Condos tour visits Addison County

By Lou Varricchio STAFF W RITER

MIDDLEBURY | This fall, Condos is making the state rounds with his 2017 “Got Transparency?” tour. Condos has made his transparency roadshow regular happening since 2011.

Earlier this month, Condos appeared in Addison County at Ilsley Public Library in downtown Middlebury to talk with elected officials and the public about the “do’s and don’ts” of open meeting law and public records.

Vermont ’s Office of the Secretary of State is responsible for several statewide

functions including campaign and election integrity as well as riding herd over the state’s local open-government laws.

In his PowerPoint slide presentation, Condos outlined Vermont’s right to know statutes, which encompass public meetings such as select boards and zoning boards. He also explained how to access public records of interest to the press and other members of the public.

“In Vermont, town officials must (first) adopt a resolution setting the time and place for a regular meeting,” Condos said of the meeting law. “They have to post and make an agenda available 48 hours before each meeting.”

“When it comes to special meetings, they must give 24 hours’ notice to newspapers or radio stations serving the area, any person who specifically asked (about the meeting) in writing, and all members of the public body. An agenda (then) has to be posted 24 hours in advance.”

When it comes to government executive sessions, Condos indicated that many public officials need to be informed before ever shutting the door on the public and members of the press.

“Yes, there are some permissible reasons to go into executive session,” he said.

Condos said valid reasons include circumstances such as contract discussions and labor agreements with municipal

employees, arbitration and mediation, non-tax related grievances, pending civil litigation or prosecution, and confidential attorney-client communications. Otherwise, there is no justification for a closed-door meeting.

“A municipal board can meet in private when negotiating real estate purchase options,” he said. Other reasons he cited include appointing or disciplining a public officer or employee, imminent peril to public safety, and emergency response measures.

Condos recently called President Donald Trump’s executive order establishing the election commission as “a waste of tax payer money.”

Regarding public records, Condos said all government records are public records, although some of these public records are exempt from disclosure. Condos stressed again that members of the news media are just like members of the public and must treated as such.

“The public has a right to know,” he said. “Open meeting and public records laws protect our direct access to the decisions that affect us. Understanding the laws makes everyone a better citizen.”■ PICTURED LEFT: Secretary of State Jim Condos in Middlebury.

New Haven plan withdrawn

By Lou Varricchio EAGLE STA FF W RITER

NEW HAVEN | An anonymous industry source told the Eagle Nov. 13 that developers of a proposed 400-megawatt electrical power inverter facility in New Haven have withdrawn the proposal.

The original plan was to run a transmission line from New York, under Lake Champlain, to a site in New Haven near U.S. Route 7.

U.K.-owned National Grid and a Massachusetts-based Anbaric Transmission had planned to build the New Haven plant to convert wind power for use in southern New England. ■

Homeward Bound pets

The fatal accident occurred on Aug. 7 in Bridport.

A recent police report indicates that Steven Holmes, 21, the driver of the ill-fated vehicle, had a high level of the psychotropic drug tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the active ingredient in marijuana, in his body.

The report also indicated Holmes may have fallen asleep at the wheel.

The driver in the Route 22A fatality apparently had ten times Colorado’s legal limit of THC in his system.

Holmes’ passengers included Amber Brewer, 19, Justin Hendrix, 38, and Jennifer Valdez, 34; they also died in the crash.

The driver and his passengers were employees of Dreamland Amusements’ Sea Dragon ride at Field Days. Dreamland Amusements is based in Lake Tahoe, Nev. Occupants of a truck involved in the collision, Lisa Nunez and Thomas Sykes, were injured.

Vermont State Police Lt. John Flannigan, noted that the accident was an “impaired driving crash”. ■

Guest viewpoint

Marijuana, serious business A warning to Vermonters

By Dr. Karen Randall GUEST W RITER

Recently, I read a Vermont news article about your former Vermont Attorney General William Sorrell’s reaction receiving a 420 license plate.

His response, and that of others commenting online, show a disturbing lack of awareness about the very real dangers of marijuana.

