Brockport community remembers more than a half-century of emergency medical service from Brockport Ambulance by Kristina Gabalski “The village will feel the difference,” says Josephine Matela, former Brockport mayor and president of the Greater Brockport Development Corporation, regarding the sudden ceasing of operations of the Brockport Ambulance on November 21. “It’s a huge loss,” Matela says, explaining that a community-based ambulance service is similar to a community-based police force - “They know the community - who lives in what house, they know the houses and they know the people.” Having a familiar face respond in a time of emergency can be a great comfort, Matela observes. “It is so sad, we will never get it back.” Current Brockport Mayor Margaret Blackman is also sad to see the community-based ambulance service go. “The village supported them through thick and thin,” she said. Just this past September, Mayor Blackman needed to be transported from Strong West to Strong Memorial Hospital for observation after becoming dehydrated and fainting while recovering from pneumonia. She said she requested to be transported by Brockport Ambulance and was provided with excellent service. Life-long Brockport resident Christopher Martin served actively on the BVAC for 35 of its more than 50-year history. Martin’s father, Jerome, was a charter member and Chris joined in 1976. He served as an officer for 12 years and as captain for eight years. Two of his younger brothers were also Corps members meaning at times, the Brockport Ambulance had an all-Martin Family crew. “We had a good working relationship with the village,” Martin remembers. “Each year, I turned money back into the budget.” Martin agrees that in times of emergency, having the assistance of a neighbor and friend can be crucial. “I can’t count the number of times a neighbor or former student has said (seeing a familiar face) has made a bigger difference in the treatment of a patient than the provided medical help.” Martin says he is fortunate that while serving his hometown, he never had to respond to a serious call involving a family member. On one occasion, he was able to help a niece, who needed transport for a non-serious medical situation. Martin was able to sign treatment consent forms for her at the hospital. Martin provided the Suburban News and Hamlin-Clarkson Herald with a history of the Corps. The Brockport Ambulance Corps was organized in January of 1962 and char-
tered by the Brockport Village Board. At that time, the board authorized bids to be solicited for the purchase of an ambulance and officers were named. “These men had enough foresight and concern for the community to band together and start the ambulance. They went to the village and got chartered and it thrived for 50 years. There were peaks and valleys, but we always had a core group of individuals with the drive and determination to provide service,” Martin observes. Many times that meant missing out on special events with family and friends, but that is just something you did, Martin says. He tells the story of one evening when his mother walked by the firehouse to see his car parked there. The car door was open and the ambulance was gone and a young lady was sitting in the passenger seat. “That’s the reason you’re not married,” Martin says his mother told him. His response to his mother was that the young lady only lived two blocks away and could have walked home. “We had to respond,” he explains, “it was a matter of life or death.” Martin also remembers the days when the Lakeside Memorial Hospital Emergency Department was not open 24/7. If the ambulance had to transport there late at night, the crew needed to knock on the door for the nurse to come and then call the doctor at home. “The transitions over time and the advancements in patient care have been remarkable,” Martin said regarding the changes he saw during his years of service. Colin Arthur, Brockport Volunteer Ambulance Corps Chief, says the loss of a community-based ambulance service means a loss of more personal patient care and community interaction. He said losing primary provider status with the towns of Clarkson and Sweden was a difficult blow from which the BVAC was never fully able to recover. “I feel the biggest loss to the community will be the capabilities that BVAC provided in regards to free standby for local sporting events,” Arthur says. He also notes the community CPR classes offered by the BVAC and the interagency cooperation between the fire department, police department and the BVAC. His happiest memories center around crew interactions and, “the difference we made to all of the residents in both the village and the two towns,” Arthur says. “I would say the other big thing that I always smile about is the Friday night squad crews comprised mainly of volunteers. We used to staff three ambulances and there would be fights to see who was going to take the call. The dinners and good times that we all had
File photo. on the squad nights will always remain ... good memories from BVAC.” Arthur says he is proud of the men and women who worked for the BVAC, both as career staff members and volunteers. “I was an extremely lucky chief to have such a dedicated and hard working group of individuals and I feel that to a degree, I let them down. I hope that whatever the future may bring, that people do not forget the selfless sacrifice that EMT’s and paramedics make on a day-in and day-out basis.” David Rice was a member of the BVAC for 27 years, serving most recently as president. Rice joined the Corps when he came to Brockport to attend college with nearly nine years of EMS experience already under his belt. His first big memory was the ice storm. “Who can look back and not forget what the community went through. The magnitude of the storm’s destruction provided the opportunity for the ambulance, fire department and community to pull together for a common good in a way that is seen but not often. It was special to watch and be a part of,” he remembers. Rice notes some of the special and trendsetting events during his years of service. “We were one of the first ambulances in the area to implement a basic life support (BLS) fly car in 1992. While the concept is often used for advanced life support (ALS) paramedic response, it was not typically employed for BLS use. We did. It allowed us to continue to provide 24-hour service even when we couldn’t have someone right at the station. We added early defibrillation equipment to the fly car in 1993 and we had our first successful CPR save with early defibrillation in May of that year
