Dear Councilors:

Several months ago, discussion ensued regarding Health Insurance benefits being paid to Elected Officials and appointed Board Members. Chapter 32B ofMGL deals with much of this along with benefits offered to Surviving Spouses of Retired or ensured Employees.

I will bring to the meeting for your information, a policy that will be put in place effective January 1, 2011 regarding Health Insurance for Retired or Surviving Spouses of Deceased Employees and Elected and Appointed Officials.

Re: Airport Borrowing Order

Dear Councilors:

Enclosed please find the borrowing Order for appropriation of $650,000.00 for ongoing improvements and our grant match at the Harriman and West Airport.

As you may recall, the City is responsible for a 2.5% match of the more than 5 million dollars in improvements, the State is responsible for a 2.5% match and the remainder is paid with Federal dollars. This Order represents $150,000 for the balance of our match as well as $500,000 which we will need to finish the project.

The $500,000 is quite honestly an overrun and represents the completion on the Runway Safety Area (RSA) which has been problematic since 2009. There is a new design for the RSA and we are hopeful on two fronts; first, that $500,000 will complete the RSA and second, that the FAA may infuse additional funds to help defray these additional costs.

I respectfully request adoption of this Order as presented.

Sincerely,

On motion of Councillor Harpin, duly seconded by Councillor Cariddi it was VOTED: to confirm the appointment.

Councillor Blackmer asked if anyone on the Board has been there for more than a year, and also questioned if training was provided for the new Board members. It seems to be a total turn over in the Board since last year.

Council President praised the City on their budget process.

Without objection the President placed the communication on file.

The President presented Mayor's communication #73 regarding the City taking over the operations of the Water Plant on Pattison Road.

The Mayor explained the contract with United Water will be ending on September 30th, The City has managed the water plant since 1993. This will save the City at least $35,000 a year. The City needs to hire a Commissioner of Public Services in order to take over the operation of the plant. The $300,000.00 which is appropriated for the contract will cover the salaries of the Commissioner and two operators. Mr. Lescarbeau who oversees the plant now will become the City's Commissioner of Public Services on October 1 st,

Councillor Blackmer asked ifhis salary included benefits, health insurance, and pension. The Mayor said Mr. Lescarbeau would not be taking the health insurance now. Councillor Blackmer said but he may in the future. Councillor Blackmer, as well as many other Councilors are concerned about the liability the City will occur in the event of an accident. At this time it falls under the current contract. The Mayor does not see the liability as an issue because the DEP and Department of Revenue have approved the move.

Mr. Green told Council that the water plant has been kept in good working order over the years because of preventative maintenance. The largest expense in the last few years has been the sand filters which were replaced in 2008 at a cost of $70,000. He explained it works similar to a swimming pool filter. Mr. Lescarbeau holds water filtration licenses and had an educational background. Mr. Lescarbeau is also a civil engineer.

The Mayor explained Mr. Lescarbeau biggest challenges right now will be to determine where 48 million gallons of unaccountable water is going. He will also be able to review projects that the City's part time engineer cannot.

Mr. Goodell, 564 Barbour asked if the residents could assume there will be no increase in the water for FY' 12. The Mayor stated that the City can not assume anything.

The President presented Mayor's communication #74 amending the Classification Plan for FY'II.

The Mayor explained the change in the Classification plan was simply to put Mr. Markland in the correct classification. It would be no change to his salary. The position of Special Projects Coordinator will not be filled.

Mr. Cardimino, 173 East Quincy asked what his duties would be. The Mayor explained it would allow Mr. Markland to work more closely with the management of the highway department. Councillor Bona stated that the recommendation of the DOR #6 will include job descriptions.

Without objection the President placed the communication on file.

The President presented an Ordinance amending Chapter 2, Section 2-27 of the Revised Ordinance, Schedule A the Classification Plan for FY' 11.

The President presented an application submitted by Kevin Delisle, 138 East Quincy Street, to drive taxi for Lori Smith.

On motion of Councillor Harpin, duly seconded by Councillor Marden it was VOTED: to postpone to the next meeting, applicant not present.

The President called for any Councillor Concerns, Councillor Boland reminded everyone to vote for the skateboard park that the Youth Commission is seeking a grant for. Votes are needed and may be submitted every day through the end of September. Councillor Harpin asked about the liability for the park. Councillor Boland said that has been addressed and they are looking at other communities to model from. Councillor Blackmer on behalf of the City Clerk thanked everyone involved in making Election Day go so smoothly. Councillor Bona asked if Donald Blair could speak on his book of poems. Mr. Blair presented all Councillors with a copy of his book.

The Mayor expressed his concerns about the juvenile court being moved, but he has been assured that it will be moving into the District Court on Holden Street. He is also concerned about Transitional Assistance and Berkshire Works, (unemployment office) being moved. The community needs to have these office available here in our City.

With no further business to come before the Council, a motion to adjourn was in order.

VOTED: to adjourn at 9:00pm. A True Record

Attest,

The President called for anyone wishing to speak in Open Forum, David Babcock of 73 Kemp Ave., also expressed his concerns for the unemployment office being moved to Pittsfield. The office presently serves about 100 people a week and it would be a definite hardship to the community.

Re: Human Service Commission Ordinance Amendment

Date: September 28, 2010

I would like to bring to the City Council Meeting's agenda for September 28,2010 that an amendment be made to the existing ordinance regarding the North Adams Human Service Commission.

The City Ordinances identifies Article XXXVI as the North Adams Human Service Commission. Sec.2-137 "Powers and Duties" includes the language:

In order to facilitate timely and equitable review offunding requests, human services agencies must submit such requests by May 1 of eachjiscal year. The human service commission shall then submit their recommendations to the mayor by June 1 of each jiscal year and the mayor shall then, if he is inclined to, submit appropriating orders to the city councilby July 1 of eachjiscal year.

The FY II budget has allocated $7,500 for the Human Service Commission to be awarded to qualified agencies based on their applications. The current Human ServiceCommissioners are proposing:

• that the Human Service funding requests deadline of May 1st (sec.2-137 a) be suspended for this year so that funding applications can still be received for the allocated 7.5k in the 2011 fiscal year budget.

• the submission date be changed to December 31, 2010, in order for funds to be awarded by February 1,2010 and expended by the respective agencies by June 30, 20 l l-the close of FY 2011.

• The original May 1 deadline will be reinstated for the FY 2012 applications.

It is my understanding that the Council can vote on this temporary amendment, or refer the issues to the Public Services committee for review, prior to voting.

Thank you for your consideration.
