VSP arrest Burlington cop
By Gail Callahan
HINESBURG Ñ A Burlington Police Department officer was arrested Sept. 2 by Vermont State Police on three misdemeanor charges of domestic assault. Cpl. Ethan Thibault, 37, a resident of Hinesburg, was taken into custody after meeting with state police at their Williston headquarters and lodged at the Chittenden County Correctional Center in South Burlington. He was arraigned the following day in Vermont Superior Court, where he pleaded not guilty to the charges. Thibault, who joined the Queen City force in 2001, was released on conditions, including he have no contact with the victim, undergo a mental- health evaluation and surrender his weapons. Thibault is the third Burlington Police officer arrested this year. Ò Obviously, this is a very serious case,Ó said Chittenden County StateÕ s Attorney T.J. Donovan. Thibault was involved in the fatal shooting of Wayne Burnette of Burlington nearly two years ago. Burnette, who had a history of mental illness and had interactions with law enforcement in the past, was yielding a shovel. Thibault and his partner were cleared to return to work, and an investigation cleared the two officers of any wrongdoing. ItÕ s unclear how the latest charges would impact, if at all a federal lawsuit filed by Burnette’s widow, against the two officers, former Burlington Police chief Michael Schirling, the burlington police and the City of Burlington. A spokeswoman at the U.S. Federal Courthouse said motions in the case were CONTINUED ON PAGE 7

Solar sprawl set to erase no-billboards tourism appeal By Bruce Parker Vermont Watchdog Report MONTPELIER Ñ When Ted Riehle won his crusade to end the scourge of billboards in the 1960s, the former state lawmaker helped create the Vermont brand. A Republican from South Burlington, Riehle was outraged at promotional signs going up on interstates, on the sides of barns, and along small byways. When his bill became law in 1968, it forced the removal of outdoor advertising and codified nature as the cornerstone of VermontÕ s tourism industry. Ò ItÕ s completely part of our brand. We promote the fact that we donÕ t have billboards. ItÕ s part of our aesthetic appeal,Ó Megan Smith, commissioner of the Department of Tourism and Marketing, said. Ò We put it in a lot of our PR. Anytime we can mention the fact that we donÕ t have billboards, we do.Ó According to Smith, 80 percent of Vermont is undeveloped. That unique characteristic catches the eye of tourists and creates a striking contrast with neighboring states. CONTINUED ON PAGE 12

MIDDLEBURY Ñ Hannaford Career CenterÕ s veteran instructors Doug Atwood and Jake Burnham are proud of the schoolÕ s STEM AcademyÑ so, too, are students who discover the fun and challenges of engineering design and precision machining. Atwood is an industrial design and Fabrication/STEM instructor. Burnham is an architecture and engineering systems/STEM instructor at the vocational technical school adjoining Middlebury Union High School. STEM is a relatively new acronym Ò buzzwordÓ which stands for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. And not unlike the Sputnik days of the late 1950s, the USA is once again falling behind other Western nations in science, math and engineering education. Thanks to dedicated technical teaching efforts, such as the STEM Academy program at the Hannaford Career Center, teachers are helping to local students get up-to-speed in technical skills in an ever increasing environment of international technical competitionÑ from basic science R&D and engineering to industrial manufacturing processes. Good-paying skilled jobs and AmericaÕ s future are on the line. According to instructor Jake Burnham, who has been teaching STEM-related CONTINUED ON PAGE 6

Woman charged with grand larceny MIDDLEBURY — Vermont State Police officers responded to a theft call regarding a motor vehicle that was stolen from a residence located on Route 22A in Bridport. On Aug. 31, VSP troopers arrested Chelsea Delisle, 24, of Middlebury, after an investigation was conducted. The VSP investigation revealed that Delisle sold the unnamed victimÕ s vehicle without permission. Delisle was processed at the VSP New Haven Barracks for grand larceny and was released on a citation to appear at the Addison County Court House. Note: The accompanying public-record photograph was released by the Vermont State Police to the news media. The Eagle regrets that the original VSP image was out-of-focus.

