RXR SEES COMMUNITY SUPPORT AS CONSTANT IN A CHANGING REAL ESTATE WORLD

CEO, Scott Rechler, who for many years has been active in community and government affairs. Among the organizations with which he’s been involved are: the Long Island Children’s Museum; the Tribeca Film Institute; the Feinstein Institutes for Medical Research; the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey; the Regional Plan Association; the MTA; and the 9/11 Memorial. In New Rochelle, where RXR has been master developer for the city’s downtown revitalization, the company established a Covid Relief Fund with $1 million in seed money to help the city’s residents, businesses and nonprofits. This month, it announced a new $500,000 grant program in New Rochelle. There was a July 1 deadline to apply for a grant. “The pandemic exacerbated the need for impactful and meaningful programs to support New Rochelle’s children and families,”

here’s no doubt that RXR Realty is big and getting bigger, but at the same time it reinforces its position as a driving force in real estate development and it also has gone to great lengths to establish itself as a member of the communities in which it is working. RXR’s portfolio now includes 88 commercial real estate properties and investments with a value of approximately $22.6 billion, comprising approximately 30.4 million square feet. It has a multifamily portfolio with about 7,600 units under operation or development. In addition, it controls the development rights for another approximately 3,800 residential units. RXR has more than 500 employees. At least part of the interest the company takes in communities can be viewed in context with the actions of RXR’s chairman and

EXCLUSIVE: Bob Stefanowski details the strategy in his campaign for Connecticut governor BY PHIL HALL Phall@westfairinc.com

n 2018, Republican Bob Stefanowski lost the election for governor of Connecticut to Democrat Ned Lamont in a 49.38% to 46.21% margin. Stefanowski, a former chief executive of financial services companies, including GE Commercial & Industrial Finance and Dollar Financial Group, is back for a second go-round against Lamont. In an interview with the Business Journals, Stefanowski explained why he has thrown his proverbial hat into the polit-

ical ring again and forecasted why this year’s election will turn out in his favor. The first question is an obvious one: Why are you running for governor for a second time in four years? I don’t know how much of my background you know, but I grew up in New Haven. My mom and dad worked at the Southern Telephone Co. for 40 years — they saved for myself and my three sisters to go to school, and I worked at General Electric and Price Waterhouse and some great companies. And I’ve been fortunate to live and raise a

family here. I’ve got three terrific daughters. The state’s been really good to me. At this point in my career, I thought it’d be good to give back. And I think I’ve learned a lot in our state. I’m certainly grateful to our state. And I don’t think kids today have the same opportunities I had when I was growing up. It’s a different environment now with high gas prices and inflation, lack of affordability and crime. And I’d like to get Connecticut back to what it used to be. What were some of the lessons that you learned in the 2018

campaign? Well, one of them is to spend more time in Fairfield County. I didn’t spend enough last time and it’s one of the many reasons I chose Laura Devlin as my running mate — she is a Fairfield County representative who knows people there. I look forward to working with Brenda Kupchik and Fred Camillo and all the mayors down there to get to know the people better. I think the second thing is a broader platform. Taxes are a big deal in Connecticut, but it’s not just taxes — it’s utility bills, it’s the cost of gasoline, it’s

the cost of groceries, the added taxes that the governor has put on prepared foods and other things that is stretching people these days. The third one is public safety, particularly with the rise in homicides that we see in Bridgeport, Hartford, New Haven and other places. We’ve seen juvenile crime with respect to stealing cars and catalytic converters, and I don’t think Connecticut is where it should be. So we’re going to come up with a much broader platform this time, get out there more, get our message directly to the people.

Cugine’s Italian brings an old-school dining experience to Stamford

ugine’s Italian, located in Stamford’s Harbor Point on 121 Towne St., had its grand opening on June 10, with a preview dinner for the media held on June 8. The restaurant is co-owned by John and Morgan Nealon, who also own The Lila Rose and Taco Daddy, also at 121 Towne St. Rick O’Connor, who had gained experience over the years in Japanese restaurant Kawa Ni in Westport, Moderne Barn in Armonk and Marea in Manhattan, is also a co-owner of the new restaurant and its executive chef. “He’s worked hard to create a fresh and seasonal ingredient-driven menu featuring many familiar favorites, but also many new dishes,” said Morgan Nealon of Chef O’Connor and his abilities. In contrast to the modern styling and conventionally inviting atmosphere of neighboring Taco Daddy, Cugine’s Italian goes for a significantly subdued, old-school presentation: dim lighting courtesy of chandeliers, green-and-gold tables and chairs, rows of blackand-white photographs in the back and a portrait of Frank Sinatra exiting a helicopter with drink in hand are designed to transport guests back to a bygone era of dining. Chef O’Connor served a variety of dishes to those in attendance, including a seafood dish of the crudo variety: tuna foie with shaved frozen foie, torched, pickled strawberry. Lobster was served in the form of grilled langoustines with fennel and citrus salad and gremolata. Patrons of the preview dinner were also treated to meatballs served with parmesan, marinara sauce and breadcrumbs. Pasta offerings included wild boar gnocchi; spaghetti boia served with egg yolk, chili flakes, marinara, cherry tomatoes and parsley; and ricotta cavatelli pesto served with basil, garlic, cream and parmesan. Guests also dined on zucchini shaved raw and grilled with mint salsa verde; spinache and ricotta crespelle; and branzino served with roasted potato wedges, roast-

“On the beverage side, I leaned into my background to put together a menu of refined, yet familiar cocktails that will complement Chef Rick’s dishes,” Morgan Nealon said. This included Balthazar, composed of gin, Lillet, lemon and

Westchester sues to get back $2.6M subsidies for abandoned affordable housing project

