Hard work leads to adventure

INDIAN LAKE — This year, Indian Lake Central School has continued its efforts to provide incentives for middle school students to perform well in the classroom with Adventures for Excellence (A4E).

A4E is a school sponsored incentive program that runs in conjunction with the Prevention Education Department of Hamilton County Community Services that strives to encourage students in grades 6 - 8 to excel in school.

If a student at Indian Lake does well on a test, writes a commendable paper, etc., but does not necessarily make the honor roll every quarter their name is entered into a drawing for A4E trips.

Ten students are selected every five weeks and A4E provides the adventure.

“It’s a chance to reward them for their great efforts,” said advisor, Joanna Pine. Pine is the secretary for the guidance and special education departments at Indian Lake Central School.

Joe San Antonio of the Prevention Education Department chaperones the trips as well as provides a 12 passenger van on behalf of Hamilton County.

Indian Lake accrues all costs for the trip, which

denpubs@denpubs.com lindsay@denpubs.com RAY BROOK — The North Country took a substantial hit Jan. 18 when Gov. David Paterson unveiled his 20102011 executive budget.

And while the closing of three correctional facilities is getting the most attention in upstate New York, two other popular facilities are facing closure as well.

Paterson’s budget calls for the closure of the Adirondack Park Agency’s Visitor Interpretive Centers in Newcomb and Paul Smiths.

An official from Paterson’s budget office said shuttering the two VICs would translate to a savings of $129,000 in the coming fiscal year. The state would save $583,000 per year starting in 2011-2012.

In a Jan. 18 interview following Patterson’s speech in Albany, APA Spokesman Keith McKeever spoke about what the cuts will mean.

“In the governor ’s budget, there is a proposal to phase out the Newcomb and Paul Smiths VICs by January 2011,” McKeever said. “We won’t be laying off any staff this year. But they are planning to phase them out by next year.”

McKeever said due to New York’s economic state, all government agencies are being asked to sacrifice. He said agencies need to scale back services to match need, not want.

Agency officials are open to leaving the programs in place, but McKeever said they aren’t a top priority.

The VICs provide environmental education programs to school children and adults, and offer miles of trails for hikers, skiers and snowshoers.

“The services and programs provided by the VICs

The group started as effort by superintendent Michael Markwica to encourage independent reading at Johnsburg. According to Homer,

the book club has been successful in accomplishing their goal.

“All of these students are here because they want to be,” she said. “None of them are here because their parents forced them to come.”

NORTH CREEK — The Johnsburg Central School classroom where the fifth and sixth grade book club met on Tuesday was bubbling over with excitement.

Hands shot in the air as students waited to discuss the book they had voluntarily opted to read for no grade.

Advisor, Cindy Homer has been facilitating this group for two years and said the room is never lacking in enthusiasm.

Every Tuesday, students bring their lunches to book club and discuss topics such as the characters and plot of a book chosen by a committee of their teachers. If they finish the book, they get to keep it.

Winter classes begin at the Owens House

By Lindsay Yandon lindsay@denpubs.com NORTH CREEK — The North Creek Depot Museum and Owens House Education Center & Gallery announced this week that they will offer their inaugural Winter Workshop Series, sponsored in part by a $725 grant from LARAC this year.

The series will feature three workshops and a final evening April 24 at Tannery Pond as the Depot Museum hosts Andy Flynn, author of the Adirondack Attic series. He will present an artifact night lecture and this culmination event is free to the public.

Workshops include: “Weave and Adirondack Pack Basket” taught by Frank Morehouse on Feb. 20 from 10 a.m - 4 p.m. The materials and registration fee is $80 or $70 for museum members and students. Registration is due by Feb. 5.

“Get Started in Model Railroading” with Bill Bibby on March 1 - 4 from 6 - 8 p.m. Participants will learn about scale, layout, materials, and wiring.

The registration fee is $30 or $25 for members and students.

Registration is due by Feb. 15.

“Introduction to Photography in the Adirondacks” with Dave Braley on April 5, 8, 12, and 15 at 7 p.m. The registra-

tion fee is $20 or $15 for members and students. Registration is due by March 22.

All classes are held at the Owens House and participants can register by calling 251-5842. These events are made possible in part with public funds from the New York State Council on the Arts Decentralization Program, administered locally by the Lower Adirondack Regional Arts Council.

Workshops are open to all adults and teens. Students are encouraged to register and are offered a reduced price Michelle San Antonio, director of the North Creek Depot Museum, anticipates the workshops will appeal to people of all ages.

“I really hope that the model railroading workshop might appeal to the inner child in some adults,” she said.

These workshops are the beginning of what San Antonio hopes is a tradition of workshops and classes. If successful this year, she plans to expand the program for a second consecutive year.

“I wanted to offer some workshops that haven't been offered in this area recently and to primarily make use of the beautiful space at the Owens House Education Center & Gallery,” she said.

Aside from offering unique

educational opportunities, the workshops are designed to create exposure for the Owens House and to garner interest in the Depot Museum's goals of offering more activities for the local community. The two buildings are operated by the same non-profit, The North Creek Railway Depot Preservation Association.

“I would like the community to become more familiar with that relationship,” said San Antonio. “Even though the museum closes for the winter season, my goal as director is to offer programs at the Owens House throughout the year.”

Kelly Blackhurst and Lynn Mosher, high school students at Johnsburg Central School, get some hands-on experience in their science class.

Area Residents Named to SUNY Plattsburgh Dean's List PLATTSBURGH — Local graduates Allison Ordway of North Creek and Michael Leddick of Olmstedville were recently named to the dean's list for the fall 2009 semester at the State University of New York College at Plattsburgh.

To be eligible for the dean's list, a student must achieve a minimum 3.5 semester grade point average with at least 12 credit hours. A part-time, matriculated student is also eligible for the dean's list after accruing 12 credit hours consecutively and achieving a minimum 3.5 semester grade point average. These credits may be accumulated in more than one semester.

"We see these students as our academic all-stars," said Dr. John Ettling, SUNY Plattsburgh president. "Their caliber is evident. Through their efforts and with the help of our dedicated faculty, they continue to make us proud, both in and out of the classroom."

BLUE MOUNTAIN LAKE — The New York Council for the Humanities has awarded a Major Grant in the amount of $20,000 to the Adirondack Museum in support of the museum's new exhibit, "Let's Eat! Adirondack Food Traditions."

The grant is made possible by the National Endowment for the Humanities and the New York State Legislature.

The Adirondack Museum will celebrate food and the pleasures of eating in the Adirondack Park with the new exhibition, "Let's Eat! Adirondack Food Traditions" that will open on May 28, 2010.

From family recipes brought from the Old World to church potluck dinners or suppers around the campfire, food has always played an important role in North Country life. The history of Adirondack food culture reflects the diversity of the people who have settled here, the richness of community life, and the realities of feeding oneself in a unique environment.

"Let's Eat!" will examine the universal experience of preparing, presenting, and eating a meal while focusing on Adirondack culinary stories and traditions.

Drawing from the museum's extensive collections, the exhibit will feature the intriguing and sometimes whimsical objects Adirondackers have used to cook and eat. Handwritten menus and journals will provide an intimate look at food in family life. Posters advertising turkey shoots, dances, and potluck suppers will offer insight into the ways that food as served as the center of social life in small, often isolated hamlets. Historic photographs spanning more than 150 years will depict people dining inside and out, in crowded mess halls, on picnic blankets, and seated at elegant tables.

Interviews with Adirondack cooks, camp workers, guides, vacationers, and residents will provide first-person accounts of elaborate cookouts at Great Camps, maple sugaring, Prohibition, and the daily routine of a lumber camp cook.

