M&T Bank will be moving from its current location at 3 Washington Street to 49 Washington -- the site of the old Kwik Fill, which is across
Mill from the new Kwik Fill. The project is in initial planning stages with the Village Planning Board. A special use permit is required and the site plan and architectural reviews
are in early stages. During the Village Planning Board on Tuesday, Aug. 9, the board and M&T’s architects were focused on traffic flow through the property and around a drive-up ATM kiosk, as well as parking. The board agreed that one of the four solutions presented would provide safe and adequate access, turning radius and parking spaces. Village Planner Gary Palumbo advised the board that plans are complete enough to set a public hearing on the special use permit. That See Village Planning page 13

Ellicottville business owner John Rounds asked the Village Board at its Monday, Aug. 8 meeting to consider making Hughey Alley a two-way street again. Village of Ellicottville Mayor John Burrell explained that changing the direction of the alley would require
repealing the 2014 law that made it one way. Board members who were involved in enacting the 2014 law explained that its purpose was to make the intersection of the Alley at Monroe Street safer for pedestrians. They explained that trucks and cars traveling through the alley to See Village Board page 15

The Band also played a show at the park in the mid-1990s. And “The Canadian Invasion” in 1994 featured an impressive collection of Canadian bands, including Lowest of the Low, 54-40 and Blue Rodeo.

Take a break from the kitchen and head to the Taste of Ellicottville, returning to the village Aug. 13 and 14. This weekend is all about treating your taste buds to the best Ellicottville has to offer. “Taste of Ellicottville is a constantly evolving event,” noted Chris Chapman, marketing and communications manager for the Ellicottville Chamber of Commerce, whichh presents the event. “We are fortunate to have new restaurants in the area joining the Taste every couple years. This year, we are excited to have three restaurants participating for the first time.” Those welcome new additions are Monroe Street Brick & Brew, Seneca Allegany Resort & Casino and Villaggio. How it works: restaurants set up “cafe style” on the streets. You purchase tickets for $1 each at a centrally-located tent, then take your tickets and exchange them for a variety of tasty fare. Items are between one and four tickets. It’s that easy! If you’re wondering what kinds of items there are, it’s just about anything you might be craving. Interested in starters? You bet! Blue mushroom soup, wings, fresh-made potato chips, tacos-in-a-bag, loaded tots and more are all up for grabs. Looking for something that sticks to your ribs? Of course! Sliders, meatballs, pizza of all kinds and seafood are available, just to name a few. Want to try something on the lighter side? Enjoy all

ECS Expects Enrollment Increase
By Jann Wiswall
Ellicottville Central School could see an enrollment increase of 40-50 students if this month’s trend continues, Superintendent Mark Ward told the board of education at its meeting on Tuesday, Aug. 9. “We can’t be precise at this stage,” he explained, “but there’s growth both from within
and outside the District.” At this point, he said, “we’re expecting 69 students in the 8th grade and 65 in 5th. Those are large classes for ECS.” Ward reported that preparations for the new school year are coming along well. The new busses are in, building repairs, improvements and maintenance are ongoing and
all of the new classroom smart boards have been installed. And, once state grant money comes in, he said, the school’s new security system can be purchased and installed. Ward also reported that preliminary results from the spring’s grades 3-8 testing in See ECS Board page 4

Letter to the Editor Bittersweet Times
A heart-felt thank you to all the locals, semi-locals, tourist friends, family, the business community and employees for 35-plus years of patronage, support, friendship and loyalty that contributed to the success of Tips Up, Ellicottville is such a unique community. I have raised my children here and have had the pleasure of working with both of my children. I have had great employees. All the wonderful memories over the years will always be prominent in my mind and I will always consider Ellicottville my home. Sincerely, Judy Roush Owner, Tips Up
Tips Up Cafe grand opening in spring 1980. The restaurant served its last meal on Saturday, August 6, 2016.
Tuscan Moon to Feature Guest Host Brian Dunkleman Tuscan Moon – A Tribute to Michael Kerns just got a lot funnier. Sponsored by the Rotary Club of Ellicottville this “must attendâ€? dinner party in Ellicottville has just added a lot of laughs as Ellicottville’s own Brian Dunkleman will host and provide some fun to the live auction. Dunkleman began doing stand up comedy in 1992, winning the title of “Buffalo’s Funniest New Comedianâ€? and has since then performed in many of the nations best venues including The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. Dunkleman is sure to add a special local touch to this great event. The party starts with great hors d’ oeuvres from Katy’s CafĂŠ & Katy’s Fly-In, The Gin Mill, Monroe Street Brick & Brew and Villaggio served by volunteer students from ECS. Serenading the crowd throughout the evening is the popular Michael Nugent. Supported by both Sysco and US Foods, local chefs from 16 different restaurants will serve
up a signature dish served at their individual stations. Eat as much as you want from the selection of Italian favorites. The menu is almost complete so look for it in the next few weeks as the ďŹ nal touches are added. An extensive silent auction and Brian’s live auction provide some great bargains for all who attend. Beyond the food and the company, this annual fundraiser supports the many
local projects and individuals in need of support, through Rotary’s Family Support for Ellicottville. Tuscan Moon will be held on Saturday, Aug. 27 at 6 p.m. and John Harvard’s Cabana Bar and Pool Complex at Holiday Valley. Tickets are $65, available in many local outlets (Chamber, EVL Spirits, The Gin Mill & Katy’s) or you can order by phone (credit cards accepted) by calling Kegs at 699-8758.

