NORTH HUDSON Ñ Three weeks after the Essex County Board of Supervisors moved to reject a local businessmanÕ s bid for the former Frontier Town property, a once-popular theme park off the Northway, the stakes have been raised, counter offers have been made and legal teams are bracing for a fight.

At the county tax auction on April 30, Keeseville resident George Moore offered a bid of $49,500 for a cluster of four parcels adjacent to the property he already owns, a structure known as the A-Frame that he purchased at a previous sale.

But at a lawmaker meeting in Elizabethtown on May 12 to accept or deny each of the bids Ñ altogether, 139 bidders bid on 150 total parcels Ñ the board of supervisors moved to reject MooreÕ s bid in favor of a higher offer from the town of North Hudson, who offered $60,000 at the meeting (but did not, like Moore, attend the auction and engage in the bidding process).

His was the only bid that was outright rejected by the lawmakers.

North Hudson town supervisor Ronald Moore (no relation to George) told lawmakers at the meeting that discussions with county officials prior to the auction stipulated that CONTINUED ON PAGE 19

Joni Podres teams up with Moriah youth

By Keith Lobdell keith@denpubs.com MORIAH Ñ The members of the Moriah Youth Baseball/Softball majors division team had all worn the number 45 in the 2014 season.

Each player has that number, along with the word, Ò PODRES,Ó inscribed on the top left side of the front of their jerseys, the number worn by hometown legend and 1955 World Series MVP Johnny Podres.

Those new uniforms, along with the ones being worn by players from pre-kindergarten through the

sixth graders on the majors team, were purchased for the program by the widow of the late baseball pitcher and coach, Joni Podres. Ò I have always strived to keep his legacy alive and wanted these kids to know that he was born in this small town and these kids can do the same things he did with hard work,Ó Podres said after joining the members of the youth league in the Crown Point Memorial Day Parade May 26. Ò I want these kids to enjoy the uniforms,Ó she said. Ò Johnny would have loved this. I am overwhelmed by the kids that came out to the parade

Partners join to make cleanup day a success in Ticonderoga

keith@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA Ñ Residents, businesses and local organizations came together to make Ticonderoga a cleaner place.

While the official Community Cleanup Day was held May 17, Ticonderoga Supervisor Bill Grinnell said people were getting to work early. Ò The highway crew was busy picking up bags for two days before the event,Ó Grinnell said. Ò The people have really responded well. If we get all of the piles cleaned up, then we should be in good shape. On the first day, we had a lot of trash, and that is not counting the metal, recyclables or trees. Those were not even official days.”

The event was put on by a partnership that included the Ticonderoga Montcalm Street Partnership (TMSP), Ticonderoga Chamber of Commerce, Town of Ticonderoga, PRIDE of Ticonderoga, Ticonderoga Kiwanis Club, Carillion Garden Club, Ticonderoga Central School, Eagle Scouts, Girl Scouts of Southern Essex County, Mountain Lake Services and Silver Bay YMCA Leaders Club. Ò We want to put a fresh face on Downtown Ticonderoga and the community as a whole,Ó said John Bartlett, TMSP Promotions Committee Chairperson.

Cleanup Day activities will included sweeping, window washing, trash pick-up, refreshing of natural areas and the landscaping, painting, weed pulling and community projects.

Grinnell said the town had done clean up days in the past, and he was approached about the idea during his run for the office. Ò At a senior citizens meeting I was asked if we could do this again,Ó he said. Ò I am really pleased with the way people stepped up. It makes you feel good.Ó On Friday, May 16, Ticonderoga Area Chember of Commerce

Executive Director Matt Courtright said 100 students from fifth, eighth and 12th grades helps with the cleanup, while 35 volunteers from the community and area organizations and businesses helped the following day.

North Country Community College pins nurses in ceremony Graduates encouraged to take the next step

By Mauranda Stahl-Sorensen mauranda@denpubs.com

TICONDEROGA Ñ In a ceremony on May 13, 48 men and women took the stage at the Ticonderoga High School auditorium to make the transition from student to professional.

As a symbolic welcome into the profession the Ô pinning ceremonyÕ for the Ticonderoga campus has been taking place for over 20 years. First, with Licensed Practical Nurses and then eight years ago with Registered Nurses. Ò We love the process of pinning,Ó said Charles VanAnden, Interim Director of Nursing. Ò We are saying to the students, Ô now your a nurse itÕ s up to you to take the next stepÕ .Ó The two groups of graduates were given the opportunity to be pinned by a nurse of their choosing. Professors, mentors, parents and spouses took part in the ceremony pinning the graduates and welcoming them into the fold. Ò These students are dedicated,Ó said VanAnden. Ò The number of hours they put in and the hard work it takes to complete this program is amazing. Still yet some of them do this while working and raising families.Ó The Nursing program at North Country is a competitive program that often has a waiting list for admission. Often students from urban areas in New York seek out NCCC as a choice for their education due to the low cost of living and scholarships the school offers. In partnership with Elizabethtown Community Hospital, Glens Falls Hospital and Champlain Valley Physicians Center the college is able to offer hands on clinical learning instruction in addition to their classroom curriculum. Ò I never expected to be in upstate New York receiving a pin as a Registered Nurse,Ó said graduate Zachariah Simmons. Ò Here we are and it feels good. I canÕ t take all the credit, my family pushed me to make this dream come true and the friends I made in this program struggled with me through it. The prize is this day the day I can call myself and those I stand here with Ô nurseÕ .Ó The diversity of the class was noted by faculty at the ceremony. New high school graduates, adult learners, married couples, locals, international students and Veterans were all graduates of the programs. Ò It doesnÕ t stop here, keep learning, keep reaching,Ó said professor Selena Lemay-Kippel.

