North Country residents talk gun control, mental health

PLATTSBURGH — Katie Falzetta isangry.

“Nothing was taken care of after theshootings in Colorado and Virginia Tech,”said the Plattsburgh resident. “I am sickand tired of hearing elected officials saypray for those who died.

“Gun control needs to be taken care ofimmediately.”

In the wake of the deadly shooting inConnecticut that claimed 26 lives, 20 ofthem children, the nation has begun aheated debate about gun control, alsotackling issues such as access to mentalhealth care. In the North Country, suchopinions run deep and are exploding tothe surface as the country heals from thislatest tragedy.

“They already have gun control,” saidMary Vann, co-owner of Vann’s Gun Shopon the Bradford Road in Plattsburgh.

“They have full background checks onanyone who buys a gun.”

She doesn’t think gun control works asthe only people it affects are honest, law-abiding people. Criminals do not live in aworld where law applies to them, shepointed out.

She further pointed out that a so-called“assault” rifle is merely a semi-automatic,and therefore a hunting rifle fits the samedescription.

“There is no such thing as an assaultrifle.”

Her husband, Marvin, added that theassault rifle, such as the one used in theshooting in Connecticut, actually usesmuch smaller ammunition than manyhunting rifles.

Mrs. Marvin said it seems some Ameri-cans want to take the liberties of otherAmericans away, and if the governmentkeeps pushing people, eventually peoplepush back.

Dr. Martin Luther King Mini grants availablePLATTSBURGH — Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. once said, "Life's most

persistent and urgent question is: 'What are you doing for others?'"Each year, Americans across the country answer that question by

The North Country Regional Volunteer Center located at the UnitedWay of the Adirondack Region, Inc. is remembering Martin Luther KingJr. Day Monday Jan. 21, by promoting volunteerism throughout Clin-ton, Essex, Franklin, Hamilton, Jefferson, Lewis, and St. LawrenceCounties.

CLARKSON — A group of Cornell Cooperative Extension ofClinton County 4-H youth members were awarded the First PlaceChampions Award at the First Lego League (FFL) Competitionheld on December 1, 2012 at Clarkson University in Potsdam, NY.The team named the “E.N.I.A.C. Masterbots” consisted of home-school 4H middle-school students: Sullivan Kyle of Hemingford,QC, Vienna Ainsworth of Plattsburgh, Liam Sayward of Peru,Benjamin Caito of Jay, Bradley and Christopher Neureuther ofWest Chazy, and Trent Yourdon of Keeseville. Homeschooledhigh-school sophomore Vaughn Bernard of Peru provided guid-ance and instruction in robotics. At the competition, the team wasevaluated in three areas: project development, robot perform-ance/design and teamwork. Sixteen teams competed in theNorthern New York Championship Tournament. The E.N.I.A.C.Masterbots have been invited to participate at the national FFLWorld Festival in St. Louis, MO in April 2013.

The First Lego League is a national program that combines ro-botics, computer programming and engineering by using Legobuilding blocks to construct robots and to program them to suc-cessfully complete tasks. The students also are expected todemonstrate the FLL Core Values (teamwork, Co-operation? andGracious Professionalism? ) and complete a project based on atheme. The theme of this year's competition was Senior Solutions.

During the competition, teams sent their robots through an ob-stacle course of sorts, programming them to complete tasks re-lated to activities that would be of interest to senior citizens orrelated to issues senior citizens experience. For example, one ex-ercise required the robot to turn on a video device that seniorsmight use to stay in contact with their loved ones. Teams accu-mulated points based on successfully completed tasks.

While this was certainly the most exciting part of the event, itwas only one aspect of the competition. In addition, each teamwas required to give a group presentation on how they portrayedthe FLL Core Values and participate in a team challenge wherethey were evaluated on their teamwork ability. The Masterbotstalked about the challenges they overcame and the friendshipsthat were formed.

