It  was  last  year  that  the  Better  Mid-­ dlebury  Partnership  (BMP)  launched  its  “Future  of  Retail  Project.�  The  project  has  several  goals,  including: ‡ (QJDJLQJ WKH SXEOLF WR GHWHU-­ mine  what  retail  needs  are  being  met  in  Middlebury  and  in  what  areas  the  town  has  room  to  expand  its  market.  ‡ 3HUIRUPLQJ D WKRURXJK PDUNHW analysis  of  retail  in  Middlebury,  incor-­ porating  demographic  information  to  ensure  the  context  of  the  town  is  ac-­ curately  captured. ‡ 3UHVHQWLQJ ZKDW RSSRUWXQLWLHV H[-­ ist  for  new  retail  in  conjunction  with  retaining  current  retailers. ‡ 6KDSLQJ VWUDWHJLHV IRU WKH IXWXUH of  retail  in  Middlebury  while  preserv-­ ing  its  character  and  contributing  to  its  sense  of  place. ‡ ([SORULQJ VWUDWHJLHV IRU UHFUXLW-­ ing  retail  stores  that  would  diversify  the  market  and  provide  livable  wages  without  compromising  the  town’s  character.

Survey  (Continued  from  Page  2) to  react  to  on  a  scale  of  one  to  10,  with  10  meaning  “strongly  agree,�  and  one  indicating  strong  disagreement.

Statements  on  the  survey  include,  “downtown  Middlebury  provides  lo-­ cal  residents  good  shopping,�  “ad-­ ditional  retail  development  will  keep  more  customers  in  Middlebury,�  and  “it  is  important  to  have  an  economi-­ cally  vibrant  downtown.�

Muldrow  said  the  survey  will  remain  available  at  http://svy.mk/1gQ867B  until  Friday,  April  25,  at  which  time  the  results  will  be  tabulated  and  pre-­ sented  at  some  upcoming  community  workshops.  The  next  one  is  scheduled  for  Tuesday,  April  29,  at  5:30  p.m.  at  the  Ilsley  Public  Library.  Another  will  be  held  in  late  May.  Plans  call  for  0XOGURZ WR SUHVHQW D ¿QDO UHSRUW LQ late  June  or  July.  That  report  will  in-­ clude  marketing  suggestions  and  other  recommendations  along  with  statisti-­ cal  data.

Muldrow  has  administered  many  economic  development  surveys  dur-­ ing  his  career  and  is  ecstatic  with  the  response  thus  far  to  the  Middlebury  survey. “It  is  absolutely  staggering  how  many  people  have  opted  to  take  this  survey,�  Muldrow  said.  “The  more  respondents  you  have,  the  more  valid  your  data  will  be.�

A  second,  upcoming  survey  will  provide  additional  insights  into  who  is  shopping  in  Middlebury.

At  least  15  Middlebury  merchants  will  spend  a  week  early  next  month  asking  zip  code  information  from  their  customers.  The  results  will  show  where  shoppers  are  coming  from,  which  will  in  turn  give  merchants  a  better  perspective  on  how  to  market  their  respective  businesses.

a  clearer  picture  than  the  alternative  “drive-­time�  analysis  for  what  is  a  fairly  rural  community  and  region.

Muldrow  said  the  results  might  af-­ ¿UP ZKDW PHUFKDQWV KDYH WKRXJKW about  their  customers’  origins,  or  it  might  totally  surprise  them.

Ben  Wilson,  president  of  the  BMP,  is  pleased  with  the  progress  of  the  study. “It’s  going  wonderfully,�  Wilson  said,  adding  he’s  “getting  e-­mails  from  people  who  completed  the  (on-­ line)  survey,  but  have  more  to  say.�

Wilson  is  also  pleased  that  Muld-­ row  has  conducted  focus  groups  with  various  stakeholders  in  the  Middle-­ bury  community.  Those  groups  have  included  storeowners,  restaurateurs,  5HDOWRUV ORGJHUV 0LGGOHEXU\ &ROOHJH VWXGHQWV WRZQ RI¿FLDOV DQG UHSUHVHQ-­ tatives  of  the  town’s  industrial  park.

