Dangerous Intersections By Max Borsuk The Concord Town Board discussed various dangerous intersections throughout the town and what they hope can get done to make drivers safer at their meeting Aug. 11. Highway Superintendent Dennis Dains talked about a recent accident at the intersection of Genesee Road and Route 16 in Sardinia and said something needs to be done at that intersection and others in the area, including Genesee and Springville Boston roads, and Genesee Road and Route 240. “There have been numerous accidents, some pretty severe,” said Dains. “It’s probably going to take an act of Congress to put lights there, like we requested at Boston Springville Road and Route 240. It’s getting bad … We need the state and the town governments to take a hard look, whether it’s alternating flashing red and four-way stop or an alternating flashing red and yellow. Something needs to be done.” Dains also talked about a joint meeting between
the Springville Fire Department, East Concord Fire Department and Mercy EMS in regards to the EMS service the town has received since the inception of Mercy EMS. Since the emergency certificate of need was granted to the town, Mercy EMS has two fullstaff, 24-hour ALS paramedics in service and a fly car on a dedicated 12-hour shift with the option of a second fly car available and a modular unit for bariatric patients. In the future, Dains said that they are working with Mercy EMS and the other fire departments to get more transports for the volunteers. In other news the board: - Approved to set new pay for court clerk Adam Krolikowski. - Extended the contract between the town and Healthy Community Alliance from Oct. 1 until Dec. 31, 2016 at a cost not to exceed $5,400. The next Concord Town Board meeting will be held on Sept. 8 at 7 p.m. at the Concord Town Hall, located at 86 Franklin St.

Gallivan urges municipalities to apply for electronic recycling grants Senator Patrick M. Gallivan is encouraging local municipalities to apply for grants from the Environmental Protection Fund to assist with unexpected costs associated with the collection and recycling of electronic waste. New York residents are required to recycle unwanted electronic items, such as televisions, computers, printers and other small electronic equipment, in an environmentally responsible manner. “Keeping potential hazardous electronic waste out of our landfills is important, but collecting and
recycling the material is a challenge for many communities,” Gallivan said. “These funds will help reduce the burden on local governments and property taxpayers.” As of January 1, 2015, all New York consumers must recycle electronic waste. The law has kept millions of pounds of electronic waste from landfills, but the amount of waste generated continues to grow, adding to the complexities of the collection process. “My office sponsors free electronic recycling events several times a year and
the response has been tremendous,” Gallivan said. “These funds will help implement better collection and recycling systems locally and across the state.” The $3 million grant program is being administered through the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation’s Household Hazardous Waste Assistance Program. Municipalities are eligible for reimbursement of up to 50 percent of eligible expenses for collection and recycling of e-waste. The DEC will accept applications from October 3 to October 31.
Over $50 million to provide in-home services for seniors Funding Supports Seniors to Remain Independent; Reduces Reliance on Medicaid
New NYS Outdoor Guidebooks provide advice By Forrest Fisher The New York State big game archery season begins in about six weeks and it is hard to believe that time is almost here. Rules and regulations changes are still annual topics for review. The 2016 New York State legislative session came to a close in July with very little legislation of concern for sportsmen reaching the floor of both houses of the legislature for an actual vote. The following bills did pass both houses and now await action by the Governor: - Big game hunters required to display fluorescent orange overdress can now choose fluorescent pink instead. Intended to provide an incentive to women hunters, testing revealed that not only does the human eye pick up pink more distinctly than orange, but that it is also less noticeable to deer. - Rifle for big game was made permanent in Livingston County and was extended for two more years in Albany County and the deer season for longbow hunters in Suffolk
County was extended from its current end of December 31 until Mar 31, which allows traditional archery big game hunting all winter. - Exempts regular folding knives from the definition of “gravity knife.” According to big game chairman, Rich Davenport, “This last one may not seem to be a major item but some police agencies, particularly the New York City Police Department, consider anything that can be opened with one hand to be a prohibited weapon, for which NYPD alone has made 60,000 arrests in the ten years between 2003 and 2013. The definition they use includes your 2 1/2 inch folding pocket knife that can easily be opened with a snap of the wrist after it has been used for a while.” There were other bills concerning major legislative interests for sportsmen that were not acted upon by either house, including the NYS universal age of 12 for hunting with firearms; enhanced crossbow hunting opportunities; authorize cable restraints for coyote trapping; relief from
SAFE Act provisions; enhanced and protected ATV and snowmobile access for hunting, fishing and trapping. Another bill to exempt ATVs used exclusively on the owner’s property from registration requirements passed the Senate only. In the meantime, the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation came out with the 2016-2017 Hunting and Trapping Guidebook and the 2016-2017 Freshwater Fishing Guidebook with new rules, changes, tips and advertisements. The colorful printed format is handsome and easy to read. Still some errors though. The regular bow and muzzleloader season map for deer show WMU 9A, 9F and several other counties show “Antlerless Only.” Not true, this requirement was changed to regular hunting for both, bucks and does. Overall, both of the new Official 2016-2017 Guidebooks do a good job providing useful information for hunters, trappers and anglers. Visit www.dec. ny.gov for a free copy.
More than $50 million has been awarded to the state’s 59 county-based Area Agencies on Aging to help New York’s seniors remain in their homes and communities of choice. The funding, which is made available through the Expanded In-Home Services for the Elderly Program, will help maximize independence and prevent advanced and more expensive levels of care for seniors – the cost of which is often shouldered by Medicaid. “This funding will help more New York seniors stay in their homes, and live with independence and dignity,” Governor Andrew Cuomo said.“By partnering with local governments statewide, we will provide services to support these efforts and help improve the overall quality of life for seniors in every corner of the state.” The in-home services program is a case-managed community-based long-term care initiative designed to serve functionally impaired older people who are lower income but not yet Medicaid eligible, and who need assistance to remain safely in the community with an acceptable quality of life. The program is a partnership between the state and the counties; the $50.1 million state commitment will generate an additional $16 million in funding from the counties, plus an additional $1.8 million in direct contributions from
program participants. Nearly 70,000 New York seniors will benefit from the program, with $5,570,365 meant for those living in Western New York. The program provides non-medical services and supports for seniors who need help with basic daily activities, or require assistance with shopping, cooking, or paying bills. All enrollees receive care coordination, and when appropriate, could also receive additional supports, including support for caregivers, which are intended to help older adults remain safely in the community. To be eligible for the program, individuals must be at least 60 years old, cannot be eligible to receive similar services under other government programs, such as Medicaid, and are able to reside safely in the community. The program does not require that there be medical need as documented by a physician statement or include income or resources as eligibility criteria, except that a client cannot be on or eligible for Medicaid. Chair of Senate Standing Committee on Aging, Senator Sue Serino said, “Our localities directly benefit when our seniors are empowered to age in place, at home in the communities that they have spent their lives building. With a senior population that is only growing, we have an express responsibility to help older New Yorkers maintain their indepen-
dence and prevent costly premature nursing home placement. Investing in this critical program will help counties across the state make that a reality by providing invaluable support to their aging community members and their families.” Chair of the New York State Assembly Aging Committee, Assemblyman Steven Cymbrowitz said, “There are more than 3.7 million older adults living in New York State, and the population is growing. This initiative provides the type of support services that many of us take for granted. Most older adults do not need the level of skilled care provided in institutional settings such as nursing homes. The program prevents premature nursing home placement and helps older New Yorkers maintain their independence.” Acting Director of the New York State Office for the Aging Greg Olsen said,“I applaud Governor Cuomo’s leadership in prioritizing the program. The program enables tens of thousands of older New Yorkers to maintain their independence by providing critical services in their homes. This program saves the state money by reducing reliance on Medicaid, supports the millions of spouses and families who provide daily support to their loved ones and delivers cost-effective services where older New Yorker’s want it, in their homes and communities.”

