Approximately 80,000 families in Western New York would qualify for free tuition under the plan. A county legislator also contradicted the Fredonia mayor's claim that the city of Dunkirk did not want Fredonia to be involved in a regional water district project.

The Guadalupe County dam crisis began in May 2019 when the dam at Lake Dunlap collapsed. In response, the Guadalupe-Blanco River Authority (GBRA) released a report recommending draining the remaining regional lakes for dam updates. This led to backlash from lake property and business owners. GBRA's response was to partner with stakeholders, increase transparency, and encourage two-way communication. However, some dubbed the "homesteader people" continued legal battles against GBRA. The full resolution is still ongoing as trials determine the fate of draining the other lakes.
During the 1960s, environmental awareness in the United States increased due to several influential events and publications. Rachel Carson's 1962 book Silent Spring was influential in bringing attention to the negative effects of pesticides. Major oil spills in 1969 like the Santa Barbara spill increased calls to address water and air pollution. The decade also saw the passage of several landmark environmental laws like the Clean Air Act of 1963 and the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969. By the end of the 1960s, environmental protection had become an important political issue in the United States.

Press Release from Anti-Fossil Fuel Organizations Asking PA Gov Wolf to Stop ...Marcellus Drilling News
A press release about a letter from THE Delaware Riverkeeper, Maya van Rossum, and a bunch of her anti-fossil fuel (wacko) pals to America's most liberal governor, PA Gov. Tom Wolf, asking him to immediately suspend all further Marcellus drilling in the state and while he's at it, stop building any new pipelines. The press release quotes a 10-year old who has apparently been brainwashed into believing fracking will kill Mother Earth. Disgusting.
1) An EF5 tornado hit the city of Moore, Oklahoma on May 20th, destroying the Moore branch of Tinker Federal Credit Union but all employees and members were safely sheltered.

3) After the tornado passed, the 23 people emerged safely from the vault though the entire branch had been demolished, and recovery efforts began to secure the vault contents and clear the debris.

5-28-14 WBP - Senior versus family housing near Century College debatedLouise Ernewein
The Mahtomedi City Council and Planning Commission debated how to develop a 5-acre area near Century College. Two options were proposed: senior housing for aging residents or high-density townhomes to attract young families. Opinion was divided on the best approach, with some believing senior housing would free up existing homes for families while others felt young families were needed to support the community. The city planned further study on development density and financing options before deciding on a plan.
The lack of a state budget in Illinois is impacting bridge construction projects in Jefferson County. Without a budget, the county will be unable to complete any bridge projects that require state funding and approval. The county currently has several bridge projects underway that involve replacing aging timber bridges with new concrete structures. However, the funds from the state's Bridge Replacement Program are on hold until a budget is passed. In addition, the county receives Motor Fuel Tax funds from the state each month to maintain roads, but those funds are also delayed, which could damage road and bridge infrastructure if not resolved.
An Aquarion Water Company employee, Chris Redfield, was honored for rescuing his neighbor from a burning building by climbing a ladder and pulling her to safety through an upstairs window. Aquarion has also donated several used vehicles to local police and fire departments in Connecticut cities and towns to enhance emergency response and community services. The donations included two vans for the Bridgeport Fire Department to respond to hazardous materials calls.

They studied the issue over two months and considered input from community leaders and a survey where 69% of respondents supported the election. If approved, bond funds would be used to build more school facilities, buy buses, and repair buildings due to growth in the district and loss of state funding. The board felt presenting the issue to voters was their duty.
The neighborhood of Baudin Circle in Ladera Ranch decorates for the holidays every year by hanging lights between houses, but this year they received warning letters from the county saying the decorations encroach on public property.

The letter urges President Obama to swiftly resolve funding questions for the U.S. Federal Plaza associated with the New International Trade Crossing bridge between Detroit and Windsor, Ontario.

This brief was submitted by several industry groups in support of petitioners in a Supreme Court case regarding the test for determining whether a river is navigable for title purposes under the Clean Water Act. The brief argues that navigability determinations under the CWA must be made on a case-by-case, segment-by-segment basis and cannot be based solely on evidence of present-day recreational use, as the agencies have proposed. It also contends that the agencies' post-Rapanos guidance on navigable waters has not been faithful to the Rapanos decision.

