This morning's Ithaca Journal reports that a short-term plan to keep the SPCA doing animal control is in the works, though whether it will keep the SPCA as animal control provider in the long run is definitely an open question. Dryden isn't mentioned specifically, but only Groton is cited as leaving the SPCA immediately. Municipalities, including Dryden, are looking for other options after the SPCA asked for a 100% rate hike, saying that their non-profit side had been subsidizing animal control for far too long.
On the opinion page, Town Supervisor Steve Trumbull of Dryden endorses Cheryl Nelson for Supervisor.
