Food! Fun! Pumpkins galore! It all awaits you at Pumpkinville, opening for the season this Saturday, Sept. 13. Come down to Great Valley to explore 200 acres of fall fun. Admission is free and pay-asyou-go attractions are sure to please everyone. New this year is a pedal car track, located in front of the Corn Maze entrance, providing fast-paced action in tractorthemed vehicles that resemble dune buggies. A Corn Stalk TeePee and a Pumpkin House are also new features sure to please kids and adults! The Corn Maze, a popular attraction for years, is also new and improved. Professionally designed by a Utah-based company, the maze promises to be more challenging than in past years, while still featuring the scavenger hunt. The maze is sponsored by WYRK, whose logo is built into the corn — be sure to check out the aerial view if you take a weekend helicopter ride, offered weekends in October. The popular Jumpin Pillows that were installed last season are ready to provide more high-flying action! The giant, air-filled pillows are built into the ground to provide exciting jumping for kids and adults. Of course, you can’t forget to visit other old favorites along the way including hayrides, the Corn Cannon, the Cow Train, Gem Mining, Storyland and

support to help get him there. Noah has been wrestling since he was 4 years old, under the coaching of Victor Arena, in the Ellicottville Wrestling Club and has won 104 matches over a two-year period. Last year, Noah placed fourth at the Nationals in Battle Creek, Mich., and wrestled as a member of the NYS National Team and the NYS Duals Team at Ohio State where the team placed fourth. He trains four days a week and works out every day with his training “dummy” Jason or during season with his training partner Simon Clark. His fourth place finish at the Battle Creek nationals qualified him to attend the NUWAY Freak Show. And did I mention Noah is only 7 years old? As a second grader, he is a very active boy See Noah Morlock page 3

Ellicottville Salt Cave, which will offer a variety of salt therapy treatments including halotherapy, salt massage and exfoliation treatments. Draper has been a massage therapist for more than eight years, most at a local spa in Ellicottville. About a year ago, a fork in the road led her to Ashville, N.C., where she was introduced to the concept of halotherapy, the use of salt vapor to treat a variety of physical ailments. “I thought this would go great in Ellicottville,” she said. Draper explained that salt caves have been used in Europe for decades dating back to WWII when people hid in the salt caves to escape the bombing. A German doctor noticed this improvement See Salt Cave page 4
School Year Off to Strong Start Enrollment Steady at 600, Open House Sept. 18 By Jann Wiswall
Superintendent Mark Ward briefed the ECS board on backto-school week at its meeting on Sept. 9, beginning with a construction update on the capital project.
With asbestos abatement complete, demolition of the old gym, chorus rooms, home economics room and other spaces is next on the agenda. Because that work will be loud and potentially disruptive,
project managers plan to move to a second shift schedule for a few weeks to confine the worst of the noise to after-school hours. Ward also reported that See School Year Start page 6
Consolidated Funding Grant Denied Village to Foot Entire Bill for Wastewater Treatment Plant
By Jann Wiswall
The Village of Ellicottville’s Consolidated Funding Application (CFA) for a state grant to offset the cost of building a new wastewater treatment plant was rejected by the state’s CFA review
committee last month, leaving the village with the difficult challenge of paying for the entire $4 million-plus project through increased sewer bills for village residents. The new wastewater treatment plant is part of a consent order (a mandate) placed on the village by the state Department of Environmental
Conservation and involves extensive electrical upgrades, new equipment and new systems. The village put tremendous effort into its grant application, including hiring a consultant and engaging the services of the village’s engineering firm, Nussbaumer & Clarke, to See Funding Grant Denied page 7
Planning Board OKs Special Use Permits Approves Armor Inn Preliminary Plans By Jann Wiswall
The Village of Ellicottville’s Planning Board held public hearings on special use permits for four properties at its meeting Sept. 9. The hearing on a new accessory garage and second-
floor apartment at 39 Martha St. prompted questions from the owner of an adjacent property. David Hector, a part-time resident who has owned his property for several decades, said he was “not thrilled about the building” whose apartment
has a window facing into his bedroom. But that was not his primary reason for concern. Instead, his concern is that so many people are converting their barns and garages into accommodations. See Planning Board, page 7

Looking for a fun way to support youth sports and other programs? Look no further than “A Night at the Derby,” sponsored by Springville Youth Inc. (SYI), on Saturday, Sept. 20. The event, which takes place from 6:00 - 10:30 p.m., is a unique fundraiser and social event that uses thoroughbred horse races instead of a traditional raffle to determine the winning “number.” Races are up-to-date productions shot with five cameras. Each race features commentary by professional race track announcers and shows the horses parading to the post, loading in the gate, split screen close-ups, horses in the lead
graphics, the tote board results, the winning horse in the winner’s circle, slow motion photo finish replays, plus a full graphic and commentary announcing the results of each race. All races will be projected on a state-of-the-art video projection system to give everyone the feeling that they are at the derby. There will be a total of 10 races with 10 horses in each race. Prizes are determined by the number of participants and how many raffle tickets are purchased for each horse. Proceeds from “A Night at the Derby” benefit SYI, a 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization that provides recreation services

If you are riding West, you will need to wear dark glasses or a face shield. BIG TIP HERE: CLEAN YOUR WINDSHIELD! Keep in mind if the sun is at your back, it is in the eyes of oncoming traffic. They may not see you — be aware! • Watch your road surface.

