Dam breaches prompt official outrage

By DAVID HULSE

H

ONESDALE, PA — The Wayne County Commissioners on October 19 formalized the budget reduction plans they warned about earlier this month.

According to their statement, “…Wayne County may be forced to reduce and/ or interrupt some of the social services the county provides to our community’s families by the end of December… During the next eight weeks, the county and its Human Services Agency (HSA) will be planning for a staged and systematic approach to what may become a considerable reduction and/or shutdown of some services in the event the [state] budget impasse is not resolved…. ” The announcement at the same time emphasized that reduced services will not impact those receiving services covered by the Commonwealth’s Medical Assistance (MA) programs, for whom the state has promised continuing services.

“The county will begin announcements during the month of November of any services which may be delayed, reduced and/or curtailed during the month of December, 2015,” the statement continued, detailing problems that are likely to arise.

“The Commonwealth’s budget impasse has sorely strained the resources of our county and our local community resources as we have struggled to maintain uninterrupted services to local residents who are most vulnerable….

“If the Commonwealth does not pass a

budget on or about December 1, 2015, so that funds may begin to flow to the county, the HSA will be unable to continue to provide some services to Commonwealth funded programs greatly used by so many, with such positive effects for the entire community. Service interruption will have a considerable impact, as all funding has the goal of helping people to remain independent, contributing members of our community, and keeping them out of more restrictive alternatives with higher costs, such as emergency rooms, physical and mental health hospitals, other institutions, and even prisons.”

The Wayne statement called on the state to release state lottery funds, which have in past budget delays remained available to counties. “The county encourages interested parties to contact our governor and all state legislators to urge that (1) a budget compromise be reached; and (2) that, separate and distinct from the impasse negotiations, the lottery funds held and being accrued by the Commonwealth be authorized to be released to counties immediately.”

Bethel tax cap

By FRITZ MAYER

W

HITE LAKE, NY — At the Town of Bethel meeting on October 14, there was a public hearing about raising the local property tax above the tax cap imposed on municipalities (and school districts) by Albany and Gov. Andrew Cuomo. Under New York law, local governments can’t raise taxes more than 2% or the rate of inflation—whichever is lower—without passing a local law with a super-majority voting in favor.

Supervisor Dan Sturm explained that the tax cap for 2016 has been calculated and will be limited to an increase of 0.73% (in 2015 the limit was 1.56%). This lower figure, he said, is not adequate to fund the town’s business. But at the public hearing, several residents voiced dissatisfaction with overriding Cuomo’s tax cap.

Susan Brown Otto noted that tax increases are hard on people who live on fixed incomes such as Social Security, and those residents will see no increase in payments in 2016.

Judith Maidenbaum, owner of the Fat Lady Café, noted there were businesses that closed down this year because they were not able to afford the taxes. The solution she suggested, which has often been suggested at town meetings, was that the town gain additional revenue through a surcharge tacked onto the price of tickets sold at Bethel Woods.

Town attorney Rob McEwan said the town would not be able to do that unless legislation in Albany was passed by state lawmakers.

Sturm said it was not likely that lawmakers in Albany would pass such legislation, nor was it likely that Bethel Woods would pay such a fee voluntarily. Sturm noted that if the board needed to raise taxes, the increase would be less than 2%.

Councilmember Dawn Ryder said, “It was just a little unreasonable to not increase anything and have the possibility next year where we come to you saying, ‘we have no money, and we have to go 5% or 6%.’”

Sturm concurred with Ryder and added, “I disagree strongly with this tax cap, not because I want to spend money, but being under .73%—this governor has put the onus on town boards, as opposed to the New York State Legislature, which if they really wanted to help us they would do some meaningful tax reform such as [addressing] tax exempt properties.”

The board passed the override measure unanimously.

Offer on golf course property In a lenghty process, the town acquired two parcels collectively known as the former Smallwood Golf Course. About 124 acres of the property are now forever wild, thanks to a conservation easement, and are used as a town park called the Smallwood Forest Preserve. Another 20 acres of the property will become a sand-mining operation, saving taxpayers some $80,000 to $100,000 per year on sand used on roadways in winter once the mining operation is started.

A third portion of the property is called “the development parcel,” which the town is obligated to market to possible buyers; the property has been for sale since 2011. At the meeting, Sturm said they had received an offer of $105,000 for the 40-acre parcel. The buyer plans to build one or two homes on the property. The board voted to grant the supervisor and the town attorney authority to negotiate the deal.

Correction The beginning of Isaac Green Diebboll’s letter to the editor in last week’s issue should have read, “High water still a threat” (headline), and then, “Recent heavy rains may have come as a relief after several very dry months, but they also triggered the dread words ‘flood watch.’”

IN BRIEF

Disability Awareness Month

Sullivan native to fight doctorassisted suicide ALBANY, NY — J.J. Hanson, who grew up in the Town of Highland and served in the administrations of former governors Elliot Spitzer and David Patterson, is now spearheading the fight to prevent the legalization of doctor-assisted suicide in New York State.

Hanson is now president of the Patients Rights Action Fund, which opposes doctor-assisted suicide. According to an article in the New York Daily News, last year Hanson was diagnosed with brain cancer; it was the same disease that Brittany Maynard contracted. Maynard made headlines when she moved from California to Oregon to make use of that state’s Death with Dignity Act. She ended her life on November 1, 2014.

Hanson told the newspaper, “I saw it as a bad example for others who had this form of brain cancer.” He said doctors twice told him he was near the end of his life, but he has been able to manage the disease.

Earlier this month, California governor Jerry Brown signed into law that state’s End of Life Act, and California became the fifth state to legalize doctor-assisted suicide, joining Oregon, Washington, Vermont and Montana.

In signing the law, Brown wrote, “I do not know what I would do if I were dying in prolonged and excruciating pain. I am certain, however, that it would be a comfort to consider the options afforded by this bill.

And I wouldn’t deny that right to others.”

The debate over doctor-assisted suicide is expected to play out in New York State, as lawmakers earlier this year introduced a Death with Dignity measure.

Federal court upholds gun laws ALBANY, NY — A federal appeals court has upheld gun laws in Connecticut and New York that were passed in the wake of the Sandy Hook massacre, but also ruled that one element of the NY SAFE Act was unconstitutional.

The court issued the ruling on October 19, which said, “We hold that the core provisions of the New York and Connecticut laws prohibiting possession of semiautomatic assault weapons and large-capacity magazines do not violate the Second Amendment.”

Regarding the aspect of the SAFE Act that allowed only seven bullets to be loaded into a clip that could hold more, the court agreed with a previous court which ruled that did violate the Second Amendment, and the state has agreed not to enforce the limit.

HARRISBURG, PA — A resolution sponsored by Rep. Tom Murt urging employers to consider those with special needs has passed the Pennsylvania House of Representatives. House Resolution 453 designates October “National Disability Employment Awareness Month” in Pennsylvania.

This is part of a nationwide campaign that raises awareness about disability employment issues and honors the many contributions of America’s workers with disabilities.

“It’s clear that those with disabilities still face discrimination by employers, which limits access to skills training,” Murt said. “As Pennsylvanians, we must continue to promote inclusion in the workplace and to tear down the preconceptions that prevent those with disabilities from achieving the security and prosperity that come with stable jobs. We must actively foster a culture in which individuals are supported and accepted for who they are, and to never fear disclosing one’s disability for fear of discrimination.”

“Pennsylvania is at its strongest when we harness the talents and celebrate the distinct gifts of all our people,” Murt concluded.

Bill would raise smoking age in Pennsylvania HARRISBURG, PA — A bill recently introduced in the house would raise the legal age to purchase tobacco products in Pennsylvania to 21 from 18. State Rep. Vanessa Lowery Brown, who sponsored the legislation said, “Studies show that the vast majority of those who smoke daily began before the age of 19. Restricting access to tobacco products until age 21 should lower the smoking rate in the commonwealth.”

She said, “The age to purchase alcohol is 21. Tobacco has more long-term effects than alcohol in many people, so limiting the availability of tobacco should improve the health of our young adults. Reducing the number of smokers would provide many health benefits, such as reduced exposure to second-hand smoke for everyone, better fetal and neonatal health for our smallest people, and lower rates of diseases known to be related to smoking, such as heart disease, emphysema and cancer.”

Hawaii has a state-wide legal smoking age of 21 beginning January 1, 2016, and a number of communities throughout the country have raised the age as well.

Acclaimed children’s author Vera Williams passes

By FRITZ MAYER

N

ARROWSBURG, NY — Vera B. Williams, an acclaimed artist and author of books for children, passed away on October 16, as her work was being shown and celebrated at the Delaware Valley Arts Alliance in Narrowsburg.

Williams, who had a house in Narrowsburg, was often mentioned in the pages of The River Reporter (most recently in last week’s Currents feature), often as the recipient of a prestigious award. In 2013, “A Chair for My Mother,” perhaps Williams’ best known work was chosen as one of the 100 Greatest Children’s Books of the Last Century by the New York Public Library.

Williams was born in 1927 in the Bronx in a family that had a deep respect for the arts and politics. Her parents were immigrants, her father from Russia and her mother from Poland. She and her sis-

DEP has not responded to repeated TRR inquiries about the agency initiative.

Aside from the impact on the county’s property tax values, Smith said the state action is impacting the lives of people who retired in Wayne County and expected to spend that retirement in a lakeside community.

Several audience members supported his statement, noting that impacted lakes were in all cases principal water sources for Wayne County firefighters.

Noting the large number of Wayne County lakes and ponds, Smith concluded, “This is an epidemic across the state…. We’re in a situation where there are no checks and balances, and it’s going to cripple this county and Pennsylvania.”

Gina Ehrhardt, local representative for state Rep. Mike Peifer asked that any lake communities issuing concerns about the DEP program copy those statements to their state representatives.

A public hearing on the matter will be held at 6 p.m. on October 22 at the Forest City High School Auditorium in Forest City. Some of the people who live in the area are hoping to pack the meeting with people who will tell the DEP and the Pennsylvania Boat and Fishing Commission to figure out how to keep the lakes full and repair the dams.

Smart’ was inspired by memories of early childhood with her sister and mother during the temporary absence of their father, probably due to imprisonment.

Family history is unclear about this, but Williams has made it a fact of her characters’ lives as it may be for more than a few of her readers (though rarely written about).

“In a HarperCollins essay by Williams about the book, she wrote, ‘I’ve been close to the world of children all my life, as teacher, parent, grandparent as well as children’s author/illustrator. I feel how all children, not just the unlucky ones, face bewildering happenings and mysterious adult emotions. But like my characters, they are brave and smart! They take life into their small hands, intent on having the joy and hope and play of childhood no matter what.’”

The evening after she died, Vera B. Williams received a Lifetime Achievement Award from DVAA.

Sullivan West to vote on $3.3 million spending plan

By LAURIE RAMIE

L

AKE HUNTINGTON, NY — Voters in the Sullivan West Central School District will be asked to decide the fate of $3,308,419 worth of construction, repairs, and renovations in a referendum vote set for Tuesday, October 27.

A public hearing took place at the October 15 board meeting, attended by approximately 20 audience members.

Superintendent Dr. Nancy Hackett explained that $2,843,752 would come from the Capital Reserve Fund that district voters agreed to establish in 2008, supplemented by $464,667 in Excel Funds provided through the New York State Dormitory Authority.

Since funds for these restricted purposes are already allocated in the Capital Reserve account, approval of this appropriation would have no impact on the tax levy. A balance of $910,121 would remain in that reserve fund, which was authorized for a 10-year period.

The fund was previously tapped twice, first in October 2009 when the district spent $1.6 million to repair the slate roof at the historic Jeffersonville building, and then in October 2012 when District voters authorized $2.698 million for various repairs at both the elementary and high school campuses.

Dr. Hackett said that the current projects listed under a collective and sole “Proposition #1” derived from facility needs that were identified in the district’s five-year plan.

At the Sullivan West Elementary School in Jeffersonville, work would include: Construct one baseball field, one softball field and one soccer field, including site amenities; Re-construct the athletic track and improve site drainage at the field; Renovate interior spaces and acquire equipment for a Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math (STEAM) lab; Repair the clock tower, exterior stairs, windows and sidewalks; Replace temperature controls; Restore the brick building’s masonry as needed; Replace the 1938 gymnasium windows; and Install a backflow preventer for stormwater mitigation.

At the much newer Sullivan West High School in Lake Huntington, a STEAM lab is also proposed, along with replacing select flooring and repairing sidewalks as needed.

The allocation breakdown per campus, for which final figures depend on the amount of incoming bids for the jobs, is approximately $2.5 to $2.7 million for work at the elementary school and $500,000 at the high school.

Asked what will happen if voters withhold their authorization on Tuesday, Dr. Hackett said, “If it does go down, we will go back and revisit it. We have this funding. We are trying to spend it wisely.”

