Candidates debate issues

Judge refuses dismissal in fatal hunting accident

Opponents: Who is the Essex County sheriff? By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com

By Chris Morris denpubs@denpubs.com ELIZABETHTOWN — An Essex County judge has refused an attempt to dismiss an indictment against a man who fatally shot a fellow hunter last fall. Judge Richard Meyer told 44-year-old Michael Smith of Lake Placid that it’s up to a jury to decide whether he took a “unjustifiable risk in Smith opening fire into thick brush at an uncertain target when he didn’t know where his friends were located.” In November 2008, Smith was hunting with Leo Hickey, Kevin Straight and his brother Mark Smith in the town of Keene. An investigation found that during a deer drive, Smith shot at what he thought was a deer and struck 35 year-old Hickey in the head, killing him. Hickey was a native of Keene and had only recently moved to Elizabethtown at the time of the accident. He was the son of Keene Town Justice Constance L. Hickey and retired state Trooper Tom Hickey. In a ruling issued Oct. 13, Meyer upheld the charge of criminally negligent homicide. Smith and his attorney, Essex County Public Defender Livingston Hatch, tried to argue that there was insufficient evidence to support the charges against him. In his decision, Meyer cited past case law, stating that as a hunter it was Smith’s charge to properly identify the surrounding environment and his target before firing. According to the Adirondack Daily Enterprise and court documents, Smith thought he had targeted a deer. “I thought I saw the brown part of the back of its head, I thought the deer had turned away and started moving away from me,” Smith’s statement reads. “I believed this was my only chance to shoot this deer and I

ELIZABETHTOWN — Who is the Essex County sheriff? That question was posed several times as Michael “Ike” Tyler and Robert Kirby debated at Elizabethtown-Lewis Central School Oct. 22. Tyler and Kirby are independent candidates for sheriff in the Nov. 3 election. Incumbent Republican Henry Hommes declined to take part in the face off. The debate was sponsored by Denton Publications. Candidates were questioned by a panel of local journalists. “I’ve knocked on over 2,000 doors and have been asked over-and-over ‘Who is the sheriff?’” Tyler said. “I can guarantee one thing, if I’m elected you’ll know who the sheriff is. I believe the sheriff should be out there talking to his constituents.” Kirby said he has been asked the same question. “It’s true, many people don’t know who their sheriff is,” he said. “We need a sheriff who will open a dialogue, develop communication with each community in the county. We don’t have that now.” Much of the debate focused on the Essex County jail. Both candidates agreed the 120cell jail is too large for the county and shouldn’t have been built. “It’s there, though,” Tyler said. “Now it’s a matter of running the jail safely and efficiently.” Tyler, who is a retired corrections officer with 25 years experience, said he has the training and background to run the facility.

Kirby noted the sheriff department’s jail budget has risen from $3.3 million in 2006 to $4.6 million this year. The county now has a three-year contract with the federal government to house federal inmates at $98 a day, Kirby explained. He said he would re-negotiate that deal to $120-$132 a day. Tyler expressed doubts the federal government would agree to such a deal, noting the county is dependent on the income generated by the federal prisoners. “If we lose federal inmates the county is in

big trouble,” he said. Kirby, a retired Tampa, Fla., police officer now living in Wilmington, said if the rate for federal inmates can’t be increased the jail should de-certify 60 cells, which would allow staff reductions and save tax dollars. Tyler countered he is opposed to any staff cuts. “We have a lot of hard-working, good, dedicated people there,” he said. “Maybe with better direction things would run more smoothly.”

New ferry operating in Westport By Matt Bosley matt@denpubs.com WESTPORT — A new ferry is helping to manage the commute for those who once relied on the Crown Point bridge. A 48-passenger ferry is now in operation, carrying pedestrians from the Westport Marina to Basin Harbor, Vt. However, the future of its operation is unclear. State, county, and local officials met at Westport Town Hall Oct. 22 to coordinate use of the new ferry, which is bolstered by shuttle service on both sides of the lake. On the New York side, motorists can park at the Essex County Fairgrounds, where an Essex

County Transportation Department shuttle is available to transport up to 35 passengers to the Westport Marina. “One of my major concerns is parking,” said Westport supervisor Dan Connell, suggesting 2-hour parking signs be put up along some of the streets in downtown Westport. Mike Fayette, regional engineer for the state Department of Transportation, said such signs could be provided. County officials volunteered the use of flashing signs to direct motorists to the fairgrounds. On the Vermont side, Addison County Transit will shuttle passengers with two busses; one to Middlebury and another to nearby Vergennes.

Brian Goodyear, director of engineering at the Basin Harbor Club, said the ferry should be very useful to large businesses in Vergennes, such as Goodrich, which has many employees who live in New York. Each one-way trip will be roughly 20-minutes long, Goodyear said. Prices are $8 for a round trip ticket and a five-day pass costs $34. Tickets are available for sale on the boat or at certain locations in Vergennes. The boat, named “Escape,” has traditionally been used as a cruise vessel by the Basin Harbor Club. It was recently put into storage for the cold season, but when news of the bridge closing came, Goodyear said, it was

KEENE VALLEY — A group of high school students at Keene Central School had an opportunity to visit a European country, and recently brought a piece of it back to their community to share. More than a dozen students went on an 11-day trip to Spain from June 29 to July 9. During that time, they visited the cities of Madrid, Toledo, Segovia, Granada, Seville, and several other places. They led an assembly at the school Oct. 15, telling students in grades 4-12 about the history, art, and culture they experienced overseas. The trip was funded largely by the CADAHEMARK foundation, a non-profit organization that promotes overseas travel for youth. Funding from the Keene school board, the High Peaks Education Foundation, and many other donors made put the trip within reach for the Keene students. Still, the students had to raise their own funds for the trip. They did so through a car wash, the sale of flower bulbs and baked goods, raffles, and soliciting donations from local businesses. Twin sisters Michelle and Louisa Sardella were among the students who went on the trip, and both said it was a memorable learning experience. “It was just beautiful,” said Louisa, recalling the sights of Costa Del Sol and the historic buildings in Toledo.

