The project also includes the restoration of all load - bearing masonry supporting the floor and roof structure and parapets. A new roof structural system and insulated roof deck and single ply membrane roofing system will also be included in this phase. Prior to the implementation of the above - referenced project, the requirements of the New York State Environmental Quality Review Act (SEQR) must be satisfied. The project, as defined under SEQR, is a Type I Action for which the completion of a coordinated environmental assessment is required. In accordance with Section 617.6 of the regulations, an agency responsible for determining the effect of this action on the environment must be designated from the involved agencies. The Buffalo Preservation Board proposes to act as the SEQR Lead Agency for this project. Consent by the City of Buffalo Common Council is required. The project environmental assessment form is attached. IN a =3 80,41 Ch 011101 Ism 1 TITLE. City Planner Andrew Eszak SIGNATURE OF DEPARTMENT HEAD: MEW N 697 „2(l Appendix A ,state Environmental Quality Review FULL, ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT FORM Purpose. The full EAF is designed to help applicants and agencies determine, in an orderly manner, whether a project or action may be significant. The question of whether an action may be significant is not always easy to answer. Frequently, there are aspects of a project that are subjective or unmeasurable. It is also understood that those who determine significance may have little or no formal knowledge of the environment or may not be technically expert in environmental analysis. In addition, many who have knowledge in one particular area may not be aware of the broader concerns affecting the question of significance. The full EAF is intended to provide a method whereby applicants and agencies can be assured that the determination process has been orderly, comprehensive in nature, yet flexible enough to allow introduction of information to fit a project or action. Full EAF Components: The full EAF is comprised of three parts: Part 1: Provides objective data and information about a given project and its site. By identifying basic project data, it assists a reviewer in the analysis that takes place in Parts 2 and 3. Part 2: Focuses on identifying the range of possible impacts that may occur from a project or action. It provides guidance as to whether an impact is likely to be considered small to moderate or whether it is a potentially -large impact. The form also identifies whether an impact can be mitigated or reduced, Part 3: If any impact in Part 2 is identified as potentially- large, then Part 3 is used to evaluate whether or not the impact is actually important.

The project will not result in any large and important impact(s) and, therefore, is one which will not have a significant impact on the environment, therefore a negative declaration will be prepared. B. Although the project could have a significant effect on the environment, there will not be a significant effect for this Unlisted Action because the mitigation measures described in PART 3 have been required, therefore a CONDITIONED negative declaration will be prepared.* O C. The project may result in one or more large and important impacts that may have a significant impact on the environment, therefore a positive declaration will be prepared. *A Conditioned Negative Declaration is only valid for Unlisted Actions Partial Demolition and Stabilization of 918 -920 Main St. Name of Action Buffalo Preservation Board Name of Lead Agency Michele B:rozek Knoll Senior Planner- City of Buffalo Print or Type Name of ............... e Responsible Officer in Lead Agency Sig "Ji�r�4'”` g of Responsible fficer in Lead Agency website Title of Responsible Officer Signature of Preparer (if different from responsible officer) Date rage 1 of 11 PART 1-- PROJECT INFORMATION � Prepared by Project Sponsor e NOTICE: This document is designed to assist in determining whether the action proposed may have a significant effect on the environment.

K TAB:ntty t: %%yp 6 0 \msw or& - mv\U I -S a. d o c FROM THE COMPTROLLER Jan 5, 2010 00005 TO: THE COMMON COUNCIL FROM: THE DEPARTMENT OF AUDIT & CONTROL DATE: December 31, 2009 SUBJECT: Audit Report ---- Division of Compensation & Benefits -- Department of Human Resources Response It is not the normal practice of the Department of Audit and Control to provide a rebuttal to a department's response to an audit report, but in light of the misrepresentations and misunderstandings presented in the Department of Human Resources' response to the Medical, Dental and Case Management Processing and Payments Audit, it is apparently necessary. We would note that it is highly unusual, if not unprecedented, that a department has made such an effort to both deny any responsibility for its shortfalls, and attempt to lay the blame almost entirely upon the auditing authority. It represents, at best, a failure to understand the role of the auditing function in City government, and at worst, a blatant lack of comprehension of the functions of the department being audited. In the broadest sense, Human Resources' response (hereinafter, the "Response ") casts the failings of the Division of Compensation and Benefits onto the Department of Audit and Control ( "A&C ") by virtue of the lack of a Senior Accountant to aid in the processing of information for the Division. This effort is erroneous for a number of reasons that lie completely within the responsibility of the Department of Human Resources. First, proper Human Resources staffing is the responsibility of the Commissioner, not the Department of Audit and Control. The Commissioner is laboring under the serious misconception that A &C has some role in assigning accounting personnel to her department. Upon the death of the employee in that (or any) department, it is incumbent upon the Commissioner to seek a replacement. A &C does not have any exclusive right to hold or employ accounting titles, and never prevented Human Resources from requesting a replacement Senior Accountant. The failure to request an accountant in their annual budget request falls squarely upon the department head. It has been incorrectly posited that the Senior Accountant was assigned to Human Resources from A &C, when in fact; she was a Human Resources employee. Second, the Commissioner cites an agreement that Audit & Control would assume the responsibilities of the deceased employee. However, there is no such agreement. The Comptroller, the City Accountant and the City Auditor would never have agreed to assume the processing responsibilities of a Human Resources employee. An agreement like that would undermine the very nature of the auditing function, and is a gross misunderstanding of what audit does with respect to the process. Third, the employee at issue died in 2004. The Response ties a number of problems to this vacancy, which means the department head has done nothing to address it for FIVE years. f, s£ 9 4 Event with the acknowledgement that the department changed hands during that period, it strains credulity that this essential function was left unfilled all of this time, and according to the Commissioner, that somehow the fault lies at the feet of the Department of Audit & Control. The staffing and skill sets required to operate the department and its divisions are the responsibility of the department head. That person must recognize what is necessary to properly administer the day - today needs of the department's operation, and make the appropriate requests at budget time to fill them. That clearly was never done. We will now address the various points in which the Response attempts to sidestep or avoid culpability. Many of these issues circle back to the false claim that Audit and Control failed to provide proper staff support. I. General Overview Human Resources' Response seemingly was developed with the notion that the Division of Compensation and Benefits made no mistakes in the processing of medical and dental payments, and that any failings were due to the lack of Audit and Control assistance. The Response disagrees with every finding, regardless of the type of corrective action that may be necessary or is currently underway. The department fails to recognize the audit as a diagnostic tool to aid the department, and instead implicitly views it as an accusatory instrument. The Response questions the job duties as provided in the City Charter. The recitation is meant only to inform the reader of the stated duties of the Division of Compensation and Benefits. 11, Health Now (Blue Cross /Blue Shield) — Medical 1. We do not dispute that the City engages in self-billing. The problem is that self- billing, left in the hands of the Division of Compensation and Benefits, is being done incorrectly, and all errors must be found by Audit personnel. It is Audit's job to check the calculations as performed by the Division, not to perform the calculations for the Division. The Response seems to agree with the Comptroller's suggested use of the City payroll system as a reconciliation tool, so there should not be any disagreement with our finding. 2. The failure to give timely notification of COBRA rights is a potential liability for the City due to penalties which could be incurred by the City. Nor is it responsible to knowingly maintain inaccurate records under the pretense that there is no financial cost to the City. Actuarial data is needed from these records and the City cannot make proper projections without correct information maintained by this Division. 3. The source information for Compensation and Benefits' $526,309.57 double - payment of employee bills, which resulted in an overpayment to Health Now was fully explained in the April 1, 2009 letter. Any additional information necessary was always in the possession of the Division; it sprang from their own records. ' We would note that the Law Department reviewed Hurnan Resources' response to the audit. 4, The improper allocation of costs is another example where there is agreement that the Audit is correct, but the problem is purportedly due to Audit and Control not assuming the responsibilities of the deceased accountant, not the department itself. Ill. GHI Dezital There is acknowledgement that the corrective action suggested by the Comptroller will resolve any reconciliation problems. There should be no disagreement with the audit. IV. Rates Paid for Medical and Dental Insurance It was never suggested that Brown and Brown be replaced. We questioned the payment arrangement, which has ethical and loyalty considerations. The value of their services was not at issue, and frankly, the vigorous defense of Brown and Brown makes one wonder even more about the nature of the relationship inasmuch as they are paid by the insurer. V. Case Management — IOD It is acknowledged that late payment was due to the actions of the vendor, yet the Division disagrees with the finding. The point is not that there were no financial penalties, it is acknowledging responsibility for recognizing and correcting a problem. The remaining comments largely flow from the lack of accounting staff within the department. There is clearly a disconnect relative to the appropriate role a separate audit function has in the overall processing of departmental accounts payable. When errors are detected by the Audit Division, it is incumbent upon the department responsible for the bill or invoice to correct the problem. The Audit Division cannot and should not bear this responsibility for any City department. We exist to check their work, not to do it for them. END NOTES Normally, we would reserve comment on the findings of an audit until after the exit conference. However, due to the numerous problems identified by the audit, we stepped in to assist in instituting reforms immediately over the past few weeks and months. In many ways, we went above and beyond our role in order to make sure the City of Buffalo retained its relationship with Health Now without adverse consequence. We have facilitated meetings with their vendors, paid bills prior to fully auditing them in order to prevent service disruptions and advised there how to proceed going forward. They acknowledge the need for an accountant, yet when this department advises them, said advice is disregarded until this audit. We find it frustrating that the department head has done little to take ownership or control over this reform effort. It is her department that interacts with these vendors, yet in the face of these payment problems, she allowed A &C to take the reins and seek resolution of any problems. There has also been a problematic tendency to avoid the minutia of the department's operations, despite our efforts to involve her in the solution. There has been constant communication between Audit & Control and Compensation & Benefits over the years. We have been operating under the belief that the Department of Human Resources was properly equipped to handle the administration of its duties. As evidenced by the Response, they are in serious need of guidance, which we will continue to provide. At some point, however, the Department needs to take back full responsibility and allow A &C to assist in the essence of its core function — to act as a check and balance on other departments. If you have any further questions or issues, please feel free to contact the Department of Audit and Control. REFERRED O THE COMMIT ON FINANCE.

