Animal lovers should head to Evans Chevrolet this weekend. Together with Wanderers’ Rest Humane Association, the Baldwinsville auto dealership will host an adopt-a-thon from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday March 26. Participants can visit with both dogs and cats from the shelter while checking out what the facility has to offer. Owner Mark Evans initiated the event, which is the second held at the dealership. He will also donate $200 to Wanderers’ Rest for every vehicle purchased (with a coupon) the day of the event. “These events bring our facility to light,” said Denise Adams, the animal care manager at Wanderers’ Rest. “We have had a number of animals find their forever families from being brought to Wanderers’ Rest volunteer Aaron Hopkins holds one of these events. That is by far the most the shelter’s canine residents. rewarding thing in this business.” While volunteers will focus on getting “feline friends” adopted during the event, there will also be dogs available for adoption. While participants will not be able to take pets home directly from the event, they can fill out an adoption application for a particular animal and WRHA will hold the animal while the application is processed. Evans Chevrolet is located at 112 Syracuse St. in Baldwinsville. Wanderers’ Rest Humane Association is an open admission shelter dedicated to providing the highest quality care and compassion for the animals entrusted to it while leading the community in creating a more humane society. The facility is located at 7138 Sutherland Drive, Canastota, NY 13032. For more information or to obtain a coupon, call 697-2796.

Rear parking lot at senior center could lead to injuries By Erin Wisneski editor@baldwinsvillemessenger.com

Canton Woods Senior Center has lost use of 20-plus parking spots in its rear lot. The lot has begun to buckle due to an insufficient base and excess snow. In addition, while being plowed this winter, the lot suffered more damage as part of the pavement was ripped up. “The appearance of those heaves looks like people are buried under [the lot],” Village Engineer Tim Baker said at a recent village of Baldwinsville board meeting. To prevent visitors from parking in the lot and potentially tripping on the heaved pavement, the lot has been barricaded until repairs can be made. However, without the lot, there is insufficient parking at the center on certain days. According to the senior center’s Director Ruth Troy, who said the lot is a pressing issue, especially considering the increased activity at the center, two weeks ago, many visitors were forced to park along Canton Street as the regular lot was full. Officials for the village of Baldwinsville and the towns of Van Buren and Lysander have discussed solutions to the matter (through inter-municipal cooperation, the three municipalities share responsibility for the senior center). The main obstacle to repairing the lot though is funding, which Van Buren officials estimated would have a total project cost of $81,000 according to the town’s Community Development application, which included a grant application for lot repairs; however, that money would not be available until next year. Village Engineer Baker said one solution would be to pull up the black top and put gravel down for the meantime until the funds can be secured to repave the lot. As of yet, there has been no solution to the matter.

The rear parking lot at Canton Woods Senior Center is so severely damaged, the Baldwinsville Department of Public Works has blockaded it from use to prevent possible injury.

Community News Boards in brief

Community Development funds sought By Erin Wisneski editor@baldwinsvillemessenger.com

The village of Baldwinsville and town of Van Buren have submitted applications for Community Development grants, which are funded through the US Department of Housing and Urban Development and distributed through Onondaga County. Grants are available for areas that meet established criteria (such as low-income areas and handicap improvements in public areas) and municipalities must match 25 percent of the total project cost, which can be made in-kind services. Van Burenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2011 application included: a $100,000 (total project cost of $135,000) request for rehabilitation of one and a half miles of town roads in Seneca Knolls; $56,000 (total project cost of $75,000) to investigate sanitary sewer mains and laterals in Lower Seneca Knolls; and $60,500 (total project cost of $81,000) to remove and replace a severely damaged rear parking lot at Canton Woods Senior Center. Baldwinsvilleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2011 application included infrastructure improvements to Marble Street; and a boardwalk and pavilion at Mercer Park. Lysander did not seek any Community Development funds this year. Municipalities will be notified in the fall should whether they will be awarded the grants. Baldwinsville village election results Running unopposed, Mayor Joe Saraceni received 366 votes. The three open trustee seats have been filled by incumbents Mark Wilder and Dick Clarke, who received 301 and 280 votes respectively, and Rick Presley, who received 249 votes. Trustee candidate Mike Shepard trailed closely behind with 234 votes. Incumbent Elijah Huling, Jr. will remain the village justice receiving 225 votes, while contender John Murphy, Jr. received 191 votes. Elected candidates will begin serving the public April 1. Van Buren takes TVs According to Van Buren Highway Superintendent Ed Parks, the highway department will now accept televisions for free should residents want to dispose of them.

Bâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ville officer of the year recognized By Michael Lefancheck, Police Chief

Officer Robert A. Thibault has been named as the 2010 Police Officer of the Year for the Baldwinsville Police Department. Unlike most forms of department recognition, this award does not come from the office of the police administrator or the office of the mayor. Rather, it comes from nominations received from the officerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s peers and for that reason it holds a special significance. There were many reasons that his fellow officers gave in selecting him for this award. They include: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Officer Thibault has been involved in many drug investigations where misdemeanor and felony charges were lodged against defendants. These investigations have developed quality information for other agencies to pursue criminal activity against known defendants.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;What truly separates Officer Thibault from everyone else is his willingness to take on any position, responsibility or detail. I have never seen him refuse any request or assignment and he is always willing to assist other officers with their investigations. He always appears motivated and ready to get to work.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bob led the department in arrests and actually had doubled the number of the next highest officer. He is also the leader or among the top ranking officer in all the other categories, which is quite remarkable.â&#x20AC;?

Officer Robert A. Thibault, center, receives the 2010 Police Officer of the Year award during a recent village board meeting. Mayor Joe Saraceni, left, and Police Chief Michael Lefancheck are pictured with Thibault. Almost every nomination mentioned his work on a number of burglary investigations that he was able to solve through his investigative ability and perseverance. Others mentioned the drug arrests he made at the end of December where he observed some suspicious activity in a vehicle and

began surveillance on foot, which resulted in the recovery of drugs and numerous felony charges being lodged against the defendants. In one nomination, an officer described his investigatory abilities as; â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bob talks with citizens, gathers information and grabs on like a pit bull.â&#x20AC;? Based on his

performance this past year, I would concur with their assessment of his tenacity and desire to conduct a thorough and complete investigation. I would like to add my voice to those of his fellow officers in congratulating him on being the 2010 Baldwinsville Police Officer of Year.

Fuel saving tips

As the warmer weather arrives, many will have the urge to visit local parks, plan trips and get away for long weekends. However, with the price of gasoline rising, it would be wise for vehicle owners to consider the following tips to maximize the efficiency of vehicles before hitting the road. Drive sensibly Aggressive driving (speeding, rapid acceleration and braking) wastes gas. It can lower your gas mileage by 33 percent at highway speeds and by five percent around town. Sensible driving is also safer for you and others, so you may save more than gas money. Observe the speed limit While each vehicle reaches its optimal fuel economy at a different speed (or range of speeds), gas mileage usually decreases rapidly at speeds above 60 miles per hour. As a rule of thumb, you can assume that each five mph you drive over 60 mph is like paying an additional $0.20 per gallon for gas. Remove excess weight Avoid keeping unnecessary items in your vehicle, especially heavy ones. An extra 100 pounds in your vehicle could reduce your miles per gallon by up to two percent. The reduction is based on the percentage of extra weight relative to the vehicle’s weight and affects smaller vehicles more than larger ones. Avoid excessive idling Idling gets zero miles per gallon. Cars with larger engines typically waste more gas at idle than do cars with smaller engines. Use cruise control Using cruise control on the highway helps you maintain a constant speed and, in most cases, will save gas. Use overdrive gears When you use overdrive gearing, your car’s engine speed goes down. This saves gas and reduces engine wear. These tips were taken from fueleconomy.gov.

401(k) review and rollover can be rewarding Your 401(k) offers tax-deductible contributions, tax-deferred growth of earnings potential and a variety of investment options — so it’s a great tool for building retirement savings. Yet like all tools, your 401(k) must be used properly to get the best results. That’s why you should review your 401(k) at least annually and make whatever adjustments are needed. Depending on where you work, you may get some 401(k) review help from your plan provider. But if that assistance isn’t available, you might want to consult with a financial professional to make sure you’re getting the maximum benefit from your plan. As you begin to review your 401(k), your first question should probably be this: “How much should I contribute?” At the very least, try to put in enough to receive your employer’s matching contribution, if one is offered. If you don’t earn this match, you are essentially walking away from “free money.” Beyond this, though, the amount you put into your 401(k) might depend on what