During the trip, the students were required to speak Spanish, both to the people they met and to their chaperones. “You really had to listen when they spoke to you,” said Louisa. “They went so fast you could only catch a few words.” Besides the differences in language, the students also noted other subtle differences in the Spanish culture. “People are much more outgoing,” said Michelle. “They express what they’re thinking and they don’t hold anything back. They’re very friendly.” Peg Wilson, a cultural consultant and Spanish teacher at Keene Central, said the trip was very valuable for the students and would not have been possible without all the financial support. “I think they became more worldly as a result of this,” said Wilson, who chaperoned the trip. “It just opens them up to the world.”

“A lot of them had never even been on a plane before,” said Spanish teacher Sarah Tremblay, who also chaperoned the trip. The assembly featured six tables, each with interactive demonstrations developed and led by the well-traveled students. Students attending the program could view interpretive slideshows of Spanish architecture, hear about the traditions of bullfighting, or even sample a traditional Spanish tortilla recipe. “It brings the experience back to the entire student body instead of just these students that went,” said Wilson. “The little kids are asking when they get to go to Spain.” Wilson quoted a saying by Miriam Beard, who said, “ Travel is more than the seeing of sights; it is a change that goes on deep and permanent in the ideas of living.” “That sums it up for me,” Wilson said.

They are continuing to try to make an expanded grocery line available at the Country Store; a community truly needs a grocery store so hopeful that we continue to support them in this new adventure. Many thanks for your efforts. Reminder of how important it is for us all to get out and vote on Nov. 3, the polls are open from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. held at the Willsboro Visitor’s Center.

Essex County reroutes public transportation to shuttle ferry-goers By Jonathan Alexander denpubs@denpubs.com Those who rely on Essex County Public Transportation to get between Ausable and Lake Placid may need to check the schedule as county officials have canceled some of the regular routes in order to provide greater service to towns affected by the closure of the Crown Point Bridge. On Monday, the Essex County Board of Supervisors Ways and Means Committee unanimously passed a resolution authorizing county Transportation Coordinator Nancy Dougal to reroute the busses to the towns of Westport, Moriah and Port Henry to shuttle residents to the ferry crossings throughout the Lake Champlain region. Dougal said that currently only the 7 a.m. and the 3 p.m. buses from Ausable to Lake Placid has been canceled in

the effort. “I did call the employers. They have made arrangements for the employees to get back to work,” Dougal said. “They were more than cooperative.” The county transportation that runs from Ausable and Jay is one of the primary modes of transportation for the hospitality work force in Lake Placid. Dougal said that several more Champlain region shuttles are in the works. “We have the shuttle for the foot ferry up and running now. We had 12 passengers this morning. Everyone said they were waiting to see how it worked, which is ok, we will probably have more tomorrow,” she said. “By Wednesday I hope to have a route from the end of the Crown Point road, with several park and rides to the bridge ferry.” Numerous officials have expressed concern that the

ferries will not be adequate in the winter after the lake freezes. But according to Essex County Manager Dan Palmer, ice shouldn’t be a problem for most of the ferries. “If you keep the ferries running, they break the ice – at least the bigger ones,” Palmer said. “The one at the Ticonderoga crossing, when the ice comes, that will have to close.” Palmer said that a larger ferry at the state dock in Port Henry is in the planning phases. But the heavy ice in the section of the lake has to be addressed. “Apparently there is some heavy ice in that area and the operator is concerned about damage,” Palmer said. “The state will have to work something out with him I guess.” About 1,200 Essex County residents rely on the bridge for their daily commute to jobs in Vermont.

WESTPORT Colin Wells • WestportNYNews@gmail.com

ou've got to hope some heads will be rolling in Albany and Montpelier over the Champlain Bridge fiasco—what a mess. Come to think of it, whoever's in charge of putting "CLOSED" stickers on the Champlain Bridge signs on the Northway is being overpaid, too. As of last week, I saw precisely nothing about the bridge being closed on my way back from Keeseville, all the way through town. Bon voyage, Quebecers. The Essex ferry, as you probably know by now, is running extended hours, with the last boat to Vermont leaving at 10:30 p.m. But Westport has also played a leading role in stepping up to bridge the gap, if you'll pardon the expression. I talked to Westport Supervisor Dan Connell last Monday, who'd been down at the Marina Dock at 5 a.m. that morning for Day One of the "foot ferry" to Basin Harbor. This will continue indefinitely, as long as there's sufficient demand. The first day of the foot ferry was fairly light, only 13 passengers. If you're waiting to see how it goes, my advice is get down there and start crossing. Boats run from the Marina Dock Monday through Friday at 6, 7, and 8 a.m., and parking is up at the Fairgrounds. A shuttle will run passengers down a few minutes before each boat. Once across, a bus will take you to Vergennes, and you can pick

