A half-dozen zones to vie for three upstate casinos
BY Bill FAllON bfallon@westfairinc.com
A DOZEN YEARS AFTER THE CATSKILLS region was promised three casinos – and none arrived – the governor’s office this month released a plan to revive the process across upstate New York. Gov. Andrew Cuomo proposed breaking the state into six districts, three of which would be awarded full-blown casinos. Westchester and Rockland counties, the five boroughs and Long Island are excluded, as are current Indian gaming enterprises. Prospective developers of the gaming resorts should expect to spend a minimum of $250 million to $500 million in capital investment. “This has such a long history,” said Jonathan Drapkin, president and CEO of Pattern for Progress, the Newburgh-based planning and advocacy nonprofit. “We have been at it for
so long neither the upside is as big as it once was nor the downside so bad. As states like Massachusetts and Pennsylvania have gotten into gambling, the market shrinks. But the total negatives – things like traffic and unknowns associated with casinos – have gone down. Let’s come up with a thoughtful way to say where and let’s have at it.” “You hear of the negatives of things like traffic,” said Laurence Gottlieb, president and CEO of the Hudson Valley Economic Development Corp. for the past two months and previously economic development director for Westchester County. “The reality is that what usually follows is investment in critical infrastructure.” The driving force behind the governor’s initiative, according to Gottlieb, is “the competitive nature of gaming” among revenue-seeking states.

evelopers at Westchester’s Ridge Hill are clashing in a state court over more than $1.6 million in payments that the owner of the mixed-use development in Yonkers claims to be owed by the company that built and owns a condominium tower in the 81-acre commercial “village” overlooking the Thruway. owners of The Monarch, a 162-unit, glasssheathed building planned as the first of four luxury residences in a 500-unit, estimated $300 million condo complex on the western flank of Ridge Hill, were seeking a buyer for the underoccupied property this year, according to a source in the Westchester real estate industry. Newsday reported in February that 55 units – about one-third of those marketed – had been sold in the 13-story tower that opened in early 2012. The Monarch’s developer, Horizon at Ridge Hill L.LC., is the defendant in a complaint filed last summer in state Supreme Court by FC Yonkers Associates L.L.C., an entity of Ridge Hill’s Brooklynbased developer, Forest City Ratner Companies. Forest City claims the condo developer defaulted on contractual payments that total at least $1,606,955. Attorneys for Forest City said the unpaid sums include $588,900 for infrastructure and site development work done by Ridge’s Hill’s owner at Horizon’s nearly 7-acre condo site; an additional The Ridge, page 6

a few years ago when the economy took a dive.” He said the Shops at Nanuet went through “50 concepts” before the current incarnation gained approval. Design is by Dorsky + Yue International L. L. C. architects in Cleveland, Ohio, with construction by Whiting-Turner Contracting Co., headquartered in Baltimore, Md. . The cost of the redevelopment was not disclosed. “We never release the cost of the project,” Schneider said. “It’s significant,” he added after a pause, eliciting laughs from the audience. Schneider said the bulk of retailers will be ready for the October opening, with the remainder expected to join the lineup next spring. A mall boulevard, complete with greenery, will welcome shoppers to the pedestrian-friendly center. “Most of the project is oriented around what we call Fashion Drive,” Schneider said. Among other retailers leasing space there are Ann Taylor, Banana Republic, lululemon athletica, Brighton Collectibles, Chico’s, White House/Black Market, Victoria’s Secret, Jos. A. Bank, Lovesac Alternative Furniture Co. and Lush Fresh Handmade Cosmetics. Dining options will include P.F. Chang’s, Bonefish Grill, Lime Fresh Mexican Grill and Zinburger. “We’re very pleased with the leasing effort,” Schneider added, noting that by next spring he expects the Shops at Nanuet to be “virtually full.” And, Schneider added, the project is about to move into its final phase. “The tenants will be taking possession this month,” he said, preparing their indi-
ichael Kors, Coach and Vera Bradley will be among the retail mix when The Shops at Nanuet opens this autumn, the final step in a revamping of the former Nanuet Mall in Rockland County. Most of the approximately 50 tenants at the 750,000-square-foot development off Route 59 will be ready for shoppers, diners and other patrons when the outdoor mall opens Oct. 10, said Thomas J. Schneider, executive vice president of development for Simon Property Group Inc., the mall’s owner. More than 30 tenants, including restaurants, service companies and fashion retailers, were announced at a recent press conference that included a hard-hat tour of the future home of 24 Hour Fitness. The state-of-the art, 45,000-square-foot workout center will join Fairway Market, a 12-screen Regal Cinemas complex and current anchors Macy’s and Sears, which have remained open during the yearlong construction project, as the largest tenants. Schneider, based in Simon’s Indianapolis, Ind. office, said work at the revitalized cen-
ter is proceeding on time and is meeting Simon’s expectations. “We’re a little over five months from opening and we couldn’t be more excited,” he said. “We feel very strongly that this will be a very successful center.” The open-air mall, which replaces a traditional indoor mall that dated to the late 1960s, ends a long saga of decline that saw the Nanuet Mall continue to struggle following the late-’90s opening of the Palisades Center in West Nyack, the Pyramid Management Group’s shopping and entertainment center that is about four miles from the Simon development. The “clean, fresh” effort that will be the Shops at Nanuet will not attempt to replicate the Palisades Center, Schneider said. . “There’s always competition between and among retail venues,” he said. “We’re clearly offering something different. I think we’re offering something different in terms of size, scale, design.” “Malls never die easy,” he said of the Nanuet Mall. “At some point you’ve got to decide to start over.” It just took time for things to fall into place. “We’ve been planning this project forever,” Schneider said. “We were ready to go
vidual stores for opening. Sharing the enthusiasm for the Shops at Nanuet was Aaron Fleishaker, senior vice president of real estate and construction at Fairway Market, who said the iconic New York City grocery company’s first venture into Rockland County, and 14th store overall, will offer residents something special. “I think we’re going to give the people of Rockland County a unique food experience,” he said. He added the Fairway store will also boost the local economy, with hundreds of skilled workers needed to man the 66,097-square-foot destination that will feature specialty foods and a sit-down café. “Fairway is a good job store,” he said. “Our average store hires between 350 and 400 employees.” Alexander J. Gromack, supervisor for the town of Clarkstown, said The Shops at Nanuet project is a boost for the surrounding community. “To say that this is an important project is an understatement,” Gromack said. “We’ve really been a part of this every step of the way.” And, he added, having the entire town board on hand for the announcement reflected its importance. “We want the town of Clarkstown to show we are indeed business friendly. It’s not just a slogan.” Gromack said the project has already “revitalized the spirit of the people of Clarkstown.” A major mall developer in this region, Simon Property Group also owns Woodbury Common Premium Outlets in Orange County, The Galleria at White Plains and The Westchester in White Plains.