Cooler temps and lower sun means a lot of the roads without a lot of traffic may be wet well into the day. • Also, leaves are falling. Wet leaves on the highway are as slick as ice. They are! Slow down before you get to the turn or stop. • A lot of rural roads are repaired with “tar and chips.” This leaves a very loose surface when first laid down, but after a few days, the driving lanes are more stable. However, the loose stone accumulates at the edges and center of lanes and also on the shoulder. • We are not far away from a frost or freezing point kind of night. Be very careful on early morning trips if you are one who still rides to work in the morning. As always, be on the lookout and ride as if your and your passenger’s life depends on it … it does! Do not garage the scooter yet. Lots of clubs have fall rides or just follow your headlight someplace in the country. So kickstands up … fists in the wind!

End of summer should not be doom and gloom for bikers. Fall in western New York is a spectacular time to ride. Get off the main drag, head to the country and just turn right onto the next side road you come to. Motor down to a comfortable speed and look around you at the colors and views fall brings. The leaves are just turning, golden rod is in its glory, pumpkins are appearing at roadside stand — though there is a limit to how many pumpkins you can haul on your bike — like maybe none! But you can certainly find a place with homemade pumpkin pie — like at the end of Sugartown Road. It will be cooler, but “leather up” and put a hoody in your bag for a chilly ride home in the evening. Wear gloves and boots, and get your butt on your bike! A couple of safety thoughts for fall riding: • First and foremost, school is back in session and that means kids on or near the road and school buses. Be the

A Smile Can Say a Thousand Words
Ken Schuster Benefit Sept. 20 in West Valley By Mary Fox
Ken Schuster understands smiles. In fact, facial and hand expressions of all kinds are how he communicates. Ken has been hearing impaired since birth, but he doesn’t see himself as handicapped in any way. The deaf community has rallied around Ken and his family with their love, support and donations. Ken has a 9-to-5 job with Emerling Ford in Springville as a parts driver and an active life as a husband, father to three girls, grandfather to seven and friend to all. He just has a different way of communicating. Ken Schuster is back to work, but in June of this year he was hospitalized at Mercy Hospital for 32 days for several infections, profuse testing and four surgeries during his stay. Ken’s wife Kathy stayed with him at the hospital, because Ken is deaf and because his condition was so complex that a hospital-provided interpreter By Mary Lu Wells Cornell University Cooperative Extension Master Gardener
could not communicate his needs adequately. A medical emergency such as theirs interrupts the life of the entire family. Limited medical insurance and loss of income for both Ken and Kathy due to time off work amounts to regular living expenses not being paid and the added burden of extensive medical bills. To give them a helping hand, a fundraising party for Ken and his family will be held at the West Valley Fire Hall at 3 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 20 with an afternoon of food, entertainment and raffles. Tickets are $10. Kids under age 5 are free. Tickets include door prizes, a spaghetti dinner and music by DJ John Barry from 3–6 p.m. Ken has helped raise three stepdaughters, Carrie Franklin and Kim Ploetz, both of Ellicottville, and Danielle Long of Georgia. Ken is known as “Big Papa” by his seven grandkids ranging from
22 months to 10 years old. The spaghetti dinner will be prepared by members of the West Valley Volunteer Fire Company with food donated by Ken’s friends and family. Desserts will be provided by the ladies of St. Paul’s Lutheran Church. DJ John Barry is donating his time, music and PA system starting at 3 p.m. There will be door prizes, 50-50 and raffles. A Chinese basket raffle with over 50 baskets will be drawn at 6 p.m. Other items being raffled include donations of an LG 50” HD Plasma TV donated by Ken’s employer, Emerling Ford; a crossbow with shooting and classes at Holiday Valley, donated by Holiday Valley; two quarters of beef by Mark and Lisa Hansen; and several pieces of furniture. Make it a fun afternoon out for the entire family on Saturday, Sept. 20 at the West Valley Volunteer Firemen’s Hall!

