Wbg. highway chief named for top environmental award

By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — Although highway construction and maintenance is often at odds with environmental protection, a local town highway superintendent has received a prestigious award from a regional organization dedicated to preserving the natural landscape.

Warrensburg Superintendent of Highways Ed Pennock received the Conservationist of the Year award recently From the Warren County Soil & Water Conservation District.

Conservation District Manager Jim Lieberum said Pennock had in recent years undertaken a wide variety of infrastructure reconstruction projects — rebuilding roadways and stream crossings — and accomplished the work with a commitment to protect natural resources.

“Ed is very pro-active in seeking assistance from us,” Leiberum said. “He may not always like what I have to say, but he’s willing to do things right the first time — while he protects the safety of area motorists.

Leiberum, who also serves as the Warren County Hazard Mitigation Coordinator, said Pennock was committed to protecting public safety, whether it was undertaking work to prevent flooding, wildfires, or washouts caused by breaching beaver dams.

He noted that when culverts have been replaced, Pennock has been committed to having them rebuilt so they will withstand the more violent weather events the area has been experiencing.

Leiberum also said Pennock is diligent about preventing erosion, noting that he is conscientious about re-establishing roadside vegetation after a road reconstruction project is finished.

“Ed’s always thinking about these issues,” Leiberum said.

In addition, Pennock has been helpful in assisting the Conservation District when needed — including offering town labor to unload tons of material into the agency’s barn, Leiberum said.

“The Warrensburg Highway Department has a ghreat crew to work with,” Leiberum said. “We also have a great working relationship with the town of Warrensburg’s Water Department, the town Parks & Recreation Parks crew and the Code Enforcement office.”

For the Conservationist of 2013 award, Leiberum provided nominations to the Warren County Soil & Water Conservation District’s board of board of directors, and that panel made the final selection.

Board chairman Frank Thomas recently praised Pennock for his work.

“Ed’s work on numerous water-quality related projects and his interest in the protection of the area’s natural resources serves as an excellent example of getting conservation projects accomplished,” he said, noting that Pennock’s assistance to the agency had been outstanding.

Town of Warrensburg Supervisor Kevin Geraghty also praised Pennock for his work.

“Ed’s been a good steward of our roads,” he said.

“With all the major storms we’ve had, he’s made a lot of repairs at a reasonable cost to taxpayers — he maintains the roads very well and has a good paving plan in place.”

Geraghty added that Pennock has a reputation for cooperating well with other town and county highway officials and employees.

“Ed maintains a great working relationship with highway crews of surrounding communities as well as the county,” Geraghty said. “He’s a real team player.”

This is only the second time in recent history that Warrensburg Superintendent of Highways Ed Pennock was awarded recently as “Conservationist of the Year” by a town highway superin- the Warren County Soil and Water Conservation District.

Lynn Smith steps down as Wbg. Chamber president

By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — Lynn Smith, one of the longest reigning presidents of the Warrensburg Chamber of Commerce in recent history, is stepping down from her executive role.

On Jan. 9, the Chamber held its annual election of officers, and both Candice Healy and Smith were nominated for the post of president, and Smith declined to be a candidate. As a result, Healy — who is Warrensburg branch manager of Glens Falls National Bank — was unanimously voted in as president.

Voted in as vice president of the Chamber was Linda Baker Marcella, broker-owner of Adirondack Real Estate.Brooke Ackley of Direct Deposit Redemption Center was re-elected as Secretary-Treasurer.

Smith has been known for her dedicated volunteer work annually on the Warrensburg Largest Garage Sale, shepherding this nationally renowned event through some tough times financially.

For months every year, planning and overseeing the Garage Sale event has been a full time job for Smith, a responsibility she’s balanced along with operating Alynn’s Butterfly Inn Bed & Breakfast on State Rte. 28.

Contacted Jan. 13, Smith said that others deserved credit for

Town Talk

their work on behalf of the Chamber.

“I thank everyone for their support,” she said. Smith joined the Chamber in 2000, and was elected president of the group in 2001. She served as president ever since except for a short break several years ago.

“I’m glad Candice was nominated — it’s time for me to move on, and Candice will do a good job,” she said. “Any organization needs new blood. After such a long time, it’s good to have change.”

The change in leadership comes at a time that some new members joined — individuals who expressed interest in the Chamber tackling new events and initiatives.

Smith said that she will continue to volunteer for the Garage Sale, which the Warren County Board of Supervisors has recognized as one of the most popular events in the county.

Warrensburg Town Supervisor Kevin Geraghty, who serves as Chairman of the county Board of Supervisors, praised Smith for her many years of work on the World’s Largest Garage Sale.

“Many thanks go to Lynn for her volunteer effort,” he said. “ I know as President of the Warrensburg Volunteer Fire Co. that a lot of work goes on behind the scenes, and I know that’s the situation with the Chamber. I wish Lynn all the best and the incoming president good luck in promoting the town.” ing is to be held at 6 p.m. Feb. 6 in the Chamber office, 3725 Main St. in downtown Warrensburg.

At the January town board meeting, the town highway crew was praised for its efficient snow removal.

Town leaders reminded residents of the hamlet to shovel their sidewalks and dig out any fire hydrants on their properties. Snow from any shoveling and plowing should not be deposited on roadways. Also, there is no parking on roadways during winter from midnight to 6 a.m.to allow highway workers to plow the roads properly.

