Ti school faces $1.7 million budget deficit Public input wanted Feb. 15

By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — Ticonderoga Central School officials are asking residents for ideas as they face a $1.7 million budget deficit.

While the district expects to gain about $300,000 in state aid in the

2012-13 budget, it will lose nearly $1.7 million in “one shot” funding that was used in the current spending plan.

“We have some serious shortfalls” John McDonald, Ticonderoga school superintendent, said of the 2012-13 budget. “Unless we receives some sort of windfall from the state, we will have to make some very difficult decisions, some major cuts.”

Before making those cuts, the Ti

school board wants to hear from residents. A meeting has been scheduled Wednesday, Feb. 15, at 7 p.m. in the high school cafeteria to garner public comment.

“We want to know people’s thoughts and priorities,” McDonald said. “We want to know what’s important to them.”

McDonald stressed people should come to the meeting prepared to participate. There will be a short

Ticonderoga Middle School students are taught basics in ice fishing

By Katherine Clark katherine@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — Ticonderoga Middle School students were offered a chance to learn the basics of ice fishing and ice safety recently, skills organizers said they will be able to use for life.

Representatives of the Hague Fish and Game Club visited the Ticonderoga Middle School recently and taught students about ice fishing basics. The next day, the students were able to put their lessons to the test on the ice.

Members of the fish and game club and school faculty brought the students onto the ice by the Ticonderoga ferry landing. The students enjoyed the nice weather and put their lessons to work equipped with jig poles and ice fishing cleats.

“We’re in a prime area between Lake George and Champlain and ice fishing is a great sport to participate in,” John Sheehan, event organizer and member of the fish and game club, said.

The fish and game club combined with the Best Fourth in the North Committee to organize the event.

Professional fisherman Shawn Hayes taught a variety of safety lessons, including how to identify safe ice.

“They taught us that safe ice is clear and bad ice is cloudy with air bubbles,” sixth grader Riley Quigley said while fishing with his classmates.

Out on the ice, Hayes brought state-of-the-art Vexillar sonar equipment including a fish scout camera. Hayes said not only can the camera allow an angler to see fish under the ice but also underwater vegetation.

If snow happens to block sunlight and kill vegetation on the lake’s bottom, fish will move on to areas with more veg-

etation and higher oxygen levels, Hayes pointed out.

Lessons students learn from ice fishing could help them in areas of academics such as biology and history, Hayes said.

“Schools emphasize basketball and baseball and football, then the students get out into the real world and it’s not too often they can organize a game with friends,” Ticonderoga Justice Keith Dolbeck said as he stood with his granddaughter Sarah Bressett. “With fishing this is something they can do for a lifetime.”

Hayes said teaching children about the sport is important to expose today’s youth to the outdoors.

“People don’t realize we are loosing our access to fish and

gaming,” Hayes said. “These kids could be future lawmakers who fight for conservation or they could develop an interest in agriculture, fish hatchery, and that could lead to possible careers.”

Not only are there learning opportunities for children in fishing, but Sheehan said the experience he has had with his three sons while ice fishing has brought his family together.

“We’ve made memories we can always talk about as we get older and hopefully my sons can share with their kids,” Sheehan said.

Steve Ramant, president of the Hague Fish and Game Club, said he hopes the club can bring this opportunity to other schools in the area such as Putnam and Moriah.

TICONDEROGA — Ticonderoga High School’s music program has been selected to host the 2012 All-County Music Festival.

Top student musicians from high schools throughout the area will take part in the program Thursday, Feb. 16, at Ti High.

Performers will spend the entire day in Ticonderoga rehearsing with students from other schools under the direction of various music teachers. The day will conclude with a public concert at 7 p.m. in the school auditorium. Tickets are $2 a person and $10 for a family.

The women’s ensemble will be conducted by Willsboro music educator Jennifer Moore. The mixed chorus will be led by Helen Demong, a recent retiree from Saranac Lake.

Musicians who qualified for Area All-State are automatical-

ly accepted to this festival. Others are welcomed based on teacher recommendations.

The All-County Music Festival is sponsored by the Essex County Music Teachers Association.

The Ti High music program involves nearly 100 students in the chorus, band, Sentinel Big Band (jazz), Night Shadows make choir and Trebled Voices female choir. Many are in multiple groups.

