The green connection COMPANY TO CREATE CLEARINGHOUSE FOR ENVIRONMENTAL EFFORTS

BY BILL FALLON bfallon@westfairinc,com

new type of environmental company looks to help facilitate and aggregate green initiatives across the U.S., tapping best practices and sharing them under its Fairfieldbased Live Green CT banner.

The idea is rooted as much in urban alleys as pristine forests, promising to promote what works sustainably through connectivity.

Regional business and municipal leaders who have signed on see Live Green as a potential economic boost.

Principal Daphne Dixon said her upcoming Live Green CT Smart Town Network, with its website in the final phase of development, “is creating something really, really new.”

“There is no shortage of information. But there is a void that can be seen in the lack of a holistic approach,” Dixon said. “The information is in silos and there are not enough experts who can bridge the gaps between the silos. This network will help solve that need.

The goal is to build a world-class knowledge base managed by a digital curator,” The system will be “cloudbased and device-independent,” according to Dixon.

Paul Timpanelli, president and CEO of the Bridgeport Regional Business Council, supports the Smart Town Network.

He said Bridgeport is “clearly at the forefront nationally as a forward-looking city that takes its responsibility for a cleaner/greener environment very seriously.” » GREEN, page 6

Grand Central in 30 minutes

BUSINESS COUNCIL PURSUES THE GRAIL OF FAST, FREQUENT RAIL SERVICE

BY BILL FALLON bfallon@westfairinc.com A TRAIN TRIP FROM STAMFORD to Manhattan in 30 minutes would provide quanti�iable paths for job growth and for real estate values. Continuing the status quo — about 52 minutes to Grand Central Terminal — would not be fatal, but could lead to economic stagnation with regional growth a comparative iron horse in a bullet-train world.

A three-person panel assembled by the Business Council of Fairfield County and representing planning, infrastructure financing and business interests recently told a room of 120 at the Stamford Marriott the half-hour trip — coupled with service improvements between New Haven and Bridgeport and between Bridgeport and Stamford — would be a boon.

But in the words of emcee Joseph McGee, vice president for public policy and programs for the Business Council, “If we don’t invest in our rail system, this economy grows slowly.” He noted Stamford had 83,000 jobs in 2000 and today it has 75,000.

The Business Council said in a statement accompanying its “30 Minutes to Manhattan” breakfast, “Our mobility within the metro New York region is critical to our economic vitality. New York and New Jersey have invested not only in good repair, but have invested in increasing capacity, with subsequent impact on real estate values adjacent to transit centers.”

“This is about reliably and frequently reducing the distances between the economic centers of Connecticut and one of the world’s great economic engines in New York City,” Chris Bruhl, Business Council president and CEO, said.

“We have some big choices to make and we have to prioritize,” McGee said. “We can sit back and have the same old New Haven line. It’s not bad. It works. But if we want to drive economic growth, we need to act.”

The panelists were Thomas Wright, president of the nonprofit Regional Plan Association, with offices in Stamford, New York City and Princeton, New Jersey; Steve Gallucci, managing » RAIL, page 4

Two Danbury natives build small cellphone empire

BY DIRK PERREFORT Hearst Connecticut Media

W

hat began with the purchase by two local high school graduates of a lone kiosk selling cellphone accessories has become a new brand with locations throughout the area.

It was about five years ago when Matt Abrantes and Eric Walsh purchased their first kiosk at the Danbury Fair mall, selling accessories for mostly Blackberry and LG flip phones. Within a year, the young entrepreneurs were well on their way to building out their own business empire — operating kiosks from Maine to Connecticut while developing their own brand — Rescue Mobile, which officially launched in 2011.

“We still had a good competitive advantage because our prices are a lot less than mobile carriers located in the mall and we often have a much larger selection.”

“I was going to Western Connecticut State University while working a part time job at this kiosk and realized how much money they were making,” Walsh said. “We made the owner of the kiosk an offer and it just continued to grow from there.”

While malls offer ample foot traffic, lease rates can vary from $40,000 to more than $120,000 annually depending on the location.

“We still had a good competitive advantage because our prices are a lot less than mobile carriers located in the mall and we often have a much larger selection,” Walsh said. “These days, phone accessories have become more fashionable. Women will often buy different covers just to match their outfits.”

And while there are lots of stores out there offering cellular and tablet repairs, Walsh and Abrantes say they have taken the service to a new level through Mobile Rescue, which has three locations, including one in Danbury and Ridgefield.

Chris Rice, left, and Dane Jackson make iPhone screens at Mobile Rescue on Federal Road in Danbury.

“We want to provide people with the best possible quality and we offer a lifetime guarantee on all our repairs,” Walsh said.

“We realized that we couldn’t spend time growing the business if we were constantly re-repairing phones that had already been in the shop.”

Besides smartphones, the store also will repair tablets, desktop computers, flat screen televisions and other electronic equipment.

They will also send a repair person right to a customer’s doorstep.

“There are a lot of people who may be stuck at work but need to get their phone fixed,” Walsh said. “If it’s within 20 minutes

of our location, we’ll go directly to the workplace to make the repair. The customer never has to leave their office.”

