he Stamford Executive Center at 1111 Summer St. is a handsome glass-clad office building near the center of the city that is home to a number of lawyers and other businesses. It is also at the center of a legal tussle between New York City developers over
allegedly shot a total of 13 people, most of whom were black, killing 10. Gov. Kathy Hochul, who is from Buffalo, went to the scene and said she would go ahead with plans to introduce a new package of gun control laws on May 17. President Biden and First Lady Jill Biden visited Buffalo to meet with survivors of the mass shooting and families of the deceased. “Unfortunately, these mass shootings have increased over the years and the fatality rate has also increased because of the ability to get these high-powered weapons,” David E. Chong, public safety commissioner for the city of White Plains, told the Business Journals. “We abide by the standard of ‘run, hide and fight.’ If you are a business owner, you certainly must have an
exit besides the entrance, so you must have another way out of your business and that should be clearly, clearly marked. All your employees should clearly know where that other exit is. In a large supermarket or department store there will be many exits. Those should be clearly marked in bright red. Your employees should know where those exits lead to.” Chong is a veteran of more than 44 years in law enforcement. In addition to currently serving as head of the eighth largest municipal police department in New York state, Chong previously was police commissioner for Mount Vernon. He served more than 22 years with the New York City Police Department (NYPD), retiring as lieutenant commander of detectives.

NYC developers spar over Stamford office property ground lease a ground lease. 1111 Summer Street LLC, the plaintiff in the case and the would-be buyer of the ground lease, is registered at 670 Myrtle Ave. in Brooklyn. The company lists its principal as Abraham Brach, a New York City developer with several multimillion-dollar properties to his name. If the sale had gone through, Brach’s compa-
ny would have acquired the remaining 97 years of the grounds lease for the Stamford Executive Center. The agreed-to terms included $600,000 and the assumption of all debts related to the property by Brach’s company. Brach’s lawsuit for the ownership of the Executive Center’s ground lease was filed with Stamford Judicial district on March 28. It
accused the current owners of the lease of one count of breach of contract and another count of breach of good faith. The complaint mentioned that a third entity, AGW Summer LLC, owns the property, but does not name them as a defendant. Meanwhile, the current owners of the ground lease, the similarly named 1111 Summer Street Ventures
LLC, lists as its principal 1111 Summer Street Investor LLC, which in turn lists an address at 40 W. 57 St. in Manhattan. This address is shared with Joshua Schuster’s Silverback Development, which lists the Stamford Executive Center as one of its current projects. Silverback Development was founded by its managing principal Josh Schuster.
Once hailed as a rising star of real estate in the New York City area by The Real Deal, that same publication more recently reported on allegations from his former business partners who stated that the New York courts ordered Schuster to pay millions of dollars to his creditors. This included more than $300,000 for failing to make payments

he owner of a 6.23-acre commercial property at 130 Midland Ave. in Port Chester is seeking village approval to demolish the existing building and construct a new building that would be occupied by an outlet of the national Floor & Decor chain. In addition, the plan calls for a possible second retail space on the site that would be occupied by other businesses. The entity 130 Midland Avenue Owner LLC has presented its application, including a number of engineering studies to Port Chester, where they are under review by the Planning Commission. The current one-story commercial building on the site was most recently used by Key Foods as a supermarket and also by several other retailers. It is described as being “functionally obsolete.” It would be demolished and replaced with an 80,000-square-foot building that would be rented by Floor & Decor. There would be a wholesale sales area of approximately 64,870 square feet, a stockroom of approximately 12,800 square feet and an office area of approximately 1,950 square feet. An 8,500-square-foot commercial building would front on Midland Avenue and would be rented out. Attorney David Cooper of the White Plains-based law firm Zarin & Steinmetz said that the applicant did not yet have any tenants for the smaller building. He told the Planning Commission, “The applicant and its professional consultants have assumed for impact assessment purposes that the building would be utilized as a ‘strip retail plaza’ use. While the actual end use(s) may be less intense, the applicant believes using the ‘strip retail plaza’ use is appropriate because it allows your commission to conservatively assume higher vehicle trips and other planning metrics when quantifying potential impacts.” The plan calls for providing

Rendering of Floor & Decor that may be coming to Port Chester. 229 parking spaces for the Floor & Decor outlet and additional retail use in the future. The plan says an additional 33 spaces could be provided if necessary. Cooper also told the commission that “there are similar uses along the Midland Avenue commercial corridor in this part of the village. This includes a specialty tile design and retail business, several strip retail centers and a Home Depot. Replacing the vacant Key Foods use with a Floor & Decor use would maintain this existing pattern of development in this neighborhood.” Cooper pointed out that Midland Avenue has been identified as a commercial corridor in the village’s new Form Based Code and named as being appropriate for wholesale sales uses. Cooper pointed out that the plan includes widening the current driveway from 42 feet to 56 feet, which would increase safety for motorists. “Changing the use of the site from a grocery store to wholesale sales would be a reduction in the intensity of use,” Cooper said. He also pointed out that the proposed Floor & Decor outlet would be a less intense use than a fully occupied as-of-right grocery store in terms of traffic, hours of operation, deliveries, noise and similar operational characteristics. A history of the site was included in one of the studies the applicant submitted. It said that around the early 1900s, the site contained an industrial building housing a boiler room and power plant, which was later converted FCBJ

NYC developers— required by a settlement with investor Steven Fisch to settle an unrepaid loan Schuster received to develop the Stamford Executive Center. In January 2021, Silverback Developments sold the Stamford Executive Center to AGW Summer for $8.5 million while signing a leaseback. The entire property’s value was appraised at about $21 million. The ground lease signed with AGW Summer grants Schuster’s company a 98-year lease of the Executive Center. Brach’s company alleged that Schuster’s company signed a sales agreement in Nov. 2021. Instead of closing within five days as stipulated in the agreement, the current owners failed to close and fulfill their obligations. Additionally, the complaint alleged that the current owners directed Korth Direct Mortgage, which granted a mortgage on the ground lease to 1111 Summer Street Ventures, not to cooperate with the buyers in completing the transaction. During the duration of a ground lease, the tenant is responsible for paying the property taxes and, in return, can mortgage the property and collect rents from those who have more traditional leases on a property. Many investors make use of
these options to build on property they do not wish to own outright, and since they do not need to put money down on the property to start making use of it, it is also useful for rapid expansion. In the case of the Stamford Executive Center, it appears that the ground lease was combined with a sale leaseback. In addition to failing to close the sale, the defendant did not appear in court after the initial summons, prompting the plaintiff’s lawyer, Mark Schnitzler of Schnitzler Law, to file for a default judgment to create a temporary receivership to collect all rents from the ground lease until the matter is closed. On April 29, Judge Kenneth Provodator ordered that a hearing on the matter be scheduled for a future date. On both counts, Brach’s company is seeking all interests, benefits and obligations for real property of both buildings, being appointed the receiver of all rents across that entire space. Money damages are put forth as an alternative as well. At press time, 1111 Summer Street Ventures did not respond to requests for comment and does not have listed representation.

