Frontier rakes in state grant funds — but questions persist over spotty service Local subscribers have long complained about provider

By Pete DeMola EDITOR

WILMINGTON | The state announced $103 million in funding to provide broadband for the North Country last week.

The third and final round of grant funding, part of a $341 million package to wire 122,285 homes and locations statewide, comes as the state nears the finish line for an ambitious effort to provide universal broadband by the end of the year.

Just 20 percent of the North Country had internet access four years ago, said Gov. Andrew Cuomo.

“Now with round three, 100 percent internet access in the North Country,” Cuomo said in Plattsburgh last week.

The state has pledged up to $500 million, which will be leveraged with private investment topping $1 billion.

The “last mile” funding is designed to cover

where we have internet all day.”

Repairmen have told Rose he’s in a “high volume area.” But his neighborhood contains just three or four houses.

The service deteriorated to the extent that Roses now relies on a wi-fi hotspot at his girlfriend’s house in Bloomingdale.

Rose also recounted stories of poorly maintained equipment, with fallen trees laying for lengthy periods of time on cables.

“It’s unbelievable,” he said. “Tree limbs, heavy with snow, laying right on the cable.

They need to trim those trees.”

But Frontier is the only provider in the community, he said, and his hands are tied.

“It’s disgusting,” he said. “Why can’t they have competition?”

While he may be the most vocal, he said complaints are common around town.

“It’s not just me. Everybody’s got the same damn problem, and everyone is so frustrated.”

the thorniest, most remote areas of the state, many of which rely on spotty satellite service — or have no coverage at all — due to the prohibitive cost of installation.

The governor said 99.9 percent of the state will have access to speeds of 100 mbps or greater at the program’s completion, with 25 mbps for the most “rural and remote areas.”

Frontier Communications received $9.7 million in state funds to provide service to 2,735 locations in the Finger Lakes, Southern Tier and the North Country.

But complaints abound about slow or nonexistent service being offered by the provider.

‘FRUSTRATED AS HELL’

Wilmington resident Bob Rose said he’s been battling with Frontier for months over slow and intermittent service, calling it “disgustingly inadequate.”

It’s a familiar routine: The modem blinks, Rose loses service, and a phone call results in a visit by local servicemen — when they come. Even scheduling poses a problem, with long wait times.

“If I’m lucky, we have an internet connection 60 percent of the time,” Rose told The Sun. “We’ve been frustrated as hell over here, a lot of calls. We might have 1 in 10 days

SUPERVISOR AGAINST FUNDS

Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced nearly $210 million in direct state investment for the final round of grant funding for the state’s universal broadband program on Jan. 31, 2018.

North Country braces for NAFTA negotiations Business community wary of disrupting “gold standard” of binational economic partnership

PLATTSBURGH | The North Country Chamber of Commerce has released its annual survey of businesses.

Maintaining strong trade relations between the U.S. and Canada remains a top priority for the local business community.

“When asked if they agree that the U.S.-Canada economic partnership is working for the North Country and

needs to be differentiated from other trade agreements, focusing on ways to further build and strengthen it, a resounding 98 percent agreed,” said North Country Chamber of Commerce President Garry Douglas.

But the upcoming NAFTA negotiations present a stormcloud over an otherwise sunny forecast.

“It’s the only possible cloud hanging over that 98 percent Business Confidence Index,” he said.

‘DO NO HARM’

President Donald Trump campaigned on a promise to renegotiate what he said were unfair trade agreements that hand unfair advantages to Mexico and Canada.

Trump signaled as recently as last month he’d use the upcoming NAFTA negotiations to extract funding for his border wall with Mexico. » NAFTA Cont. on pg. 12

PERU REJECTS BOARD APPOINTMENTS

Peru Town Board may remain without a fifth councilman until November

PERU | One month after former councilman Brandy McDonald took office as town supervisor, his seat on the board remains vacant.

And it may stay vacant until an election can be held in November.

The town’s council is allowed, by law, to appoint someone to the position until the next election, McDonald said.

Two candidates have announced interest in the seat: Marque Lou Moffett and former councilman Don McBrayer. » Peru board Cont. on pg. 9

Business confidence in North Country at record high State investment, national economy spurs positive business survey

By Elizabeth Izzo STA FF W RITER

PLATTSBURGH | Businesses throughout the region are more confident than ever that the area’s economy is on the rise.

The North Country Chamber of Commerce released the results of its annual issue survey last Tuesday. From 4,000 responses from Clinton, Franklin, Essex, Hamilton and northern Warren counties, 96 percent of business owners are confident that their sales and activities will grow or remain steady this year, an uptick of 3 percent over last year.

“Nobody understands the economy better than the businesses on the frontlines,” Chamber President Garry Douglas told The Sun. “And this result is the highest it’s been in 20 years.”

The biggest factors in this collective thumbsup from the business community: More than half of businessowners are expecting the national economy to grow.

The area has received a stream of good news and major investments in recent months, including the launch of Norsk Titanium, a manufacturing facility expected to generate 250 new jobs by the end of this year, a $38 million state grant designed to boost enplanements at Plattsburgh International Airport, the opening of Clinton Community College’s Institute for Advanced Manufacturing and the city’s $10 million Downtown Revitalization Initiative grant from the state.

And tourism numbers in the area, in particular from Canadian visitors, remain strong and continue to bolster sales tax revenue, ac-

cording to Douglas.

“All of these things are leading the idea that this is going to be a good year,” he said at a press conference on Jan. 30.

CHAMBER UNDERSCORES CANADA CONNECTION

Every year, as part of the chamber’s annual survey, businesses are asked which legislative or financial issues are most important to them.

This year, maintaining strong trade relations between the U.S. and Canada remains a top priority, Douglas said.

“When asked if they agree that the U.S., Canada economic partnership is working for the North Country and needs to be differentiated from other trade agreements, focusing on ways to further build and strengthen it, a resounding 98 percent agreed,” he said.

That’s a 5 percent increase over last year, when only 93 percent agreed.

“Valuing, protecting and enhancing the U.S., Canada economic relationship is the region’s number one priority on the federal level.”

Protecting the U.S., Canada economic relationship also ranked as the top priority in 2017.

Douglas is keeping an eye on the renegotiations of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), which he said presents a culture of uncertainty for the business community here. “(The NAFTA negotiations) are giving us cause for concern and angst,” he said.

