“Christmas in July”


From The Executive Director Written by Lynn Tanner

in this issue of the Reflections we are devoting pages 6 and 7 to infor-mation related to

animals, both domestic and wild. Our office has received several calls of concern regarding both and this is the best venue to answer them for everyone.

One of the issues we’ve received complaints from residents is dog owners unleashing pets to run free in common areas, such as Kerri Hornaday Park. several times those dogs were too far from their owner to be under ‘voice command’ and lunged at a child or adult. Even if you believe your dog to be friendly towards peo-ple and other animals, other residents (adult or child) may be fearful of your pet. On Page 6, Dan Boccardo, Town of Lysander Dog Control Officer, answers several questions for dog owners and others with dog-related concerns, such as: licensing your dog; what is voice command; what to do if bitten by a dog and more.

An item that has been in the news lately that we also wanted to cover is the surge of ticks, due to the mild-er temperatures that we experienced this winter. We’ve asked Radisson

Corporate Park Member, Dr. spindel of The Animal Ark Veterinary hospital, to advise pet owners on how to keep your pet safe from ticks. Also includ-ed in Dr. spindel’s article on Page 7, is what do should your pet get bitten by a tick.

Lastly, we’ve had reports about a red fox and her kits taking up temporary residence on property nearby. With the abundance of natural landscaping in the community, we tend to have sightings of several types of wildlife. We have contacted the Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) about this. While it is likely the den will move on, we are passing along some valuable tips provided by DEC and Cornell Cooperative Extension on Page 7, on how to safely and peace-fully coexist with the animals.

The Radisson Nursery school recently concluded its school year, with its annual Circus (for the 4’s) and a trip to the Burnett Park Zoo (for the 3’s). i’d like to thank Terri Ferrigan, Nursery School Director, and her wonderful staff for another great year! The Radisson Nursery school is always spoken of in the highest regard and is known as one of the best in the area, mainly due to the combined efforts of these women. Next year, the

program is offering classes for children that are two, three or four years old. The staff is thrilled to report that all classes for the 2013-2014 school year are presently filled. They are happy to place your name on a waiting list and will notify you immediately if and when an opening becomes available. For any questions regarding registra-tion please call Terri Ferrigan at 635-2815.

As of the printing of this paper, construction on the Route 370 bridge over the Seneca River is scheduled to begin on Monday, June 17. The project is expected to continue through the fall. The traffic plan dur-ing construction, as per the New York state Department of Transportation’s website (https://www.dot.ny.gov) is due to be as follows:

-The bridge will accommodate one-way eastbound traffic each week-day until 3 p.m. and each week night beginning at approximately 6:15 p.m., as well as 24/7 on weekends. During these hours, westbound drivers will be directed to follow the detour using John Glenn Boulevard, Onondaga County Route 57, state Route 31 and state Route 631.

-One-way westbound traffic will be accommodated each weekday between

the hours of 3:15 p.m. and 6 p.m. These are the busiest westbound commut-ing hours. Eastbound traffic will be directed to use the detour along state Routes 631 and 31, County Route 57 and John Glenn Boulevard.

-The bridge will be closed to all traffic each weekday from 3 p.m. to 3:15 p.m. and again between 6 p.m. and 6:15 p.m. so that traffic control devices can be set up to accommodate the new direction of travel. All motor-ists will be directed to use the detour during these short periods.

-Emergency vehicles will be able to use a signal pre-emption system to travel in any direction needed, at any time of day.

As announced at this year’s Annual Meeting i would like to extend Congratulations and Welcome to our newest board members Doug Beachel and Bill Lester. i’d also like to congrat-ulate Directors Jay Caporriccio and John Vinquist who were re-elected to serve their second, two-year term. i would also like to extend a heartfelt thank you to the following members who are no longer on the board, for their time and service to the commu-nity: Luanne Christensen and Colleen Roche.

The Planning & Amenities Committee would like to thank everyone that stopped by during the River Park Grand Opening. Many residents tried their hand at using a paddleboard or taking a kayak trip on

the seneca River, thanks to Camillus Kayak Shop. Tim Horton’s was on hand serving iced drinks to those in attendance. The United State Coast Guard Auxiliary, Flotilla 2-1, distributed safety information

to boaters. Cooper’s Marina had a Four Winns boat on display and raffled off a gift certificate to their marina store. Congratulations to the winner, harriet Mark! Also in attendance were Onondaga County Legislator Brian

May, Onondaga County sheriff’s Nautical Patrol and the Belgium-Cold spring Fire Department.

