Two fires in one day

Huntington Fire Department worked around the clock last Saturday, April 16, extinguishing fires throughout the town. Just before 2 p.m., firefighters extinguished flames that engulfed a landscaping truck in Lloyd Harbor. Huntington Fire Department volunteers arrived at a residence on Lloyd Point Drive, where the truck was parked in the driveway. Crews from two engines battled the blaze, which consumed the truck. The Lloyd Harbor Police Department and Town of Huntington Spill Response team were also on the scene. There were no injuries reported. Later that night, the department responded to a call and rescued three dogs from a house fire in the Huntington area. Just before 8 p.m., firefighters arrived at a house on Clinton Avenue, where the fire had spread to the first and second floors, the attic and the detached garage. Fifty firefighters using eight trucks had the fire under control within an hour, and during that hour, three dogs were rescued, according to the department. All the dogs are doing well. There were no injuries reported, and the cause of the fire is under investiga-

tion by the Suffolk Police Arson Squad and Huntington Town Fire Marshal. The Cold Spring Harbor, Huntington Manor and Melville fire departments assisted Huntington Fire Department in putting out the flames. The Huntington Community First Aid Squad provided EMS support. — Victoria espinoza

Huntington adopts $123.1 million budget Includes new AP course, more funding for robotics program and programs for students with disabilities By Alex Petroski

Huntington is investing in their students with a $123.1 million budget that the school board adopted at its meeting on Monday night. The 2016-17 budget total is 2.25 percent higher than the current year’s budget, with the most significant costs coming from instruction and curriculum-related programs. Superintendent Jim Polansky said the district is dedicated to offering the most effective tools it can for students. “[Members of the board and community] don’t get a chance to compare what we have here and what is available in other districts, but I’ve had the privilege of working in, [for] over 26 years, more than one school district and I can tell you, what we do here is we pay for student interests and needs,” Polansky added. “We try to put something in place that will appeal to every student that goes to school in Huntington.” Some of the expenses being added for 2016-17 include improvements to computer-assisted instruction, through equipment upgrades and repairs; programs for students with disabilities;

additional funding for the district’s robotics program; and a new Advanced Placement research course. “This works more like a process-oriented course,” Polansky said of the program. “We feel that this … program is going to add a dimension that we have not touched upon until now.” Part of the budget increase is attributed to contracted salary raises and additional social security and health care costs. However, even with those cost increases, the district will stay within the state-imposed cap on tax levy increases — the schools will only collect 1.61 percent more in taxes next year. Polansky said throughout the budget process that the administration’s goal was to adopt a budget below that cap, and as a result, residents will again receive a rebate check from New York State — if voters approve the adopted budget — under a state incentive program that encourages municipalities to comply with the cap in exchange for the tax rebates. Apart from taxes, the district is funding its additional expenditures through additional state aid. After years of deducting aid funds from

school districts around New York through a cut called the Gap Elimination Adjustment, which was designed to balance the state budget, legislators this year restored the aid dollars — giving Long Island school districts a $3 billion boost, when added to other increases in state aid. Huntington received nearly $2 million in additional

state funding for the upcoming school year thanks to that restoration. Residents will vote on the budget on May 17, as well as a second proposition that would release money from the district’s capital reserves to fund upgrades across the district to make buildings compliant with the Americans With Disabilities Act.

Harborfields pushes to pierce tax cap in budget By Victoria Espinoza

Full-day kindergarten is one of several new programs featured in the adopted 2016-17 budget for Harborfields Central School District. The board of education presented a cap-piercing $82.8 million budget last night, with a 1.52 percent increase to the tax levy cap. The district has been looking at several options for a budget this year, some that stay within the .37 percent statemandated tax levy cap and maintain current programs, and others that go above the cap but add new programs and features to the district. The adopted budget included a new music elective at the high school, a third grade orchestra program, a teacher’s aide testing room at Oldfield Middle School and a BOCES cultural arts program. Since this proposed budget is higher

than the tax levy cap, the budget will require a 60 percent supermajority of voters for approval, and taxpayers in the area will not be eligible for the $130 state tax rebate, which is part of a state incentive program that encourages municipalities to comply with the cap in exchange for the tax rebates. Board member Hansen Lee said he thinks the community will get behind this budget. “I’m really optimistic that this budget will pass,” Lee said at the meeting. “We’re Harborfields; we always come together for the success of our kids and the greater good. Most of all I want to say thank you to the community for your continued input in the entire process.” Many residents have said they will stand behind the budget due to the inclusion of full-day kindergarten, which the district said would cost about $600,000. Members of the group Fair Start: Har-