The entrepreneurs also recently invested more than $50,000 in equipment so they can create their own glass screens, using factory

original glass, right on the store premises.

Report: Connecticut home sales on the rise

C

onnecticut recorded the most singlefamily home sales last month since August 2007, according to a new report from Boston-based The Warren Group, publisher of The Commercial Record.

A total of 3,415 single-family homes were sold in Connecticut last month, an 8.2 percent increase from last year’s July total. There have been a total of 15,775 single-family home sales in Connecticut so far in 2015, an 11.9 percent increase from the 14,050 sales through July 2014.

“Inventory is good in most areas and the pace of home sales has picked up while prices fall in tandem,” Cassidy Murphy, editorial director of The Warren Group, said.

“July’s numbers reflect the continued steady growth of the housing market this year.”

In Fairfield County, there was a 13.29 percent increase in single-family home sales over the period of July 2014 to July 2015.

The median sales price for single-family homes in Connecticut in July was $271,000, a 1.4 percent decrease from July 2014’s median of $275,000. Year to date, the median sales price is $250,000, down 1.9 percent from $255,000 through July of last year.

Condominium sales in Connecticut rose 12 percent in July compared to July 2014, posting 857 sales this year compared with 765 last year. The median sales price for condos dropped 6.1 percent from $180,000 in July 2014 to $169,900 this year.

Year to date, there have been 4,215 Connecticut condo sales, a 9.7 percent increase compared to the 3,832 transactions through the first half of 2014. The median price year to date has dropped 3.5 percent to $164,000 this year; it was $170,000 through July 2014.

Loxo Oncology treatment earns FDA special designation

S

tamford-based Loxo Oncology Inc., a publicly traded biopharmaceutical company focused on discovering, developing and commercializing targeted cancer therapies, said the federal Food and Drug Administration has granted “orphan drug” status to its new drug, LOXO-101.

The designation is part of a program promoting the development of medicines for underserved patient populations or rare disorders. The bar for such designation is the malady affects fewer than 200,000 people in the U.S. The FDA’s Office of Orphan Drug

Products oversaw the designation. The drug is now being evaluated in tests on patients with certain advanced — “solid” — tumors.

LOXO-101 is for patients with soft-tissue sarcoma, which afflicts the body’s connective or supportive tissues, including cartilage, fat, muscle, fibrous tissue and blood vessels.

Orphan drug designation provides Loxo with benefits including market exclusivity upon regulatory approval, if received exemption of FDA application fees and tax credits for qualified clinical trials, the company reported.

In a brief technical rundown of the

treatment, the company said, “LOXO-101 is a potent, oral, selective inhibitor of tropomyosin receptor kinase signaling molecules. The TRK family — TRKA, TRKB, and TRKC — has been implicated in diverse tumor types such as lung cancer, head and neck cancer, melanoma, colorectal cancer, sarcoma and breast cancer. LOXO-101 was built specifically to inhibit TRK and is currently the only selective TRK inhibitor in clinical development. LOXO-101 is currently being evaluated in a Phase 1 dose escalation trial for patients with advanced solid tumors.”

Mostly rail traffic, but also the region’s roads – including the proposed multibillion-dollar remake of the Interstate-84 interchange at Waterbury – were discussed at the Business Council event.

“If the new jobs are not going to New York City residents, the odds are 90 percent they’re in northern New Jersey.”

— Thomas Wright

In addition to the Business Council, event hosts were NAIOP Commercial Real Estate Development Association of Connecticut and Suburban New York and the Stamford Downtown Special Services District. JLL Vice President John Stoddard, who also serves as chairman of the NAIOP Program Committee, began the proceedings by citing both the challenges of funding New Haven Line upgrades and the “critically important” place the regional rails play in the Boston-to-Washington, D.C., corridor.

Wright noted the corridor constitutes just 2

percent of U.S. land, but makes up 20 percent of the nation’s economic output.

After the meeting, the Business Council stressed cooperation as key to success.

“The Business Council believes a strong rail connection to the global center that is New York is critical to the economic strength of our region,” officials said. “That is why we partnered with NAIOP and Stamford Downtown to invite speakers who are experts in the field of existing transportation connections between New Jersey, New York and Connecticut — and in the field of infrastructure investment financing — as it is an expensive proposition for government to take on alone.”

“This is an advocacy political movement,” McGee said. “If we have support, we have a chance of success.” But the clock is ticking and he said, “When Jersey figures out its tunnels, it will grow.”

McGee had already called the recession’s recovery “wildly uneven,” favoring Northern New Jersey and New York City.

Panel member Wright said, “If the new jobs are not going to New York City residents, the odds are 90 percent they’re in northern New Jersey.”

Wright, who also had used “wildly uneven” to describe the recovery, said, “We’re seeing employment pouring into the urban cores, particularly into New York City. This is the future we’re seeing right now.”

“Uniquely, we in the business community see this as a great opportunity to build jobs, the green economy and reduce the city’s carbon footprint,” Timpanelli said.

With dates still to be determined, Smart Town Network plans three conventions in 2016: Bridgeport; Sacramento, California and Detroit.

Dixon sees the for-profit Smart Town Network as a “gateway.”