From the Editor
S
Sharing the road everal recent bicycle-automobile accidents in our area call to mind that Ò sharing the roadÓ will require more than just a nifty slogan. Setting aside the needed discussion about VermontÕ s DUI crisis for this editorialÑ a problem just as bad as our widely publicized narcotics epidemicÑ itÕ s also time for a discussion about bi-
cycles. Being both an automobile driver and a weekend bicyclist, I know the dice that I throw each and every time I climb on my bike and pedal off to cruise back roads in Addison County. I speak only for myself here, but if I was more honest about my personal safety, I would stop biking along VermontÕ s backroads and use bike paths instead. Unfortunately, because of where I live, I’d have to set off in my car—with my bike chained to a rack—to find a bike path for the purpose of having fun and exercising. On the face of it, the complete streets makeover effort, as reported in the Eagle via the Vermont Watchdog Report, may be a wonderful idea but it doesn’t come without a high cost to taxpayers. Adding even more vehicular traffic to our narrow pot-holed streets and roadsÑ even if the vehicles are non-motorizedÑ doesnÕ t strike as a solution to the problem. Regarding VermontÕ s complete streets program, Watchdog reporter Bruce Parker writes that, Ò The initiative raises public safety concerns at a time when Vermonters are coping with three tragic accidents in less than three weeks Ñ two of them fatal, and neither of them connected to a current complete-streets initiative...Ó Beyond the fact that a complete streets makeover everywhere is unlikely to happen, itÕ s a given that sober automobile operators must drive more defensively, especially on backroads filled with local and tourist bike riders. On the other hand, bikers, joggers and walkers need to be mindful and act defensively, tooÑ itÕ s hard to cavalier about large pieces of hurtling metal coming in your direction. As a responsible cyclist (at least I think I am), I know, all too well, our hazardous roadsÑ I avoid most of them now like the plague. But that fact doesnÕ t leave many options for overly cautious cyclists like me. Now on to the unpopular topic of regulating bicycles. I like what one Oregon legislator is doing regarding bicycles in the Beaver State. Earlier this year, State Sen. Brian Boquist introduced Oregon SB177 which would mandate licenses for everyone over 18 years of age who rides a bicycle. HereÕ s a shorthand version of OregonÕ s SB 177 as published on the stateÕ s legislative website: “(SB 177) requires registration of certain bicycles. Imposes $10 registration fee. Creates bicycle license. Specifies procedure for obtaining license. Imposes license fee in amount sufficient to pay administrative costs, as determined by (Oregon) Department of Transportation. Creates offense of failure to register bicycle. Punishes by maximum fine of $250. Provides exemptions. Creates offense of failure to report change of ownership or change of address to department. Punishes by maximum fine of $250. Creates offense of failure to possess bicycle license. Punishes by maximum fine of $250. Provides exemptions. Prohibits use of State Highway Fund moneys for bicycle lanes, bicycle paths and bicycle trails. Establishes Bicycle Transportation Improvement Fund. Continuously appropriates moneys in fund to department for administration of bicycle registration and licensing programs and for bicycle related transportation improvement projects. Directs department to distribute moneys in fund to counties.Ó Just like owning, renting and operating a motor vehicle, I believe we have to look at bicycling as a privilege (not a right) with serious responsibilities—yes, I think even tourists-on-bikes should show an existing auto license (or their own state bike permit) to ride here, plus pay a fee to help fund a something like a Bicycle Transportation Improvement Fund for the State of Vermont. Regardless of whether or not the Beaver StateÕ s SB177 sinks or swims, itÕ s something that our state legislators might consider, tooÑ at least while theyÕ re in the regulating, fee-raising mood.

