BY BILL HELTZEL bheltzel@westfairinc.com If there was ever anyone who wanted The College of New Rochelle to succeed, says Keith Borge, it was he, yet the former controller was not seated among the dignitaries on stage when the 115-year-old Catholic college came to a close with its final graduation ceremony on Aug. 20. Borge was facing anoth-

er deadline: an Aug. 28 sentencing on federal charges of securities fraud, for inflating financial statement assets by $33.8 million, and failure to pay $20.4 million in payroll taxes. Yet, as the college is liquidating its assets and trying to sell the 15.5-acre New Rochelle campus, Borge has made it clear that he bears no blame for CNR’s closing. In his account of events, detailed in a sen-

tencing memorandum and letter to a federal judge, other administrators and the board of directors were responsible for the demise of the college. He asked for no jail time and no fine when he is sentenced. “Yes, Mr. Borge played a role in the demise of CNR, and he deeply regrets his actions,” his attorney, Lee David Auerbach states in » » COLLEGE

Warrior brewer MIKE CHILTERN IS ALL CHIPS IN WITH HIS WHITE PLAINS BREWERY AND EVENT SPACE BY BOB ROZYCKI bobr@westfairinc.com

M

ike Chiltern says if you want the absolute freshest beer served to you in White Plains come over to his place — Wolf & Warrior on East Post Road. And why does he say he has the freshest? His place has a brewery, which he and righthand man Mark Ruggiero watch over like doting parents, just mere feet below the beer taps. The bar and event space, which serves farm-to-table food, is about a half-mile down the road from where the self-made braumeister was born at White Plains Hospital. But the road he traveled to making fresh beer professionally had one big obstacle that he had to overcome — a $58,000 fraud perpetrated by a brewing company manufacturer. More on that shortly. Wolf & Warrior Brewing Co. is in space once occupied by Jimmy Dee Music Productions. To create what Chiltern envisioned took a lot of sweat equity. “Mark and I demoed this place ourselves over the course of eight weekends using crowbars, Sawzalls and hammers,” he said. To get the money he needed to get going, “I wrote a business plan for the SBA and I got a loan on the strength of my homebrewing career.” (He has a wall of ribbons and honors from homebrewing competitions next to the basement brewery.) That career began in the home he had in Queens in 2012, but its roots stretched back to his semester abroad where he wrote a paper for a course at Syracuse University on beer in African culture. But beermaking would take a back seat to a 20-year career in television production for The Learning Channel (“Trading Spaces”), documentary work and then, finally, video production for Morgan Stanley’s global television network based in Purchase. It was time to leave corporate America after discovering that a city of 58,000 residents that swells to 200,000 during the day didn’t have a brewery. So last November, Chiltern dove headlong into creating Wolf & Warrior, the names of which are derived from his two boys, Vuk and Branko. His wife, Jelena, is from Serbia, and they wanted to give the boys Serbian names. Vuk means wolf and Branko, which means defender, was adapted to warrior. On a recent hot afternoon, the sweet smell of boiling wort — what beer is known as before it’s fermented — was in the air of the establishment. Chiltern talked as he and Ruggiero cooled the wort and weighed Mackinac hops — “the most sought-after of New York hops” — to add to the brew. “My hands are on every beer we make,” Chiltern said. “It’s tough. It’s a 24/7 job. I handle payroll, schedule, the ordering of the grain, hops, paying utilities, fixing something that breaks, marketing, social media, Instagram all falls on my lap. Managing the food vendors. It’s

exhausting. And on top of that, the little ‘wolf and warrior’ are 4 and 6 years old and they want their dad.” He adds, “I honestly couldn’t do it without Mark. He’s got professional brewing experience and he’s got passion for beer that equals my own.” That passion extends to growing his own hops, which he has been doing for four years. Of course, he has to augment his garden’s yield with “hops from around the world and New York state.” He said, “95 percent of the grains we use — barley, wheat, oats — come from the Hudson Valley and upstate. No farms, no beer as they say.” And Chiltern is dedicated to his craft. “Today we’re making a brut IPA, as in the French word for dry,” he said. “Once it’s done fermenting and it’s ready to drink, there is zero residual sugar left in suspension, so it’s a very bone-dry, champagne-like IPA. It still has IPA aroma and hop flavor minus any caramel malt sweetness.” He cracks open a bag of mosaic hops and invites a visitor to breathe in the complex aroma. He goes on to say that he vacuum packs the hops because the “essential oils in hops are very volatile, and so they can easily be susceptible to oxidation. Oxygen is a true enemy of beers that are considered hoppy beers. So we want to minimize oxygen contact at all costs.” Chiltern has an unwavering zest for his craft. It kept him going when three-quarters of the way through the buildout he got a heart-sinking phone call. “We already did demolition and I get a call from the Bend, Oregon, police department,” he said. The original brewing equipment that

WCBJ

Chiltern ordered was going to come from Oregon. “The police called to say we need to let you know that the company you’re doing business with emptied out the factory, padlocked it and we firmly believe you’re the victim of fraud.” Chiltern adds, “And your deposit has gone up in smoke. Along with 17 other breweries in 10 other states.” Since the crime was considered interstate wire fraud, the police handed the case over to the FBI. “Horrible news, especially when you have two children and you just pledged your house and you put all your chips in and the most crucial thing you need to carry on the business — beer-making equipment — you now realize you don’t have it,” he said. “You’re out the money for the deposit.” That’s $58,000. “My wife said there’s no pulling out now,” he said. “We already invested $300,000 to general contractors, electricians and all that to create this space. Mark already left his job to join the team. We just have to push on, batten down the hatches and go for broke.” Like a warrior? “Like a warrior, exactly! Or a hungry wolf,” he said. Chiltern started liquidating anything he could find. “The last things I had left to me were remnants of a 401(k), the remnants of an IRA and a Roth (retirement account) and credit cards,” he said. His father pitched in with money, too. Chiltern was undaunted. He remembered Blichmann Engineering

from a homebrew convention several years back that made pro-grade equipment. He contacted them and they knew about the brewers who were defrauded. “Within two weeks of ordering from them it was here,” he said. “We loaded it all down the stairs … 500 to 600 pounds per piece. Everything came down the stairs by hand with moving blankets and ropes.” Brewing began, and on Jan. 24 Wolf & Warrior opened for business. “Yep, we opened with three beers on tap,” including an Argentinian blond ale named Patagonia. “And today that remains our best-selling beer,” he said. The other two beers were New England IPAs. As far as distribution, “we send kegs out of house, not the fat boys, the ‘slimmers,’ sixtels they’re called,” he said. “They go to bars and specialty bottle shops and restaurants that have a good craft beer program, like Coals pizza in Port Chester and Bronxville. Frankie & Johnnies Steakhouse in Rye takes Patagonia. Half Time (a beer store) takes beer fairly often. Beer Noggin in Bronxville. I just started bringing beer north of 287 to Croton Tapsmith (co-owned by TV personality Toni Senecal) and The Green Growler,” both in Croton-onHudson. “And more to come. “It’s kinda cool that I brought a business to the actual same street that I was born on 42 years ago. So it’s full circle. It’s like coming home after a long sojourn.” For more information, go to wolfandwarrior.com.