Bheltzel@westfairinc.com

n 2016, when Westchester County was under a federal mandate to develop affordable housing in affluent communities, the county made a $2.8 million deal to subsidize construction of 14 apartments in Pleasantville. The apartments were never completed. Now Westchester is demanding $2.6 million from the developer, Migi Asset Acquisition LLC, Long Island City, in a complaint filed last month in Westchester Supreme Court. Westchester paid $1.8 million for a vacant structure at 98 Washington Ave. near the center of the Pleasantville business district, and then sold it to Migi for $1. The government, under the administration of county executive Robert Astorino, also agreed

to pay Migi $993,000 to partially cover the costs of gutting the structure and building 14 rental apartments. The deal was even more lucrative to Migi than the county’s lawsuit lets on. The complaint does not say from whom the county bought the property. According to property records, it was Migi. Hudson City Savings Bank had bought the property for $1,425,000 in a 2013 foreclosure sale. Migi bought it from the bank a year and a half later for $1,150,000. So when Westchester bought the property from Migi for $1.8 million and sold it back to Migi for $1 on the same day, the company realized a 57% profit of $649,999. The county’s lawsuit also does not explain how Migi was selected for the project. The company is managed by Peter Aytug, a New York real estate investor who founded York

Funding, according to a LinkedIn profile, and who has closed $5.8 billion in short-term commercial loans. The Pleasantville plan was to create apartments for households with incomes from 50% to 60% of the county’s median income, according to covenants agreed to by Migi, Aytug and the county. Initial monthly rents and utilities

would cost tenants about $1,012 to $1,245 for a one-bedroom apartment and $1,510 for a two-bedroom apartment. The project budget was $4.4 million. The county’s share would have been 63%, not including Migi’s profit from selling the property to the county, and 78% if the profit is included. The apartments were not

done by a December 2018 deadline, and at Migi’s request the deadline was extended to June 30, 2020. The county says Migi has drawn $788,533 from the $993,000 subsidy and has mortgaged the property for $2.2 million. But the building permit expired in February 2021, the complaint states, and the developer has not tried to renew it. Westchester claims that Migi abandoned the project; has failed to maintain or secure the premises, resulting in damages inside and outside; and is delinquent on property taxes and utilities. The county accused Migi of breach of contract and unjust enrichment. It is demanding $1.8 million for the property and $788,533 for the subsidy payments. Aytug did not respond to an email requesting his side of the story.

Indeed executives consider the future of employment

BY JUSTIN MCGOWN

jmcgown@westfairinc.com s part of the Stamford Partnership’s Tech Hub series, local business leaders and interested parties once again gathered at the Third Place for a discussion between experts in a critical industry. Half Full Brewing’s combination coworking space, event hub and tap room has been the preferred site for the monthly Fireside Chat series, where speakers on matters of business and local governance have a relaxed, free ranging conversation in front of a virtual fireplace. The chat on June 8 was between Nolan Farris, the chief revenue officer, and Maggie Hulce, the executive vice president and general manager for enterprise, from Stamford-based Indeed, the job search and recruiting website. The night’s event was also sponsored by Deloitte, the indus-

try leading professional services network. Michael Griffiths, the principal and lead for learning consulting practice for Deloitte in North America, introduced Hulce and Farris after noting that in his role he oversees research into human capital trends. “Under this topic of the ‘future of work’ we have had a lot of conversations,” Griffiths said, describing the rise of “workforce agency,” or the ability to make decisions about hours and location more generally as well as self-manage on many tasks, as being an increasingly sought-after quality in a workplace. He emphasized the value of conversations on the topic by those who know the trends in job searching the best before introducing Hulce and Farris. Farris began by recounting his 14-year history with Indeed. “I’m Employee 58,” he said, recalling that since that time not only had the company moved FCBJ

WCBJ

from Hoboken, New Jersey, to Stamford, but it expanded to more than 5,000 employees. Farris’ current responsibilities include overseeing all of the revenue generation teams, including sales, client success and scale of business solutions teams. Hulce recalled her own career as well and noted that while she has only been with Indeed for about half as long as Farris, it has become her favorite place to work, eclipsing even her time at Google. Hulce surprised Farris with her first line of inquiry: what was his favorite part of being in the state. “Well, Remo’s is pretty good,” he replied, a shout out to a popular local eatery. “It has a special place in my heart because my wife Mary was raised here and also has an MBA from UConn Stamford. So, when she finished class we would meet there.” Farris and Hulce both dis-

cussed how important the move to Stamford was for the talent pool Indeed could pull from as it grew, which led them to discuss how the company is changing its own hiring processes in a rapidly changing field. “As it relates to Indeed and this concept of skills-based versus job-based hiring, I think there’s a broad recognition of the mismatch between available jobs and the unemployed people that can fill those jobs,” Hulce said. “There are two open jobs for every unemployed person. There’s unprecedented broad recognition that we have to be focused on the skills people have and helping people augment those skills and making sure that you don’t overlook them for some other reason. So as an employer ourselves we have taken college degree requirements off of almost all our jobs.” “We are increasingly trying to make our job descriptions, our

hiring process more focused on the skills that are needed for success in the job and not only past experiences that is similar to it,” she added. Hulce said that increasing automation in these job application processes, with an emphasis on shortening the lead time between qualifying for a job on the basis of skills and having an interview, was also a promising development. Farris shared her excitement by stating, “Think about all that time spent going through a stack of resumes; it takes forever. Figuring out the top 15% that you want to contact, having to call them or email them, waiting for a response, trying to negotiate time when they can meet... so much time is spent on manual tasks of going through that process that we feel can be automate d, which dramatically improves the job seeker experience and the employer experience.”

RXR Realty— Rechler said. “After providing over $1 million to help New Rochelle navigate the pandemic, we’re proud to launch the next phase of our community fund with an allocation of $500,000 to support New Rochelle’s youth.” Other Westchester youth likely will soon be impacted by RXR’s policy of community involvement. The company is preparing to put shovels in the ground for Hamilton Green, a mixed-use project planned for the site of the former White Plains Mall not far from that city’s Metro-North train station. “When we look at how we operate in the communities we’re developing in, the strategies for RXR and our operational philosophy has always been, and even more so today than ever, is ‘doing good and doing well means doing better,’” Joe Graziose, executive vice president of residential development and construction at RXR, told the Business Journals. “What we want to really focus on is not just creating four walls and a building that we’ll put up and walk out of town. We want to make sure that when we build an asset, whether that’s in New Rochelle or anywhere else in Westchester County for that matter, that we are creating a place where people can call home and more importantly a place where RXR can be proud to plant our flag and folks to know that when we plant our flag we’re not just planting it for the three years that it’s going to take to build an asset but we’re going to be there for the long haul.” Graziose said that as RXR was moving into high gear with downtown New Rochelle development, it asked itself how it could do more to engage with the community. When Covid hit, one thing that became obvious was that some youngsters in the community who were prevented from going to school needed the computers and connections for virtual learning. “Not all students were able to effectively learn from home, so what we did was look at providing students with broadband access and iPads and computers,” Graziose said. “That went beyond New Rochelle. It went to Mamaroneck and Yonkers and with this Covid relief fund we were able to deploy dollars to students and teachers and parents alike to help bridge that digital divide and help bridge the tough days of working remotely, learning remotely and really changing the way the community could stick together despite the fact that they had to stay at home.” Graziose said that because of RXR’s designation as the master developer for downtown New Rochelle, it is hyper-focused on New Rochelle as a community but it also is doing similar programs in places like Glen Cove on Long Island where it also has a master development designation. “As we continue to grow our operations in the New York Metro area and nationally,

