Living in Dryden

Marriage, jails, economy

Today's Ithaca Journal, like yesterday's, is very quiet on Dryden, though it covers some county and state issues that have an effect. Today's paper includes:

• a letter from Pat Ober of Dryden opposing gay marriage,
• discussion of the county jail situation,
• Senator Schumer on Tompkins County's prospects and the possibility of the federal government limiting the local share of Medicaid,
• an article noting that Sustainable Tompkins will be hosting 6-week "salons" designed "to share ideas on ways to move toward a more sustainable future", though the nearest ones are in Lansing and Ithaca,
• and an editorial on Tompkins County's possible 'importing' of 13.665 acres of Empire Zone from Schuyler County.
