By Tim Rowland STAFF WRITER

By Tim Rowland STAFF WRITER

E L IZ A B E T H TOW N | Wit h affordable housing becoming increasingly scarce, Essex County is putting together a task force to study county housing inventories and figure out how to get reasonably priced homes into the hands of local, working people.

The committee was created

by Essex County Supervisors’ Chair Shaun Gillilland, and will be led by Lewis Town Super v isor Jim Mont y. It will include representatives of government, nonprofits and organizations that are involved in the affordable housing issue.

UNDER CONSTRUCTION: STUDENT BRIDGE WORK

Teens learn engineering skills

By Tim Rowland STAFF WRITER

TICONDEROGA | Never underestimate the power of the mighty Popsicle stick. Earlier this month, middle school students in Ticonderoga used the arts-and-crafts staple to build bridges and see which ones stood up to the most weight. High school students, performing the same mission, graduated to balsa wood in their bridge projects.

Flu ‘widespread’ throughout New York; peak not hit Essex, Clinton counties mark 10 plus cases per 100,000

By Kim Dedam STAFF WRITER

ELIZABETHTOWN |Incidence of flu this season is widespread throughout New York, including Essex County.

Susan Lopez Allott, R.N., M.S., is director of the Essex County Public Health Preventive Services. Allott said every county in New York State has greater than or equal to 10 cases per 100,000 population.

“We get reports of flu on a daily basis,” Allott told the Sun. “The number of flu cases is very high. What is different this flu season is the proportion of Influenza B to Influenza A. We had Influenza

Influenza B virus under an electron microscope.

B occur earlier in the season.”

Allott provided the most recent data gathered by state Department of Health officials.

It shows that influenza activity level was categorized as geographically “widespread” for the 11th consecutive week, a condition much the same throughout the U.S., except for “moderate” flu cases in Nevada and Oregon; “low” in the District of Columbia, Alaska and Florida; and minimal in Idaho.

In Essex County, of 12 cases of flu reported last week, eight are Influenza B and four are Influenza A. In Clinton County, of 66 cases of flu reported last week, 51 are Influenza B and 15 are Influenza A. The latest influenza surveillance report showed 17,233 laborator y-confirmed f lu cases reported to the State Department of Health (DOH), the second highest weekly total since the 1998-1999 flu season.

There have been a total of 106,824 lab-confirmed cases reported in New York State this season, with three f lu-related pediatric deaths.

And 1,993 patients across New York were hospitalized with laboratory-confirmed influenza last week, a 1% increase from the week prior.

Allott said prevention is key to keeping flu at bay.

And prevention involves several important, though relatively straight forward, steps: Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer. Avoid close contact with people who are sick.

Stay home when you are sick.

Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, then throw the tissue in the trash.

Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces.

DRINKWINE HONORED

Town board thanks JoAnn Drinkwine for work with cats

By Tim Rowland STAFF WRITER

TICONDEROGA | The doorman at JoAnn Drinkwine’s house is a big strong fellow, the color of a Creamsicle. It’s his shift, apparently, with his five cohorts off dozing somewhere unseen. He checks out a visitor, whose story seems to hold up to his satisfaction, so he sanctions the guest with a purr and a rub on the pant leg, the feline equivalent of stamping the back of your hand at a concert. The visitor is free to enter.

“He’s a sweet cat,” said Drinkwine, for whom all cats are sweet cats, even the ones that leave a scratch mark on the back of her hand.

Earlier this month, Drinkwine was recognized by the Town of Ticonderoga for her work as the face on Angel Connection, which is a nonprofit organization that promotes and assists in the spaying/neutering of cats in Ticonderoga and surrounding communities.

“I was dumbfounded,” she said of the surprise. “If I’d know I would have dressed up.”

She was lured to the meeting by one of her biggest fans, Board Member Dave Woods. Supervisor Joe Giordino presented her with a plaque and read a proclamation in her honor, detailing her efforts over the past 19 years.

Operating out of a rusting red van and with a $7,000 annual budget funded by donors and the sale of cans and bottles, Drinkwine’s group has spayed or neutered more than 5,000 cats, and placed better than 30 cats and kittens a year in loving homes.

To her, though, Angel Connection is a community effort.

Veterinarian Katie Alexander is a key component, as is the Sugar & Spice Country Shoppe, which displays kitties that need a home. Businesses are generous contributors. The group was founded by Amy Reale in 1998. The board is rounded out

by Lynda Mackey and Laura Moffett, with Virginia Granger helping to pick up the cats.

And, of course, it’s a labor of love. “Every single day of my life I’ve had a cat,” she said. “When I was a girl I would dress them up and give them a bottle of milk and push them around in a buggy.”

Today, she works on Ticonderoga’s considerable feral cat issue. Drinkwine recalls getting a call about “11 or 12” cats on Wayne Avenue. That 11 or 12 turned out to be 23.

