John T. Mather Memorial Hospital is calling on the community to donate blood at its annual summer blood drive on Aug. 14. Blood donations are critical in the summer, the Port Jefferson hospital said, because demand grows with increased motor vehicle crashes and donations usually drop as people go on vacation. High schools and colleges that typically host blood drives, accounting for a quarter of donations, are also out of session. Mather’s blood drive will be held in the Bloodmobile on the east side of the hospital, near the thrift shop, between 6:30 a.m. and 6:30 p.m. No appointment is necessary. All contributors will receive gift cards and treat bags to thank them for their donations.

He’s gentle and kind and loving, Valerie Sanks, of Rocky Point, explains. He’s got a Frank Sinatra debonair-style class, he’s well mannered, good in the car and loves people, especially children. His name is Bravo and — sorry ladies — he’s not human. But, he’s still a great catch — or should we say fetch — with the capacity to love unconditionally. He also isn’t taken, and on Aug. 15 he could be yours. Brookhaven Town will be waiving its animal shelter fees on Saturday, Aug. 15, in honor of a Clear the Shelter event that seeks to encourage adoptions of the shelter’s many dogs and cats. Sanks, a Brookhaven animal shelter volunteer and dog owner, said dogs like Bravo who have lived in the shelter for extended periods of time often have trouble getting adopted because of factors beyond their control like age, injury and appearance. Bravo, a terrier mix, is estimated to be between 7 and 9 years old and has cropped ears. He was originally adopted from the shelter in 2011, but when his owners fell on hard times in 2014 he was brought back and is now in need of a new home. “He has every odd against him for getting a home,” said Sanks, but despite this, “he’s very sweet and very mellow.” Sanks also volunteers at the Riverhead and Southold towns animal shelters and described herself as “a firm believer in town shelters.” She referred to the staff at the Brookhaven shelter as “an incredible

group of workers.” “When a dog needs something, people use their own money to buy it for them,” she said. “Town workers, on their day off, come down to the shelter just to walk the dogs.” While the town and volunteers are trying to get more people to adopt the animals, Sanks said additional volunteers are always needed. “Volunteering is needed immensely,” she said. “Especially when you have a shelter that could hold 80 plus dogs.” Volunteers spend outdoor time with the dogs, take them on walks and give them treats, but helping out is not limitADOPTION continued on page A11

Brookhaven adopts county’s model solar code Supreme Court judge throws out Shoreham solar lawsuit By Erika karp

S

Brookhaven Town reached the trifecta of adopting renewable energy codes when it embraced Suffolk County’s model solar code last week. After previously adopting the county’s geothermal and wind energy codes, the Brookhaven Town Board approved the one for solar, which will permit solar energy production facilities by planning board special permit in the town’s industrial zones. According to Suffolk County Planning Commission Chairman Dave Calone, the town is the first in the county to adopt all three model codes. “Brookhaven is the place where renewable energy is moving forward,” Calone said prior to a public hearing on the matter on Aug. 6. Deputy Town Attorney Beth Reilly said the code applies to the town’s industrial districts, L Industrial 1, light industry; L Industrial 2, heavy industry; and L Industrial 4. Permitted uses in light industry include banks, agricultural or nursery uses, places of worship, day cares, health clubs, manufacturing within a building, offices and warehouse spaces, while uses in heavy industry include manufacturing of asphalt, cement fertilizers, and chemicals; junkyards; farmers markets and

stockyards. L4 districts deal solely with the generation, transmission and distribution of electrical energy. “The intent of this section [is] to provide adequate safeguards for the location, siting and operation of solar production facilities,” the code states. The day before the Town Board’s adoption, a state Supreme Court judge dismissed a lawsuit against the town, its planning board and zoning board of appeals that sought to overturn the town’s approvals for a solar-energy production facility in Shoreham. Eight Shoreham residents listed under the community group Shoreham Wading River Advocates for Justice filed the lawsuit in November against the town entities, along with sPower, a renewable energy company based in Utah and California, and utilities PSEG Long Island and the Long Island Power Authority. sPower has an agreement to sell power generated at a future 50,000-solar panel facility, located on the DeLalio Sod Farm, to PSEG. Many residents who live near the farm have advocated against it, saying the project is too large for a residential area. Calone said he believes the new solar code, which outlines where the solar arrays should be located, will lead

to new projects being welcomed to communities. The total coverage of solar panels cannot exceed 60 percent of the lot area and freestanding panels cannot reach more than 20 feet above the ground, according to the code, which also adds buffer and setback restrictions. In addition, the code outlines design standards for the solar panels. Supervisor Ed Romaine (R) thanked

Calone and Councilmembers Valerie Cartright (D-Port Jefferson Station), Jane Bonner (C-Rocky Point) and Connie Kepert (D-Middle Island), who worked with the county on the code. “The one thing that is so beneficial is getting uniform code that can apply to all 10 towns so there is no guessing,” Romaine said. “It isn’t different from one town to another. It makes it simple for alternative energy to move forward.”

WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT AT THIS PUBLIC HEARING

The approval of the Central Pine Barrens Commission is a key and the final authority on whether the Kent Animal Shelter may rebuild its aging facility on the site where it has been located since it was established in 1968. Unless we are permitted to rebuild, the shelter and the pets we serve face an uncertain future! The planned project would have many important environmental benefits to the Peconic River, Pine

Barrens Corridor, and groundwater from the removal of three antiquated buildings, the new sanitary and storm water drainage systems and the native plant re-vegetation efforts. An environmentally friendly, community oriented, energy efficient, aesthetically pleasing facility will help countless homeless animals for generations to come. Please show your support by attending this important public hearing.

Mustangs lax standout will move from ground to air Danny Bullis, who helped lead Mount Sinai to a county title this spring, will compete for St. Joseph’s University Hawks By Desirée Keegan

After playing his freshman year at St. Anthony’s, Danny Bullis transferred back to Mount Sinai, and he and his team couldn’t be happier with his decision. Harold Drumm, the Mount Sinai boys’ lacrosse head coach, first saw the now college-bound attackman when he was in sixth grade, playing on a club team. “We knew he was going to be a special player,” he said. “He was really good and you could see it even at that age. He just really understood the game and we were excited for him to come on up.” Drumm would have pulled Bullis up to the varsity level when he was a freshman, but the attack decided to try out St. Anthony’s and upon transferring back to Mount Sinai his sophomore year, made the varsity team. “He was the quarterback of the offense for the last three years,” Drumm said. “This year he really came into his own and became the talented and determined player that we knew he could become.” The team went 8-8 his first year on the team, where Bullis scored 21 goals and added 27 assists. In his junior year, the Mustangs went 9-6 and the attack tallied 22 goals and 39 assists. “We haven’t really had a player like Danny since I’ve been the head coach here,” Drumm said. “We had a couple of

it seems that switching to lacrosse was another move in the right direction for Bullis, who was unanimously voted an All-American and the Attackman of the Year for Division II. “It’s one of my greatest accomplishments,” Bullis said of the All-American nod. “Not as great as the county title, though,” he added, laughing. According to Drumm, St. Joseph’s is a budding lacrosse program that he thinks is a perfect fit for Bullis. For the player’s mother, Janine, she’s just excited to see how far her son has come in the sport. “The older he got the more he practiced and the more he strived to become the player that he is,” she said. “I’m so proud of how far he’s come. It’s something that I never expected. I don’t even have the words to describe how exciting it is as a parent to watch the progress of not only Danny, but the entire team.” Bullis said he plans to take a lot of what Drumm taught him with him to college, and he’s hoping it will make him successful at the next level. “Coach Drumm is one of my favorite coaches,” he said. “Training with him throughout the last few years has made me not only a lot better of a player, but a better person. He taught me hard work will outwork talent when talent’s not working hard, and I’m never going to give up.”

More mosquitos test positive for West Nile By Rohma aBBas

Twenty-six mosquito samples and one bird have tested positive for West Nile virus in various parts of Suffolk County, Dr. James L. Tomarken, the county’s health commissioner, announced last week. Two samples from each of Northport, East Northport, Huntington Station, Nesconset and Port Jefferson; and one sample in each of Greenlawn, Selden, North Babylon and West Islip tested positive for the virus. Five samples from West Babylon, four from Farmingville and three from Lindenhurst were also positive. All samples

were collected on July 29, according to the county. The bird, an American crow, was collected on July 31 from Port Jefferson. To date this year, 46 mosquito samples and four birds have tested positive for West Nile Virus. West Nile virus was first detected in birds and mosquito samples in Suffolk County in 1999. It is transmitted to humans by the bite of an infected mosquito. No humans or horses have tested positive for West Nile virus in Suffolk this year. While Dr. Tomarken said there’s no cause for alarm, he urged residents to take steps to reduce exposure to the virus.

