Flu outbreak to blame for record absences

Warrensburg cuts own salaries, County vows to sue state freezes pay for elected officials over unfunded mandates Concerts, summer recreation staff cut

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — The Warrensburg town board members froze the pay of the town’s top elected officials and cut their own pay by 16 percent as they cited the financial hardships taxpayers are enduring and the need to keep taxes as low as possible.

REAL ESTATE

The moves, which save a total of $10,000 annually, were taken Monday amid emotionallycharged discussion as the board crafted a preliminary 2010 budget.

The salary to serve on town council was reduced from $5,300 to $4,444 per year.

The board decided to eliminate a planned 3.5 percent raise for the town Highway Superintendent, two town justices, and the Town Clerk. The town Water Superintendent and Public Works chief,

WARRENSBURG — In light of a new state ban on municipal brush burning, the Warrensburg Town Board decided Monday to immediately stop accepting brush at the town landfill.

Landfill employee Wendell Beadnell said the town was getting inundated with brush, which it couldn’t burn since Oct. 14 when a change in policy by the state Department of Environmental Conservation took effect.

Board members discussed continuing to accept brush — chipping or grinding it into mulch, which could be sold for several dollars a bag.

But Beadnell warned them that a tub grinder, which would process the brush, would not only cost the town $500,000, but it would be expensive to maintain, run and repair.

He said that with other towns now not accepting brush, there might be huge amounts deposited at Warrensburg’s landfill.

“This could be a nightmare,” Beadnell said.

Geraghty noted that town officials across upstate New York were upset over the ban, and were urging the state to go back to their old policy. He said the brush burn ban, which excluded permitted individuals, would keep firefighters busy responding to reports of smoke conditions, if not actual brush fires.

Geraghty reported that stockpiling brush for weeks, then hiring a mulcher and operator to process it, would cost the town $2,500 per day.

He said that town officials would be looking into grant

ENDANGERED SPECIES: Burn barrels are now illegal throughout the state, according to new rules put forth by the state Department of Environmental Conservation. While many laud the move to prohibit burning of trash — which routinely releases carcinogens into the air — local residents are angry about other burn restrictions the DEC has now imposed. Municipalities can no longer burn brush, while citizens can with a permit. Local government officials are concerned about not only the new lack of destinations for brush, but the possible proliferation of uncontrolled fires due to the policy change.

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — In the Adirondack Council’s annual State of the Park report — which presents the organization’s opinions on elected officials, issues and agencies prior to the general election — the environmental group praised the Adirondack Park Agency and some state officials.

And the Council didn’t hesitate to air some criticism of a few local state representatives.

Adirondack Council Executive Director Brian Houseal explained that although the highly influential organization didn’t approve of Governor David Paterson’s attempt to cap tax payments on state own land, he got a few things right.

“Governor Paterson received praise for his recent proposal to curb carbon dioxide emissions,” Houseal said. “He also won praise for making solid appointments to the Adirondack Park Agency and U.S. Senate and for signing the new Bigger Better Bottle Bill.”

The council also blasts Paterson for taking $50 million from the Environmental Protection Fund and using it towards general-fund deficits.

The reports lauds the state Assembly and Senate for rejecting Paterson’s tax cap proposal, although the state Sen-

ate received a “thumbs down” for its near collapse last summer following the widely publicized coup.

The council overwhelmingly applauded the Adirondack Park Agency’s job over the last year, stating that APA Board Chairman Curt Stiles has made the agency more transparent and accessible.

It also praised the three proposed APA legislative measures as well as the reclassification of Lows Lake and revised shoreline setback regulations.

But not everyone received praise.

The Council’s report ripped local Assemblywoman Teresa Sayward for introducing three pieces legislation designed respectively to open up some wild forests to timber harvesting, prevent the state from abandoning and closing some local roads and a measure to relax building density regulations for in-park campgrounds.

All three bills failed in committee.

The issue of All-terrain vehicle access is of particular interest to the Adirondack Council in the report.

The organization blasts the Lewis County Legislature for attempting to open several local roads to ATV access.

It also criticizes the nine in-park counties and 11 towns that have pledged $3,000 each to support a lawsuit against the newly adopted APA shoreline setback regulations.

Warrensburg Town Court report

Flu From page 1

Oct. 14 — Justice Richard Nissen presiding education officials and the local school board.

There have been casual reports that a few of the absent students are afflicted with the H1N1 virus, but these reports from parents have not been verified.

Despite rumors in the community, the school was not near shutting down on Monday, and it won’t take such a drastic action unless absences increase substantially from these record levels, he said.

“We’re responsible for maintaining a safe learning environment and instructional flow, and we’ve been advised to maintain normal functioning,” he said.

Lawson said that he’s been assured by health officials that whether the school closes or not, is not likely to effect how the outbreak spreads through the community.

Lawson predicted that the low attendance levels at the Warrensburg schools will persist for a week or more, as more students become ill, and ill ones get healthy.

He urged that ill students stay home at least five days, or until their body temperatures are back to normal for at least 24 hours and symptoms have disappeared.

Also, the district sent out a letter Friday to parents detailing how their families can best avoid catching or spreading the flu.

Lawson also urged that teenage students get plenty of rest, take it easy, and follow doctors’ orders.

Lawson’s advice is consistent with advisories of Federal health officials, who say that H1N1 virus can have a serious or even deadly outcome for teens and others with stressed or compromised immune systems.

Meanwhile, employees at the school are doing their part to keep the disease transmission as low as possible, Lawson said.

Janitors are nightly wiping down desks, chairs, doorknobs, handrails and phones with disinfectant, he said.

Also, students are being urged to use hand-sanitizer dispensers that are stationed in school hallways, cafeterias, offices, and outside rest room doors, he said.

The flu outbreak is apparently isolated to Warrensburg and Thurman.

the meeting — were shelved because the board members said they were recent hires and they’d recently undergone considerable training and \would be costly to replace.

Town Clerk Donna Combs, who works well over 40 hours weekly for her salary, said she’d likely be trimming some office hours in light of the pay freeze. She objected to how board members Dean Ackley and Austin Markey had waited late in the budget-forming process to propose the cuts.

Several board members accused the two of pandering to voters during an election year, but Markey responded the cuts were merely “the right thing to do” considering the economic climate. Ackley said he’d proposed pay freezes for years.