Rafael Viñoly-designed Ridgefield home relisted at discounted $9.75M BY PHIL HALL phall@westfairinc.com

A

Ridgefield residence created by the renowned architect Rafael Viñoly is back on the market at a discounted sales price. The 191 Ridgebury Road home is among the relatively few private residences designed by Viñoly, who is world famous for his commercial property designs, including Jazz at Lincoln Center and 432 Park Avenue in Manhattan and Jongno Tower in Seoul, South Korea. The 10,561-square-foot, three-bedroom and three-bathroom home on a 5-acre property with indoor and outdoor pools was created as the home for Alice Lawrence, widow of New York real estate executive Sylvan Lawrence, who used the home to display her extensive art collection. Built in 1990, the structure stood out from local residences for its bold use of concrete walls and steel fixtures — its futurist exterior made it look more like a commercial building than a private home.

It was first listed in December 2013 at $25 million, but within 18 months the price was down to $19.5 million.

Lawrence lived there until her death in 2008, and her heirs could not find a buyer for their requested $10 million listing price. They later donated the residence to Fairfield University — at the time, the property was priced at $5.4 million. However, the university never found a way to incorporate the property into its operations and had problems selling it: an initial listing of $3.2 million was cut in 2012 for $2.7 million to a limited liability company owned by Fraydun Manocherian, the owner of the New York Health & Racquet Club chain. Over the past seven years, attempts to sell the home have been unsuccessful. It was first listed in December 2013 at $25 million, but within 18 months the price was down to $19.5 million. It is now listed at $9.75 million, and the price includes an adjacent 11.23-acre featuring a 3,500-square-foot farmhouse with a legal apartment and separate entrance.

amaroneck-based Verco Properties, under affiliated company VRV Corp., has bought two White Plains apartment communities developed by David Mann and his Lighthouse Living company. The developments are The Reed at 115 N. Broadway and The Dylan at 42 Waller Ave. The purchase price for each was $11 million. The Reed is 3 stories and has 23 units. The Dylan is 4 stories and has 24 units and commercial space on the ground floor. Both used modular construction and were built in 2015. “We like owning boutique residential communities and those types of properties,” John Verni, principal and partner of Verco Properties, told the Business Journal. “We acquired those properties when they became available because we want to be more in Westchester, which is our home.” Verni said Mann did a “very good job” of developing the properties, emphasized that they’re comparatively new and expressed confidence that they will not require renovation. Verni said Verco sold some of its

Manhattan properties and decided to diversify more into Westchester. “I think that the rent regulations have become onerous to navigate in New York City,” he said. “We’ve done it for 75 years, but I think there are opportunities outside of New York City and there comes a time when the millennials are looking to move out of the city and into places like White Plains and Harrison and along the train lines and so we’re doing that.” Verco Properties had its founding when Giovanni Verni came to the U.S. from Bari, Italy, in 1919 and started Verni’s Market, a family grocery store, on the corner of York Avenue and 89th Street in the Yorkville section of Manhattan, one block from Gracie Mansion. He bought the building in the 1940s and his family lived in an apartment above the store. The family subsequently bought other buildings on the Upper East Side, renovated them and attracted middle-class New Yorkers as tenants. John Verni sees The Dylan and The Reed as having great appeal to millennials as well as empty nesters who are selling their houses and seeking to downsize.

management and maintenance services, showed a 900-squarefoot, one-bedroom unit at The Reed renting for $2,575 a month and a 1,500-square-foot, two-bedroom unit at $3,425. At The Dylan, a one-bedroom, 800-square-foot unit is listed at $1,450 a month and a two-bedroom, 1,200-square-foot unit is $2,950. Verni said some millennials who have been in Manhattan and Brooklyn are now ready to enter a new stage of life and are looking to settle in Westchester. “They are not ready to buy their first home, but want a walkable downtown with the amenities that they’ve become used to in Manhattan and Brooklyn. White Plains offers that and some of the towns and villages are trying to provide that as well,” he said. Verni said The Dylan and The Reed are in the category of developments that allow empty nesters to stay in their communities. “There also are the folks who are going through a transition in their lives, marital or otherwise, and are looking for that type of housing,” he said. “We also see a certain segment of new immigrants to the area coming in.” Verni noted that the company

renovated the former Mamaroneck train station, which now houses a restaurant on the main level. Verco Properties has its office on the second floor of the building. It is making steady progress on converting the Harrison movie theater property into 36 units of transit-oriented housing while retaining street-level retail space. “We’ve done the demolition and we’re getting ready to pour the foundations and start going up on the redevelopment. Probably the end of next year is when we’ll be occupying the units there,” Verni said. The project, known as the Harrison Playhouse Lofts, is being built with green technologies, roof terraces, a community patio and gardens, an on-site gym and yoga area and a screening room to pay homage to the movie theater which operated from the late 1920s into the 1990s. “We’re also, as part of our repositioning our portfolio, acquiring a property in Connecticut. We haven’t closed on it yet, but we’re buying a 55-unit adapted mill, an old mill that’s been converted to 55 units of housing on a lake with a waterfall that runs through it, so it’s a very cool property. It’s in Glastonbury,” Verni told the Business Journal.