Also, if anyone notices a street light that is not illuminating, report the pole number and location to the town hall so it can be reported to National Grid for repair.

Lk. Geo. Chamber, bed tax awards criticized in wake of B.I.D. defeat

By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com LAKE GEORGE — The proposal to establish a Business Improvement District in the village of Lake George was rejected last week by downtown commercial property owners, but community leaders say that merchants are undeterred in their commitment to boosting the village’s business climate.

John Carr of Adirondack Pub & Brewery, who successfully campaigned against the B.I.D. because of how it established a new layer of taxes, told village trustees Jan. 14 that both those for and against the B.I.D. formation supported the objective of business development and promotion — but he said existing entities in charge of tourism and marketing weren’t adequately fulfilling their missions.

“We were not opposed to the B.I.D. as a marketing vehicle, just the taxation involved,” Carr said, noting he was in favor of a continuing discussion between downtown business proprietors about how to boost business through shared marketing and promotion initiatives.

Blais predicted that such communication in the business community would indeed go forward. He said he expected the B.I.D. steering committee — which had been meeting for many months and was developing potential businessboosting initiatives — would continue to meet.

Carr also denounced the way occupancy tax revenue was alllocated, and he questioned whether the Lake George Chamber of Commerce was as active as it should be in boosting the fortunes of commercial enterprises — and he criticized the group for not creating new local events.

“The Chamber is under-serving the tourism business community — and lack of membership among village businesses is evidence of this,” he said, suggesting that the Chamber redefine its role in the community and work more effectively in pursuing its objectives. “Most everyone I talk with is unhappy with the Chamber and the way Occupancy Tax is spent — changes need to be made.”

Lake George Chamber President Michael Consuelo countered Carr’s contentions. He said Chamber officials were indeed busy in boosting tourism.

“We’re not just selling the Chamber’s membership, we’re promoting Lake George, the brand, and the entire county,” he said, noting that the Chamber is busy year-round answering inquiries, as well as soliciting and arranging conventions, tours and conferences.

Consuelo added that his organization is bringing plenty of people to Lake George that otherwise might not visit.

“Lake George and Warren County is benefiting now from all the people we draw here,” he said, noting that the Chamber advises tourists at the Lake George Visitors Center, plus it entices potential tourists at the Northway Exit 18 rest stop information center and the Exit 21 outlet mall tourist center.

He said he would be meeting soon with Carr and other downtown merchants to hear their input and discuss potential initiatives.

Carr also said Jan. 13 that sales tax revenue should not be allocated in Warren County by property valuation, but it should be distributed back to municipalities in proportion to where it is generated.

He noted that while the town of Bolton hosts relatively few businesses, it receives about $3.6 million annually in sales tax revenue, while Lake George Village — with its hundreds of businesses and hundreds of thousands of visitors annually — only receives about $600,000 in sales tax revenue.

“We are not getting our fair shake, and this discrepancy is bound to get worse with rising property values,” he said.

On the subject of county Occupancy Tax revenue distribution, Carr said that much of the money was spent by the county for purposes not directly related to business promotion as was originally intended. He also suggested that business proprietors be represented on the county committee that allocates the revenue to various events and enterprises.

Blais said he was aware of such concerns aired by Carr and other business owners.

“There are things now in the works to keep these issues on the table and work things out,” he said, adding that he was now developing a proposal for new guidelines for occupancy tax allocation, and he would soon be sharing them with the county Board of Supervisors.

Blais said he also supported representation on the occupancy tax committee by business

Tourists stroll down Canada St. in Lake George Village on a recent Fourth of July weekend. How to best promote tourism was discussed by the village board Jan. 13, after the downtown property owners defeated the proposed local Business Improvement District.

owners, and he was concerned how some event promoters were “double dipping.” He was also concerned that the county and its municipalities had different criteria for allocating the revenue to enterprises, and some event promoters had to make up to four separate applications for funding.

He also said adding decision makers to the panel of selected county supervisors would enhance the allocation process by adding people who had first-hand knowledge of the value of particular events to local communities’ economies.

MOAS Dinner-Dance set at North Warren

CHESTERTOWN — On Jan. 18 the North Warren MOAS (Model Organization of American States) Class will be holding an International Delight Dinner-Dance as a fundraiser. The group is inviting the North Warren community to join in a night of fun.

The MOAS Class is a college-level course taken through SUNY Plattsburgh. It is a model of the Organization of American States, which brings together diplomats from nations in North, South and Central America, as well as the Caribbean.

Students prepare resolutions and debate on behalf of them at a mock summit in June at SUNY Plattsburgh. It is an opportunity for students to learn about political relations, develop public speaking skills and prepare for college.

This dinner is the main fundraiser for the class. It will raise money for a trip to Washington D.C. for a meeting with an ambassador of the U.S. and Venezuela to the OAS. This meeting will allow students to gain that country’s views on different topics and hear their opinions on the students’ resolutions.

Dinner including an array of desserts will be provided. The price is $8 in advance, $10 at the door and $30 for families of four or more. The dinner will start at 5 p.m. followed by dancing.

Children, along with adults, are invited to dress up as the MOAS students will be doing. Children under eighth grade should be accompanied by an adult.

Tobacco customers should be 21 or older

T

here’s still time to make a pair of important New Year’s health resolutions. Smokers should make every effort to quit. Society should make every attempt to prevent people from starting to smoke — including raising the minimum age to purchase tobacco from 18 to 21.