Residents should eliminate stagnant water, where mosquitoes breed. Popular breeding grounds include tin cans, plastic containers, ceramic pots, discarded tires, wading pools, wheelbarrows and birdbaths. In addition, residents can make sure their roof gutters are draining properly, clean debris from the edges of ponds and drain water from pool covers. Minimize outdoor activities between dusk and dawn to avoid mosquito bites, make sure windows and doors have screens and wear clothing that covers you when outdoors for long periods of time, or when the bugs are more active. To report dead birds, which may indicate the presence of the virus, residents should call the county’s West Nile virus hotline at 631-7872200, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday. Residents are encouraged to take a photograph of any bird in question.

ed to direct interaction with the animals. Sanks noted that even things as simple as dropping off a jar of peanut butter, a toy or a warm blanket or towel can do a great deal to ensure that these animals remain happy and healthy. “The most exciting day is when we have a volunteer meeting,” she said. “Af-

ter the meeting is over, everybody goes to get their dogs and I stand in the parking lot and watch all the volunteers come out.

award was a shock. “She’s quite surprised because that’s her way of life, and the sad part is, not everybody is like she is,” Susane Lim said about Hulmes. Lim is one of Hulmes’ system directors at the company. Within the seven months they have known one another, Hulmes is one of Lim’s favorite people at work. To nominate an employee for this annual award, employees must select one of their peers and discuss why they embody the company’s values on an online application. A small ceremony is held for recipients of the award. CHS President and CEO Alan Guerci presented Hulmes with the award during the ceremony. Although Hulmes does not deal with CHS patients, she helps patients receive affordable care. CHS helps members of the community that can’t afford traditional health care. The company helps find sources that can offset the cost of an appointment for the patients it serves. According to Lim, the company has a variety of plans for those who can’t afford health care. The plans also take the individual’s income into consideration. But working at CHS isn’t the only way Hulmes likes to give back to her community. Hulmes is also a member of St. Anthony’s Parish in Rocky Point. She reads at mass and also teaches religion to children preparing for confirmation. While Hulmes said she tries to “sit back and have things come to [her],” she checks the parish’s bulletin to see where she can help her community. The bulletin has led her to unique experiences like Clown Ministry, where church members or those who work at nursing homes or day care centers dress up like clowns and visit different parts of the community. Hulmes said dressing up can help people who struggle to communicate. The costume may help them relax and be more comfortable. “We have different layers of relationships in life ... but I think once we figure out how to go beyond that and love the community, to love the people we work with, to love the people we don’t know or haven’t met yet, I think that’s when ... we can truly grow and evolve and make a difference in the world, and I think that’s what’s most important to me,” Hulmes said. Hulmes’ attitude has made a difference in the lives of some of her co-workers as well, as she reminds her co-workers to enjoy themselves and that they can count on her if they need anything. “She helps us remember that we’re all human and that we all need to laugh and we have more important reasons for being here,” Lim said.

Daisy was added to the family 6 years later and the two became the best of friends, even sleeping together in the same crate. Then their family decided to move...and to leave them behind. Disposable. They need a new home and we’d love to keep them together, to lessen their heartbreak a little.

A rain garden in Rocky Point is a pretty way to collect stormwater runoff.

EDITORIAL

Send stormwater runoff to watery grave

Just about every time there’s any significant rainfall on the North Shore, our newsroom gets an advisory against swimming in our local waters — mostly embayments off the Long Island Sound. As it issues the advisories, the Suffolk County Department of Health Services always explains that stormwater runoff increases bacteria levels in waterways, and because these little nooks and crannies of water along the North Shore do not flush out as quickly as other places, it can be unhealthy to go for a dip. Stormwater runoff is an environmental issue we talk about a lot, but it seems we are not actually addressing the problem. There’s so much pavement in our residential and commercial developments that rainwater has nowhere to go but toward the sea, and it carries with it all the dirt, chemicals and trash it passes along the way. The ideal solution is increasing the amount of permeable surface in our neighborhoods so the runoff goes into the ground instead, where it is naturally filtered.

We can do that by taking note of the locations we see to be in the most need of improvement and calling on our elected officials to install more catch basins, which absorb and help filter the runoff. We can also lobby for our municipalities — and even our businesses as well — to use permeable surfaces in parking lots or driveways. These absorbent pavements are not just fantasy; they exist and, though they are more expensive than asphalt, would save us a ton of money on stormwater and environmental maintenance costs in the future. And most importantly, no matter the cost, they would help protect the only home planet we have. On a personal level, we can help our local bodies of water by planting rain gardens on our properties, as they help absorb stormwater runoff, and by refusing to use harmful chemicals to treat our lawns. Everyone can do something to ease the burden of bacteria on our waterways. Protecting the environment is a group effort, so we all need to step up to the plate.