For example, a sitting legislator in the “comment thread” dismissed some concerns as “nonsense.” As Vermont considers legalization during the coming year, perhaps a perspective from a Colorado physician might be helpful. I am an emergency room physician (I am also residency trained in pediatrics and family practice) working in Pueblo County, Colorado, known as the “Napa Valley of Cannabis.” I would love to show Vermonters my side of the “nonsense,” including the havoc that is being caused by high dose marijuana concentrate. I have seen young patients with myopericarditis, psychosis, suicide (attempted and some completed), drug addiction, depression, cyclic vomiting, etc.

In Pueblo County, one in three high school students uses/used marijuana in the last 30 days. One in five middle school aged students has used (and personally, I think that number will be higher.) These numbers are from the 2015 Healthy Kids survey for Pueblo County. We anticipate the new report out within the next six months.

I have seen older patients suffer acute psychosis, overdose (the oldest I have seen is 79), and have acute symptoms that mimic stroke, acute nausea and vomiting.

Our crime has gone up. Our local homeless rate has never been higher and is now three times the rate of 2013. Due to increasing violence, the Posada clinic (homeless assistance facility) had to close their current facility and have now redirected their attention to youths only.

The number of people requesting assistance with emergency housing in 2013 (pre-legalization) was about 2,500. The number of homeless individuals and families needing assistance in 2016 exceeded 7,500. Homeless camps have grown tremendously. You needn’t look far to find battered campers, tents, and makeshift housing.

The soup kitchen here has had a marked increase in the number of people they serve each day and in the number of violent occurrences.

We are doing research now, but the reality is that all the harms we know that marijuana causes (from previous studies) were done with low dose THC products. Now, increase the concentration to 80-90 milligrams for a “dab” and, as you can imagine, there has been no harm reduction. Who knows what damage this will eventually lead to?

There are numerous fraudulent claims by the marijuana industry that advertise cures from chronic pain to cancer (and just about everything in between). There is no research that shows marijuana has cured any cancer.

Some research shows marijuana may help with neuropathic pain and with cancer pain, but most patients using marijuana for pain

do not fall in those categories.

Here in Colorado, many supporters thought they were legalizing old-fashioned, low-THC “reefer,” a supposedly benign recreational drug.

The old marijuana “joints,” “blunts” etc. contained about 1-3 milligrams of THC (the psychoactive component of marijuana.) The average blunt in Colorado now contains 18-25 milligrams of THC. Now available for sale is marijuana in the form of dabs/shatter/concentrate that has THC concentrations of 80-90 milligrams (sometimes referred to on the street as “crack weed.”)

I have experienced legalized marijuana for the last three years. I am happy to have a rational, informed discussion with Vermont media and public officials. This is not nonsense. Th is is life and death. There is no amount of marijuana tax revenue to cover the social costs that are occurring here.

Finally, I lived in Detroit, Michigan for 18 years. In all that time, I never saw a swat team coming out of my neighbor’s house. The episode captured in the accompanying photo took place across the street three months ago. Does that look like nonsense? Detroit and Pueblo do have something in common: they are both listed on

the 10 worst American cities to live in.

Pot legalization in Pueblo isn’t the only problem, but it certainly hasn’t helped the way some said it would, and it definitely – from where I’m standing in the emergency room – has made things worse.

Editor’s note: The writer is a Colorado pediatrician and ER physician. She is a Fellow of the American Academy of Emergency Medicine and the Southern Colorado Emergency Medicine Associates, Pueblo, Colorado, and is Vice President of Emergency Medicine Case Management and Member of the Critical Care Committee at Parkview Hospital.

Dr. Randall has told the Eagle that “(legalizing marijuana) has been a social disaster here (in Colorado). And while everyone lauds the tax dollars, the communities are suffering. We have not really seen any tax revenue at the local/on the spot end. Police are at breaking capacity, our hospital is about 120 percent occupancy, we don’t have enough local primary or speciality care doctors, and now, Pueblo County has no shelters for the homeless. Good luck in Vermont. The marijuana industry makes a lot of money for a few people and the vast majority suffer the side effects.”■

Addison farm pioneers grazing method

By Cheryl Cesario

SPECI A L TO THE EAGLE

Lots of work and new grazing ideas at the Connor farm in Addison County. Photo provided pastures when the grass was 8 to 10 inches tall, and what they weren’t eating, they were trampling into the ground.

