Horace Nye handover imminent

Inter-Division matchups in weekly recap PAGE 10

As New York City-based health provider Centers for Specialty Care prepares to take ownership of the Horace Nye Nursing Home from Essex County Jan. 31, county officials discussed what the endgame would be for the facility’s 130-plus staffers.

Tom Scozzafava (R-Moriah) asked County Manager Dan Palmer at the closing of the county Personnel and Administration Committee session Tuesday, Jan. 18, if employees would get preferential treatment for county jobs or if they’d start

on equal footing with other applicants.

“They will go on a preferred list when they’re laid off,” said Palmer. “If a position opens up, we’ll make our decisions based on that preferred list.”

Some of the home’s staff are being offered positions with the new owner, but some want to stay in county employment to keep their health insurance and retirement benefits.

“Are we showing any preference to Horace Nye employees if they’re qualified?” asked Scozzafava. Ò Not with CNA positions,Ó said Palmer, referring to certified nursing assistants. Ò Never.Ó

Since the county is no longer involved in the nursing home business, explained Palmer, they don’t see those employees filling positions in county-offered jobs anytime soon.

Those jobs aren’t available elsewhere, said Palmer, but senior clerk positions may become available within the year that Horace Nye staffers can apply for if they’re qualified.

“But this board can’t force the issue,” he emphatically said. Ò The department heads are the authorities and we [the board] can’t force people to be hired.”

ELIZABETHTOWN Ñ Town supervisors faced off against county officials Tuesday, Jan. 21, in an attempt to determine exactly who has ultimate responsibility over foreclosed and condemned properties within Essex County.

Supervisors complained that while the state mandates buildings or structures that code enforcement authorities deem unsafe be condemned or demolished, those costs are currently absorbed by the town and cannot be relevyed on the tax rolls.

DOT to meet on replacing Route 86 bridge WILMINGTON — The New York State Department of Transportation will host a public meeting next week to discuss the proposed replacement of the Route 86 bridge over the West Branch of the Ausable River in Wilmington, Essex County.

The meeting is scheduled for Thursday, Jan. 30, at 6 p.m. in the ski lodge of the Whiteface Mountain State Ski Center at 5021 Route 86 in Wilmington. The meeting is open to the public.

Officials from the Department of Transportation will make a project presentation from 6 p.m. until approximately 6:30 p.m., with a question-and-answer session to follow. Department officials will also be on hand to answer one-on-one questions after the meeting.

The Department is proposing to replace the aging bridge — which opened in 1935 and carries approximately 2,000 motor vehicles per day Ñ with a new structure in 2015.

If you are unable to attend the meeting, comments about the project can be made in writing to the project manager, Denise Authement, at the NYS Department of Transportation, Region 1 Design, 50 Wolf Road, Albany, N.Y. 12232. Comments may also be submitted via email to: Denise.Authement@dot.ny.gov.

WESTPORT — Even if the thermometer won’t get out of the red numbers, sometimes you need to get outdoors and explore.

However, if that exploring does not include a trip up a high peak, Champlain Area Trails, along with other town and community trail systems, offer the chance to get into nature and hike without the extreme conditions that come with higher elevation excursions. Ò The trails are great in the winter,Ó CATS Executive Director Chris Maron said. Ò When you get some good snow cover, they are excellent for cross country skiing and they are also great hiking trails because they are fairly level.”

The CATS trail system spans from Crown Point in the south to Essex in the north, and from New Russia to Westport. The goal of CATS is to create a 30-mile trail loop between Westport and Essex, extending its reach to neighbor-

ing towns and eventually connect them to trails in the Adirondacks, Vermont, and Quebec.

Maron said he enjoys winter hiking and the sights that come with it. Ò There is nothing like walking in the woods when you get a hard crust under your feet that also covers the logs so you do not have to step over them,” Maron said. “Seeing the ice formations on the creeks and in the woods is always amazing.Ó While none of the CATS trails are major expeditions, Maron said that hikers should remember to dress and prepare accordingly for the conditions. Ò You should dress in layers and have a good pair of hiking boots,” he said.