The exhibit will bring the story of food in the Adirondacks to the present day with an exploration of Farmer's Markets, organic agriculture, and the rising interest in locally grown produce and meats.

For information about all that the museum has to offer, please call (518) 352-7311, or visit www.adirondackmuseum.org.

T

he Local Government Review Board does not believe that the APA should be abolished. We do believe that the APA needs to be reined in and its governing Act revised. Very clear evidence of this need is seen in recent cases where the Adirondack Park Agency threatened or attempted an enforcement action that was dropped or overturned: the Sandy Lewis farm worker housing case, the Leroy Douglas "wetlands" road case, the John Maye case about whether his house was illegally built on an existing foundation - which drew heated opposition in Lake George and other Adirondack communities and was widely reported in all Adirondack media – is more evidence of an agency overstepping its bounds. The APA is an administrative agency trying to act like a legislative body – attempting to create law and then enforce that law when it doesn't have the legal right to do so.

• We believe that the primary issue in the Adirondacks, as it has been for 20 years or more, is that so much of the state's focus has been on land acquisition that any effort to encourage and protect the economic lives of the communities has been cast aside. The recent Adirondack Park Regional Assessment project Report bore this all out: The decline in school enrollment is steeper and the median age of the population is rising more rapidly than elsewhere.

Household incomes are lower than in much of New York State. Sparse populations and regulatory practices have contributed to a lag in private sector investment in businesses, most notably in lack of broadband communication and data transfer infrastructure. The park-wide loss of private sector jobs has been somewhat offset temporarily by job increases in public health care, education and government employment. The creation of permanent jobs that pay living wages and provide benefits on which a family can depend is the most fundamental need in Adirondack communities. While jobs are needed in every community in New York State, few other communities' economic deterioration is so closely associated with the state's as the communities of the Adirondack Park.

• Local input and consent is the foundation of any successful project in the Adirondacks. Local officials are deeply knowledgeable about the needs of their towns and villages as well as how their towns and land uses fit in to the SLMP. The Agency was envisioned to work cooperatively with governments and landowners to preserve and foster vibrant hamlets as well as protect state Forest Preserve. But as recent times have shown – with three former members of the Adirondack Council on the agency's Board – the Agency seems more interested in targeting landown-

ers than targeting problems. It is an inappropriate closeness – one that the environmental lobby would be upset about if the APA Board were made up of large developers or business people.

• Along the same lines as local input on projects, we need more local input on the APA nominees. In order to more fully include the perspectives of the full-time residents of the Adirondacks, the five local commissioners appointed by the Governor for the Adirondack Park Agency Board should be chose from a list submitted by us each time there is an opening, as was informally done under some previous governors.

• We believe there should be opportunity for judicial review of the APA's decisions by local government - but the Adirondack Park Local Government Review Board does not have standing to seek judicial review. A court decision in 1982 ruled that because the APA act didn't explicitly state that the Review Board had standing, it doesn't. The Attorney General also argued in the multi-county, multitown lawsuit against the APA, regarding the 2008 regulations, that the counties and towns lacked both capacity to sue the Agency and standing. We are seeking to change that because that means current legal decisions that directly affect the financial condition, municipal services, future growth, and programs of local governments are being made in the absence of those officials who are elected by their communities to represent the concerns of their constituents.

• We have been reviewing the Tug Hill Commission's structure and mission as one example of what we'd like to see happen at the Adirondack Park Agency -- where the executive law that creates it says it is geared toward the "conservation and productive use of the natural resources of the region, strengthening the long-term economy, employment, cultural and social resources, and the general well-being of the rural communities."

• We're working with local officials and Review Board members -- as well as our residents and businesses -- for input on other questions or concerns they may have. In short, without reining in the Adirondack Park Agency, and creating economic opportunities, quality employment and affordable housing (among other needs) in the Adirondack Park, the economic life of the region will continue to deteriorate.

Johnsburg Goes to War: 1861-1865 T

his is my fourth column researching men from Johnsburg who served in the Union forces in Civil War for a program at Tannery Pond in Sept. of 2011 and I have been quite pleased with the calls and comments I’m already receiving. I received a nice call from Mike McSweeney in Florida with information I’ll be sharing in future columns.

I also heard from Ray Smith of Long Lake who is related to many by the name of Coulter and Prouty here in Johnsburg. Ray shared with me that the 1850 census lists John Bartman (column of Jan. 16) as a lawyer in Queensbury, NY. When he enlisted in Johnsburg in 1864 in the 91st NY Volunteer Infantry it was noted that he was a minister.

Eugene Albulescu delivers “dazzling” performance Essex County bus service needs improvement To the News Enterprise: I support the Essex County attempt to provide bus service, but it has serious problems. I was the only passenger on four buses this past week. There are no schedules available at the stops, on the buses, on the Essex County website,and apparently not even the Director of Transportation of Essex County has one that she will share. My email to her went unanswered. I finally found a schedule at the local visitors bureau. The bureau worker e-mailed it to me.

I am retired, live in Jay and rely on the bus service to get around. I discovered this week that I can't wait at the stop at the Jay green, because the drivers don't stop there. I have to walk to a street next to the square and wait there. That way I can wave at the bus driver before he makes his turn to bypass the square. Otherwise I walk home. Last Saturday, two buses failed to honor the schedule, and I had to walk home. Watching the bus go by isn't the same as getting on.

I've noticed other problems and I sent an email letter to the Transportation Director, but have got no response. The problems I have personally seen are: 1) There are no posted schedules, except at the visitors bureau.

2) Drivers are leaving stops before scheduled times.

3) Drivers are not stopping at every stop.

4) Drivers are exhibiting serious driving skill problems.

One of them speeds through the curves between AuSable Forks and Jay, making the eleven minute trip in 7 minutes flat. Another driver jerks the steering wheel left and right, as if the brand new bus has a loose front end.

6) The schedule doesn't allow enough time for drivers to make the Jay to AuSable Forks leg. Google Maps says the 6.3 mile trip will take 11 minutes, but Essex County allows only 10 minutes. Five minutes extra per trip leg will take care of most contingencies.

If this bus service is going to be successful, someone needs to take charge of it.

Thank you, Home Economics teachers To the News Enterprise: A while ago, I was chatting with a woman over one of those styrofoam breakfasts found in Interstate motels. She told me that she was a retired Home Economics teacher from the Buffalo area.

I found myself with a lump in my throat as I explained that I had never taken the opportunity to thank my own Home Ec. teacher of 50 years ago for teaching me so many things that I use every day of my life - how to make biscuits, white sauce, pie crust, why baking soda needs an acid to work in baked goods, how to read patterns and to create an apron, gather a skirt, or measure and sew a hem.

Most of all, I learned the pleasure of sitting around a classroom table with dear friends and a wise mentor - talking about the mysteries and joys of 8th-grade life, while working on a project or reading recipes we could complete in 45 minutes.

All these years later, I still love to sit with my friends to discuss life, cooking, and all sorts of other things. Just like my Home Ec. class back in Ohio in 1952.

Susan Forrest North River

To the News Enterprise: I had a Saturday night free from playing with my band and was looking forward to an evening at home. But, on the contrary, my wife encouraged me to attend an evening of classical piano at the Tannery Pond Community Center on this evening of Jan. 23, featuring Eugene Albulescu. After church and a lovely dinner at a local restaurant, we made our way to the concert.