Please forward this completed form by June 28, 2013 to: Stephen Buechner, Landscape Architect, Planner, Barton & Loguidice, P.C., 290 Elwood Davis Road; Box 3107; Syracuse, New York 13220 or email to: [email protected]

Notice to Radisson Residents, Business Owners, Lysander, NY etc.The Committee to study the feasibility of developing a Towne Center on the 78 acre site bounded by: Willett Parkway on the east, West Entry Road on the north and Loop Road on the west, is interested in your input for this project. Some of the possible uses that are being considered are listed below. We would appreciate your response to the following by June 28, 2013:

There is a renewed interest in build-ing a Radisson Towne Centre. The first proposed Town Center was part of the Radisson Master Plan, prepared by Reimann Buechner Landscape Architects, Planner in 1974. The infra-structure (sewer, water and roads were built) but the project didn’t progress, because the County of Onondaga cut the funds, in the late 70’s to acquire the land for the road into the site from the interstate highways, that would have made the project feasible as a retail

complex. The original Towne Center was plan to be accessed from the northeast intersection of West Entry Road and Willett Parkway. The area is now built-out as Greymour and Town Center Roads (and the project highland Greens, Park Center condos). The Towne Centre was to be one of the early features in Radisson.

stephen Buechner, Landscape Architect (now Associate Vice President of Barton & Loguidice, P.C., Engineers, Landscape Architects, Planners and scientists), who led the design and implementation of most of the Radisson housing, industrial, rec-reation sites between 1974 and 2005, is coordinating this effort.

At this point in the planning stages we are looking for input from the Radisson Community, Lysander NY:

The Radisson Community now has 8,000+ residents and 2,394 employees at various industrial and commercial sites; total 10,394 people, 2,720 homes, and 40 businesses/manufacturing sites. The nearest shopping facilities, etc., are located on Route 31 and NYs Route 57 in Clay and in the Village of Baldwinsville. An opportunity has been presented to develop a program, design and build a new Towne Centre on the 78 acre site presently owned by EsDC; this is the site bounded by Willet Parkway on the east, West Entry Road on the north, and Loop Road on

the west. The project site was recently re-zoned from industrial to commer-cial/retail. We are seeking to engage a developer to assist in a program that will result in a Towne Centre to make Radisson a truly neo-traditional, sus-tainable community, fully realizing the vision of Radisson as a mixed-used community.

Please assist us with this effort, now in the early stages of feasibility/plan-ning, by adding your comments to the program form enclosed, and returning it to the Planning Committee for the Radisson Towne Centre.

if you have any questions please contact stephen Buechner at 315-263-1936.

i want to thank the RCA for this oppor-tunity to provide

some information for the Radisson Reflections newsletter regarding the dog control function. hopefully residents will gain a better under-standing regarding dog control laws, and duties of the Lysander Dog Control office and how it oper-ates. it’s important to know that local dog control is driven by the NYs Agriculture and Markets Law, section 7. Part of this law states that each town, village and city where dog licenses are issued shall appoint one or more Dog Control officers to assist with the control of dogs and the enforcement of Article 7. in addition to Article 7, the Town of Lysander also adopted local laws found in Chapter 55 of the Town of Lysander General Code. section 55 specifically addresses dog control laws within Lysander in response to the requirements of Article 7.

The Dog Control office is locat-ed at the Lysander offices at 8220 Loop Road off Route 31. The office is staffed by 2 part-time officers and is NOT a 24x7 operation. if you believe an emergency situation has occurred, such as a vicious dog attack, please call 911 for immediate assistance. if you need to contact the office for routine (non-emergency) dog control issues please call 315-857-0288. The following questions and answers address some of our residents most common concerns regarding dog control laws and pro-cedures in the Town of Lysander. These questions and answers will also help those not acquainted with the dog control laws to get an understanding of some common issues regarding situational func-tions of the dog control office and what to do if a similar event hap-pens to you.

Q & A:Q: My neighbor’s dog barks

constantly and the noise is so loud that I can’t sleep or rest when I’m at home. What can you do about it?

A: section 55-10 of the Lysander

Town Code prohibits dogs that “Engage in habitual and contin-uous loud howling, barking, cry-ing or whining so as to unreason-ably annoy other persons”. if you believe this to be the case, you must file a formal complaint with the Lysander Dog Control office. We will then take action to resolve the issue peacefully, and if necessary, escalate our response until a sat-isfactory resolution is reached. We always recommend as a first step to talk directly to your neighbor and let them know your concern. Most times these types of issues can be worked out between conscientious neighbors.