Francesco ianni, assistant superintendent for administration and human resources, has presented several options for the 2016-17 budget.

borfields residents for Full-Day Kindergarten, traveled to albany in March, hoping to spread awareness of their efforts to support full-day kindergarten on a state stage. Board member Suzie Lustig said it is time for full-day kindergarten. “[Full-day kindergarten] is part of a 21st century education,” she said at the

meeting. “It’s part of what our future is. The time is now to be progressive.” Board member Donald W. Mastroianni recorded the only vote against the adopted budget. “In my opinion, a budget that stays within the cap this year would absolutely be an educationally sound and fiscally responsible budget,” he said. “and it will continue to fully support the excellence of Harborfields. I cannot support the budget proposed that would pierce the cap this year, and I will be voting no.” This year, the district received nearly $16 million in state aid, which will make up about 19 percent of the budget, according to the district. The 2016-17 tax levy of $62.1 million will make up 75 percent of the budget, and the final 6 percent will come from reserves and fund balance.

Marine life and more coming for Earth Day By Victoria Espinoza

Huntington is getting ready to go green. This Saturday, April 23, between 9 a.m. and 1 p.m., Huntington Town will host its annual Family Earth Day Expo at Town Hall, an event that helps residents learn about the many programs and businesses on the North Shore that are working to reduce their environmental footprint, as well as how the community members themselves can play a part. “Each year the town tries to highlight how residents can help preserve the environment while saving themselves money,” Supervisor Frank Petrone (D) said in a statement. “Whether it’s ... bringing e-waste for recycling or dropping off unneeded and unwanted medicines, residents will find a variety of ways they can get into the Earth Day spirit.” One issue that will be highlighted at the expo is the risk pharmaceutical drugs have on the local water supply and marine life, such as when medications are flushed down the toilet or are present in human waste. In a joint effort with the advocacy organization Citizens Campaign for the Environment, residents will be able to turn in medication they no longer need to the Suffolk County Police Department, which will dispose of it in an environmentally safe manner.

supervisor Frank petrone shows off the rain barrel that Huntington resident claudia Liu painted, which one resident will win this saturday at Family Earth Day Expo.

According to the World Health Organization, there is some discharge of pharmaceuticals into water sources, and Citizens Campaign said, “pharmaceutical drug contamination has been proven to adversely impact fish and aquatic life.” According to the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, male fish have developed eggs when exposed to female hormones in birth control pills. Anti-depressants and beta-

blockers reduce fertility or affect certain aquatic organisms’ reproductive systems. Staying on the theme of safe ways to dispose of materials, the town will also, in sponsorship with Covanta, a global corporation that works on sustainable solutions to waste-management challenges, give residents the opportunity to properly dispose of electronic goods with a recycling event. Councilman Mark Cuthbertson (D)

said it’s a day not only for adults to learn but also for kids to enjoy as well. “Children and parents alike will definitely have the opportunity for a lot of hands-on fun at this event,” he said in a statement. “It is equally important to be able to show families across Huntington how easy it is to protect kids from harmful chemicals and pesticides, how to make homes and cars more energy efficient and how to save money in the process.” There will be residential solar energy and organic garden demonstrations, as well as lessons for kids on how compost is made and how to plant a seed in a recycled pot. Cornell Cooperative Extension of Suffolk, a nonprofit community education agency, will also provide a variety of sea specimens that kids are welcome to touch, to demonstrate the importance of protecting the marine environment. There will be a raffle to win a custompainted rain barrel, painted by former Huntington resident Claudia Liu. The 50-gallon barrel is both a decorative item and a utilitarian one, to be placed in a yard to capture and store rainwater for use with gardening, which helps conserve water. The winner will be announced at the expo. Family Day Earth Expo will take place in the parking lot of Town Hall on Main Street, at Jackson Avenue, in Huntington.