From the Bookshelf Recommended Reading from the Ellicottville Memorial Library
“The Mountaintop School for Dogs and Other Second Chances” by Ellen Cooney Evie is makingg her way to the Sanctuary. She has lied to gain entry. She has pretended to know more mor than she does about dogs, but she is learning fast. Once the indomitable Mrs. Auberchon Aub lets her pass, she will find her way. Like the racing greyhound who refuses refu to move, the golden retriever who returns to his job as the Sanctuary’s butl butler every time he’s adopted, and the Rottweiler who’s a hopeless candidate for search-and-rescue, Evie comes from a troubled past. But as they all learn, no one should stay prisoner to a life she didn’t choose. This T is the story of two women and a whole pack of dogs who, having lost their way in the world, find a place at a training school—and radical rescue the center—called the Sanctuary. It is a story of strays and rescues, kidnappings and ce homecomings, moving on and holding on and letting go. And it is, ultimately, a ho moving and hilarious chronicle of the ways in which humans and canines help m each other find new lives, new selves, and new hope. This book is available at the Ellicottville Memorial Library. Stop in and check out our selection of over 8,400 items in our adult fiction and nonfiction sections.

who loves baseball, soccer and football. “I’m not old enough yet to play football, but I can’t wait ‘til I can,” exclaimed Noah. As a water boy for PeeWee and Midgets football, he’s very involved with local sports. He also likes to run as part of his custom-designed workout program by Arena. He has also trained with Tim and Steve Jacobson of Salamanca. Noah currently trains privately with Jeff Prescott of Olean. Prescott is a three-time NYS Champion wrestler, and a two-time NCAA Division 1 Penn State wrestler. Private training will help prepare Noah for the Freak Show Oct. 31– Nov. 2. Noah will arrive in Las Vegas on Thursday, Oct. 30, attend a VIP weigh-in for his 77 lb. Division for 8 year-
olds and under, and mingle with many Ultimate Fighting Championship celebrities, as well as Olympic wrestling celebrities. He will be wrestling at the Rio Hotel on Saturday, Nov. 1 and Sunday, Nov. 2. Spaghetti Dinner Fundraiser A community fundraiser will take place Saturday, Sept. 27 at Madigan’s in Ellicottville. An all-you-can-eat spaghetti dinner will start at 6 p.m. for two hours, and will include spaghetti and meatballs, salad, bread and dessert. Tickets are $10 each for adults, and $5 each for kids, and can be purchased at Katy’s Cafe and Coffee Culture. They will also be available at the door. The Morlock family’s goal is 100 people in attendance. The money raised will cover airfare and accommodations while in Las Vegas.
Noah watches the college teams and already has his sights on Penn State, Cornell and Iowa as possible college choices. According to him, “They have really good wrestling teams, and I want to go to college at one of these three universities.” But as Noah said enthusiastically, “The most important thing is to have fun!” That belief will hopefully take him to the Olympics one day, which is another of Noah’s goals. For more information about youth wrestling, visit the EVLWrestlingClub Facebook page or talk to Noah Morlock. His enthusiasm will overwhelm you!

Salt Cave Continued from Front Page
in health and eventually opened salt caves to treat patients’ respiratory ailments. Now, halotherapy is practiced worldwide. Feeling that Ellicottville needed to offer more holistic and alternative healing therapies, Draper decided to start her own salt cave spa. She explained, “Halotherapy is good for the respiratory system. It’s anti-inflammatory, antibacterial. It’s good for allergies, asthma, sinus. It’s calming for inflammation.” Working with a contractor from Ontario, Canada, Draper’s salt cave room will use imported Himalayan rock salt and include molded salt stalactites. A water feature will use salt rocks containing 84 trace minerals to create the brine to be inhaled. Describing the 220-squarefoot cave room, Draper said there will be 3 inches of salt on the floor and salt rocks will cover the walls. Visitors will be required to remove their shoes and wear paper booties. The cave temperature will be maintained at a comfortable 70 degrees with 50 percent
humidity. Gravity chairs, soothing fiber optic lights and relaxing Zen music will help you destress and detoxify. The room will also be ventilated after each session to bring in clean air. It will be a peaceful place to go and be quiet with your thoughts. “There won’t be any cell phones, no electronics, no talking. You just go in and you inhale the air and relax,” said Draper. Appointments will be scheduled on the hour and include 45 minutes of halotherapy. And unlike a massage, there is no need to undress. But massages will be offered
— just not the typical menu at most spas. Draper’s mini salt cave massage room with provide halotherapy while you enjoy a salt stone massage, which Draper said helps eczema, acne, psoriasis and other skin conditions. You can also choose from a foot salt scrub and salt exfoliant for the back. Couples massages in the main cave may be added in the future. Draper is looking into purchasing a four-person salt sauna and plans to offer salt lamps, neti pots, a cooking line and other products in her retail area. Halotherapy benefits have been touted to reduce bronchial inflammation, decrease allergic reactions to pollens, cleanse and sanitize airways, treat colds, improve dermatological conditions and improve sleep. As her tagline reads, “Step in and Catch Your Breath.” The spa is located at 32 West Washington Street is set to open sometime this fall.