“It’s important to get that strong affirmation that we get this right.”

The NAFTA pact, negotiated by President George H.W. Bush and signed into law by President Bill Clinton, spurred trade between the U.S., Canada and Mexico by reducing Mexico’s tariffs on products from the two countries.

But President Donald Trump has argued the agreement incentivizes companies to shift labor-intensive manufacturing to Mexico.

“Hopefully by the end of the year NAFTA

Photo by Elizabeth Izzo will be modernized and updated,” Douglas said.

“But we must remember the hippocratic oath: first, do no harm.”

KEEPING TAXES LOW ON PRIORITY-LIST

The survey also underscored local business’ desire to keep property taxes low.

Over 90 percent of businesses said that state government this year should make the property tax cap permanent.

The tax cap limits tax increases to 2 percent in each municipality unless local officials pass a resolution to override it.

A WalletHub report released last year shows that New Yorkers are some of the highest taxed citizens in the country, with property taxes accounting for 4.55 percent of a total 12.94 percent total tax burden. (Comparatively, California has a tax burden of 9.52 percent.)

Ninety-eight percent of businesses want the current state budget gap — which is estimated at around $4.4 billion — to be closed without an increase in taxes to pay for it.

A total of 86 percent support a permanent 2 percent cap on the growth in annual state spending.

Between 2015 and 2016, total government spending in New York state increased by nearly 5 percent, from $143.9 billion to $150.1 billion, according to a report from the National Association of Budget Officers.

Similar to last year, businesses also want to see more support for workforce development and training, Douglas said.

“There is 93 percent endorsement of greater and more flexible state and federal support for workforce development and training, aimed at addressing skill gaps and meeting the needs of North Country employers.”

More highlights from the survey include 95 percent support for continued state and federal efforts to close remaining broadband service gaps in the region — Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced last Wednesday $100 million in funding to provide broadband for underserved areas in the North Country — 92 percent support for shared services incentives between local governments, an 88 percent opposition to Project Labor Agreements attached to state projects and 87 percent support for reducing state healthcare taxes as a way to lower health insurance premiums. ■

Dems running to unseat Stefanik announce fundraising totals Don Boyajian, Tanya Boone and Tedra Cobb lead money race

By Pete DeMola EDITOR

ELIZABETHTOWN | Democrats are chomping at the bit to replace Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-Willsboro) in a primary that has seen nine candidates announce so far.

With fourth quarter fundraising totals now filed with the Federal Election Commission, Don Boyajian leads the money race with nearly $145,000 raised during the fourth quarter, and $353,478 generated since declaring his candidacy last August.

The funds came from 1,107 total donors.

Of those, 561 are from New York state residents, and 81 reside in the 21st Congressional District, or 7.3 percent.

Nearly half of those donors, 522, offered $200 or less, a traditional signal of grassroots support.

Stefanik raised $279,560 during the fourth quarter and has $1,022,129 cash-on-hand, her campaign announced last week.

The second-term lawmaker raised $3.1 million in 2016 when she defeated Democrat Mike Derrick by 35 points for a second term.

BRIEFS

Boyajian, who works at an Albany law firm co-founded by his father and resides in Cambridge in Washington County, said the haul makes him the leading candidate to deny Stefanik a third term.

“Our strong financial quarter is a testament to the relationships we have built in the community, and it puts us in an excellent position to emerge from the Democratic primary to take on Congresswoman Stefanik in the fall,” Boyajian said in a statement.

Boyajian will soon embark on a “Bluegrass and Politics” music tour and “Don on the Clock” jobs tour, as well as traditional campaign events, said a spokesman.

Year-end campaign finance reports to the FEC were due Jan. 31.

TOTALS ANNOUNCED

Clocking in second in the fundraising race is Tanya Boone, who announced a $141,000 haul with donations coming from 450 individuals. The campaign did not provide an additional breakdown, but said the Granville-based former union organizer and businesswoman had $105,000 cash-on-hand.

The campaign did not directly respond to inquiries asking about individual donors and how many were from within the district.

Tedra Cobb announced a fourth quarter haul of about $85,400 with $162,697 cashon-hand. The former St. Lawrence County lawmaker and business consultant reported $214,296 in total contributions, and raised

Alzheimer’s, dementia lectures slated

PERU | The Alzheimer’s Association, in conjunction with the Peru Community Church, will be providing educational presentations at the Church Fellowship Center at Elm and Pleasant Streets in Peru (Routes 22 and 22B). On Monday, Feb. 5 at 1 p.m. the topic is “Understanding and Responding to Dementia-Related Behavior.” On Feb. 20, March 6 and March 20 at 6 p.m., “Living with Alzheimer’s: an education program” will be presented for family members and friends who are becoming caregivers or support caregivers. The sessions are open to all, and are about one hour in length. The church office

politics a key campaign platform, and said he will not accept money from PACs. He raised $29,100 last year and has $4,817.43 cash-on-hand.

“I’m very proud that hardworking folks have supported my campaign — gas station clerks, contractors, dishwashers,” Nelson said in a statement. “These are the folks that need better representation from our government.”

Ronald Kim hasn’t formally filed numbers, but anticipated “approximately $5,000 raised and $5,000 on hand (approximately).”

Katie Wilson’s campaign did not provide fundraising numbers to a reporter after multiple requests, but the FEC website lists the campaign raised $83,640.49 between June 27, 2017 and Dec. 31, and has $16,331.06 cash on hand.

Wilson raised $45,207 in the third quarter.

Greenwich Town Supervisor Sara Idleman and David Mastrianni, a Saratoga oncologist, did not post financial reports.

But Idleman indicated she was raising money at a forum in South Glens Falls last month.

“One-hundred percent of my money has come in from Washington County, I know that for a fact,” Idleman said. “We have gotten some $1,000 donations. I’ll take them, trust me, I’ll take them.” ■ To read this story in its entirety, visit suncommunitynews.com

Thoughts from Behind the Pressline

I believe in America

Last week, I reflected on an event from the past but didn’t have the space to bring it into the

By Dan Alexander context of today’s • PUBLISHER • governmental affairs.

I believe in America, even with all her faults, warts and indisputable past.

I believe each generation has the opportunity to learn from the past, and do their best not to erase the past, but to correct where needed.