A view of the Setauket Methodist Church from Route 25A in times gone by, when the area was known as Chicken Hill.

Situated on a high bluff ... TO THE EDITOR: A newly appointed minister to the Setauket Methodist Church in 1897, aptly described the church building as “situated on a high bluff and exposed to the strong east and north winds, with tall spire and inadequate bracing.” The Rev. Warren I. Bowman went on in great detail about the horrendous condition of both the interior and exterior of the church he was called to serve. Noted also were leaks in the belfry and the hand-dug basement that had never been finished and was in a condition that rendered it practically useless. An appeal was sent out to the congregation and others in

the area. A year later the Rev. Bowman happily reported “the people’s response was so generous that at the completion of the work sufficient money was on hand to cover all expenditures.” Through the 145 years that the Setauket Methodist Church has sat on that high bluff, there have been many changes, improvements and additions to the building. Both the Van Brunt and Norton wings were added, new organs purchased, offices added, as well as two steeples erected to replace the original one. Our most recent renovation was of our sanctuary in 2010, when wallpaper was removed and a fresh coat of paint applied. Now our congregation has embarked on a project called So All May Enter. To help make our church more handicapped

accessible, work has begun to add a wheelchair lift and wheelchair accessible bathroom. The estimated cost of this project is more than $100,000. Already many of our friends, current members and those who are no longer in the area have generously contributed to the project. Our church family would be most grateful for any financial gift(s) toward the completion of the project. Thank you. Gifts may be mailed to: Setauket United Methodist Church, Attn: Financial Secretary, 160 Main St., East Setauket, NY 11733. Still situated on the high bluff, may our church, known as The Light on the Hill, continue to shine. Cecelia Lundquist East Setauket

Cavalier charge in Cleveland

D. None of the above by DaNiel DuNaief

vtimes@tbrnewspapers.com

A

friend of mine recently shopped for a dishwasher with son, age 8. He checked out all the specifications from one to the next, examining the price, checking out the Energy Star rating and comparing the colors to the other appliances in his kitchen. The salesman gave the father and son team an overview of all the features. When my friend

asked about the energy efficiency, the salesman suggested he could get one with a particular rating, but it was not that big of a deal. My friend’s son insisted, “Hey, it protects the environment. You need to tell people that when they’re buying it.” My friend does energy research, where he tries to find the most efficient way to produce energy, although not for dishwashers necessarily. He spends his days designing, developing and refining plans to reduce greenhouse gas emissions while keeping down the cost of supplying the energy. When he told me this story, he said he realized that his son, who didn’t always seem to pay attention to what his father said, was listening. When our kids were young, my wife and I used to say, “The recorder is on.” That was a reminder that we might be venturing into conversational areas that weren’t appropriate for our children or that we might want to

avoid saltier language. Did treading lightly around difficult subjects and avoiding curses help our children at all? Well, we’d like to think so, at least back then. Still, the way we speak to, about or in front of our children matters. That brings me to the recent Republican presidential debate at the home of the Cleveland Cavaliers, and near the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. There was a candidate, Donald Trump, who made some pejorative comments about a moderator for the debate, Megyn Kelly of Fox News. He continued to go on the attack, even suggesting that Kelly should apologize to him for her tough questions. Even in the moment, when challenged by a woman about his perspective on women, he insisted, with some effective humor, that he didn’t have time for political correctness and that he wasn’t referring to all women, only one, with whom he has an ongoing public feud. But wait, a politician, who

wants to be the leader of our country and of the free world, doesn’t have time for political correctness? Yeah, I get it, he’s barnstorming around the country, full of bluster and self-importance, blending entertainment and outrage in one big, hairy ball. What happened to the notion of nuanced negotiations? Shouldn’t our leaders demonstrate the kind of statesmanship that enables them to discuss important matters with the leaders of other nations, without running the risk of alienating them and damaging our negotiating position? Maybe Trump, the latest guy running for president, has a corollary to President Theodore Roosevelt’s “speak softly and carry a big stick” ideology. Perhaps he believes he’ll be more effective if he speaks loudly and brashly and carries a big stick. Whatever his philosophy, it seems like the manner in which he delivers his messages isn’t exactly what we might like from a

Republican presidential debate rocks and rolls. role model for our country and for the world. Does attacking the moderator of a debate in which he’s trying to demonstrate his leadership skills underscore his effectiveness as a leader? Perhaps Trump, and we, might want to consider the lessons we teach. If he was in a store buying a dishwasher with a younger relative, would he really want the next generation to insult the salesman and then demand an apology? Whatever, Cleveland was rocking and the rest of the United States watched in record numbers.
