Essex County Sheriff Richard Cutting speaks to members of the Essex County Board of Supervisors and those in a packed Old County Courthouse March 18 about the issues and concerns he had with the SAFE Act, New York State’s new gun control law which has been hotly debated throughout the state. The county became the 50th out of 62 in the state to pass legislation in opposition to the law.

Moriah sweeps youth tourney PAGE 9

TROY — The AuSable Valley Lady Patriots came back against Bishop Kearney twice in the Class C NYSPHSAA semifinals March 16 at Hudson Valley Community College.

They needed a third.

Meghan Strong scored six of her team-high 14 points in the third quarter to turn a 28-21 deficit into a lead midway through the third quarter against the Lady Kings.

It was the Kings that would

own the final eight minutes of play, outscoring the Patriots 15-2 and, ending their season in the Final Four with a 56-41 defeat.

“We talked at halftime about needing to get that first run of the second half and get back into the game,” head coach Roger Long said. “They exerted a lot of energy in that third period to get back into it, and I think that showed in the fourth.”

The Patriots connected on only one of 14 from the field in the last quarter, while 4-of-7 from the field and 7-of-11 from

the free throw line. Overall, the Lady Kings went to the line 25 times, while AuSable Valley only got two attempts in the first from Taylor Saltus.

As expected, the Kings used their height advantage, outscoring the Patriots 30-12 in the paint, led by Emamuella Edoka’s 14 points.

However, it was a pair of threes from the 6’2” center that hurt AuSable going into halftime.

“We hit a three right before half to close the gap, and she came down and answered on the other end,” Long said.

The Kings grabbed 13 offensive rebounds, while the Patriots held their own with 11 offensive boards and 27 overall rebounds to Bishop-Kearney’s 34.

“We put a zone defense in this week, and I was concerned because when you are in zone you can have issues with boxing out at times,” Long said. “I knew that they were going to come out and try to trap our guards, so we set our screens up high and tried to free up Meghan for one-on-one matchups. Our runners just did not fall.”

ELIZABETHTOWN — Essex County residents packed the Old Essex County Courthouse March 18 as the Board of Supervisors voted to seek a repeal of the highly debated New York SAFE Act. Roughly 90 people packed into the meeting facility, filling the floor and balcony to address the board on its resolution to repeal the gun control law known as the SAFE Act before it made the decision to move forward with the resolution put forth by the SAFE Act Task Force one week earlier.

Essex County Sheriff Richard Cutting first addressed the board and audience over concerns and issues he had with the law as enacted by the state Jan. 15.

"Guns have two enemies, rust and politicians," Cutting said. "The makers of this law really don't understand weapons and did not look for people who did."

Cutting referred to a pair of similar-caliber rifles that were both not defined and defined as an assault weapon.

"They carry the same ammunition. They have the same ballistics. They both do the same thing," Cutting said. "The only difference in these weapons are looks. We are scared by a black gun that looks menacing."

Cutting also said that the law enforcement exemption was not carried over with the new law, which concerns him.

Keene Central Science Slam delivers a night with all the elements

By Katherine Clark

katherine@denpubs.com K E E N E — Vo l c a n o e s , time machines, a life size model of the human body and models of centrifugal force were some of the many things demonstrated for visitors at Keene Central School’s Science Slam March 8.

The event was a platform for over 60 students and 20 community groups to hold

exhibits and open up dialogue with visitors about different and fun avenues of science.

“Really, the goal of this event is just to get kids excited about science,” organizer Jen Kazmierczak said. “It’s not your typical science fair.”

The exhibits were put in place by parents, teachers and community members interested in bringing science alive for the students.

Kazmierczak said it was just an idea that grew rapidly.

“As soon as we suggested it, the teachers got engaged, the principal supported it and we just ran with it and we couldn’t believed the amount of enthusiasm we got,” Kazmierczak said.

Visitors were welcomed in the entryway with projects from Kindergarten through the third grade students.

Kindergartener John Sanpierto had an exploding volcano.

“Fill the bottle with a little food coloring, vinegar until its up as high as you want it and detergent makes it explode a little bit,” Sanpierto said.

People’s choice winners were awarded at the end of the presentations. These categories were judged by volunteers from the community who have an interest in promoting science and math in the school.

“Any attendee was able to fill out a ballot for their favorite projects/displays and turn it in before leaving the event,” Kazmierczak said.

