Board concerned about Midd solar-array

NEW HAVEN Ñ New Haven Select Board members Doug Tolles and Jim Walsh recently contacted Town of Middlebury officials to express their concerns over what they believe is inadequate landscaping screening that has been put in place at the new solar array adjacent to Field Days Road.

Board supports Shard Villa Road gas project MIDDLEBURY Ñ The Middlebury Select Board signed a letter reaffirming its support for the Renewable Natural Gas Biomethane Project proposed for Shard Villa Road in Salisbury, which is now before the Vermont Public Service Board for review.

Under an agreement between Middlebury College and Goodrich Farm in Salisbury, the project would pipe manure-generated methane gas from the farm and through existing Vermont Gas infrastructure to the Middlebury campus, where it would be used to further reduce the college’s consumption of No. 6 fuel oil.

The Middlebury Select Board initially signed its letter of support for the project in August 2014.

STORM DAMAGE

The remnants of Tropical Storm Bill passed through the Champlain Valley last weekend along with a line of unrelated thunderstorms. Heavy rain soaked Addison and Rutland counties Saturday and again on Sunday night. Gusty winds accompanied the storms. Residents of this house, located at approximately 69 Court St. in Middlebury, woke up June 22 to a veritable forest in their street-facing yard. A large tree split in half and enveloped the lawn, just missing the structure.

Shawn Shouldice, state director of the National Federation of Independent Business, called Vermont’s new tax hike ‘not sustainable.’

MONTPELIER Ñ ItÕ s been one month since the Vermont Legislature passed $63 million in new taxes, but leaders of the state’s top trade groups say taxpayers are already feeling the after-effects of the binge.

While taxes from the legislative session came in bits and pieces, documents from the state’s Joint Fiscal Office list the total damages: $32.3 million in new General Fund revenue, $14 million in property tax increases related to the education bill, $7.6 million for the water quality bill, $3.2 million for the health care bill, $3 million in new Education Fund revenues and a $2.9 million increase for special funds.

Gov. Peter Shumlin and House Speaker Shap Smith, D-Morrisville, hailed the session as one of the “most productive,” but trade groups in Vermont say their members are struggling to handle such productivity when it comes to taxes.

“We’re always sensitive to taxes we have that our neighbors do not,” Jim Harrison, president at Vermont Retail and Grocers Association, said.

Of the various taxes that pertain to grocers and

retailers, Harrison said the soda tax is creating the biggest stir so far.

“We had a webinar with the tax department, and it became very clear that itÕ s not soda as you think of soft drinks. ItÕ s sweetened beverages that are less than 51 percent juice, which is a wide variety of juice drink combinations, ice teas, certain flavored waters, energy drinks, soda,” Harrison said.

According to Harrison, the webinar conducted for the trade organization on Tuesday confused some members who assumed the sales tax was limited to items like Coke and Pepsi. While Harrison says he knew about the nuances of the tax, the fine print caught some people — including some lawmakers — by surprise. Ò I had a call from a legislator this morning saying, ‘I thought we passed a soda tax.’ Well, you didn’t pass a soda tax, you passed a soft drink tax, and the definition is anything but a soda,” he said.

Based on explanations given to the group, the tax applies to flavored waters, but not bottled or seltzer water. It includes iced tea, but not unsweetened iced tea. It covers cranberry juice cocktail, but not orange juice. Since the tax applies to a broad range of sugary drinks, Harrison said it “probably brings in more revenue.”

Coffee roasted for friends Vermont Coffee Company

By Lou Varricchio

MIDDLEBURY Ñ For serious consumers of Coffea arabica, thereÕ s nothing in the world like a great cup of coffee, and Vermont Coffee Company of Middlebury helps make many great cups of coffee— roasting on the order of 750,000 pounds of the dark bean just last year.

Celebrating

46 Years of Growing Plants!

Unlike those perfect, often-elusive ocean waves surfboarders chase around the world, you donÕ t have to travel very far for the coffee lovers’ version of the perfect wave.