up a bus to Middlebury or other locations from there (bus schedules are online at www.actr-vt.org). Boats from Basin Harbor back to Westport run Monday through Friday at 4, 5, and 6 p.m., and the shuttle back up to the Fairgrounds will meet each boat. Dan also said that Essex County supervisors are still pressing hard for some kind of temporary crossing at Crown Point to go in until a permanent fix can be found. Options being considered include a pontoon bridge, and there's been mention of calling in the Army Corps. of Engineers. My thought is we really don't want to wait until until someone gets hurt or killed by some yahoo racing for the ferry, or some other yahoo falls through while driving across the ice. You know that's going to happen unless they fix this thing soon. Next week I'll have a report for you, via Dan Connell, on the public meeting in Moriah with the red-faced transportation emergency poobahs on Wednesday, Oct. 28. Don't miss the Roast Beef Dinner on election night, Tuesday, November 3 at the Westport Federated Church. Dinner topped off with home made pies. Serving starts 4:30 p.m. with takeouts available until closing. The cost is $8 adults / $4 children 12 & under.

Keep your eyes on the prize I

'm sure you know by now that I love getting groceries for free with coupons whenever possible. But we can't get everything for free all of the time. Here's a fun way to maximize coupon savings and get items very inexpensively, even when they're not completely free. Super-Couponing Secret: Buy 'Small' and Save the Biggest for 'Free' Manufacturers will often issue coupons for an item that's free "when you purchase any of these 3 brands." The coupon often shows various other brands or products sold by the same manufacturer. I recently had a coupon offering a free package of hot dogs if the shopper purchased three other items from the same manufacturer. During the sale at my store, the hot dogs were on sale for $3.99. If the total cost of the three additional items is less than the sale price of the hot dogs, I'll get the hot dogs cheaper than I could have purchased them otherwise - plus, I'll have three additional items to take home as part of the deal, too. When I spot coupons like these, I will look closely at the additional brands featured. I do not necessarily think about whether I want or need these items. Instead, I calculate what would be the least expensive thing to buy to make the larger item cost as little as possible. The additional products with the hot dog deal included coffee, crackers, condiments, gelatin desserts and powdered drink mixes. Of those items, the gelatin desserts and powdered drink mixes seemed like the best candidates. They're both usually pretty inexpensive, and buying three of either will qualify me for my free $3.99 package of hot dogs. After checking the prices on both, I saw that the gelatin was on sale for 33 cents a box. I could pay 99 cents for three boxes and get a free package of hot dogs, too! Not bad at all. But then I checked the price on powdered drink mixes. They were on sale for 10 cents each! Whether I plan to drink them or

not, buying 3 packets of drink mix became my means for acquiring the $3.99 package of hot dogs for just 30 cents! In my coupon classes, I refer to this as the "take one for the team" couponing strategy. Sometimes it's necessary to buy something we don't necessarily want because it's our means to acquire the item we actually do want for a much lower price. Here's another example. I reBy Jill Cataldo cently saw tear pads of coupons in the produce department of my store near the salads. The coupons provided $2 off produce when you purchased any of a certain manufacturer's salad dressing. I looked at that brand of salad dressing and realized that the manufacturer makes both bottled salad dressings and the dry seasoning that come in a small packet, the kind you mix at home with oil and vinegar. The packets of seasoning cost 79 cents. So, for each packet of the salad dressing I purchased, I used one of the coupons. I was able to buy $2 worth of fresh produce for 79 cents. I didn't necessarily want the salad dressing, but it allowed me to purchase my produce items at a much lower cost. Next week, I'll answer some more reader mail and we'll take a brief break from coupon tips to discuss the best way to organize all of the coupons that we receive each week in the newspaper.

Loss, grief, and ambiguity E

CENTRAL PLANT MANAGER..........................................................................Tom Henecker

SATURDAY October 31, 2009

veryone experiences loss at some point in their lives. Losing a loved one, a close friend or a beloved pet can plunge us in to despair. Over the past three years I have lost my brother, my mother and several friends. I relied heavily on close friends to help me process my grief, and, thankfully, they took the time out of their busy lives to support me. Elisabeth Kubler-Ross described the five stages of grief in her ground-breaking book, “On Death and Dying.” According to Ross, there are five predictable grief stages that lead to eventual closure: Denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance. That is of course if one does not get stuck at a particular stage of grief. Amongst Buddha’s teachings was a treatise on grief that, roughly translated, states, “the avoidance of pain is the root of all neurosis.” In other words, if we seek to avoid the pain associated with loss, we may never arrive at closure. A clever friend of mine once said, “You can’t leave it if you don’t grieve it.” Death confronts us with an absolute and incontrovertible reality; death takes the departed from us. Some grief is more ambiguous and only marginally less painful. Grief can be generated by other kinds of losses that do not involve death. When romantic relationships disrupt, often one party or both parties are left with the grief of that disruption. For some, that loss may reach all the way back to grade school, high school or college. The loss of a close friend can leave us feeling ambiguous in our grief. A friend that moves away to further their education or to take a job far away can leave us feeling torn. While we are

happy that they are arriving at a much desired goal, we are sad that they will not be in our lives that much anymore. Even long term friends or family can drift apart and the grief associated with these losses may be the most By Scot Hurlburt conflicted. While we may occasionally see them, we are often left with mixed feelings about those occasions. Those are the feelings that are most ambiguous. While many of these relationships become irretrievable at some point, there often remains the haunting feeling of “why?” Adults often have the ability (or disability, depending on your perspective) to simply dispatch the relationship like leaving garbage at the curb. These events are often more troubling for young people who seem to be less guarded and more open to the injuries associated with failed relationships and loss. To those possessed of such tender hearts, I feel for you and at the same time I admire you. Your heart is still largely intact. At the risk of sounding cynical I offer this; “Time and age seem to dull the senses and the wit.” Remember all kids count.