health plan chief sees opportunity in new alliance
Georganne Chapin, left, president and CEO of Hudson Health Plan, with MVP Health Care President and CEO Denise V. Gonick.
BY JOHN GOlDEN jgolden@westfairinc.com
A
t Hudson Health Plan headquarters in Tarrytown, Georganne Chapin said she was “really excited” at the wider prospects ahead on the state’s shifting health care landscape for the nonprofit insurance provider she leads as president
and CEO. After a year of planning, Chapin and her counterpart at MVP Health Care in Schenectady recently announced that Hudson will join the MVP family of companies. It is an affiliation of two “very like-minded” companies rather than a consolidation or an acquisition, Chapin said of the deal, financial terms of which were not disclosed. The Tarrytown company will continue to operate as Hudson Health Plan and no layoffs are expected in the wake of the new alliance. “What we end up with is still very much to be determined,” Chapin said of the affiliation that has been approved by the state Health Department. “Mostly what we have now is the outline of a deal.” Hudson serves approximately 120,600 members enrolled in the state-sponsored Medicaid Managed Care, Child Health Plus and Family Health Plus plans in Westchester, Dutchess, Orange, Rockland, Ulster and Sullivan counties. The organization’s federally recognized expertise in the Medicaid managed care field will be useful to MVP in serving its Medicaid clients in the Capital Region and Western New York, “in exchange for their expertise in other lines of care such as Medicare,” said the Hudson CEO. Chapin said the affiliation with MVP, which offers Medicare and other plans, gives
Hudson members more options when moving out of Medicaid. In addition, “Having Medicare is a very big deal as people age out of commercial insurance.” In an earlier joint announcement with MVP Health Care President and CEO Denise V. Gonick, Chapin said her company expects the affiliation “will create many new opportunities for our customers, employees and communities. We will now become part of an organization with the critical mass necessary to thrive and grow in the rapidly evolving health care field.” Together Hudson and MVP will serve approximately 733,000 members in New York. Gonick and Chapin said their companies will be well-positioned to grow in membership and compete in the New York State Health Benefit Exchange that will open in October as an alternative insurance marketplace for individuals and small businesses. Chapin said Hudson did not plan to offer individual and small business insurance on its own in the Health Benefit Exchange. “It was our strategy to work with another health plan and not have to start from scratch,” she said. Gonick said Hudson and MVP “both have excellent reputations for customer service, which will be a major consideration for consumers purchasing insurance through
the Exchange.” She added that Hudson’s expertise in community-based enrollment that focuses on individuals “will be invaluable as MVP moves into direct consumer sales in the Exchange environment.” “The health care reform and changes in the health care environment are definitely driving all kinds of new arrangements, partnerships. consolidations and affiliations,” Chapin said in a phone interview.“Definitely we’re all looking to get bigger or diversify our health care business.” “It definitely was part of the reason that we came together. The other reason is just the economics of insurance: the bigger business you have, the better.” Both Hudson Health Plan and MVP are among six health plans chosen to participate in an initiative sponsored by the federal Center for Medicare & Medicaid Innovation in which primary care practices assume responsibility for coordinating care for patients with complex medical needs. MVP officials said the company’s commercial and Medicare Advantage programs were among the highest-rated plans in the National Committee for Quality Assurance health insurance plan rankings from 20122013. Hudson Health Plan has ranked highest in overall satisfaction among Medicaid members in the Hudson Valley since 2003.

LCOR proposal advances in Greenburgh 100 acres spawns mixed-use blueprints, traffic questions
BY SAM BARRON sbarron@westfairinc.com
A
100-acre parcel at the 270-acre Landmark at Eastview complex in Greenburgh could soon be home to a large-scale retail and hotel complex. The town board officially accepted the proposal’s revised environmental statement May 8 and scheduled a public hearing on that statement and on the site plan for June 12. A municipal neighbor with traffic concerns, meantime, has been assured of a place it the planning table. The town of Greenburgh accepted the draft environmental impact statement (DEIS) of Eastview Holdings L.L.C., a subsidiary of LCOR Inc., a New York City-based, large-scale real estate and development company whose projects include Bank Street Commons in downtown White Plains and Terminal 4 at JFK Airport in Queens. The complex would be adjacent to Regeneron Pharmaceuticals Inc. headquarters at 777 Old Saw Mill River Road and next to the Madison Square Garden training complex where the New York Knicks, New York Rangers and New York Liberty practice. LCOR has proposed a 125,450-square-
foot retail complex along with a 110-room hotel and bank, with additional 286,000 square feet of retail consisting of two big box stores on 40 acres of the property. A gas station has also been proposed. LCOR originally purchased the property from Union Carbide Corp. in 1999 for $82 million when Union Carbide declared bankruptcy. Town officials expressed support for the project, saying it will bring much needed property tax revenue to the town. Supervisor Paul Feiner estimates it will bring in revenues ranging from $4.5 million to $7 million annually. LCOR estimates 750 construction jobs will be needed for the complex and the project will create 755 fulltime jobs. According to LCOR’s DEIS, the proposed development will provide $2.47 million per year in tax revenues, with $734,510 going to the town and $1.1 million going to the Pocantico Hills Central School District. “We are favorably inclined to support this project,” Feiner said. “It will bring in revenue with no impact on the school district. It will generate additional commercial businesses.” Feiner said he thinks the complex
will force the state to make much-needed improvements to Route 9A. “It could finally come to fruition after decades of discussion,” Feiner said. “I think this is a very positive proposal. It won’t have a major impact on residential properties.” The town board is lead agency on the project. A public hearing will be held June 12 to discuss the DEIS and site plan. The town’s Department of Community Development and Conservation is accepting written comments. The town board said rezoning discussions will take about six months and, if approved, it could take LCOR another year-plus to start construction. The town first adopted the DEIS in July 2012. A revised version was submitted May 1 and approved a week later. “I see nothing but positives here,” Feiner said. “This will help us attract more biotech companies and lower our unemployment.” Feiner said that projects like this show that Greenburgh is a desirable place for people to do business and hopes the project attracts more biotech companies to the complex. Not everyone is laying out the welcome mat. Mount Pleasant Supervisor Joan Maybury has expressed her concerns about
the project, fearing negative impacts to her town, which borders the property. “I’ve looked at it very closely,” Maybury said. “It may be too much mixed-use development for this location. I don’t know how this road will be able to handle all of this traffic.” Maybury said she hopes the town will be involved in the project. Feiner has said Mount Pleasant will have input on the zoning process. In the DEIS, LCOR said the land use pattern will change, but it is not incompatible with biomedical and office uses already on the property. “It is not anticipated that the proposed development will have a significant adverse impact on area land uses,” the DEIS said. “It will introduce compatible uses to the existing properties in a manner similar to the mixed-use pattern of development that exists throughout the Route 9A corridor.” The supervisor fears a project like this could change the character of the neighborhood, which is not now home to big-box stores. “You are putting these big-box stores right on the side of the road,” Maybury said. “People will have to go through Mount Pleasant to get here. This project should be under a lot of scrutiny.”

$500,000 due from Horizon under a 2007 land purchase agreement; $476,055 for submetered electricity used during construction of the Monarch, and at least $42,000 for common area expenses and maintenance charges related to Horizon’s licensed use of rent-free space in Forest City’s sole office building at Ridge Hill as a sales office and condo showroom. The Ridge Hill landlord also asked the court to evict Horizon from the 10,500-squarefoot space at 73 Market St., the new Yonkers office of Westmed Medical Group. Attorneys claimed Horizon continued to unlawfully occupy the space despite repeated notices from Forest City. Horizon agreed to vacate the premises by March 31, according to court documents. The website of the Horizon Group, the parent company of the Yonkers condo developer, lists the sales office address as 701 Ridge Hill Blvd., the Monarch’s location. The sales office, though, apparently is not regularly staffed during business hours. Several calls there by the Business Journal were answered by a recorded operator’s message.

