LAKE PLACID — Thestate has declined anyfurther appeals in its le-gal battle with LewisFamily Farm, but thecase is not over.
At an Aug. 20 pressconference in LakePlacid, Salim B. “Sandy”Lewis announced hisdecision to seek$208,000 from the APAto pay for his legal feesin a dispute that twicerejected an agency claimto jurisdiction over three houses on his 1,200-acre organicfarm in Essex.
When asked why he chose to do so, Lewis simply replied,“It’s just.”

Sandy, 63, and her husband, Vernon Hoover were insidetheir Silver Lake Road home July 5 when it caught fire. San-
dra was rescued from the blaze, but Vernon never made itout as flames gutted the house.
“I live right across the road,” said Denton, “and when Isaw that, it was unbelievable.”
Hoover has since moved to Wilmington to live with herson, Donald “Donnie” Hoover, but hopes to move back toher property when she has the means.
“Words just can’t explain what the whole community isdoing for her,” said Donnie, who said the family is still indispute with their insurance company to get the full valueof their policy. “Not only did she lose her husband, buteverything she owned.”
The event starts with a spaghetti dinner from 4:30-6 p.m.Immediately following is an auction featuring numerous

WARRENSBURG — Candidates for the va-cant state Fourth Judicial District SupremeCourt judgeship are lining up — and theyrange from an attorney from Malone to a coun-ty Surrogate Court Judge from Schenectady.
The vacant Supreme Court seat is a result ofthe retirement of Justice Jan Plumadore.
Essex County Family and Surrogate CourtJustice Richard Meyer, Malone attorney andformer Franklin County Attorney Brian Stew-art and Schenectady County Surrogate CourtJustice Barry Kramer are all seeking partynominations.
The party nominations are required to takeplace between Sept. 26 and 28, but a time andplace has yet to be named for any of the par-ties.
Meyer will be seeking the Republican andConservative nomination. Stewart is seekingthe Democratic nod and Kramer is seeking De-mocratic and Conservative backing.
According to Stewart, his blend of publicand private sector experience in business dis-tances him from the pack in this election. Stew-art noted that it seems appropriate for a seatheld by a Franklin County resident to staywithin the county. Plumadore resides inFranklin County.
Meyer and Kramer have both handledSupreme Court cases, as Meyer has been sit-ting in since Plumadore’s retirement andKramer has been handling a 40-percentSupreme Court caseload for the last 14 years.
Kramer, a former college basketball AllAmerican at NYU and first-round NBA draftpick in 1967, graduated Suma Cum Laude fromSUNY Albany’s School of Law. Kramer that asa lawyer, he quickly ascended through theranks, eventually sitting on the board of direc-tors of the largest law firm in Albany. He prac-ticed law for 25 years before taking the seat ofSchenectady County Surrogate Court Judge in1993.
Kramer said has the temperament and thedesire to do the job well.
”I’m a very easygoing fellow, I love thelawyers — I practiced for 25 years and I un-derstand what it’s like on the other side of thebench,” Kramer said.
Prior to his 2005 election to the Essex Coun-ty Surrogate Court, Meyer practiced privatelyfor 23 years and was also Essex County Attor-ney for 18 years.
His recent decision affirming a Lewisfarmer’s right to construct housing for his la-bor force after the Adirondack Park Agencysaid the construction was illegal, is consideredby many to be a landmark decision reinforcing
federal agricultural law.The massive fourth judicial district encom-
passes a region stretching from Schenectady toSt. Lawrence counties.
State Third Department Independent Judi-cial Election Qualification Committee DirectorTim O’Keefe said Friday that the departmentis still receiving applications for the seat andthat no qualification rating have yet been is-sues. O’Keefe said he expects the qualificationratings of the candidates for the seat to be com-plete by mid-September.