Health care lessons learned from the pandemic
BY EDWARD ARRIAZA earriaza@westfairinc.com
T
he Connecticut Business & Industry Association (CBIA) held a forum on May 10 focusing on the pandemic’s disruption of the U.S. health care system and the strategies for moving forward. Titled “Health Care’s Future: The Post-Covid World,” the event took an extended look at flaws in the health care system, what was learned during the pandemic and the imminent need to quickly change course to avoid a reprise. The forum, which was held at the Sheraton Hartford South Hotel in Rocky Hill, included three discussion panels, each helmed by health insurance, biopharma and health provider figures. Preceding the forum’s first panel was a slideshow presentation titled “What’s Next for

MAY 23, 2022
Employee Benefits Packages?” by Teresa Bucello, a partner and Connecticut Health Practice Leader at Mercer, who stated, “We need to demonstrate to our employees that we hear their needs, that we care and that we’re committed to supporting them.” Bucello’s presentation detailed the low morale among the health care workforce, with 77% of employees feeling burn out and more than 91% stating the stress they have felt throughout the pandemic has affected the quality of their work. Mental health relief was one key area that Bucello said must be addressed in order to reduce the strain felt by workers. According to her, all employees surveyed ranked mental health support as an area of concern, with reduction of cost for treatment being particularly valuable to them. FCBJ

However, Bucello noted that “over 40% of U.S. employees do not feel that quality mental health care is easy to find.” She recommended that one method to alleviate the dearth in support would be a shift toward supplemental telehealth services, such as virtual mental health advice provided by chat through artificial intelligence, which nearly one-third of employees would welcome in place of the lack of any services. Bucello argued that providing family-friendly benefits and services would ease the burden felt by employees juggling their roles as health care workers and parents or caregivers. “They’re looking for more support in how to not only get benefits that are going to be able to address the needs of their children, but also to ensure that there’s programs and resources in place to help support them
as they’re navigating these challenges.” Taking the stage after Bucello’s presentation were Lou Gianquinto, president and CEO of Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield Connecticut; Karen Ignagni, CEO of EmblemHealth; and Susan Halpin, co-principal of the Robinson+Cole’s Government Relations Group, who acted as moderator for the discussion panel titled “Health Insurance Reimagined.” The group’s discussion focused on Covid’s impact from the perspective of the health insurance sector and the lessons acquired by that sector. The increased importance of long-distance health care was made evident during the pandemic, with the use of telehealth services still used 38 times more than before the pandemic, according to Gianquinto. To better accommodate this
increased preference for telehealth services, Ignagni said, “Not only do you need to have sophisticated data systems, but you have to have modernized (web) portals, because that’s the first place people will go.” Preventive care is one critical element that the speakers stressed was needed to move away from its current fee-forservice system, in which health care providers are paid for the number of procedures rendered regardless of patient outcome, and move toward a value-based system, where reimbursement is tied to the quality of a patient’s health outcome. “It changes the dynamic of the relationship between the payer and provider,” Gianquinto said about value-based care. “You have the best capabilities of the payer and the best capabilities of the provider working together now for one common goal, which
is improved outcomes.” The second panel discussion, “Innovation Unleashed: Biopharma Accelerates,” was moderated by Vicky Levy, Deloitte Global Life Sciences sector leader, and focused on the new ways in which biopharma achieved quicker results during the pandemic. Raja Mangipudy, senior vice president and head of global drug safety research and development at Pfizer, described how the company launched Project Lightspeed with the aim of creating a vaccine within a short time frame to combat the global outbreak. “In 2021, Pfizer touched about 1.4 billion people worldwide. That’s about one in every six people,” Mangipudy said. “We made about 3 million doses of the vaccine, and we are looking to up that number in 2022.” Paul McCabe, managing partner of Capital Strategies Group, is a representative of the biopharmaceutical industry in Washington, D.C., and related his interactions on the policy side of the equation, and legislators’ reactions during the beginning of the pandemic. “We had the opportunity to express what we always stress with policymakers and legislators — that to take one drug to market is $2.7 billion and 10 years of research from concept,” McCabe recalled, “and that brought home for legislators and policymakers the importance of the R&D part of this industry.” On the growing prominence of AI and machine learning in aiding in studies and the development of vaccines, Eric Schadt, president and chief research and development officer at Stamford-based Sema4, detailed the promising developments the technology had and can continue to offer to the industry. “We were sequencing, drawing blood from patients, we’re isolating all the different cell types in blood, we’re doing RNA sequencing,” Schadt said. “We’re looking at imaging data that gets done in some of these patients, we’re looking at their longitudinal medical record data. So millions of features of information on a patient over time.” The next panel discussion, “Lessons from the Frontlines: Healthcare Transformed,” spotlighted how hospital presidents and CEOs navigated the pandemic and what they had concluded about the state of health care in the country. Steve Cowherd, member at Pullman & Comley, asked Jeffrey Flaks, president and CEO of Hartford HealthCare, if he felt that Covid-19 had made Connecticut health care better. Flaks responded in the affirmative, and added, “In health care, we have to be so much better than when things (were) the way they were. We already are better than normal, and we’ve learned so much.” Flaks noted the improvements in the
industry and hospitals in response to the pandemic. “The improvements in health care have been massive. So, things like infection-control procedures, it’s never been safer to be in a hospital than it is today,” Flaks continued. “We’ve made tremendous advances. The amount of ingenuity that occurred from all of our colleagues in industry and health care to create safer environments, the innovations and critical care. Who could have imagined, prior to Covid, that we would take one ventilator, and have split ventilator care where one ventilator could be caring for two people?” Much like the first panel, the “Frontlines” panel delved into what its speakers felt to be a necessity of the industry to shift toward value-based care. Connecticut Children’s Medical Center President and CEO James Shmerling illustrated how preventive care fits into a val-
ue-based realignment by using an example of an asthmatic child treated at a hospital only to be sent back to an unhealthy home, predictably returning to the hospital once again afflicted with asthma. Now, Shmerling said, “We’re asking about the home environment and we hear that there’s lead in the house or there’s rodents. We can go in and mitigate those conditions.” Kathleen Silard, president and CEO of Stamford Health, concurred with the sentiment that health care must move toward value-based care with an eye on prevention. “Thinking about the cost of health care, it just continues to spiral out of control, and the current system is broken,” Silard said, adding there must be a paradigm switch to thinking about wellness, Wealth Management “and the only way that we can do that is in collaboration with our communities, thinking about nutrition and exercise and
prevention. And if we don’t move to that paradigm, most of the health care dollar is spent on treating chronic diseases at the end of life.” Michael Manna, executive director of JPMorgan Chase, Healthcare Solutions, put a cap on the event, bringing the topics into a broader perspective with his oral presentation, “Health Care’s Future: The 10,000 Foot View.” “We acquire health care in the U.S. differently than we acquire just about everything else in the US,” Manna said before listing a large number of codes related to getting a colonoscopy. “The point is the average or even advanced, savvy consumer simply cannot navigate the complexity of a health care transaction completely on their own. We just don’t have the training.” Manna then added, “This is clearly not the way we buy other things. It’s a dysfunctional system.”

