Senate candidate Mayer booted from Indy line

OUT OF CONTROL

In an effort to help curb mass shootings seen nationwide, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo is backing a bill that would lengthen background checks for individuals purchasing firearms. The bill is currently working its way through the state Legislature. For story, see page 3.

Con Ed agrees to reimburse customers for losses After two winter storms knocked out power for thousands of Westchester residents, utility company Con Edison has agreed to reimburse some affected customers for spoiled food and medicine. On March 15, the utility company announced that it will reimburse customers who lost power for three or more consecutive days for spoiled food and medicine. According to the company, the limit to reimbursements varies from $225 to $515 if the reimbursement claim also contains receipts. Business owners are also eligible for reimbursements totaling $10,200 with receipts. After two consecutive nor’easter storms pummeled Westchester County earlier this month, downing trees and power lines, and leaving some residents without power for a week or more, lawmakers across the local, coun-

ty and state levels have begun to question the preparedness of Con Edison and New York State Energy and Gas, NYSEG, the two suppliers of energy in the county. At the storm outage peak, as many as 50,000 Westchester County residents were without power due to the confluence

of high winds and heavy snow brought by both storms. Including neighboring Rockland and Putnam counties, the total of residents without power soared to more than 100,000. While Westchester County Executive George Latimer, a Democrat, called for the resignation of the head of Con Edi-

son and NYSEG, other state lawmakers including Sen. Terrence Murphy, a Yorktown Republican, has called for a hearing to evaluate the companies’ level of storm preparedness. Murphy, who also chairs the New York State Senate Committee on Investigations and Government Operations, said that next week a hearing with members of the public, lawmakers, and officials from Con Edison and NYSEG will convene to discuss the storm response. The meeting will take place on March 22 at 6:30 p.m. in the John F. Kennedy High School auditorium in Somers. Members of the public are invited to attend and can submit written testimony to John Winton at winton@nysenate.gov. Oral testimony is given by invitation only. -Reporting by James Pero

Assemblywoman and state Senate candidate Shelley Mayer, a Democrat, was removed from the Independence Line ballot this week after a ruling came down from a state judge. The decision, by Justice Henry Zwack, ruled that because the Independence Party broke its own procedures and nominated Mayer without a quorum present, and because the meeting wasn’t properly noticed, that Mayer will not appear on the line’s ballot for an April 24 special election. Mayer has not yet appealed the decision, as of press time. The Independence Party, headed by Dr. Giulio Cavallo, endorsed Mayer in February over Republican candidate for the state 37th Senate District seat, Julie Killian. According to Board of Elections numbers, there are about 8,000 registered Independence Party voters in that district. The party is also the third biggest party in Westchester County, where Democrats outnumber Republicans by about 2-1. The 37th District boasts about 27,000 more Democratic voters over Republicans. The party’s endorsement of Mayer marks a shift from a race in 2016 when Killian—a former Rye City councilwoman— secured the line in her unsuccessful bid to unseat thenstate Sen. George Latimer, a Rye Democrat, who, in turn, vacated his seat after winning a 2017 bid for Westchester County executive. Mayer and Killian are set to go head to head in a special election next month in what will be a pivotal seat in the New York state Senate where Republicans currently maintain a slim oneseat majority over Democrats.

Republicans have been unsuccessful in their efforts to win the District 37 seat for some time, including several wellfinanced and highly organized runs against previous incumbent, Latimer. The district covers the cities of Yonkers, White Plains, New Rochelle and Rye, and the towns of Eastchester, Harrison, Mamaroneck, Rye, Bedford and North Castle. Senators are elected to two-year terms for a base salary of $79,500 per year. -Reporting by James Pero

Cuomo backs stricter gun control measures

Gov. Andrew Cuomo, a Democrat, publicly announced that he intends to support legislation that proposes expanding the background check waiting period in New York. The bill has already passed in the state Assembly, but has not yet been voted on in the Senate. Photo courtesy wikipedia.org

Gov. Andrew Cuomo, a Democrat, announced that he’s supporting legislation that would lengthen New York’s background check waiting period for purchasing a firearm. The bill, which proposes to expand the state’s current gun control law known as the SAFE, Secure Ammunition and Firearms Enforcement, Act, has already been approved by the Democrat-controlled state Assembly. The proposal would increase the waiting period to buy a gun from three days to up to 10. “Change starts with doing everything in our power to keep guns out of the hands of people too dangerous to have them,” Cuomo said in a March 18 statement. “It’s time for politicians to stand up and create real action and policy change.” As of press time, firearm dealers are already required by the federal government to administer a background check through the

