Council President Report
Council President Jankowski announced the next City Council meeting to be held on
Monday, September 28, 2026 at 5:30 pm at the City Hall Council Board Room, 2nd Floor,
City Centre.
Council President Jankowski also welcomed Assistant City Manager Julie Dahlie and
Department of Public Works Director Adam Rush to the City’s team.
HR Audit
Councilmember Lord said that this would just be an audit specifically for non-union
employees. He also noted that he hadn’t scoped the project, but would enlist the City
Attorney to scope something for Council to review if we were to proceed. He said this
would essentially be an audit of practices from hiring through the whole employee
lifecycle. Council President Jankowski noted his concern that the City’s four unions
haven’t asked for this. He also noted an estimated cost could be at least $85,000. He noted
that we’ve sat in extensive meetings and asked questions in executive session, verifying
that these were legitimate people leaving for legitimate reasons. He said it seems like we’re
micromanaging and overstepping our bounds. City Attorney, George Van Nest explained
that the issue had been discussed with labor and employment counsel at NYCOM and
counsel, and NYCOM are unaware of any cities doing an HR audit. He noted a few reasons
being that there’s a City Charter form of government and civil service requirements with a
host of regulations that apply to municipalities. He noted that beyond those two reasons,
the Charter vests responsibility for HR employment matters with the City’s Manager’s
office. He noted that in this instance Council would potentially be directing the City
Manager to do an audit in connection with employment matters, which are vested in that
office per section 53A of the Charter. He noted that employment matters are not vested
with City Council, respectfully. He said that there was no precedent for it, and that the
recommendation, both from labor counsel and our office, is not to get engaged in
something that isn’t specifically provided for. Councilmember Geib asked for the turnover
ratio. Councilmember Lord indicated that he had asked for the number but had not received
the information. Councilmember Geib asked roughly how many residents had contacted
other members of Council. Councilmembers Lord and DiSalvo noted that they had
received approximately seven inquiries. Councilmember Geib noted that Councilmember
Lord was asking to have an audit scoped out because seven people were concerned about
the number of people leaving the City’s employment that aren’t in union jobs. He then
said that we’ve talked about it now and were moving on, right? Council agreed to move
on from this item.
E-Bike Local Legislation
Police Chief Camp said that he had looked at e-bikes over the last six - ten months working
with sergeants and officers on the ground. He noted that he had information on what the
current law allows today, and some proposals Council may want to consider in a new local
09/14/2026

Page 32 of 106

law. He then reviewed the guidelines from the State Governor Traffic Safety Committee
and New York Bicycle Coalition about current laws for three different classes of e-bikes.
He noted that only two classes are able to be operated outside of the jurisdictions of New
York City. He said basically anybody under the age of 16 is not able to legally operate an
e-bike and that includes scooters. He also said that 16 and 17-year olds are mandated to
wear a helmet, 18 and older don’t necessarily have to wear a helmet. He said that some
municipalities have adopted local legislation that requires helmets at all times by any adult
operating an e-bike. He said there are other nuances that the local side of it allows that
would allow us to do as a municipality if we so chose to prosecute. He noted that some
municipalities were adopting certain laws, mirroring those laws on the local side to keep it
consistent. He noted how quickly the e-wave had come. Councilmembers McGinnis and
Briggs she that they walk in the morning, and have been surprised more than once by an ebike rider coming upon them quickly without any warning. Councilmember McGinnis
then said why can’t we consider registering bicycles or e-bikes or e-scooters, mandate a
helmet, and not riding on sidewalks. He noted that he would like to see if individuals to
have bikes confiscated by the police department if they continue to violate the rules, and if
they’re younger than 16 involving the parents. Councilmember DiSalvo said that he had
received many calls on e-bikes, and people want to see some progress. Council reached
consensus for the City Manager and Police Chief to develop possible ordinance changes,
enforcement methods, and resource needs, with a goal of reporting back to Council by the
October 13th meeting.
Amended Judge Clattenburg Appointment
Mrs. Tabelski explained that the court administration notified the City Clerk, Heidi Parker,
that the dates previously amended would need to be amended again to reflect the
commencement of her full six-year statutory term commencing on September 11, 2023,
and expiring September 10, 2029. Council agreed to move the item to the business meeting
immediately following.
Capital Project Resolution Update
Mrs. Tabelski noted that the updated listing included funds in its budget for capital projects
and uses grant and reserve funds to complete the projects listed. She additionally noted
that the Richmond Avenue TIP project was modified to correct the streets from (Bank to
Park) to (Oak to Park). Council agreed to move the item to the business meeting
immediately following.
Acceptance of Car Seat Grant
Fire Chief Graham said that the City Fire Department had received a grant from the New
York State Governor’s Traffic Safety Committee for $4,000 for Car Seat Safety for
increased child passenger safety and proper seat installation training to caregivers. Council
agreed to move the item to the business meeting immediately following.