Going gray: non-profit nursing homes continue to wait for aid

By Pete DeMola

pete@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA Ñ ItÕ s been six months since the announcement that the Blue Line Group (BLG), a partnership of four regional not-for-profit nursing homes that was created to explore new models of elder care for the regionÕ s aging population, was slated to receive $7.1 million from the state to shore up their struggling bottom line.

Last December, officials from the facilities in the network, including Adirondack Tri-County in North Creek, Heritage Commons in Ticonderoga, Mercy Living Center in Tupper Lake and Uihlein Living Center in Lake Placid, said the monies would be used to fund essential supplies and daily operations that would keep the facilities afloat as they explored options for long-term sustainability.

While the first payments were scheduled to reach their accounts in late March, their accounts remain empty. Ò At this time, we have not received VAP monies,Ó said Charlie Miceli, Interim CEO of InterLakes in Ticonderoga. Ò It is our understanding that receipt of VAP monies should occur soon, this is good news.Ó Miceli, who is serving temporarily after Inter-Lakes CEO Chip Holmes stepped down in April for a position with a Tennessee-based healthcare consulting firm, said he expects the funds to be released within the next 30 days. Ò These will be used to sustain operations

that will keep us running to explore options for long-term sustainability,Ó he said, including shared services with the other homes in the network. Ò WeÕ re very excited about that. It takes time to adjudicate all those funds.Ó Asked about staffing changes and alterations to the facilityÕ s bed mix once the funds were received, Miceli said their priority was to Ò stay the course.Ó Ò Our goal is making sure we provide essential services for the community. As we go forward, thatÕ s all we can do.Ó GOING GRAY Miceli discussed the Adirondack Park Regional Assessment 2014 with a reporter, a report issued last month that painted the regionÕ s demographics situation as dire.

Administrators of the four homes in the BLG network cited the last five-year report as one catalyst in the groupÕ s formation.

Among the most striking findings in the 2014 report: • The median age in the Adirondack Park is eight years older than in the rest of the state and five years older than in the communities outside the ParkÕ s boundary in the same 12-county area.

• Population within the Blue Line is declining at a steadily increasing pace and the median age will increase by four years this decade alone to 51 (it was 31 in the early 1970s). By 2030, more than one-third of residents will be over the age of 60 and those under 30 will decline by

an average of 14 percent each decade until 2030.

While the population is growing gray, the land is growing greener: • Since 1972, state-owned and protected lands have grown by 50 percent to 3,392,000 acres. They now account for 45 percent of the Adirondack Park land area, while state-owned conservation easements in perpetuity account for another 13 percent of the Adirondack Park.

The state does pay taxes on these lands, but those taxes are far less than would be paid if the land were developed or contained structures.

MOVING FORWARD In the short-term, nursing home administrators said in December, the funds secured by the BLG will help address the fiscal distress their homes have endured following years of Medicaid reimbursements that fell short of the actual cost of care.

The bed mix in a typical facility is 80 percent Medicaid recipients, said Miceli. Ò From my perspective, everyone is working together to move forward,Ó he said. Ò The report is a common picture across the rural perspective across the United States.Ó Inter-Lakes made headlines in February when it announced that it was cutting 33 fulltime positions.

Holmes, MiceliÕ s predecessor, said the cuts were necessary for the facility’s long-term financial health. The health care group lost more than $3 million last fiscal year, he said, citing factors such as more outpatient care rather than inpatient care and continued cuts in reimburse-

ment programs.

“The cumulative financial impact of these factors has resulted in a significant drop in revenue,Ó Holmes told a reporter for Denton Publications. Ò Inter-Lakes lost over $3 million in FY 2013 and the trend is continuing. We have taken all other measures to address this shortfall and, now, very reluctantly, need to reduce staff.Ó Inter-Lakes Health includes Moses-Ludington Hospital, Heritage Commons Residential Health Care, Moses-Ludington Adult Care, Inter-Lakes Dental Clinic and Lord Howe Estates.

It employs 289 people and is TiconderogaÕ s second-largest employer.

Joe Riccio, the communications director for Adirondack Health, the umbrella organization for two additional homes in the BLG network, Uihlein Living Center and Mercy Living Center, expressed similar sentiments.

