HELPERS, LARGE AND SMALL

Individuals, agencies step up to help those in need By Tim Rowland

WFC pastor sends messages of hope through Facebook between 8 a.m. and 9 a.m. during the week, Smith said he wants those who follow the posts to use this time of social distancing and staying at home to reset. “We can use this as a time to reset and see the positives and see the goodness that is out there, even in this challenging time,” said Smith. “We need to be as caring as we can and as compassionate as we can to those around us.”

WILMINGTON | As the federal government was working out the details of a mighty stimulus package in Washington, D.C., a bottom-up, grass roots effort across the Adirondacks began to play out this week as small-town governments, foundations and individuals looked for ways to help stem the pain of the coronavirus health crisis. Lisa Pace and her husband Herb posted a message on a community newsletter in Essex County offering to run errands for elderly residents who needed help. “I think what made me finally put the ad in was seeing a story about an elderly couple who needed to get groceries but were scared they’d become infected,” Pace said. “So they flagged down a young woman in the parking lot, gave her a $100 bill and a shopping list and asked her to do it for them, which she did. It made me sad they were so scared.” On the other end of the scale, the Adirondack Foundation, in partnership with the United

Wilmington Supervisor Roy Holzer started an email chain to provide local businesses with information about where they can get help. Photo provided

WESTPORT | The COVID-19 pandemic has affected all areas of life, including the way people worship. Placed of worship have all been asked to close down on a state, national and global scale, leaving parishioners wondering where they can turn for comfort and fellowship. In the case of one Westport congregation, the answer is found on Facebook, as pastor Tom Smith has been holding weekly worship services as well uploading daily encouragement messages to the social media platform.

Way of the Adirondack Region other foundations and businesses, announced a $300,000 response fund to rapidly send money to urgently needed community programs. The Special and Urgent Needs (SUN) fund was seeded by the Adirondack Foundation, Cloudsplitter Foundation, Charles R. Wood Foundation, United Way of the Adirondack Region and Adirondack Energy’s Adirondack for Kids, among others. “This collective commitment of funders is a testament to our dedication to the Adirondack region and a recognition that we can amplify our impact by working together,” said Cali Brooks, President and CEO, Adirondack Foundation. “We will work to rapidly deploy resources where they are most needed and adapt to evolving needs.” The fund is accepting donations from those who want to help, and accepting applications from organizations in need. Grant funding will focus on four critical areas of need: access to food, child care services, support for low-wage workers and the eldery, and support for nonprofits and small businesses.

For additional information about making a donation to the SUN Fund, contact Matt Donahue, matt@adkfoundation.org. For information about applying for a grant, contact Andrea Grout, andrea@adkfoundation.org. Meanwhile, the Adirondack North Country Association (ANCA) has announced a $100,000 Local Food Security Grant opportunity for farms in its 14-county service area. Funded by the same anonymous donors who funded a similar program in 2019, the grants, from $2,500 to $25,000 will help local food producers to, for example, expand supply chains, build crop storage facilities, provide farmer subsidies so products can be offered to the public at reduced cost, and expand direct marketing options. Details can be found at https://adirondack. org/FoodSystemSecurityGrant. Other communities were taking steps to make sure their people were connected, even in a time of isolation. In Wilmington, Supervisor Roy Holzer created an email group for small business owners so they could stay in touch and share stories, problems and information about resources, such

The church is also reaching out to help the Westport community by assisting the food bank in transporting needed goods both to and from the pantry. “We have volunteers who will receive orders, pick up the donations and help to distribute them,” said Smith. “We know that many demands are being put on people and we want to help in any way we can.” The drive is also being posted on Facebook, with those in need asked to email the church (Westfedchurch@westelcom.com) with their household number and list of needed supplies. ■

Local businesses can be added to the email group in Wilmington by contacting the town offices at 518 946-7179 town offices or emailing townsupervisor@townofwilmington.org “It is essential we get our business community back up and running as soon as this is over,” Holzer said. “I know all too well the weight of responsibility that we all share. In most cases, our employees are like family. Getting our local economy back up and running will be paramount to our recovery.” Those sentiments were echoed by Garry Douglas, president of the North Country Chamber of Commerce, who said businesses must hunker down for now, but be ready to meet pent up demand once the crisis abates. A comprehensive list of services is available on the chamber’s website at northcountrychamber.com, which includes the advice to “act on facts, not fear or falsehood. It is indisputable that the number of cases will grow but it is also important to respond to this health situation with ‘best practice’ measures and not with panic.” ■

Saranac Lake offices have a separate entrance, and Mayor Clyde Rabideau has not issued an emergency at this point. Village offices remain open but with limited human contact, a concerted effort to foster social distancing. “There is a drop box at the top of the stairs for any payments or forms that need to be left at the front desk,” village officers said in a news release. “For water and sewer payments please include a copy of the bill with your check to ensure payments are applied properly. All forms can be located on our website www.saranaclakeny.gov. They can be located under About Us in the

childcare, according to the United Way of the Adirondack Region, is a worry for parents who have wondered where to turn as “social distancing” imposes difficult decisions on individual workdays and lifestyles, while unforeseen pressures constrict economies near and far. While at home, many parents seek out resources online, particularly within their social media networks.

PLATTSBURGH | During this emergency time period, communities and individuals throughout New York State have seriously interpreted instructions from the Center for Disease Control (CDC) to self-isolate in an attempt to “flatten the curve”, minimizing the continued spread of COVID-19. When in public, individuals have been instructed to stay at least six feet apart, pay particular attention to hygiene and avoid congregating as much as possible—ensuring that physical groups do not exceed ten people—as health officials work to identify and confirm further cases of the virus.

The “Plattsburgh Moms Group”, with 2.6K members, has fielded questions and concerns specifically from mothers throughout the area during this time. “We’ve been managing the information the best we can as we’ve been inundated,” said Group Administrator Debbie Burns. “We have moms offering up diapers and formulas when they have extra which is always amazing to see. We’re not coordinating any drop offs or donations, but have multiple threads going for information to stay updated.” “We’ve been flooded with member requests and love seeing the local community show up for one another,” she added.