She added that these projects are considered priorities for the district, particularly those that address safety concerns.

Board member Rose Joyce-Turner suggested to Hackett that they post the district’s five-year plan on the website to provide context for voters.

“Show the breadth and scope of it. Lay it out clearly for our citizens so they can see the direction,” she said.

Polling places—which are located in Callicoon at the Delaware Youth Center, in Jeffersonville at the Sullivan West Elementary School and in Narrowsburg at the Tusten-Cochecton Library—will be open from noon to 9 p.m. on October 27.

Absentee ballot applications are available by contacting District Clerk Peg Luty at 845/482-4610, ext. 3000.

Other meeting highlights included: • Dr. Hackett provided a 2014-2015 SWCS Academic Achievement report, offering data on math and English Language Arts (ELA) test scores for grades three to eight, Opt Out (test refusal) percentages (27% for ELA and 34% for math, compared to New York State figures of 26% ELA and 31% Math), High School Regents exam passing rates, college credit courses, Advanced Placement, ACT and SAT scores, and graduation statistics.

• Sullivan County Sheriff’s Deputy Jack Harb was introduced as the School Resource Officer for the elementary and high school, a new position established as a recommendation of the Safety Committee.

• The kick-off meeting of the Community Task Force, which will discuss strategies to combat substance abuse and other risky student behaviors, will be held Oct. 22 at 6:30 p.m. in the high school library. All are welcome.

Litterer caught in Cochecton

By ANYA TIKKA

L

AKE HUNTINGTON, NY — At the town meeting on October 14, the town council discussed garbage left on the roads after Keep Cochecton Green (KCG) committee’s Jerold Yavarkovsky, a member of the committee, raised concerns over medical waste being left mainly on and around Route 17B. He said it had been a bad problem for a long time, and attempts to locate the offender had not been successsful. Finally, a piece of junk mail with an address was found among the garbage, and a sheriff’s deputy was dispatched to make queries.

“They confessed, were arrested, and now have a summons,” Yavarkovsky reported. “There’s a November hearing, and the committee plans to be in court

that night.” He also said, “It was mostly dirty diapers, about 30.”

Councilmember Larry Richardson said, “Anybody who travels there sees the diapers; there are a lot all over, torn up.”

Yavarkovsky noted, “The woman put her diapers right next to the [Keep Cochecton Green] sign.”

Councilmember Anna Story said, “Such a person may need supervision; I suspect it’s an elderly person who’s not well.”

Roads were also a topic for discussion, when Richardson gave the County Charter Commission’s report, and said that despite the Upper Delaware Scenic Byway being voted the second best Scenic Autumn Drive in a USA Today poll, road conditions remain bad.

“The conditions on Route 97 from Hancock to below Narrowsburg are not good.

Visitors here have to spend their time with potholes—it’s not good promotion.”

He said that every road authority that’s been contacted said they have no money, and Route 97 is not a priority road.

In other business, councilmember and Ambulance Corps committee chair Paul Salzburg spoke about emergency responses in the area after meeting with several organizations involved. “We talked about several things, including volunteerism and how we can solve this. Public health is not in danger, response time is sometimes slow, and there are cost issues,” he reported.

He added, “Maybe there’s a possibility of forming some kind of union with the Narrowsburg ambulance crew, and maybe with Callicoon; I also spoke to the safety crew at the county, maybe some kind of joint effort with the fire department.”

He added, “The solution is not going to happen overnight, but I do feel at some point we have to make some tough decisions.”

Story suggested, “Ask the fire department to have some kind of meeting with them. If you want to search that route, there should be a meeting with fire, ambulance, maybe you?”

Supervisor Gary Maas offered that he’d had a meeting with the owner of Mobilemedic—the county’s commercial ambulance service— who suggested they have a station in the Town of Bethel.

Maas said it would be a good thing for Cochecton and the other towns in the Western part of the county because the Mobilmedic ambulance would get to the scene more quickly than if it were coming from Monticello.

Eldred and the state counseling program

By ANYA TIKKA

E

LDRED, NY — The impact of outside influences on academic performance was the dominant topic at the October 14 meeting of the Eldred Central School District, as board members and administrators discussed the new K-12 Comprehensive Counseling Plan and possible drug testing.

High school principal Scott Krebs said the counseling program was “yet another unfunded state mandated program,” and then outlined what it entailed.

“Our counselors are traditionally guidance counselors, but they are drained, and help is needed with things happening in the schools,” he said. There’s a shift from guidance to a comprehensive program providing academic, career, personal and social development counseling.

“With that, we had to come up with a plan that was consistent with issues in Eldred,” he added. The plan includes charts about the kinds of issues that are arising, and the plan can be changed every year.

Krebs said drug and alcohol awareness is one issue that’s come up a lot at board meetings. He said that already the counselors are going to classrooms to address it, and a seventh-grade mentoring program is in place. He said the plan is similar to those in other districts.

Board member Brian Siegel raised questions about the role of the state in schools, and said some of the things in the plan may not be the best for the district.

He read from the plan, which said Common Core requirements are placing different, increasing demands on both staff and students, and asked about the role of counseling in this context.

“If there’s one place that should be sacred, it’s counseling. It should be separate from academics, and the issues can be nothing to do with academics,” he said.

He said there are emotional, home-life, drug and selfawareness issues for which students may not have any other support.

Board member Carol Bliefernich said it’s not the role of school to provide counseling for academics only, but to “help students within the larger issues of their lives.” But, she added, “It’s never been the role of the school to be the true mental health professional.”

Siegel again expressed concern over what he feels is state interference with how local schools are run.

Superintendent Robert Dufour said the plan is a road map of sorts. He said the counselors have been doing a lot of the work on the program already, and the plan is required by the governor.

Addressing a different issue, Dufour said to the board, “You asked me to look into the feasibility of drug testing.” He said he sent queries asking if any school in the state was doing testing, and received no answers.

He was, however, able to learn about the drug testing program in Delaware Valley (DV) School District in Pennsylvania.

“They had to go to court to start it. The judge ruled that if the parents did not give permission, that [counts as] a positive result for the test,” Dufour said, and a positive result leads to a drug counseling program and the requirement that the student be tested until found negative for several consecutive weeks.

He said, “But in New York, we cannot penalize a student if a parent says ‘no.’”

Another issue at DV is confidentiality. If a student going to the counseling program is on any prescription drugs, they may not want to divulge the fact, but it may come up in drug testing.

Dufour said there’s research showing many students value extracurricular activities most highly and that drug testing in that arena would be effective, but, “Our focus should be on prevention. From a legal and financial point, focus on prevention, education.”

Regarding Common Core, it was determined that Dufour would give a presentation about the program at a future meeting.

Halloween curfew and holiday plans in Port Jervis

By ANYA TIKKA

P

ORT JERVIS, NY — At the meeting on October 13, the common council passed the customary resolution for Halloween curfew in the interest of public safety.

It runs from October 19 through November 9 from 9 p.m. until 6 a.m. for everyone under the age of 17 years, unless accompanied by a parent or guardian, or attending an educational establishment.

Holiday season celebrations came up several times during the meeting.

Councilmember Robert Waligroski said the annual Halloween parade will take place Sunday, October 25 at 3:30 p.m. Line-up will be at 3 on Hammond Street in front of City Hall, and after the parade, refreshments will be served and prizes awarded at Farnum Park.

Port Jervis Tourism Board member Laura Meyer, who was the driving force behind the success of the Fall Foliage Festival, stepped up to say the next big event will be the Christkindlmarkt, an outdoor holiday market, with the Santa Express coming again. She said this year they would have barriers with which they hope to alleviate problems with crowding of kids and parents experienced at last year’s event.

Mayor Kelly Decker congratulated her on the Fall Foliage Festival’s success, “You did a fabulous job, and we’re looking forward the next event.”

Decker also said Brother Bruno’s Pizza is sponsoring an event Sunday December 20, a gift giveaway. They asked for permission to close the section on Front Street from Sussex Street to Pike Street, and it was granted.

Industrial Development liaison Robert Ritchie said that at the special meeting on September 30 it was determined that the Future Homes PILOT agreement was in default, effectively terminating the special tax-break agreement because its terms had not been met.

Code and legislative chair Stan Siegel asked for people to

contact the mayor or Siegal directly instead of commenting on Facebook. “I would recommend people come to the codes meeting. We had a wide discussion in the last meeting, and very few people were there to help us with that. We try to do the best for the community, and it’s difficult without your input.”

Siegel is also senior advisor, and he reported that housing representatives are looking for a tenant, “I met with representatives who are looking for anybody over 55 who’s looking for a nice clean apartment.”

Mayor Kelly Decker said separately that Water’s Edge housing is giving free Internet and TV for a year if residents sign up before December 13.

Council member Frank Bell held up a long list of properties for sale in the city, exclaiming, “As you can see, there are an awful lot of properties to for sale.”

Decker reminded winter parking regulations are going to be in force from December 1. “Make sure you get the parking permit, same price as last year,” he said.

Siegel was honored for 50 years of outstanding service to the fire department. Councilmember Frank Bell congratulated in his turn about his long years of service.

Siegel added, “The fire department is looking for volunteers. There’s free training; this is an opportunity to serve the community. We would have to pay a lot of money if we didn’t have volunteers. Contact the fire chief. There are jobs for young people and even older people.”

Siegel also spoke about the services available in the city.

“Meals on Wheels program has been discussed and revised many times, but many people have gotten off the program.

The food is better than it was. There are lots of slots available, better food, menu varies. Call 612/326-6706.”

He continued about volunteering, “Sign up, get involved!”

He noted that people are in need and may be unable to prepare their lunch or supper themselves. “Some people get the opportunity not only to get a hot meal, but also someone to visit them.”

New library opens in Monticello

M

ONTICELLO, NY — More than 200 people braved the cold temps and flurries on October to participate in the ribbon-cutting ceremony celebrating the new Ethelbert B. Crawford Library building. Lining Broadway, folks passed books from the old building, which opened in 1936, to the new one at 479 Broadway in a “Book Brigade” symbolizing the more than 30,000 books that made the journey from one building to the other. During the opening ceremony the new library logo, designed by recent Monticello High School graduate Jonathan Fox, was unveiled by Library Director Mary Paige Lang-Clouse. The new facility will be open for business starting October 26.

Silver Feather goes to Narrowsburg Beautification Sullivan Renaissance changes outlined

By ISABEL BRAVERMAN

N

ARROWSBURG, NY — Helen Budrock, the Community Planner for Sullivan Renaissance, was at the recent Tusten Town Board meeting to present the Narrowsburg Beautification Group with the Category C Silver Feather Award of $10,000. She joked that they must be tired of her presenting them with awards, as they have won multiple in previous years, including the highest honor the Golden Feather Award in 2012.

The Silver Feather recognizes their efforts in beautifying the town, such as planting flowers along Main Street.

Budrock also announced that there is a new grant category available for 2016: the Municipal Partnership Grant Program. This new category aims to engage towns and villages in supporting volunteer beautification efforts while improving code enforcement, maintaining public spaces, enhancing gateways and addressing other issues.

Prospective applicants are asked to submit an expression-of-interest form no later than Monday, November 30. A limited number of municipalities will be selected to participate. A Phase I Grant offers $15,000 (match required). The Phase II Grant First Place is $100,000 (a state grant secured by Assemblywoman Aileen Gunther).

Another new program is the Healthy Communities Initiative. In the past, Sullivan Renaissance offered environmental initiative grants, which helped to fund community gardens and such. It has evolved based on environmental ideas and opportunities.

“We adjusted that grant program and are calling it ‘Healthy Community Initiative,’” explained Denise Frangipane, assistant director. “It allows us to be more inclusive of other things that would add to not only environmental health, but overall health of a community.” This re-imagined initiative provides grants for projects to enhance and promote the physical and environmental health of communities.

These two new grant programs are to some extent a response to Sullivan County’s low health ranking, which is second to last in the state. For more information, visit www.sullivanrenaissance.org.

This week and next, The River Reporter will present you with information to help you cast an informed vote in the upcoming election on November 3: election stories, your letters about the candidates you support and oppose, and statements from the candidates about where they stand. We will print as many letters as we can, but also check www.riverreporter.com (click “Opinion”) for those we can’t fit in. Meanwhile, there will be more of everything to come next week, so be sure to pick up the October 29 issue.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Green Diebboll is about service

Already working for Shohola

Service is what Isaac Green Diebboll is about. I am writing to add my voice to those supporting him in his run for election to the Sullivan County Legislature, serving District 5. Previous writers to this forum have acquainted readers with Isaac’s history of recording and posting town meetings, memberships in the Hortonville Fire Department and the Callicoon Business Association, and establishment and operation of the North School Studio.