T

he New Rochelle Industrial Development Agency has granted preliminary approval for $54 million in tax exemptions for five proposed apartment buildings. The proposed projects would add nearly 1 million square feet of residential and retail space, provide 839 downtown apartments and cost about $369 million to build. All but one of the structures would be grouped around Huguenot Street and Centre Avenue. Allstate Ventures LLC wants to build three of them: two 14-story towers on Centre Avenue and Huguenot Street and a 7-story building at Westchester Place. The projects would cost about $163 million. The Orange County developer would demolish three small buildings, create 406 dwellings and 11,150-square-feet of retail space and provide 343 garage parking spaces, according to applications submitted last month to the New Rochelle Industrial Development Agency. The Westchester Place project was presented as artist quarters that would be leased at below-market-rate rents. The street would be converted to a passageway connecting the three buildings, emphasizing pedestrian and public uses over vehicle traffic. Allstate Ventures expects to hire from 150 to 350 construction workers per building, as work is phased in over two years. Twenty-four full-time and five part-time jobs would be created when the buildings open from 2021 to 2023. Allstate Ventures is asking the IDA for $13.9 million in sales tax exemptions, $1.3 million in mortgage recording tax exemptions and $23.6 million in property tax abatement, for a total tax benefit of $38.8 million. Huguenot Partners LLC presented plans to the IDA for North Tower, a $100 million to $135 million, 28-story structure with 249 apartments and 3,000 square feet of commercial space, at

327 Huguenot St. Huguenot Partners is affiliated with DHA Capital LLC of Manhattan, which got final IDA approval in June for a similar 28-story South Tower, across the street. The towers would be connected by a pedestrian bridge over Centre Avenue. The North Tower would be built on a city parking lot, and a 241-vehicle garage would include 26 municipal spaces. The developer expects to hire 300 construction workers and create 15 full-time and 2 part-time jobs when the project is finished around 2024. The developer is asking for a $3.6 million sales tax exemption on building materials, fixtures and equipment and a mortgage tax exemption of $2.1 million. It also wants property tax abatement for 20 years, but did not submit a schedule of payments. The South Tower property tax abatement, approved in June, is for $9.8 million. Huguenot Partners hopes to start construction on the North Tower in two years. Wilder Balter Partners and L&M Development Partners presented plans for a $70.6 million, 7-story, 184-unit apartment building at 25 Maple Ave. The site is a 115-vehicle parking lot. A proposed 321-vehicle parking garage would include 200 spaces for the city. The developers expect to hire 368 construction workers and create one part-time and six fulltime jobs. The developers are asking for $2.3 million in sales tax exemptions, a $500,200 mortgage tax exemption, and property tax abatement of $12.9 million over 20 years, for a total tax benefit of $15.7 million. Construction could begin this fall and be completed in two years. The IDA board granted preliminary approval to all five projects on July 31. Public hearings will be held Sept. 25, and then the board could consider final proposed tax exemptions.

Norwalk startup puts the Moscow Mule in an Americanized can BY PHIL HALL phall@westfairinc.com

T

he cocktail known as the Moscow Mule first came on the scene in 1941 and, despite its Russian name, the mix of vodka, ginger beer and lime served in a copper mug was created in a Los Angeles bar. Legend has it that Academy Award-winning actor Broderick Crawford was the first person to taste it and it caught on with unusual speed — some liquor industry historians credit it with popularizing vodka among Americans. But after the 1940s it seemed to fall out of favor as other cocktails began to emerge. Fast-forward to 2015 and UConn alumnus Dean Mahoney found himself with friends in a Santa Monica, California, bar called the Bungalow after a day’s work in technology sales. “We noticed all of these copper mugs were put out at the bar,” he said. “We realized Moscow Mule, the drink in that copper mug, was starting to re-emerge.” Mahoney also noticed that the local bars were wildly inconsistent in their Moscow Mule mixology. “Sometimes they were good, sometimes they weren’t,” he said. “Either they were spicy

or sugary. We wanted to make it for ourselves.” Despite having no formal training in mixology, Mahoney turned the kitchen of his studio apartment into a laboratory for creating a consistent Moscow Mule formula that could be mass-produced. “I was throwing yeast in 2-liter bottles and leaving it overnight, with huge explosions,” he admitted, adding that consultations with “some experts in the space” helped avoid combustible kitchen chaos and zero in on a winning formula. “Seventy iterations and seven months later, we had the product,” he said, referring to the ready-to-serve cocktail branded ’Merican Mule. Mahoney and his partners in this venture, Steve Pawlik and Pete Weil, began self-financing and self-distributing ’Merican Mule in California before the Miller Coors network agreed to pick up the product for distribution. Now the CEO of a new company, Mahoney moved back to Connecticut in 2018 and set up an East Coast headquarters for ’Merican Mule in Norwalk, with co-founders Pawlik and Weil remaining in California to handle West Coast operations. ’Merican Mule is manu-

factured in Missouri — ironically, the state best known for its mule population — and uses a corn-based vodka that is distilled four times and can be marketed as gluten-free. The product is sold in approximately 600 retail stores across California, Connecticut, Massachusetts and in Las Vegas, with plans to enter the New York market on Long Island and upstate locations in September. While ’Merican Mule

is sold in an 8-ounce can, Mahoney does not market his product as a “canned cocktail,” arguing that the phrase is too broad. “You can almost consider a ready-to-drink beverage a canned cocktail,” he said. Due to the content of the product, ’Merican Mule has relied heavily on experiential marketing rather than online promotions to attract buyers. “We’ve hired a network of beverage samplers and

put them in retail stores,” Mahoney said. “We encourage people to try a small sample, and a lot of times people will buy it. Alcohol can’t be sold online, but getting people on the ground supporting our retailers is important because it shows we’re seeking to create awareness about the product. We also participate in food and brew events, which is a good way to let a lot of people try the product.” Last month, ’Merican

Mule expanded its product line with two flavored additions that varied from the traditional recipe: The Tropical Style Mule made of rum, ginger and pineapple and the Mexican Style Mule consisting of tequila, ginger and lime. At the end of September, Mahoney will debut the Southern Mule, made with whiskey bourbon, ginger, orange and cherry. “We’ve developed north of six to eight additional mules,” he said. “Whether or when we’ll release them is a little bit TBD, but there should be more coming out next year.” Mahoney has fielded inquiries from other countries to import ’Merican Mule, although he is putting off overseas sales until the national sales base is expanded. Due to its contents, the product is slapped with state liquor taxes, which vary between states, and Mahoney admitted this creates a slightly higher price point compared to other popular alcoholic beverages. “We’re passionate about creating something that’s disruptive,” he said. “We felt we can make a great product that people would be willing to pay for, create a great experience and to be something a little bit different than your standard beer or wine.”

Ray Dalio: 40% chance of recession before 2020 election BY PHIL HALL phall@westfairinc.com

R

ay Dalio, the founder of Westportbased hedge fund Bridgewater Associates, has joined the chorus of voices warning that the U.S. economy risks falling into a recession before the end of next year. “Recessions are always inevitable,” Dalio said in an interview with CNBC. “The only question is: ‘When?’

