Nelson,  of  Vermont  Integrated  Architecture  in  Middlebury,  pre-­ sented  a  conceptual  design  that  would  rehabilitate  and  restore  the  historic  1897  building,  and  add  a  large  garage  bay  building  and  a  connector  between  the  two  build-­ ings.  That  would  bring  the  total  square  footage  of  the  facility  from  1,225  for  the  current  building  to  7,337.  Including  two  existing  build-­ ings  owned  by  the  department,  that  would  result  in  just  under  10,000  square  feet  of  operating  space.

FCS  will  also  save  some  money  because  teacher  Alana  Lilly  an-­ nounced  she  would  accept  an  early  retirement  package  after  three  de-­ cades  at  the  school. ACS  DETAILS  On  Jan.  8  the  ACS  board  adopted  a  $1,161,042  plan  that  would  drop  spending  from  the  current  level  by  about  $66,600.   Like  the  VUES  board,  the  ACS  board  on  Jan.  8  also  added  a  $20,000  capital  improvement  fund  article.  Such  an  article  had  been  typical  in  past  years.  The  proposed  spending  plan  will  continue  to  avoid  the  state  penalties  for  high  per-­pupil  spending  that  had  added  to  some  ACS  budgets  before  WKH FXUUHQW DFDGHPLF \HDU RIÂżFLDOV said.  Two  personnel  changes  account  for  most  of  the  savings:  Principal  Wayne  Howe’s  expected  move  to  be-­ come  ANwSU’s  part-­time  assistant  superintendent,  and  a  cutback  in  the  hours  of  the  ACS  math  intervention-­ ist.  O’Brien  said  the  ANwSU  board  LV H[SHFWHG RQ -DQ WR PDNH ÂżQDO Howe’s  appointment  as  the  ANwSU  assistant  superintendent,  effective  this  summer.  That  job  will  have  the  equivalent  of  two  days  a  week  of  responsibility  and  reduce  Howe’s  role  at  ACS  to  a  three-­day-­a-­week  responsibility  â€”  with  resulting  sav-­ ings  to  the  school’s  budget.  Contracted  raises  and  higher  health  insurance  costs  are  driving  spending  up,  and  the  board  is  also  budgeting  a  $7,000  raise  for  administrative  assis-­ tant  Susie  Hodsden,  who  will  assume  greater  responsibilities  when  Howe  is  not  in  the  building.  TAX  IMPACTS With  the  Jan.  14  adoption  of  a  pro-­ posed  $9.5  million  Vergennes  Union  High  School  budget,  estimates  for  Addison  Northwest  Supervisory  Union  school  tax  rates  were  also  re-­ leased  and  show  a  range  of  increases  IURP DERXW WR FHQWV LQ WKH ÂżYH towns.  The  estimates  assume  the  four  ANwSU  budgets  pass  as  proposed  and  that  lawmakers  make  no  sur-­

A DDIS ON Â Â INDE P E NDEN T

Editorial Child  care  proposal  gets  most  from  limited  state  funding

One  of  Gov.  Shumlin’s  most  far-­reaching,  and  controversial,  proposals  in  his  State-­of-­the-­State  Address  was  suggesting  the  state  divert  $16.7  million  from  a  tax  credit  for  low-­income  Vermonters  to  fund  a  doubling  of  child  care  subsidies  for  low-­income  residents.  Critics  of  the  proposal  have  fallen  back  on  an  old  refrain:  that  it  doesn’t  make  sense  to  rob  Peter  to  pay  Paul.  Why  reduce  one  subsidy  that  helps  Ver-­ mont’s  poor,  and  allocate  those  same  funds  into  another  program?  Department  of  Children  and  Families  Commissioner  David  Yacovone  has  a  clear  response:  It’s  a  bold  and  strategic  move,  he  has  said,  that  was  a  long  overdue  change  in  policy  that  â€œprioritizes  our  resources.â€? Obviously,  if  government  had  all  the  money  it  needed,  the  preferred  course  of  action  would  be  to  fund  both  programs.  But,  as  the  Secretary  of  the  Agen-­ cy  of  Human  Resources  Doug  Racine  said  in  a  story  last  week  in  VTDigger,  WKH VWDWH GRHVQÂśW KDYH DQ LQÂżQLWH DPRXQW RI PRQH\ WR ZRUN ZLWK DQG KDV WR constantly  reallocate  tax  resources  in  the  most  effective  way.