“Nevada has many levels of gambling, from slots in the airport to the full casinos,” he said. “It is far more bifurcated than it used to be, from the occasional scratch game player to the sophisticated individual who flies in from another country to play baccarat. There has to be room for all of it. From an economic development perspective, if it brings more jobs and more tax revenue, it is great for overall economic development.” Said Drapkin: “The people in the industry know the tendencies of their customers. This presents the potential for other businesses to come in to serve them. It’s time to move the discussion forward. Let’s see if we can find three well-placed, well-financed sites.” Gottlieb grew up going to the former Concord Resort Hotel – which is being remade and would be in the running – and called it “a wonderful site.” “The Concord plan for a destination resort mirrors what’s being done in Connecticut and Pennsylvania,” he said. “You need to make it a destination with more than just gambling and the developer” – Kansas City, Mo.-based EPR Properties – “is in a good place for this philosophically.” Brian Moriarty, a spokesman for

al store, cinema and restaurant openings at Ridge Hill that began in 2011, the rift between developers has widened out of public view. In the most recent court filing in midMarch, an attorney for Forest City described Horizon’s new claim that a $500,000 wire payment in 2010 was intended as a final purchase payment rather than as a delinquent installment on its site development debt as “gamesmanship” and an attempt to engage in “a shell game.” The Monarch development is led by David Marom, a native of Israel and Long Island resident who in the 1980s founded the Horizon Group, a real estate development and investment company. Since 1992, Marom has partnered on his residential and commercial projects in the metropolitan area with two Israeli companies, Izaki Group Investment and Azorim Investment Development & Construction Ltd., a publicly traded company that reportedly sustained heavy financial losses in 2009 and 2010. The Israeli partners have stakes in Marom’s Ridge Hill project. The Horizon Group on its website now lists the Monarch address at Ridge Hill as its contact location. Marom could not be reached there for comment. Last September, state Supreme Court Justice Alan D. Scheinkman ordered that
a notice of pendency filed by Forest City Ratner on the Monarch property at Ridge Hill be canceled. The judge in his decision noted that Marom claimed his opponent filed the notice, which asserts Forest City’s right to collect its debt if the property is sold or transferred, to gain leverage in the legal action. Marom, the judge said, claimed the filing with the county clerk’s
office “has made it difficult, if not impossible, for Horizon to close on the sale of its condominium units because title companies are reluctant to insure over a notice of pendency.” At Forest City Ratner’s Brooklyn office, senior vice president Ashley Cotton said the company “cannot comment on an active lawsuit.”
EPR Properties, which is partnering on the Concord redevelopment with Empire Resorts Inc. in Monticello, declined to comment on Cuomo’s plan. “Certainly we are aware of the governor’s proposal,” he said. “We feel we’re in a good position where we are, but we have no specific comments on the proposal.” A real estate investment trust, EPR counts ski resorts, cinema complexes, golf and water parks and charter schools among its properties. A former development partner in Westchester of Louis Cappelli and Valhalla-based Cappelli Enterprises Inc., EPR is now sole owner of the New Roc City entertainment and retail complex in New Rochelle and a former owner of City Center in White Plains. The Concord, at Kiamesha Lake in the town of Thompson, could be a launch site for the casino proposal. The town has completed its environmental reviews and has green-lighted the planned hotel, horseracing oval and golf course. “The Concord is in good shape with the town and in good shape financially,” Drapkin said. “Even if it were built to a modest scale, it would help Ulster, Orange and Sullivan counties. It would be hard to say with the Concord that it is not wellplaced or that it’s a bad thing.” The governor, though, will not ultimately decide the fate of his proposal. “The
Legislature will decide,” Gottlieb said. “It’s up to them” to submit the gaming proposal to New York voters as a ballot referendum. The state senator most closely associated with the issue, however, wants more than one casino for the Catskills resorts region, which has declined from its Borscht Belt golden age. “I will be advocating for three casinos in the Catskills region, not just the one the governor wants,” said state Sen. John Bonacic, whose district includes the Monticello Raceway and the proposed Concord project. He is chairman of the Senate’s judiciary and racing committees. “The Catskills had three casinos authorized by a 2001 law,” Bonacic said. “Western New York likewise had three proposed. Western New York received their three casinos; the Catskills have not received any. Three casinos in the Catskills would bring a greater return to the state and substantially reduce unemployment. “If the governor gets this done, he will correctly be able to claim he created thousands – perhaps tens of thousands – of jobs in upstate New York,” Bonacic said. “If, however, the referendum is so poorly defined that voters are left with more questions than answers, I am concerned they will vote ‘no.’ Cuomo laid out the following siting selection criteria: • Number of jobs and workforce develop-
ment. • Amount of capital investment with an expected floor of $250 to $500 million. • Amount of projected revenue to state and localities. • Local support. • Amount of franchise fee. • Vision for development and integration with regional tourism; • Immediate and full financing available; • Comprehensive development approach; • Experience in gaming development; • Speed in construction and date of completion; • Ethics and integrity reviews; • Labor agreement • Environmental sensitivity. • A plan for addressing problem gambling. “Our state has a unique opportunity to revitalize the local economies of communities in upstate New York and create thousands of new jobs where they are needed most,” Cuomo said in a prepared statement. “For years neighboring states like Connecticut and New Jersey have benefited from New Yorkers leaving our state to visit their gaming facilities. We want to reverse this trend by putting new resort destinations in upstate New York, a strategy that will attract more tourists and visitors to come and shop at our local businesses, visit regional attractions and help create new jobs in our communities.”

hree-hundred people attended the Cosentino Center – Westchester opening recently in the Spanish company’s new Mount Kisco showroom and warehouse, more than a half-acre under one roof. James Amendola, general manager, said Cosentino, with operations in 60 countries and 2,200 global employees, did its homework before selecting Westchester for its newest shop, No. 22 in the U.S. for Cosentino and one of 82 around the world. “They keep a finger on the pulse,” Amendola said. “The geography where we are means we can serve all of New York City, Long Island, southern Connecticut, central and northern New Jersey and some of eastern Pennsylvania. We’re very well centered in an attractive area.” Cosentino sells to the trade, although it also encourages tradespeople to bring in clients. The space is polished and stunning and features a fully outfitted classroom. Trade oriented means construction oriented for Cosentino and that industry has been battered in the last five years. “I think we’re on the up and up,” Amendola said. “We’re not out of the recession, but we are starting to see commercial business surpass our goals. We’re seeing a more optimistic attitude. The more homeowners and consumers that get comfortable, the more they’ll start to spend. Cosentino would not have made this investment if it did not see the same thing. Among Cosentino’s offerings are its Silestone, which is 93 percent quartz bound with a resin binder. Cosentino’s Eco line contains 75 percent post-consumer, postindustrial-use stone bound with a cornbased resin; the Iron Ore Eco product lines the men’s room, sparkling like a clear night sky. Other lines include Scalea natural
stone, Sensa granite, Martique marble and the Prexury line of countertops cut from dynamic patterns of mineral, fossil and petrified wood. Cosentino stones come in three thicknesses for a variety of uses: 1-3 cms. Cosentino calls itself the global leader in natural stone, quartz and recycled surfaces. It operates in Mount Kisco as Cosentino North America. The address is 333 N. Bedford Road. “The Westchester center is a fantastic addition to our nationwide group of showrooms and distribution centers,” said Lorenzo Marquez, Cosentinos’ vice president for marketing. “We felt it was critical to have a foundation in the greater New York area, a leading hub for innovative architecture and design.”