The Director of Compensation and Benefits is appointed by the Commissioner of Human Resources and is a Deputy to the Commissioner. The Division is responsible under the City Charter for the administration and coordination of all employee benefit and wellness programs, and for the establishment of salary surveys and merit pay programs consistent with the City's performance appraisal system including, where possible, incentive pay programs designed to provide competitive pay in order to attract highly qualified persons. (Article 11, Section I 1 -12 of the City Charter). The scope of our audit was an examination of the efficiency of the Division in the processing and payment of medical, dental and Injured -on -Duty case management invoices for the period of July 1, 2006 through and including December 31, 2008. We expanded the time of our original audit period to observe any changes the Division made in the processing functions, and timeliness of payments. Some improvements were made, but with the further intervention by the Department of Audit and Control, .much work still needs to done. While examining the various payments we became aware of a larger problem. As explained in the audit, there were major problems with the accuracy of the payments made to both the medical and dental insurers. The payments made for case management were accurate, but consistently late. There would seem to be a fundamental lack of proficiency within the operation of the department. Better use of technology and available resources would improve performance considerably. The department's response to the audit was perplexing in that it lacks any sense of responsibility for the current state of the department. We will address the response in a separate filing. If you have any further questions on this matter, please feel free to contact the Department of Audit and Control. R RIE-D TO ME COMMITT ON iN. DEPARTMENT HEAD: Andrew A. SanFilippo TITLE: Comptroller f� SIGNATURE: CITY OF BUFFALO DEPARTMENT OF AUDIT & CONTROL, AUDIT REPORT ON THE DIVISION OF COMPENSATION & BENEFITS MEDICAL, DENTAL and CASE MANAGEMENT PROCESSING and PAYMENTS COMPTROLLER ANDREW A. SANFILIPP* FOR THE PERIOD JULY 2006 --- DECEMBER 2008 DARRYL McPUERSON CITY AUDITOR DECEMBER 2009 GENERAL OVERVIEW The Division of Compensation and Benefits is part of the Department of Human Resources. The Director of Compensation and Benefits is appointed by the Commissioner of Human Resources and is a Deputy to the Commissioner. The Division is responsible under the City Charter for the administration and coordination of all employee benefit and wellness programs, and for the establishment of salary surveys and merit pay programs consistent with the City's performance appraisal system including, where possible, incentive pay programs designed to provide competitive pay in order to attract highly qualified persons. (Article 11, Section 11 -12 of the City Charter). The scope of our audit was an examination of the efficiency of the Division in the processing and payment of medical, dental and Injured -on -Duty case management invoices for the period of July 1, 2006 through and including December 31, 2008. We expanded the time of our original audit period to observe any changes the Division made in the processing functions, and timeliness of payments. While some improvements were made, as we will describe in the Comments and Recommendations section, much work still needs to done. While examining the various payments we became aware of a larger problem. As we shall explain, there were major problems with the accuracy of the payments made to both the Medical and Dental insurers. The payments made for case management were accurate but consistently late. HEALTH NOW (BLUE CROSS/BLUE SHIELD) - MEDICAL Originally we intended to examine and test six (6) months in our audit, but as it became apparent during our testing that there were significant problems in this area, we expanded it to 24 months. At some point before our audit period the Division of Compensation and Benefits decided they no longer would reconcile their records with the bills provided by Health Now. In interviews with Health Now and the Director of Compensation and Benefits, we were told that the City informed Health Now they no longer wanted the bills from the insurer. This was confirmed by the Director of Compensation and Benefits. According to the Division Director, the City was self-billing, making changes, sending them to the insurer and making payments based on data runs provided by the Department of Management Information ,Systems (MIS). No reconciliation was being made between the data on the City system with that of the insurer. There appears to have been no coordination with or verification of changes between Health Now's records and those on the City payroll system. Basically, if an employee wanted to change any information, address, etc., it had to be made in both places. It does not appear that all f timekeepers or employees were aware of this requirement by the Division of Compensation and Benefits. During the period of the audit, the Audit Division's Accounts Payable section discovered that former employees and deceased employees were still being carried on the City records, and many employees were being carried in the active file when, in fact, they were retired. Combined, these caused overpayments and rendered any valid analysis of costs impossible. Originally discovered in September 2006, these were adjusted in November 2006, but it should be noted the adjustments were made using an adjustment program containing flaws which we will describe in later comments, Despite this discovery, the Division continued to make payments without a monthly reconciliation of neither the insurer's bills nor, it appears, with the City's own payroll records. The Division of Compensation and Benefits "double --- paid" the bills for employees covered under the Enterprise Fund for the months of May, June, and July of 2008. The amount of the overpayment was $526,309.57. A letter was sent to the Commissioner of Human Resources by the Division of Audit on April 1, 2009 informing her of the overpayment and asking her to request a refund from Health Now. To date, we do not believe this has occurred. The Division of Compensation and Benefits utilizes a program supplied by the Department of Management Information Systems to enter changes and calculate adjustments for their self- billing. In discussions with an MIS analyst, we were informed that the program is only a guide. It is only as good as the information entered, and timeliness in entry is a factor. It does not break out rates for adjustments over different periods. It uses only one rate, so any adjustment for more than one rate period will be incorrect, and must be adjusted manually. According to MIS, the Division of Compensation and Benefits was informed of these limitations and the need to verify adjustments. It does not appear that there was any consistent effort made to effectuate corrections. There was no effort made to allocate accurate costs to the various funds responsible for medical costs, with all adjustments being charged to the General Fund, resulting in improper allocation of expenses. In some months all adjustments were charged to active General Fund employees, despite a clear breakout between active and retirees on the MIS program. GHI - DENTAL Effective March of 2008, the City changed the way Dental coverage is provided to its employees. Prior to this time the City paid a flat fee to the insurer for each employee which varied depending on the coverage provided by the group or which classification an employee belonged. Since March 2008, the City pays GHI an administrative fee for each covered employee, and pays the claims as they occur. Many of the same problems encountered with the Medical bills were also evident in our examination of the Dental bills. We saw months where no adjustments were made, where the amount from the previous month was repeated as payment, where the GI-11 bill was used for reconciliation and months where it was not. As with the Medical adjustments, the same problems existed. The problem once again was incorrect rates for many of the adjustments, with multiple period adjustments causing the greatest problem, but also with the wrong rates for single years. During June 2008, it appears that an effort to reconcile the GHl bill, the Human Resources database and the City payroll was made. There were numerous adjustments made but almost exclusively, the corrections were only made for the three month period when the City shifted to a self - insured system with an administrative fee. Adjustments that should have been made for periods beyond the three months were not done. These monthly payments were much higher than the original three taken, as the City paid a flat fixed rate for employees at that time which was significantly higher than the thirteen dollar administrative fee. RATES PAID FOR MEDICAL AND DENTAL INSURANCE The City pays various amounts for medical insurance based on negotiated rates for various employee groups based on coverage and other options and factors. These differ for different groups such as various unions and for exempt employees. A yearly charge is determined through negotiation by the City and Blue Cross and GHI for Dental coverage, which is then paid on a monthly invoice. Brown and Brown of New York Insurance have been representing the City in these negotiations. After conducting a search of the City Accounts Payable system, we could find no payment for this service. Upon discussion with the Director of the Division of Compensation and Benefits, we were informed that they are paid by the Insurer. Obviously, this raises concerns regarding as to which entity Brown and Brown is accountable. According to the Director this practice was started by a former Commissioner and has carried forward. CASE MANAGEMENT — INJURED ON DUTY The City currently contracts with Coventry Health Care Workers Compensation, Inc. to fulfill its responsibilities as service provider of disability benefits for Police and hire workers injured in the performance of their duty pursuant to Section 207 -a and Section 207- c of the General Municipal Law of the State of New York, as stated in paragraph 2 of the Coventry contract. We examined and tested three hundred and thirty dine invoices (339) from eighty-four (84) service orders dated for the period covered by our audit (July 1, 2006 — December 31, 2008). We found no errors in the amount due and the amount paid. The payments however, were all late. The causes of the late payments appear to be the result of actions by both the department and the vendor. On the one hand the vendor failed to provide required documents in a timely manner. Conversely, the department made errors in identifying funding sources, the amount needed, and the amounts available; apparently misunderstood the contract processing procedures required by both the City and the Buffalo Fiscal Stability Authority; and lacked any sense of urgency in payment processing. All these delays and misunderstandings assured that payments would not and could not be paid in a timely manner. COMMENTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS Many of the problems encountered with the medical and dental payments appear to have resulted from the loss of the employee previously responsible for the processing of these payments. We feel this emphasizes the importance of instituting a rotation of duties among the various Division employees. Other than the Director most of the employees share the same title and required qualifications. Proper cross - training in the duties required for the various functions of the Division will result in improved efficiency and flexibility. Our analysis of the medical and dental adjustments shows that there are numerous errors in the rates used, due to limitations in the program used to calculate the amounts, The adjustments must be manually calculated, especially when the period of adjustment is over more than one rate period. It also requires verification with what was entered for the adjustment time period. If information is entered by Division personnel incorrectly, it can be reviewed as part of the reconciliation process. If it is not properly reconciled, the errors go undetected. While our audit period started in July 2006, we believe the problem predates this. There are numerous rates depending on the year and employee pay group (union, exempt, and survivor) involved. If bills and adjustments are verified and reconciled monthly, when bills are received, this process is simple and straightforward. When they are not addressed in a timely manner, reconciliation becomes complicated and time - consuming. We recommend that the Division meet with the data processing departments for both the City and the health insurance vendors to facilitate the processing of invoices and allow for easier review and reconciliation. Determining the proper payments for the audit period requires an exhaustive analysis far beyond the scope of this audit. It will require a determination of the validity of not only the proper rates for the various periods for the applicable union, exempt, and survivors groups, but also verification of the data entered by the Division's employees against the information on the City's payroll database, and the records maintained by Health Now and GHI. There are also tinning issues regarding notification of loss of benefits and COBRA availability, as to when the City could cease providing benefits. As confirmed by the Director, the City has a 30 day post - termination notice period. It appears that the failure of the Division to give such notice caused payments for periods when the City should not have been responsible. In June 2008, the Division did a reconciliation of the GHI bills. They found numerous adjustments, but adjustments were only done for a maximum of three months. This coincides with the time frame when the City switched from paying a flat fee to paying per claim with an administrative fee. As an example we will follow the procedure used in the case of a white collar employee for whom the City incorrectly paid for dental coverage for one year. The Division took an adjustment in June 2008 for three months (March, April and May). The adjustment amounted to $39.00 which is equal to the administrative fee for 3 months ($13.00 x 3 months). Prior to these three months the City paid GHI $57.12 a month, the flat fee rate that was in effect at that time. This amount totaled 514.08 ($57.12 x 9 months). In this case the City paid $514.08 for this employee for insurance the employee was not entitled to and the City should not have been responsible for. By not taking the full adjustment the City received only a $39.00 adjustment on a $553.08 overpayment. There were numerous adjustments of this type for periods longer than the three months in the .tune 2008 payment. The City also offers employees the