School Year Start
Continued from Front Page
enrollment for the year is steady at about 600 students, including those who attend school off site. Roughly 140 students are from “out-ofdistrict.” The board approved Ward’s recommendation to hire retired teacher Sandra Reed as a “transition trainer” for a few weeks to support newly hired teaching assistant (and daughter-in-law) Heather Reed. Heather will be working with grade 1-3 students to provide math support. In addition, the board approved the appointment of Melanie VanWicklin as a fulltime teacher aide and Richard Ross as a part-time cleaner. In other business, Ward reported that the school has awarded sale of a bond anticipation note for the capital project to Jefferies, LLC, at an interest cost of 0.68 percent. He also reported that the board agreed at a special meeting on Aug. 29 to take the state up on its offer to allow ECS to refinance its loan for past renovations of the middle and high school. ECS will save $60-$90,000 on the last six years of that loan; the state
will save twice that. Principals’ Reports Elementary Principal Connie Poulin said that every year during her opening assembly for each grade, she describes her annual “Principal’s Challenge.” This year’s challenge is for students to be alert for U.S. Armed Services veterans and to make a point to thank them for their service. Children will be introduced to local veterans and will learn how to spot patches, insignia, caps and other identifying symbols. Poulin also said that the reading celebration has already begun. This year’s theme is “Let’s Make Connections.” The youngest grades will focus on making “text-to-text” connections, e.g. that story reminds me of another story. Middle elementary grades will focus on “text-to-self” connections, e.g. that story reminds me of an experience I had. Older elementary grades will focus on “text-to-world” connections, e.g. that story connects me to other people. Author and professional storyteller Lorna MacDonald Czarnota will be visiting ECS
in September to talk about resilience and overcoming adversity; other special events and incentive programs are planned as well. Middle/High School Principal Bob Miller reported that “we’re open for business and business is good!” Teachers and support staff were well prepared for firstday confusion related to construction, lockers and other issues. There was no opening day assembly since there is no gym, but an outdoor assembly at the football field is planned. Training for the new tablet computers provided to advanced sophomores and all juniors is going well, though some initial glitches were discovered and quickly fixed. Note to parents: The open house for elementary school parents is scheduled for Thursday, September 18 from 6:30-7:30 p.m., followed by the middle/high school parent open house from 7:308:30 p.m. The next meeting of the ECS school board is scheduled for Tuesday, Sept. 23 at 7:30 p.m. in the high school library.
Enchanted Mountain Weavers Guild Meets Sept. 12 The monthly meeting of the Enchanted Mountain Weavers Guild will be held on Friday, Sept. 12 at 7 p.m. at the Grace Lutheran Church, 79 Mechanic St. in Bradford, Pa. The program will be a presentation by Linda Georgian on sewing with hand-woven fabric. All interested in the fiber arts are welcome to attend. For more information, you may call (716) 9257109.
ECS Girls JV Soccer • Photos by Ellicottville Sports Boosters
So, I open up my morning paper to the sports section to see how Philadelphia Flyers’ captain Claude Giroux is being greeted by teammates at training camp after being arrested in Ottawa at a bar on Canada Day for “repeatedly grabbing the buttocks of a male police officer.” (I hope you’re sitting down for this one – police say “alcohol may have been involved!!!”) Instead, I spot a photograph of a very elderly lady in a track suit who appears to be competing in a pole vaulting event!?! The mental image of that woman sprinting down the track, jamming that pole into a metal slot and then slingshotting herself up and over a bar high above her head made me cringe. My first thought was that she must be on the same kind of performance program made famous by Ben Johnson. Then I double-checked the article to make sure it was a genuine sports story and not an ad for hip replacement surgery. Then I read the article. Florence Storch, 101-years-old, of Sherwood Park, Alberta is the oldest competitor in the over-55 javelin throwing event and indeed the oldest participant in the entire tournament. That six-foot pole balanced on her shoulder was a spear. Centenarian Florence Storch is a spearchucker, not a pole vaulter. Wisely, ice climbing, volcano surfing, wingsuit flying and pole vaulting are events not sanctioned by the Canada 55-Plus Games. These senior events are meant to be inspiring, not insane. Florence is described in the article as “a little old lady with a really big stick.” I’m sure the reporter was safely back in Ontario by the time Florence read that description of herself. “Impaling” is not part of Florence’s javelin throwing per se … but still a possibility. Florence was born in 1913
when throwing spears involved wild African animals who became highly vengeful when you missed with your toss. Back then, you could pretty much toss a coin to predict who … the thrower or the runner … would become dinner. Hardly looking her age, Florence likes to joke that she looks more like 110 years old instead of 101. She got into her sport innocently enough when, while helping organize the seniors’ games, she noticed nobody had signed up for the javelin. So she put her name down. She was a bust that first year, so she got the local high school athletic coach to set up a training program for her. After a few years of practice, she started winning medals and has dominated the sport in her age bracket ever since. Today during training sessions, Florence needs the help of a friend. Her companion stickhandles the javelin through the halls and doorways of Hanna’s Seniors Lodge and then they practice on the back lawn. Florence throws the javelin and her friend, a really good friend, fetches the missile after every toss. Not to be critical, but this sport of seniors throwing sticks could really use dogs. Unlike a red wine with a lot of tannins, the years are not helping Florence become better. While once she took a run at the starting line before releasing her toss, she now throws from a standing position. As the javelin leaves her right hand, her left hand latches on to the walker to steady herself. And while the instrument remains an aluminum shaft that is about six feet in length, Florence has shrunk to below five feet. Florence also admits her eyesight isn’t what it used to be, which has caused a shortage of volunteers who go out onto the pitch to measure throwing distances. All it takes is one guy coming into the clubhouse with a spear in his back and all the other
