une is bustinÍ out all over! Last week it seemed like it might be time to get the snow thrower off the garden tractor and wrangle the mower deck back on, ignoring the dull blades and (as usual) nursing a few skinned knuckles in the process.

Remember that old wine ad? My motto is ñ I will mow no grass until itÍ s time.î Next year maybe IÍ ll wait a bit longer and bale it.

Though it doesnÍ t always feel like it, June has plenty to offer aside from yardwork. If youÍ re a golfer, donÍ t forget about the FiremenÍ s Golf Tournament at the Westport Country Club on Saturday, June 1 (where theyÍ re much better about mowing than yours truly). ThereÍ s still time for teams of four to sign up, and hole sponsorships are still available for this outstanding day of golf, which is a great way to support your volunteer Fire ' HSDUW P HQW&DOO-LP ) RUFLHUDW June 1 is also National Trails Day, so keep in mind the variety of activities on offer that day from Champlain Area Trails (CATS).

If youÍ re looking for a summer project, you might want to consider becoming a volunteer lake monitor for the Lake Champlain

Committee. They are seeking people to scout for blue-green algae, which is a commonly recurring type of bacteria that produces toxins which poison both people and pets. Go to lakechamplaincommitte.org for details. Bluegreen algae, or cyanobacteria, live in fresh and salt water, in moist soil, on rocks in Antarctica and saline pools and is thought to be the photosynthesizing organism which created the oxygen atmosphere we enjoy today. Volunteers are needed from mid-June to Labor Day. ThereÍ s a new insect pest starting to appear that greatly concerns fruit growers. Called the spotted wing drosophila, this relative of the common fruit fly originated in Asia and was first seen in California five years ago. Since then, itÍ s been steadily working its way across the country. The females lay eggs in soft summer fruit, like blueberries, raspberries and strawberries, leaving only a small sting mark thatÍ s hard to spot. The larvae growing inside the fruit chomp away, ruining it.

We also have a gorgeous litter of black, longhair ñ puffballî kittens who are ready to go! If you are looking for that purr-fect new family member, there is no time like the present to stop by the NCSPCA and see the many frisky felines we have available for adoption. One of our long-term resident kitties, demure little black-and-white April, who has lived at the shelter for just over one year now, is hoping that she will find her forever home before the end of May. ItÍ s practically raining cats at the NCSPCA... and one of them may be just the cat for you!

Our featured pet this week is Kit Kat, a black and white, tuxedo-patterned Domestic Shorthair-mix who is as sweet as chocolate.

Poor little Kit Kat was found cold, hungry and very sick. He is now feeling much better and ready to find a place he can call home. This happy little cat is roughly a year old and is

Men from Crown Point were at Gettysburg„ a monument stands to their unit there. More than 100 men from Crown Point, an amazing number from a community of its size, formed Company H of the 5th New York Cavalry under the command of John Hammond (A monument to Hammond stands in Crown PointÍ s Forrestdale Cemetery.). The unit distinguished itself throughout the Civil War. Crown Point men also fought in Adirondack Regiment, 118th N.Y., seeing action in many of the Civil WarÍ s bloodiest battles.

Two ways to manipulate To the Valley News: Taxes on land can be manipulated in two ways: manipulating rate or manipulating assessment. If the state puts a cap on the rates, silly governments may increase assessed value, thinking that they have cleverly got around the limit.

nput has been requested to make comments and submit documents from the public regarding annexing American Management Association(A.M.A.) in the village of Saranac Lake. This is my input.

I am neither for or against, but I am in favor of presenting the truth on the matter.

I feel that some information printed in the local news media for the past two years is not entirely accurate.

I strongly support A.M.A. I was a graduate of their first class. Have cured tuberculosis, lived near and been associated with The Trudeau Center for 60 years. We really like and appreciate this fine institution which has been operating successfully.

Why fix something which is not broken? Savings afforded A.M.A. sound good, but we fall on the back of already over burdened local taxpayers.

Currently the village of Saranac, Town of Harrietstown and Town of St. Armand do not provide basic services to millions of dollars worth of real estate which is already approved, built, and being taxed in the village.

I predict that the village will have serious legal problems to annex the 65 acres of A.M.A. land, and accept the dedication of the roads and streets which services this property. I say that because of what Clyde Rabideau told P HLQDO HW W HUGDW HG-DQ 2012, when I asked the village (and town) to accept streets, in fully approved, developed, heavily taxed sub divisions with upscale homes, which receives virtually no services from the village or the towns.

