Watkins Glen Mayor, Has Died Of Cancer
From The Watkins Glen Village Clerk:
Today marks the beginning of a period of mourning for our village. As we lower the American flag to half-staff we honor the life and legacy of a devoted partner, mother, grandmother, advisor, resident, friend, and leader. The Honorable Laurie DeNardo, our beloved Mayor, has found peace following her courageous ten-month battle with cancer.
While our hearts are heavy with loss, we also find comfort in knowing that Laurie’s remarkable spirit, compassion, and strength leave behind a legacy that will continue to guide and inspire our community.
A lifelong resident of Watkins Glen, Laurie was deeply committed to preserving the character and heritage of the village she loved. She found joy in boating, local music, and giving back through countless volunteer efforts that enriched the lives of others. Her service to the community was extensive, including her involvement with St. Mary’s of the Lake Church, the Watkins Glen Elks, Lions and Moose Clubs, the Schuyler Hospital Foundation Board of Directors, the Watkins Glen Promotions Board of Directors, and the Watkins Glen Waterfront Festival.
Laurie began her public service as a Village Trustee in March 2015 and was sworn in as Mayor on March 28, 2023. Shortly thereafter, she retired from Cornell University following a distinguished 40-year career in human resources. She brought that same level of professionalism, integrity, and dedication to her role as Mayor.
Laurie was a thoughtful and visionary leader—knowledgeable, articulate, ethical, and deeply compassionate. She approached every decision with care, always mindful of the needs of all residents. Her willingness to listen, thoroughly research, and clearly communicate made her a trusted advocate for the community. Her expertise in municipal law and human resources proved invaluable in advancing initiatives that strengthened the village both operationally and fiscally.
Through her collaboration with regional and state partners, Laurie helped bring meaningful improvements and positive change to Watkins Glen. Her impact will be felt for years to come.
Laurie’s family, friends, and colleagues are deeply grateful for the outpouring of love, support, and prayers during this time. Information regarding services to honor her life will be shared very shortly.
On a personal note, Laurie was not only a respected leader but also a cherished friend and mentor. She will be profoundly missed and forever remembered.
With deepest sympathy and respect from all those who loved her, especially her village team.

Allard Attends The Sheriff's Symposium
Recently, Steuben County Sheriff Jim Allard went to a sheriff’s symposium. He was one of the nine sheriffs from across the country, selected to attend. Allard says among other things, they talked about training and the best ways to collaborate with local, state and federal law enforcement.
Palmesano Opposes The Dem's REVIVE Act
Assemblyman Phil Palmesano (R, Corning), ranking member of the Assembly’s Ways and Means Committee, is coming out against the Democrat’s REVIVE Act. REVIVE stands for Redeveloping Empty and Vacant Infrastructure for Vibrant Economies Act. Long Island Democrat Assemblywoman Michaelle Solage, who is trying to pass this into law maintains, that there are so many empty parking lots and empty shopping plazas and storefronts across the state, which could be used to build new housing. Palmesano says, it would if passed, take away authority from zoning boards and and property owners rights. He also says it would be another case of Hochul-Control instead of Local-Control.
Fitzpatrick: The PSC Needs To Look Into This
Steuben County Legislative Chair Kelly Fitzpatrick and the county lawmakers are sending a resolution to the Public Service Commission, requesting an immediate investigation into why utility bills are so high in New York State. Fitzpatrick says the utility bills these days are unaffordable for families to pay and she says, this needs to be looked in to.
The Campbell Fire Dept's Fundraiser
From The Campbell Fire Dept: The members of the Campbell Fire Department proudly serve our community 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Each year, our dedicated volunteers responded to more than 700 emergency calls last year, including fires, motor vehicle accidents, medical emergencies, and rescue incidents. When our neighbors call for help, we answer.
Recently, our department demonstrated its continued commitment to public safety by contributing $20,000 toward the purchase of a new fire truck for the fire district. This investment helps ensure that our community has modern, reliable equipment when it matters most.
As we look ahead, we are working to replenish our account so we can continue supporting critical equipment purchases, training, protective gear, and operational needs. Your donation directly supports the volunteers who protect Campbell and helps us remain prepared for whatever emergency comes next.
No contribution is too small. Every dollar stays local and makes a difference.
Thank you for your continued support of the Campbell Fire Department. Together, we keep our community safe.
