Dan Segal of the Plantsmen Nursery will be speaking in Trumansburg at the Ulysses Philomathic Library tonight at 7:30 in the Melvin Community Room. The subject of his talk will be the use of native plants in the landscape. It was a weird experience reading the Trumansburg Free Press last week. Our village’s paper of record ran the top headline: Filiberto: Town Must Listen to the Village, with the subheader, “Trustee says that village does not need to coordinate with town on annexation”. The article was by Stacey Silliman, someone I haven’t seen writing [...] The lawsuit made by Geoffrey Hart against three Trumansburg Village Board Trustees, though it made great political theater in 2006 and helped his son Rordan Hart get elected to the board, has been dismissed for lack of evidence and lack of gravity. From up high, on the Main Street bridge near Gimme Coffee, or at the bottom of the Lake Street dip, you can’t see them, but getting down to creek level they’re impossible to miss. Huge numbers of minnows an inch or two long are swimming in ever tighter formations in the creek as, day after day, we go without rain.

The Trumansburg Conservatory of Fine Arts will be having its annual chicken barbecue this Saturday. They’re doing it up a little bigger this year, with a cake wheel, face-painting and music provided by Bill Gregg, who teaches guitar and banjo there. The weather is supposed to be good, so come on over, get your chicken, [...] Well, I was a little late, but I rolled down to the Fire Hall about 10:15 on Saturday morning for the second Comprehensive Plan meeting. The one last week was cancelled because of lack of attendance when, according to the Free Press, only 3 people showed. I walked in to see these people: Chris Thomas, [...] The energy conservation documentary Kilowatt Ours is playing at the Trumansburg Fire Hall in Trumansburg tonight. There is a special meeting of the Trumansburg Village Board of Trustees to discuss the Main Street Project this morning at 10:00 AM. Other business may be discussed. |
