Ludington Court latest sign of Ridgeﬁeld’s growing condo scene

BY KEVIN ZIMMERMAN kzimmerman@westfairinc.com

ive luxury condominiums rising on Ridgefield’s Main Street may be indicative of a continuing trend — providing housing for millennials and empty nesters alike — around the county, but they’re also symptomatic of the town’s need to repurpose neglected properties into something valuable. Rehabilitating a property to make it a tax-revenue generator is nothing new, of course, but in Ridgefield’s case it’s practically a necessity when it comes to new homes, according to Arnold Light, chairman of the town’s Economic and Community

Development Commission. “We just don’t have room for a lot of new construction,” Light said. “There are pieces of land here and there that single-home builders can purchase, but we don’t have enough opportunity to build a number of houses like Michael Eppoliti is doing.” What developer Eppoliti is doing is creating Ludington Court, a five-residence community running from 509 to 527 Main St., on the one-acre site of what was a long-dilapidated, century-old house on the corner of Main and Gilbert streets. Two of the homes will face Main and The Elms complex across the street, while the remaining three will face » RIDGEFIELD

Reverse mortgages gain legitimacy, if not popularity, in region BY KEVIN ZIMMERMAN kzimmerman@westfairinc.com

everse mortgages still have a negative connotation for many. Stories of senior citizens losing their life savings through such transactions permeate the internet, coupled with headlines about “the reverse mortgage con” strike fear into the hearts of homeowners seeking to draw value from the investment in their house. But those fears are mostly misplaced, according to Nick Buscaglia, senior vice president for residential mortgage at M&T Bank, which maintains branches throughout Fairfield and Westchester counties. “A lot of that is misinformation that dates back to when they first appeared in the ’80s,” he said. “But over the past several years it’s become a lot better,” in part by the strict code of ethics established in 1997 by the National Reverse Mortgage Lenders Association, Buscaglia said. “Of course,” he added, “there’s always the caveat of knowing who you’re dealing with and making sure it’s the right product for you.” Most banks in Fairfield and Westchester — including People’s United Patriot, Newtown Savings Bank, and The Westchester Bank — do not offer reverse mortgages. While they did not respond to requests for further comment, a recent survey by the mortgage consultancy Stratmor Group found that “reputation risk” was the top reason for eschewing reverse mortgages, followed by “distraction from the forward business,” “lack of in-house expertise,” and “belief it won’t be profitable.” Buscaglia said he thought the last point was particularly resonant. “Reverse mortgages are a small product,” he said. “It’s a spit in the ocean compared to the first mortgage business, and other banks believe they aren’t worth their while.” M&T takes the point of view that it’s another valuable offering for its customers, he added. “We’re one of the few out there who try to meet every single customer face-to-face,” he said. “We want them to be able to see us, touch us and know who they’re dealing with. A lot of other com-

panies do it all by phone.” While Buscaglia declined to say how many reverse mortgages M&T does each year, data from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), which oversees the market, indicates that there aren’t that many taking place locally. The state of Connecticut recorded a total of 435 reverse mortgages in 2016 — last year’s numbers are not yet available — compared with 597 in 2015. New York totaled 2,198 in 2016, down from 3,238 the year before. Last year, John M. Tolomer, president and CEO of The Westchester Bank, told the Business Journal that reverse mortgages were “not something that is popular with our client base.” Jason Milligan of Norwalk’s Milligan Realty said that although “I have been involved with them when there are short sales and

they have been somewhat hard to deal with,” his firm “didn’t have a ton of experience with reverse mortgages.” Nevertheless, the activity in Connecticut has been sufficient enough for state Sen. Tony Hwang — whose district includes Easton, Fairfield, Newtown, Weston and Westport — to push for legislation introduced through the Aging Committee in February that would prevent a reverse-mortgage lender from originating a reverse mortgage unless it has informed the applicant of the HUD counseling requirement, received certification that the applicant has attended the counseling session, and that the counseling session was conducted in person. The legislation is intended to bring Connecticut more closely in line with HUD requirements, which mandate that any borrower seeking such a transaction receive counseling by a Federal Housing Authority-approved person before the borrower incurs any costs for the loan. In fact, Hwang’s measure goes a step further, by requiring in-person counseling, which the FHA prefers, but does not insist upon. In a statement, Hwang said that such counseling can help seniors understand the tax implications of the mortgage payout and what rights a nonborrowing spouse has upon the borrower’s death. “The financial institutions certainly weren’t volunteering to educate their clients,” he said. “Requiring counseling and additional recordkeeping provides more protection for consumers, particularly our seniors, who might fall victim to predatory lenders.” Meanwhile, last month the Trump administration proposed a permanent end to the cap on the number of reverse mortgages. “The Budget will again propose permanently lifting the cap of 275,000 loan guarantees to provide further stability for the (Home Equity Conversion Mortgage) program,” the White House wrote in its proposal for the fiscal 2019 HUD budget. “This proposal reflects the significant improvements that have been made to the program to reduce risk to the (Mutual Mortgage Insurance) Fund and to ensure responsible lending to seniors.”

Demolition work starts on East Windsor casino without federal approval BY PHIL HALL phall@westfairin.com

he Mashantucket Pequot and Mohegan tribes have begun work on their proposed East Windsor casino March 5 without receiving federal permission to proceed on the project. At a ceremony, the tribes commenced the demolition of a shuttered movie theater at the site that is planned for a 100,000-square-foot casino. The new casino would be 13 miles south of the 759,000-square-foot MGM Springfield casino resort, which is scheduled to open later this year. Despite the commencement of demolition, the tribes have not finalized a construction timeline for the project because of the uncertainty of approval from the Department of the Interior’s Bureau of Indian Affairs. Mohegan Tribal Council President Kevin Brown insisted that federal approval for the East Windsor casino will be forthcoming. “We expect to get that approval in the late spring,” he said. “We know we are on the right side of the law.” The East Windsor project has been in limbo as a result of the U.S. Department of the Interior’s inaction on reaching a decision on gaming pact amendments that would enable the tribes to open a casino on nontribal land. The tribes and the State of Connecticut have filed a lawsuit against the department, and members of Connecticut’s congressional delegation have demanded that the department’s Office of the Inspector General investigate the matter. The proposed casino is potentially a $300 million development. An 1,800-car parking garage is planned where the old movie theater stood. MGM Resorts International, which proposed its own casino resort in Bridgeport, has been accused by the Connecticut congressional delegation of lobbying the Department of the Interior to prevent the East Windsor casino. Uri Clinton, senior vice president and legal counsel for MGM Resorts, told the Associated Press that the tribes were “closer to legal approvals they require, and no closer to producing a realistic construction schedule than they were a year ago when they said construction would be completed in 2018. If ever there was a textbook example of there’s less here than meets the eye, this is it.”

