 by Eric GrossPutnam Legislator Sam Oli-verio has called County Execu-tive Robert Bondi a “dictator.”The accusation was madelast week during discussion and debate over the county’ssolid waste management plan at a meeting of the countyLegislature’s Health, Social,Educational and Environmen-tal Committee.The legislature approved spending $2 million of the New York City Watershed settlement to allow propertyowners residing within the watershed with failing septicsystems to have their wastedisposal systems repaired at  no cost.The executive has refused to go along with the proposaland vetoed the measure, sinceBondi believes “money under county control can’t be given away.”Bondi was not at the June 9 meeting but in an interview, thefour-term executive explained,“This is a gifting program and if the county decides to offer a gift to one resident it better  be able to give it to all the residents of Putnam County,or at least to all the residentsin the watershed. This is not the case, which concerns megreatly.”Legislator Oliverio hasthreatened to take the execu-tive to court in order to free up the funds, charging that “taxes will not be increased,since the money is there in the form of $6.25 million in East of Hudson Watershed funds set aside specificallyfor septic repairs.”Bondi also questioned theissue of tax status. “When  money is given as a gift, doesit become taxable? Manyquestions must be researched and answered by the Depart- ment of Law prior to the hap- hazard administration of the program.”Oliverio, the lone Democrat on the Putnam Legislature and one of its senior members, said Bondi’s concerns were “far-fetched. The man is not thesole ruler of this county. If we have to, this legislature willfile an Article 78 proceedingto force the issue. The money will be used to repair septicsystems that are endangeringour drinking water.”Legislator Vincent Ta- magna, the Republican from Philipstown who serves asvice chairman of the Putnam Legislature, sided with hisDemocratic colleague. “Wedon’t need constant roadblocksand obstacles from the admin-istration time and time again after the legislators deliberateand spend hours and hours on the septic maintenance repair  program. The money will beallocated. It was approved  by all concerned. Even theDepartment of State called it a ‘great program.’ Similar  programs are being conducted  both east and west of the wa-tershed. Why is Putnam not  moving forward? Residentsare waiting. The environment continues to be polluted. The project must move forward  now—not through the next  budget process—not stalled so additional interest can becollected. The money was

Family Fun at ColdSpring Carnival
 by Michael MellThe June 9, 2009, Cold Spring Village Board monthly meeting began with the intro-duction of T.J. Rogers, who is a  representative from Congress- man John Hall’s office. Mr.Rogers explained that in ad-dition to national legislation,the House of Representativesalso addresses local munici- pal issues. Toward that end,Congressman Hall maintains a staff of district representativesto “keep in touch” with mu- nicipalities and constituentsin his district. Each district  representative acts as a point of contact with the Congress- man to answer questions and solicit comments from resi-dents about local, state and federal issues. After a brief introduction, Rogers opened the floor to questions.The first questioner asked

 by Michael Turton Some very familiar faces will be missing in the hallwaysand classrooms of Haldane’selementary and middle schoolsin September. At the end of the current school year, fiveteachers will retire— Barbara Conley, Judy Finehirsh, DallyLeDioyt, Betty Monroe, and Cheryl Saposnick . Veteransto say the least, they havetaught at Haldane for a com- bined total of more than 150 years. The PCN&R recentlyspoke with them about their careers, thoughts on Haldane,and their future. Betty Monroe, who describes her children as“6th generation Springers,” was unable to participate in the interview due to illness, but offered brief comments a few days later.In 1970 Barbara Conley began what would be a 39- year career teaching in theelementary school at Haldane. by Michael Turton Hearing names like The Su- per Slide, Gee Whizz, TheDragon, The Pumpkins, ExpoWheel, and The Sizzler, can  mean only one thing.

While the weather was not always cooperative—thecarnival was forced to closecompletely on Thursday dueto heavy rains—it did littleto dampen the enthusiasm of the parents, grandparents, and  kids who came out.Betsy Carone of Cold Spring watched with glee as her four and a half-year-old son Giancarlo sank six of twelvefree throws—and earned a colorful stuffed penguin for  his basketball skills. “I lovethe sense of community here;all my neighbors come” Mrs.Carone said. “It’s not too big,it’s great for the kids,” sheadded. Carone also said that in the midst of the current  recession the carnival takeson even more importance. “It  just brings everyone together.We really need that right now,”she concluded.Paul and Maria Cofini werevery happy to put their threeAveryann Zuvic is the Hal-dane High School Salutato- rian for the class of 2009.She will be at-tending Dick-inson Collegein Carlisle,Pennsylva- nia in the fall.She is an out-standing ath-lete and musi-cian as wellas a superla-tive scholar.Averyann  received the Universityof Rochester Humanities/Social SciencesAward.

