Legislators debate halting state land purchases Environmentalists blast proposals

By Jon Alexander denpubs@denpubs.com ALBANY — State legislators vowed this week to overturn Gov. David Paterson’s proposed reduction in the state Environmental Protection Fund, as nearly a dozen environmental advocates blasted the idea, while criticizing his associated proposal to freeze state land acquisitions for the next two years.

Faced with a pending $7.5 billion budget shortfall in fiscal year 2010-2011, Paterson has proposed slashing the unexpended balance in the Environmental Protection Fund to $143 million — a $79 million reduction from last year — while not spending any money at all for state land acquisition. The cash is to be moved into the state’s general fund.

Dozens of environmental advocates objecting to the proposals as they testified before a joint hearing of the state Senate and Assembly Environmental Conservation committees.

Adirondack Council Legislative Director Scott Lorey told legislators that stripping the EPF of its funds is not only bad environmental policy, but could also devastate local economies.

“There are many good reasons for protecting open space.

One example is that local governments receive financial assistance from state tax payments on forest preserve lands,” Lorey said.

Cheerful Crickets face funding crisis, Fundraisers planned

By Lindsay Yandon lindsay@denpubs.com NORTH CREEK — Cheerful Crickets Nursery School, operating out of Tannery Pond Community Center in North Creek has been offering pre-kindergarten classes to surrounding communities since the mid-seventies and is faced with the threat of closure in the coming months.

The nursery school is approximately $4,000 short in their budget needed to finish out the 2009-2010 school year. The parent board for the Cheerful Crickets has turned to fundraising and hopes to raise the needed money themselves.

“This program is too important to not make it through the year,” said Cricket parent Erwin Morris. “Serious fundraising seems like the most logical step to prevent closure.”

At one time, Cheerful Crickets drew students from Minerva, Newcomb, Indian Lake and other local school districts.

However, with the presence of pre-k programs in most of those schools now, numbers have shrank drastically at Cheerful Crickets.

Two years ago, both the three and four year old programs at Cheerful Crickets enrolled around 24 students. Today, there

Our Town to present “Moby Dick Rehearsed”

By Lindsay Yandon lindsay@denpubs.com NORTH CREEK — Our Town Theater Group will present Pendragon’s production “Moby Dick Rehearsed” on Friday, Feb. 19 at Tannery Pond Community Center.

One of the most famous first lines in American Literature, “Call me Ishmael…” is drawn from the well known Herman Melville novel, “Moby Dick”. Not so well known is the is “Moby Dick Rehearsed”, the play that turns brought the 800-page novel to the stage in play form.

Orson Welles released the play in 1955 and claims, "it is my finest work - in any form.”

Welles’ adaptation of Melville’s epic mythical novel, brings the fateful voyage of the Pequod to life using the power of acting and imaginative theatrics. Moby Dick Rehearsed is a tale of unforgettable adventure at sea.

Among the actors is local, Jordan Hornstein, who has both acted in and directed plays for Our Town Theatre Group. He plays the part of Starbucks, the first mate on the Pequod, for whom the popular coffee house is named.

“We are very excited to present this play to the local public,” said Becky Milner of Our Town Musical Theatre Group. “It’s an interesting twist on a classic story.”

The production begins at 7:30 p.m. and the doors will open at 7 p.m. Tickets are $15 for adults and $8 for students. For further information, please call Charlotte McLain at 251-2938.

Crickets From page 1 are only six students enrolled in each class.

With smaller numbers of students came the inevitable drop in tuition money that was generated each year and the possible need to raise tuition.

“Enrollment is down across the board and tuition just isn’t covering the costs of running the program anymore,” said Cheerful Crickets teacher Heather Olesheski.

Cheerful Crickets employs one full-time teacher and an assistant. Olesheski is assisted by her sister Ashleigh Ross. Both are local Johnsburg Central School graduates and are in their first year with the Crickets.

“Crickets is a tradition,” said Olesheski. “Many of my students have parents who were part of the program.”

Not only would the loss of the Crickets leave a hole in the community, it would also be detrimental to the local education system, according to Olesheski.

“Pre-k is an important step in a child's education,” she said. “The state requires more and more in Kindergarten and without this preparation, those teachers are always playing catch-up.”

The Cheerful Crickets will host an all-day coin drop on Feb. 13 at the four corners in North Creek as their first fundraiser. They will also hold a bake-sale at the Ski Bowl on Feb. 20. A 50/50 raffle will be drawn at that time and ticket are on sale now.

To purchase tickets or to receive more information on Cheerful Crickets Nursery School, contact board president Rachel DeGroat at 251-2202.