Lastly, each team was asked to develop a solution to a prob-lem senior citizens experience. Each team identified a senior part-ner to work with and interview. The Masterbots chose to workwith a local retired college professor who expressed his biggestdaily obstacle was misplacing important things he needed. Oth-er team members' grandparents echoed his issue. The team eval-uated current products on the market and identified changes and

modifications that would be needed, believing that if an effectiveproduct existed, seniors would already be using it. The team thendesigned a device and interface system that would assist seniorcitizens in locating important items. The team applied for a pro-visional patent with the help of the Shipley Center for Innova-tion at Clarkson University.

The team will continue to improve their robotics design andfurther develop their product as they prepare to attend the WorldFestival. They will be among only 85 teams from around theworld who are invited. Winners from the various state, regional,and country competitions receive invitations to attend the WorldFestival based on a lottery system. This year the 1st Place Win-ner of the Clarkson Competition was invited to attend.

“All the team members enjoyed their experience” said TrentYourdon of Keeseville, “I learned a lot about robotics. But evenbetter I learned more about my friends. I made good friends.”Bradley Neureuther of West Chazy summed up the thoughts ofthe team members when he said, “I am definitely doing it againnext year. I learned a lot and it was a whole lot of fun.”

WILLSBORO — After almost 40 years inthe business of numbers, Champlain Nation-al Bank President and CEO Jon Cooper islooking forward to a morning walk.

“I’m getting up in the morning and takinga walk with my wife,” said Cooper, who isretiring from the bank effective Feb. 1. “ThenI am going to say, the day is ours, what doyou want to do with it?”

Cooper entered the financial world at theage of 21, working for a public accountingfirm before getting into the banking indus-try.

“I have stayed in banking the entire rest ofthe time,” he said.

In April of 2006, Cooper was hired as thepresident and CEO of CNB, and will have al-most served seven years in that positionwhen he departs.

Champlain National Bank operates an of-fice in Crown Point.

“I will be around for a couple of weeks tohelp with the transition, if needed,” Coopersaid about turning the reigns over to his suc-

cessor, Joseph Shaw. “If we need a couplemore weeks, I will do that. If not, then I willmove along.”

Cooper said that while many would lookat the numbers and spreadsheets to deter-mine the success of the company during histenure (to which he said, “the bank is in anextremely strong position with a solid bal-ance sheet,” increasing revenues from justover $650,000 in 2006 to near $1.8 millionnow), he would look at the perspective thatthe customers have.

“I think we have significantly changed theimage of the company,” Cooper said. “Wehave re-focused on what it means to be acommunity bank. We have been more in-volved in the community not only because itpays back for the bank, but you have to bewilling to give back what you get.”

Part of working with the community wasunderstanding the customer.

“You have to react to the client or cus-tomer and think about if you were them andreact in the way you would want to be treat-ed if you were in their shoes and communi-cate with them appropriately,” Cooper said.

Cooper also talked about the services they

offered customers in the wake of tropicalStorm Irene.

“We were the only bank that came out witha special loan program after Irene,” he said.“We responded within weeks and we havehad zero delinquencies on those.”

Cooper said that community involvementis something that he has noticed throughouthis time at CNB.

“The thing that amazes me about this com-munity is that you can reach out to the keypeople around here and always get a callback,” he said. “That, to me, is why this com-munity has not seen a huge swing down-ward. It’s about what is best for the region.You do not see one town against the other ifit is for the betterment of the region.”

Cooper also has served as the president ofthe Plattsburgh Rotary Club, where hehelped implement a mentorship programthrough Plattsburgh State.

“We would pair students up with businessleaders and let them go from there,” Coopersaid. “I had three students that came to workwith me in the program, and all three gothigh-profile opportunities down the road.”

Cooper said that he plans to return to his

roots in western New York upon retirement,but will bring many fond memories of theNorth Country with him.

“I have truly enjoyed the time here,” hesaid. “It is a great community with peoplewho are always available to lend a hand.”