United Bank seeks to open in Greenwich BY KEVIN ZIMMERMAN kzimmerman@westfairinc.com

nited Bank of Hartford has applied to open a brank branch at 415 Greenwich Ave. in Greenwich. If approved by regulators, the Greenwich location would be United Bank’s second in Fairfield County — it opened a commercial loan production office on Green Farms Road in Westport in 2015 — and its 54th branch within its Connecticut and Massachusetts footprint. The proposed branch would include multiple teller stations, ATM access, a conference room and private office space for branch managers and other bankers to consult with customers. In addition to retail banking activity, the branch would provide a

conduit to commercial and mortgage banking as well as financial advisory services. “By establishing a branch in Greenwich, we are directly responding to what our customers have been telling us: they want United Bank to have a greater physical presence in Fairfield County where they can conduct more of their banking activity,” said

United Bank CEO William H.W. Crawford IV. “This market has great demographics — among the best in the country,” he said, “so we’re making sure we have lower Fairfield County covered and we look forward to enhancing our commercial, business and retail banking opportunities through this branch in Greenwich.”

We want to have our field people get out the door faster. Some arrive late and when they do punch in they take their time getting on the road. The field crews can’t get their work done and we can’t make money unless everyone is here on time and out the door almost as soon as they get here. THOUGHTS OF THE DAY: Time is money — make sure your people understand that principle. Minimize opportunities for delay. Have a system to minimize delays. Focus on factors that contribute to enhanced performance. When it comes to running a successful company, the more your people understand about what drives success, the better. And the first order of business is understanding the relationship between time and money. Talk with your people about how tight margins can be. Show them examples of jobs that made a profit and those that took a loss. Discuss why there were different outcomes, focusing on errors and the role of overhead hours vs. billable hours. Make up competitions for which teams get out the door the fastest, have the lowest downtime and have the fewest errors on the job. Ask winners to talk about how they did it and train the other teams. Set up a procedure for field staff to call in if they’re going to be out sick or if there’s an emergency they have to deal with. Have your field crew scheduler online before the crews arrive, rearranging work assignments by priority if there are any people not coming in or equipment is down. Set up a check-in desk right next to the time clock, where people can get a packet of instructions for the

day. Minimize disruption with floaters to fill in gaps. Permanently assign teams to specific trucks, which should be fueled, equipped and ready to go as soon as the team is fully assembled. Make sure all team members know their roles: the team leader picks up job paperwork, hands out crew assignments and checks equipment. The navigator looks for the most efficient routes to use. The driver checks out the vehicle, double-checks equipment and supplies and verifies the crew is on board. Have someone stay at the end of the day to gas up, clean and restock all vehicles. Have someone arrive early in the morning to double check everything and log vehicles out. Field crews should report vehicle issues while they’re out on the road and the office lines up overnight maintenance resources to fix problems. Set a schedule for preventive maintenance matched to vehicle mileage and stick to the schedule no matter how busy things get. If you can’t afford to be down a vehicle, add an extra rotating vehicle to the fleet or line up a rental service as backup. Live by the motto “A place for everything and everything in its place.” Insist all tools and supplies get put away where they belong. Diagram how each field vehicle should be outfitted and train everyone

to use the map every day. Make it easier to spot things that need to be replaced by labeling hooks — the empty ones become clear signals calling for new gear and supplies. Have someone check that equipment is put away before leaving the job site. Do everything possible to create favorable work conditions. Clean up clutter. Get rid of hazards. Limit overtime and make sure your people get plenty of opportunity to rest. Address conflicts head on and get rid of them. Over-communicate to reduce time wasted on guesses and gossip. Save time starting in on the next day’s work by giving your people time to wrap up, pick up and organize at the end of the day. LOOKING FOR A GOOD BOOK?

Ridgefield—

Gilbert. Each home will have a view of Ballard Park to the south, and the complex is within walking distance of the Main Street shopping and dining district, as well as its library and the Prospector Theater. All five will be accessed from a driveway off of Gilbert. The construction required a zoning change to accommodate the site’s lower density — something that was granted in 2016, although not without some drama.

firm has already underwritten more than $100 million in loans. “We’re at the intersection of finance and clean energy, where I think the state of Connecticut is going to see some real growth,” said Bailey. As a direct lender to commercial property owners seeking to reduce operating costs related to energy consumption, the company has found a lucrative niche within the commercial lending sector. Greenworks Lending focuses exclusively on a platform called C-PACE (Commercial Property Assessed Clean Energy) financing. This platform encourages property owners to borrow for energy efficiency or renewable energy projects on existing commercial buildings. “I’ve known about this for nearly a decade,” said Bailey. “I first learned about it when I was at the Rockefeller Brothers Fund in New York doing energy policy work. I knew it was a good policy that could bring private capital into the energy market and help building owners, which are major consumers of energy, and help to cut their energy expense.” Bailey became involved in Connecticut’s Green Bank when it was created in 2011 and Gov. Dannel P. Malloy was looking for different products that the Green Bank could offer. “I helped design the policy,

“Ridgefield itself is relatively easy to work with,” Eppoliti said at the site. “But the atmosphere at a public hearing can be challenging.” The new zoning statute allows a maximum of six units per acre if all the units are selling at the market rate, and up to eight units an acre if 15 percent of them meeting affordable housing guidelines. “The town is very happy to see this happening,” he added. “They saw the need for this and approved our submission with very little revisions.”