Guess I will have to turn in myresignation as a fire Huffer &Puffer because I haven’t been to
a fire in over 12 years. Of course so willevery other member since there hasn’tbeen a fire in this part of town during thattime. I also have been asked by othertowns not to try joining their niches.
Hats Off Dept: to Chastity Wardell re-covering from an ambulance drive toBurlington; to Lewis farms and their valor-ous fight with APA on behalf of downtrod-den farmers; to the Essex ambulance whichseems to be spending a mighty amount oftime on the roads; to Kristy Sprague fornot having to move before her election; tothe Summer Vacation Bible jamboree andall who volunteered; to Bradley Paye forfinding 3 feet of organic bat droppings,which at 10.00 a pound, may earn enoughmoney to skip a Wednesday fund raisingmeal or two; to the BRTF people for theiroutstanding performances; and, to thePress Republican for their award winningheadlines (actually no big deal since noone entered anything in that classification).
A dear, dear friend of mine, whose nameescapes me at this moment, has passedaway. Have you noticed that no one dies
anymore? They pass away, go away, seemunderway to being away, get called (Idon’t know about ya’ll but I wouldn’t an-swer any such call) and so on. Wake upAmerica; its time to call a spade a spade. Ifthe United States is called North America,what does that make Canada- North, NorthAmerica? Upper North America? SouthernArctic?
I have been selling books like mad in mybookstore but, as I was afraid would hap-pen, they’re my favorites. Of course thereason I sold so many books was due to theCash for Books Programs which rebates$4,500 for any book that has only been readonce. Fortunately the U.S. computer sys-tem crashed again so I won’t be able to sellany books. You don’t hear me whining likethe latest whimpering from Car dealers?They couldn’t sell their trash cars until the“clunkers” program and now they whineand whine about having to file paperwork.See where GM has sold so many cars (15)that they may open a plant to build a cou-ple. Of course after they sold some of theirnew junk, they stopped helping customersthus showing their gratitude.

Labor Day and the end of summermay be fast approaching, but it's nottime to hunker down by the stove
yet. Not by a long shot. For one thing, theDepot Theatre is still going strong, with atoe-tappin' show that puts together thegreatest hits of Jerry Lieber and Mike Stoller.They were the legendary songwriting duowho came up with so many of the classic hitsthat helped define rock and roll, including"Youngblood" and "Stand by Me."

And this Sunday, August 30, presents arare treat for anyone interested in local his-tory, or maritime history, or American histo-ry in general. Author James L.

at the Maine Maritime Museum, and for ayear or two in the early 90s he served asFirst Officer on the Rose, the largest privatesail-training vessel in the United States. Inother words, he's a salty sea-dog who alsoknows how to tell a ripping good yarn.

It's part of their annual AugustAuthor series—past speakers have includedacclaimed novelist Russell Banks of KeeneValley, famed children's author and illustra-tor Stephen Kellogg of Essex, and the notednonfiction writer Thurston Clark of Wills-boro.

We all waited through July andearly August looking for sum-mer, so hopefully these last
several days of real summer weather is notgoing to be what we remember as our sum-mer.
The two Catholic churches really cele-brated their 100 year mark this past Sun-day, with a very meaningful Mass withseveral former Priests taking part in theservice. The congregation came out innumbers and were reminded of how fewfamilies were here at the forming of theirchurches and where they are today. Severalmeaningful special gifts were presentedand Assembly Woman Teresa Saywardpresented a special acknowledgement fromthe State honoring their 100 years of serv-ice. Then many of them went to Cricketsfor a meal together. The Ecumenical com-munity conducted a successful VacationBible School this past week, with greatclergy participation and several impressiveteen helpers, making for another meaning-ful time for the children.
A reminder that the Town Board is in theprocess of establishing local laws to governoutdoor wood burning units. The appoint-ed committee has presented their findingsand suggestions and there has been onepublic hearing before making the finalplans. It was decided that there was still aneed for a second time for the public to
present their views. This meeting will takeplace at the Town Hall on Monday, Aug. 31at 5:30 p.m. If you have a concern plan toattend the meeting.
The Lindsay family held a great familygathering at the home of Richard & DonnaLindsay’s on Aug. 15. They recorded some37 members of the family, a few comingfrom out of state and many local familymembers. Plans are for them to make thisan annual event. We will soon be loosing agreat family, Ian & Dawn McCarthy andtheir two children Emma & Cole. Ian isreenlisting in the Military and the familywill be following him. Dawn plans to pur-sue some additional education, so we hateto see them leave us, but wish them well intheir future.

