Plant one here Yonkers roots again for Boyce Thompson site BY JOHN GOLDEN jgolden@westfairinc.com

he city of Yonkers has parted ways with one developer and seeks another as first-year Mayor Mike Spano continues to push for redevelopment of long-vacant and deteriorating relics of the city’s industrial past. The city this month issued a request for proposals (RFP) from developers interested in acquiring the former

Boyce Thompson Institute for Plant Research property at 1086 N. Broadway to redevelop for commercial uses. The 6-acre property, which adjoins the South Westchester Executive Park, comes with a 60,000-square-foot, twostory brick Georgian Revival building built in 1930 by Yonkers resident William Boyce Thompson and several glass-shattered greenhouses.

estchester County businesses left in the dark for days or weeks by Hurricane Sandy will be “catching up” this holiday season on lost work hours and billings, a business leader in the county predicted. And three governor-appointed commissions will spend the rest of the year examining how New York can improve its infrastructure and emergency preparedness before another major storm wreaks disaster in the state. At Bridge Street Properties, a 205,000-square-foot commercial and retail development in the former Lord & Burnham factory complex on the Hudson River in Irvington, “I think that we are one of the only businesses open right now,” said Connie Leonardis, office manager at Sloane Stecker Physical Therapy P.C. More than three weeks after the surging river stormed over seawalls and left four feet of water in ground-floor offices, retail stores and restaurants in the red brick complex, tenants large and small are still replacing or repairing ruined furnishings, equipment and inventory. Bridge Street companies employ about 750 workers, according to an Irvington village trustee. A prominent tenant, the 14-employee Eileen Fisher Lab Store at 1 Bridge St. “will not open for at least another month,” said Kerri Devaney, spokeswoman for the women’s fashion clothing company. She said a roughly four-foot by four-foot pane of glass on the Irvington storefront “was actually pushed out” in the flood. “It did not break. It floated through the store and landed on a couch.” The pane has been reinstalled in its proper setting. Devaney said ground-floor operations at 2 Bridge St., where Eileen Fisher has manufacturing and back office operations, will reopen early next year. Some of the building’s 165 employees are working in mezzanine space and a converted Catching up, page 6

After storm waters recede, Piermont’s cleanup proceeds

BY MARY SHUSTACK mshustack@westfairinc.com

hough the surging storm waters have receded from the restaurants, shops and small businesses in Piermont’s business district, the devastating effects of Hurricane Sandy remain clearly visible. A walk through the Hudson riverside community on the morning of Nov. 16 yielded glimpses of the destruction’s lingering effects. Some shops remained without power. Others had furniture and equipment, thoroughly trashed by the storm, piled up outside. Signs posted in windows offered status reports and contact details. And as Piermont Avenue stretched north, a storm-tossed boat was still encroaching a portion of the road. Destruction was felt at many spots along the Hudson River shoreline in Rockland County, including nearby Nyack, also hit hard. There, The River Club restaurant had a sailboat come right through several windows with strong winds and rushing flood waters causing even more structural damage. (The restaurant has managed to reopen.) The Nyack Boat Club and the Nyack Marina were among other

sites also heavily damaged. In Piermont, damage was concentrated and widespread, touching most everyone in this tight-knit artistic enclave and tourist destination. Countless basements of businesses, which housed stock, equipment and most often, power sources, were flooded. Inventory on selling floors was ruined, while extended power outages also led to loss of perishables. Officials from varied agencies and assorted politicians have toured the community, securing and bringing help. A storm leading right into the year-end selling season, though, was a particularly tough element. “Everyone is disappointed, clearly, as this is a very important time,” said Laura Straus, a member of the Piermont Business Council and owner of Piermont Straus gallery. She said the storm has underlined the camaraderie found here but also the need to forge ahead with creating a chamber of commerce to continue to move forward. “I do feel that in the most basic ways our focus will be to build that community and make it stronger, make it thrive and give

back to the community,” Straus said. “I don’t think there’s any business owner who deeply doesn’t love this village.” Luring shoppers and diners back to town will be another challenge. Chris Ham, whose family operates The Community Market, finally got his power back a few days earlier. A generator had allowed him to run a floodlight on the main floor, as the basement was being worked on. As he now waited for a visit from his insurance-company representative, he talked about hard it will be to bounce back. “As you can see, it’s pretty dead,” he said. “It’s going to take a while, probably like a few more months. Lynne Aubrey, who has owned Aubrey Flowers in two locations on Piermont Avenue since 1995, had to replace her flowerand-gift shop’s flooring, repaint and replace much of her merchandise. “We were able to get back in (Oct. 31) but it was pretty disgusting. … We had to wait for it to dry out,” she said of the mud, sewage and flood waters now all cleaned away. As she unwrapped merchandise and re-stocked the retail space, she echoed that the storm’s timing has proven especially troubling. “Most small businesses rely on Christmas for about a third of their income,” she said. “It’s all about small businesses here.” Luckily, she noted, she also has a thriving segment in doing flowers for parties and special events throughout the year, but the storm still meant a $10,000 to $20,000 hit. But this unprecedented challenge has not caused Aubrey to consider a relocation. “People keep saying ‘Why are you rebuilding?’ You can’t leave it. It can’t be a ghost town,” she said. That spirit pervades, where focus is on recovery right now. Local carpenter Mitchell Warren was hard at work outside Xaviars at Piermont and Freelance Café, the side-by-side restaurants of noted chef Peter X. Kelly. Warren’s

been tapped by a number of Piermont businesses to help with the countless construction projects that will get them back on track. Warren, who happens to live above the eateries, said the ripple effects of the storm will be felt for a very long time on both the personal and professional levels. His tools,

which were stored in space right near the river, are gone. “I’ve got to work just to replace my tools,” he said. Help has also come. While a Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Disaster Recovery Center was opened Nov. 9 at Provident Bank Park in Pomona, a satellite also opened right at Piermont Village Hall beginning Nov. 17. And in Piermont, things are slowly bouncing back. Restaurants and shops reopen, events are held. Straus says that the latest exhibition at her Piermont Straus gallery will still open Dec. 8, timed to a larger community happening. Straus said the Piermont Holiday Festival, with a tree lighting and carols set from 5 to 7 p.m. Dec. 8 at the M&T Bank, will proceed though in “an abbreviated version” – and a special visitor is set to drop in Dec. 9 when the Nyack fire department holds a pancake breakfast in South Nyack that draws many Hudson River community participants. As Straus said, “The fire company has confirmed, I believe, that Santa Claus is still coming to town.”