Joe Graziose we are including similar community funds into all of our budgets moving forward on development,” Graziose said. “Whether that’s a one-building development in White Plains or even in Phoenix, Arizona, where we’re developing, we need to make sure that we have dollars set aside to engage communities and do good in our communities. It’s across our portfolio.” Graziose noted that when it comes to providing community benefits, RXR has not hesitated to work with competitors and told about how a competing developer in New Rochelle at the time, Louis Cappelli, decided to add $250,000 from his company to RXR’s community funding pool. Graziose quoted Cappelli as saying, “I like what you guys are doing, I think it’s important work and I want to join forces with you and when we put our heads together perhaps … we’ll be able to do more together than we would be able to do on our own.” Graziose pointed out that RXR has established RXRVolunteer, an online platform to connect local nonprofits and small businesses impacted by Covid-19 with volunteers from the RXR community of employees, vendors, tenants and investors who can help them WCBJ

He said that the philosophy of doing good for the community will continue to be important for RXR even as the development world is impacted by increasing construction costs, supply chain issues and rising interest rates. “We continue to watch the evolution of new markets. We’re certainly looking at places like the Sunbelt. We recently opened a building in Phoenix and we’re getting ready to open another one there. We’re days away from opening a building in Tampa, Florida,” Graziose said. “We’re really focused on procuring materials as early as possible, getting ahead of our design, working with our lenders and our investors to earmark dollars. We’re more willing today to get creative with our funding sources. What we’re seeing is that as prices rise folks are getting nervous

about whether or not they want to put a shovel in the ground today. For us, if a project makes financial sense to do, we’re going to move forward with it.” Graziose said that RXR has built a reputation for honoring its promises and its community involvement is a part of how it’s viewed. “We want to ensure that when we’re ready to go public with a project that we are capitalized, designed, entitled and ready to break ground,” Graziose said. “Whether it’s folks that want to live in our buildings or folks that work on our projects or folks that are just going to get excited about the new retail activity that’s going to be generated by a new project, we’re making promises to a whole host of folks who we may never even meet and we want to make sure that when we makes promises, we deliver.”

Exclusive— A lot of people who run for office are always talking about how they want to cut taxes. What exactly is your plan for addressing Connecticut’s taxes? One thing we should be doing right now is removing the taxes on gas. Gov. Lamont did get rid of one of the taxes on regular gas, but there’s another one that should go away. We also have a 40-cent tax on diesel fuel, which is very inflationary because the trucks are going to pass that through to consumers in the price of the goods. That diesel tax is expected to go up again before the end of June. So, I really think we should be getting some immediate relief in taxes on gas given where the prices are. Also, I think we should lower the state income tax to deal with inflation because the price of goods and services are going up; we should also get rid of the grocery receipts tax. The amount of money coming into the government is more and more every day. The government is sitting on a $3.5 billion Rainy Day Fund. Well, it is a rainy day — people are struggling to fill up their cars with gas. I think those would be the three that would give people some immediate relief from what we’re going through right now. Gov. Lamont highlights the new businesses that he brings to the state. What is your opinion of his efforts to bring business to the state? And what would you do to not only bring business here, but to ensure that companies like Raytheon don’t leave the state? The companies I talked to are not happy. Number one, there was an unemployment insurance loan that they had to take out in the height of Covid to help fund insurance benefits, and most states have paid that off for small business. Gov. Lamont, with a $3 billion budget surplus, has refused to pay it off. So, you’ve got a $455 million loan where the interest in principle is being assessed to small businesses who are already struggling with fuel prices, and they have to pass that on in the cost of their goods and services. That’s very inflationary. There is also the workforce. Every small business I talk to can’t find enough workers. We need to invest more in the trade schools and training kids, and we need to have more affordable daycare for people because in a lot of cases with daycare it costs a mom or a dad more to go to work than to stay home. So, we need to make that more flexible. Regulation is the third issue I hear about — it just takes forever to get anything done, whether it’s getting a new piece of equipment approved or expanding a factory. We have to streamline the regulatory process

Bob Stefanowski. Contributed photo. so that businesses can react more quickly. What is the role of the governor in addressing inflation, particularly at this point of time? And do you think Ned Lamont is doing anything to acknowledge the high inflation rate that we’re living under? First of all, he’s as responsible as anybody. I call it Biden-Lamont inflation — inflation is caused by excessive government spending and in the state of Connecticut we certainly did our part to add to inflation when we increased the budget by $3.5 billion. Taxes are also inflationary. He likes to talk about a $600 million tax cut, but half of that was temporary and that’s never included. But he raised taxes by $1.7 billion his first year in office — when you put taxes on prepared foods and movie downloads and personal protective equipment that gets passed on to consumers, that’s inflationary.