North Countryman Editorial

Someone said, in the wake of the horrific tragedy thatclaimed the lives of 26 individuals in Newton, Connecticut,20 of them children, that the families had likely already pur-

chased Christmas gifts for the deceased.With the holidays here and the nation not only still in mourning

but gripped by a bitter debate centered around guns, it is difficultnot to consider how intensely painful it must be for those familiesright now.

It is healthy to grieve, and it is alright to be sad, even angry, butanother important thing to remember in all of this is our own lovedones.

We should do this year round, but now especially, during the hol-idays and in the wake of tragedy, pull them close and tell them howmuch they are loved and cherished.

It is not fathomable for many of us to imagine the holidays with-out our loved ones, and since we do have them here with us, makean extra special effort to tell them, not only that they are loved andcherished, but why they are so important to us and how they fill uswith light and love.

Also, reach out to neighbors and tell them they are valued, evenloved.

And not necessarily more importantly, but important all the same,reach out to individuals who are not only alone but who might bestruggling. Let those individuals know they are valued, they are no-ticed, they are heard and they are important too.

Since the massacre in Connecticut, much discussion has centeredaround individuals in need, specifically those with mental healthconcerns, and how they are not receiving adequate care, how thesystem is failing them.

Let’s not, as a community of caring individuals, fail them either.If anyone knows of an individual who is alone, who might be strug-gling, who perhaps is avoided by many because he or she seems toalso avoid everyone, offer a smile, a handshake, a hug, perhapssome kind words to show such people that they are cared for andimportant.

Often, some people struggle through horrific circumstances in lifeand walk around thinking they are unimportant and no one caresabout them, and that simple act of caring can, at times, be enoughto push that individual toward a path of healing.

Try to listen if someone you offer kindness to wants to talk. Manypeople feel they are never listened to, and for them, all they mightneed is some small form of acknowledgement, something slightlymore than that courteous hello or how are you today.

It’s the holidays, and no matter what you believe this time ofyear, it seems that no one would likely be disagreeable to a littlelove and compassion.

It might make more difference in the world than you realize.

Cherish what’s most important

Idon’t know about you, but I’ll be happy toturn the page on 2012 and look forward tothe optimism 2013 will ring in, a few hours

from now. 2012 had its moments but by and large itwas filled with more bad memories and angerfilled drama than we’ve experienced in the lastdecade.

As we close out the year we’ve yet to resolve thefiscal cliff and all the battles that come with thelooming debt, tax rates and out-of-control spend-ing. But then, on the positive side, if you’re read-ing this we’ve survived the Mayan Calendar pre-diction that the world would come to an end at 6a.m. on Dec. 21 so from that perspective one couldassume 2012 could have been worse.

It just seems like 2012 left us hanging in so manydifferent ways. The election didn’t seem to resolveany issues. The economy hasn’t shown any cleardirection toward recovery or recession. Gasolineprices continue to ebb and flow at the upper limitsof way too high. Health care hasn’t gotten anycheaper and there still appears to be as muchranker over where the Affordable Health Care Actwill take us, as bureaucrats continue to interpretand draft the legislation which will likely be debat-ed in the courts for years.

Recovery from Hurricane Sandy’s effects on theeast coast has still left many homeless and withouta clear vision of their future. FEMA funds and in-surance coverage has been slow reaching those af-fected communities and the economic effects maytake years for those impacted to fully recover.

On the world scene Benghazi, Iran, the MiddleEast, North Korea and Afghanistan continue to betrouble spots and pose dangerous threats to worldstability in addition to the financial crises in Spain,Greece and other European countries.

Facebook has yet to live up to its record IPO of-fering providing a return on the investments madeby many who sought to acquire the darling socialmedia company. Groupon sees its popularityslumping and even one of the world’s largest

cruise ships, theCoasta Condordia,that ran agroundback in January nearGiglio Island, Italy,still sits precariouslyon its side awaiting afinal outcome on itsremoval.