Acceptance of GTSC Grant
Police Chief Camp said that The City of Batavia Police Department had received an annual
grant in the amount of $16,409 from the New York State Governor’s Traffic Safety
Committee to participate in statewide traffic enforcement details. Council agreed to move
the item to the business meeting immediately following.
Acceptance of Cyber Security Grant
Assistant City Manager, Julie Dahlie said that the City had received a grant from the New
York State Environmental Facilities Corporation (EFC) Strengthening Essential
Cybersecurity for Utilities and Resiliency Enhancement (SECURE) for $45,000. Ms
Dahlie said she wanted to clarify a figure previously mentioned noting $150,000 for
microphones. She noted that quotes had been received for approximately $148,000 across
three rooms. She said that approximately $116,000 was for Council Chambers and $32,000
for the Council Work Room and Community Room. She also noted that $70,000 was being
spent in the Chambers for the complete integrated audio system, which includes discussion
terminals, microphones, speakers, amplifiers, audio processing and networking equipment,
software and licensing, wireless audio equipment, and related components. She also said
the remaining costs were associated with the video system, controls, cabling and hardware,
installation, programming, maintenance, and support. Council agreed to move the item to
the business meeting immediately following.
Police Facility Project Budget Modifications
Mrs. Tabelski said that the City of Batavia had received funding from Rural Development
for the Police Facility Project and that adjustments to the project budget were needed to
more accurately reflect project tracking.

CITY OF BATAVIA – CONFERENCE MINUTES
MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 2026
Present were Council President Jankowski, Councilmembers Twichell, Geib, McGinnis,
Briggs, DiSalvo, and Lord. Councilmembers Viele and Schmidt were absent.
In attendance from the City were Chief Camp, Deputy Chief Herberger, Adam Rush, Julie
Dahlie, Scott Allen, Lisa Neary, Bailey Groth, and Teri Dean.
Call to Order
Council President Jankowski called the meeting to order at 5:30pm. Councilmember Lord
led the Invocation and the Pledge of Allegiance.
Public Comments
George Galliford, 10 Tracy Ave, noted that he gets his quarterly water bill and thinks it’s
crazy that there is no sewer meter but a charge listed for it on the bill. He noted that he’s
talked to a lot of staff about this already but feels it doesn’t make sense. He didn’t think
there should be a charge for a meter that doesn’t exist.
Council Response to Public Comments
Mrs. Tabelski noted that the change in the language on the bills occurred with the change
to the new utility billing software, New World. She noted this is to show how the balance
due on the bill is charged and what makes up that total. She noted that part of the meter is
charged to water and part is charged to sewer. She explained that previously the fees listed
on the bill didn’t provide a clear indication as to how the total was determined and this was
meant to be more transparent. Teri Dean, former water billing clerk, explained it’s a
financial allocation meant to show line-by-line how the bill is determined.
Communications
Batavia Rotary submitted an application to hold a 5K walk/run on Saturday, October 24,
2026 from 4:00-8:00pm starting and ending at DeWitt Park. The application has requested
approved for use of the park from the County so this is approval for using city streets.
Council approved.
Council President Report
Council President Jankowski announced the next City Council meeting to be held on
Tuesday, October 13, 2026 at 5:30pm at the City Hall Council Board Room, 2nd Floor, City
Centre.

