DeWitt to split DOD in two Comm. Dick Robb opts in to early Retirement incentive

By Tami S. [email protected]

Seven town employees have elected to par-ticipate in New York state’s Early Retirement Incentive program recently adopted by the DeWitt Town Board. One of those individuals is Commissioner of Development and Opera-tions, Dick Robb.

An employee of 20 years, Robb said he

hadn’t been intending to retire any time soon, but when Supervisor Ed Michalenko approached him as an eligible candidate, he accepted.

“It was a surprise but the more I looked into it, the more it made sense,” Robb said. “I think it’s a good time and a great opportunity to move on and do something else. Certainly not just put my feet up.”

The state incentive includes one month of retirement credit for each year employed. With seven employees opting in, the town will save about $240,000 per year which will rise to almost $300,000 once it has met its obligations

High five!F-M girls win fifth straight

national championshipBy Phil Blackwell

[email protected]

And so the cross country dynasty continues at Fayette-ville-Manlius.

For the fifth consecutive year, the girls Hornets, under the guidance of coaches Bill and John Aris, took on all the top programs in the United States and beat them - handily, in this case - as it once again prevailed at the Nike Cross Nationals last Saturday in Portland, Ore.

Not only that, but F-M’s boys team, completing a late-season surge, finished second in its portion of the Nike Nationals - a performance that, just a couple of weeks earlier, seemed close to unimaginable.

Running again as the Manlius XC Club (teams are not allowed to run under their own school name), the F-M girls easily dismissed the challenges of 21 opponents. It finished with 27 points, well clear of Saratoga Springs (Kinetic XC Club), who was a distant runner-up with 104 points.

Those 27 points shattered the previous meet record of 51, which Saratoga set in winning the 2004 Nike Nationals, two years before F-M’s championship run started.

Perhaps it helped that the conditions were quite familiar to anyone with a Central New York background - cold tem-peratures (around 40 degrees), winds reaching 25 miles per hour. Accustomed to this climate, F-M proceeded with its latest milestone effort.

Three Hornet runners finished among the top six. Junior Christie Rutledge, who won the New York State Public High School Athletic Association individual cham-pionship on Nov. 13, earned second place in this event in

The ‘chosen’ oneslearning about foster care, adoption

By Tami S. [email protected]

Nationally, the average age of a child waiting to find a home is 8 years old.

Once children are free to be adopted, the wait can take as long as two years.

“In New York state, more and more we’re seeing children over the age of 13 coming into [foster] care sometimes for the first time,” said Onondaga County Family Court Judge Martha Walsh Hood. “Sadly, many children age out of the sys-tem without ever being adopted.”

Thousands of children come into [foster] care every year for various reasons including abuse, neglect or abandonment, she added. Through foster and adoption programs, such as those offered by the Onondaga County Department of Social Services, the chance for these children to either be reunified with their biological parents (this occurs about 53 percent of the time) or to find al-ternate nurturing homes proves increasingly hope-ful, and successful.

In the past decade, about 30,000 children have been adopted throughout the country.

“National Adoption Day is actually my fa-vorite day of the year,” said Walsh-Hood, who spearheaded the annual event nine years ago in Onondaga County. “To me, it’s actually magical because we’re creating forever families on the Friday before Thanksgiv-ing, which is a holiday season we usually spend with our own families, giving thanks for our blessings.”

One couple blessed this year with a new son is the Conleys of LaFay-ette. Three years ago, when Wendell and JoAnn became certified foster parents, they met who would become their third child, 4-year-old Dallas. On Nov. 19, it became official.

His father said Dallas is an upbeat, enthusiastic boy who loves to learn.

“His vocabulary is ex-cellent,” Wendell said. “When he came into the program, he was very behind and he’s doing quite well now. In first grade, he’s made a lot of strides.”

Initially, the Conleys biggest challenge with Dallas, a young boy who had experienced trauma early in life, was being able to communicate ef-fectively.

“He would become very frustrated and that could go off in a differ-ent direction … how he’d behave … he would hide under a table or he might drop to the floor and have a tantrum,” said Wendell, who credits patience in overcoming adversities.

The price of becoming foster and adoptive par-ents, he said, is tenfold.

“Making a difference in [Dallas’] life and just the affection and the love you receive from him in return … those are the most rewarding to me,” Wendell said.

Karen Vedder, an On-

ondaga County adoption attorney, has fostered three children, one of whom they adopted. She and her husband have been certified foster par-ents since 2001.

“I prefer long-term fostering,” Vedder said. “I want to like and develop a relationship with the child/children I foster. We initially wanted a girl because we had five bio-logical boys, so our first foster child was an infant girl we were later able to adopt.”

Their daughter is now 8 years old. The other two, now ages 20 and 22, came to the family as teenagers. Vedder said she considers them informally or unof-ficially adopted.

“The greatest reward is that you can really make a difference in a kid’s life,” said Vedder about foster-ing a child. “You can see changes pretty quickly. That’s very fulfilling.”

Families interested in becoming foster parents are required to take an 11-week training session. When they complete the three-part certification process; intake, train-ing and the home study, they are dually certified for both foster care and adoption.

“It’s hard emotional work to foster a child, but very rewarding,” said Mary Leahy, adoption supervisor for the On-ondaga County DSS. “As a foster parent, you are part of the team to assist the child to reunify with the biological parent. It is a success when a child can be returned safely to their parents. If it can’t be done, however, the foster par-ents most often become the child’s permanency resource, and that is a success, too as every child deserves a family.”

Foster parents most often meet biological par-ents at medical, school, visitation or therapeutic

settings. A relationship can be established that may lead to an agreement, should the child be freed for adoption. Legally, for this to occur, Leahy said, is for the biological par-ents and the foster parents to agree to a conditional surrender of parental rights, which may include yearly visits, letters and pictures.

“Foster parents are amazing people,” added Leahy, who emphasized their role in making a di-rect impact on the healing of families and in finding permanency for children. “Achieving these out-comes is both their re-ward and their challenge. Foster parents are the backbone of our agency; they make a difference as no one else can.”

national adoption day statistics• locally, 54 children were adopted Nov. 19 on National Adoption Day in the onCenter Ballroom, which included families from onondaga, lewis, oneida and oswego counties.• At least 25 of the children adopted were from the onondaga County foster care system.• Statewide, the number of children freed for adoptions is just over 6,000; the number of children freed for adoption but not placed in an adoptive home is just over 1,000.• in the Syracuse region, there are 341 children who are free to be adopted; 165 children are freed for adoption but not yet placed in an adoptive home.