Adirondack Museum receives Newspaper Foundation support

Computer class hosted at Indian Lake Library

BLUE MOUNTAIN LAKE — The Adirondack Museum has received a grant in the amount of $4,253 from the New York Newspaper Foundation in support of microfilm services in the museum's research library.

According to Librarian Jerry Pepper, the funds will underwrite the partial cost of preserving twelve newspapers published in the Adirondack Park over the next two years.

The Adirondack Museum has long appreciated the unique role played by local newspapers in documenting every-day life in the Adirondacks, and has collected and microfilmed regional newspapers since 1970. The collection now contains 108 different regional newspaper titles in microfilm format, some dating from the early nineteenth century.

Since 2003 the museum has collaborated with the Northern New York Library Network to increase research access

Wacky

to its microfilmed newspapers and make them available for use on the Internet.

The project, called the Northern New York Historical Newspapers Project, has digitized and electronically indexed 1,693,000 individual pages from forty-four newspapers in the region. The initiative has proven to be a great asset to those interested in the region's unique history: over 12 million online searches of the site are conducted annually.

The Adirondack Museum is grateful for assistance with preparation and submission of the successful grant proposal from John Hammond, Director of the Northern New York Library Network, and Catherine Moore, Publisher of the Adirondack Daily Enterprise.

INDIAN LAKE — A Computers for Beginners class will be held at the Indian Lake Library on Wednesdays, starting Mar. 3 from 11 a.m. - 12:30 p.m. Space is limited, so please sign up for this free class at the desk or call the library at 648-5444.

The Long Lake Winter Olympics will begin on Feb. 16 at the Mt. Sabattis Recreation Center with sledding, skating, cross country skiing and snowshoe races. The event commences with a torch lighting ceremony at 1 p.m. and medal ceremonies will take place after the events.

The Cornelius Vanderbilt Whitney Long Lake Library and the Town of Long Lake will sponsor a Polymer Clay Workshop for children 10 and older on Feb. 17. Please call 6243825 to register. At 1 p.m. the Adirondack Lakes Center for the Arts will sponsor “Think Outside the Snowball” at Mt. Sabattis. Kids and adults are invited to build snow monsters, snow dogs or any kind of snow creation.

The week of festivities will feature an Hors D’Oeuvres Tour on Feb. 18. Starting at 5 p.m. participants travel to various restaurants to ample a special selection of appetizers. Judging cards will be handed out to guests to select a “People’s Choice” and “celebrity” judges will be sampling and voting on their selection for “Judges Choice”, using criteria including presentation, variety, innovation, impression of taste, and the overall experience ensuring every component in the dish enhances the overall culinary experience. The tour will visit in order, The Cellar, The Adirondack Hotel, The Owl’s Head Pub & Long Lake Diner, and Quackenbush’s Long View Lodge.

The festival will conclude with a free Hip Hop Dance workshop with Anton Briones will be offered on Feb. 19 from 1 - 4 p.m. at the Town Hall and the Winter Ice Dance will begin at 7 p.m. with DJ Glen LaBlanc.

Where the wild things are

H

enry David Thoreau wrote, “Our village life would stagnate if it were not for the unexplored forests and meadows which surround it. We need the tonic of wildness”. Thoreau, a naturalist, spent two years between 1845 and 1847 leading a simple life on the banks of Walden Pond in Concord, Mass. Thoreau lived alone, but he wasn’t lonely because he felt a kinship with his surroundings.

Our home is just six miles from North Creek, and four houses from Route 8. But, when the snow frosts the trees in white, it looks like we are in the middle of a wooded winter wonderland. The sunshine illumines the snow’s sparkles, turning the front lawn into a field of diamonds.

Because there are no street lights, the black night sky is dotted with myriad stars. And when the moon is full, it lights up the night, casting long shadows across the field.

In the morning deer tracks crisscross the field and lawn.

We usually don’t see the deer, but we know they have paid a visit.

A few weeks ago, when rain was pouring down, I was watching through the window the roiling, ice swollen waters of Mill Creek when I saw a gray fox cross our field to the woods.

The cover of my writing pad says, “Live Simple”, an illusive ideal in the 21st century. But, living here it is possible to experience the contrast between wild and tame, modern and ancient, complex and simple and that is what makes life in the North Country special.

We are fortunate that our populated towns and villages are surrounded by the forests of the Adirondack Park where the wild things are.

or those who do not like snow and cold, this January was a real treat. For those who enjoy Winter sports, however, or whose livelihood depends on significant snowfall, this was a very disappointing Jan. Not only was there very little snowfall, but a warm, heavy rain washed away 60% of what snow we did have.

The average high temperature was 28.3 degrees and the average low was 14.1 degrees, giving us an average temperature of 21.2 degrees - 2.9 degrees above normal. The warmest temperature of 48 degrees was recorded on Jan 25 and the coldest of -9 degrees was recorded on Jan. 30.

