City parties seek candidates as deadline looms Candidates declining to run for Plattsburgh Common Council seats

By Elizabeth Izzo STA FF W RITER

PLATTSBURGH | As the deadline looms for city council hopefuls to file designating petitions, Plattsburgh’s Democratic and Republican parties are still seeking candidates for local office.

Between the three Plattsburgh City Council seats up for election this year — wards 3, 5 and 6 — only one is currently contested, while another has no one in the running.

Asked whether or not he felt the current climate in City Hall and the ongoing budget deliberations had any role in interested candidates’ declinations to run, city Republican Committee Chair Bruce Lawson said for some, it did.

“For some they see the challenge and the disharmony, and they wonder if they want to step into that,” Lawson told The Sun. » Council election Cont. on pg. 10

The Educational Opportunity Program (EOP) at SUNY Plattsburgh will host its annual summer institute July 7-Aug. 4, during which nearly 75 students will spend four weeks on campus to prepare for their first semester as college students. EOP provides tutoring and personal-development activities for students who might not otherwise have had a chance to pursue their college dream because of academic or economic disadvantages. Applications for the program are still being accepted. For more information, contact the EOP office at 518-564-2263 or email eop@plattsburgh.edu.

STEFANIK: GOP-LED HOUSE ‘LOOKING AT ALL OPTIONS’ FOR IMMIGRATION FIX Legislation remains elusive despite GOP control of House

Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-Willsboro) said she was “disappointed” at the latest setback on an immigration bill. Pictured above: A protester displays a sign at the “Families Belong Together” rally in Plattsburgh last Saturday.

QUEENSBURY | The GOP-led House rejected a compromise immigration bill last Wednesday, marking the latest setback in Congress’ inability to cobble together a long-term legislative fi x.

Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-Willsboro) voted for the legislation, which was defeated 301-121.

“I was disappointed that the bill failed,” said Stefanik. » Immigration Cont. on pg. 8

County board seeks to squash ‘dragon’s breath’ food trend Board of Health aims to block dangerous craze

By Elizabeth Izzo STA FF W RITER

PLATTSBURGH | A new food craze is popping up in hip restaurants around the country: Dragon’s breath desserts.

This isn’t your garden-variety breakfast — it’s cereal or ice cream drenched in liquid nitrogen, according to Clinton County Department of Health Director John Kanoza.

That nitrogen causes smoke to pour from the mouths of those who ingest it, thus the nickname “dragon’s breath.”

It can also cause severe damage to the mouth, esophagus and stomach, and could cause frostbite or tissue damage, according to a news release from the Clinton County Health Department.

Clinton County health officials want to keep that trend from spreading here.

Last month, the Clinton County Board of Health passed a resolution calling for the prohibition of “dragon’s breath” vendors at any

restaurants, fairs or special events in this county.

“It’s becoming more prominent as a novelty at fairs and special events,” Kanoza told The Sun. Needless to say, ingesting liquid nitrogen — a clear, odorless substance with a temperature typically between negative 196 and negative 320 degrees fahrenheit — is dangerous, he said.

“It’s super, super cold. Liquid nitrogen can burn you because it’s so cold.”

Because the amount of nitrogen used in these desserts isn’t regulated, it’s possible that some may contain excess liquid at the bottom of the cup, and Kanoza fears that some may attempt to drink the excess and burn themselves.

As recently as last fall, a 14-year-old girl was sent to the hospital in Pensacola, Florida with chemical burns after handling one of the desserts, ABC3 WEARTV reported.

The Clinton County Health Department will seek to prohibit issuing permits to dragon’s breath dessert vendors who apply for them, according to Kanoza.

“We don’t want to see that at any of our special events,” he said.

“I just don’t want anyone to get hurt.

One little mistake by a food vendor, or a customer, and they could get hurt.” ■

‘Ride to Remember’ honors memory of loving mother 13th annual event aims to raise money for adult care centers

By Elizabeth Izzo STA FF W RITER

PLATTSBURGH | Barbara Tobin was the epitome of a loving housewife.

The mother of seven kids, her family was

the apple of her eye, and she reveled in having them all under one roof whenever she could.

“She just really took joy in spending time with her loved ones,” her daughter Kathleen Freeman said.

She loved to sew, and cook, and she loved her husband Frank until the day he died.

Her life wasn’t always idyllic, but where it wasn’t, she took joy in helping others and had a village of people who cared deeply for her.

It was in her late 60s when things started to change.

A pivotal moment came when Tobin was faced with a parking lot full of cars and realized, with a pang of fear, that she had no idea where her car was.

That’s something that happens to a lot of people, Freeman said. But for her mother, it took a lot of time and effort and help from others to find her car.

“She couldn’t remember what she had for breakfast, but could go back 30 years and tell you of a memory,” Freeman said. “She’d make toast then put it in the microwave until smoke rolled.

“We started noticing different things like that.”

She was diagnosed with dementia in her late 60s, and though she continued living at home for some time, she was eventually moved into a nursing home.

She passed away in 2005, at the age of 78.

But the memory of this beautiful woman, pure of heart and dutiful to her family until the end, lingers on in those that had the privilege to love her.

In her honor, her family kickstarted the Ride to Remember, an annual motorcycle ride through the scenic streets of the Adirondacks to raise money for local adult care centers.