then the programs, then the lending platform as it works for C-PACE,” she said. “It worked really well and we saw quite a few projects close. I realized that it was not only a good product, but a really good business.” Bailey teamed with Alexandra Cooley, an assistant director of clean energy finance at the Green Bank, in founding Greenworks Lending in 2015, with Cooley taking on the chief operating officer position. They needed to consider some startup challenges: C-PACE lending is only available in states where this platform has been enabled by legislation, and a thorough engineering review of the properties would need to be conducted in order to assess the viability of the loan applications. The company initially targeted the Connecticut market and quickly realized that drumming up business would take patience. “There aren’t large portfolio owners in Connecticut, where you educate one building owner and he or she says, ‘Oh good, I have 300 buildings that I’d like you to do this for,’” she said. “We had to be more diligent, going onesy-twosy and growing business along the way.” That approach began to click and to date Bailey estimated Greenworks Lending has originated approximately 150 loans totaling roughly $100 million. “Our smallest deal was about $80,000, the largest was $3.5 million and our average deal size is

A lifelong Ridgefield resident — “I’m ninth generation,” he said — Eppoliti said he’d had his eye on the property for a number of years, but that longtime owner Rocco Valeri had been reluctant to sell, preferring to pursue his own plan of building 14 units in an expanded main house and barn under an affordable housing permit. Those plans ultimately came to naught and 509 Main Street LLC, comprised of Eppoliti, Stefano Zandri and William Harford, finally acquired it in 2015 for $1,211,400.

The 14-unit complex was “never going to work,” Eppoliti remarked, adding that his plan makes more sense aesthetically and demographically. Designed by local architects Mose Associates, each three-bedroom, three-and-ahalf bath condo — detached from the others — will consist of 2,400 square feet across two stories, with the option of building out an attic, a basement and upgrading for an elevator for convenient second-story access. Eppoliti, working with Ridgefield Supply Co., will complete the

exteriors this year, while buyers will choose the interiors. Ludington Court will be in line with the Elms and another nearby complex, Casagmo, in providing space for both younger buyers and older ones looking to downsize, all looking to take advantage of Ridgefield’s Main Street district, Eppoliti said. Work is currently being done on the first two buildings — “the weather has not been cooperative,” he chuckled — with an estimated completion date of next March. Light at Ridgefield’s ECDC agreed with Eppoliti’s

about $600,000,” she said. One challenge, she said, was publicizing the availability of C-PACE loans — which still surprises Bailey, considering the product has been around for years. “Every time a business owner hears about C-PACE, their reaction is, ‘Aha, it is too good to be true’,” she said. “Marketing is always our challenge. We have a sales team communicating with building owners and energy contractors. It’s kind of a shoe-leather operation. You’ve got to have a sales team out there talking to the right people and getting connected into the right building

owners that need this.” Last September, Greenworks Lending saw its first securitization. “We had a $75 million pool of assets that we had originated across several states that we were holding on our balance sheet,” Bailey stated. “We did a term securitization with Guggenheim leading it, and it was fully purchased by TIAACREF. For us, it was a really nice fit because they have a matched needs with what we are creating — we have very long-term assets that perform over 20 years and that’s what investment funds need. We are happy to be the first securitization on the C-PACE

side in the country.” Lately, Greenworks Lending has been in an expansion phase. In February, the company partnered with Main Street America to introduce C-PACE financing to the nonprofit’s membership of municipalities and development associations. Earlier this month, it entered the California market when the Western Riverside Council of Governments (WRCOG) partnered with the company to offer C-PACE financing to the 15 WRCOG member jurisdictions in Riverside County and to more than 370 California municipali-

assessment. “There’s definitely a need for something like this,” he said. “A lot of people no longer need big homes — they just want a two-bedroom, two-bath residence where they can retire but still be in Ridgefield.” On the other hand, he said, “A lot of houses these people have are in the $1 million category, and they’re not selling. And millennials who are just starting out are looking for properties in the $400,000-$700,000 range — and those tend to go relatively quickly.”

ties involved in the state’s Home Energy Renovation Opportunity program. “We plan to be in Massachusetts in the next couple of months and go into New York, Pennsylvania, Virginia and Florida later in this year,” Bailey said. The company also operates in Colorado, the District of Columbia, Maryland, Michigan, Missouri, Ohio, Rhode Island, Texas and Wisconsin. Bailey noted that the Trump administration’s chilly attitude to renewable energy and energy efficiency policies has generated some concern, but she does not foresee disruptions out of Washington. “The policy that enables our company to grow depends upon a state policy and a local ordinance,” she said. “There isn’t much that’s going to happen in the White House, no matter who is in there, that is going to dampen that. There is a lot of enthusiasm for building upgrades, whether you’re in a red state or a blue state. And while having a president who doesn’t support renewable energy and doesn’t see the economic benefits that renewable energy is giving our country creates a bit of a mood-dampening effect, we haven’t seen it hit our pipeline. We were concerned about the solar tax credit, but the good news is that he didn’t remove that when he removed some of the other tax incentives and tax breaks.”

Cheers! Pair of Ridgeﬁeld businesses team to make seltzer from tree sap BY KEVIN ZIMMERMAN kzimmerman@westfairinc.com