Road to adoptions• When families complete the three-part certification process; intake, training and the home study, they are dually certified for both foster care and adoption.• The primary goal of foster care is family reunification, nationally that occurs 53 percent of the time.• in the situations where reunification is not successful, and a child and/or sibling group has been in a DSS foster home for at least 12 months, then the foster family may become an adoptive resource for the children.• over 85 percent of the adoptions in onondaga County are foster parent adoptions.• Some families choose to be certified as Adopt only, and that is fine. in those cases, the families would be eligible to adopt children who are freed for adoption but who will not be adopted by their foster families. • once Adoption Home Studies are complete, families would also be eligible to adopt children who reside outside of onondaga County.

Pearl Harbor Survivor NH6

From the mailbag

This time of year always brings me back to that chance encounter of several years ago. I was in Vermont on a sales call in a town nestled near the Canadian border. The colors of the fall leaves had past their prime, some had fallen, others still maintained a tone of their once brilliant foliage. The sun was shining, the air was brisk, but calm. A hint of winter filled the air.

I was inside my customer’s store when an elderly couple entered. The man was wearing one of those caps with a military insignia marking a time long past. I was at the counter filling out the invoice when the couple came up. They were actually purchasing one of the items I had just delivered. The man was tall. I looked up to read his cap, “Pearl Harbor Survivor.” With a dumbfounded look I said, “You were at Pearl Harbor?”

“Well, yes I was.” “You’re kidding...” He responded with a smiling nod. I continued, “Wow, I couldn’t imagine.” When the clerk finished ringing up his transaction, his

wife moved over to the bakery to continue with her shop-ping. Now the item they had purchased was a framed picture and quite big. With an eye to the double doors that lay ahead, and the trek to the parking lot, I said, “I would be honored if you let me take that picture out to your car.” He smiled and responded, “I would appreciate that.”

We continued with some small talk and as we passed though the double doors into the sunlight it suddenly hit me like a bolt of lightning. A chill swept up my spine, cringing my shoulders and swelling my ears. My breath staggered as I turned and looked him straight in the eyes.

“It was a sunny morning,” he told me. “Normally we would be up at 4 a.m., but because it was Sunday we got to sleep in. I was in the bottom of a double bunk bed. My ‘bunkie’ and best friend was already up. I was just laying there when I heard a boom. Our planes would practice bombing with sandbags and sometimes on the way back they’d try to land one in the smokestack of the utility plant. I figure they had finally done it and there was going to be hell to pay from the base commander.

“Suddenly we heard a large crash that brought everyone to their feet followed with more booms all around us. Our barracks were in the shape of airplane wings with a circle in the middle that was the mess hall. We immediately ran down the hallway towards it, bullets were raining down through the roof. The roof itself was made of copper and when a bullet

hit it, shards of copper would spray off, every bit as deadly as the bullets themselves. We came to the mess hall; the whole place was on fire. Guys were stumbling out on fire, others missing limbs. We grabbed those we could and headed back to the other end of the barracks. The bullets kept coming and guys were falling all about us. We all ran to the end of the hall and stopped at the exit door. One guy yelled, ‘We got to get the hell out of here.’

There was a pause. I said meekly, “Sounded like a good idea.” “Well,” he said. “Not really. As we ran out the

door and I looked up and at about the height of that lamppost (he pointed at one in the parking

lot) was a Zero. Guns blazing. I can still see the expression on his face. Everyone was running for cover. The planes were coming in one after another. A couple of us spotted a truck about a hundred yards across the field. We grabbed some wounded and made a mad dash for it. There were guys down everywhere. At the truck we started putting all the wounded in the back. Other guys were coming with more, and everyone went back for others. It was hard to tell the injured from the dead. The truck filled up quickly and we drove to the hospital. At the hospital doctors and nurses ran out to meet us. There were other casualties streaming in. They told us which guys to bring inside and which to leave outside. At one point, after putting a guy down on a table, a doctor came up behind me and said, ‘Hold still solider, this is going to hurt.’ He pulled a two-inch copper shard out of the back of my neck. ‘Missed your spine by an inch,’ he added. After things calmed down a bit, I immediatly started looking for my bunky. I looked all afternoon. No one had seen him. Later that evening, I was summoned to a building and taken to a room. There were a dozen or so bodies on tables with sheets covering them. I was directed to a particular one, and the sheet was pulled up to the chin. I immediately recognized the tattoo on the man’s chest as the one my bunkie had gotten with me on leave several months earlier. A piece of the cop-per roof had got him in the head.”

His eyes began to swell. “I exchanged letters with his family for awhile but eventu-

ally they stopped responding.” His eyes were tearing. “Maybe it was too hard for them.” I said. “You’re probably right.” He quickly gained his composure.

Together, we can make a differenceTo the editor:

For the past two weeks, residents of the Memory Lane Park neighborhood in Manlius joined hands and hearts to collect food donations for the F-M Food Pantry. To-gether we gathered more than 100 items, which will help feed some of the 120 families that access the food pantry each month.

During these economic times when giving is not easy, or for some, even feasable, I’m proud that my neighbors pulled together and dug deeper in order to make the holidays less stressful and a little brighter for those in

need.I encourage others to take action in their own neigh-

borhoods, to ensure that food banks all over Syracuse are well-stocked and armed with the resources neces-sary to continue to provide meals for members of our community. If each of us does something small (such as donating one can of food), together we can make big things happen. And that means making sure that no one goes hungry – especially during the holidays.

“Well, we sure gave it back to them at Midway!”

His smile came back. I said, realizing, “You

were at Midway?” But before he could an-

swer, his wife who had come out of the store, cut us off. “No more war stories. I’ve heard them all. It’s late and we have to get home before dark” she said, laughing.

I protested silently, “But he was at Midway ...”

I opened the door of his car for him. It was a red Cadillac. Ten or 12 years old and in pristine condition. I knew it was one of the few material things he ever al-lowed to spoil himself with. I’m sure he bought it new and never thought of ever needing another one. That generation knew the value of things. I shook his hand, thanked him, and wished him well.