option of receiving payments "in-lieu" of insurance as an incentive to save the City the full cost of insurance for employees who do not need this benefit. We found employees listed as coming from in -lieu onto the City insurance program who received checks for the time period they were being adjusted for, and others who were listed as going to in -lieu but received no check. There should be a full review of procedures to follow in order to do a thorough reconciliation. Attention to rates and verification of status dates should be done with the City's database. Verification of in -lieu payments should be obtained from the City payroll and compared to those receiving medical and dental benefits yearly when the various groups receive payment. « As far as those payments made on behalf of employees who were not notified on a timely basis of their COBRA rights, research should be done on those who chose not to exercise these rights and did not use the insurance during this period. Refunds from Health Now and GHI for prior payments made should be requested. • We are recommending that the Division discuss with the medical and dental vendors a time frame that is practicable and agreeable to all patties to review the changes in coverage and to perform a fill reconciliation of City records with those of the Vendors. We are also recommending that prior to this, and on a regular basis going forward, the Division confirms any status change such as retirement or death with the City's payroll records, the New York State Retirement System, and the Social Security Death Master File. Yearly confirmations should be sent to retirees requiring notarized confirmation of current address and coverage. As an ongoing practice, the Division should request any life status changes (marriage, births) for employees entitled to benefits from the Department of Management Information ,Systems on a regular schedule to help insure that the status of employees is accurate and complete. • There was an attempt by Health Now to reconcile their records with those of the City. The Director was not able to supply details, other than that the City disputed the results. It appears that the reconciliation included the period up to March 2007. There is no record of any follow -up action taken by either party as a result of this. • As of the date of this report, there has been very little movement towards any reform in the practices of the Division in regards to improving the efficiency of their processing of payments made for the services reviewed in our audit. Despite knowledge of the limitations of the calculation function of the MIS program, medical payments are being submitted for payment without verification of amounts. Numerous errors are being found by the Comptroller's Accounts Payable personnel, which indicate a lack of understanding of the Division's responsibility in the processing of these payments. There was at Ieast one instance when the threat of passible denials of service or imposition of interest charges on late payments was discussed in an email by the representative of Brown and Brown regarding payments owed to GHI. While no such action was taken, bills still continue to be late. There has been an employee assigned to the processing of the GHI bill, and while there are improvements in some areas, the backlog needs to be cleared up. As of the last week of August 2009, GHl is paid only through November 2008 for administrative fees, and through June 2009 for claims. Our understanding is an employee has been assigned to this since January 2009, so the delay in processing is problematic and needs to be addressed. ® Payments for Health Now Medical are being received on a more regular basis, but continue to be presented without reconciliation or verification of adjustment and rate r� accuracy by the Division before submission to Accounts Payable for payment. As an example the Health Now June 2009 was submitted to Accounts Payable for payment despite having some errors. There were misclassifications, one over a year old; there were former employees on the bill, one a former exempt director from Human Resources who resigned January 1, 2009, and a former active employee who died in April 2009. When informed of these, the Director noted that three of the above were not yet informed of the rights under Federal Cobra law and had to be paid until these former employees received thirty (30) days notice. The Director informed Accounts Payable that she did not make changes in .Tune because she did not have time. As this is a major cost center in the City budget and a responsibility of this Division, this explanation requires further examination. e The lack of timely notification of Cobra rights during the period audited appears to have caused significant payment of benefits for which the City should not have been responsible. The payment for benefits to former employees, or employees on extended leave awaiting possible approval for New York Mate disability pensions was cited as being done according to City policy. We were not given any proof of this policy or agreements made with individuals or unions. When asked we were told that it is a case by case situation, but when pressed were told it is allowed for all in this situation. We were not able to verify this. ® In some months support data for individual group listings presented with monthly payments did not match accompanying summary sheets. We found that in these instances, summary sheet data appeared to be compiled on a date different than that of the support sheets. This should not happen as verification of payment accuracy is best achieved with data obtained from the same time period. We also note the lack of a contract renewal and payment for IOD case management services, which should have been achieved. The Coventry contract expired in June 2009. Though there are funds available in the account, as of the last week of August 2009, no payments for these services have been processed for the current fiscal year. As a result, it can be expected that the City will fall behind in making timely payments for these matters. There needs to be a change in the sense of urgency and prioritization of functions within the Division. The Director is currently processing the medical payments which, when combined with other duties, are not receiving the appropriate level of attention. This is a function which should be done by the staff. As stated earlier, the process when performed properly and in a timely manner should be routine. ® The use of Brown and Brown as an agent for the City is problematic, and presents an obvious conflict. Any consultant used to negotiate on the City's behalf should be employed and compensated by the City. It is not normal practice to be represented in negotiations by an agent employed by those with whom the agent is negotiating. This practice has to cease immediately. This change will eliminate any doubt as to the allegiance of the consultant and to the fairness of any rates negotiated. r On the positive side, analysis of the move to self - insurance with independent administration of dental, although in effect for a short time, shows promise in reducing the monthly costs of these benefits. CONCLUSION The manner of processing payments by this Division must change. Employees need to be proficient in various functions, so the loss or absence of one employee does not cause a backlog in the workload. There needs to be more attention to detail, and effective use of resources available such as reports generated by MIS reflecting personnel changes that have been submitted to payroll. These are readily available and should be used. There should be a system of checks and balances, one person enters changes and another reviews for accuracy and validity. Invoices from vendors should be requested and all changes submitted for the previous month should be reviewed and their inclusion on the vendor's invoice verified. In short, monthly reconciliations should be performed. All departments need to be made aware of the procedures necessary to inform Human Resources of any life changes. There is a Human Resource module on the City's operating system (MUNIS) that currently is not being utilized. The Director or Commissioner should meet with the MIS Department and explore the possible uses of this program. Perhaps this would facilitate successful integration of all employee life data within the City's operating system for all applicable uses. Increased communication between the City's MIS Department and the insurers' information technology personnel is also called for. The problem with case management late payments can be resolved with a better understanding of the contract approval process which should have been attained after the previous year's ordeal. Experience on the past two contracts regarding required information and documents should allow for an efficient processing of future contracts. However, to date there has been no improvement in this area. The Director should delegate more of the day -to -day functions she is currently attempting to perform to the staff to prevent delays created by her managerial functions from interfering with the timely and efficient processing of payments. To date there has been much discussion on improvements, but no verifiable progress as of this date. AFTERWORD On December 22, 2009, an exit conference was conducted with the Commissioner of Human Resources and two of her deputies. They were previously provided with a copy of this audit for comment. Prior to the conference, the Commissioner had prepared a written response to the audit, which is attached to this report. She Felt the audit was helpful to her in identifying problems within her department and she did not refute any of the facts contained within the audit. The written response attributes many of the issues to the lack of proper staff with an accounting background. Given the depth of the response, the issues raised will be addressed in a separate communication to the Council. CITY OF BUFFALO }: DEPARTMENT OF HUMAN RESOURCES BYOWN W. BROWN MAYOR Mr. Darryl McPherson City Auditor Department of Audit and Control Comptroller's Office 1250 City Hall Buffalo, New York 14202 Dear Mr. McPherson, December 14, 2009 r KARLA L. THOMAS COMMISSIONER Attached, please find my response to your correspondence dated November 10, 2009. My Staff and I have reviewed the findings of the audit and worked painstakingly to identify their accuracy, origin and resolution. First, I would like to thank the Comptroller's office for conducting this audit. It has given me a chance as a new Commissioner to take an in -depth look at the operation of the Division of Compensation and Benefits. While some issues revealed in the audit bear explanation and culpability outside of the Compensation and Benefits department, mutual collaboration on their remedy will yield solutions that will ensure smoother, more accountable operation of this department. I am respectfully requesting you contact my confidential secretary, Jacqueline White, at ext. 9624 to schedule an exit conference to discuss your findings and my response at your earliest convenience. Looking forward to meeting with you in the near future I remain, Cc: Andrew San Filippo, Comptroller Darby R. Fishkin, CPA Encl. Sincerely, K rla L. Thomas, Commissioner City of Buffalo Human Resources IIN .`C LP, '6 WV G 1 3 600 1 •_i 65 NIAGARA SQUARE/ 1007 CITY HALL/ BUFFALO, NY 14202-3310/ (716) 851 -9624 /FAX (716) 8514968 / M"V.6ty- b 4fa1G.coni f r 4�_ I. General Overview Pursuant to §7--7 of the City Charter and Code, the Department of Human Resources, Division of Compensation and Benefits offers the following response to the November 2009 "Audit Report on the Division of Compensation and Benefits: Medical, Dental and Case Management Processing and Payments." As §7 -7 of the Charter prescribes, the Department will identify each of the issues or criticisms raised in the Audit Report and respond by expressing its agreement or disagreement with the City Auditor's Findings and a plan for implementing the solutions to the identified problems together with a time table for doing so where appropriate. The Department trusts that the Comptroller will include this response in its entirety within its final Audit Report. The City Auditor states that the Division of Compensation and Benefits (hereinafter "the Division ") is responsible under the City Charter for the administration and coordination of all employee benefit and wellness programs, and for the establishment of salary surveys and merit pay programs consistent with the City's performance appraisal system including, where possible, incentive pay programs designed to provide competitive pay in order to attract highly qualified persons. It should be noted from the outset that' the job description for the Director of Compensation and Benefits in the City Charter is a general outline and does not include the day --to- day duties of the position and that numerous efforts have been undertaken to clarify the accuracy of activities listed in the Charter for this title, as, for example, salary surveys are functions of the Division of Budget and performance appraisals have not, as of yet, been successfully negotiated with the bargaining units. It should be noted that to date, the City Auditor's expansion of the original audit to observe any changes within the Division failed to yield any substantive changes in the relationship between the Division and the Department of Audit and Control (hereinafter "the Department "). Lastly, my predecessor removed the Sr. Accountant position from the Human Resource budget with the understanding and mutual agreement that the Audit Department would absorb the duties formerly performed by the late Roberta Coax, who was assigned to the Compensation and Benefits Department. The Department's continued postponement of assigning the agreed upon Sr. Accountant to facilitate the changes recommended in its' own Audit Report precludes the Division from satisfactorily addressing the problems cited in the Audit, 1 / t tit II. Health Now (Blue Cross /Blue Shield) — Medical The City Auditor snakes four critical assessments of the Division in this section. 1, Issue: The Division decided that it would no longer reconcile its records with the bills provided by HealthNow and no longer wanted bills from the insurer, as the City instead opted to self -bill, make changes on adjustment sheets, send them to the insurer and make payments based on data runs provided by the Department of Management and Information Systems. There was no reconciliation being made between the data on the City system and that of the insurer. Therefore, if an employee wanted to change any information (i.e, address, etc.), it had to be made in both places and City personnel were not aware of this requirement. 