Extern Mackenzie Mantegazza and Corporate Chef Alison Awerbuch in the kitchen of Abigail Kirsch.

BY TARICE L.S. GRAY tgray@westfairinc.com

hen Mackenzie Mantegazza was 12 years old, she knew she loved the food industry. Her parents ran a restaurant and catering business for 42 years, and the Orange County native thrived on serving hors d’oeuvres to guests, while standing on the step stool her grandfather provided for her. “It was an adrenaline rush. A week’s worth of work for a one day payoff,” she said. That passion for food service grew. Now Mantegazza, 23, is one of a handful of externs at renowned catering company Abigail Kirsch in Tarrytown. The extern program works with eight to 10 culinary schools in the tristate area a year, and selects five externs per site. Mantegazza, a student at the Culinary Institute of America (CIA), one of the schools that works with Abigail Kirsch on the extern program, was glad to make the cut – and not just because of the reputation of the company, but because of the program itself. Although the concept of an extern is not new to the culinary industry, the Abigail Kirsch company has managed to fine tune it over the years. It’s not just a cooking program; students like Mantegazza learn prep, production, and execution of events. They also learn about the business aspect as well. “I’ve been able to work with each individual chef; I’ve even worked in the purchasing department,” said Mantegazza. “Just being on a team and seeing all the different aspects within catering, it’s really put my mind to where I want to go when I graduate (from the CIA).” As an extern, Mantegazza is paid nine

dollars per hour over the course of an 18-week stint. Alison Awerbuch, corporate chef and partner at Abigail Kirsch, said the company also hires roughly 20 percent of the students who finish the externship once they graduate from their particular culinary school. It’s a benefit the company enjoys. Hiring externs “is great for us because they’ve already learned the basics of how our kitchen operates,” said Awerbuch. That seamless grooming and subsequent hiring practice allows the brand to maintain its standard of quality and meet the expectations of its clientele. The catering business is about reputation, and Abigail Kirsch has managed to sustain an impeccable one. Awerbuch said she learned early on the importance of individuals in this industry to establish a good reputation, too. Twenty years ago Awerbuch was the only female extern with a catering company in New York, and she knew she had to prove her worth. Her hard work was rewarded: “Jean Claude, the French chef owner, started sending me to these 5th Avenue apartments to do small dinner parties by myself. It was a high compliment.” Today, the landscape of the catering industry has evolved, and Abigail Kirsch has a pretty even split of a men and women in its kitchens. Mantegazza is spending the last few weeks of her externship with the company helping with preparation and planning for the holiday party season. After it ends Mantegazza said she has high hopes of staying on. “Eventually I would like to own my own catering company, but if I find a job with Abigail Kirsch and succeed I don’t think I’d have a problem with not owning anything.”

Yonkers bribe-taker gets 6-year prison term BY JOHN GOLDEN jgolden@westfairinc.com

ormer Yonkers City Council majority leader Sandy Annabi was sentenced Monday to six years in federal prison for taking bribes to change her votes on Ridge Hill and a second development project and filing false income tax returns and loan applications. The 42-year-old Democrat also must forfeit $1.27 million and pay more than $275,000 in restitution and reimbursement for the city’s and federal prosecution’s legal fees. Her convicted co-conspirator following a seven-week trial that ended in March, former Yonkers Republican Party chairman Zehy Jereis, was sentenced to four years in prison by U.S. District Judge Colleen McMahon and ordered to forfeit about $209,500. In addition to prison terms, Jereis and Annabi will serve two years of supervised release. Annabi and the 40-year-old Jereis were each convicted of one count of conspiracy to make and accept corrupt payments; one count of conspiracy to deprive the city of Yonkers and its citizens of Annabi’s honest services; two counts of receiving corrupt payments and one count of extortion. Annabi was also convicted of three counts of making false statements to a bank and two

counts of filing false tax returns. A third defendant in the case, Anthony Mangone, a Westchester attorney active in the Democratic Party, two years ago pled guilty to conspiracy, bribery, extortion, and tax evasion charges and is awaiting sentencing.

Their sentencing “turns the page on a sordid chapter in the history of the great city of Yonkers.” — U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara

Mangone in 2006 gave Jereis $20,000 in cash to pay Annabi, a three-term council member, to drop her opposition to a redevelopment project at the city’s former Longfellow Junior High School by Yonkers developer Milio Management. The developer paid Mangone $30,000 to bribe Annabi to switch her vote on the project. Also in 2006, Annabi reversed her position on the Ridge Hill mixed-use development proposed by Forest City Ratner Cos.

IntroducIng the brIstal

shortly after two meetings with Jereis and Forest City Ratner officials. After Annabi changed her vote on a zoning change needed for the project, Jereis received a one-year consulting contract from Forest City Ratner worth $60,000. Annabi was convicted of accepting nearly $200,000 in secret payments over a five-year period from Jereis and others in exchange for her support on the city council for matters in which they had an interest. A jury also found her guilty of making false statements to financial institutions related to loans she was seeking for two houses and an apartment in Yonkers and for filing false federal income tax returns in 2005 and 2006. Annabi’s financial penalty includes a $164,461 payment to PNC Bank. U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara in a statement said their sentencing “turns the page on a sordid chapter in the history of the great city of Yonkers.”