or many, the cloak of abstractness fell from economics in autumn 2008. Markets cratered and firms and family houses cratered with them. News reports dredged up President Harry Truman and his plea for a one-armed economist so there could be no “on the other hand” to explain things. Bruce McCain, a Ph.D. economist from CalBerkeley who oversees KeyBank investment strategy for $20 billion and who possesses two athletic arms, was at the time using both of them to pound tables. “Two trends emerged over the last decade,” McCain said. “As the world controlled birth rates, it did so too fast. Now the baby-boom issue – the pig in the python – is replicated in every industrialized country. But the U.S. alone has a brighter outlook because we have an echo-boom working its way through the system more so than in Europe and China. Onechild policy and gender selection leave China with an enormous problem in the years ahead. “The second issue is competition from China,” he said. “We did not adjust our style of living downward, going into debt instead. The nation is still growing, but we’re going to have to work harder in the future and with fewer resources if we want to live as well. “Combine these two issues and the U.S. is squarely in the vortex.” As chief investment strategist and senior vice president for KeyBank, McCain, 58, oversees activity on $20.3 billion across the bank’s 18 regions between Alaska and Florida. Key operates 1,028 branches, including one in Stamford, Conn., and more than 150 across New York state. His economic report last week – via a weekly in-house letter for clients titled “Investment Weekly” – said in part and in brief: • the 165,000 increase in nonfarm jobs modestly beat expectations, but also showed significant positive revisions to the prior two months; • personal income rose 0.2 percent in March, sharply lower than the 1.1 percent increase in February, because wage growth was particularly slow. Consumption spending beat the consensus estimate, but still rose only 0.2 percent; and • the Case-Shiller home price indexes rose 1.2 percent, the largest gain in approximately eight years, as prices rose in each of the 20 metro areas sampled. The newsletter and a second “Economic & Investment” quarterly delve deeply into the acronym soup of consumer, private-sector and federal economics for metrics that never appear on the evening news. McCain travels about eight weeks per year. May 9 found him and Key’s president for Hudson Valley/Metro New York, Ruth
Mahoney, in the Business Journal offices in White Plains, stitching together a day that had already featured a cancelled breakfast and would immediately feature a trip to Ulster County to address investors. “I’m his driver,” Mahoney joked. In a sitdown, McCain dispels any collegeera thoughts of micro- and macro-economics being different animals. In McCain’s world, the macroeconomics of international interest rates and a national debt above a trillion dollars will arrive micro-economically on your personal bottom line. “Medicare is clearly growing too fast,” he said, citing one national metric with very personal repercussions. “We don’t even pretend to have the pool of assets to fix it. The combined foreseeable shortfall for both Medicare and Social Security is $40 trillion. “Another factor is the interest cost on expenses we’ve already accumulated,” he said. “Historically, interest rates have hovered around 8 percent. If 8 percent were the case today, you could instantly add $1 trillion to the national debt.” Currently, he said, China lends the U.S $400 billion per year and that is not necessarily a bad thing: “In the short run, the exchange of goods from China for paper from America is good. But in the long run, in the future, they may no longer be willing to buy our paper and interest rates will go up. No one would argue we are worse off for not making TVs here in America. But that won’t last forever.” Care for a bond? In rocky times, bonds are historically seen as low-yield, but safe, investments and the first investment option above stuffing the mattress with cash. McCain said in the current climate they remain the investment of choice for those skittish about stocks and real estate. Those who own bonds to the exclusion of a balanced portfolio, however, may be in for a comeuppance. “Bond funds can clearly go down in value,” McCain said. “When people begin to see the value of their bond investments dropping – when they open that envelope and see their returns are not what they were – there will be a panic stage to the bond bubble. More importantly, bonds do not offer the protection and returns to get people through to retirement. A major feature of this recovery has been the amount of household wealth that has funneled into bonds.” As confidence increases, equities will become more desirable, he said, with the young tending toward the accumulation of wealth and the old seeking its preservation. “Four years ago we were pounding the table,” McCain said. “That has ended. We’re well along in this recovery cycle, but there remains a lot of fear.” He produced a graph supporting the long-term wisdom of stock investment. “Is this the ideal buying time? No. But maximum fear can lead to maximum opportunity. The reason to buy is in the long term you will do well.”

Are My Sales People Too Comfortable?
I know that a productive sales force is one of the keys to our success. It’s time for them to put things in gear. I worry that things may be too comfortable around here. Any suggestions?
Good news is that there is a sales team in place. Any company looking to grow has to have people in place to help bring in new business. Now it’s time to figure out what your company needs. Put your sales people on a mission. Compare the payoff of sales to the cost of acquisition. Here’s an example of how to calculate a sales goal. • Let’s say that the sales person costs $100,000, including salary and benefits, travel costs, desk, phone, manager’s time, etc. • Assume that the company’s gross profit is 60 percent of revenue. • Assign a minimum standard multiple of 3 times cost to what a sales person should bring in. • Multiply sales person’s cost of $100,000 x 3 (minimum standard multiple) = $300,000. • Divide the $300,000 by the company’s
gross profit of 60 percent to get a revenue goal = $500,000 minimum revenue sales goal. • Compare that to what sales people in your company and industry are already producing today – is that high, low or in the ballpark? • Adjust the goal up if you think there’s room to produce more. Resist the temptation to bring the goal down to make it more realistic. If you’re not making money on your sales people’s efforts, you have to figure out what else to do. Now work backward. What’s an average sale for your company? Divide the minimum revenue sales goal by the average sale. That’s the number of sales per year this sales person has to produce. Wondering how many sales people you need? Figure out the company’s overall sales target for the year. Deduct the amount of revenue that will just roll in the door from existing clients, from the website, any other non sales-force-related activities. The remainder is what the sales force has to bring on board. Divide by the minimum revenue sales goal per person. That’s the number of sales people you’ll need, if all sales people are just hitting
minimum performance. Want to break through to more than minimum performance? There’s real value in giving people challenges. Gather your sales team to brainstorm how they could kick sales into high gear. When measuring and managing people it’s best to know how high to set the performance bar. Take a look at what people on the sales team have produced in previous years. Find out what competitors demand of their sales personnel. Take a look at how sales conditions have changed over the past few years. For many companies the sales cycle has gotten longer. The number of sales per sales person has also gone down as sales people spend more time nurturing potential sales along a longer path to close. That’s lost opportunity, unless you can shorten the sales cycle. Is there anyone on the team who seems to be getting any performance breakthrough? What can be done to model their behavior, attitude and skills? Maybe it’s time for some sales training. Everyone gets rusty. Getting into a structure to exercise and build sales skills could be exactly what the sales team needs to get

their game on. Make it clear what you expect. Make sure people know you’re watching what’s going on. Put performance reports in a place where everyone can see what’s going on. Don’t hesitate to make changes if someone isn’t trying. Ask people to make incremental performance improvements. Increase sales results a little each month. Push for one more sales call, one more prospect, one more referral request. They’ll add up over the course of the year.

