The age of the youngest of three Syracuse teens charged with the rape and robbery of a 31-year-old woman.

Police say the child’s accomplices were ages 14 and 16 and that the incident occured in a vacant lot on Oneida Street in October. The 13- and 14-year-olds, not named by police, were arrainged as juveniles. Otis L. Tillie, 16, of 500 Robinson St. was arrainged as an adult.

Record snowfall expected

A screenshot of the state DOT’s mobile app, 511NY, shows construction projects around Syracuse.

Just last week, state-wide law firm Finkelstein & Partners introduced the F&P Car Accident Toolkit, a mobile app for iPhones and Android devices that includes built-in utilities to capture the details of an accident that could be handy later but are easily overlooked in the hectic aftermath of a crash. An automatic GPS location identifier retrieves street names, the camera and voice recorder help take down details and a data sheet organizes information from other drivers.

Now, the Downtown Committee is working to create a business directory mobile app that would allow users to search for businesses by category, geography and

Central New York has endured more than 11 feet of snow so far this season.

The local snowfall total approached 140 inches last weekend, and it appears that – before this winter’s over on March 21 – the Syracuse area will break the all-time Upstate NY of 199.4 inches which fell on Buffalo in 1976-77.

While most local folks consider this the snowiest winter ever, some recall 1992-93 as worse. The Syracuse seasonal snowfall record was set that year when 192.1 inches fell.

This year, there’s a good chance the area’s total snowfall will top 200 inches, more than 16.5 feet of frosty flakes.

Maybe the underwhelming response to Verizon Wireless’ iPhone launch means the release of mobile apps with local ties has gone unnoticed, too?

Last summer, the Farmshed CNY app put a free comprehensive directory of CNY’s organic, sustainable and directmarket farms at iPhone users’ fingertips, and even released an update to the app in November. Since then, daily deal giants Groupon and Living Social added the Syracuse area to their reach, giving locals with a penchant for discounts two more mobile apps worth downloading.

In January, the Connective Corridor announced it would go mobile with a soon-to-be-released free iPhone app developed by a team of SU volunteers. The USE app, a play on “SyracUSE,” will feature four components, including a bus tracker, event listings, social networking tools, and “augmented reality,” (though we’re not really sure what that last one means). The bus tracker is set to debut this month and will tie into Centro’s GPS infrastructure to displays the buses moving along their routes in real time on the iPhone screen.

The New York State DOT also launched an app last month for iPhone, Blackberry and Android phones that provides users with real-time weather and traffic conditions. The 511NY app was part of an upgrade of the DOT’s web presence that also included a cell phone-friendly mobile website at 511ny.mobi. Both the mobile site and smartphone app allow users to create and save up to six traffic or transit trips for quick access.

personal favorites, and create a “to-do” list of downtown businesses to visit.

The app will be free to download and use, and there is no charge for businesses to be included in the directory. Submit your business information to Elle Stasz with Downtown Committee by Feb. 25 to be included; e-mail estasz@centerstateceo. com. The app is set to debut March 24.

Chili’s on at annual Thornden Park fundraiser Saturday

Ready your spoons: the annual Thornden Park Chili Bowl Festival will take place Saturday Feb. 19 from noon to 4 p.m. at the field house.

The chili bowl is the biggest fundraiser of the year for the Thornden Park Association, the group working to revitalize one of Syracuse’s most beloved and best-known parks. Proceeds from the event are used to restore and maintaining facilities, upgrade landscaping and provide programming like the Discovery Day Camp, exercise classes.

Lyn Simmer, a TPA member, said the

commercial kitchen where the Chili Bowl chilies are prepared was renovated with money raised through this and other TPA fundraisers.

Four types of chili will be available Saturday: beef and turkey, vegetarian and “Syracuse Chili,” a recipe that uses local ingredients including Gianelli sausage.

Enjoy a bowl for $3 or a sample plate of all four varieties for $6. Corn bread and other fixings will also be available.

“We cook 120 quarts of chili,” Simmer said. Her husband and TPA President Dan Sanders is the head chef, and he and his team of sous chefs (other TPA members) will begin cooking on Thursday, she added.

This year’s Chili Bowl is themed “Art in the Park” and will feature community members’ artwork inspired by the park.