Brave new virtual world: Social media resources, performances virtually, at the same time. Similarly, some grassroots sharedviewing experiences have cropped up at the local level, offering education, entertainment and community interactions for audiences of families, children and individuals during this otherwise isolating time.

Online content keeps audiences connected to favorite local activities, pastimes By Alina Walentowicz STAFF WRITER

PLATTSBURGH | Logistics, of schooling, working from home, paying bills, ordering food, communicating with family, friends and healthcare providers, shift into the virtual sphere for the foreseeable future through web-based technology.

HOME-GROWN ACCESSIBILITY, SHARED LOCAL EXPERIENCES

As many popular events are canceled and area movie theaters are mandated to close, some video streaming services, like Netflix, have added “party” extensions to browsers, allowing multiple audiences to watch the same film,

a recent morning after speaking with a former college classmate in Italy who had observed economic impacts of the coronavirus abroad, drawing attention to the recent and impending effects of COVID-19 “social distancing” measures on the arts and hospitality industries. A professional opera singer and mom of three, Knapton said in the group artists, musicians, dancers and other area members of the performance arts industries will be able to offer free and paid classes, performances, tutorials, at-home “paint-and-sip” events and other creative activities viewers from throughout the region and beyond can try from home. “This comes out of a sense of music therapy and wellness, a sense of healthy arts, of offering something for everyone,” said Knapton. In Plattsburgh, a Facebook post made by the Strand Center for the Arts declared a “Strand-ed Concert Series” featuring Justin Stearns, a pianist and former board member for the theatre. On a recent weekend prior to Sunday evening’s ban on non-essential business, Stearns played the piano concert, live streaming at the empty venue, and took requests from viewers. This sponsored event also served as a fundraiser for the Strand, collecting virtual donations in support of the theatre through the Facebook page (@strandcenter). Visit official Facebook pages via handles listed above to catch up on these local online campaigns. ■

CHILDREN’S ACTIVITIES

Plattsburgh Public Library Youth Services Librarian Ben Carman went live on the library’s Youtube channel as “Mr. Ben’s Virtual Storytime” launched through a children’s room group on the library’s Facebook page (@PlattsburghPublicLibrary). Videos featured library staff members sharing author-approved picture-book readings, including sharing additional videos from local authors. The Childcare Coordinating Council of the Adirondacks also provided a series of live children’s activities from its Facebook page (@childcarecoordinating.council.3).

ARTS PERFORMANCES

Artists and creatives throughout the region are improvising amidst COVID-19 “social distancing” measures.

New York State on PAUSE Only essential business open; Matilda’s Law enacts strict policy for elders age 70+ and people with chronic, underlying health conditions By Kim Dedam STAFF WRITER

Governor Andrew Cuomo holds a press briefing on Coronavirus, announcing 100 percent workforce reduction excluding essential services. New York on Pause also enacts Matilda’s Law with special protection measures for state residents age 70 and older.

ELIZABETHTOWN |Gov. Andrew Cuomo hit the pause button. By executive order, effective Sunday, he closed all businesses in the state except for essential services, which include hospitals, grocery stores, pharmacies, transportation service, gas station and public safety functions. Restaurants and bars providing curbside or take-out meals are considered essential. The order also bans all non-essential gatherings of individuals of any size for any reason. Called “New York State on PAUSE,” the executive order institutes a 10-point policy to assure uniform safety for everyone.

using isopropyl alcohol wipes.

Cuomo also enacted a more cautionary set

PROTECTING HEALTHCARE WORKERS

In New York State, Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s focus remains steady on all ways to provide proper protection for healthcare workers, including doctors, nurses and others working on front lines to save lives. To address the global shor tage of personal protective equipment (PPE), Cuomo asked all PPE product providers to sell any products to the state that are not essential or not currently being used. Businesses interested in selling products to the state should contact Simonida Subotic at 646-522-8477 or covid19supplies@exec.ny.gov. Cuomo is also encouraging any company with the proper equipment or personnel to begin to manufacture PPE products if possible. Businesses interested in receiving state funding to manufacture PPE products should contact Eric Gertler at 212-803-3100 or COVID19supplies@esd.ny.gov. To expand hospital bed capacity across New York, state Department of Health

officials, state lawmakers and Cuomo asked every hospital to come up with a plan to expand capacity by a minimum of 50 percent, with a longer term goal to expand capacity by 100 percent. And New York has directed every hospital to cancel all elective, non-critical surgeries, effective Wednesday, March 25.

TEMPORARY HOSPITALS

Increased testing in New York has identified the biggest potential wave of COVID-19 in New York City. Working with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, state authorities have identified four sites for temporary hospitals: SUNY Stony Brook; Westbury, on Long Island; Westchester County Center; and at the Javits Center in the city. As Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) hospitals, these facilities come with staff and with supplies. “They’re in 250-bed configurations, we’re asking for four of those 250-bed

configurations to be assembled,” Cuomo said in an address on Sunday. “That will then give us regional coverage in downstate New York which is our most heavily impacted area. In addition, the U.S. Navy is preparing its hospital ship, the U.S.N.S. Comfort. to provide another 1,000 hospital beds and resources once it relocates to New York Harbor. “The President signed the FEMA Emergency Declaration which allows FEMA to go to work,” Cuomo said of progress made in tandem with the federal government. “By that emergency declaration, funding for these services is split: 75 percent by the federal government, 25 percent by the state government. ... I’m also requesting that the President waive the 25 percent. I just cannot pay the 25 percent. We literally don’t have the funding to do it. And by the way, I don’t believe any state will be in the position to pay the 25 percent.” ■

of rules for elders, people over 70 years of age. He named it the Matilda’s Law in honor of his mother. Regulation applies to people with underlying medical conditions, such as heart disease, or people with compromised immune systems and other chronic health problems. “Matilda’s Law” includes the following rules for vulnerable populations: 1) Remain indoors. 2) You can go outside for solitary exercise. 3) Pre-screen all visitors and aides by taking their temperature and seeing if person is exhibiting other flu-like symptoms. 4) Do not visit households with multiple people. 5) Wear a mask when in the company of others. 6) To the greatest extent p o s s ible ,

