Srinagar, October 30: Bernhard Zimniok, a European Parliament member, who is a part of the delegation of Members of European Parliament (MEPs) visiting Jammu and Kashmir, said that if India and Pakistan want, Europe should act like a mediator to normalise the relation between the two nations. Zimniok, who represents the German far-right Alternative fur Deutschland (AfD), is one of the 23 MEPs visiting Srinagar. According to a report by Indian Express, Zimniok on Tuesday said the European community should, if desired, act as an honest broker and mediator to promote peace between the two nations.

The report further adds that the group that met Prime Minister Narendra Modi and National Security Advisor Ajit Doval on Monday included Zimniok. The EU MP was quoted in the Indian Express report saying, "PM Modi and I mainly talked about the conflict in Kashmir, but about the relationship between the EU and India as well." The report adds that Zimniok's statement comes after repeated offers by US President Donald Trump's to mediate between India and Pakistan over the Kashmir issue. EU Delegation to Visit Jammu & Kashmir Tomorrow: Full List of Members in the European Union Panel And Who Will They be Meeting.
This is the first foreign delegation to visit Kashmir after the scrapping of Article 370 on August 5. On Tuesday, the delegation discussed with Indian officials a wide range of issues including the United Nations reform, peacekeeping, human rights and disarmament.

On Monday, members of the European Parliament met Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Delhi during which he expressed hope that they have a fruitful visit to Jammu and Kashmir. During their visit, the MEPs were taken to the Army's 15 Corps headquarters at Badami Bagh where top army commanders briefed them about the situation in Kashmir. The MEPs then took a 'shikara' ride on the Dal Lake, for about 20 minutes, before returning to their hotel. The Chief Secretary is hosting a dinner for them.
A statement from the Prime Minister's Office had said that the delegation's visit to Jammu and Kashmir should give them a better understanding of the cultural and religious diversity of the region of Jammu, Kashmir and Ladakh, apart from giving them a clear view of the development and government priorities of the region.

5 Skin benefits of aloe vera that you didn't know about
More than 6,000 years ago, the Egyptians called aloe vera (sábila) the plant of immortality. The Greeks used it to cure all kinds of problems. Native Americans called it the magic wand of heaven.
This wonderful plant has many uses, for health as well as for beauty, especially when we are talking about our skin. All households should have at least one of these plants. They don't require much care, just a little light and water once a week. The best ones for home remedies are those that are at least three years old.
Read more ¿Qué más?: 5 Great ingredients in DIY skin care and 4 to avoid like a plague
Check out a few uses for your skin that I'm sure you didn't know about:
1. It helps soothe minor burns, burns from excessive sun exposure, and insect bites, including wasps and bees. The plant gel hydrates the skin with ease and relieves pains caused by poison and excessive dryness.
2. It relieves foot blisters. Aloe crystals have an analgesic effect on the battered areas of the skin. You can put the gel on the affected areas. However, when using it straight from the plant it is important to make sure that you don't have any cuts.
3. It restores the healthy look of your nails. I don't quite understand how it works because the nails are dead tissue, but aloe is so powerful that it restores vitality to weak nails and the healthy look to the ones damaged by abuses.
4. It accelerates the disappearance of bruises. It has been found that spreading aloe vera gel on bruised skin helps circulation, and that's why it makes blow marks disappear from the skin.
5. It soothes irritation caused by hair removal in sensitive areas, especially in the bikini area. Whatever your preferred method for hair removal may be, the process often produces irritation. Aloe vera gel feels like a balm.

Three years ago, I registered for my first runDisney race. The Tinkerbell Half Marathon weekend in May 2015, consisted of a 5K, 10K and half marathon. I have since completed a second Tinkerbell Marathon in May 2016 and the Virtual Running Shorts (four 5K races) over the summer.
Labor Day Weekend I participated in my third 10K and Half Marathon at Disneyland. I walked with a cast on my arm and with less than ideal training but I put one step in front of the other and tried my best!
