  • EMPLOYEE HANDBOOK – HIGHWAY EMPLOYEE VACATION ACCRUAL

 

            Mr. Strickland said he wished to address Highway employee vacation time accrual in the employee handbook.  He said vacation time currently is awarded on January 1st of each year.  He said he would like to have it remain that way.  He said Andy Post had questioned why his vacation wasn’t awarded on January 1.  He used an example of probation hire date of October, and permanent hire date of February.  He indicated that everyone gets a week vacation when they are hired.  He said all employees should receive their vacation days at the same time on January 1st.  He said everyone gets their vacation on Jan. 1, and no one should be singled out.

            Mrs. Thomas asked if they earn vacation while on probation.

            Mrs. Carlson said no.

            Mr. Strickland said when he left the County and was hired as an M.E.O. at the town in October, 2000; he was awarded his vacation time in January, 2001.

            Mrs. Thomas said that was prior to the Employee Handbook adoption.

            Mrs. Carlson said ordinarily you wouldn’t start getting your vacation time until you had worked a year. She said the handbook, Article 10., indicates that 6 months to 1 year you get 4 hrs./month.

            Mr. Strickland said other employees get all their vacation on January 1st.

            Mrs. Thomas said they are grandfathered by the policy in place prior to the handbook. 

            Mr. Stow said he believed we adjusted some of the highway employee’s records so they would all get their vacation in January. He said in each case for a new hire it would require a motion to do the partial and adjust it to January 1st.

            Mrs. Miller said whatever the board establishes today is what she will abide by in the future.

            Mr. Sena asked Mrs. Miller what the issue with Mr. Post is.

            Mrs. Miller said he addressed his date of hire and the amount of vacation time he had in advance of the New Year coming up.  She said he indicated that he thought he had another year of vacation.  She said there is some confusion on when his year begins: date of hire; end of probation; October 1, 2014.

            Mr. Sena said he would be entitled in his first year to vacation of 4 hours for October, November and December. 

TOWN BOARD

1/9/2017 (Pg. 4)

 

            Mrs. Miller said whatever is decided will affect all the new hires going forward.

            Mr. Strickland said they were all hired in different months so when their six months probation is done, that will be their permanent hire date and they will begin accruing 4 hrs. vacation in that month and will accrue it till December 31 and then January 1st they will get their vacation for the year. 

            Mrs. Carlson asked if we needed to make a change in the handbook.

            Mr. Strickland asked Mrs. Miller if she was clear and did anything need to change.

            Mrs. Miller said if we’re going to follow the handbook.

            Mr. Strickland said nothing needs to be added to that as long as Mrs. Miller understands how she is doing the book work.

            Mr. Stow said as long as everyone is being treated equal.

            Mrs. Miller stated that NYS Retirement mandates that date of hire (probationary) full time employees are granted retirement and cannot opt out of the retirement system.

  • EMPLOYEE HANDBOOK CLARIFICATIONS

            Mrs. Carlson asked Mr. Strickland if there was anything else to discuss about the handbook.

            Mr. Strickland said not that he knows of.

 

  • AUDIT OF COURT AND TOWN CLERK BOOKS

            Mrs. Carlson said the board needs to schedule a time to audit the Court and Town Clerk’s books.

            Mr. Peacock said his books should be ready without too much trouble anytime.

            Mrs. Thomas said her books are almost ready, but she has been very busy with early taxes.  She said she has just received her books back from the board for 2015 audit and asked if they intended to make a motion on the results.  No action was taken.

            Mr. Stow asked if the town would be using the same format as Baghat-Robbins used for the court last year. 

            Mrs. Carlson said yes, we would do the audit ourselves using the same format.

            Mrs. Thomas said she would try to have her books ready for audit by 1/20/17.

 

  • REQUEST FOR EXTENSION TO FILE ANNUAL UPDATE DOCUMENT (AUD)

            Mrs. Carlson said they have requested an extension to file the AUD for the Comptroller. 

 

  • FULL TIME EMPLOYEES / RETIREMENT

            Mrs. Carlson said that having found out that full time employees cannot opt out of the retirement system, the town may be getting a bill from NYS-ERS because we had not included the new full time employees in the retirement system immediately.  She said they will be billing us along with interest. 

            Mr. McNeill asked if we have a potential dollar amount for that.

TOWN BOARD

1/9/2017 (Pg. 6)

 

            Mrs. Carlson said we do not know.

            Mr. Stow said he recalled hearing awhile back we made a request that they audit.

            Mrs. Miller said that when there were so many transitions in 2006 they had requested the Comptroller to audit, not the NYS-ERS.