It started with just a few people in 2006, and Freeman always told herself that when people stopped coming, she’d stop planning the event.

“I keep saying, ‘I’ll keep doing this until it starts to fall off,’” she said. “But I can honestly say every year we’ve really raised a significant amount of money.”

Tobin’s family and friends have managed to raise upwards of $200,000 over the past 13 years. Last year, they used some of the surplus funds to purchase a bus for the Third

“The support has been just great,” she said.

Plattsburgh gun-buyback nets 151 firearms City police, state Attorney General take aim at unwanted guns

By Elizabeth Izzo STA FF W RITER

PLATTSBURGH | A gun-buyback event in the City of Plattsburgh last week resulted in 151 firearms submitted to authorities by local owners.

The “no questions asked” event, co-sponsored by the Plattsburgh City Police Department and the state Attorney General’s Office, saw four assault weapons, 64 handguns, 65 rifles, four shotguns and 14 non-working or antique guns handed over to law enforcement.

“Our communities are safer when we take unwanted or forgotten guns off our streets and out of our homes,” said state Attorney General Barbara Underwood in a statement.

“We will continue to do everything we can to tackle gun violence here in New York and fight for federal action to protect our children and communities.”

Plattsburgh’s gun-buyback was the first event of its kind held in over 15 years, according to Plattsburgh City Police Chief Levi Ritter.

“It was a true amnesty event,” Ritter told The Sun. “We haven’t done one for at least 15 years — so we had really modest expectations. We’re just so thankful that the At-

Ritter said that because of the nature of the program, there was no mechanism to record how many people participated, though he confirmed the number was fewer than 151.

Overall, Ritter called the amount of participating “reassuring.”

“Based on the reception, I think we’d be crazy not to revisit this next year,” he said.

Participants received anywhere from $25-100 per firearm depending on the type and a free gun lock.

Hundreds march in Plattsburgh as part of nationwide protest

By Pete DeMola EDITOR

PLATTSBURGH | Hundreds of people gathered in Plattsburgh on Saturday as part of a nationwide “Families Belong Together” rally designed to protest the Trump administration’s “zero tolerance” immigration policy.

“Contrary to the belief we are all rapists, drug addicts and drug dealers, we are not,” said Tenzin Dorjee, a naturalized U.S. citizen and restaurateur from Bhutan. “We are hardworking, law-abiding citizens — or future citizens — of this great nation.”

NATIONWIDE ACTION

Protestors in over 700 cities nationwide denounced what has shaped up to be a fullfledged humanitarian crisis at the southern border that has seen more than 2,000 children separated from their families since April following their illegal entry to the country.

Dorjee said going through the legal immigration channels was difficult enough — he and his wife lost 30 pounds each during the six-month wait to learn of their fate — but couldn’t imagine the trauma for those forcefully separated from their children.

“But we were a family of three,” he said.

“We were together and we were not separated.”

Organizers counted 244 attendees at the rally, which unfolded under sweltering skies amid a mounting heatwave.

An event outside of Rep. Elise Stefanik’s Glens Falls district office drew 500 people, said organizers.

Protestors in Plattsburgh marched for 20 minutes downtown carrying signs with mes-

sages like “Silence is consent — I will not be silent” and “Keep the families, deport Trump” while cycling through a series of chants.

Marchers, many of whom dressed in white, congregated at Trinity Park to listen to a roster of guest speakers, including immigrants and representatives of numerous humanitar-

ian and grassroots organizations, including Plattsburgh Cares, Adirondack Friends of Refugees, North Country SURJ and North Country RESPECT. Organizers at the national level included MoveOn.Org, the National Domestic Workers Alliance and the Leadership Conference.

‘COMPLETELY IMMORAL’

Many speakers said the U.S. is losing its values and status as a safe haven for those fleeing religious persecution and violence in their home countries.

» Protest Cont. from pg. 4 She was six.

“I think about how it would feel to be ripped from my mother’s arms in a moment when my family and I were at our most vulnerable,” Epshteyn said. “I think about how it would feel to arrive to the U.S. border seeking protection, only to have my pain criminalized.”

Several attendees said they were emotionally upset and depressed over images of children kept in cage-like settings in detention centers in Texas.

“I believe very strongly that the policy of family separation is completely immoral,” said Allison Lutz, 28, of Morrisonville, “and I want to join others who feel the same way.”

Sophie Ward, 25, of Plattsburgh, attended with her son, Quincy.

She said she sympathizes with mothers who will do anything for their children.

“I think it’s inhumane, and I don’t think there are any circumstances that encourage separation,” Ward said. “It’s like something you see in history books, and it’s happening right now.”

The protests unfolded as the divided GOP-led House continues to struggle to forge an immigration fix.

A compromise bill was defeated last week, but lawmakers said they felt optimistic they could hash out legislation before the summer recess later this month.

Democrats and Republicans alike have criticized the policy, and Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-Willsboro) said she agreed with protesters that family separations needed to end.

“I agree with them that we need to pass standalone legislation that addresses family separation,” Stefanik told reporters last week in Queensbury.

around the country who are willing to take time off from their schedules, from their lives, and turning out, and then voting.”

Epshteyn said that the current policy is just the latest in a long line of injustice and discrimination in the U.S., including slavery, the forced separation of Native American children from their families and the internment of JapaneseAmericans in camps during World War II. She urged attendees not to be “single-issue voters,” asking them to continue to fight all forms of injustice.

