More than a dozenvolunteers will continue to work hard to make every dollar goas far as possible.“This is a grassroots effort that respects private propertyrights and home rule.”, says Bob Stegemann, the RPA boardmember who is facilitating outreach with Plateau towns, “Wewill involve and engage stakeholders with all points of viewand interests.” “We are not an advocacy group,” he pointedout, “we are facilitating a conversation about the Plateau inthe hopes that our great-great grandchildren will be able toexperience the same wonder we do.”The funds will pay for a geographic analysis of natural resourceand community value information that will highlight the areasof the plateau that provide the greatest public value, as wellas gathering input and feedback from municipal officials,landowners, and plateau user groups. The Rensselaer PlateauAlliance is seeking additional funding to integrate an economiccomponent to the plan.The Rensselaer Plateau Alliance has already started to engagetowns in the planning process.

Legislators were presented with the annual State of the Countyreport by County Executive Kathleen Jimino. County ExecutiveJimino detailed the fiscal problems created by state and federalmandates. The county has joined efforts by county leadersfrom across New York State to reduce the huge costs ofmandates.At the March 8 meeting, we approved a resolution calling forthe state to allow counties to opt-out of Medicaid programs.The opt-out proposal would allow counties to decide whetherto offer Medicaid programs not mandated by the federalgovernment.The Legislature has been working to reduce costs during thesetough economic times. Thanks to an aggressive re-bid of thecounty insurance contract, the county will save $900,000 overthe next three years. During 2010, legislative spending wasreduced by $130,000, following a $160,000 reduction in 2009.The Legislature also agreed to form a bi-partisan task force forthe review of the 2012 budget. The task force will include fourmembers, with two each appointed by the majority and minority.The task force will begin meetings this spring and review fiscalissues and economic conditions.There have been recent media accounts regarding federal plansto require dairy farms to treat spilled milk as an oil spill. Such arequirement would mean significant costs for farms, as thefederal rules would force farms to establish plans to deal withthe spills, creating new burdens and difficulties for farms. Wesponsored a resolution calling for a waiver to these regulationsand acknowledge the work by Congressman Chris Gibson onthis issue.We also recognized National Agriculture Week and also calledfor adequate state support of the Farmland Protection Program,which has saved about 3,000 acres of farmland in the county.We sponsored a resolution mourning the passing of SamuelDiNova, a veteran of World War II who earned a Bronze Starfor bravery and who recently passed away.The next meeting of the Rensselaer County Legislature isTuesday, April 12, 2011. Residents are welcome to contact usat our legislative offices by writing to the Rensselaer CountyLegislature, 1600 7th Avenue, Troy NY 12180 or by e-mailingus via the off icial legislative website atwww.rensselaercounty.org.

HUDSON RIVER COMMUNITY

CREDIT UNION

STEADFAST COMMITMENT

TO MEMBERS

March 31, 2011 (Corinth, NY): Hudson River Community Credit Union (HRCCU)

is proud to be recognized as a 5-star Superior Credit Union by BauerFinancial, Inc.,

the nations bank and credit union rating � rm. Earning this highest 5-star rating

for strength and stability, Susan Commanda, CEO, and the entire team at HRCCU

are providing their commitment to their members. To earn Bauer’s 5-Star Superior

rating, HRCCU must excel in areas of capital adequacy, delinquent loan levels and

pro� tability to name just a few. � e fact that it has done so for 65 consecutive quar-

ters puts HRCCU in an even more elite group of ”Exceptional Performance Credit

Unions”. � ese institutions have consistently earned this highest rating for a mini-

mum of 10 years without interruption.

“Many consumers don’t realize that a credit union has members, not just depositors.

Due to speci� c membership restrictions, there is a unique bond between a credit

union and its members”, explains Karen L. Dorway, president of the research � rm.

“Because of this built-in relationship, credit unions, like HRCCU, have a step up in

knowing how to serve each member individually.”

Hudson River Community Credit Union’s mission is to improve the well-being of

members and their families by providing quality � nancial services with the best

overall value. Hudson River Community Credit Union has � ve branches located at

312 Palmer Ave., Corinth; 160 Broad St., Glens Falls; 3762 Burgoyne Avenue, Hud-

son Falls; 40 Leversee Rd, Troy and 35 Niver St., Cohoes. � e credit union is a not-

for-pro� t � nancial cooperative owned and governed by its members. Anyone who

lives, works, worships, attends school or businesses and other legal entities such as a

church or association, located within Warren, Washington, Saratoga and Rensselaer

Counties or the Towns of Cohoes, Watervliet and Green Island and their immediate

families are eligible to join the credit union.