The program is led by Nelson Shapiro, a former state teacher of the year, along with Michael Iturrino and Jolene Harrigan.

When Shapiro arrived in Ticonderoga 35 years ago there were nine girls in the chorus and 15 band members.

This holiday season Ti student musicians had four performances — the annual community Tiny Tim concert, the Kiwanis senior citizen holiday party, a visit to Heritage Commons nursing home and the annual school concert — in two weeks.

That flurry of activities capped four months of rehearsals. Students also held a fruit sale that will help finance a trip to see a Broadway play and a United Nations visit this spring.

Fort Ticonderoga contributions increase New program ups donations

By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — Despite a poor economy, Fort Ticonderoga saw an increase in contributions in 2011.

Buoyed by a new program, the Fort Ticonderoga Fund, donations to the 100-year-old fort and museum jumped 12 percent last year to $600,327. The number of donors also increased by 14 percent.

“We are especially grateful to the staff and the greater Ticonderoga community who contributed to Fort Ticonderoga last year,” said Sandy Morhouse, vice president of the Fort Ticonderoga Association and Fort Ticonderoga Fund co-chair. “Our donors responded generously in 2011 and increased their giving at a time when there is intensified competition for charitable dollars and the condition of the economy has challenged our supporters.”

The Fort Ticonderoga Association, a private non-profit organization that operates Fort Ticonderoga, established the Fort Ticonderoga Fund in 2011. It marked the first time the organization had a structured annual giving program. The 2011 Fort Ticonderoga Fund

“Trustee giving led the way, both in a total commitment which increased 15 percent in 2011, and by making pledges early in the drive, permitting us to announce a ‘nucleus fund’ over $300,000 at the fort’s midsummer gala in July,” he said.

The Fort Ticonderoga Fund included the “Fort-ifier” program, which used a committee of local volunteers and fort advocates to contact potential donors.

“This group made an important impact on the success of the campaign,” said Anne McDonald of Ticonderoga, cochair of the “Fort-ifier” committee. “Volunteers personally contacted over 100 prospects in the community and secured 87 commitments totaling $32,745.”

Fort Ticonderoga is a private not-for-profit historic site and museum. Accredited by the American Association of Museums, Fort Ticonderoga offers programs, historic interpretation, tours, demonstrations and exhibits throughout the year and will be open for daily visitation May 18 through Oct. 18, 2012.

Information on Fort Ticonderoga and a schedule of activities are available online at www.Fort-Ticonderoga.org or by calling 585-2821.

was co-chaired by Morhouse, a Ticonderoga resident, and Kitty Pell of Boston.

“While there were significant challenges to overcome in 2011, I am very pleased by Fort Ticonderoga’s results as they show that Fort Ticonderoga’s compelling mission is resonating with our supporters,” said Beth Hill, Fort Ticonderoga executive director. “In addition, site-specific and unique interpretive programs, the new internationally acclaimed Art of War exhibit, and a strong marketing strategic plan which highlighted the new America’s Fort brand, repositioned Fort Ticonderoga as a national must-see destination.”

Fort Ticonderoga attracted 70,378 visitors in 2011. Attendance was about the same was in 2010, Hill said.

“The results were achieved in the midst of expected challenges including a severe winter, significant flooding in the Lake Champlain region in the spring and a hurricane in the late summer which devastated the entire region,” Hill said.

“In spite of these challenges and a national downward visitation trend at historic sites, visitation to Fort Ticonderoga remained flat for 2011 at 70,378 visitors.”

Peter Paine, Fort Ticonderoga Association president, said the establishment of the Fort Ticonderoga Fund was an important step for the fort.

fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — Ticonderoga residents can now purchase trash disposal cards at the town transfer station on Saturdays.

The punch cards, required for garbage disposal, will be sold by station attendants as a convenience to customers.

They can only be purchased by check. Cash and credit cards will not be accepted at the trash transfer station on the Vineyard Road. Attendants will not handle cash.

The cards are sold at the town clerk’s office during normal business hours during the week. The town clerk’s office is closed on Saturday. Some town residents said that creates a hardship since they work during the week and can’t get to the clerk’s office to purchase trash cards.

The cards are available for $3, $5, $10 and $20.

Trash cards are also sold at some commercial locations in the town, but those businesses add a surcharge that makes the cards more expensive than if purchased directly from the town.

