Lead Agency: City of Buffalo Planning Board Room 901, City Hall 65 Niagara Square Buffalo New York 14202 As per the provisions of SEAR, the Lead Agency has reviewed the following action as it relates to the environment: Action Title Bethlehem Missionary Baptist Church, Parking Lot Location: 165 -167 Doat Street, Buffalo, New York Type of Action: Unlisted - Uncoordinated Description: Bethlehem Missionary Baptist Church is proposing to construct a new parking lot on a vacant and unpaved small parcel of land located at 165 -167 Doat Street on the city's eastside. The new parking lot is located on the south side of the building and is estimated to be approximately six thousand, eight hundred square feet (6,800). The parking lot will include eighteen (18) parking spaces, two being handicap spaces. Two new lights and drainage are included in this project. The project will be funded privately and cost approximately $60,000 dollars. As a result of this Environmental Review, the Lead Agency has determined the undertaking of this action will not have a significant adverse impact on the quality of the environment. No further environmental review of this action will be conducted prior to project implementation and a Draft Environmental Impact Statement will not be prepared. Reasons Supporting This Determination: The facts and reasons for this decision are as follows: The proposed parking lot will clean up debris and weeds from the site and provide the church with necessary off - street parking. It will also provide a safe, lighted area for the church members and staff to park during evening activities and visually improve the area. The identified potential negative impacts appear to be primarily short -term site preparation and construction related activities, and do not appear to be significant in magnitude or effect. There are no actions, which will have a significant adverse impact on the environment. For further information relative to this Negative Declaration, contact Mr. Martin Grunzweig, Land Use Controls Coordinator, Room 901 City Hall, Buffalo, New York 14202 — 716 851 -5085.

Young + Wright Architectural Inc. Larkin Building, Suite 612 726 Exchange St. Buffalo, N.Y. 14210-1433 Phone: 842 -1800 • Fax: 842 -1807 Web site: www.youngarch.com V SMALL- BUSINESS CASE STUDY BY JAME FINK jfink @bi�aumaisnm A few years back, Jerry Young and Shawn Wright were part of a growing cadre of architects, designers and planners who worked in the Buffalo office of the Sear - Brown Group. Then their entrepreneurial spirit began to gnaw away at them.. The desire to hang out their own shingle. under their own firm`s banner kept grooving and growing. Finally, they decided to do something about it and thus, Young Wright Architectural was born three years ago. "It was the first time, I had ever gone out on my own," said Jerry Young, the firm's managing partner. The duo have never looked back. What's going on: Young and Wright have literally designed their own destiny and future. When they left Sear - Brown, they did so without a single client or contract pending. In three short years, the firm has carved out a niche designing everything from new wings 'on high school buildings to water&ont condos in Bridgeport, Corer. to a call center in Big Flats near Ehnira. For Young, branching out into the corporate field was a chance to enhance his already formidable skills by designing Structures Re hotels, condos and corporate offices. "For the fast 20 years of my career, I mostly designed schools," he said. School and education work remains the firm's bread - and - butter.

Fiini contract: Given their educational roots, t is not surprising that the first contract tatutg + Wright received was from the City of 32!tavia School District to serve as constntc- ion administrators for a $20 million project hat included new classrooms, a high scltool ving and an $8 million renovation for the :lementary schooL Wilheut a net: By all accounts, it was — and remains -- a learning experience for )oth Young and Wright_ "We went from working for a company vith more than 1,00p employees to one vith just three people, "young said. Besides drurn ing up business, Young nd Wright had to ]earn what it was like to verate their own firm. Wright focused on 3ccotuiting and human resources aspects vhile Young put his attention on marketing aid the firm's corporate direction. For 'instance, it took the pair more than ine year to establish a 401 -K program for heir employees. They had to develop their own employees nanual, something that three years down he road is continually being tweaked. "This week, for the first time. we had o deal with an employee's bereavement cquest," Young said. "We just hadrit hought about that-" The pair contacted some of their fellow rchitects who have gone off on their own ar guidance. That strategy has worked. "It helps to network with other architects ,hawn and I know," Young said. There were other things, too. Health insurance was another headache .icing the dun. Young said in the firm's earliest days, they -re lucky that the first wave of employees ll had health care coverage courtesy of heir respective spouses. +prey Fauns, ten, and Shawn Wright, hope to add three or four workers this year to their current staff of 1p, which includes Jeremy lgielinski, lower right. Now, Young + Wright offer folly paid health -care coverage for their employees. They use that as a perk to attract new workers. "There's a little bit of sticker shock when you see just how expensive health care costs really are," Young said. But in our mind, it is an expense that we are just going to have to deal with." Putting together the 401 -k retirement Program was another tough challenge. It was at rimes: Confusing, mind- boggling and a lot more paperwork than eitherYoung at Wright ever enAMoried. That's whyit took them more than one year to put it together. "We'd rather he taking care of clients and new business," Young said, 'A 401 -k was important, but we ended up putting it in the'not urgent' column and that was a prettybig column," flevenaes: The firm produced approxi- mately $550,000 in revenues last year and is on a pace to hit the $900,000 mark this year. Employees: The firm has to employees and hopes to add three or four newworkers this year. Inca, us. etsemere: Young +Wright is grow- ing a diverse client base. The work load is split evenly between local and projects else- where, The firm has designed a Staybridge hotel, slated for Transit Road In Lancaster thatwill be under construction later this spring. It has also worked with Pioneer Credit Recovery on its buildings in Perry, Batavia andArcade. Tmely lessens E Line up your client& - Make sure you have some clients and lined up before you go out on your own," Jeny'Young says. 0 Have help on standby: Young says; "Have someone that can mentor you and someone you can call CityView Properties has retained the firm to design a four- story. B0,000- square -foot multi- tenant building to complement the Larkin. Building. Young + Wright was also hired to design a Best Western hotel in Penn Yan, a Gen - eral Revenue Corp. call center in Big Flats, y a Comfort Suites hotel in Cranbury, N.J., upscale condos in Telluride, Colo., and an assisted living center in Spow, Ohio. Many of the out-of-state contracts came from business connections and networking efforts byYoung and Wright. Biggest arxromplishmatt: Getting up to 10 a employees in less than three years. Em "We have a fully functioning team, now." Young said. "We are growing and everyone is growing into their positions." Growing up: Young admits starting out on his own is a tough task, especially in an eco- nomically challenged region like the Buffalo Niagara area. When they are bidding for work, they are often times bidding against some of the regions biggest names in architecture and design. "They have a lot bigger, reputations than we do," Young said "One of the more important lessons we learned is that it does take time to develop your name." Fun and games: Young says his experience has been a rewarding one and one be has cherished. "It's been fun to watch us grow, even if I'm taking home smaller paychecks now," he said. BothYoung and Wright put a premium on rewarding employees by doing such things as taking employees and spouses to Buffalo Bills and Buffalo Sabres games.

