VTrans seeks federal permit for Bristol bridge project
Vergennes businessman Brett Ward receives an award after being honored by the VUHS Commodore Booster Club.
By Lou Varricchio lou@addison-eagle.com BRISTOL — The Vermont Agency of Transportation is seeking a permit from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to move ahead with proposed bridge work along Route 116 in Bristol. The proposed project will replace two deficient bridges beginning this year. VTrans proposes to place fill material in the New Haven River, an unnamed tributary, and adjacent wetlands relating to the two Route 116 deficient bridges. The existing pony truss of the Route 116 Bridge 8 (a 100-foot span) will be replaced with a new two-span 361-foot steel girder bridge. Bridge 7, which spans an unnamed tributary 180 feet to the
east of the New Haven River, will be removed and the crossing added to the second span of Bridge 8. The new elevation of Bridge 8 will be 15 feet higher than the old bridge. VTrans officials said the project will minimize impacts from future flood events. Traffic during construction will be detoured to a temporary bridge on the downstream side of Bridge 8. The proposed work will involve the temporary placement of fill material in about 19,480 square feet of wetland and 5,440 square feet of stream bottom, and the permanent placement of fill material in about 16,544 square feet and 4,675 square feet of the stream bottom. The application for the federal permit was filed with the Corps of Engineers in compliance with Section 404 of the Clean Water Act.

Business Development Fund The Middlebury Business Development Fund Initiative, with working group representatives Donna Donahue and Jim Robinson, presented an overview of the fund proposal including operating principals, with oversight role of the Select Board and the use of funds, and business development director mission, activities and metrics. All money received by the fund will go into a separate fund, called the Middlebury Business Development Fund that will be controlled by the Town of Middlebury. An advisory board appointed by the Select Board will make recommendations as to how the money will be spent. The working group recommended hiring a business development director. Sources of money for the fund will include $72,000 from the town, with a one-cent tax that must be approved by voters on Town Meeting Day, $72,000 from Middlebury College, and between $31,000 and $56,000 from area businesses and private investors. There are two articles on the Town Meeting Day Warning pertaining to the Business Development Fund, one to establish the fund, the second to raise one cent on the tax rate annually for the next five years. These articles will be voted from the floor at Town Meeting on Monday, March 5. There will be a public information meeting on the Middlebury Business Fund on Thursday, Feb. 9. at 7 p.m. at the Ilsley Public Library's Community Meeting Room.
Town audit Independent CPA Thomas Telling reported to the Select Board on the "clean" audit of the town's finances for Fiscal Year 2011, which ended June 30, 2011.

General Fund Budget finalized for Town Meeting The Select Board approved the General Fund budget for the warning for Town Meeting after increasing the amount included for the Parent Child Center by $3,185 (the first increase in over 20 years) and applying more of the Fund Balance to offset expenses in FY13 in order to maintain the same estimated tax rate as in the current fiscal year FY12, $.8175, resulting in a proposed General Fund Budget of $8,420,920 with $5,819,322 to be raised in taxes. The proposed budget is available on the Town's website, www.middlebury.govoffice.com. Copies of budget documents are also available upon request at the Town Offices or by calling 802-388-8100, exten-
sion 201.
Warning for Town Meeting In addition to the General Fund budget article, authorization of equipment fund purchases and establishment of the Middlebury Business Development Fund, designation of a Property Assessed Clean Energy District, and Australian ballot voting on financing for the expansion and renovation of Fire Station 1 on Seymour Street—and the construction of a new fire station to replace the existing Fire Station 2—will also be on the Warning. The Warning was posted for Citizens' Petitions on Jan. 26.