Maron said a lot of the trails have easy access points for hikers and skiers, with the biggest issue in winter being whether or not the parking areas are plowed out.

Willsboro elementary students present ‘Winnie the Pooh kids’

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com WILLSBORO — A total of 45 elementary school students at Willsboro Central School will take to the stage this weekend to tell tales of a bear in search of the ultimate honey pot.

The school will present Ò Winnie the Pooh Kids,Ó based on the A.A. Milne story that has been retold in motion pictures and more starting Friday, Jan. 31, at 7 p.m. in the school auditorium. Additional performances will take place Saturday, Feb. 1, at 7 p.m. and Sunday, Feb. 2, at 2 p.m.

Admission to the show is $5, with children under five admitted for free.

The cast consists of students in the school’s elementary grades, starting as young as PreKindergarten and going through sixth grade. Ò The elementary students have been working very hard since early December on bringing A.A. Milne’s classic story to life,” Drama Club advisor and play director Derrick Hopkins said.

“Our primary focus at the elementary level continues to focus on building a foundation of theatre: memorization, projection, enunciation, character development, and fun.”

Hopkins said the annual elementary performances are a chance to give young students the opportunity to try out and experience the stage. Ò Our students range in experience level with many experiencing theatre for the first time or jumping into a leading role for the first time,” he said. Ò The elementary musical also provides high school students the opportunity to continue to grow in their technical theatre education with emphasis on lighting and stage management. The students, and adults, are thrilled to bring you this wonderful story.”

Hayden Trow plays the title roll, while Erinn Walker plays best friend Piglet, Jayde Trow the bounc-iful Tigger, Lydia Valachovic plays the role of Pooh’s tummy, Sierra Bronson the melancholy Eeyore, Desiree Cassavaugh the motherly Kanga, Everett Cassavaugh the playful Roo, Alexis Stoker the short-fused Rabbit and Joelle Steeves the Ò wiseÓ Owl.

Willsboro Elementary students prepare for ‘Winnie the Pooh Kids.’

Willsboro chorus students wanna rock

By Keith Lobdell keith@denpubs.com

WILLSBORO Ñ They want to be Ò Juke Box Heroes,Ó and may just get their chance depending on how the vote falls.

Members of the Willsboro Central School Chorus have the chance to take to the Flynn Center stage in Burlington, Vt., with 80’s rock band Foreigner as a finalist for a contest sponsored by local radio station WIZN as part of its 30th anniversary celebration.

In order to make their rock and roll dreams come true, they have to beat out three other regional school choirs, including Plattsburgh High School, Essex, Vt. High School and Colchester, Vt. High School.

Willsboro music teacher Jennifer Moore said another teacher approached her about the contest, which had schools submit videos of their chorus singing a Foreigner song.

“I told the kids about the project and what they would have to do and then I told them who they would be performing with,Ó Moore said. Ò They had no idea who Foreigner was.Ó Thus started the educational experience, as Moore re-

viewed videos of such hits as “Cold as Ice,” “Double Vision,” and Ò I Want to Know What Love Is.Ó “They were jazzed right up,” Moore said. “We had community members that wanted to help out so we put together a rock band, learned the song and shot the video.Ó The song they chose was, Ò Juke Box Hero,Ó submitting the video through YouTube then learning that they were finalist for the contest, which will be decided by voting at the WIZN website (wizn.com) between now and 4 p.m. on Friday, Jan. 31.

“It was really fun for them and we have our fingers crossed,” Moore said. “Even if they do not get this chance, it has already been an achievement because they did the work and followed through.”

Moore said chances like this are important when it comes to arts education. Ò In these small schools, kids make up their mind about who they are and giving them these arts experiences to try out is vital,Ó she said. Ò They can take the experience or they can leave it, but at least they tried it out.Ó Along with the chance to perform with the band, Foreigner will donate $500 to the winning program as a way of saying thanks.

