Justice for all: North Country vet lobbies Congress for help with hep C bill Danny Kaifetz is seeking federal legislation giving all vets access to treatment for disease that plagues veteran population

By Keith Lobdell

KEESEVILLE | Danny Kaifetz knows all too well what it feels like to have a diagnosis and be told you cannot be treated.

“I’m cured — the VA saved my life,” Kaifetz said of his ordeal with hepatitis C between 2011 and 2016. “I want to make sure others get help before it is too late, and the VA can do this and wipe out hep C in 2-3 years — they have all the tools, money and support they need to eradicate this from the veteran population.”

Local pastor recounts Texas relief efforts “It was encouraging to see the community come together and support each other,” says Josh Bennett

By Pete DeMola EDITOR

Members of Life Church in Elizabethtown, New York spent five days in Houston this month aiding in Hurricane Harvey relief efforts.

ELIZABETHTOWN | It’s 85 miles from Beaumont, Texas to Houston.

On the drive, Josh Bennett gazed out at the devastated landscape that seemed to scroll on forever, a tangled thread of destroyed houses, piles of debris and forlorn homeowners.

“There were just piles of rubble the whole way,” Bennett said. “And I thought to myself, ‘This same scenario is playing out from here to Houston.’”

Bennett, a pastor at the Life Church in Elizabethtown, eventually found himself in Evadale, population 1,430, where he spent nearly a week with his team aiding in “mudouts,” the act of cleaning water-damaged homes left in the wake of Hurricane Harvey.

Homes were flooded with up to 52 inches of water when the Neches River overflowed its banks.

Left behind were rooms full of mud and sludge.

The laborious recovery process included ripping down sheetrock, pulling out insulation and using chemicals to combat the spread of mold.

Walls were often entirely reduced to their bare frames.

“It’s a big part of getting peoples’ lives back to some sense of normalcy,” said Bennett.

Among the most heartbreaking aspects was removing damaged possessions, salvaging whatever possible.

Once treasures, items were reduced to trash.

Bennett recalled a set of delicate figurines on a shelf at a woman’s home.

At another, a man sat silently, stunned at the wreckage.

The group prayed for peace upon completion of each project.

The man was stoic.

And then he cried. » Hurricane Relief Cont. on pg. 17

youngsters between July and August of this year, with a state reimbursement of $60,404.

“These are for kids who may not be able to get a meal over the summer months when school is out,” Mascarenas said. “Now, they can get two each day.”

The program served 7,830 breakfast meals, totaling $2.18 per meal. For lunch, there were 11,292 meals served at an average price of $3.83 per meal. In total, over $17,000 was paid out for the breakfast program and over $43,000 for the lunch program. ■ The below graphs shows the number of breakfast and lunch meals distributed through each mealsite in Essex County for the months of July and August 2017.

By Pete DeMola EDITOR

ELIZABETHTOWN | People come to the Adirondacks to escape from urban woes.

But the growth of smog in the High Peaks is more likely than you think, say environmental advocacy groups as the latest effort to roll back Obama-era environmental regulations clicked into place last week.

Air pollution generated in Pennsylvania, Ohio and Kentucky is carried by upper air currents across the mountaintops of the Adirondack Park, leading to smog, a problem more associated with urban areas.

“At 3,500 to 4,000 feet, visitors could be breathing air as bad as it is in Times Square,” said John Sheehan, a spokesman for the Adirondack Council.

U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Scott Pruitt last week signed a measure to repeal the Clean Power Plan, a policy to curb greenhouse gas emissions from coal-fired power plants.

Green groups blasted the decision, citing the potential disastrous effects on the Adirondack Park, rolling back years of progress after the 1990 Clean Air Act led to recovery from some of the worst acid rain damage in the nation, killing trees and poisoning fish.

“This is an enormous setback for U.S. policy on climate change and will have negative impacts in the Adirondacks as progress on significant reductions in acid rain over the past 20 years may be lost,” said Peter Bauer, executive director of Protect the Adirondacks.

Not only will the repeal of the Clean Power Plan — which assigned each state a goal for reducing emissions — jeopardize the protection of the Adirondack ecosystem, but so will projected budget cuts at the EPA, including programs to monitor acid rain.

The region’s largest green group is leaning on Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-Willsboro) and her connection with House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wisc.) to ensure the Adirondack Park isn’t left twisting in the wind.

“We’re really going to count on them to move forward on this budget proposal and make sure EPA’s acid rain program continues,” Sheehan said. “She needs to do this.”

STALLED

The Clean Power Plan is a set of rules that

www.suncommunitynews.com

established goals for reducing carbon dioxide emissions from fossil-fueled electricity plants through a national trading system.

While the initiative had never taken effect after being blocked by the courts, pollution control equipment had already been installed at 36 midwestern coal-burning power plants, Sheehan said in an email.

But the equipment hadn’t been turned on, which is why the Adirondack Council joined the State of Maryland and a coalition of environmental and health organizations in a lawsuit against the EPA. “Turning on the equipment in warm weather — as is required under the Clean Air Act — would save lives and prevent environmental damage by reducing smog and acid rain significantly,” said Sheehan.

Overall, the initiative was expected to reduce acid rain an additional 25 percent in the northeast by 2030, the council said.

State officials have joined U.S. Sens. Chuck Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand, both Democrats, in condemning the rollbacks: Gov. Andrew Cuomo called the decision “reckless” and said New York will continue to be a green energy leader, citing state efforts to achieving 50 percent of electricity from renewables by 2030.

Following the decision to pull out of the Paris Accord, Cuomo cobbled together a coalition of 14 states, as well as Puerto Rico, who have pledged to meet those goals.

“Climate change is a profound threat to our planet, and it cannot be wished away by denial,” Cuomo said.

State Attorney General Eric Schneiderman said he would sue the EPA over what he said was the agency missing a statutory deadline for designating areas of the country impacted by unhealthy levels of ground-level ozone.

“One in three New Yorkers are breathing dangerous levels of smog pollution,” Schneiderman said. “By ignoring critical deadlines for cutting this pollution, the Trump EPA is turning its back on the health and safety of millions of Americans.”

Repealing the Clean Power Plan is not a done deal: The EPA is required to go through a formal public comment period before being finalized.

The agency must also offer a replacement rule.

SAVING FUNDS

Pulling out of the Paris Accord and the rollback of the Clean Power Plan are two of the more headline-grabbing issues when

In the wake of federal environmental protection rollbacks, the Adirondack Council said they’re counting on Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-Willsboro) to save the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s budget for acid rain research and monitoring. PICTURED ABOVE: Former U.S. Secretary of the Army John McHugh looks at a map of the Adirondack Park with Adirondack Council Executive Director William Janeway, Adirondack Council Communications Director John Sheehan and Postal Regulatory Commission Chairman Robert Taub, who served as McHugh’s chief of staff in Congress, at a meeting in July.

it comes to the Trump administration’s dismantling of environmental safeguards.

But the administration is also weighing deep budget cuts to the EPA. While President Trump initially proposed a 31 percent reduction in the agency’s budget, the Republican-led House has softened the blow.

But the House 2018 budget resolution includes a 16 percent cut in the EPA’s Science & Technology budget, the source of the lake and stream chemistry testing and air-quality monitoring grants for the Adirondacks.

“While this is only half of the cut Trump’s executive budget proposed, we have been assured it would result in deep cuts to the research and monitoring grants,” Sheehan said.