The auditorium hosted most of the community set-

up with exhibits from representatives from the Cornell Cooperative, the Wild Center, the Adirondack Museum and more.

Kazmierczak said the idea to expand the Science Slam to community members emerged after last year ’s event.

“The Science Slam planning team brainstormed a list of outside organizations we thought would be a good fit for our event.,” Kazmierczak said. “We contacted them and were pleased at the overwhelming response to our request. We also had a few organizations that contacted us after they heard about our event. This year we had many return organizations, and some new ones too, which was great.”

Kazmierczak, who studied engineering and has worked in a variety of engineering and environmental/safety regulatory positions throughout her career, said she hoped science could be influential to the students.

“I believe science is important for kids, because it encourages them to be curious, ask questions and test out their ideas, Kazmierczak said. “This teaches them problem solving and critical thinking, which they will use throughout their lives.”

"There could be a massive environmental issue that we do not want to fix," Manning said. "There could always be something that makes it fall through."

Along with the contract with Essex County, Center for Specialty Care recently signed a contract with Washington County to take over the operations at the Pleasant Valley Nursing Home.

ast year I wrote about the writer ’s retreat that Mary Beth Coudal led at Skenewood, the beautiful and historic Jones family property on Dudley Road. For those interested in Mary Beth’s connection to Westport, she is married to the actor John Christopher Jones, which makes her a sister-in-law of Shami Jones McCormick, the artistic director of the Depot Theatre.

You and your kids may know Mary Beth from her past role in running the Depot Theatre Apprentice Program.

If so, then you’re aware of her strong creative energy and focus. Her main interest is writing, and in addition to writing articles that have run in The New York Times, Salon.com, and Self magazine, she now owns and operates Writer ’s Boot Camp East, where she works on helping other writers sharpen their craft. The retreat she led last year was the first at Skenewood—you can see videos at YouTube (just search for Skenewood writers).

Mary Beth will be back at Skenewood for another three day writer ’s retreat May 16-19. She’s advertising this in the city, but for local writers who wish to

commute there’s also an option to attend during the day, with a reduced rate that includes meals. By the end of the weekend, you’ll have a publishable work, great memories, and new friends who share your love of writing. For information, call Mary Beth at 646-678-0832 or visit her web site, bootcamp4writers.com, where you can also register for the retreat or send Mary Beth an email.

Did you see the news stories about how Champlain Area Trails (CATS) has recently purchased 87 acres in Westport from Sandy Lewis? The beautiful tract of land (the former Evens farm) sits between the Lakeshore Road and Angier Hill Road, and this means it will be preserved as a vital connection for wildlife between the Split Rock Wild Forest and the Coon Mountain Nature Preserve.

And the Boquet River Association (BRASS) has announced that Westport resident Daphne Hallowell has joined their board. Congratulations to BRASS— they’re lucky to have her. I was very happy to see an email from them in the inbox for the column. If you have something you’d like to see here, please do likewise.

Enjoy and have a great week.

Last week I was in Santa Monica, California and went to a big farmers market.

There were mushroom growers, an oyster and mussel farmer, a guy selling artichokes as large as bowling balls and lots of citrus farmers, all of whom had free samples. It’s coming into prime citrus season and the wide ranging sweet flavors drew crowds, all trying the samples and dripping juice everywhere. There were also a few prepared food stands, one of which offered ice cream. One of their flavors (and I’m not kidding) is salted caramel garlic with sesame seed milk. The kooky California stereotype is alive and well, and only costs $4 a scoop.

Ziti fundraiser set for woman battling cancer

By Katherine Clark

katherine@denpubs.com LEWIS — Friends of Mineville resident Lorraine Bergeron are holding a special baked ziti dinner fundraiser for her with raffles and silent auctions from 4 to 8 p.m. on March 30 at the Lewis Fire Department, 18 Fire House Lane.

Just after Thanksgiving, Bergeron started going to the doctors for tests and biopsies and just before Christmas she was diagnosed with invasive ductal carcinoma, or stage three breast cancer.

“She has to go through eight treatments over 16 weeks,” said friend Jessica Podmore.

“Right now she’s half way through.”

Bergeron is currently undergoing four months of chemotherapy at Charles Wood Cancer Center in Glens Falls. When she goes to treatment, she and Podmore stay at a friend’s home in Glens Falls.

Podmore said the two travel to Glens Falls at least once a week. After chemotherapy is completed Bergeron, will undergo surgery to remove cancerous cells.

