stephen@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — Heidi LaFontaine just retired from IBM and wanted to save as much money as she could.

She heard about a free tax service through the Clinton County Office of the Aging.

“This is my first time getting my taxes done here,” she said. “So far I am glad. I am treated nicely.”

The Internal Revenue Service designated Jan. 27, 2012 as National Earned Income Tax Credit Awareness Day.

Supervisor reflects on his long political career

By Stephen Bartlett stephen@denpubs.com

Town of Plattsburgh Supervisor Bernie Bassett says making contacts is key to getting his constituents what they want.

PLATTSBURGH — As the economic crisis wreaked havoc across the country, Bernie Bassett gathered his department heads.

“I told them we were going through a storm and we’re going to have to trim and be conservative, but we were not going to stop and wait,” said the supervisor of the Town of Plattsburgh. “When all is said and done, we will be out ahead.

I’m really proud of what we’ve done.”

Jobs continue to be created within the Town of Plattsburgh, which works hard to provide services, Bas-

sett said.

“We just spent a lot of money on paving roads.”

Bassett spent a career in education, working as a teacher and retiring as a school administrator.

When he retired in July of 2004, he began his campaign for the Assembly.

“I really hadn’t made a decision to get into politics,” Bassett said. “I had friends help me to decide that was what I was going to do.”

The thought of it actually made him slightly uncomfortable.

“But I felt I could do it, though I didn’t know what I was getting into,” Bassett said. “But as of this CONTINUED ON PAGE 9

Fort Covington man charged with raping Plattsburgh State student

By Stephen Bartlett

stephen@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — A Fort Covington man has been charged with raping a Plattsburgh State student.

The State University of New York at Plattsburgh Police announced the arrest of Trevor J. Sisto.

Sisto was charged with first-degree rape, a class B felony.

The charges stem from an incident last fall in which a Plattsburgh State student was allegedly sexually assaulted in her residence hall while Sisto was visiting.

With the assistance of the New York State Police, University Police took Sisto into custody at his Fort Covington residence.

He was arraigned and is now being held at Clinton County Jail in lieu of $25,000 bail of $50,000 bond.

“Across the board, in our society, rape is

vastly underreported,” said University Police Chief Arlene Sabo. “University Police and the faculty and staff at SUNY Plattsburgh are working hard to encourage vic-

tims to report these crimes, and we want people to know that when they report such crimes, they are taken very seriously.”

Mardi Gras North parade to take place PLATTSBURGH — The 10th Annual Mardi Gras North fundraising event for BHSN to raise funds for their Young Children’s Mental Health Initiative, will be expanded this year to include a free kids and family event on Saturday, Feb. 11, from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. at the City Rec Center on the US Oval.

NYS Assemblywoman Janet Duprey, the 2012 Mardi Gras North Queen will lead the kids’ parade as Queen of the festivities. Duprey was chosen as Queen for her commitment to young children’s mental health.

Activities will including mask decorating, the bouncy house, activities provided by Guibord’s School of Dance, ZumbAtomic, Steve’s Contact Karate and the Imaginarium Children’s Museum.

Office for the Aging vital for area seniors stephen@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — The Office for the Aging tries to find answers for people, says Crystal Carter.

“People will call here for almost anything, and we try to find the answers,” said Carter, Director of the Clinton County Office for the Aging. “We make sure someone answers the phone and answers your question.”

The mission of the agency is to help people live independently as long as possible.

That is done through advocacy, information assistance and the use of sub-contractors.

One role of advocacy is writing letters of support for grants, such as to build senior housing.

“We meet with legislators about what we are doing and how it would affect them,” Carter said.

If it has anything to do with the older population, the Office for the Aging usually has input.

“Right now it is time for them to reauthorize the Older Americans act, and we provide input,” Carter said.

The Older Americans Act of 1965 was the first federal initiative focused on providing comprehensive services for the elderly.

It created the National Aging Network, state units on aging and similar agencies at the local level, such as the Office for the Aging.

The Network provides funding based on the percentage of an area’s population of 60 and older for nutrition and supportive home and community-based services.

