Nemo finds North Haven

Town faces ‘perfect storm’ offinancial dilemmas

North Haven was buried in snow by the blizzard.

Winter Storm Nemo hitNorth Haven as hard as it didmuch of the Northeast,dumping about three feet ofsnow throughout town.

“By 10 p.m. on Friday, wehad about a foot of snow,”said Public Works DirectorLynn Sadosky. “Then by 2a.m., we got two more feet,and keeping up with that be-

came got very tough. Oncethe blizzard hit, all bets wereoff.”

Nemo’s unusual severity,versus limited municipal re-sources, meant that manyroads in town remainedsnowed-covered for severaldays following the blizzard.North Haven plows could notkeep up with the rapid pre-cipitation, and even wereovertaken for a time.

“Early Saturday morning,

all five of our plows got stuckin the snow,” said First Se-lectman Michael Freda. “Wehad to dispatch our pay load-ers to the plows to dig themout. Each process of having apay loader dig out a plow tookabout two to three hours.That set us back dramatical-ly.”

Even after the brunt of theblizzard incapacitated townplows, the trucks kept gettingstuck in accumulation,which in some places toppedthree feet.

“It got to the point wherewe had to use pay loaders todig out roads before we couldever get our plows on thoseroads,” Freda said.

Main thoroughfares re-ceived attention first. “Oncewe plowed these primaryroads, we could access thesecondary roads,” Sadoskysaid. “Once we had the sec-ondary roads done, we couldaccess the cul-de-sacs.”

“At first we just plowed apath wide enough that anemergency vehicle could getdown,” she added. “Then we

This municipal budgetseason, North Haven facesa gathering storm of diffi-cult financial situations.

During the Feb. 7 Boardof Selectman meeting, 24hours before a blizzarddumped snow throughouttown, local leaders ex-plained the layers of diffi-culties in creating a munic-ipal budget for fiscal year2013-14.

State funding is down.Health insurance costs areup. The middle school re-quires rebuilding or a newlocation. And cost increas-es in the proposed 2013-14budget would merely keepservices as is.

The proposed town-sidebudget of $40.9 million rep-resents a 6.5-percent in-crease over the current fis-cal year. At $45.7 million,the Board of Educationbudget is 5.9 percent larger.

“I don’t want to down-

play it,” said First Select-man Michael Freda. “We’vetried to conduct ourselvesin this administration bypresenting the facts. Andthe facts are that we have avery serious issue this yearwith this year’s budget. Iencourage you to come outfor our public meetings.We’re working very hard toget cost-increase numbersdown. But we’re faced witha perfect storm of dilem-

Vanacore sought equality for female athletesBy Eric Vo and

Kim DohenySpecial to the Citizen

When it comes to equalrights and fairtreatment offemale ath-letes, the en-actment of Ti-tle IX comes tomind. But be-fore the lawwas passed onJune 23, 1972,Carolyn Dorsey Vanacorewas instrumental in creatingequal opportunities for fe-males in public schools andcollege athletics, including inNorth Haven.

For her efforts, Vanacorewas inducted last year into

Vanacore

the North Haven High SchoolHall of Fame. On March 22,2013, the Wallingford nativewill be honored at theWallingford Education Foun-dation’s ninth annual Distin-guished Alumni Dinner.

“She was just unbeliev-able,” said Stephen Hoag,chairman of the WallingfordEducation Foundation’s dis-tinguished alumni dinner.“There’s really no one way todescribe her.”

Vanacore graduated fromWallingford Lyman HallHigh School in 1948. She grewup in a time before there wereany school buses, so she saidshe would walk about a mileto get to school. Going toschool back then “wasn’t likethe typical high school expe-rience,” she said.

“We went to the highschool in the building that isnow the Town Hall,” Vana-core said. “We had a boys bas-ketball team, but not a girlsbasketball team. There wasnot a lot of activity forwomen athletes.”

It wasn’t until later on inher high school career thatVanacore had her first expe-rience in athletics, thanks toLouise Comey Ives, the newfemale physical educationteacher.

“She was like a gift fromheaven,” she said. “She alsohad been deprived of activi-ties as a college student, sowe started something call‘play days.’”

Play days wasn’t an offi-cial sporting event, withschools competing againstone another. Instead, it was atime when students fromother schools would gatherto play basketball and play afriendly game, she said.

In high school, Vanacorealso became a member of theWallingford “Owlettes,” one

of the first softball teams inthe area. After graduation,she attended New HavenTeachers College — nowknown as Southern Con-necticut State University —where she majored in physi-cal education and participat-ed in club sports in basket-ball and softball.