Currently, information including case studies, technology, legislation, news and resources exists in what Dixon terms “a chaotic ecosystem/landscape.”

Carbon footprints are on the Smart Town agenda, but so, too, are improperly discarded refrigerators, mattresses and tires plaguing municipalities of all sizes. Bridgeport’s Park City Green, Dixon said — covered in the June 8 FCBJ — is recycling mattress component materials now.

To date, the Smart Town Network effort consists of Dixon and five fellow advisers, unnamed so far.

The parent company, Live Green CT, with offices in the FAME Business Incubator at Fairfield University, is well known, hosting its sixth annual Live Green CT Festival Sept. 19 and 20 at Taylor Farm Park, 45 Calf Pasture Beach Road, Norwalk. Dixon

“Uniquely, we in the business community see this as a great opportunity to build jobs, the green economy and reduce the city’s carbon footprint.”

— Paul Timpanelli

expects about 5,000 attendees at the festival, the same figure it has drawn for the past several years.

The success of the festival could bode well for Dixon’s new holistic environmental effort. It has become a Norwalk fixture and features powerhouse sponsors Xerox,

Pepsi/FritoLay and Stop & Shop.

Admission is free.

This year, among other attractions, the festival features a replica of the plane allegedly f lown several times above eastern Fairfield County by Gustave Whitehead, beginning two years before the Wright Brothers first flew at Kitty Hawk. Event co-chairpersons are Irene Dixon and Yvonne Hickey.

Norwalk Mayor Harry Rilling also weighed in on the Smart Towns effort, praising the sustainability efforts of Norwalk businesses Aitoro Appliances, ShopRite and Stop & Shop and the efforts of his city’s Energy and Environment Task Force. He also will cut the festival kickoff ribbon and called the festival “a great family event that encourages businesses as well as community members to save money, become more energy efficient and practice conservation.”

“The Smart Town Network is very much needed,” Mike Tetreau, first selectman for the town of Fairfield, said. “Sustainability is a concept whose time has come. It is economically viable. The town of Fairfield is saving $2.5 million every year on the use of renewable fuels. We all need to share best practices to continue to save money and save the environment.”

Somber memorial rises in Cos Cob

W

orkers have put the final touches on the September 11th Memorial/Greenwich in Cos Cob Park in time for the ribbon-cutting on the morning of Sept. 11, the 14th anniversary of the attacks.

Frank Petrillo, co-owner of Mount Vernon, N.Y.-based Petrillo Stone Corp., Nicholas Rotondi, a project manager at Greenwich-based Charles Hilton Architects and Fred Durante, president of Stamford-based Fred N. Durante Jr. LLC Landscaping Services, came to the memorial to oversee the work. All three companies were involved in building the project, including Greenwich-based Doyle Herman Design Associates.

The names of the 32 people with ties to Greenwich who died in the attack are inscribed on the two 12-foot glass towers with a flag motif at the top. The memorial was built into a hillside in the park overlooking the Indian Harbor.

The towers sit on gray pavement, reminiscent of the Twin Towers, encircled by wildflowers and benches.

In the spring the Greenwich Community Projects Fund, a nonprofit providing community funding for special town projects, held a ceremony to mark the beginning of construction after six years of planning and fundraising.

Petrillo said the architects did a fabulous job making sure everything came together in a short period of time.

“It’s emotional when I come up here,” Petrillo said. “I think the project’s in a wonderful location.”

He is part of a seasoned team of professionals who exemplify Wilmington Trust’s 112-year heritage of successfully advising business owners.

Heads of successful family businesses are often reluctant to share control and involve other family members in the management process. But do you know what would happen to your business if you suddenly became incapacitated or worse, passed away?

Who would step in to manage day-to-day operations? And even if you have a successor in mind, is that successor ready and capable of stepping up and running the business?

Starting early. Ideally, succession planning should begin the day you take over a business. Of course, that isn’t always realistic given the amount of work running a business takes, but succession planning needs to be a top priority. Most importantly, you will need to decide if you want to keep the business in the family or eventually sell it.

Looking down the road. To make the important decisions, you have to think about how you envision your retirement. You’ll need to determine if you want to be actively involved in the business in some capacity for the remainder of your life. You should ask yourself if you want to be chairman of the board and collect the net income. And

you should know whether the business will generate sufficient cash flow to support you and your family in retirement.

ASK ANDI

BY ANDI GRAY

What’s my sweat equity worth?

Starting to think about selling the business and wondering what it might be worth. My family and I have invested a lot of time, energy and hard work building our business.

We’re still a few years away from selling out. But if something were to happen to me and we had to get out quickly, or if a good offer came along, I’d want to know what the business is worth. Suggestions?

THOUGHTS OF THE DAY: There are several ways to get a ballpark value. Working backwards from what you need is always a good idea

if you have the time left to do so. Get an estimate of value now so you know what gaps you have to fill. Have a rapid action plan ready in case of emergency.

There are several ways to get a ballpark value.

Although they make up 99 percent of all businesses operating in the U.S., privately held businesses are financially nearly invisible. Compare the number of pages devoted to public and private companies in the business section of any major newspaper. Diverse businesses, without standards for reporting other than tax returns, are difficult to compare.

