By Eva Potter The leaves on the surrounding Ellicottville hillsides are turning brilliant shades of crimson, copper, gold and eggplant — that’s why you should become a peeper — a leaf peeper, that is. The leaves, along with a slew of fall activities and events, make Ellicottville the place to be this fall. Leaf Watch There is a plethora of mustsee leaf peeping opportunities in the Ellicottville area and within short drives of the village. Whether you like to watch from the ground, climb right through the colorful trees, hit a few golf balls, experience some epic singletrack or enjoy a leisurely chairlift ride, head to Holiday Valley to view bursts of gorgeous fall color. Nannen Arboretum, in the heart of the village, offers paved and stone paths for leisurely strolls. Nearby Grifﬁs Sculpture Park displays fall’s hues amid more than 250 gigantic artistic sculptures on hillsides, in ﬁelds and forest — even in a pond. Allegany State Park provides you with more than 65,000 acres of leaf peeping paradise along lakes, hiking/biking trails and at special vantage points like the Stone Tower with great views. Be sure to bring your camera! Rock City Park wows visitors with a spectacular panoramic view high above the treetops, providing a gorgeous view of the rolling hills and valley housing the city of Olean below.

Pitillo Comes Home With Villaggio By Daniel Meyer

HV Realty/Rental Mgmt. Getting New Home

In the back of his mind, Nick Pitillo always had a plan to pursue his dream.

The site that formerly housed Burger King

John Northrup, representing Win-Sum Ski Corp., presented a plan to the Town of Ellicottville’s Planning Board on Monday, Sept. 28, to renovate the former home of the Burger King restaurant. As Northrup explained, Win-Sum, the parent company of Holiday Valley, recently purchased the site at the intersection of Rt. 219 and Holiday Valley Road and plans to move its Holiday Valley Rental Management (HV Rental) and HV Realty operations there.

Stay Healthy, Get a Pet Dear Readers: A few weeks ago, veterinarian Sheila Fitzpatrick contacted the Ellicottville Times to ask if we’d be interested in her writing a veterinary advice column. Of course, we jumped at the chance! Not only is Dr. Fitzpatrick an expert in her ﬁeld, but you might just know her, too, because she’s a 1983 graduate of Ellicottville Central School. She’s also a graduate of Colorado State University College of Veterinary Medicine and owns Mountain Mobile Veterinary Service in Eagle and Vail, Colorado, where she cares for small and large animals. She’s a frequent visitor to Ellicottville where her parents still live and her father Dana and brothers Greg and Dan own and run Fitzpatrick and Weller. This ﬁrst column addresses how pets can keep you healthy. The next columns will address how you can keep your pets healthy.

Dr. Sheila Fitzpatrick with daughter Christina By Sheila Fitzpatrick, DVM

Are you looking for new ways to get healthy? Over the years your family physician has told you, “eat a balanced diet with plenty of fruits and vegetables, increase your daily exercise, and of course, reduce your stress level!” But has your physician ever said “head over to the local shelter and adopt a pet?” Most likely not, but read this!

We all wish we had the golden key to longevity, but studies have shown that pet ownership surely can contribute to health beneﬁts for people through enhanced physical, mental and emotional improvements. How you ask? First, studies through the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have shown that pet owners have reduced blood pressure, cholesterol and triglyceride levels, all of which decrease the risk for heart attacks and strokes! Second, pet owners have a tendency to be more physically active. By having a scheduled and regimented walk two to three times daily, pet owners have a much higher level of ﬁtness. Just a one-hour walk per day can increase longevity up to seven years! Third, pets boost the immune system. Studies from the University of Wisconsin-

ECS Sports • Photos Ellicottville Sports Boosters

Madison have proven that having a furry friend in the house can lower the allergy potential in a child by 33 percent, as well as cause children to have a stronger immune system overall. Fourth, pets offer unconditional love and companionship, making the pet owner a more emotionally balanced person, feeling more loved and “complete,” thus lowering anxiety and emotional stress. And ﬁfth, pets offer a window to a more socially active lifestyle. Through pets, owners can develop more social interactions with other pet owners, enhancing their social wellbeing and thus enhancing their emotional wellbeing! So the next time you are feeling frustrated with how you’re feeling emotionally or physically, think about adding a furry friend to your household!