rinking maple syrup may seem like a practice best left to heedless children — preferably those whose parents are utterly unwitting. Yet that’s what Nod Hill Brewery and The Hickories Farm are hoping patrons will do — sort of. The two Ridgefield firms have collaborated on First Run, a small-batch seasonal seltzer made from fresh maple, hickory and oak sap. The sap is collected at The Hickories, then trucked to Nod Hill, which pasteurizes, carbonates and cans it. The end result, said Nod Hill co-owner and operations manager Dave Kaye, has not only some of the expected woody notes, but also hints of vanilla and a “unique, sort of sweet flavor. It’s really delicious.” Kaye, who co-owns the brewery with his father Rob, said the sap yielded 1,000 16-ounce cans, which were split evenly with The Hickories to sell for $4 each. Sales have been strong, he said. “We did a small run partly because this was the first time we’d done it,” he explained at Nod Hill’s 137 Ethan Allen Highway location. “Frankly we didn’t know how it would turn out. But it tastes really good and we’ve gotten good feedback on it. We’re a family-friendly establishment, so it’s a nice thing to offer in addition to our beer. We’re definitely interested in doing it again next year.” The idea originated with Hickories founder Dina Brewster, whose family has owned the farm at 136 Lounsbury Road since the 1750s. “Anybody who makes maple syrup has dipped their finger into the sap bucket for a taste,” she said. “The current craze for coconut and other flavored waters made the idea for producing First Run a natural.” Brewster said she fully expected further collaborations with the brewery, “since there are several bushels of the Hickories’ peaches in Nod Hill’s freezer.” “There’s quite a few there,” Kaye laughed when asked for a count. “We’ll be producing a peach-flavored beer later in the year.” Kaye said he and Nod Hill’s head brewer Kyle Acenowr had discussed the idea of producing a nonalcoholic drink in the past,

but had made little headway before Brewster approached them. Seltzer derived from maple syrup may be unusual, but it’s not unheard of. A Burlington, Vermont company called Sap!, which makes sparkling beverages from maple and birch tree sap, created a splash on the “Shark Tank” reality show earlier this year. The Vermont Sweetwater Bottling Co. in Poultney, Vermont,

has been making maple syrup-flavored seltzer and soda for several years. But Kaye said he believed First Run is the first such product made locally in Fairfield County. Another company, Danbury’s Asarasi, has since 2016 been producing bottled water from the waste water usually discarded after maple sap is processed into syrup. Founder and CEO Adam Lazar said Asarasi — whose product was

the first water to be USDA organic-certified — is continuing to expand its distribution throughout the Northeast at stores like Albertsons and Wegmans, and is looking to expand into its first international market, Australia. This month it introduced lime, lemon and cherry-lime flavors to its lineup, Lazar said. Declining to provide figures, Lazar described Asarasi’s sales to date as “really strong.”

Deloitte: Banking industry solid, but plenty of room for improvement BY KEVIN ZIMMERMAN kzimmerman@westfairinc.com

he state of the U.S. banking industry is solid — but meeting several challenges revolving around technology will be key to continued success in the future, according to a senior Deloitte executive. “Labor markets, monetary policies and other factors are all in a fairly good spot overall right now,” said the firm’s Scott Baret, a senior client partner and leader of its U.S. banking and securities practice. “We’re seeing corporate profits and, more recently, the sort of tax reform that we haven’t in a long time. Banks are facing a very favorable economic, regulatory and tax environment.” In order to maintain and grow that momentum, banks must stay abreast of the ever-quickening advances in technology that their customers are increasingly expecting, Baret said, echoing the findings of Deloitte’s newly published 2018 Banking Industry Outlook. The industry’s primary business segments — retail banking, corporate banking, wealth management, capital markets and payments — will each need to address six macro themes in the coming 12 to 18 months. Not surprisingly, customer centricity leads that list. “Client experiences are evolving at a much faster pace, thanks to technology like apps that make it easier for customers to conduct transactions,” Baret said. Not keeping up with those developments “could drive customers to other organizations, depending on their needs. Driving a better and more fulfilling experience for customers is the holy grail for banks and can help increase profitability.” There are also opportunities to modernize regulatory compliance and bring

together disparate silos created for individual compliance goals, Baret said. “We’re calling that ‘regulatory recalibration’ or ‘stabilization’,” he noted. Following a decade of intense scrutiny by regulators globally, banks seem to be sensing some stabilization, especially within the U.S., Baret continued. More global firms are refocusing on varying local market needs and regulatory mandates. Integrating processes through automation — which does not necessarily mean cutting staff — can be one way of taking advantage of this current environment, he said. Tying in with those two themes is technology management. “Stability creates opportunities to redeploy assets and resources into different areas,” Baret said, noting that some banks’ legacy systems date back to the Nixon era. “Integrating those core operating systems with new technologies that can enhance the customer experience isn’t necessarily easy, but it’s something that many banks need to refocus on.” Mitigating cyber risk has become hugely important, as reports of large companies failing to adequately protect their customers’ identities continue to make headlines. Greater interconnectedness in the banking ecosystem, rapid adoption of new technologies, and continued reliance on legacy infrastructure designed for a different age all make for a risky environment, Baret said. While funding for cybersecurity continues to increase and there is greater cooperation among banks, Deloitte warns that cyber risk continues to grow in complexity. As a result, it recommends building a robust culture of due care across the organization and ensuring that cybersecurity is a key consideration in the design of business processes, strategy and innovation.

A fifth theme centers on financial technology firms, or “fintechs,” and how they continue to lead innovation in the banking industry by sharpening their focus on customer experience. As Deloitte sees it, banks can either try to replicate what fintechs are doing, respond with equally innovative solutions, become more symbiotic and less competitive, or pursue a mix of these strategies that fit their unique capabilities and market positions. “This is pushing banks to think differently about the customer experience,” Baret said. Learning from fintechs and technology firms could help banks rethink their competitive benchmarking, he continued, especially as fintechs and other nonbank players encroach on various business lines like lending, payments, trading and wealth management. Smart bank management can take a hard look at those entities’ practices and realize dividends of their own. “Fintechs are the unpaid innovators for banks right now,” Baret said. Lastly, the firm recommends banks rethink their workforce strategy — not just due to increasing automation but also due to greater diversity in the labor pool. In addition to permanent employees and contractors, that workforce will likely include freelancers who work with multiple banks, fintech “hackathoners” to generate novel solutions, and even robots that work alongside humans. Banks will likely need to reorient existing workforces to be collaborative and inclusive, while providing them with more integrated employee experiences — from recruitment to retirement — to mirror the richer customer experience that the workforce is enabling, according to Deloitte.

