Hotel hard sell by mayor alleged in Mount Vernon bheltzel@westfairinc.com

A

Mount Vernon property owner has sued Mayor Richard Thomas, the city’s Industrial Development Agency and the agency’s business development director for $15.1 million, claiming that they stymied his attempts to sell his property.

Alan Landauer of White

Plains, who owns three acres at 1 Bradford Road, said that Thomas and Roberta James, the IDA official and a real estate broker, insisted that a developer build a hotel or commercial complex, for which the land was not zoned, instead of housing. After the project collapsed because of obstructions by the city, he alleges, James asked him for exclusive rights to represent him in selling the property.

In a federal lawsuit filed on Dec. 18 in White Plains, Landauer accus-

es Thomas and James of “stripping him of any economically viable use of his property” and of depriving him of the ability to realize a reasonable return on his investment.

The mayor’s spokeswoman, Maria Donovan, said Landauer’s proposal for 1 Bradford Road “was a bad deal for Mount Vernon. It did nothing to bring real jobs to Mount Vernon or expand the commercial tax base.

The IDA’s obligation is to encourage economic growth that benefits the whole city, not simply sign off on every deal that is presented.”

James told the Business Journal she could not respond to the allegations because she had not yet seen the lawsuit.

n Dec. 10, bitcoin futures trading began on the Cboe Futures Exchange. The initial surge of activity was so overwhelming that the Cboe temporarily went down. The following day, bitcoin futures opened at $15,000 and closed at $18,545, a 23.6 percent spike.

For Christopher Salem, a Danbury-based business and personal development consultant, the Cboe launch of bitcoin trading was a missed opportunity. “I’m usually ahead of the curve on a lot of investments before the general population catches up, but not on this one,” he said. “It has been around for eight years and when it began there were very few people, who were mining it for pennies.”

For Eric Meermann, vice president of Palisades Hudson Financial Group in Stamford, bitcoin spells nothing but trouble. “I don’t think it has any place in an individual investor’s portfolio,” he said. “This is the biggest bubble I’ve seen in my 17 years as a financial adviser and it is the biggest bubble that we’ve seen since the Dutch tulip bubble of 1637.”

Others in the business community are confused by or just not interested in the trading phenomenon. “For the life of me, I cannot wrap my head around bitcoin,” said Brett Nyitray, director of capital markets at iServe Residential Lending in Stamford.

“I am clueless on bitcoins,” said Mickey Herbert, president and CEO

of the Bridgeport Regional Business Council. “The issue has yet to be brought to my attention by any of our 750 BRBC members.”

The concept of bitcoin as a cryptocurrency was introduced in November 2008 in a paper titled, “Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System,” that was distributed to a mailing list of cryptography experts. Neil Howe, head of the demography sector at Hedgeye Risk Management in Stamford, noted that there was something unusual about the person credited with inventing the bitcoin concept.

“The guy who founded it is Satoshi Nakamoto,” Howe said.

“No one knows who he is. He may not exist at all.”

Bitcoin production is done in a process called “mining,” which uses special software to solve computationally challenging puzzles. Bitcoin units are mined in blocks and anyone can participate in building the bitcoin block chain. Howe said that Nakamoto’s plans set a specific parameter for bitcoin production, but that is in danger of disappearing.

“In the original algorithm, it would never be over 21 million” bitcoin units, he said. “Now, there are 16 million to 17 million out there, with more being distributed or mined. This is something of a nutty area, where a group of miners can branch off a chain and start a new series of blocks. The currency could split, and that is called a fork. You can have either a hard fork or a soft fork.”

“It is complex,” Howe said. » BITCOIN, page 8

KFC chicken claims don’t fly with judge

BY BILL HELTZEL bheltzel@westfairinc.com

A

federal judge in White Plains has dismissed a lawsuit against KFC in which a Hopewell Junction woman claimed that a bucket of fried chicken had sickened her.

Judge Nelson S. Roman ruled on Dec. 13 that the woman had failed to allege a

plausible claim.

Last year, Anna Wurtzburger sued KFC, the chicken chain formerly known as Kentucky Fried Chicken, for $20 million, claiming that the Yum! Brands subsidiary had engaged in deceptive advertising and practices.

Wurtzburger said she bought an eightpiece bucket of chicken in July 2016 after seeing a television commercial featuring actor George Hamilton as Colonel Harland

Sanders, founder of the fast food franchise.

She paid $20 for the chicken.

The commercial depicted a bucket overflowing with chicken. It stated that “the meal could feed your whole family.” But her bucket was not overflowing, Wurtzburger said. It “contained way less chicken than was shown in the advertisement.” She said KFC was cheating customers by underfilling buckets of chicken.

What’s more, she alleged that the

Colonel’s chicken injured her.

“Her stomach was upset with acid reflux and her gall bladder was removed and she had pain in her stomach and later found out the chickens were injected with hormones and injured plaintiff,” attorney Pamela J. Gabiger of Poughkeepsie wrote in the amended complaint. “This happened every time she ate the chicken.”

She returned to the Hopewell Junction KFC once a week from June through August 2016 and bought pot pie, which also made her sick.

The lawsuit goes on to describe a series of alleged practices, for instance, pumping steroids into baby chickens to make them grow faster.

“Just pulling up beside a chicken truck years ago,” Gabiger wrote to bolster Wurtzburger’s contention that she was injured by KFC chicken, “feathers would be flying, chickens jumping around in their cages. Now they are dead looking, like zombies, almost lifeless.”

KFC asked the court to dismiss the complaint for failure to state a legitimate claim.

Judge Roman agreed. He was not buying the heartburn and the larger-than-necessary-packaging arguments.

She received the precise number of chicken pieces she bought. The alleged deception, Roman said, is that she expected the bucket of chicken to be filled to the rim with more chicken than she ordered.

He found no merit to the claim that the ad pitch — “the meal could feed your whole family” — is misleading. “Plaintiff fails to indicate how the phrase is deceptive or misleading,” Roman said, “other than to deem it so.”

As to her injuries, Wurtzburger merely alleges “acid reflux, and nothing more. Such allegations are insufficient and fall short of the injury sought to be addressed by the statutes,” the judge ruled.

‘Meathead bible’ author calls for change in restaurant world

BY ALEESIA FORNI

I

aforni@westfairinc.com

n the wake of a slew of sexual harassment claims that have reached industries ranging from health care to Hollywood, famed chef and television host Anthony Bourdain is raising his voice in support of the #MeToo movement. One of the movement’s catalysts for public exposure has been Bourdain’s girlfriend and her allegations of sexual assault at the hands of a powerful executive.

“The quality of life has to improve” in the restaurant industry, Bourdain told an audience at a Dec. 19 graduation ceremony at his alma mater, the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park. “As chefs, as leaders, as employers, we are going to have to start addressing this in a very serious way.”

“What kind of a place do we want to work in? What kind of leaders do we want to be?” he asked the crowd in the school’s Marriott Pavilion auditorium. “It’s not just how are we going to behave as professionals, as employers, as leaders, but what kind of behavior will we accept in our presence?”

That question is one Bourdain himself has had to wrestle with in recent months.

Allegations of sexual misconduct recently pointed to two of his well-known contemporaries in the industry, chef-owner Mario Batali and restaurateur Ken Friedman.

“What will we do about the things that we see? The way others behave? How are we going to account for ourselves a week later, a year later, 10 years later, 20 years later, when we look at our hearts and we say, ‘I saw a lot of ugly behavior and I did nothing’? Do not be that person,” he said.

Bourdain got his start at the Culinary Institute of America four decades ago, graduating in 1978. He went on to work at New York City eateries, including Supper Club and One Fifth Avenue before becoming an acclaimed writer, author and television host. His various series, including Travel Channel’s “Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations” and CNN’s “Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown,” have earned him more than a dozen Emmy nominations and four wins.