While President Trump has signed an executive order ending the practice, some attendees said they didn’t have faith that a solution could be reached by traditional measures.

Luis Sierra, who came to the U.S. from Honduras in 1976, said prolonged civil disobedience may be necessary, citing women-powered efforts in Latin America and elsewhere.

“Marching may not be enough,” he said.

Mark Schneider, an immigration lawyer who spent seven years working with immigrants and refugees in Texas, agreed.

“The solution is not the law,” Schneider said. “The solution is people here, and people

Plattsburgh Cares president Kathy Sajor reminded the crowd that informal family separation also takes place at the northern border with Canada and should not be overlooked.

Sajor recounted watching families say goodbye at the now-notorious Roxham Road crossing in Champlain.

“They know that if their families stay in the U.S., they risk being separated,” Sajor said. “So they send the mothers off with their children to Canada while these dads return to their jobs in the U.S.” City of Plattsburgh Mayor Colin Read said the Trump administration’s policy hasn’t

been well thought out — calling it “reactionary” instead of proactive.

In nod to the woman in a dinosaur costume who was handing out space heater blankets to children — “A space blanket can’t replace Mom,” said the sign — Read he was pleased that city residents weren’t acting like “dinosaurs.”

“I’m really disheartened by the tone in this nation over the last year or two where we seem to have lost those values,” said Read, himself an immigrant from Canada. “But we haven’t lost those values in Plattsburgh.”

Dorjee said he often thinks twice about posting his thoughts on social media, citing the political climate and public mood.

“My family is fearing for my life because of the posts that I put online,” he said. “I never even imagined that this day would come. But will that stop me? It will not.”

The crowd cheered.

July 4 is fast approaching, Dorjee said, and like every other year for the past 18 years, he and his family will engage in a week of self-reflection, balancing a holiday and history lesson.

“I do that to honor all the people before us who have given us this freedom and this choice to learn about that,” he said, “and I will continue to do that as long as I live.” ■

Thoughts from Behind the Pressline

New light on community newspapers

Last week’s tragic shooting at the Capital Gazette in Annapolis, Maryland has shed new light on the close ties

By Dan Alexander between local commu• PUBLISHER • nities and their hometown community paper.

Typically left to toil away at their trade with local issues, it’s always been the larger metro papers that have been viewed to operate in a position of greater prominence covering national and international matters, presumably leaving them more susceptible to acts of violence.

But those of us in the trade realize the close working relationship with members of the community and the open door policy most community newspapers operate under puts them on the front lines.

It’s almost unheard of at a community newspaper to conduct active shooter drills or have locked doors and/or security guards at the front entrance.

According to the U.S Press Freedom Tracker, 13 journalists have been physically attacked in the United States so far this year while 45 journalists were physically attacked in 2017.

I think it’s fair to say we all witness the growing anger and frustration in our society these days.

Forget politics for a minute: You would be surprised at some of the phone calls — and even verbal abuse — our staff are subject to over everyday stories like a published real estate transaction, a police report or even the incorrect spelling of a local school athlete’s name.

I have had threats left on voicemail both at home and the office; I’ve had an arrow left in the door jam with a message, and I was even accosted at church once for a letter to the editor that appeared in the paper.

None of those confrontations come anywhere close what occurred in Maryland last week, but the issue at the heart of the shooting was no more significant than the examples I’ve used here.

All of this speaks to the changing attitudes, mental health issues and the assumption of a civil society where people can disagree but still resolve those issues in a peaceful manner.

The frustration and anger generated over major issues seems to affect much smaller issues once society accepts the notion that violence, harassment and civil discord are accepted methods of getting things your way regardless of being right or wrong.

I’ll doubt you’ll be seeing any security guards at the front doors of The Sun anytime soon, but we must realize these flashpoints can happen even in the smallest of communities. ■

The Sun Editorial

Newsroom attack brutal reminder of everyday threats Five people are dead after a gunman stormed the Capital Gazette newsroom in Annapolis last week.

We watched the tragedy unfold from our own newsroom.

Like others in this hardened business, we were aghast, but not surprised.

“Sooner or later, it was inevitable all of this would come to a head,” sighed one of us.

And then we went back to work.

The deadliest loss of U.S. reporters in a single incident in recent memory was not politically motivated, but rather the result of a deranged reader who had a long-running grudge against the daily newspaper.

Despite the scorn and hostility heaped on the national press corps on a daily basis by a hyper-polarized public and antagonistic White House, local journalists are actually more vulnerable to actual violence, according to the Committee to Protect Journalists — particularly when covering protests and demonstrations.

“If someone has a beef with you, and you’re a local reporter, it can get ugly in a hurry, because you’re accessible,” Joel Simon, executive director of the Committee to Protect Journalists, told NBC News.

While the North Country is a relative-

NCCC tech program has been delayed long enough

To the Editor: I was glad to read that North Country Community College (NCCC) will be working with Ti-Alliance to develop an applied technical skills program.

For decades, for a variety of reasons, post-secondary education in this country has been producing graduates with degrees of questionable value, few job prospects and mountains of debt.

Meanwhile, industry has been calling for more skilled technical employees. So this program is very much the right idea.

However, the supervisors need to keep a close eye on this.