Running, walking or crawling, the RunDisney events are a one of kind experience. Registration is easy via the RunDisney site. There are numerous races at Disneyland, Walt Disney World and even Disneyland Paris! The courses weave in and out of the parks and surrounding areas depending on the events.

As soon as I met Australia's Got Talent winner Jack Vidgen, I immediately got the impression of an old soul in a young person's body. Meeting at the Atrium Bar in the InterContinental Adelaide, Jack sat himself at the grand piano playing Adele's 'Someone Like You' like a seasoned professional. It was only when he unfolded a note written in pink crayon, given to him by two young fans the night before at an in store signing, that I remembered I was talking to a teenager, and someone very new to the fame machine.
'It's new and very exciting, but I'm loving every minute of it. This has been my dream for so long,' he said.
The 14 year old from New South Wales has since become a household name, impressing audiences and Australia's Got Talent judges Danni Minogue, Brian McFadden and Kyle Sandilands with a voice and vocal prowess far beyond his years. Since winning the nationwide talent search, Jack has released his debut album 'Yes I Am' (recorded in just three days) which peaked at #3 on the ARIA charts and was certified gold in its first week. Not bad for someone who has barely started high school.
Even Adele can credit Jack for some of her success in recent weeks; 'Set Fire to the Rain' peaking at #13 on iTunes after his performance of it on the show. The British soul singer was name checked amongst many, such as Beyoncé and Aretha Franklin, as touchstones for the sound on his album.
'Everyone on my album has influenced me. Adele, I love Adele, and Pink. Michael Jackson, who's also on my album with the Jackson 5's 'Who's Loving You'. There's a lot of female artists on there, I guess that's the vocal range I've got, but I'm starting to make more and more of my own songs now too.'
One of his original songs, 'Yes I Am', co-written with vocal coach Erana Clarke and performed on Australia's Got Talent features on his debut album. 'I do want to have original songs from now on, whether they're written for me, or I've written or co-written them. I want them to be my own. I'd love to go overseas on a songwriting trip and write with people like Dianne Warren or David Foster.
Despite his popularity throughout the competition, Jack admits he was never complacent about winning. 'Any one of the top 10 could have won it. When I got to the top three, I was so happy. I was honestly thinking I would get out then. But then I got to the top two and I just couldn't believe it, I was really expecting Consentino to win.'
He credits the Australia's Got Talent judges with keeping him grounded ('Danni was lovely' he says) and is appreciative of former child star Nikki Webster for her advice on fame and stardom after his win, warning Jack of the pitfalls of childhood fame.
'I don't think it was unfair, I think that's just her opinion. If that happened to her and it didn't work out for her, it doesn't mean it will happen to me. I'm really grateful for that advice though because it seems she cares in a way. I love getting advice, good or bad!'
One thing Jack perhaps wasn't given too much advice on was how to deal with his (for lack of a better word) 'dedicated' fan-base, though it's something he's slowly getting used to.
'There was one girl at Joondalup in Perth and she couldn't even walk towards me… I wasn't even sure what happened. She was crying her eyes out and couldn't breathe and just fell to the ground.'
It's somewhat flattering to have that affect on someone' he laughs.
Jack Vidgen's debut album 'Yes I Am' is available in stores and on iTunes now

Via MSF.org: MSF expands care as Ebola outbreak spreads in DRC. Excerpt:
In response to the worst Ebola outbreak ever recorded in Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Doctors Without Borders (Médecins Sans Frontières) is stepping up efforts to contain the epidemic.
Just over three months since the declaration of the latest Ebola epidemic centered in North Kivu, DRC, the intervention still faces serious challenges. To date, 341 suspected Ebola cases have been identified, of which 303 have been confirmed.
The epicenter of the Ebola outbreak has moved from the small town of Mangina to the larger city of Beni, where the number of new suspected and confirmed Ebola patients has risen steadily for weeks. MSF teams are increasingly busy with tracing suspected cases, as the epidemic has reached a new level. As many as 30 new suspected cases are identified every day and admitted to the Ebola treatment center in Beni.
