people were at Valiant Martial Arts on 314 New Britain Road for a semi-private class. The practice was suddenly interrupted when a man in his 60s collapsed. “I remember, they noticed he didn’t get back up,� the girls’ father, Frederick Mor-
ley, recalled. The girls asked the man if he was all right, and he began to convulse. “He was vomiting and seizing hard ... It was pretty bad.� With only a few adults around, the girls sprang into action and called 911 while their father assisted with
medical attention. Remaining “calm and collected,� as their father said, the girls found the injured man’s bag and called his family on his cell phone. He was unresponsive, and by getting his family See Award / Page A2

The way the girls kept cool under pressure as they assisted the adults during the emergency impressed Valiant instructor Karol Steczkowski, who said it was an “act of true heroism,” remarking on how the sisters quickly “sprung into action and called for help,” as well as aiding in “making the gentleman comfortable until the paramedics arrived.” “I was really impressed,” Frederick Morley said. “They

cans were at their fair table early Sunday, next to a big â&#x20AC;&#x153;Stop High Taxesâ&#x20AC;? sign. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you look at the proportion of Democrats to Republicans to Independents in this town, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re definitely in the minority,â&#x20AC;? Anne Reilly, chair of the Republican Town Committee, said. But even though her team is outnumbered, Reilly feels the town is ready for a change. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like the boiling pot of water; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been slowly simmering, simmering, simmering. And itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s finally boiling, and people are seeing this has gotten ridiculous,â&#x20AC;? Reilly said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s happening.â&#x20AC;? Just yards away from where the Berlin GOP was situated at the fair, was the town Democratsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; home for the weekend. While the Democrats had yet to open up shop when The 1270581

Bristol resident said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;To this day they still never found her purse or her gun. She was in Building 7.â&#x20AC;? Findley said he went some 12 hours without knowing whether his wife had survived the devastation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It brings back memories; not good ones,â&#x20AC;? Findley said of the exhibit. The Lions Club was, of course, ever-present this past weekend. One of the clubâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s missions is promoting eye health, and at the fair, the Lions ran a booth providing quick, free vision screenings to youngsters. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re targeting kids that are five months to six years old with the five most common disorders. And the neat thing about it is, if the condition is detected and corrected by the age of seven, the optic nerve will actually teach the brain how to see correctly,â&#x20AC;? said Lion Dan Uitti. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And the child wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to wear glasses for the rest of their life.â&#x20AC;? The Lions first became eye health advocates thanks to a 1925 meeting with American author, political activist and lecturer Helen Keller, who was deaf and blind. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Helen Keller told the Lions thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a big need for serving the blind,â&#x20AC;? Marty Sandshaw, another Lion, explained. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So this is what weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re doing. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re trying to prevent blindness.â&#x20AC;? Being that an election is just weeks away, local Republicans and Democrats were happy to spread their message at the fair. Having been out of power for more than a decade, the Berlin GOP is eager to regain the reins of the Town Council in November. Local Republi-

Tips for the summer shutdown After a few months of blue skies and warm temperatures, summer revelers will soon bid adieu to the sultry days of this beloved season. Summer is often a season filled with vacations and recreation, but as the warm days dwindle and work and school commitments begin anew, there is additional work to be done in preparation for the months ahead. Stock up on pool equipment - Homeowners who have pools can take advantage of end-of-season sales to purchase a few more gallons of pool chlorine or other pool equipment. Store them after you have winterized the pool, and you will be ahead of the game in terms of supplies for next year. Plan your garden harvest - If you have a backyard gar-
den, pick your tomatoes and other vegetables before the weather starts to get chilly. Herbs can be washed and frozen in zipper-top baggies so they can be used when cooking over the next several months. Boil tomatoes for sauce and freeze or jar them. Begin to clear out residual stems and plant debris from the garden. Clean patios and furniture - Scrub and hose down outdoor furniture, cushions and living areas. Clean and dry items before storing them for the winter, so everything is ready to go when the warm weather returns next year. Purchase spring bulbs- Buy bulbs for spring-blooming flowers and map out where they will be planted for beautiful flowers next year. Wait until temperatures start to
dip before planting the bulbs, otherwise they may begin to produce shoots prematurely, zapping the bulbs of energy. Check the heating system Although turning on the heat may be the last thing you’re thinking about, it’s a good idea to test it and, if necessary, have the system serviced prior to the arrival of cold weather. Tend to the deck and other repairs - Make repairs to outdoor structures now, and they’ll be more likely to survive the harsh weather that’s just over the horizon. Apply stain or sealant to further protect wood structures in advance of snow and ice. Examine the roof and chimney - Winter is a poor time to learn you have missing roof See Shutdown / Page A18