Attendants will also be invited to submit a line inspired by the park, which will be

compiled into a poem by local poet Georgia Popoff, Simmer said.

Simmer created a coloring book featuring images from throughout the park that will be debuted at Saturday’s event as a way to educate kids about the park and the importance of preserving it, she said.

“It’s a great way to educate kids to appreciate the park,” Simmer said.

The coloring book features about a dozen images from the park, from iconic structures like the amphitheater to lesser known park gems like the Lily Pond and herb garden. The TPA has prepared 100 copies of the coloring book for Saturday’s event, but the book will be available as an ongoing fundraiser for the association throughout the year.

Crunch get shut out twice in a row in Norfolk Failing to score is getting to be a bad habit for the Syracuse Crunch.

For the third time in this American Hockey League season, the Crunch were shut out twice in a row this past weekend.

The Norfolk Admirals blanked the Syracuse skaters 3-0 Friday Feb. 11, and 4-0 on Saturday Feb. 12, at The Scope arena, not far from Southern Virginia’s Great Dismal Swamp.

Admirals back-up goalie Mike Smith turned away all 29 shots the Crunch sent his way on Friday, before Syracuse fruitlessly flung 19 pucks at Norfolk’s number-one netminder Dustin Tokarski on Saturday.

The last time Norfolk had notched back-toback shutouts was March 29-30, 2003.

As his team’s offense faded in front of him, Crunch goalie J.P. Levasseur stopped 32 of 35 shots on Friday and 24 of 28 on Saturday.

Syracuse has now been shut out nine times this season.

On Friday, the Crunch went 0-for-6 on the power play after going 6-for-11 over its previous two games. On Saturday, Syracuse was out-shot 12-3 in the first period, and failed to cash in on any of its three power play opportunities over the course of the game.

Crunch players used their fists rather than their sticks to work out their frustrations. Six fighting majors were handed out Saturday, three to the Crunch (Mat Clark, Aaron Voros and Matt Kennedy) and three to the Admirals (Pierre-Cedric Labrie, Radko Gudas and Levi Nelson).

But when it comes to putting pucks in the opposition net, the Crunch remain punchless. Syracuse has scored just 123 goals this season. In the entire 30-team AHL, only the cellar-dwelling Adirondack Phantoms have scored fewer goals, 119.

The Crunch travel to Glens Falls on Wednesday, Feb. 16, to meet the Phantoms at 7 p.m., before returning home Friday.

Flamboyant goalie Ray “Razor” Emery was scheduled to begin practicing with the

Once in the nation’s top five, the Syracuse men’s basketball team suddenly can’t find any consistency, home or away.

When no. 11 Georgetown, riding a sixgame win streak, went to the Carrier Dome last Wednesday night, it was undaunted by the Carrier Dome crowd of 27,154 very vocal fans. As projected, it was largely a defensive battle, but the Hoyas, by finishing fast, beat SU 64-56.

The contest featured nine ties and six lead changes – but down the stretch, run the Hoyas conquered the Orange with a 12-2 run.

Georgetown limited SU’s scoring to just three points in the last seven minutes and, in turn, got head coach John Thompson III his first win in the Dome in six tries.

For the Hoyas, Austin Freeman scored 14 points and four other Georgetown players were in double figures. Hollis Thompson added 11 points and was three-for-three beyond the 3-point arc as Julian Vaughn delivered 12 points.

The Hoyas trailed late, but rallied past the Orange thanks to Freeman’s game tying 3 and two uncontested fast break scores from Jason Clark. What severely hurt SU, said Kris Joseph, were defensive breakdowns late in the game. “They (Georgetown) made their shots at

the end and we had some miscues and they capitalized,� said Joseph, who led Syracuse with 14 points. “We did not get back on defense, and we can get a lot better on offense.�

SU, no. 12 at the time, appeared to be in good shape rebounding after a four-game skid by winning two straight times over Connecticut and South Florida. However, the Orange’s inconsistent offense continued to be an area of concern.

