Comptroller offers North Country economic forecast

Local sales tax collection strong, but job creation remains sluggish, says Thomas DiNapoli in Plattsburgh By Pete DeMola EDITOR

PLATTSBURGH | The unemployment rate in the North Country is higher than the state average. Median household incomes are lower, and so is the labor participation rate. The population is shrinking. Job growth is largely frozen, and child poverty rates are higher. But property taxes are lower, sales tax collection is robust and there are a number of promising economic development and initiatives on the horizon. State Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli visited Plattsburgh last Friday

All-day Nightmare on Main Street returns

Halloween event has activities for kids, adults

with different activities for kids and adults. Leigh said they floated the idea last year at a North Creek Business Alliance meeting and got a good response, as well as a good turnout at the event. “It turned out pretty good,” Leigh said. “We had about 800 people. About 550 went through the haunted house.” Leigh said this year they are hoping to get over 1,000 people, and are taking steps to count how many people show up. A portion of this year’s event will take place at Tops Plaza. Leigh said they also contacted the school, and some school groups will be there trying to raise money for their own events or activities. Two of the events will include a “Bloody Balloon Pop” and “Scary-oke.” “Kate Hartley, the artist doing the mosaic

NORTH CREEK | Two friends, Brooke Leigh and Julie Wolfe, were trying to come up with some idea of what to do for Halloween last year, and the result was a “nightmare.” “She and I both love Halloween, and we’ve always had private parties for friends, and we said ‘Let’s do something.’” Leigh said. “This town doesn’t do anything for Halloween or other times. What came out of that discussion was the first Nightmare on Main Street, a downtown North Creek street festival that runs on Saturday, Oct. 28 from 11 a.m. to midnight

wall on Main Street, is going to set up some booths with a couple people to continue doing artwork on wall,” Leigh said. A fair amount of Main Street businesses are also excited about Nightmare on Main Street — including the Alpine Lodge, which is hosting a haunted walk at the lodge. Another haunted attraction is at the Copper Fox Tattoo shop. Leigh said the same location was used for a haunted mansion 20 or 30 years ago, and they have revived the haunted house there. Most of the attractions for Nightmare on Main Street are free, and the haunted house will cost only $1. The upcoming event will also feature a “house of oddities,” which one will have to see to understand. The Nightmare on Main Street events

begin with a Children’s Halloween Party at the Town of Johnsburg Library from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. From 1 to 3 p.m. there will be Trunk-or-Treat at the Johnsburg Central School sponsored by the Parent-Teacher Organization. Trick or treating will commence from 2 to 6 p.m. on Main Street. The Nightmare on Main Street Main Stage sponsored by Garnet Hill Lodge will be located across from the Tops parking lot, featuring live music and Shipra the Contortionist, running from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m. Live music includes Sara Pierson and local band Kringe Wurthy. Food will be provided by the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts, and some local restaurants will be open. Grown up activities will run from 7 to 10 p.m. at the Waterfront Park followed by a gathering at the Barking Spider, where the winners of the adult costume contest will be announced. ■

Graveyard walks, ‘Dinner with the Dead’ set

By Thom Randall STA FF W RITER

WARRENSBURG | Departed local war heroes will be portrayed this weekend as the Warrensburgh Historical Society holds two Graveyard Walks and its annual Dinner With the Dead. The three events feature actors and local history enthusiasts portraying noted townspeople from past eras who are buried in the Warrensburgh Cemetery. This 17th edition of the annual series features one of the walks to be held in daytime. Those attending will have the opportunity hear a halfdozen “ghosts” tell stories of their past lives, featuring the World War I experiences of soldiers Lee Orton, Joe Anselmo, Joseph Aiken and Geneva Kenyon. The Graveyard Walks will be conducted at 7 p.m. sharp on two consecutive days in the Warrensburgh Cemetery, which is 168 years old this year.

CHAMPLAIN SENIOR

The first walk is to be held Friday, Oct. 27, and the second, at 1 p.m. Saturday Oct. 28. The presentations are to be followed by a buffet of homemade desserts at the Warrensburgh Museum of Local History at 3754 Main St. in Warrensburg. Either event is offered for a price of $8 for adults, $5 for students. Reservations are required, as space is limited. To attend, phone Liz Sebald at 518-623-9367. For the evening walk, it is recommended that spectators wear warm clothing and carry flashlights. The cemetery is located on Hudson St. Extension.

DINNER WITH THE DEAD SCHEDULED

On Sunday Oct. 29 at 6 p.m., a full course “Dinner With The Dead” will be served at Lizzie Keays Restaurant at 89 River St. in Warrensburg. Diners will be visited between the meal’s courses by several of the historical re-enactors who performed in the graveyard walks. The sumptuous entree choices and prices are detailed on

State and local tax deduction emerges as flashpoint Congress weighing elimination of deduction for state income tax payments By Pete DeMola EDITOR

PLATTSBURGH | As Congress digs into tax reform this fall, the state and local tax deduction has left New York politicians rattled. The statute, known as SALT, allows taxpayers to write off payments to state and local governments from their federally taxable income. The U.S. Senate on Thursday voted 52-47 to repeal the measure that has been a part of the tax code since 1913. Sen. Shelley Moore Capito (R-W.Va.), who sponsored the budget resolution, said SALT “disproportionately benefits the wealthy and high-earners.” The tax break, say supporters, also forces low-tax states to subsidize higher tax states, which tend to lean Democratic. Eliminating the break would raise $1.3 trillion over 10 years and that money “would be better spent on relief for the middle-class, working class folks,” said Capito, according to the New York Post. But state and federal officials from New York say a repeal would amount to double taxation for those ill-equipped to stomach an increase. “If we lose that deductibility of state and local taxes, it’s really a form of double taxation,” said State Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli in Plattsburgh last week. “We don’t know the fine print yet. I just don’t trust this is going to come out in a way that will protect the hardworking people of New York.” Cuomo called the proposal a “gut punch to middle class families” and launched a full-court press against the measure with Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-NY) on Monday. The threat has generated a rare moment of political unity amongst Republicans and Democrats. Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-Willsboro) and other members of New York’s Republican Congressional delegation also oppose the repeal. While Stefanik supports overhauling the tax system, which hasn’t been reformed since 1986, she does not support

As Congress weighs tax reform, the potential elimination of the state and local tax deduction has generated a rare moment of political unity amongst Republicans and Democrats. Photo provided/Office of the Governor scrapping SALT. “Congresswoman Stefanik is concerned that the elimination of the state and local tax deduction will unfairly burden middle- and low-income families in our district and will be working with her colleagues in the New York delegation to address this in a final tax proposal,” said Tom Flanagin, a spokesman. Members of the state’s GOP delegation, including Stefanik, sent U.S. Secretary of Treasury Steve Mnuchin a letter in June asking him to reconsider repealing the measure. Eliminating the deduction, the coalition said, “would slow the growth of our economy and cost our state jobs.” The state has 3.2 million residents who claim the deduction, and New York’s itemizers make up primarily lowerand middle-income households. Eighty-five percent of those who claim the deduction earn less than $200,000 in annual income — most of them homeowners. The elimination would push some people into higher marginal tax brackets. Doing so would, said the delegation, reduce incentives to work and invest. “In fact, eliminating the SALT deduction would reduce longrun GDP by 0.4 percent and would lead to over 200,000 jobs lost.” New York, one of the most highly taxed states in the nation, generates more in tax dollars than it receives from

the federal government. “We are the number one donor state in the country, sending $48 billion more in tax dollars than we get back in federal spending,” DiNapoli said. The comptroller noted for every dollar state taxpayers send to Washington, D.C., they receive 84 cents back compared to a national average of $1.18. New York, he said, is a net loser. “You can see that number getting lower and lower,” he said. Legislation continues to be hammered out in House and Senate committees. Critical details, including thresholds for new tax brackets, have not yet been released. ■ *******************

» Comptroller Cont. from pg. 1 “Unemployment, relative to other regions in the state, is higher in the North Country,” said DiNapoli, calling it a “trend that is of some concern.” Essex County has the highest median household income in the region at $52,758; St. Lawrence is lowest at $44,700. Clinton ranks $49,930. Property owners in the six-county region pay lower property taxes than elsewhere in the state. The estimated median tax bill in Clinton County was $3,858 in 2015, less than half of the statewide average of $8,173. And housing is more affordable than elsewhere in the state. “Just over 25 percent of homeowners in the North Country spent over 30 percent of their income on housing,” said DiNapoli, referring to the federal threshold for affordability. Statewide, the number is 38 percent. “That’s a plus in terms of your region’s standards,” DiNapoli said.

CONCERNS AND CHALLENGES

The comptroller flagged an aging workforce and high unemployment as leading concerns. State unemployment numbers as a whole are rebounding, he said, but there’s significant variety between each of the 10 regions. At 50 percent, labor participation in the North Country is the lowest of any of region. “It suggests people have given up looking for jobs in certain cases,” DiNapoli. “And they just pull themselves out of the job market.” While net total job growth numbers are steady for the state as a whole, most of these new jobs are created in the five boroughs of New York City. Once surrounding counties like Suffolk and Westchester are factored in, the number reaches 90 percent of all new jobs statewide. Upstate job creation has stalled at .03 percent annually. “We really do have a different picture when we get north of the downstate counties, so

that’s when the dynamic in your region comes into play as well,” DiNapoli said. Another challenge is matching workers with the new jobs emerging in manufacturing sector.

