C. Adoption of Board Protocols A motion was made by Gene Cvik and seconded by Becky Goodrich that the Board of Education adopt the following protocols: For the purpose of enhancing teamwork among members of the board and between the board and the administration, we, the members of the Owego Apalachin School Board, do hereby publicly commit ourselves collectively and individually to the following protocols:

1. Don’t spring surprises on other board members or the superintendent. Surprises to the board or the superintendent will be the exception, not the rule. There should be no surprises at a board meeting. We agree to ask the board president or superintendent to place an item on the agenda instead of bringing it up unexpectedly at the meeting.

2. Communication between staff and the board is encouraged. However, board requests

that will likely require considerable time or have political implications are to be directed to the superintendent. All personnel complaints and criticisms received by the board or its individual members will be directed to the superintendent.

3. Follow the chain of command. The last stop, not the first, will be the board. We

agree to follow the chain of command and insist that others do so. While the board is eager to listen to its constituents and staff, each inquiry is to be referred to the person who can properly and expeditiously address the issue.

4. Own your own issues. The board will not be a ball carrier for others – but rather, will

encourage other to present their own points, problems or proposal when discussing issues.

5. Practice the governance rule. The board will emphasize planning, policy-making, and

communication rather than becoming involved in the management of schools.

6. Clearly state goals. The board will set clear goals for themselves and the superintendent. The board and the superintendent will set clear goals for the Owego Apalachin Central School District.

7. Utilize CEO input. The superintendent is the chief executive officer and should make

recommendations, proposals or suggestions on most matters that come before the board.

8. Board acts only as a body. Individual board members do not have authority. Only

the board as a whole has authority. We agree that an individual board member will not take unilateral action. When board members serve on various school committees, their role shall be defined by the board as silent observer or active participant. The

3 REORGMTGJULY.DOC

board president shall be the spokesperson for the board to all media inquiries of the board.

9. Debate the issues, not one another. Conduct at a board meeting is very important.

We agree to avoid words or actions that create a negative impression on an individual, the board, or the district. While we encourage debate and differing points of view, we do it with the care and respect to avoid an escalation of negative impression or incidents.

10. Avoid marathon board meetings. To be efficient and effective, long board meetings

must be avoided. Points are to be made in as few words as possible; speeches at board meetings will be minimal. If a board member believes s/he doesn’t have enough information or questions, either the superintendent or the board president is to be called before the meeting.

11. Practice efficient decision-making. Board meetings are for decision-making, action

and votes, not endless discussion. We agree to move the question when discussion is repetitive.

12. Speak to agenda issues. The board will not play to the audience. We agree to speak

to the issues on the agenda and attend to our fellow board members. Facts and information needed from the administration will be referred to the superintendent.

13. Executive/closed sessions will be held only for appropriate subjects. Executive

sessions will be held only when specific needs arise. Board members will respect the confidentiality of the session and will be extremely sensitive to the legal ramifications of their meetings and comments.

14. Children’s interests come first. The board will represent the needs and interest of all

the children in our district.

INTERMUNICIPAL COOPERATION AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE TOWN OF OWEGO AND THE OWEGO APALACHIN SCHOOL DISTRICT, RELATIVE TO

SEWAGE DISPOSAL SERVICES

THIS AGREEMENT, made and entered into as of August __4__, 2016, between the Town of Owego, a municipal corporation of the State of New York situated in Tioga County at 2354 State Route 434, Apalachin, NY 13732, (hereinafter referred to as “Town”) and the Owego Apalachin School District, a municipal corporation of the State of New York situated in Tioga County with offices located at 5 Sheldon Guile Boulevard, Owego, New York 13827 (hereinafter referred to as the “School”).