Vanacore graduated col-lege in 1952, and became ateacher. She said she still“was eager to providewomen of the world more.”She got the opportunitywhen she was 20 years old

and teaching at NorthHaven High School.

“It provided me with anopportunity to do somethingfor the girls and women andto support them in sports,”Vanacore said. “We had ayoung staff and we workedtogether and started many ofthe first athletic teams forthe school.”

During her 13 years atNHHS, she served as coach,teacher and intramural ac-

Community service drive leads to HEARTSafe certificationBy Kyle Swartz

The North Haven Citizen

Thanks in part to efforts ofone town resident, NorthHaven recently became astate-certified HEARTSafecommunity, meaning life-saving artificial external de-fibrillator must be availablein minimum 12 municipalbuildings.

North Haven now has 28

AED sites, between privateand municipal locations.Many of these were broughtabout by the Khan family,who own and operate severallocal medical businesses,and by one of their employ-ees, Mark Lesage of NelsonAmbulance.

“It’s a great feeling toknow that in the town ofNorth Haven, God forbidsomebody has a heart attack,

we can save them,” Lesagesaid. “It’s a huge accomplish-ment. I want to thank all thenon-profits and businesseswho got involved. The com-munity really came togeth-er.”

Attaining HEARTsafe cer-tification necessitated thatLesage raise thousands ofdollars for multiple AED

purchases, coordinate acrossnumerous businesses andcharitable organizations,and work with state officials.He has a passion for commu-nity service, with an internaldrive to see projects throughcompletion. He talks swiftly,carries and answers severalSmartphones, checks emailson an iPad, and gets recog-

nized in public for what he’sdone for North Haven.

State budget feels effects of ObamacareBy Susan Haigh

The Associated Press

HARTFORD - The federalhealth care law is providingboth challenges and opportu-nities for Connecticut law-makers as they spend thecoming weeks trying toreach a state budget compro-mise with Gov. Dannel P. Mal-loy.

The two-year, $43.8 billionproposal unveiled by the De-mocratic governor last weekincludes millions of dollarsin health care spending need-ed to comply with the Afford-able Care Act. But it also re-

lies on millions of dollars insavings that the law gener-ates.

The law “creates a greatdeal of change in our budg-et,” acknowledged BenBarnes, secretary of the Of-fice of Policy and Manage-ment and Malloy’s budgetchief.

Medicaid costs are one ofthe leading drivers of spend-ing growth in Malloy’s budg-et, which increases spendingby 5.1 percent in the firstyear and 3.9 percent in thesecond, Barnes said. About$382 million is spent on case-load growth in human serv-

ices agencies and changesunder the health care law.That includes expandingMedicaid eligibility to morepeople and increasing Med-icaid reimbursements paidto primary care physicians.While the state must foot thebill up front, it eventuallywill be reimbursed 100 per-cent by the federal govern-ment.

That reimbursement ratewill adjust downward to 90percent by 2020.

Back in 2010, Connecticutreceived approval from thefederal government to ex-pand Medicaid coverage toan estimated 45,000 low-in-come adults who had beenenrolled in the state’s oldprogram known as GeneralAssistance. But the number

of eligible adults far sur-passed expectations. As ofDecember, 86,870 people hadenrolled in the program, nowknown as Low-IncomeAdults. Beginning Jan. 1,2014, states further expandeligibility for the program.Connecticut estimates that

mas.”“It’s going to get to the

point in North Haven, and it’salready gotten to this point inother cities and towns, whereit’s either going to be a reduc-tion in services to controltaxes, or a tax increase tokeep the services,” he added.

A hike in healthcare costs,once again, is a major causeof price increases.

“The health insurance in-crease is 29.1 percent,” Fredasaid. “That is based on onething and one thing only –claims incurred. The way itworks is, insurance compa-nies take a 13-month lookback, they look at the month-ly claims, and then give you aquote based on those 13months. We’ve had some seri-ous illnesses with the em-ployees of the town. That isthe largest driver.”

To help address this prob-lem, Town Hall has alreadyput out to bid the contract forproviding employee healthinsurance. But one insurancecarrier already has declinedservice. In response to suchissues, Freda said that he hasformed a “bipartisan healthinsurance committee.” Thisis comprised of himself, Di-rector of Finances EdSwinkowski, RepublicanBoard of Finance memberBill Peiper, North Haven in-surance agents and Democ-rat BOF member MichaelHallahan, who in past yearshas debated how Town Hallgoes about buying health in-surance.

“It’s working out well,”Hallahan said of the newcommittee. “I’m happy withthe process and openness andlevel of participation on be-half of both parties to findthe right solutions for thetown.”