Asked by via email if the facilities plan on altering their bed mix and if the two facilities have eliminated any staffers, he said, Ò The Blue Line Group has not yet received the funds approved through the Vital Access Provider program. Once secured, these funds will help in the groupÕ s effort to protect the long-term viability of skilled nursing and elder care services within the Adirondack Park. The Blue Line Group is grateful for the support of Congressman Bill Owens and his efforts to facilitate release of the VAP award.Ó Phone calls to the other facility in the network, Adirondack Tri-County in North Creek, went unreturned by press time.

From left, Ticonderoga Supervisor Bill Grinnell presents Best Fourth in the North Committee Chair Debbie Barber and Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Matthew Courtright a $500 donation to the celebration from the Town’s Health Insurance Broker Burnham Financial. The annual celebration costs between $25,000 and $30,000 each year which includes the fireworks, live entertainment in the park, bands in the parade, and more. The majority of money needed to host the celebration is raised by a small group of people in addition to them planning the celebration. The Town of Ticonderoga does support the celebration with $5,000 but without many fundraisers throughout the year, dedicated sponsors, and community members making donations, Ticonderoga would not be able to host the Best Fourth In The North. The celebration will take place July 1-4 with fireworks, parade, live music, food, vendors, rides, games and more. In addition the committee is looking for local bands and musicians who would like to participate in the parade.

Supervisors: Accept the bid!

T

here is a right way to conduct business and a wrong way. The way in which the Essex County Board of Supervisors handled the bid from Keeseville businessman George Moore following the recent county tax auction was the wrong way.

For background, George Moore attended the April 30 county tax auction and in good faith bid $49,500 for a cluster of four parcels that once held the popular Frontier Town theme park in North Hudson. The theme park has sat vacant for years, slowly disappearing into the Adirondack wilderness, and taxes have not been paid on the four parcels since 2006.

Moore already owns the large A-frame structure at the entrance of the defunct park, for which taxes are fully paid, and his intent was to purchase the adjoining 88-acres for possible future development of a campground or summer camp.

What happened following the auction is what truly has us puzzled. During a May 12 committee meeting, county supervisors voted 17-0 to reject MooreÕ s bid and instead accept a $60,000 offer made on behalf of the town of North Hudson by Supervisor Ronald Moore.

Supervisor Moore said county officials had discussed not accepting a bid on the former theme park of less than $146,000, the amount of back taxes owed, and said the 88-acres has considerable value to his town Ñ possibly as a business park Ñ because the small community has virtually no private property available for development.

In our opinion, the supervisor should be commended for his forward thinking, but the sequence of events that led to his offer was completely flawed.

First, if the town were truly interested in the parcel, why not put a representative at the tax sale to bid alongside everyone else? Since the parcels had been seized by the county for back taxes, and therefore by default owned by county taxpayers, wouldnÕ t it be in the best interest of those taxpayers to receive as much as possible for the properties through competitive bidding?

Sure, county supervisors reserve the right to reject any bid. But in this case they then turned around and totally undermined the bidding process by okaying what, on the surface, appears to be an insider deal with North Hudson.

Supervisors owe it to the taxpayers and to bidders at future tax auctions to conduct these auctions in a fair and transparent manner, otherwise, it will affect how people bid at future auctions.

Secondly, other than a few conversations during previous meetings, we see no record of a minimum bid ever being posted on these parcels.

A cursory glance through the material provided

May 31, 2014

to bidders Ñ including George Moore Ñ shows no mention of a minimum bid. We presume this would be the basis of the lawsuit George is threatening Ñ one that supervisors would no doubt spend thousands more in taxpayer dollars defending.

And, even if this unpublished minimum bid truly does exist, the offer on the table from North Hudson comes nowhere near the $146,000 owed in back taxes.

At the same time, placing these parcels in municipal ownership would remove them from both the county and town tax rolls. As much as county supervisors love to bemoan raising taxes, it baffles us that they would want to remove properties with a full market value of $568,900 from the tax rolls.

Finally, Ronald Moore may have the best of intentions, but this property has proven to be an albatross for the private owners who have invested in it, which is why the county is in this pickle with back taxes in the first place. So, why should residents of the town and county believe it can suddenly be converted into the Silicon Valley of the North Country?

It is a super location with great ingress and egress to I-87, but there are a lot of similar locations in the Adirondacks that, like the former Wild West park, contain more tumble weeds than business growth. A look at the dozens of unoccupied industrial parks inside the Blue Line is testament to that.

Perhaps the residents of North Hudson should be given the opportunity to vote on the purchase prior to it taking place.

George Moore has been criticized by some for not developing the one Frontier Town parcel he owns and allowing it to fall further and further into disrepair. In his defense, however, he owned just a small piece of the pie and it now appears he is making an effort to restore the property to something that will benefit the town. We believe he should be given the opportunity to do so.

History has shown the odds of a successful businessman Ñ who pays his taxes, by the way Ñ redeveloping a parcel into an endeavor that will benefit the entire region are far greater than a government entity doing so.

