Latimer signs North 60 bio-tech lease

ArtsWestchester is launching its first stand-up comedy performances beginning in February. For more, see page 6.

County enters sustainability programs; hopes to earn millions Westchester County has entered into a five-year agreement with NuEnergen, LLC., to provide the county with “Demand Response” program services that may earn Westchester millions of dollars over the life of the contract as well as provide an opportunity to further enhance its sustainability efforts. Demand response is used as a resource for balancing energy supply and demand and helps protect against unplanned power outages. Demand response programs offer financial incentives to owners of facilities, in this case the county, which can reduce the need for kilowatts (kW) during times of high stress on the region’s electric grid. The contract with NuEnergen was approved by the county Board of Acquisition and Contract and commenced on Sept. 1, 2018. With multiple sites eligible for demand

response participation, Westchester County can potentially earn new recurring revenue of an estimated $2 million annually. As part of this program, the county remains on “stand-by” to lower energy usage during times of stress—like days with sweltering heat. On these “high stress” days, the county would be notified 24 hours in advance of a demand response event beginning and would reduce energy usage at some of its non-essential facilities—i.e. reduce lighting or shift kW (kilowatt) load to on-site generators. The site-specific protocols proposed by NuEnergen will keep each facility fully operational while reducing stress on the power grid. Only a few short hours later, the event would end, and normal operations would resume. The more kW load—or number of facilities—that are enrolled in

the program, the higher the earnings for the county would be. Nearly all facilities have backup generators or power sources in cases where facility operation needs to be in continued use. Similar demand response programs managed by NuEnergen have already proven successful with the city of New York, the NY/NJ Port Authority and the Metropolitan Transit Authority who have collectively earned millions of dollars since its inception. “This program is a win-win for Westchester residents,” County Executive George Latimer said. “It provides revenue through creative solutions to help our well-documented budget gap in the short-term while also reducing the county’s reliance on traditional energy solutions—which is good for our region in the longterm. This is just one example of

the inventive fixes my administration is working on to help us move Westchester forward.” While the county anticipates a summer 2019 start, there are a few sites that can be readily enrolled for the current winter period. This will allow the county to experience the enrollment, notification and load shed process firsthand with a select number of sites in preparation for a much larger enrollment. “Participation in Demand Response programs will guarantee Westchester County recurring revenue that will lend itself as critical aid to the county budget,” Kevin Hamilton, NuEnergen president and CEO. “kW load reduction will also support grid reliability and the avoidance of a blackout, allowing the county to be a good neighbor and contribute to greater cause for the community.” (Submitted)

In a move cementing Westchester County as a leader in the growing bio-tech field, County Executive George Latimer and Fareri Associates President John Fareri officially signed the 99-year lease of the North 60 property on the dais during the county executive’s address at the Westchester County Association Breakfast. “As I learned in my business life, there is a risk for everything, things don’t always turn out as you plan, but if you don’t take risk—prudent risk—you don’t succeed,” Latimer said. “In this case, the 60 acres here will be a bio-tech center that can attract people to our area where they will see Westchester as a central place.” North 60 comprises 60 acres of undeveloped land in Valhalla on the Grasslands Reservation. The deal with the county calls for Fareri, a developer who was instrumental in creating the Maria Fareri Children’s Hospital, and Fareri Associates to develop an innovative hub with a focus on biotech and medical technology research and development—a rapidly expanding field—together with retail and hotel space. “At long last, we can move forward with what we are confident will be a major economic engine for Westchester County and the region,” Fareri said. “The concept for The North 60 has been in the works for a decade, and now we are ready to see our vision come to life. Over the next several months, we will be preparing the necessary documents to commence the environmental review by the town of Mount Pleasant.” While this project passed the Board of Legislators unanimously in 2017, the lease remained unsigned. While the Latimer

Administration was doing its due diligence and reviewing the terms and conditions of the lease, the developer proposed adding new uses of the property which were not previously included in the lease, including residential use, arts and cultural use. This amendment to the terms of the lease would have required further Board of Legislators’ approval. After further discussions with the Latimer Administration, and in an effort to get to work on this forward-thinking economic development project, the developer agreed to withdraw these proposed uses. “This project will go a long way to solidifying our region’s brand as a hub of innovation in healthcare and life sciences,” Bill Mooney Jr., Westchester County Association president and CEO. “The WCA has long supported the development of the North 60 as a means to bring together academia, healthcare, life sciences and technology. It will provide meaningful opportunities for economic development, innovation and collaboration.” President of Pace University Marvin Krislov added, “Pace University knows how important it is to encourage scientific innovation in Westchester, bolster the local economy, and provide internships, research opportunities, and jobs for our ambitious students and alumni. We’re thrilled by [the] announcement that the county will be moving forward with the Westchester BioScience and Technology Center.” The 99-year lease provides for the development of the property in accordance with a Master Development Plan in phases: • The first phase requires the LEASE continued on page 8