As I stood there, I real-ized that I had touched the hand of history and peered into the soul of a genera-tion, who from the throes of the depression and despair, stood up one morning and threw the full measure of his character and hopes into the fight against the dark forces of tyranny, oppres-sion and genocide that were marching on the world. As he drove off into the sunset waving his hand out the window goodbye, that chill once again descended upon me as I caught a glimpse of his license plate:

ESM’s Dadey wins state award as APE ‘Teacher of the Year’

eSM DeCA, CoRe Federal Credit Union host student finance fun fair

Manlius Pebble Hill offers free program for teen drivers, parents

Albany contest asks for student artwork

Ask any art educator in Central New York – our students have talent. Why not show that to the rest of the state?

Assemblyman Will Barclay (R,C,I – Pulaski) invites all area schools to select two outstanding works of art to submit to the 21st Annual Legislative Student Exhibit in late February. The deadline to submit is Jan. 11.

The exhibit is sponsored by the New York State Art Teachers Association, the NYS Alliance for Arts Educa-tion and the NYS Legislature.

All art educators must be members of NYSATA to par-ticipate. To register your school and learn more about the contest, go to nysata.org/mc/page.do?sitePageId=94134.

Teacher Matt Dadey knocks down barriers, both physi-cal and mental, so kids with disabilities can find success in sports.

His hard work was recognized last month when Dadey earned the New York State Adapted Physical Education Teacher of the Year award. He works for the East Syracuse Minoa Central School District.

“I think we have a very good program here at ESM and the fact that its being acknowledged state-wide says a lot about the program,” said a humble and honored Dadey.

The 10-year schoolteacher works with approximately 40 to 50 children from kindergarten through 12th grade whose dis-abilities range from physical to cognitive, including cerebral palsy, autism, spina bifida and visual impairment. Dadey’s job is to modify activities in the physical education curriculum so these kids can enjoy the same exercises as their peers. He takes his students on field trips to ice skate or hike, and they kayak or canoe using an outrigger system on campus at But-ternut Creek.

“For a lot of [the kids], this is their first time getting in a kayak, [their] first time they pull back a bow for archery, and to see the smiles on their faces, and their success, is just incredible,” Dadey said.

Parents are also encouraged to get involved. If they see what their child can do in school, Dadey said, then the kids are more apt to exercise at home. For instance, when Dadey was having trouble finding activities for one of his students, he took him snowshoeing.

“It’s simple, just walking outside in the woods,” he said. The next year the entire family bought snowshoes to join

him and his new winter sport.

“That’s nice to see,” said Dadey, who recommends indi-vidual over team-oriented sports such as soccer or hockey. “Lifetime leisure activities [such as horse-back riding, kaya-king and snowshoeing] are more adaptable [and] easier to modify.”

In addition to teaching, Dadey is on the board of directors for Arise at the Farm, an accessible, integrated recreational facility in Chittenango. It offers activities to include adaptive and therapeutic horseback riding, horse cart driving, adap-tive fishing and cycling and a high and low adventure ropes course.

Are you the parent of a new or soon-to-be driver? Manlius Pebble Hill School is offering Central New

York parents and their teenage children a special one-night-only program on safe and responsible driving. The program, free and open to the public, will be held at 7 p.m., Monday Dec. 13 in the Fayetteville-Manlius High School auditorium.

“DWI Night” will address topics ranging from seat belt laws and rules regarding child car seats to responsible de-cision-making about drugs and alcohol. Among the local authorities participating in the MPH-sponsored program are Eugene Conway, chief of police in the town of DeWitt; Randy Andrews, youth education officer for the town of DeWitt police; Onondaga County Senior Assistant District Attorney Chris Bednarski and Fayetteville Village Court Judge Thomas J. Miller. They will talk to young drivers about what happens when a police officer stops a driver

for suspected use of drugs or alcohol, about the prosecu-tion of impaired drivers and about what happens to DWI offenders in the courtroom.

Special guest speaker Mary Litz, of Solvay, will draw on her own family’s nightmare in talking about the worst that can happen when someone drives drunk. Her 24-year old son, Erik Kohler, was killed in January of 2009 by a driver impaired by both drugs and alcohol.

Debbie Kogut, of Onondaga County Health Safety, and Bob West, head instructor in Manlius Pebble Hill’s driver education program, will also be a part of the program, which will be moderated by Donald Barrett, director of the Community Network Program.

Those with questions about Manlius Pebble Hill School’s “DWI Night” should call the MPH Community Programs Office at 446-2452.

Students in the ESM School District had the opportunity to learn about finance in a fun way. ESM High school DECA students in cooperation with CORE Federal Credit Union hosted the second annual “Finance Fun Fair” for students in grades kindergarten through eight.

The high school students came up with carni-val games all tying into financial literacy. Games included “Duck, Duck add em’ up,” a take on the classic “pick a duck” game. Other games included “Money Bingo,” “Wheel of Finance,” and “Bowl for Dough!”

Participants were asked to bring canned goods

to donate to a local food pantry. This reinforced the need to not only save your money but also the need to share as well.

The fun fair is a part of the ongoing cooperative effort with the ESM School District and CORE Fed-eral Credit Union to promote financial education. Over the past few years the district and credit union have hosted a variety of financial literacy programs to help increase financial knowledge and savings habits among students.

Programs include the high school student run credit union, and district-wide bank at school program.

New York non-profit leader receives award in Iowa

Dr. Matthew L. Davidson, a national leader in the development of character and culture, received the 2010 Robert D. Ray Pillar of Character Award from Character Counts in Iowa.

The Ray Award annually honors in-dividuals who consistently demonstrate good character while providing leadership and inspiration to the Character Counts in Iowa organization.

Davidson was honored at the 2010 Character Awards banquet in West Des Moines on Oct. 23 for advancements in character development science and pro-gramming. He is co-author, along with Dr. Thomas Lickona, of “The Smart & Good High Schools Report,” which profiled the development of character and culture in America’s high schools. The award is named after former Iowa Governor and Character Counts in Iowa founder, Robert D. Ray.

“Their research and partnership has been a valuable asset to our organization as we strive to meet the needs of Iowa schools,” said Scott Raecker, executive director of Character Counts in Iowa.

Davidson has advanced character devel-opment efforts through ongoing research and the development of programming for school, sport, home, and workplace. Most recently, he and his team at the Institute for Excellence & Ethics developed and field tested nationally the Power2Achieve program. The Power2Achieve program impacts students and staff in K-12 schools, college athletics and professionals in the workplace.