1. Response: The Division Disagrees. The Division respectfully disagrees with the implications contained in this issue. While the Audit implies that the City decided to change to self-billing shortly before the Audit was undertaken, in fact the Division began the practice of self-billing in 1993. The self - billing system used by the Division was separate and distinct from the City's Payroll System and would be reconciled with HealthNow on a monthly basis using adjustment sheets. Thus, any changes made in employee status or information would be detailed on adjustment sheets provided to HealthNow by the Division and it would then be incumbent upon F lealthNow to make the changes detailed in the adjustment sheets on its system. Streamlining this process through the Division is more efficient than a constant exchange of data between HealthNow and the City, as changes to status, benefits and information cannot be made directly through HealthNow. The system utilized, which centralizes information changes within the Division avoids the redundancies highlighted by the City Auditor of employees or timekeepers having to change the information in two places. Since the Audit was commenced and the Comptroller's Office suggested the use of the City's payroll system to generate bills and to reconcile health care information, we will adopt the Comptroller's recommendation and utilize the City payroll system to reconcile monthly bills. This process has been established and the Division feels, together with the other mechanisms detailed in this response, maintenance of timely and accurate status information can be achieved. While the Audit alludes that the Director simply decided to no longer receive bills from the insurer, in fact the Division chose to no longer receive paper bills from the insurer, opting instead to receive the information electronically to improve efficiency and reduce the time and costs associated with paper document transmission, storage and destruction and to transition the office to a more efficient `paperless' environment. Additionally, if an employee were to have changed his or her status and a delay occurred in updating the information, the Division would and does regularly receive credits from the insurer for the tithe period the employee was erroneously carried incorrectly. PJ It should finally be noted that the Audit's criticism of the reconciliation process was a direct result of the Department of Audit and Control's inaction on assigning a Senior Accountant to the Division in and after 2004. The meltdown in the system has been the lethargy of the Department of Audit & Control in assigning the necessary manpower to the Division to perform the tasks that have created many of the issues cited in the Audit. 2. Issue: Former employees and deceased employees were being carried on the City's records, and many were being carried on the active file, when they were, in fact, retired. This caused overpayments and made any valid analysis impossible and, despite this discovery, the Division continued to make payments without a monthly reconciliation of either the insurer's bills or the City's payroll records. 2. Response: The Division Disagrees. First and foremost, there is no difference in cost bet-vveen an active benefits plan and a retirement benefits plan. Therefore, the statement that carrying a retired employee as an active one caused overpayments is patently false. Spouses of retirees have no motivation to notify us of the death of the retiree because they have no life insurance benefit due them. At that time, the cost of continued health insurance is born by COBRA and subsequently creates a financial liability for the widow /widower that did not exist prior to the death of the retiree. The Division uses the New York State Retirement System quarterly .report to validate retiree data and is the catalyst for most benefit changes in status for retirees. Ultimately, the protracted erroneous classification of a retired employee as active, is a rare and unlikely occurrence that hosts no fiscal impact on the City. In addition and as a result of this audit, the Division of Compensation and Benefits now compares the information on the Payroll System with the Health Insurance Database to verify status. As for deceased retirees and employees, the Division is developing a more comprehensive internal process for staff to react in a more timely manner and to make adjustments in benefits, for example, use of New York State Retirement System quaterly updates to ascertain the deaths of retirees. For active employees, a death would necessarily be reflected in the Payroll System and, therefore, would certainly be co- terminously adjusted in benefits because of the Division's transition to that system. The Division respectfully suggests that all steps necessary to insure that status changes are made with all deliberate speed have taken place. 3. Issue: The Division "double- paid" for bills for employees covered under the Enterprise Fund for the months of May, June and July of 2008, totaling $526,309.57 in overpayments. A letter was sent to the Commissioner of Human Resources by the Division of Audit on April 1, 2009 in:forining her of the overpayment and asking her to request a refund from Health Now, which has not occurred. 3 3. Response: The Division Disagrees. The loss of the Senior Accountant assigned to the Division of Compensation and Benefits by the Department of Audit and Control prompted an agreement between the Division and the Department of Audit and Control providing that the Department of Audit and Control would be responsible for the the in -depth checks, balances and verification of the accuracy of every purchase order submitted until it was able to assign a replacement. This agreement was prompted by the death of the Senior Accoutnant assigned to the Division of Compensation and Benefits in 2004, as no member of the Division of Compensation and Benefits is charged with said task in them- job descriptions and the function was always carried out by a Department of Audit and Control employee. The basic understanding was that if a purchase order were to be submitted by the Division, which was redundant or inaccurate, the Department of Audit and Control would advise of the same and a correction would occur. The problem here is the inconsistency in the Audit Department's correction process of errors on purchase orders generated by the Division. It appears that while occasionally pointing out errors, the Department of Audit and Control was not making corrections prior to payment processing, resulting in erroneous checks being cut by that Department. As is apparent from the sheer amount of the overpayments and editorialized by the City Auditor, the significant fiscal impact of these errors makes it incumbent upon the Department of Audit and Control to assign an Accountant to work with the Director of Compensation and Benefits and assigned staff to remedy the issues cited, so that once an error is discovered, it is not only corrected going forward, but erroneous payments are stopped short of overpayment and the need to seek refunds or restitution in the future is alleviated. As for the allegation that an April 1, 2009 letter was sent to the Commissioner of Human Resources asking her to request a refund for $526,309.57 in overpayments, but nothing has been done to further this objective, it is patently false. ' Following the notification issued by the Department of Audit and Control, the Director of Compensation and Benefits immediately contacted Health Now and requested a refund of the "double payments" discovered by the Department of Audit and Control. Health Now requested additional documentation to verify the City's refund claims. Said information was sought from the Department of Audit and Control on numerous occasions and has, to date, not been supplied. It is inappropriate for the Department of Audit and Control to actively resist providing the requisite information necessary to demand a refund and then to intimate that the Coninhissioner of Human Resources is somehow to blame. The Division and the Department of Audit & Control are now working proactivonly to resolve the issue of arrears and to improve communication, so that future incidents of this nature are promptly resolved. 4. Issue: There was no effort .made to allocate accurate costs to the various funds responsible for medical costs, with all adjustments being charged to the General Fund, resulting in improper allocation of expenses. In some months all adjustments were charged to active General Fund employees, despite a clear breakdown between active employees and retirees on the MIS program. 4 4. Response n The Division Disagrees. As suggested in prior comments, the movement to the City's Payroll System has assisted the Division in identifying retirees and active employees more quickly and efficiently. The Division currently has no protocol to communicate with the Department of Audit and Control to identify a change in an employee's fund allocation. It should be noted that there is absolutely no cost to the City because of improper fund allocation and the function of fund allocation is one that has traditionally been performed by the Department of Audit & Control prior to the death of the Senior Accountant assigned to the Division of Compensation & Benefits for whom no replacement has been narned or assigned. While claims that no effort has been made to insure proper fund allocation, the Department of Audit and Control's failure to assign the appropriate personnel to insure that fund allocation is accurate has caused this problem. Going forward, the Division commits to establishing a protocol with the Department of Audit and Control to enhance communication and streamline procedures. III. GHI Dental Issue: Incorrect rates were paid without proper adjustment prior to June of 2008 and retroactive adjustments were only made to the three months prior to June of 2008, when the City changed to a "self-insured" claims payment system. Response: The Division Disagrees. The Division's reconciliation efforts with respect to GHI Dental coverage and the use of the City payroll, the Human Resources database and GHI bills will be utilized in the future to insure that monthly payments and invoices are properly apportioned and paid. As the issues with reconciliation all stem from the use of a system other than the Payroll System, the use of said system will address this issue. It should be noted that the Division's initiative in transferring to claims payment coupled with payment of minimum administrative fees has generated substantial savings to the City of Buffalo since its inception. It should also be noted that this function was also performed and verified by the Senior Accountant assigned to the Division who died in 2004 and has once again, not been replaced. IV. Rates Paid for Medical and Dental Insurance Issue: The Audit takes issue with the use of Brown & Brown of New York Insurance to negotiate rates for various employee groups based on coverage and other options, when said company is paid by the Insurer. 5 Response. The Division Disagrees. While the Comptroller's Office suggests that Brown and Brown be immediately replaced as negotiator for the City in establishing rates, we suggest that a closer analysis be undetaken before such drastic steps are taken. The Agreement that designates Brown and Brown as intermediary was the work of the prior Commissioner and careful attention needs to be paid to the four corners of the contractual relationship causing Brown and Brown to perform this service, the objective criteria Brown and Brown utilizes to negotiate rates and the ethical and contractual restraints the company must abide by in performing the service. It would not be in the City's best interest to disqualify Brown and Brown if they are achieving the best possible result in terms of group rates without any contract costs to the City. If savings could be generated by another firm and said savings could be verified by independent analysis of the comparable group rates achieved for comparable plans, an analysis should be undertaken to determine if said amount is de minitnis and would easily be offset by the contract costs associated with the City issuing a request fox proposals and independently paying for the service. Also, as the prospective contract fees are not contemplated by the Division's_ current budget, incurring this expense without closer scrutiny would be unwise. It should also be noted that the transition from a flat fee per employee arrangement with GHI Dental to a much lower flat fee with claims payment arrangement was the suggestion of Brown and Brown and a decision which has resulted in substantial savings to the City. The Commissionerof Human Resources submits that we should honor the terms of our contract with Brown and Brown in their current capacity and review their performance prior to the expiration of their contract. V. Case Management — IOD Issue: All 84 service orders paid to Coventry Health Care Workers Compensation, Inc, were paid late because the Department made errors in identifying funding sources, the amount needed and the amounts available and apparently misunderstood the contract processing procedures required by both the City and the Buffalo Fiscal Stability Authority, while also having no sense of urgency to make said payments. Response: The Director Disagrees. The Vendors' inability to provide timely supporting documentation to promptly pay the invoices caused a backlog that was perpetuated in subsequent fiscal years by the City's closeout procedures. The Prior Fiscal Year Claims Process is the only one available to the Division to pay charges incurred prior to July 1" of each year and was the appropriate mechanism for dealing with the back payments, as there is no dispute that the services were ably performed by the vendor and there was simply a delay in receiving and processing the paperwork. As these invoices were not subject to any interest or penalties as a result of the delays, the only expense associated with the payments was staff time devoted to channeling the paperwork through the Common Council and, in 6 Iimited instances, the Buffalo Fiscal Stability Authority for approval. It was the Director's understanding of contracting procedures and payments of prior fiscal year invoices that occasioned the proper payment of the invoices, despite their tardiness, as opposed to some effort to skirt these procedures in the absence of legal process. It should also be noted that the delays in payment processing were occasioned by protracted contract negotiations with the vendor, which called into question the duration of the contractual relationship. VI. Comments and Recommendations Each of the Audit's Comments and Recommendations will be addressed individually as required by �7 -7 of the City Charter except for those of a general nature contained in the final Comments and Recommendations and the Conclusion. 