“People think they are doing a good thing when they start feeding stray cats,” she said. “But then more start coming around and it becomes a real problem for the neighborhood.”

It’s easier to place kittens than cats, but Drinkwine said there are people who step up for all kinds of cats — including a one-eyed cat that has lost all but two of its teeth that found a home with a woman looking for an older cat.

“Even a one-eyed kitty can get a home,” she said. “It just takes one special person.” It was, or course, “the sweetest cat,” and like many, saying goodbye was hard.

JoAnn Drinkwine was honored by the Ticonderoga Town Board for her work to have cats and kittens spayed, neutered and placed over the last 19 years.

Essex Quarry to become nature park From News Reports CHAMPL AIN AREA TR AILS

WESTPORT | Champlain Area Trails has purchased the 35-acre Essex Quarry property in the village of Essex, an historic and ecologically significant site located a half-mile south of the ferry landing.

The acquisition is the first step in CATS’ creation of the Essex Quarry Nature Park that will protect and showcase the property’s unique features that include fossils that are 450 million years old, a rare limestone-woodland natural community, and a fascinating history.

Collecting is forbidden in the quarry.

Stone from the quarry was used in 19th century building projects, such as Brooklyn Bridge and the capital building in Albany.

“The owners of the property wanted to see it used for the public’s enjoyment,” said CATS Executive Director Chris Maron. “So they came to us with a very attractive offer and then donated half the purchase price back to CATS. We’re grateful for their foresight, generosity, and their help in making this dream come true. After we make the trails, the Essex Quarry Nature Park will be a treasure for Essex, where visitors and residents alike can walk through town and enjoy this oasis for hiking, skiing or just unwinding.”

CATS’ plans for the Essex Quarry Nature Park include developing about two miles of trails for walking or cross-country skiing, and installing interpretive signs that highlight the park’s special features, as well as benches for relaxing and enjoying the peacefulness of the property. CATS is actively seeking funds for

those improvements.

“The purchase of the property is an important and inspiring first step in the creation of the nature park,” said CATS Development Director Derek Rogers. “In addition to the improvements we have planned, CATS must fund a stewardship account to protect and maintain the property in the future. We’re applying for public and private grants, but

we’re also asking people to donate to this wonderful community project.”

To that end, CATS has naming opportunities available for benches, interpretive signs, trailheads and trails, and more. The names of donors giving $1,000 or more will be noted on a special plaque. Additional details on naming opportunities are available by contacting the CATS office at 518-962-2287.

“All donations, large and small, are welcome,” Rogers said, “We want everyone to be a part of the creation of this special place.”

Champlain Area Trails (CATS) is a nonprofit organization that creates and maintains hiking and cross-country ski trails in the Champlain Valley, with the goal of linking communities, connecting people with nature and promoting economic vitality. ■

Counties to Legislature: “Keep the Cap” County officials convene for advocacy day at the Capitol From News Reports N YSAC

ALBANY | Representatives from New York’s county governments held an advocacy day at the New York Capitol to voice concerns over changes to the Medicaid program contained in the Executive Budget and to advocate for the maintenance of current local Medicaid caps.

“As we have always done, counties stand united behind managing the cost of Medicaid and improving the quality of care for those in need,” said New York State Association of Counties

JACOB GREEN ONEMANBAND

(NYSAC) President John F. Marren, the Ontario County Chair.

“However, any state Medicaid proposal must protect local taxpayers by keeping the current cost control caps in place.”

New York is one of the few states in the nation to require county funds to cover the cost of Medicaid, and the only one that required county taxpayers to fund a full half of the State’s share when it was implemented in 1966. Today, counties and New York City fund $7.6 billion of the state’s more than $70 billion Medicaid program.

In 2012, to help counties and local governments adhere to the 2% property tax cap, Governor Cuomo and State Lawmakers enacted a zero growth Medicaid cap. The cap helped counties stabilize and, in several cases, reduce county property tax rate levies.

“Counties will work with state leaders and with the Medicaid Redesign Team (MRT) to address what is under

local control, but we cannot absorb additional costs without jeopardizing vital services that our residents depend on,” said NYSAC Executive Director Stephen J. Acquario. Counties are represented on the MRT by Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone, who also sits on the NYSAC Board of Directors.

The Executive Budget proposal includes three separate initiatives that would impact the Medicaid local share counties pay in support of the state Medicaid program: 1. Capping eFMAP Federal Fiscal Benefits to Counties Under this proposal, the Budget proposes to cap the amount of federal savings that have been accruing to counties and New York City from the Affordable Care Act, funneling any savings to the state. This provision is effective April 1, 2020, but no fiscal impact amount is provided in the budget for this proposal.