Davidson is the founder and president of the Institute for Excellence & Ethics, a non-profit located in LaFayette. More information is available at excellencean-dethics.com.

Hartnett named ‘lawyer of the year’

Hiscock names new development director

Fayetteville resident Elizabeth A. Hartnett was recognized by “The Best Lawyers in America“ as “Lawyer of the Year” for trusts and estates law in the Syracuse market for 2011.

According to Best Lawyers, only one single lawyer in each of 14 practice areas in Syracuse was recognized as “Lawyer of the Year” for 2011 and those selected received “particularly high ratings from most of their peers” in the legal community.

“It is truly a great honor for Betsy to re-ceive this award and be praised so highly by our peers in the legal community,” said Steve Helmer, partner and chairman of the executive committee at Mackenzie Hughes. “It says a lot about the dedicated work and expertise in trusts and estates that she provides for our cli-ents. Betsy is very deserving of being honored with this first-ever award from this renowned

legal guide.”Hartnett brings 34 years of experience serv-

ing as counsel of wealth management services to some of the most prominent individuals, families, businesses, trustees and charities in the region. Hartnett’s practice focuses in areas such as estate planning and settlement, chari-table and specialty trusts, fiduciary services, family business and business tax and succes-sion planning. Hartnett is also responsible for advising investments through the sister firm Mackenzie Hughes & Hartnett Investment Advisors.

Hartnett holds a bachelor’s degree in ac-counting and a doctorate in law degree from Syracuse University. In 1975, she was admitted to the New York State Bar Association and be-came a licensed certified public accountant.

Helen Anne Kelley, of Manlius, has joined the Hiscock Legal Aid Society as director of development.

Hiscock Legal Aid is a non-profit organization that has been providing legal services to low-income residents of Onondaga County for over sixty-one years.

Kelley brings to the position experi-ence in both the business and not-for-profit worlds. She has worked in retail sales in San Francisco, CA, has been a

small business owner in DeWitt, NY and most recently has served as Coordinator of Alumni & Annual Giving at Syracuse’s Christian Brothers Academy.

In welcoming her to the staff, Hiscock Legal Aid President and CEO Susan R. Horn expressed confidence in Kelley’s ability to increase individual, corporate and foundation support for the organi-zation.

Power of the plowCan onondaga County’s 19 towns and villages take on snow removal of the county’s nearly 800 miles of roadway? The County executive thinks they can -- by 2012.

County raises per-mile pay-ment to other municipalities in hopes of handing over plowing duties by 2012

By ryan Marfurt Onondaga County’s towns and villages

will be asked to plow an additional 61 miles of county roads this winter, the result of a provi-sion in the adopted 2011 county budget.

The move is the first step in County Execu-tive Joanie Mahoney’s plan to completely turn over snow removal of the county’s nearly 800 miles of roadway to the towns and villages by May 2012. In return, the county has budgeted to pay the various municipalities a total of $360,000.

Mahoney said that it’s currently not pos-sible to determine how much money the county could save with the initiative as it’s currently in the process of negotiating with the towns and villages. At the moment, eight municipalities have agreed to take on more county roads next year.

Despite the uncertainty, Mahoney said that the county will conserve money if the towns and villages agree to plow the additional miles at the proposed rate of $5,910 per mile.

“We can’t give you a dollar amount until some of the missing pieces falls into place,” Mahoney said. “But we are confident that there is going to be a savings, ultimately, and that the service is going to be delivered at the appropriate municipal level.”

Currently, Onondaga County is entering the last year of a three-year contract that pays the towns to plow 304 miles of the county’s 793.5 miles of highway. This past season, the towns were paid $5,660 per mile for the plow-ing season, which was increased by $250 per mile in the 2011 budget.

Brian Donnelly, the county’s commissioner of transportation, said that the price per mile was determined by a formula that looked at three specific areas -- Personnel, fuel and material costs -- all calculated back in 2008. The contract specified that personnel costs would be increased five percent every year, the material costs were determined by the county every year, and the fuel costs were dependent on projections made at the time.

In 2008 the price of the fuel was $3.01; if the price of gas ever exceeded that mark, towns would receive a raise in their per-mile payment. If the cost of gas stayed below $3.01, then the rate would remain the same, said Donnelly.

But the towns don’t think Donnelly and his staff got the numbers right.Too many miles

William Asmus, the superintendent of the Department of Public Works at the Village of Liverpool, said that it already takes his fleet of one plow and three pick-up trucks four to five hours to plow the combined 10.82 miles of both county and village roads that his depart-ment is responsible for.

Adding more miles just isn’t going to work, Asmus said.

“We’re a small village, we don’t have the money, and we don’t have the manpower,” Asmus said.

“So, it would be ludicrous for us to do some-thing like that. We have enough to take care of right here with the five guys that I have.”

For bigger towns, the burden isn’t the same. But Town of DeWitt Highway Superintendent Brian Maxwell agrees with Asmus and thinks the county should be giving the towns more money.

Maxwell is responsible for 129 miles of road in DeWitt, 6.9 miles of which are currently county roads; this year, the county wants Max-well to plow an additional 2.7 miles.

He said that while he doesn’t have a prob-lem with the additional workload, he knows some of his counterparts will.

“For the town of DeWitt to do the county roads, we would probably have to add onto our building a little bit to house the equipment,” Maxwell said. “It wouldn’t be as severe for us to handle as, let’s say, the town of Clay. …They would have to add on so much.”

Thomas Weaver, the town of Clay highway superintendent, said that he currently plows 16 miles of county road, with three more miles proposed for next year. If the three miles are added to his route, then his fleet of 17 plows

to the state pension program, Michalenko said. Robb, the highest paid of those retiring early, is in charge of

planning, land management and compliance/zoning enforce-ment; solid waste planning and management; and facilities management.

Michalenko said the town will restructure the department, splitting Robb’s responsibilities between current town employ-ees Mike Morraco and Jim Conlon. Morraco, who will be in charge of operations, is currently the assistant director of parks and recreation. Conlon, the town’s codes enforcement officer, will step into the lead role of planning and zoning.

“It’s a win/win,” Michalenko said. “The town is reorganizing to reduce the number of positions to lower its longterm labor costs. The employee wins by gaining the additional time in

their pension formula without actually having to work those additional years.”

