Guest  Editorial Youth  makes  a  good  case  for  legalization  of  marijuana As  a  state  senator,  Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m  used  to  getting  missives  from  countless  Vermonters  who  wish  to  weigh  in  on  various  subjects.  But  rarely  do  I  get  one  from  someone  not  even  old  enough  to  vote  that  is  well  researched  and  articulated  on  a  controversial  subject.

Yet  thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  precisely  what  landed  in  my  mailbox  recently.  A  middle  school  student  at  Camelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  Hump  Middle  School  sent  me  a  wonder-­ ful  letter  arguing  for  the  legalization  of  marijuana.  In  a  remarkable  coincidence,  she  had  reached  some  of  the  very  same  conclusions  several  of  us  on  the  Senateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  Government  Operations  Committee  had  reached  this  past  legislative  session.

We  know  legalization  is  coming  because  thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  the  obvious  pro-­ gression  of  the  issue.  Since  overcoming  our  previous  fear  and  para-­ noia,  weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve  learned  medicinal  marijuana  has  value.  It  eases  pain.  Producing  and  regulating  this  medication  has  led  to  the  creation  of  real,  good-­paying  jobs.

Our  committee  recently  toured  a  medical  marijuana  dispensary  DQG JURZLQJ IDFLOLW\ , ZDV DVWRXQGHG WR ÂżQG DQ H[WUHPHO\ FOHDQ WR-­ tally  secure,  almost  invisible  facility  so  close  to  our  Statehouse.  Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  run  by  professionals  who  know  the  science  of  how  to  produce  a  safe  product  and  how  to  conduct  their  business  within  the  parameters  of  the  law.  They  created  a  business  that  helps  many  Vermonters,  and  the  sky  has  not  collapsed.

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve  also  learned  recreational  marijuana  is  a  widely  popular  consumer  product.  Although  pretty  obvious  for  decades,  this  was  RIÂżFLDOO\ FRQÂżUPHG E\ Âł7KH 5DQG 5HSRUW ´ DQ H[KDXVWLYH VWXG\ recently  completed  at  the  request  of  your  government.  Vermonters  are  spending  upwards  of  $225  million  annually  on  marijuana  con-­ sumption  in  an  underground  economy.  Treating  this  consumption  as  a  legitimate,  properly  regulated  industry  can  only  lead  to  more  real,  good-­paying  jobs.

It  will  also  ensure  a  safer  product.  As  my  middle  school  friend  SRLQWV RXW Âł :KHQ SHRSOH EX\ PDULMXDQD RII WKH VWUHHW LOOHJDOO\ there  isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  any  way  to  tell  if  what  you  have  is  laced  with  some  other  GUXJ RU LQMHFWHG ZLWK VRPH VRUW RI FKHPLFDO ´ This  is  now  a  problem  in  Vermont  with  underground  production.  That  problem  can  be  eliminated  if  consumers  can  purchase  from  a  properly  regulated  retailer,  who  in  turn  purchases  stock  from  a  properly  regulated  producer.  We  do  this  now  with  medical  marijuana  and  alcohol.

My  middle  school  friend  also  believes  the  product  should  not  be  sold  to  those  under  21,  that  it  should  be  properly  labeled  so  consum-­ ers  are  informed  and  protected,  and  that  everyone  in  the  chain  from  cultivation  to  packaging  and  sale  should  be  license  and  monitored  A  HEIFER  WALKS  out  of  its  Weybridge  barn  last  Tuesday  to  take  an  evening  stroll. by  the  state.  She  prefers  local  growers  selling  it  in  local  stores.  Our  Independent  photo/Trent  Campbell committee  reached  the  same  conclusions,  recognizing  the  need  to  OHJDOL]H LQ D Âł9HUPRQW ZD\ ´ My  young  friend  prophetically  concluded  her  letter  by  suggest-­ LQJ OHJDOL]DWLRQ ZRXOG SURPRWH Âł9HUPRQWÂśV HFRQRP\ DQG VDIHW\ ´ Viewing  this  argument  through  the  eyes  of  a  middle  school  student,  itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  easy  to  discard  potlical  ideology  and  dismiss  the  fears  that  have  SDUDO\]HG E\ JHQHUDWLRQ ZLWK D SRLQWOHVV ZDU FDOOHG ÂłSURKLELWLRQ ´ I  wrote  her  back  to  tell  her  I  agreed.  Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  time  for  Vermont  to  begin  the  process  of  having  a  mature  conversation  about  marijuana  legal-­ ization.