AUGUST 26, 2019

I think that in the next two years, let’s say prior to the next election, there’s probably a 40% chance of a recession. I think you are seeing this around the world.” Recession fears were spurred when the yield on the 10-year Treasury note temporarily fell below the 2-year rate. Dalio supported the view held by many economists that this situation could be viewed as a precursor to a recession. “You will see greater

interest rate cuts as you start to see the world economy starting to slow down,” he said. “I think you are

seeing that being led now by the bonds. Long-term interest rates are falling faster than short-term interest rates, which is inverting the yield curve. And when that happens, it means that cash is more attractive than bonds — and as that happens, you see the movement toward cash and the slowing up of lending.” Dalio predicted the next election will inject a higher degree of political philosophy into shaping the nation’s economic direction.

“I think the elections we are going to have in the United States will have an important bearing,” he said. “It is a contrast — or conflict — between capitalists and socialists. We are going to see more of that.” Dalio also cautioned that the ongoing trade war between the U.S. and China could take a sharper turn if China were to use its $1.11 trillion in Treasury holdings as a power play. “We have a debtor-creditor relationship,

not just a trade relationship, and that can be a dangerous thing,” said Dalio, who said he “wouldn’t rule it out” for China to go in that direction. “What we worry about — and I think it’s a reality — is that in this new world of adversely affecting each other economically and hurting each other’s businesses, each tries to think: ‘Now, how can I do the other the maximum harm?’” he said. “And the Chinese are clever at doing that.”

He has pled guilty for the many who failed in their responsibilities and were unable to provide Mr. Borge with the financial resources he needed to satisfy CNR’s tax obligations.” Borge expresses regrets for his actions but claims that a sharp drop in tuition payments from declining enrollments was the primary cause of the college closing.

The largest dip was at Developmental Services, which saw overtime decrease 10.3%, or $4.5 million. Overall, an additional 979 state employees were paid overtime, with 18,333 workers each paid an average $12,780, in fiscal 2019. The $234.3 million is the third-highest overtime payout in state history. Spending peaked at $256.1 million in 2015, then fell to $219 million in 2016 and $204.4 million in 2017. The new spike, according to the Connecticut Business & Industry Association, epitomizes what’s wrong with the state of Connecticut’s fiscal health — and perpetuates the image that this is not necessarily a place where you want to conduct business. “Businesses that want to come to Connecticut, or are already here and thinking of expanding, see that we’re

the Bedford-Stuyvesant section of Brooklyn. Borge, 63, of Valley Cottage held several finance positions during his 37-year tenure. He retired in 2016. College President Judith Huntington resigned a few months later. A forensic accountant and law firm hired by the college discovered $31.2 million in unpaid bills. Their findings were turned over to the U.S. Attorney’s Office. In March, Borge pleaded guilty to criminal charges of securities fraud and failure to pay payroll taxes. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission accused him in a civil suit of using the college’s endowment to pay operational expenses without approval by the board of trustees, concealing tax obligations from college officials, and misrepresenting assets and liabilities on financial statements that deceived investors in bonds issued by the college.

one of the most underfunded states in the country,” CBIA Counsel Louise DiCocco said. “Overtime just adds to our long-term liabilities. It’s a huge, huge problem.” Overtime is included as a factor in calculating state employee pensions, one of Connecticut’s most pressing long-term liabilities. While the $234.3 million is less than the $240 million the CBIA warned about in January, DiCocco noted that the difference is barely significant in the big picture. In March, the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) released its annual study on state pension systems throughout the country. It reported that Connecticut’s unfunded pension liability amounts to $32,805 per person in the state and 45.13 percent of Connecticut’s gross state product. Furthermore, ALEC concluded that the state has only 20.28% of the funds necessary to meet its future obligations to state employees and teachers. In 2017, then-Gov. Dannel Malloy and the State Employee Retirement Board System (SERS) agreed

Last month he consented to being assessed a civil penalty in the SEC case. His sentencing memo and letter to U.S. District Judge Vincent Briccetti claim that college officials, including Huntington and the board of trustees, were aware of the unpaid payroll taxes and unpaid bills. His defense skirts the specific actions on which the criminal and civil charges are based. The real issue, according to Borge, is that CNR did not enroll enough tuition-paying students to support operations. “It was simply the college’s inability to produce enough cash,” the sentencing memo states, “that caused Mr. Borge to commit the charged offense.” Borge also attributes CNR’s financial woes to fundraising shortfalls, building a wellness center that increased debt by $28 million, expensive leases for

was overwhelming.” He knew the seriousness of not paying taxes, “but the college didn’t have the cash.” He should have done things differently, “but I cannot change the past.” He should have called the IRS, “but the IRS also could have contacted the college at any time.” CNR closed its doors because enrollment dropped significantly and it was no longer an economically viable educational institution, the sentencing memo states. “It had suffered from a fatal case of insufficient cash flow, as well as an administration who turned a blind eye to its economic demise and a board that was uninvolved.” Nonbinding federal sentencing guidelines call for a prison sentence of eight to ten years and a fine of $30,000 to $300,000, according to a criminal plea agreement he signed in March. A pre-sentence investigation report recom-

campuses in New York City, and programs and degrees that did not attract students. “Where was the sense of urgency on behalf of the board and administration?” his letter asks. “For a group of intelligent people, it’s hard to believe they couldn’t realize the seriousness of the situation.” The sentencing memo depicts Borge as a heroic figure who made a poor decision, “a man whose whole adult working life was spent towards the betterment of The College of New Rochelle, its students and faculty.” Borge claims that his only motive was to help the college survive, “so that students could graduate and employees could be paid while the administration worked on things getting better.” His letter is a litany of “yes” … but with defenses. Yes, he is sorry for not paying the taxes, “but the stress I was experiencing trying to keep the college open

to lower the assumed rate of return from 8% to 6.9%, increasing the unfunded ratio. The annual cost of SERS is expected to grow from $1.8 billion this year to $2.2 billion by 2022. The Teachers Retirement System (TRS) maintains an 8% rate of return. Of the lat-

ter, the Center for Retirement Studies at Boston College warned that failure to meet that rate could drive the cost of those pensions to $6 billion per year by 2032. DiCocco noted that Connecticut’s pension fund liabilities hit $34.2 billion in 2018, against assets of just $13

billion — a funding ratio of just 38%, one of the worst of any state. In June 2011, the pension fund had $10.1 billion in assets and $21.1 billion in liabilities; by June 2018 the fund’s liabilities had grown by $13.7 billion while assets grew just $2.9 billion, leav-

mended imprisonment of four years. The U.S. Attorney’s Office has not yet submitted its analysis and recommendations. In asking the court for leniency, Borge and his lawyer argue that he did not personally profit from the crimes and he has no history of antisocial behavior or prior crimes, “not even a traffic ticket.” He is a religious man, an outstanding father and husband, the principal family caregiver, the sentencing memo states. He has fully cooperated with investigators and he has taken full responsibility for his actions. “Let me contribute to my community rather than be incarcerated,” Borge says in his letter to the judge. “I know I had to plead guilty to these charges because of my responsibility,” he states, “but please know I was trying to keep the college going, to keep its doors open.”