 

  • CHAUTAUQUA COUNTY DIRECTOR OF FINANCE – 2016 Statement of monies paid to town

            Mrs. Thomas said she had provided the board members with a copy of the County’s yearly statement of all monies paid to the town in 2016.

 

  • REPORTS:

 

PIERRE CHAGNON, LEGISLATOR

            Mr. Chagnon said the following occurred at the December, 2016 Legislature meeting:

I presented a commendation to the Maple Grove Boys Cross Country Team who won the New York State Public High School Athletic Association Class D Championship, their first state title in school history. The team had a 14-0 season league record and earned 1st place in the County championships and 1st place at the Section 6 Class D championship, and because of their outstanding season performance the team was invited to race at the NYS Federation meet and 5 team members were selected to the All-state team.

We extended tax collection agreements with the cities of Dunkirk and Jamestown. After considerable investigation, on balance I supported the extension of the tax collection agreements for the efficiencies and operational advantages they provide, and in recognizing the benefits of consolidation of services. But it is important that all County taxpayers recognize these agreements do not provide a net financial gain to the County, but rather a substantial net cost. 

We authorized funding the County’s 5% share of ongoing expenses in the police consolidation study with the City of Jamestown that has been ongoing since 2007 when the grant was received. I expressed my concern with on-going expenses over such a long duration. 

We authorized agreements with the Village of Bemus Point for enhanced police services, and the towns of Ellery and North Harmony for court security. 

We approved labor contracts with the Chautauqua County Sheriff Supervisors Association and the Chautauqua County Deputy Sheriffs Association for five-year terms. In exchange for moving from the current NYS retirement plan permitting retirement after 25 years of service to a plan permitting retirement after 20 years of service, all active duty members of these bargaining units as well as all future retirees will be enrolled in the County’s high deductible health insurance plan. If assumptions hold, this should result in a net cost reduction to the County within 10 years. 

ASSESSOR, KEVIN OKERLUND

            Mrs. Carlson said Mr. Okerlund’s report indicated that the Enhanced STAR forms will be mailed out soon and will need to be returned by 3/1/17 (income limit $86,000).  The Senior exemption is for any resident age 65 or over whose combined income is $20,000 or less per year (50% reduction of Town/County tax).  She said the town had opted many years ago to stay in line with the county on this exemption and

somehow that had gotten missed by the Assessor’s Office.  She said she believes the matter has been resolved for future exemption amounts. 

 

DAN STRICKLAND, HIGHWAY SUPERINTENDENT

            Mr. Strickland said the asphalt plant will be opening sometime in April and until then they will be out plowing the roads. 

 

HOWARD PEACOCK, JUSTICE

            Mr. Peacock read his December, 2016 report for those present.

            $41,752.00  in fines, fees, and surcharges was collected by the Court and given to the Town of North Harmony CFO for the court cases reported to the NYS Comptroller for December, 2016.  We opened 231 new cases and closed 263 cases.

             Of the $51,176.00 collected by the Court in November, the Town retained $15,998.00.  

             Please note that I will submit the 2016 year-end summary in the February report as I do not yet have the Comptroller’s figures for December.

 

  • GRANT APPLICATION FOR COURT (2ND APPLICATION)

            Mr. Peacock said he had received notification that the Court has been awarded a second grant from the Unified Court System in the amount of $15,000.00 (requested was $25,000).  He said the town has 180 days to spend the funds.

            Mrs. Carlson asked Mr. Sena where we stand on the addition.

            Mr. Sena said the Architect and Engineer had just contacted him today and he hopes to meet with both of them this week.

            Mrs. Carlson said it would be good for all involved to have a meeting with them.

            Mr. Sena said they could review the preliminary design; give an idea of cost; and funds could be released to move forward.

 

BRAD LAWSON, ZONING C.E.O. (Report in Minute Book)

            Mr. Lawson reviewed his report for December, 2016. 

 

BRAD LAWSON, AFD COMMISSIONER

            Mr. Lawson said the District held their Organizational Meeting last Tuesday.  He said the Fire Dept. Chiefs have really held the line on spending which they are grateful for as they are still paying for the tanker.

He said there is a truck at the Ashville Station now.  He said a number of young members will turn 21 this year and that is going to be a big help to the department. 

 

JOHN STOW, D.C.O.

            Mrs. Carlson said Mr. Stow’s report included a dangerous dog incident on Butts Rd. in which the dog was deemed not to be dangerous.

 

NANCY THOMAS, TOWN CLERK (Copy of report in Minute Book)

            Mrs. Thomas reminded the board that the AOT 2017 Training School and Annual Meeting will be held in New York City Feb. 19-22, 2017.
