Essex County: Expect 5% tax hike next year Budget planning still underway; tentative tax increase comes as county nears end of five-year fiscal plan

By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

ELIZABETHTOWN — Essex County is making progress on hashing out next year’s tentative spending plan.

Taxes will almost certainly increase next year.

“We’re in the 5 percent neighborhood,” Essex County Manager Dan Palmer told lawmakers on Monday.

But the increase is expected. Essex County is now in the fourth year of a five-year plan implemented to course correct their finances, which were teetering on insolvency after years of reliance on their fund balance.

Lawmakers have been holding budget workshops for much of this month.

One giant question mark is the annual renewal process of employee health insurance policies.

Palmer estimated a 10 percent increase in premiums, but hopes that can be whittled

down to 7 or 8 percent depending on how discussions with four different providers play out.

“So we will have four quotes to look at to see where we are in terms of that,” Palmer told lawmakers on Monday.

Health insurance “experience ratings” are complicated, Palmer said, and rates and premium renewals are driven by shifts in the Affordable Care Act and state tax surcharges, among other variables.

“Health insurance gets to be really complicated when you go to the experience rate,” Palmer said. “But hopefully, we’re looking at that 7 to 8 percent range.”

Additional details will be available next week after the county’s purchasing manager returns from vacation.

“We have to file by (November) 15th, which we fully intend to do,” Palmer said.

The county is right where it needs to be following the five-year plan, Palmer said, and the county’s reserves have returned to a “more acceptable level.”

“We’ve managed to go from nearly a $7 million deficit to a healthy fund balance. How we choose to use that moving forward makes a big difference,” Palmer said. >> See COUNTY | pg. 13

Students part of Assembly town hall forum ADK P-TECH students say they were pleased with civil tenor of forum, which took place under raging national backdrop

PLATTSBURGH — Students got a crash course in political civility last week as candidates from three local races converged at a town hall-type meeting sponsored by ADK PTECH. In their first joint appearance, state Assembly candidates Billy Jones and Kevin Mulverhill outlined their respective policies using questions posed by the students, who are enrolled in a six-year vocational program that runs concurrent with a degree from Clinton Community College.

ELIZABETHTOWN — The group moved slowly down Hand Avenue, their white canes making wide, uncertain arcs on the sidewalk.

Moving two-by-two, they unsteadily traversed several hundred yards, stopped and made their way back.

Amy Kretser urged the group to relax.

“Every once in awhile, shake your shoulders,” Kretser said.

Pay attention to sound and feeling. Stay on the left. Be alert. And don’t look down.

“The cane allows you to get information so you’re not looking at your feet,” Kretser said.

The goggles came off, and their sight immediately returned.

The group buzzed.

WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT Jones said college affordability is key to addressing workforce development issues.

“We need to help colleges become affordable for our people,” Jones said in response to a question on how employers can aid workers between the ages of 25 and 40 to achieve the higher education that is becoming increasing necessary for

Gillibrand pitches plan to close broadband gap Legislation joins initiative to fully wire state by 2018

“If we could pass it this year, it would be available right away,” Gillibrand said.

By Pete DeMola

STATE EFFORTS The proposed legislation joins the state’s New NY Broadband Program, which seeks to fully wire the state by the end of 2018 through a mix of public and private financing.

“We are absolutely on track to achieve that,” Hochul said. “A lot of other states are going to be far behind us, they’re not going to have achieved that goal by 2018.”

The most recent grant funds for that program were announced in August when $6.2 million was awarded to four telecommunications firms, allowing for what the state said would connect 134,000 additional homes and businesses.

A second round will address additional unserved and underserved homes and businesses, while the third and final phase of the program, designed to close out any remaining areas, is scheduled to launch in early 2017, according to the governor’s office.

Westelcom CEO James Forcier said his firm applied for some of that funding.

If awarded, he said the funds would allow the opportunity to revisit places in their current service area with low speeds and bulk up that infrastructure with fiber, which would improve the service.

The Saint Regis Mohawk Tribe, through their firm Mohawk Networks, recently completed a $15 million broadband project that laid 68 miles of fiber to serve Akwesasne residents.

A subsidiary, North Country Broadband, is currently deploying fiber in Lewis County by leveraging existing structures of 911 towers Additional state and federal funds would allow the provider to expand their test markets.

pete@suncommunitynews.com

PLATTSBURGH — U.S. Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) wants to double the amount of federal broadband program funding and boost the amount of grants for underserved areas inside the Adirondack Park.

“Our communities cannot compete if they do not have access to high speed internet,” Gillibrand said last week in Plattsburgh.

Gillibrand introduced legislation last month with U.S. Sen. Shelley Moore (R-WV) to double annual funding for a federal Department of Agriculture broadband infrastructure program from $25 million to $50 million.