McCullough Turnpike: Vermont’s long and winding road By Lou Varricchio

37416
BRISTOL – If you’re a northbound motorist on state Route 116 in Addison County and wish to head east for other Vermont destinations such as Waitsfield or Stowe, or even Montpelier, today’s Route 17 is the shortest distance between geographic points. The highway is an exhilarating passage over the steep Green Mountain front. Along the way, the driver passes through forestland, meadows, and even a moose-frequented bog— while skirting a few steep cliffs with glimpses of deep ravines and roaring brooks below. Climbing up the mountain face from Bristol, turning northeast off of Route 116, two-lane Route 17 rises to Appalachian Gap then descends, in a series of switchbacks, to Mad River Glen and on to Route 100 in Waitsfield. The 12-mile-long or so route over mountain terrain is a thrill to navigate in summer and autumn, less so during the winter months. Originally called the McCullough Turnpike, the road was started in 1933 during the height of the Great Depression. At that time, Vermont State Forester Perry Merrill enlisted unemployed Vermont men through the U.S. Civilian Conservation Corps. He spearheaded a project that began hewing a roadway out of the Green Mountain wilderness. It would take 25 years before the road was completed over the mountains. The original leg of the turnpike started on the eastern slope of the mountain in 1933. The first phase of the plan was to connect Route 100 with the Mad River Glen ski area to help promote the local economy. But it took longer than imagined to run the dirt route over the ridge via Appalachian Gap—the narrow pass between the Champlain and Mad River valleys—and down slope to the Bristol area. Work on the road was completed by 1958. For those old enough to remember, at least in the days before the turnpike was paved, the route was muddy in the spring and a slip-andslide adventure in winter, at least until the road closed for the winter. Later, asphalt paving made the highway easier to maintain and keep clear of ice and snow. Still, it’s no small task to keep Route 17 open during Vermont’s long winter nap; warning signs to drivers about winter driving hazards are aplenty. But it’s really the hardworking highway crews that deserve all thanks for keeping the two valleys connected for nearly half the year—rain, sleet, snow or shine. Today, “App Gap”, as it’s popularly known, provides both a vital transportation link and a microwave communication link between two very different sides of the state. The gap also attracts R.V. tourists, leafpeepers, and motorcyclists during the fairer months for the sterling view. From the top of the gap, the high peaks of the Adirondacks stand like a distant wall on the western horizon. Commuters make up a good part of the travelers on Route 17 today as is evident by busy carpool parking lots on both sides of the gap.

Vermont’s legal bungee jumping F
February 4, 2012
www.addison-eagle.com
rom the editor: Vermont taxpayers just witnessed a multi-million dollar effort fail miserably in a U.S. District Court in Brattleboro Jan. 20. This failure was an in-your-face attempt—mounted by Gov. Peter Shumlin (D), Montpelier ’s anti-nuclear legislative majority, and Atty. Gen. William Sorrell (D)—to override the U.S. Atomic Energy Act by shutting down the Vermont Yankee Nuclear Power Plant, the major supplier of affordable electricity in the state. Since Jan. 20, when U.S. District Judge J. Garvin Murtha threw out the state’s case, several editorial writers across the state have begun to raise doubts about Sorrell’s legal skill. Montpelier ’s legal eagle is beginning to look like Miguel de Cervantes’ memorable Don Quixote. Remember when our attorney general—a Howard Dean-era icon who has been steadily reelected since 1997—attempted to change our state’s campaignfinance law by recalibrating the contribution limits? The case went all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court in Washington, D.C., and was summarily dismissed as so much tilting-at-windmills. The effort cost Vermont taxpayers millions. Next, we witnessed Mr. Sorrell going after the big, bad drug companies— whose costly products, thanks to years of R&D, save thousands of lives everyday. Here the idea was to restrict drug manufacturers’ ability to collect data to better understand how doctors prescribe medications in the state. The Vermont Supreme Court threw out this case, citing it as unconstitutional—an attempt to selectively restrict the freedom of one industry over another, Again, taxpayers picked up the multi-million dollar legal
tab. And strike three for Sorrell came Jan. 20 in Brattleboro. Judge Murtha ruled that little ol’ Vermont had no business telling the U.S. Government what to do with an atomic plant, aging or otherwise. Looks like Vermont forget that there’s a federal agency already in place—the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. So, what’s the result of all this legal bungee jumping? The State of Vermont is beginning to resemble, well, the flatlander ’s stereotypical image of a cranky Vermonter. Love ‘em or hate ‘em, everyone learns to steer clear of such folks when they start walking across the neighboring field to tell you your business and how things are supposed to be. A law instructor at the Vermont Law School told news reporters last week that the state’s legal eagles have acquired the dubious reputation of “not having their act together.” Apparently, VLS Professor Patrick Partenteau is no friend of nuclear power, so his comments about Sorrell must really sting. Partenteau was a former commissioner of state environmental matters. Considering all the millions (rumored to be as much as $81 million) the State of Vermont forced Entergy, the owner of Vermont Yankee, to pay in legal fees in the nuclear case, I wouldn’t be a bit surprised to see my electric bill go up. Thus, I can hardly blame Entergy to do what businesses need to do—pass along the stratospheric costs that government laws and lawsuits extract from private enterprise. Lou Varricchio

