ALBANY Ñ Matt Funiciello of Glens Falls, the most successful third-party candidate for Congress in Warren County in recent history, testified before the state Assembly Jan 13 on behalf of a single-payer health care system in New York. Funiciello, proprietor of Rock Hill Bakery and its associated cafe in Glens Falls, spoke on behalf of the proposed New York Health Act. The legislation would establish a state-run system that would replace the present patchwork system that relies on both private insurance companies, as well as the federal and state governments. New York Health Act has been championed by state Assemblyman Richard Gottfried, a Manhattan Democrat. Gottfried and Funiciello both say that if health care was provided merely through the state government, $20 billion would be saved by eliminating insurance companiesÕ overhead and the burdensome administrative costs that health care providers shoulder by dealing with these firms as well the

From page 1 ments on her own Ñ despite some formidable challenges Ñ which was unusual in the mid1900s for a woman. Delila was born Jan. 31, 1915 to George Burton Reynnolds and Ida Parker Reynolds in her familyÕ s home, a three-room primitive home at the foot of Burch Mountain in Thurman. During her life, Delila lost many of her loved ones at an early age Ñ her maternal grandmother perished in a raging house fire, her father departed the family household while she was a youngster, and her beloved husband died well before his time. Persis Granger said that DelilaÕ s mother, who was the sole parent in the household for many years, likely provided a strong role model for the woman who became such a prominent citizen in Thurman. Delila said this week that her earliest memories of her childhood were lying in her crib, being tucked in by her mother when she was merely two years old. Another early memory was grieving her infant sister LauraÕ s death soon thereafter at a few weeks of age. DelilaÕ s daughter Anne Rohe said her motherÕ s recollections arenÕ t to be doubted, as the 99-year-old woman can recite thousands of facts with accuracy Ñ even her 16-digit credit card numbers. DelilaÕ s vivid memories of her later youth
www.adirondackjournal.com include picking blueberries on Crane Mountain and collecting worms to sell to people fishing in the local waterways. The loss of her grandmother was a considerable blow, considering Delila considered her as the most interesting person she had ever known. Ò Grandma ParkerÓ collected an array of fascinating treasures, designed and sewed ladiesÕ hats, was a skilled craftsperson, gathered herbs for their medicinal uses, served as a midwife and attended to the family’s afflictions with traditional remedies. DelilaÕ s mother worked hard as well as tending to her family. She worked cleaning houses and area motels, and regularly hiked four miles home to check on her young children who were being watched by Ò Grampa Parker.Ó Ò During the winter, she made our clothing, knit our mittens, cooked, baked and kept the old house clean,Ó Delila wrote of her mother. Ò She knit some socks for sale. She was a dedicated Christian who prayed with us and taught us right from wrong. She never refused to help others, and shared willingly from her meager supply.Ó
Delila’s school years were formative
Delila recalled her childhood Ñ that she walked two miles to school each day, a oneroom schoolhouse where all eight grades were taught by one teacher. The children in the primary grades learned a lot by

paying attention to what the older students were learning, she said. After the eighth grade, her mother arranged to send her to Glens Falls, where she worked long hours for room and board so she could attend high school. Delila was one of the very few Thurman residents of that era to attend high school. In the Glens Falls school, she experienced culture shock Ñ encountering modern conveniences for the first time like a shower in the girlÕ s locker room Ñ as well as learning how differently city children lived and dressed. Delila graduated in 1932 from Glens Falls High along with just 32 classmates, and that fall she began her studies at Oneonta Normal School Ñ which later became SUNY Oneonta. She attended the college for four years, marrying Loren J. Walter after her initial year. Graduating from Oneonta in 1936, she took a job teaching at a one-room schoolhouse in Kenyontown, a tiny hamlet in Thurman. She taught at the school for seven years. Meanwhile, she gave birth to their first of their two daughters, Laurona. Loren built a garage in Thurman, where he had secured part-time work. The couple lived in the garage while they built their home on Glen Creek Road. Loren worked at a chicken farm nearby, which became a dude ranch. Delila and Loren both worked at the enterprise, called Indian Hill Dude Ranch in the late 1930s. During the early years of World War II, Loren worked on extending the D&H Railroad from North Creek to Tahawus and later was employed as a mechanic at Ford Garage in Glens Falls Ñ while Delila tended to Laurona.