Time for action To the Valley News: The State of New York must now decide on the best use of W KH P LOHVW UHW FK RI UDLOFRUULGRUW KDWFRQQHFW V 2 OG ) RUJ HDQG Lake Placid. Should railroad service be restored, as ANCA and its chairman Steve Erman consistently proclaim? Or should the underutilized rail bed be converted into a recreational trail for bikers, runners, walkers, nature lovers and snowmobilers?

The cost to taxpayers is estimated by the state Department of 7UDQVSRUW DW LRQW R EH P LOOLRQ LQW RGD\ ¯ VGROODUV IRUUHVW RULQJ railroad service through the sparsely populated Adirondacks.

And this price tag does not even include the very substantial ongoing costs for updating and maintaining the rail infrastructure.

Viewpoint Adirondack history of the Saranac Lakes area. The first acquisition was 16 acres to the Paul Smith Guides for Dr. TrudeauÍ s Adirondack Cottage Sanatorium, now the A.M.A. property.

My interest commenced about 60 years ago as an officer in the newly reorganized Saranac Lake Chamber of Commerce, by the Lions Club, when we tried to establish a college there, DQGSHDNHGLQ Z KHQDYLFH president of A.M.A. requested my opinions to right size their Saranac Lake plant. I made an extensive study and prepared D SDJ HERRNRI LQIRUP DW LRQ about the A.M.A. complex.

A copy has been made part of the annexing record, and furnished to the village, library, Enterprise and other places.

This study is a must read for all people involved in making a decision on the annexation.

I also have heavy legal reading from the Internet, some against village interests, and some incomplete.

Agreement, 21 pages „ EaseP HQW SDJ HVf $ 0 $ Way cost, 10 pages „ Other, SDJ HVDQGP XFKP RUH 2 Q$ SULO DQ( QW HUprise headline by Mike Lynch reads: ñ A.M.A. annex gets final approval 3-0.” I do not think that was a final approval.

This is only one small step in a very long process to conform W R$ UW LFO H DQG RI W KH village code. The process must meet the same requirements of Bruce Sapiro in his One Dewey Mountain village development off Lake Street, which were very long and very expensive. See SLFW XUHVDQGSDJ HV DQG RI P \ SDJ HERRN Also the village must meet the same requirements that Robert Scheefer did for his Hawk Ridge (Dewey Mountain) development near Glenwood, which included a stop work order, a cease and desist order, plus years of hard work at great cost.

counsel and regulatory compliance. It does not cover other operational costs that would need to be heavily subsidized by the state (thatÍ s us!) in perpetuity.

The massive ongoing costs of this restored rail service, for which there is no public need and no discernible demand, stands in stark contrast to the negligible costs of a recreational trail, which would benefit the people of the State of New York to a much greater extent.

The way seems clear. The state should conduct a long-overdue review of its corridor management plan for the entire Adirondack line. It should weigh all the facts, evaluate all the studies, listen to the public, and make the right decision without further dithering.

WeÍ ve let this rail corridor„ a precious public resource-languish long enough. It has the potential to be a world-class recreational trail„ a safe, peaceful, scenic pathway connecting Adirondack communities, for people of all ages and physical abilities. There would be nothing like this Adirondack Rail Trail anywhere in the country. It would be the best thing, recreationally and economically, that could happen to the Adirondack Park.

The time for action is now.

Further, A.M.A. has enjoyed complete control, peace and reduced traffic for many years.

When the gates and their streets are open to the public, there will be greatly increased traffic, cars and trucks, some at high speed, on their way to the ski hill, Malone, Bloomingdale and Plattsburgh. A.M.A. will be a much different place. No such thing that the HUD process will solve these problems, especially after the mayor moves on.

andy@denpubs.com OLD FORGE „ The Gibson Brothers are maintaining world-class caliber performances this spring while promoting their newest album thanks to a succession of professional guests on the mandolin.

In mid-April, mandolin player Joe Walsh announced he was parting ways with Eric and Leigh Gibson after being with the band for more than four years. It came at a challenging time, as the Gibson Brothers began the busy festival season on the road without Walsh.

They also began touring with a new CD, ñ They Called It Music,î recently released by Compass Records. Then thereÍ s the added pressure of being the 2012 IBMA Entertainers of the Year, an honor the brothers recognize but take in stride.

