50,000 Fans Gather For Griffey-Piazza Induction

Ian Austin/The Freeman’s Journal

It was fans as far as the eye could see Sunday afternoon, July 24, as an estimated 50,000 fans gathered in the field next to the Clark Sports Center for the 76th annual Baseball Hall of Fame Induction of Ken Griffey Jr. and Mike Piazza.

Second Largest Turnout Ties Ryan, Brett, Yount In 1999, But Ripken-Gwynn’s 82,000 in 2007 Still Biggest SECOND/From A1 zard, Cooperstown Chamber of Commerce executive director.

“The merchants I’ve been talking to have all classified it as a success.”

The biggest induction was in 2007, when an estimated 82,000 descended on Cooperstown to welcome Cal Ripken Jr. and Tony Gywnn into the hallowed hall.

The 1999 induction of Nolan Ryan, George Brett and Robin Yount also brought in 50,000 visitors, and 2014’s class, featuring players Greg Maddux, Tom Glavine and Frank Thomas, as well as managers Bobby Cox, Joe Torre and Tony La Russa, brought 48,000 to town.

And last year, 45,000 took their place on the Clark Sports Center lawn to cheer on Pedro Martinez, Randy Johnson, Craig Biggio and John Smoltz.

“I saw a lot of Mets and Mariners jerseys,” said Shestakofsky.

“And a good showing of Cincinnati Reds too. All three were well represented.”

Vinnie Russo, owner of Mickey’s Place at Main and Pioneer, has a computer system that allows him to compare sales hour by hour from year to year – saw that his Sunday business, measured in dollars, outpaced the record-making Ripken Jr.-Gwynn Sunday of 2007, he said. Some hours on Saturday achieved 88 percent of the 2007 record.

The ceremony over, Hall of Fame Chairman Jane Forbes Clark presents the two latest Inductees, Mike Piazza, left, and Ken Griffey Jr. to the cheering fans.

And 50,000 people need a lot of beds, so the Chamber sent people as far as Turning Stone Casino in Verona to lay their heads. “We had a waiting list,” said Hazzard.

“We were still filling hotel rooms at the last minute.”

With Piazza’s induction as a Met, some just made it a day trip.

“A lot of the Mets fans came up for the day, but the Griffey fans stayed the weekend,” said Haz-

zard. But we want the fans from nearby to experience Cooperstown for more than just Induction.”

Meanwhile, at the Clark Sports Center field, the rule, “There’s no crying in baseball,” was suspended. “New rule: You’re allowed to cry on the day you get inducted,” said Shestakofsky. “The ceremony was an emotional couple of hours!”

2016 inductees Mike Piazza and

Ken Griffey Jr. both teared up as they spoke about their fathers in their speeches: • “My father’s faith in me, often greater than my own, is the single most important factor of me being inducted into this Hall of Fame,” said Piazza. “Thank you, Dad.” • “My dad taught me how to play this game,” said Griffey, after accepting a tissue from someone nearby. “But more importantly, he

taught me how to be a man.”

“I think it really sunk for all of us what it means to be part of this ceremony,” said Shestakofsky.

“It’s emotional for the inductees, but also for the fans who come in and play such a role in sending these guys to immortality.”

Griffey also took his tour of the Baseball Hall of Fame, something he declined to do before Induction weekend, citing a desire to see it with his family.

“He toured for about two hours on Friday,” said Shestakofsky.

“He really enjoyed looking at the history and sharing stories of his connections to different players, as well as the stories of his own artifacts. I know he was glad to share it with his family.”

But despite a successful weekend, there were issues; including concern about the Hall of Fame’s placement of metal barricades along Main Street. People didn’t know to whom they should voice those concerns, Russo told the Village Board at its monthly meeting Monday, June 25.

He proposed the trustees create an “entity” to engage in a post mortem with the Hall while “it is fresh in our minds,” and to confer with Hall planners leading up to future Inductions.

Mayor Jeff Katz asked Trustee Cindy Falk, as chair of the Economic Development Committee, to lay the groundwork for formation of such an entity in August.

U.S., State Homeland Security Agents, Troopers, Deputies, Local Police Here SECURITY/From A1 have intentionally changed their appearance, make overseas phone calls, pay with cash or deny housekeeping staff access to the room.