The bizarre world of politics
U
.S. Politics is one of the biggest money businesses in the world. In so many ways the process to gain political influence has no boundaries. As citizens of this great democracy we would like to think those involved in the business of politics would look beyond petty skirmishes and foolish statements, but that, perhaps, would be expecting too much from those in control of our government and those who seek control Dan Alexander over our government. Thoughts from In the current political climate the Behind the Pressline race for the highest office in the land seems mired in contradictions. Both partyÕ s leading candidates are doing things that would have been unimaginable in prior elections. In the past a candidate wouldnÕ t think of insulting a voting block like the Hispanic population, yet the leading Republican candidate repeatedly does just that. A candidate would never rope themselves away from the press and refuse to answer questions leaving the talking heads to present their own version of the issue and chip away at the candidateÕ s credibility, yet the leading Democrat has. A candidate would never show their face in public if more than 70 percent of the public thought the best one word description for them was Ò liarÓ and the second best description was Ò distrustfulÓ . When President Obama was elected he was described as a very likeable person. So who would vote for a candidate best described as Ò arrogantÓ or Ò blowhardÓ ? The election is likely to be a referendum on the current state of the American political system. The simple fact that these candidates are still in the race is amazing alone, but to be leading the race clearly shows the nation is hungry for, not just new leadership, but a very different type of leader. The American electorate is tired of politicians who promise to serve and address the nationÕ s issues only to end up being more interested in themselves, their party and their own legacy. Childish behavior has no place in American politics nor in a serious society that seeks to uplift its people and encourage increased participation. No doubt it is still very early on in the race for president and a great deal may change before long. It could also be the media and the public are just having a good time right now with the shameless displays of rough and tumble politics. We can only hope that as time goes by the candidates get more focused and the public doesnÕ t stray too far from selecting truly capable candidates who will address the many issues now facing the country.

The sights of summer
GRAND PRIZE — Robert “Sal” Salmeri owner of Mogul’s Sports Pub presented Mark Scott and Doug Jones, of Meals on Wheels Rutland County, with a $1,000 check from the annual Mogul’s Sports Pub pork roast and charity fundraising event. Courtney Anderson, of the Southwestern Vermont Council on Aging, was also on hand in July. PLANNED FIRE STATION — Registered voters of the Town of Bristol voted July 7 to approve a $3.19 million bond to build a new fire station and purchase 9.03 acres of land located on West Street. The 11,010 square foot, two story fire station will be built on West Street, near the old Nelson Memorial Building, on 2.7 acres of a 9.03 acre site. The bond would be for 30 years.
SUMMER CAMPUS RUSH — Most area college students returned to campus in late August this summer. In the case of the College of St. Joseph, a small liberal arts institution affiliated with the Roman Catholic Church and located in Rutland, members of the class of 2015 arrived with an even more diverse student profile compared to earlier years.

LOCAL DAIRY — For more than 40 years Middlebury Beef Supply, located on U.S. Route 7 in Middlebury, has sold the complete line of Monument Farm Dairy products including whole milk, low-fat milk, skim milk, cream, half-and-half and chocolate milk. Celebrating its 85th anniversary this summer, the dairy’s milk products rank in the top 5 products sold at the store. Pictured: Store clerks Katrina Wright, Tyler LaPlant and Beth Ratcliff stand behind all Monument Farms products. Photo by Lou Varricchio
MABEL YOUNG MUSIC SCHOLARSHIP — The GFWC Orwell Fortnightly Club awarded its annual Mabel Young Music Scholarship to Orwell Village School students Olivia Almeida and Sebastian Redondo. Almeida will take piano lessons and Redondo will take French horn lessons. The scholarships were presented by Loretta Lee, member of the Orwell Fortnightly Club.
HORSE-DRAWN TRASH — Only in Vermont can you find horse-drawn, curbside trash and recycling pick-up service. Yup, for over 17 years, Pat and Cathy Palmer of Tornapple Farm in Bristol, have been picking up trash and recycling the old fashioned way. They even leave behind a few old-fashioned equine calling cards, too, but they’re quick to pick ‘em up with a pan and broom. Pictured: Trash collecting in Buttolph Acres in Middebury in June.

OUTDOOR MARKET — The Middlebury Farmers Market is back at the Marbleworks on Saturdays through Oct. 31 and on Wednesdays through Oct. 14. You can find vendor tents at the north-end parking lot of the historic shopping center. Market hours are 9 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. The market moves indoors, at the Mary Hogan School, starting in the fall. You can find everything from baked goods and organic products to meat products and eggs—and a whole lot in between—at the popular “buy local” market. Photo by Lou Varricchio
ROAD WORK — Major street-surface paving work was underway in downtown Vergennes during the final week of June. Brightly attired signal men and women from Green Mt. Flagging helped calm a few impatient truck drivers determined to get through town without delay. Main Street paving, which took place all day June 25, created traffic delays to feed some short tempers. On June 26, as paving moved off Main Street, and on to side streets such as Green Street, traffic returned to near normal with some turning still a challenge. Photo by Lou Varricchio