- commencement day at the college. Our efforts saved a life and a special memory for the family members who were there to attend the service.” The recent challenges of re-creating the Corps as a not-for-profit stand-alone ambulance, the change of primary ambulance provider by the Towns of Sweden and Clarkson, and the move to a new building brought many hurdles, Rice says, but most were overcome. The one constant and greatest asset, Rice says, has been the paid providers and volunteers with whom he has served. “These people had one thing in common: their desire to see the Corps grow, to see it improve, and do what it was always meant to do - to be there when our neighbors were having a bad day. I will miss this part of what we did the most and hope those I volunteered with feel the same about what we did for all of these years,” Rice says. “We should be proud of our accomplishments.” Charter members of the Brockport Volunteer Ambulance Corps: Paul Barry, Willard Bird Sr., Claude Carson, Richard DeRuyscher, Frank Donahue, Sr., Marvin Duryea, Charles Eldred, Raymond Eldred, Harold Elmes, Laurence Ferguson, James Gaylord, Verne Gavitt, George Hamil, Robert Henry, Richard Hicks, Ernest Hube, Duane LaDue, George Marks, Sr., Jerome Martin, Sr., Roy Maxwell, Arthur Mosher, George Peters, Wirt Quinn, Paul Raleigh, Paul Seifert, Sr., Earl Siegfried, Donald Sinopoli, John Smith, Robert Stoddard, Calvin Tripp, John Wadhams, Ross Walker, D.

sports & recreation Cuzzopoli scores twice in Rangers loss by Warren Kozireski Joey Cuzzopoli scored a goal in each of the first two periods, but Spencerport fell to Gates Chili 8-3 in the opening game of the annual Charron Classic held at the Gene Polisseni Center at RIT. The tournament is played in memory of Rochester Americans Hall of Famer and former Rangers coach Craig Charron. Cuzzopoli staked the Rangers to a 10 lead at 5:26 of the first period as he pounded in the rebound from a Jason Uebelacker shot. Jacob Wood also assisted on the play. Gates Chili tied the game less than one minute later and took a 2-1 lead before the
first period was over. It could have been more, but Rangers goaltender Rachel Brase kept the game close with several big stops of her 17 saves in the game. The Rangers tied the game 2-2 as Cuzzopoli scored at 2:34 of the second period after a turnover created by Wood’s hit at center ice. But Gates Chili scored four unanswered goals in the second and third to take a 6-2 lead. Spencerport scored their final goal of the game as defenseman Anthony Miceli’s slap-shot found the net after a feed by Alex Cappuccio. Spencerport fell to 0-2 with the loss.
Hilton Cadets sign letters of intent Hilton High School seniors Holland Long and Ray Ottman recently celebrated signing letters of intent to play collegiate sports in a ceremony attended by family, coaches and friends. Holland is headed to the University of Akron to play Division I tennis. “The university is the perfect fit for me both athletically and academically,” she said. Named an All Greater Rochester athlete and the first female at Hilton High School to win sectionals, Holland represented Hilton at the NYS championship. At Akron, she plans to study pediatric nursing. Holland’s
parents are Doug and Dianne Long. Ray will be attending Roberts Wesleyan College in the fall where he will join the Division II Redhawks golf team. Competing since he was in seventh grade, Ray shot a 76 at the county championship. He plans to study biology at Roberts and hopes to become a physician’s assistant. Ray is the son of Bob and Michelle Ottman. “These two are arguably the best golf and tennis players to come out of Hilton High School,” said Athletic Director Michael Giruzzi. Provided information

Young hat trick leads Blue Devils by Warren Kozireski Senior forward Peyton Young netted his first varsity hat trick while Andrew Harley and Austin Ennis each had three-point games as Brockport won their high school hockey season opener 6-3 over the Greece Storm. The Blue Devils opened a 2-0 first period lead with a pair of power play goals a little over three minutes apart. After prolonged offensive zone pressure, Young fed Ennis, who put the puck just under the crossbar for his first varsity goal at 7:12. At 10:15, Brockport junior Peter Taccone then pounded home a rebound from a Matthew Gemerek shot. Greece tied the game with a power play goal before the first period was over and another even strength tally on a wraparound goal three minutes into the second period. But the Blue Devils took control of the contest with four unanswered goals. Young one-timed a feed from defenseman Ben Leach at 4:17 with the man advan-
tage. Harley followed at 6:45 by sending a long feed to send Young in alone for the fourth goal. And Harley made it 5-2 on the power play as he skated from the corner and scored over the goaltender’s glove at 13:44. At 4:41 of the third, Young completed his hat trick after taking a pass from Harley near the faceoff circle and skating to the slot before his wrister found the net. “Our power play was on fire,” Young said about the Blue Devils scoring five of their six goals in the game with the man advantage. “They are great guys and we have chemistry from playing together last year and working together for quite a while. Ben Leach is great up top so we feed him.” Junior goaltender Liam Schreiner made 33 saves in net for the Blue Devils. “I’m proud of the guys,” head coach Greg Stahl said. “They played our game plan well and the skill guys did their thing. “We’ll have moments that are up and down throughout the year and our five-onfive is not that strong, but it’s nice to get that first win.”

