Stolen Fuel Truck Recovered… Ran Out Of Fuel

Written by Staff Report on October 17, 2023. Posted in Community, Featured, News.

On Monday, October 16th at 5:45 AM, a fuel truck was stolen from Rutland Fuel Company in Rutland, Vermont… The fuel truck was recovered later the same day in Glens Falls, after the truck seemingly ran out of fuel. The 2023 Frieghtliner, owned by Scot Sullivan, was carrying 800 gallons of fuel. No arrests have been made.

The truck was located at 1:35 PM in Glens Falls,and reported to police by Kelsey Duprey of Glens Falls: “I was pretty shocked to see the truck where I am right now just because of how far away it is,” Duprey said.

The truck had been seen early in the morning being operated in an unsafe manner. The concerned citizen called the Rutland Fuel Company and left a message regarding the vehicle being driven recklessly.

Owner, Scot Sullivan posted on Facebook for help. There was a sighting reported by a woman from Ticonderoga who spotted the truck and posted a video of the alleged thief wearing a hardhat and vest. She called the police.

Sullivan credits the use of social media for helping to recover the truck: “I think it helped law enforcement, and it certainly helped us track where he was. People of all walks of life were sharing it and we were getting reports of the truck in Pittsford, in Brandon, in Middlebury, in Vergennes,” Sullivan said.

On Thursday, October 26th, 2023, the Washington County Fair Office – located at 392 Old Schuylerville Road in Greenwich – will be hosting a Farm Lease Learning Circle for Non Farming Landowners. This event will take place between 6:30 PM and 8:00 PM.

This event provides information to any landowner who would like more information about making their land available for farming. Nicole Tommell from the Cornell Cooperative Extension and farmers Jason Heitman and Andrea Grom will talk about what should be considered in developing a successful farm lease. The event provides an opportunity to meet landowners and service producers, ask questions, and learn about future goals.

The Agricultural Stewardship Association (ASA) is a non-profit, community-supported land conservancy dedicated to protecting local farm land and working forests from encroaching development. The ASA is one of the very few land trusts in New York State focused exclusively on conserving working farms and forests. The ASA was founded in 1990, and has helped to conserve over 30.200 acres of 165 properties in Washington and Rensselaer counties.

This program is supported by American Farmland Trust, with support from the New York State Conservation Partnership Program and the New York Environmental Protection Fund.

Fall Trout Stocking by Warren County Fish Hatchery

Written by Staff Report on October 16, 2023. Posted in Community, Entertainment, Featured.

Fall is a great time to do some fishing! The staff at Warren County Fish Hatchery have begun their Fall trout stocking program, preparing allotments of rainbow trout for Schroon River and Glen Lake.

The hatchery is located on 38 acres along the Hudson River in Warrensburg. The grounds offer two sheltered picnic areas with restrooms, a children’s play area and canoe access site, as well as a large open area for other activities.

The Warren County Fish Hatchery is operated by the Parks, Recreation and Railroad division of the Warren County DPW. The Hatchery has been in operation since 1914; however Warren County obtained the facility from New York State in 1982. Since then, they have had great success in raising domestic brook trout, rainbow trout, landlocked Atlantic salmon, and heritage brook trout.

The fish raised here provide improved sport fishing throughout Warren County waters. Wild strains of brook trout, which are provided by the Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC), are raised and stocked as fingerlings each fall… These fish are 3 to 4 inches long, and have been obtained as eggs from state and federal hatcheries. They are incubated, hatched and transferred to “grow out” in the hatcheries’ raceways – these are tanks that are relatively shallow and rely on a high water flow to sustain aquatic life.

In the summer months, these fish are moved to rearing ponds for future growth. The facility currently utilizes 10 rearing ponds and a Display Pond, which allows visitors a close-up view of mature trout. Their ages range from one to five years, and they may weigh upwards of five pounds. These fish are typically not stocked in area lakes and rivers, and are kept for display only.

Warren County Held Special Meeting to Begin the Process to Renew Tax

Written by Staff Report on October 16, 2023. Posted in Business, Community, Featured, Home & Garden.

On Friday, October 13th, 2023, The Warren County Board of Supervisors held a special meeting to begin the process to renew the county’s 0.25% tax on new mortgages.

Director of Public Affairs Don Lehman said: “The way the calendar falls this year, beginning the process at the regular Board of Supervisors meeting on October 20th would not have gotten it done in time for when it expires at the end of 2023, so a special meeting was scheduled.”

This tax has been on the books since 2009. Annually, Warren County collects as much as $1.6-million through this tax. This tax is renewed every three years through this process.

The board set a public hearing regarding the local law that allows the tax. This public hearing will be held at the Board of Supervisors’ monthly meeting on Friday, October 20th. This meeting will start at 10:00 AM, at Warren County Municipal Center.

The City of Glens Falls Hosts Ceremonial Groundbreaking for Central DRI Project

Written by Kate Haggerty on October 16, 2023. Posted in Business, Community, Downtown, Featured.

On Friday, October 20th, 2023, at 3:00 PM, the city of Glens Falls will be hosting a ceremonial groundbreaking to mark the start of construction of the City’s $5-million event and market center. This is the signature project of the Downtown Revitalization Initiative.

The $4.55-million contract for this building project was awarded to Bunkoff General Contractors Inc. out of Latham, New York, winning the bid over five other contractors. The project – located between 51 and 63 South Street – will be a 6,000 square-foot farmers market and event space. The Market Center pavilion will be the year-round home of the farmers market and other community events.

“We’re pleased to now be able to show on-the-ground progress on South Street that reflects all of the work that City staff have done together with consultants, designers, and other professionals to bring this to fruition,” said Glens Falls Mayor Bill Collins.

This investment is expected to bring more shoppers and investment to what for decades has been a run-down commercial area: “The Event and Market Center is expected to be transformative – and not just to South Street,” Collins said. “It will no longer be the last corridor of the city untouched by economic progress.”

“It has been a marathon to bring this project to fruition,” said Glens Falls Economic Development Director Jeff Flagg. “Following the sudden passing of my long-time predecessor, Ed Bartholomew, and amid the 30-month disruption of the COVID pandemic the City staff, consultants, and advisors spent more than a year just getting the project back on track… And then, with the update in the project parameters, and the increasing costs of materials and labor, we had to ensure that the proposal was still economically viable and acceptable to the state,” Flagg said.

The groundbreaking ceremony will take place at 57 South Street in Glens Falls at 3:00 PM on Friday, October 20th, 2023.