everyone in the presence of vulnerable people should wear a mask. 7) Always stay at least six feet away from individuals. 8) Do not take public transportation unless urgent and absolutely necessary. Cuomo has also ordered a 90-day moratorium on any residential or commercial evictions. “This executive order builds on the actions we have taken to reduce the spread of the virus and protect the wellbeing of our friends, colleagues and neighbors. But again, I want to remind New Yorkers that the panic we are seeing is outpacing the reality of the virus — and we will get through this period of time together,” the governor said. “We know the most effective way to reduce the spread of this virus is through social distancing and density reduction measures. I have said from the start that any policy decision we make will be based on the facts, and as we get more facts we will calibrate our response accordingly.”

NORTH COUNTRY NUMBERS

COVID-19 resources for local residents are available on county public health department websites. As of early Monday, there is one confirmed case of COVID-10 in Warren County. There were 41 confirmed cases in Saratoga County; two in Hamilton County; three in Essex County and four in Clinton County. There were 123 in Albany County. The statewide total surged past 15,000 early this week as testing ramped up in the state. Even as pandemic spreads, Cuomo is looking at ways to stratify a return to work plan for the state, possibly with a restart with young people who have overcome COVID-19. The state will begin trials with hydroxychloroquine, a malaria drug, and Zithromax, an antibiotic, with approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Test cases will be reserved for those seriously ill with COVID-19. ■

Students must meet certain eligibility requirements in order to qualify, including full-time enrollment, an average of 15 credits per semester, and good academic standing. They’re also encouraged to engage with the campus community, which is shown by national studies to be linked with higher graduation rates. The program adds to the list of college affordability initiatives underway at Paul Smith’s. In January, a tuition scholarship for SUNY Adirondack graduates was announced, and a similar program for North Country Community College alumni has been in place since 2017.

Ferry cuts: EssexCharlotte route closed, Grand Isle down a vessel

It is important to point out that there is no treatment for COVID-19 and many people will have only mild symptoms. Staying home and getting lots of fluids and rest is what we recommend in those cases.

STAFF WRITER

ESSEX | In the face of a trying economic situation facing the Lake Champlain Transportation Company, severe cuts were made including the elimination of a service line and the reduction of service on the other. LCTC has shut down the Essex, New York, to Charlotte, Vermont. line as of Friday, while announcing they would only have two ferries operating at the Cumberland Head-Grand Isle line starting Monday. “We recognize that this is not an ideal situation, however, these are highly unusual times,” said LCTC in a statement. “We are temporarily suspending service between Charlotte and Essex until further notice effective at end of schedule on Thursday, March 19.” “Our highest priority is to continue ferry service between Vermont and New York,” the statement added. “With the traffic significantly reduced at both crossings, it is necessary to mobilize all of our resources to sustain service at the Grand Isle/Cumberland Head Crossing.

Together, we have the ability to slow the spread of this virus. The most effective way to do so is to prevent new cases. The most effective way to prevent new cases is to take strict social distancing measures and remain home if you are sick. In an effort to protect our patients and staff: • All routine visits and non-urgent, elective procedures that can safely be delayed have been postponed.

CONCERNS RAISED

• No visitors: as per New York State Department of Health guidance, only visitors essential to the care of a patient will be permitted at the Elizabethtown and Ticonderoga campuses.

The announcements drew concern from both hubs on the New York side. “Because of shutdowns and travel limitations, traffic on the Lake Champlain Ferries is down significantly,” noted Garry Douglas, North Country Chamber of Commerce president in a press statement. “The company is doing what it can to sustain operations but given how crucial the connection is, we need to be concerned.” “As soon as I read it I said, that’s a problem, so I immediately called a friend who worked for the company and she confirmed what I had received in a text message,” said Essex supervisor Ken Hughes. “I called LCTC headquarters and nobody was there so I left a message and said I was protesting the decision as the supervisor of Essex.” Hughes said his concern was for people from throughout the county who have medical appointments and other needs on the other side of the lake and rely on the ferry. Douglas agreed. “This poses serious impacts on health care, given the high integration of health care systems, including most of our hospitals, in the

• Regular business hours at the Crown Point and High Peaks Health Centers, and Saturday hours at the Elizabethtown Community Health Center, will be suspended. The UVM Health Network - Elizabethtown Community Hospital’s highest priority is to provide quality care to patients while maintaining a safe workspace for staff. Response protocols have been developed through the organization’s significant experiences with similar health care scenarios. A multidisciplinary team is coordinating preparedness and tailoring plans as more information comes in from around the world.

‘NOT GOOD’

Heather Stewart, operations manager with LCTC, said things, at the moment, are “not too good.” “We want to keep a link going between New York and Vermont going, so that is why we are focusing on the Grand Isle crossing,” Stewart said. “Nobody wants this, we don’t want this and we will be doing our best to get back there,” Stewart said of the Essex—Charlotte crossing closure. “When we can get back there, we will get back there as soon as we can.” ■ Contact Shannon Christian at 518-873-6368 ext. 201 or email shannonc@ suncommunitynews.com to place a listing.

Hughes started a petition, found on Change.org, to reopen the Essex-Charlotte run, which as of Monday morning, March 23, had received 555 signatures and is now asking for 1,000. “This is an unacceptable closing of a very important crossing between Essex and Charlotte,” said the statement on the petition homepage. “We respect that the volume of traffic may be down, but many rely on this crossing as a land-line to Vermont for medical appointments and work related needs. LCTC keeps the ferry open in the winter with far less traffic and in much icier conditions. We implore LCTC to reopen the crossing and help Vermont and New York residents to stay connected as needed between our two states. LCTC — reopen the Essex-Charlotte ferry crossing now!” In signing the petition, some responded with why they were doing so. “I rely on the ferry to cross the lake and help my elderly parents,” posted Kitty Frazier. “The ferry provides a vital service for residents on both sides of the lake,” added Brian DeGroat. “In the past when I have needed the ferry to stay running at inconvenient (to the ferry company) times, they have discontinued service and have had no voice,” replied Becky Hance. “This now gives me a voice. Please stay running!”