MSF has opened a new transit center in Beni in response to the growing needs. "The objective of this transit center is to boost the overall capacity for patient care in Beni. Since the city became the new focus of the outbreak in October, new confirmed cases have been frequently appearing in several neighborhoods," says Marie Burton, MSF project coordinator.
The new MSF transit center was built very close to an existing Ebola treatment center (ETC) that was operating at capacity. The proximity of the two facilities is intended to bring the various components of the Ebola response in Beni closer together. The MSF facility was built on a former football field measuring 8,000 square meters and required a week's worth of fast-paced construction work.
Suspected Ebola patients will be admitted to the MSF transit center pending confirmation of their laboratory analyses. MSF medical staff will provide immediate care according to a person's clinical status; once the diagnosis is confirmed, patients who test positive for Ebola will be transferred to the nearby ETC while those who test negative will be transferred to other health facilities where further care will be provided. Until recently, both confirmed and suspected cases were admitted to the ETC, although the two wards were isolated.
In the new MSF transit center, individual rooms were constructed to improve patient isolation. Partitions were fitted with large plexiglass windows to enable medical staff to more closely monitor patients, as well as make it easier for patients to see visiting family members and loved ones. The center's initial capacity of 16 beds can be increased to 32, or up to 48 if needed.
Since August 1 the Ebola virus has killed 215 people in DRC. More than 100 patients have been able to recover so far. Active conflict and insecurity in the affected areas are making it difficult for health workers to reach the local community. MSF is working alongside several organizations to help contain the epidemic.
"Since the [epicenter] of the epidemic moved from Mangina to Beni, the outbreak has become harder to control. We now observe an increasing number of new cases further south, in the even bigger city of Butembo. We fear the situation might become even harder to manage, unless the response in this area is significantly strengthened," says Gwenola Seroux, emergency cell manager for MSF.

What is a "talking board?"
Talking board is the generic term for a message board with numbers, letters and a moveable message indicator. The message indicator, touched lightly by one or more persons, slides or pivots along the surface of the board to spell out words. Hence, the name talking board. There is debate about whether the messages come from supernatural entities or are some form of psychological phenomenon originating from the players. Boards using pendulums, fixed spinners, or rolling balls, are not technically talking boards although they may have the same effect. The name Ouija is a registered trademark for Parker Brothers' William Fuld Talking Board Set.
When was the first Ouija board invented?
The first Ouija board was invented in Maryland around 1890. Earlier talking boards (alphanumeric tables with rotating pointers), date to the 1850's. We don't see true talking boards much before that.
How many different kinds of talking boards are there?
No one really knows but it is safe to say hundreds, maybe thousands.
Where did you get your historical information about Ouija boards?
My information was culled from historical records known to be accurate, court records, newspaper accounts, websites, US patents, and interviews with relatives of manufacturers. I strive for accuracy but as you will note, there are some folklore here also! Comments and corrections are always welcome, so let me know if you have something to add.
Where can I find a really old Ouija board?
You can search antique stores, flea markets, and auction houses. Ask your Mom, maybe she has one in the closet.
What if I don't like store-bought boards?
You may be a candidate for a handcrafted board. You might look at your local New Age store to see what is carried there.
If I make my own talking board will it work as well as a "real" one?
Homemade talking boards work just fine. We have seen some wonderful examples dating back almost a century.
Why are Ouija Boards called Witchboards?
To capitalize on the Ouija's reputation of conjuring spirits, some talking board manufacturers added witches to their designs starting in the early 1900's. Swamis were also a popular design and they were called Swami boards.
Do Witches use Ouija boards?
Anyone can use a Ouija board, Witches and Christians alike!
Is a special ritual needed to avoid negative entities?
This is a popular, rather recent idea. We recommend that you always do a meditation calling in the Universal light and encircle everyone present and also the board in use. Then ask for your guides, angels, higher beings to come forward and assist you with your quest.
Do I need special training to use a Ouija board?
No special training is really needed, however in order to help our customers feel more comfortable, we do offer a short class on the proper use of the board.
Sometimes it is hard to find partners. Is it OK to use the Ouija board alone?