2. Require Counties and New York City to Adhere to the 2 Percent Property Tax Cap or Lose the Benefits of the State Funded Local Medicaid Growth Cap t R S e A D l m E i If a county fails to stay under the property tax cap, or if H F aBiTa eSt R T o New York City’s property tax levy grows more than the county -F property tax cap allows, then they would lose all of the savings from the local Medicaid cap in that year. This provision is effective April 1 this year.

3. Adhere to a Local Share Medicaid Costs Increase of No More than 3 %.

Grazing, Forest & Wildlife Management Plans, Pond Site Evaluation If a county’s local share and associated savings exceeds Fly Casting, Fly Tying Instruction & NYS Fly Fishing Guide (NYSOGA) three percent in any given year, county taxpayers must refund to the state any excess benefit over three percent. This proviRiCh ReDmAn sion is effective April 1, 2021.

518-546-3378 RaNgErIc@NyCaP.Rr.CoM 164243 “The Medicaid cap has been crucial in helping counties stay under the property tax cap and save local taxpayers money,” said Albany County Executive Dan McCoy, who also serves as president of the New York State County Executives’ Association. “While we welcome the opportunity to work with the MRT to lower Medicaid costs overall, we maintain that property taxpayers should not shoulder the burden of Medicaid cost increases that counties are not empowered to restrain. We can’t cap what we can’t control, and our taxpay ers should not be penalized for that.” ■ LOCAL ADIRONDACK

From BRIDGE WORK » pg. 1

The bridge designs, which get students thinking about math, geometry and engineering, can be surprisingly strong if done right. But the real fun for students is watching them crumble under increased pressure — notwithstanding all the hard work that goes into their creation.

This was year 12 of the annual Kiwanis Student Model Bridge Building Competition, which was held earlier this month. Along with the hands-on experience, students heard from Joe Giordano and Anthony DeFranco, who discussed how their lives were influenced by math and science as students, which ultimately led them to careers in engineering.

Middle school students built their bridges in an allotted time period on the day of the competition out of Popsicle sticks. The high school students designed and built their balsa wood bridges in school as part of their high school class in the weeks leading up to the day of the competition.

Teams of students design and build what they hope will be the most efficient and attractive bridge in the contest.

The teams then test the strength of their bridge by loading weights into a bucket that is suspended from the bridge until the bridge collapses. Each bridge’s efficiency (the weight of the load the bridge carried prior to failing in pounds divided by the weight in grams of the bridge’s actual weight) is then

music. The synopsis is as follows: “In the fall of 1964, the Beatles returned to music that had inspired them as they prepared the album “Beatles for Sale.”

Along the way, John Lennon drew on a musical idea that Ray Charles had improvised to create their next single, but he would need help. The creation of “I Feel Fine” reveals much about who the Beatles were and why they were successful as artists.”

On Tuesday, March 17, at 7 p.m., there will be a talk called “Rock Climbing in the Adirondacks,” by Tom Rosecrans, owner of Rocksport, an indoor climbing facility and outdoor guide service in Queensbury. Rosecrans is also the author of “Adirondack Rock and Ice Climbs.”

Beaty said there will also be a pet rock class for kids, and a pendant making class for teens and adults. The pet pock class will be held on Sunday, March 15 at 11 a.m. at a cost of $3 per rock.

The pendant class will be held at 2 p.m, the same day with a cost of $15. The courses will be taught by artist Jessica Stiles.

Randy Rapple, president of Barton International, will talk about garnet mining in the Adirondacks at a date to be determined. Barton is one of the world’s largest producers and distributors of industrial garnet grains and powders for diverse applications, such as waterjet cutting, sandblasting, bonded and coated abrasives, and specialty grinding media. ■

computed. The most efficient bridge wins that part of the contest.

The experience teaches students about concepts in engineering, working in teams and the hope is that this event will inspire the participants to pursue future careers in engineering and science related careers.

Eight teams competed in the middle school competition this year from Ticonderoga Central School and St. Mary’s School. Incredibly, five of the eight bridges held up when laden with more than 50 pounds, and all the bridges carried at least 30 pounds.

Awards were presented based on aesthetics and bridge efficiency. The heaviest load a Popsicle stick bridge carried this year was 114 pounds, which was off the Popsicle stick record of 165 pounds set in 2013.

FOR MIDDLE SCHOOL, THE AWARDS WERE AS FOLLOWS:

Middle School Efficiency Awards: 1st Place – The Spaghetti Birds – Madeline Lender and Robert O’Neil (St. Mary’s).

2nd Place – Dinosaurs – Kaitlin Larmore and Eliza Strum (Ticonderoga).

3rd Place – The M’s – Mason T hompson and Melanie Jordan (Ticonderoga).

Middle School Aesthetics Awards: 1st Place – Team Chocolate Milk – Olivia Quesnel and Qwyn Hurlbert (St. Mary’s).

2nd Place – The Spaghetti Birds

– Madeline Lender and Robert O’Neil (St. Mary’s).

