99 NEWS FOR 12/20/12
LABAFF: ACRES IS “FULL OF MANURE,” THAT I-98 WON'T HELP FARMERS-Ernie LaBaff of Potsdam, a board member of the St. Lawrence County IDA, and the chair of a working group that resumed efforts in the late 1990's to bring a four-lane, interstate highway to the North Country; says county Farm Bureau Board Member Kevin Acres is wrong when saying farmers would benefit more from an enhanced US Route 11. LaBaff says all industries, including agriculture, would benefit from a four-lane highway. He says Acres's assertion that high-tech, knowledge-based jobs are the North Country's future, is also off-base because those jobs only go to the elite, not the everyday working-class folks who need the manufacturing-type jobs “I-98” would bring. The Farm Bureau came out in opposition to “I-98” recently. Bureau President Jon Greenwood of Canton was, at one time the county legislator representing the same district Acres now covers.