‘UNIQUE ASSETS’

Despite the challenges, the comptroller said the North Country has much to be optimistic about, including regional economic development council efforts, the $10 million Downtown Revitalization Initiative for the City of Plattsburgh and $125 million state investment into Norsk Titanium, which the governor touted in a visit just days before. Efforts to reposition the region as transportation and aerospace cluster levering its proximity to Canada is an asset, he said. So are developments in alternative energy projects that aim to capitalize on the emerging green economy, he said. “All of this is very very exciting and creates great opportunities for the future,” he said. “The North Country has many advantages and enviable assets to build upon: world-class natural resources, spectacular natural environment, an impressive higher education network — and that becomes so key to an economic future.” Tourism is also a historical strength and classic growth area, he said.

STATEWIDE PICTURE

Zooming out, DiNapoli said while the state continues to recover from the Great Recession, there are some pending storm clouds. While North Country sales tax collection receipts are robust — the first half of the year’s growth of 4.5 percent surpassed the statewide average of 3.3 percent — the state’s most recent monthly cash report revealed tax revenues are $387 million below projections. “We’re falling short of the expectation when we’ve already lowered and reduced the initial projection,” DiNapoli said. Much of the deficit is a result of reduction in personal income tax collection, a key revenue source for the state.

State Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli addressed local business leaders in Plattsburgh on Oct. 20, 2017. Photo by Pete DeMola Changes in federal policy may also lead the state into choppy fiscal waters, including President Donald Trump’s executive order to stop making scheduled payments to insurance companies, part of his long-standing pledge to repeal “Obamacare.” “If the more extreme proposals for repealing would take effect, you could conservatively say over the next few years we could lose something like $6 billion in federal money, largely from the Medicaid program,” DiNapoli said. The state would then be forced to decide to make up for those funds and allow 2 million state residents to go uninsured. The comptroller was also wary about how the president’s expansive tax reform plan would impact state finances. The state and local tax deduction (SALT) permits taxpayers in New York to subtract payments to state and local governments from their federally taxable income. In a procedural vote, the U.S. Senate on Thursday voted 52-47 to repeal the statute. Without the SALT deduction, taxpayers would pay federal income taxes on the money they pay to state and local government — making it in effect, a form of double taxation, DiNapoli said.

“We don’t know the fine print yet,” DiNapoli said. “I just don’t trust this is going to come out in a way that will protect the hardworking people of New York.” DiNapoli said any deficits at the federal level will trickle down to the state. The loss of at $850 million in federal aid will allow the state budget director to pull the trigger on launching a contingency mechanism to make up for the shortfall. It’s not the ideal scenario, said DiNapoli, and will likely be manifested at the local level in cutbacks in aid to local governments and school districts. “We’re all going to come out as losers in that equation,” he said. Despite the gloomy outlook, DiNapoli expressed optimism that the state could work with the federal government on shoring up outdated infrastructure, including $27 billion for the state’s local bridges alone. “If Washington — starting with the president and members of Congress — are serious about dealing with infrastructure, I think that’d be a great opportunity for us to take advantage of a renewed partnership in this area with the federal government.” ■

Four seeking two board seats in Chestertown Field includes incumbent, challengers, write-in candidate By Christopher South STA FF W RITER

CHESTERTOWN | Four candidates are seeking two seats

up for election on the Chester Town Board. Incumbent councilwoman Karen DuRose is seeking to remain on the town board, while Al Muench, Larry Turcotte, and John Shrader are seeking either her seat or the

seat of Edna Wells, who has opted not to run for reelection. Shrader, whose name was eliminated from the ballot over discrepancies in his petitions, is waging a write in campaign. The four candidates in alphabetical order are:

KAREN DUROSE

AL MUENCH

Karen DuRose, 68, is retired from Finch Paper, LLC and the General Electric Company. She is filed with both the Republican and Independence Parties.

Al Muench, 74, retired as a program manager at the state Department of Environmental Conservation after 36 years of service. He then worked as a consultant to the US Environmental Protection Agency for five years. Muench and his wife, Linda, live near Friends Lake. He is a first time, independent candidate for the Chester Town Board.

DuRose has a degree in Data Processing and Accounting. She has 12 years experience serving on the Chester Town Board, and has attended numerous town-related seminars. She is serving on various committees, including highway, tourism, economic development, transfer station, library and zoning ordinance review committees. She has also served on the youth commission, parks and recreation, and cemetery committees. DuRose is currently a trustee on board of the Town of Chester Historical Society, and has served on the North Warren Central School District Board of Education. She is a merit badge counselor and Board of Review member for the Boy Scouts of America. DuRose said she has enhanced local recreational areas, including the town beach, Dynamite Hill and the Chester Challenge trail system. She said she started the boat washing station at Loon Lake, and has increased efficiency through solar and bio mass projects. She said the town has experienced growth in business, while she played a role in settling contracts and keeping property taxes reasonable.

His community service credentials include being a member of the Town of Chester Planning Board; a trustee and twice past president of the Chestertown Library Board of Trustees; Chestertown Rotary Club treasurer; and director of the Friends Lake Property Owners Association. His goals for being a member of the town board are to create a senior center and teen/ youth center; to update and implement the town’s comprehensive plan, ensure fair and effective enforcement of town zoning laws; plan for responsible economic development; encourage more public input at town board meetings. As far as the town budget, Muench said he is for, “more spending for senior and youth programs and beautification of our hamlets, and remain within the tax cap.”

“We need to continue to have money available in the budget for improvements to our roads and infrastructure. Occupancy (tax) money should continue to be used to create more recreation opportunities and bring tourists to town. Empty store fronts need to be filled and more local jobs made available,” DuRose said. ■

One little known fact about Al Muench: “I organized the sport of pickleball in Chestertown,” he said. “In three years, it has grown to an email list of over 100 players. On any given summer day, 20 to 30 players come into town and most shop or buy gas before returning home.” ■

JOHN SHAFER

LARRY TURCOTTE

John Shafer, 46, is an independent and write-in candidate for the Chester Town Board.

Larry Turcotte, 30, is a project manager at a local engineering firm. He is a member of the American Party.

Shafer has a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Vermont in Recreation Management with a focus on Sustainable Development. He is a partner at two local businesses: Tree House Post & Beam, which has 20 years experience as a custom design and build team, and Posh Primitive, a luxury outdoor adventure stay destination in Chestertown. He said he has always had a pragmatic outlook on government.

Turcotte said his qualifications for the position are being a lifelong resident of the Town of Chester: he is a graduate of the North Warren Central School and a graduate of Paul Smith College. He believes he has relevant work experience and has a strong desire to help the town reach its full potential.

“I would like to see an increased emphasis on creating new jobs through light economic development, and to promote existing businesses with local and regional marketing,” he said. He would like to see additional investment in tourism, including a welcome center at the Exit 25 interchange, directing visitors to Chestertown’s Main Street corridor. A little known fact about John Shrader: “I’m a Porsche race car driving instructor.” ■

If elected, Turcotte said, “I would like to better actively represent the people. I believe that seeing and talking to citizens out in the community and gathering their feedback will lead to a more effective policy for the town.” Turcotte said he supports maintaining the existing budget and respective tax rate. “I also want to assess large upcoming capital projects, cost projections and time-lines for review and planning. A little known fact about Larry Turcotte: “I enjoy home brewing beer and cider.” ■

Thoughts from Behind the Pressline

Taking a break

Sometimes you just need to check out for a short while, leaving everything behind in an effort By Dan Alexander to recharge the batteries and get a new • PUBLISHER • perspective. I know it’s far easier to type that than it is to actually do. It’s just not always possible to leave everything behind as though it doesn’t exist. Health, financial and dependency issues have long tethers, but many other nagging little annoyances can be put on the shelf if you allow them to be. This morning, I find myself waking up for the first day of a long-awaited vacation in Bradenton, Florida. Talk about the inability to leaving things behind, as I entered my temporary hometown for next couple of weeks, the city limits remind me I just entered BraDENTON. A certain reminder of my promise to Editor Pete DeMola to send in my weekly column while trying to forget everything else, associated with guiding Denton Publications and The Sun. The long drive down listening to the news reinforced my theme about “Taking a Break.” I do so wish I could turn off the constant bickering, resistance and feuding taking place in the halls of government as easily I switch channels over to an all music channel. If only those who guide our nation could “Take a Break” from what has become their standard practice of fighting everything and just let the small things slide off their backs and get focused on the people’s business once and for all But driving down the east coast gave me a reason for optimism. Yes, even optimism for the current state of politics. Touring through the pure beauty of our countryside, scenic mountains and valley foliage, seeing majestic cities all lit up at nighttime and sharing the roadway with mostly polite drivers all heading south, gives one pause for hope. Hope that we realize just how good we have it here in the good old USA and hope that we can find ways to quit arguing over small and large differences while finding ways to seek compromise on the really big issues so important to so many. Perhaps both sides can at least raise the white flag for a temporary ceasefire and we can all enjoy some peace and quiet. ■

