Residents invited to ‘Rediscover Gowanda’ By Rich Place

GOWANDA — This village, and the surrounding area, has more products and services than people realize and it’s time local residents rediscover their own community and what it offers at its vari-

ous businesses. That’s basically the belief of the Gowanda Area Chamber of Commerce, which has organized the second annual Rediscover Gowanda event, set for next weekend, May 19-21, in downtown Gowanda. “People don’t know what we have

here and that’s why we are calling it Rediscover Gowanda,” said Janet Vogtli, one of the principal organizers of the event. “We want people to rediscover and find out what’s here.” Vogtli, a business owner for about 30 years, has seen downtown Gowanda change during that time. The advent of internet shopping, coupled with many potential shoppers frequenting malls and big-box stores in other communities, have hurt small town businesses, she said. The Rediscover Gowanda event will help local residents both realize what is offered at downtown Gowanda businesses and also why it’s important to support business owners who are also neighbors in the community. “By shopping local you are helping a business owner pay their taxes, pay their employees and you are getting great customer service because you know who you are dealing with if you have problems,” said Vogtli. Plus, she said many small business owners in Gowanda are asked nearly each week for donations to support local organizations, clubs and sports teams. “The business district is important in Gowanda,” she said. “We want to bring that hometown feeling back because if downtown disappears, it won’t come back.” See Rediscover, Page 24

Gowanda school’s budget ready for May 16 vote By Rich Place

Managing Editor

GOWANDA — Voters in the Gowanda Central School District will have the opportunity on Tuesday to cast their ballots on the district’s $30 million 2017-18 budget that includes a 1.39 percent increase in the tax levy. The budget, which was approved last month by the school board, essentially holds the line on spending with a 0.29 percent increase compared to the current school year. Less than a dozen community members on May 3 attended a public hearing on the budget in the middle school cafeteria. At that time, superintendent Jim Klubek and director of finance and support services Joelle Woodward outlined the budget to those in attendance. The budget includes a variety of staffing changes, and Klubek first explained the addition of the middle school principal and the reconfiguration of the district’s administration following a trial year of only two principals. A second grade teacher will also be added due to increase enrollment in kindergarten and first grade the previous two years, he said. Also anticipated is new programming such as a rifle team, an elementary intramural and educational after-school program and a new automated system to call substitute teachers. The budget also includes $4,500 for the board to attend an annual conference for the New York State School Boards Association (NYSSBA) and

$2,569 for a mentor facilitator, a teacher who oversees other mentors at the school. The budget also includes a position that is not expected to be filled following a retirement and potential for the elimination of a kindergarten teacher position dependant on kindergarten registration numbers. Also eliminated is an unfilled school monitor position and a savings of $28,348 is expected — should the school purchase an absence management system — from rearranging duties on another monitor position who is also responsible for calling substitute teachers. The district will also not fill two team leader positions in grades 7 and 8 to save $7,100. Expenditures include spending $34,481 less from the school’s appropriated fund balance compared to the current school year. That spending, which

In addition to the budget, voters will cast ballots on the modification of the vehicle purchase reserve and a proposition to purchase a vehicle from that reserve fund.

Perrysburg Town Board talks sewer system upgrades By Phil Palen Press Reporter

PERRYSBURG — Upgrades to the Perrysburg sewer system were discussed at the May 8 town board meeting. Water Superintendent Robin Clark said the system, completed in 1995, requires considerable repair, and while funding sources may not be available right away, “it can’t wait until next year.” Engineer Mark Alianello gave some details on what needs to be done to the system. He said an engineering report of improvements to the pump stations and main sewer line estimated a cost of around $300,000 in 2016. That figure would have to be adjusted going forward, Alianello said. He said a number of grants might be used to fund the construction, but the deadline for one is only a month away, and the town would have to draft and pass a bond resolution, conduct a State Environmental Quality Review (SEQR), advertise and hold a public hearing before June 16. Several factors are involved, Alianello said, such as a point system for a competitive grant based on financial need and community income level. He added that the sewer district doesn’t include the whole town, only the portion within the boundaries of the former village of Perrysburg, which dissolved and merged into the town in 2011. Clark said that regardless of the funding mechanism used, the system needs work now. He said that generators that run the lift station pumps are