T

he animals at the North Country SPCA enjoyed a real treat last week with a surprise visit from the Pre-K class of Willsboro Central School! Tails were wagging wildly and a chorus of purrs could be heard throughout the building. You can view a short video of their visit on our Facebook page - sure to bring a smile to your face and brighten your day! We think there’s no better

I

found this year that putting Christmas to rest for another year has been harder for me putting the decorations away, makes me think that next year maybe not to put out so many decorations. The retail market sure bounces back quickly to flood us with items to purchase for Valentine’s and St. Patrick’s day, I guess this helps to make the winter go by so much quicker. We still are experiencing real cold weather and will welcome Spring weather any time soon.

Reminder that the Congregational Church will hold their second Coffee House event on Saturday Feb. 8, at 7 p.m. They will feature the music of the Too Tall Band. This is a group that many have enjoyed in the past so make plans to come join them. The cost is only $5 for adults and $2 for students, with refreshment are available for sale.

Another big event will be available on Sunday, Feb. 2 with the showing of the award winning movie showing the adventures of Captain Phillips experience of dealing with pirates off the coast of Somalia. This will take place at the Grange

n Sunday, Feb. 2, the film society will present Ò Captain PhillipsÓ at the Whallonsburg Grange hall at 1 p.m. This is the true Oscar nominated story of an American cargo ship that was boarded by Somali pirates and the rescue of the ship’s captain from a lifeboat where he was held by three captors. Tom Hanks plays the role of Captain Phillips. The real Captain Richard Phillips, who lives in Vermont, wrote a book about this event and he will be at the Grange to attend the screening and answer audience questions. The ticket price for this special showing is $7.50; the gambrel -roofed Grange is located in the heart of Whallonsburg on Route 22.

On Tuesday, Feb. 4, there will be a talk at the Grange as part of their new Lyceum series on the natural world of the Adirondacks.

A SUNY professor will discuss the origins of the Adirondack Mountains at 7:30 p.m.

The cost is $5 with no charge for students.

place to go on a field trip than our sparkling new shelter, where kids (and adults!) can enjoy some well-spent time visiting with our furry friends, and possibly even meet their new best friend.

Loveable Scooter, featured in the video, certainly agrees.

Our featured pet this week is the large and loveable Scooter, a 7-year-old, Labrador Retriever-mix with a handsome tawny coat and an intelligent sparkle in his big brown eyes. Scooter came to us when his person fell on hard times and could no longer care for him. Scooter has a wonderful disposition - he loves everyone he meets and would love to be your new doorman. Scooter would make a great dog for the first time dog owner; he knows the ropes and would gladly show you how to be a great and responsible dog person. Scooter gets along with other dogs as long as they respect his space. He has no problem with being around cats, and as the Willsboro Pre-K class can attest, he adores children of all ages. Scoot is just an all around good boy. Please stop by and meet this big guy.

The cost will be $7.50 for adults and $3 for children under 18. This is all made possible by the Champlain Valley Film society. A great opportunity.

Lots of excitement over the air waves about our athletes going to the Olympics. I think by the sounds it could be safer for us to watch the events safely here in our homes.

Another great event is being offered by the school’s Drama Club. They are presenting Walt Disney’s, “Winnie the Pooh Kids” on Friday, Jan. 31, at 7 p.m., Saturday, Feb. 1, at 7 p.m. and Sunday, Feb. 2, at 2 p.m. held in the school auditorium.

A

nyone who’s walked through the halls at Westport Central School over the years has probably noticed the expressive murals that decorate many of the hallway walls. Painted by students, these colorful works of art tell stories, provide information, offer lessons, andÑ not leastÑ demonstrate the strong sense of community that has always shaped the WCS experience. It’s fun and enlightening to pause and immerse yourself in them for a moment before you continue, and you carry on your journey feeling more connected than you did when you started.