With employee costs risingin recent budget cycles, Fre-da has sought changes. Twounion contracts recently set-tled included increased em-ployee contributions towardmedical insurance, and re-placed pensions for new staffwith 401ks.

“Twenty years from now,no employee working forNorth Haven will have a pen-sion,” Freda said. “I give the

Freda said he brought inoutside contractors to pro-vide extra assistance, andalso contacted Gov. DannelMalloy for additional aid. Atthe time, Malloy told Fredathat Connecticut resourceswere tapped out.

“And as all this is happen-ing, we were having medicalemergencies popping up allover town,” Freda said.“These were people withheart problems, people withdiabetes, people who neededto see their doctors. We rede-

lated reasons. “Most peoplewere very nice,” Sadoskysaid. “I would say that onlyone out of every ten callswas an angry one. I thinkpeople were very under-standing about this blizzardbeing the magnitude ofsomething that we don’t seeall the time.”

By Monday, only 12 of 124roadways in North Haven re-mained unplowed, Fredasaid. By Tuesday, Sadoskysaid that number was downto one road.

While North Haven mayhave cleaned up much ofBlizzard Nemo’s precipita-tion, the financial conse-quences will linger long af-ter the snow melts.

“The storm will definitelycause us to go way over ourclean-up budget,” Fredasaid. “But we have to do that.My first concern is gettingthis massive logistical clean-up job done first. Then wewill analyze the expense as-pect of it afterwards.”

“I will be looking to see if,

down the road, there will beany federal reimbursementavailable through FEMA forthis storm,” he added.

ployed our resources to thesehomes so that these peoplecould get out.”

“Our police and fire de-partments were involved,” headded. “During and after theblizzard, every town resourcewas operating at maximum.”

The town’s handful of bob-cat vehicles chipped in wherepossible. Freda canceled san-itation operations, but hadsanitation employees fill infor plow drivers, who neededbreaks during their 36 hoursof work.

“We had to give our driversat least four hours of sleep,”Freda said.

THANK YOU for choosing us #1“Best Home Improvement Contractor”

VanacoreContinued from page 2

tivity director for severalarea schools. She beganmany high-school programsfor girls, including field hock-ey, basketball, softball andtrack and field. Although theschedules were limited, thegirls were eager and willingto become active members ofthe Housatonic League.

Her NHHS softball teamcompeted with other teamsthroughout the state. Vana-

core said she was excitedthat girls were finally gettinga chance to participate inathletics.

“Here we were playingteams throughout the state,”she said. “This was probablya higher level of competitionthan what was happening atthe college level at the time.”

Despite it being a male-dominated world at the timewhen it came to athletics,Vanacore said she never en-countered any challenges orobstacles when she tried todevelop opportunities for

girls - something she creditsto her positive attitude.

“Whenever I was fightingfor something or working toachieve something, I did it ina positive manner . . . I nevertook ‘no’ for an answer,” shesaid. “In the town I worked inwe had wonderful coopera-tion and extremely wonder-ful support from the par-ents.”

Vanacore has been recog-nized by many organizationsover the years. She has beeninducted into the LymanHall High School Hall of

Fame, as well as the Con-necticut Women’s BasketballHall of Fame. She receivedthe National Girls’ andSports “Pathfinder” Award,the Connecticut Associationof Athletic Directors Distin-guished Service Award aswell as the Easter DistrictMerit Award in Physical Ed-ucation.

Vanacore continues towork part-time, supervisingstudent-teachers throughoutthe state. She is a 60-year res-ident of North Haven, whereshe and her late husband,Michael, raised two children,Brad Vanacore and LynnVanacore Bloom. In herspare time, she visits hergrandchildren, plays tenniswith friends, or attendsmeetings for the variouscommittees on which shestill serves.

Even at the age of 82,Vanacore is still active infighting for equal treatment

for women in athletics, some-thing she has not yet beenachieved in the country. Sheis an adjunct professor atSouthern and frequently par-ticipates in events that dealwith equality.

When it comes to equality,Vanacore doesn’t just look atsalaries and whether or notwomen are getting paid asmuch as their male counter-parts. While it plays a part,Vanacore said it has to domore with the opportunitiesthat are open to women.

“The number of opportu-nities for more women tomove into a leadership posi-tions is what we are current-ly working on,” Vanacoresaid.

Eric Vo reports for theRecord-Journal, Meriden.Follow him on Twitter @er-icvoRJ. Citizen editor KyleSwartz contributed to this re-port.

unions a great deal of creditfor giving us that back. Be-cause the pension, as we seein surrounding towns, is un-sustainable.”

However, these representfuture savings. “North Havenin coming years will be therecipient of hundreds andhundreds of thousands ofdollars – perhaps into themillions – in pensions andhealthcare savings, but wecan’t capture much of thatthis year,” Freda said.