We’ve known the dangers of smoking for years, but a milestone this month should serve to remind us smoking kills. It was 50 years ago this month a landmark U.S. Surgeon General’s report that linked smoking with bad health was issued. It was the first time Americans were told directly smoking kills. The government has updated the report 32 times in the five decades since.

Those reports, along with the work of doctors and other health professionals, have made an impact. In 1965, 42 percent of the population smoked. Today, 19 percent of Americans do, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The CDC claims government anti-smoking efforts have saved 8 million lives.

That’s wonderful progress, but work remains to be done. An estimated 43.8 million Americans still smoke and experts claim the decline in smoking has plateaued. People aren’t quitting anymore.

Smoking remains the No. 1 cause of preventable death in the United States. It kills more people than obesity, substance abuse, infectious disease, firearms and traffic accidents, according to the CDC. About 443,000 Americans die from smoking-related illnesses every year, according to the U.S. Department of Health.

Americans know smoking kills. It’s becoming more and more socially unacceptable. It’s expensive. It’s banned in most public places. Yet millions continue to do it. Why? A combination of psychological and biological factors are to blame, according to scientists.

“The chemicals in cigarettes work on the structures deep within a smoker’s brain, literally rewiring it so the habit becomes deeply ingrained,” Jed Rose, the director of the Duke Center for Smoking Cessation in North Carolina, said in a recent CNN report. “Every move a smoker makes: the lighting of the cigarette, the inhaling, all the feelings and sensations of it, the whole package becomes highly addictive.”

Most smokers believe its easy to quit — before they actually try to stop, according to scientists.

“Ultimately, they will lose their capacity to make a free choice to smoke,” Rose said. “Then 30 years later, that’s when we typically see them in our program desperately trying to quit, because now they can’t go a single day without (a cigarette).”

The World Health Organization has termed tobacco a “gradual killer.” It notes many young people start to smoke believing they can stop before suffering ill effects. While it’s never too late to quit, quitting is often much tougher than simply recognizing the problem.

Avoiding cigarettes all together is the best way to steer clear of tobacco-related addiction and illness. That means keeping them away from children and young people, which is the reason many are calling for an increase in the legal age to 21 to purchase cigarettes. New York City had already taken that action. Some New York counties — Nassau and Suffolk on Long Island — have raised the legal age for purchasing cigarettes to 19. New York State should follow their lead. If not, local governments should.

While tobacco advertising has been banned on television and the dangers of cigarettes have become well known, temptation remains.

Several studies show tobacco marketing and advertising works and increases the likelihood that youth will start smoking. In 2011, cigarette companies spent $8.37 billion on ads and promotional expenses in the United States alone, according to the CDC. That breaks down to about $23 million a day or $27 for every American per year.

Tobacco use is an issue everyone should care about — smokers and non-smokers. It’s expensive for everyone.

Smoking cost the United States more than $193 billion a year, according to the CDC, including $97 billion in lost productivity and $96 billion in direct health care expenditures. That’s an average of $4,260 per adult smoker. It’s a price we all pay. Ñ

Turning Back the Pages

By Jean Hadden

•100 years ago — Jan. 1914•

History seen as it really was

Nearly everyone has something, big or small, that they enjoy collecting. Rare plants, seashells, snow globes, coins, you name it. My passion for collecting started many long years ago when I visited at the home of my late friend, Warrensburgh’s eminent historian, Stewart Farrar. He had a vast collection of history books, which including volumes from the 18th and 19th century.

Those fragile, cracked leather, handmade books, bound in leather — now cracked, written by people who had long since turned to dust, always fascinated me — and soon after I went on my own quest to acquire such treasures.

In the years to come it was my good fortune to have my daughter and son-in-law, Kayce and Jim Dimond, become wellknown historical paper dealers and managers of estate sales. I purchased some of the best dusty tomes that many old Vermont attics had housed for many generations and whose pages really spoke to me. In many cases the writings were about local history, seen first hand, or stories told to the authors by older family members.

Lake George’s hidden secrets

Last October, the archeologists’ discovery of artifacts near Million Dollar Beach parking lot that could date back as far as 8000 years, shut down parking lot and roadwayconstruction plans to be temporarily shut down. The find included a lot of arrowheads and a spearhead that was about eight inches long. This indicateed that Lake George was a hotbed of activity for American Indians long before it became the site of numerous battles and encampments during the French and Indian War era.

Over the years It has been in the news many times that village workman digging for a water pipe or whatever, discovered yet another skeleton of some poor soul who perished during the famous 1756 aftermath of General Montcalm’s famous siege of Fort William Henry.

Even as this tale is well known, a tourist would be hard put to visualize this blood-thirsty event as it actually happened as they drive through the town’s modern, peaceful 21st century village.

The detailed account of the fort’s seige

I have a well worn book in my collection entitled, “A History of the State of Vermont from its Discovery and Settlement,” written by Nathan Hoskins and published by J. Shedd in 1831 in Vergennes, Vt. Besides Vermont history, the book also includes area Adirondack history and it was published only 75 years after the

Ice jam floods Thurman roadway

A stretch of River Road which runs alongside the Hudson River in Thurman was closed on the evening of Sunday, Jan. 12 due to flooding, caused by an ice jam in the river. The road was cleared of ice by the Thurman town highway crew and reopened in less than 24 hours, and a channel in the river opened, allowing water to flow downstream.