Purpose: The policy of the Federal Government in acquiring architectural, engineering, and related professional services is to encourage firms lawfully engaged in the practice of those professions to submit annually a statement of qualifications and performance data. Standard Form 254, `Architect- Engineer and Related Services Questionnaire," is provided for that purpose. Interested A -E firms (including new, small, and/or minority firms) should complete and file SF 254`s with each Federal agency and with appropriate regional or district offices for which the A -E is Qualified to perform services. The agency head for each proposed project shall evaluate these qualification resumes, together with any other performance data on file or requested by the agency, in relation to the proposed project. The SF 254 may be used as a basis for selecting firms for discussions, or for screening firms preliminary to inviting submission of additional information. Definitions: "Architect- Engineer Services" are defined in Part 36 of the Federal Acquisition Regulation. "Parent Company" is that firm, company, corporation, association or conglomerate which is the major stockholder or highest tier owner of the firm completing this questionnaire, i,e., Firm A is owned by Firm 8 which is, in turn, a subsidiary of Corporation C. The "parent company" of Firm A is Corporation C. "Principals" are those individuals in a firm who possess legal responsibility for its management. They may be owners, partners, corporate offices, associates, administrators, etc. "Discipline" as used in this questionnaire, refers to the primary technological capability of individuals in the responding firm.

Through the application of the grant and rebate - -based incentives offered by the comprehensive Buffalo Economic Renaissance Corporation's (BERC) Commercial Area Revitalization Effort (CARE), the tools are in place to offer the small business owners support in their efforts to strengthen the identities of their businesses, and in turn the communities they inhabit. Through the employment of the BERC's revitalization efforts, and the assistance of knowledgeable design professionals, a concerted enhancement of the physical appearance of the program areas can help preserve the unique urban character of the targeted areas. Our team is ideally suited to identify and address deficiencies, develop the design guidelines, work with the property owners, and implement improvements on a set timeline. Bailey Avenue Program Area Spanning from North Buffalo's University District to the North end of the Lovejoy Council District on the Upper East Side, the Bailey Avenue Commercial Area is located on a North -South arterial, running from Winspear Avenue at the North to Delovan Avenue in the South. Among the last areas within city limits to be developed, it now encompasses approximately 240 properties over 1.8 miles, over half of them commercial land uses, and the corridor serves as a main street and identifying feature of the various neighborhoods it traverses. Despite the positive influence of the University at Buffalo as an anchor at the North End of the Program Area, there has been a continually declining population base, and an extensive inventory of dilapidated properties proliferating the Bailey Avenue Commercial area. Poqe T Excellence In All We Do Wafts Engineering &Architecture, P.C. The central and major commercial node, the intersection V revitalization efforts necessary in the other portions of the project area. In turn, the southern third of the project area, bounded by the elevated Route 33 expressway to the North and East Delovan Avenue to the South, is more predominantly residential in character, along with several community service land uses, while the activity closer to the expressway has seen large scale and automobile oriented development. The strength of the entire corridor, however, appears to be the Northern third. In recent years, there has been a small but steady increase in the number of specialty and ethnic based restaurants, groceries, and retail shops in response to The growing international population at the university. This is a vernacular movement that can be built upon. Potential stakeholders in the revitalization effort include but are not limited to: • Bonnie Russell, University District Councilwoman • Richard Fontana, Lovejoy District Councilman • State University of New York at Buffalo • Street Synergy Community Association, Inc. • Northeast Buffalo Good Neighbors Planning Alliance • East Delovan Good Neighbors Planning Alliance of Bailey and Kensington Avenues, remains the area in taans need of the most rebuilding, as opposed to the piecemeal Viku Pa 2 Excellence In All We Do Watts Engineering & Architecture, P.C. Lovejoy Avenue Program Area F = At three quarters of a mile in length, the Lovejoy program area contains over 150 total parcels, with almost half of those being commercial. The program area is unique in that the commercial corridor performs an East -West bisection of a predominantly intact residential neighborhood known as "Iron Island", an area nicknamed as such for being completely encircled by a network of railroad corridors. Located on land once owned by Millard Fillmore, the commercial strip is unique in that its pedestrian character has seen little destruction, as its "landlocked" location has oriented it to receive very little outside through traffic. Home to a variety of family owned businesses mixed with a small amount of chain groceries, drug stores and banks, Lovejoy's strength of isolation has also been its weakness, as very little outside influence or investment has permeated this traditional enclave. However, the corridor currently enjoys the benefits of several cultural anchors near its midpoint, including a community pool, a church, and a public city school about to undergo a multi - million dollar redevelopment. This is a project area where the intention is truly to reinforce and strengthen the existing urban fabric. Potential stakeholders in the revitalization include but are not limited to: • Richard Fontana, Lovejoy District Councilman • Iron Island Preservation Society of Lovejoy. • East Side Buffalo Good Neighbors Planning Alliance • Buffalo Public Schools -- Joint Schools Construction Board, Phase 3 • Eastside Pride, Inc. Pa Excellence In All We Do Wafts Engineering & Arch itecture, P.C. South Park Avenue Program Area w The South Park Avenue program area runs 1 .8 miles, from the intersection at Bailey Avenue where South Park turns south, to the Southern city boundary with Lackawanna. In a region of the city with a strong industrial legacy, the area immediately surrounding the project area is almost completely residential, with several churches and other community service land uses located along the commercial strip. The program area contains over 250 parcels, with approximately half of these being commercial land uses. Historic South Park anchors the corridor at the South. The South Park Avenue program area represents one of City's more stable planning communities. Average household incomes and owner occupancy rates remain higher than the City average, while vacancy rates and poverty rates are among the lowest. Regarded as a healthy and vibrant community, revitalization efforts for this program area will look to capitalize on existing strengths and assist with the implementation of urban design and streetscape improvements. Potential stakeholders in the revitalization include but are not limited to: • Michael Kearns, South District Councilman O Richard Fontana, Lovejoy District Councilman South Buffalo Good Neighbors Planning Alliance » Greater South Buffalo Chamber of Commerce • South Park Renaissance • South Buffalo Alive • Goin' South Community Organization Page 4 Excellence to All We Do Waifs Engineering & Architecture, P.C. Design Phase Watts will conduct field surveys of the CARE Program areas including general building assessments and photo documentation of each area and use this g .;,� information to develop individualized design approaches unique to each area. Neighborhood specific design themes will be proposed with potential storefronts identified. Color pallets and signage will be outlined for each area. Photo based design boards will serve to communicate ideas and encourage owners to participate. After owners and storefronts have been identified, Watts will work with selected business owners to develop a contractor scope of work for each storefront. Documents will be developed using storefront elevation photos in combination with drawings and overlays, project narratives and construction notes. Cost estimates will be conducted parallel to the design process to ensure feasible projects. Bid Phase The design documents from the first phase will be used in the bid process. Each project will have an individual storefront design sheet and a relevant bid cover sheet. Watts will contact potential contractors to bid on the projects. Once bidding has started Watts will assist by issuing any required addenda clarifying or detailing the provisions of the Construction Documents. Such assistance shall include any re- design of the work for alternates or for material substitutions. Pa e 5 Excellence [n AI We Do Watts Engineering & Architecture, A.C. Meeting with Owners Upon selection of a contractor, Watts will review budgets and bids with owners and BERC t:, 1�> Neighborhood Specialists. The scope of the projects may be adjusted at this time to enable the z projects to move forward within budget. Watts will assist in the selection of contractors. r Federal Labor Standards and City of Buffalo Section 3 Policy Watts has been involved in a number of projects that require the contractor's bidding on the projects to adhere to Davis -Bacon Public Bidding Requirements. Watts will ensure that the Construction Documents will be up -to -date with all applicable regulations to help ensure a successful public bidding process. Construction Administration Watts will provide full construction administration services including but not limited to reviewing and approving shop drawings, reviewing and answering Requests for Information, reviewing payment applications, and a minimum of one site visit for each project. Upon completion of work, Watts will conduct a site visit for final review. The projects will be photographically documented and a brief narrative written for archival purposes. Project Timeline Upon the initiation of the project Watts will work with BERC to develop a schedule based upon the advertised RFP that is mutually agreeable and timely for the implementation of the previously described phases of the project.

