STATE, FEDERAL LAWMAKERS PUSH TO COMBAT LYME DISEASE New York faces “ticking time bomb” as authorities has left them financially ruined.

And the disease is only expected to spread.

Over 90 percent of confirmed cases nationwide are being reported from New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Connecticut.

Now state and federal health agencies are scrambling to hatch an effective response.

Activist to trek from Boreas to Ray Brook Tyler Socash aims to send message to Adirondack Park Agency

KEENE | Environmental activists often attend Adirondack Park Agency (APA) meetings.

But most don’t hike 25 miles through rugged mountainous terrain to get there.

Tyler Socash aims send a singular message to the state agency by walking from the Boreas Ponds Tract to their Ray Brook headquarters on Nov. 16: “Overwhelming public support” exists for a Wilderness classification for the entire Boreas Ponds Tract, he said.

State agencies oppose rail car plan Railway responds, calling for state investment

By Pete DeMola EDITOR

MINERVA | Twenty-five rail cars were brought through North River last week, bringing the total to about 50.

The out-of-service cars will be stored indefinitely on the Sanford Lake Railway in Minerva by Iowa Pacific Holdings.

While state agencies previously expressed alarm over the storage plan, the Adirondack Park Agency (APA) and state Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) have now issued full-throated objections.

“The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) and Adirondack Park Agency are opposed to the storage of rail cars on these tracks inside the Adirondack Park,” said Keith McKeever, an APA spokesman. “We are seriously concerned about potential environmental impacts and are evaluating all legal and regulatory options at our disposal to ensure the environment and the public are protected.”

Opposition continues to mount from a coalition of green groups, localities and state agencies who argue the storage is a blight on the Adirondacks, creating “junkyards” in the one of the world’s foremost ecological habitats.

The groups are also concerned about the environmental impacts because at least some of the cars are the same models as those used to transport hazardous materials, including ethanol and crude oil.

“I just don’t see any upside,” said Newcomb Supervisor Wes Miga.

CUOMO AGAINST

Iowa Pacific has said up to 2,000 cars could ultimately be stored on the tracks as a way to shore up revenue for their ailing operation.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo last month denounced the Chicago-based firm’s plans.

“It is unsightly, it is out of character with the Adirondacks,” Cuomo said in Glens Falls. “Nobody goes to the Adirondacks to look at old trains, they go there to look at the natural beauty.”

Cuomo each summer hosts the Adirondack Challenge at Gore Mountain in North Creek, where the railway has previously stored cars along the Hudson River, many of them speckled with graffiti and openly visible to passing state officials and dignitaries.

The governor acknowledged Saratoga & North Creek Railway (SNCR), a subsidiary of Iowa Pacific, owns the tracks.

But questions remain, he said, as to the state’s legal rights to oppose the plan.

“We are going to do everything we can do to stop the owner from storing the trains on those tracks,” Cuomo said.

Iowa Pacific has said the placement of the cars into storage will be done in full compliance with the provisions of the license and operating agreement between the railway, the » Boreas Cont. from pg. 1 Socash is a member of Adirondack Wilderness Advocates (AWA), a grassroots environmental advocacy group.

With him Socash will be carrying over 1,000 letters generated by the group’s recent letter-writing campaign urging the APA to utilize the most stringent environmental safeguards while classifying the parcel.

Nearly a year after the conclusion of the public hearing process designed to collect input on how the 20,758-acre tract in Newcomb and North Hudson should be classified, a decision remains elusive.

A broad coalition of groups have entered the fray, all of whom agree opening a new portal to the southern High Peaks has the potential to be transformative.

But they disagree on how much recreational access should be allowed, sparring primarily over motorized usage.

The APA has offered four proposals, each containing a varying ratio of Wilderness, the most restrictive category, and Wild Forest, the least restrictive.

AWA has endorsed none of them, and is

Tank cars make their way to the Sanford Lake Railway in Minerva on Oct. 30. town and the county, and that states don’t have jurisdiction over railroad operations.

The APA asked the railway to submit a jurisdictional inquiry in September, but they have not yet done so, McKeever said.

The DEC told The Sun in September they would “closely evaluate any proposal for the storage of railcars, but has not received any such proposal.”

Asked on Nov. 1 if Iowa Pacific had yet submitted a proposal, a DEC spokesperson referred to their previous statement and declined to elaborate.

David Michaud, an attorney for Iowa Pacific, did not directly respond to an email asking about the proposal.

But SNCR President Ed Ellis responded and said that the railway objects to the characterization of the cars as “junk,” and all cars have been cleaned prior to their relocation.

“Putting out wrong and misleading information is apparently the plan of the folks who want to rip up the only track in this part of the Adirondacks to have one more unmaintainable trail,” Ellis said in a lengthy statement. “For example, the ‘junkyard’ cars have 20-30 years of useful life left, and the owner spent over $3,500 per car getting them properly cleaned and certified. Not junk.”

Ellis said the units are “well-hidden.”

“If we fill up the track we own, it will take up 0.000004 percent of the park,” he wrote. “The cars can only be found off-trail, hiking through the wilderness, unless you trespass on our tracks.”

Ellis also included a two-minute video of him playing the guitar and singing a jaunty folk song, an apparent response to a protest song written by local songwriter Dan Berggren.

SNCR bore the multi-million dollar cost of saving and reopening the long-dormant line from North Creek to Tahawus in order to ship aggregate from the shuttered mine.

But the parties have failed to negotiate a competitive rate for shipping the materials to downstate construction sites, Ellis wrote in a letter to Cuomo in 2015, and the railway has instead been forced to rely on passenger service to generate revenue.

calling for the entire tract to be classified as Wilderness, and the entire seven-mile length of Gulf Brook Road closed.

Socash, 31, is still mapping out his route for the trek.

Early plans see the outdoor educator starting at Blue Ridge Road and walking the length of Gulf Brook Road to gain access to the tract. He’ll pass through Ragged Mountain, Andrews Brook, LaBier Flow, Boreas Pond and White Lily Pond before exiting, where the Northville Placid-Trail will take him to Averyville Road towards Ray Brook.

Altogether, it’s a 40 mile journey.

Socash, of Keene, has ample experience: He recently completed the Te Araroa Trail in New Zealand, and the Appalachian Trail, efforts that also fueled his strong belief that open space is a rare commodity that is becoming increasingly rare on a global level.

“Traveling elsewhere, you realize how important what we have in the Blue Line is,” he said. “Boreas Ponds can be a crown jewel that gets protected right here in New York state.”

But upon reaching Ray Brook, Socash will not be met with APA board members deep

“Storage of empty freight rail equipment provides a financial bridge that will enable the railway to continue its efforts with local and state, public agency and private sector stakeholders in building a sustainable, long term service franchise in this unique and beautiful part of the Empire State,” Ellis wrote.

BATTLE PENDING

While the railway has addressed Warren County supervisors, Miga said the railway hasn’t been as forthcoming with their Essex County counterparts.

“The fact that the rail company hasn’t approached the towns of Minerva, Newcomb and Essex County makes it suspect in my mind,” Miga said.

The railway first floated storage plans in 2015, but revoked the concept following public uproar.