OBITUARIES Bertrand Chaffee Hospital Kathleen A. Della Posta

GOWANDA — Kathleen A. Della Posta passed away peacefully Sunday (May 7, 2017) surrounded by her loving family at the Gowanda Rehabilitation Center. Born in St. Johns, Mich. on St. Patrick’s Day in 1934, she was the daughter of Dr. Leonard H. Blakeslee, a professor at Michigan State University, and Bessie S. Leach, who was a teacher at a one-room schoolhouse in Clinton County, Mich. She grew up and graduated from East Lansing High School in East Lansing, Mich., and graduated in 1955 with a medical technologist degree from Michigan State University, working at hospitals in East Lansing and Chicago, Ill. following graduation. She met her future husband in 1952 while working the summer at the Saranac Inn in Saranac Lake; on Jan. 25, 1958 she married Frank Della Posta, the love of her life, in Amsterdam (N.Y.). The couple settled in Gowanda, where Frank became a partner at Kysor & Della Posta Law Firm and Kathy worked at Tri-County Hospital until the birth of their first child, after which she became a full-time wife and mother of four children. Thirty-five years later, after her children had left home, she returned to Tri-County Hospital to work as a phlebotomist until the flood in 2004, which devastated and closed the facility. She continued to work at the Tri-County temporary lab located at the former Gowanda Psychiatric Center building in Collins until the Gowanda Urgent Care and Treatment Center was opened.

She continued working until the day before surgery for an aneurysm in 2014. She was a big part of the Gowanda community for nearly 60 years, including volunteering for Meals on Wheels and supporting the Music Boosters, Gowanda School Theater Program and PTA. She was very involved with St. Joseph’s Church, where she ran the religious education program, sewed vestments, and helped with the refurbishment of the church organ that included the painstaking process of applying gold leaf to the organ pipe. She was a member of the Cattaraugus County Choir and a lover and a daily listener of classical music. She is survived and will be deeply missed by her loving husband Frank; children, Mark (Annette) of Buffalo, Lisa (Elizabeth) of Rochester., Joseph (Melissa) of DeWitt, and Sara (Michael) of Briarcliff Manor;, eight grandchildren, Gregory, Kristen, Tyler, Maximilian, Natalie, Daniel, Ethan and Cole; her sister, Rosemary Farver of Bad Axe, Mich.; and brother, Bruce of Palm Springs, Calif.

Authorities allege Santiago conspired with Pacheco to deliver more than an ounce of cocaine to an undercover agent.

Budget deal includes West Valley funds U.S. Sens. Charles Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y., announced last week the congressional budget deal includes additional funding for continued cleanup at the West Valley Demonstration Project. An additional $7.2 million in Federal Year 2017 will bring funding to $66.4 million, the senators said in a prepared statement. “This $7.2 million increase in federal investment will keep the clean up on track in West Valley,” Schumer said. “Each year that the West Valley Demonstration Project goes underfunded, the amount of time and money it will

take to decontaminate and remove the radioactive waste increases. While the project is still shortchanged, this multimillion dollar increase is a positive step in the right direction.” “Increased funding will ensure that the cleanup at West Valley does not fall behind schedule,” said Gillibrand. “It is critical for the health and safety of Western New Yorkers that the site is cleaned up and radioactive material is removed without delay.” The plant was operated from 1966 to 1972 by Nuclear Fuel Services. It was shut down in 1972 after regulations at the time required plant modifications.

Cleanup of the former Ashford plant began with the passage of the West Valley Demonstration Project Act in 1980. Since then, contractors have safely solidified 600,000 gallons of highly radioactive liquid waste into 275 glass logs, performed other site cleanup projects and demolished more than a dozen buildings that were no longer used. Hundreds of thousands of tons of debris, including low-level legacy waste, have been removed to special disposal sites. The cost so far is more than $2 billion for the federal government and

hundreds of millions of state dollars. The extent of the cleanup is still being studied and debated. The senators agreed that the cleanup has been underfunded and that much more needs to be done to clean up the former nuclear reprocessing site. Schumer and Gillibrand said the increased funding brings the West Valley Demonstration Project cleanup closer to the $75 million annual appropriation the Department of Energy estimated would be needed. Cleanup funds have varied over the past several years. They totaled $59.2 million in Federal Year 2016.

