Following his death, Chapin’s widow sued the manufacturer of her husband’s car and of the truck that struck him, as well as the related food distributor. The Harry Chapin Foundation was created in his honor.

Blakeman announced that henceforth, in Nassau County, September 1, or National Food Bank Day, will also be known as Harry Chapin Day; legislators in Suffolk County passed a similar bill last year, and leaders in Nassau put forth their version this pastBlakemanspring. said his favorite Chapin songs included “Cat’s in the Cradle” and “Taxi,” and praised the musician and philanthropist, who died in a car accident in 1981 at the age of 38 on the Long Island Expressway on his way to a concert at Eisenhower Park. The County Executive almost immediately began singing along with Markus when he played “Circle,” as did Long Island Cares CEO Paule Pachter; by the end of the song, one of the hits from Chapin’s 1972 album Sniper and Other Love Songs, Blakeman and Jason Chapin were leaning in on the harmonies.Chapinwas “a real guy,” Blakeman told assembled press and county staff.

During public comment, Doug Kraiman spoke in favor of banning these types of rentals.

he board finds that it is in the best interest of the Town of North Hempstead to amend Chapter 2 of the Town Code entitled ‘Administration and Enforcement’ in order to prohibit the establishment and operation of shortterm or transient rentals within the town. The board recognizes that oftentimes the occupants of such short-term rentals are not invested in, nor do they have any connection to, the town community and the residential neighborhood in which the short-term rental is located. In instances where the owner of a rental dwelling is not present during a short-term stay, the presence of transient visitors can adversely impact the commu nity because of the potential for excessive noise, parking issues, disorderly conduct, the accumulation of refuse, and other nuisances. In addition, short-term rentals remove housing stock that could otherwise be available for long-term rentals or sale. The provisions of this section are intended to preserve and protect the health, character, safety, and general welfare of the residential and mixed-use neighborhoods where such uses may exist, and to mitigate the adverse effects of short-term rentals.”

Russia. An aide came up with “sovereign democracy.” Russia would be democratic on its terms, not others. Putin may or may not have been a believer, but he came to define Russia as a Christian Orthodox nation. Short, meanwhile, sums up the dilemma in two pithy sentences: “America, the dominant global power, believes that its role is to lead. Russia refuses to be lead.” Is Putin that dangerous? Ask the Ukranians. However, he isn’t the most powerful man in the world. That title now belongs to Xi Jinping, premier of the People’s Republic of China. And herein is the story that will decide Putin’s legacy. With the unprovoked invasion of Ukraine, Putin made the fateful decision to pivot East. Goodbye to the West (if that’s what they want), hello to China and India as consumers of Russia’s energy reserves. The global economy has changed significantly during Putin’s reign. By 2000, 70 percent of the world’s GNP was in the hands of the G-7 nations. By 2020, that number had dropped to 43 percent, with China driving the wheel. Putin will gladly keep delivering energy to wealthy nations in Western Europe. Still, he believes Russia’s destiny is with the Orient.

No one gave Putin a chance for political survival when he became president in 2000. The man was determined to end the civil war in Chechnya, which he did in ruthless fashion. Thanks to rising oil prices the Russian economy rebounded. Putin cut the top tax rate to 18 percent and gave tax credits to young couples having more than one child. In time, Putin felt his oats. His 2007 speech at the Munich security conference lambasted America’s bid for a unipolar world. A 2013 speech criticizing gay rights earned him many admirers in Europe and America. The 2014 invasion of Crimea was viewed by those same conservatives as an example of decisive action. For a time, Putin was hailed as the most powerful man on the planet. Through it all, Putin was searching for an identity to fit post-communist

The nation’s divisions are more severe than the authors may realize. The recent abortion decision highlights those divides as does the demographic revolution, the assaults on American history (108 monuments and statues were torn down or burnt down during the June 2020 riots), the definition of marriage, the voting patterns of urban America and its rural counties, and battles over the mere classroom teaching of American history. This book is partisan; however, the authors deliver no false optimism.PhilipShort’s comprehensive biography of Vladimir Putin ends with a seemingly contradictory note. Putin, the book jacket tells us, is the “world’s most dangerous man.” On the final page, Short predicts that once the Russo-Ukraine War ends, hostile relations between Russia and the West, even between that country and Ukraine willPutinsubside.follows a by-now familiar story: The young man’s fascination with espionage, a generally uneventful career as a KGB agent, a vice mayor of St. Petersburg under his friend Anatoly Sobchak, the transfer to Moscow, work in Boris Yeltsin’s faltering administration, and finally, the surprise appointment as Russia’s president once Yeltsin retired.