These services are provided primarily in the Northeastern United States. 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Accounting The Company prepares its financial statements under the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Concentration of Credit Risk The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. The Company believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk with respect to cash. Accounts Receivable Accounts receivable includes billed and unbilled services and expenses, and is stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding balances. Management provides for probable uncollectible amounts through a charge to earnings and a credit to a valuation allowance based on its assessment of the current status of individual accounts. Balances that are still outstanding after management has used reasonable collection efforts are written off through a charge to the valuation allowance and a credit to accounts receivable. Management has determined that there is no valuation allowance necessary at December 31, 2005 and 2004. Unbilled time and expense charges in the amount of $488,361 and $537,223 is included in accounts receivable at December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Derivative Instrument The Company has an interest rate swap agreement which it uses to reduce interest rate risk and costs inherent in the Company's outstanding debt. The Company entered into this agreement to manage the fixed /variable rate mix of its debt portfolio so as to minimize its exposure to risk associated with interest rate fluctuations. The interest rate swap, which converts variable -rate debt to fixed -rate debt, reduces the likelihood of incurring higher interest costs due to rising interest gates. The national amount of the related debt is multiplied by a predetermined fixed interest rate and a variable interest rate monthly, and a net settlement is made with the swap dealer for the difference between the rates and such difference is charged or credited to interest expense. The fair value of the swap agreement is recognized as an asset or liability in the accompanying financial statements. D Page 37 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Depreciation Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is provided on the straight -line and accelerated methods in an amount which will amortize the cost of the asset over the period of its estimated useful life. The estimated useful lives for depreciation purposes are as follows; Leasehold improvements 5 -39 years Machinery and equipment 3 - 7 years Furniture and fixtures 7 years CAD equipment 5 years Computer network upgrades 5 years Vehicles 5 years The cost of assets sold or otherwise disposed of and the accumulated depreciation thereon are eliminated from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss is reflected in income. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to income as incurred; replacements are capitalized. Amortization Loan acquisition costs are amortized on the straight -line method over the life of the related loan. Amortization charged to operations amounted to $1,351 for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004. Income Taxes The Company has elected to be taxed under the provisions of Subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code. Under those provisions, the Company does not pay federal corporate income taxes on its taxable income. Instead, the stockholders are liable for individual federal income taxes on their share of the Company's taxable income. A similar election has been made for New York State. Advertising The Company expenses advertising as incurred. Advertising expense was $5,391 and $4,055 respectively for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires the Company's management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. Reclassifications In order to facilitate comparison of financial information, certain amounts reported in the prior year have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation. 3.

Casey, First Deputy Mayor Richard M. Tobe, Commissioner, Economic Development, Permit and Inspection Services RE: Empire Zone A question was raised at the Common Council Committee on Finance meeting regarding the Empire Zone benefits available to future homeowners in Sycamore Village. Pursuant to Section 485(e) of the Real Property Tax Law, owners will be entitled to a real property tax exemption for the increase in assessed value attributable to the improvements on the property. As an exemption, the property owner does not have to pay taxes on the increased value of the property during the exemption period. The amount of the exemption is 100% for the first 7 years, 75 % in year 8, 50% in year 9 and 25% in year 10. The tax exemption available pursuant to Sec. 485(e) is different than the benefits available to a QEZE or qualified empire zone entity. QEZE's, entities that have met certain eligibility criteria, pay full taxes to the City and County, and then receive reimbursement from New York State in the form of an income tax credit. 920 City Hall • 65 Niagara Square • Buffalo, New York 14202 - 3376 ' (716) 851 -5035 0 FAX: (716) 954-017211 City Clerk's Department BUFFALO July 27, 2007 HON.

The city -owned vacant lot at 545 Monroe is next to a privately owned vacant lot at 543 Monroe. Combined, they provide a buildable lot in the Presidential Heights Project Area. Ms. Lawrence is in a new build home with a lot having a frontage of 50'. Adding 25' would be inconsistent with existing planning and development guidelines for the Presidential Heights Project Area.

Erie Basin Marina & City Hall cafeteria (Brand -On Services): With a single vendor handling both facilities, we felt it would be useful and efficient to check both operations simultaneously. Law Department — legal services engagement process: After noticeable increases in legal fees last year, we believe an examination of the need for outside counsel is warranted. We will explore whether there are initiatives to reduce the cost of services being provided. This is an area that has never been looked at before. Human Resources Department (Division of Compensation and Benefits): We will perform an efficiency and internal control review of the health care billing process. Economic Development, Permit and Inspection Services Department — performance: There are various aspects in this department that may be outdated and ineffectual. We want to look at the 'internal processes that take the information from the field and move it through City Hall. Management Information Systems Department - inventory control policy: As thousands of dollars are spent on new equipment each year, it is reasonable to inspect what goes where and how the replacement schedule is determined. Electronic Accessories (cellphones, Blackberrys, laptops) and take -home vehicle compliance: City -owned equipment is literally floating around the City on a daily basis. It is time to develop an inventory of who has what and to ensure that safeguards exist to prevent abuse.

SIGNATURE: TO: THE COMMON COUNCIL DATE: July 23, 2007 FROM: THE DEPARTMENT OF AUDIT & CONTROL SUBJECT. Board of Parking - BCAR Management Agreement Item No. 2, C.C.P., 7/10/07 The Council has requested a response from the Comptroller regarding the revised Management Agreement submitted by the Board of Parking for Buffalo Civic Auto Ramps ( "BCAR ") and their continued operation of downtown parking facilities. As the revised agreement was very recently submitted to this office, we are continuing our review of the document and its terms. Preliminarily, we find that the services sought by the City were properly solicited. Professional services, such as the management of parking facilities, need not be let to the lowest (or highest) responsible bidder, but to the proposal that best suits the needs of the bidding agency. Based on BCAR's history of service and status as a not - for - profit corporation, it is a legitimate agency that can deliver low cost parking for the users within the Central Business District. Though the Request for Proposals was released in February 2005, it was awarded shortly thereafter to BCAR and the subsequent period has been spent preparing the contract document and otherwise awaiting Council approval. We do have concerns over the investment of funds held by BCAR and the proper role of the Comptroller's office in the handling of such investments. We would expect, in the least, that BCAR follow the City of Buffalo's investment guidelines and other regulations as promulgated by the General Municipal Law. Further, we would seek greater clarification on the use of funds as they relate to the ramps utilized in connection with area hospitals. We also share the concerns raised regarding the agency relationship created by the revised agreement. While we recognize that it is a vital component ofBCAR's ability to provide parking services without sales tax (and reduces operating costs on their purchases), we see the need to carefully examine the full extent of this relationship on the City of Buffalo. This proposition cannot be entered into lightly and there needs to be a full understanding of the roles, rights and responsibilities of the parties involved. At this time, we cannot provide an informed opinion of our conclusions of that relationship. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we believe the above issues can be worked through and support the Board of Parking's efforts to promote safe and affordable parking in the downtown central business district. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact this office. DEPARTMENT HEAD: Darby R.

