New tower in Carlton for high-speed Internet concerns neighbors
Some residents say tower fall zone at water treatment plant includes private access road

CARLTON – Rick Stacey on Monday tells the Carlton Planning Board his shares his concerns about a new 150-foot-high tower that is planned on land by the Village of Albion Water Treatment Plant on Wilson Road in Carlton. From left include Planning Board members Valerie Beam, Robert VanWuyckhuyse, Chairman Bill Quaranto, secretary Brenda Mufford and member David Warren.
Stacey said neighbors weren’t notified of the project, and the fall zone for the tower cuts across a private access road for Oak Orchard on the Lake.
Contractors are already on site working on the project, and have used private land without permission to access the site, Stacey said.
The Town of Carlton Planning Board on Monday approved a revised site plan that now uses the driveway for the Village of Albion Water Treatment Plant as the access road. The board approved a special use permit, too. The rest of the project hasn’t been changed from the site plan approved on April 1 by the Carlton Planning Board.
The tower is part of a $11,216,500 contract from North Shore Networks LLC in Medina to implement the faster internet service. The county in November 2024 was awarded a $11,562,698 state grant to upgrade wireless internet service throughout the county.
The funding came through the Empire State Development’s ConnectALL Municipal Infrastructure Program. This will allow the county to increase wireless internet speeds from the current 25 Mega Bit Per Seconds (Mbps) to 100 (Mbps).
There are currently 19 towers for the high-speed internet system. There are new towers planned for Carlton and Ridgeway, as well as equipment to go on a grain silo in Clarendon.
Stacey, however, said the Carlton site is on a village-owned property that doesn’t allow a fall zone without going onto neighboring private property. He addressed the board on Monday, sharing concerns from four other property owners as well – David Coleman, Gary and Ruth Smith, Steve Nesbitt, and Brett and Arora Browning.
He asked the Carlton Planning Board to order an immediate stop work order on the construction, saying it’s a clear violation of the 1 ½ times fall zone violation.
Stacey said there is a 34-foot survey boundary discrepancy that puts the fall zone on private property. He asked for the town attorney to initiate an independent review of the survey discrepancy. He also said the town faces legal exposure because code enforcement officer Kevin Sheehan lacked the certification to approve the project. Sheehan also has a conflict of interest as a trustee for the Village of Albion, which owns the land and the water treatment plant, Stacey said.
He requested the full public record for all Carlton building permits, environmental reviews for the project and the precise grant application layout that was submitted to the state.
Planning Board Chairman Bill Quaranto said Monday’s meeting wasn’t a public hearing. He gave Stacey five minutes to present his comments, but stopped him after five minutes.
When the board went through a lengthy resolution to approve the project with a revised plan for the access road, Stacey interjected there were legitimate safety concerns for residents. If the tower falls, it could block the access road for Oak Orchard on the Lake, Stacey said.
Town Attorney Bridget O’Toole warned him more than once to refrain from making further comments because it wasn’t a public hearing.
Stacey, after the meeting, said he intends to file an injunction and seek to have the project stopped at the current location. He said there other spots in Carlton where the tower could meet the network needs, including by co-locating on a tower on McCutcheon Road near Kendrick Road.

Photo by Tom Rivers
ALBION – Orleans County Legislator Skip Draper, right, presents a proclamation last week to Eddie Eagle, a gun safety mascot, that designates August 2026 as “Firearm Safety Awareness Month.” They are joined by Justin Niederhofer, the county’s emergency management director.
The Eddie Eagle mascot was developed by the National Rifle Association to teach children about gun safety.
The proclamation from the County legislature states that firearm safety is a “shared responsibility” among firearm owners, families, educators, healthcare providers, law enforcement, sportsmen, firearm instructors, retailers and community organizations.
Responsible firearm ownership includes safe handling, secure firearm storage and child access prevention, the proclamation states.
“Orleans County supports educational efforts that encourage lawful firearm ownership, promote responsible firearm ownership and handling, responsible hunting traditions, recreational shooting safety, suicide prevention awareness, secure firearm storage, and the protection of children and vulnerable individuals,” the proclamation states.
County legislators said Firearm Safety Awareness Month provides an opportunity to increase public awareness, promote voluntary safe storage practices, encourage community education, and strengthen partnerships dedicated to preventing firearm-related injuries and deaths through education and responsible ownership.