We were treated to a dazzling display of musicianship seldom heard in our area. We were hearing piano interpretations of Scarlatti, Beethoven, Haydn, and Liszt by Mr. Albulescu that made us realize we were in the presence of a higher being. He didn’t conquer the Beethoven Piano Sonata, he embraced it with a passion for drama, drawing out Beethoven’s ego, note by note, measure by measure, and conflict by conflict. The piano “sang” with expression from flawless technique to beautiful melodic interpretations. The various treatments of the motifs were clear and pronounced.

Maybe I am over-analyzing, but what I heard was pure genius.

Thank you to the Upper Hudson Musical Association for bringing Mr. Albulescu to our part of the universe.

Newcomb to expand snowmobile trail system

VICs From page 1 are well-received in our communities and they’re valuable programs, but they are generally accepted as not being part of the agency’s core mission,” he said. “In these very difficult times, tough choices have to be made, and regrettably the VICs are being proposed to be phased out.”

Although the savings to the state are minimal, McKeever said the savings for the APA are fairly substantial.

“It’s a significant savings in the agency’s

budget,” he said.

The APA has been leasing the land surrounding the Paul Smith’s VIC and SUNY ESF for nearly two decades, McKeever said.

“It’s private land, it’s not forest preserve,” he said. “This year, in our budget, we reduced the cost of repaying the lease by giving the college back the opportunity to do some commercial logging and some educational programs on the property. There will be some opportunities in the future to use that land.”

McKeever could not say how many jobs will be affected by the closure of the two VICs.

Elmentary student at Newcomb Central School, Jacob Helms reads over his work before handing it in.

If closed, the Huntington Wildlife Forest land that hosts the Newcomb VIC will remain in the possession of Syracuse University and maintained by the SUNY ESF. Newcomb Supervisor, George Canon is hopeful that VIC programs will continue to be offered despite the threat of closure.

“The town is willing to to discuss ways to keep the VIC operational,” he said. “We do not, however, have the funds to operate it independently.”

Canon said he will do what he can to make sure the doors of the VIC do not close on the town of Newcomb and the surrounding communities.

NEWCOMB — Although Gov. David Paterson has proposed a two-year moratorium on state land purchases, New York State still plans to move forward with a conservation easement which will allow Newcomb and other local communities to develop snowmobile trail connections.

The agreement will open 89,000 acres of Adirondack timberland to new snowmobiling and other recreational opportunities, according to Mike Carr, executive director of the Adirondack Chapter of The Nature Conservancy.

The plan was part of a massive land acquisition by The Nature Conservancy in 2007 of 161,000 acres from the Finch Pruyn Mill in Glens Falls.

The new snowmobile trails will include connections between the towns of Newcomb and North Hudson along the Boreas River, between the towns of Newcomb and Indian Lake as well as between the towns of Newcomb and Minerva.

The new system will open up about 60 miles of new trail, according to Newcomb Supervisor, George Canon.

“The trails will be ridable next season,” he said.

A considerable amount of work is yet to be done on the trails, but Canon is hopeful that their acquisition will be a positive addition to the town of Newcomb.

“These trails would open up a travel route to the Old Forge trail system and that’s a big deal,” he said.

Discussion are being planned between the involved communities as to who will maintain the trails and provide grooming services, he said.

preventable conditions through education and wellness programs. In my opinion, this cannot happen with the majority of the population showing such a rapid rise in preventable conditions such as diabetes, heart disease and much more.

In January of 2002 I was very encouraged by the words of the Surgeon General. The following is what I wrote at that time:

The Surgeon General issues a community call to action as health problems resulting from overweight and obesity could reverse many of the health gains in recent decades. In preparation of this report several strategies were reviewed for their proven scientific effectiveness. Two important ones being to: 1) Change the perception of obesity so that health becomes the chief concern, not personal appearance.

2) Educate health care providers and health profession students on the prevention and treatment of overweight and obesity across the lifespan.

"Overweight and obesity are among the most pressing new health challenges we face today," Health & Human Service Secretary Tommy G. Thompson said. "Our modern environment has allowed these conditions to increase at alarming rates and become a growing health problem for our nation. By confronting these conditions, we have tremendous opportunities to prevent the unnecessary disease and disability they portend for our future."

Surgeon General David Satcher recently said "Overweight and obesity may soon cause as much preventable disease and death as cigarette smoking. People tend to think of overweight and obesity as strictly a personal matter, but there is much that communities can and should do to address these problems.” Administrators of Insurance Programs and employers need to take a

Sprinkle From page 9 a serious look at Preventative Health Care Programs and the importance they play in reducing healthcare and insurance costs for everyone.

Obesity among adults has doubled since 1980, while overweight among adolescents has tripled.

Only 3 percent of all Americans meet at least four of the five federal Food Guide Pyramid recommendations. Forty percent of adults engage in no leisuretime physical activity at all. Weight loss, while the long term goal, should not be the initial goal of a successful return to a health/obesity reduction program. The first results should be: increased energy,

better thinking power, sleep better, an added spring to the step, in general feeling better. Bodyfat reduction is the best true guideline, rather than weight loss. Many of our current popular diet programs promote weight loss, but with bodyfat percentages increasing and health risks increasing with these weight loss programs. We can see the results of the last few decades of dieting. Arthritis, diabetes, hypertension are for the most created by a few years of poor eating. Modern medicine can keep us alive longer, it’s up to us to improve the quality of those years.

Remember the above was written almost 10 years ago and obesity figures have only increased since then. No longer can it be assumed that only the unlucky few get these preventable conditions and it’s just the luck of the draw. Even heredity might not

SATURDAY January 30, 2010 play the part that many believe. What a difference healthy eating and moderate activity could make.

We as individuals need to take responsibility for what we ingest and our activity levels. The old adage move it or lose it has proven very true.

Wanda Sykes in a recent comedy routine joked about health care reform, saying that she’s for it but apparently some aren’t. Adding that it should be for everyone, well…..everyone except competitive eaters because “if you eat 65 hot dogs in 20 minutes and your hearts stops beating….then that’s on you.”

Well, that and I’d have to add if you eat poison and junk every day for the majority of your eating, well maybe that’s on you. Until the majority of the population, rather than the minority, understand and practice a healthy lifestyle, insurance can never be affordable.

Queensbury’s Stec has eye on Capitol Hill

Dan Stec Scott Murphy has been in office, we have taken on hundreds of billions of dollars — unprecedented levels of spending. And they’re now talking about increasing the Constitutional debt limit so we can borrow more, and I think people have had it on those fronts.”

In his fourth term as Queensbury Supervisor, Stec is Chairman of the Warren County Board of Supervisors Finance Committee.

Although he is still only mulling his candidacy, Stec is already doing his best to label Murphy as a rubber-stamp Democrat who is in lockstep with the Congressional Democratic leadership.

“Scott Murphy votes the party line and does what Nancy Pelosi tells him too,” Stec said. “He voted against health care because they had the votes and in my estimation he voted

State looks to slash environmental funds, cap Adirondack land purchases

By Chris Morris denpubs@denpubs.com SARANAC LAKE — As New Yorkers weigh the repercussions of Gov. David Paterson’s 2010-2011 Executive Budget, environmental officials are fuming over the massive proposed cuts to environmental and conservation programs.

The governor ’s preliminary budget calls for a two-year moratorium on new land acquisitions in the Adirondacks, as well as further cuts to the state’s Environmental Protection Fund.

Brian Houseal, executive director of the environmental advocacy group the Adirondack Council, said the cuts Paterson is proposing are – quote – “way out of proportion with cuts being made to other areas of the state budget.”

“This budget plan will cause instant and irreversible harm to the environment in general, and to the Adirondacks in particular,” Houseal said.

Adirondack Council Spokesman John Sheehan agreed.