I believe in the rule of law, fairness and equality for all who call America home.

I believe we are each responsible for pulling our weight, working hard and helping others who are less fortunate.

I believe in a Supreme Being who has blessed our nation and expects the very best from each of us.

These are the beliefs that were consistent with my upbringing at home, in school, at church, and through our media culture. Right always triumphed, even against might.

I am a little confused at some of today’s cultural changes.

Not long ago, nearly every American could readily agree with those statements made above. Today in some circles, it’s a risk to even go on the record making such declarations.

The recent release of the controversial Republican FISA memo and the yet to be released interpretations from the Democrats and the judicial system is a reflection on how things have changed. Interpretation implies that the base facts have different definitions leading to different outcomes.

I learned growing up that nothing was more important to our belief in America than basic fairness. When you were wrong or wronged someone, else no matter how trivial, you were required to own up to it and apologize.

Today with facts so blurred, I wonder if we’ve lost our way and how this current state of affairs will play out in future generations.

Will they find the solutions that evade us today? Will some major unforeseen tragic event bring us back to a more united front or will the various factions cause the further splintering of our country?

It seems clear given the outrageous language and actions we see coming from our leaders that we need a major course correction to get back on track. Civility, respect, and the truth must surface above all else.

I for one believe in America and pray that our best days are still ahead as we find our way out of this current state of unrest. ■

From the Editorial Board

Kudos to the state on broadband. Now it’s up to the public to hold providers accountable The state is nearing the end of its fouryear quest to provide universal broadband by the end of 2018.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced the disbursement of the third and final round of grant monies in a visit to Plattsburgh last week.

The governor announced nearly $210 million in direct state investment. Altogether, the state has pledged $500 million, which will be topped with $170 million in federal funds and an equal amount of private monies, making the initiative a $1 billion-plus undertaking.

Once the projects have been implemented, the state promises 100 percent broadband access statewide.

To further break it down, 99.9 percent of New Yorkers will have high speed access, which the state has defined as 100 megabits per second.

That leaves the remaining 0.1 percent of the state’s most “rural and remote areas” — which we can only assume is the Adirondacks — to receive speeds of 25 mbps.

Zeroing on any more precise numbers is a crapshoot, as the state and winning grant providers have said it’s too early to provide that information.

But while the numbers seem infinitesimal, broadband means life and death for our Adirondack communities.

Even just one household or U.S. Census block left behind could be devastating.

The state pledges that the remaining fraction will be covered through satellite service offering speeds of at least 25 mbps.

“One-hundred percent internet access in the North Country,” Cuomo assured

An artist’s work, and his conduct, should be separate To the Editor: Elizabeth Izzo demonstrated a well-balanced approach to the news of the National Gallery of Art decision to cancel the Chuck Close exhibit (The Sun, Feb. 3, 2018).

Elizabeth writes, “... it’s important to note that the court of public opinion and the court of law are two separate things,” implying allegations of sexual misconduct without judicial review are not sufficient grounds for punishment.

Yet, the National Gallery decided to punish this artist by denying him the crowning achievement to his long, successful career.

In closing, she asks: “Should an artist’s conduct and the work he created be separate, too?” She left this a rhetorical question. I’ll provide the answer. Yes! The Uffizi Gallery in Florence

So here’s the question: Does it really count as a win if homes are ostensibly wired for broadband, but the service doesn’t work?

Don’t take it from us, but rather your friends and neighbors across the Adirondacks — from Wilmington to Chesterfield to Indian Lake — who have called us for years with their concerns about Frontier Communications.

We’ve even spoken with some folks who have indicated they will move because they’re so frustrated.

We want to be clear that we support the New NY Broadband Program, and state officials have worked tirelessly in tackling such a visionary project.

They deserve to be commended, and so does the governor.

The program has seen many roadblocks — many of which are outside of Albany’s control, including financial hiccups from providers and the utility companies who must work in tandem with them to install equipment.

Ultimately, the task of monitoring these projects after their completion falls to the state Public Service Commission, who promised to work closely with the BPO to ensure that companies receiving awards, including Frontier, provide good customer service.

The state has done their part.

Now it’s up to customers to ensure their complaints are funneled to the appropriate place, and exercise their rights as consumers to hold these tech companies accountable.

has not sealed a gallery dedicated to Renaissance master Caravaggio, a known thug and cold-blooded murderer, nor removed his paintings. Botticelli was proactive and burned many of his own paintings when he learned that the Church had condemned them as immoral. The works of Picasso, a serial misogynist, have not been removed from the public eye.

Poor Chuck Close, wheelchairbound for over 40 years, re-inventor of the art of portraiture, a modern master assured of his place in the pantheon of history’s great artists, finds himself crucified in the court of public opinion. Long after those who have proven politics to be the deciding factor to show an artist’s work will have fallen into the dustbin of history, Chuck Close will be remembered as the great artist he is.

Oh, and poor Charlie Rose. I ask only rhetorically, what man has not found himself, at some point, in that embarrassing, awkward position of pursuing what he

dignitaries last week.

Details on the satellite service are still fuzzy, state lawmakers admitted.

We’ve heard some local residents criticize the state for throwing in the towel and saying “good enough.”

We disagree with that.

Thirty percent of New Yorkers, or about 2.4 million locations, lacked access to broadband when the state Broadband Program Office launched the program in 2015.

It’s no small feat to wire not only the state’s most remote places, but arguably the most isolated communities in the entire country.

The state really has entered unchartered territory with this project, which is said to be studied by other states as a blueprint.

However, we do have concerns about handing so much grant money to companies like Frontier Communications, who appear to have a long track record of providing sub-par service to existing subscribers.

We reported this week that Frontier has been the recipient of nearly $44 million in state funds, including nearly $10 million as part of last week’s announcement.

Concerns about their service are prolific across the North Country, with even the Essex County Board of Supervisors chairman arguing the Connecticut-based provider shouldn’t be awarded funds if they cannot provide the service — especially to existing customers.

Frontier hasn’t really done anything to assuage our concerns, issuing only vague promises that subscribers will receive 100 mbps.

We want leaders — not children To the Editor: I was reading the Feb. 3 edition.

How tired I am becoming with the antics of our elected so-called leaders.