If you’ve had this experience—and even if you haven’t—you won’t want to miss the next lecture at the Wadhams Free Library, Ò Mural Making as Community Building,Ó on Wednesday, Feb. 5, at 7:30 p.m. The presenters, Susan Shanley of Saratoga Springs and Linda Smyth of Port Henry, are both well-known muralists. Last spring they led a group of volunteers from around the country who went to a small fishing village in Mexico and enlisted 80 local children in creating a series of murals depicting the community’s cultural and natural history.

I’m in southern Alabama myself at the moment, where Christmas trees are still on display along with early decorations for Mardi Gras. In the United States, the observance of Mardi Gras, or Fat Tuesday, is pretty much confined to the coastal areas of Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama. For the devout, it’s the last opportunity to feast and get a little wild before the beginning of Lent, the decidedly penitential 40 days leading up to Easter. Other than Christmas, this is the biggest holiday of the year here, with elaborate parades, fancy dress balls, public misbehaving and purple, green and gold decorations all over town. Trees are festooned with strings of cheap beads, clothing is kept to a minimum and it’s the one time of the year when blacks and whites freely intermingle and ignore the social constraints that usually keep them well separated.

M

y heart goes out to all the families that lost so much during last Friday’s fire in Port Kent. Please contact the Red Cross, our very active Methodist Church, Catholic Churches, Knights of Columbus and the Elks to see what can be done for these families in their time of need. I’m very glad no one was hurt and thankful for the quick response by so many fire teams.

Lakes to Locks previews app

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com WESTPORT Ñ Those in attendance at a gathering of local chambers of commerce in Westport Jan. 23 got the chance to see a first-of-its-kind app being developed for Lakes to Locks Passages.

Janet Kennedy, Executive Director of Lakes to Locks, previewed the Passage Port mobile app for those in attendance, which included members of the Elizabethtown-Lewis, Willsboro, Essex, Moriah, Crown Point and host Westport chambers. Ò We are trying to bring together the historic and cultural values of the region with place-based tourism,Ó Kennedy said. Ò This app will link everything together and tell the story this region has to offer.”

Kennedy said the app will offer thematic itineraries and interactive features like scavenger hunts, geocaching and suggestions when a tourist is seeking a place to eat or stay while on their jour-

Janet Kennedy of Lakes to Locks Passages talks to local chamber members at the Westport Hotel and Tavern Jan. 23. ney through the Champlain basin. Ò This is designed to be consumed over a two or three day period of time so people will stay, and that is what generates the real tourism dollars,Ó Kennedy said.

Part of the programing will include audio narration that is being written by Lindsay Pontius. Ò We want something that is interactive and entertaining and Lindsay is scripting these for us,” Kennedy said. Ò This is really going to bring the experience to life.”

Kennedy said that the app will also allow those using it to dig deeper into a certain topic or theme. Ò As you get deeper into a subject, the content will become more academic,Ó she said.

The app is being designed by a firm out of Chicago, and officials are hopeful to start testing the product within the next month. Ò They have assured us that this will be ready for the spring,” Kennedy said.

keith@denpubs.com ORLANDO, Fla. — A Middlebury man has been located by police in Orlando, Fla., after he was reported missing under Ò suspiciousÓ circumstances.

The Orlando Police Department has confirmed that John Hall, who is also part owner of the Westport Country Club, has been located in the area. Hall was reported missing after he had checked into the Rosen Inn Jan. 22, when he was last seen.

MSGT Roger Brennan, Public Information Officer for the Orlando PD, confirmed that Hall had been located but did not say he had been the victim of a rumored car jacking. ”Mr. Hall was indeed located this afternoon (Sunday, Jan. 26),” Brennan said in an e-mail to the Valley News. “He did not report to law enforcement that he was the victim of a car jacking.”

Brennan added Hall was reported missing by his wife.

In a previous press release, issued Jan. 25, police had said the disappearance was under suspicious circumstances.

Common Core the wrong choice

T

he adoption of the Common Core learning standards in New York State has created a lucrative opportunity for educational publishers like Pearson Education, while leaving our children behind.