“This is a terrible budget for the environment,” he said. “The dedicated money set up for the environment is essentially being diverted to non-environmental purposes in a way we think is not consistent with state law.”

As for the cap on state land purchases, Adirondack Council Legislative Director Scott Lorey said he was “disappointed with the proposed moratorium.”

Lorey said the council will testify before the Legislature during a budget hearing next week. He hopes to lay out before lawmakers the full impact of Paterson’s plan to cut $69 million from the Environmental Protection Fund.

“Last year it was at $212 million and he’s proposed even less than that,” Lorey added.

“We were hoping for closer to $300 million, that’s where we thought we’d be a couple of years ago and we’re now at less than half of that. And it’s not just about land acquisitions; it’s about recycling, it’s about solid waste facilities, it’s about parks. There’s a lot of different programs out there that will be hurt by the governor ’s proposed cuts.”

mer U.S. Navy Officer and has Bachelors and Masters degrees in Business Administration.

He said that he has recently met with two county party chairmen and several regionally influential Republicans and thus far has heard pledges of support from Assemblywoman Teresa Sayward and others.

Stec said that he plans on making his final decision about his potential candidacy by early spring.

At this point, he is the first Republican to announce interest in challenging Murphy for the Congressional seat.

WARRENSBURG — If the reaction is positive among upstate G.O.P. leaders, this November’s race for New York’s 20th Congressional seat could pit neighbor against neighbor, as Republican Queensbury Supervisor Dan Stec is considering challenging Democratic incumbent Scott Murphy of Glens Falls.

Stec said this week he is conferring with his political mentors to determine whether he should run for the office.

Stec’s announcement is the first from potential challengers of Murphy, who has only held the seat since he defeated GOP Assemblyman Jim Tedisco in a special election last spring.

Stec said Jan. 22 he has begun meeting with Republican Party leaders from the 10 counties in the 20th District and that he won’t make a final decision until he has gauged their support.

And considering the traditional demographics of the district and the current mood of the American populace at large, Stec sees real potential for a fiscally conservative candidate.

“Everyone can debate how we got here — is it the current administration’s fault, or the previous administration’s fault?” Stec said. “The fact of the matter is since President Obama has been in office and

against it because they told him he could.”

But Murphy said that he voted against the House Health Care Reform plan because it would have increased the costburden on local businesses.

However, Stec said that Murphy was only allowed to do so by the Democratic leadership so that he wouldn’t torpedo his own re-election bid.

He noted that the recent upset victory of Republican Scott Brown in the race for the U.S. Senate seat — vacated by the death of Democratic luminary Ted Kennedy — signals the rejection by moderates and independents of the Democratic agenda spearheaded by President Barack Obama and House Majority Leader Nancy Pelosi.

And for Stec, the race would come down to two topics, he said.

“If I run, it will be an issues campaign and it will center on fiscal issues and health care,” Stec said. “There are other issues that I’m sure we disagree on, but the two big issues of the day right now are the level of debt and spending that’s going on in Washington and the direction of where health care is going.”

According to the state Office of the Comptroller, Queensbury was the largest town in the state without a town tax last year and Stec said that this is proof of his fiscally conservative values.

Just 40 years old, Stec is a for-

In the wake of the recent thaw and heavy rains, most area lakes are awash with several inches of water. With streams and rivers running high with the runoff, anglers should avoid traveling near inlets, outlets and other areas where current can weaken the ice.

arlier in the week, the first major thaw of the season roared through the region, delivering wind gusts in excess of 50 mph and horizontal rains.

With up to two inches of rain reported in some areas, the storm provided a natural Zamboni that refreshed ice surfaces to a polished gleam. However, with forecasts indicating that a snowstorm was soon to follow, lakes will likely be sloppy for a while, with a slushy mix of standing water and snow.

Skiing has gone Wild In Tupper Many area residents have fond memories of learning how to ski at a local ski center.

At one time, these small, community ski centers could be found in nearly every township in the Adirondacks.

a safe, easy and relatively inexpensive introduction to the sport. Most of the centers featured rope tows, a J-bar or a T-bar to haul prospective daredevils up the slopes.

Chairlifts were primarily reserved for ski centers that were built on mountains, not hills.

The small, community ski centers were places where parents could drop off the kids, with few worries. They were considered an extension of the village, where you knew everybody and everybody knew you.

Our parents seemed to like it that way.

In Lake Placid, the ski hills where local kids flocked were places like Fawn Ridge, Scotts Cobble and Mt. Whitney.

In Saranac Lake novices took to Mt. Pisgah, and fortunately, they still do. Otis Mountain was the favored hill for residents of Elizabethtown, Lewis, Westport and Moriah, while Paleface Mountain served the locals from nearby Jay, Keene, Ausable Forks and Keeseville.

The communities of Cranberry Lake, Clifton and Fine had the Clifton/ Fine Lions Club Ski Center that was located behind the Twin Lakes Hotel in Star Lake.

Long Lake retains its town ski center, as does Schroon Lake. Both communities continue to draw visitors from the nearby towns of Newcomb, Blue Mountain Lake and Raquette Lake.

Further south, Hickory Hill still handles novices from places such as Bolton Landing, Warrensburg, Schroon Lake, Minerva and beyond. After several years of inactivity, this small center has been revived this year, much to the enjoyment of the local communities.

However, the rope tows no longer have mittens frozen to them in places like the Harvey Mountain/Garnet Mountain in North River, Lyon Mountain Ski Hill near

Dannemora, Maple Ridge in Old Forge, The Redford Tow in Saranac, Baldpate Ski Club in Crown Point or the Silver Bells Ski Hill in Wells.

Most young skiers of my generation, in the 1970’s, cut their teeth (or at least chipped a few), while practicing stem-turns and hot dogging on such smaller hills. Once we thought we were good enough, we attempted to tackle the larger mountains of Whiteface and Gore, which beckoned us with groomed trails, steep drops and even a gondola.

Located in Tupper Lake, the Big Tupper Ski Area once served as a proving ground for local kids from the surrounding communities of Piercefield, Long Lake, Cranberry Lake and beyond. However, as with most of the region’s small, community operated ski centers the chairlifts stopped running at Big Tupper over a decade ago.

The lifts and groomers at Big Tupper have remained silent ever since. Until this year!

Fortunately, for both the community and especially its youth, the lifts and rope tows at Big Tupper now run again! Through the concerted efforts of a community support group called ARISE, funding for the operation was raised through a combination of donations and fundraising events.

A brigade of dedicated local volunteers spend many hours on the hill, shoring up the equipment, grooming and painting the complex, while an all volunteer Ski Patrol took to the slopes. Volunteers and community minded citizens became the heart and soul of Big Tupper.

Now in full operation, a lift ticket at Big Tupper costs only $15 a day for adults, $9 for youth and free for children under 6 and seniors. The mountain will be in operation from Friday through Sunday for the remainder of the season, snow conditions permitting.

The mission of the Big Tupper Ski Area reopening project is to provide a basic, no

frills, affordable ski/snowboarding experience for individuals and families. The project at Big Tupper is a locally initiated, volunteer based, not-for-profit venture.

Contact the ski center at SkiBigTupper.Org or call 518-359-3730 to check on snow conditions.

In an effort to provide an added bonus, The Wild Center in Tupper Lake recently announced that beginning Friday, Jan. 29 until Sunday, March 7, people who purchase either a ticket to The Wild Center or a day pass to ski at Big Tupper will get a pass to the other venue for free.

Both the ski mountain and the center have adult tickets priced at $15, and the free ticket can be redeemed for up to two weeks from when they are issued. You can buy a museum ticket one day, and hold off on the skiing until the next dump of snow or vice versa. Tickets are non-transferable.

