Officials opt for sole justice Barring challenge from the public, town resolution will become law

Punk outfit to bring raw sound, dose of rock history to Otis Mountain Get Down ELIZABETHTOWN — Rough Francis plays loud and dangerous rock and roll, unsafe music that should inspire action and ideas, says the band’s frontman.

“Something that keeps you on the edge of your seat,” said Bobby Hackney Jr. Pete The Burlington-based outfit boasts a DeMola Writer variety of influences. Their sound is like a roadmap that traces out American rock history beginning with the Motown scene. They’ve melded those influences with late-1960s proto-punk troublemakers like the Stooges and MC5 alongside elements of Burlington’s hardcore heyday in the late-1980s.

The result is jittery and unhinged, but also laced with streaks of soul.

“It’s primal rock and roll,” said Hackney, the band’s vocalist.

The quintet is slated to perform this Saturday at the Otis Mountain Get Down in Elizabethtown, a festival gig that comes at the end of a flurry of summertime activity for the outfit, including shows up and down the east coast and recording sessions for a new LP.

Last week, work was completed on the culvert spanning Roaring Brook on River Road in North Elba.

What was once a claustrophobic culvert containing duel six-foot pipes is now a handsome bridge-type structure that spans 35 feet.

It’s a veritable salmon superhighway, explained the Nature Conservancy’s Michelle Brown, allowing fish to navigate their way up the Ausable River with few hurdles. With this project, six additional miles have been opened up.

Burlington-based punk outfit Rough Francis are scheduled to perform at the Otis Mountain Get Down in Elizabethtown on Saturday, Sept.

It’s impossible to discuss the band without mentioning one of rock and roll’s most compelling tales, a family saga that is equal parts heartbreaking and inspiring.

In the early 1970s, three brothers started a band in Detroit, quickly taking up the brand of turbocharged rock and roll proffered by local Motor City acts — including, you guessed it, the Stooges and MC5.

They called themselves Death.

Industry heads took notice, but a major label deal disintegrated when the trio refused to change their name to something more marketable.

WESTPORT — Following a summer operating with only one justice, town officials now want to make the reduction permanent.

Last month, the town board voted unanimously to slash the position left vacant

by Michael “Ike” Tyler’s resignation in June, arguing that one justice can handle the court’s case volume.

According to meeting minutes, Justice William LaHendro said he currently puts in 15 hours per week, handing about 90 cases in two months.

Town officials presented the reduction as a cost-savings measure that will save taxpayers between $10,000 and $15,000 each year.

Supervisor Dan Connell said the reduction will help the town stay under the state-mandated tax cap.

Under the cap, the town can only increase the levy by $6,500 next year. Going above that number means residents will not be eligible for state-issued tax rebate checks.

“That number becomes significant if you look at it that way,” said Connell. “It’s extremely difficult to find >> Story Continued | pg. 7

Candidates to Lewis: No thanks!

Essex hopefuls decline Lewis offer to pay salaries

By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

ESSEX — Earlier this summer, the deadline came and went for partisan candidates to run for office.

In Essex, it was met with crickets — None stepped forward to run for the two available slots on the town board; nor did challengers arise to take on the supervisor and clerk, the husband-wife team who were running unopposed.

Enter Sandy Lewis, who offered to cut a taxdeductible check to the town. He hoped the funds — $1,000 per month to each winning board member for one year — would be used to bolster salaries (pending unanimous approval by the new board, of course).

Doing so might encourage people to run, he reckoned.

The offer hit the town like a plutonium bomb, with some even accusing Lewis of attempting to seed a dictatorship.

Now, several weeks later, five candidates — four them independent — have stepped forward and are running for the board positions.

Did Lewis spur them into action?

No way, say all five.

“Absolutely not,” said Gretel Schueller, a registered Democrat who is running as a write-in candidate.

“No,” said Tom Stransky.

“Not at all,” said Jonathan Pribble.

Several candidates questioned the legality of such a measure.

“You can’t put money into the government like that,” said Pribble. “I have no interest in money from him and anything else.”

“You simply cannot pay government officials,” said James LaForest, the only incumbent in the race.

Lewis maintains that directed giving to municipalities, a tax-deductible contribution that would be circulated back out as tax-deductible salaries, is perfectly legal.

In fact, he’s cut the town a check several times in the past, he said.

Winning candidates would not be subject to his influence, said Lewis.

“I am not screening them,” said Lewis. “We just want to see better government. To get better government, we need better people.”

While the candidates quickly distanced themselves from Lewis’ controversial offer, several acknowledged they did speak with the outspoken cattle farmer after deciding to run.

Pribble said he spoke with Lewis for about an hour following his decision.

“The day after I got my petition in, he called me,” said Pribble.

Does he think there’s a connection between Lewis and his opponents?

“I don’t,” said Pribble. “It’s under my impression he doesn’t think highly of anyone. I think it’s about dealing with the lesser of two evils.”

At least one of the candidates got a signature from Lewis during the petition process, which ended last month.

Jay White said he sought out Lewis’ signature

to demonstrate that, if elected to the board, he could work with a wide spectrum of the populace — even those as vocal as Lewis, who berated he and other town officials at a zoning board of appeals meeting earlier this spring that sought to settle a property dispute between Lewis and Mark Wrisley, the outgoing board member.

Negotiation techniques are a critical part of the job, said White. So is the ability to challenge people on behalf of local residents.

“The town board lives in fear of Lewis,” said White. “And they hate him. I can’t see how the town board can effectively represent the rest of us with that perspective.”

Next year will see another full property reassessment for the town, noted White, and the court-ordered property assessment settlement between Lewis and Essex will expire.

“People who fear and hate are not going to negotiate successfully on behalf of the Essex taxpayers,” said White.

White said the current board is also failing to combat the negative narrative Lewis is painting about the town, which is still reeling from a scandal that saw former clerk William Morgan plead guilty to federal child pornography charges in June.