The type of flooding we have seen over the past few weeks is extremely rare for this time of year, something we usually only see during mid- to late March. Use caution while driving our roads here in town, as we all know too well a flash flood could come through at any time washing out roads in its course.

Thoughts about living in a remote area

Ever since I was a young child, I’ve had a desire to live on a dirt road in the middle of nowhere and I have achieved that goal. I have discovered that there are some minor drawbacks to this, however, and I chuckle at some and ponder others. For one thing, when you go out to town and forget that one item you had to have you must debate just how important it was. Is it indeed important enough to turn around and go get it, or can it wait until tomorrow? When I was pregnant for my last child, I wanted to use cloth diapers and came upon a stumbling block when I discovered that no service would come to our remote territory far to deliver or retrieve the diapers.

Dirt roads and trash removal issues

Living in a remote area on a dirt or gravel road gives local residents an enjoyable connection with nature, but it raises some problems. Take for example trash collection service by Ace Carting, which has been servicing Thurman for the past year since municipal collection was discontinued. Recently, calls have been received about Ace Carting’s service — apparently Ace Carting has decided to no longer pick up some residents’ waste, without advance notification. When contacted, an Ace employee said they couldn’t pick up trash during the winter from residents who live on dirt roads. Those in need of trash removal — residing on dirt or paved roads — may contact Jim Desourdy of Thurman at 623-4524. Desourdy picks up weekly for a fee of $5.

While the Myrna Keeler has been on vacation enjoying muchneeded rest and relaxation, several Thurman residents have stepped up to the plate to try as best they can to fill her shoes at the Food Pantry. A big Thank You goes out to Ruth Keller and

famous Lake George massacre. As Hoskins describes the aftermath of the bloody event, it is likely that he spoke with some elderly people who had once been there in their youth and survived the bloodbath or people who had heard detailed descriptions from older members of their family.

A day spent in Hell

Nathan Hoskins’ detailed narration of the aftermath of Marquis de Montcalm’s attack on Fort William Henry is not for the faint of heart.

After the French general’s trip south down Lake George from Ticonderoga, he attacked Fort William Henry with 500 men and a vast army of about 600 Indian volunteers to further advance the French cause in America. The fort was commanded by English officer Colonel Monroe who had under his command regulars and provincials stationed at Fort William Henry and nearby in the area that would later become Fort George. Colonel Monroe expected and depended upon relief from General Webb at Fort Edward who showed little interest in Monroe’s desperate dilemma and failed to make an appearance. Monroe defended his precarious position from August 3 to 9, 1756. On the 9th, many of Monroe’s guns burst and with his ammunition expended, he was therefore obliged to surrender.

Hoskins describes a blood bath

General Montcalm was an honorable man. On Aug. 9 articles of capitulation were signed, the terms of which were that the vanquished should retain their arms and be escorted to Fort Edward. The possession of the fort was then immediately given to the French. It wasn’t long before Montcalm realized that his Indian volunteers had no respect for him and were no longer under his control.

Hoskins wrote, “The Indians, ignoring Montcalm’s command, rushed instantly over the parapet and seized such articles as they could, with impunity, then they commenced their depredations upon the baggage of the officers, which was represented as a violation of the terms of the capitulation. But in contempt of this, the Indians attached to the French army fell upon the defenseless prisoners and massacred whoever came in their way. The whole garrison, consisting of 2,000 men, women and children, out of which 1,500 were killed or made prisoners and many of them never returned.”

When Major Putnam arrived with a company of rangers to watch the movements of Montcalm, he found that he was too late and Montcalm and his army had already embarked on their return to Ticonderoga. “The prospect was awful and horrid in

Lake George Winter Carnival coming up

The 1st annual Lake George Winter Carnival was held in the winter of 1961. Well over a half-century later, the tradition continues. The Winter Carnival is held every weekend in February and opening ceremonies will be held at noon Feb. 1 on Shepard Park Beach. There is to be an endless amount of activities including fireworks over the beach every Saturday evening at 6:30 p.m.

Events & activities in the hills

Thurman town offices will be closed Monday, Jan. 20 in observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day. The Thurman Quilting Group holds their meetings at the Thurman Town hall every Monday. This week’s session occurs Jan. 20 from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. Stop in for a cup of tea or coffee and enjoy a visit with friends and neighbors. For details, contact Myra at 623-2633.

the highest degree. The fort was demolished, the barracks and outhouses were a heap of ruins, the cannon stores and utensils were carried away, the fires were still burning with smoke and stench suffocating and offensive. Numberless fragments of human skulls, bones and carcasses half consumed, were still broiling and frying in the decaying fires. Dead bodies mangled with scalping knives, in all the wantonness of Indian barbarity were everywhere to be seen.”

Major Putnam, with his command, took to the trail of the marauders, which soon became strewed with fragments of plunder dropped by the rapidly retreating savages as they faded away into the forest and in their canoes.

Horrors better left unwritten

Hoskins described in detail how more than 100 woman, inhumanly stabbed and butchered, lay naked on the ground but I think that I would be wrong to go into further detail because his detailed description of the corpses is just too graphic. He did write that the spectacle was far too horrid to be described or endured. The bodies of the dead were buried in a trench near the scene of massacre a few yards east of the picketed enclosure of the fort. French historians would later only admit to 110 scalps being taken.

