VILLAGE NEWSLETTER 062012.pub - Village of Horseheads

Bob and I came to Horseheads late in 1951
wanting to settle in a small town to raise our family.
He had been wounded in combat in Korea and we
wanted to put that all behind us.
I knew a little about the area because my
mother had taught school in the Breeseport High
School in the 1930’s. I remember the wonderful
five cent vanilla ice cream cones at Brown’s Drug
Store.
We purchased a small trailer at the Pioneer
Trailer Park and Sales. The rent was $18.00 a
month if you mowed your own lawn. A 20 lb cylinder
of propane was $2.00. We thought we were
ready for the first winter in Horseheads. Little did
we know about frozen water pipes, fuel truck deliveries
and sharing a laundry room with approximately
fifty other families. Carl Gross was our paperboy,
collecting each week. We used a centrally
located pay phone and Elmco Dairy delivered our
milk every other day.
Our first daughter, Colleen, was born during
the hot summer of 1952. I had ceased working
and was enjoying motherhood. 1952 was an election
year, (National), and the first time I had ever
voted. As best as I can remember the voting booth
was located near Campbell’s Esso Gas Station in
the Village. I worried beforehand about what I
would do with the baby when I “went behind the
curtain.” Needless worry, someone helped me and
my choice of candidate won! I remember Harry Tifft
campaigning so many feet from the entrance to the
small building-all new to me!
The brickyard was still producing bricks
and lots of red-orange “smoke” just as I got my
wash nicely hung on the lines. In addition to Pennsylvania
RR was still using coal to produce steam
so it was risky whenever I tried to beat the odds. I
was happy when the dryer was available in the
laundry room.
It became obvious we needed more living
space so we purchased a larger mobile home.
When Colleen was about 18 months old we had an

MEMORIES
Mid Century Memories of Horseheads
By Horseheads Historian, Joan O’Dell
early November snow storm. I though it would be
fun to pull her on a sled to the Village and purchase
her first pair of boots at Bernie Kahn’s store.
She liked the little white boots so well that she
wanted to walk home instead of being pulled on the
sled. Ho-hum!
In 1955 our second daughter, Kelly was
born and once again we needed more space-a
house! We started looking around the county but
always returning to the Horseheads area. National
Homes was in full swing at the Holding Point but
we chose something else. In early 1957 we purchased
a building lot from Dean Baylor on Ridge
Road with the idea that the new house would be
completed by the time Colleen would be starting
Kindergarten at the Ridge Road School.
First of all, the cows had to be relocated and
what excitement when the cellar was dug. We really
were going to have a real home. The house made it in
the nick of time and we were so happy. I am so happy
that I am still here 54 years later.
Some of my memories around Horseheads
area: Minnie Correl’s stale candy, Maude Judson’s Coal
yard, Gus Oldoyd’s Grocery, Rotary gas station run by
Al Miller, Grand Union in the Square, the new highway
to Elmira (Rt. 17), G.L.F., Hibbard’s Hardware, building
of additional schools in Horseheads, the coming of the
Westinghouse Plant, Alart’s Motors & Clute Ford Company.
Last but not least, Cohen’s Clothing Store for
Women and Children.
I started selecting plaid school dresses in July
for my girls and to this day they are fond of plaid
clothes! The Orange Spa on S. Main Street had a
Panosian store and this was a favorite shop for Stride
Rite shoes.
Horseheads was a busy 5 point intersection, as
it is today but we learn to play “Horseheads Roulette”
early on and have loved being here all these years…a
good choice.

.VILLAGE ANNUAL SPRING HYDRANT FLUSHING SCHEDULED FOR
JUNE 11 THROUGH JUNE 29, 2012
In order to help maintain water quality and ensure the operation of our system’s
hydrants, the Village Water Department begins its annual hydrant and
main flushing program on June 11, 2012.
Week of June 11th – Flushing begins with hydrants south of I86. Starting
with the Orchard Knoll neighborhood and proceeding west
Week of June 18th – Flushing begins with hydrants north of I86 and proceeding
north between North Main St. and Westinghouse Road
Week of June 25th – Flushing begins with hydrants north of I86 between
Westinghouse Road and the Barrington West subdivision and proceeds north
The Village Water Department advises that discolored water problems may occur in affected
areas, however, this should clear up within one hour. The discoloration does not present a
health problem, but could potentially cause problems if a customer is doing laundry. When
flushing is taking place in your area, we suggest that you always run your cold water tap first to
confirm the absence of discolored water in your pipes. In the event that you experience discolored
water, running the cold water until it becomes clear will reduce the potential of discolored
water adversely affecting your hot water tank. Call the Water Department at 739-5691 option 7,
if discoloration continues.
A legal notice of the upcoming hydrant flushing will be published in the Star Gazette prior to
June 11, 2012