Congress reauthorized the act in 2006, effective through 2011.

“Each local area has an Office for Aging,” Carter explained. “The Act has different titles in it for our programs.”

Through Information Assistance, the Office for the Aging offers NY Connects, which enables people to call in and get unbiased information on long-term health care.

“We do a lot of health insurance counseling here,” Carter said. “We make sure people are in the right health-insurance plan and tell them their options, but we do not sell insurance.”

People often contact the Office for the Aging for advice when they begin noticing differences in their loved ones.

The Office for the Aging works with an array of sub-contractors, including legal counseling, JCEO, YMCA, North Country Homes Services, Behavioral Health Services North and dietary assistance.

The agency provides case management, though not for those who are eligible for Medicaid.

“The case manager does a comprehensive in-home assessment,” Carter said. “If they need services, we refer them or authorize services through one of our sub-contractors.”

Those services include home delivered meals, assistance with power of attorney and much more.

“Case managers look at a lot of different things,” Carter said.

The Office for the Aging is vital, she said, because sometimes the needs of older people get lost in the shuffle. It is important to have a program that strictly focuses on seniors.

The Office for Aging services roughly 3,500 individuals yearly.

“It has gone up over the past five years with Baby Boomers and confusion with changes in Medicare,” Carter said.

“Information Assistance is what we focus on the most,” she continued. “When people have information and can make plans, they don’t necessarily need other services.”

Clinton County - If you’ve tried to sell your home yourself, you know that the minute you put the “For Sale by Owner” sign up, the phone will start to ring off the hook. Unfortunately, most calls aren’t from prospective buyers, but rather from every real estate agent in town who will start to hound you for your listing.

Like other “For Sale By Owners”, you will be subjected to a hundred sales pitches from agents who will tell you how great they are and how you can’t possibly sell your home by yourself. After all, without the proper information, selling a home isn’t easy. Perhaps you’ve had your home on the market for several months with no offers from qualified buyers. This can be a very frustrating time, and many homeowners have given up their dreams of selling their homes themselves.

Understand the symptoms of mental illness

I

t has been reported now in several media outlets that the level of prescribers for psychiatric patients is dangerously low.

The need far outweighs what is available for those suffering from mental illness.

What this basically boils down to is that patients are not adequately receiving the services they desperately need to maintain their mental health.

This has already resulted in many patients turning to the emergency room for medications, some of them then being checked into the mental health unit because their needs were not met and their mental health deteriorated.

Another sad aspect of all of this is the stigma of mental illness, a grave reality for many who are already suffering, their condition compounded by a society that often does not understand the symptoms they are witnessing.

It happens all too often with, for example, the clinically depressed. Loved ones, friends, colleagues, cannot understand why they cannot get out of bed and spend their days crying and in despair.

Individuals who do not understand this illness, often out of a desire to help, driven by fear though, will tell them to exercise, eat right, just get up and do something, not understanding why they are bed ridden and unable to muster the energy for what appears to them to be normal, every day and often simple tasks.

It happens to individuals with bipolar disorder, often after they have been swept away by mania and act out recklessly, impulsively and destructively. Those who witness the behaviors and who do not understand the illness, often treat the sufferer as though they were not succumbing to symptoms of their disease but willingly engaging in the behaviors that at times define their illness.

It is easy to see why there would be symptoms around mental illness. When people break their legs they are in casts and if they do not utilize their crutches they are likely to fall over and hurt themselves or someone else. But those around them understand that they have an injured leg, and that is why they cannot stand upright on their own.

If someone has a weak heart, that individual will require heart medication and that person's heart will not function prop-

erly, also an illness or ailment that is easy to understand, even though, like mental illness, it is not seen.

But mental illness is different, even though the irrational behaviors of the mentally ill make perfect sense as the brain controls actions and thoughts and if it is not functioning properly, then people are going to behave in ways that do not appear normal to society.

No one who is mentally ill asked for the illness, but it is the hand they were dealt and must live with.