There were only three days with below zero readings compared to an average of seven. All three of those days were the last three days of the month.

Melted precipitation was below normal with only 2.39 inches being recorded - 0.7 inches below normal. There was measurable precipitation on only nine days with the greatest amount of 1.88 inches falling on Jan. 25. This heavy rain combined with the 48 degree temperature reading caused the snow to melt very fast. This caused the ice in the upper Hudson River to release on the morning of the Jan. 26, passing through Riparius about 7 a.m. There was no jamming here as it moved steadily down river for about two hours until it piled up below the bridge at the Glen.

Snowfall was also much below normal with only 7.3 inches being measured - 12.4 inches below normal. This was the fifth lowest amount in the last 30 years. The lowest amount of snow measured was three inches in 1992 and the largest amount was 43.4 inches in 1987. The last low snowfall year was in 2004 when only 6.2 inches fell. The largest daily snowfall this month was only 2.6 inches, which fell on Jan. 18.

The river reached its highest level of 6.66 inches on Jan. 27 and its lowest level of 3.05 inches on Jan. 13.

Happy Anniversary John and Joyce Denno.

Enjoy each and every day.

athan and Electa Eldridge had three sons that served in the war; sons Norman and Jabey were both killed on the same day (May 6, 1864) at the Battle of the Wilderness, son Nathan was captured by the enemy and spent 1864 in a Confederate Prison. Grandson Edmund (nephew to Jabey, not cousin – correction to last week’s column) was killed at the Battle of Fair Oaks Oct. 27, 1864; Grandson William enlisted in 1864 and, fortunately, survived the war. Norman, Jabey, Nathan and William are all buried at Union Cemetery in North Creek.

William H. Flansburgh and his wife Lydia (Demick) sent two sons off to war. Henry was wounded at Drewry’s Bluff May 16, 1864. His older brother James was killed four months later at the Battle of Chappins Farm Sept. 20, 1864.

1864 was a difficult year for many Johnsburg families.

Eldridge, William Born July 13, 1839, son of John Eldridge and Rexy (Ross).

William’s 1929 obituary indicates he served as a drummer boy in Sherman’s March to the Sea. Enlistment records, however, indicate that he enlisted Sept. 3, 1964 (he would have been 25) and that he served in the 175th NY Volunteer Infantry, which did not participate in Sherman’s March to the Sea, although the unit was stationed in Savannah in Jan. of 1865. More research needs to be done to resolve these questions. William’s eldest son, Lemon T. Eldridge, years later started the Eldridge General Store in Wevertown, now the Pearsall Realty building.

Flansburgh, Henry Born May 6, 1843, son of William H. Flansburgh and Lydia (Demick). Enlisted Aug. 22, 1862 in Johnsburg for three year as a private in Co. D in the 118th NY Volunteer Infantry. Wounded in his right arm at the Battle of Drewry’s Bluff May 16, 1864. Discharged Apr. 23, 1865.

Flansburgh, James D. Born Oct. 12, 1842, Henry’s older brother. Enlisted Aug. 11, 1862 in Co. D of the 188th NY Volunteer Infantry - 11 days before his brother Henry. Killed at Chappins Farm, Sept. 20, 1864 - 4 months after his brother had been wounded.

FEEDBACK

Gather your coupons … and multi-stack!

L

ast week, I introduced you to the concept of multi-stacking, a term I use to refer to any deal at the grocery store that involves applying multiple discounts to the purchase of the same items. Through multi-stacking, shoppers can enjoy even greater savings at the register each week, leveraging the power of store coupons, manufacturer coupons and additional sales or special promotions being held at the store.

My favorite deals are “money-back” supermarket sales, in which part of what you pay for your items is returned to you at checkout in the form of a Catalina coupon good for money off your next purchase. One of the stores I shop at recently had a “Spend $30, get $15 back” sale on a variety of items. I get very excited when I see these sales, because $30 is the total before coupons are factored in — precoupon, I call it.

This particular deal included a variety of cereals. All of them were priced at $2 a box. By buying 15 boxes I could reach the $30 spending mark and qualify for the special sale.

Now, right away, I suspect a few of my readers may be snickering a bit. Fifteen boxes of cereal? In one shopping trip? You bet! At my store, these great, high-level moneyback sales tend to come around only once every few months or so. When they do, it’s a great opportunity to stock up on the cheap. Cereal is an excellent item to add to your grocery stockpile at home. It typically doesn’t outdate for 11 months or more. And when you buy more, you save more.

I always take advantage of these sales when they come along. And I can’t remember a time when I paid more than a quarter a box for a name-brand cereal. Really. That’s actually the high end of what I’ll pay. I typically pay much less than that for cereal, as you’ll see during my story of this $30/$15 sale.