At the time, the Adirondack Council sketched out what they felt was a legal case for nixing the storage plan, citing DEC statutes governing what constitutes solid waste.

John Sheehan, an Adirondack Council spokesman, said the group was researching if the federal Surface Transportation Board could legally declare the railway abandoned, a measure they hope would torpedo the plan.

“We believe the Surface Transportation Board may be the most productive route,” Sheehan said. “Whether a state official files the petition or another individual makes no difference to us as long as we get proper authorities involved.”

Sheehan also questioned the cleanliness of the cars.

“It has been represented to the county that these have been cleaned,” Sheehan said. “We don’t know if that’s the case. Just an inch at the bottom of a cylinder can be dozens of gallons of oil — even hundreds.”

Some groups have called for the tracks to be ripped up — including Protect the Adirondacks, which has been closely monitoring developments. But Ellis said state, county and federal authorities should instead invest in the line if they object to the cars.

“Time is of the essence as not nearly all of the 2,000 cars have arrived,” he said. ■

in Boreas-related discussion: The classification issue is not on the agenda at the monthly meeting, said an APA spokesman.

AWA remains undeterred and wants to keep the issue in the public eye.

“We know that the Boreas classification will come to the APA Board before long,” said AWA Co-Founder Pete Nelson. “We want the board

to remember that broad support for Wilderness remains rock solid even though the issue has been out of the public eye for several months.

No one has forgotten the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity a full Boreas Wilderness represents.”

Other coalitions, including Access the Adirondacks, have also engaged in letterwriting campaigns to promote their preferred plans for the tract. ■

Chester budget proposed with 20 cent increase

Result would raise taxes $25 on a $125,000 home

By Christopher South STA FF W RITER

CHESTERTOWN | The Chester Town Board got a look at the proposed 2018 municipal budget Nov. 1, but adjourned the public hearing without taking action.

Proposed is a $4.1 million municipal budget that includes a tax rate increase of 20 cents per $1,000 of assessed value.

“On a $125,000 house that would be an increase of $25 for the year,” supervisor Craig Leggett said.

The proposed 2018 tax rate would be $1.68, as opposed to $1.48 in 2017. About $1.2 million would be raised by taxes to apply to the $4.1 million in appropriations.

“Do you want me to take a hatchet to (the budget) and make sure we are not over the tax cap?” Leggett asked the town board.

He said he put $7,000 in the budget for improving the intersection of St. Rt. 9 and Olmstedville Road, and another $2,000 for the basketball court in Pottersville, although he knows more funding could be appropriated.

And as in 2017, he is proposing not to use any fund balance, preferring to save it for emergencies, if needed.

The grand total of the general fund, water, fire, and park districts includes $5.4 million in appropriations, with about $2.2 million being raised by taxes.

The collective tax rate for the town and its districts is $8.72 per $1,000 of assessed value, which is $872 on a $100,000 home. The figure does not include school and county taxes.

The public hearing on the budget will reconvene on Wednesday, Nov. 8, at 5 p.m. in the town meeting room. ■

Councilman Mike Packer said he was okay with exceeding the cap, but suggested reducing costs spending.

Councilwoman Karen Durose suggested contracting out cemetery maintenance to reduce costs, and Councilwoman Edna Wells suggested finding more money for the YMCA. Leggett said in order to meet the tax cap, the budget can inly increase appropriations by $167,000.

The proposed 2018 budget has an increase of over $299,000, which is $132,000 over the cap. Leggett said that amount needs to be cut to get to the tax cap, but it might result in reducing services.

The largest single increase in costs to the Town of Chester are employee benefits, which would increase by $77,199 in 2018.

Health insurance costs increased 33 percent for 2018, said the supervisor.

Other health costs, which includes $40,000 for the North Warren EMS, will rise a total of $41,340.

State Sen. Betty Little told county lawmakers on Oct. 31 that in the absence of volunteers, towns would be forced to pay more for EMS services, Leggett said.

Leggett said a $19,837 increase in recreation costs was, in part, due to payouts for vacation time for two employees who are retiring.

The finance line item was increasing $16,114 due to salary, healthcare and retirement contributions for the assessor.

Leggett said he had to add $18,516 for debt service to pay

2018 LOCAL BUDGETS

Supervisor: Horicon budget very conservative 2.4 cent increase is $3.60 on $150,000 home

By Christopher South STA FF W RITER

HORICON | Horicon supervisor Matt Simpson said the 2018 budget with its 2.4 cent tax rate increase is very conservative, with the increase due to rising healthcare, expanded roadwork and two more weeks of milfoil harvesting.

“This budget is very tight,” Simpson said.

According to Simpson, the Horicon budget could only increase by $12,811 in taxes above the 2017 budget amount and remain under the 2 percent levy cap.

Horicon’s 2108 budget appropriations, including the Fire Protection District and Schroon Lake Park District, is about $3.8 million.

The town will raise just over $801,000 by taxes and use

about $306,000 from the fund balance to offset taxes.

Simpson said the $306,000 amounts to less than onethird of the fund balance.

The new local tax rate will be .897 per $1,000 of assessed value.

“We’ve got a very low tax rate,” Simpson said.

The combined tax rate including the fire and Schroon Lake Park District will be .971.

At that rate, the owner of a home assessed at $150,000 will pay $146 in local taxes, or about $3.60 more than in 2107.

Simpson said the 2018 budget is right at the state mandated budget cap, Simpson said.

The primary factors for the budget increase are factors out of the town’s control, said the supervisor.

He said health insurance is going up about 5 percent, which amounts to a roughly $16,000 increase.

“We will also have an additional two weeks of milfoil harvesting,” Simpson said.

He said milfoil harvesting will cost the town $7,600 per week for seven weeks in 2018.

Total tax levy: $1,792,079 Total fund balance usage:

$100,000 for highway; $75,000, general and $30,000 for parks

By Christopher South STA FF W RITER

QUEENSBURY | Warren County Budget Officer Frank Thomas said if the county can raise taxes while remaining under the cap, it should do so.

“While no one wants a tax increase, while the county has an opportunity to raise taxes and still fall below the tax cap, we should take advantage of that,” he said.

Thomas filed a tentative county budget of nearly $153 million on Nov. 3, less estimated revenues.

The figure does not include sales tax credit and the amount of surplus appropriated, leaving a balance of nearly $43.7

million to be raised by taxation.

The county will apply about $3.8 million in surplus to the 2018 spending plan.

The budget contains an increase in appropriations of $1.25 million, which is a 2.96 percent increase over 2017.

The 2018 county tax rate is $3.984 per $1,000 of assessed value.

A home assessed at $200,000 will pay $15.40 more than in 2017.

“We are under the property tax cap by $81,222,” Thomas said.

The budget includes 2.9 percent increases for union and nonunion employees. Thomas said he anticipated a dollar amount to soon be reached with the PBA. The regular supervisors salaries were raised by 2.9 percent to $17,285, an increase of $500.

Thomas said performance reviews had been conducted for all department heads, resulting in raises of between 2.5 and 3.3 percent.

Over/under tax cap? Right at budget cap Total appropriations: Approximately $3.8 million Total fund balance usage: $306,000 The Brant Lake Association contributes about half the cost of milfoil harvesting.