Cattaraugus-Little Valley budget up, tax levy down By Rick Miller County Reporter

CATTARAUGUS — The proposed $25.9 million Cattaraugus-Little Valley Central School District budget for 201718 carries a negative impact on the tax levy for a second consecutive year, About 25 people, including members of the Board of Education, attended the district’s public budget hearing and meet-the-candidates event in the middle school/high school theater. The budget vote is set for 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Tuesday in the middle school/ high school atrium. Besides the budget,

several propositions and two board seats are on the ballot. District Superintendent Dr. Sharon Huff said the $950,000 increase in the proposed budget represents a 3.8 percent hike. It includes a part-time media specialist in the library, a technology integrator and another business office position. A third day was added to the after-school help program, including transportation. The tax levy of $5,327,320 represents a 1.9 percent decrease from the current levy, or about $102,000, Huff said. The district spends about $2.5 million, or 10 percent, on administrative costs,

$17 million, or 66 percent, for education programming and $6.3 million, or 24 percent, on capital and buildings and grounds. A $100,000 capital outlay will pay the cost of expanding the Franklin Street entrance and additional parking. The second proposition is a $434,000 proposal to buy school buses. Huff said at 90 percent aid, the buses will cost $43,400, which the district largely pays for by selling their buses while they are still in good shape. A third proposition calls for increasing the amount collected for the Cattaraugus Free Library and Little Valley

Memorial Library from $25,000 to $50,000. Huff said the district is also looking at $653,000 worth of capital projects for the campus. An estimated $240,000 is needed to repoint masonry on the elementary school, $84,000 for sidewalks and $329,000 for a new elementary heating system. With the district’s reimbursement rate, the $653,800 in projects would cost the district just over $65,000. Board President Ben Stoll and board member Rob Forster both spoke briefly on why they are seeking re-election to three-year terms.

Erie County launches Junior Park Ranger program Family Day returns BUFFALO — A new self-guided program focused on introducing children and their families to explore the Erie County Park System was recently launched, with participants encouraged to visit at least 10 county-owned facilities to qualify for classification as a Junior Park Ranger. The Erie County Department of Parks, Recreation and Forestry is overseeing the program, which promotes the many recreational opportunities available on a year-round basis at nearly 20 different park properties located throughout Western New York, including sites that can be enjoyed in natural environmental areas that showcase the beauty of each destination. “The Junior Park Ranger Program began May 1 as a way for the county to encourage children and all those who are young at heart to visit our parks and realize that there is something for everyone,” said Erie County Parks Commissioner Daniel J. Rizzo. “We

have over 10,000 acres of parkland that is owned and maintained by Erie County. Our parks are open to everyone and there are no admission fees, making them the perfect destinations for family fun. I encourage families to embrace the Junior Park Ranger Program and make it a family project this year to attain Junior Park Ranger status.” The Junior Park Ranger Program is being launched in conjunction with the recent distribution of the Erie County Park System Passport, a 32-page pocket-sized guide to the county parks that includes the history and list of activities that can be enjoyed at each location. The free guides can be obtained by visiting designated pick-up points within select parks or by asking one of the county’s Park Rangers for a passport. The passport can also be downloaded and printed by participants. In order to become a Junior Park Ranger, participants must visit the county’s five “heritage” parks (Akron

Falls, Chestnut Ridge, Como Lake, Ellicott Creek, Emery) and at least five of the other parks listed in the Parks Passport. At each park a special code will be posted in a prominent place that participants then record inside their passport. In addition, hints, maps and geographic coordinates of where each special code is located within each park will be available on the county’s website. The process is completed when participants visit the website and complete the Junior Park Ranger application or visit the Parks Department’s office inside the Rath Building, 95 Franklin St. in Buffalo. Once the complete passports have been approved and it has been determined the requirements have been met, Junior Park Ranger certificates will be mailed to each Junior Park Ranger, with plans for a ceremony honoring all of the 2017 Junior Park Rangers to be held at Chestnut Ridge Park later this year.