1. Comment and Recommendation: Many of the problems encountered with the medical and dental payments appear to have resulted from the loss of an employee, which emphasizes the need for cross - ttaining in the duties among the various Division employees. Response: Cross -- training of employees is taking place, however, the problems encountered with medical and dental payments are a direct result of the death of a Department of Audit and Control employee (a Senior Accountant). No degree of cross - training is going to fill the void left by the loss of a Sr. Accountant to the Division, as no Division employees are accountants specifically trained to perform reconciliation functions. 2. Comment and Recommendation: There are numerous errors in the rates used due to limitations in the program used to calculate the amounts over multiple rate periods, which can be avoided by monthly reconciliation and verification. The Division should meet with the data processing departments for both the City and the health insurance vendor to allow for easier review and reconciliation. Response: The Audit demonstrates a fundamental misunderstanding of the reconciliation process. Adjustments are made using adjustment sheets on a monthly basis. Changes in coverage are made by the Division and adjusted as it is made aware of them and those adjustments are forwarded to the insurer. As the Payroll system allows for this process to take place more quickly, the Division will be operating at maximum efficiency with the use of said system. Improvement in operation would be realized once the Department of Audit and Control assigns an Accoutant to process /verify the accuracy of the purchase orders submitted and to provide a system of checks and balances for work done by the Division. 3. Comment and Recommendation: The June 2008 reconciliation of GHI bills was only done for three months back to March of 2008 and one employee carried erroneously indicates that the Division could have reconciled bills further back and realized substantial savings by identifying additional overpayments. VA Response: The Audit identifies an unnamed employee who had incorrectly been carried on the City's Dental Insurance and mentions no other examples. That substantial savings could be recognized would require the Auditor to first analyze the records to determine that to be true, instead of merely speculating, and allowing the Division to take the necessary steps to make the adjustment. The Audit repeatedly cites examples that were not brought to the Division's attention and speculates of the existence of others without any proof of the existence of such examples. Any and all errors detected were, in fact, reconciled by the Division upon detection. The transition to the claims process makes dear that the potential losses to the City have been drastically cut because the flat fee is less than a fourth of the previous one and because credits can be taken against any errors discovered in the future, steps which are not adequately described in the Audit Report. 4. Comment and Recommendation: "In-- lieu" payments were made to employees taking advantage of the medical insurance benefit and others who switched from insurance to "in- lieu" payments were never paid. The City payroll system should be used to insure accuracy. Response: A full review of procedures is being conducted in response to this Audit and the transition to reconciliation with the City Payroll system has already taken place: While the Division believes that the failing of the Department of Audit and Control to assign an Accountant also contributed to the alleged improper payments, the Division is committed to closer scrutiny of these payments by utilizing the City Payroll System, and is relying on the Department of Audit and Control to review the purchase orders to insure accuracy. S. Comment and Recommendation: Payments made on behalf of those employees who were not notified on a timely basis of their COBRA rights and did not utilize their insurance during said period should be refunded. Response: Any time an adjustment should have been made, but was not, it is subsequently made with the insurance companies with a credit back to the City for the period during which premium payments were made, but coverage should not have been provided. There are limited instances in which COBRA notification is delayed, including the possibility of litigation against the City for the termination of an employee, resulting in an increase in damages if COBRA notification is made and benefits discontinued. These situations are discussed with the Law Department, so that the Division can best assess how to proceed without increasing the City's exposure and the use of the City's payroll system will also ensure the timeliness of COBRA notifications. G. Comment and Recommendation: A ti€nefrarne for review of coverage and reconciliation with insurance companies needs to be agreed upon and conducted on a regular basis. The Division should be confirming status changes on a regular basis, including updates of information based on MIS data runs and notarized confirmations of employee addresses and coverage, Response: The Division commits to more regular, formalized reconciliation processes to insure accuracy and consistency of information. While the Division does do data runs, gets quarterly updates from the New York State Pension Division to alert of any changes in the status of retirees 8 I and reconciles information on a monthly basis, the Division will request information from program participants more regularly to add yet another layer of review to the system. It should be noted that reconciliation is a function of the accounting process under the Department of Audit and Control. 7. Comment and Recommendation: There has been very little movement towards any reform in the Division as medical payments are being submitted without verification of amounts and there have been threats of denial of services or imposition of charges because of late payments and a backlog that needs to be cleaned up. While an employee has been assigned to this since January of 2009, the delay is problematic and needs to be cleaned up. Response: As with most of the other criticisms leveled at the Division, the prior comment needs to be addressed in no uncertain terms. While the Division has assigned an employee to expedite the process, the Audit both complains of delays in processing and inaccurate or incomplete verification. The Department of Audit and Control is also culpable for some of the backlog by failing to request additional information for justification of purchase orders in a timely manner, thus preventing payments from going out expeditiously. 8. Comment and Recommendation: Payments for HealthNow medical continue to be presented without adequate verification and three purchase orders were presented for former employees who bad not yet been apprised of their COBRA rights. These delays appear to have caused significant overpayments. Response: Purchase orders submitted to the Department of Audit and Control have been properly verified. In cases where an error occurs or there is a delay in notification of status changes, the Division routinely requests adjustments from the insurer in the form of credits and reconciliation occurs shortly thereafter. There are instances in which COBRA rights notifications and status changes are delayed because of unique circumstances (i.e., the death of a City employee on the job or a termination that is the subject of pending litigation) 9. Comment: The payment of benefits to former employees or employees on extended leave awaiting possible approval for New York State Disability Pensions was cited as being done according to City policy, but evidence of such a policy was never produced. Response: There are instances in which an employee who is awaiting a determination as to his or her eligibility for a disability retirement must be carried on the City's insurance until said eligibility is resolved because of gray areas surrounding the entitlement to said benefits in the language of the representative Union's Collective Bargaining Agreement. As these cases are very few and far between, the cost of carrying, as opposed to dropping, and the resultant exposure to increased damages, is assessed from a risk inanagcment standpoint, which resulted in the development of the practice. 10. Further Comments /Recommendations and Conclusions: The Audit determines that the Division submits inaccurate summary sheets with purchase orders, that the Coventry contract 9 V should have been renewed expeditiously, that medical payments need to be processed with a higher level of attention, that Brown and Brown should not be negotiating rates with the insurance companies on behalf of the City, that employee ,proficiency in various functions needs to be increased, that all Departments should be made aware of how to inform the Division of life changes, that the Human Resources MUNIS module needs to be utilized and that more day --to -day functions should be delegated by the Director. Responses /Conclusions: The Division has cotnn - itted itself to cross- training employees, cleaning up any backlogs that exist and to working with the Departments of Management Information Systems and Audit and Control to improve procedures and efficiencies. However, it must be noted that many of the alleged problems cited in the Audit are not the fault of not are they going to be rectified solely by the Division. With regard to status changes and .reconciliation between the City Payroll and the purchase orders ultimately submitted to Audit and Control for payment, the death of the Senior Accountant five years ago created a system where verification was to be conducted by the Department of Audit and Control, which it cannot simply pretend has not contributed to problems concering reconciliation of information and payment processing. The Division is open to the use of new systems and creation of efficiencies, but it needs the cooperation of the other two departments to achieve them. For example, it is disingenuous for the Department of Audit and Control to cite delays in payments as cause for criticism when said delays are often occasioned by its failure to promptly process purchase orders. It is also disingenuous for it to blame overpayments on the Division when it ultimately is responsible for insuring the accuracy of payments before the checks leave the mailroom. It is further disingenuous to call for the immediate dismissal of the firm retained to negotiate for the City's rates when an objective analysis reveals that the City's rates are amongst the lowest and the recommendations of Brown and Brown have proven to have generated significant cost savings to the City. While the two -year audit is devoid of specific instances in which the City has incurred any financial penalties associated with any of the alleged shortcomings of the Division, it is clear that the Department of Audit and Control's failure to assign the appropriate staff to what it identifies as a major cost center, has caused problems, which will only be ameliorated once the Division and the Department of Audit and Control begin to work cooperatively to resolve the issues cited, as opposed to having the Department of Audit and Control utilizing its audit power to cast all blame on the Division without acknowledging its culpability. 10 M�i #I (Rev. 193) COMMUNICATION TO THE COMMON COUNCIL TO: The Common Council DATE: December 29, 2009 FROM: DEPARTMENT: DIVISION: SUBJECT: Audit and Control Comptroller [: Bond Closeout PRIOR COUNCIL REFERENECE: (IF ANY) [: TEXT: The City of Buffalo issues bonds to provide funds to finance the costs of various capital projects, which are described in the bond resolutions submitted to the Common Council.

In Item No. 21 of the Common Council Proceedings of May, 12, 2009, the Council approved a settlement agreement with Police Officer Patty Parete and Mary Ellen Opalinski to provide ongoing medical care for Officer Parete through the actions of Ms. Opalinski for the duration of the period which Ms. Opalinski provided such care. The settlement provided $60,000 to compromise past claims ($50,000 for wages and $10,000 in lost medical benefits Ms. Opalinski paid under COBRA) and $55,000 in wages as Ms. Parete's health care provider for fiscal year 2008 -2009 and $1,000 for an Individual Retirement Account (IRA) for Ms. Opalinski. That total of $119,000 was paid by check to Ms. Opalinski in June 2009. Payments going forward for fiscal year 2009 -20 10 were to be paid by the city upon presentment of acceptable monthly certification/reports of hours to the City, which would be presented for payment by the Division of Compensation and Benefits to the Department of Audit and Control.

Item No._xxx.C.C.P.xx/xx/xx TEXT: (TYPE SINGLE SPACE BELOW) That on December 2, 1969 the Common Council adopted resolution Item No. 85 approving the request of Maryner Redevelopment Company, Inc. for the tax exemption and authorizing the execution of an agreement. On or about April 2, 1970, the City of Buffalo and Maryner Redevelopment executed an Agreement limiting Maryner Redevelopment's real property tax liability as to certain parcels of real property in the City of Buffalo in accordance with Section 236 of the National Housing Act of 1968 and Article V of the Private Housing Finance Law of the State of New York. Specifically, the Agreement imposes a real property tax ceiling in the amount of Seventy- Four Thousand Dollars ($74,000.00) on City and County Taxes for the real property located at 186 Efner Street and bearing S.B.L. No. 110.12- -1 -29. The 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, 1969. If in any one fiscal year the combined City and County real property tax liability exceeds Seventy -Four Thousand Dollars ($74,000.00), Maryner Redevelopment is entitled to a reftmd of the excess taxes paid above and beyond said ceiling amount. As you will see from the attached documentation, the refund has been apportioned between the City of Buffalo and the County of Erie according to the tax rates prevailing at the time and the proportionate share of total property taxes paid to the City and County. 20052006 City Tax 2006 County Tax Total tax paid Less combined ceiling Overpayment City's share (87.94% x $ 69,203.24 $ 9,489.80 $ 78,69104 $ 74,000.00 $ 4,693.04 4,693.04) = $4,127.09 ,ale 2006 -2007 City Tax $ 68,032.04 2007 County Tax $ 9621.13 Total Tax Paid $ 77,653.17 Less Combined Ceiling $ 74,000.00 Overpayment $ 3,653.17 City's Share (87.60% x 3,653.17) = $3,200.55 2008 -2009 City Tax $ 1 70,442.88 2009 County Tax $ 11,276.81 Total Tax Paid $ 81,719.69 Less Combined Ceiling $ 74,000.00 Overpayment $ 7,719.69 City's Share (86.20% x 7,719.69) = $6,654.42 Total Refund for 2005 -2006: 2006 -2007, 20082009 Tax Years: $19,344.77 I therefore request that the Comptroller be authorized to refund to CRM Rental Management, Inc., as manager of Maryner Towers Apartments, a total of $19,344.77 for excess property taxes paid on 186 Efner Street for the 2005 -2006, 20062007, and 2008 2009 City fiscal tax years.