After surgery, she will have

to undergo radiation for five days a week for six weeks.

Though insurance covers Bergeron’s medical expenses, she has had to stop working a Wise Guys Sports Bar & Grill in Lake Placid, where she has worked for four years. Her doctor predicts she will remain unable to work for at least a year.

“The fundraiser will help pay for a mixture of everything. She can’t work and the travel to Glens Falls every week gets pricey,” said Podmore. “We’re all more like family than friends. We want to do this for her.”

The event has been organized by Bergeron’s friends: Podmore, Laura Borden Pond and Cindy Lawson.

The dinner will include Chinese and silent auctions and raffles with a variety of different baskets with candles, garden supplies, wine and cheese, bath products and more. Gift certificates to various restaurants and stores in the area will also be available.

The dinner will cost $10 per person. For more information, call Podmore at 532-0059 or to submit a donation send it to Lorraine Bergeron, P.O. Box 365, Mineville, NY 12956.

Gag order doesn’t serve the public good

T

his last Friday, Mark Streb, an aide of Gov. Andrew Cuomo visited the Warren County Board of Supervisors to present a proclamation honoring Warren County on the 200th anniversary of its founding.

Streb stood up to the microphone and read the bicentennial proclamation. Minutes later, a Denton editor approached him, asking whether he had chatted with Cuomo before the trip to Queensbury, whether the governor had any personal message, and when the aide last saw the governor.

Streb declined to answer any of the questions, although they were innocuous — and even though the governor would only gain good publicity from forthright answers.

The aide’s response was not only frustrating, but it indicated a troubling trend in the Cuomo administration that deserves our attention.

This incident is the latest in a series of situations demonstrating that Cuomo seeks total control information that reaches the public — and that government employees are fearful of their political bosses.

Since the early years of the Pataki administration, government employees have been instructed to re-route press inquiries to departmental media representatives who concoct answers.

Skilled reporters, however, don’t want second- or third-hand information contrived by public relations employees whose chief objective is to make their bosses look good. Responsible reporters, adhering to a principle of informing the public, seek facts from sources with first-hand knowledge of a situation or topic.

Under previous administrations — of George Pataki, Eliot Spitzer and David Paterson — state officials have looked the other way when government employees have talked with the press.

Not so with the Cuomo cadre.

State Department of Transportation engineer Mike Fayette, who was charged with overseeing state roads and infrastructure in Essex County, talked to a reporter last autumn about the department’s response to Hurricane Irene.

It was reportedly innocuous, complimentary remarks made to reporter Mike Lynch of the Adirondack Daily Enterprise.

Nevertheless, Fayette was served with a disciplinary notice because DOT Commissioner Joan McDonald had wanted to make the comment herself. Fayette was notified he was fired from his post. Then when he protested the state’s action, he was accused of insubordina-

tion, misconduct and incompetence.

Fayette later retired rather than fight the charges, ending early a 30-year dedicated career.

The state’s actions against Fayette were not only reprehensible, but they demonstrate a substantial abuse of power on behalf of our state’s executive branch.

Yet the Fayette case is only the tip of the iceberg concerning Cuomo’s throttlehold on information to which the public should have access.

Not only are government employees not talking because they fear for their jobs, but the state government spokespeople — who have less knowledge and expertise than their on-the-job peers — have been routinely ignoring or procrastinating on answering media inquiries.

When these spokespeople do return calls, they aren’t fully informed on the situation at hand, they don’t fully answer the questions asked, or they rely on a lot of “spin” rather than facts.

We at Denton Publications have experienced the above problems, and reporters across the state have also.

Another example of Cuomo excluding the public inappropriately from governmental processes was how he invoked a “Message of Necessity” to rush the SAFE Act gun control bill through the state Legislature without allowing our elected representatives nor the public appropriate time to consider the measures.

Our government should be both responsive and responsible to the people. Citizens should be armed with accurate information so they can hold government leaders accountable for their actions.

To this end, Governor Cuomo should follow the example of his father, Mario Cuomo — who when in power, had no fears about public access to information.

It’s time for Gov. Andrew Cuomo to follow in the footsteps of his father and loosen his grip on the flow of information.

We at Denton Publications believe that government should work for us and be open and forthright with the facts. Information about government operations and activities should not be restricted merely to a laundered version of the facts — or no information at all.

We believe those in power should allow, with minimum restrictions, government employees to communicate freely with the media. It’s a hallmark of democracy.