The senator also pledged to increase in rural and high-need areas the amount of grants possible from 50 percent to 75 percent of a project’s cost.

The lack of broadband, she said, leads to a competitive disadvantage for residents, health care providers and businesses, and is just as important as roads and electricity.

But it’s often cost-prohibitive for providers to expand into rural areas, where expansion costs escalate during the “last mile” of construction.

Gillibrand was joined by local service providers and elected officials, including Lieutenant Governor Kathy Hochul, who likened broadband to oxygen.

“If you don’t have it, you’re gasping for life,” Hochul said.

Gillibrand’s proposed bill does not yet have a House sponsor. But if one is found, and the Senate passes the legislation, the funds would immediately be made available.

“We will be seeking similar test customers in your market, and we will be happy to provide the much-needed internet to the folks who are not getting it right now,” said Director of Economic Development Christopher Thompson.

Slic Network Solutions has been one of the top recipients of state and federal grant funds, deploying numerous projects across Essex, Hamilton, St. Lawrence and Franklin counties since 2010, including Schroon, where work is currently underway after years of delays.

Financing is just one hurdle among others, said Slic Vice President of Technical Operations Kevin Lynch.

Weather poses a challenge during the in-

stallation process, as does selling the packages once the infrastructure has been installed.

“It takes some education, and it takes some outreach to understand the benefits broadband brings to them,” Lynch said.

PrimeLink CEO Greg MacConnell cited regulations and red tape, including those governing wetlands.

“It’d be great if we could lessen some of those,” he said.

Assembly candidate Jones nets NYSUT endorsement Support from teachers will lead to increased funds, campaign resources for state Assembly candidate seeking Duprey’s seat

By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

PLATTSBURGH — State assembly candidate Billy Jones has netted the support of the region’s teachers.

Jones locked in the endorsement of the New York State United Teachers union last week.

“NYSUT is very pleased to endorse Billy Jones because of what he stands for,” said NYSUT Local President Michele Bushey at a campaign event in Plattsburgh last week.

At the event, Jones, who serves as Franklin County Chairman, introduced his education platform, which includes increasing state aid to public schools and the elimination of the Common Core, which he said places teachers and students in high-pressure environments with “high stakes” testing.

“It seems as though lately teachers have kind of come under siege on certain issues and are asked to do too much,” Jones said. “But they do it.”

He also called for the expansion of full-day pre-K and early education programs.

The state, Jones said, should also pick up the tab for lead testing in public schools, which was mandated by the governor last month.

“I know Tupper Lake is having problems with it right now,” Jones said. “They’re going to have to find resources. As legislators, we need to provide the funding and the resources to help the school districts out with this. They’re already under tremendous pressure with certain state mandates.”

“We can put on mandates every day, but we need to make sure they’re funded.”

RIGOROUS VETTING The endorsement, highly coveted, comes three weeks before voters will make a choice between Jones, a Democrat, and his Republican opponent, Kevin Mulverhill.

“It was rigorous and he earned it,” Bushey said. “We don’t give out endorsements lightly.”

The district, which covers all of Franklin and Clinton counties and a portion of St. Lawrence, includes a SUNY school and two community colleges.

Patty Bentley, a NYSUT political action coordinator, said as a county legislator, Jones has demonstrated he understands the funding formula that has led to a reduction of state aid in recent years.

“They have been underfunded consistently since the 1990s.

That needs to change,” Bentley said.

Bentley said the endorsement will lead to an infusion of funds in the final weeks of the race, between $2,000 and $10,000 taken from a voluntary contributions from members,

which number about 4,400 in the district.

NYSUT will also ramp up volunteer efforts, including phone banking and canvassing, to get out the vote before the election on Nov. 8.

Rod Sherman is a retired public educator with 45 years of teaching experience.

After listening to Jones discuss Common Core, Sherman said he was confident his four grandchildren and former colleagues in the state’s public education system would be in good hands. “[The teachers] are going to get their classrooms back, and my grandchildren are going to get their teachers back so they can be creative and do the things I want for my grandchildren, and my children had decades ago.”

MULVERHILL REACTS Jones and Mulverhill are running to fill the open seat being vacated by Janet Duprey (R-Peru), who previously received the NYSUT endorsement.

Bentley said Duprey was “highly respected” and will be missed.

Mulverhill said he knew the endorsement was coming.

State education policy, he said, needs to “even out” and local control needs to be returned to districts. “[Education policy] needs to come down from local schools

to establish local policies,” he said.

Mulverhill, a father of seven, said his family participated in the opt-out movement that has seen students sitting out the Common Core for the past two years.