The browning of our lawns does not mean the grass is dying. Rather it is a rather resourceful mecha nism of self-preservation for these plants called “going dormant”—a process that keeps the lawns alive for around six weeks. At that point they’ll definitely need a drink or the blades will take on a grayish hue that indicates imminent death.

Recently I wrote this to my parishioners: “Could you imagine that parents would want their child to belong to a baseball team and then say, ‘You don’t really need to go to any games. Just join your team remotely!’ This kind of belonging still connects their child with the team, but by not actually participating in person, the message is: ‘Your presence and participation doesn’t matter.’ And how do you think the coach feels when team members are only remote members?

Nature’s behavior is actually a pretty good metaphor for summer. We stop doing what we usually do and enter into the dormancy called “vacation,” but now that September has crept up on us, it’s time to get back to a time of growth, as will the lawns, once the rains come and the cool weather approaches.Thistimeof year calls for a little more self-care, just as the lawn that emerges from dormancy will need mowing again—and perhaps a bit of fertilizer to prepare it for winter. It might be easy to forget this self-care because we now have the back to school activities and regular work demands. We need to close the pools and bring the houseplants in. So much to do. And while we might notice the effect of an un-mowed lawn after a few weeks, we might not notice the detrimental effect all this busyness has on us.

example, if we let our children ‘watch’ church instead of “being church and participating, a lot is lost. By not coming to church in person the message is: “Your presence and participation don’t matter.” And your spiritual coach (i.e. the pastor) really feels the loss of the ‘team’ when few families come out to pray.

Of course as a pastor I want to make the case that “keeping holy the Lord’s Day” is good for all of us. For those of us who recognize Sunday as the Lord’s Day it is time to get beyond our past COVID excuses and just come back to pray together again. Many churches were able to stream their Masses and services during the time of pandemic and some of the faithful got used to watching from afar. But that is like Facetiming the family on Thanksgiving Day instead of going over the river and through the woods to grandmother’s house. “Being there” is one of the best forms of self-care possible.

It is also family care. Since the death of my parents, some of my close relatives are slowly moving away to jobs and homes out of state. Our best moments are when we can all be in the same room together, or even for some of us to be in the same car together as we travel to be with each other.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

The North Shore Land Alliance’s 14 preserves provide neighbors and other visitors a chance to connect with nature while enjoying 32 acres of pre served open space. We welcome everyone to our slices of heav en—including our leashed furry friends. However, two recent troubling incidents that occurred because of irresponsible dog owners have compromised the safety of our preserve workers, visitors, pets and wildlife. Last week an off-leash dog attacked another (leashed) dog, resulting in an injury that required emergency veterinary care. Just days later, another dog broke away from its owners and fatally attacked a large deer in the preserve. To the horror of onlookers, this vicious attack lasted more than 30 minutes. Both events could have been entirely prevented by owners keeping their dogs on a sturdy leash. Not only do leashes prevent dangerous encounters with other animals, but they can ensure the safety of your pet and other visitors.

preserves remain a safe place for everyone in our communi ty—people, dogs and wildlife included. While we are certain that most of you have lovely, well-mannered dogs, incidents that threaten the safety of us all are unacceptable. Please keep your dog on a leash at all times. Our organization protects open space for humans and wildlife alike. All should feel safe in na ture the moment they enter our gates. Your help with this matter would be greatly appreciated.

“Throughout her career, Ms. Longo has af fected growth and change leading to student achievement, sustainability and progress,” BOCES Board member Robert “B.A.” Schoen said at the awards gala. “We salute her for the incredible efforts she’s made on behalf of students with special needs.”

A strategic education partner with school districts since 1967, Nassau BOCES created the awards program to recognize those who share its mission of ensuring a successful, challenging, caring and safe environment that enables students of all ages and abilities to achieve their maximum potential. These outstanding individuals and organizations have made strides in accomplishing key edu cational goals embraced by Nassau BOCES, such as ensuring student success.

Longo is among 15 honorees to receive the 2022 Nassau BOCES Education Partner award, bestowed annually on those individuals and organizations whose impact on public edu cation in Nassau County can be measured in tangible ways.

Longo went on to Adelphi University to earn her degree in education and began teaching in Western Suffolk schools. From there, she returned to RKS to teach full time. She soon took on the role of coordinator of the school’s summer program. From there, she went on to become assistant principal at Nassau BOCES Ames and Fern Place Elementary Schools (a split position), those schools eventually moved and merged to become the Jerusalem Avenue Elementary School. After that, she was appointed assistant principal for RKS and the Center for Community Adjustment.