While with the NYPD, he served in a variety of key roles, including working undercover with the Tactical Patrol Unit, infiltrating Asian organized crime and gangs, on the Homicide Squad and as commanding officer of the Counter-Terrorism Bureau’s Global Intelligence Unit, formed shortly after 9/11. He has a bachelor’s degree in criminal justice, a master’s in public administration, teaches college courses in criminal justice and has trained with the FBI National Academy and the CIA. “Just like you plan with a fire drill, every employee should know in case of emergency, fire or other kind of disaster, and certainly an active shooter, the best way that they can escape, and they should actually drill on it,” Chong said. “Cameras are terrific and will help us solve a crime and they are of great evidentiary value. But, when you run up against somebody who is psychotic or just has bad intentions, the cameras do not necessarily frighten people away. They are an added layer of security and help us in law enforcement apprehend the criminal.” Chong said that gun laws are very important but they have to be enforced and, unfortunately, there is not universal enforcement. “There is a tremendous amount of guns in our country. There are actually more guns than there are people in our country,” Chong said. “Unfortunately, with social media and how people can get on social media and be radicalized, it is a mental health problem along with a gun problem. That has created these mass shooting situations that are worse than ever.” Chong observed that the two key actors allowing mass shootings to proliferate are not receiving the attention they deserve. “That has to do with punishment for the criminals and it also has to do with the availability of firearms,” Chong said. “We are a country that is protected under the Second Amendment. Our people like firearms. When I first started as a police officer, we were talking about handguns and we were talking about shotguns and we were talking about hunting rifles. Now, people get semi-automatic AR-15s and military-style assault rifles. The weapons have gotten more advanced, the ammunition has gotten more deadly.” Chong said the “run, hide and fight” scenario is an important mindset should people find themselves in a life-threatening mass shooting situation, which he suggests people need to realize could happen anywhere, at any time. “Number one, as a customer, when you go into a location you should look to see where the exits are,” Chong said. “I think it’s just good planning to know where you can run to besides running back out the same

As a business, your employees should be trained for something like this.” Chong said that the “hide” part of “run, hide, fight” is that there needs to be a place to hide from a shooter, preferabley a safe room designed to protect occupants. “That safe room should be locked from the inside and not have windows and if you have to hide you can bring customers inside that safe room and lock that safe room from the inside,” Chong said. “If you find yourself where you can no longer run and you can no longer hide, then your last resort is to get up the courage and get some kind of weapon. If you can get a couple of other people to help you, attack because you are basically fighting for your life.” Chong said that a spray bottle of bleach or some other harsh chemical could be turned into a weapon in a desperate situation. “You spray him in the eyes with bleach or hit him across the head with something heavy. You’re basically fighting for your life. That is the last resort,” Chong said. “The first resort is when you go inside any business, the first thing you should do, and it’s unfortunate that we have to think this way, is in your mind look for a way to escape other than the front door that you walked in.” Chong said that it is important to make an emergency call to the police as quickly as possible. He said that in many cases people have actually assumed that someone else would be dialing 911 and used their WCBJ
David Chong cellphones to make calls to relatives instead of notifying authorities that an attack was underway. “People do panic,” Chong said. “Immediately, immediately call 911 so we can get there. I’ve been at scenes of mass shootings where people called loved ones and said they expected the business would call 911. The more that phone calls are flood-
ing in the more we know that it’s active and real and if we can get a description safely of the person doing the shooting and where they may be … the responding officers can immediately look for that individual. If you say the shooter is in the dairy aisle, a male, white, in camouflage, they know where to go and who to look for. We go toward the sounds of the gunshots.”

Renovations planned at Stratford medical building Aspect Health, a real estate advisor, investor and developer focused on the health care hospitality sector, is redeveloping Stratford’s 2909 Main St., a 20,222-square-foot medical office building. According to a statement issued by the Westport-based company, Aspect Health has “invested in this speculative development to bring the building standard up to a Class-A concierge health care designed facility.” The renovations will include new parking lots, sidewalks, curbs, landscaping and site lighting, the replacement of the 50-ton rooftop HVAC
unit, a new elevator cab interior and upgraded common areas. Aspect Health also acquired an adjacent site to expand the parking to five spaces per 1,000 square feet to enhance the future patient and care provider experience. “This is our first foray into southern Fairfield County and we’re excited to improve this facility to serve the needs of the community and attract top-tier health care providers,” said Christopher Smith, founder and CEO, Aspect Health. “Our research-informed design will undoubtedly better serve the future patients, families, physicians and staff in the area.”
Startup helps cops solve cold cases A newly launched White Plains-based company is planning to partner with law enforcement agencies for solving
cold cases through genetic genealogy services. Coast to Coast Genetic Genealogy Services will provide forensic genetic genealogy for the identification of suspects in homicide and sexual assault investigations, as well as unidentified remains cases, including infant and child remains. The company plans to provide educational services for law enforcement agencies that want to learn more about forensic genetic genealogy practices, and it will also provide traditional genetic genealogy work for adoptees or foundlings requiring advanced expertise. The company’s founders — Cairen Binder, Tracie Boyle and Harmony Vollmer — have a longstanding history of collaboration with law enforcement to solve cold cases through their volunteerism with the nonprofit organization DNA Doe Project, most notably in the historic identification of Francis Wayne Alexander, victim of serial killer John Wayne Gacy.