After some warm up activities, the group presented their version of Shakespeare’s comedy “Twelfth Night.”
Thursday, August 18, 2016
The crowd, in attendance for Shake on the Lake’s performance of “Twelfth Night,” was treated to a double feature as a group of young thespians performed a short performance of “Romeo and Juliet,” Thursday night.
Rain put a damper on play, but didn’t stop the laughs Springville Center of the Arts hosts Shake on the Lake By Barb Drajem The Springville Center
for the Arts hosted one of twelve productions of
Shake on the Lake at the Springville Theater on Buffalo Street last Thursday, Aug. 11. The production was originally slated to be performed outdoors at SGI park but was moved indoors due to rain. SOTL’s members refer to the group as the “tiny theater festival that could,” which is very evident by their energy on
stage. According to the professional troupe’s playbill handed out at performances, SOTL’s mission is “to entertain and engage the community through the theatrical arts and inspire audiences to envision new creative placemaking opportunities in their communities. In doing so, we seek to serve the community by mount-
ing professional theater productions, touring our productions to rural parts of the state…” All twelve of SOTL’s performances of Shakespeare’s “Twelfth Night” have taken place in rural communities: Geneseo, Dansville, Letchworth, Darien Lake, Kent, Arcade, Attica, Silver Lake, and Springville.
Since the performance was moved from an outdoor venue to one inside the house was packed and chairs had to be placed in strategic places to accommodate everyone who wanted to see the performance. The 80-minute production included many moments of interaction with the audience.