Wistful Thanks AsFather’s Day Approaches
 by Michael Brendan DoughertySumming up his candidacy,Kevin McConville smiles and says bluntly, “Putnam needs professional police manage- ment.” The former chief of the MTA police, and 29-year veteran of that force has se-cured the nomination of theDemocratic party for Putnam County Sheriff, and intendsto unseat Sheriff Don Smiththis fall.Like many police officers, he wanted to be a cop from a young age. “When I wasfourteen, I witnessed a policeofficer perform CPR on an accident victim. And to me,that embodied what law en-forcement is about, service.I wanted to help my fellow man,” he says.McConville is a product of Cold Spring. “I’ve lived and raised my family in thiscommunity my whole life. I went to Haldane high school,” he says with pride. “Whether I was hanging out on Main Street eating a slice of pizza,or playing ball at the court- yard, people knew me. And Iliked the people here.”Since then, McConville has sent three children toHaldane, and coached sportsteams as his children grew up. “I was involved in thecommunity. I coached soc-cer, a sport I knew nothingabout. It was great and I had tremendous fun with that. Icoached baseball, football,and basketball. I wanted togive back to this community,Putnam, as a whole.” McCo- nville says that same attitudeof service animates his desireto be Sheriff.Just as McConville can claim to be a lifetime resi-dent of Putnam, he can alsoclaim real law enforcement experience in the county. As part of his career in the MTA, he worked out of a Brewster sub-station for the MTA in the 80s. While explaining his experiences in the MTA,McConville hints at what hesees as the deficiencies of the incumbent Sheriff, “Put- nam needs someone who has been a police officer. who has worked midnights, who has worked holidays, who has worked their son’s or daughter’s birthdays. We need someone that knows what goeson, and knows how to respond to it. And I bring that.”As he advanced through
Former MTA Chief Runsfor County Sheriff 
 by Joe Lindsley Jr For nearly three decades,the Philipstown Food Pantry has provided nourishment to the area’s hungry fami-lies. Operated through theFirst Presbyterian Church,the charity has become an ecumenical effort involvinga wide swathe of the commu- nity: On Saturday mornings, many Philipstown residentsvolunteer their time to helpthose in need select their food, others donate food throughout the week, and stillothers give money. Becausethere are no employees, and  because First Presbyterian  has provided space for free,there has been no overhead,and all money donated went straight toward buying food.That was the case untillast fall, when First Pres- byterian began extracting a  monthly contribution of $250from the food pantry’s bank account. That fee, and thechurch’s delay in notifyingthe public and the donorsof the monthly charge, has been the source of divisionsin the past months.Since January, outgoingfood pantry director JackieSammon has expressed her concern about the chargeand what she perceives to be a lack of transparency.Because the food pantry’s bank account is controlled  by First Presbyterian, somedonors are concerned that they do not know where the money is going.That was among the issuesthat prompted the incom-ing directors, Ellyn Varela-Burstein and Martha Cal-laway, to resign their postslast month before they wereslated to take over in July.Representatives of First Presbyterian have coun-tered that Sammon agreed to the fee—or at least did  not express opposition toit—when it was proposed last September. Moreover,the Reverend Leslie Mott,the church’s pastor, has said that Sammon has not been forthcoming about the food  pantry’s income, even thoughonly church officials haveaccess to the bank account.In a press release, thechurch noted that the food  pantry is a mission of the