In Smith’s 1885 History of Warren County, there is a story of finding the corpse of a woman who had been mutilated and fastened to a sapling who had been tortured and scalped. Speaking of two oxen left by the Indians, it was written, “One of the oxen had no other injury than to have one of its horns cut out. It was still alive and bellowing with agony. This they were obliged to kill.”

“Another ox had been regularly scalped. The animal was afterwards driven to the lake, where it immediately became an object of sympathy and attention of the whole army. By careful attendance and nursing, the wound healed in the course of the season.

In the fall the animal was driven down to the farm of Colonel Schuyler, near Albany, and the following year was shipped to England for exhibition as a curiosity. Far and wide it was known as the scalped ox.”

Further blood, glory & honorable death

Later in 1758, General Montcalm defended Ticonderoga and then proceeded to go to the defense of Quebec where he died a heroic death in 1759 fighting against British General James Wolfe who died also there on the Plains of Abraham.

The Sugar Loaf Seniors group holds their meetings once a month at the Thurman Town Hall on the third Saturday of the month. These meetings are held only during the winter months when it can sometimes be tricky for the seniors to get out in the evening hours due to snow and ice. There will not be a meeting in January. The next meeting will occur at 11:30 a.m. Feb. 15 in the hall. Norma Galusha says that she anticipates the group will go back to their regular meetings on the third Wednesdays at 5:30 p.m. for the month of March — but this is all dependent on spring weather. Membership is still only $10 per year. For more information, call Norma at 623-9425.

It’s time to think about 2014 gardens

Now may be the time to start selecting what types of vegetables you will choose to grow this spring. It’s possible to have a fine vegetable garden by buying young plants. But you will have a much wider range of possibilities if you start your own plants indoors from seeds.

Not only is it much cheaper, but you can buy seeds for many more varieties than you will find for sale as plants.

Many of our favorite flowers and vegetables, including tomatoes, peppers, squash and beans, evolved in places such as Central America and Mexico where they had many more hours of sunlight in their growing season than they can get in most of the U.S. Seeds will not sprout in soil that is still cold in spring and the fruits need more sun to ripen than is available in the waning days of autumn.

On a personal note

Celebrating anniversaries this week are Gary and Linda Rounds on Jan. 18, also Richard and Sally Wallace on Jan. 22.

Celebrating birthdays this week are Lewie Gallup, Jr. on Jan. 18, Daniel Vanselous on Jan. 19, Will Hill on Jan. 20, Curtis Tyler and Keith Sonley, Jr. on Jan. 21, plus Bethany Herrmann and Glen Germain, Jr. on Jan. 22.

Letters to the Editor

Lake George B.I.D. process was one-sided To the Editor: The recent victory in the defeat of the proposed Business Improvement District in the Village of Lake George is significant because the entire process for its approval was a stacked deck.

The committee was hand-picked by the mayor, not by the business community as BIDs were designed, guaranteeing a “Yes” vote of the committee.

Mayor Blais was quoted in the Post-Star as saying 110 votes were needed to pass the BID proposition. After four tries, everyone, including himself, knew that exempt properties don’t count

and the real number of properties in the proposed district, in fact, was 74. Blais later stated that after calling the Conference of Mayors, that indeed, exempt properties don’t count. When you’re the mayor of a tiny village who knows these things well after four attempts at a BID, to say otherwise is ingenious.

The vote was conveniently scheduled for the dead of winter when many owners are away or cannot be reached. This gave a decided advantage to the pro-BID group.

To vote “No” on the proposition, a property owner had to identify himself as a “No” vote which carries the fear, real or imagined, of reprisal from the powers that be.

In order to vote, the ballot required a notarized signature.

This was yet another impediment for the voter on the way to the ballot box.

When the major was asked at the public hearing on Dec. 4 by

business owner John Carr if ballots would be mailed to all potential voters, mayor Blais said No they would not, citing expense as the reason. Carr said that he would reimburse the Village for postage and envelopes at his expense but the answer was still No. Apparently an informed voter is to be avoided.

The last day when ballots could be counted was Jan. 6. The BID voting website was taken down before Jan. 6, making it impossible for someone who wished to vote on the last day by downloading a ballot. This of course aided the pro-BID initiative. Thanks to the business voters who despite the roadblocks to the polls and the crony committee, chose to stand up, be identified and say No, the BID was defeated. Imagine what the tally would have been with full disclosure and a level playing field.

Cuomo

from page 1

Cuomo: Tax cuts will boost prosperity

His tax cut proposals, announced earlier this week, total $2.2 billion. They are aimed at curbing an exodus of people and corporations — concerned about preserving their assets — from the state. He said that whether New Yorkers were wealthy or had modest incomes, they were taxed far too much.

Cuomo called for a two-year property-tax freeze for middleclass families, noting that municipal and school taxes, as a proportion of home value, are exceedingly high in upstate New York. In this plan, homeowners who live in municipalities that stay within the 2 percent tax cap will receive a rebate that equals any annual increase in taxes.

In addition, he proposed a property tax “circuit breaker” that would give low and modest-income homeowners a state income tax credit of $1,000 for those earning $120,000 or less. A similar tax credit would be extended to taxpayers whose income was $100,000 or less.

Also proposed was raising the threshold of the state’s estate tax, allowing citizens to pass more assets down to their heirs without taxes. Noting that thousands of New Yorkers now move to Florida so they can avoid estate taxes, he proposed raising New York’s estate tax threshold from $1 million to the current federal level of $5.5 million — and lowering the top tax rate to 10 percent.