Many people have great success using the Ouija by themselves. However, I feel that using the board with two people helps to balance out the energies present and makes for a clearer connection with Spirit.
The Ouija Board won't work for me. Am I doing something wrong?
Like many things in life, people sometimes have better luck with the Ouija when working with a partner. Then again, some may have no luck at all. Be sure that you are not just sitting and waiting for a response. You have to ask, "Is anyone there?" The Ouija is a great mystery and we do not presume to know all the answers. It does not work for everyone, but generally persistence pays off.
What do the Sun, Moon and People in the corners of the Ouija board signify?
Traditionally, the sun (originally designed as a full moon) means "YES" or conditions favorable. The waxing crescent moon with the single star (the evening star, really the planet Venus, representing enlightenment) means "NO" or conditions unfavorable. The people in the lower corners don't mean much of anything and are just part of the design. If the planchette cycles repeatedly to the sun and moon and/or people below, it means the board is not cooperating. Try again later.
The Ouija board is a tool of the Devil. Absolutely no good can come from its use, only eternal damnation.
We understand your position and suggest that you never use a Ouija board. We also hope that you will give us the same consideration as we are showing you.
What is the proper way to dispose of my Ouija board?
Under no circumstances should you burn your Ouija. People can be injured when proper fire precautions are ignored. Really though, instead of destroying the board, why don't you give it to someone who is interested in using it? You might place a call to a local New Age store and let them know you have one you are interested in getting rid of.
What in the world is a psychograph?
It's a talking board with letters, numbers, and symbols. The symbols usually are of the fortune telling type.
What does ideomotor response mean?
Ideomotor response is the fancy-schmancy term scientists use to say that you moved the message indicator yourself without knowing what you were doing.
What is the thing called that you put your fingers on?
The proper name is planchette (plan-'shet) after the French word for "little plank." Some believe that the actual inventor's name was Planchette. Wouldn't that be a coincidence? If French is hard for you, call it a message indicator.
What if I don't believe in Ouija boards?
It is ok to be a sceptic. However, you must still have an open mind in order to see any results when using the Ouija board.
How do you pronounce the word "Ouija?"
The proper pronunciation is 'wE-ja, but you may also use the more colloquial 'wE-jE. Totally inappropriate are: oh-jee, oh-ja, oh-jar and hoo-jee.
Should I light candles before using a Ouija Board?
We are all for the proper atmosphere. We would also suggest the burning of incense. Have an extinguisher handy for your candles and never indulge in alcoholic beverages or mind altering substances while using the board.

Nilambur, Malappuram: No one could describe how landslides destroy villages better than the residents of Pathar in Pothukallu gram panchayat of Kerala's Malappuram district.
Till the first week of August, Pathar looked like a typical Kerala village. Among its major landmarks were a bridge across a narrow stream, a mosque, an anganwadi, a few shops and houses. But the August 8 landslides dealt a heavy blow on Pathar, and the village is not even a shadow of what it used to be.
The landslides destroyed most of the buildings, leaving nothing but skeletons of a few structures. The devastation was such that the residents could not even identify the location of certain buildings. The village has been turned into a barren land filled with boulders, tree trunks and concrete pieces. Luckily, the people of Pathar are all alive, only to tell extraordinary tales of devastation and survival.
Landslides struck Pathar around 5:30pm on August 8 (Thursday), a few hours before a series of landslides claimed scores of lives and destroyed houses at nearby Muthappankunnu in Kavalappara. Pathar is four kilometres away from Kavalappara.
Miraculous escape
Hundreds of Pathar residents had a miraculous escape as they ran to safety when they got hints of the impending disaster. Some saw rising water level in the stream, while others noticed the loud noise.
Had the landslides occurred in the dead of night, it would have been one of the biggest natural calamities in Kerala, said the survivors while recollecting their harrowing experiences, sitting at the relief camps.