Olean bests Gowanda at Coca-Cola Field By Shawn Campbell Special to The Press

BUFFALO — Coca-Cola Field is often a place where big-league hopefuls hone their skills. While the Olean High School baseball team possesses a potent lineup, it, too, had to make some adjustments Monday at Buffalo’s downtown ballpark. Soft-throwing Gowanda right-hander Jack Van Wey held the Huskies’ hitters in check on a cool day made colder by blustery winds. But Olean broke through for a three-run fifth inning to make its time at the Buffalo Bisons’ home successful. Catcher Justin Retchless delivered a goahead two-RBI single, lifting OHS to a 6-3 win in a Chautauqua Cattaraugus Division I East matchup before an estimated 125 fans. “He threw a lot of junk, a lot of curveball, changeup,” Retchless, a senior captain, said of Van Wey. “We haven’t seen it that much — all of our pitchers throw pretty hard — so it’s kind of hard to get used to.” However, the Huskies (7-1, 5-0) managed to do so, making the day even more memorable. “It would’ve been nicer if it was a little warmer, but this is awesome,” Olean coach John Zambanini said. “I thought this was turf when we first got here. A guy said, ‘No, that’s real grass.’ It was a good experience for the kids. I would like to be here every day.” Said Gowanda coach Tim Smith: “Obviously, it’s a thrill. You’re playing on a field that guys are one step away from the major leagues on.” Olean was the home team in the league game, but it was Smith who, through a friend who works for the Bisons, arranged the setting. The Huskies had defeated the Panthers 9-0 last month but faced a greater challenge in the rematch. Van Wey pitched a complete game, allowing seven hits. “Their kid pitched a good game,” Zambanini said. “I always tell the kids, ‘You’ve got to be able to hit the off-speed pitch in

high school.’ We didn’t at first. He kept us off-balance.” Smith said, “My thought was they can hit fastballs. Jack soaking wet is 120 pounds and doesn’t throw too hard. He’s more of a finesse guy. I thought if he would be able to hit his spots, get some corners, keep the ball off the middle of the plate and kind of take his time that he might be able to have some sort of advantage, and it worked. I would’ve signed up for six runs against those guys.” Olean resorted to some small ball to get its offense going. In the third inning, for example, Nos. 8 and 9 hitters Dylan Spencer and Nick Crandall led off with back-to-back bunt singles. Two batters later, Dell Butler drove in both on a double. Butler also had a sacrifice fly in the first inning after Garrett Boldt tripled. “I told the kids, too, ‘We’re playing everybody again (a second time), so don’t expect just to go in there and things to happen. You’ve got to go in there and play every game,’” Zambanini said. “We were definitely a little flat hitting-wise. We were off for a week, too. That stinks. You kind of maybe get out of a groove.” The Huskies will be busy this week, though. They are scheduled to play seven games in six days. Matt Kruszka (RBI) and Brian Gernatt had two hits each for Gowanda (6-6, 2-3). The Panthers tied the game at 3-3 in the top of the fifth. Boldt, who started, struggled with command but limited Gowanda’s scoring to earn the win. The senior struck out eight batters but walked five and hit two others over five innings. Luke Chapman pitched two scoreless innings in relief. Against Boldt, the Panthers had multiple baserunners in four frames — twice loading the bases with no outs — but stranded nine runners. “The real difference in that game was they had guys on at certain points and some of the guys in the middle, bottom of the lineup came through,” Smith said of Olean. “We didn’t have the same thing happen.”