For manufacturers, Cuomo suggested a zero percent corporate income tax rate for upstate enterprises and a 20 percent corporate property tax credit statewide — both to boost job creation and entice out-of-state and foreign firms to relocate in New York.

He also suggested cutting the corporate franchise tax rate from 7.1 to 6.5 percent — and eliminating a utility surcharge tax of 2 percent to boost businesses’ competitive edge.

Education technology a top priority

In the realm of education, Cuomo proposed borrowing $2 billion for a Smart Schools initiative that would provide computer equipment including servers, wireless networking, digital

teaching tools and administrative programs for school districts.

It would also equip students with computer tablets and desktop consoles — as well as promoting broadband access throughout communities.

“The most effective long-term strategy is to have the best education system in the world — period!” he said.

Plan to extend pre-k, reward excellence

Cuomo also said full-day pre-kindergarten should be universal throughout New York, adding that the state should bankroll constructing the classrooms needed.

Also proposed was boosting the partnership between high schools, colleges, government and employers to prepare students for fulfilling technology careers in-state.

Cuomo also said that free tuition to SUNY colleges, 4-year or 2-year, should be extended to high school students who rank in the top 10 percent of their respective classes.

Expressing alarm about a downstate case of extreme religious harassment, Cuomo proposed requiring all schools to report incidences of harassment or bullying to a variety of authorities.

Initiatives eyed to increase tourism

Tourism is also to be a focus of economic development in the plan. Rather than requiring outdoor sports enthusiasts to carry separate various hunting, fishing, trapping and boating licenses — and a state parks pass — citizens could have them all appearing as icons on their drivers’ license.

Cuomo also announced his plan — without divulging details — to create 50 new “outdoor access projects” that would include building new boat launches, erecting hunting blinds and constructing new trails and parking areas.For the state parks, Cuomo calls for computer-automating the reservation, permit and park entry functions.

“Let’s redouble our tourism efforts, because in New York, seeing is believing,” he said. “Once people come here, they’re hooked.”

Also, he proposed erecting highway signs — coupled with smartphone apps — that direct people off Interstate routes to local cultural attractions.

“Our goal is to get tourists off the highways and into our com-

January 18, 2014 munities to boost local commerce,” he said.

Cuomo also set a timetable for casino development plans upstate, calling for bids to be due in June, with sites and gaming operators to be announced by October.

Biomass and solar initiatives planned

Also proposed was launching two programs: Renewable Heat NY and BuildSmart NY. The former calls for establishing incentives to encourage municipalities, homeowners and enterprises to heat with biomass fuels including low-grade wood products.

The latter is to encourage solar heating by offering incentives for entire neighborhoods adjacent to an existing solar installation to go green. Cuomo said that adopting biomass and solar heat would keep more money recirculating in the state.

Infrastructure reconstruction proposed

Concerned about the vulnerability of the state’s infrastructure to the recent emergence of violent, destructive storms, Cuomo proposed embarking on a major $17 billion project to reconstruct and upgrade bridges, subway tunnels railways and utility installations to make them withstand such events — and help communities be adequately prepared. The “Re-imagining New York for a New Reality” program would also help individuals, businesses and communities recover from past storm events, boost emergency preparedness and response capabilities, as well as construct coastal protection barriers, flood-proof vehicle tunnels and major utility infrastructure.

A sum of $7.1 billion would go toward rebuilding 100 bridges that were either damaged by the storms of recent years, or upgrade those vulnerable to future storms. Five of these bridges are in the Adirondack Park.

“This will be the largest reconstruction project the state has ever undertaken,” he said, noting the Rebuild NY initiative would be underwritten by federal money.

Also proposed was developing a new SUNY College of Emergency Preparedness, Homeland Security & Cybersecurity — the first in the nation — as well as launching a community-based Citizen First Responder Corps.

Broadband from page 1

The positive vote evoked cheers and applause from the audience, who earlier had watched a demonstration of whitespace technology. They experienced a wireless video-conference broadcast from an off-the-grid cabin belonging to Eric Lohrey, an architectural engineer. In this live broadcast, Lohrey talked of the how white-space broadband would allow him to pursue his career more effectively from his remote rural setting. He was joined by Shiela Flanagan of Nettle Meadow Farm, who spoke of how the white-space wireless would allow her to expand her rural business — producing cheese that’s nationally acclaimed.

State Sen. Betty Little told the crowd of how Thurman’s pilot project would serve as an example of how broadband could be brought to other rural, wooded remote communities across the state.

“This wireless broadband project is about providing for the health and safety of local residents — and it’s the future of education and the community’s economy,” she said. Little noted how in public schools, students are expected to be connected to the Internet at home and at school to gather information and complete their assignments.

“Many schools are not even using textbooks anymore,” she said. Little added that the “white space” technology was considered the best option to keep households connected to the Internet, and this would attract more vacationers and secondhomeowners who could be productive while in their getaway residences, able to do their homework — and access information — over the Internet.

Some critics of the project suggested that the $200,000 grant that Little and Stec had procured for the project would be better spent by laying miles of fiber-optic cable down the rural roads and connecting to Time-Warner Cable. But Engelmann replied that it would be too costly, and Little said that she was aware of many households elsewhere couldn’t obtain service from Time Warner and other firms for years because it wasn’t profitable for the corporations.