Another factor which com-plicates budget season 2013 isa massive Connecticutdeficit. With a projected stateshortfall of $1.1-billion nextyear, Gov. Dannel Malloy lastweek released his proposed2013-2015 biennial budget. AsFreda has been predicting formonths, municipalities tooka hit.

Malloy seeks eliminationof municipal car taxes for ve-hicles worth $28,500 or less.While this would mean lowertaxes for many, it loses moneyfor towns and cities.

“Look at this two ways,”Freda said. “On one hand,that helps people across thestate. But on the other hand,for us in North Haven, it cre-ates a revenue hole. In largercities, it could be anywhere


from $12-to-$15 million. So allthe mayors and first select-men and elected officialsacross the state are wonder-ing how we’re going to makethis up.”

Freda calculated thatNorth Haven would lose$4,248,035 in annual revenueif General Assembly passedMalloy’s car-tax measure. “Ineffect, it’s actually a trickle-down tax increase, becausemunicipalities cannot makethese dollars up without anadverse affect on cuttingservices,” he said.

Yearly, North Haven re-ceives $5.6 million in stateaid. Because that aid willgrow in some areas – educa-tion, for instance – the townwas facing a net loss of $1.1million from Connecticut.Town officials already havemoved to offset this red ink.

“Working closely with ourstate representatives DaveYaccarino and Len Fasano,we were able to make up the$1.1 million through what’scalled a ‘hold-harmless’grant that the state is going togive us that equalizes the lossof the $1.1 million,” Fredasaid.

Still, with flat-funding atbest from Connecticut, NorthHaven has fewer ways to dealwith cost increases. In keep-ing services level, the pro-

An Ounce of Prevention

How low can you go?By V. Deborah Culligan,

RN, MPH

When temperatures arefrigid, hypothermia andfrostbite can occur rapidlywith just a short period ofexposure. You need to takeprecautions for yourself,your children and for thosewho are older, especially ifthey live alone.

Hypothermia is a danger-ous loss of heat from a per-son’s body, which can lead todeath if not detected andtreated early. Anyone can ex-perience hypothermia, al-though the young and theold are most at risk. Factorsthat can influence the devel-opment of hypothermia in-clude illness, living alone,physical inactivity, poor nu-trition, inadequate clothing,wetness, poor heating, cer-tain medications or alcoholuse.

Hypothermia can happen

very quickly when it is ex-tremely cold, especially ifbody parts are unprotectedby warm coverings. Immer-sion in cold water, wind chilland wetness are potentialcauses. What most peopledon’t know is that prolongedexposure to mild cold (30-60degrees F) can also cause hy-pothermia, particularly ininfants and the elderly.

Early symptoms may in-clude shivering and difficul-ty in performing tasks. Astime goes on, symptoms mayalso include slurred speech,stumbling, confused think-ing, weakness, fatigue,drowsiness, weak pulse,shallow breathing, and/or

“acting like a different per-son.”

Additionally in the elderly,you might see unusualsleepiness, difficulty walk-ing, bloated face, pale or odd-ly pink skin, and/or trem-bling on one side of the bodyor in one arm or leg. For anyaged person, as hypothermiabecomes more severe, mus-cles may become rigid andthe heart beat irregular. Theperson may lose conscious-ness.

To prevent hypothermia,be sure to dress warmlywhen outdoors. Layers ofclothing provide the best in-sulation. (Polar fleece cloth-ing is terrific!) Hats are im-portant for preventing heatloss from the head. Try tostay dry and change wetclothing before returningoutdoors. Proper nutritionand plenty of fluids will alsohelp.

Preparing for unforeseenevents is also important. Inbad weather, using the buddysystem while outdoors is agood idea. Carry a wintersurvival kit in your car:sand, scraper, flashlight,flares, tools, blankets andsome food. Indoors, keepyour home above 65 degreesF for most of the time youare there.

A winter to rememberfor Malloy

By Chris Powell

As inconvenience andfrustration built from thesnowfall of last weekend’sblizzard, Governor Malloynoted that state and munic-ipal road departments aredoing the best they can. In-deed they were, along withthe governor himself, whohas been tirelessly coordi-nating government’s limit-ed resources to undo thedamage of a snowfall un-precedented in 124 years,since the legendary Bliz-zard of 1888.

At least now Connecticuthas machinery for snow re-moval. But Connecticut hasneither the machinery northe operators to deal quick-ly with a snowstorm thisbig. A few days after thesnow stopped, some sidestreets, especially in thecities and inner suburbs,still were not cleared andpossibly faced a few moredays without clearing.

