School Crossing Guards at Northeast School
With problems that have arisen at different times regarding the
school crossing guards it was the opinion of the Board that it
might be more expedient to hire men for these posts. The Clerk
was authorized to contact persons who might serve capably in
these positions starting in September. Salary was also discussed
and to set the scale equally with other municipalities it was
decided $100.00 a month to be a justifiable compensation for this
service.
INSURANCE- Clerk's Bond
Correspondence from the Boothroyd Insurance Agency indicated
that the Town Clerk's bond could be provided in whatever amount
approved by the Board and did not have to cover the total, tax
warrant. After weighing the subject carefully it was the un-

i.e. the Bond to cover the total warrant and thus give all concerned
maximum security.
INSURANCE- Electrical Equipment Owned by the Town
Boothroyd Insurance Agency, Inc. submitted a list of all electrical
equipment owned by the Town of Ithaca together with the cost to
insure them against explosion, breakdown, burn out and business
interruption. A three year premium price of $6,711.00 was quoted
with an additional 3 year premium of '$652.00 to provide total
replacement of any piece of equipment burned out or broken down -
making a total 3 year premium of $7,363. It was the opinion of
the Board that electric motors under 50 H.P. did not warrant
coverage since it would be cheaper to replace them and since
all the motors listed with the exception of 2-50 H.P. were 10,
15 and 20 H.P., this coverage seemed to be a rather high premium.
It was tabled at this point.
RESOLUTION 54 - APPOINTMENT Deputy Supervisor

Fine Street- Ownership

council and by to obtain a 50' right of way necessary for the
'flown to accept it.
Proposed Snyder hill Road Water District
A district contemplating being established in this area consists
of a tract of undeveloped land owned by a corporation and one
parcel occupied by a resident owner. The corporation is interested

time if the one resident owner is interested in such a water
district. The proposed maximum cost of constructing this water
district as quoted by Lozier Engineers is $200,000.
Study of Northwest Water and Sewer Districts

still. The Town Planning Board under the direction of Chairman
