The televised debate between state Rep. Dave Yaccarino and his chal-lenger Alden Mead on Oct. 15 posed two pointed questions designed to in-tensify the race.
When asked what is most important, experi-ence or a fresh approach, Yaccarino, seeking a third term, said, “I have four years’ experience as a state rep., I’ve served on four legislative commis-sions and have got a lot done for North Haven, but I bring a fresh approach and listen to all views.”
Mead, who has never held political office, joked, “I won’t know where to park my car when I get to the legislature. But I have a proven track record of taking on new challenges. I have relevant business experience and will bring a fresh outlook to the job.”
Mead also noted he saw a sign in a coffee shop that
helped him answer the question: “You were born an original. Don’t become a copy.”
The other key question asked was whether being a member of the majority party would be an advan-tage. Mead, a Democrat, said, “A representative from the majority party has an advantage, but the party is not as import-ant as the person. I won’t be fettered by blind alle-giance to a party.

North Haven High School students and alumni in pur-ple t-shirts honoring John Liquori met outside Vana-core Field before the foot-ball game Oct. 17. Liquori, a 20-year-old NHHS graduate, was killed in an automobile accident July 16.
The t-shirts were embla-zoned with Liquori’s favor-ite expression, “Don’t wait for the perfect moment.
Take the moment and make it perfect.”
The crowd before the game sought to make things perfect for Liquori’s family and their supporters who are raising money for the John Liquori Memorial Foun-dation, which will provide scholarships to NHHS foot-ball players, musicians and other students whose aspi-rations mirror Liquori’s.

Town treats children to Halloween events
North Haven is offer-ing two safe alternatives to trick-or-treating for chil-dren looking to celebrate Halloween.
The first is a Trunk-or-Treat to be held Saturday, Oct. 25 from 6 to 8 p.m. at the North Haven High School parking lot, 221 Elm St.
During this event, chil-dren dressed in costume, trick-or-treat by going from car trunk to car trunk to get
their bag filled with goodies. Families are asked to partic-ipate by bringing several bags of candy to the event to distribute from their own cars.
First Selectman Michael J. Freda said in a statement, “This has proved to be a fun night for families in town and we are pleased to be able to offer it again this year.”
The Trunk-or-Treat began three years ago when bad weather forced the town to cancel trick-or-treating.
Families are asked arrive before 6 p.m. and remain for the entire duration of the event, for safety reasons. There will be no car traffic during the event.
Then, on Halloween, Fri-day, Oct. 31, the Parks and Recreation Department will hold a Halloween Party from 4:30 to 6 p.m. at the Recre-ation Department, 7 Linsley St. The event is for North Haven children in preschool through grade five.
The Halloween Party will include a costume parade,
face painting, photos with the Great Pumpkin, games and refreshments, includ-ing ice cream donated by Joe’s Ice Cream. There will also be a magic and illu-sions show by “Domino The Great” at 5:15 p.m.
“This is a nice alternative, as there are many parents who do not want their small children walking around neighborhoods,” said Eileen Pettit, recreation director.
The Halloween Party is an annual tradition in town and has been held for more than
30 years.“It’s a very family-friendly
event and the community looks forward to it,” Pettit said.
To ensure no one goes home empty handed, each child will be given a bag of candy and balloon as they leave.
The Truck-or-Treat and Halloween Party are free and open to North Haven residents.
All children must be ac-companied by an adult at both events.

Flair for Hair, a Washing-ton Avenue salon, holds its 16th annual Cutting-For-A-Cure event Oct. 26 to support Promise to Feel ‘Em, a breast cancer awareness drive that encourages women to have their breasts examined.
Special prices for haircuts, stylings and chair massages will be offered and money will be donated to the fam-ily of a sixth grade girl from North Haven who suffers from Ewing’s Sarcoma can-cer. She was diagnosed in 2010 and surgery was per-formed to remove her tumor. Since then she has undergone
14 rounds of chemotherapy and six weeks of radiation. Surgery was performed again in 2013 to remove a smaller tumor and she needs another 12 rounds of chemotherapy.
The event also supports Promise to Feel ‘Em, a cam-paign started by Erica Bartol, a Black Rock resident who found a lump on her breast at the age of 30 and started a grass roots movement that spreads early breast cancer detection by encouraging women to wear lapel pins.
Joyce-Lyn Altieri, owner of Flair for Hair lost a sister to breast cancer 16 years ago and holds the Cutting-For-A-Cure event every year to support a cause. This year she will do-
nate money to a local can-cer victim and support the breast cancer detection cam-paign of a woman currently in remission.
The event takes place from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Oct. 26 at Flair for Hair, 310 Washing-ton Ave.