ALLEGANY — It’s a good time to be a member of the Allegany-Limestone baseball team. Not only are the Gators winning, but they also keep finding thrilling — and interesting — ways to do so. A week after using a seven-run seventh inning to stun Portville, A-L on May 3 hosted Gowanda — a team that had handed it eight straight losses over the past four years. The Gators ended their frustration against the Panthers with a 3-2 CCAA I East victory at Stayer Park. But it took extra innings. It took a rally from a 2-0 hole against Gowanda

ace Matt Kruszka, who three-hit A-L on April 21. And it took an unconventional game-winning hit from senior shortstop Zach Hemphill. With the bases loaded and one out in the ninth, Hemphill hit a soft nubber that barely landed in front of Gowanda’s charging pitcher and third baseman. With the Panthers failing to make a throw, Tommy Moran slid home to give the Gators their fifth straight triumph. The infield hit capped a 3-for-5 day at the plate for Hemphill — son of A-L coach Eric Hemphill. “I said to him, ‘Can’t you just hit a ball to the outfield and make it look routine?’” the coach and father joked, “but we’ll take it.” Gowanda (6-5, 2-2) had brought its infield in, anticipating such a play. “They gave us exactly what we wanted — a little looping fly ball that, with us being in, I think the play should’ve been made, but it wasn’t,” Panthers coach Tim Smith said. “We had it right in front of our faces and we kind of gave it away.” Said Eric Hemphill: “If they catch it, it’s a double play, we’re going to the 10th.” Instead, the Gators (6-2, 5-1) prevailed and, as a result, have now avenged both of their losses on the season. The other defeat was by Maple Grove to begin the year. “That’s always a good thing for us, and we talk about that,” Eric Hemphill said. “Come back and if you can beat a See Baseball, Page 23

The early history of Gowanda baseball By Mark Benton

Sports Correspondent

The first account of a win-loss record for the Gowanda High School varsity baseball program dates back to the spring of 1941, which was the same time a new sports complex located at the corner of Aldrich and North Water Streets was unveiled. The school district had purchased the large parcel of land that was formerly the Farley family farm. Placed within the several acres of green space was a football field, a baseball diamond and a quarter mile track. But it wasn't easy. The cinder track surrounding the football field made sense, as it fit perfectly within the confines of what was simply known as the Gowanda Athletic Field. But to wedge a baseball diamond into the area took some doing. Home plate of the baseball diamond was situated in the northwest corner of the complex. And with those dimensions, the right field fence was just a short poke even for high school baseball standards. In addition, the baseball infield overlapped part of the football field. The one goalpost nearest Aldrich Street that stood between first and second base during football season had to be removed each spring. “Anyone that batted left handed and could pull the ball to right field had an easy home run,” noted Dick Rooney, a pitcher on the 1944 undefeated GHS varsity baseball team. And with a crushed cinder track running through part of the

diamond, it made for some treacherous footing and/or spills for anyone playing right or center field. The baseball diamond remained in that area of the athletic field until the new Tri-County Memorial Hospital was built in the late 1940s and early 1950s. A good amount that top soil from the hospital site was then hauled over to the nearby Gowanda Athletic Field. There, it was deposited in the southeast corner and would

be used for the realigned baseball infield, as the entire diamond was reconfigured. “Coach Hillis used to have the students in his gym classes walk around that new infield for the entire 40-minute period and just pick up stones,” remembered the late George Dispenza. Before long, the sound of “Play Ball!” could be heard coming from that repositioned field. That time period also coincided with the lights that were installed at the field

and first used on Nov. 11, 1949 for a high school football game against Southwestern. When the baseball season began the following year, Gowanda High School was also able to host night baseball games for the first time. Although Gowanda had this new field with lights, there were still obstacles in place. The ¼ -mile track was See History, Page 23

22 Report from Page 19 ent weather is wreaking havoc on the spring sports schedule with several games being postponed. n The Gowanda Central School athletic department has been busy this spring with four different sports in operation. During one particular day in late April, the varsity baseball and softball teams hosted Olean while the modified boys lacrosse team took on Iroquois. All three contests were held on the fields next to the high school. There was also a junior varsity lacrosse game at Hillis Field that took place immediately after the boys and girls modified and varsity track and field teams completed practice that afternoon. n Perrysburg resident and 2016 Gowanda Central School graduate Taylor Olson just completed her first of softball pitching for Notre Dame College in Ohio. Olson was a hard luck loser as her team lost back to back 1-0 games on May 5 and were eliminated in the Mountain East Conference tournament. Olson did not allow an earned