As states and schools rush to buy products aligned to the new standards, our children suffer because of a callous disregard for their educational needs.

Core-aligned tests are diminishing our children’s creativity and enthusiasm to learn while handcuffing our teachers to specific, developmentally inappropriate standards and curricular materials. Our kids don’t all develop according to a specific map; they learn by interaction through experiences that are unique to each child. They can’t be force-fed.

Our teachers are seeing a notable shift in math instruction. For example, asking an 8-year-old a math related multiple-choice question like Ò Which is a related subtraction sentence?” hardly seems like something a third grade student would understand.

English instructors have noticed a more heavy emphasis on non-fiction texts with new standards. A “Lexile” score is one of the methods used to gauge reading difficulty within the common core standards. These scores are based on how difficult texts are to read; actual content and in-depth meaning play second fiddle. The complexity of meaning in both classic literature and high-interest young adult novels has been disregarded.

Educators and parents in New York State are taking a stand against the common core and New York State Education Commissioner John King for good reason. NYSUT (New York State United Teachers) union, with 600,000 members, recently passed a resolution to remove King and withdraw support for the Common Core State Standardized testing. At the same time, our governor’s silence on this issue is beyond disappointing.

So far, the testing has proved to be nothing but offensive and ineffective to parents, students and educators alike throughout the state.

In recent months, the NYS common core website linked children to a sex quiz site, while Mr. King brushed off accusations from concerned parents and judged the common core’s popularity on the number of “hits” on the NY webpage.

The current Common Core standards are limited to English and math, but will expand to all subjects in the coming years. Instead of rolling these standards in one grade level at a time over several years, as other states have

done, New York State has implemented them for every math and English student from third to eighth grade at once.

Along with the standards and the assessments, teachers are now subjected to modules — scripted 10-week units that they are to follow in order to stay aligned to the core. Teacher artistry and creativity has been decimated, and although the commissioner may claim that the modules are not mandated, that local control of curriculum still exists, a closer look says otherwise: up to 25 percent of a grade 3-8 Math or ELA teacher’s annual evaluation is based on the grade-level state assessment, and the message at area common core trainings is that questions on the assessments will be structured like those on the modules. This is clearly a back-door mandate, and New York State teachers and students are at risk of becoming generic.

Despite thousands of teacher layoffs in an era when state education aid has been drastically reduced, NYS is hiring Ò common core coachesÓ to come into our schools to help with the transition.

Common Core can be traced back to the 2009 stimulus bill, which gave $4.35 billion to the Federal Department of Education. This created the Ò Race to the TopÓ competition between states. In order to qualify for funding, states needed to adopt Common Core. Participating states would then be exempt from many of the difficult provisions of the “No Child Left BehindÓ program.

To date, Common Core has been adopted by 45 states and the District of Columbia, but many are already jumping ship, with opposition developing in the states of Utah, California, Indiana, and Missouri among others.

The Common Core is further marred by the large corporations reaping the profits of its implementation. Pearson education executives believed the Common Core work performed by their nonprofit arm could later be sold by their for-profit organization and generate “tens of millions of dollars” for the company. They have since agreed to pay $7.5 million to avoid prosecution by the Attorney General of New York state for blurring the lines between its not for profit and for profit company.

We shouldn’t educate our kids because of the mere marketability of an educational reform, or by diluting individual choice by directing children where to go and what to learn. Stealing our educator’s creative talents in exchange for a cookie cutter education for our children is just plain unacceptable. Ñ Denton Publications Editorial Board

Disagrees with editorial

To the Valley News: “LOL!” as they say in internetease. The little front page article in the Jan. 18 issue of the Valley News immediately reminded me of the situation that many feel exists in our society today. I got a chuckle out of it. An old sailing term came to mind: “two sheets to the wind.Ó Nothing personal on Justice Dawson, whom I recall nothing of, but if he was a State Supreme Court Justice for 14 years he must have been doing something right. Errr; well, you know what I mean!