“We’re trying to make it as convenient as possible for our residents to buy trash cards and to use the transfer station,” said Tonya Thompson, town clerk.

Ticonderoga residents are charged to dispose of garbage by weight — 10 cents a pound. Once trash is weighed by a transfer station attendant, the appropriate amount is deducted from a punch card.

There is no charge for recycled materials such as newspapers, cardboard, glass, plastics and metal.

The Ticonderoga trash transfer station also accepts construction and demolition debris. That material is also weighed and charged. Attendants accept checks for C & D materials.

The station is open Tuesday through Saturday 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Broadband access critical to Adirondack life

N

ot long ago, having a high-speed data connection to the Internet was considered a luxury. But in recent years, broadband access is not just considered a convenience, it’s a foundation of modern life. For both adults and children, it’s virtually a necessity for work, commerce and education.

In many schools, children are expected to have broadband access at home. Students are instructed to receive assignments and check homework updates on interactive websites, and to communicate with their teachers off-hours via email.

College applications are now completed on websites. People applying for jobs or college admission are expected to submit resumes and information online.

Businesses need this connectivity to stay competitive and survive, whether it’s marketing to customers, dealing with suppliers, or securing sales.

Real estate agents in the Adirondacks and other resort areas report that people seeking to relocate want to know if Internet broadband access is available before they buy property. Hotel and inn proprietors are questioned whether their accommodations have broadband connections and Wi-Fi before vacationers book a room.

Routine banking functions are conducted over the Internet. Patients are increasingly expected to obtain medical test results and communicate with their doctors over the Internet.

However, most small communities in the Adirondacks don’t have broadband access, except for satellite service, which can be unreliable and expensive. DSL service in the region is limited. Many of our area residents have only dial-up service, which isn’t practical in the modern world.

Regardless of the accelerating trend nationally to have employees work from home, it just isn’t happening here. Instead, we’ve seen a steep decline in populations of towns in the core areas of the Adirondacks. The reason, many believe, is due to the lack of broadband access.

In 2009, the Adirondack Regional Assessment Project determined that broadband access in the region was quite limited. The study revealed that only 5 percent of Adirondack communities had widespread broadband access, and these were primarily the moneyed resort towns — or situated on the perimeter of the Adirondack Park.

This and other studies have indicated that lack of broadband is hampering businesses, curbing job growth, and throttling

tourism. Development of broadband infrastructure has been identified as critical for economic vitality in the Adirondacks.

While the sparse populations scattered over wide areas of the Adirondacks presents a challenge to providing broadband through conventional technologies, recent regulatory developments and technological advances offer hope.

A small-scale broadband project in the southern Adirondacks appears to offer a promising solution that might be applicable to vast areas of the Park.

In Thurman, an entrepreneur is working with the town government to bring fast, affordable broadband to the town’s 1,200 households. The access is based on broadcasting digital signals over the “white space” between television station signals on the radio-wave spectrum. The Internet connection through this technology is up to eight times faster than satellite. The system transmits signals from dozens of existing telephone poles throughout the rural town to small antennas at households.

The technology is promising, because it works over hilly terrain, and transmits through foliage, unlike other digital broadcast options.

We at Denton Publications hail the initiative.

Now, it’s time for action from all levels of government —to go beyond mere studies and jargon-filled proclamations. Our political leaders need to step forward and encourage such initiatives like the one under way in Thurman.

Our politicians should stop giving mere lip service to expansion of rural broadband and take action to develop policies that prompt competition, encouraging local start-ups to utilize various technologies for local broadband networks that fit the requirements of the local terrain and population. This may mean simply relaxing regulations or decreasing bureaucratic permit requirements, or it may mean aggressively pursuing grant funding.

Such action is important to our region’s economic health, as well as preserving the unique culture and lifestyle of the Adirondacks.

Letters to the Editor

Ti highway workers praised To the Times of Ti: It seems that there is a great deal of criticism of our Ticonderoga highway department. Someone is always wanting to set up a committee to check on them or is handing out some punishment for a minor infraction.

The local citizens have forgotten about the long hours put in by these men during all the snow we had last winter. We thought they did a great job keeping roads clear. Also, forgotten is all the work done during Hurricane Irene.

Does anyone realize there are only nine men to take care of the miles of roads in our community? This is not all they have to do.