Trotta sponsors bill to limit campaign contributions By aLEx pEtroski

At least one Suffolk County Legislator believes that money in politics can be linked to corruption in local government, though he said he’s yet to gain any support from other lawmakers. Legislator Rob Trotta (R-Fort Salonga) introduced a bill in March that would limit donations to $2,000 per election cycle to elected officials running for office from contractors and public employee unions that do business with the county. The bill would limit the hundreds of businesses and unions that have contracts for services with the county. A full list of contracts can be found on Suffolk County’s website. “It is not uncommon for people and organizations doing business with Suffolk County to make donations to the political campaigns of county officials and candidates seeking county office,” Trotta said in press release on March 23. “Such contributions can be interpreted by the public as a ‘pay to play’ that results in government contracts being awarded on the basis of connections and contributions.” Trotta said in a phone interview that he hoped to gain support from other legislators, though so far he hasn’t gotten any. “This bill is the first step in trying to clean up the cesspool that is county government,” Trotta said. “Anybody who says the money doesn’t affect them,

suffolk county Legislator rob trotta says county campaign donations need reform.

they’re lying.” Trotta said the indictment and guilty plea of former Suffolk County Chief of Police James Burke is an example that a lack of oversight on county government has allowed corruption to run rampant. Trotta was a member of the Suffolk County Police Department for 25 years, according to his page on the county’s website. Trotta also referenced Edward Walsh,

the Suffolk County Conservative Party Chairman, who was found guilty of defrauding the Sheriff’s Office on March 31. Walsh could be sentenced to up to 30 years in jail, according to a release from the United States Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of New York. “I’m trying to take the money out of politics,” Trotta said. “Clearly, there’s a conflict there. This is why you’re seeing

all of this corruption.” Trotta said the unanimous county Legislature vote to approve the Suffolk County Police Benevolent Association contract in October 2012 was another example of potential corruption. He said he introduced a bill shortly thereafter that would shine more light on county organizations like the police department, though it didn’t gain any traction. “It makes no logical sense that there is no oversight,” Trotta said. The Suffolk County PBA and a media representative for County Executive Steve Bellone (D) did not respond to requests for comment. Trotta said he did not pour money into his own campaign to get elected to represent the 13th legislative district in 2013. He said he does not accept donations from unions, and the largest donation that he has received was about $2,500 from a friend. “I have to thank my constituents for giving me the ability to do this,” Trotta said. He added that he is fortunate to be from a strong, well-versed community who elected him despite his modest campaign spending.

Harborfields earns first win of season Boys’ Track & Field

Harborfields . . . . . . 103 Rocky Point . . . . . . . 38 By Bill landon

Rocky Point and Harborfields each looked to notch their first victory of the season Tuesday, but the Tornadoes’ boys’ track and field team blew past the Eagles on their home track, to win the League V meet, 103-38. Harborfields long jump standout Randy Maldon, a senior, was the talk of the event, taking first with a jump of 18-9 3/4, to come up well ahead of the second-place finisher. Maldon, who has competed in the event since his sophomore year, also runs winter track and said the windy conditions affected his performance despite the positive turnout. “The wind definitely throws off my steps — it’s pushing me back so I have to push harder, and it affects me in the air,” he said. “Going down the runway, I drifted to the left a little bit.” The Tornadoes flexed their muscles early, dominating, the 1,600-meter to take the top five spots. First across the line for Harborfields was sophomore James DeSantis, who won the event in 4 minutes, 59:06 seconds. Harborfields senior Jake Miller won the 3,000 in 11:28.2, finishing just ahead of teammate Alexander Martin, a junior, as both runners traded the lead several times. “It was windy, but I ran with my teammate Alex alternating laps and we would take turns blocking the wind,” Miller said. “We needed to see who had a little bit left with 800 meters left.”