Simpson said the town’s contribution for the North Warren Rescue Squad will cost the town about $32,000.

In the Highway Department, the town is looking to purchase a new tandem truck and a new Ford 550 to replace existing trucks. Simpson said the town replaces some trucks about every three years in order not to have to replace them all at once.

Simpson said another focus in the 2018 budget is to do additional paving on Pease Hill Road.

“I know we have accumulated money for Pease Hill Road, so we will focus on more road work between the highway and town budgets,” Simpson said.

The combined budgets contain close to $200,000 for road improvements.

“This is a very conservative budget,” Simpson said. ■

“Our employees are our biggest asset, and our largest expense,” Thomas said.

Regarding health care costs, Thomas said he believed the county would have more success controlling costs in the future.

Thomas told the board of supervisors the county would continue to look for efficiencies in spending; would consider options for increasing revenue, including use of the former Westmount Health Facility, now the Warren Center; the county is looking at selling a parcel of property across St. Rt. 9 from the municipal complex; and analyze employment positions as they become vacant.

A public hearing on the 2018 Warren County budget will be held at the next regular Board of Supervisors meeting on Nov. 17. ■

Thoughts from Behind the Pressline

Pure evil

It’s hard to understand why anyone would take another person’s life.

It is Sunday night

By Dan Alexander and I sit here learn• PUBLISHER • ing of a vicious church shooting earlier today in Texas with the killing total still on the rise as I write this column.

We can make some semblance of rationalizing certain killings, even as horrific as the recent terror killings in New York City.

We can’t fully understand what’s in the mind of a jihadist like the one who recently rented the small truck and killed eight innocent individuals.

But sadly, we’ve come to regrettably accept terrorism with the understanding that these misguided individuals believe they are combatants in a self-proclaimed holy war.

As such, we can recognize certain behavior and provide some forms of defense and be on guard in certain situations where we sense a terrorist might choose to strike.

Still very unpredictable, but at the very least, we are no longer taken completely by surprise when such event occurs.

But to try and understand what causes a 26-year-old American-born citizen to calmly walk into a Sutherland Springs, Texas First Baptist Church and open fire, killing 26 and injuring scores more while they worship the Lord in His house is simply beyond all comprehension.

We have no defenses or ability to be on guard for this type of behavior.

We now have armed guards, locked, armored doors and metal detectors at many schools and office buildings.

Should we now expect to see armed ushers at weekly church service?

How do we explain or come to grips with this form of anger and desire to commit these heinous acts?

The only explanation is the existence of pure evil at work.

Much like the recent concert shooting in Las Vegas, we cannot avoid living and enjoying life. We will continue to gather for church services, events, school, celebrations and even simple tasks such as shopping and work.

We cannot shrink in the face of evil, but instead defy its will to control our actions.

We have so many good deeds taking place all around us every day. We must remember to embrace life in our free society while reaching out to all those who may be troubled in the hopes of helping them to reject the acts of evil that obviously compel them to take actions such as this. ■

From the Editorial Board

Region faces tough choices as population ages By now, Election Day is in the rear view.

As reporters, we always try to read the tea leaves of the local political scene, looking at trends and patterns.

Over the years, we’ve often opined that it’s lamentable so many local races go uncontested.

This year was no exception, with scores of candidates across the region running unopposed, from judges to town supervisors.

People should have a choice even if the office is decidedly unglamorous — especially when so many stories come trickling back to us about rogue assessors, tricky supervisors and apathetic councilmen, among other intrigue swirling around your typical small town government.

Obviously the dynamics in each community are different, and we shouldn’t reach to stitch together strands of causation when there aren’t any.

But one indisputable trend is the age of politicians here.

Office-seekers in the North Country tend to be older than the rest of us.

The first reason is demographics.

The average age of Adirondack Park residents is just under 43 years old.

That’s almost six years older than the state average.

So it’s no surprise that our political representatives, well, represent that.

According to the 2014 Adirondack Park Regional Assessment Project report, the number of Adirondack Park residents younger than age 30 is projected to decline by an average of 14 percent each decade.

By 2030, more than one-third of us will be over the age of 60, making the Adirondacks one of the oldest places anywhere in the nation.

North Creek sewer presentation very informative To the Editor: I recently attended a public presentation on the proposed sewer for the North Creek business district given prior to the Town of Johnsburg Board Meeting.

It was very informative. It included adding other districts later on — also financing the project with grants, matching funds, loans, et cetera.

The goal would be to change a $500 yearly fee to users of the sewer. You do not have to look it up if you don’t want to.

At the board meeting, Mr. Arsenault reported he has drawn up a tentative budget that came

This will have widespread ramifications on the survival of our communities.

Actually, it already has.

We’ve already seen it as schools struggle to keep enrollment up; as churches labor to attract more than a handful to their weekend services, and as emergency service agencies fight to keep their organizations staffed with able-bodied volunteers.

How to instantly boost civic participation does not have an easy answer.

But it’s never too late to start thinking big.

We believe the fi rst way to broaden civic engagement is to pay a living wage for office-seekers.

Many of our elected officials are on their second or even third careers.

For them, they’re not holding office for the paycheck, but rather to give back to their communities.

It’s admirable they do so, and by all means, someone has got to do it.

But until localities can start paying a living wage, young people aren’t exactly going to be flocking to these positions, most of which pay poverty-level wages.

Legislators in Clinton County earned $17,500 in 2016, for instance.

It’s time we start thinking about how to boost these numbers.

There’s obviously nothing wrong with older folks leading our communities. As the saying goes, “Youth is wasted on the young.”

But young folks may offer a different outlook and perspective, particularly considering revitalizing our downtowns is one of the most pressing issues facing each of our communities.

A long-term goal for boosting pay should

go hand-in-hand with how we view government as a whole.

Alternatively, as our population ages and contracts, we can start tackling some existential questions and take the opposite approach.

We were intrigued when we learned of the so-called Unorganized Territory in Maine, a huge swatch of stretch of land skirting around the state’s southeast population cluster.

“As operating costs have increased, the economy has stagnated and the population has aged and dwindled, a handful of struggling towns have pursued the unusual process of eliminating local government entirely,” The New York Times reported in 2016.

Once towns opt to “deorganize,” then the county absorbs those services.

Local officials’ salaries vanish, as does the cost of maintaining infrastructure.

Operational costs are then spread across the Unorganized Territory either in each county or statewide.

It’s an interesting concept — and one that makes sense, especially when you analyze some of the early budget numbers coming out of our small communities: Revenues are down, expenses are up, including health care, which continues to see premiums skyrocket.

Now we’re not saying we should make like the Pine Tree State and, er, deorganize ourselves — especially when so many of our small towns exist around themselves.

But for the rest of us who are struggling to make ends meet, it’s an attractive option — and one that should be weighed if we’re not willing to pay our rising stars a living wage. ■ -Sun Community News Editorial Board

Republican “tax reform” is a tax cut for big business

To the Editor: Congress has done it once more, and the present administration has joined in!

Tax reform is the name of the new way to get the top one percent and big business and windfall. They also want to abolish the “death tax” which will benefit the wealthy! Speaker Paul Ryan tells us most Americans will only have a “post card” to fill out to file their taxes.