Q: An unleashed dog was roaming through my yard, and without warning or provocation the dog bit my child. When I tried to catch the animal it ran away. What should I do?

A: First, seek medical attention for your child and then call 911 to report the incident as soon as pos-sible. This animal is a direct threat to public safety and requires an immediate response from police. if possible, write down all pertinent details for police such as time of attack, where attack occurred, type, size and color of dog, direction dog was going and any other informa-tion that will help police locate and seize the animal as quickly as possible. The Lysander dog control office is not an emergency response function; however, if the dog is licensed we can assist in locating and contacting the dogs’ owner(s).

Q: I found a dog on my prop-erty that appeared to be lost or abandoned. The dog did not have any identifying tags or a collar. What should I do?

A: Call the Lysander dog control office at 315-857-0288. This office will arrange for the dog to be picked up and transported to the s.P.C.A. since the office is only staffed on a part time basis, it’s important to leave a message with your name, address, and a phone number where you can be reached. Messages are retrieved daily and depending on the time of day you report the inci-

dent you will normally get a call back the same day.

Q: I spotted a dog roaming through my yard and I’d like to report it. Who should I call?

A: it is unlawful for a dog to freely roam about without a leash or owner close by. Please call the dog control office at 315-857-0288 to report the incident. We will follow up on the report and if necessary seize the dog and transport it to the sPCA.

Q: I recently moved to Lysander but my dog was licensed in the town where we formerly lived. Do I need to do anything in Lysander?

A: Yes. Dogs that have been licensed in another NYs jurisdic-tion and move to Lysander must now be licensed in Lysander. You need to license the dog at the Town Clerk’s office. The Clerk’s office is open Monday thru Friday, 9am – 4:30pm. The phone number is 315-638-0224. More information is available on the website at the Town Clerk’s page.

Q: My friend moved and could not take his dog to his new home. He gave the dog to me and the dog is already licensed in the Town of Lysander. Do I need to do anything?

A: Yes. According the Lysander Code Chapter 55, section 6, “No license shall be transferable”. upon the transfer of owner-ship of any dog, the new owner should apply for a license for the dog within 10 days after the date of transfer. Please contact the Town Clerk’s office for details on licensing the dog.

Q: I took my child to the park to play and there was an individual there with his dog. The dog was unleashed and was running around chasing a Frisbee. Isn’t this against the law?

A: Not really. if the dog is licensed in Lysander and the dog is “Accompanied by its owner or other responsible person and under such person’s full and immediate control by voice com-

mand”, then it is permissible by law as long as there is no threat to public safety. however, good judg-ment from dog owners is necessary because children need to be able to play in our parks without fear from dogs running unleashed near play areas.

Q: How much does it cost to license my dog?

A: The fee structure for licensing is as follows:

1. if a dog is spayed or neutered the cost is $7.50. (must provide cer-tificate)

2. if a dog is not spayed or neu-tered the cost is $15.50.

The Town Clerk will issue a license if you have proof that the dog has valid rabies shots. The license is renewable each year as long as the dog’s shots are current. Please con-tact the Town Clerk’s office at 638-0224 or visit our web site for more information.

i hope Lysander residents find this information useful. if you own a dog please take a few minutes to read Chapter 55 of the Lysander Code so you understand what is expected from responsible dog owners. Please go to www.townof-lysander.org where you can find the Town of Lysander Code, or if you need additional information you can send an email to me at [email protected].

Dog Control Information for Radisson ResidentsDan Boccardo, Dog Control Officer


here in R a d i s s o n we are

lucky. A beautiful community, with lots of nature trails, tree lined walks, lovely landscaping. Nature is all around us, and wildlife is close by. until recently ticks and tick borne illness were some-thing we largely avoided. This is not true today. Once seen only in Eastern Onondaga county, ticks and tick borne illnesses are now endemic in all areas of the county. This sounds dire, but there are things you can do to protect your pets, and yourself.

The main ticks found locally are the Rhipicephalus sanguineus or Brown Dog Tick, and the ixodes scapularius or Deer Tick. The Deer tick can be found in wooded areas where deer and rodents are prevalent. Dog Ticks prefers overgrown meadows and grassy areas.