We still have taxes on gas, which is already at record highs. There’s a lot he could do to help Connecticut get to be more affordable, but for whatever reason he’s unwilling to do it. At the moment, there are no Republicans in the state congressional delegation. In your opinion, why is that? And what do you see happening in this year’s election that might bring Republicans to both the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate? People are not happy with what’s going on in Washington right now — it’s reflected in the president’s approval rating. And the president went from winning Connecticut by a large margin to having about a 40% approval rating in Connecticut. People are ready for a change. People like Jim Himes and Jahanna Hayes have been part of the problem. And most people would predict that nationally we’re going to see an increase in seats in both the House FCBJ

and possibly the Senate with Republicans. I think Connecticut is probably unhappier than more states and I think we’re going to see some change in a positive direction. I would hope that we pick up a couple of seats in the House. Assuming that you win the election this year and you’re running again in 2026, where would you see Connecticut in four years? I think what people are looking for is not somebody to turn it around overnight, but they’re looking for somebody that is going to make some commonsense decisions, invest in law enforcement, try to see where we can make it more affordable to be here and let parents raise their own kids right. I do think we’re going to win this time. It feels different out there. There’s a lot of momentum for change, and we’re going to bring it. WCBJ

Bobby’s Towing in Poughkeepsie accused of predatory tactics

Bheltzel@westfairinc.com New York Attorney General Letitia James has accused a Poughkeepsie towing company of cheating and harassing motorists with bogus fees and predatory tactics. The state seeks to shut down Bobby’s Towing and Recovery and owner Robert Scores until they pay a $100,000 performance bond and correct illegal practices, in a petition filed June 6 in Dutchess Supreme Court. Exhibit in Attorney General vs. Bobby’s Towing

Towing companies are hugely profitable and “woefully under regulated,” Cheryl J. Lee, an assistant attorney general, states in an affidavit, and unscrupulous operators are “financially victimizing the consuming public.” “I’ve done nothing but see or hear all this sh-t for 50 years,” Scores, of LaGrangeville, replied in a brief telephone call. “At this time I have no comment ... but when it comes times I will let you know what’s really going on.” The attorney general says 16 people have complained about Bobby’s since 2013. The

company “wrongfully obtained profits totaling $36,676,” the petition states, and there are likely more victims. The attorney general accused Bobby’s of persistent patterns of abuse: patrolling for illegally parked cars even if not called; towing from private properties when not called; removing cars within minutes of arriving; towing even when the operator was present and willing to move the car or pay a reasonable fee; towing cars that were parked legally; charging excessive fees; falsifying tow receipts and encouraging the operators

to file false insurance claims for reimbursement. The alleged practices violate City of Poughkeepsie laws that require a 20 minute grace period before hooking up a car for towing; allow the operator to pay a $25 fee to disconnect a car from the tow truck, and limit the tow charge to $85 and the storage fee to $50 a day. Scores also made rude, racist and derogatory comments, the petition states. When Ebonee Nash said she would remove her car as Scores was hooking it up to his truck, “he called me a bitch and told me to get the f--k out of his way,” she states in an affidavit, “and even laid his hands on me and pushed me!” Ryan Brooks said he had permission to park his car but would remove it, before Scores hooked it up to his truck. A police officer allegedly conveyed a threat by Scores that he would file a criminal charge against Brooks unless he paid $400, according to Brooks’ affidavit, and he paid $250 in “blackmail money.” Junaid Iqbal said she had permission to park at a fast food restaurant on Fridays when she and her father prayed at a nearby mosque. One day their Jeep was gone when they returned. When they went to Bobby’s yard on Smith Street to get it back Scores allegedly demanded $500 to release it. The attorney general also accused Scores and Bobby’s of preying on tenants of Canterbury Commons and Manchester Gardens outside of the city, where Poughkeepsie city laws do not apply. Boris Yam, the property manager of both complexes, hired Bobby’s to exclusively tow vehicles from Manchester Gardens, the attorney general says, and gave Bobby’s “absolute power to tow vehicles ... regardless of whether or not the tow of the vehicle was justified or authorized.” Yam testified at an examination that the contract authorizes Scores to tow as many cars as he wanted. The attorney general is asking the court to enjoin Scores and Bobby’s from engaging in fraudulent, deceptive and illegal practices ; require them to file a $100,000 performance bond that may be used to establish a restitution fund for defrauded consumers; reimburse vehicle owners and operators for damages, including lost wages; disgorge illegal profits; and pay penalties ranging from $2,000 to $5,000 for each violation. James is also asking for anyone else who believes they were wronged by Bobby’s to file an online complaint with the Poughkeepsie regional office or call 845485-3900.

Trumbull coworking space hosts networking event for small businesses BY JUSTIN MCGOWN jmcgown@westfairinc.com

ocal business owners from across Trumbull and the surrounding communities gathered at Jeff Works in the town’s Hawley Lane Mall on the morning of June 8 to network, meet with community leaders and practice their elevator pitches in a “Shark Tank”-style presentation before a panel of business development experts and representatives of local resource agencies. J.J. Oshins, the chief investment officer for the realty company National Development, sat on a panel and also provided the space at Jeff Works for the event. Jeff Works comprises several storefronts in the mall that have been outfitted as modern office space by National Development. Designed specifically for the increasing number of home-based businesses springing up in smaller cities and towns, Jeff Works has locations in Trumbull and South Plainfield, New Jersey, and is designed to foster the collaborative atmosphere small businesses need to thrive. “Jeff Works really came out of this idea that the nature of work has kind of changed, especially over the course of the pandemic,” Oshins said. “People want more flexibility and they’re looking for places to get out of their house or have a hybrid workspace. We created Jeff Works to be a very affordable place where people can come, whether it’s one day, a whole week, two days a week, they can escape distractions and get work done.” The company name, Oshins explained, comes from Jeff Labs, a Spanish firm, which developed the software that underpins the desk rentals and helps organize the space and events. During opening remarks for the event, Oshins pointed out Jeff Works subscriptions start at $15 and fully equipped personal desks only run $99 a month, both with savings for annual subscriptions, compared to starting costs around $400 for some coworking spaces in New York City. Trumbull First Selectman Vicki A. Tesoro started the proceedings with observations on the value of small business. “We’ve worked hard with our partners to make this a successful day for all,” Tesoro said. “In Trumbull we believe strongly in home-based businesses. They’re an important part of our business community. We want your business to thrive and grow, and when you grow we

Photo by Justin McGown. hope you’ll choose Trumbull to grow in.” Tesoro reminded attendees of homebased businesses that went on to dominate entire industries such as Microsoft and Amazon, and encouraged those gathered to dream big, and not hesitate to call on either her or Rina Bakalar, the town’s director of economic and community development. Bakalar, who served as the master of ceremonies for the event, urged attendees to support each other in the pitches. “We’re here to support one another and see who’s in the room so that we and our panelists can help and support one another in a way that lifts everybody,”