Green  Mountain  Care  Board:  As  I  said  at  the  hearing,  I  implore  you  to  deny  BC/BS  Vermont  a  rate  increase  of  any  amount.  First  of  all,  they  received  a  7.7  percent  increase  last  year,  and  are  requesting  a  rate  increase  for  this  year  of  7.2  per-­ cent;͞  they  clearly  are  expecting  a  rate  increase  each  year  of  about  7.5  percent.  Does  anyone  these  days  reasonably  expect  and  annual  wage  or  salary  increase  of  7.5  percent?

Furthermore,  BC/BS  Vermont  makes  so  much  money  that  it  can  af-­ ford  to  pay  its  CEO  almost  $600,000  per  year,  and  the  collective  salaries  RI WKH WRS RI¿FHUV RI WKLV FRUSRUD-­ tion  amount  to  more  than  $2  million,  placing  these  individuals  in  the  top  1  percent  in  Vermont  for  annual  income.  In  addition,  categorizing  %& %6 DV D ³QRQSUR¿W´ VWUHWFKHV WKH OLPLWV RI FUHGXOLW\ 7KLV FODVVL¿FDWLRQ enabled  them  to  gain  a  $15  million  tax  exemption  for  2014.  Why,  then,  would  they  need  a  rate  increase?

VERMONT  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  A  mental  health  and  addiction  recovery  organization  formed  in  the  aftermath  of  Tropical  Storm  Irene  is  gaining  momentum  and  making  strides.  The  Wellness  Workforce  Coalition,  a  statewide  coalition  of  peer-­run  organizations  supporting  training  and  advocacy  for  Vermontâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  peer  workforce,  launched  a  new  website  on  July  24.

In  2012,  the  Vermont  Department  of  Mental  Health  invested  in  peer-­to-­ peer  services  after  the  closing  of  the  Vermont  State  Hospital. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We  believe  that  people  who  have  psychiatric  disabilities  themselves  and  have  been  through  mental  health  systems  can  offer  support  to  someone  currently  having  similar  experiences  and  we  call  that  peer-­to-­peer  support,â&#x20AC;?  said  Sarah  Launderville,  executive  di-­ rector  of  the  Vermont  Center  for  Inde-­ pendent  Living.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Oftentimes  we  hear  that  people  feel  scared  and  alone,  and  talking  to  someone  who  truly  under-­ stands  those  feelings  from  their  own  personal  experiences  is  invaluable.â&#x20AC;?

WWC  Coordinator  Julie  Brisson  noted  that  while  the  coalition  has  been  around  and  doing  good  work  for  a  while,  it  will  now  be  easier  to  share  information  about  that  work. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We  are  thrilled  about  our  new  web-­ site,  which  includes  our  member  orga-­ nizations,  support  groups  throughout  the  state,  trainings  and  conferences  and  resources  for  people  with  mental  health  and  addiction  recovery  issues.â&#x20AC;?

She  added,  â&#x20AC;&#x153;The  site  allows  us  to  spread  the  word  about  advocacy  events  and  news  about  whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  going  on  in  terms  of  peer  services  in  Ver-­ mont.â&#x20AC;?

The  website,  www.wwcvt.org,  was  designed  by  Dadra  Design,  a  Vermont  company  focusing  on  the  needs  of  VPDOO EXVLQHVVHV QRQSUR¿WV PXVLF and  artists.

Brisson  and  coalition  members  are  also  excited  about  the  formation  of  a  new  peer  cadre  in  Lamoille  County  designed  to  offer  peer  support  to  people  in  crisis  at  the  hospital.  A  per-­ son  who,  for  example,  is  waiting  to  be  seen  in  the  emergency  room,  may  be  very  upset,  and  someone  who  has  had  a  similar  experience  can  relate  to  that  person  in  a  very  meaningful  way,  whether  that  means  playing  cards  with  them  or  simply  keeping  them  com-­ pany  while  the  person  is,  for  instance,  transferred  to  a  psychiatric  facility.  All  of  the  peer  cadre  workers  have  lived  experience  and  have  received  very  specialized  training.

Brisson  said,  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sometimes  just  hav-­ ing  a  conversation  with  someone  who  is  in  crisis,  or  offering  them  some-­ thing  as  simple  as  a  beverage  and  a  snack,  can  change  their  whole  focus.â&#x20AC;?