Editorial

Miller’s  appointment  resets  pledge  to  proceed  with  care In  an  interview  with  Lawrence  Miller  last  week  that  ran  in  Thursday’s  Addison  Independent  that  explored  Miller’s  new  position  as  the  governor’s  senior  advisor  and  Chief  of  Health  Care  Reform,  there  were  two  take-­ home  comments  that  can’t  be  emphasized  enough:  that  the  state  won’t  push  forward  with  a  single-­payer  system  that  puts  the  state’s  economy  in  jeopardy,  and  that  the  state  would  not  go  back  to  the  status  quo  that  saw  health  care  costs  escalate  annually  beyond  the  point  of  sustainability. ³:HœYH JRW WR KDYH D ¿QDQFLQJ PHFKDQLVP WKDWœV D SRVLWLYH IRU WKH economy  of  this  state,  and  not  negative.  And  there  are  clear  triggers  that  the  Green  Mountain  Care  Board  has  to  evaluate  before  we  go  forward.  I’m  going  to  be  completely  straightforward  with  the  governor  about  our  prospects  for  being  successful  with  those  triggers‌  If  we  don’t  see  the  conditions  that  we  believe  will  result  in  a  high  likelihood  of  success,  we  ZLOO VLPSO\ FRQWLQXH WR UH¿QH WKH V\VWHP ZH KDYH QRZ %XW FHUWDLQO\ JRLQJ back  to  the  status  quo  would  not  be  acceptable.  We  have  to  do  the  cost-­ containment  work.  We  have  to  improve  health  care  outcomes,  particularly  for  our  most  vulnerable  population.  We  have  to  address  the  cost-­shift.�

Those  comments  are  reassuring  as  Governor  Shumlin’s  administration  struggles  to  devise  ways  to  pay  for  the  $2  billion  health  care  plan,  leaving  a  business  community  that  is  increasingly  uneasy  about  the  future  tax  burden  they  may  have  to  shoulder.

No  one  thought  making  the  transition  from  the  current  system  to  a  single-­payer  model  would  be  easy,  but  the  early  rhetoric  may  have  gotten  ahead  of  the  hard-­nosed  realities  of  raising  that  amount  through  taxation.  The  rhetoric  of  three  years  ago  included  sweepingly  optimistic  scenarios  RI EXVLQHVVHV ÀRFNLQJ WR WKH VWDWH EHFDXVH WKH H[SHQVLYH VKDFNOHV RI rapidly  increasing  health  care  costs  would  be  gone.  Get  a  handle  on  cost  containment  by  moving  away  from  a  fee-­for-­service  system,  and  presto,  you’ll  save  tens  of  millions  of  dollars  annually.  Those  prospects  remain  promising,  but  getting  there  will  be  risky  and  may  leave  the  state  vulnerable  to  outside  forces;͞  that  is,  to  other  states  enticing  businesses  away  from  Vermont  to  places  where  taxes  will  be  far  lower.

What’s  clear  at  this  point  is  that  the  approximately  $2  billion  that  needs  to  be  raised  in  taxes  (which  is  not  new  money,  because  previously  it  was  being  paid  as  health  care  insurance  premiums,  deductibles  and  co-­pays)  ZLOO SUHVHQW D YHU\ GLI¿FXOW SXEOLF UHODWLRQV FKDOOHQJH IRU WKH VWDWH DV LW DOVR seeks  to  attract  new  businesses  and  keep  existing  ones.

To  raise  that  much  money  a  wide  mix  of  tax  sources  is  a  must,  among  them  will  be  increasing  the  state  income  tax,  which  at  roughly  9  percent  is  already  the  highest  in  the  region  and  among  the  highest  in  the  nation.  Adding  any  percentage  to  the  existing  rate  makes  moving  here  a  tougher  sale.  And  that’s  just  the  income  tax.  The  property  tax  is  likely  to  take  a  bump  as  well,  as  well  as  the  sales  tax  and  any  other  available  taxes.  The  trade-­off,  of  course,  is  that  businesses  would  not  have  to  pay  for  employees’  health  care;͞  but  those  are  not  apple-­to-­apple  comparisons  —  PDNLQJ LW HYHQ PRUH GLI¿FXOW WR DVVHVV WKH DGYDQWDJHV 9HUPRQW ZLOO EH proposing.