Delilah and Loren run joint enterprises
Then in 1945, Delila and Loren bought a general store in Kenyontown and operated it for years as WaltersÕ Trading Center. In the earlier years of their enterprise, there was no electricity or telephone service within miles of Kenyontown. In that era, they accommodated customersÕ needs by pumping gasoline with a crank and cut ice from the local river during the winter and stored it in their ice house so local folks could have cold soda and perishables in the warm months. Successful for a while, the business encountered hard times. The advent of automobiles Ñ which made purchasing goods in WarrensburgÕ s markets convenient Ñ and extending too much credit to Thurman neighbors, both took their toll, Delila recalled. Ò We lost more money than we made,Ó she said. During this era, Loren was elected chairman of the Thurman Board of Assessors at a salary of $1,000 per year, and the two started buying
Published by Denton Publications, Inc. and selling homes and land locally. Later, they started a new business called Perma Green, spray-painting artificial grass used by funeral directors and cemeteries to conduct burials. The business expanded fast over the entire eastern U.S. coast, and the two traveled to destinations from Maine to Florida accompanied by Anne. Meanwhile, a neighbor or two tended their general store back home. In 1956, Loren Ñ a charter member of the Thurman Volunteer Fire Co. Ñ responded to a fire at the renowned local French restaurant, Le Chalet Francaise. After working a while to fight the fire, Loren died suddenly of a coronary occlusion on June 23, a day after he turned 52. Delila rode in the ambulance that took Loren straight from the fire scene to the local funeral parlor. Ò Life thereafter changed for all of the family,Ó Delila wrote in her memoirs, as she described her heartfelt loss. She continued to run the general store on her own for a while, but later moved to a home beside the town hall in Athol. She lived there with Anne, and stayed there for years alone after Anne left for college. Meanwhile, the town board appointed Delila to the post of Town Assessor to take over Loren’s remaining year in office. She was elected to a subsequent four-year term. Ò I heard enough complaints to last a lifetime,Ó she said in her memoirs. Ò I refused to run again.Ó She did run, however, for town supervisor in the early 1960s, challenging a popular politician, she recalled. Her intent was to improve conditions in town. Ò I got beat so badly, I have tried to forget it. I guess that I probably had raised too many assessments beforehand to ever get elected.Ó
Delila launches her public campground
From the mid-1950s to early 1960s, she purchased a large number of properties, including plots on the upper Hudson River. Hearing that state campgrounds were immensely popular and turning away campers, she decided to develop her own private campground. In launching the enterprise, she utilized skills she had acquired in the prior decades, fixing up one home after another. She started by clearing the property on her own. In early 1962, Ted Katchele, an entrepreneur who had developed a marina in New Hampshire, came to look at some hunting property she had advertised for sale. Ted was intrigued, however with the campground instead, and Delila took him on as a partner. CONTINUED ON PAGE 3

From page 1 government. Ò Obamacare does nothing to make health care more affordable in the U.S.,Ó Funiciello said, noting that the U.S. government alone spends $9,800 per citizen annually on medical costs. Ò Health care is the biggest economic scam going on in this country.Ó In his testimony, Funiciello noted that during his early years living in Ontario, had been covered by the provinceÕ s health care system, which provided coverage to all residents. He noted that the Canadian health care system not only was universal coverage, but it cost about half per capita of the amount spent on health care in the U.S., yet ranked substantially higher for quality of care than the U.S. system. He noted that the Canadian health care approach drastically reduced administrative and billing costs, which in the U.S. are between 22 percent and 30 percent of health care expenses. He noted that about twice the money is spent on health care in the U.S. than Canada, but our nation ranks 38th among nations for quality of care, compared to 30 for Canada, which has no

then leased it out to the Strain family for three years. She turned it over to her daughter Laurona in 1981, so she could take care of her aging mother.