County license waived for solar contractors BY JOHN GOLDEN jgolden@westfairinc.com

The Westchester County Board of Legislators has eased licensing requirements for contractors installing solar energy systems at homes and businesses in the county. Legislators this month approved a bill that relieves solar panel and solar heating installers and contractors from obtaining a county home improvement license before doing work. Those Westchester licenses carry a biannual fee of $300. Solar installers still will need certification from the North American Board of Certified Energy Practitioners (NABCEP). The legislation, when signed into law by County Executive Robert P. Astorino, will allow licensed electricians and plumbers in Westchester who also have NABCEP certification to offer financial incentives for solar installations.

My stress level is over the top. It’s been an up and down year with lots of unexpected, not-so-good things. Some of my employees are suffering and some of my clients are struggling. I know things are getting better, but at the moment I am reduced to feeling numb. Any coping suggestions? Thoughts of the day: Stress takes its toll on everyone. Make sure you’re taking care of yourself. Be willing to face your fears. Make a list of concerns. Talk things out. Get perspective by being involved in the world. Make time for yourself. What is the impact of stress? Things going wrong can trigger a fight-or-flight adrenaline rush. Adrenaline coursing through your body can make you feel restless and on edge. It can disrupt sleep, lead to ulcers, raise your blood pressure and make you much more intolerant. Reaction to stress also feeds a heightened

Get a handle on stress

awareness of potential threats. There’s a perception of a bogeyman around every corner. As you’re going through stressful situations, be aware that you could be more likely to react, strike out and perceive negatives. When problems arise, it’s normal to focus on dealing with the issues at hand and to forget about taking care of yourself. If you need medication, make sure you’re taking it regularly. Give your body outlets for dealing with the extra adrenaline. Get to the gym. Take a run or fast walk. Make your body so tired it has to sleep. Limit or eliminate things that further raise your blood pressure and cause your body physical stress. Cut out caffeine, which increases your blood pressure. Skip refined sugar, which induces highs and lows in blood sugar, leads to mood swings and further contributes to stress on your body. One effect of adrenaline, heightened awareness, tends to lead to an oversized perception of how bad things are. Channel your thoughts toward problem solving. Use the heightened focus to figure out what you can do to rectify the situation. Let your mind be creative and think outside the box – that’s

where the best solutions often come from. If you’re going to deal with your problems instead of wallow in them, you have to know what it is that you’re dealing with. Write out every issue you’re facing. Keep going until you’re spent. Once you have a list of problems, make a list of advantages – what you still have that you can draw upon. If you’re having trouble making that list, ask someone else to help you. They may be able to see advantages that you are momentarily having difficulty seeing. Using your lists of problems and advantages, ask others to help you brainstorm possible solutions. Keep in mind that when we get stressed many of us tend to pull inward. Isolation doesn’t help. We need to get perspective on what’s going on around us. We need outside input in order to gather ideas about how to move forward. Not sure that the people around you are the right ones to talk to? Get professionals involved. Whether it’s business or personal help that you need, surround yourself with people who can listen, reflect back, provide ideas about what to do next and give you support as you get moving in a new direction.

I guarantee that no matter how bad things are, there is always someone who is better off and someone who is worse off. Get involved with other people. Volunteer. Seeing others in need and being around people who are focused on solving problems will help you gain perspective. Finally, no matter how much you think the business needs you, make time off happen. Give yourself permission to get away. Take up meditation. Go for a hike. Schedule a vacation and leave the cell phone and laptop behind. Distract yourself and give your brain and body a chance to recharge by changing the situation. Looking for a good book? Try “Getting Things Done. The Art of Stress-Free Productivity” by David Allen.

The project stalled, however, at least in part over the issue of preservation of existing structure. In May, the Yonkers Industrial Development Agency and Spano, who also serves as IDA chairman, sought to revive

by Jan. 3 next year. The NYS 2100 Commission is charged with finding ways to improve the resilience and strength of the state’s infrastructure in the event of natural disasters and other emergencies. Cuomo said the commission’s review and recommendations will address opportunities to integrate infrastructure planning and development into the state’s economic development strategies. The commission also will look at reforms in insurance and risk management related to natural disasters and other emergencies. The governor’s NYS Respond Commission will examine ways to ensure the state is ready to respond to future weather-related disasters.

SBA spokeswoman Carol Chastang. The SBA also has received 24 applications for home disaster loans from Westchester homeowners. “No loans have been approved in Westchester County at this point,” she said. The SBA as of Nov. 19 approved 151 disaster loans totaling slightly more than $8.1 million for businesses in the five boroughs, Long Island and Rockland County. For many other businesses in Westchester, the storm’s damage to their bottom line was caused by closings due to prolonged power outages, noted Business Council of Westchester President and CEO Marsha Gordon. “There were one to two weeks of lost productivity, which absolutely will affect the bottom line for the fourth quarter of the year,” she said. For those businesses, “I think the month of December will be a major catch-up time,” she said. Gordon said this post-storm recovery

period is “an important time for all businesses to sit with their insurance agents and comprehensively review policies. This is a time to have your insurance agent be an active member of your team.” Businesses should review their computer back-up systems and emergency preparedness, including provisions for contacting employees and alternative work arrangements. “This is the time to be forwardthinking,” she said. “I think many businesses learned a hard lesson during this storm. This is a good time to do a check-up for businesses even if they weren’t affected” by Sandy. At the state level, Gov. Andrew Cuomo recently announced that three newly created commissions will prepare “a comprehensive blueprint so we can bring our emergency preparedness and response capabilities into the 21st century and ensure our infrastructure is built to survive major weather incidents.” Their preliminary recommendations are due