Miller’s  appointment  as  Chief  of  Health  Care  Reform  will  test  his  ability  to  calm  the  waters  that  have  been  roiled  by  these  pending  taxes  and  the  absence  of  a  payment  plan  delayed  two  years  by  the  administration.  Much  work  will  also  need  to  be  done  to  reassure  businesses  that  the  steps  forward  will  not  put  them  at  a  greater  disadvantage  than  their  neighbors  in  adjacent  states,  and  that  the  promise  of  health  care  reform  will  create  a  stable  and  productive  business  environment  in  Vermont  in  the  not-­so-­ distant  future.

Making  sure  the  governor  is  also  willing  to  put  health  care  reform  on  hold  if  the  numbers  are  less  than  stellar,  would  also  help  reassure  the  business  community  that  positive,  practical  outcomes  take  precedence  over  ambitious  political  agendas.  Clear  statements  to  that  effect  do  help.

Letters to the Editor Early  education  providers  deserve  right  to  organize I  am  the  president  of  the  Vermont  Federation  of  Nurses  and  Health  Professionals,  and  have  been  an  active  member  of  our  union  since  we  nurses  organized  in  2002.  I  am  writing  in  support  of  S.316,  the  bill  that  would  allow  childcare  and  early  education  providers  the  right  to  orga-­ nize  if  they  so  choose.

S.316  would  allow  childcare  and  early  educators  the  right  to  negoti-­ ate  with  the  state  about  how  they  get  paid  to  care  for  children  in  low-­income  families.  Every  child  has  the  right  to  quality  affordable Â

early  education  and  care.  Forming  a  union  will  help  to  ensure  this  right  is  granted  to  all  Vermont  children,  and  as  we  know  so  well  in  unionized  health  care,  will  improve  the  quality  of  early  education.

We  were  given  the  legal  right  to  organize,  and  we  voted  YES  for  our  union  because  we  knew  it  was  critical  for  our  patients  that  our  SURIHVVLRQDO YRLFHV ZHUH RIÂżFLDOO\ at  the  table.  We  have  made  substan-­ tial  improvements  to  our  working  conditions  and  quality  of  care  at  our  hospital.  Patients  regularly  tell  us Â

how  much  better  things  are  since  we  organized.  We  continue  to  have  strong  relationship  with  our  manag-­ ers,  many  of  who  appreciate  that  their  staff  have  a  strong  voice  in  the  work  that  we  all  are  dedicated  to.

I  have  no  doubt  that  this  will  be  the  case  if  early  educators  and  childcare  providers  form  a  union.  Studies  show  that  having  a  union  increases  quality  and  access  to  early  education.  The  National  Women’s  Law  Center  conducted  a  study  in  2010  that  shows  union  representa-­ (See  Letter,  Page  5)

Over  the  last  decade  in  Vermont,  the  K-­12  student  population  has  de-­ clined  by  more  than  12,000,  and  pro-­ jections  are  for  that  trend  to  continue.  The  costs  of  education  have  risen  by  an  average  of  4.5  percent  annually.  The  numbers  of  adults  serving  a  de-­ creasing  student  population  has  re-­ mained  constant.  Vermont  has  fewer  students  per  teacher  and  administra-­ tor  than  any  other  state  in  the  country.

One  result  is  that  our  educators  are  paid  less  than  in  neighboring  states,  even  though  our  per-­pupil  costs  are  among  the  nation’s  highest.  The  share  of  household  income  devoted  to  support  elementary  and  second-­ ary  education  is  higher  here  than  anywhere.  Leadership  turnover  is  a  concern,  with  few  aspiring  to  princi-­ pal  and  superintendent  positions.  At-­ tracting  candidates  to  run  for  school  ERDUG LV JHWWLQJ PRUH GLI¿FXOW 7KH system  is  often  strained  by  new  but  unavoidable  obligations  that  are  car-­ ried  out  too  many  times  by  small  dis-­ tricts  with  inadequate  resources.

