We have had
some
inquiries
regarding the work
that is being done
around the retention pond, known as Whisper Ridge
Pond. The pond, which is still owned
by the developer, is being modified
to ensure that it meets the required
Stormwater Management Guidelines,
as set by New York State Department
of Environmental Conservation (NYS
DEC). To make the side slopes of the
pond more gradual, the banks are
being cut back. Doing this has made
it necessary to remove the pathway
that used to circle the pond. A small
portion of pathway will remain and
be deadheaded at the East side of
the retention pond (the entrance of
Whisper Ridge Circle). This area, when
conveyed to the RCA, will be Common
Property for residents to sit and enjoy
the natural beauty of the area. The
pathway that circled the pond will not
be replaced.
The Emerald Ash Borer (EAB)
is a topic that you will continue to
see information on in many upcoming issues of the Reflections. We have
already passed along information as
to what you, the homeowner, need to
know about your ash trees and the
impending infestation of the EAB.
Now, I’d like to bring you up to date
on what the RCA is doing, as the
Homeowner’s Association, about the
ash trees on Common Property. First
and foremost, we need to get an inventory of all the ash trees on our property.
As you can imagine, this will not be a
quick and easy task. It is one, however,
that we have already begun. As sections have been inventoried, you may
notice that trees have been marked
with paint and/or Inventory ID Tags.
These are a means of identifying: the
location of the ash trees; the overall
quantity of ash trees; and that quantity
broken down by size (larger than 6” in
diameter at breast height and less than
6” in diameter at breast height). We ask
that you not remove or disrupt any of
our identifying measures.
While this inventory is being done,
the RCA Board of Directors will be
compiling the RCA Management Plan
for the EAB. This will outline potential tree removals, treatments and tree
re-planting. We will continue to keep
you updated as additional information
becomes available. We also have all
pertinent information on our website,
on the Tree Resources page, under the
Architectural Standards tab.
For residents who need to dispose
of items that cannot be picked up as
part of our weekly trash service, please
remember that Dependable Disposal
does offer special pick-up of these
items for a nominal fee. You may call
them directly (472-7455) to determine
the fee and to schedule a pick-up. They
do pick-up of special items on Fridays.
Regardless of what company you hire
for this service, we ask that you not
place your item(s) out until the evening before. We have received several
complaints about residents who are
bringing items to the end of their
driveway days before they are scheduled to be picked up.
In previous issues, I’ve mentioned
updates on some of the businesses in
Radisson Corporate Park, such as the
Radisson Medical Facility on Willett
Parkway and RED-KAP Pizza and
Deli. For those that are unaware, the
Radisson Corporate Park is home to
over forty (40) dues-paying businesses
whose owners/employees are entitled
to use the same amenities as residents.
We appreciate their business location in our Corporate Park and their
continued support of our Association.

I recently met with a few owners of the Radisson Greens Golf
Course, which is also a Radisson
Corporate Park Member. We discussed the numerous improvements they’ve made after just one
year of ownership. They expect
this to be a long-term business
venture and have many other ideas
for the future. While many people
have heard about the improvements made to the golf course,
word has been slower to make
its way through the community
about the golf course restaurant,
the Radisson Ale House. In many
of the surveys that the RCA has
done over the years, one of the
items that always topped the list

The CAI-WNY is the local chapter of

also a member of. One of the items
that the CAI-WNY has been involved
in is state legislation mandating that all
community associations be required to
have certified managers. I’m pleased to
inform you that I recently received my
certification as a Certified Manager of
a Community Association (CMCA).

Dear Editor,
1. Forty one years of experience in
heavy and highway construction, fleet
maintenance, private sector business
management and military leadership.
2. SUNY A.A.S Degree in Civil
Technology
3. U.S. Army ANCOC and SGLTC