By  JOHN  FLOWERS MIDDLEURY  â€”  The  Addison  Central  Supervisory  Union  super intendent  will  soon  see  a  reduc tion  in  evening  meetings,  thanks  to  a  new  schedule  endorsed  by  the  ACSU  board  on  Jan.  16. The  superintendent  is  currently  accountable  to  nine  boards,  includ ing  one  each  representing  the  seven  elementary  schools  within  WKH $&68 SOXV WKH 8' ERDUG that  oversees  Middlebury  Union  middle  and  high  schools,  and  the  ACSU  board.  This  has  made  for  a  rigorous  meeting  schedule  that  ACSU  directors  acknowledge  is  hampering  current  efforts  to  recruit  a  new  superintendent  (see  related  story).

But  some  relief  is  apparently  RQ WKH ZD\ 9LFNL :HOOV GLUHF tor  of  student  services  for  the  ACSU,  presented  a  plan  calling  for  the  superintendent  to  make  comprehensive  presentations  to  the  district’s  executive  committee  when  it  meets  every  other  month,  in  lieu  of  meeting  with  individual  school  boards  during  that  month.  The  executive  committee  is  made  up  of  the  chairpersons  of  all  the  ACSU  boards.  It  will  be  up  to  these  chairpersons  to  relay  the  super intendent’s  information  to  their  respective  colleagues  on  the  indi vidual  boards.  This  new  system  is  expected  to  relieve  the  superin tendent  of  at  least  seven  meetings  during  the  month  in  which  the Â

executive  committee  gathers.  The  superintendent  (or  his/her  desig nee)  will  still  meet  with  individual  boards  during  months  in  which  there  is  not  an  executive  board  meeting. And  further  streamlining  of  meetings  could  occur  a  year  or  two  down  the  road.  The  ACSU  Study  Committee  wants  to  ask  local  voters  if  they  would  like  to  take  steps  under  a  new  state  law  that  could,  among  other  things,  lead  to  some  consolidation  of  the  super visory  union’s  governance  struc ture.  The  Addison  Independent  will  report  more  in  depth  on  this  proposal  in  this  Thursday’s  issue.

PETS IN NEED HOMEWARD BOUND ANIMAL WELFARE CENTER Oooaah  â€“  just  look  at  that  face.  A  handsome  boy  and  such  a  sweetheart!  I’m  Hooch,  one  of  the  several  wonderful  dogs  here  at  the  shelter.    The  staff  has  come  to  know  me  as  a  gentle  big  teddy  bear.  I’m  a  large  mix  breed,  and  I’m  senior  in  age.  I  greet  everyone  with  a  smile  and  twinkle  in  my  eye!  I  adore  people  and  I  love  getting  outside  for  my  daily  walks  and  exercise  even  though  I  don’t  move  too  fast!  Because  of  my  age,  I  will  require  frequent  trips  outside,  and  I  have  a  small  growth  on  my  right  eye  that  would  be  more  traumatic  to  be  removed.  It  causes  me  no  pain  and  I  see  just  great,  especially  when  I’m  seeking  out  your  hand  to  pet  me.  ,ÂśP D QLFH TXLHW PHOORZ ROG PDQ ZLWK ORWV RI ORYH WR JLYH , GR ÂżQH with  other  dogs  and  I  like  people  of  all  ages. ,ÂśYH KDG D URXJK VWDUW DW ÂżUVW EXW DP VR GHVHUYLQJ RI D ORYLQJ and  trusting  home.  Come  meet  me  today  and  see  what  a  special  boy  I  am! Â

Wow!  Doesn’t  get  much  cuter  than  that,  right?  My  name  is  Duke,  and  I’m  sweet,  smart,  sensitive  and  extremely  loving.  Things  I  greatly  enjoy  are  good  chew  bones,  long  car  rides,  stuffed  dog  toys  and  being  by  your  side.  I’m  extremely  loyal,  aim  to  please,  and  love  to  snuggle  in  bed.  Things  that  I  need  time  to  get  used  to  include  loud  noises,  strangers,  and  quick  movements.  I  need  patience  in  meeting  new  people  and  establishing  trust.  I  have  lived  with  children  before,  but  because  of  my  energy,  I  do  best  with  ones  over  the  age  of  10  years  old.  I  don’t  care  for  the  company  of  other  dogs.  I  need  to  be  on  a  leash  at  all  time  or  in  a  fenced  yard. The  staff  has  come  to  know  me  as  a  super  sweet  and  loving  boy.  I  really,  really  just  love  being  with  people.  My  ideal  home  is  one  where  I  get  several  walks  a  day  and  be  with  my  person  for  the  majority  of  the  time.  Could  this  be  you?

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.