A
May 9 webinar presented Norwalk residents with a preview of proposals for how the city might better use the city’s riverfront. Much of the meeting focused on potential rezoning options in what are currently industrial sections in Norwalk north of the Walk Bridge. The presentation was a joint production between the Bostonbased firm Utile Architecture & Planning and Ninigret Partners, a Rhode Island-based economic consulting firm. Representatives of the town’s planning and zoning board were also in attendance. “The goal of this planning process is to streamline and modernize industrial zoning with the intent to preserve and enhance the character, improve quality of life and promote economic development,” said Zoë Mueller, an urban planner with Utile. Mueller described one of the key goals of the program was developing a balanced public policy while the city prepares for the future. “This is related to a lot of other ongoing planning processes both in terms of the comprehensive zoning for the city of Norwalk as well as more specific infrastructure and capital investment plans,” she said.
What does the future hold for Norwalk’s industrial waterfront? While some of those viewing the webinar viewers voiced confusion at the choice of Zoom instead of an in-person meeting, Mueller was able to demonstrate the advantage of format through an instant poll. While there was little change between the responses of those who attended the most recent meeting and the first meeting in a series of three webinars about the study, it still proved useful for refining insights. “Based on all of the engagement we’ve done so far, there’s a couple things that have bubbled up,” Mueller said while sharing the results, noting strong public interest in public access and open space along the Norwalk River with a preference for land uses that provide environmental benefits. Some spots along the waterfront, particularly a sparsely used asphalt plant near the head of the river, drew broad agreement from survey respondents as sites for new uses. As a result, the plans were adjusted from the original proposals for a broad rezoning of the waterfront to a site-specific set of approaches. Generally, the plans trended toward reducing the presence of heavy industrial operations. Light industrial and “artisanal” work that can be done alongside residential spaces made up the bulk of the proposed rezoning, with marine commercial space in areas more out of

That information was used to synthesize recommendations for zoning revisions that would help businesses and uses that require access to the water maintain that access. An example of balancing those needs is the proposed “marine commercial mixed-use” concept. Designed specifically for use along Water Street, the goal of this concept would be to help existing businesses such as marinas and yacht clubs stay on the water while converting the 245 feet closest to the street into mixed-use zoning. Under this concept, the buildings along the street would create
retail opportunities on the first floor with direct sidewalk access along Water Street, with parking behind and under the rest of the structure, which would be raised at least one story above ground. In the event of flooding, this means that only the parking lot of the structure will be submerged, while the retail at the extreme edge is likely to be spared and the offices or housing above the lot will remain entirely clear. According to Mueller, this design combined with street level improvements along Water Street such as a protected bike lane, more greenery and preserving sightlines to the waterfront can help create a more
vibrant street-life with real economic benefits for the city while improving flood resilience. However, some of those watching the webinar voiced their opposition to this plan, complaining that the proposed buildings appeared blocky and ugly. “I think there’s some confusion about the aesthetics of the diagrams,” said Tim Love, a founding partner at Utile, in response to the criticism. “Those are just what we call ‘sugar cube’ assets we use to help visualize site plans and the total area coverages. There won’t be large, smooth yellow buildings built along Water Street any time soon.”
Monroe seeks purchase of Catholic school property BY PHIL HALL Phall@westfairinc.com
T
he town government of Monroe is in negotiations with St. Jude Parish and the Diocese of Bridgeport for the potential purchase of the former St. Jude school property, which would be renovated as a local community center. Monroe First Selectman Ken Kellogg said a memorandum of understanding (MOU) will be presented to the Town Council for a vote at its May 23 meeting. Under the terms of the MOU, the town’s final purchase price would not exceed $2.3 million.

St. Jude Parish would continue to have access to the parking lot and, for a period of time, access to certain areas of the building and certain municipal functions could also be relocated to the property. “This MOU will confirm the desire of both parties, while allowing us to conduct additional due diligence, as we work towards the formation of a final and more detailed purchase agreement,” said Kellogg. “Ultimately, the purchase will absolutely require further approvals from Town Council, the Board of Finance and ultimately at a Town Meeting as required by Town Charter.”
Foreclosure filed on City Center garage in White Plains BY BILL HELTZEL Bheltzel@westfairinc.com
A
bank and a municipal bond insurer are trying to compel the Westchester Industrial Development Agency and an affiliate of Kite Realty Group to sell part of City Center parking garage in White Plains to satisfy a debt. Wilmington Trust, the representative of the investors who bought the bonds that financed the garage, and ACA Financial Guaranty Corp., Rye, the insurer, sued for partial foreclosure on the parking garage May 11 in Westchester Supreme Court. The IDA owns the garage and borrowed funds to finance the bonds, according to the complaint. LC White Plains, a Kite Realty affiliate, is responsible for paying off the bonds. Last year, LC White Plains defaulted on the garage bonds, according to an Oct. 22 notice. It owed $1.67 million but paid only
$791,639. Then Wilmington Trust used the last $197,519 from the debt reserve fund, leaving $680,842 to be paid. As the bond insurer, ACA had to pay the balance to the bondholders. Now the bank and ACA are seeking $934,569 for the shortfall and other expenses. They are asking the court to order the sale of one of three sections of the garage, known as the air parcel, to pay off the debt. They also want authorization to sell the rest of the garage if LC White Plains continues to default on bond payments. As of October, nearly $12.6 million in bonds were outstanding. The garage is part of the City Center complex in downtown White Plains, including the Trump Tower and The Lofts, built by Cappelli Enterprises. In 2003, the IDA issued nearly $27.25 million in taxable revenue bonds to finance the garage and the city of White Plains issued a separate $24 million bond to finance construction.

and collects parking revenues for LC White Plains, but it is not obligated to pay off the IDA bonds. Nonetheless, ACA has implored the city to increase parking fees or refinance the garage to prevent a default.
Failure to do so, ACA has argued, would damage the city’s strong credit rating and increase borrowing costs for future projects. “This is a moral obligation on the city,” ACA spokeswoman Maria Cheng told the Business Journals last June, and she said municipalities that have walked away from moral obligations have seen their credit ratings worsen. But Karen M. Pasquale, a senior adviser to Mayor Thomas Roach, responded then that the city has no responsibility for the bonds and “cannot allow its taxpayers to take on a burden that does not belong to them.” The IDA and Kite Realty, based in Indianapolis, did not respond to emails requesting comments on the lawsuit. White Plains attorneys Daniel G. Walsh and Joanna Sandolo represent Wilmington Trust. Manhattan attorneys Nathan Abramowitz, Brett Messinger and Chantee Nelson represent ACA.