I have to ask: What is wrong with the 1040A tax form? This is what the majority of Americans already use and a fifth grader could fill it out!

Ryan tells us most households making $59,000 a year, with four people, will see $1,182 returned.

The key word here is “most.”

Some small businesses will benefit but others will not.

One thing is clear and it’s that big business will see two trillion dollars in tax cuts. This is at a time when we are already 23 trillion in debt.

Our president told us he would cut our debt, not add to it. They also want to take out the deductions for medical expense, interest, state and local taxes as well as the miscellaneous that would cover those who had no insurance and lost their homes.

Yes, folks, the Republicans have once more proved they are the party of “big business!”

What about those in nursing homes and those with thousands of dollars of out of pocket expenses

for drugs and hundreds of thousands on dialysis with high out of pocket expenses?

Those with new homes paying thousands in interest payments will lose the deduction under the bill set forth by Congress and the administration.

This a present from Ryan and our president as he stated, “this will be a Christmas present to the American people.”

Hopefully they won’t give us and anymore presents! ■ Gary Philip Guido, Ticonderoga

GOP tax bill will benefit the wealthy

To the Editor: The House tax bill will provide huge benefits for the wealthy and for corporations, while any benefits to middle-class taxpayers are questionable.

Numerous provisions will benefit high earners. The top tax rate does stay at the current 39.6 percent, but taxes on the wealthy will still be substantially cut.

The estate tax, kicking in at $5.9 million, will be phased out over five years. The alternative minimum tax, created to ensure that the wealthiest pay at least some taxes, will end immediately.

Real-estate developers, hedge-fund and privateequity managers will continue to benefit from carried-interest and pass-through rules under which their tax rates are below the income-tax rates they would otherwise pay.

As a candidate, the president pledged to end to the carried-interest loophole.

Business taxes will fall from 35 to 20 percent. Based on past history, the benefits are more likely to go to stockholders rather than to workers.

In contrast, any benefits to middle-class households are much less clearcut.

The standard deduction will double, but the lowest tax bracket goes up from 10 to 12 percent.

The tax credit for seniors will disappear. State and local income tax deductions will be gone, while the property tax deduction will be capped at $10,000.

These provisions will hurt many taxpayers in hightax states such as New York. Mortgage interest-rate deductions will be capped. Deductions for medical expenses will be eliminated. Interest on student loans will no longer be deductible.

With all these deductions gone, many middle-class households may actually see their taxes increased.

If Republicans really want to help the middle class, they could simply pass targeted tax cuts for moderate incomes, rather than rather than expecting us to settle for some future, vague trickle-down effect. ■ Claire Gilmore, Tupper Lake

Youth wrestling sessions begin at Warrensburg school

WARRENSBURG | Area children from kindergarten age through sixth-grade level are encouraged to join Warrensburg’s acclaimed Youth Wrestling program as practices start this week.

The acclaimed program welcomes youngsters of all athletic abilities, coaches said.

The wrestling coaches said this week that the youth program not only helps develop strength and coordination, but also positive character traits — diligence, dedication, and pursuit of personal goals — that lead to success in life.

In recent years, a large number of the participants in the Warrensburg Youth Wrestling program have competed in top-level wrestling tournaments regionally and across the northeastern U.S., as well as becoming superior athletes in various sports in high school and beyond.

Also, Warrensburg’s youth wrestling team has fared well in recent years, winning various championship titles over their season, which extends through February.

Practices are held from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. on both Tuesday and Thursday evenings in the Warrensburg Elementary School General Purpose Room. Coaches extend the practices until 7:30 p.m. or so for the children who are interested in acquiring extra wrestling time and skills in the sport.

In prior years, the program has welcomed youth of both genders, and several of the girls participating have become outstanding athletes. Abby Roth, who graduated Warrensburg High School in 2009, was not only a standout wrestler in the Adirondack League, but she had remarkable achievements in softball and field hockey too.

For more details, parents can call coach Lenny Baker at (518) 623-2984, coach Cody Rumble at (518) 538-1558, or coach Mark Trapasso at (518) 744-7390. ■

Veterans Day service set in Warrensburg

WARRENSBURG | Veterans Day ceremonies in Warrensburg are to be held at 11 a.m. Saturday Nov. 11.

The event includes a roll call of veterans who passed away this year, as well as a brief address by American Legion Post 446 Adjutant Gene Pierce, who has served as both the Legion’s District Commander and Warren County Commander.

Pierce said this week his speech will talk about World War I and the origins of Veterans Day, as this year is the 100th anniversary of the beginning of the war. ■

Turning Back the Pages

By Jean Hadden COLUMNIST

MAKE IT GO AWAY

The action instituted by James Hillis and other taxpayers of the Town of Queensbury to restrain the Town of Queensbury and the Warren County Board of Supervisors from establishing the proposed county tuberculosis hospital on the Titus-Codner farms in Gurney Lane, will be argued in Supreme Court at Lake George.

County Attorney Loyal L. Davis represents the county.

(Update: The hospital was later built and for many years it was known as “Westmount.” Today, under new ownership, it is renamed “Warren Center for Nursing and Rehabilitation.” It has been much in the news for various violations in the past year.)

MISSED THE MARK

James Keenan of Warrensburgh, employed by Robert Bibby at North River, cut his right foot severely with an axe on Saturday, Oct. 27, 1917, nearly severing the great toe.

Dr. Leon Cote of Albany, who was hunting nearby, dressed the wound and Mr. Keenan was brought home to remain during recovery.

INDIAN SUMMER ENDS

A cold wave followed in the wake of the heavy rains as November labors onward in this area. There was a thin coating of ice over pools of water after a period of prolonged mild weather here. Crane Mountain was coated with snow in the early morning. The Schroon River and other local streams were considerably raised during the downpour. For the past month, the Schroon River has been at a low stage so that the water rippled over the rocky bottom just below the Osborne Bridge. It is stated that this was due to repairs on the Starbuckville Dam, near Chestertown.

LOST IN PLAIN SIGHT

A pocketbook containing more than $85 belonging to Delbert VanAuken was found in Lynch’s Bargain Store, Stony Creek, where it had remained unnoticed for over ten hours on a rack of axes.

About a year ago a pocketbook belonging to Mrs. VanAuken was found in exactly the same spot.

(Update: It is no sin to be absentminded. Recently, in the daily newspaper there was a story about a shopper in a Portland, Maine grocery store who inadvertently grabbed someone else’s cart by mistake and did not notice that there was a baby sleeping in the cart until he got to the other end of the store.)

LOVE YOUR CHICKENS

Statistics show that the hen is the best paying investment today on the farm when given proper care and attention. If you want to get the best results, feed your chickens a little of Harvell’s Condition Powers occasionally — it makes the hens lay. A large package of these pills sells for 25 cents at Hammond’s Crystal Pharmacy, Warrensburgh.

WEDDING BELLS

Mr. and Mrs. Willis Langworthy, newlyweds, received a special wedding gift. From Mrs. Langworthy’s co-workers, in the Empire Shirt Company’s factory, the couple was given a beautiful upholstered willow-rocker which was purchased in Warrensburgh for them at the Woodward furniture store. (Update: The Woodwards sold furniture in one half of their store and conducted a funeral parlor in the other half.)