to decide on a ďŹ&#x201A;avor of beer and the food you are preparing to complement one another or ďŹ nd something that are opposites but will be the perfect balance when served together.â&#x20AC;? Minner said food pairings involve lots of â&#x20AC;&#x153;trial and errorâ&#x20AC;? and long-term strategic planning. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is actually a very enjoyable experience because there are so many different ďŹ&#x201A;avor combinations that we can come up with and it allows us to play in the kitchen, experiment and interact with each other about what works and of course what doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t work. Ultimately those decisions are made by whoever is eating and drinking what we serve them,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The feedback we get from people is interesting, especially because many people never realized the many different ďŹ&#x201A;avors of beer that exist and how those can be carefully paired with certain foods to build an incredibly delicious and satisfying meal.â&#x20AC;? The event continues the following day at the Holiday Valley Lodge with the 12th Annual Beer and Wine Festival from 3:30 to 7:30 p.m. Guests can sample from some 100 hand-crafted beers by dozens of New York Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top-notch craft breweries and local wineries, including the Winery of Ellicottville, Heron Hill Winery, Black Willow Winery, Merritt Estate Winery, Victorianbourg Wine Estate, Willow Creek, Gallo, Savage Winery and Amorici Vineyard. In addition, live music will help set the atmosphere that afternoon, including performances by â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hit â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;N Run,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;A Band Named Sueâ&#x20AC;? and another appearance from Michael Nugent. Tickets for the weekend festivities can be purchased online at www. holidayvalley.com . Tickets for the Friday night Brew Masters Dinner are $65 per person, while tickets for the Saturday Beer & Wine Festival are $52.50 per person. The evening promises to be what organizers like to deďŹ ne as a â&#x20AC;&#x153;gastronomic exploration of unbelievable ďŹ&#x201A;avor combinations featuring nationally recognized craft beers and classic seasonally focused, locally sourced cuisine,â&#x20AC;? which is an accurate description according to Minner. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Being able to pair two things you enjoy and others will enjoy as well is one of the thrills I get from this business. The entire weekend should be an excellent opportunity for people to enjoy great food and drink, learn more about what they are tasting and get a better understanding about how food pairing decisions are made.â&#x20AC;?

Festivities begin Nov. 6 with the 10th annual Brew Masters Dinner at the Holiday Valley Lodge, with hors dâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;oeuvres being served at 6 p.m. and food stations open at 7 p.m. The event features speciďŹ c beer and food pairings selected by experts looking to present a dynamite dining and tasting extravaganza. This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s theme for the Brew Masters Dinner is called â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Golden Age of Hollywoodâ&#x20AC;? and will pay homage and respect to the entertainment capital of the world of the 1940â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and 1950â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s. The intimate event includes a â&#x20AC;&#x153;meet-andgreetâ&#x20AC;? segment and will also feature entertainer Michael Nugent playing the role of a â&#x20AC;&#x153;Young Sinatra.â&#x20AC;? In addition, brewers will be present to discuss each of their beers, explain the food pairing decisions and answer any questions from those enjoying the meal. When it comes to how beers are paired with speciďŹ c food items, brewers from the area say there is a method to their madness when they design the menu. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Food pairings are great because, right off the bat, you have to decide if you want to compare or contrast, and that is what makes it such an adventure for people like myself,â&#x20AC;? said Dan Minner, the head brewer at Ellicottville Brewing Company. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You either want

