Residents not fawning over hunting proposal

Belle terre Village may allow bow hunting of deer in an effort to reduce the local population.

Belle Terre residents are up in arms, or ready to take up arms, over a village government proposal to allow bow hunting as a means of reducing the community’s deer population. The village board of trustees set a public hearing for Sept. 15 to consider a law amendment that would allow the hunting, a notion that has split the community, with some calling for more “humane” approaches to the issue. The deer population, in the absence of predators, has increased such that “people are having multiple deer sleeping on their lawns at night and eating all their vegetation,” and making driving in the area more treacherous, Trustee Bob Sandak said in a phone interview

this week. “We’ve had an outcry from the population to please do something.” According to the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, which manages the state’s deer, the Long Island deer population has been steadily increasing since the 1980s. It calls hunting, or culling deer “still the most efficient and cost-effective way to stabilize or reduce deer populations and alleviate associated damages to private property and natural resources.” But calling bow hunting “a very cruel way to kill,” resident Natalie Brett said she worried an injured deer would wander into her yard and die. Brett said she has noticed the deer population increase and the animals eat her plants, but DEER continued on page A14

Waterfront apartments could get financial aid By Elana Glowatz

The developer of a controversial apartment complex planned for Port Jefferson’s West Broadway may get financial assistance to help build it. The Town of Brookhaven Industrial Development Agency announced last week that it had accepted an application for consideration from Hauppaugebased Overbay LLC, which has approval from the Port Jefferson Village Planning Board to construct two 35-foot buildings containing 52 rental apartments. Overbay is owned by North Shore developer Jim Tsunis. Some residents have spoken against the project, slated for the corner of Brook Road at the former Islander Boat Center property, with concerns about increased traffic and density. Part of their resistance is linked to the fact that another apartment complex called The Residences at Port Jefferson — a 112-unit building — is due to go up next door at the corner of West Broadway and Barnum Avenue, in the place of the former Heritage Inn. TRITEC Real Estate Company in East Setauket is leading that development. “We don’t want to be urbanized,” resident Phil Griffith said at a public hearing earlier this year. “It is just too much.” In both projects, neither of which required variances for approval, parking

will be contained underneath the apartments and the housing will replace longtime community eyesores at the village’s western entry point. According to the IDA, which aims to boost the economy within Brookhaven Town by assisting businesses in locating or expanding in the area, it will consider Overbay’s application for financial assistance over the coming few months and will hold a public hearing on the matter. “We’re pleased to consider this appli-

cation for this project, which will grow the much-needed supply of rental housing near to Stony Brook University and Port Jefferson’s Mather and St. Charles hospitals,” IDA Chairman Fred Braun said in a press release. The three-story apartment buildings are expected to create two permanent jobs and 150 construction jobs over a two-year period, the IDA said. Rents could range from $1,800 to $2,200. There is no commercial component to

the Overbay project, though there had been commercial space included in previous proposals for the site. The IDA has already assisted another apartment project in the area this year, the Rail Realty LLC complex along Texaco Avenue in upper Port. That project, dubbed The Hills at Port Jefferson, will include two three-story buildings for a total of 74 rentals — a mixture of studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom apartments — and underground parking.

Ice Bucket Challenge is a slam dunk for ALS Comsewogue kids involved as Ride for Life event returns at local park As the president of the Port Jefferson Station Teachers Association, Beth Dimino is rarely hit in the face with whipped cream. But on Aug. 26, Dimino sat wearing a large black garbage bag, as whipped cream from a pie toss dripped down her face and body — all in support of the second annual ALS Ice Bucket Challenge at Heritage Park in Mount Sinai. Hundreds of people attended the event, which aimed to raise awareness of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and money for research into the disease, through the Stony