An estimated 26.2 percent of Americans — more than 57 million people — age 18 and older suffer from a diagnosable mental disorder in a given year, according to the National Institute of Mental Health.

Mental disorders are the leading cause of disability in the United States.

In 2004, 32,439 people died by suicide in the United States. More than 90 percent of people who kill themselves have a diagnosable mental disorder.

Fewer than one-third of adults and onehalf of children with a diagnosable mental disorder receive mental health services in a given year.

Organizations such as Behavioral Health Services North are doing all they can to remedy the lack of prescribers in the area and ensure those suffering from mental illnesses receive the care they need. Until that happens, people suffering from a mental disorder are going to have to live with the extra burden that lack in care results in.

But the population as a whole can take a simple step that would relieve the burden caused by the stigma of mental illness by educating itself and providing the benefit of the doubt when coming across the possible symptoms of mental illness.

It seems no one would pick on or judge or avoid an individual who was displaying symptoms from heart disease. Then why would we do that to an individual displaying symptoms brought on by the brain not functioning properly?

Many of us do, but we shouldn't.

Do not let at-risk kids slip through the cracks M

would be bored and would not enjoy their high school experience as much, but they would make it through, most with flying colors.

The reason I bring this up is because budgets are extremely tight this year and most school districts have said they are going to have to make cuts, because state aid is inadequate and many taxpayers are beyond the breaking point. School officials will have no choice but to make some tough decisions, to include cuts to programs and layoffs.

And while I am grateful for the many non-mandated programs my daughter can choose from, there is a population of students I am more worried about: At-risk students.

There are non-mandated programs for these students too, such

y daughter will likely graduate with an advanced regents diplo-

ma.

She loves her independent art study and has also participated in various other non-mandated programs, such as music over the years.

These programs have not only enriched her educational experience, but have made it much more enjoyable for her.

But she would survive high school without them.

I am not saying they are not needed, and I surely do not want to see them cut, but my daughter, and many other students have the tools to make it through high school without these programs. Sure, they

Stephen Bartlett

From the Editor’s Desk as alternative education at Plattsburgh High School. But the difference is, many of the at-risk students would not make it through high school if not for the extra assistance they receive.

These kids are at risk of failing in school, dropping out and in some cases becoming part of a cycle of dysfunction that will forever oppress them and in the long run not only not benefit the system economically, but feed off it in terms of public assistance. These kids need programs such as alternative education, which I have seen first hand turn their lives around in school. They need these programs or they will not survive their high school experience.

So while I adore my daughter and am grateful she was able to take music and independent art study and many more enriching programs, I would implore school districts to preserve programs for at-risk students first.

I don't want any programs to be cut. I want the school districts to maintain them all. They are all valuable and needed and yield positive results.

But if they have to start picking and choosing which programs to cut, I would suggest saving programs with at-risk students as the absolute last choice.

A child may cry because he or she cannot take a specialized art course, but a few tears are nothing compared to an at-risk student who falls into a cycle of dysfunction because he or she lacked the support needed.

City and Town with Don Kasprzak and Bernie Bassett A

s usual, January was a busy month in City Hall. Many people believe that the winter months bring a slowdown in our responsibilities, however, this is simply not the case.

And, the weather posed challenges all month due to mild and cold temperatures with freezing rain and ice.

We began the month with the swearing in of Mark Rogers and John Niles as the newly appointed City Court Judge and Assistant City Court Judge, respectively. The Common Council finalized and voted on their 2012 budget. I listened to Governor Cuomo’s State of the State Address which gave insight to his priorities in 2012. I met with the Regional Director for the New York State Office of the Comptroller, John Laurant, to discuss city issues. The Eastern Snocross Event was held at the Crete Center. Although the weather was the coldest all year, it was well attended. Mike Perrotte and his staff did an outstanding job as did all the involved city departments.

As I do each semester, I met with Professor Tom Mandeville’s government

class to discuss and listen to the student questions and concerns. I always enjoy meeting with his classes over the years. Terry Meron and Jim Murray invited me to the opening of Legends which is their new restaurant at The Comfort Inn. I urge the public to visit and enjoy the surroundings there. I attended the deployment ceremony of the New York Army National Guard Company A 2nd Battalion 108th Infantry Regiment which was very emotional. Families and friends gathered to wish them well on their mission and Godspeed.