Assemblyman applauds election reforms The state Assembly and Senate have passed historic reforms to New York’s election laws designed to support voter participation. State Assemblyman David Buchwald sponsored a package of bills that stand to make sweeping reforms to New York’s election laws. The list of changes includes establishing early voting, allowing preregistration for 16- and 17-year-olds, facilitating registration transfers for voters who move anywhere within New York, ending the use of limited liability corporations to utterly undermine New York’s campaign finance laws, starting the process of changing the state constitution to permit same day registration and no-excuse absentee ballots, and combining the primary election dates for federal and state offices. “New York State voters are the winners with the passage of these historic reforms to our election laws,” Buchwald said. “Early voting, allowing registration transfers and combining the state

and federal primaries remove outdated rules and procedures that impeded voter participation, while closing the so called LLC loophole helps to restore integrity to election campaigns. These election law reforms are just the beginning, there is more work to be done to improve elections and engage more New Yorkers in our democracy.” On campaign finance reform, the law passed by both houses of the state Legislature caps campaign contributions from limited liability corporations at $5,000 per year to all campaigns combined. Additionally, they will be required to disclose whom the LLC was established to benefit. In the past there was no limit to contributions by LLCs and little to no transparency on who was behind the contribution. To establish same day voter registration and to streamline absentee ballot rules to potentially allow a vote-by-mail system in New York, the state constitution must be amended. This process

David Buchwald

requires approval by two consecutive Legislatures and then by the voters in a statewide election. Many of these election reform bills have been strongly supported by the Assembly in years past, but failed to win approval in the state Senate. Now, on the first day of passing bills in the 2019 legislative session, these measures won the support of both the Assembly and Senate. (Submitted)

Westchester Philharmonic concert

features Savion Glover It isn’t often when the guest soloist engaged to perform with a symphony orchestra is a tap dancer, but that’s just what the Westchester Philharmonic has in store for its “Friends & Family” Concert, presented on Feb. 10 at 3 p.m. at the Purchase Performing Arts Center. Teaming up with the world-renowned, Tony-decorated Savion Glover, the Westchester Phil and Maestra Rachael Worby have planned a thoroughly unique and unforgettable collaboration of music and dance, with Worby offering a special “guided tour” through the music to delight audiences of all ages. Glover will perform the Tap Dance Concerto, the only work of its kind in all symphonic repertoire, composed by mid-century master Morton Gould. Then flipping the calendar on its head with Vivaldi’s Baroque masterpiece, “Four Seasons,” Glover will perform an improvisational

duet with the violin soloist, Philharmonic concertmaster Robert Chausow. Aaron Copland’s “Rodeo,” the East Coast Premier of Jed Feuer’s “Harambe,” and two works by jazz genius Thelonius Monk will draw listeners into an unexpected world they won’t want to leave. The Phil’s “Friends & Family” Concert is designed to enthrall young listeners while delighting the seasoned concert-goer. Worby’s engaging narrative

throughout the program will be an education for all. For this performance, children age 12 and under are admitted free with a paid adult purchase. A pre-concert discussion with the artists will take place in the hall at 2 p.m., free for ticket holders. A free open rehearsal occurs at the hall at 11 a.m. Single tickets range from $40$97. To purchase tickets, call or visit the Purchase College Performing Arts Center box office at

first stand-up comedy performances For the first time ever, ArtsWestchester is hosting a new Art of Laughter Comedy Series in its downtown White Plains gallery and performance space. Kicking things off will be two nights of women-empowered stand-up featuring New York greats Kerri Louise on Feb. 8 and Judy Gold on Feb. 9. Both shows will take place from 8-10 p.m. at ArtsWestchester, located at 31 Mamaroneck Ave. “You gotta love the arts—especially the art of laughter,” said Janet Langsam, CEO of ArtsWestchester, the largest not-for-

profit arts council in New York. “Comedy has a unique power to make us think and question, all while poking fun and bringing a good laugh. We are especially excited to launch this new series with two absolutely hilarious and empowering women. These will be nights to remember, right in our gallery alongside friends and neighbors.” Don’t miss this opportunity to experience the art of laughter. Reserve your spot in this intimate performance space by visiting artswestchester.org.Judy Gold draws on aspects of her own life

