County announces $300K WHERE grant for shared services

The Larchmont Arts Festival, which will take place on Oct. 5, bringing together painters, sculptors, photographers, ceramicists and jewelry designers. For more, see page 6.

Focused on finding additional savings for Westchester County taxpayers, County Executive George Latimer announced a $295,750 state grant for the County-Wide Shared Services Program. The funding will be used to implement the Westchester Shares Online Shared Services Portal Project. The Portal will serve as an online database of all available equipment and services that can be shared between the county, local governments, municipalities and school districts. “The Shared Services initiative was designed to help our local municipalities find ways to save taxpayer dollars by sharing resources, technology and areas of expertise,” Latimer said. “The Westchester Shares Online Shared Services Portal will help to streamline that process, by creating a centralized location where each municipality can log on and see what equipment and services may be available to them. I’d like

Board strengthens protections for building service workers On Sept. 16, the Westchester County Board of Legislators voted on a bipartisan basis, 16-1, to strengthen a law protecting building service workers like cleaning staff and maintenance personal, who face displacement when building ownership or service contracts change hands. The Displaced Service Employees Protection Law was originally passed also by a vote of 16-1 in 2013. It created a required transition period, during which new employers must offer workers the chance to remain on the job. It also created a time frame for those offers and for that transitional employment, and created

limits on the size of contractors who are covered. The changes passed Monday lower the threshold for covered contractors from 15 to 5 employees and extend the transitional employment period from 60 days to 90 days. In addition, there are expanded requirements for information sharing to ensure that workers know in a timely manner precisely whom they must communicate with at the new employer. County Legislator Catherine Borgia, one of the co-sponsors, said, “Since 2013, it became clear that there were provisions that needed to change. We needed to

prevent employers from making an end run around the spirit of the law by using small companies, or avoiding their obligations by not being sufficiently transparent in their communications with workers. We want to make sure the law does what it was intended to do—protect working families in Westchester.” Lenore Friedlaender, assistant to the president of 32BJ SEIU and head of the union in the Hudson Valley, said, “When employers try to circumvent the intent of the law in an effort to reduce wages and benefits it destabilizes the playing field and creates a destructive race to the

bottom. Workers wages, benefits and job security suffer as a result.” “We all understand that our jobs could change very suddenly, if an owner of a building changes the contractor. I have seen it happen to friends of mine,” said Maria Trejo, a cleaner at the BOSCES School in Valhalla and a member of 32BJ. “That is why we first passed the Displaced Worker Law. But we need to make that law stronger. We need to make sure that new contractors don’t hide, and it’s important that small contractors follow the rules just like big contractors.” (Submitted)

to thank the Governor and our partners at the state for their tremendous leadership in moving this project forward.” Once the Portal is complete, each municipality will be able to upload information about the equipment and services they wish to “share” with other municipalities and Westchester County, creating an online catalog of cost savings. The county will be hosting a Shared Services public hearing to hear from residents about ways they feel the county can create savings and government efficiencies. The County-Wide Shared Services public hearing is as follow: · Monday, Sept. 23 at 4 p.m. Westchester County Board of Legislators 148 Martine Ave., 8th Floor White Plains, NY 10601 Westchester County hopes to have the Westchester Shares Online Shared Services Portal completed by the end of the year.

Board celebrates Hispanic Heritage Month The Westchester County Board of Legislators recognized Hispanic Heritage Month with a special ceremony on Sept. 16, honoring two community leaders. Sally Ocasio-Pinto, who oversees intergenerational literacy pro-

grams in school districts across Westchester County as interim director of Jewish Council of Yonkers-Westchester Community Partners, was presented with a proclamation by Legislator Virginia Perez.

Speaking to legislators Monday night, the 23-year resident of Yonkers who is of Puerto Rican descent, said she sees the positive impact of her programs on the Hispanic community where she works and lives.