Of course our yearwas brought to a closewith the tragic events at Sandy Hook ElementarySchool where 26 innocent lives were taken in a fewshort minutes by a young gunman. That on the heelsof the gunman in Denver who killed 14 while theywatched the newest Batman movie. These shootingsand others not involving as many casualties havesparked new interest in gun and assault rifle legisla-tion which has resulted in a massive buying frenzyfor guns, assault rifles and ammunition.

For all these reasons and more I’m looking for-ward to turning the page on 2012 and hoping thatwe can begin to address many of these issues thatcry out for resolution, cooperation, understandingand compromise. Our country is craving some feelgood uplifting news that begins to send the signalthat we are on the right path and better days areahead for all her people. Adversity they say buildscharacter and during the last several years we’veseen our share. Certainly many in our country haveseen far, far more than its share, but if we’velearned anything from our past we know we mustforge ahead, accepting the trials we face and learn-ing from the events of the day or we are destinedto repeat our errors of the past.

On behalf of all of us at Denton Publications andNew Market Press we sincerely hope your 2013 isfull of prosperity and joy for you, your family,your community, our country and this small planetwe share and call home.

Give to the United WayTo the North Countryman:Imagine our region…Remember when John Lennon released his iconic hit “Imagine” in Oct.

1971? In the song he sings about the worst-case scenario—imagine there’sno country or brotherhood of man. I do not believe we have gotten that badbut I do believe that with all that is happening around us we are sometimesforgetting the good that our donations to the United Way can accomplish.

Let’s take a moment and “imagine” hospice care with no funds for be-reavement services, or Life Flight lacking the funds to purchase fuel to car-ry a heart attack victim or suddenly ill child to needed medical care. The listgoes on and on. Every one of the 41 partner agencies of the United Way ofthe Adirondack Region relies on the generosity of North Country residentslike you and me to provide a vital service to our area. Last year 80,000 ofour friends and family in Clinton, Essex and Franklin counties receivedsome type of assistance through these agencies.

The life blood of the United Way is the employee campaign; employersinvite us in to present a short video and explain to the staff and employeesthe mission of the United Way. There is no “hard sell,” but most individu-

als, when presented with the facts, find it in their hearts to give what thecan. Employer provided payroll deduction makes giving so much easier forthe employee.

I would ask if you are an employer, human resources director or a con-cerned citizen, please contact the United Way at (518) 563-0028 to learn moreabout sponsoring a campaign in your workplace. I urge you to give youremployees the chance to be generous and to give back.

We are all part of a larger community and the United Way is here to as-sist all of us in supporting the agencies and programs that are so importantto the vitality of our region.

One parting thought—ANYONE can give to the United Way. You don’thave to give through an employee campaign. Direct billing is always an op-tion.

Curb tobacco advertisingTo the North Countryman:You can’t walk in to a store this time of year and not be bombarded with

bright colors, large signs, and displays that impact your purchasing deci-sions. Holiday shopping is a marketing frenzy for many corporations. Yetall year-round, tobacco companies spend over a half-million dollars a dayin New York State to market their addictive product. In 2012, the SurgeonGeneral reported that tobacco marketing has a direct link to a teenager ’s to-bacco use. In-store tobacco displays sendmessages to teens and children that distortthe social acceptability and popularity of to-bacco use.

The average tobacco marketing display ata convenience store or pharmacy is 32 squarefeet.

That’s equivalent to a area rug full of cig-arette packages and tobacco marketing lightbehind the cash register. Tobacco ControlPrograms throughout New York State areworking to educate the community about thepolicy options that help limit children’s ex-posure to tobacco marketing.

Dear Style & Substance:The holidays are here and I feel a sense of dread. I

used to enjoy the holiday season — it was a wonder-ful time of year with family and friends. Now, all I canthink about is the frantic preparations, the extremecost and the feeling of either not doing enough or ofbeing unappreciated. Do you have some ideas to makethis a better experience?

