DOUGLAS ELLIMAN SEES SIGNS OF IMPROVING HOUSING MARKET

NEW ROCHELLE MAYOR BRAMSON DESCRIBES HOW HE FELT WHEN HE HEARD ABOUT THE CON ED GAS MORATORIUM

pkatz@westfairinc.com “WE’VE SEEN A VERY GOOD quarter and we’re seeing some very optimistic numbers,” Scott Elwell, senior executive regional manager of Westchester and New England for Douglas Elliman Real Estate, told the Business Journal. Elwell was discussing the firm’s report on housing sales activity in Westchester, Putnam and Dutchess counties during the first quarter of 2019. In Westchester, compared with the same period last year, the median sales price rose 6.4% to $463,000, the number of sales increased 9.2% to 1,845 and the time a property was on the market declined 4.3% to 89 days, according to the report. The report also stated the number of single-family home sales in Westchester

“I

thought I was gonna have a heart attack. It really came out of nowhere,” New Rochelle Mayor Noam Bramson said about the phone call he got from an official of Con Edison informing him that the utility was imposing a mora-

torium on new natural gas hookups. Bramson, along with White Plains Mayor Tom Roach and Wilson Kimball, director of planning and development in Yonkers, appeared at the April 11 monthly luncheon meeting of the Building Owners & Management Association of Westchester County, Inc. The event took place at 360 Hamilton Ave. in White Plains.

Kevin Plunkett, director of strategic initiatives for Simone Development Companies, served as moderator of the panel discussion and began by pointing out that the elephant in the room was the Con Ed natural gas moratorium. The utility said that it could no longer ensure an adequate supply of gas at peak times for future customers and, as of March 15, would no longer be accepting applications for new natural gas connections in most of its Westchester service area. New applications for interruptible service and natural gas-fueled emergency generators continue to be accepted. Interruptible service involves installing equip» MORATORIUM

rose 6.8% to 989. That put an end to six straight quarters of year-over-year declines. The median sales price, however, slipped 1.2% to $600,000. The condo market showed an 11.7% sales increase to 258 units sold with an increase in the median sales price to $360,000. Co-ops saw a 9.8% increase in sales to 447 with a median sales price increase of 6.9% to $170,000. There was an uptick in multifamily sales where the number jumped 19.8% to 151 with a median sales price increase of 13.7% to $535,000. “There has been a strong demand in the area and many of those buyers are buyers that are living in one of the units and renting out the others,” Elwell said. He characterized the heightened interest in condos and co-ops as “a flight to convenience.” The report identifies a soft spot at the luxury end » HOUSING

Star power YANKEES LEGEND MARIANO RIVERA ATTENDS OPENING OF SPORTS PERFORMANCE INSTITUTE BY PETER KATZ pkatz@westfairinc.com

ew York-Presbyterian, in collaboration with physicians from Columbia University Irving Medical Center, has opened a sports medicine and performance training facility in the Vernon Place Shops center near the ScarsdaleEastchester line. The 9,600-square-foot facility at 693 White Plains Road offers advanced sports medicine, performance training and comprehensive orthopedic care using state-of-the-art equipment and techniques. Sports training services are offered through the company EXOS, which provides training to the military, athletes and corporations among others. Attending the opening event and ribbon cutting on April 9 was former New York Yankees star pitcher Mariano Rivera. He told the Business Journal that sports medicine is important for young athletes as well as professionals. “To have a place like this in Westchester County, having something like this is special,” he said. Rivera said the facility compares very favorably with facilities he’s seen and had to use during his professional baseball career.

“We have to do whatever it takes to take care of ourselves. That means eating, that means whatever we put in our body matters and we have to be conscious of that and consider that we don’t get any younger. So as days, years, pass by we have to make sure we do the right thing to take care of our body and having a place like this in our community is something special.” William Levine, chief of orthopedics at New York-Presbyterian/ Columbia University Irving Medical Center, told the Business Journal that the significance of opening a facility in a retail environment “is the concept of taking doctors’

offices, physical therapy and sports performance and putting it in one place.” He said it is New YorkPresbyterian’s belief that its Sports Performance Institute will be the “go-to” location in the New York region to see orthopedic and sports medicine physicians, receive physical therapy and work on improving sports performance. The cost of space was a consideration in determining where to locate the facility, Levine said. “The reality is that real estate is pretty expensive in Manhattan, so why not come to Westchester County where we’re already at Lawrence Hospital doing incredible things in

orthopedics and in nonoperative sports medicine, so it seemed like a perfect fit.” Christopher Ahmad, chief of sports medicine at NY-P/Columbia University Irving Medical Center and head team physician for the New York Yankees and Major League Soccer’s New York City Football Club, said, “This will be the first time athletes in the Westchester region will be able to access the services of an academic sports medicine department alongside the training, conditioning, and performance services that are typically only available to professional athletes.” He said high school and college athletes will have access to services at the institute that could help prevent injuries. The institute features facilities for medical examination and surgical consultation, diagnostic X-ray and ultrasound, treatment rooms for injections, biologic therapies, casting, orthotics and brace fitting. The array of sports performance training equipment ranges from anti-gravity treadmills to weight-training sets. “People are living longer and in a much more active fashion,” Levine said. “We want to provide care for people participating in sports activities whether they’re 8 or 80.”