By Matt Bosley matt@denpubs.com WESTPORT — Chazy extended their 13-year stranglehold on the conference with a 6-2 victory against Westport in the MVAC boys soccer championship Oct. 24. Kyle McCarthy's three goals and two assists gave the returning champions an insurmountable lead after just 45 minutes of play. “We played well today,” said Chazy head coach Rob McAuliffe, “and when we play well, we can generate a lot of scoring chances.” Westport, the Division II leaders, were able to hold off Chazy through the first 17 minutes, but McCarthy then drove home a nice cross from Kaleb Snide. Three minutes later, he found a seam and put in his second goal. “I'm really pleased with the way we possessed the ball early,” said Westport head coach Mike Davis. “We had a defensive lapse, and once you get behind to Chazy, it's easy to get discouraged.” McCarthy then set up a couple breakaways for forward Brandon Laurin, putting Chazy ahead 4-0 by halftime. “As the season's progressing, they’re becoming more confident, more willing to attack the goal,” said McAuliffe of the two freshmen. McCarthy scored once more early in the second half before Chazy put in their second unit. Andrew Rabideau finished off their scoring after beating his defender inside the box. Westport did take advan-

Chazy head coach Karin Trombley, noting the wet, rainy conditions at Camp Dudley. “I think we played a decent passing game and a good possession game.” Jessica Caner and Louisa Sardella had strong defensive games for Keene, and Amanda Boyle helped create some scoring chances on offense.

ESSEX COUNTY, WE NEED A SHERIFF WHO PAYS ATTENTION TO DETAIL! Ultimately, this race is comes down to the overall management of our Sheriff’s Office. Effective management is a function of attention to detail. But, as we’ve recently been reminded, elected officials usually don’t like to be bothered with things like details. Sheriff Hommes’ idea to board outside inmates profitably hasn’t worked, mainly for his lack of attention to the details. There wasn’t a proper cost/benefit analysis made before it was built, which would have shown several reasons why we should have sized the jail merely to serve our own modest needs. Currently, there’s a large legal action against the County as a result of the poor oversight of the construction project, and we’ve already settled a smaller one. The boarding rate we charge the federal government doesn’t even cover our costs and our contract with them commits us to absorb any increases for its 3-year term. Inadequate training of personnel has led to injuries and the State’s mandate for a dedicated training officer, and more staff besides. The result is skyrocketing costs, which are diverting money and manpower away from other services we need from our sheriff, but have been forced to live without. I’m Robert Kirby. Drawing upon my broad career experience in law enforcement/criminal justice, business, and public safety, I’ve examined these problems and have already developed a preliminary plan to resolve them. Through prudent management and careful attention to detail, I’ll stop the waste and restore the benefits our sheriff is supposed to provide. And I’ll do it all transparently, so that everyone can be confident the taxes we pay toward our Sheriff’s Office is money well spent!

Robert Kirby

From page 10 Ward Memorial Fund; Westport, Elizabethtown, and Port Henry Fish and Game clubs; Ticonderoga Elks Lodge. Political Experience: Westport Village Board, Westport Town Board. Quote: “I will stop the skyrocketing budget that the current administration has produced in the past 12 years by making tough decisions, as I’ve shown I’m capable of as a town board member in Westport. I will make sure the taxpayers’ money is going to be spent wisely.” “I’ll make sure the staff [at the jail] is professionally trained to ensure the safety of everyone within the facility. I will be accessible through an open-door policy because I want to know what you have to say, and I want to act on calls and concerns that are related to the Sheriff ’s Department.”

Age: 51 Party: Independent (Sheriff Party) Education: University of Tampa, B.S. in Business Management. Occupation: Retired police officer, former college instructor, former business owner, former Town Justice Organizations: Volunteer EMT and rescue captain with Wilmington Fire Rescue Political Experience: Wilmington Town Justice Quote: “Over the past four years, I’ve watched the size of our Sheriff ’s Office grow, but without commensurate benefit to taxpayers. The new jail was built three times larger than our actual need in order to board federal prisoners, supposedly to generate enough revenue to make the jail cheaper to operate. Instead, costs are escalating, draining resources away from the other services our county needs that the sheriff should be providing.” “To fix this, we must either increase revenue from boarding or cut the expenses of doing so. I’d first try to raise the

ELECTION 2009 • VALLEY NEWS - 11 boarding rate, but if we can’t, I’d ask the state to reduce the number of prisoners they let us house, so as to reduce the number of staff required to run the jail.”

Election Previews cont’d on page 15

“Party is the madness of many for the gain of a few!” – Alexander Pope

Registered Voters of Essex County! The role of a prosecutor is to seek truth - not misrepresent or bury it. Honesty and experience matter. Re-Elect DA Garcia, the candidate with a proven record of success and leadership.

Retired Supreme Court Justice James Dawson said; “A New York State District Attorney has more discretionary authority than any state officer other than the Governor. District Attorney Julie Garcia has wisely exercised that discretion during her term in office and during her campaign. As a former criminal court judge in Essex County I appreciate the wisdom Julie brings to the job. I fully support her re-election.