“Our programs are open to everyone, but a lot of the participants are Hispanic children, many of whom are new to this country but are still expected to graduate high school in four years,” Ocasio-Pinto said. “I am truly honored to receive this award and because I recognize so many faces of the legislators who have come to our programs, I know I am here with family.” Carmenza “Carry” Cubillos received a proclamation from Legislator Catherine Borgia. As cultural programming specialist for the Ossining Public Library, she has spearheaded and expanded the library’s Spanish-language programming for two decades. Emigrating from Bogota, Columbia as an adult, she felt firsthand the frustration of not being able to communicate. Observing so many others sharing her experience of being shut out because they did not yet speak English inspired her to serve the Ossining community through the library. “We create programs where everyone can feel welcome and belong to something,” said Cubillos. “If they need something, we find it for them. I believe that the

more we know about each other, the less differences we will see.” At this year’s celebration, the legislators, honorees and guests enjoyed a special performance by

Mariachi Juvenil Los Tigres of White Plains High School. Led by bandleader Zachary May, the students played two pieces from their repertoire. (Submitted)

Latimer celebrates “Car Free Day” in the Hudson Valley

For the second consecutive year, Westchester County Executive George Latimer is asking that all drivers leave their cars at home on Friday, Sept. 20 in celebration of “Car Free Day” in the Hudson Valley.

For the second consecutive year, Westchester County Executive George Latimer is asking that all drivers leave their cars at home on Friday, Sept. 20 in celebration of “Car Free Day” in the Hudson Valley. The event, sponsored by the county Department of Public Works and Transportation’s SMART Commute Program, is designed to encourage alternatives to single occupant driving, such as the use of mass transit, carpooling, biking or walking to your destination. Latimer said: “While we are all in the habit of getting into our cars to drive to work each day, this Car Free Day, I am asking that you try to find one specific way to celebrate sustainable transportation,” Latimer said. “Whether you take the bus, ride to work with a colleague, or take a walk to your local deli or coffee shop instead of using your car at lunch time, any action can make a difference.” Join the SMART Commute team, along with 511NY Rideshare and Lime, for a Car Free Day Celebration at the White

Plains TransCenter near the BeeLine Bus Lanes on Friday, Sept. 20 from 7 a.m. to 11 a.m. Stop by to learn about sustainable transportation options, enjoy free samples, bike rides and raffles. “The 511NY Rideshare Team is thrilled to partner with Westchester County Government,” said Heliana Higbie, 511NY Rideshare regional program manager. “We are grateful for their efforts to make the county more bike, pedestrian and transit accessible. Last September, more than 1,200 Hudson Valley residents left their cars at home or drove them less to celebrate Car Free Day. This year, we are excited to celebrate at the Westchester County Government event.” The Westchester County Department of Public Works and Transportation is also using Car Free Day to highlight the county’s Smart Commute Program, which provides information to increase the use of mass transit alternatives. The program is comprised of a team of transpor-

tation advisors, and is available free of charge as part of Westchester County and New York State’s commitment to reducing congestion on our roadways and improving air quality. “The Smart Commute team is very excited to bring Car Free Day to White Plains this year,” said Hugh Greechan, commissioner of the Westchester County Department of Public Works and Transportation. “On an average weekday we have approximately 6,000 Bee-Line riders who start or end their trip at the White Plains Transit Center. This is a day to celebrate all of our riders who are making a difference and choosing a sustainable mode of transportation.” Help make Car Free Day 2019 a great success, take the pledge to go car free. For Bee-Line Bus information, visit westchestergov.com/beelinebus or call the Bee-Line customer service center at 813-7777, Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Automated information is available 24 hours a day.

By Andy Landorf & John Colquhoun

The New 60 is a weekly look about what it’s like to be in your 60’s in today’s world: adult children living at home, downsizing (jobs and houses), finding old friends on Facebook and deciphering text-speak. It’s a Brave New World of second homes, second careers and second marriages…and finding out after a lifetime of milkshakes and ice cream that you’re suddenly lactose-intolerant. The New 60 is created by two local 60-plus Westchester residents, John Colquhoun of Bronxville and Andy Landorf, who hails from Tarrytown. The duo are long-time advertising creatives and this, as the saying goes, is their Act II. Even though it features folks in their 60’s, if you know someone who is 60, have a parent who’s 60 or just generally enjoy watching funny things happen to other people, you’ll find something to relate to here—you may even find yourself saying, “Hey, that happened to me!” To read more of the New 60, visit their website at thenew60comic.com.