Office of the City Clerk Gerald Chwalinski 1308 City Hall Buffalo, New York 14202 Subject: Letter for Members of the Common Council To whom it may concern: Attached is a letter for the members of the Common Council concerning the appointment process for the recently vacated Ellicott District Council office. The letter concerns biased remarks made by an applicant for the appointment, which are of great concern to me as an Ellicott District and City of Buffalo resident. T would greatly appreciate that this letter be shared with the members of the Common Council for consideration in the appointment process. Sincerely, Bryan Ball Y Bryan Ball 204 West Tupper Street Buffalo, New York 14201 -2145 December 15, 2009 Subject: Bias in an Ellicott District Appointment Candidate Dear Common. Council Member: As a City of Buffalo resident within the Ellicott Common Council District, the upcoming appointment process for an interim councilperson in the wake of the recently vacated Ellicott District seat is of the upmost importance to me. Ellicott, as it now stands, is an incredibly diverse district, and should have that diversity represented, celebrated and respected in the office of the Common Council. Therefore, I am concerned with a certain candidate who has submitted a resume for consideration of appointment to the council. What concerns me most are remarks made by Darius Pridgen which are offensive to the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community, which has a considerable presence in the Ellicott District. Attached are remarks from candidate Pridgen, as quoted in a magazine article from 2003, in which Pridgen condemns homosexual persons. The remarks of the most concern, made during a discussion of the disease HIVIAIDS, are as follows: "But despite the fact that Pridgen is taking on the .AIDS issue directly, he separates support for AIDS patients and the need for prevention from accepting what he cannot condone. He condemns homosexuality and non - marital sex in unambiguous terms. `You have to call sin sin but H VIAL DS is not the sin, it's the disease,' he says. `Until you separate the sin from the disease, people are not going to get tested. "' With all due respect, these beliefs, that homosexual persons are living an immoral life, may be in line with the teachings and preaching of some organized religions, such as the organization for which Darius Pridgen is a pastor. The right for Reverend Pridgen to hold and express these —or any other— beliefs should never be infringed upon or not respected in this country. In America, we have freedom of religious expression, freedom of speech and a just separation of the church and the state. However, it is nevertheless a problematic situation when a person holds these beliefs, which would infringe and cast judgment upon the lives of other citizens, and enters the world of government and public office. The office of a District Councilmember should represent, respect and celebrate the views and lives of all persons and communities within a district; whether that be a family who believes in the preaching of Reverend Pridgen's church or a gay family making a life within the district. These remarks are ones which any citizen of this country would be entitled to making and holding, regardless of i� s ue. who they may or may not offend or unjustly condemn. But were these remarks to be those of a public servant, the offense would be entirely unjustified as these words, coming from an appointed or elected representative of a governed body, would cast judgment and condemn, from a religious standpoint, members of the community which the representative serves. No citizen of the City of Buffalo, or anywhere else, deserves that disrespect from her or his democratically representative government leadership. In conclusion, I greatly appreciate the Common Council's consideration of my concern. As a gay man living in the Ellicott District, it would be especially troubling to me were my representative on the council to be one who espouses the idea that who I am as a person is wrong and should be condemned. These concerns of religion subjectively influencing government and public policy are especially troubling given the recent political climate, which continues to segregate certain civil rights and protections based on sexual orientation. I thank you for your consideration and your time. Sincerely, Bryan Ball The article of concern, in its entirety. Religion in the Age of AIDS By Michael Kress The following article was published in the Religion c& Ethics Newsweeldy Viewer's Guide (2003): Ever since a mysterious illness started killing gay men in the early 1980s, religious groups have had a mixed record on coping with the disease that carne to be known as AIDS. Although their faith traditions called them to care for those in need, some people of faith found it difficult to fulfill this mandate when it carne to HIV /AIDS. Over the years, however, that attitude has changed for many religious leaders and lay people. As the death toll rises dramatically and the pandernic spreads to new parts of the globe (more than 40 million people worldwide have been infected with HIV /AIDS, 25 million have already died and, according to the National Intelligence Council, the number of those infected could rise to 100 million by 2010), religious organizations are working against AIDS with increasing passion. Still, AIDS forces people of faith to confront issues of sex and homosexuality, drug abuse, gender, race, stigmatization, poverty, and justice — not an easy task for marry religions, yet facing difficult social issues has long been part of religious history. "I don't care how you got AIDS — whether you got it from a needle, whether you got it through a blood transfusion, whether through homosexual contact, or whether just being careless," the influential evangelist Franklin Graham has told Religion & Ethics NewsWeekly in words that resonate across the religious spectrum. "It doesn't matter how you got it. The fact is you have it. The church of Jesus Christ, I think, needs to be on the forefront of this issue with love, with compassion, with understanding and giving hope to those that don't have hope." Today, Buddhist temples in Thailand are providing health care and sex education to treat AIDS and prevent its spread; Presbyterians in Africa are distributing home -care kits for AIDS patients without access to medical care; synagogues throughout the United States give solace and spiritual care to AIDS patients and their families; and the United Methodist Church lobbies the U.S. Congress for greater funding to fight AIDS. It is a significant change from 20 years ago, says the Rev. Jimmy Allen, former president of the Southern Baptist Convention. "We have moved out of the days of fear ... to a time of involvement with people living with AIDS," he says. Allen's family knew those "days of fear" all too well. His daughter -in -law, Lydia, contracted the virus from a blood transfusion in the early 1980x, hours before giving birth to her son, Matthew. The disease went undiscovered until Lydia and her husband, Scott Allen, had a second son who died of AIDS as an infant in 1986. Matthew also had AIDS and lived with rejection upon rejection from church Sunday schools until he died at age 13. In addition, Jimmy Allen's son Skip is gay and HIV-positive. "I have a lot of differences of opinion with my gay son, but we decided to love each other," Allen says. "There is an acceptance level when love is present that doesn't involve approval." It is a message he hopes to convey to churches. "My challenge to /i Y� 1 churches is that they find out what's happening in the AIDS community," he says. "Once they see the pain and sorrow, the Christian response has to be to care for the victim." Mobilizing People of Faith In the 1980s, as people began dying of AIDS, Earl Shelp, a Baptist pastor and medical ethicist in Houston, was among the first to mobilize people of faith to help. He founded Interfaith Care Partners, a non - profit organization in which small groups from Christian and Jewish congregations are matched with an AIDS patient to provide assistance. "There were religious voices condemning people with AIDS and calling for their abandonment. We took that head on," Shelp says. "God's people are called to befriend and defend those who are on the margins of society." As AIDS spread in the United States, it became harder for communities of faith to ignore the disease; their siblings, children, congregants, and co- workers were dying. Religious communities became increasingly involved. But in the 1990s, when the disease all but seemed to disappear, AIDS dropped off some agendas. Increased awareness about prevention had slowed its spread, and the advent of the so- called "cocktail" of AIDS drugs dramatically reduced the number of deaths in the United States. Norman Sandfield, chairman of the International Jewish AIDS Network, says his organization has all but ceased getting calls from Jews looking for either health services or spiritual solace. The former are less needed, and the latter is being provided by a large number of synagogues that have embraced AIDS victims and their families. "People I know who are Jewish and living with AIDS -- it's a chronic condition. They have a medical problem, but they're not planning on dying anytime soon," Sandfield says, in a statement that is true for affluent American AIDS patients of all religions. In truth, though, AIDS has hardly disappeared from the U.S. scene. Instead, it has moved from mostly white, relatively affluent gay risen to mostly poor African Americans who cannot afford treatment with the AIDS " cocktaiI." Less than half of all African Americans with HIV are recipients of Medicaid, the largest funding source for AIDS care. And while many African American churches and faith -based organizations, such as The Balm in Gilead, vigorously address the AIDS crisis in their ministries (through training institutes, awareness programs, prayer services, and capacity- building conferences for church leaders), many others, although they are a major force in their urban and rural communities, have been reluctant to address AIDS prevention, fearing it might undermine traditional Bible -based teaching on extramarital sex. The vastness of the international pandemic has both reawakened religious organizations that had de- emphasized AIDS and convinced newcomers to the issue that they roust act. In the Presbyterian Church (USA), for example, the AIDS issue is getting increased funding at a time when the denomination is generally tightening its belt. At a major meeting in October 2402, plans were formulated to pair U.S. churches with African 94 counterparts and to hire two Africa -based people to work exclusively on AIDS. "The Presbyterian Church had been very active in the 1980s talking about issues of stigma and sexuality," says Jennifer Butler, the church's U.N. representative. "But nobody had taken up the banner of looking at the crisis globally." Many religious leaders say their institutions still have not given AIDS nearly enough attention domestically or abroad. Richard Cizik, vice president for governmental affairs at the National Association of Evangelicals, cites a recent survey sponsored by World Vision, the Christian humanitarian organization, that found only three percent of evangelicals consider HIV /AIDS a priority for giving. He laments the fact that AIDS ministries have had to close their doors for lack of funds. "Our people are not willing to invest dollars in these sorts of ministries," he says. Yet at a recent conference on HIV /AIDS sponsored by Samaritan's Purse, Franklin Graham's international relief organization, Graham called on evangelical Christians to attack AIDS "with the same level of commitment, zeal, money, and resources that we have rightly applied toward combating international terrorism, and he acknowledged publicly that many Christians have been wrong to avoid AIDS ministry. Rethinking Attitudes Despite all the efforts to combat AIDS, some theologians say communities of faith cannot truly be part of the solution without deep introspection about traditional religious stances on human sexuality. "[AIDS is ] a life - and -death situation and you need to rethink your values," say Letty Russell, a feminist theologian and professor emeritus at Yale Divinity School. "The stigma of having it is still so great. In the U.S., people assume you're gay. In other countries, they assume you're a prostitute." Russell and others point to the fact that many religious leaders deny that AIDS is a problem, and some still condemn AIDS patients as sinners. In other cases, they say, traditional religious beliefs inhibit efforts at prevention. In South Africa, for example, one of the countries most devastated by the pandemic, Catholic bishops in 2001 condemned the use of condoms to prevent AIDS as "immoral and misguided" with one exception ---- for married couples, and even then it is limited. The bishops said that when one partner is HIV- positive, a married couple could use condoms in some circumstances. They also claimed that condoms "contribute to the breakdown of self- control and mutual trust," and may be one of the main reasons for the spread of HIV /AIDS. Yet Catholics in general have been "in the forefront of responding to people with AIDS," according to Kenneth Overberg, S.J., a moral theologian at Xavier University in Cincinnati, Ohio. But, he continues, there is only so much the church can do without systemic change. "Many of us find the traditional teachings limiting," Overberg says. "That work needs to be done delicately, but many of us know it needs to be done." In San Francisco, Steve Peskind, co- coordinator of the Buddhist AIDS Project, spends much of his time applying Buddhist teachings to the prevention of AIDS and care for AIDS patients - breathing techniques, mindfulness meditation, end -of -life counseling, advocacy for compassionate social action, spiritual reflection on impermanence and suffering, and simply being present for people with AIDS. "We're basically trying to infuse Buddhist perspectives into what is sometimes seen as an addictive culture of sex and sexual gratification," he says. But Peskind also grapples with traditional Buddhist teachings about sexual misconduct that he says contribute to anti- homosexual attitudes around the world. Gay Buddhists in San Francisco have met with the Dalai Lama, spiritual leader of Tibetan Buddhism, to discuss Buddhist statements on homosexuality and "what the consequences may be, especially for sexual minorities," Peskind says. It is all the more unfortunate, say those involved in the issue, because religion has a unique role to play in fighting HIV /AIDS. With its influence on believers` values and behavioral norms and its role in caring for the suffering — religion can have an impact on everything from prevention to treatment to dealing with the dying. "[In] Africa, but largely everywhere in the world, people are extremely religious, and religion is tied to the culture," says Russell. "Religion is at the heart of people's culture and way of life, and if you don't address ways it can be used to change attitudes toward sexuality, you're not going to be successful in stemming the disease." In South Africa, where only about two percent of the population is Muslim, Rukia Cornelius is in charge of awareness and education programs at mosques and Islamic societies for an AIDS support group called Positive Muslims. "We believe in a theology of compassion," she says, "a way of reading the Holy Koran ... that focuses on Allah as most compassionate." Too many Muslims, she observes, seem to believe that HIV /AIDS does not affect them. They say that Muslims are not promiscuous, or that Muslims have strong moral values and don't have sex before marriage. "We do gratefully have pockets in our community that want to snake a difference and are starting to develop their own HIV /AIDS programs," says Cornelius. But local Muslim judicial councils, she reports, ignore the situation and refuse to use "the strongest tool available to us — the pulpit." In Senegal, however, where the HIV infection rate is barely one percent, imams in Senegal's mosques told Religion & Ethics NewsWeekly correspondent Fred de Sara Lazaro that there is one important reason for the low number; the country is 95 percent devout Muslim. Homosexuality and marital infidelity, the imams preach, are outlawed by the Koran. Conservatives and liberals alike point to another African country, Uganda, as an example of what can be done. There, schools, churches and mosques are used to provide AIDS education and care, and as a result, Uganda has recorded declining rates of HIV infection since 1993, according to a 2001 U.N. report this at a time when the news about AIDS in Africa is almost uniformly tragic. Religious leaders around the world are hoping to recreate the Uganda experience in many, many other countries before it is too late.