I would like his future constituents to know more about the spirit with which Isaac is creating his record of public service. Isaac has yet to encounter a position he cannot entertain in the openness of his mind or the warmth of his heart. In his campaign quest to personally speak with as many voters in the district as possible, he is paying attention to local and transplant, employed and un(der)employed, liberal and conservative, young and old, etc. He does not seek out opinions to support a preconceived agenda; rather, he has proven his ability to listen and to build community in every entity and organization in which he participates. Count District 5 and the Sullivan County Legislature among them by voting for Isaac on November 3.

The deplorable, bone-rattling conditions of Shohola’s Lackawaxen Road are shocking—and shock absorber killers! When asked to intercede with PennDOT, board chairman George Fluhr Jr. wrote two letters. Dissatisfied with PennDOT’s response, he gave up, and said that writing to PennDOT wouldn’t do any good.

He was wrong. Write-in candidate Shirley Masuo distributed to users of Lackawaxen Road a form letter to PennDOT demanding immediate attention to the road’s deplorable conditions, which many people signed and mailed to PennDOT Secretary Richards. When Ms. Masuo introduced the letter drive at a supervisors meeting, Fluhr said, “Form letters don’t do any good.”

Apparently they sometimes do. PennDOT announced last week that Lackawaxen Road is now slated for resurfacing in 2016—five years ahead of schedule. Did Masuo’s letter drive do the trick? The timing of PennDOT’s turnaround certainly suggests so.

Masuo showed creativity and action, while her opponent sat on the sidelines and did nothing constructive to demonstrate that he cares about making positive things happen for Shohola. Ms. Masuo has already shown that she is ready to be our next supervisor. She’s earned my write-in vote.

Ora Hipsman Shohola, PA

Support for Brandi Merolla Brandi Merolla has already proven herself to be a competent public servant. It was her vitality that drove the Tusten Energy Committee to research and advise the town board on municipal solar energy options. It is her vitality and volunteer work that continues to save taxpayers money as a result of the replacement of outdated lighting, to energy efficient lighting in town hall. It was her vitality, along with members of her committee, that led to finding the right person to provide an energy audit of our town hall so that we can save more of taxpayers’ funds.

Brandi is chair of the Tusten Energy Committee. Her work is always complete, accurate and relevant to our needs. The work and findings of this committee is now sought by neighboring communities so that they can follow the Tusten lead.

It is a likely next step to have Brandi Merolla elected and serve as a town council member. Brandi works hard and stays informed. She has been attending town board meetings for over eight years. She knows the issues. She is not afraid to work and will serve our town with intelligence, integrity and sincerity. My vote is for Brandi Merolla.

Jane Luchsinger Narrowsburg, NY

Steve Dellert for Masuo I’m endorsing write-in candidate Shirley Masuo for Shohola Township Supervisor. I served as Shohola Township Supervisor for seven years, including two years as board chairman. I have a detailed understanding of what it takes to govern the township. I do not believe that Ms. Masuo’s opponent, George Fluhr Jr., has well served the township during his five-plus-year tenure.

Ms. Masuo has presented an achievable platform of programs to better Shohola government while Mr. Fluhr offers none. She is level-headed, reasonable and truly open-minded. We need a pro-active government that is responsive to citizens’ needs. It’s time for a change, and Shirley Masuo is the right person for the job.

I hope you will join me in writing in Shirley Masuo for Shohola Township Supervisor on November 3.

Steve Dellert Shohola, PA

Supporting LaBuda I am writing this letter in support of our outspoken legislator Kathy LaBuda, who speaks up for all of the county.

When her colleagues gave a new commissioner a $24,000 raise, Kathy voted against it, saying, “It is a slap in the face to all other county employees.” Kathy has a proven

record of accomplishments, whether upgrading our radio system for our fire departments, EMS and police, or making sure that we have enough additional employees to help serve our veterans, or funding our Office of the Aging. Kathy knows the issues and knows our county’s needs. Why would we trade in her 16 years of experience?

Please help re-elect her on November 3. You can find her on the ballot, row A, row C or row F. Joan Whalan Town of Highland, NY

A DA should respect the rules Plain and simple: the current Pike County district attorney lost the primary. His own party showed him the door. Why are we even having an election? The Republicans should be furious about this. The district attorney was voted out by his own party.

How is he able to stay in the race? On the Democratic side of the race, he received a few more write-in votes than his opponent. No Democrat ran for district attorney.

Even with the Democratic write-in votes, he did not even receive 15% of the votes cast by Democrats in the primary. That is not a ringing endorsement.

Shouldn’t a district attorney follow the rules? The district attorney cannot even respect the basic tenets of his own party’s voting process—the party with the most Republican votes wins the Republican primary. If he can’t follow the rules for an election, how can he follow the rules in his job? The voters have spoken; we need a change.

Join us and support Kelly Gaughan for district attorney.

Jan and Dave Morgan Dingmans Ferry, PA

Petersheim knows how to run things If Chuck Petersheim runs the town half as well as he runs his businesses, we will all be better off in two years.

He lives up to his word, keeps us busy all year, and builds homes we are proud to have built.

Basically, he always has our back.

Eric Hofaker, Steve Draghi, Tim Lovelace, Dan Giglio Employees Catskill Farms Town of Highland, NY

Padu provides a choice Part of the foundation of any constitutional republic or democracy is the ability of the people to choose among those candidates that they want to have represent them.

This would suggest that there be more than one candidate per position available.

This was not the case in Tusten until Klu Padu made the hard decision to run as a write-in candidate. Norm Meyers, I and other Democrats and indeed, some Republicans, are totally behind Klu’s candidacy, because he has shown himself over the many years that he has resided in Narrowsburg to be an honest and decent man without any political agenda, the sort of person that we desperately need at this time. He has served on the Sullivan County Partnership for Economic Development, among other administrative positions, during his working career. He has the experience to be a very productive and positive member of our town council. He will work for all of the people.

Bloomingburg looms in legislative election

By FRITZ MAYER

T

OWN OF MAMAKATING, NY — The issue of the 396-unit development in the Village of Bloomingburg, with a population of about 400, has upended the political landscape in recent elections. Two past mayors of the village supported developer Shalom Lamm’s project and personally benefitted from Lamm’s actions, according to court documents, while the new mayor was elected with an anti-development stance.

Likewise the former supervisor of the Town of Mamakating, builder Duane Roe, supported Lamm’s development and benefited from Lamm’s actions according to court documents, and the voters turned him out of office in favor of Bill Hermann, who again, took a public stand against Lamm and his development.

The project is still tied up in legal action, and many observers believe that in at least one election there was significant voter fraud committed by members of the Hasidic community who voted but did not live in or own homes in Bloomingburg. Judge Stephan Schick called that vote an attempt to “stuff the ballot box.”

In the vote about whether to dissolve the village, the Sullivan County Board of Elections (BOE) determined

that a number of voters did not have the right to vote, yet in a stipulation reached with Lamm’s lawyers, agreed to allow those ineligible votes to be counted anyway, and that changed the outcome of the election.

The development—called Villages at Chestnut Ridge— and Lamm are still the subject of investigation and litigation, and still fresh in the minds of voters in the area.

The election for the Sullivan County legislator for District Four, which includes the Village of Bloomingburg, is between Democrat Jonathan Rouis, who is also running on the Conservative and Independence lines, and Republican Catherine Owens, who is also running on the Rural Heritage line, and who is married to and the confidential secretary for Mamakating Supervisor Bill Hermann.

Rouis and Owens addressed the Bloomingburg development issue at a debate on radio station Thunder 102 on October 15.

Rouis praised the efforts put forward on the matter by the BOE and the county’s legal department. Regarding possible prosecution in the matter, Rouis said, “I know in my discussions with the district attorney, it was a very complicated investigation that he felt was much better handled by the FBI. They have been there; it’s my under-

The history and relevance of write-in candidates

By ISABEL BRAVERMAN

R

EGION — Election season is under way in our area, and while it is not entirely uncommon for write-in candidates to enter the race, it seems worth mentioning that two people are doing just that in this election. They are Shirley Masuo, running for supervisor in Shohola, and Klu Padu, running for council in Town of Tusten.

The policy of writing in a candidate is almost totally confined to the United States. Locally, this year legislator Gene Benson won the Democratic line on the ballot because supporters wrote in his name.

It is certainly more common for write-in candidates to win in local elections, as opposed to state or national. However there have been noteworthy write-ins in larger elections. For instance, in 1940, Franklin D. Roosevelt won the Democratic New Jersey presidential primary with 34,278 write-ins. In 1952, Dwight Eisenhower won the Republican Massachusetts presidential primary with 254,898 write-ins.

Julia Allen of Readington, New Jersey won a write-in campaign in the November 2005 elec-

tions for the township committee, after a candidate accused of corruption had won the primary. John R. Brinkley ran as a write-in candidate for governor of Kansas in 1930. He was motivated at least in part by the state’s revocation of his medical license and attempts to shut down his clinic, where he performed alternative medical procedures.

These examples show that serious contenders can be voted into office. But in the 2012 presidential election, some write-ins were not so serious: Leslie Knope (fictional character from the TV show “Parks and Recreation,” Chuck Norris, and Mickey Mouse (who has been the most popular write-in candidate) were written in.

Other popular options are “me” or anti-government messages.

Then, of course, there’s the unusual. Michael Sessions, an 18-year-old high school senior, won as a write-in candidate for Mayor of Hillsdale, Michigan in 2005. He was too young to qualify for the ballot. In the 1997 election for Mayor of Talkeetna, AK, Stubbs the Cat won over the two human candidates. He has been re-elected every mayoral election since, and as of July 18, 2012, celebrates 15 years in office.

standing they are continuing their work there, and quite frankly that’s where it should be. They have the expertise, they have the talent, they have the budget and they have the resources to handle those things....

“The other issue is, we have the potential for several hundred new families to move into our community, and I think it’s vital for our government officials to be there to help reconcile and have a community that’s brought together as best as they can be... adding fuel to the fire as a politician or as a government official really serves no purpose. It’s really our job, I think, to bring people together.”

Owens said, “This was from the beginning a zoning issue. The community was told it was going to be 125 senior, second homes, with no impact on the school district. They were also told there would be a swimming pool and a restaurant. To more than triple the size in a village as small as Bloomingburg brings insurmountable problems. There are already problems with traffic, with children running around under the one light in the town, problems of health and safety… If indeed a huge community comes in they’re going to need jobs, they’re going to need job training so they can get good jobs. And these are all huge problems that were not presented in the original zoning [applications.]”

Y

ULAN, NY — Candidate for Town of Highland Supervisor Charles Petersheim received news at 10 p.m. on Tuesday, October 13 that his campaign signs were found on fire. Petersheim said he got a call from Town of Highland Chief Constable Michael Walton that five of his campaign signs were on fire on the side of Mail Road, a small and deserted road in Yulan. Walton was not available when The River Reporter called, and as of press time on Tuesday, October 20 we had not been able to get in touch with him.

Petersheim remarked that burning signs is not only a danger to public safety but also a “threatening gesture.”

He said this isn’t the only threat he has received since running for office.

Facebook pages have been created to criticize him and his campaign. He also said that anonymous people leave comments on posts about him, and others have created fake pages to make it look like he is the one posting, and then they send friend requests to his family and friends, only to write negative posts about him.

Petersheim has his own Facebook group page TUFF (Taxpayers United For Fairness). Part of a recent post reads, “Here’s the thing: If I stand no chance of winning, if I’m the worst person, least qualified, meanest degenerate that is so obvious to everyone, why all the energy being spent on social media and sign stealing and now sign-burning? Why all the efforts to destroy my credibility and reputation?”

Petersheim is running against Jeff Haas. Haas said he has no comment, although he did say it was “unfortunate.”

“I’m shocked at the way people are behaving in this election,” Petersheim said.

andidates and the SULLIVAN COUNTY SULLIVAN COUNTY County Clerk Dan Briggs Rep.

STATEMENT: The eight years I have served as Sullivan County Clerk have been rewarding and challenging.

Technology and circumstances related to living post-9/11 have affected not only our personal lives, but the manner in which we conduct business.

During my tenure, we have obtained grants to convert many of the records maintained at the clerk’s office from hard copy to a digitized format, making them more accessible. More recently we have implemented electronic recording of documents, such as deeds and mortgages, increasing efficiency in the handling of land records.

Perhaps one of our proudest achievements, in partnership with the Sullivan County Chamber of Commerce and Veterans Service Agency, is introducing the FAVOR program (Find and Assist Veterans of Record), in which county veterans having filed their DD214s (honorable discharge) are eligible for a merchant discount card.

New York State sets the general policies at the DMV, but we are making every effort to focus on customer satisfaction.