Waste Management Sponsors Open House The Waste Management Landfill Site in Chaffee
hosted a picnic for residents and guests on Friday, Aug. 5. as a way to thank residents for their patronage throughout the year. The company
provided an evening of food, gifts, and tours of the facility. Attendees also had a chance to meet representatives from organizations
Chris Chapman, operations manager, and Mike Mahar, senior district manager, the newest members of the Waste Management team, were at the Open House hosted by the company on Aug. 5.
Bus tours were given during the Open House at the Waste Management Landfill Site in Chaffee, which showed continued work on cell #1 of the landfill.
that are sponsored by Waste Management. The organizations present with booths this year included Earth Spirit, Guiding Eyes for the Blind, Owl Facts and Foxwood Wildlife Rescue. Residents also had a chance to meet two newly promoted figures at the Chaffee site. Mike Mahar has been a Senior District Manager and District Manager for the company for more than 10 years. He has been overseeing the Chaffee Operation since Tom Lewis’ promotion and acts as head for two local transfer stations as well as the Model City Hazardous Waste Facility in Niagara County. “I thought it was important to have an Open House this year; it gave me an opportunity to meet the folks in the community,” he said. Chris Chapman, a long and varied history with Waste Management and the Chafee facility, with over 26 years invested in the company, has taken over the position of Operations Manager. Chapman has worked as maintenance department supervisor, a heavy equipment operator, and a gas systems specialist and manager. He also happens to be a resident of Sardinia. “Chris has such knowledge of so many aspects of the site; and the fact that he’s a local guy also brings the perspective of the community,” Mahar said. Tours of the facility consisted of a trip past the power plant, where methane gas from the landfill is converted to electricity using eight Caterpillar 1148 horsepower engines. The renewable energy that is produced at Waste Management Chaffee Power Plant is around 6.4 megawatts an hour, which is enough for 5-6,000 homes. Approximately two – three percent of the electricity is

Research animals to be offered for adoption in New York Animals used for research purposes by higher education institutions will be put up for adoption through humane societies and rescue organizations
Legislation has been signed requiring cats and dogs used for research by higher education institutions be offered for adoption through private placement or shelter organizations. “This is a humane law that, for these animals, provides the opportunity for a new lease on life,” Governor Andrew Cuomo said. “Dogs and cats are like members of the family for many New Yorkers and this action will allow for more four-legged friends to be adopted into a caring home.” The bill (S.98-A/A.8261A) would require the animals be deemed suitable for adoption by the attending veterinarian at the research facility. Once the research involving these dogs and cats is completed, academic institutions would then make them available to local shelters, animal rescue centers and humane societies, in order to be adopted. Numerous animals in New York are currently suitable for adoption at research institutions, yet because of barriers in the placement process, animals may instead be euthanized. Shelter organizations have expressed great interest in adopting these animals due to their status. This new legislation will save the lives of countless cats and dogs by placing them with authorized animal protective associations, which will manage
their care and ensure their wellbeing throughout the adoption process. This legislation will also permit research facilities and adoption organizations to enter into a longterm adoption program to accept these cats and dogs on a rolling basis. Senator Phil Boyle said, “When I first introduced the Research Animal Retirement Act over two years ago, I hoped that we would see this day. I commend Governor Cuomo for signing into law this measure which will allow Research Animals in New York State to find loving homes after their testing lives. I urge all New Yorkers thinking about adopting a dog or cat to consider these beautiful research animals who have given us so much.” Assembly member Linda B. Rosenthal said, “Now that this bill has become law, research animals will finally have a chance at a second life. Research animals live their lives being poked and prodded by humans, purposefully made sick to keep us well, and they are deprived of the affection and human kindness that many dogs enjoy. After this long and often tortuous service, they are usually euthanized, ending a miserable existence. I want to thank Governor Cuomo for being a hero to our animals, and Senator Boyle, who was an amazing partner in seeing this legislation become law.”

Success for annual Alzheimer’s walk/run Event hosted by the Springville League for the Handicapped By Barb Drajem The enthusiasm and energy level around the Springville League for the Handicapped on the morning of Saturday, Aug. 6 was as bright as the neon orange shirts participants wore. Families and friends of the League and those touched by autism came out to take part in the Annual Run/Walk, which is hosted by the organization. The run/walk, which has been held for the last seven years, has helped get the word out about autism. But Dr. Gerry Gould, who organizes the event, says it serves an even bigger purpose. With an estimated 160 walkers registered for the event, along with 130 runner, Gould said approximately $17,000 was raised during the run/walk. Some walkers participated in the event in honor of a specific person they love that they know with autism. This was the case with supporters of Alex, a young boy with autism. Approximately 15 of Alex Brechbuehl’s family members and close friends have gathered each year to raise money for this cause, which has touched each one of them in a very special way. “This year will be Alex’s last year at the League,” his mom said. The group also wore orange shirts this year, but theirs were special as they included Alex’s name on the front. Another young girl with autism spent the morning taking the
walk with her grandmother. The friends and family members that freely gave their time on Saturday were happy to
do so as they are aware the funds for the event went to a cause near to their hearts and also helped to spread the word about the disor-
der. For more information call the Springville League for the Handicapped at 716-5929331.