A Message from the Village Manager and Mayor
This year is the 175th year of our incorporation. Originally the Village was named Fairport, but
changed in 1845. Then in 1885 the name was again changed to North Elmira, but only for a year when it
was changed back to Horseheads. This edition of the newsletter has more information about the events
planned for the celebration. Enjoy! Soak up our history and heritage.
As we go to press, our Rental Housing Law is nearing completion. The law will require all rental
property owners to register their rental properties and follow property maintenance regulations. Although all
property owners must follow maintenance regulations now, the difficulties arise with absentee landlords.
Current state laws require personal service be given to persons in violation. This means the Code Officer
would have to travel to the owner wherever he/she was living. In short, this made enforcement impractical.
Our new law requires that the out-of-county owner have an agent within Chemung County to accept and be
responsible for violations in property maintenance. We have also added an “habitual violator” provision
which will prevent the repetitive violator from renting in the Village. Our next efforts will be directed toward
abandoned and foreclosed properties. Although this will be challenging, these types of properties contribute
to blight and it’s a problem we need to address.
Our newly formed Merchants Association is off and running! The Classic Car Show on June 2nd is a
joint venture with our companion Heights Merchants Association. Watch for the Celery Festival coming later
in the year. Please support our Merchants Association members. They have a decal in their window indicating
their membership.
The cost of blacktop is up again this year so we are looking at different ways to keep refreshing the
streets. Of course, the cost per ton will determine how many streets we can resurface.
Many of you will remember the “dump” on Blostein Blvd. behind Cameron Mfg. We are planning to
open a composting site there to take grass, leaves and branches that is more accessible for everyone. Because
the State considers it a “brownfield”, we had a significant paperwork hurdle to overcome. The most
recent clearance came from DEC’s hazardous materials group. At this point, we have one more filing to
complete before we can move forward.
We are waiting anxiously for a FEMA decision for Tropical Storm Lee relief to put a water filtration
plant in place.
As we move forward into our new budget year, we are planning a new interactive website. New
technology will enable much greater information exchange and communication. For example, residents will
have the ability to report items needing Village attention such as a street light out or a pothole. Status reports
can be sent back. Community calendars and links to different events will be provided to name just a
few features.
We are also looking at a notification system to send an alert to your land line and/or cell phone,
leave a voice mail, or send an email for such things as a water shut-off due to a pipe repair; a closed street;
a power interruption; or a reminder about a Village event. The system is quite specific so only people effected
by the event would be notified. This will save considerable staff time as they now physically place a
notice at each effected property; the new system will also be more reliable since the notice is made in various
ways.

The Village of Horseheads will soon be celebrating its 175 th Anniversary. Two committees have been formed to
celebrate the occasion. The 175 th Committee and the Pack Horse Committee are planning a year-long calendar
of events to incorporate this celebration into each of the following: a Mother/Daughter Tea, Antique Cruise-In Car
Show, Concerts in Teal Park, Family Days in Horseheads, a Jazz Festival, the local Farmer’s Market, Holly Days,
a Victorian Stroll, Art Show, a Quilt Show and finally the unveiling of the Military Pack Horse statue.
Below is a brief story about how our Village has come to memorialize the Military pack horse…..
….Horseheads is the first and only town and village in the United States dedicated to the service of the American
Military Horse. Unparalleled in American Military History this twenty-eight square mile area called HORSEHEADS has
the proud distinction that memorializes the Military pack horse.
On September 24, 1779 General Sullivan’s Military pack horses, returning through the valley from their 450 mile
journey, had reached the end of their endurance. Here, through humanitarian reasons the General was compelled to
dispose of these partners in the cause of American freedom.
A few years later, the skulls of the horses were arrayed along the trail in defiant fashion by a few returning Native
American. The first settlers, reading these Native American signs, promptly built their homes on the spot. This location,
first known as “The Valley of Horses Heads” was later changed to Horseheads, New York.
To commemorate this historical event and our 175th Anniversary; the Military Pack Horse Committee has been
formed to purchase and erect a bronze statue of a Military pack horse in a prominent location in the village. The
cost of the statue is estimated to be in the area of $16,000 to $18,000.
Fund raising is being planned for the Military pack horse and we are currently accepting donations. We are also
accepting sponsorships for the other events listed above throughout the year. We anticipate that over the next
year, there will be approximately 20,000 to 30,000 people attending these events. We, the 175 th Committee and
the Pack Horse Committee are requesting support from the businesses in the Village. Let the community know
you stand behind them and support their efforts! You have the opportunity to be recognized at each event in return
for your sponsorship. The Military Pack Horse Committee has created the recognition levels below in the
form of engraved bricks for the base of the horse:
$500 and over..General $50…………….Captain
$250.................Colonel Other………….Lieutenant
$100………..…..Major

1. The property owner/contractor will provide barricades prior to removal of the old sidewalk.
2. Property owner/contractor will have one week from the date of removal of the existing sidewalk
by the Village to replace the sidewalk using the Village specifications sheet.
3. Once the property owner/contractor installs the new sidewalk, an additional week will be allowed
for the property owner/contractor to restore immediate area (backfilling, grass seeding,
etc.) to a safe an acceptable manner.
The Village will perform a final inspection to ensure full compliance with specifications before certifying
acceptability to the Village at the end of the period.
** This program only includes sidewalk that is within the Village right-of-way. It does not include
approach walks or other walks on private property. Government/Tax Exempt Properties ARE
NOT ELIGIBLE for this program.