It’s hard to win games when the Orange shoot 39.5 percent from the perimeter and four of 16 from 3-point range. And The Hoyas, physically smaller than the Orange, got more rebounds, 34-28. and deserves credit for being an unselfish team, posting 20 total assists and shooting 24 of 53 (45.3 percent) from the floor. “We missed some opportunities in the second the half,� said SU head coach Jim Boeheim. “We got around the basket, but we did not do anything on offense. We have to make some shots. Soon or later, that catches up to you.�

It was C.J. Fair’s career-best performance, scoring 12 points while teammate Brandon Triche added 11 points, most of in the first 20 minutes. The offense was dormant in both halves, but especially at the end. Fair scored Syracuse’s only field goal in the concluding seven minutes.

Help raise money for the St. Patrick’s Day Parade while getting a head start on your St. Patty’s celebrations!

Tipperary Hill will raise a ruckus Friday Feb. 18 with the “Support the St. Patrick’s Day Parade� fundraiser, from 7 p.m. to midnight at St. Patrick’s School, at the corner of North Lowell and Schuyler Streets.

The event is open to ages 21 and older, and will feature raffles, door prizes and live music by Mere Mortals from 8 to 11 p.m.

Tickets are only $10, but you can continue to make financial contributions to the parade at the beer and wine cash bar.

All proceeds from the event will go toward the parade, set for noon on Saturday March 12. The event is sponsored by Tipp Hill pub owners and tickets are available at several neighborhood watering holes, visit theea glecny.com for the complete list.

The Syracuse St. Patrick’s Day Parade Committee announced in January that the grand marshal for the 2011 parade would be Syracuse Police Capt. Richard Walsh. The committee is also looking for volunteers to serve as marshals for this year’s event. For more information about the parade and how to volunteer, visit visit syracusestpatricksparade.org.

Then Jackson was called for a controversial foul in trying to steal the ball and had to leave the game with four fouls at the 11:30 mark.

For a while, SU overcame Jackson’s absence as Bye Moussa Keita and Fair combined to bail out the Orange and even the score at 46.

The game flipped back and forth, but when Jackson returned with 4:03 left he hardly was a factor, unable to be as aggressive as normal. Georgetown used a 9-2 run in a span of less than two minutes, and SU missed its last seven shots to drop its third straight game at home.

That bad feeling carried over deep into Saturday’s game at Louisville, where the Orange trailed by as much as 20 points. Though it surged late, SU lost again, 73-69, to fall to 7-6 in Big East play.

Suddenly, the Orange’s homestand this week against West Virginia and Rutgers gained more urgency as, at the least, SU didn’t want to have any uncertainty about gaining an NCAA Tournament berth.

Viewpoints Our view

By the ‘book

Is anyone else out there amazed by just how well the Syracuse Police Department has put Facebook to work?

We’ll be honest: when the department launched its own Facebook page in January, we expected a few dry status updates a month and some positive PR here and there, at most.

But we’ve seen so much more from the department, we can’t help but say so. Like links to news stories, sections for submitting anonymous tips and checking active warrants (they link users to the department’s website at syracusepolice.org), photos from awards ceremonies and the department throughout the years, event updates, and links to related sites, like the NY sex offender registry.

We even learned, thanks to the SPD Facebook presence, that the department offers a free personal property registry on their site to log descriptions, serial numbers and photos of your valuables in case they are stolen or destroyed. Did you know that service was available to you through the SPD website?

We don’t think we’re glorifying this decision by the police when we say that the Facebook page is tangible evidence that the department is making good on its promise to reach out to the community and form a relationship with Syracuse residents that has been damaged for too long.

People join and spend hours digging through sites like Facebook because they help us connect with other people. No, it’s not the same as a one-on-one conversation over a cup of coffee, but it is a valuable connection just the same, and one that the younger generation appreciates and puts an incredible amount of stock into.

Giving the department a personality that we can all access and relate to is invaluable, particularly now, when a sense of unity is something for which we all seem to be grasping.

Truth be told, our favorite update so far has been the photo of Det. Pete Payne clearing about two feet of snow off his car with a push broom.

This is how you connect with the community. Well done, SPD. We appreciate the effort, and it’s clear we are not alone.

Coping with Syracuse snow One thing about getting older is that you begin to recall episodes of life that were particularly challenging. And extremes of the weather can offer you those life experiences that are seared into your brain.