I continue to deal with the many personnel and constituent issues each month. They are very time consuming, however, very often we resolve a majority of the issues. We hope for a mild winter and spring as we move forward as it will help with our winter storm costs.

February will bring its usual challenges but we will be ready to handle things the best we can! Thanks!

don’t usually share a play by Play of my month’s activity but, to start the new year, I thought it might be good to give an overview of some of things that took place in January.

I had many, many committee and staff meetings and hundreds of email and snail mail communications that needed to be responded to. Preparing the agenda for two formal Board meetings and two work sessions each month also takes a number of hours. I met with our Regional Representative from the Comptroller’s Office and introduce our Agriculture and Markets Commissioner at a Chamber meeting where he discussed the Governor’s Executive Budget. I also met with representatives from Verizon to review our accounts and discuss fleet administration. There were meetings with our Election Commissioners to discuss the increasing cost of elections and how we might make changes to reduce that expense.

I met with the interim president of the IDA to discuss a new trail project, in the industrial park, off the Banker Road. The Town Historian and I had meetings to discuss the purchase and placement of banners in the Town to recognize the 200th year of the War of 1812.

We began the process to identify a consultant to help manage our Micro Enterprise Grant. I also met with our consulting engineer and Department Heads to brainstorm ideas for a Local Government

aldwin is a great cat that plays rough. He is a pretty lazy guy and we believe he would ONLY do well in a home that has no other cats, dogs or small children.

Bear is a small male who is pretty easy going and has made his way in the sea of black cats living at the shelter. Often going unnoticed, he would probably do best in a quieter home. He has tested negative for FeLV/FIV.

Shortly after arriving at the shelter, Charlene gave birth to two kittens. Unfortunately, the babies became very ill and had to be separated from her in order to be nursed back to health. We think this tiny mom is still barely more than a kitten herself. She has a great sense of humor and loves to play.

Clinton County schools to promote Strive Program First rural school to adopt program nationwide

By Katherine Clark

katherine@denpubs.com BEEKMANTOWN — Clinton County schools will pioneer a community learning program as the first rural school to participate.

Clinton County schools have taken the first steps to promote the Strive Program, a program designed to help students achieve academic goals with the help of community members.

“The program is about addressing a seamless education pipeline,” said John Jablonski, president of Clinton Community College.

The program aims to promote each student’s journey through the pipeline, beginning at birth and continuing through every level of education, starting with kindergarten, by preparing students to read, to

read to learn, and through high school to promote college preparedness or career establishment.

“We hope that the pipeline doesn’t have any leaks and that there are no students that are left behind and no students that drop out,” Jablonski said.

The Cincinnati-based, Strive Partnership, was first started by SUNY Chancellor, Nancy Zimpher while she was President of the University of Cincinnati. The program is focused on the success of every child, every step, from cradle to career. The program has been established in urban schools across the country, and Clinton County schools will be the first rural community to adopt the program.

Jablonski said CCC was working with SUNY Plattsburgh and other organizations trying to develop a program that would bridge members of the community with schools to help students at every level of education when they discovered the Strive Program.

Letters to the Editor North Country Hardship Fund gives thanks for help To The Burgh: The North Country Hardship Fund would like to thank all for coming out to support us Saturday night. The Cabin Fever Party was a huge success! Thank you, Panther Mountain Inn and Brant Lake Taxi for your generous hospitality. A special thank you to the bands: Willie Play-

“Essentially we were trying to reinvent the wheel when we realized the Strive Program, a program that has been established and exercised in many districts, was exactly what we were looking for,” Jablonski said.

Though the project is still in its infancy stage, Beekmantown Central School Superintendent Scott Amos said the Beekmantown Central School, Clinton Community College, Plattsburgh State, Peru Central School, North Country BOCES programs and area businesses such as Department of Labor, members of the Development Corporation, and members of the Chamber of Commerce will participate in the Strive Program.