Bakalar said. The business pitches ranged from 3D printed floor lamps and training in public speaking to psychic services and home bakeries. Over a dozen businesses in a diverse set of industries were represented, many of the entrepreneurs also had more than one business in operation. There were two separate panels in attendance, one composed of experts on marketing, branding and social media and another on optimizing access to capital. Valeria Bisellia, the education and training programs adviser for the Connecticut Small Business Development Center, and Ramon Peralta, the foundFCBJ

er and chief brand officer of Sheltonbased Peralta Design, sat on the marketing board; Oshins substituted for another expert who was unable to make it. The capital and financing panel was made up of representatives of local development organizations and both Newtown Savings Bank and Webster Bank. While the bulk of the responses to the pitches were delivered privately to business owners during the networking lunch, many panelists chimed in at times, mentioning connections they had or suggesting that others in the room might be worth speaking to about business-growth opportunities.

MESSAGE

PLATINUM INVESTORS

WHO WILL SHOULDER THE COSTS OF NEW YORK’S CLIMATE ACT? Last week the WCA submitted comments to the N.Y. Climate Action Council’s Draft Scoping Plan. The Council was created to provide a legislative and administrative roadmap for achieving the aggressive statewide greenhouse gas emissions limits set out in the Climate Act of 2019. The Draft Scoping Plan is a polished cut in need of refinement. The State will face serious challenges, considering in particular the need to rebuild our energy complex around renewable fuels and its attendant reliability issues. Notwithstanding those concerns, with the emissions limits now codified and with the ultimate goals decades away, a closed-minded indictment of the Council’s work is simultaneously too late, too early, and misfocused. The question is not “why are we doing this” (essentially relitigating the Climate Act) as much as “how much will it cost and who is going to pay?” By passing legislation without a fulsome understanding of its financial impact, New York’s lawmakers have made a policy decision to decarbonize the state’s economy notwithstanding that impact. Although they may have been compelled to act due to national ineptitude on energy policy, New York now holds a first-mover’s risk on the future of energy. Moreover, the up-front financial burden is largely internal while the climate benefits are diffuse. Even if New York was carbon neutral tomorrow it would have no appreciable impact on global climate change. Accordingly, the price tag needs to be spread widely and borne by the State. Let’s hope it comes up with a plan that doesn’t leave our businesses and residents footing the bill.

Spring Valley businessman accused in $1.6M disaster fund fraud

Bheltzel@westfairinc.com Rockland businessman was arrested June 9 on charges that he ripped off a Covid-19 disaster relief program for $1.6 million loaned to nearly a dozen similarly named entities. A federal grand jury in White Plains indicted Eliezer Scher, 33, of Spring Valley, on one count of wire fraud. Scher entered a plea of not guilty before U.S. Magistrate Judge Judith C. McCarthy. He allegedly falsified applications for loans from the Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL) program administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration. The EIDL program was created to help businesses recover from the economic impact of the Covid-19 pandemic. The funds could be used only for working capital and other normal business expenses. Loan sums were based on gross revenues and the costs of goods sold during the 12 months before Jan. 31, 2020. Businesses could also apply for up to $15,000 in advances that would not have to be repaid. In about four hours on July 13, 2020,

according to the feds, Scher submitted 12 internet applications for $160,000 loans, each including $10,000 in advances and totaling more than $1.9 million. The SBA approved 11 of the 12 applications. Within 52 days, the four hours of work netted Scher $1,648,000, according to the indictment. But the feds claim that Scher falsified the revenues and expenses for each business. And instead of using the funds for business operations, he allegedly bought real estate

WCBJ

and paid credit card expenses. Rockland property records show, for instance, that Scher bought a house on South Madison Avenue, Spring Valley, for $471,000 in November 2020. He transferred the property to a business he controlled and sold it last August for $665,000, a gain of $194,000. The indictment does not explain what drew attention to Scher, but perhaps the similarities of the businesses were a red flag. Ten of the applications were sequentially named “Scher” plus a numeral, for example,

Scher1 Inc. and Scher2Inc. Another is named Scher Realty Group. The only dissimilar name was Truck Your Way Inc. All but one have the same address in Monsey. All claimed to have one employee. The Scher-numbered entities included duplicate purposes: three billing services, three construction companies, two printing and graphic design businesses and two advertising businesses. But Scher could not have imagined the alleged fraud when he incorporated the companies. All 12 were formed between July 2015 and February 2018, according to state corporation records, well before the pandemic and the creation of the EIDL program. Scher was released from custody on posting a $250,000 bond. His attorney, Gedalia M. Stern, did not respond to an email asking for his client’s side of the story. The indictment includes a forfeiture allegation that seeks to seize any of Scher’s property that can be traced to the alleged crime, and if no such property is located, any other property he owns to cover the losses. Assistant federal prosecutor James McMahon is handling the case.

Charter Communications opens new Stamford HQ complex

jmcgown@westfairinc.com une 6 brought the official opening of the new wing of the Charter Communications building at 400 Washington Blvd. in downtown Stamford. Cutting against the trend of many corporations embracing a work-from-home model or flex space, Charter and its employees under the Spectrum brand will be attempting to encourage a return to office with an attractive set of features for 1,700 employees. The gleaming two-building, 900,000-square-foot towers in the heart of the city feature a wide range of amenities for employees, including dining options and state-of-the-art continuing education facilities. It also represents a truly transit-oriented development owing to a walkway directly connecting the offices to the Stamford Railroad Station. The new headquarters building, the largest in the state, is the culmination of efforts that began in 2012. At the time, the company had 16,000 employees and a customer base of around 5 million. Those numbers have expanded to more than 93,000 employees in a wide range of roles serving 32 million customers. The headquarters represented the bulk of a $100 million investment Charter pledged to make in 2017. Gov. Ned Lamont and Stamford Mayor Caroline Simmons joined Tom Rutledge, chairman and CEO of Charter Communications, on stage for a ribbon-cutting ceremony before a crowd of excited employees. Noting that a water fountain and outdoor amphitheater remain to be completed, Rutledge said that it nonetheless represented Charter’s “D-Day.” “Let’s make this dedication day of the facility we envisioned five years ago now, the facility designed to house us as the fastest-growing communications company in the world I think during that time,” he said. Rutledge, who joined Charter’s leadership ranks in 2012, recalled that the company moved to Stamford in 1994 with the acquisition of American Television & Communications (ATC) to create Time Warner Cable. The same things that had prompted ATC to set up shop in Stamford made it attractive for the new company’s headquarters as well. “This was a great place to live in. It was close to major markets, it’s close to transportation, it’s even on a transportation facility, and you can live pretty much any kind of lifestyle you want to when you live in this area. You can live in the city; you can live in the