GREEN STREET POWER PARTNERS ACQUIRES SOLAR PROJECTS FIRM

Stamford’s Green Street Power Partners LLC has purchased a portfolio of community solar projects, all in Con Edison’s service zone, from San Jose, California’s SunPower. A 918-kilowatt rooftop project in Maspeth, Queens, will be the first project to be completed and will feature SunPower Helix technology. Helix is expected to offset approximately 20,496 metric tons of carbon dioxide from the five boroughs over the lifetime of the system, the equivalent of preserving 167 acres of forest. The project will provide power to more than 150 homes in New York City. The project was originated by SunPower dealer Accord Power, which is also providing development and engineering, procurement, and construction services. Construction is set to begin April 1 and expected to be complete by late spring. Green Street will own the system, highlighting the company’s increased focus on project acquisition. “This project, along with the additional projects we are currently acquiring, will have a profound impact on our company while helping us achieve our goals of being a leader in community solar, and commercial and industrial solar markets,” said Green Street Co-Founder and CEO Scott Kerner.

HEALTH CARE COALITION FORMED BY CONNECTICUT CHAMBER

The Connecticut Chamber Healthcare Coalition has been formed by the Connecticut Chamber of Commerce and its health insurance marketing partner the Chamber Insurance Trust as a means of addressing the spiraling costs of health care for its business members.

Outside companies are soliciting BUSINESS JOURNAL readers for plaques and other reproductions of newspaper content without our consent. If you or your firm is interested in framing an article Sunpower helix

The group began looking at different ways to help keep those costs down last fall. Meetings were held at a number of the 65-plus chambers across the state over the past five months, where businesses and chamber executives discussed the programs needed by companies. The Connec ticut Department of Insurance has authorized rate increases for 2018 of as much as 31.7 percent for the individual market. Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, Connecticut’s largest insurer, was authorized to increase rates that average more than 25 percent for the majority of its small business and nonprofit market. Nearly all of Connecticut’s major health insurers have posted double-digit rate increases. “From Danbury to Danielson, members are telling chamber leaders that increasing health care costs are strangling their businesses,” said JoAnn Ryan, president of Connecticut’s Chambers of Commerce Leadership Council and president of the Northwest Chamber of Commerce in Torrington. “The chambers have used our combined member power, working with our health care marketing partner the Chamber Insurance Trust of Orange to provide access to quality, affordable health plans for more than two decades,” Ryan said. “Connecticut health insurers in the past had been eager to create special programs, control rates, in exchange for marketing help and access to our members. That is no

or award from our newspaper or obtaining a reprint longer the case -- the market has changed, and our coalition is a response.” “Connecticut’s chambers have a local footprint across the entire state and, member or not, they work for every business,” said Chamber Insurance Trust CEO Steve Glick. “There are policies that the federal and state governments can do to help, and the Chambers will continue to advocate for those. “However, we are not waiting,” he continued. “We’re innovating and the CCHCC has a series of programs, including a captive insurer, which pools members outside of a traditional insurance company.”

Briefly—

from the Connecticut Insurance Department on Feb. 23 that it can sell its products in the state. The company, which was founded in 1989 by the Kansas Medical Society, is working with Connecticut Medical Society’s brokerage firm, CSMS Insurance Agency, and is planning to begin quoting coverage later this spring. “We are proud to work with the Connecticut State Medical Society to grow our insurance business, and we are honored they recognize us as their medical professional liability insurance Preferred Affinity Partner,” said Kurt Scott, president and CEO of KaMMCO

Its online offerings are designed to allow property managers to train employees quickly to ensure compliance with extensive rules and regulations on topics such as Fair Housing, OSHA and sexual harassment. “Stone Point is deeply entrenched in the real estate services industry and is therefore able to support Grace Hill in key, strategic ways beyond the firm’s significant investment,” remarked Grace Hill CEO Dru Armstrong.

WEINSTEIN EXITS STAGE IN WESTPORT

Just as movie mogul Harvey Weinstein has left the Hollywood scene, he also has quietly exited Fairfield County with the sale of his last two Westport properties. Weinstein’s adjacent properties at 26 Beachside Ave. and 28 Beachside Ave. sold for $10 million and $6 million, respectively, with Westport real estate investor Andrew Bentley acquiring both homes. The 26 Beachside residence, an 8,800-square-foot estate on a 2.38-acre compound, was the site of fundraising events for Barack Obama’s 2012 re-election campaign and Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential bid. The neighboring 28 Beachside compound features an 1,800-square-foot Cape Cod on a 3.33-acre waterfront parcel. Weinstein, whose award-winning career collapsed amid a wave of sexual harassment charges, sold a third Westport home at 20 Minute Man Hill last October for $1.65 million.

ENERGY EFFICIENCY HAS 7:1 PAYBACK

Every dollar invested in energy efficiency generates $7 back into Connecticut’s economy, according to a report by the Connecticut Energy Efficiency Board. The 2017 Programs and Operations Report states that the energy efficiency improvements made last year will save Connecticut homeowners, renters, cities and towns, and businesses of all sizes more than

Weinstein house at 26 Beachside Ave.

$841 million over the life of those measures. “Last year’s results prove that energy efficiency works for Connecticut,” said Taren O’Connor, Energy Efficiency Board chair. “The savings are used by residents to support household expenses. It helps businesses and municipalities pay local salaries and be more competitive, and overall, it contributes to the quality of life in our state.” However, O’Connor said, the state budget passed last fall diverted approximately 33 percent of the customer-funded programs, which she said “will have harmful consequences for future economic growth and job creation in Connecticut.” The energy efficiency programs and services are supported by customers through a small charge on electric and natural gas bills, marketed under the statewide brand Energize Connecticut, and provided by Eversource, United Illuminating, Southern Connecticut Gas, and Connecticut Natural Gas.. — Kevin Zimmerman, Phil Hall

ISG PARTNERS WITH PLUG AND PLAY TECH

Under the terms of the partnership, ISG will serve as a founding anchor partner of Plug and Play’s newly launched Enterprise 2.0 program for technology startups. ISG will have two seats on the Enterprise 2.0 board and will be involved in reviewing and choosing the 20 companies that will participate in this three-month accelerator program. “This exposure will be enormously beneficial to informing our technology research agenda and building awareness among our consultants who are helping shape the digital strategies and future operating models of our clients,” said ISG Chairman and CEO Michael P.