Ticks rely on a ‘host’ for their food

supply during specific life stages. When they are immature the Dog ticks rely on rodents, and as they become adults they look for medium sized mam-mals. The same is true for Deer Ticks, rodents are the host for the imma-ture ticks, but when they mature they look for deer. While they have their ‘favorite’ hosts, dogs, cats and humans can become a meal for a tick too. This can become more than a minor irritation. Ticks can transmit diseases such as Lyme Disease, Anaplasmosis, Ehrlichiosis and others, all serious and sometimes life threatening diseases. As a rule, ticks have to be in contact with their host for 18-48 hours to transmit disease, but this can vary.

here at The Animal Ark we have seen an increase in Lyme and other tick borne diseases over the last couple years. There are ways to make your pets, and you safe from ticks and tick borne diseases. The first defense is to use a

acaricide or repellent. Most of these are topical formulations or collars. Avoiding areas where there are known tick populations and close inspection of your pet when they have been in wooded or grassy areas is important too. Another precaution is vaccinating your pet for Lyme Disease yearly.

if you do find a tick on your pet it is important that it be removed promptly. To properly remove a tick you should use tweezers or a tick removal tool, grasp the tick firmly by the head and pull the tick out. Do not twist or quickly jerk out a tick, steady pressure is the key. Do not apply a lit match, harsh chemicals, vaseline or crush the tick. This can cause the tick to regur-gitate and expose your pet to harmful pathogens.

it is important to remember that one tick bite does not always cause tick borne illness, but all it takes is one tick bite to develop the illness. some

of the signs of a tick born illness are lethargy, fever, muscle pain, decreased appetite, lameness, discharge from the eyes or nose. Tick borne illness can be treated with antibiotics. some of the tick transmitted diseases can be quite severe and even fatal in humans.

Ticks are a part of our environ-ment. Even with environmental sprays, limiting exposure to tick habitats, and tick control products there will still be ticks. But having a multi-faceted approach to prevention will make your pet (and you) healthier and safer. if you have any questions about tick borne illness in your pets or other pet health questions, please feel free to call us at The Animal Ark Veterinary hospital, 2996 Belgium Rd. Rte 31, Baldwinsville, 635-2525.

Ticks – Keeping Your Pet SafeThe Animal Ark Veterinary Hospital

We have recent-ly received a few calls concerning a fox family liv-ing in the Radisson Area and wanted to share some informa-

tion from the NYs Department of Conservation and Cornell Cooperative Extension.

First a few facts about foxes:• Foxes are known to be seen in

nearly every county of NYs. • Foxes are much smaller than most

people think. They are about the weight of a house cat (8 – 15 lbs.)

• Their diet includes berries, mice,

voles, bird eggs, rabbits, and insects.• Mating season is in the winter

months, with most pups born in March and April. The average lit-ter size is four to six pups.

• Attacks on dogs or people are rare (unless the fox is rabid).

• A fox that is active during the day is not necessarily rabid. Most likely, it’s a healthy animal that is feeding more than usual, because of the demands of their young.

• They are a protected species in NYs.

Best practices for peaceful co- existence with foxes (and other wildlife):

• Their mere presence may frighten some people, but there is no need to panic. People can peacefully coexist with foxes in their neigh-borhood.

• Never feed wildlife. Feeding wild-life breaks down the natural fear barrier and brings wildlife closer to humans. it is this fear that keeps animals at a safe distance.

• If you see a fox or fox pup outside, do not approach it and keep chil-dren and pets at a safe distance.

• Be sure all garbage cans have a secure lid.

• Feed pets indoors. Do not leave food outdoors.

• Though most adult pets are not considered at risk, is recommend-ed practice to not leave puppies, kittens or pocket sized dogs unat-tended outside.

When to Seek AssistanceThe only time you need to seek

assistance with wildlife authorities is if an animal shows clinical signs such as disorientation, a marked increase in aggression, or a basic loss of all typical behaviors. Remember that foxes are a protected species, by NYs law. For additional information, please refer to the DEC website at http://www.dec.ny.gov/animals/9354.html or call 607-753-3095 x247.

Dahlias and Lilies for Summer-Long ColorWritten by Pat Rickard

Gardeners are always asking the question, ‘how can i provide continu-ous color in my garden?’ The next

important question must be, ‘how much sun is a specific garden area receiving?’ if the answer is ‘sunny’ for six or more hours, then Dahlias and Lilies are both considered top-notch perennials that bring color to your sunny garden all summer-long.