In the opinion section, I read that the state purchased more land and removed it from the tax rolls. Also in the same article, they admit that the state is facing a $4.4 billion shortfall.

It does not sound like fiscal leadership to me.

Then in the letters section, I read how childish that one party’s politicians are acting just trying to get elected. We the people want leaders not children, like those who acted like spoiled children at the State of the Union.

Also the letter on the media is an opinion that I cannot understand. I have stopped reading the Post Star because of its leftleaning stance (perceived or not, my opinion) along with declining content and increased cost.

Olympic Update

Olympic Villages open in Pyeongchang Olympic Truce depicted by mural as in all games since Turin in 2006

Pyeongchang 2018 Olympic Villages opened doors to their athlete’s quarters last week, ready to welcome some 2,900

By Kim Dedam competitors for the XXIII Winter Games on Feb. 9.

• COLUMNIST • A few U.S. teams arrived over last weekend, including TeamUSA speedskaters.

Longtrack speedskater Brian Hansen shared photos of the new digs, including one tweet of the ice track he had nearly to himself. Hansen is from Illinois.

International Olympic Committee (IOC) President Thomas Bach visited the athletes’ rooms, venues and athletic training facilities, dining commons and living quarters ahead of the formal opening.

“This village will allow the athletes not only to prepare for competition but it will allow the athletes to enjoy the spirit of the Olympic Games and to show what the Olympic Games are about,” he said in a news announcement.

“They are about getting to know each other, they are about making friends, they are about understanding each other, they

are about competing with each other but at the same time sharing your meal and celebrating together. And this will all happen here in this place, in this Olympic Village.”

The IOC President visited the Gangneung Olympic Village, where most athletes competing in the ice events will live during the games.

He also visited the coastal venues where he saw the Curling Centre, Hockey 1, Gangneung Ice Arena and Gangneung Oval.

On Monday, Feb. 5, Bach inaugurated the official Olympic Truce Mural.

According to Olympic history, “the Olympic Truce dates back to Ancient Greece, where athletes, artists and their families, as well as ordinary pilgrims, could travel in total safety to participate in or attend the Olympic Games, and return afterwards to their respective countries.”

Since the 2006 Olympic Winter Games in Turin, the truce has been represented by a mural.

And athletes and officials who take part in the Games are invited to sign it, inspiring peace through sport, IOC said in unveiling the truce on Monday.

“Given the special circumstances, the time and place of these Olympic Winter Games, it should be clear for everyone why this Olympic Truce is as relevant today as it was in ancient times.

“More than ever, the world needs the Olympic values of peace and friendship,”

The Olympic Village in PyeongChang unveils the Olympic Truce Mural, created by South Korean artist Jaeseok Lee Photo by IOC/Greg Martin IOC President Bach said.

Last November, the United Nations General Assembly adopted the resolution “Building a peaceful and better world through sport and the Olympic Ideal.”

The consensus for the Olympic Truce resolution included both the Republic of Korea and the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, as well as the future hosts of the Olympic Games: Japan, China, France and the United States of America.

“The resolution calls on the nations of the world to uphold the Olympic Truce from seven days before the start of the Olympic Games in February 2018 until seven days after the Paralympic Games,” IOC said.

“This is an opportunity to recognise the power of sport to bring the world together in peaceful competition and create oppor-

tunities for dialogue and reconciliation.”

The Opening Ceremony begins on Friday, Feb. 9. It will be aired live on NBC stations, starting at 6 a.m. EST. NBC will replay the ceremony on Friday evening beginning at 8 p.m. EST. ■ — Kim Dedam will be writing a column on all things Olympic-related as the 2018 Winter Olympic Games commence on Feb. 9.

» Frontier Cont. from pg. 1 “Every other week, I get a complaint about Frontier,” he said.

Preston has personally filed a complaint with the state attorney general’s office, and has encouraged his constituents to follow in his footsteps.

Preston, who also serves as Wilmington supervisor, maintains Frontier shouldn’t be receiving any grant funds from the state.

“As far as I’m concerned, they haven’t met their commitment,” Preston told The Sun. “The grants should be pulled from them, and they should be fined.

“They aren’t living up to their commitment, and I don’t think that should be allowed.”

Preston said that he was “tickled pink” that Cuomo is taking care of the North Country.

But, he said: “They need to keep an eye on people like Frontier. They talk a lot and don’t accomplish much.”

Johnsburg Supervisor Andrea Hogan has fielded similar complaints.

“We have heard from a lot of people in town not 100 percent pleased with their service,” she said. “I’ve heard from at least a dozen people.”

ON SCHEDULE

Frontier’s most recent award will provide service to 1,093 households in Hamilton and Essex counties, including Lake Pleasant, North Creek, Wells and Wilmington.

The funds join $29.9 million in grants awarded last year to the Connecticut-based provider to wire 12,003 units in Ausable, Black Brook, Wilmington, Jay, Newcomb and Chesterfield — the third-largest by U.S. Census block announced in that funding package.

The provider also received $3.3 million in the first round.

Frontier is on schedule with those installation efforts, a spokesman told The Sun, and is on track to meet the Dec. 31 state-mandated deadline.

The company has pledged to kick in nearly $10 million to augment the effort.

Complaints over slow speeds are not new.

State Attorney General Eric Schneiderman told News10NBC last February his office was looking into Frontier after the Rochesterbased affiliate spent months investigating what they said was hundreds of complaints from local subscribers over spotty service.

“We are looking broadly at the industry,”

Schneiderman told News10NBC. “We contacted Frontier, so it’s not a secret that we’ve been looking at them also. We have received some information, we look forward to receiving a lot more information.”

The attorney general encouraged subscribers to pass along complaints to his office.

Schneiderman’s office previously filed a lawsuit against Time Warner Cable (now doing business as Spectrum) claiming the company wasn’t delivering on promised internet speeds.

“There are blackout periods where certain services just goes down and if you look at what you’re paying for and what you’re signing up for, the odds are that there’s another provision of the agreement that’s been violated,” Schneiderman said.

The attorney general’s office did not respond to a request for comment asking about the status of a potential Frontier investigation.

FRONTIER RESPONDS

Chesterfield residents have joined their Wilmington counterparts in complaining about what they perceive to be poor service.

Frontier told The Sun in 2016 that they were unaware of any “widespread or consistent problems” in the Chesterfield area.