Students of the Week from area High Schools Otter Valley Union High School Mount Abe Union High School Otter Valley Union High School is proud to announce Brianna Hedding as its Student of the Week. Brianna is the daughter of Deb Hedding and Rick Hedding of Pittsford.

Her sister, Lexi, is a 10th-grader at Otter Valley.

Brianna was awarded with academic achievement in Freshman Academy Science. In 10th grade she received an award for consistent effort in college prep U.S. History. In 11th grade she was inducted into the National Honor Society and received the Sage College Student Sage Award Scholarship. Throughout her high school career she has consistently made scholars’ roll, principal’s list or honor roll.

Brianna played JV basketball in grade 9 and played softball in grades 9-11. She has played soccer all four years and has been on varsity since grade 10. She is on the Prom Committee and is involved with Project Graduation. She has participated in the Otter Valley Taxidermy club.

During the summer, Brianna works at Songadeewin, the girls’ camp of Camp Keewaydin, where she does food prep, cleaning and utility work. For the past four years, she has participated in the Walk for Cystic Fibrosis in Burlington. She has also participated in Making Strides Against Breast Cancer in Rutland for the past two years.

She says she is most passionate about the breast cancer walk because both her grandmother and aunt are breast cancer survivors.

During the summer she volunteers at the Brandon Recreation Department’s socBrianna  Hedding FHU FDPS FRDFKLQJ . NLGV 'XULQJ WKH ZHHN VKH YROXQWHHUV VKDGRZV DW 5XWODQG O.V.U.H.S Regional Medical Center in the Outpatient Physical Medicine and Rehab Department.

I just recently was asked to speak to the new National Honor Society inductees about character. I told everyone that character is illustrated by your daily choices. Although failing isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t fun, you learn from it and know that no one is perfect.â&#x20AC;?

After high school Brianna plans to attend college and major in athletic training. She eventually wants to earn her doctorate in physical therapy with a focus on pediatrics.

English teacher Mr. Dwyer says, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Both as a student and as an athlete, Brianna Hedding never settles for anything less than her personal best, and she works very hard to attain that standard.â&#x20AC;?

Mr. Jeskie, social studies teacher, says â&#x20AC;&#x153;Briannaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work ethic is her greatest talent and helps her to her achieve all of her goals.

Mount Abraham Union High School proudly names Calvin Joos â&#x20AC;&#x201D; known by friends as CJ, Cal, or Callie â&#x20AC;&#x201D; as its Student of the Week. Calvin lives in Monkton with his family. His younger sister, Greta, is a freshman at Champlain Valley Union High School.

Calvin earned high or highest honors through the spring of his junior year. He was inducted into the National Honor Society at the end of his junior year, and says he has enjoyed his involvement in this extracurricular. He was selected for academic excellence for three consecutive years starting his freshman year. He doubled up in sciences two years in a row between ninth and 10th grade, and is currently enrolled in AP English.

Calvin participated in Scholarsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Bowl in grades 9 and 10. He played soccer throughout his six years at Mount Abe. He says winning the state championship soccer game in 2013 was something he and all of his friends had on their minds since seventh grade.

Last summer Calvin worked at the Village Creeme Stand in Bristol. This summer he is going to be food-running and waiting tables at the Hinesburgh Public House. He has volunteered time with the Monkton Maples 4-H Club for two years. Club members spend their time at the Bristol Food Shelf and the Recycling Center in Monkton, and have been known to help out at Maryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Calvin  Joos Restaurant in Bristol when it comes time to host the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Holiday Community Dinner.â&#x20AC;? He says he was especially proud to be a Monkton Maple when the M.A.U.H.S.

Being concerned with making other people happy will only get you so far; you are the only one that is there in the end.

It’s against the law to discriminate when advertising housing related activities.

Particularly on sites like Craigslist.

And it’s easier to break the law than you might think. You can’t say “no children” or “adults only.”

There is lots you can’t say. The federal government is watching for such discrimination.

Let us help you sift through the complexities of the Fair Housing Law. Stay legal. Stay on the right side of the nation’s Fair Housing Law. Call the Addison Independent at (802) 388-­4944.