outdoor live music by featuring musical performances by some of the region’s best musicians, including headliner Funktional Flow, Sly Boots School of Music, Sonder and Kaleidoscope Sky. The younger set can take part in children crafts and activities, “This year we will have a great children’s activity table which will include creating painted button trees and stick beaded wind chimes,â€? explained Nila GrifďŹ s, executive director of the Ashford Hollow Foundation, which runs the park. Guests will also enjoy tours of the park, artists creating works and much more. Park goers can also take in the 250 sculptures that reside throughout the trails of the park, making it the largest outdoor sculpture park In the United States. The events will take place on the top of the hill at the Mill Valley side of the park. (What this means: guests must be able to endure a 10 minute walk uphill to the festival site.) “People will be able to bring chairs and coolers and we will have BBQ available with both meat and vegetarian options,â€? said GrifďŹ s. In addition to the food booth,
there will be a beer and wine garden on-site. Admission is $10 for adults, free for children 12 and under. Gates open at noon. For more info, visit www.grifďŹ spark.org. Need another excuse to visit the park? Check out the aweinspiring Night Lights at the Park, Sept. 14 to Oct. 9. “This will be our 4th annual Night Lights and we are deďŹ nitely going to be launching some very exciting things this year,â€? said GrifďŹ s. For the fourth year in a row, the Night Lights crew will come to the sculpture park and transform a part of the park with creative lighting. Colorful LED lights interact with the sculptures and landscapes to create a fun and surreal
atmosphere. After paying admission, guests will walk unguided through a portion of the sculpture park. (It’s helpful if you bring a small ashlight.) There are plenty of new lighting displays planned, which will be revealed soon. Mark your calendars for one of these dates: Wednesdays through Saturdays from Sept. 14 to Oct. 8, or Sunday, Oct. 9; 7:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. Wednesdays and Thursdays, 7:30 to 10:00 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays.

year, from $8.55/thousand in property value to $8.46/ thousand. This represents a .99% decrease. Following Ward’s report, the board approved a long list of recommendations, including approval of Board and District Committee members; approval of the 2017 senior class trip to Washington, DC and Virginia and Baltimore; appointment of the School Safety team; and approval of certain text books. The board also took a number of personnel actions,
doing it just to be more hipster and trendy. Research suggests that going gluten-free can reduce fatness, inflammation, and insulin resistance. Food intolerances tend to raise stress hormones, such as cortisol, trigger inflammation, and overactivate the immune system. 6. Interval Training Many of my clients are long distance runners. They are of the mindset that frequent long distance running was the best way to burn fat. Running actually raises cortisol levels to almost three times the normal amount. Burst training or interval training is highly recommended by many athletic trainers as the most effective way to lose weight and burn fat. Try exercising at high intensity for 30-75 second bursts, separated by 2-3 minutes of recovery time. 7. Protein Be aware of how much protein you are consuming, and make sure it is antiinflammatory. Try not to supplement healthy proteins with carbs. Over-eating carbs is one of the main contributors to weight gain in today’s society. Try drinking more cold water, and eating more dark, leafy greens, organic chicken, grass fed beef, wild caught seafood and wild meats like venison and buffalo. 8. Limit Fructose Fructose is a harmful sugar. To be more specific it hurts your metabolic system. It goes straight to your liver, makes fat, and triggers insulin and leptin resistance. Fructose doesn’t tell your brain you are satisfied, so you still feel hungry and keep eating. The result is inflammation, a stressed out liver, and more visceral fat. The Department of Agriculture estimates that Americans consumed an average of about 27 pounds of high-fructose corn syrup in 2014. So, what do you have to lose? Hopefully, that annoying belly fat. What do you have to gain? An overall healthier and happier body.

While I enjoy training a variety of people with various fitness goals, one issue stands out between both my female and male clients— how to reduce and/or get rid of belly fat. To be clear, these clients are not “fat”; however, they do tend to store their extra weight around their middle. So, what gives? How can you be seemingly fit, but still struggle with belly fat? Dr. Sara Gottfried, Harvardtrained MD, and one of the leading experts on hormones, says, “When you gain weight particularly at the waist, your body’s biochemistry plummets downward. You create more inflammation and oxidative stress and promote even more fat storage. The result is a vicious cycle of hormonal misfires, symptoms, and disease that will drag you down unless you flip the switch.” First let us differentiate between the two types of fat you will find around your belly: subcutaneous and visceral. I know, I know— that’s a mouth full. Let’s break it down a little bit. Subcutaneous is external. It’s the typical type of fat that you can grab with your hands or pinch between your fingers. Visceral fat is internal and you can find it stored around the inside of some of your organs like your liver, kidneys, intestines, and pancreas. Bodily Amount: Measuring the amount of fat you have in your body
will make you feel one of the following three things: surprise, delight, or disgust. Doctors suggest that our bodies are designed to store belly fat in response to eating sugar, which allowed the body to survive the winter… back in the day. But in times of abundant food, this ancient make-up of fat stores misfires and stores fat despite the lack of famine. The key is to reverse the hormonal misfires, and eliminate cravings and resting fat. Research shows the following will help you reduce or rid your body of belly-fat. 1. Lay Off the Alcohol I know it’s sad, but in reality liquid calories from beer, wine, mixed-drinks and basically any alcohol contribute to belly fat percentages. 2. Cortisol Levels I while back, I experienced an extremely stressful time in my life. I developed a “life preserver” around my waist. I soon discovered my cortisol levels where way out of whack. I immediately looked for a miracle pill and discovered, there was no such thing. An increase in stress means an increase in your cortisol levels. If you’re stressed, your cortisol levels will break down muscle and store fat. What works best is a daily practice of 30 minutes to reset stress levels in the body. Try listening to a guided meditation, a hike in nature, getting a massage or walking your dog around the block. Figure out what works for you and do it as often as you can! 3. Get Your Beauty Sleep Your body needs 7-8.5 hours of uninterrupted sleep to burn visceral fat. Sleep keeps cortisol levels and insulin levels in check. It couldn’t be easier to burn fat! Get yourself tucked under those covers. 4. Remove Gluten and Dairy You probably already know someone who follows a glutenfree or dairy-free diet. Well, it’s not just a fad. And they’re not