Our first recommendation would be to “ownyour feelings” without guilt. This means to real-ly know how and what you do feel by virtuallyspreading your feelings out on the kitchen tableand then taking a look at the who, why and whatof the holiday season. There is nothing wrongwith really understanding how you feel, especial-ly when you are longing to feel better. This exer-cise is for you to accomplish alone, and in doingthat, no feelings are hurt and your words havetime to align with your feelings, rather than justblurting out your dissatisfaction and frustration.We expect that you will be expressing your stressand fears with past years spent in exhaustion, dis-appointment, rushing and feeling like you haveno help. Next, take the typical events (or lack ofevents) you have hosted or attended and associ-ate past feelings with those as well. You may besurprised at what you find when you set the guiltaside and concentrate on this. It may take a fewdays to get to the root of your feelings. Remem-ber “when you don’t feel it, you don’t feel it.” Itis something that we all experience. This exercisewill also help you reconnect to a time when youdid enjoy the holiday season and to find those tra-ditions that may have fallen away from your cur-rent celebrations.

Next, talk with your family. The point to focuson is that you long to have more meaningful andless frantic times together. If you start early, youmay be able to make some significant shifts earlyin the season. You will be surprised to see thatthose you love think you love all this stuff, and ithas never occurred to them that you have a great

deal of stress or foreboding in gearing up for allthe festivities. Work on ways to simplify or elim-inate events and what might be nice replacementactivities by building a schedule that is fun, butwith plenty of down time to really just enjoy eachother. We have found that families usually like toget in on the planning and they like to be in-formed ahead of time, as they have other thingson their hidden agendas. They may step up andhelp in the kitchen with a “special dish” assignedto them. You may have to let go of some of the“control” in wanting it to be perfect by gracious-ly accepting the type of help that people can gen-uinely give. If you regularly get together withfriends, use the same idea and work together tocreate fun without the fuss. You will find that thisis on most planners minds, and there is a greatsense of relief when together you are seeking newsolutions.

Tradition can be defined as “delivery of some-thing to be learned, the transmission of customs,beliefs, and story from ancestors to posterity.”From this definition of tradition, we can see thathonoring family traditions can be fraught withemotion and complications. While traditionkeeps us grounded to our family, faith and cul-ture, they must be adaptable and flexible in orderto survive. Figure out the holiday events that aremost meaningful to you. Ask yourself, is it tradi-tion, spiritual or fun? Hopefully your celebra-tions can combine some of each. Traditions aremeaningful because they create wonderful mem-ories year after year and they bring the love ofpast generations with them. Adapt traditions gen-tly to meet the needs of the group or family. How-ever, do honor the people that have generouslycarried them on for the next generation. The hol-idays would not be happening without the grati-tude that they have been created for. Taking timefor meditation, prayer, church and sharing sin-cere love are what makes the holidays warm andjoyous.

As for gifts, do the same. Most of us find that

the search-ing for theperfect giftcan be over-whelming,expensiveand unnec-essary. Thegift of timeand atten-tion can bewrapped ina pretty boxand it givesthat special person in your life an event to lookforward to! A ski date, a girls night, a cup of cof-fee are the perfect way to say, “I celebrate our re-lationship” and want to spend more time withyou!

Plan ahead, without too much pressure on oth-ers. If you have a nice simple idea, then put it outthere to friends or families and get it on the cal-endar. Provide some ideas for the theme and whatpeople are responsible for preparing. Try to mixthe just “show up and let’s have fun” events withthe more labor intensive events for your own san-ity.

Whatever holiday traditions you honor, the rea-son for our winter celebrations is to bring hopeand joy to the world, to remind us that darknessis turning to light and we are meant to be messen-gers of good will and tidings of joy.

CHAMPLAIN — A petition passed themuster and now Village of Champlain resi-dents will vote on whether the village shouldbe dissolved.

The process could be lengthy if voters ap-prove a dissolution and would include astudy, public hearings and a second referen-dum.