Seventy-year-old Thomas Vettukattil said he met God face to face that day. August 8 was a usual workday for Thomas, who makes a living by helping people file applications for government schemes. As the water level in the Chaliyar river rose, a few people advised him to go back to his house. "I came home and ate food. Then I spent sometime with friends at Ravi's tea shop, our regular meeting place. At that time, I saw something coming down. I alerted my friends and told them to move on. Before we could start, water in the stream rose hip-deep. Then we moved to another shop. We held on to almirahs and roof to save ourselves," Thomas recounted, sitting at a relief camp at the Government Lower Primary School in Poolappadam.
A group of youngsters rescued Thomas and his friends in the evening. "Those good Samaritans came to Poolappara and informed others about the landslide. They brought the rope of the bell of Poolappara Church to rescue us," he said.
When Thomas was fighting the floods, his wife Mary was alone at their home. "She moved to the upstairs of the house as water from two streams entered our house. People somehow shifted her to a house in high land," Thomas said.
Signs of catastrophe
Though the landslide swallowed Pathar in the evening, the signs were visible from the morning itself. A minor landslide had occurred at Muttippara – a place above the hill in Pathar - around 10:30 in the morning. As the flash floods inundated the houses, people started moving downwards.
"Flooding had intensified by noon. A few youngsters, including my son, who went back to their houses to retrieve educational certificates were caught in the floodwaters. Luckily, they managed to escape," Chandrika, a survivor, said. "I lost my home. What all remaining is a coconut tree and an arecanut tree," she said.
Still in shock
Ibrahim Kottadan, who owned a grocery shop at Pathar, is yet to overcome the shock of his life. He shut his shop early on Thursday as the water level in the stream kept rising. He then went to check the situation at Bhoodanam, where his daughter stayed, after he heard about the landslides. "By the time I came back, some people told me that Pathar had gone. I managed to reach my house. I was happy to see my sons had moved to a higher place. And I collapsed immediately," Ibrahim said. "I cannot even figure out where my shop stood," he said.
Prior to the August 8 disaster, residents said Pathar was hit by a major landslide 25 years ago, claiming five lives. The bridge across the Pathar stream was re-built five months ago at a cost of Rs 50 lakh. It is also destroyed this time.
Yet to count the losses
Pothukallu gram panchayat president Karunakaran Pillai said the panchayat is yet to figure out the losses incurred in the landslides and flash floods. As per a preliminary estimate, 16 houses have been fully damaged and 30 partially. A building with four shops has been destroyed while 5 other shops have been partially damaged. The anganwadi and masjid have also been destroyed.
Pillai, who had crossed the Pathar bridge along with his colleagues a few minutes before the flash floods, is convinced that Pathar is no longer inhabitable. "Government has to consider this fact seriously," he said.

1 LAND USE CONSIDERATIONS FOR THE BROOME COUNTY PLAN FOR SUSTAINABLE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT Recommendations by the Broome County Environmental Management Council Adopted April 16, 2002 Prepared for: Broome County Department of Planning and Economic Development Allee King Rosen & Fleming, Inc. Authored by: EMC Natural Resources Committee INTRODUCTION The EMC recognizes the need for economic development within Broome County and believes that longterm growth is possible without jeopardizing the area s natural environment. If preserved, the natural environment can be an asset to attract people and businesses to the County. Therefore, the EMC believes that the County must blend its economic development goals with environmental protection while minimizing environmental degradation, pollution, and social decay. Generally, surveys find that people prefer living in communities that follow sustainable practices rather than in those where uncontrolled urban growth proliferates. New York State is currently encouraging responsible growth through its Quality Communities Program. The State s 2001 Quality Communities Task Force report, State and Local Governments Partnering for a Better New York, outlines creative implementation strategies that communities can use to balance future development with environmental protection in ways that enhance both economic strength and quality of life. The EMC reviewed that report and included in this paper those recommendations that the EMC believes are attainable in Broome County. Therefore, if our suggestions are followed, Broome County can employ some of the State s strategies towards developing quality communities. This paper consists of two sets of recommendations for achieving environmentally sustainable development: the first highlights overall land use goals, while the second provides specific recommendations that can be applied in the County. The EMC intends its recommendations to apply to all types of land use: residential, commercial, industrial, etc.