Combs noted that the board members were not only paid cash for their official work of several hours per month, but received health insurance coverage worth $4,800 to $13,924 per year, which equated to $532 to over $1,000 per hour, she said. Officials said those health benefits extend — for council members serving more than ten years — for a lifetime.

The town board made other cuts Monday totalling $38,572 to a tentative budget that called for $1.13 million to be raised by taxes. The new cuts are expected to slash or eliminate a 4-cent increase in the $3.40 per thousand of assessed valuation charged in 2009.

The 2010 budget calls for a slight decrease in general fund appropriations and a 3 percent increase in the town’s highway budget, primarily due to a 3.5 percent increase to eight town highway workers’ pay, boosted health insurance costs, and increased payments into the state-run workers’ retirement system. The workers’ pay increase, mandated by a union contract signed last year, brings their average pay up to $42,375.

Formulation of a preliminary budget, which will then go to public hearing, must occur by by Nov. 5 under state law, which calls for a final budget to be approved by Dec. 15, officials said.

SATURDAY October 24, 2009 The main factor in the highway department budget increase, Town Supervisor Geraghty said, is a 3.5 percent increase in wages of eight highway department employees, mandated by a union contract signed last year. The average annual earnings of a highway employee is $42,375, he said.

A projected 40 percent increase this year in pension contributions for the employees at a rate mandated by the state, was reduced to about 30 percent because of a new forecast released this week by state officials.

The board also eliminated the $3,500 funding for the town’s summer concert series, at the suggestion of councilman Austin Markey. He said the expense was too high, considering that only 20 people or so on the average attended the concerts.

The board abolished the funding, and decided to advertise weekly “open mike” events and see if talented singers and musicians signed up to perform for free.

Town Board members John Alexander and Joe Barlow, however, defended the concerts.

“I’d like to see them come back,” he said, noting they were a pleasant feature of the town, contributing to its ambiance.

“While not many people attend, when tourists drive through on Wednesday evenings, they roll their windows down and think ‘Warrensburg’s got something!’”

The board’s budget cuts included reducing the number of teenagers supervising the town summer recreation program, reducing the staff from about 20 to 15.

Town board seeks further spending cuts One proposed budget cut may save the town more money. Geraghty suggested the board should consider reducing the cost of town employees’ health care benefits by increasing their co-pay for medical visits from $25 to $35.

This increase would save a full 4 percent of the projected annual $458,000 cost of the employees’ health care benefits, or about $18,000, he said.

Geraghty said the town would make up the $10 difference for every co-pay expense any employee incurred, and the cost of these “make-up” payments would be a few thousand dollars at most.

6 - ADIRONDACK JOURNAL • OPINION

•100 Years Ago – October, 1909• Warrensburg loves Caruso Since his American debut in 1903 as Rigoletto at the Metropolitan Opera in Manhattan, the great Italian grand opera tenor Enrico Caruso has become an American sensation. His records, played on a gramophone with a trumpet horn at gatherings in Warrensburgh homes, provide many a fine evening’s entertainment. His great voice sometimes overwhelms his listeners, often leaving them in tears.

(Note…Born in Naples, Italy in 1873 Caruso was the 18th of Anna Caruso’s 21 children. Only three of them lived beyond infancy. Enrico Caruso, 48, died in 1921 in Naples, eight months after he had sung his last glorious aria at the Metropolitan, while he was trying to rest and recover from a burst blood vessel in his throat. Millions of men and women, some in Warrensburgh and many from around the world mourned his death.)

Double tragedy Peter Lamouria of Whipple Hollow was struck and killed by a Delaware & Hudson train Saturday evening while returning from the undertaker’s shop, where he had been to arrange for the funeral of his son, who had died four days before. The double funeral of the father and son was held near West Rutland, Vermont where they were taken to be buried together in the family plot.

Stoddard compiles map Well-known writer and geographer/photographer Seneca Ray Stoddard of Glens Falls has begun work compiling a new map of the entire Adirondack region, which will be completed in 1910. The new map will be put together from surveys made by government and state engineers and from information obtained from guides, residents of nearby sections and park owners in the great woods.

Deer hunting, fast and easy Judging by the thermometer in these parts winter is close by. The first snow of the season fell Saturday, Oct. 16, 1909. Some hunting parties in Bakers Mills report three or four inches of snow on the northwest side of Number Eleven Mountain.

Frank Randall of North Creek is a lucky man. Monday morning he left his home and went over on the side of Gore Mountain right in sight of the village and shot a nice doe. In just 30 minutes from the time he left the house, he dragged it to the field, came to the village, got a horse and wagon, brought the carcass to the market and sold it, all inside of two hours from the time he left home.

Lake George Club building in ashes

Born for greatness

Fire which caused a loss of about $14,000 destroyed one of the buildings on the property of the new Lake George Club at Hill View (Diamond Point) late in the afternoon of Oct. 29, 1909. The building was an immense four-story structure, formerly a part of the Marion Hotel property and was commonly referred to as the Linden or Marion farm house.

The origin of the fire is a mystery. There was a fire in the furnace and another in the fireplace. A brush fire was burning near the building and it is thought that a spark probably set fire to the building. Neighbors from miles around came to the rescue, but the flames had gotten under such headway that it was impossible to save the structure. There was insurance of $10,000 on the property.

A baby named Erastus Corning 2nd was born Oct. 7, 1909 in Albany. His father owned a steel mill and was lieutenant governor under Gov. Al Smith.

(Note…Corning was first elected mayor in Albany in 1941 and was eventually elected to a record 11 terms in office. He was a dynamo politician, tough as nails, shrewd and totally devoted to his old Dutch city. He knew how to get a job accomplished even if it was done under the table. He was a legend in his own time.

Corning died in office May 28, 1983 of a blood clot and cardiac arrest.)

Queen Village news shorts The prevailing habit of the hour is a cough that seems to hitch onto almost everybody.

Herbert March and Edward Wallace are painting Mrs. Harriet Watson’s tenant house on Main St., Warrensburgh.

(Note…Harriet Watson was the widow of Godfrey P. Watson, 78, who died in 1904. He came from Bolton in 1864 and opened a grocery store which he ran successfully for about 20 years in the building where the Alexander Funeral Home is now located.