Champlain Valley,” said Douglas. “In 2019, there were 1,700 transfers by ferry between northern New York hospitals and (UVM Medical Center) in Burlington. It is also estimated by the University of Vermont Health Network that approximately 130 patients travel independently by ferry to medical appointments across the lake each day. They also estimate that some 160 providers, nurses and other hospital employees commute by ferry each day.”

City staff work from home, conference call participation Mayor discusses remote staffing, digital public meeting access, “Local Emergency” update By Alina Walentowicz STAFF WRITER

PLAT TSBURGH | Amidst a national testing shortage and now two confirmed cases in Clinton County, City of Plattsburgh Mayor Colin Read (D) offered an update on local COVID-19 impacts recently at City Hall as county health officials continue working to identify cases of the virus throughout the region. “It’s concerning, but it’s obviously not surprising,” Read told the press. “We were speculating last week that there was probably a dozen cases last week. I would guess that if we found two cases, given how this virus incubates; how it takes a little time to be aware of symptoms; how many people won’t have symptoms at all; how it particularly affects the elderly, I wouldn’t be surprised if the cases we discover now were really infections from one to two weeks ago.” In sync with communications from the governor’s office to trim physical staff presence down by seventy-five percent, the City of Plattsburgh has transitioned remaining employees to remote and appointment-only work during this emergency period. Operating at a lean, essentials-only capacity, municipal services still provided by the city include police, fire, water, sewer and lighting—all deemed critical infrastructure. The city will be also utilizing its recently-added second fire-truck ahead of schedule, Read said. “We’re prepared for the long haul in this.” He suggested that these emergency operations adjustments could potentially last until September, in line with President Donald Trump’s projections.

OPEN MEETINGS ADJUSTMENTS; ONLINE ACCESS

Governor Andrew Cuomo suspended aspects of the state’s Open Meeting Law, accommodating schools’ and municipalities’ growing conference-calling needs throughout the state as they closed their doors to minimize spreading COVID-19. Because of this, the executive order states meeting business can occur without in-person attendance from the public, “provided that the public has the ability to view or listen to such proceeding and that such meetings are recorded and later transcribed.”

IMPORTANT NOTICE

All City of Plattsburgh meetings will continue to be livestreamed on social media, with remote councilor participation; the city’s official Youtube channel is where residents can find meetings online and comment in an adjacent chat box. Residents are also encouraged to continue submitting formal written comments by email to carlinb@cityofplattsburgh-ny.gov for consideration as well. Across the board, online interactions and bill payments are encouraged during this time; use of the city’s drop boxes, such as the one located in Trinity Park, are also available for submitting communications.

In accordance with Governor Cuomo’s request to slow down the rate of infection to better match the rate of local health care systems, Sun Community News has elected to close all offices from public admittance. This action is effective immediately and will extend until further notice.

MODIFICATIONS TO LOCAL STATE OF EMERGENCY; TIME-SHARING, DISTANCES

While closed to the public, the offices WILL CONTINUE to operate with limited staff, while other employees have been encouraged to work from home,

The sharp smell of bleach filled the air at City Hall recently as Mayor Colin Read (D) issued adjustments to the Local State of Emergency that originally went into action on Mon. Mar. 16. Governor Andrew Cuomo recently ordered that all statewide employees able to operate from home do so. Because of this, some responsibilities have been shuffled among City of Plattsburgh employees possessing reasonably similar “overall skills”. The city has increased the recommended distance between individuals from 2 meters (6 feet) to 3 meters (10 feet). Adopting a “time-share” system, city equipment and spaces will be utilized to accommodate as few individuals within a given time frame as possible so employees can avoid working in close proximity to one another. The mayor said he hopes a similar system can be adopted by residents and businesses as they shop at essential area grocery stores, allowing for less congestion. Minimizing face-to-face contact is key, he said. “I would be happy to go and shop at one in the morning if it made our community healthier.” The new city adjustments are expected to modify and strengthen the city’s ability to encourage individuals and businesses to do their part to stay home, summarized Read, in an effort to continue minimizing the spread of COVID-19. Private employers in the cit y, pa r t icu la rly sma l l businesses, a re encouraged to reach out regarding ideas related to addressing cu r rent concer ns; Read said he is hoping for further federal state support on these and other matters moving forward. ■

A few weeks like no other

It has been an extraordinary few weeks as our region, state, country, and nearly the entire world faces historical changes and challenges with the effort to defeat the COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic. Amid the stress and uncertainty we all feel, it’s never been more important to stay connected with one another, even as we hunker down and practice social distancing to avoid transmission and keep each other healthy and safe. For all of us here in the North Country I would like to take a moment to thank you all for doing everything you can. We are seeing from all corners of our region, people helping people. Our government agencies, medical support system, local businesses, and everyday folks like you and me all doing our part in this monumental effort. I am especially proud to see our President and Governor working so well together on behalf of our citizens. I only wish it could work this way all the time, and given the economic tsunami we may be facing, they must continue in this fashion until we fully recover. Here at The Sun, like you at home, we are committed to doing all we can to follow the directions of Governor Cuomo, President Trump, and all our national and local leaders as we continue trying to help each other. Despite being classified as a Media Essential Businesses, we’ve taken steps to limit the employees working from the office. We are organizing online Zoom meetings and even attending online press conferences. Our administrative, news gathering and sales staff are doing almost all their work online, by phone or email with our front office now closed. Our limited production and delivery crew continue to keep the presses running and getting the papers delivered to the post offices so that we can keep you informed. Our graphics and news teams continue to keep our website well populated with the current breaking news as they continue preparations to launch our new site on April 1st. The new site is coming none too soon with advance tools and resources to aid in our 24/7 news delivery program. At the same time, we understand many of our readers throughout the region are not online. They rely heavily on our freely mailed newspaper packed with essential local news, and grocery, pharmacy, and other retail fliers. Just know that due to extraordinary purchases while consumers were stocking up after the recent shutdown announcement, several stores were forced to pull their fliers due to supply chain issues with restocking. What may have been planned for sale items a few weeks ago had to be scrapped, but nearly all have committed to moving forward in the coming weeks now that supplies are being restored. Please let us know if you have news tips or are aware of human interest stories that need to be shared during these trying times. ■