3rd Place – Bob the Builders – Landon LaVallie, Brady Leerkes and Ian Lender (St. Mary’s).

Rookie of the Year: Team Mac & Cheese- Xavier Frasier and Heiden Morse (Ticonderoga).

Teachers Donna LaBounty of St. Mary’s, Jim Marshall at the Ticonderoga Middle School and Ray Francis at the Ticonderoga High School all dedicated their time to help guide these students on bridge building.

There was only one team competing in the high school contest this year, however when compared to previous bridge results, the bridge would have won first place in efficiency in prior years of the event. Their bridge weighed in at 167grams and carried a 144-pound load.

High School Bridge Efficiency Award: 1st Place – Lillian Bain, Kirsten Strum and Zyleen Tyler (Ticonderoga).

The judges for the aesthetic portion of the contest were Leslie Midgley, Ken Engler and Joyce Cooper. Many Kiwanis Club members volunteered at the contest, including John Bartlett, Jack Bast, Steve Boyce, Chris Breiseth, Robert Dedrick, Darlene Dorsett, Donald Johnston, Tom Schaffer and Anthony DeFranco.

Sponsors for this year’s event were DeFranco Landscaping, Reale Construction, International Paper, Rotary Club of Northern Lake George, and the Ticonderoga Teachers’ Association. ■

“In January I kept hearing grumblings about the weather and eagerness for winter to be over, so I thought I might try to create something fun and of interest at the gallery,” said event coordinator Seddon Beaty. “As a result we are having a monthlong themed event titled ‘Rock Around the Adirondacks’.”

The festivities kick off Friday, March 6 from 5 to 7 p.m. with an Art Show Opening. All artwork, which may be submitted for display through the morning of March 4, must have a rock in it — mountains, stones, rock walls, rock stars and such).

Visitors will be able to view the art work, including a display of attractive rocks for sale, and even rocking chairs, some of which will also be on sale (at rock bottom prices, of course).

The children’s book, “The Big Rock” by Bruce Hiscock, of Porters Corner, will be on sale and there will be two of his original paintings for the book on display.

By Dan Alexander PUBLISHER

The Russians are coming. Guess what?

The Russians never left and will most likely never will.

For years America controlled the airwaves of the Soviet block with Radio Free Europe and the Island of Cuba with Radio Free Cuba. The United States broadcast news and information during the Cold War to counter Soviet and communist propaganda. Despite being banned across the communist block, where regimes regularly jammed the signal, people still managed to listen in secret to broadcasts that inspired them to oppose the totalitarian rule.

Now the tables have turned on the land of the free, and somehow, we are supposed to be shocked to hear that this is taking place right under our very noses?

How dare they invade our democracy and attempt to sway our elections. Are we really that unaware and so simple-minded that we couldn’t see this coming?

After slapping Vladamir on the wrist is 2016, surely he and his diabolical friends should know better than to try this again.

Electronic devices are everywhere today in our highly connected society and even if the cameras, listening devices, doorbells, TVs, computers and cells phone didn’t share our information on their own, we make it easy for the spies by putting everything we do out on social media ourselves as a new form of news.

“Here’s where I’m going, here’s where I’ve been, here’s what I believe, here’s what I think and don’t like”… We put it all out there for the whole world to know what we collectively find appealing.

Yet, now we can’t quite understand how those who don’t agree with our way of life would use all those things against us to sway our opinions?

The terrorists figured this out long ago, but we are apparently a little slow and outraged to catch on to how this can be happening in our midst.

It seems clear all our enemies have always and will always use whatever means to inflict their will on our country.

As a nation, have we become so naive or self-consumed that we’ve forgotten this is still a very dangerous world?

Unfortunately, we must always be must be on guard and capable of recognizing truth from fiction, regardless of the source while still going about our daily lives.

There will likely always be challenges from both friend and foe but as a nation of freedom-loving people, we must stand united; in defense against tyranny and evil, while never allowing them to silence our liberty, justice and sense of fair play. ■ — Dan Alexander is publisher of Sun Community News and the Vermont Eagle newspapers.

New York Independence Party endorses Stefanik for reelection

High-profile support for Stec’s State Senate campaign

GLENS FALLS | Today, the New York Independence Party announced their endorsement for Congresswoman Elise Stefanik’s reelection to her fourth term in office.

“The Independence Party is proud to endorse Congresswoman Elise Stefanik for reelection in November,” said Frank MacKay, Chairman of the Independence Party of New York. “Elise has been committed to getting bipartisan results for her constituents since day one in office. She works with anyone – regardless of party – on behalf of hardworking North Country families, veterans, small businesses, and farmers. We are grateful to have her in Congress and are looking forward to her

WASHINGTON, D.C. | Today, Congresswoman Elise Stefanik announced the beginning of the 2020 Congressional Art Competition. Each spring, the House of Representatives sponsors a nation-wide high school arts competition as an opportunity to recognize and encourage the artistic talent in New York’s 21st Congressional District. The Congressional Art Competition is open to all high school students in the 21st District. The winning artwork will be displayed for one year in the U.S. Capitol. The exhibit in Washington will include the winning artwork from all participating districts around the country, and this artwork will also be featured on House.gov’s Congressional Art Competition page. Additionally, the

winner will receive airfare for two to attend the formal Congressional Art Competition ceremony in June.