As I entered the cereal aisle, I was on the lookout for instore coupons. It’s always a good idea to scan for coupons that may be in dispensers or on the shelves of your supermarket. When I see coupons for products I like I always take a few, because I will have those coupons on hand next time

Which columns do you like to read?

Have a suggestion for a new article or column?

a sale comes around. Sometimes, the coupon you need to sweeten a deal is hanging right in front of you on the shelf. Keep your eyes open!

That was the case with my cereal buy. As I added 15 boxes to my cart, I spied a tear pad of $1 coupons for the cereal hanging on the shelf right under the boxes. So, I took 15 of them. I never clean out a store of coupons; there are typically more than a hundred coupons on a tear pad. Don’t be afraid to take what you will use! Remember, coupons are placed there in the hope you will use them and try the product.

By Jill Cataldo I headed to the register with my 15 boxes of $2 cereal and 15 $1 coupons. The cashier scanned my cereal and the register total came to $30. I handed the cashier my $1 coupons; after they were redeemed, my bill was $15.

I paid $15 … and I received $15 back in Catalina coupons good for my next shopping trip. So, I got back the same amount of money I spent on the cereal. My 15 boxes of cereal are, essentially, free.

I’ve stressed this point in previous columns but I can’t say it often enough: shoppers must think of coupons as cash.

They are essentially a form of cash, for shoppers and for the stores where we do business. When a supermarket has a sale like a “Spend $30, get $15 back,” shoppers still spend $30 on the items. My $1 coupons “paid” for $15 of my $30 spending and the store will get that $15 back from the manufacturer when it redeems the coupons. The $15 in Catalina coupons that I received function just like cash in the store.

They’re good for anything I want to buy on my next shopping trip. So, I view this as having exchanged one form of cash for another … but I’m still holding the $15 in my hand that I just paid for the cereal. It’s just in the form of a coupon now. And you know how much I love coupons! © CTW Features Jill Cataldo, a coupon workshop instructor, writer and mother of three, never passes up a good deal.

To the News Enterprise: The Adirondack Park Agency in conjunction with the Nature Conservancy, the Adirondack Mountain Club, Citizens to Protect the Adirondacks, Earth First, Adirondack Council and other's goal is to rid the Adirondacks of man and his property.

What the APA has done financially and mentally to so many private landowners is beyond comprehension.

LeRoy Douglas of Black Brook spent a small fortune to save his land from the APA's clutches, as did John Mayes, also of Black Brook. Thanks to Attorney Matt Norfolk of Lake Placid, Howard Aubin, the councilman of Black Brook revealed collusion with the APA and Nature Conservancy. The APA then dropped the case and said they found no violations after years of absolute torture and attorney fees.

I quote the first APA Commissioner, Whitman Daniels, 1971, on the APA's intention to, "Protect the environment while aid-

ing the economy in the Adirondacks." The APA has strayed way too far from this concept since 1971. The Adirondack Park Agency is NOT worth saving.

The APA only protects their own. Ann Labistille, a former member of the APA, built a cabin in the park with no permit to do so.

When this was reported to her agency, the APA convened and gave her an "after the fact" permit; end of story. Also, in recent years, seven members and employees of the APA Headquarters in Ray Brook caught with state-owned computers watching and displaying pornography during Governor Pataki's watch. These seven people were never fined, suspended or fired but only lost two days vacation pay. The APA protects their own.

The horror stories go on and on.

Little, GOP help kill ethics bill override

We offer the finest creative and unique drawing and drafting services in the Adirondacks

By Jon Alexander denpubs@denpubs.com

Take the next step & call Eric & Eric today!

New York ENERGY STAR® Homes use less energy, save money and help protect the environment

ALBANY — State Senator Betty Little and most of her Republican colleagues stood behind Gov. David Paterson Monday and effectively killed the Democratic Senate majority’s attempt to override last week’s veto of the controversial ethics reform bill.

A two-thirds majority is required to override a gubernatorial veto — and with only 35 votes in favor, the senate Democratic leadership fell seven votes short of achieving its goal.

Little, who originally voted for the bill’s passage two-weeks ago, said Monday she believes that there is some good in the now dead-ethics bill, but said it wasn’t as stringent or effective as it needed to be.

“Since its initial passage two weeks ago, there has been universal agreement that it doesn’t go far enough. I’ve never seen legislation so widely, yet so unenthusiastically, supported by lawmakers,” Little said. “Voters are hungry for something transformative, not half of a loaf of halfbaked reform.”

An overwhelming 31 of 32 Democrats supported the override joined by Republicans Roy McDonald, Hugh Farley, Frank Padavan and Joseph Robach.

Ruben Diaz was the only Democrat to support Paterson’s veto.