This resulted in a nice mat that protected the soil during wet conditions and minimized damage.

There have been challenges and frustrations, but Jonathan says, “While it is more work, it just feels right having the cows outside instead of chained up. I love seeing them outside eating grass. I think they are healthier and definitely more mobile.” ■

ADDISON | Part 2: The sporadic nature of cows going out or staying in presented some challenges with keeping the feed ration consistent and was a bit confusing for the cows trying to get used to a new routine.

With more than five inches of rain in May, it was certainly a tough way to start a new grazing endeavor. However, the farmers made good decisions and trusted their intuition to preserve pasture quality for the long term.

Throughout the summer, Jonathan Connor had to balance when to turn the cows out, trying to minimize mud issues around watering areas and gate openings. Cows were going into pastures when the grass was 8 to 10 inches tall, and what they weren’t eating, they were trampling into the ground.

This resulted in a nice mat that protected the soil during wet conditions and minimized damage.

There have been challenges and frustrations, but Jonathan says, “While it is more work, it just feels right having the cows outside instead of chained up. I love seeing them outside eating grass. I think they are healthier and definitely more mobile.”

When the pastures began to grow this past May, Jonathan and Maryann were faced with the challenge of turning 90 large Holstein cows loose from their tie-stalls. The cows had to navigate across the gutter, keep their footing going down the alleyway and get out the door. To minimize chaos, the Connors started small by turning out 27 cows, then increasing the number gradually, until the entire herd was going out to graze.

In their system, cows graze during the day only, going out after morning milking at approximately 9 a.m. and coming in around 3:30 p.m. for the evening shift. Jonathan uses single strand polywire with fiberglass posts to give the cows a new strip for each day’s grazing.

The wet weather trend that began in early May presented some challenges, as the farm is on heavy clay soil. He was holding the cows in on wet days so they wouldn’t punch up the pastures when the ground was soft. The sporadic nature of cows going out or staying in presented some challenges with keeping the feed ration consistent and was a bit confusing for the cows trying to get used to a new routine.

Mars needs women, Vermont needs taxpayers Mars may need women, at least according to the 1967 sci-fi B movie, “Mars Needs Women,” but Vermont needs more young people and middle-class families — that is, more people paying taxes and fees.

In the campy sci-fi movie, NASA decodes a desperate message from deep space: “Mars ... Needs ... Women.” It turns out the fanciful Martians in the movie have a genetic deficiency that produces only male offspring. But in the case of Vermont, the deficiency isn’t in the DNA, it’s in the state tax coffers.

With news stories about Vermont’s young people leaving the state in search of better-paying jobs, so, too, has its middle class begun to shrink.

Guest viewpoint

For example, 64 percent of Vermont’s high school grads go out of state for college, and many never return.

Between 2000 and 2010 — during the governorships of Democrat Howard Dean and Republican Jim Douglas — Vermonters between the ages of 25 and 45 declined by 30,000.

Things didn’t improve much under Democrat Gov. Peter Shumlin.

As Gov. Phil Scott awarned while lieutenant governor when his statewide “Everyday Jobs Initiative” hit the road, such losses erode the state’s tax base and scare away new businesses. (Aside: as part of his initiative, then Lt. Gov. Scott spent a day on the job as an eager advertising salesperson at the Vermont Eagle in 2011.)

I can no longer teach GUEST WRITER

I have been teaching since 1992, and this will be my last year. The reason I am leaving is that I can no longer allow myself to be subjected to the foul language and disrespect I hear in schools on a daily basis. To stay would be to go against everything I believe in.

Students no longer listen to, nor do they respect, the adults who teach them. Nor do they listen to or respect the administrators who are expected to enforce the rules that make the school climate one where students feel safe and free to learn. Today’s students have no reason to fear the consequences that might be imposed by those in a position of authority.

This is because there are few if any consequences for their behaviors in school or, it would seem, at home.

Students see this on a daily basis.