ALBION – The Orleans County Legislature and District Attorney Susan Howard, second from right, last week presented “Commendations of Excellency” to first responders and investigators in a Medina arson case.
Zachary Natale, 32, of Medina pleaded guilty to the crime and on April 1 was sentenced to 13 years in state prison by Orleans County Court Judge Sanford Church. Natale also was ordered to pay $270,000 in restitution.
Natale admitted to setting a fire on Dec. 17, 2024 at 207 Bates Rd. That fire forced a mother and her 9-year-old son to evacuate.
Howard during the April 1 sentencing said Natale caused a “terrifying, horrifying ordeal” for the victims where they could have been killed, and also put local firefighters in danger.
Howard and County Legislator Skip Draper, right, praised the first responders for preventing a loss of life from the blaze. Howard and Draper also commended law enforcement and fire investigators for their work which led to a conviction in the case.

MEDINA – National Night Out is back for the fifth year in Medina on Tuesday with free pizza, and lots of activities to connect with local first responders and agencies that serve the community.
The event runs from 5:30 to 8 p.m. outside the Clifford Wise Intermediate School at 1016 Gwinn St.
National Night Out often draws about 500 to 800 people. Albion hosted NNO for five years from 2015 to 2019. It was then cancelled due to the Covid pandemic and restrictions in 2020 and 2021. Medina has hosted it annually since 2022.
There are many activities including the Battle of the Belts competition which will be emceed by Assemblyman Steve Hawley. The battle of the Belts feature four-person teams alternating as fast as they can to put on seat belts in four different seats in a car. Many community members also will be in the dunk tank and there will again be a bike rodeo.
A committee planning the event has been co-chaired by Diana Fulcomer of UConnectCare and Sherrie Bensley of GO Health. Other committee members include Alishia Foss and Taryn Moyle of Community Action, Jess Marciano of the Village of Medina, and Danielle Figura of the Orleans County Mental Health Department.
Use real data, rather than emotions, in spending tax dollars to address crime
Editor:
I appreciate Mr. Lauricella taking the time to respond, and I want to clarify, I am not dismissing concerns about public safety. I am dismissing concerns about public safety that are built on anecdote while ignoring the data in front of us. Those are not the same thing.
Any honest debate about safety in our communities requires a careful blend of data and lived experience, not one at the expense of the other. Mr. Lauricella has been a vocal advocate for fiscal responsibility, so I’ll ask directly: is it responsible stewardship of taxpayer dollars to fund programs, initiatives, and legislation based on how some people feel, particularly when those feelings run contrary to what the data actually shows?
Mr. Lauricella points to a rise in unpunished “quality-of-life” offenses, and here is where we clearly part ways. So-called victimless crimes and quality-of-life offenses are precisely the category where we’d be better served addressing root causes rather than reflexively reaching for punishment. The prevailing instinct among hardline conservatives on this issue is a punitive one, which conveniently keeps the prison-industrial complex well fed. Perhaps that’s no accident, given how central the prison system is to the economic “health” of our region.
From what I’ve observed, public criticism of bail reform in New York tends to lump every offense together — petty theft and manslaughter treated as though they sit on the same shelf. That criticism conveniently ignores both the facts and the actual intent of the legislation, which is to reduce recidivism rates for low-level offenses. This is exactly where data matters, because one person’s lived experience, however real to them, isn’t a stand-in for the experience of an entire population. I don’t think Mr. Lauricella is actually disputing the validity of the research. I think he’d simply prefer that “observing reality” mean whatever aligns with his existing opinion.
I’ll skip the broad brushstrokes this time and instead leave Mr. Lauricella with a question. He argues that academia and statistical models shouldn’t “supersede the firsthand experience of local business owners, residents and crime victims.” Is that a standard you’re prepared to apply consistently? Take, for instance, the firsthand experience of parents, teachers, school administrators, and survivors of school shootings — should their testimony be what drives legislation restricting access to firearms? Or take the firsthand experience of survivors of rape, incest, or molestation — are conservatives equally willing to let those lived experiences shape how we legislate abortion? Or is the anecdote-over-evidence approach reserved for the topics where it happens to be politically convenient?
Much of this latest letter reads as an argument for governance by the loudest minority rather than the majority informed by evidence. It would help if Mr. Lauricella defined, in concrete terms, what qualifies as a “genuine community concern,” listed the actual problems facing Orleans County, and identified their real causes. Absent that, this amounts to little more than an appeal to emotion.