Rocky Point’s Chris Valleau, a three-year varsity competitor, competed in the 200 and 400 dashes, and said he felt he underperformed. “I can run better than I did today,” the junior said, adding that it had nothing to do with the windy conditions. Rocky Point senior Kevin LaRosa, who competed in the 100 and 200, finished the races in 13 seconds and 28 seconds, respectively. “I thought we underperformed as a team today — we certainly could’ve done better,” LaRosa said. “The conditions really didn’t affect me today in the shorter races, but it does in the longer distances.” Alex DeMottie, a senior who competed in the high jump, 800 and 4x800 relay, echoed LaRosa’s and Valleau’s assessment that there was room for improvement. “It wasn’t my best performance,” DeMottie said. “I’ve got to work harder to improve my times.” Eagles head coach Chris Donadoni said in the end, his Eagles just faced a better team. “I was pleased with our shotput and discus events today ... those events are held on the lower field,” the head coach said, adding that his assistant coach said each kid threw their best in both events. “It’s a growing process with this team. They’re real young and inexperienced, so each meet is an opportunity for all of them to learn something. We’ll look at each of their performances, but more importantly, how they prepare mentally for each event. They’ve made progress in their preparation since the start of the season.” With the win, Harborfields improves to 1-2 as the Eagles fall to 0-3. The Tornadoes hit the road Tuesday April 26 to take on Kings Park at 4:30 p.m.

Reilly makes immediate impact Girls’ lacrosse

Photo from Huntington Athletics

Huntington’s Katie Reilly, on right, moves the ball downfield as Hauppauge races to block her path.

After missing the first seven games of the season recovering from knee surgery, Katie Reilly returned with a vengeance Monday. The Princeton University-bound senior showed why she is regarded as one of the premier playmakers in the country, assisting on a goal with 1.6 seconds remaining in the first half and then again on the game winner with 23.4 seconds left on the clock, as the Huntington girls’ lacrosse team pulled out a much needed 9-8 win over visiting Hauppauge. Huntington lost six of its first seven games, stung by a long list of injuries to many of its stars. Several of its top players won’t be returning to the field this season, but with Reilly back in the fold, the Blue Devils look like a different team already.

Although leading 7-2 at halftime, Huntington’s confidence diminished as Hauppauge went on a 6-1 run to tie the game with less than a minute remaining. When Reilly finally broke free from the suffocating defense, the Eagles knew what was coming next. Reilly found Emma Greenhill open, and the sophomore fired a hard shot past goalie Victoria Arancio for what proved to be the game winner. “I am so proud of the team for pulling through for this win,” Reilly said. “After a drought, we needed this to keep our spirits alive. The best part is that Emma Greenhill was sick and still managed to put it in the back of the net for the win. Let’s hope we continue on the upswing.” — Huntington atHletics

CSH robotics team takes second place At the FIRST Robotics Competition regional event at Hofstra University earlier this month, the Cyberhawks robotics team of Cold Spring Harbor High School made it to the playoffs and then the finals, where they were beaten in a tiebreaker. Club advisor John Salvia shared his pride for the team members and the robot they worked on. “We had some technical difficulties that we were working through during

the competition. However, our reputation as a dependable team and ability to work well with the other teams led Team Rice FRC 870 from Southold, and Team Mohawks 329 from Patchogue-Medford to select our Team CyberHawks 2875 as the third member of their alliance.” The group ended up being the secondplace alliance in the playoff rounds and then lost the third tiebreaker match in the final round.

OPINION LeTTer

CArTooN

Caught on camera

Art by Alphonse Ripandelli

To The ediTor: i recently had the joy of appearing in traffic court. Literally hundreds of people, one by one, appear before the judges in multiple courtrooms to plead their cases, trying to avoid an $80 or more penalty, because a car registered in their name was caught on camera not abiding 100 percent by the letter of the law. it was made perfectly clear, time and again, that the court didn’t care who drove the car. The owner of the car may have been guilty of nothing more than letting someone who needed it borrow his car. if someone uses your pencil to stab someone or your medicine to overdose themselves, are you at fault? if you give your pen to someone who uses it to sign a mortgage, are you liable to pay it? Also, the judges make it perfectly clear that this is not a question whether public safety was compromised in any way. if the camera caught you going one mile per hour over the legal limit, not coming to a complete stop before turning right on a red light, or if you stopped your car one inch over a white line on the road, you were guilty, even if no other cars were in sight or affected. No exceptions. No common sense. No mercy. No circumstances considered. The question was never whether the action was perfectly safe or sensible, only whether it was according to the letter of the law. everything was perfectly legal and completely unfair, unjust and