ing a shortfall of $21.2 billion. Connecticut was meeting just 48% of its obligations in June 2011, and that ratio has continued to decline ever since. DiCocco applauded the July announcement of a new agreement between the state and the State Employees Bargaining Agent Coalition, which according to Gov. Ned Lamont will result in a budgetary savings in the general fund for each fiscal year through 2032 of between $115 million and $121 million. It will also create a savings in the special transportation fund of $15.7 million in FY2020 and $19.7 million in FY2021. Nevertheless, she said, something must be done about the overtime conundrum — namely, reducing the size of government, making it more efficient and possibly privatizing some state services, all of which Lamont and some state legislators have publicly considered. “The calculation of overtime is the big stickler,” DiCocco said. “A lot of legislators probably won’t speak out about that for various reasons — some obvious, some not so obvious.”


In Court | By Bill Heltzel Co-owner wants court to shut down Peter J. Riolo Real Estate

A

co-owner of Peter J. Riolo Real Estate in Hasting-onHudson wants a court to shut down the corporation, claiming that his brother has mismanaged the family business. Arthur G. Riolo petitioned Westchester Supreme Court on Aug. 5 for an order dissolving the company and appointing a receiver. Since 1985, Peter J. Riolo Jr. has operated the business “without regard to corporate formality and in his own best interest,” the petition states, “ignoring any input from the other shareholders or needs of the corporation.” Peter Riolo did not respond to an email requesting his side of the story. The company was founded in 1973 by Peter Riolo Sr. It brokers and manages real estate, focusing on the river towns. Peter Jr. assumed majority control in 1985, when their father retired. He has 57 per-

cent of the shares and is the president; Arthur has 41 percent and is the secretary; and two other family members have 1 percent each. Arthur claims that Peter kept revenues from real estate management separate from the corporate operating account and used the funds at his sole discretion. He says he has received the same salary for 40 years, while Peter has given himself annual increases. When Peter became ill in 2016 and was unable to perform his duties for several months at a time over the next three years, Arthur says he took on his brother’s responsibilities. But he claims he was not compensated for the extra work, while Peter received full salary and a bonus. For several years, Arthur says, he pressed his brother to pay better sales commissions, to remain competitive with other brokers. Peter changed

the commissions in 2015, but allegedly applied the new rates to everyone but Arthur, “the highest producing agent … to remind petitioner that he was in control and would do as he pleased.” Arthur claims his brother abused, manipulated and intimidated employees, “causing key and productive agents to leave the company.” After demanding that the other shareholders surrender their car leases, as unnecessary corporate expense, Peter allegedly had the corporation lease a BMW for his personal use in 2015. When he confronted his brother about creating a succession plan, Peter allegedly responded that it was his intention to close the business when he retired. Justice Gretchen Walsh had ordered all interested parties to show cause on Sept. 11 as to why Peter J. Riolo Inc. should not be dissolved.

Contractor gets pennies on the dollar from African nation in mansion row

A

judge has awarded a construction company $75,000 — about a nickel on the dollar for the $1.4 million it demanded — on a $3.9 million renovation of a New Rochelle mansion for the ambassador of Chad. U.S. District Judge Vincent L. Briccetti, who presided over a five-day bench trial in June, also awarded Hilt Construction & Management Corp. more than $25,000 in interest on Aug. 6, for a total judgment of $100,336. Briccetti dismissed a $1 million breach of contract demand by the Permanent Mission of Chad to the United Nations. The dispute concerns the 39-room, 13,400-square-foot Davenport House, a Gothic Revival mansion built in 1859 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The Republic of Chad bought

the house in 2014 for then-ambassador Cherif Mahamat Zene, for $1.3 million. Hilt, of Monmouth Junction, New Jersey, specializes in renovating historical properties. Chad agreed to pay more than $2.8 million to renovate 19 bathrooms; install new windows, wiring, light fixtures, hardwood floors and porcelain floors; build a heated swimming pool, deck and circular driveway; and landscape the 1.14-acre property. Hilt claimed it encountered unforeseen complications and obstacles, such as asbestos and mold, requirements by the city of New Rochelle to fix drainage and roof issues, and demands by Zene for extra features, including a 20th bathroom. Hilt said the work totaled nearly $3.9 million,

including more than $1 million for additional work. It accused Chad of breach of contract, in a lawsuit filed in August 2016, and demanded $1.4 million for the extra work and a portion of the original contract that remained unpaid. Chad responded that the contract required the work to be completed in 180 days, by July 2015, when its lease in Manhattan expired. Hilt missed the deadline, the mansion was uninhabitable and 40 percent of the work was yet to be done. By then, Chad claimed, Hilt was demanding about $792,000 for extra work. Chad said Hilt abandoned the project and it had to hire another contractor to finish the work. The mission also claimed breach of contract and demanded $1 million.

Elder Law and Estate Planning News from Enea, Scanlan & Sirignano, LLP

Dear Grandparents: Have You Considered Paying my College Tuition? By Anthony J. Enea. Esq.

We have all heard and even witnessed children/grandchildren graduating from college with student loans the size of a home mortgage. The impact said debt can have on the life of a recent college graduate can be significantly detrimental to their future financial well-being. While many grandparents have the means to help with said tuition payments, many are unaware that they can do so without any impact on their lifetime estate and gift tax exclusion (For 2019 $11.4 Million per person, federally). Many grandparents are also unaware that in addition to the $15,000 per person per calendar annual exclusion gift that they can make, that if they make a gift subject to gift taxes in excess of said $15,000 per person per calendar they will only be reducing their $11.4 Million estate and gift tax exemption by the amount of the gift in excess of the $15,000 and that a spouse can join in on the gift ($22.8 Million exemption for a couple). Additionally, if the payment of tuition is made directly from the grandparents to the educational institution, then under Section 2503 (e)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC), said payment is considered a “Qualified transfer” and is not treated as a gift for gift tax purposes. Thus, it can be in an unlimited amount as long as it is paid directly to the educational institution for the education or training of such person. This can make the gift even more appealing, especially for grandparents with a taxable estate. There is no restriction on the educational level (Grammar, High School, College, Post Graduate) of the person, however, to be considered a “Qualified transfer” it must be for “tuition.” Room and Board, books and fees do not qualify for the exclusion. Thus, a grandparent can pay for the tuition of a grandchild and if they wish still make the $15,000 per person per annual exclusion gift to the same person without any reduction of their lifetime gift and estate tax exemption. It is an excellent way of leveraging one’s life time exemption while being able to directly benefit a loved one. As an added advantage because the tuition is being paid directly to the educational institution it also eliminates potential problems with the funding and management of a trust for the education of a loved one as well as the uncertainties of outright gifts to the child or to an UTMA/UGMA account for a child, who depending on their state of residence at either age 18 or 21 would have full access to the funds. With a “Qualified transfer” of the tuition expense directly to the educational institution there is little or no chance that the monies will be squandered or mismanaged. Definitely worth consideration. *Anthony J. Enea, Esq. is a member of the firm of Enea, Scanlan & Sirignano, LLP of White Plains, New York.