Brook-based organization Ride for Life. People who purchased a ticket could trade it for a chance to throw a whipped cream-filled plate at volunteers like Dimino. Councilwoman Jane Bonner (C-Rocky Point) was one of many, including local school principals and teachers, to participate in the event’s dunk tank or piethrowing games. For Bonner, supporting the cause is important, as her grandfather died from the rare disease around 35 years ago. “It robs your body, not your mind,” Bonner said. ALS affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord, causing motor neurons to degenerate. People with the

disease lose control over their muscles, leaving them unable to speak, eat, move or breathe on their own. The cause of the disease is not yet known. Bonner jumped at the chance to participate in the event this week. “Chris just makes you want to [be involved],” she said about Christopher Pendergast, who founded Ride For Life in 1997 and has lived with the disease for more than 20 years. “He just inspired so many people to participate and bring awareness.” According to Ray Manzoni, a member of the Ride For Life board of directors, Pendergast wanted to make this year’s event at Heritage Park bigger and better than last year’s ice bucket challenge, which focused on the ice bucket challenge itself. Last year’s event occurred during the height of a worldwide trend in which people dumped buckets of ice water over their heads and challenged others to follow suit, in order to bring publicity to the disease. Lori Baldassare, president of the Mount Sinai Heritage Trust, Bonner and Legislator Sarah Anker (D-Mount Sinai), all of whom attended this year’s event, were “instrumental in getting [the event] approved quickly” last year, according to Manzoni. That inaugural event was organized in four days. Manzoni said this year they added the pie-tossing event, balloon twisting and face painting booths, cotton candy, hot dogs and more. The Comsewogue girls’ varsity and junior varsity field hockey teams were also at the event. While many of them were dancing to the music there, they also donated money and helped organize the buckets for people to dump water on themselves or others during the ice bucket challenge. The buckets were arranged at the end of the event to spell out “ICE ALS.” “The goal is to have this and other events that Ride ALS continued on page A16 The PorT Times record (UsPs 004-808) is published Thursdays by Times beacon record newsPaPers, 185 route 25a, setauket, nY 11733.

Town proposes law to better track illegal rentals Bill would limit cars allowed per bedroom By Giselle Barkley

It’s a battle between the town and landlords as officials and concerned homeowners keep trying to combat illegal housing. A proposed Brookhaven Town law aims to prevent overcrowding in rental homes by limiting the number of allowed tenants to four unrelated people — half as many as currently permitted — and restricting the number of permitted vehicles at a rental house to one car per legal bedroom plus one additional car. At a four-bedroom rental house, that translates to five allowed vehicles. The proposal is the most recent in a string of initiatives to prevent illegal house rentals, including a measure that outlawed paving over front yards to make additional space to park cars. “That’s how bad it was,” Supervisor Ed Romaine (R) said during last week’s Brookhaven Town Board meeting. The housing issue came to the forefront a few years ago with the help of Bruce Sander, the presi-

dent of Stony Brook Concerned Homeowners. In Three Village and neighboring areas like Port Jefferson and Middle Country, residents have spoken against illegal and often overcrowded rental homes that are filled with Stony Brook University students, citing quality of life issues such as noise and overflowing trash. Romaine said the rules detailed in the proposed law would make it easier for the town to identify rental homes that house more people than legally allowed. “There are a number of people who have taken over foreclosed houses for sale with four bedrooms,” Romaine said. “They’ve carved it up and put around eight to 10 students in them.” Sander said students aren’t the issue — landlords are. “The law department and town investigators are on top of this all the time because the landlord never obeys the laws,” Sander said in an interview, referring to landlords who rent houses to more tenants than legally allowed. “It’s just the nature of the

supervisor ed romaine listens to resident concerns at the town meeting.

beast; it’s just what they do.” Sander helped found Stony Brook Concerned Homeowners around three years ago, after he moved to Stony Brook and identified two illegal boarding houses across the street from him. As the boarding houses became disruptive, residents in the area became concerned. “I saw the value of my house and the value of my property just go down the tank.”

Tracking the number of people living in one rental home has been difficult for the town, but officials hope counting cars will make the process easier. The town’s overall goal is to provide legal housing for students without disrupting their neighbors. “Stony Brook is a middle to upper-middle income,” Romaine said. “People moving in with their kids expect a certain quality of life.”

One member of the concerned homeowners group said at the town board meeting that he would like the town to focus on property upkeep as well. “We’d like [the homes] to stay at a level of cleanliness and order that the community has around [the home],” the man said. While rental housing and landlord issues are not as bad as they once were, Sander said there is more to be done. “We still have a lot of work to do; these houses are in disrepair,” Sander said during the board meeting. “Some of these landlords just believe that they’re immune and that our group is going to go away. Well no, we’re growing. We have 1,400 to 1,500 homeowners that are standing strong against these illegal houses.” The public hearing on the latest proposed law is set for Thursday, Oct. 1, at 6:30 p.m. at Town Hall in Farmingville.