By the terms of said Agreement, BRACO -I's real property tax liability was limited as to certain parcels of real property in the City of Buffalo pursuant to and in accordance with Section 236 of the National Housing Act of 1968 and Article V of the Private Housing Finance Law. Specifically, in accordance with Federal Housing Administration requirements, the Agreement imposes a real property tax ceiling in the amount of Forty Five Thousand Five Hundred Ninety -Nine Dollars ($45,599.00) on City and County Taxes for the real property identified therein. Said Agreement further provides that said real property shall be exempt from any further similar tax for a period of forty (40) years, beginning December 30, 1976. Your Honorable Body passed a resolution approving said Agreement and authorizing the tax relief provided therein on February 6, 1973. Consequently, if in any one fiscal year the combined City and County real property tax liability exceeds Forty Five Thousand Five Hundred Ninety -Nine Dollars ($45,599.00), BRACO- I is entitled to a refund of the excess taxes paid above and beyond said ceiling amount.

In the case of a broken internet connection the bill payer does not know for sure if their payment was since they do not have a confirmation number. Therefore the payer submits a duplicate payment to get a confirmation number. The City has no proactive mechanical way of determining duplicate charges on credit cards The City's Treasury receives a monthly report of web payments which they reconcile with Charge card deposits. The City's Treasury has ability to issue credits for double or over charges to bill payers credit cards using Credit card processing companies online facility. The City's treasury issues the credit on the same day over charge or double charge is reported by the bill payer or the billing department.

Case 741415 -97 -0113 AD Bedell Summary: A lengthy investigation that was started by The Buffalo Police Department and soon joined by investigators from The ATF, New York State Petroleum, Alcohol &Tobacco Bureau, IRS, Eric County Sheriffs Department, Niagara County Sheriffs Department, Michigan State Police, and The Town of Hamburg Police Department revealed that during this investigation several known and unknown defendants and one corporation in New York State did unlawfully and knowingly possess, ship, receive, transport, sell, distribute and purchase untaxed /unstamped "contraband" cigarettes from Western New York and the resell them, at a substantial profit, to several fronts in Western New York and The State of Michigan Between approximately 1994 through 1998, the defendants in this case devised a criminal scheme designed to defraud the States of New York and Michigan out of tens of millions of dollars of cigarette excise tax revenues. To facilitate this crime the defendants utilized the premises and business account of a Native American smoke shop as a "front" for the distribution of contraband cigarettes. These contraband cigarettes were resold on the black market, without payment of the required New York and Michigan cigarette excise taxes. The defendants' were able to generate tens of millions of dollars in profits. These illegal proceeds were then used to purchase additional contraband cigarettes and engage in financial transactions in various domestic and foreign financial institutions. These financial transactions involved the unlawful activities of money laundering, wire fraud, contraband cigarette smuggling, and mail. fraud. A lengthy investigation started by The Buffalo Police and soon after joined by investigators from the BATE, NYS -PAT13 and the above mentioned other law enforcement agencies revealed the defendants and others on numerous occasions did unlawfully and knowingly ship, transport, receive, possess, sell, distribute and purchase contraband cigarettes from the Western District of New York to Michigan and elsewhere. As previously noted the defendants utilized a Native American smoke shop as well as other locations in and around the Native American reservations located in the Western District or New York, as fronts for the transfer of the contraband cigarettes. This was done to avoid payment of the applicable New York and Michigan excise taxes, circumvent the Federal cigarette reporting requirements and avoid the scrutiny of law enforcement officials. The defendant company, AD Bedell, also filed with the NYS Department of Taxation and Finance, Form CG6, which contained false and misleading information. The defendants also failed to maintain accurate information relating to the true recipients of the contraband cigarettes as required by Federal law. In addition, the defendants failed to notify the State of Michigan of the identities of the defendants receiving the contraband cigarettes. Investigators were able to show through documented invoices with code names how the smoke shops knew which smuggler certain contraband product was destined for. These cases were all successfully tied back into the original conspiracy to avoid the payment of taxes. In November 1997, documented invoices, numerous arrest information, along with hours of video surveillance were presented to a grand jury. The grand jury indicted the defendants and others on a combined 1.02 counts of trafficking in contraband cigarettes. Throughout the next few years several defense attorneys were able to secure plea agreements for their clients while others went to trial and were convicted. Page Martin, of the A.D. Bedell Company .Inc., in 2004 did plead guilty to one count of racketeering conspiracy in violation of Title IS, United States Code section 1962(d), Joint asset forfeiture claims have been filed since the sentencing of Mr. Page Martin on August 12, 2005.

Pierakos -Bond Requirements PRIOR COUNCIL REFERENCE. (IMF AMY) Item No 49 , C.C.P April 17,2007 The City Charter requires a bid bond for bids exceeding $250,000. The Director of Purchasing may waive this bond if the Purchase is for less than $250,000. There are certain instances where we have determined it is important to require a bond, notwithstanding the waiver provision. Examples include cases where: 1. Equipment is needed by a deadline 2. There are public health and safety issaIes 3. A specialty product is involved 4. A company with no proven track record is utilized As an illustration, a few years ago the City ordered a weed harvester machine for the cutting; of the weeds at the Erie Basin Marina. The company that was the low bidder requested a waiver of performance bond. The Director or Purchase denied the waiver due to the fact that the company had no proven track record and the design was unique. The purchased weed harvester subsequently malfunctioned, threw the employee ofd' and sunk. When the machine was later raised, the Coast Guard declared it unsafe. The City's loss was subsequently recouped with the proceeds of the bond. ARTMENT HEAD NAME Janet Penksa TITLE.