Their daughter, Phebe A. Watson married wealthy hotelman Albert Thieriot for whom a street is named in Chestertown.)

Dennis Sullivan of Horicon, was in Warrensburgh Oct. 1, 1909 with his nice black team. They are fine roaders and can stand a hard drive. Dennis drove them 52 miles one day recently and they were in good shape the next day.

W.L.R. Durkee of Fort Edward has sold the Trimble Hotel in Warrensburgh to Harry Bolton, of Horicon, who now has possession. The interior of the building is being thoroughly overhauled and will be placed in first-class shape. (Note…The hotel once stood across Main St. from the Judd Bridge.)

Charles E. Wheeler is moving into David Rothschild’s house on King St. from his summer home at Gull Bay, Hague on Lake George. He is proprietor of the Warrensburgh News Depot since he has bought the news room, stationery and candy store formerly owned by Charles C. Baxter, which Baxter has ran for the past four years. School children come into Wheeler’s store where he provides book covers free of charge for their school books.

Boat and rocks collide While making her usual trip Thursday afternoon and just after leaving Hulett’s Landing, the Lake George steamer Mohican hit the rocks about 100 yards from shore. Capt. Wesley Finkle was at the wheel and it is said the only explanation offered for the accident is that he was suffering from a severe attack of neuralgia and was not in proper condition physically to steer the boat.

There was a mist hanging over the lake at the time and it is believed that this, together with his illness, confused the captain who has spent nearly all of his life on Lake George and knows the lake from one end to another. The passengers were immediately transferred by means of lifeboats to shore and the cargo was transferred to the steamboat Sagamore.

Real estate opportunities Scott B. Smith has a snug little home on upper Ridge St., seven rooms, elegant condition, for $775. He also has a store building on lower River St., suitable for any kind of business, good repair, for $675. Easy terms.

D.E. Pasco has bought the James Colvin property on Putney Hill for $1,000.

Mother welcomes son home Cassius Wood, youngest son of Anna Wood of Warrensburgh, returned home from the Panama Canal Oct. 22, 1909 after an absence of four years, where he had been working for the American government.

Cassius left Warrensburgh Oct. `17, 1905 for Albany, where he shipped out as a musician in the U.S. Marine Corps, remained for two months at the Brooklyn Navy Yard, was than transported to League Island near Philadelphia, where he boarded the battleship Columbia, which reached Panama Dec. 17, 1905.

A surprise party was tendered the young sea soldier by over 30 of his old Warrensburgh schoolmates and friends.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Baker, Rounds will solve problems To the editor: I noticed a campaign ad in the local paper with three incumbents listing their accomplishments, among which included bringing a boat trailer manufacturer to the Warrensburg Industrial Park. To say the least, I was perplexed.

My name is Bill Bunting, and I am the owner of Performance Custom Trailers. I employ approximately 6 individuals currently and hope to add more as the economy recovers. I actually purchased the land under Supervisor Quintal’s term with the understanding that I would build my new facility once I had a buyer for my old location.

When the new Supervisor took over, he and his followers started a costly legal battle to take back the land, as they had decided they wanted it for some municipal reasons which would have removed it once again from the tax rolls.

Not being a native of Warrensburg, I considered not relocating here and seeking out a location where my investment might be welcomed. I then met Bryan Rounds. He convinced me to stay, praising the community and pointing out that elections come around every four years.

Well, it’s election time. I hope everyone will come out and vote for Bryan Rounds for Town Board and Maynard Baker for Town Supervisor. Both seem like the kind of men who solve problems not create them.

Re-elect Kevin Geraghty Nov. 3 To the editor: In this day of high unemployment and trying to recoup all of the money that was wasted for so many years by everyone, not just our elected officials, this is not the year that you will want to oust Kevin Geraghty.

Kevin Geraghty holds himself to the highest standard of fiscal responsibility. His entire employment career has been based on working for the best possible solutions for financial responsibility. He has been involved with Warrensburg Fire Co. for many years, most of them as President. He knows how to obtain grants, both for the Town of Warrensburg and the Fire Co. As a result of Kevin’s work, Warrensburg Fire Co. is the most fiscally responsible emergency response agency. in Warren County.

In closing, please remember that Kevin did not create this financial mess that Warren County is in now, but he is trying to fix it. Please re-elect Kevin, he has the best interests of Warrensburg at heart and is also trying to help on a county level.

Thank you.

Edrie Squires Warrensburg, NY

Return Kevin Geraghty to office!

To the editor: I would like to ask the residents of the Town of Warrensburg to vote to re-elect Kevin B. Geraghty Supervisor for the Town of Warrensburg.

Kevin has been involved in local government for over 19 years — his commitment to Warrensburg speaks for itself in that record, alone.

While serving in his first term of office as Supervisor, Kevin, with the Town Board, has enhanced the air quality for the residents of Warrensburg by eliminating the burning of garbage, but he has also protected the people’s right to continue to burn their yard brush by passing a local law to allow the issuance of burn permits. He has completed the parks along the Schroon River and has established a Town website to allow residents and visitors easy access to government.

Please vote on November 3rd to return Kevin Geraghty to office as Town Supervisor and keep a good town growing!

Pond needs its water level restored To the editor: Thurman is a small cozy nook in the 6-million-acre Adirondack Park few know or heard about, but don’t let that fool ya! I found the charm and scenery appealing long ago because my roots are there — my sunshine.

At one end, north to south, the wide-and-mighty Hudson River flows sparkling clean. Many narrow, winding country roads, scenic old-world byways, lead to highways running through town. From the top of Crane Mountain’s trailhead up Sky High Road to Thurman’s valleys and beyond in neighboring towns, love of wildlife and beauty abound.

Views offer serene streams, ponds, and lakes enhancing all four seasons. Enchanting activities are like magic to the senses. So, I hate to see “Gramps,” the James Russell Pond dry up! Even though the dreams of my 86-year-old mother Bea Russell take her back to the way it once was, I can’t go back to her childhood and this doesn’t seem fair.

I can, however, pray the Adirondack Park Agency decides to do the right thing and let the water return — for the sake of Thurman’s lone Blue Herring seen on shore before takeoff and all visitors as well as residents in the community.