In an effort to avoid litigation, George Moore has now offered $5,000 more for Frontier Town than North Hudson did. The board of supervisors is aligned to potentially vote on the matter during its June 3 regular board meeting.

It is time they clean up this ethical quandary, and accept the bid offered by George Moore. Ñ Denton Publications Editorial Board

Letters to the Editor

Keep part time teacher

High Peaks Hospice fundraiser

To the Times of Ti: I recently read an article in the Times of Ti regarding the Ticonderoga School budget. In the article it was noted an Advance Placement 11th Grade English Teacher would still be on part-time. This teacher was referred to by her last name only.

How tacky was that? Did the person doing the article not know the teacher had a first name?

My next question is, Ò Why is this Advance Placement English Teacher still going to be on half-time?Ó I am not the only one wondering this. I have had people ask me this question. I tell them to go to the Board of Education. I have noticed in my 80 odd years that people like to complain, but do nothing about the problem.

Again, I ask this question, Ò Why is this Advance Placement 11th Grade English Teacher still on half-time?Ó This person not only teaches the AP English course for college credit, she also teaches an English class to prepare all Juniors for the New York State Regents exam which they have to pass in June in order to graduate. This sounds like a huge responsibility placed on a half-time teacher. I have heard this is because of numbers.

Really? There is a full time 9th grade English Teacher and a full time 100th grade English Teacher. Do some of the 10th grade English Pupils just disappear over the summer before they go into 11th grade? I donÕ t think so. This half-time 11th grade Advance Placement English Teacher has had three large classes each year for the last two years. She does not have sufficient time to help students who need it. Consequently, the bulk of her work, all her correcting of papers and her planning are done at home on her own time. This teacher has been working hard in this half-time situation for the last two years with the promise of Ò you are slated for full-time when possible.Ó Now, the decision to keep this position on half-time for another year. Is this fair to the students? Is this fair to the teacher? I donÕ t think so.

I think it is time for the Board of Education to reconsider their decision to keep this a half-time position and fulfill that promise!

To the Times of Ti: Twenty-eight years ago High Peaks Hospice was founded in Saranac Lake offering a more holistic and patient driven approach to end of life care. In the ensuing years more than 6,500 individuals and their loved ones have benefitted from the programs at High Peaks Hospice & Palliative Care.

High Peaks HospiceÕ s ability to continue to serve those most vulnerable has always been made possible only through the generous financial support of the communities we serve. The most enduring Ð 22 years and counting - and successful fundraising effort continues to be High Peaks Hospice Radio Day. Radio Day has become a much anticipated event in the Tri-Lakes communities each June. I would like to encourage you all to join us on Tuesday, June 3rd for this yearÕ s High Peaks Hospice Radio Day. It promises, as always, to be a fun and exciting day of support and celebration. Local businesses have generously donated a wide variety of services, items – such as an Adirondack Chair – and gift certificates to area golf courses, restaurants and more, worth hundreds of dollars. These will be offered as incentives throughout the day for your pledges. This year’s big raffle item is an iPadAir. Please remember to tune in on June 3 between 6 a.m. and 8 p.m. to radio stations 105.5, 102.1 or 106.3 FM, 1240 or 920 AM, Time Warner cable channel 2 and 22 or go to nbz.com for a live stream.

Why is Radio Day so important? Hospice receives no state or federal government funding. Medicare and Medicaid reimbursements were cut in 2013 due to the federal Sequestration while the cost of end of life care continues to increase due to more complex end of life issues. In addition, care is provided to anyone, regardless of their ability to pay, including the uninsured. Consequently we turn to the communities we serve to help bridge the ever widening gap.

Ninety percent of us know when the final phase of their life has begun. Hospice is there to help. An individual’s final journey is not traveled alone Ð it affects their families, other loved ones and caregivers - all are part of the hospice Ò unit of care.Ó By focusing on the physical, emotional as well as spiritual needs of all involved, hospice brings dignity, acceptance and peace not only to the patient but also to their loved ones.

To accomplish this we are asking for your help. Your past financial

Flag protocol To the Times of Ti: With the parade season upon us, I would very much like to issue a reminder.

The proper protocols for the American Flag and the National Anthem are to rise to your feet, remove your hat or headgear, hold it over your heart and stand in reverence to these great icons of American Freedom.

All too often, we see the proud veteran struggle to rise and remove his hat in respect while those around him continue their conversations, leave headgear on and ignore the passing of the flag or the playing of our National Anthem.

Please remember that are hundreds of thousands of brave souls who are not here to celebrate parades and holidays because they stood up, stepped up and fought under the flag for our freedom.

When these brave soldiers are fighting on foreign soil, the flag is the symbol that energizes them and reminds them of those back home waiting for their return.

Please enjoy your parades, enjoy your cookouts and parties, but also, please remember where we are and who gave us this freedom Ð rise, show respect and honor those who have given that to us.