National Instant Criminal Background Check System before selling a gun to any individual. However, in response to the tragedy that took place at the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, last month, in which 19-year-old gunman Nikolas Cruz shot and killed 17 students and faculty members, state lawmakers across the country are pushing for tighter gun legislation. A national debate has also erupted since that mass shooting, with politicians from both major political parties proposing ideas to combat gun violence, like banning semi-automatic weapons and arming school teachers, to name a few. State Assemblyman David Buchwald, a White Plains Democrat that has co-sponsored several recent gun reform bills, including one that proposes a ban on bump stocks and another that suggests restricting domestic abusers from

owning firearms, said, “We must keep guns out of the hands of dangerous individuals and those convicted of domestic violence crimes.” The bill to amend the SAFE Act, which was signed into law five years ago, awaits a vote of the state Senate. If approved by the state Legislature, the governor will then have the opportunity to sign the bill into law. The legislation will not impact how long it would take to purchase a handgun, as there is already a law in place in New York that requires extensive background checks to those seeking to own one. Instead, the bill would create longer background checks for those seeking to purchase other firearms, like rifles and shotguns. State law requires a six-month application process for those seeking to acquire a pistol permit in New York. -Reporting by Franco Fino

BHS students advance to state history competition After securing first and second places at the Lower Hudson Regional National History Day competition, a group of 23 students from Bronxville High School have advanced to the state competition. They will present their historical research at the New York State National Histo-

ry Day competition, which will be held in Cooperstown on April 22-23. “We are thrilled with the success of our students,” Principal Ann Meyer said. “They demonstrated a passion for their topics along with in-depth, careful research that translated into strong performanc-

es. We wish them the best of luck at the state competition.” Under the direction of teachers Dana Landesman, Bill Meyer and Christina Reidel, the students have been conducting extensive historical research on a topic of their choice over the last several months. Their authentic work focuses on this year’s National History Day theme of “Conflict and Compromise” and is displayed in one of five ways: paper, website, documentary, performance or exhibit. “National History Day taught us to work as a team and use our individual strengths to create a winnable project,” said sophomore Sabrina Mellinghoff, who worked on an exhibit, “Arusha Accords: A Genocidal Compromise,” with sophomore Emily Perry. “We are so excited about the state competition.” Sophomore Michael Burstein, who worked on a documentary, “The French-Algerian War: Tactics That Created an Inevitable Conflict,” along with Chris Hutchins, Caitlin Mooney and Sarah Whitney, said earning first place signified that all of their hard work was worth it. At the regional competition, a total of 51 students from Bronx-

ville High School were interviewed by professors and scholars and articulated what they’ve discovered through their historical research. Of them, 36 students received top honors, but only first- and second-place finalists advanced to the state competition. Congratulations to the following students who received top honors in the below categories: Websites (Individual) Second place: Max Runte (sophomore) Third place: Eva Dani (sophomore) Websites (group) Second place: Clara DeMagalhaes, Yuka Nakano and Delany O’Brien (sophomores) Third place: Justin Barr and Michael Greco (sophomores) Performances (individual) Second place: Patrick Bird (freshman) Performances (group) Second place: Xavier Layton, Theo Liao, Reid Portner and Chris Visconti (sophomores) Third place: Anton Ribka (senior) and Harry Villanueva (sophomore) Documentary (individual) Third place: Cole Zucker (sophomore) Documentary (group) First place: Michael Burstein, Chris Hutchins, Caitlin

Good nutrition is key to reducing the grip of cardiovascular disease on our nation, according to the American Heart Association/American Stroke Association AHA/ASA. AHA says a healthy diet and lifestyle are your best weapons in the fight against heart disease. Use these tips to help improve your diet during March, National Nutrition Month, and all year long. Preparing menus and grocery lists ahead of time can keep you from making impulse food choices, which often aren’t healthy. With a little planning, you can make the healthy choice the easy choice. The AHA suggests you plan out one or two weeks of healthy meals for

breakfast, lunch and dinner. Take a few minutes over the weekend to go through your favorite healthy recipes and map out your meal plan. Update your go-to list as you come across new recipes, and don’t be afraid to try new recipes and foods. Let technology guide you with an online grocery list or meal-planning app. This will help you quickly grab the ingredients you need for your healthy meal plan. If you have a busy week ahead, cook over the weekend and store pre-portioned meals in the refrigerator or freezer. Planning like this saves time and money and ensures a healthy meal-to-go. Make healthy choices accessible and easy to take with you.

