Greetings to my friends and neighbors of Fulton’s Second and Third wards. I am extremely pleased to share with you great news. My close friend, Jim Rice, has announced his intentions to run for the office of Oswego County Legislator, District 22, which covers the Second and Third Wards and a section of southeast Granby.
The Oswego City Council has the important task this week of deciding what offer to except on the sale of the Cahill/Coleman building. This venerable old circa 1828 stone structure on the river at the foot of West Seneca Street has been in foreclosure and litigation since 2010, while it sadly deteriorates. I hope they will only consider an offer that will preserve the building. It will be good for the whole community.
The Oswego City Police Department has conducted checkpoints along various locations of Route 104 on Aug 23, 28, 29, 30 and September 6. The reason given for these checkpoints is to look for registration and seatbelt violations. Checkpoints that are deemed constitutional in the United States consist of DUI checkpoints (in 39 states, NY included), border crossing checkpoints, and TSA checkpoints. Any other type of police checkpoint, except in extreme circumstances, is an unconstitutional tactic used to ensure compliance with a given law.
Good morning Chief Rossi, My name is Jeff Wallace. I am a 63 year old resident in the Town of Oswego. I have spent many years in the profession of law enforcement and 26 years of military service. This message is not to criticize in any way your department. Please understand that. As you know traffic stops are inherently dangerous for police officers, many of whom patrol and conduct stops alone.
I extend my sincerest thank you to everyone that graciously supported our annual Stuff-A-Bus campaign. Thanks to the generosity of so many caring community members, organizations and businesses 1,786 students received many of the supplies they need to begin the school year. From pencils and notebooks to backpacks and thumb drives, volunteers along with members of the Oswego County Teachers Association (OCTA), distributed more than 15,600 school supplies to students throughout Oswego County.
I have been a Girl Scout for 11 years and have had the most fun and have created some of the best memories of my life through scouting. I have had more opportunities as a Girl Scout than I would ever have imagined. I have camped a lot, earned badges and sold delicious Girl Scout Cookies, of course, but Girl Scouts is so much more than those activities.