Optimism is a gift

I

worry at times about using this column too often to complain about a variety of topics that, seem to me, have our country going in the wrong direction. In expressing an opinion, my goal is to offer an issue of concern and provide an optimistic alternative.

Optimism, like sunlight, creates growth. Americans have always thrived on an optimistic vision of our future. No matter what disappointments, failures or challenges we faced in the past, we knew that if we work hard, stay focused and press forward we can turn the tide for the better. It’s this very sense of American optimism that attracts so many to our shores. It’s the one intangible asset that Americans sometimes take for granted.

Our past is full of failures, but history confirms that from our perseverance we’ve grown from the opportunity and found a constructive way to use the failure to better our nation.

Perseverance takes discipline and with a never-say-die attitude, our nation and her people have found creative ways to correct the errors, and chart a course that has made us the envy of the world. With optimism, citizens must recognize that it’s within their reach to accomplish anything they choose. For more than 200 years, American immigrants wanted nothing more than the freedom to pursue their dreams and faith and make a better life for their children and themselves.

With that thought in mind, I was surprised last week when Scott Rasmussen, the man behind the Rasmussen Surveys, warned us in his weekly column to beware of the new elites who are rewriting the rule book, so that special privilege takes the place of hard work.

“The United States is supposed to be a land of opportunity where everyone can pursue their dreams,” he wrote. “But those on top today are busy rewriting the rules to limit entry into their club.”

Rasmussen quotes Megan McArdle, who calls them the new mandarins and they think they know what’s best for the rest of us. As a pollster who constantly has his finger on the pulse of the population, Rasmussen is in a position to foresee changes in public opinion that foretell a shift in public attitude.

As Americans, we’ve always had an independent spirit. We need leaders who share those views, leaders who encourage optimism, hard Dan Alexander work and farThoughts from reaching Behind the Pressline dreams. If we ever reach the point where we give up our dreams and allow others to dictate our future, we will have relinquished the very core of our being and the concept that our nation was built upon.

In Patrick Henry’s speech in 1775 in front of patriots like George Washington and Thomas Jefferson, he convinced the Virginia House of Burgesses to pass a resolution to deliver Virginia troops to join the Revolutionary War when he said, “Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!”

The vision for this nation and the great experiment in freedom was unique in that era. One needs to understand and appreciate how truly revolutionary this bold move was and continues to be even in this age.

We must constantly be on guard to insure that we never allow our freedoms to be eroded. Our Forefathers understood what they were fighting for and we must never allow that fiery, independent spirit to be extinguished. As we’ve benefited from the generations that came before us, we too must honor the commitment to liberty that we owe to those who come long after us. Our lineage is their inheritance and the union we secure today will preserve the promise and the optimism they will enjoy for generations to come.

We need to look no further than the mirror when we ask ourselves, “Will the next generation be better off than we are today?“ If the answer is no, then we’ve got work to do and we better get down now while the opportunity still exists.

SAFE Act Continued from page 1

Thanks for work done To the Valley News: Since I am a new resident of Elizabethtown, I thought I would stop by the town hall and take part in the Supervisor ’s coffee hour on Friday morning. I was warmly greeted and enjoyed the hospitality of April and Supervisor Margaret Bartley.

What caught my eye was the new comprehensive plan that was displayed in the lobby. These architectural drawings are quite impressive. A lot of thought and input from the town’s people went into the design. You can still add your comments and suggests. Several suggestions that have recently been made will enhance the design and all input is welcomed.

Thanks to Supervisor Margaret Bartley, the Comprehensive Plan Committee, and all the local folks who put this together it is quite an undertaking. The plan is a wonderful vision for the future of Elizabethtown. If you have not seen it, stop by the Town Hall and take a look.

Mary McGowan Elizabethtown

‘Gall’ and ‘chutzpah’ To the Valley News: I’ve struggled to find the right word, but I suppose it has to be “gall.” It’s in the context of describing the costly Otis Bridge drama, and the outrage of Harry Gough.

Harry and Elizabethtown Supervisor, Margaret Bartley, want credit for donating dirt to the E’town golf course, which came from the base of the new Otis Lane. The new Otis Lane was paid for by the taxpayers of Essex County to replace part of the original Otis Lane. Roughly 500 feet of the original Otis Lane will become the private driveway of Margaret and Harry. It took 8 years of protest and litigation from them to cause this to happen.