From page 2 The two began by developing a spring as well as blazing trails around Heath Mountain nearby for their campers to hike. D&H Railroad workers welding track that crossed Delila and Ted’s campground caused a major fire that burned dozens of trees, and the railway paid them $8,000 as compensation, The sum provided the duo vital working capital during the campgroundÕ s initial years. During that era, the town road leading to the campgrounds was unimproved and often impassable. Also, the campground had no telephone and electric service. Delila petitioned the town government for road improvements as well as utility service. The two operated the campground together until until 1968 when Katchele decided to move on, and Delila bought out his share. She continued to run the enterprise more than a decade,
co-pays or deductibles. He also noted that the U.S. health care system, which relies on for-profit corporations as middlemen, encourages denial of coverage, and has enabled pharmaceutical companies to charge so much for their drugs that the U.S. has the highest pharmaceutical costs of any western nation. He also noted that the existing system is riddled with exclusions and prevents many citizens from receiving care from doctors of their choice. He said that health care costs could be exorbitant to individuals and families who experience a medical calamity. Ò Millions of Americans are just months away from being destitute,Ó he said, noting that he does not have health insurance for himself, nor do 45 million other U.S. citizens. Ò This is one of the most important issues in the U.S.Ó Funiciello concluded his presentation urging politicians to follow the will of individuals rather than powerful corporations. Ò Kudos and bravo to those New York politicians who have the fortitude and principles to push forward toward single payer legislation,Ó Funiciello said.
Delila concentrates on real estate
From the 1960s through the 1980s, Delila bought and sold real estate, fixing up homes in Thurman in Warrensburg as rentals. After giving up the campground, she also conducted this enterprise in Florida. She worked alongside contractors on much of the rehabilitation efforts. Later in life, she kept active in town politics, attending town meetings, delving into local history, and writing poems and memoirs. Asked two weeks before her 100th birthday about what prompted her longevity, she answered with a smile. Ò When a doctor once asked me that question, I told him I stayed away from doctors,Ó she quipped. Ò I canÕ t give others good advice on living to 100 Ñ ItÕ s just that God gave me the reason to live.Ó

From the Editor
It takes more than boats to float a marina
W
ord on the street is there is a rebirth afoot in downtown Plattsburgh. Politicians have been talking and talking about bringing a city-run marina to downtown. The most forward progress that the project has seen to date happened just a week ago when the Common Council voted a kingÕ s ransom to buy new docks and turn the operation over to the Montreal-based Navtours. If the marina does come to pass, new businesses will immediately spring up in the cityÕ s downtown, weÕ re promised. But what kind of new businesses will come? Businesses need space close to where these new boaters will be tying up. The space immediately around the marina however, with scant few exceptions, is residential space. The main problem then becomes logistics. Are boaters going to leave their boats at the new marina and walk past the only restaurant close by, the Naked Turtle, to walk to other downtown restaurants a half mile away? Do they come now from the current marina, the Plattsburgh Boat Basin? Will they even know what downtown businesses are within Ò walking distanceÓ of the marina? And is your average recreational boater going to head out in flip-flops, take the lengthy walk up past the train station, hang a right and trudge down a fairly uninviting sidewalk, just to get to the outskirts of the business district proper? Are they going to shop at all the Ò boutiqueÓ stores which are yet to be built, and trudge their parcels back this same way? What the city needs to go hand in hand with the new marina is a city-run shuttle service to bring boaters, the overwhelming majority of which will be well-heeled Canadians, to the scant downtown shopping and dining corridor as it currently stands. The city can sell ad space on the shuttle itself, and publish maps and brochures, available at the marina and on the shuttle, to downtown businesses. This will help defray the costs to the city to run the shuttle and give aggressive businesses a leg up on their competitors. It is an anathema in Plattsburgh to liken any planned changes in the city to what Burlington currently offers, but why not talk about a city whose marina brings proven results? Dock in Burlington, and the city simply invites the boater to come in and shop. ItÕ s about the same distance of a walk, but nautical shoppers know what theyÕ re going to get: a nice walk to good stores in a vibrant downtown environment. Which brings us to the other thing that the city needs to encourage, which will supposedly go