kinds of fresh salads, ranging from sriracha lime corn salad to watermelon mint and feta salad. And what’s a meal without some dessert options? Choose from several sweets in the form of chocolates, brownies, cookies, cobblers and more. The Taste also brings out the friendly competitive spirit of all who participate. “There will be a panel of judges that will decide the best in a few categories” Chapman explained. “Those would be Best of Ellicottville (best overall dish), Best Entrée, Best Dessert, and Best Drink. The judges will walk around on Saturday, making their decision after trying the various dishes. We will also have People’s Choice awards in the same categories.” This fun and food-filled weekend is sponsored by Sysco. “Sysco is the primary supplier for the restaurants in the area,” said Chapman. “They are a great partner in what we do in Ellicottville, not
just for Taste of Ellicottville but in a year-round sense. They believe in what we do and that is why they support the Taste of Ellicottville as presenting sponsor.” While the official event may conclude each day at 4 p.m., Chapman noted that “it’s important to remember that the day doesn’t end at 4 p.m. That’s when musical entertainment takes over the village.” Head to all the EVL hot spots—Gin Mill, Balloons, Madigan’s, Silver Fox and Villaggio—for your choice of
amazing live music. The Taste of Ellicottville is your chance to sample the best of the best in a casual, outdoor setting. Bring the family and your appetite and enjoy a perfect August weekend in Ellicottville! For more info, visit www. ellicottvilleny.com.

For the majority of my life I’ve been ruled by my ego. Not only did I have the distinction of being voted biggest ego my senior year of high school, I’m the only one who got a vote. Clean sweep. Anyone with an overly inflated ego is almost always overcompensating for something. In my case it was masking the deep insecurity I developed after my father passed away when I was 11. My ego took such an extraordinary blow, it’s as if it was shattered into a million pieces and then reassembled itself into a ferocious mile-high tower around me. The ego protects us. Unfortunately, it’s also the root of pretty much everything that’s bad: anger, depression, jealousy, resentment. I’ve always had a pretty bad temper. One summer I broke my sand wedge three times. I had a neighbor threaten to call the police due to my uncontrollable screaming every Sunday. My fantasy football team really sucked that season. Over the years I’ve come extremely close to having several altercations on airplanes. In my defense, everyone just needs to realize that you never, ever touch the seat in front of you, and when deplaning, you don’t try and leave before someone in a row in front of you. Everyone knows that. A large percentage of phone calls I’ve had with customer service representatives have ended with four-letter words and suggestions of where they could go. A few times after one of my comedy shows, I’ve had audience members waiting for
me outside, and they weren’t looking for an autograph. Not everyone enjoyed my Sarah Palin material. A dozen or so years ago, I went through a particularly dark period. There are a couple of places in Los Angeles where I can’t go anymore. One is a gas station I went into after an entire night of extensive partying. I needed to get my head straight before I went to an audition, so I grabbed three Starbucks Double Shots and a cup full of ice. When I got to the bulletproof protective glass to pay for my beverages, the guy leaned down toward the opening where you hand over your money and informed me that he would have to charge me for the cup. I said, “Ok, what is it like 15 or 20 cents?” He replied no, he’d have to charge me $1.75, the cost of a fountain drink. After a minute or two of heated debate as to the questionable morality of trying to charge me for a paper cup even though I was buying ten dollars worth of caffeine, I quickly jammed the cup downward into the opening, spraying the ice all over him. I then briskly made my way to my car, sans beverages. Almost two years ago something came into my life that changed everything. I attended an AA meeting to support someone close to me, and for the last 20 minutes they turned off the lights and everyone meditated. I had toyed with the idea of meditating, had even done a little research online, but ultimately always found an excuse not to actually try it. When I walked out of that darkened room after 20 minutes of simply concentrating on my breathing with my eyes closed, I felt high. Like, difficult to walk high. It was obvious that there was something to this. I began meditating twice a day for 20 minutes. I slowly noticed that little things that used to drive me nuts didn’t seem to bother me anymore. I wasn’t getting upset when I was sitting in traffic; I’d just take advantage of that time to listen to one of my favorite

podcasts or call a friend. If there was a long line at the bank, I wouldn’t get angry. I’d just smile at the person next to me and engage in a little small talk. When one of my fantasy football players would drop a touchdown pass, I would laugh instead of throwing the remote across the room. After about 3 or 4 months, something happened to my vision. I don’t know any other way to explain it other than I see tiny little dots everywhere, and they are constantly moving in a swirling pattern. I looked it up, and it’s called “visual snow,” and it happens to people after encountering a “Kundalini Awakening,” which is what started that night at that meeting. Almost two years later, my life has not exactly gone according to plan. In fact, it’s been downright awful. But I honestly don’t think I’ve ever been this happy. I know becoming a father has a lot to do with it, but I was getting pissed off and depressed all the time during the first year of his life. I truly believe that sitting with my eyes closed and simply breathing is the reason I feel so different. The dark cloud that has been hovering over me for over 30 years is gone. Of course I still get upset and angry. I’m still a human being. But I now can recognize it as soon as it begins to happen, and almost always process it quickly. That ferocious ego has finally started to be tamed. Not only have I not thrown a golf club in awhile, my handicap has dropped around five strokes. Phone calls with customer service reps now end with us telling each other to have a great weekend. Except last week with United. That one didn’t go so well. Having your baggage lost after two delayed flights while traveling across country with a three-year-old would test a Tibetan monk’s resolve. They say if you don’t have time to sit and meditate for 20 minutes a day, then you need to meditate for an hour. What do you have to lose? Only the things that you don’t want.