Tarrytown digital currency venture declares bankruptcy BY BILL HELTZEL bheltzel@westfairinc.com

digital currency company based in Tarrytown has filed for bankruptcy protection. Hampstead Global LLC, whose sole asset is Coins.com, filed a Chapter 11 petition March 30 in federal bankruptcy court in White Plains. Owner Adam Perzow attributed the financial problems to unwillingness by the largest creditor to renegotiate payment terms or settle legal claims, and to a significant decline in the value of digital currencies. Perzow acquired the Coins. com domain last year from Stack’s Bowers Numismatics, a rare coins auctioneer in Santa Ana, California. The bankruptcy

petition lists a $1.3 million loan from Stack’s Bowers as the largest unsecured claim, but characterizes it as disputed. Perzow said in an interview published on the Inside Interview blog that he buys domain names and builds them into broader mainstream brands. His strate�y for Coins.com was to create a platform for digital currencies — such as online gaming coins — for the mass market, and cryptocurrencies — such as Bitcoin — for a niche market. Hampstead declared $448,000 in liabilities, including the disputed Stack’s claim. It estimated the value of the domain at $3 million to $5 million, and states it has legal claims against Stack’s Bowers worth $500,000 to $1.5 million. Coins.com is being held in

escrow, according to the petition, and the site is static. Hampstead is using independent contractors to develop a currency and digital platform, the petition states. It has no employees, equipment or buildings, but it has a headquarters in Tarrytown, a mailing address in Scarsdale and uses an office in Santa Monica, California. Hampstead has not previously filed for bankruptcy, the petition states, but another company controlled by Perzow has done so. Heath Global Inc. filed for Chapter 11 reorganization in 2012 in Manhattan, declaring $4 million in assets and more than $2 million in liabilities. Perzow had bought the Invest. com domain from Jim Magner of Kilkenny, Ireland, for $2 million

and still owed most of the sale price. In 2014, under bankruptcy court supervision, they worked out a settlement in which Heath would pay Magner $2.5 million for the domain. Perzow persuaded Israeli venture capitalist Moshe Hogeg to invest in the site. Perzow claims that the deal had two parts: Hogeg would finance the $2.5 million payment to Magner and then both men would build out the site and run it as a joint venture. But after Hogeg gained control of the domain, Perzow claims in a lawsuit filed last year in Los Angeles Superior Court that Hogeg implemented Perzow’s ideas but cut Perzow out of the business. “Perzow’s dreams for Invest. com,” the complaint states, “had become a nightmare.”

A MEMBER OF

Yonkers considering eight-story self-storage building Gioffre said, “The premises will be staffed by four employees, three part time and one full time and there will be approximately two or three employees on-site each day. Access to the facility will be restricted to authorized persons only. The facility will use an app-based, Bluetooth, keyless entry system which will permit customers to enter the building and access their units using their mobile devices. Alternatively, customers will be able to access the building using a key fob.” Gioffre said the project should not be affected by the Con Ed moratorium on new gas hookups since they applied for service before the moratorium went into effect on March 15. The applicant plans to work with city officials to resolve any remaining questions. Planning Board approval could come at their meeting scheduled for May 8.

orking its way through the review process in Yonkers is an application by Safeguard Self Storage for an eight-story self-storage facility containing approximately 180,000 square feet to be built at 390 Riverdale Avenue. The site is in the BA general business and apartment—high density zone. The applicant made a presentation to the Yonkers Planning Board during its April 10 meeting. Stan Bonilla, senior vice president for development at Safeguard Self Storage, told the Planning Board that the company’s facility in Yonkers at 188 S. Broadway is “currently very full, operating at 97% occupancy on average, which means we have no units to rent to anybody.” Safeguard operates in six states, according to its website. It opened its first facility in New Orleans in 1989 and offers more than 3.5 million square feet of storage space. In 2006, it relocated its corporate offices from New Orleans to Atlanta in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. “We do have 80 properties we currently own, 74 open facilities and the other properties are under construction, this one being in the pipeline,” Bonilla said. He said the supply of self-storage space in the Yonkers market is low. “Our goal is to build not the most properties, but the best properties and we feel that this property does address that.” The proposed facility will include approximately 3,600 square feet of retail space fronting on Riverdale Avenue. Attorney Anthony B. Gioffre III of the White Plains-based law firm Cuddy & Feder explained that the facility will not offer outdoor storage for items such as boats or vehicles and would prohibit storage of flammable liquids, highly combustible items and radioactive or other hazardous materials. “The premises will be staffed and open to the general public from approximately 8 in the morning ’til 6 in the evening. Some limited customers will have 24-hour access to their storage units, but that will not be for the general public,” Gioffre said. Gioffre told the Planning Board that Safeguard is under contract to acquire the premises and its self-storage facility is intended to principally serve the needs of Yonkers residents. The project would have 43 parking spaces, meeting city requirements. Planning Board members appeared to like most aspects of the proposal, but there was a suggestion that the yellow building exterior, which is in keeping with the visual branding of the company, be toned down. The size of proposed exterior signage also was questioned.

A preliminary draft rendering as discussed with Yonkers. The colors will be toned down in the final version.

IN COURT Two used car buyers claim dealers violated Truth in Lending Act BY BILL HELTZEL bheltzel@westfairinc.com

uto dealers in New Rochelle and White Plains have been accused of pressuring two used car customers to approve revised sales contracts that set drastically different financing terms. Steven Bryan of the Bronx sued New Rochelle Hyundai and Jonisha Wimbush of Mount Vernon sued Chrysler Jeep of White Plains in federal court, citing the Truth in Lending Act. The federal law is designed to protect customers who finance transactions by requiring clear and conspicuous disclosure of the terms and costs of deals. Bryan said he visited the Hyundai dealership on Jan. 18 and agreed to buy a 2016 Hyundai Sante Fe. He made a $1,500 down payment, got the registration, license plates and keys and drove away. A month later, he claims, he was told to return and sign a new contract. He alleges that he was told that if he didn’t, the vehicle would be reported as stolen. Bryan said he believed he had no choice. The new sales contract increased the

costs of the deal, including the annual percentage rate from 19.99 to 22.57, the finance charge from $15,213 to $15,546, the monthly payments from $464.43 to $469.81 and the number of payments from 72 to 75. The changes added $1,006 for a total of $36,332. A man who identified himself as Michael, from the dealer’s parent company, Leader in Cars Auto Group in Hempstead, declined to comment on the record about the allegations. “There is no story,” he said. Wimbush tells a similar story. She visited Chrysler Jeep of White Plains on Dec. 5 and made a $500 down payment on a 2015 Jeep Wrangler. She was given the registration and license plates, the complaint states, “and was led to believe that the transaction was finished.” But when she returned a few weeks later to refer a friend, she claims, she was told she had to make an additional down payment to keep the Jeep. A new sales agreement increased the annual percentage rate from 14.8 to 20.5, the finance charge from $16,684 to $21,594 and the monthly payments from $582.01 to $699.54. The changes added $2,869 for a total price of $52,474.