AS A SMALL BUSINESS, I CAN’T AFFORD TO WASTE MONEY ON SOCIAL MEDIA. WHAT WE’RE SPENDING SEEMS WILDLY DISPROPORTIONATE TO WHAT WE’RE GETTING. HOW CAN I MANAGE SOCIAL MEDIA AND THE VENDORS I WORK WITH? THOUGHTS OF THE DAY: Figure out the metrics you want to measure that will indicate if things are going well or not. Think about who might be your ideal audience and then test to see if you can attract their attention and convert them to action. If you’re just starting out, you’re going to do trials with different vendors and under different conditions to gain some experiential data. Create a plan of attack, and follow it, then revise it to improve results. Someone in your company is going to have to track and report on results. When building metrics, think about the following: • How many people are becoming aware of your company? • What’s opportunities are added to the pipeline? • How many prospects are engaged to discuss ways to work together? • How many deals get done? • How much revenue and profit contribution? Add up all costs incurred to work on social media. Include staff time, vendor costs, any software and advertising, any training costs. Add in a factor for overhead contribution. Compare stats resulting from social media efforts to what you spent. Divide spending on social media by each individual stat for awareness, pipeline additions, prospect engagement and number and value of deals getting done. Design a profile of your ideal customer — which may mean you need multiple profiles for multiple buying scenarios and products or services. It will help everyone involved to think about real people who are or could do business with your company. Each profile should be specific enough that you’re confident you and everyone else working on social media knows exactly who you’re trying to target. Include demographics such as age, sex, geography, socio-economic and education background, likes and dislikes, places they go for information, things that get their attention, problems they’re trying to solve, goals they’re trying to achieve, ways they talk about their experiences, how they go

about buying. Use existing great customers as your models. If you use an outside firm to build your customer profiles, make sure they work quickly and efficiently. You may find it’s faster and cheaper to have your own staff build profiles, since they already know a lot about your customers. Whoever works on the project, ask them to create a one-page description of each buyer profile. Once you have a profile, it’s time to get the attention of others who match that profile. Run tests and compare results to determine what works best with various social media outlets. Compare advertising with gaining visibility through posts. Think about how various social media channels work — some are for quick views, others are places to learn and make deeper contacts. Take a look at what your competitors may be doing. Gather ideas on what to promote, who to promote it to and what to stay away from. If you’re planning to spend money on advertising, look for venues that most closely align with your target client to maximize your spend. Write out the exact steps you plan to follow to grow your company’s social media presence, then stick to it. Decide how much you can afford to spend. Identify free and for-cost activities you want to try. Set a goal for the payoff you hope to achieve. Use your metrics to report on successes and failures. Repeat what works. Change what doesn’t.

Lawsuit: Founder’s stroke was opportunity to loot Yonkers iron works business Avenue in Yonkers. In 2016, he incorporated Precision Steel USA. Ourem Iron Works claims that Vivanco operated his businesses as competitors, from a location in Mount Vernon. Vivanco allegedly mismanaged Ourem, wasted assets and breached his fiduciary duty by, for instance, failing to remit payroll taxes that resulted in a $471,654 federal tax lien.

Ourem is asking the court to compel Vivanco to account for all assets diverted from Ourem and for all profits that the Precision Steel companies generated from the diversions. Attempts to contact Vivanco of Fishkill for his side of the story failed. Last year, Vivanco sued Ourem in Westchester Supreme Court, stating that

Ourem was about to sell its Yonkers property for $5.5 million. He wanted 15 percent. Ourem responded that Vivanco had no direct interest in the property and he had committed wrongdoing as an officer and shareholder. The case is pending. The property sold in July for $1.9 million. Ourem is represented by Matthew J. Keating of Elmsford.

arco Vivanco was supposed to manage Ourem Iron Works while the boss was convalescing from a stroke, but instead, according to a lawsuit, he looted the company and diverted customers to his own businesses. “Vivanco by his treachery crippled Ourem and cold-bloodedly enriched himself,” according to the lawsuit. Ourem Iron Works sued Vivanco and his two companies on Aug. 13 in Westchester Supreme Court for $1 million. Artur Viera Sr. founded Ourem in 1994, and for 19 years he managed the day-to-day operations of fabricating architectural and ornamental steel products, such as railings, fences and porches. In December 2013, according to the complaint, Viera, then 60, suffered a stroke that caused paralysis, impaired his speech and left him homebound. He decided to sell Ourem. But Vivanco, a key employee, asked to run the business while Viera recovered, in exchange for a minority interest. Vivanco assumed control in early 2014. He issued stock to himself, as secretary-treasurer, according to the complaint, representing 15 percent interest in the corporation. In 2015, Vivanco formed Precision Steel of NY, using Ourem’s address on Nepperhan

Hers Latin Rhythm Dance Studio keeps Rosa Flores on her toes BY PHIL HALL phall@westfairinc.com

R

osa Flores is living the best of both worlds. “I love dance and I love business,” said Flores, the owner of Latin Rhythm Dance Studio in Stratford. The business was founded in 1996 and Flores joined as a manager in 2006. In 2014, she acquired the business and has run it while also maintaining a full-time job as an administrative assistant with Trefz Corp., the Bridgeport-based property management firm. “I’ve been there for 24 years as an administrative assistant and I’ve learned a lot about business through the late Ernest Trefz,” Flores said.