This includes about $6.8 million in annual grant funding for the Adirondack Lakes Survey Corporation, the Ray Brook-based agency that has conducted monthly testing in dozens of local lakes since the 1980s to monitor the impacts of acid rain on soil and water.

NYS Energy Research & Development Authority (NYSERDA) awards the grants and oversees the research conducted in the

IN YOUR

park. While the agency, said Sheehan, is confident it can still do a good job of monitoring whether clean air laws are working, the cuts would still hurt — particularly considering funding has been kept flat for the past quarter-century.

“So the state has slowly assumed more of the financial burden for what should be entirely federally funded research,” he said.

With adequate federal funding, NYSERDA could focus more work on methods to restore the park’s ecosystems once federal pollution controls cause the damage to stop, Sheehan said.

LONG HISTORY OF SUPPORT

As federal lawmakers continue to try to reach a budget deal, Sheehan and Adirondack Council Executive Director William Janeway traveled to Washington, D.C., where they met with members of the North Country delegation, including Rep. Paul Tonko (D-Amsterdam) and former army secretary and Rep. John McHugh, who now works as a lobbyist.

The group views Stefanik as critical in their efforts to save the research grant funding. » Stefanik Cont. on pg. 5

» Stefanik Cont. from pg. 4

“Congresswoman Stefanik disagreed with the President’s budget request and worked throughout the appropriations process to ensure the needs of our district were met,” said Tom Flanagin, a spokesman.

Flanagin characterized Stefanik’s meeting with the Adirondack Council as “very productive,” noting that the conversation touched on “many of the group’s priorities, including acid rain.”

The lawmaker, he said, is continuing to work with the group to support appropriations initiatives.

Stefanik also went to bat for the funds in brief remarks during floor debate last month.

“Thanks to the work of the EPA to support efforts to halt this epidemic, we are recovering in spectacular fashion,” Stefanik said. “Trout populations are returning to once dead lakes, waters and trees are getting healthier, and the park is a booming economic engine for our district.”

Stefanik cited a visit to the lab where the water samples collected by the Adirondack Lake Survey Corporation are tested. “(I) ask that you help me ensure that the grant funding for this important work is renewed,” she said. “The EPA’s programs and grants have been essential in restoring this ecological gem in my district. I look forward to continuing

“Stefanik has alerted the leaders of key committees that the acid rain monitoring money is important to her district,” Sheehan said.

But whether that will translate into a funding restoration remains unknown, Sheehan said.

There’s been a long history of Republican support for clean water in the North Country, said Sheehan, citing efforts by former U.S. Rep. Gerry Solomon, a Republican who chaired hearings on acid rain despite being among the staunchest conservatives of his time.

“He was also a sportsman and knew acid rain was real, even if the chemistry of how it damaged soils, trees and fish was still being discovered at the time,” Sheehan said.

Legislation was imminent, but was derailed following the Sept. 11 attacks.

“Now we’re just in a position to hang on to what we have in terms of research and monitoring money,” said Sheehan.

FUNDED ABOVE REQUEST

Stefanik last month voted for an appropriations bill that funded the EPA $1.9 billion above the Trump administration’s request.

Obituaries Raymond (Brud) Fields

WITHERBEE | Raymond (Brud) Fields age 78 passed away unexpectedly at his home on Oct. 8. 2017.

He was born in Witherbee on Nov. 19, 1938, the son of Raymond Sr. and Jennie (O’Kusky) Fields.

Raymond grew up in Witherbee and met the love of his life, Dorothy (Bigelow), in Wadhams, with whom he began his 60 year marriage.

They lived in Witherbee, had two sons and started their life’s voyage here.

He worked for the Town of Moriah.

They moved to Connecticut, where he worked for Pratt and Whitney. After residing there, they moved to Rochester where he worked construction.

to work with my colleagues in Congress to support these important programs.”

SHIFTING GEARS

Following a 2015 vote in which she voted to reject EPA limits for coal-fueled power plants, Stefanik has repositioned herself as a GOP leader on green issues.

The second-term lawmaker is a member of the bipartisan House Climate Solutions Caucus and has discussed the need to develop clean and renewable energy in New York’s 21st Congressional District, including wind and hydropower, the subject of a hearing chaired last month by the lawmaker in her capacity as chairwoman of the Republican Policy Committee’s Millennial Task Force.

But Stefanik, a frequent critic of executive orders, ultimately walked a fine on the cancellation of the Clean Power Plan, an initiative she never supported.

Pruitt has said that the Obama administration “exceeded its legal authority” in creating the plan — and the lawmaker agrees.

“Congresswoman Stefanik believes President Obama was wrong to circumvent Congress with the Clean Power Plan,” Flanagin said. “When

Congress is circumvented in the process, the policy can easily be undone from one Administration to the other. Congress, not federal bureaucrats, should set our national energy policy.”

Sheehan said environmentalists are also concerned over efforts to tap into new federal lands in an effort to revitalize the coal industry — including efforts to open the Powder River Basin in Montana and Wyoming.

Flanagin did not directly respond when asked if Stefanik had a position on the potential reopening of that facility.

But he did refer a reporter to a House resolution sponsored by the lawmaker in March that calls for “using American innovation to improve environmental stewardship.”

While the resolution acknowledged the impact of climate change on the economy and changing weather patterns — including catastrophic weather events like heatwaves and drought cycles — the document stopped short of offering a concrete roadmap.

It read, “any efforts to mitigate the risks of, prepare for, or otherwise address our changing climate and its effects should not constrain the United States economy, especially in regards to global competitiveness.” ■

Returning to Witherbee he worked at National Lead until settling in Westport where they built their dream home, motel, service station and loving family.

Raymond loved harness racing, gardening and especially spending time with grandchildren, friends and family at home, on trips to different lands or at the family pool.

He is survived by his wife Dorothy; sons Dan, Richard and wife Dawn of Westport; grandchildren Jennifer King and husband Nathan, Christopher Fields, Covey Fields-Wolin and husband Joshua, Jessica Howard and husband Michael; great-grandchildren Raegan King, Riley Fields, and Dalton King; uncles Carl O’Kusky and wife Joyce, Tookie (John) O’Kusky; aunt Josephine Yelle; and many cousins, nieces, nephews and great nieces and nephews.

He is predeceased by his parents; brother Wallace Fields and wife Gean; sister Janice Colburn and nephew Wallace (Jimmy) Fields.

Calling hours were held Saturday, Oct. 14 from 10-11

Thoughts from Behind the Pressline

Reality check Popularity, truth, morality, politics and common sense hit the fan last week when the Harvey Weinstein

By Dan Alexander story broke.

• PUBLISHER • Certain behaviors are only allowed to exist when we choose not to address them.

Powerful men and women, with the authority, money and the backing of powerful institutions have been able to stroll along through the centuries, untouched by their poor conduct, until suddenly it’s as though we’ve awoken from a bad dream and it’s no longer acceptable.

Yesterday, while unspeakable, it was okay to keep this behavior under wraps. Today, suddenly everyone is condemning what they knew all along was wrong and find it hard to publicly accept why they were silent.

Poor old Harvey, only yesterday he had it all — even an employment contract allowing for a simple financial fine when such behavior arose.

He was a Hollywood star shining as bright as one can get with every door and opportunity wide open.

Now all of sudden as a result of a news story that was almost shelved, if not for a persistent journalist, Harvey is thrown to curb, seen as the worst possible pariah.