unreasonable. in none of the cases before the judge could i imagine a policeman or traffic cop giving a ticket for such infractions, all of them trivial. in its graciousness, the court lets you know no points are charged to your driver’s license, and you can have extra time to pay if you don’t have the money in hand. Most people plead for time till they get their next paychecks or social security checks, but still there are hundreds waiting for one of six cashier windows to be free to take their money. (i waited an hour, which is why hundreds of others just mail in the fine and don’t waste a morning at court to be heard perfunctorily, ignored and summarily sentenced.) Newly developed driverless cars, which are programmed to obey all traffic laws meticulously, are involved in twice as many accidents as cars with human drivers who exercise their judgment. The driverless cars are never at fault legally — they just weren’t able to think and adjust to circumstances. Typically, they are involved in more rear-end collisions and fender-benders, which is also true of drivers paranoid about being caught on camera. The bottom line: cameras at intersections have nothing to do with public safety and everything to do with finding ways to fleece the citizens. Just another reason why people have lost respect for government. ronald W. Stelzer, Senior Pastor our Savior Lutheran Church Centereach

Of primary concern for New York voters As the primary season in New York comes to a close, with real estate mogul donald Trump and former Secretary of State hillary Clinton winning the night for the republicans and the democrats, respectively, one of the more lingering questions is whether to have open or closed primaries. New York has a closed primary system, meaning only voters who are registered with a certain political party may vote in that party’s primary. That left millions of independent voters out of the race entirely, making many call instead for an open primary, in which voters are not

required to declare an affiliation before casting a vote in a single party’s primary race. if they had gotten involved earlier, those independents did have methods to participate in Tuesday’s primary, if they so desired. Their deadlines to register with the Board of elections passed in october. our editorial board does not support an open primary. People not affiliated with an institution should not have equal rights to its members to decide how that institution should run and who should lead it. An open primary also leaves

room for abuse. The voting system in New York — and nationwide — has already seen its fair share of that, with issues like dead people somehow casting ballots in presidential races. in an open primary, less honest people would vote for the weakest candidate in one party just so the nominee they support in the opposite party has a better shot at winning. That’s not fair and it’s not the way our system should work. New York’s primary voting system is best in its current form. Let’s leave the party votes in the hands of its actual members.

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

Between you and me By Leah S. Dunaief

T

his is in the nature of a small confession. Until this past Tuesday, I have never, to my best recollection, voted in a primary. So I guess this time offered the most exciting possibilities that drew me to the voting booth. And for that injection of enthusiasm into what has traditionally been an overlong and boring presidential election process, I guess that we ought to thank Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump. They have presented us with some

wonderful visual image that I think about it or rely on it with some regularity. Do you remember the Venn diagram? It has two adjoining circles with a varying amount of overlap in the middle, and the theory can be applied to almost any circumstance. Let’s start with sports, where passions are high, but the consequences of any single event or season are, relatively speaking, much lower. Red Sox and Yankee fans would seem to have almost nothing in common, with two circles drawn as far away on a page as humanly possible. But each year there is at least one game where a Red Sox fan might root for a Yankee and a Yankee might root for a member of the Red Sox. Yes, think about it. The all-star game determines the home field advantage for the World Series. If the result of the all-star game was on the

line and a member of the Red Sox could win the game with a home run, wouldn’t a Yankee fan begrudgingly cheer for that player in the hope that if our team made it to a seventh game of the World Series, the game would be at Yankee Stadium? There, we might get to see our team win a title instead of in a National League park. From the passion of sports to the passions in our lives, a Venn diagram can also be useful in affairs of the heart. Let’s say you’re dating and you’re exploring similarities in your partner. Do you like the same food, books and movies? Do you have the same view on the importance of family, the role you might play in a community or the value of vacation time? While all of these questions might lead to a better understanding of where you have common ground, marriage counselors or even dating services might suggest that circles