volunteers start phoning in sick. Florence’s son Ed also competes in several events at the seniors’ games, but at 70 years of age, she dismisses him as a “rookie.” Although Florence Storch may not be an athlete in her prime, she’s got game. Unlike the shortstop from the Toronto Blue Jays who believes you could die from getting grass stains on your uniform, Florence does what it takes to get the job done. A collection of gold medals underscores this woman’s determination to go out year after year and slay the real enemy with a spear … aging. “You’ve got to make up your mind and I’ve made up mine – I’m going to get the gold.” Memo to kids – there it is, the secret to a great career. First, try things— lots of things— until you find the one that kind of fits. Then get serious, then get better and soon you’ll be going for the gold. Later in life when you’re down and disappointed and find yourself bent over picking up the pieces of your chosen career, imagine Florence Storch standing behind you about to unleash that spear. And yeah, she’s got the pointy end at the front. If that doesn’t get you up and running, nothing will. Spear in hand, walker at the ready with every toss, Florence proves, that although her performance might be beatable, the human spirit is not. Florench Storch – a spearchucker extraordinaire and an inspiration to us all. For comments, ideas and copies of The True Story of Wainfleet, go to www.williamthomas.ca
Health & Fitness: Returning to Exercise after Injury
By Kim Duke neta & afaa Certified Trainer
In my last article, I explained how exercise is an essential part of helping you to stay injury free. But, what if you are an experienced athlete or someone who exercises regularly to stay in shape and you find yourself with an injury that interrupts your routine at some point in your life? Your injury can be the loss of function of a body part due to a muscle strain, ligament sprain or a more serious issue like a fracture or ligament tear. Whatever the injury, there are three basic phases to getting yourself back to where you were prior to the injury: the immediate post-injury phase, the recovery period, and the functional phase. You may move through these phases quickly for minor problems or it may take months for severe injury. During the first 24 hours to 48 hours, or the acute phase, following a minor injury, think R-I-C-E – rest, ice, compression, and elevation. Rest: Minimize movement of the injured body part to prevent further harm to the tissues. Ice: Apply as soon as possible following the injury or onset of inflammation. Ice the area for 15 to no more than 20 minutes. Experts differ on how frequently to apply ice to decrease pain and swelling. You should wait 30 minutes before applying ice again, and there may not be any advantage to repeating ice treatment more frequently than every two hours.
Compression: Wrap injured area immediately with an elastic bandage to help reduce swelling. Do not wrap it so tightly that the area beyond the bandage throbs. Redo the wrap as it loosens. Elevation: Elevate the injured part of the body above the level of the heart, allowing gravity to drain fluid from the injury. Elevation is best started immediately, but it is still effective even after significant swelling has occurred. Please check with your doctor before beginning physical activity during the acute phase. If the injury is to any part of the leg, aerobics may not be possible during the early post-injury phase unless you have access to an arm cycle. However, you can still do upper body and arm strength training. In addition, you will want to start very gentle stretching of the muscles in the affected limb and you can perform regular stretching of the rest of your body. Stop stretching if it causes pain. To maintain muscle tone around the injury, do sets of repetitive isometric contractions (no active joint movement). The Recovery Period Once swelling is subsiding and pain diminishes, you move into the recovery phase, during which you regain range of motion, strength and endurance. At the same time you are working on the affected area, continue exercising your other body parts. Go slow - stretching intensity can increase gradually, but most important is improving range of motion. Warm your muscles with heat or by aerobics before stretching and joint movement. Use ice following the routine if you have pain or swelling afterward. Stretch two to three times a day; do range of motion more frequently. Keeping up your endurance after an injury is often the most challenging task, especially for
runners. Swimming and water aerobics will usually put the least amount of stress on an injury to the leg. The Post-Injury Functional Phase This last phase is the time to build toward regaining your full exercise capacity. You will be testing the injured area as you work your way up to your previous fitness level. For example, if you have sprained an ankle, start with quick-paced walking and light jogging for 10–15 minutes. Use pain and swelling to guide you on how quickly you can increase the time and intensity of exercise that puts pressure on the ankle. If you can, ice the injured area after exercise for at least the first week or two, especially if there is any discomfort or swelling. Preventing repeat injury is an important component of the functional phase. Consider using a simple elastic brace or consult with your doctor about other devices and orthotics to provide a little extra support. Even without the injured area causing symptoms, the tissues may not have healed completely. The fastest way to return to normal activity after an injury is to give your body the time it needs to rebuild its strength and conditioning. Many people are unaware that fitness training and injury recovery go hand in hand. After any injury you should discuss any treatments with your doctor. Gradually return to your previous fitness level without overdoing it. Too rapid a return can lead to other problems like stress fractures and tendonitis. Preventing repeat injury is an important component of your recovery. If your injury forced you from your activities for more than a couple weeks, expect an equal amount of time to return to your previous level. Always, listen to your body and let it guide you on your return.