Sadly what Harvey and others like him have done is nothing new. To some degree, we are all complicit in looking the other way when we hear about this type of behavior.

It occurs all around us every day.

We enjoy reading books, watching movies and TV shows about this form of behavior. It takes place in the halls of government, churches, schools, higher institutions, boardrooms and most likely even in our own backyard.

None of us are perfect. We all suffer from the human condition. But at some point, we need to wake up and look around at where we are going and what’s taking place, especially with those of great influence and power.

When we allow ourselves to be duped by lies and assurances that “things” are acceptable and we go along with what’s popular even though deep down we know right from wrong, well that’s when we need to take a hard reality check.

No one talks much about a conscience these days, but for those who still use one, it can make a big difference in one life.

Looking beyond the trapping of our world to a higher authority can serve us well if we take the time to pause and listen occasionally.

It might just keep you from waking up like old Harvey some day. ■

Opinion

suncommunitynews.com/opinions

From the Editorial Board

What’s at stake for Adirondackers on 2017 ballot initiatives

The stakes are high on Election Day for anyone who lives in the Adirondack Park.

Three proposals will appear on the ballot on Nov. 7. But don’t expect poll workers to tell you — it’s illegal for them to do so.

These are three separate and distinct ballot questions, and are not related to one another.

This means you can vote in favor of one, for instance, and against another.

PROPOSAL 1: HOLD A CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION

Convening a constitutional convention — or “con-con” for short — is a once-in-ageneration opportunity to completely rewrite the state constitution.

For the first time since 1997, voters statewide will be asked on Election Day whether they want to hold one.

If approved, delegates from around the state will meet beginning in April 2019.

Advocates say a con-con would provide a fertile opportunity to overhaul the entire political system, including curbing the state’s entrenched culture of corruption.

A con-con will also be a way to enshrine certain protections in the law, including safeguarding voting rights, implementing campaign finance reform and protecting against sexual and gender discrimination.

Critics have cited a laundry list of concerns associated with opening up the state’s founding document to tinkering.

Some are valid, like the fears that a con-con could erode environmental safeguards, including the Forever Wild clause that protects the Adirondack Park.

Others are not, like a price tag that has been floated at $350 million, a number erroneously generated when the cost of the 1967 convention was adjusted twice for inflation.

Critics believe the con-con will open the door to special interests dominating the process.

We agree.

We oppose the con-con because pro-reform groups have refused to rule out lobbyists from serving as the some 204 delegates

who will oversee the process— an instant dealbreaker.

Of course Albany is already dominated by special interests.

But if the con-con is to be a true return of power to the people as advocates claim, than banning lobbyists should have been a no-brainer.

The failure to do so in this era when money is flooding politics does not instill us with any guarantee that the process will not be fatally flawed from the start.

PROPOSAL 2: ALLOWS JUDGES TO REVOKE THE STATE PENSION OF A PUBLIC OFFICER CONVICTED OF A FELONY RELATED TO OFFICER’S DUTIES

Drain the swamp? Albany has been a punchline for political rot and corruption for decades.

In convictions that have since been overturned, state Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver and Senate Majority Leader Dean Skelos were convicted on corruption charges in 2015.

Despite their legal troubles, the former leaders are allowed to collect their taxpayer-funded pensions.

For a local example, look no further than Joyce Mitchell, the civilian prison worker who aided in the escape of two murderers from Clinton Correctional in 2015.

While Mitchell was convicted of charges related to the escape and is serving up to seven years in prison, she’s still eligible for cashing out from her $55,157 per year state job.

Under Proposal 2, a pension may be reduced or revoked if a public officer is convicted of a felony related to their official duties.

Th is commonsense legislation already has broad lawmaker support, having passed both houses of the state legislature in two consecutive sessions.

Voters should now make the legislation final.

PROPOSAL 3: CREATES A 250-ACRE LAND BANK TO PROVIDE FOREST PRESERVE LAND FOR LOCAL PROJECTS

Combating “isms” in the North Country

To the Editor: My wife recently shared with me a guest column in The Sun

by Mr. Daniel Anello.

In the column, Mr. Anello spoke of his experiences growing up in the North Country as a black kid of mixed race, being called the “N” word on the school bus the very first day and being made to feel excluded from other activities.

It is indeed unfortunate that Mr. Anello ran into the unthinking and unfeeling “ism” that he did.

It shows that the fear-driven basis of this, and other “isms,” can be manifested most anywhere, that it is not the sole possession of

Th is Adirondack-central proposal will create a 250 acre “Health and Safety Land Account” in the Adirondack Park and Catskills.

We support Proposal 3.

The measure will return control to local officials and reduce bureaucratic interference from Albany.

At present, local officials must ask the state legislature to amend the state constitution every time they need to access state land for infrastructure projects.

This ranges from telephone pole upgrades, culvert repairs, bridge work and projects to ensure safe and clean drinking water and broadband access.

Amending the constitution each time can take up to three years, a process that is also fraught with political uncertainty considering lawmakers from Brooklyn and Buffalo are largely unfamiliar with Adirondack issues.

And local officials don’t always have the resources to plead their case.

It’s a disadvantage applied only to localities in the Adirondack Park.

If voters approve Proposal 3, the state will purchase 250 acres of land to add to the state Forest Preserve.

Local governments would be authorized to purchase small slices of acreage from this account under a process administered by the state Department of Environmental Conservation with legislative oversight.

Proposal 3 is not a means to erode environmental protections — nor is it an attempt to cater to private developers — but rather a way to protect public safety and streamline government operations.

The measure has universal support across the Adirondack Park, including environmental advocacy organizations, state and local officials and business groups — all of whom helped forge the agreement over years of painstaking negotiations.

Voters should support this commonsense initiative.

Election Day is on Tuesday, Nov. 7. ■ -The Sun Community News Editorial Board

some far-off place.

It can be found right here in the North Country as soon as we walk out the front door.

And the “isms” are not limited to just race!

There are the fears of someone of another faith tradition, gender, political persuasion, or sexual orientation/expression. I have heard people talk, or refer despairingly, to others they perceive as different from them, which is unfortunate, for these people are often not as different as they seem.

Rising above a simplistic return of the fear, Mr. Anello does suggest a simple, yet effective, method of reducing the fear, by engaging, rather than demeaning or demonizing, someone different from us. » Letters Cont. on pg. 7 A paid advertisement will be based on standard advertising rates taking into consideration size and frequency according to the current rate card at the open advertising rate.

I would also add that, as part of this, we need to think about what we say, how we say it, and how it might be perceived by others. While certain words and references may seem harmless to us, they can mean something vastly different to someone else.

I believe that the vast majority of people in this country, and world, do not ascribe to the fear-driven “isms” that manifest themselves. They hold to the belief that all people are created equal, and that each person should have the chance to pursue “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness!”

A tip of the hat to Mr. Anello for encouraging us to do so.

Disappointed in how fraud call was handled

To the Editor: Just wanted to say that last week my father, who is 83 years old, received a call from someone who stated that our entire family is being investigated for tax fraud.

Being elderly, this scared him and he did not know what to do! He informed me, his son, what happened.

Having the number they called from on his caller ID, I called the New York State Police non-emergency line.

I must say, and this is the reason for the writing of this letter, how utterly useless that call was.

Conflict of interest in play with Schroon Lake Stewart’s vote

To the Editor: I am responding to the letter sent from one of our public representatives, Roger Friedman, as to his explanation of his public vote on the proposed Stewart’s expansion.