Town attorney Jamie Sutphen and Planning Board Chair-man Mike Lazar spoke out at a special meeting held last week. Robb was not present.

“Personally, I have a lot of respect for Dick and his abilities,” Lazar said. “I’m also a resident of the town, a taxpayer and I understand you have to make these decisions. Unfortunately, it’s always the highest paid, the most experienced people that end up taking the brunt of this because that saves you the most money. They’re also the hardest typically to be replaced and they have the biggest impact when they go.”

Lazar added that while he supports the town’s decisions, he doesn’t want the planning board, applicants or the interface

with the public to be harmed. “They shouldn’t have to suffer for this,” he said.Sutphen said Robb’s accomplishments include creating a

brand new subdivision code, sign code and design guidelines with very little outside cost. She added the highly professional manner in which Robb has run the department has made the job look easier than it actually is.

“I’ve worked in a lot of towns. I have represented other towns …,” she said. “Absolutely and without question, this town runs the best department of development and operations in the county. No doubt about it. And we’re going to miss it tremendously.”

Robb’s last day of employment is Dec. 28. He will, however, work on a contractual part-time basis during transition.

a time of 18 minutes, 21.4 seconds. Rutledge led most of the race, only passed in the final mile

by Texas runner Rachel Johnson, who would prevail in 18:18.6, just 3.2 seconds better than Rutledge. Still, Rutledge was tops among all team participants, and foretold further F-M success on this day.

Not far behind, junior Katie Sischo made her way to fourth place, in 18:49.7, while sophomore Jillian Fanning’s sixth-place clocking of 18:51.7 pushed F-M further out in front as Sischo and Fanning were second and fourth, respectively, among the team runners.

Another junior, Heather Martin, was next, working her way to 16th place (eighth in the team standings) in 19:12.2. And when senior Courtney Chapman crossed the finish line in 29th place (12th team) in 19:37 flat, F-M’s fifth national championship was secure.

Two more Hornets were present, as junior Emily McGur-rin took 96th place in 20:39.1 and sophomore Katie Brislin, close behind McGurrin, was 107th in 20:46.8. All of F-M’s place-finishers were done by the time Saratoga got its first runner home.

As for the boys race, F-M was not expected to win. But it had a lot of confidence following its New York/Northeast Regional victory on Nov. 27 at Bowdoin Park, and that did not dissipate a week later in Oregon.

This version of the Manlius XC Club produced 135 points, easily clear of Columbus, Ind. (165 points) and 19 other teams for the runner-up spot. Only Arcadia, from California, did better as it won the Nike National meet with 92 points.

It was senior Mark McGurrin providing F-M’s lead, as he worked his way to 17th place (seventh among team runners) with his time of 16 minutes, 45.4 seconds. Running together, senior Andrew Roache and sophomore Nick Ryan both were

timed in 16:52.5, though Roache finished 27th and Ryan 28th.

Senior Andrew Veilleux was 47th in the team event, and 87th overall, in 17:40 flat. Junior Ben Thomas earned 58th place among team runners in 17:46.5 to round out the scoring as junior Jules Wellner finished in 18:02.9 and senior Eric Bil-

linson had a time of 18:05.6.What makes the F-M’s girls’ championship feat all the more

remarkable was that it had just one senior, Chapman, among its top seven runners. So it will be favored again in 2011 to sweep every state and national honor in front of them - just as it did in 2010, and the four years prior to that, too.

will have approximately 167 miles to plow each time they go out.The future of the facilities

One of the main reasons that the county is trying to

cut back its presence from the plowing business is because it only has four locations spread out through the county. One of the main issues with the current system in place is that

the county workers spend more time traveling to the roads then they do actually plowing them.

The four locations that the county currently has are in

Marcellus, Camillus, James-ville, and DeWitt. Donnelly said that in 2009 the county talked about possibly com-bining the out-of-date facili-ties in DeWitt and Camillus

into a more centrally located and up-to-date facility in Clay. The project would cost anywhere from $20 million to $25 million a cost Don-nelly said the county cannot currently swallow.

“With the state of the economy right now though, that’s going to be cost prohibi-tive,” Donnelly said. “We can’t do that right now.”A guessing game

The shift in the county’s approach has upset some legislators, too.

Thomas Buckel Jr., 7th District Onondaga County Legislator, expressed his un-ease with the situation in September as the DOT made its budget proposal to the legislature.

“What we’ll have is 19 towns with 19 different dis-tractions on our hands,” Buckel said “Nineteen towns with 19 different computer operations, 19 different pur-chasing operations, and 19 different insurance opera-tions.”

“I think we’re foolish if we don’t do hard-number calcu-lations,” he said

But to Mahoney, it only makes sense to utilize the

facilities that the municipali-ties already have. Mahoney said there are several other areas where the towns and the county are providing the same service. For her, cutting out the recurring lines is a priority.

“There are things that you are doing on the town level and I’m doing on a county level that are serving the same person who is paying the bills,” Mahoney said. “I think we have an obligation to look at whether, combining our forces, we can pass a smaller bill on to you at the end of the day.”

To save money, the county is trying to consolidate and save jobs, but they have yet to produce evidence to show that the new plowing arrange-ments would actually save money.

“Once you do it and show people it can work, that’s when you start getting a snow ball effect,” Ma-honey said. “The consolida-tion has really ramped up in a way that this community has never seen before. We’re consolidating and sharing services with municipali-ties like we never have.”

DCL seeks community input on library’s future

The DeWitt Community Library Board of Trustees is reaching out to the James-ville-DeWitt community as part of its new strategic planning initiative. The strategic plan will serve as a roadmap to help guide the library’s future.

The board’s strategic planning commit-tee is looking to identify which services, collections and facilities are most impor-tant to its served community; and discover how needs have changed since the library last conducted a survey in 2003.

“We hope people will take advantage of

this opportunity to share their ideas and help us formulate a vision for the library’s future that will meet the community’s needs for years to come,” said DCL Execu-tive Director Wendy Scott.

F-M’s Waffle to play lacrosse at Jacksonville

FLORIDA BOUND: Fayetteville-Manlius senior Ari Waffle with his national letter of intent after signing to at-tend Jacksonville University to play men’s lacrosse.

