CORRECTING THE RECORD
We made a mistake with our graduation coverage — and we’re sorry
By Thom Randall
LAKE GEORGE | A malfunctioning lock temporarily imprisoned a pre-schooler and the child’s father recently in a rest room at Charles Wood Park, Lake George Village officials have said. Village public works superintendent Dave Harrington said that due to a commercial-grade lock’s failure, the sturdy metal entrance door to the rest room couldn’t be opened after the duo entered the facility.

In other business discussed at a special village board meeting held in early June, the panel established a new policy that grants “comp time” to the village’s half-dozen or so salaried employees when they work over 40 hours in a week. If they work 8 hours over that threshold, they will earn one day off during the next 30 days only; accumulation of days off will not be allowed.

LAKE GEORGE | Last month, Glens Falls Supervisor Claudia Braymer called for the resignation of the executive director of the Lake Champlain-Lake George Regional Planning Board (LCLGRPB). On Friday, she suggested Executive Director Walter Young be replaced, and suggested a candidate for the job.

Both Braymer, who represents Glens Falls Ward 3 and Queensbury-at-large Supervisor Doug Beaty called for Young to resign last month. Numerous attempts to reach Young by telephone were unsuccessful. Approached at the county Economic Growth and Development Committee meeting last month, Young declined to comment on the call for his resignation, but said he felt the regional planning board and its loan advisory committee had been acting properly. In putting Switzer’s name forward, Braymer