As the autumn season approaches, it’s an excellent time for homeowners to examine their gardens and prepare them for the cooler temperatures to come. Although you may think of gardening only during the summer months, caring for your garden during the fall can help it survive the winter season and produce a healthy crop next year. Whether you’re growing a vegetable garden, flower bed or even trees and shrubs, these fall garden maintenance tips will ensure your entire landscape is ready for temperatures to drop.

Fall Garden Maintenance Tips

f you’re not sure where to begin on your fall garden maintenance checklist, the best place to start is by removing all dried plants and weeds in your garden bed. Keeping such plants in your garden over the winter could lead to pests and disease, thus preventing a healthy garden next year. For this reason, be on the lookout for any spent crops,

Although the gardening season may be coming to a close, your perennial plants will continue growing until they go dormant in late fall. To prepare them for the colder temperatures, be sure to remove all weeds and any parts of the plant infested with disease or pests. If you’re planning on adding more plants to your garden, consider planting spring-blooming bulbs this fall while the soil is still warm.

4B | DESIGN & DÉCOR • SEPTEMBER 14 - 20, 2022

2. PREPARE YOUR PERENNIAL GARDEN FOR WINTER

If you’re looking to establish more trees and shrubs on your lawn, fall is the best time to plant while the ground is still workable. Generally, the ideal time to plant new trees is six weeks before the first sign of hard frost. Planting anytime between September through November will allow your new trees to establish their roots before winter sets in.

7. APPLY FALL FERTILIZER

FALL GARDEN from page 3B

Don’t forget to continue watering your perennials at least once a week until the ground freezes. Once the ground does freeze, cover the crown of your newly planted perennials with a four- to 5-inch layer of bark mulch. This mulch may also be used to cover perennials that are sensitive to frost.

Pre-emergent weed killers are used for controlling weeds before they appear above the ground. To promote a weed-free garden next year, consider applying fall pre-emergents to your garden once all plant debris is removed.

Similar to fall lawn care, many gardens and trees can benefit from fertilizer before winter sets in. Fall fertilizer is best applied in late fall before the first frost, as it will help plants endure the approaching cold temperatures. Following these simple fall garden maintenance tips will help your plants survive the cold temperatures of winter. Whether you plan on growing a cool season crop, or you simply want to protect your garden, this fall garden checklist will ensure a healthy, thriving garden next spring.

A cover crop may be spread over your garden to prevent erosion and weed growth. It may consist of mustard, clover, peas or even a combination of cover crops. Once spring arrives, the cover crop may be turned over to add nutrients to the soil.

While the summer growing season may be over, there are still many plants you can grow over the winter. The most common frost-tolerant crops for fall planting include broccoli, cauliflower, kale, lettuce, parsnips, garlic, cabbage, collards and spinach. Many of these crops not only grow well during the fall, but they taste better after a light frost. Be sure to cover your plants as soon as any frost is forecasted to ensure your garden survives the winter.

5. PLANT FALL CROPS

For those who have trees and shrubs, autumn is the perfect season to check on your shrubbery and prepare them for winter. One way to care for your trees this fall is to cover the soil around them with mulch. Adding a fresh layer of mulch around the base of your tree will protect the roots from harsh winter conditions. Avoid covering the trunk with mulch, however, as this could cause rot and other diseases. In addition to mulching, fall is also an ideal time to prune your shrubs once dormancy has started.

As you remove plant debris from your garden, now is also an excellent time for removing gardening supplies. Items such as stakes, cages and labels should be gathered and put away to be used again next spring.

4. PLANT A COVER CROP

as well as plants that are infested with disease. Tilling your garden is an excellent way to expose any dried plants or weeds. It will also reveal any pests hiding in your garden, including fall armyworms, which are most active during the fall.

A new mailbox gives the home a fresh appearance.

A small investment in a new front porch light can work wonders, but you’ll also want to pay attention to the condition of any other light fixtures in front, like those that may be on either side of the garage, or the street light in your front yard. Yes, potential buyers will probably make their first visit during the day, but attractive light fixtures can really add to the appeal of a home even if the lights aren’t on.

fact, it could look like it was used to house a pipe bomb, and you’ve just stopped paying attention. If it’s affixed to your house, you’ve probably forgotten about it, aesthetically speaking. Paint it, polish it, or replace it. You’ll be glad you did.

Washing the windows is a given, but before you do that, think about giving your house a good power wash to remove the dirt, grime, and moss that may have accumulated over the years. This could save you the expense of repainting your entire home.

Well-landscaped homes have a sales price advantage.

CONSIDER THE MAILBOX

And when the lights are on? You may have just nailed the curb appeal deal.

What Is Curb Appeal?

