Obituary - Peter Clifford Wilkinson

Schoharie (Schoharie County)- Peter Clifford Wilkinson died on December 20, 2024, at the Mountain Valley Hospice in Gloversville, NY. He was 44 years of age.

Born on August 4, 1980, he was the son of John and the late Sue Ann Wilkinson.

He is survived by his father John Wilkinson (Ruth Anne), his siblings, John Elliott (Jill), Meg Elliott, Chris Wilkinson (Tara), Michael Wilkinson (Anna), and his nieces Mckayla and Fiona Wilkinson, Liza, Grace and Gretchen Elliott, and his nephew Connor Wilkinson.

Peter attended Schoharie Central School, and High Mowing School, a Waldorf High School in Wilton, NH. He and his cat Tux lived in the village of Schoharie. His favorite occupation was landscaping, and what he called stone scaping — building stone retaining walls, stone pathways and patios. He turned lawn mowing into an art form, and was particularly proud of his work at the Schoharie Valley Railroad Museum complex on Depot Lane in Schoharie. He was skilled at fixing small motors and could generally make the most stubborn lawn implement work again. He was an expert at finding turtle rocks by diving in the Schoharie Creek. Many of his friends and neighbors have these turtle rocks in their gardens. 

He loved warm places and the sun in winter.  He first traveled to Costa Rica with his mother. After that, he often spent winters in Costa Rica and Nicaragua, where he became proficient in Spanish. 

In addition to his community in Schoharie, Peter was a full-fledged citizen of the internet with many friends around the world.  He also researched everything from how to create the perfect meme to the best peach crisp recipe to where to get a copy of a rare film.  This curiosity and care was reflected in the thoughtful, often handmade gifts he gave to family members and friends.   Those who knew him are familiar with his sometimes salty sense of humor and spicy opinions.  He is much loved by his family and friends and will be missed. 

Visitation will be held on Saturday, January 4 from 2 to 4 pm, at the Langan Funeral Home, 327 Main Street, Schoharie. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Mountain Valley Hospice, 108 Steele Ave, Gloversville, NY 12078. Peter chose to be there in his final days and they provided him with great care and compassion.

DEC Announces 2025 Catskill Fire Tower Challenge

CATSKILLS REGION — The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) today announced the 2025 Catskills Fire Tower Challenge to highlight the world-class tourism destinations and recreational opportunities in the Catskill Park. Launched in 2019, the Challenge draws participants from every region of New York, as well as 10 other states and countries, including Canada and the United Kingdom. This challenge also complements Governor Hochul’s “Get Offline, Get Outside” initiative to promote physical and mental health by encouraging kids and families to put down their phones and computers, take a break from social media, and enjoy recreation and the outdoors.

“DEC is excited to renew the Catskills Fire Tower Challenge for 2025 to highlight the spectacular vistas found in this majestic park and introduce more New Yorkers and visitors to this awe-inspiring experience,” said Interim Commissioner Sean Mahar. “The Catskills Fire Tower Challenge has drawn thousands of outdoor enthusiasts from all over New York and beyond to the unparalleled experience of viewing the natural wonders of the Catskill Mountains from one of the park's historic fire towers. The Fire Tower Challenge is introducing the next generation of environmental stewards to the Catskills and helping more people appreciate and enjoy all that the mountains and their surrounding communities have to offer.” 

For nearly a century, observers watched the forests of New York State, including the Catskill and Adirondack Forest Preserve, from more than 100 fire towers perched atop the highest peaks to search for dangerous, telltale signs of forest fires. This Catskills Fire Tower Challenge highlights the park’s remaining public fire towers.  

The Catskills Fire Tower Challenge encourages experienced hikers to visit the region’s remaining fire towers located on Balsam Lake Mountain (Hardenburgh), Hunter Mountain (Hunter), Overlook Mountain (Woodstock), Red Hill Mountain (Denning), and Tremper Mountain (Shandaken), as well as the newest and sixth fire tower opened in fall 2019. The 80-foot-tall Upper Esopus Fire Tower is located at the Catskills Visitor Center in Mt. Tremper and provides an opportunity for visitors who may not otherwise be able to undertake more challenging hikes to experience a fire tower in the Catskills high peaks.  