GV Board to Hold Informational Public Hearing to Study Proposed School Tax Rebate Program
By Mary Fox
Prior to the start of the 7 p.m. Great Valley Town Board meeting on Monday, Sept. 8, a public hearing was held regarding the sale of the Killbuck Post Office building to the Killbuck Fire Department. Murray , representing the Killbuck Fire Department, reported that the fire company wants to buy the building from the Town of Great Valley if the board will sell it, but said they need more information regarding cost of maintenance and insurance. “The thing that has us worried is insurance and property taxes. We need to know what it would be,” he said. Town Supervisor Dan Brown suggested he contact Phil Moyer, the town insurance agent, for the information he needs on insurance and report back at the next board meeting. The U.S. Postal System does major maintenance, repairs, grass mowing and anything to do with security of the building. Once the fire department takes over the building, the fire department would be responsible for minor maintenance as long as the post office is operating in that building. The regular meeting of the board was opened at 7:25 p.m. Supervisor Brown called upon Ken Ziccarelli, representative from Gernatt
Asphalt Products, Inc., to speak to a complaint made by a citizen living across from the “Northrup pit” on Route 219 about dust from the pit’s roadway. “We take complaints seriously and responded quickly with water within 20 minutes. Millings were also applied to the road way,” Ziccarelli said. “In the five years we have been operating this pit, this is the first complaint we have had about it,” he said. “We apologize for any inconvenience.” Brown said, “The day in question, county highway trucks were pulling in and out of the pit’s road. No Gernatt trucks were there that day.” Budget Officer Hildegarde Krause informed the board that it was time to begin work on the budget. A work session date was set for Sept 22 at 7 p.m. The Great Valley Planning Board received a call from someone interested in buying Carolina Connection, the old salvage yard on Route 98. “As long as he (owner Joe Schumacher) is currently licensed as a junkyard, it can be grandfathered in as a junkyard,” said Zoning Board Member Al Fish. Brown reported three dead hemlock trees at the Willoughby Cemetery will be cut down by Wagoner Tree Service of Salamanca for $1,500, with the stumps removed for $300. One tombstone will have to be
removed, but will be put back after the trees are cut down. Councilwoman Ann Rockwell asked the board to request a traffic study from the state to reduce the speed limit on Route 217 between Sullivan Hollow and the Great Valley/ Salamanca town line once the detour is eliminated. “It’s not safe for children to walk on. There are more homes and businesses creating more traffic,” she said. Town Clerk Toni Evans reported information she gained from attending a class on municipal accounting. She explained how the proposed real property tax rebate program would give even more power to the State over townships, to the point of requiring shared services with other towns. She urged board members and the general public to be informed of the results of the town agreeing to the rebate. “It is yet to be determined how the school tax rebate will influence any reduction on taxes. We need to study the outcomes to see if it is anything we want to participate in,” said Brown. A public information hearing will be held on the rebate program the same evening as the Oct. 13 board meeting and will begin at 7 p.m. at the Great Valley Town Hall. The regular board meeting will directly follow.
Funding Grant Denied slowly. The first stage of the project — extension of the water line along Route 242 — has been delayed by “conflicts with the gas company.” Once that is completed, Smith said he has encouraged the DOT to put the reconfiguration of the Fillmore/Elizabeth/Route 219 intersection next on its to-do list. It is not yet known when the rest of the promised project — the actual sidewalk along 242 into the village, and rebuilding the wheelchair ramps and curbs at five intersections along Washington Street — can begin. Water Line Repairs The gas company, National Fuel, is also the cause of a delay in repairing a water leak at the intersection of Elk and Elizabeth streets in the village. Several weeks ago, the company was asked to locate its gas lines, which must be done before water repair work can begin. Until that leak is fixed, other suspected leaks cannot be precisely located, holding up repairs further up Elk Street and on Mechanic Street. Coolidge asked DPW head Harold Morton to push National Fuel to get this resolved. Flood Damage Prevention According to Village Attorney Bob Simon, the new floodplain maps for the Village and Town of Ellicottville that are under review until February will trigger the need for an amendment to a local law on flood damage prevention. The amendment must address a number of issues, such as revised first-floor elevation requirements. Simon said he would prepare a draft of the amendment language for the board to review and put to village residents for adoption. Fall Festival Planning Special Events Committee