I have taught in many districts, and I have seen the same behaviors in all of them. I’ve spoken with teachers in many of the other districts throughout Vermont and am told they deal with the same problems on a daily basis. As a teacher, it is not politi-

cally correct to acknowledge this or to share this view of education.

I have spoken with students and teachers from Florida, North Carolina, California and Pennsylvania who have shared with me that their public schools are currently dealing with the same problems as well.

Sadly, this has become a problem that affects not only our society as a whole but the school environment where we are supposed to be educating students for the future.

It is no longer an environment that I wish to tolerate. It’s unhealthy and crushes the spirit. In writing this I am speaking only for myself. Others may not find the current school environment that offensive; perhaps they are younger than I am and do not find the vulgar language and disrespect I see and hear on a daily basis disgusting and demeaning.

Many teachers who are approaching retirement are just trying to hang on long enough to reach full retirement.

I can no longer be one of those. Life is too short, time is precious, and no one deserves to be subjected to this.

This is not, nor should it be, a reflection on all students. It is not. There are many students who look toward the

“Those losses [are] making Vermont less and less affordable for those who remain,” Scott said at an address last January.

During the 2016 campaign, Scott said he’d like to see Vermont’s population expand from 625,000 to 700,000 over the next decade. Is increasing the number of natives and flatlanders an attainable goal?

“This is a pretty tall order — maybe unattainable,” said Rob Roper, president of the Ethan Allen Institute, a free-market think tank. “Our state’s population is stagnant, and if we want to be able to continue paying for government services, we need to find a way to increase the number of citizens paying taxes into the treasury.” ■ - The Eagle

adults in the building to enforce the rules and change the school climate to one where they feel safe and look forward to coming to school.

However, the voices of these students cannot be heard over the disruptions caused by the many who do not desire this or who have not been raised to be understanding and respectful of others.

As parents, it is our job to prepare students for school and society. We are our child’s first teacher. From us they should be learning how they are expected to act in school, on the playgrounds, in the hallways and in the classroom.

They should not come to school believing it’s ok to hit, throw things, destroy property or swear at their teachers. Sadly, in today’s school environment this often begins in first grade. If they are doing this in first grade, then it’s their parents who have failed. It’s not politically correct to say that today, either, but it’s the truth.

It’s the parents’ job to begin the reading and writing process before their child gets to school. Parents have a responsibility to themselves, their child and to the society we all share to see to this. It’s what being

a parent is all about.

Being a parent is not an easy job; I understand this. I am a parent also. It requires patience, diligence, standing up when necessary and holding them to account when it’s called for. I am not my child’s friend; I am their parent.

Students learn from our examples.

As teachers, paraeducators, administrators and coaches, it is our job to guide and model what is acceptable behavior and to be accountable for our actions, as well as to enforce the rules when students break them.

If I used the language students freely use today in the hallways and classrooms of our schools, I would be fired before the day was out and rightly so. And yet students today are rarely if ever spoken to. Today, students really do rule the school.

The student’s handbook in all Vermont public schools states that foul language will not be tolerated.

However, it’s more than tolerated; it’s completely overlooked and so common many students do not even realize they are using it. Where do they get the idea that they can use that language with impunity? I don’t know. » Teach Cont. on pg. 5

www.addison-eagle.com

Published by New Market Press, Inc.

» Teach Cont. from pg. 4 However, when adults use that language around them, whether it be their parents, or their coaches, then why wouldn’t these students believe it’s OK to use it anywhere they want to themselves? The school cannot stop parents from using it around their children, but they can stop coaches from doing it. The same should go for anyone else employed by the school who will be teaching students. Coaches are supposed to be building character, teaching ethics, fair play, how to win and how to lose, how to respect each other and their opponents.

When coaches use the same language students are using today in school hallways and classrooms, they have forfeited any right they have to be around these students. In fact, their behavior contributes to the tension and poor learning environment that permeate our public schools today.

I recently communicated with Rebecca Holcombe, Vermont’s secretary of education on this topic. In an article in the Rutland newspaper, Ms. Holcombe commented on the low test scores in Vermont and why she felt this was happening. She has decided the state will send out teams to conduct field visits at Vermont schools to get a more complete understanding of how schools are addressing the needs of more vulnerable students.