“All we are in his eyes are a bunch of drunk pedophiles,” said White. “I believe Essex needs a new, positive narrative about the creative, enterprising people of this community.”

Morgan is scheduled to be sentenced on Sept.

18. He faces a minimum of 15 years in federal prison.

LaForest, who is running to retain the seat to which he was appointed in April to fill an un-

expired term, said he doesn’t think Lewis has much stature within the community, including when it comes to swaying the board.

He asked to point to an example of Lewis damaging the town with his invective.

“I don’t think he had much impact,” said LaForest. “He simply has no influence over me in any way.”

Lewis said he hasn’t endorsed any of the candidates.

“We have not endorsed,” he said. “Nor have we spoken with the candidates. We do not know much about those running at this time. Of course, that may change.”

Lewis later shrugged when told that none of the candidates accepted his offer.

“I couldn’t be happier,” he said when reached by phone in Idaho. “It’s nice to know such virtuous people are running for town government.

May they clean house. Our offer stands.”

Lewis did, however, reserve sharp words for how the town has traditionally conducted property appraisals.

“I view what happened before by the tax assessors as criminal behavior,” said Lewis, referring to a prolonged court case that eventually resulted in the Lewis Family Farm’s assessment being lowered from $6.03 million to $1.8 million.

That case cost the town over $100,000 in legal fees, he noted.

“They’re mendacious little creeps. They took a hell of a beating in the court based on the facts.

We don’t want to take them on again, but we will.”

Bridge connecting Clinton, Essex counties to be replaced

By Teah Dowling

teah@suncommunitynews.com

AU SABLE FORKS — After over 80 years, the bridge separating the Town of Jay and the Town of Black Brook is getting replaced.

EXISTING CONDITIONS Though the bridge was built to the codes and standards of the time and remains safe for everyday traffic, it is susceptible to loss of foundation materials and flooding caused by intensity and velocity of water from extreme natural events.

Right now on the existing structure, which was built in 1931, there’s evidence of steel gusset plate and steel connection plate deterioration.

“There’s not supposed to be holes in steel,” said Jeffrey Fisher, project manager for the NYS Department of Transportation.

NEW BRIDGE Construction is set to begin in early spring 2016 and end in October 2017, possibly. The cost of the project equals about $2 million.

The objective of this project is to provide a bridge crossing that provides a minimum 75 year service life.

The upgrades will include adding steel or concrete pile foun-

dations to concrete bridge abutments and increasing waterway openings — thus hardening the infrastructure for the future improving the hydraulic opening, improving the structure’s resiliency to severe weather events and decreasing the scour vulnerability of the bridge.

Other additions to this new bridge include increased vehicle lane widths from 10 feet to 12 feet, wider roadway width between curbs, a small shoulder for both sides and a pedestrian sidewalk with railing.

“It’s going to be labor intensive,” said Fisher.

CONSTRUCTION TASKS Construction will require permanent property impacts, such as one fee acquisition, two permanent easements and eight temporary easements for construction — spaces for construction, design and environmental groups to do their work.

The construction of the new bridge will also require one structure removal, William Sullivan’s building.

Sullivan’s building, which was primarily used as apartment space, has three separate foundations. Due to the locations of the foundations, it’s not going to be possible for construction workers to put in a new bridge safely, so the entire building has to be removed.

“We don’t like doing this,” Fisher said. “We don’t like to look at this as an option.”

SUPERVISOR’S CONCERNS Black Brook Supervisor Ricky Nolan, who expressed his sadness of the demolishing of Sullivan’s building, expressed his and the town’s biggest concern of the Au Sable Forks Fire Department and the Au Sable Forks VolJeffrey Fisher, project manager unteer Ambulance. for the NYS Department of TransWith the incorporation of portation, gave a presentation this bridge, traffic would be about the construction of the new dwindled down to one lane bridge in Au Sable Forks separating Essex and Clinton counties. with a traffic signal light.

Public hearing set for occupancy tax amendment

ELIZABETHTOWN — Essex County lawmakers on Tuesday continued to hammer out some of the wrinkles related to the proposed tax on vacation rental units, including exactly which properties will be exempt.

Answer: All units renting out their facilities for less than 30 consecutive days will be subject to the 3 percent tax, said County Attorney Dan Manning. Those include condos, campgrounds with permanent structures, tourist homes, boarding houses, lodges, convention centers and hunting camps. The public is invited to sound off at a public hearing on Sept. 28 at 9:30 a.m. before lawmakers move forward with the amendment.

Lawmakers take wait-and-see approach to tanker storage plan

By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

ELIZABETHTOWN — Essex County lawmakers said Tuesday they need more information before sounding off on the Saratoga & North Creek Railway’s plan to store a fleet of decommissioned oil tanker cars on the tracks between Newcomb and Saratoga Springs.

“We’re kind of waiting,” said Essex County Chairman Bill Ferebee.

Earlier this summer, Saratoga & North Creek Railway President Ed Ellis briefed the Warren County Board of Supervisors on the company’s plan to store a fleet of tankers on a section of

tracks pending safety upgrades that are now required by the federal government.

Last week, that board opted to table the discussion following feedback from the Department of Conservation and the Adirondack Park Agency.

Assemblyman Dan Stec, who was present in Elizabethtown on Tuesday to brief the board on recent activities, said he was unsure if legally, municipalities even have a say on the railway’s plan.

“I’m not really clear if a local government has a role or not,” said Stec.

It was presented to Warren County more as a courtesy, he said.

NEWS IN BRIEF

While Stec said his initial reaction to the proposal was one of discomfort, it may be premature to flat out reject the idea. He added that he would like to see the railway, which is owned by Iowa Pacific Holdings, succeed.

The lawmaker said he had several unanswered questions, including those related to security, visual impact and the ultimate fate of the tankers, which may never be put back into service.

“Local government doesn’t have enough information to say if we like it or don’t like it,” said Stec.