“When I was coming into induction, I saw several Homeland Security SUVs,” said Jim Vrooman. “I thought to myself, ‘Whoa, this is serious.’ It spooked me. It makes you realize we live in a different world.”

At Bassett Hospital, as many as 10 additional trauma and emergency surgeons were on call.

“The trauma team worked closely with the hospital’s incident command team to be proactively prepared for an emergency, such as a mass casualty event, given the size of the crowd for the 2016 HOF inductions,” said Bassett spokesperson Karen Huxtable, in an e-mail statement. “When crowds and traffic swell as they do, a sudden influx of people to our emergency department is very possible whether from a traffic accident, the summer’s heat or something else.”

But otherwise, the weekend went off without a hitch. “There weren’t any incidents,” said Devlin. “It was a large crowd, but that’s normal for us.

“It was a fine weekend,” said Covert. “It was busy, but there weren’t any problems.”

“The state police had a good traffic plan,” said Baum. “I’m a Boy Scout Leader and my troop was collecting bottles and cans, so I went in and out four times. Last year, I was frustrated at the traffic, but this time, I was really impressed by the ability to get in and out.”

“The police did a good job,” said Vrooman. “I felt very safe.”

$10 Million Grant Says Oneonta, Otsego Now On Right Track

E

conomic development, Otsego County has learned, is not easy. Quite the opposite. From our collective experience since state Sen. Jim Seward’s first “Seward Summit” March 15, 2012, at The Otesaga, we’ve learned it’s excruciatingly hard.

What babes in the woods we were, tsk-tsking when Senator Seward suggested that, just perhaps, we weren’t quite as focused on economic development as other of the nine counties in his 51st Senate District.

We’ve learned so much.

Anyone who still believed we knew what we were doing – and was paying attention – had the scales fall from his or her eyes at the second “Seward Summit” on Nov. 14, 2014, at Foothills.

There, Dick Sheehy, manager/ site selection for CH2Mhill, the industrial recruitment firm, told the assembled public officials and businesspeople, “I’m glad I wasn’t here with a client, because you’d be off the list.”

It was shocking. It was nobody’s fault that economic-development efforts were yielding so little. Despite earnest efforts, we just didn’t know what we were doing.

• Responding to Sheehy that day, Senator Seward made a pledge: “We will be ready. We will get ready.” And since then he has been the most steadfast advocate of the steps necessary to make economic development happen.

The need for more business

activity isn’t theoretical. Since 2010 alone, 2,000 people have left Otsego County.

Last fall, Oneonta was identified as one of the 10 poorest Upstate cities. Oneonta! Once home to three dozen IBM millionaires. Oneonta, the once-proud and prospering maintenance center of the mighty D&H. Seward got to work, bringing together the county IDA (since renamed Otsego Now), Oneonta then-Mayor Dick Miller and Cooperstown Mayor Jeff Katz, the business group Citizen Voices,

the chambers of commerce, the colleges, even county Board Chair Kathy Clark, R-Otego.

For those who kept the faith, Tuesday, July 19, was a happy Judgment Day, as Gov. Andrew Cuomo sent word that the City of Oneonta, in competition with Amsterdam, Gloversville, even mighty Utica, would receive a $10 million Downtown Redevelopment Initiative grant – all of it – to expedite creation of a “food hub” and downtown entertainment district on Market Street, and to revitalize the D&H yards for com-

merce and light manufacturing.

(Another $18 million, for a bridge to the yards, is hoped for from the federal DOT by year’s end.)

Manna from heaven, indeed.

• Accident? No way.

With Senator Seward’s assistance, the IDA recruited Sandy Mathes, Greene County’s eminently successful economic developer, and he sure-footedly guided us through a brambled path toward success. Sheehy said we lacked a “single point of contact” and “shovel-ready sites,” and Mathes is creating both.

At Otsego Now’s initiative, Cooperstown, Richfield Springs and Oneonta are updating decades-old comprehensive plans to ensure projects are based on the public’s wishes. Mathes strengthened ties with the Mohawk Valley Economic Development Region, the conduit for state funding.