The dealer’s CEO, Agostino DiFeo, said he was not at liberty to discuss the specifics, but he acknowledges the complaint, categorically denies the accusations and stands on his 20-year history in White Plains, “which speaks for itself.” The lawsuits accuse the dealers of violations of the federal Truth in Lending Act, deceptive practices under state law and fraud. They demand cancellation of the deals, return of all finance charges and interest and

damages equal to twice the amounts of the finance charges. Both buyers are represented by David M. Kasell, a Long Island City attorney who touts himself as the “Queens Lemon Law Lawyer.” Kasell has filed at least 37 lawsuits against car companies since 2007 in the federal courts that cover New York City and the suburbs. “Roughly 85 percent of his cases,” he claims, “settle.”

Michael D’Alessio’s $58M fraud takes its toll on many of his 278 victims BY BILL HELTZEL bheltzel@westfairinc.com

he sentencing this month of Michael D’Alessio to six years in federal prison may do little to relieve the damages that hundreds of investors suffered, the betrayal that friends have experienced and the shame that his family endures from the $58 million real estate fraud. Hundreds of letters were submitted to the court by some of the 278 victims demanding a harsh penalty for the financial and personal devastation he caused, and in many cases by friends asking for leniency for a man they described as essentially decent, but flawed. “Michael has robbed us financially and emotionally. Things we may never get back,” wrote investor Michael Kohn, who once counted D’Alessio as a friend. For more than two decades, D’Alessio was a successful real estate developer in White Plains, building the company with his own profits. By 2012, he claimed a net worth of $30 million. That year, he launched an ambitious strate�y of developing several projects at the same time in Westchester, Manhattan, the

Hamptons and the Bronx. For the first time, he sought financing from private investors. But he commingled funds, according to court records, and squandered millions of dollars on casino gambling and on a lavish lifestyle. In 2017, he stopped paying back his investors. D’Alessio blamed the demise of his real estate ventures on a declining market for luxury condos and on a gambling disorder. Federal prosecutors argued he was moti-

vated by “simple greed.” D’Alessio pleaded guilty to wire fraud and concealing assets from the bankruptcy court. The victims of his Ponzi-like scheme fall into three categories, prosecutors stated in a sentencing memorandum: young professionals investing their nest eggs; retirees trying to achieve greater financial security; and real estate professionals. Carol Merkel, a 68-year-old widow, lost $500,000 while looking to assure a comfortable retirement. “Mr. D’Alessio took that security away from me,” she said in a letter to the judge. She also persuaded two other elderly people to invest with D’Alessio, including a woman who invested for her 93-year-old mother. “These people believed in me,” she wrote. “I in turn caused other seniors to lose their money. My good name was tarnished.” Adam Field invested a substantial part of his life savings and his daughter’s college fund, based on D’Alessio’s personal guarantee and assurances that the investments were safe. “I’m not a sophisticated NY real estate investor,” he wrote, “but a single dad struggling to now figure out how to fund the college education my daughter hopes to continue.”

“He assured me that the money would be safe,” Kohn said. “Quickly, Michael became a close friend. Unbeknownst to me at the time, Michael was simply being kind in order to get me involved in additional investments.” D’Alessio’s fraud, according to the sentencing memo by his attorneys, is a rare case where even investors who lost money see him as a good man. Michael Finamore, who lost $1 million, wrote that D’Alessio was just a small-time businessman whose business grew too quickly and spiraled out of control because of market conditions. Numerous letters were written by gambling addicts who attested to D’Alessio’s contrition and efforts to rehabilitate himself in Gamblers Anonymous. D’Alessio, according to a psychological report, struggles with guilt and shame over the havoc he has wreaked on his family. He claims he invested $11 million of his own money, $750,000 from his parents and $320,000 from three children. A letter by one of his daughters describes the extensive personal care D’Alessio gives another daughter, age 12, who is severely disabled.

Judge awards $1.2M to Crestwood Technology in trade secrets case BY BILL HELTZEL bheltzel@westfairinc.com

federal judge has ordered Patrick K. Dunn, a former sales executive at Crestwood Technolo�y Group, to pay the Yonkers military contractor more than $1.2 million for stealing trade secrets. U.S. District Judge Kenneth M. Karas also ordered Dunn on April 2 to return all company documents, emails and equipment and to refrain from contacting Crestwood Technolo�y Group clients for a year. Dunn had voluntarily defaulted in the case, but still denies wrongdoing. “Crestwood weaponized the court system,” Dunn stated April 1 in a related lawsuit, destroying his career and ruining his life. He claims that his former employer drove him into bankruptcy on false charges and that his strate�y of defending himself without a lawyer led to “disastrous results.” Dunn worked for Crestwood Technolo�y as a full-time consultant beginning in 2013 and as an employee from 2016 to September 2017 when he was fired. As executive vice president of development, he was paid $300,000 a year to cultivate the company’s top customers. Crestwood Technolo�y sells electronic components to the military and to the aerospace, defense and commercial aviation industries. The company sued Dunn in federal court in White Plains in 2017. Crestwood Technolo�y alleged that he had forwarded many confidential emails containing client information to his private email account, switched his company cellphone number to a personal account, given confidential information to a direct competitor owned by his son and then suddenly moved to Towson, Maryland. Dunn also was suspended for three months in 2017, Crestwood noted, pending a debarment action by the U.S. Navy concerning something that had happened, but not explained in the complaint, before Dunn joined the company. Dunn responded in court filings that he had downloaded company documents in preparation for a performance review. He had deleted all of the forwarded emails within 72 hours under the direction of the company’s legal counsel. The phone number he switched had been his personal number for 17 years, the company phone was broken and he returned it. He claims he had notified CEO Joe Mancino that he was moving to Maryland. His son’s company is a Crestwood Technolo�y supplier, he stated in his response, not a competitor. The Navy investigation concerned an alleged shipment of subpar parts in 2008 and he was “completely vindicated.” He never violated his agreements with Crestwood, Dunn said, never stole anything and never influenced any customers to leave Crestwood. “The entire complaint is based on speculation and paranoia,” he said in his response. Dunn has been unemployed ever since he was fired, according to a court filing, because no one would hire him because of