In addition to a big, bold line of handpicked, organic whole beans that come from the best coffee-growing regions on planet Earth, Vermont Coffee Company has just opened a new public cafe right at its 7,800 square feet facility on Exchange Street.

While you can buy Vermont Coffee Company beans at your local grocery store, food co-op or even online at the company’s website, you can also enjoy a fresh cup in Vermont Coffee’s new, relaxed coffee shop when youÕ re visiting Addison CountyÕ s shire town. (For Middlebury residents, making the Exchange Street cafe part of your daily coffee, breakfast or lunch run is a no-brainer.)

Back in the 1970s, Vermont Coffee Company’s Founder, President and CEO Paul Ralston started the business with a single, antique coffee roaster set up in the window of the Bristol Bakery; it has grown, quietly and steadily, ever since—even a brief business hiatus helped to percolate the philosophy behind tis amazing, local success story.

Ralston’s company, with its 26 employees, is something to watch; it’s another jewel-in-the-crown of local businesses with heart, soul, community vision, and a green product that’s truly worth bragging about.

“We’re a small-town roaster located in Middlebury,” according to Ralston. “We embrace fair-trade relationships throughout our coffee business. We roast certified organic coffees, and we’ve developed a roasting style that creates big, bold coffee.”

Ralston brings a unique philosophy to his business. Even his employees are proud to echo the founder’s words.

“For us, fair trade is a philosophy, not a flavor,” according to Lily Hinrichsen, head of marketing for the coffee business. Ò We treat coffee like fresh produce, and we want you to enjoy it fresh.”

Published by New Market Press, Inc.

Vermont Coffee Company’s Founder, President and CEO Paul Ralston stands behind his big, bold coffee products (and the antique coffee roaster that started it all).

Hinrichsen noted that her boss sincerely backs up his firm’s founding motto, “Coffee Roasted for Friends.”

“It’s more than a slogan,” Ralston said. “It’s really our mission, our reason for being in this business. Coffee is a social stimulus that brings people together to share ideas and stories, and when people come together, a community is formed and friends are made.”

Carrying the friendship idea forward, Vermont Coffee Company has given viable coffee-tree seeds to its customers who enjoy gardening and might like to try their green thumbs at growing a genuine coffee tree indoors. The staff has its own “bonsai” coffee plant that, grown from seed, is now 8 years old.

Vermont Coffee Company’s beans arrive from various fair-trade organic coffee plantations located in the Americas as well as Indonesia and Africa. While USA coffees come from Hawaii and Puerto Rico, Ralston said he hasnÕ t offered those coffee varieties yet because of pricing and limited availability. But there’s plenty of good coffee to go around to suit everyoneÕ s taste.

The story of Vermont Coffee Company’s beans, after they leave the source, starts in the Port of Montreal. The company brings its coffee products by ship where they then make their way to the new state-of-the-art, energy efficient roasting, processing and packaging facility located on Exchange Street in Middlebury.

Check It Out: Vermont Coffee Company’s new cafe is located 1197 Exchange St. in Middlebury.

The cafe serves fresh-roasted brew and espresso drinks, simple breakfasts and lunches, grab and go items, free WiFi, and free parking. The cafe is opened Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 2 p.m.

For more details, call 802-3982776.

Warner’s courage, character remembered

S

ome months ago, this weekly commentary devoted space to look at the life of Seth Warner, Vermont’s forgotten patriot-hero.

A week ago, a reader e-mailed us with a few interesting facts and ideas to add to the Warner story; we hadn’t included them. With July 4 approaching, it’s important consider the pivotal role that Warner and the Battle of Hubbardton played in America’s early history. And it started right here in Vermont.

Hubbardton was a unique battle in that, while it was a defeat for the Americans, it proved to be a quirky one in the annals of American military historyÑ that is, the defeat contributed to the stunning rebel victory at Saratoga three months later.

On July 7, 1777, British and allied German troops ran into American resistance in a sparsely settled, narrow valley below Mt. Zion in Hubbardton.

