Old time Web site Good Sam seeks, gets helping hand from IDA

---->:·:·:·:~'~"'' ,.,,, .. ,,,_-~_.,..,,,,,.,, By JOSEPH A. PHILLIPS

The Bethlehem Industrial Development Agency (IDA) has taken steps to help Delmar's Good Samaritan Lutheran Home refinance the mortgage of its troubled senior assistive living facility, adjacent to the nursing home at 141 Rockefeller Road.

In an emergency meeting on the morning of Monday, Sept. 10, the IDA board met and unanimously adopted an inducement resolution drawn up by IDA counsel Thomas Connolly that would authorize Good Samaritan to issue tax­exempt revenue bonds of up to $5 million to refinance the nonprofit's 67-bed assistive living facility.

Residents, DOT square off on roundabout By JOSEPH A PHILLIPS

W->»»»»»»»:«-O<----ovo«-~N.'C''

Officials of the state Department of Transportation's Region One Design Group faced an audience of more than 300 at Voorheesville Elementary School auditorium Monday night, to make their case for a roundabout at the intersection of routes 85A and 155.

The roundabout is DOTs preferred option for the southernmost end of an $11 million reconstruction of the 155 corridor as far as Western Avenue in Guilderland that DOT hopes to get under way during the 2002 construction season.

After nearly four and a half hours of making the case for the safety and traffic­calming benefits of the roundabout design, and facing questioning along with a team of his colleagues, Region One chief design engineer Mark Silo, asked if the turnout or tenor of questions at the gathering offered any surprises, replied, "I can't say there really were any."

But after months of building public _opposition to the plan - reflected in hand-stenciled ''Vote No Roundabout" lawn signs that have popped up throughout the village in recent days­the meeting did produce at least one surprise, in the eyes of village Mayor Ed Clark.

"I'm hearing much greater support for this project than I've heard before." he said. "I'm sort of surprised. There's a lot of opposition, of course, but there's a

A handful of speakers throughout the meeting pressed Silo and his colleagues on whether the results of that poll would govern their final design choices in the coming weeks - and he was· noncommittal.

on t):le basis of opinion polls."

In the case of the Voorheesville roundabout, the DOT team stressed; they . see no such close judgment call.

"Every piece of information we have had leads us to believe we are 100 percent confident in our design," said Matt Bromirski,, the opinion polls.

Voorheesville Avenue, and village Trustee William Hotaling, who has spearheaded the ad-hoc opposition group, People Against Roundabouts, since mid-July, predicted a strong turnout.

Jobin-Davis hoped he was right. "I hope we get a lot of people out to vote," she said. "I hope we get a majority of our residents."

Mark Silo new project manager for the 155 reconstruction.

Their case for replacing the current Y-intersection at 155 and 85A with a roundabout, as opposed to a traditional signalized T-intersection, is primarily a safety argument.

'There's one word I wantto emphasize, and that word is 'slow'," said Silo. 'Things work better if you slow them down."

A management shakeup at the facility is in the works, Scott said, and a new marketing plan is being put"in place. Good Samaritan hopes to obtain licensing of its facility as a home health care agency in order to better compete.

With formal bank financing difficult to· secure as a result of their default, IDA · bonds were the only financing instrument available to Good Samaritan to refinance its debt, he said.

The board set a public hearing, set for 8 a.m. on Monday, Oct. 10, to discuss the bond issue, which will also require town board approval before closing on the bond issue.

'We felt it was important to work with them to try to help them keep the facility in operation," said IDA member Joseph Richardson, who presided over the emergency session. Other IDA members present for the vote were Bethlehem comptroller Judith Kehoe, town board member Daniel Plummer and IDA assistant secretary David Petraglia.

'They're strictly coming to the IDA to refinance their unpaid balance with a low interest rate" available through the government-backed bond issue, said Richardson. IDA bonds would also exempt Good Samaritan from certain related taxes, including mortgage­transfer taxes. As a not-for-profit, the facility is already exempt from local property taxes.

