTER 496 OF THE LAWS OF 2009

Mr. Plant presented the following:

         WHEREAS, each county in New York State was required to submit an Ignition Interlock Plan to New York State in order to prepare to implement the Child Passenger Safety Act, Chapter 496 of the Laws of 2009 also referred to as “Leandra’s Law”; and

         WHEREAS, it was represented that the law would be “no fiscal impact to the State”; and  

         WHEREAS, as part of the Interlock Plan the agency designated by Wayne County to be the Conditional Discharge Monitor for the Ignition Interlock devices that are required under this law is the New York State Police; and

         WHEREAS, the Director of Probation and Correctional Alternatives has been informed that the plan that was submitted does not meet the requirements of the law as the New York State Police have indicated they will not monitor Interlock Devices; and

         WHEREAS, the Director has been requested to submit an addendum to the plan that addresses the Conditional Discharge monitoring agency designation; and

         WHEREAS, placing the Conditional Discharge monitoring responsibility within the Wayne County Department of Probation and Correctional Alternatives would require an additional staff person at an initial annual net cost of nearly $50,000 to the property taxpayers of Wayne County; and