Harry’s outrage stems from my incorrect statement regarding the current ownership of the new Otis Lane. I had stated the Town owned the new road, but looking back at the Oct. 2010 original contract I see that the County has the new road until the bridge and road construction are complete.

Then the new road will be transferred to the Town, but only if “the Town of Elizabethtown agrees to the abandonment and closure of the present Otis Lane.” The old road will then become Margaret & Harry’s private driveway. Sweet!

Margaret and Harry signed the contract that acknowledges the old Otis Lane is “ a town road known as Otis Lane.”

Harry is determined that the Town never owned the old road, however, the taxpayers have maintained it for the last 99 years as a Town road.

Harry also states a 50’ wide new road is needed to facilitate logging. I don’t believe that to be true, but even if it were I‘d think simply widening the old road would be cheaper for the County taxpayers.

So, to summarize, the County taxpayers get hosed big time by a more expensive bridge ( than in 2005); expensive litigation; an expensive new road; and an expensive relocation of the old lead painted bridge to Westport. Margaret & Harry get a nicely maintained private drive; plus they want kudos for giving County dirt to the E’town golf course, and providing us with a maintenance nightmare for the fairgrounds, requiring County tax dollar ’s that we don’t have.

On second thought, maybe “chutzpah” is the right word?

Ken Fenimore, Elizabethtown

Proves it’s time To the Valley News: The recent comments concerning the heating system in the County Jail caps off the litany of problems that have plagued the project management by the County Supervisors. First, it took decades to summon the fortitude to build a new jail after the state declared the old one functionally moribund.

Then they hired an architect that filed for bankruptcy before completion. The jail had a drop-dead of October, then November, then December, and then August. No definite date was set for the jail’s opening because many details hadn’t been included in the original plans. Now the rugs are wearing out. A generator that serves the jail failed, and a second generator is being considered. The heating system worked improperly from the first day. We are now told the (heat) delivery system is actually designed for a southern clime and we have cold weather. So we will study the heating system with $1.2 million leftover funds(?) from the County Jail project account.

So our Supervisors have learned from their mistakes? This is shown by how well we are progressing on our new radio system. A $2.4 million contract was let with Motorola for a system that was not expandable, so now it has to be increased for one that is. They purchased $2.5 million worth of radios, but have no idea how they will be installed. They are about $500,000 over their target right now, which includes the $1.2 million for the local radios which was not included in the original plan. We are paying $500,000 to a private lawyer because paperwork takes a great deal of time to prepare and to file. (Why do we have a County Lawyer?) We are at $17 million and climbing.

Doesn’t someone out there think it is time we went to a County Legislature?

George King Westport

"If my officers walk onto a school property right now, they are in violation of the law because those exemptions were not carried over," he said. "We have been assured that this will be changed, but we do not know when."

Cutting said he was in favor of several aspects of the law, including Marks Law, which increases penalties for the shooting death of a firefighter or first responder.

"These people are out there working for you and protecting you, and they deserve this kind of protection," he said.

Don Sage, president of the Schroon Lake Fish and Game Club, said he felt the county should go further with their resolution.

"There are counties that have said they will not spend any money to enforce the law and I would encourage the county to do the same and commit that you will not spend any money on this law," Sage said. "You should not spend anything on this stupid law. There has to be a way to pick on the criminals than pick on the law-abiding criminals."

Bruno Mazzotte of Moriah Center said that state residents cannot buy many of the rifles that are now made.

"The SAFE Act is going to stop New York residents from buying 75 percent of the weapons that have been made in the last 100 years," Mazzotte. "The politicians are doing everything they can to prevent us from our Constitutional freedoms. Do not let them."

"I would like to let Gov. Cuomo and others know that we love our children as much as they do, and we are not criminals," Gary Raikiewicz of Jay said.

"Parts of the SAFE Act would make us criminals as well, and I do not know how many people in Essex County will even comply to it."

Raikiewicz also said he would be in favor of armed guards in schools.

"Is our money in the bank more important than our children," he asked. "We guard our money with guns, but not our children."

"Unfortunately, this is becoming an upstate and downstate issue and that is unfortunate," former Essex Supervisor Ron Jackson said. "Not everything in there is bad, but the way that it was passed was bad. If they had gone through the proper procedures and been vetted, like you did, we would have a very different law."

Keene resident Lorraine Duvall claimed the county had done the same thing that the state had done in working on a resolution without what she felt was due process.