“Each year, it is a privilege to select artwork created by a talented young person from the North Country to be honored in the U.S. Capitol,” said Congresswoman Stefanik. “I encourage all interested students in my district to submit their original work by Friday, April 17th to any one of my district offices in Glens Falls, Plattsburgh, or Watertown. As co-chair of the Congressional Arts Caucus, I look forward to highlighting our creative students and their artwork.”

A list of rules and the submission form can be found at https://stefanik.house.gov/ services/art-competition. ■

Party to ensure the 45th District receives the same dedicated representation it deserves.”

“We need elected officials that are willing to buck the trends and do what’s right for everyday New Yorkers. That describes Dan Stec perfectly,” said Independence Par t y Vice Chairman Tom Connolly. “Dan has shown himself to be an excellent Assemblyman and we know he’ll be an outstanding Senator for the 45th District.

The Independence Party is proud to endorse his campaign.”

The 45th Senate District is comprised of all or part of six different counties. Assemblyman Stec has received the official endorsement from the Republican Party in five of the six: Washington, Clinton, Essex, Franklin and Warren.

He is also supported by the St. Lawrence and Warren County Conservative Parties, and is the recipient of endorsements from dozens of state and local elected officials in all six counties. ■

these increases were due to increased O&M (operations and management) costs. The current Supervisor was elected in 2015 and began major water system re-designs, according to State mandates.

Water and sewer rates have increased another 21% ($784 in 2013 to $988 currently) since then and are set to continue soaring.

GLENS FALLS | Assemblyman Dan Stec (R,C,I-Queensbury) today received another major endorsement in his campaign for State Senate. He is now officially backed by the New York State Independence Party.

Stec, who has served in the Assembly, has built a strong reputation for being a hard worker that is willing to make tough decisions on the issues that impact all New Yorkers. It’s for this reason that the Independence Party felt he is the best choice to follow retiring Senator Betty Little. “ I w ant to thank the Independence Party for endorsing my State Senate campaign,” Stec said. “I always try to be an independent voice for the people I represent and I’ll work with whoever I need to in order to make sure my constituents receive the support they need and deserve. As our next State Senator, I will continue these efforts and I look forward to working with the Independence

reelection victory in November.”

“I’m proud to be ranked consistently in the top 10% of bipartisan lawmakers,” said Congresswoman Stefanik. “Every single one of my votes is guided by what is best for my constituents in the North Country. I work with Republicans, Democrats, and Independents to deliver results to bolster our economy, grow our infrastructure and rural development, support our military and veterans, and increase access to health care. It is a true honor to once again receive the Independence Party’s endorsement, and I will continue to be the hardest working candidate in this race to earn every vote.”. ■

THE FUTURE LOOKS DARK Vermont filmmaker brings new work to Lake Placid From staff reports STAFF WRITER

LAKE PLACID | Jay Craven, one of Vermont’s leading and award-winning independent filmmakers, will be bounding across Lake Champlain this winter to introduce and discuss his latest movie, “Wetware” — a sci-fi film noir that tells a story of what happens when new technologies collide with human needs in a changing world precariously close to today’s.

Craven will be on hand at LPCA to introduce his film and participate in a post-screening Q&A discussion with audience members.

“I wanted to tell an entertaining and timely story that had potential to engage audiences in open-ended consideration of our near future,” Craven wrote in an essay about the film.

“And although ‘near future’ was totally new for me, it felt suddenly upon us.”

The Adirondack Film Society (AFS) Screening Series at the Lake Placid Center for the Arts (LPCA), Version 6.0, continues Friday, Feb. 28, at 7 p.m. with this futuristic narrative feature

that marks “a huge departure” for Mr. Craven, its writer-director, who says “Wetware” provided him with a chance to work with imaginative actors discovering “fresh details, in every moment, of what it is to be uniquely human in trying times.”

Based on the novel by Craig Nova and shot in Burlington and Brattleboro, Vt., and Nantucket, Massachusetts, “Wetware” is set in a time and place where there are tough and tedious jobs no one wants to do and people down on their luck who volunteer for genetic modifications to gain the focus, stamina and synthesized sense of well-being that makes them right for this work—in other words, people so at the end of their rope that they will do anything for a sense of security and well-being.

With business booming, programmers at Galapagos Wetware up the stakes by producing high-end prototypes, Jack and Kay, for more sensitive jobs like space travel, counterterrorism and deep-cover espionage. Galapagos genetic programmer Hal Briggs is sharp and creative but impetuous.