Once again, Mr. Friedman is attempting to modify his position in the Stewart’s expansion after the public outcry when the Town Board denied the zoning changes to allow the expansion.

It bears noting that Mr. Friedman’s position on the expansion should not be considered due to his obvious conflict of interest as Tops landlord. His family has received enormous sums of money from Stewart’s competition.

We should note that the Tops store was built with low interest public financing on over $2 million given to the Friedman family.

With that obvious conflict any ethical public official would have recused themselves from any of the discussion or vote on the proposed expansion.

Furthermore, his feeble attempt to change his position after the public outcry is a typical political ploy.

The facts are that after the zoning changes, the town board

would not and should not complete any site plan review that Mr. Friedman represents as his reasoning for not voting in favor of the Stewart’s expansion.

The proper forum for Mr. Friedman’s alleged concerns is the planning board, not the town board, as they have jurisdiction over the site plan review.

Once again, as he has done in the past to delay or stop projects that affect his financial status, Mr. Friedman is attempting to justify his behavior by confusing the public to insure his re-election.

His impotent attempt to gain sympathy by claiming he was upset by an anti-Semitic comment which was obviously an attempt at humor is a new low even for him.

The time is now for a change in our town.

Palmer: Essex County budget almost ready Essex County supers praise success of five year plan as county cruises towards meeting cap

By Keith Lobdell STA FF W RITER

ELIZABETHTOWN | Essex County Manager Dan Palmer said the tentative 2018 spending plan is nearly complete.

“We are going to take one more good look through it but we feel we are in good shape for the upcoming year,” Palmer said in the Finance Committee Meeting on Monday.

Palmer said the gap between the proposed spending plan, which will be unveiled next month in full as a tentative budget, fills a gap of around $3.2 million between the needs of the county and the state-imposed tax levy cap with fund balance and other means.

“Using $1.9 million in fund balance is around where we were last year, and the rest can be removed by using more fund balance or taking out some of the one-time capital projects which can be funded in other ways.”

Palmer said the projects are in the 2018 budget as of now, but could be removed and funded through bonding or other funding

methods in order to bring the budget and tax cap numbers closer together.

The manager added a drop in insurance also helped.

“Had a break in the health insurance with the reduction with the overall costs,” Palmer said. “We will make the cap.”

Palmer and Finance chairman Tom Scozzafava also credited the department heads for their work on the budget.

“The departments had some of the best budgets I have ever seen,” Scozzafava said.

“They stayed within the lines and did a great job working with us and looking at their budget.”

“They have been good about looking at only looking for the funding we need to fun the county,” added Palmer.

North Elba Supervisor Roby Politi pointed out this was the final year of the five year plan instituted by Palmer to bring the county’s spending more in line.

“Five years ago was difficult days and there was a lot of contention,” Politi said. “We stuck to that plan and it turned out to be the right thing to do and we are now financially stable and on our feet.”

“Our fiscal stress rating is at .12 percent (adding the example of Franklin County, which is at 67 percent), which means we’re doing well and doing our job,” Palmer replied.

“I thank the board for the support they have given us over the past five years. We showed

this was the right way to run a county budget.”

NEW TAX SALE

Essex County Treasurer Mike Diskin said the next property sale for Essex County will take place Nov. 30.

“The order is in the judges hands and when we get that we will start foreclosures for the properties and the date is set with the auction company,” Diskin said. “We will have a good six to seven weeks to get the sale.”

Scozzafava offered a concern that some people may try to buy the properties back from the county at auction.

“These individuals should be barred from ever being able to take part on these bids,” he said. “These buildings are in a situation that never should have happened but they did.”

Diskin said something could be written into the agreement, but there would be ways around it.

The issue is they will have families come in or they will create an LLC, so there are many ways to go around it,” Diskin said.

Palmer suggested trying to take over a property in dire straits as a “test.”

“It might be something that we do as a test where we grab a property off the auction, then tear it down and see if it pays off to do that,” he said. “The reality

Elizabethtown Library readies tech workshop Library hopes to jumpstart technical assistance series Kim Dedam STA FF W RITER

ELIZABETHTOWN | A tech workshop at Elizabethtown Library will provide free computer, tablet and smartphone assistance to area residents.

The workshops set for Oct. 23 and Oct. 25 are the first of what the library hopes will become an ongoing technical assistance series to help people learn new skills on their digital and computer equipment.

Angela Heroux, director of the

Elizabethtown Library, said the workshop series came in response to a need for technical assistance brought to the library board.

And rather than provide a class, the workshop is planned to attend to one-on-one issues people might be having with their equipment.

“We have been approached since I came aboard to have an informative and instructional workshop related to snags people encounter with a computer, laptop, tablet and even their smartphones,” Heroux said.

“In our area, many services for simple instruction can be sparse and costly. It has been on my mind for awhile and the response is already been positive.”

The library is also coordinating with computer technical instructors at the Elizabethtown-Lewis Central School district to have students come in and help troubleshoot or assist with questions.

“If this is successful, we will extend these workshops through the year.”

The inaugural tech workshops at Elizabethtown Library is planned for Monday and Wednesday, October 23 and 25, from 5 until 6:30 p.m. in the E’town Library.

It is free and open to the public.

Four vie for post as Highway Super in Jay Candidates share experience, goals in race to oversee roads, water and sewer operations Kim Dedam STA FF W RITER

JAY | In Jay, the position of highway superintendent is a four-person race with independent petitioners Erin Himmel and William Lincoln joining Democratic candidate Kevin Zaumetzer and Republican candidate John Pulsifer to replace outgoing incumbent Robbie Lincoln.

The general election is Nov. 7 with polls open from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m.

Erin Himmel

Age: 36 Occupation: Machine equipment operator Party: Independent.

WHAT ARE YOUR QUALIFICATIONS?

I have 20 years experience in commercial and residential construction, employed for 16 years with the Town of Jay Highway Department.

Appointed deputy highway superintendent under two separate highway superintendents.

Worked closely on planning and design meetings with the AuSable River Association as well as the state Department of Environmental Conservation and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.

Interact regularly with Essex County Department of Public Works and Soil & Water.

Involved in the procurement of heavy equipment for the Highway Department based on my knowledge of equipment capabilities.

Extensive experience operating, repairing and maintaining all types of heavy highway equipment.

Prior experience includes working with large construction companies in the Glens Falls area installing water, sewage and storm drain infrastructure.

Public service experience includes: member, AuSable Forks Fire Department for 15 years, 10 years as assistant chief; Essex County Deputy Fire Coordinator; past member of the Town of Jay Disaster Committee; past member, Au Sable Forks Volunteer Ambulance Service (seven years), assistant chief (two years), chief for three years.

Experience budgeting and purchasing, as well as supervisory oversight of paid staff and volunteer members.

WHAT DO YOU HOPE TO ACCOMPLISH IF ELECTED?

If elected, my main consideration is public safety and keeping a low and appropriate tax rate while still providing proper services to residents of the Town of Jay. I will assess tasks so they can be managed efficiently and economically but will never compromise the safety of town residents.

I may not be able to do anything about the weather, but if I get a call from a resident or a member of the town board, I will take care of it.

If the town board gives me a complaint, I will go to the house and introduce myself.

If I can, I fix their problem; if I can’t, I tell them. I will always be honest and upfront with taxpayers. They deserve it.

William Lincoln Sr.