I emailed Ms. Holcombe and expressed my concern that one of the major problems facing education in Vermont public schools was the

school climate and the learning environment.

I was surprised to get a quick response. We emailed twice before Ms. Holcombe ended our correspondence by not responding.

Response No. 1: “Dear Mr. Laramie, Thank you for taking the time to write. We actually do take the problem and responsibility for teaching students positive and appropriate social skills very seriously. We are also very concerned with students’ capacity for selfregulation and executive function (regulating their behavior and emotions and managing their learning). I agree with you that when children can’t manage their own behavior and emotions, they not only can’t do well in school and in life beyond, but they also disrupt the learning and success of others.

“Public schools serve all students who come to their doors. Children need to be taught. For some children, these schools are their best and only chance to develop the social skill set that enables them to function in civic life and the work place. I agree this is a critical priority.”

The problem is that students are not asked to manage their behaviors or manage their learning. Many behave exactly how they want or feel at the moment and still expect to be given a passing grade. This does not solve the problem, and in fact only exacerbates and compounds it. It certainly does not help them to function in civic life and the workplace.

Response No. 2: “You are correct that a safe and healthy school has a direct correla-

tion on study achievement, both academically and social/emotionally. I agree strongly with you on this priority. Thank you for reaching out. I have shared your email internally, and we will reflect on how we can better respond to your concerns.” I emailed Ms. Holcombe back a third time, but up until now she has failed to respond. She clearly did not want to consider my suggestions, though I offered to meet with her to discuss them.

She did offer up a couple of suggestions, though it’s my experience they are not based in reality, nor do they have the smallest chance of success. In AA people will tell you the program is easy but hard.

The answers to the problems that face us in Vermont public schools are the same — they are easy but hard. We are the adults.

We have to accept the responsibility that we have asked for and do what we know is right, even if it’s not easy.

School handbooks say that foul language will not be tolerated. Do we as teachers and administrators mean that, or is it just for show?

If we mean it, and we should, then we should immediately stop tolerating it. This does not mean when we hear it we say “Language” and go on about our business. This means there are consequences for using it — real consequences: suspension, detention, not restorative action. It’s called detention, and it’s meant to detain students for a reason.

Allowing students to use foul and vulgar lan-

guage without consequence or by simply saying “language,” which is not a consequence, sets the tone for the rest of the school environment. If students realize they can use any language they want with impunity, then other behaviors that were once unacceptable now become acceptable.

Today, behaviors teachers and administrators thought they would never accept have become commonplace; we have become so desensitized and shell-shocked that today any behavior can be overlooked or justified.

Substitute teachers I know have shared with me which schools in Rutland County they won’t sub in because they don’t feel safe.

Vermont public schools are at a crossroads.

The intolerable behaviors that we see today are driving more and more teachers out of education. Many teachers leave before their first five years. I know others who have left after six, 10 and 12, some in far shorter time than that.

I hope those who read this, especially teachers and taxpayers, take it seriously and begin to demand change and accountability. Please, don’t deride it as just another frustrated, burnt-out, bitter teacher. I have many fond memories of students and colleagues. Students who I am still in touch with and who I probably learned more from than they did from me and colleagues whom I still count as some of the greatest people I have ever met.

New pizzeria takes over Two Bros. Lounge MIDDLEBURY | Notte, an Italian Neapolitan-style pizzeria, will open in the former Two Brothers Lounge space in downtown Middlebury on Thursday, Nov.16.

Notte (pronounced “no·tay,” the word for “night” in Italian) will feature Italian-style appetizers, salads and brick-oven pizzas; as well as old-world wines, Italian-inspired cocktails and local craft brews.

Notte will also offer late night entertainment, carrying on the tradition of Two Brothers Lounge & Stage. » Storm Cont. from pg. 1 According to Mark Bosma, spokesman for Vermont Emergency Management, teams move from place to place at irregular intervals.

Bosma said that the Vermont Electric Cooperative team in Johnson –started last Thursday morning. A team visited Ripton in Addison County and Dover in Windham County before moving onto Marlboro and other towns.