Westchester biotech companies report 1Q losses BY JOHN GOLDEN jgolden@westfairinc.com
T
wo publicly traded companies in Westchester County’s growing biotechnology industry reported firstquarter losses this month. Despite a sluggish start to the first quarter, officials at Acorda Therapeutics Inc. in Ardsley said the biotechnology company is still on track to record net sales of $285 million to $315 million this year for its drug Ampyra. The drug is prescribed to improve walking in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). Dr. Ronald Cohen, founding president and CEO of Acorda, told investors that the company now has in its pipeline five compounds in clinical stage development or
being prepared for review by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. The company reported a net loss of $1.1 million, or 3 cents per share, in the first quarter, compared with first-quarter net income of $7.8 million in 2012. Acorda netted revenue of $62.3 million from first quarter sales of Ampyra, compared with $57.4 million for the same quarter in 2012. Ampyra sales through March 31 this year were down from the fourth quarter last year, a dip that Cohen attributed to recurring seasonal factors. They included patients switching insurance plans at the start of the year, causing delays in prescription refills; fourth-quarter inventory stocking by the specialty pharmacies to which Acorda ships its product, and increased dis-

counts and allowances for Medicare patients entering the so-called “donut hole” of prescription drug coverage at the start of 2013. Ampyra sales rebounded strongly in March and continued to rise in April, Cohen noted. Net revenue from the company’s Zanaflex capsules and tablets – used to treat spasticity in MS and other neurological patients – dropped by more than half to $4.4 million in the first quarter, down from $9.8 million in the first quarter last year. The launch of a generic version of the drug in January 2012 has sent sales of Acorda’s brand plummeting. Cohen said the company plans to proceed with a clinical development program for Ampyra’s use to improve walking in post-stroke patients. The decision was based on recently announced data from a proof-ofconcept trial that showed walking improved in patients with post-stroke deficits who took

the drug in extended-release tablets. The company also has in its pipeline a promising monoclonal antibody, rHlgM22, for treating MS. Acorda in April enrolled the first participant in a Phase 1 study of the drug. The company in March released data from its first clinical trial of a drug used to treat patients with heart failure. Acorda officials said the company closed the first quarter in a strong financial position with cash, cash equivalents and short-term and long-term investments of $324.9 million.
Progenics sees year-to-year drug sales dip Progenics Pharmaceuticals Inc. this month reported a first-quarter net loss of $11.3 million, or 22 cents per share. Officials at the biotechnology company in Greenburgh said a $1.8 million decrease in total expenses for the quarter lowered the oncology-focused drug developer’s net loss from $13.1 million, or 39 cents per share, in the first quarter of 2012. Progenics in January acquired Molecular Insight Pharmaceuticals Inc., a clinical-stage private biotechnology company headquartered in Cambridge, Mass., in an all-stock transaction. The Massachusetts company has a development pipeline of targeted radiotherapy and molecular imaging compounds aimed at enhancing treatment of prostate cancer and other cancers. Progenics officials said employee layoffs, primarily at Molecular Insight, resulted in a first quarter restructuring charge of approximately $1.5 million. Worldwide net sales of Relistor, the company’s first marketed drug for terminally ill patients, were up 47 percent from the fourth quarter last year, but declined 37 percent from the first-quarter of 2012. Progenics received first-quarter royalty income of approximately $1.16 million on Relistor sales from Salix Pharmaceuticals Ltd., the licensed developer and marketer of the drug used to relieve opioid-induced constipation in cancer patients. First-quarter royalties were down $677,000 or 37 percent from the first quarter last year. That drop in sales income was by $853,000 in first-quarter collaboration revenue, up from $291,00 in the first quarter of 2012, and research grants totaling $198,000, up from $86,000 in grants revenue in the first quarter of 2012. Total first-quarter revenue of approximately $2.3 million matched the company’s first-quarter revenue a year ago. Progenics ended the first quarter with approximately $55.3 million in cash and cash equivalents, compared with approximately $58.4 million at the close of the first quarter last year.

How to relocate your company more easily and inexpensively
BY MARc viGGiANO AND STEvE viGGiANO
M
oving your business – even if it is a small one – is a big job. But you can make your move far easier and less expensive with thorough planning and by hiring the right moving company to assist you. We’re focusing here on how to move your furniture and equipment efficiently and cost effectively, because that’s what we know best. But before we get to the physical move, here are a few general suggestions based on more than a decade of experience. if possible, start planning at least three months ahead. That should give you time to consider all parts of the move. Do you want to move all of your furniture and equipment or might this be a good time to replace some of it? Get or make a floor plan of your new space with accurate measurements and note where all furniture and equipment are to be placed. Measure your furniture and equipment so you know it fits where you want it. Give a copy of this plan to your mover. You may need to consult with electricians, IT professionals, phone and data services providers, lighting designers and others to prepare your new space. Coordinating this well ahead of moving day will avoid inefficiencies and save you money. Now about the physical move. consider moving over a weekend. That way you may reduce or eliminate downtime during regular business hours. It works best to have your employees empty, pack and unpack the contents of their own desks, closets and bookcases. A good moving company will give you written packing tips and have the boxes and materials needed to move everything safely. We recommend emptying filing cabinets. Their thin metal construction may not stand up to moving. Lock them and tape the drawers closed as a precaution against accidental opening. Make sure everything is clearly labeled where it is to go. Also label everything that will not be moved. Professional movers will provide labels and labeling instructions. If you have leased equipment, check with the lessor to see if they prefer to move the equipment or for any special moving instructions. If you are moving classified or sensitive information, extremely heavy objects, items of exceptional value or anything out of the ordinary, discuss it with your movers early on. You may need to make special arrangements for these things.
Don’t wait until the last minute to look for a moving firm. Give yourself time to check them out so you are comfortable with your decision. Make sure to completely discuss with them everything you want them to do so they can have the right manpower, equipment and materials to move you safely and efficiently. Also don’t be shy about asking their advice. They have way more moving experience than you do. Here’s a checklist for hiring your movers. • Are they licensed? • Do they charge by the piece or by the hour? • Do they have a minimum charge? How do they charge after the minimum is met-in 15-minute increments or every half hour? • Do they have extra charges for larger items or for flights of stairs? • Do they charge for travel time from your office to your business? • Do they charge extra for moves in the evenings or on weekends? • What payment options do they have? (Many moving companies require a deposit.) • Do they have full-time employees or use temps and day labor? (Be cautious of companies that use temps or day labor because they may not be properly trained and insured.) • Do they carry worker’s compensation for their employees? • What kinds of training have their movers and drivers completed? • Are your items insured during the move? (Even if a mover is bonded and insured, that doesn’t mean your items are covered during the move. Some states require a company to put a valuation of 60¢ per pound of coverage.) • What kind of cancellation policy do they offer? (You should always be able to cancel or postpone until a few days before your move.) • Do they offer free moving quotes? (We recommend getting an estimate for all business moves.) • Do they offer suggestion on how to make your move easier? (Movers that really care about customer service will do all they can to help you.) • Do they have a contact number for the day of the move should any challenges arise? With thorough planning and the assistance of a professional moving company, your business relocation can be made smoothly and with minimum downtime and expense.

Time Spent Online
A
n article in The New York Times involving the decline in the average amount of time that TV is viewed in the U.S. caught my eye. This decline is particularly noteworthy with traditional TV. Not surprisingly, it largely disappears when online factors are included. Nielsen, the ratings company best known for audience measurements involving television programs, believes that Americans are “voracious video viewers.” Or to put it another way, Americans will continue to spend many hours of their day watching videos or some form of entertainment – it may just no longer be network television. According to a 2013 Interactive Advertising Bureau study, social media and online video registered the largest growth in the amount of time spent online by consumers. (Increases in email, using search and online games were the next three largest areas of growth.) This rapid growth reflects the enormous increases in video
content and social media activity that are rapidly changing the digital landscape. Interestingly, social media is also playing an increasingly important role in the selection of what to watch both online and on TV. Recommendations, comments from social sites and advertisements have a big impact on both the TV shows people recommend and their online availability. In fact, friends, relatives and word-ofmouth were responsible for how 49 percent of all viewers learned about online shows. This is a critical facet of social media: the ability to inform and influence others. Well before the Internet became a reality, Zagat was a trusted and well-regarded review of New York City restaurants. People put a lot of credence in these reviews – which also explains why restaurants and food have the highest percentage of online reviewers. These reviews can greatly affect the number of customers and subsequent business that a restaurant does. Reviews in different areas also extend to