From the Editorial Board

State should scale back funding for boutique projects A new economic profi le of the North Country contains few surprises. The six-county region lags behind the rest of the state in job creation, median household income and labor source involvement. It’s heavily reliant on tourism and the service economy. And job growth is largely flat, according to the state comptroller’s office. Not a big shocker. So it’s no surprise that the region is leaning on the state’s Regional Economic Development Council for heavy-duty firepower to fund private projects designed to offer ballast to a shaky economic landscape. The program allocates $800 million annually. Past big ticket items have included partial funds to restore Hotel Saranac, upgrade the Agri-Mark Manufacturing Facility in Chateaugay, construct the Adirondack Health Medical Fitness Center in Lake Placid and modernize the Plattsburgh International Airport. Economic development officials see these as more than just life preservers, but rather transformative projects designed to reshape the upstate economy by “clustering” industries around one another with the hope that one day they can stand on their own when paired with workforce development efforts. The manufacturing, aerospace and tourism sectors have been flagged as critical in the North Country. The North Country REDC has also bankrolled dozens of upgrades to help local companies stay competitive, including Bombardier, International Paper and Jeffords Steel. To date, the effort has invested nearly a halfbillion in the North Country alone since 2011 — including for local infrastructure projects in communities across the Adirondack Park. The strategy also includes offering companies like Norsk Titanium $125 million

in incentives. And the state has also staved off disasters by convincing companies who have been thinking about packing up and leaving — like Alcoa in St. Lawrence County — by offering millions in subsidies. Some dismiss the state’s strategy as corporate welfare. But the stark reality is that this carrot-and-stick approach is necessary to attract and keep these businesses in a place still reeling from massive job losses a decade ago. The NCREDC is right: These projects are not only transformative, but necessary to keep the local economy alive and the region as one that is vital and attractive to outside investors and transplants who will move here to sustain our dying communities. These companies employ hundreds, and their departure would devastate the regional economy. But funding boutique projects is another story. Last year, we were surprised to see a central Adirondack museum tapped to receive $125,000 to host a “Halloween inspired festival.” The only thing spooky about that is the price tag. This year, a start-up has put in for $705,384 to help construct a distillery in Crown Point — a project flagged as a priority for the regional council. The total project clocks in at $3.5 million. Total jobs created: Six. Is this really the best use of taxpayer dollars? We don’t think so. Other questionable efforts that have been funded over the years include boutique hotels, microbreweries, food co-ops and other projects where the return on investment to the broader community appears to be negligible. We understand that the projects are rigorously screened by the NCREDC, which contains a coalition of stakeholders from

Westport EMS desperately needs members

To the Editor: I am writing to alert Westport and Wadhams residents to the crippling personnel shortage threatening the town’s volunteer ambulance squad. We desperately need volunteers. If you live in Westport or Wadhams, please consider joining the squad. Call me at 518-962-4892 or text 518-524-5566 if you would like more information. I’d be happy to talk informally about what it’s like to do volunteer EMS work, whether as an EMT, a driver, or an attendant. We need all three to make it work. Unlike firefighting, which calls for younger bodies, EMS work is suitable for younger and older alike — including the recently retired who might be looking for meaningful, rewarding activity. We currently have just seven EMTs, most of whom work elsewhere on weekdays. Many weekdays only one of our volunteer

across the region who conceptualize and weigh each step of the process. And the funds are only disbursed upon project completion. Furthermore, one could make the argument — as the governor has done — that the current economic development system, for all of its flaws, is far more transparent and accountable than the former pork-laden culture that saw lawmakers largely funnel money to pet projects to their districts with little oversight. But a far better solution to funding boutique start-up enterprises is crowdfunding projects. The Adirondack North Country Association is working on spearheading a program called Ignite ADK, which officials are billing as a “local Kickstarter.” Projects will be funded through small, individual donations made by residents. This cuts out the middleman: Instead of small groups of business leaders deciding which projects to submit for state funding — projects which often lean toward more professionally-adept and vocal businesses with the right connections — residents are given a greater voice in local development. This could lead to a greater sense of responsibility to shop local when these projects are eventually funded. Another example is the microenterprise program that has seeded numerous businesses in the central Adirondacks over the past several years, giving small business owners a critical leg up. Albany should consider scaling back some of this spending. With a state budget deficit looming and changes at the federal level creating fiscal uncertainty amongst the working class, most of us would benefit from a rebate check — not the latest trendy startup enterprise. -The Sun Community News Editorial Board ■

EMTs is around to respond. If that one person can’t leave work or has an errand outside of town, we risk “dropping the call” — which means an agency from another town has to respond in our place. We have already dropped several calls this year. If that continues, eventually the state will shut us down and we will have no ambulance service. That means when you call 911 for a medical emergency, significantly more time will go by until someone from another town comes to your aid. It will threaten the well-being of everyone. Please don’t let it happen. Call me, text me, or look for our representatives at public events during our upcoming Westport Volunteer Ambulance Squad Membership Drive. Remember, you don’t need to be an EMT to ride with us. You just need to care. Colin Wells, Captain, Westport Ambulance Squad ■ » Letters Cont. on pg. 7

Concerned at anti-Semitic comments in Schroon

To the Editor: In what universe is an anti-Semitic comment “obviously” an “attempt at humor”? I’m not familiar with all of the details of the Stewart’s expansion scenario, but I’m pretty sure I recognize bigotry. Wow is really all I can say. Looks like there’s work to be done in Schroon Lake and it’s not all construction. To the Editor, As Election Day nears and we have the opportunity to vote for the candidate of our choice, I think it is important in our decision making process that we evaluate each candidate for the qualities that he or she brings forth to our community. I believe we all want honesty, sincerity, representation, and above all else knowledge of the position for which they are seeking election. That is why I feel it is important to re-elect Jo A Smith as the Town Clerk. Jo Ann Smith has been the Town Clerk for the past four years, and prior to her election she served five years as the Deputy to the former Town Clerk. As Deputy, she not only assisted the former Town Clerk, but she also had the opportunity to learn the duties of the Town Clerk position prior to her election. During times of the former Town Clerks absence, she was able to handle the role without interruption to the community and Town Board staff. Upon her election, she had complete knowledge of what was expected of her, was previously trained how to do it, and has since improved the roles of her duties. Specifically, she has digitized many of the records that are kept, and continues to work on getting all of the Towns records in electronic format as well as hard copy. She has also made paying Town and County taxes easier by installing the electronic payment system. These are just a few of the things that she has attributed to her job and community. In addition, Jo Ann has attended numerous educational classes to help improve her position, as well as to stay current with her role with Warren County and other Town Offices and Officials. I believe that the knowledge she acquired as Deputy played a key role in her success in taking over as the Town Clerk. She loves her job as the Town Clerk, loves working with the public, and has profound skills in her position. When you go to the polls this November, please re-elect Jo A Smith for Town Clerk because she is the most qualified person for the job and she cares about her community.

WISH I COULD HAVE BEEN THERE

Recently on TV, that modern invention that dominates all of our lives, there has been a mini-series entitled “Outlander.” In it, the lady heroine has the wonderful ability to leave her modern life in our present day and zip back in time a hundred or more years in the past in search of her lost love. Unfortunately it is never disclosed just how she does it. I wish that I knew because there are a couple of places, back in the far reaches of history, that I would love to have been there as a spectator.

A GLIMPSE OF THE PAST

It was just 609 years ago, on Sunday, Sept. 16, 1408, that Sigrid Bjornsdottir wed Thorstein Olafsson at Fjord Hvalsey (Whale Island) in Greenland. In my imagination I have envisioned many times just what an interesting spectacle that surely would have been. Were they Norse settlers, probably Vikings? Did they grow grapes in that cold climate and did they have wine at their wedding? How great it would be to have one of H.G. Well’s time machines. If only Albert Einstein had only lived just a little longer, maybe we could have actually been there.