NEWS ROUNDABOUT

The new postage rates on first-class mail will go into effect Nov. 2, 1917. Be sure and put three cents postage on letters and two cents on post cards.

Mrs. M.B. Milliman, 93 years old, has knitted 24 pairs of socks for the soldiers.

The Young Men’s Dancing Association entertained at Music Hall with a Zita dance and proceeds were donated to the local Red Cross Auxiliary. (Update: “Music Hall” was located next door north of today’s Rite Aid drug store.)

Mr. and Mrs. Claude Lanfear of East Thurman welcomed an eight-pound boy to their home Friday evening, Oct. 26, 1917. He has been named Thurston Claude Lanfear.

Walter D. Weaver and Miss Lillian Hall, both of Warrensburgh, were married by the Rev. S.R. Brown Saturday evening, April 28, 1917, at the home of Mrs. Louise Hoag. The bride is the daughter of Fred Hall, of Hector, formerly of Warrensburgh. (Update: When I was a very young girl I met Lillian Weaver, an elderly lady, many years ago at a rummage sale she held on her front porch. I purchased a lovely heavy glass lemonade pitcher from her and I always think of her when I use it.)

E.H. McAuliffe, of Wevertown, wishes to state that the horses and other property recently sold at auction in that place, at his hotel, were his own personal property and were honestly sold at a bargain price.

FREE LOCAL GATHERINGS

November 1, 1917 is “All Saints Day,” and is observed with solemnity and special services in the Episcopal and Catholic churches.

Nov. 2, 1917 is “All Soal’s Day.” “John Barleycorn before the Jury” will be the subject of a fiery temperance address by the Rev. Fred J. Tower of Albany at the Fairyland Theatre on Nov. 2, 1917 at 8 o’clock. Admission is free and there is expected to be a large audience. (Update: The Fairyland moving picture theatre was located directly across the street from today’s Warrensburg Historical Museum.)

Animal strikes by vehicles more common this time of year Bald eagle flies into school bus windshield in Schoharie County

By Christopher South STA FF W RITER

LATHAM | Temperatures plummet this time of year.

It also tends to be a time when authorities see an increase in the number of vehicles striking animals on New York roadways.

“This time of year there is probably at least one animal strike per day in the Troop G area,” said New York State Trooper Mark Ceipel, a state police spokesman.

On Nov. 5 alone, two patrol vehicles from Troop G struck deer in separate areas.

Ceipel said he recently heard of a bear being struck on I-87, but couldn’t recall where.

“Our trooper cars strike bears,” Ceipel said. “Our vehicles are not immune to striking animals; maybe even more so because we are on the road whole a lot more.”

The state Department of Environmental Conservation advised in an Oct. 5 press release that says early fall is a peak time for wildlife activity in New York.

“This is the deer mating season and they tend to be more on the move in the fall,” said Ben DeLaMater, a spokesman with the DEC. DeLaMater, in a phone interview on Nov. 6, said the DEC does not keep statistics on deer strikes.

It does, however, monitor the number of moose hit by vehicles. So far, this year, 12 moose have been struck by motor vehicles in New York State, and in the last two years there were 22 moose strikes by vehicles.

New York State Police’s Interstate Highway Patrol was called to investigate a school bus striking a bald eagle in the Town of Duanesburg on Oct. 30.

The online report says a Schoharie Central School District bus was westbound on I-88 at about 11 a.m. when a bald eagle flew directly into the bus’s windshield and shattered it.

Neither the bus driver nor any of the students on the bus or the driver were injured, authorities said.

The eagle was killed and its body was collected by the state DEC. The students were transferred to another bus, and the bus involved in the accident was towed from the scene.

The state Department of Motor Vehicles keeps statistics on accidents involving motor vehicles and wild animals.

A 2014 report says that year there were 23,221 accidents

in New York State involving animals - five of them being fatal for the driver.

That was nearly 64 animal strikes per day in 2014.

Drivers should pay attention to the yellow warning signs for deer crossings posted by the state Department of Transportation posts based on numbers of deer/motor vehicle accidents in the area.

“They are placed there because deer are a creature of habit, and they will travel in the same places,” Ceipel said.

Ceipel said he would tend to agree that it is better to hit a deer than to swerve off the road and risk hitting a tree or a rock.

“Generally speaking, there is far less of a chance of an injury in a deer strike than if you hit a tree or rock, that doesn’t give, at 60 mph,” he said.

Ceipel said jerking the steering wheel to avoid striking a deer can also result in the vehicle flipping.

In the event a motorist does hit and kills a deer, the driver will be given the option by responding officer to be issued a tag in order to possess that carcass. If the motorist doesn’t want it, he or she can sign over the carcass to someone else. ■

Lake George’s Polar Plunge to benefit Special Olympics

FRIGID FROLIC: Participants in a recent year’s Freezin’ for a Reason Polar Plunge event dash into the cold waters of Lake George. The annual event raises tens of thousands of dollars for Special Olympics NY. This year’s edition of the Special Olympics Polar Plunge is to be held Saturday Nov. 18, and event sponsors urge individuals and teams to garner pledges and join the hundreds of others planning to participate.

Photo provided

LAKE GEORGE | Hundreds of people will be simultaneously dashing into the waters of Lake George for a purpose other than proving their fortitude.

The annual Lake George Freezin’ for a Reason Polar Plunge, to be held at noon Saturday Nov. 18 on Shepard Park Beach, is to raise money for the Special Olympics New York program. On-site registration is to be held from 9 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. the day of the event.

In prior years, up to $65,000 has been raised by individuals or teams procuring pledges for plunging into Lake George, which is among 18 or so other polar swims being held the same day.

A Plunge Pre-Party, open to the public, is set for 8 p.m. to midnight Friday Nov. 17 at the Lake George Beach Club adjacent to the beach. The gathering includes live music, dancing, drink specials, and a silent auction. Registered plungers will get two tickets valid for beer or wine.

As of Nov. 5, $60,000 was pledged by dozens of teams and individuals towards the charity’s 2017 goal of $100,000.

Registration can be made in advance through Special Olympic NY’s website or by calling (518) 388-0790 ext. 8128. For more information, see www.facebook.com/LakeGeorgePlunge or call the above phone number. ■

Future is bright for Burgher football

By Thom Randall STA FF W RITER

WARRENSBURG | Despite a definitive loss to Cambridge in a Class D Section II tournament semifinal game on October 28, the Warrensburg High School football team set some school records as their 2017 season concluded.

Their considerable accomplishments during the year demonstrate that they have a very promising future.

They won their first division title since 2004, and accomplished their highest percentage win-loss record (7-2 overall; 4-0 in Northern Division) in over 20 years.

In addition, the Burghers in 2017 had two players breaking the 1,000-yard rushing barrier — a first-ever for the school. Trevor Prosser and Cole Lanfear were the two running backs that surpassed that landmark.

The Burghers also turned around a slump that had persisted for a half-dozen years.

Sports fans have hailed two-year head coach Mike Perrone and his assistants for their encouraging approach, but Perrone deferred credit for the team’s success to the players.

“They’ve worked hard and been enthusiastic and dedicated all year,” he said.