Laughter is the best medicine in trying times. Go head and smile, we’ll get through this. — The Sun

To the editor: The best course to “increase the availability of free parking” is to cancel the Prime Plattsburgh LLC project. Back in the mid 1960s the City of Glen Cove, New York, had a city structure much like Plattsburgh. They were smart then to take the only large parking area and make a multi story parking garage to handle the then current and future parking needs of that city. The virus crisis will be settled eventually. What is of concern to all of us is the economic recovery needs. The state was in dire financial $6 billion debt prior, with maybe $4 billion more to add. Locally we are going to be tasked to cover our “fair share”. My suggestion is to anticipate loss of some of our airline service once this passes and the low cost carriers may not survive. Shut down the “International Arrivals Facility” since it serves only a few corporate and small prop aircraft and no International airline can be profitable with service here. Cut payroll and operating costs. Cancel the planned “International Air Cargo Facility” as impractical and a waste of money. The Clinton County Legislators are aware of this but enjoy spending our limited tax monies. Airlines loaded with passengers from high density Florida to Plattsburgh/ Montreal

Plattsburgh parking

is a major threat. So are the packed warehouses and factory facilities that continue to ignore common health concerns. The unemployed restaurant and leisure business community workers would like to know if any staffing reductions made by the governments means with or without pay for them. And being paid for “telecommunication” from home is unfair and a waste of money. Curtail CCIDA tax relief. Schluter, for example is large enough to not need the pending PILOT relief. Cancel the Prime Plattsburgh LLC PILOT relief application. The elected and employed public employees need to immediatedly address the loss of tax revenue we are going to experience. — Geoffrey B.

To the editor: The public is facing an organizational crisis brought about by closure of schools in response to the corona virus. It is in a time of crisis that an organization’s members will be (more) eager to adopt new structures that promise to reduce the uncertainty and anxiety generated by a crisis... Now is the time to capitalize on alternatives. One such alternative in our tri-county-area focuses on an in-depth study of its local history, geography and cultural anthropology, referred to as: America’s Past Through the Eyes of Local History. This project is offered in response to the fact that an in-depth study of local history and geography is an important link in the education of all students in public education. The following two websites, that are in process, are offered for consideration as an activity for our home-bound students during this crisis: www.americaspastthroughtheeyesoflocalhistory.com and www.dataforamericaspastthroughlocalhistory.com. The first site provides the rationale and basis for the project, designed for teachers and parents, including a section that outlines the processes for student involvement. This project features a record keeping system for keeping track of experiences that will be used for assessing and evaluating learning outcomes. The second site is an extensive collection of documents required for an indepth study regarding Clinton, Essex and Franklin counties in northern New York. There are provisions on each site for input and questions regarding their use; inquiries

AG wants automatic absentee ballots for all voters AG Letitia James requested executive action for April 28 to protect voters, poll workers from pandemic By Kim Dedam STAFF WRITER

ELIZABETHTOWN | New York Attorney General Letitia James has called on state leaders to order absentee ballots sent to all voters. She says the move would ensure that all eligible voters could participate in the April 28 Democratic presidential primary and other special elections without risking the spread of coronavirus disease. Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s office and the legislature have not issued such a directive. But Cuomo did move village elections to coincide with the presidential primary on April 28. James said automatic absentee ballots would make it easier for every voter to cast their vote without jeopardizing public health. “Voters shouldn’t have to choose between their health and the right to cast a ballot,” the AG said in a news release. “Democracy should not be suspended if there is a safe alternative.”

In addition to presidential primaries and village elections, there are special elections to fill seats in the 27th congressional district, the 50th senate district, the 12th assembly district, the 31st assembly district, and the 136th assembly district. Currently, voters who wish to vote absentee must fill out an Absentee Ballot Application to indicate why they cannot vote in person at the polls. There are six reasons: Absent on Election Day; temporary illness or physical disability; permanent illness or physical disability; duties related to primary care; resident or patient of a Veterans Health Administration Hospital; or detention in a jail or prison. James has asked that a new executive order be signed on March 29, extending through April 28, to suspend certain election laws requiring New Yorkers to apply for an absentee ballot. “The exponential rise and spread of coronavirus diagnoses is so grave that allowing normal voting practices to remain in place for the upcoming election would constitute a threat of public illness, sufficient to justify absentee voting, per the State of Emergency declaration.” Use of absentee ballots by all voters, she added, “would lessen the likely negative impact on turnout and on the health of voters and poll workers, and could avoid significant impact on America’s local, statewide, and national economies.” ■

Dax wants to be a farm dog! By Bryeanna Villani COLUMNIST

Hi, I’m Dax! I’m a large collie mix and am close to two years old. I love to play outside and think that winter is the best time of the year because I can romp in the snow! I love to run and slide through the slippery stuff. I’m a happy, energetic boy who has a great time out in the play yard playing ball. I’m not a fan of fetch, though, and often won’t want to give the ball back. I’m also fond of walks and hiking on the trails around the shelter. I do like to be active and wish I had someone to be an exercise partner. I’m a homebody and really like my space, so much so that I can be quite the growling grump when people I don’t know invade it. I’m also a loyal dog, so I’m really just trying to protect my family from new scary people. If I had my wish, I’d want a home that doesn’t have a lot of new people coming in and out, without young kids to bug me and other pets to share my space with. Since coming to the shelter, I’ve found myself to be quite bored. I’ve been considering it and I think it may be time for me to

get a job. I have a lot of stamina, love being outside and active, so I think I’d make a really good farm hand! Plus, on a farm I’d have lots of room to run and could become the collie I’ve always wanted to be! If you think I may be the dog for you, please visit “Adopt a Pet” on the shelter’s website or call the shelter at (518)873-5000 and remember to ask about Dax. We are closed to the public until further notice. Please call the shelter regarding adoptions, surrenders or any other questions that you may have. Please direct any questions to Pam Rock, Shelter Manager. ■