Ellis told Warren County lawmakers that the measure may bring in seven figures for the company, which is struggling to turn a profit.

It remains unclear where the tankers would be stored.

Ferebee said he looks forward to discussing the issue further with Newcomb Supervisor George Canon, who was not present at the meeting.

The combination of new pipelines and more stringent safety measures has led to the glut of unused cars.

Numerous environmental groups have come out against the proposal, including the Adirondack Council.

A change.org petition has already garnered 7,578 signatures against the measure by the time this story went to print on Tuesday.

Bizarre world of politics

.S. Politics is one of the biggest money businesses in the world.

In so many ways the process to gain political influence has no boundaries.

As citizens of this great democracy we would like to think those involved in the business of politics would look beyond petty skirmishes and foolish statements, but that, perhaps, would be expecting too much from those in control of our government and those who seek control over our government.

In the current political climate the race for the highest office in the land seems mired in contradictions. Both party’s leading candidates are doing things that would have been unimaginable in prior elections.

In the past a candidate wouldn’t think of insulting a voting block like the Hispanic population, yet the leading Republican candidate repeatedly does just that.

A candidate would never rope themselves away from the press and refuse to answer questions leaving the talking heads to present their own version of the issue and chip away at the candidate’s credibility, yet the leading Democrat has.

A candidate would never show their face in public if more than 70 percent of the public thought the best one word description for them was “liar” and the second best description was “distrustful”.

When President Obama was elected he was described as a very likeable person. So who would vote for a candidate best described as “arrogant” or “blowhard”?

The election is likely to be a referendum on the current state of the American political system. The simple fact that these candidates are still in the race is amazing alone, but to be leading the race clearly shows the nation is hungry for, not just new leadership, but a very different type of leader.

The American electorate is tired of politicians who promise to serve and address the nation’s issues only to end up being more interested in themselves, their party and their own legacy.

Childish behavior has no place in American politics nor in a serious society that seeks to uplift its people and encourage increased participation.

Risks outweigh rewards in oil tanker storage plan A

s if thousands of oil tankers clattering through the North Country wasn’t enough, movement is underway to store them here, too.

A local railway has recently revealed their proposal to shore up their sagging business model: Indefinitely store a fleet of decommissioned oil tanker cars on the tracks between Newcomb and Saratoga Springs.

That’s the pitch Saratoga & North Creek Railway President Ed Ellis made to the Warren County Board of Supervisors earlier this summer.

Packing the lines with some 500 cars would help the struggling company turn a profit, Ellis told lawmakers. Perhaps even seven figures, a much-needed injection of capital as the company attempts to shore up their struggling tourist transit line.

The concept would actually be darkly humorous if the company, which is part of Iowa Pacific Holdings, wasn’t so earnest about carrying it out.

Oil traffic is already a hot-button issue as fleets continue to ship their payload from North Dakota to downstate refineries.

They do so through some of the most fragile terrain in the country, including on tracks located just feet from Lake Champlain and the Hudson, Boreas and Opalescent rivers.

While first responders and emergency service agencies continue to receive disaster training, all readily admit that a spill would be catastrophic for the region, perhaps even irreversible.

What’s more, the dangers posed by this uptick in train traffic is one of the few issues upon which the diverse crew of stakeholders across the Adirondack Park actually agree, which makes the railway’s plan to create a toxic waste graveyard that much more bizarre.

The proposal also contradicts the state’s vision for the region.

If the plan comes into fruition, these cars, which do not meet current safety standards, will be stored near the tracts of newly acquired state land that Gov. Andrew Cuomo has repeatedly flagged as a hotspot for economic development and increased tourism opportunities.

Not so fast, argues the railway.

The arrangement would be a temporary one as they examine how to update the tankers, some 500 of them, to meet bolstered safety standards. After that, the tankers would be spirited off the tracks and back into service.

But there are too many unanswered questions: How much residual oil will be left in the trains?

Will they be inspected prior to arriving at their destination or afterwards?

How many cars will eventually be stored?

Will the strategy spread to neighboring counties?

Will local municipalities be compensated for the risk?

Will it set a precedent for the storage of additional hazardous materials within the Adirondack Park?

Furthermore, the wheels of government move slowly, especially at the federal level, and we have no reason to believe a temporary arrangement wouldn’t take on more permanent tones, especially if the bottom continues to fall out of the oil-by-rail market.

In fact, the tanker storage trend shows no sign of abating as shipments of crude continue to slow in the wake of newly-completed pipelines.

Last month, Iowa Pacific Holdings told Reuters that they predict 50,000 cars will come off the tracks as the new rules are phased in.

While it seems that simply turning these cars into scrap would be the most sensible option, analysts have said it’s an unlikely scenario considering the unpredictability of global energy trends. Companies have little to lose by simply hanging onto them and hoping for a reversal.

Maybe they’ll leak oil, maybe they won’t. But no amount of reassurances and safeguards will negate the fact that creating a repository of tankers is anathema to the Adirondack Park’s identity as a global leader in environmental sustainability.

We respect the fact that the company is in a tough spot. We hate to see local businesses suffering. But aside from tossing the subsidiary of a out-of-state company a temporary lifeline, we see no broader benefits coming from such an arrangement, only risks.

Last week, the Warren County Board of Supervisors tasked their attorney with researching their options, while the Department of Conservation and the Adirondack Park Agency look into the permitting process.

We encourage our elected state and local officials to sound off against this arrangement, that is, unless they want to be in the tanker storage business.

Such an agreement would only be within the best interests of one group.

And that, we feel, violates the spirit of the Adirondack Park.

places to cut budgets to stay within the cap.”

The action, which will also eliminate a clerk position, is subject to permissive referendum. Objectors have until Sept. 24 to circulate petitions to force the issue on the ballot this November.

Connell said it’s a good way for voters to sound off if they think the board made the wrong decision.

“To me, that’s the important part,” he said.

