Plattsburgh Women’s March draws crowd » pg. 3

Plattsburgh leaders offer divergent forecasts for 2018 Business is booming in town and county, but city continues to bring finances to heel

City of Plattsburgh have outlined their visions for their respective localities. But while the town and city have portrayed a rosy outlook, the city’s fiscal challenges remain an immediate issue, officials said at a North Country Chamber of Commercesponsored event last Thursday.

THE COUNTY

By Pete DeMola EDITOR

PLATTSBURGH | Leaders from Clinton County, the Town of Plattsburgh and the

Business is booming in Clinton County, said Chairman Harry McManus (Area 1). McManus painted a portrait of a county that’s never been in better shape, with a low tax rate, strong economic development strategy, stable

government and a recently-hatched shared services plan with neighboring localities that is predicted to save the county $700,000 this year. “The state of Clinton County has never been stronger,” McManus told the sold-out crowd at the Holiday Inn. “By almost any measure, Clinton County is great financial condition, and is in a strong position to continue that fiscal stability.” Plattsburgh International Airport is poised for liftoff, he said, updating attendees on a series of state and federal-funded efforts designed to draw in more passengers and strengthen

its role as a conduit with Canada, driving regional economic development in the process. “The terminal expansion is near complete,” he said. And a new federal inspection station designed to expedite the processing of foreign passengers should be completed by spring. Service to Washington, D.C. would begin by June or early-July, he said. Officials continue to seek a hotelier for the site after they failed to secure $2 million in state funding for a proposed 80-room hotel last December. » Forecasts Cont. on pg. 9

With uptick in house fires, officials warn against heaters Cold weather snap has seen rise in incidents By Elizabeth Izzo

Plattsburgh jeweler closes shop After 56 years in business, it’s lights out at Lights Jewelry By Elizabeth Izzo STA FF W RITER

PLATTSBURGH | Authorities are cautioning residents to implement proper safety precautions when combating the cold. In the wake of record-breaking temperatures this winter, many people have turned to external heaters to stay warm. But the units have been the cause

of numerous fires around the region, including a blaze that gutted a fraternity house in downtown Plattsburgh earlier this month, officials said. Clinton County Emergency Services Director Eric Day said that just in the last three weeks, at least three fires in the county could be contributed to external heaters. “I can tell you — that’s a lot,” he said. The Plattsburgh City Fire Department has responded to four calls so far this month, according to Fire Chief Scott Lawliss. The culprit is often external heaters plugged into lead cords rather than outlets themselves, he said. » Fire safety Cont. on pg. 7