Bourdain in his graduation address pointed to his first work of nonfiction, “Kitchen Confidential: Adventures in the Culinary Underbelly.” The book chronicles his professional history and offers a behindthe-scenes look at restaurant kitchens.

“I wrote a book as a working cook, as a working chef, intending to entertain a

few line cooks, a few fry cooks down the street. This was my highest ambition for this thing,” he said. “I wrote an honest book reflecting who I was at that time, what little I knew and saw of the world.”

Today, however, Bourdain has a different take on “Kitchen Confidential,” which became a New York Times bestseller and propelled him to stardom.

“I realize in writing it, in being so proud of having endured a very tough world, a very different kitchen and restaurant world than you are going to experience, by celebrating that, by glorifying that, by being proud of it, by romanticizing it, I was writing a meathead bible. It has been dismissively referred to many times by women in this business, and rightly so, as the 'bro bible.'”

Bourdain previously has said his view changed because of his girlfriend Asia Argento, the Italian actress and film director who was one of the first women to come forward with allegations of assault against movie producer Harvey Weinstein.

The author-chef said he feels strongly remorseful that his book prolonged a culture that allowed harassment to exist and even thrive. “If there’s a harasser in the kitchen who’s a jerk, chances are he’s got a copy of my book on his station,” he told his Hyde Park audience. “And I’m going to have to live with that.”

For more than a century, most kitchens have operated under the brigade system, which organizes positions in a strict hierarchy of authority and responsibility.

“The system was not designed to uplift or to educate,” Bourdain said. “For many years, the system was to push, to haze, to pressurize, to try to make them break.”

It was designed to allow kitchen higher-ups to ensure their underlings would not crack under pressure.

As a result, said Bourdain, the brigade system has filled the industry with many who exemplify “grotesque behavior.”

“Look around you,” he said. “You’re seeing giant, hundred-million-dollar empires vaporized overnight because of really hideous behaviour by a few people in that organization.”

Bourdain said this new reality is something all actors in the restaurant business will need to address.

“Please, go out there in this new world that is being created right in front of us, right now, today and tomorrow and over the next few weeks and months and years,” he said, “and change that world for the better.”

Manhattan sensibility thrives at expanded Westchester salon

BY ALEESIA FORNI

T

aforni@westfairinc.com

hough traditionally a 10-year anniversary means a gift of tin or aluminum, a pair of salon owners in Larchmont recently celebrated that milestone in a different way — with an expansion into retail.

Hair stylists Massimo DiCicco and Dawn Bruckner, owners of Salon Firefly at 2134 Boston Post Road in Larchmont, saw an opportunity when a neighboring boutique adjoining their salon closed up shop last year. The duo decided to tear down part of the wall that divided the two spaces and convert the additional 400 square feet into retail.

“Really, Dawn and I were here on our days off jackhammering,” DiCicco said of the expansion. “I think I lost part of my hearing.”

The storefront, which opened earlier this summer, features exposed brick, hardwood floors and a pallet-covered accent wall.

"The idea of the extension of the space was just to free up more room in the salon,” DiCicco said. “It gave us the flexibility of bringing in a couple of cool product lines.”

Wooden shelves and cabinets display a variety of those new product lines, from Italian shaving cream and all-natural hair products from California to scented candles and a full range of hair care items from Bumble and bumble Products LLC, a brand owned by Estee Lauder Cos. Inc. The business partners met and are still employed at Bumble and bumble’s flagship salon in Manhattan.

Bruckner started her career at the iconic New York City salon when she was just 19. She spent the next 24 years working her way up the ranks to become a teacher in the salon’s apprenticeship program.

Like Bruckner, DiCicco also spent his entire career with Bumble, starting with the company in 1998. He went on to teach techniques he learned at the salon at roadshows and seminars worldwide and styled hair for fashion shows in New York and across Europe.

Because many of their longtime clients made their way to the Manhattan salon from their homes in Westchester, setting up shop within the county made sense for DiCicco and Bruckner. The move would also mean a shorter commute for the Westchester residents, both of whom were parents of young children at the time. Bruckner lives in New Rochelle while DiCicco travels to the salon from his home in Mamaroneck.

The pair said they had talked occasionally about going into business together before DiCicco stopped Bruckner one day at Bumble.

“I actually approached her in the hallway and said, ‘Do you want to open up a salon?’ and she said, ‘I’m ready,’” he recalled.

The opportunity for a venture of their own presented itself when DiCicco found an available space in Larchmont.

“I’m always looking around at real estate for some reason, and I saw this space opened up and I’m like, ‘I really like this,’” he said.

Formerly an antiques shop, the 1,000-square-foot retail space was converted by the duo into their dream salon. Salon Firefly opened its doors in June 2007.

Mid-Hudson region to get $84.8M in state funding

BY RYAN DEFFENBAUGH rdeffenbaugh@westfairinc.com

A

bout $85 million in state grants and tax credits has been awarded to 113 development projects in the mid-Hudson Valley region, in the annual competition for state development funding.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced the awards in Albany on Dec. 13. The grant money comes from the latest round of funding in the state’s Regional Economic Development Council initiative, a program launched by Cuomo at the start of his administration in 2011 as an attempt to spur job creation and economic development.

Under the program, 10 designated regions in the state compete for economic and community development funding each year. For the seventh application round, state agencies awarded more than $750 million for capital projects throughout the state.

The Mid-Hudson Regional Economic Development Council, which represents Westchester, Rockland, Putnam, Orange, Dutchess, Ulster and Sullivan counties, was designated a “Top Performer” in this round of funding. That means the region, along with four other regions, is eligible for around $80 million in state funds. The remaining five regions received about $60 million. Central New York, Mohawk Valley, the Capital Region and Long Island were the other regions to receive the top designation.

Last year, the mid-Hudson region received about $83 million in state money for 105 development projects.

In Westchester, 23 projects will receive more than $10 million total this year. Major private and public capital projects to receive funding in the county this year include the following: • The Bowery of Port Chester, a 30,000square-foot proposed brewery in the village's downtown, was awarded $2 million. The space would include a midsize production brewery, taproom and a covered parking lot with 200 spaces.

• BioInc@NYMC, New York Medical College’s biotech-focused incubator, will receive $1.25 million through the state’s Innovation Hot Spot Support Program, which provides operating grants for designated “Innovation Hot Spots” that promote entrepreneurial activities.

• The village of Port Chester will receive $1.17 million from the Department of State's

Local Waterfront Revitalization Program to build a new bulkhead along the Byram River in its downtown.

• Manhattan developer The Lela Goren Group will receive $1 million toward its redevelopment of the century-old Glenwood Power Plant near Yonkers’ Glenwood Metro-North Railroad station. The project would turn the plant into a cultural destination and performance space. The project received $1 million in state economic development funding in 2012 for its phase one restoration project.

The second phase will focus on infrastructure improvements and rehabilitating buildings on site, including the building’s large Turbine Hall.

TWB Beusman WCBJ • The city of New Rochelle will receive a $1 7.375” w xfrom 7.125” h State Development million grant Empire to 10/30/17 build a “green parking garage” at 25 Maple Ave. in the city. It will accommodate 400 cars, with spaces for car-sharing, electric vehicle charging and on-street bike storage.

• New Rochelle will also receive $804,000 to reduce travel lanes on Quaker Ridge Road

from four to two. The funds, from the state Department of Environmental Conservation’s Climate Smart Communities Program, will be used to create bicycle lanes on each side of the street and create new crosswalks. The funding would also be utilized for parking and signal upgrades on North Avenue in the city.

• The Westchester Children’s Museum will receive a $824,000 grant to expand exhibit and operational space in Rye Playland’s historic bathhouse.