“After capturing Fort Ticonderoga, the British, under Lt. Gen. John Burgoyne, pursued a retreating Continental army under Maj. Gen. Arthur St. Clair,” according to author Bruce Venter, who wrote a new book on the subject “In the fields and hills around Hubbardton, a tenacious American rear guard of about 1,200 derailed the British general’s plan for a quick march to Albany… The Battle of Hubbardton was perhaps the loss that saved the war.”

The British won a tactical victory that day, but the losses ended up costing the Redcoats dearly in Saratoga. Ò Patriots, under Col. Seth Warner, Col. Ebenezer Francis and Col. Nathan Hale (the other, lesser known Nathan Hale), left the British and Germans bloodied while also saving untold casualties from their own army,” Venter writes. “Burgoyne and his weakened force ultimately surrendered at Saratoga on Oct. 17, 1777, paving the way for a French alliance with the colonies and American independence.”

Col. Moses Robinson of Bennington long remembered Seth Warner’s patriotism, courage and character: “Col. Warner was of noble personal appearance, very tall, not less than six feet two inches; large frame, but thin in flesh and apparently of great bodily strength. His features were regular, strongly marked and indicative of mental strength, a fixedness of purpose, and yet of much benevolent good nature.”

After the revolution, Warner ran afoul of the more popular, more flamboyant Ethan Allen.

Eventually, though, independent Vermont was welcomed into the union of states as the 14th state and its efforts to cozy up with Britain were forgotten. No matter, Warner apparently never forgot, and he probably took his disgust with the Green Mountain Boy’s quirky diplomatic tendencies to the grave. He died at the age of 41 in 1784.

It looked like Warner was uncomfortable with Vermont’s role in putting out reunification feelers with Great Britain. Warner died believing any olive branch extended to Britain was an insult and a betrayal. And who can slight him for such feelings? A long and bloody war for independence had just ended. Why take a step back to don the yoke of crown again?

Green peppers and the summer solstice

I

t’s summer. Some of us pay attention to the solstice.

Others donÕ t. I didnÕ t stare at the western sky and my watch to see if it really was the longest day of the year.

For me, it was just another date on the calendar. IÕ ve seen many of them in my long life and most have been just fine.

Some of us are not happy unless we have something to gripe about and the weather is almost always in the top three on the list. Our North Country spring weather was variable, interesting and probably not record-setting.

It was what it was. The ground warmed enough for Kaye to put some beautiful flowers in the ground and I got dirt under my fingernails while planting vegetable plants and seeds.

by Gordie Little To say they are all thriving would not be quite accurate.

Most are still upright, though, and leaves chewed off by our lovely, little, brown bunny are beginning to be replaced by new ones. My original cucumber plants apparently grew downward rather than upward, so I planted others and they are fine. Most of the bean plants are thriving and a few are showing signs of blossoms. ThatÕ s a good thing.

When Beatrice the bunny nibbled the leaves off about three tomato plants, I was about to give up the ghost; but generous rain and a few warm afternoons worked wonders and they all appear to be bouncing back. Well, perhaps bouncing isn’t the right word. Struggling would be more like it. Suffice to say, they wonÕ t be ready for the metal cages for some time.

Fresh garden tomatoes are our favorites, so I must guard and nurture them until harvest.

Kaye found half an envelope of last year’s green bean seeds and we put them underground, hoping for the best.

Well, the best was that just two of them popped up and we’re thinking of a higher fence to keep Beatrice (we just named her this morning) away.

What can you say about green peppers? The world would be sadder without them and our plants are doing well, thank you.

I rarely take my coffee out to the back porch at 5 a.m. each day unless the thermometer reads more than 50 degrees.

My Facebook friends expect my daily posting of the current warmth and wind and sky conditions. On the day I wrote this, it was over 62 with no wind. Ideal conditions for morning contemplation. I did notice another crop that is doing much better than I expected or wanted. That involves green things popping up along the river bank. The copious sky water has given the shrubs and bushes and saplings a huge growth spurt sending them above the fence and obstructing our view.

I see a trimming session in my near future, but Kaye is trembling at the thought. There is something about an old, fat man straddling the rocks while balancing a hedge trimmer and a long power cord that conjures up a nasty scene. Yes, I have tumbled over the bank a couple times and have cracked a few ribs. I have bent a few eyeglass frames and have moaned and groaned while clawing my way up to safety.