So there is this little sailor on the happy ship unbound. This little sailor could be you; he could be me. Either way he should be minding his own business rather than prodding the good captain with, Ò sir, might there not be rocky shoals out there upon this dark and disquieted sea?” For the sea is vast and there is certainly plenty of room to bob about upon it unbound. Indeed, perhaps the soiled utterance simply goes unheard, drowned out by the happy din of drink and revel.

Your writer thinks we are well along on the “circuses” part of the whole ordeal. Circuses are to be entertaining. We are, I think, if not the most doped up generations in the history of mankind, the most entertained. Perhaps it is high time we put some faith in the grandest circus man has ever known for, as well as being distantly horrifying, it is magnificent, and to raise a glass of bubbly, perhaps even half a dozen as example set forth by the good judge, and simply enjoy!

To the Valley News: The need for the services that the United Way of the Adirondack Region, Inc. helps support has never been greater. Employment, construction and tourism are down yet gas, food and utility costs are rising. Demands on public agencies, food pantries, utility funds, and free clinics are much higher than last year and from people who have never had to resort to asking for help before. State funding to public and private agencies has been slashed, at the same time that requests for assistance are increasing. United Way of the Adirondack Region, Inc. helps fill those gaps.The United Way of the Adirondack Region, Inc. has been a part of this community for over sixty years. Our main role is providing financial support to local health and human service programs throughout our 40 partner agencies. They do not just provide a blank check to these agencies; they fund specific programs with measurable outcome objectives ensuring the funds invested on your behalf are making the greatest impact on community needs.

Please pledge your support today for the United Way of the Adirondack Region.

Ellen Gordon Co-Chair of the 2014 Campaign Au Sable Forks

To the Valley News: I disagree vehemently with your editorial of Jan. 25, opposing Cuomo’s proposal to enact a law which would take away a driver ’s license for life after three DWI’s. Anyone arrested three times for driving intoxicated is probably a lifetime alcoholic, not someone who just committed two “youthful indiscretions” followed by “one more lapse of judgment” as an adult.

You say it would be Ò counterproductiveÓ to revoke someone’s license for driving “a short distance…while just a sliver over the .08 BAC limit.” Most of the drunk drivers I read about in your paper are well above that limit.

The editorial goes on to advocate a “person’s right to selfdetermination.Ó Joining an alcohol abuse program would the best exercise of that right. Killing innocent motorists and pedestrians is not a right.

You are correct: many urban areas have better public transportation. So? The editorial mentions the poor people, with two DWI’s under their belts, who might stay home from bars and restaurants, escaping the horrors of our “The Shining” winters.

I can’t imagine a greater real life horror than killing people on the highways. Stay home if you can’t drink responsibly! I don’t want you on the roads.

Two of your examples at first seem like good points but on further examination are irresponsible. If a first responder is on call, he or she should not be drunk. That’s the purpose of being on call. I don’t want a drunk emergency professional helping me. The other example is a sportsman Ò speeding a wounded buddy to a medical facility” after “an outdoors tipple.” Is that a euphemism for hunting while drunk? I’m speechless.

I’m no fan of three-strikes-you’re-out laws but this proposal is not mandating prison time. I assume the judicial system would determine the appropriate punishment. Exceptions could be written into the proposed legislation. I would argue there might be fewer people in jails for drunk driving, not more. I don’t want these people driving anymore!

What upsets me most about the editorial are the implicit statements condoning intoxication: it’s ok to drive drunk if you are suffering from cabin fever; it’s ok to hunt if you’re drunk; and it’s ok to provide emergency services if you’re drunk.

Grateful to community To the Valley News: On Jan. 3, we lost our home and all of its contents to a structure fire. While mourning the loss of everything we owned, friends and family were offering their love and support in volumes.

At this time, Howard and I wish to thank the Au Sable Forks, Jay, Upper Jay, Keeseville, and South Plattsburgh Fire Departments for fighting our house fire under the worst temperature conditions that evening. A thank you is also extended to the Wilmington Fire Department for being on stand by should further assistance be needed.