• The Music Conservatory of Westchester in White Plains will receive $500,000 for a number of facility improvements. The school will add a piano technology lab, recording studio and new studios for jazz, ensembles and music therapy.

There also are major projects across the Hudson River and farther north in the Hudson Valley.

• In Kingston, JM Development Group LLC, in partnership with Herzog Supply Co., was awarded $2 million from Empire State

Development for the Kingstonian Uptown Revitalization Project. The $48 million mixeduse development project would serve as a cornerstone to the city's historic Stockade District. The project would add 129 market-rate apartments, 9,000 square feet of retail space and a 38-room boutique hotel, built around a 450-space parking garage.

• The redevelopment of the historic Hutton Brickyards in Kingston by Los Angeles-based developer MWest Holdings LLC will receive a $1 million grant. Already home to the northern expansion of Brooklyn's Smorgasburg food market, the project would turn the former industrial site on the Hudson River into an entertainment and community venue.

• Mediprint LLC, a medical 3-D printing company in Goshen, has been awarded $1.2 million toward a design and production laboratory in Orange County. The facility would serve as administrative headquarters and provide medical 3-D printing services for medical centers nationwide.

UNIMIN CORP. TO MERGE WITH FAIRMOUNT SANTROL Unimin Corp., a New Canaan-based subsidiary of the Belgian industrial minerals company SCR-Sibelco, has announced a merger with Fairmount Santrol, a Chesterland, Ohio-based provider of high-performance sand and sand-based products used by energy companies to enhance the productivity of their oil and gas wells. The merged entity, which has yet to be given a new name, will be listed on the New York Stock Exchange and is forecast to have a revenue of approximately $2 billion.

Unimin Corp. is a producer of low-iron nepheline syenite used in glass, ceramic, paint and plastics. According to its website, the company is both the largest producer of quartz proppants or frac sand, for oil and natural gas stimulation and recovery and the world’s leading producer of the high-purity quartz used in the fabrication of integrated circuits, solar photovoltaic cells and high-intensity lighting.

Under the terms of the merger agree-

ment, Fairmount shareholders will receive $170 million in cash and will own 35 percent of the combined company, with Sibelco owning the remaining 65 percent. Sibelco will also retain control of Unimin’s high-purity quartz business, which mainly serves electronics manufacturers in Asia. The new board of directors is expected to be 11 members, six of whom will be recommended by Sibelco and the rest from Fairmount.

Jenniffer Deckard, Fairmont’s president and CEO, will serve as CEO and a director of the new company, while Sibelco has the right to nominate an independent board chairman.

CNH FINANCE MOVING GREENWICH OFFICE CNH Finance LP, an asset-based lender headquartered in Bethesda, Maryland, is relocating its Greenwich office to a new 3,423-square-foot prebuilt suite on the first floor of 330 Railroad Ave. in Greenwich.

The company, which has its offices two blocks west at 2 Greenwich Plaza, will occupy

its new office on Jan. 1. CNH Finance marks the third lease this year at the recently renovated commercial property, which brings the building to over a 55 percent occupancy rate. The building’s other tenants include Stone Point Capital in a 1,281-square-foot suite and Granoff Architects, which has its headquarters in a 9,000-square-foot space.

Richard Granoff, the owner of Granoff Architects, is also co-owner of the property, a three-story 1928 building that was a Connecticut Light & Power work station until 2014. Granoff and business partner Jeffrey B. Mendell bought the property in March 2016.

FORMER UBS HQ IN STAMFORD SOLD FOR $33M The long-vacant office complex at 677 Washington Blvd. in Stamford, formerly home to UBS, has been sold to Stamford Washington Investors LLC and Stamford Washington Land LLC for $33 million.

The Stamford Washington entities are apparently owned by AVG Partners, a private equity group based in Beverly Hills that specializes in the acquisition of commercial properties nationwide. Stamford Director of Economic Development Thomas Madden confirmed that AVG now owns both the building and the property. According to the city clerk’s office, AVG acquired the property’s loan in April for about $54 million.

The 700,000-square-foot building at 677 Washington Blvd. has been empty since UBS relocated last year to 600 Washington Blvd., where Royal Bank of Scotland is also a tenant. Listed as the seller in the deal was Gateway Land Corp., which is also at 600 Washington Blvd.

AVG and UBS did not immediately return calls seeking further details.

NEW MANAGING PARTNER AT KPMG STAMFORD Manish D. Madhavani has been named Stamford office managing partner at audit, tax and advisory firm KPMG LLP. A partner in the firm’s financial services practice, Madhavani will now be responsible for the strategic direction and growth of the office and continue to serve financial services clients.

Madhavani has more than 20 years of experience providing audit and related services to financial services clients — many in the Stamford/Greenwich corridor — including hedge funds, private equity funds, investment advisers, broker-dealers and insurance companies.

Most recently based in New York, Madhavani started his career with KPMG India in Mumbai in 1995. He joined the U.S. firm in 1998 and was admitted to the partnership in 2006.

TECH 2018 Predictions around TALK Disaster Recovery in the Cloud who have been working in the public cloud for various workloads for a period of time.

Chief Technology Architect, Rus Healy, was one of the cloud computing experts featured in a recent blog post exploring the pros and cons of cloud-based disaster recovery moving into 2018. This is what he predicts: 1. What are your disaster recovery predictions for 2018?

DR has shown consistently higher demand over the past several years, and I think that trend will continue.

Based on the rate of growth we’ve seen, I expect that we will double the number of cloud DR customers in 2018. More of our larger customers will protect a larger percentage of their workloads in the public cloud, and those customers will also seek a multi-cloud approach to DR and production. DR will continue to pull through production workloads as well as dev and QA workloads by demonstrating the value of the public cloud.

2. What are the advantages and disadvantages of using the cloud for disaster recovery?

Cloud disaster recovery has several key advantages.

Probably the most important one is much lower cost than on-premises DR. You eliminate a whole set of infrastructure that is expensive to procure, the recurring hardware and software maintenance costs, the physical space, power, cooling, and the hours of maintenance and support for all of that infrastructure. You also gain compliance and elasticity. You can test DR at will, paying only for the run time of the machines you bring up. And you can use those DR instances for more than just DR and DR testing — you can test in-place upgrades, provide

3. Is the public cloud “tough enough” (to be used as a target) for disaster recovery?

Absolutely, yes — but you must choose cloud providers carefully. We feel that AWS has a clear and substantial advantage over other cloud providers in that regard. Their scale, architecture, and durability offer strong advantages over other cloud providers, especially in the US. You have to be diligent in evaluating cloud providers to understand where their weaknesses are in performance, downtime, cost, and other factors, before making a decision. isolated access to a vendor with production data (but not in a production-impacting way), and perform many other valuable business operations.

Disadvantages, for most end users, include the effort and time needed to get started with the public cloud, to learn the security, configuration, and management methods that are unique to the cloud environment, and to make the business case for using the public cloud.

Many companies still have not taken these steps.

That’s where good partners come in — to help customers along in that journey. Understanding how the cloud is different than on-premises infrastructure, and to design for those differences, is another challenge that many companies face. Finally, understanding cloud networking and connectivity to on-premises data centers is a new challenge for many customers — even those

4. What are the biggest disaster recovery challenges for enterprises and large organizations?

The complexity of on-premises workloads is significant even in mid-size organizations. Enterprises face many challenges, including prioritizing protection for workloads and understanding all of the dependencies between their workloads. DR involves many teams, and an evaluation and design process that they are probably not familiar with. The good news is that you can start small, get protection in place, and work through the challenging areas while still being able to recover to the public cloud in a DR event.