Who can forget the Labor Day Storm, the Blizzard of ’66 or any period when we’ve received over a foot of snow within a short period of time?

For people living in Syracuse, the ability to remove snow became one of the things we hung our hat on. We are the snowiest city with a population of our size (which is about 147,000 people and falling).

Remember the time when the streets were not a worry when planning an event?

It snowed, but “so what, get your boots on and let’s go!”

But today with Doppler, that ground hog, the Internet and other weather prognosticators we know what’s coming and most of the time how much.

When it snowed in the past there would be a virtual army of plows employed by the city, with its force of large vehicles and

Ken Jackson

dozens of independent small trucks to handle many of our tiny side streets.

In recent years when snow hits Syracuse the coverage is as even as the Thornden Park landscape.

Streets that I’ve never seen snow-covered are now thick with snow, at times 6 inches or more, while one street over is as clean as a driveway after a good shoveling.

The first idea is to cast blame on the plow drivers, but you really can’t blame them. How many bodies do we have working today compared to the days when the streets were universally scraped clean? The next in line to blame are those who set up the schedule for snow removal, but you can’t blame them because they’re working with reduced staff.

So I propose the following, since the city is in dire straits financially and we all have to pitch in to help. I’ve developed a list of 10 things you can do to cope with our Syracuse snowfall and snow-related issues (perceived or real):

Urban

CNY

Perspective

Top 10 Things you can do to cope with Syracuse Snow 10. Pour some whisky in your coffee and look out the window.

9. Use your own shovel and while removing snow proceed to the middle of your street.

8. Pretend it’s not there (easy after following number 10).

7. Keep up-to-date on the drama surrounding the Citizen Review Board 6. Follow the news about the selection of the next councilor-at-large 5. Don’t worry. There are no jobs in the city so there’s no place to go anyway 4. Pretend this is the Winter Olympic Village!

3. Go to Clinton Square and put your bare feet in the fountain now!

2. Watch the cancellations scroll on the television news 1. Stand in line at Price Chopper surrounded by hordes of shoppers buying milk.

Spring is just around the corner!

Buerkle prospects of survival were always a bit shaky: not only did she win her race against Dan Maffei by a slim margin, she is reportedly not well liked in moderate Republican circles, mainly for her hard-line, tea party espousing methods. Not to mention a recent town hall meeting, when she appeared confused about how much money her own taxpayer-funded health care was costing the taxpayers. Rest easy for now, congresswoman.

The band plays tunes such as “Indiana.” “Bill Bailey” and “Blues My Naughty Sweetie Gives to Me.” “I just told the boys that I wasn’t a good chart reader, so let’s learn the melody and then improvise around the tune and provide the spontaneous harmonies,” the bandleader said.

Dovi’s outfit also tackles a few novelty numbers and rhythm & blues tunes. “Most of our gigs have been public performances, but we’ve done weddings and birthday parties too where people make special requests,” Dovi

said. “So we’ve played tunes like ‘The Stripper,’ ‘The Entertainer,’ an R&B tune called ‘Shake That Thing’ and a swing tune, ‘The Jersey Bounce.’”

On Sunday in Camillus the JazzHappensBand hopes to get the dance floor hopping.

“The most recent tune we play may be 60 years old,” Dovi said. “The beat is typically a four beat and the faster tunes lend themselves very well for those who swing dance.”

When the JazzHappensBand returns “(Back Home Again) in Indiana,” the musicians deftly transform a warm homecoming into a hot happening.

First, trumpeter Jeff Dovi plays a mournfully slow version of the melody before the entire combo kicks in to swing it and wing it. Suddenly, they stop… and Dovi blows the slow head again to truly take it home.

No wonder their crowds clap like crazy!

Global food prices are rising, but when will they hit home?

By Ami Olson editor@theeaglecny.com The United Nations Food Price Index showed an increase for the seventh consecutive month in January, with global prices for food commodities hitting their highest mark since the UN began backtracking prices in 1990.

The FPI, which measures monthly changes in international prices of a basket of five food commodities (meat, dairy, cereals, oils and fats, and sugars), rose to an alarming 231 points to start off the new year.