the federal lawsuit. Last spring, he filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy liquidation in Baltimore. He declared $324,436 in assets, including a $282,000 house exempt from creditors, leaving about $42,000, and $232,865 in liabilities. He had sold most of his jewelry, including Cartier, Breitling and Rolex watches, a record collection and a piano. His car was repossessed and he was receiving public assistance for treatment by a cardiologist and psychiatrist. The bankruptcy judge discharged his debts in August, preventing creditors, in most

instances, from trying to collect from him. In defending himself in the federal lawsuit in White Plains, Dunn has repeatedly run afoul of court procedures. In October, according to a letter to the judge by Crestwood’s attorney, Dunn had asked for a default judgment. Dunn said he had “no other options and no resources,” according to a bankruptcy filing. He requested the default “just to have it over.” Then Crestwood filed an adversarial action in bankruptcy court in Baltimore, challenging the court’s discharge of debts. The complaint reiterates the accusations in the federal lawsuit,

cites the default and argues that Dunn’s debts should not be forgiven because he had committed larceny and embezzlement. “Where are all the nefarious acts they claim?” Dunn stated in his response. “Where’s the fraud, theft, larceny and embezzlement?” He asked the bankruptcy court to dismiss Crestwood’s complaint. Then, still acting as his own attorney, he apologized for his “naivety towards protocol.” “I have never been involved in anything like this before,” he stated, “and I basically have no idea what I am doing.”

ment that can be switched to burn another fuel, such as oil, as a gas replacement. “My first feeling was, ‘my goodness, we’ve worked so hard over a period of years to finally put ourselves in a position where we could attract meaningful investment to our downtown with all the benefits that flow from that. Is this one thing that (will) sink the ship and sort of put a hard stop on everything that we’ve accomplished, everything that we’ve anticipated,’ ” Bramson said. It’s not that Bramson is a fan of burning fossil fuels. “The concern was really more the abrupt nature of the transition, and the fact that it came without warning on this sort of very limited window of opportunity to reposition developments that it might be just a practical impossibility for developers to accommodate themselves to the shift.” Since the moratorium has been in effect, rather than pulling the plug, developers whose projects already have momentum seem to be adapting to what Con Ed has done. As the Business Journal reported in the April 15

of the single-family market. “People are driven toward smaller houses and new homes close to town. There continues to be strong interest in living close to town and new homes that you can just walk right in, and that has gone up through the luxury market,” Elwell said. The median sales price in the luxury market, identified as the upper 10% of all single-family sales, experienced a decrease of 8.7% to $1,780,000. Elwell said buyers are looking in a wider geographic area. “We’ve seen buyers that have been very committed to just Westchester move up north, Putnam to Dutchess, or east or northeast to Fairfield County. And, we’re doing the best

issue, Huguenot Partners LLC has decided to spend an additional $1 million to install dual-fuel equipment in its project to be built at 327-339 Huguenot St. in New Rochelle. “At least for now, there is not a single project that has pulled out of New Rochelle as a consequence of the gas moratorium,” Bramson said. “We’re not out of the woods yet. There are plenty of projects that still have to get into the ground, that are still looking for financing.” Bramson said this now appears to be a surmountable obstacle rather than an absolute block. Kimball said the impact in Yonkers is unknown. “We were incensed not only by the immediate abrupt nature of it, but also the geographic limitations. Bedford is fine but Yonkers doesn’t get gas. Like really?” She expressed concern that the Chicken Island development in the heart of the city could be at risk. In the deal, the city would sell the sixacre Chicken Island parking lot to AMS Acquisition for $16 million so a mixeduse project, which would include a luxury hotel, could be built. “The only thing we know for sure is that Chicken Island is at risk. We don’t know how

job we can at educating our agents to help them for larger territories.” In Putnam and Dutchess, median sales prices rose for the eighth consecutive quarter. The Putnam median sales price rose 4% to $325,000 and the number of days on the market dropped by 7% to 93. In Dutchess, the median sales price reached $273,500, an increase of 1.5%. There was a 13.9% drop in the average time properties remained on the market to 93 days. If there was an issue in Dutchess it was the 21.3% increase in the listing inventory to 632 properties, compared with a listing inventory decrease of 4.2% to 469 properties in Putnam. Westchester’s listing inventory was slightly changed with a 0.4% increase to 3,596.

much of a risk it is. We’ll have a better sense as that sort of unfolds, but that’s a big deal for the city. There’s probably no municipality in America that wouldn’t like to get $16 million with no strings attached,” she said. Roach saw the moratorium as an opportunity to accelerate the movement toward renewables. “That’s where we’re all going to be

in less than a decade. It’s going to be moving that way anyway,” he said. Roach disclosed that in White Plains they’re working to see whether they can put together a map which will tell developers where the good sites are likely to be for installing geothermal heat pumps. He challenged the notion that the instant answer is to build a new

natural gas pipeline to feed Con Ed. “Have you any idea how long it would take to get the pipeline approved? A pipeline going through the New York region into Westchester, it’s not gonna happen,” he said. “We’ve got to play the hand we have in front of us and I think we’re in good shape to do it.” The panelists did not see an extraordinary amount of

opportunity in the federal government’s Opportunity Zone effort as established in the tax code by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act on Dec. 22, 2017. The zones are established in economically distressed communities and investors putting money into projects in the zones may, under certain conditions, be eligible for tax benefits. Kimball said it might help in Yonkers in a limited way. Bramson said it has made a couple of sites in the western portion of New Rochelle’s downtown more attractive than they would have been otherwise. Roach said he thought hedge funds stood to benefit most. All three agreed that the efforts by their cities to promote affordable housing would continue. Roach said he would like to see the basic requirement in White Plains raised to 12% affordable units in new residential developments. He said, “The number of people that want to live in White Plains and Yonkers and New Rochelle is growing dramatically as people are recognizing the value of being able to walk to whatever they’re doing, to have that mass transit access into New York City. I feel like all three of us have already done a lot and there’s more coming.”