Facts Concerning District Attorney Julie Garcia Allegation: “Continued mismanagement and waste of taxpayers’ dollars”. FACT: 2005 – DA Ron Briggs spent $590,000 to run the DA’s office 2008 – DA Garcia spent $483,697 to run the DA’s office This fact can be checked through the Treasurer’s Office, your Supervisor or the Essex County Finance Chair. Allegation: “The current DA’s office has the largest staff ever”. FACT: 2005 – DA Briggs staff – 6 lawyers - 11 total employees 2008 – DA Garcia staff – 5 lawyers - 8 total employees This fact can be checked through your Supervisor or Essex County Government Center. Allegation: “The absence of a proven prosecutor has given Essex County one of the lowest conviction and highest dismissal rates in our history”. FACT: Felony Cases - Check The Facts www.criminaljustice.state.ny.us (Click on statistics) 2004 – DA Briggs – 166 Felony cases prosecuted – 13.9% dismissed 2008 – DA Garcia – 191 Felony cases prosecuted – 2.6% cases dismissed 2004 – DA Briggs – Felony conviction rate – 76.5% 2008 – DA Garcia – Felony Conviction Rate – 89% Violent Felony Cases - Check The Facts www.criminaljustice.state.ny.us (Click on statistics) 2004 – DA Briggs – Violent Felony Convictions – 24 cases – 58% convicted – 14.3% offenders received state prison sentence. 2008 – DA Garcia – Violent Felony Convictions – 39 cases – 94.9% convicted -37.8% offenders received state prison sentence. Drug Dealers - Check The Facts www.criminaljustice.state.ny.us (Click on statistics) 2004 – DA Briggs – 11.8% drug dealers prosecuted sent to prison 2008 – DA Garcia – 45.5% drug dealers prosecuted sent to prison Allegation: “Republicans previously endorsing our current DA have waited the past three years for her appearance in the county courtroom. There have been very few”. FACT: DA Garcia has appeared in county court over 300 times on felony cases. She is in Ticonderoga court most Wednesdays. Her chief assistant has covered about 400 cases – they divide the felony caseload. Ticonderoga Court has more cases than any other town in the county – 25% of the caseload is in Ti. Less than 2% of the cases actually go to trial – Ms. Sprague knows this! This information can be requested through Essex County Court or the Ticonderoga Justice Court Allegation: “During the current DA’s term, there have been 13 confirmed dismissals for defective Grand Jury presentments”. FACT: Ms. Sprague will not provide the case names for the 13 dismissals she continually talks about although this information has been requested by Ms. Garcia. A number of cases dismissed by Judge Meyer have been reinstated on appeal. If Ms. Sprague would provide the case names for these so-called dismissals, transcripts could be read to determine the facts. MANY false allegations have been made by the Sprague campaign - these are the easiest for you to check out.

Based on facts, not emotions or political party affiliation, it is clear that Ms. Garcia deserves our vote to continue doing the job we elected her to do.

Retired Essex County Judge Andrew Halloran said; “During my tenure as Essex County Criminal Court Judge and Family Court Judge, Julie Garcia appeared before me on numerous occasions. She was always well prepared and a zealous advocate for her clients. She is a highly skilled, honest, and ethical attorney. All of us in Essex County should feel privileged to have Julie Garcia serving as our District Attorney. I strongly support her re-election to that office.” Retired Essex County Judge Charles Garvey said; “I admire the tenacity that DA Garcia has shown over the last four years in her role as Essex County District Attorney. Julie has managed her campaign with the same dignity that she has shown as our District Attorney. She is an effective public servant. She is not afraid to fight for the people she so humbly serves.”

Kirby said saving money at the jail would allow for creation of a sheriff department road patrol. A road patrol would respond to emergencies, patrol secondary roads ignored by state police, provide security in local courts, check on registered sex offenders and answer resident complaints, he said. “There are certain things the state police can’t provide, so where do we turn?” Kirby asked. “Using police officers to work in a jail is not cost effective. We need them on the road.” Tyler disagreed with the need for a road patrol. “If a town has an (law enforcement) issue we’ll take care of it,” Tyler said. “To just send a road patrol out there doesn’t make much sense. Common sense is the word.” Tyler stressed the need for the sheriff ’s department to work closely with state and town police. “We’re all in this together,”

he said. “We all pay taxes. We need to work together.” Both candidates agreed the sheriff’s office should play a key role in substance abuse prevention and education. Both want deputies in local schools working with children. They also agree Essex County needs a new sheriff. “I see a lot of things that are wrong (in the sheriff ’s department),” Tyler said. “I’m not one to sit back and complain. I’d like to make the sheriff ’s department a role model.” “He (Hommes) has been in office 12 years and no one knows who he is,” Kirby said. “The budget has gone way, way up. We’re paying more and getting less. If we leave him (Hommes) in office we’ll get more of the same — higher taxes, fewer services.” Tyler has served 14 years on the Westport town board and was a village trustee before that. He said he hopes to utilize his experience, training and communication skills to improve the sheriff ’s department. Kirby’s family owned a beverage distribution business in New Jersey and he earned a business degree before going into police work. As a police officer he became a master trainer, training fel-

low officers in use of force, fire arms and tactics. He is an emergency medical technician and a captain in the Wilmington Fire Department. He was town justice, resigning to run for sheriff. Kirby said he also has the education and training to do the job and he offers new ideas and a broader perspective.