At the entrance is a triage desk where questions can he answered and where some transactions (like registration renewals) can be completed. We are promoting doing DMV transactions locally, which enables the county to retain 12.7% on each transaction. The DMV also offers a van service that travels to outlying communities and offers DMV services to those unwilling or unable to travel to Monticello; contact your town clerk for the schedule.

Services offered at the county clerk’s office range from assistance in genealogical searches, to procuring pistol-permit licenses, to filing DBAs (doing business as), to notary services, to obtaining a passport and getting passport photos taken.

Over the next four years we hope to add to our services the electronic filing of records and having subscriber access to the records within the county clerk’s office from the convenience of an office or home.

THE RIVER REPORTER

ISSUES Legislator district 2 Nadia Rajsz Rep., Wor., Ref.

EXPERIENCE: I have been supervisor of the Town of Lumberland since 2010 and councilwoman for eight years before that.

I have been the town’s representative to the Upper Delaware Council and the Upper Delaware Scenic Byway and have been chairperson of both. I am a college professor and a licensed healthcare professional.

TWO TOP ISSUES: Transparency is number one. There is currently a shadow government that uses its power to benefit a select few. It is a daunting task, but we need to bring that to an end and restore a transparent, representative government.

Second is the economy. We are in crisis; people are losing their homes because they can’t pay their taxes, and we need to take specific steps to try to change that.

MY STAND: I will advocate for an absolute end to no-bid contracts. Every contract should be subjected to a real and vigorous competitive bid process, and every vendor should be thoroughly vetted. We need to have a stricter ethics policy, especially regarding conflicts of interest and nepotism, but also regarding public officials doing private business with the county.

I will advocate for scrapping the traditional incremental budgeting process in favor of constructing every budget from the ground up. I will advocate for the investigation of public-private partnerships and a better-managed procurement policy.

I will also advocate for increased services and access to services for our veterans, seniors, children and the most vulnerable, including trying to establish satellite locations for services where practicable.

And I will strongly advocate for SUNYSullivan, especially the Healthy World Institute, which I think can help train our youth for careers in healthcare.

When elected as legislator for District 2, I will be the voice in the county for the people of the river corridor; a voice which we haven’t had for 16 years.

Kathleen M. Labuda Dem., Con., Ind.

EXPERIENCE: I have the privilege of representing Sullivan

County’s second Legislative District encompassing areas of Mamakating, Forestburgh, Highland and Lumberland; of standing up for our families, veterans, seniors, law enforcement and first responders; defending our environment, and producing the greatest benefit from our limited resources.

TOP TWO ISSUES: Encouraging economic development: We must actively encourage the creation of new, good paying jobs by attracting new businesses to our county, and creating an environment where existing businesses can expand.

Keep the lid on spending: For essential services to be maintained, we must spend our limited funds wisely. Holding spending down and still delivering vital services requires disciplined and strategic solutions and experienced hands.

MY STAND: Economic development is not a get-rich-quick scheme. It requires a strategic approach to draw new business, while creating an environment for existing businesses to flourish. We succeed when we work together, as we did with the casino project. Together, government and business must promote and attract new ventures to Sullivan County. Whether we encourage manufacturing, retail, tourism, or technology, short-term benefits must be balanced against longterm goals. That way we can provide both essential and desirable quality-of-life services, attracting even more positive development. Our future depends on it.

Keeping the lid on spending is essential if we are to survive long enough to benefit from renewed economic development.

Our revenue stream—the money we need to keep our county functioning—is stretched ever thinner. We are mandated by the state to keep an increase in property tax under the designated cap (less than 1% for 2016). Still we face uncertain costs for fuel, weather-related expenses and routine operating expenses.

Creative solutions are required to keep the lid on spending while delivering the services our residents require. Now more than ever, experience matters.

Legislator district 5 Isaac Green Diebboll Dem., Wor., Rural Heritage

EXPERIENCE: I am vice president of the Callicoon Business Association and vice president of Sullivan Alliance for Sustainable Development.

In 2013, I initiated Access Government, which promotes transparency and better communication between residents and local government by recording county and town board meetings, making them available to the public. In 2014, the Upper

Delaware Council named me Volunteer of the Year for this work. I live in Callicoon, where I serve with the Hortonville Volunteer Fire Company, which named me Fireman of the Year in 2015.

TWO TOP ISSUES: Economic revitalization and ensuring the health and safety of our residents.

MY STAND: As a legislator, economic revitalization will be my top priority.

Agriculture is an important sector of the economy both in District 5 and the county as a whole, and it’s one that can be greatly expanded in the years ahead. Farming can provide a sustainable livelihood, feed our residents and continue to play a critical role in our tourism industry. I also think our county government must do a better job of nurturing the locally owned small businesses that are the backbone of local economy.

I will also support efforts to improve our infrastructure and communications systems rather than spend our taxpayers’ money on speculative projects like a million-dollar hanger at our county airport. And I will make sure that county contracts are carefully reviewed and subject to competitive bidding. In summary, economic revitalization with an emphasis on agriculture and the health and safety of our residents are key.

At the end of the day, county government isn’t about party politics. Honesty, transparency and basic fairness aren’t Republican or Democratic values; they are values we all share. If elected I will work with my fellow legislators and others to provide county residents with a government they can be proud of.

Terri Hess Ward Rep., Con., Ind., Ref.

EXPERIENCE: Born and raised in Sullivan County, my home, my heartbeat, for the last 35 years. My husband of seven years is a NYS trooper, and we have two children, ages five and two. President/CEO of the Sullivan County Chamber of Commerce from January 2005 to November 2013. Chosen by the NYS Business and Professional Women’s Association as Businesswoman of the Year in 2011 for my work with the business community. Chosen by Gov. Cuomo to hold the only voting seat from Sullivan County on his Mid-Hudson Regional Economic Development Council 2010-2013.

TOP TWO ISSUES: High taxes, public safety MY STAND: A couple of major things must happen before people see relief on their tax bills. The tax base must be expanded by new businesses opening and new residents purchasing property, and spending must be cut. To expand the tax base we must expand our broadband and cellular service. This is something the

THE RIVER REPORTER current legislature has been working on for years, and it certainly is not a quick process. At the same time, we must market our current viable options. If we allow only “owner-occupied” or home-based businesses on our main streets, it would serve two purposes: give commuters an inexpensive residence to split their time between here and NYC where they can work from home with access to broadband and cellular service; and give existing businesses access to customers in a very close vicinity, creating a year-round customer base. Transportation to and from NYC could be established with a drop-off on the main streets.

In order to cut spending, services must be streamlined and purchases consolidated. County purchases and purchases by county-funded agencies should be done locally, ensuring the tax dollars spent here stay here. Office supply and software needs and the like should be inventoried and purchased in bulk, as is now done in the government center but not with its contracting agencies.

Legislator district 9 Alan J. Sorensen Rep., Con., Ind., Ref.

EXPERIENCE: My wife Jane and I have been residents of Rock Hill and District 9 for over 18 years.

All three of our children attended school in the Monticello Central School District. I am the former Sullivan County Commissioner of Planning and Community Development and currently District 9’s elected legislator.

ISSUES AND STAND: During the last eight years as legislator, I have proven I have the professional training, skills, political savvy and leadership qualities necessary to represent a diverse district.

These traits and my track record of governing with integrity and sensitivity put me in a unique position to address our collective future.

We must grow our economy by traditional means and through eco-tourism. I will actively participate in the ongoing revitalization of Broadway in Monticello as it becomes a vibrant center for retail shopping, dining, movies, music and culture. I will continue the work I started as Planning Commissioner to grow the Emerald Green Corporate Center in Rock Hill. Today Rock Hill is an example of a community that combines smart business growth with an enjoyable quality of life and the ability to raise a family.

Access to job training and job opportunities must be provided to anyone in the county who desires work. I am also committed to a fully funded Monticello Central School District, which must reap the benefits from hosting what promises to be, for the county and New York State, a successful, money-generating casino

and entertainment complex.

I believe those truly in need deserve our support, and I will work to find an appropriate site for the homeless services we require. I am endorsed by the HudsonCatskill Central Labor Council and the Sullivan County PBA. This spring I was honored by the local chapter of the NAACP with its Recognition Award.

BETHEL Supervisor Daniel Sturm Dem., Con., Ind.

EXPERIENCE: I have proudly served on the town board for 12 years, four years as councilman, and for the last eight as fulltime supervisor. Before that I had 20 years’ management and human resource experience. I was Bethel budget officer since 2008 and President of Sullivan County Association of Supervisors since 2009.

TOP TWO ISSUES: Taxes and job creation MY STAND: In spite of these historically tough economic times, the town has been fiscally prudent and responsible every day, with the lowest tax increases in the county eight years in a row as well as a AAA bond rating. Our tax increases are always under 2%, and that will continue next year. We continue to watch out for our struggling taxpayers.

We have improved our banking, budgeting and management procedures, as we strive to be professional, businesslike and efficient. We did town energy improvements and refinanced long-term debt obligations and are now realizing the cost savings. We get things done, and I make tough decisions and stand by them.

The zoning that was put in place in 2009 has helped to create jobs and encourage growth in the right areas and protect the farmlands and open spaces at the same time. We are pro business, and have had more ribbon cuttings in the last eight years than in the last 20 years combined. We have three new cell towers, and expanded cable service in the more remote areas. During my tenure I have continued to improve the image of Bethel as a place to be and to do business. I work hard every day to serve the residents to the best of my ability, and we are moving in the right direction with a positive future. Running the town is serious business, and you need experience, leadership and vision to get it done right.

Lillian M. Hendrickson Bring Back Bethel

EXPERIENCE: Currently serving on the Bethel town board. Worked as a

respiratory therapist at the local hospital.

Former director of Sullivan County CASA. I possess a lifetime of leadership.

ISSUES AND STANDS: The future of Bethel is important to me and if elected on November 3rd, I have every intention of dedicating my life to seeing our town evolve for the better. I know some residents might be wondering why I am running against the current supervisor, but after three years of serving on the board I’ve come to see a great deal that could be improved upon. Looking to the future, I realize we need finances to allow us to improve our roads, hire at least two more constables and help for the Code Enforcement Officer as finances allow.

In order to accomplish this, I have ideas for revenue—ideas that do NOT include raising taxes, and I’d like to execute these ideas if elected for town supervisor.

I will welcome and encourage all opinions and ideas from all residents of Bethel. I will support tourism and economic development. I will draw new business and attention to all local businesses. I will keep property taxes down. I will preserve and protect agricultural assets. I will be working for the residents.

Clerk Rita J Sheehan Rep., Con., Ind.

EXPERIENCE: I have been the Bethel Town Clerk since 1998. I received my certified municipal clerk designation from the New York State Town Clerk’s Association in 2002, re-certified in 2007 and 2012. In 2013, after receiving over $1,200 in scholarships, I received my registered municipal clerk designation from the International Municipal Clerks Association after a rigorous three-year educational and professional development program at Cornell University, which included two online classes: Project Management and Sustainable Communities. Over $32,000 in grants have been received for educational and records management.

ISSUES AND STANDS: One of the top issues that my offices faces is keeping the public informed as timely and accurately as possible on all town matters such as programs, policies, laws, events, grant opportunities and road closings. Being knowledgeable of laws, county, state and federal departments is necessary to help answer questions. Keeping myself informed by reading professional materials related to the town departments and the town clerk’s office is useful with the dissemination of information. Some of the tools I use to inform the public are the town website, Facebook and the monthly newsletter.

The second issue facing my office is

OCTOBER 22 - 28, 2015 • 9 being accessible to the public. In order to operate an office that is available to the public, it is of utmost importance to be accountable for your time. Making sure phone calls are handled quickly and accurately is important to the caller.

Immediate assistance is crucial for the public, so they may determine the necessary steps to resolve their question or issue.

Council Vicky Vassmer Simpson Dem., Con., Ind.

EXPERIENCE: Bethel is moving forward in a positive direction, and I am proud to be a part of it.

As town councilwoman and deputy supervisor, I have worked hard to help implement sound budgeting practices, which have earned the town an excellent credit rating.

Working together with the supervisor and code enforcement officer, we have created zoning laws that will ensure that Bethel maintains its rural residential character, agricultural landscapes, abundant water areas and outdoor recreation opportunities for years to come. This will also ensure that local businesses will continue to thrive and grow. While the town continues to work at attracting new business, it is just as important to help our existing businesses stay strong. As the liaison to the town recreation and parks department, I have helped to maintain and enhance one of the finest summer camps in Sullivan County, as well as various programs for Bethel youth and residents throughout the year.

I am a lifelong member of the Town of Bethel and have been involved in serving my community for most of my life. I worked in my family’s business, Vassmer’s General Store, for many years. I have held the positions of Bethel councilwoman and supervisor over the past 16 years, and am currently serving as town councilwoman. My husband and I have been married for 22 years and reside in Kauneonga Lake, where we raised our three daughters. We are now enjoying our three beautiful grandchildren, and are expecting another in November.