5. What would you include in a disaster recovery plan checklist?

• A good evaluation of on-premises workloads and

their dependencies, as well as an understanding of what cannot be protected easily (or at all) to the cloud.

• A successful pilot project, run in cooperation with a good services partner.

• Replication software that allows for very low RPO, low RTO, and supports failback to on-premises or to another cloud provider.

• A solid set of partners with great support and performance history.

• Frequent testing.

• Good documentation — a real DR run book for your DR environment, which also captures the configuration of your environment so that it can serve you best in a DR event.

• A team of people who can support you, internally and through managed services, when you need them (DR events and DR testing).

Bitcoin — » » From page 1

“You don’t know if bitcoin splits and dilutes the value.”

Federal and state regulatory oversight on bitcoin has been hampered by the decentralized and global nature of the cryptocurrency. In July, the first federal regulatory oversight of a bitcoin-specific entity occurred when the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission granted LedgerX, a cryptocurrency trading platform operator, approval to become a regulated digital currency options exchange and clearinghouse.

Four months earlier, however, the federal government rejected an effort by sibling investors Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss to register a bitcoin-based, exchange-traded fund called Winklevoss Bitcoin Trust.

On Dec. 11, Securities and Exchange Commission Chairman Jay Clayton issued a warning about cryptocurrency investing, noting that "significant trading may occur on systems and platforms outside the United States" and invested funds could "quickly travel overseas without your knowledge," resulting in greater risks and little chance for funds recovery by U.S. regulators if investments sour.

Ray Manganelli, executive dean at Mercy College School of Business, questioned the economic concept of trading in bitcoin futures.

“It has no fundamental basis of value,” he said. “Any time you look at the value of a commodity such as gold or silver, there is an

Park. Landauer bought the land and a 52,000-square-foot office-warehouse building in 2001. For 15 years he operated Landauer Metropolitan, a medical supplies business, before filing for bankruptcy in 2013 and shutting down operations there.

The land and building have been deteriorating since then and his LTTR Home Care LLC has been paying $350,000 a year in taxes and interest. The 69-year-old Landauer has been trying to sell the property to pay off debts and fund his and his wife’s retirements.

Wood Partners of Atlanta agreed to buy the property in 2014 for a 120-unit apartment building. The Mount Vernon City Council changed the zoning from industrial to residential and the IDA approved a tax abatement plan. But Wood Partners encountered community opposition and withdrew the project.

Last year, the NRP Group of Cleveland agreed to buy the property, contingent on securing tax abatement approval from the IDA. NRP’s plans also called for a 120-unit apartment building, but the developer mod-

understood underlying value of its worth.

With bitcoin, it is impossible to value. You’re making a bet, but there doesn’t appear to be a specific point of value around where the bet is being made.”

“Bitcoin is only worth what someone else is paying for it,” said Meermann at Palisades Hudson. “A currency has to hold value, but in bitcoin the process is defined by speculators trading. It is not a currency, it is a speculative investment.”

Some finance professionals, however, think bitcoin deserves to be considered as a potential investment.

“This is for someone with a higher risk tolerance and longer time horizon to consider as a smaller percentage of their portfolio,” said Maxwell Loeb, financial planner at Westchester Benefit Group Inc. in Valhalla.

“There is a fear of missing the boat,” Loeb said of the recent attention given the cryptocurrency and activity by investors with the launch of bitcoin futures trading. “There is a tremendous amount of risk and, potentially, a tremendous amount of reward. Or it could drop back to $5,000 or lower.”

Loeb warned that bitcoin is too volatile for investors trying build retirement savings or help their children accrue money for college. While he has fielded some questions from clients on bitcoin investment, “I’ve not recommended it for a single client,” he said.

Several major e-commerce sites, including Overstock.com and Microsoft, accept bitcoin payment in transactions. But Howe noted that comes with a catch.

“Some e-tail stores claim they accept

it, but they don’t accept it,” he said. “They have a contract with bitcoin exchange companies that take bitcoin off the web and exchange it into dollars.”

“There are problems with large bitcoin transactions because they can create extra volatility,” said Howe. “And it’s not very good for scaling to small expenses. If more people are doing transactions, it becomes more and more expensive. As of a couple of days ago, it cost $5 to $6 per transaction” for the consumer.

In this region, four Fairfield County businesses and four Westchester County businesses accept bitcoin payments, according to CoinMap, a website that tracks venues that accept bitcoin both locally and worldwide.

The Bumper Ball USA franchise network, which operates in both counties, also takes bitcoin in lieu of dollars.

At PC-Perfect New York, a computer repair shop in Yonkers, owner Louis Bosques said he began taking bitcoin payments two years ago as “my way of keeping up with the times.” Apparently, however, the times have not yet caught up to Bosques.

“We had one bitcoin payment and that was made last year,” he said. “It is not a very popular payment yet. People either don’t know how bitcoin works or they aren’t familiar with it.”

At iServe Residential Lending, Nyitray wondered how it would be possible to use bitcoin for real estate transactions.

“I guess it is no different than any other asset, although given the volatility of it, I would be surprised if either buyer or seller would be

comfortable dealing with a house price quoted in bitcoin,” he said. “Plus, the financing has to be in dollars, as no banks lend in bitcoin -- at least none that I am aware of.”

James R. Reynolds, portfolio manager at Ganim Financial in Bridgeport, predicted that bitcoin's viability for consumer transactions will be diminished over time. "Services such as Steam, an online gaming portal, have stopped accepting bitcoin due to its price volatility," he said. "In theory it is a great store of value, but the current market mechanics make it unrealistic as a currency for transactions. It takes too much time and energy — actual electrical energy to power computers — for someone to transact in bitcoin. Add in a layer of transaction fees and this combination makes it extremely unlikely for any store owner to accept bitcoin."

At Hedgeye Risk Management, Howe said bitcoin is the go-to currency for those who prefer to keep their business operations in the shadows.

“There is only one kind of transaction where bitcoin has a huge advantage and that is a criminal transaction,” he said, noting how governments, including North Korea and Iran allegedly used bitcoin payments to circumvent international sanctions on direct financial transactions.

Closer to home, bitcoin was the payment preference in a recent email shakedown aimed at New Canaan and Darien residents who received messages threatening to spill secrets on them unless $3,500 in bitcoin payments were made to the anonymous senders.

ified the designs to make the building seem less massive and less industrial to allay some of the concerns of neighbors. NRP Group applied to the IDA for a tax abatement, using essentially the same terms that the IDA had granted to Wood Partners.

The IDA was newly run by Thomas, who became mayor at the start of 2016, and staffed by his appointees. Thomas had named James, who had been his campaign manager and had run his inaugural committee, as the IDA’s business development director at $86,000 a year.

Thomas had already signaled his vision for Bradford Road. “I recommend to the current developer that this site be transformed into a boutique hotel with a conference center,” he said in his 2017 State of the City address, a week before NRP Group presented plans to the IDA. Landauer said Thomas told him in May that the IDA would not support NRP’s project unless it included a 75-room hotel or a retail component.

James allegedly called NRP after the State of the City address and left a message identifying herself as “with the city.” When an NRP representative returned the call, James allegedly

identified herself as a private broker and asked if NRP would be interested in selling the property to a hotel developer. The IDA official is a registered real estate broker and operates Miss Bees Realty LLC from her home.

The property was not zoned for hotel or commercial use, Landauer states in the complaint, and in all the years it was on the market no one had expressed interest in developing a hotel on the site.

“I would be delighted to sell it. It’s an albatross around my neck right now," he told the Business Journal in October. “Where he dreamed up a hotel, I don’t know.”

Despite the belief that there was no market demand for a hotel or major retail use, NRP Group added a food truck and picnic area to its plans to satisfy Thomas’ demands.

Landauer’s lawsuit states that NRP made numerous requests to get on the IDA agenda.