focus

other retirement savings vehicles you have available. For instance, if you’re eligible, you may also want to contribute to a Roth IRA, which offers tax-free growth potential, provided you’ve had your account for five years and don’t start taking withdrawals until you’re 59½. Of course, it’s not only how much you put into your 401(k) that determines its success — it’s also how you choose to allocate your investment dollars. (Keep in mind that asset allocation does not guarantee a profit or protect against loss.) Your 401(k) may have a dozen or more investment choices, such as stock funds, bond funds and money market funds. To choose the right investment mix, you’ll need to consider a variety of factors, including these: Your age – Generally speaking, the younger you are, the more aggres-

sive you can afford to be with your 401(k) investments, because you’ll have decades in which to potentially overcome the inevitable down periods of the market. As you get older, you may wish to invest somewhat more conservatively, but you’ll still need some growth potential in your 401(k) portfolio. Your goals – Everyone has different goals for retirement. You might want to retire early and travel the world, while your coworker desires to work as long as possible and then, upon retirement, stay close to home and pursue hobbies. Because you each have different goals, with different income needs, you also may need to follow different investment strategies within your 401(k). Your other retirement income sources – If you have a variety of retirement income sources – a pension from another job, an IRA, a spouse with generous retirement benefits – you may need to invest differently, perhaps less aggressively, than if you had fewer options for

retirement income. Apart from putting away as much as you can into your 401(k) and choosing the right investment mix, what else can you do to get the most out of your plan? Here’s a suggestion: If you have worked at various jobs and acquired multiple 401(k)s, consider rolling them over into one account. You might save money on fees and reduce paperwork, but more importantly, you’ll be able to concentrate your resources and pursue a unified investment approach, with your investment dollars working together toward your ultimate retirement goals. As you can see, a 401(k) review and rollover can reward you in many ways — so do whatever it takes to maximize your 401(k)’s performance.

CANCER BEWARE

A group of Baldwinsville sixthgraders are memorializing a friend with a special art project at Ray Middle School. Wayne Dodge, who would have been a sixth-grader at the school this year, passed away in December 2010. Several of his classmates decided the best way to honor his memory would be to create a symbol of his spirit. To do this, they are making clay tiles with etchings of cranes on them that they will assemble as a collage and hang in the middle school. Wayne’s friends chose the crane because they feel that it symbolizes hope. Sixth-grader Jacob Bardenett

explained that there is a Japanese legend about a sick person making paper cranes. “If you make one thousand paper cranes you will be granted a wish,” he noted. He and eight of his classmates conceived the idea of using the crane on the memorial tiles after reading the book, Sadako and the Thousand Paper Cranes. The book is the true story of a young Japanese girl who developed leukemia from the radiation of the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima. She spent her last days folding paper cranes, hoping to be granted her wish to be healthy again. Wayne’s friends will not be creating

one thousand tiles, but, as Bardenett explained, the tiles they create will honor Wayne’s artistic spirit because he loved to draw. He was also generous and would give away his drawings to anyone who asked for one. Besides Bardenett, students working on the memorial are Jody Allen, Amanda Byrns, Tyler Bausch, Miranda Clark, James Coomey, Maia Falise, Destiny Gardner and Paul Schmid. School social worker Jill Joseph is overseeing the students’ efforts to create the memorial. They meet after school to work on the project. They are also working under the supervision of art teacher Debra Lynch.

Get ready for Springtime in the Village. From noon to 4 p.m. Sunday April 3, the merchant group of Baldwinsville encourages the public to stroll through downtown Baldwinsville and visit the various businesses located in the business district. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We had a tremendously successful Auâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Chocolat event this past November that brought an amazing amount of people out to the village,â&#x20AC;? said Stephanie Boivin, one of the organizers for Springtime in the Village. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Over the past few months, customers have continued to ask when we were all going to host something again.â&#x20AC;? In November, the merchant group organized Auâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Chocolat, a chocolate shopping event in which customers sampled a different piece of chocolate at every participating business. â&#x20AC;&#x153;[Springtime in the Village] will be a unique day out to kick-off spring. There is no doubt we all are craving warmer weather, so what better way to do this while strolling through the village of Baldwinsville,â&#x20AC;? Boivin asked. In an effort to promote specialty shopping, eateries, salons and the various other businesses in Baldwinsville, this event is designed to make the consumer aware of what the village offers compared with big named stores. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We believe that an event like this will spearhead a continuing interest in what businesses in our village have to offer. Rather than the mentality that shoppers must go to malls or chain stores to meet all of their shopping needs, they now realize the uniqueness and incredible opportunity to stay closer to home,â&#x20AC;? said Boivin, who owns Sissyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in the village. According to Boivin, this event promises a unique experience like Auâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Chocolat. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We hope [participants] enjoy a day out filled with socializing and discover that our village offers a warm and inviting atmosphere for people to enjoy. Each place has their own individual style to offer something for everyone,â&#x20AC;? Boivin said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We truly look forward to the coming event and, while it may not be the chocolate being served at Auâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; chocolat in November, wonder what will be up our sleeve this time.â&#x20AC;?