He – and Oneonta City Hall, independently but in tandem – brought in nationally known consultants – “food hub” expert Karen Karp and the LA Group, advisers to downtowns – who were soon at work, devising plans and doing market studies to ensure ideas are sound and financially viable.

Oneonta, with its new city-manager form of government, pursued grants it hadn’t been aware of before. The first, Mike Long, embraced programs to redo Wilber and Neahwa parks and to launch the “streetscape” project now underway. The second, Martin

Murphy, hired Community Development Director Bill Kerbin, who at one point had 17 grant applications in the works.

Before Mayor Miller’s untimely passing, he saw the completion of $20 million Hillside Commons, the largest addition to the city’s tax base in a half-century. He and Long pursued the Housing Visions senior and market-rate housing, an $18 million project now under construction.

• The new mayor, Gary Herzig, a longtime Planning Commission member, wrapped his brain around all of this, and summed it up in a DRI application with the endearing title, “Authentically Oneonta.”

It described a community on the go, a community seizing opportunity, determined to chart a course back to success. Oneonta is at a “tipping point,” Herzig said.

That must have resonated with Andrew Cuomo himself.

It’s been observed that the Cuomo Administration is doing more for Upstate New York than any administration in decades, with the Buffalo Billion, the nano-corridor, the Farm Brewery Act of 2012 and so much more.

But the governor isn’t going to throw good money after bad.

Communities need to show they can follow through, as Oneonta is doing, and as Mathes and his Otsego Now board are striving to do countywide.

It’s happening. Let’s stay the course. Even better, let’s redouble our efforts.

t seems that everyone is in agreement that, as a nation, we must find and move to using renewable sources of reliable energy.

That is true for two reasons.

First, fossil fuels are not renewable – that means we will run out of them at some point. Second, it is argued that burning fossil fuels contributes to climate change.

The front runner of the renewable options appears to be solar power. We know

there is an abundant supply. The obvious question arises with regards to how to capture it during daylight hours and store it for use at night when the sun goes down.

We have made considerable progress with battery technology in being able to capture the sun’s energy during daylight and converting it to a form we can use to heat our homes and power our appliances. We’re less far along with being able to store it for night-time use. Thus we still need a “bridge” to cover the night-time hours.

Those are, however, the obvious questions. Have

we learned, based upon our mistakes of the past, to seek answers to the less obvious questions. Think back to the days when PCBs were thought to be a panacea for improving worker safety by reducing the likelihood of electrical fires in transformers. They were cheap to manufacture and they

worked very well for their intended purpose.

However, we forgot to consider their persistence and potential impact to the environment. GE has spent well over $2 billion addressing those questions. Had they asked those questions up-front, they might have selected another product

with less unanticipated costs.

What are the unanswered questions surrounding the use of solar energy? There are many. How do we get the heavy metals, mainly Lithium, used to manufacture the batteries? They must be mined and transported to a manufacturing

site – both of which create environmental impacts.

Manufacturing the batteries requires energy and has related environmental impacts – as do the manufacturing of the other components used in a solar panel.

Want Your Curb Painted Yellow?

Let’s Share Cost, Help Charities To the Editor, I am sure by now the Cooperstown residents have read and/or heard about the Village of Cooperstown’s decision to have residents apply for a free permit to have a painted yellow curb by their driveway.

If you are approved by DPW Superintendent Brian Clancy and he has “marked” your curb to be painted yellow you have two choices: 1. You can pay $100 for the Village of Cooperstown to do the work OR 2. You may purchase the paint and needed supplies and do the work yourself.

The morning of July 15, I purchased the supplies needed: one gallon of paint (the approved paint comes only in a gallon can), one paint brush, and a roll of painters tape.

The cost of my purchases came

close to $50. I came home and within about 10 minutes I had a yellow curb by my driveway. And I still have a gallon of yellow curb paint left.

I will give residents a 3rd choice because I have a gallon of yellow required paint needed and other supplies.

I am willing to come to your Cooperstown residence and paint a yellow curb, IF Brian Clancy approves your permit and he has “marked the curb” to be painted.

Your cost will be $10 per curb. IF I get five requests I break even. Any requests beyond the five I will divide and donate to the Cooperstown Food Bank and the Susquehanna Animal Shelter.

Just let me know if you have an approved curb to be painted yellow. My phone number is in the book.