state has experienced seven months of private sector job growth and C. Cowles coming to North Haven has helped locally.” But Yaccarino said, “Our state is not doing well economically, there is high unemployment. So I disagree with Alden.”
In their closing statements, Mead encouraged everyone
to go out and vote, while Yac-carino highlighted his record. “I’m proud of my record and have brought in lots of money for the town,” he said. “If re-elected I will strive to do the most good for the most people.”
The debate – the 2014 Can-didate Forum – was spon-sored by the League of Women Voters and broadcast on NHTV.

“Tonight it’s about John,” Lettieri said. “But it doesn’t just happen to the immediate family. There’s a ripple effect on the community, and the community has to come to-gether to bring about public awareness.”
Money was raised at the event through food sales and a raffle, where prizes donated by 20 area merchants were given out.
Vanacore Field had Li-quori’s initials and uniform number – 41 – painted on the 41 yard lines and a “JOHN 41” sign was emblazoned on a fence at one end of the field.
Friends and former class-mates of Liquori’s gathered in front of the sign before kickoff.
Greg Vece, who graduated NHHS in 2011, a year before Liquori, and currently at-tends UConn, said “John was one of the funniest and most pleasant kids to be around. He always had his friends’ back.”
Frank Daniele, who gradu-ated with Liquori, played on the football team with him and also attends UConn. Daniele said, “He was the life of the party, very outgo-ing and everyone’s friend. He brought a smile to everyone’s face.”

Yaccarino wary of absentee ballot amendment supported by North Haven Democrats
North Haven Democrats are supporting the constitu-tional amendment question on the Nov. 4 ballot on absen-tee ballots.
The question, “Shall the Constitution of the State be amended to remove restric-tions concerning absentee ballots and to permit a person to vote without appearing at a polling place on the day of an
election?” was endorsed by the Democratic Town Com-mittee at its meeting Oct. 14.
“It will provide an oppor-tunity for the General Assem-bly to finally enact ‘no fault’ absentee balloting and early voting in the next legislative session,” said Walt Spader, the DTC chairman. “Doing so will provide greater bal-lot access for seniors and commuters.”
Democratic state represen-tative candidate Alden Mead,
said, “This is clearly an issue where voting ‘yes’ for this amendment is voting ‘yes’ for seniors and it is voting ‘yes’ for students, commuters, and busy parents. This amend-ment would allow all these categories, even those who already vote or wish to vote by absentee ballot, to be less burdened with unnecessary process.”
But Mead’s opponent in the race, incumbent state Rep. Dave Yaccarino, is wary
of the amendment. Although he supports voting rights and greater access for all vot-ers, he said the amendment, if passed by the legislature, will allow alternative forms of voting that can be danger-ous, especially Internet vot-ing. “It leaves the door open for all forms of voting, and with hacking, there is no way to track the votes and it could wreak havoc in an election,” he said. “If it wasn’t for that, I’d be 110 percent for it.”
Yaccarino said if the amendment comes up next year he’ll support it “if the legislature tightens up the language.”
Republicans tried three times to amend the resolu-tion before it was passed in May. Spader said, “Republi-cans voted against putting this question before Con-necticut voters this year and filed amendments attempt-ing to delay the question to future ballots. A ‘yes’ vote is
an opportunity to send a mes-sage to elements of the na-tional Republican Party that their discriminatory efforts to adopt voter ID laws and re-duce early voting options are undemocratic.”
Currently, to vote absen-tee, the only form of “early voting” in Connecticut, the potential voter has to sign an affidavit that they fit the cur-rent narrow statutory scheme to allow them to use an ab-sentee ballot. “The absentee ballot application process can be confusing to voters,” Spader said.
Mead said, “Democracy at any level should not be about the obstacles in place that make it difficult to vote, but rather creating the least re-strictive process to allow un-fettered ease in voting.”
Spader said, “Voters this fall should ask the candidates where they stand on this im-portant measure to improve the voting process.”