BREAKFAST

• Eat melon, grapefruit or other fruit. • Add bananas, raisins or berries to your cereal. • Drink a small (6-ounce) glass of juice. Be sure it’s 100 percent fruit or vegetable juice without excess sodium or sugar, not “fruit drink,” “cocktail” or “punch.” • Add chopped up vegetables to your eggs or potatoes. Try onions, celery, green or red bell peppers, or spinach.

Cut up fruits and vegetables and keep them handy in the front of the fridge, or pre-pack individual servings for when you’re on the go. Keep small portions of almonds or whole fruit on your desk at work or in your purse, to help avert vending machine visits. Add color to your meals with fruits and vegetables. Fresh, frozen, canned and dried are all good choices—just choose low/no sodium and no sugar added items. Try colorful salad workday lunches topped with your favorite low-fat protein like chicken, salmon, tuna, beans or boiled eggs.

LUNCH

• Have a fruit or vegetable salad with lunch. • Put vegetables on your sandwich, such as cucumber, sprouts, tomato, lettuce or avocado. • Eat a bowl of vegetable soup. (Compare food labels and choose the product with the lowest amount of sodium you can find in your store, or make soup from scratch.) • Have a piece of fruit or raw veggie sticks instead of chips.

Avoid processed foods which can add massive amounts of sodium to your diet. By one recent estimate, more than half the calories, nearly 90 percent of added sugars, and 71 percent of the sodium we eat comes from processed and restaurant foods. If you’re eating out, ask for lower sodium and healthier options. The AHA recommends not more than 1,500 mg of sodium daily. Excessive sodium intake is associated with high blood pressure and can increase risk for stroke. Read menu and package labels to help you choose healthier items. Learn more at sodiumbreakup.heart.org. For recipes and other practical information to help you eat smart

SNACKS

• Keep raw veggie sticks handy, such as green or red bell peppers, green beans, celery or carrots. • Carry dried fruit, such as raisins, dates or dried apricots, in your purse or pocket. • Have any type of fresh fruit: grapes, apple, banana, orange, kiwi, etc. • On hot days, munch on a bowl of frozen fruits or vegetables, such as grapes, peas or bananas.

during National Nutrition Month and year-round, join Healthy For Good at healthyforgood.heart.org/ eat-smart. The American Heart Association is devoted to saving people from heart disease and stroke—the two leading causes of death in the world. The AHA teams with millions of volunteers to fund innovative research, fight for stronger public health policies, and provide lifesaving tools and information to prevent and treat these diseases. The Dallas-based association is the nation’s oldest and largest voluntary organization dedicated to fighting heart disease and stroke. To learn more or to get involved, visit heart.org. (Submitted)

DINNER

• Have a fruit or vegetable salad with dinner. • Add a side of steamed or microwaved vegetables; frozen veggies are fine. • When you use the oven to cook your meal, put in a whole potato, sweet potato or yam at the same time. • Add chopped vegetables like onions, garlic and celery when cooking soup, stew, beans, rice, spaghetti sauce and other sauces. • When making rice, add some frozen peas for the last three minutes of cooking.

Getting ready for springtime BRONXVILLE TODAY Mayor Mary Marvin

This past weekend was the last one of winter, dare I even say, so our thoughts are turning to spring initiatives. As you have most assuredly noticed, potholes abound in the village. Repairs have commenced and our trucks will be out for the next several weeks doing patching. With a renewed focus on our few open spaces, the village will continue to care for all lawns and plant beds by mulching in place, leaving grass clippings as fertilizer and keeping all of our properties pesticide and chemical free so children can sit on the grass and dogs may roam. Long on the back burner due to the construction of Villa BXV, we are focusing on Bacon Woods Park, fully an acre plus of open space on Kensington Road. We will be sending out requests for proposals to seek ideas and costs for improvement including refurbishment of the walk way between Sagamore and Kensington roads. We also plan to widen the sidewalk for easier walking access near the rear of Christ Church. In an effort to make our village even more pedestrian friendly, we ask you, the responsible homeowners, to maintain, repair and replace sidewalks adjacent to your home. If in disrepair and not remediated, our Public Works Department issues a “duty to repair” notice. By law, the village is responsible for all adjacent curbing. The incredibly inclement weather has kept so many of us home and traffic in our village stores suffered as a consequence. As the weather improves, please use our sidewalks to head to our business district. We have noticed gardeners back working in the village and remind residents that leaves must be bagged and not blown onto the right of way, and tree branches and debris must be tied together. For some reason this winter, we saw a huge uptick in pet waste bags being thrown into sewers. Since the bags used are usually non-biodegradable, they clog our piping system and we’ve spent unnecessary funds to clear obstructions and retrieve these bags. Our Green Committee is already gearing up for their spring initiatives, chief among them the replanting of our Community Garden. Last year our small garden generated 250 pounds of fresh vegetables that were all donated to nearby soup kitch-