Derinda Sherman said she is against the reduction, citing the high caseload derived from Northway traffic. The resident also believes that the measure reduces another element of local control, continuing a trend away from a more democratic form of local government.

In 1999, for instance, the town opted to move to a sole assessor system, while the public works chief is now appointed (as opposed to elected).

Patricia French said she failed to see the logic in the decision.

“I don’t believe it’s going to save enough to warrant eliminating that position,” said French.

Tyler, who is running unopposed to replace Connell, said he supports the decision.

Health insurance costs alone are scheduled to rise 14 percent next year, he said.

“In an ideal world, two judges,” said Tyler. “But we haven’t lived in an ideal world in a long time.”

One justice could easily carry the workload, he said, putting in between eight and 10 hours per week.

In the event of a conflict of interest — a common concern across the Adirondacks, where family ties often run deep in small towns — the justice would simply recuse himself and call in another from a nearby town, said Tyler.

Tyler said the town has done a “fantastic job” keeping taxes down while ensuring infrastructure improvements move along at a steady pace.

“As incoming supervisor, I will do the best job I can, whether a one-judge system, or a two-judge system, to make it work,” said Tyler.

In Essex County, the issue has gone to permissive referendum twice in as many years.

Jay eliminated one of their positions in 2013. Since then, said Supervisor Archie Depo, no problems have arisen.

“It’s worked out great,” said Depo. “Zero issues.”

Depo said he hasn’t heard of any conflicts. Court continues to meet once per week, just as it did before.

In Willsboro, a measure to reduce a judge position last year was torpedoed by taxpayers.

“Things really haven’t changed,” said Supervisor Shaun Gillilland. “It’s still status quo.”

Gillilland said he would be following progress in Westport.

Willsboro, too, faces a 14 percent rise in health insurance next year alongside rising asphalt and salt prices. The town is also looking at a mandated union wage increase of 28 cents per hour and increased retirement costs.

As next year’s budget starts to take shape this fall, Gillilland said it’s going to

cord under a different name and eventually moved on with their lives, raising families and performing with reggae outfits on the regional circuit.

Bobby Hackney had three sons, Julian, Urian and Bobby Jr. As his kids started getting into hardcore and skateboarding culture, Bobby Sr. told them he and his brother, Dannis, used to play the same type of music when they were younger (The third brother, David, passed away in 2000).

The younger Hackeys didn’t believe him.

But in 2008, they discovered some old Death recordings online, their wicks kept alive by obscure record collectors, and were blown away: Death was punk before the term even existed. Their dad and uncles were punk rock progenitors. And very few people even knew about this long-forgotten strand of music history.

Armed with a 1974 demo plucked from their dad’s attic, the younger Hackneys helped drum up interest. Drag City issued the recordings in 2009. That release, paired with a critically-acclaimed 2012 documentary, “A Band Called Death,” has led to a full-scale revival.

Hackey admits that it can often be tough escaping from under his famous family’s shadow.

“It’s kind of weird situation,” he said.

In certain circles, people don’t know about Rough Francis’ background and story. In others, people know who they are because of the family connection.

And still others find about Death by way of Rough Francis themselves, explained Hackney.

“That sweetens the deal for fans,” he said. “They like us even more because we’re related to them.”

All in all, the ride has been awesome, said the singer.

Saturday marks their first time appearing the Otis Mountain Get Down, which is now in its third year.

COMMENTARY

Little Bits Defunct words Gordie Little

T

he older I get, the more I realize how many words I grew up with, are no longer in the everyday lexicon. If you take a moment between sips, you will no doubt come up with many names for coffee you haven’t heard in years. Try it: java, joe, mud, brew, battery acid, brain juice, high test and bean juice.

Here’s another word you might not remember: wattle.

I mentioned it to my friend Les, asking him to use it in a sentence. His response?

“Wattle you come up with next?”

Laura is a former neighbor living in Franklin County. I spotted a photo of a marvelous fence construction in her yard a while ago. It appears to be an eight-foot-diameter circle of twigs woven between and around sixteen upright poles. She referred to it as a wattle and seeing the word in print caused me to laugh out loud or LOL, as they say in text talk.

How this young woman became familiar with such an ancient term is beyond me. My late mother had wattles all over the place. We had woven wattle baskets, wattle furniture and fences. We knew people who built wattle and daub chicken coops.

What ever happened to that perfectly good word?

We often called it “twig work.” Our son Bruce worked constructing a fabulous home in Connecticut years ago. He is a twig work expert and built fabulous things at that location. One of the exterior stairways to the second floor was made cleverly inside a huge hollowed tree.

I interviewed a business woman in the High Peaks and admired the twig work railings along the steps and deck to her home. She did all the work herself.

I have likewise seen beautiful wattle artwork. Twig and branch weaving is a great craft. There are so many things that can be used for wattle. A good one is bamboo, especially for weaving a privacy fence. I think we had a wattle bird cage when we lived in Massena Center.

Sadly, I awoke one morning to find a smiling cat and only feathers inside the wattle.

Bye bye, birdie.

Hundreds of years ago, willow was the most popular material for wattle fences. It often took root and sustained itself over time. My mother always had a supply of withies stacked at the back of the shed to make wattle fences for her garden. Oh, yeah, “withy,” is another word you might not recall. Withies are the flexible branches use for weaving wattles.

By the way, the wattle under a turkey’s chin is completely different.

From yearbook club, a digital journalism class is born

By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

ELIZABETHTOWN — Several years ago, Connie Blaine was presented with a vexing issue: Enrollment at Elizabethtown-Lewis Central was declining, but the costs of yearbooks continued to escalate.

It put the yearbook coordinator in a tough spot: At $70 a pop, the price points just weren’t feasible for the average family.

But still, kids wanted them, seniors and underclassmen alike.

The club reached $3,000 in debt before pulling the plug on their supplier, Jostens.

Opting for the do-it-yourself route, Blaine purchased a book-binding machine, which proved to be a practical solution: the kids got their yearbooks and gained some hands-on experience in the process.