Discover a Synergy of Flavors By Jennie Acklin
What could be better than an invite to sample a “Summer Food and Wine Pairing” at Cadillac Jack’s, with the promise of four deliciously prepared entrees, each paired with the “perfect” wine from E-Ville Spirits? Tina Zerbian, owner of the restaurant, asked that I share my experience with our readers. I protested that I was not a food critic and really don’t know much about wine, but I would try to give a casual review of the evening. Cadillac Jack’s and E’Ville Spirits have been hosting food and wine pairings for several months, and I was fortunate to attend their most recent July gathering hosted by Zerbian. The wines and menus were selected by Jason Edwards, CJ’s sommelier, and Shannon Carscallen, owner of E-Ville Spirits. Edwards joined the staff in October 2015 after returning to his family home in Bradford, PA. He had worked his way up through many restaurant kitchens from Los Angeles to Las Vegas to NYC, including Picholine and Rouge Tomate NYC. When asked about where his creative inspiration comes from, he answers, “Many of the chefs I have trained under have great stories to tell about food. And the food becomes an outlet for artistic expression.” He goes on to explain, “You cannot really put the experience of great food into words – it’s all about experiencing the flavors and sharing the creative vision.” The one word that has remained with him came from Master Chef Terrance
Brennan, when talking about the small details of creating memorable food. The word is “integrity.” Edwards was also quick to credit his kitchen “brotherhood,” and his bartender. “Without a great staff, none of this is possible – they make it happen.” As the food and wine pairing got underway, guests were seated at a large table, where they could be informal and friendly and feel comfortable discussing the flavors of the foods and the wines that were selected to complement them. It is Carscallen’s idea of a European-style dining experience. The first dish presented was a crisp pork belly accompanied with watermelon, basil-lemon yogurt, and feta crumbles. The flavors were fresh, with in-house grown herbs, and the pork was had a crisp crust, rich in flavor, without being fatty. Carscallen paired it with a Spanish Rose – Honor Vera Rose, which was a medium body, dry and light, with tones of strawberries, cherries and, yes, watermelon. I don’t think anyone in attendance left any on their plate – it was a fantastic way to start. Carscallen talked about the unique complexities of each different wine during the course of the evening. She knew the history and location of each winery, and interesting stories about the owners. She explained in detail what grapes are used for which wines, that the color of the wine is determined by the skins of the grape and that fermentation time is what determines the sweetness or dryness of the wine, along with the sugar and yeast content. Her personal

experiences and knowledge of wine-making allowed her to answer questions with ease and humor. The second pairing of the evening started with a 21 Brix Chautauqua Lake Erie County Region Chardonnay. 21 Brix is known for its dry wines, which Carscallen said was very difficult to produce in WNY because of the wet weather. Edwards presented a wild mushroom risotto with a wild berry mango chutney, peach and fennel puree, topped with a fresh Branzino sea bass. He informed us that CJs sea bass in flown in daily and delivered promptly to Ellicottville – not frozen – not vacuum packed. Fresh is everything. In my opinion, this was the perfect pairing – the dry, oaky Chardonnay complementing the earthy mushroom risotto. Oh, and the sea bass was out of this world – the combination of flavors was remarkable. At this point, the conversation at the table was fun and as easily-flowing as the wines! We were all more than sated, and the dishes served by Zerbian and Edwards were so fresh and flavorful that it was hard to decide which was our favorite.

The board also gave the final go-ahead to Clayton Silvernail, who is renovating the former Agway building at 11 Martha Street. The building will contain three professional offices when completed. A new potential project also was on the board’s agenda. It involves altering a pre-existing, five-lot property that had been given “minor subdivision” designation several years ago. Now, after some property ownership changes, three lots of the original subdivision are for sale and a developer wants to build three duplex homes. The other two lots were combined and sold as one.

Village Planning hearing was scheduled for the Sept. 13 meeting. Two projects that have been on the planning board’s agenda for several months were approved. A proposal to construct an accessory building with a three-car garage and second floor apartment at 27 Elizabeth Street was approved. However, the board approved the project on the condition that renovations on the primary home (which was heavily damaged by fire last year) be completed and issued a certificate of occupancy (C of O) before the accessory building can be issued its C of O.

Two more pairings were presented, each one offering a depth of flavor combinations complemented with a Spanish Crianza and then an Argentinian Cabernet Sauvignon. I highly recommend the experience at Cadillac Jacks to anyone interested in learning more about how to pair wines with foods. The flavors in each of the dishes were complex, but not overwhelming or heavy. The wines were unique, and made even better with the right foods to bring out their subtle flavors. The next food and wine pairing is scheduled for later this summer or early fall. So ask your sommelier, “May I pair that for you?” Talk to your wine store clerks about recommendations of pairings, and learn as much as you can. The experience is worth it, in my opinion. Cadillac Jack’s is located at 24 Monroe Street in Ellicottville, NY. Call 716-6995161 for hours or reservations (usually not needed). E-Ville Spirits is located at 10 Monroe Street in Ellicottville, NY. Call 716-699-4474 and is open seven days a week.

There are a number of implications that the Planning Board wants to work through to protect against overdevelopment both now and in the future. And, there are issues with common driveways. Palumbo agreed that more research needs to be done “to make sure we don’t end up with something we don’t want,” but indicated that the developer’s request likely can be worked out. The next meeting of the planning board is scheduled for 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 13 in the town/village hall.

Great Valley Cell Tower Continued from front page
requirements made by the board, which include painting the tower in a light grey or other neutral color, providing a vegetation berm to help hide the tower and including lighting for emergency response helicopters. The requirements were recommended by MDA Engineering president Mark Alianello and town engineer Aaron Tiller. The tower will be built on Martin Road, on a piece of private property owned by Tim and Debbie Halloran. It is adjacent to land owned by Rick Howard, who has been opposed to the placement of the tower all along. At the Aug. 10 meeting, Howard voiced concerns about Halloran cutting trees, which could give him an unobstructed view of the tower. After board discussion, Halloran agreed to a prohibition from cutting trees
on the relevant portion of his land. This became one of the conditions for the special use permit. Town Attorney Peter Sorgi explained that the prohibition against cutting trees must take effect immediately, and should be signed by Halloran as well as Howard and Horvath Communications. The special use permit was approved by a vote of four board members to two. Amy DeTine and Steve Ward voted against the permit. Jacqueline Phillips Murray, of Murray Law Firm, PLLC, the firm representing Horvath Communications, said she was “very pleased” by the board’s approval. “This will fill a gap in coverage in this area,” Murray said. “It’s very significant as it benefits not only community communication… but
emergency communications too.” The cell service will be provided by Verizon Communications. The tower will be 70 by 70 feet at the base and 200 feet high. It will be located in a leased area on the Halloran’s property that is 100 by 100 feet. It is surrounded by a two-foot berm with 21 staggered pine trees, which will help reduce the visibility of the tower base. Murray said it will take some time before the tower can be constructed. Horvath Communications has to bid out the project and get it on a construction schedule before work can begin. Once a construction schedule is established, Murray said the tower can be constructed in as little as eight weeks. She noted it would take “several months” to establish a schedule.

