A
C
Okay,
good
evening,
Adam
chairwoman,
we
are
resubmitting
an
amended
version
of
our
2021
certification
on
the
chargebacks
that
simply
reflects
more
equitable
distribution
of
costs
associated
with
early
voting.
D
Some
of
the
excuse
me.
C
A
G
I
know
I
know
years
ago
they
actually
the
charge.
Acts
were
based
on
the
assessed
value
of
the
of
the
towns
and
cities,
because
I
remember,
the
other
one
was
on
the
town
board.
We
paid
more
than
we
actually
actually
cost
us
to
have
elections,
but
in
recent
years
it's
been
whatever
the
the
cost
of
the
election
was.
That
was
the
chargeback.
Are
you
saying
that
this
has
changed?
The
system
has
changed
well.
D
C
Early
buildings
right
which
presents
sort
of
this
problem
because,
unlike
election
day,
chargeback
costs
right
prior
to
this,
which
is
still
included
in
this
by
the
way
that
was
based
on
simply
the
number
of
pulse
sites
per
municipality
and
inspectors.
So
you
for
your
own
poll
sites
and
inspectors
which,
by
the
way,
you
still
do
that's
your
election
day
costs.
Now
we
have
nine
days
of
early
voting,
so
you
have
this
additional
cost.
C
However,
voters
can
vote
anywhere
at
any
site
in
the
county,
so
it's
kind
of
like
you
know
it's
not
like
people
specifically
vote
at
those
poll
sites
designated
for
that
particular
municipality.
Early
voting,
a
voter
can
vote
in
any
site
in
the
county.
So
now
we're
presented
with
a
new
challenge.
We
have
early
voting
costs
with
Services
voters
from
municipality
can
go
to
any
location
in
the
county.
State
Board
of
Elections
has
not
advised
us
on
this
particular
issue
has
to
have
to
be
up
the
cost.
C
We
just
decided
that
to
be
consistent
with
election
day
costs
which
are
essentially
a
reflection
of
Municipal,
needs
right
because
it's
the
larger
the
municipality,
the
more
full
sites
you
have,
the
more
inspectors
you
have
so
Colony
at
Albany
will
always
reflect
in
terms
of
being
the
largest
right
so
and
also
availability
of
poll
sites.
Right,
that's
another
issue.
Smaller
towns,
you
use
a
town
hall.
There
are
no
costs
associated
with
that
in
Guilderland.
We
don't
have
that
luxury.
You
can't
Town
Hall
cannot
service
all
30,
000,
plus
voters
right.
C
G
C
We
have
more
poll
sites.
Yeah
have
to
understand
that
geographically,
the
pot
it's
different
in
terms
of
also
the
way
people
live
right,
so
in
the
town
of
colony,
more
people
utilize
their
own
cars
for
transportation
in
city
of
Albany.
People
rely
more
heavily
on
public
transportation.
So
you
have
to
take
into
consideration
when
being
able
to
service
some
neighborhoods,
whether
they
have
access
to
cars,
whether
they
have
access
to
public
transportation
and
whether
it's
walkable,
because
they
can't
access
either.
E
I'm,
comparing
like,
what's
on
five
to
seven,
not
the
whole
amount
right
so
like,
for
example,
the
amended
chargebacks
we're
looking
at
a
difference
at
about
17
000
for
the
city
of
Albany
and
a
little
larger
for
Colony,
but
probably
proportionately,
higher
amounts,
because
those
are
where
the
poll
sites
are
located.
Correct.
E
E
B
C
I
mean
it's
not
the
first
year
that
they've
been
charged
back
for
early
voting.
So
no
and
part
of
the
problem
is,
you
know,
as
you
know,
Metals
the
state
medals
with
elections
a
lot
and
so
like
there's
an
additional
primary
that
we
were
not
anticipating
right
because
we're
redistricting
issues
so
yeah
we
probably
do
have
to
send
them
a
memo
or
reach
out
to
them.
I
know:
I,
speak
to
supervisors
that
I,
see
and
kind
of
gently
remind
them.
C
There's
going
to
be
additional
costs
here,
so
yeah,
especially
this
year,
they're
going
to
see
an
increase
that
probably
wouldn't
have
been
anticipated
in
the
budget,
but
frankly,
Albany
County
doesn't
get
to
anticipate
it.
These
are
what
we
call
unfunded
mandates
right.
The
state
says
to
you:
do
it
we're
not
paying
for
it
and
then
you're
stuck
with
it.
F
Can
you
tell
me
how
many,
how
many
polar
sites
just
for
early
learning,
how
many
following
sites,
including
excluding
excuse
me
yeah,
five
yeah,
there's
five
and
where
are
they
located
so.
C
It
yes,
colony,
colony,
has
two:
the
city
of
Albany
has
one
in
the
South
End
and
then
one
like
on
the
border
between
Albany
Bethlehem.
So
it's
the
firehouse
on
Russell
Road,.
G
E
H
H
F
And
so
these
are
open.
How
many
days
oh.