“That was an amazing experience for our students,” said Blaine. “They actually physically made the book from start to finish.”

The kids were involved in every aspect of production, from conceptualizing thematic designs to page layout.

The results were innovative works that offered a unique marriage of digital technology to the old craft — like last year’s edition, an installment that emulated an iPad, right down to the student pictures portrayed as apps, with layout on other pages influenced by social media sites like Instagram and Pinterest.

Starting this year, yearbook production will be formalized

in a new digital journalism class.

While Photoshop and layout came as part of the previous territory, the new course will now include a writing component.

Blaine hopes attaching a grade to the process will encourage a higher degree of professionalism as well as act as a trigger to stimulate interest in possible career possibilities.

Students will also earn college credits because it is part of the district’s bridge program with North Country Community College.

To further reduce costs, Blaine is organizing a consignment sale at the ELCS Huntley Auditorium on Sept. 26.

She’s actively seeking vendors to unload their unwanted kids and baby stuff, everything from toys to clothing — especially fall and winter apparel.

Vendors will keep 75 percent of the proceeds, with the remaining 25 percent going towards the yearbook club.

A successful sale will see prices drop to $25 per unit, said Blaine.

The advisor hopes the public will turn out to be a supportive voice for the kids and their efforts.

“They say that a picture is worth a thousand words,” said Blaine, “but when you read about an experience you had, that brings it back in a way that looking at a picture of you sitting at a desk doesn’t.”

ELCS Yearbook Club Consignment Sale: Saturday, Sept. 26 at the ELCS Huntley Auditorium. Sale starts at 9 a.m., with items dropping to half-price (as marked) after 1 p.m. Cash only.

To sign up as a vendor, find them on Facebook or visit tinyurl. com/oyezkaq.

For the past several years, students at Elizabethtown-Lewis Central have been designing yearbooks themselves. A consignment sale later this month aims to further reduce costs for students.

Meet the candidates: Essex In Essex, five candidates are competing for two open board seats

By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

ESSEX — Five candidates are running for two available seats on the town council, making the race for the town’s governing body one of the most competitive in Essex County.

We checked in with the hopefuls to see why they’re running, what issues are important to them and what, if anything, is wrong with local government.

James LaForest, incumbent Independent, Essex, Love It or Leave It Party LaForest is unique in that he’s the lone incumbent in the race. The official was appointed to the board in April and decided to run for a full term after he learned that petitions were being circulated on his behalf.

Once he saw the field emerge, he was all in.

LaForest says experience is one of his strongest assets.

“I didn’t feel that the candidates running had enough experience of the town in Essex to reflect what our needs are,” said LaForest.

The town doesn’t have much discretionary funding, said LaForest, only about $100,000 each year. Creating a longterm plans for those funds is paramount, he said. Perhaps a task force should even be created.

“We need to get away from this day-by-day, just wait to react to what happens, running around like a chicken squawking,” said LaForest.

LaForest, who previously served on the board before stepping down in Nov. 2012, said while town boards have very little power, decision-making is easier if officials work together

www.suncommunitynews.com

as a collegial group. He’s happy with the current makeup of the board and their working relationship.

It’s because of this positive atmosphere, said LaForest, that the board is making progress on a number of vital issues, including the exploration of shared water services with Willsboro.

The meeting last month to discuss water issues was a prime example of this, he said.

“I think the group works very well,” said LaForest. “It’s a new atmosphere in Essex. The doom and gloom is gone.”

LaForest said the hunt for a new water source is the town’s most pressing issue. He’s in favor of exploring ideas of how to cooperate with Willsboro — including the construction of transmission line if a viable water source is discovered at Hathaway Park — because a larger system will benefit both communities, not just the 100-or-so homes in Essex who use the current system.

The incumbent also placed a high emphasis on civic participation. Perhaps a newsletter might bring more people to meetings, he said.

“A lot of people don’t know about something until it’s already done,” said LaForest. “In a little town like this, it’s very easy to communicate with a lot of people. I think a newsletter followed up by every member of the board — I think we can do that. I think it’s going to work out very well.”

Are there problems with local government?

“We have so little discretionary money, what can the town run?” asked LaForest. “We’re working out very well, I don’t see any problems. I think we’re doing as good of job with discretionary money as we can.”

LaForest noted he was assembling a list of comments and recommendations following the state audit released last month that revealed deficiencies related to transfer station receipts, payroll and water charges across two administrations, those of current supervisor Ed Gardner and his predecessor, Sharon Boisen, who is again challenging Gardner for the position.

The Valley News Sun • September 12, 2015 | 11

Weaknesses in preventative controls, said the audit, resulted in unnecessary expenditures and lost revenue to the town. A subsequent lack of action led to an environment that allowed “significant deficiencies” to occur and remain undetected.

Jonathan Pribble Independent, Essex, Love It or Leave It Party While a number of town residents have asked him to run for office over the years, the ongoing water and sewer woes, and how they’re being handled, acted as the catalyst for his decision to enter the race, said Pribble.

With a background in construction, Pribble says his firsthand experience will prove to be useful for the community as it nears a decision on a new water source.

“A lot of people in government just aren’t familiar with procedures,” said Pribble. “I think I could really help with stuff like this. There’s no one on the board that has the experience I do.”

Pribble, who owns a small excavation company, says elected officials who live outside of the hamlet are often unaware of how water and sewer issues hit taxpayers in the pocketbooks.

The water project is the most important issue facing the town, said Pribble.

He has three properties in the village, each with a different bill.

“It’s almost like another set of taxes we have to deal with,” said Pribble. “They’re impressive bills and might get more impressive with the new water system.”

The candidate, a father of three, is also concerned about how to pay for the recently-completed sewer project, which continues to be plagued with problems that residents, especially seasonal folks, often cannot navigate due to bureaucracy.

continue to have problems.