But Village Mayor Gregory Martin doesn’tthink dissolving the village will save anymoney. He also doesn’t think it’ll happen.

“I am very optimistic this referendum willbe a resounding ‘no’ vote to keep the villageas it is.”

More than a year ago, resident KevinTriller requested the Village Board pursue adissolution plan, which members votedagainst.

Triller, whose farmland rests in the Villageand Town of Champlain, has said economics

are behind his motives.Most recently, Triller submitted to the

board a petition, which contained 75 signa-tures supporting the dissolution of the vil-lage.

“We had 10 days to examine the signaturesand make sure they were valid,” Martin said.

According to the most recent elector listfrom the Clinton County Board of Elections,69 of the names were valid.

“We sent Mr. Triller a letter certifying itwas a valid petition,” Martin said. “Now wehave 30 days from when the letter was sentto schedule a referendum.”

It appears the vote would occur in March2013, the same day as village elections.

Residents will be asked to vote yes or noon whether the Village of Champlain shouldbe dissolved.

A no vote would result in no dissolutionand would prohibit new petitions for fouryears. A yes vote would begin the process ofa dissolution plan.

The Department of State provides most of

the funding for such plans, which generallycost between $45,000 to $50,000. The villagewould have 180 days to develop the plan,which would require hiring a consultantgroup and deciding what to do with waterand wastewater services, buildings, equip-ment, personnel, finances and more.

Next, a number of public hearings must beheld.

The Village Board must approve the finalplan and there would be another referen-dum, which again entails a simple questionof yes or no on the matter of dissolution.

A yes vote would officially initiate the dis-solution process, although during that timesomeone else could come forward with a pe-tition with the required signatures, forcingyet another vote.

“The dissolution process takes a signifi-cant amount of time,” Martin said.

Martin said one size does not fit all whendealing when villages, and one must exam-ine services and taxes. Simply put, he does-n’t see where there will be significant sav-

ings.“We have reasonable tax rates and water

rates,” Martin said. “We have held those low.I don’t think you will see a significant sav-ings, but we will spend money to go throughthis, not to mention hundreds of hours ofcommunity work.”

Ultimately, the study will determinewhether there will be savings.

He believes the village has come a longway over the past five or six years, includingan at-risk audit by the State Comptroller ’s of-fice that was passed with “flying colors.”

One argument, Martin said, is the lack of apolice force, but that would be expensive andthe New York State Police, Clinton CountySheriff ’s Department and Border Patrol pro-vide adequate coverage. There is also no jus-tice court, but the town handles the village’sjustice needs.

“We have more and more going on hereevery year, and I think people realize that,”Martin said. “But we will proceed and followthe rules.”

Champlain dissolution process moves forward

Gun Controlfrom page 1

Gun sales have in fact gone up around the country as of late,and she said her store has been so packed lately she cannot func-tion in it.

“They have to start punishing the criminal and not the gun,”Mr. Marvin said. “They turn criminals loose and then criminalsgo out and kill somebody and they blame the gun.”

Tom Vagi also feels that all further gun control will do is makeit more difficult for law-abiding citizens to purchase firearms.He thinks there should be at least one armed individual in aschool who can defend the students in the school.

“You don’t see these shooters walking into Marine barracks,”Vagi said. “They prey on defenseless places.”

Vagi further stressed that Adam Lanza did not legally obtainthe weapons he used to kill those children, but stole them fromhis mother.

The 20-year-old, after killing his mother, who owned theweapons and shot at ranges, shot open an entrance to the ele-mentary school in Newton, Connecticut and killed six adultsand 20 children before using a handgun to kill himself.

It should be a people control issue, said George Cook ofPlattsburgh. He cannot own a weapon because of a priorweapons charge, but said he supports an individual’s rights toown a gun.

He thinks people should pay more attention to the signs thatsomeone is under stress and more money should be put towardmental health services.