experiences—being a lesbian, Jewish, a woman, a mother, and very tall—to bring people together in laughter. Her comedy is not only hilariously funny, it is poignant, encouraging listeners to think more critically about the ways we define people and their roles and about the intersection of identities. With multiple critically acclaimed Off-Broadway plays in which she was both a writer and star, comedy specials on HBO, Comedy Central and LOGO, not to mention her award-winning career in television off-screen as a writer and on-screen in a host

of shows, Judy’s experience as a creator and entertainer speaks for itself. However, these traditional mediums clearly weren’t enough to satisfy Judy’s creative drive, so she recently created the podcast “Kill Me Now” with CBS, which already has more than 100 episodes. Kerri Louise also has enough personal material to last a lifetime—as a mother of three boys, the wife of another prominent comedian Tom Cotter, and of course as a touring female comic. Louise made an early impression on the “Oprah Winfrey” show as a reg-

ular correspondent and has since gone on to perform at prominent comedy events like the Aspen, Montreal and Lucille Ball Comedy festivals. Louise also hosts her own YouTube series and was featured as a finalist on NBC’s “Last Comic Standing,” after which she went on to star in her own sitcom, called “Too Funny!” The Art of Laughter Comedy Series is presented as part of “Live at ArtsWestchester” performance series. It’s never too soon to mark your calendars for some exciting happenings at ArtsWestchester! (Submitted)

Letters to the Editor

Westchester Power letter To the Editor: City of Rye residents and small businesses that purchase electricity are receiving an important letter from Westchester Power regarding electricity purchase options. Westchester Power is akin to an electricity purchasing cooperative for Westchester municipalities. The city of Rye has recently joined Westchester Power in order to make Westchester Power’s services available to Rye residents and small businesses that currently purchase their electricity from Con Ed. Westchester Power buys electricity at fixed, forward, annual bulk rates that are lower than past average Con Ed rates. This is intended to provide, but does not guarantee, the availability of electricity at lower than average Con Ed rates for the coming year. Rye residents and small businesses that currently purchase their supply from Con Ed will be automatically enrolled in the Westchester Power program unless they opt out. Those that do not opt out will be enrolled in Westchester Power’s “renewable” -sourced electricity program, unless they indicate otherwise. In other words, Rye residents and small businesses that currently purchase their supply from Con Ed, but now choose to do nothing, will be enrolled in Westchester Power’s renewable option. Others may choose the “standard”-sourced electricity program instead, or may opt out entirely. Those currently purchasing their electricity from a third-party electricity supplier will not be automatically enrolled in the Westchester Power program. Please note that participants in the program will still have their electricity delivered and billed to them by Con Ed. We believe that Westchester Power will serve customers well. Should problems arise, however, please inform our City Manager Marcus Serrano. The City Council hopes that many Rye residents and small businesses will find the program useful, both as a potentially cost-advantaged means of purchasing electricity and as a means of choosing to buy electricity from renewable sources.

Kaplowitz announces he won’t seek re-election After representing the residents of the fourth Legislative District for more than two decades, Westchester County Legislator Michael Kaplowitz announced on Jan. 15 that he will not seek re-election this November. The fourth County Legislative District consists partially of Yorktown, Somers and all of New Castle. Kaplowitz, the second-longest serving legislator in the county Board of Legislators’ history, was sworn in on Jan. 1, 1998. Kaplowitz served in many ca-

Michael Kaplowitz

pacities along the way—most notably as chairman of the Board of Legislators for four years. He also served as vice chairman of the board as well as chairman of numerous committees including the Budget & Appropriations Committee. “It was a difficult decision—a decision that is bitter sweet,” Kaplowitz said. “I’ve enjoyed every moment of my public service and hope that I am leaving Westchester a little bit better than when I started.” (Submitted)

County to hold “Alternatives to Suicide” session Westchester County and the Department of Community Mental Health, DCMH, announced a suicide prevention forum will be held in the White Plains Public Library on Wednesday, Jan. 16 from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. The event, entitled “Alternative to Suicide— An Overview,” will present a model program from the Western Massachusetts Recovery Learning Community, MRLC, in a discussion led by internationally renowned experts Sera Davido and Caroline Mazel-Carlton. “People reaching out to other people is still one of the best ways

to communicate with each other,” County Executive George Latimer. “Learning more about how each and every of us can support people, and help them move way from suicide is an important part of reducing suicide in our communities.” DCMH Commissioner Michal Orth said, “Suicide rates in Westchester County appear to be on the rise. It is imperative that we know how to recognize the potential signs, and be there to support and assist those who so greatly need to find an alternative.” According to the MRLC, “The

goal of “Alternatives to Suicide” is not to simply force someone to stay alive from moment to moment. Rather, it is to support them to create meaning and a life that they want to live. Not killing one’s self is simply a side-effect of all that.” The program is open to anyone who is interested in learning about this innovative model, and wish to participate an open, supportive discussion on the topic. To RSVP to this event, please e-mail ASB1@westchestergov. com. Light refreshments will be available. (Submitted)