The  peer  cadre  formed  in  April  is  a  partnership  between  Lamoille  County  Mental  Health  Services  and  Copley  Hospital  in  Morrisville.

It  is  modeled  after  a  Northeast  Kingdom  Human  Services  Peer  Cadre Â

PETS IN NEED HOMEWARD BOUND

Addison Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Humane Society

Tip of the week

Banjo:  6  yr  old,  NM,  Bassett  Hound.   Banjo  is  an  easy-­going  love  whose  main  goal  in  life  is  to  get  belly  rubs  and  take  gentle  walks!    He  hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  met  anybody,  two  or  four-­legged  that  he  doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  like! Â

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve  been  experiencing  hot,  humid  weather  lately  and  itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  a  good  time  of  year  to  remind  everybody  that  itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  best  to  leave  our  dogs  at  home  during  the  dog  days  of  summer.  Our  four-­ legged  friends  just  canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  cool  off  the  way  we  can  and  they  donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  wear  sandals  or  sneak-­ ers  to  protect  their  feet  against  hot  sand  or  hot  asphalt  so  please,  play  it  safe.

Chaco:  4  months,  NM,  Mixed  breed  puppy.   Chaco  is  a  smart  puppy  who  is  well  mannered  beyond  his  years  (or  months!)  He  is  submissive  and  affectionate  with  people  and  will  probably  grow  up  to  be  a  medium  sized  dog.

Brought to you by:

Abi:   4  yr  old,  SF,  Yellow  Lab.   Abi  came  to  us  as  a  stray  and  has  been  a  gentle  soul  to  be  around!   She  is  happy  and  wiggly  and  plays  well  with  others!   Abi  needs  to  lose  some  weight  for  her  true  Lab  spirit  to  emerge  and  so  that  her  family  can  love  her  for  years  to  come.

WhistlePig  has  thus  far  been  sourc-­ ing  whiskey  from  Canada  and  bot-­ tling  it  in  Shoreham  under  its  label.  The  companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  three  current  whis-­ keys  have  won  critical  acclaim  and  are  now  being  distributed  in  more  than  30  states,  as  well  as  in  the  U.K.,  Australia  and  Canada.

Now  the  stakes  have  only  become  higher  for  WhistlePig.  Gibson  said  the  company  is  taking  great  pains  to  ensure  that  the  whiskey  it  produces  on-­site  is  at  least  equal  to,  if  not  better  than,  the  product  it  is  sourcing  from  Canada.

To  that  end,  the  company  has  planted  two  seasonsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;  worth  of  rye  on  roughly  300  acres  at  the  farm.  Some  of  that  rye  has  already  been  harvest-­ ed  and  is  being  stored  in  waterproof  sacks;Íž  some  of  it  has  been  sent  to  off-­ site  distilleries.  Quality  rye,  as  well  as  premier  equipment,  will  be  the  key  LQSXWV LQ WKH ÂżQDO ZKLVNH\ SURGXFW Gibson  explained.

It  was  in  2007  that  Raj  Peter  Bhak-­ ta  purchased  the  former  Norris  Farm  with  the  idea  of  planting  rye  on  a  por-­ tion  of  its  467  acres  and  distilling  the  grain  into  a  high-­quality  whiskey.  He  and  his  associates  have  spent  the  past  few  years  raising  capital  for  the  proj-­ ect  and  obtaining  the  requisite  state  and  local  permits  needed  to  open  a  distillery.  WhistlePigâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  Act  250  appli-­ cation  drew  opposition  from  several  neighbors  who  were  concerned  about  VXFK LVVXHV DV WUDIÂżF DQG WKH SURVSHFW that  the  companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  whiskey  aging  process  might  produce  ethanol  emis-­ VLRQV LQ VXIÂżFLHQW YROXPH WR VSDZQ the  growth  and  spread  of  Baudoinia  Compniacensis,  sometimes  referred  to  as  â&#x20AC;&#x153;black  mold.â&#x20AC;?