By Phil Blackwell

Instead of following the traditional path to a traditional program, Fayette v i l l e -Manl ius senior Ari Waffle has taken his talents to a newcomer in the college lacrosse ranks.

Waffle has signed his national letter of intent to go south, to Florida, and attend Jacksonville University, which only entered the NCAA Di-vision I ranks for the first time in 2010.

In the last two seasons, Waffle has emerged as one of the area’s top offensive stars, leading the Hornets’ attack with his finishing skills. He also played football this fall, serving as the team’s kicker and also playing at wide receiver as F-M went 9-1,

losing in the Section III Class AA semifinals to eventual champion Baldwinsville.

Working as an in-dependent, the Jack-s o nv i l l e D o l p h i n s (who share the same nickname as LeMoyne College) went 6-7 last spring, and in 2011 will join the Metro Atlantic Athletic Con-ference, which has an automatic bid into the NCAA Tournament.

All this is spearheaded by head coach Matt Kerwick, who left Ho-bart College in Geneva to take over the fledgling Jacksonville program. Kerwick coached seven years at Ho-bart, leading the Statesmen to the NCAA tournament in 2002 and 2004. Kerwick has also coached at Alfred University.

Plunging into winter (sports)Just as everyone was all set to enter the winter

sports season and all the excitement that goes with it….the story of Kihary Blue’s shooting and death breaks, and we in the Central New York high school sports community have to pick up shattered hearts.

At Henninger, Blue was a first-rate athlete, good enough to quarterback the Black Knights to a sec-tional football title and, in basketball, lead them within inches of back-to-back sectional titles – near-ly three championships in 12 months. Yet he ended up a random victim of mindless gang violence.

So we dedicate this season to the memory of Kihary Blue – and to his wonderful family, who had the grace and generosity to donate his organs in the hope that others might live.

In years past, there would be no time to breathe. Winter sports teams would start to practice even as fall sectional champions worked their way through the state playoffs.

To save some money, and to avoid huge gaps in the schedule, Section III schools moved the start of practices back in the calendar. Most teams took to the court (or ice) just a couple of days after Thanks-giving.

Thus, we’ve had to wait to get the games started, and with the weather outside turning frightful, that creates a whole lot of cabin fever. But that’s over now, and it’s time for the games again.

Especially when it comes to basketball and hock-ey, they’ve got a lot to live up to. There was, in 2009-10, Jamesville-DeWitt (again) and Westhill snagging state championships on the Glens Falls Harwood and, at Utica Auditorium, West Genesee and New Hartford reaching the same summit on the ice. Not to mention Oswego’s girls claiming their own state hockey crown.

Could that happen again? Well, J-D’s trying for a mind-boggling fourth state Class A championship in a row. With DaJuan Coleman ready to dominate in the paint, and Tyler Cavanaugh and Demetrius

Mitchell helping out, it’s hard to see any local side stopping them again.

Westhill’s Class B quest will be much harder, since Dan Ross, Mike McMullen, Tom Fisher and Dan Karleski all moved on. A whole lot of challengers, including Bishop Grimes and Skaneateles (who have most of their stars back), are ready to seize control.

New York Mills, in Class D, might prove just as big a favorite as J-D, since Fred Russ and Matt Welch are still around to tower over opponents. Class C appears wide-open at the outset, with defending champ Tully having lots of parts to replace and West Canada starting life without Jared Sudderly.

And Class AA? Well, CNS assumes a higher profile as defending champs, absent the likes of Andy Falvey and buzzer-beating sectional final hero Anthony DelCoro, but with Zach Coleman, Elliott Boyce and Josh Williams around to provide a solid core. Everyone else, Utica Proctor included, has ma-jor parts to replace.

Of course, the most famous basketball Northstar is a girl – Breanna Stewart, a first-team All-Ameri-can with two summer Team USA appearances (and two gold medals) on her resume. And she still has two years left to dazzle at CNS.

What’s scarier about the Northstars is that all but one player is back from 2009-10, from Maine-bound Kelsey Mattice to Brittany Paul. As with the

J-D boys, Stewart and her mates will have plenty of tournament showcases this winter, which might prove more competition than the local AA sides, since Corcoran replaces everyone and CBA’s Leanne Ockenden is now at Marist.

Class A girls hoops lacks a clear favorite, but that’s not the case with the other classes. South Jefferson, with Rachael Bassett and Maddy Wetterhahn, Wes-thill (with Anna Ross and Ashley Cianfriglia) and Jordan-Elbridge (with all but one starter back, led by the imposing Molly Hourigan in the middle) form the Class B front line.

Utica-Notre Dame, in Class C, has a terrific ninth-grader in Emily Durr, and Hamilton, the reigning Class D champs, brings back do-everything Jordan Peterson. It will take mighty efforts from the challengers to unseat them.

Then, on the ice, you’ve got big changes. In-stead of a small Division I and large Division II, it’s reversed, with some odd alignments in a split Division I and a real chance for someone to unseat West Genesee since the Wildcats’ mighty defenders, Ryan Michel and Tim Bubnack, have moved on. New Hartford seeks a state championship three-peat in Division II.

Also we head into wrestling, boys swimming, bowling and a somewhat scattered indoor track season where teams will run at Colgate and SUNY-Cortland, awaiting the completion of that new facil-ity at OCC for next year.

And though basketball teams and wrestlers will, once more, settle their titles in the eastern part of the state, the hockey championships still run through Utica Aud, the state bowlers are headed to Strike-N-Spare Lanes in Mattydale and, again, in-door track titles will get decided at Cornell.

In short, there’s plenty of reason for fans to trek through the snow, sleet and salty roads to see young athletes square off - even if they had to start a bit later than normal.

Last chance for tax creditFederal program expires Dec. 31; energy savings won’t

Procrastinators, beware. The federal energy tax credit that allows homeowners to qualify for up to $1,500 in tax credit savings when replacing old windows expires on Dec. 31, 2010.

However, the day-to-day savings you get from replacing older windows will last for years to come.

“Adding energy-efficient replacement windows to a home immediately helps lower everyday en-ergy bills and increases a home’s long-term value and comfort,” saID Tom Kraeutler, host of the national home improvement radio show, “The Money Pit.”

“There simply is no better time to take advan-tage of the government’s incentives to replace your worn-out windows.”