Rooting for failure LIVE MIKE Mike Smith

Nothing reveals a sports fan’s true colors quite like how he behaves when his team is floundering. And based on my own actions this past weekend, I realize that I have a lot of room to grow as a person. The last few years have not been kind to my rooting interests. Sure, the Red Sox won the 2018 World Series, but if you take away their dominant season-long run, I haven’t had a whole lot to cheer for. The Giants, Rangers and Knicks have all been collectively putrid for the last two years, and as a result the only time I’ve felt sports-related joy is when one of my teams’ rivals fails. On Saturday and Sunday, I was treated to a double-dose of schadenfreude when the Dallas Cowboys and Philadelphia Eagles were both eliminated in the

NFC Divisional Round. With nothing positive to root for since late September, the best I could hope for was that the Rams and Saints would come through and ensure that I wouldn’t have to endure the Birds and the ‘Boys squaring off this week in the NFC Championship Game. As far as unenviable outcomes, I couldn’t think of anything worse than seeing the two teams I loathe most playing each other with a Super Bowl trip on the line. Luckily, a dominant Rams performance—and an ill-timed drop by Alshon Jeffery— meant that neither the Cowboys nor the Eagles would get that chance. But watching these games, I couldn’t help but feel like I was rooting against these two teams with more passion than I’d been able to muster to support my own Giants all season long. Maybe it was the Giants’ uninspired play, maybe it was the fear of having to listen to my Giants-hating friends, but it felt like

THE REVIEW • January 18, 2019 • 15

this past weekend was the first time I’d actually been invested in the outcome of a game since the beginning of September. And that kind of scares me. I love being a sports fan; the run of emotions that comes from following a team provides a nice respite to real world problems. But even though my enmity for teams like the New York Yankees is real, it becomes troubling when one’s fandom is predicated almost entirely on rooting for a rival to fail. It’s the sort of negativity one hopes to avoid with an outlet such as this. So from here on out, I’m not going to dwell on the successes of my team’s rival, I’m going to make an effort to be a better, more positive sports fan and simply cheer my club on. At least, I will once the Chiefs take care of those dastardly Patriots. I really can’t stand those guys either.

On Jan. 12, Sports Editor Mike Smith was rooting harder against the Cowboys in their NFC Divisional Round game than he rooted for Giants all season. Perhaps he needs to rethink his priorities. Photo courtesy Wikipedia.org

THE ROUNDUP GIRLS BASKETBALL

Byram Hills 41 Rye 38 At Rye HS

1/10/19

Taking on league foe Byram Hills at home, the Garnets saw a slight first-half lead dissipate as the Bobcats’ three-point shooting and dominance on the glass proved the difference-maker. Jennifer Mui played an inspired game on the perimeter, leading the Bobcats with 15 points and forcing five turnovers on the defensive end. But it was Byram Hills’ constant rebounding effort that swayed the game in the Bobcats’ favor, as Maggie Walsh and Stef Latella combined to coral 26 rebounds in the win. The game was a matchup between the two best teams in League II-D, as the Bobcats improved to 8-2 with the victory. The two teams will square off again on Feb. 1.

What was expected to be an offensive affair turned into a defensive struggle on Thursday, as the Bobcats topped the Garnets in a game that showcased the depth and determination of both teams. With a two-point lead and just 20 seconds to play, Byram iced the game on a three-pointer from Mike Kalian that all but ended any hopes of a Rye comeback. But it wasn’t outside shooting that turned the tide for Byram Hills on the night, it was their play in the paint, anchored by 6-foot-8 senior Ben Leff, who scored 12 points and grabbed 14 rebounds against the undersized Garnets. Rye’s Matt Tepedino led all scorers with 14 points. The Garnets will have another shot at Byram Hills on Feb. 1, when the Bobcats travel to Rye.

Matt Tepedino once again paced the Garnets, scoring a game-high 19 points in the victory, while teammate Quinn Kelly added 16.
