Bianco: 'Diesels not operating'

A deadline was recently passed in theongoing saga of the New York StateDepartment of EnvironmentalConservation's directives concerningFreeport's Power Plant 2.

On November 26, Commissioner ErinCrotty of the DEC, citing an inability to

comply '. with ' --'emissions standards,ordered Freepoft Electric to close the.Power Plant 2 diesels by January 31. Thevillage announced it would appeal theruling, claiming fiscal hardship in light ofthe need to purchase higher priced elec-tric generating capacity even if the capac-

ity is not-actually used.The village continues construction of

its new turbines at Plant 2, with an antic-ipated start date of no later than April 1.

The Leader contacted a spokesperson•for Freeport Electric Superintendent HubBianco, who was in meetings in

Washington, D.C., and recieved the fol-lowing statement: "Freeport Electric is.complying with all of the requirements ofthe Title V Permit and the DEC ruling.The Power Plant 2 diesels are not operat-ing." . • •.

Pack 18 and 212 combineto make one super group of

young boys

.When Freeport's Cub Scouts con-vened in September there had beenmajor changes afoot over the summer.Instead of having two Cub Scout groupsin the village, Pack 18 and Pack 212 hadbeen combined to form one unit, thenew Pack 18.

Leading the pack of 80 first throughfifth grade boys is Cub Master ArtieJueres, Assistant Cub Master Pete Vono,and Assistant Cub Master Kathy August.The changeover couldn't have been bet-ter; a larger organization has meantgreater participation and success forScouting and the Cubs.

Among Cub Scouts in the TheodoreRoosevelt District, Pack 18 was'one of

. the highest selling units in this year's .popcorn sales drive held_ in October.Thirty percent of popcdrn.sales^re used. • ' <to pay council dues and fund Scoutingprograms throughout, the year. -~

Through Scouting, the boys havelearned how to give back to others. Cubsin Pack 18 collected food atThanksgiving and toys at Christmas forthe outreach program at Our Holy

Redeemer Catholic Church in Freeport.Holy Redeemer is the sponsor and char-ter organization for the Pack. The boysalso participated in the annual Veterans'Coat Drive.

The boys also learned that giving backis fun. Every December, Pack 18 CubScouts go caroling at the MeadowbrookCare Center on Merrick Road inFreeport. The boys sang'to and with theseniors on a Saturday afternoon witheach den passing around.small, wrappedpresents to the residents at the end of theconcert. Everyone had an enjoyabletime, complete with ice cream.

The scouts continued with a jam-packed schedule through the New Yearholding their annual Pinewood Derby onJanuary 24 at the Freeport RecreationCenter. Scouts in each grade raced theirhand-made cars against one another' inheats that lasted throughout the after-noon.

Village trustees hear complaints on high taxes, snowby Jim Golding

Village trustees served as the light-ning rod Monday for the impact ofhigher local and county taxes and therecent high snowfall as several resi-dents let them know about theirunhappiness over their higher tax bills.

But Deputy Mayor RenaireFrierson-Davis, presiding over theboard meeting in the absence ofMayor William Glacken, said inresponse that factors beyond the vil-lage's control - higher state mandatesfor the municipal employees pensionfund and increased county and schooltaxes - are major causes of their com-plaints.

Mayor Glacken was in Washingtonat a. Public Power Association meet-ing.

James Ward's comments were typi-cal of several residents' complaints, ashe noted that his salary hasn't risenalong with his taxes. "You're pricingme out of Freeport," he said.

"You can't hold the village account-able for all the tax increases," said Ms.Frierson-Davis, citing the share oftaxes that go to Nassau County and theschool district, along with the village'sshare of the New York StateRetirement System fund decided bystate Comptroller Alan Hevesi, whichdoubled over last year to $4.23 millionand accounts for half of the -village's

' portion of the tax increase."Speak to the comptroller. Speak to

the legislators," she said. "We've beentalking about this since last summer."

Several speakers called for morecuts in village spending and a reduc-

tion in staff.Gabriel Rossano offered an uncon-

ventional recommendation, "outsourcejobs (involving typing) to India wherewe don't have to pay the municipalemployees tax." Mr. Rossano repeat-edly demanded to know what the vil-lage planned to do on acting upon hissuggestion.

