We're Back!!!!
Yes it has been a long time since we
posted information to the website. Some of that was due to
personal time constraints but most of it was because of the absolute
radio silence from the developer. For a long time we waited
for the developer to submit plans to the mediation sessions.
That delay was over a year and the developer decided to broadcast
the changes to the press before reviewing them at mediation.
Then the developer called an end to the mediation sessions insisting
they wanted to go directly to Adjudication. That was 16 months
ago and now after just submitting the application to the DEC the
developer again wants an approved project.
This has been the mode of operation since the beginning. Enter
into the permitting process and when it is not approved go away for
months / years and then make a small insignificant change and ask
for a completed application again. Then when it is not
approved - cry foul and blame everyone except yourself.
In the mean time the mud slinging continues in the papers and a
group of local business men have organized to re-open Big Tupper Ski
area. We applaud the efforts of the ARISE group in organizing
volunteers and operating the ski slope. We wish they just did
not have to sling so much mud about those who still have open
questions about the project. Questions that have been asked
and not answered for - well - let's count - 6 years!!
We will post more about the recent
developments, news articles and documents submitted by the applicant
over the coming weeks. Stay tuned and visit often for updates. |

Happy Thanksgiving: Two things to
report today.
Article 78 Hearing: On
Friday, November 21st the Office of the Attorney General's
Environmental Protection Bureau filed a "Friend of the Court" legal
brief and argument with the Appellate Division, Third Judicial
Department in Albany on behalf of the Department of Environmental
Conservation. You can read the brief in the "APA Documents"
section or the "News Articles" Section. By the way - that
makes 400 postings in our news articles now.
Also there was an update from Dan McClelland in today's Free Press
clarifying that Mike Foxman will still be the primary project
sponsor and Tom Lawson will lead the actual development building.
That article also indicated that there are now 4 partners in the
project which include Mike Foxman, Tom Lawson, Jim Treadwell and one
other not named.
See our new addition to the site: Tupper Pictures to keep you warm
all winter in the "About TLLOWEB" page. |