hand in hand with the new marina as the promise goes: Good, higher-end downtown businesses. In the past few years, however, this has been anything but the trend in Plattsburgh. A casual stroll along downtown streets shows only two types of businesses which seem to be thriving: Secondhand stores and tattoo parlors... not exactly magnets for up-scale Canadian shopping dollars. On Margaret Street alone, one canÕ t swing a dead cat and not hit either one or the other types of establishments. Granted, tattoos have become mainstream in American culture and donÕ t attract the type of riffraff that their former stigma implied, but the jury is certainly out as to how many Canadian boaters will make the trek up the hill for some new ink. We can pretty much go out on a limb and guarantee that very few will be shopping for some secondhand DVDs or a samurai sword to bring back to their half-million dollar boats. Sure, Pawn Stars is currently one of the most popular shows on television, but that doesnÕ t mean that PlattsburghÕ s thrift stores will be able to capitalize on this trend and attract Canadian shoppers. Those holding the reins of power in the city seem to think that just bringing more boaters to the Plattsburgh shores will bring good business to the downtown. But the opposite could likely be the case: Shoppers go to stores, not stores to shoppers. If the city can’t find some way to entice good businesses to locate downtown before the boaters come, the boaters will never make it any further than the Turtle... that is, if they choose to dock at PlattsburghÕ s new marina at all. All this pre-supposes that the project will come together in time for this yearÕ s boating season. By spring, itÕ s all but too late. Boaters reserve their dock space months, if not years, in advance. If PlattsburghÕ s docks are going in the water in, say, June, itÕ s just too late to salvage this season. Then itÕ s back to the drawing board and another lost year of possibilities. The prospects thus far donÕ t seem to be too confidence inspiring, as the current council wrestles with a reputation for extreme political ennui. They could turn that all around, however, if the next two months see the council chambers turned into a beehive of activity between the city and Navtours, working on the three-legged-stool of marina, shuttle bus and good downtown businesses. Not much time will be needed to tell. ÑD

Turning Back the Pages By Jean Hadden Update – 2015
This morning, Jan. 17, 2015, I ventured out of my house with the intention of driving to the Richards Library to sit in front of their micro-film machine for a few hours, as is my weekly habit, to read 100 year old Ò Warrensburgh News,Ó for this column. My plans were quickly changed when I found all four of my car doors frozen solidly shut. I found this astonishing as I would actually possibly expect to find dandelions blooming on the lawn, not frozen door locks, in these days of so called Ò man - made global warming.Ó Back in my warm house I plowed through my collection file of old newspapers and unearthed some 50 year old papers and decided that it was time for something different. Many times, in the past 34 years I have been writing this column, I have written about 50 years ago and several readers told me they enjoyed it because it involved people of their time that they knew well and possibly went to school with. One lady did say, however, that she would beat me up if I did it again as the news sometimes concerned her former teen age class mates and it made her depressed to realize that she was Ò getting old.Ó Not wanting to get a black eye, I have since stayed away from the subject and I must remember to keep an eye out over my shoulder as I could possibly now well be in trouble.
Delila Walter, the best of both worlds
I have been very happy exploring in the lost world of 1915 and the micro-film machine has been my time capsule. Not many people have made that long trek from 1915 to 2015 but I am happy to say that my good friend, Hannah Delila Walter, of Thurman, will celebrate her 100th birthday anniversary on January 31, 2015. Delila, always young at heart, has always been blessed with a sharp recall of Thurman history whose people, past and present, made it the great place that it is today. Born in the big blizzard of 1915, on the Glen Athol Road, she is the widow of Loren Walter. Delila a respected Thurman business lady, has lived in Thurman most, if not all, of her life until very recently in a house that history dates back to 1804. Happy birthday, Delila!
Fifty Years Ago – January, 1965 Dead man lying in the rain
Burton J. Butler, 63, salesman for Grit magazine and a habitual bicyclist who was a distinctive part of the Warrensburg landscape, was killed by an automobile, Monday night, Jan. 25, 1965 about six OÕ clock as he cycled home. The accident happened on Main Street, opposite Hoddy OvittÕ s Garage. Frank Arsenault, 64, of Indian Lake, who was driving the car which hit Butler said he didnÕ t see the cyclist in the dark. Sheriff Bill Carboy and Deputy Rehm investigated. Dr. Clinton E. Lawrence, County Coroner, who was summoned to the scene, said that Mr. Butler was dead on his arrival. Burt Butler was a cheerful, talkative man, sometimes considered as an eccentric, but a friendly soul. He liked to decorate his bicycle with bumper stripes and other colorful material. Survivors include his wife, Mrs. Nellie Butler, two sons, George, of Warrensburg and Burton Jr., of Vermont, three daughters, Mrs. John Needham and Mrs. Jean Martin, of Warrensburg and Mrs. Frederick Brooks, of Ludlow, Vermont and six grandchildren. (Note - This story brings back to me a vivid memory. On Jan. 25, 1965 my six year old son, Maclane Hadden had an operation performed at the Glens Falls Hospital. He was allowed to leave
the hospital that day and he was feeling poorly as I rushed to drive him home through a heavy rainstorm. By the time we reached the foot of Marion Park on upper Main Street, I saw police cars blocking the street. I pulled over and saw to my dismay a dead body lying in the street with the rain pelting down upon the manÕ s face. He was quickly covered by a blanket and loaded into an ambulance. He must have died only minutes before I arrived at that awful scene. I only found out later that the man was Burt Butler, a friend I was well acquainted with. The picture in my mind is still as vivid as it was 50 years ago.)

