Vergennes  church  seeks  power  from  above St.  Peter’s  banks  on  solar  panels By  ANDY  KIRKALDY VERGENNES  —  St.  Peter’s  Catholic  Church  in  Vergennes  will  soon  be  getting  a  direct  connection  to  the  heavens  —  through  87  solar  panels  that  Bristol  Electronics  will  start  installing  on  the  south-Âfacing  roof  of  St.  Peter’s  Parish  Hall  this  month.  After  The  Rev.  Yvon  Royer,  who  serves  both  St.  Peter’s  and  the  St.  Ambrose  Parish  in  Bristol,  learned  that  Rutland’s  St.  Peter’s  Parish  ear- lier  this  year  had  such  an  array  in- stalled,  in  early  August  he  proposed  the  idea  for  the  rooftop  array  to  the  Vergennes  Parish. Royer  said  what  will  be  only  the  second  solar  array  at  a  Vermont  Catholic  parish  rapidly  earned  the  blessing  of  St.  Peter’s  parishioners  and  committees,  the  Roman  Catho- lic  Diocese  of  Burlington,  and  the  Vermont  Public  Service  Board.  “I  went  through  three  commit- tees  at  the  parish,  and  three  different  levels  at  the  diocese,  and  then  the  Public  Service  Board.  So  everybody  recognizes  it  is  to  the  advantage  of  everybody,â€?  Royer  said.  “It  came  to- gether  pretty  quickly.â€? According  to  Royer  and  a  press  release  from  the  Burlington  Dio- cese,  St.  Peter’s  Parish  has  four  ac- counts  with  Green  Mountain  Power  —  one  each  for  the  church,  rectory,  parish  hall  and  the  church’s  thrift  shop  —  with  a  total  annual  electric Â

bill  of  about  $5,300. The  solar  array  to  be  installed  is  designed  to  generate  enough  pow- er  to  offset  that  entire  bill,  and  its  $73,145  list  price  is  being  funded  in  part  by  a  $20,000  grant  from  Green  Mountain  Power.  The  rest  will  come  from  parish  savings. Royer  and  diocese  spokesperson Â
Ellen  Kane  both  noted  that  with  the  grant  St.  Peter’s  Parish  will  be  able  to  pay  off  its  full  investment  in  10  years. “That  really  kind  of  made  it  sweet  for  us,â€?  Royer  said.  Royer  added  the  solar  array  comes  with  a  25-Âyear  guarantee.  “We’re  paying  for  10  years  of  elec-Â
tricity,  and  we’re  getting  25  years  of  electricity,â€?  Royer  said.  “Really  it’s  like  a  60  percent  savings.â€? Kane  said  the  math  adds  up  so  well  that  the  diocese  believes  as  many  as  possible  of  the  Vermont’s  73  Catho- lic  parishes  should  consider  solar  ar- rays,  assuming  they  have  the  space  either  on  land  or  on  rooftops  without Â
compromising  historic  buildings. “We  hope  more  churches  will  do  it,  and  we’re  looking  at  even  the  diocese  doing  it,â€?  Kane  said. Certainly,  Royer  said  St.  Peter’s  SDULVK FRXQFLO ÂżQDQFH FRXQFLO DQG buildings  and  grounds  committee  all  wasted  little  time  signing  off  on  the  concept,  and  neighbors  had  no  objection.   “I  went  to  the  three  neighbors  who  will  be  able  to  see  the  panels  from  their  back  porches,  basically,  and  all  of  them  said  not  a  problem,â€?  he  said.  “They  support  the  project.â€? Royer  said  he  had  “always  won- deredâ€?  about  solar,  and  at  about  the  same  time  he  learned  of  the  Rutland  parish’s  array  he  also  received  a  timely  piece  of  mail. “I  didn’t  know  if  our  building  would  be  appropriate,  facing  in  the  right  direction,  what  electricity  it  would  be  able  to  create.  Bristol  (OHFWURQLFV VHQW XV RQH RI WKHLU Ă€\- ers  so  I  contacted  them,â€?  he  said.  “They  came  and  explained  how  it  works  and  the  process  and  gave  us  a  quote,  and  I  went  from  there.â€?