"You gave less than a week for residents to look at it," Duvall said. "The timing with this resolution is similar to the timing of the New York state law. We feel that the time was not there to get the input of all Essex County residents."

Duvall also presented a resolution to the county, asking them to table the current amendment and replace it with one calling for amendment, not repeal.

"We ask that the county revise their resolution to provide a resolution to amend

Lorraine Duvall of Keene asked supervisors to table the SAFE Act repeal resolution, asking instead for a resolution of the amendment.

rather than repeal the law," Duvall said. "Talk about different aspects of the law, not just one aspect."

"They did more due diligence than what they served up down in Albany," John Sharkey of Ticonderoga countered. "I take exception to those who said not enough time was put into this. It was more time than the governor ever gave to this in Albany."

"Let' do something that prevents the United States from being ranked as the country that has the most people in prison and the most deaths from firearms," Harrison Caner of Keene said. "Let's do something that cuts down on the availability of these multipleshot machine guns."

Pat McBride of Ticonderoga said that he was tired of the state "nanny-ing" its residents.

Win Belanger of Willsboro said that he has sold many of his weapons or given them away because of the new law.

"So you do not need to come to my house anymore because I only have a oneround thing. It's called a bazooka," Belanger joked.

"We need a law. We do not need this law. The person who is going to break into my house, come into my school or enter a military base, we are not going to stop them with this law."

Belanger is also a staffer of State Assemblyman Dan Stec, who has fought against the SAFE Act and has a petition on his Facebook Page to repeal the law.

"Our legislators that work for us did not support this," said Belanger, referring to Stec along with Assemblywoman Janet Duprey and Sen. Betty Little.

Monique Weston of Keene said she asked a hunter about the SAFE Act who told her that they had no objections to it.

"I hate to see people going forth and saying that everything in this law violates the Second Amendment," she said. "I think that there are some terrible things in the law and I think that there are some good things. Ultimately, I would like to see this law proved and then amended."

"I feel that this conversation is very important," Michael Rice of Crown Point said. "When we took our son to the pediatrician, they asked if we had guns in the home. I asked them why and they said it was a psychological question. I have a degree in psychology, and it was not a psychological question; it was a personal question that infringed on my rights."

After public comment, Board Chairman Randy Douglas then asked mem-

bers of the board if they wished to comment.

"This resolution was not done with haste, and it was not done last night," said Chesterfield Supervisor Gerald Morrow, who chaired the SAFE Act Task Force.

"The resolution calls for the repeal because it needs to be re-started. There are some things I agree with in this, but not in this form. I will go on record as saying I will not abide by this."

"I think that this was an excellent piece of work that went into this resolution," Lewis Supervisor David Blades said.

"We had a big task and we took it very seriously," Elizabethtown Supervisor Margaret Bartley said. "If we had the power to do away with this law, we would do away with all of the unfunded state mandates that cripple local government. I hope that this resolution will include a list of recommendations that the sheriff has given to us."

"I have four grandchildren under the age of seven that live within 25 miles of Newtown, and it has affected them," Westport Supervisor Dan Connell said. "I will vote in a second to amend this. I will not vote to repeal this. If we start back at zero, then nothing is going to happen."

"What was in my mind is doing what I felt was right for the people, and I am going to support the repeal," Keene Supervisor Bill Ferebee said. "I do hope that this goes back and is looked at because I do feel this needs attention."

"My vote is based upon a poorly drafted piece of legislation that was given little thought or evaluation," North Elba Supervisor Roby Politi said. "I believe this law needs to be re-drafted and at this time I will only support a repeal of the law."

"This is one that we have been discussing for the last several weeks," Minerva Supervisor Sue Montgomery Corey. "I was the only member of my town board to vote against the repeal of the SAFE Act because I would prefer amendment. My board has asked that I recognize their vote and support the repeal and I am going to honor that and vote to repeal."

"I do not think that it is so much about the content as it is about the process in the way that this bill was passed," Tom Scozzafava said. "The state passed a law that towns have to put their agenda's online to let people know what is going on and then the state does this with no public notice or public hearing."

"This comes down to two basic principles," North

Hudson Supervisor Ronald Moore said." One is the Second Amendment and the other is the process of democracy."

"Here, we didn't have the process," Crown Point Supervisor Charles Harrington. "What we have here is what I call pasty pudding, and pasty pudding always gets poured out."

"I have not had anyone ask me not to repeal this and I have talked to State Police, veterans, teachers and others speak to me about this," Schroon Supervisor Michael Marnell said. "I have to vote to repeal this because it needs changes."