I am not confident of the actual commitment level here. Imagine how much further ahead our region would be if NCCC had started this when the supervisors first called for it five years ago.

The article describes the “next step” as hiring a consultant to study feasibility. That may be

ly sedate place, threats happen here, too.

We’ve dealt with several scares this year following the publication of controversial stories — including a phone call we took seriously enough that we reached out to the authorities to put a patrol on our building.

Running parallel to this extreme polarization of public sentiment is the decline overall discourse in this country, which is now gutter-like — even when it comes to the most pedestrian of topics.

The default reaction to something people fi nd disagreeable is now accusatory, harsh and uncivil.

All of this has made our jobs as reporters exponentially more difficult.

Like us, the Capital Gazette is a small town community newspaper with the same mission, core values and team members: Local folks selflessly dedicated to making their communities a more vital place.

Oftentimes, this not glamorous stuff.

Most of our time is spent sitting in uncomfortable chairs in local government meetings. It’s reporting on school budgets and from the sidelines of high school football fields in bone-chilling weather.

It’s sifting through reams of government records in an attempt to keep elected officials

The supervisors should keep pushing this to make sure the program does not wait another five years.

Rank choice voting should be implemented

To the Editor: The June 23 Sun editorial, “Rank-choice voting, a concept worth exploring,”discusses a potential solution to our dysfunctional partisan politics that has recently been implemented state-wide in Maine.

Under rank-choice voting (RCV), voters rank all the candidates in order of preference.

There is evidence that RCV: • Encourages voter turnout, since citizens have more choice than a single front runner they may not like.

• It shifts incentives away from negative campaigning as candidates look beyond their base.

It’s a lifestyle of high stress, irregular schedules, bad eating habits and extracting information from people who would rather not to talk to you.

But every once in a while, we get to share the story of a normal person doing something extraordinary.

And that makes it all worth it.

We’re not the elite living in enclosed bubbles, but rather regular folks with families who want to get home to our kids and a sincere desire to better our communities and enrich our collective fabric.

We are not naive enough to believe this tragedy will lead to a change in public discourse.

But we hope you will consider the ordinariness of our lives the next time you think about hurling a hyperbolic comment on social media over some perceived slight; hollering into the phone or submitting that spittle-flecked letter to the editor.

The loss of Gerald Fischman, Rob Hiassen, John McNamara, Rebecca Smith and Wendi Winters is not only a loss for their friends and family, but for the nation as a whole.

We mourn for their loved ones and will keep them in our hearts forever. ■ — The Sun Editorial Board

Limits the effectiveness and amount of money spent by single-issue organizations that typically finance negative ads.

Despite wide discontent with our current political discourse, few solutions have been proposed, and RCV should be tried more broadly.

Slow down in work zones — lives depend on it

To the Editor: Summer is here and our highway departments are now engaged in multiple projects.

This is the time of year where the men and women of our local highway departments switch from plowing and sanding our roads to repairing the damage done by Old Man Winter.

It is also the time of year when these workers are at a greater risk from work zone intrusions.

or omissions or typographic errors. All reasonable care is taken to prevent such errors. We will gladly correct any errors if notification is received within 48 hours of any such error. We are not responsible for photos, which will only be returned if you enclose a self-addressed envelope.

injury or even death to those men and woman who work so hard to maintain and improve our roads to keep us safe.

I recently prosecuted a work zone intrusion case where a driver swerved around a stopped vehicle and drove past the fl ag man holding a blinking red stop sign. Two other vehicles traveling in the opposite direction were forced off the road and the lives of workers were put at risk.

Thankfully, no one was hurt.

As the Hamilton County District Attorney, I take work zone intrusions very seriously and am dedicated to ensuring that our highway workers stay safe. Therefore, I ask everyone to take this issue seriously and to proceed slowly and cautiously through work zones.

We need to give our highway workers a break and do all we can to help keep them safe. Let’s all share the goal that these workers return home, unharmed, to their family and friends at the end of the day.

Guest viewpoint

The numbers add up on Trump impeachment

By Edward Pontacoloni GUEST COLUMNIST

This following guest column was written in response to The Sun Publisher Dan Alexander’s “Thoughts from Behind the Pressline: A Deceptive Master Plan” published in the June 16 edition.

Although I may be a bit tardy, allow me to accept your invitation: You are nuts.

If “something doesn’t add up,” it is because you are missing a number of factors from your equation.

Let’s start in the middle where you assert that Donald Trump was “once a highly acclaimed, successful entrepreneur.”

Actually, Donald Trump has, by many accounts, always been a demonstrable liar, cheat, fraud and a conman. He is the epitome of mendacity.

He is a serial bankrupt of such poor creditworthiness that his businesses and projects have been denied traditional American bank financing and been obliged to resort to foreign banks and possibly to money laundering for Russian oligarchs.

Do your numbers still not “add up?”

Let’s see, “historic accomplishments in regulation roll backs?”

You mean like exposing consumers to greater risks of financial fraud and our nation to another big-bank related “great recession?”

You mean like freeing polluters to poison our air and water? You mean like taking our public lands and surrendering them to rapacious exploitation by fossil fuel companies?

Or maybe you mean his rollback of health insurance for a substantial portion of your fellow Americans or his rollback of the basic necessities of education, food and shelter for the least able of your countrymen or the threats to our Social Security and Medicare systems from the looming budget deficit created by his rollback of taxes for the wealthy.