Three Renovated Cabins Open in Allegany State Park Three previously timeworn cabins in the popular McIntosh Trail cabin loop of Allegany State Park (ASP) are thoroughly renovated and are now immediately available for rental, State Parks and the Friends of Allegany State Park Inc. announced recently. “These three refurbished cabins, with their nostalgic character, will be great additions to the offerings available for visitors to experience ASP’s 65,000 acres of multi-use trails and unique natural wonders,” said Jay Bailey, Allegany Regional Director. “We are extremely fortunate to have the Friends of Allegany State Park as partners in preserving this special park for generations to come.” “The Friends of Allegany have had a wonderful and mutually cooperative relationship with park management and its employees for over three years,” said Friends of Allegany State Park president Paul Crawford. “We look forward to helping our beloved park in the years to come.” The nearly 80-year-old cabins are three of six of the only non-electric primitive cabins left in the Red House area. They remained online

and in the rental inventory until 2009, when other McIntosh Trail loop cabins were demolished and replaced approximately 22 years ago. Renovations, which began after meetings between Allegany State Park management and representatives of the Friends earlier this year, continue on the other three with completion expected by next spring. In addition to cabin refurbishment, Friends volunteers paint cabins and bridges, assemble, paint and repair picnic tables and benches, trim trails, pick up litter and more. Future projects include work to make a historic saw mill in the Red House area accessible for public tours; and coordination of larger volunteer events such

This is a beautiful time of year to take a scenic drive to the historic village of Randolph, just twenty miles away from Ellicottville. Whether your interests include learning a new skill, test-driving the car of your dreams, or spending the afternoon shopping downtown, there’s something for you in Randolph. Although there are many communities with fun places to shop and dine, Randolph is unique in that it is a center of learning and creativity. Last weekend, Randolph held its Second Annual Class Kick-Off, when community members and visitors were invited to the shops along Main Street to explore various classes being offered this fall and winter. Expressions Performing Arts Center at 75 Main Street offers classes for children of all ages in both competitive and noncompetitive dancing. You can learn knitting and crochet at Yarn for Ewe or take painting classes with Vicki Reding at Randolph Retail Company. Children and adults can get ﬁt with kickboxing or karate at AG Combat Sports at its new location at 133 Main Street. Betsey’s Country Shop, located at 12 Jamestown Street, offers afternoon and evening sewing and quilting classes. And new this fall, the Randolph Library is offering computer literacy classes on Wednesday nights:

if you want to keep up with the ever-changing technology of computers and the internet, this is the class for you! Students can take just one class, which is ideal for out of town visitors, or sign up for a series of classes, typically at a discounted rate. Potential students can visit w w w. E n j o y R a n d o l p h . o rg to contact these businesses for more information about classes, or call the Randolph Area Community Development Corporation at (716) 358-9701 ext. 208. Interested in experiencing Randolph’s historic downtown? Make it an unforgettable experience by driving down Main Street in a brand new Chevy! On Saturday, Oct. 3, the Randolph Area Community Development Corporation is partnering with Landmark Chevrolet to host a Drive for Your Community day to raise money for the Randolph Community Fund to beautify downtown. Landmark Chevrolet is bringing a variety of brand new Chevrolets, including trucks, SUVs and sedans, for drivers ages 18 and older to test-drive downtown. The starting point is the parking lot of the United Presbyterian Church at 186 Main Street; Landmark Chevrolet will make a donation to the community fund for every test driver.

Not only is this a great time to test-drive a car without the pressure of being at a dealership, but it’s a fun afternoon, too, when you can enjoy free hot dogs and drinks and indulge in the United Presbyterian Church’s bake sale.

Barbara Ochterski Pays Tribute to Rescue Puppy in New Book By Alicia Dziak

Around here, people love their dogs. Whether it’s the annual Pet Parade, the Reindog Parade or just taking them for a ride or a stroll through town, it’s not hard to see that people are always up for a reason to show off their canine companions. Another super cool way to show them off? Pay tribute to them in a book. East Aurora author Barbara Eckert Ochterski has done just that with her new book, Call Me Monty. “It’s a semi-fictional book for third to fifth grade children and adults who enjoy dogs,” Ochterski explained. The book centers around Monty, a small and charming rescue puppy who needs a home and a family to call his own. As a young dog, Monty is self-centered and thinks he can get through life acting like a wise guy show-off, and he has some things to learn. Happily adopted by a loving family, he settles into his forever home. During his first year, Monty encounters new experiences and adventures and makes some canine friends that help him mature. Being energetic