To date, we will never be able to individually thank every person, business, or organization in this letter who selflessly offered their support toward us in some manner. Please know that Howard and I will be forever grateful to the small community of Au Sable Forks as well as the surrounding communities who were there for us in our time of need.

Phillips

Continued from page 1 Ò We are pretty excited about this,Ó CVFS President Sue Reaser said. “Richard is just a down-to-earth, very nice person that people will enjoy.”

Reaser said the connection for the movie was made through Phillips’ sister-in-law, whom she is friends with. Ò I told her that we were going to be showing the movie and she said that he might come with her,Ó Reaser said. Ò Whether it was going to hap-

pen or not was just left hanging out there and then we were told that he was going to be able to make it.Ó The Feb. 2 showing is a change from the usual Saturday evening movie time, a change Reaser said they were glad to make in order to accommodate Phillips. Ò His schedule was pretty tight, and we were able to find this time that worked,Ó Reaser said, adding that the timing also accommodates those who may be planning to watch a certain football game later in the evening.

Properties

Continued from page 1 Ò How can you stay under the tax cap when you have a mandate to make something safe and the cost is absorbed by the taxpayers and the county continues to do this,Ó asked county board of supervisors chair Randy Douglas (DJay). “We’re all in the same position.”

Douglas was joined in his concern by a chorus line of supervisors each voicing concerns about decrepit properties in their individual towns.

“If we’re obligated to take something down, do the Moriah taxpayers have to pay that cost,Ó Finance Committee Chair Tom Scozzafava (RMoriah) asked county attorney Dan Manning.

“The county doesn’t want to get stuck with the bill,Ó responded Manning, repeatedly stressing that the law currently cannot allow for property to be relevyed.

Towns have the authority to pass laws to destroy unsafe buildings, explained Manning.

Both town and local laws provide that when they are torn down a lien can be placed on the property.

Want to stop development To the Valley News: The news that Greens will try to stop the NYCO land swap should show everyone the main goal of Greenism: preventing economic development. As Richard Lindzen, MIT climate scientist, puts it, “It would appear that the privileged members of the global society regard as dogma that the rest of humanity is a blight on the planet, and all effort should be devoted to preventing their economic improvement and development.Ó John Gardner Westport Phillips is a U.S. Merchant Marine and a veteran of 34 years at sea. He wrote the book ,“A Captain’s Duty: Somali Pirates, Navy SEALS and Dangerous Days at Sea,Ó about his time as captain of the unarmed Maersk Alabama cargo ship when it was boarded by Somali pirates in April of 2009.

Tickets for the event are $7.50 for adults and $3 for those under 18, and seating is limited. Ò The doors will open at noon for the show, and we will accommodate as many people as we can,Ó Reaser said.

Ò The question the board is addressing is whether they can assess that on the taxes,Ó he later said.

The county is still pondering the issue and determining a way forward.

“We’re looking the state for guidance,” Manning said.

This impasse is, in part, why so many eyesores dot the landscape, said Scozzafava, noting that while Moriah has taken several structures down, the town has eaten the cost.

“If the county owns it, and it’s in your town, then they should take care of it,” he said.

Scozzafava highlighted the Old Republic Steel office building in Mineville as another example, a property that the county has owned since the 1980s. Ò At one time, they talked about putting county offices there. Something needs to be done — it’s empty,” Scozzafava said. :Either find a use for the building or put it on the market.”

He also expressed concern over condemned structures that still have occupants residing in them, including a lot seized by the county that contains several trailers. Ò Let us know who they are,Ó said county manager Daniel Palmer, “and we’ll start the proceedings.”

Auction

An auction is currently scheduled for Wednesday, April 30, that will sell off approximately 150 county-seized properties whose property taxes haven’t been paid since 2006.

The sale will cover properties from 2006, 2007 and 2008 and a yet-to-be-determined number from 2009, said Manning. “Somewhere in the neighborhood of 60, but we’re not sure yet.Ó The biggest question mark in the upcoming sale is the former Frontier Town theme park in North Hudson. Split into 10 parcels, taxes haven’t been paid on the properties off Route 9, many of which still contain decayed and unusable recreational infrastructure, since 2006.