For more than a decade, the term Little Brown Bags of Hope has become synonymous with Tops Friendly Markets and the annual Food for Families campaign. What began as a one-day campaign in Buffalo, to benefit the Food Bank of WNY has since expanded across the entire chain’s footprint reaching into Rochester and Syracuse as well as Erie, Pennsylvania, working with 11 food banks across all of the chain’s market and impacting more than 1.3 million people in need. Last year alone, over 60,000 pounds of food was donated to Foodlink in the campaign’s tenth season in the Rochester market. This year TOPS is once again looking for the communities support to surpass its corporate goal of 1.5 million meals, giving hope to families in need this holiday season. The campaign will run until December 16. New in 2017,
customers will now be able to purchase a Little Brown Bag of Hope paper icon at the register. Organizers moved away from the physical bags of food this year to increase efficiencies, allowing the food banks to expedite donations from the store to their operating facilities and then into the market. At the register, customers will now be asked if they want to support the campaign by buying a $5 breakfast, $10 lunch, and/or $20 dinner for someone in need in our community. Also new in 2017, TOPS has introduced the virtual Little Brown Bag of Hope. Customers will now able to purchase the same $5 Breakfast bag, $10 Lunch bag, and/or a $20 Dinner bag online by visiting www.topsmarkets.com/littlebrownbags. Provided information

Release the White Kraken by T.R. Hendrick I swear on my best shotgun that I am not making this up to sensationalize my column like some cable TV news reporters might do. No fake news here, I promise. In the first twenty minutes since I sat down to write this column my white lab pup Rosalee, while sitting on the couch next to me (the only piece of furniture we let her on is the couch in my office where I write), started pawing at me and has stepped on my keyboard twice, deleting the first few lines of this story and scratching my arm in the process, actually drawing blood. Then five minutes later I was trying to type with one hand while holding onto the Nylabone she was chewing with the other so she could get a good bite at it and she accidentally nipped my finger, again drawing blood. Soon bored with the Nylabone, she got down and was silent in the other room for five minutes. That is always a sure sign that something bad is going down. I had to get up to check and, sure enough, she had thrown up on the carpet in the living room. But to show she isn’t a bad dog … all the time … she did eat it all up off the carpet and, believe me, I let her! I just didn’t let her lick me for the rest of the day. Don’t tell my wife, because the pup was giving her kisses just a few minutes later. Cleaning puke is one of my least favorite things to do and this white dog is a puke dispenser. The reason is that she tries to eat or chew everything she sees. She is a lab pup after all, that’s what they do. Just the other day I was in the laundry room and reached down to pick up what I thought was a leaf on the carpet. As my fingers touched it I wondered why this leaf was all soggy. Yep … you guess it, more puke. Luckily for Ms. Rosalee she is cuter than a young Shirley Temple (for those under fifty years of age, please Google). I had forgotten what a full-time job a puppy is. My older dog Cove is now eight years old and didn’t seem to be half this wild at six months, but he was a good dog almost from the start. They say you only get one truly great dog in your lifetime, and for us that is Cove. We’ve had some very good dogs over the years, but none can hold a rawhide chew to Cove. Unfortunately, he currently has problems with his shoulder that have left him unable to hunt. My vet, even after X-rays, can’t figure out exactly what is wrong, so I have an appointment to take him to Cornell in January. So needless to say, “Pukey” has some big shoes to fill. For those of you who did not see my first column on the arrival of Rosalee (http://www.westsidenewsny.com/author/ t-r-hendrick/ ), I picked her up in Minnesota this past June at eight-weeks-old. Why did I go that far when there are plenty of good Lab breeders in New York? I was looking for a particular bloodline that I have had much success with in the past. Cove came from Wild Rose kennels in Mississippi (uklabs.com); they import many of their stud dogs from the United Kingdom. Breeders in England, Ireland and Scotland breed for the calmest nature, biddability, hunting desire and ability to scent game. I love his smaller size and calm temperament and the switch he turns on when the guns come out … he inherently knows it is game on. When I contacted Wild Rose for another pup, I learned that they were booked for yellow female pups for the next two years so I looked elsewhere. I found a breeder at Diamond J Kennels in Minnesota. He had a litter with some of the same bloodlines as Cove, so I reserved a female pup and two months later made the long drive. I am now thinking this just might have been a mistake because calm she is not. Rosalee makes Honey Badger seem lazy (for those over fifty, please Google) At six months she is like a lanky adolescent, all legs, and when she enters a room she comes flying in all arms, elbows and knees sliding on the linoleum floor. My wife says we should rename her