And almost immediately after the earlyevening vote, Majority Conference Leader John Sampson hammered the minority party and its support of the governor.

“For the second time in six months, Senate Republicans have killed ethics reform in Albany,” Sampson said. “They have once again asked New Yorkers to do as I say and forget what I do, while

Cuts From page 1 worth said Paterson’s proposal to cut nearly 130 jobs between the state Department of Environmental Conservation, the Adirondack Park Agency and the state Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation will leave the state agencies unable to manage what they already own. The cuts, he said, represent a disproportionate burden on environmental programs.

“Across 24 state agencies and offices in the state, a total of 630 full-time jobs are being cut,” Woodworth said.

“Remember, over 130 are being cut from our environmental and park agencies.”

Democratic legislators, including Long Island Assemblyman Steven Engelbright vowed to restore the EPF funding and salvage the environmental programs.

He said state leaders needed

special interests have tightened their stranglehold on Albany.”

Paterson had promised to veto the legislation prior to its Jan. 20 passage. He called it “election year window dressing” because it did not create independent oversight commissions composed of non-legislators.

Republicans argued that with the state Senate in Democratic control, ethics commissions composed of legislators would be a breeding ground for anti-Republican witch-hunts.

The bill would have required greater disclosure of campaign donors with an aim to curb widespread pay-to-play politics.

Along with GOP legislators, Paterson hammered on what the legislation would have exempted from oversight, like a clause that would have exempted legislators, who are also attorneys, from divulging their incomes outside the Senate.

Senate Democrats argued that requiring the disclosure of such information violates the attorney-client privilege.

Paterson and his new GOP allies have promised to introduce new ethics legislation that closes the loopholes within the next few weeks.

And for Little, the death of the ethics bill presents an opportunity.

“Now that the override has been upheld, we have a chance to negotiate openly and in a bipartisan manner,” she said. “The manner in which this override attempt was rushed through today speaks volumes about a political process that isn’t known for expediency.”

The veto override breezed through the Assembly with little dissent.

As recent as last week, Senate Democrats were confident that they had the votes to successfully override the veto.

to reassure citizens a “positive future” existed for them in New York State.

“The last thing we need to do is have our parks become a big neon billboard that says New York is collapsing, run for your lives,” he said.

State Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation Commissioner Carol Ash told legislators that Paterson's proposed cuts would result in the closure of dozens of parks throughout the state.

And although legislators said that they are hoping to restore at least some of the EPF funding, they were less resolute in their opposition to the land acquisition moratorium.

According to DEC Commissioner Pete Grannis, the current EPF proposal would allow procuring state easements, but not outright fee acquisitions.

Local Government Review Board Executive Director Fred Monroe also testified before the joint committee.

Farber argued that inpark land acquisitions have been made hastily.

“We need to make sure that we have done sufficient planning, that we are confident that when we spend millions of dollars on land in the Adirondacks, it’s the right thing to do,” Farber said. “We have to know the economic impacts, the impacts on affordable housing.”

For Assemblywoman Teresa Sayward, the implications of continued state land acquisitions are clear.

“Our communities are struggling — Economic development is almost nothing other than tourism,” Sayward said. Sayward serves as ranking Republican on the Assembly Environmental Conservation Committee. “Unless you own the motel, hotel or store, you are making minimum wage and as a result, we are losing families.”

Democratic Assemblyman Kevin Cahill argued the Legislature isn’t always the enemy of Adirondack residents.

“The governor ’s decisions to offer a moratorium on land acquisition will prevent us from being able to acquire very fragile lands in other places across the state,” Cahill said. “While I sympathize with the plight of the North Country communities and recognize that this has been an ongoing struggle for many years, I think it is important to remember that there are friends here in the Legislature.”

Wrangling over Paterson’s proposed budget is expected to increase substantially in the coming weeks.

Judge decrees Hotel proposed for Schroon Lake APA must pay farm’s legal fees

By Fred Herbst

fred@denpubs.com

Sandy Lewis, co-owner of Lewis Family Farm, addresses the Essex County Board of supervisors Jan. 4.

By Matt Bosley matt@denpubs.com ELIZABETHTOWN — The Adirondack Park Agency will be required to pay at least some of the legal fees incurred by an Essex farmer who prevailed against them in court last summer, a judge ruled Feb. 3.

Acting Essex County State Supreme Court Judge Richard Meyer said the Lewis Family Farm, owned by Salim "Sandy" and Barbara Lewis, is entitled to counsel fees and other expenses arising from a legal battle with the agency regarding farmworker housing.

Meyer ordered a hearing, scheduled for Feb. 26, to determine just how much of the $208,000 sought by the farm is entitled for recovery under the Equal Access to Justice Act, which requires government agencies to pay legal fees of a prevailing party unless they can show they were “substantially justified” in their position.