State of the art P.lanners hear request for 'unique' set-aside ·~~

By JOSEPH A. PHILLIPS

Exactly what kind of property meets the standards of the town's newly-enacted parkland set-aside law? ·

That was issue before· the Bethlehem planning board at a meeting on Sept. 4. The developer of a major subdivision straddling the Dowerskill proposed donating a 12-acre tract along the creek to the town, for development into a nature trail. Whether that meets the town's intent in legislating that developers donate to the town tracts of land or fees to be used for public parks is unclear.

banked, Hart said, the right of way has sufficient flat area to develop a trail.

But whether a strip of land not large enough for traditional "active" recreational uses of town parks satisfies the law's intent depends, all agreed, on how one interprets the set-aside law.

Janine Saatman of the town planning department said that she believed it was intended to reflect the types of park needs most directly created by increasing residential development.

"My understanding of the town adopting this local law is that they're really gearing it for more active uses," she said -large open areas for ballfields and soccer fields, picnic pavilions or· other family activities.

The subdivision is 95-lot Milltowne Plaza, on 101 acres owned by Massachusetts developer George Haseotes. It straddles the Dowerskill north­west of the intersection of Wem­ple Road and Route 9W, in an area of Glenmont experiencing inten­sive residential development.

But board counsel Keith Silliman said, "With potential to link up two or three developments and create some natural hiking trails along that sort of environment, that's fairly unique. That is fairly significant. It's not Milltowne Plaza, presented at

By JOSEPH A. PHILLIPS

Bethlehem's Zoning Board of Appeals (ZBA) last Wednesday approved a permit clearing the way for a new co-location agreement with an Albany cellular · telephone service provider wishing to install transmitters on the town's Kenwood Avenue water tower.

The board conducted a public hearing on Sept. 5 on Independent Wireless One's request for a special use permit to install a brace of cellular communication transmitters on the tower in Delmar, the third such co-location agreement that would be in force at that location. Their application was then unanimously approved by the board, pending the drafting of the formal resolution by counsel.

LWO earlier this year obtained similar approval . to install transmitters on an existing radio tower in Glenmont, as the firm, a local service provider for Sprint, continues to expand its coverage in the town of Bethlehem.

Mary Beth Slevin, counsel for IWO, told the board that the Kenwood installation would not add significantly to Sprint's existing coverage area in the town but was intended to improve current "intermittent" service, principally in the immediate

· vicinity in Delmar. "It's not increasing the

coverage per se, ifs improving the reliability of existing coverage," she said.

IWO is seeking to identify 1 b alternative co-location sites in the gona etween

Engineer Jacob Warner assured the board that, even combined with the emissions from the current Nextel and Omnipoint transmitters already on the tower, "The levels of power we're putting out from this site are, relatively speaking, very small"- and well within Federal Communications Commission compliance standards.

IWO's application to fill gaps in Sprint's service area in Slingerlands by erecting a 1 0(}­foot monopole transmitter behind Price Chopper Plaza on New Scotland Road is still pending.

The parkland issue wasn't the only one facing the Milltowne proposal. Steven .Hart of Hart Engineering, preparer of the preliminary site plans, addressed others, including the Army Corps of Engineers' signoff on Aug. 31 on wetlands-mitigation issues, after the developer agreed to create an additional 0.68 acres of new wetlands.

The developer also agreed with the state Historic Preserva­tion Office to continue archaeo­logical research on a potentially sensitive site. And Hart said Haseotes recently concluded a purchase agreement with an ad­jacent property owner to acquire a halt-acre parcel, removing a po­tential impediment to the princi­pal road through the develop­ment.

That road is envisioned by town planners as a future two-lane east-west connector road between Elm Avenue and Route 9W, designed to carry traffic through the heavy residential develop­ment. The board discussed the possibility of requiring a sidewalk along the connector road to accommodate residential pedes­trians and bicyclists.

.Responding to concerns raised at December's hearing and by the Army Corps; Hart said the developer will offer to deed to the town a right-of-way along the Dowerskill. 200 feet wide on the west bank and 50 feet wide on the east, and asked that it be considered in satisfaction of the set-aside law.