Clinton Is No Prize, But Trump, Disaster To The Editor: Of course Hillary Clinton is no prize, no prize whatsoever. Considering the baggage she carries, one wonders again and again just how and why she is the Democratic nominee. She has a huge hill to climb in the days and months ahead.

But Donald Trump projects disaster.

If he loses, as his Republican constituents who refused to attend “his” convention underscored (i.e.

Lindsay Graham, John McCain, John Kasich, George and Jeb Bush, and so many, many others) it will be a disaster for the Republican Party as we knew it. Indeed perhaps it already is.

If he wins it will spell disaster for this country as we knew it.

KENNETH J. KAVANAGH Cooperstown

CVS Fine, But Cooperstown Motel Site Can Be So Much More To the Editor: The CVS move to the Cooperstown Motel area is correct.

But a better policy would be having the village buy the land and build a tall multi-use building rented to CVS on two lower floors only.

On the upper floors: rented small

studios, a new children’s library of classics from Dover Books, and luxury housing on the top floor. All parking should be in the back.

Instead, what we are likely to get is another ugly building and ugly parking lot, in Cooperstown’s least attractive and least diverse area.

And, so far, because of anti-retail sentiments among our provincial rulers, there are no plans to covert the CVS building to a diverse location for non-baseball arts, books, antiques and collectibles.

Congregations From Around County To Co-Sponsor ‘Jesus And Race’ Forum Dear Friends and Neighbors, We are heartbroken once again to read news of innocent people shot while simply living their lives, while driving in the car with their family, while protecting peaceful protestors. Minnesota, Baton Rouge, and Dallas are the most recent incidents to grab our attention. These events are occurring too frequently.

As people of faith who believe a loving God created this world for a

good purpose, let us say clearly we do not believe hatred and violence are in any way a part of God’s vision for us, or for the planet.

We invite our congregations and all who wish for an end to violence and hatred to join us in prayer and in action: prayer, because we are people of faith; and action, because we believe deep prayer leads to faithful action.

First, please join us in praying – in offering prayers for healing,

Centuries ago, the prophet Micah pondered the question, “What does the Lord require of you?”

The response he offers is simple: “…to do justice, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with God.” We call on our congregations and our communities to join us as we seek to embody God’s love and respect for all persons.

Please join us at 7 p.m., Sunday,

Aug. 7 at the First Presbyterian Church of Cooperstown for a program entitled “Jesus and Race.”

We will examine artwork from around the world and throughout history, and engage in conversation about portrayals of Jesus from a variety of cultural settings.

Our intention is to begin dialogue, and move toward action.

Wilkes-Barre Penn. – In a previous edition we mentioned that a horse thief had just been shot on the on the mountain. The particulars follow: Two persons were found to be concerned. One was taken, and two horses which had been stolen. The other, by the name of Miller, had succeeded keeping out of the way of the officers of justice. A reward was offered, which induced several persons to attempt securing him. A person on horseback found the thief traveling on foot with a gun; and, as he personally knew the fellow, he offered him his hand. It was received and, at the same moment, the thief was declared his prisoner – who, suddenly starting, pulled the man from his horse and, stepping back, presented his gun as if he meant to shoot him. The man immediately knocked the gun from the hands of the thief who instantly fled. The man took up the gun, and called to the thief to stop.

However, he continued to run and at the distance of sixty paces, received the ball in his head. He died a few hours afterwards and his remains have been buried at Bear Creek.

The report of the inquest was justifiable homicide.

Local – “Cooperstown is very gay this summer,” writes the correspondent of a city paper. The people here find quiet enjoyment, but not a great deal of gayety. The lake, the drives, the fine bracing and health-giving air are the great attractions of Cooperstown.”

On the porch of the Hotel Fenimore we saw on Tuesday last one of the finest specimens of those usually preserved parts of the American Elk ever seen in Cooperstown. The animal was shot last spring in the Rocky Mountains, in that part of Colorado known as North Park, its antlers each measuring over six feet, with a spread of over three feet at the points. Each antler has six perfect branches. It is now the property of Mr. E.F. Beadle, being a present from his son-in-law, E.L. Raymond of Denver, Colorado.