By contrast, the average FPI just 10 years ago, in 2001, was 93 points.

“The federal government is predicting that average food prices will increase up to 3 percent this year, but the cost of some things have already begun moving much higher,” said Tops Friendly Markets representative Katie McKenna. “Beef was up 6.2 percent at the end of last year compared with a year ago. Pork has jumped 12.9 percent.”

Adding to the cost of the food itself are rising fuel costs, which account for increases in shipping and packaging costs, said Evelyn Carter, director of consumer affairs for Wegmans Food Markets.

But making sense of global numbers in terms of baskets of food raises one concern for consumers: how long before those prices become unrealistic for the average household?

Insulated for now

For the time being, most grocery retailers can keep from passing those increases on to customers.

Carter said Wegmans has been able to absorb most of the increases.

McKenna said Tops has also managed to offset most costs, especially be negotiating special deals and discounts to customers.

But where’s the breaking point?

“When you hear that it’s a worldwide food crisis, that’s really scary,” said Paul Nojaim, co-owner of Nojaim Brothers Market at 307 Gifford St. He said he’s been reading reports for years of rising costs, though the most devastating shifts haven’t hit his shelves, yet. And some experts argue that grocers won’t ever experience overwhelming price increases, though the steady rise is undeniable.

Either way, food retailers don’t have many options for how to handle the increase.

“It’s a commodity. And perishables are perishables. There’s not a heck of a lot you can do,” Nojaim said. “We’re kind of still waiting for it, I guess.”

Of more immediate concern is the impact unusual weather events are having on produce prices.

Nojaim said freezing temperatures on the west coast have driven up produce prices and his customers have noticed.

Jamie Kluk, head grocery clerk for Syracuse Real Food Co-op, at 618 Kensington Road, said he’s noticed produce prices on the rise in other grocery stores and while the Co-op hasn’t experienced the shift yet, he expected it to be felt first in citrus fruits.

Green Hills Farms market owner Heather Hawkins, above, talks with SyracuseFirst founder Chris Fowler at a local food conference last weekend. Below, the Syracuse Real Food Co-op “Basics” program offers regional and local organic food at 25 percent below suggested retail price. food and fuel costs and the distance foods are transported to reach consumers highlights one of the principles of the “buy local” movement gaining momentum across the country.

“Now, more than ever, consumers want to know that the food they buy is grown and produced locally, and it’s important that we have those products in our store,” said McKenna.

“Buying local cuts down the distance it takes food to travel to our stores making it more cost effective and we’re able to pass the savings to our consumer.”

Chris Fowler, founder of the buy- and live-local campaign SyracuseFirst, said he didn’t expect rising food prices to “have a tremendous effect” on the number of people taking the pledge to buy more locally in the Syracuse area.

“Most people doing it are doing it for personal or philosophical reasons,” Fowler said.

Amanda Gormley, marketing manager at the Co-op, said the expectation that locally or regionally produced foods are typically more expensive may help offset the discomfort of rising costs, for those who are already buying local.

But that stereotype is being tested, Gormley pointed out.

The Basics Program launched last year by the Co-op offers staples like milk, meat, bread and fresh produce at about 25 percent below the suggested retail price, Gormley said.

Making locally and regionally produced organic foods more affordable may not help drive down the costs of the FPI, but it can make a significant difference in an individual’s grocery bill.

Around Town MPH senior rises to Olympic level gymnast

student, who maintains a high honor roll status, also enjoys challenging Model UN-style debates at school.

When asked what advice he would give to rising gymnasts like himself, Damron acknowledged the sweat, blood and tears that come with being a committed athlete. For instance, Luttinger recalled Damron having a painful knee condition that kept him from tumbling and vaulting for several years.

“Neil had to tumble and vault on a limited basis until it went away, when he was about [age] 14,” Luttinger said. “His persistence and smart training kept him on par with other athletes and now he is one of the best tumblers and vaulters in the state and region.”

“Long-term goals have always gotten me through the obstacles,” Damron said.“Delayed gratification is something you have to get used to in gymnastics.”

Come fall, Damron hopes to go to one of five universities that which he has applied.

At age 7, Neil Damron began his athletic path toward becoming an Olympic-level gymnast.