and playful are not the only qualities a good dog needs to develop. He begins to see that there are important rules, like being respectful and well behaved, that he must obey, and eventually he learns the important lesson that it is better to be well mannered and a friend and than simply a showoff. The main character is based on Ochterski’s own dog by the same name. “While we have always had dogs, it was clear when Monty stepped into our home that he had a special canine personality,” noted Ochterski about the basis for her book. “Being marooned inside for several winter months and

watching him grow and learn gave me the idea, so I dedicated time to write the book.” There are many dog books out there, but as much as dogs are unique, so Is each of the books based on those dogs. Ochterski describes her book as “a loose string of vignettes about a puppy’s ﬁrst months in his forever home. I also hoped to teach children a little about typical dog behavior through his adventures in the hopes they could better relate to dogs.” She added, “I hope I captured his thoughts and playfully gave Monty his true voice, because if he could talk, I think these are ideas he’d be likely to have.” The book, written and selfpublished this past winter, costs $11. You can get your hands on a signed copy by stopping by The Bookworm in East Aurora on Saturday, Oct. 3 between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. “I will (in place of Monty) be doing the book signing. He wishes he could come,” joked Ochterski. If you can’t make it to the signing, Call Me Monty is also available at www.amazon.com. And stay tuned...a sequel is in the works!

In my last article, I gave up my age to point out that getting older is no reason to stop exercising. Instead, it is the main reason to continue to exercise. That said, because of my age I grew up quite differently than kids of today. I, like most of my friends and acquaintances, grew up doing strange things like playing hide-and-go-seek, tag, hopscotch and anything else we could think of to get outside. It wasn’t because our parents forced us to, or even suggested it. Instead, it was innate – a part of our lifestyles. Even in the winter, we headed outdoors to build snowmen and go sledding. And as I grew older, I got involved with organized sports and skiing and was always doing something to stay active. Nowadays, many kids are sedentary more than they are active. And, it now seems to be a parent’s responsibility to create the fun. Otherwise kids will happily spend hours with their faces and attention engrossed in some sort of technology gadget. Parents are having a hard time prioritizing a healthy

lifestyle for their kids and technology is partly to blame, according to a survey conducted by the YMCA in 2011. Speaking with more than 1,600 parents of kid’s ages 5 to 10, the YMCA found that technology, time and money are the biggest hindrances to “carving out time for physical activity.” Forty-two percent of parents said “technological distractions – social networks, computer games and cell phones – are getting in the way of active play.” Even though parents are partially blaming technology as a reason for the lack of exercise, according to the YMCA survey, “74 percent of parents opt to spend family time with their kids sitting in front of the TV,” and “53 percent spend leisure time with their kids on the computer and playing video games.” It’s hard to blame technology as a cause of kids’ inactivity if parents are sitting right beside them on the couch. Plus, it is typically the parent that has purchased that technology that their kids are plastered to. As a parent myself, I have given in to the tireless begging for certain technological devices and have found myself watching TV in the evenings versus playing with my kids. But, what it boils down to in this modern age is that I do not feel parents should be made to feel guilty or responsible for playing with their kids. We are responsible for their health and creating a healthy lifestyle. I was fortunate to have parents that did just that. Nowadays, kids come from quite a variety of households, from single parent to multi parent. We do not all live in the neighborhoods of yesterday. But, I do believe that ultimately parents all want their kids to be healthy. School-age kids should have many chances to participate in a variety of activities, sports, and games that ﬁt their personality,

