📰 News we're reading

• Planned Parenthood Health Center in Ogdensburg to close Dec. 31 (northcountrynow.com) — Ogdensburg's Planned Parenthood Health Center on Ford Street will close December 31, shifting patients to Canton and Watertown locations or telehealth. While no staff will lose jobs, local residents who rely on the clinic's sexual and reproductive health services will need to plan now for transportation, new appointments, and help from patient navigators during the transition.
   

• Library and Remington submit multimillion dollar proposals for DRI funds; few commercial projects included (northcountrynow.com) — Downtown Ogdensburg could see more than $24 million in investment, as 19 projects compete for state Downtown Revitalization Initiative funds, including major expansions at the Remington Art Museum and Ogdensburg Public Library. Proposed work spans new housing, upgraded commercial spaces, safer pedestrian-friendly streets, and a small-project fund to help local businesses and cultural groups improve their properties.
   

• Remington Museum: 'Afraid of what the community will say' (wwnytv.com) — Leaders at Ogdensburg's Remington Museum are weighing a controversial plan to demolish a deteriorated historic house to build a new children's museum and event space, tied to a $4.5 million DRI funding request. The director acknowledges community concerns but argues the expansion would create a more functional, year-round cultural hub for local families and visitors.