A ROUSING POLITICAL SPEECH

The old Glens Falls Messenger newspaper, on Sept. 17, 1856, told of a fiery, rousing speech, which lasted two hours, given by A. Oakley Hall, who spoke at the GOP Republican rally meeting in Warrensburg. Our esteemed early settler, Peletiah Richards was the GOP president of the party and it was reported that 2,000 people were present in the audience. Back in those days every gentleman was said to have carried a discreet “hip flask” in his back pocket and

Congrats to Ti football team

To the Editor: A huge congratulations to the 2017 Ticonderoga football team for their remarkable accomplishment this season. Fred Shaw, Ticonderoga ■ To the Editor, Vote for Andrea Hogan I met Andrea in 2008 when she became the director of the Adirondack Community Outreach. I had just taken the position of President of the Board and was way out of my league. Andreas quiet competence reassured me, and, I have to say, she made me look good. Andrea has a way with people. She manages a very large group from all walks of life at the Outeach. She sees the needs of the people and is very concerned with doing her best for them. She not only manages the office and volunteer staff but she is known to deliver emergency food baskets and meet with people that are having difficulties. She also does not take credit for her work which is why there are many folks that do not know her. She tends to be the force behind the scenes. She puts out the fires and gives credit to others. It has taken her a long time to decide that it is best for the town and its residents to have her run for Supervisor. She has the time in her life right now and the special gifts to make things work. If elected, I believe that you will see community happen in our town. She will inspire people to join together for the good of our town and make some things happen. Due to her knowledge of those who struggle to make ends meet in the community, she realizes how important economic growth is to North Creek. We need jobs. To have this happen, infrastructure needs to happen. I believe she will work very well with town employees and the community members to get everyone on the same page and working for the good of all concerned. Taking on this job is huge. You need someone that knows how to communicate with all types of people. She has enthusiasm and a willingness to tackle this job. She wants to see the Town of Johnsburg prosper for the good of its residents. Andrea has a passion for this community and the people in it. Judy Brown Paid for by Judy Brown

CORRECTION | The article “Two vie

for highway superintendent in Johnsburg” (Oct. 21) contained an error. The quote, “In the nine years as highway superintendent, I have paved 14 miles of road” was erroneously attributed to highway superintendent candidate Fred Comstock. The quote should have been attributed to current Johnsburg Superintendent of Highways Dan Hitchcock, who is seeking re-election. ■

Turning Back the Pages politics were not as refined and genteel as they were today before our colorful current president, Donald Trump, came along to liven up political rhetoric. Peletiah was born in Connecticut in 1786 and never reached Warrensburg until 1802 when he was sixteen years old. At one time he owned practically the whole town, more than a hundred acres between Main Street and Hackensack Mountain. His beautiful home, modeled after Thomas Jefferson’s home at Monticello, today is only an empty parking lot at the north end of Tops grocery store. Peletiah’s name is lost in town history and I think I would be hard pressed to find a student at the Warrensburg School who had ever heard of him. There is, however, a Tiffany-quality stained glass window which was installed in his memory at the First Presbyterian Church. He died in 1870. As far as the hip flask is concerned, it should be noted that Peletiah Richards understood politics and owned a distillery just south of town in North Caldwell.

SPEAKING OF POLITICS

Just 161 years ago, on October 21, 1856, world famous Congregationalist preacher Henry Ward Beecher, 43, spoke for three hours at a Republican meeting in Fort Edward. An estimated 12,000 to 15,000 people were privileged to hear his oration. During his speech he defended temperance which was against “Demon Rum” and railed against the black sin of slavery. He was only 64 years old when he died in New York City, probably bitterly hating the fact that God had given him so little time to carry on his passionate work and to aid in reconstructing his beloved country after the great war that had nearly decimated it. A man would have to have been passionate indeed to speak for three hours.

Obituaries Hilda Grunblatt

KINGSTON | Hilda Grunblatt 95, of Kingston, died peacefully on Tuesday, Oct. 17, 2017. Born in Brooklyn, she was the daughter of the late Samuel & Anna Robson Waterman. Hilda was educated in New York City schools and graduated from Brooklyn College in 1943 with a degree in biology. She worked in a defense plant during WWII then taught junior high school in New York City. In 1948 she married Dr. Jacques Grunblatt and together they looked for a life beyond New York City that would offer new opportunities and purpose. That opportunity came in the form of an advertisement by an Adirondack garnet mine seeking a community doctor. Hilda arrived in the hamlet of North Creek with her husband in 1950 just in time for the final log drive down the Hudson River. Over the next 40 years, they negotiated the adventurous life of a country doctor with Hilda raising a family and manning the office. This was a life where payment might be received as poultry and phone calls came at all hours of the day or night. On many a winter weekend, the family living room became an orthopedic clinic where skiers waited their turn for X-rays and treatment from the doctor and a cup of coffee and bite to eat from Hilda. During this time she also founded a Headstart program, was active on the local parent-teacher association and served on the board of the Adirondack Lakes Center for the Arts in Blue Mountain Lake. One of her proudest achievements was the founding of the Town of Johnsburg Library in North Creek. Soon after the death of her husband in 1989, Hilda moved to Glens Falls. She was active with Temple Beth-El and maintained long standing friendships. In 2014 Hilda moved to Kingston to be nearer to family. Hilda is survived by three children, Ellen Grunblatt and her husband Stephen Bien of Jay, Maine; Jesse Grunblatt and his wife, Elsa Aegerter of Anchorage, Alaska and Mark Grunblatt and his wife Andrea Grunblatt of Kingston; one stepson, Jaime Cabezas Garcia and wife Mari Cruz Carrasco Cabezas of Madrid, Spain; her brother, Daniel Waterman and his wife, Mudite Waterman of Boynton Beach, Florida, as well as five grandchildren, Ethan, Shula, Samuel, Jenni and Eva, three step-grandchildren, Jaime, Consuela and Mari Cruz. Seven step-great-grandchildren and numerous nieces and nephews also survive. She was predeceased by her brother Stephen Waterman. A funeral service was held on Thursday, Oct. 19 at the Simpson-Gaus Funeral Home with Rabbi Yael Romer of Congregation Emanuel officiating. Interment followed in Temple Beth El Cemetery in Glens Falls. Memorial contributions in Hilda’s name may be made to the Town of Johnsburg Library or the ACLU. Online condolences may be left for the family of Hilda by visiting simpsongaus.com. ■

One hundred years ago – October, 1917 WOMAN SUFFRAGE PARTY EXPANDS

The Woman Suffrage party opened their Warren County headquarters in Glens Falls, in the store formerly occupied by Rugg & Moren, corner of Glen and Warren streets. The rooms are in charge of Miss Milla Fish, but Mrs. C.J. Nordstrom, of Diamond Point, is present most of the time and under her vigorous supervision no part of the work is at any time permitted to lag. Miss Mary Park London of Alabama is also helping in the Warren County campaign. The large windows of the building on the two streets are filled with bulletins of the Suffrage work. A vigorous campaign will be waged with meetings in all parts of the county and addresses by a competent corps of speakers and an outdoor meeting will be held Saturday evening, Oct. 16, 1917 in Glens Falls. Illustrated lectures in moving picture theaters throughout Warren County have been conducted. In other news, a Chestertown suffrage meeting was held recently under the guidance of Miss Colvin, of New Jersey and Miss London, of Alabama, at the residence of Mrs. William H. Kittenbach, to discuss the approaching fall political campaign. (Update: The dynamic Caroline Emily Brereton Nordstrom was born June 11, 1863, the daughter of Thomas John Brereton Nordstrom and Amelia M. Denny, at the height of the Civil War and she never lost her fighting spirit. She was the wife of Dr. Carl Nordstrom. Throughout her lifetime, failure was never an option once she made up her mind to the rightfulness of her cause and she deeply inspired everyone around her. She was honored recently, on Sept. 23, 2017, a hundred years later, at her grave in Queensbury’s Pine View Cemetery during the walking tour given by the Chapman Museum.) ■ Readers are welcome to contact Adirondack Journal/Sun correspondent Jean Hadden at jhadden1@nycap.rr.comor 623-2210.

Horicon board approves septic system Town not considering adding Bean Road to network By Christopher South STA FF W RITER

HORICON | The Horicon Town Board approved plans for a new septic system on East Shore Road and set a public hearing for another. The town board has heard at least five variance applications for residential septic systems since June. The board approved the Hughes application for the installation of two holding tanks

at 248 E. Shore Rd. Zoning officer Jim Steen told the board he was satisfied with the plans submitted by engineer Tom Hutchins, and had received no written comments from the public. There were no spoken comments from the public at the Oct. 19 town board meeting. “We’ve been facing a number of these,” Councilman Bob Olson said. Olson said installing septic systems in the vicinity of Brant Lake or neighboring wells was a “very serious” matter, but added that the applicant was making the situation better by installing storage tanks. “This person will forever have to pay to pump them out,” Olson said.

NO PLANS TO ADD ROAD

Supervisor Matt Simpson said the new system would not be material detrimental to public health.

The town board does not intend to not to add a 900-foot section of Bean Road to the Highway Department’s road network. The town received a letter from Kevin Reeth following his appearance at the September town board meeting. Reeth indicated he is trying to sell a property on Bean Road, but since the road is for seasonal use only, and is not plowed in the winter, he cannot sell the property. Olson said he understands the property owner’s problem, but he believes the cost to the town would be considerable. “There is no compelling reason to do it,” he said. ■

PUBLIC HEARING ON VARIANCE SCHEDULED

The board decided the Centofante application for a new septic system at 211 E. Shore Road was complete, and would have a public hearing at the Tuesday, Nov. 14 board meeting. The Centofante application includes a variance for an absorption bed within 100 feet of the high water mark of the lake. Engineer Harold Berger said an issue of distance being less than 100 feet from adjacent wells had been resolved. The new septic system is designed for a five bedroom house, although a four bedroom house is planned.