Political  bomb  hit  pre-Âdebate The  political  bomb  that  dropped  over  the  weekend  did  not,  as  many  expected,  explode  at  Sunday  night’s  second  debate  between  Republican  presidential  candidate  Donald  Trump  and  Democratic  candidate  Hillary  Clinton.  Rather  it  hit  Friday  night  with  the  release  of  a  video  in  which  Trump  speaks  lewdly  and  openly  about  his  boorish  behavior  with  women.  Those  comments,  extensively  covered  by  the  media,  caused  dozens  of  Republican  leaders  to  drop  their  support  of  their  party’s  candidate.  Republican  House  Speaker  Paul  Ryan  publicly  disinvited  Trump  to  a  Saturday  political  event  in  Wisconsin,  and  even  former  presidential  candidate  Sen.  John  McCain,  R-ÂArizona,  ditched  Trump  saying  he  couldn’t  condone  his  behavior  any  longer.

Who wouldn’t love a shiny red 1958 Chevy Corvette convertible? Hugh Bargiel from Vergennes is the lucky owner of this beauty, on display at the recent Better L8 Than Never car show in Bristol last month. Bargiel’s ride was one of the Top 30 picks at this year’s show.

(MS)  —  As  the  seasons  change,  motorists  must  take  steps  to  safeguard  their  vehicles,  especially  when  the  season  changes  from  fall  to  winter.  Each  winter,  many  vehicles  are  subjected  to  sub-Âzero  temperatures,  snowfall  and  icy  roads,  and  such  conditions  can  take  their  toll  on  vehicles  over  time.  Taking  steps  to  prepare  vehicles  for  winter  weather  is  a  vital  step  that  can  make  cars  and  trucks  safer  for  drivers  and  their  passengers. BATTERY Old  batteries  should  be  replaced  before  winter  begins.  Without  a  strong,  properly  functioning  battery,  engines  cannot  turn  over.  Most  batteries  last  between  three  DQG ¿YH \HDUV +RZHYHU H[WUHPH FROG FDQ compromise  batteries,  especially  those  that  have  been  around  awhile.  Batteries  are  made  up  of  acid  and  water,  and  cold  temperatures  can  freeze  the  water,  thereby  affecting  battery  performance.  According  to  AAA’s  Automotive  Research  Center,  at  32  F,  the  average  battery  loses  35  percent  of  its  strength. Newer  batteries  can  be  protected  by  starting  the  vehicle  each  day  to  warm  up  and  recharge  the  battery.  Let  the  car  run  for  at  least  10  PLQXWHV LI \RX FDQQRW WDNH DQ H[WHQGHG GULYH EXTERIOR  MAINTENANCE .HHSLQJ D FDU ZD[HG DQG VHDOHG FDQ KHOS PDLQWDLQ D GXUDEOH H[WHULRU ¿QLVK 7KLV includes  not  only  the  paint,  but  the  rubber  and  YLQ\O SDUWV RI WKH FDU¶V H[WHULRU Winter  is  a  good  time  to  switch  to  a  KHDY\ GXW\ V\QWKHWLF ZD[ WKDW FDQ VKLHOG DJDLQVW ZDWHU DQG URDG VDOWV +LJK TXDOLW\ sealants  can  be  used  on  bumpers,  trim  and  rubber  door  seals  as  added  protection.  Speak  with  an  automotive  retailer  or  even  the  car  dealership  if  you  are  unsure  which  products  will  make  your  car’s  parts  most  durable  for Â
winter  weather. Do  not  stop  washing  your  car  just  because  the  weather  is  cold.  Slushy,  wet  roads  and  snow-Âmelting  salts  can  speed  up  the  formation  of  rust  or  other  decay  on  the  undercarriage  of  the  vehicle.  These  materials  will  need  to  be  periodically  cleaned  off.  Flush  the  underside  of  the  vehicle  whenever  possible,  taking  advantage  of  any  dry,  slightly  warmer  days. TIRE  PRESSURE According  to  the  automotive  retailer  Pep  Boys,  vehicle  tires  lose  a  pound  of  air  pressure  for  every  10-Âdegree  drop  in  temperature.  Many  modern  cars  will  alert  to  changes  in  air  pressure,  and  drivers  should  be  diligent  in  maintaining  the  proper  tire  pressure.  Fuel  economy  as  well  as  handling  ability  can  GHFOLQH ZKHQ WLUHV DUH QRW LQÀDWHG SURSHUO\ 7LUHV FDQ EH UH¿OOHG DW PDQ\ JDV VWDWLRQV IRU little  cost.