Annual Audit Presentation FY 25/26 Drescher and Malecki LLP
Matt Montalbo, Partner at Drescher and Malecki, presented the audit and noted they had
met with the audit committee to review the financial statements in detail. He noted the
City would received an unmodified opinion which is the best opinion you can receive. He
noted there were no material misstatements, the financial statements were reliable, and they
found no instances of non-compliance. Mr. Montalbo reviewed financial trends, noted
revenue has exceeded expenditures consistently, and expect the amount of expenditures to
get more and more challenging in the future. He reviewed the fund balance and its
components and noted that it was in compliance with the City’s fund balance policy.
Kyle Patronik, Manager at Drescher and Malecki, reviewed the business-type activities
which include the water, sewer and City Centre funds. He noted that each fund is in a
stable position with major capital projects coming up in the next few years. He reviewed
their recommendations and observations and stressed the importance of succession
planning to keep things running smoothly once someone retires.
Mrs. Tabelski suggested Council review pages 13-17 of the financial statements which
addressed economic factors and next year’s budget and rates. She thanked the staff for
their budgeting efforts throughout the year. Councilmember Twichell was on the audit
committee and wanted to commend Mrs. Tabelski and her team for doing a great job.

public hearing for October 26, 2026. Council agreed to move the item forward.

Page 47 of 106

to move $1.5 million to various reserve accounts. Council agreed to move the item
forward.
Introduce and Set Public Hearing for Local Law #5 Repeal and Replace Chapter 87 of the
Laws of Batavia New York Flood Damage Prevention
Mrs. Tabelski noted FEMA completed the flood plain map revision and, to remain eligible
for insurance cost reductions, the City must adopt a flood compliant local law by February
2027. She noted this helps reduce the cost of flood insurance for properties located in the
flood zone. Councilmember Twichell wanted to bring section 87-10 of the law to
everyone’s attention as it related to the liability for flood damage. Council agreed to move
the item forward.
Intent to Declare Lead Agency for Flood Plain Prevention Local Law
Mrs. Tabelski noted lead agency status must be declared for this local law so this resolution
would accomplish that requirement. Council agreed to move the item forward.
Water and Wastewater Vehicle Surplus
Mrs. Tabelski explained that DPW is ready to surplus the old Vac Con sewer truck from
2011 and will auction the vehicle to hopefully bring some money back into the fund.
Council agreed to move the item forward.
Replacement of Squad 17
Mrs. Tabelski noted the 2015 F250 vehicle used for emergency response has significant
issues and would like to use reserves to purchase a new truck. Deputy Chief Herberger
noted the fire department can’t load equipment in the back because of the rot and the
vehicle, which is used frequently, is currently unreliable. Council agreed to move the item
forward.
Capital Project Closeout
Mrs. Tabelski noted the City periodically closes out finished projects and there were three
projects on the list that are complete and need to be closed. Council agreed to move the
item forward.
Approved Temporary Position of HR Specialist and Deputy Director of Finance – Succession
Planning
Mrs. Tabelski noted that succession planning is an important component of good
governance to continue services through the transition period. She noted that Teri Dean,
HR Specialist, planned to retire in December 2027 and Lisa Neary, Deputy Director of
Finance, planned to retire in April 2028. She recommended approving two temporary
positions for employees to train with current staff. She recommended budgeting $68,000
for the overlap in next year’s budget. Council agreed to move the item forward.