According to Meyer, the APA was not “substantially justified” in its decision to assert jurisdiction over three modular homes built to house farmworkers on the 1,200-acre organic farm on the outskirts of Whallonsburg.

“In arriving at its administrative determination, now annulled, the APA went beyond the statutory language of its own definitions,” Meyer stated, echoing his November 2008 decision in favor of the farm, which was later unanimously affirmed by a mid-level appeals court.

Meyer also said the APA went beyond their authority in an effort to “assert jurisdiction, impose a $50,000 civil penalty, and, incredibly, require Lewis Family Farm to waive ‘the right to challenge Agency jurisdiction and the review clocks otherwise applicable.’”

Much of the APA’s argument for justification hinged on the August 2007 decision of Acting Essex County Supreme Court Justice Kevin K. Ryan, who was first to hear the dispute between the APA and Lewis Family Farm and affirmed the APA’s authority to issue a determination.

Meyer said Ryan’s decision did not grant the APA jurisdiction over the houses themselves, but simply said the matter was “not ripe for judicial review” and allowed the agency to first determine for itself the extent of its jurisdiction.

Assistant Attorney General Loretta Simon, representing the APA, had also argued that the farm was ineligible for an award because its owners had the ability to pay the legal fees themselves. Meyer, however, called that assertion “irrelevant” because the applicable law makes no mention of the prevailing party’s financial well-being.

Meyer denied awarding the full amount sought by Lewis Family Farm, and ordered a Feb. 26 hearing to determine which of its expenses are eligible for reimbursement. The state has challenged more than $87,000 of the $208,000 requested.

“We’re pleased with the decision,” said Lewis, “It’s been a long time coming, but it’s just another step in the phase of this thing.”

Lewis called Meyer ’s decision “very strong and exceedingly well-written,” but noted how the state will have the opportunity to appeal both the Feb. 3 decision and whatever determination is made regarding the amount of the award.

APA Spokesman Keith McKeever said the agency is “dissapointed” with the decision and is reviewing it.

John. J. Privitera, council for Lewis Family Farm, called the decision “a victory for the Lewis Farm, farmers in the Champlain Valley and all small businesses in New York.”

“It’s good for the community because it sends a clear message,” Lewis added.

SCHROON LAKE — Construction of a new hotel in Schroon Lake could begin this year.

Talks are under way to bring a national chain to Route 9, south of the hamlet.

“This has been in the works since 2006,” said Roger Friedman, one of the investors. “It’s no secret we’ve been discussing a hotel. It’s needed badly in our community.”

Joining Friedman in the investment group, Schroon Revitalization Group, LLC- Schroon Lake Hospitality, are his brother, Joel, and David and Jane Kaufman. The Kaufmans live in Burlington, Vt., but are summer residents of Schroon.

Plans call for approximately 81 rooms and suites, meeting rooms, an indoor pool and fitness center. It’s uncertain if there will be a restaurant or other amenities.

Joel Friedman stressed plans won’t be finalized for the $8 million project until a franchise agreement is reached with a national chain.

“We are continuing to study the flags (chains) out there,” he said. “We’re looking for a mid-scale property appealing to both the highway traveler and the leisure-destination traveler.

“We’re still trying to figure out the bits and pieces that are the best fit for the community,” he added. “We don’t have a final plan yet.”

Roger Friedman noted several studies in the past 30 years have indicated the need for hotel rooms in Schroon. He pointed to a 1977 study that led to a failed attempt to bring a hotel-conference center to the former Camp Idlewood property. Another study, completed last year, also suggested the need for more lodging.

“Schroon Lake has no place to house people,” Roger Friedman said. “The last count showed there were 493 rooms in the town; 200 that are owned

by Word of Life that are only quasipublic. Of the 493 rooms on that list, 92 are no longer operating. In the last five years we’ve lost 90 rooms.”

Joel Friedman added many travelers prefer chain hotels because they know what to expect.

“We don’t have what the traveling public wants,” he said. “The majority are looking for chains because they know chains have minimum standards, they know what to expect from a name hotel.”

The Friedmans believe a new hotel will be an economic boost to the entire community.

“We need tourism dollars in Schroon Lake,” Roger Friedman said. “The entire community benefits when people visit. They eat out, go to movies, shop, use the marinas. I can’t stress the importance of tourism enough.”

Joel Friedman pointed out the project will also create jobs for local residents.

Once a franchise agreement is reached, the Friedmans expect the proj-

ect to move along quickly.

“In the Adirondacks there is no such thing as a slam dunk,” Roger Friedman said. “If it was a slam dunk it would have been done before, but I’m confident we’ll have success with this project.”