ACTR  gets solar  panels MIDDLEBURY  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  Addison  County  Transit  Resources  (ACTR)  has  achieved  another  milestone  in  carbon  savings  and  reduction  of  operating  expenses.  The  Commu-­ nity  Transportation  Center  (CTC)  on  Creek  Road  in  Middlebury  is  now  harnessing  the  power  of  the  sun  to  provide  most  of  its  electric  energy  needs.  The  installation  of  the  180-­panel  rooftop  solar  system  also  completes  the  construction  of  the  CTC.  It  was  made  possible  by  a  grant  from  the  Federal  Transit  Ad-­ ministration  and  matching  donations  from  community  supporters.

The  array  went  live  this  month  and  is  expected  to  generate  50,400  photovoltaic  watts.  ACTR  antici-­ pates  a  90  percent  reduction  of  their  electric  bills.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re  proud  of  the  steps  weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve  taken  to  create  a  sustain-­ able  community  resource,â&#x20AC;?  said  Jim  Moulton,  ACTR  executive  director.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Public  transportation  plays  a  key  role  in  reducing  energy  use  and  low-­ ering  greenhouse  gas  emissions.  The  way  ACTR  delivers  those  services  is  according  to  the  best  sustainability  practices  and  standards  possible.â&#x20AC;?

Real Estate EQUAL HOUSING OPPORTUNITY

Rising above the water WORKERS BUILD A form alongside the New Haven River before pouring in concrete to create an abutment for the new bridge going in on East River Road in Lincoln last week. The bridge will be closed until Aug. 27, and all work on the project is scheduled to be wrapped up by Oct. 2. A detour is in place. Crews this week are preparing the footings to set the precast, as well as forming the retaining wall and footings and pouring more concrete.

formation on programs to help people trying to overcome addiction.

Brim subscribes to the idea that the new website will grow and feature OLQNV WR QRQSUR¿WV WKURXJKRXW WKH state.

“I have a good feeling (the site) is going to grow and become something the state will be proud of,” Brim said.

“And it all started here in Addison County.”

Those who log on to the new site can learn about such things as the warning signs of addiction, how to get information to help oneself or a loved one avoid getting addicted to drugs, potentially life-­saving tools (such as Narcan) to administer to overdose victims, where to go for long-­ and short-­term treatment, and how to get LQYROYHG LQ WKH ¿JKW DJDLQVW GUXJ abuse.

Also highlighted is the progress made to address opiate addiction in Addison County. As previously re-­ ported in the Independent, Bristol Internal Medicine, Porter Medical Center and CSAC have partnered to provide medication-­assisted treatment along with drug treatment counseling to help local residents overcome their opiate addiction. The Turning Point Center in Middlebury provides an ar-­ ray of recovery assistance, including support groups and recovery coach-­ ing.

It was the United Way of Addison County that provided funding to the Addison County Steering Committee on Opiate Addiction to spearhead ad-­ diction education and outreach.

Dr. Emily Glick, who provides medication-­assisted treatment at Bris-­ tol Internal Medicine, is featured in several videos on the site, which also

includes a link to the Vermont Depart-­ ment of Health’s ParentUpVT web-­ site.

Donnis noted other counties have been following suit with websites of their own. For example, Brandon Cares of Rutland County is planning a site, as is a group in Washington County, according to Donnis.

“Prevention is the key,” Donnis said.

Addiction help (Continued from Page 1) area physicians and other entities that assist people struggling with opiate addiction.

The United Way of Addison Coun-­ ty took a lead role in organizing the Addison County Opiate Treatment Committee following Gov. Peter Shumlin’s plea in January 2014 for the state to confront its drug addiction problems.

“We wanted to reach as many peo-­ ple as possible,” Donnis said of the website.

“We hope it becomes a statewide resource.”

A New York state website provid-­ ing opiate treatment and recovery information served as a model for the Addison County version. Mount Abraham Union High School students Courtney Loomis and Asher McCau-­ ley were instrumental in engineering the comprehensive website, according to Donnis, who also serves as a mem-­ ber of the Addison County Steering Committee on Opiate Addiction.

Neither Loomis nor McCauley could be reached for comment on this story as the Addison Independent went to press.

Bill Brim, director of the Turning Point Center of Addison County, said KH LV FRQ¿GHQW WKH ZHEVLWH ZLOO UHDFK a lot of people in need of help. The Middlebury center provides an array of recovery assistance, including sup-­ port groups and recovery coaching “The population I see, most of them are pretty well-­versed in social media,” Brim said, adding that some clients might be more likely to seek out Web-­based information than call a professional on the phone. That said, the Vermont 211 help line offers in-­