make up our community. In the spring
of this year, I interviewed with our
local Republican committee for one of
the two nominations for Town Board,
but failed to get enough votes to be
in the top 2. I was unable to Primary
their nominations myself because I
registered too late in 2012 to be an
“official” Republican Party member
in 2013. This summer, I was asked
by a Democratic committee member
if I would consider interviewing for
Town Clerk on the Democratic line. I
accepted the opportunity to interview
at their caucus in August. I was nominated by the 20-plus Democrats that
attended their local caucus in August
for Town Clerk, but there was a filing
error on the committees’ behalf, and
the caucus was nullified by the County
Board of Elections. After a legal contest, the Board of Elections decision
was upheld, so there will be no local
Democratic nominees this November.
Even with this setback, I still decided to run a write-in campaign. I was not
running for only Democrats, but for all
the voters and citizens of Lysander to
have a choice when they go to the polls
on November 5th. This means in order
to vote for me, you will have to write-in
my name in the section for Town Clerk
where it says write-in on your ballot.
You may ask for assistance when you
go to vote, if unsure of how to properly
write-in. Though I do not have the
“on-the-job” experience my opponent
has, I feel I have the skills required to
effectively handle the tasks of Town
Clerk through my various work experiences. I would also like to make the
Town Clerk office hours more accessible for people by extending evening hours and/or Saturday hours. I
have held positions where I have been
an Operations Manager who oversaw
50-plus employees and I am currently
the manager of my division at Solvents
& Petroleum Service, Inc. in Syracuse.
If you would like to get to know me
before you vote, I will be running a
“Meet and Greet” at the Baldwinsville
Public Library Large Group Room on
Sunday, November 3rd from 1PM to
4PM. Mike Rockdashil, who is running a write-in campaign for Town
Board, will also be in attendance. I can
also be reached via e-mail at: rodeforprogress@yahoo.com.
Regardless of who you vote for,
I would like to ask people to exercise their right to vote on November
5th. The last few years seem to have
brought more people out to the polls in
our town and I feel it’s because people
have a choice, rather than just one
political group and their candidates.
I would be honored to serve the citizens of Lysander as their Town Clerk.
Thank you for your time.
For those residents who don’t
already know me, please include the
following list of experience and skills
in your upcoming election edition:
Dear Residents,
For those who may not know me,
allow me to introduce myself. My
name is Kevin Rode. I am 37 years old,
and have resided in Lysander all but 2
years of my life. I have attended almost
every Town Board meeting since 2011,
so I feel I am up to date on the issues
facing Lysander. I am running a writein campaign in hopes of being elected
by the voters for the position of Town
Clerk. I am registered as a Republican,
but I will work diligently for all citizens of Lysander.
Some people may remember me
from 2011, when I asked people to
sign my petition to be able to run on
my own party line for the position
of Town Supervisor. Even though I
received only a few hundred votes, it
was a great experience. By going door
to door and talking to various people,
I learned a lot about the people that

Architectural Standards Committee (ASC)
Completed ASC Projects
Have you finished
an exterior project on your home
this year? If so, did
you remember to
notify the Architectural Standards
Committee (ASC)?
We ask you to notify the ASC by
either returning the window sign to the
RCA office or e-mailing the ASC at
asc@radissoncommunity.org . We will
also do a quick review to verify it was
completed as approved. If your project
was completed as approved, we will
send you a letter indicating so and we
will close out your open application in
our computer system.
Notifying the ASC will greatly help
the ASC staff from trying to determine
if you have completed your project or
if you would like an extension to complete your project.

Nursery School News
A Day in the Life of a Preschooler........
So many fun activities...so little time!!
The children practiced their fine motor skills by hammering golf tees into
the pumpkins they picked at the Hollows. Mrs. Cali then
used the pumpkins for a bowling game, and the children
were able to see how many different things we are able
to do with a pumpkin. Mrs. Simiensyk’s 4 year olds have
been practicing their writing skills by copying Halloween
words. It is so much fun to see how proud they are of
mastering a new letter. “Me and My Special Guy Night”
is always a special time at school. The 4 year olds came
dressed in their pajamas and made spooky haunted houses
with their fellas. They taught their guests a few songs,
and everyone had a spooktacular night! Our 2 year olds
are hooked on our Pete the Cat books, and are memorizing some of the words. The 3 year olds learned
a song about spiders, and snuck up
on Mrs. Ferrigan in her office to yell
“Boo!” They squealed with delight
when she jumped out of her chair.