Motor Oil Classic cars lined the Bristol Rec Field on Sept. 25 during the 12th annual Better L8 Than Never car show. Cars and trucks, like this classic Chevrolet half-ton pickup were on display for spectators to adore and judges to review. This year’s show attracted 260 vehicles, more than ever before.
How to safely navigate wet roads (MS)  —  Fall  is  a  great  time  of  year  to  hit  the  open  road,  as  fall  foliage  is  colorful  and  provides  a  wonderful  backdrop  for  weekend  getaways,  while  the  mild  temperatures  of  fall  make  this  an  ideal  time  to  enjoy  the  great  outdoors. Though  autumn  is  often  a  mild  time  of  year  with  regard  to  weather,  fall  foliage  enthusiasts  can  still  encounter  adverse  conditions  on  road  trips.  According  to  the  automotive  group  AAA,  wet  pavement  contributes  to  nearly  1.2  PLOOLRQ WUDI¿F DFFLGHQWV HDFK \HDU :KHQ combined  with  fall  leaves,  wet  pavement  poses  an  even  greater  threat  to  drivers  and  their  passengers.  Autumn  and  precipitation  do  not  necessarily  go  hand  in  hand,  but  drivers  should  still  exercise  caution  during  the  fall  road  trip  season  so  they  can  better  handle  roadways  that  are  wet  and  covered  in  fallen  leaves. •  Do  not  use  cruise  control.  Because  fall  foliage  can  be  so  stunning  to  experience,  many  drivers  are  tempted  to  use  the  cruise  control  feature  on  their  automobiles  so  they  can  pay  more  attention  to  the  array  of  colors  at  their  disposal.  But  cruise  control  should  never  be  engaged  when  driving  on  wet  roads  or  roads  that  may  be  covered  in  leaves.  Such  conditions  require  drivers  to  focus  their  undivided  attention  on  the  road  ahead  of  them.  :KHQ GULYHUV VXGGHQO\ encounter  slick  roads,  easing  off  the  accelerator  rather  than  quickly  applying  the  brakes  can  be  the  safest  response,  but  such  a  response  is  impossible  when  cruise  control  is  engaged.
•  Drive  slowly.  Many  fall  road  trippers  are  already  driving  slowly  so  they  can  fully  enjoy  the  fall  scenery.  But  it’s  important  that  drivers  slow  down  even  more  when  encountering  wet  roadways,  as  driving  slow  can  reduce  the  risk  of  a  vehicle  hydroplaning.  :KHQ YHKLFOHV K\GURSODQH WKH\ VOLGH uncontrollably  on  wet  surfaces  as  the  tires  rise  up  on  the  water  covering  the  roads.  AAA  notes  that  tires  on  vehicles  driving  as  slow  as  35  miles  per  hour  can  still  lose  some  contact  with  the  road,  so  drivers  should  maintain  low  speeds  when  driving  on  wet  roads  and  reduce  their  speeds  even  further  during  heavy  rains. •  Resist  the  urge  to  brake  quickly.  :KHQ GULYHUV IHHO WKHPVHOYHV ORVLQJ control,  many  respond  by  braking  quickly.  But  hard  braking  and  quick  turns  can  increase  the  risk  that  a  vehicle  will  hydroplane.  And  even  if  the  vehicle  does  not  hydroplane,  motorists  may  have  a  hard  time  controlling  LW ZKHQ VODPPLQJ RQ WKH EUDNHV :KHQ encountering  wet  roads,  brake  slowly  and  maintain  low  speeds  until  the  roads  dry  off. •  Leave  ample  room  between  vehicles.  Because  braking  quickly  on  wet  roadways  can  increase  the  risk  of  accident,  it’s  important  that  drivers  leave  ample  room  between  their  vehicles  and  the  vehicles  in  front  of  them.  Afford  other  drivers  the  space  to  brake  slowly  just  like  you  hope  the  drivers  behind  you  are  doing.  Avoid  overcrowded  roadways  during  especially  wet  weather. :HW FRQGLWLRQV GXULQJ IDOO URDG trip  season  can  be  dangerous,  and  it’s  important  that  drivers  learn  to  navigate  wet  roadways  safely.  Â

5 things to consider when selecting a car dealership (StatePoint)  —  When  looking  for  their  next  set  of  wheels,  car  shoppers  have  choices  that  extend  beyond  the  vehicle.  The  buying  experience  should  meet  their  needs  and  wants,  too. “Shoppers  should  consider  buying  from  an  independent  dealer,  which  can  open  up  a  world  of  additional  options,â€?  says  Marcus  Dame,  senior  director,  Product  Management  at  Autotrader. +HUH DUH ÂżYH UHDVRQV WR FRQVLGHU DQ independent  dealership: •  Variety:  Independent  dealers  have  greater  ÀH[LELOLW\ WR FDUU\ PRUH PDNHV DQG PRGHOV in  their  inventory,  giving  shoppers  an  ability  to  test  drive  a  wide  variety  of  vehicles  in  one Â

When  shopping  for  a  vehicle,  customers  have  many  options  for  what  to  buy  and  how  to  buy  it.  Before  making  your  decision,  consider  visiting  an  independent  dealer.