Don’t let this sweet face fool you. Rosalee is the Kraken disguised as cute lab puppy. Provided photo. Kramer after the character on the TV sitcom “Seinfeld,” but she already has a half dozen nicknames…none of them good. If her eyes are open she is chewing, chasing or eating something. When you tell her “no!” she just looks at you with those crazed puppy eyes as if to say, “I don’t care what you say, old man, I’m faster than you and am going to do what I want.” But enough of my pup whining, I promised an update on Rosalee’s hunting training. In October I took Rosalee to Montana to hunt wild pheasant with my son’s two-year-old lab, Genny. I didn’t expect much from Rosalee because she was so young, but I couldn’t leave her at home for my wife to care for. Because I knew that after three or four days of watching the white dog solo my wife would crack and run out of the house screaming, “The Kraken is coming, the Kraken is coming!” Also, when I got home Rosalee would certainly have deposited a pile of puke in every room in the house. In Montana Rosalee had a blast, but she wasn’t really doing any hunting. All she did was run around chasing Genny. At one point Genny went to retrieve a pheasant I shot. Rosalee promptly ran out and took it from her, then tried to run off with the bird before I could catch her. The next day I parked to hunt and let both dogs out of the truck. Before I could get five yards away, Rosalee found the remains of a pheasant someone decided to clean right there by the road. The white dog soon had the guts, including the head, dangling out of her mouth. There was no way I could catch her and remove her prize, no matter what I did to coax her to me. She would only let me get within a few feet of her before she ran off, swallowing a little more each time until she had eaten it all. And, of course, she puked in the back seat of my truck on the way back to camp. Now at home I am working with her to be a duck dog because, unfortunately, we no longer have wild pheasants to hunt here in New York. Rosalee is picking up goose wings fairly well, but it’s bringing them back to me that she is having trouble with. So, my Rosalee update is that the white tornado is winning the early battles, but I promise you that I will win the war. Please keep an eye open for an old guy running down the street screaming, “The Kraken is coming, the Kraken is coming!” To be continued. COUPON

Mike Bove of Monroe Ambulance spoke to Sweden Town Board members during their regular meeting Tuesday, November 28, reassuring them that residents in the town and the village will not be impacted adversely by the sudden ceasing of operations of the Brockport Volunteer Ambulance Corps (BVAC) on November 21. “We’ve been meeting every day and have adjusted our staffing and resources,” Bove said. He said a third ambulance will be brought in the week of December 4 and Monroe Ambulance officials will be meeting Monday, December 4 with officials at the College at Brockport and the Village of Brockport. “We want to alleviate any fears,” Bove said. “If you call for an ambulance, one will show up, rest assured.” He explained to council members that non-life threatening, non-medical related calls might experience a slightly longer response time and that non-medical transports will now be done by the Brockport Police Department, which is standard procedure in Monroe County. He also noted that local health care professionals expect a volatile flu season. “All Rochester hospitals (currently) are over 100 percent capacity,” Bove said. He explained that situation can extend turnaround times for ambulance calls. The loss of Brockport Ambulance covering the Village of Brockport will mean an extra 800 calls each year for Monroe Ambulance, Bove said. Now, the next closest ambulance will be in Spencerport. “It’s not good for this community to have to lose this ambulance,” he said of the Brockport Volunteer Ambulance Corps. Bove said Monroe Ambulance was notified by the BVAC the night before it closed its doors, and that at 7 a.m. on Tuesday, November 21, BVAC officials informed 911 that they were no longer taking calls. Sweden Supervisor Rob Carges thanked Bove for his report, and said it was re-assuring to hear that Monroe has been able
to pick up village calls without affecting response in the town. Brockport community members express shock at loss of Brockport Ambulance Corps Brockport Mayor Margay Blackman told the Suburban News and HamlinClarkson Herald she was “absolutely floored” she did not hear about the ceasing of service of the BVAC first. She said the news came to her after others had heard about it and contacted her for information on November 21. Blackman said she had been meeting monthly with Colin Arthur, BVAC Chief, but was not prepared for the sudden shut down of service. “We are sad to see the Brockport Ambulance go,” Mayor Blackman said. “We really looked out for them and wanted them to succeed.” Mayor Blackman said there had been some talk of a merger with Gates Ambulance. She said she was eventually informed on November 21 by Colin Arthur that budget issues forced the BVAC to shut down when they couldn’t meet payroll. In a statement released November 21, the BVAC stated many circumstances led to the difficult decision to cease operations - including limited call volume, reduced revenue, the need to relocate to a new base of operations, and limited volunteers. Constriction of payments from insurers, increased reliance of paid career staff and increased overall expenses also were factors. Christopher Martin, a long-time member of the BVAC said the news also came as a shock to him. “I cannot believe there couldn’t have been a way to keep it going,” he said. Martin said he believes hurdles facing the Corps might have been overcome, especially with new leadership preparing to take office in both the Towns of Sweden and Clarkson. “It’s frustrating to see it fall apart,” Martin said.