Letters to the Editor
Support for YaccarinoTo the editor:We are so fortunate to have Dave Yacca-
rino as our State Representative running for his third term. He has accomplished so much for us in these past four years. He cares about the people of North Haven and represents us well in Hartford.
Dave’s record is unparalleled, and I am happy to say he has had a 100 percent voting record over these past four years. Further, he has secured over $1 million in grants for our town.
The team of Senator Fasano and Dave Yac-carino, together with our great First Select-man Mike Freda, works so well in doing what is best for our town.
Ellie Pedalino,Past chairwoman Republican Town
Committee
To the editor:Last year as our daughter entered her se-
nior year of college, we received her tuition invoice from a local university. To our sur-prise, we noticed that the Connecticut Inde-pendent College Student Grant was not listed. For those unfamiliar with this grant, it was for Connecticut residents attending a private Connecticut college or university.
Not knowing what to do, we contacted our State Representative Dave Yaccarino. He made numerous telephone calls and by the end of the day had all the pertinent informa-tion needed to inform the university that our daughter was in fact entitled to this grant.
Dave truly takes the extra steps needed for serving the residents of this community.

Ebola responseComplications with treat-
ing Ebola patients in Amer-ica have indicated two things worthy of note. First, it is imperative that all hospitals and emergency services be prepared to handle cases of infectious disease. Secondly, even years of planning can-not foresee all difficulties.
After the West African epidemic began in August, the American response faced unforeseen problems. Em-ory University Hospital of Atlanta took in several U.S. humanitarian workers who had contracted Ebola over-seas. The hospital is one of four in the country with biocontainment units, and has trained staff for years for such a crisis. Nevertheless, it was surprised when county officials considered discon-necting Emory from sewer lines over fears of infected wastes. Then a medical trash removal company would not take items used on Ebola patients unless sterilization first. Couriers refused to drive blood samples to test-ing centers blocks away, and pizza restaurants stopped delivering anywhere in the hospital.
More startlingly, two health workers in Dal-las contracted Ebola this month from the first patient diagnosed in America. In-consistencies in hospital-em-ployee safety gear may have been the cause. This only strengthens the importance of preparing for a systematic, uniform response.
Local medical centers and services have done just that. Hartford Healthcare, which oversees locations in Meriden and Southington, disseminated a memo that identified signs of Ebola, and increased supplies of personal protection equip-ment. Dispatchers at Hunt-er’s Ambulance are asking about travel abroad if a call-er’s symptoms match the virus. Municipal officials are staying in contact with the state Department of Public Health.
Connecticut is not out-side the radius of infection. The state has a West African population and is located between major international airports in Boston and New York. On Thursday, Yale-New Haven Hospital admit-ted a patient for Ebola-like symptoms. Although this and other patients ultimately end up in larger hospitals like YNHH, they may first pass through local centers and ambulances. All must be vigilant and ready.
To act otherwise, as ar-gued by letter-writer Javier Salabarria, MD, amounts to “complacency and hubris” (R-J, 10-14). Moreover, Sal-abarria rightly calls for a greater sense of urgency in dealing with this modern epidemic. In 2014, the virus has already taken nearly 4,500 lives globally, triple the death toll from all prior Ebola outbreaks combined. Failing to meet the challenge now risks devastation to hu-manity on an international scale.
The above-mentioned letter-writer urges that U.S. officials consult with peers in Uganda and the Congo, who have successfully con-trolled past outbreaks. Sala-barria cautions that although America boasts superior medical expertise and sys-tems, even we remain unsure how best to treat and con-tain Ebola.
Thus, preparation, collab-oration, enforcement and honest appraisal of ser-vices will all be key in the shared fight against this virus, from local institu-tions to those overseas. As Salabarria closes his per-suasive letter, “If successful, our response can be used to teach future generations how a world-wide response can be orchestrated and ex-ecuted. If we are unsuccess-ful, our privileged myopic view of the world will be our downfall.”