Tutor /Monitor Cost Estimates Note: Per the RFP, we are estimating the potential cost of tutors /monitors for each test element assuming the use of external personnel. We would bill the City at direct cost for each test element plus an administrative fee to handle all responsibilities associated with tutor /monitor payment. In the 1999 -2001 examination, only physical ability test payments were handled by ES Jacobs and the direct costs for monitors approximated $165,000 at $20 per hour per monitor. For the current proposal, we have assumed a fee of $25 -$30 per hour but can adjust that fee accordingly based on the prevailing rate in Buffalo. The costs presented below are clearly estimates. Given the uncertainty associated with this line item, we cannot provide a not -to- exceed estimate. We have provided a fixed estimate for the administrative fees for each test element but can adjust those fees as well if the number of tutors /monitors involved in any given test element falls well below our ex ectations. Estimated Monitor Written FSAB Examination Payments: Assumes approximately 50 monitors for approximately 8 hours $10,000 - $12,000 each for training and administration at $25 -$30 per hour. Admin. Fee: $1,000 Physical Ability Examination (Assuming Simulation -Style Test) Estimated Monitor Assumes same costs as in 1999 -2001 at $25 -$30 per hour instead Payments: of $20 per hour. Approximately 35 monitors worked on the PAT over the course of a 2 -month period, Again, payments totaled $200,000 - $250,000 about $155,000. Admin Fee: $3,500 18 Additional Notes EB Jacobs will bill monthly based on the approval of the City of Buffalo This cost proposal will remain valid until November 21, 2007. All services provided and outputs produced (excluding final report text) will remain the intellectual property of EB Jacobs. Our clients are given a reproduction license to cover the contract period and requirements (i.e., number of candidates), but may not make any information available to third parties without written permission from EB Jacobs. Our cost estimate has been derived using our standard daily consultancy rates for public safety projects and is based upon, a) the scope of work outlined in the proposal and b) the timeline presented. If either the scope of work or timeline is changed, a modified cost proposal may be required. Our daily rates are based upon volume of work and related cost savings. Therefore, additional contract work may be conducted at slightly different rates. The cost estimate includes: EB Jacobs travel expenses; communications, mail and courier services from EB Jacobs; and general overhead'. The cost proposal assumes Priority Mail or Economy Courier Services, expedited services are available for an additional fee. The cost proposal also assumes 3 -week advance purchase airfares. The cost estimate excludes facility - related costs (acquisition, rental, furniture, equipment), litigation support services or activities beyond the scope of work. For the purpose of the Cost Proposal, we have assumed that this project will not occur under Court Oversight. However, should litigation services be required, the fee schedule in effect at the time the additional work is requested will be used to negotiate rates and policies. Our current fee schedule for litigation support and work beyond the project scope is attached. ' EB Jacobs' daily consultancy rates cover salary, benefits, rent, utilities, insurance, shared corporate services and general operating costs. 19 EB Jacobs, LLC Engagement Agreement For Litigation Support and Work Beyond Project Scope EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 2006 Litigation Support Any activity proposed during the course of the contract, that a) is quasi -legal in nature (e.g., activities performed in response to oversight from a court - appointed attorney /expert or oversight agency such as the Department of Justice pursuant to litigation and associated court requirements) including, but not limited to, supplementary data transfers, data analyses, reports, meetings and conference calls; or b) is related to existing or pending litigation (e.g., E=xpert Witness services, Fact Witness services) will be billed at the hourly rates specified in this Agreement.

The amount of the grant award is $58,750. There is no City match involved with this grant. Estimates of the financial impact on the City of Buffalo in direct costs and lack of productivity due to employee injury over the past several years exceeds $50 million. The safety training grant was sought in order to protect our employees by training them to prevent injury and also to migrate the costs associated with injury. The funds are to be used by Department of Human Resources for an employee safety- training program to be conducted by Erie Community College for workers in each city department including the Common Council and City Clerk. Sessions will provide training to individuals for proper techniques and use of appropriate equipment in carrying out their work responsibilities. The following topics will be covered in training sessions : Back injury, slips and falls, job stress, repetitive motion, protective equipment, ergonomics, workplace violence, emergency response and preparedness, hazard communication, indoor air quality, and forklift safety. In addition, a safety committee has been established not only to participate in training sessions, but more importantly to monitor the program to ensure maximum compliance and benefit and to determine areas that may be included in future grant applications. I am therefore requesting permission from your Honorable Body for the City of Buffalo to accept grant funds from the New York State Departffiwt of Labor to authorize execution of all necessary agreements to implement this grant, and to set up an apf57priate account recievable for this purpose.

The i.tnportancc of control over these neglected Ptolemies is clear from this examination. Without legal control of a property, as a corninunity we are forccd -into a reactive mode, f0.UCCd to waiting for problems to emerge or worsen before we can act Based on the remarks of C :orrimissioner iMlchaux to this body at a previous session, the Catty shoctld be commended for taking all possible steps to ensure that responsible and responsive owners are not forced front their hon7CS th -ough the tax auction. I lowever, fo.r those properties the City is unable to reach rs on, whether it be for the owners' unresponsivcti s or willingness, the agt :eet��cnt with orvttG City should commit to policy that reflects the understanding that most often the best: course is to bring these properties ruder public control so that the interests of the C ;ity's residents can be served through a variety of outcomes, each preferable to the status yuo. 11`rom a narrow view of short -term municipal ftnancc and liabilitq, adjourning unsold prohetties appeals to na:.ilce sense.

Certainly the limitcd Truman and capital resources of the City are issues to considct, however, adjournment does not redur,c the public cost, merely defra them, and there is little strategic work that can happen when properties are left ir1 lirnhc3.

Si rely, RUMPIRrn —p Hr r�(WWMITTEE 04 L - r j QW Dominic J .Bonifacio, Jr, Niagara District Councilmember :Enclosure DJB:mJJ 000c4 t. P. tin. 0 P. Q 7 L. lounal City of Buffalo MAJORITY LEADER -3, e'_ �� se's xa r ;_ calls Fz�xxi Tile City of Buffalo has lost 300,000 residents since 1950 and has been left with a tremendous oversupply of housing units and, with it, a large scale vacancy and abandonment problem. By 2000, the census was reporting 15.7% of all units in Buffalo were vacant, and several data sources suggest the problem has only gotten worse since then. Though it was often believed this was a `city issue', this new data is suggesting otherwise. Since 2000, Cheektowaga and Tonawanda have each lost population at a quicker rater than Buffalo, and recent articles in the Buffalo News highlight the fact that vacancy is quickly becoming an issue in the inner-ring suburbs. But Buffai.a is not alone. Communities across the Northeast and Midwest are struggling to cope with the proliferation of vacant and abandoned property, each to varying degrees of success. Genesee County, Michigan — home to the City of Flint —has faced major problems in a post - industrial economy, suffering a 40% population loss since 1960, but has nonetheless developed one of the unost innovative and effective ways to combat these blighting influences that drive up municipal expenses and deflate property tax - income. A land bank often stirs notions of a red circle on the ground, inside which no one will be allowed to tread; however, the reality of a modern land bank is much more dynamic and proactive. The Genesee County Land Bank's flexible structure and powers allow it to not only prepare strategic properties for productive reuse, but also to implement strategies to prevent future abandonment. Genesee's Land .Bank (www.thelandbank.org) was created through inter - municipal agreement with the County pursuant to the State of Michigan's enabling legislation. It receives one -third (113) of its funding from earned operating income, and two - thirds (213) from a combination of government appropriation (20% of total from Genesee County proper), brownfields programs (42 %), and grant support (5 %). Enacted in 1999 and improved through legislation in 2003, by December of 2004 the Land Bank had taken title to 8% of the land in the City of Flint (4,400 parcels), saved 1,350 families from foreclosure, taken over management of numerous properties at risk for abandonment, rehabbed dozens of houses, demolished 330 properties, conveyed 200 side lots to neighbors, assembled hundreds of vacant lots for non - profit and city projects, and maintained its stock of buildings and land including routine board -ups and innovative landscaping agreements funded entirely through tax foreclosure proceeds. A recent quantitative study of the Genesee County Land Batik by the land Policy Institute at Michigan State University clearly shows a properly structured land bank entity can exact positive changes on a city or region's vacant property situation. Since its formation, the Land Bank has positively influenced the values of more than 20,000 residential properties. The Institute's research shows the Land Bank to be an effective tool in stemming the problems of crime and blight associated with vacant properties. It concludes "when urban areas are losing their population, industry, and desirable neighborhoods, they can protect their property values with demolition of abandoned structures and other programs made possible by the Michigan Land Bank" enabling legislation. l� an P The time is right for positive action in Buffalo and Erie County, as vacancy problems are becoming more acute by the day, The US Postal Service recently released data on vacant and undeliverable addresses by Census Tract. These figures represent chronic vacancy, addresses that have been vacant (not collecting their mail) for 90 days or longer, as well as addresses deemed uninhabitable in their current state. From March 2006 to March 2007 Buffalo lost 1,692 deliverable addresses, representing a decrease of 1.4% of the city's total addresses. In some neighborhoods, however, the effects were far worse, with one year decreases well above 10 %, leaving them with undeliverable rates nearing a staggering 40% overall. Recently Assembly Member Hoyt introduced bill A08059, which would allow for the formation of a land bank with local control through the enabling legislation for the Empire State Development Corporation. Land Banks could then be created by a municipality or, importantly, through the cooperation of several municipalities that can mirror the form, function, and scope of the Genesee County Land Bank. In combination with the new office of Upstate Empire State Development, under the leadership of Daniel Gundersen, this bill presents a unique opportunity to realign the State's resources to fit the needs and opportunities specific to Buffalo and Erie County. While the intricacies of a local land bank's powers, structure, and funding will need to be discussed and further refined at the local. level, a land bank can be a powerful tool for redeveloping the County to create and reinforce healthy and sustainable neighborhoods. Using Genesee County as a model, a Buffalo and .Erie County land bank could be established around a framework to support • home ownership and affordable horsing; • neighborhood revitalization; • the return of property to productive tax - paying status; • land assemblage for economic development; • long -term banking of properties for future strategic uses; and • sustained funding for the land bank's operations. When the forefathers of Erie County, the City of Buffalo, and all other Iocal towns and villages designed the structure and function of these governments, coping with thousands of dilapidated properties and vacant lots was not a consideration. Current State regulations, also, complicate the process of acquiring properties and cleaning title. It is not a slight to existing governments, then, to convey that they are simply not set up to deal in a comprehensive manner with these issues on the scale we now face. By shifting these responsibilities to a land bank agency, the participating municipalities will. be in a stronger position to consider strategic redevelopment, while gaining a valuable partner that can bring additional resources and expertise to bear for the good of these communities. V and ,- ............ In order to achieve these aims in a dynamic and responsive fashion, a Buffalo land bank would need to maintain powers and programs similar to those of the Genesee County Land Bank. Assembly bill 08059, allows for each of these important programs, including: 1) property acquisition; 2) leasing, and sales; 3) expedited foreclosure and title clearance powers; 4) administration, inventory, and assessment of existing parcels and structures; 5) planning (consistent with the County and municipality's strategic plan and reinvestment strategy); 6) property management and maintenance (including "clean and green" strategies); 7) demolition; and 8) financial assistance for nonprofits to redevelop properties in targeted neighborhoods.