Fifteen months ago whena rare snowstorm in Octo-ber brought trees downthroughout much of thestate and caused unprece-dented damage to electricpower lines, the governorand other officials were notquite as patient with Con-

necticut Light & Power Co.Back then inconvenienceand frustration quicklyturned into accusations ofnegligence and incompe-tence and threats of puni-tive action.

But of course no institu-tion, power company orgovernment, is really pre-pared for the unprecedent-ed. The cost would be pro-hibitive.

Last weekend’s blizzardlasted more than 24 hours.Many plow drivers workedstraight through but thenhad to be given some restlest they collapse from ex-haustion. Sometimes,plows had to be diverted toside streets for medicalevacuations. But good mo-bility on major routes wasrestored on Sunday, a re-markable achievement. Onthe whole state and localgovernment can be proudof their work.

And on some side streetswhere the plows were late,residents began workingtogether to clear the streetthemselves with snowblowers and shovels, prov-ing that the true militia isthe community.

If you suspect that a fami-ly member has hypothermia,get medical help right away.A delay could cause seriousharm. Keep the person warmwith blankets. Remove cloth-ing if it is wet and replacewith dry clothes. Do not try

WinterContinued from page 14

* * *Nobody will begrudge any-

thing to plow drivers rightnow, but the blizzard dis-closed a profound injusticein Connecticut.

When the governor closednon-emergency state govern-ment offices on Friday andMonday, as roads and park-ing lots were not yet pre-pared for normal traffic,state employees were paidnot to work. But private-sec-tor businesses that could notopen and employees whosebusinesses stay closed orwho could not get to worklost substantial income.

That is, only government’sown employees were heldharmless against the storm.The people who pay thoseemployees just suffered an-

other blow. And of coursewhat calls itself Connecti-cut’s Working Families Par-ty had nothing to say aboutthis injustice, as the party isjust a front for the coddledpublic employee unions.

The governor might bene-fit from more sensitivityabout such issues. Explain-ing his new state budget pro-posal last week, he boastedabout appropriating thefunds necessary to push thestate employee pension fundtoward solvency. As theylack pensions themselveseven as they pay for the de-fined-benefit pensions stateemployees get, most taxpay-ers may not be too im-pressed by this aspect of thebudget and may wonder whytheir own IRA and 401(k) re-tirement savings plansaren’t good enough for stateemployees too.

Over the weekend, Malloyremarked on WFSB-TV3’s“Face the State” programthat if he had been governorin 1997 when the HartfordWhalers NHL hockey teamleft for North Carolina, “Iwouldn’t have let them go.”

But back then keeping thehockey team was alreadycosting state government bigmoney. By the Journal In-quirer’s calculation as theWhalers prepared to leave,state government was subsi-dizing each Whalers ticketby about $32 and writing off$60 million in loans to theteam.

Commentary

Malloy’s budget is fiscal framework to be improvedBy Kyle Swartz

Gov. Dannel P. Malloy’sproposed $43.8-billion two-year budget is reflective ofthe overall American eco-nomic atmosphere. As thereare no easy answers regard-ing national issues like tax-es, healthcare and debt,Malloy’s imperfect handlingof them in Connecticut isunsurprisingly easy to criti-cize. But a still-recoveringstate economy — burdenedby a projected $1.1-billiondeficit next year — requirestough choices about whatvaluable programs must getcut. To his credit, in his fi-nancial work, Malloy hasmade those difficult deci-sions, though room remainsfor improvement.

State Republicans havecriticized this budget for up-ping spending 9 percentover two years, borrowing$750 million and delayingcomplete repayment of $1billion borrowed in 2009 forrecession aid by former Gov.M. Jodi Rell.

Education funding com-mendably will rise, al-though schools could facereductions at the municipal

level due to dollars lost bytowns and cities elsewhere.The deepest single cut is tothe Department of SocialServices, affecting a varietyof helpful safety-net pro-grams. Such scale-backs areregrettable, but perhaps un-avoidable amidst a com-pressed economy in whichgovernment expensesshould be thoroughlytrimmed. As soon as condi-tions improve, though, weurge full restitution of wel-fare systems.

In light of his $1.5-billiontax increase of two yearsago, the governor pledgedno new taxes in this budget.However, several of hismeasures, while not overttaxes, either exist to gener-ate additional revenue orwill raise residents’ expens-es in different manners.

State businesses report-edly were under the impres-sion that a corporation taxsurcharge and electricalgeneration tax created in2011 would expire in 2013.Malloy now seeks extensionof both for another biennialcycle, doing little for Con-necticut’s sometimes-repu-tation of inconsistent gov-

ernmental policies aboutbusiness.