There are a multitude of other tasks to be performed by them.

We wonder how these critical people would like to get a phone call at one or two o’clock in the morning on a cold and stormy night to go to work. They get up and go at this time with no idea when they will get back to their bed.

Some of these critical people should remember the old saying that goes something like this – “Walk ye in another’s moccasins for a mile before you judge.”

‘Best Fourth’ fund raising efforts begin Volunteers, funding sought

By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com

It’s months until Ticonderoga hosts its annual “Best Fourth in the North,” but planning and well under way. This year the organizing committee for the July 4th celebration has established a fund raising goal of $30,000.

seasonal residents, area visitors, businesses and organizations are greatly appreciated, Barber said.

“Every penny helps us in reaching our fund raising goals to make the Best Fourth in the North celebration possible every year.” said Starr Pinkowski, a committee member. “If you are able to assist the committee, your contributions would greatly be appreciated and valued.

“We are also working on new ways to recognize all those who contribute to the cele-

bration as well as reducing costs by getting services complimentary or at reduced rates,” she said.

The Best Fourth in the North committee needs more than money, though. It needs manpower.

The committee is in need of volunteers to help with fund raisers and to work the celebration as well as committee members for planning purposes. The committee is also always looking for new ways to work with area businesses and organizations to assist

in the celebration. Any individuals, businesses or organizations interested in helping can get information online at www.best4thinthenorth.com.

“If you are interested in being involved in any way please do not hesitate to contact the committee,” Barber said.

In 2012 the “Best Fourth in the North” celebration will be a four-day affair, July 1-4. A detailed schedule of events is now being planned.

TICONDEROGA — It’s months until Ticonderoga hosts its annual “Best Fourth in the North,” but planning and well under way.

So is fund raising. This year the organizing committee for the July 4th celebration has established a goal of $30,000.

“In 2011 the total cost was $26,000, which included fireworks, parade, bands for the parade, park entertainment, Ti Idol as well as necessities to make an event of this size possible,” said Debbie Barber, Best Fourth committee chairwoman. “For the 2012 celebration we are looking to continue to grow and expand and have set a goal of $30,000 for fund raising.

“The town of Ticonderoga does contribute monetarily to the celebration, which assists in defraying a portion of the fireworks cost and is greatly appreciated,” Barber added.

“We are working with new entertainers, past performers and all of our vendors to make the 2012 celebration successful. The Best Fourth in the North committee is dedicated to providing area residents and visitors with the best Fourth of July experience in the North Country.”

To meet its fund raising goals, the committee has scheduled a series of events.

There will be a pan fishing tournament Sunday, Feb. 12, at the Ticonderoga ferry landing. There will be a chicken barbecue March 2 at the Ti Knights of Columbus. The annual Ticonderoga High School alumni basketball tournament and spaghetti dinner will be held Saturday, March 31. Coins drops are scheduled June 23, June 24 and July 7.

There will also be several raffles throughout the year.

Ticonderoga • Times of Ti - 9

Ticonderoga from page 1 in 2012-13. That’s a 3.5 percent increase when exemptions are added in.

At the same time Ticonderoga has lost nearly $1.7 million that was available in 2011-12. Gone are $700,000 in state Excel aid, $310,000 in employee concessions, $300,000 in local fund balance, $180,000 in federal stimulus money and $87,000 from the employee retirement fund.

McDonald said employee concessions could be available again, but the issue must be negotiated with local unions. The local fund balance is no longer available; it was used in the current budget.

A budget advisory committee has met twice, but McDonald stressed no decisions have been made on possible spending cuts.

“We’re going to have to look at all non-mandated programs,” the superintendent said. “Athletics, extracurricular activities, academics, John McDonald transportation — we have to look at everything.”

A local school district can exceed the state tax cap with approval of 60 percent of local voters. McDonald doesn’t believe that’s realistic in Ticonderoga. Last year residents rejected the budget when it was first presented and passed it a second time by three votes.

12 - Times of Ti • Ticonderoga from page 1 proceeds will go toward the scholarship fund.

The annual Beste Scholarship dinner and awards ceremony will be held Saturday, Feb. 18, at 6 p.m. at the Hague fire house at the intersection of Route 8 and West Hague Road. The dinner of salad, beef bourguignon, seafood newburg, egg noodles, broccoli, bread, cookies, cream puffs, brownies, coffee, tea and iced beverages will be catered by the Silver Bay YMCA of the Adirondacks.