Joel Friedman said most hotel chains have basic designs for their properties.

Once a franchise agreement is in place architectural plans will be submitted to the town for a building permit.

Since the project is in the hamlet the Adirondack Park Agency is not involved.

“We’d like to start work in the spring or summer,” Joel Friedman said.

“We’re not certain at this point.”

Assisting the project is a $975,000 low-interest loan from the state’s Upstate Regional Blueprint Fund. It’s one of 15 projects funded that are designed to spark economic growth in regions with stymied development.

It was the only North Country project funded.

“My first priority as governor is putting New Yorkers back to work. These funds provide communities with the resources they need to attract development and create jobs,” said Gov. David Paterson. “These 15 Upstate Regional Blueprint projects are a sound investment in our Upstate communities and will help keep our entrepreneurs, workers and families in New York.”

Paterson called the hotel project a cornerstone in the revitalization of the town of Schroon.

Facing budget axe, visitors centers’ fate mulled

By Chris Morris denpubs@denpubs.com PAUL SMITHS — A diverse group of officials, activists and administrators packed a room at Paul Smith’s College Thursday to discuss the future of the Paul Smith’s Visitor Interpretive Center.

Governor David Paterson’s proposed 2010-2011 state budget calls for the closure of the Adirondack Park Agency’s two visitors interpretive centers – one is in Paul Smith’s, the other in Newcomb. The closures would eventually translate to a $583,000 annual savings for the state.

Last week, the APA’s Keith McKeever said the centers aren't considered part of the agency’s core mission.

But it was clear Thursday that area residents and organizations are willing to step in and keep the Paul Smith’s facility running.

Paul Smith’s College President John Mills facilitated the roundtable discussion, which was more of a brainstorming session than anything else.

Mills detailed the college’s role in relation to the center.

“The APA now oversees 1,398 acres of the property,” he said. “We have the rest. The APA pays the town one-third of the assessed value of the land, that’s the lease agreement.

The buildings that are there are not taxed, that will be a serious consideration going forward.”

The buildings at the VIC were maintained by the APA and funded through the agency’s budget. Under the lease agreement, the state may only use the facilities for purposes of public education. Mills also noted the buildings and land can only be sublet with college approval.

Mills said the college is in no financial position to operate or maintain the center. For one, liability insurance is far too costly and two, the college cannot afford to hire staff.

And that’s why Paul Smith’s College is asking for input on how best to maintain the facility as an educational facility for park residents and visitors alike.

Assemblywoman Janet Duprey said the chances of getting the VICs back into the budget are slim-to-none.

“It’s a decision that’s been made — and I don’t want to be negative, but I don’t see a reversal on it,” she said. “I can tell

you that we’ll do whatever we can to find different sources of revenue if that’s possible. But I’m looking for ideas to take back with me to Albany.”

Harrietstown Supervisor Larry Miller asked if municipalities in the region could help keep the VIC running as is.

“I know money is tight,” he said. “But what about the possibility of soliciting towns, villages and counties to see if they’d be interested and willing to help fund it?”

Miller noted that area communities benefit from the existence of the center.

Most of those in attendance agreed that the end of the VICs’ relationship with the state provides a unique economic and educational opportunity for the region. Adirondack entrepreneur Brian McDonnell urged those in attendance to consider the financial benefits of expanding the center ’s role.

“We’ve had the pleasure of the state running the facility since it opened,” he said. “Now we have an opportunity: it can be a place that offers much more than what it has offered.”

He said the original concept of having the Center in Paul Smith’s was to bring more people to the area for both education and enjoyment — and to spend money in the local communities.

McDonnell noted that the facility’s potential has never been fully realized.

“I understand about the liability issue, but there are ways around that,” he said. “People come from all over the country and they want to learn more about the Adirondack Park.

We have to have something like the VIC open that serves as a library and also as a model for what the rest of the park represents.”

At the end of the meeting, board members from the Adirondack Park Institute said they would discuss the possibility of becoming the lead agency in steering future discussions regarding the centers.

Mills said Paul Smith’s College is committed to facilitating those discussions.

“We need to keep this going,” he said. “We need to keep hearing ideas from all sides, and this is a good first step.”

Study: New Yorkers are smoking less but gaining weight

By Chris Morris denpubs@denpubs.com ALBANY — A new study shows a dramatic drop-off in smoking rates among New Yorkers.

Unfortunately, that’s not necessarily translating to better health overall for residents of the state.

The study, released this week by the New England Journal of Medicine, also shows that obesity is on the rise.

American Cancer Society spokesman Chuck Reed said this week that smoking is down 20 percent since 1994, but obesity rates are up a whopping 48 percent. That, Reed said, wipes out any

gains made by the plunging tobacco rates The trends for tobacco use aren’t unique to New York. Nationally, the American Cancer Society has found that smoking is down over the last 15 years.