electronics and many other products, even automobiles. A couple of years ago, I was in the market for a new notebook. When I went to the fan page of a large manufacturer of notebooks, I read so many negative reviews and vituperative remarks about their products that I decided to purchase a notebook from another manufacturer. When creating a social media campaign, there are a few lessons that can be discerned from my previous paragraphs. First, make sure your social media campaigns are applicable to your audience. Recommendations and comments are only effective if they are consistent with your product or offering. If they are not, you may rapidly lose credibility. second, use video or snippets from a webinar where possible. Pictures can also be effective. People are greatly influenced by imagery. third, word-of-mouth can be very powerful. Just remember that it can be positive or negative.
BY BRucE NEWMAN
Here’s one final question and thought concerning TV and the recently reported “precipitous” drop in ratings for the major networks, even for shows that are big hits. What is one of the networks’ biggest threats? The answer is: local markets and the easy accessibility of quality content from multiple platforms. That’s very similar to what most businesses regularly face: competition. While I do not equate the networks with your business, just realize that many of the solutions you utilize to market your company and services are very similar to the actions of the major networks, just on a different scale. Social media is truly one of the great equalizers of both company size and the amount of time spent online.

DEALS &DEEDS Newmark bolsters suburban team
Newmark Grubb Knight Frank (NGKF) has added three real estate industry veterans to its operations in Westchester County and Fairfield County, Conn. The company announced the hiring of Jacqueline Durels as senior managing director and Tim Rorick and Jodie LaRocque as managing directors. Durels moved to NGKF from Colliers International in Stamford, Conn. As a landlord representative, she brought with her several agency assignments in Connecticut, including NC Land Co.’s approximately 42,000-square-foot 50 Locust Ave, property in New Canaan and The Mill, a 110,000-squarefoot office and retail complex in western Greenwich owned by Mill Management. Durels in her career has completed more than 100 deals with an aggregate value of more than $480 million, according to NGKF. Greenwich tenants she has represented include Blyth Inc., Richman Group, and Greenwich Associates in each of their 30,000-square-foot leases and Imperial Bank in its 20,000-square-foot lease. In Stamford, she represented BPG Properties and secured the buyer in the $38.5 million sale of 1010 Washington Boulevard to SL Green Realty Inc. Rorick also joined KGKF from Colliers International in Stamford, where he was senior managing director. He has negotiated more than 100 deals valued at more than $100 million. They include Stamford Hospital’s 52,000-square-foot lease at 1351 Washington Blvd. Since joining Newmark, Rorick was named by Normandy Real Estate Partners as exclusive leasing agent for Darien Green, a two-building, 114,000-square-foot property in Darien, Conn. LaRocque previously was vice president at Barclays Capital, formerly Lehman Brothers, where she managed leasing transactions for the company’s New York headquarters and its more than 3 millionsquare-foot U.S. portfolio. Before that, she was vice president and Northeast region portfolio manager at Bank of America, overseeing a 10-million-squarefoot portfolio, including more than 3,000 retail locations, and construction of the company’s midtown Manhattan headquarters.

gov. andrew cuomo announced a commitment of $60 million to grow New York’s tourism industry at the first New York State Tourism Summit in Albany May 8. Food, ads, greeters and a push for the gay community’s travel dollars are on the playbill. The money was approved in the April fiscal-year budget as part of the “New York State Open for Business” ad campaign that was itself budgeted for $140 million, according to Cuomo spokesman rich azzopardi. Tourism is New York’s fifth largest employment sector, supporting 714,000 jobs and generating more than $29 billion in wages. New York attracts more than 202 million visitors each year, generating $57 billion in direct tourism spending and $7 billion in state and local taxes, according to the governor’s office. Cuomo said the state will have on-site greeters and welcome centers at New York airports, with Delta Airlines featuring “I Love New York” advertisements in its in-flight magazine. “I Love New York” signs will be posted at airports, including Stewart Airport in Orange County. Welcome centers will be set up at border and interstate crossings. “Taste NY” products
will be sold there and at thruway rest stops. The campaign will go global, with ads in China and Brazil and at sites throughout Asia and Latin America. Cuomo said the state will launch a specific campaign targeting the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community. LGBT tourism allegedly accounts for $70 billion in tourism spending annually in the U.S. The governor also announced the creation of a sports and events commission to seek business in those fields. In the 2012-13 fiscal year, the state spent $19 million promoting tourism.

Ulwick continues, “Motorola was able to optimize a mobile radio product for each segment. The products included new features that addressed previously underserved outcomes, and eliminated product features that addressed outcomes that were not important to that specific population.” For those that wanted to communicate privately, discreetly or covertly, Motorola included enhanced encryption and features to prevent others from overhearing as well as noiseless operation. For those leaving their vehicles and dealing with life-threatening situations, Motorola added emergency locators, modified the interface to accommodate users wearing gloves and voice command technology. For the segment involved in managing team and work assignments the company added features to ensure messages were received and made it easier to program the radio. As a result Motorola and Southwest developed better products and services at a lower price, and greatly increased customer satisfaction. How? Each company asked the customer want they wanted and you can too. Like Southwest, you may choose to serve only one ‘customer segment’ or, like Motorola, you may have multiple ‘segments.’ By focusing on unique needs or underserved outcomes in specific segments you’ll deliver products or services that provide more value than anywhere else.

outhwest Airlines founder Herb Kelleher knew the company was in trouble when his sister-in-law raved that she had received magnificent service on a Southwest flight. He asked how many people were onboard. Two pilots, three flight attendants… and his sister-in-law. After 18 months of operation, the airline had lost more than $5 million. Southwest was forced to ask, “What is our competitive advantage? Where can we add more value than anyone else? Southwest executives decided that they wouldn’t try to be all things to all people and would not copy competitors by flying everywhere they did and ‘segmenting’ customers by offering first class, business class and coach. Having said that, specific types of segmentation could double your business. How and where can you add more value than anyone else? Southwest chose to implement a winning market “segmentation” strategy by providing the best service and lowest fares for only the short-distance, frequent-flying, point-topoint traveler It was a segment no one else had yet claimed. Southwest found out what customers wanted and what was missing, by asking them. In “Crafting the Customer Experience for People Not Like You,” author Kelly McDonald says, “People are not ‘one size fits all,’ and therefore, one sweeping customer service approach isn’t going to cut it when it comes to satisfying, much less delighting a diverse group of customers.” McDonald continues, “Parents think about and value everything differently from people who are not parents. That difference has nothing to do with race, ethnicity, age or even gender; it simply has to do with whether or not a person has children.” So how can you render better customer service to a diverse group of customers? In his book, “What Customers Want,” author Anthony W. Ulwick describes how Motorola accelerated revenue growth by analyzing ‘desired’ customers’ outcomes and found three underserved segments. Police and other security personnel who conducted ‘covert’ operations from inside a vehicle and who wanted mobile radio products that communicated privately and discreetly, without being noticed by others or overheard, were No.1. Other police, security personnel and firefighters often had to leave their vehicles to perform assignments and wanted products