He was exposed to the sport at a friend’s birthday party and said he found the experience to be fun, positive and a good outlet for all his energy.

“I remember when Neil started,” said his coach Jim Luttinger, of CNY Gymnastics Center in Shoppingtown Mall. “He’s always had a love for the sport.”

The Manlius Pebble Hill senior recently competed in his last meet, the Polar Bear Invitational Gymnastics Tournament, held annually at his home gym. He took first place in the all around as well as in four out of six events (floor exercises, rings, vault and high bar). He placed second in the pommel horse and parallel bars.

Damron, who’s competed multiple times at state, regional and national levels, is a Level 10 gymnast, but says he hasn’t given the Olympics much thought.

“I have always been focused on my immediate future when it comes to gymnastics,” Damron said. “I want to be the best I can be, and where ever that takes me will make me happy.”

As he preps for college, Damron still trains at CNY and teaches beginning gymnasts in his spare time.

Luttinger said he’s a great role model to the younger kids because he’s learned to use his time wisely, balancing school, his personal life and this “very demanding, time-consuming sport.”

“Neil is a hard workSubmitted photo ing, well mannered, scholar athlete,” said Neil Damron is a Level 10, or Olympic level gymnast nearest graduation Luttinger, noting his at Manlius Pebble Hill.

Will he continue his love of gymnastics? That depends, he said, on where he goes and what he feels is right for him. In the meantime, however, his advice to rising gymnasts is the same he practices himself: Set goals and put your all into achieving them.

“I think you will always benefit [from] this approach,” he said. “Even if you don’t achieve what you were originally aiming for.”

SUNY-ESF professor presents on willow shrub wastebed cap SUNY-ESF professor Tim Volk presented on Shrub Willows as a potential covering for wastebeds 9 through 15 during the Onondaga Lake Citizen Participation combined meeting at Geddes Town Hall Tuesday Feb. 8.

But first, Kenneth Lynch, with the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation, gave an overview of the December settlement ordering Honeywell to close the wastebeds.

“The order does address closure of all those sites, not to be confused with one through eight that run along the lakeshore itself, those are being done under a separate agreement with Honeywell,” Lynch said.

Under the December order, Honeywell must cap the 600-plus acres of wastebeds in Camillus and Geddes. It allows for an alternative “green” willow capping to be used, and requires Honeywell to investigate offsite impacts in Nine Mile Creek and surrounding areas.

Lynch answered the question of how this order meshes with the construction of the Sediment Consolidation Area on wastebed 13 and with the existing operation of the Camillus C&D Landfill on waste bed 15.

“Ideally, the town of Camillus will proceed with completing their requirements in the closure of wastebed 15 … If for whatever reason that doesn’t happen, Honeywell’s required to close wastebed 15 under this order,” Lynch said.

He said the part of wastebed 13 allotted for the SCA would be properly closed once the SCA is complete, though further coordination will be required to cap the rest of the wastebed.

The settlement ordered the process to begin by early 2011.

“You said early 2011, so that’s today, so

17

what do you really mean by your timeframe?” asked Dereth Glance, chair of the Onondaga Lake Bottom Community Participation Working Group.

“The order calls for a memorandum of understanding between the DEC and Honeywell on how the [Environmental Benefit Projects] will be implemented, and that is just about done,” Lynch responded. He said the memorandum would lay out the public process for developing EBPs, and that public meetings would likely commence in early spring.

Volk followed by presenting ESF’s study of willow shrubs as a wastebed covering, which took place over the last six years and involved planting more than 16 acres of will shrubs on wastebed 13.

“There’s actually been an [alternative cap] program that the EPA has been running since the early 1990s … .there’s now quite a few [willow shrub caps], a couple hundred or so that have been done and implemented around the country, and so there’s more and more learning and lessons that have been gained from that work over the last number of years,” Volk said.

“The primary goal still is protection of human health and the environment,” he added, “but also thinking about a way to look at these systems and minimize the broader impact.”

Shrub willows soak up large amounts of ground surface water, have a long growing season, exhibit rapid growth and provide a large and deep leaf canopy, Volk said. The harvesting of them provides potential for green energy, and the shrubs adapt well to their surrounding environment.