Reed says a good percentage of Americans aren’t aware of the direct link between obesity and cancer.

“One of the scary things that we found in this recent survey is that 50 percent of the people don’t know that there is direct correlation between obesity and cancer,” he said.

According to Reed, if all U.S. adults became nonsmokers of a normal weight

by 2020, the average life expectancy would increase by nearly four years.

The point, Reed says, is that simply quitting smoking isn’t enough if you want to be healthier.

“If you’re going quit smoking, which we encourage you to do, take it one step further and also maintain a healthy body weight,” he said. “Because that way, you’re making positive lifestyle choices and you can live longer and you can enjoy your life more”.

Mid-winter arrives in the North Country

I

n the North Country, mid-winter is usually defined by the middle weeks of February, when many local schools typically begin a traditional, mid-winter break.

Although it may be difficult for many local residents to believe, we have already passed the mid-point of the season and winter is actually on the wane.

It doesn’t seem possible, with snow on the ground, solid ice on the lakes and a below zero nip to the air, that winter is on the way out. Yet, on the calendar, spring arrives on March 20, only 35 days distant.

However, there remain a wealth of opportunities available for locals to get out and enjoy the winter season with a variety of classes, courses and events in the region that provide individuals the opportunity to learn or refine new outdoor skills.

I am always encouraged to learn of the numerous programs in the region that help to connect local children and their families to the pleasures and treasures of the Adirondacks.

Saranac Lake, which is now in its 113th year of hosting the longest-running, winter carnival in the nation, has a full schedule of events planned to get local folks outside.

The annual frying pan toss is always a crowd favorite.

SARANAC LAKE — During Barack Obama’s State of the Union speech last Wednesday night, President Barack Obama pledged to pour billions of dollars into the nation’s education system.

Just hours before the President’s address, however, state Gov. David Paterson proposed cuts to the State University system — $90 million worth.

SUNY Chancellor Nancy Zimpher says Paterson’s reductions carry major economic ramifications.

“People will see a change in quality,” she said. “And we can’t afford that academically — To say these cuts don’t have a profound impact would be wrong.”

Phillip Smith, president of United University Professions, testified before a joint legislative committee, stating that the SUNY system is already being forced to turn away thousands of qualified students.

Smith said Paterson’s cuts would eliminate about a quarter of SUNY’s total operating budget.

“Funding for SUNY, if this is allowed to go forward, would be 80 million dollars less than it was in 1990,” he said. “And yet we have 40,000 more students in our institution.”

Paterson has acknowledged the cuts are deep – but he’s also reiterated that he will not budge. The Governor has repeatedly stated that if legislators refuse to make the tough decisions, he’ll do it for them.

But Smith said the SUNY system is taking a disproportionate hit. According to his math, Paterson’s proposed cuts slash about $500 million from SUNY operations over the next two years.

“This would be a 25 percent cut to the budgets of all agencies combined,” Smith said. “It just begs the question: why is public higher education being targeted in this manner?”

Carol Brown, president of North Country Community College said that Paterson’s budget, if passed, would have a dramatic effect on the region. She said she was more optimistic than Smith, however. because of several other proposals being discussed by the state legislature.

Paterson has proposed to allow each individual SUNY school to set its own tuition and he also wants to let institutions enter into more public-private endeavors. Brown says that will also prompt colleges to become more fiscally creative.

“With the proposed prison closures and the recent shuttering of Pfizer, allowing an institution like North Country to work closely with private industry is going to be important, moving forward,” she said.

But Smith said allowing SUNY to set tuition on a school-byschool basis isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. He thinks it will force low-income students away from their schools of choice.

“The feedback that I got was that there wasn’t a lot of support for the Governor ’s plan,” Smith said. “I think that there’s going to be some difficulty in getting this through. And for SUNY’s sake, I hope that’s the case.”

Assemblywoman Janet Duprey agreed that reaction to Paterson’s SUNY tuition proposal has been mixed, but she thinks if the legislation is detailed correctly, it could work.

“Many of the administrators are enthused about it,” she said.

“There are some courses that are more expensive to operate and they could flex what they do and how many courses are offered and be able to increase their revenue accordingly so that those who are taking the less expensive courses are paying less.”

Duprey acknowledged the concern that Paterson’s proposal will shut out some students from some schools; but she said nothing is set in stone yet.

“We have to start thinking outside of the box,” Duprey said.

“I think this is going to be a good discussion — If it hurts out colleges, we don’t want to do it; but funding is being cut so we’re all being forced to look at alternative ways to fund what we do.”

Duprey will sit down with educators and lawmakers next week to discuss the details of Paterson’s cuts and the initiatives he’s offered to offset them.