Malloy reduced statefunding for hospitals by $548million over two years. In afinancially bloated industry,these are much-needed sav-ings, which unfortunatelycould carry the side-effect ofincreasing patients’ out-of-pocket payments. Cuts in-clude hefty scale-backs indollars which had helpedcover costs of treating theuninsured and recipients ofConnecticut’s HUSKYhealth insurance program.As the governor’s suggestedbudget would begin next fis-cal year, starting July 1, he’sprobably assuming that lostmoney will be federally off-set soon in 2014 when Oba-macare ramps up. Untilthen — and/or if Oba-macare proves ineffective —Malloy has put hospitals ina debilitative situation. Andhealthcare officials likelywill shift monetary painonto patients in the form ofhigher charges.

Another proposal whichcould further drain resi-dents’ wallets is a tax elimi-nation.

Curiously, Malloy wants

to end municipal car taxeson all vehicles worth lessthan about $28,500. Whileupon first glance this mightseem a financial boost formany people, it means mil-lions in vanished revenuefor towns and cities. Exactestimations are not yetavailable, though the Con-necticut Conference of Mu-nicipalities has projectedlosing a majority of the $560million annually raised thisway. Danbury’s mayorthinks this hit could cost hiscity $10 million. And to ad-dress fiscal shortfalls, mu-nicipalities could eitherraise other property taxesor shrink budgets, includingeducation spending. Where-as some cuts posed by Mal-loy appear unfortunate-but-necessary, this misguided

notion seems meaninglessand half-baked.

This budget is merely ablueprint, an imperfect onewhich deals with moderneconomic problems by right-ly trying to spread burdensevenly. It has concepts worthkeeping — healthcare andsocial services adjustments— and others in need of re-thinking — the car tax, over-loading expenses for resi-dents. Using his fiscal frame-work, General Assembly hasuntil June 5 to reach agree-ment with Malloy, andshould work with coopera-tion and open debate to cor-rect shortcomings and builda better budget.

Special to The Citizen

The North Haven HighSchool boys’ hockey teamhad eight days off to restand prepare to play thestate’s undefeated (14-0),top-ranked team, FairfieldPrep.

This game, which on pa-per looked to be a mismatchfor the Indians, remainedclose until midway throughthe second period.

The Jesuits scored a pairof goals in the first periodbut Indian senior Alec Rizzoput back a rebound for anunassisted goal to cut thedeficit to 2-1.

The game stayed competi-tively close until a NorthHaven penalty midwaythrough the second gaveFairfield Prep an extra at-tacker and the Jesuitscashed in for a power playgoal and a 4-1 lead.

It was at this point thatthe Indians lost control ofthe game. After two moregoals, a goalie change andanother couple scores, Fair-field Prep ended up takingthis one with an 8-1 final.

Indian co-captain KarlAnderson missed his thirdstraight game while nursinga knee injury but is expect-ed back for the next game.

The loss dropped NorthHaven to a 3-9-2 record withsix games to play. The Indi-ans need to win four ofthose games to qualify forthe state tournament. Threeof their games are againstD-II opponents, and two are

posed price hikes in the 2013-14 budget include capital re-quests of $2.8 million on thetown side and $1 million foreducation.

“We are analyzing ourneeds and determining whatwe need, especially on thecapital side,” Freda said.“When we look at capital,these are not the ‘bells andwhistles,’ but what depart-ments need to retain servicesthat the town offers. So withthat, we’re micromanagingevery aspect of the budget.Will there be $2.8 millionworth of capital on the townside and $1 million on theBOE side? No. We’re goingthrough the workshops nowon the Board of Finance andwatching every single aspectof this to determine what theneeds are versus what thetown and taxpayers can af-

ford.”Providing fiscal assis-

tance, North Haven has en-joyed a recent surge in eco-nomic development — Yale-New Haven Hospital, Sus-tainable Building Systems,many smaller businesses, afuture finally announced forthe Pratt and Whitney plan.“The breadth of economicdevelopment in town is quiteimpressive,” said second se-lectman Tim Doheny. But theretrospective nature of col-lecting municipal taxesmeans that these revenuedrivers won’t help for at leasta year.

Meanwhile, BlizzardNemo will push the wintercleanup line item over budg-et. And the deterioratingphysical condition of themiddle school requires sig-nificant attention. Fredasaid that they will considerseveral options, either reno-vation, construction of anew school or moving into

the former Gateway Collegecampus on Bassett Road.

“We are faced, ladies andgentlemen, with a tremen-dous amount of challengesmoving forward,” Fredasaid. “This fiscal year, thisbudget, is going to be themost difficult budget thatwe’ve had here in NorthHaven in many, many years.”