Emergency Purchase – O-AT-KA Force Main Cleaning, Jetting, Pigging, and Pump
Equipment
Mrs. Tabelski noted that in March 2026 an issue was found with the lift station and thanked
Bailey Groth, Doug Houseknecht, and Adam Rush for their work on this project. Ms.
Groth noted that the main was found to be clogged so did a lot of work to get it cleared and
cleaned up. She asked to reflect the expense in the budget and that O-AT-KA would
reimburse the City. Council agreed to move the item forward.
Revised Undertaking Agreement with Genesee County – County Infrastructure Grant
Program
Mrs. Tabelski reminded Council that they saw this in October 2025 but additional work
was needed. She noted this was a revision of the undertaking agreement with the County.
Council agreed to move the item forward.
Application for NY BRICKS Grant
Mrs. Tabelski explained that the City is eligible to apply for this grant to build, renovate,
or modernize community centers. She noted we can apply for up to $15 million and wanted
to identify the David M McCarthy ice arena as a place with an opportunity for expansion.
She recommended allocating $6,500 to assist in preparing the grant submission. She noted
the City would be working with the current rink operator to make it a multi-sport center,
acknowledged that maintenance costs were unknown at this point and asked Council if they
would like to move forward with this other amenity for the public. She noted that even if
the City didn’t get the full $15 million, the state would be aware of the project and may be
able to help find other funding opportunities. Mrs. Tabelski explained that the YMCA was
interested in working with the City on this project as well. Councilmember DiSalvo felt
that it was a great idea and was in favor of something like then when brought up in the past.
Council President Jankowski noted that the rink already brings a lot of people into the
community. Council agreed to move the item forward.
Roof Replacement Project Bid Award
Mrs. Tabelski noted that bids were received last week for this project and, after review, the

article.
C. Except in the case of a willfully false or fraudulent return made with intent to evade the tax,
no assessment of additional tax shall be made more than three years after the return was

1202-rr(8).
D. A final determination is reviewable in a proceeding under Article 78 of the Civil Practice Law

an occupant only after establishing that the operator repaid the occupant or will do so as
directed by the Chief Fiscal Officer.

LOCAL LAW NO. 4 OF THE YEAR 2026
CITY OF BATAVIA
A LOCAL LAW ESTABLISHING A TWELVE (12) MONTH
MORATORIUM PROHIBITING THE REVIEW AND
APPROVAL OF APPLICATIONS AND ISSUANCE OF
PERMITS FOR “BATTERY ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEMS”
IN THE CITY OF BATAVIA
BE IT ENACTED by the City Council of the City of Batavia, New York as follows:
Section 1: Purpose
The purpose of this local law is to protect the public health, safety and welfare of the residents of the City
of Batavia (the “City”) and to maintain the status quo by temporarily suspending the processing of land
use approvals as provided herein and to further suspend the rights of landowners and their designees to
obtain development approvals as identified below for a period of twelve months from the date of the
adoption of this local law while the City studies, analyzes and determines potential appropriate revisions
and amendments to the City Code regarding the propriety of Battery Energy Storage Systems (as defined
below).
Section 2: Definitions.
BATTERY ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEM:
One or more devices, assembled together, capable of storing energy in order to supply electrical energy at
a future time, not to include a stand-alone 12-volt car battery or an electric motor vehicle.
Section 3: Legislative findings.
This ordinance is adopted to impose a twelve (12) month moratorium on the issuance of permits and/or
approvals for Battery Energy Storage Systems (“BESS”). While the City recognizes that BESS are a key
component of renewable energy sources, since the technology of these systems is still in its infancy, there
is a significant amount of public and emergency response concern regarding the potentially volatile nature
of lithium-ion batteries, including fires at three different BESS facilities in the State of New York since
May 2023.
In response to these BESS fires, New York State Governor Kathy Hochul found it necessary to form an
Inter-Agency Fire Safety Working Group tasked with ensuring the safety of BESS across New York. On
February 6, 2024, Governor Hochul released initial recommendations from the Inter-Agency Fire Safety
Working Group, outlining enhanced safety standards for battery energy storage systems. The
recommendations included potential updates to the Fire Code of New York State as well as a list of
1