I would appreciate your consideration for re-election to the position of Bethel councilwoman. It has been an honor to serve my community for so many years.

I look forward to continuing that service.

Please vote for me, Vicky Vassmer Simpson on Election Day, Tuesday, November 3.

Larry Richardson

Tax Collector Debra Holt Gabriel Dem., Con.

STATEMENT: I am running for re-election for the position of: Town of Bethel Tax Collector.

I am responsible for the billing, reporting, enforcing, and collecting of taxes for over 7,000 parcels in my town. In my tenure, I have computerized the office, making it possible to view, print and pay your bills online. I also initiated the use of different color paper for each mailing; white is your bill, yellow is your second notice and the pink is your receipt. I would like to take this time to say thank you all for your continued support over the years. It has been my pleasure to serve you.

COCHECTON Supervisor Gary D. Maas Rep., Con., Ind.

EXPERIENCE: I have been a business owner of an auto repair center for 23 years. I have 12 years’ experience on the Cochecton Town Board, serving as supervisor for the past six years.

TOP TWO ISSUES: Property taxes and emergency services are the top two issues facing us.

MY STAND: Taxes in Cochecton have been stable over the years. For the past two years we essentially have kept our budget increases at 0%, and for the coming year the preliminary budget is slightly less than 0%. With retirement costs always increasing, there has been an 11.9% projected increase in health costs, but thankfully energy and fuel expenses have come down. I would say the town board has done a great job in keeping our tax bill in check, while maintaining our infrastructure. I have always used common sense and look forward to being prudent in spending your tax dollars.

One issue that has become critical is the struggle that our fire department and volunteer ambulance corps have in finding new members so that they can provide emergency services for the residents of Cochecton. In this modern world where it takes at least two jobs for a family to survive, it doesn’t leave much time for people to volunteer their time for the training that is required to fill these positions. I will make sure to assist these organizations in finding a solution so that they can provide the services we need in the years ahead.

Dem.

STATEMENT: My name is Larry Richardson and I am once again asking Cochecton residents to return me to the town board. I have served with several supervisors since 1996. I have learned from them and worked closely with them to make the town run professionally and efficiently. There is way too much polarization in politics today. Particularly on the local level, one must be prepared to listen to all suggestions with respect, weigh the facts and make an educated decision. I’ve always freely shared whatever knowledge and experience I can provide. Most of my work experience involved running large businesses.

Having served seven years on the planning board, 26 years on the Upper Delaware Council, nine years on the Upper Delaware Scenic Byway and now as a co-chair of the Sullivan County Charter Review Commission has taught me how to bring divergent opinions together.

Outside of municipal obligations, it is with pride that I can say that I am a founding member of the Cochecton Preservation Society and also serve on the board of the Fosterdale Cemetery Association.

Challenges lie ahead for Cochecton: making every attempt to keep taxes in check, seeking out ways to encourage businesses to settle in town, support the farms and farming experience. As the casino’s impact on the county grows, so too will it grow in Cochecton. We need to look ahead. How can we leverage the positive impacts and mitigate the negative? Projects will be proposed that we have never experienced, we need to have the tools and people in place.

Experience counts!

Time does not allow me personally to contact all the residents in town, but please feel comfortable about calling or emailing me with concerns, opinions or suggestions on town matters, at 845/9328104 or l.richardson1068@gmail.com.

I respectfully ask for your support on Election Day.

Joan Glase

Dem., Rural Heritage EXPERIENCE: As a current member of the Sullivan West School Board, I have learned that it is possible to keep taxes low without sacrificing programs, and have learned how to stand up for constituents. Professionally, I do fundraising, public relations, graphic design and some grant writing—all skills I can utilize if elected.

TOP TWO ISSUES: Growth and taxes

MY STAND: An effort needs to be made to attract new businesses into our town, which will help relieve some of the tax burden. We need to be seen as a place that families want to move to, where businesses are welcome to set up shop. I want to list all of our businesses either on the town’s website or create a Cochecton business association website to make us more visible to the world.

Cochecton is a town surrounded by the popular towns of Narrowsburg, Callicoon and Bethel. However, we don’t have the draw that those towns have, despite having two waterfronts. We are unique in that we not only sit on the Delaware River, but we also have a lakefront town: Lake Huntington. Lake Huntington can once again thrive. It won’t be quick and easy; it will take work and planning, but if the desire is there, we can work toward it. We need to take advantage of New York State grants that are specifically geared to enhancing Main Streets, to create jobs and support businesses. We need to solve the parking issues, keep the lake clean and beautify the area.

I also believe there needs to more of an effort to keep the citizens informed through newsletters, email lists, etc. I will work diligently with the county and state to bring high-speed Internet to the entire area.

I would be honored to be elected and proud to represent the citizens of Cochecton. Voteforjoan.net

Edwin P. Grund Rep., Con., Ind.

EXPERIENCE: I served on the town board for six and a half years and have served as deputy supervisor since 2010.

I’ve lived in Cochecton Center for 62 years. I work mostly in the town and locally, and live on land that has been in the family for over a 100 years. I have always been active in the community.

•Chairman, Cochecton Republican Party 2008 to present • Liaison, Cochecton Youth Board 2008 to present • Past president of Sullivan County Farm Bureau four years • Coach, girls softball 12 years ISSUES and STANDS: During my time on the board, we built a new town hall with money that was saved over the years, with no new cost to the taxpayers.

We have kept spending down without cutting services. We have the best town roads in the county. We have beautified the town by removing unsafe and unsightly building with little cost to the town, and there are more on the list. I have always worked for the good of the town and its residents.

On June 30, 2015, I lost my seat on the Cochecton Town Board. After the last election, 16 votes were contested and ruled invalid by Judge Schick. He found they had no ties to the community to

make this their primary residence. It went before the NYS Court of Appeals, which ruled the votes were valid.

Are these voters second home owners?

You decide. They live in a summer vacation co-op. That’s what they call it; I always called it a bungalow colony.

The NYS Board of Health doesn’t allow them to use the facility from fall until spring. This doesn’t sound like a primary residence, does it? But the Court of Appeals saw it in a different light, and I guess that means everyone in bungalow colony co-ops in New York State can vote.

Anna Story Rep., Con., Ind.

EXPERIENCE: I worked at J.P. Morgan Bank as an administrative assistant. I was a substitute teacher and secretary at the Sullivan West Central School and worked as the Cochecton tax assessor’s clerk.

I presently serve as councilperson, fire commissioners liaison, and I maintain the town website.

ISSUES and STANDS: Financial stability is difficult in these tough economic times. We need to keep taxes down without compromising the everyday functioning of our town by controlling spending and watching for unnecessary overspending. During my five years on the board, budget increases have been below the tax cap, with a 0% increase.

We were able to budget enough money without raising taxes so the highway department was able to purchase new equipment. Their work has been exceptional due to the diligence of the current superintendent who has planned and worked out a way to purchase new without overspending.

Problems with safety services in our town have recently come to light. We need to have adequate emergency services and I will work hard to make sure that the town’s safety is not in jeopardy.

Unsafe buildings have been addressed during my tenure. The board has done a remarkable job eliminating over 20 unsafe buildings. We will continue to clean up the town and make it a beautiful place for all.

Communication is key to making our town the best it could be. We need to listen to differing opinions, discuss issues and compromise. We need to work together as a group and do what’s right for our town.

The board meeting is no place for needless bickering, as happens in some towns. Luckily, the Cochecton Board works well together. Each person has a niche, and we all seem to get the job done in a timely and respectful manner.

OCTOBER 22 - 28, 2015 • 11

THE RIVER REPORTER

FALLSBURG Town Justice Maria Zeno

Dem., Working Families STATEMENT: Though I am the only candidate for Fallsburg Town Justice that is actually a lawyer, my path to the law was anything but typical. It began 15 years ago as a legal secretary in Manhattan. After relocating to Fallsburg in 2002, I worked as legal secretary for attorney and Town of Thompson Justice Perry E. Meltzer. With his encouragement, I attended law school at night; earned my law degree with honors; passed the NYS bar exam on my first attempt, and was rewarded with associate status in Mr. Meltzer’s law firm.

Fallsburg is our family’s home and so we protect it. In my case, it is as an active Fallsburg firefighter; a South Fallsburg Fire Commissioner; a member of the town planning board and soon (hopefully), as town justice.

A town justice must be at least as well versed in law as the attorneys coming before the bench. It’s common sense. As a lawyer, I have practiced in NYS Supreme Court, county court, family court and nearly every justice court in Sullivan County.

Judicial candidates are forbidden from voicing opinions on issues that might come before the court. Nonetheless, I can assure everyone that

I have no special perspective for one side or another and no ethical challenges about following the law. My highest priority is the quest for equal justice and the presumption of innocence for all who come before the court. I respect both law and court and will preside with true independence.

There can be no politics on the bench, no privilege in the courtroom. Everyone must be equal in the eyes of the law.

The quality of justice in Fallsburg is in our hands.

I urge Fallsburg voters of every party to compare my experience, ethics and ability with the other candidates, and vote for me on November 3.

Amanda Ward

Rep., Con., Ind., Reform EXPERIENCE: I am the daughter of Roland (Gator) Ward and Sonia Ward. My sister is Jackie Ward. We were born and raised in the Town of Fallsburg. I spent my early years as a figure skater, eventually working my way up to several junior championships in the early 1990s. I earned a Bachelor of Science Degree from Wagner College and earned a law degree from Hofstra University. I decided not to pursue a career as a lawyer, but rather to teach the law and mentor our young adults. I am an adjunct law professor at SUNY Sullivan. I am also the senior director of Workforce Development, Diversity and Training at the Center for Discovery. I have served our community on the boards of several organizations including the Girl Scouts, the Community Foundation of Orange and Sullivan Counties and the Fallsburg library.

ISSUES AND STAND: In New York State only one third of the nearly 2,200 town and village judges are actually lawyers. The remaining two thirds come from everyday walks of life and have a great record of correctly dispensing justice.

FORESTBURGH

Continued from page 11

Council

The knowledge and character of a presiding town justice will usually determine the type of experience a person has in court. Citizens have the right to expect a judge that is firm, fair and renders timely but not hasty decisions.

They are entitled to a judge that is ethical and compassionate. They should expect a judge that knows the community, knows the law, and knows how to balance the needs of both. I believe I have the necessary qualities and education for this most important office.

Those endorsing me include retired Fallsburg Judge Yitz Kantrowitz, Sherriff Mike Schiff, Sen. Bonacic, Rep. Gibson, the NYS Troopers PBA, and the Sullivan County PBA.

Stuart Wizwer Justice for All

EXPERIENCE: I have been in law enforcement over 20 years, have a degree in police science and business administration, and taught criminal justice and forensic science at Orange and Sullivan County Community Colleges respectively. I bring a varied, mature and experienced background to the bench. I have experienced a broader segment of the criminal justice system than my opponents, and certainly of the world that we live in, by volunteering for over 46 years. I am a lifelong Fallsburg resident.

I have seen changes take place in the last 50 years with regard to the socio-economic and demographic climate of the township.

TOP TWO ISSUES: Life and legal experience and indisputable ethics are two top issues that are most important to the position for which I am a candidate.

STAND: You do not have to be an attorney to be town judge. Sixty-five percent of the town justices in NYS are not lawyers. The whole theory is that it is the “people’s court,” where everyday people go to settle problems by using common sense and practical experience to come to a decision within the legal boundaries of the law. I will bring that to the bench.

I have dealt with the entire criminal justice system. I know the system well. I have practical “in trenches” experience.

High ethical standards are crucial for a judge. As a candidate I have not done anything that was not ethical and proper.

I have followed the rules of campaigning from obtaining signatures to getting witnesses and posting signs. As a police officer, I enforced the rules. I pointed out legal issues that the defendant did not follow or uphold. I will bring all of that to the bench to ensure that everyone is treated fairly and equally in my court of law. Contact me at 845/693-4408 or visit www.ElectWizwerJudge.com.

Steve Budovsky

Dem., Remember Forestburgh STATEMENT: Our town of Forestburgh has a great history and I believe it also has a bright future. If you give me the opportunity to serve on the town board I will work with my fellow board members to promote fiscal responsibility along with transparency of town records and the appropriate oversight of town business. I will help our board to create an improved method of communication regarding town issues and to have answers to your questions and concerns.

I will also encourage increased public participation in the town government process. It is my philosophy that all board members and town personnel work for the residents of Forestburgh.

My life’s work as a New York State public employee for more than 31 years has given me much experience. I served the physically and mentally challenged and fought for their rights and services so they would have a better quality of life. During my state service, I managed multiple financial accounts, supervised hundreds of employees and used state and federal regulations to perform my job every day. I also worked in cooperation with other state and federal agencies.