In this world he’s woken up to, Jason’s life is not the one he knows. His wife is not his wife. His son was never born. And Jason is not an ordinary college physics professor, but a celebrated genius who has achieved something remarkable. Something impossible. Is it this world or the other that’s the dream? And even if the home he remembers is real, how can Jason possibly make it back to the family he loves? The answers lie in a journey more wondrous and horrifying than anything he could’ve imagined. Dark Matter is a brilliantly plotted tale that is at once sweeping and intimate, mind-bendingly strange and profoundly human—a relentlessly surprising science-fiction thriller about choices, paths not taken, and how far we’ll go to claim the lives we dream of. This book is currently available in book format only at the Ellicottville Memorial Library. Don’t forget, you can access over 14,400 eBooks and eAudiobooks using your library card!

Village Board Continued from front page
Monroe had to pull out onto the sidewalk in order to see well enough to exit the alley, putting pedestrians, especially children and animals running ahead of their families, at risk. Rounds said that the current one-way signage is confusing and that traffic goes both ways every day. He said he believes the confusion makes it more hazardous, not less. The board and mayor agreed that existing signage is not doing its job and moved to take actions to reconsider the law. Those actions required the board to move to repeal the law, hold a public hearing to get the public’s opinion and reconsider solutions. A notice will be published to that effect, and a hearing will be scheduled, likely for the October meeting. A resident of McKinley Street in the Village asked the board to consider repairing and extending a sidewalk along Mill Street to McKinley for pedestrian safety reasons. She also asked the board to consider installing a streetlight. The board agreed that the issue needs to be addressed and said it would consider funding the work in the next budget. Finally, a resident of a home on Monroe Street in the business district of the Village complained that there is loud noise coming from Madigan’s on many nights until 2 a.m. and that the noise is not loud music, but loud voices. She said she feels that the Village’s noise ordinance is not being enforced. Burrell said he had met with the town supervisor, town police and the residents that day and the police officer in charge explained that the police can only act on a complaint at the time it is occurring. He said the 911 dispatcher needs to be called right away in order to get officers there and assess the noise level. While acknowledging the difficulties of reducing noise levels by the business owners and the police, Burrell said
he thinks the problem can be solved and said he would continue to work with all parties to find solutions. Committee Reports Board member Greg Cappelli, who serves as the board’s parks committee chair, reported that he had obtained costs for purchase and installation of a security system at the Village Park, which has been subject to recent vandalism. The system he recommended includes an internet-connected digital video recorder (DVR) and eight pole-mounted cameras. An additional four cameras may be advisable. The cameras would be equipped with motion sensors and infrared lights and placed strategically around the park. Activity can be monitored remotely from any computer or smart phone. An unintended, but fortunate, consequence of installing the system is that the park, or at least a large area of it, will be Wi-Fi enabled, allowing residents to use their computers while enjoying the outdoors. The board agreed to transfer funds from the general fund balance to cover the cost, not to exceed $2500. Several members of the community were on hand to ask the board for approval of plans to hold a new event called “Stroll the Streets.” The event, to be held on three consecutive Fridays beginning this week (Aug. 12, 19 and 26), will invite visitors to come to the Village, enjoy activities and amusements for children, see a movie and hear music at the Gazebo and visit the shops and restaurants. Shops are being asked to stay open until 8 p.m. and participate in giveaways. The events are officially sponsored by the Chamber of Commerce, but a committee of business owners is independently doing the planning and organizing as a way to get people to come to the village a day early and stay for the entire weekend.

‘What Would Bob Do’ Bracelets to Benefit Rotary Family Support for Ellicottville
By Anne Northrup
It has been about nine weeks since our friend Bob McCarthy passed away and, for me, it still doesn’t seem real. I see signs of Bob every morning at Katy’s Café in Ellicottville where we used to meet him for tea. His photo still smiles down on us. I still see the shamrocks on the tables. The birdhouse and shelves and fish mirror he built – they’re still hanging on the walls. If you didn’t know Bob, you don’t know how important an the impact he had on our small town. Bob was involved in everything. He was the VOICE of Ellicottville announcing NASTAR Races at Holiday Valley. He was the tractor-riding Emcee for the annual Independence Day pet parade and for Christmas in Ellicottville. He founded the Irish Christmas event to raise money for families in need. He organized an Americana Fest to introduce people to working artists and craftspeople in the region. He built beautifully crafted furniture, mirrors and birdhouses for friends or to be auctioned off for charity. He was the epitome of a selfless individual who would hold the door, say hi to a stranger, pick up litter or make a bad situation better with a new perspective. His love for this community and the world – and his large and small actions – made this a better place to live, work and play. After Bob passed away, a friend said to me that it would take everyone in this community to step up to make up for the loss of Bob. I had in my mind what could I do to give back? Then soon after Bob’s death, my “bonus-daughter” Rachel Northrup arrived at her store in the Village one morning to find that the chairs outside the store had been vandalized. At first it made her very angry, but then she thought: “what would Bob do?” So she made a point to process the event differently. When she told me about this, I thought, “What a great phrase.” That’s a great way to remember to do the right thing. It gave me an idea to raise some money and spread the word. And so I created bracelets – suitable for men, women and children – that say “WWBD?” (What would Bob do?) and they are now for sale for $15 each at several shops in Ellicottville. The proceeds will go directly to one of Bob’s favorite charities: Family Support for Ellicottville, a project of Ellicottville’s Rotary Club. If every bracelet is sold, Family Support of Ellicottville will receive a $4,000 donation in Bob’s name. The sales of the bracelets in the first week have been astounding. I love it when I see parents explaining to their children the meaning behind them as they buy and then proudly display them on their wrists. So get your bracelets now, as this is a limited edition memorial to our friend Bob. WWBD Bracelets are available at Adventure Bound on the Fly, Mud, Sweat & Gears, The Purple Doorknob, The City Garage and Ameri-Can. More importantly, when faced with a choice or a challenge, why not stop and think, “What would Bob do?”

