Lonergan to leave as Cazenovia district teacher

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

To the Cazenovia community: It is with a heavy heart that I write this letter to inform the Cazenovia community that I will be leaving the Cazenovia School District next year. I have accepted a position as an eighth grade social studies teacher in the Fayetteville-Manlius School District.

Brewery will benefit Cazenovia community

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

To the editor: I am a close neighbor of the proposed brewery on Route 13. My dog and I walk on the trails at Lorenzo and Fairchild Hill every morning and most afternoons. And while my morning view to the south will be a bit different once the brewery is built and the hops are growing, I am firmly convinced that this change will benefit the Cazenovia community.

AD team thanks community for support

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

To the editor: The Cazenovia Academic Decathlon Team would like to thank the following businesses and individuals for their generous support. Without the donations made, we would have never been able to go to Nationals in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The generosity and thoughtfulness of the community is both inspiring and greatly appreciated.

Summer residents have every right to oppose brewery

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

To the editor: In a recent letter to the editor, Jonathan Phillips attacked people who oppose a brewery at the south end of the lake. He claimed that a beer factory will be a “valuable asset” that will “enhance and project Cazenovia's allure.” I find his concept of allure astonishingly inclusive and his faith positively touching and I do hope all his beliefs prove true.

Concerned about Empire brewery financing

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

To the editor: It is very unfortunate that the discussion about the proposed brewery is being characterized by some Cazenovians as a “them vs. us” situation. People objecting to Empire's brewery proposal per se are not doing so because they are against change.

Small minority of brewery opponents not about best interests of Caz

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

To the editor: Few potential additions to Cazenovia have come with such an overwhelmingly positive outlook as the suggested brewery, while also having the strong resistance of a few residents. As a longtime resident and firm believer in our community, it is hard for me to sit back and watch as the small group of opposition takes aim at a project which will be such a valuable asset to our community.

Let’s have open discussion on Gothic Cottage future

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

To the editor: Thanks Frolic Taylor for your letter imploring more thought and input from the community prior to allowing a wonderful example of period architecture to be forever ruined for the purpose of progress.

Worried about the brewery project

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

To the editor: My name is Denyse Ledyard Montegut and my family is one of the oldest families in the town of Cazenovia. I own Fernwood, a house that was built by my relative Lambertus Wolters Ledyard in 1874. It borders on the proposed Empire Brewery project. I am writing because I believe that the village of Cazenovia should undertake the same level of careful consideration that L.W. Ledyard would have insisted upon before bringing a commercial venture into the heart of historic Cazenovia.

Chamber of commerce supports brewery project

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

To the editor: For more than 200 years, Cazenovia has been one of the main centers of commerce in Madison County; but with the changing marketplace we cannot continue doing business as usual. We must look elsewhere for new solutions for our changing economy.

A clear-cut case against Caz College

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

To the editor: I'm a Caz resident and a lawyer who has been litigating cases under the State Environmental Quality Review Act (SEQRA) for many years. It's not often you see a case as clear-cut as the case against Cazenovia College's proposed athletic field fence.

Gothic Cottage renovation project irresponsible

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

To the editor: Nanny Oakman is rolling over in her grave about the Cazenovia “powers that be” gutting the inside of Bob O Link. She donated this gem to our town.

Increased state aid helps school budget process

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

To the editor: Thank heavens: for once, New York State just made the Cazenovia School Board’s job a little bit easier.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

To the editor: I would like to acknowledge the great turnout of people from this community and afar who attended the artist’s reception on Friday, March 22, at The Gallery of CNY to view Eugen Doering’s extensive collection of sculptures.

CPF comments on trail access and brewery

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

To the editor: The Cazenovia Preservation Foundation’s mission is to protect historic, agricultural and natural resources in and around Cazenovia. The proposed Empire farmstead brewery project has received much recent attention. As proposed, the project appears consistent with much of CPF's mission.

Students on Peru trip upset by comments

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

To the editor: Students who traveled to Peru with the high school are very upset about some of the comments made regarding the trip. Yes, it was very upsetting that the plans were changed due to a possible threat, but the school and Mr. Dubik did an excellent job changing the itinerary so that we could still have a fun trip and an authentic cultural experience.