You can live in Stamford, you can live on the water,” he said before quipping, “You can even live in the trees.” Rutledge also noted Lamont and Simmons represented a connection between local communities and the cable industry: Lamont found his pre-political business success in the world of cable and telecommunications while Simmons’ father owned Simmons Communications and Patriot Media. “I’m sure you had your share of MTV,” Rutledge joked as he introduced Simmons. “The only downside of growing up in a cable family,” Simmons responded as she took the podium, “is that my father had parental controls on every channel, including MTV.” Simmons thanked Rutledge not only for the investment represented by the new headquarters building but also Charter’s philanthropic efforts that provided for job training programs in the area. She also expressed gratitude to the architects and contractors at Building and Land Technology who built and created the property. “They truly are iconic, just stunning

Modern, future-oriented buildings,” Simmons said. “I think that great cities have great architecture and iconic buildings. These are going to add to that iconic fabric of our city; they’re a great symbol for the modern, innovative city that we’re becoming.” Simmons added that Stamford is the “gateway to Connecticut” and that for many people the Charter Communications headFCBJ

quarters may be the first building in the state that many people notice. Lamont recalled how his own career in the cable industry began in a “glorified warehouse” on Long Island, a far cry from the high-tech facility Charter now occupies. “This is a crowning achievement for everything you have done,” the governor said.

HUDSON VALLEY Crow plans speculative 350k sq. ft. warehouse BY PETER KATZ Pkatz@westfairinc.com

plan is in the works to tear down a major part of what remains of the former Dutchess Mall in Fishkill and replace it with a 350,166-squarefoot warehouse. The developer is CHI/ Acquisitions LP, located in Montclair, New Jersey. The CHI name refers to Crow Holdings Industrial. The property is owned by Hudson Properties LLC, located in Pound Ridge. According to Attorney Richard O’Rourke of the Fishkill office of the White Plainsbased law firm Keane & Beane, the plan would involve subdividing the approximately 39.3 acres of land into two parcels. The lot on which the warehouse would be built would be purchased by CHI and would cover 28.9 acres. The remaining lot, 10.4 acres, would be retained by Hudson Properties and would be used for future development. The Dutchess Mall opened in 1974 and was strategically located in the area where Route 9 and Interstate 84 intersected. It was the first shopping mall in Dutchess County. It originally was anchored by two department stores, Mays and Luckey Platt. After a few years, Jamesway opened in the space where Mays had been and Service Merchandise opened where Luckey Platt had been. Those retailers eventually moved out and a flea market opened up in the former Service Merchandise site and a branch of Dutchess Community College took the Jamesway space. The college had signed a 15-year lease for 47,000 square feet of space and still operates there. Also at the northern end of the former mall, near Dutchess Community College, is a Home Depot store. O’Rourke pointed out that the Comprehensive Plan for the town of Fishkill that was prepared in 2009 identified the mall as being “an abandoned and underutilized property” and encouraged its redevelopment. “The warehouse building is proposed in substantially the same location as the existing Dutchess Mall buildings with the associated off-street parking and loading docks,” O’Rourke said. “The site was also carefully designed to minimize any impacts to the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation wetland area at the rear of the property.” O’Rourke said that there would be 215 parking spaces provided in the proposed development, 78 loading docks essentially grouped on two sides of the warehouse, four drive-in ramps and 30 trailer parking spaces. He said that while Fishkill’s Zoning Code

Rendering of the proposed warehouse on the former Dutchess Mall property. would require 387 parking spaces for the project, the developer believes that the 215 spaces being proposed would be adequate. O’Rourke said that the warehouse would be built on speculation and that as of now no tenant has been lined up. He said that two existing driveway entrances off Route 9 would be maintained and a traffic impact study completed in May indicates that the warehouse “is not expected to have a significant adverse impact on the adjacent roadways.” The application for the proposed project was accepted by the Fishkill Planning Board at its June 9 meeting and referred to various boards and commissions, including Dutchess County and the New York State Department of Transportation, as part of beginning the review. Brad Vander Vliet of CHI/Acquisitions said that the company is the development arm of Crow Holdings Industrial, which is based in Dallas. “We’ve been in business since the 1960s and used to be Trammell Crow Companies, which was subsequently sold to CBRE in 2006. The family had spun off and retained ownership of Crow Holdings and Trammell Crow Residential. We’ve built over, I believe, 60 million square feet of industrial space throughout the country,” Vander Vliet said. “We have 12 offices throughout the country. We are well-capitalized. We are WCBJ

We’ve got over $5 billion in assets we retain ownership of and we would be retaining ownership of this asset as well if we are successful in our application.” Trammell Crow Company is an independently operated subsidiary of CBRE. It says it has developed or acquired 2,800 buildings valued at nearly $70 billion and consisting of more than 625 million square feet of space. It bills itself as the largest commercial real estate developer in the U.S. with $19.8 billion in active projects in process, and

an additional $10.1 billion in the pipeline as of March 31, 2022. Anthony Castillo, principal of SESI Consulting Engineers, said that a number of underground detention systems and water treatment systems would be used to control stormwater runoff while also noting that the site has previously been built upon. “The intent is to make sure we do not modify in any way any of the existing drainage patterns,” Castillo said. “We have prepared a fully compliant lighting plan and landscape plan that certainly will meet the intent and purpose of the township code.”