Letter to the Editor
A history of litigation To the Editor: What follows is an abbreviated history of the litigation concerning the Adirondack Club. The witches brew of half-truths and misinformation served by preservationists of all pretentions at public meetings, in anonymous comments and postings and in countless interviews and press releases were as much part of the litigation as any pleading. Like the litigation, the propaganda war was intended to cause delay, increase costs, decrease profits, chill investor interest and poison the well of public opinion. The preservation groups and their apologists have tried to justify the litigation by proclaiming high motives, the existence of serious issues and dedication to science. Nonsense. They could never have had a reasonable expectation of winning in court. It appears clear they simply wanted to bleed the community and us dry. In laymanÕ s terms, a frivolous lawsuit is one without any legal merit. Every court that considered the merits found the lawsuits filed by Protect and the Sierra Club to be without merit. We submit that the question for your readers and their elected representatives is not whether the suits were an attempt to prevent economic opportunity for residents of the Adirondack Park. Anyone who looks at the record of Protect will see the answer to that. The real question is whether special interest groups should be allowed to inflict intentional damage on the community with impunity simply because they claim to be acting in the public interest. It is one thing to let them state their opinions at a hearing like everyone else. It is entirely another to give them standing to litigate and the ability to game the judicial system without risk. They have no incentive to behave reasonably. That said, here is the promised chronology: 2004 and 2005 - A conceptual review by the APA board that Ò encouragedÓ us to proceed with the Adirondack Club (Ò ACRÓ )
application. January 2007 - The Association for the Protection of the Adirondacks (Ò AssociationÓ ), the ResidentsÕ Committee to Protect the Adirondacks (Ò ResidentsÕ CommitteeÓ ) and some neighbors filed an Article 78 proceeding challenging actions taken by the Town Board in September 2006 rezoning the ACR site. November 2, 2007 - The Supreme Court dismissed the Article 78 proceeding and a related action. November 27, 2007 - The Association and the ResidentsÕ Committee appealed the November 2, 2007 Supreme Court decision to the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court. July 2, 2009 - The Appellate Division affirmed the Supreme Court decision. January 31, 2012 Ð After years of staff review and completion of an adjudicatory hearing as well as a series of public meetings; the Adirondack Park Agency (Ò APAÓ ) board approved the application of the ACR by a 10 to 1 vote. March 20, 2012 Ð Protect (the surviving entity after the merger of the Association and the ResidentsÕ Committee) and the Sierra Club filed a new Article 78 with the Supreme Court, Albany County seeking to annul the APA boardÕ s 10 to 1 vote. June 18, 2012 – Protect and the Sierra Club filed an amended Article 78 petition with the Supreme Court, Albany County. July 20, 2012 - The Supreme Court, Albany County transferred the proceeding to the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court. September 2012 – Protect and the Sierra Club filed a motion with the Appellate Division seeking disclosure of numerous documents and permission to depose what could have been more than 150 individuals including each APA board member, the Governor and members of his executive staff. November 21, 2012 – Protect and the Sierra Club filed a separate Article 78 in Warren County challenging the APA response to a Freedom of Information Law (Ò FOILÓ ) request made by Protect and the Sierra Club. November 29, 2012 Ð The Appellate Division denied the September motion for disclosure by Protect and the Sierra Club and remitted the proceeding to the Supreme Court, Albany County. March 19, 2013 Ð The Supreme Court, Albany granted ProtectÕ s motion for disclosure to a very limited extent and denied all other requests describing the overall motion as a Ò wide rang-
ing, unfocused and intrusive inquiryÓ . April 8, 2013 Ð The Supreme Court, Albany County once again transferred the amended Article 78 proceeding to the Appellate Division. May 16, 2013 Ð The Appellate Division granted Protect and the Sierra ClubÕ s motion to appeal from the Supreme CourtÕ s order denying discovery and consolidated the appeal with the amended Article 78 proceeding. July 3, 2014 - The Appellate Division, in a 5 to 0 decision, found Protect and the Sierra ClubÕ s contentions in its June 18, 2012 amended Article 78 petition to be without merit and dismissed the petition. The amended petition was 153 pages and alleged 29 causes of action claiming substantive and procedural violations of the APA Act, the Freshwater Wetlands Act, APA regulations and the State Administrative Procedures Act; all of which were found to be without merit. August 4, 2014 Ð Having lost in court, Protect and the Sierra Club filed a motion asking the