The process would require bringing in nutrients to mix with the waste material. Part of the study involved finding the height for mixing, in order to hold water in the waste beds.

“It’s like a sponge, it sort of holds that dormant season water, then it’s pumped out during the growing season when the plants are active,” Volk said. The willow shrub cap is referred to as an evapotranspiration cover, as opposed to traditional, because it interacts with its environment— soaking up water and turning into oxygen through respiration. Volk said using willow shrubs, considering their many potential end uses when harvested, would be “carbon neutral or better.”

Lynch explained that the order does not require any specific type of closure.

“The order also allows if Honeywell decided, well because there’s no business opContinues on next page.

portunity in capping with willows, I want to do it in a more traditional form, they can propose that,” Lynch said. “Or they can propose a smaller portion of willow closure so they can tailor the closure to whatever the business opportunity may be.”

Camillus Town Councilor David Philippone said he would like to see on-site testing of a more traditional covering, and for the public to be presented with a side-by-side comparison of absorption rates for a traditional cap versus a willow shrub cap.

“Especially during the dormancy period [between January and April] … when they don’t have their leaves,” he said.

“It sounds to me like there’s going to be quite a bit of trucking involved to get the soil ready to sustain this plant,” he added, “so have you compared the trucking involved for this solution versus [a traditional membrane cap] that would be there with, we presume, very good absorption?”

Philippone showed concern that the recreational opportunities would seem “extremely limited” with a willow shrub cap.

“If you take down a path, well, it’s not preventing percolation,” he said.

Mary Jane Peachey, with the DEC, said

comparisons of absorption rates had been done, just not locally.

“We’ve looked at it from a desktop evaluation,” she said.

Guest column

Happy day in the Emerald City “Let’s have lunch,” the email said, and so we made the decision for the three of us to meet at Asti’s on North Salina Street at 12:45 p.m. on the day of the big no-snow storm.

There was an open parking spot less than a block away from the restaurant.

For me, that was a good omen, which tells you a lot about my assessment of omens.

Reality set in. I did have a parking space, but now I had to pay to park… something I call the Syracuse Surcharge. Craning my neck before I ventured out into the busy traffic, I noted that the kiosk, or whatever it is called that eats your money in return for a piece of paper that specifies your

allotted parking time, was one car length away. OK, I thought, that’s not bad. Not bad, until I realized there was no way for me to get onto the sidewalk from where I stood. The snow banks were at least two feet high, far too difficult for someone of my vintage to attempt a climb. I started to walk in the street through the snowmelt and slush, looking for an opening through the sidewalk glaciers. I didn’t find one until I had passed five cars. By then the left side of my body was wet with slushy gifts from passing vehicles.

After navigating to the sidewalk, I turned north to get to the kiosk and discovered a long expanse of unshoveled sidewalk in front of a vacant building. It was like walking through Alaska without a press agent. Once past the foot deep tundra, the sidewalk was clear and someone had graciously shoveled a path through the mounds of snow to the kiosk. I purchased an hour and a half of parking time, then retraced my steps through the snow and slush, walking in the street, against the traffic, allowing the right side of my body to get its portion of slush, etc. But more joy was to come! I had to stand between my car and the car in front of my car until the long line of traffic passed so that I could open my door to place the paper on

Burnet Avenue

my dashboard. By now the icy water had seeped into my boots. Back down North Salina, cars whizzing by and splashing still more water and slush, I headed for the opening in the snow, this time finally headed toward the restaurant.

The food was superb… the absolute best Utica Greens… the company even more so. We chatted, caught each other up to date on family, work and so forth, even joined in a celebratory birthday song for a guy at the next table. I left with the glow of the lunch still resonating, thinking that even the dangerous trek back to my vehicle wouldn’t bring me down. I climbed into the car, buckled my seat belt, adjusted the mirror, started the engine and turned on the wipers. Then I saw the parking ticket.

Oh, woe is me! On a day when schools and businesses were closed, the city’s parking patrol was out in force, making all of us want to drive downtown, find a parking space, risk our lives to pay for parking, ruin our clothing and then, the crowning fillip to the day… a parking ticket. I wonder if this is part of the Convention and Visitors’ Bureau marketing plan?