Newfane man charged with arson after allegedly throwing Molotov cocktail at Albion residence
Press Release, Albion Police Chief David Mogle
Marquis Harrell
ALBION – During the early morning hours on Saturday, the Albion Police Department arrested a Newfane man following a domestic violence investigation that resulted in the discovery of an incendiary device at a village residence.
At approximately 3 a.m., Albion police officers were dispatched to make a phone call to a village resident after they reported receiving multiple threatening text messages and emails from her ex-boyfriend. The messages included threats to harm the victim and set her residence on fire by way of Molotov cocktail.
During the investigation, officers confirmed that a valid full stay away order of protection was in effect, prohibiting the suspect from having any contact with the victim.
At approximately 4 a.m., an Albion Police K-9 Officer responded to the victim’s residence to continue the investigation and check the area for suspicious activity. Upon arrival, the officer observed a suspicious vehicle parked outside the apartment complex and requested additional officers to investigate the vehicle while he continued toward the residence.
As the K-9 Officer approached the apartment complex, he observed a male exiting from the rear of the property who immediately fled on foot. After a brief pursuit through the area, the suspect was apprehended without incident at a neighboring apartment complex. The suspicious vehicle was later determined to be the suspect’s Uber transportation to the scene.
Officers subsequently discovered a suspected Molotov cocktail at the rear of the victim’s residence that had been ignited and thrown at the building. Although the device had burned itself out prior to officers’ arrival, officers observed fire damage to the residence.
The suspect was identified as Marquis J. Harrell, 22, of Newfane, New York. A search of the suspect resulted in the recovery of additional evidence related to the investigation.
Harrell was charged with:
- Arson in the First Degree (A1 Felony)
- Criminal Mischief in the First Degree (B Felony)
- Reckless Endangerment in the First Degree (4 counts) (D Felony)
- Endangering the Welfare of a Child (2 counts) (A Misdemeanor)
- Criminal Possession of a Weapon in the Third Degree (D Felony)
- Criminal Contempt (2 counts) (E Felony)
Following processing by the Albion Police Department, Harrell was arraigned in CAP Court and remanded to the Orleans County Jail without bail due to the seriousness of the charges.
A new order of protection was issued protecting the victim and her two young children, who were inside the residence at the time of the incident.
The Albion Police Department would like to thank the Orleans County Sheriff’s Office Road Patrol and Dispatch Divisions for their assistance during the investigation, as well as Orleans County District Attorney Susan Howard for her support throughout the case.
Criminal charges are merely accusations. The defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in a court of law.