She warned that if Thurman didn’t take advantage of this

grant on a timely basis, the money would be turned over to other unconnected communities that also applied for state money.

“If you don’t take this grant, someone else will,” she said.

Three members of the five-member board had formerly supported conducting more research into the various available technologies. Engelmann told the crowd that conducting such research might postpone any broadband access for Thurman for a decade.

Stec told the crowd of local citizens how the wireless broadband would protect their home values, boost their children’s education, and allow professionals to work from home — so their pay would be spent locally rather than in metropolitan communities elsewhere.

“People will be able to have their Manhattan paychecks paid here in Thurman,” he said, noting how it would boost Thurman’s rural economy. “Internet access here is a tremendous plus.”

He added that various rural enterprises in Thurman needed this cutting-edge technology to survive.

“Nowadays, businesses without fast Internet connections are dead in the water.”

Thurman Town Clerk Cynthia Hyde read more than a dozen lengthy letters in support of white-space broadband, citing how it would enrich their lives, boost the productivity of their enterprises and connect them with family and friends. The letters described of the expense and inconvenience and slow data transfer of satellite reception, including the data caps and charges that escalated with their usage, unlike the white-space installation, which has not data caps or extra charges.

Adirondack Journal - 11 Engelmann, who is likely to maintain the broadband system, aswered more than a dozen questions about the technology posed by audience members. Engelmann has said that if the project moves forward right away, dozens of households could be connected by this summer. After the board’s decision in favor of the project, the council voted to award the bids for the white space equipment.

Minutes after the vote, Ava Ashendorff, one of the founders of the white-space project, let out a sigh of relief. She’s worked for Engelmann as a volunteer to help Thurman obtain broadband access.

“We’re very excited the town understands the need to move forward into the future,” she said.

Stec offered similar thoughts.

“I applaud the board for moving forward,” he said.

Owens

from page 1 2009.

There is no word if Owens is planning on endorsing any candidate to run for the 21st Congressional District seat in November.

Three Republicans, Joseph Gilbert of St. Lawrence County, Michael Ring of Jefferson County, and Elise Stefanik of Essex County have already announced their intent to run for Owens’ seat.

No Democrats have announced the intention to run yet, but Randy Douglas (D-Jay), Jay Supervisor and Essex County Board of Supervisors Chairman, said he would have to discuss the matter with his family and staff, but would not rule out the possibility of running.

“Politics aside, Bill has been an excellent Congressman,” said state Assemblywoman Janet Duprey. “On a personal level I’m going to miss him. I wish him the very best going forward.”

“I want to thank Congressman Owens for his service representing this district. I think regardless of which side of the isle you’re on, he should be commended for being an advocate on behalf of New York 21,” Stefanik said.

Gallery to feature artwork of Hillary Fayle & Yari Ostovany LAKE GEORGE — A two-person exhibit of recent artwork by Hillary Fayle and Yari Ostovany opens Saturday Jan. 18 at the Lake George Arts Project’s Courthouse Gallery with an artists reception set for 4 p.m. to 6 p.m..

This showing of Fayle’s artwork features a collection of her intricate embroidery of leaves and other natural found objects.

The artwork of Ostovany showcased in the exhibit is a selection of his richly hued, layered abstract paintings.

There is no charge for the reception. The gallery is located in the Old County Courthouse building, side entrance, off Amherst St. Several years ago. Fayle began stitching on unconventional materials while studying embroidery during a semester abroad in Manchester, England. She began using found materials and fabric and later turned to natural biodegradable objects. In her recent work she carefully selects materials from the natural world, primarily leaves.

She then either cuts or stitches into them using a mix of traditional and original embroidery patterns and techniques.

Fayle said she seeks to convey the delicate yet elaborate balance of nature in her work.

“I feel that the elaborate stitching reflects the intricate patterns and incredible detail found in the natural world,” she said.

Fayle has a degree in Fiber Design from SUNY Buffalo. Her work was recently featured on the covers of Fiber Arts Now Magazine and the British publication Embroidery Magazine.

Also, she was awarded the Platte Clove Artist Residency in the Catskill Mountains of New York.Fayle is originally from Forestport, NY a rural town of 1,500 or so people in the Western Adirondacks.

Ostovany’s paintings are considered records of an intuitive journey involving cultural memory — densely layered compo-

sitions made over time with numerous layers of thick and thin washes and glazes.

His work incorporates allusions to myths and literature, often exploring the sense of existence.

He often works in a series, which has its origin in a cognitive or emotional spark, an experience which is used as a point of departure.

“I look for a sense of resonance, not a representation of the spiritual energy but a translation of it into light and texture, navigating the space between stasis and movement,” he said, noting that he’s always been interested in the mechanics of the relationship between Persian and Western Art. “Living in the space between two cultures, I traverse the space between the East and the West, the nomadic in-between spaces: between emergence and disappearance, between the solid and the void,” he said.

Born in Iran in 1962, Yari Ostovany moved to the United States at the age of 16 and pursued his studies in Art first at the University of Nevada, and then at the San Francisco Art Institute where he earned his BFA and MFA. Ostovany has taught, traveled and exhibited extensively in the U.S. and internationally, and has received various grants. He currently lives in the San Francisco Bay Area.

This exhibition is funded in part by Hacker Boat Company.

The Courthouse Gallery hours during exhibitions are Tuesday through Friday noon to 5 p.m., Saturday from noon to 4 p.m., and otherwise by appointment.