Each time it was rebuffed.

Thomas invited Landauer to the IDA’s June meeting. Two other projects got approvals, but the NRP project was not on the agenda. Landauer said he left the meeting puzzled as to why he was invited. Then Thomas held a press conference after the meeting in which

he unveiled several pending and proposed residential projects, but not Bradford Road.

“The clear message,” Landauer said, “was that Thomas intended to block residential development at the property and that only a hotel or catering project, or some other project, with his and James’ support would gain IDA assistance.”

The lawsuit describes a series of meetings and phone calls with Landauer or NRP representatives in which Thomas or James insisted on a hotel.

Landauer said he got a call to meet from two people who are not named in the lawsuit.

They claimed to have developed hotels in the area but had no financial backing, the lawsuit states. Landauer said he told them he had a contractual obligation to sell the property to NRP Group, “which he intended to honor.”

Finally, in early September, NRP was notified that it would be on that month’s IDA agenda, Landauer said. It was not. Thomas at the meeting repeatedly told NRP representatives to “sit down. We will not act on your application,” according to the lawsuit.

NRP then terminated its contract with

BUSINESS JOURNALS BRIEFLY NY

REGENERON AND DUTCH COMPANY COLLABORATE ON CANCER TRIALS Regeneron Pharmaceuticals Inc. in Westchester will collaborate with a Dutch immunotherapy company in clinical trials of a treatment for cervical and head-andneck cancers linked to a type of human papillomavirus.

The treatment will combine cemiplimab, an antibody being developed by Regeneron and its French pharmaceutical partner Sanofi that targets the programmed cell death protein 1 to treat multiple cancers, with ISA101, a synthetic peptide antigen that targets human papillomavirus type 16 (HVP16)-induced cancer and is the product of ISA Pharmaceuticals B.V. in Leiden, The Netherlands.

The companies announced that they will jointly fund and conduct clinical trials of the combination drug treatment and exchange product supply. HPV16 is found in approximately 55 percent of cervical cancers and more than 60 percent of headand-neck cancers, they said.

Regeneron, the state’s largest biotechnology company, also agreed to provide an upfront payment and an equity investment in ISA Pharmaceuticals in exchange for an option to an exclusive, global license for ISA101. If Regeneron opts to commercialize the drug, the Dutch company could potentially receive various milestone payments and tiered royalty payments contingent on regulatory approvals, sales and additional indications.

Further financial details of the collaboration deal were not disclosed.

"Regeneron continues to expand and advance our immuno-oncology program by studying multiple combination therapies in order to fully explore the scientific possibilities in this relatively new field," said Dr. Israel Lowy, vice president for clinical sciences and head of translational science and oncology at Regeneron headquarters outside Tarrytown. "Early clinical results with ISA101 in HPV16-positive indications have been promising, and we're eager to investigate the impact of adding cemiplimab

with the goal of further enabling the body's immune system to attack the cancer."

Cemiplimab is also being studied clinically by Regeneron and Sanofi as a monotherapy in multiple cancers and in various other therapeutic combinations.

CSARCH OPENS WHITE PLAINS OFFICE CSArch, an Albany architecture and engineering firm, has expanded into Westchester County with a new office in the White Plains Central Business District.

The firm announced that it had opened an office at 235 Main St. in White Plains.

The firm employs 90 people at offices in Albany and Newburgh.

The firm's new 4,100-square-foot space in White Plains will employ eight people, with plans to hire a senior project architect and design architect, according to Phillip Quindara, the firm's director of marketing.

Founded in 1991, CSArch provides architecture, engineering and construction management services to schools, colleges and universities, along with corporate and civic clients.

The White Plains office will serve as the firm's base in the county as well as Long Island and Connecticut. Quindara said CSArch is working with K-12 school districts in Valhalla, New Rochelle and Clarkstown in Rockland County.

Landauer. “Not only was the city failing to be a cooperative partner,” NRP official Jonathan Gertman wrote in a Sept. 25 letter to Thomas, “it was actively attempting to derail the project.”

Three weeks later, Landauer said, James called and said she might have a hotel interested in buying the property. She allegedly asked him to “give her an exclusive” on the sale of the property.

He said he refused, “finding the timing and substance of the call distasteful and patently inappropriate.”

Landauer is accusing Thomas and James of retaliation under the First Amendment, for his unwillingness to capitulate to the mayor’s demands and for violating his right not to associate with James and her purported clients. He also charges them with conspiracy, racketeering, unconstitutional taking of property and conflict of interest as municipal officials.

He accuses the IDA of abuse of discretion and of acting in bad faith to undermine the NRP project.

Landauer is asking for more than $5 million in damages on most of the charges and treble damages on the racketeering charge.

He is demanding that Thomas be removed as IDA chairman and James as an IDA employee.

BUSINESS JOURNALS IN COURT

Lab company raided by FBI wants search warrants unsealed

BY BILL HELTZEL bheltzel@westfairinc.com

H

alf of the 47 employees of AMA Laboratories Inc. have left or have been laid off in the past eight months following federal raids on the company in New City in Rockland County, and customers are taking their business to other testing labs and banks have refused to extend credit.

Those raids, in April and June, were con-

ducted in “bad faith,” the company states in letters to federal court judges in White Plains.

AMA has asked the court to unseal the warrants and stop the government from introducing seized evidence to a grand jury.

“While no indictment has been returned, the raids have understandably taken a fearful toll on the business,” the company’s attorney, Richard S. Harrow of Albany, wrote to the court. “The awareness of the raid in the commercial community continues to wreak havoc.”

Government attorneys responded that

the company has no legal grounds for its demands and it needs to keep the materials secret to protect the integrity of an ongoing investigation.

“If and when an indictment is handed down, AMA will have ample opportunity to file motions to dismiss the indictment and/or to suppress evidence,” Assistant U.S. Attorney Olga Zverovich wrote in a Nov. 22 letter to the court.

The legal dispute became public this month when a batch of letters from AMA Laboratories and the U.S. Attorney’s Office were disclosed by the court.

AMA Laboratories was founded in 1982

by Gabriel J. Letizia, the CEO and sole shareholder. The lab tests cosmetics and drug products for safety and efficacy and it produces reports and marketing materials to support customers’ claims.

On April 6 and June 20, FBI agents and detectives from the Rockland County District Attorney's Office, authorized by seven search

warrants, seized voluminous records. The company has asked the court to unseal the search warrant affidavits and supporting materials, arguing that agents had acted in bad faith.

Agents, for example, allegedly turned off 99 security cameras that monitor the six-building campus at 216 Congers Road, preventing the company, AMA claims, from recording an objective account of the government’s conduct.

One building that was searched was not covered by a warrant but Letizia’s daughter, Angelique, consented to the search.

AMA’s attorney suggested an intriguing possibility that the CEO’s daughter might have had a role in the FBI raid.

“If Ms. Letizia was either a whistleblower or informant,” Harrow states in a footnote in a letter to the court, “she may not have had the authority to consent to such a search.”

AMA says it has an “acute and dramatic” need for the search warrant documents, so that it can understand the basis of the government’s investigation and focus on an internal investigation before a criminal indictment is issued. On Nov. 10, the company asked that evidence obtained “in violation of AMA’s constitutional rights” not be allowed to be presented to a grand jury.

The company said agents persuaded employees to provide incriminating information by asserting that AMA would soon be put out of business for criminal activity and that Gabriel Letizia was going to jail.

Agents who served a federal grand jury subpoena at the home of AMA's clinical studies director, Donna Muratschew, allegedly said, “The window of opportunity is closing.”

After the employee’s attorney, Phyllis Simon of New City, invoked Muratschew’s Fifth Amendment right not to testify, the attorney received a letter stating that the employee was now considered a “target of the investigation.”