Can you blame her? Being a sometimes bumbling southpaw with an impressive resume full of such near disasters, I guess I have a negative history of river bank rambling. The best way to handle the situation is to grab my long extension pole with a cutter and a long rope and tackle that green mass from the safe side of the fence. Of course that leaves the possibility of getting my two left feet tangled in the rope.

Whatever happens, your chances of seeing video highlights of these shenanigans, are nil. For such tomfoolery, no cameras are allowed. But, if you happen to drive by and hear loud words that are unseemly from the area behind our Morrisonville home, and a sigh from the sprightly little lady watching it all happen—you’ll know I’m just trying to live up to my reputation.

Happy summer, everyone.

Hinesburg searching for new town officials

By Gail Callahan

HINESBURG — The Town of Hinesburg is poised to begin employment searches for candidates to fill positions at the town hall.

In all, Hinesburg officials are looking to fill three positions; an administrative assistant, a part-time zoning administrator and a development review coordinator.

Hinesburg Town Administrator Trevor Lashua indicated he was fine-tuning the job descriptions and would likely publish the openings by the middle of June.

Lashua indicated he would likely oversee the hiring of the administrative assistant, but search committees would comb through resumes, looking for candidates to interview for the positions.

As indicated in town regulations, the Hinesburg Planning Commission would recommend a candidate for the zoning administrator position, and the town Select Board would confirm the choice.

The development review coordinator is a new position. The person sitting in the zoning administrator’s seat is replacing long-time Town of Hinesburg employee Peter Erb, who is leaving after 14 years on the job.

According to Lashua, the new zoning administrator will oversee enforcement duties and all other tasks associated with that of a zoning administrator. The hourly salary range is expected to fall between $17 to $20 per hour, Lashua said. That financial amount falls in line with the line item in the Hinesburg Municipal budget voters approved at March Town Meeting.

Lashua said the town anticipated placing employment ads in

Addison organization is first Kiva Zip trustee in state MIDDLEBURY — Addison County Economic Development Corporation officials announced that the organization was recently selected as the first Kiva Zip trustee in the State of Vermont.

Kiva Zip is a loan program within the global non-profit Kiva, based in San Francisco, that offers zero percent interest loans for small businesses and entrepreneurs in the United States through crowdfunding.

Kiva Zip trustees are individuals or organizations who recommend borrowers to the Kiva Zip program.

Trustees are an integral part of the model because of their ability to vouch for an entrepreneur’s character and reputation.

“We are thrilled to develop this partnership with Kiva Zip,” said Robin Scheu, executive director of ACEDC. “It’s a wonderful opportunity to support a wide range of businesses and entrepreneurs that we might not normally serve. It helps entrepreneurs gain access to funding to start or grow a business. And it’s a way to make an impact in the communities in which these businesses operate. We are delighted to have another ‘tool’ in our toolbox to support our businesses.”

Loans are typically in the $500–$5,000 range, though returning borrowers may apply for loans up to $20,000.

Money is crowd-funded on the Kiva Zip website by individuals around the world who invest as little as $5 each. The process only takes a few weeks.

Loans may be used for nearly any business purpose such as investing in new equipment, purchasing inventory, hiring staff, expanding product lines, marketing or advertising.

As a trustee, ACEDC will review business plans prior to endorsing a borrower, and ensure ongoing technical support both before and after a loan is disbursed. Entrepreneurs who are

interested in learning more may contact ACEDC at www.addisoncountyedc.org or call 802-388-7953. For more information on Kiva Zip, please visit KivaZip.org.

Since 1993, ACEDC has loaned over $3.5 million to dozens of local businesses, creating or retaining more than 1200 jobs in Addison County.

Since 2013, Kiva Ziphas disbursed loans to about 1,400 borrowers via approximately 15,000 lenders.

Town reviews junk ordinance MIDDLEBURY Ñ The Middlebury Select Board held a public hearing May 12 to take comments regarding proposed amendments to the Town of Middlebury Ordinance for the Outdoor Storage of Junk and Junk Vehicles.