VOLUME 1 ISSUE 3
AUGUST 12 - 18, 2016
The Official Newspaper
of the Village of Springville, NY Springville-Griffith Institute Central Schools
By Colleen Mahoney
The Springville-Griffith Institute Board of Education on Monday, Aug. 8 approved a $26+ million capital improvement project. The project still needs to be approved by district taxpayers before any work can begin. The board set a vote date of Sept. 27 for all district residents in Colden, Collins and Springville. In total, the project will cost $25,795,000 plus interest for a total of $27,795,000. A representative from Bernard P. Donegan Inc, the financial consultant to S-GI, said taxpayers wouldn’t see an increase until 2018.
The capital project is projected to cost district taxpayers $19 per year for those without a STAR exemption; $13 for those with a STAR exemption and $7 for those with Senior STAR. S-GI Superintendent Kimberly Moritz called the cost significantly less than the district’s failed December project, which would have cost district taxpayers $47.87 for those without STAR. “This is a significantly smaller impact on taxpayers,” Moritz said, “which was our goal from the beginning.” The project includes work on all five district buildings at SES, Colden Elementary
School, Springville Middle School, the high school and the district office and includes replacement of the Springville Elementary School roof and the high school athletic fields. By reducing the scope of the project at the each building and increasing the amount of work that qualifies for state aid, the district was able to reduce the total project cost. According to Jeff Nunn of Gordon W. Jones Associates Architects, the lead architect for the project, once the project is approved by voters, the district then has to have the work approved by the New York State Education Department, which could took up to nine months. The project can then go out to bid in April 2018 with work completed the following year. At Colden Elementary, it is expected the work will cost $1,552,000. The work would replace the pavement and sidewalks, reroof the original school house and replace a kitchen exhaust hood, which does not meet code. Carpet and vinyl flooring will be replaced throughout the building. See SGI Board page 6
SGI Finalizes Administrative Team for 2016-17 By Colleen Mahoney
Springville-Griffith Institute teaching alumnus Christopher Scarpine was approved as Springville Elementary School Principal at the District’s Aug. 8 Board of Education meeting. Scarpine previously worked with third, fourth and fifth grades as a classroom teacher at SES from 2005-2014. Scarpine is the current middle school assistant principal at Lake Shore EvansBrant Central School District. He takes over the role of SES principal from Marcole Feuz, who is moving to Colden Elementary serving in the same capacity. Kathy Townsend, who previously held the CES principal position, moved to the role of principal for special programs. She will be responsible for developing programs and coordinating initiatives within the district. She will work to coordinate the kindergarten through 12th
grade academic intervention services program throughout the 2016-17 school year, serve as an independent observer throughout the district and work to expand the universal Pre-K program. According to Superintendent Kimberly Moritz’s blog, the job requires a dedicated administrator to remain focused on the tasks. Feuz will begin at Colden Elementary for the 2016-17 school year, returning to the
town in which she was raised and resides. “I am excited about the opportunity to return to Colden as the elementary principal, to work with what I know is an excellent faculty and staff, and to serve the families of the community I love so much,” Feuz said in a statement on the district website. With the addition of Scarpine, the S-GI District rounds out its administrative
The Springville Village Planning Board reviewed three potential building projects at its Aug. 9 meeting. Two of the proposals are for new construction and one is for expansion of an existing business. Country Fair, at 21 S. Cascade Drive, is looking to expand its structure to include more freezer, cooler and storage space on the northwest corner. The plan also includes
expanding on the southeast corner (the South Cascade Drive side) to house a “beer cave.” Code Enforcement Officer Mike Kaleta said he doesn’t see a problem with the expansion, saying “I don’t see any problems. It’s not taking up any parking spaces … there’s nothing really major.” However, before the planning board can approve the expansion, Country Fair must get approval from the

The Village of Springville Board of Trustees rejected the only bid received for the Heritage Park project at its Monday, Aug. 8 meeting. The bid came from Nova Site in the amount of $770,000. Keith Marquis, of Marquis Engineering, recommended the board reject the bid, said Village Administrator Liz Melock, who said the bid was more than the village appropriated for the project. The board voted to re-advertise for bids, and will open them on Sept. 2. The board discussed the work being done at the municipal building at 65 Franklin St., which began in July. Superintendent of Public Works Kenneth Kostowniak said the Erie County Sheriff’s substation has been relocated to a temporary space in the building and most of the interior demolition has been started. The back stairs will be demolished and Kostowniak said residents will start to see “real change” in the coming weeks. Springville Mayor William Krebs reported that the Erie County Sheriff’s Office (ECSO) has discussed moving more deputies to the Springville substation and operating the Southern Tier duties from
there. Krebs said the village would again reach out to the ECSO and Erie County Executive Mark Poloncarz for funding. “They’re talking about using [Springville] for services outside the village,” Krebs said. “Village residents cannot pay for services outside the village.” Krebs asked Melock to again reach out to Poloncarz and the ECSO to negotiate funding opportunities for the capital improvement projects. Updates to the village’s fee schedule were also approved. Utility fees in the village were last updated in 2009, Krebs said. The board was updated on vacant properties in the village, known as “zombie properties,” by Code Enforcement Officer Mike Kaleta. The village will move forward with pursuing Supreme Court action regarding the property at 134 Waverly St., which had a demolition deadline of June 20. Kaleta reported he was told an asbestos inspection was completed, but he has yet to see a report. Village Attorney Paul Weiss said the next step in the process would be to bring the issue to the Supreme Court. The board gave Weiss authorization to See Village Board page 6