"Personally, .I think if this

could be connected to those other trail areas, and if these other trail areas are in fact accessible to citizens other than those who live in that particular development, then this is at least as valuable to me as a soccer field," said board member Joseph Rooks.

Parker Mathusa said he was "very strongly in favor" of accep­ting the set-aside, questioning the meaning of "active use."

"Speaking .on behalf of the seven or eight thousand senior citizens in this town, a 3(}- or 40-minute walk is a very active piece of living," he said. "It's as active as running up and down soccer fields. I think we should find a way of making this work, and I'm prepared to push very, very hard to make sure it does happen."

Several board members questioned whether such a use of public land dovetails with the long-range goals of the parks department.

"Just like we ask the engineer­ing department to advise us about sewers and roads in the course of a subdivision application, it's ap­propriate to ask the parks depart­ment to take a look at this and see if it fits in what what their plans. are," said member Dan Odell.

Hart. pressed the board for a quick determination, hoping that consideration of the set-aside wouldn't delay a negative environ­mental-impact determination he hopes to obtain from the board.

But with town planner Jeff lipnicky, the architect of the set­aside law, absent from the meeting, Chairman Doug Has­brouck expressed reluctance to make any recommendations to the town board or parks depart­ment.

"Certainly we need to get them involved in this conversation," he said.

A lot to offer Patients' dignity is-heart of hospice

Hospice is a treasure in all the communities Spotlight Newspapers serve. This week's Point of View by Philip Di Sorbo shows that hospice has more to offer than most people might be aware of.

Di Sorbo explains that hospice is not'just avail-

able for those who are Edt'tort'als very near death and that its primary focus is help-ing patients maintain their dignity by providing palliative care - care that attempts to make each patient as comfortable as pos-sible. ·

This allows the patient the ability to participate in end­of-life decisions and affords the patient the opportunity to say good byes to friends and loved ones. The word oppor­tunity is key; the patient is still making decisions in his or her life.

. Many people, however, die wretched and in agony, and unable to communicate .their wishes or unable to play any role in what is happening to them. This is what hospice tries to avoid.

We salute hospice· in its attempt to preserve human dignity up to the end.

News to us Well, it seems radio personality Dan Lynch has taken it

upon himself to pigeonhole Spotlight Newspapers as a group of Republican controlled weeklies under the hands of Stewart Hancock and Doug Barclay. Gee, thanks Dan.

As the executive editor, I guess I've been one of the uninformed for the last three plus years since the Eagle group bought the papers. I've yet to meet Doug, although I certainly would love to no matter what his political persuasion.

And as for Stew:you've probably spent more time with him lately than I have- remember he was on your show one afternoon. I didn't catch it. I was working.

If we are what you say we are, that's real bad news for Republicans. In the Spotlight's 50 year plus history, we've never made political endorsements, unlike your old paper . one year when it made an exception in a town board race to endorse Doris Davis' (R-Bethlehem) opponent.

And just for the record, if the Spotlight is so GOP dominated, why did you do a freelance piece for one of our publications over the summer?

An_j!.-also for the record, all eight Spotlight weekly neWspapers try to cover local news from all angles; from all sides. That's what we are, that's what we do.

The writer is executive director of The Community Hospice, a member of St. Peter's Health Care Services. The Community Hospice has seven locations in the Capital District.

A patient, I'll call Jim, was told some months ago that he had inoperable cancer, an aggressive tumor spreading rapidly throughout his body.

Although there was no cure in sight, chemotherapy and radiation might slow the tumor growth or even induce a remission. But nothing worked. As Jim just got sicker and sicker, more and more chemotherapy and radiation were offered. Finally, he died in the hospital, too sick to accept the doctor's last offer of chemotherapy. With only one day to live, Jim was referred to hospice care. His end-of-life phase was less than 24 hours.

. Unfortunately, this is not a terribly rare experience·. Although hospice care is designed to be a six-month program, some-10 percent of those referred come so late in their illness that they die within 24 hours. In the recent experience of The Community Hospice, the median length of stay for a hospice patient is about 13 days.