Although tax increases forthe past 3 years have been low, we taxpayers are exhaustedfrom paying huge increases over many, many years before.We’ve had increases of 7%, 8%, 9%, 10%, 11% and more.A few years of relatively low increases does not begin to“balance the ledger.” If you think the proposed increases aretoo high, contact the Board right away.While your taxes keep going up, teachers received this schoolyear yet another pay increase, averaging about 4% perteacher. They have gotten an increase for each of the last 4years, totaling about 20% over this 4-year period. Manyteachers feel they are paid less than what they deserve. Ifthey do suffer a pay inequity, then you taxpayers have helpedto finance a 4-year effort to correct it by increasing their payby 20%! That’s a breathtaking pace by any standard! Inthese dire economic times, we cannot continue right now tocorrect any remaining pay inequities, if, in fact, such inequitiesstill exist. We don’t have the cash! Meanwhile, those of us inthe private sector are experiencing 0% increases or give-backs. Telling teachers we cannot continue to give pay raisesduring these times does not reflect a lack of respect or a lackor appreciation. This is about a lack of cash. We probably alldeserve raises; the money is not there.If teachers agree to a 0% pay raise this fall, we will saveabout $750,000, equal to about 12 teaching jobs. If teachersagree to pay 20% of their health insurance premiums (theypay only 13% for very good plans, far less than the privatesector), we could save about 3 more jobs for a total of about15 jobs. Some teachers have told me they are willing to passon the raises, but you need to express your opinion to yourunion leadership.~Ron Rouse, PoestenkillEditors Note: The above article does not necessarily reflect the

DID YOU KNOW?

Potatoes are enjoyed world-over and make a versatile addition toany meal. Though many consumers purchase their potatoes atthe local grocery store, potatoes can be easily grown in the homegarden, too. Potatoes prefer a slightly acidic soil and full sun andwill produce best in a loose, moisture-retentive soil. It is possibleto get good potato yields in less-than-perfect soil, however. Homegardeners can begin planting potatoes in early spring, when thesoil is able to be worked. Plants will not begin to grow until the soiltemperature is at least 45 F. Plant only certified seed potatoes,which are available at most quality nurseries and garden centers.They are less likely to have disease than a potato you picked upat the supermarket and tried to establish. Small seed potatoes canbe planted as-is. Larger seed potatoes should be cut into piecesthat contain at least one or two “eyes.”

PROTECT YOUR PATIO

FROM WEAR AND TEAR

Patios are typically the go-to spot for warm weather outdoor meals.Whether hosting friends or simply enjoying a relaxing meal underthe evening sky, homeowners tend to spend as much time as possibleon the patio once the weather warms up.Because it’s such a high-traffic area, the patio should be protectedfrom wear and tear. Wear and tear on the patio can result fromMother Nature or be a byproduct of all those spring and summerevenings spent relaxing outdoors. Fortunately, there are a handfulof ways homeowners can keep their patios looking pristine throughthe summer party season.* Stain the concrete. Staining concrete protects it from naturalelements, which can cause the color of a patio to peel or flake.Concrete stain penetrates deep and infuses the concrete with apermanent color that’s less likely to fall victim to the elements.* Cover the furniture. Patio furniture can vary significantly in priceand quality. Homeowners who picked up a few plastic chairs at thenearby grocery store might notfeel furniture covers are worththe investment. For those withmore expensive patio furniture,durable furniture covers that canwithstand year-round weatherare a sound investment.* Consider retractable awnings.Retractable awnings might costa little money, but they can alsopay homeowners back over thelong haul. First and foremost,retractable awnings protectpatio from sunlight andultraviolet rays in hot weather.When placed near a window,retractable awnings can lowerenergy bills. Such awnings cankeep sunlight and ultravioletrays from entering the home.* Plant trees. An eco-friendlyway to maintain and add to apatio’s aesthetic appeal is to planttrees around the patio. Treescan protect the patio fromsunlight and ultraviolet radiationwhile providing some shade.