InBrief
While it’s exciting to cut your grocery bill significant-ly with coupons, there are great ways to save onnon-food items, too, especially personal care and
cleaning products. Many national drugstore chains offer whatthe retail industry refers to as “loyalty programs” that often fea-ture special deals on items in these categories. These store loy-alty programs include coupons for store credit that shoppers re-ceive when they purchase one or more of the promoted prod-ucts.
So how do these promotions work? Here’s an example. In mydrugstore’s weekly flier, the store advertises that if I buy a cer-tain brand of shampoo for $3.99, I will get a $3 coupon at check-out. This coupon is good for a $3 reduction on any product soldin the store. It’s almost like a gift card. I can use the $3 credit tobuy anything I want, it’s not tied to any specific item. Thesecoupons typically bear a statement such as, “Good for $3 offyour next purchase.” However, unlike a gift card, these couponscarry an expiration date, just as a traditional coupon does. Thisis the “loyalty” part of the program. The drugstore wants youto come back in over the next few weeks and shop again.
Since I will pay $3.99 for the shampoo but will immediatelyreceive $3 back at checkout for use on a future trip, the actualcost of the shampoo to me is just 99 cents. The $3 I spent on theshampoo comes right back to me in the form of store credit – thecheckout coupon.
Now, it’s always fun to get money back when you shop. Butthe wonderful think about loyalty programs is that you can usecoupons on the items involved in these promotions. And, usingcoupons in conjunction with the loyalty savings often results inbig savings to you, the shopper.
With the shampoo example above, let’s add a coupon into themix. For this brand of shampoo, I had a $2 manufacturer coupon.So, with the coupon my $3.99 bottle of shampoo cost just $1.99.I paid $1.99… and I also received that $3 coupon for my nextshopping trip. This deal just became what I like to call a “mon-eymaker!” When we figure that $3 coupon into the equation, Ipaid less than $2 for the shampoo and got $3 back. The storepaid me $1.01 to take that shampoo home.
You may wonder how often drugstores feature loyalty salessuch as this. The answer? Almost every week! Check the fliersof the large drugstore chains in your area and look for items with
text near them indicating thatthey will “pay you back” a cer-tain dollar amount in couponsfor purchasing the item. Thesekinds of payback deals are fre-quent and plentiful.
So what kinds of items areincluded in these sales? Almostevery kind of personal careitem you can imagine: tooth-paste, toothbrushes, shampoo,conditioner, razors, shavingproducts, makeup, even over-the-counter medicines are fea-tured regularly. Householdcleaners, air fresheners, laun-dry and dish detergent are often included in these sales, too. Ifyou use coupons in conjunction with the items involved, youcan often get the items in question for less than a dollar, andmany times, completely free. Better yet, there are times whenthe store will be “paying” you to take things home too. And anytime the store is paying me to shop, I’m smiling all the way tothe checkout lane!

Childhood anxiety on the rise
Arecent report in the Journal of personality and SocialPsychology revealed that, even before 9/11 and theWar in Iraq, anxiety levels among American children
had evidenced a marked increase.The first recorded anxiety measurements in the United States
among children were taken in 1956. By 1980, children scored sohigh on anxiety scales that scores for American children thatwere considered “normal” were higher than scores for childrenwho were psychiatric patients in the 1950’s. Some researchersfound that disconnected relationships, looming environmentalthreats, changes in the divorce rate, the birth rate and the crimerate all had strong correlations with childhood anxiety.
“Surprisingly, economic indices had little independent effecton anxiety. Apparently, children are less concerned with whethertheir family has enough money than when it is threatened by vio-lence or family dissolution.”
While there is no “definitive “cause and effect link regardinganxiety disorders, there does seem to be a set of factors that influ-ence childhood anxiety. Having a parent that has struggled withan anxiety disorder may predispose a child to the same illness.Women and girls suffer anxiety at much higher levels than theirmale counterparts.
Unlike men, women and girls are expected to look like the air-brushed models in magazines or the surgically sculptured ac-tresses that appear to be flawless to the naked and naïve eye. Thenatural development of an ordinary woman is to develop hipsand increased body fat, both biological conditions favorable topregnancy. These undeniable biological factors go against thecurrent more angular female archetype. As women and girlsreach higher for even more unrealistic goals, is it any wonder thatwomen are more anxious than men.
Although men are more aware of their appearance than in pre-
vious generations, most mendo not judge each other soharshly about their appear-ance. While, I have had morethan a few comments regard-ing my burgeoning waistline, Ihave had as many commentsabout my graying but plentifulhair. For the most part, menjust don’t comment at all in themanner that women do regard-ing appearance. Remindingourselves that very few peopleare living a perfectly happy lifewith a taught waistline, a fatwallet and a job that they love, might be time well spent.
Chronic anxiety takes a toll. Anxiety often predisposes the suf-ferer to concurrent episodes of depression. Anxiety is also linkedto a higher incidence of physical problems such as heart disease,asthma and gastrointestinal upsets. Parents should pay attentionto anxiety in their child. All children have fears and become anx-ious, it is when the depth of the fear and the duration of the anxi-ety become prolonged that anxiety may be a problem.
The good news is that many children respond favorably onceprofessional help is made available. A variety of medications areavailable that also help the sufferer to recover a balance in theirlives.
With concerns about the environment, terrorism, child abduc-tion and the possibility of a job loss ever present, our world ismore uncertain than ever. Parents can help by acknowledginganxiety in their child and if warranted, by getting help. Remem-ber all kids count. The writer can be reached for comment [email protected]