M.E. Williams Thurman

Let’s move forward, not backwards To the editor: What were they thinking?

What were the people who voted in the Republican Primary to elect Maynard Baker Supervisor for the Town of Warrensburg thinking?

With all due respect, Maynard’s “been there, done that” repeat record speaks for itself for his public service in the 1990s.

Did Mr. Baker vote to adopt zoning — thus protecting the residents of Warrensburg’s land and property rights?

No. Did Mr. Baker have insight into the future to make the sewer lagoons large enough for future growth in the Town?

No. Did Mr. Baker protect the residents of Warrensburg in the State’s great landfill closure project? No. Did Mr. Baker actively use his office as Town Supervisor to continue to fight New York State for his own beliefs regarding the Adirondack Park Agency? Yes. As the saying goes, “You can’t go back.”

Common sense says, “Why would you want to?”

LAKE GEORGE• ADIRONDACK JOURNAL - 7

Village adopts ‘green’ ideas for holiday lights, road clearing

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com LAKE GEORGE — With two initiatives enacted Monday, the village board is seeking to help the environment while saving the taxpayers some expense.

The village approved the replacement of conventional holiday lighting for eight large trees with energy-saving LED bulbs, and to use roadway-clearing salt laced with a corn derivative that cuts rock salt use by about 50 percent.

VIllage Department of Public Works Superintendent Dave Harrington made the proposals Monday which were approved by the board.

Village officials estimated that using LEDs, or lightemitting diode bulbs would save up to seven-eighths of the electricity used by conventional bulbs, and save taxpayers $2,200 per year.

The bulbs last longer and are more durable also, Harrington said. These new-technol-

ogy lights last for an estimated 50,000 hours versus 3,500 average for incandescent bulbs, he said.

The board voted Monday to purchase about 4,400 colored LED bulbs for $3,548 for eight large trees in Shepard Park that are traditionally decorated for the holidays.

The board took another earth-friendly idea to heart as they endorsed Harrington’s initiative to use “Magic Salt,” the ice-melting rock salt soaked with a corn compound.

He said it would cut the village’s annual current use of about 400 tons of rock salt down to 200 tons, sparing the area groundwater, lakewater and foliage half the salt pollution they now endure.

The Magic Salt has other benefits, too, despite costing about 25 percent more than standard rock salt, he said.

The new compound will continue to melt ice longer on roadways and work in lower temperatures than

plain rock salt, he said.

The village highway department started using it during the latter weeks of this past winter season, and it performed well, he said.

The Ticonderoga Highway Superintendent had recommended Magic Salt after experiencing how it cut usage by half and kept roadways clearer, longer, down to 25 degrees below zero, Harrington said.

At Monday’s meeting, the board noted they had received recognition from the Adirondack Council for their switchover to the pollution-reducing compound.

In other business, the village board decided Monday to give new village Public Works Employee Keith Lanfear a $1.50 hourly wage increase based on his performance beyond expectations. It was noted that all village workers are to receive a 3 percent raise beginning in June.

The board made another personnel decision. Matt Perry, no relation to village

trustee Ray Perry, was hired for several weeks to help village employees in their autumn duties picking up roadside leaf piles.

Also, the board members rejected the idea of launching a snow-plowing contract with the Scrimshaw residential development development. Board members said they didn’t want the village to get into the plowing business in competition with entrepreneurs.

As of recently, village residents will no longer be awakened at night by the fire siren going off when firefighters are summoned to fight a suspected blaze, Harrington said.

A timer has been activated that silences the siren between 9 p.m. and 7 a.m., he said.

The existing Plektron radio alert system carried personally by firefighters will continue to be operated 24 hours per day, officials said.

Pugs have grand time, humans ditto

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com CHESTERTOWN — The annual Halloween Pug Parade & Party this last weekend in Chestertown was not only a lot of fun in its newly expanded format, but a lot of fun, organizers and attendees said.

The event, held over three days in observance of its 10th anniversary, was a considerable success, event planner Pam Morin said Tuesday.

She said that 153 pugs, and 15 other canines of various breeds registered for the event.

Friday night’s Pug Rescue Benefit Party Pug featured 87 puppies strutting across the stage in a fashion show and 53 humanoid attendees.

Saturday’s Paw Parade, in which pugs strutted down Main St. to the Chester Municipal Center, also was a great success, Morin said.

The pugs proved both their patience and their culture tendencies, she said, as eight of them accompanied 50 people to watch the film “Hotel For Dogs” in a special presentation at the Carol Theater downtown.

Traveling farthest to attend were two pugs Popeye and Olive Oyl, with their human companions Juan Galan and family, driving from Coral Gables Fla. The Landon Hill Bed & Breakfast accommodated the clan for the weekend.

Not only did a variety of local businesses benefit from the event, but the dog owners got a good taste of the amenities and friendly spirit prevailing in Warren County, Morin said.

Although dogs and their owners came from as far away as Florida, Connecticut and New Jersey, about 80 percent hailed from within two hours’ drive — including the hometowns of Gloversville, Hudson, St.

Regis Falls, Albany, Caroga Lake, Plattsburgh, and Ballston Spa. Ten retail vendors and four food vendors had booths, and appeared to conduct reasonable business, she said.

One highlight of the weekend, was that it was the 10th wedding anniversary of the Pug festival’s founders, Kim and Bob Olden, the same span of time the Pug fest has been thriving, Morin said.

Another standout was the baking contest, won by Deborah Ciccarone of Cossayuna with her Pumpkin Cheesecake, topped with candied walnuts and caramel sauce.

“The event was fun and joyful,” Morin said. “It was a lot of fun all weekend — the weather held, but of course it’s all about the pugs, and they had a grand time.”

Fire destroys Stony Creek hunting camp

Vote Bryan Rounds for Councilman, Warrensburg

By Carol LaGrasse denpubs@denpubs.com

As a parent, I routinely try to teach my children to spend their money wisely. Without fail they always want to spend just a little more than they have, looking to me to put in just a little extra.

Our elected officials operate much the same way, rather than scale back on any level, they just go back to the taxpayers to put in just a little extra.

Like you, I have had enough!

As your councilman I promise to control spending and find cost effective solutions.

The same way I do in my personal life.

I promise to be accessible, to listen to your concerns, and be a true voice of the taxpayer.