His daughter, a high school sophomore, was becoming increasingly stressed-out, he said.

“We should be giving local school boards a lot more input.”

Historical Society to spotlight American history seen through scrapbooks WILMINGTON — The Wilmington Historical Society will present “Writing with Scissors: the American Scrapbook in History” with author Ellen Gruber Garvey on Friday, Oct. 28 at 7 p.m. at the Wilmington Community Center.

Men and women 150 years ago grappled with information overload by making scrapbooks, according to the historical society. From Abraham Lincoln to Susan B. Anthony, from farmers to city folk, people cut out and pasted down their readings.

This free talk and discussion invites the audience to reflect on their own scrapbook making or collection, and offers numerous illustrations of scrapbooks and cartoons that provide context.

Uncharted waters

e’ve witnessed the process g row i ng worse election by election, but clearly this year’s campaign has now reached new depths.

Key factors that can corrupt even the most wellintentioned among us are all in play this year and they are affecting more than just those running for office.

Politics, money, influence, power and sex are the tools that fuels that drive Washington, which is why we shouldn’t be at all surprised by what’s taking place.

But this year, the media has chosen to further flex it’s unbridled power and influence to play a role in creating extra drama, as both sides have argued, tipping the scales of this election through their reporting or lack of reporting.

Set party affiliation aside if you can for a moment.

This election and the final two candidates have been in play for nearly two years.

Nothing being revealed in the last few weeks about either candidate is new. It’s all old news.

So why are these breaking news events occurring at this pivotal point? Forget fair and balanced. Forget your party affiliation and candidate choice. This is pure octane spiking of the news for obvious reasons.

Perceived scandals are far more stimulating, plain and simple.

If the national media with all their investigative crews, truly did it’s job all this “stuff ” would have come out long ago disqualifying these candidates and perhaps today we could be spending more time having conversations about the real issues that affect everyday Americans and the world.

This whole mess has been so carefully choreographed if it were a movie, they would have a landslide victory at the Academy Awards, but unfortunately it’s real life and this election will affect millions, both in negative and positive ways, for perhaps years to come.

Our Constitution calls on a free press to be the guardian of the people; to afflict the powerful and comfort the afflicted. Unfortunately, the national media has become far too influential and comfortable with the position they enjoy and are swayed by the flow of big money, much like our political system.

Their first priority is driving sales and enhancing the cash flow. Their second priority is to insure that continues long after the

The Saranac River Trail in Plattsburgh is a great place to get moving and be active

North Country ahead of healthy living curve thanks to local officials

W

e’re buoyed by the results of a national poll released last week that reveals a connection between communities built for active living and the health of their residents.

According to Gallup, communities with the greatest investment in supporting active lifestyles yield residents who do “significantly better” in key aspects of well-being.

The polling organization surveyed 48 communities nationwide. Residents in the five highest-ranked active living communities — including Boston, San Francisco, Chicago, New York City and Washington, D.C. — have on average significantly lower obesity and diabetes rates.

Their blood pressure is lower. So are their cholesterol levels and rates of depression.

Residents also report better exercise habits and lower levels of smoking than those living in communities with comparatively little active living infrastructure — things like parks, trails, bike paths and public transportation networks.

While the cities surveyed are all urban areas, our very own small towns are making great strides in catching up with their more cosmopolitan counterparts.

In fact, our North Country communities are actually at the forefront of this shift towards more healthy lifestyles as a result of the strategies pursued by our governmental agencies and their nonprofit counterparts.

Essex County, for instance, recently wrapped up a five-year project designed to install healthy infrastructure in each town, including public gardens, walking paths, playgrounds and exercise equipment.

Their hard work has been ensured to continue for the next half-decade through a new partnership with Clinton County that aims to promote healthy

A

eating and daily exercise in schools and communities, and to implement Complete Streets plans, or blueprints designed to improve walkability.

At the same time, walking trails and fitness projects are blossoming in towns across Clinton County, from athletic efforts in Plattsburgh to a proposed river trail project in Saranac.

And in Warren County, a bike trail from Lake George to Glens Falls has proven to be ever-popular.

These folks deserve to be commended for their foresight and dedication to public health.

The report shows that these developments are not mere fanciful concepts, but are projects that have resulted in tangible and concrete changes for the general public.

But, as the poll notes, continued success can only be possible with the support of the entire community, from schools to retail outlets, employers and restaurants.

That’s already happening here in the North Country, and we never fail to be amazed by the partnerships and collaborations we see moving forward on a daily basis.

So let’s all pitch in to ensure our local communities remain at the forefront of this trend.