Age: 72 Occupation: Retired, excavation business.

Party: Independent.

WHAT ARE YOUR QUALIFICATIONS?

Volunteer for Jay Fire Department for nearly 50 years. I have been in construction all of my life, building roads for town neighborhood development, with water lines and septic systems.

WHAT DO YOU HOPE TO ACCOMPLISH IF ELECTED?

I am going to make some changes in the way it’s been run for quite a few years. I’ve always had a private business and you can’t reach into the funds, you’ve got to earn it.

Changes would affect spending in the Highway Department. I will probably look into the number of people employed at the department. Superintendent has parks and sewer all to one man, and I want to split that up into separate departments, adding a sewer and water department on its own.

John Pulsifer Jr.

Age: 49 Occupation: Mechanic equipment operator, Town of Jay, 17 years.

Party: Republican.

WHAT ARE YOUR QUALIFICATIONS?

Member, Upper Jay Fire Department, 24 years. Member, Wilmington Ambulance Squad, five years. Volunteer, town recreation programs.

I have been out visiting the people and worked with the public for many years.

I am a truck driver and mow lawns for town properties. I am a family person, that is for sure. If I’m elected, (outgoing incumbent) Robbie Lincoln would be my deputy.

WHAT DO YOU HOPE TO ACCOMPLISH IF ELECTED?

Draining roads, ditching roads, brushing trees back, scheduling and putting in new sidewalks: This type of work saves the roads. There is a lot to be done in four years.

Kevin R. Zaumetzer

Age: 59 Occupation: Deputy superintendent of highways,Town of Jay, appointed three years ago. Employee at Jay Highway Department for 30 years.

Party: Democratic, Independent.

WHAT ARE YOUR QUALIFICATIONS?

As deputy superintendent of highways, I attend Cornell University Highway Training School annually.

There, you learn how to properly maintain both blacktop and dirt roads; proper ditching of roadways; proper culvert placement and maintenance, in addition to highway law.

I also have training and experience in putting together budget and numerous other topics, such as being responsible for over 140 lane miles of black-top roads, over 40 miles of dirt roads, and overseeing three water districts, one sewer district and 13 parks, including inspections twice a year for the four playgrounds.

Member, Au Sable Forks Volunteer Ambulance Service volunteering, served as president.

Member, Au Sable Forks Fire Department since 1981, having served in every capacity except Chief. Fire Commissioner for the Board of Fire Commissioners for the Au Sable Forks Fire District for 13 years.

WHAT DO YOU HOPE TO ACCOMPLISH IF ELECTED?

Zaumetzer said he has an extensive fouryear plan to reopen and clear ditches, remove brush and trees encroaching on roadways in Jay, along with priorities for new pavement.

The entire plan is available via social media and in the online Jay Community News.

Key items include culvert replacement at Au Sable Dr., Grove Rd., and Hazeltine Rd. The four-year plan also looks to secure $300,000 of grant money received for infrastructure repair; and work with Essex County Soil & Water to secure grant funding for the repair of four major bank slides on the Carey Rd., which is post-Irene damage that threatens road safety and stability.

I will continue participating in the shared service program with all municipalities. ■

Ryan Leaf was one of the most promising collegiate football players of his time, and rivaled Peyton Manning for the Heisman trophy. In 1998, he was the number two draft pick behind Manning. Football was Leafs life, but the pressure to perform on such an elite level was more than he was prepared to deal with, ultimately leading to the demise of his professional football career, retiring in 2003.

In 2006, Ryan took a coaching job with the West Texas A&M football team. However Leaf still struggled with his mental health and began to abuse prescription opiates due to a previous football injury. By 2012, he was breaking into people's homes to feed his addiction.

Prison followed soon alter. Leaf describes the time in prison as a time of "spiritual growth and humility': Today, Ryan Leaf is the voice for the recovery community. Out of his own desolation, Ryan hopes to inspire others to begin their road to recovery. He chooses to share his story dealing with mental health issues and substance abuse in order to reach the person who cannot yet imagine a better life for themselves.

Bridge work completed in Lake Placid, Au Sable Forks State-funded projects dovetail with state report detailing condition of local bridges

The statewide bridge effort will also reduce the potential for highway travel delays and detours during heavy rains and floods, according to press materials, and will ensure continued access to critical lifesaving services in the event of an emergency.

State Sen. Betty Little (R-Queensbury) said strong infrastructure has many benefits and a lasting impact.

“Our region is heavily dependent on tourism, and quality roads and bridges certainly help convey a welcoming message to visitors,” Little said.

By Pete DeMola EDITOR

NORTH ELBA | Two new bridges over the West Branch of the AuSable River are now open.

The replacements of the 85-year-old structure on Route 73 near the 1980 Olympic ski jumps in North Elba and a two-lane bridge in downtown Au Sable Forks were completed last week.

The project saw removal of the old Route 73 bridges, as well as guardrail installation, shoulder work, plantings and wetland construction, according to the governor’s office.

The effort will improve driver, biker and pedestrian safety, traffic flow and congestion issues, and provides more resilient bridge and road infrastructure against flooding events.

Additional sidewalk work on both sides of the bridge in Au Sable Forks remains to be completed.

Minor work at both sites is scheduled to continue until June 2018.

The $9.9 million project is part of a broader $542 million state effort to rebuild ailing infrastructure, including 100 bridges statewide.

“Across the state, we are building new, stateof-the-art bridges to replace vulnerable structures and dramatically improve infrastructure resiliency in the face of extreme weather,” said Gov. Andrew Cuomo in a statement.

Route 73 serves as a critical route to Lake Placid and the High Peaks, the governor said, and “reliable and efficient transportation is key to increasing tourism and growing the economy.”

REPORT RESULTS

The repairs come the same week the state Comptroller’s Office released a report revealing bridges owned by local governments need an estimated $27.4 billion in repairs, an amount Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli called “staggering.”

The report found local bridges — which tend to be smaller and carry less traffic than their state counterparts — are more likely to be structurally deficient than state-owned bridges, 12.8 percent to 9 percent.

While units labeled “structurally deficient” are considered safe to drive on, they either have load-bearing elements in poor condition or are prone to repeated flooding.

The overall percentage of structurally deficient local bridges declined from 16.7 percent to 12.8 percent from 2002 to 2016, while the state’s percentage held relatively flat at around 9 percent.

At nearly 76 percent, New York City has the highest proportion of “functionally obsolete” bridges on a regional level. Long Island ranks 40.6 percent, while the North Country fares far better at 15.3 percent.

The counties with the highest percentage of structurally deficient local bridges are Seneca at 34.6 percent, Cayuga at 27.6 percent and Hamilton County at 23.8 percent.

Work is complete on a project to replace the Route 73 “ski jump” bridges in Essex County.

Photo provided/New York State Department of Environmental Conservation

In Franklin County, 19.4 percent of bridges were deemed structurally deficient; Clinton, 18.2 percent, and Warren, 16.9 percent.

Essex County scored significantly lower with just 8.4 percent meeting that designation.

Specific bridges were not identified in the report. But as part of last year’s budget process, Essex County set aside $5 million for bridge bonds.

Of the county’s 178 bridges, 19 have been flagged as critical, county officials said last year.

Twelve of those could utilize a detour as opposed to temporary bridges, which would collectively cost between $1.8 and $2.4 million.

Concerns about how local governments will find funding for repairs is growing as Washington, D.C. considers changes to infrastructure aid, DiNapoli said.