Disclosure, Home Inspection, And A Final Walk Through Can Help Ensure You’re Getting The Right Home

Real Estate Today and roofing materials are * mildew or mold damage * termite damage * sewer and septic system issues * the square footage of the home * property taxes * any person with a pending property claim * any road plan that will subtract at least ten feet from the front yard of the property * any structure on the property for sale that also falls on an adjacent property * a home that’s in the flight path of the local airport * if any gas or oil tank is buried in the property A disclosure form is extremely helpful in identifying any legal or physical problem(s) with a potential home, but it shouldn’t be the only precaution taken. Once the home has been appraised, the potential buyer should employ a certified and licensed professional home inspector. The inspector will examine the home for existing and potential problems. The potential buyer will then be alerted if there are any unknown problems that they want the homeowner to be responsible for prior to closing; and if there are possible future problems that they

might be responsible for in the future. The potential buyer can also better evaluate if the home has a fair asking price related to any necessary repairs. After the home inspection is complete, the home inspector will provide the potential buyer with a written report detailing the inspection results. This usually takes about fifteen days postinspection to receive. It’s important that a buyer allots enough time in their purchase offer to thoroughly review the inspection report. The buyer may want to consider negotiating with the seller to pay for part of the repairs before closing if the report unveils too many problematic areas. When negotiation fails and/or the buyer feels the home is unfairly priced, the purchase can be canceled. If the offer of purchase included a time frame by which the buyer retains the right to back out of the deal, there usually isn’t a cancellation penalty if the purchase is canceled within the specified time frame. As one last assurance that this is the right home, walk through the property about five days prior to closing to ensure that negotiations have been followed through with or that the home is in the agreed upon condition. Keep in mind that unless specified in the purchase offer, the seller can refuse a final walk through Jim Honsinger is a licensed real estate agent for Baker Real Estate, 20 Oswego St., Baldwinsville.

Trap and skeet

When buying a home, one with walk-in closets, a big kitchen, a big yard, or other attractive features is nice, but even the best features are a moot point if the physical condition or legal status of the home is problematic. Many potential buyers are completely confused when it comes to knowing what information on known material facts of a property must be disclosed by the seller. Details about the legal status or physical condition of a home are called material facts. These details are often issues that aren’t obvious to a potential buyer just from looking at the home. For example, a legal status issue could stem from an ownership rights claim on the home by an exspouse of the seller or a structure built by a neighbor on the property line (encroachment). Whereas, physical conditions might include a leaking roof, termites, or foundation crack. Much of the confusion regarding property disclosure is due to the fact that the law regarding property disclosure isn’t uniform. Most states do require a property disclosure form be completed by any homeowner attempting to sell their home. However, the law greatly varies by state as to what legal and repair issues must be disclosed by law. Real estate agents are an excellent source to find out what types of disclosures are legally required by the state the home is being sold in. Typical property disclosures would inform the buyer of the following issues: * leaking roof or foundation walls * how old shingles

Bright and early on Tuesday and Thursday mornings, students greet teacher Joelle Fiorini with, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bonjour,â&#x20AC;? as they enter her classroom at Palmer Elementary. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re practicing their French vocabulary. Fiorini is teaching 31 fourth-graders some basics of the language in a nine-week enrichment course she is conducting before the start of the school day. About half of the students attend the course on Tuesdays, and the other half come on Thursday mornings. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been learning phrases and basic vocabulary, such as the days of the week and numbers. Fiorini is also infusing French culture into the lessons, using the computer to take the

fourth-graders on virtual tours of French museums and famous French landmarks. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I loved learning French in school, and I am really enjoying teaching it to the fourth-graders at Palmer,â&#x20AC;? Fiorini said. She is volunteering her time to share her love of French with the students, and her enthusiasm is contagious. Her students are enjoying their lessons, and they arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t shy about answering her with the new vocabulary theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re learning. Principal Steven Frey said Fiorini approached him earlier in the school year regarding the enrichment class. He hopes to be able to provide Palmer students with other enrichment opportunities in the future.