NEW BRITAIN — Mary Ann (Andreachio) Esernia, 90, beloved wife of the late Louis W. Esernia, passed away Sunday, Sept. 27, 2015, at Arbor Rose, Jerome Home, New Britain, where she resided the past eight years. Born and raised in New Britain where she attended local schools, her family moved to Kensington in 1959, and she co-founded Connecticut Fast Freight with Louis where she served in several administrative roles for many years while balancing a devoted effort to raising her children.

Opinion Abercrombie recognized by League of Conservation Voters State Rep. Cathy Abercrombie (D-Berlin / Meriden) has been recognized by the Connecticut League of Conservation Voters for her 100 percent support of environmental legislation during the 2015 legislative session.
CTLCV’s Environmental Scorecard assesses both lawmakers’ votes on environmental legislation and their roles in championing specific issues. Environmental issues this year included banning microbeads, encouraging res-
idential solar, reducing pesticide use on municipal playgrounds, preserving the fiscal sustainability of state parks, open space and various clean water projects. CTLCV Scorecards dating back to 2000 can be found at www.ctlcv.org.
Letters to the Editor A true saver? To the editor: In his recent letter, Republican Councilor David Evans states, “Admittedly, I am a saver.” I would like to shed some light on the councilor’s position on issues which contradict this. Evans voted no to a tax sale program which generated over $300,000 in revenue from delinquent tax-payers. He voted no to accepting grants from the state via the Small Town Economic Assistance Program. He voted no to accepting a state grant of $11,000,000 to offset the cost of renovating Berlin High School. And he supported a capital improvement project to put an elevator in the Worthington Meeting House. The cost of this project was estimated to be over $1,000,000. These votes saved money? Bill Rasmussen Deputy Mayor
Rewriting history To the editor: Time and time again all we hear about is how a past Republican-controlled council did not properly fund education in Berlin for one year. Conveniently, in a election year, Mr. Jortner failed to point out that for approximately five years (1977 through 1982); three strong Democrat mayors in a row (Art Powers, Ida Ragazzi and Tom Ward) presided over budgets that did not
fund programs at our middle school, including sports programs. Bob Peters Former Mayor
Tax change To the editor: The Town of Berlin has a golden opportunity to change its real estate tax payment system due to a fiscal year surplus. The finance director and town manager should devise a tax payment system from a single installment to semi-annual tax payments. If presented to the Town Council for approval, and enacted, there will be many thankful Berlin taxpayers. William Wixon Kensington
was varying, but we finally voted on $69 million. From the outside, the school looks good, but at what cost? Close to $100 million. Why? Because the Democrats wanted it. Now I look at the empty property on Farmington Avenue where there was some thought about putting up a new police complex. There was a cost of $21 million, and, again, a referendum which cut that down. Watch out though; if the Democrats decide they want it, no matter what the voters say, they will do it anyway.

Bear population spike challenges DEEP 19 sightings reported in Berlin in past year By Olivia L. Lawrence The Berlin Citizen
After two bears were euthanized at Sessions Woods in Burlington in September, state wildlife officials say they will continue with education efforts to help the animals and humans peacefully and safely co-exist. An outreach biologist with the Department of Energy and Environmental Protection, forestry division, Kathy Herz said, DEEP “continues to get calls just about every day in regards to sightings.” Herz noted that bears typically don’t go into hibernation until sometime in November, and this depends on when it gets cold. If it stays warmer and food is available they will stay active. “Once it gets cold they will go into their winter sleep,” she said. The encounter between
a bear and a woman hiking at the Sessions Woods, “is raising important questions about how DEEP is managing a growing bear population,” according to a DEEP press release. Between Sept. 10, 2014 and Sept. 8 this year, there were 33 reports of bears in Plainville. That’s not surprising as the town borders Farmington (in close proximity to the state’s northwestern woods) where 254 bear sightings were reported in this time period. Burlington, with 322 sightings tops all towns in the state. Moving away from that somewhat wilder corner of Connecticut, the statistic go down. Berlin reports 19 sightings; Cheshire, 9; Middlefield and Durham combined, 5; and North Haven, 2. Sessions Woods is a popSee Bears / Page A12