Darius Pridgen of True Bethel Baptist Church in Buffalo, NY, AIDS is not a thing of the past but very much a crisis in the present. "AIDS is not just spreading in the drug community, AIDS is not just spreading in the homosexual community, it's also spreading in the church community," Pridgen says. Faced with a growing AIDS problem among inner -city African Americans, Pridgen halted services before his sermon one recent Sunday to take an AIDS test right in the pulpit and to implore his 2,500 - member Full Gospel Baptist Church Fellowship congregation to follow suit. But despite the fact that Pridgen is taking on the AIDS issue directly, he separates support for AIDS patients and the need for prevention from accepting what he cannot condone. He condemns homosexuality and non- marital sex in unambiguous terms. "You have to call sin sin, but HIV /AIDS is not the sin, it's the disease," he says. "Until you separate the sin from the disease, people are not going to get tested." Before taking the public AIDS test, Pridgen says he called all the children to the pulpit, exhorted them to abstain from sex until they are married, and told them they should learn how to use condoms in case they need them after they are married — or before, should they choose to ignore his message of abstinence. Pridgen criticizes churches that refrain from AIDS ministry because they feel it would be condoning the sin that gave people AIDS. "I am preaching a message of transformation," he says. "If I put out everyone who is not saved, who will I preach to? It's time for us to come before the cross and say we have made mistakes in our lives."

By Belinda Lanks Posted April 17, 2006 When the mills shut down in the 1970s and '80s, the smokestacks and foundries that symbolized steel belt manufacturing cities gave way to factory shells and rust. First unemployed, workers then began to move away for good. Unlike former steel powerhouses, such as Pittsburgh and Allentown, that have tried to attract new industry and grow their way back to prosperity, Youngstown, Ohio, is hitching its future to a strategy of creative shrinkage. Last year Youngstown 2010 —a partnership between the city's planning department and Youngstown State University — unveiled a comprehensive plan to reduce nonessential infrastructure, attract new businesses, and rehab deteriorated and abandoned spaces. In fact Youngstown is the first city in the United States to adopt this disarming approach to the problems of population decline. "It's politically and professionally uncomfortable to face the shrinkage of a city or region, even though it may be staring you in the face," says Frank Popper, an urban - planning professor at Rutgers and Princeton universities. "I think it's enormously brave and creative and innovative of Youngstown to be taking on this task." Brave? Maybe. But Youngstown has little choice: once a city of more than 170,000, it counts roughly 80,000 residents today. The town had to recast itself as a smaller place. "You had all of this excess infrastructure and a declining tax base," says Oliver Jerschow of Urban Strategies, which developed the basis for Youngstown 2010's plan. `But on the positive side, Youngstown had these legacies that a typical city of eighty thousand would never have." Those legacies include assorted cultural venues, a 140 -acre university campus, and the five -mile -long Mill Creek Park. The city's willingness to downsize attracted Kent State University's Cleveland Urban Design Collaborative (CUDC), whose Shrinking Cities Institute partnered with Youngstown for last year's annual charrette. The institute focused on Oak Hill, a neighborhood that, with a staggering 60 percent vacancy rate, ranks among Youngstown's most blighted. "We wanted to take the vacancy and turn it into an asset rather than the liability it is now," CUDC senior planner Terry Schwarz says. Over the course of a weekend last October, four teams of design students, Rent State faculty, and CUDC staff worked on new visions for the neighborhood that would eliminate redundant infrastructure and capture key parcels to create large open green spaces. Shrinkage is a new problem requiring new solutions, according to Schwarz, so in mapping out their designs the students had to depart from the New Urbanist strategy of replacing empty lots with infill developments. "In Youngstown there's zero demand for new residential development and very little demand for retail uses," she says. "So the things we usually do— mixed -use housing with green space and such --- didn't have any relevance here because it simply would never happen." But if Youngstown's residents don't need housing, people from neighboring regions do. Ultimately the city may have to surrender to its location and become a bedroom community for Cleveland and Pittsburgh, each about 70 miles away. So in the end growing smaller may transform Youngstown into something else, says Charles Waldheim, a University of Toronto architecture professor who participated in the most recent Shrinking Cities conference. "To the extent that northeastern Ohio has a market for housing," he says, "it seems that Youngstown's future is making itself available for the garden living of the suburb," From: http: / /www.metropolismag.com /story/ 20060417 /the - incredible - shrinking -city REFERRED TO THE cOMMIUNITY DEVELOPMENT.

By Brentin Mock Page 1 of 4 Y OM Ems- - 13`x` ,01,c v) It's hard to imagine hearing this often in any city, but there it is on the "Frequently Asked Questions" page of Youngtown's official website, eityofyowrgstownoh,orrg. The page provides the obvious answer: the owner. Concerning what to do if the owner refuses to landscape, Youngstown bluntly instructs: "Call the Police!" The city council recently raised this "infraction" to a misdemeanor 3 — a classification shared by prostitution in Ohio. Youngstown absolutely won't tolerate grass growth. Actually, the city hasn't welcomed growth in general since the I 50s, when it began hemorrhaging residents at all average population decline of 16 percent annually, from over 170,000 to 73,$17 today. Youngstown is a shrinking city, a municipality of arrested or regressive development, both in financial and demographic terms. Most cities in this predicament hunker down, then spend big on casinos, sports stadiums, convention centers, hotels and nightclubs to attract new residents. The success rate for this model is unpromising, however, especially for smaller cities that will never compete with large metropolises. Youngstown's plan is to embrace stunted growth. The "shrinking city model," as it's called, reasons that a city suffering post- industrial blues and losing residents by the thousands won't suddenly charm people back by way of huge commercial hells and blockbuster whistles. Instead, the shrunk city demolishes blocks, converting its abandoned buildings and houses into open space for neighborhood enterprises and to nurture greenery. The method is fashionably known in Europe as "unbuilding the city," finding purposes for the "terrain vague" --- mused land and property — other than habitation, profit or attraction. So far, only Eastern Europe has successfully enacted these "smart decline" plans, reducing dozens of cities where deindustrialization had taken hold in the aftermath of World War Il. In Germany, cities such as Halle and Leipzig have effectively worked their shrinkage into sustainability in the years following the dismantling of the Berlin Wall. Old mills, factories and abandoned homes were put to creative use by the few residents left behind. It's a bit like telling a bald guy to shelve the Rogaine and the fancy toupees, and work instead with the little bit of hair lie has. Youngstown is by Ito means the only U.S. city that's balding. Virtually any city in Ohio, Pennsylvania and West Virginia that relied on steel production in the 20th centtill' now struggles with the loss of its assets and former status. Unlike many of these cities, Youngstown is owning its population deficit. Through its "Youngstown 2olo" plan, led by Mayor Jay Williams, the city plans to remain competitive by investing in 127 small neighborhoods throughout the region. But how exactly does a city sustain itself while shrinking? By 203o, a population of 73,0oo will become 54,000, which will eventually become 20,000 — and then what? Size may not matter, but density does, especially to solidify a tax base that can support schools and media. Is Youngstown scaling its fate by shrinking out of existence?