My wife and I came to Forestburgh for the same reasons all of you love about living here, and I will never support any project or entity that threatens our town’s way of life. My family and I live here full time and we are here to stay.

Working together I believe we can keep Forestburgh peaceful and beautiful. We can maintain all the things that make our town a great place to live and at the same time improve the way we do business and provide services. Together we make a better, stronger town.

I care about Forestburgh and all of you, my neighbors. I sincerely hope that I have earned your vote and the opportunity to serve our community.

HIGHLAND Supervisor Charles Petersheim Con.

EXPERIENCE: My background involves home design, home construction, real estate and several other entrepreneurial projects. Each has required broad interactions with our local town governments. I’m from Lancaster, PA,

have 100 first cousins and graduated from the University of Pittsburgh with a degree in English.

TOP TWO ISSUES: When I first decided to run for office, the main issue was our budget and the 10% tax increase that was required to balance our budget.

After I dug into it more, I realized a steady hand was needed for public space improvement, community engagement and just a more energetic and creative town board.

MY STAND: I believe our town boards have a tough job, and while they don’t often have the chance to do good, they can do bad. Basically, I want to protect our tax dollars as best as possible by instituting pro-active cost-containment processes.

I also believe our town could do a much better job at keeping the community informed of what is happening in town, when jobs are available, when public meetings are being held and the like.

That information is surprisingly hard to find.

My design/build business has added over $225,000 in yearly tax receipts to the town and school budget, and it’s upsetting to see it spent unwisely and without thought. One thing a small businessperson learns quickly is how to stretch a penny.

Most simply, I feel our town is unnecessarily heading in the wrong direction. We have smart people and unparalleled natural beauty. I’d like to use my experience to better leverage each of these assets so the parts add up to a better whole.

Council Glenn Pontier Dem.

STATEMENT: In May, the Sullivan County Democrat called me “an endlessly creative thinker and community organizer.”

Longtime readers of The River Reporter already know that, because I was the editor 20 years ago who took this paper from a circulation of under 200 to over 5,000.

This astonishing growth happened because I lead a staff that worked hard to tell the truth about life in the river valley and was inclusive of everyone. All of the editorials were signed by their authors so that everyone could tell whether our opinions got in the way of the facts.

It is this kind of fairness, faithfulness and hard work that I will bring to the job of Highland councilman.

For the last 16 years I have been in the forefront of an initiative that has been improving communities in Sullivan County. Through the Gerry Foundation, first working on the creation of Bethel Woods, and then as executive director

of Sullivan Renaissance, I have been involved in hundreds of projects in all 15 towns and six villages throughout the county.

Thousands of volunteers. Millions of dollars. Real improvement.

My expertise with grants, my contacts with state and county officials and my distinguished service to the community can be put to work to help the town.

We can excel in the fields of strategic planning and economic development, less traditional areas of government that involve creative problem-solving and consensus-building.

I have been running a campaign of ideas, many of which have been posted online. I would like to grow this list by adding your thoughts on how we can make Highland a better place. Please send them to Facebook.com/PontierForHighland or mail them to PO Box 7, Barryville, NY 12719. Together we can have modern government in the 21st Century. Help me help Highland.

TUSTEN Supervisor Carol Ropke Wingert Rep., Ind.

EXPERIENCE: I am a lifelong resident of Tusten and have vast experience and knowledge in town government, having served the town for the past 27 years as tax collector, town clerk, town council and the past four years as supervisor. A few of my accomplishments during the last two years of service have been: • Formed an energy committee and have instituted many cost savings to the taxpayers such as re-lamping the community hall with more efficient lighting, negotiated a solar agreement saving the town nearly $400,000 over a 20-year period, replaced the boiler with a more efficient unit.

• Completed an update of our emergency management plan utilizing funds received from a TAG grant that I wrote.

• Changed the phone system resulting in over $70,000 of savings over 10 years.

• Created reserve accounts in our budget and have funded them healthily each year.

• Repurposed a shed to build a dog kennel, realizing annual savings of at least $1,600. Also changed the dog control officer to an hourly rate, saving over $1,500 annually.

• Re-purposing $106,000 in grant monies awarded for our river-walk project to the overlook deck on Main Street.

I have strong moral and ethical, family-oriented values and a fiscal discipline that I believe are in alignment with the taxpayers.

My most important issue is to find creative ways to keep taxes at a minimum while serving the taxpayer.

Brandi Merolla Dem., Ind.

EXPERIENCE: My background is in both fine and commercial art. For 35 years I have operated my own successful 3D display business for the record industry in NYC. In addition, I have shown my art in galleries and published my photos in magazines since 1989. When I moved to Sullivan County 26 years ago, I immediately got involved in my community by doing volunteer work. For the past four years I have served as the chairperson of the Tusten Energy Committee. I have also served on the Weiden Lake Property Owner’s Association Board of Directors as assistant treasurer for the past seven years.

TOP TWO ISSUES: Economic development and job creation.

With the sale of the Narrowsburg School, our town is excited about the opportunities and jobs this project will bring in the near future.

Real estate sales are on the rise, as is eco-tourism. Our economy is coming back to life, and it’s something I want to help facilitate.

Another important issue is the unification of our town. A town board should listen to the many voices of the community for the betterment of all. Embracing varying perspectives is constructive and healthy. Divisiveness has no place on the town board. Working together will unify our residents and realize results.

MY STAND: My hope is that children who grow up here will have local employment opportunities here in the future. For a small town, we have many innovative residents investing in our local economy. A town board that is receptive to constructive new ideas can facilitate economic growth.

Modernizing our infrastructure is on the near horizon: solar energy for our municipality, faster broadband services, repairing recreational and tourist areas while protecting the health, safety and welfare of the residents. Respecting our special pristine environment is an important responsibility of the town board. I’d like the opportunity to get productive things done as a member of the Tusten Town Council.

EXPERIENCE: My wife and I have lived in Narrowsburg for 29 years. For the past four years, I have served on the Tusten Town Board. Before that, I was chairman of the Zoning Board of Appeals. I served on the Tusten Comprehensive Plan Committee, have been the Tusten alternate representative on the Upper Delaware Council since 2010 and have chaired its Water Use Resource Committee since 2011. For the past 21 years I have operated a charter fishingguide service on the Upper Delaware River and have been a licensed real estate broker since 1992.

future spending. 2) The Little Lake Erie dam/culvert was determined in 1990 by Sullivan DPW to be in “poor” condition.

It should be fixed as soon as possible.

MY STAND: 1) I would like to see the Little Lake Erie roadway and outlet repaired, since it serves as the sole ingress for residents and businesses. In addition, the pond is of prime importance to the Narrowsburg Fire Department in the event of a fire. 2) Technologies change. It is important for small towns to assess and reinvent themselves or they die. I remain optimistic regarding the plan for the old Narrowsburg School building and was a firm believer in Mr. and Ms. Wieden from day one. By re-purposing this building for the purpose of education, civic events and agri-business, it is conceivable that residents, as well as others, will benefit as opposed to having an empty shell in the middle of town. 3) In 2011, I ran on the “Three C’s:” Communication, Cooperation and Civility. I believe I was true to my words for the past four years by reaching out to my constituents via email, phone and in person. During town board meetings, I have always spoken out in public for anyone that, I believed, was being treated unfairly.

PIKE COUNTY PIKE COUNTY Commissioner Richard A. Caridi Rep.

EXPERIENCE: U.S. Marine veteran, MBA, proprietor Caridi Enterprise, Wallenpaupack Area School director, Blooming Grove Township Supervisor, warden Pike County Correctional Facility, township/county planning commission, Pike County Conservation Board, Lake Wallenpaupack Watershed Management District Board, and numerous other local affiliations.

TOP TWO ISSUES: Emergency services and the opiate/opioid drug addiction problem MY STAND: Pike County’s emergency responders are 100% volunteer, except for a few paid EMTs. It is our responsibility to support their efforts to protect our lives and our property. Unfortunately, our volunteer ranks have been dwindling due to the extreme commitment that is required of them.

We initiated a recruitment and retention program to attract, train and promote new volunteers for the protection of our

THE RIVER REPORTER communities, working with all the fire companies and emergency service squads.

“Be One of the Ones” will be the common theme to recognize our local heroes. We have also begun an emergency-responder identification card with each responder’s fire company logo to be presented to participating merchants offing a discount.

Our staff will be traveling throughout the county to enlist merchants from all areas in the program.

The Parents for Prevention program addresses strengthening family bonds and recognizing addictive behavior to seek counseling services available through professional agencies. We promote the “Reality Tour” program for students and families, in conjunction with our high schools, utilizing live actors who recreate six emotional scenes to manifest the damaging effects of addiction to prevent drug use. We are working with the courts to increase alternative sentencing and intermediate punishment plans for non-violent offenders. We have secured funding for a full-time, licensed treatment counselor at the correctional facility for treatment while inside the jail as well as post incarceration by order of the court as part of the offender’s probation. As of this date the recidivism rate has been reduced, evidencing positive results from the program.

Matthew M. Osterberg Rep.

EXPERIENCE: 1983 Penn State Graduate BA, history; 25 years as a Milford Borough Councilman; 25 years as manager of Luhrs True Value Milford; four years county commissioner; authored five books on the history of the region; board of directors: Pike County Chamber, Pike County Historical, Minisink Valley Historical; member of Knights of Columbus and Saint Patrick’s Church; president Pike County United Way TOP TWO ISSUES: Economic development and tick-borne disease and drug addiction MY STAND: For four years I have served as the chairman of the Pike Economic Development Board. A diversified economy in Pike is needed, and we have seen a surge in business growth. In the past four years, Kahr Arms, Econ Pac, Middletown Health Center, All Fresh, and the expansion of LP Cylinder have added hundreds of new jobs. We are continuing daily to expand our economy and assist existing businesses. Soon, because of our diligence, a supermarket will be built on Route 739 in Delaware Township.

Tick-borne disease and drug addiction are major health challenges. We have provided medical treatment for addiction in the correctional facility so to allow those incarcerated the ability to find the

road to recovery. These individuals are our children and our neighbors; we must find a way to help, and we are.

Pike County has formed one of the first county tick-borne disease task forces in the state. Many of our residents are suffering, and we are determined to get the state health department to better recognize this issue. We are advocating prevention, surveillance and treatment.

All of our work, senior housing, economic development, drug treatment, recruitment and retention for our emergency services, has a common goal of strengthening our families. Stronger families create a stronger county.

I am also concerned with the autism spectrum section of our population. I have begun talking with groups, so to address the needs of those families.

Steven R. Guccini Dem.

EXPERIENCE: Running together with David Ruby as Team Ruby + Guccini, I am a Greentown area resident and attorney who has operated my own private practice, served 12 years as Pike County Assistant DA, where I headed the Child Abuse Task Force, and was assistant county solicitor for four years and court appointed guardian for abused and neglected children for 12 years.

TOP TWO ISSUES: My teammate David Ruby and I believe open government, fiscal responsibility, aggressively fighting drugs and accelerating economic growth are paramount. To effectively tackle any of the issues we face, I believe we must start with improving local governance by making it more accessible, accountable and transparent.

MY STAND: Pike County deserves better than the partisan, closed-door and career politician practices demonstrated by our opponents. As commissioners, we will serve a maximum of two terms and work with legislators on term-limit legislation; enforce merit-based hiring practices to recruit and retain civil servants based on professional ability, rather than partisan affiliation; shift at least one public meeting each month to evening hours and rotate these meetings to all of the townships and boroughs in the county; reformat the budget online so citizens know exactly how their tax dollars are spent; and post audio recordings of all meetings to the county website, along with agendas and minutes.

Pike County also deserves better than a passive approach to fighting the growing drug epidemic. Through a combination of law enforcement, education and treatment, we will determine the feasibility of a dedicated Pike County Drug Court to help offenders break the cycle of addiction and crime, saving taxpayer

money; establish a network comprised of dedicated county and community stakeholders to reduce demand and raise awareness about existing resources to prevent and treat addiction; and work to create a mentorship program for at-risk youth, such as Big Brothers Big Sisters.

David E. Ruby Dem.

EXPERIENCE: Running together with Steve Guccini as Team Ruby + Guccini, I am a Milford resident with nearly 40 years of local business experience and highly active involvement in the Milford Fire Department, Dingman Township Planning Board, Pennsylvania State Police Troop R Camp Cadet and Pike County Economic Development Corporation.

TOP TWO ISSUES: My teammate Steve Guccini and I believe open and transparent government, fiscal responsibility, aggressively fighting drugs and accelerating economic growth are paramount. As a local businessman and entrepreneur myself, I believe that we must take a more rigorous, proactive and results-oriented approach to the county’s finances and economic prospects.