Appellate Division for permission to appeal the April decision by the Appellate Division. September 16, 2014 Ð The Appellate Division, in a 5 to 0 decision, denied that permission to Protect and the Sierra Club. October 2014 – Protect and the Sierra Club filed a motion asking the Court of Appeals to allow them to appeal the April 2014 decision of the Appellate Division to the Court of Appeals. December 17, 2014 Ð The Court of Appeals denied permission to appeal to Protect and the Sierra Club. Every one of those actions taken by the preservationists cost the State, the community, the developers and your readers money. The direct costs were in the millions of dollars. It is hard to even estimate the damage done to the local communities, schools, businesses and residents by the delay. In all probability, every dollar spent by the preservationists on staff, lawyers and PR was deducted from some donorÕ s taxes, i.e., paid involuntarily by your readers. At the least, the preservationists should be required to reimburse the State of New York for its expenses. Michael D. Foxman Thomas C. Lawson

Regional broadband, sewer projects could compete for grant By Thom Randall
thom@denpubs.com ALBANY Ñ With an aim of jumpstarting the upstate economy, Gov. Andrew Cuomo has proposed a $1.5 billion economic stimulus Ñ three competitive awards of up to $500 million each, to fund initiatives proposed by three of the stateÕ s seven upstate regional economic development councils. Cuomo announced the economic revitalization competition Jan. 13 in Rochester, and it is subject to legislative approval. These awards are in addition to the stateÕ s ongoing program of grants to the councils, which in 2014 received a total of $700 million for economic development. Cuomo said that the successful awards would be granted to projects that would revitalize communities, strengthen critical infrastructure, bolster a regionÕ s workforce, grow tourism, or improve quality of life. Warren County Economic Development Corp. President Ed Bartholomew offered his thoughts this week about CuomoÕ s stimulus plan, and identified the initiatives that might be submitted for a $500 million competitive award. Ò Any proposal would need to have a transformative regional impact,Ó Bartholomew said. A top-priority project that could be proposed is to extend the reach of broadband access in Warren and Washington counties,
Bartholomew said. Another possibility could be to boost the regionÕ s involvement in technology, whether it be educational opportunities, research, or commercial implementation, he said. Nanotechnology might be a likely focus, as it has a growing presence in the region, he said. Another potential initiative would be a program to boost efforts to eradicate Asian Clams in Lake George, or other invasive species there or elsewhere in Warren County or the southern Adirondacks, he said. Another possible proposal for the $500 million is improvement of regional sewer infrastructure, which might involve connections between the existing sewer mains of Glens Falls, Moreau and Queensbury, perhaps with centralized sewer treatment, he said. Bartholomew said he understood from initial reports of the proposal that road and bridge reconstruction projects would not be eligible for the awards. Another potential project would be a collaborative initiative to boost tourism and hospitality efforts in Warren and Washington counties, focusing perhaps on the areaÕ s history Ñ or its arts, entertainment or recreational offerings, he said. Cuomo said in his presentation that the $500 million award concept would share similarities with the Buffalo Billion program which has been credited with creating and retaining about
2,000 jobs. That program included establishing the Buffalo HighTech Manufacturing and Innovation Hub, which involves a $1.7 billion public-private partnership to convert a vacant former manufacturing site into a campus for high technology manufacturing firms and green enterprises. Bartholomew said that the Capital Region council has a formidable challenge ahead in devising a regional proposal for a $500 million award, as the councilÕ s jurisdiction incorporates a half-dozen urban centers, including Glens Falls, Saratoga, Troy, Albany, and Schenectady and Hudson. The councilÕ s service region includes Warren, Washington, Saratoga, Rensselaer, Albany, Schenectady, Columbia and Greene counties. The plans for the economic jumpstart initiative call for the competition to be launched April 15. Proposals would be due July 1, with winners announced in this fall. Bartholomew said that area economic development leaders were already talking about projects that could potentially be proposed for a $500 million award. Those concepts with the highest merit and strongest chance of being chosen will be discussed and developed in the coming months, then presented to the full council, Bartholomew said. Ò This will be very competitive,Ó he said, noting that the Capital Region council would undoubtedly be taking advantage of the program if it is ratified by the state legislature. “Some very important, high-profile projects could benefit.”