Follow School Follow School Follow School Safety Signs! Safety Signs! Safety Signs!
Yellow flashing lights on a school bus means the bus is preparing to stop and load or unload passengers. The red lights mean that loading or unloading is taking place. NYS Vehicle and Traffic Law (1174) requires all motorists to always stop for a school bus with red lights flashing on all roads, including multi-lane or divided highways, on school grounds, in driveways or parking lots everywhere. Each year in the United States about 10 children are killed by motorists who pass school buses which have stopped to load or unload passengers. During the 1994-95 school year in New York State, 9 children were injured by motorists who passed loading or unloading school buses on the right or left side of the bus.
DRIVERS SAFETY BUS SAFETY • Instill child safety • Obey all traffic lights & signs • Be prepared to stop when driving near parks and playgrounds • Look for the unexpected when children are congregated • Drive to suit conditions and situations • Use good judgement when picking up children in playground areas • Exercise extreme care on rainy or bad weather days • Always stop your vehicle for school buses loading & unloading
• Stay out of the road while waiting for the bus • Board the bus without pushing or shoving • Take a seat promptly and stay there until it’s time to leave the bus • Don’t stick your head or arms out of the window • Don’t throw things about the bus or out the windows • Keep reasonably quiet • Keep feet, books and other things out of the aisle • Leave the bus carefully • If you must cross the road, wait for the driver’s sign to cross