New tool helps reduce brain surgery risks North Shore neurosurgeon touts procedure’s success By Giselle Barkley

When Jean Noschese’s left hand started to go numb, she didn’t expect her doctor’s visit to lead to brain surgery at Huntington Hospital, where she met Dr. Robert Kerr, a neurosurgeon who had a new way of operating on the brain. On Oct. 16, 2013, Noschese was in a head-on car collision in Hauppauge. The crash left her in need of several surgeries, including ones to repair her rotator cuff and replace her hip. But it was when she started losing sensation in her left hand, in 2014, that she went to a specialist. Noschese, who initially wondered if her issue with her hand was related to the crash, was rushed to the hospital after her hand specialist thought Noschese was experiencing a stroke. But instead of a stroke, the doctors found a three-by-four-centimeter lesion on the right side of her brain that caused paralysis on the left side of her body. Her lesion wasn’t caused by the crash, but from Noschese’s breast cancer that had metastasized to her brain. Noschese was

diagnosed with breast cancer in 2005. Doctors wanted to perform brain surgery the following day, on Dec. 22, 2014, according to Noschese. “It’s overwhelming to hear that you need brain surgery,” she said. But Kerr, who met with Noschese when she entered the hospital, reassured her and reviewed the procedure with her. A new brain-mapping technique, using the Synaptive Medical’s BrightMatter Plan product, involves several new tools, including a highly engineered tube that splits brain tissue fibers and allows neurosurgeons to access difficult and deep parts of the brain easily. The procedure also utilizes a fiber optic, high-definition telescope that creates a “cone of visualization” that allows surgeons to clearly view all planes of the brain they are working on. The technique also features a procedure called the myriad, which uses a blunt suction device that peels off tumors from dangerous or sensitive areas without damaging surrounding areas in the brain. “Traditionally, surgeries for deeper regions actually involve destroying a certain

amount of tissue to get to the target area,” Kerr said. According to Kerr, in traditional brain surgeries, metal retractors are used to create a pathway so surgeons can access target areas of the brain. Doctors use the retractors to pull the edges of the brain apart and create a pathway. Kerr said the issue with this technique is that, regardless of how careful a surgeon is, he or she may still push on these retractors, which widens the pathway the surgeon created from surface of the brain to the target area. As a result, the patient is left with a hole in part of the brain, which means the patient will take longer to recover from the surgery. Stony Brook Medicine Neurosurgeon Dr. David Chesler said Synaptive Medical’s BrightMatter Plan procedure is only appropriate under certain circumstances. “Tumors that come right to the surface, where they’re easily approachable, I don’t think there’s any benefit to using this technique because the tumor is right there,” Chesler said. He took a course for the procedure about two years ago. While he thinks the technique is beneficial, he does not think it is a be-all and end-all procedure for brain surgery. While the procedure is minimally invasive, may decrease the chance of injuring the patient during the operation and allows surgeons to approach lesions or blood clots, Chesler said there are some downsides to the technique. He said the technology of the technique is not new; it simply creates a new system that makes it easier for surgeons to implement. Additionally, minimally invasive procedures double or triple the length of an operation, depending on the surgeon and the nature of the surgery. Surgeons who may not be very experienced may leave parts of lesions or tumors and blood clots behind because of limited visualization. Surgeons can only see what is at the end of the tube, which is roughly the diameter of a dime.

Kerr said the procedure will decrease patient recovery time. Patients are usually tired following the surgery and require extensive amounts of rest before they are discharged from the hospital. Noschese, however, was alert and speaking two hours after the surgery. Not only did she regain sensation in her hand, but she was also able to grab and hold onto a variety of objects. Chesler, like Kerr, said patients who receive traditional surgeries for deep-seated lesions or blood clots can do well. He said his patients’ deficits were more related to the “structures involved with the tumor,” as opposed to the approach used. Chesler has seen both good and bad outcomes from this technique According to Kerr, few surgeons are using this technique. “Neurosurgeons are skeptics and slow adopters and I think that’s appropriate,” Kerr said, explaining why more surgeons may stick to traditional brain surgery practices. While Chesler said the procedure should be used for the right case and with an experienced surgeon, he said staff are looking to adopt this technique at Stony Brook University Hospital. Chesler, who does both pediatric and adult neurosurgery, said he is simply looking for the right case. Recently he hasn’t come across a case that calls for the technique. Doctors must demonstrate the procedure and illustrate its benefits when introducing the technique to the hospital. Hospitals need to invest in the procedure for a surgeon to officially implement it. Although Chesler said there are other systems surgeons can use to reach a similar goal, Kerr said the technique is a glimpse into the future. “I think this technology reflects the future of neurosurgery and accessing deep-seated lesions in a kinder, gentler, more precise way,” Kerr said. “I think this is representing a future paradigm shift in the way that brain surgery is done, and I think that we will see many more adopting this in a very short period of time.”