Perhaps you are still unable come up with the right numbers to explain the “calls for impeachment, negative press… and entertainers cheering profanity-laced insults.” This failure may be due to some other miscalculations on your part.

You tout the “unemployment lows” and the “booming economy,” but Trump inherited a growing economy from Obama

and whatever accomplishments you may think he has achieved are not truly his own, no more so than the wealth that he inherited from his father and purportedly stole from his brother in order to initially fund his “successful” entrepreneurship.

The area where Trump’s economic policies have actually achieved “historic accomplishments” is more accurately the U.S. budget deficit, which is expected to reach almost $1 trillion by the end of his first term.

We won’t know until then how drastic the consequences will be for our economy, but the projections are dire, and the probabilities deserve at least some consideration in your arithmetic.

Giving Trump any “credit” for the present economy doesn’t overcome his abysmal failures in international affairs: from alienating our closest friends and allies such as Canada and Germany, to cozying up to autocrats and dictators such as Putin and Duterte.

You naively believe that the recent “sit down with the Hermit Kingdom Chairman” was a diplomatic success, but you ignore the fact that North Korea acquired its nuclear tipped ICBMs and the ability to reach the U.S. under Trump’s watch and that Kim is still considered an ex-

traordinary threat to our national security. Kim will not surrender his nuclear weapons. Trump got played.

Tell me how the United States is greater today than it was in 2016. I’ll tell you how it is not.

Never in our history have our rights and liberties, our democratic institutions, come under a greater attack from within: from Trump’s calling our free press the “enemy of the people,” to his denigration of the religions and nationalities of minority Americans, to his championing of racial enmity, to his rejection of due process, to his inhumane abuse of innocent refugee children, to his conspiracy with a foreign government to undermine our democracy.

Never in our history, except for the time of our Civil War, has this country been more divided than as it is now.

And never before has our nation stood so alone on the world stage. Trump’s touted “mayhem” is divisiveness and incivility, and the rest of the world pities us our loss of honor and prestige.

Add those several factors to your equation and see if you still do not understand the calls for Trump’s impeachment, etc. ■ — Edward Pontacoloni lives in Lake George

that would reunite children separated from their families at the southern border.

“I anticipate that will be coming to the floor in the month of July,” Stefanik said.

The lawmaker is also a co-sponsor of the Hurd-Aguilar bill.

“If we’re able to bring to that to the floor, I think that would be a step in the right direction as well,” said Stefanik.

Some 2,300 children have been separated since the administration’s “zero tolerance” crackdown took effect in April.

But as public outrage mounts, Trump has proven to be an unreliable partner, and Republicans struggle to craft an immigration fi x.

The compromise vote was postponed twice, and a conservative bill was defeated late last month.

Hundreds of thousands of protesters marched across the U.S. on Saturday in

The compromise fi x included $25 billion of appropriations for President Trump’s border wall as well as technology upgrades, modernization of ports of entry, as well as a pathway to citizenship for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals recipients.

“We’re looking at all options,” Stefanik told reporters following in event in Queensbury last Friday. “I think the key here, ‘How can we get something done?’ So obviously that compromise bill was disappointing in my experience.”

President Trump signed a executive order last month ending the administration’s family separation policy, and a federal judge in California issued a injunction last week ordering children to be reunited with their families within 30 days.

Stefanik has also co-sponsored legislation

opposition to the administration’s immigration policy, including hundreds in Plattsburgh and Glens Falls.

“We are asking why would Stefanik, Trump and the Republicans do such a barbaric, cruel thing to children?” said Joe Seeman, an activist and co-organizer of the event in Glens Falls. “The only answer is scapegoating.”

The lawmaker said she understands the concerns of those protesting.

“I agree with them that we need to pass standalone legislation that addresses family separation,” she said.

Trump claimed Saturday that he never pushed for House GOP support on the failed compromise bill despite tweeting that lawmakers should support the bill three days earlier.

And late last month, he told Republicans to stop wasting their time on the bill until after the midterm elections generated a “red

Nearly half the Republican caucus opposed last week’s bill, illustrating sharp divides within their own conference.

“Negotiating with the Freedom Caucus is not the best way to approach passing bills on the floor, so I think that was a mistake in this process,” Stefanik said.

The lawmaker also wants to address agricultural-related immigration issues, citing the impact on farms throughout New York’s 21st Congressional District.

“Every farm that I visit — seasonal or yearround dairy farms — labor is one of their top concerns, and we need to have some type of status for those agricultural workers,” she said. “That has a big impact on our farms being able to survive” Stefanik will be in the district this week, and Congress will convene next week for three weeks before their summer recess. ■

» Council election Cont. from pg. 1

council, is declining to run for re-election after first nabbing the seat in 2013.

No candidates from either party have yet announced their intention to run for Dowdle’s seat.

According to the city charter, the mayor has the authority — when paired with at least three affirmative votes from the council — to appoint someone to fill a council vacancy.

If there are no takers, Dowdle’s term will officially end on Dec. 31 of this year, and it may be up to Read and the Common Council to appoint someone from Ward 3 until the next election.

“If there is a vacancy, the mayor has the right to make an appointment, subject to confirmation of the council, as I recall,” Read told The Sun in an email.