From left: Ryder, Carter, Blakelee and Harrison Hoffman with some of the cows they’re showing at the Erie County Fair By Alicia Dziak
For many, the Erie County Fair means rides, shows and the type of food that probably wouldn’t fit into your diet. But for many local kids, the Fair is a place where their yearround hard work pays off—the animal shows. Families from all over WNY head to the Fair with their animals and high hopes. The Hoffman family owns a farm on Wyandale Road in Springville. The busy dairy
farm milks 200 Holsteins (the black and white ones) and have about 500 total. It is a family-run operation, spanning four generations, the youngest being SGI students Ryder, 13, Carter, 12, Blakelee, 10, and Harrison, 8. Their parents, Lindsay and Dave, got the kids involved in showing calves at the Fair five years ago, and it has become a family tradition. Both Lindsay and Dave showed at the Fair as kids, and actually met each
other there when they were teenagers. Prepping for the Fair is not something that begins and ends with the Fair dates, of course. It’s a year-round commitment. “A lot happens before the show,” said Lindsay. “You have to feed (the calves) a special diet, keep them clean and train them.” Days before the Fair begins, the Hoffman’s are at the Fairgrounds preparing for the See Fair Animals page 3

Springville Times Gets Official Status Earlier this week, the Springville Times was named the official paper of the village of Springville and one of the official papers of the Springville-Griffith Institute Central School District. While the distinction of official paper means we are the “go-to” paper for legal and public notices for the municipalities, it means a lot more to us as a publication. Now in our third ever issue, we believe the official paper distinction to be one that puts the trust of Springville and S-GI into our hands. It’s a nod to our professionalism and our commitment to the communities we serve. The Ellicottville Times has never taken its distinction as official paper lightly, and the Springville Times doesn’t intend to, either. We didn’t produce the Springville Times for the official newspaper distinction; and we wouldn’t have left if we didn’t get it. We’re here to bring local news to the residents who make our communities so special - the people we see daily, who deserve the most fair and local news we can give them. We’re here to stay, officially.

Fair Animals The Hulbert Library of the Town of Concord was presented a check in the amount of $1,305 by Erie County Legislator John Mills. The check represents funds raised through Mills’ annual Hot Dog Roast. In its 10th year, the Hot Dog Roast has raised $11,710 for the Concord library. Mills presented the donation to Bridgette Heintz, library director, on Aug. 8. Also present for the presentation were town of Concord Supervisor Gary Eppolito, Concord Town Board Member Clyde Drake, Library Board Treasurer Dr. Carl Eisenhard
and Library Board Trustee Kelli Rumfola. “Thanks to the support of the greater Concord, Springville community, my Hot Dog Roast Fundraiser has now raised $11,710 in 10 years to support the library’s efforts to provide quality programming and materials,” said Mills, in a press release. “I want to thank all the local officials and the library staff for helping to ensure the event was a success.” Heintz said the money has not yet been earmarked for use, but will be added to the library’s account for programming or material use. “On behalf of myself and the Hulbert Library Board of
Trustees, thank you to Mr. Mills and his office for continuing to support the libraries,” Heintz said, in a press release. “A sincere thank you as well to the town of Concord, village of Springville, the Hulbert Library staff, all the volunteers who assisted with the fundraiser and all who showed up to make the event another success.” Over the years, the Hot Dog Roast Fundraisers have raised more than $65,700 for the libraries in Mills’ district. For information on the Hot Dog Roast Fundraisers, or to speak with Mills, contact his Legislative Office at 858-8850 or email john.mills@erie.gov.

unit apartment buildings. The apartments would be the second phase of the existing Mapleview Apartment complex. Planning Board Chairman Bob Mulbauer said there was still information needed before the board can continue the dialogue. A retail shop is being proposed for space on South Cascade Drive, near the
Cattaraugus County Bank, at 231 S. Cascade Drive. Owned by Roosa Corporation, the building would be 6,889 square feet, according to the plans. The site was previously billed for a restaurant, but has since been changed to retail. It would include 30 parking spaces. No official action was taken on any of the proposed matters, but public hearings for all three
will take place during the next planning board meeting. Country Fair will go before the Zoning Board of Appeals on Aug. 24 at 7 p.m. The three public hearings will be Sept. 13, beginning at 7 p.m. Both meetings will be held at the Municipal Building, at 65 Franklin St., Springville.

show. The second day of the Fair brings the Showmanship Show, where kids are judged on how they lead their animals, how clean the animals are and how the kids show them. The “big show,” the WNY Regional Show, is Sunday, Aug. 14. It’s broken down into the ages of the animals and judged on “what they look like, body style and pedigree,” Lindsay explained. Cows, for example, should not be overweight and judges look at everything -- from back structure to udders. Between shows, the daily routine begins at 6 a.m. “We have to wash them, scrub them, feed them, clean out their stalls, and lead them around so they’re used to people and are calm during the shows,” Lindsay said. The rest of the time, the family and many others like them, can be found hanging out in the barns with their animals, milking the cows and answering any questions the passers-by may have. Lindsay said it’s a great experience for her kids and “it teaches them to be friendly” as they step out of their comfort zones.After five years, the Hoffman clan has a wealth of Fair experience, bringing 10
calves and cows with them this year. “It’s a good experience and fun to show them,” Ryder said of his days at the Fair. “I like showing them to see how they do,” Carter added. Blakelee said that her favorite part is “just hanging out with the cows,” and that she especially likes when she can brush them and fluff up their tails. Harrison was only three years old when the family started coming to the Fair to show their animals. ““I like showing because I like walking the (calves),” he said. Anything worth doing comes with some challenges, and showing animals is no different. Ryder and Blakelee
agree that training and getting the calves to walk are the hardest part. Harrison thinks feeding them is the biggest challenge. And Carter said that “washing them and getting stains out” proves to be the most difficult. Besides taking away from the experience a strong work ethic, the Hoffman kids have lasting memories of their time spent at the Fair. “Three years ago, we won the Junior Championship for the best calf there,” Ryder said. Blakelee enjoys the “down time” playing cards with her brothers, parents and another family. “We go in the tack stalls and play,” she said. “My favorite memory is scaring people with a (fake) rat and fishing line!” Carter laughed. The Hoffmans and many other local families will be in Barn 5 at the Erie County Fairgrounds through Monday. (After that, another group of kids will take their place, showing a different breed of cows.) Stop in and say hi (and beware of fake rats!)