ones found in hotel rooms. The items will go to guests who visit the facility for a shower. Pax Christi is located at 255 Oakland Ave. in Port Jefferson, near the Long Island Rail Road tracks.

Family nets money in honor of loved one Hope House benefits from event for overdose victim By GisEllE BArklEy

Four years ago, Jake Engel of Miller Place lived in Hope House Ministries in Port Jefferson. It’s to that same ministry that the Engel family is donating the proceeds from their first Jake Engel Hoops for Hope fundraiser, which they want to make an annual event. Two weeks ago, 22-year-old Engel died of a heroin overdose. After the funeral, Engel’s younger brother, Patrick, wanted to find a way to remember his brother and raise money for a good cause. “He lived [at Hope House] for about two years and it’s a great program,” Pat Engel said. “He made a lot of friends; [it was] probably the best years of his life.” According to its website, Hope House Ministries aims to “provide compassionate, comprehensive and competent care for the poor, the marginal and the wounded among us.” It hosts addiction programs and provides shelter, food and social services to the homeless, among other functions. Because the North Shore nonprofit helps people in times of need, the community also wanted to band together in a time of need. About 15 small, self-appointed teams donated money to participate in last week’s event, where they played half-court basketball at Cedar Beach in Mount Sinai. Brian Sztabnik was one of the many people who attended and participated in the Engel’s Hoops for Hope. He said Jake Engel “loved coming to the beach and he loved playing basketball.” “They figure, might as well put the two

things together and have a benefit, and bring the community together, raise some money and celebrate his life,” he said. Pat Engel said his older brother was a clammer and spent eight to 12 hours at the beach daily. Community members gathered to donate money and participate in the event. Many of them knew Jake Engel in high school. With their help, Hoops for Hope raised more than $5,000 for Hope House Ministries. Pat Engel thought the event had a good turnout, especially considering it had been planned in three days. “Jake, he had a wonderful sense of humor,” Engel said. “He could light up the room with his smile. He cared about everyone that cared about him. He loved his family, and his family loved him.”

Students welcomed to middle school

Incoming Port Jefferson Middle School sixth-graders were introduced to their new school building during an Aug. 20 barbecue to welcome them back to school. During the annual BBQ, students met new Principal Robert Neidig, the new pre-K to grade 8 Assistant Principal Claudia Smith and several middle school teachers. They also toured the school and received their locker assignments. Parent volunteers were on hand to serve a tasty dinner of hot dogs and hamburgers to all attendees. The annual barbecue is an opportunity for students to become socially acclimated with their classmates and school while also celebrating the start of the school year.

Long Island has seen an increase in deer over the last few decades.

DEER

143400

Continued from page A1

“I don’t have a problem; I just go with it.” She said she wants to see a more “humane” approach to the deer, using sterilization to prevent breeding, tick control to prevent Lyme disease, or stop signs to slow down traffic in deer crossing areas. But her main concern is whether allowing bow hunting will “open the door” to other types of hunting in a residential area. “I didn’t move to a state hunting ground and put up a sign, ‘You shouldn’t hunt,’” Brett said in a phone interview. “I don’t want my neighbor, if he’s 150 feet from my house, having a hunter come in.” Sandak said any Belle Terre bow hunting would be subject to the same state regulations as in any other community. Among those regulations are minimum distances from homes where hunting can take place, ruling out smaller properties. Sandak estimated a property would have to be three acres or more to legally support bow hunting. The DEC said fertility control is not as effective as hunting in managing deer populations and does not “quickly reduce deer-human conflicts.” And Sandak said he would not necessarily count sterilization as a more humane method, as it puts deer under “unnatural stress” and could leave the animal open to infection. It is also costly to pay for anesthetic and a marksman to hit the deer, and “doesn’t reduce the size of the herd because you’re not taking any of the herd away, as hunting would do,” the village trustee said. Dori Scofield, founder of Save-A-Pet Animal Rescue and Adoption Center in