But it’s unclear whether or not a race without candidates running would constitute a vacancy.

A request seeking clarity from the city’s corporation counsel, Dean Schneller, was not immediately returned before deadline.

In his party’s talks with potential candidates, Matthew Waite, chairperson of the Plattsburgh City Democrats, said he has experienced some of the same trepidations.

“I think some of those issues have been discussed,” he said. “I think, rightly or wrongly, there’s a perception out there that the city government is dealing with some sort of difficult environment to work in. I’ve encountered some of those concerns.”

Waite said that he’s responded to those concerns by saying that he feels those perceptions stem from both a period of time where the council was facing big changes — and the media.

“Some of the media accounts have been overstated,” Waite said of recent City Hall coverage.

“We’re also in a very polarizing time politically, and city council is a very serious time commitment — and a public time commitment. All of these factors are contributing.”

City leadership has, for over a year now, been deeply entrenched in budget talks as the mayor and council seek to rebuild Plattsburgh’s fund balance after systemic overspending; mitigate its growing healthcare liability, and shield taxpayers from a large tax increase by cutting costs wherever possible.

Both the mayor and Common Council in the past have taken some heat for a few of those cost-cutting decisions — most notably last year, when four city departments were abolished in a series of deadlocked resolutions ultimately passed with the mayor’s tie-breaking vote.

The local Republican party has spoken to multiple people over the last few weeks, most declining to run for personal reasons.

“Some said that they weren’t sure they could fit in well with the current climate, while others felt they could do well in with the current climate, but just couldn’t make the commitment at this time,” Lawson said.

The current Plattsburgh Common Council is pictured here, featuring councilors Rachelle Armstrong (Ward 1), Michael Kelly (Ward 2), Dale Dowdle (Ward 3), Peter Ensel (Ward 4), Patrick McFarlin (Ward 5) and Joshua Kretser (Ward 6).

UNCONTESTED

In Ward 5 Councilor Patrick McFarlin, who has no party designation, is running unopposed on the Democratic line.

According to Lawson, a challenger from the Republican party is unlikely.

McFarlin was appointed to his seat by Read after former city councilor Becky Kasper resigned in February, citing a “tyranny of despair” as city leadership considers Plattsburgh’s future.

When he took the slot, McFarlin, a local attorney and former planning board member, was unsure of whether or not he would run to fill the two-year remainder of Kasper’s term.

“I didn’t enter with the intention of running in November,” he told The Sun. “When the mayor appointed me, I figured I’d see how it goes and wait and see until deciding.”

In the past few months, what he’s learned about the city as a councilor has pushed him to go forward with an election campaign.

“With the recent departures and the loss of institutional memory in city government, I didn’t feel comfortable leaving the city and see a new person come in with no knowledge

NO CANDIDATES

Councilor Dale Dowdle (Ward 3), one of two Republicans currently serving on the

of how the city’s running,” he said.

The city’s Engineering, Parks and Recreation, Human Resource and IT departments were all abolished last summer in an effort to cut costs, ousting a handful of long-serving employees. The city Assessment Office was later consolidated with the county, displacing another two employees, who both declined jobs with the county.

At least three more long-serving employees, former Plattsburgh City Police Chief Kenneth Parkinson, Deputy Chamberlain Carole Garcia and Chief Water Pollution Control Plant Officer David Powell announced their retirements.

And at least six high-level staffers have resigned this year, including former Special Events Coordinator Sandra Geddes, Community Development Director Paul DeDominicas, DRI Project Coordinator Joel Wood, IT Director Bryan Brayton, Senior Engineering Clerk Jody Helfgott and Engineering Aide Adam Frazier.

“I felt like it was my civic duty to run again, and I do think I can help the city get through this and do some good,” McFarlin said.

RACE TO WATCH

The lone contested race this year appears to be that for Ward 6, which runs along most of the city’s main avenues, including Cornelia, Brinkerhoff, Bridge and Margaret streets.

Councilor Joshua Kretser (Ward 6), who has served since 2014, will join Dowdle in declining to run for re-election this November.

Both parties have endorsed candidates to fill that seat: Republican Peter Regnier, a local veteran, and Democrat Jeffrey Moore, former mayor of the Village of Champlain.

To secure the Republican ballot line Regnier must garner 13 signatures in Ward 6. Moore needs at least 30.

The Common Council is presently majority-Democratic. Only two Republicans, Dowdle and Peter Ensel (Ward 4), are currently serving on the council. ■

Long-awaited Champlain-Rouses Point trail opens Lawmakers celebrate yearslong effort with ribbon cutting

By Elizabeth Izzo STA FF W RITER

CHAMPLAIN | The changes here are unmistakable.

Where once there were patches of dirt and sand weaving through the woods in the county’s northern tier, a new paved pathway, wood barriers stretching upward at its entrance, snakes its way through the trees.

This new five-mile pathway, which officially opened to pedestrians and bicyclists alike last month, is deceptively simple.

All told, the project took four years and cost over $1.6 million to design and build. And behind the scenes, three tiers of government have had their hand in making this trail a reality.

Clinton County Legislative Chair Harry McManus (Area 1) first got the idea 50 years ago after seeing local high school students ride their bikes along a highly-trafficked area to get to school.