"We're not going to 'outsource anyjobs for 2004," the deputy mayorreplied. "We'll make note of your sug-gestion ... we'll discuss it."

Bernard Smith and UmbertoThomas, chairman and co-chairman ofthe Freeport Tax ReductionCommittee respectively, also calledfor additional cuts in spending andtaxes.

Mr. Smith charged that Freeport res-idents have "taxation without effectiverepresentation." He dramatized hiscomplaint by placing five boxes of teabags on a table in front of the boardmembers, alluding to the Boston TeaParty in which the colonists protestedoppressive taxes by Great Britain.

Mr. Smith also complained aboutthe electric rate increase and chargedthat village officials have not doneenough to develop other revenuesources and have not adequatelyinformed residents.

"You're not getting the word out,"he said.

Ms. Frierson-Davis responded that .information relating to budget hear-ings' and tax-related issues has beenpublished in the "Freeport Report"sent to all homeowners, in The Leaderand in Newsday and that the villagehas been trying to find "sources of rev-

enue that are not alternate taxes."She noted that in recent years feder-

al and state aid has decreased, whilestate-mandated requirements from allmunicipali t ies in New York haveincreased. Other than taxes, the villagerelies on fees and grants. "We do verywell with grants," she added.

Mr. Thomas quoted from the portionof the Declaration of Independencerelating to "taxation without represen-tation" and complained about the sizeof the budget and the need for morecuts. "I don't see anything being doneto tighten belts," he said. "I continual-ly hear about what can't be done."

The deputy mayor noted that cuts instaffing have been made, including areduction "in the police departmentfrom 102 officers to 94 and the elimi-

nation of several village positions thatwere already vacant.

Another resident. Hale Storm, urgedthe Village to charge fees to contrac-tors and Realtors who place thei r busi-ness signs on property where they areproviding business services as a wayto raise -more revenue. He said thebenefits of l iv ing in Freeporl out-weighed any negative factors stem-ming from taxes.

But Fran Trani. who recently movedto a co-op from Wantagh, said shewould have to give up her volunteerwork with cancer patients to return towork because she could not afford theincrease in her co-op fee. which sheblamed partly on the tax increase. Ms.Trani brought a sign to the meeting

A Boy Scout is...

r o u n da b> o u t

luckyA young man who did not get a chance to take part in

Scouting while growing up has missed some very specialtimes.

Hec did not get,the experience of putting on his firstScout uniformed'repeating over handover-until he knewby heart a pledge that sets timeless goals of character.

He did not get to participate, in father-son activities like: ,*.'.'."«•' •"" \\f. f< , - .'* "• . • ' .'. - '.'

the:pinewood model c a r derby: . • ' • ' ; -He did not work with his den mother and friends to earn

merit badges that would spread on his uniform like dan-dlions. He did not get turned upside down to show hispassage from one stage to another.

If he dropped out along the way, he did not get to joinin the camaraderie of camping trips. He did not go raftingor canoeing with his fellow Scouts and dads. He neverlearned how to camp in winter, to scale a rock wall or tofind his way out of the woods.

He did not take a trip to Village Hall, the county seat orthe nation's capital to learn how Scouting principles trans-late into good citizenship.

A Boy Scout is>lucky. " ' • ' • 'Arid the'Scout who.sticks it out all the way to the rank

of Eagle is even more fortunate. He has the opportunity topractice leadership skills, coordinating a service projectwhich requires that he not only do a good deed but alsoget others to help him do the work and provide the moniesneeded. Very few make it into this select group, but manyof those who have done so have gone on to make theirmark in life. One special guy we know says he willalways appreciate being nudged by his dad to stay inScouting just a little longer because making Eagle was soimportant to him later.

So many families have found Scouting a way to raisehealthy and happy young men. And for single parents,Scouting has also often helped fill a void.

Grandparents bringing up their grandchildren have alsofound the extended family of Scouting to be a big help.More than once a young boy has wandered into a Scoutmeeting, stayed for the milk and cookies and found a wayout of poverty and into a future worth living.