Spencerport community theater presents “Scrooge Macbeth” The Footlight Players will present “Scrooge Macbeth,” a holiday comedy the next two weekends at 133 South Union Street in Spencerport (across the street from Abbotts). The play by David MacGregor begins when four actors learn their castmates have food poisoning just before the curtain
goes up. Not wanting to cancel the performance, they decide to throw out their script and replace it with a series of skits, songs, and dances that combine well-known Shakespearean characters with favorite holiday traditions. “Imagine if Ebeneezer Scrooge showed up on Juliet’s balcony or Hamlet went Christmas shopping,” says David Kent of Spencerport, the director who also serves as the group’s president. Through a series of increasingly crazy combinations, the play fills the audience with holiday cheer while poking a little fun at the world’s most famous writer. Kent also gives a lot of credit to his very experienced cast and crew who quickly embraced the show’s rapid pace and comic absurdity which makes the show a zany delight. “The true fun is watching the actors commit themselves to playing a truly wild comedic character, then run offstage and return a few minutes later as someone completely different but equally weird,” Kent said. To pull it off, you need strong, veteran performers who are having fun themselves.” The show is the latest production for the Footlight Players, a community theatre company founded in 1990 and performing in Spencerport for the last ten years. They
stage a variety of productions: well-known classic comedies, murder mysteries, musicals and new plays written by local amateur authors. A recent season included both Agatha Christie and a musical revue featuring songs of World War II, paired with an original script written by founding member Inez Ringholz, who is the costumer and technical crew member for “Scrooge Macbeth.” The variety of shows attracts a variety of performers from all over the Rochester area. Though a core group of actors has formed within the company, they freely cast new faces and welcome people with all experience levels with each production. It is a point of pride for Ringholz that many of the region’s current community theatre regulars got their start with Footlight, a pattern that she doesn’t expect to stop any time soon. Tickets for “Scrooge Macbeth” are available at the door for all performances: December 8 and 9, 15 and 16 at 7:30 p.m. with an additional matinee performance at 2 p.m. on December 16. General admission is $14, and student and senior tickets are $12 (cash only). Guests may enter either through the front doors on Union Street or through a sliding glass door in the rear of the building, where an elevator provides access to the theatre space on the second floor.

Brockport Big Band playing for food - The band will be playing a wonder Christmas concert at the Greece Baptist Church near Long Pond and Ridge Road on December 10 at 7 p.m. Free admission but everyone is asked to bring canned and boxed food to donate to the food shelf in Greece. The BBB is hoping everyone from Brockport, Spencerport and Greece will come out and support this swinging evening of great Christmas jazz. The band will be playing all your favorite Christmas tunes. The Brockport Big Band was founded 14 years ago by Lorie Bryant, one of the trumpet players in the band. Directed by Walt Perkins, the musicians donate their time and talents because of a love of playing big band music. Over the years the band has played many Christmas concerts and outdoor summer concerts in Brockport and the Rochester area. They also play annually at the Brockport High School Evening of Jazz and the Rochester International Jazz Festival, which has become a highlight event of their concert season. The band performs contemporary arrangements of popular songs as well as original big band era music and jazz classics.