Is one company performing better than another? What defines better?

And yet, there is a common thread. All businesses eventually do get valued when

they’re sold. Unfortunately, even these transactions are opaque as consulting or employment contracts displace share value, and wrap up of assets and liabilities gets mixed into personal tax returns.

Three common methods of valuation are, first, net asset, what’s left after paying off debts? Second, income, also known as discounted future benefit from likely cash flow. The third method is market . What have other businesses gone for?

Comparing values may show advantages of one method over another.

When considering market value, focus on multiples — things that can have a multiplier effect to get top dollar such as strong customer list, strong product or service, lots of expertise, patents, production skill, great brand, golden handcuffs on key employees,

turnkey operation and a list of potential buyers who know and like what your company has.

Be prepared to wade through terms like fair market value, cap rates, intended use, terminal value, competitive forces, business risk, assumptions and limiting conditions.

The American Institute of CPAs website has a highly detailed description of business valuation factors. Consider hiring a business broker or valuation expert who has data and expertise. Keep your eye on the trends of the overall market relative to your business, to gauge when might be the best and least advantageous times to sell.

Working backwards from what you need is always a good idea if you have the time left to do so.

Given that you’re not yet ready to retire, figure out your retirement and legacy goals now. Add up your other assets: house, Social Security and retirement funds. Figure out how much more is needed to meet your goals, then decide what has to happen with your business to fill the gap.

Periodically get an estimate of what the business is worth. Use that value as a gauge of the business’s overall progress. Remember, the single biggest gauge of value is ability to make a profit as demonstrated on annual tax returns. Don’t sell the business short by driving to zero profit – zero equity growth each year – just to avoid paying some taxes.

Have a rapid action plan ready in case of emergency. It’s worth spending some time thinking what to do if something were to happen to you. A written plan will help everyone stay on point with the business.

Who would immediately step in to keep things going? If sale is the logical next step, who would help you sell the business? When was the last valuation done, to give everyone a ballpark? What’s been done to protect the business’ value if something should happen to you?

Danbury’s NewOak to hire 10 for technology

ewOak, a financial services advisory firm in Danbury, said it will hire 10 employees to support its expanding financial technology solutions group.

The appeal underscores both the increasing demand for technology talent in business and the challenge of finding it, the company said.

NewOak Chief Technology Officer Bryan Boyer recently addressed the technology skills gap before the Business Council of Fairfield County.

“Technology and development skills are no longer the sole domain of technology and software companies, nor are they only relevant to individuals working in IT departments,” Boyer said. “In today’s market, an organization’s ability to capitalize on tech-

nology, regardless of its industry sector, is one of the primary factors differentiating the most successful companies from their competition.”

Because its technology group is integral to the success of its four-pronged, financethemed business, NewOak said it identified the need for more and better technology skills. Along those lines, the company supports the Danbury Early College Opportunity program that helps 100 Danbury high school students prepare for careers in technology.

Additionally, NewOak created its technology innovation program to increase technology education and employment opportunities for regional high school and college graduates.

“The program addresses the growing

technology skills gap by offering an intensive technology training course, tuition free, intended to elevate participants’ job skills and marketability, expand Connecticut’s technology talent pool and reduce unemployment,” company officials said.

NewOak clients include international investment and commercial banks, insurance companies, asset managers, regulators and law firms.

NewOak uses analytics, data capabilities and proprietary, customizable technology to collaborate with clients “to convert complex business threats into competitive advantage across its four business lines: financial markets advisory, credit services, capital markets and asset management.”

Hampton Inn coming to Steelpointe

Hilton-owned Hampton Inn is the latest company to announce it will join Bridgeport’s Steelpointe Harbor.

The company will build a six-story, 120-room waterfront hotel between East Main and Pembroke streets. Construction will begin following the completion of work on the waterfront bulkhead, which is ongoing.

“Hilton has given their approval to go ahead with the project,” Robert Christoph, Jr., principal of Bridgeport Landing

Acadia offers brewery insurance

Development, part of Miami-based RCI Group, said. “It speaks volumes to where the project has gotten, and the comfort level national and international brands have with coming to the city of Bridgeport.”

Steelpointe Harbor, on the Steel Point peninsula, is a 2 million-square-foot waterfront development with plans for retail, restaurants and entertainment, two hotels, 1,100 mid- and high-rise residential units, 30,000 square feet of office space and a 200slip, full-service, deep-water marina.

The $50 million first phase of Steelpointe Harbor, which includes Bass Pro Shops, Starbucks, Chipotle and T-Mobile, is currently underway and will open this year.

Starbucks and Chipotle have each held job fairs within the past couple weeks. They will open in a complex located at the corner of Stratford Avenue and East Main Street with T-Mobile in the next month or so.

Bass Pro Shops will open its Steelpointe Harbor location by the end of the year.

he rapidly growing microbrewery industry is gaining the tools to support itself almost as quickly.

Located in Westbrook, Maine, Acadia Insurance, a member of Greenwichbased W.R. Berkley Corp., is launching a new insurance program targeted to small and midsize brewery operations.

According to Acadia, the brewery segment is growing fast throughout the Northeast, exceeding $1 billion in revenue in 2014. The company said the number of breweries and overall sales volume are projected to grow over the next three years.