Holtec International to buy Indian Point post-shutdown for decommissioning BY BOB ROZYCKI bobr@westfairinc.com

oltec International, a privately held ener�y technolo�y company in Camden, New Jersey, has agreed to buy Indian Point units 1, 2 and 3 for decommissioning from Enter�y Corp. The sale, which will take effect after Unit 3 has been shut down in 2021 and permanently defueled, includes the transfer of the licenses, spent fuel, decommissioning liabilities and Nuclear Decommissioning Trusts (NDT) for the three units. Enter�y spokesman Jerry Nappi said, “We are not disclosing the purchase price as it is business-sensitive info at this time.” In a press release the company stated, “As consideration for its transfer to Holtec of its interest in Indian Point Ener�y Center, Enter�y will receive nominal cash consideration.” The transaction is expected to result in a “noncash loss based on the difference between Enter�y’s adjusted net investment in the subsidiaries at closing and the sale price net of any agreed adjustments.” The terms of the transaction include “limitations on withdrawals from the

★

NDTs to fund decommissioning activities and controls on how Enter�y manages the investment of NDT assets between signing and closing.” The company added that the agreement does not require a minimum level of funding in the NDTs as a condition to closing. “The sale of Indian Point to Holtec is expected to result in the completion of decommissioning decades sooner than if the site were to remain under Enter�y’s ownership,” said Enter�y Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Leo Denault. Dismantling of Indian Point would be handled by Comprehensive Decommissioning International LLC, a jointly owned company of Holtec International and SNC-Lavalin. The company said a specific timetable for dismantling will be developed in connection with Holtec’s preparation of its Post-Shutdown Decommissioning Activities Report (PSDAR) and Site-Specific Decommissioning Cost Estimate. Holtec will submit those reports to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission in the fourth quarter of this year. “Holtec will hire Enter�y’s employees at Indian Point who are employed at the site at the time of the transaction and identified by Enter�y as an employee whose services are

required for that phase of decommissioning,” said Kris Singh, president and CEO of Holtec International. “Headcount at Indian Point will not be reduced until after Unit 3 is shut down,” Nappi said. There are nearly 1,000 Enter�y employees at Indian Point. “It is premature to say with certainty to what degree headcount will be reduced after

Unit 3 shuts down, but at previously closed nuclear power plants employee headcount is generally reduced by about 50% or more post-shutdown,” Nappi said. Indian Point Unit 2 and Unit 3 are scheduled to shut down by April 30, 2020, and April 30, 2021, as part of an agreement with New York state. Indian Point Unit 1 was shut down in 1974.

Business in spotlight during State of the County address BY PETER KATZ pkatz@westfairinc.com

estchester County Executive George Latimer put the county’s relationship with businesses large and small in the spotlight during his State of the County Address on April 11. Latimer spoke in the Legislature’s chamber in the county’s Michaelian Office Building in White Plains. “We need to attract businesses and keep businesses here in Westchester County to keep our economy thriving. When our businesses thrive, our county thrives, and we want to partner with those businesses, large and small, to meet their employment and technolo�y needs,” Latimer said.

Latimer touted the recent action by the Westchester County Industrial Development Agency which granted preliminary approvals for tax incentives for three major projects in downtown White Plains whose construction costs are estimated to total $1.2 billion. He also pointed out that he signed into law the Certified Service-Disabled Veteran Owned Businesses in County Contracts measure, which is designed to ensure veteran-owned businesses are considered for future county contracts by all county departments. Latimer reminded the audience that in January he signed the 99-year land lease allowing development of the North 60 project by Fareri Associates to move ahead and that the business incubator Element 46 recently was launched by the county’s Office of Economic Development.

HFF arranges $400.6M acquisition ﬁnancing for 56-building portfolio in Westchester, Fairﬁeld BY KEVIN ZIMMERMAN kzimmerman@westfairinc.com

olliday Fenoglio Fowler has arranged $400.6 million in acquisition financing for a 56-building light industrial portfolio totaling approximately 3.1 million square feet in Westchester and Fairfield counties. The portfolio consists of Cross Westchester Executive Park in Elmsford, Mid-Westchester Executive Park in Hawthorne, South Westchester Executive Park in Yonkers and Stamford Executive Park in Connecticut. According to an HFF statement, the portfolio has maintained consistent occupancy of over 90 percent for the past 20 years. HFF worked on behalf of the borrower, a joint venture partnership managed

by Robert Martin Co., to place the floating-rate loan with Bank of America. The HFF debt placement team representing the borrower was led by executive managing director Mike Tepedino, senior director Peter Rotchford, director Scott Findlay and senior associate Jackie Ferrer. The deal was first announced last month when it was valued at $487.5 million.

ENHANCE YOUR BRAND AND BOOST MORALE George Latimer delivering the State of the County address.

He characterized Westchester County’s economy as “strong and growing” while adding, “The government of the county is not the source for that growth but we are a strong and reliable partner in those economic development efforts.” He expressed concern about the impact on development of Con Edison’s moratorium on new gas hookups. “We cannot let this impact our ability to build market-rate and affordable housing, and to attract business small, large and mid-sized,” Latimer said. “We are still working with the municipalities and the developers who are impacted by this moratorium — and we are working with them to get the resources they need to manage the projects that are at risk. This includes economic incentives for clean alternative ener�y sources, and job training to make sure we have a workforce that can assess the feasibility and install new ener�y sources.”

What you need to know about sexual harassment prevention training LEGISLATION REQUIRES NEW YORK EMPLOYERS TO IMPLEMENT TRAINING PROGRAMS; A CUSTOM APPROACH CAN BE USED, BUT IT MUST MEET ALL REQUIREMENTS BY JOSEPH D. MOSCHITTO, JAMES D. SCHUTZER and DANIEL L. WRIGHT

“W

ith the #MeToo movement, Gov. Andrew Cuomo and Mayor Bill de Blasio have come out swinging in a proactive attack to combat sexual harassment throughout New York,” reported the New York Law Journal in October 2018. The workplace should be a safe environment. No employee should ever feel threatened or sexually harassed. In the state of New York, this is not just common sense — it is also policy. Employers in New York state, regardless of size, are now required to implement a sexual harassment policy and prevention training program. The legislation was signed into law on April 12, 2018. When do these new rules take effect? They already have. As of Oct. 9, 2018, all New York state employers are required to adopt written sexual harassment prevention policies and institute annual anti-harassment training for employees by October 2019. From a prevention training perspective, employers have two options: to use the model training program developed by the Department of Labor and Division of Human Rights that is available online; or to develop and use their own custom version, which needs to meet the state’s minimum standards. The Society for Human Resource Management explains: “Employers are not required to include the verbatim language outlined in the state's model training materials. Rather, training programs must meet the minimum standards published by the state.”