Smith From page1 believed I was aiming at the back of the head and fired one round.” After five minutes, Smith approached what he thought was a deer, finding Hickey instead. A hearing is scheduled for Nov. 6 in Elizabethtown regarding the admissibility of unspecified evidence. That hearing will respond to an attempt by Smith to suppress statements given to the police. At the time of the accident, Smith was also wanted in New Hampshire on felony drug charges. Essex County Assistant District Attorney Michael Langey is handling the case for the prosecution.

Ferry From page 1 brought out for use as a temporary ferry. The ferry departs Basin Harbor at 5:30 a.m., 6:30 a.m., 7:30 a.m., 4 p.m., 5 p.m., and 6 p.m. It departs Westport at 6 a.m., 7 a.m., 8 a.m., 4:30 p.m., 5:30 p.m., and 6:30 p.m. It began operating on Oct. 26. So far, it has been met with a limited response. “We’re averaging about four to five people per trip,” said Jennifer Wyman, spokeswoman for the Basin Harbor Club. “I think its been slow just because people were not sure how it was going to work.”

VALLEY NEWS - 13

Despite the sparse use of the ferry, none of its scheduled trips have been canceled, and feedback from passengers has been positive. “The people who have used it have been thrilled,” Wyman said. “The busses have been waiting as soon as they’re getting off.” With news of the New York State government subsidizing free travel for vehicles on the Essex and Ticonderoga ferries, the feasibility for the Westport ferry to continue operation is now in question.

“The new free ferry is definitely going to change things up again,” said Wyman. “They are discussing subsidizing this ferry as well, but that has not been confirmed yet.” Still, said Wyman, the Basin Harbor club is thrilled to be able to provide the ferry service as long as the need for it is there. For more information on the Westport-Basin Harbor ferry, visit www.basinharbor.com/ferry for a full schedule and updates.

Election Previews From page 15

Exotic fish found in Otter Creek

This exotic fish known as a Pacu — a close cousin of the ferocious Piranha — was found swimming in Otter Creek last week.

mployees of the Vermont Marble Power Division of Omya made a startling discovery near their Sutherland Plant in Proctor, Vt., last week. The group noticed an odd-looking fish in the water of Otter Creek. The fish was captured and later identified by Vermont fisheries biologist Shawn Good as being a Pacu — a cousin of the ferocious Piranha that is native to the Amazon and Orinoco river basins of South America. Good believes the fish was set free after being removed from a private aquarium it had most likely outgrown. It measured 15 inches and weighed 2.5 pounds. While owners may think they are doing their pets a favor by setting them free, the practice can be devastating to local ecosystems, Good said. “Illegal aquarium releases are a common source of exotic species introductions in the U.S.,” said Good. “More than 38 species of unwanted fish and dozens of plants, crayfish, and snails have become established in waters of the U.S as a result.” Some infestations — like Eurasian watermilfoil and the northern snakehead fish — have cost millions of dollars for control and management. Even then, these species remain, having forever altered the environment, Good said. Both Vermont and New York have laws in place making it illegal to release fish into public waters. “It seems that the general public is largely unaware of the dangers posed by releasing aquarium fish,” said Good. “I can't stress enough how serious this is.” It’s not the first time Good has seen exotic species released into local waterbodies. In 2005, a fisherman caught an Oscar —

also a South American fish species from the Amazon region — while bass fishing in Lake Hortonia in Rutland County. That same year, a Middlebury College professor found a tropical catfish in Lake Dunmore, in Addison County. Even the common goldfish has been found living, and unfortunately even thriving, in some Vermont and New York lakes and ponds. Good said in this case, the Pacu released into Otter Creek would never have survived because it requires a warm climate. But, that isn’t the case with every exotic species, like the northern snakehead or even the common goldfish. “There are many species of common aquarium fish that could establish populations if they were released, and that could cause immense damage to native fish populations and ecosystems,” he said.

Quote: “I feel passionate about the economical and environmental health and vibrancy of our community and its people. I have great respect for the residents whose longevity and strength created and sustain our history as well as for newcomers and their innovative means which help support our town. Major issues for Essex are fiscal accountability, timely completion of municipal projects with emphasis on standards worthy of our community, communication to all residents encouraging active participation in town government, and impartial and effective leadership.” “As Essex Town Supervisor my door will be open to everyone and my mind will be open to all community concerns. I believe that the Town of Essex should function for the benefit of all its people, year-round residents, short-term visitors and summer residents alike.”

More on the state’s boat ban on backcountry ponds I’ve received plenty of feedback from anglers who believe the state was off base to ban small boats and canoes from being left on remote trout waters. Perhaps most telling were the comments I received from fishermen who believe they will no longer have access to some ponds once the boats there are removed. One fisherman commented on my blog at www.denpubs.com by saying, “I'm 72 years old and cannot carry a canoe any longer. Why take away the only chance I have left to enjoy some backcountry fishing? Will the lean-tos be next?” These are the folks I feel the worst for ... and we will all be in the same boat someday (no pun intended.)