Lilies have been around for over 3,000 years, dating back to almost 1000 BC. Lilies pro-vide continuous sum-mer color only if sev-eral different species are planted. Asiatics flower early in summer, while Trumpets and Orientals bloom later in the sum-mer. A Lily Planting Guide can be found at www.easytogrowbulbs.com (Go to lilies to find the guide listing).

The earliest western record for Dahlias comes from physician, Francesco hernades in 1570. Dahlias were discovered in the sierra de Ajusco Range of Mexico. Dahlias bloom from mid-summer to frost. They don’t sur-vive our winters, so must be lifted after the first frost or before the end of October and stored. A comprehen-sive article on Dahlias can be found at www.standford.edu/group/dahlia (The stanford Dahlia Project).

There are many other perennials that offer color all season but lilies and dahlias are the ‘cream of the

crop’ perennials that come in many dif-ferent sizes, colors and offer their beau-ty in your homes as cut flowers. The care to have these as staples in your gardens is worth the effort to over-win-ter the dahlia tubers and to divide lilies when they need to be divided. Expand your garden choices and experiment with adding new varieties of lilies, and take on the challenge of planting the many varieties of dahlias. Gardening is all about being creative, artistic and most of all enjoyment. The reward that you’ll receive with success in planting

lilies and dahlias will be evident as they light up your gardens with the loveli-ness that they will provide.

While i’m on the subject of color in your sunny garden spaces, i’d like to thank the following garden committee members that helped me plant annuals at our RCA building sidewalk border project: Elaine Ceresko, sue Dietrich, Carol Levy and sherry Tonazzi. since salt on the sidewalk in the winter makes it impossible to plant perenni-als at this site, bright colored pansies and wax begonias add a bit of color

and provide a warm welcome to visitors and community residents coming to the office.

“No occupation is so delightful to me as the culture of earth, and no culture comparable to

that of the garden. (Thomas Jefferson)

happy Gardening!Pat Rickard

Please insure that this fee is explained to the buyer and seller as well as the purpose of the inspection. *A fifty ($50.00) dollar Planned Unit Development (PUD) form completion fee will also be charged by the RCA to the requesting party. This fee must be prepaid before completion. PUD forms are not required by the RCA and are only necessary if requested by a bank or other lender.

A Certificate of Compliance Request Form may be obtained at www.radissoncommunity.org or by call-ing the RCA Office.

REC HOURSBeginning July 1st through August 2nd, Kerri hornaday Memorial

Park will be closed to the public Mondays-Fridays from 8:30am-12:15pm. ONLY summer Recreation staff and participants will be allowed at the park during those times. This does include the upper and lower base-ball fields, the soccer field, basketball courts, Kid’s Kingdom tot-lot and pavilion. We have always closed the location of the summer Recreation program to the public for a number of reasons – safety of participants being the main concern.

We understand that this may inconvenience some of you that live near Kerri Park, but the overall safety of our participants is our main goal. Please keep in mind the Radisson Community offers many other tot-lots, two of which are still in close proximity (one behind Corlear Drive and one next to Mallard Pond). Also, please visit our Drakes Landing Park playground located at Drakes Landing and Glacier Ridge Roads.

Dear Parents:

We are very excited for the start of our summer Rec Program this year and Matt Miles, summer Rec Program Director, has great things in store for your children! While we strive to make your child's time at summer Rec fun and exciting, nothing is more important to us than the safety of your child/children.

To that end, annually, all of our summer Rec Counselors are certified in CPR and First Aid Training. in addition, this year our counselors will also be participating in a Youth safety Training Program, put on by the Onondaga County sheriff’s Department. This training will help staff to identify signs of abuse, predatory behavior in adults and how to respond in an emergency.

Additionally, one of the ways that we ensure the safety of your children is to close the lower section of Kerri hornaday Park (including the tot-lot) during the hours of summer Rec. Although it may be an inconvenience to some, it is imperative that there be no accessibility to our program and its participants. Our Program Director will ask any unapproved guest to vacate the premises. We are taking actions, which are within our control, to keep your child's time at summer Rec fun, as well as safe. if you have any concerns or questions at any time during the program, please do not hesitate to contact me or Lori McCarthy, Director of Community Programs.

sincerely,

Lynn M. TannerLynn M. TannerExecutive Director

NYS DOT Must Consider the Economic Significance of I-81

Onondaga County Legislature, Brian F. May

Only in New York state, with its government

largely responsible for the fragile state of our local economy, could the state Department of Transportation consid-er an idea that would damage viable businesses and quality of life along the interstate 81 corridor.