“A Dress Rehearsal” is the title of a neat little Opera in two acts, which will be brought out by the ladies of Cooperstown at Village Hall on Tuesday evening, August 18. There are thirteen ladies in the cast, with a chorus of over thirty voices. It promises to be one of the best entertainments of the season.

Solar Panels Also Source Of Pollution ZAGATA/From A4 within them once the panels have reached the end of the productive live-span – about 20 years? How and where will the toxic heavy metals be disposed and who will pay for it? It is the latter question that is plaguing local landowners who are being asked as this is written to lease 20 acres or more, the number of acres of glass-covered solar panels it takes to be economically attractive, to solar energy companies that want to build solar-panel “farms” on their property.

Once the Mike energy is capZagata tured in the solar panels, how does it reach the electric “grid” that transports the energy to the end user? That requires construction and with that comes environmental impacts.

How much land will be needed to house the solar farms that will capture the solar energy? For a city like Oneonta with about 10,000 homes, it will require about 400 acres of forest or croplands be converted to solar farms. It takes about 40 acres to supply 1,000 homes. There are 322 million people in the US. Thus, if the calculation held true across the country, it would take about 13 million acres of solar farms to supply them with energy. That’s a lot of open space, wildlife habitat, farmland and forestland and, even if it was reduced due to high-rise apartments, clearly illustrates there is no free “environmental” lunch when it comes to energy – renewable or non-renewable fossil fuels.

Solar energy may well prove, after an in-depth and honest debate, to be the right choice for our nation. However, before coming to that conclusion we need to have that informed debate.

Traffic Count May Slow CVS As Trustees Object CVS/From A1 the July meeting on Monday the 25th. “Everything else can be fixed,” he said of the company’s plans. “Traffic cannot be fixed.”

That afternoon, the trustees had received an e-mail from CVS’ traffic engineer, Creighton Manning, outlining the company’s concept of what a traffic study should entail around the former Cooperstown Motel site, one of the busiest intersections in the village.

The e-mail, from Wendy C. Holsberger, associate, said the company’s study would track traffic 3-6 p.m. weekdays and 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturdays, which it considers the “peak.”

However, in discussion Monday, the trustees observed that may be the company’s peak business, but it’s not the peak of village activity. “They’re focusing on ‘their,’” said Trustee Lou Allstadt. “’Their’ being 90 cars during peak” at the drive-thru window.

Dean said the study should be from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., to catch peak employee and patient traffic to and from Bassett Hospital, which is at the end of Beaver Street.

Trustee Cindy Falk, who has children in Cooperstown schools, said the survey should reflect peak traffic to and from the nearby elementary and high schools.

She suggested the study’s traffic counts be done on Tuesdays, the busiest day in the village, encompass more intersections than just the four proposed by CVS. And, she said it should take into account pedestrian traffic.

Trustee Ellen Tillapaugh Kuch said the study must be done before mid-August; after that, Cooperstown Dreams Park traffic begins

Within days of making the winning bid for the former Cooperstown Motel, CVS Health’s developer, Zaremba Group, Lakewood, Ohio, had a plan to put a drive-thru pharmacy at Chestnut and Beaver submitted to Village Hall.

to decline, so counts would not reflect the 100-day summertime traffic crunch.

Said Trustee Richard Sternberg, “I’ll defer to the maximum you guys want.”

Other than the traffic issue, CVS’ plan is moving forward. At the July meeting, the trustees unanimously supported a “negative declaration” as defined by the state’s Environmental Quality Review Act, meaning they see no impact that would stall the project.

They also scheduled a special meeting for 6 p.m.

Friday, Aug. 12, for a public hearing on whether to approve a special-permit re-

quired for any project larger than 3,000 square feet. (The current CVS at 100 Main St. is 7,000-8,000 square feet.

“We would like to be as expeditious as possible, at the same time being very thoughtful,” said Mayor Jeff Katz.

If the trustees approve the special permit, the village Planning Board must still conduct a site plan review, which would include a traffic assessment, and the H-PARB (the Historic Preservation & Architectural Review Board) would determine how the new building fits into the village’s historic ambience.

The trustees had convened a special meeting on the SEQRA review Wednesday, July 20, where Todd Hamula, a senior development manager with CVS’ developer, the Zaremba Group of Lakewood, Ohio, appeared to answer trustee questions and address concerns.