D&D ELEVATOR TO OPEN YONKERS TRAINING CENTER FOR ELEVATOR TECHNICIANS

ne of the primary issues facing U.S. industry today — across virtually all the manual labor trades and particularly in construction — is an ongoing shortage of trained technicians. This is being strongly felt in the elevator industry, where steadily growing building construction has created increasing demand for technicians to install, service and maintain new and existing systems. More and more one hears, “we need more trained technicians, but there’s no one available to hire.” According to Bob Schaeffer, CEO and president of Elmsford-based D&D Elevator Maintenance, the solution is “training, training, training.” An elevator industry veteran, Schaeffer has throughout his career been a strong advocate for education. Among his many accreditations, he served as board president of the National Association of Elevator Contractors (NAEC) and, as education chairman, was instrumental in creating the Certified Elevator Technician (CET™) certification. This nationally recognized certificate program provides the elevator industry with the means of obtaining and verifying knowledge and experience requirements related to compliance with industry codes, elevator and escalator specific technical theory, components and competencies. For its own company, D&D Elevator has been delivering apprenticeship training for more than 15 years with great success. Schaeffer explains, “To allow us to grow at a reasonable pace, our goal was to make sure we always had enough skilled workers, while maintaining and enhancing our existing workforce. In 2016, and at the beginning of 2017, we have seen a dynamic change in the workforce. Retirees have outpaced new apprentices and rather than deal with the rigors of daily maintenance, repairs, modernizations and the installation of elevators, many qualified technicians have opted to become inspectors and third-party witnesses.” Now, in the face of the worsening shortage in certified technicians, D&D is working on expanding the training model to other elevator companies that subscribe to the common goal of using only educated and safety-trained skilled labor. When they began asking other companies if they had any interest in this, the answer was a resounding ‘if you build it, we will come.’ Accordingly, D&D has begun the process of building a 2,500-square-foot Elevator Learning Center on Corporate Boulevard in Yonkers, antici-

REAL ESTATE

pated to open spring 2018. In keeping with the objective of developing an innovative education model that other companies would fi nd valuable — while ensuring that the educational content is proven and accepted — all classes are being taught by experienced and certified instructors. According to Schaeffer, the overarching objective of the Center is to allow for other companies to train at its facility, either through its approved educational delivery system, or a process created through contractor related organizations. The Center will also be providing services that include certified

testing, proctoring and graduate placement services for entities that provide apprenticeship and re-certification. Working with human resource professionals, it is planning to add personal attribute and ethics training to help create well-rounded candidates who understand the importance of communication, quality and professionalism. In conclusion, Schaeffer says, “We see this approach as a solution to the shortage of skilled labor — to help build a body of educated, trained, skilled, responsible workers who can make an extremely good living while serving a pressing societal need.”

D&D Elevator Maintenance president Bob Schaeffer teaching an elevator technician apprenticeship program.

D&D’s Elevator’s new Elevator Learning Center will be located at Corporate Boulevard in Yonkers and will be delivering: • State-of-the-art computer workstations delivering online education • Accredited, certified apprenticeship training recognized by the Department of Labor • OSHA and Safety training using highly experienced, certified instructors • Industry related continuing education with CEU credits for certification requirements

Students will experience hands-on learning with full-scale elevator component mockups and demonstration aids, as well as simulators that provide the experience of working with equipment from several leading manufacturers.

IUOE LOCAL 825 OPERATING ENGINEERS OPEN NEW WAWAYANDA DIGS

WE SAVE WATER

OUR MEMBERS PREVENT SPILLS AND BRING CLEAN WATER TO YOUR TAP

State-of-the-art training facilities prepare members for careers in construction

perating Engineers operate heavy equipment, such as cranes, bulldozers, graders, pavers, pile drivers backhoes and loaders.

ocal 825 Operating Engineers (IUOE Local 825) have a new home in Wawayanda after years of planning and building. The new Local 825 Training Center and offices opened this fall and are now operational at 96 Bates Gates Road, New Hampton. “We are proud of our new facility and will put it to full use for our members,” said Local 825 Business Manager Greg Lalevee. “The New York location is intended to bring training closer to our members who live in the Hudson Valley and the northernmost counties of New Jersey.” Local 825 is headquartered in Springfield, New Jersey, and represents 7,000 operating engineers throughout New Jersey and five counties of lower New York, including Rockland, Orange, Ulster, Sullivan and Delaware. Its members operate heavy-equipment – such as cranes, bulldozers, graders, pavers, pile drivers backhoes and loaders – to execute large construction tasks and earthworks operations. The property is located along Interstate-84 and encompasses more than 70 acres, with approximately 25 acres available for training activities. Construction began in late 2016 and

Our members share concerns for conservation. It bothers us that up to 130 million gallons of New Jersey’s drinking water are wasted every day due to aging underground pipes.

WE PROMOTE CONSERVATION. Local 825 Operating Engineers are trained to install water infrastructure efficiently and without impacting the environment. In New York, we are part of a team that will save 138 million gallons of drinking water every day, delivering clean water to millions of homes throughout the region. We believe in conservation and renewal that will only come with a commitment to infrastructure upgrades, before a serious or prolonged water shortage forces us to act.

ON TIME. ON BUDGET. ON TARGET. Developers and contractors turn to Local 825 Operating Engineers to get big things done safely, on time and on budget. Our members are experienced, licensed, credentialed and ready to work, day one.

Norwalk’s Galerie Sono views the art scene through a distinctive prism BY PHIL HALL phall@westfairin.com

s a rule, Claude Villani never gets any business at his Galerie Sono from pedestrians who stop and ponder the art on display in the windows of his Norwalk exhibition venue. But there was a memorable exception. “It happened one time,” said Villani, laughing at the recollection. “A guy saw a $25,000 Anne Packard painting and he said, ‘I’ll take that one in the window.’” And not unlike the deep-pocketed pedestrian, Villani’s presence in the Fairfield County art scene could be seen as something of an exception to the longstanding rule of what sells.