“Vermont officials have identified more than $4.5-million in public infrastructure damage resulting from the storm,” according to Bosma. “To qualify for a declaration FEMA must verify at least $1-million in public infrastructure damage and response costs, and individual counties must show $3.68 per capita to qualify.

Those numbers include restoration costs for public utilities.”

Bosma noted that assessments were called for in Addison, Chittenden, Essex, Franklin, Grand Isle,

The idea for Notte began last winter, when Two Brothers Tavern had to build a temporary kitchen in its Lounge space to serve out of while its main kitchen was being renovated for three months.

Due to the restrictions of a basement kitchen, pizza ovens were one of the few options available to them. The plan had been to tear out the temporary kitchen after the renovations were complete, but the pizza they served was so well-received that they decided to offer it permanently.

Time to get your hands dirty

Lamoille, Orange, Orleans, Washington, and Windham counties.

“All Vermont towns that incurred costs are encouraged to report those figures to Regional Planning Commissions to ensure counties qualify,” Bosma announced.

“Once a county threshold has been confirmed in a county, those verifying damages will move on to another county, so not all towns with damage will need to be visited.”

To locate a team, contact Bosma at Vermont Emergency Management at 839-6717 or Diego Alvarado of FEMA at 617-956-7597. ■

Wendy Wilton is new farm agency head

By Lou Varricchio STA FF W RITER

MIDDLEBURY | U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Sonny Perdue announced that Rutland resident Wendy Wilton (R) will be director of the U.S. Farm Service Agency (FSA).

Wilton is serving as an appointee of President Trump.

Wilton will help implement U.S. Department of Agriculture policies in planning, organizing, and administering FSA programs in their respective states. She is also responsible for running the day-to-day activities of the state FSA office in Williston.

Wilton has served the City of Rutland, as treasurer, tax collector, and pension administrator for the past decade and also served as a state legislator on the Vermont Edu-

Notte will continue to feature a mix of live bands, DJs, Trivia and Karaoke throughout the week. These music offerings will not interfere with the dining atmosphere earlier in the evening.

Notte will be open from 5 p.m. to 1 a.m. Tuesday through Saturday. Menus and entertainment listings can be viewed on-line at nottevt.com. Take-out orders may be placed by calling 989-7351. ■

cation, Judiciary and Agriculture Standing Committee in the Vermont General Assembly.

As Congress prepares to write a new Farm Bill next year, which will involve Wilton, Vermont U.S. Rep. Peter Welch (D) convened roundtable discussions across the state to hear the priorities of Vermont’s agricultural sector.

Welch met in Middlebury last week with specialty crop farmers.

The farmers discussed growing apples, grapes, vegetables, and other crops, as well as how taxpayer funds can help them.

“My goal, ultimately, is to have an agenda that reflects what you need in order to be successful,” Welch told those in attendance at Happy Valley Orchard.

“The Farm Bill is too oriented toward the big commodities. We need to focus on local agriculture.” ■ Vermont’s new U.S. FSA director is Wendy Wilton of Rutland.

Appointed by President Trump, she and Congressman Peter Welch will be involved in the nation’s new farm bill.

Rooftop panels to serve

By Lou Varricchio STA FF W RITER

MIDDLEBURY | A new joint project will bring solar power, via 325 photovoltaic panels on the rooftop of Green Mountain Power’s Middlebury facility to 35 low-income residents of Addison County.

Last week, Green Mountain Power and SunCommon officials announced a deal to erect rooftop solar panels at GMP’s center located at 121 Cady Rd. Construction of the Middlebury project is underway.

According to GMP spokeswoman Kristin Carlson, the project is the first-of-its-kind program to help low-income households go solar in Vermont.

“Membership in the community array will be prioritized to Vermont families whose household income falls within 150 percent

of the federal poverty level, $36,900 for a family of four,” according to a GMP news release. “The program’s organizers point to ease of access as a key component. Once enrolled, ...members get seven percent off the price of power generated by the array.”