Radisson’s Halloween Party
We had a spooktacular time at this
year’s
Halloween
parties at the Aspen
House. With over 70
children in attendance we saw a wide
array of great costumes! There were
plenty of treats, but no tricks, to go
around! Attendees played games, made
crafts, visited with Sue Campanella to
get their face painted and filled up on
goodies!!
Thanks to Elaine Ceresko, Sue
Dietrich, Jeanine Downes, Sharon
Hayford, Sue Norpell & Julie Raddell
from the Recreation Committee who
helped out with the set-up, parties and
clean up this year. Also, a huge thank
you to our youth volunteers: Kate,
Ryan, Andrew, Julia, Hannah, Lauren,
Alex, Natalie, Kyle & Sam for helping
out with the photography, games, arts
& crafts table and clean up.
Hope to see everyone again next

Ways & Means Committee Update
Brian F. May, Onondaga County Legislature – 1st District
As a member of
the Legislature’s
Ways & Means
Committee,
I
wanted to share
some general thoughts, goals and concerns as we enter the home stretch of
the 2014 budget review process.
Last year, my colleagues and I took
an Executive Budget featuring a $1
million increase to the 2013 property tax levy and reduced it $7 million dollars below the prior year. This
was accomplished with heavy scrutiny,
strategic use of reserves for one-time
capital expenses and improved fiscal
policies.
In addition to last year’s historic
tax cut, the budget featured structural
reductions in the cost of government
without affecting essential services or
the County’s third-best bond rating
in New York. While strong bond ratings indicate a well-run government,
the measurable benefit to taxpayers is
low-cost debt service, which translates
to lower tax bills.
For obvious reasons, taxpayers
also benefit when the executive and
legislative branches of government
are the same page. To her credit,
County Executive Mahoney delivered
a proposed budget that picks-up right
where the Legislature left off—with no
increase to the tax levy and an ambitious proposal to enhance the efficiency of the County’s largest departments
without increasing costs.
The final 2014 budget approved
by the Legislature will represent a
collaborative effort to optimize fewer
resources to keep taxes low, create jobs
and improve the economy. From my
standpoint, this approach will leave
more in the bottom lines of businesses
and households, which benefits the
economy and our quality of life.
The final budget will also reflect
strategies to fund future debt service
required for necessary capital projects
and infrastructure maintenance--the
jails are overcrowded and our sewers
are getting very old.
This year, Township5, Agrana and
Ultra Dairy will result in more than
1,000 new jobs. The 2014 budget will
include enhanced support and resources to continue the County’s momentum in economic development. We will
also increase investments in tourism
and convention marketing, which are
proven to provide exponential returns
for taxpayers.
Last, but not least, the final 2014
budget will likely feature higher levels
of accountability for local tax dollars
spent throughout the year by County
departments and affiliated agencies.
Now that you know thoughts for
the 2014 budget, don’t hesitate to ask
me about them the next time you see
me around town.

New Life Jacket Requirement for Boaters
Effective
November 1st, all
occupants of any
vessel, less than 21
feet, must wear life
jackets when underway upon the waters
of New York State. This requirement
covers all ages. By all vessels, the law
means anything that floats and is
designed to carry a person or persons.
Inclusive is all forms of propulsion;
motor electric & internal combustion,
sail, and by manual means (paddle or
oar).
The last day of the requirement is
Midnight, May 1st . However, if after
that date the water is so cold that you
would be unwilling to go for a swim in
it, continue to wear a life jacket. Even
though the air temperature may seem
warm, the water temperature is still
cold and poses a grave drowning risk
should you have an unplanned entry
into the water. The US Coast Guard
bases their wearing of protective
exposure upon both air and water temperature. If one or the other is below
safe minimums, the Coast Guard suits
up in their “Mustangs”.
Should the vessel capsize, more
often than not, a life jacket which is not
worn is the life jacket which has floated
downstream and away from you. Also,
if the water is still very cold, you will
tend to gasp for air when you become
immersed. Studies by the principal
Coast Guards of the World report that
people who fall into cold water risk
ingesting up to a liter of water into
their lungs and drowning.
If you go into the water, stay with
your vessel. Do your best to get out of
the water. You will rapidly lose body
heat the longer you stay in the water.
The formula is: One (1) minute to get
your breathing under control, Ten (10)
minutes to get out of the water before
you lose your ability to think clearly
and maintain control of your ability to
move your limbs, One (1) hour before
hypothermia sets in and death occurs.
Be smart. Wear your life jacket.