Two major reports in recent months, one by the Cancer Advisory Board of the Institute of Medicine and one by Dr. Nicholas Christakis in the Annals of Internal Medicine, identify serious gaps in end-of-life care in this country. They call for more attention to palliative care: comfort care that relieves suffering and responds to the full person. Making hospice~type palliative care available earlier in the disease process is long overdue.

Palliative care is not new, although it is finding greater emphasis, especially in hospice settings. Any patient with a serious illness needs medical comfort. This does not mean that therapeutic measures are stopped; it does mean that major attention is given to the relief of pain.

Point of View

But when a patient enters hospice, the prognosis is that a cure is not a likely possibility; now the most important thing is to make the patient comfortable. The effort is to free a patient from incapacitating symptoms, such as shortness of breath or overwhelming pain.

Because the American way of dying has become high-tech business, Jim's case is not uncommon. Modern medicine does indeed work "miracles:" Yet the best of medicine cannot ward

supportive care program for the end-of-life phase. A patient enters hospice care when the patient's physician estimates a six-month life expectancy. If, at the end of that period, the physician determines the patient still has six months or less to live, hospice care is extended.

Entering hospice with appropriate timing seems to be a major issue in this country. Unfortunately, many patients and professionals see entering hospice care as tantamount to "giving up" or "actively dying." . Physicians do not want to give up, and they encourage their patients to keep up hope. Understandable as this attitude is,

There often comes a point in a serious illness when attempts at curing the incurable can become hurtful instead of healing. Sometimes palliative care must resort to treating symptoms that are themselves created by medical processes.

it has its limits. Hospice care is, first of all, honest. It recognizes that the end is in sight. It stresses the quality of life so that what is left is Good (with a capital G).

As long as life remains, all medical and spiritual resources should be mustered to assure that what remains for the

off death forever. There often comes a point in a serious illness when attempts at curing the incurable can become hurtful instead of healing. Sometimes palliative care must resort to treating symptoms that are themselves created by medical processes. It. would seem that in such a circumstance a reordering of priorities is called for.

Relieving suffering makes it possible to make the dying person's end-of-life phase a quality time. Most important, comfort care helps preserve the person's dignity, enabling decisions to be made and some degree of control over the remainder of life to be exercised.

In the remaining weeks or days, there is still healing to be done. There is time for talking and sharing memories and happy expe'riences with family and friends, for saying "thank you" and "good bye." There are occasions for reflecting about life and pondering its meaning and discovering peace. If the patient is of a religious nature, there will be opportunities to pro be the issues of faith and claim the resources of the patient's particular tradition.

patients is life to be lived to the fullest.

Hope is not abandoned, but transformed. Each person chooses their own goals for hope. Realistic hopes replace false hopes.

The Institute of Medicine makes a compelling case for ending the ar·tificial barrier between "active treatment" and "palliative treatments." Eligibility for hospice might be based on the severity of the patient's illness and not just life expectancy. This approach would blend treat­ments, so that as one type becomes less effective, the other would be gradually phased in to provide a steady continuum of care.

The caregivers would always make sure that suffering was adequately addressed, particularly pain management. Palliative care would provide a smooth entrance into the hospice program for the patient.

Wben a newborn enters this world, there is an unspoken birthright that the child should be welcomed into a climate of love and understanding, comforted and nurtured within a positive environment. Those people preparing to leave life deserve no less.

without extreme discomfort, the ·patient will be deprived of many end-of-life possibilities. Furthermore, if the patient has collapsed from futile treatments and is in hospice care for only a few days, the situation tends to take on the nature of a crisis, and palliative care is much more difficult.

Hospice is a health and

Jim's death dramatically reveals a system that needs to be overhauled and humanized. Perhaps his legacy is an awakening that things can and should be different for those who follow.

Editor, The Spotlight: I think the residents of

Slingerlands would be very interested in some of the points raised about the Tall Timbers project on Hilton Road at a recent meeting of the ' New Scotland planning board.

First, the developer plans to build a sewage treatment plant for the project on or near Font Grove Road. Many who attended the meeting expressed concern about the plant and the aquifer the serves the houses along Font Grove and Krumkill roads.

