DANIEL OLSON WHO MOVED FOR ITS ADOPTION, SECONDED BY MR. DANIEL MORRELL : RESOLVED, THAT MR. DANIEL GEALT, HIGHWAY SUPERINTENDENT BE AUTHORIZED TO ATTEND THE 1981 ASSOCIATION OF TOWNS HIGHWAY SCHOOL AT CORNELL UNIVERSITY JUNE 8TH, 9TH AND 10TH 1981 AND BE IT FURHTER RESOLVED, THAT THE TOWN BOARD AUTHORIZES PAYMENT OF ALL REASONABLE AND NECESSARY EXPENSES. DULY ADOPTED BY THE FOLLOWING VOTE : AYES: MR. OLSON , DR. EISENHART, MR. MORRELL , MR. ROBERTSON , MRS. WALTER NOES : NONE ABSENT: NONE LTR. HIGHWAY DEPT. MAY 26TH 1981 TO: TOWN BOARD RE : HIGHWAY SCHOOL ATTENDANCE I FEEL THAT YOU HAVE MADE A SHORT-SIGHTED AND UNINFORMED DECISION ON THE ISSUE OF IMPROVING THE JOB PERFORMANCE OF TOWN EMPLOYEES BY REFUSING TO ALLOW THE DEPUTY SUPERINTENDENT OF HIGHWAYS TO ATTEND THE NEW YORK STATE ASSOCIATION OF TOWNS HIGHWAY SCHOOL. THE ASSOCIATION OF TOWNS HIGHWAY SCHOOL OFFERS 29 DIFFERENT TECHNICAL SEMINARS WHICH ARE DESIGNED TO IMPORVE THE QUALITY AND EFFICIENiY OF HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT OPERATIONS. AS I EXPLAINED TO YOU AT THE TOWN BOARD MEETING OF MAY 12 , 1981 , MANY SEMINARS ARE OFFERED CONCURRENTLY AND , THEREFORE , ONE PERSON CANNOT POSSIBLY ATTEND ALL THE SESSIONS WHICH WILL BE OF VALUE TO THE TOWN. THE COST INVOLVED IN SENDING A SECOND PERSON TO THIS SCHOOL IS MINIMAL , AND MONEY WAS BUDGETED TO COVER THIS EXPENSE. ADDITIONALLY , THE SUPERVISORY EMPLOYEES IN THE HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT ARE QUITE CAPABLE OF RUNNING THE DEPARTMENT FOR THE 72 HOURS WE WOULD BE AWAY , AND GEOF AND I WOULD CERTAINLY BE REACHABLE BY TELEPHONE IN THE EVENT OF ANY EXTREME EMERGENCY . �-- SURELY ALL OF YOU MUST BE AWARE OF THE VALUE OF HAVING EMPLOYEES WHO ARE WELL VERSED IN THE MOST MODERN AND COST EFFECTIVE METHODS OF PERFORMING THEIR WORK. IN THIS PERIOD OF RAPID ESCALATION IN MATERIAL COSTS AND i THE INCREASING EFFORT TO PROTECT OUR ENVIRONMENT , ADDITIONAL TRAINING OF OUR EMPLOYEES WILL PAY IMMEDIATE DIVIDENDS TO THE TOWN IN THE FORM OF IMPROVED UTILIZATION OF OUR LIMITED RESOURCES. PROGRESSIVE PRIVATE INDUSTRIES AND PUBLIC AGENCIES APPROVE OF JOB RELATED TRAINING, AND SOME EVEN REQUIRE SUCH TRAINING AS A CONDITION OF CONTINUED EMPLOYMENT OR ADVANCEMENT. LOCALLY , SCOTT PAPER COMPANY HAS , ON OCCASION , OFFERED TO PAY FOR COLLEGE COURSES FOR SOME OF THEIR HOURLY EMPLOYEES ON THE BASIS THAT IMPROVED EMPLOYEE EDUCATION LEADS TO IMPROVED JOB PERFOF*NCE. I AM PARTICULARLY DISTRESSED TO FIND THE TOWN BOARD MAKING A DECISION LIKE THIS WITHOUT EVER HAVING DISCUSSED THE MATTER WITH ME. I FAIL TO SEE HOW THE TOWN BOARD HAD ENOUGH INFORMATION TO ARRIVE AT THIS DECISION CONSIDERING THAT THE HIGHWAY COMMITTEE HAS ONLY REQUESTED ONE MEETING WITH ME SINCE JANUARY 1 , 1980. IF IT IS NOT POSSIBLE FOR TWO PEOPLE TO ATTEND THIS SCHOOL , THEN I REQUEST THAT TOWN BOARD SEND GEOF NESTLE. I WILL MAKE OTHER ARRANGEMENTS TO OBTAIN THE INFORMATION THAT I AM INTERESTED IN GETTING FROM THIS CONFERENCE. RESPECFULLY SUBMITTED, /S/ DANIEL R. GEALT SUPERINTENDENT OF HIGHWAYS TOWN OF QUEENSBURY COUNCILMAN OLSON- THAT IS A LETTER AFTER THE FACT , WE HAVE MADE OUR DECIS- TION, MR. MORREL AND MYSELF TALKED WITH THE HIGHWAY SUPT. LAST WEEK, AT OUR REQUEST , THIS SOUNDS LIKE NO ONE TALKS WITH THE HIGHWAY SUPT. FROM THE TOWN BOARD SINCE THE FIRST OF THE YEAR. ON MANY OCCASIONS I HAVE TALKED PERSONALLY. I KNOW DAN HAS TALKED WITH THE HIGHWAY SUPT. ; A FEW WEEKS AGO THE TOWN BOARD WENT OUT WITH THE SUPERINTENDENT INSPECTING ROADSTHAT WOULD BE PAVED THIS YEAR. I DO NOT THINK THAT WE HAVE TO CALL FOR A FORMAL MEETING EACH TIME WE WANT TO DISCUSS PROBLEMS OR PASS ON REQUESTS FROM THE TOWN. AS FAR AS I AM CONCERNED WE MADE A DECISION THIS EVENING THAT THE SUPERINTENDENT OF HIGHWAYS IS THE ONE THAT SHOULD BE AT THAT SCHOOL,* NOT HIS DEPUTY OR ANYONE ELSE.