Keeping Busy! By Rich Redman COLUMNIST

The virus has now confined every non-essential New Yorker to stay home. I’m one of those non-essentials now. For some people, this will be a new way of life. Active people don’t like sitting around, like ants. They gotta move, so discovering a homebound mission could be a challenge. Stay at home is the order! That means morning coffee with the boys is out, Friday breakfast with the old guys is out, and getting milk at the local store is now your excitement of the week. Maybe it’s nature’s intervention. We are being reminded, that we are just human, not superior, virus’s bite and that the house needs repairs. If you are married like me, your “to-do” list has now gotten a lot longer and finding a cheesy excuse to get out of the work just got a lot harder. So, it’s down the list I go! The living room at our house just got a new wooden beadboard ceiling, the walls painted, and a chair rail installed. It looks pretty good. The man cave got a real cleaning, and I found junk that I

never knew I had. Valuable must have junk that we collect along the road of life. Fly rods, reels and classic hunting and fishing books of course. Spiller, Tapply, Heacox, Leopold, Wulff, Nova, Wetherell, Gierach, McGuane, Traver, and early Hemingway all overload and bend my bookcase shelves. Now’s a great time to reread some of those grouse and trout scribblings. It’s a great time to do routine maintenance, like cleaning and oiling all your toys. Changing the oil on the vehicles and checking out the brakes and changing the tires is next, as soon as the driveway dries up a bit. I ventured out into the depths of the garage and couldn’t quite get rid of the stuff I may need or use someday. I did reshuff le most of it around; reorganized, you could call it. In two months, I won’t know where I put the organized junk. I did find a jar of self-tapping screws I was looking for last fall. I left them right where I used them last, but when I needed them, I forgot where that was. My woodlot is looking better. The dog and I get into the woods every day for some needed exercise. Next year’s firewood is almost done. Knocking down a hemlock or two and punching holes in the canopy to allow the sun to reach the earth and nurture some new growth is the goal. The logs will be sliced into boards and the smaller diameter wood, used for campfires. The tops and branches are piled

up and once it’s safe to legally burn, it’s bonfire time. Charbroiled hot dogs on sticks! Woodland Party Time! You may feel like fenced-in cattle, but look at the bright side, you can catch up on all those put-off projects and do good. There is the other side: helping others. Giving blood is important, so call ahead to make a safe appointment. Everyone out there has a talent. Share it! For those who sew, there is a need for face masks. You don’t need to leave the house to help. Cook up a delicious meal for a lonely neighbor, give them a phone call and leave it on the porch for them. Put your talents to work by helping others. Check on your elders. See if there is something you can do for them. Help cut and stack firewood, trim some trees or bushes, rake up the leaves and broken branches from the latest snow, ice, and windstorm. Offer to safely get groceries for them. Use your phone and talk to people. Granny and Gramps need to know you are safe. Check up on people! Life isn’t only about taking care of yourself. It’s about taking care of others! Times are going to be tough for a while, but we will get through it. Don’t live in fear, be cautious, smart and stay safe. Solitary work is the best way to keep your mind off problems and it keeps you out of trouble. So, do those chores you have been postponing. Make the best of it by keeping busy. We are all essential! ■

1952 - 2020 ELIZABETHTOWN | Deborah Ann (Graham) LaMotte, 68, of Elizabethtown passed away suddenly on Saturday, March 21, 2020 at Adirondack Medical Center in Saranac Lake, New York. Debbie was born in Plattsburgh, New York, on the 6th day of January 1952, the daughter of Howard (“Hop”) and Elaine (King) Graham. Debbie met her first love, Bob LaMotte. He predeceased her in 2003. Bob was a traveling truck driver, so it’s no surprise that he and Debbie got married and explored other states while they raised four boys before returning to her hometown. A while after Debbie came back home, she was fortunate to find the love she would spend her life with, Kevin J. Simpson Sr. He predeceased her in June 2016. Debbie and Kevin definitely had a lot in common: Coffee, poker table, casinos and some of the biggest hearts anyone could have. Some might say they were the “perfect fit.” She was a CNA for the Horace Nye Nursing Home for many years, from which she eventually retired. However, sitting and doing nothing was hard for her. Following her retirement, in order to keep herself busy, she went into housekeeping, the mail room at Denton Publications and worked as a home health aide. She was one of the most hardworking women around, and wherever Deb was working, she was in charge. A natural leader. Debbie was our “mother hen,” and always knew best and shared her opinion whether you liked it or not. Truthful and honest. This is one of the many things people loved about her. Because of her truth, honesty and warmth, her house was HOME, home to not only family, but anyone. If you needed a meal, there was always something in the fridge to heat up (mainly chicken). If you needed a place to stay, her couch was always available (but only for 30 days). If you needed advice, she would sit right at that kitchen table and listen and talk and not be afraid to tell you if you were wrong or apologize if she was wrong. You could just stop in for a cup of coffee and good company. (If you got there before her, though, you made sure that coffee was brewing before she pulled in.) She was always there “whenever”—just not after 9 p.m. Debbie’s house was where everything happened, and everyone was always there. From early morning on, the house was full of folks filling up on toast and butter, coffee and a couple laughs before everyone went to work, and then came right back to the same place after work. From chicken and BBQs to spaghetti for dinner, there was

We will stay strong, we will love, we will respect and we will enjoy ours lives living happy in her memory. We will forever be thankful to have been able to have had such an amazing person in our lives. Debbie is predeceased by her mother and father, Howard (“Hop”) and Elaine (King) Graham; brothers Jed, Doug and Billy Graham; her sister Barbara (Graham) Simpson; Kevin J. Simpson Sr. (and his significant other).