Federal attorneys responded that AMA has no constitutional rights of access or legitimate need for sealed search warrant materials in the middle of an investigation. The government claims a “compelling interest in preserving the confidentiality and integrity of its ongoing investigation.”

AMA is free to interview witnesses, the government said, gather evidence and investigate fraud within the company.

The government submitted a separate, confidential letter to the court, according to a footnote in its publicly disclosed letter, to address “the government’s compelling need to keep the search warrant materials under seal.”

AMA Laboratories asked the court to disclose the confidential letter. “This case has already been in the media and public forum for months,” the company attorney said, “and there is no risk to any potential witness.”

On Dec. 8, U.S. Magistrate Judge Paul E. Davison denied AMA’s request for disclosure of the confidential letter.

YEAR END REVIEW: FOOD & BEVERAGE, MARKETING & ADVERTISING

Fairfield landlords develop a taste for once-scorned restaurants

BY PHIL HALL phall@westfairinc.com

W

hen Antonio Greco was preparing the September opening of his restaurant Bar Zepoli at 75 Broad St. in Stamford, he acknowledged that he had plenty of competition.

“Downtown Stamford has a great food buzz,” he said. “There are a lot of restaurants, one on every corner.”

Yet Greco, who had worked with his brothers for the past 15 years at their family-owned restaurant in New Jersey, felt he was in the right place at the right time. “I was searching high and low in Fairfield County for a place to open a restaurant,” he said. “This was an opportunity that I could not pass up.”

A decade ago, however, the proliferation of restaurant spaces seen here in 2017 would have had little support in Fairfield County’s commercial real estate market.

“When I started in Fairfield County in 2008, restaurants were the last thing that landlords wanted,” recalled Jessica Curtis, senior managing director at Newmark Knight Frank in Stamford. “Restaurant economics are more of a challenge for landlords.

They have a higher electrical capacity and a more intensive use of utilities.”

What happened to change landlords’ minds?

Curtis noted the retail store tenants sought by Fairfield County landlords disappeared in the aftermath of the Great Recession and the rise of e-commerce. As a result, restaurants began to fill those vacant spaces and bring a new vibe to commercial properties.

“Now, given what transpired with retail and the Amazon effect, landlords have seen restaurants as a way to create energy and drive lots of people to a project and also serve as an anchor for a neighborhood,” said Curtis. “Anecdotally, some of the towns that we’re working with have been requesting more restaurants.”

Fairfield County’s demographics have also helped to encourage new restaurants.

Sergio Tamburlini, general manager at 129 in New Canaan, said his town was the

perfect location for a restaurant. “It is a very affluent area. I believe it has the third richest ZIP code in America. People can afford to eat out almost every night of the week. It is very rare for a New Canaan family to cook at home.”

Tamburlini noted that 129 had an advantage that start-ups in the industry rarely enjoy: it operated for 11 years as Chef Luis Restaurant and was rebranded and redesigned before opening under its new name and menu in November. But even with a new identity, Tamburlini said, 129 has continued to attract the patrons it cultivated over the years.

Tim LaBant, chef and owner of The Schoolhouse at Cannondale and the upcoming pizza-focused restaurant Parlor, both in Wilton, said that a restaurant’s success is based primarily on patrons’ emotional experience.

“It’s about service,” he said. “People will come back for the service before they come back for the food. Everybody wants to go to a restaurant and feel important. Anyone

can order take-out or make their own food, but there is something very special about being taken care of, being made to feel important. And it takes you out of the daily grind for a little bit.”

LaBant also stressed that knowing how people enjoyed their dining experience is crucial to success.

“If you ask somebody how was their meal and they say, ‘It was OK, it was good,’ you know that it wasn’t good,” he said. “But if they are like, ‘Oh, my gosh, it was amazing, I am so happy,’ then you’ve got them and you know they’re coming back.”

Along with the rewards, restaurateurs like LaBant also have their share of business-induced headaches.

“With all of its positives, the industry is a very difficult one to be in,” said Sarah Maloney, executive director of the Connecticut Restaurant Association.

“This industry carries a high overhead and very little room for profit. And locally, you have to deal with Connecticut rents, mill rates and taxes.”

FCBJ

At the state trade association in Hartford, “A few large chains contacted us about coming to Connecticut,” Maloney said. “They asked questions about doing business in the state. Unfortunately, after giving them the information they requested, they decided not to come into the state, due to regulations and the costs of doing business here.”

Finding the right real estate can also be a challenge and deterrent for franchise and chain restaurants requiring larger square footage than independently owned eateries.

“Chain restaurants often have to look harder to get into prime Fairfield County space,” said Ryan Stranko, vice president at RHYS, the commercial real estate firm in Stamford. “They are looking for standalone buildings or end caps (corner spaces) or high-profile buildings. In high-traffic areas like Connecticut Avenue in Norwalk and Bridgeport Avenue in Shelton, space is available, but it is not necessarily what they want.”

Will the county’s ongoing boom in restaurant openings glut the market?

“There should be some sort of settling out at some point,” said Curtis at Newmark Knight Frank. “An oversaturated market can theoretically only support an 'x' number of seats.”

Robert Savin, who opened Wings Over Fairfield on the town’s restaurant-heavy Black Rock Turnpike in August, agreed. “Major chains are closing and the restaurant industry is growing at twice the rate of the general population,” he said. “Too many restaurants are looking for the same dollars.”

But Greco at Bar Zepoli said the market is more than able to support a surplus of restaurants. “There is a great deal of variety and the population to support it, especially in Stamford,” he insisted.

“There is an audience for it.”

The Connecticut Restaurant Association does not anticipate a reversal ahead for a restaurant and food service industry that accounted for 154,100 jobs in the state in 2017, 9 percent of the state’s total employment. That number is projected to grow in the next decade by 7.1 percent, with an additional 11,000 positions in restaurants and food service bringing the industry total in Connecticut to 165,100 jobs.

ASK ANDI

BY ANDI GRAY

Trade show payoff A trade show last week was a total disappointment.

More than the cost to register and have a booth, it cost time, travel expenses and there is no chance we’ll make our money back. How can I avoid making this mistake again?

THOUGHTS OF THE DAY: Smart marketers are always working to ensure a payoff many times greater than the expense incurred. Do your homework before signing up. Once committed, use every resource available to maximize impact. Compare payoffs annually to better plan the upcoming year’s commitments.

Whether you’re talking about trade shows, networking events, advertising, entertainment, promotions or anything else that gets exposure for your company, you have to make your money back, and then some. Do everything before, during and after the event to maximize the opportunity for a payoff.

When considering an event, ask to see the sign-up list. If it’s not available, ask for demographics on the previous year’s attendance: types of businesses, titles of attendees, geographic concentration, etc.

Compare that with your current base of clients and prospect list. Ask for references to people who have attended and exhibited. Grill them on why they went, how much business they realized, what concerns they had, whether they’ll be going again next year.

Ask about booth locations and layout.

Make sure you won’t be somewhere west of Timbuktu, or surrounded by competitors. Consider sharing a booth to reduce cost. If you’re not sure, consider sending an observer rather than committing to the cost of exhibiting.

Once committed, have a plan.

Schedule key appointments ahead of time. List competitors you want to investigate — know where their booths will be and decide who will visit each one.

Identify which after-hours events might be the most productive.

After the show, connect with more people. Often the people at the trade show are either end users, in-house experts, or

salespeople looking to make their own sales. They can tell you about the company but can’t sign off on a deal. Work with them to get their assistance and approval, but ultimately you have to be talking to the decision maker. Find out who that is and pry open that door.

Plan out follow-up materials and create a schedule so they go out promptly and without a hitch. Make a list of organizations to target. Try to send requested information while you’re still at the show.