Speeds are dependent on numerous factors, including the distance of a customer’s home from switching equipment, as well how many people are using the internet at the same time and their applications, a spokesperson told The Sun. “As part of our normal course of business, we continually invest in our network to provide customers with ongoing enhancements and upgraded speeds,” said Patricia Amendola, the spokesperson.

Asked to respond to the recent rash of complaints — including Preston’s assertion that Frontier should not be receiving state funds — a spokesman responded, “In general, the program requires projects to have speed capability of 100 mbps. The Frontier projects will satisfy this requirement of the program.”

And asked if the provider would update their technology for existing subscribers and what they were doing to address complaints, Frontier Communications Manager Andy Malinoski said, “Frontier is constantly investing in, expanding and improving our network as we continue to improve our customer experience in New York and across the United States.

Published by Denton Publications, Inc.

“The NY Broadband Program is one tactic we are implementing in certain communities to achieve those goals.”

CUOMO: ‘WE WANT TO KNOW ABOUT IT’

The Sun asked Cuomo directly what the state was doing to safeguard its investments, and asked specifically about Frontier Communications.

“They are a regulated public entity by the state under the Public Service Commission (PSC), and they handle any consumer complaints,” Cuomo said. “These are companies that we’re subsidizing to provide the service. If they’re not providing the service, we want to know about it.”

The PSC told The Sun they have not received any complaints about Frontier’s broadband service in the North Country.

There is no trigger for commencing a formal investigation.

“If it were to receive a consumer complaint, PSC staff would work to resolve the issue, including bringing in other agencies if necessary,” said James Denn, a spokesman.

The state Broadband Program Office is partnering with Frontier in building “state-of-the-art fiber networks” throughout the state, Denn said.

“Going forward, all upstate New Yorkers will see dramatic improvements in service quality and availability as a result of Gov. Cuomo’s nation-leading investment program,” Denn said. “As part of this effort, PSC staff will work closely with the BPO to ensure that companies receiving awards, including Frontier, provide good customer service.”

VERIZON ON BOARD

The New NY Broadband Program has injected about $143 million in state funding into the region to date.

Since the program’s launch in 2015, the program has secured high-speed internet upgrades for approximately 2.42 million locations statewide.

Joining Frontier in receiving grant funds last week for local projects include Hughes Network Systems, Mohawk Networks, Slic Network Solutions, TDS Telecom and Verizon, which received a $70.7 million award.

The provider had previously opted out of participating in the program, and rejected monies from the Federal Communications Commission’s Connect America Fund (CAF).

Raymond McConville, a Verizon spokesman, said an additional $12 million from

CAF acted as an incentive to get involved.

“We evaluate every opportunity and do it if it makes sense for everyone involved,” McConville told The Sun. “In this case, it was a great opportunity since in addition to the state match, federal support was added via CAF. The program recognized the significant costs of deploying fiber in remote locations and helped us make it feasible when it would otherwise not be.”

The provider’s own investment brings the total funds to $106.6 million.

Verizon will provide service to 11,900 households in the North Country, leveraging its relationship with Corning Inc to provide fiber optic cable and associated hardware.

Exact details on which providers will serve which communities are forthcoming, according to the governor’s office.

“Don’t have that level of detail at this point,” McConville told The Sun. Cuomo indicated work on all funded projects will begin imminently.

“The bids go out today,” Cuomo told reporters. “The majority of the work will be about one year, but it depends on what part of the North Country. Some areas are harder to get to than others.”

The 43 awarded projects will cover 122,285 locations statewide.

North Country state lawmakers praised the state for its investment, but said they were also mindful that the program needed to be implemented properly — particularly in the remaining areas without service.

Billy Jones (D-Chateaugay) said his office has already fielded a call from an eager constituent.

“The implementation is really where we get into the weeds on that,” he said.

The final round of grants also includes funds to support advanced satellite technology offering speeds of 25 mbps, but details remain hazy.

Rose, told about the latest round of funding, said he hoped the funds would go towards bulking up infrastructure for current subscribers instead of expanding coverage areas.

Two days after the announcement, he sat down to work on his taxes.

“Guess what?” Rose told a reporter. “No internet.”

Is your broadband provider offering slow or subpar service? We’d love to hear all about it.

Eye on business: ETS launches new website, expands into Burlington Homegrown company has tripled in size in two years

By Pete DeMola EDITOR

PLATTSBURGH | A Plattsburgh-based staffing agency has started 2018 with a bang with a new website and expansion into Vermont.

The upgrade by homegrown career hub ETS comes after months of research into the North Country job market.

Unemployment is down, and retention has become a major focus for companies across the Champlain Valley.

The career hub is now using data and analytics to help local employers find solutions to retention problems.

Companies must become increasingly entrepreneurial to compete both regionally and nationally, said ETS Staffing Services Director Jesse Krell.

ETS has found companies are increas-

ingly turning to them with more than one employment-related issue, and have tweaked their services as result.

“It’s important for companies to constantly engage and tap into talent they can’t find on their own,” Krell said.

The upgraded website allows for more streamlined communication between jobseekers and employers, “providing a personal touch while also automating things that can be involved to make experience better for everyone involved,” Krell explained.

A series of new features — including a chatbot service and behavioral assessment functions — is evidence of the company’s “high-tech, high touch” approach, he said.

The career hub also provides detailed analytics for both employees and job-seekers.

Last year, the agency interviewed 4,438 candidates, placing 3,066 of them into positions.

Out of those candidates, about 70 percent were currently employed.

“We want to make it really easy for anyone in the community to find opportunities and have a conversation with someone in recruitment to take a deeper dive,” Krell said.

Plattsburgh-based career hub ETS is on the move. The business has introduced a new website and opened a branch location in Burlington, Vermont.

Photo provided ETS also offers consulting services for businesses, including help with branding efforts.

Plattsburgh is home to an emerging transportation cluster. But large-scale manufacturers oftentimes lack the brand awareness of their more recognizable retail counterparts, for instance, a measure that may hamper recruitment efforts.

The upgrades are paired with an expansion into Burlington market, where ETS recently opened a branch location.

“In the last two years, we’ve tripled in size as a company,” Krell said. “We’re excited to keep growing that effort.” ■

she balanced caring for a young child.

