ew York City’s political agenda, the Common Core school standards, tax rates and business regula- Ntions are all dragons in need of slaying by state senators, at least according to a debate this week (Tuesday, Oct. 14) between incumbent Democratic Sen. Terry Gipson and challenger Republican Sue Serino. Gipson is also on the Working Families line while Serino has the endorse- ment of the Conservative Party. Sponsored by the Dutchess County Association of Real- tors (DCAR) for their members, the breakfast debate took place at the Dutchess Golf Club in Poughkeepsie. Before the debate began the DCAR legislative chair gave a report on the group’s Albany agenda, which accounted for a some- what narrower scope of questions for the candidates. Both Serino and Gipson appeared tense during the near hour of questions from a panel of DCAR members who also took written questions from the (Continued on page 3) Surrounded by autumn colors on Route 9D in Cold Spring Photo by Gerry Butler

Letters to the Editor Eureka for treasured leaves October 14, 2014

Publisher To the editor: Philipstown Info Inc. Eureka! Pamela Doan’s article, “Leaves — Nuisance or Treasure,” is an important and informative piece that needs to be heard throughout the land. As I reflect upon Managing Editor the quiet, serene and golden autumns of the pre-leaf blower days, I wonder why our Kevin E. Foley modern suburban hates leaves so much? I urge any of you out there to honor Ms. Doan’s suggestions for an alternative to the Arts/Feature Editor “thundering whine” as you ready your property for winter. If you hire someone to do Alison Rooney this work, please forbid them to use those polluting machines. Give your neighbors a break!