ability, age and interests. So, brainstorm with your kids on activities that feel right. Most kids won’t mind a daily dose of fitness as long as it’s fun. Limit time spent in sedentary activities, such as watching TV, being online and playing video games and games apps. YOU are the parent, take their phones away, or unplug the TV and other devices distracting your child. If we are going to blame technology as one of the reasons for our children being sedentary or overweight, then take the technology away. Kids of any age need physical activity to build strength, coordination and confidence — and to lay the groundwork for a healthy lifestyle. YES, you can play with your kids, take walks and bike rides with them and create opportunities for them to be active. But, eventually, your kids need to take responsibility for themselves. Plus, one of the best ways you can encourage your kids to be fit and healthy is to be fit and healthy yourself. Typically, our lives are busy, but integrating exercise into your own life will reflect on your kids’ desire to be more active. Relaxing after 8 pm and watching TV is not the issue. Having the cupboards and fridge filled with processed snacks, junk food and sugary drinks and staring into some device for hours on end is. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) states that childhood obesity rates have tripled in 30 years and currently one out of every three kids is considered overweight. So now it is every parent’s responsibility to take their kids’ health into their own hands and set a good example for a healthy lifestyle. Any advice from health experts comes back to the same basics: Eat well-balanced meals; reduce screen time; set a good example for your kids.

@EVLTimes 2015-16 Sporting Licenses Available Hunting and trapping licenses for the 2015-16 season are available for purchase from the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) at one of DEC’s 1,000+ license sales outlets statewide. Licenses can also be ordered by telephone or online. When making an online/phone purchase, you must wait 14 business days to receive your license/tags by mail before going hunting. To get licenses/ tags instantly, visit a license issuing agent location. The 2015-16 hunting and trapping licenses are valid for one year from Sept. 1, 2015 to August 31, 2016. Fishing licenses and recreational marine ﬁshing registrations are valid for 365 days from the

date of purchase. According to the DEC’s NY Open for Fishing and Hunting Initiative, last year New York streamlined the hunting and ﬁshing license structure, made it consistent for residents and non-residents and reduced license fees. Some hunters and anglers may not be familiar with these license changes, but licensing-issuing agents can provide assistance and ensure that license buyers secure all the desired permits and privileges. Details are available at the DEC website, www.dec.ny.gov, or call 1-866933-2257. To facilitate the purchase of a sporting license, individuals should have the following items ready: complete name and address information, DEC

customer ID number if you have it, proof of residency information (driver’s license number or non-driver’s ID number with a valid NYS address to qualify for a resident license), and, if purchasing by phone or internet, a credit card and card expiration date. Hunting license purchases require individuals to provide proof of a hunting education certification or a copy of a previous license, if this information is not already contained in their sporting license system file. All first-time hunters must pass one or more courses before they can get a hunting license in New York. Visit the Sportsman Education page on the DEC website to learn more and find a free course near you.

the Onondaga Branch, the FLT is also part of the ofﬁcial route of the North Country Scenic Trail, the longest scenic trail in the United States. The North Country Trail was created in 1980 and passes through seven states and 12 National Forests, from New York to North Dakota. It covers roughly 4,600 miles. In Cattaraugus County, the FLT begins in Allegany State Park, on ASP 2 near the interchange with Interstate-86. It continues through the Seneca Indian Nation and into Salamanca where it enters Bucktooth State Forest. Bucktooth State Forest, located in the Towns of Napoli, Little Valley and Salamanca, is one of the ﬁrst properties obtained by New York State in Cattaraugus County. In was also the site of a work project established by President Franklin Delano Roosevelt to keep men working during the depression. The forest is commonly used for hunting, though hiking is also a popular activity there. In Bucktooth State Forest, the NCT/FLT passes across the top of a conglomerate rock, known as “Catt” Rock, across West Branch Bucktooth Run Road. Following a foot bridge and climbing a hill, the trail passes through “The Avenue of the Maples” and down to East Branch Bucktooth Run Road. From there, the trail merges with the Pat McGee Trail. This 12.1 mile trail crosses the Continental Divide and plays host to more than 40 mammal species and 150 bird species. A part of the Cattaraugus County Rails to Trails, the Pat McGee Trail connects the City of Salamanca to the Village of Cattaraugus. It was named for the late state senator Patricia McGee from Franklinville. From the Pat McGee Trail,