The exception is the Ò A-FrameÓ entrance building, said North Hudson Town Supervisor Ronald Moore. Taxes have been paid by the owner George Moore of Keeseville (no relation) and the property is currently for sale.

George Moore said he hopes to lure in private developers to transform the property. He also hasn’t ruled out purchasing the surrounding parcels from the county.

“If something’s a real good bargain, then I’ll

The county recently had to use taxpayer money to have the property surveyed to officially determine who owned what. Ò The original survey was a mess,” said Manning, referring to a study done in, Ò sometime in the

bid on it,Ó he said.

George Moore said that ideally, he and the county can work together to find a solution that appeals to both parties.

Ronald Moore is the newly-appointed chair of a task force designed to address the Frontier Town and Mineville properties. Ò For those other parcels, we need to determine what the county intends to do and how to move forward,” he said.

Ronald Moore joins fellow lawmakers Scozzafava, Roby Politi (North Elba), Stephen McNally (Minerva) on the task force alongside Manning, Palmer, county treasurer Michael Diskin, Deputy County Manager Michael Mascarenas and Essex County Real Property Tax Services Director Charli Lewis.

The first meeting is scheduled to be held on Wednesday, Jan. 29.

The county last held a tax sale in 2006 and aims to hold another this fall for the 2010, 2011 and 2012 properties, said Douglas.

Despite the death of head auctioneer Edward Haroff earlier this month, the auction will go on as planned, said Diskin.

Manning proposed a resolution to streamline the flurry of legal pa-

Only Scozzafava opposed.

“I’m opposed to the sale and have been from day one,” he said afterwards. “It’s the wrong direction for the county to take.”

Au SABLE FORKS — Before they get to Washington, D.C., they start out in their hometown venues.

For three Au Sable Forks Elementary School students, their schools’ Spelling Bee has them her one step closer to competing for the national title.

Sixth grader Alice Bickford claimed the title of AFES overall school spelling champ Jan. 21 as part of the local spelling bee.

Mylea Goodman was the fifth grade champion, while Lucas Tardif took home the title in fourth grade.

“All students in grades four five and six took a written test last week and the finalists competed in the oral bee at school,” AFES Principal Ginene Mason said. “The winners of each grade level get to participate in the Scripps Regional Spelling Bee, held on the evening of March 7 at Moriah Central School. The winner of this bee will travel all expenses paid to Washington, D.C. to participate in the Scripps National Spelling Bee.Ó The Scripps National Spelling Bee is an annual contest pitting the top spellers in the country against each other in an event that has reached almost cult-status, being broadcast annually on the ESPN family of networks.

Second place finishers at AFES included Jenna Stanley (fourth grade), Kassidy Robare (fifth) and Emily Remillard (sixth).

LAKE PLACID Ñ The Olympic Flame will again be ignited in Lake Placid.

The host of the 1932 and 1980 Winter Olympic Games will again light the cauldron located at the Lake Placid Horseshow Grounds as the latest version of the games take place in Sochi, Russia.

Organizers are planning to ignite the Olympic flame Friday, Feb. 7, in a 6 p.m. ceremony that would serve as a prelude to the televised lighting of the torch in Sochi. It will take place one day after the lighting of another cauldron, as the opening ceremonies for the Empire State Games will take place the day before on Feb. 6.

To further link the history and present of the Winter Olympics, organizers are seeking former Olympians from the region to carry the torch for a segment of the run. They are also looking for people who had served as volunteers during the 1980 Games as well as former torch runners.

After the lighting, there will be a torch run from the horse show grounds to Mid’s Park in the Village of Lake Placid, where a smaller, portable Empire State Winter Games cauldron will be lit.

Those former Olympians or games’ volunteers interested and available to take part in the torch run are asked to contact Darci LeFave at 523-9518 or email coordinator@northelba.org.