For those possessing the proverbial two left feet, the notion of walking into a dance studio and absorbing the vibrant mix of athleticism and poetic gyrations that define Latin dance can be daunting. But Flores insisted that anyone can pick up the beat. “We welcome everyone,” she said. “You can expect to learn the very basics and go from there. It’s a great feeling to someone who walks in and knows very little about salsa and bachata and then, a month later, see them dancing and having a good time.” For the uninitiated, Flores explained that salsa is a faster-paced dance performed to a “mambo-Cuban type of sound,” while bachata is danced to “more of a

slower-paced type of sound.” Flores breaks her class structure into basic beginner, beginner, intermediate and advance levels and promised extra consideration with those who are new to this activity. “Yes, it takes work and patience,” she said. “But the patience also has to come from the student because it is all about their mindset. You need to have the positive mindset that you want to learn. And we understand that everyone learns differently and the timeframe is different for everybody. We don’t think it’s fair to put someone who is just starting with someone who has been here for a little bit. We want everyone to feel welcome and not feel intimidated.”

Dance—

And even if one is not on the dance floor, it is difficult not to be charmed by the energy the students and instructors display when the music starts and the dance movement begins. “It’s artistic. It’s so passionate and, from where it used to be years ago, there is such a diversity in it today because people come from all backgrounds,” Flores said. “People come together and meet so many others with different careers and backgrounds.” The studio has about 80 students, with classes for adults and children, along with six instructors. “We range anywhere close to 20 students in each class, and on slow days we could have eight students,” Flores said. Some of Flores’ students used their lessons to sharpen their competitive skills for participation in Latin dance showcases called congresses. Flores has traveled with some of these students around New England and to Miami for the events, and the studio holds its own showcase in the fall as part of the Hispanic Heritage Month celebrations. But for those who are not looking for trophies, the studio hosts a dance social one Friday each month. “It’s a nice, mature crowd,” Flores said. “There is no alcohol here, just water. It’s a few hours of dancing and everyone has a great time. Many people come in here saying this is an outlet for them — it’s a break from everything.” Flores works to keep costs low for her students, charging $20 for a drop-in visit and offering packages of four classes for $60 and eight for $80 — the only special requirement of students are shoes with suede soles, which adapt better to the wood floor than rubber soles or sneakers. Flores also noted the studio’s ability to retain students over the long haul. “I’ve had some students here for eight to 10 years,” she said. “We’ve had students that have been with us since they were little kids, and now they are teenagers. Three of my instructors were students here when they were kids. One of them was my daughter — she started learning here when she was 8 years old and now she is 26.” Flores also works to promote her studio through personal appearances in the area. During the summer, she has hosted free lessons at Captain’s Cove in Bridgeport every other Monday and she has also appeared at Latin dance events in New Haven. And while she deeply enjoys her work, her greatest satisfaction comes from students who share their appreciation of being able to put dance in their lives. “When I get a phone call from someone who said, ‘I saw you at such-and-such place and I just had to come into your studio because I want to learn,’ or, ‘I was in your class and because of your studio I am more confident,’ that is the best feeling,” she said with a warm smile. Latin Rhythm Dance Studio is at 1418 Barnum Ave. For more, go to latinrhythmstudio.com.

Bridgeport’s Harbor Yard Amphitheater names concessions vendor BY KEVIN ZIMMERMAN kzimmerman@westfairinc.com

lthough construction on Bridgeport’s Harbor Yard Amphitheater has been proceeding slowly, its operators maintain that progress can be seen by their naming of a food and beverages service provider. Philadelphia’s Aramark, which handles concessions and facilities management at more than 150 sports and entertainment venues, will be responsible for general concessions, clubs, suites and onsite catering as well as special events at the $15 million, 5,500-seat amphitheater. “Aramark is the perfect fit,” Harbor Yard Amphitheater developer Howard Saffan said. “Aramark creates unique food experiences that exceed expectations. That is exactly what we

strive for at HYA; a premier entertainment experience memorable for all.” Having broken ground in July 2018 on the site that was previously the home stadium of the Bridgeport Bluefish minor league baseball team, the amphitheater — at 500 Main St. on the Long Island Sound — was originally scheduled to open this past spring, then this summer. The venue, operated in association

with Live Nation Entertainment and the City of Bridgeport, is now looking to open sometime in 2020. Remaining to be seen is how the new facility will impact the 10,000-seat Webster Bank Arena next door at 600 Main St. Saffan said that he hoped to “work collaboratively with the arena to create an entertainment district” in Bridgeport.

ach social network is placing emphasis on video. It’s no wonder they’re all giving priority to videos. Video content is one of the most engaging forms of content and grabs people’s attention. Social networks like grabbing people’s attention and keeping them on their platforms. Social networks like Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Twitter, Pinterest and others have recently made video a deeper part of their strategies. Let’s remember it’s essential to focus on the social network that started it all, which is YouTube. YouTube was the pioneer in the video space and opened the gates to the competition that now ensues. Growing on YouTube makes it easier for you to grow on any social network. Here are three strategies you can use to grow your YouTube channel:

INCREASE YOUR WATCH TIME AND CLICK-THROUGH RATE

These are the two metrics that matter the most on YouTube. The clickthrough rate is a measure of the number of people who click on your video upon seeing it in the suggested tab. Your title and thumbnail are the two factors that will determine your click-through rate. Invest more time in coming up with great titles and thumbnails, and more people will click on your videos when they see your videos on YouTube. Your watch time is the other important metric. If someone watches your 10-minute video from start to finish, that’s an extra 10

minutes that YouTube has the attention of your viewer. YouTube gets to show suggested videos, run ads if your account is set up to run ads, and ultimately keep people on their platform. Creating a great video and sharing valuable insights is the backbone for increased watch time, but you also need to edit your videos to increase watch time. By editing your videos and adding b-roll and other pattern interrupts, you can increase the amount of time someone watches your video. If you’ve ever watched a video of someone talking and then a picture pops up, that’s an example of a pattern interrupt.

PUBLISH VIDEO TEASERS ON THE OTHER SOCIAL NETWORKS

Earlier I mentioned how it seems like every social network is embracing video and rewarding the people who create videos. However, those rewards only come into play if you natively upload videos on their platforms. If you copy and paste your YouTube link into a Facebook post, Facebook isn’t going to reward you for it. They’ll only reward you if you upload the entire video into Facebook and then post about it. The same rule of thumb applies for the rest of the social networks. Instead of taking the entire video file and uploading it natively to each social network, there’s a better approach for promoting your YouTube channel. You can take a clip from your upcoming video and post it on the other social networks. At the end of the clip tell the viewers that you’ll post the entire video on your YouTube

channel. Encourage people to subscribe and hit the notifications bell so they get notified when you come out with that video.