the NCT/FLT enters Rock City State Forest, a 2,905 acre section boasting a picnic area and 4.35 miles of trails. Rock City was named for its unique “city” formed from conglomerate rocks, which are naturally arranged to resemble city streets and alleys. Due to a variety of geologic factors, Rock City State Forest offers caves, tunnels and passageways for explorers and hikers alike. In Rock City State Forest, the .7 mile Little Rock City Nature Trail is 0.7 winds through the rock beds and hanging fern gardens. Because of the passages and tunnels, walking through the forest can feel cooler and less humid than on top of the rocks, and it’s not uncommon to ﬁnd snow in between the rocks into mid May. Due to these environmental conditions, several plant species found in Rock City are not often found elsewhere in Western New York. Clintonia, painted trillium, polypody fern and rock tripe can be found in Rock City State Forest. Little Rock City is located at the end of Little Rock City Forest Road. This is one of three “rock cities” in Cattaraugus County. The others are Rock City Park, south of Olean, and Thunder Rocks in Allegany State Park. The Camp Seneca Loop Trail is also part of Rock City State Forest, which starts near the pond at Camp Seneca and runs adjacent to Holiday Valley

property. It is also known to mountain bikers as the Billy Goat Trail. From the Camp Seneca Loop Trail, hikers can enter McCarty Hill State Forest, a 3,110 acres state forest just south of Ellicottville. A portion of the NCT/FLT runs through this state forest, which opens to views of the Holimont Ski Area. McCarty Hill State Forest is also home to intersecting mountain biking trails that can be used for hiking. Another six miles of the NCT/FLT runs through private property on Poverty Hill, stretching from New York 242 to US 219. Poverty Hill has an elevation of 2,321 feet. During the hike, expect an elevation gain of 1,600. Because it’s on private property, hikers are asked to remain on the trail and respect adjacent landowners. Of course, if you’re a beginner or interested in more moderate hikes, Nannen Arboretum in Ellicottville might be the perfect option. This unique 8-acre gem offers paths through a Ryoanji Temple Stone Garden, the Al Cox Memorial Garden and the Lowe Herb Garden. Open from dawn to dusk daily, the Nannen Arboretum brings visitors through gardens, over bridges and past and provides a lovely view of Ellicottville. Please note: during hunting season, some sections of some of the trails noted above are closed; call your local DEC ofﬁce for more information.

Continued from front page

became a popular dining destination and a business that Pitillo takes great pride in owning and operating. But earlier this year, Pitillo had a lingering thought emerge from his brain, prompting him to explore the possibility of opening a second restaurant and doing what he wanted to do for many years – return home. “Ellicottville is home to me,” Pitillo said. “It just made sense for me personally and professionally to take a chance on a community that has brought so much joy to my life. Some people may think I’m a bit out there to want to own and operate two restaurants, especially when they are about 50 miles apart, but I believe this is meant to be.” Pitillo’s excitement will culminate on Fall Festival weekend with the opening of Villaggio, an establishment that will feature the same relaxed and casual atmosphere that he created at Osteria 166. With the Festival upon us and the annual arrival of winter visitors to the region over the next few months, the debut of Villaggio comes at an ideal time for Pitillo and his staff to make an impression on tourists, as well as year-round residents of the area. “This is incredible and it has taken a lot of hard work, a ton of my time and lots of energy by all sorts of people, but we are thrilled to be opening and think we are going to be a perfect fit in Ellicottville,” said Pitillo. “I’m finishing up some final details for our liquor license and other tasks that come with opening a new restaurant, but when all of that is done, what we will have is a premiere destination for people to visit and feel comfortable and enjoy themselves.” Pitillo and Jeff Cooke, his business partner and executive