“Not only was there a drastic increase in rates, but the systems don’t work properly,” said Pribble. “Things just went in too fast.”

Does he see any problems with local government?

Civic involvement.

Pribble cited an era of gloom that he says is now lifting.

“When people were asking me to run, I don’t think anyone was running,” said Pribble. “No one wanted to be involved with the scandal with the town clerk — I think it’s just a lack of people wanted to be involved. I think it’s great to have a bunch of people running.”

Gretel Schueller Write-in candidate, Democratic Party While the write-in candidate acknowledges that she faces an additional hurdle this fall, success is not impossible, said Schueller, who decided to run after receiving positive feedback from friends and neighbors.

Schueller said she noticed a growing dissatisfaction amongst her neighbors — “a divisiveness about town doings that didn’t used to permeate conversations” — that was an indication that something needed to change.

The fact that there are five candidates running for two open town council positions is an indicator of that, she said.

The candidate called the ongoing sewer and water project a “boondoggle.”

“I will be keeping my eyes wide open to ensure this project is completed efficiently and ecologically,” she said.

Schueller, who first came to Essex in 2002, said her candidacy is unique in that she’s one of just two candidates that still has young children living at home.

She and her husband, Todd Goff, reside with their young

www.suncommunitynews.com

son in the same home Goff ’s grandparents once did. It’s something that gives her perspective in ensuring Essex remains a livable and affordable place for young families, she said.

Schueller said the town impressed her with a strong sense of community and history.

Living in the hamlet, she said, allows her to directly experience the need to create sustainable futures for local businesses while respecting the town’s historical character.

The candidate says she has witnessed firsthand some of the challenging hurdles new businesses encounter, particularly those that do not impact the town’s historical integrity.

“I’d like to see the town become more supportive of the businesses and organizations that make Essex such a great place to live,” she said.

The local food scene is also a plus, said Schueller. As a journalist, she helped get a story published in a national magazine, Eating Well, about the emergence of the region as a major food hub.

“This is huge and needs to be capitalized on,” she said. “I’d like us to do more to promote the resources our home has to offer.”

Schueller also volunteers at several local organizations, including the Whallonsburgh Grange and the Belden Noble Memorial Library.

The candidate said the lack of transparency at the town level is problematic.

While several private citizens ensure government documents and unofficial board minutes are posted online, said Schueller, it’s a task that really needs to come from the town itself.

“We need to share the info more publicly with citizens,” said Schueller.

Tom Stransky Independent, Essex Now Party Tom Stransky entered the race because he wants to help

move the town forward in creating a more welcoming atmosphere for businesses and families who might want to relocate to Essex.

Safety measures should be bumped, like crosswalks, for instance.

Two important issues facing the community are the water situation and the lack of universal high-speed Internet, said Stransky.

At the long-term level, wiring the town is critical for drawing in newcomers, said the candidate, a father of three who is an active member of the community.

Stransky sits on the board of the Essex Community Fund, is the vice chair of the Essex Planning Board and drives an ambulance for the town’s emergency squad.

He’s also involved in Essex Initiatives, the group of local business owners and citizens whose goal is to improve the town’s physical appearance and business climate.

A resurrection of the town’s public wi-fi network would mean visitors and residents wouldn’t have to rely on the handful of open stores that might provide the service, he said.

Are there problems with local government?

Stransky said the public needs to be more aware of the town’s short- and long-term goals, including the numerous ongoing large scale infrastructure projects.

“It seems like there are plans in place without the citizens being aware of what the town leaders think is important,” said Stransky. “There needs to be a list of goals that the town wants accomplished — I don’t think those are made public until someone asks for it.”

Jay White Independent, Agriculturist Party Essex is at a tipping point, said Jay White.

The candidate is running to promote what he says are three key strategies for the community.

The first, he said, is stewardship: promoting and respecting the history, people and natural resources of the community.

The second is “partnering with stakeholders within the town and region to find shared services and invent ways to thrive in the new economy to build a stronger tax base,” said White.

And then there’s entrepreneurship. The town needs to support the innovators within the community who are cultivating new opportunities, he said.

“We must reward people who are taking risks in our community.”

It’s only through dynamic town leadership that the town will survive and thrive, said White, and the town board must start playing a leading role in these initiatives.

Other important issues include identifying a “safe and affordable” source of water for the hamlet, creating a “strong and sustainable” tax base and developing a thriving yearround community.

“The best way to preserve Essex is not by pumping it with embalming fluid and setting it on a shelf,” said White. “Essex is best preserved by becoming a self-sustaining economic engine of opportunity.”

White, referring indirectly to the state audit, said the town also needs to establish better financial oversight over taxpayer money. The board also shouldn’t need the state comptroller to advise “common sense” financial controls, he said.

What are some of the problems with local government?

The town board, said the candidate, should work on their customer service skills.

“Find solutions for residents, not excuses,” said White, who serves as the president of the town’s zoning board of appeals as well as Cornell Cooperative Extension.

In addition to encouraging and supporting local businesses, the town board also needs to have a presence at economic and community development forums: board members, for instance, are never at Essex Initiative or ROOST meetings, White noted.

“The town board is generally stuck in a status quo mentality,” said White.

Voters head to the polls on Nov. 3.

Hundreds turned out for Labor Day celebrations in Au Sable Forks on Monday, Sept. 7, including this raft of Catholic sisters cruising down Main Street as part of the community’s popular parade.

The new culvert, about 45 percent of which was funded by TNC grants (the rest comes from Essex County), also serves a practical purpose: the makeover reduces flood risk. The River Road culvert, in particular, has been particularly problematic over the years.

“It’ll make our lives 100 percent easier,” said Essex County Department of Public Works Director Chris Garrow.

Just that site has cost the county nearly $59,000 between 2003-13.

What typically happens with undersized culverts, Garrow explained, is that they buckle under heavy rains: the water needs to go somewhere, which is often onto the road. Banks erode.

And once the culvert gets taken, the road collapses.

