Low turnout as fire commissioner races go to the polls

In central New York, election day focuses on fire district commissioners who control budgets. Voters in Onondaga County fire districts decide five-member boards across 23 departments, with several contests like Fabius Apulia and Pompey Hill featuring incumbents and challengers. Some seats draw no candidates, while write-ins have produced winners in the past.

Complex international adoption case highlights costs and consent

An American couple adopted a boy at a cost of 2500 dollars while considering international routes that can cost ten times as much. The process included a home study by a social worker and a background check by an immigration officer. The biological father signed away parental rights in court with attorney Jeffrey Drimer reporting a smooth process. The six month waiting period left the couple nervous amid potential legislative changes. Paula Ettelbrick notes no concerted efforts to overturn the ruling despite safety concerns.