HUDSON VALLEY RBW opens manufacturing and headquarters facility in Kingston

BY PAMELA BROWN BW, an award-winning independent lighting design and manufacturing brand, has begun production in its new $5 million global headquarters and manufacturing and innovation facility located at 575 Boices Lane in Kingston even though renovations to the building that dates from the 1980s have not been completed. “Our expansion to Kingston is a dream come true for our company and a great opportunity to implement our complete vision for RBW,” said Alex Williams, partner and director of growth for the company. He said that adding the 100,000-square-foot facility marks a new chapter of growth in the company’s 12th year. Phase 1 of construction has been completed with order fulfilment taking place from its factory floor. Phase 2, the 22,000-square-foot office space that will house its product innovations and brand operations, has a tentative completion date of mid-August. The space will feature open bench desking, meeting and communal rooms, a cafeteria, exhibition space and phone booths. It will be furnished with RBW’s own LED lighting from its Centro pendant collection, dimming controls, daylight harvesting, skylights and collaborative robotics. “We have long been inspired by some of Europe’s most visionary manufacturing campuses that reflect a thoughtful and holistic approach to planning a company’s footprint,” said Williams. He said that installation of solar panels also is being considered. With assistance from Empire State Development (ESD), RBW is investing more than $5.4 million for acquisition, construction and renovation and the purchase of machinery and equipment for its operations. ESD has awarded RBW up to $547,500 in Excelsior Jobs Tax Credits in exchange for the retention of 35 jobs and the creation of 49 new, local jobs. “Companies like RBW are drawn to vibrant and engaging communities found across the state that support economic growth while providing the assets and infrastructure that appeal to a young and diverse workforce and the dynamic communities in the mid-Hudson region are no exception,” said Empire State Development Acting Commissioner

and President and CEO-designate Hope Knight. “Manufacturing remains integral to the regional economy’s framework, and RBW’s investment is bringing good jobs to Ulster County.” RBW is known for its forward-thinking, technology-driven approach to lighting solutions with products that feature unprecedented shapes and creating subtle upgrades on familiar forms. The company’s broad range of lighting applications have been installed all over the world, from the renowned Noma restaurant in Copenhagen to Fortune 500 company offices across the United States, including Urban Outfitters, Fitbit, Yelp, Uber and high-end hotels across the country. RBW’s Williams noted that the company already is becoming active in community affairs. “In seeking a partner that aligns with our purpose to positively transform environments, communities and lives, we identified Kingston Land Trust,” said Williams. He said that RBW is interested in collaborating with the Land Trust to protect socially and environmentally significant land and address inequities by making land accessible to the community. RBW believes that the Land Trust’s mission aligns with its own building design that emphasizes its natural surroundings, spotlighting a connection to light and air throughout while maintaining a minimal ecological footprint by repurposing an existing structure. Kingston’s Mayor Steven T. Noble welcomed the company by saying, “This type of small/medium size creative manufacturing aligns with Kingston’s economic development goals and is an example of how our city’s reinvestment into Kingston’s economy and our collective quality of life is paying off.” New York State Sen. Michelle Hinchey, whose district includes Kingston, said RBW Studio selecting Ulster County as the home for its new global headquarters “affirms our collective work to establish upstate as a hub of industry and a place where entrepreneurs can build their business, strengthen our local economies, and raise the profile of our whole region in the process. I’m proud to support this momentous expansion, and I thank RBW Studio for recognizing Ulster as a cornerstone of its continued business growth and prosperity.”

Good Things FOUNDATION ANNOUNCES ITS VISION OF HOPE AWARDEES The Access: Supports for Living Foundation Inc. in Middletown will honor its Board Chair Nick Preddice, Partner Affinity BST Advisors, ThinkDifferently Dutchess and Think Differently Orange County, with the Vision of Hope Award at its annual gala Thursday, Sept. 22. The award is given to a person or organization whose work exemplifies and advances the mission, which is to help people live the healthiest and fullest lives possible. Preddice began his financial services career more than 20 years ago with Connecticut Mutual, and later with Prudential and The Mony Group Inc. in New York City. In 2002, he decided to use his experience to build a financial services business from the ground up. Together with Gary San-

cilio, he founded the Affinity Group with a singular vision: to make a difference in the lives of clients, the people they work with and the community. Launched by Dutchess County Executive Marcus J. Molinaro in 2015 and Orange County Executive Steve Neuhaus in 2019, the ThinkDifferently initiative seeks to change the way individuals, businesses, organizations and communities relate to neighbors. Chris Masters, executive director of the Access: Supports for Living Foundation, said, “…Because of the courageous and innovative work launched by them both, Access and our affiliate organizations are able to optimize the supports and services available to those of all abilities in our communities.”

BIG Y INCREASES PAY Over its 86-year history, Big Y has been proud of its culture of caring for employees and their families and will once again invest in store teams to show appreciation for their hard work, loyalty and unwavering customer service. This multimillion-dollar investment will increase starting-pay rates for all clerks, customer service, fresh food and center store specialists and assistant department managers as of June 26. As a result of these rate changes, almost 7,600 or close to three-fourths of the company’s retail workforce will receive a pay increase, which will assist them with the rising cost of living. These hourly store operations teams work in the Big Y Markets as well as Table & Vine and Big Y Express Gas and Convenience Stores. Once implemented, all retail Big Y employees will be paid above minimum wage in both Massachusetts and Connecticut. Members of upper management

are not included in this increase. Recent employee feedback indicates that Big Y’s store teams have a high-level of appreciation for the teamwork and cooperation they experience with their peers, and they appreciate being valued for their voice and input regarding company initiatives. Currently, 3,282 employees have more than 10 years of service and 7,409 have over five years. Big Y Foods Inc. is one of the largest independently owned supermarket chains in New England and has been recognized by “Forbes” magazine as a Best-in-State Employer in Massachusetts and Connecticut for the past three years, as well as Employer of Choice by the Employers Association of the Northeast. Founded in 1936 by brothers Paul and Gerald D’Amour, the store was named after an intersection in Chicopee, Massachusetts, where two roads converge to form a “Y.”