Reconnecting the Ausable River

It’s all happening this month: concerts, plays, exhibit openings and more. Here’s a look at what’s on tap in the North Country. On Nov. 11 the Courthouse Gallery By Elizabeth Izzo in Lake George will open its new • COLUMNIST • exhibit, “Open Immediately,” featuring the collage work of Sarah Nicole Phillips. “Open Immediately” showcases Phillips’ intricate, detailed work — her craftsmanship transforming security envelopes we see every day into works of art. An opening reception is slated for 4-6 p.m. The exhibit will run through Dec. 15. To learn more about this exhibit, visit lakegeorgearts.org or call 518-668-2616. “Vanishing Point,” a new exhibit featuring mixedmedia nature images by Suzanne Langelier-Lebeda, will open at the Adirondack Artists Guild in Saranac Lake on Nov. 3. The exhibit runs through Nov. 28. Gem Radio Theater will perform “Horrors You Can Hear,” a Halloween-themed production, on Oct. 28 at the Indian Lake Theater. In “Horrors You Can Hear,” the group will re-imagine three classic radio thrillers for a one-of-a-kind play. For more information, contact Robin Jay at gemradiotheatre@gmail.com. “The Drowsy Chaperone,” billed as a musical within a comedy, is slated to be performed at the Hartman Theater on campus at SUNY Plattsburgh on Nov. 2-4. Tickets are $15 per person, $12 for students and SUNY Plattsburgh staff. Performance times and tickets are available at plattsburgh.universitytickets.com. Laura Cortese and her Dance Cards, featuring cellist Valerie Thompson, fiddler Jenna Moynihan and bassist Natalie Bohrn, will perform at BluSeed Studios in Saranac Lake on Wednesday, Nov. 8. Cortese, Thompson, Moynihan and Bohrn will take the stage at 7:30 p.m. Doors open at 7 p.m. Tickets are $18. For more information, visit bluseedstudios.org. On Oct. 28, Denver-based fusion trio Cycles will perform a free show at the Monopole Bar in downtown Plattsburgh. Adrian Aardvark and Doomf**k will perform there on Oct. 31. This special Halloween performance will be augmented by a midnight costume contest. The band will take the stage at 10 p.m. ■

As a schooled ecologist/conservationist, I view the world through a biologist’s eye. I try to put all of the ecological pieces together. I like to know how someBy Rich Redman thing works before I try to fix it, my • COLUMNIST • old mechanic day’s mentality, I guess. Whether it’s a farm, forest or river system, I like to know how it works! As any farmer, forester, logger, naturalist, photographer, fishermen or hunter knows, the more you know about your quarry, the better your chances for success. For fly fishing, I see a both a biologic and a geomorphic view. My eyes scope out a river’s biological and chemical aspects of nutrients, insect life, riverine habitat and trout habitat. Geologically and hydrodynamicly, I look at its flow and velocity, its substrate, gradient, width and depth ratios, riﬄes, runs and pools, and its connectivity to itself and tributaries. This is where things get exciting for us science and fishing geeks. If you have ever fished the Ausable River, you probably know the Quarry Dam area; it’s just downstream of the intersection of the River Road and Route 86. The dam is an old concrete structure that was built on ledge rock that formed a chute. The dam was probably used to power a mill or for sending logs down river during the early Adirondack logging days. It’s a small dam and not much is known about its history. The dam is located on state Forest land. The lip of the dam is about 3 or 4 feet above the main channel so it holds back both sediment and water creating a pool behind it. Pools are great for trout. But due to its greater-than-natural stream width and poor channel grade, sandy sediments build up, covering spawning gravel. The river’s unnatural over width character above the dam, tends to warm up the water. Heated water holds less oxygen. Too high a water

temperature is lethal to trout, so in many streams trout can migrate to a cooler water temperature refuge area. A dam like the Quarry restricts up stream movement. Bottom line: The dam restricts fish passage and movement upstream, holds back sediment and allows the water to warm up behind the dam. Remember what I said earlier about putting all the ecological pieces together? Well, temperature, sediment loading, spawning gravels and connectivity, are some of the pieces fisheries people look at, and guess what? They don’t fit into this dam puzzle. So, what are we going to do about it? Solution: As a card-carrying Trout Unlimited member, I am happy to say that Trout Unlimited’s two chapters in this area, the Tri-Lakes, and Lake Champlain Chapter along with the Ausable River Association and U.S. Fish and Wildlife have partnered up and are applying for grants to take the dam out. As of today, our local Trout Unlimited (TU) folks have been approved for a grant through the TU Embrace a Stream Program. We are awaiting word on other grants at this time. We have been soliciting bids with each qualified contractor describing how they will do the demolition and removal procedure. Once state DEC approves the final deconstruction/removal method, the funding is secured, and contracts signed, the contractors can begin to remove the dam. At completion, we will be on our way to “reconnect” the Ausable River back to itself. This is a small project, and only a small piece of the large puzzle that needs to be done on the river, but hopefully it will open doors to achieve some much needed restoration work upstream along the river road. If one piece of the ecological puzzle is out of whack, it affects all the others, basic ecology. Trout Unlimited’s mission is to reconnect, restore and protect cold water fisheries. This project is one piece of our puzzle that will be completed, reconnection of a river! ■

Three candidates seeking two seats on the Johnsburg Board Incumbent Nightingale running as an independent By Christopher South STA FF W RITER

JOHNSBURG | The Johnsburg Town Board election has

a bit of a twist this time around, with incumbent Councilwoman Katie Nightingale running as an independent after she was beat out by Laurie Prescott Arnheiter in the Sept.

KATHARINE NIGHTINGALE (INCUMBENT)

12 primary election. The other incumbent in the race, Councilman Arnold Stevens, was the top vote-getter in the election. ■

ARNOLD STEVENS (INCUMBENT)

Katharine “Katie” Nightingale, 53, works as a hydrogeologist, is an incumbent member of the town board, and will be on the ballot as an independent candidate listed under the party line “Johnsburg Hamlets United.” Nightingale has been a member of the town board since January 2012. A Johnsburg resident for 25 years, she has worked for several local businesses, as well as served/is serving on a variety of not-for-profit or volunteer committees and boards, including the Upper Hudson River Bluegrass Festival, Hudson River White Water Derby, the Adirondack Community Outreach Center, and the Town of Johnsburg Library. “Because of my involvement with community and business, I have developed an understanding of both economic and community issues in the town, allowing me to make balanced decisions benefiting the Town of Johnsburg. I am available, proactive, and have the knowledge to resolve issues with open ears and compassion,” Nightingale said. If re-elected, Nightingale said she plans to continue her involvement with both the business and organizational groups in town to remain current with future issues and needs of both the community and economic development. She said she will continue development of solar power on town property to reduce electrical costs as well as become a greener community. Asked about the proposed contractual change between Gore Mountain/ORDA and including the use of public land and potential economic impact on Johnsburg/North Creek, Nightingale said, “The relationship that has been established over the years with Gore Mountain/ORDA is an important part of our community and I look forward to continued growth. The more successful Gore is with summer activities, the more benefits to the town, such as employment opportunities and business growth. I do feel that amending the existing 2006 Agreement between ORDA and the Town of Johnsburg to expand into summer operations at the Ski Bowl Park should include financial compensation to the town. However, it is possible that a comprehensive list of in-kind services could be established that would satisfy the necessary compensation to the town.” ■

Master Gardener training available

Arnold Stevens, 65, is an incumbent councilman running for re-election as a Republican, and is the pastor of two local United Methodist churches. He said his qualifications for office can best be summed up in the following statement: “I believe the best qualification that I have for my service as a town board member for our town is my ability to work well with others. I am a team player,” Stevens said. Working together, the town board has accomplished such projects as: securing a source of road maintenance material that will last for many years into the future, established a highly respected town library, and returned swimming opportunities to the town beach area. “If elected, I will, to the best of my ability, continue to work to serve the needs and expectations of all our town residents,” Stevens said. “At this time, our town is in the process of entering into a new agreement with ORDA for their use of an underutilized part of the Ski Bowl Park,” Stevens said. “Before our town board will sign and accept this any agreement with ORDA, this agreement will work out to be a win-win situation for both our town and ORDA. At the time of an acceptable agreement between our town and ORDA, I will not consider the agreement to be a “trade-off” of our town’s resources.” One little known fact about Arnold Stevens: “Our email address reflects my amateur radio call sign KC2FLI.” ■

LAURIE PRESCOTT ARNHEITER Laurie Prescott Arnheiter, who said her “age is not relevant,” was selected for the ballot as a Republican and as an independent candidate under the banner, “Vision for the Future.” She is self-employed in her own businesses, and has attended Education Hudson Valley Community College and ACC continuing education.

She is also currently the owner of three businesses in the Town of Johnsburg: the Hudson River Trading Company (21 years), Interface Communications (27 years), and Hudson River Town Home Rentals (22 years). She has also been heavily involved in economic development issues and public service. for the past three decades. “I believe we need to grow this community, increase sustainable businesses, increase non-seasonal jobs, encourage affordable housing, and repopulate the community with an age-balanced population to sustain growth for the future improve marketing and public relations and create a strategic plan for the Town of Johnsburg for the next 50 years,” Arnheiter said.

Johnsburg clerk challenged by ﬁrst time candidate Incumbent seeks reelection, while challenger has private experience By Christopher South STA FF W RITER

JOHNSBURG| In the Town of Johns-

burg, town clerk Jo A. Smith is citing her nine years of experience in seeking another full term, while her challenger, Kathleen C. Lorah is banking on experience in the private sector to qualify her for office. ■

JO A. SMITH

Jo A. Smith, 49, is the incumbent town clerk, who also serves as the town registrar and town historian. A lifelong resident, she is on the ballot as a Republican and Rose Party candidate.