If you are a business planning to develop and use your own training program, here is everything you need to know about those minimum requirements: Your training must be interactive. Sending an all-office email or pinning a piece of paper to the break room bulletin board will not cut it. Employers need to actively engage their employees in the training. In the state’s model program, this entails asking true or false questions about hypothetical sexual harassment scenarios. Your training must be accurate. The state requires that all trainings must “include an explanation of sexual harassment consistent with guidance issued by the Department of Labor in consultation with the Division of Human Rights.” The state defines sexual harassment as “a form of sex discrimination [that] is unlawful under federal, state, and (where applicable) local law.” The definition continues, “Sexual harassment includes harassment on the basis of sex, sexual orientation, self-identified or perceived sex, gender expression, gender identity and the status of being transgender.” Your training must include examples of sexual harassment. Employers must provide concrete scenarios that entail clear, unlawful sexual harassment, to ensure employees understand. In the state’s model program, examples of sexual harassment include displaying explicit materials in the workplace and sexually motivated touching or grabbing. Your training must address statutes and remedies. All training programs must “include information concerning the federal and state statutory provi-

sions concerning sexual harassment and remedies available to victims of sexual harassment,” the state notes. Remedies include filing a complaint with the New York State Division of Human Rights within one year of the incident; filing a complaint with the United States Equal Employment Opportunity Commission within 300 days of the incident; or contacting the local police department. Your training must address employees’ rights of redress. Further, the training must also address “all available forums for adjudicating complaints.” These processes include confidential investigations and disciplinary action against the perpetrator, which can include termination. Your training must address conduct by supervisors. The state outlines a specific type of sexual harassment titled “quid pro quo.” This is when “a person in authority trades, or tries to trade, job benefits for sexual favors.” Examples include offering job opportunities in exchange for a sexual relationship and/or threatening demotion if a sexual relationship is refused. The state also defines something called The Supervisor's Responsibility: “Supervisors and managers are held to a high standard of behavior. This is because they are placed in a position of authority by the employer and must not abuse that authority. They are expected to model appropriate workplace behavior.” Joseph D. Moschitto, James D. Schutzer and Daniel L. Wright are the president, vice president and director of business development at JDM Benefits, respectively. To learn more about company offerings, visit www.

ASK ANDI Finding the right clients TRYING HARD TO GET INTO A NEW CLIENT. THINK IT’S A GOOD FIT FOR US SINCE WE HANDLE A LOT OF THIS TYPE OF BUSINESS. CONCERNED ABOUT THE MARGIN, BUT I DON’T FEEL COMFORTABLE JACKING PRICES — ESPECIALLY ON REPEAT BUSINESS AND COMMODITY BUSINESS, WHICH THIS COULD BE. ALSO AWARE THAT IN TRYING TO GET INTO ANOTHER SIMILAR ACCOUNT WE DID A LOT OF FREE WORK ON A PROJECT THAT WENT NOWHERE. WHAT SHOULD WE DO? THOUGHTS OF THE DAY: Increase the value of each sale as you decrease risks. Educate potential customers on the best use of your products or services. Don’t wimp out when it comes time to negotiate. Know when a product life cycle is deteriorating. Look at your team’s sales skills. Are they as efficient and effective as they can be, moving the right prospects forward as quickly as possible at the highest possible

margin? If you’re not sure how to do that assessment, get some help. Make it clear what kinds and quantities of business your company wants to acquire over the upcoming two — three years. And then work with each salesperson to build a portfolio of prospects that matches those goals. Review the sales portfolio and results weekly — once a month isn’t frequent enough. If you review results

weekly, you have 50-plus opportunities to adjust anything that’s off. If you review results monthly, you’re down to 11 chances to fix things within the year. Develop rules about what makes a customer profitable or unprofitable and teach those rules to your sales force. Look at your customer portfolio, comparing longstanding and newly acquired customers, and customers by mix of products or services they buy. Focus on the best quantity/profit mix of customers. Be aware that the most expensive part of customer management is usually the cost to acquire new customers. Once the working relationship and trust are built, it’s easier to talk to existing customers about what else your company can do for them, and they’re more likely to tell you about what else

they might need from you. Once you have a customer, focus on selling that customer more things at higher margins. If you don’t have enough additional things to sell, fix the problem by doing R&D or by acquiring other products or services. Then build a program to work your way through every customer, to maximize what they buy from your company. Figure out who are your strongest negotiators and get them involved, either meeting with prospects or coaching peers on how to handle negotiations. Know that it’s every customer’s job to ask for discounts and freebies. That doesn’t mean you have to cave in. Build negotiating room into your proposal. And practice saying, “No, but how about this alternative,” when a deal doesn’t make sense. Give

salespeople permission to walk away from bad deals. Beware when requests for discounts increase, competitive threats go up and/or quantity of good customers is in decline. Those could be signs that a valuable product or service is no more. And if so, you need to rethink your company’s reliance on that product or service. Move sideways into more profitable territory by looking for ways to make your offer fresh, new and different. Add an extra service that no one else provides. Ask customers how else they use the product and promote unique ideas. Look for additional customer markets that your competitors may not be involved in. Also look for markets that competitors are giving up on where you could be dominant and profitable once the competition

falls away. Consider merging or buying in order to become a stronger competitive force.