All of those attending the event snowshoed the Natural Stone Bridge Cave trail, and viewed the largest cave entrance in eastern U.S. as well as the frozen waterfalls nearby.

Some of the snowshoers walked the trail beside Trout Brook, which hosts an active beaver colony. Others explored the venue’s Hidden Trail system, which entails a moderately steep climb, to see dramatic natural vistas.

Other participants hiked up Catamount Hill and Green Hill, in three to four-hour excursions that offered panoramic wintry views.

Beckler said he was happy to host the Community Day to give more local people a glimpse of the many attributes of Natural Stone Bridge & Caves property, which encompasses 1,000 acres.

“They really enjoyed their experience, and I am expecting they will be telling their friends and family members about the diversity of terrain and things to see here at Natural Stone Bridge & Caves.”

Local residents discover wintry wonders at Stone Bridge & Caves

By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com POTTERSVILLE — Embarking on snowshoe expeditions, about 50 area residents explored the vast acreage of Natural Stone Bridge & Caves during the venue’s Community Day held Saturday Jan. 4.

People from all walks of life traversed one or more of the variety of trails, a total of 12.5 miles of them — and returned for a bonfire, complete with a marshmallow roast and the warm welcome of the Beckler family, proprietors of the noted attraction.

Over half of those attending Community Day — a complimentary gesture to local residents — obtained season passes with the intent to return and explore further on the trail system and experience more of the natural wonders the Stone Bridge property features, Greg Beckler said.

NW Trailblazers sled group offers various events, benefits

CHESTERTOWN — The Northern Warren Trailblazers Snowmobile Club, which will soon be holding its premier annual party this next week, has experienced remarkable growth during its 20 years of existence.

The Trailblazers club was established in 1994 as a not-for profi t corporation with about 20 members. Today the club has grown to an average annual membership of 700, with snowmobilers from many other states from the northeastern U.S.. A $25 family membership in the club provides a $45 discount on the New York State snowmobile registration fee, and in many cases provides an additional discount on liability insurance.

The club is operated on a volunteer basis, maintaining continuous 68 miles of groomed trails that allow snowmobilers to go from Warrensburg to Chestertown, Brant Lake, Pottersville, Schroon Lake and Hague. The club is working on linking North Warren trails with trail systems of Southern Warren Trailblazers and Thurman Connection Snowmobile Club so that riders can travel to and from our area, through Lake George, Lake Luzerne, Washington County and as far away as Vermont and Canada.

Also, the Trailblazers also voluntarily groom the ski and sliding hills at Dynamite Hill in Chestertown, which is open at no charge to the public.

The Trailblazer members enjoy participating in local events like they did in the 2013 Warren County Bicentennial parade and festival.

During the winter, they host events which include picnics and cookouts on the trail system as well as a club rides, which gives members of all abilities the opportunity to ride in other locations with members who have previously been over those trails. Such trips have included excursions to northern New York and Canada.

This year’s club ride is scheduled for Feb. 15 through Feb. 17. For details, see: http://northernwarrentrailblazers.snowclubs.com or their FaceBook page for details.

The Trailblazers’ clubhouse on Knapp Hill in Chestertown is open on weekends during the riding season for all snowmobilers riding the trail system to use as a warm-up stop and rest-room break. Riders stopping in are offered free coffee, cocoa and popcorn. The clubhouse is also available for local organizations to use, free of charge, for educational seminars and meetings of civic organizations.

The core of the Northern Warren Trailblazers membership is about 20 die-hard snowmobiling members who are committed to making the riding experience an enjoyable one for area sled enthusiasts — and getting the trails ready is no easy job. In addition to grooming, these volunteers contact land owners to obtain permission to use their lands for new trails. Trail maintenance — including trimming brush and cleaning up downed trees, building new trails, and installing trail culverts — is required on a year-round basis.

Event coordination and planning are also important. Website management and social media outreach are vital in communicating with members as well as attracting new ones.

Looking toward the future, the club hopes to recruit more local businesses to become actively involved as monthly meetings are held at their club house and club news is posted on the Trailblazers’ website.

Several years ago, the snowmobile club provided to Warren County a report of sales tax and business income generated by snowmobiling, and these numbers are substantial, confi rming that this sport has a huge benefi t to local businesses, a club offi cial said this week.

At this time, the North Warren Trailblazers are in need of more volunteers to join in the fun and the work they face — and club offi cials believe that young people are needed to assure the future of this organization.

To encourage new riders, the Trailblazers club offers snowmobile safety courses annually. Completion of a safety course is required for youthful operators 16 years and younger and is recommended for all riders of any age to learn trail etiquette.

Trailblazers’ Winter White-Out on Jan. 18

The North Warren Trailblazers’ 19th annual Winter White-Out party is set for Saturday, Jan. 18, at the Clubhouse on Knapp Hill Road in Chestertown.

To be held from noon to 5 p.m., the fest features a barbecue available from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. as well as live music and bonfi res. The fee for the event is $15 per person with children under 10 free. All community members are welcome to attend.

A drawing for a 2014 Ski-doo MXZ Sport 600 is to be held after the barbecue. This snowmobile features an electric start, reverse and liquid cooled engine. The drawing’s second prize is a 2013 covered Triton trailer. Tickets for this raffl e can be purchased at local businesses or call Mike Hill at 796-1603.

Drawing tickets are $20 each or three for $50, and all proceeds are to benefi t the club.