The Wild Center offers Winter Wildays both Saturdays and Sundays, with a full slate of indoor and outdoor activities and presentations. The museum website hosts an outdoor webcam that shows local snow conditions.

“The old and the new are coming together to make Tupper Lake the place to be this winter,” said Stephanie Ratcliffe, executive director of The Wild Center. “Adults who skied Big Tupper as teenagers are returning to teach their kids how to ski. They can have that cool, old-style experience at Big Tupper, and then drive 10 minutes to this cool, new-type of museum, The Wild Center. With prices like this, people can say good-bye to “staycations.”

“Big Tupper holds such fond memories for people. When many smaller ski areas have closed down, it’s heartening to see how the residents of Tupper Lake pulled together to open Big Tupper again,” said Jim LaValley of Ski Big Tupper. “For people who want the more intimate, family feeling of skiing. The Wild Center is an amazing place for young and old alike. With their calendar of Winter Wildays, there’s even more to do in Tupper Lake this winter.”

COUNTY • NEWS ENTERPRISE - 13

County Manager responds to rumors of nepotism

By Matt Bosley matt@denpubs.com ELIZABETHTOWN — Amid calls for better disclosure in Essex County government hiring practices, Essex County officials are going the extra mile to dispel surging rumors of nepotism.

Several county officials have drawn scrutiny following a news article earlier this month that mentioned county positions recently granted to their relatives.

Most prominent among them is County Manager Dan Palmer, who, together with his wife, Board of Supervisors Clerk Deborah Palmer, is related to at least five other county employees.

Palmer, along with many town supervisors, has been quick to dispel any implications of nepotism, repeatedly stating that he has been completely up front with the hirings of all his relatives and has not imposed undue influence over the hiring process.

In a Jan. 22 interview, Palmer acknowledged that many county employees are related to each other, as has been the case for many years; but he said that doesn’t mean any unethical hiring practices have occurred.

“The worst thing a department head can do is hire a bad employee,” said Palmer, noting how, after six months on the job, employees in many positions become permanent and it becomes very difficult to remove them from the position.

For that reason, Palmer explained, many department heads tend to choose someone whose family has a history of employment at the county because they see them as a safe bet.

“You know that they have a strong work ethic; they come from a family with a strong work ethic, so it’s a known quantity,” Palmer said.

One example is Brianne Weber, Deborah Palmer ’s daughter, who was hired in 2008 to work in the County Clerk’s office. The hire, which required no Civil Service test or minimum qualifications, was authorized by County Clerk Joe Provoncha, Dan Palmer ’s cousin.

“I think it had a lot to do with the fact that he knew Deb,” Palmer said, noting his wife’s long record as a hard-working, dependable county employee.

Though there may be blood ties between some county employees, Palmer said it doesn’t necessarily mean that they’re breaking rules against nepotism, where officials use their power as leverage to get friends and family a job.

While many town supervisors can and do write letters of recommendation or make phone calls on behalf of friends and family who’ve applied, Palmer explained, they are not allowed to imply that they will take any reciprocal action based on the decision of whether to hire a specific person.

“I’ve never called any department [about a hire] because I understand that when you’re in a position of influence, those single phone calls are a violation of ethics policy,” said Palmer. “People come to me and ask, ‘Can you put in a good word for me?’ and I say, ‘No, I really can’t.’”

One thing Palmer said he’d like to see change in the county’s hiring policy is how it currently allows for management staff to supervise their own relatives. Department heads can also hire relatives in their own department with notification to the personnel director and the chairman of the board.

For his part, Palmer said he has 11 staff working directly under him, and none of them are his relatives.

“Do I oversee the department heads? Sure I do,” said Palmer, “but in a county this small, it’s just not possible to say that nobody can have anyone related to them under them somewhere.”

Some have suggested the fact that Palmer serves alongside

his wife is, in itself, a conflict of interest. Palmer disagrees.

Both Palmer ’s position and that of his wife are immediately subordinate to the board of supervisors, he said; there is no interplay between the two, and therefore no possibility for impropriety.

“I don’t oversee the Clerk of the Board and the clerk doesn't oversee me,” said Palmer. “She doesn’t answer to me and I don’t answer to her.”

Exempt positions Civil Service exams, which are administered periodically by the New York State Department of Civil Service, serve as one of the main roadblocks to favoritism in county government hiring.

Such exams require department heads to hire from among the top scorers on the written tests – normally the top three for a given position. Only when the someone in the top three turns down the job do applicants further down the list come up for consideration.

However, as Palmer explained, some county positions are exempt from Civil Service requirements and were designed to allow the appointing authority to hire whoever they want.

Examples include Patti Doyle, Deborah Palmer ’s sister-inlaw, who was recently hired as confidential secretary to District Attorney Kristy Sprague. Shona Doyle, also Deborah Palmer ’s sister-in-law, was appointed in her place as deputy election commissioner, also an exempt position.

“The difficult thing about those jobs is you can have your job one day and not the next,” he said, noting that the people filling those positions often change when the head of the department changes.

“The exempt positions in public service are really employees ‘at-will,’” Palmer added. “If we want you, we want you; if we don’t, we don’t.”

Other positions, such as low-level laborers and trainees, have no minimum requirements, civil service exam, or job specifications. Department heads can hire whichever applicant they feel is best qualified, though trainees must become qualified for a higher position within a year.

Erica Fuller was hired in the personnel department while Palmer was still the director there. She later became engaged to and married Patti Doyle’s son.

“When I hired her there, I hired her as a trainee,” Palmer said. “In that time, she got her GED, took a civil service test for typist, and did it in a year ’s time.”

il Service exam is given.

“Chances are, if they score in the top three, they’re going to remain in that position,” said Palmer.

Some have accused county officials of changing a job title to allow provisional employees who don’t score high enough to remain in their position.

Palmer denied that practice, though he did say job titles of vacant positions can be changed, even one for which several people have applied and taken a Civil Service exam. In some cases, the title can be changed to a trainee position that requires no exam or minimum qualifications.

“It is a controversial issue,” said Palmer, “because people will take the test and they will score in the top three, and then they find out that the position has been reclassified.”

Still, he stressed that such situations rarely occur, and giving the position a different title must always be met with the approval of the personnel director.

“When I was personnel director, you better have had a valid reason for doing it,” said Palmer, noting how his successor, Monica Feeley, takes a similar approach.

Posting a list?

Some on the board of supervisors have echoed a suggestion by Essex resident Sandy Lewis to disclose related county employees on a running list.

Palmer said he would not be opposed to listing employees related to high-ranking county officials, but he would be worried about the impression it would give.

“My concern is if you all of a sudden put out a list saying so-and-so is related to so-and-so, the assumption is going to be that there was some favoritism that got them the job,” he said.

Palmer gave the example of Elizabethtown supervisor Noel Merrihew’s daughter, Chelsea, who scored highest on her Civil Service exam while applying to her position in the County Clerk’s office.

“Noel never called anybody,” said Palmer. “Chelsea worked hard and got that job on her own.”

Ideally, said Palmer, people worried about the hiring of relatives would simply contact the personnel office to find out the real story.

“I wish people, if they had a question or a problem understanding something, would just call and ask,” said Palmer, noting that he and other county officials are always forthcoming about hiring practices.

InBrief

Provisional Hires Some county jobs, especially those with low minimum qualifications, consistently garner upwards of 50 applicants, Palmer said, but some positions with specific skill sets are harder to fill.