festival can purchase original art of varying price ranges, directly from the artists. This year, the featured artist is The Palmer Collective, a group of six local women photographers who will present their diverse talents in a show titled “ Elusive Stories.” The Palmer Collective began as a photography group in Larchmont 15 years ago. It’s founder, local fine art photographer and educator Palmer Davis (also a founder of the Larchmont Arts Festival), guided students in home-based private instruction focused on aesthetic and theory. With Palmer’s guidance these photographers have grown in expertise and today the Collective includes Stacey Ewald, Michele Gowda, Patti Roberts, Susan Rose, Ellen Washburn Martin and Sandra Wong Geroux. Last year, realizing that the group was ready for new leadership, Palmer asked Kristin Osterberg, one of the original members, to take over leadership of the group. With Osterberg’s “insightful critiques and inspired creative direction,” Palmer was confident that the group would be in good hands. Osterberg assigns weekly projects on themes, content and composition, often related to the work and inspiration of well-known photographers and artists. As a painter and working artist, Osterberg puts emphasis on “the importance of showing up and doing the work, putting in the time and finding one’s voice.”

The Palmer Collective’s show, “Elusive Stories,” will present evocative narratives that invite question and introspection. Coming from a diverse background of inspiration and insight, the photographers’ works will stir emotions and tickle curiosities. Some of the photos share insight into the home front, taking a sideways glance at aging and marriage, while other photos capture shadow and light to illuminate stories both lost and found. “Elusive Stories” is sure to delight and inspire festival goers. The Larchmont Arts Festival is a free, family friendly event. In addition to art, the festival also offers live music performed by local musicians and art activities for kids. Constitution Park is located on Larchmont Avenue, across the street from the library. For more information on the Larchmont Arts Festival, please visit our Facebook page: https:// www.facebook.com/larchmontartsfestival/. Information for artists: Registration deadline is Sept. 21. All works of art must be handmade by the artist. There is a $20 registration fee. There is no commission on sales.

Members of the Action Research for Community Change, a student-run think tank at Rye Neck High School, received proclamation awards on Sept. 9 in recognition of their research on public perceptions of water quality. The students – junior Gabriel Miller and seniors Sean Diamond and Owen Robertson, and graduates Andrew Alcin, Renue Chin and Ryan Germani—conducted a consumer confidence survey on behalf of the Westchester Joint Water Works in numerous loca-

tions in Mamaroneck and Larchmont in 2018 regarding the quality of tap water. They were recognized for their efforts and initiative by town of Mamaroneck Supervisor Nancy Seligson and Paul Kutzy, manager of Westchester Joint Water Works. The Action Research for Community Change team, facilitated by Dr. Valerie Feit, the K-12 enrichment coordinator and co-director of school counseling, is a Tools for Change program that uses social science research

methods to support policy decisions for local organizations. “The purpose of Action Research is to address community issues by teaching students how to conduct ethical research that influences policy development for the common good,” Feit said. “The findings from this study clearly demonstrated that local community members understand and value the quality of the water we use. The final report was submitted to WJWW for use in their informational materials.” (Submitted)

She has a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Southern Methodist University in Dallas and a Master of Divinity from the Episcopal Seminary of the Southwest in Austin, Texas. Prior to becoming a priest, she had a career in real estate. She and her husband have two grown sons.

A Farewell to Arm(s) LIVE MIKE Mike Smith

After years of speculation— and a disastrous false start in 2017—it’s finally happened: the Eli Manning era in New York is over. On Sept. 17, New York Giants head coach Pat Shurmur officially announced that rookie Daniel Jones will get the start at quarterback for the Big Blue’s Week 3 matchup against Tampa Bay, hammering what feels like the final nail in the coffin on Manning’s tenure with the team. And honestly, even though it’s time for a change, it’s still a little bittersweet. Despite having what most would label an “uneven” career, Manning’s resume with the Giants speaks for itself. Sure his alltime record stands at 116-116, but Eli was never known for what he did in the regular season. He was the type of player who showed up when it mattered, guiding the

underdog Giants to two thrilling Super Bowl wins in his 15-year career, cementing his spot as one of the “clutchest” athletes to ever play in New York. But more importantly than that, he brought stability to the organization. I came of age as a Giants fan towards the tail end of the Phil Simms years. I lived through the mid-90s when the Giants struggled to replace No. 11 with a cast of characters that included Danny Kannell, Dave Brown and Kent Graham. I remember the Kerry Collins years, which were defined by the unpredictable results of Collins’ gunslinger tendencies. But beginning with Manning’s rookie year in 2004, the quarterback position simply wasn’t something Giant fans ever had to think about. Eli may not have been Tom Brady or Joe Montana, but he was consistent. You knew that, for better or worse, he was going to be “Eli” each week and that no matter what his regular season numbers looked like, he would undoubtedly elevate his