prepare all of the engineering design, technical and support materials. The team, which included Mayor Charles Coolidge and Village Engineer Mike Smith (who is CEO of Nussbaumer & Clarke), presented its plan in person to the CFA committee. Smith said that, among other important considerations, the village pointed out that upgrading the system as required by the DEC will significantly support future development projects in Ellicottville and, therefore, the entire region. Smith said that the committee will not reveal how it scored the project against competing applications. However, he said he suspects that a number of factors played into its decision, including the trend away from funding infrastructure projects in favor of projects that more immediately create new jobs. During its meeting on Monday, Sept. 8, Coolidge and the board expressed obvious frustration about the decision. Coolidge noted that “Ellicottville isn’t perceived to be a community in need by the state or the county” and, therefore, often is denied grants. Smith estimated the total cost to the village will be $180,000 per year for 30 years based on a $4 million project cost, noting that the state is offering a significantly subsidized interest rate on bonds. Smith said he will provide a detailed analysis of what this means to residents at the next board meeting. He also suggested that costs can be contained by keeping “a tight rein on capital costs and the plant’s operation and maintenance.” In other business, Smith said the DOT’s HoliMont sidewalk project is moving

Chair Patra Lowes reported that her committee is working through all of its issues related to the upcoming Fall Festival. Police Officer in Charge Don Auge has met with all other area police agencies to work out a coverage schedule and the costs of police support for the event. Lowes asked DPW head Morton to carefully track his department’s labor and materials costs for the upcoming Rock n’ Roll Weekend (Sept. 19-21). She said the committee wants to get a sense of the actual costs of major events to the village as a whole in order to be able to pass on some of those costs to event sponsors in the future. 1887 Building Land Swap Krog Corporation has asked the village for the deed to the land directly beneath the 1887 Building. The developer plans to construct an underground garage beneath the building to provide parking for the building’s future condominium owners. Attorney Simon explained that the board could approve the action if it determined that there was “no public necessity or need for the property to be conveyed.” In exchange, Krog Corp. has offered the village the deed to some land surrounding the building. Board member Bob Brogcinski asked if the conveyance needs to be approved by village residents. Simon replied that, legally, the answer is no. The board approved the motion to make the exchange by a vote of four ayes to one nay (Brogcinski). The next meeting of the Village of Ellicottville board was rescheduled for Wednesday, Oct. 8, due to the Columbus Day holiday.