ens. Though one of the wealthiest counties in the country, one in five Westchester residents do not received proper nourishment. The Green Committee is also looking into the composting of food scraps. Scarsdale and Larchmont have led the way and their programs are a huge success. Home renovation and even smaller projects traditionally commence in early spring, and large or small, most often require a building permit from the village. If you anticipate any work on your home, start by calling the village Building Department at 3377338. The staff can guide you as to whether permits or variances are required. Undertaking work without permits results in the doubling of fees, both on the cost of the permit itself and the estimate of the value of the project. Many residents are running into this problem when they go to place their home for sale and find projects have no valid certificate of occupancy so the home cannot be transferred. Even seemingly small projects, such as electrical or plumbing work, need permits. The overriding concern is safety both for one’s own home and nearby neighbors. The terms of a village permit allow work to be done from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. on weekdays only. If the project is one for which a permit is not required, for example painting, work can be done on weekends. However, even work acceptable to do on weekends must respect the village’s noise ordinance and not create an undue disturbance. Villagers can call the Police Department with any noise concerns. After a permit request is filed, work cannot commence until the permit request is reviewed and signed off on by the Building Department. All building permit requirements and applications are now available on our website. Walkways, patios, sheds, emergency generators, roof replacements and fences require building permits. After the past few weeks, we are mourning the loss of way too many trees, both public and private in the village. The village will be feeding, fertilizing and trimming the street trees and ask you to do the same. The village is now one of only a few communities not to have a tree ordinance as we have historically relied on the foresight and stewardship of residents to value this intrinsic asset. As part of our new comprehensive plan, we will revisit the issue. Preserving our municipal trees will be front and center this

spring. The village-owned trees serve architectural and engineering functions beyond their aesthetic value. They enhance building design, reduce glare and reflection, screen unsightly areas, muffle urban noise and reduce the “heat island effect” caused by pavement and commercial buildings. As an added plus, trees grow in value as they age while most other municipal assets, including roads and sewers, decline in value. Trees on private property produce even greater monetary value. Studies have demonstrated that 10 to 23 percent of the value of a residence is based on its tree stock. A municipality also captures some of this monetary value as enhanced property values increase assessed values and the resulting tax base. Trees also provide important symbolic links with the past and are important often simply because they have lived through eras with which we have few other connections left. The warmer weather also brings an increase in door-to-door solicitations. Individuals selling goods cannot do so legally without first receiving a permit from the village. Do not hesitate to call the Police Department if the salesperson cannot produce their permit. Upon investigation, the police have found that some of the charities that were purported to benefit from our purchases were nonexistent. The First Amendment does protect all those “selling” an idea or cause so groups such as Jehovah Witnesses or Greenpeace do not need permission to ring your bell. To limit this kind of visit, a small “No Solicitation” sign near the front door has proven effective. Spring also brings greater turnover of residents in village houses and apartments. Residents of some of our townhomes and apartment complexes often rent parking spaces on a first-come, first-serve basis. However, when one sells or purchases a unit, the parking space is not part of the deed of transfer. This confusion has led to many frustrated new purchasers. However, there is a solution. If you plan on purchasing in the village, one can put their name on the waiting list in anticipation of purchase. Conversely, if you plan on selling in the not too distant future, you may put your name on the waiting list as well to save a spot for your anticipated purchaser. You will also see us sprucing up village benches, receptacles, polishing plaques and bringing everything out from under the winter blanket.

Surrounded by cured meats, fine cheeses, grilled vegetables and fresh donuts, Westchester County Executive George Latimer joined The Valley Table magazine Publisher Janet Crawshaw, co-owners of L’inizio Heather and Scott Fratangelo, Westchester Community College, WCC, President Dr. Belinda Miles and students from WCC’s culinary program to kick off Hudson Valley Restaurant Week, HVRW, for spring 2018. Latimer said, “Over 100 Westchester restaurants are participating in Hudson Valley Restaurant Week, a testament to the county’s thriving food scene. It’s a true culinary celebration and an opportunity for residents, and visitors alike, to choose from a variety of delicious cuisines at a great price. We are thrilled to be a part of it.” L’inizio was started in 2013 by award-winning New York City chefs Scott and Heather Fratangelo. They bring their delicious, Italian-inspired cuisine to Westchester. Trained at the French Culinary Institute, executive pastry chef/co-owner Heather Fratangelo creates original desserts. Heather Fratangelo said, “We are honored to host this fantastic celebration. The dining scene has grown exponentially in the five years since we’ve been here, and we look forward to seeing what’s next.” Publisher of The Valley Table magazine Crawshaw said, “This