“This is an exciting program that will help ensure more Vermonters have access to transformation, as we move to a home, business and community based energy system. We are excited to work with SunCommon, a fellow Vermont B-Corp, to leverage the power of the sun from our own rooftops,” said GMP President and CEO Mary Powell.

“Low income Vermonters carry the highest energy burdens in the state and we’re glad to see that local companies are building new ways for these Vermonters to save money with clean energy,” said Ludy Biddle of Neighborworks. “This feels like a step in the right direction and we hope to see more programs focused on this population.”■

Voters approve gas easements, defeat school budget

By Lou Varricchio STA FF W RITER

MIDDLEBURY-BRISTOL | Middlebury voters approved a downtown deed of easements for Vermont Gas on parcels located behind Mr. Ups Restaurant, the municipal office building, and Ilsley Public Library, and Mill Street.

The agreements were approved by the Select board at a June 27 meeting and 12 voters petitioned the town to giving either a thumbs up or thumbs down decision on Nov. 7.

The voting item was warned on Oct. 2 although, according to several Middlebury residents the Eagle spoke with on Nov. 8, only a limited number of registered voters were aware of the warning.

Turn out was low for the Middlebury action with only 448 total ballots cast. Voting yes: 279; voting no: 168.

In Bristol, Addison Northeast Supervisory Union voters rejected a $36.6 million plan to renovate Mount Abraham Union High School Nov. 2.

“If we want a 7 to 12 school in this five-town community we have to renovate this building,” MAUHS Principal Jessica Barewicz told news reporters prior to the vote. “There are some significant risks that scare me to think about, having to close the doors if we have some significant issues that really disrupt school; that’s inevitable if we don’t do something soon.

“A remodeling of this scale comes only a couple of times a century. If we agree that Mt. Abe is in need of significant work we should act swiftly. A delay could push construction back another year resulting in potentially millions of dollars in cost increases meaning we get a lot less work done for the same amount of money.” ■

Petition o(Legal Voters of the town of Middlebury, Vermont to the Middlebury Town Select board We the undersigned legal voters of town of Middlebury, Vermont hereby petition the Select board to call at a special meeting under 24 V .S.A. §1061(2) to consider the following article: 1. Shall the legal voters of the Town of Middlebury approve the current Deed of Ease~ent agreements as approved by the Select board at their meeting on June 27, 2017 and convey three land easements (one behind one near Mr. Ups Restaurant, and one on: MillStreet) to Vermont Gas the town office and Ilsley J.tbrary, Systems?

Bobby Therrien is ‘King of the Road’ Auto racing

By Lou Varricchio STA FF W RITER

HINESBURG | Thunder Road Speedbowl honored the top performers of the 2017 racing season at the annual Banquet of Champions on Nov. 4 at the Barre Elks Club. Hundreds of drivers, crew members, and officials were in attendance to present season-long and special awards.

Huntington named to Academic Team From College News Reports MIDDLEBURY COLLEGE

MIDDLEBURY| Middlebury College women’s soccer player Alissa Huntington (San Francisco, Calif.) has been named a College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA) District I First-Team Academic All-District selection by the organization for the second-straight year.

The defender has helped the Panthers to an 11-3-2 mark this season, as they prepare to face Western Connecticut State in the opening round of the NCAA Tournament this weekend at MIT. Huntington is an environmental economics major at Middlebury, owning a 3.77 grade point average and recently earned First Team

All-NESCAC honors.

A team captain, Huntington is a key part of a Middlebury defense that has ranks second in the league in goals against average (0.54) and is tied for third in shutouts (8). She also came forward to score a goal during Middlebury’s victory at Keene State in late September, giving her five career tallies.

The fourth-year Panther will now be placed on a national ballot with the Academic All-American team slated to be released on Dec. 5. ■ Middlebury’s Alissa Huntington has been named to the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA) District I FirstTeam Academic All-District team.

Northlands collects for food shelf VERGENNES | Northlands Job Corps Center students and staff recently gave back to the community by donating canned goods and cash to a local church’s food shelf.

Northlands Job Corps Center successfully donated a total of 247 food items and $50 cash. Like many schools around the nation, teachers and staff are able to dress down on Friday’s in exchange for a small donation.