Maximize impact by customizing content to the needs of different types of recipients.

For example, CFOs will want more financially oriented information while CMOs will want to know about how your product or service will increase their company’s reputation and reach.

Social media can extend the life of an event while it helps maximize exposure.

Take pictures to post, post interesting observations, give a shout-out to someone who impressed you, write a blog post about a topic discussed. See if you can connect with people you might have missed at the event.

Draw in folks who might not have gone, but who have shared interests.

Compliments usually work wonders.

Call someone you haven’t met. Say that you were at a trade show recently, were impressed by what you heard and saw about their company and want to learn more about them. Make an appointment to meet. If they’re a potential buyer, great. If not, ask for a referral to someone else who might be a buyer.

Make time to analyze results of all marketing efforts. Look at customers signed and where contacts were made.

Consider whether investing another year in a particular trade show or event will boost your company’s reach, or if you’re better off elsewhere. Keep increasing the marketing budget and footprint, as you shift around the mix.

New Hire and Current Employee Training Options The Westchester-Putnam Workforce Development Board (WPWDB) was established in 2000 specifically to help businesses of all sizes locate, train, and retrain employees to ensure their business is as competitive and successful as it can be. The first step to accessing this help is to create an employer account at www.westchesterputnamonestop.com. Once registered, businesses can use the website at no cost, as well as work with the Business Engagement Team to learn about subsidized training opportunities. The WPWDB understands that helping employers hire and train employees strengthens the local economy for everyone.

Option 1—On-the-Job Training (OJT) When new employees need on-the-job training, WPWDB can reimburse that company for up to 50% of the costs* which helps compensate employers for the additional supervision associated with training a new employee. The amount of reimbursement depends upon the skills and experience of the new hire. There is a $20,000 cap per company for OJT. Option 2—Customized Incumbent Worker Training (CIWT) When current staff is provided with workforce training, WPWDB can pay for half the costs associated with in-house or third-party training. Customized classroom training helps raise the skill sets of employees, often in partnership with a training provider or school. There is a $20,000 limit per company.

GOOD THINGS WESTCHESTER

RAZ JOINS NONPROFIT

SANTA VISITS

Top: Ossining High School wrestling team helps sort books and gifts with Alana Sweeny, third from left in front. Bottom, from left; Ossining Director of Human Resources Joan Garone and Alana Sweeny discuss book selections with Ossining mom and children.

GIFTS FOR READING Ossining school children found out that reading really does have its rewards when the United Way of Westchester and Putnam and Ossining public schools recently gave a gift to youngsters who pledged to read at least three books.

As part of its ongoing effort to get children reading at grade level by third grade, United Way organized a gift giveaway at the Park Street School in Ossining on Dec. 12 with the help of Ossining schools and the district’s high school wrestling team. Testing indicates that only 38 percent of children in Westchester and Putnam are reading at grade level by the end of the third grade.

Children who took home three books were allowed to choose a gift. The wrestlers helped organize the books by age level and worked to help children choose a book that matched their interests.

“More than 60 percent of low-income households do not have one children’s book in the home,’’ said Alana Sweeny, president and CEO of UWWP. “Through our United2Read initiative, we are working to give children the tools they need to thrive later in life as part of our larger mission to reduce poverty and promote self-sufficiency.”

United Way and the school district launched a bookmobile to deliver books to the community. United Way is holding a book drive through January. New and gently used books can be dropped off at United Way at 336 Central Park Avenue in White Plains.

Representatives of the Westchester Chapter of the New York State Building Officials Conference (NYSBOC) helped Santa check his list twice when they visited Cerebral Palsy of Westchester on Dec. 15.

The first time they checked, they found more than 70 gifts for the children that had been donated by conference members. The second time they found a check for $30,672 made out to Cerebral Palsy, which just happened to be from NYSBOC and represented proceeds from its golf outing this fall.

NYSBOC has about 150 members who are building officials who meet once a month to review code updates and code enforcements at 42 municipalities in Westchester County.

Members who were on hand for the visit included President Sal Pennelle, Vice President Peter Russo, Eddie Hess Jr., Frank Diodati and Mike Cromwell.

NY-P HUDSON VALLEY HOLDS GALA, REVIEWS 2017

$586K GRANT FOR RESEARCH

From left: Michael Delfino, chairman, NewYork-Presbyterian Hudson Valley Hospital Community and Foundation Board of Directors; Stacey Petrower; Karen Westervelt, senior vice president and chief operating officer, NY-P Regional Hospital Network; and George E. Pataki, former New York governor.

New York Medical College in Valhalla has been awarded $586,314 for research into heart and vascular disease. The funding was awarded through the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute.

“Advances in scientific research hold tremendous potential to help the millions of people struggling with heart and metabolic problems,” said U.S. Rep. Nita Lowey, who announced the grant. “This funding will support New York Medical College’s cutting-edge research and innovation that may save lives.”

“I am truly excited to embark on these studies,” said Dr. Michal Laniado Schwartzman, professor and chair of the college’s department of pharmacology. Schwartzman is involved in research that might lead to new treatments for such diseases as heart failure, stroke and diabetes.

NewYork-Presbyterian Hudson Valley Hospital’s 57th annual Fall Gala raised nearly $300,000.

More than 350 supporters attended the event held at the Tarrytown House Estate on the Hudson. Guests included state Sen. Terrence Murphy, Peekskill Mayor Frank Catalina, hospital senior leadership, physicians, nurses and other employees, and board members of the hospital and its foundation and auxiliary.

“In 2017, we increased our medical staff, celebrated the excellence of our Magnet nurses, and enhanced the services we provide to our community,” said Stacey Petrower, president, NewYork-Presbyterian Hudson Valley Hospital. “These funds will directly impact the hospital’s future growth by further expanding programs and resources for patients and residents throughout the region.”

The Westchester Children’s Association has appointed Rebekah Raz as its new director of development. She has more than 17 years of experience in the nonprofit sector, working in fundraising, community building and relations and leadership development. Most recently, she was the vice president at the United Jewish Federation of Stamford, New Canaan and Darien.

The Westchester Children’s Association was established in 1914 and is based in White Plains.

CORDOVA JOINS FOCUS MEDIA

Christine Cordova has joined Focus Media, a public relations and marketing firm serving the Hudson Valley from Goshen, as a public relations manager.

Josh Sommers, the company’s president and CEO, said, “Her established relationships with New York City media are a huge asset to the agency and its clients as we continue to grow.”

Before joining Focus Media, Cordova was the public relations and social media manager at Delta Children Enterprise in Manhattan. Prior to that, Cordova was a social editor at XO Group.

SUPREME HONOR Two founding partners of a law firm with offices in White Plains and Manhattan have been admitted to the Bar of the Supreme Court of the United States. Lisa Zeiderman and Faith Miller of the firm Miller Zeiderman & Wiederkehr LLP were among a group of 32 attorneys from across the country who will now join others allowed to practice before the highest court in the land.

Miller is a founding member of the American Academy for Certified Financial Litigators. She is also treasurer of the Westchester Chapter of the Justice Brandeis Law Society and was a founding member of the Westchester County Law Guardian Association.

Zeiderman serves on the Legislation Committee of the New York State Bar, Family Law Section, is on the executive board of the Justice Brandeis Law Society and is a member of the New York Women’s Bar Association.

Twenty-five members of another association, the Women’s Bar Association of the State of New York were admitted to the Supreme Court in a subsequent ceremony.

Among them was Montgomery attorney Kelly Pressler of the law firm Jacobowitz and Gubits LLP. Pressler is vice president of WBASNY. Seven of the nine Supreme Court Justices presided over that admission ceremony and Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg visited with the attorneys afterward.

Santa with Roo and Rags.

Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner, Blitzen and maybe even Rudolph might have been jealous had they seen what Santa was doing at The Westchester mall in White Plains on Dec. 14. In the mall, where the holiday shoppers could see him but his reindeer couldn’t, Santa was posing for pictures with some adorable visitors from the Humane Society of Westchester.

The Westchester normally invites folks to bring in their pets to have a photo taken with Santa, but the animals from HSW were there for a special reason: to help promote the fact that, in addition to themselves, there are numerous other dogs and cats just waiting at the shelter in New Rochelle to be adopted. The event did result in people visiting the shelter to adopt.

HSW was founded in 1911 as the New Rochelle Humane Society. It’s a nonprofit dedicated to the compassionate care and treatment of animals throughout the 19 Westchester communities it serves and beyond.

White Plains-based Visiting Nurse Services in Westchester Inc. (VNSW) has been awarded a $25,000 grant from Aging in America Inc. to support the integration of a sepsis screening, education and intervention tool into its clinical practice. The funding will enable the nonprofit agency’s home care workforce to screen more than 10,000 patients in their homes annually as part of its best practices in patient care.

The VNSW Foundation Inc. provided a matching grant of $25,000 to underwrite staff training in identifying and managing sepsis in the home and in utilizing the screening tool for optimal patient outcomes.

Sepsis is the body’s extreme response to an infection. It happens when an infection you already have triggers a reaction throughout your body. Instead of just attacking the infection, your body attacks its own organs. Infections that most frequently develop into sepsis include staphylococcus, E coli and some types of streptococcus.

The Centers for Disease Control reports that there are about 1.5 million cases of sepsis in the U.S. each year with 250,000 ending in death. About one-third of the deaths occur in hospitals.

VNSW President and CEO Tim Leddy said, “With the majority of our patients at high risk for developing sepsis, this is a pivotal moment for our agency to step in with early intervention tools to stem the tide of this serious condition at the point of care at home.”

GOOD THINGS FAIRFIELD

GORDON JOINS CHILD GUIDANCE BOARD

DENTIST DONATES X-RAY UNIT TO UNIVERSITY Fairfield dentist Dennis Ragoza has donated a specialized X-ray machine to the University of Bridgeport’s Fones School of Dental Hygiene. It will be used by university faculty and student clinicians as they provide free dental care for Bridgeport children at the Jettie S. Tisdale Middle School. Since 2007, more than 350 students per year have received the dental care.

State Sen. Tony Hwang was among those on hand for the presentation at the middle school.

The panoramic X-ray machine rotates around a patient’s head, taking a single continuous image of the teeth and the jaw as opposed to separate images of various teeth. It is worth about $23,000.

“We are so excited about this, and we can’t thank Dr. Ragoza enough,” said Marcia Lorentzen, dean of the Fones School.

American students miss more than 750,000 school days annually due to dental-related illnesses, according to the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry. Dental decay affects 59 percent of youngsters between the ages of 5 and 17.

Ragoza said he wanted to donate an X-ray machine to the Fones School because it provides “a much-needed service in areas where receiving routine dental care may be a challenge.”

The Fones School of Dental Hygiene was founded in 1913 by Bridgeport dentist Alfred C. Fones, who is credited with coining the term “dental hygiene.” Through various programs, Fones treats up to 10,000 patients annually throughout Connecticut.

WILLIAMS IS STAMFORD’S CITIZEN OF THE YEAR Stamford and the Jewish War Veterans Fred Robbins Post 142 recently announced their selection of Dudley N. Williams Jr. as the 2017 City of Stamford Citizen of the Year.

A selection committee looks for a person who has demonstrated a belief in interfaith harmony, possesses the highest standards of responsibility in civic life, has helped in the promotion of projects for the public welfare and has personally worked with distinction to benefit Stamford on a communitywide basis.

Stamford’s Mayor David Martin said, “Dudley’s active citizenship and belief in sustainable success through community partnerships has benefitted our city. His commitment to helping those who are disadvantaged and underserved is unmatched, particularly in education.”

About 25 years ago, as the parent of a child in the Stamford school system, he was elected to the Stamford school board, serving three terms, including two as board president.

Williams served on the Stamford Planning Board and most recently, in 2015, he was elected to the Stamford Board of Finance.

Presently, Williams is president and CEO of the Mill River Collaborative and served as interim CEO for the Stamford YMCA. He retired from GE Asset Management as senior vice president of citizenship and diversity.

“To say I’m honored is an understatement of enormous proportions,” said Williams.

Jill Gordon

New Canaan resident Jill Gordon has joined the board of the Child Guidance Center of Southern Connecticut, which is based in Stamford. The nonprofit provides mental health services to children, adolescents and their families. Gordon has been active with the center since 2014.

Gordon said, “With an increasing number of families in Fairfield County approaching CGC for assistance during a mental health crisis, its work has never been more important.”

President and CEO Eliot Brenner said, “We’re really looking forward to harnessing her expertise in branding, communications and donor cultivation to raise awareness of our work and ultimately help more kids in need.”

HEAD COUNT AT MOHEGAN SUN ARENA Mohegan Sun Arena reported that it attracted 11 million people to entertainment events it staged during 2017. The venue also won two awards during 2017, Prime Site and Casino of the Year.

This brings to 15 the number of national awards it has won during the past nine years.

“I am blessed to have so many talented people who help put our entertainment brand on the world stage — they are the reason we have a world-class venue sitting right in our backyard,” said Tom Cantone, senior vice president of sports and entertainment.

Among the artists and bands appearing in 2017 at the arena were Lady Gaga, Ed Sheeran, Bon Jovi, Neil Diamond, Depeche Mode, Journey, Pentatonix, Backstreet Boys and Ariana Grande.

GIZZI ON TBICO BOARD

Youngsters from the Boys & Girls Club of Stamford at NBC’s Stamford Media Center.

WISHING FOR TOYS Part of NBCUniversal’s Stamford Media Center became a giant toy box for youngsters from the Boys & Girls Club of Stamford on Dec. 14. Fifty employees at the media center had volunteered to receive a personalized “wish card” from a child at the club that specified which toys he or she would like to receive for the holidays. All of the children who filled out wish cards were participants in the club’s after-school programming.

More than 150 toys were distributed in response to the wish cards. In addition, NBCUniversal bought extra toys to be donated to other children at the club.

“Our team at the Stamford Media Center constantly looks for new ways to give back to the Stamford community,” said Vinnie Fusco, vice president and general manager of production. “The Boys & Girls Club is a tremendous community partner and we are thrilled to host this toy drive for them for the fourth year in a row.”

Kristen Gizzi has been elected to the board of directors of TBICO, a Danbury nonprofit whose mission is to help people help themselves through education, job training and financial literacy.

Louann Bloomer, TBICO’s founder, CEO and president said, “Her experience both professional and nonprofit will be invaluable in helping guide TBICO into the next 25 years.”

The Greenwich Chamber of Commerce announced its Holiday Awards Decorating Contest winners at its annual holiday party, which was recently held at Clement Galleries.

“Sixth grade design brands the Cupcake Queens and Banana Splits from Space planned a bake sale that was a huge hit,” said Phil Lohmeyer, Whitby’s design teacher and student activities coordinator for the Upper School.

Neighbor to Neighbor helps provide residents in need throughout the area with access to food, clothing, and basic living essentials.

COMFORCARE COMES TO FAIRFIELD Town of Fairfield First Selectman Mike Tetreau and Beverly Balaz, president of the Fairfield Chamber of Commerce were among those on hand to help Neil Anand inaugurate his business, a ComForCare franchise at 1700 Post Road.

A Fairfield native, Anand has a background in health care and marketing. He volunteered with a local organization providing transportation to seniors.