She was at the cusp of withdrawing from college when the school came to her rescue.

“We were able to intervene and get her a laptop,” said Megan Morrissey-Kelley, associate director of institutional advancement at Clinton Community College. “She will graduate in May.” A concert to benefit Clinton Community College’s Student Emergency Fund is slated for Feb. 9.

Local musicians Roy Hurd, Taylor LaValley, Tim Harnett and Skip Smithson will perform alongside the Plattsburgh High School Select Vocal Ensemble from 7-9 p.m. at the Stafford Auditorium.

Through the years, the college has informally helped students pay for groceries, purchase bus passes to get to school and helped them pay for books when their belongings were destroyed.

“The idea for the emergency fund began with a house fire years back that displaced some of our students,” Morrissey-Kelley said. “They lost all of their belongings. We took up a collection and replaced all of their textbooks.”

The program identifies at-risk students every semester, and a formal fund was established two years ago.

Since then, 15 students have benefited from $6,230 in emergency funding.

The college foundation raises money through fundraisers and an option to donate in their annual campaign letter.

Tickets for the concert on Friday, Feb. 9 are $10 in advance and $15 at the door, with all proceeds going towards the fund.

For more information, contact the Clinton Community College Foundation at 518-562-4161 or foundation@clinton.edu. Tickets are available online at cccfoundationinc.net/new-page-4. ■

Plattsburgh highway super signs off family members gathered at the Plattsburgh Town Hall last Thursday to give Woods a warm send-off.

“You are a great colleague and a great friend,” Cashman told Woods before turning to Dubrey: “You have big shoes to fill, my friend.”

Dubrey, who Woods recommended for the job, took the oath of office alongside his family and Town Clerk Ricky Collins.

MEMORABLE MOMENTS

Woods began his career with the highway department on Jan. 4, 1988.

Through the ice storm of 1998 remains forever etched in his mind — “Oh, I’ll never forget it,” he said — for Woods, he ranks dealing with the aftermath of Tropical Storm Irene shortly after being elected highway superintendent as particularly memorable.

“Dealing with a natural disaster — it’s different when you’re in charge,” he said.

The storm ravaged the North Country in August 2011.

Roads, and pieces of the shoreline along Lake Champlain, were severely damaged after the storm and it took a lot of time to rebuild, he said.

“It was a lot of work.”

What he’ll miss most in his retirement are a lot of the taxpayers he had the pleasure of serving, he said, along with his employees in the highway department.

What’ll he do now?

Woods plans to work at a small auto shop in the area alongside two of the town’s previous highway supervisors.

“We’ve been having a lot of fun up there,” he said. ■

“Tim’s depth of experience and same commitment to customer service will continue to provide steady leadership to the Plattsburgh Town Highway Department,” said Supervisor Michael Cashman.

“We look forward to working with him in this new capacity as we serve the town taxpayers together.”

Dubrey, a 10-year veteran of the department, told The Sun that he hopes to keep the department running smoothly and lead in a similar fashion to his predecessor.

“I’d like to pretty much keep everything the same,” he said.

But the town board failed to reach a majority vote on either.

Moffett, who ran on the Democratic and Independence lines for a seat on the town board this past year, lost the election with 814 votes to her opponents’ 1,028 and 1,133 votes.

McBrayer, a Republican, declined to run for reelection last year for family reasons.

Freshman councilor Mel Irwin, a Republican, and Councilor James Langley, also a Republican, voted last Monday to keep McBrayer from filling the vacancy. The two voted similarly against Moffett last month.

McDonald and Councilman James Douglass, both Democrats, voted to appoint the candidates.

“We have a five-member board for a reason,” McDonald said in a phone interview.

Langley told The Sun that he feels an appointment, in this case, isn’t necessary — Moffett didn’t garner enough votes and McBrayer chose not to run, he said: “I think (an appointment) equates to avoiding the electorate and I’m not in favor of that.”

Irwin said he researched whether a four- or five-person board was more “conducive to business.”

“A four-person board forces compromises on both sides,” he said. “That’s what I want. For me, it’s not political.”

McBrayer said he was disappointed by how the board voted, but his offer to fill the appointment would stand.

Moffett expressed similar sentiments.

“It would be good for the town to have a five-person board,” she said, citing its role as a way to break split decisions. ■

You get 1,000 and you get 1,000!

Lady Eagles keep unblemished streak Everyone is getting $1,000!

Points, that is.

The explosion of 1,000point scorers has truly been remarkable this year, as 10

By Keith Lobdell players will have hit the mark • SPORTS EDITOR • as of this week, with the potential for at least two more, if not three, adding to that list.

Evan Graney got the 1,000-point ball rolling, followed by Hannah Schwoebel, Dylan Trombley, Joel Martineau, Andrew Cutaiar, Joey Stahl, Gretchen Zalis, Paige Chilton, Maddie Pratt and Rylee Hollister.

Still to come, most likely, are Lillian Dechene and McKenzie Sprague. If Moriah goes deep in to the playoffs, there could also be Maddie Olcott, making 13 for the season.

So, we did some digging and the first answer is yes, this will be the biggest class of 1,000-point scorers in Section VII history.

The seven players who recorded the mark in the last week alone equals the previous high mark, set just last year and before in 2001.

The number of 1,000-point members has been steadily increasing throughout the years.

Heading into the 1980s, only 18 players — all male — had made the list going back as far as 1948, an average of 4.5 per decade.

In the 1980s, 13 players made the cut, with the biggest years being 1981 and 1987, when two players each made the list.

That number more than doubled in the 1990s, as 36 players made the 1,000-point mark, including Section VII all-time leading scorers Julie Moore (Westport ‘92, 2,388) and Dan Munson (Beekmantown ‘99, 1,696).

In the first decade of the 21st century, 44 more names were added to the list, which includes Section VII’s second leading female scorer Courtney Coryea (NCCS ‘06, 1,909).

And so far in the 2010s, 35 names have made the list with 36 and 37 expected, well on pace to beating the previous decade. It also brings us the second leading scorer in Section VII boy’s history in Adam Jaquish (Moriah ‘16, 1,690).

The next question I asked myself is who has the most 1,000-point scorers of schools in the section. The answer was partially surprising.

While Northeastern Clinton was not the surprise with 12 (eight girls, four boys), it was who they were tied with — Westport, who also has 12 players (seven girls, five boys), with both adding one this year (Schwoebel, Hollister).