He’s a socially awkward romantic in a transactional world.

He keeps a virtual human clock at home and improvises as he goes on what qualities to include or delete in his gene splicing for Jack and especially Kay, to whom he develops a dangerous attachment.

Then word gets out that Jack and Kay have escaped, before Briggs has completed his work. Where have they gone and

From HOUSING » pg. 1

In a letter to residents, Supervisor Joe Giordano wrote, “Your questions, comments and ideas became essential ingredients in the design process, led by our engineering firm, AES Northeast. Over the last year, your input was integrated amongst the constraints of this main residential thoroughfare linking the downtown to Lake George.”

The project will replace underground sewer, water and stormwater mains. A primary goal is to divert stormwater from the sewer system, where in times of heavy rains it can overwhelm the treatment plant. When that happens, partially treated sewage overflows into the LaChute River.

A byproduct of the project will be the reconstruction of the Portage, making it a more attractive corridor with defined sidewalks and parking lanes. The work will also make the road more durable, meaning that it will save costs for repairs and repaving over the years. ■ From LETTERS » pg. 6

The situation is becoming unsustainable, but where are our elected officials and why are they turning a blind eye to this crisis? Installing water meters will not relieve the burden of excessive costs to families unless the per-gallon rates are kept very low. That means that Albany, together with Washington, needs to provide funding for both improvements and O& M expenses. Our representatives to Albany, however, like our current representative to Washington, DC, remain silent and passive on funding for water and sewer costs in localities such as Ticonderoga. Meanwhile signers of Mr. Sheldon’s petition are worried, angry and have had enough.

Albany needs to wake up to soaring water and sewer costs, including skyrocketing O&M costs, that are overburdening communities such as ours. We need to send elected officials to Albany who will carry the ball for us. Washington shows signs of attention to this problem, but both Albany and Washington need to hear our voices through our ballots.

— Holly Dixon, Ticonderoga ■

Monty said the committee’s work could lead to the creation of a housing authority, or some similar agency, that would use untapped pools of grant money to build or rehabilitate homes and sell them to a strata of Essex County residents who are employed, but lack assets or the income it would take to buy a house on the open market.

Increasingly, local officials fear, Essex County is becoming a place where only the relatively wealthy can afford to buy a home. “There are people who are gainfully employed, but struggle to find housing,” Monty said.

A number of factors have fueled the problem. Economics, demographics, technology and a growing number of vacationers have skewed the marketplace to the point where buying or renting a house has become problematic for people of low or moderate means, Gillilland said.

It’s not necessarily a new problem, he said, but “it’s been exacerbated in some towns around the county because of vacation homes and short term rentals.”

Houses that might have been rented out on a monthly basis for $800 can now fetch $300 a night as a short-term rental.

As such, short term rentals have fundamentally changed the marketplace.

“When I travel I still look to book a hotel, but my adult kids get on their phones and go to Airbnb,” Gillilland said.

“Wetware” is a story of technology and human needs in a changing world.

Tickets to “Wetware” are $10 each and are available at the door as well as by advance reservation via the LPCA box office (518-523-2512, lakeplacidarts.org). The arts center is located at 17 Algonquin Drive, off NYS Route 86/Saranac Ave. at the intersection near the Quality Inn and Desperados/Stewart’s.

Because of this new travel paradigm, hundreds of homes around the county that might have once been rented long term to local residents are now out of play for local residents.

That’s put a squeeze on the market around vacation destinations such as Lake Placid and Keene Valley, but there is a parallel problem even in parts of Essex County that are off the beaten track, said Monty.

Mont y said that families that fa ll u nder t he acrony m A LIC E (Asset Limited Income Constrained Employees) need help to become players in the housing market. Many of these are single moms, who also struggle with basic bills for food, heat, transportation, daycare and such.

Monty said that part of the reason they have a hard time paying basic expenses is because they are burdened by “crazy rents” in Essex County, reflective of limited housing inventory. Monty said he would like to see these people be able to buy a house and begin to build equity.

Without help, it appears that younger people are simply forced out of the county altogether, according to a 2019 community assessment report prepared by Adirondack Community Action Programs.

According to a 2017 Census update, Essex County lost 3.6% of its population in seven years. “A continuing trend in our region of young people leaving the area for better jobs,” the ACAP report

stated. And those who stayed were slipping further behind. The report stated that “40% of the households in Essex County live below the ALICE Threshold and are unable to meet the daily cost of living.”

And housing costs are taking up a disproportionate share of many budgets.

Those with service jobs in the trendy villages of Lake Placid and Saranac Lake are having to commute from as far away as Franklin and Clinton counties.

According to the ACAP report, more than 80% of young adults are paying above the maximum recommended 30% of their budgets in housing costs.

The elderly are hit hard too, with 56% spending more than they can theoretically afford on housing.

