The Finger Lakes Drive-In plans to open this summer, as soon as June, despite having its entrance blockaded by the Cayuga Nation due to a property line dispute that remains in court.

The blockade, which effectively closes the Aurelius movie theater, was also recently mentioned in a separate court proceeding that involves drive-in owner Paul Meyer and the nation's leadership council.

On Wednesday, the drive-in聽 on its Facebook page: "There are definite plans to open the drive-in this season; likely in June. We have been getting things ready. We may be shifting things around."

The drive-in might have to shift things around to open because the nation claims that its entrance, as well as several of its parking spots and about a third of its movie screen, are actually located on 1044 Clark St. Road next door. The nation purchased that property, assessed at $56,000, for $720,000 in January 2023. The nation has said it intends to place the property into federal trust.

After the nation brought the dispute to Cayuga County Supreme Court in January, the drive-in responded by asking for an injunction against the blockade. Meyer argued that his access to the neighboring property was protected by a 20-year lease he signed with the previous owner. He alleged the nation knew about the lease before the purchase, but the nation called the lease "invalid and unenforceable."

The nation has been ordered to show cause why the injunction should not be granted at a June 11 hearing. The nation's leadership council did not respond to a request for comment by 新加坡多多开奖记录.

Meyer also did not respond to a request for comment. The drive-in's Facebook post noted the dispute but said, "I try to keep it non-political so I'll leave the conversation to what's been said here."聽

As the property dispute plays out in state court, another proceeding involving Meyer and the nation continues in federal court.听

The drive-in owner is currently arguing for access to nation financial records in the leadership council's RICO lawsuit against him and Montezuma smoke shop Pipekeepers. Meyer is a codefendant in the lawsuit, which accuses the smoke shop of stealing $5 million in business from the nation, because he sold the聽7153 Route 90 property where it's located to operator Dusty Parker.

Parker and Meyer, who are being defended separately, each seek access to the financial records the nation used to calculate the $5 million figure. The nation, however, argues the records are attorney-client privileged information. Further, the nation continued, if Meyer was given access to them, he could not be trusted to "keep them locked away" from Parker due to their "ongoing relationship."聽

Despite Meyer's claim to the contrary, the nation said, evidence of that relationship can be seen on the video billboard in front of the drive-in, which has been running a Pipekeepers advertisement.

In response, Meyer attorney David Tennant argued that Pipekeepers is one of several advertisers who use the billboard, and such use does not show "direct participation in the competing businesses of the Parker defendants." Tennant then mentioned the nation's purchase of the property next to the drive-in and blockade of the business, calling its actions "tortious."聽

"It is the Nation that blurs the record and makes arguments unsupported by facts or law," he said.

The name of the man killed in a multi-vehicle accident in the town of Aurelius last week has been by New York State Police.听

Anthony J. Carnevale, 74, was killed Friday afternoon in a crash involving a tractor-trailer and three other vehicles on Clark Street Road (Routes 5 and 20), just east of Route 90.

According to Carnevale's , he was a technology teacher in the Auburn Enlarged City School District from 1972 until his retirement in 2004.

A native of Seneca Falls, Carnevale was survived by his wife, Linda, two siblings and other relatives.

"Tony enjoyed sharing his knowledge and talents with his students. Tony was the kindest, gentlest and most caring man," the obituary said.

"He was an amazing person with a talent to make beautiful things from wood. He created many pieces for the home he and his wife built together."

State police said an investigation determined that a tractor-trailer, driven by Raymond E. Swank, 59, of Union Springs, was moving westbound on Clark Street Road when it failed to slow for stopped traffic, striking a 2016 BMW X5 operated by Carnevale. That caused a secondary collision with a 2015 Honda Accord driven by Dale K. Leone, 65, of Auburn, and also occupied by Jeffery J. Leone, 62, of Auburn. Police said that collision caused another one with a 2014 Chevy Cruise operated by Isis V. Binns, 22, of Aurora.