STONY CREEK — A fire on Sunday morning destroyed a large, 30-year-old hunting camp on Lens Lake Road, a considerable distance into the hills above Stony Creek Center.

The fire was reported by a neighbor who spotted the smoke pouring out of one side of the house at about 10:45 a.m. Within about 15 minutes, the two fire engines of the Stony Creek Volunteer Fire Co. were first to reach the fire.

When the engines arrived, the building was completely engulfed in flames and the fire was spreading up the bank at one end of the house toward the forest. Firefighters under the direction of Second Asst. Chief John Thomas battled the encroaching flames.

Soon after, the Thurman, Hadley-Luzerne, and Corinth fire companies arrived. ≈ It was impossible to enter

the building, fire officials said. All the resources of these fire engines were used to provide water to suppress the fire and occasionally to protect the forest. Even so, the fire became more intense. At the height of the fire’s intensity, flames shot far into the air, carrying smoke at least 150 feet over the house, and dropping live fly ash into the forest a few

hundred feet away. A neighbor scouted the floor of the forest and found ashes that had been carried into the wooded area and extinguished them.

The camp’s owner, James F. Bowman of South Glens Falls, and his family members were hunting on the state land at the end of the road. When the party of four men returned early after-

noon, they saw the cadre of fire equipment and fire police blocking the road and only the blackened, smoldering remains of the building on the ground, with firefighters training hoses on smoking areas. The neat, green painted camp was built by hand by Bowman and his family 30 years ago and served as a base for hunting through the years.

In addition, the children had an opportunity to follow a smoke maze. Firefighters with full turnout gear were in the building with the students, so they learned what a rescuer looks and sounds like during a real emergency. The children also had the opportunity to hit moving targets with fire hoses, and toured the fire trucks and see how some of the fire equipment operates.

The field trip to the firehouse is always the highlight of the annual program for the students who get to ride on a real fire truck for the return trip to school.

Cooperative Extension spared budget axe

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com QUEENSBURY -- While moving ahead on plans to cut 15 Warren County job positions and program funding, county Supervisors voted Friday to table a pending cut of $216,000 to financial support for Cooperative Extension, a sum that its leader said might shut down the agency.

The action came after Warren County Cooperative Extension Director James Seeley made a plea for the supervisors to consider the impact of such a deep cut — one that would probably lead to firing seven of the agency's 13 employees.

Seeley detailed the impact that his agency has on the lives of local people, particularly of those with modest income.

"Considering our educational programs we provide, and the situation of the economy, our services are needed now more than ever," he said, noting there has been a steep increase of enrollment in programs which cover fi-

nancial management, nutrition education and parenting. "This dramatic increase directly correlates to the hard times our county residents are now experiencing."

The $216,250 cut, or 47 percent of the county's financial contribution to the agency, would be magnified because that money leverages an additional $250,000 or so in state funds.

That's not all.

Cornell Cooperative Extension pays the benefits for the local agency's employees, and the agency is now operating programs with a $100,000 Eat Smart NY grant paid for by the federal government -- and that funding too might be eliminated if the agency experiences a $216,000 budget cut, Seeley warned.

He said that the county ran educational programs in which 17,512 were enrolled during 2008.

The services that Cooperative Extension provides, he said, helps people survive hard times, and likely keeps many off public assistance or even may prevent them from ending up in jail.

“We educate people who live, work and spend their money in Warren

County," Seeley said. "This education has a long-lasting impact helping improve lives."

After the board meeting, Seeley said he was happy his agency was temporarily spared the budget reduction.

"I appreciate the opportunity to sit down and work out a reasonable allocation for our organization, so we can at least continue to function."

He said that he was going to hold an agency board of directors' meeting to prioritize programs so the organization can respond to cutbacks of various sizes.

Glens Falls Supervisor Dan Girard objected to Cooperative Extension getting cut by 50 percent, while some other agencies and programs were being cut as little as 10 percent.

He suggested that the supervisors look at trimming the county Sheriff's Department road patrol. Others proposed the agency's $500,000 in overtime be reduced.

"Easy targets are getting pummeled and bullied, but big dockets are not getting addressed," Girard said.

County From page 1 were angry over paying 79 percent of their annual budget of about $150 million on programs and services specifically mandated by the state.

Thurman Supervisor Red Pitkin made the motion to challenge the state in court, after Stony Creek Supervisor Frank Thomas urged the board not to just voice their complaints, but to take action.

Glens Falls Ward 5 Supervisor Bill Kenny expanded the idea to include the initiative for county officials to examine all existing mandated programs and cut funding to the bare minimum; and to look into identifying one mandated program that the county officials deem non-essential - and simply stop funding it.

Kenny's ideas were met with enthusiasm.

Pitkin and Stec said the supervisors' actions were triggered by the state announcing several weeks ago they were discontinuing funding the administration of food stamps across the state, an action which will cost the Warren County taxpayers about $500,000 annually from 2010 forward.

"It's ludicrous that week after week, we have to learn about these new mandated expenses like this," Pitkin said.

Horicon Supervisor Ralph Bentley cautioned the supervisors that more shifting of mandated program costs might be forthcoming, as he cited that the fine print in he governor's latest budget deficit reduction proposal included handing off $1.2 billion more in program expenses to the counties.

"We've had enough," he said.

Injuries mar Warrior’s Coach: let’s summon up the spirit of the past effort against Rams, now team is eyeing Sectionals

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com LAKE GEORGE — Lake George football team endured an uncharacteristic defeat from league-leading Rensselaer Friday in a decisive 49-14 loss.

Tuesday, lake George Coach Jeff Bennett didn’t sound worried about this defeat for his talented team that tallied a winning, eventful season.

The loss was partially due to the injuries of starting defensive noseguard and left tackle Jack Clark — and starting guard and defensive tackle Lee McCabe.

The focus is now on the Section II tournament, with the first matchup Friday night at home against Saratoga Catholic. The Lake George Warriors were seeded third in the tournament.

In a prior matchup, the Warriors were victorious with a solid margin of more than a few touchdowns.

“For the sectionals, we’ve got to fill in a few holes,” Bennett said, referring to McCabe and Clark’s positions.

