INTER-OFFICE MEMORANDUM

From:
Gary J. Schneider, Director of Public Works

Re:
Elevators — Town Hall, YSB
At the December 21* Board of Selectmen meeting, a request for an additional
appropriation of $250,000 for Town Hall and Youth Services Bureau was tabled
for lack of supplemental information. Attached please find an analysis that was
completed in March of 2019.
Both of these buildings have only 1 elevator and service the public. The reliably
of these single cars is paramount to the services that are provided to the public.
The Department is requesting funding for both the High and Moderate Priority
items as those items identified as Moderate were recommended to be completed
in the 3 ~ 5 year window from the year 2019.

may be hard to come by,
With Otis, we provide you a plan to avoid
costly downtime, or even potential outages.
For our customers, we offer:

Waterford, CT Cade of Ordinances
Chapter 2.50 - ETHICS COMMISSION
2.50,010 - Preamble and declaration of policy and purpose.
A
Public office is a trust conferred by public authority for a public purpose, The trust of the public is
essential for government to function effectively, Public policy must be based on honest and fair
deliberations and decisions. Policy development must be free from threats, undue influence, and all
forms of impropriety, so that the confidence of the public is not eroded, By enacting this code of ethics,
the Town of Waterford seeks to maintain and increase the confidence of our citizens in the Integrity and
fairness of their government.
. The proper operation of town government requires that all public officials and town employees shall be
impartial and responsive to the public interest, that public office and employment should not be used for
personal galn or advantage, and that public officials and town employees should not place themselves in
positions where private interest conflicts with public duty.
C. in recognition of these principles and pursuant to Sections 7-148(c)(10})(B) and 7-148h of the Connecticut
General Statutes, there is established a code of ethics for all town public officials and employees, whether
elected or appointed, pald or unpaid.
(RTM. 12-7-20; Amend, of 2-4-13(1); R.T.M. 6-1-92 (part))
2.50.020 - Definitions,
A,
"Business with which the individual is associated" means any sole proprietorship, partnership, firm,
corporation, trust, or other entity through which business for profit or not for profit is conducted in which
the public official or tawn employee or member of that individual’s immediate family is a director, officer,
owner, limited or general partner, beneficiary of a trust, or holder of stock constituting five percent or
more of the total outstanding stock of any class unless the public official or town employee, or member
of that individual's immediate family is deemed to be associated with a not-for-profit entity solely by
virtue of the fact that the public official or town employee or of immediate family member is an unpaid
director or officer of the not-for-profit entity, "Officer" refers only to the president, executive, senior vice
president, or treasurer of such business.