Port Jefferson Station, confirmed that sterilization is a costly and tricky method that unnaturally stresses out the deer, but she also said she has at least six veterinarians who would donate time to sterilize deer, and the village is small enough to monitor such a program. Scofield, a Stony Brook resident, also said in an email that having fewer deer would not reduce Lyme disease cases, as other animals like mice and raccoons also carry ticks. Furthermore, killing deer would not necessarily reduce that population, because it would leave more food for deer from neighboring areas to move in and motivate them to procreate. “Ideally I would like them to leave the deer be,” Scofield said. “We need to protect the animals in our towns.” Belle Terre is not the only area considering deer hunting as a means to control the population. The Town of Huntington is mulling a similar proposal for parts of Eaton’s Neck and Asharoken, and residents there are equally split. Scofield said people who move to a wooded area should expect wildlife. “I have deer in Stony Brook and, yes, they eat my shrubs and I sip my tea and watch them,” she said. “Then I feed them some horse feed and we all go about our day.” Sandak said he is leaning toward allowing bow hunting in the village because “I don’t have strong feelings against it” and he wants to vote for what the majority of the community wants. The Sept. 15 public hearing on the amendment to Belle Terre’s code chapter on hunting and firearms starts at 8 p.m. in the Belle Terre Community Center on Cliff Road. “I would like everyone to come to the public meeting and express themselves,” Sandak said.

For Life supports and make them bigger and better,” Manzoni said. Although he did not know how much money the group raised this year, Manzoni hoped it matched or exceeded the amount of money raised last year: $5,000. He added that successful research into ALS can also help research for Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases, which are more common but have similarities. According to the ALS Association’s website, the disease affects around 6,400 people annually in the United States alone. Only 10 percent of people who are diagnosed with the disease inherited it, while the rest are affected by the disease at random. For people and organizations like Ride For Life, these events are important. The goal is “to build awareness and money so that we can continue [our efforts],” Manzoni said. Photos by Giselle Barkley

Above, fishing on the Long Island Sound will bring many rewarding catches this September. At right, angler Craig Scail with a fine brace of local, Long Island Sound black sea bass.

This fall it’s all about that bass, and bluefish, too Anglers can rejoice as early September, fall fishing arrives By AngeLo PeLuSo

September marks the beginning of meteorological autumn. It is a time when we bid farewell to summer and embrace the magnificence of the fall migratory run of local game fish. This is a time eagerly awaited by all Long Island anglers, as amassing baitfish and pursuing game fish move into high gear. The stage has been set all around Long Island for the grandest spectacle of the fishing season. Although no place is more representative of this activity than the fabled waters of Montauk Point and the beaches of the South Shore, the open Long Island Sound and the beaches of the North Shore can give anglers a solid opportunity at some terrific fall action. While North Shore fishing may not be as frenzied, concentrated or sustained as it is at the end of Long Island, there is, nonetheless, some fine fishing to be had for those who put in the time and are willing to move about to find fish. A decade or so ago the North Shore of Long Island would boast respectable

spring and early fall runs of striped bass. Conditions related to cyclical weather changes, baitfish movement and the migratory patterns and behaviors of game fish, most notably striped bass, have somewhat altered the landscape of the fall run in the area of the central Long Island Sound. It seems as if the last half dozen years or so have brought stronger spring fishing than prolonged fall runs, especially those runs that occur close to the beaches, whereas the fall run would often last a few weeks. Now, some of the best late-season inshore bass fishing can often be measured in days, not weeks. The exception to this is that whatever bass remain in the area congregate off many of the deep-water drop-offs to bulk up on bait that follows the same path. At this time of year, diamond jigging is king. But all is not lost to the shore-bound angler. One of the keys to scoring bass and big blues from September to the end of the season is mobility. A body in motion should stay in motion until such time as