two-week event, now in its 12th year, gives diners the opportunity to sample a variety of delicious cuisines throughout the region. Westchester has a vibrant dining scene and we encourage people to grab a friend, get out and try something new.” HVRW celebrates top restaurants, giving diners the opportunity to enjoy exceptional dining at an approachable price point. Three-course, prix fixe dinners are $32.95 and lunches are $22.95 (plus beverage, tax and tip). During HVRW, which runs from March 12-25, diners can sample delicious dishes throughout the county. A complete list of participating restaurants is available at valleytable.com/hvrw. In 1996, Crawshaw and Jerry Novesky took an eight-month sabbatical, traveling 35,000 miles across the country seeking authentic American experiences. They found that local farms, bakeries, fish markets, wineries and breweries were the key to understanding the country’s distinct regions. Inspired by their trip and the Chefs Collaborative, an educational sustainable food movement, the couple returned to their home in the Hudson Valley with a mission to awaken the region’s food consciousness. In 1998, they launched The Valley Table, a colorful quarterly, magazine that celebrates the agricultural heritage and cuisine of the region, leading the devel-

opment of the Hudson Valley’s local food movement. Crawshaw and Novesky launched Hudson Valley Restaurant week in 2006 with a distinguished board of advisors, including chefs, restaurateurs and tourism leaders. The two-week culinary event premiered with 70 restaurants. Today, with more than 185 participating restaurants spanning seven counties, it is among the largest restaurant week events in the country. Participating counties include Dutchess, Westchester, Columbia, Orange, Putnam, Rockland and Ulster. It has become a successful collaborative effort involving farmers, growers, wine makers and chefs.

Brackets busted? LIVE MIKE Mike Smith

I’m not generally one to gloat, but I’ll go ahead and say it: when it comes to defending my refusal to fill out a March Madness bracket, I kind of told you so. We’re just two rounds into this year’s NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament, and I have to admit, not coming up with any picks or predictions this year has really paid off in spades from an entertainment standpoint. This year’s tourney, more than any other I can remember, has been absolutely rife with upsets. We’ve seen the first ever 16-1 upset, as an unheralded UMBC team knocked off top overall seed Virginia in the opening round. In fact, heading into the Sweet 16, both No. 1 seeds from the left side of the bracket—the Cavaliers and Xavier—have already been eliminated, as have both No. 2 seeds. Even for someone who has been watching college basketball

for as long as I have, that seems pretty odd, to say the least. Unprecedented may be a better way to put it, as this year’s South region will become the first region in the tournament’s history to head into the Sweet 16 with all top four seeds eliminated. Had I been involved in a money pool, I’m sure this sort of shocking occurrence would have destroyed my brackets—there are no perfect national brackets left, in fact—and led to much consternation on my end. But since I’m free to watch the tournament as an unattached observer? It’s been magical. Jordan Poole’s buzzer-beater to beat Houston, Nevada’s amazing 22-point comeback to down Cincinnati; these have been alltime great tournament moments that I’ve gotten to experience without worrying whether or not they’ve busted my brackets. Heck, I might be even more pumped for No. 11 seed Loyola Chicago’s improbable run to the Sweet 16 than 98-year-old Rambler super fan Sister Jean, who

reportedly didn’t even have her boys moving on past the second round in her own bracket. Maybe I got lucky choosing this as the year I was going to watch the games without a rooting interest. Perhaps had we seen a number of heavily favored teams advancing, I would have lost interest already. But that hasn’t been the case, so I’m certainly thankful that I didn’t have any money on the line. The team I root for, Villanova, is still alive, as is the team I love to root against in Duke. But beyond that, there’s a glut of likeable underdogs to support, including defensive-minded Syracuse, the Ramblers and Nevada, whose head coach, the excitable Eric Musselman, has quickly become a media darling thanks to his, well, “expressive” postgame antics. So you can bet I’ll be tuning in when the action starts up again on Thursday night. If the next four rounds pack in even half as much excitement as the first two, the remainder of this tournament is

be able to watch with the same carefree wonder as I have. Trust me, it’s been worth it.