Second, the developer appar­ently has approached the other farms on Krumkill Road. to sell their land for future development This means that we are no longer talking about 170 houses - with at least two cars per house.

We are 1\0W talking about hundreds of houses, and the impact those cars will have on routes 85A and 85, as well as Krumkill, Hilton and Johnston roads.

I fear that these roads will on day be highways. I've seen what DOT has done in East Greenbush to routes 4 and 43. It took rural neighborhood roads and turned them into efficient and wide highways. This could be our future as well.

We see the supercilious attitude that DOT has regarding the roundabout it plans to build

at the junction of 85A and 155. Whatever DOT wants, DOT gets, despite the will of the community.

If the development(s) accom­modate hundreds more cars and vans, surely DOT will want to widen and straighten the roads one day.

I am disappointed that The Spotlight's article about the Hilton Road development did not contain more detail.

This episode convinces me that we need a regional approach to development in this area. Surely what happens in the town of New Scotland and Voorhees­ville also influences the quality of life in Slingerlands.

THE SPOTLIGHT

Crosswalk safety campaign begins in Bethlehem today

Pedestrians are twice as likely to be killed by a stranger with a car than by a stranger with a gun, and that is why Bethlehem is undertaking a crosswalk safety campaign.

Bethlehem Walks! promotes Bethlehem as an active community where drivers respect engineering. Education and enforcement

State law mandates drivers to "yield to pedestrians in your half of the road." Bethlehem police will be particularly watchful at crosswalks and will be enforcing this law. ·

A public education campaign will focus on pedestrian awareness, driver responsibilities and will foster a spirit of cooperation on crosswalk etiquette.

Engineering Stanchions will be placed in the

middle of the road at selected, non-intersection crosswalks without signals - reminding drivers to yield to pedestrians.

"We have all the elements in place to serve as a model for the rest of the state. " said Fran Stevens of the Bethlehem Citizens for Pedestrian Safety.

"Because we are all pedestrians at one time or another this campaign will benefit everyone."

The following tips for drivers and for pedestrians should help save lives as walkers use town crosswalks:

Crosswalk safety tips Use a marked crosswalk when

one is available. Stop at the curb or edge of

road. Look left-right-left to check

before crossing. Be more careful where "Right­

on-Red" is allowed. Never assume that if you can

Iliotibial band syndrome involves inflam­mation of the tendon that runs along the out­side of the thigh (from the hip to the knee) as it rubs against the rounded end of the thighbone (femur). This problem may be due to weakness in the outer buttock muscles, which can be helped with exercises. For the side-lying leg lift, lie on your side and ex­tend your upper leg, with your knee turned slightly upward. Lift your leg 30 degrees off the floor, hold for one second, then lower it. Next, perform a pelvic drop by standing on a step and lowering your stronger leg off the St€p and shifting weight onto the \;Veaker leg. Then, return to the starting position.

Havihg the assistance and support of an experienced physical therapist to help you· achieve optimum performance is a- crucial factor in the recovery process. If you are experiencing pain, stiffness, or reduced func­tion, ask your physician for referral for physi-

cal therapy. At our practice, our experienced, supportive staff of licensed physical thera­pists utilize the latest treatment methods, including therapeutic massage and ultra­sound to ensure speedy recovery. For your convenience, we offer day and evening treat­ment hours and free parking.

The design's geometry, he said, with its tight turning radius, single traffic lane and three entrances governed by yield signs, will force traffic to slow to below 25 miles per hour from the 45 that their studies show is more typical of the current configuration.

With more than 300 roundabouts in use nationally from Florida to Colorado to Vermont, he said, studies by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety show a 39 percent reduction in overall crashes at roundabouts - and a nearly 90 percent drop in fatal or incapacitating crashes. Silo cited

design features, like a median island at each entrance, that offer safety benefits for pedestrians as well.

"The reason we're investigating roundabouts at all is because of the remarkable. accident reduction statistics," Silo said. "That's what got my attention."