fish are located. Too many anglers spend too much time remaining stagnant, waiting for the fish. There are many time-tested spots where the probabilities are high that fish will move in as certain phases of the tide or current movement, so spend time fishing those locations. Obviously, these situations vary with the seasons, but time on the water and consistent previous successes are good barometers of future potential. That said, from September until the end of the season, any of the central Long Island beaches from those in and around the Huntington Harbor/Eatons Neck area, out to the beaches of the North Fork, can turn on any given day with bass headed east and close to the edges of the surf line. Many of the bass that linger west of Huntington in Nassau County tend to move west and back out into the New York Bight, but those movements are not always easy to predict as they are on the South Shore, where fish move east to west. Bass and some large blues can be seen in the Sound moving both east and west, so who knows how the fish decide to leave the Sound. That movement, though, argues for

the angler to remain in motion and to keep tabs on the whereabouts of fall bait. While not all parts of the Sound enjoy prolific concentrations of bait throughout the season, the cooling down of water temperatures and the shortened hours of daylight in September will stimulate various baits to amass into large rafts. Sand eels, spearing, bay anchovies and white bait like finger mullet will motivate the bass and blues. Most bait will be found along deep-water drops, moving out from the harbors or cruising the surf line. All scenarios present productive fishing opportunities.

Home Services Business Profile

Worth Painting – From Montauk to Manhattan

Hi, I am Ryan Southworth, owner of Worth Painting. I’ve lived on the North Shore of Long Island my entire life, originally in Port Jefferson Station and now in Miller Place. My children and my beautiful wife, Erin, and I love this area and are proud to be a part of the community. When I started Worth Painting over 26 years ago (at a very young age!) I knew I had found a career doing something I was both good at and felt good about doing! There is nothing more satisfying than when a job is complete, seeing how happy the homeowners are… it makes all the hard work so worthwhile! I love seeing something go from plain to beautiful through the work of my own hands! I take pride in each project and treat it with the care I would give my own home. Worth Painting has grown from only painting to sheet rock repair, taping and spackling, carpentry, faux painting, power washing, deck restorations and all phases

but I do projects from Manhattan to Montauk! Some of these projects include work in historical Stony Brook and upkeep work for the Ward Melville Heritage complex. I am currently involved as a hands-on renovator on the hit show, The Profit. Worth Painting is certified with the Better Business Bureau and is honored to have their number one recommendation. The company is licensed, insured, and bonded, and I carry Workmen’s Comp for my employees. Call (631) 331-5556 for a free estimate for your project and join the happy homeowners who have enhanced their homes with Worth Painting.

of interior and exterior work. No job is too big or too small. I work with an experienced, professional crew and most have been with me for over 15 years. I work on and supervise every job; I am not an absentee boss. My company is well established on the North Shore

OPINION Vote for Martha TO THE EDITOR: I’m writing to you about Martha Luft who is again running for election as Family Court Judge. I think the world of her, and I am asking for you to help out by contributing to her candidacy. Martha went to Stony Brook University where she was Phi Beta Kappa; her law degree is from Stanford Law School. She has had 20 years of legal practice, eight of them in the state attorney general’s office and the rest in private law firms. I can vouch for her because when she was in private practice, she was the attorney for a deal that I was involved in and she was very good.

And now, after serving for these last 10 years on the Family Court, she has by now presided over 1,000 cases involving the neglect of and abuse of children, juvenile delinquency, family offenses, orders of protection, custody disputes, persons in need of supervision, applications for Special Immigrant Juvenile Status and (happily) adoptions. As acting [New York State] Supreme Court Justice, she spent three years presiding over hundreds of guardianship proceedings for incapacitated adults. She is widely respected for her compassionate temperament and calm demeanor under difficult circumstances, as well as her intelligence and broad

knowledge of the law. Her capabilities are clear when you know that Martha Luft is the only candidate running who has a Highly Qualified rating from the Independent Judicial Election Qualification Commission — The Bar Association. Martha’s husband is Dr. Benjamin Luft, she has three grown children who were all raised in Setauket, and she is the proud grandmother of three. Martha is an asset to this community and I hope that you will support her. Please use her committee’s name — Re-Elect Judge Luft — and send a check to P.O. Box 155, Port Jefferson, NY 11777.

Brookhaven Town wants to limit the number of cars allowed per house.