Police Chief Tom Hanley noted during the hearing that the proposed amendments, which are intended to strengthen the enforcement options available to the Town, offer five key revisions to the current ordinance: a change from criminal to civil enforcement, establishment of maximum and waiver fines, allowing tickets to be written for continuing offenses.

The ordinance will become effective 40 days after adoption; however, if within 40 days of adoption, a referendum petition is filed, the ordinance will not become effective until after the question of repeal is voted.

Students receives ACFA scholarships ADDISON—The Addison County Firefighters Assoc. Scholarship Committee announced that Jason Clark, Michael Ingwersen, Sawyer Kamman and Janelle Mandigo were chosen to receive scholarships warded to local students. The scholarships amount to $500 each.

Clark, a VUHS senior, is the son of Bradley and Sandra Clark of Addison. He will attend Champlain College.

Ingwersen is the son of Kurt and Kate Ingwersen of Addison.

A 2014 graduate of VUHS, Ingwersen is attending Vermont Tech-

The renewable natural gas project in Salisbury, which will convert organic waste and cow manure to pipeline-quality natural gas and other beneficial products, is a step closer to reality, with strong support from Vermont Gas Systems, Inc. an Smith of Lincoln Renewable Gas submitted an application for the project to the Vermont Public Service Board on May 1.

“The Lincoln Natural Gas Project is a great example of preventing and reducing waste by creating a renewable energy product,” said Don Rendall, Vermont Gas President and CEO. “A project like this supports Vermont agriculture, reduces net carbon emissions that affect the climate, and provides customers with the renewable energy choice.”

The project anticipates using manure from thousands of Vermont cows as well as organic by-products and wastes that will soon be disallowed from Vermont landfills.

Vermont Gas will buy approximately 25 percent of the project’s gas production, and Middlebury College is set to acquire an even larger share, to help achieve its nationally significant carbon-neutrality goal.

Vermont Gas will construct a distribution pipeline, about five miles in length, from Salisbury to Middlebury. The distribution pipeline will link to the company’s groundbreaking “gas island” pipeline network in Middlebury, which serves business customers.

It may bring more confusion as well.

It’s not entirely clear which beverages are excluded under the bill’s definitions. While Gatorade drinks are included, 5-Hour Energy shots might not be, Harrison said, since they are categorized as a dietary supplement.

In addition, while it’s understood sales taxes are paid by consumers, the so-called soda tax doesn’t apply to consumers who purchase beverages using the SNAP food stamp program.

The complexities, Harrison said, could burden merchants.

“In addition to raising the money from consumers — what’s intended to raise the $8 million or $9 million dollars — it also adds expense to the retailer, because it’s not a straightforward tax like we would think of on paper goods or other nonfood items.”

Other trade organizations are concerned about other taxes.

According to the head of the Vermont Realtors, Vermonters should be worried about higher residential and nonresidential property tax rates, as well as the hike to the property transfer tax.

“Property tax reform is the biggest thing we’re disappointed in because we think that’s the only thing thatÕ s going to save a lot of the issues weÕ re facing in Vermont,” Isaac Chavez, chief executive officer of Vermont Realtors, told Watchdog.

“We have a negative influx of residents, and we have zero growth in high school and college graduates staying here in Vermont. EverybodyÕ s leaving the state once they can to find opportunity.”

Chavez, whose trade group is the largest in the state, said higher taxes threaten a housing market in the middle of “a fragile recovery.” He said while second-home and vacation home markets are recovering in Vermont, first-time buyers may be unable to afford homes.

“Because property taxes are so high, it’s really hard for younger, first-time home buyers to get into the market. When your mortgage equals your property taxes, that’s a tough place to live,” he said.

“You buy a $150,000 house and your mortgage and interest payments are about $800 (per month), but then when you add the property taxes it jumps up to $1,400 or $1,500 dollars. It’s just too much to bear.”