Some local leaders have gone on
record saying they back Gov. Andrew
Cuomo’s plan for free
tuition, including
Dunkirk Mayor Willie
Rosas, Fredonia
Mayor Athanasia
Landis and State
University of New

New York leaders,
including Buffalo
Bills Hall of Famer
Thurman Thomas, Buffalo Mayor Byron
Brown and Erie County Executive Mark
Poloncarz, endorsed the Governor’s plan to
make college possible for New York fami-
lies making under $125,000 per year.
Approximately 80 percent, or 68,712
Western New York families, would qualify
to attend SUNY or CUNY tuition-free
under the Governor’s bold proposal.
As part of the new campaign, the
Governor is also deploying Lt. Gov. Kathy
Hochul and cabinet
members to meet
with students and
faculty at SUNY
and CUNY campus-
es statewide in sup-
port of the first-ever
free tuition plan at
both two- and four-
year colleges.
The Governor
also announced
New York state will
host the first-ever
statewide coding
competition for
SUNY and CUNY
students at all cam-
puses, the “Making
College Possible
Coding Challenge.”
The challenge will
encourage students
to use technology to
share information
about the Excelsior
Scholarship.
“In New York,
education was
always the great equalizer, but today far too
many young people have been deprived of
the advanced degree they need to get ahead,
compete in the global economy and secure
the jobs of tomorrow,” Gov. Cuomo said.

Pomfret town board signs off on
badly needed truck purchase
By GREG FOX
OBSERVER Assistant News Editor
A desperately needed snowplow
for the town of Pomfret will hope-
fully arrive by the next winter sea-
son.
The town board — during a
recent meeting — unanimously
approved the purchase of a 2018
Freightliner 114SD chassis, togeth-
er with the optional equipment,
extended engine warranty and RF
spring boost, from Fleet
Maintenance Inc. at a cost of
$121,429. As part of the same reso-
lution, the board authorized the
purchase of the Everest Plow
Equipment package from Valley Fab
and Equipment Inc. at a cost of
$94,298.
Both purchases are off a bid
through Onondaga County, which
allows other municipalities in New
York state to take advantage of its
contractual pricing.
“Having adopted that (resolu-
tion), I willingly ask you to focus on
how you’re going to pay for this
thing,” Town Attorney Jeffrey
Passafaro advised the board. “If it
does not come through, you need to
do a bond resolution, and remem-
ber, once we do a bond resolution,
we’ll need to prepare that in
advance. After adoption of the bond
resolution, we have to do the estop-
pel notice publications, and only
then can the supervisor sell the
bond anticipation note. So it’s about
a 45- to 60-day process.”
Supervisor Donald Steger noted
the town is still waiting to hear word
on a grant application for the 10-
wheeler. That will influence how
much the bond will be for, he added.
A current bond anticipation note
will be paid off so it will not have to
be renewed, he said.
Highway Superintendent Daniel
Bigelow mentioned he is not trading
in the vehicle being replaced.
Instead, the town will keep it as a
spare.
“Nothing went down yet, but
they do break and we don’t have a
spare,” he remarked.
He also thanked the board for
allowing him to purchase a badly
needed piece of his aging and crum-
bling highway fleet.
County legislator
contradicts Landis
on water district
By NICOLE GUGINO
OBSERVER City Editor
The Northern Chautauqua County
Regional Water District is moving for-
ward, but blaming Dunkirk for it doing so
without Fredonia is all wet, according to
District 2 County Legislator Bob
Bankoski.
The Fredonia
Village Board dis-
cussed the results
of a $150,000 engi-
neering study on
Monday, which
outlines the cost to
repair or decom-
mission its dam
and build an inter-
connect to
Dunkirk.
At that meeting,
a resident men-
tioned the village
was once being
considered as a
secondary supplier
for the district.
Mayor Athanasia
Landis gave a rea-
son why that is no longer the case.
“It’s not on the table anymore mainly
because Dunkirk doesn’t want that to
happen,” she said.
At Tuesday’s Common Council meet-
ing, Bankoski stated this is simply not
true.
“I was kind of disturbed this morning
when I read the paper with Mayor Landis,
who I thought took a shot at the city of
Dunkirk, because in my opinion, she felt
we were trying to force Fredonia out of
being a supplier for the North County
Water District. That is the farthest thing
away from what actually happened,” he
said. “Fredonia was offered an opportuni-
ty to be a provider for the water district
and County Executive (Vince) Horrigan
sent them a letter asking them to get on
board with the water district, but they
continued to drag their feet.”
