Guest  editorial Town-­gown  plan  lauded,  but needs  public’s  participation  ,ÂśP H[FLWHG DERXW WKH Âł3ODQ IRUJHG IRU QHZ 0LGGOHEXU\ RIÂżFHV´ GHVFULEHG LQ WKH -XQH HGLWLRQ RI WKH Addison  Independent.  I’ve  devoted  my  professional  career  to  encouraging  and  assisting  communities  all  around  the  country  to  proactively  steer  their  futures.  There  are  far  too  many  examples  of  communities  losing  their  character  and  their  economic  vibrancy  to  incremental,  uncoordinated  growth  driven  by  short-­term  economic  opportunity  and  huge  corporate  domination.  How  many  times  have  we  all  driven  through  towns  that  feel  like  â€œAnywhere  USA?â€?  If  you  stop  and  talk  to  long-­time  residents  in  these  â€œchain  townsâ€?  many  will  tell  you  the  age-­old  story  of  how  their  town  changed  dramatically  from  one  sporting  locally-­owned  stores  and  high  civic  engagement  to  one  dominated  by  strip  malls  and  cars  and  suffering  from  fractured  social  structures.   They  will  share  how  these  changes  began  slowly,  almost  imperceptibly,  but  once  they  took  hold  the  momentum  bulldozed  over  the  town. +HUH ZH WKDQNIXOO\ KDYH HOHFWHG RIÂżFLDOV DQ HFRQRPLFDOO\ SRZHUIXO Middlebury  College  led  by  a  president  who  cares  about  the  host  community,  and  a  corps  of  volunteers  who  work  tirelessly  to  help  Middlebury  grow  in  a  way  that  will  reinforce  and  enhance  its  economic,  physical  and  social  character.  I  understand  why  this  deal  was  initially  hatched  and  pursued  behind  closed  doors  and  with  the  railroad  bridges’  replacements  and  a  perennially  short  construction  season,  time  may  be  short  to  consummate  this  deal.  I  still  urge  the  Middlebury  Selectboard  and  the  College  to  invite  the  SXEOLF LQWR ÂżQDO GHVLJQ DQG FRQVLGHUDWLRQ One  of  the  most  important  pieces  in  this  creative  puzzle  is  the  large  area  behind  the  Ilsley  library,  currently  hosting  a  sea  of  parking.  Under  the  terms  of  the  agreement,  the  College  will  end  up  owning  this  parcel  and  will  be  free  to  sell  it.  I  believe  many  will  agree  that  this  parcel  will  play  a  pivotal  role  in  the  economic  future  of  our  downtown.  It  is  the  last  big  parcel  available  downtown,  is  now  even  more  visible  with  the  construction  of  the  second  bridge  and  really  anchors  this  end  of  Middlebury.  When  you  look  at  the  GHYHORSPHQW KLVWRU\ RI 0LGGOHEXU\ \RXÂśOO UHDOL]H WKLV LV D RQFH LQ D \HDU RSSRUWXQLW\ DQG LI WKLV SDUFHO LV GHYHORSHG EDGO\ LW ZLOO VLJQLÂżFDQWO\ DQG negatively  impact  Middlebury  and  the  region  it  serves. I’m  not  sure  many  in  the  Middlebury  area  realize  that  this  parcel  was  intensely  planned  a  few  years  ago  using  a  visualization  software  tool  developed  by  the  Orton  Family  Foundation  called  CommunityViz™.  Several  0LGGOHEXU\ &ROOHJH LQWHUQV &ROOHJH 3URIHVVRU -HII +RZDUWK 0LGGOHEXU\ÂśV planner  Fred  Dunnington,  an  Orton  consultant  and  a  Town-­appointed  FRPPLWWHH VSHQW DQ HQWLUH VXPPHU DQG RYHU WR GHYHORS WKUHH scenarios  looking  at  how  this  parcel  could  be  developed.  The  differences  in  the  three  proposals  in  look  and  feel,  connectivity  to  Main  Street,  mixes  of  commercial  and  residential  uses,  and  general  economic  opportunity  and  impact  were  dramatic.  The  visualizations  are  still  available  at  WKH 7RZQ RIÂżFHV DQG VKRXOG EH XWLOL]HG DV ZH HQWHU WKLV FULWLFDO SKDVH These  scenarios  position  the  Town  and  College  to  consider  what  kind  of  parameters  could  be  set  on  how  this  parcel  is  developed.  The  scenarios  UHYHDOHG WKDW 0LGGOHEXU\ÂśV ]RQLQJ ZDV QRW VSHFLÂżF HQRXJK IRU WKLV SDUFHO DQG current  work  on  revising  the  zoning  may  take  too  much  time.  Furthermore,  we  shouldn’t  just  trust  that  the  parcel  will  be  developed  with  the  Town’s  best  interests  in  mind.  This  would  place  us  squarely  back  in  the  age-­old  story  I  related  at  the  beginning  of  this  article.  Instead,  the  town  should  continue  its  proactive,  long-­term  thinking  by  articulating  clear,  baseline  requirements  for  how  this  unique  parcel  should  EH GHYHORSHG WKHUHE\ HQVXULQJ LW IXOÂżOOV WKH HFRQRPLF SK\VLFDO DQG VRFLDO opportunities  it  presents.  This  approach  has  been  used  effectively  in  many  places  around  the  country  with  Burlington’s  waterfront  the  closest  example.  :H FDQÂśW OHW WKH DSSDUHQW FUXVK RI WLPH RYHUO\ LQĂ€XHQFH WKH ÂżQDO VKDSH RI such  an  exciting  and  important  proposal.