“It's part of the risk the agency assumed when they de-cided to test... their sadly mistaken view of the law by purs-ing an expensive and debilitating enforcement actionagainst a small business,” he said.
The case arose out of an APA determination to assess a$50,000 fine on the farm for building three two-story mod-ular homes on resource management land without an APApermit. A cease-and-desist order prevented further con-struction on the unfinished homes during litigation.
In November 2008, however, Acting Essex CountySupreme Court Justice Richard B. Meyer ruled in favor ofLewis Family Farm, finding that the houses were for agri-cultural use and therefore exempt from APA permit re-quirements.
Represented by State Attorney General Andrew Cuomo’soffice, the APA appealed the decision, but a five-membermid-level appeals court unanimously affirmed Meyer ’s rul-ing in their July 16 decision.
The loss represented the first major one for the APA in anArticle 78 proceeding.
“Until this case, the APA had an aura of invincibility,” saidLewis, who claimed previous attempts to challenge theagency have failed because too many area attorneys seek ad-vice from the APA on how to handle cases against them.
No further appealThe Attorney General’s office had until 5 p.m. on Aug. 17
to request another appeal, but declined to do so. The motionfor legal fees had the same deadline, but was filed Aug. 13.
“The state will not appeal the Appellate Division rulingregarding the Lewis Family Farm,” stated APA spokesmanKeith McKeever. “The Adirondack Park Agency believes theimpact of the court's decision is limited because of the na-ture of the case.”
But advocates of Lewis Family Farm disagree, includingthe New York Farm Bureau, which submitted a brief sup-porting the farm. The organization had urged the state notto pursue an appeal following Meyer ’s decision.
“We are grateful to Governor Paterson for recognizingthat pursuit of this case was not in the continued public in-terest,” said Dean Norton, president of New York Farm Bu-reau. “This case was an important precedent for the rightsof our farmers to conduct basic agricultural practices with-in the Adirondack Park, which is why we fought so vigor-ously for the Lewis family.”
Although the case was strictly about farmworker housing,Privitera said, it sent a “clear signal” the APA needs to fol-low the law the way it’s written; not the way they interpretit.
‘A rogue agency’“We fought this case because somewhere along the line,
somebody’s got to draw a line in the sand and tell the APA,‘You’re off the reservation, you’re a rogue agency and youneed new management,’” said Lewis, who has long blamedAPA administration for stifling the viability of Adirondackcommunities. “We need the APA, but not this APA.”
Lewis called for the resignation of top APA officials, in-cluding APA chairman Curt Stiles, legal counsel John Ban-ta, and enforcement program supervisor Paul Van Cott.
Privitera said the APA was motivated by personal animusin its suit against the farm and misguided in its attempt tohinder farm development, arguing viable farms protectopen space.
“This was not just a legal mistake; this was a major poli-cy blunder to disregard the beauty and art of the APA Act asa protection for farms,” he stated. “It was never about theenvironment; it was never about visual impact or anythingcontained in the provisions of the [APA] Act.”
‘An increment of justice’In addition to the $208,000, the farm has also suffered oth-
er setbacks as a result of the lawsuit, said Privitera, whocalled the recovery of attorney’s fees “an increment of jus-tice.”
“We have been unable to use these unfinished farmhous-es for two years because of this suit,” he said. Also, the farmspent another $78,000 in legal fees that are not recoverablebecause they were incurred before the suit formally began.
“The Lewis Family Farm’s business plans have been dev-astated by the agency,” wrote Lewis in his motion affidavit.
While Privitera said suing for damages would be an op-tion, neither he nor Lewis would comment on whether theywould consider doing so.
If history is an indicator, the motion for legal fees is like-ly to be granted in court. Privitera said the government isalmost always ordered to pay when such a motion is broughtforth, and many such claims are not even challenged.
“Very rarely does the federal or state government ever as-sume the very heavy burden to show their position was sub-stantially justified,” he said.
Meyer is charged with issuing a decision on the motion,and a Sept. 4 hearing has been scheduled, but will only beheld if the judge deems it necessary.

The service was led by Diocesan Administrator Fr. Terry LaValley, who is serving in the temporary absence of a bishop.He said the generations of church-goers at St. Philip of Jesus have been blessed by such an inspiring place of worship.
“This has truly become a house of prayer for all people,” he said in his homily. “I congratulate you as you make this sig-nificant milestone in the history of your parish.”
As part of the celebration, officiants consecrated a new crucifix to hang above the church's tabernacle. The cross, madeout of basswood, was crafted by local woodworker John Anderson, while the corpus was handcrafted and shipped fromRome, Italy.
Following mass, State Assemblywoman Teresa Sayward spoke on the value of enduring, community-supporting church-es, and presented the church with a resolution from the Assembly with congratulations on its centennial milestone.
St. Philip of Jesus parish first opened for midnight mass on Dec. 24, 1909 under the leadership of Fr. Hector Mignaron.Named for a 16th century Franciscan friar who was martyred in Japan, it began with a group of 60 families who contributed,on average, most of their yearly income to fund its construction. Prior to then, the many French and Irish Catholic fami-lies living in Willsboro had to travel to St. Joseph's church in nearby Essex to attend mass.
Today the church is led by Rev. Scott Seymour, who spoke of the church's historic and ongoing ministry in the commu-nity.
“We're not just celebrating bricks and mortar;” said Seymour, “we're celebrating living stone.”Seymour said at least 60 people had contributed their time and talent in some way to the 100th anniversary celebration,
which he called an important milestone.“I think it's an opportunity to reflect on our history and look at building a stronger church for tomorrow,” he said.