Not every school has a 1,000-point scorer, but most do, and most have multiple members on the list.

Over the past two years, Ticonderoga and Seton Catholic have seen a change to the top of that list with Kevin Murray last year and Graney this year — and more may come there, too.

All in all, it has made for a very exciting season of basketball as we roll into the regular season stretch run and sectional playoffs. ■

Beekmantown remains lone Section VII girls hockey champ

By Keith Lobdell SPORTS EDITOR

PLATTSBURGH | Everything was stacked against the Beekmantown girl’s varsity hockey team Feb. 3 as they took on the combined SaraLake Placid team in the Section VII finals.

The roster had been decimated by graduation from a year ago, having only three seniors against a 10-senior lineup from the best of the Tri-Lakes schools. They were also going up against the CVAC goalie of the year.

The Eagles also had a much smaller bench, which was not helped when there was no stoppage of play for eight minutes in the third period.

Yet, thanks to a well-placed shot by freshman Amanda Cayea and a 30-save performance from fellow freshman Brianna Knight in net, the Eagles were crowned sectional champs for the 10th

The Beekmantown Lady Eagles were crowned the Section VII girls hockey champions for the 10th straight year Feb. 3. You can watch a replay of this game on the Sun Community News she was the one who scored.”

Cayea scored off assists from eighth grader Leah Coloumbe and senior Kiersten Villemaire, who was named co-POY following the championship game.

“It means a lot to come away with a sectional title and keep the streak going,” Villemaire said. “We grew a lot together as a team this season and I am so happy to be going back to the final four. The trip is always so much fun and I hope we can go there and get another win and make it to the finals.”

In the end, though, it came down to Knight, in the biggest start of her young career, coming away with the shutout.

“I was just hoping all year that we could get to this point and I

time, and will prepare to head to the final four in Oswego next weekend.

“This is the hardest championship I think we have had to work for,” Beekmantown head coach Ray Guay said after the game. “We were a team that started by losing our first seven games. We made line changes throughout the season. We kept working together and we are peaking at the right time.”

Guay said it was appropriate to have Cayea scored the championship-winning goal for a team that had made so many changes.

“She had played her whole youth career before this as a forward, then we moved her back to defense early in the season,” he said. “It was nice

was just hoping to play my best,” Knight said. “I would have never thought we would win by such a dramatic score and I would be able to post a shutout.”

Knight added her defense was a huge help to keeping SLP out of the net.

“It’s all about communication,” Knight said. “Our goal is always to keep talking to each other and let everyone know where we are and what we see,” she said.

The Eagles will now play Section X champion Salmon River, an upset victor over Potsdam, in the final four at 3 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 10, at SUNY Oswego. The winners play for the state title Sunday, Feb. 11, at 11 a.m. ■

Cutaiar, Stahl showoff in grand performance

By Keith Lobdell SPORTS EDITOR

PLATTSBURGH | Andrew Cutaiar and Joey Stahl have been playing basketball against each other for a long time.

On Jan. 30, both met as Cutaiar’s Plattsburgh High team hosted Stahl and the top-ranked Moriah Vikings with the Hornets shooter 10 points away from 1,000 for his career.

Meanwhile, Stahl was 39 points away, which seemed like a stretch to get in one game, even for Vikings head coach Brian Cross.

“I didn’t bring a game ball with me, so I had no thought that he could do it tonight,” Cross said.

Yet, there they both were at the end of the game, sharing the game ball and smiling for the cameras as Cutaiar scored 13 points (1,003 career) and Stahl an impressive 40 points (1,001 career) in a 96-64 Viking victory.

“If there is anyone in the Section I would want to share this night with, it would be Joey Stahl,” said Cutaiar about the friendship between the pair. “It was just a special day and to see him make it here too made it more special.”

Moriah’s Joey Trombley and Plattsburgh High’s Andrew Cutaiar stand together with the game ball after both reached the 1,000-point career mark in the Jan. 30 meeting at Plattsburgh High School.

“It was great because he would come down the court and I would tell him ‘not this possession’” said Stahl after the game.

“Then he got me, and he started saying the same thing to me.”

Both Cross and PHS coach Jim Manchester said they cannot recall ever having two

players hit the milestone on the same night.

“I am happy for both of them,” Manchester said. “I am happy for Andrew and his family, especially his father, who have been working so hard for this moment for a number of years.

“As for Joey, he is just one of those players — he is going to be missed as a player in this Section next season, but for an opposing coach like me, I’ll be able to get more sleep knowing he’s no longer here,” Manchester joked.

While Cutaiar became the fifth player this season to reach the 1,000 point barrier (Evan Graney, Hannah Schwoebel, Dylan Trombley, Joel Martineau), Stahl became the sixth and second member of the Vikings to reach the mark, preceded by Trombley.

“My teammates deserve all of the credit,” Stahl said. “They are the ones who find me in open positions and we have grown so much together and accomplished some great things.”

“You put Joey and Dylan together, and they have been the backbone of this team,” Cross said. “The have 88 wins together and could get to 100 wins as a duo if we can keep performing well. They have been great leaders and great players to have on the court.” ■

Chilton, Zalis have their night

out to congratulate me. I have had amazing teammates and we have been so close together throughout my time on the team.”

“Gretchen is one of the hardest workers I have ever coached,” said coach Donna Dixon.

“Her work ethic makes everyone around her better players. Not only can she score at will, she is the best rebounder on our team. I have had the privilege of coaching her for four years and she is so deserving of this accomplishment.”

ELLENBURG | In week that saw the newest member of the Section VII 1,000-point club change hands in a matter of minutes at times, Northern Adirondack’s Paige Chilton and Seton Catholic’s Gretchen Zalis took their turns at respective home games on the final day of the month of January.

Zalis scored her 1,000th career point at home against Keene before Chilton took her turn as the newest member of the club in a win over Peru, also at home.

They became the fourth and fifth player in three days to reach the mark, joining Joel Martineau, Andrew Cutaiar and Joey Stahl.

Previously in the season, Evan Graney, Hannah Schwoebel and Dylan Trombley had also made the 1,000-point level.

In Plattsburgh, Zalis reached the mark much sooner than expected.