This week the Boy Scouts of America celebrate theiranniversary. It's a good time to thank any Scout leaders youknow, and to think about maybe volunteering yourself.

Is it cheating to help a friend withhomework?

When does paraphrasing cross theline to plagiarism?

And, If a teacher mistakenly leavesthe answers to a test open for an\one to

.see, does that constitute "public use'"?These and other questions on aca-

demic integrity led to animated discus-sion and debate in Deirdre McManus'sEnglish class at Baldwin Senior HighSchool as parl of a two-day lesson planon the subject for all n inth graders.

Academic integrity is just one of ihemany components of character educa-tion widely taught on all grade levels inthe Baldwin schools, but also a Board ofEducation policy given serious weighlby the district in recent years.

The high school lesson plan on aca-. demic integrity was developed byEnglish teacher Joan Bohbot, socialstudies-teacher Anita Zucker; and assis-tant principal Linda Kellner in responseto what they and other staff memberssaw as a frightening "graying" of soci-ety's ideas on cheating, plagiarism, and.ethical behavior. "It's an old problem butit has been taken to a whole different

height." explains Ms. Bohbot. "The. Internet makes it easier to cheat, but it is

also easier to check on the cheating."Now in its third year, the lesson plan

takes an interdisciplinary approach.Students are first assigned homeworkfor discussion in social studies onFriday with homework and discussioncarried over into English class Ihe fol-lowing Monday. The t iming is deliber-ate so students have the weekend toreflect on and possibly discuss (he topicwith their parents. The lesson is againreinforced in grades 10. I I and 12English classes with the reading and dis-cussion of relevant news articles.

As part of the lesson, students closelyreview the district policy. The policydefines the roles of students, parents andguardians, faculty, and administration,as well as what does and does not vio-late academic integrity, and a list ofconsequences for the vialation.

After reviewing the policy aloud withher class, Mrs. McManus told the stu-dents, "Now you know better. By thetime you graduate you won't have adoubt. You'll be proud of earning youreducation."

Snow-falloutKenneth Bagatelle, president of the

Northwest Homeowners Association,said he received numerous complaintsabout snow removal following lastweek's heavy snowfall. He cited thepresence of cars parked on streets,covered fire hydrants and infrequentplowing.

Ms. Frierson-Davis noted that a let-ter had been sent to homeowners inlate fall informing them to keep theircars off the streets and clear their side-walks, as well as other responsibilitiesin the event of a snowstorm.

Public Works Director LouisDiGrazia noted salt was not availablethis year on Long Island and the vil-lage has been unable to get sand forspreading on roadways.

Trustee William White noted thatanother problem the village encoun-ters in snow removal is complaintsfrom residents whose drivewaysbecome blocked after streets areplowed.

Mr. DiGrazia also said he did nothave the manpower to keep up with allsnow removal efforts in clearingFreeport's 89 miles of roads, six parks

and parking lots at the recreation cen-ter, Village Hall and the municipallots.

The deputy mayor told Mr.Bagatelle to "remind your members oftheir obligations to assist the village inclearing the streets."

Other businessIn the regular agenda, the board set

March 29 for a public hearing, torezone property at 10 Anchor Streetfrom "Residence A" to "MarineApartment-Boatel Condominium andCooperative District."

Also approved was an increase tothe senior citizen exemption for the2004 assessment roll to $2,862, upfrom $2,591.

A message from Mayor Bill GlackenDear Fellow Freeporters:

Lately, in speaking with a numberof residents at various meetingsthroughout the village, I find thatmany people no longer rememberhow often Woodcleft Avenue flooded.At its worst, it endured more than 130episodes of flooding a year with everymoon tide and local storm making theNautical Mile impassable to mer-chants, customers, and local residents.Since May of 2000, when the roadwayalong Woodcleft Avenue was elevatedover 2-1/2 feet, the Nautical Mile hasthrived as new restaurants, shops, andstores have opened and many existingbusinesses have expanded.

A year ago, January 2003, we beganthe most extensive and ambitious ofour flood elimination programs, thelargest, in the history of Freeport. Wecommenced construction work on thestreets situated in the so-called "floodbowl", another area'that endured fre-quent flooding following high tidesand the phases of the moon. .