Local author writes heart-pounding adventure Alone in an ice fishing hut on frozen Oneida Lake with only a notebook, pen, and fishing pole, author Sharon CassanoLochman of Kendall set about writing a thrilling adventure of two unlikely friends Stranded on Thin Ice. CassanoLochman, a lover of the outdoors, has woven compassionate insight into the struggles of being a teen with an action-filled adventure that plummets the main characters, Tanner Phillips and Richie Donald, through a series of mental and physical challenges as their goal of winning an ice-fishing derby takes a dramatic turn. Join Award-Winning, #1 Best-Selling author Sharon CassanoLochman in this heart-pounding, page-turning adventure and find yourself Stranded on Thin Ice. “A resonant and insightful story that crackles with authenticity and suspense. I felt as though I was right there, on that ice-fishing adventure alongside Tanner and Richie.” --Kate Angelella, Editor “Best pre-teen book I’ve read in a very long time! Adventure, relationships, and moral dilemmas. It’s all there woven in true storyteller fashion!” --Paula Rogala, CFP® Penfield, NY
Summary: Twelve-year-old Tanner Phillips fishes the Oneida Lake Ice Fishing Derby every year with his dad. Last year, he ruined everything - losing the competition and losing some of his grandfather’s gear. This year, Tanner is determined to not only prove his skills on the ice, but also show his dad, once and for all, that he’s no longer a little kid. But as soon as they get out on the ice, the competition turns disastrous. When one of the competitors goes missing and another gets injured, Tanner’s father must leave Tanner and his new friend, Richie, alone on the ice. After their ice hut comes unhitched, Tanner and Richie find themselves blown across the frozen lake in a blinding snowstorm. Alone. Without their cell phones. Trapped, on thin ice. Suddenly, it isn’t just about winning the derby - it’s about life and death. In one perilous night, Tanner will have to prove not to his father, but to himself, that he has the courage and determination to survive.

Unterborn seeks re-election It has been my privilege for the past five years to serve the residents of the Hamlin Morton Walker Fire District as your District Fire Commissioner. I am asking for your support in the 2017 election. Since the three-district consolidation in 2013, we have accomplished many of our initial goals. Standardized professional training for our all-volunteer force has been implemented; outdated firefighter personal protective equipment has been replaced; improvements have been made to our three stations; and aging apparatus has been refurbished or replaced. These and several more projects have been completed with state grants while maintaining a level tax rate. Upon reelection, I intend to pursue and advocate for the implementation of a long range fiscal plan for the replacement of apparatus, major equipment and the capital improvement of our facilities; the development of incentives for recruitment and retention of our volunteers; the application of grant funding where available and the exploration of options for shared services with our surrounding
Conservative candidates fought for good government The Conservatives wish to congratulate the Conservative Endorsed Candidates win or lose of the November 7 General Election. It was a hard fought race for “good government,” and in Karen Kaiser’s words “to do the right thing.” We also want to thank the people that turned out to vote, and helped our candidates in so many other ways. In the race for Orleans County Court Judge, we had a great candidate, Tonia Ettinger. If we would have had more time, who knows. It was a pleasure working with Jeanne Crane and her Democrat Committee in that instance. Allen Lofthouse, Chairman Orleans County Conservative Party
fire districts and local governments. I intend to achieve these goals in the most cost-effective manner while maintaining fiscal accountability. My past 24 years as a Fire District Commissioner has provided me with the experience in which to work cooperatively with my fellow Commissioners, Chief Officers and volunteer firefighters in providing premier fire, rescue and EMS services to our residents. I would appreciate your support in the upcoming election. All registered Monroe County voters who reside in the Hamlin Morton Walker Fire District are eligible to vote on Tuesday, December 12 from 6 to 9 p.m., at the L.R. Merritt Hall, Lake Road, Hamlin. Glen Unterborn, Commissioner Hamlin Morton Walker Fire District

Hawley announces major bridge repairs coming to Orleans County Assemblyman Steve Hawley (R,C,I- Batavia) has announced that seven single-lane bridges that cross the Erie Canal throughout Orleans County will be receiving major repairs. Bridges in the towns of Murray, Albion, Gaines, Medina and Ridgeway will undergo concrete and steel truss repair as well as painting in some circumstances. “I am pleased to announce that a number of bridges throughout Orleans County will be rehabilitated,” Hawley
said. “These bridges were built around the turn of the 20th Century and have carried countless residents closer to their destinations, but no one should have to hold their breath crossing them. Routine maintenance and construction of local infrastructure is paramount to ensure our community is safe and functioning at its best, and that starts with secure and reliable bridges.”