Catskill Center Executive Director Jeff Senterman said, “With six very different experiences along the way, the Catskills Fire Tower Challenge welcomes visitors and residents alike to get out and explore the Catskill Park and have some amazing views and the opportunity for education and interpretation along the way. As the home of the Upper Esopus Fire Tower at the Catskills Visitor Center, the volunteers of the Catskill Fire Tower Project, and of the Catskill Stewards, the Catskill Center is always excited to be able to welcome, inform, and assist those who are coming to the Catskill Park to enjoy our amazing public lands and our communities. We value our partnership with the NYSDEC that makes all of this collaborative work to protect, preserve, and enrich the Catskill Park possible and look forward to welcoming the participants in the 2025 Catskills Fire Tower Challenge to the Catskill Park.

For more information about the Catskills and to experience the easiest-to-reach fire tower in the region, visit the Catskills Visitor Center on Route 28 in the heart of the Catskill Park. Grounds are open to the public every day during daylight hours. Situated on 60 acres of forest, fields, and wetlands, the Catskills Visitor Center offers a visitor information center, gift shop, 1.5 miles of peaceful nature trails (including ADA-accessible trails), picnic areas, a covered pavilion, wildlife viewing, Esopus Creek access, and much more. Visitors can connect with staff and find valuable information, maps, and advice about all the activities available in the 700,000-acre forest preserve.  

Empire State Development Vice President and Executive Director of Tourism Ross D. Levi said, “New York State's Catskills region is a natural treasure, and the Fire Tower Challenge offers visitors and residents alike another great way to experience it. I LOVE NY encourages participants to complement their hikes and fire tower climbs with other local outdoor activities like fishing, rafting, skiing and camping, plus other world-class regional amenities like cozy lodging, farm-to-table dining, historic sites and unique small businesses. Whether for a weekend getaway or an extended vacation, the Catskills provide so many reasons why it's easy to love New York.”

To participate in the challenge, hikers must hike to all six DEC-owned fire towers in the Catskills between Jan. 1, 2025, and Dec. 31, 2025. Once completed, participants submit a log of their completed hikes along with a favorite photo to CatskillsChallenge@dec.ny.gov, or via mail. Entries must be postmarked by Jan. 5, 2026. Full details can be found at the 2025 Catskills Fire Tower Challenge page.

All participants who complete the challenge will receive a letter and a commemorative Catskills Fire Tower Challenge patch designed with the 2024 completion year. The first 1,000 finishers will also receive a one-year subscription to DEC’s Conservationist magazine and a gift subscription for a second person of their choice. Again, this year, finishers who completed the challenge multiple times will receive an additional commemorative Catskills Fire Tower Challenge prize. Upon completion, finishers will be able to download a customizable certificate and will be eligible to win prizes after the challenge period is closed. Finishers will be entered into a grand prize drawing. To promote responsible recreation, DEC will offer a bonus prize entry to finishers who also submit a photo of themselves practicing Leave No Trace™ while participating in the Catskills Fire Tower Challenge (e.g., picking up litter, carrying out, planning and preparing for their hikes, staying on the trail). 

The 2024 challenge, which continues through the end of the year, has drawn more than 470 finishers to date. With DEC giving participants a full year to complete the challenge, hikers can take their time. Hikers who would like to get a jump start on the Challenge for the new year can complete their first fire tower of the Challenge as part of a guided First Day Hike. The Catskill Mountain Club, in partnership with DEC, will host a guided fire tower hike on Jan. 1, 2025, at the Mount Tremper Fire Tower. Preregistration is required for the hike. For additional details and to register, visit the First Day Hikes 2025 page.  

Stewardship of the fire towers is a partnership with the Catskill Center for Conservation and Development. The Catskill Center, through the Catskill Fire Tower Project, manages six fire towers in the Catskill Park for public access and interpretation under a Volunteer Stewardship Agreement with DEC. Dedicated volunteers help maintain and staff each of the fire towers on weekends and holidays throughout the summer and fall seasons.  