A Constitutional question will be on every ballot in Connecticut on Election Day, Nov. 4, according to Secretary of the State Denise Merrill.
The question states: “Shall the Constitu-tion of the State be amended to remove re-strictions concerning absentee ballots and to permit a person to vote without appearing at a polling place on the day of an election?” If ratified by a simple majority of voters, the amendment would remove restrictive language on absentee voting from the state Constitution, permitting state lawmakers to change election laws to enact some form of early voting.
Currently under the Connecticut Constitu-tion Article Sixth, voting is limited to “the day
of the election” but the General Assembly is permitted to make provisions for those vot-ers who cannot appear at their polling place “…because of absence from the city or town of which they are inhabitants or because of sickness or physical disability or because the tenets of their religion forbid secular activ-ity.” If ratified, the amendment would remove that language and it would give the General Assembly greater authority to pass a law al-lowing voters to cast their ballots without having to (1) appear at their polling place on Election Day or (2) provide a reason for vot-ing by absentee ballot.
A full text of the constitutional amend-ment and accompanying explanatory lan-guage can be found at www.sots.ct.gov/vote.

Children’s storytimeNorth Haven Boy Scouts
and Cub Scouts distribute plastic food bags to homes in town on Nov. 1 and pick them up and deliver them to the Congregational Church Nov. 8 during the 26th annual Scout-ing for Food drive.
North Haven is one of five towns in the Sleeping Giant District participating in the event, which is part of the na-tional Boy Scouts of Amer-ica Good Turn for America program.
The program addresses the issues of hunger, homeless-ness and poor health in the country.
Jim Racca, the chairper-son of the event and an adult Scout leader in Meriden, said more than 100 North Haven scouts will participate in the drive. He said North Haven scouts will collect some 3,000 to 3,500 pounds of food, with 36,000 pounds collected in all five towns.
Residents should pack
non-perishable food items in the bags and the scouts will deliver them to the Congrega-tional Church, which operates a food pantry.
Rev. Scott Morrow said the foods are used for Thanks-giving and Christmas holiday food drives.
Residents in need of food should contact the Commu-nity Services department.
A Cub Scout troop will sort food at the church on Nov. 19
in preparation for the Thanks-giving food drive, Morrow said.
Residents should leave bags of food outside their front door or at their mailbox by 9 a.m. on Nov. 8.
If you miss the pick-up you may bring food to the Congre-gational Church at 28 Church St. and scouts will meet your car and carry your food dona-tions into the church, where they will be sorted.

Linda Schwartz, the recently con-firmed assistant secretary of veter-ans affairs for policy and planning in the U.S. Department of Veterans Af-fairs, addressed a large group of nurs-ing students at the Quinnipiac Center for Medicine, Nursing and Health Sci-ences on the North Haven campus Oct. 9.
“Healing the Wounds of War,” the theme of Schwartz’s discussion, fo-cused on the health issues American veterans face and the important role nurses play in treating them.
“Nursing makes a big difference in the landscape of the nation and the heart of nurses is to make things bet-ter,” Schwartz said. “The responsibility to care for veterans and their widows and orphans is the mantra as we go forward.”
Schwartz focused on the wounds of war from WWII to Iraq and Afghan-istan, from the nuclear fallout after WWII to a variety of maladies to-day’s veterans face, from post-trau-matic stress disorder and other mental health issues to infectious diseases and military sexual trauma, which she said 23 percent of female soldiers have reported.
“Healing the wounds of war has changed dramatically with the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan,” she said. “Vet-erans come back with high rates of
physical illness, a risk of suicide, do-mestic violence and unemployment.”
She said Connecticut veterans ben-efit from a new program that is unique in the nation. The CT Military Support Program provides free counseling and mental health services for veterans and family members that is confiden-tial and locally available. Three thou-sand-five hundred veterans have taken advantage of it to date by calling a toll-free number.
“I hope we can enlist your help in this effort,” Schwartz said as she com-pleted her remarks, encouraging stu-dents to be dedicated to providing good health care to veterans and their families who need it.
Kory Tobias, a QU junior nursing student, said, “The veteran population is often forgotten and they do much for our country. So having someone advo-cate for them is awesome.” Tobias said she works at the Whitney Senior Cen-ter, where she cares for war veterans.
Lisa Guerrieri, a QU nursing profes-sor who worked at St. Raphael Hospi-tal as a medical surgical nurse, said, “I made an assumption that everyone was covered, and didn’t realize there was a tier. We have some work to do in this country to give our vets better service, they deserve it.”
Guerrieri said her cousin, Joey, is a Vietnam vet “who came back and was never the same. And he’s home-less now. It’s a sacrifice knowing you might not come back or come back the same.”