chef, purchased the building that formerly housed The Barn in early September and have been busy improving the exterior and renovating the interior, which included a complete kitchen redesign. The end result is an attractive venue to serve what Pitillo describes as “rustic Italian food” in a relaxed family setting. “Our menu will have various Italian dishes that are family recipes – signature items that are what I am going to refer to as ‘Osteria’s Greatest Hits’ because they have proven to be the most popular meals we serve in Buffalo,” said Pitillo. “We will have spaghetti and meatballs and risotto sticks and some other delicious dishes that people who live in and visit Ellicottville are going to love.” Pitillo says Villaggio will have approximately 20 employees, some of whom will be full-time. Among the full-timers is Spencer Murray, who will serve as the restaurant manager, oversee daily operations and serve as Pitillo’s eyes and ears when he is at Osteria 166. “Spencer is awesome at what he does and he is a native Western New Yorker who is moving back to the area,” said Pitillo. “He is a great kid who I’ve worked with in the past, including at a hotel in Massachusetts and a beach bar in New Hampshire. He’s tremendous and is just as excited as I am about taking care of our guests and establishing relationships.” Pitillo said he, his wife Kendra and their daughter Olivia have been fully embraced by the community since their family made the decision to move to Ellicottville and devote their lives to making sure Villaggio succeeds and to giving back to the region as active citizens.

“It’s amazing how smoothly everything has gone for us as a family and how comfortable we are,” said Pitillo. “A lot has changed since I moved away 30 years ago. My wife is a country girl at heart and my daughter is fitting in with what’s happening at school. It has just been really exciting to get established, not only as a new business owner but as a family. We are going to be involved and active and the feedback we’ve gotten has really encouraged us to fully commit to our decision to move here.” Pitillo said the menu and hours of operation may be “tweaked here and there” but right now the plan is to serve dinner daily and offer lunches on weekends, with a Sunday brunch in the works as well as special events and holidaythemed celebrations. “The sky is the limit with what we have going and I think the development and growth happening in Ellicottville is outstanding. That should allow us to fit in, fill a niche and provide a place with a really comfortable vibe,” said Pitillo. “I am very eager to welcome everyone and make it clear that Villaggio will be a place where you will be warmly welcomed as friends and leave as part of our family.” For more information, visit Villaggio on Facebook, or call 699-2199.

Win-Sum Buys BK Site Continued from front page

The plan calls for removal of existing dumpster, freezer and storage space on one side of the building and replacing it with a 20-foot addition that will have a matching rooďŹ&#x201A;ine and gabled window. HV Rental will make creative use of the existing drive-through window; property renters will be able to pull in and pick up their keys without even leaving their cars. Two stone pillars will be erected to anchor the existing exterior sign from the current HV Rental and Realty location. Signs also will be placed on the face of the building. Interior renovations will be made for ofďŹ ces and reception areas. Town Planner Carol Horowitz explained to the Planning Board that the proposed reuse of the building is permitted from the zoning perspective. A special use permit, site plan review, State Environmental Quality Review (SEQR) and public hearing are all required. The board set a public hearing on the matter for its Oct. 26 meeting at 6 p.m. Pending approvals, Holiday Valley hopes to open the new space in early winter. Northrup Development Projects For the next item on the agenda, Northrup changed his Win-Sum hat for his developer hat to request an amendment to a Master Planned Development (MPD) at the former site of Northrup Construction on Rt. 219 near the Tim Hortonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s restaurant. More than a year ago, the planning board approved the MPD for residential and light commercial use. Since then, Northrup has converted one building into an apartment and a space used by his sonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s golf training center. Under the same MDP, Northrup plans to convert another building, which was formerly used as a Northrup Construction maintenance shop, into a four-unit apartment building called â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Yacht Club,â&#x20AC;? so named because, he joked, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s next a pond that is the â&#x20AC;&#x153;largest body of water in Ellicottville.â&#x20AC;? The two-story apartments of about 850 square feet each will include a living/dining/kitchen space with vaulted ceilings plus a bedroom and bath on the ďŹ rst ďŹ&#x201A;oor and a bedroom and bath on the second ďŹ&#x201A;oor. Entry to the apartments will be from the rear via an existing driveway, where parking and a footbridge will be provided for residents and their guests. The building faĂ§ade on the Rt. 219 side will be painted