run in either game and only gave up a total of seven hits in both games that she pitched. Notre Dame of Ohio, a Division II school, posted an overall record of 23-30 for the 2017 season. Olson was the team's top pitcher. n The Gowanda area co-ed youth soccer program for boys and girls between the ages of 5 and 14 had their first session on Thursday, May 11 at the George Dispenza Memorial Field located on Broadway Road. The program that runs from 6 to 7:30 p.m. every Thursday night through June 8 still has a few openings. Previous soccer experience is not mandatory. Call the program director at 532-4053 or email hidibenton@aol.com to register. n Gowanda Recreation is accepting applications through May 17 for its six-week summer program. Certified lifeguards, playground counselors and arts and crafts instructors are needed. Applicants must be at least 16 years of age, have a strong background in sports and be in good academic standing. Applications can be picked up and returned to the village office at 27 East Main St.

We may not win pretty. “I think if we can get a little more consistency going with our bats, we’re going to be dangerous in that C-1 bracket (in the Section 6 playoffs).” Pitching certainly wasn’t a problem for A-L on Wednesday. The Gators’ top two arms outdueled Kruszka, who recorded nine strikeouts, issued one walk, hit a batter and allowed six hits over 7 2/3 innings. A-L senior Ryan Schlosser impressed, going the first 6 1/3 innings, striking out 13, walking three and scattering four singles. After Schlosser reached the 105-pitch limit, he gave way to classmate Sean Conroy, who didn’t allow a hit and struck out three. The game, postponed Tuesday, had an early 3:30 p.m. start time to allow some players to attend the Cattaraugus County National Honor Society banquet that evening, including Schlosser and Conroy.

Many players would eventually suffer cinder burns from landing on the track while pursuing a baseball during a game or practice.

Gowanda took a 2-0 lead with two unearned runs in the fourth inning. On a double-steal by David Poff and Andrew Kruszka, Poff scored on an errant throw to third base and Kruszka came home in the same at-bat on a dropped third strike. In the fourth inning, Conroy singled and scored on a groundout by Marcus Grove (double) after advancing to third on two passed balls. Another passed ball in the sixth inning allowed Collin Strade to move to third after doubling, and Schlosser followed with a gametying RBI infield single. “We made some boneheaded defensive plays,” Smith said. “We kind of shot ourselves in the foot a few different occasions to let them tie the game and eventually win the game. “That’s kind of a waste of a pretty good performance on the mound.” game against the Panthers in 2002, that signaled the end of high school baseball at what had been known as Hillis Field since September 1968. The district renovated the old JV baseball field next to the bus garage on Panther Drive and Gowanda now plays all of its home games there. When the 2008 season began, the varsity and junior varsity high school teams opened yet another new field just a few yards away that was part of a massive renovation project. And today, some 76 seasons later, Gowanda calls Panther Park their home diamond.

24 Rediscover from Page 1 The importance of shopping local will be stressed along with simply awareness for what Gowanda stores offer. Vogtli admitted many customers are quick to travel to a mall or shop on the internet for goods, not realizing a local merchant has them in store. As an example, she said one of her businesses offers tuxedo rental and had a conversation with a local resident who admitted they went to a local mall not realizing the rental could have been take care of right down the street. Plus, a local store is more apt to employ local people, putting even more money back into the local economy, said Vogtli. The idea for Rediscover Gowanda was conceived about two years ago after about 40 business owners brainstormed ideas during a meeting at the Historic Hollywood Theater. The first event, held last year, was deemed a success. The event will include sidewalk sales throughout downtown Gowanda on Friday and Saturday.

In additional to local businesses, the New York and Lake Erie Railroad will also be highlighted through train rides on Saturday. A carnival will be held both Friday and Saturday and fireworks are scheduled for Saturday night. The Hollywood Theater will be showing movies on Friday night and Saturday afternoon. Also scheduled is a wine tasting on Saturday, and a pancake breakfast and the 18th annual Crouse 5K Challenge on Sunday morning. Vogtli thanked all event sponsors, including gold sponsors of the Seneca Nation Tribal Council and Gernatt Asphalt Products, for aiding the chamber in hosting the event. But most of all, Vogtli and others at the chamber want input from residents on how they can better serve the public, increase communication between businesses and customers and what can be improved to make the hometown shopping experience even better. “I want people to be proud and shop here and, if not, tell us why and how we can improve and make it better for them,” said Vogtli. “If we don’t hear anything, we can’t change things.”