2 I. LAND USE GOALS FOR SUSTAINABLE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT Promote healthy and safe living conditions for all County residents Promote preservation/perpetuation of existing natural resources Healthy, safe, and pleasant living conditions require: Clean air Pure water Uncontaminated food sources Uncontaminated living conditions Aesthetically pleasing surroundings Perpetuation of existing natural resources encompasses: Protecting and preserving regional ecosystems Promoting regional biodiversity Promoting sustainable use of natural resources Promoting best management practices in agriculture Preserving agricultural real estate Protecting watersheds, water supplies, and wetlands Protecting local air quality Providing outdoor recreational opportunities Promoting reclamation and reuse of vacant commercial and industrial properties Promoting activities that minimize waste byproducts and energy consumption Promoting regional infrastructure that minimizes human impact on natural resources Preserving greenspace within urban areas Practices for sustainable land use minimize the following: Creation of air and soil pollutants Contamination of watersheds and ground water supplies Expansion of landfill areas Expansion of urban and suburban sprawl Degradation of natural resources Energy consumption II. SPECIFIC RECOMMENDATIONS FOR BROOME COUNTY A. Sustainable Land Use Practices 1. Preserve Open (Green) Space Preservation of open space can have a profound impact on a community s quality of life, and therefore a region s economic prosperity. Open space supports smart growth goals by bolstering local economies, preserving critical environmental areas, providing recreational opportunities, and guiding new growth into existing communities. The EMC recommends that the Plan for Sustainable Economic Development (the Plan): (a) Market our landscape to potential employers as an important quality of life asset. Unlike many other communities, Broome County offers vistas of hills, valleys, rivers and streams. Many other areas trying to attract development offer gridlock, limited small urban parks, and two-hour drives to recreational activities. Broome County can attract people and 2
3 businesses that value the natural environment. The number of people seeking outdoor activities is growing, as documented by the increased use of national parks, ski areas, and river trails in urbanized areas. Having areas that offer recreational activities close to work and home can draw people to this area if these activities are promoted as assets. Methods for maintaining and marketing these assets are a vital part of a Plan in the County. The Plan should help us make use of these valuable landscapes. (b) Preserve green infrastructure. Networks of preserved open space and waterways can shape and direct urban form, and at the same time prevent haphazard conservation that is reactive and small scale. These networks, known as green infrastructure, help frame new growth by locating new development in the most cost-efficient places, where roads, sewers, water lines, and other utilities currently exist. Green infrastructure also ensures that preserved areas are connected to create corridors for wildlife and plantlife. These connections will preserve water quality and maintain economically viable working lands. (c) Encourage urban forestry. The value of urban areas can be enhanced through the implementation of urban forestry projects. The use of trees and other plants can create cleaner air and provide beauty to developed areas. 2. Strengthen and Direct Development Toward Existing Communities and Brownfields Smart growth directs development towards communities already served by infrastructure. Thus, smart growth principles seek to use the resources that existing neighborhoods offer and maintain the value of public and private investment. By encouraging development in existing areas, communities benefit from a stronger tax base, closer proximity to jobs and services, increased efficiency of already developed land and infrastructure, reduced development pressure in edge areas, and preservation of farmland and open space. The public sector can also often avoid the cost of new road, sewer, and water networks that are needed in greenfield development. In addition, focusing development in existing communities can maximize the use of existing impervious surfaces, thereby maintaining local and regional water quality. This can create opportunities for more transportation options, which lower vehicle miles traveled and ultimately improve regional air quality. Existing neighborhoods often can accommodate growth through infill development, brownfields redevelopment and the rehabilitation of existing buildings. Finally, reusing abandoned or underused properties can help eliminate blight, make the community a more attractive place to live and enhance the quality of life. Wherever feasible, the County should develop land that was previously used for all types of activity - residential, commercial, industrial, and even urban parks and trails. Brownfield redevelopment must be a priority for the County and funded wherever possible. 3. Maintain the Quantity and Quality of the County s Resource Base New development projects should be located where resources (surface and groundwater supplies, sewage treatment capacity, electric power, landfill space, etc.) are in adequate supply and have adequate infrastructure for efficient delivery. Additionally, by-products of new development should be compatible with the existing resource base and available infrastructure, such that their continued availability or suitability for future users is not impaired. Owners of water supplies, including municipalities, are recognizing the need to proactively minimize the impact that land use activities have on ground water quality. The Broome County 3