A list of bridge repairs are as follows: Bennetts Corners Road, Telegraph Road and Transit Road in Murray; Densmore Road in Albion; Gaines Basin Road in the Town of Gaines; Bates Road in the Village of Medina and Marshall Road in the Town of Ridgeway. Construction is anticipated to begin this coming summer and expected to be completed by the summer of 2020. Provided information

The Village of Brockport Code Review Committee is currently in the process of revising the village code regarding A-frame, or sandwich signs, which merchants set on the sidewalk to draw pedestrians to their businesses. Currently, the signs are not allowed in the code, but Brockport Mayor Margaret Blackman says the new code will allow them with stipulations - such as weighing them down so they cannot blow over; bringing them in at night; and keeping them out of the right-of-way. The committee will make their recommendations soon, Mayor Blackman says, “and then there will be a public hearing,” regarding the change. Despite the current code, merchants in the village have used the A-frame signs for years in the downtown business district, and many were upset recently when the village began enforcing the current code which bans their use. “There has been an increasing number of A-frame signs,” Mayor Blackman says regarding the recent enforcement, “it has been causing a problem with liability.” She said the village felt it had to act, and Code Enforcement Officer David Miller had time to address the issue. Mayor Blackman says she realizes the timing may not have been the greatest for downtown merchants, as Small Business Saturday occurred November 25. Village trustees adopted a resolution allowing business owners the opportunity to apply for a temporary variance from the Zoning Board of Appeals for A-frame signs with an application fee of $50, giving them the ability to utilize the portable signs in advance of the enactment of the new Sign Law. Merchants were also notified they had 10 days to obtain the variance before being cited for being in violation of the code. The mayor says signs which hang from storefronts perpendicular to the sidewalk are not in question. They are allowed under the village code - only the A-frame signs are an issue. Josephine Matela, who owns the Red Bird Cafe and Gift Shoppe, says she was not happy when Code Enforcement Officer David Miller informed her she would have to apply for a variance in order to continue to use her A-frame sign. Matela says she shouldn’t have to pay a fee to continue to use her sign. “They are punishing us, it’s not right,” she says. In a letter to merchants identified as having a sign prohibited by village codes from Code Enforcement Officer Miller, he advises them that any person, firm or corporation who refuses to remove any sign in violation is subject to a fine of up to $500. “Everybody is afraid,” Matela says, and adds she feels that she is being harassed.
Matela says when she first called the village regarding the issue, she was told about applying for the variance, but found the fee was $200. The village board lowered the fee to $50 in their resolution. “It’s a matter of principle,” Matela says, “things should stay as they are until the new code is enacted.” Matela says she feels the A-frame signs and other embellishments (including flags) add a festive atmosphere to downtown, which is what shoppers and diners want to see when they visit. “The village looks closed,” she said. Matela is also unhappy regarding the recent purchase by the village of 127 Main Street for use as a new village office building. She says she questions the need for the purchase and the transparency of the decision to do so because the village board called a special meeting with short advance notice to vote on the purchase. Matela says the meeting occurred during the downtown Halloween Parade when it was difficult for residents to attend. “This is not government in daylight,” Matela said. The village board purchased the building for $250,000 with funds coming from its unassigned fund balance. Village leaders say the move is necessary due to the growth of the village court. Matela calls the purchase fiscally irresponsible, particularly considering the village tax rate. She said she feels it would have been better for the village to, “give the money back to village taxpayers in the form of a tax reduction.” Mayor Margaret Blackman says the village did move quickly when it decided to purchase 127 Main Street, but that’s because trustees needed to act quickly when it was decided that purchasing a new village hall was the best way to address space issues at the current village hall at 49 State Street. The village had looked at the property earlier in the summer, but decided to investigate the possibility of renovating space at the former Ryan’s supermarket at 73 North Main Street and renting it from the current owner. It became clear that leasing would end up costing $100,000 more than purchasing property, Mayor Blackman said, so the village decided to take a second look at 127 Main. “When we looked at it again, we realized two other potential buyers where preparing to put in offers, we called a special meeting at 5 p.m. (October 27) to put an offer in,” Mayor Blackman said. Trustees approved the mayor spending up to $300,000 for the property, if there were competing bids. The mayor has said the move will open up space at the current village hall - 49 State Street - in the codes office, where people will be able to wait and meet with the public defender while court is in session.

A unique holiday experience! The multi-sensory production of “Christmas in the Barn,” will unfold once again for five performances in the 1849 barn on the Calm in the Chaos Interfaith Center property in Brockport. Costumed visitors from ancient Bethlehem will arrive on December 17, 20, 21, 22 and 23. Sitting on straw bales, the attendees sip hot cider as they watch the Christmas story re-enacted before them, surrounded by the scents of a real barn. Mary and Joseph, after hearing that there is no room in the inn, find their way to the barn and deliver their baby in the sheep pen. Wise men, angels, shepherds and live sheep help the storyteller’s tale come to life. The event is free to the public, but tickets are needed. More information and tickets can be found on calminthechaos.org, or by calling 494-1795.