Under the Adventure NY initiative, DEC is making strategic investments to expand access to healthy, active, outdoor recreation, connect more New Yorkers and visitors to nature and the outdoors, protect natural resources, and boost local economies. Read more about Adventure NY on DEC’s website.

Long-Term Savings Accounts Developed - Sales Tax Sharing Discussed

By Mary A. Crisafulli

DELHI - The Delhi Town Council developed several reserve funds at the regular meeting on Dec. 30. The accounts were developed to set goals and organize the town's financials. "This shows we have a plan and are working on a longer-term plan," said Supervisor Maya Boukai. Three savings reserves were created for Highway road repair, the pool and playground, and a capital reserve building fund. 

To establish the Highway road repair fund, $50,000 was transferred from the Planter Brook savings account. From General Fund A, $90,000 was transferred to the pool and playground reserve. The CD for the pool was shifted into the pool and playground reserve which totaled $195,000. Additional funds from General Fund A of $85,575 were shifted to the capital building reserve along with $257,000 that was originally allocated to the town hall capital reserve. All three reserves will be transferred into long-term CDs to accrue interest.

The vote was unanimous with Councilmember Christina Viafore absent.

Boukai mentioned these funds will put the town in a better position to make larger purchases when needed like trucks for the Highway Department that can cost half a million.

In another discussion, Boukai reported a hopeful deadline of March for a decision on if the County will share sales tax revenue with towns and villages. The deadline would give villages an answer on whether they can depend on this revenue as they prepare their budgets for the 2025-2026 fiscal year.

Mayors of the 14 villages approached the County in August 2024, asking they share 12% of sales tax revenue. Of that 12%, they suggest, villages would split 60% and towns the other 40%. The shared tax is thought to offset village budgets that could avoid higher tax increases. 

In November, Budget Director Art Merrill announced the finance committee's decision not to include shared sales tax in the 2025 budget. Since the decision, several municipalities, includeing the town and village of Walton and Delhi Village, have requested a larger discussion between all 19 supervisors. 

Boukai asked if any council members felt it necessary to also write a letter to the County. "I don't know that this will matter that much but we can," she noted. 

Councilmember Margaret Baldwin said that she hopes County officials can all be patient enough to hear all sides and concerns with the matter. "I think there is another way to equalize it (revenue sharing) and not put a strain on how the County is using it," she said. Baldwin also commented that Supervisors should strive for transparency. She continued to state that each municipality is unique and until there is an understanding of what each one needs an answer on how to support one another will not be found. Baldwin was skeptical that supervisors could meet the March deadline.

Councilmember Matthew Krzyston noted that Delhi community members asked for County revenue support - due to having 75% tax-exempt properties as the county seat -  about two years ago and were denied. "How many times are people expected to keep trying," he said. 

Krzyston volunteered to draft the letter to the County. The council is expected to approve the letter at the January meeting.

Justice Mat Burkert reported roughly 30 traffic tickets that qualified for the diversion program in December. Notices have been sent out to violators but no participation has taken place yet, he said. The court will produce a monthly report for diversion participation. The Justice Department received $8,355 in tickets in November.

In other business:

Viafore and Baldwin will organize the 2024 audit of the court. 

A $50,000 grant through ARC (Appalachian Regional Commission) has been submitted. If received funds will be used to update the comprehensive plan. 

Elizabeth Kelly was appointed to the Board of Assessment retroactively from Oct. 2024 until Sept. 2029.

Allen Reed was reappointed to the Zoning Board of Appeals for a five-year term.

Helfgott & Renfroe Foundation donated $2,000 to the highway department and another $2,000 to the pool.

Board members will review new regulations regarding procurement policies. A new policy is expected to be voted in at the next regular meeting.

The board will consider placement of No Smoking signs at the pool and playground. 

The Code Enforcement Officer issued three building permits, one certificate of occupancy, renewed a building permit, conducted 14 inspections, held six conferences, one training, three site visits, reviewed two plans, and drove 148 miles in November.

The next regular meeting and organizational is scheduled Monday, Jan. 13 at 6 p.m.