Page 58 of 106

additional opportunities for defining and implementing best practices. In July 2025, New York adopted
updated energy storage safety codes based on the recommendations, effective January 1, 2026.
As a result, the City Council of the City, the City Planning and Development Committee, the Zoning Board
of Appeals, the City Fire Department and the City of Building Department require additional information
and assurances about the safety of BESS facilities, including but not limited to best practices for fire
suppression and emergency response, ensuring the technology and availability of equipment necessary for
local fire departments should a fire occur, precautions to take related to gas emissions and deterring any
necessary fire suppression chemicals from impacting groundwater, and the adequacy of location and other
standards for siting of BESS. The City intends to study the safety and security of these energy storage
systems, including thermal runaway, off gassing and toxicity, stranded energy, ways to prevent fires,
prevent by-product contamination, and ensure emergency responders have the necessary training and
information to prepare and deploy resources in the event of a fire.
In addition, the City is concerned about locating BESS in proximity to residential properties and in other
areas where fires in such facilities could result in substantial harm to residents and damage to properties
in the City. The City is also concerned about other adverse environmental impacts BESS may have with
respect to locating BESS on or in proximity to environmentally sensitive properties, water sources, and
with respect to adjacent properties.
The City has concerns about the potential effects that BESS may have on the health, safety, welfare,
character and quality of life of the residents and citizens of the City and requires time to adequately study
the potential impacts from BESS and adopt ordinances addressing these concerns as determined to be
appropriate. Given these concerns and the current lack of relevant data and information on these issues, it
is proposed that the City Council of the City enact a twelve (12) month limited moratorium prohibiting
the review and approval of applications and issuance permits for any BESS in the City while these issues
are further considered and the City Code is adequately revised to address any outstanding concerns.
Section 4: Moratorium.
Pursuant to the statutory authority vested in the City to regulate and control land use and to protect the
health, safety and welfare of its residents, the City Council of the City hereby declares a twelve (12) month
moratorium on the review and approval of new as of yet unfiled and any and all pending applications for
any and all land use approvals, including site plan approvals, subdivision plats, building permits, special
use permits, zoning code changes and variances (hereinafter “Land Use Approvals”) for all Battery Energy
Storage Systems within the City. During the period of this local law:
1.

The Planning and Development Committee shall not accept any application, grant any approval
to, or continue the review of a subdivision plat, site plan, zoning code change, special use permit
or other permit that includes the permitting, construction and/or development of a Battery Energy
Storage System within the City. The default approval provisions of a proposed amendment by the

Page 59 of 106

Planning and Development Committee under Batavia Municipal Code Section 190-51 are
suspended.
2.

The City Zoning Board of Appeals shall not accept any application or grant any approval for a
variance or other permit that would have as a result the permitting, construction and development
of a Battery Energy Storage System within the City.

The Building Department shall not accept any building permit application or grant any Certificate
of Occupancy or Certificate of Compliance for a Battery Energy Storage System within the City.

Projects currently under construction and projects that have received final approvals are not subject
to this moratorium.

Section 5: Term.
The moratorium imposed by this Local Law shall be in effect for a period of twelve (12) months from the
effective date of this Local Law.
Section 6: Home rule.
Nothing in this Local Law is intended or shall be construed to limit the home rule authority of the City
under State Law or to limit the City’s discretion in setting fees and charges in connection with any
applications requiring City approval.
Section 7: Authority.
This moratorium is adopted pursuant to Article IX of the New York State Constitution, the General City
Law, General Municipal Law, and Municipal Home Rule Law of the State of New York. In particular, this
chapter shall supersede any provisions of the City Code and New York State Law which require the City
Council, Planning and Development Committee, City Zoning Board of Appeals or Building Department
to accept, process, and/or approve applications or issue permits for the development of Battery Energy
Storage Systems within specified statutory time periods.
Section 8: Severability.
If any part or provision of this Local Law or the application thereof to any person or circumstance be
adjudged invalid by any court of competent jurisdiction, such judgment shall be confined in its operation
to the part or provision or application directly involved in the controversy in which judgment shall have
been rendered and shall not affect or impair the validity of the remainder of this Local Law or the
application thereof to other persons or circumstances, and the City Council of the City of Batavia hereby
declares that it would have passed this Local Law or the remainder thereof had such invalid application
or invalid provision been apparent.

Page 60 of 106

Section 9: Repeal.
All ordinances, local laws and parts thereof inconsistent with this Local Law are hereby repealed to the
extent of such inconsistency.
Section 10: Effective date.
This Local Law shall take effect immediately upon filing with the Office of the Secretary of State of the
State of New York in accordance with § 27 of the Municipal Home Rule Law.

FLOOD DAMAGE PREVENTION
ARTICLE VI
VARIANCE PROCEDURE
§87-22. APPEALS BOARD
A.