Compounding the problem, the houses that are available for rent are often old and in need of maintenance or weatherization. That means along with higher housing costs, moderate to low-income homeowners or renters also have to pay disproportionately high heating bills.

Gillilland said the committee will look at all these issues and come up with a targeted strategy to address the areas of highest need. Affordable housing benefits residents, but it also benefits businesses as well by expanding the labor pool that’s within reasonable commuting distance. “A common complaint I hear from businesses is that there’s no one to work for them,” Gillilland said. ■

Indy: a real winner of a dog!

Church offers Lenten Bible studies TICONDEROGA | Pastor Scott Tyler of the First United Methodist Church in Ticonderoga will be leading special Bible studies related to the season of Lent. This is a time for Christians to reflect on the meaning of the fulfillment of Christ’s sacrifice and his withdrawal into the desert for 40 days in preparation. The first study took place on Tuesday, March 3, but the next five study groups will meet every Tuesday from 11 a.m. to noon, to include March 10, 17, 24 and 31 and April 7. They will take place in the church’s lounge, accessible via the main front entrance. The church is located at 1045 Wicker Street in Ticonderoga. Worship services with communion and special music are held at 9 a.m. every Sunday, and everyone is invited to attend. For more information about the Lenten Bible studies or the church in general, call 518-585-7995. ■

Statewide bag ban begins March 1 ALBANY | The variously anticipated ban on single-use plastic bags is on time to take effect March 1. Officially known as the New York State Plastic Bag Waste Reduction Act, the law’s final adjustments and regulations will be published in the State Register on Feb. 26 following a 60-day period of public commentary and hearing. Though deemed by some as an inconvenience to shoppers and retailers, the larger picture is to reduce litter, cut greenhouse gas emissions and protect the environment for future generations. The Department of Environmental Conservation has plans in place to continue their outreach and education efforts to ensure a smooth transition.

For full details, visit dec.ny.gov/chemical/50034.html, email plasticbags@dec.ny.gov, or call 518-402-8706. ■

know it with the way she loves to run through the snow! Indy is a beautifully muscled American bulldog who loves to play, chase rope toys and go for walks.

Indy is very energetic and will benefit from lots of exercise, she would make a wonderful hiking or trail running partner.

Indy hasn’t been here for long, and we don’t believe she has had any experience with cats. She used to live with a calm older dog, but think she’s probably going to vie for attention with younger, energetic dogs in a household, so she likely needs to find a home where she’ll be an only dog. Indy also needs a home without young kids, in her previous home she had children that made a point of bothering her and she gets very anxious around them. Come meet our sweet girl Indy, and we’re sure she’ll quickly take first place in your heart! ■

Meet Indy, or as we lovingly refer to her, Piggy. Spend any time with Indy and you’ll understand her nickname: this silly girl is always snorting like a pig! It’s absolutely adorable, one of her many endearing qualities. Indy is one, and pretty shy when you first meet her. But with just a little time, she quickly warms up to people, and then she’s constantly wigging her whole body in excitement! When happy, she has one of those big, toothy smiles that you can’t help but return.

Indy is from California, and this is her first North Country winter. You wouldn’t

Pelkey makes his mark on record books

By Keith Lobdell

isn’t even a number I knew about until you told me the night I hit 1,000,” said Pelkey, referring to the author. “It was a lot of hard work and I am just extremely blessed and thank the Lord he gave me a talent and love for sports.”

SPORTS EDITOR

SCHROON | Andrew Pelkey scored 30 points to help Schroon Lake defeat Beekmantown, 70-67 Friday, but it was the 23rd point he scored that put him into the record books.

After being fouled on a shot attempt that went in to put him at 22 for the game and 1,696 for his career, Pelkey calmly stepped to the foul line, took his usual one dribble and set himself before releasing the ball into the air as the Schroon

CONGRATS FROM FORMER SCORING CHAMP

Pelkey passed Munson, who held the record since 1999 at 1,696, with the closest challenge coming from now third place scorer Adam Jaquish of Moriah in 2016.

“I told him I was proud of him. He worked hard and played well, and he should be proud,” said Munson, a Beekmantown graduate. “I told him it has been fun following him and the whole chase and I have been excited for this moment to come for him and wanted to make sure I was here for it.”

“To do it against his hometown team was just crazy,” said Pelkey. “He is such an amazing guy and for him to come and tell me he was rooting for me and to congratulate me on passing his mark was really special to me.”

A TEAM ACCOMPLISHMENT

Pelkey also added his appreciation for his coach and teammates.

“I am grateful to everyone who has coached me and who I have played with over these last five years of varsity basketball,” he said. “Three of the guys I play with out here this season are family, it has just been special. Cian (Bresnahan), Collin (Bresnahan) and all of my teammates have been so unselfish with the ball and given me a look when they had their own chance to score, and I am thankful for them all.”