Pilot program explores psychedelics for PTSD treatment BY JUSTIN MCGOWN jmcgown@westfairinc.com
T
he Connecticut state budget bill recently signed into law by Gov. Ned Lamont includes an innovative carve out to explore the use of psychedelic drugs like MDMA and the mushroom-derived compound psilocybin. The pilot program is the first in the country and will provide around $1.5 million to fund the establishment of facilities for administering the therapy and developing best practices while conducting further research. The program is designed to leverage recent research into how psychedelic drugs combined with targeted therapy and guided usage can be used to treat a number of mental health issues. The primary focus of the pilot program is to provide veterans, retired first responders and health care workers who have PostTraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). The lead sponsor for the bill, who served as the basis of the budget provision and the chief advocate for its inclusion, was Rep. Michelle Cook (D-Torrington), who said she was motivated out of concern for veterans and their families, a topic which hits close to home — both of Cook’s grandfathers, her father, an uncle,
Psilocybin mushrooms. Photo by Michael M. / Pixabay her son-in-law and her nephew all either joined or are currently serving with the military. “One thing that compelled me,” she said, “was the amount of lives that we lose to suicide when folks cannot find the help and assistance that they need to make it through their everyday life’s journey.” It seemed wrong to Cook that the people that protected and served society were unable to enjoy the benefits of being a functioning member of the same society. “We had a Navy SEAL and his wife who submitted testimony,” Cook said, “and so many other veterans
and active military folks, as well as police officers and firefighters that have seen such trauma that many of the other treatments and therapies don’t work. We shouldn’t lose our veterans to suicide because we can’t figure out a way to help them.” Cook said she was also proud to have the state both provide needed help to the protectors of the community while also blazing a path for other states to follow. She added that the decision to throw her support behind the program was comparatively easy “when you have a couple of generals that are working with you, one also a doctor and the other
has worked with the White House for years. When they bring you valuable information and experience, I think it’s worth listening to.” One of those generals, Martin R. Steele, a retired three-star lieutenant general in the U.S. Marine Corps, co-founded Reason for Hope in 2018, an organization focused on advancing the cause of using psilocybin, MDMA and other psychedelics as a course of treatment, but also to combat the stigma against their use. “For far too long, the men and women of the armed services have had to carry the mental and emo-
tional burdens of combat without access to effective treatments,” said Steele, who serves as the organization’s CEO, in a press statement issued with the announcement of the pilot program. “Psychedelic therapy represents a breakthrough for Veterans and civilians alike to heal and lead productive lives. We have a duty, responsibility and urgency to help all those suffering from trauma. I commend the governor’s office and leaders in the legislature for the life-saving action they have taken through this landmark legislation.” Brett Waters, the other co-founder of Reason for Hope, pointed to recent Johns Hopkins University research as an indicator that the time for a more thorough exploration of the treatment method has come. The research showed a treatment with psilocybin was effective in relieving major depressive disorder symptoms in patients for up to a month, and under the right conditions could last for more than a year. “The complexities of psychedelic-assisted therapy require that we construct a regulatory framework and collect real-world evidence treating more complex patients to inform stakeholders of the nuances to delivering effective care, and these policies accomplish that” said Waters in the press statement.

Monroe retail plaza sells for $6 million
Westport retail property listed for $18 million
The retail property 1200 Post Road East Westport in has been listed for sale at $18 million. The property is a 58,196-square-foot shopping center consisting of four separate buildings set facing the Route 1 thoroughfare. The plaza is 100% leased and is anchored by Crate & Barrel, which takes up nearly two-thirds of the property; complementary health and wellness tenants fill out the remainder of the leased units. Cushman & Wakefield’s Capital Markets Group is the listing agent for the sale.
A 14,560-square-foot net-leased retail property in Monroe tenanted by Walgreens has been sold for $6 million. Marcus & Millichap coordinated the transaction on behalf of the seller, 275 Monroe Turnpike LLC, and secured the undisclosed buyer. “This Walgreens at 275 Monroe Turnpike is one of the highest-performing locations throughout the state of Connecticut, which led to a significant amount of demand for the property,” said Nick Geaneotes, investment manager at Marcus & Millichap. “The all-cash purchaser was a private company with national real estate holdings in trophy locations. The seller — who plans to move the equity to Florida and purchase multiple longterm single-tenant properties via a 1031 exchange — had owned the property for many years and was extremely pleased to see the property transfer to such a qualified buyer. Both teams were a pleasure to work with during this transaction.”

HUDSON VALLEY Dutchess housing needs through 2040 studied BY PETER KATZ Pkatz@westfairinc.com
D
utchess County has prepared a new Housing Needs Assessment that analyzes what has happened in recent years in the county and projects what will be needed in the way of affordable housing for the next 20 years. The last time the county did a complete housing needs assessment was in 2008. Among the trends that have contributed to the current housing situation are the leveling off of population growth while the median age in Dutchess County continues to rise. The study suggested that as many older residents choose to age in place, the number of homes available for younger families looking to buy into the housing market tightens. The study also found that average household size continues to decline, leading to the creation of more households that are smaller in size. “Income growth has lagged behind housing costs, particularly for many renters and lower-income households, resulting in more cost-burdened households,” the study said. It found that as more households with higher incomes are taking up residency in Dutchess, there is price pressure that affects the lower end of the market. The study said that more than 15,000 housing units have been added to the county’s inventory during the past 20 years. More of them have been single-family homes. It found that vacancies at larger apartment developments in the county during 2020 and 2021 dropped below 1%. “Lagging renter incomes have meant a substantial rise in the share of renters that spend more than 30% of their monthly incomes on housing … 52% of renters are now in that position. Renter households earning $35,000 to $50,000 have experienced the sharpest change. with 71% now cost-burdened compared with just 10% in 2000.” The study concluded that renters earning less than $50,000 a year should be the focus of creating additional housing stock. It noted that at about the time Covid started having an impact, the county was facing an historically low inventory of homes for purchase, a general increase in demand for single-family homes and a specific increase in the number of millennial households in the county. “Whatever has been going on in the Dutchess housing market in recent decades,
Single-family neighborhood east of Poughkeepsie. Satellite photo via Google Maps. the reality in 2022 is that thousands of households struggle to afford their housing costs,” the study said. In looking to the future, three different scenarios were reviewed. Two of the three concluded that Dutchess would show a net decline in the number of households it had from 1.5% to 7.5% by the year 2040. One of the scenarios suggested there would be 3% growth in the number of households by 2040. “Keeping up with emerging housing needs year after year will be less demanding if Dutchess County continues to grow slowly,” the study said. It concluded that a Dutchess County Housing Trust Fund with at least $2 million per year put into the hopper could fund a large range of activities to help create enough affordable housing to meet projected needs. The assessment suggested that potential uses of trust fund resources could be used to: • Offset the costs of new or upgraded infrastructure, such as water and sewer, to ensure the viability of mixed-income housing developments; • Support land acquisition in cases where site control is a critical issue; • Serve as a flexible form of subsidy to new construction or rehabilitation
projects that meet certain inclusionary conditions; • Serve as a source of funding for affordable housing programs spearheaded by local jurisdictions or not-for-profit agencies; • Support the preparation of generic environmental impact statements to facilitate timely development. The assessment also suggested that municipalities should adopt zoning that encourages land use that allows for a broader array of housing options. It also suggested that municipalities could require that a portion of all new developments be priced as affordable housing. Dutchess County Executive Marc Molinaro said, “This Housing Needs Assessment is our catalyst for change, presenting data, trends and goals both the county and localities must use to help eliminate the gaps between what we currently have in housing and what people can afford. Having a safe and affordable home is the basic foundation of a community and cornerstone for a family. Housing accessibility is a critical need and we will work aggressively to create more workforce housing and opportunity for our residents.” Anne Saylor, the county’s deputy comFCBJ
missioner of housing, said, “This report is the first step in a larger conversation we must have as a community about how we want Dutchess County to look in 2040, and what role housing plays in that vision. While the public is often concerned about the impact of new housing on their community, it is important to realize that failing to create a wider diversity of housing is already changing our community. Looking ahead, the Planning Department is taking an active role in supporting these conversations at both the county and municipal level to aid in the development and implementation of policies that work best for each of our unique communities.” Mary Linge, director of real estate development for Hudson River Housing, a nonprofit that has worked to end homelessness and encourage affordable housing in the county, said, “Taking this fresh look at what has factored into housing affordability challenges locally across Dutchess is key to understanding how best to effect change moving forward. Being able to take this countywide analysis and focus on a variety of productive solutions for both our urban and rural communities will mean that affordability can be addressed more broadly and equitably.” WCBJ