4 Health Department has assisted for several years with the development of source water protection strategies. The consequences of pollution are not cheap. Despite today s comprehensive rules on environmental infrastructure and hazardous waste handling, accidents can and do happen. Broome County has a history of public well contamination, much of which is related to industry located in close proximity to water supplies. To avoid this risk, the EMC recommends that new development with the potential to pose a threat to public and private water supply wells be sited where these practices are least likely to pose a threat. 4. Encourage Creative Mixed-Use Development and Main Street Zoning Mixing land uses (commercial, residential, recreational, and others) in neighborhoods or places that are accessible by bike and foot can create vibrant and diverse communities. A mix of uses encourages people to congregate and live in urban neighborhoods or small towns. Old shopping centers and strip malls, as well as downtown buildings have been successfully converted to mixed-use communities. Mixed land uses are critical to achieving the great places to live, work, and play that smart growth encourages. 5. Develop a Comprehensive Vision for the Future of our Rivers The County should encourage and facilitate participation from individuals and organizations interested in the future of the County s rivers and riverfronts. Our rivers and streams can serve as a focus for recreational activities. Land use planning should recognize this and consider ways to maximize their use. Creating a system of community greenways is an opportunity that should not be overlooked. 6. Heritage Preservation and Cultural Promotion The County should work to preserve and effectively use heritage areas and reuse historic buildings for cultural arts promotion. This will instill knowledge and pride in the area s local history and provide a lifestyle desired by families the County hopes to attract. 7. Update and Maintain the County s Natural Resources Inventory (NRI) The NRI serves a twofold purpose. First, it fulfills the New York State mandate to the Council to inventory the natural resources and conditions within its jurisdiction. Second, and more importantly, it serves as a basic tool for all decision-makers both public and private to incorporate environmentally sound goals for development within Broome County. Such decisions will not only insure enhanced quality of the environment, but can also result in great economic and social savings by identifying the most functionally appropriate natural conditions for various types of land uses. 8. Employ a Hierarchy of Land-use Options The following outlines land use options for considering development in Broome County: (1) reuse existing, recently vacated, high quality industrial buildings, (2) reuse other large buildings, (3) reuse previously used, abandoned, or underutilized sites (brownfields) (4) expand existing industrial parks, (5) develop sites along existing urban corridors in western Broome County where infrastructure capacity exists, (6) develop sites along new corridors, (7) develop sites that could support package sewage treatment plants, and (8) develop greenfield sites. Appendix A highlights the strengths and weaknesses of these options. 4
5 B. Strategies for Intergovernmental Land Use Planning in Broome County We must recognize that New York is a home rule state. For any plan to succeed in Broome County, it must reflect the different characteristics and needs of the County s numerous local governments. Broome County government has limited ability to implement the Plan recommendations without the active support and participation of local municipalities. We therefore urge the consultants to: 1. Make an Active Effort to Secure Involvement in Plan Development from Key Local Government Officials The Plan should focus more heavily on demographic patterns, infrastructure, other strengths and weaknesses of local jurisdictions, as well as how site selection/land use recommendations in the Plan will differentially impact various jurisdictions. An economic development strategy that is designed and structured to benefit (and is perceived as benefiting) all of the major jurisdictions is much more likely to be successful than one that assumes that anything good for Broome County will be good for all component localities. 2. Review Existing Comprehensive Plans of Local Municipalities The consultants should look at local comprehensive plans, especially those that have been or are in the process of being updated for present and future land use components. In making land use recommendations for the County, the consultants should be aware of existing planning efforts at the local level. 