Sending virtual love to local elderly

State Police guidelines for response

PLATTSBURGH | With a little extra time on their hands, local kids can now spread virtual hugs and cheer to patients at Meadowbrook Healthcare. The Plattsburgh nursing home and rehabilitation center has been locked down since March 9, leaving many patients missing their loved ones more than usual. To help bring them a little extra cheer, staff have launched the #BigHugs Project, allowing kids to send messages of love, positivity and kindness to the most at-risk population during the uncertain times. With adult supervision, kids can create pictures, videos or snap pictures of drawings and share those messages to Meadowbrook Healthcare’s Facebook page with the hashtag #BigHugs. Once tagged, staff will share them with residents and patients. For more information contact Geddes at sgeddes@meadowbrookhealth.com or 518-563-5440. ■

Kiwanis Noon Club Announces Music Scholarship

ALBANY | The annual spring burn ban went into effect Monday, March 16, for all New York counties. Due to normally warm spring-time temperatures and lack of snow cover, the burning of residential brush and yard debris is outlawed until deemed safe to do so. The burning of trash and leaves is never allowed in New York regardless of the time of year. Since instituting this ban, in 2009, spring wildfires have decreased by more than 40 percent. ■

WINTER SPORTS OFFICIALLY ENDED

By Keith Lobdell SPORTS EDITOR

PLATTSBURGH | It’s the decision no one wanted to make or see made, but the one that had to be. T h e N e w Yo r k S t a t e Public High School Athletic Association officially canceled the remainder of the winter sports season, meaning a premature end to the boys hockey; boys and girls bowling; and boys and girls basketball seasons. “It is w it h g reat disap p oi nt ment t hat we ma ke the decision to cancel the remaining winter championship events,” said Dr. Robert Zayas, NYSPHSAA Executive Director. “We certainly sympathize for the students who are being impacted by this crisis but at this time they deser ve honest y f rom the leadership of our association.” “Robert and the committee had to make a very tough decision, that is for sure,” said Section VII executive director Matthew Walentuk. “It’s disappointing but with what we are faced with, we couldn’t move on.” T he ca ncellat ion mea nt the end of the season for t he Sect ion V II g irls a nd boys bowling teams, which included team champions Beekmantown — who swept the sectional bowling titles ­­— along with composite bowlers AuSable Valley’s Logan Martineau, Troy McDonald and Josh Eaton; Northeastern C l i nto n’s G a b e S i s c o; Ticonderoga’s Axel Dedrick and Peru’s James Williams on the boys side and Peru’s Kathryn Bowman, Leita Ciolek, Sarah Williams and Karissa Poupore; AuSable Valley’s Katelynn Miller and Ticonderoga’s Jade Frasier in girls. It also brought an end to the season’s of Section VII/ Class B basketball champions Nor t hea ster n C l i nton (girls) and Saranac (boys), along with Section VII/Class D champions Bolton (girls) and Schroon Lake (boys). In Section II, the North Warren (Class D) and Lake George (Class C) boys basketball teams were also alive in state regional play, with the Cougars and Wildcats scheduled to play for a trip to the final four. “I am very proud of them,” said Saranac boys basketball coach Mike Recore. “They have worked extremely hard and out in a lot of time and effort. We had a strong season beating some quality teams and our four losses were all against good opponents. Beating Mekeel (Christian) was a highlight and something that gave the team that boost of we can beat anyone, but watching them win the sectional title, which was their first big goal for the season, was the highlight of the season for me.” “Knowing where it looked like this was going, I was mentally prepared for this,” said Schroon Lake boys basketball coach Lee Silvernail. “I do like that they are working on a way to recognize all the teams who are still alive, there was a lot of hard work that went in over the past four years. They had a great season, but what they didn’t have was the chance to prove what they were capable of at the state level, and that hurts.” ■

‘I have no regrets:’ Section VII athletes address end of season

A host of Section VII athletes found their seasons over without the conclusion they were hoping for as NYSPHSAA announced the cancelation of the winter sports championships March 23 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, including the Schroon Lake boys varsity basketball team, Saranac boys varsity basketball team, Northeastern Clinton girls varsity basketball team, Bolton girls basketball team, Beekmantown boys and girls varsity bowling teams, and the Section VII boys and girls composite bowling teams.

PLATTSBURGH | “I was trying to prepare myself because we all knew it was coming, but when you see it in writing, it hits you a little different.” That is what Northeastern Clinton senior point guard Kya McComb said when she saw the news break online that the 2020 winter sports championships were canceled in the state of New York. “It stinks knowing the season has been taken away from us and not having the chance to complete it and see what we could have done,” added McComb, who helped lead the Cougars to their third straight Section VII/Class B girls basketball title as the team was hoping to make the state final four for the second time in those three seasons. McComb, who made it onto the 1,000 career point list this season, saw an unexpected end to her senior season along with teammates Brinley LaFountain and Taylor Goodrow. “This team was probably one of the closest teams I have ever been on,” said McComb. “With one exception, we all live next to each other and have our inside jokes. It’s enjoyable to go to practice because you get to be with your nine best friends and playing a fun sport.” McComb added being in practice, along with winning the sectional title, was the highlight of her season. “It was always fun and now, I look at it and think I probably should not have taken any of those practices for granted because now, there are no more,” she said. “You should play like every moment is your last and enjoy the time you have to play. “I certainly can say I have done that.”