“When I opened in 1999, I had a number of friends who had galleries in Greenwich and New Canaan and Westport, and a lot of it was traditional art,” he continued. “It is what I used to say was ‘the dog with the pheasant in its mouth’ paintings. And I said that I was going to focus on contemporary art and they said, ‘Good luck with that in Connecticut.’” Housed within a 6,000-square-foot space at 123 Washington St. in the heart of Norwalk’s SoNo district, the gallery is an airy, brightly illuminated venue that accommodates the works of 10 to 14 artists at a time. Villani is particular about whose work gets displayed. “To be in this gallery requires being in similar

galleries across the country and world, and in museums,” he explained. “We don’t do much with local artists. Not that we don’t support local artists, but we are collector-driven and they want artists who are investment-ready.” Galerie Sono also requires geographic exclusivity of its artists with radius clauses in their contracts. “If we carry Hunt Slonem, he’s not going to show nearby,” Villani said. Galerie Sono is now exhibiting works by Dennis Sheehan, Craig Mooney, Carmelo Blandino, Helen Zarin and Onyeka Ibe, and a reception celebrating Slonem’s work is scheduled for March 24. Max Becker III, the gallery’s director, observed that the venue was more interested in

responding to customer preferences than forcing trends on its audience. “We have a nice variety of imagery, more representational as opposed to abstract, but that is dictated primarily on what we perceive to be the taste of the marketplace,” he said. Villani, who operated galleries in The Hamptons and New Jersey’s Somerset County before coming to Connecticut (and who also runs the SoNo Recording Group music label as a second business), culls his client base from a tristate pool of private collectors that he describes as a “virtual who’s who of celebrities and high-profile financial people.” But unlike the aforementioned impulse buyer who liked what he saw in the window, Galerie Sono works patiently to match the buyer with the right art piece. “One of the most important elements of the process is to educate the customer,” said Becker. “We want to find the proper space for a painting in

the customer’s home. To finalize the transaction, we bring the painting to the customer’s home to see the painting in the space.” While Galerie Sono offers Instagram views of its exhibits, Villani is not convinced that social media is the right place for choosing art. “I don’t think that I can buy a piece of art that I can’t see (in person),” he said. “It’s like buying a car or a home — you have to see it and experience it.” In an age when digital messaging reigns, he still relies on old-fashioned direct mail. “We find direct mail is the best way to do it,” he added. “You get a card that comes in the mail that is beautiful and with all of the information on it. And we find a lot of people keep them and put them on their refrigerators.” The gallery prices its works based on the persquare-inch measurements of each piece and the artist’s visibility in the marketplace, and its fee structure is a graduated scale depending on the artist’s reputation. While declining to offer specific revenue data, Villani pointed to his longevity in business as evidence of a successful operation. “We have sold paintings for upwards of hundreds of thousands of dollars,” he said, adding that the gallery will also buy back paintings that it sold years ago to customers who are now seeking to update their collections. As for his competition in the region’s art world, Villani shrugged. “Today, it seems a lot have fallen away,” he said. “I don’t even know who has a gallery out there right now.”

Bridgeport’s Beardsley Zoo saves rare species while seeking increased attendance BY PHIL HALL phall@westfairin.com

regg Dancho finds himself at a curious crossroad. As director of Bridgeport’s Beardsley Zoo, he coordinated the institution’s 95th anniversary celebrations last year and he recently received a flurry of media attention for the back-toback births of some of the zoo’s rarest residents. At the same time, he has been stymied in trying to bring the zoo to a higher level of animal presentation. “As zoo professionals, we want to see these removed,” he said, pointing to the black barred enclosures that house some of the animals for outside exhibition. “The habitats here are not something I want to see here and we will be removing them.” However, that offers yet another challenge: financing the construction of modernized exhibits. The Beardsley Zoo operates on an annual budget of roughly $5 million, with sourcing evenly divided between earned revenue, philanthropic entities and a mix of city and state government support. Connecticut’s fiscal problems have limited Hartford’s largesse, and corporate support has dwindled in recent years. “We’re as close to a pure nonprofit as we can possibly be,” Dancho added. The 22-acre Bridgeport institution, which is run by the Connecticut Zoological Society, bills itself as “Connecticut’s Beardsley Zoo” and attracts 300,000 visitors per year. It has become a popular site for birthday parties and weddings, and Dancho even envisions bringing corporate events to the site. However, competition remains an issue as myriad attractions compete for the leisure time and funds of Connecticut families.

MARCH 12, 2018

“The Bronx Zoo has been the quintessential zoo trip — I went to the Bronx Zoo when I was in grammar school when I grew up in Stratford,” acknowledged Dancho, who also mentioned Rhode Island’s Roger Williams Zoo as luring visitors from Eastern Connecticut that he’d love to bring in. “If I don’t have people coming to the zoo, we won’t have the resources to continue what we’re doing.” Nonetheless, Dancho and his zoo have earned praise for their important work in the preservation of rare species. “The zoo is a member of the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA), and we’ve been accredited for 25 years,” he continued. “Being an accredited member of AZA, one of the main goals and objectives of our facility is conservation. We work with endangered species as much as we can.” In December, the zoo reported births of animals that have nearly vanished from the wild: three pups born to the South American maned wolves — which, despite the name, is not a wolf but a unique canid species in the genus Chrysocyon — and twin cubs born to the Amur tigers that are native to Siberia. (The cubs’ mother rejected her offspring after birth, requiring the zoo’s staff to take on extra duties as surrogate parents until they are ready to be on public display.) More zoo births are planned: Dancho recently brought in mates for two of the zoo’s most eligible bachelors, the two-toed sloth and the red panda, while its resident male Andean condor will soon leave to mate at another zoo. These animals fall within the AZA’s species survival plan (SSP) program, and there is no guarantee that they can stay as permanent residents of either the Beardsley Zoo or any other