In cases where less than three people have taken the Civil Service exam for a vacant competitive-class position, county officials are allowed to hire someone provisionally.

“Provisionals absolutely have to meet the minimum qualifications to be appointed to the position,” said Palmer, noting that provisional hires are often necessary because the next available Civil Service exam for a position may not be given for several months.

Provisional employees have to take the test when it becomes available, but can remain in the position if less than three people pass the test, even if they fail it themselves. If they fail it a second time or don’t reach the top scores, they must be removed from the position within 60 days.

Department heads often have a preference to permanently hire provisional employees, Palmer said, because those people often receive six to nine months of training before a Civ-

Johnsburg starts strong, falls to the Eagles

By Lindsay Yandon lindsay@denpubs.com

Bolton 42 Johnsburg 26 JOHNSBURG — The Jaguars stirred up an aggressive duel against Bolton Jan. 21, but couldn’t pull off a victory.

After Johnsburg took the lead at 15-7 in the first quarter, the score was tied at 18-18 at the half. Bolton doubled Johnsburg’s scoring in the third quarter and put up a 24-8 run in the second half to secure the victory.

“We played great defense, but turnovers really hurt us,” said Jaguar head coach Mike Pelletier.

Johnsburg carries a 5-7 overall record and is 4-1 in the league. Their overall record makes their upcoming game against league leader Indian Lake-Long Lake not as important as it should be, according to Pelletier.

Taylor Ordway led the Jaguars in scoring and finished with a team-high 12 points, including two threepointers. Ben Richards put up eight points and Adrian Veldman finished with three points. Kevin Conner put up a single basket and Andrew Veldman tallied one point.

Dom Pfau scored 12 points and Billy Smith added 11 for Bolton.

Despite some difficult losses, Johnsburg is a longshot for a league title, but is hopeful about sectionals.

“We are making a strong push towards sectionals and hopefully we will get there,” said Pelletier.

At right: Adrian Veldman puts up a three point shot late in the Jaguars’ game against Bolton Jan. 21. They fell to the Eagles 42-26.

A motor vehicle use tax, authorized pursuant to Sections 1202(a) and (c) and 1201(e) of the Tax Law, is hereby imposed in the following manner: (1) A tax of $5.00 per annum for the use of passenger motor vehicles of a type commonly used for non-commercial purposes owned by residents of the County for each such vehicle weighing 3,500 pounds or less and a tax of $10.00 per annum for such vehicles weighing in excess of 3,500 pounds; (2) A tax of $10.00 per annum for the use of trucks, buses and other such commercial vehicles used principally in connection with a business carried on within the County.

SECTION 6. PAYMENT OF TAX AND EVIDENCE OF TAX PAYMENT. (a) Every owner of a motor vehicle subject to tax hereunder shall pay the tax thereon to the Commissioner on or before the date upon which he or she registers or renews his or her registration thereof or is required to register or renew his or her registration thereof pursuant to Section 401 of the Vehicle and Traffic Law. (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 400 of the Vehicle and Traffic Law to the contrary, the payment of such tax shall be a condition precedent to the registration or renewal thereof of such motor vehicle and to the issuance of any certificate of registration and plates or removable tag specified in Subdivision 3 of Section 401 and Sections 403 and 404 of the Vehicle and Traffic Law, and no such certificate of registration, plates or tag shall be issued unless such tax has been paid.

The Commissioner shall not issue a registration certificate for any motor vehicle for which the registrant’s address is within the County except upon proof in a form approved by the Commissioner that such tax has been paid or is not due with respect to such motor vehicle. The Com-

NEWS ENTERPRISE - 17 missioner, upon application, shall furnish to each taxpayer paying the tax a receipt for such tax and to each such taxpayer or exempt person a statement, document or other form approved by the Commissioner, pursuant to the last sentence, showing that such tax has been paid or is not due with respect to such motor vehicle.

SECTION 7. RETURNS. (a) At the time the payment of the tax imposed by this local law becomes due, every person subject to tax hereunder shall file a return with the Commissioner in such form and containing such information as may be prescribed by such Commissioner. The taxpayer’s application for registration or the renewal of registration shall constitute the return required under this local law, unless the Commissioner, by regulation, shall otherwise provide. (b) Returns shall be preserved for three years and thereafter until the Commissioner permits them to be destroyed. (c) The Commissioner may require amended returns or certificates of facts to be filed within twenty (20) days after notice and to contain the information specified in the notice. Any such certificate shall be deemed to be part of the return required to be filed. (d) If a return required by this local law is not filed or if a return when filed is incorrect or insufficient on its face, the Commissioner or the Treasurer, if designated as his or her agent, shall take the necessary steps to enforce the filing of such a return or of a corrected return.

SECTION 8. DETERMINATION OF TAX. If a return required by this local law is not filed or if a return when filed is incorrect or insufficient or if a tax or any part thereof due hereunder be not paid when required, the amount of tax due shall be determined by the Commissioner or by the Treasurer, if designated as his or her agent, from such information as may be obtainable, including motor vehicle registration with the Department of Motor Vehicles of the State of New York and/or other factors.

Notice of such determination shall be given to the person liable for the tax. Such determination shall finally and irrevocably fix the tax unless the person against whom it is assessed, within thirty (30) days after the giving of notice of such determination, shall apply to the Commissioner or to the Treasurer, if designated as his or her agent, for a hearing or unless such commissioner or agent, as the case may be, on his or her own motion shall redetermine the same. After such hearing, the Commissioner, if he or she holds the hearing, or the Treasurer, if the Treasurer holds the hearing, shall give notice of the determination of such application to the person against whom the tax is assessed. Such determination shall be reviewable for error, illegality or unconstitutionality or any other reason whatsoever by a proceeding under Article 78 of the Civil Practice Law and Rules if application therefor is made to the Supreme Court within four months after the giving of the notice of such determination. A proceeding under Article 78 of the Civil Practice Law and Rules shall not be instituted unless the amount of any tax sought to be reviewed, with penalties and interest thereon, if any, shall be first deposited with the Commissioner and there shall be filed with the Commissioner an undertaking, issued by a surety company authorized to transact business in this state and approved by the Superintendent of Insurance of this state as to solvency and responsibility, in such amount as a Justice of the Supreme Court shall approve, to the effect that if such proceeding be dismissed or the tax confirmed, the petitioner will pay all costs and charges which may accrue in the prosecution of the proceeding; or at the option of the applicant, such undertaking filed with the Commissioner may be in a sum sufficient to cover the taxes, penalties and interest thereon stated in such determination, plus the costs and charges which may accrue against it in the prosecution of the proceeding, in which event the applicant shall not be required to deposit such taxes, penalties and interest as a condition precedent to the application.

SECTION 9.

REFUND OF CERTAIN UNUSED REGISTRATIONS. Whenever any fee or portion of a fee paid for the registration of a motor vehicle under the provisions of the Vehicle and Traffic Law is refunded pursuant to the provisions of Subdivision 1 of Section 428 thereof, the amount of any tax paid pursuant to this local law upon such registration shall also be refunded by the Commissioner.