The 85A-155 intersection, Bromirski said, currently has nearly double the expected accident rate for an urban Y intersection - and with anticipated residential growth nearby from such proposed projects as Tall Timbers Estates, it's likely to continue to rise. Many speakers questioned whether the

. actual numbers of accidents there

call for such a new design, but DOT's Bob Meyer said, "Excuse us for trying to fix it before it's broken ... this Y configuration just will not work in the future."

Several speakers, including some from nearby Scotch Pine Drive, agreed and endorsed the new desigo.

"At some point in our lives every one of us has had a close call (for a traffic accident),. at every point in theY," said Tanya Hensel. "I'd accept almost anything to be done with that."

The core of the opposition argument is human nature trumping statistics. "People around here don't yield at yield sigos," said Hotaling. Opponents fear accelerated traffic on 85A as a result.

Many speakers, on both sides of the roundabout question, thought the real traffic problem

on 85A was not the Y but congestion at the entrance to SuperValu Plaza a few hundred yards away - what Clark called "the most significant traffic problem we have in Voorheesville right now. I would respectfully ask that you give it whatever attention you cart."

SuperValu owner Jim Nichols drew applause when he said, "You put a lot of time into this, but you really haven't addressed the situation down the road .... let's fix it now and make it all flow." The DOT team agreed that the approaches to the plaza deserved a hard look as they complete their design.

Moreover, they repeatedly noted, the roundabout design is not cast in stone either. "We see the roundabout as a better overall solution/' said Bromirski, "though we're not saying a signalized intersection couldn't move traffic through there."

But a traffic light could add, he estimated, about $100,000 to the cost of the 155 project. Silo suggested that a major change in the current design including the roundabout could result in the intersection being left out of the 155 road project entirely rather than delaying it.

THE SPOTLIGHT

Hotaling, for one, thought DOT minds were made up.

"I think all of this is just fanfare," he said. "I still think it's DOT coming into the sleepy little village ofVoorheesville and trying to slide it through. I think it's a done deal. We really need a traffic light there."

His board colleague - and declared roundabout opponent­Richard Berger said he thought "I hear more against than for it" in the crowd, but added, "Hopefully from the poll there'll be a more accurate count than hearsay." He and Clark both suggested the trustees would move quickly to tabulate the poll's results and take a position.

Hotaling said he would be content with its outcome either I

everybody had enough I

knowledge and .they wanted the ' roundabout, so be it."

And Clark found the strong turnout an encouraging sigo.

"I'm proud of this community," he said. "They came out. They didn't just let it happen to them. Both sides took the time to get]' themselves better informed. I , think that bodes well."

Board sends car lot variance request back to drawing board =~'"'~'~""

By JOSEPH A. PHILLIPS """'"'"'~'*--"*"'·'""''"-.,"'""""""

The owners of a residential lot in a commercial district along Route 9W in Glenmont went before the Bethlehem Zoning Board of Appeals last week, asking for a variance to permit them to open a small used car lot.

But the application by Chris­tine and Robert Saleh and their nephew William Saleh, the owner of 577 Route 9W, faced a host of questions at the Sept. 5 hearing - and the board adjourned the hearing until Oct. 3.

Christine Saleh said her hus­band Robert plans to operate the residence at 577 9W as a sales office supporting an ontdoor used car lot for about 10 to 15 cars. Christine would be one of three employees. Records submitted with the application show a tentative sales agreement trans­ferring the property from William to Christine Saleh.

Board Chairman Michael Hodom asked Christine Saleh to supply a detailed site plan dia­gram at the~hearing next month.

She assured the board that the lot would be used for sales only.

A neighbor, Thelma Elwell, supported their application, rioting other nearby business, including an auto dealership and

have a business." Several neighbors raised

questions about the potential for hazardous materials to seep into a nearby wetland area. And various ZBA members urged the applicants to obtain a traffic study for the proposed location.

Security was a concern for at least one neighbor, Brian Wood.

''What are we doing to address somebody breaking into the cars, with so much traffic (along the road)? I have two children, and the house is 20 feet away," he said.

Saleh was also peppered with questions about the applicants' prior business history, and the current state of their licensing as dealers by the Department of Motor Vehicles.