Asher and Chris are inseparable. There are other dogs so Asher is never alone, but he is much happier when Dad comes through that door. Asher is in Dad’s lap when we get a thunderstorm, and he is by no means a lap dog! Asher is more than just a dog, he is a family member, and loves to play ball and just be loved. He tries to stay out of trouble but his cohorts like to get into mischief. Asher is never the leader.  Chris Booksa Brandon

Addison  Independent,  Monday,  October  10,  2016  —  PAGE  35
World  Rabies  Day  brings  awareness  to  the  deadly  disease VERMONT  —  World  Rabies  Day  was  Sept.  28  this  year.  This  is  a  day  set  aside  to  raise  awareness  about  the  impact  of  rabies  on  humans  and  animals.  This  year’s  theme  is  “Rabies:  Educate.  Vaccinate.  Elimi- nate.â€?  With  the  aim  of  educating,  the  Vermont  Veterinary  Medical  Association  (VVMA)’s  One  Health  Committee  has  developed  an  info- graphic  giving  basic  facts  about  ra- bies  in  Vermont.  This  infographic  is  available  here  or  may  be  viewed  on  the  VVMA’s  website  (http://vtvets. org)  using  a  link  on  the  home  page  or  under  the  Public  Health  tab. Rabies  is  a  deadly  disease;Íž  once  a  person  or  animal  becomes  sick  with  rabies,  it  is  almost  always  fatal.  This  means  the  best  way  to  combat  rabies  is  with  prevention.  Fortunately,  there  are  very  effective  vaccines.  There  are  special  shots  for  people  who  have  contact  with  a  rabid  animal,  which  will  keep  them  from  getting  sick  as  long  as  the  shots  are  given  right  after Â
the  person  is  exposed  to  rabies.  There  are  also  very  effective  vaccines  to  prevent  pets  and  livestock  from  get- ting  rabies.  These  vaccines  are  given  on  a  regular  basis:  in  Vermont,  every  one  to  three  years  depending  on  the  type  of  animal. Rabies  here  in  the  U.S.  and  rabies  around  the  world  occur  very  differ- ently.  Worldwide,  rabies  kills  more  than  55,000  people  every  year.  Over  half  of  these  victims  are  under  15  years  old,  and  most  occur  because  of  exposure  to  a  rabid  dog.  In  the  U.S.,  only  one  to  two  people  die  from  ra- bies  each  year  and  almost  never  be- cause  of  a  rabid  dog.  There  are  more  than  5,000  cases  of  animal  rabies  reported  annually  in  the  U.S.  Most  of  these  animal  cases  are  in  wildlife,  but  every  year,  80-Â100  dogs  and  more  than  300  cats  develop  rabies. In  Vermont,  we  have  rabies  in  the  wildlife  population,  and  these  rabid  wild  animals  can  expose  not  only  people  and  domestic  animals Â
but  also  other  wildlife  to  rabies.  In  WKH SDVW ÂżYH \HDUV LQ 9HUPRQW ZLOG- life  testing  positive  for  rabies  has  included  119  raccoons,  83  skunks,  26  bats,  11  foxes,  4  woodchucks  and  3  bobcats.  The  scarier  fact  is  that  8  cats,  4  cows,  1  dog,  1  horse  and  1  sheep  have  tested  positive  for  rabies  in  Vermont  during  that  same  period.  Because  so  many  of  us  live  near  domestic  and  wild  animals,  we  all  need  to  be  alert  to  the  possibility  of  rabies. Animals  with  rabies  don’t  always  appear  like  the  classic  picture  of  a  rabid  animal:  snarling,  aggressive  and  foaming  at  the  mouth.  Rabies  affects  the  brain,  so  rabid  animals  behave  bizarrely.  Any  time  you  see  an  animal  that  is  not  behaving  normally,  you  should  be  concerned  about  rabies.  Potentially  rabid  be- havior  includes  raccoons  wandering  into  the  yard  in  broad  daylight,  any  wild  animal  that  doesn’t  seem  afraid  of  people,  cows  or  horses  that  stand Â
extra  calmly  drooling  and  don’t  re- act  to  you  or  noises,  in  addition  to  the  overly  aggressive  animals.  Rabid  bats  may  not  even  seem  to  behave  oddly.  It  is  important  to  teach  kids  to  tell  adults  if  they  see  any  abnormal-Âacting  animals,  par- ticularly  since  unafraid  wildlife  may  be  interpreted  by  a  child  as  being  friendly.  A  doctor  should  be  con- sulted  any  time  anyone  has  contact  with  a  strange  acting  animal.  Since  bat  bites  can  go  undetected,  any  time  a  bat  is  found  in  a  room  with  a  baby  or  a  sleeping  person,  medical  attention  should  be  sought.  Also,  be Â
sure  to  contact  your  animal  control  authority  to  have  them  deal  with  the  potentially  rabid  animal. Rabies  can  be  a  deadly  disease,  but  we  can  all  help  to  eliminate  it.  We  can  protect  our  families  and  our  neighbors  by  making  sure  our  own  animals  are  kept  current  on  their  rabies  shots  and  by  remembering  to  treat  strange  acting  animals  with  care.  For  more  information,  visit  the  VVMA’s  website  at  http://vtvets. org. This  story  was  provided  by  Jill  Skochdopole,  DVM,  of  the  Ryegate  Small  Animal  Hospital.

