The article quotes Saranac Lake Village Mayor and former Plattsburgh Mayor Clyde Rabideau.
Rabideau said local, state and federal officials need to stay on top of the situation at Trudeau, even if, as Owens said, the Institute is downplaying the possibility of leaving Saranac Lake.
“To anyone who thinks or says the village is overreacting, I can only tell them that when I was mayor of Plattsburgh, six months before the plug was pulled on the Plattsburgh Air Force Base, I was told by the general of the Air Force that Plattsburgh would be in ‘high clover’ because a whole command wing was moving there,” Rabideau said. “So I don’t take anything for granted, and we’re going to do everything we can proactively to keep Trudeau Institute right here where it was born.”