“Don’t ignore them,” Cook said. “Help these people.”In fact, it can be costly and difficult to access mental health

services. In this region, there can often be long waiting lists foran individual seeking mental health services and, dependingon insurance, the matter becomes increasingly frustrating forindividuals simply seeking help.

“There already is a lot of gun control,” Cook said. “There arealso a lot of people reaching out who are not getting the helpthey need.”

Yet New York is already scrambling to negotiate gun control

laws, including closing perceived loopholes and banning largeammunition magazines.

The National Center for Policy Analysis reports that as of2011, roughly 47 percent of American households have guns inthem, and among the 15 states with the highest homicide rates,10 have restrictive gun laws.

“It’s a tough situation,” said Jay Ormsby of Plattsburgh.“Americans have the right to bear arms, but then there are thesemass shootings.”

He does think more thought should be put into the legalityof assault rifles.

Falzetta would ban all semi-automatic weapons. She thinksthe only place for them is the battlefield and not hanging on thewalls inside American households.

“We have lost too many.”She also doesn’t think a gun should ever be allowed within

100 meters of a child, except at a range. Falzetta would furthertrack how much ammunition individuals purchase and makethat information accessible on a database.

And like others, she too feels America provides inadequateand costly mental health care.

“Basically,” she said, “I think Americans need to grow up.”

PLATTSBURGH — It’s no longer about tweaking the healthcare system, says Chandler Ralph, President and CEO ofAdirondack Health.

“You have to take a scalpel to services,” Ralph said.She and leaders from CVPH Medical Center and Elizabeth-

town Community Hospital are uniting to urge elected officialsto protect vital services and jobs jeopardized by fiscal cliff anddeficit reduction negotiations in Washington, D.C. They areasking the public to join them in urging elected officials to re-solve the nation’s fiscal challenges without sacrificing health-care services and jobs in the region.

Already, hospitals and nursing homes have endured drasticcuts, and further reductions will undermine their ability to pro-vide the community with access to care.

“I go to D.C. several times a year, and it is difficult to comeback feeling anything but impending doom,” said StephensMundy, President and CEO of CVPH Medical Center. “It does-n’t appear they are looking anywhere other than health care,and we will be very much pushed to make very serious deci-sions.”

North Country hospitals and nursing homes have alreadybeen forced to contend with $320 million in funding cuts overthe next 10 years as part of the Affordable Care Act and otheradopted Medicare and Medicaid cuts. Health care reform hasfurther resulted in several hospitals in the region having to im-plement long-term restructuring plans, including reductions toworkforce, in order to continue providing adequate patient cen-tered care to their communities.

Area health care providers in the region say they would behit with another $432 million in cuts over 10 years by going overthe fiscal cliff. In 2013 alone, other Medicare payment policiesthat have expired or are set to expire represent an additional$11 million in losses for the region’s hospitals.

“Each of our organizations has had to deal with these fiscalrealities without compromising our commitment to quality care

and community need,” Ralph said. “Unfortunately, we are feel-ing increasing pressure to evaluate those services that fill acommunity need but in the long run are unsustainable.

“These are some of the most horrific cuts I have seen in 40years in health care.”

She pointed out that 280 lost jobs through layoffs through-out the North Country is a huge loss, and she is frightenedabout what health systems will be able to do moving forward.

“These cuts threaten our mission and could devastate theability in the future for us to reach out to our communities.

According to Elizabethtown Community Hospital commu-nications manager Jane Hooper, services such as chemothera-py and cardiac rehabilitation could be in jeopardy at Elizabeth-town Community Hospital.

“Elizabethtown Community Hospital is facing cuts of morethan $400,000,” said Rod Boula, administrator and CEO of thehospital. “That’s 2 percent of its gross revenues per year; and$4 million over the next 10 years. This will have a tremendousnegative impact on the availability of primary care services toour rural communities.”

Simply put, said Dan Ashline-Beaudet, president of SEIU,one of two employee unions at CVPH, the cuts “are going to beawful for the care of our patients.”

