Not sure if it is still true or not but I remember outside of Plattsburgh (in the Adirondacks) they would use sand because of the damage the salt can cause to the ground/plants/animals.

This morning I heard that the Town of Plattsburgh is worried that they may not be able to afford enough salt for this winter because of the increase in prices... I seem to remember hearing a couple months ago that the City of Plattsburgh decided to purchase salt early because within the week it was expected that Salt prices would increase sharpley.  I am wondering why one governmental entity was privy to this increase and the other was not... actually I wonder why I was aware of the increase (thanks to WPTZ and or the Press Republican) and yet the town sat idley by?  I do not live in the town, if I did I would be very upset that well... they baisically waisted tax payer money by waiting until now to purchase salt.

Life,  You can go to the Board of Elections at the county building.  They will have the forms there for you,  I believe you can also go to the Post Office.  One last place is if you have to go to DMV to get/renew a license you can register there as well.

I do not want to get political on here, but it all depends on what you are looking for in a leader.  (if this was in person I would let you know exactly what I thought) There used to be a website out there that would have a list of different issues that you would select from and it would tell you who is the best fit... After a quick search I was unable to find it... anyone out there know the website I am talking about?

Before I say this I wanto to remind you that I moved out of the area for a few years... That being said there used to be an in door golf course near the Sherrifs office.  I have not heard one way or another if it is still open.  If you are into golf it is a good activity for the winter.