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Marvin would make a difference To the editor, Elizabethtown has always been a safe and friendly environment in which to raise a family, and like many other small communities with an aging population, small tax base and limited employment opportunities, is seeing increasing numbers of young adults reluctantly have to move away in order to find a more secure economic future. But it doesn't have to be that way. Angel Marvin grew up here, left to go to university, and came back to raise her own family. She wants to help make the town better able to keep the people who want to stay here, and to make it an even better place for everyone to live and raise families. She has the vision, the ideas and experience to support that vision, and the energy to make it happen. Angel has successfully run a small business. She understands how important small businesses are to the success of a community, both in terms of the jobs they provide and the taxes they pay, and what a critical role local government policy can be in attracting and keeping them. Attracting more

small businesses would mean filling in some of the empty storefronts, resulting in more jobs, more taxes, and a more attractive community. Angel has worked in and for local government. She knows that it can be a slow process, but also that hard work will eventually make things happen, even if isn't overnight. Angel believes that communities should take advantage of all the opportunities and resources available to them, and will use her experience as a successful grant writer to ensure that Elizabethtown secures as much federal and state aide as is available. On Tuesday, November 3rd, please vote for Angel Marvin. A vote for Angel is a vote for the future of E'town. Harry Weeds, Elizabethtown

Supporting Kristy Sprague To the editor, Over the past few weeks I have had the privilege of getting to know Kristy Sprague. Previously, I only knew Ms. Sprague from the articles I would read in the Press-Republican. I learned that Kristy has extensive and successful trial ex-

OPINION • VALLEY NEWS - 17 perience. She has successfully tried a double murder case, assaults, DWI's, domestic violence, and sexual abuse cases. I was impressed to know her child sexual abuse cases have a 100% conviction rate. As the first Chief Assistant District Attorney in Clinton County Kristy has proved she can work with both parties having served under DA's Clute, Cantwell and Wylie. Through her grant writing efforts Clinton County will open the North Country's first Child Advocacy Center. Kristy's experience with budgeting and grant writing will help Essex County during these tough fiscal times. She has the confidence and endorsement of NYS Troop B's PBA as well as the Lake Placid Police PBA. Kristy Sprague is a zealous prosecutor and a dedicated member of law enforcement who truly cares about the safety of our communities, our schools and our county. Kristy is a devoted wife and mother of two children. She cares about her family and she cares about her community. Please vote on Election Day. Teresa R. Sayward Willsboro

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Garcia cares To the editor, Since D.A. Garcia has practiced law in Essex County, I have had direct involvement with her professionally; on both sides. When she was an assigned counsel, she fought hard for her client despite being “only an assigned counsel.” Frankly, I hated her at that point because she was relentless in her pursuit of justice. You see, I was on the other side. However, what I can appreciate now is that she tried to get her client help. She did not try to get her client out of any responsibility. My involvement with her as D.A. has been nothing but positive. She really and truly cares about my family and I, even though she has nothing to gain. I live in Washington County and can’t even vote for her. D.A. Garcia has kept us informed about everything that has gone on. Ms. Garcia has continually educated us about the legal processes we were involved in. To this day, D.A. Garcia remembers us wherever and whenever we run into each other. Working in a public school, I know how important young people are and I fight to help them be the best they can be. For the first time I can remember, a D.A. actually is trying to help keep people alive by sending messages against underage drinking and drunk driving. In a town where there has been so much death in the past two years, I am shocked to see that people would not vote for a person who is doing what she can to help families in Ticonderoga, and surrounding areas, keep their families whole. People will always put their spin on statistics, but I can not stay silent any more; Julie Garcia cares about people and the job she does. Please remember this when you vote in November. Jodi Drinkwine, Putnam Station

Party nomination means little To the editor, Maybe it’s just as well District Attorney Julie Garcia lost the nomination of her party. It should make Republicans decide whether our loyalty belongs to a party or to a set of conservative principles; a fancy word for instincts that have been schooled by experience. Once of those instincts is a certain leeriness about the raw power of government, especially when it’s directed at its own citizens. The everyday meanings of conservative are sometimes misleading when it comes to issues at the highest levels of policy, but in general, they make a good guide to what Republicans should seek in officials: self-restraint, modesty, common sense, respect for tradition (not idolatry of it), compassion for the weak and a dispassionate coolness towards the powerful (including the powers-that-be in one’s own political party). These are the qualities that Garcia showed in her debate with Kristy Sprague a few months back. The thing that should set off warning buzzers is any form of zealotry. Confidence, yes, but true strength always has a quiet character that’s worlds away from bravado and hysteria. We’re electing a district attorney; not a district crusader. Let’s keep that in mind when we go to the polls in November. Events in Washington are giving Republicans everywhere good cause for outrage, but let’s not let party bosses manipulate our passions to cashier a good and proven public servant just because she has had to switch the label in her suit. It’s still the same suit. Robert Eldridge, Elizabethtown

Does your business have a message to get out to our senior readers?