Obersheimer 47 Orton Place Buffalo, NY 14201 June 14, 2007 Councilman Brian Davis Room 1408 City Hall 65 Niagara Square Buffalo NY 14202 Dear Mr. Davis: I am writing to you for help. I am trying to get approval to have a parking pad installed on my property at 47 Orton Place, Buffalo 14201. I have gone through the process with the Buffalo Preservation Board and was denied approval at a May 10, 2007 meeting. I was told to go to the Common Council to appeal their decision. At that same meeting a driveway was approved on Trinity Place. There is another pad on Arlington Place that has been installed in the recent past, as well as numerous existing pads on my street. I'm at a loss as to why I can't have parking at my residence when there are numerous other parking pads throughout the neighborhood. I presented the Preservation Board with photos of them as well as photos of where my pad would go on my property. My pad, in contrast to the others, would be mostly hidden from view until you were actually upon it and will not detract from the street -scape in any 'way. I have a letter from my neighbor whose property the pad would abut stating that he has no objection as well as a petition signed by many of my neighbors stating that they have no objection. I need concrete work done on my city right of way sidewalk and the walk leading up to my front steps and was planning on doing that along with the parking pad installation. My need for a parking pad is prompted by break -ins and vandalism to my car when it's been parked on the street. Also, the parking; problems in the neighborhood are compounded because I live steps away from Kleinhan's Music Hall. I work odd shifts as a Respiratory Therapist at Sisters Hospital and often have to look for a parking spot at late hours and am concerned for my safety. Not to mention being able to have the car off the street when we have our snowstorms so the plow can get through. The parking pad would be helpful in that it would free up space for others to park. I have lived in my home for twenty years. I'd like to live here well into old age and when I am old I don't want to have to worry about having to go out and move the car from one side of the street to the other on alternate parking days in bad weather. gg With the well known decline of taxpayers in the city, wouldn't it be beneficial to look at accotl�modating the reasonable requests of the taxpayers still living in the city in order to keep them there? I have room for a parking pad and I'd like to have one put in. Please submit my request to the Common Council. I have enclosed copies of the photos of other parking pads in my neighborhood, a letter signed by my neighbor whose garage my parking pad will abut and a petition signed by neighbors stating that they have no objection to the installation. Mr. Davis I would like to meet with you, at my house if possible, so that you can see what I am talking about before my appeal is taken to the Common Council. You can contact me at 716 885 -6695.

AS your are aware, In our effort to combat destructive property flippitig, the Ail ti- F�ltpping "Cask force has considered, evaluated and recommended a number of proposals designed to rcducc or inhibit the nur:nber of properties that become available for lipping. In particular, we have made suggestions with respect to the In Rein auction proceeding, orte of Mitch was utilized last year and significantly reduced the number of In Rem properties that are flipped. We are actively seeking solutions that work to accomplish oar goal. The resolution in question is a valid proposal but is also dependent upon the City of buffalo's financial. ability to maintain or demolish those properties. If the City does have the ability to n,iainta.in or demolish all of those properties, this may be a triable solution. I owever, if the City sloes not have the resources to address the condition of those properties, their it makes .little practical sense for the city to acquire t.itac simply to have [lie properties in its possession. Some of the properties may, in f act, still have homeowners living it) thern that can ultimately pay arrears. Keeping a homeowner in a propel ty is preferable to allo -,ving it to become vacant and deteriorate until it cair he demolished at City expense. Ali analysis of these properties should be conducted F)eforC Such a determination is made. In addition, AF "IT measures that have already been enacted at the In Rem, along with additional reconairrendations made by the AFTF for upcorning In Rern auctions (See A] "IT First Year Report), are designed as safeguards to ensure that these properties are not flipped. As an alternative to this proposal, if it is not financially feasible for the City to implement it, we recommend that the Common Council and the City explore ways to transfer In Rena properties to not -for- profits and potential homeowners that will purchase the properties and stabilize neighborhoods (See AFTF First Year Report recommendation for Third Party Transfer Ordinance). It is clear that many people attend the auction in the hope of buying a home. This type of purchase should be encouraged as it stabilizes neighborhoods and reduces the number of vacancies and problem properties. Common Council Members coarld be instrumental in creating a process to identify both properties and potential purchasers in each of their districts to facilitate this goal. This is a far more preferable solution than adding to the Gay's haventory of vacant and demolition- worthy properties. Thank you for the opportunity to comment on this important issue.