the Weinberg project and help the developer secure financing by tentatively approving sales and use tax exemptions for renovation purchases and a tax abatement agreement. IDA officials said medical offices, a bank and a restaurant were planned for the site in a $21.4 million project that would create an estimated 180 to 250 permanent jobs. Spano said the original building would be largely preserved under the plan. But developer Ted Weinberg never paid the balance due on the purchase contract after putting down a deposit, said the mayor’s spokesperson, Christina Gilmartin. She noted too that “certain due diligence was to be met by Weinberg within 13 months of the contract” that was negotiated in 2006. “After continued outreach to Weinberg, city of Yonkers is moving forward with this project and is now looking for another developer,” Gilmartin said in an email. Weinberg did not respond to a call for comment. The city’s new RFP urges prospective developers to rehabilitate and adaptively reuse existing structures on the site. The developer initially will lease the property from the city with an option to purchase within six months of substantial completion of construction. Proposals are due Jan. 30, 2013. “After standing for years as a blighted property in an otherwise prosperous area, the Boyce Thompson site hopefully will soon be part of the economic revitalization for the city of Yonkers,” Spano said with the RFP release. “A building with such unique architecture and prime location should be restored and utilized for the benefit of residents, visitors and to further the economic goals of the city.”

Why your small business needs a disaster recovery plan BY BILL ABRAM

or New York City, Westchester and Fairfield County businesses, Hurricane Sandy caused a significant business interruption. From flooded offices and power outages to inaccessible buildings, Sandy prevented many professionals from experiencing something we take for granted – business as usual. With weather predictions of an aboveaverage snowfall for the Northeast this winter and one snowstorm already behind us, small businesses need to assess how they will respond when disaster strikes. It’s time to create a disaster recovery plan. A disaster recovery plan (DRP) is a documented process or set of procedures to recover and protect a business’s IT infrastructure in the event of a disaster. Gartner Inc. estimates that only 25 percent of small- to mid-sized businesses actually have a comprehensive DRP in place. Prevent Mother Nature from putting a frosty finish on your small business’s bottom line this winter and follow these four steps for creating a DRP: 1. Identify threats and consequences. Start by creating a list of potential disasters and ranking each based on likelihood of occurrence. Next, identify the level of impact each would have on your business and briefly outline the specific consequences. Use this framework to determine which issues to address in the DRP. When creating your list of threats and consequences, plan for both small- and largescale disasters. DRPs aren’t one-size-fits-all, so it’s important to consider how industry, geography and company size impact your disaster likelihood rankings. 2. Plan for prevention, detection and correction. When crafting your DRP, address these three key areas – prevention, detection and correction. What will happen if your phones go down for the day? How will you handle a week-long power outage in the middle of your peak season? Do you have all employee reach numbers, especially cell numbers, updated and stored offsite? These are the kinds of questions to answer within your DRP. Preventative measures focus on what your small business can do to prevent a disaster from occurring. Think power failure, data breaches, server failures, etc. Means of preventing these occurrences include offsite data backup, onsite generators and password protection policies. Detective measures alert you to unwanted threats or occurrences. Think fire alarms

and up-to-date anti-virus software. Corrective measures focus on how one will react to a disaster or threat. Examples include securing necessary insurance policies, storing critical documents within your DRP and maintaining and updating key personnel information securely and off site. 3. Anticipate data loss. Oftentimes, data loss is due to file system corruption, deleted virtual machines, internal virtual disk corruptions, storage/server hardware failures and deleted or corrupt files. With proper data backup in place, the problem can be prevented regardless of whether your onsite server gets flooded or someone deletes data. If your company works with an IT vendor, be sure to ask: Who is managing my data? How is my data being backed up? What if my data gets lost? This will provide a clear understanding of data threats and recovery processes. Confirm that your IT does a “test” of restoring from backup. Sometimes, organizations opt to have active and backup servers housed within their physical office. While you are technically backing up your data, having both servers reside in the same physical location is problematic if power is down at the office for an extended period of time or flooding occurs. Despite being backed up, you can’t access the data until the waters recede or power is restored. Do you need to have a designated offsite place to work? Will the local coffee shop work? Do you need a seat at a data center? 4. Test. Refine. Update. Testing the DRP that you have built is vitally important. Testing applies to any backup servers or remote access tools that are in place and having staff execute their assigned roles so they are comfortable doing so when faced with a disaster. Once the initial test has been completed, refine the plan. Address any gaps and streamline cumbersome processes. If employees can execute their assigned tasks from the office or remotely, both circumstances should be tested. As new technology is acquired and procedures change, your DRP will need to be updated. While creating a DRP requires an investment of time and money, Hurricane Sandy was a reminder that one needs to be prepared for the worst and hope for the best.

BY SAM BARRON sbarron@westfairinc.com

ounty Executive Rob Astorino (R-Mount Pleasant) unveiled his $1.7 billion 2013 budget, featuring no property tax increase and 126 layoffs. Astorino blamed the layoffs on the Civil Service Employees Union’s (CSEA) refusal to contribute more to its health care plan. The budget also calls for deferring $35 million of a $91 million pension bill and bonding $13 million tax certiorari payments. “The story of this budget is not what is but what could have been,” Astorino said in a statement. “I pleaded with our largest union, the CSEA, to help avoid layoffs. Had they followed the lead of three other unions to start contributing to the cost their health care, we could have saved jobs and programs. But they refused.” Astorino said that unfunded mandates from Albany made up 85 percent of the county’s tax levy, and called the 2 percent cap on the tax levy a cruel joke. “One state mandate – pensions – puts the county over the tax cap. The bottom line is that for every dollar the county sends to Albany, it only gets 45 cents back,” Astorino said. This kind of Albany math is crushing us.” Social services (75 jobs), parks (22 jobs) and public works and transportation (24 jobs) are the departments suffering the most layoffs. Through attrition, 63 other positions will not be filled. Almost 4 percent of the county’s workforce is being reduced through the budget. Karen Pecora, the President of the CSEA’s Westchester Unit, said that Astorino’s budget cuts were reckless and would put residents at risk, particularly when another storm like Hurricane Sandy hits.