AZA member. “If there’s an SSP species in our facility, it doesn’t belong to us,” Dancho stated. “It belongs to the zoo collective. In very rare cases, we have animals here that are part of release programs and are put back in the wild.” And while Dancho would like to see an overhaul of many exhibits, the zoo is moving forward on three new enclosure projects. One will offer a new home to the red pandas, who are now housed at a center featuring animals from the South American rainforest — admittedly, a strange place to put the Himalayan species, but no other space was available. Last summer, the zoo broke ground on the enclosure, with funding provided through a $75,000 challenge grant from the Werth Family Foundation that was matched with two donations from Easton residents Bob Natt, chairman of the health care technology company Alegeus, and his wife, Helen. The zoo designed the red panda enclosure, which Dancho

said he hoped to complete by the fall. “When you are building a habitat for the denizens here, you need to have safety for the guests, safety for the animals and a way for people to see them better and the animals have a home that feels like a habitat and not a cage,” he said. “Animal welfare is a huge component of what we do right now.” Two other exhibits, one for the spider monkeys and one for the Andean bears,

are also being prepared, and Dancho has been interviewing architects that specialize in zoo exhibit design. Dancho noted that the zoo owns 54 acres of land in the surrounding Beardsley Park, which can be used to expand the zoo “if resources becomes available.” If there is a potential game-changer for raising the zoo’s awareness and attendance, Dancho predicted, it would be the increased focus on STEM (science, technology, engi-

neering and mathematics) education. The zoo’s “zoomobile” has become an increasingly popular tool in bringing some species to classrooms and educational settings around Connecticut and New York, and the new emphasis on STEM studies has spurred an increased volume of visits by students in local schools. “We are seeing more and more school trips coming here,” Dancho observed. “Students are getting to see the things they need to see and learn about the things they need to learn. Today, school trips are not just end of the year get the kids out of the classroom mini-vacations. Now, everything is based in STEM programs.”

GREENWICH STUDENTS WIN REGIONAL SCIENCE BOWL

A team of students from Greenwich High School has won the regional competition for the 2018 National Science Bowl (NSB) and is set to compete in the NSB National Finals this spring in Washington, D.C. The NSB is sponsored by the U.S. Department of Energy. U.S. Secretary of Energy Rick Perry said, “The National Science Bowl continues to be one of the premier academic competitions across the country and prepares America’s students for future successes in some of the world’s fastest-growing fields in science, technology and engineering.” About 14,000 students in middle school and high school have participated in 113 regional tournaments in preparation for the finals to be held April 26 through 30. The top 32 teams will win $1,000 for their schools’ science departments. The top two high school teams will receive grand prizes, to be announced later. Last year, the top two teams won all-expenses-paid trips to Alaska where they explored glaciers, marine life, geology and more. The students compete in a fast-paced question-and-answer format where they solve technical problems and answer questions on a range of science disciplines, including biology, chemistry, earth and space science, physics and math. The Greenwich NSB team includes Henry Shi, grade 12; Phoebe Hartch, grade 10; and eleventh-graders Rahul Subramaniam, Derrick Xiong and Nicholas Liu. Math teacher Maria Buono coaches the team. “I am honored to congratulate Greenwich High School in advancing to the National Finals, where they will continue to showcase their talents as the top minds in math and science,” said Perry.

CALLING ALL HACKERS It’s rare for computer hackers to be warmly welcomed in view of what’s going on in the world, but that’s what will be happening at the University of Bridgeport (UB) on the weekend of March 23 to 25 at the John J. Cox Student Center, 224 University Ave. In fact, the university is providing cots for sleeping, meals and snacks and other accommodations to the hackers at no charge. Fortunately, they won’t to be criminal hackers; UB is hosting an intercollegiate hackathon, challenging students to tap into their computer creativity and explore computer vulnerabilities. Students can compete individually or in teams. They’re invited to come with ideas for web hacks, mobile hacks, hardware hacks and more. They will build software for computer break-ins from scratch over the weekend. Prizes will be awarded. “All students need are ideas, a laptop, college ID and a charger,” said hackathon organizer Rahul Chaudhary, an entrepreneur in residence at UB’s Student Entrepreneur Center. “We’ve taken care of details so students can be creative and focus on doing their best. Hopefully, they’ll have fun, network with peers and even pave the way for their own start-ups.” UB Hackathon is sponsored by the Entrepreneurship Foundation, Unilever, University of Bridgeport, and Wolfram.

Information for these features has been submitted by the subjects or their delegates.

HOUSATONIC HABITAT BRINGS TOGETHER THRIFT SHOPS

Housatonic Habitat for Humanity hosted the first meeting of a new collaboration between region thrift shows to highlight the growing regional impact of this segment of retailing. Representatives of several thrift shops, which support a variety of nonprofit missions, discussed ways to combine forces to publicize their operations and missions. The meeting followed Housatonic Habitat’s publication of the area’s first “Local Thrift Shops Guide.” The free brochure lists more than a dozen local thrift shops, their focus, mission and hours of operation. “We are very pleased with the turnout of our first meeting,” said Fran Normann, Housatonic Habitat’s executive director. Normann said that they hope to create special events to help promote the local thrift shops. Housatonic Habitat cited industry research showing that thrift and consignment shop sales have increased 50 percent over the last decade, while sales at traditional brick-and-mortar stores have declined. Used furniture and used books are some of the strongest segments of the resale industry. The research shows that consumers like to shop at thrift stores for environmental reasons as well as to express their individuality. Housatonic Habitat for Humanity is based in Danbury.

As Black History Month was drawing to a close, on Feb. 27 more than 70 employees of Waterbury-based Webster Bank gathered for a career panel discussion with senior executives who shared insights on their career and life experiences with a focus on diversity in the workplace. “The Power Lunch” included speakers John Guy, executive vice president, director of business banking; Jonathan Roberts, executive vice president, consumer deposits and network management; and Desiree Wolfe, senior vice president, product marketing.

Leaders of the group Black United Students proposed expanding Negro History Week into a month-long celebration. Black History Month began to be recognized locally in the U.S., and in 1976 President Gerald Ford issued a message calling for it to be observed nationally. Ford urged Americans to honor the many African-Americans and their accomplishments.