ENDORSEMENT POlIcy

s we approach the upcoming election season we want to make an important distinction regarding candidate endorsements. With a free distribution in excess of 60,000 homes, our papers are inundated every election cycle with candidate endorsements. The only source of revenue our community publications receive to offset the cost of print, delivery and overhead is paid notices and advertisements. All candidate endorsements must now run either in the form of an advertisement or a paid endorsement notice and include the name of the individual making the en-

dorsement. The paid endorsement notice can be purchased in three sizes — a quick 50 words or less for $15; a 51-175 word endorsement for $50 or a 176-300 word endorsement for $75.

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. For rates call Ashley at 873-6368 ext 105 or email ashley@denpubs.com.

lETTERS TO THE EDITOR

cOMMENTARy

StefanikÊ doesÊ itÊ onÊ behalf Ê of Ê people

EssexÊ CountyÊ needsÊ aÊ tetheringÊ law

To the Editor: It is unbelievable that six demonstrators and three supporters outside Rep. Elise Stefanik’s office were covered by 10 media personnel and made the front page of several daily papers.

What a shame during the election cycle that the media covers 9 people and not the masses our Congresswoman has helped. She has done so much for our veterans, locally and on the federal level, by ensuring over a million dollars in VA benefits were rightfully placed in our veteran’s hands.

She is a person of integrity and professional persuasion who has accomplished much for the North Country, not just by reaching across the aisle in the House, but by reaching out to Senators Gillibrand and Schumer as well to ensure the best for her constituents.

Elise Stefanik’s openness and transparency has shown us her full voting record and even her taxes. Her Facebook page traces not only her energy, as she is everywhere in this very large district, but her commitment to those pictured with her.

I can’t think of a person in need, a business or a profession she has not visited or helped — our farmers, our firefighters, our college youth, our retail and mom and pop stores. She attacks every problem we face from migrant workers, invasive species, veteran caregiver issues and opioid abuse.

The media would do well covering the issues Rep. Stefanik works diligently on that matter for the people who actually live here instead of the people that demonstrate and most likely don’t live here.

Elsie Stefanik does it all on behalf of the people, not for the headlines, but it would be nice if those efforts did make the front page once in a while. I am proud to tell people the Elise Stefanik is my representative.

Everyone reading this should be too!

To the Editor: In early 2015, the Essex County Animal Cruelty Task Force presented the Board of Supervisors with a comprehensive report on the state of animal cruelty in the county and a series of recommendations to address it, including a county law to restrict the chaining of dogs to a fixed object.

As the Ways and Means Committee is poised to vote on the law a second time, there is a need to explain the necessity for this law and clear up any misunderstanding about its purpose and requirements.

Studies have shown that tethering or fastening a dog for a prolonged period to a stationary object is inhumane and presents a threat to the safety and wellbeing of the dog.

Tethers can injure dogs, become tangled and inhibit their access to food, water and shelter. Chained dogs cannot escape from extreme weather, predators or other threats to their safety. When a dog is tied or chained for long periods of time, its basic needs of companionship, freedom of movement and exercise are not being met.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture, the American Veterinary Medical Association, the Humane Society of the United States and ASPCA all oppose the practice of chaining or tethering dogs. Yet, current New York State law does not address tethering – at all.

Right now, an owner can chain a dog for life and there is nothing anyone can do about it as long as adequate food, water and shelter are provided.

However, while the state prohibits the county from passing laws related to most animal cruelty issues, tethering is one of the few exceptions to this rule. And that gives us an opportunity in Essex County to put an end to the suffering of dogs forced to live their entire lives – or a good part of it – at the end of a chain.

We are asking the Board to act on this because tethering is a clear and present problem in Essex County, affecting nearly every town. In fact, most cases of cruelty to dogs investigated by the Sheriff ’s Office involve tethering.

Overall, communities that pass tethering laws are safer for people and more humane for dogs. Dog bites, loose dogs and barking dog complaints decline significantly over time. Tethering laws also reduce animal cruelty complaints because they set clear expectations for pet owners and allow law enforcement to intervene before it is too late.

The proposed law represents the collective efforts of local agencies in consultation with community members including animal care professionals. We have tried to be responsive to the needs of caring pet owners while ensuring that the law is enforceable.

The proposed law: • Imposes a limitation on tethering of four continuous hours, eight hours total in any 24-hour period as long as the owner is on the property.

• Prohibits tethering to a fixed point if the owner is not on the property.

• Sets forth design requirements for safe tethers (e.g., no logging chains or choke collars).

• Allows owners to confine a dog on an overhead run or in a dog enclosure (fence/kennel) for up to 12 hours in a 24 hour period, whether or not the owner is present. Exceptions are made for hunting dogs, agricultural working dogs and sled dogs.

• Sets forth specifications for runs and enclosures as well as for crates and kennels used for the purpose of temporarily confining or transporting working dogs.