“CSEA continues to work diligently to reach a contract agreement fair to all, but the county executive has been unwilling to budge on a contractual obligation to job security,” Pecora said. Pecora said that CSEA employees are the lowest paid in the county but are asked to contribute the most toward their health insurance. County taxes make up around 5 percent of a homeowner’s property tax bill. The Democrats on the Board of Legislators said they reacted with “guarded optimism and concern” over Astorino’s budget, promising to go line by line. Their chief concerns were Astorino’s plan to defer $35 million of the $91 million pension bill and bonding to pay for tax certioraris. “Westchester County has never bonded for tax certioraris, and the practice has caused great problems for places like Nassau County,” Chairman Ken Jenkins (D-Yonkers) said. “The budget, as proposed, will be closely reviewed and prioritized to do what is right for Westchester. We’ll undoubtedly find areas of agreement and places where we’d like to see some changes.” The Democrats later said there were troubling inaccuracies in the budget. Astorino claims the Department of Social Services will have a reduction of 75 positions, while the Democrats claim the reduction will be 45 positions. “I hope these inaccuracies are mere flukes and that we do not see more of them during this budget process,” said Legislator Judy Myers (D-Larchmont), chair of the Budget & Appropriations Committee. “Westchester County taxpayers – and legislators – deserve to know exactly what the spending and revenues figures are in this budget, and we already off to a bad start in terms of veracity.” The Board of Legislators will be holding three public hearings on the 2013 budget. Public hearings will be held Nov. 29 at 7 p.m. at Cortlandt Town Hall and Dec. 5 at 7 p.m. at the Westchester County Center in White Plains. A public hearing was held Nov. 20 at Mamaroneck Village Hall. Legislators will also be meeting with various departments throughout November and December with the meetings streamed online. Legislators have until Dec. 27 to approve a budget.

Do they know you care? BY JOE MURTAGH

ustomers and prospects are generally skeptical and trust your marketing, public relations and sales efforts as much as they would trust Bernie Madoff. The Great Recession has conditioned us to be cautious, and with good reason. In the words of Theodore Roosevelt, “People don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care.” The most powerful way to overcome skepticism is positive word-of-mouth that is gained by others knowing that you care. Build positive word-of-mouth by doing your homework. Know what the people in your marketplace do for a living, the special interests they share and the recreational activities they enjoy. The next step is to align yourself and build a network of “centers of influence” within your carefully researched market by letting them know that you are aware of their wants and needs and have the best solutions to meet them. Both on and offline, effective

centers of influence are highly respected people involved in professional, industry and community organizations common to your market. They lead the decision-making process in your marketplace and must become passionate advocates and members of your team. In the business book “Unusually Excellent,” author John Hamm reminds us of the truth, “Your biggest test as a leader is to motivate each member of your team to become fully engaged in the success of your project. That can only occur if you are engaged with them in their success.” So how can you engage and help “centers” be successful? By simply re-examining the information you’ve already gathered in order to know the people in your marketplace: You already know what your “centers of influence” do for a living, the special interests they share and the recreational activities they enjoy. Begin by asking them what blogs or social media they follow, groups they are part of and clubs they belong to. Then

participate in them in order to gaining visibility. Where do they socialize? Be there! What publications do they read? Subscribe and write articles! Where and when are their industry or professional conferences? Attend them! Offer your time without strings attached. A “what’s in it for me” attitude leaves a bad impression. Help your “centers” with their charity-sponsored projects. By serving on a committee or buying tickets to an event, you communicate that you are interested in helping with what’s important to them. Go from visibility to high visibility by providing thoughtful and very helpful information in the social media forums they enjoy and serving on high visibility committees that do important and challenging work benefiting their interest. This way, you avoid getting lost in the crowd and have the opportunity to demonstrate your leadership, people, and organizational skills. Service shows you are worthy of trust and confidence and will give you tremendous access to good prospects. Be patient

and always add value. Hamm, an internationally known consultant on leadership strategy who is regularly published in Business 2.0, Business Week, Fortune, USA Today and The Wall Street Journal reminds us that “Leaders must go first.” Millions of people are eagerly waiting to buy from you if you can convince them that you are trustworthy. To gain their trust they must know you care. Unlike your competitors who invest their time in marketing, public relations and sales efforts, invest your resources and show that you’re interested in what they want. Questions for discussion: Do we know our centers well enough to show them that we care? What can we do to build even higher levels of trust with our customers?

social media trends

Social media privacy? No such thing

hen my 20-year-old son broke up with his girlfriend, the first thing both of them did was change their Facebook status. When people wanted to obtain a lot of signatures for a petition for financial aid for Sandy victims, they turned to social media and within 48 hours had over 10,000 signers. When President Obama needed financial backing, he turned to the Internet and gathered 3 million people who donated more than $500 million. What do these seemingly disparate actions have in common? They all involve some type of online interaction. These interactions can be as simple as exchanging emails between two people. As we sit in front of our computers, we think of ourselves as being somewhat isolated, tethered to the world through some type of communication line. Yet, it is through this tether that our communication in real time with people all over the world becomes possible. Social media is exactly what its title declares it to be: social. Because I’m sending