“These structures are aging and the cost for repairs will likely only increase over time,” DiNapoli said. “Many local governments understand the importance of long-term planning for their infrastructure needs, but they will need help. While the state has taken steps to make funds for repairs available, the assistance of the federal government has also been critical. Difficult decisions lie ahead, but these infrastructure needs must be addressed.” ■

Manufacturing, lodging and tourism-related projects flagged for state investment

By Pete DeMola EDITOR

PLATTSBURGH | A number of glamorous lodging initiatives and heavy-duty machinery upgrades are among the projects flagged by regional economic development experts as leading priorities to receive millions in state funding.

Top items included in the North Country Regional Economic Development Council (NCREDC)’s proposal are machinery upgrades at manufacturing facilities across the region, including International Paper (Ticonderoga) and General Composites (Willsboro), Bionique Testing Laboratories and Carpe Insectae (Saranac Lake).

Requests range from the low five figures to $1.7 million for IP to upgrade several pieces of equipment — including the modification of a superheater and production upgrades that the NCREDC says will allow the plant to be more competitive.

Major hotel projects are also being eyed.

NCREDC is seeking $2 million for the construction of a 80-room hotel at the Plattsburgh International Airport — part of a constellation of ongoing state- and federal-funded upgrades at the facility — and $5.9 million for the construction of a proposed $19.6 million four-star hotel in Blue Mountain Lake replete with high-end camping known as “glamping.”

As part of a $1.8 million project, the North Creek-Indian Lake Hut-to-Hut Circuit Lodging is eying $365,000 to establish a hut-to-hut circuit in the central Adirondacks — including the construction of a 48-person “eco-lodge hostel.”

Boutique projects designed to drive tourism are also included in the application.

War Canoe Spirits Distillery is seeking $705,384 to establish a distillery and manu-

www.suncommunitynews.com

facturing operation with “tasting, dining, retail and event space” in Crown Point, a project applicants say will create six jobs.

And a start-up called Chicota, Inc. is seeking $199,000 to transform the former Dew Drop Inn in downtown Saranac Lake into a “food experience” business, including bar and restaurant, short-stay apartments, cooking school and event space — a $2.2 million effort.

The Adirondack Public Observatory is seeking $300,000 for an expansion project.

Additional lower priority items include continuing to foster broad strategies for longer term projects.

For the Olympic Village, that includes keeping the region’s global sports brand competitive, including supporting a bid to host the 2021 Special Olympics World Games and upgrades to sporting venues.

In Plattsburgh, the strategy is to keep a sustained focus on developing a skilled workforce and transforming the region into a global manufacturing hub and transportation cluster leveraging its proximity to Canada.

In all, the 21 projects across the region — including in Watertown and Ogdensburg — represent a total proposed state investment of nearly $22 million, leveraging more than $100 million in private and other funding.

Collectively, the proposed projects will support the creation of 255 new jobs, 441 indirect jobs and the retention of 756 existing ones, according to the report NCREDC submitted to the state last week.

NCREDC Co-chair and President of the North Country Chamber of Commerce Garry Douglas said the set of projects is the best the group has mustered in three years.

“This year we are proud to report that we are nearing all of our strategic aims, having progressed steadily in a cumulative way each round,” Douglas said in a statement.

The pitch is part of the Regional Economic Development Council Initiative, the statesponsored program designed to offer a collaborative, community-driven approach to

stimulate economic growth.

Each of the state’s 10 councils contain local experts and stakeholders from business, academia, local government and nongovernmental organizations.

Since 2011, the NCREDC has received $484 million through the program, including $10 million each to revitalize downtown Plattsburgh and Watertown.

Nearly 450 projects that are completed or in progress and have committed to create or retain over 6,530 jobs in the region.

A total of $4.6 billion has been invested since the program’s inception.

‘DISTRACTING ATTENTION’

The state is on track this year to award $800 million across all 10 regions, including up to $225 million in performance-based grants and tax credits from Empire State Development, and approximately $575 million from two dozen state agency programs.

While Gov. Andrew Cuomo has lauded the program as a departure from the secretive “pork barrel” spending of the past — “It’s a waste of money, we did it for a lot of years, it failed,”

The Valley News Sun | October 21, 2017 • 11

he told Politico New York in February — the program has come scrutiny by lawmakers and fiscal watchdog groups as at best, overly optimistic and at worst, lacking oversight and tainted by scandals that have marred other economic initiatives, including the Buffalo Billion.

Critics have also criticized the program as taxpayer-financed subsidies to private businesses and developers.

“Whether they involve financing an enormous, complex $750 million manufacturing plant — or, on the other hand, distributing five- and six-figure grants to countless craft breweries, farm distilleries and ice cream shops and other trendy micro-enterprises across the state — government economic development programs are no substitute for a better business climate,” testified E.J. McMahon, president of the Empire Center, at a state Assembly Economic Development Oversight Hearing in 2016.

“Unfortunately, more often than not, economic development programs actually serve to distract attention from the state’s failure to improve that climate.”

The 2017 REDC awards will be announced before the end of the year. ■

Playing for Sara Lady Bombers volleyball team, community comes together for teammate

By Keith Lobdell SPORTS EDITOR

LAKE PLACID | The Lake Placid community came together with the Lady Blue Bombers varsity volleyball team Oct. 16 to help out a member of the team battling Hodgkin Lymphoma.

The “Paint the Gym Lavender” night to benefit the family of Lady Bomber Sara McKillip saw students, family and friends dressed in a sea of light purple to help raise funds for the McKillip family as they pay expenses for treatment and care.

“Cancer does not care, but fortunately for us, you do,” said father David McKillip in addressing the fans assembled in the Lake Placid gymnasium. “Thank you to Sara’s teammates, to Sara’s friends, to the administration, to the community for coming out and showing their support, and thank you coach (Donna) Moody, for all you have done.”

Moody thanked all those who helped plan and prepare for the night, and said it was extra special that Sara was not only attending the game, but was cleared to play.

“It made me feel so nice,” said McKillip after the game. “I do not think I was expecting as many people. It was so overwhelming but I want to thank everyone who came, because it made me feel so nice. I think we did really well as a team and Peru is such a nice team and it was great to take a game from them.

We played with our hearts tonight.”

Team captain and sister Kaleigh McKillip said it “meant the world” to her to be able to play in this game with her Sara.

“It was really nice to see her have a good time and come out and play hard,” Kaleigh said. “She has been going through some hard

stuff so tonight was a big thing to have her come out for me and everyone in the gym.”

The elder McKillip sister said she was very impressed by the community support.

“I was amazed, but I was not surprised because I know what this community is like and how they come together,” said Kaleigh. “It was amazing to see the entire gym turn purple.”

Agreeing with the McKillips was Wilmington Supervisor Randy Preston, who came to support the family.

“I came out to support this tonight because I know how important the support was for me when I was diagnosed in April,” Preston said, referring to a brain tumor.

“It’s just amazing how this community comes out to help each other.”

Members of the team also talked about how great the evening was for everyone involved.

“The family are really good friends with the team and we all just wanted to show our support and help them get through this tough time,” said captain Laurel Miller.

“We’re always wondering how is Sara today and we really just wanted to show her and the family that we are their family to and we are there no matter what, and the community is here to,” added captain Graci Daby.