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, the Town has an agreement with the Village of Owego to transport sewage from its Route 38 Sewer District to the Village’s Pumpelly Farm Sewage Treatment Plant; (the “Sewage Treatment Plant’); and WHEREAS, as part of same agreement, the Town has obtained the necessary approval from the Village to accept the school’s sewage; and WHEREAS, as part of said agreement the Town has the capability of supplying the School with the use of its interceptor lines and pumping station to deliver sewer services to the School on a temporary outside user basis; and WHEREAS, the School desires to contract with the Town for the purpose of providing the School with sewage transport from its new maintenance facility to the Village of Owego’s Sewage Treatment Plant as an outside user on a temporary basis contingent upon the School petitioning the Town for a sewer extension connecting the School to the Town’s Rt. 38 sewer district; obtaining any and all necessary easements and reports, including a map, plan and report prepared in accordance with Town Law Section 192, to effect said extension and installing a water meter in the maintenance facility ; and WHEREAS, by authority of Section 119-o of the General Municipal Law of the State of New York, the Town and the School are enabled to enter into binding agreements for the cooperative or contract performance of various municipal functions, including the transport of sewage; NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the mutual promises hereinafter set forth, Town and School agree as follows:

SEWER

1. The Town covenants and agrees to receive into its sewer system at the Town’s Rt. 38 Sewer District line, all sewage generated by the School’s new maintenance facility in the Town and to cause the same to be transmitted via the Town’s Rt. 38 Sewer District Force Main to the common boundary of the Village and Town, toward an eventual destination at the “Sewage Treatment Plant” in consideration of the payment by the School to the Town of the charges hereafter provided.

2

2. The charges to the School by the Town for transmittal of said sewage shall be based upon the flow, as determined by a permanent meter, measuring the facility’s water consumption. That flow will be used for all charges to the School for such transmittal. 3. The School agrees that in discharging sewage from its sewage system into the Town’s Rt. 38 Sewer District, it will at all times comply with the applicable rules, regulations and local laws of the Town and the Sewage Treatment Plant. The Town has adopted sewer local laws pursuant to Chapter 95 of the Town Code, to the extent that such local laws impose restrictions upon the discharge of wastes into the Town’s Rt. 38 Sewer District Sewage System, establishes procedures for enforcement and determines penalties for violations. The School shall indemnify and hold harmless the Town from all damages to the Town’s Rt. 38 Sewer District Sewage System resulting from the discharge of its sewage waste into said Town’s sewer system. 4. The Town shall have the right, power and privilege of inspecting, after appropriate notification, any conduit, main, service pipe, or attachment in the School’s sewage system up to the Town’s Rt. 38 Sewer District Force Main, in order to determine whether an actual, or a means for a potential, violation of the Town’s rules, regulations, and local laws, exist, or whether there has been any breach of the other terms and provisions of this Agreement relating to the Town’s Rt. 38 Sewer District. The Town shall give written notice thereof to the School, and the School agrees to remedy the violation or condition forthwith or notify the Town of the reasons why it disputes the existence of such violation or condition. Payment of any fine to the Town by the School due to a violation of the Town’s Rt. 38 Sewer District System including rules, regulations, and local laws governing the type, manner, nature, and strength of such substances, materials, waters or wastes to be discharged into the Town’s Rt. 38 Sewer District’s sewage system, if such a violation may be prosecuted, does not in any way relieve the School of liability to the Town for any expenses, loss, or damage incurred by the Town as a result of such violation. It is agreed herein that the School shall indemnify the Town for any expenses, loss, or damage to Town property resulting therefrom. The School shall only be liable for the payment of fines to the extent permitted by law. 5. The Town agrees, at all times to the extent of the capacity of its Rt. 38 Sewer District pumping facilities, to provide for and maintain proper transport of all sewage received from the School into the Rt. 38 Sewer District Force Main. However, the Town will not be liable for any delays or failures to perform due to causes beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to strike, lockouts, fire, explosion, theft, acts of God, riots, civil commotion, and malicious mischief. Whether or not the same is herein specified, and in any event, the Town shall not be liable for any damages that are not insured in its commercial general liability insurance policy.

3

6. The sewage rate charged the School by the Town shall be $12.25 per 1,000 gallons plus capital rate of $7.50 per billing cycle or a minimum fee of $285.38 if less than 23,208 gallons per billing cycle, plus capital rates of $7.50 per billing cycle.

settlements of claims, adjustment of governmental appropriations, or the like which have

previously been charged to the Town by the Sewage Treatment Plant shall be apportioned

and credited against the next following quarterly payment of the School.

GENERAL

7. The rates set forth herein shall become effective upon commencement of school metered water flowing through its interceptor pipe, to the Town’s Rt. 38 Sewage District Force Main. 8. The term of this Temporary Agreement shall be from date of signing of agreement and continuing 180 days to allow the School the necessary time to petition the Town for a sewer extension connection.