A park in trouble, part II
Last week’s column,which focused on the“state of the park”
and the dearth of opportuni-ties for area youth, generateda great deal of interest andconcern. Several readers re-marked on the ‘Catch 22’ as-pect of life in the Adiron-dacks.
Sue H. from Schroon Lakeremarked, “It’s (the park) abeautiful place to live, but noone can afford to live here!There’s nothing but low pay-ing jobs, with few benefits orjust seasonal employment, which requires long hours duringa short timeframe. What kind of future is that?”
From Upper Jay, John L. asked, “If the state’s really wor-ried about the future (of Adirondack youth) they should of-fer incentives to bring them home after they finish college.The federal government offers loans for medical school stu-dents, which requires doctors to work in a rural area for sev-eral years to pay off their debt. But, what could local stu-dents do around here after they finished college, work forORDA or the highway department?”
Many changes have occurred over the years to bring aboutpresent situation, where an aging population is amplified byan exodus of youth. The last major boost to the region’s pop-ulation occurred when the Northway was completed in 1967.After the interstate was completed, many Adirondack com-munities experienced an influx of newcomers.
Prior to the completion of the interstate, most employmentopportunities were limited to just the local communities. TheNorthway allowed workers to commute many miles to workin the cities of Plattsburgh, Glens Falls or Saratoga. Beforethe interstate, road trips were limited to traveling on thewinding, old Route 9.
In Elizabethtown alone, over a half dozen families relocat-ed to town on the coattails of the new highway. Many of thenewcomers were young professionals and most arrived withfamilies in tow. Across the region, local school systems expe-rienced a significant boost in class sizes.
Today, the trend has been reversed. Young people are leav-ing the park, while those that are returning are often retired.Bill Osborn, director of Tourism and Economic Developmentfor Hamilton County, is a prime example.
“I’m a composite of the typical Adirondack resident to-day,” Osborn revealed. “I was born here and left for businessopportunities elsewhere. I made my money and decided toretire here. Others have done the same, but they settled forsecond homes and usually leave during the cold months.”
It’s a fact that children grow up faster today, with less in-
nocence and greater pressures than ever before. They are ex-posed to more due to the proliferation of the new media.
Cable and satellite TV provide over a hundred channels,and the Internet offers even greater exposure. With the clickof a mouse, today’s youth have the world at their fingertips.And often, what they see is much more interesting and excit-ing than what is available locally.
They watch their parents working at two or three jobswhile struggling to get by and they don't want to do thesame. Young people need excitement, they want to have fun.They need opportunity and many don’t believe it can befound here.
Unfortunately, many local communities can no longer sup-port or offer recreational options like a bowling alley, amovie theatre or a gymnasium. There are a number of com-munities that don’t even have a local diner or similar socialcenter, where kids can gather. Although local communitiescontinually strive to provide options for visitors, they haveoften neglected to provide similar opportunities for theiryouth.
Is it any wonder that when the day comes for a local kid toget out of town, they jump at the option? Despite a plethoraof outdoor recreational pursuits, there is very little else leftto offer them.
Across the park, options for viable, lifelong employmentopportunities have largely diminished over the past 20 to 30years. The days of extraction industries are gone. The minesof Tahawus, Witherbee and Lyon Mountain have all closed.The forest products industry is similarly withering.
Today, the Ticonderoga pencils used by the children inTiconderoga are no longer manufactured with wood fromour local forests. Globalization has allowed cheaper woodfrom Malaysia to be more cost effective in the manufacture ofpencils than the trees in our own backyard.
Small towns are atrophying from the lack of opportunity.We must begin to offer employment options beyondtourism. Communities need business, but businesses requireconsumers. If if weren’t for the friendly Stewart’s Shops,many North Country communities wouldn’t even have a lo-cal grocery store or gas station. The Olympic Regional De-velopment Authority has provided a beneficial investment inLake Placid, and it has in North Creek. A trickle down affecthas also helped some of the peripheral towns, such as Wilm-ington, Chestertown and Saranac Lake.
However, there is a palpable resentment from some of thepark’s other communities over this arrangement, while manydownstate residents view the situation as living on thestate’s dole.
“Lake Placid wouldn’t exist if the state didn’t subsidize it.Neither would Tupper Lake, if Sunmount closed,” argued
June P. from Paul Smiths.“Our region needs anew industry. Sure,we will always havethe service industry,but who wants to beservants in there ownland?”
“The state has takenaway the ability formany Adirondack res-idents to earn a living,they’ve locked up theland in regulations,”explained Bill Osborn.“They must invest as much money in the preservation of thepark’s communities as they have in the preservation of thepark’s land.”
“We need to find an environmentally friendly, low impactindustry to bring their business to the park. We need to haveeconomic development incentives and they have to be signif-icant. We need software designers, production services, filmor other employers,” Osborn continued, “and with the prop-er infrastructure, local communities can promote telecom-muting so that their employees can take advantage of thequality of life options the region offers and still maintain acareer.”
In essence, the Adirondacks can no longer be viewed as agiant amusement park for tourists and second home owners.If communities are going to thrive rather than simply sur-vive, there is a desperate need for well paying jobs that relyon intellect rather than extraction.
The same quality of life issues, which many consider soimportant in attracting new business and new homeownersto the region, are rapidly deteriorating as school districtscondense, communities contract and bright flight drawsyouth from their home towns
If visitors begin to perceive the region as consisting ofsmall, dying towns separated by long stretches of desolateroadways, the future of the park will be sealed.
The Adirondack region must offer more than a few, sea-sonally prosperous communities like Lake Placid, LakeGeorge and Old Forge. The effort will require imaginativeminds, creative opportunities and a major investment in in-frastructure. If preservation of the land is the ultimate goalfor the park, there must also be a corresponding effort initiat-ed to insure the preservation of the park’s small towns.These communities are central to the ‘quality of life’ thatmakes the region so unique.
The endeavor will require a major investment in ouryouth, for they will determine the future of both land andcommunity. We must provide them with an inheritance thatoffers more than busing tables or turning downbeds.