KATHLEEN C. LORAH

Smith became the town clerk in 2014, and has been historian since 2009. She previously served as deputy town clerk from 2009 to 2013, and was deputy registrar from 2010 to 2013. Smith was the Planning and Zoning secretary from 2012 to 2013. Smith is a graduate of the Johnsburg Central School, the BOCES Secretarial and Accounting program, and holds a New York State realty license, and has Business Automated Services clerks program certification.

Lorah believes she is qualified to hold the position of town clerk after having been a supervisor for a customer service department, an office manager, and for the past 20 years, a freelance proofreader/editor for several large advertising firms.

During her tenure as the town’s clerk, Smith said, she as streamlined filing, professionalized general office atmosphere, shared services with supervisor’s office leading to greater efficiencies with cost savings, digitalizing town minutes, performed website and email set up, created a mailing list, and has held after hours appointments for marriage licenses. Smith is a marriage official, issues hunting licenses, does electronic death registration (EDRS) and keeps vital records. She said she has initiated on-line tax payment option, compiled a Local Laws book and ordinance book, helped set up E-Cycle. Asked where she would like to see more/less money spent in th town budget, Smith said, “I would like to see the town hall updated or upgraded to represent our town in the 21st century instead of the dated version it is.”

Katy Cornwall Lorah, appearing on the ballot as Kathleen C. Lorah, currently works at Rite Aid in North Creek, and is running for office for the first time. She will be on both the Democratic Party and the Johnsburg Hamlets United line.

“If elected, I want to be available to help people by making their business with the clerk as easy and pleasant for them as possible,” Lorah said. Lorah said she would like to see the Town of Johnsburg focus on attracting businesses to create both more tourism and more year-round employment for residents. A little known fact about Katy Lorah: “When I was a child, I had a pet skunk.” ■

A little known fact about Jo A. Smith: As the town historian, she does a lot of genealogy work, including documenting cemeteries, and even gets referrals from other towns for people seeking genealogical information. ■

Members of Northern Needles in Long Lake gathered together in August to make 30 tactile lap quilts for the residents of local nursing homes. Made mostly from donated fabrics, the quilts are purposely a wild mix of colors and textures to provide visual and tactile stimulation. The finished quilts will be distributed to Mercy Living Center in Tupper Lake and the Adirondack Tri-County Nursing Home and Rehab Center in North Creek. Photo provided

Meet the candidates: Warrensburg Town Board Five candidates are running in two town council races By Thom Randall STA FF W RITER

WARRENSBURG | The Warrensburg Town Council has two competitive races on Nov. 7: Th ree candidates are running for two four-year

expired terms. Two candidates are running to fill the unexpired twoyear term following the retirement of former Councilwoman Joyce Reed. We submitted the following questionnaires to the candidates. Their answers are below. ■

VOTE FOR ONE: UNEXPIRED TWO-YEAR TERM

BILL MAHAR

Age: 55 Ballot party line: Democrat, independent Occupation: Information Technology for Warren County

Qualiﬁcations: I am a lifelong student of history and political science. I have a B.S. degree in Computer and Information Systems and have been a public servant for 12 years working in information technology for Warren County. This experience has provided insight into every facet of local government operations. I am not a political insider. I am free in my opinions and judgments, beholden to no one with a proven willingness to speak my mind to those in power. What I hope to accomplish if elected: It is essential to good government that it is derived from a crosssection of the residents. Without a representative cross-section, it is inevitable that the interests of the politically privileged few will predominate and prevail in debate and decisions. In Warrensburg, democracy has devolved to the point where the political life of the local government is controlled by a small group, few in number. In fact, I am of the opinion that democracy has become illusory in town with this small number deciding for many decades who even appears on the ballot. If elected, my primary goal will be to include every viewpoint. Little known fact about me: My favorite bathroom book is “Meditations” by Marcus Aurelius (George Long’s 1862 translation). ■

DONNE-LYNN WINSLOW (INCUMBENT) Age: 69 Ballot party line: Republican Occupation: Retired teacher

Qualiﬁcations: I am a lifelong resident with an appreciation and understanding of past and present Warrensburg. I have served on Warrensburg School Board, the Warrensburg Zoning Board of Appeals and recently appointed to Warrensburg Town Board. Accomplishments: I consider myself a good listener and problem solver, and will continue to work with the board to solve community concerns. A little known fact about me: I was born in Washington, D.C. at Walter Reed hospital. ■

Minerva oﬃcials faulted in state audit for employee embezzlement Report by state Comptroller’s Oﬃce reveals lack of oversight created conditions that allowed for theft by former clerk to supervisor By Pete DeMola EDITOR

MINERVA | The state Comptroller’s Office has determined a lack of financial controls and oversight by the town supervisor and board allowed a former clerk to the supervisor to steal thousands from municipal coffers over a multi-year period. “This allowed the clerk to control all aspects of the payroll process and to overpay herself without detection,” wrote Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli in an audit released earlier this month. Jordan Green stole over $30,000, including funneling almost $9,000 to her own bank account from the town’s payroll account. Green, who worked for the town from 2010 until her resignation in early-2015, also failed to withhold funds from her health insurance and retirement contributions. The audit also revealed Green did not deposit $10,004 in collections from campsite rentals and transfer station fees amongst various department remittances and other miscellaneous revenues, money that remains unaccounted for. “The clerk commingled collections when preparing and making deposits, making it difficult to trace the identified cash shortage to particular collections,” read the report. The town board also failed to perform an annual audit of the clerk and tax collector in 2012 and 2013. “A board member told us that town officials were unaware an annual audit was required,” the report read. “Without an audit of these records, the board cannot ensure that all supervisor and tax collector

funds were properly accounted for and deposited in a timely manner. Had the board performed an audit of the supervisor’s records, it could have detected the $10,000 shortage identified in this report.” Green also overpaid herself $13,940 for unauthorized direct deposits and inappropriate withholdings for retirement and health insurance, and she falsely paid herself for 482 hours of leave valued at $8,235. The report recommended over a dozen corrective measures, including establishing comprehensive payroll processing, segregating payroll duties and comparing time cards and sheets to payroll registers. Recommendations also included tightening up oversight of time off requests and record-keeping. Originally intended as a payroll and cash recipients audit, the scope of the investigation was widened to cover the duration of Green’s five-year tenure after investigators discovered irregularities. Green pleaded guilty to grand larceny, official misconduct and record tampering and was sentenced to 1 1/3 to 4 years in state prison last month. She was also ordered to pay restitution. Other town officials received a clean bill of health because they submitted remittances in check form. “We found no discrepancies with remittances from the tax collector, justice and town clerk totaling $2,323,359,” the report read. Minerva Supervisor Steve McNally served as a town councilman before taking over the top slot in January 2014. The board had early questions about Green’s monthly reports and opted to bring in an outside accountant for training and corrective action, he said. The accountant’s work eventually sparked the state comptroller’s involvement. “After our exit interview with the auditors, and after we showed them what has been done as far as checks and balances and additional procedures, I believe that our system meets the standards that any municipal accounting should employ,” McNally wrote in his official response to the report. ■

1--

VOTE FOR TWO: UNEXPIRED FOUR-YEAR TERMS --I

JOHN ALEXANDER (INCUMBENT)

Age: 58 Ballot party line: Republican Occupation: Funeral director, deputy town supervisor

Qualiﬁcations: I’ve served the Warrensburg community for 12 years as town councilman, including tenure as deputy town supervisor, and as an active member of the Warrensburg School Board. For 35 years, I’ve operated the local funeral home. Also, I’m currently president of the Warrensburg Cemetery Association. Accomplishments: I’ve worked with the town board on a broad range of accomplishments. Our town has everything our residents need — a new health center, new grocery store close by, new parks, updated water and waste water facilities, new uses for Warren County Fairgrounds, a new firehouse garage, an updated property maintenance code, and completed beautification projects throughout the hamlet. I intend to continue making improvements and pursuing initiatives that prove fruitful for our residents and boost their quality of life while continuing the keep the town budget under the state tax cap. A little known fact about me: I’m a grandfather four times over — and I cherish the time spent with each of my grandkids. ■

BRYAN ROUNDS (INCUMBENT)

Age: 50 Occupation: Owner, Rounds Paving & Excavating Ballot party line: Republican

Qualiﬁcations: I served for several years on the Warrensburg Planning Board as well as the Warrensburg Board of Assessment Review. As a current town board member, I serve as chairman of the Highway Committee where I assist in the procurement of new highway maintenance equipment. I am well-versed in both zoning and tax assessment issues. Accomplishments in oﬃce: I was first elected to a very divided town board. I pledged to be a voice of reason and have worked along with the other board members as well as the supervisor for the betterment of our town. We have overseen the construction of the new health center, the restoration of our iconic bandstand, an improved water infrastructure, miles of new sidewalks and improvements to our town parks. We raised the income threshold for the senior tax exemption, allowing more of our elderly citizens to be eligible for this tax relief. All were accomplished with very minimal increases to the town tax rate. Little-known fact about me: I have a penchant for finding equitable solutions so that our elderly residents can afford to live in their own homes with dignity and security. ■

