GUTWILUGrnm By Jane DeNoyelles Staff Writer A Tappan man seeking the Conservative nomination for councilman accused the Orangetown Town Board and town attorney last night of misleading residents by saying paramedic service in the town was not subject to referendum. Discussion of the service and its cost is set for next Monday's workshop meeting. The Town Board will then vote on it at its regular meeting Sept. 24. James Leman said last night that Town Attorney Diana Reif was incorrect in saying the issue of whether the town should provide paramedic service does not require a referendum.

Reif has said that state law prohibits both mandatory and permissive referendums for the establishment of town-wide paramedic service. Paramedics dispense medications and can perform other life-saving services not allowed by regular ambulance corps workers. The town attorney restated the law last night, but Leman insisted the public deserved the right to vote on the proposed $700,000 bill for paramedic service next year. Although some Town Board members agreed that the public should have some say in how their money is spent, they said a referendum is not allowed. Cemetery.

I really identified with her when she said, 'If you want to achieve a goal and work for it very hard, you can achieve it' Yesterday was Mildred's day. The chance to visit Levine in his classroom and the opportunity to renew friendships with some of the art students. "This is my 31st year teaching in Spring Valley," Levine said. "It's been wonderful because people like Mildred make it a joy. She has great potential for growth.

I think she's learned to grow, to meet deadlines, to understand she has to study under different teachers. "Her paintings show a lot of sensitivity and she understands that she has to work hard for whatever it is she wants to accomplish in life." Mildred smiled and nodded as Levine spoke. Perhaps it was her former teacher's continued support. Perhaps her awakening to her potential and how it can best be realized. Some young people take longer than others to see the forest from the trees, to understand that there are many roads that can be traveled.

Mildred appears to have mapped out her future, to have charted which Kathy Gardner Harold Martin, a technician with Environmental Products and Services of Newburgh, oversees cleanup of fuel spill by the Route 59 bridge near Route 306 yesterday. page B1 '(Mildred's) paintings show a lot of sensitivity and she understands that she has to work hard Alan Levine, high school art teacher roads she will travel. Many of her classmates and others her age are still aimlessly walking various roads, waiting for the right directional sign. "The most important thing I've learned is realizing you can have attainable goals in life; knowing how to reach them and have the desire to be someone important in the world." Mildred has taken a year out of her life in her search for the right road. It may prove to be the best road she ever traveled.

WE VI SPlLLmfrom page B1 But in the last month, vandals have been breaking windows and slashing tires of vehicles of surrounding merchants, Douglass said. He does not yet know how much the cleanup will cost. "It will probably be plenty," he said. The environmental cleanup firm has put absorbant "booms" across several points along the stream, including a 12-foot-wide spot beneath the Route 59 bridge, just east of Route 306.

Nearby sat a 3-foot-long plush panda bear atop an old bed in the middle of the brook. Such debris will have to be removed, Dornbush said, because after it absorbs the fuel it would continue polluting the brook. Technician Martin said the OBITUARIES Dennis M.

Absorbant booms were also placed at Hyenga Lake, adjacent to a former bungalow colony. Over the years, silt has filled the lake, home to some carp which were swimming through the polluted water yesterday, Dornbush said. "But that's not to say they won't be floating belly up tomorrow," he said. Further north, Dornbush saw crayfish, a few inches in length.

"They were close to death, upside down and acting unusual," he said.