‘SO MANY MEMORIES’

At the other end of Section VII, the Schroon Lake varsity boys basketball team was getting

ready for a showdown with Section II’s North Warren when senior Andrew Pelkey saw his coach, Lee Silvernail, walk into the gym. “I could tell the moment I saw coach something was not right,” said Pelkey of the moment Silvernail told his team the rest of the season was postponed and, most likely, going to be canceled. “It’s devastating,” said Pelkey. “It has been that way since we heard the game was postponed and this just hammers it home. I understand what it going on, but it’s rough.” Pelkey said he and his teammates — which included fellow seniors Cian Bresnahan, Collin Bresnahan, Derrick Loiselle, Mike Foote and Bryant Mieras — said he would leave the basketball court with “so many memories to look back on.” “It’s been a special year and we set ourselves up to be in the position we were in,” added Pelkey. “Since the first practice, we wanted to put ourselves here. We did all the dirty work in the summer and fall and we were focused and determined going into sectionals that we were going to win it.” Pelkey added the final game of the regular season, where he set the Section VII all-time scoring record, was a moment he would remember because of who was in attendance. “The entire week building up to it was cool, but getting to meet Dan Munson (the man Pelkey passed) and having the chance to talk with him about basketball and hearing he was following me through the playoffs was very special,” he said.

‘IT REALLY SUCKS’

Saranac senior Connor Recore had the same reaction many young men and women had learning the news their seasons were over. “It really sucks because we worked to get the chance to prove ourselves as one of the best teams in the state,” said Recore, the CVAC co-MVP.

“I have definitely been reflecting on the season we had since we found out the games were postponed, because I think we all had a feeling this was going to happen,” Recore continued. “It was a pretty good season. The feeling of winning a sectional title in basketball was something that was sweet for our whole team.” Recore said the current Chiefs roster has been playing together since youth leagues as sixth graders, with a roster that includes seniors Recore, Jared Duquette, Sam Carter, Nick Liberty, Brady Hebert, Cogan Johnston and Shey Manor. Along with the title, Recore added the team had an off the court experience he will always look back on fondly. “We adopted a kid as a team for Christmas and we all went out shopping for the child,” Recore said. “Everyone pitched in an it was a great experience for the whole team.”

‘NO REGRETS’

While the premature ending of the season will continue to hurt, AuSable Valley senior bowler Logan Martineau said he was proud of having a solid varsity career. “I have no regrets looking back — I accomplished everything I could have every wanted to,” said Martineau, who was part of the Patriots NYSPHSAA state championship team. “I was lucky to be on a team where all five of us were great bowlers who I had the chance to work with an learn from, and I think that is why I had the high school success I did. Troy McDonald (another AVCS senior along with Katelynn Miller and Cassidy DeMeter) was my best friends through all of this.” Much like everyone else, Martineau did his best to keep perspective on the situation. “I can see where all this is coming from and how bad this is, but its an awful hit to the athletes,” he said. “It’s tough when the senior year is the one that gets canceled.” ■

Hikers urged to use caution Outdoors activity good, if limited By Tim Rowland STAFF WRITER

ELIZABETHTOWN | With social distancing the order of the day, getting out for a hike in the wilderness might seem just the ticket. But some local officials are saying, not so fast. Group hikes, traveling significant distances to get to a trailhead or taking on hikes that involve any degree of risk are being discouraged. “The Town of Keene asks that you please hike responsibly and follow the guidelines for containing the spread of the coronavirus,” Supervisor Joe Pete Wilson said in a media release. Those guidelines are as follows: 1. Hike locally. Stay home and hike the offbeat trails that won’t be crowded. 2. Don’t travel to hike. Keene has limited EMS and hospital infrastructure. Any extra demand stresses the system. 3. If you hike anywhere, practice social distancing and handwashing. Stay healthy and active. “Thank you for thinking of our small town when you decide to stay home and enjoy a local hike,” he added. Chris Maron, executive director of Champlain Area Trails based in Westport, said his organization had canceled a popular birding hike that had been planned for the last weekend out of an abundance of caution. But he said that doesn’t mean people need to stay indoors. “Things look a lot different than they did a week ago, but here is some good news: Our hiking trails are open for everyone to enjoy,” he said in a message to hikers. “Two things that we know for certain are the importance of connecting with nature and enjoying the peace and solace of the outdoors.” Maron said that the 60 miles of local CATS hiking trails “are a safe place to boost and maintain your mental attitude and physical strength.” The Adirondack Mountain Club, whose facilities have

Champlain Area Trails canceled its popular spring birding hike, but says individual or family hikes on its 60 miles of trails are good for body and spirit. Photo by Tim Rowland closed because of the coronavirus crisis, offered a statement, urging members and supporters to stay at home. The overall message is that hiking is still a healthy pursuit, but only when done alone or with household members. “Maintain six feet of distance from others. If you have to go out in public for an essential activity like grocery shopping, keep six feet of distance between yourself and others. If you go outdoors to exercise, limit it to solitary activities,” said Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo told New Yorkers last week. Still, people were coming into Keene Valley to hike. “Residents have been reporting to me that there are lots of out of state plates on Market Street and at other trail heads,” Wilson said. Rangers reported on social media that the Catskills and other

were going to be met,” Group Administrator John Gordon said. “The response has been overwhelming, but I have been collaborating with a volunteer team that includes representatives from community organizations. We are adapting quickly to the challenges, and making necessary adjustments.”

GAP CLOSURE STILL NEEDED;

destinations closer to urban centers were even more crowded. Over the weekend a search involving a number of first responders was carried out for a missing hiker who had embarked on a multi-summit hike. She was eventually found on a trail and hiked out under her own power. “For those who aim to get outside, please be mindful that forest rangers and other first responders are faced with an enormous public safety concern right now and should not have resources taxed by ill-advised adventure,” said ADK Executive Director Michael Barrett in a statement. Officials noted it’s not an ideal time for hiking anyway, particularly in the higher elevations with the infamous Adirondack mud season on the horizon. ■

SERVICE COVERAGE LACKING Senator Betty Little, Assemblyman Billy Jones and Assemblyman Dan Stec all noted at the region-wide chamber-facilitated legislative breakfast late in February that 100 percent broadband coverage does not exist in New York State—they say there are still service gaps in the North Country.

Some service providers have offered free internet to students now learning from home during this time as a result of school closures, while Peru Free Library has encouraged residents to park in the library’s lot to catch a signal. How will the local digital landscape evolve during this time? Send thoughts, ideas and tips to alina@ suncommunitynews.com. ■