game when it mattered most. More than that, you knew he was going to be suiting up each and every week. Manning’s 210 consecutive start streak is currently the second-longest in NFL history, and it would be even longer had former coach Ben McAdoo not benched him for Geno Smith in 2017 in a desperate bid to save his own job. The ploy didn’t work, as McAdoo was gone before the season’s end and Manning was back under center the following week. But now, with Eli on the bench yet again, Giant fans find themselves wading into uncertain waters. Will Daniel Jones, whom the Giants selected with the No. 6 pick in the 2019 NFL Draft, be the long-term answer for the organization? Sure the Duke product looked good in the preseason, but he’s not the kind of quarterback that gives off that “once in a generation” vibe to even the most optimistic fan. So what’s next for the Giants? Only one thing is for certain; it’s

On Sept. 17, New York Giants head coach Pat Shurmur announced that Eli Manning will be benched in favor of rookie Daniel Jones. The move represents the dawning of a new era for the Giants.

not a postseason push. The most us fans can hope for is that we will get to watch Jones develop over the course of the next 14 games so that, come 2020, the Giants will be in a better place

to compete with the rest of the division. But as we’re looking toward the future, let’s raise a glass to the past and to everything that Eli Manning has done for the organization. If 80

percent of life is simply showing up, Manning deserves 100 percent percent of our gratitude.

Tigers top Rye Neck football

non-league

TUCKAHOE 46 RYE NECK 12 RYE NECK HS

09/14/19

Game Notes: • Tuckahoe’s Justin Lee threw for 197 yards and a score • The Tigers forced 5 turnovers • Rye Neck will take on Croton-Harmon this week By MIKE SMITH Sports Editor Just one week after surrendering 40 points in a season-opening loss against Briarcliff, the Tuckahoe defense began to find its footing. Taking on Rye Neck on Sept. 14, the Tigers were able to limit big plays and turn in a much better defensive effort in their first victory of the year—a 46-12 win over the Panthers. Coming into Saturday’s game, Tuckahoe head coach Tom Itri knew that his team would have its hands full with a Panther squad that torched Haldane for 45 points on Sept. 7. Tuckahoe’s pri-

mary concern was slowing down Rye Neck’s explosive quarterback, Evan Falco, and not allowing big plays that could change the momentum of the game. “They are a high-octane of-

fense and we knew [Falco] was a hell of a player—everyone talks about his arm, but when he tucks it and runs, he’s pretty strong with his legs too,” Itri said. “So we structured the defense a little

differently this week, our philosophy was bend, don’t break.” Falco found success early, throwing for one touchdown and rushing for another in the first quarter, but the Tigers were able to clamp down, forcing five turnovers on the day to keep the Panthers out of the endzone after their initial surge. “We just tried to keep them in front of us and make tackles,” Itri said. “We wanted to try to get a couple of turnovers, which we were able to do.” Offensively, Tuckahoe benefited from a tremendous performance by their own signal caller, as Justin Lee rushed for 113 yards and 2 touchdowns and threw for 197 yards and a score on the afternoon despite facing persistent pressure from the Panthers’ defensive line. “Justin’s a gamer, and as a second year quarterback, he knows what he sees, he knows what he’s looking for,” Itri said. “He also has a lot of weapons, which helps.” Lee connected with four different receivers on the day, with tight end Jonathan Berger leading the way with 5 catches for 101 yards. Sophomore Michael Meyers had three receptions for 27 yards and also added another 57 on the ground, finding the end zone once in the second half. “We’re not a very junior-heavy

team, so it’s huge when sophomores like Michael Meyers can step up and be impact players,” Itri said. “He’s very talented, and probably could have come up and played for us last year as a freshman, so he’s going to be a big part of our team.” With the loss, Rye Neck falls

to 1-1 on the year, but will look to bounce back on Sept. 21 when they travel to Croton-Harmon to take on the Tigers. Tuckahoe (11) will have a week off to prepare for a Sept. 27 showdown with rival Haldane. CONTACT: sports@hometwn.com