“There was a lively discussion on why they thought there would be minimal change in traffic, where we think there will be more than minimal change,” said Mayor Katz. Concern was also voiced about on-site propane storage and access to the village’s Badger Park, Thinking of Remodeling?

However, he said, the plans have already been adjusted to conform to village ordinances – for instance, the 40-foot-tall interior-lit sign is gone. And trustees were told the developers were scouting around town, looking at buildings – like Bassett’s Fieldstone Building – to model their new pharmacy after.

“The building is not even as tall as the motel,” said Katz. “They are award of our lighting concerns. They are aware of our sign law.

THE FREEMAN’S JOURNAL A7

A.G. Schneiderman: In Age Of Donald Trump, ‘Crucible’ Resonates

CRUCIBLE/From A1 Faye Gay, a high-powered New York lawyer (and, this fall, divinity student at Yale as well).

It was village vs. town, people with less vs. people with more, said Gay. Lacking any institutional means of achieving change, the dissatisfaction erupted in conspiracy theories and the witch trials focused on “the other,” usually newcomers and single older women, including one accused of “feeding her blood to toads.”

It was Saturday, July 23, and Gay was briefing a Glimmerglass Festival audience there to hear state Karli Cadel/The Glimmerglass Festival Attorney General Eric SchFaye Gay emcees state Attorney General Eric Schneiderman’s Saturday, neiderman, on the relevance July 23, appearance at the Glimmerglass Festival. of Arthur Miller’s “The Crucible,” premiering in opera

form that evening.

(In tandem, the Glimmer Globe Theatre is producing Miller’s original play at The Fenimore Art Museum throughout the summer.)

When Schneiderman took the stage to applause, he recounted modern examples of the witch-trial dynamic: blaming outsiders for general dissatisfaction.

He cited Nathan Miller, a “vicious anti-Catholic,” who served a term as New York governor between Catholic Al Smith’s terms. The Palmer Raids, a national crackdown on “radicals” that followed the 1919 bombing of U.S. Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer’s Washington D.C. home. McCarthyism. AntiMormonism – a Missouri law allowing people to kill Latter Day Saints remained on the books until 1978.

He told of meeting with the 120 lawyers in a Muslim bar association in New York City, and his efforts to lower distrust between them and non-Muslim lawyers. “The times are extraordinarily demanding,” he said, “and it’s important for all of us to step up to the challenge.”

New York has a tradition of acceptance, he continued.

When a group of Jewish merchants were seeking to move from the West Indies to New York City, Peter Stuyvesant asked his bosses at the West India Co. what to do. “You take whoever comes,” was the directive, resulting in the 1654 founding of Congregation Shearith Israel on Manhattan’s Upper West Side.

With Donald Trump’s Republican convention in Cleveland just ended, and Hillary Clinton’s Democratic one (with the Bernie Sanders subplot) about to begin in Philadelphia, audi-

ence members got it.

Still, Schneiderman pointed out, witch trials, then and now, can reflect underlying injustices. While yacht owners may be building mansions on the coast today, 75 percent of American families still haven’t recovered financially from the Great Recession that began in 2008.

The attorney general’s father, Irving, had been chairman of the Metropolitan Opera board, and Paul Kellogg, former artistic director who is marking his 50th year of association with Glimmerglass, took the stage and praised the elder Schneiderman.

And he welcomed the son, who was on a two-day Otsego County swing. The evening before, he keynoted at the annual Otsego County Democratic Dinner at Village Trustee Richard Sternberg’s Cooperstown home.

The attorney general gave insights into other current happenings: • He had been in the same Harvard Law School class with Tim Kaine, named the evening before as Clinton’s running mate. Kaine got his law degree a year late, having taken a year off on an Augustinian mission to serve the poor in Nicaragua.

• In 2013, his was the first state Attorney General’s Office to sue Trump University. In return, Trump sued Schneiderman for libel and other offenses, all of which were eventually thrown out.

“Who knew he’d run for president?” he asked.

• He recalled how he expected people to be angry when he first ran for attorney general in 2010, two years after Lehman Brothers’ collapse. But four years later, when he ran for reelection, they were even moreso.