The Colorado-based Brewers Association reported craft brewers had 11 percent volume share of the marketplace last year, up from 7.8 percent in 2013.

Fairfield and Westchester counties are already home to several breweries, with more slated to open.

Acadia’s insurance program offers all major lines of coverage that a brewery operation would need, including property and equipment, general liability, workers’ compensation, commercial auto and umbrella liability.

Acadia’s brewery program also provides targeted specialty coverage for brewries, like tank collapse coverage, product recall expense coverage and privacy breach and cyber liability.

“We identified those potential insurance gaps and added special coverage options to our brewery program in order to help our agents create a targeted insurance portfolio that fits the unique needs of individual brewery operations,” David LeBlanc, chief underwriting officer at Acadia Insurance.

Dredging work on the Bridgeport Harbor is also now moving forward with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers developing the plan.

he top concern of high-net-worth individuals is the cost of health care, according to a national Morgan Stanley survey of 1,000 such persons taken this summer that included 300 regional respondents.

Women were nearly 20 percentage points more concerned about health care than men, the survey found.

But on infrastructure issues, about which nearly eight in 10 respondents said regional infrastructure requires “major upgrades,” women were behind men on the need for fixes by 24 percent.

Ninety-four percent of high-net-worth investors regionally, including in Fairfield County, said health care costs were their top concern. That was followed by terrorism at 91 percent; war at 84 percent; energy prices at 83 percent and Social Security solvency at 80 percent.

The so-named Morgan Stanley Wealth Management Investor Pulse Poll surveyed 1,000 U.S. households with at least $100,000 in investible assets over the course of June and July. Thirty-three percent had investible assets of $1 million or more.

Females surveyed were more concerned than males about health care costs, with 58 percent saying they are “very concerned” about them, compared with 39 percent of males.

Previous surveys in this series were released in April 2013, January 2014, September 2014 and January 2015. The new poll saw investors’ confidence in their portfolios up for the third straight survey, with the number now at 92 percent expecting the status quo or better on returns.

Other findings included: Seventy-nine percent of regional high-networth investors feel major upgrades in infrastructure for their respective states are needed.

Ninety-one percent of men believe investments in infrastructure are needed in the New York metropolitan area, compared with 67 percent of women.

Seventy-eight percent of Democrats believe infrastructure investments are needed compared with 83 percent of Republicans.

And 94 percent — what Morgan Stanley called “an overwhelming number” — said upgrades were needed on roads and bridges.

Despite wide acknowledgment infrastructure investments are needed, “most are

not considering investing in industries related to infrastructure,” the survey reported.

“Only 4 percent are already investing in industries related to infrastructure improvement (i.e. construction, steel, concrete, water sanitation),” the report said.

In a daunting asterisk for infrastructure investment, 78 percent of respondents would not consider investing in infrastructure, including 69 percent of men and 89 percent of women.

Forty-nine percent of those polled expect the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates between now and mid-2016. However, there is no consensus on whether that is a good or bad idea, with 27 percent aligning with a rate hike; 24 percent saying it’s a bad idea; 25 percent saying neither; and 24 percent uncertain.

Forty percent of men favored an interest-

Females surveyed were more concerned than males about health care costs, with 58 percent saying they are “very concerned” about them, compared with 39 percent of males. rate hike, but only 10 percent of women.

Asked how Federal Reserve Chairwoman Janet Yellen, who took office in 2014, was doing, 43 percent of high-net-worth investors approved of her handling of the job; 40 percent neither approved nor disapproved.

Her approval metrics remained within single-digit spreads among Democrats and Republicans and among men and women, with all numbers falling in the 43 percent to 49 percent range.

Twenty-seven percent of women polled said the U.S. is in recession, versus 7 percent of men. Those numbers flip when asked if there will be a recession in 2016, with 23 percent of the men saying yes versus only 3 percent of women.

Ninety-two percent of respondents expect their portfolios to be the same or improve over the next 12 months — up from 85 percent in April 2013 and 89 percent in May 2014. And 84 percent expect the overall investment climate to be the same or improve over the next 12 months — up from 76 percent in January 2014 and 79 percent in January 2015.

ill Leopold remembers when Connecticut was a mecca of corporate headquarters in the 1980s and prices were a relief compared with neighboring Westchester County.

After Mutual of New York closed its real estate division, Leopold started WFL Real Estate Services LLC in 1998 in Stamford, which then, he said, was much cheaper than Westchester. One client followed him and the business grew from there, with some of his clients working with WFL since the beginning.

Now based in Norwalk, WFL provides property management, brokerage services and build-outs in Fairfield and Westchester counties’ office and retail markets. Business grew during the recession when the lack of deals hurt most brokerage firms, Leopold said. Still, he said the industry has not improved enough and the office market is weak.

“It’s been a struggle,” Leopold said of the past five years.

He said there is no job growth in Connecticut and the state is a very expensive place to do business.

WFL continues to build its portfolio by making creative deals on office space, offering hands-on services and working in the strong retail market, Leopold said.