This economic development tax incentive program shall be available to man-ufacturing, storage, warehousing, distribution, office, information technology, and recreational facilities and transient residential businesses limited to hotels with or without an interior or attached restaurant(s), locating to or located in all areas of the Town of North Haven. The program shall not apply to residential developments, retail businesses, or restaurants.
2. Applications will only be accepted for improvements to real property. This Article does not provide for tax incentives on personal property.
3. If multiple uses are proposed or operating at the real property involved (e.g. office and retail), the tax incentives offered herein shall only apply to new construction or expansion related to the qualifying uses identified in § 184-30.B.1. above.
4. Applicants are encouraged to consider and make a good faith effort, to the extent feasible, to utilize Town residents and Town based businesses during both the construction and operation phases.
§ 184-31. Application and Review Process and Tax Incentive Agreement.Based upon approval of this Article by the legislative body of the Town of North Haven,
the Assessor of the Town of North Haven will initially determine an applicant’s eligibility for the economic development tax incentive program and verify the total cost of real property improvements and the Board of Selectmen of the Town of North Haven may exercise the Town’s statutory authority under Connecticut General Statutes Section 12-65b to enter into an agreement with an eligible applicant fixing the assessment of the applicant’s real property.
A. Application and Review Process.Applications for economic development tax incentives set forth below in § 184-32
for development projects limited to new construction and expansion, shall be submit-ted to the Assessor for the Town of North Haven on forms prepared by the Assessor.
Applications for economic development tax incentives must be submitted prior to construction of any proposed new structure or in the case of an expansion, prior to construction of an addition(s) to an existing building(s).
The Assessor will review all applications and initially determine an applicant’s eligibility. If eligibility is determined in an applicant’s favor, the Assessor will submit a recommendation and writ-
ten analysis to the Board of Selectmen along with a draft tax incentive agreement for its consideration.B. Tax Incentive AgreementUpon receipt and review of the Assessor’s recommendation and written analysis and
the draft tax incentive agreement, the Board of Selectmen shall vote to approve the tax incentive agreement with the terms recommended by the Assessor or vote to deny the tax incentive agreement. In the event of approval, the Board of Selectmen shall also au-thorize execution of the tax incentive agreement by the First Selectman. Nothing in this Ordinance shall require the Board of Selectmen to approve any tax incentive agreement.
In the circumstance where the lessee is the applicant, the real property owner and the lessee must execute the tax incentive agreement.
The tax incentive agreement shall be expressly contingent upon the verification of the total cost of improvements by the Assessor when the qualifying real property improve-ments have reached substantial completion through review of construction contracts, payment applications, requisitions, proof of payments, certification by the applicant, and such other documentation as is requested by the Assessor to verify construction costs.
When the Assessor has verified the total cost of improvements to his/her satisfac-tion, the Assessor shall confirm such verification in writing to the real property owner and the Assessor shall have the authority to reduce the assessed value of the new con-struction or expansion in accordance with the schedule contained below in § 184-32.
§ 184-32. Schedule of Economic Development Tax Incentives.The following schedule of economic development tax incentives shall be available
based upon the total cost of improvements to real property, in the form of an adjust-ment or reduction in the assessed value of that portion of the real property comprised of the qualifying new construction or expansion, by the percentage noted:*
Total Cost of Improvements of $500,000 to $3,000,000Three (3) Year Adjustment Period
Assessment Year Adjustment Amount Net Adjusted Tax Obligation Year 1 50% 50% Year 2 30% 70% Year 3 20% 80%
Total Cost of Improvements of Greater Than $3,000,000 to $10,000,000Five (5) Year Adjustment Period