HUDSON VALLEY Imprisoned Rockland Ponzi schemer Hector May ordered to pay couple $31.6m BY BILL HELTZEL Bheltzel@westfairinc.com
A
federal judge has ordered former investments adviser Hector A. May and his firm to pay $31.6 million to one set of victims of his massive Ponzi scheme. U.S. District Judge Vincent L. Briccetti in White Plains issued the default judgment against May for not answering a complaint filed by retired Riverside, Connecticut, music executive Robert Jamieson and his wife, Judith, who sued May in for $18 million in 2019. It is unclear from court records what assets May, 81, of Orangeburg, Rockland County has or how he will pay the Jamiesons, as he is currently residing at the federal prison in Danbury, Connecticut, and is not scheduled for release until 2030. When May was sentenced to prison in 2019, former U.S. Attorney Geoffrey S. Berman described the decades-long Ponzi scheme as “marked by extreme cunning, ruthlessness and utter disregard for the well-being of his victims, including aging couples, close friends, relatives and an employment pension plan.” Judge Briccetti called May’s conduct “appalling, reprehensible and evil.”
May and his daughter, Vania May Bell, 54, of Montvale, New Jersey, ran Executive Compensation Planners Inc. in New City. They persuaded clients to move funds from brokerage accounts to ECP accounts according to court records, claiming that their company could buy bonds directly and avoid transaction fees. Instead of buying bonds, they used client funds for personal expenses, business expenses and payments to some victims to keep the scheme going. They gave their clients phony account statements to trick them into thinking their portfolios were strong. May did not fight the charges. In 2018, he and his wife, Sonia, consented to a demand by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to freeze their assets while May and ECP were being investigated by the U.S. Attorney. When he was charged with conspiracy to commit mail fraud, he pleaded guilty, and at his sentencing he was ordered to forfeit $11.5 million and pay restitution of $8 million. Vania Bell has pleaded guilty on March 29 and is awaiting sentencing. The Jamiesons, one set of at least 15 victims, had counted May as a friend, according to the lawsuit. May attended the graduations and weddings of their three children,
and when Robert Jamieson was ill in 2015, May visited him in the hospital. But May and his daughter had been scheming since 2001, according to the lawsuit, and siphoning off money for personal expenses such as furs and jewelry and country club dues. The Jamiesons deposited $15 million with May from 1998 to 2015, but by the end of 2017 the value of their brokerage accounts with Securities America Inc. was about $50,000. Judith Jamieson inadvertently unraveled the scheme when, believing that May
was likely to retire soon, she began discussing moving investments to another brokerage firm. She ignored May’s advice not to move the funds, according to the lawsuit, and discovered that there wasn’t much left in the Securities America accounts. They sued May and Securities America Inc. for fraud. The $31.6 million default judgment includes compensatory damages of $20,566,010 and punitive damages of the same amount, for a total of $41,132,020, minus $9.5 million the couple got back from other defendants.

The episode premiered on May 15 on HGTV, with an additional broadcast aired on May 22 at 6 p.m. and more planned for May 25 at 1 p.m., May 29 at 5 p.m. and June 15 at 1 p.m. It will also be available on Amazon Prime and Discovery+ streaming services.
FOCUS ON
BANKING
Study shows digital banking alternatives catching on BY PETER KATZ Pkatz@westfairinc.com
A
ccording to the recently released J.D. Power 2022 U.S. Direct Banking Satisfaction Study, 27% of banking customers in the U.S. use an online-only bank, reflecting the continued growth in popularity for alternatives to traditional retail banks. J.D. Power found that among direct banking customers, satisfaction with their checking and savings accounts is high. A large majority of checking and savings customers, 88%, say their direct bank is easy to do business with and 85% say their accounts do not have hidden fees. Only 6% of checking and savings customers say their direct bank does not put the customer’s interests first.
Among customers of direct banks, the level of customer service provided using telephone and online chats or email is a key element in driving customer satisfaction. Among checking and savings customers, 59% reported they have never had a problem or complaint with their direct bank. Among customers who did experience a problem or have a complaint in the 12 months before participating in the study, 83% said it was convenient to reach customer service and 88% said their most recent problem was resolved. “As so much of our lives continue to shift to digitally based providers, direct banks have been in prime position to gain market share and mindshare by delivering around-the-clock access, along with products that have attractive fee structures and interest rates,” said Paul McAdam, senior
director of banking and payments intelligence at J.D. Power. “Increasingly, we’re seeing the top-performing brands get the personalization formula right by helping customers reduce banking fees and grow their money, and by showing that they’re available to help customers in challenging financial times.” Jennifer White, senior consultant of banking intelligence at J.D. Power, in commenting on another J.D. Power study, this one on U.S. retail banking satisfaction, said, “A customer’s definition of what support from their retail bank looks like is changing rapidly as we enter a new economic cycle and move further along the digital adoption curve. It’s no longer predominately about being fast, efficient or convenient. The preeminent performance metric with the biggest influence on customer satisfaction FCBJ
is ‘supporting customers during challenging times,’ and that means customers are expecting a personalized mix of financial advice, hands-on help with problem resolution and guidance on how to grow their money.” When asked how they would like their bank to personalize their banking experience, 46% of customers said they want help in avoiding fees and 37% said they want to receive account alerts. Among customers who pay bank fees, such as fees for overdrafts or low balances, 61% either did not know or were unsure whether their bank had made any changes to its overdraft fee policy. The study was based on responses from 101,587 retail banking customers of the largest banks in the U. S. regarding their experiences with their retail bank. WCBJ