Leopold’s firm manages about 35 properties totaling about 2 million square feet, a value of more than $800 million. Recently, WFL took over management at 411 W. Putnam Ave. and 66 Field Point Road in Greenwich as well as a retail building in South Norwalk.

Leopold said the keys to his company’s longevity are his team of 18 employees’ ability to be hands on, entrepreneurial and focused on the clients. During the recession, he said building owners realized it was better to work with WFL to manage their properties than to do it on their own.

“This way they’re not getting the calls at 2 a.m. for an emergency,” Leopold said. “We’re taking them.”

WFL’s buying power enables the firm to get discounts on utilities and labor supplies that are beneficial to the owner, Leopold

Suites and single offices are also popular for startups or individuals moving out of home offices. You have to be very creative with your deals.”

said. In 2006, Leopold opened a cleaning subsidiary of WFL, Advantage Maintenance.

Offering an array of services helped WFL during the recession, he said.

“When one was down, the other was up,” Leopold said.

To continue to gain clients, he said WFL is willing to take a one-year lease or offer incentives such as moving services or a month of free rent. Suites and single offices are also popular for startups or individuals moving out of home offices, he said.

“You have to be very creative with your deals,” he said.

Buildings that have been renovated attract tenants much faster than older offices, Leopold said. Companies are willing to spend the extra $2 per square foot to work in a nicer building, he said. Buildings with amenities especially appeal to millennials who want a modern space to work and socialize

with co-workers, Leopold said.

He has seen leasing activity from professional services such as insurance and accounting, financial services and medical offices. One of WFL’s new corporate clients is Hospital for Special Surgery in Stamford. Most of his deals are under 5,000 square feet.

Leopold said retail is a strong market now, especially restaurants. WFL worked as the broker with Westport-based H K Group Inc. to bring Off the Hook Bar and Grill, which has locations throughout the state, including Fairfield, to South Norwalk. Off the Hook Bar and Grill will take over Barcelona Restaurant and Wine Bar’s location on North Main Street when Barcelona moves in January to Norwalk’s Waypointe, a mixeduse development.

To Leopold, South Norwalk is a promising area, with technology businesses like

“I think Stamford and Norwalk are holding the state of Connecticut together right now,” Leopold said.

He said the state government needs to do a better job controlling its money and keeping companies in the state. Because taxes and insurance make Connecticut an expensive place to do business, “companies get to the point where they say, ‘Why am I doing this?’” Leopold said.

Connecticut’s advantages are its beautiful residential areas, transportation options and cheap office rent compared with New York City, Leopold said. Still, not as many Manhattan-based companies have moved north as Leopold would like. Some businesses have satellite offices in the state, but he said there are not enough headquarters.

“That’s what we’re missing,” Leopold said, adding he is concerned that GE might leave the state.

He remains optimistic about growing his Norwalk business, but Leopold is also looking out of state for the future of WFL. He is considering opening an arm in Palm Beach, Florida, which he said could use his services.

He said the market is robust in Florida, as well as Tennessee and Texas.

“There are cranes all over the place,” Leopold said. “[Connecticut’s] not there.”

their long-term financial goals, down from 85 percent in May 2014 and January 2015.

Democrats, 22 percent, and Republicans, 25 percent, were equally “very confident” of reaching their financial goals.

In the next 12 months, 85 percent expect their local economy will be the same or improve — up from a low of 79 percent in September 2014.

The recent devaluation of Chinese currency and the shockwaves it created reflected market internationalism, a trend backed up by Morgan Stanley data. Thirty-five percent of respondents said they have international investments, such as non-U.S. stocks and bonds. Of those without foreign investments, 52 percent of the Republicans said it was because they prefer to invest in U.S. companies, with 33 percent of Democrats citing the same reason.

RMS does its own building and is divided into four divisions that include construction, development, management and hospitality.

The hotel will sit on an 8.8-acre parcel approved by Danbury for development of a so-called boutique hotel along with a 100-seat restaurant and 120-seat banquet facility.

“The hotel will be located in the fast growing westside of Danbury that is home to many corporate offices, new luxury housing and hotels,” RMS officials said.

Despite the growing presence of casinos in the region — with a new gaming facility planned for Sullivan County, New York — 82 percent of investors are “not too” or “not at all” favorable toward casino stocks, with 23 percent viewing them as high risk or simply “not for me,” at 62 percent.

Financial professionals remain an important resource for high-net-worth investors, with 62 percent seeking the counsel of a financial professional. The most desired assistance among those with financial advisers is guidance on asset allocation, 88 percent, followed by clear communication about how assets can contribute to a retirement income stream, 82 percent, and market analysis, 81 percent.

The survey also touched upon water needs, discovering more than half of respondents, 57 percent, concerned with shortages across the next 10 years, but only 3 percent investing in water-based conservation funds. Eighty-eight percent said, to date, water woes have not affected their investments.

P

ennsylvania-based and publicly traded Toll Brothers, which, since 1992, has built more than 2,000 homes in 45 different Connecticut communities, is rolling out hundreds more in Danbury.

The latest benchmark for Rivington by Toll Brothers, which began in 2011, featured the recent completion of the site’s clubhouse.