Page 2 of 4 d Virtually any city in Ohio, Pennsylvania and West Virginia that relied on steel production in the loth century now struggles with the loss of its assets and forrner status. A PLAN' TATCHED BY TOWN AND GaWly The name, "Youngstown 2wo," shouldn't he confused with projected development goals, since none exist (at least none to be met by 2010). The year refers instead to census markers. "We don know how long this process will take, says Phil Kidd, the city's downtown events director and founder of Defend Youngstown, a self - described "movement dedicated to the advancement of the city of Youngstown" with a popular local Web site. "The implementation stage does not have a timeline. 1112010, we'll stop and ask what's working and what's not working." William b'Avignon, the city's deputy director of planning, adds, "We're not saying everything we want to carry out will be completed by 2ozo, but we're going to plan for anything that's achievable by polo." The idea of shrinking first occurred to Youngstown after closing out the loth century with three consecutive decades of decline. On Sept. 19, 1977, "Black Monday," the Sheet and Tube steel company closed doors on its mills, triggering the eventual closure of the rest of Yo € €ngstown's steel industry. As population withered so did the housing stock, from over 5o,000 units built before 1950 to just over 37,000 today. White flight reduced that demographic from two- thirds of the city in 1g8o to less than half today; the black population rose from one -third in 1980 to 45 percent today. And if the 4,213 Hispanic and Latitio- American population seems minute, bear in mind that that €mmnber is 200 percent higher than in 1990. In the infant years of the new millennium, the city realized it urgently needed a new vision. Jay Williams was working as the city's director of community development in 2001 when the planning department sought out the expertise of Youngstown State University (YSU), the leading employer for the city and Williams's alma mater. YSU had plans in mind for its own growth, but ended tip nurturing a rehabilitative partnership with the city. Williams, along with D'Avignon and Anthony Kobak, the current chief city planner, teamed with YSU academics piqued by the research of new urbanists such as Stephen Graham and Ann Markusen. Youngstown came to recognize itself, in the words of Markusen's theoretical work, not as a "sticky" place —an urban center that continuously draws people (Los Angeles, Atlanta, New York City) — but as "slippery" — one where it's easy for, say, a YSU student to slip into the city, and then slip out due to lack of jobs or housing. "Our right- sizing plan came out of talks we were having Internally acknowledging that although our population wouldn't be going back to the hundreds of thousands, but that smaller didn't mean inferior," says Mayor Williams. "The question we asked was, because we were once so much larger how can we take the remnants of what made its large and build upon that ?" The planning team began to consider a counterintuitive approach to development: rather than grow the city, it should clean and "green" tip the unoccupied real estate. They conceived and presented a basic "right - sizing" formula to the Youngstown public, who fleshed out the plan with their ideas and expectations. Or, depending on whom you ask, the planners consulted the public first and then drew up a blueprint for Youngstown 2010. No matter its genesis, the eventual plan reflected three years of public Surveys and town hall meetings aimed at understanding the city's needs. "Overwhelmingly, people said they wanted the city shrunken, and they were for cleaning tip the blighted situations that were causing different variations of decay, cringe and abandonment," Kidd says. Thousands of citizens were consulted, and hundreds of students and professionals logged the process. The plan went into high gear after Williams was elected mayor in 2005. At 34, he was the youngest mayor Youngstown ever elected, and also the first African American — two identity aspects that resonated with college students and the emerging black majority. THE ANTIDOTE TO RACISM "He's kind of like the Barack Obama of Youngstown," says Rev. Michael Harrison, pastor of Union Baptist Church in the Northside. "I was pretty skeptical of the 2o10 plan in the beginning, only because I did not frilly understand it. Once the mayor explained it to a group of its pastors, whom he brought together, and showed us exactly how we all could benefit, I bought it hook, line and sinker." Like Obama, Williams comes across as a figure whose blackness alone is the presumed antidote to racism. As Kobak says, "A lot of people use Jay Williams's getting elected as mayor as a symbolic gesture of moving oat, given our histor of racial tension." African - American steelworkers in Youngstown and Western Pennsylvania have historically struggled with discrimination at least as far back as the late 1gios, when white labor unions went on strike against the steel companies. African Americans who were bossed in at that time were seen as scabs, although from their perspective, they were just taking advantage of previously unavailable opportunities. Hostility toward African- American steelworkers has remained entrenched ever since. They have worked the least desirable and most dangerotns jobs for the least amount of pay and lowest chance for promotion. Not until 1974, when the U.S. Department of Labor enforced a federal consent decree on Companies practicing racial discrimination, did working conditions for African Americans begin to improve. But Black Monday arrived three years later, rendering the law moot by leaving scores of black men unemployed. Notoriously racist banks refused African Americans home loans, which left neighborhoods segregated all the way through the 20th century. Ironically, Williams came from the banking industry before he began working for the city. "I started off as a young loan officer and making sure people weren't signing up with fly -by -night loan predators," says Mayor Williams. "I also spent time going out to neighborhood churches and community organizations to do outreach emphasizing the importance of working with local financial institutions and preparing themselves from a http : / /americancity.org/magazine/ article /can - they - save- youngstown/ 1/512010 Next American City » Magazine )> Can They Save Youngstown? Page 3 of 4 credit standpoint. I told the banks they have an obligation to lend on fair terms. But ultimately we were out there in the community educating the people as well. To this day, I still have people who will walk up to me with tears in their eyes talking about when they got their first home loan." The Youngstown 2010 plan lists improving residents' quality of life as one of its "major vision principles" (its goals), a component aim of which is to "begin dealing with difficult issues such as public safety and racism." The two often go discomfortingly hand -in -hand. To tackle crime, as one of his first acts, Mayor Williams increased the budget for demolitions of abandoned buildings, understood to be havens for criminals. Race is trickier, however, especially when it's inextricably linked to labor and class. Kohak says the city has produced three television shows based all town hall meetings that address issues of race, But eliminating, racism won't be as easy as identifying buildings to tear down — longstanding ideas about race and class can't simply be demolished and erased. It's acknowledged across the board that when cities shrink, the neighborhoods that end up most expendable are typically low- income and often predominantly African- or Latino- American communities. Kobak says these issues need not be seen as black - and -white — "People make them such," "What we're trying to do is bring people from all walks of life toward a common cause," says Kohak. "We want to remove all tile racial issues and bring the city to the forefront by suggesting that these are neighborhood issues, not black - and -white issues." So far, the consensus approach seems to have worked. Rev. Harrison, who's black, says African Americans have been granted "equal opportunity and access" in the new plan, while Kidd says race hasn't been a "major issue." CITIES SHRINK, BUT PROBLEMS GROW Inevitably, unforeseen problems will impinge on Youngstown's plan. For example, another labor conflict -- this one not racially loaded --- played out as recently as 2004, when the staff of the daily newspaper Vindicator went n€r strike for improved wages. One thing Youngstown possibly overlooked is that as the city shrinks, so does the circulation, subscription, advertising and revenue base for local media. City hall may not have been concerned with drawing people from other cities for growth, but the Vindicator• was. With a depleted staff, but a mandate to continue publishing, the independent, family -owned Vindicator began recruiting journalists from as far away as New Orleans -- while the strike was still in effect. Another problem with shrinking is that fewer competing investors increases the chance for one or a small few to buy up more than a fair share of property — as is the case with downtown Youngstown, where Louis A. Frangos, the single largest property owner, occasionally poses a problem for those trying to preserve the city. Among the many bank and realty office buildings he owns is the Stambaugh building, a 13 -story structure of gat wh)dows, some of which had been crashing to the sidewalk. Frangos initially proposed getting rid of the building, calling it a "lost cause." The building, however, has historic preservation status. When Frangos suggested replacing the broken windows with unsightly plywood, the city's elite balked: a letter signed by 17 "prominent players" asked the mayor to have Frangos take better care of his buildings. The letter referred to his properties as "a real -life Monopoly game that is occurring in our downtown." "By no means do we think we have it all figured out," says Kidd, "We all want to clean and green our city so that at some point we can be positioned for growth again, but right now we just have to clean up the house." SMALL TOWN BUSINESS At the same time that the city prepares to shrink, the mayor and his planners are eyeballing potential growth through regional partnerships, including the neighboring municipalities of Austintown, Boardman, Camfield, Campbell and Struthers. Youngstown wants to establish a joint economic development district (JEDD) plan encompassing the Mahoning River Corridor. In the proposed arrangement, the suburban townships will depend on Youngstown's water supply, and residents who work in the city will pay an income tax directed to business expansion efforts. Youngstown expects tine JEDD to produce some 3,750 jobs and $439 million ill revenue over the next 20 years. The only problem is that suburbanites aren't interested in financing Youngstown's growth with their own income and water taxes. Some municipalities have retained lawyers specifically trained in JEDD policies to protect themselves from the plan. For now, though, the principal growth efforts are community empowerment groups. Six neighborhoods, including Wick Park, which Kidd calls home, have been targeted for investment. In concert with the city and YSU, community organizations from each will establish their own development goals, to be executed by volunteer residents and reinforced by the city. Successfully implemented plans will serve as templates for other neighborhoods, as well as for future city - community governance. "A lot of people in this city are used to taking orders through a chain of command," says Kidd. "In this instance, it's a 50 -50 partnership between the communities and the city." The downtown central business district is also being revived, Under the Youngstown Business Incubator program, start-up knowledge - and technology -based companies are nestled under one roof and assisted by federal grants. The one major requirement for inclusion is that tine start -ups exchange notes so that they can build as it cluster. one company from this program, Turning Technologies, has ahead)' taken off, voted the top software company in the country last year by Inc. Magazine. After two failed attempts, Youngstown also finally won the National Planning Excellence Award for Public Outreach last year, awarded by the American Planning Association. The lesson, apparently, is that sometimes you have to shrink to grow.

It has increasingly become apparent that many taxpayers business ow and residents of the City of Buffalo would like to take a more active role in the affairs of their City and its allied agencies and authorities; and Whereas- Often times, the members and directors of City Boards, Agencies and Authorities are political appointments and the taxpayers, business owners, and residents of the City of Buffalo are limited in their ability to scrutinize the operations and decisions of these unelected officials and their respective governing boards; and Whereas: Foreseeing this predicament, the authors of the City's Charter created Article 18, entitled Boards and Commissions, and specifically, sections 18.1, "This article shall govern the creation and activity of all appointed Boards, Commissions, Committees, Councils or other like bodies in the City of Buffalo except as otherwise provided by this Charter or other law" 18 -2 "All meetings shall be opera to the public with notice of such being filed with the City Clerk" and section] 8-3, "The chair or head of each Board, shall in addition to the reports required by this charter, once in each year and at other times as the mayor may direct, make to the Mayor and file with the City Clerk, in such form and under such rules as the Mayor or this Charter prescribes, reports of their operations and action;" and Whereas: The City, in an effort to improve its information technology capabilities, has made a large investment in the area of telecommunications which has given the city the capability of recording and playing back for viewing on the Citywide Cable Access Television network (CATV) government channel, the meetings of the Boards of Directors of the Agencies, Authorities, Boards, Commissions, Committees, Councils or other like bodies of the City as well as other items of interest to the community as a whole; and Whereas: The City Clerk has advised the undersigned Common Council Member that notice of the required meetings and submission of annual reports to the City Clerk, as required by the City Charter sections identified herein, are not being filed by many boards and commissions nor are their meetings in all instances being recorded and played back for viewing on the City governn channel. Now, Therefore Be It Resolved: That this Common Council of the City of Buffalo is committed to advancing and increasing transparency throughout City Government, and especially in the operations of the City's allied Agencies, Authorities, Boards, Commissions, Committees, Councils or other like bodies; and Be it Further Resolved- That the Department of Lax advise this Common Council of its options, remedies and its ability to impose penalties for the failure of City's allied Agencies, Authorities, Boards, Commissions, Committees, Councils or other like bodies to comply with City Charter requirements; and Be it Further Resolved: That the Department of Lativ prepare and submit to this Common Council proposed - amendments to the applicable sections of the City's Charter, as well as any other governing acts or laws, which will require any Agency, Authority, Board, Commission, Committee, Council or other like body specifically created by the Mayor, the Comptroller or the Common Council, that will compel there to conduct their meetings in Common Council Chambers to allow for recording and playback, to file minutes of such meetings with the City Clerk immediately following the conclusion of such meetings, and to file copies of all reports commissioned by or prepared for said Agencies, Authorities, Boards, Commissions, Committees, Councils or other like bodies in a timely manner with the City Clerk; and Be it Further Resolved: That this item be referred to the Mayor and the Comptroller on behalf of any Agencies, Authorities,. Boards, Commissions, Committees, Councils or other like bodies that they have empowered, as well as to the Beard of Directors of the Buffalo Sewer Authority, the Buffalo Urban Renewal Agency, the Buffalo Housing Authority, and the Buffalo Board of Education for comment and respons6; and Be It Finally Resolved: That this item be referred to the Con - imon Council's Finance Committee for further discussion.

As A Step Towards A New Approach For Economic Development Whereas: The focus of City government should be on providing basic services such as police, fire, licenses, permits etc.; and Whereas: Due to fiscal problems at the federal, state and local level, city government must seek to operate in a manner that is efficient and cost effective; and Whereas: The Buffalo Economic Renaissance Corp. (BERG) with 25 employees and a budget of $4.7 million is not an efficient, cost effective or productive way to encourage economic development in Buffalo; and Whereas: City government should not be in the economic development business, as politicians do not know how to create private sector jobs, The poor results from government sponsored economic development programs speak for themselves; and Whereas: Eliminating BERC and leveraging its $4.7 million budget (which consists of federal and state grants) by joining forces with the private sector and the University of Buffalo, will result in more loan money being available for small businesses; and Whereas: What is needed in Buffalo is a venture capital organization that provides financing and support to local entrepreneurs seeking to create new companies; and Whereas: By eliminating BERC we can eliminate the cost of 25 governmental jobs and increase the amount of financing available for small businesses to create more private sector jobs; and Whereas: Change is always difficult but Buffalo needs to reinvent its approach to economic development. We need to keep an open mind and at least consider some new ideas. Whereas: Tweaking the operation of BERC to bring about Incremental change is not good enough. We need to completely reinvent our approach to economic development.