 by Michael MellIn the absence of represen-tatives from GENERGY, who were scheduled to make a  presentation about a proposed solar power farm, the Putnam Valley Town Board’s June10, 2009, workshop agenda focused on two ongoing town issues: stray cats and Peek-skill Hollow Road.Councilwoman Priscilla Keresey distributed a DVD to board members describing theTrap-Neuter-Release (TNR)approach to the management of stray cat populations. Cit-ing this as a “quality of life”issue, Keresey suggested that the town establish a policy re-garding these animals. “Theyare not feral,” said Keresey,“but are household pets that  have been set loose by their owners . . . who think they will naturally survive in the wild . . . and this is usually not the case.”Putnam Felines, a local or-ganization that follows theTNR approach has reduced their colony of strays from 40to 17 over a three-year period.“Putnam Felines does not eu-thanize cats,” Keresey said,“which only animal sheltersand the SPCA are authorized to do.” Councilman Robert Cinque asked whether Ms.Keresey wished to Board “tocreate a town ordinance?” Ms.Keresey said no, but she felt that a policy and public edu-cation about the issue would  be beneficial. Licensing feescould help defray the costs to residents for neutering their cats, she added, and that town partnership with theSPCA could also reduce costs.Town attorney Bill Zutt informed the board he hascompleted preliminary re-search into options regard-ing preservation of PeekskillHollow Road. The last timethis issue came before the board, the distinction between designation as “scenic” vs.“historic” was identified, add-ing another condition into thealready controversial mix. North Salem’s approach, which Mr. Zutt thought might serve as a model for Putnam Valley, turned out only to ad-dress town roads. Likewise,the histories of other towns,such as Somers, that havecreated similar legislation,did not include all of the par-ticular conditions of PeekskillHollow Road, which has large portions outside of the town.Attorney Zutt suggested that  provisions of Article 12C of the NY State Highway Law might provide a solution. The purpose of the law is the protection and preservation of scenic and historic road- ways in the state, its cities,and towns. The town could  pass a resolution requestingthat Peekskill Hollow Road  be put on the list, but statelegislation would be required to effect it. Zutt suggested that county and state legis-lators be enlisted to assist in the process. In addition,the town could petition thestate directly. Zutt explained that the Department of Trans- portation (DOT) maintainsan advisory board of groupsinterested in the preservation of roadways in the state. It’s possible that the Friends of Peekskill Hollow Road could  become a member of thisadvisory group and perhapsexercise some greater influ-ence. Clearly more work needsto be done before this thornyissue can be settled once and for all.The next meeting of thePutnam Valley Town Board  will be held on June 17, 2009,at 7pm.

This week is rich with remembrance and celebration. TheHaldane High School Class of 2009 graduates on Saturday, and  we celebrate all of the graduating seniors in this Special Com- memorative Issue. Next week we will highlight Putnam ValleyHigh’s graduating seniors.On Sunday let’s remember to thank some of the most influ-ential men in our lives--our fathers--for their love and support.Believe it or not Sunday is also the solstice--the longest day of the year--and the first day of summer. Hard to believe, since thisis the wettest, coldest June on record!Birthdays abound, as well: Dr. Cynthia Ligenza, Cheryl Rock-ett, Bimal Patel, Alexa Carrington, Nancy Phillips, Jim Thomas,Anne Nichter, Willie Valenti, Theresa Van Tassel, Joseph Hyatt,Vikas Dharia, Luisa Barile, Isabelle Underkoffler, Jennifer Mo- ran, Mary C.

Thecounty executive signed that agreement with the New York City Department of Environ- mental Protection years ago.We must move on this now!”Meanwhile, William Har-ding of Somers, executivedirector of the Watershed Protection and PartnershipCouncil, rejected Bondi’s ob- jection to spend the additionalfunds stating, “both politicalarms of Putnam County must exercise rights and obligationsarising from the Watershed Agreement in one voice.”Putnam received $30 mil-lion from New York City when it signed the watershed accord in 1997. Over the years theaccount has grown to $42 million with interest.

The faithful of Our Lady of Loretto Parish took the HolyEucharist out to the streets of Cold Spring in their annualCorpus Christi Procession on Sunday afternoon, June 14.In honor of the Feast of theMost Holy Body and Blood of Jesus Christ, Catholics allover the world bring Jesus, in the Blessed Sacrament, out of their churches and intotheir neighborhoods so that everyone has a chance to bein the presence of God and so that God can be uniquely present to the community.This tradition has becomea source of great pride for Catholics, allowing them to publically witness to their fundamental belief, that JesusChrist is truly present, body, blood, soul, and divinity in the Holy Eucharist, the con-secrated bread that is carried  by their priest in the ornatelydecorated monstrance.In his homily at the Massthat preceded this EucharisticProcession, Fr. McSweeney reminded his parishionersthat here in America peopleare free to celebrate their faith publically, a right that is illegal in many places of the world.