Krasdale builds business by working with store owners BY RYAN DEFFENBAUGH rdeffenbaugh@westfairinc.com

teve Silver is the newly minted president of Krasdale Foods Inc., the century-old grocery distributor that stocks the shelves that feed millions of New York City residents each day. In a conversation with the Business Journal about the grocery business and his new role, he uses the term “challenge” often. “It’s a challenge to stay ahead of the curve,” Silver said from the company’s corporate headquarters on the Platinum Mile in Harrison. “You have to be innovative, you have to adapt to changing consumer tastes, you have to adapt to the digital world when supermarket businesses have traditionally always used print media.” Real estate and wages cost more than ever, shrinking profits further in an industry where margins have long been slim. Digital competitors

are closing in on the local grocer Krasdale serves, offering to send groceries to consumers’ doorsteps. Krasdale, which has survived since 1908, has clear strengths, including a network of more than 350 independently owned supermarkets Krasdale supplies under its Bravo and C-Town banners; a private brand with nearly 800 products; and a 300,000-square-foot warehouse in the Bronx that makes the company the only grocery wholesaler left within city limits. “Because of where we are located … we have a huge tactical and logistical advantage over anybody,” Silver said. But despite steady company growth and a strong base of grocery clients, Silver adds that Krasdale “can’t rest on its laurels. You have to prove to everybody that you are on your game and it makes sense to be our customer.” Krasdale has been owned and operated by the Krasne family for all of its 111 years.

Silver has been with the company for 38 of those years, rising from a junior staff accountant to accountant manager, controller, CFO and now president. He took over the role in January from Charles Krasne, the family’s second-generation owner and leader, who will remain CEO and chairman of the Krasdale board. The company spent its first seven decades supplying dry groceries to New York City’s supermarkets, which is still a major part of the business today. But shortly before Silver joined the company, in 1981, its leadership launched a new part of the business that has since driven Krasdale’s growth. At the time, supermarkets were abandoning the city for larger stores on cheaper land in the suburbs. Meanwhile, local markets struggled to compete with larger chains. In response, Krasdale launched C-Town, a way for smaller, independently owned grocery stores in the city to team up for the same

bulk advantages of their larger competitors. Krasdale provided branding, marketing, merchandise and designed weekly sales circulars for the stores, but each remained independently owned. The local control was important for Krasdale’s mix of small New York City grocers, as the stores often cater their offerings to best serve the diverse populations of their neighborhoods. “We were smart enough to realize that while we have the expertise in the industry, they know their consumers better than we do,” Silver said. Within a decade, a dozen C-Town stores grew to 200. Suddenly those stores had buying power. Directed through Krasdale, stores got better prices on meat, dairy and produce, along with the dry goods in Krasdale’s warehouse. C-Town ads ran on full pages of the Daily News at

rates that individual owners could never afford. Through pooling resources and driving product costs down, Silver said Krasdale helped give independent store owners “the opportunity to compete with anybody else.” As the needs of the stores grew, Krasdale added to its banner offerings to include register systems and digital marketing. Krasdale also provides stores financing for expansion, land purchases and other business costs. Particularly in the early days of the C-Town brand, the mostly cash-driven nature of the small grocery business made traditional bank financing difficult for store owners, Silver said. Krasdale helped stores expand and they likely then needed more products from Krasdale. Today Krasdale’s banners for independent stores have

expanded to include Bravo, Market Fresh and Shop Smart among other titles. By the ’90s, the company’s need for corporate offices had outgrown the small executive space in its Bronx warehouse. That’s when Krasdale arrived in Westchester County, signing a lease for the second floor of a three-level building at 65 W. Red Oak Lane in Harrison. The company eventually expanded to occupy the entire building before spending $5.5 million to purchase it in 2005. About 200 of Krasdale’s 550 employees work out of the Harrison office with the rest in the Bronx. Krasdale is enough of a family company that Silver’s years on the job make him just the 18th longest tenured person in the company. He said Krasdale employees take pride in helping small grocery owners build businesses that span generations, just as Krasdale has. The grocery store owners the company works with “have been able to grow from often being immigrants coming to the United States and maybe opening a bodega, to then transforming that bodega into a supermarket with our help, then maybe they own two or three stores, and then expanding to Florida,” Silver said. “It has been a good run for a lot of families.”

Crystal Run Healthcare to cease health plan operation BY PETER KATZ pkatz@westfairinc.com

rystal Run Healthcare, which has its administrative headquarters in Middletown, and provides health care services throughout the Hudson Valley and lower Catskill region, has decided to close its Crystal Run Health Plans operations. It has been offering complete plans for health care coverage to individuals as well as group plans for businesses. Crystal Run Healthcare is a multispecialty group practice with

approximately 400 physicians in nearly 50 medical specialties. The decision to close its health plans does not affect the medical services offered by Crystal Run Healthcare. The health plans promoted a choice of more than 4,000 providers throughout the Hudson Valley, a wider network than just the physicians within Crystal Run Healthcare. Crystal Run Health Plan LLC had filed a notice with New York state that layoffs at its health plans office were expected to begin after July 8. It reported 32 total employees with 7 of those to be affected.

In a statement prepared for the Business Journal, Hal Teitelbaum, who is the managing partner and CEO and established Crystal Run Healthcare in 1996, said: “Unfortunately, like many new plans, the risk adjustment methodolo�y in the Affordable Care Act created an impractical and unsustainable financial obligation for insurers. We will continue to honor our commitments to the members and providers of Crystal Run Health Plans as we work with the regulators on a plan of closure. This decision, however, in no way impacts Crystal Run’s medical practice.”

BANKING & FINANCE WESTCHESTER COUNTY BUSINESS JOURNAL

KeyBank’s growth strategy is based on acquiring technology BY PETER KATZ pkatz@westfairinc.com

eyBank’s new Hudson Valley/ Metro NY market president David W. Lewing said the bank is very bullish on lending in the current economic environment. He told the Business Journal the knowledge KeyBank personnel bring to the table “allows us to be, perhaps, a little more, call it ‘understanding and supportive’ of business credit and lending requests.” Lewing moved to the post from a middle market team leader position, succeeding Joseph F. Markey, who was promoted to regional sales manager for KeyBank’s east region. Lewing joined KeyBank

in 2014 as an enterprise banker. In 2017, he assumed the role of middle market team leader. He previously had been with Wachovia Securities, Wells Fargo Bank, Toronto Dominion Securities and Chemical Bank. “The market president basically drives the collaboration and is responsible for community investment across all of our business segments doing business in this market,” Lewing said. “Those segments would consist of the commercial banking group, the business banking group, the private bank and the consumer and retail bank including the branches. My direct responsibility is focused on the middle market business. I’m essentially the face of the bank for those businesses in the Hudson Valley market.”