C
C
Well,
they
vary
from
day
to
day.
You
know,
by
law,
we're
required
to
have
them
open
a
certain
amount,
Saturday
and
Sundays
nine
to
five
uh-oh.
D
B
B
B
H
C
B
C
Are
you
looking
at
the
total
number,
because
are
you
saying
that
it's
less
what.
C
It
was
based
on
the
equal
distribution
of
costs
for
early
voting
and
inspectors.
C
C
B
H
F
F
So
it's
simply
based
on
the
number
of
enrolled
voters,
correct,
okay
and
so
I
I,
don't
know,
I
would
agree
with
you
go
ahead
so.
E
Is
it
would
it
and
and
I
apologize
if
I'm
missing
the
point
on
this?
But
it's
basically
saying
that,
since
early
voting
is
technically,
let's
For,
Better
or
Worse,
let's
call
it
a
service
writing
an
extra
service
or
a
help
to
voting
that
you're
splitting
it
up
by
municipalities
by
those
who
can
be
eligible
to
take
on
the
additional
or
use
the
additional
service
rather
than
the
general
population
as
a
whole,
and
that's
where
the
numbers
are
changing.
D
E
E
Minimal
but
but
I
believe
that
and
correct
me
if
I'm
wrong,
it's
Paul
and
that's
a
like,
is
that
what
we're
looking
at
is
not
the
actual
cost
of
operating
that,
but
that
it's
all
based
on
a
percentage,
much
like
sales
tax
is
based
on
you
know
like
a
person
per.
This
is
now
all
based
on,
not
where
it's
been
whatever,
not
where
the
voting
sites
are.
It's
all,
based
on
the
percentage
of
voting
population
divided
from
the
whole,
is
that
right.
C
I
E
I
E
Right
but
like
based
on
the
numbers
that
you
have
and
that's
what
we're
going
on
we're
saying
that
that
we're
not
we're
not
charging
for
the
actual
pulse
site
right.
It's
not
like
that.
It's
the
percent,
it's
the
total
cost
divided
by
the
number
of
eligible
voters
in
each
municipality,
and
that's
the
where
the
families.
F
Come
from
so
at
the
same
time,
I'm
listening
to
both
of
these
you
know
ideas.
Three
excuse
me
you're,
saying
that
people
can
vote
anywhere,
but
you
with
the
sides,
are
based
upon
where
people
can
more
can
vote
they're
more
able
to
vote
that
site.
That
he's
talking
about
right
now
covers
awardably
Korean
eye
and.
E
C
B
Point
would
be
I
mean
I,
just
I
looked
in
and
I'm,
not
picking
on
anybody's
community,
but
you
know:
kahoos
went
down
four
thousand
dollars.
Watervliet
went
down
five
thousand
dollars
good
night.
C
You're
talking
about
over
July
certification,
yeah,
okay,
yeah,
because.
E
E
H
D
H
E
I
G
B
C
H
E
H
B
On
behalf
of
you
know,
so
people
are
beneficiaries
of
the
cost
shift
and
other
people
are
are
losers,
and
it
seems
to
be
that
the
the
suburbs
are
in
the
city
of
Albany
are
absorbing
a
much
larger
portion
of
the
increased
costs
of
a
special
election,
whereas
in
Caribbean-
and
hopefully
this
is
an
aberration,
but
would
it
you
know,
let's
let's
say
in
2023,
we
only
have
one
primary
day
and
one
general
election.
Okay,
like
normal.
Do
we
now
go
back
to
the
way
that
it's
actual
costs.
F
So
yeah
I
think
I
think
we
do
because
since
it's
it's
one
more
thing
as
you're
getting
information,
I
do
know
that
there
are
a
lot
of
votes
purged
in
the
city
of
Hollywood.
Okay.
So
yes,
I
want
to
know
when
yes,
I'm
sorry,
it
was
hard
yeah,
purged,
okay,
so
I
want
to
know
when
you
come
up
with
the
actual
number
of
enrolled
voters.
F
I
Have
a
question
that
so
when
it
sounds
like
if
you're
going
to
get
more
data
on
this,
so
it's
something
the
formula
we
have
right
now
for
the
last
two
columns.
It's
the
number
of
enrolled
voters
in
that
area
over
the
total
number
of
Voters
in
our
County.
Have
we
also
considered
making
it
based
on
the
number
of
actual
primary
voters
over
the
total
number
of
actual
primary
voters
in
the
county
that
way
he's
constantly
born,
but
who
actually
shows
up
and
votes
in
the
primary,
as
opposed
to
well.
D
A
E
E
C
So,
and
so
is
costing
our
municipality
the
cost
of
this
election
right.
Do
you
know
what
I
mean
so
just
so,
you
know
for
election
day.
That's
actually
what
does
occur
for
primary
cause,
it's
corn
by
the
municipality
itself,
where
they're
hosting
that
particular
primary
for
early
voting,
though,
because
you
can
vote
in
any
location
in
the
county,
it's
a
little
bit
more
difficult
to
kind
of
make.
That
assessment.