KNOWLESVILLE – Eli Schutz, 10, of Lyndonville gets ready to bring his steer into the show ring during Friday’s 4-H Market Auction. Samantha Basinait waits with Eli before he took the big beef animal into the ring.
Eli had an animal in the auction for the first time. Dunham Farms paid $4.75 a pound for the steer, a 1,270-pound steer he named Bruce.
Mark Dunham bid on the steer and attended the auction for the first time. He wanted to support a hard-working 4-Her and paid just over $6,000.
“These kids do such a good job,” he said at the auction. “They deserved it.”
The auction was a record-breaker for the Orleans County 4-H Fair. The total winning bids totaled $213,031. That is a big jump from last year’s $139,852, which also set a new record. Before that the high was $64,128 in 2024. The total has now more than tripled in two years.
Haylee Wright, 15, of Lyndonville seeks bids for champion turkey that was already processed. Town & Country Equipment paid $500 for the turkey. Todd Jantzi, auctioneer with Bontrager Real Estate & Auction Service in Batavia, kept the auction moving and the bids going up throughout the evening.
There were 126 bidders at the auction, which was 29 more than last year.
There were also 98 lots up for sale, up from 86 the previous year.
About 300 people attended the auction, which was moved from Saturday to Friday night for the first time at the fair.
“You can see there is a lot of energy here,” Jantzi said after the auction. “It’s other businesses doing businesses with the farms and saying ‘Thank you.’”
Jantzi also serves as the market auctioneers at the fairs in Niagara, Cattaraugus and two in Erie County.
Matthew Bloom, 16, of Albion has a steer in the ring that was purchased by Keeler Construction for $7,612. Matthew said he reached out to the company, and Keeler attended the auction. Matthew said the proceeds from the auction will go into a college fund after he graduates from Albion.
The 4-Hers were credited for making connections in the community, and personally inviting people to big on the animals and fiber products.
“The kids did a great job reaching out to the bidders,” said Robert Batt, executive director of the Cornell Cooperative Extension in Orleans County.
The biggest bids of the night included $15,172 from H.H. Dobbins for a steer owned by Charlotte Bannister in Carlton and $4,448 from Watson Construction Group for a pig owned by Natalie Miller of Lyndonville.
Carissa Klossner, 18, of Clarendon models a scarf and hat she made from alpaca fibers. It sold for $275 to Lynn Vendetti of Vendetti Farms.
David Welker, 8, of Medina had two lambs in the auction, the market champion and the reserve champion. Hartland Abattoir paid $819 for the champion while Dale Root Trucking paid $600 for the reserve champ. Todd Jantzi is shown scanning the crowd for bids.
Lee Winters, owner of Genesee Feeds in Batavia, paid $12.50 a pound or $3,475 for a pig raised by Henry Dresser of Medina. Winters said the Dresser family have been long time customers.
“They’re a good family,” Winters said. “They support us and I wanted to support them.”
He usually attends five county fairs in WNY to buy an animal at the market auction.
Helen Schofield, 15, of Holley raised this pen of three chickens that sold for $175 to Enjoyable Acres. Helen was assisted in the show ring by her sister Peregrine, age 10, and friend Micah Anderson, age 12.
Schofield said she was pleasantly surprised to see larger-than0expected bids throughout the auction.
“I’m very happy,” she said about the prices. “It’s great to see the community support we have in Orleans County.”
Brody Collyer of Kendall had a steer in the auction that sold for $4,706 to Dan Dresser.
Anna Grillo, 17, of Albion leads her beef animal towards the show ring. The steer sold for $3,780 to Growmark.
Lane Miller, 9, of Lyndonville had the grand champion pig. His sister Claire, age 6, helps promote the award-winning swine animal. The pig sold for $4,417 to Pat Brennan.
Georgia Baxter, 16, of Churchville leads a dairy steer in the ring. Willow Rock Farm paid $4,635 for the animal.
4 N-O schools earn state academic honors
Four Niagara-Orleans League schools have earned special academic honors from the New York State Public High School Athletic Association.
Wilson has earned a NYSPHSAA School of Distinction Award.
Barker, Roy-Hart and Newfane have all earned NYSPHSAA School of Excellence Awards.
Schools qualify for the School of Distinction Award by having 100 percent of their varsity teams earn NYSPHSAA Scholar-Athlete Team recognition during their respective sports seasons.
To earn the School of Excellence Award, 75 percent or more of a school’s varsity teams must achieve Scholar-Athlete Team status.
The purpose of the School of Distinction and School of Excellence Awards is to unite athletic departments in challenging every varsity team to achieve statewide academic recognition through the NYSPHSAA Scholar-Athlete program.
For the 2025-2026 school year, 118 schools earned the School of Distinction Award, while 237 schools earned the School of Excellence Award. This compares to 110 Schools of Distinction and 221 Schools of Excellence during the 2024-2025 school year.
“The commitment demonstrated by our member schools to academic excellence continues to be one of the greatest strengths of educational-based athletics,” said Dr. Robert Zayas, NYSPHSAA Executive Director. “These awards recognize entire school communities that value success in the classroom as much as success in competition.”
10 local kids spend week at camp in Penn Yan

Ten local youth enjoyed a week of camping last week at Camp Long Point in Penn Yan. Andrew Szatkowski of Medina led an effort to secure scholarships and fundraising so the kids could go to camp.
Szatkowski began soliciting donations earlier in the year to pay the $2,000 needed for a bus to transport campers to and from the camp.
On Friday morning, they returned from camp, bursting with stories of camp activities.
As Ryan Howes of Lyndonville sat in his car waiting for their bus to arrive, he said four of his kids were on the bus. He said this was the first time for his son, Alex, but he wanted to do it. His children are 11, 11 (twins), 10 and 9.
He said they learned of the camp when the superintendent of Lyndonville schools put out a memo stating there was a camping opportunity.
“It was really cool that there were scholarships available,” Howes said.
One of his children had previously gone to a sheriff’s camp next door to Camp Long Pond, and came home and told everyone how much fun it was.
“She went again July 5,” Howes said. “We go to Jellystone every summer, so they are used to camping, but this was the first time on their own. Gavin, one of the twins, hesitated on the morning they left, and didn’t know if he wanted to go. Then he said, ‘OK, I’m going.’”
Bethany Zeiner of Medina greeted her son her son Matteo, 7, with open arms and a big hug as he stepped down from the bus. He attended the camp last year and liked Penn Yan, he told his mother.
This was the second year of camping for Wyatt Purnell, 10, of Medina and his brother Levi, 7, said their mother Alexandria. Wyatt’s favorite activities were Gaga ball and 9 Square. Levi also liked Gaga ball and sleeping in a cabin.
“That was really cool,” he said.
Szatkowski was grateful for the community support when he was raising money for the transportation.
“When I was in Hoag Library to sign kids up, people were coming up to me with checks. Community Action also helped, he said.
He stressed the importance of giving to The Salvation Army’s annual Red Kettle Campaign in Orleans County.
“Those donations all stay in Orleans County and help fund programs like this,” Szatkowski said.
Szatkowski added he hopes more children will take advantage of the camping opportunity next year.