Although he works at the bank’s regional offices in Tarrytown and New York City, Lewing spends a great deal of time on the road. “I will travel throughout our market footprint, which will go as far north as Poughkeepsie and includes Fairfield County and then into New York City,” he said. “There are many companies

and individually owned businesses that are investing in their own businesses rather than managing for cash flow, meaning they are cautiously optimistic about a continued favorable environment for growth. I would call it basically a stable environment and favorable for businesses.” KeyBank is the primary

subsidiary of KeyCorp, based in Cleveland. Its year-to-date net income was $2.04 billion and total assets were $137.9 billion with domestic deposits at $110 billion. “In terms of New York state as a whole, we have loan commitments in excess of $25 billion and deposits in excess of $30 billion,” Lewing said. The bank is lending across all segments and tends to be very active in chemicals, food, health care and business service companies, he said. Lewing said part of the bank’s growth strate�y is based on acquiring technolo�y, not only to use in the bank’s operations, but also as investment vehicles. He pointed to an alliance with AvidXchange, a financial technolo�y company that

WCBJ

automates accounts-payable operations, and the acquisition of HelloWallet, which invites people to “say hello to an easier way to manage your money.” “We just closed on a major acquisition of a company called Laurel Road (which) is a technolo�y company that is basically an online provider of student lending,” he said. Lewing added that it has generated about $4 billion in student loans. “We are making these types of investments in lieu of simply investing in another commercial banking business that simply expands our footprint. We’re focused on the footprint that we currently have and then leveraging technolo�y to build a more national presence,” Lewing told the Business Journal.

Follow stock market trends, not the predictions BY VERN HAYDEN

n Dec. 31, 2019, the Dow Jones Industrials will be at 27,847.82, the S&P 500 will be at 3,027.98 and the tech-heavy Nasdaq will be 8,354.88. Most predictions I have seen over the years do not happen either. During the tech crash Barron’s did a survey of 22 Wall Street experts and their predictions for the Dow and Nasdaq for 2001 and 2002. In 2001, the Dow closed at 10,021 and the Nasdaq closed at 1,950. The closest predictions were 11,400 and 2,500, respectively. In 2002, the Dow closed at 8,342 and the Nasdaq closed at 1,336. The closest predictions were 10,000 and 1,700,

respectively. The great “perma bull” Abby Joseph Cohen of Goldman Sachs predicted in December 2007 that the S&P 500 would rally to 1,675 in 2008. Instead, it retreated to 741. Please don’t ever base your investment strate�y on predictions. I think it is more feasible to have a feel for the direction of the market. As you can see from my predictions I think the direction of the market is up for 2019. We have had the best January and February in decades. Is there a January effect, meaning a strong January predicts a good year in the market? Ken Fisher, a columnist for Forbes, has written an article entitled “Seasonality,

however you slice it isn’t predictive.” He has a chart going back 40 years on this. Out of the last 10 years only four times January proved to be predictive. It’s nice to have a strong beginning to a year but don’t base your investment strate�y on it. From my research I don’t believe we will have a recession this year. I think we are getting closer to one. Larry Kudlow, the head of President Donald Trump’s national economic council, said, “The president’s policies are working. There are lower tax rates, deregulation, trade reform, ener�y reform and they are all really working.” I look at the rest of this year like when I was a kid and bought a ticket to take the scary ride through the

haunted house. Riding in the little car in the dark and going around every corner filled with suspense I would try to be brave and not scream at the skeleton that almost jumped in my lap or yell at the wicked witch that was going to clobber me with her broom and, well, you get the idea. There could be a scary surprise from the Fed even though we are almost convinced they won’t risk raising rates this year. It is hoped that the 10-year interest rate will stay around 2.8 and the 30-year rate at around 3. Perhaps the biggest and most serious unknown is the relationship between China and the U.S. China impacts the entire world, but so far, not as much as the U.S. The

book “The China Dream” by Liu Mingfu says it all. The first page reads, “It has been China’s dream for a century to become the world’s leading nation. China’s economy will lead the world. As China rises to the status of a great power in the 21st century, its aim is to be the leader of the modern global economy.” The author is a retired colonel of the People’s Liberation Army and a professor at China’s National Defense University. This relationship will impact our investment environment for years to come. President Xi has to be smiling as he sees the seeds of socialism being planted in the U.S. He knows this will facilitate the transfer of world hegemony from the U.S. to China. This month is the 10-year

anniversary of the bull market. The S&P 500 has quadru-pled. Yet the S&P has endured eight bear markets (a decline of 20 percent or more) in the past 60 years. That averages one every 7½ years. On that basis we are overdue but I don’t think this is the year.

STEPINAC THEATRE’S PREMIERE OF ‘A BRONX TALE’

The cast of ‘A Bronx Tale.’

Rehearsals continue for Stepinac Theatre’s national high school premiere of the Broadway smash hit musical “A Bronx Tale” for five performances in May. The cast includes Jeremy Fuentes of Mahopac, a junior, who will play Calogero; Lachland Boyle of Hartsdale, a senior, will play Lorenzo; and Thomas Bilotta of Vahalla will play Sonny. The key female roles of Rosina, Calogero’s mother and Jane, Calogero’s romantic interest, will be respectively performed by Gabriella Palminteri of Bedford, a junior at Fox Lane High School and Sasha Spitz of Rye, a

senior at Rye High School. Palminteri is the daughter of Academy Award nominee Chazz Palminteri who wrote the book for the musical version of his original play. Frank Portanova (Class of ’93), who will direct the Stepinac production, said: “This is a show about choices. Like Calogero, our students often face the same temptations from a culture that values expediency over hard work, a culture that seduces with promises of power and wealth and a culture that celebrates lawlessness over justice.” Keith Sunderland

(Class of ’94) is the producer. The opening night performance will be at Stepinac’s Major Bowes Auditorium in White Plains at 7 p.m., Friday, May 3, with four additional performances scheduled for 7 p.m., Saturday, May 4; Friday and Saturday, May 10 and 11 and a Mother’s Day matinee at 2 p.m. Sunday, May 12. Reserved seat ticket prices are $22 for adults and $18 for seniors and children under 12. For more information and reservations, call (914) 946-4800, ext. 200, or send an e-mail to theatre@stepinac.org.