an email to someone, there’s no reason to assume that it will remain private. Google, for example, stores every email that is sent via Gmail. It also keeps track of the selections of every Chrome browser user. To hide the size of its storage facilities, it even omits their images from being displayed on its satellite images. This content is also unregulated despite several numerous attempts by a number of parties. Social media encourages people to be social – and to receive rewards for their actions. Facebook rewards consistent posters with a higher Edgerank. LinkedIn rewards consistent contributors by including them on frequent poster listings. (So far, these postings do not affect their search rankings, unlike Blogger.) The top of each Twitter page displays the number of followers, which unfortunately is very important to many people. (What should be more important to them is the ratio of followers to number of people followed. An industry leader should have at least a 4:1 ratio of followers to following.) With all of this emphasis on being social, how can we assume that any privacy exists online? We shouldn’t, but yet, we do. We

want to believe that when we send an email, only the party (or parties) that it is directed to will read it. Maybe we expect anonymity because of the billions of emails and posts that are made online every day. That occurs most of the time. However, these posts can also stand out. The employee who makes disparaging remarks online about his or her boss and company isn’t (usually) doing it to be fired or disciplined. They’re just talking or relating to others about their experiences. But it’s online – and not private, despite their wishes. Even being the director of the CIA does not mean you are immune to scrutiny. Anything online is fair game. There are a growing number of monitoring programs designed to uncover sentiment across numerous social media sites. (Sentiment is broadly defined as the attitude of people toward a person, brand or company.) Some of these programs – such as Radian6 – are very extensive and widely used by online marketing firms. They track what people are saying and allow a company to rapidly respond. They also do not take into account any notions of privacy; they just seek relevant information.

One reason President Obama won re-election was because of the ability of his campaign to focus down to the micro-niche level of voters and determine many of the key factors affecting their decision. Privacy was not a consideration, only the constructing of profiles and how to best reach these potential supporters. I expect the Republicans to rapidly duplicate these methods in upcoming elections. So, social media privacy is really a misnomer. It doesn’t exist. It’s also why every company should require a social media policy that specifically tells employees and contractors what they can and cannot do. Remember the next time you send an email or post to a private group that despite your intentions, it can always be retrieved and viewed by others.

in brief Spectrum to close Brewster plant

Minneapolis-based Spectrum Plastics Group filed a warn notice with the state that it is closing its 30,000-square-foot Dynacept Company Inc. plant in Brewster in March and laying off 39 employees in February. Eleven other employees will be transferred to its Ansonia, Conn. facility. The company has another location in Colorado. Spectrum said they are closing the plant for economic reasons. Its employees are non-union and not subject to a collective bargaining agreement. On its website, the company said the restructuring will enable Spectrum to better service its customers by giving them immediate access to every potential solution managed by project management teams. Spectrum does prototyping, tooling and manufacturing and works with the medical, defense, industrial and electronics industries. Calls to Spectrum were not returned. Dynacept was initially founded in Bedford Hills, but moved to Brewster in 2000.

FEMA opens R ockland center

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has opened a disaster recovery center for victims of Hurricane Sandy in Rockland County at 1 Provident Bank Park Drive in Pomona. The center is open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily. FEMA through Nov. 18 approved more than $500 million in assistance to individuals and families in 13 counties recovering from flood, wind and tree damage and prolonged power outages. More than 212,000 New Yorkers have contacted FEMA for information or have registered for assistance, FEMA officials said. More than half of applicants have applied either online at disasterassistance. gov or on their smart phones at m.fema.gov.

New Castle set for Small Business Saturday

The Chappaqua-Millwood Chamber of Commerce is gearing up for Small Business Saturday, a day dedicated to helping small businesses and their communities. Small Business Saturday is held in between Black Friday and Cyber Monday.

“Our local businesses are owned by people who live in our community, and are more invested in our community’s future,” Chamber President Robert Greenstein said. “Our local businesses often provide better service. They have a better understanding of the products they are selling and take more time to get to know customers.” Several Chappaqua restaurants are offering specials. Local is offering an $8 soup and salad lunch special, and any patron who shows a receipt from a Chappaqua retailer for $25 or more gets a free ice cream or beverage with an $8 purchase. La Jardin Du Roi is offering 15 percent off lunch items.

Bike shop donates to families in need

Bicycle World, the Mount Kisco-based family-owned company, donated 17 refurbished children’s bicycles to the local chapter of the Boys and Girls Club of Northern Westchester. The bikes are specifically for families who could not otherwise afford one. Children who have already submitted a request to the Boys and Girls Club to receive a bicycle this year are on tap to get one of a selection of the donated bikes. The company recently revealed the

demand for used bicycles in Westchester County has gone up. To that end, Bicycle World continues to buy trade-ins from customers ranging from mountain bikes to children’s bikes to refurbish and sell them.

SPECIAL Wealth REPORT Management

Small business community committed to growth amid storm recovery BY TARICE L.S. GRAY tgray@westfairinc.com

Christopher Jordan, president and CEO of Lexco.

or many people, the road to wealth has a direct path through the world of small business, but lately that road has been rough. The economic downturn crippled many fledgling companies and even forced some to close. Most recently, Hurricane Sandy has made difficult times worse. Like many in the region, Westchester’s small business community is trying to remain afloat, if not thrive. Christopher Jordan, president and CEO of Lexco Wealth Management Inc., said many of his small business clients have “suffered deeply.” Those that closed or still cannot do business are barely staying afloat because those challenges “affect their profitability, especially if they don’t have much of a cushion,” Jordan said. According to the Westchester County Office of Economic Development, the county is home to 52,000 small businesses and self-employed business people. They are major job creators in the area and generate tax dollars that help maintain the communities they serve. But some budgets are tight. The IDC reported the average revenue for a small business has hovered around $3 million within the last decade with most in that group bringing in closer to $1 million. Local banks have, for the time being, remained sensitive to the needs and challenges facing the small business community. Many of them, including Greater Hudson Bank and Apple Bank, have extended special business loan programs to those in need of funds for cleanup and recovery. The Westchester Business Council has worked diligently to update and reach out to its small business members, updating its website on such programs as well as offering information relative to regaining financial footing through the Small Business Association (SBA) and Federal Emergency Management Association (FEMA). John Ravitz, executive vice president and COO of The Business Council of Westchester, said recovery “is going to take months for our businesses that were hit really hard by Sandy.” He added that the storm was “a major step back,” but many in