Silvernail said his words of wisdom to Pelkey were simple.

“If you keep doing what you are doing you are going to get it, just go out and play hard, represent yourself well and do it the right way,” he said.

Andrew Pelkey of Schroon Lake weaves his way past Beekmantown’s Nate Finley as the Wildcats scored a 70-67 win over the Eagles Friday. Pelkey, scoring 30 in the game, set a new benchmark for boys scoring in Section VII, passing Eagles’ alum Dan Munson’s 1,696 career point total and finishing the regular season with 1,704 — the first boys player to reach that mark.

Lake fans in attendance held their collective breath.

Swish.

With that sound, Pelkey did a little hop as he went back on defense, giving a high five to teammate Collin Bresnahan as the Schroon Lake sideline erupted, knowing Pelkey had just became Section VII’s all-time leading scorer in boys basketball.

“I have been playing basketball for a long time, and this

MAKING SCHOOL HISTORY AS WELL

Pelkey was not done making history after his 1,697th point, as his next basket put him one point past former Schroon Lake varsity girls standout Shannon Brock, who had held the Wildcat scoring record at 1,698.

Pelkey, who is the first boys player to score 1,700 points in a career (currently at 1,704) only trails Northeastern Clinton’s Courtney Coryea (1,909) and Westport’s Julie Moore (2,388) in sectional history. ■ — Sun Community News was the only media outlet to bring you quotes from all seven 1,000-point scorers this season and from Andrew Pelkey, the new Section VII boys scoring champion.

DEPOT THEATRE UNVEILS 2020 SEASON

Shows focus on heroes, storytelling and music

By Tim Rowland STAFF WRITER

WESTPORT | As the great African-American vocalist Billie Holiday lay dying of liver and heart disease in a New York hospital in 1959, police burst into her room, charged her with drug possession and handcuffed her to her bed. For security, a cop was posted at the door of the room she would never leave. Within a month she was dead at age 44.

It was the final indignity in a life of discrimination and abuse, which likely had a significant contribution to her struggles with drugs and alcohol. There are notes of Jackie Robinson in the life of Billie Holiday, as she broke down color barriers, but not without consequence.

Today, said Kenney Green, Producing Artistic Director for the Depot Theatre, her music is remembered, but not her confrontations with white America in the mid 20th century. “There are a lot of things people don’t know about her trials and tribulations,” Green said.

Heroism, Greene said, is a theme of the Depot Theatre’s 2020 season, subscriptions for which are now on sale. Holiday’s story is told in the musical “Lady Day at Emerson’s Bar and Grill,” one of four main-stage productions in a season that runs from June 19 to Aug. 27.

The season, which expands from three to four shows this year, opens with “Working: A Musical” that celebrates the everyday heroes who keep the nation’s wheels turning by doing their daily jobs. Adopted from a book by Pulitzer Prize winner Studs Terkel, “Working” is derived from interviews with people from across the country, representing a cross section of vocations.

Next up is “The Mountaintop,” a fictional interpretation of Martin Luther King in Room 306 of the Lorraine Motel in Memphis on the eve of his assassination in 1968. The

name is a reference to King’s “I’ve Been to the Mountaintop” speech, which he has just delivered prior to returning to his motel room, where the play opens.

King is depicted more as an everyday hero than an icon, an average American with strengths and weaknesses who stepped to the fore when destiny called.

After these thought-provoking pieces, “It’s time to go to the circus,” Green said. “Barnum: The Musical” is the story of showman P.T. Barnum, who built a fortune on the notion that “There’s a sucker born every minute.” ‘Barnum’ is a high energy tale, set during the period 1835 through 1880, follows Barnum around the world as he evolved from a simple sideshow man, joined the circus, and eventually helped to curate The Greatest Show on Earth.

“Lady Day at Emerson’s Bar and Grill,” which tells Billie Holiday’s story as she reflects back on her life, ends the summer season.

Green said the season is also a nod to history, but believes the audiences will see threads of the modern world in what has gone before. “It sounds like a cliche, but everything that was old is new again,” he said.

Overall, “This lineup adheres to our vision statement that promises to promote diversity in all that we do,” Green said. “These productions represent a range of experiences that will resonate with our audiences; from thought-provoking storytelling that illustrates how some decades-old struggles are still relevant today, to pure entertainment.”

The Depot, which shares a location with the Westport Amtrak station, is the Adirondacks only equity theater. “It’s accessible, and the audience gets a Broadway level experience in the Adirondacks, in a rustic setting and without Broadway prices,” said Kim Rielly, the theater’s executive director.

The season will be dedicated to longtime theater board member Shirley Bacot Shamel, who died in January at the age of 83. “Her largerthan-life presence and radiant smile will truly be missed,” the trustees wrote in the dedication.

The Depot Theatre will grow from three shows to four on the main stage in its 2020 season.