Jessica Kane to instruct memoir-writing seminar By Thom Randall
thom@denpubs.com GLENS FALLS Ñ A memoir writing workshop instructed by Jessica Kane of Brant Lake is to be held in two sessions from noon to 3 p.m. Jan. 24 and Jan. 31 in the Lower Adirondack Regional Arts CouncilÕ s Lapham Gallery in downtown Glens Falls. Open to all skill levels, participants will choose an event from their personal history and through the writing workshop process, create a story or essay about how that event shaped their character or changed their life. The workshop is intended to help writers develop specific skills in telling their life stories. Participants will be sharing their work as they develop their craft and improve their writing skills. Kane is well-known and acclaimed for her offbeat, evocative works, whether itÕ s short stories, poetry, spoken word, dramatic productions or her songwriting. Ò Her work is clear, beautifully written and well-
observed,Ó author Paul Pines said in a review of Kane’s written work. “It flows with humor, and poignant feeling for the delicate longings and encounters of this world.Ó Kane is also known for her sculptures Ñ and several years ago she wrote and directed a play that was performed off-broadway. She has been published in several magazines. Early in her career in 2008, Kane wrote a series of personality profiles for the Adirondack Journal. The cost of the two sessions is $25 for LARAC members and $35 for non-members. Register by Jan. 21 by calling 798-1144 ext. 2 or see: www.larac.org. The Lapham Gallery is located at 7 Lapham Place in Glens Falls. AT RIGHT: Jessica Kane and her son Brautigan enjoy a moment recently at their Brant Lake home.

In brief Ice rink returns
LAKE GEORGE Ñ Members of the Lake George Volunteer Fire Company and Lake George Village will reinvent the communities ice-skating ring. In cooperation with the Lake George Central School District, Company members will create and maintain a skating rink on the high school’s lower athletic field. During the 1950Õ s and 1960Õ s, prior to the construction of the high school’s new gymnasium the Fire Company flooded the lower field and provided a huge skating area, in the natural bowl during the winter carnival and beyond. Sides of the field scope down to the rink and create a small sledding hill for youngsters as well. The Fire Company members, including the chairperson Dennis Mitchell, will utilize VillageÕ s equipment and an adjacent hydrant to supply water. The rink will be open 3 to 6 p.m. daily and 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on weekends. Only free-style skating will be permitted, no ice hockey. For questions call Dennis Mitchell 307-4087 or Mayor Robert Blais 668-5771.

While most items are for sale on a cash basis, Gun Shows cling to the old fashioned trade and barter way of doing business. Haggling for the best deal possible is both expected and accepted. Old and unwanted guns gladly purchased by our collectors who will pay top prices. Admission price for the day is $6 and children under 12, with parents, is free and $5 per day for senior citizens.

Cuomo proposes $1.66 billion property tax break By Thom Randall
thom@denpubs.com ALBANY Ñ Most homeowners and renters throughout the state will be receiving a substantial new tax break if a program announced last week by Gov. Andrew Cuomo is approved by the state legislature. As part of his Opportunity Agenda, Cuomo proposed a $1.66 billion tax credit initiative Jan 14 that would grant relief to homeowners and renters who spend a relatively large portion of their income towards property taxes. In this proposed program, New Yorkers who shoulder the heaviest tax burdens but have the lowest incomes would be helped the most. The credit, applied toward state income taxes, calls for reimbursing homeowners and renters a portion of what they pay in property taxes in excess of 6 percent of their income. The credit is to be phased in over four years. When fully implemented, the credit would be implemented
as follows: The most generous tax credit would be available to homeowners earning less than $75,000 per year. They would receive a credit equal to half of the sum they pay toward property taxes in excess of 6 percent of their income Ñ with a maximum of $2,000. Taxpayers earning more than $75,000 would be eligible for a credit according to a sliding scale. For those earning $75,000 to $150,000, the tax credit would reimburse 40 percent to 50 percent of the amount they pay towards property taxes. For those earning between $150,000 and $250,000, the credit would be 15 percent to 40 percent of their tax bill. The tax credit for renters would be based on an estimate that property taxes represent 13.75 percent of annual rent. According to the proposal, the maximum credit for renters who earn up to $150,000 annually Ñ would be $500. Officials in the Governor’s office have estimated that statewide, 1.3 million taxpayers could benefit, receiving an average credit of $956 each. CuomoÕ s aides surmise that 543,300 upstate taxpayers would be eligible for a tax credit averaging $781. In announcing the proposal, Gov. Cuomo said the plan would
provide vital help to homeowners and renters. Ò To restore economic opportunity statewide, we must continue to provide real tax relief to middle- and lower-income families struggling under the crushing weight of property taxes,Ó he said. While leading Democrats and liberal groups have applauded the proposal, Republican legislative officials and conservative groups have complained about it, calling for more widespread tax relief, as well as lifting state mandates that are burdening both taxpayers and local governments. State Senate Majority Leader Dean Skelos said legislative leaders would be discussing the proposal with the governor. As of Tuesday, plans called for the entire 2015 Executive Budget to be presented Jan. 21. Ò It is essential that any enacted property tax relief plan ensures that all middle-income families in every region of the state receive property tax relief,Ó Skelos said in a prepared statement. Various other conservative groups seeking tax rollbacks have said the real problem is excessive government spending, and the proposal merely shifts taxes to all residents Ñ and doesnÕ t provide relief to businesses.