Bears ular destination for local hiking and other outdoor activities and trails were closed temporarily after the Sept. 1 incident during which a male bear that had “exhibited bold and aggressive behavior toward a hiker” was euthanized, according to a press release from DEEP. Officials said a female bear also was killed later that day after “it charged one of the two DEEP Wildlife Division staff people that were on the scene.” When officials closed the trails, they described the move as “due to ongoing levels of unusually high bear activity in the area.” The trails are now open. DEEP stated it took action to euthanize the male bear because of the threat it presented to public safety due to
the previous behavior of the bear. Officials said the agency’s wildlife biologists talked to the woman who had encountered the bear and analyzed video she’d taken. The bear followed a woman, who was hiking, at Sessions Woods for an extended period of time, circling her, and even putting its mouth on her calf. DEEP had previously relocated the bear, which was tagged, to the perimeter fence at Bradley International Airport in June. Later that month, it attempted to follow a woman into a building in Windsor. In July, it showed up at a yard in Granby and “we suspect that it entered the home there,” according to the press release. Necropsies will be conducted on both bears to determine their condition to

see if any abnormalities could have contributed to their unusual aggressive behavior. “This is not a decision made lightly. DEEP staff has the utmost respect for the wildlife of our state,” according to a DEEP statement that also referred to the many situations in which the agency rescued and relocated animals. “There are occasions, like this one, however, when stronger action must be taken to protect the safety of the public. While we appreciate your concerns, imagine the public outcry that would develop if no effort was made to locate and euthanize this bear and in another future encounter it actually harms someone,” according to the press release. Herz said that while there were some concerns voiced from the public, about the DEEP’s action, it was a small minority. She told The Citizen about numerous efforts wildlife experts are using to help bears and humans occupy territories that often overlap. Because Connecticut has some rural and wooded regions it may seems as if there is enough wilderness for bears to live apart, but that’s a misconception, Herz said, as the state is quite heavily populated in relation to how much

This is going to lead to more interactions between bears and people and more discussion of the best way to address the growing population.” Herz is compiling a Frequently Asked Questions section for the DEEP website based on questions that came into the Fish and Wildlife Facebook page after the Sessions Woods bear incident.

can’t be relocated to a zoo or to Maine. She is currently preparing new signs, a sturdier, simplified version of the older ones, that will provide general information of what to do if you see a bear and what to do if one approaches. The signs will be available, on request, to municipalities for use in their parks and wildlife areas and in areas where bears have been seen previously. In addition, bear biologists are available to speak with community groups, such as land trusts, on bear related topics. DEEP asks residents to report bear sightings on its website and to make note as to whether or not the bear is wearing an identifying ear tag. The agency is currently engaged in a detailed study of the population trends of this species with the University of Connecticut. The results of that study will aid the agency in developing a management strategy for the future.

TOWN OF BERLIN – ASSESSOR’S OFFICE SPECIALLY EQUIPPED OR MODIFIED MOTOR VEHICLES FOR HANDICAPPED OR MEDICALLY INCAPACITATED PERSONS The Assessor’s Office would like to remind taxpayers of the local ordinance which allows a tax exemption of a motor vehicle that is specially equipped or modified for handicapped or medically incapacitated persons for the exclusive purpose of transporting such persons. (CGS §12-81c) For purposes of this ordinance, vehicles owned by private nursing homes or similar health organizations are not exempt on the grounds that said organizations are paid for said services. A vehicle is deemed to have been specially equipped or modified for transporting handicapped or medically incapacitated persons if the vehicle is registered in the name of a person with a State of Connecticut handicapped parking permit and alterations to the vehicle include one or more of the following: special hand controls, lifts, ramps, special seating or stretchers, significant modifications to accommodate medical equipment such as oxygen or mechanical respirators, and other similar significant alterations. A vehicle is deemed to be used exclusively for transporting handicapped or medically incapacitated persons when use of the vehicle is for no other purpose except for transporting handicapped or medically incapacitated persons. Persons desiring said exemption shall make application to the Town Assessor for determination whether an exemption is allowed. Applications must be filed annually October 1st to October 30th 2015. Call the Assessors Office with any questions at 26918 860 – 828 – 7039.