Shawn Shouldice, director of the Vermont chapter of the National Federation for Independent Business, said the two-cent hike in the nonresiden-

www.addision-eagle.com tal property tax rate — which jumped from $1.515 per $100 of assessed value to $1.535 —will hurt small businesses.

“Shifting a greater proportion of the property tax increase to small businesses is detrimental to their survival,” she said.

Shouldice called the tax package “not sustainable,” and she predicted the hikes would be negative for NFIB members across the state.

“It’s unfortunate that some political leaders don’t understand that small business is the economic engine of our state. They should be doing everything in their power to help them grow and prosper.”

Harrison also was concerned about the impact of higher property taxes.

“It’s another one of those fixed operating costs that at some point you have to pick up by increasing your over all volume,” he said. “If you can’t do that, you have to figure out how to get a little bit higher margin on your items you are selling.”

If they can’t figure that out, Harrison said, “they won’t be in business at some point.”

Defenders of the taxes say they are necessary to fill the state’s budget gap of $113 million, and to fund important efforts such as the clean-up of Lake Champlain.

Tom Pelham, co-founder of Campaign for Vermont, and former tax commissioner during the Gov. Jim Douglas administration, says the Legislature’s tax-and-spend binge is ultimately selfdefeating.

“Public sector expenditures rest on the shoulders of the private sector. It’s the private sector that creates the surpluses that can be taxed by the public sector to do stuff,” Pelham said.

In a tax analysis posted this week on the Campaign for Vermont website, Pelham argues lawmakers who think they have narrowly targeted the wealthy for higher taxes have hit the middle class as well.

“The income tax increase whacks the middle class. In Vermont they have to, because thatÕ s the only place the money is,” he told Watchdog.

The problem with a soak-the-rich approach, Pelham said, is that Vermont lacks a wealthy class common to other New England states. He warned if lawmakers don’t spend more time listening to the state’s job providers, businesses will leave the state.

“There’s an infrastructure in Vermont that’s becoming proportionally more powerful than the private sector job providers,” he said. The private sector job providers are heading elsewhere. They’re not going to fight about it, they’re just going to move along, which is what appears to be happen-

FAREWELL SIGN — Peg and Sandy Martin of Middlebury couldn’t bear to see the concrete island at the former Greg’s Meat Market, located at the corner of Elm and Seymour streets in downtown Middlebury, without its traditional flowers. The couple planted a few plants, along with a personal sign, expressing that they miss the market which closed earlier this spring.

Letters to the Editor

The Eagle’s Grand Prize To the editor: I just wanted to thank you for creating such a wonderful yearly event—the Grand Prize. I’ve been actively participating in the hunt for the Grand Prize for three years now, and was fortunate enough to find it this year. Before I found the certificate, I knew of a few other people also participating in the hunt, some of them co-workers of mine at Middlebury College. But since I found the prize, I have had many people approach me and congratulate me, and the tell me they where looking for it too. I couldnÕ t believe the number of people that I knew that participated, and can only imagine how many others there are. Also, I’ve had people

say their going to start playing and give me competition for next years hunt. It was a good excuse to round up my family, jump in the car, and explore many different parts of Addison County. My kids call it a treasure hunt, and my wife just love’s to help pick apart the clues, and figure out all the possible meanings. Some of which were real stumpers. It was very educational on many levels for myself and my family. But anyways, I just want to give my appreciation to Mark Brady and the newspaper crew for all the hard work on those genius clues, and putting together such a wonderful kickoff to the spring every year. I know that I don’t only speak for myself when I say, Good job guys. And keep the clues coming! We can’t wait till next spring. Thanks for the great times and learning.

Stephen Santor Leicester EditorÕ s note: Congratulations, Steve, and thanks for playing this fantastic game which is really the cleverest of treasure hunts, if we may proudly say so. Readers like you keep the Grand Prize going making it VermontÕ s most successful local game. The game was created by Mark Brady. It began on-air when he owned WFAD-AM. The game made its transition to the Eagle newspaper, along with Mark, in 2001. It was also played nationally, online, for a brief period. ThatÕ s a lot of dough payed out over the years, all thanks to our supportive advertisers.