One bright spot for the playoffs is the return of initial starting quarterback Vinnie Crocitto who was sidelined for four weeks with a broken collarbone. He was practicing this week with his teammates, and he should be ready for action

by Friday, Bennett said. Crocitto’s return means backup quarterback Willy Blunt, who served the team well and proved his versatility, will be able to serve as a running back and receiver.

The Rensselaer Rams game was a matter of injuries, missing key tackles, and committing some mistakes, Bennett said.

“We got down early, and it affected us,” he said.

Rensselaer scored on their opening 70-yard drive, then Lake George fumbled the ensuing kickoff, which within minutes put the Warriors down 14-0.

“Rensselaer is very physical — they’re a class football team,” Bennett said. “It’s a game in which we couldn’t make mistakes, but we did.”

The Warrior scoring efforts were a pair of airborne touchdowns, with Willy Blunt connecting with Matt McGowan.

At halftime, the score was a respectable 28-14, and Lake George took the ball on the kickoff and scored.

After a Rensselaer fumble, Lake George had a chance to tie it up, but injuries took their toll with half of the starting offensive line off the field.

“Due to the injuries, we kinda died off,” Bennett said.

If Lake George is successful against Saratoga Catholic, next up is Greenwich, the No. 2 seed, Bennett said.

“Greenwich is a really good football team,” he said.

WARRENSBURG — Football fans, don’t fret.

Ignore the recent scores which have been ugly.

Don’t dwell on the fact that the team has lost three games straight Forget the fact that about half the players on the football team were immobilized early this week with flu, maybe the dreaded swine variety.

The Warrensburg Burghers are headed into the Sectional playoffs, and the team is now poised for a fresh start, Coach Mike Leonbruno said Monday.

“This is the start of a new season now,” Leonbruno said in an optimistic tone. “Hopefully can find out how not to beat ourselves.”

He and others are hoping that the Warrensburg players will reach back into their collective unconscious and arm themselves with the guts and determination to overcome all odds and achieve glory, as past Burgher teams have.

The fans are hoping the team adheres to the community DNA — which includes hefty loggers and woodsmen, steer wrestlers and muscle-bound construction men from Warrensburg and Thurman.

Yes, the Warrensburg High School players share that DNA of men you didn’t want to mess with, on the field or off.

Last year, the team showed incredible determination, with the ability to overcome deep early-game score deficits and costly blunders, and eke out wins against seemingly impossible odds.

For the 2009 Sectional play, which begins this weekend, the Burghers need to summon up the spirit of the past.

After losing last Saturday 28-6 to Bishop Gibbons, they’ll be facing them again Friday on the Golden Knights’ home field in the Schenectady area.

Although and the Burgher offense moved the ball well in Saturday’s game, mistakes finished one drive after another, and they weren’t able to push the ball into their end zone.

Warrensburg seemed to contain the Knights’ offense well in the first half, but came out flat at halftime, losing their momentum, Leonbruno said. The Knights’ success was based on their ability to make the key plays for touchdowns — underscored by the fact that their yardage and first-down statistics looked similar to Warrensburg’s.

Cole Tennant led the Burgher ground game with 53 yards, and the normally productive Jason Power was held to 11 yards, as was talented teammate Mike Perrone.

Versatile quarterback Brendan Frye picked up 39 yards on the ground, and connected with Perrone on an 11-yard pass play for a touchdown.

Leonbruno offered comments for two of his players, Power and Kendall Converse. The coach said Power has been playing well all season, and Converse stepped up on defense, making key tackles for the Burghers.

The Bishop Gibbons game was the fourth loss after a solid, promising start to the season.

The prior week’s loss, however, a 28-21 defeat by Hoosic Valley, was nearly a win for Warrensburg — Hoosic Valley turned the tide in the last several seconds.

Monday, Leonbruno was ever hopeful his players would dig deep and summon up the spirit of past Warrensburg players, like Nate and Mike Monforte, Mason Hamilton, Chris Cameron, Bobby and Brad West, Joe Guistino, Matt Blair, Dave Mahler, Ryan Winslow, Jon Alexander, John Welch, or Darrin Rafferty.

“If we come out strong, get an early lead and keep up the momentum, we’ve got a shot in the Sectionals,” he said. “If we play for a whole game believing we can win, we’ll do it.”

Warrensburgh Youth Football

Reflections on the joy of football Guest Essay

By Mike Irish Coach, Warrensburg Youth Football denpubs@denpubs.com The season’s over and it’s that time of year for coaches to reflect on what they could have done better.

Most coaches are evaluated by the win/loss tally. But youth coaches are judged by greyer areas — which can expand or constrict, depending on which column has the higher number in it.

When any coach assembles his team he does so with the goal of winning. This is not an easy task in youth football. We try to assemble a team that will be competitive, not necessarily win, but be in the game. We have to deal with a variety of talent levels, attention spans and that each child playing doesn’t get hurt. With this assessment, it’s difficult to assure each child equal playing time.

Anyone that has played football knows that it is a ruthless sport. Children who don’t know their assignment or aren’t paying attention can easily become part of the turf. Believe me; this weighs heavy on youth coaches’ hearts. We teach each player the fundamentals and how they relate to each position.

Some get it right away, some take longer and some never will.

But our league has rules that keep that safety in mind. The good coaches stick to those rules even when it can put more numbers in the loss column.

I’ve always loved football and I would never discourage anyone from playing the game. I appreciate every child that joins the team and finishes the season.

There are a lot of reasons why kids join youth football.

Some are there because they have the talent or competitive drive, some love the sport, many seek to be with their friends and others because that’s what their father wants. Whatever the

reason, these kids in Warrensburg Youth Football had a great season and their final 2009 games showed that.

Saturday’s games against Whitehall had everything to offer. The junior Burghers had the most exciting game I’ve seen in a long time.

Jacob Johnson had two touchdowns as he racked up over 200 yards. John Kelly stripped a ball for a 60-yard defensive touchdown. Garry Ross and Greg Shambo also added touchdowns and Dan Monthony had two extrapoint runs in the 32-27 win over Whitehall. It came down to the last seconds with a great defensive stand

by Tyler Baker, John Kelly and Chris Wilson. Junior Burgher Head Coach Gary Baker said that it was an honor and a privilege to be part of something so precious and he wanted to thank all his coaches.