Assessment Year Adjustment Amount Net Adjusted Tax Obligation Year 1 70% 30% Year 2 60% 40% Year 3 50% 50% Year 4 30% 70% Year 5 20% 80%
Total Cost of Improvements of Greater Than $10,000,000Seven (7) Year Adjustment Period
Assessment Year Adjustment Amount Net Adjusted Tax Obligation Year 1 75% 25% Year 2 65% 35% Year 3 55% 45% Year 4 45% 55% Year 5 35% 65% Year 6 25% 75% Year 7 15% 85%
*The fair market value and assessed value of the qualifying real property improve-ments may change from year to year due to statutory revaluation or due to changes to the property, as provided by the Connecticut General Statutes.
As the above schedule suggests, at the conclusion of the adjustment period for the successive tax years, the real property owner shall be responsible for paying 100% of the real property taxes due. § 184-33. Effective Date of Adjustment.
Adjustment of assessed value shall commence on the October 1 Grand List follow-ing the verification of the total cost of improvements by the Assessor as confirmed by the Assessor in writing to the real property owner.§ 184-34. Delinquency on Obligations to The Town of North Haven.
Any applicant delinquent in any real or personal property taxes, motor vehicle taxes, sewer use charges or assessments, fees, charges, fines, interest, penalties, and/or liens to the Town of North Haven shall not be eligible for incentives unless the applicant has entered into an acceptable agreement with the Tax Collector of the Town of North Haven or the Town of North Haven to pay the delinquent taxes, sewer use charges or assessments, fees, charges, fines, interest, penalties, and/or liens and is in compliance with the terms of the agreement.
If an applicant receiving incentives becomes delinquent in any real or personal property taxes, motor vehicle taxes, sewer use charges or assessments, fees, charges, fines, interest, penalties, and/or liens to the Town of North Haven at any time during the incentive period and does not enter into acceptable repayment arrangements with the Tax Collector or the Town of North Haven or defaults upon the repayment arrangements, the incentives shall cease and the property owner shall be liable for paying not only the delinquent taxes, sewer use charges or assessments, fees, charges, fines, interest, penalties, and/or liens, but also all taxes ad-justed or reduced pursuant to the tax incentive agreement to the date of delinquency.
For the purposes of this section, delinquency shall be determined in accordance with Connecticut General Statutes Section 12-146.§ 184-35. Pay Back Period.
Applicants acknowledge that by participating in this economic development tax incentive program, a commitment is being made to the Town of North Haven by the applicant. If an applicant or property owner receiving economic development tax incentives substantially reduces its operations on its real property, attempts to assign its rights under its agreement with the Town of North Haven for tax incentives, sells or otherwise transfers the real estate involved, or declares bankruptcy during the ap-plicable three (3), five (5), or seven (7) year adjustment period identified in § 184-32, then any tax incentive benefit received by the applicant under this program shall be forfeited and the applicant shall be required to pay back all the taxes that would have been assessed had the applicant not participated in the program. However, in the cir-cumstance where a lessee is an applicant and the lessee remains and continues to do business at the real property, the tax incentive benefit shall continue. Any unpaid tax imposed pursuant to the provisions of this section shall constitute a lien upon the real property. Each such lien may be continued, recorded, and released in the manner pro-vided by Connecticut General Statutes for continuing, recording, and releasing prop-erty tax liens. In order to maintain eligibility, the Assessor of the Town of North Haven may require property owners to submit affidavits of eligibility on an annual basis.§ 184-36. Fees Not Abated.
Any fees required to obtain local permits and licenses shall not be abated, waived, reduced, or forgiven pursuant to this Article. § 184-37. Term of Economic Development Tax Incentive Program.
This Article shall take effect fifteen (15) days after publication of the Article in a news-paper having a circulation in the Town of North Haven and shall remain in effect through October 31, 2024 such that the Assessor of the Town of North Haven will not accept any applications for economic development tax incentives subsequent to October 31, 2024.