If so, call me today! Cindy Stevens 561-9680 Ext. 104 cindy@denpubs.com

To the editor, The office of Essex County Sheriff in New York State is a constitutionally-sanctioned entity directly responsible to the public. This office fulfills a distinct role within the community and remains responsive and accountable to the public it serves. Michael “Ike” Tyler is a candidate for the office of Essex County Sheriff. His education, professional life experiences and persona qualify him well for this office. Ike’s college major was in business. he recently retired from a career as a State corrections officer. He is a long-standing elected member of the Westport Town Board. He has committed decades of service to the Town Youth Commission and, more recently, has experienced several highly successful seasons as a coach of the Westport Junior Varsity Boys Basketball team and assistant to the Boys Varsity team. Ike brings a vitality and discerning commitment to all his endeavors. he is eager, motivated, and well-prepared to serve the interests of Essex County in the capacity of Sheriff. Please support Ike’s candidacy with your vote on Nov. 3. Daniel J. McCormick, Westport

Hommes has made jail worthwhile 58504

SATURDAY October 31, 2009

To the editor, Let’s get the facts straight before we go to the polls on Election Day, Nov. 3. Contrary to rumors, Sheriff Henry Hommes did not approve the construction of the 120-bed facility; the Essex County Board of Supervisors did. Sheriff Hommes manages the Essex County Jail to the best of his ability. When the Commission of Corrections warned Essex County over 20 years ago that their jail was obsolete, the county only ignored the state and did nothing. In 1996, Essex County had a proposal to build a 40-bed jail on top of the new courthouse. Luckily, the Board of Supervisors denied this idea. It would have been a waste of taxpayer’s money because it would have been overcrowded from the day it opened and we would have had to spend more money to board out our inmates to other counties. Finally, in 2003, the Commission mandated that Essex County close down its jail and move all the prisoners out. It cost the county $750,000 per year plus transportation costs to house out Essex County inmates to other county jails. Eventually, Essex County purchased a modular jail pod from another county to house our court-ready inmates on a temporary basis and help

save daily transport costs. I would like to point out that, because NYS has classifications of inmates, a jail facility can only hold a percentage of its bed size. The NYS Commission of Corrections also mandates the number of staff you need at a county jail. In 2007, the Essex County Public Safety Building and Jail opened. So far this year, Essex County, through the efforts of Sheriff Hommes, has taken in $1,017,070 in revenue from boarding inmates from other counties. This helps offset the bond for the jail, not to mention the $750,000 per year saved from not having to board out our own inmates. I fully support Henry Hommes in his campaign for re-election as Essex County Sheriff. Gerald H. Morrow, Supervisor, town of Chesterfield

Rumors about Garcia untrue To the editor, You have read the misleading, incorrect information about Julie Garcia. now you have the opportunity to read the correct facts about the Essex County DA. Ms. Garcia promised four years ago when she was elected as DA to uphold the law, and she has kept that promise. She has not catered to special interest groups or private individuals. As she stated at an open, public meeting, she represents all of the 38,000plus Essex County residents, not any political groups. If you believe that her budget has increased, then you need to look at the Essex County DA’s budget to see that, indeed, she has been able to decrease her budget. The promise she made to decrease her staff has been kept; her staff is less than it was four years ago. To know the truth, you need to look in the right places, not listen to the rumors. To find the correct information about the Essex County DA’s conviction rates or dismissals, you can find the true facts and figures at the New York State Division of Criminal Justice website. Coincidentally, if you check, you will find that the Essex County DA’s office and Clinton County DA’s office conviction rates are very close. In a recent letter, it stated that Julie Garcia was going against another official for telling the truth. Now, truth be told, look who is being persecuted for open government; our DA. Julie Garcia has done an excellent job standing up for the rights of the victims, and now she is a victim herself because she is promoting open and honest government. Exercise your right to vote on Nov. 3. Roger E. Poland, Former supervisor, town of Chesterfield

Connell leading well in tough times To the editor, We are currently in a very difficult situation within our county, county, and town. It is a time when we all need to make difficult decisions that will affect all of our futures and the futures of our children. I have been fortunate to have worked with Dan Connell for over 20 years. I was on the Ag board of Cooperative Extension during his 31-year career. During that time, Dan learned how to work with government officials and began to learn the tedious work of putting together budgets, speaking with government agencies, and working to obtain grants. We in the town of Westport are fortunate to have had Dan bring that experience to our town government. I have served on the Westport Planning Board for over 10 years. I have been able to watch Dan use his expertise to help make Westport a better place to live. During Dan’s four terms as our supervisor, the planning board has been very busy reviewing permit applications for everything from cell towers to subdivisions for new homes in Westport. 1,030 building permits have been issued during his tenure. Six new homes are being built in Westport, and 43 new single-family homes have been built during his time in office, all within a town of 1,360 people. The Blue Ribbon Committee was appointed to study hamlet expansion. A grant of $5,000 was obtained by Dan to fund this work. The Future of Westport movement was initiated, and a grant of $600,000 was obtained to investigate the ability of the town to build a new facility to replace to extremely old Westport Fire Station, DPW facilities, and Town Office Building. He has used his administrative skills to obtain $12 million in grants and no-interest loans for the town during his first four terms. We all need to think about our future of Westport today. We need to return to the town a supervisor who has the experience to continue to help bring funding to Westport and leading Westport as his full-time job so Westport can successfully compete within these tough economic times. Please re-elect Dan Connell as our town supervisor. Craig H. Russell, DVM Westport

Essex column off the mark To the editor, Regarding the October 24th "Essex" column; I found it a sad commentary that Mr. LaForest is so visually offended by political signs. His additional disparaging comments suggest that he is also unnerved by the fact that someone cares enough about the future of our town and environment to run against his nephew, the current Essex town supervisor. Political apathy is a distinct sign of a discouraged, unempowered population. As a year-round Essex resident, I rejoice in a turn-around of the apathy that has prevailed here for many years of unopposed local races. Mr. LaForest, how can having a choice of leadership in our town government be the cause of such a scripted tirade? Get a grip, Skip. Would you prefer that your voting constituants not have a choice or a voice? Donna Lou Sonnett, Essex