• Establishes penalties for failure to comply, including a graduated schedule of fines for repeat offenders. Monies collected from paid fines will be dedicated to animal protection education, enforcement and/or for the maintenance of an animal abuse registry if one is established in the future.

We want to stress that the goal is to keep dogs with their owners, while ensuring that they receive proper care. The primary responsibility for enforcement of the law is with the Sheriff ’s Office.

The State Police, local police and town animal control officers may enforce the law but are not required to. Law enforcement will act with discretion and evaluate every situation to decide the best course of action.

Every step we take to end the abuse of animals in Essex County is also a win for its residents as animal cruelty is strongly associated with domestic violence, child abuse and other violent crimes. When we protect the vulnerable among us, we improve the quality of life for all.

UnitedÊ SpinalÊ responds To the Editor: The Oc. 13 Sun Community News article, “City’s ADA Compliance Plan Overdue,” was dangerously wrong on the facts, which has caused the United Spinal Association great concern. United Spinal Association’s Accessibility Services program was engaged by the City of Plattsburgh to help them create an Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) transition plan. Your article stated, “United Spinal has been found guilty of violating the ADA across New York state ... and had been fined by the Attorney General and made to comply with a three year monitoring order.” This is completely untrue.

United Spinal Association has never been accused of, nor charged with any ADA violations, ever. Moreover, we have never been fined and were never made to comply with a monitoring order. I realize that the reporter believed she was quoting a disability advocate, Debra Buell. Ms. Buell told me that she did not say this. Whether she said it or not, it is false and defamatory.

Worse, it undermines the disability community’s confidence in United Spinal Association’s review and recommendations to the City of Plattsburgh.

I have contacted both Ms. Buell and the North Country Center for Independence to assure them that they will be able to review our findings and have input into our recommendations before we give them to the City.

The City of Plattsburgh does not object to this and welcomes their input, as well.

We are disability advocates as well as experts in ADA compliance. I was involved in the drafting of the ADA and the lobbying for its passage. I have been a disability rights lawyer for 39 years. I was appointed by President Clinton to the U.S. Architectural and Transportation Barriers Compliance Board (the Access Board), the agency that promulgates ADA accessibility regulations. The United Spinal Association employee heading the Plattsburgh transition plan project is a Governor Cuomo appointee to the NY State Building Code Council and an internationally recognized accessible design expert. It is our desire that the newspaper correct this false information and actually report on what United Spinal Association is, what we have done and plan to do in Plattsburgh and garner the support of disability advocates, rather than their suspicion. Your article, printed without a single inquiry of United Spinal Association, the Attorney General’s office, or the City of Plattsburgh regarding the unsubstantiated allegation made against us, is irresponsible and actually could hurt our organization -which, incidentally, is a nonprofit corporation founded in 1946 by paralyzed veterans, where I have been proud to work for 37 years.

On behalf of our 45,000+ members, most of whom use wheelchairs, and in order to benefit people with disabilities in the Plattsburgh area, it is imperative that the public be exposed to the truth. Thank you for your consideration.

election with those in control of Washington.

At the end of the day, we are all afflicted with the human condition. We all have flaws and are prone to give in to those flaws along the way. Those in power and with financial security are even more at risk to be swayed to use their powerful influence for their own advancement.

This country was built on the premise that we could avoid these traps by keeping the power with the people. We have allowed ourselves to be manipulated and we are headed for trouble if we don’t turn things around very soon by demanding truth, accountability and limit the powerful from owning the upper hand.

Wikileaks and the media Proof of collusion Rick Jensen Columnist

S

tunning.

Is there a more relevant word for describing the Wikileaks proof of collusion between members of the national media and the Hillary Clinton campaign?

There’s no surprise that the Hillary campaign colluded with the Democratic National Committee (DNC) to demean, disgrace and defeat Bernie Sanders.

What may (or may not) surprise many Americans is that “journalists” in the national media also colluded with the Hillary campaign.

Hillary was given debate questions in advance.

Imagine a reporter investigating Hillary and the DNC’s questionable campaign fundraising tactics and then asking that campaign if they would like to edit the story before the reporter’s editor sees it.

That’s exactly what one email proved Politico, reporter Ken Vogel did.

He emailed his story with the subject line, “per agreement... any thoughts appreciated,” to Mark Paustenbach, Deputy Communications Director for the DNC. Paustenbach forwarded it to Luis Miranda, Communications Director at the DNC. “Vogel gave me his story ahead of time/before it goes to his editors as long as I didn’t share it. Let me know if you see anything that’s missing and I’ll push back.”

Collusion.