Letters to the Editor Wisdom  from  the  past  still  relevant  in  modern  times I  offer  the  following  comment  to  the  ongoing  dialogue  of  building  wind  towers  on  Vermont  ridgelines: “And  so  we  mean  to  guard  with  jealous  care  the  nobility  and  fresh-­ ness  of  our  scenery.  Here  is  that  wealth  that  can  never  be  exhausted Â

but  by  our  own  stupidity.â€? That  comment  comes  from  â€œRural  Vermont:  A  Program  for  the  Future,â€?  1931,  by  the  Vermont  Commission  on  Country  Life.  Ironi-­ cally,  the  commission  supported  a  proposal  to  build  a  scenic  parkway Â

VUHS (Continued  from  Page  1) presentation  program,  which  school  administrators  created  as  a  way  for  students  to  learn  what  it  takes  to  suc-­ ceed  in  high  school  and  to  cap  off  their  middle  school  careers.  (See  re-­ lated  story.) For  Beauchemin,  a  Civil  Air  Pa-­ trol  member  who  turned  14  last  week,  looking  to  the  stars  was  an  easy  choice. “I’ve  always  been  a  space  fan,â€?  she  said. The  Vergennes  resident’s  focus  narrowed  to  the  Apollo  13  mission  when  her  parents  drove  her  family  to  Massachusetts  to  see  a  lecture  given  E\ 'DYLG 5HHG WKH Ă€LJKW G\QDP-­ LFV RIÂżFHU RQ WKH $SROOR PLVVLRQ control  team.  Reed  and  the  others  in  mission  control  ultimately  helped  the  three  astronauts  to  return  safely  to  Earth  after  they  uttered  the  oft-­ quoted  words:  â€œHouston,  we  have  a  problem.â€? That  trip  to  the  lecture  ended  up  creating  a  friendship  between  Beauchemin  and  Reed,  who  served  as  the  outside  expert  that  Capstone  projects  require  and  then  traveled  to  9HUJHQQHV WR ZDWFK KHU ÂżQDO SUHVHQ-­ tation.  â€œI  listened  to  him  speak,  and  that  was  really  cool,  and  afterward  I  talked  to  him  a  little  bit  and  told  him  about  my  Capstone  project,  and  he  seemed  really  interested,  so  he  of-­ fered  to  help  me  with  it.  So  we’ve  been  emailing  back  and  forth,â€?  Beauchemin  said.  Reed  was  not  the  only  one  who  saw  Beauchemin’s  30-­minute  video  presentation,  which  she  made  after  reading  several  books,  visiting  many  websites,  and  watching  a  number  of  GRFXPHQWDULHV DV ZHOO DV WKH ÂżFWLRQ-­ alized  movie  version  of  the  Apollo  13  mission  starring  Tom  Hanks.  Beauchemin  was  one  of  a  dozen  VUHS  8th-­graders  who  earned  ³SURÂżFLHQW ZLWK GLVWLQFWLRQ´ UHFRJ-­ nition  for  their  Capstone  projects.  And  because  her  project  could  also  be  shown  with  the  Tom  Hanks  movie  and  clearly  demonstrated  required  &DSVWRQH HOHPHQWV VFKRRO RIÂżFLDOV chose  her  to  present  not  only  to  her  classmates  on  June  14,  but  also  to  the  7th-­graders  who  will  be  doing Â

Capstone  projects  during  the  next  school  year.  About  200  people  in  all  watched  her  presentation.  Middle  school  social  studies  teacher  Deb  White,  who  helped  co-­ ordinate  the  Capstone  projects  in  WKHLU ÂżUVW \HDU VDLG %HDXFKHPLQÂśV project  was  the  ideal  model  for  the  7th  grade  â€”  and  that  her  presenta-­ tion  had  an  impact.  â€œWe  knew  that  Alyse  had  been  in  contact  with  the  man  from  NASA,  and  they  had  to  have  an  outside  ex-­ pert  and  they  had  to  do  research  â€Ś  We  knew  she  had  those  components  and  was  really  excited  about  it,â€?  White  said.  â€œ(Her  presentation)  was  meant  to  show  this  is  what  it  looks  like.  And  we  already  have  7th-­grad-­ ers  talking  about  their  Capstone  for  next  year  and  what  they  want  to  do.â€?

Well,  no,  turns  out  it  wasn’t. Mitchell’s  squad  cruised  to  a  19-­1  record  on  the  way  to  the  Division  II  title,  thanks  in  part  to  the  efforts  of  ¿YH 2WWHU VHQLRUV DQG D VRSKRPRUH standout  who  played  well  enough  to  make  the  2013  Addison  Independent  Baseball  All-­Star  Team,  one  of  them  2013  Independent  Player  of  the  Year  Brett  Patterson.  Those  six  helped  the  Otters  roll  through  the  playoffs,  playing  errorless  ball  while  outscor-­ ing  four  foes  by  a  collective  total  of  36-­3  before  a  joyous  welcome  in  their  hometowns.