WorldChangers is a mission project of the Southern Baptist conference, where teens and young adults from all denominations take part in a weeklong mission to rebuild communities. Each of the 450 participants must raise their own money to attend this project. They come with adult chaperones, many of whom are skilled in constrLICtion. This is the second year that World Changers will come to Buffalo/Niagara. This national project has worked with local coordinators Shyrl Duderwick of NUS of South Buffalo, Laura Kelly of the Old First Ward, Rev. Michael Flannery, the Hon. Henry Nowak Jr., City Housing Court, and Tom & Judy Fanning to make sure that this project is a success. Housing Court was able to recommend people in. need of help with their homes, and the staff of NHS of South Buffalo made sure that they fit the guidelines for the World Changers volunteers. This year, WorldChangers volunteers will paint and repair 32 homes across the city. NHS South Buffalo and Old First Ward provide the materials with private funds, so the work is done at no cost to the homeowner. if the Council can agree to waive permit and license fees, we will be able to put that much more into restoring our neighborhoods.

Manka Attorney at Law r �' 1767 Seneca Street B uffalo, New York 14210 Dear Mr. Manka: This is in response to your letter dated June 15, 1994, requesting that the Federal Emergency management Agency (FEMA) determine whether the following property is located within the Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA), an area that would be inundated by the 100 -year (1-- percent annual chance) flood. Requestor: Property Description: Street Address: community: County: State: Ronald Pringle S.B.L. 123.42- -3°-28 228 Fenton Street City of Buffalo Erie New York Can dune 24, 1994, we received all of the information necessary to process your request. After comparing this information to the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) map for the community referenced above, we determined that, although portions of the property mould be inundated by a 1010 --year flood, the existing structure would not. Therefore, this letter amends the map for City of Buffalo, New York, NFIP map number 360230- 0010B, dated November 18, 1981, to remove this structure from the SFHA. Because portions of the property are in the SFHA, any future construction or substantial improvements on this property remains subject to Federal, State, and local requlat.ions for floodplain management. B, C, and X zones only. Please be advised that the NFIP offers a policy designed for one- to-four-family homes in areas which are not designated as Special. Flood Hazard Area, but where flood exposure still presents a significant risk. This policy is the Preferred Risk Policy. It is a comprehensive policy that-is available to property owners in 2 A copy of this Letter of Nap Amendment is being sent to your community's official NFIP map repository where, in accordance with regulations adopted by the community when it made applica- tion to join the NFIP, it will be attached to the community's official record copy of the NFIP map which is available for public inspection. If this structure is covered by a flood insurance policy, and if the mortgage company or lending institution agrees to waive the flood insurance requirement, the NFIP will refund the premium paid for the current policy year, providing that no claim is pending or has been paid on the policy during the current policy year. To receive a refund, a written waiver or certificate must be obtained from the lending institution and presented to your insurance agent, who will process the premium refund. This response to your request is based on minimum criteria established by the NFIP. State and community officials, based on knowledge of local conditions and in the interest of public safety, may set higher standards for construction in the flood- plain. If the State of New York or the City of Buffalo have adopted more restrictive and comprehensive floeadplain management criteria., these criteria take precedence over the minimum Federal. criteria.

The removal of the building has given my neighbors and Ito new connection to the Niagara River. It has opened up the view and offers potential opportunity to enjoy the beauty of the river, not only for the residents but for everyone that travels through. It would be a great benefit to our ueighborhood and the community to preserve this area as a green space or park settirig. If that is not feasible, there are other possibilities that can allow building on the site but still retain access to the vista. At the very least, I am requesting to be involved in the city's decision making for plans for this stretch of Niagara Street to ensure public access to the river.

This letter is information pertaining to Taxicab Ordinances and the structure of taxi crab businesses in the city of buffalo. In the transportation business there are inultiple clientele, multiple contracts and different payment arrangements. The average taxicab in the city of buffalo is governed by the ordinances from city hall and delegated by the division of licenses. Companies that do multi work such as Medicaid pick -ups and corporate contract work get their contracts by offering discount rates. Medicaid accounts for example, are paid through Erie County and the way that Medicaid cars run are on mileage only. For example, ten miles at 40 cents per 1/6 mile is $24, but waiting time which is listed on all taxicabs is not included in that hire. Fric County only pays the minimum amount that the city ordinance allows them to charge the public per mile. Companies that use the federal government to help their business to continue and prosper, would like the city of buffalo to make the rates of a taxi ride per mile and drop Grne as high as possible so they can continue to do business at seeing a profit. Corporate accounts that contracted tbrough taxi companies also have their advantages for the company that makes the contract. Corporate accounts and Veterans Administrative accounts are normally at a discounted rate at either one free mile and after that mile all rates apply, or a discounted rate from a point of origin to a point of drop off. Some taxi cab companies would have the taxi committee believe that the taxi industry is in dire need of drastic change, but these companies are looking out for self- preservation and not looking at the city as a whole. For example, the gas prices have raised dramatically over the bast three years, but the taxi drivers in the industry has always persevered and came out on top. I" or example, the average car otf'of'one full tank of gas can do at least 340 miles to the tank, and to fill that vehicle frorn empty to full would cost no .more than $65. In a taxicab, half of those miles generally are dead hard miles not loaded, but en route to get a fare. The other half of those miles, are generally paid miles. 150 miles loaded would generate a profit of $360. This amount does not include the initial drop of $2.30 it takes for customers to get in the cab or waiting time. Waiting time applies when a vehicle stop at an intersection and the light is red; the average light rotation in the city is two minutes which equates to eighty cents waiting time. We at Cold Spring Taxi, fuel that it is unfair to the public to have to compete with corporate accounts, county funded organizations, and any other privately induced contracts. Our company has been in the community for over two decades serving the public and giving them what we feet is a fair price for a taxi ride in our city. 'To discriminate from contracted work to public work is not only demeaning to the public but economically segregating from corporate JUL --13 -2007 11:10A FROH: TO:8515443 P.2 America to the average wage earner. To allow members of taxi companies to approach the city of buffalo taxi committee with the idea that all rates of taxi cabs should be the same, but allowing the companies that lobby for these laws to give discounts at their own contractual and economic convenience, not only does a disservice to the community, but also shows other taxi companies that everyone does not have to follow the rules. Fligh gas prices and insurance cost are inevitable, but these are the costs we all must bear being in this line of business. We area community taxi service; we do not cater to the corporate accounts and government for business. We should not be penalized for giving our community discounts, when other taxi companies give discounts to companies and corporate America. Furthermore, we believe in our opinion that we lost a good taxi service (Fillmore Taxi) clue to the cril:orceincnt of every taxi company to riot give discounts. We believe we are not on level flaying field between taxi companies that cater to corporate accounts and government, and ourselves who are a customer service based organization. Please allow this letter to be food for thought. We have all tasted a pizza pie, but we all do not know what it takes to make a pizza.. If you need any further information on how this company serves the public, please feel free to contact us by mail, fax or phone.