Richard Cutting Essex County Sheriff

North Hudson may again host gas station off Northway

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com NORTH HUDSON Ñ With more tourist opportunities soon to present themselves in the North Hudson area, it is the return of an old business that has Supervisor Ronald Moore excited for the future prospects of his small town.

Muhammad Ahmad, who operates the Sunoco Station off of Exit 28 of the Adirondack Northway in Schroon, has purchased the former gas station in North Hudson across from the former Frontier Town and plans to open it this summer. Ò The sooner would be better,Ó Ahmad said. Ò There are some things that have to be worked out, but I would like to get some of the summer business so hopefully we will be ready by the first or second week in July.” Ò There is some work that has to be done on the site, but Muhammad has always been very enthusiastic and he will make a go of it there,Ó Moore said. Ò It is a great location. ItÕ s really going to be a new beginning for the North Hudson economy and having the gas station is what can kick-start everything.Ó Moore said with the gas station, North Hudson could have more appeal to visitors who were coming in to utilize the proposed new trails that will be open to the public through state land acquisitions. Ò Once the Boreas Pond lands are open, you will get a snowmobile and horse trail that connects to Newcomb and lets people access trails

all the way to Long Lake and Inlet,Ó Moore said. Ò For people who want to stage multi-day events and need a base, having a gas station at the trailhead would be a great advantage for us.Ó Ahmad, who leases his Schroon store, agreed

the site is in a good location. Ò It is an opportunity to have my own gas station and I think it is a good opportunity for me,Ó he said. Ò We will keep both sites open and I feel it has big potential as a station and for the town.Ó

ABOVE: This former gas station located across from the former Frontier Town property may soon be resurrected as Schroon Lake Sunoco station operator Muhammad Ahmad has purchased the site and plans to open the store in July.

The renovated life of the Knapp Sr. Center

Times of Ti - 11

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com CROWN POINT Ñ The Town of Crown Point is bringing new life to a building that has been home to the Masonic Lodge and town senior center.

The Knapp Senior Center, located next to the town park, will now host the town courthouse, the senior center, an art gallery and more after being renovated. Ò We are still working on some spaces, but the whole area is quite nice now,Ó Supervisor Charles Harrington said. Ò We wanted to use the building as a multi-use facility and make it an asset for the town, and we have turned the corner. We see that we have a good asset for the town that has value.Ó The building was the home of the Crown Point Masonic Lodge, who still uses the second floor for meetings. Ò They were unable to keep up the maintenance so the town reached an agreement with them,Ó Harrington said. Ò We have used it as a senior center and other agencies have used it for meetings.Ó The renovations started because of a tree that hit the back of the building, causing damage and the need to repair. Ò Often, events like that are blessings in disguise,Ó Harrington said. Ò That was the initiator to get us to start talking about our needs for the justice court and other issues. We had some grants for courts and renovations and they all seemed to come together.Ó Harrington said the building will be open for community events, which can be scheduled through the town clerk. It will be used for the town yard sale as well as for a new venture with an area set up as an art gallery. Ò We were approached by people in town that wanted to open an art gallery,Ó he said. Ò There are a lot of artists in town and throughout the area that wanted to find a place to showcase their work.”

Ò I was very impressed by the number of kids that came up to get their picture taken with Joni and told her something they knew about Johnny.Ó Joni Podres joins members of the Moriah Youth League baseball and softball teams after the Crown Point Memorial Day Parade May 26. Podres, the wife of late Witherbee native and Major League Baseball star Johnny Podres, donated the funds for the new team uniforms.

Johnny and Joni Podres

John Joseph Podres was a pitcher for the Brooklyn and Los Angeles Dodgers, Detroit Tigers and San Diego Padres from 1951 to 1969. He finished his career with 148 wins and a 3.65

earned run average. Podres best regular season was an 18-5 campaign for the Dodgers in 1962, but it was his 1955 season, where he finished 9-10, which is his most famous, as he went 2-0 with a 1.00 ERA in the World Series, earning the Most Valuable Player award in defeating the cross-town rival New York Yankees in a game seven, complete game shutout. Podres is immortalized at the baseball hall of fame in Cooperstown, where a statue of him throwing a pitch to Dodger teammate and Hall of Fame catcher Roy Campanella.

After his playing career, Podres went on to be a pitching coach for the Minnesota Twins and Philadelphia Phillies, where he helped to develop another World Series hero in former Red Sox ace Curt Schilling.

Joni Taylor Podres was an accomplished athlete in her own right, performing as a member of the Shipstad and Johnson Ice Follies out of high school, making 22 stops across the country.

As a child, she trained under the direction of Gus Lussi. She met Johnny in Los Angeles, and after his playing career they returned to the North Country, and she has been helping with local skating clubs since.

Board to host public meeting

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com MORIAH Ñ Officials in the town of Moriah want to hear from their constituents.

Supervisor Tom Scozzafava announced a public comment meeting will be held Thursday, June 19, 7 p.m. at the Moriah Fire House.