Another email titled “WaPo Party” exposed the, Washington Post, planning a secret fundraiser with the DNC. “They aren’t going to give us a price per ticket and do not want their party to be listed in any package we are selling to donors,”, wrote Anu Rangappa, Senior Advisor for General Election Strategies for the DNC. Jordan Kaplan, National Finance Director for the DNC, replied, “Great - we were never going to list since the lawyers told us we cannot do it.”

The lawyers told them they could not do it.

Just because this story isn’t front page news doesn’t mean it isn’t one of the biggest scandals in this election.

It is.

Haim Saban is a major Clinton donor.

Wikileaks proves that in 2016, he received an email praising the Hillary-friendly moderators in the March Democratic primary co-hosted by Univision.

This email was from Rob Friedman, retired co-chair at the Motion Picture Group.

This email reveals moderators Karen Tumulty, Maria Elena Salinas and Jorge Ramos as players in roles written by Friedman and Saban, designed to promote Hillary over Bernie Sanders.

This is the dark hole of soul-sucking depravity that is the root cause of American distrust of the national media.

If the goal of journalism is honest, unbiased reporting of facts, then shouldn’t those reporters revealed to be colluding with the Clinton campaign meet the same employment fate as the disgraced Dan Rather did with CBS?

T

his week in 1962, this nation was in the throws of the Cuban Missile Crisis. According to history.com, the world was poised at the brink of a nuclear conflict between the United States and the Soviet Union. In America, many citizens began building or replenishing bomb shelters, waiting anxiously to see if the Soviet Union would use nuclear missiles to attack the United States from Cuban soil.

Now, 54 years later, relations between the United States and Cuba are finally being normalized, with the U.S. government announcing on Oct. 14 that further measures would be taken to ease trade, travel and financial restrictions.

Not only does this mean that Americans can now legally bring more of Cuba’s famed goods — cigars, rum, etc — back to the U.S., but it opens up new opportunities for Americans to learn more about Cuba’s art world.

That being said, there is also an art world to explore a little closer to home, with entertainment of all sorts to fill in the gaps: Lake George’s Harvest Festival weekend will return on Oct. 21-23 with live entertainment, craft beer and wine, food and more.

GOP ‘super PAC’ drops $500k into NY21 race

By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

WASHINGTON, D.C. — A “super PAC” backed by House Republicans announced plans to spend $500,000 against Mike Derrick in the final stretch of New York’s 21st District Congressional race.

The independent expenditure will include television advertising in the Albany and Watertown media markets, the Congressional Leadership Fund announced on Friday.

“In just two years, Elise Stefanik has delivered for her district and stood as a conservative, results-oriented leader in Congress,” said Ruth Guerra, a CLF spokeswoman. “Mike Derrick, on the other hand, vows to be another rubber stamp to the failed Obama-Clinton agenda that has left hardworking families behind.”

The spending influx comes three weeks before voters head to the polls on Nov. 8, and is part of a $10 million package allocated last week to 15 congressional districts across the country, bringing CLF’s total announced general election spending to date to over $33 million in 29 districts.

CLF and its sister organization, American Action Network (AAN), remain the single largest outside conservative spenders on the U.S. House. The two groups spent $20 million in independent expenditures on U.S. House races in 2014.

DERRICK HITS BACK The $500,000 spend caps off a week of non-stop criticism of Stefanik from the Derrick camp on her support of Trump.

“Thanks to her unwavering support for Donald Trump, Elise Stefanik’s campaign is in a tailspin and now her backers in Washington are trying to bail her out,” said Drew Prestridge, a Derrick campaign spokesman. “Elise has been a part of the partisan establishment in Washington for more than 10 years and it’s clear she’s cashing in all her favors now.

If anything, this just underscores the fact that Elise is not the independent voice she claims to be.”

Lenny Alcivar, a spokesman for the Stefanik campaign, fired back: “This isn’t complicated. The reason former Colorado Republican-turned-Democrat Mike Derrick has been abandoned by his own party is because he has no new ideas for the North Country,” Alcivar said.

Alcivar continued: “In this election, Matt Funiciello is the Bernie Sanders candidate. Mike Derrick is the candidate who supports the Obama Administration’s dangerous deal with Iran, which makes us less safe.”

“We remain confident that Elise is in the strongest possible position to win in November,” said Alcivar, citing the lawmaker’s efforts to promote economic growth “while protecting Fort Drum and North Country veterans.”

The Stefanik campaign has largely avoided mention of Funiciello until this week, seemingly content to let him hammer away at Derrick.

But Alcivar’s comments allude to the Stefanik campaign’s latest advertisement, which appears to try to siphon support from Derrick by reminding voters of the third-party candidate.

“Which candidate for Congress is the real progressive?” intones the narrator. “Matt Funiciello, of course. He’s the green candidate for Congress.”