EDITORIAL

Revisiting our idea of quality of life

Long Island is infamous for its numerous layers of government, and sometimes those layers try to legislate too much of our lives. An underlying misconception about what truly affects “quality of life” is forcing our elected officials to pitch laws that are more knee-jerk reactions and overregulation than appropriate responses. We are seeing it in several North Shore communities, like in Brookhaven Town this week. As part of the town’s fight against overcrowded and illegal rental houses — many of them inhabited by students in the neighborhoods around Stony Brook University — officials want to limit the number of allowed vehicles per bedroom in a house, to help them track the number of people living in a home. But elected leaders are reacting based upon unrealistic expectations of what “quality of life” should mean to the average Long Islander. Telling a homeowner how many vehicles they can have, based on the number of bedrooms in a home, is drawing a dangerous line in the sand. What would that do to the basic Brookhaven nuclear family with four older kids, sharing two bedrooms? What would that do to the average car collector? Let’s also not forget about a different — but relevant — issue on Long Island: It’s difficult to even get around out here without a vehicle because of shoddy public transportation. And now we are going to limit the number of cars a family home can possess? There are already provisions in place to penalize irresponsible neighbors who make too much noise, don’t properly dispose of trash or park on lawns — true quality of life issues. Cracking down on vehicle ownership is beyond the pale, especially if everyone is parked legally. If we cannot use existing provisions to track or police rentals, perhaps they are not enough of a nuisance for us to get involved. Neighborhoods change. People build. People leave. New people with new personalities come in. These things happen, and it isn’t the job of our county or town officials to make regulations in an attempt to control that.

The opinions of columnists and letter writers are their own. They do not speak for the newspaper.

A required good act has a connection to The Chocolate War

ello, ladies,” the gentleman at the front door said. The blushing and grinning reminded me of middle school, where the athletic star walks into a room and the girls swooned. Except that, in this case, it wasn’t a group of middle school girls, it was their middle-aged mothers.

“Hey, bub,” I wanted to shout, “back here, behind the considerably taller women sits a man.” Of course, I didn’t say that, because I didn’t want to stand out, or even up, for that matter. I had a good seat and was waiting for a key moment to contribute something or to clear out. I was at a do-gooders gathering. That’s not the name of it, because people don’t generally come up with such generic sounding names for a collection of people who want to make a change, to help people, to make a difference in the world. But, really, that’s what they were. Why were they there? Who knows? I didn’t ask them. I suppose it could have been that they all felt a strong calling to contribute. It could have also been that they had friends who would be there that night and they wanted to do their part, alongside their close friends, to effect change. Or maybe it was because they were required to be there,

because their daughters played on a sports team and the parents of the team captains had the responsibility to make sure everyone, and they meant everyone, as email after email said, attended and contributed. After all, for this effort to be successful, they needed 100 percent participation. Lovely, lovely, lovely. But wait; I seem to recall reading this book called The Chocolate War, which kept springing to mind as I was furiously typing details of this meeting to my wife. For instance, I told her that I’d never smelled such a powerful combination of floral scents. The host of this gathering had gone deep into the well of potpourri for a scent that, I’m guessing, carried over the river and through the woods all the way to grandma’s house. I also told her that I was the only man in the room and that there was a plate of cookies in the center of the island that no one touched.

Anyway, in The Chocolate War, by Robert Cormier, Jerry Renault, on an assignment from a group of unofficial student leaders, is told not to sell chocolates as part of a fundraising campaign. When the assignment ends and he’s supposed to decide to accept the chocolates, he continues to refuse. Ultimately, he suffers serious consequences from rebelling against the school and the Vigils, the student thugs who effectively run the school. I’m not suggesting that these delightful women, with their floral-scented kitchens and earnest, sincere, and heartfelt grins and plans are anything like the Vigils. They are working toward a great cause and are encouraging complete participation. But, something feels wrong about the compulsory nature of a good act. Instead of everyone working for one, particular effort, perhaps this group could encourage full participation in a charity, good

cause or effort of each player, or a family-choice activity. I get it, of course. The complete effort of the players and all their families could easily be greater than the sum of the parts of small efforts from each person. Maybe it was because I was the only man in the room, or maybe it was because I am such a fan of The Chocolate War, but I couldn’t help wondering if there was a coercive undercurrent to all this cheerleading.