I just don’t know I don’t know when I’ll die.
I don’t know if comedy helps people. I don’t know if the United States Postal Service will be out of business in the next decade. I don’t know if the rate my hair is thinning has ebbed, or if it will continue at the same rate, or gain momentum. I don’t know if there were three wise men, or just two, or maybe four, or none. I don’t know if Mary gave birth to a baby and named him Jesus and he’s the Son of God and whosoever believes in him shall have eternal life. I don’t know how many artificial sugary foods I can eat before I become diabetic. I don’t know if Obama Care will be better then what we’ve had. I don’t know if religion is the cause of all wars. I don’t know if my cat misses me when I’m away. I don’t know if my cat would care if I died. I don’t know which of my core of five friends will die first. I don’t know which of my core of five friends will die last. I don’t know if I want to be the first or last of my core of 5 friends to die. I don’t know how much I should care about money. I don’t know how much of a nest egg I should have to take me through the end of my life. I don’t know if you starve a cold and feed a fever. I don’t know if Steve Jobs really was kind of a dork. I don’t know when my end-of-life period, the period when death is staring you in the face and there’s no turning back, will begin. I don’t know how many eight ounces glasses of water one should drink.
I don’t know if you’re still reading this. I don’t know if folks who think rich people should be taxed more realize that someone whose annual earned income is $300,000 pays $105,000 in taxes. I don’t know if those who think rich people should be taxed more would think that if their yearly earned income was $300,000 a year. I don’t know if women I’ve been with enjoyed it. I don’t know if I have cancer. I don’t know how to download ringtones on my iPhone. I don’t know if I really shouldn’t top off my gas tank. I don’t know if I should do what’s best for me. I don’t know if the fat from avocado is really good fat. If computers were around when Ernest Hemmingway was around would he still write longhand? I don’t know. I don’t know if I should sell all of my Green Mountain Coffee Roasters stock. I don’t know if I should have stock, or just buy a bunch of stuff. I don’t know if “mix ingredients” in a recipe means by hand or with an electric mixer? I don’t know why the f-word is such a no-no thing to say. I don’t know if independent movies are more important than blockbusters. I don’t know anything. I just have strong hunches.

Going bare while staying covered A t last count, 26 states had legislatively expressed their disapproval of the mandate-to-purchasehealth-insurance in the 2010 Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. By Presidential state-count, that left 31 presumably approving, and by more-geographically-skilled opponents of PPACA, 24 approving. Several courts have declared the mandate unconstitutional (SCOTUS will soon decide) and most politicians of classic-liberal mind-set (in today’s language, they’re called “conservatives”) argue that requiring health-insurance purchase is a violation of personal liberty. It’s not a new question: before the American Revolution, Benjamin Franklin’s Philadelphia, with no governmentfurnished fire-fighter service, had sprouted a number of private companies on call to member/subscriber/premium-payers only. If their medallion was visible near your front door when they arrived, they’d extinguish the flames for you; if not, they wouldn’t. Modern equivalent of 18th century Philly firefighting enterprises: it went just so in exurban Nashville, Tenn., last year, when a non-subscriber ’s house was left to burn. The owner had calculated the risk-versus-savings in “going bare” (a little insurance lingo, there) and lost his gamble. Presumably, had he suffered a heart attack after dinner, the rescue squad would have prevented him from assuming room temperature, subscriber or not. It’s called the freeloader phenomenon, and it’s at the heart (no pun intended) of the consumer mandate problem. Yes, there’s a tradition that you don’t get what you haven’t paid for –think the “I paid for this microphone” Reagan-campaign line a few years back (actually, it was first the Spencer Tracy line in the politics/principle/romance 1948 movie, “State of the Union”), but emergency rooms, by law, are forbidden to turn non-payers away, and so, while you can’t buy auto insurance (and service) after
the wreck, you can get health care with neither insurance nor a pledge-to-pay, because citizens dying on sidewalks as they did (and do) in medieval London or modern Calcutta aren’t acceptable in modern Paris or New York. Those who us who argue that one should be free to decline insurance coverage (no mandate-to-buy) with the understanding that he has declined any future free-loader status as well, have no answer to the probability that he won’t pay and then he won’t decline, either. The Ethan Allen Institute proposal opposing mandates, but requiring the guy on the gurney to sign a deductionfrom-future-income agreement before the medics move in is one approach. Of course, he could sign, and then have no income from which to pay, by intent or otherwise. All of which makes a strong argument for the logic of a mandate. Ideological first. In fairly recent years, SCOTUS has twice approved the power of government to regulate intraState commerce on the grounds that it might have been interstate: wheat in 1942 and marijuana in 2005, both decisions drawing down ridicule from both left and right, so it’s been easy for critics of the insurance-purchase mandate to declare it similarly a beyond-the-Constitution reach; thus the 26 states supporting a strengthening of the Tenth Amendment (States’ rights) principle and applying that limits-on-Federal-power principle to oppose the mandate. Critics like the Cato Institute point to a weakness — deliberately, Cato argues — built into PPACA permitting anyone to delay buying insurance until after he’s gotten sick, and then to pay only his premium and not his full costs-of-service, to justify their antimandate position. This is off-point and unpersuasive. Freeloaders can still go bare and stay covered. Former Vermonter Martin Harris lives in Tennessee.