Funiciello called the 30-second spot a “cynical effort.”

“While these two candidates are selling each other like toothpaste on television, I don’t want to be a part of that,” Funiciello said. “The Republican in this race has frequently tried to use me as a pawn.”

“This is one of the strangest, unconventional behaviors I’ve seen yet in 25 years of watching elections.”

FUNICIELLO DECRIES ‘DARK MONEY’ The Green Party does not accept corporate contributions, and Funiciello has refused to accept corporate, PAC and special interest donations.

The candidate has also been vocal in denouncing “dark money,” or the campaign donations given to LLCs and non-

profits which are then able to spend money on races without disclosing their donors.

What’s even worse, said the candidate, is “gray money,” or spending by state super PACs that report other PACs as donors, making it nearly impossible to identify original donors.

“Dark money is the latest sign that our democracy is rapidly turning into an oligarchy,” Funiciello said in a statement. “When money counts as speech, being able to give unlimited amounts skews an already broken system into a battleground for only the very top of the 1 percent.”

Funiciello has called for full public financing of elections at all levels of government, and for enacting strict transparency laws that force campaign committees and PACs to disclose all of their donors.

Funiciello has frequently assailed both Stefanik and Derrick as “corporate candidates.”

“That means I’m the only candidate in NY21 that’s going to raise issues for the working class,” he said.

Despite the lack of external polling, Funiciello said he believes his support in the district is surging: “The result of this election is no way predetermined,” Funiciello said.

FUNDRAISING TOTALS Stefanik last week announced her campaign raised $618,000 in the third quarter, and now has $1.1 million cash on hand.

Derrick announced $460,000 raised this quarter, and has over $360,000 current cash on hand.

Through Sept. 30, the Stefanik campaign has raised a total of more than $2.8 million dollars for her re-election, more than doubling the $1.1 million reported by the Derrick campaign since he declared his candidacy last July.

Information on Funiciello’s totals weren’t immediately available at the time this story went to print on Tuesday morning.

their positions.

Jones also called for mandate relief to relieve financial pressures on state-funded colleges and for day care programs for returning students.

Mulverhill cited the importance of vocational training, including welding programs. Employers need to build relationships with colleges and vocational programs, he said.

“I think we need to do what we’ve been doing,” Mulverhill said. “Those companies can tell us what they need, and we can respond to that. That’s what this P-TECH program is all about.”

TOURISM PROMOTION Jones said the government shouldn’t be the sole engine in promoting events that will draw visitors to the region.

Nonprofits should team with clubs to facilitate events, he said. The state can provide a framework and help with grant funding, he said, citing ongoing North Country Regional Economic Development Council efforts.

“I think it starts from the ground level, the local communities and towns,” Jones said.

Mulverhill underscored the importance of planning and building on existing events. But community participation is also key, he said.

“Any grant process has to start with a plan, so we’d throw it back to you,” Mulverhill said. “The grants are out there. What we need to do as a community is to devise a plan.”

BODY CAMERAS Both candidates said body cameras for police departments had the potential to be useful when interacting with the public, but expressed caveats.

“I think body cameras have proven to help in these incidences,” Mulverhill said, referring to encounters with mentally ill inmates at correctional facilities.

But not everything is captured on video, he said. And it’s important that authorities have all footage when piecing together elements of a disputed situation.

“It’s not an absolute,” he said.

Jones said cameras can be an “effective tool,” but agreed with his opponent.

“You gotta be careful, and we have to capture everything in regards to that,” Jones said.

Mulverhill serves as Franklin County Sheriff. Jones, the Franklin County Board of Legislators Chairman, also works

SCHOOL LUNCH PROGRAMS Each candidate took a wait-and-see approach when asked if public schools should be mandated to use produce from local farms in their menus.

Mulverhill said using local ingredients is a “fantastic idea,” but cited concerns over access, including getting items to districts during the winter.

It’s also important that healthy eating habits follow children home, he said.

Jones said a law would be another unfunded mandate.

“I believe this is a great program, and we should encourage it,” Jones said. “As far as implementing a law, I don’t think I would vote for that right now.”

URBAN REVITALIZATION Jones outlined his efforts as Franklin County Chairman to help promote a pro-business environment. The county recently hired an economic developer to aid in getting through red tape, he said.

“I think we’re making great gains in Franklin County to get a specialized person in there,” Jones said.

Vacant lots and unsafe buildings continue to pose an issue, he said. But federal and state regulations regarding teardowns remain troublesome, he said.

“We need to do something about that.”

Mulverhill said it is difficult for municipalities to track vacant buildings, especially when ownership passes through opaque networks of LLCs that are difficult to trace. Decay continues unimpeded once properties become locked in litigation, he said.