“The lack of a non-motorized route was a major safety issue for the children involved,” McManus said at a ribbon cutting ceremony last month. “This is where the original idea began.”

Four years ago, after multiple failed attempts to garner enough funding, the idea finally found a foothold.

The state Department of Transportation added the trail to its capital program, effectively steering $1.3 million toward the project.

In 2015 the Town and Village of Champlain, and the Village of Rouses Point, all agreed to participate.

Over time more agreements were reached: Assemblyman Billy Jones (D-Chateaugay) and state Sen. Betty Little (RQueensbury) each secured $100,000 in additional grant funding; the state Department of State chipped in another $100,000 in grant funding, the county awarded the project $35,000; and the Town of Champlain and villages of Champlain and Rouses Point all chipped in $7,900.

The endgame: To build a paved, recreational pathway that local officials hope will both increase the quality of life for locals and attract tourists to the area.

PLATTSBURGH | “Thus the world’s war was over.”

It was Nov. 11, 1918 when the story of Germany’s signing of an armistice agreement came down the wire from the Associated Press: World War I was over.

President Woodrow Wilson called WW1 the “war to end all wars,” and the thought that another would begin just over two decades later was far from the minds of the public. But before that historic moment came to fruition, communities — including Chazy — held American Red Cross fundraisers to help support aid efforts overseas.

Next weekend a summer fair in Chazy aims to honor the centennial of that time in American history.

The Alice T. Miner Museum will have exhibits showcasing artifacts from WW1 on display, and from 1-4 p.m. on July 14,

a variety of other activities are slated.

Country Dreams Farm will be on-site with horse and wagon rides.

Social dances from the 1910s will be brought back into the spotlight, courtesy of Dance Plattsburgh.

Old-style games will be resurrected for the kids of today, and the Parker Family Maple Farm will have maple softserve available.

And yes —period clothing is encouraged. Prizes will be awarded for the best 1918-inspired costumes.

“It seems people are really excited about it,” said Leni Vradelis, program coordinator for the Alice T. Miner Museum.

A costume prep party held last month attracted a few people interested in getting some tips on how to dress up, and Vradelis said she expects a number of folks to show up dressed in their best period garb.

All proceeds from the event will benefit the United Way of the Adirondack Region. A per-person donation of $5 is requested.

“We’re hoping it’ll be a nice afternoon in the sun, and an educational day for all involved,” Vradelis said.

Food shelf ditches bags Plattsburgh Interfaith Food Shelf bids plastic bags adieu

By Elizabeth Izzo STA FF W RITER

PLATTSBURGH | A mainstay in the grocery industry is no longer welcome at the Plattsburgh Interfaith Food Shelf.

The local organization, which provides food to nearly 700 households in Clinton County, has started phasing out plastic shopping bags.

The informal bag ban took effect on July 2.

“The number one reason is the environment,” food shelf coordinator Dorothy Latta told The Sun. “If we can reduce the number of plastic bags we use, we’d all feel a little better.”

-

The switchover was spurred in part by a simple calculation.

“We serve close to 700 households a month. I figured, we double bag, we could easily give each home four bags each,” she said. “We could be using over 5,000 bags in a month. That’s a lot.”

According to the New York State Plastic Bag Task Force, residents in this state use 23 billion plastic bags annually, and a large number of those bags aren’t properly disposed of, posing a threat to the environment.

A ban on plastic bags was proposed by Gov. Andrew Cuomo earlier this year, but the state legislature has not taken action.

“We’re looking to encourage not using plastic bags,” Latta said.

“We just decided, well, let’s do this as our own little way of going green.”

Donations of paper, canvas and other reusable bags are still encouraged.

‘Abolish ICE’ movement gains traction Sens. Gillibrand, Warren endorse measure

By Pete DeMola EDITOR

PLATTSBURGH | The push to abolish U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) gained an additional accelerant last week when U.S. Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand became the first sitting U.S. senator to call for the dismantling of the agency.

ICE “has become a deportation force,” wrote Gillibrand on Twitter. “We need to separate immigration issues from criminal justice. We need to abolish ICE, start over and build something that actually works.”

Gillibrand, often mentioned as a 2020 Democratic presidential contender, followed up her comments with a fundraising blast.

As outrage continues to simmer over the Trump administration’s “zero tolerance” crackdown — including in the North Country, which saw protests in Glens Falls and Plattsburgh as part of a nationwide day of action on Saturday — dismantling the agency has become the latest political litmus test for Democrats heading into this fall’s midterm elections.

Stefanik honored for securing community health center funding Funds to aid Hudson Headwaters

By Pete DeMola EDITOR

QUEENSBURY | Hudson Headwaters was heading towards an iceberg earlier this year following the pending expiration of a Affordable Care Act-related funding stream for community health centers.

The health care provider was poised to lose about $4 million, which would have severely hamstrung operations.

“It would have been a 72 percent reduction in federal support for our program, which would be disastrous,” said Hudson Headwaters Executive Chairman Dr. John Rugge.

More than 23 million Americans utilize community health care centers for their primary care needs, including 2 million in New York state and 95,000 in New York’s 21st Congressional District.

$7.8 BILLION

While Rep. Elise Stefanik’s bill to extend funding for five years wasn’t signed into law, the lawmaker’s CHIME

Act was ultimately folded into an appropriations package signed by the president in March.