DUO OF 1,000 YARD RUSHERS

Through the season, Lanfear and Prosser not only blasted through the holes created by Warrensburg’s aggressive line, but they swiveled, pivoted and fought for every extra yard.

This dual rushing threat allowed quarterback Evan MacDuff to call impromptu plays, handing the ball to either runner — or pass the ball — according to how opponents’ defense would align onfield.

When the Burghers incurred any setback during the season, they just fought back with

more intensity. Against Cohoes on Oct. 21, Warrensburg fumbled on the second play of the game deep into their own territory, but a few plays later they halted Cohoes on a fourth-and-one at the 15-yard line and scored their first touchdown of six.

Warrensburg’s defense was overpowering in that game — as they have been through the season — holding Cohoes to under 100 yards of total offense.

The Burghers’ accomplishments are particularly notable, considering the team has one of the thinnest rosters in their conference, Perrone said.

Another positive aspect of the Burghers’ performance this year has been the evolution of their passing game, which was virtually absent last year. Against Cohoes, for instance, MacDuff passed for 108 yards including a touchdown.

“Our passing attack helped us in a lot of games this year,” Perrone said. MacDuff, a junior, completed 31 of 60 passes, seven of them for touchdowns.

BURGHERS PERSEVERED DESPITE SETBACKS

The team’s seniors — Dan Monthony, Brandon Turner, Trevor Winchell, Evan Rock and Cole Lanfear, John Kelly, Trevor Prosser and Greg Shambo — provided strong leadership, Perrone said.

The coach noted that the season’s accomplishments were also particularly outstanding considering that Shambo, the Burghers’ top running back, was sidelined for the entire season due to an injury in one of 2017’s first games.

“Shambo’s injury made our fans nervous — and the players could have said ‘there goes the season’ — but instead to their credit they kept on fighting and pushing, and had a great year,” he said.

On Friday, Nov. 3, the Johnsburg-North Warren boy’s cross country team was very successful. as North Warren’s Brandon Olden won the race in 16:20, and Johnsburg’s Ken Mulvey placing sixth in 16:48. The team ended up second amongst Section II opponents, with Olden and Mulvey earning a spot on the Section II state team to compete in Wayne on Saturday, November 11.

Against Cohoes on Oct. 21, Prosser gained 152 yards on 10 carries, passing the 1,000-yard landmark for the 2017 season — joining teammate Cole Lanfear in the feat. Warrensburg defeated Cohoes 44-6. In the postseason, the Burghers fought their way into the Class D semifinal game against reigning state champion Cambridge. Although they lost this last game by a wide margin, their season set several school records and demonstrated that the football team has a promising future.

Perrone said team chemistry has gelled for 2017.

“The kids are really understanding what we’re trying to do this year,” he said. “With a new program last year, plays were fairly basic. This year they’re more complex, and there are a lot of new schemes.”

Perrone said this season’s success has also been due to his players’ dedication and commitment.

“The guys are playing a lot of 7-on-7 football in the off-season,” he said. “And they’ve been spending a lot of time in the weight room, and it’s helped a lot.”

The offensive line was strong in 2017, with the players executing their plays in a tight collaboration to maximize their team’s yardage gains.

VETERAN ATHLETES TO PLAY KEY ROLES IN 2018

Returning players include juniors Hunter Mosher, Chris Wilson, and Brandon Bailey, joined by Sophomore Jaron Griffin.

Perrone noted that sophomore running back, wide receiver and defensive back Jesse Griffin was one of the most improved players this year, and he’s likely to play a key role in 2018.

Perrone remarked about the dedication of the returning players, noting that three days after their season ended, a large group of football players were back in the weight room, working out and talking about next year’s prospects.

“This camaraderie and enthusiasm shows where our program is headed,” he said. ■

Pedal-powered roving party-bar proposed for Lake George Local attorney pitches “Brewcycle” concept to village board

By Thom Randall STA FF W RITER

LAKE GEORGE | Revelers next summer may be sipping and socializing with friends or co-workers as they collaboratively pedalpower a bar roving around Lake George.

Lake George Village officials heard a proposal Oct. 16 from area attorney Greg Teresi to operate a “brewcycle” enterprise with 8 to 16 people pedaling the mobile bar on tours through the streets of the village, primarily on weekends.

“It’s a unique way to get around,” Teresi said.

“It’s something different that would add to the momentum that the village always has had.”

Similar rolling bars have been operating for years in Nashville; New Orleans; Portland, Oregon; Austin, Texas and other tourist-oriented municipalities.

Teresi operates Brewcycle enterprises in Troy, Schenectady and Hudson N.Y. and he is poised to launch a similar concession in Saratoga Springs.

In Lake George, Teresi proposed that the brewcycle tour would last for about two hours, stopping at various bars in the village for up to a half-hour each.

He said his initial plans call for the tours to start at Deuce Moose Cafe on Beach Road, then head southwest up Westbrook Road then cross Canada St. to the Adirondack Pub & Brewery.

From there, the pedal-powered bar, traveling from 5 to 10 miles per hour, would cruise primarily on the village back streets to one or more other taverns on its route.

Teresi said he’d like the tours to operate seasonally, afternoons and evenings until about 11 p.m., Thursdays through Sundays (but Thursday might not be feasible, he said, due to the traffic during the village’s weekly fireworks displays).

Village Trustee Ray Perry said he had questions concerning how mobile bars could operate in Lake George considering both the village’s existing open container law and its relatively steep hills.

“The riders better be pedaling really hard,” he said.

Teresi responded that sipping clientele in his Troy and Schenectady enterprises are quite able to power the brewcycles over the inclines in both of those cities.

“Our brewcycles must have at least six pedaling passengers,” he said. “At times, it’s a workout.”

Blais said the village’s open container law could be waived or amended to allow such mobile bars.

Trustee John Root aired his thoughts.

“My concern is that it might become a rolling intoxication circus, a public nuisance, or a publicity nightmare,” he said with a smile.

Teresi replied that his brewcycle drivers were trained to monitor how much people drink, and they wouldn’t allow intoxicated passengers to finish their ride.

“I’m a municipal attorney, and this would be closely managed,” Terisi said. He also is co-proprietor of Tiki Tours, which has successfully operated Polynesian-themed bars floating atop Lake George They have been a popular attraction in 2017, their debut year.

“I haven’t heard any bad news reports, so you must be doing something right,” Root responded, referring to the Troy and Schenectady brewcycle enterprises.

Terisi said he was willing to operate the brewcycles whether or not passengers would be

» Lyme Disease Cont. from pg. 1 The metrics are important to help Congress better understand the impacts of tick-borne diseases and the effectiveness of agency programs for surveillance, prevention and control, said the letter, which was spearheaded by Rep. John Faso (R-Kinderhook).

Lawmakers are also urging Hargan to consider a list of strategic objectives, including bolstering research and increasing cooperation between the CDC and state and local health departments.

“This guidance will basically help us work with health care providers to provide supported care,” said Susan Allott, director of preventive services at the Essex County Health Department.

The push joins legislation sponsored by U.S. Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, who stumped across upstate this summer to urge federal health authorities to pull the trigger on establishing the federal advisory committee created under the legislation.

The state Department of Health estimates that the North Country had 295 cases of Lyme disease in 2015.