MY STAND: Pike County deserves better than the lack of fiduciary responsibility demonstrated by our opponents—most notably when they lost over $1 million of the taxpayers’ money on their failed recycling program. As commissioners, our first and most critical step will be to assure that sound financial controls and reporting are instituted, and we will proactively act to protect the interests of our residents. We will publish readable and easily understandable budgets. A financial report of the county will be submitted every month and there will be active, transparent financial management.

Pike County also deserves better opportunities and support in business.

To create more well paying jobs within our community, we must not only attract existing employers, but also provide greater support to local entrepreneurs and strengthen the county workforce through education. As commissioners, we will pursue a public-private partnership to establish a Pike County Small Business Incubator to offer facilities, centralize resources and provide expert mentorship to early-stage local entrepreneurs. And we will work with state and local agencies and municipalities to simplify and streamline permitting processes. We will also spearhead a community-wide effort to attract a community college to the county to offer a range of educational programs.

“In Leadership Opportunity, Jeff Haas falls Short” Asked by a reporter for a comment about recent vandalism and political sign burning, Councilman Haas says it’s ‘unfortunate’.

“This was a great leadership opportunity for Jeff,” said Supervisor Candidate Chuck Petersheim. “He failed to set an example for anyone except the hooligans. It’s doubly disappointing because he is a firefighter and knows the public safety risks of unattended fires.”

JEFF HAAS FAILS TO LEAD. IT’S “UNFORTUNATE” FOR ALL OF US.

Supervisor

District Attorney

George Fluhr Jr.

Raymond J. Tonkin

Dem./Rep.

Dem.

EXPERIENCE: I have served Pike County for 15 years, eight years as an assistant district attorney and seven as district attorney (DA).

I’ve prosecuted over 1,000 criminal cases including murder, child sex predators and drug dealers.

Prior to serving as assistant DA, I served as a police officer for seven years.

TOP TWO ISSUES: Experience as a criminal prosecutor, and the ability to make decisions that are in the best interest of the citizens of Pike County.

MY STAND: My experience as a prosecutor in Pike County is unmatched.

The actual experience of prosecuting criminals is necessary to ensure that a district attorney can oversee the office of employees that include assistant district attorneys, investigators, a victim advocate and support staff.

Experience is essential to being a prosecutor. Having prosecuted over 1,000 cases gives me the foundation to make decisions about how best to approach each case. My experience helps victims understand what they can expect as the case proceeds through the system, which is foreign to them. It is important that the chief prosecutor have the experience necessary to counter defense attorneys who would exploit any opportunity to free their client.

During my career, I have demonstrated that I will make decisions as a DA based upon what is in the best interest of all citizens of Pike County. My decisions have been shown to be free from the influence of other politicians and special interests

STATEMENT: As Town of Shohola Supervisor, I have begun meeting with Shohola citizens to map out a proactive agenda for a new term. I earned both the Democratic and Republican nominations in the May 2015 primary, and am a graduate of Keystone College and Marywood University with degrees in business administration management and economics. After time in the corporate world, I have run my own landscaping business for the last 20 years. A lifetime resident of Shohola, I have served the community in various capacities since I was 12. I and my wife Laura have a daughter, Makayla, who attends Shohola Elementary School.

I believe in a common-sense business approach to governing and deplore the high-tax, nanny-state governing embraced by a write in candidate and her backers who advocate a return to the discredited policies of the past. I favor a low-key, hands-on policy that isn’t flashy but gets things done.

Under my guidance, Shohola has better township roads, a great park with a walking path and fiscally sound management. I feel the area’s uncertain economic environment and dealing with PennDOT and Pennsylvania’s Department of Environmental Protection are significant issues. Both state agencies appear out of touch and hinder the local economy. While issues arise that seem unaddressed, my patient go-itslow philosophy resolves them in time. I believe change is inevitable, and resisting change only makes the change more painful. We must make change work for all of us and not exclude opportunities simply because they mean change. I look forward to visiting with Shohola residents now and in the future.

EXPERIENCE: Coowner of Sunshine Ave. Records, a music production company; past president of the Twin & Walker Creeks Watershed Conservancy member; Damascus Citizens for Sustainability Steering Committee; former VP, The Black Bear Film Festival; former member of the board of the Pike County Public Library.

TOP TWO ISSUES: To work with fellow board members to provide an inclusive, open and transparent government, and to ensure a sound financial future by development of a rolling three-year financial plan, appointment of a citizen financial management committee and creating a financial reserve.

MY STAND: We must expand communications with township residents to stimulate open conversation about how to best use our financial and human resources.

Old-timers, newcomers, snowbirds and year-round residents should all be respected and given a chance to be heard, and their suggestions, questions and concerns thoughtfully considered and answered. Shohola residents are spread out over 40 square miles. Township government should be a uniting influence where residents

can connect with each other and where useful and important information can be easily obtained online. We must replace the current budget process of reactively bumping up past years’ numbers with development of a multi-year plan based on clear operating goals. It’s essential that we pro-actively build a financial reserve.

We need to identify energy efficiency opportunities in township buildings and examine potential opportunities to lower operating costs through joint purchases and equipment sharing with neighboring townships.

Memorial Hospital for seven years; dairy farmer for 32 years; school bus contractor for 30 years for Wayne Highlands School District; chairman of the Wayne County Commissioners for eight years; married 30 years, father of six and grandfather of three.

TOP TWO ISSUES: County budget, Public safety pertaining to 911.

MY STAND: I have worked very hard with the other commissioners and county staff to develop a responsible, annual budget, on time, every year. The budget must provide for essential services and take into consideration the taxpayers of Wayne County. I am proud of our work of creating and maintaining balanced budgets and keeping our expenses in check. I care very much about the cost of living for the future of our county residents.

As a long-time dairy farmer, I have an appreciation for the need to live within our means financially and the need to continue to use our land for business and industry that provides jobs and a way of life for future generations.

Water quality is something that we can all agree on: it is important. As a dairy farmer, I would say water quality is very important, but regulation needs to be balanced and cannot be something that

shuts down the use of our land or economic development. As a commissioner, I will continue to work with our legislators to help create this balance.

The commissioners continue to provide for and develop the upgrades to our public safety system. Next-generation 911 has been a great upgrade for public safety.

We want to make sure that when someone needs help and calls 911 the equipment and professional staff are in place, to get the help quickly to the people who need it.

focused education, I have a substantial public service resumé that includes eight years service on the Honesdale Borough Planning Commission, two elected terms as Honesdale mayor and currently being an elected county commissioner, serving as vice chairman. I am happily married to Donna Fritz and have three children: Azlyn, Bennett and Lucas.

ISSUES AND STAND: I thoroughly appreciate and embrace being a county commissioner. I am blessed to work with two outstanding fellow commissioners; there’s an honest sense of cooperation and teamwork. We share an office, we’re comfortable with one another and while we may not always agree, we steadfastly seek a joint approach and maintain mutual respect. It’s a true collaborative effort. Our assertive approach keeps the county on stable footing; our pension is fully funded; we’ve gone a number of years without a tax increase, and we have the lowest county tax rate in the region. All the while, this administration of county commissioners has garnered a reputation for getting in front of issues and pushing back against crippling regulation. Wayne County is a great place to live, and I feel as though we have a responsibility to help safeguard our way of life concurrent with the goal of making our county stronger, safer and even more fiscally sound.

Wendell Kay Dem.

EXPERIENCE :I’ve been a practicing attorney in Wayne County for the past 35 years. I am a former Honesdale Borough Council member and have been a Wayne County Commissioner for the past eight years.

TOP TWO ISSUES: 1) I believe it will be very challenging to maintain our county services because of state and federal budgetary and fiscal realities. 2) We must continue to address regulatory issues and proposed mandates from state and federal levels that could interfere

with or impair our ability to develop Wayne County responsibly.

MY STAND: I have immersed myself in the human services side of county government because this represents the bulk of the spending on the county level and represents our opportunity to protect some of our most vulnerable neighbors: children, seniors and those with disabilities. It is a critical component of what we do that these people have access to necessary services, provided by reasonable funding sources.

I will always try my best to represent our neediest people while balancing the needs of our taxpayers.

It is important to maintain a balance between reasonable regulations and the needs of our local community. All of us want clean air, water and a healthy environment. Our state and federal partners aren’t always in the best position to understand and evaluate the necessity for regulation of our resources. On prior occasions, we have discussed regulations with these outside agencies and pushed back when their policies fell short of any real need or of a reasonability standard.

I will continue to do this, going forward.

HONESDALE BOROUGH Council 4-year term, 2-year term

Chris Murray Dem.

EXPERIENCE: I was born and raised in the Honesdale area and my wife and I started our family here. I’m a homeowner, a business owner and a father, and I want to see this town be the best it can be.

TOP TWO ISSUES: Transparency and efficiency. We need a local government that its people can respect and trust.

MY STAND: We need Honesdale Borough to be run like a business. We need to implement efficient practices so that money and resources are not wasted.

We also need to connect the taxpayers, organizations, programs and employees of the borough to work with one another to make Honesdale a better place.

n 1858, the only public cemetery in the Honesdale area was what is often called the “Old Methodist” cemetery because it was located above the site of the first Methodist church. Actually, the site belonged then and now to the borough. The inhabitants of the town felt that a more attractive cemetery should be provided for the community and in 1859 organized the Honesdale Cemetery Company. The site’s natural beauty was in keeping with the ideas of the day.

Park-like cemeteries were designed to

encourage the living to stroll and even picnic amid artistic gravestones and lush surroundings. Many handsome and costly monuments were erected for prominent citizens. Indeed, there almost seemed to be a competition among the local moguls to outshine each other even after death.

Among the notables buried there are artist Jennie Brownscombe, author/ attorney Homer Greene and Samuel E. Dimmick, once Pennsylvania’s attorney general.

hen I go away for the weekend, I always have a great time. This weekend I stayed home and had a good time. Thursday night I went to Peppino’s Restaurant with friends for dinner.

Saturday I went and hung out with my friend Olga, who is housebound. I did not want to go just sit in the house, so on my way home I stopped at Tony’s on The Lake and watched the Mets game; very glad they won. Sunday I met friends at Heinle’s for breakfast; had good food, good laughs.

Out and about were Jo and Jack Kelly, Helene Indelicate and her friend Joy, and Earl Burch. Sunday night I went to the Night of the Cure at Woodloch Pines, a very large tricky tray to raise money for breast cancer.

The Chicken Coop is now serving fresh hot breakfast sandwiches (made to order), fresh coffee, bagels and hard roll with butter or cream cheese. Lunch will also be served, but dinner is no longer being served. New hours are 6 a.m. to 2 p.m., closed on Tuesdays.

Genco’s Old Fire House is closed for the season, but will reopen in the spring.

Mike from Angelina’s would like me to let the community know he has been closed due to a torn rotator cuff. His doctors are not sure if surgery or a shot is needed. Mike did tell me the Democratic Rally is still on for Saturday, October 24.

Renter-to-homeowner forum in Liberty LIBERTY, NY — The town and village of Liberty will co-sponsor a forum designed to provide information of a federal program that will assist renters to be able to purchase a home in Liberty on Wednesday, October 28. When a similar forum was held one year ago, over 40 interested renters attended.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) has a program that will enable many of our renters to buy homes in Lib-

erty with USDA support. Representatives from the USDA will provide information and assistance with applications. Due to the bargain prices on many of our homes in Liberty, qualified home buyers can own their own home and pay less per month (including mortgage and taxes) than a comparable house would rent for. Spanish speaking presenters will be present at the forum.

BUSINESS Settlers and Ledges offer free rooms for vets HAWLEY, PA — The Settlers Inn and Ledges Hotel will celebrate Veterans Day, Wednesday, November 11 by participating in B&Bs for Vets by opening their doors to veterans free of charge as a way to say thank you for their courageous service to our country. The celebration includes a fireside chat and wine and cheese tasting at The Settlers Inn. “We’re proud to honor our veterans in this way for the fourth year in a row,” says proprietor Jeanne Genzlinger. “It has become a tradition.”

B&Bs for Vets is a campaign of Better Way To Stay, a project of the Professional

Association of Innkeepers International.

The program was started by Kathleen Panek, a West Virginia Innkeeper.

Down to the bone D

on’t you love it when something that has been around for millennia—fasting! kale!—suddenly becomes a trend? So it was that 2015 became the year of bone broth, despite the fact that this rich soup has probably been providing essential nourishment since the Stone Age. Think of it as the original comfort food. The benefits being touted range from clear skin to increased energy, and anyone who has ever enjoyed homemade chicken soup understands its restorative powers.