Called and billed as “a new American vil-

lage,” the development on 258 wooded acres at 300 Center Meadow Lane will feature 900 units priced from the high $200,000 range.

Construction is ongoing.

Two home collections, The Hills and The Ridge, are more expensive and feature more space and amenities. The Hills prices start in the upper $300,000s and The Ridge homes are priced from the mid$400,000s. The basic home plan is found

in The Mews collection.

The development recently opened The Rivington Club, including a 15,000-squarefoot clubhouse, with a ribbon-cutting.

The clubhouse includes an indoor pool; a state-of-the-art fitness center; an aerobics/ yoga studio; a large hall for social events; a billiards room with both pool and card tables; a theater room; a full-service kitchen and an arts-and-crafts room. Outside

there are tennis and bocce courts.

“Toll Brothers has a rich history in Connecticut, having built award-winning communities and home designs and more than 2,000 homes,” Greg Kamedulski, Toll Brothers Group president, said. “We are absolutely thrilled to be building this dynamic community in Danbury. It is a terrific market and has proven to be highly successful.”

rstadt Biddle Properties Inc. in Greenwich has closed on its $10 million purchase of the 25,000-squarefoot Harrison Shopping Center on Halstead Avenue in Harrison.

Executives at the publicly traded real estate investment trust said the retail center’s anchor store, an A&P Fresh Supermarket, most likely will be replaced by a “prominent” grocer following A&P’s parent company’s recent bankruptcy filing.

Built in 1957 by the Claremon family, the seller in the deal with Urstadt Biddle, the shopping center — near the Metro-North

Harrison station — also includes a bakery, hair salon, florist, restaurants and AT&T as long-term tenants.

James Aries, Urstadt Biddle’s acquisitions director, said the Greenwich company’s long-standing relationship with the Harrison property’s previous owner began in a management role and “enabled us to close on this acquisition quickly and quietly, which was critical to the selling family.”

Aries said improvements to the center “will largely be driven by the replacement grocer.”

The Jewel of Redding: New Pond Farm As we celebrate our 30 anniversary, I am so pleased to introduce you to New Pond Farm Education Center, one of my favorite places in the world.

This extraordinary environmental center’s mission is to connect people with the land that enriches and sustains us all. Our enthusiastic staff has the joy of sharing hands-on programs with more than 5,000 schoolchildren and teachers each year in addition to offering an exciting array of programs to New Pond members and the public.

With open vistas into the foothills of the Berkshires, and 102-acres of rolling pastures, woodlands and wetlands, New Pond Farm is known as “the Jewel of Redding.” It was once the home of our founder, actress and environmentalist Carmen Mathews. Our exceptional facilities include an authentically recreated Woodland Indian encampment, astronomy buildings, a sugar shed and a series of barns that house our herd of dairy cows as well as sheep and chickens.

Our Learning Center, with its historic timbers, soaring cupolas, classrooms and spacious meeting areas, is home to our programs, art shows, adult lecture series, barn dances, theatrical performances and more.

In the summer we host a small and personal residential camp that brings together children from the inner cities of Connecticut and children from the surrounding area.

Together these youngsters, ages 8 to 12, from diverse backgrounds form friendships, develop an understanding and appreciation of one another, and have a marvelous time discovering the many wonders of the farm.

On Sept. 12, we will celebrate our 30th anniversary as a nonprofit organization and welcome back the Paul Winter Consort.

Arts & Culture of Fairfield County

Introducing the Rebirth Arts Festival Rebirth Arts Festival is the creation of a group of young independent artists and entrepreneurs from Fairfield County.

Working in their respective fields, which vary from filmmaking to journalism to stage lighting, they aim to realize their dreams by building relationships with their talented neighbors and place collaboration before competition. How? Host a free, public festival that will supercharge Connecticut’s artistic community. The inaugural event, slated for August 2016, will feature films under the open sky, more than 15 local bands and an interactive art gallery that will illuminate and transform an 18-acre Easton hilltop. While the first year will be a private, limited capacity event, it is a crucial opportunity for the Rebirth team to make a compelling case for expansion to a public space in the years to come.

You can take part in this thrilling endeavor by attending the Rebirth Arts Festival Fall Fundraiser Sept. 25. Not only will attendees be guaranteed admission to next year’s twoday festival, they will also get an exclusive sneak peek at Rebirth with performances from Jen Durkin & The Business and Funky Dawgz Brass Band, displays from contributing artists and a silent auction. All proceeds will directly support

the cultivation of an all-new collective of artists working to engage with and fortify their communities. It is the first step in the construction of a uniquely Connecticut festival that will enrich our state’s cultural identity.

To view the initial roster of artists, and to purchase fundraiser tickets, please visit rebirthartsfestival.com.

Silvermine’s free Annual ArtsFest On Sept. 20, Silvermine’s free annual ArtsFest celebrates its fifth year. Join Fairfield County’s premier arts center for an afternoon of fun for all ages. The day will include art exhibitions, hands-on art activities for children and adults, a performance of Street Beat’s Parkour Percussion and the continuing outdoor exhibit of Carole Eisner’s steel sculptures.