Kraeutler notes that fast-acting homeowners can also receive up to $150 toward preparation of their 2010 personal income tax return with H&R Block when they purchase 12 or more qualifying energy-efficient Simonton windows before the end of 2010.

“Homeowners can reduce their energy bills, qualify for up to $1,500 in federal energy tax credit with the company’s Energy Tax Credit (ETC) glass packages and get up to $150 toward tax preparation fees when making the decision to invest now in qualifying replacement windows,” said Kraeutler.

“Those are three really good reasons to get this project done now.”

When to replace windowsA former professional contractor, Kraeutler

offers weekly advice to homeowners nationwide on home improvement projects. Deciding when to replace windows is a key topic covered on his show.

“Products in the home have a distinct lifespan,” said Kraeutler. “After 10 years, windows should be monitored yearly to ensure their performance is holding up.

“When a window stops operating correctly, then it’s time to invest in new windows. Vinyl windows and doors specified with a LoE glass package are a viable ‘green’ option offering several distinct advantages.

“They include exceptional thermal perfor-mance, durable recyclable vinyl, low maintenance, and aesthetic appeal - all adding comfort, beauty and energy efficiency to a home.”

For a free replacement window guidebook from “The Money Pit,” download myhomemymoneypit.com/your-guide-to-replacing-the-windows-in-your-house.php.

The homeowners of this energy-efficient bay window gained a tax credit from the federal government, financial assistance with preparing their taxes and lower energy bills.

Be prepared if there is a power outage this winterWinter might be a wonderland to some, but for those

who prefer a warm, sandy beach over a ski slope, winter is no walk in the park.

It’s even worse when a winter storm hits and suddenly everything goes dark. Power outages are impossible to predict. When a power outage occurs, it can last any-where from a few minutes to several days. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention offers the following guidelines for making it through a power outage safe and sound.Food

In general, if the refrigerator or freezer loses power for two hours or less, then the food inside will be safe to consume. However, it still helps to keep the keep the refrigerator and freezer doors closed as much as possible.

When the power is out for longer than two hours, dif-ferent rules apply. If the freezer is half full, food will be safe to consume for 24 hours. If the freezer is full, then the food will be safe for 48 hours.

Items in the refrigerator should be stored in a cooler surrounded by ice. Milk, additional dairy products, meat, fish, gravy, and anything that can spoil should all be packed in a cooler of ice if the power is out for more than

If necessary, boil water before washing dishes, cooking or brushing your teeth to avoid consuming contaminated water during a power outage.

Seneca Federal is not an average mortgage originator“Seneca Federal Savings and Loan Associ-

ation is not an average mortgage origi-nator but it IS an average community bank,” said Katrina Russo, president-CEO of Seneca Federal Savings and Loan Association. Sound community bank mortgage lending practices are not the source of problems that have turned the economy on its ear. Rather, the “big” banks who took part in the sub-prime lending with less than qual-ified applicants is what has contributed to the downturn of the economy. “It’s not all about making a quick buck,” said Russo. “Mainstream America has to start thinking beyond the all mighty buck and remember what is really at the heart of this nation, which I be-lieve is what all communities bank’s thinking boils down to. The dream of homeownership is a dream we help make happen and it can be done in a conservative manner and still render positive results to many.”

Seneca Federal is proud to provide traditional, local home town lending with competitively priced mortgage rates. “We look to competitors daily,

in part, to decide where to price our mortgage rates,” said Tammy Purcell, VP–lending. “We also respond quickly to pre-qualification requests and pride ourselves as local underwriters with timely commitments.” Seneca Federal has never used credit scores as a ba-sis for loan approval but rather base loan commitment on actual consumer credit history. This ‘traditional’ and time-tested practice has worked well for the Association, which has a fore-closure rate near zero percent.

“A low foreclosure rate sometimes leads people to ask me if we are risky enough with such a low default rate,” said the president, adding that the low default rate has more to do with the rapport they have made with their customers during the underwriting process and less to do with not taking risk. “Our loans are often tailor-made to our customer’s specific needs and we build a rapport with them from the beginning, indicating that we are on the ‘same side’. We are very thankful when a customer is willing to approach us when they are having difficulty and

before the loan is in default and we are able to work with finding a solution to get them through a rough time such as a job loss,” added Purcell. At Seneca Federal you always have the ability to speak directly with experienced loan underwriters who assist you in your mortgage loan application process from start to finish, including servic-ing throughout the loan.

The lending team is carrying on with the philosophy of individualized lending that community banks thrive on. “We are imbedded in our commu-nities and want to offer competitive mortgage, consumer and commercial loan rates for the benefit of our cus-tomers,” said Purcell. “We aren’t a ‘cookie cutter’ secondary mortgage market lender. We understand the needs of our communities and want to provide a competitive product.” The mortgage servicing is always retained by us so our customers are assured they will work with us for the life of the loan.

One example of a loan that is often tailor-made to a customer’s needs is the construction to permanent financ-ing mortgage loan with one loan clos-ing and a rate that is determined at commitment, before the construction phase. This loan is popular since the rate can’t change when it ‘converts’ to permanent financing later and clos-ing costs are only paid once, upon commitment. The risk of a higher rate later after the house is constructed is removed. Another such tailor-made

loan includes a mortgage where a cus-tomer is purchasing a house in which projected renovations are included. The purchase and renovation costs are wrapped into one mortgage loan. Other features which add to Seneca’s appeal as a mortgage lender include no flood certification fees and no under-writing fees. “This culture of personal-ized service was instilled into us by our predecessors, so that Seneca Federal’s continued success is guaranteed for decades to come,” she said.

“We pride ourselves on provid-ing the best possible products with the lowest possible lending rates. As a community bank, it is our job to increase the wealth of our members through low lending rates and high savings rates, given the state of the economy at any given time,” according to Russo.

Seneca Federal President–CEO, Katrina Russo left, and Execu-tive Vice President-CFO, Wendy Bodnar

two hours. When cooking, use a food thermometer to check the tem-perature of food before cooking and eating. Any food with a temperature greater than 40 F should be discarded.

WaterThe water supply might also be

affected during a power outage. It’s always a good idea to keep bottled water on hand in the event of a power outage to avoid consuming any contaminated water, which might be a byproduct of water purification systems not fully functioning because of the power outage.

Avoid using potentially contami-nated water when doing the dishes, brushing your teeth or preparing food. For parents of young children, it helps to have formula on hand that does not require the addition of water.