3. Foster Best Management Practices for Local Environmentally Sustainable Development The County needs to increase its efforts to educate local officials and residents on best management practices for development. Having a County plan that stresses principles of sustainable growth as a goal will help this process. The New York State Quality Communities Task Force suggests increasing grants for local governments to be educated in smart growth techniques. Currently, there are a number of barriers that discourage development in existing communities, some of which include detailed zoning plans, government policies and regulations, and taxpayer subsidies that encourage development in edge and greenfield areas. Compliance with typical zoning requirements in edge areas is often easier, because these areas frequently have few existing building types that new construction must complement. Also, edge areas do not have as many residents to object to new construction. Developing communities by smart growth principles may, unfortunately, legally conflict with many land use plans adopted by Broome County municipalities. The County should continue to work with local officials and residents of local municipalities to: educate them on planning and zoning issues, stress the need to enforce existing regulations and to limit exceptions and abuse, look at legislation relevant to land use concerns, provide hands on examples of the advantages of mixed land use and the reuse of existing brownspace, including site visits (e.g. reuse of old strip malls), assist in obtaining grants to redevelop previously used areas, and encourage visual assessments of the community, including suggestions as to how to implement smart growth design standards within municipalities. 5
6 4. Introduce Strategies for Local Governments to Work Cooperatively on Land Use Issues Communities must work with other communities in their region to make open space preservation a reality. Possibly the County could annually recognize the local municipality that did the best job in implementing smart growth during the year. C. Formal Coordinated Review Process For larger or environmentally sensitive development projects in Broome County, it would be helpful to have a formal coordinated review process that includes the Planning Department, the EMC, the Health Department and other interested parties. The Health Department, for example, has a wealth of information on historic land use activities, sensitive aquifer areas, old dump site locations, soil conditions, sewer/water availability and other environmental matters. If a potential problem exists with a new development proposal, it would be useful to know about it during the initial planning stages so that mitigating steps can be taken. This need not add extra time to a plan review, especially if done early on, and could help prevent potential problems. D. Alternative Financing Mechanisms It is critical that the benchmarking analysis and the evaluation of site selection options devote explicit attention to how various options have been (in other localities) and would be (in Broome County) financed. If successful economic development efforts in peer communities relied on a financing mechanism that is not available in New York State, this needs to be taken into account in the report. Financing mechanisms are important in other contexts as well. For example, if the Plan recommends creation of a formal economic development agency in Broome County, it needs to suggest how such an entity would be funded and discuss how peer communities have funded similar entities. E. Sustainable Community Indicators Sustainable community indicators are measuring systems that are developed by members of the community. They are like instrument panels that provide citizens with information about past trends and current realities and assist them in steering their communities on their desired course. They help civic leaders to clarify key issues and prioritize spending. Such indicators can point a community toward specific initiatives or policy changes that will have a real effect on quality of life. Many of the tactics currently used to measure health and well being are inadequate or even faulty. Broome County needs measures that will help strike a balance between economic, environmental, and social concerns. Better yet, we need to find ways to integrate these concerns, so that they are no longer seen as competing interests. These indicators also need to be linked to performance, so that citizens, civic leaders, and political leaders can hold themselves accountable. The BC plan employs traditional measures to assess Broome County s economy, demographics, and future trends. Appendix B includes a table that compares traditional measures with sustainable community indicators. Good indicators are developed by a broad spectrum of community members. Since the process of developing sustainable community indicators is just as important as the indicators themselves, it is not recommended that the consultants develop a set of sustainable community indicators to replace the traditional measures they are currently using. Rather, it would be desirable for the 6
7 consultants to include in its Phase Two report a recommendation for the citizens of Broome County to begin developing our own sustainable community indicators. CONCLUSION The EMC offers this report recognizing that both the natural and developed environment of Broome County must be enhanced and preserved. We recognize that a tension exists between these aspects of our environment, but not an irresolvable one. We offer to cooperate with and assist other organizations in preparing environmental plans and to investigate and recommend sound methods of ecological planning for the use of the County's resources as the Plan is completed and implemented. We look forward to participating in the ongoing work of building a sustainable, quality community. 7