Street Beat is a kinetic, maximum energy explosion of urban rhythm and dance, utilizing junk, household items and found objects for drums and percussion and featuring modern “street” choreography. Merging African, Cuban, Latin, West African and jazz concepts, this show is as thrilling to watch as it is to hear. With their explosion of energy and their troupe of drummers and dancers, they play to sold-out crowds at contemporary dance festivals and other venues.

Their dynamic stage production is contagious fun.

To celebrate visual art that has its origins in the urban landscape, Silvermine will also present “Un-known: Deconstructing Graffiti Culture.” This exhibition, curated with artist Jahmane West, will include work from the collection of Peter Bondi. The show will explore a “deconstructed” view of graffiti art by immersing the viewer into the various pro-

cesses, tools, mediums and techniques used by graffiti artists. Each artist will create an on-site habitat exhibiting their various tools of the trade, sketches and partial and complete works, creating an environment for open discussion and inquiry into the unknown world of graffiti culture. Artists will include Jah, Es, Dooley-o, Pace, Revenge and Geli. For more information, visit silvermineart.org.

HUMAN RESOURCES

State’s Challenging Small Business Environment

Employees Behaving Badly

T

wo reports released this month illustrate the continuing challenges state and local government policies pose for small businesses in Connecticut.

The first, the latest annual Small Business Friendliness Survey from the hiring and networking website Thumbtack.com, gave the state an ‘F’.

Only Rhode Island and Illinois fared worse among all states. Texas and New Hampshire received the highest grades.

A year ago, Thumbtack ranked Connecticut 35th, grading the state’s small business environment with a ‘D.’

W

hining, pouting, and temper tantrums are no longer confined to elementary school playgrounds or reality TV show reunions: Such childish behavior is also prevalent in today’s workplace.

According to a new CareerBuilder survey, 3 in 4 employees (77%) have witnessed some type of childish behavior among colleagues in the workplace.

The national online surveys were conducted on behalf of CareerBuilder

by Harris Poll between May 14 and June 3, 2015, and included a representative sample of more than 3,000 full-time, U.S. workers and more than 2,000 full-time, U.S. hiring and human resources managers across industries and company sizes.

When asked which child-like behaviors they’ve witnessed colleagues displaying in the workplace, workers gave the following answers:  Whine: 55%  Pout over something that didn’t go his/her way: 46%  Tattle on another coworker: 44%  Play a prank on another coworker: 36%  Make a face behind someone’s back: 35%  Form a clique: 32%

“I would have been surprised if the state had gotten a grade that was any higher,” said CBIA economist Pete Gioia in response to the latest Thumbtack survey.

 Start a rumor about a coworker: 30%

The state performed little better in the latest Intuit QuickBooks’ Small Business Index, which reported that employment at Connecticut companies with fewer than 25 workers declined by .06 percent in July.

 Throw a tantrum: 27%

Most states added jobs for the month, with Idaho, Nevada, Minnesota and Alabama posting the largest gains.

Ten states posted declines, with the largest drops in Massachusetts, New York, Ohio, and Utah.

Webster Bank economist Donald Klepper-Smith said that having such a difficult climate for small businesses “puts Connecticut on a slippery slope.”

 Storm out of the room: 29%

 Refuse to share resources with others: 23% These behaviors do not go unnoticed by management. When asked to name specific immature or adolescent behaviors they have seen at work, employers reported the following observations of one or more employees:  Company owner threw tantrums, yelled, and slammed doors when he didn’t get his way.  Employee hid to get away from duties and work responsibility.

“Small businesses are the seed for Connecticut’s economy and we’ve failed to instill a level of confidence in them,” he said.

 Employee intentionally set up a coworker to get him/her in trouble.

“You want to nurture these companies in their early stages and you want to create an environment that companies feel they can grow and invest.”

 Employee blocked parking spots to prevent other employees from parking closer to the front door.

Thumbtack surveyed over 220 Connecticut small businesses, measuring their responses across a number of categories, including taxes, regulations, ease of starting a business, and employment, labor, and hiring.

 Employee gossiped about all of his direct reports then pretended to be their advocate.

“Connecticut small businesses tell us the environment is extremely challenging for small business owners and that the state isn’t offering enough support to navigate the difficult regulatory environment,” said Thumbtack chief economist Jon Lieber.

Gioia called for a cohesive strategy focusing on making the business climate better for all companies, saying that would go a long way to changing overall attitudes.

“We’ve got to stop picking winners and losers,” he said.

“The smaller companies hear the unfortunate rhetoric that was directed at General Electric during the last budget cycle and say, ‘If that’s what they think of GE, how do they feel about me?’  Read more at cbia.com

 Employee ate other employees’ food from the company refrigerator.

 Employee constantly pulled up inappropriate content on her cell phone and showed it to her “clique.”  Employee went to lunch and never came back.

“Some degree of what we may consider ‘adolescent’ conduct can be harmless, enabling employees to let off some steam and even promote a sense of camaraderie in the office,” said Rosemary Haefner, chief human resources officer at CareerBuilder.

“But there’s a fine line between innocent fun and inappropriate behavior.

Actions like spreading rumors, ‘tattling,’ and forming cliques to exclude others can be perceived as mean-spirited, bullying, and even harassment.”  Read more at cbia.com/hr