Cobb will be filling in on a few more dates, as will Sierra Hull, until the brothers choose WalshÍ s replacement. Adam Steffey will also be playing mandolin with the Gibsons and was with them this week at Bluegrass & BBQ in Branson, Mo. ñ We are using different award-winning mandolin players for the next month,î Leigh said in an email. ñ I wanted to make sure we had a quality performer with us while we decided who would take over the job without rushing to a decision. While you can never be certain someone will be the right answer for the long term, giving ourselves time to find the next player can only help make a better call.î Using a variety of mandolin players takes the pressure off of finding a full-time player right away, according to Leigh, who expects to have a new member in place by July. ñ But for now IÍ m having fun getting to know and work with some incredible pickers,î Leigh said.

The performance in Old Forge was a homecoming of sorts for the Gibson Brothers, who were playing to a crowd of longtime fans and

CVFS to end season with Westport native’s ‘Fort Apache’ WHALLONSBURG „ Westport native Addison Mehr, will present his movie Fort Apache at a Champlain Valley Film Society show on Saturday, May 25th. Much of this coming-of-age story was filmed in Westport, Lake Placid, and Moriah. A cast and crew of 30 people worked on the film and shooting took 11 days and was spread over 12 locations. Mehr will introduce his movie and answer questions afterward.

Mehr is a graduate of the Westport Central School and also New York University’s prestigious film school. Fort Apache is his senior thesis film. The movie was funded in part by supporters through the website Kickstarter. Also, Academy Award-winning

director Martin Scorsese donated a signed poster to help raise the money needed for this ambitious project. Mehr has worked with Scorsese and Court 13, the filmmaking collective behind the Academy Award nominated Beasts of the Southern Wild. He will be presenting their short film Glory at Sea alongside Fort Apache.

Fort Apache is the story of Walt Freely, a young boy who struggles to escape small town life.

Former students talk about role CFES played for them keith@denpubs.com ESSEX „ Joshua Johnson thought he was going to be a basketball player, even up until his senior year of high school. ñ I had centered my whole life in basketball,î Johnson said to those who attended the grand opening of the College For Every Student Center in Essex May 10. ñ CFES helped me to re-direct my path and made me focus on school and getting my grades up.î Johnson also started to hone another one of his talents, using tap dancing as a way to start

building a college fund that he would eventually use to pay his way into Penn State University. ñ I really was not supposed to be a Penn State student,î Johnson said. ñ When four of my best friends applied, I figured that I would to and I ended up being the first to get accepted.”

Johnson then went to work in the subways and streets of New York City, dancing for money to help pay for his dream. ñ Financials was always the problem,î he said. “Right before my first year, I was about VK\ RI Z KDW, QHHGHG , FDOOHG .

Still, Johnson continued to tap for tuition, making the five-hour commute between Happy Valley and his New York home to dance on the weekends. As people started to learn about his story, Johnson started to be featured on television shows, eventually ending up on the Ellen DeGeneres show. ñ Without the DaltonÍ s and CFES, I would not be in college preparing for my senior year or on Ellen with my talents,î Johnson said. ñ This is just one of the many ways CFES shows love to the students it works with, especially those who are struggling.î Johnson performed for those at the event, and told people to ñ discover something they enjoy and then figure out how you can add a re-mix to it.î Also on hand at the celebration was Shameka Cobb, who also attended high school in New York City and was preparing to enter her final year at the Cornell Medical School. ñ I never thought I would be here today,î Cobb said. ñ I just wanted to get a job anywhere I could that would help out my single mother.î Cobb said that CFES helped her map out a plan in high school that allowed her to accomplish her goals in college as she progresses towards a medical degree. ñ There is so much that they have done for me,î she said. ñ It is so great to see the growth of this organization as I have watched the growth of my own career.

Essex County Sheriff ’s Department: There’s an app for that keith@denpubs.com LEWIS „ The Essex County SheriffÍ s Department has an app.

Sheriff Richard Cutting and Capt. Thomas Murphy unveiled the new way for people to access the department to members of the Essex &RXQW \ 3 XEOLF 6DIHW \ &RP P LW W HH0 D\ Cutting said that the app was provided through the New York State SheriffÍ s Association and a grant program that allows them to work with Appriss. ñ Just go to the app store for Apple or a smart phone and search for MobilePatrol „ one word,î Cutting said. ñ Then you can pick your state and county to make that your default. You can also log in to other counties that have this system and look at their information.î Cutting said that the app will allow people to see recent bookings into the Essex County Jail

(with pictures), see who is being held at the jail, search for warrants, receive alerts and report crime tips. ñ This will be another way that people can give us tips,î Murphy said. ñ It will go through a secure site and notify us of the tip. The sex offender watch is not on there right now, but we are working to get the watch list up and running.î ñ We encourage people to use it because it will keep the system active and will keep the grant going through the sheriffÍ s association,î Cutting said.

