Village approves 50K to review eagle options

WATKINS GLEN--The village of Watkins Glen signed three agreements during their Tuesday, Sept. 2 meeting to review options to resolve an ongoing situation with the proposed regional wastewater treatment plant.

The agreements allot $50,000 to the Schuyler County partnership for Economic Development (SCOPED) who will then use that money on engineering services to deal with the issue. "That is an agreement we are going to do with SCOPED to allow... $50,000 to help facilitate the wastewater treatment plant moving ahead with some regulations, some proposals, some programs we have to pull together dealing with the eagle situation," Watkins Glen Mayor Mark Swinnerton said.

Legislature will consider gas storage opposition

YATES COUNTY--The Yates County Legislature agreed to consider a potential resolution in opposition to the Crestwood liquid petroleum gas (LPG) storage project in the Schuyler County, town of Reading. This came after the legislature heard a presentation from Gas Free Seneca representatives during their regular meeting Monday, Sept. 8. The legislature heard the group's concerns and agreed to consider the issue further in committee meetings before next month's meeting. Co-Founder of Gas Free Seneca Joseph Campbell spoke to the legislature asking them to take a stand in opposition.

KEUKA PARK, WATKINS GLEN--The Keuka Lake State Park has seen an 8 percent increase in summer attendance over last year.

Changing weather, changes local population
Changing weather, changes local population

TRI-COUNTY AREA--With the many favorable conditions of the Finger Lakes area, it is not an uncommon practice for people to purchase a house or cottage to reside in for a portion of the year. Yet, as the summer months are the most popular for visitors, when the colder weather comes it also causes some to seek a warmer climate for the colder months. Depending on where a town is located appears to have a factor on just how much of the population decides to leave for the winter. It is common for those who leave the area for a significant period to cancel or forward their local mail service during that time. Penn Yan Postmaster Cynthia Bailey said out of the 6,100 addresses her office delivers mail to, "less than 1,000" end up canceling their service during the winter months.

New nutritional standards begin this year

TRI-COUNTY AREA--Starting this school year, all foods sold at school will need to meet a new set of nutritional standards. The Smart Snacks in School regulation applies to foods sold a la carte, in the school store and vending machines. These standards are required by the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010 beginning in the 2014-15 school year. Prior to the implementing of the Smart Snacks rule, 39 states already had some sort of nutrition standards in place for their schools. According to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) the Smart Snacks in School program is intended to not only offer healthy food to students, but also limit the amount of junk food available to them. The snacks available should contain less empty calories and contain more nutritional value.

Wineries anticipate a lower harvest
Wineries anticipate a lower harvest

TRI-COUNTY AREA--As August winds to a close and fall settles in, area wineries begin preparing for the annual grape harvest. While it is still a few weeks before many vineyards begin bringing in this year's crop, many have begun anticipating what this year's crop may bring. Assistant Winemaker Brian Barry at Hunt Country Vineyards said last year, they did not start their harvest until Sept. 15. He said this year, they are looking at two weeks past that date to begin their harvest. Barry attributed the later harvest to the recent weather, saying the rain and cool nights has had an adverse effect on the harvest date. "We were thinking we were pretty good until about mid-June and then the weather just tanked," Barry said. "It's going to be a rough harvest. A lot of wineries source from the same vineyards and the fruit is just not there this year. With all the hail and storms and everything everybody is fighting for the same grapes that don't exist."