It’s one area where every bit of work you do can pay off. For real. Renovation expert Bob Vila estimates that this first impression could add 20 percent to your home’s value (a figure that rivals, or sometimes surpasses, the return on a new kitchen or bath).

How to supercharge the first impression buyers have of your home

C

This involves not only cutting the grass, but also clearing out any dead limbs, plants, and other unwanted foliage that might be hanging around. In addition, get rid of any tree branches or bushes that may make your yard look crowded and dark, and trim all hedges so that they look neat. Finally, plant some colorful flowers—best to do it a couple of weeks before the house goes on the market, so they’ve had the chance to grow in a bit and don’t look too contrived.

What is curb appeal? This all-important practice will improve how your home looks to buyers right as they pull up and park—or even as they drive by (slowly, one hopes). That includes your front yard, driveway, and your home’s exterior, from its paint job to the potted plants on your patio to even the welcome mat that greets people as they pass through your front door.

urb appeal is both an art and a science. And since it’s a buyer’s first impression of your home, it can be essential in selling your home.

Adding curb appeal doesn’t have to cost an outrageous amount of money. You’d be surprised by how inexpensive “prettifying” your home’s front exterior can be, if you’re willing to do a little work yourself. Or maybe a lot of work. (Hey, you want to sell the place, right?)

EastLine Theatre Brings Nilo Cruz’s Anna In The Tropics To Westbury Arts For Hispanic Heritage Month

EastLine Theatre is a nonprofit theatre company that BroadwayWorld calls “Long Island’s best-kept secret.” EastLine aims to create theatre in unlikely spaces while re-examining the canon, exploring modern plays, and bringing original works to the attention of the community. In summer 2021, EastLine toured Long Island parks with an acclaimed production of Romeo & Juliet. In recent years, EastLine has produced Prospero (Live), an original musical based on The Tempest; the Long Island premiere of Paula Vogel’s Indecent; the black comedy Hand to God; a newly-commissioned adaptation of Antigone; a sold-out run of Peter Shaffer’s Amadeus in a tiny blackbox space; and a production of Treasure Island that BroadwayWorld said was “bursting at the seams with imagination.”

Anna in the Tropics is the first show funded by EastLine’s Heritage Fund program, chaired by vice president of the board, Larry Meneses. The fund was created to sponsor projects that showcase Hispanic and Latinx heritage and culture. “With the support of over a dozen local donors, we are proud to celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month in collaboration with Westbury Arts. We look forward to producing work like this for years to come,” Mr. Meneses said.

astLine Theatre returns to Westbury Arts this September with Anna in the Tropics. Winner of the 2003 Pulitzer Prize for Drama, the play by Cuban-American playwright Nilo Cruz is set in a Tampa cigar factory in 1929, where cigars are still rolled by hand and “lectors” are employed to educate and entertain workers. When a new lector begins to read aloud from Anna Karenina, he unwittingly becomes a catalyst in the lives of his avid listeners, for whom Tolstoy, the tropics, and the American dream prove a volatile combination.

Anna in the Tropics by Nilo Cruz is directed by Tom Ciorciari, presented by EastLine Theatre in partnership with Westbury Arts, stage management by Matt Rosenberg, and with costumes by Lynn Ciorciari. The cast features Geo Carpio, Lauren Giglio,

Giovanni Marine, Julia Navarro, Kevin Rios, and Elizabeth Tobio.

EastLine will return to Westbury in December with a world-premiere adaptation of The Great Gatsby, These Gilded Souls by Long Island playwright Aly Kantor.

Floral Park Man Charged In Fatal High-Speed Crash On Jericho Turnpike

Robert Troiano interjected to say, “I think we have to be careful about asking him to make comments like that, that are really complicated. And I think there are a number of cases where it would be feasible for somebody to rent the room provided that all use the same kitchen, the same bathroom and there are no locks on doors. So rather than putting the commissioner in a position to state what some might think is the law—it’s not settled law, and we should be careful.”

Councilwoman Veronica Lurvey to look into the situation, adding, “When I was signed up to speak about this, I felt very strongly [in favor of banning]. And then I heard this woman Pat [Higgins] speak and I said, ‘Oh, there’s another side to this thing.’”Shesaid it was reasonable to ask the town to enforce the law and sort out owner-occupied Airbnbs from those who areAfternot.a brief discussion, Dalimonte moved to continue the public hearing to Sept. 22 and it was unanimously approved.

I love my home, but especially since the reassessment and the hike in property taxes, if I could not be an Airbnb host, I would be forced to leave.

Pat Higgins of Port Washington sympathized with Kraiman, but used Airbnb to rent rooms and wanted to see regulation, not an outright ban.