"I support the repeal because this law was not observed by the democratic process and it does not do anything to curb the violence that we are talking about," Ticonderoga Supervisor Deb Malaney said. "I also think that we should help to be part of the solution and not the problem."

"I think that this is a matter of the camel getting his nose under the tent," Newcomb Supervisor George Canon said. "We cannot let this process go downhill like this, and I will vote to repeal this."

"I believe that the Second Amendment is being infringed upon and I believe that this law should be repealed because there were to many rules and regulations that were broken during this entire process," St. Armand Supervisor Charles Whitson Jr. said.

"I have shot nothing more than a BB gun," Douglas said. "There is no one in this room that has more respect for Gov. Cuomo more than I do. To vote to repeal the SAFE Act as it is currently written, I will do so because I believe that there was no public input and that it is another unfunded mandate. I honestly feel that this should go back to the governor and the state Legislature to be re-written with public input."

Sharon Boisen of Essex did not comment, while Randy Preston of Wilmington was absent from the meeting.

Ed Hatch waited to speak until he offered a table of the resolution.

"This is definitely an upstate-downstate argument," Hatch said. "The only way this will be repealed is in the courts. I really believe that this law has to be addressed by lobbying like we have in the past."

The board did not approve the motion to table and then voted to pass the resolution by a 2,552-268 margin (weighted voting), with Connell and Hatch voting against the resolution.

In passing their resolution, Essex County became the 50th county in New York state to pass a resolution against the SAFE Act. Albany, Broome and Sullivan counties have proposed resolutions against the law, while lawmakers in Tompkins County were planning to introduce a similar resolution March 19.

Counties that have not undertaken SAFE Act legislation include Westchester, Bronx, New York, Richmond, Kings, Queens, Nassau and Suffolk.

The board also voted to oppose the proposed state legislation r equiring gun owners to obtain liability insurance.

Probation chief retires after 32 years

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com ELIZABETHTOWN — Members of the Essex County Public Safety Committee took time to say goodbye to a retiring department head at its March 11 meeting.

Scott McDonald recently announced that he would be stepping down as the County Probation Office Director effective March 22.

"I started here in 1981," McDonald said. "I just stopped by and 32 years later I am still here. I have enjoyed my 32 years, but it is time. It has been a pleasure to work with all of you, and I wish you all the best of luck."

"Scott, you are a true professional in every sense of the word," County Chairman Randy Douglas said.

Wilmington Supervisor and Public Safety Committee chair Randy Preston presented McDonald with a resolution of appreciation for his years of service, which started as a case worker on Sept. 8, 1981. He became the director of the Probation Department in 1989.

Veterans court

County District Attorney Kristy Sprague said that she has continued to work with Judge Richard Meyer to start a Veterans Court in Essex County.

"Judge Meyer is working to get the approval to do a formal court," Sprague said.

"We have all of the agencies set up and the core group organized. We are looking at the

41212

McDonald next couple of months, but it looks like it is a go."

Overtime

Willsboro Supervisor Ed Hatch asked about an approximate $45,000 spent on overtime by the Essex County Sheriff ’s Department. Sheriff Richard Cutting said the expense was in line with previous years and state mandates.

"That covers sick time, personal leave time," Cutting said. "I do not know if that is significantly high based on our budget.

About 60 percent of that is contractual."

"It actually sounds to me like that is a little bit down from where we have been," Moriah Supervisor Tom Scozzafava said.

Lady Pats Continued from page 1 After the game, Long said that the team had represented their section well and played a hard game.

“The kids have worked for it all year,” he said. “This was a new experience for all of them. I am really excited for this team. The experience of coming here is going to help them tremendously.”

Meghan Strong finished her sophomore season with 14 points to go with three steals

and a pair of assists. Strong will enter her junior year as the Patriots’ three-point career leader, having connected on 98 long-distance attempts. She will also have an outside shot of joining the 1,000-point club, having amassed 616 points in her first three years of varsity.

Playing in her final game for the Patriots, Haley Taylor added eight points, seven rebounds and three steals to the AVCS effort, while fellow senior Sierra Snow added six points, six rebounds and three steals.

“They have both come in and worked from the first time they stepped on a varsity court,” Long said. “They have been great leaders during their time with me, and I’m going to miss them.”