B-B students learn what they can do right now - to change the world Students at Byron-Bergen Elementary School gathered on November 27 to honor the school’s Students of the Month and to learn about giving back and making a difference. Guest speaker Holly Paramjit Sembhi, a 2014 ByronBergen graduate, joined in with her personal story of how one person, who was just like each of them, has found the power to help change the world. Sembhi, now in her final year of working towards a bachelor’s degree in biomedical science from RIT, began her education and her love for helping people in kindergarten at Byron-Bergen Elementary. She currently works parttime at Rochester General Hospital and plans to get her master’s degree as a physician’s assistant in neurosurgery. She also volunteers with Global Brigades, a medical relief organization operating in Honduras. She urged students to believe that they can each make the world more awesome, starting right now. “It is exciting for me to come back to a place I love,” she said. “I hope that I can inspire these kids, to make them really want to help others. Maybe they will look back some day and remember this moment. I’d like to think that this might start them on their own paths to making the world a better place.” The monthly Character Assembly also included musical numbers performed by talented students and staff members, and a discussion of what students can do in the community, from supporting homeless children and families to remembering our seniors and the elderly. Throughout the month of December, classes will participate in a range of service learning projects that will have an impact on our local and global communities.

Canal Corp officials, Brockport officials and residents discuss vegetation management project by Kristina Gabalski Brockport Mayor Margaret Blackman says a meeting November 8 between Canal Corp officials, village leaders and residents regarding the ongoing vegetation management project went well. “I was pleased they sent out the people they did,” the mayor said, “they answered most of our questions.” Mayor Blackman said she had been concerned because Canal Corp officials had not agreed to her initial request for another public meeting (the Canal Corp held an informational session October 4 at the College at Brockport), but feels that Canal Corp officials were very candid during the November 8 closed door session. Village deputy-treasurer Erica Linden took notes during the meeting, which are available on the village’s website (www. brockportny.org). Canal Corp officials attending included Deputy Director John Callaghan, Director of Construction Management Dave Mellen, Project Engineer Mike Wozniak, and New York Power Authority (NYPA) Senior Vice President for Public and Regulatory Affairs Kim Harriman. Mayor Blackman, Trustee Annie Crane, Building and Code Enforcement Officer David Miller and property owners repre-
senting each street affected along the canal in the village were also present. Dave Mellen explained the purpose of the vegetation management project, noting that a study completed in 2016 to identify risks along embankment sections of the canal showed that, “3.5 miles were identified as the riskiest - where there would be loss of life or significant impact to infrastructure if the canal wall was breached. Those 3.5 miles are here,” he said. Mayor Blackman noted Brockport has 70 properties on the canal, a higher density of homeowners than any other area in the project, which includes the villages of Medina and Albion in Orleans County and Brockport, Spencerport, and Pittsford in Monroe County. Phase I, which is expected to be completed by the end of this year in Medina, Albion and Brockport, includes cutting trees, leaving stumps 2 ft. above grade, and removing smaller brush up to 10 ft. beyond the total slope. Spencerport and Pittsford will be completed by the end of March with all smaller brush clearing to be done by the end of June 2018. Stump removal will take place in late fall of 2018. “The bottom line is the earthen embankment retains water, tree roots pose risk, trees that die and have decaying roots can

Gabalski photo. allow seepage, can cause earth to wear away, and trees that are living, or trees that fall over, compromise the embankment,” Dave Mellen said. “Heavy vegetation impedes adequate inspection of the area.” Canal Corp officials answered questions from residents and noted that they will return for another public information meeting before stump removal phase of the project begins. Kim Harriman of NYPA explained that the first thing NYPA did when it received operational control of the canal on January 1, 2017, was to commission the risk analysis. “Inundation maps show neighborhoods underwater,” she said of results of the study. “We don’t want that to happen. We are doing as little as we have to do, but as much as necessary to preserve the safety of those who live along the canal.”
Harriman also noted utilities are conservative and anti-risk enterprises. “We are bringing this mindset to the Canal Corp, which is why you are seeing this change,” she said of the vegetation management project. The project will be graded and seeded with grass, Harriman said. “We’ve heard good feedback,” she said of the November 8 meeting, “we are trying to be good neighbors.” Mayor Blackman told the Suburban News and Hamlin-Clarkson Herald the project, which is taking part on land owned by the Canal Corp, will result in big changes for some village residents. She noted the Canal Corp has said it will work with homeowners on mitigation efforts which might include evergreen shrubs being planted as a border along some sections of the project area.