Mundy admitted that the nation cannot afford to sustain therate of growth in what is being spent on health care, andproviders must determine how to deliver greater value andbetter outcomes while expending fewer resources to producedesired results.

“However, if the extreme cuts to reimbursement being dis-cussed in Washington, D.C. do occur, the process is going to beincredibly painful and all the more challenging,” Mundy said.“When we receive significantly less money than it costs to pro-vide services, something has to give.”

Some of the solutions officials suggested included coordinat-ed care approaches for patients with chronic illnesses, medicalmalpractice reform, restructuring Medicare and Medicaid, en-couraging healthy lifestyles and thoughtful discussions on end-of-life care.

Have a Safe & Happy Holiday!DRUNK DRIVING PREVENTION CAMPAIGNWhen you drink and drive, you could be losing a lot more than your refl exes, your coordination and your good common sense. You could lose your life, or cause someone else to lose theirs. Don’t chance it. It’s Russian roulette. It’s a risk not worth taking. It’s your worst nightmare come true.

If your drink this New Year’s, be sure you have a ride home.

PLEASE DON’T DRINK AND DRIVE.

DID YOU KNOW?• More than 321,000 persons were injured in crashes where police reported that alcohol was present - an average of one person injured every two minutes.• About three in every ten Americans will be involved in an alcohol-related crash at some time in their lives.

PLATTSBURGH — The North Country will receive $90.2million toward projects in an attempt to jumpstart the econ-omy and create jobs.

The funds were awarded through the second round of Re-gional Economic Development Council awards.

“Strengthening our economy is a top priority I share withGov. Andrew Cuomo,” said Senator Betty Little. “The re-gional economic development councils are ensuring that thestate’s economic development funding priorities are locallydetermined. The best ideas to grow the economy come fromthe people, businesses, academic institutions, elected offi-cials, nonprofit organizations and others on the local levelwho see and know firsthand what works and where to in-vest these financial resources.”

Cuomo and his team traveled the state to view progresson projects that received state funding and assess ones in-cluded in the region’s 2012 application.

Job creation projects in Clinton County include $700,000for waterfront plans in Essex and Clinton counties for a vis-itor center in Rouses Point, community vision and actionplan for the Town of Champlain and a feasibility and mar-ket analyses of key sites in Rouses Point downtown.

Clinton County will receive $200,000 to replace watermain lines to service existing residential and commercial ar-eas.

BOCES of Clinton, Essex, Warren and Washington coun-ties will receive $100,000 to train 25 unemployed workers formanufacturing technician training.

Another $555,175 will go toward completing Strand The-atre restoration by making improvements to dressing roomsand the basement, installing staging resources and replacingthe main chandelier.

This final phase is expected to complete restoration of thetheatre.

Statewide, a total of $738 million was awarded for 725 eco-nomic development projects in every region of the state.

“For too many years, top-down economic developmentpolicies have failed communities across the state and not tru-ly invested in the unique resources and strengths of each ofNew York’s regions,” Cuomo said. “Now a new, bottom-upapproach is in place that brings local communities togetherto chart their own economic destiny.”

The awards are an important step forward in the commit-ment to help create jobs in the state, said Congressman BillOwens.

“Even as the economy continues to improve, we must domore to create opportunities for businesses and workersalike,” he said.

Cuomo’s new approach allowed regions to break out ofold statewide approaches that were seldom a good fit for

unique needs, said Garry Douglas, president of the NorthCountry Chamber of Commerce and co-chair of the NorthCountry Regional Economic Development Council. The newapproach is laying the foundation for real economicprogress.

“We thank Governor Cuomo and the assessment team forthis recognition of our region’s collaborative efforts, and for

their confidence in our ability to continue the progress wehave made in year one,” Douglas said. “From agriculture toenergy, manufacturing, tourism, our special defense role,broadband development and our Canadian connection, theNorth Country is enjoying unprecedented partnership withthe state of New York and unprecedented cooperation acrossthe seven counties.”