Even the structures that don’t buckle experience scour, or the removal of sediment over time due to swiftly moving water.

“It’s crazy,” said Garrow. “The water finds the path of least resistance and it takes it out.”

After the damage comes the paperwork. Lots of it.

Intense storms are more frequent than they there were several years ago.

“The projections now are that that trend will continue,” said Brown. “Climate change is hard to get your head around, but something like this is just so tangible.”

New York is home to over 1 million culverts that connect thousands of stream segments.

Does Brown see the concept gaining traction elsewhere?

The response has been favorable from local municipalities, she said. The restraints are mostly budgetary.

The River Road project, alongside another at Holcomb Brook just up River Road, will serve as demonstration projects. Videos will be produced and taken to transportation conferences around the country as stakeholders seek to explore the intersection between roads and nature.

Hopefully they will stimulate discussion in communities facing similar problems and the partners can hash out a financial model.

“We would love to see more of these types of culverts and move similar projects forward,” said Brown. “The key is figuring out how to make it happen.”

Garrow said he was thrilled about the results.

“These are two huge projects we got off our plate.”

Elizabethtown-Lewis/Westport Griffins Boys Soccer Head coach: Paul Buehler Assistant coaches: George Huttig & Jason Fiegl 2014 record: 12-4-1

It didn’t take long for last season’s Griffins to gel together.

2014 marked the first year for a combined ElizabethtownLewis/Westport team that, by season’s end, took Chazy to the wire in a penalty-kick decided Class D championship.

Chazy went on to a state final four appearance, at which yet another game decided by penalty kicks kept the team from a shot at the championship.

“Great first season for the Griffins,” said head coach Paul Buehler, whose team will look again to challenge the Eagles from the north for a sectional title.

To do so, the Griffins will have to replace a handful of talented players in Zac Noka-Bailey, Wesley Whalen, Isaiah Turner, Caleb Denton and Will Tomkins.

Buehler said that this year’s squad will rely on its speed and experience, while patience and team play will be key areas to build upon as late-summer practices give way to the regular season.

Thomas Mero, Joel Morris, Anderson Gay, Trevor Brooks and Sam Napper comprise a core group of players to keep an eye on this fall.

The Lady Griffin varsity girls program enters its first season, joining the forces of Westport (Eagles) and Elizabethtown-Lewis (Lions) into what it hopes can be a mythical season (Griffins).

“With this being the first merged season for the girls, I am impressed with their hard work and commitment to the team,” coach Brad Rascoe said. “They are all getting along as true teammates.”

Both teams return skilled athletes to the squad of 18 players, including at the back, where they will have a wealth of keeper experience with senior Emma Disogra and sophomore Malynda Lobdell, who both started for their respective programs in 2014 and have shared time between the pipes in the preseason.

The keepers will have an experience defense in front of them, with returning players Lucy Misarski, Jazmin Wright, Chloe Mitchell, Hannah Schwoebel, Lizzie Stephens and Annette Stephens.

Returning midfielders include Taylor Gough, Tess Andrade, Amanda Hinge, Emmalee Turner and Maggie Ploufe.

Attacking returnees include Abigail Mero, Ellie Storey and Shannon Canavan.

The team will have a duo of newcomers in Hailey Cave and Sarah Schmölz, an exchange student from Germany.

WillsboroÊ Warriors

Head coach: Andrew Lee Assistant coach: Justin Drinkwine, Clayton Cross 2014 record: 2-14-0

Although the Warriors lost a vocal leader in Nolan Murphy, he was the lone senior a year ago, leaving this year’s squad much richer in experience heading into 2015.

Returning All-Stars and team captains Lucas Cross and Zach Pierson — as well as Paul Fine-Lease — should bring strong play to the pitch.

Head coach Andrew Lee said Cross, the goalie, brings good hands and athleticism to the net while Fine-Lease is always around the ball and creates opportunities. Pierson, meanwhile, was last year’s leading scorer with 10 goals.

The coach is looking to build a team that’s competitive, works together and improves during each game, all of which should come together in the form of effort regardless of the outcome.

Play in goal and midfield figure to be strong suits for the Warriors, and on top of that, the rest of the team is showing strength with the regular season looming.

“The players have a great work ethic and are putting forth a tremendous amount of effort,” Lee said.

Girls Soccer Head coach: Dawn Bronson Assistant coach: Justin Drinkwine, Clayton Cross 2014 record: 2-14-0

Although last season saw just a pair of wins for the Lady Warriors, 2015 brings with it a roster that features eight returning starters, giving the team plenty more experience this season.

Willsboro did lose six players from last year, including one now playing at the collegiate level at Vermont Tech in Rachael Burt, but returning talent looks strong, especially on D. This year’s team features a pair of senior defenders — Jillian Dean and Taylor Bigelow — as well as three more junior defenders.

“Our team’s defense is strong,” head coach Dawn Bronson said. “The team is very versatile.”

The Warriors will also feature a handful of newcomers, but the coach said that so far the team is coming together well in the preseason and looks forward to taking on the coming fall.

“I am very enthusiastic about the team’s energy,” Bronson continued. “The girls are very confident and working hard with positioning.”

The Lady Patriots enter 2015 without a few cogs from last season, but nonetheless expect a fall in Division I to prepare them for push through sectionals.

Head coach Bruce Bourgeois expects the rest of the Class C competition — Northern Adirondack and Lake Placid — to “give us a run for our money” this season, making the regular season tests against bigger schools like Beekmantown or Saranac key in getting the team ready for the playoffs.

AuSable Valley may have lost Kendra Nieman, Meghan Strong, Mady Rondeau, Jeanna Manning and Priscilla Coats, but the team has the athletes to fill the cleats.

Bourgeois said the team is very fast this year, both at front and in back, and the defense is expected to be a strong as well.

“We have a number of players we can utilize in a variety of positions that allow us to change tempo and strategy of game,” the coach added.