The difference between broth and stock is often a question of semantics, but the consensus seems to be that stock is a relatively clear, unsalted liquid made by slowly simmering bones and sometimes vegetables, which is then used as the basis for sauces and soups; broth is a simple soup in itself, more highly seasoned than stock and perhaps containing bits of meat. In most recipes, the two can be interchanged, though stock is more neutral, with a strength and seasoning dependent on how it will be used.

To make stocks with bones, seek out pastured animals from the farms where they are raised. Upstate we are lucky to have greater access to the feet, knuckles, shanks and even hooves that make the best stock. Alternatively, oxtails and short ribs are among the more readily available cuts good for broth, and combining a few meaty pieces of chuck with some marrow bones is also a fine option. For chicken broth, a whole bird works well,

especially if you can find one complete with its head and feet.

The more bony pieces added—like extra wing tips, necks and feet—the higher the gelatin content and the richer and silkier the broth.

For an in-depth look at the benefits of bone broth, I recommend you read Sally Fallon’s seminal “Nourishing Traditions: The Cookbook that Challenges Politically Correct Nutrition and the Diet Dictocrats.” In it, she underscores the importance of bone broths for their mineral content—especially calcium, magnesium and potassium—and vital collagen, a wonderful digestive aid and rich source of amino acids. Broth made from the bones of pastured animals contains glucosamine and chondroitin, which stimulate the growth of new collagen, repair joints, ease arthritis and reduce pain and inflammation. The minerals, collagen and phosphorus strengthen and repair bones and support skin, hair and nail growth. Broth also helps fight infections such as colds and flu.

A pot of stock can simmer almost indefinitely. In the old days, there was always a “perpetual broth” bubbling away on the stove, periodically replenished with new bones and more water. In order to render out all their collagen, beef bones should cook for at

least eight to 10 hours, or up to 24; poultry can take less time, though Fallon still recommends much longer than the three to four hours suggested in many cookbooks. Beyond creating savory and nutritious broths, stocks are the hard-working foundation for all manner of dishes and can be used almost anywhere in place of other liquids with excellent results. Try them in rice or polenta, to deglaze a roasting pan, or to thin a Bolognese. Roasting bones and vegetables prior to simmering creates an even richer depth that works well in earthier dishes. To make your own bone broths and stocks is to marvel at how this combination of a few meaty bones and some simple vegetables gives rise to such exquisite bounty.

Scraps of bones and even feet and knuckles can make a rich, delicious and healthful broth.

2-3 pounds bony chicken parts (necks, backs, wings and feet) or 1 whole pastured chicken, gizzards optional 4 quarts cold filtered water 2 tablespoons vinegar 1 large onion (skin on), coarsely chopped 2 carrots, peeled and coarsely chopped 3 celery sticks, coarsely chopped 1-2 leeks, white and light green parts only, cleaned and coarsely chopped 1 bunch parsley If you are using a whole chicken, cut off the wings and remove the neck and gizzards from the cavity. Cut chicken and any large bony parts into several smaller pieces. Place in a large stainless steel pot with water, vinegar and all vegetables except parsley. Let stand for 30 minutes to 1 hour. Bring to a boil and skim off scum that rises to the top. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 6 to 24 hours. The longer you cook the stock, the richer and more flavorful it will be.

About 10 minutes before finishing the stock, stir in the parsley. This imparts additional mineral ions. Turn the heat off and cool. Strain the stock through a fine mesh into a large bowl, pot or jar and refrigerate, covered, until fat rises to the top and congeals. Skim this off and transfer the stock to covered containers to store in your fridge or freezer. It will keep in your fridge for three to four days; if you want to keep it there longer, you need to boil it again.

This exhibition features ab- Dinkey Jr. stract forms in all their glory, both geometrically measured and energetically liberated, showing a full spectrum of color, sensation and emotion. Dinkeyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s painting is very formal in its approach, using the grid as a means of structure to convey emotions and ideas through color. He recently started using text and poetry in his work.

Fredaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s paintings begin with looking. The Catskill Mountain surroundings of her studio offer a rich palette of colors and a complex variety of forms. She responds to these elements of nature, and this is translated into the lines, gestures, atmospheric spaces and shapes in her paintings. She uses this vocabulary to find her images during the process of making a painting.

Gallery hours at the CAS Arts Center are Thursdays to Saturdays 11 a.m. to 6 p.m., Sundays 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. and Mondays 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. The CAS Arts Center is wheelchair accessible.

Harpists defy categorization HAWLEY, PA — Harmony Presents will showcase harpists Addi and Jacq on Saturday, October 24 at 8 p.m.

“Their music tremors with Parisian Café Pop, subterranean classical, R&B and soul, resisting traditional standards,” said Jill Carletti, managing director of Harmony Presents.

“Just very recently Addi and Jacq have been crowned the ‘best emerging band in NYC’ when they won the 2015 NPR-WNYC Battle of the Boroughs.

The variety in Addi and Jacq’s output can be partly attributed to their wide range of musical influences, which they said include everyone from Mozart to Radiohead, Rufus Wainwright to Paul Simon. While some buzz with quick vocals and smart rhymes, others bubble slowly with blended voices. All are grounded by skilled writing, singing, and playing.”

I’ve got a secret

It’s not the kind of secret I want to keep to myself, but rather spread the word about, which I’ve been attempting to do for lo these many years. The Catskills, and Upper Delaware River Region, is home to such a great variety of entertainment and arts and leisure opportunities that it, well, keeps me employed. This is not the kind of secret one wants to keep under one’s hat, which is why I’m constantly trying to get you all out there, all year long, joining me and my dog as we traverse the countryside spreading the good word. The hills are indeed, alive with the sound of music, with theatre, art galleries, poetry readings, film festivals and the like, not to mention the plethora of local flavor delivered in every corner by parades, festivals and town-wide celebrations that span the breadth of every taste, from the ridiculous to the sublime.

Last week, I felt badly that I had to give “short shrift” to many of our local events, since there were simply too many to give attention to in the space of one column. Often, I’m flummoxed over how to get the information to you in time,

Bradstan Cabaret Series producer Scott Samuelson and Broadway star Karen Mason were all smiles following last Saturday’s smashing show at the event gallery at Bethel Woods.

A diva in her own right, Karen Mason brought her show “Secrets of the Ancient Divas” to the Event Gallery at Bethel Woods as part of the exemplary Bradstan Cabaret Series.

Bethel Woods volunteer Jamie Aitken, right, posed with Mason after the show and was heard to say that he “couldn’t remember having such a great time” following her performance in the Event Gallery last Saturday.

Signing autographs for adoring fans is all in a day’s work for Broadway’s Karen Mason as she tours the country with her cabaret show, “Secrets of the Ancient Divas.”

Last weekend’s snow flurries caused a little ennui in the Fox household, so I had better prepare for the onslaught that awaits.

rather than simply reporting on where I’ve been, while wondering why many of you weren’t there, which is frustrating to both me and the pup. This is what our calendar of events (www.riverreporter. com/where-when) is for. Once a month or so, I like to be able to discuss, in advance, where I’ll be, so that you too, can take advantage of the myriad opportunities that abound on both sides of the Delaware.

Sometimes, I wonder whether anyone is listening, but when taking my seat for Karen Mason in concert last Saturday night (www.bethelwoodscenter.org), I was thrilled to meet a couple who have recently made Sullivan County their second home, and after recognizing the dog

(sigh), they shared that they were there because of reading this column (I mean The River Reporter) and just beginning to discover the many venues in our various counties that host events worth attending on any given day. I did have the opportunity to give you all the heads-up, in print, that Broadway’s Mason would be appearing that night, and although practically every seat was filled, there were a few tickets available that evening. “I know this performance wasn’t a secret,” I whispered to BW usher Leon Hilfstein.

“This show should be SRO!” Don’t get me wrong, the place was packed, but for those of you who sat home last Saturday thinking there was “noth-

ing to do”—well, you missed out, and you can’t say that I didn’t warn you. Mason’s show, “Secrets of the Ancient Divas” left me breathless, just at a time when I needed her most. Walking in, I was a little down about the weather (it snowed in Jeffersonville that night), the early sunsets, and just suffering (c’mon, I’m Jewish!) from a general malaise, or ennui, if you will. Yes, using words like these makes me feel well educated and fancy, so you can assume I’ll keep doing it.

Back to Karen Mason. Not only did she make me forget my troubles for over an hour, but her vocal prowess is (IMHO) beyond reproach, and bringing her act to the Bradstan Cabaret Series at the Event Gallery at Bethel Woods was a gift to us all. The show is a salute to many of the great divas who have gone before her— Garland, Streisand, Bassey, Channing, et al—but what sets Mason apart is her own unique style and interpretation of these classics, most of which were familiar to the audience-at-large. With long-time accompanist/arranger Christopher Denny at the piano, Karen gave new meaning to old lyrics, and there were times that I felt as if I was hearing these incredible songs for the first time. Numbers like “Diamonds Are a Girl’s Best Friend,” “Just in Time,” “He Touched me,” and “The Man that Got Away” soared as Mason’s amazing ability to breathe new life into an old standard took flight, causing the audience to roar with approval over and over during the night. In a tip of the hat to the original, her stylized “Goldfinger” was a highlight among highlights and quite literally, her performance (this is where the gushing comes in) made me glad to be alive.

It’s not just me, I swear. The day after the show, I got an email from usher Hilfstein, who said (in part) that “Mason is most fabulous, her original interpretations wove each one into a memorable story [and] her pianist was inspirational.” Leon concluded his observations by stating, “It was an honor to be an usher last night.” Wouldn’t want to keep that a secret.

Note: The staff at The River Reporter wants to be able to share your events, in advance, so that everyone can take advantage of what’s happening in your neck of the woods, but we’re not psychic, so we need your help. Send your information about upcoming events to Isabel@riverreporter.com and please allow two weeks in advance. Don’t keep it a secret! Inquiring minds want to know.

Talk on the Shawangunks

G

RAHAMSVILLE, NY — Author Robi Josephson will give a talk at the Time and the Valleys Museum on Sunday, October 25 at 2 p.m. The topic is her new book with co-author Bob Larsen, “An Unforgiving Land: Hardscrabble Life in the Traps, a Vanished Shawangunk Mountain Hamlet.” Refreshments and museum admission are included, and signed books will be available for sale.

The protected Shawangunk Mountain Range in Ulster County is “one of Earth’s last great places,” a hikers’ and rock climbers’ paradise, but it was not always this way. According to Josephson’s book, from early post-Revolutionary days

through World War II, a few hardy families scratched out a living atop the mountain, defying an unforgiving and isolated terrain. For generations they lived off the land, working subsistence farms and harvestContributed photo ing raw materials from the forest and earth.

The museum is open through October on weekends from 12 noon to 4 p.m. The suggested donation for admission is $5 for adults, $2 for children age six to 16. Visit www.timeandthevalleysmuseum.org

Tackling ticks

RIVER TALK

By Sandy Long

O

ver the past decade, I’ve become increasingly concerned about the skyrocketing populations of ticks—and the associated rise in Lyme and other tick-borne diseases in the Upper Delaware River region. Those concerns have been validated by a report released in September 2015 by Pennsylvania Secretary of Health Karen Murphy.

Produced by the Task Force on Lyme Disease and Related Tick-Borne Diseases, the report provides recommendations on prevention, education and surveillance strategies to combat Lyme disease in Pennsylvania and to help guide strategies to address this growing health problem.

We walk our two dogs daily on trails within 10 to 20 minutes of our Pike County home. Ten years ago, ticks were not a big deal. Today, their soaring numbers affect the choices we make about where to hike, limiting us primarily to dirt roads without the foliage that ticks cling to in anticipation of passing hosts.

Many of our favorite trails are now infested with ticks. It is not unusual to return from a halfhour hike and have to remove 15 to 30 ticks from our long-haired terrier. Both of our dogs have been treated for Lyme disease. Quite a few of our friends have also been infected and treated.

According to the PA Department of Health, Pennsylvania has led the nation in reported Lyme disease cases for the past three years. Statewide data show the reported cases of Lyme disease on

I became the host of this female lone star tick, following a hike at Shohola Recreation Area in Shohola, PA several years ago. This species is not typically found this far north in Pennsylvania. the rise in most counties in the state and the presence of the Lyme disease-carrying blacklegged (deer tick) in all 67 counties.

See the report at tinyurl.com/nooyj77. Additional information on Lyme disease is available at tinyurl.com/ pd8c5dt.

This engorged deer tick (or blacklegged tick) might have transmitted the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi, which causes Lyme disease, to its host.

Symptoms include fever, fatigue, headache, muscle aches and joint pain, and in about 85% of cases, a bull’s-eye rash will appear around the bite, according to the Pennsylvania Department of Health. The state agency’s 2014 Lyme disease report showed there were 7,400 cases of Lyme disease in the Commonwealth in 2015, compared with 5,900 in 2013, a 25% increase.