Tickets for the event are priced at $15 for adults.

The event will include the Rotary Club silent auction at 6 p.m., the scholarship presentation at 7 p.m. and a 50-50 raffle.

Since 1988 105 Hague students have received Beste Scholarships. the 2011 recipients are Taylor Denno, Jamie Patchett and Jessie Patchett.

The Hague Winter Weekend will get un-

der way on Friday, Feb. 17, with the Snow Queen Pageant at the Hague Community Center at 7 p.m. Contestants include Kaylee Coon, Kacey Fish, Caitlin Myers, Fallon Kennedy, Keila Jordan, Madison Fish and Delaney Reeves. The event will also feature raffles and a bake sale.

The annual Hague Fire Department breakfast will get things started on Saturday, Feb. 18, 7 to 11 a.m. The breakfast will be served at the fire house.

There will be winter-related games in the town park and snowmobile rides at a site to be determined on Saturday 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Refreshments will be available.

There will not be a Fred LaPann Memorial Road Race in 2012.

The 5-mile race had been held for more than a decade on Saturday as part of the annual Hague Winter Weekend.

“We haven’t had much of a turn out the last few years, so there won’t be a LaPann race this year,” Sal Santaniello, race director, said. “Maybe if we give it a rest and bring it back next year there will be a renewed interest.”

Santaniello said many members of the local running community are now older and spend their winters in the south, depleting the race field.

Also factoring into the decision is Santaniello’s health. The driving force behind the race, Santaniello recently had back surgery.

“I’m not giving up on it,” Santaniello stressed. “We’ll see what kind of interest we have next year.”

The Hague Winter Weekend will conclude on Sunday, Feb. 19.

There will be cross country skiing at Rogers Rock Campsite 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Registration for the annual Polar Bear Plunge will begin at 1 p.m. at the Trout House Village dock with the actual plunge at 2 p.m.

February 11, 2012

After-school from page 1 Operated by Adirondack Community Action Programs, Inc., the programs have offered children care and educational activities since December of 2000.

“The need for high quality after-school programs in our rural community is tremendous,” said Marjorie Zmijewski, program manager. “Too many children are unsupervised between the time school ends and parents get home from work.”

The ACAP after-school program currently serves 61 children from 46 families at Moriah Central School and 24 children from 16 families at Willsboro Central School.

Zmijewski explained the Office of Children and Family Services Advantage After School has lost its state funding.

As a result OCFS can no longer fund the local ACAP programs.

Zmijewski said $31,000 is needed to get the Moriah and Willsboro programs through the remained of the school year.

“We are looking for donations from business and the communities,” she said. “They can designate where the money goes, but we operate both sites as one program and don’t ask for the money to be designated to one or the other. We hope to raise enough to keep the program open till the beginning of June.”

Anyone who wants to contribute may send donations to ACAP, P.O. Box 848, Attention Marge Z (Zmijewski),Elizabethtown 12932.

“We are also asking everyone to advocate for after-school programs,” Zmijewski said. “Essex County lacks quality child care. There is just not enough child care to meet the need in the county. If programs close parents will have some tough choices make.”

People who would like more information can call Zmijewski at 873-3207 ext. 249 or Email margez@acapinc.org “Over the past 10 years the program has been a great help to working parents, providing a safe and healthy environ-

After-school programs in Moriah and Willsboro are at risk of closing. Funding for the two programs, which serve 85 elementary-age children, will end in April. Unless addition money is found, both sites will close. The ACAP after-school program currently serves 61 children from 46 families at Moriah Central School. ment for children after school, at little or no cost,” Zmijewski said.

Alan Jones, ACAP executive director/CEO, hopes to find funding for the program to continue.

“Our initial goal is to find funding to keep the program open until the end of the school year while we look into options for the future,” he said.

That future appears very uncertain for the Moriah and Willsboro after-school program.

“At this time we do not know the future of the program and are asking everyone to advocate for the need for afterschool programs,” Zmijewski said. “We are hopeful that OCFS (Office of Children and Family Services) will receive more funding, but in the meantime we feel the need for these programs is strong and will continue to look for ways to fund the program.”