Learn Musical Improv Comedy Aug. 25
Attention actors and improvisers who want to improve your performance bag of tricks. The Springville Center for the Arts presents a special workshop with Bob Baker, a veteran musician and improv comedy instructor/ performer. A prolific author of 13 books, Baker’s newest title, “The Improv Comedy Musician,” was co-written with Laura Hall, the longtime music director and pianist on the TV show “Whose Line Is It Anyway?” It’s great to create scenes, characters, relationships, and dialogue on the spot. Now you can take it to another level by
adding music and singing too. Bob will teach you the basics of melody, rhythm and rhyme – and how to incorporate them into an improv game or scene. No matter your previous improv or musical experience, he promises to make it easy
and fun to make up lyrics on the spot. In case you’re intimidated, Baker says, “Let me assure you, musical improv has nothing to do with being a good singer. It isn’t a talent show. You don’t even have to sing. It’s all about learning to express yourself rhythmically. You can do this!” Come learn the art of musical improv on Thursday, Aug. 25 from 7 to 9 p.m. Go ahead. Stretch yourself. It’ll be good for you! The cost will be $10 payable at the workshop. To register, email scaseth@gmail.com or call 716-592-9038.

team. All four schools will have new principals in the 2016-17 year. Scarpine joins James Bialasik, who took over duties at the high school, and Shanda DuClon, at the middle school, as new hires. Bialasik and DuClon began their duties on July 1. An official start date hasn’t been set for Scarpine. Until then, Rochelle Sarikey, director of special education at SES, will act as principal. Kimberly Moritz began her duties as district superintendent on March 7, and Maureen Lee began as business official on Aug. 1.
Kate Werner continues as high school assistant principal, Joe DeMartino remains the director of physical education and athletics and JoAnn DePue will continue in her role as director of technology, assessment and data. Mortiz acknowledged that the district had seen some turnover with its administrative team, but is ready to begin working together. She noted that the new hires, in conjunction with those who have been in the district, form a “solid, collaborative” team who can bridge the gap between the community and
district. “While this is more change at one time than anyone would likely recommend, S-GI needs to reinvent itself to step away from the leadership problems that have plagued the district for too long. The S-GI school district community can feel hopeful as we work to build trust,” Moritz said. “We have the right people in the right roles and I’m proud to work with all of them. Together with an incredible [board of education], we can make S-GI the district so many of our families and employees have told me they want it to be.”

send a letter declaring the property a public nuisance. Kaleta reported that the property at 110 S. Central Ave. has been inspected and he should have that report soon. Kaleta said he didn’t think the structure would withstand another harsh winter, but believes it could be renovated if the “right person” came along. The board voted to move forward with a Supreme Court proceeding with that property as well, but Krebs said he would like to reach out to the Buffalo Erie Niagara Land
Improvement Corporation (BENLIC). “We have a bank that’s walked away, an owner that walked away … who still has the deed,” Krebs said of the S. Central property. “I think we should start the process for Supreme Court action … I also think we should start a conversation with BENLIC … see if they have a contractor willing to fix it.” In other business, the board designated the Springville Times as the Village’s official paper until April 2017. With the designation, all official public notices from the village
of Springville will be found exclusively in the Springville Times. Representatives from the Times and the Springville Herald, which have both published in Springville since the closure of the Springville Journal, spoke on behalf of their publications. Representatives from the Buffalo News and Salamanca Press also addressed the board, each saying they are considering publishing in the Springville area. The board will next meet Sept. 12 at 7 p.m. at 65 Franklin St.

SGI Board Continued from front page
“We have conducted two thorough air quality studies in Colden due to health concerns and complaints,” Moritz wrote on her blog. “While both studies … revealed that the air quality at CES is acceptable and is not a risk to our staff and students, we cannot ignore that this old carpeting may be contributing to the complaints.” Moritz had previously addressed the debate about closing Colden Elementary due to declining enrollment. While Moritz acknowledges that S-GI is serving fewer students, she noted that the district needs to have a wider conversation about how to handle lower student numbers. In the meantime, however, the district needs to take care of the buildings they have. Springville Elementary School will receive a new roof, as the 1998 portion of the
roof is failing. Mortiz called it the “most pressing” issue in the district. The total scope of work proposed for SES is $6,527,000. Work at Springville Middle School is expected to cost $9,517,000 and includes replacement of the sidewalks, pavement and curbing. Moritz said the repaving is “sorely needed.” The entire roof will also be repaired, along with the roof drains and multi-zone heating and ventilation units. During the Aug. 8 board meeting, Nunn addressed the press box, which was a point of discussion during a community information session. The current press box at the high school does not meet code and has to be replaced. Residents questioned if it could be renovated and reduced in size to save costs. Nunn explained the difference in
cost between renovation and replacement was so miniscule that the district should replace it. The size of the press box is being reduced and there will be roof access. The next Springville-Griffith Institute Board of Education meeting will be held on Monday, Sept. 12 at 7 p.m. in the high school library and media center, 290 N. Buffalo St., in Springville. The district-wide vote will be Sept. 27 from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Voting will take place at the Collins Center Fire Hall, on Main Street; Colden Elementary School, at 8263 Boston-Colden Road; and the High School main lobby, 290 N. Buffalo St., Springville. For more information on the capital project, visit www. SpringvilleGI.org.