Bottle rockets
Continued from page 1 courses in Middlebury for the past six years, Hannaford’s STEM
www.addison-eagle.com Academy accomplishes two important thingsÑ it helps students build team spirit and cooperation skills and it instills students with all the technical aspects of the STEM design process. Early in the school year, students work in teams to design and fabricate bottle rockets made from Middlebury Redemption Center rejects and various add-ons such as steering fins and ballast. Once built, the team rockets are launched by pressurized water to compete in Ò the longest and most accurateÓ competition. Ò Students are really challenged by the bottle rocket competition,Ó Burnham said. Ò Some come to class thinking this is just ‘kid’s stuff’ until they get out on the athletic field and start launching their own rockets using bicycle pumps to pressurize the water.Ó On Tuesday morning last week, Burnham and Atwood accompanied 35 junior and senior HCC studentsÑ enrolled in Engineering Design and Precision Machining classesÑ to Tiger Athletic Field, located along Creek Road. Once on the field, the students teams assembled and began pumping up their homebuilt, water-propelled missiles to let them fly in the wild blue yonder. They also wrote down performance data for later evaluation in class. So far, according to both teachers, this yearÕ s record bottle rocket flight achieved a high ballistic arc which took it 400-feet downrange. It may not be enough to achieve low earth orbit, but Hannaford students definitely have the aerospace bug. To date, the record HCC STEM Academy bottle-rocket flight is 480 feet downrange; it was set by a student team in 2013.
Published by New Market Press, Inc. This year’s students are excellent, budding rocket scientists, but they’re dogged by that record-breaking flight. The 2013 record gives this yearÕ s set of teams a goal to surpass. Following their field work, students returned to class to discuss both their achievements and their failures. Having recorded data of each bottle-rocket launch, they then have to defend their design ideas before classmates against competing teams. Ò Before launching the rockets, students did a lot of research and development,” according to Burnham. “One of the excellent sources for this project is NASAÕ s website on bottle rockets. It can get very technical, so students are challenged in positive ways, plus they are learning new technical terms such as thrust, ballast, yaw, pitch, roll and propellentÑ they love it.Ó And who says learning isnÕ t fun?

Two-car accident in Bridport BRIDPORT — On Aug. 19, at approximately 7:53 a.m., Vermont State Police were alerted to a two-vehicle collision on Route 22A in Bridport. A trooper arrived on the scene at approximately 8:15 a.m. and met with both vehicle operators. Operator 1 was identified as Tajah Marsden, 16, of Bridport. Marsden told the trooper that prior to the collision she was travelling northbound on Route 22A at approximately 50-55 mph. Marsden said that she was drinking coffee and didnÕ t notice that the vehicle in front of her had slowed down and was making a right turn. Marsden advised she subsequently attempted to stop, but rear-ended the vehicle in front of her. The trooper subsequently spoke with operator 2, identified as Jason Barnes, 36, of Bridport. Barnes said that prior to the collision, he was slowing down to make a right turn off of Route 22A. Barnes said that it didnÕ t appear that the vehicle behind him was slowing down; MarsdenÕ s vehicle subsequently rear-ended him. Vermont State Police do not believe alcohol or drugs played a factor in the collision. Vehicle 1 sustained major damage, while vehicle 2 sustained moderate contact damage.

Solar sprawl
Continued from page 1 Ò If you drive across the border to New York or Massachusetts, it assaults your eyes as soon as you get over that border,Ó she said. Ò Just like when you come in from there and itÕ s like, Ô Boom!Õ It immediately takes the chaos out of your day. And thatÕ s what we tell people.Ó As one of four states that outlaws billboards Ñ Alaska, Maine and Hawaii being the others Ñ Vermont possesses an undisturbed natural beauty that is the trademark of its tourism marketing, and a top attraction for visitors worldwide. The state ethic even made it into Title 10 of the Vermont Statutes: Scenic resources are of great value, are distributed throughout the state, and have contributed greatly to economic development, by attracting tourists, permanent and part-time residents, and new industries and cultural facilities. The scattering of outdoor advertising