The area is located in the south-cen-tral portion of the village that isroughly bounded by Atlantic Avenueon the north, Westside Avenue on thewest, Long Beach Avenue on the east,and Casino Street on the south. Itincludes that portion of RooseveltAvenue from Casino.Street to SouthLong Beach Avenue and Ray Streetfrom Long Beach Avenue to WestsideAvenue.

The project has taken 12 months sofar, and there are still finishing touch-es that must be completed, includinglandscaping. But to the residents onCasino Street, who have lived for ,

Obituaries

decades with the frequent floodingproblems, the project has made atremendous difference. Residents ofthe "flood bowl" were accustomed towatching the tides and the moon andautomatically moving their vehicles

.to higher ground, north of A t l an t i cAvenue, before each flood.

This $4.5 mil l ion flood el iminat ionproject was partly paid for with feder-al funding. The village received morethan $1.1 mil l ion toward the cost ofe leva t ing these streets from theFederal Emergency ManagementAgency. With the end of the "floodbowl" problem, the village is approx-imately 90% flood free. In anotheryear or less, the residents on Casinoand Cedar Streets may soon forgeltheir days of waterlogged lawns andflooded vehicles.

Another project that has had amajor effect on our residents is- theelevation of 23 homes in the village,again with the help of FEMA money.These homeowners have also come toenjoy their safer, dryer houses, whichare no longer plagued by frequentflooding. A portion of the cost of theelevation was paid for with federalfunding, while the remaining cost wascovered by the homeowners.

Flooding'had been a serious andlongstanding problem in Freeport fordecades, but it is one of many whichthis administration has faced head-onover the past seven years, and solved.There are many more challengesahead of us in the years to come as werebuild Freeport from the ground up,but working together, we cannot fail .. . . ' ' . Mayor .William Glacken

FOURTH GRADERS atLeo'F. Giblyn School inFreeport show offcompound machinesthat they designedand built themselves.From left are ChelseaCortes, Nia Belton,Komari Franklin,Zachary Lutz andMonique Robinson(kneeling).

Giblyn engineers create machines. Fourth Graders at Leo F. Giblyn

School in Freeport brought a science,lesson about .machines to life when theycreated their own compound machines.

For this unit, students in team teachersSuzanne Caravousarios' and MaryGarguilo's classes studied the six simplemachines—inclined plane, lever, screw,wheel and axle, pulley and wedge. Theylearned how each machine works, andhow these simple machines can be com-bined .to form compound and complexmachines.

Next, they created their own com-pound machines, combining two ormore simple machines to solve a specif-ic problem, like drawing water" from awell or measuring the weight of objects.Students built their machines, with thehelp of their parents, using materialsfound around the house.

SEAS Schoolkicks off Catholic

Schools WeekThe frigid weather kept most 'of the

ice bound streets of Nassau Countyfrozen and empty on Monday night,January 26. But at Roasty's Restauranton Merrick Road in Merrick thingswere cooking; it was packed with cus-tomers of all ages ordering burgers, sal-ads and the Roasty's specialty roast beefsandwiches.

The event was the annual CatholicSchools week kickoff, held by St.Elizabeth Ann Seton Regional SchooljnBellmore. .Through special arrange-'ment with.' the Roasty's management, .families and friends of the students, andfaculty could order their favorite dishes,knowing that 20 percent of the night'sreceipts would go to the school .fund.The result was a packed house.

Catholic Schools Week is a nationwide celebration that honors the history •of-the Catholic school system in, the -United States.. St, Elizabeth Ann Setoh (SEAS) par-

.ticipated in the festivities with a numberof events for the students and their fam-ilies, and for the community. Theseincluded open houses and tours of theBellmore campus (Grades 1-8) and theEarly Childhood Center (N - K and OurTime a parent and me program) inWantagh. The evening at Roasty's wasa great success. Receipts from theevening, and a donation from the man-agement, brought" $450 into the schoolfund.

And like real-world engineers, theyprepared a report to explain how theycreated their.machines and to evaluatehow successful each machine was atsolving its specific problem.