The Senior Burghers were plagued by injuries and they lost 19-0. But Brandon Schwarz, Donnie Stone, John Kindred, Alex Barber, Jacob Nemec and John “J Dog” Simmes had some outstanding plays in the effort.

At the end of the senior game Saturday night, one of the players, Jacob Smit wanted to say something to

the whole team. He stood in front of his peers and proclaimed, “This was the best year ever!” He then reminded everyone to think about Brandon Turner who had to leave the game with a slight concussion.

The 2009 season is over and no one got seriously hurt; we won some games, we lost some games, we even tied one, so to me, this has been a successful season.

And I’d have to agree with Jacob Smit, this has been the best year ever. And that’s because of the local coaches that were assembled this year. The coaches possessed qualities that helped them excel: they were caring, understanding, knowledgeable, competitive and safety-conscious.

These coaches volunteer and put a lot of hours in, so that we can have a program for the children. They should all be commended for a job well done. Appreciation goes to Al Perrone, Gary Baker, Mike Turner, Kim Monthony, Christian Frasier, Brian Winchell, Mike Watson, Jerry Smit, Greg Shambo and Larry Olden for the best year ever.

States consider ban on the use of deer urine in lures I

stopped by Adirondack Outfitters in Lewis today to stock up on a couple essentials for the Oct. 17 muzzlestuffer opener and Steve Koop mentioned some states, including Vermont, are considering banning the use of deer urine in hunting lures.

We both found this hard to believe. The hunting lure industry is a multi-milliondollar business and the use of urine as a masking scent and an attractant for bucks is extremely popular.

But I did a little research and it turns out that a ban may indeed become reality.

That’s because biologists are concerned the commercially-available urine, which comes from captive deer held in pens, could spread chronic wasting disease, or CWD. CWD is an always fatal disease of the nervous system which has been identified in deer in 15 states — including New York — and two Canadian provinces.

The disease is spread from one deer to another through saliva and other bodily fluids, along with food that has grown in CWD-contaminated soil. The proteins that carry CWD are excreted in both feces and urine, and once they reach the soil, become 700 times more infectious.

Lures that use deer urine First identified in Colsuch as the one above marketorado in 1967, CWD has ed by Hunter’s Specialties and been found in Colorado, the one below marketed by Illinois, Kansas, Nebraska, Wildlife Research Center New Mexico, New York, could be banned in some South Dakota, Montana, states because of a concern Oklahoma, Minnesota, that the product could spread Utah, Wisconsin, West Virthe debilitating deer disease ginia, Wyoming and the known as CWD. The ban could Canadian provinces of Alhave a severe impact on the berta and Saskatchewan. mulit-million-dollar lure indusCWD was first identified try. in New York in 2005 in the captive deer herd in central New York. After that, several regulations were put in place to help control its spread, included a feeding ban - and a containment area was created in Oneida and Madison counties.

Since that time, two cases of CWD have been identified in the wild deer herd in the containment area, but biologists are optimistic because the disease has not yet spread statewide.

In the meantime, wildlife officials in neighboring states are keeping a wary eye on CWD, knowing it can have potentially devastating impacts to deer numbers.

Last week, biologists of the Pennsylvania Game Commission urged state officials to consider a ban on deer urine and products that use it in an effort to keep CWD out of the state.

Walt Cottrell, the Wildlife Veterinarian for the Pennsylvania Game Commission, said Saskatchewan has already banned urine lures and nine states are considering it — including Vermont and New Hampshire.

While Cottrell said he could not give the likelihood that the disease will spread by the use of the lures, he said a ban would be better than doing nothing.

“CWD is forever,” he said. “If you get it, you're going to have it forever.”

Pennsylvania Game Commissioner Tom Boop asked if there was a way that the marketers of deer urine could somehow certify a product as being CWD-free.

But Cottrell said it is currently not possible because there is no live-animal test for the disease and it can take up to 18 months for a deer to show signs of being sick.

“It seems, at the least, that we should put out a news release making hunters aware of the potential,” for urine to spread CWD, Boop said. “I'm just thinking a lot of people have never even thought about this.”

DEC Spokesman David Winchell said state officials have discussed a ban on deer urine in New York but said there is no proposal currently on the table to implement a ban.

Retiring APA official: ‘agency needs to seek balance’

ADIRONDACK JOURNAL - 19

Sen. Little seeks to reform Liquor Authority, slash lengthy permit delays

denpubs@denpubs.com

By Jon Alexander denpubs@denpubs.com

RAY BROOK — After 35 years in state government, Adirondack Park Agency Deputy Director for Regulatory Programs Mark Sengenberger has learned a few things.

In his farewell report to APA commissioners before retiring this month, Sengenberger made some recommendations for the future of the agency and its approach to various issues.

“The economic problems in the Adirondacks are not unique to the park,” Sengenberger said. “These are issues found in rural places throughout the state.”

During his tenure at the agency, Sengenberger has signed permits for over 2,300 projects, while denying only two.

“Most projects have required revisions in order to comply with our standards,” he said. “But the fact that agency staff lives here is shown in their work – the applicants are their neighbors.”

Local government officials have long argued that the widespread poverty and lack of affordable housing in the Adirondacks are direct results of APA policy.

Sengenberger acknowledged that due to the unique characteristics of the Park, a particularly distinct economic dichotomy has arisen – with many communities all but void of a middle class.

“The whole key is to find a balance between environmental concerns and creating a place where the residents can stay and live,” he said. “This should be a park where low- and moderate-income families can come visit. It just can’t be a place for wealthy second-home owners.”

He contended that through appropriate planning and outreach to local governments, the economic prospects for Adirondack residents could be improved.

Most of his comments focused on permitting cell towers. Sengenberger suggested that commissioners consider a resolution to no longer require all cell-tower projects to come before the board.

He said that the agency’s evaluation of permit applications might be too extensive, and that the agency should consider allowing taller towers and sharing of transmission sites to provide for better coverage and reduced costs.

“There is room to be a little more flexible than we have on this issue,” he said to APA commissioners.

Cellular companies claim that the extensive permitting review combined with numerous project revisions nearly double the cost of tower construction in the Adirondacks.

The average cell tower in the state costs a carrier $57,000 to construct, but the figure balloons to over $100,000 inside the Blue Line.