For two weeks the staff at Northlands dressed down both Thursday and Friday in exchange for two canned goods for the Vergennes Food Shelf or a cash donation.

“Many of our students and some of staff know what it’s like to go hungry,” said Acting Center Director Alicia Grangent. “A food pantry in a rural community can reach a lot of people that really need the help. It is not only the charitable thing to do, but the human thing to do. We have the ability to help make sure people don’t go hungry.”

All proceeds went to the Vergennes Food Shelf at the Vergennes Church of Christ. ■ The staff at Northlands dressed down both Thursday and Friday in exchange for two canned goods for the Vergennes Food Shelf or a cash donation.

Climate economy meeting, Nov. 16 From Staff & News Reports THE EAGLE

MIDDLEBURY | Citizens of Middlebury and surrounding towns gathered on Oct. 26 as part of the Greater Middlebury Climate Economy Initiative to prioritize action ideas that will guide the work of the program moving forward.

On Nov. 16, at 6:30 p.m., at Middlebury Union High School each task force will be joined by a visiting resource team of experts to develop action plans and identify resources that will help to move these plans forward.

There will also be a discussion about developing an overarching vision to guide the process moving forward.

All in the Middlebury area are invited to attend. Feel free to sign up for a Task Force by e-mailing Jon Copans at jon@vtrural.org.

The four focus areas and task forces are: Advance public transportation, facilitate more ridesharing, and make Middlebury and surrounding towns the best possible place for biking and walking. The Middlebury area is wellpositioned to develop a transportation system

that provides great, affordable, healthy and low-impact options for community members and visitors alike. There is already a leading rural public transit system thanks to ACTR, and great options for biking and walking in and around Middlebury. And yet ownership of multiple personal or family vehicles and singleperson trips remain both normal, necessary and a significant financial burden for many people in Addison County. Ridesharing represents an emerging strategy to increase options and reduce vehicles on the road. There are also innovative opportunities to increase transit ridership and to improve options to provide better service to individuals, businesses, and institutions.

A more comprehensive transportation system coupled with parking on the outskirts of town could reduce the need for parking downtown and elsewhere. Working closely with partners including ACTR, this Task Force could do a holistic review of the transportation system in and around Middlebury. The Committee can then develop and implement a plan for transportation systems improvements including improved public transit options, better infrastructure and systems to support biking and walking, and increasing ridesharing options and participation. Large employers including Middlebury

College and Porter Hospital could all have a role in moving this conversation forward.

Increase staff capacity at the local and regional level to coordinate climate change and energy related actions. Implementing a successful climate-change agenda requires coordination among communities and staff resources to fully realize the potential of volunteer committees and neighborhood-based action. This Task Force can engage local citizens, select boards, the regional planning commission and other possible partners in a dialogue with the goal of increasing and deploying resources to implement climate-related programs.

Help farmers transition to organic and regenerative practices. Transitioning from conventional farm practices to organic and regenerative practices can have a positive impact on the environment and a farmer’s bottom line. This Task Force will convene to develop incentives and other approaches to encourage an increase in organic farming and carbon sequestration in Addison County.

Advance Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy Opportunities for Homes, Businesses and Other Buildings. Middlebury already is a statewide leader in community-based efforts

to encourage residential and business energy efficiency. A Task Force will take these efforts to the next level by working to significantly improve energy efficiency and renewable energy opportunities for homes, businesses, and other buildings. The Task Force will work with work with utilities and other partners to expedite the pace of Middlebury’s transformation to an efficiency and renewable energy-based economy. The goal will be to implement solutions that address the complex set of barriers to more widespread adoption.

“Those who gathered at the American Legion last Thursday evening came ready to grapple with big questions. There was deep and open dialogue about how the Climate Economy Initiative can have the greatest positive impact locally in creating economic opportunities and addressing challenges for those in the community while also establishing the Middlebury area as a model for other places,” noted Jon Copans, Program Director of the Climate Economy Model Communities Program (CEMCP). “Each of these four Task Forces now has important and exciting work to do - developing and implementing action plans that will turn these great ideas into practical community-based solutions.” ■
