Perhaps you have noticed ar-
ticles and Facebook posts about
a contest that LeRoy andBergen
are involved with. It is called
America’s Best Communities
and it is sponsored by Frontier
Communications, Dish Net-
work, theWeather Channel and
CoBank. The good news is that
LeRoy and Bergen have made
it to the quarterfinals. There are
50 quarter finalists.WhyLeRoy
and Bergen? In order to meet
the requirements to apply for the
contest, itwas necessary tohave
a certain population base and
a shared common project. The
common project is quite simply
theneed forgas lines, broadband
Internet, and sewers - - what we
call “GBS.”
To provide the possibility of
economic growth for both our
communities,weknow thatGBS
is critical and it is expensive. To
start down the road of trying to
secure GBS for the Route 19
corridor, it is necessary to have
a community revitalization plan
and that is what we are doing
right now.We have hired a pro-
fessional community planning
consulting firm and they will
prepare a plan that has to be
submitted to America’s Best
Communities for thenext round.
Where did we get the money to
pay for the consultingfirm? We
won it by being one of the 50
quarter finalists. That includes
$50,000 from Frontier, $15,000
from American Express and
$15,000 that we have to raise
from our communities. Some
of our $15,000match is coming
fromourmunicipalitiesandsome
we are raisingourselves.
Who is“we”?Well itstartedas
a group of three people, Shelley
Stein,LynneBelluscioandSteve
Barbeau,whodared to think that
LeRoyandBergenmightqualify
tobecomeAmerica’sBestCom-
munity.Thankfully it isno longer
just threepeople - - the“we”has
grown and continues to grow.
We are all giving our time and
energy because we believe that
Bergen and LeRoy are “in it to
win it.” As we prepare for the
next round of qualifications, we
arediscoveringsomegreat things
about LeRoy and Bergen that
wewant to sharewithall of you.
Eachweek,wewill include in the
Pennysaver

you can do to get involved.