RICH LARKIN

Age: 63 Ballot party line: Democratic: Endorsed by Warren County Democratic Committee, Working Families Party Occupation: Verizon technician, retired Qualiﬁcations: As a retiree, I will draw on a lifetime of experience and learning which includes experience in the construction fields; grocery markets; tourism and food service; sales, marketing and management; plus communications technology installation and repair. I believe my ability to transfer experience and knowledge from past experiences to new challenges sets me apart from others. I am a graduate of Bolton Central and SUNY Morrisville, where as freshman class president, I managed a large budget. I have enjoyed my association with the CWA union in various capacities and have served as vice president of the Greater Glens Falls Central Labor Council for multiple terms. Also, I’ve served on the Warren County Democratic Committee Executive Board. What I hope to accomplish if elected: No matter how good things are, there is always room for improvement. Warrensburg should strive to bring in more businesses and jobs for our very qualified talent — which will lead to a lower school tax rate and raise the quality of life here. We need to be a destination as opposed to a “drive through” town. Warrensburg has too many empty storefronts on Main Street. We have a beautiful community, and I have seen what other communities have done throughout New England, like Manchester Vt., to get people out of their car and shopping. I will strive to research every issue before deciding my vote. I will be diligent in listening to the voters and their wishes. Little known fact about me: I have not been successful at everything I have attempted in life. However, I have learned from all my life experiences and keep getting up and trying again no matter what. ■

WarEagles soar over Coxsackie-Athens By Thom Randall STA FF W RITER

LAKE GEORGE | The WarEagles athletes proved their ability and determination Oct. 20 as their football team defeated talented Coxsackie-Athens by a score of 54-18. With the win, the Warrensburg-Bolton football team is 7-1 overall and 3-1 in their conference division. The coaches of the Lake George/Hadley-Luzerne squad were surprised with the extent of their team’s victory, although they knew before the game their athletes were stoked with enthusiasm — they had put on their pads a half hour early, head coach Jeff Bennett said. “Going into the game we believed it was going to be a struggle — Coxsackie looked really good on game films,” he said. “So we must have played really well.” Bennett added that his team’s repeated offensive attacks early in the game took him off-guard. “I looked at the scoreboard late in the first quarter, and it was already 20-0 — it was crazy,” he said, noting his team

racked up no less than 445 yards on the ground over the entire game. Addison Kelly stepped up his effort against Coxsackie, lighting up the scoreboard with three touchdowns resulting from five carries, including one for 76 yards, Bennett said. “Addison was just electric,” he said. Also, the extensive depth of the WarEagles’ ball-carrying talent was evident on Friday. Jimmy Kelleher followed Kelly in ground-gaining with 75 yards over four plays, one of which was a 34-yard touchdown run. Teammates Clay Moody and Tanner DeMarsh started the offensive onslaught with the first two touchdowns, 20 and 40 yards respectively. Moody gained 35 yards total over four plays; and DeMarsh gained 47 yards over just two plays. Austyn O’Neil and Logan Duers also ran for touchdowns, tallying rushing totals of 52 yards and 34 yards respectively. Quarterback Michael Johnson also ran on three plays for 36 yards. Also contributing in the rushing attack were

Isaiah Burnett with 19 yards over four plays and Cameron Duers with a single 10-yard run. Bennett praised his offensive line for being “very physical” and communicating well, which cleared the way for the WarEagles’ running backs. Also, Bennett credited his defensive squad for containing Coxsackie. Moody, who just returned to the team roster after being sidelined for injuries, was key to the defense, as well as Johhnson, and the two top tacklers, Kelleher and Matt Burrows. Next up for the WarEagles is the storied Whitehall team — unbeatable in the 1930s, and regaining this prominence in recent years. Set for 6 p.m. Friday Oct. 27, this crossover away game with the Railroaders set is meaningful for both teams as each has a 4-4 win-loss tally, and only one of the two squads will finish the season with a winning record. “This will be a big rivalry game — Whitehall has really big players and they’re very physical,” Bennett said. “We’ll have a good, tough game on Friday night.” ■

Soccer skirmish stretches into extra stanza

By Thom Randall STA FF W RITER

BOLTON LANDING | In a suspenseful battle that extended into an overtime clash, Bolton-Warrensburg Girls Soccer Team edged out Mayfield 4-3 in a Class C game played Oct. 21 on the Eagles’ home field.

With 32 minutes on the clock in the first half, Maria Baker of Bolton-Warrensburg scored first off an assist by Gabrielle Mowery, who scored a goal three minutes later on an assist by Leah Monroe, closing out the half with Eagles holding a 2-0 lead. Mayfield answered back with one goal midway into the second half and the other

with five minutes left in the game, putting local fans on edge. Bolton-Warrensburg retaliated soon after with a goal by Monroe on an assist by Hope Boland. Mayfield, however, closed out regulation play with a goal that forced the game into overtime. Three minutes into the extra period, War-

rensburg prevailed on a shot by Mowery, however, securing the win. Bolton Warrensburg goaltender Ashley Connery tallied 12 saves in the victory. Her counterpart for Mayfield, Sydney Benton, recorded 13 saves. The victory over Mayfield advanced BoltonWarrensburg’s season record to 11-2-1. ■

First rail cars arrive in Adirondacks Cars arrive in Minerva as green groups continue assault on storage plan By Christopher South and Pete DeMola STA FF W RITER /EDITOR

MINERVA | The first rail cars arrived in the central Adirondacks last week, slowly snaking their way along the Boreas River before eventually stopping on the track north of North Club Woods Road in Minerva. The two counties, where up to 2,000 unused rail cars will be stored indefinitely,

are opposed to the plan. The Essex County Board of Supervisors narrowly voted Oct. 2 to oppose the storage of cars on unused sections of the track owned by Saratoga & North Creek Railway (SNCR) in Minerva and Newcomb. Minerva Supervisor Steve McNally said he was disappointed by the proposal. “The people of Minerva are very proud of their community and work diligently to preserve our history as well as to maintain our properties,” McNally said in a statement. McNally said he was concerned about the potential environmental impacts and effect on shipping aggregate from the Tahawus Mine. “There are many groups and individuals who work tirelessly to keep the Adirondack Park as the jewel that it is, but I cannot see

As many as 2,000 rail cars may be stored in the central Adirondacks on unused rail sidings. Environmental groups are staunchly against the measure. Photo provided

how storing these cars goes along with this vision,” McNally said. SNCR President Ed Ellis told Warren County lawmakers last week he objected to the characterization of the tanker cars as emptied oil tankers that still contain oil residue. Ellis compared the cars to using a plastic container to bring his wife’s chili to work for lunch. “Once it is washed and in my desk, you can’t say it still contains chili,” Ellis said. Ellis estimated the total number of cars that could be stored here at 2,000. Acting Warren County Administrator Kevin Geraghty told his colleagues storage isn’t ideal, and would rather see the railway hauling freight. “I’m not saying it is the best use, but this gentleman purchased the tracks,” Geraghty said. “They are his, and this is something he needs to do to make money. I don’t think it’s the best use, but it’s about the principle.” The railway has struggled financially in recent years, and has said running passenger trains alone is not enough to stay economically viable. Travis Whitehead of Queensbury said SNCR had less than 1,000 passengers from the beginning of the year through September, which he said translated to four passengers per day. “That’s not doing any good for the towns,” he said. SNCR General Manager Justin Gonyo said the railway pays seven employees an average of $20 per hour. While Gonyo said he understands the environmental concerns, local government also needs to protect jobs and economic development. Essex County Board of Supervisors Chairman Randy Preston voted against his county’s resolution, citing jurisdictional issues.

“I voted to allow because I don’t think it’s our place telling companies that own it what to do with the property,” Preston said, “and I know that’s what a lot of other supervisors are feeling.” Essex County Vice Chairman Shaun Gillilland said the resolution is purely symbolic. “It’s under federal jurisdiction,” he said of the railway. “We can offer our opinion, but it has no regulatory effect.” SNCR has been the target of criticism from environmental groups who have likened the storage plan to the creation of a junkyard in one of the world’s most sensitive ecological habitats.

Adirondack Council and Protect the Adirondacks have called for state intervention. “This is a major moment in the history of the Adirondack Park and the forever wild Forest Preserve, yet state leaders are AWOL,” said Peter Bauer, executive director of Protect the Adirondacks, in a statement. “This runs counter to everything that the Adirondack Park is all about and must be stopped.” The Adirondack Park Agency has asked the Chicago-based firm to submit a jurisdictional inquiry, and the state Department of Environmental Conservation has said they will “closely evaluate” any storage proposal. The first cars arrived in Minerva on Oct. 17 along a section of siding track along the banks of the Boreas River, according to Protect, who counted 28 of the units. “I doubt Ellis will eat what can be scraped from the insides of those cars,” said Bauer, referring to the railway owner’s comments. “But if he wants to do that, we will meet him on the tracks with a spoon.” ■

Horicon Town Board swats black fly treatment contract Board votes 3-2 against spending $20k per year to kill ﬂies By Christopher South STA FF W RITER

HORICON | The Horicon Town Board voted 3-2 on Oct. 19 to reject a resolution offered by Councilman Robert Olson to enter into a contract for the treatment of black flies in 2017. At its Sept. 21 meeting, the board heard from Kathy Vanselow from Bioconservation, Inc., who gave the town the option to pay $19,900 for one year of treating black flies or $19,500 per year for three years. At the Oct. 19 meeting, Olson made a motion to enter into a three-year contract with Bioconservation, Inc., a move opposed by Councilman Ken Higgins.