“We thought I was about 60 points away,” Zalis said. “I was leaving for the game and coach Dixon called my mom and she said,

‘Oh, don’t tell her,’ and I asked what was up and they told me I was only 10 points away.”

Zalis got her 10 points against Keene, making her the (at that point) newest member of the 1,000-point club.

“I was very excited to get there,” she said.

“It was so exciting and all my teammates ran

“This is obviously really special for me,” Chilton said following her game. “My team and everyone contributed like my past teammates, my past and present coaches, my family and especially Taylor Durnin. She helped me get my goal. She has been a great inspiration to me. The special part of this is that I can be on the banner with her.”

Durnin, a 2016 graduate who is the all-time NAC leading scorer and a current player at Plattsburgh State, was a teammate of Chitlon in the teams first two Final Four appearances.

“It took a lot of hard work, teammates, coaches, family — everyone coming together helping me achieve this,” Chitlon said,

“This is an awesome kid — coachable, respectable, great kid and always comes to work,” said coach Scott Brooks. “I couldn’t ask for a better kid than that.” ■ — Jill Lobdell contributed to this story

Hollister eighth in eight days to reach 1K mark

Northeastern Clinton’s Rylee Hollister scored his 1,000th career point against Beekmantown Feb. 5.

CHAMPLAIN | The roll began last Monday.

It ended Monday, Feb. 5, when Rylee Hollister connected on a shot in the fourth quarter of the Northeastern Clinton varsity boy’s basketball game against Beekmantown, becoming the eighth Section VII player in as many days to reach the 1,000-career point mark.

Hollister is the 11th player to reach the milestone this season, the largest amount of players to join the list in one season since records have been kept.

“A lot of pressure is off my shoulders now,” Hollister said after the game. “I knew that it was going to be a struggle, but I finally calmed down and was able to get it.”

“It was a lot of fun and pressure,” coach Luke Connell said. “He was looking for his shot at the beginning of the game, but they started to fall.”

The moment was made extra special because Hollister received the pass to score his milestone points on from his brother, Owen.

“It was a lot of fun playing with him,” Rylee said. “It was great to get the pass from him to get the shot.”

“I thought that it was pretty cool that it was his brother to get him the ball to get him the couple of points that he needed,” added Connell.

The Cougars scored a 51-39 win over the Eagles in the game, and Hollister said the focus will now be on fixing the small things needed to come out on top of Class B. “There’s a few in and outs that we need to work on, but we got the win,” Hollister said. ■ — Jill Lobdell contributed to this story

» NAFTA Cont. from pg. 1 “They can pay for it indirectly through NAFTA,” Trump told The Wall Street Journal.

“We make a good deal on NAFTA, and, say, ‘I’m going to take a small percentage of that money and it’s going toward the wall.’

Guess what? Mexico’s paying.”

Trump threatened to terminate the deal in the same interview.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said he would walk away from the talks if he felt like Canada was getting a “bad deal.”

“We will not be pushed around,” he said on Friday at a rally in British Columbia, according to Reuters.

Douglas is wary of anything that could upset what he calls the “gold standard of binational economic partnership.”

“Anytime anybody starts to rattle the cage or look to disrupt that relationship and its smooth flow, we have reason to be concerned,” he said.

“Do no harm,” he said, citing the Hippocratic Oath taken by medical professionals.

NOT JUST A PARTNER

It’s a misnomer that Canada is a mere trade partner, and the relationship is deeper than shipping boxes back and forth, Douglas said.

On average, 25 percent of the content of any manufacturing goods coming into the

www.suncommunitynews.com

U.S. from Canada is American content.

And that relationship drives other sectors, including retail and tourism.

“There is no single greater driving force in the economy of the North Country than our economic relationship with Canada,” Douglas said. “Period, full stop.”

Federal lawmakers tend to conflate issues at the northern and southern borders, he said.

But NAFTA isn’t Mexico-centric and that lack of understanding often results in non traderelated issues like illegal immigration, crime and drug trafficking bleeding into northern issues.

“They’re not the issues we have with Canada,” Douglas said. “So differentiating Canada and the U.S. and Mexico is part of the messaging that we need to continuously do to make that difference.”

Douglas also criticized a U.S. demand that would effectively require a reapproval of the deal every five years.

“You can’t do a major economic partnership that’s in five-year installments,” Douglas said. “Any change you build might disappear in five years.”

ON TO OTTAWA

Douglas and local stakeholders traveled to Montreal last week for discussions, and will travel to Montreal next month for a round of talks with the new U.S. ambassador to

Canada, Kelly Craft.

“We know we can’t impact it on our own, but we’re going to add our voice anywhere and to everything that we can as those discussions move forward,” Douglas said.

Key priorities include lobbying for greater workforce mobility by expanding the professional categories permitting the hire and transport workers across the border — including information technology, for instance.

Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-Willsboro) will join the delegation.

The lawmaker has been outspoken on preserving what officials say is a unique relationship, and has been critical of unfair trade practices, including new tariffs on newsprint and actions to protect the Canadian milk industry.

Stefanik also introduced legislation that would extend the amount of time Canadians could spend in the U.S. annually, as well as co-sponsored the pre-clearance agreement signed into law by President Obama in 2016.

The lawmaker agrees with Douglas’ “do no harm mantra.”

Since NAFTA took effect in 1994, New York has added 2.7 million new jobs, according to the lawmaker’s office. Over 318,000 jobs in New York state are supported by trade with Canada and Mexico and are attributable to NAFTA markets.

“She was encouraged by efforts in the last

[~-~

Despite the uncertainty, and the skirmishes Douglas likens to a sibling rivalry, the business community is cautiously optimistic.

Douglas was heartened that the International Trade Court ruled against Boeing in the aerospace company’s dispute with the Montreal-based Bombardier last month.

The U.S. Department of Commerce wanted to place nearly a 300 percent tariff on C-Series imports, arguing the aircraft were unfairly subsidized by the Canadian government.

“There’s more U.S. content in a C-Series plane made by Bombardier than in some of the planes made by Boeing,” Douglas said.

The real threat when it comes to trade, he said, is China.

“At the end of the day, I think we have reason to believe that the relationship is so important, and any disruption would be so self-harming to the U.S. and its workers and its people and economy, that it’ll work out in the end. But we need to be concerned and keep careful watch of it.” ■