challenging careers

Always a cop at heart, he chases his dream
HV
An electric eavesdropping detection machine assists private investigator Leonard Golino.
A
s a private investigator headquartered in Newburgh and working nationwide, Leonard Golino not only helps solve crimes, he also has a hand in preventing them. Founder and president of Gold Shield Elite Investigations L.L.C., Golino is immersed in his third career. “I always wanted to be a cop,” he confides, looking back on his Bronx childhood. Earning an associate in business administration degree from Bronx Community College, he studied at the John Hancock Institute in Boston, becoming, at
age 24, the youngest individual in John Hancock management. But, the urge to become a cop lingered. He took a 50-percent salary cut to launch his police career in New York City and was eventually promoted to detective and earned the coveted Gold Shield designation from which his firm derives its name. Working with his cousin, Richard DeMaio, and a team of 20 to 25 part-time investigators hired on a per diem basis according to their specialties, Golino screens nannies, home care aides, prospective ten-

ants, job applicants; investigates personal injury cases, vehicle accidents, suspected infidelity and even does premarital and Internet dating screening. He recalls a case of nanny investigation with a happy ending that could have wound up a tragedy. “Newspaper headlines across America too often tell stories of child care providers guilty of abuse, identity theft or even kidnapping,” he points out. “A woman psychologist had been asked by her husband to contact an investigator to check on a nanny they planned to engage. The nanny was hired, but I was not contacted until three months later. She was performing well, but the husband asked the wife one night at dinner what the investigator had said. She admitted to never contacting me, noting that, as a psychologist, she could read people well. The husband insisted that I be contacted.” Golino shudders as he recalls his findings. “I don’t just check employment background, but relatives, family make-up, financial problems,” he explained. “In this case she had given invalid addresses, had serious financial problems and domestic issues where she was the agitator. If she had stayed, trouble could
have erupted.” He went on to check on the nanny’s proposed replacement. “She came back squeaky clean,” he reports with delight. He finds himself cast into the role of a counselor in cases in which marital infidelity is confirmed. “There are decisions to be made,” he notes. “It is difficult when children are involved. I point the clients toward a counselor or an attorney to help them with the transition.” Golino believes that an investment in tenant screening saves landlords in the long run. “Without tenant background check, thousands of dollars can be lost in rental income and property damage,” he says. “It is important to know if they have moved frequently. Typically in a scam a tenant starts off as a model renter, but within several months the rents start to become lax and delinquent, followed by a series of excuses as to why payments are late. The next thing you know, months have gone by and you have to start the eviction process, sometimes making costly repairs and you begin the rental process all over again. “Like landlords, employers can become victims,” he says. “Background checks of potential employees avoid such problems as thefts and workplace violence.”

MC Energy takes pulse of green market Growing interest for data-driven analysis
Margaret Carey, founder and president, MC Energy Services
BY SAM BARRON sbarron@westfairinc.com
W
hen New York deregulated its energy market in 1999, Margaret Carey knew it was time to go on her own. Carey that year started MC Energy Services L.L.C., an energy services consulting company she initially operated out of her Cross River basement and now from an office in Valhalla. Carey helps her commercial clients navigate the deregulated
market and find the best energy company for them. “Our job is to understand how to use energy,” said Carey, who has about 200 clients throughout the country. “It’s all about data. We are constantly tracking the market.” MC Energy developed systems to track the carbon footprint of clients to ensure they use energy efficiently. Many of her clients own and lease properties and want to be as lean and green as possible.
“Corporations want to know how sustainable they are and what their carbon footprint is,” Carey said. “We track all their paper, cardboard, their miles system. We track how often they use mass transit, ride their bikes. Anything that has a carbon tag, we have a system that tracks it.” Carey completed graduate school as the country endured the twin 1970s oil crises. After writing her thesis on Consolidated Edison Inc. she landed a job at Cushman & Wakefield Inc., where she worked in finance. When New York deregulated, she was ahead of the curve and decided it was time to start her own business. “With great confusion comes great opportunity,” Carey said. “People wanted to know what deregulation was. How do I navigate it? What are the risks and opportunities?” Carey said embracing deregulation meant energy companies embraced the environmental movement, and companies were incentivized to reduce their carbon footprints and produce cleaner-burning power plants. “In New York people were incentivized to switch from Con Edison and NYSEG (New York State Electric and Gas Corp.) and shop for an alternative supplier,” Carey said. “You’d be plum dumb not to. If you were given a tax incentive or tax abatement, you should shop.” The energy market is very volatile, said Carey, particularly the electric market. “We navigate those markets,” Carey said. “We match a pricing product to the risk preferences and operational preferences of those companies. If a company truly wants to save money, it’s going to be riding the market.” Carey said it is important to always monitor the weather, which is uncontrollable, and legislative issues. In 2015, 8 percent of all coal-burning plants will shudder, which will impact pricing. In supply-constrained territories like Westchester and Fairfield, Conn., counties, electric rates will likely increase. “We figure out what’s coming down and we attempt to mitigate the risk,”
Carey said. “We’re supposed to be the smartest people in the room.” People have become more environmentally conscious over the last 10 years, Carey said, as concerns grow about climate change. “People track their energy usage,” Carey said. “Ten years ago, nobody had a sustainability department or worried about carbon footprint. Now there are organizations reporting on it.” In Europe, a company’s carbon component can impact its stock price. People everywhere are embracing green. Carey said tenants will pay more to be in a LEED-certified building that embraces sustainability and recycling. “You need to be more energy efficient than the guy across the street,” Carey said. “Owners are embracing it and tenants are sharper. Young people want to work with companies doing good. Right now, being energy efficient is good business. We’ll see if that is sustainable.” Since the market collapse in fall 2008, energy prices have trended downward. The energy market dropped 45 percent, bottoming out in April 2012, with prices remaining stable since then. Carey doesn’t think that is built to last. “It was great for consumers, but I see prices starting to rise,” Carey said. “I don’t think we will see the tremendous increases we saw eight years ago, but there will be an increase.” The unknown factor is natural gas. The U.S. has the largest supply of natural gas, though how to extract it has become a hot-button issue that does not look to be resolved soon. Many environmentalists oppose hydrofracking of gas-rich shale. Hydrofracking is not currently permitted in New York; Pennsylvania has embraced it. “It’s an interesting twist to what’s going on,” Carey said. Carey said everyone should be out in the market buying energy now and should be aggressive in case the market becomes volatile. “Even if you have a contract that goes through the end of the year, buy now for 2014-2015,” Carey said.

One family, 50 years, untold enemies BILL FALLON
Pest control outfit battles the unwanted across three generations
HV
Ed Binns outside his new Mahopac office.
BY Bill FAllON bfallonwestfairinc.com
A
few headlines come to mind after a conversation with Ed Binns: Invasion of the Keystone stink-
bugs! My day in a rat-filled crawlspace! The headlines are true, but they serve to obscure the larger picture, one that dates to 1963 and involves Mahopac-based All County Pest Control and three generations of the Binns family: founder and father William; Ed, who took over in 1993; and now Ed’s two children: 19-year-old Colleen, and 16-year-old summertime worker Brian. Binns works only in New York. Having mastered and kept abreast of New York’s regulations,
“The standardized solution was to take Long Island soil data and wildlife data and apply it to the state,” Binns said. The problem with that, he said, is Long Island’s soil is sandy, which does not suspend chemicals, but rather shunts them quickly to aquifers, the source of 100 percent of Long Island’s water. Termites and Temik help explain the difference between Mahopac and Montauk. On Long Island, Binns said, termites are a big problem. “They can plow right through the sandy soil,” he said. “We don’t have a big termite problem here. They have a tough time getting through the soil.” Binns also knew of Temik, the Rhone-Poulenc brand pesticide the EPA set about banning in 2010 – with the ban to be complete by 2017 – but which was banned on Long Island in 1980 for the same reasons termites love it: sandy soil. “The National Pest Management Association has been active on this issue, but New York is still the most regulated state,” said Binns. All County handles most pests and scales, working for businesses and private homes. “The only thing we don’t do are schools,” he said. “They have a nonchemical policy.” Most pests are in All County’s crosshairs. For bats, however, Binns calls a specialist; same
he said, “We expanded north-south into Westchester – we’ll go as far south as Scarsdale – and into southern Dutchess instead of east-west into other states.” He bristles politely at New York’s regulatory burden while stating forthrightly: “We see and understand the need for regulations.” Binns’ state Department of Environmental Conservation certificates are for structural and rodent; termite; food processing; public health; aquatic insect; aquatic plant; ornamental turf and a separate DEC-issued nuisance wildlife trapping license. “New York is considered the worst state for regulations,” he said. “Particularly in our region, we have a lot of groundwater regulations. A lot of our water supplies the population of New York City.