The result was $7.8 billion allocated to community health care centers nationwide until Sept. 2019, by which point, Stefanik hopes to craft a permanent strategy to ensure a stable source of funding.

“I think that momentum with 219 cosponsors and counting allowed us to give a signal to House leadership that this was important, and allowed us to get included in the appropriations package and ultimately in the budget,” Stefanik said following a tour of Hudson Headwaters’ Queensbury facility last Friday.

Stefanik, who serves as co-chair of the Community Health Centers Caucus, visited the facility as somewhat of a victory lap.

“If we had not gotten that, the impact would have been closure of 2,800 health centers across the country, and a job loss of 15,000,” Stefanik said.

INTEGRATED APPROACH

Centers like Hudson Headwaters, which provide service to low-income, uninsured and geographically isolated residents through their 35 North Country locations, are heavily reliant on federal grants, Rugge said.

The safety net facility takes an integrated approach by housing numerous medical specialists under one roof, including behav-

BROKEN SYSTEM

Stefanik voted to repeal the Affordable Care Act last May, a measure that would have led to reduction of $880 million in Medicaid funding over the next decade.

The proposed American Health Care Act led to an outcry from health care providers and organizations across the district, which contended the reduction of funding would have harmed programing.

Asked how her health care vote meshed with the funding boost for centers like Hudson Headwaters, Stefanik said, “This is the type of example to find bipartisan coalitions and to fix aspects of the Affordable Care Act that are broken.” » Healthcare Cont. on pg. 16

ioral health specialists who can aid patients and family members with the psychological impacts of a health care diagnosis.

Rugge said the system of team-based care fosters a sense of community and teamwork, and he joined Stefanik in citing their model as a potential blueprint for providing health care across rural America.

“It’s important to make sure we continue providing that high-quality, cost-effective model of care,” Stefanik said.

“I think that every patient who sometimes feels they get a runaround in today’s health care system, that concept of a warm handoff — that’s what everybody’s looking for.”

» Healthcare Cont. from pg. 15 Stefanik said she continues to field complaints from constituents with high deductible plans over rising costs. The sophomore lawmaker also renewed calls to repeal the medical device tax and lower prescription drug costs.

UPCOMING PRIORITIES

Stefanik co-sponsored legislation in May that would allow patients with high-deductible plans to obtain access to two primary care visits per year instead of one, a measure designed to focus more on prevention and lower long-term costs for patients.

“I really think when it comes to health care, we do need to reimagine,” Stefanik said. “We need to utilize technology more effectively — that’s something Hudson Headwaters does very, very well.”

Hudson Headwaters staff said solving transportation challenges for patients and navigating Medicare’s “donut hole” prescription gap are also high priorities.

“When they fall into the donut hole, they stop taking their medication,” Leslie McNulty, a care manager, told Stefanik.

The lawmaker said she will work to ensure the federal government’s 340B program that requires pharmaceutical manufacturers to offer discounts to eligible health care organizations — including Hudson Headwaters and the

The Trump administration rolled out a plan to combat the high cost of prescription drug prices in May, but did not include provisions to allow Medicare to negotiate with drug companies, an idea popular among Democrats.

As a result of securing the funding, Stefanik was awarded the 2018 Distinguished Community Health Center Champion Award by the Community Health Center Association of New York State for going “above and beyond” in her support of the health care centers. ■

Local family boasts four generations of Girl Scouts

One local family, pictured here, has boasted four generations of Girl Scouts.

“It makes you feel like you did something worthwhile,” grandmother says

By Elizabeth Izzo STA FF W RITER

PLATTSBURGH | Beverly Rock, of Cadyville, first joined the Girl Scouts over

70 years ago.

“At that time there wasn’t much for girls to do,” Rock said.

But it was that one decision to join as a young girl that created a common thread, a constant that would help tie four generations of her family together.

After going through the ranks, Rock became a scout leader in the 1970s, and her daughter, Janet Duprey, became a scout.

“I went through to the highest level in girl scouting,” Duprey said.

Photo provided

History would repeat itself a few years later, when Duprey became a leader and her daughter Kristen Carnahan, a scout.

“I have three girls in Girl Scouts now,” Carnahan, now the leader of Troop 4065, said. “Next year, it’ll be four.”

Carnahan was recently awarded a 20-year pin to commemorate her service, and her mother, a 50-year pin.

Many things have changed in the 106-yearold youth organization since Rock first signed up, according to Carnahan.

But a few things have always remained the same: A shared sense of camaraderie with over 1.8 million scouts across the country.

The brick-by-brick construction of lifetime friendships.

Community service.

And, of course, the cookies.

“My troop averaged over $300 per person (in cookie sales) this year,” she said proudly, noting that her troop won a free weekend at camp for their efforts.

But scouting isn’t just about selling cookies — that’s a small piece of what girls do, according to Carnahan.

Kids learn a wealth of skills and knowledge, and use it to help their community.

Her troop plants flowers outside Momot Elementary School every year, Carnahan said. They donate to the local animal shelter. They work with JCEO and help with the local food shelf.

“We do a lot of community service.”

When it comes down to it, though, the lasting thing — the thing that each have taken away from their experience over the years — is the joy.

“Just to see the kids and how much fun they’re having,” Rock said. “It makes you feel like you did something worthwhile.” ■