AAL:PJS: 1':\wp60lmswordNpjs 1117- btjdget- raijiydaypol icy REFERRED TO THE COMMITTEE ON L _ I 1 a 000152 RESOLUTION Sponsor: Mr. Bonifacio Co- sponsors: Re: HOME RULE MESSAGE SENATE BILL #3531A, ASSEMBLY BILL #06482A, "An Act To amend the Vehicle and Traffic Law, in relation to directing the City of Buffalo to adjudicate traffic infractions." Whereas: A Bill has been introduced in the New York State Senate #3531A and New York State Assembly #06482A to amend the Vehicle and Traffic Law, in relation to directing the City of Buffalo to adjudicate traffic infractions; and Whereas: Currently the State of New York adjudicates all traffic violations in the City of Buffalo, the purpose of this legislation is to allow the City of Buffalo the same authority offered to its surrounding suburbs to adjudicate traffic violations; and Whereas: Providing Buffalo the ability to adjudicate traffic violations will allow traffic violators to receive benefits currently enjoyed by suburban residents such as the ability to attend traffic school teaching them to become better and safer drivers. Attending traffic school also allows drivers to avoid receiving infraction points on their license; and Whereas: City of Buffalo residents already pay higher insurance rates. The present traffic adjudication system impacts insurance rates for Buffalo residents by not allowing them the opportunity to utilize options available in the suburbs; and Whereas: Allowing Buffalo to adjudicate traffic violations will also provide additional revenue to the City, a benefit currently provided to suburban areas who adjudicate their traffic violations. Now Therefore Be It Resolved: That the Common Council of the City of Buffalo hereby goes on record in support Of Senate Bill #3531A and Assembly Bill #06482A "An act to amend the Vehicle and Traffic Law, in relation to Directing the City of Buffalo to adjudicate traffic infractions. Be It Further Resolved That: The City Clerk is hereby authorized and directed to forward Certified copies of this resolution to the Home Rule Counsel of the Senate and the Assembly; Assembly Speaker ShelSilver; Senate Majority Leader Joseph Bruno, and to members of the Weste n Ne York Legise demotion.

Penska Admin., Finance, Policy & Urban Affairs Room 203 City Hall Buffalo, NY 14202 RE: Request Capital Budget Amendment Bailey /Genesee Firehouse Dear Commissioner'Penska, Our department recently tools bids for construction of a new firehouse at Bailey Ave. and Genesee St. The total amount of the bids for general, HVAC, plumbing and electrical construction amounted to $3,894,825.00. At the present time, we have just over $3.4 million in cash from a prior bond sale to construct this facility. In order to move forward with this project, it would be necessary to submit a Capital Budget Amendment to the Common Council for approval in the amount of $1.0 million dollars. This would allow construction to move forward this fall and provide funds for any change orders during construction. I have discussed this issue with Fire Commissioner Lombardo and he concurs with this approach. This matter requires approval from the.Comptroller and I would request that this matter be expedited and filed for the Council Meeting of July 24, 2007.

The sender's identification is blocked, police can then "text" a message back asking for details; and Whereas: According to Boston Police Commissioner Edward Davis the "Text a Tip Program" is "... something that is more anonymous than a telephone call where you have to have a conversation with someone." Commissioner Davis believes a traditional tip line, using a toll -free telephone number to police is becoming obsolete; and Whereas: In today's world people especially young people are communicating often by way of cell phones either through telephone calls or by text messaging; and Whereas: Young people in particular are often the victims perpetrators and witnesses to criminal activity; and Whereas: The "Text a Tip Program" is a tool which uses technology utilized by young people to assist police officials with solving crimes; and Whereas: A local company named Engenus has the capability to set up a similar "Text a Tip Program" in the City of Buffalo; and Now Therefore Be It Resolved That the Buffalo Common Council supports looking into the feasibility of establishing a "Text a Tip Program" in the City of Buffalo. Be It Further Resolved That this Resolution is referred to the Police Commissioner for his thoughts on establishing a "Text a Tip Program" in Buffalo. Be It Finally Resolved That this item is referred to an appropriate Committee of the Common Council for further discussion and consideration. (} (� rd 'CA r Bonnie E.

Parks Community Center will provide a needed program to the public and will also allow the Center to earn unrestricted income to help them with their expenses; and Therefore Be It Resolver: That the City of Buffalo hereby approves an amendment to its lease with University Heights Community Development Association to allow a sublease with Kids n Play for occupancy at 3242 Main Street for a period of five (5) years.

Thompson has introduced a bill 54520 in Albany that would create legislation to aid in the assistance of obtaining technical, managerial, financial and other business assistance for certified businesses and applicants; and Whereas: Senate Bill 54520 would establish within the Empire State Development Corporation and. the Office of Minority Women Business Enterprise (MWBE) a Regional Advocate. The bill would also establish the powers and duties to include investigating con concerning certification delays and a toll -free telephone service; and Whereas: Additionally Senate Bill S4520 amends the Economic Development Law to set forth reporting requirements and advise the Commissioner on recommendations for the selection of a Statewide Advocate for Minority and Business Enterprises as set forth by section 3110a of the Executive Law; and Whereas: It is essential for MWBE's to be able to get assistance from the state to move therm into a competitive position with non- minority and women owned business enterprises. This legislation provides a vehicle to assure that this goal is met; and Now, "Therefore, Be It Resolved That: the Buffalo Common council goes on record in full support of Senate Bill S4520, "An Act to amend the executive law and the economic development law, in relation to creating a minority and women owned business enterprise advocate "; and Be It further Resolved That: Upon adoption of this resolution, the City Cleric is hereby directed to send certified copies of this resolution to Governor Eliot L.

J ADOPT RESOLUTION By: Mr. Smith Y RE: Support Repealing Section 530.11. of the NYS Labor Lary -to Provide Unemployment Benefits to Non- professional Scbool Employees between Academic Terms Whereas: Part -year workers such as school cafeteria, school bus drivers and other non- professional school workers, are among those who are most heavily hit by restrictive New York State eligibility policies for collecting unemployment insurance benefits. These low wage workers are left without an income when their labor is not needed over the long academic vacation periods; and Whereas: This leaves these workers with the monumental task each year of earning an income to support their families during these long vacations periods, by finding alternate employment with employers willing to employ them, knowing that they will be leaving after a three month period, to return to their full time jobs, once the vacation period has ended; and Whereas: In 1991 Congress passes amendments to the Federal Unemployment Tax Act (FUTA) that gave New York State the option of providing unemployment insurance benefits to non - professional school employees between academic terms. New York State could restore eligibility to these low -wage school workers by repealing section 590.1.1 of the Labor Law; and Whereas: It is the duty and the desire of this Council to protect the rights and the quality of life for all the residents in the City of Buffalo, especially the less fortunate. Now, Therefore, Be It Resolved That: The Buffalo Common Council urges the members of the New York State Legislature and the Governor to end the unfair unemployment insurance disqualification of Educational fart - time workers by enacting legislation that would immediately repeal section 590.11 of the NYS Labor Law, by allowing non - professional school workers to be eligible to receive NYS Unemployment Insurance benefits for the time they are laid -off between school terms; and Be It Further Resolved (Fhat: This Comm( goes on record in full support of repealing sect;_; 59( } 1 oft the NYS`, Labor Tart; and Be It Finally Resolved "that: rlpon passage of this resolution the City Clerk is hereby directed to forward certified copies of this resolution to Governor Eliot L. Spitzer, members of the Western New York delegation to the state legislature and WNY AFL -CIO Labor Council for their review and comments. 4 A (E' , DE ONE A.