Beth Kraiman reinforced her husband’s views, stating, “This has been very dis turbing over the last two years for me as a mother. There’s been some very strange people walking through our neighborhood and there’s been incidences that never happened before and that should not be happening in a commu nity like ours.”

“There’s no security there,” Kraiman said. “It’s just an empty dark house when it’s not a rental. It’s fine if it was a long-term rental. The short-term thing is really affecting the neighborhood. Many of the neighbors are concerned about security. We don’t know who these people are. We’ve had a lot of speeding through the neighborhood. And it’s been very upsetting.”

Responding to Higgins, Kraiman asserted, “There’s plenty of hotel options in the community. If someone’s coming here for a day or two or for a week, there’s plenty of other options besides moving into a house for a Miquelweek.”Long sympathized with the Kraimans, but acknowledged, “Short-term rentals provide additional income, supplemental income, to people that may not have other resources besides their own house. And there is also a process of vetting the

“I was born in the Town of North Hempstead,” Higgins continued. “I grew up there. I raised my kids there. I got married there. That’s my life. I love my home, but especially since the reassessment and the hike in property taxes, if I could not be an Airbnb host, I would be forced to leave.”

When it’s not being rented, Kraiman continued, the house is empty, mentioning a fire that started in the backyard there some months ago and fortunately his son, 14, spotted the fire and raised the alarm.

who rents it out for less than 30 days and stated, “That no longer is a single family home. It has to meet the criteria of what you just spoke of—hotel, boarding house, bed and breakfast. With that comes egress handicap facilities and fire sprinklers where appropriate. So you’re changing the use of that and it goes on to another item that you’re outside of your certificate of occupancy. To add to that, and maybe I’m overstepping here a little bit, but before anybody else comes up and starts to speak, there is liability involved in something like that.”The building commissioner cautioned that the certificate of occupancy for a single-family house might not allow for shortterm rentals, and that boarding houses and long-term rental houses are regulated and inspected by his department.

“Because of the way the website is set up, I can screen everybody before I decide whether I’m going to let them stay and I know several other hosts that do the same thing,” Higgins observed. “They care about their homes, they care about their neighbors. They’re not going to just rent it to some crazy person that they know nothing about. Most of these people have stayed in Airbnb previously. The hosts in those places write reviews. I read the reviews. I see what they say about these people. If there’s something I don’t like, I don’t accept them.”

Airbnb, she added, also has a process to screen its users.

“My feeling is it doesn’t need to be a blanket ban that’s going to hurt people like me,” Higgins concluded. “I bring a lot of business with my business. They don’t eat at my house. They eat at all the restaurants. They shop [locally]. It’s a boost to the economy here. I’ve been doing this for almost nine years. I’ve never had a single neighbor complain. I don’t have trash outside. I don’t have these problems. And none of the other

A former nurse forced to retire because of health problems, Higgins said she has had no problems with her renters, most of them professionals and also people with ties to the town who come in for family reunions, funerals, weddings and school reunions. She has also hosted for longer terms students that come for internships.

Dalimonte reiterated that the Village of Flower Hill prohibits leasing for a term of less than 90 consecutive days and in Port Washington North it’s less than 180 consec utive days. In the villages of Lake success and Old Westbury it’s for no less than one year.“We’re talking about 30 days in the Town of North Hempstead,” said Dalimonte, who called on Building Department Commissioner John Niewender and asked him, “In the town of North Hempstead, are you allowed to rent a room in an owner-occupiedCouncilmanhouse?”

“I don’t see the same kinds of problems [happening] if the home is occupied by the owner and the owner is permitted to rent out a spare room,” she pointed out, going on to detail a complicated family life that necessitated her continuing to live in the village, but also needing extra income to enable her to afford it.

Dalimonte acknowledged Troiano’s points, and affirmed that “we did a lot of research on this. The town has worked very, very hard on this and I thank them for that. And so did your department (to Niewender).”Niewender referred to the conditions described by Kraiman, of an unoccupied house without the owner on premises and

Nina Gordon said she checked Airbnb rentals in Great Neck and “I was amazed at the things that came up and [the owners] make no secret of it. They advertise their name, they put pictures of their house with the street Gordonnumber.”saidshe contacted

hosts that do it the way I do it have these problems. So I would hope that before voting for a blanket ban you would do a little research if you haven’t already.”

She accused her neighbor, who she said has never lived in the house, of “[filling] his pockets with money. And now he’s figured out that there’s another way that he can make more money by renting it out to people who are coming through town. We moved to the community to be part of a neighborhood, and we if we had wanted to live next to a hotel, we would have moved next to a hotel, but this is what this man has turned his house into.”