Catt. County observes Mental Health Month By Rick Miller County Reporter

OLEAN — A group of mostly Community Services employees stood outside the Cattaraugus County Office Building in Olean Monday to draw attention to Mental Health Month. Nearby, a series of hand-printed “Burma-Shave signs” urging greater awareness of mental health issues greeted visitors to the building. The group held a proclamation sent by State Sen. Catharine M. Young of Olean. Another proclamation is expected to be presented by Cattaraugus County Legislature Chairman Paula Stockman. Community Services Director Mary O’Leary was unable to attend due to an appearance in court. Acting Social Services Commissioner Tony Turano attended. Later, O’Leary, who has headed the Community Services Department for the past 1½ years, said May is the month when groups seek to make people more aware of mental health services in the county. There is a coordination between physical health and emotional health, O’Leary said. “We provide a lot of different services from the PROS (Personalized Recovery Oriented Services) in the department’s Laurens Street facility, to counseling centers in Olean, Salamanca, Machias; schools including Olean, Franklinville, Pioneer and Gowanda; the Olean Medical Group and the Council on Addiction Recovery Services (CAReS),” she said. Community Services has about 1,800 clients, O’Leary said. The Community Services Department is reaching out to use more of the community’s resources and provide community support. “We’re using more group treatment and trauma treatment,” O’Leary said. “A majority of our staff is trauma trained. We try to be preventative, too. We have a therapist at Olean Medical Group. “Mental health is about recovery,” O’Leary said. “You determine your recovery, not us.” The focus in mental health in Cattaraugus County today is to keep individuals with mental health problems in the community with necessary support. The question, O’Leary said, “Is how can you remain in your community with the least amount of support and do what you want with your life?”

HEAP from Page 16

All residents who meet eligibility requirements may apply at the HEAP office, 291 Pearl St. in Buffalo, weekdays between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. Applications may also be mailed. Residents are encouraged to call the HEAP Application Request Line at 858-1969 for an application package. Approved households will be provided with a list of qualified area contractors who are contracted with New York State to install air conditioning units. HEAP will notify the chosen vendor of program eligibility, and the vendor will coordinate the set up appointment with residents. Households that have received HEAP cooling assistance within the last 10 years, or households with a working air conditioning unit that is less than five years old are not eligible. All HEAP components are federally funded. Eligible households must have received a 2016-17 HEAP benefit or have income which does not exceed the 2016-17 maximum HEAP guidelines.

25

In addition, in order to be eligible at least one member of the household must have a medical condition — documented in writing by a physician, physician’s assistant, or nurse practitioner — that is exacerbated by extreme heat. Documentation for this medical condition must be issued within the previous 12 months and clearly state the health condition. Documentation older than twelve months may be used if it provides sufficient information to indicate that the medical condition is considered chronic. The HEAP Hotline is also available to provide information about other programs available to assist with heat and electricity costs or furnace repair when HEAP benefits are closed for the season; information on the Weatherization Assistance Program, and referrals to EmPower NY; answer questions about HEAP benefits approved during the season; and provide information about the 2016-17 HEAP season. For more information about HEAP, call the HEAP Hotline at 858-7644.

Old Times Remembered...

Buffalo Street, circa 1910 This view of Buffalo Street in Gowanda is looking north from East Main Street around 1910. Several buildings still exist, like the Plumb Block on the far right, built in 1852. Next to that is the Hotel Columbia, run by A. Gustafson, later the Hotel Iroquois, and for many years the home of Sweda’s Grille. Next door is the former Iroquois Gas Company office, most recently occupied as the Attic Place, a clothing consignment shop, and on the corner of Mechanic Street was William Dauber’s carriage shop. Across the street was Christ Stelzer’s bicycle and automobile repair shop, and beyond that was Joseph Straub’s carriage works and the 1865 Rink Building, today the Vogtli apartment house. The street was paved with bricks in 1913. The Gowanda historical museum is open Thursdays from 1 to 4 p.m. at Chestnut and Commercial streets.
