The rebranding, announced last month, was sparked by Shanley’s decision to retire after 41 years.

“It’s just time,” Shanley told The Sun. “I’m 73, and I’ll be 74 in September.”

CADYVILLE | The Town of Plattsburgh on Sunday turned the page on Clinton County’s first storybook trail.

The 17-stop, family-friendly hike officially opened to the public on Aug. 27. The storybook trail offers a sort of respite, as if at a library:

Released in February, the book follows the tale of Pepper, a real-life pup that kept wagging her tail through a series of tribulations that ultimately lead to blindness.

Nearly 50 residents — kids and adults alike — showed up to take a peak at the new attraction on Sunday.

PEPPER PEPS UP THE CROWD

The first book featured on the Cadyville storybook trail is “Pepper Finds Her Way: A Blind Pup’s Tale” by Champlainbased mother-daughter duo Shelby and Suzanne Moore.

Pepper, diagnosed with diabetes, suffered through glaucoma and cataracts before veterinarians said that the dog would need to have her eyes removed. » Trail Cont. on pg. 9

Much as one enters a different world when reading a book, visitors of the trail descend into the woods as the story progresses.

Visitors read a few pages at a time as they meander through the quiet forest, reflecting on each passage as the walk stretches onward.

Another proposal outlines county takeover of the City of Plattsburgh’s property assessment services, which would lead to an estimated savings of By Elizabeth Izzo $66,654 for the city. • STA FF W RITER •

The plan currently includes six proposals.

The largest would dissolve the Rouses Point’s Police Department (projected savings: $310,528) and forge an agreement with the Town of Black Brook to plow county roads,

Each municipality will have an opportunity to opt-out of the plan if they choose to, he said.

Implementation of a county-wide dog control service under the jurisdiction of the Clinton County Sheriff ’s Office is also included in the plan. Those savings are estimated at $59,000.