Over the last 50 years, the i-81 corridor has been fertile ground for growing and nurturing businesses and communities throughout the region. in recent times, however, our econo-my has endured dramatic changes and we’ve transformed into a service-based economy. Basically, we don’t “make” things here like we used to...

Many of today’s businesses rely on the i-81 corridor, and serve as

a new cornerstone of our economy. sure, Destiny usA, southern Wine & spirits, and other large employers account for thousands of jobs to the North, but we also cannot underesti-mate the relevance of small businesses. What about the convenience stores, restaurants and bakeries, or southern Tier farms bringing crops to Market? These businesses are living proof the American Dream is alive and well, yet their future may be jeopardized by those who do not live, work or employ people here.

From an economic development perspective, Onondaga County’s suc-cess as a tourism and convention des-tination is largely dependent on access provided by the intersection of i-81 and the NYs Thruway. Our marketing

investments are generating substantial returns and benefits to our community. The National Bowling Congress in 2018, for example, will inject $70 mil-lion into the local economy!

While there are many good and noble considerations for the future of i-81, NYs DOT must not “throw the baby out with the bath water.” As fragile and imperfect as our economy may be, it cannot be risked over specu-lation that CNY will be a better place if a stop-and-go boulevard were to replace i-81. i don’t presume to know the answers—that is best left to the experts—but i am certain whatever is done must consider the tax-paying businesses that support our economy through commerce and jobs.

Over the last few months, i have

been working closely with an increas-ing number of businesses, commu-nity leaders, organized labor leaders, senator DeFrancisco, and several col-leagues from the County Legislature on this issue. Our goal is to increase awareness and to ensure everyone has a legitimate opportunity to share thoughts and ideas before a decision is made in Albany.

We have to protect our economy, and the jobs supplied by businesses that rely on the flow and function of i-81. We need to think big, but all opportunity costs must be considered along the way.

Brian May represents the 1st District which includes the Town of Lysander and the western por-tion of the Town of Clay.

Barclay: ‘DREAM’ Act A Nightmare For Middle-Class Families

Assemblyman votes against legislation providing tuition assistance to illegal aliensNews From Assemblyman Will Barclay

Assemblyman Will Barclay

(R,C,i-Pulaski) voted against the Assembly Majority’s so-called ‘DREAM’ Act, which would provide taxpayer-funded tuition assistance to illegal aliens. in voting against this leg-

islation, Barclay cited that middle-class families are already struggling to make ends meet and send their children to college and that providing assistance to those who are here legally should take precedence over supporting illegal aliens with tax dollars.

“The ‘DREAM’ Act is another example of the Assembly Majority overlooking the needs of middle-class families in New York,” said Barclay. “We shouldn’t even be discussing pro-viding taxpayer funds to illegal aliens while so many of our families are strug-

gling to put food on the table and send their children to college. simply put, it’s irresponsible and unfair to the New Yorkers who are here legally, playing by the rules.”

Senate Passes Bill To Protect Victims Of Violent Crime

A Column by State Senator John A. DeFrancisco

senator John A. DeFrancisco (R-i-C, syracuse)

today announced that his bill, s340A, restricting the ability of perpetrators of violent crimes to access the personal records of their victims, passed the senate.

“in order to crack down on vio-lent criminal activity, we must provide appropriate protections so that vio-lent felons may not access the per-

sonal records of their victims without legitimate legal purpose,” said senator DeFrancisco. “This bill ensures the safety of victims of violent crimes.”

The bill amends current law so that violent felons may only obtain records of their victims with a subpoena by a court in which an action against him or her is pending. Even then, only an agent is able to obtain the records on behalf of the felon.

“Recently, a convicted level 2 sex

offender entered school grounds in Central New York with a duly signed subpoena requesting the records of his 13-year-old victim,” said senator DeFrancisco. “The perpetrator of a violent crime should not be able to obtain the personal records of his or her victim, particularly when the vic-tim is a child. if the violent felon needs these records for a court proceeding, an agent should be required to obtain the records on his or her behalf.”

The bill also establishes a manda-tory order of protection for person-al information pertaining to victims of violent crimes and mandates that a convicted felon who accesses the records of his or her victim is in viola-tion of that protective order.

The bill has been sent to the Assembly and awaits approval from that body.