Jeffery Leone was taken by Auburn City Ambulance to Auburn Community Hospital for minor injuries, while Binns was taken by Cayuga Ambulance to Upstate Community Hospital in Syracuse for minor injuries. Swank and Dale Leone were not injured, police said. No charges have been filed as a result of the accident.听

Calling hours for Carnevale will be held from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Thursday, May 16, at Pettigrass Funeral Home, 196 Genesee St., Auburn, with a short service to immediately follow.

WEEDSPORT 鈥� Two Cayuga County sub shops have traded corporate ownership for community.

The former Jreck Subs at 251 Genesee St. in Auburn and 2700 E. Brutus St. in Weedsport are now The Sub Stop, owned by familiar faces Candy Duprey and Jeffrey Emmette. Sitting with 新加坡多多开奖记录 at their Weedsport shop, they frequently broke into the kind of dry-witted banter that develops between those who've stood shoulder to shoulder behind a sandwich counter for years.

Duprey, who is now in her 60s, started working for Jreck when she was 15. She opened her first location in Cortland in 1983, after college, the Auburn one in 1987 and the Weedsport one in 1993.

鈥淪he has done things I don鈥檛 think any other employer has done for anyone," said Emmette, who previously owned a Jreck in Greece and also worked on the corporate side of the chain.

鈥淚 want that feeling to go on to the customer, too,鈥� Duprey added.

Now fully in control of the Auburn and Weedsport sub shops, Duprey and Emmette can do just that.

The Sub Stops aren't the only former Jreck locations in the region to reopen independently, joining Patty's Subs in Syracuse and Canastota Bagels and Subs in Madison County.

The Watertown-based chain, which peaked at around 40 locations, has been declining since former owner聽Christopher Swartz pleaded guilty to defrauding investors out of more than $9 million in 2016. The federal government took Jreck over, selling it to Fresh Start Franchising, of Florida, three years later. There are now 23 locations, according to .听

Duprey and Emmette were hopeful about the new corporate ownership at first. Jreck, for all its faults, had its positives, they said.

鈥淚t was still a family. You had room to try things in your store," he said. "They worked with you, they helped you and they cared about you. That, I think, was the charm."

But when Fresh Start insisted upon renovations at the two local Jrecks that would have cost as much as $300,000 鈥� a cost that would have been passed on to customers 鈥� that hope spoiled.

"The biggest takeaway," Emmette said, "they couldn't tell anybody what the remodels entailed."

In February, Duprey and Emmette declined to renew their partnership with Fresh Start, giving the Auburn and Weedsport sub shops one of their own.听

With their newfound flexibility, the owners want to bulk up their menu, make it more customizable and offer sandwiches with more ingredients.

They've already upgraded the bread, replacing what they described as bland, rigid and small rolls required by corporate with fresh, handmade ones from聽Alteri's Italian American Market in Watertown. They're similar to the rolls Jreck originally used, Duprey and Emmette said,聽and customers have noticed the improvement.

Painting, flooring and other renovations are planned for the Sub Stops as well, and the installation of air conditioning at the Auburn one.

A change that was made a few years ago, at the Weedsport shop, was the addition of a local arts and crafts display. Duprey and Emmette want to continue that focus on community, they said.听

鈥淚 want people to come in here and have a good time," he said. "I want them to say: Hey, that鈥檚 a fun place to go. They鈥檙e having a fun time working. It鈥檚 a good vibe. I want to go back there.鈥�

After five years with the same contractor repaving streets, the Auburn City Council on Thursday awarded the $1.7 million contract for this year's work to a different firm.听

Northern Asphalt LLC, which is part of Riccelli-Northern based in North Syracuse, was the lowest bidder for the road program. The company bid $1,769,358 for the project.听

Vitale Companies in Sennett, which had won the road program contract every year since 2019, submitted a $1,985,515 bid. According to a memo, it was recommended that the City Council award the contract to the "lowest responsible bidder."聽