but will remain essentially the same. However, the existing parking and driveway areas will be removed and replaced with attractive landscaping. The driveway for the golf center and existing apartment will be preserved. Northrup said he hopes to begin the project in late winter/spring 2016. The planning board determined that the project is a â&#x20AC;&#x153;de minimusâ&#x20AC;? (minor) change to the MDP and, as such, did not feel that a public hearing on the matter would be required. However, the board asked for a more accurate site plan that includes a nightsky compliant lighting plan and a calculation of square footage for the parking lot. Northrup also must provide town Engineer Mark Alianello with engineering plans for the pedestrian footbridge, which will span a creek. Northrup again held the ďŹ&#x201A;oor for the next item on the agenda, which was to ask the board to help him determine allowed uses for property across 219 from the site described above. The property, a former energy plant, was purchased by Northrup and developer Peter Krog last year at auction. Several serviceable buildings stand on the seven-acre property, though Northrup said they all need work and each has different characteristics, so their uses could be different. The property is currently zoned for general commercial use. It had been zoned for â&#x20AC;&#x153;light industrial service commercialâ&#x20AC;? use, which was eliminated as the town seeks to create a â&#x20AC;&#x153;gateway to Ellicottvilleâ&#x20AC;? feel for that stretch of 219 to the intersection with Rt. 242 by prohibiting storage of heavy equipment and other â&#x20AC;&#x153;unsightlyâ&#x20AC;? uses. According to Horowitz, zoning code provides several categories of allowable commercial activity, ranging from catering companies to radio stations to mortuaries. OfďŹ ces, art studios, garden stores and other retail businesses also are permitted, however there is no truly comprehensive list. The board asked Horowitz and Alianello to prepare a list of allowable uses and then the board will establish zoning standards and set parameters for them. If it is determined that a zoning amendment is needed, approval from the Town Board, the county and the public would be required For the short term, Northrup asked the board if two contractors who currently lease space in the future apartment building across the street would

Pumpkinville â&#x20AC;˘ Photos by Reyd Martin and Pumpkinville

be permitted to move to one of the existing buildings. One of those, a building contractor, stores equipment. The other is a painting contractor who stains and paints materials indoors. The planning board said it would consider that request during its process. Brewpub, Distillery Next up, Bill Bursee was on the agenda for a pre-application conference to discuss what he needs to do to build a brewpub and distillery at the former location of the Aardvark furniture shop â&#x20AC;&#x201C; also across from Tim Hortonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and in the â&#x20AC;&#x153;gatewayâ&#x20AC;? to Ellicottville area. The ďŹ rst hurdle for the project is to get a federal and then a state permit for a distillery. Bursee has begun the federal process. Horowitz explained that the brewpub portion of the business is already an allowed use in the zoning district, but distilleries are not speciďŹ cally permitted. That will require a special use permit. Burseeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s next step is to follow the application process and submit architectural plans as well as plans for parking, water/ sewer expansion, wastewater disposal, landscaping, lighting, etc. Jurisdiction Issues Kathleen Moriarty, Ellicottvilleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s attorney, was asked by the town board to brief the planning board on a situation regarding a request by a private citizen to make changes to zoning laws in order to avoid being impacted by the noise from a logging operation near her residence. Agriculture and forestry are permitted uses in every zone in Ellicottville. Moriarty explained that some of the residentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s suggestions for changes to the townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s noise ordinance are feasible (e.g. clarifying permitted operating times for construction and logging companies) but others are more difďŹ cult (e.g. requiring equipment to have certain types of mufďŹ&#x201A;ers). The planning board noted that it does not have jurisdiction over equipment, nor does it have a role in enforcing the townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s noise ordinance. Moriarty (as private citizen) also was on the agenda to request a one-year extension to an approved permit for a different distillery she coowns in Ellicottville. She said the federal permit took much longer than expected and has delayed the opening. The next meeting of the Ellicottville Town Planning Board is scheduled for Monday, Oct. 26 at 6 p.m. in the Town/Village Hall.