New York Fed chief defends central bank’s handling of inflation crisis BY PHIL HALL Phall@westfairinc.com
J
ohn C. Williams, president and CEO, defended the Federal Reserve’s response to the historically high inflation rates burdening the country, stating that the central bank is properly using monetary policy to bring the difficult economy back under control. Speaking on May 10 at the NABE/Bundesbank International Economic Symposium in Germany, Williams identified the Federal Reserve’s “dual mandate of price stability and maximum employment. Although the task is difficult, it is not insurmountable. We have the tools to return balance to the economy and restore price stability, and we are committed to using them.” Williams noted that inf lation “has increased rapidly and

dramatically to levels last seen in the early 1980s — a year ago, overall inflation, as measured by the percent change in the personal consumption expenditures price index, was 2.5%. In March, it was 6.6%.” Williams identified what he described as the “three major imbalances” fueling high inflation to the point that it has overheated the economy. The first was a significant spike in consumer demand for certain categories, particularly durable goods and housing, which has created a seller’s market with higher-than-normal prices created when demand outstripped supply. The second major imbalance is in the labor market, where demand also outpaced supply. “The ratio of job vacancies to the unemployed is near its all-time high, workers are quit-

ting jobs at a record rate, and employers are bidding up wages,” he stated. “This sizzling hot labor market is also related to the imbalance between demand and supply for goods and housing, as businesses seek to hire more workers to help meet the high demand. And labor supply shortages and rising labor costs are contributing to price pressures across a wide range of goods and services.” The third imbalance Williams identified was the global ramifications of the lopsided supply-demand seesaw that contributed to supply chain problems. Overseas crises, including Russia’s war in Ukraine and China’s Covid lockdowns constrained the global supply of commodities. “With clear signs of demand exceeding supply and an economy running too hot, the primary focus of monetary policy is to turn down the heat and restore price stability,” Williams said. “Although we are facing highly unusual and challenging circumstances, I am confident we have the right tools to achieve our goals. “In fact,” he added, “we have an advantage over previous inf lationary episodes: Our monetary policy tools are especially powerful in the very sectors where we see the greatest imbalances and signs of overheating — such as durable goods and housing. Higher interest rates will cool demand in these rate-sensitive sectors to levels better aligned with supply. This will also turn down the heat in the labor market, reducing the imbalance between job openings and available labor supply.” William insisted the Fed’s strategy of raising the target range for the federal funds rate is key to solving the problem. The funds rate has already been hiked by 75 basis points this year and Williams anticipated “ongoing increases in the target range will be appropriate.” He also noted that beginning on June 1, the central bank will start reducing the size of its holdings of U.S. Treasury securities and agency debt and agency mortgage-backed securities. Williams stated the “reduction of the balance sheet will play out over the next few years.” “Our monetary policy actions will cool the demand side of the equation,” he said. “I also expect that over time, the factors contributing to supply shortages will be resolved, so that some of the rebalancing will be accomplished through increases in supply, both in the United States and around the world.”

Benjamin Seidel, D.O.
CONCUSSION MANAGEMENT PRACTICE AT BURKE Burke Rehabilitation Hospital in White Plains has announced the launch of a new Concussion Management Practice led by a team of highly qualified physicians specializing in brain injury or sports medicine and neuropsychologists to complement its existing therapy program for patients suffering from concussion. The practice includes a physical evaluation by a physical medicine and rehabilitation specialist and a psychological intake conducted by a neuropsychologist to assess concerns from a cognitive and emotional perspective. Appropriate treatment options and recommendations are presented after the completion of both examinations.
“Although the vast majority of people who suffer a concussion will heal without therapeutic intervention, the very small subset of people with prolonged concussive symptoms will benefit from further evaluation by our team,” said Jamie Twaite, Ph.D., a neuropsychologist at Burke. Benjamin Seidel, D.O., who specializes in brain injury rehabilitation and concussion management at Burke, commented, “Meeting with a physical medicine and rehabilitation physician after a concussion can help a person recover more efficiently and early interventions can be prescribed when indicated….” For more information, visit burke.org.

50 YEARS IN FAMILY DIAMOND BUSINESS When Lewis Baribault of Glastonbury, Connecticut, was 16 years old, he dreamed of becoming a motorcycle mechanic. But persuaded by his uncle, Philip Baribault Sr., owner of Baribault Jewelers, he switched to becoming a watch mechanic. Now, 50 years later, the Baribault family celebrated his milestone anniversary in the family business at a special event on April 23 at Rooftop 120 in Glastonbury. “I always loved working with my hands and ended up going to watchmaking school and loving it as much as I loved mechanics, so I stayed working at Baribault Jewelers,” Lewis Baribault explained. “However, running a successful jewelry business also takes a savvy mind for managing money, marketing and leading a team of staff, in addition to jewelry-making skills and keeping up with fast-paced industry trends.” He took over the jewelry store located on Rankin Road in Glastonbury in 1988 and today he and his three children Christina Baribault Ortiz, Raeann Baribault-Schwartz and Lewis Baribault III have kept this a fam-

ily-owned business after almost 75 years since its establishment. As he reflects on his long career, some of the biggest changes he has witnessed in the industry are the effects of companies selling jewelry online and the birth of lab created diamonds.
As for the future, he said, “I love what I do, so it never feels like work. I will continue to work and be active in our business and also enjoy the fact that my children can professionally run our business, so I can choose to enjoy myself on a golf or fishing trip.”

Assisted Living Services Inc. (ALS) in Cheshire and Westport, Connecticut is converting its monthly $5,000 Platinum Caregiver Award for one outstanding employee into a $1,000 award for five employees each month in response to an employee and client survey. The program will culminate in December with the selection of one Ultimate $5,000 Platinum Caregiver. “We are proud to recognize additional caregivers with a financial reward as they continue to display unwavering dedication to our clients,” said Mario D’Aquila, MBA and chief operating officer of the family-owned homecare agency. “It was incredibly difficult each month to select just one staff member.”