SECTION 10. REFUNDS. (a) In the manner provided in this section, the Commissioner shall refund or credit, without interest, any tax, penalty or interest erroneously, illegally or unconstitutionally collected or paid if application for such refund shall be made within one year from the payment thereof to the Commissioner or to the Treasurer, if designated as his

or her agent. Whenever a refund is made, the reasons therefor shall be stated, in writing, by the Commissioner or by the Treasurer, as the case may be, who, in lieu of any refund, may allow credit therefor on payments due from the applicant. (b) An application for a refund or credit made as herein provided shall be deemed an application for a revision of any tax, penalty or interest complained of and the Commissioner or the Treasurer, if designated as his or her agent, shall hold a hearing and receive evidence with respect thereto. After such hearing, the Commissioner , if he or she holds the hearing, or the Treasurer, if the Treasurer holds the hearing, shall give notice of the determination of such application to the applicant who shall be entitled to review of such determination by a proceeding pursuant to Article 78 of the Civil Practice Law and Rules, provided that such proceeding is instituted within four months after the giving of notice in such determination, and further provided that a final determination of tax due was not previously made. Such a proceeding shall not be instituted unless an undertaking is filed with the Commissioner in such amount and with such sureties as a Justice of the Supreme Court shall approve, to the effect that if such proceeding be dismissed or the tax confirmed, the petitioner will pay all costs and charges which may accrue in the prosecution of such proceeding. (c) A person shall not be entitled to a revision, refund or credit under this section of a tax, interest or penalty which has been determined to be due pursuant to the provisions of Section 8 of this local law where he or she has had a hearing or an opportunity for a hearing, as provided in said Section, or has failed to avail himself or herself of the remedies therein provided. No refund or credit shall be made of a tax, interest or penalty paid after a determination made pursuant to Section 8 of this local law, unless it be found that such determination was erroneous, illegal or unconstitutional or otherwise improper after a hearing or, on his or her own motion, by the Commissioner or by the Treasurer, as the case may be, or in a proceeding under Article 78 of the Civil Practice Law and Rules, pursuant to the provisions of said section, in which event refund or credit without interest shall be made of the tax, interest or penalty found to have been overpaid.

SECTION 11. RESERVES. In cases where a taxpayer has applied for a refund and has instituted a proceeding under Article 78 of the Civil Practice Law and Rules to review a determination adverse to such taxpayer on his or her application for refund, the Treasurer shall set up appropriate reserves to meet any decision adverse to the County.

SECTION 12.

REMEDIES EXCLUSIVE. The remedies provided by Sections 8 and 10 of this local law shall be exclusive remedies available to any person for the review of tax liability imposed by this local law, and no determination or proposed determination of tax or determination on any application for refund shall be enjoined or reviewed by an action for declaratory judgment, an action for money had and received or by any action or proceeding other than a proceeding in the nature of a certiorari proceeding under Article 78 of the Civil Practice Law and Rules; provided, however, that a taxpayer may proceed by declaratory judgment if he or she institutes suit within 30 days after a deficiency assessment is made and pays the amount of the deficiency assessment to the Commissioner prior to the institution of such suit and posts a bond for costs as provided in Section 8 of this local law.

SECTION 13. PROCEEDING TO RECOVER TAX. (a) Whenever any person shall fail to pay any tax, penalty or interest imposed by this local law as herein provided, the County Attorney, upon the request of the Commissioner or of the Treasurer, if designated as his or her agent, shall bring or cause to be brought an action to enforce the payment of the same on behalf of the County in any court of the State of New York or of any other state of the United States. However, if in his or her discretion, the Commissioner or the Treasurer, if designated as his or her agent, believes that any such person subject to the provisions of this local law is about to cease business, leave the state or remove or dissipate the assets out of which the tax or penalty might be satisfied and that any such tax or penalty will not be paid when due, he or she may declare such tax or penalty to be immediately due and payable and may issue a warrant immediately. (b) As an additional or alternate remedy, the Commissioner or the Treasurer, if designated as his or her agent, may issue a warrant directed to the Sheriff commanding him or her to levy upon and sell the real and personal property of the person liable for the tax which may be

www.Newsenterprise.org

found within the County for the payment of the amount thereof, with any penalty and interest and the cost of executing the warrant, and to return such warrant to the person who issued it and to pay to him or her the money collected by virtue thereof within sixty (60) days after the receipt of such warrant. The Sheriff shall within five days after the receipt of the warrant, file with the Warren County Clerk a copy thereof, and thereupon such Clerk shall enter in the judgment docket the name of the person mentioned in the warrant and the amount of the tax, penalty and interest for which the warrant is issued and the date when such copy is filed.

Thereupon, the amount of such warrant so docketed shall become a lien upon the title to and the interest in real and personal property of the person against whom the warrant is issued. The Sheriff shall then proceed upon the warrant in the same manner, and with like effect as that provided by law in respect to executions issued against property upon judgments of a court of record, and for services in executing the warrant the Sheriff shall be entitled to no fee or compensation in excess of the actual expenses paid in the performance of such duty. If a warrant is returned not satisfied in full, the Commissioner or the Treasurer, as the case may be, may from time to time issue new warrants and shall also have the same remedies to enforce the amount due thereunder as if he or she had recovered judgment therefor and execution thereon had been returned unsatisfied.

SECTION 14.

GENERAL POWERS OF THE COMMISSIONER. In addition to the powers granted to the Commissioner in this local law, he or she is hereby authorized and empowered: (1) To make, adopt and amend rules and regulations appropriate to the carrying out of this local law; (2) For cause shown, to remit penalties, and to compromise disputed claims in connection with the taxes hereby imposed; (3) To request information concerning motor vehicles and persons subject to the provisions of this local law from the Department of Motor Vehicles of any other state or the Treasury Department of the United States or any city or county of the State of New York, and to afford such information to such other state, Treasury Department, city or county any provision of this local law to the contrary notwithstanding; (4) To delegate his or her functions hereunder to a deputy commissioner in the Department of Motor Vehicles or any employee or employees of his or her department; (5) To prescribe methods for determining the tax to keep such records as he or she may prescribe and to furnish such information upon his or her request; (6) To require all persons owning motor vehicles subject to tax to keep such records as he or she may prescribe and to furnish such information upon his or her request; and (7) To request the Sheriff to assist in the enforcement of the provisions of this local law.

SECTION 15.

ADMINISTRATION OF OATHS AND COMPELLING TESTIMONY. (a) The Commissioner , or his or her employees or agents duly designated and authorized by such Commissioner, shall have power to administer oaths and take affidavits in relation to any matter or proceeding in the exercise of the powers and duties under this local law. The Commissioner or the Treasurer, if designated as his or her agent, shall have the power to subpoena and require the attendance of witnesses and the production of books, papers and documents to secure information pertinent to the perform-

ance of his or her duties hereunder and of the enforcement of this local law and to examine them in relation thereto and to issue commissions for the examination of witnesses who are out of the state or unable to attend before him or her or excused from attendance. (b) A Justice of the Supreme Court, either in court or at chambers, shall have power summarily to enforce by proper proceedings the attendance and testimony of witnesses and production and examination of books, papers and documents called for by the subpoena of the Commissioner or the Treasurer, if designated as his or her agent under this local law. (c) The officers who serve the summons or subpoena of the Commissioner or the Treasurer, if designated as his or her agent, and witnesses attending in response thereto shall be entitled to the same fees as are allowed to officers and witnesses in civil cases in courts of record, except as herein otherwise provided. Such officers shall be the Treasurer and his or her duly appointed deputies, or any officers or employees of the Department of Motor Vehicles designated by the Commissioner to serve such process, or any officers or employees of the Treasurer designated by the Treasurer to serve such process.

SECTION 16.

PENALTIES AND INTEREST. (a) Any person failing to file a return or to pay any tax or any portion thereof within the time required by this local law shall be subject to a penalty of five times the amount of the tax due, plus interest of five percent of such tax for each month of delay or fraction thereof, but the Commissioner or the Treasurer, if designated as his or her agent, if satisfied that the delay is excusable, may remit all or any part of such penalty, but not interest. Penalties and interest shall be paid and disposed of in the same manner as other revenues under this local law.