In order to open a used car lot, they would first have to obtain a shop license from DMVfollowing an inspection of the site.

Board member Richard Lewis asked why she no longer held a dealer's license. "I really don't think I have to disclose that," she said and when asked by Hodom, if she, her nephew or her husband ever operated a business in the town, she denied it.

But under further questioning, she said she had surrendered her own dealer's license nearly a year ago - under the terms of a plea bargain agreement with the state Attorney General's office. Court records show William Saleh to be the owner of Merit Auto Sales, a Glenmont used car dealership targeted in that case as well.

Both William and Christine Saleh were arrested in August of last year and pleaded guilty to misdemeanor charges of schem­ing to defraud, in connection with a used-car sales operation spearheaded by a Delmar couple,

Timothy and Kimberly Shaffer, relatives of the Salehs ..

The investigation concluded that the Shaffers had sold nearly 400 used .cars, misrepresenting the vehicles' age and previous ownership, falsifying paperwork and rolling back odometers. Christine and William Saleh, investigators said, had helped the Shaffers obtain many of the vehicles, with Merit Auto and Shaker Auto.

Both William and Christine Saleh received probation and were ordered to pay restitution and surrender their dealership licenses, according to Assistant Attorney General Nancy Snyder.

"One of the conditions of (William Saleh's) probation is to refrain from any employment related to auto sales," Snyder said -but he was sentenced to jail for violating other terms of his probation. He began a work­release from his jail sentence last month, according to Sgt. Mike Moffrey of the Albany County jail.

Christine Saleh's plea agreement included no restric­tions from employment in auto sales, Snyder said. But according to Henry Ashline, regional director of auto facility inspec­tions for DMY, she is likely to face rejection if she applies for a dealer's license in the future.

Fourteen goals in two games.

Despite the production, head coach Brett Miller isn't envisioning a lot of high-scoring games.

With the early success they've had so far, Miller knows his Eagles will be hunted by every Suburban Council team in 2001. But he believes they are ready for another run at the Section II title.

Both Voorheesville and Rave­na-Coeymans-Selkirk had suc­cessful kickoffs to their 2001 football seasons last Friday. ·

Voorheesville began its first year in the Northern Adirondack League with a 33-13 victory at Hoosick Falls, while RCS throttled Cohoes 61-7 in its home opener.

Voorheesville's defense held Hoosick Falls to 108 total yards, nearly half of what running back Tim Hauser was able to gain on the Panthers. Hauser carried the ball23 times for 202 yards and two touchdowns.

RCS was strong on both sides of the ball in its game against Cohoes. C.J. Berghela regis­tered 148 yards of total offense,

We'll certainly work with the "Largely because ofthe merits

of the project, so far most of the comment we've received in public meetings on the project has been favorable," said Brown.

PSEG is still in discussions of the project with several environmental organizations that filed for formal "intervenor" status in the project, including Hudson Riverkeepers and Scenic Hudson, but Brown said he did not expect formal opposition from those organizations.

'They have expressed some concern about the impact on the river by our coolant water," he said. "But we've tried to make the case that the new plant will reduce those impacts in the range of 98-99 percent in terms of the use of river water" over the existing facility.

Copies of the Article X application are on file with the PSC, at Bethlehem Public Library, and at public libraries in Troy and East Greenbush. Public comment can be directed to the PSC at Three Empire State Plaza, Albany 12223.

Following the public hearing, the siting board has up to a year to issue its findings on the Article X application. But Brown hopes that review will be expedited under the terms of "fast-track" legislation passed by the state Legislature in the recent session and signed into law last week by Gov. George Pataki.

That legislation provides for a 6-month decision. window for

energy generation projects involving new technology that greatly reduces the environmental impacts of existing plants.

"We're . looking at the possibility of BEC qualifying under that legislation," Brown said, though the exact process for determining what projects qualify is as yet unclear. The energy center would be the first project seeking fast-track status, he said, and "Frankly, if this doesn't qualify, I don't think anything does."

"We would be prepared to begin work on the project just as soon as we get certification from the siting board," he said. "It's still possible for a late 2003- early '04 in-service (date)."