MAY 23, 2022
D’Aquila explained the decision to revamp the program is based on the feedback of select caregivers in a December 2021 focus group about ALS company benefits and rewards programs. Previously, one winner was chosen after clients were called at random by Homecare Pulse, a third-party survey company, to measure ALS customer satisfaction. The caregiver with the highest quality score won the Platinum Caregiver Award. Since January 2022, caregivers have been given several new ways to win. “This program is a tangible expression of thanks to our essential caregivers for making a positive difference in our seniors’ lives.” FCBJ

SENATOR AIDS IN SECURING $2.4 MILLION FROM NYS The New York State Legislature awarded $2.4 million to the state’s 211 Helpline network, operated by local United Ways, to ensure that these community resource centers continue to connect individuals with health and human service needs to the right resources. The number of inquiries in 2021 was up 153% over 2019. State Sen. Peter Harckham (District 40), who represents communities in Westchester, Putnam and Dutchess counties, sponsored the bill into the budget. “211 is the ultimate example of shared services and public-private partnerships,” said Harckham. “It is a good investment of public dollars to make sure that someone is there to assist those in need to find the government services and nonprofit assistance available….” “With $2.4M in state support, we will be able to be a resource for people in need every day of the year, every hour of the day,” said Hugh Perry, president of the United Way of New York State. “We will also continue our ongoing efforts to make 211 easy to use by those seeking help.” “This funding will help 211 community resource centers throughout the state meet the demand from those asking for food, mortgage and rent assistance or other basic needs…,” said Tom Gabriel, president and CEO of United Way of Westchester and Putnam, which operates the 211 Hud-son Valley and Long Island community resource center from its White Plains location.

TWO MORE IMPORTANT GIFTS FOR BRUCE The Bruce Museum in Greenwich recently announced a major promised gift of two outstanding works on paper by Pablo Picasso and Henri Matisse from Greenwich resident and longtime Bruce Museum supporter William L. Richter. Picasso’s Bouquet des Fleurs (1909-10) and Matisse’s Autoportrait (1944) will be exhibited for the first time in the William L. Richter Art Wing when the newly expanded Bruce Museum opens in spring 2023. Both works bracket the high period of European Modernism and underscore the direction for the New Bruce set by Susan E. Lynch, museum executive director, and CEO Robert Wolterstorff to focus on the trajectory of Modernism, from the Impressionists in France and the United States to the global phenomenon of contemporary art in our
own time. “It is my honor to donate these works to the Bruce Museum in honor of Robert Wolterstorff and his vision for the New Bruce,” said Richter. “Picasso and Matisse are foundational figures of Modernism and I specifically chose these works as an affirmation of the continued growth of the collection and my faith in his vision for the future.” Richter has also made a lead $15 million gift toward the new Art Wing that will bear his name. Located in Bruce Park overlooking Greenwich Harbor, the Bruce Museum is a community-based, world-class institution that offers a changing array of exhibitions and educational programs to promote the understanding and appreciation of art and science.

A “speakeasy room” complete with blackjack tables delighted guests at The Tiny Miracles Foundation’s annual gala “Miracles… And All That Jazz” on Friday, May 6.
The Tiny Miracles Foundation’s annual gala on May 6 in support of the organization’s mission to support the families of premature babies in Fairfield and New Haven counties brought in $300,000.

SPRING HOMEFRONT DAYS Across 14 Connecticut towns and cities, participants from 16 local corporate, civic and faith-based groups rolled up their sleeves Saturday, May 14, ushering in the return of Spring HomeFront Days for the first time since the pandemic. In this 35th HomeFront season, local residents sought to repair the homes of 70 low-income older adults, persons with disabilities, veterans, single-parent households and families in transitional crisis this year. Since Covid’s onset, more than 100 local vulnerable families have found critical home repair assistance for free through HomeFront. One group residence managed by STAR Inc., Lighting the Way in Norwalk was the beneficiary of the day’s efforts. STAR, which is celebrating its 70th anniversary serving families in the Greater Norwalk area who are impacted by intellectual and developmental disabilities, is headquartered at 182 Wolfpit Ave. in Norwalk. According to the Connecticut Housing Collaborative, 30% of households in the state are considered cost burdened, paying 30% or more of their income to-
ward their mortgage. HomeFront has responded by introducing Covid-compliant Fall HomeFront Days over the past two years and ratcheting up assistance through a new initiative called Critical Pro Repair (CPR). Through this service line, skilled HomeFront staff have teamed up with one or two pro volunteers to deliver crucial exterior repairs. FCBJ

CARING FOR YOUR SKIN AS YOU AGE Healthy, younger looking skin is the goal of many and often includes elaborate skin care routines. In fact, a recent survey found that more than 1 million Americans spent $500 or more on skin care products in a three-month period. While skin care products play an important role in keeping your skin looking its best, your lifestyle choices can impact your skin’s health — both positively and negatively. Sun exposure and poor nutrition can leave your skin feeling dull and dried out, while staying hydrated and eating a variety of fruits and vegetables can help your skin glow.
NATURAL WAYS TO KEEP YOUR SKIN LOOKING YOUNGER
No matter what stage of life you are in, taking care of your skin is important. Here are three simple steps you can take
to keep your skin looking and feeling healthy: Eat a healthy diet Some foods contain antioxidants and other nutrients that can benefit your skin. Drop these superfoods into your grocery basket on a regular basis for healthierlooking skin. • Oily fish like salmon, mackerel and herring are rich in omega-3 fatty acids that can help keep skin moisturized. • Colorful vegetables like sweet potatoes and carrots are great sources of beta carotene, which can act as a natural sunscreen. • Tomatoes are full of lycopene, another nutrient that can help prevent sun damage and wrinkling. In addition to what you eat, make sure you drink plenty of water to stay hydrated.
The amount needed varies depending on your fitness level, age, gender and more — so listen to your body. Protect yourself from the sun By now, most know the perils of prolonged sun exposure. If you are planning to spend time in the sun, try to avoid the middle of the day when the sun’s rays are the most damaging. When you’re outside, wear a hat, a lightweight long-sleeve shirt and sunscreen with an SPF (sun protection factor) of at least 30 that you reapply regularly. Wearing sunscreen even on cloudy days is vital, and don’t forget to protect your lips with a sunscreen lip balm. Follow a skin care regimen Your skin care regimen doesn’t need to include expensive products to be effective. The following are some basic
building blocks of a skin care routine. • Use a gentle cleanser on both your face and body. Avoid products that contain alcohol, feel dry on your skin or are gritty. • Keep your shower water temperature warm but not hot, which can over-dry skin. • Apply face moisturizer and body lotion in the morning and in the evening. While genetics play a large role in skin health, simple changes to your physical and lifestyle choices can help alleviate common skin problems that older adults often face.