If tap water must be used, bring the water to a rolling boil for at least one minute. That’s enough time to kill most organisms, including harmful bacteria and parasites.

Hypothermia preventionWhile most regions are quick to

restore power, especially harsh storms might make it difficult to restore power right away. An extended power outage could cause chronic hypo-thermia, which occurs from ongoing exposure to cold indoor temperatures (below 60 F). The elderly are especially susceptible to chronic hypothermia during a power outage, but there are steps everyone can take to stay safe.

Family members with elderly relatives who live alone should make every effort to contact those rela-tives and ensure everything is alright. Make sure the elderly or the ill have adequate food, clothing, shelter, and sources of heat. If necessary, insist el-derly or ill friends and family stay over until the power comes back on.

In poorly heated rooms, be sure there are enough blankets for every-one. And wear layers of clothing as well as a hat, even when indoors.

It also helps to stay as active as pos-sible, as physical activity raises body temperature.

For more information on safely mak-ing it through a power outage, visit the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention at cdc.gov.

Law enforcement assessors invite public comment

A team of assessors from the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agen-cies will arrive Saturday Dec. 11 to examine all aspects of the town of Manlius Police Department’s policy, procedures, manage-ment, operations and support services.

Verification by the team, that the police department meets the commission’s state-of-the-art standards, is part of a voluntary process to continue accreditation, a highly-prized recognition of public safety and pro-fessional excellence, said Police Chief Francis Marlowe.

As part of the on-site assessment, agency personnel and members of the community are invited to offer comments at a public in-formation session to be held at 6 p.m. Monday Dec. 13 in the auditorium at Manlius Village Centre, 1 Arkie Albanese Ave.

If an individual cannot speak at the public information session but would like to provide comments to the assessment team, he or she may do so by telephone at 682-1195 between the hours of 1 and 3 p.m. Monday Dec. 13. Telephone comments and appearances at

the public information session are limited to 10 minutes and must address the agency’s ability to comply with CALEA standards. A copy of the standards is available at the police headquarters, 1 Arkie Albanese Ave. The local contact is Sgt. Michael Crowell at 682-2212.

If you would rather write in comments, mail your comments to Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agen-cies, Inc., 13575 Heathcote Blvd., Suite 320, Gainesville, Va. 20155.

The Manlius Police Department must comply with 464 standards in order to main-tain its accredited status.

“CALEA accreditation has become a significant part of what we do so that we may continue to provide the best possible services to the citizens of our community,” Marlowe said.

Accreditation lasts three years, during which the agency must submit annual re-ports attesting continued compliance with those standards under which it was initially accredited.

Scouts prepare for promotion

Above, the group is pictured with County Legislator Kevin Holmquist (R-Manlius) who gave the boys a tour of the County Legislative Chamber and discussed how laws are made. The Scouts also visited the county’s Civil War flag collection and the Supreme Court room where Teddy Roosevelt once was involved in a civil case.

Betty Weibezahl, 83leaves a legacy of spirited adventures, countless friends and unfailing grace

ObituariesMary Elizabeth “Betty” Daley

Weibezahl, 83, of Fayetteville, died Saturday Nov. 20, 2010, after a long illness. Intrepid and ebullient, she leaves a legacy of spirited adventures, countless friends and unfailing grace under pressure. She was never one to boast, but a number of years ago, requested that she collaborate on her obituary, to make sure she was “sent off in style.”

Herewith, the life of Betty Wei-bezahl: A native of Syracuse, she was the only child of Mary Bellows Daley and Robert W. Daley.

Mrs. Weibezahl graduated magna cum laude from Syracuse University, the alma mater of both her parents. She was a member of Phi Beta Kappa and received her master’s degree in education from SU the following year.

A third-generation teacher, she taught Spanish and French at a number of area schools, including North Syracuse and James-ville-DeWitt. She also was a foreign languages professor at Syracuse University, SUNY Cort-land and Tompkins Cortland Community College.

When she and her husband, Hal, a former school superintendent, retired, they moved to Honduras for three years, where they worked for the American Embassy in Tegucigalpa and

traveled through Central and South America.

After returning to the United States, Betty was a substitute teacher for many years in area schools. She published a number of articles on foreign language instruction in edu-cational journals, was a member of Eta Pi Upsilon, a women’s professional honorary, the 20th Century Club, and Chi Omega sorority.

She also taught English as a second language in Central New York and in Massa-chusetts, where she and her husband, also an SU alumnus, spent winters. The Weibezahls were co-founders of the Syracuse University Alumni Club on Cape Cod.

Mrs. Weibezahl was a member of the Ovid Federated Church in the Finger Lakes, where she spent summers, and St. David’s Episcopal Church in South Yarmouth, Mass. The con-summate multi-tasker, Mrs. Weibezahl loved to play golf and tennis, swim and garden, ski, entertain and play the soundtracks of old musicals at full-blast.

She parasailed in Mexico, climbed moun-tains in Nepal, swam with giant tortoises in the Galapagos, went on African safaris and hosted exchange students from Brazil, France, Argentina, Thailand and a number of other countries. Her energy level and vivacious personality were legendary.

After being diagnosed with Alzheimer’s more than 10 years ago, she moved in with her daughter in Fayetteville. Despite failing physically and cognitively in recent years, her delightful, upbeat nature never waned.

Mrs. Weibezahl was predeceased by her beloved husband, Hal, who died in 1994. She is survived by a daughter, Sue Weibezahl Porter, and son-in-law, David Porter, of Fayetteville; two sons, R. Thomas and daughter-in-law, Marcy Weibezahl, of California, and Mark Weibezahl of Massachusetts; nieces, neph-ews, grandchildren, in-laws and many dear friends.

After 40 years of marriage, her husband de-

scribed her as “the most remarkable woman” he ever met. Those who knew her well echo that sentiment.

Visitation: from 4-7 p.m. will be held on Friday Dec. 3 at Eaton-Tubbs-Schepp Fu-neral Home, 7191 E. Genesee St., Fayetteville. Memorial service: 11 a.m. on Saturday Dec. 4 at Trinity Episcopal Church, 106 Chapel St., Fayetteville. For directions, florists, or a guestbook, please visit scheppfamily.com. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the Alzheimer’s Association, the American Heart Association or to the Society for the prevention of Cruelty to Animals.