RAY BROOK — While the state Dept. of EnvironmentalConservation is defending itself against arguments fromenvironmentalists who claim the agency is not beingaggressive enough in removing structures from statewilderness, local officials are decrying that such destruc-tion of 100-year old buildings lacks respect for Adirondackculture and history.
Under a mandate of the State Land Master Plan, the DEChas for years been removing or destroying fire towers,lean-tos and ATV trails. The practice has gained promi-nence as the state continues to acquire additional land forthe Forest Preserve.
But for local officials, the practice of burning down 100-year old structures is nothing short of ethnocide – robbingthe local population of their heritage simply to conform toa vague notion of “wilderness character.”
Newcomb Supervisor George Canon would like to seethe historic structures preserved. He serves on the board of
directors of Adirondack Architectural Heritage, an advoca-cy group seeking to have Adirondack buildings recognizedin the same manner as structures elsewhere.
”It’s extremely important not to lose our culture here,”Canon said Tuesday. “To lose that is to lose our way oflife.”
In a letter published in a recent edition of AdirondackExplorer, DEC Regional Directors Betsy Lowe and JudyDrabicki defended DEC against attacks from those whoargue the agency has not pursued the removal of non-con-forming structures with enough vigor.
The letter observes that DEC has aggressively undertak-en the removal of 10 fire towers on recently acquired stateForest Preserve. Sixteen fire towers have also beenremoved from state lands of other classifications. DEC hasalso closed 130 miles of Jeep and ATV trails.
An additional 97 miles of snowmobile trails have alsobeen closed on recently acquired state land as well as 560tent platforms and three lean-to clusters.
“DEC is engaged in Park-wide planning with a numberof other state agencies to improve compliance with theSLMP,” the letter states. “We would emphatically argue
that DEC is with the plan and working hard to meet thebest interests of the public.”
But Canon argues that the systematic destruction ofstructures built by the ancestors of Adirondack residents —especially fire towers and swinging bridges – is a primaryproblem with the State Land Master Plan.
Canon suggested that before any private group or entitytransfers land to the state, they should include a restrictionthat the structures must not be destroyed.But DEC hasmaintained that its practice of destroying fire towers andother structures is in line with the State Land Master Plan.
“Non-conforming uses resulting from newly-classifiedwilderness areas will be removed as rapidly as possible,”the SLMP states. The document specifically lists fire tow-ers as being non-conforming within wilderness areas.
Local officials are calling for the SLMP to be reopened tochange the law regarding provisions they see as a brashlack of respect for the human population in the park.
But Adirondack Park Agency Chairman Curt Stiles saidthis week that agency reform and amendments to the APAAct should come first.
Officials object to destruction of historic structures on state-owned land