The Boys & Girls Club of Northern Westchester (BGCNW) recently hosted its 27th gala at which it honored philanthropic community leader Seema Boesky. There were more than 220 attendees at Crabtree’s Kittle House in Chappaqua, including Club staff and teen members. • Club CEO Alyzza Ozer welcomed the guests and highlighted many of the Club’s outstanding accomplishments, including: • where the event was held June marks the 13th year that 100% of the Club’s high school seniors are graduating on time and going to university; • BGCNW’s Marlins swim team has won the Boys & Girls Club of America’s National Championship for the past 21 years and for the first time in its 52-year history was recognized

by USA Swimming with a Bronze status. “BGCNW’s Keystone Club tied for first place for the Bedford 2030 Greenlight Leadership and Innovation Award. The winners were applauded for their advocacy skills, which is one of the Club’s key programming differentiators. Boesky, who has been a passionate supporter of the Club for 48 years, attributes this, in part, to the values her parents instilled in her about the importance of giving back. The event also featured club alumni Marc Lener, M.D., who is a clinical psychiatrist, clinical psychiatric researcher, educator and social entrepreneur, who credits much of his success to the Club. He was three years old, a transracially adopted child, originally born in South Korea, living with his parents

in Mount Kisco, when he attended the Club “Community isn’t just about giving to the needy or the underserved — each of us will struggle and succeed along the way; it’s about creating a space to allow humans to elevate other humans. In this time of tension and division, we need to focus on community and the ties that bind us,” Lener said. The evening concluded with a live auction, which included an opportunity to go horseback riding and have breakfast with Martha Stewart at her Westchester estate. It sold for $25,000. All the event proceeds go to helping the Club to continue to inspire and enable young people, especially those who need them most, to realize their full potential as productive, responsible and caring citizens.

NYPA AWARDS SCHOLARSHIPS The New York Power Authority (NYPA) in White Plains recently announced that 10 high school seniors residing in New York state and interested in pursuing energy-related undergraduate studies will receive a one-time $10,000 NYPA Future Energy Leaders Scholarship award as part of the company’s commitment to help increase diversity in the electric utility and related clean-energy industries. The targeted scholarship program, launched in 2021 and managed by NYPA’s Environmental Justice program, is part of the utility’s industry-leading Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) plan to prepare and support a workforce that reflects the diverse communities NYPA serves. “NYPA’s goal is to increase diversity in the electric power industry by creating opportunities for traditionally underrepresented students in New York state who are interested in pursuing a career in an energy-related field,” said Justin E. Driscoll, NYPA interim president and CEO. “Our Future Energy Leaders scholarship program is one of several initiatives to advance racial justice and promote equity in the utility sector by supporting the devel-

opment of a highly skilled workforce that offers upward mobility for all and will help New York in its transition to a clean energy future.” NYPA currently employs more than 2,000 engineers, energy technologists, IT specialists and other professionals. To be eligible for a scholarship, applicants have to be academically accomplished, economically challenged and under-represented high school seniors. “The students receiving Future Energy Leaders Scholarships are among the best and the brightest, and they plan to bring their talents to the rapidly changing energy industry” said Lisa Payne Wansley, NYPA’s vice president of environmental justice. NYPA is the largest state public power organization in the nation, operating 16 generating facilities and more than 1,400 circuit-miles of transmission lines. More than 80% of the electricity NYPA produces is clean renewable hydropower. NYPA uses no tax money or state credit. It finances its operations through the sale of bonds and revenues earned in large part through sales of electricity.

BCW PRESIDENT APPOINTED TO BLUE RIBBON PANEL Marsha Gordon, The Business Council of Westchester president and CEO has been appointed to the “New” New York blue-ribbon panel to examine the future of New York City and the region’s economy. Gov. Kathy Hochul and Mayor Eric Adams designated the 56-member panel to develop actionable strategies for the recovery and resilience of New York City’s commercial districts, challenges stemming from the Covid-19 pandemic and longstanding and systemic challenges facing the New York City region. “This panel represents a diverse cross-section of New Yorkers with a track record of thinking big to develop innovative policies to drive growth in all five boroughs and beyond,” said Gov. Hochul. The panel will examine issues such as how and where people work and the use of space in key commercial centers, with the goal of minimizing vacancy, catalyzing vibrancy and bolstering the tax base. The panel will recommend specific, immediate initiatives that will serve as the basis of a shared city-state agenda, as well as long-term, transformative ideas for the city and state to consider.

The Nicholas Center, which is headquartered on Long Island, expanded services to Westchester during the pandemic renovating and updating the space with new furnishings and equipment. A special ribbon-cutting celebration was held to open

to further the conversation on the benefits of inclusion in the workplace and in the community. It operates from the perspective that once perceptions, attitudes and behaviors change, real change in this sector will be realized.

REMIXED ICONIC ALBUM COVER ART EXHIBITION Cover Lover Remix (CLR) is a juried multi-artist exhibition of “remixed” album covers, which launched in 2011 in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn, as the vinyl revival was picking up steam with renewed interest in vinyl records. The CLR exhibition explores the transition of visual artists from consumers of album art to creators of reimagined album covers. All exhibiting pieces measure 24” x 24,” which maintains the square shape of an album cover, while doubling the cover size for increased visual impact. Participating artists will reinterpret iconic album covers while maintaining a conceptual thread to the original album artwork, which will be visible via QR code. Curator Dick Burroughs said, “Album art isn’t normally in art-specific environments such as a gallery, and the public’s interaction is with the familiar, yet it creates a vibrant energy.” In addition to the artists the jury selects for the exhibition, the exhibition will feature a select group of guest artists curated by Burroughs. Selected art-

ists are chosen for their style, energy and vibrancy to create exceptional expressions of the CLR curatorial theme. Burroughs is a Brooklyn-based art curator, writer, DJ and culturati. He started the Cover Lover Remix exhibition to pay homage to the power of album cover art and platform emerging artists. You can find him on Facebook and Instagram. Pelham Art Center is located at 155 Fifth Ave. in Pelham, New York. It is a nonproﬁt educational and cultural institution committed to providing public access to see, study and experience the arts. The Center was founded in 1970 and now serves more than 16,000 people each year. Submissions to the Pelham Art Center Cover Lover Remix remain open until June 27 at 11:59 p.m. The nonrefundable entry fee is $12 per submission; discount code is available for Pelham Artist Club members.