Planning Board Continued from Front Page
“It’s the spirit of the thing that bothers me,” he said. “Does Ellicottville want a community that has multiple housing units on each lot?” Planning Board Chair Nancy Rogan explained that village zoning laws have for many years permitted construction of one accessory building per residential lot. Those buildings must meet maximum height and square footage, green space, parking, design and other requirements. She also explained that only accessory buildings with kitchens need to be brought to the planning board. Other types of buildings — garages, sheds, apartments without kitchens, etc. — can be approved by the village code enforcement officer/building inspector. Hector thanked the board for explaining the laws and processes and made no further comment. Another resident attended the hearing for an accessory building at 1 Adams St., asking if the building would change her neighboring property’s setbacks. Rogan explained that each property has its own setback requirements and that the building will have no impact on her property.
There were no comments from the public on the hearings for special use permits for a new spa — Ellicottville Salt Cave at 32 West Washington St. — or the relocation of Cadillac Jack’s restaurant to 24 Monroe St. Following adjournment of the public hearings, all four special use permit applications were approved. Rogan thanked community members for their “valuable input.” The board then moved on to an architectural review of Cadillac Jack’s. Architect Dennis Cook provided scale drawings of the front and rear exteriors of the building, noting the rear emergency egress stairway from the planned second floor balcony was approved by the Village Zoning Board of Appeals. The planning board was pleased with the designs, saying it will be a vast improvement to the Monroe streetscape. Ellicott Development’s plans for the Armor Inn restaurant, which will be leasing the space behind the Kwik Fill in Ellicott Development’s Village Centre, were discussed. Public hearings on the special use permit to “operate a new restaurant in an existing
commercial building,” as well as its parking and landscape plan, were scheduled for Oct. 14. The proposed parking plan meets local code requirements, based on the square footage of occupied space in the shopping center. Ellicott CEO Bill Paladino stated that when the remaining available space in the centre is leased (about 7,000 square feet adjacent to the EVL Cheese Co. store), additional parking will be acquired. He said the company is seeking retail tenants only, primarily for parking reasons. The board, which has been working with Paladino on the architectural designs for several months, approved the latest design as presented. However, a proposed 705-square-foot addition to the structure was not approved. That addition is pending NYS DEC certification for construction on a floodway. Paladino and the board also assuaged concerns from a neighboring resident about lighting, access and signage, to parking, landscaping, etc. The next Village Planning Board meeting will be Tuesday, Oct. 14 at 5:30 p.m. in the Village/Town Hall.

ECS-Franklinville Football Joint Venture Sees Success By Todd Palmatier
Some new ventures are taking shape in high school sports, and it’s no different in small school districts like Ellicottville and Franklinville for varsity and JV football. With number levels low for football in small schools, it has been getting harder to field both varsity and JV squads, which was forcing schools to put younger and less experienced players onto the gridiron at the varsity level. As the 2013 season came to a close, both schools opened discussions of a football merger and struck a deal quickly. The numbers showed that it was going to work for both districts, with both varsity and JV programs sporting 25plus student athletes. The teams have yet to decide on a mascot, but it will be decided by the communities in a joint venture for 2015 and beyond. The football program will also wear Ellicottville uniforms when games are at ECS, and Franklinville uniforms when games are in Franklinville. The Ellicottville/ Franklinville football squad took on the combined football team from Clymer and Sherman on Friday, Sept. 6 at Ray Grey Memorial field on the ECS campus. Under the direction of second-year coach Chad Bartoszek, the boys came ready to play, scoring on their first two possessions and racing out to a 20-0 halftime
lead. The team came out in the second half and kept the pressure on, marching to a 3316 victory. Junior quarterback Tommy Easton helped lead the offensive charge scoring with two touchdowns — one passing and one rushing. He had 61 passing yards and 46 rushing yards. Senior tailback Phalla Musall carried the ball 17 times for 131 yards and 3 touchdowns. Senior Ben Erickson, with one touchdown reception, was the recipient of most of the receiving yards. The defense was led by sophomore Zach Rathbun, and seniors Callum Watt and Alex Delity, who led the team in tackles. There were some solid hits and great open field tackles made by both teams, but some impressive hits and tackles came from junior Caleb Rinko. In talking with coaches after the game, they all lauded Rinko stating, “It’s going to be difficult keeping him off the playing field.� Bartoszek said, “It was a great night for our two communities. We had a great turnout from both schools fans.� He also said the TEAM came to play, they were excited and that it showed on the field “They played hard and got right after it,� he commented. Some parents and fans also agreed it was exciting and the game was awesome. One dad said, “It’s not every night you also see 30-plus JV
players on the sidelines rooting on their squad. Very impressive and the prospective of football is very promising here!� Coach Tim Bergan, Scott Palmatier and Harley Butler took the combined team Ellicottville-Franklinville JV football team to Sherman, N.Y., on Monday, Sept. 8 to take on the combined teams from Sherman, Clymer and Panama and capitalized on a 22-0 victory to take their record to 1-0. In girls’ varsity soccer, the Eagles got off to a rough start to begin their season, suffering losses to class A school Jamestown 5-2 last Thursday, and Allegany-Limestone 8-0, but returned the favor to Allegany-Limestone on Monday with a 2-0 victory. The girls’ JV soccer team started out with a 1-0 victory on Friday night over Fillmore. Little Eagles football season has kicked into high gear this year as well, with both the PeeWees and Midgets racing to 2-0 records. The Pee-Wees beat back the Cattaraugus Cowboys and the Allegany-Limestone Gators under the direction of Coach Brad Hurley. Next, they take on the Franklinville Panthers this Sunday at 1:30 p.m. at ECS. The Midgets under the direction of first-year Head Coach Tim Grinols have also raced out to a 2-0 record and will also take on the Panthers immediately following the Pee Wee game this Sunday.