Scozzafava said the meeting will be different from a regular, monthly town board meeting, where the main purpose of the gathering is to, Ò pay the bills.Ó Ò We have a regular meeting once a month and you try to cram so much stuff into it,Ó he said. Ò The primary function of the town

board meeting is for town business. ItÕ s pretty standard, and it gets boring sometimes. What we wanted is to have a more informal meeting where we can get there and hopefully have good discussion that comes from the people.Ó The meeting is planned to be a, Ò more informal,Ó meeting with the town board with the topics driven by the members of the community. Ò It is the publicsÕ opportunity to come and tell us the good, the bad and the ugly,Ó Scozzafava said. Ò It is not going to be a debate.

This is the opportunity to get feedback from the people who elected us and pay our salaries because we work for

Zumba benefit to be held

them.Ó If the meeting is productive, Scozzafava said the town board will continue to host meetings in each of the hamlets within the town, most likely on a monthly basis. Ò If we are not doing enough or we are doing too much in some areas, then we want to hear it and we will listen,Ó Scozzafava said.

To help lead discussion outside of meetings, Scozzafava said board member Tim Garrison has started a Facebook Page for town discussion (search Tim Garrison).

Any comments can also be made to the supervisor by emailing moriahsuper@nycap.rr.com.

Eighth grade Technology students at Moriah Central School recently created hydroponic systems. Ryan Munson and Keyanna Purinton proudly showed off their bean plants. The students reused two-liter plastic bottles and developed a wick system that that provides water and nutrients through capillary action, similar to how an oil lantern works. The project was part of the system diagram unit.

Now, Moore is offering $65,000.

“I’m 87 and I’ve been to a lot of auctions of all kinds,Ó Moore told the Valley News in a phone interview. Ò IÕ ve bought a lot of property over the years and I never saw one handled this way.Ó Ô VERY DISAPPOINTEDÕ Moore’s attorney, William Russell, confirmed that a counter offer was sent to County Attorney Dan Manning’s office and told the Valley News he was Ò very disappointedÓ in the boardÕ s decision and that his client would rather resolve the issue Ò in a practical wayÓ than through the courts. Ò If we canÕ t work it out, we will have to bring court action,Ó he said. Ò My client wants to give an opportunity to rectify this lack of notice,Ó referring to the decision that apparently caught Moore off guard after media reports surfaced following the supervisorsÕ decision.

Russell said accepting the $65,000 would immediately benefit the county: Ò County taxes are being affected by this as well as town taxes,Ó said Russell. Ò Taxpayers would be better off if this were put back on the rolls.Ó Essex County currently pays tax on the properties it has seized. No numbers were immediately available by the time this story went to

Manning confirmed on Friday, May 23 that his office is reviewing the options for moving forward and doubled down on defending the boardÕ s actions: Ò There was absolutely nothing improper or clandestine with the Board of SupervisorsÕ decision to reject Mr. MooreÕ s bid,Ó he said in a written statement. Ò This issue has been repeatedly discussed at numerous committee and full board meetings prior to the auction.Ó Manning explained the saleÕ s terms and conditions Ò basicallyÓ form the basis of the auction contract between the parties and were contained in the auction brochure, published on the website and given to and signed by each bidder. Ò All bidders were aware that any bid on any sale could be rejected by the board,Ó he said. Ò Mr. MooreÕ s bid was rejected for legitimate and good reasons after consideration of the bid price and other associated factors. It is unfair and disingenuous to suggest that there has been any impropriety.Ó It remains unclear what constitutes Ò other associated factors.Ó Owing to the holiday weekend, Manning could not be reached by the time this story went to print.

Get your tickets early, last yearÕ s barbecue was a sellout.

Tuesday, May 20 sought to explain the town boardÕ s decision.

Citing previous reports from the Valley News and the Press-Republican, Moore discussed his role on a county task force that was set up to discuss the property and reaffirmed the nowfamiliar argument that MooreÕ s bid of $49,500 was one-third of the back taxes owed on the property and the countyÕ s right to accept or deny all bids.

He emphasized that if the town managed to sell the property within five years, they would pay the county one-third of the proceeds above the $60,000 paid.

He also cited the concerns of his constituents: Ò For years, many of you have asked the [town] board to do something, anything, to bring business to town,Ó he wrote.

Echoing comments he previously made to the Valley News that some 90 percent of the North HudsonÕ s land is state-owned, and therefore prohibited from being developed, Moore said the town has Ò virtually no propertyÓ that a business could be developed other than the parcels at the center of the debate.

RECREATION HUB If the town lands the former theme park, a decision that is now uncertain after the Essex County Board of Supervisors voted to table the resolution on Tuesday, May 27, Moore said he plans on partnering with the Essex County Industrial Development Agency to try to market the property at a reasonable price to bring business to town, something he hopes will create jobs and give rise to the possibility of a small grocery or diner.

At a task force meeting earlier this year, the board threw out the option of IDA involvement,

citing the estimated two years that it would take to see the project through its completion as impractical.