“With the support of local businesses we hope to include internships and externships for students to gain work experience and get a feel for what avenue they would like to take in life,” Amos said.

The strive program in Clinton County is not just a group of educators, Jablonski said

Cardiothoracic surgeon to chair Go Red dinner PLATTSBURGH— The Plattsburgh Go Red for Women Dinner will be held Friday, Feb. 3, at 4 p.m., at the West Side Ballroom, 253 New York Road.

Anne Cahill, M.D., medical director of cardiothoracic surgery at CVPH, and the chair of the Go Red for Women dinner, will stress to North Country women how important it is to take care of their own heart health.

Cahill wants to empower the women of the North Country to take charge of their own health, and to educate physicians about

Thank you Sportline, Progressive Motor Sports, Don Bagwell and Erin Brothers from Lincoln Logs for the wonderful door prize donations. Once again we would like to thank everyone who came out to support the NCHF. Helping others is what it’s all about. Thank you ALL so much!

it is a public and private partnership that includes school leaders at all levels and includes business people.

“I think it represents a significant shift that it’s not just educators trying to come to grips with these issues,” Jablonski said. “It’s about representatives from other parts of the community that regard this as a positive community issue.”

Amos said the partners are currently searching for a project coordinator to begin the development of the program. The first step in the program is gaining community involvement, Amos said he thinks more and more organizations will join as the project goes on.

“I think kids will see many more adults who start working with them earlier in life and talk to them,” Amos said. “We will be converging together to say to the kids we are all here for you.”

New business features treasure of items ABC and R’s Showcase has low prices and often hard to find items

By Stephen Bartlett

stephen@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — A train set rests in the corner waiting to be played with.

A small red guitar leans against the wall, begging to be strummed.

On a shelf sits a blue glass collection, calling out for a home to decorate.

“We have a little bit of everything here,” said Brittney Besaw, owner and operator of ABC and R’s Showcase.

The new business is located at 28 Oak Street in the City of Plattsburgh. It is open Sunday through Thursday 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Friday and Saturday 9 a.m. to 8 p.m.

“This is the first time I ever owned a business,” said Besaw. “My parents and I had always talked about it and they helped me invest to start me off.”

She’s held a lot of jobs but always longed to do her own thing.

“My step dad does a lot with ebay, and we do ebay on consignment.”

Brittney Besaw at her new business in Plattsburgh, ABC and R’s Showcase, located at 28 Oak Street.

Besaw moves new items in and out of the business on a daily basis.

“It is never the same in here.”

She said customers appreciate her low prices. So do other business owners who sometimes come in to purchase an item only to resell it.

Besaw has an old tea pot she was selling for $30. She did some research and discovered it was worth $350.

Besaw feels accomplished after opening her own business.

“Every time we talked about me having my own business, I never saw it happening, and now it has happened.”

307 West Bay Plaza, Plattsburgh, NY 12901

She grew up watching her step-father buy and sell products, and eventually began to find value in items she never thought were worth anything.

At first, she was nervous to open the doors of ABC and R’s showcase, but after the first day she loosened up, and now it almost seems like an old hat.

“You get to know what you are doing quickly.”

The cozy shop sells an array of items, including, but not limited to movies, antiques, home decorations, jewelry, art, toys and radios.

“The prices are low, and there are new and used items,” Besaw said.

Opening up and running the shop has been time consuming to say the least.

“It takes a lot of thought,” Besaw said. “You have to have inventory and a place to attract customers.”

At first, she was unsure where to locate. Besaw scouted several locations and determined 28 Oak Street would work well.

The shop also does consignment for customers and she’s amazed at the variety of items that are brought in.

“There are many times where people say they have not been able to find something, and then they come in and it is here,” Besaw said. “Business has been very good.”

Besaw keeps a running list of items customers want that she might not have at the time. Once she acquires the items she immediately contacts the customer.

Roundtable aids with budget process PLATTSBURGH — The group did not gather to come to a consensus.