Regulations for school lunches still tough to swallow National School Lunch Program limits sodium, pushes for whole grains By Maggie Morgan
maggie@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG Ñ Megan Beck, Food Service Director for Warrensburg Jr./Sr. High School, said though she is satisfied with the recent changes Congress plans to make to the school lunch regulations, there is still room for change. Congress recently released their spending bill for 2015 and among the things Obama must look over: the National School Lunch Program set in place by his wife Michelle. The proposal seeks to lift the strict constraints on sodium intake as well as schoolsÕ requirement to use whole wheat/whole grain pasta and breads. These tweeks could be a huge weight lifted off of Food Service DirectorsÕ backs, but there might still be a chip on their shoulder. Beck reported that the required fresh fruits
and vegetables are often found in the garbage shortly after the reach a studentÕ s tray, causing frustration in cafeteria workers across the country. More than anything else, Beck said the calorie caps that the government has placed on lunches make it difficult to plan menus that will satisfy students as well as forces cafeterias to eliminate some Ò whole foodsÓ to meet these requirements. Beck, a graduate of UVM where she received a degree in Nutrition, said she is an advocate of eating whole foods. She noted that some things labeled Ò no calorieÓ or Ò reduced fatÓ actually contain chemicals that donÕ t contribute to a balanced diet and serve no nutritional value. Because of the calorie caps that school districts are forced to meet, Beck said that lunch programs must substitute things like Ò low fat ranch dressingÓ to make sure kids arenÕ t consuming more than the cap calls for, something the Food Service Director does not agree with. In addition to serving these less than healthy menu items, Beck said that the standards arenÕ t necessarily tailored to the demographic of our regional schools. The majority of schools in
the region have schools that are divided into K-6 and 7-12, but the national standards break up calorie intake into K-5, 6-8, and 9-12. The regulations restrict students in their adolescent years, when teens are growing rapidly and constantly hungry, to a maximum of 850 calories in a lunch period. Though the number may seem high to some, we must consider those students who only get a well-balanced meal during school hours. In recent years, the free or reduced school lunch program is being used by a large percentage of students. Beck said that school lunch may be one of the only well-rounded, significant meals that a student eats during the day. Calorie caps leave some kids complaining that they are still hungry, and Beck said she doesnÕ t believe that the government should get to dictate how much food a student is allowed to consume. The regulations were set in place because of the obesity epidemic that has rooted itself in our country and more importantly our children. Though the detrimental effects of childhood obesity are a major cause for concern and an is-
sue that needs to be wiped out entirely, many people, including Beck, donÕ t think the problems are starting inside the school cafeteria. Beck said that a lot of health related practices and lifestyle routines begin at home. She reported that some bagged lunches that students pack themselves are much unhealthier than the ones prepared by the school. Beck also noted, as a sports coach, the amount of students participating in organized sports has decreased dramatically, which she also relates to what happens before and after the school bell rings. The Food Service Director thinks that the government should perhaps shift their priorities and points of study and hopefully will be able to find the real root of the problem. Ò Maybe there should be a study that looks at the weight and health of students who bring bagged lunches versus those who eat school lunches,Ó concluded Beck. With experience in the field, a degree solely dedicated to healthy eating, and a deep understanding of what students need to thrive-maybe we should be listening to those who