In the interim period, said Moore in the letter, North Hudson would try their hand at developing some of the property for recreational use, including snowmobiling, horseback riding and biking, something that would help attract what he predicts will be an influx of tourists after the state acquires the Boreas Ponds tract, 22,000 acres formerly owned by Finch Pruyn, the Glens Falls-based paper company.

Moore also cited ongoing efforts by the Department of Conservation to construct a trail from Newcomb to North Hudson that will eventually tie to Indian Lake, Long Lake and Minerva. ÒW ith our location directly off the Northway, we will be the start of this major trail system,Ó he said, also floating the idea of a guide service and parking lot for snowmobiles and horseriding rigs. ÒY es, it will come off the tax rolls for a time, but we would hope that it would eventually return to the rolls with advantages, such as a business, that would far outweigh any early loss in taxes.Ó George Moore said while he is getting up in years and doesnÕ t yet have exact plans for what he would do with the parcels once they are finally combined, the separation of which he said has prohibited him from fully developing his holdings in the past (and have elicited complaints from critics), he is confident that his family — including Philip, owner of MooreÕ s Concrete Ñ are capable and will hatch a plan for the future. ÒT hey will take over for me, but IÕ m still very active. I canÕ t walk good or see much, but my mind stills works.Ó

Hebert, Snyder dominant at Section VII track and field meet

By Keith Lobdell

Trailing after the final exchange in the 4-by-100 relay race, Hebert flew down the track as the anchor leg, catching and passing SaranacÕ s anchor for the win. Ò I think that we had the lead coming into the transfer, but the LAKE PLACID — Perhaps the defining moment of Jay Heexchange was a little shaky,Ó third leg Skyler Gilbert said. Ò But bert’s impact on the Ticonderoga boys varsity track and field what else would you expect from Jay? He was able to make up team came in a relay event during the Section VII championships the ground and get to the line first.”

May 24. Ò I wasnÕ t expecting Hackett to take off as fast as he did,Ó front leg Marcus Moser said. Ò He pushed me and we were able to hand off at the same time. I was worried in the second leg but I saw we were gaining time. Once I saw Jay take off, I knew we were going to pull through.Ó Ò This is the group that I have run with and been right there with all season,Ó Hebert said.

Along with the relay win (the team clocked in at 44.8 seconds), Hebert scored wins in the 200 (21.8) and the 110-hurdles with a time of 14.3 seconds for the defending state champion.

Hebert said the regular season has led to what he hopes is the strongest part of the season. Ò This is the big part of the year and what we look for hopefully is to keep getting better,Ó Hebert said. Ò These next four weeks are the big ones.Ó It was almost a sweep for the Sentinels in the 100 hurdles, as Shawn Silliman finished second in 15.8 and Gilbert finished fourth, two-tenths behind third.

“It is a major confidence boost to have a meet like this,Ó Silliman said. Ò ItÕ s been a good season for us in the hurdles and running with someone like Jay, you canÕ t get that in too many places.Ó Overall, the Sentinels finished tied for third in the team competition with Plattsburgh High with 87 points, nine points behind Beekmantown but well behind champion Saranac, who scored 194 team points. The EKMW boys team finished with 34 points, good for sixth place.

In the girls meet, Halie Snyder of EKMW swept the sprint events at the Sectional meet, winning the 100 with a time of 12.4 seconds, the 200 in 24.7 and the 400 in 56.8. Ò The hard work has paid off, and I thank my coach for that,Ó Snyder said. Ò We have worked hard so I can be at my best and we can do well at states and that is what I am focused on.Ó Snyder said along with her goals, she is very happy with the season the Lady Emus had. Ò We won our little division, which is a great team accomplishment,Ó she said.

As for preparing for the state qualifiers Friday, May 30, at Beekmantown, Snyder said the key will be to, Ò keep running more hills.Ó The Lady Emus scored 49 points in finishing in fifth place, while Ticonderoga was in sixth place with 29 points. Lillith Ida finished third in the high jump with a mark of 4-8, while finishing seventh in the 100 hurdles in a time of 17.9 seconds.

ANNUAL DRINKING WATER QUALITY REPORT FOR 2013 Crown Point Water District Crown Point, New York (Public Water Supply ID#1500276 ) INTRODUCTION To comply with State and Federal regulations, we will be annually issuing a report describing the quality of your drinking water. The purpose of this report is to raise your understanding of drinking water and awareness of the need to protect our drinking water sources. This report provides an overview of last year's water quality. Included are details about where your water comes from, what it contains, and how it compares to State standards. If you have any questions about this report or concerning your drinking water, please contact Mr. Gary Allen, Crown Point Water and Sewer Superintendent at (518) 597-4350. If you want to learn more, please attend any of our regularly scheduled town board meetings. The meetings are held the first Thursday of every month at 7:00 p.m. in the Town Hall.

Where does our water come from?