Nor was it formed to launch into an intense debate.

“We want to make sure at each table everybody has a fair chance to say your piece,” said Plattsburgh City School Superintendent James “Jake” Short. “We want to make sure one person doesn’t dominate over another.”

More than 60 people gathered on Jan. 25 at the Duken administrative building as part of the district’s Stakeholders’ Roundtable Budget Forum. The new outreach process was designed to provide school officials with insight into community sentiment as the school board navigates a challenging budget process.

School officials have had a tough time creating budgets for the past few years as state aid shrinks and expenses soar. Many districts have cut programs and laid off staff, and educators at some have done without raises to salvage their education programs.

This budget season is expected

to be one of the toughest yet as districts have depleted fund balance and will likely have no choice but to make further painful cuts.

Plattsburgh City Schools wants community input before the school board votes on a 2012-13 spending plan.

The Roundtable Budget Forum targeted a cross-section of the district’s varied constituents.

At the forum, participants were seated in small groups and asked to reflect on school data they had read. They were further asked to discuss a series of general questions that were intended to yield information about community wants and constraints.

“You are going to see a lot of common interests, and a lot of different points of view,” Short said during the event. “That is healthy.

“The board will have access to look at the information so they can have your thoughts and voices in their minds when they are making the decisions they are elected to do.”

Participants voiced an array of concerns, including salvaging non-

Bassett from page 1 date I don’t regret any of it.”

When the television shut off election night the race, which he lost, was tied.

Bassett ran for town council in 2005, stepped into office in 2006 and almost immediately found himself appointed supervisor when the previous individual in the position stepped down.

He ran for that office in 2006, won, and ran unopposed after that four-year term was up.

“No elected office should be a two-year term,” Bassett said. “You really never have time to get away from the race, and you need to be thinking about doing the job.

mandated programs for at-risk and gifted students, arts and music programs and ensuring class sizes are manageable.

Some also voiced concerns for taxpayers already stressed to the breaking point. Indeed, agencies such as the Joint Council for Economic Opportunity and Social Services have reported an increase in the number of people requesting services. Many of these individuals and families cannot afford tax increases.

“I wanted to see how Participants and school board members read the thoughts and ideas posted on the wall of those the process was going to who gathered for Plattsburgh City School’s Stakeholders’ Roundtable Budget Forum.

“A lot of people don’t understand what it is about and how it works,” he continued. “I don’t think I’ve worked as hard in my life.”

Unless there is a meeting or event, he is in the office from 8 to 5, meetings at least three nights a week and there are always weekend events.

“But it truly is a labor of love,” Bassett said. “You have to enjoy and believe in what you are doing.”

Being known is important, he said. The more contacts he has, the more he can do for his community.

“I immediately got involved in all levels of government,” Bassett said. “It is important to know people and build relationships.”

But his personal life pays the price and family life changes. It’s nearly impossible for Bassett to go somewhere without someone approaching him, and not everyone is

happy when they do.

“You do become the position, even at the grocery store.”

Many people, who saw him as one of the people when he ran for office, changed their attitude once he was elected.

He considers a short term and long term thinker.

He’s made decisions in town concerning consolidations that have irritated people in the short term, but in the long term are fiscally sound.

“Many days my mantra is to be firm, fair and consistent.”

His constituents need him to lead and make good decisions in the short term that will bring benefits in the long term.

“Everyone who has an elected office, hopefully wants to be re-elected,” Bassett said. “So they have to have the best interest of the public in mind.”

The coalition helped roughly 900 people in the three counties obtain the Earned Income Tax Credit.

“Last year alone in the three counties more than $1 million was given back to individuals for Earned Income Tax Credit,” Snow said. “That helps stimulate the economy and helps low income people with the needs they have.”

In all, the coalition assisted approximately 4,000 individuals with their taxes last year.

“That is a lot of tax returns,” Snow said.

“One new aspect this year is we have a free stand-in tax site at the Plattsburgh Public Library where you can do your taxes yourself.”

She stressed that all the services are free to those individuals who qualify for the service.