The sheriff added that people will also be able to sign up for the victim alert program, which allows them to know when a person who committed a crime against them or someone they know has an upcoming event such as a parole hearing or release.

Franklin County is also listed under the MobilePatrol App and shows similar information as the Essex County site.

Hutchins named Director of Student Services at ELCS ELIZABETHTOWN „ The Elizabethtown-Lewis Central Board of Education appointed Cheryl Hutchins to an administrative position as part of the School districtÍ s recent restructuring of administrative personnel.

Hutchins will serve the school district as the Director of Student Services, a position that officially begins July 1. ñ We are very pleased that Mrs. Hutchins will continue her new role in district level leadership here at Elizabethtown Lewis,î commented Superintendent/Principal Scott Osborne. ñ Mrs. Hutchins is a very well respected professional in our school community. She has a depth of familiarity with our students, their families, and all of our school communities as a whole. Her service has been a positive step within our school building, and that will continue to be the case.î Serving as the Director of Student Services, Hutchins will be responsible for administration and leadership of the Committee on Special Education, as well as the Committee on Pre-School education, Academic Intervention Services, and Response to ,QW HUYHQW LRQ VHUYLFHSURJ UDP V all aimed at designing and creating supports for students.

Hutchins will continue her role as K-12 Dean of Students, as well.

The appointment of Hutchins finalizes the School Board’s restructuring of administrative staffing, prompted by a year of leadership transition for Elizabethtown-Lewis CSD. Last June, Superintendent Gail Else retired. During August

2012, former Principal and CSE Director Jennifer Bull left the district for another position in the Ticonderoga Central School District. ñ A. Paul Scott served as our interim superintendent for a period of time, from July through November,î Osborne said. ñ During that time, Cheryl Hutchins was called to serve our students, and she answered that call, starting the school year as our interim principal.î During summer 2012, based on the resignation of administrator Jennifer Bull, the Board determined the need to recruit for a full-time K-12 ñ Director of Special Servicesî role that includes

the duties of CSE Chairperson; &36( &KDLUSHUVRQ 6HFW LRQ Chairperson; State-mandated accountability assessment and testing for K-12 special education, compensatory education and developmental education programs; Title IX Officer and other essential duties as assigned by the Superintendent/ Principal.

High school rivals join to raise money for cancer research

soccer fundraiser the Lady Eagles participated in with Schroon Lake. Last fall was the second year that the two teams had worked together on the fundraiser. ñ We both had people who had been affected by cancer, and we wanted to do something to raise money to help fund research,î Eagles softball assistant and soccer head coach Brad Rascoe said. ñ We had cards in school that people

New camera system for county lockup gets committee approval

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com ELIZABETHTOWN — When first installed in 2005, Essex County had a state-of-the art video surveillance system at the public safety building and jail facility.

With time, however, state-of-the-art becomes obsolete and parts become more and more scarce.

Assessors

Continued from page 1 rently are part of a Coordinated Assistance Program.

Westport Supervisor Dan Connell explained that the CAP allows the three municipalities to be seen as one in the eyes of the state when it comes to the

hiring of an assessor. ñ It is a 10-year contract that the three towns signed with the state, and we are treated as one assessment unit,î Connell said.

The term of current assessor David Galarneau runs out in September, and Connell said that the three towns were looking at an alternative approach to fill the final four years of the

CAP agreement. î This is not new. It is happening around the state with a number of towns and counties,î Connell said, pointing to an agreement between the town of Champlain and Clinton County. ñ We are looking at it in this world that we are in of tax caps and shared services that we can

try for a year to see if it works,î Connell said. ñ We can put these three towns together and have enough parcels for this to make sense.î Finance chairman Tom Scozzafava expressed reservations about the plan. ñ The reason that this is a sixyear term is so you can keep the politics out of the assessor,î

S T E K TIC LE A S N O !

Scozzafava said. ñ I am a little concerned about a county employee going out to do the assessment for these three towns and if the town boards are not happy with the assessments they will go to the real property director and say that they want them out.î Connell said it was a matter of professionalism. ñ We believe that the county has professionals on staff that can do the job better than anyone that we can find on the free market,î Connell said.