Unpaid penalties and interest may be enforced in the same manner as the tax imposed by this local law. (b) The certificate of the Commissioner or of the Treasurer, if designated as his or her agent, to the effect that a tax has not been paid or that a return required by this local law has not been filed or that information has not been supplied pursuant to the provisions of this local law shall be presumptive evidence thereof.

SECTION 17. RETURNS TO BE SECRET. Except in accordance with proper judicial order or as otherwise provided by law, it shall be unlawful for the Commissioner, any officer or employee of the Department of Motor Vehicles, the Treasurer, any officer or employee of the Treasurer, any agent of the Commissioner or any person who, pursuant to this Section, is permitted to inspect any return or to whom a copy, an abstract or portion of any return is furnished or to whom any information contained in any return is furnished to divulge or make known in any manner any information contained in or relating to any return provided for by this local law.

The officers charged with the custody of such returns shall not be required to produce any of them or evidence of anything contained in them in any action or proceeding in any court, except on behalf of the Commissioner or the Treasurer in an action or proceeding under the provisions of this local law or on behalf of any party to an action or proceeding under the provisions of this local law when the returns or facts shown thereby are directly involved in such action or proceeding, in either of which events the court may require the production of and may admit in evidence so much of said returns or of the facts shown thereby as are pertinent to the action or proceeding and

no more. The Commissioner or the Treasurer, if designated as his or her agent, may nevertheless publish a copy or a summary of any determination or decision rendered after a formal hearing held pursuant to Section 8 or 10 of this local law. Nothing herein shall be construed to prohibit the delivery to a person or his or her duly authorized representative of a certified copy of any return filed by him or her pursuant to this local law or of the receipt, document or other form issued pursuant to Section 6 of this local law or a duplicate copy thereof, nor to prohibit the delivery of such a certified copy of such return or any information contained in or relating thereto to the United States of America or any department thereof, the State of New York or any department thereof or the County of Warren or any department thereof, provided that the same is required for official business, nor to prohibit the inspection for official business of such returns by the County Attorney or other legal representatives of the County or by the Warren County District Attorney, nor to exhibit the publication of statistics so classified as to prevent the identification of particular returns or items thereof.

SECTION 18. NOTICES AND LIMITATIONS OF TIME. (a) Any notice authorized or required under the provisions of this local law may be given by mailing the same to the person for whom it is intended in a postpaid envelope addressed to such person at the address given in the last return filed by him or her pursuant to the provisions of this local law, in any application made by him or her pursuant or in any application for registration made by him or her pursuant to Section 401 of the Vehicle and Traffic Law or, if no return has been filed or application made, then to such address as may be reasonably obtainable. The mailing of such notice shall be presumptive evidence of the receipt of the same by the person to whom addressed. Any period of time which is determined according to the provisions of this local law by the giving of notice shall commence to run from the date of mailing of such notice. (b) The provisions of the Civil Practice Law and Rules or any other law relative to limitations of time for the enforcement of a civil remedy shall not apply to any proceeding or action taken by the Commissioner or the Treasurer, if designated as his or her agent, to levy, appraise, assess, determine or enforce the collection of any tax or penalty provided by this local law. However, except in the case of a willfully false or fraudulent return with intent to evade the tax, no assessment of additional tax shall be made after the expiration of more than three years from the date of the filing of a return; provided, however, that where no return has been filed as provided by law, the tax may be assessed at any time. (c) Where, before the expiration of the period prescribed herein for the assessment of an additional tax, a taxpayer has consented in writing that such period be extended, the amount of such additional tax may be determined at any time within such extended period. The period so extended may be further extended by subsequent consents in writing made before the expiration of the extended period. (d) If any return, claim, statement, notice, application or other document required to be filed or any payment required to be made within a prescribed period or on or before a prescribed date under authority of any provision of this title is, after such period or such date, delivered by the United States Postal Service to the Commissioner , Treasurer, bureau, office, officer or person with which or with whom such document is required to be filed or payment

SATURDAY January 30, 2010

made, the date of the United States postmark stamped on the envelope shall be deemed to be the date of such delivery or payment. This subsection shall apply only if the postmark date falls within the prescribed period or on or before the prescribed date for the filing of such document or for making such payment, including any extension granted for such filing or payment, and only if such document or payment was deposited in the mail, postage prepaid, properly addressed to the Commissioner, Treasurer, bureau, office, officer or person with which or with whom such payment is required to be made or document filed. If any document is sent by United States registered mail, such registration shall be prima facie evidence that such document was delivered to the Commissioner, Treasurer, bureau, office, officer, or person to which or to whom addressed, and the date of registration shall he deemed the postmark date. The Commissioner is authorized to provide by regulation the extent to which the provisions of the preceding sentence with respect to prima facie evidence of delivery and the postmark date shall apply to certified mail. This subsection shall apply in the case of postmarks not made by the United States Postal Service only if and to the extent provided by regulation of the Commissioner. (e) When the last day prescribed under authority of this title (including any extension of time) for performing any act falls on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday in the State of New York, the performance of such act shall be considered timely if it is performed on the next succeeding day which is not a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday.

SECTION 19. TREASURER AS AGENT. The Commissioner is hereby authorized to designate the Treasurer as his or her agent to exercise any or all of his or her functions and powers specified or provided for in subsection (d) of Section 7 and in Sections 8, 10, 13, 15, 16 and 18 of this local law. Where the Treasurer has been so designated as agent, the Treasurer, in addition to the powers elsewhere granted to him or her in this local law, is hereby authorized and empowered: (1) To delegate such functions and powers to any employee or employees of the Treasurer; (2) For cause shown, to remit penalties and to compromise disputed claims in connection with the taxes hereby imposed; (3) To request information concerning motor vehicles and persons subject to the provisions of this local law from the Department of Transportation of the United States or any city or county of the State of New York, and to afford such information to such other state, treasury department, city or county any provision of this local law to the contrary notwithstanding; (4) To request the Sheriff to assist in the enforcement of the provisions of this local law.

SECTION 20. AGREEMENT BETWEEN TREASURER AND COMMISSIONER`. The Treasurer is hereby authorized and empowered to enter into an agreement with the Commissioner to govern the administration and collection of the taxes imposed by this local law, which agreement shall provide for the exclusive method of collection of such taxes, custody and remittal of the proceeds of such tax; for the payment by the County of the reasonable expenses incurred by the Department of Motor Vehicles in collecting and administering such tax; and for the audit, upon request of the Treasurer or his or her delegate, of the accuracy of the payment distributions and remittances to the Treasurer pursuant to the provisions of this local law, to be conducted at a time agreed upon by the State Comptroller and to be allowed not more frequently than once in each calendar year. Such agreement shall

have the force and effect of a rule or regulation of the Commissioner and shall be filed and published in accordance with any statutory requirements relating thereto.

SECTION 21. NOTIFICATION TO COUNTY ATTORNEY. The Commissioner shall promptly notify the County Attorney of any litigation instituted against him or her which challenges the constitutionality or validity of any provision of this local law or which attempts to limit or question the applicability of such law, and such notification shall include a copy of the papers served upon him.

SECTION 22. DISPOSITION OF REVENUES. All revenues resulting from the imposition of the tax under this local law shall be paid into the treasury of the County and shall be credited to the General Fund of the County.

SECTION 23. SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this local law or the application thereof to any person or circumstances is held invalid, the remainder of this local law and the application of such provisions to other persons and circumstances shall not be affected thereby.

SECTION 24.

EFFECTIVE DATE. This local law shall take effect upon filing with the office of the Secretary of State of the State of New York.