with honeybees, which are collected by beekeepers. Raccoons and squirrels are trapped. He would prefer not to do snakes. Carpenter ants – the big black ones – wasps and yellow jackets constitute his three biggest pests. As he spoke recently, Binns said he was investigating regulations for cicadas – due for their 17-year din beginning now – and stinkbugs. Stinkbugs reportedly landed in Allentown, Pa., in 1998 from the Orient and have been fanning out ever since. “The epicenter is Pennsylvania, but they’re moving out in all directions,” Binns said. “We get them, though not at Pennsylvania levels.” A stinkbug seminar could be on the horizon: “They’re crafty,” he said. “And they have pesticide resistance already.” All County now boasts six employees, a spanking new office next to the old one at 5 Veschi Lane South and four company vehicles. As for the job he dreads most, it is surprisingly not the squeaking Norway rats Binns has encountered – even en masse in a tight crawlspace – or the hissing Virginia possums. “Bed bugs,” he said. “Fortunately, they’re not huge in our market. We are a residential, middle- and high-class area. No hotels. We’re really mild with bed bugs and that’s fine. I don’t enjoy them.”

GOOD happening In and THINGS about the hudson valley Better leaders, better communities Leadership Orange, now in its 20th year, will accept applications through June 1 for its 2014 leadership-training program. Launched in 1993 by community and business leaders to train new and emerging leaders, the program has developed into a multidimensional training program for both adults and youth. Over a 10-month period, class participants receive training on topics important to Orange County residents and businesses, including education, health and human services, communications, government and politics, the environment, culture and recreation, economic development, leadership development and the judicial system. The training enables community members to better understand the challenges facing the county and thereby better serve the community. More than 575 women and men have graduated from the Leadership Orange adult program since its inception. Classes meet on the first Wednesday of each month from September through June. The full-day program includes presentations, role-playing and roundtable discussions. Candidates and nominations are welcome from all walks of life and all age groups over 18 years. Leadership Orange requires that candidates must: • Have prior leadership exposure; • Express a willingness to volunteer for community projects, boards of directors or elected offices as a graduate; • Must live or work in Orange County; • Demonstrate evidence of creativity; and • Demonstrate effective communication skills. “It is very important to identify and prepare new leadership for our community. The more connected you are to the county, the more influence you will have on what the region becomes. Leadership Orange provides you with inside information on how the county works while at the same time connecting you with some of Orange County’s top leaders,” said Michael Flynn, of M&T Bank, chairman of the Selection Committee for Leadership Orange. Class size is limited to 36 participants. The tuition for the 2013-2014 Leadership Orange program of $1,100 covers all costs, including meals and all course materials. Tuition is due upon acceptance into the program and is nonrefundable. Applications are open to the public and individuals from all sectors are encouraged to apply. Call (845) 4571550, ext. 3107, for applications and more information or email Karolyn Osborne Thompson at Karolyn@leadershiporange.org.
Wednesday to Monday noon to 6 p.m. and Beacon Second Saturday noon to 9 p.m. Diebboll’s photographs include some of Stoney Point and old restored images of Beacon and its surrounding area. Judson’s paintings in the show were recently discovered and restored. A master print maker and photographer, Diebboll says, “All of the images that I photographed in this show have been blended with textures from old photos that were printed in the 1860s-1870s. … I like the fact that the textures I am currently using come in part from the Hudson Highland sky that was photographed 150 years ago.” Judson (1876 – 1948) is one of Beacon’s earliest famous painters, with a career that flourished in the ’20s and ’30s. She studied under John Henry Twachtman at the Art Students League in New York City, and had a delightful impressionistic style with scenes of long ago, but you could almost step into them today. In cleaning out the family-home attic, Linda Hubbard, co-owner of RiverWinds Gallery, found Judson’s paintings. Many of them were rolled canvases in a box, others grouped together in piles. Artist Paul Gould of Cornwallon-Hudson, restored the paintings. For more information, call (845) 838-2880 or visit riverwindsgallery.com.

Recognizing his pivotal role in moving the Walkway Over the Hudson State Historic Park from an unlikely hope to a spectacular success, Rails-to-Trails Conservancy has named Poughkeepsie’s Fred Schaeffer its Doppelt Family Rail-Trail Champion for 2013. Schaeffer now joins a select group of men and women from across America who have made a remarkable contribution to the rail-trail movement during the past quarter century. It is group that includes current U.S. Department of Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood; founders of New York’s High Line, Joshua David and Robert Hammond; former Minnesota Congressman James Oberstar; and the late Fred Meijer, founder of the Fred Meijer Trails Network. “Though there were certainly a number of people who worked hard and often behind the scenes, to bring the
Walkway to fruition, Fred Schaeffer was an enduring, vital presence throughout its development,” said Rails-to-Trails Conservancy President Keith Laughlin. “This is especially evident when you speak with the people of Poughkeepsie. Many are not ashamed to say they had their doubts about Fred’s ambitious plan for the bridge, but are happy to admit he proved them wrong with his determination and commitment to the project. Fred knew it would be a tremendous asset and attraction for Poughkeepsie and for the region and he was right.” “I applaud Rails to Trails’ decision to give Fred Schaeffer this prestigious award,” said Elizabeth Waldstein-Hart, executive director of Walkway Over the Hudson. “Fred’s determination and vision galvanized a true grassroots effort that led to the creation of the world-class park we now call Walkway Over the Hudson State Historic Park. Nearly 2 million people have visited Walkway State Park since it opened in October 2009, clearly demonstrating the Walkway’s powerful and lasting impact upon all of us.” The Doppelt family, for whom the award is named, rose to prominence as early investors in rail companies, including the Burlington Northern, Florida East Coast, Missouri Pacific, Penn Central, Union Pacific and the Western Maryland, and has been a long and generous supporter of Rails-to-Trails Conservancy’s efforts to protect and promote the historical and natural resources represented by America’s rail corridors.

Delaware Valley Arts Alliance, the Arts Council for Sullivan County, will be on view through June 8. Viewing hours are Tuesday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. “I extract from literature and personal stories to depict universal themes, such as life and death,” says artist Hart of her collage and assemblage paintings. “I select and arrange various components and then bring them together with paint until I am satisfied with the composition. This blending of papers and paint enhances the visual mystery I strive to express.” Working with conceptual or symbolic images, Hart often depicts body parts, particularly hands or eyes, to express an idea or emotion. “The ambiguous nature of most of my pieces is my invitation to viewers to become actively engaged in interpreting the work.” Hart’s national award-winning work has been exhibited across the United States and at international venues. Hart has lived in the upper Delaware River Valley with her husband Howie for almost 25 years. For more information about the exhibit, call (845) 2527576 or visit ArtsAllianceSite.org.