“This group of kids is about everyone else and they have always been very supportive of one another,” said Moody. “From the beginning, their thoughts were to do whatever they can to support Sara and their family. It shows you why it is so nice to live in small community. Everyone is willing to put in that extra effort to help. To see that whole student section — and everyone — wearing purple was just amazing.”

Moody also said several other teams had reached out to her, telling fans before the game that Ogdensburg Free Academy, who had participated in the Lake Placid tournament recently, donated $600 to the cause through a bake sale. ■

Dolphins CEO offers Sectionals are here pep talk to youngsters From the Sidelines

College for Every Student event brings former Dolphins CEO to Willsboro

By Keith Lobdell STA FF W RITER

WILLSBORO | How did a blue collar boy from Brockton, Mass., go from there to being the founder of Blockbuster Entertainment, interim CEO of the Miami Dolphins and the founder of an educational program which provides a $20,000 scholarship to a Willsboro Central graduate each year?

According to Cliff Allen, it came down to the essential skills.

“Teamwork, leadership, agility, perverseness and networking,” Allen told a group of junior and senior students from Willsboro during an event hosted by College For Every Student (CFES).

“Figure out a way, yourself, to get it done,” Allen said. “You are now way ahead of where I was because you have more tools than I ever had. It takes hard work, dedication and some breaks, along with a couple of people in life who helped me out.”

Allen told them about his high school coach, who helped him submit his enrollment papers into Harvard University; and a cop who told him to always reach for the top, which helped him choose to go to the Ivy League school.

“If you have those essential skills, you do not have to be a high school hero to do what I did,” Allen said. “Dream a little bit. You may not get to that dream, but you are not hurting yourself by aiming

for that dream. Think about doing something great and fun, and getting to a place where you have options. When you get there, it is well worth it.”

Allen told students to take advantage of programs like CFES, where students can qualify to receive the Clint and Lawson (wife) Allen Scholarship.

He also said, through CFES, he and his wife were hoping to begin an SAT prep course at Willsboro through the CFES organization.

In the end, Allen told the students they had all the tools they needed, and self-motivation was now the key.

“You all have the opportunity to get there,” Allen said. “You can all do it. The only person that can stop you is yourself.” ■

HIS OWN BATTLE

“In 2011, they told me I was not a candidate for treatment at the time, and to go home and put my things in order,” recalled Kaifetz when told about his diagnosis.

The Vietnam veteran said he was exposed to the disease through his service, if not from going to the Asian country, then by the use of a “jet gun,” which was used to inoculate soldiers with a series of shots.

It’s widely speculated that the device contaminated the blood supply.

“There’s no distinction in the numbers between those who went over and those who didn’t as far as contracting the disease,” Kaifetz said. “The VA has not had to admit to the contamination, but they have stated it is a biological possibility.”

Still, Kaifetz kept trying to get help through the system.

“There were low success rates, horrible side effects, and if you lived too far from a hospital, they would not treat you,” he said. “There were 10,000 requests every year for liver transplants and the VA would only do 400 a year.”

Luckily for Kaifetz, new medicine started rolling out in 2014, and he was able to get the treatment he needed a couple years later, but still remembered what it was like waiting to find out if he would ever get the chance to receive the life-saving medication.

“You sit across from someone and they tell

www.suncommunitynews.com

you whether you live or die,” Kaifetz said. “That is when I decided I needed to help people who were in the same condition and place I was in.”

Gillibrand of New York and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Kentucky).

“Some of the meetings were very moving,” Kaifetz said. “They were all very genuine with the level of interest they were showing and there was a great deal of respect in all the meetings. I came away with a sense of pride knowing the system works.”

OFF TO WASHINGTON

Kaifetz then set his sights on Washington, D.C., and a chance to meet with a number of members in the Military Construction, Veterans Affairs and Related Agencies Subcommittee.

His goal: Get federal lawmakers from each chamber to introduce a bill requiring all veterans get the chance to be tested, followed up and treated for hepatitis C through the VA if they had no other way to be treated.

“We want testing for all vets without VA requirements for this time period, just for the testing,” Kaifetz said. “Any vet who does not have private insurance or other means should be considered for treatment, pro-bono.”

Kaifetz said the funding for testing and treatment is already there, and the bill he presented to legislators just asks Congress to specify what the money is to be used for.

“When we took our oath, we were all eligible to be shot at. Now, not all of us are eligible for our care,” he said. “One senator I talked to thought all veterans just received VA care without thinking about it.

Kaifetz met with officials from a number of offices, including Georgia Rep. Henry “Hank” Johnson, himself a hepatitis C survivor.

“He gave me a 50th Anniversary Vietnam pin and pinned it on me,” Kaifetz said.

After meeting with The Sun. Kaifetz had a two-hour phone conference with some of the key players in Washington later in the week, which he described as “all very positive.”

“It looks like we will be presenting our first draft of the bill to several key representatives and senators from both parties within the next 15 days,” he said. “I am pushing for an announcement on Veterans Day, Nov. 11, that we have the four key sponsors we are seeking — making this bill bi-partisan and bi-cameral. Right now our team is doing the research for the bill and next week will begin drafting the vehicle.”

Kaifetz has not just been seeing results in Washington, but locally, where he is a member of American Legion 1619 out of Morrisonville.

“Through our first two tests, we will have been able to test 1,200 vets,” he said. “In the same time, VA outreach has tested 2,450 people. So, Post 1619, with a budget of zero, accomplished almost half of what the VA was able to accomplish. We have become committed to this, so we will go out and test all of the veterans we can.” ■

County may seek emergency data system New software would send messages by phone, media throughout county

By Keith Lobdell STA FF W RITER

ELIZABETHTOWN | A new messaging system could soon be alerting residents of Essex County about potential emergencies.

Based on the systems used by many schools in the area, the Essex County Board of Supervisors brought up the idea of using Citizen’s Alert software during the Public Safety committee meeting Oct. 9.

“I think it is something that should be purchased for all of our towns,” said North Elba supervisor Roby Politi, who said he was looking into the system for his constituents. “If something happens, it would be a good program to have.”

Essex County EMS Coordinator Patty Bashaw said a prospective system would alert residents to emergencies and resources through telephone, email and text, “I was really impressed,” Bashaw said. “Their calls included where to find emergency centers, hours they would be open, updates on power outages and where they could go to access FEMA applications.”

“It would be a nice system in knowing you could get the most up-to-date information,” said Keene Supervisor Joe Pete Wilson.

“The price we were quoted in Minerva was about 15 cents per call,” said Minerva Supervisor Stephen McNally. “It is exactly the same system the school uses. The biggest problem we are having is compiling the list of phone numbers so we can contact everyone in the town.”

Essex County Manager Dan Palmer said he would make looking into the system a priority over the next month.

MOVING FINGERPRINT SERVICES

Lewis Supervisor Jim Monty addressed moving the fingerprinting services for the county from the offices in Elizabethtown to the Public Safety Building in Lewis.

“It would give people more options to come and get their finger printing done,” Monty said. “There will be someone there every day and (Sheriff) Richard (Cutting) has offered to be open a couple evening each week if needed.”

Cutting said, “We should have someone here 24-7 who would be able to operate the machine. At the county building, we have only been doing them on Tuesdays and Thursdays.”

Monty said fingerprinting takes staffers at the county personnel office away from their jobs.

“The law enforcement officers are already familiar with the machine and the fingerprinting process,” Monty said.

