Schumer raises hopes for village sewer plant money Senator offers support in visit to Lake George By Thom Randall CORRESPONDENT
LAKE GEORGE | With wind whipping up waves on Lake George in the background Tuesday, U.S. Sen. Chuck Schumer pledged his support in obtaining grant money to build a new sewer treatment plant that is expected to help keep the lake’s water pure. » Schumer Cont. on pg. 2
In a press conference held beside Lake George Tuesday, U.S. Sen. Chuck Schumer said he’d be urging state officials to commit more grant money to the pending construction of a new wastewater treatment plant, considering that local residents would otherwise be bearing a heavy debt burden. State Sen. Betty Little and Mayor Robert Blais (right) listen to Schumer’s observations about how important the purity of Lake George is to the region’s economy as well as to the entire state.

Sewer fees in Lake George expected to double Official: Caldwell district bills to jump in 2020 By Thom Randall
Lake George Town and Village Planning Director Dan Barusch presented a financial analysis to the town board indicating that beginning in 2020, Caldwell sewer district homeowners and businesses would face bills about 2.31 times their current sewer charges, or a 131 percent increase.
‘STAGGERING’
CORRESPONDENT
LAKE GEORGE | The pending construction of Lake George’s new $22 million wastewater treatment plant is likely to cause a drastic increase in sewer fees for property owners in the Caldwell sewer district if no additional grant funds are secured for the project, according to figures discussed by town officials April 8.
Barusch noted that the Caldwell sewer district property owners collectively paid about $281,000 annually for sewage disposal in 2018, and that is expected to increase to $671,117 by 2020. “This to me is staggering,” town board member Dan Hurley said after Barusch presented the figures. » Sewer Cont. on pg. 2
An app in the woods STA FF W RITER
NEWCOMB | Downtown Newcomb, as downtowns are traditionally thought of, does not exist. It’s three miles along Route 28N of a house here and a business there, with a park or a government building scattered along the way. This, town officials say, creates the wrongful impression that there’s no reason to stay in Newcomb and no place to find a bed or a bite if you wanted to. What the town needed to do was clear up misconceptions and put all their assets in one centralized, easy to access location. Now, there’s an app for that. The Experience Newcomb app, available at Apple and Google app stores, or by snapping a photo of the app’s QR code, will provide tourists and locals alike with a

CHESTERTOWN | Ten years ago this fall, Jeremiah Monroe of Brant Lake — and a graduate of North Warren High School — sacrificed his life for his nation. Monroe, a combat engineer in the U.S. Army, was killed Sept. 17, 2009, by a roadside bomb while on patrol in Kandahar, Afghanistan. Each year since then, his friends, family members and area citizens have paid tribute to Monroe by participating in an annual charity golf tournament named after him. » Donations sought Cont. on pg. 2

wealth of information about the community, including local events, as well as places to stay, shop, eat, paddle, hike and have fun. There are plans to link websites of the other four communities of the Five Towns in the east/ central Adirondacks — Indian Lake, Minerva, North Hudson and Long Lake — that are partnering to bring awareness of activities in their areas. “We’re trying to help people find where they’re going more easily,” said Laurinda Minke, a graphic artist who helped develop Experience Newcomb. “People think there’s no place to stay, but in summer we actually have 10 places to stay.” Once people stay, they will find plenty to do, Newcomb Supervisor Robin DeLoria said. Travelers might be familiar with the Great Camp Santanoni — perhaps Newcomb’s most identifiable asset — and the app will point people to other, lesser known gems. “They might have been to Santanoni, but they don’t know how to get to Lake Henderson,” DeLoria said. “With the app you can click on the (icon) and Google Maps will open and tell you exactly how to get there.” » Newcomb Cont. on pg. 2