throughout the state is detrimental to the preservation of those scenic resources, and so to the economic base of the state É (10 V.S.A. Chapter 21 § 482) But an insidious new form of visual pollution is overtaking the state. Solar sprawl tied to Act 56 could wipe out thousands of acres of undisturbed land and transform Vermont from The Green Mountain State to The Solar Panel State. With Vermont set to become the nation’s first all-green-energy economy, solar projects popping up from Bennington to Barton dwarf the billboard blight of the 1960s, and could erase tourismÕ s marketing message. In addition, residents report frustration with the siting process, and are beginning to grow restless over the stateÕ s green-energy gold rush. Towns lawyering up and spending money to fight Big Solar include New Haven, Bennington and Rutland Town. Siting controversies have also cropped up in Barton, Poultney, Dummerston, Pownal and Charlotte. The number of solar arrays needed to meet the stateÕ s green-energy goals is eye-popping. According to a prominent environmentalist at Lyndon State College, transitioning to a renewables-powered economy could require new solar installations covering 90,000 acres, about 1.5 percent of the land mass of the state. Ò If you did it all with large solar farms, youÕ d be talking about something on the order of 200 or 300 large solar projects around the state. To a lot of people’s ears that sounds significant,” Benjamin Luce, associate professor of Physics and Sustainability Studies, told Vermont Watchdog. Calculating the land required to meet VermontÕ s green energy future is a challenge. Luce bases his numbers on Vermont being 90 percent renewable by 2050 — an aspirational, though non-legislated, goal espoused by many environmental groups and Gov. Peter Shumlin. According to LuceÕ s calculations, Vermont will use 10 million megawatt-hours of energy in 2050, up from 6.5 million megawatt hours consumed now. To meet 90 percent of that total energy use with solar would require 9,000 megawatts of solar generation. Since one megawatt of solar panels occupies about 10 acres of land, adding 9,000 megawatts of new solar generation means Vermont can expect 90,000 acres covered in solar panels by 2050. The state’s total land
mass is about 6 million acres. Ò ItÕ s a lot of acreage,Ó Luce said, adding that the number could be lower if panel efficiency doubles over the same period. While Vermonters are certain to be infuriated by miles and miles of solar panels, Luce said the negative impact on VermontÕ s natural landscapes can be minimized through well-planned siting. Ò If you were to take the equivalent of 200 to 300 farms’ worth of land and carefully site it, you could have a hell of a lot of solar projects that would be very much out of the way of peopleÕ s view and very thoughtfully chosen.Ó But he noted siting is sparking resistance towns. Vermonters, who generally favor renewable energy, bristle at seeing large-scale renewable projects developed in their backyard. Ò WhatÕ s driving the rising opposition to solar projects is the way itÕ s happening. Some solar developer will team up with some landowner they happen to find and then willy-nilly use the Public Service Board process to push it through,Ó Luce said. Ò So, naturally, the result is going to be badly chosen sites. É TheyÕ re grabbing at whatever comes up ad hoc and shoving it down peopleÕ s throats. The result is badly chosen sites and lots of opposition.Ó The impact on tourism could be devastating. John Kessler, chair of VermontÕ s Travel Information Council, said tourists admire Vermont’s sign policy because it enhances the experience of VermontÕ s landscapes. Ò When asked what were the things you liked the most about your vacation stay in Vermont É the response thatÕ s the most common of people surveyed is the lack of billboards and big signs,Ó Kessler said. A Vermont Travel Information Study conducted by the Economic Planning Group of Canada in 1997 found that 89 percent of respondents said Vermont policies Ò preserved the quality of the landscape.Ó Visitors who gave comments to researchers often spoke of VermontÕ s Ò truly beautiful sceneryÓ and Ò pristine natural environment.Ó With thousands of acres solar arrays ready to displace VermontÕ s farms and forests, leaders of the stateÕ s tourism outreach may have to surrender a key plank of their marketing strategy. Asked why Vermont was opposed to billboards, Smith said, Ò Our brand doesnÕ t allow for that. Our brand is all about beauty and the naturalness of our state, and the working landscape. So thatÕ s our brand, and how can you throw a bunch of ugly billboards in the middle, that thereÕ s no control over?Ó Contact Bruce Parker at bparker@watchdog.org.