Cases are rising due a combination of factors, including longer, milder winters and the expansion of ticks beyond their historic geographic range.

Numbers in Clinton County reached as high as 54 cases in 2014, but then dropped off in 2015 down to 29.

Essex County has seen a comparable rise.

“Current statistics basically tell us our year-to-date rate is higher than it’s been in previous years,” Allott said.

Counties do not receive federal funding to combat tickborne illnesses, and their role is primarily outreach and general awareness.

But officials were pleased that state and federal authorities are paying attention.

“This is the greatest thing I’ve seen, heard or encountered in the past year,” said Clinton County Health Director John Kanoza, referring to the Faso/Stefanik letter.

SENATE REPORT

The push by Stefanik and Gillibrand comes on the heels of a new report by a state Senate task force on tick-borne diseases.

The report recommends the state create a specific protocol when it comes to notifying patients of their diagnoses.

Numerous victims testified at the hearings chaired by state Sens. Sue Serino and Kemp Hannon in August.

A constant theme running through all accounts, accord-

allowed to drink alcoholic beverages onboard.

He said that in Hudson, such imbibing while pedaling is allowed, but in Troy and Schenectady, only non-alcoholic beverages are permitted enroute.

He said no “walk-up” patrons would be accommodated, and that tour tickets would be sold online or at the Lake George Beach Club, one of its proposed tour stops.

Teresi’s brewcycles have been operating in Schenectady since summer 2015, and his Troy tours began about two years earlier. He noted that in all his host cities, no problems have occurred.

He described the brewcycles as roadworthy — steered by a bartender/pilot and equipped with headlights, turn signals and brake lights — and that they blended well in traffic in various cities.

Teresi said that most of his clientele were in their late 20s and in their 30s, rarely younger.

ing to the report, was “frustration over the lengthy diagnosis process, disappointment in the efficacy of current testing procedures, misinformation and a lack of consensus in the medical community, as well as barriers to coverage from health insurance providers.”

Lyme disease is notoriously difficult to diagnose, said Chris Fisk, president of the Lyme Action Network.

“It’s an extremely complex medical condition, and it’s not well understood,” Fisk said. “This disease is quite unique in each individual and needs to be treated that way.”

BILL OFFERED

State Sen. Betty Little (R-Queensbury) has cosponsored legislation that would require the state to develop a specific protocol to guide providers in properly diagnosing and treating Lyme and tick-borne diseases and require them to provide patients with a notification form to better educate them about their test results.

The bill, Little said, would “arm patients with information they need to more effectively advocate for themselves and receive swift, effective treatment.”

“It is commonly accepted that Lyme disease can be effectively treated with antibiotics if detected early,” said Little in a statement. “However, as was discussed by many hearing witnesses, the test used to detect Lyme disease is simply not reliable.

“Too often patients are led to believe that they are in the clear after receiving a ‘negative’ serology test for Lyme disease, which ultimately delays critical treatment resulting in worsening — sometimes irreversible — symptoms.”

More robust metrics are also necessary to get a clearer picture of the scope of the disease.

New York reported 3,252 confirmed cases of Lyme disease to the CDC in 2015. But the federal agency estimates that the actual number of diagnosed cases is as many as 10 times higher.

Patients testified at the hearings that “rampant inaccuracies” plague the test currently used to detect tick-borne diseases, with some suffering with symptoms for years before an accurate diagnosis and treatment.

“There are undoubtedly many more cases, particularly of Lyme disease, that are treated by community physicians and are not reported, or do not meet the case definition,” testified New York State Health Commissioner Howard Zucker at the hearings.

The lack of a proper diagnosis can limit the resources

The brewcycle drivers and tavern proprietors would be checking passengers’ I.D.’s he said.

The brewcycle tours are often booked with groups, as well as couples and individuals, and the latter provides a fun way to make new friends, Teresi said.

“Its quite an experience,” he said. “Everybody is there to have a good time.”

Blais suggested that the enterprise be allowed on a one-season trial basis.

“We’re interested in exploring this concept,” he said, noting that a village franchise for such a business would likely have to be advertised for bids. “We’re always looking for new attractions.”

Blais and trustees suggested that Teresi should come back to the board with more details, including a specific tour route. ‘‘I’m happy to fine-tune my presentation,” Teresi responded. ■

available for treatment.

“The numbers are very very misleading and extremely inaccurate,” Fisk said. “We’re concerned the number of cases are so spectacularly underreported, is why disease doesn’t get attention it should.”

But, Fisk said, the proposed state legislation looks promising.

“We worked very hard to get that bill through,” she said.

“We’re optimistic and appreciative.”

Little said it’s important to note authorities must craft a more effective public health approach for additional tickborne illnesses, including the Powassan virus, the emergence of which in New York has “brought the sense of urgency to a new level.”

In Essex County, Allott noted an uptick in anaplasmosis from just two cases in 2016 to nine cases so far this year.

The report also recommended boosting funding in the state budget, creating an action plan and taking a more aggressive approach to pursuing research funding.

Kanoza said he was heartened the bill will promote testing in children who present with disease-related symptoms.

Swift treatment will allow them to avoid the long-term consequences of misdiagnosis.

“Once you get Lyme disease, if not treated quickly and effectively, the effects can hang with you for the rest of your life,” Kanoza said. “It’s only going to get worse in New York State.” ■ PICTURED ON COVER: The number of tick-borne diseases are increasing in the United States, with 90 percent of confirmed Lyme disease cases being reported from New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Connecticut.

LYME DISEASE SYMPTOMS

Lyme disease can result in a range of symptoms including, but not limited to, fever, rash, facial paralysis, and arthritis. Given its similarities to other common infections, it is often mistaken for chronic fatigue syndrome, early Alzheimer’s disease, fibromyalgia, lupus and multiple sclerosis, among others.

ELECTION RESULTS

www.suncommunitynews.com

Published by Denton Publications, Inc.

Warren County elections yield mix of political rookies and veterans of board member Joyce Reed, who retired earlier this year. In this race, former local teacher Donne-Lynn Winslow, who was appointed to the board this summer, defeated challenger Bill Mahar.

By Thom Randall STA FF W RITER

QUEENSBURY | In Lake George, fourterm town supervisor Dennis Dickinson, representing the Republican and Independence parties, defeated six-year Lake George Town Councilman Dan Hurley, a retired electrical contractor who ran on the Democratic and Conservative lines.

The vote was 528 for Dickinson and 408 for Hurley.

Although this race featured sharply divergent views of how to upgrade aging infrastructure, the two candidates’ goals were similar, and the two conducted civil campaigns, unlike in several other towns of Warren County.

“It was a good campaign and Dan had a good showing at the polls, which shows people were interested in Dan’s positions, and we’ll take them into consideration as we move forward,” Dickinson said Tuesday night.

Hurley offered his thoughts as well.

“I’m looking forward to working with the other board members for the next two years on the issues facing the town, focusing on infrastructure,” Hurley said.

IN BOLTON, WHITE DEFEATS CONNALLY IN BOLTON

In Bolton, a town justice post was up for election. Former councilman and present marriage officer Edward G. White — a Republican who has gained experience as both a sheriff’s deputy and a private investigator —defeated Joe Connally, a retired corporate executive and former Marine Corps sergeant Joe Connally.