In general, the sources of drinking water (both tap water and bottled water) include rivers, lakes, streams, ponds, reservoirs, springs, and wells. As water travels over the surface of the land or through the ground, it dissolves naturally-occurring minerals and in some cases radioactive material and can pick up substances resulting from the presence of animals or from human activities. Contaminants that may be present in source water include: microbial contaminants; inorganic contaminants; pesticides and herbicides; organic chemical contaminants; and radioactive contaminants. In order to ensure that tap water is safe to drink, the State and the EPA prescribe regulations which limit the amount of certain contaminants in water provided by public water systems.

The State Health Department's and the FDA's regulations establish limits for contaminants in bottled water which must provide the same protection for public health.

Our water is provided by two separate sources.

One water source is two wells located at the fish hatchery, approximately two miles west of Crown Point. The water is disinfected with sodium hypochlorite solution.

There is a well located at Pearl Street that was made inactive in 2010.

Storage for the system is provided by a 350,000 gallon covered concrete tank. The system serves approximately 995 individuals through 430 service connections.

Are there contaminants in our drinking water?

As the State regulations require, we routinely test your drinking water for numerous contaminants. These contaminants include: total coliform, turbidity, inorganic compounds, nitrate, nitrite, lead and copper, volatile organic compounds, total trihalomethanes, haloacetic acids, radiological and synthetic organic compounds. The table presented below depicts which compounds were detected in your drinking water.

The State allows us to test for some contaminants less than once per year because the concentrations of these contaminants do not change frequently. Some of our data, though representative, are more than one year old.

It should be noted that all drinking water, including bottled drinking water, may be reasonably expected to contain at least small amounts

taminants do not change frequently. Some of our data, though representative, are more than one year old.

It should be noted that all drinking water, including bottled drinking water, may be reasonably expected to contain at least small amounts of some contaminants.

The presence of contaminants does not necessarily indicate that water poses a health risk.

More information about contaminants and potential health effects can be obtained by calling the EPA's Safe Drinking Water Hotline (800-4264791) or the New York State Department Health at (518) 891-1800.

pathogens in drinking water than the general population.

Immunocompromised persons such as persons with cancer undergoing chemotherapy, persons who have undergone organ transplants, people with HIV/AIDS or other immune system disorders, some elderly, and infants can be particularly at risk from infections.

These people should seek advice from their health care provider about their drinking water. EPA/CDC guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by Cryptosporidium, Giardia and other microbial pathogens are available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline (800-426-4791).

Source Water Assessment Summary The NYS Dept. of Health has completed a source water assessment for this system based on available information.

The assessment includes an assigned susceptibility rating based on the risk posed by each possible source of contamination and how easily contaminants can move through the ground to the wells. The susceptibility rating is only a rough estimate of the potential for contamination of the source water and it does not mean that the water delivered to consumers is, or will become contaminated.

As mentioned earlier in this report, our water is derived from 3 drilled wells. The source water assessment has rated these wells as having an elevated susceptibility.

No significant sources of contamination were identified.

The wells draw water from an unconfined aquifer and overlying soils are not known to provide adequate protection from potential contamination.

Please note that our water supply is disinfected to ensure that the finished water delivered to your home meets the New York State's drinking water standards for microbiological contamination.

The health department will use this information to direct future source water protection activities. These may include water quality monitoring, resource management, planning, and education programs. A copy of the assessment, including a map of the assessment area, can be obtained by contacting us as noted below.

WHY SAVE WATER AND HOW TO AVOID WASTING IT? Although our system has an adequate amount of water to meet present and future demands, there are a number of reasons why it is important to conserve water: Saving water saves energy and some of the costs associated with both of these necessities of life; Saving water reduces the cost of energy required to pump water and the need to construct costly new wells, pumping systems and water towers; and Saving water lessens the strain on the water system during a dry spell or drought, helping to avoid severe water use restrictions so that essential fire fighting needs are met.

You can play a role in conserving water by becoming conscious of the amount of water your household is using, and by looking for ways to use less whenever you can. It is not hard to conserve water. Conservation tips include: Automatic dishwashers use 15 gallons for every cycle, regardless of how many dishes are loaded. So get a run for your money and load it to capacity.

Turn off the tap when brushing your teeth.

Check every faucet in your home for leaks. Just a slow drip can waste 15 to

loaded. So get a run for your money and load it to capacity.

Turn off the tap when brushing your teeth.

Check every faucet in your home for leaks. Just a slow drip can waste 15 to 20 gallons a day.

Fix it up and you can save almost 6,000 gallons per year.

Check your toilets for leaks by putting a few drops of food coloring in the tank, watch for a few minutes to see if the color shows up in the bowl. It is not uncommon to lose up to 100 gallons a day from one of these otherwise invisible toilet leaks.

Fix it and you save more than 30,000 gallons a year.

CLOSING Thank you for allowing us to continue to provide your family with quality drinking water this year. In order to maintain a safe and dependable water supply we sometimes need to make improvements that will benefit all of our customers. The costs of these improvements may be reflected in the rate structure. Rate adjustments may be necessary in order to address these improvements. We ask that all our customers help us protect our water sources, which are the heart of our community.

Please call our office if you have questions.
