The foregoing resolution_ was adopted by the following vote : AyLS: Supervisor McCulloch Councilmen Bates, Griffin, 1, andeville , Reginniss PdDES: None Mr, Edward A. heeler, the Town' s insurance broker, appeared before the 3carc'- to advise that he had received a new ruling from the insurance companies. He stated that under the new ruling the 'Town may purchase public liability and property damage insurance on the N. P. A. projects on a contingency basis, thereby effecting a large saving. He explained hoer the rates for public liability on public and private vuork are promulgated, also that the companies consider the question of liability as far as municipalities are concerned as secondary to the United States Government on 'dI. P. A. projects. He stated that he had taken the matter up with the company and that they will consider the ruling retroactive to the date in August when the rulin; was decided upon, although it nad not been released until re- cently. ;jr, heeler reported_ on other types of insurance covering the Torn against loss. He pointed out that the rates on compensation insurance written by the Ne,r York State Insurance Fund have been re- duced. for all departments and that dividends have been returned to the -- Torun account® He stated that -chile there is a large reduction in the rates for compensation for the year 1939, there will be a much lamer reduction in 1940, as the large loss which occurred in 1934 will be out of the record. He explained that the record of a loss is con- tinued for five years and charged in on the experience on the risk. Following sore discussion on all types of insurance, the Board decided to refer the matter concerning public liability and property damage on ':'J. P. A. protects to To,r.fn Attorney Delius with the suggestion that Mr. heeler confer with and furnish Zr. Delius with complete information concerning the new plan. The Supervisor asked if there was any one else who Wished to address the Board. There being no one the Board proceeded with the regular order of business. The Supervisor stated that it would be in order to consider the proposed budget for the year 1939. The Town Clerk read a letter dated December 20, 1938, received from C. Stewart Comeaux, Chairman of the Board of Park Conuviissioners > The letter was ordered received and filed. — The To-,.in Clerk read the notice of public hearing for the consideration of the 193° budget and presented the affidavit of pub- lication thereof. The Hoard thereupon proceeded to consider the protests and objections made by those who addressed. t'^e Board at the hearing held c, on December 13, � 8 , The various items contained in the tax budget were then considered item by item. Councilman Griffin stated that he doubted the legality of including in the budget of the Police Department fifty per cent (50%) of the installation of a radio at a cost of til B4:0.00 in so far as this item obligated a future Town Board to appropriate the balance of the purchase price and thus created an obligation beyond t'ne budget year. He also stated that he objected to the inclusion in the budget of the Fire Department the sum of ,16, 000.00 for the purchase of appa- ratus c,hich item he understood was intended to partly pay for a ladder truck and pumper at a total cost of !'w27, 000.00, which counsel had ad- vised might be bonded, provided a referendupi vote 'resulted favorably to a proposition for the purchase of this apparatus. He stated that it was his feeling that this apparatus should be purchased by bond issue and nothing included in this budget to make a partial payment which again might obligate a future Board to continue the payments. The fol"loi�,ring amendments were offered by Councilman Griffins (1) RESOLVED that the item contained in the budget of the Police Department (Page 22 ) under "Services Contractual" and described as "Installation of Radio (500/x) - �dq,840 < 00" be eliminated from the budget and the total of the budget of the Police Department and of the To-an of Pdamaroneck outside of the incorporated villages be decreased accord- ingly. (2 ) RESOLVED that the item contained in the budget of the Fire Department (Page 28) under "Miscellaneous " and described as "Provision for purchase of appara- tus - $6, 000" be eliminated from the budget of the Fire Department, but that it be included only to the extent of x'540.00, said si= being the estimated amount of six-months' interest upon a possible bond issue for the purchase of an automotive aerial ladder truck and an automotive pumper at an esti- mated cost of w27, 000.00, and that the budget of the Fire Department and 'the total budget of the Fire, - Lighting and ,later Supply District No. 1 be de- creased, by the net amount or the difference between ; 6, 000 and X540. A vote being ta'x;en upon the foregoing amendments, Councilman Griffin voted in favor of said amendments, and Supervisor vcCulloch and Councilmen Bates, Mandeville and !�,,eginniss• voted against the amendments. No other amendments being offered, Councilman Bates moved and Councilman ivandeville seconded the adoption of the following resolutions: Pd yPEAS, this Board has heretofore made, compiled and filed with the Town Clerk a proposed tax budget containing the estimated probable revenues and estimated expenditures for the several departments, offices and other town and special district purposes for the year 1939; and VIIEIREAS, notice of the completion and filing of said tax budget and callinc a public hearing thereon has been duly published on December 6 and December 8, 1938, in the manner required by law; and ZHEREAS a public hearing upon said tax budget was duly held by and before this Board on December 16, 1938; and fiELREAS, this Board has duly considered the protests and objections made against certain items contained in said ta« budget, and considered separately all the items con- tained in said tax budgets NOid, TMREFORE, it is 0 9 i t'��> t ,., ., .. .., �, G.� ,, i ,_r ., �. t.� :, .�. . .. 1, ,ti .. �, '� .>xi. � ., ,.. �, ui � } .. � s r` �. t.� :, .�. . .. 1, ,ti .. �, '� .>xi. � ., ,.. �, s s 9;.