Cutting said there is a revenue stream with the fingerprinting services, but called the effect “negligible.” ■

APA turns spotlight on Keene hiker parking congestion STA FF W RITER

RAY BROOK| With an Adirondack Park Agency spotlight session focused on his town, Keene Supervisor Joe Pete Wilson Jr. brought the bane of Route 73 trailhead parking congestion front and center last week.

Having spent time last summer counting cars at Cascade, Chapel Pond and at Giant trailheads; and driving a parking shuttle from Marcy Field to the John’s Brook trailhead in Keene Valley — and trying to untangle numerous blocked private driveways in Keene — Wilson shared the challenges in plain language.

If there are no parking spots available in one place, visiting hikers will park somewhere else, he said of the pressure on streets in Keene Valley.

And that leads to blocking private driveways.

One time last summer, rather than tow a vehicle barricading a residential driveway, police checked the license plate to figure out who owned car and called them.

The hiker was heading up one of the Three Brother’s trails and had to turn around and come back.

Several hours later, the vehicle was moved.

The question becomes, Wilson said: “Where do you want to squeeze your problem to?”

OWL’S HEAD TEST

Closing the trailhead in the Cascade Pass at » Hurricane Relief Cont. from pg. 1

“You realize it was an overwhelming situation for him,” Bennett said.

Bennett touched down in Houston on Oct. 3 as part of the Southern Baptist Disaster Relief, an organization he called the country’s “best-known secret for disaster relief.”

Church-affiliated groups banded together and organized for the recovery effort.

A local contact linked Bennett up with sources in Texas and he forged a connection with Crossroads Baptist Church on Long Island.

Upon touching down in Beaumont, the group traveled to a church that had been converted to a shelter.

From there, they identified homeowners to help, many of whom had limited assistance.

They included Mr. Young, who had moved into his home only the year before.

“In the 99th year, he moves into a 100-year flood,” Bennett said.

The water crept up to the second floor through the night.

Like other flood victims, the homeowner was trapped — his car was flooded during the night, rendering escape impossible.

Mr. Young sustained himself with a can of Vienna sausages and a bottle of water that floated by.

Rescuers found him the next day sitting on his front porch with water up his chest.

Another homeowner spoke of 1,000 head of Texas Longhorn steer that had drowned.

Nearby, a woman wept and asked for help burying her horse, which remained on her front lawn once the waters receded, a grim reminder of the devastating storm that authorities said killed 88 Texans and caused billions in damages.

All of these little stories of survival and devastation stick with Bennett, as do the tales of generosity — like the hundreds of regular people who came in on boats looking for those who needed to be rescued.

There was the owner of Chuck’s BBQ & Burgers who fed entire rescue teams.

There was the teacher who decided to spend an entire year working on disaster relief.

And there were countless others.

“It was encouraging to see the community come together and support each other,” Bennett said.

Bennett plugged away with his crew, ultimately clearing five homes and a church in five days.

PORTA PROBLEMS

Porta Potties at trailheads became necessary as hiker numbers increased in recent years.

And they have to be replaced twice weekly, the supervisor said.

They can’t be pumped clean because hikers forget toilet paper, Wilson said.

And they take the toilet paper from the port-o-potties, leaving none, all the time.

When the next person comes in, he said, they use their shirt or underwear and throws it in the Porta Potty pit.

The waste disposal company can’t simply pump it, Wilson said of upkeep.

“And it’s going to cost more next year.”

At times, the process could be overwhelming.

“This is just one street,” he thought. “It was gut-wrenching to think so many people were affected by it.”

They plowed on, one home at a time.

Occasionally there were moments of levity.

Life Church’s “praise and worship” guy is an amateur wrestler nicknamed “The Crusher.” While others were delicately

HIGH USE, HIGH PEAKS

Wilson warned APA commissioners that continued high use is going to degrade trail systems and lessen the Adirondack outdoor experience.

“This year, it went through a quantum leap,” APA Commissioner John Ernst observed of what he’s seen at Elk Lake, which is his private property adjoining Boreas Ponds state lands in North Hudson.

And, often, Ernst pointed out, novice hikers aren’t adequately prepared for a wilderness experience.

“Suddenly, boom, we’ve got masses of people coming here, often going off in flip-flops without any weather resistant (outerwear),” Ernst said.

“The traffic is tripled,” Ernst said. “We’re kind of not prepared on any level to deal with this.”

Wilson shared how his sister overhead someone on Cascade trails last weekend exclaim: “Hey, those are real birds.”

As if the trail expected was in a manmade theme-park.

“And that’s true,” Wilson said.

People want to be going up the mountain and sharing social media photos as they go, Wilson said.

Many don’t understand there isn’t constant cell service throughout the park.

Finding solutions requires a collaborative effort, Wilson said.

Bringing together DEC, APA, DOT, he said, “How do we work with this artery that runs through the High Peaks?”

hammering away at damaged walls, the hulking International Paper worker would run through them like the Kool-Aid Man. Faith sustained the group, including seven days of prayer before setting out.

For Bennett, the volunteer efforts is a manifestation of their faith.

“This was another way to get our people to step outside of ourselves and go serve,” Bennett said. “We’re not a holy huddle — we’re the hands and feet of God serving the community.” ■

Numerous Adirondackers have engaged in charitable for efforts for hurricane relief efforts — including the First Congregational Church of Lewis Women’s Fellowship, whose recent fundraiser raised $2,500 for the United Church of Christ.

“The First Congregational Church of Lewis Women’s Fellowship would like to thank everyone who generously gave to the silent auction, made a donation to the hurricane benefit and/or came to our Michigan Night,” organizers told The Sun.

handing out information about Leave No Trace hiking protocol.

On Sept. 2, the 46ers counted 805 hikers at Cascade, Wilson told APA. Crowding is not just on weekends. Wilson said he counted 97 cars in Cascade trail lots and on roadway shoulders one Wednesday at noon in August.

“That has to be considered a parking lot, not a highway,” Wilson said.

Add bicycle traffic for Ironman and other race or training events, he said, and it gets dangerous through the pass very quickly.

A solution is in process for Owl’s Head.

“We’re still chugging along (at Owl’s Head) but the DEC plan is about to kick in there, so we’ll see what happens,” Wilson said of plans to move that trailhead onto state land.

By Kim Dedam

Owl’s Head last summer was the jumping off point for taking a hands-on approach, Wilson said.

The private landowners told him their backyard was used as a bathroom and for picnics, among other trespasses.

The landowner opted to close their property as an access point for Owl’s Head.

“We worked out this temporary step to close (parking) from evening on Friday until morning on Monday. I put up nine signs and people sort of followed the signs. They ignored the ‘trail closed’ part but at least they respected the ‘no parking part,’” Wilson told APA. “The lesson I took away from dealing with Owl’s Head is that the town cannot respond to this issue by itself. It’s too much for one municipality to deal with. Putting up nine signs and closing the road didn’t really do anything.”

But it did get a lot of attention, Wilson said.

State agencies, including the Department of Environmental Conservation, began to rethink the Route 73 corridor. Wilson said the narrow road as it crosses past Giant Mountain trailheads from Exit 30 in North Hudson all the way through Keene into the Cascade Pass and to the ski jumps in Lake Placid has many congested parking and hiking problems.

Route 73 from King Phillip’s Spring to the ski jumps is a busy travel corridor, Wilson said.

“It cuts across different Unit Management Plans and private property, so how are we going to deal with that?”

Adk 46er stewards at Cascade clicked counters for every hiker and dog as they manned trailheads this summer, talking with people,