Lance Snyder cheers on the Moriah Central School basketball team.

Mary Louise Meehan Sept. 23, 1937-Jan. 31, 2012 HAGUE — Mary Louise Meehan, 74, born on Sept. 23, 1937, at her family home in Hague, passed into the loving arms of her Savior on Tuesday, Jan. 31, 2012, at her same family home, surrounded by her beloved family and friends.

She was the daughter of the late Frank H. and Evelyn (Clark) Meehan.

For many years, Mary Louise worked as a LPN for Moses-Ludington Hospital in Ticonderoga after graduating from Albany School of Nursing.

She had a life-long love of all animals but held a special place in her heart for her dogs. She often could be seen driving around town with many of her dogs. She also had a great love of horses and participated in many holiday parades and local horse shows.

Mary Louise was kind, loving and willing to lend a hand to anyone that was in need. She will be fondly remembered by all that knew her.

Mary Louise was pre-deceased by her parents, Frank H. Meehan and Evelyn Clark Meehan, her sister, Dr. Dorothy Meehan Rosekrans, her brother, James Sherman Meehan, and her nephews, Richard Meehan and Stephen Rosekrans.

She is survived by her beloved brother, Norrell J. Meehan and his wife, Jeannette N. Meehan of Ticonderoga. She is also survived by many nieces and nephews, whom she dearly loved.

Arrangements are under the direction of the Wilcox & Regan Funeral Home of Ticonderoga. Services will be held on Saturday, Feb. 11, 2012. Visiting will be from 1 to 2 p.m. at the funeral home, with a funeral service to follow with Pastor Steve Smith leading the celebration.

A small gathering of family and friends will follow at 3 p.m. at the EMA in Ticonderoga.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations to the Westport Animal Shelter, Lake Shore Road, Westport, NY 12993 or the Hague Volunteer Emergency Squad, Hague, NY 12836, in her memory.

John W. Maxwell Oct. 24, 1919-Feb. 1, 2012 John W. Maxwell, 92 of Quaker Mountain Road, Wilmington, passed away Feb. 1, 2012, at Horace Nye Home where he had been a resident since September 2011.

He was born in Schenectady Oct. 24, 1919, the son of J. Walter Maxwell and Anna (Clum) Maxwell. He was the husband of Sidney (Leitch) Maxwell.

A funeral service will be held Saturday, Feb. 4, at 1 p.m. at St. Eustace Episcopal Church, Lake Placid.

Rev. David Ousley will officiate. Burial will be at Mountain View Cemetery in Upper Jay, in May.

DEC kept busy this season I t has been a busy season for the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation. In recent weeks, the department has released figures regarding hunting accidents that occurred during the recent Big Game Hunting Season. They have also developed two current wildlife management initiatives, involving cats and birds.

DEC announced the 2011 Big Game Hunting Season equaled the 2009 season as the safest hunting season ever recorded in New York. Although there were several fatalities during the 2011 season, a majority of these incidents involved injuries sustained as a result of tree-stand accidents, rather than hunter on hunter incidents.

Cats and Birds

Cats and birds are not typically a good mix, however, when it comes to DEC efforts, there is a good chance that each species will derive some useful benefits.

Although bobcats are not a common sight in the interior of the High Peaks region, the cautious cats maintain a viable presence in many other areas of the state, including the Champlain Valley, the Hudson River Valley and throughout the Catskill Mountains. I’ve never come across a bobcat in the park, but I have observed several while hunting deer in the Southern Tier.

Recently, the DEC announced a proposed five-year bobcat management plan. “The plan, once final, will guide the management of bobcat in New York State for the next five years, a wildlife species which continues to fascinate and intrigue both the hunting community and nature ob-

servers,” explained DEC Commissioner Joe Martens.

The draft management plan is available on the DEC website. The comment period on the draft plan runs through Feb. 16, 2012.

The public is invited to comment on DEC's proposed plan for guiding management of New York State's bobcat populations through the next five years. Comments may be submitted in writing through Feb. 16, 2012 to NYSDEC Bureau of Wildlife, Bobcat Management Plan, 625 Broadway, Albany, NY 12233-4754 or by email (type "Bobcat Plan" in the topic line).

Fool Hens of the Forest Spruce grouse, aka "fool hens" or “Adirondack Prairie Chickens” are one of the rarest birds in the Adirondacks.