“I agree, just like we will always have milfoil,” Olson said. The town spends money for the removal of milfoil in Brant Lake. “Has anybody died from a black fly bite?” Higgins asked. Smith said no one had died, but said the black flies were “miserable.” “So was the rain,” Higgins said. The spring and early summer saw a lot of rainfall in the Adirondack region. Higgins also said he doubted Vanselow had the workers to cover the treatment area she indicated on a map, and the town would be essentially taking Vanselow’s word that she would do what she was contracted to do. “How are we going to follow up?” Smith asked. “You aren’t,” Higgins said. Bacillus thuringiensis israeliensis, commonly known as BTI, is a process of releasing bacteria into the natural waterways. The bacteria moves downstream where it is eaten by the black fly larvae and the bacteria kill the larvae. ■

“It’s a waste of money for a problem that lasts three weeks,” Higgins said. “We had three complaints (this year); it’s part of life in the Adirondacks.” Both Olson and Councilwoman Silvia Smith said they had received complaints other than three directed to Town Hall, but Smith and Councilman Frank Hill joined Higgins in opposing the resolution. Only Supervisor Matt Simpson voted for Olson’s resolution. “I don’t know how we’re going to tell if (Bioconservation) did a good job,” Hill said. When asked at the meeting last month how the town could know her treatments would work, Vanselow said the dead fly larvae are visible in the water. Higgins opposed spending nearly $60,000 over three years to kill flies when there are other projects the town has put off because of the cost, including putting a new roof on Horicon Town Hall. “There are other places where they have to sway black flies,” Higgins said. “We’ll always have black flies.

Three seeking two seats in Newcomb

Incumbents Bott, Hai defending seats against Lana Fennessy

NEWCOMB | Three candidates are running for two contested seats on the Newcomb Town Council. ■

By Pete DeMola EDITOR

DONALD BOTT (INCUMBENT)

LANA A. FENNESSY

Age: 60 Occupation: Retired, town historian Party: Democrat

Occupation: Retired electric company worker Party affiliation: Republican

and I really feel we need a small store and gas station,” Fennessy said. “I would also like to get some small businesses into town. “I would like to see young people come to town. It’s a beautiful town.” Fennessy said retaining a vibrant school system is important. “I do not want to see our school system be diminished. Newcomb Central has much, much to offer. It’s an excellent school system and I would hate to see us close or merge.”

Qualifications: This marks the first time the lifelong Newcomb resident has run for public office. She currently serves as the Newcomb Town Historian, and had previously served as assistant historian for 15 years. Fennessy, who has a B.A. in Biology, previously worked at Sunmount Developmental Center in Tupper Lake; at the Huntington Wildlife Forest at SUNY-ESF, and as a home health care aide for Essex County. For the past 39 years, she has also worked as an AVON sales representative. “I would put my heart and soul into this job because I would like to make a difference in the community of Newcomb,” she said. “As I say, I’m the hometown girl.”

Qualifications: Bott served on the council for seven years. What are the community’s most pressing issues? Bott said he’s in favor of more recreational access on state land, a measure he said will boost the economy — including the growth of more businesses and industry. “We’re in trouble here in the Adirondack Park,” he said. “It’s the economy. There’s virtually nothing here anymore.” Bott cited the loss of a gas station and diner as chief concerns. The daily newspaper also converted to delivery through the U.S. Postal Service in recent years.

A little-known fact “When you live in Newcomb, your life is an open book. I’ve lived here for 60 years, so everyone knows everything about me.” Robin DeLoria is also running uncontested for town supervisor; Mary Pound for town clerk; Mark Yandon for highway superintendent; Karen Darrah for tax collector and Jennifer Fifield for assessor.

Most pressing issues Jobs and retaining young people is a chief concern. “I would like try to get a small convenience mart here,

What are your goals if re-elected? “The water system is just about down,” Bott said, citing a source change from the river to wells. “I try to take care of the people in town and take care of all of their needs.” ■

Age: 50 Occupation: Associate Director, SUNY-ESF Northern Forest Institute Party affiliation: Democratic (“But I consider myself a centrist”) Qualifications: Hai has served on the town board for one-four year term. What are the community’s most pressing issues? Hai said he can also draw on experience garnered from served on the town planning board, including the special projects committees. Volunteer activities include membership in the Lions Club, where he served as president for two years, and volunteering at the annual Teddy Roosevelt Weekend since relocating to the area in 2003. “I’ve gained a lot of insight into what makes Newcomb as a community unique,” Hai said. Highlights of tenure: Hai said he’s proud of working with former supervisors George Canon and Wes Miga, who he called “two very effective leaders.” Additional highlights include working on the town’s capital improvement plans for infrastructure projects, as well as being part of a team that developed and refined the town’s branding and marketing concepts. Most pressing issues: The community must “protect and preserve” its assets while taking steps to ensure it can economically thrive in the future, Hai said. Tied hand-in-hand with a sustainable economy is maintaining a sustainable population. “We know the Adirondacks for a region has a higher average age than just about everywhere else in New York State,” Hai said. The graying is caused by two factors: The increase in second-homeowners paired with young people seeking jobs elsewhere. Many want to return, but there are no jobs here, Hai said. “We need to figure out how to provide that opportunity,” he said. “That’s something we need to work on.” Goals if re-elected: If re-elected, Hai said he’d like to prioritize immediate marketing efforts for the Town of Newcomb and the Five Towns area, home to Boreas Ponds, the new state acquisition that is awaiting classification by the state. Hai said he’s committed to working with the state to look at recreational assets and provide “as much sensible recreational access as possible.” Locking in community planning and infrastructure funds is also important. Hai cited the importance of teamwork in running the town: “I’m committed to working on a team and being an asset to that team,” he said. What’s a little-known fact about you? Hai was part of a team that cooked a meal for thenpresidential candidate George H.W. Bush in Houston on Super Tuesday 1988. “There was four of us that cooked dinner for the four of them,” Hai said, referring to the future president; his wife, Barbara, and their company. “It was a pretty fun dinner. We had a selection of game and it was accompanied by a variety of other dishes, a multi-course dinner.” ■

‘Grammie’ crochets afghans for military veterans Cleaning house turned into a way to honor vets By Christopher South STA FF W RITER

ADIRONDACK | A little over four years ago, Edna Trumble’s husband of 33 years, Ande died, and she found herself alone. What’s more, her television went out shortly thereafter, and she found herself without a distraction. As a result, she started cleaning clutter out of the house, and in the process she found a cache of yarn. Trumble had been working at fiber arts since she was a child, being encouraged by her grandmother to start knitting and crocheting. “My grandmother thought it was something I should learn. You learned these things because expected of you, I guess,” she said. Trumble said first husband was an Air Force veteran, and second husband, Ande (which is “Edna” spelled backwards) Bauridel, was declared F-4 and turned down for the Navy. “That always bothered him a great deal. He was very patriotic,” Trumble said.

Trumble said she actually enjoyed knitting more than crocheting, but when she found the yarn she decided to start crocheting afghans. Not really sure what she could do with them, she contacted the local chamber of commerce and was directed to Joanne Ellsworth, commander of American Legion Post 964 in Chestertown. “She delivered some afghans, and has always given us some a couple times per year,” Ellsworth said. Ellsworth said the first time Trumble gave her some afghans she wanted them to go to older veterans or those in veterans homes. She said they got them to veterans in Albany and Syracuse, but Trumble really wanted North Warren area veterans to get them. “We started with the elderly veterans in nursing home, then started to pass them out to veterans in the community,” Ellsworth said. “They don’t have to be a member of the (American) Legion or the VFW.” Once she used the yarn she had, Trumble said she created her own patterns, using a red, white, and blue theme. One pattern is an American flag that features 20 stars in a field of blue with red and white stripes. The other pattern has red and white stripes with a blue border bedecked with stars. Trumble, 78, estimated that since her husband passed away in September 2013, she has made over 100 afghans. Each one comes with a slip of paper indicating Trumble’s thanks for the veteran’s service, and is only signed, “Grammie,” which is what her grandchildren call her. She never wished to get

any recognition for what she was doing, she said. “I didn’t do this to get their thanks - it was to thank the veterans who have done so much for this country,” she said, “but the word is getting out.” Trumble, an Adirondack resident, said veterans have been finding her and expressing appreciation. She said she has even received requests from American Legion posts asking for afghans. Ellsworth said Trumble made one that was raffled at their USO-style Show last month. Trumble said she would continue making the afghans but doesn’t know for how long. She said arthritis is making it difficult, but she would like to remain active. “I wish there was something else I could do for the veterans,” she said.