the business community have proven to be resilient keeping their doors open and doing what they can in helping their neighborhood get through the struggles caused by Sandy. Many of those small businesses that have suffered are retail shops and restaurants. Food products had to be thrown out, the arrival of inventory shipments were thwarted due to the storm, and other inventory was damaged by the intrusion of the harsh weather conditions. Business structures were also damaged and owners have been waiting on insurance and seeking additional loans to become fully operational. The recovery process may be ongoing, but there are signs of hope. Ravitz said the holiday season can propel small businesses forward, and many have benefited from the push for “Support Small Business Day.” It’s vital to invest in the community, according to Ravitz, because small businesses in the region “employ local people and bring revenue into the community, which helps long term.” He added that most understand we’re all in this together and the cry to support local retail, restaurants, and services is a call most have answered because they understand how critical neighborhood investment is. That gives Ravitz reason to be optimistic. Jordan also believes in the resiliency of his small business clients and he said his company continues to strive to help them not only stay afloat, but tap into their potential to grow. “We try to educate our small business clients so that they are making the best decision at the time. What you do now versus two years from now is different.” Most appreciate the fact that being a small business owner is no small feat, Jordan said, and the issues of the day that might make the road to success more challenging have made those owners more diligent in their business practices, and even more determined to overcome hardship. Jordan added that these latest obstacles including Hurricane Sandy and even the impending arrival of the “fiscal cliff” deadline are being met by a small business population that is better prepared. “I think the reality check of the crash of 2008 and the recession has forced people to be more vigilant, and in the end that’s going to help them.”

Picking up the tab BY Bernard A. Krooks

aby boomers could soon face their own fiscal cliff, as state governments consider the implications of “filial responsibility” claims making their way through court systems. Although seldom enforced, statutes holding adult children responsible for their parents’ bills are on the books in about 30 states. A Pennsylvania man was recently told to pay $93,000 for his mother’s nursing home care. Filial responsibility laws have been around since colonial times, but with the advent of Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid, most states stopped enforcing them. Now that the national dialogue is increasingly focused on the role that entitlements should play in balancing the budget, that could change. New York has no filial responsibility law at this time, but consider the numbers: According to AARP, nearly three-quarters of the $13.4 billion spent each year in New York for nursing home care is primarily paid by Medicaid, a program that’s jointly funded with federal and state dollars. With the largest generation in U.S. history approaching retirement, costs stand to balloon. Gov. Andrew Cuomo has already been aggressive in his efforts to rein in

Medicaid costs. Shifting responsibility from a controversial, publicly funded benefit to family members could prove attractive. Filial responsibility laws usually involve situations in which a parent has unpaid medical bills or has relied on government support. States have been known to garnish wages, assign property liens and report unpaid debt to credit agencies. In some places, it’s possible to serve jail time. Enforcement has typically involved situations in which the adult child was somehow responsible for the parent’s impoverishment, perhaps by defrauding them. Not so in the Pennsylvania case. So adult children who may have had absolutely no control over their parents’ financial decisions could suddenly be faced with whopping bills. These are particularly stressful economic times for boomers, faced with tuition debt, shrinking retirement investments and recession-hobbled careers. Although courts have typically not forced adult offspring into poverty, the result can still be devastating. The son hit with his mom’s $93,000 bill had an $85,000 yearly income. Given longer life spans, traditional preparations for retirement may be insufficient. In many cases, the younger generation has assumed that mom or dad could just move

in with them, if necessary. At worst, they figured that Medicaid would handle nursing home expenses. But the elder care landscape may be changing in ways that are difficult to predict, and potential liability argues for increased involvement by adult children in their parents’ financial planning. Because elderly parents can be stubborn about sharing money details, it may be helpful to frame such discussions in terms of the arrangements that middle-aged “kids” are making for their own golden years. And long-term care insurance should certainly play a part in the conversation. If parents don’t already have a policy, run the numbers. Depending on their age, high premiums may mean that it’s more cost-effective to selfinsure. In either case, money should be allocated to cover care that may not be handled by either Medicare or Medicaid. It may be advisable for adult children to help out with premium payments now to avoid more expense later on. If acquiring a long-term care policy 211215A01 is practical, sorting through the options can be confusing. So it’s wise to seek advice from a certified elder law attorney, who can explain the various options and riders available to you in these insurance policies. It appears that many of the filial responsibility suits underway in Pennsylvania – given

current program guidelines – are aimed at prodding offspring to file Medicaid applications on behalf of their parents. So establishing and maintaining eligibility for the government benefits that are currently available are other important considerations. Again, the process can be complex and legal advice can avert costly mistakes. It’s not easy to watch parents age, and most adult children want to do everything possible to ensure their security. No one can predict what will happen in New York state regarding filial responsibility statutes, but candid family discussions and contingency planning could avoid having to make painful, crisis-driven choices in the future.