They are renowned for an apparent lack of fear of humans. In my travels, I have often had to get out of my vehicle to chase them out of the road, so I could pass.

Roughly the size of a Ruffed Grouse, these timid birds measure about 15-17 inches in length, the male is black on the upper breast and throat, has a brown or blackish tail tipped with chestnut, white-tipped undertail, a finely

Marissa Titus scored 18 points to key the Crown Point attack. Alexis Holman and Julianne Glebus each had eight points for the winners.

Although spruce grouse were once a common fixture of the cut over forests of the Adirondacks in the late 1800's, the current populations are fragmented and sparse.

Many believe that a reduction and fragmentation of spruce-fir forests and the maturation of remnant stands is responsible for the steady decline of the species, which now number less than an estimated 400 birds.

Faced with a possible extinction of the species from the state, the NYSDEC developed a Spruce Grouse Recovery Team in 1992 to ensure the long term survival of spruce grouse populations and their associated boreal forest communities in New York.

The Spruce Grouse Recovery Team has identified various management and research actions needed in order to protect, maintain and enhance spruce grouse populations including the protection of currently occupied sites.

Fortunately, the core area of viable Spruce Grouse populations is centered primarily on a number of large interconnected, parcels of private lands. Public education, combined with the elimination of threats and the enhancement key habitat areas are the steps necessary to ensure the survival of this strange and stately species.

State makes changes to Open Meetings Law Boards must provide public access to meeting material

By Andy Flynn andy@denpubs.com ALBANY — Starting Feb. 2, the New York state government began requiring boards to give the public access to their records scheduled for discussion at meetings.

Those packets members of the town board, school board or any public board have with them during the meeting, which are listed on the agenda, must now be made available for the public to review before or during the meetings.

“Members of the public have on many occasions complained that they cannot fully understand discussions among members of public bodies, even though the discussions occur in public,” states the New York Department of State Committee on Open Government. “For example, a board member might refer to the second paragraph of page 3 of a record without disclosing its content prior to the meeting. Although the public has the right to be present, the ability to under-

stand or contribute to the decision-making process may be minimal and frustrating.”

This change to the Open Meetings Law was made so “those interested in the work of public bodies should have the ability, within reasonable limitations, to see the records scheduled to be discussed during open meetings prior to the meetings.”

The change to the law centers around two types of records: 1) those that are required to be made available pursuant to the Freedom of Information Law (FOIL); 2) and proposed resolutions, law, rules, regulations, policies or amendments thereto.

When these records are scheduled to be discussed, they must be made available to the public “to the extent practicable, either prior to or at the meeting.”

In order to comply with the amendment, copies of records must be made available to the public prior to or at the meeting for a reasonable fee or by posting them online prior to the meeting.

The Committee on Open Government also defines which boards are required to put this material on their websites: “If the agency in which a public body functions (i.e., a state department, a county, city, town, village or school district) ‘maintains a regularly and routinely updated website and utilizes a high speed internet connection,’ the records described above that are scheduled to be discussed in public ‘shall be posted on the website to the extent practicable as determined by the agency…’

The state recommends that agencies put their materials online to save costs associated with requests made under FOIL.

Poachers named; men stone bird to death RAY BROOK — The late fall and early winter season saw poaching charges leveled all around the Department of Environmental Conservation's Region 5.

Rexford man Scott J. Hinchcliff, 41, Ballston Spa man Roger S. Petit, 44, and Ballston Spa man Henry J. Ostrander, 43, were all charged with possessing a loaded long gun in a motor vehicle Nov. 27 in Crown Point, a misdemeanor. Maximum penalties are $1,000 in fines and three months in jail.

In other DEC news, the two Essex men who attacked a Great Blue Heron Aug. 8 by throwing stones at the animal — which was euthanized due to its severe injuries — were sentenced for the incident.

Michael W. Martindale Jr., 29, of Jay was convicted Dec. 12 of illegally taking wildlife and taking a protected bird.

He was fined $502.50 by the Town of Jay Court.

Ryan Slater, 22, of Wilmington was convicted of torturing an animal under the Agriculture and Markets Law Oct. 17 in the Town of Jay Court. Slater was sentenced to 60 days in jail and was returned to state prison for four years for violating his status as a parolee.