with a perfect overlap might not create a perfect couple. After all, some differences or nonoverlapping spaces might make for a refreshing extension of our own circles. Maybe, as part of these relationships, we look for ways to expand the circles that define what we know and have experienced. Even relationships that have ended can help shape ways to find common ground with someone else. Then there’s politics. We will need to pick a president in November. Do any of the candidates overlap with your circle? Maybe, instead of looking at the breadth of their campaigns, you can consider the depth or importance of any one issue, extending that middle ground into a threedimensional space. Maybe your vote will reflect whatever common ground you can find on a single issue, while rolling your eyes at the differences on

real options instead of the usual Tweedledum and Tweedledee candidates. Whatever happens from this point on, New York state has uncharacteristically played a significant part in this election. Until April, by the time we here have our primaries, the dust has usually cleared and our outcomes haven’t particularly registered on the political Richter scale. This time was different. Yes, advance polling had projected Trump and Hillary Clinton victories. But the wide margin for both was a major additional factor. With just a few precincts to report, Trump had won 60 percent of the vote in a three-way race; and Clinton won 58 percent against Sanders, holding together a wide coalition of voters more typical of the national voter profile. Some other interesting points: John Kasich came in a solid second with 25 percent; the only district Trump lost was Manhattan, his home, which went to Kasich; and Ted Cruz was a distant third which was predictable, if for no other reason than after his “New

York values” comment earlier in the contest. I have often thought that the race for president goes on far too long but I read an article recently in The New York Times that gave me a different perspective. The writer suggested that the contest could be compared to a job interview, in this case the most powerful job in the world, and that we were the employers, which as voters I guess we are. So in this long interviewing process, we get a chance to see how the candidates react when in friendly domains, when under pressure from unfriendly spectators and when they are in an adversarial role, attacking each other. These are all simulations of the job they are after, and their reactions are revealing. We also get to judge how well they manage a complex campaign over a considerable period of time. Few would disagree that the stark contrast between the campaigns of Obama and Clinton contributed to Clinton’s loss in 2008. Besides being president and commander in chief, the winner had darn well

be a good manager. Although he won the election in 1976 against Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter will go down in history as one of the U.S. presidents’ worst managers who tried in vain to micromanage throughout his four years. Ronald Reagan handily beat him in 1980 and could be known as the delegator in chief for the way he managed his administration until he became ill. Trump and Clinton, if they wind up going head-to-head in November, also offer stark contrasts. Regardless of whom one intends to vote for, few would deny that Clinton has the most experience in government and Trump has the least. This is the great advantage for Clinton and paradoxically the great advantage for Trump. People who are dissatisfied with the direction our country is headed — or their own lives — or look at government in Washington as abdication of responsibility, see Trump as an unsullied outsider capable of shaking out the deadwood and turning things around. Can he do it? He continually refers to himself as a “deal maker,”

A concept from my grammar school world still applies today. so many other topics. Ultimately, it seems that the most effective politician might not be someone who wants to fight for us, as Hillary Clinton suggests in her campaign mantra. And it might not be someone who wants to make America great again, as Donald Trump urges. Instead, it might be someone who can find the greatest common ground with other politicians and with other Americans. We know that the best policies for Iowa likely won’t be the best for New York, but there must be ways to get New Yorkers and Iowans to find a national leader who can represent all of us — and not just those who are part of our inner circle.

Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump have presented us with some real options. capable of making the United States great again. And Russian President Putin likes him, another first for an American presidential election. Clinton has the problem of being “old goods,” familiar as the paintings on the wall that go unappreciated with time. And for various reasons, people profess not to like her, as if that is a criterion for the highest office. Do they have to like her? In fact I have met her half-adozen times and unlike the public face she presents from the podium, she struck me as not only likeable but also delightful and quite human. On the other hand, do people trust her to reflect their values and do the right thing when under great stress? That is the biggest voter question, and in New York state Tuesday the answer came back a resounding “yes.” Stay tuned.