Elizabethtown Supervisor Margaret Bartley also explained while she felt the county-appointed assessor would be a good thing. ñ It works very well for these three small towns,ñ she said. ñ The county is already doing some of the work and is not getting paid for it. If we look to share services and that would open the gates to shared services grant funding that would all go directly to the county.î Bartley also said that a familiarity with the person doing the work would be helpful. ñ When we go out to bid, we do not know these people,î she said. ñ Everything that I am doing right now is an attempt to reduce taxpayersÍ expenses. I know that I will have someone that is here on time because I know Charli wants her people to be there on time.î The plan would pay the FRXQW \ SHU DFUH DQG QHW M XVWRYHU LQUHYHQXHDIW HU

paying the expenses associated with a raise in pay for the appointed county assessor and hiring a new position in the real property office. ñ This is a money saver for the towns and a revenue stream for the county,î Bartley said. ñ We can come back here in a year and show you the numbers, and if it does not work, then we will not go back.î Real Property Services Director Charli Lewis said that there are currently three members of her staff who are qualified to be assessors, but that if the plan were to go through, they would have to add staff. ñ I feel that we are shortstaffed now and if we were to do this we would have to promote and we would have to hire another,î Lewis said. ñ I look at it as two days a week in Willsboro, one in Westport and one in Elizabethtown and a fifth day floating between the towns that need it the most that day.î Newcomb Supervisor George Canon said he was against the idea of taking the assessment role out of the town. ñ I have tremendous concerns that the state is going to stick their nose into the assessment business,î Canon said. ñ I would never support the county being in the assessment business.î

North Country WWII veterans honored all the way to D.C.

By Shaun Kittle

shaun@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH „ As the sun rose over VermontÍ s Green Mountains on Saturday, May 18, 18 World War II veterans left Plattsburgh to visit the National World War II Memorial in Washington D.C. The trip marked the inaugural flight of North Country Honor Flight, a non-profit organization dedicated to honoring World War II veterans by taking them to the memorial.

Hundreds showed up at the Old Base Oval in Plattsburgh for a ceremony to see the veterans off.

More than a dozen uniformed troops, who stood at attention as the veterans and their guardians boarded the bus, were also on hand.

As the bus pulled up to the Albany Airport, Thompson went silent as he saw the hundreds of people who were gathered there, waiting to greet the veterans.

His silence was borne of appreciation. ñ This is really something,î he said. ñ I feel honored.î Each veteran exited the bus with his guardian, and each pair was met with a wave of enthusiasm and, as Thompson had indicated, appreciation.

They were treated like movie stars walking down the red carpet or, more appropriately, they were treated like heroes who sacrificed their lives for the safety of others.

ThompsonÍ s guardian, Plattsburgh State student Yohanna Mueller, was also moved by the turnout. ñ The fact that weÍ re honoring veterans in such a way shows me that Americans still care,î Mueller said. ñ ItÍ s not political, itÍ s not about money or about whatÍ s right or wrong. ItÍ s just about what people want to do personally.î In Albany, the North Country Honor Flight veterans were joined by the Leatherstocking Honor Flight of Cobbleskill, NY. Together, the two groups brought about 55 veterans to Washington D.C. But before they boarded the plane, they were treated to a short send-off ceremony that included a live Army band and several speeches. ñ ItÍ s heartwarming to know that so many people stll care,î said North Country Honor Flight Guardian Coordinator Kimberly Bouissey as she fought back tears. ñ These veterans havenÍ t been forgotten.î

APA seeks comment on Whiteface UMP RAY BROOK „ The Adirondack Park Agency (APA) is accepting public comment for a proposed amendment to the Whiteface Mountain Ski Center Unit Management Plan. The APA will accept public comments regarding the compliance of the proposed amendment to the guidelines and criteria of the Adirondack Park State Land Master Plan. The public FRP P HQWSHULRG Z LOOHQG RQ-XQH Whiteface Mountain Ski Center is located in the Town of Wilmington, Essex County, New York and is a New York State - owned facility. It operates under the administrative jurisdiction of the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC), and is managed by the Olympic Regional Development Authority (ORDA) through a Memorandum of Understanding with the DEC. The facility is classified as an “Intensive Use Area” under the Adirondack Park State Land Master Plan (SLMP). An intensive use area is an area where the state provides facilities for intensive forms of outdoor recreation by the public.

ORDA operates a year-round multi-use recreation area on Whiteface Mountain

which provides opportunities for public use such as competitive and recreational downhill skiing, hiking, mountain biking, and summer scenic gondola rides. ORDA has proposed an amendment to redevelop an existing ski patrol building that is located on the summit of Little Whiteface.

The proposed project would enhance the capabilities and services provided to the general public by the Whiteface Mountain Ski Patrol.

In addition, the new structure would contain necessary emergency antenna and communication equipment that are critical components of the Essex County public safety radio communication sysW HP 7 KH/ LW W OH: KLW HIDFHVLW HLVRQHRI locations which the APA approved as part of an overall project to modernize and improve emergency communications for Essex County and New York State.