The Zoning Board of Appeals as established by the City of Batavia shall hear and decide appeals and
requests for variances from the requirements of this local law.

The Zoning Board of Appeals shall hear and decide appeals when it is alleged there is an error in any
requirement, decision, or determination made by the Local Administrator in the enforcement or administration of this local law.

Those aggrieved by the decision of the Zoning Board of Appeals may appeal such decision to the
Supreme Court pursuant to Article 78 of the Civil Practice Law and Rules.

In passing upon such applications, the Zoning Board of Appeals, shall consider all technical evaluations, all relevant factors, standards specified in other sections of this local law and:
(i) the danger that materials may be swept onto other lands to the injury of others;
(ii) the danger to life and property due to flooding or erosion damage;
(iii) the susceptibility of the proposed facility and its contents to flood damage and the effect of
such damage on the individual owner;
(iv) the importance of the services provided by the proposed facility to the community;
(v) the necessity to the facility of a waterfront location, where applicable;
(vi) the availability of alternative locations for the proposed use which are not subject to flooding or erosion damage;
(vii) the compatibility of the proposed use with existing and anticipated development;
(viii) the relationship of the proposed use to the comprehensive plan and floodplain management program of that area;
(ix) the safety of access to the property in times of flood for ordinary and emergency vehicles;
(x) the costs to local governments and the dangers associated with conducting search and rescue
operations during periods of flooding;
(xi) the expected heights, velocity, duration, rate of rise and sediment transport of the flood
waters and the effects of wave action, if applicable, expected at the site; and
(xii) the costs of providing governmental services during and after flood conditions, including
search and rescue operations, maintenance and repair of public utilities and facilities such as
sewer, gas, electrical, and water systems and streets and bridges.
xxv

Page 87 of 106

Upon consideration of the factors of Section 6.l(4) and the purposes of this local law, the Zoning
Board of Appeals may attach such conditions to the granting of variances as it deems necessary to
further the purposes of this local law.

The Local Administrator shall maintain the records of all appeal actions including technical information and report any variances to the Federal Emergency Management Agency upon request.

§87-23. CONDITIONS FOR VARIANCES
A.

Generally, variances may be issued for new construction and substantial improvements to be erected
on a lot of one-half acre or less in size contiguous to and surrounded by lots with existing structures
constructed below the base flood level, providing items (i-xii) in Section 6.l(4) have been fully considered. As the lot size increases beyond the one-half acre, the technical justification required for
issuing the variance increases.

Variances may be issued for the repair or rehabilitation of historic structures upon determination that:
(i) the proposed repair or rehabilitation will not preclude the structure's continued designation
as a "Historic structure"; and
(ii) the variance is the minimum necessary to preserve the historic character and design of the
structure.

Variances may be issued by a community for new construction and substantial improvements and for
other development necessary for the conduct of a functionally dependent use provided that:
(i) the criteria of subparagraphs A, D, E, and F of this Section are met; and
(ii) the structure or other development is protected by methods that minimize flood damages
during the base flood and create no additional threat to public safety.

Variances shall not be issued within any designated floodway if any increase in flood levels during t
he base flood discharge would result.

Variances shall only be issued upon a determination that the variance is the minimum necessary,
considering the flood hazard, to afford relief.

Variances shall only be issued upon receiving written justification of:
(i) a showing of good and sufficient cause;
(ii) a determination that failure to grant the variance would result in exceptional hardship to the
applicant; and
(iii) a determination that the granting of a variance will not result in increased flood heights,
additional threats to public safety, extraordinary public expense, create nuisances, cause fraud
on or victimization of the public or conflict with existing local laws or ordinances.

Any applicant to whom a variance is granted for a building with the lowest floor below the base flood
elevation shall be given written notice over the signature of a community official that:
xxvi

Page 88 of 106

(i) the issuance of a variance to construct a structure below the base flood level will result in
increased premium rates for flood insurance up to amounts as high as $25 for $100 of insurance
coverage; and
(ii) such construction below the base flood level increases risks to life and property.
Such notification shall be maintained with the record of all variance actions as required in Section 87-14.H of this
Local Law.
