SHRED EVENT AT AVIATION MALL

Written by Staff Report on . Posted in ARCC Spotlight, Community, Featured, Home & Garden.

Aviation Mall is partnering with the Adirondack Regional Chamber of Commerce and ConfiData to offer the community and its residents an opportunity to drop off documents to be shredded for free! This event will take place on Saturday, September 16th, from 9:00 AM to 11:00 AM in the front east parking lot of Aviation Mall.

Participants can bring up to five boxes to shred (box size cannot exceed 24” x 12” x 10 ¼”), and items will be shredded on the spot in the mobile shred trucks. ConfiData can shred and recycle just about anything – junk mail, tax returns, checks, files, manila folders, or any documents containing personal information.

Please consider bringing a non-perishable food donation with your shred drop-off.  All food item donations will benefit the Open Door Mission, which exists to serve people at their point of need, cultivating personal growth and community sustainability – individuals who are homeless and low income.

The event is open to the public, and will occur rain or shine.

Effective immediately, the western portion of the intersection will be closed to all traffic, and all other traffic through the intersection will be extremely limited due to the extent of the damage to the roadway.

It’s Back to School Time: Injuries and Employment Problems

Written by Giovanna D'Orazio, D'Orazio Peterson LLP on . Posted in Business, Community, Education, Featured, News, Opinion.

We hope that everyone has a stress-free transition back into the school year. But, sometimes, things go wrong at school, and this article will explore when liability can arise.

First up, personal injuries.

A school is a property like any other, which means that if you are hurt by dangerous conditions like disrepairs and poorly maintained facilities, you can sue for negligence. Schools can also be sued for failing to take remedial action with respect to bullying, and in the context of other instances of violence like fights between students or altercations with personnel.

An item to keep in mind if you are injured at a school is that most schools in New York enjoy a layer of protection provided by the Education Law’s notice of claim requirement. This means that, as a prerequisite to filing a lawsuit, you have to serve a notice of claim on the appropriate individual(s) within three months of the date of your accident. This applies to students as well as to other visitors to the property.

What if you are an employee of the school? Typically, employees in New York cannot sue their employers for negligence because of the Workers’ Compensation law. That means if you slip on a spill in the cafeteria that should have been cleaned up sooner, your remedy is in Workers’ Comp and not in a lawsuit. Employees who are injured at work can have recourse, however, if there is a third party responsible. So, if a contractor is doing work at the school and you are injured because of its negligence, you can have what’s called a third party claim against the contractor and still receive Workers’ Compensation. However, your recovery in a personal injury lawsuit will likely be reduced by what you have already received, i.e., the Workers’ Comp lien.

Next up, employment issues.

Public schools are subject to the same state and federal anti-discrimination laws as any other employer, as well as the federal Family and Medical Leave Act. This means that employees cannot be targeted because of their protected status (for example, sex, race, a disability, or age) or be retaliated against for making a complaint of discrimination or harassment based on their protected status. When it comes to state law claims, that notice of claim requirement still applies, so it’s important to keep an eye on applicable deadlines. Federal employment claims are not affected by the notice of claim requirement but may require filing a charge at the EEOC before moving forward with a lawsuit.

In public schools, employees also enjoy some, albeit limited, First Amendment protection when they speak on matters of public concern.

Often teachers and other school employees have protection through their union Collective Bargaining Agreement or under the Civil Service Law or Education Law, that may offer some job protection beyond what is available to many private employees. So, it is important for someone dealing with an employment related issue to be sure they understand all of their rights and options as they navigate a difficult work situation.

We certainly hope that the school year goes off without a hitch, but if not, be sure to keep in mind that schools enjoy some heightened protections in New York so it’s important to explore your options sooner rather than later.

Local Residents Warned of Election Staff Impostors

Written by Staff Report on . Posted in Community, Featured, Local Leads.

Incidents of home visits from apparent impersonators reported around NY State…

Boards of Elections staff in Washington and Warren counties are warning residents about individuals impersonating election officials. These individuals confront voters and make accusations that they are illegally registered to vote.

Incidents have been reported this week in a number of locations around New York State, including Warren and Washington counties, in which individuals visited the homes of voters with paperwork to incorrectly claim they were illegally registered to vote.

In a local case, a woman – who had recently moved to Warren County was visited Sunday, August 27th, 2023 – was approached by individuals falsely claiming to be from Washington County Board of Elections, who told her she had illegally registered to vote in Warren County… In fact, her registration was legal, according to the Warren County Board of Elections.

The two women who visited the Warren County home carried identification cards. They presented the resident with a blank NY State Election Complaint Form, leaving the Warren County resident shaken.

Sheriff’s offices in Warren and Washington counties have been notified.

Residents should be aware that Board of Elections staff do not visit homes or voters in person.  All contact between Boards of Elections staff and voters is done in person at official Board of Elections offices, or via telephone, email, or the U.S. Postal Service.

Anyone who is visited by someone questioning their voter registration should look at any identification they offer, but not interact any further with the visitor… It would be very helpful to have descriptions and license plate numbers of the people involved if possible before contacting local law enforcement. Board of Elections staff should also be notified.

In Warren County, Board of Elections staff can be reached at (518) 761-6458.

In Washington County, Board of Elections staff can be reached at (518) 746-2180.