Madison Rondeau added five points and three rebounds, with Taylor Saltus scoring five points to go with two assists and Logan Snow scoring three points along with three rebounds and two steals.

“We are going to work on getting better in the off season,” Long said. “Hopefully, this will give them that drive to want to play here next year.”

The Patriots ended their record-setting season with a 19-3 mark, becoming the first team from their school to make the Final Four in girls basketball. Logan Snow was awarded the sportsmanship award for her performance in the semifinals, while Strong was named to the all-tournament team.

For Bishop Kearney, Skyler GausneyJones scored 23 points, 16 in the second half, to lead the Kings. Edoka scored 12 of her 14 points in the first half, while Kharysma Bryant scored 11. Arianne Smith, Sheila Hawkes and Princella McCullough each scored four points.

The Kings went on to defeat Harpursville, 54-44, to claim the Class C state title.

keith@denpubs.com C L I N TO N V I L L E — T h e AuSable Valley girls varsity basketball team received a sendoff from classmates and community members early Friday, March 15 as they made their way toward Troy and the NYSPHSAA Class C Final Four.

Students crowded the walkway from the school to the charter bus that was set up to take the girls to the Capital Region, where they will play Section V’s Bishop Kearney Saturday, March 16, at 2:15 p.m.

“We wanted to do something that was right for these kids,” Superintendent Paul Savage said. “They deserve to be honored, and this team is representing us in the final four. I liked the way it was — it was perfect.”

Members of the team walked to the bus as students made a human tunnel for them to go through. Stu-

dents and fans cheered as the team filed onto the bus and head coach Roger Long addressed the crowd, thanking them for the support.

Then it was on to the road as the bus was escorted by members of the Clinton County Sheriff ’s Department and local fire departments.

“This has been great for the players,” Savage said.

“We want them to enjoy this ride as much as the journey that has taken them to this point. I do not think that the

players quite know yet what they have accomplished, but this will be something that they will talk about for years to come.”

This is the first NYSPHSAA Final Four appearance for the Lady Patriots, who will represent Section VII and seek to bring home the first NYSPHSAA girls basketball championship trophy. According to state records, it would be the second state title for the region, the last being won by Mineville in 1930.

Family ties to history to be told shaun@denpubs.com PERU — Jacqueline Madison is going to share a different perspective on history.

On Sunday, March 24, she will give a presentation called “From Slavery to Citizenship” at the Peru library at 5 p.m.

The talk will focus on three moments in history — the enactment of the Emancipation Proclamation, Martin Luther King Jr.’s involvement with the Civil Rights Movement, and the election of President Barack Obama.

But this will not be a textbook style history lesson.

Madison will instead use the experiences of her family to illustrate the impact of those events.

“I don’t think my story is unique, but typically you don’t hear those stories,” Madison said.

It all starts with Madison’s great grandmother and great-great grandmother, both of whom were slaves in Darlington, South Carolina.

“What my sister and I, and some other relatives, have uncovered is that maybe it wasn’t the greatest arrangement, but the owners were much more benevolent to some of their slaves than anticipated,” Madison said. “Not every slave owner was horrendous.”

The intention is not to condone slavery, but to instead help people understand another side of the story.

“You don’t ever fix a problem until you know the whole truth,” Madison said.

“By saying this I’m not saying that I think slavery is a good thing — it’s not, because it doesn’t allow people to be themselves. But if you have thousands of acres, there’s no way possible that even a family of 10 can farm it. ” From there the story goes to Madison’s grandfather, who she defines as a “quiet activist” who, as early as the 1920s, believed everyone should be treated as equals.

“I never thought too much of it until I got older, because it’s just my family,” Madison said.

But the inauguration of President Barack Obama brought everything together for Madison.

Madison and her daughter went to Obama’s inauguration in 2009.

“Almost 150 years later, the emancipation proclamation finally came full circle,” Madison said. “It’s like touching history. You can imagine all of those people

that came before you that were trying to get to this point.”

The one-hour presentation will weave Madison’s family history together and will include some slides.

There will also be a question and answer session at the end.

“I think this will give people a whole new way of thinking about things from that era,” Madison said.

Music jam at Belden ESSEX — On Thursday, March 28, at 6:30 p.m., the Belden Noble Library will host a community music jam and sing-along open to all levels of acoustic musicians and singers. Bring instruments and songs to share or just come and play/sing our favorites. Free and open to the public. Call Donna Sonnett for more information, 963-7494, or email cupolahouse@hotmail.com.