Latter Day Saints churches merge in Westport, N.Y. and Middlebury By Lou Varricchio MIDDLEBURY – The Westport, N.Y., Branch and the Middlebury, Vt., Branch of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints have merged to form the Middlebury Ward, according to Bishop Brandon Hicks of Ferrisburgh. “The decision to combine the branches, in effect closing Westport, was made by Stake President Bret Weekes after consulting with stake leaders and the General Authorities of the Church. This was not a process that just happened overnight, and there was a lot of prayer that went into the decision,” church member Keith Lobdell said. The Westport Branch was created from the Middlebury Branch in 1983. The current LDS chapel in Westport was constructed in 1987. The Westport Branch was originally led by President Harry Sherman of Westport, with other branch presidents including Michael Reznik, then of Crown Point, the late Ross Carson, Daniel Rice of Crown Point, Mark Kubricky, the of Ticonderoga, Ralph Miller of Vergennes, Fred Provoncha of Ticonderoga, and Curtis McMillion of Rutland. According to Lobdell, “Any move we make in the church, we feel that there is a level of inspiration that comes with that move. I feel that this move was an inspired one, even though it leads to a lot of personal sacrifice for members who lived in Westport or even further north or west. Lobdell said the Westport Branch has 100 members that will be affected by the merger. The official announcement of the merger was made at a special meeting of the two branches in Middlebury recently.
Ferrisburgh receives Arts Council grant By Silas Towler
silastowler@comcast.net FERRISBURGH — The Town of Ferrisburgh is among the nine Vermont institutions which received cultural facilities grants in a ceremony at the Vermont State House last week. The town received a grant of $5,500 to support the purchase of operable curtains, with valences, for the four large windows in the community center portion of the Ferrisburgh Town Offices and Community Center building also known as the Ferrisburgh the Grange Hall. With its tall wood-paneled ceilings and hard maple floors, the center space has issues with sound reverberation. The space is used for town functions, for the meetings of Grange Chapter 539, and it can be rented for various uses such as weddings, parties, meetings, and classes. A committee of representatives of the town and the Grange 539 studied the sound issue and arrived at the curtains as the best solution. The Vermont Cultural Facilities Grant Program funds a variety of projects that improve existing cultural facilities and expand their capacity to provide cultural activities in their communities. More than 100 Vermont organizations have been funded in the past eight years alone. The program is funded by taxpayers.
State Rep. Diane Lanpher (D), on behalf of the Town of Ferrisburgh, accepts a grant award from Alex Aldrich, executive director of the Arts Council in the State House last week.

19th century politician returns to Montpelier By Lou Varricchio MONTPELIER – If you lived in Vermont during the mid to late 1800s, you’d sure recognize the name of Justin Morrill. Bigger than life, Morrill was a Vermont state representative between 1855 and 1867 and a state senator between 1867 and 1898). He was a farmer, polymath, and a registered Republican. That was back in the days when the Green Mountain State was synonymous with the Grand Old Party and a Vermont Republican didn’t have to hide in the closet for fear of being exposed. Regardless of your politics, you can enjoy the wise and thoughtful Morrill who will come back to life—well, sort of—at the Vermont State House in Montpelier Thursday, Feb. 8, at 7:30 p.m. His wife, Ruth, will join him. The event is free. The public is invited to see a part of the state’s homespun political and entertainment heritage through a recreated Vermont Farmers Night. “Vermont’s Farmers’ Night series began in 1923, long before the interstate was built, when many legislators lived in Montpelier during the session and organized mid-week entertainment for themselves,” according to Julie Nelson of the Vermont Historical Society. Nelson said next week’s event involves the Vermont Historical Society teaming up with the Justin Morrill Homestead in Strafford to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the Morrill Land-
Vermonter and local statesman Justin Morrill of the 1800s will come back to speak his mind at the state house in Montpelier Feb. 8. Curt Albee, who plays the resurrected Morrill, will be joined by fellow actor Amy Sholk as wife Ruth Morrill. Musicians Susan Reid and Leeds Brewer will provide period folksongs. Grant Colleges Act and present an evening with the senator and his wife. Justin Morrill, portrayed by Kurt Albee, and Ruth Morrill, portrayed by Amy Sholk, will entertain the au-
dience with the storyline from chapters in Morrill’s life. “He was well educated in American architecture, horticulture, education, and the Republican Party,” Nelson
said. The upcoming event will be highlighted with music from the 1800s that will be performed and arranged by Susan Reid.
Ken Goodrich, Amy Johnston, and Jim Burt pose at the Robinson Elementary School in Starksboro. Members of Libanus Lodge 47 F. & A.