Escalating healthcarecosts and Connecticut’s un-steady economic atmospherewill force North Haven andmunicipalities throughout tochoose between raising taxesor cutting services. NorthHaven residents can voiceopinions about these diffi-cult decisions in upcomingpublic hearings on the budg-et, the first of which is April2.

“I encourage everyone tocome to these meetings,”Freda said. “I’m really inter-ested in what the public hasto say.”

bucks and say, ‘I know youfrom the paper,’” he said witha laugh. “They’ll say that Ihelped get great things done.But it’s been a long projectwith a lot of people helping. Ihave to thank Nelson Ambu-lance, the Lions Club, theItalian Youth Organization,the North Haven Rotary,Mario Ladino of PaulMitchell, Rich Branigan ofKids for Kids, anyone I forgotto mention.”

“AEDs are simple devices,”he added. “You shouldn’t bescared to use one. You push abutton on it and then it startsvoicing instructions. It candetect whether you haveplaced the pads correctly on aperson. And anybody at anytime can have a heart at-tack.”

Lesage’s employerslearned that lesson first-hand. Had an AED not beenat Montowese Healthcare,owner Farooq Khan mightnot be alive today.

“Farooq’s son Sal waswalking out of MontoweseHealthcare in the late 90s,”Lesage said. “He heard overthe loudspeaker onsite thathis mother had ‘called thecode’ for a heart attack. Hisfather Farooq had gone down

This 2010 photo shows, from left, Montowese Elemen-tary School nurse Mary Pallutto, gym instructor ChrisBarry, and former principal Anthony Mancini with theschool’s then-new AED, which was donated throughthe efforts of John Caserta of the Italian Youth Foun-dation, North Haven Rotary president President NickCasella, and Mark Lesage of Nelson Ambulance.

with a heart attack inside.”“Sal administered AED

treatment to his father withthe oldest AED in the build-ing,” Lesage continued. “Hesaved his father’s life.”

This harrowing incidentwas still on the mind of theKhans when Sal, who ownsand operates Nelson Ambu-lance, hired Lesage in 2007.Sal told Lesage the story ofsaving his father, which mo-tivated the employee intoseeing what it took installAEDs elsewhere, beginningwith local schools.

By 2009, Lesage was meet-

ing with North Haven’s firechief before work, early inthe morning, to determineproper locations for AEDs intown schools. Montowese El-ementary School becameLesage’s first site. The life-saving devices cost about$1,000 each, and Sal and theNorth Haven Italian YouthOrganization chipped in andpurchased an AED for Mon-towese.

“That was a great accom-plishment,” Lesage said. “Iwas excited for all the kidswho went to that school to besafer.”

Lesage then turned toNorth Haven’s other elemen-tary schools, as the middleand high school already con-tained units. Lesage gotAEDs into the other threeschools, and Sal donatedtraining for staff. As theywould throughout theprocess, Landino Signs ofHamden donated all letter-ing placed on AED units andcases. Nelson Ambulancealso trained town police offi-cers for free.

Donations financing theAEDs came from local Rotar-ians and Lions, Kids for Kidsand Mario Landino of PaulMitchell. “This project wasimportant to us because weall have a heart and it’s im-

portant to give back to thecommunity which supportsus,” said Mario Landino. “Ithink AEDs and heart healthare something that we alltake for granted. Especiallywhen you find out how muchheart disease is out there.”

Lesage then broadened hiscommunity service projectto municipal buildings andnursing homes. After that, itwas a matter of filling outstate paperwork for HEART-Safe certification. In receiv-ing the qualification, NorthHaven is entitled to ten roadsigns advertising the town asa HEARTSafe community, aswell as stickers for buildingsto identify structures as con-taining an AED.

would add another nearly60,000 people to the program.

In the meantime, the stateis trying to shed some high-er-income recipients andtransfer them to private in-surance plans offered underthe new state-based HealthInsurance Exchange, whichwas created under the feder-al health care law. BeginningJan. 1, 2014, people and smallbusinesses will be able to buycoverage through the ex-change. State officials esti-mate nearly 10 percent of thestate’s estimated populationof nearly 3.6 million is unin-sured and will be required topick up insurance or pay a fi-nancial penalty.

Jason Madrak, chief mar-keting officer for the ex-change, said those higher-in-come Medicaid recipientsare still poor enough to qual-ify for some of the heavilysubsidized plans that will beoffered in the exchange.

“We’re ready as of Octo-ber to help those individuals,and we look forward to tak-ing on that responsibility,”said Madrak, adding how theexchange is planning a large-scale outreach effort that in-cludes directly contactingthose current recipients, butalso providing funding tocommunity-based organiza-tions to get the word outabout the new insurance of-ferings.