With only three seniors on a roster of 15, player health will be important this fall. Sydney Snow will be playing goal for the first time, but Bourgeois added that she’s mobile and tough in net.

Captains this season are seniors Vanessa Garrow, Briana Savage and Sydney Snow.

Assistant coach: Sean Platt

Despite an early oust a year ago in the Class D quarterfinals, Keene put together a successful 12-5 season a year ago and will look to carry that momentum into 2015.

While it’ll be no small task to replace the talents of Naomi Peduzzi and Haley Garno-Potter, the Beavers still field some strong returning athletes from a year ago, including senior captain Grace Sturges and junior captain Hanna Whitney, one of the league’s top scoring threats the previous fall.

“We are looking to improve on all aspects of the game,” said first year Beavers head coach Jody Whitney, who added that he hopes the girls can put together a safe, competitive season that carries over into playoffs.

So far in the preseason, he said, communication and teamwork have been strengths that should serve the Beavers well in the fall.

The team has a mix of both veteran and new talent, including four seniors, four juniors, two sophomores and two freshmen. Also unlisted below are three exchange students who the coach did not yet have info for as of press time.

A year ago, the Keene Beavers put together a strong run through the regular season and into the playoffs, winning Division III of the Northern Soccer League.

The playoff run for the Beavers ended with a 1-0 semifinal setback to Elizabethtown-Westport, the same team that took eventual state semifinalist Chazy to the wire in the final.

2015, however, brings with it a very different looking Keene squad. Colton Venner, Brandon Dumas, Harry Joanette and Austin Brown have all since graudated, leaving head coach Charlie Platt with a goal to “rebuild a young, skilled team.”

Despite the losses, the coach said that the midfield features lots of depth and experience.

Seniors Justin Haverlick and Cougar Smith are among many to watch this season, bringing returning experience.

Up-and-comers Lucas Isham and Josh Baldwin, both sophomores, have also shown promise as well as years more to play in the Beavers uniform.

AuSableÊ ValleyÊ Patriots Cross Country Head coach: Sean Ganter Assistant coach: Heith Ford Boys 2014 record: 5-15 Girls 2014 record: 2-15

The AuSable Valley cross country team returns experienced runners for 2015, and while depth may be an issue — namely for the girls squad — head coach Sean Ganter is excited for what lies ahead this fall.

While the boys team lost Justin Cook, Ganter added that several harriers have “improved tremendously” since last season. Zachary Lawrence, Matthew Russom and Aaron Turetsky currently lead the pack, while Joseph Forker, Troy Straight, David Vicaro and Alex Wilson will provide depth.

“We are very excited for the possibilities for this team,” Ganter said. “The experienced runners have paid their dues and should be ready to move the team forward.”

The girls group, which as of press time was five runners deep (Ganter added that recruitment continues), will be without two strong all-around athletes in Rachel Ford and Jessica Malskis. Hannah Lawrence and Olivia Hetfield — new to cross country after a successful track season — will be strong contributors. Lawrence is the team’s lone senior. Team success, added Ganter, will rely upon season-long improvement.

Boys Soccer Head coach: Mike Farbotko 2014 record: 0-12

With seven different AuSable Valley seniors on the roster this season, the Patriots are poised to better on their winless campaign a year ago.

Despite five key losses in Zach Kelly, Ian Rennie, Riley Taylor, Zac Cosgrove and Prescott Doyle, head coach Mike Farbotko is expecting strong play both at midfield and the defensive end to help AuSable Valley in the coming season. Nathan Devins and Caleb Hamilton will anchor the mid and “consistent effort from Alex Knapp and Chris Hickey on defense” has proved to be a preseason strength, explained the coach.

Farbotko is looking for hard practice, teamwork and consistent effort to lead to challenging each and every CVAC team this season.

Alex Knapp, Nathan Devins, Lucas Finnegan and Chris Hickey have all demonstrated strong senior leadership, while up-and-coming sophomores Joel Martineau and Caleb Hamilton are expected to play major roles this season.

In all, the five comprise a core group to keep an eye on in 2015.

Possession and tempo will be key for this year’s group, added Farbotko.

Here come the Patriots.

AuSable Valley’s 2014 season may have ended in the Section VII Class C championship game against Saranac Lake, but that only tells part of the story.

After a 43-7 setback to the Saranac Chiefs in the regular season, the Patriots avenged the loss when it counted most, upsetting the Chiefs in the Class C semifinals 14-8.

Though Saranac Lake took the title game, AuSable Valley managed to hang 23 points on a team that would eventually finish the year ranked fifth among all Class C teams in the state.

Now it’s time for the next step.

New at the helm this season is head coach Ed McCallister, and after the first two weeks of practice, he likes what he has seen.

“These players have worked very hard every practice,” McCallister said. “And they come back the next day with even more intensity.”

The coach went on to explain that after a few seasons of struggle, he and his coaching staff have been at work developing mental attitude and digesting change.

From the locker room to the play calling, AuSable Valley has a new look.

“Not that it was done wrong before, but we are doing it differently,” McCallister explained, “and now the players have to put as much time off the field studying as they do on the field working.”

In the end, it’s all about taking the good athletes the team already has and turning them into good football players — especially for the ones who experienced success at the junior varsity level and have moved up this coming season.

When it comes to who and what to watch this season, McCallister is focused on team. The coaching staff has the goal of developing standouts on both side of the ball, and some players bring back into 2015 the understanding of what it takes to win at the varsity level.

That will include Will Coats, a returning starter at quarterback who still has two more seasons of eligibility. The then-sophomore gunner was 13-for-18 for 211 yards and a touchdown against a stingy Red Storm defense in the Class C championship game.

But ultimately, it’s all about the sum of the parts.

“We believe competition will keep everyone working and it will only strengthen our entire team,” McCallister said of players working into the starting role week-to-week. “I believe football is the ultimate team sport and as long as everyone puts the team above the individual, we just might open a few eyes.”