The 2024 road program will prioritize seven streets with failing grades: Havens Avenue, from Owasco to South Seward streets; Maple Street, from East Genesee to Walnut streets; Metcalf Drive, from Lake Avenue to South Street; Pulsifer Drive, from Copley to Fleming streets; Scammel Avenue, from Frances to Walnut streets; Steel Street, from Hamilton to Swift streets; and Walnut Street, from Howard Street to South Seward Avenue.听

The project will include resurfacing streets and other improvements, including repairs to manholes and corner sidewalk ramps.听

Scott McIntyre, assistant civil engineer with the city of Auburn's Department of Engineering Services, said they haven't worked with Northern Asphalt, but a reference check yielded positive results.听

"They are a reputable company," McIntyre said.听

Auburn Mayor Jimmy Giannettino lauded Vitale Companies for their work in past years, but he criticized the process. He thinks the contractor "dragged the program out through the summer."聽

"I hope that this is an opportunity with this new company to get things done a little quicker, not leaving construction equipment and cones and barrels throughout the city all summer long," he said.听

It's possible more streets will be repaved, depending on how much additional funding is available.听

The proposed project list includes three alternate streets, all with failing grades: Standart Avenue, from North to Vista streets; Chestnut Street, from East Genesee to Walnut streets; and State Street, from Seymour to Van Anden streets.听

Giannettino supports using additional funding to repave State Street in front of Auburn Correctional Facility.听

"It's in pretty bad shape," he said. "I'm in favor of getting that done."聽

Auburn City Manager Jeff Dygert told the council there would be a staff meeting to discuss the available funding. He asked councilors to submit projects they think need attention.

It may be too late, but a nonprofit group is making its pitch in a last-ditch attempt to help Wells College in Aurora avert closure.听

Dr. Jim Malatras, chief strategy officer and vice president of education for The Fedcap Group, told 新加坡多多开奖记录 that his organization contacted the college's leadership shortly after the 156-year-old Aurora institution announced it will close at the end of the spring semester.听

A formal request was sent on Friday, according to Malatras. So far, the college has not responded.听

The Fedcap Group is a nonprofit with links to dozens of affiliates and companies, including Apex Technical School. The organization has four practice areas: Economic development, education, health and workforce development.听

What the organization has been seeking, Malatras said, is to have an association with a college through an acquisition or partnership. FedCap of Paul Smith's College in northern New York, but there were regulatory hurdles and the school decided to end its collaboration with the group.听

Malatras thinks Fedcap's pipeline 鈥� the organization serves 230,000 people annually 鈥� could help Wells address聽declining enrollment, which is the main cause of the college's financial woes. From the 2016 fiscal year through 2022, enrollment fell by nearly 40%. With fewer students, the college relied on other sources of funding, such as contributions and grants.听

There are other resources Fedcap can offer, such as financial expertise, information technology and marketing services.听

"We think we can turn it around, frankly, and we're open to turning it around because it's not just helping the college 鈥� that's good for them 鈥� but in our interest, it opens the door for so many of the people we serve and other people in the communities that we're focused on," said Malatras, who previously served as SUNY chancellor.听

It's unlikely, though, the college will reverse its decision.听

In the letter announcing the closure, Wells College President Jonathan Gibralter and Marie Chapman Carroll, who chairs the college's board of trustees, said the board "spent years trying to find creative solutions to raise revenues in hopes of avoiding closure." Those ideas included "conversations with other academic partners," they added.听

But with revenues "not projected to be sufficient for Wells' long-term financial stability," the board voted to close the college.听

Malatras acknowledges it may be too late to save Wells. The college has already notified its accreditor, Middle States Commission on Higher Education, and the state Education Department. Closure plans are being submitted and the college will lay off its workforce.听

"But we think it's worthy of seeing what could possibly be done to reverse that and we would be open to that," he said.听