Sengenberger also suggested that the APA’s requirement of cloaking many towers as fake pine trees may not be necessary, as appropriate planning can minimize line-of-sight problems.

The State Land Master Plan requires the agency to protect the “wilderness character” of the Adirondacks, which has traditionally been interpreted as a mandate for aesthetic conservation.

And Commissioner Lani Ulrich said she agrees that the cell tower issue is one that needs to be hashed out.

“This is a conversation that needs to happen,” she said.

Commissioners said that they would take Sengenberger ’s comments into consideration and address the issue at the November agency meeting.

Is the work at Gaslight Village appropriate?

Lake George Town Supervisor Lou Tessier has directed town employees to rehabilitate the vacant Cavalcade of Cars building and former Opera House at the Westbrook environmental park now under development.

Warren County leaders have agreed with his intent of using the buildings to host festivals, expositions and events in an effort to boost tourism on the county festival grounds of Westbrook Park on the former Gaslight Village property.

But Tessier’s actions renovating the buildings have met up with some criticism and resistance. Complaints have been heard that he has ordered renovations without having a feasibility study, business strategy, or redevelopment plan in place.

Some have said that the townspeople of Lake George should have input in whether town resources — money for materials and the labor of town personnel — should be expended on the project. Some have concerns about the town employees removing materials containing asbestos from the structures.

More than a few people say his latest action — to tear down the walls of the opera house and leaving the building’s skeleton behind — isn’t appropriate in an effort to create an openair performance pavilion. They say the work was undertaken without approval by county supervisors or input from the public. Some say that the appearance of the structure has been degraded substantially.

• Lake George Supervisor Lou Tessier’s actions are fully appropriate, considering the effort to create all-weather facilities to host festivals and events at a reasonable cost.

• Supervisor Lou Tessier’s actions need scrutiny by the town board and the efforts on the festival grounds need to change direction — although preserving the two buildings makes sense.

• Stop the project and tear the two buildings down to enhance the beauty of the Westbrook environmental park.

ALBANY — For years, business owners have complained about the costly, time-consuming and what they call unduly burdensome process surrounding liquor licensing in New York State.

A report released recently by the state Law Revision Commission validates these claims, and for longtime Liquor Authority critic state Senator Betty Little, the time for change is now.

“Businesses whose economic survival has depended on being able to serve and sell beer and alcohol have had to wait months and months to receive their liquor licenses,” Little said. ”That’s unacceptable and absurd, quite frankly, at a time when the state’s own economic survival depends so much on revenues that businesses like these can generate if given the chance.”

In order to secure a liquor license in New York, businesses must answer questions not only about what type of establishment they are — like a club, bar or restaurant for example — but the authority also wants to know obscure details like building height and type of music played.

“I just don’t see how that type of information is relevant,” Little said.

The report finds that the Liquor Authority now has a full year backlog and is short-staffed.

Various tavern enterprises, including CB Spirits in Warrensburg, were mired in delays in recent years as they sought to obtain a liquor permit.

The lengthy delays are devastating to would-be business owners who often have invested their life-savings into an en-

deavor just to see it sit empty and turn little if any profit.

The Law Revision Commission’s report calls for the issuing of temporary licenses for businesses looking to sell alcohol while the lengthy application review process takes place.

Such a measure would require that legislation be passed in the state Assembly and Senate.

Little authored a bill that would do just that last spring, but it has yet to reach the floor of either house for a vote.

“I’ve also met with the liquor authority’s new chairman, Dennis Rosen, and he is very determined to make the authority work better for small businesses,” she said. I’m looking forward to learning the commission’s recommendation, but I think we have some good, pragmatic ideas that could help things improve very quickly.”

Along with Democratic state Senators Craig Johnson and David Valesky, Little hopes to reintroduce the bill — this time with bipartisan sponsorship, which could significantly improve its chances of adoption. If adopted, the bill would issue a 90-day permit that could be extended an additional 60 days and would allow for immediate revocation if violations were found.

The bipartisan legislation, still in the works, would require 50 percent of Liquor Authority revenue be spent on the agency’s ability to regulate and permit state Alcoholic Beverage Control laws.

In fiscal year 2008-2009, the state Liquor Authority generated $54,090,413, while only spending $18,480,000 from this year ’s state budget.

There are currently over 3,000 applications for liquor licenses – many dating back a full year – waiting for review by the state Liquor Authority.

Gillibrand seeks equality for women under health care reform

By Jon Alexander denpubs@denpubs.com WASHINGTON D.C. — U.S. Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (DNY) openly backed the controversial organization Planned Parenthood recently as she spoke out recently on the need for health-care reform that would include expanded coverage of women’s health issues.

“Under the current system, women can be turned down for health-care coverage because insurance companies would rather evade those costs,” she said. “Pregnancy should never be a pre-existing condition. Such discrimination is unacceptable and contrary to the American values of equality.”

The Senate Finance Committee last week approved the version of the Obama healthcare reform bill put forth by committee chairman Max Baucus, and it’s now being debated by the full Senate.

The 10-year, $829 billion Baucus bill is widely considered as the health-care reform measure most likely to garner any semblance of bi-partisan support.

As part of negotiations with dissenting Republicans, Baucus stripped the legislation of the “public option” and replaced it with subsidies for those earning between 100 percent and 400 percent of the poverty level.

But for Gillibrand, the conservative push to eliminate as many programs as possible represents a direct threat to expanded coverage of women’s health issues.

“According to data provided by the National Woman’s Law Center, under the current system a 25-year-old woman pays up to 45 percent more for the same or identical coverage,” she said. “Some of the most essential services required by women are not covered by many insurance plans, such as child bearing, pap smears or mammograms.”

Many Republican Senators are unhappy because some federal subsidies would likely go to insurance plans that do cover abortions under the Baucus proposal.

But for Gillibrand, women’s health is about much more than obtaining an abortion. It’s about access to basic health-care services.

“In my own state, over 400,000 New Yorkers receive health care from Planned Parenthood every year. Most are working adults who can’t afford other services,”she said.

“Our strategy for reform must protect these critical services that clinics provide — The health crisis is a life and death issue.”

Due to the lack of a public option, 16 million Americans would still be left uninsured by the Baucus bill – a reduction of roughly 30 million citizens than at the present time.