The Lake Champlain Bridge Community is looking forward to hosting the Grand Celebration on May 19-20, 2012. The events schedule is getting firmed up and you can see a tentative outline of it on LCBC’s website at www.champlainbridgecommunity.org/events.html. We draw inspiration from the 1929 opening and are hoping to create an event just as grand. Over the course of two days, the celebration will include a grand parade, fireworks, boat flotilla, Sunday morning ecumenical service, and street concert/dance. In between these marquee events, there will be family-friendly activities and performances that will only enhance the celebration. Showcasing the products and services of our region is an important element to the event’s success and also provides an incredible marketing opportunity. We anticipate attendance in the thousands and envision this as a chance for local businesses and organizations to capture new customers, generate additional revenue, and most importantly, encourage visitors to return to our area. The Vermont Department of Tourism and Marketing is supporting the event with press releases, Tweets, Facebook posts and more. There are many opportunities for your business to get involved:

MIDDLEBURY — The U.S. Department of Energy announced that Middlebury College has been selected to participate in Solar Decathlon 2013, a competition in which 20 collegiate teams from around the world design, build and operate solar-powered houses. The announcement comes on the heels of Team Middlebury’s fourth place finish in Solar Decathlon 2011 last fall. Another Vermont school, Norwich University, will also take part in the 2013 competition. Late last spring, when the 2011 team was working around the clock to install windows, craft furniture, and mount solar panels, a group of students convened to discuss the possibilities for 2013. “After Middlebury’s success in the 2011 competition, the excitement on campus was palpable,” said student Charlie Cotton. “While the team was reassembling the house on its final campus site, we wanted to seize the momentum and our newfound experi-

ence to make another contribution to the green building movement.” The result is In-Fill Home, a home that will adapt and evolve to inspire healthy, resourceful living on underutilized, neglected city properties. As the name suggests, the home will fill in leftover urban spaces. Another Middlebury student, Erik Fendik, explained, “The In-Fill Home does not try to reinvent the wheel. Rather, it offers an alternative approach to the widely discussed issue of suburban sprawl and strives to acknowledge the complexity of social, environmental and economic sustainability.” More than 80 students have already pledged to join the nearly two-year effort. The Solar Decathlon first occurred in 2002, with biennial competitions in 2005, 2007, 2009 and 2011.

Fish and Wildlife recognizes contest winners ESSEX – Vermont Lt. Gov. Phil Scott and Fish and Wildlife Commissioner Patrick Berry recognized the winners of Vermont’s 2011 Youth Hunting Memories Contest at the Yankee Classic Sportsman’s Show in Essex Junction Jan. 21. “The Youth Hunting Memories Contest showcases the achievements of Vermont’s youth hunters,” said Berry. “In addition to the three young people who received awards, we had 70 youths who submitted wonderful essays capturing their thoughts, passions and experiences about hunting in Vermont. Perhaps most striking is the importance our kids placed on family, friends and having fun outdoors.” Each winner received a Beagle Outdoor Wear fanny pack, binoculars, a compass and several Fish and Wildlife Department publications, including the 2012 Calendar. All contest winners and their family members also received complimentary passes to the show, courtesy of the Yankee Sportsman’s Classic. The Youth Hunting Memories Essay Contest is a joint partnership between the Vermont Fish and Wildlife Department and the University of Vermont Extension System. All of the essays can be read on the Vermont Fish and Wildlife Department’s youth page. Go to www.vtfishandwildlife.com, then to Youth Hunting under Hunting & Trapping, and click on the Youth Memories Scrapbook link. Contest winners were Colby Fox , 9, of Wallingford, Jacob Crawford ,11, of Jericho,and Trevor Houle , 14, of Brattleboro.