Homeward  Bound  receives  grant MIDDLEBURY  —  Homeward  Bound,  Addison  County’s  Humane  Society,  recently  received  a  $1,000  grant  from  the  Walter  Cerf  Fund  at  the  Vermont  Community  Founda- tion.  The  grant  is  to  support  the  shel- ter’s  “Pets  Eat,  Tooâ€?  program,  which  provides  food  for  the  pets  of  Meals  on  Wheels  recipients  through  a  part- nership  with  the  Champlain  Valley  Agency  on  Aging. Executive  Director  Jess  Danyow  shares,  “‘Pets  Eat,  Too’  is  a  year- round  program  of  ours  that  ranks  highly  in  our  efforts  to  work  in  the  community.   We  believe  in  this  pro- gram  because  we  believe  that  we  cannot  help  animals  without  help- ing  people.  ‘Pets  Eat,  Too’  is  criti- cal  to  our  mission  because  it  helps  preserve  the  human-Âanimal  bond  and  keep  pets  in  homes.  The  pro- gram  reduces  the  number  of  animals  who  are  at  risk  of  surrender  to  our Â
members.â€? The  “Pets  Eat,  Tooâ€?  program  at  Homeward  Bound  began  in  2009  and  has  been  in  steady  demand  ever  since.  The  number  of  seniors  to  whom  pet  food  was  delivered  increased  by  25  percent  last  year.   Danyow  adds,  “Our  program  enables  these  seniors  to  continue  to  provide  for  their  com- panion  animals,  an  activity  most  of  us  take  for  granted  but  which  is  vital  WR VHOI HVWHHP DQG IHHOLQJ HIÂżFDFLRXV in  the  world.â€? The  Walter  Cerf  Community  Fund  was  established  in  2001  as  a  per- manent  endowment  to  continue  Mr.  Cerf’s  legacy  of  generosity  in  Ad- dison  County  and  beyond.  The  Fund  makes  grants  to  address  charitable  EXECUTIVE  DIRECTOR needs  in  Vermont,  especially  for  the  JESS  DANYOW arts,  education,  historic  preservation  shelter  and  moves  us  toward  our  vi- and  social  services  with  a  focus  on  sion  of  a  world  where  all  companion  grant  making  in  Addison  County  and  animals  are  lifelong,  valued  family  Brandon.

,Q WKH =RQLQJ UHJXODWLRQV We  have  updated  the  Conditional  Use  regulations  by  narrowing  the  list  of  by-Âright  land  uses  and  increasing  the  list  of  conditional  use  activities.   These  changes  are  proposed  not  to  limit  use  of  the  land  but  to  ensure  the  review  of  the  potential  side  effects  development  can  bring  and  to  allow  for  increased  community  participation  within  the  hearing  process.  We  have  added  language  to  better  explain  the  differences  between  a  non-Âconforming  use,  a  non-Âconforming  structure  and  a  non-Âconforming  lot.   We  have  also  revised  the  sections  that  pertain  to  blasting  and  large  scale  earth  moving  by  adding  language  that  states  these  activities  are  permitted  only  in  conjunction  with  building  construction  and  subsequent  landscaping.  ,Q WKH 6XEGLYLVLRQ UHJXODWLRQV We  have  revised  the  open  space  requirements  for  Planned  Unit  Developments  (PUDs).