White received 493 votes to Connally’s 234.

For two positions on the town board, Incumbent Tim Coon — for years the town Highway Superintendent — and former Deputy Town Supervisor Wanda Cleavland were elected, defeating independent candidate Carole Newell, who has served on the Bolton Chamber of Commerce Board and the Bolton Farmers Market Committee.

The vote tally was 587 for Cleavland, 554 for Coon and 177 for Newell.

Incumbent Highway Superintendent William Sherman — running on both Republican and Democratic lines, defeated independent challenger Stephen Breault by a vote of 648 to 78.

INCUMBENTS WIN IN WARRENSBURG

In the three-way race to fill two expired four-year terms on the Warrensburg Town board, incumbent Republicans John Alexander and Bryan Rounds defeated rich Larkin, a retired telecommunications technician.

The vote tally was 579 for Alexander, 452 for Rounds and 301 for Larkin.

Two candidates were competing to fill the remaining two years of an unexpired term

REALIGNMENT PENDING IN THURMAN

In Thurman, where political upheaval seems to erupt every several years, a realignment of the town board occurred while an effort to oust the town supervisor fell short.

Incumbent town supervisor Cynthia Hyde — a Democrat with a long tenure as the town clerk — turned back a challenge launched by

former board member and past Deputy Supervisor Susan Shepler, the Republican candidate, by a vote of 230 to 211.

Four Thurman town board seats were up for election.

Elected to two board posts with four-year terms were Republicans incumbent Joan Harris and political newcomer Doug Needham.

The vote ousted town board member Kathy Templeton, a Democrat and past chair of the town’s Assessment Board of Review.

Harris is a retired Postmaster of Athol, former town youth commissioner and past planning board chair as well as town historical society president. The vote tally was 271 for Harris, 246 for Needham and 197 for Kathy Templeton.

Elected to two board seats with two-year terms were former board member Gail Seaman, a registered nurse, and political neophyte Brenda Ackley. Mary Eddy, wife of present town board member Mike Eddy and account manager for his construction business, trailed the other two in the balloting. The vote tally was 288 for Ackley, 229 for Seaman, and 193 for Mary Eddy.

NEW FACES JOIN WARREN COUNTY BOARD

To represent Glens Falls Ward 1 in Warren County Government, Mayor Jack Diamond won the Glens Falls Ward 1 County Supervisor post defeating Nancy Underwood, the Republican, Independence and Reform candidate, by a vote of 169 to 164. Diamond will take the place of long-time county supervisor Dan Girard, who retires from the position at the end of this year.

For the Glens Falls Ward 4 county super-

visor post, William Loeb — representing the Democratic and Women’s Equality parties — defeated Republican and Independence candidate Karen Judd, 202 to 121. Loeb served in the county supervisor position years ago, prior to James Brock, who decided to retire.

To represent Queensbury as at-large Warren County supervisors, five candidates ran for four open positions.

Incumbent Republicans Matt Sokol and Doug Beaty won seats as well as political newcomers Michael Wild and Brad Magowan who ran on the Republican, Independence and Reform lines.

POLITICAL DRAMA IN QUEENSBURY

In Queensbury, incumbent supervisor John Strough defeated challenger Rachel Seeber, current county supervisor-at-large for the town, overcoming concentrated opposition by the local Republican establishment. The vote was 4,049 for Strough and 2,927 for Seeber.

The contentious campaign included strident criticism of Strough for failing to inform the public and other board members of a state audit citing inadequate financial oversight on town contracts.

But Seeber was apparently weighed down by her party leaders’ attempt to get a noncandidate elected and have him resign so they could appoint someone of their choice, a move revealed by an investigation by Democrats and strongly criticized by local media.

In the race for Glens Falls Mayor, following the departure of Jack Diamond due to a two-term limit, Democrat Dan Hall defeated G.O.P. candidate Tim Guy and Green Party candidate Richard P. Cirino.

The vote was 1,911 for Hall, 585 for Guy and 458 for Cirino. ■

available by Councilwoman Edna Wells not running for reelection.

Al Muench finished with 205 votes. There were 58 writein votes. Candidate John Shafer waged a write-in campaign after the Warren County Board of Elections determined some signatures on his petitions to be invalid.

DuRose said her first order of business was to get back to work on the budget, and to work on improving roads in Chestertown.

“We need to work really hard on roads. It was the biggest issue I heard about while campaigning,” she said.

She said she was glad supervisor Craig Leggett is bringing back a budget that meets the levy cap rather exceed the cap, as originally presented. DuRose said, however, there might be a point where the town has to exceed the cap due to rising salaries and wages and health insurance costs.

Turcotte said he is excited about his election.

“I really look forward to serving the community,” he said.

“I want to get involved in the whole process, and I think I will be a valuable asset.”

Turcotte, who works for Winchip Engineering, said he has experienced town government by attending meetings related to his work. He said later his mother encouraged him to seek a position on the town board.

“She put the bug in my ear saying, ‘You know how it works, you understand what in going on,’” Turcotte said.

Turcotte said he would prioritize building a year-round economy. He said the town needs to take the lead in establishing an environment in which businesses will want to come into Chestertown and set up shop.

“We need to give businesses reasons to set up here - to create a business friendly environment,” he said.

In other election results from Chestertown, Town Justice James McDermott was reelected after running unopposed.

HORICON INCUMBENTS REELECTED

Supervisor Matt Simpson, town clerk Krista Wood, and superintendent of highways Darian Granger were all reelected in uncontested races.

Incumbent board members Robert Olsen and Frank Hill were reelected over challenger Patrick Farrell. The tally was Olsen 300 and Hill 249, with Farrell receiving 192 votes.

Town justice Kevin Kilcullen was reelected by an unofficial margin of 314-112 over challenger Donald Gallone. ■

Few surprises in Essex County races

By Pete DeMola EDITOR

TICONDEROGA | It was a good night to be an incumbent in Essex County.

All three incumbent town supervisors facing contested races racked up huge 3 to 1 victories over their opponents after polls closed on Tuesday night.

Wilmington Supervisor and Essex County Board of Supervisors Chairman Randy Preston bested Bill Sibalski 78 to 22 percent, winning a sixth term.

North Elba Supervisor Roby Politi also scored a sixth two-year term, easily routing

Brian Barrett.

In a rematch from 2015, Ticonderoga Supervisor Joe Giordano defeated his predecessor Bill Grinnell, who waged in a write-in campaign, 79 to 22 percent.

Essex County District Attorney Kristy Sprague and Essex County Coroner Francis Whitelaw ran unopposed and were re-elected to four-year terms.

BALLOT PROPOSALS

Voters resoundingly defeated a ballot proposition to hold a constitutional convention by a decisive 60 point margin.

A proposal to bar public officials convicted of felonies from taxpayer funded pensions was also approved by wide margins.

Despite concerns from advocates that the controversy generated from the convention would trickle down the ballot, Proposal 3, which would create a 250-acre land bank in the Adirondacks and Catskills, narrowly

The measure, which garnered broad support by a coalition of stakeholders in the Adirondacks, will make it easier for local governments to access state land for public infrastructure projects.