“It sits in the middle of our community like a decayed tooth,” Mulverhill said.

More local control is needed, he said.

Mulverhill said he is a proponent of the Broken windows theory, which posits maintaining a well-kept environment reduces more serious crimes from happening.

That can be applicable by simply keeping abandoned and vacant properties well-kept and clean, he said.

“It makes the whole place look better,” Mulverhill said.

The candidates were also asked to discuss their positions on pesticide regulation, opiate addiction, teenage pregnancy and mental health issues.

The forum was moderated by PBS Mountain Lake’s Thom Hallock, with questions submitted by ADK P-TECH students Malcolm Hyde and Hannah Wright.

The Valley News Sun • October 22, 2016 | 11

Mulverhill and Jones are running for the open seat to replace state Assemblywoman Janet Duprey (R-Peru), who is retiring.

The two candidates seeking to unseat Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-Willsboro), Matt Funiciello and Mike Derrick, also briefly shared the stage, as did Colin Read, who is challenging Plattsburgh Mayor James Calnon in next month’s general election.

STUDENTS REACT School officials noted the historic contentiousness of the presidential race prior to the debate.

But following the discussion, students were surprised at the civil tenor of the forum.

“I felt their opinions were sincere,” said Benjamin Smallarz, who is 15. “There was definitely a difference between what they were.”

Chase Sawyer, 16, called the discussion “civil.”

“There were less arguments, and they were respectful while talking,” Sawyer said.

Kiara Anderson, 14, said: “I thought all were very well spoken and knew about the topics. And I felt like they elaborated on their questions rather than just sticking to it.”

Jonathan Djomnang, 15, said he was pleased with the results.

“They actually answered the questions we asked,” Djomnang said.

ADK P-TECH students posed questions to North Country political candidates in a town hall-style forum on Oct. 12 at Clinton Community College in Plattsburgh. Pictured above: State Assembly candidate Kevin Mulverhill fields a question as his opponent Billy Jones (left) and Matt Funiciello, a candidate for New York’s 21st Congressional District, look on.

“Hopefully next year, we’ll be at 2 (percent),” Palmer said of the projected tax increase.

The state tax cap doesn’t make planning easy for municipalities, he said.

“The 2 percent is never 2 percent,” he said. “This year, it’s .6 percent.”

Essex County’s 2016 spending plan clocked in at $96.5 million, with a 6 percent increase in the tax levy.

ON THE COVER: The North Country Association for the Visually Impaired facilitated simulation as part of National White Cane Awareness Day on Oct. 14 in Elizabethtown. The white cane, say advocates, has become a symbol to the blind community honoring their achievements.

VALLEY NEWS - LAKE CHAMPLAIN EDITION | VALLEY NEWS - TRI-LAKES EDITION NORTH COUNTRYMAN | THE BURGH

T

Participants used special goggles that simulated the common eye diseases that cause blindness, including glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy and macular degeneration.

Ninety to 95 percent of white cane users have some vision, said Eileen Brennan, a mobility specialist with the North Country Association for the Visually Impaired, the nonprofit that helped coordinate the event.

Brennan helps folks get reacclimated after suffering vision loss.

“Visually impaired people are just like us,” she said.

Folks can have one of these issues, or multiple ones.

“It’s complicated.”

In fact, most people probably work with visually-impaired people right now and don’t even realize it thanks to the training and services provided by the Plattsburgh-based organization, including adaptive technology and transportation services, Kretser said.

Teaching people how to properly use canes is one of the most important ways people who are blind maintain their independence, said Kretser, who serves as the nonprofit’s executive director.

Training includes obeying traffic laws and becoming familiar with their routes.

But awareness on both sides is paramount to ensure both drivers and pedestrians are safe.

“Not all drivers and bikers are aware that the white cane indicates the person using it is blind or visually impaired,” Kretser said.

Many are quick to turn right on red or make left-handed turns onto one-way streets not realizing that a person crossing with a white cane doesn’t necessarily see the traffic coming, said Kretser.

The simulation, while brief, was illuminating for the participants, including Essex County District Attorney Kristy Sprague.

Sprague said she was nervous, but took solace in its temporary nature.

“What about the person who is going to be living with this forever?” she said.

“I had a tree jump out at me,” said Laurie Booth-Trudo, who said the experience helped her to empathize with several vision-impaired family members who recently underwent orientation training.

Others noted how much more energy and concentration was required, and their newfound reliance on other senses, including hearing and scent.

NCAVI held the event in conjunction with the United Way of the Adirondack Region, which aids the nonprofit in fundraising efforts.

“It is a celebration,” said Kretser on the national event. “It’s not about how hard it is for people.”