Wealth management 101 BY SAM BARRON sbarron@westfairinc.com

here are not many people who know the ins and outs of wealth management better than Jeff Cohen and Randy Siller, who run Rye Brook-based family wealth advisory firm Siller and Cohen L.L.C. Siller and Cohen has been in business for 25 years, and features a wide range of services and people with investment knowledge, including certified public accountants (CPAs), financial planners and certified investment management analysts (CIMAs). “We consider ourselves a service-oriented business,” Cohen said. “Along with wealth management, we do comprehensive planning, estate planning and business planning, among others.” A key component to successful wealth management is being involved in both active and passive investing. According to investopedia.com, active investing is trying to beat the market over a period of time, while passive investing involves diversifying your funds into a broad array of markets. “We strongly believe in both,” Cohen said. “We believe that when we do active investing, we can beat the indexes, if not, we invest in the indexes.” Siller said that they usually have a mix of active and passive investment mangers, and it all depends whether they have the opportunity to outperform the market. “We have a relationship, we have to be selective,” Cohen said. Siller and Cohen works with Dimensional Fund Advisors to get access to the best mutual funds on the market for its clients. It also looks at indexes when deciding whether to buy or sell stock. The firm waits for strategic times to invest, not selling or buying a stock when everyone else is doing the same. “We look at alternate investments as well absolute return,” said Cohen, a certified financial planner. “We want to make money no matter what it is; we try to lower the risks.” Siller said that his clients recovered quickly after the stock market crash in 2008 because of the diversification of their investments and sound tactical management. “It was a great offset to clients when we mixed up their portfolio,” Siller said. “We made some significant money with managed futures.” The firm also uses absolute return managers who use short selling, leverage and a high portfolio turnover to get a return on their investment. “An absolute return manager does well when the markets are volatile,” Siller, a CPA and CIMA, said. “They have the ability to

turn money in an up, down and sideways market.” An example Siller gave is if a person wanted to invest in Home Depot because they believed it would outperform Lowe’s, they would sell Lowe’s short and buy Home Depot, needing only Home Depot to make more than Lowe’s to make money. Even though by selling Lowe’s short the investor loses money, they make up the difference and then some with Home Depot. A good absolute return manager doesn’t need the market to do well for their client to do well.

“We need to be there when the markets are hit hard,” Siller said. “Asset allocation and absolute return are critical to smooth out the ride for our client. Everything we do is client centric. It’s all about the client. Clients need to be taken into account, first, last and always.” When working with a client, Siller and Cohen go over their financial needs, financial goals, and their tax situation and produce a model for them. “We give our client an X-ray of where they are and what their issues are,” Siller said. “We educate clients about the markets

and find out their risk tolerance. We focus on the downside first before we get our client to make a final decision.” Instead of using straight line analysis that assumes the markets will improve 6 to 7 percent a year, Siller and Cohen use Monte Carlo analysis. Monte Carlo takes into account that the markets go up and down and move in different manners. “It gives you a realistic answer as to what the odds are of reaching financial independence,” Siller said. “It allows you to develop more of a successful plan and it works.”

Lots of advisors suit up, show up and keep up. But how many know when to speak up?

Martha Graham single-handedly brought dance into the 20th century. She did nothing less than create an entirely new genre, while shattering the expectations of audiences and critics alike with her percussive, angular movement style. So why do most kids think that she’s a tasty snack food? Each day, more and more of the arts are being drained from our children’s schools. Speak up and demand your child’s fair share of arts education. Otherwise, even a legacy as rich as Martha Graham’s can crumble to nothing.

GOOD THINGS her the Martha Washington Woman of History Award. Appropriately, the award emanates from where Martha Washington resided with her husband, Gen. George Washington, during the last months of the Revolutionary War. The ceremony takes place in March, during Women’s History Month. The award acknowledges Martha Washington’s important place in history as a devoted patriot in support of the American Revolution and the ensuing new nation. This is the 11th year the award has been given, continuing the site’s mission to educate the public about the history of our great state and national heritage. We know there are many women who are dedicated to sharing and preserving our history. Perhaps you know of a woman who shares her love of history with children by taking them to historic places during her free time? Is there a woman who has done research about the Hudson Valley and has shared her findings to encourage others to do the same? Do you know a woman who has used her private time or resources to preserve a landmark of historic significance? These are just a few examples of what could qualify a woman to be a recipient of the award. As you can perceive, the nomination field is open to any woman who has cultivated interest and awareness of Hudson Valley history, either locally or nationally. Nominations must be completed and submitted by Jan. 4. To download a nomination form, please go to the Conservancy website at Palisadesparksconservancy.org.

Torn between capitalism and anarchy, the legendary filmmaker (“Pink Flamingos,” “Hairspray,” etc), raconteur, and best-selling author feels “Christmas crazy” this year – “needy, greedy, horny for presents and filled with an unnatural desire to please.”  Waters’ rapid-fire monologue explores and explodes the traditional holiday rituals and traditions. He shares his religious fanaticism for Santa Claus and an unhealthy love of real life holiday horror stories. John Samuel Waters Jr. is an American filmmaker, actor, stand-up comedian, writer, journalist, visual artist, and art collector, who rose to fame in the early 1970s for his transgressive cult films. Waters’ 1970s and early ’80s trash films feature his regular troupe of actors known as the Dreamlanders—among them Divine, Mink Stole, David Lochary, Mary Vivian Pearce and Edith Massey. Starting with “Desperate Living” (1977), Waters began casting reallife convicted criminals such as Liz Renay and Patricia Hearst and infamous people, including Traci Lords, a former porn star. Waters skirted mainstream filmmaking with “Hairspray” (1988), which introduced Ricki Lake and earned a modest gross of $8 million domestically. In 2002, Hairspray was adapted to a long-running Broadway musical, which itself was adapted to a hit musical film that earned more than $200 million worldwide. Waters’ films also feature familiar actors and celebrities such as Johnny Depp, Edward Furlong, Melanie Griffith, Chris Isaak, Johnny Knoxville, Martha Plimpton, Christina Ricci, Lili Taylor, Kathleen Turner, John Travolta and Tracey Ullman.  Although he maintains apartments in New York City