State officials are bankingon greater access to healthinsurance under the newHealth Insurance Exchangewill ultimately reduce howmuch the state spends on theuninsured.

North Haven Service Directory

Malloy’s budget cuts stateaid to hospitals by $208.1 mil-lion in the first year and$342.4 million in the secondyear.

“We believe that as theMedicaid expansion and theAffordable Care Act healthinsurance exchanges are putin place, that the number ofuninsured will decrease to 1or 2 percent within a rela-tively few short years. Theresult of it is that the amountof uncompensated care pro-vided by hospitals will dra-matically shrink,” saidBarnes, acknowledging thatthe Malloy administration isreducing its assistance tohospitals earlier than they’llsee such changes in the in-surance market.

“We’re doing that becausewe need to reduce spendingin the budget,” he said,adding the state is stillspending $1.6 billion on hos-pitals.

The state’s acute care hos-pitals say the proposal would

be financially harmful andurged state lawmakers to op-pose the cuts.

“The administration hasacknowledged that thesecuts will hurt hospitals, butthat is an understatement.Quite simply, it will devas-tate them,” said JenniferJackson, president and CEOof the Connecticut HospitalAssociation, predicting willcause lasting damage andlead to job cuts at hospitals.

While the association sup-ports moving Medicaid pa-tients into the ConnecticutHealth Insurance Exchange,Jackson said it “must bedone in a responsible way sothere is no gap in coverage,and so the health care sav-ings achieved from thatmove is reinvested in thehealth care system.”

Lawmakers have untiltheir June 5 adjournment toreach an agreement withMalloy on a new, two-yearbudget. The next fiscal yearbegins July 1.

At a recent Fridayevening of fellowship in thenew banquet facility atBellini’s Restaurant, theNorth Haven Rotary Clubgathered for some relax-ation, as well as a review oftheir first six months ofservice to the communityunder the leadership ofPresident Michael Halla-han. However, the night’sactivities opened with theofficial induction of newmember, Donna Mae Can-giano, by Rotary DistrictGovernor Elect, Dr. RichardBassett.

The 50 members andguests present were soon tolearn from LuAnn Buono,the new member’s sponsor,that from her childhooddays at Queen of the WorldElementary School in St.Mary’s, Pennsylvania,where the school girlhelped her mom with aBrownie troop, the inducteehas spent her life doingthings for others. As a highschool student at Elk Coun-ty Christian, she not onlytaught others how to bakeand sew as a leader at 4H,but she worked on paradefloats, sold potato pancakesat local festivals, served thehospitalized and visitors asa candy striper, and evensang in the church choir,specializing in weddingsand funerals, at no charge.

Cangiano, 1978 graduateof Clarion State Collegewith a BS in business ad-ministration and account-ing, and 2004 graduate ofQuinnipiac University witha Masters in Teaching, hasresided in North Havensince 1989. Although theCPA was a successful busi-ness woman prior to teach-ing from 2004-08, Cangianosaid, “I wanted to give backafter hearing PresidentGeorge Bush talk about his‘1000 Points of Light’ and

the need for everyone togive back. I loved teaching,and my students.” Shewould remain after classesto assist her students, andeven provided a free break-fast to her wards duringstate testing. However, Can-giano later explained thatshe decided to return to theworld of accounting for per-sonal reasons. Nonetheless,she continued to tutor chil-dren in math.

Indicating that when herson, Ben, started schoolthat her life “revolvedaround him, the school, andthe PTA,” she revealed thatshe began as the fundrais-ing chairman, then becametreasurer, and eventuallyserved as the PTA presi-dent. Cangiano’s list ofschool fundraising salesand events was endless. Shealso served as a room moth-er for her son’s classes in el-ementary school, andshelved books in the schoollibrary. The active momalso stated, “One of myfondest memories as akindergarten room motherwas making valentineFrench toast! I believe thefirst year I prepared pink

heart-shaped French toastwas with Theresa Viele,” awell-known resident whoseson, Jack, was in the firstgrade at the time.

As a parishioner at St.Therese Church on Middle-town Avenue, Cangianoserved on the finance com-mittee, as well as raisingfunds for the new parishcenter.

Not only could she befound in the food booth atthe annual carnival, butshe was a lector at Mass,and every Monday morningcounted the weekend offer-ings to the church.

In retrospect over theweekend, she made the fol-lowing comments about herspecial evening at Bellini’s,“It was a wonderful eveningwith welcoming friends,marvelous food, mid-yearRotary highlights, enter-taining music, and relaxingconversations. I am lookingforward to rolling up mysleeves and helping withthe many volunteer effortsof this great organization!”