GET INTO COLLABORATIONS

With marketing and anything else in life, there’s only so much you can do on your own. Collaborating with other YouTubers will allow you to get in front of their audiences and ultimately grow your channel. That’s because the people you collaborate with will promote the video to their audiences. For a YouTube collaboration video, it’s ideal if both of you are in the same room. If that’s not possible, there’s still a way around it, but it’s a different set-up from a podcast interview. You can introduce someone to your audience and let them do the rest of the video on your channel and then you come in with closing remarks. Then, that person will allow you to speak to their audience in the same manner. YouTube was the foundational social network that inspired other platforms to utilize video content and reward people for creating that type of content. Even though it’s the older social network on the block, YouTube is still a heavily visited platform. Utilize it properly to help you get more customers for your business.

In Brief | Fairfield County MGM Resorts Springfield falls short in first-year gambling revenue MGM Resorts International, still shut out of Connecticut’s gaming industry for the time being, is also now dealing with a significant shortfall at its MGM Springfield casino resort in Massachusetts, which observes its first anniversary in business on Aug. 24. During its first year of operations, the casino resort generated $252.8 million in gambling revenue for the period ending July 31, according to figures released by the Massachusetts Gaming Commission. That is below the projected $412 million that the company projected for its first year in Springfield. MGM Springfield President and Chief Operating Officer Mike Mathis acknowledged that the company was not wholly successful in attracting Connecticut gamblers

away from Foxwoods and Mohegan Sun. “This market has some really strong competitors that have been in the market for 20-plus years,” Mathis said during a press conference. “I think we may have underestimated that level of loyalty and what it would take for those customers to give us a shot.” Mathis added that initial gambling revenue projections were made several years earlier and that the local market conditions have changed. He also noted that while the venue met its initial goal of employing 3,000 individuals when it opened last year, it now has a workforce of 2,300. “The people that I’ve spoken to, and our team has spoken to, are thankful for the 2,300,” Mathis said. “These are 2,300 great jobs, well-pay-

ing, with benefits, and we're launching careers. Sure, we'd love the number to be higher, because it would be a reflection that the business is higher, and that will come with time.” MGM Resorts proposed building a casino resort in Bridgeport in September 2017, but has been unable to change state law that gives exclusive rights to casino operation to the Mohegan and Mashantucket Pequot tribes. Gov. Ned Lamont had requested the company and the tribes work together on an equitable solution, but the tribes ignored his directive. A bipartisan bill introduced last month called the Connecticut Jobs and Revenue Act (CJRA) would enable a tribal-operated casino in Bridgeport, provided that the tribes to allocate a minimum of $100 mil-

lion toward a projected $300 million venue. In comparison, the MGM Bridgeport project was presented as a $675 million project funded entirely through private capital.

SHELTON PROPERTY SELLS FOR $6.6 MILLION; NINE-BUILDING COMPLEX PLANNED

Developer Fountain Square LLC has bought 801 Bridgeport Ave. in Shelton for $6.6 million from The United Illuminating Co. According to Coldwell Banker Commercial NRT Senior Vice President Chris O’Hara, who represented UI in the transaction, the property consists of 104,000 square feet of office/warehouse and vehicle maintenance facilities. Fountain Square has received approval from the city to develop the site into a 125,000-square-foot, nine-building complex with a 123-room hotel, office building,

WCHN WARNS PATIENTS ABOUT POSSIBLE DATA BREACH

Western Connecticut Health Network is addressing a privacy incident involving information pertaining to some of its patients. On June 21, WCHN — now known as Nuvance Health — learned that a box containing medical records that it had sent via the U.S. Postal Service to the Connecticut State Department of Public Health (DPH) had broken open during shipping and its contents were damaged. WCHN had sent the box of medical records to the DPH on June 11, in accordance with its reporting requirements under Connecticut law. The box was returned by the USPS to WCHN on July 9. The network — whose hospitals include Danbury

and Norwalk — said it “has no indication that the box of medical records ever left USPS custody until it was returned to WCHN.” The group’s examination determined that the box contained reports for some WCHN patients, which included patient names. “WCHN has no evidence that any information that was in the damaged box has been misused,” according to a statement by the network. “However, out of an abundance of caution, WCHN will begin mailing notification letters to potentially affected patients on Aug. 19, and has established a dedicated incident response line to answer any questions.” The network advises patients who believe they may be affected by the incident, but did not receive a letter by Aug. 30, to call 833-762-0225, Mondays through Fridays, 9 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.

about 1.5 million residents. “Coming together to become one health system gives us a tremendous opportunity to redefine how we provide care by improving on traditional health care experiences and elevating our ability to connect our communities with an expanded care network,” Nuvance CEO Dr. John Murphy said. As part of the Nuvance Health branding, keeping the names of the hospitals — Northern Dutchess Hospital in Rhinebeck, Putnam Hospital Center in Carmel and Vassar Brothers Medical Center in Poughkeepsie, all in New York, and Sharon Hospital, New Milford Hospital, Danbury Hospital and Norwalk Hospital in Connecticut — was important recognition of their unique

histories and devotion and connectivity to their respective communities, according to the company. “With our Nuvance Health brand firmly in place, we have an opportunity to create an incredible energy and culture for our new health system, for our employees and for our community,” said Robert Friedberg, president of Nuvance Health. “Our patients have told us they value a health care partner who stands for something beyond what is expected.” In the coming year, Nuvance Health said it would launch programs and services designed to make health care easier for patients to navigate across the growing health system.

Touro Dental Health opens wide with expansion at Valhalla campus BY PETER KATZ pkatz@westfairinc.com

T

he Touro College of Dental Medicine has more expansion plans for Touro Dental Health, the facility where the public can receive affordable dental care from Touro’s students and faculty. The clinic’s location on the campus of New York Medical College in Valhalla recently was expanded by 6,800 square feet to accommodate an additional 28 dental chairs. It now covers 38,000 square feet with a total of 109 dental chairs. Additional expansion plans include turning what’s now vacant space into a dedicated pediatric dental space capable of serving children with special needs and making additional primary medical care available to dental patients from New York Medical College’s faculty physicians. “It’s certainly a unique

situation for a dental educational institution to be able to offer both primary health care and oral health care under the same roof,” Ronnie Myers, dean of Touro College of Dental Medicine, told the Business Journal. “I would venture to say of the 66 dental schools in the U.S. there are much less than a handful that could claim that under their roof they’re providing this service.” Myers said although the family health practice within the Touro Dental Health facility is limited right now, “I would hope that we can expand.” Myers is a doctor of dental surgery and explained that there’s a natural fit to offering both oral and primary health care services. “If somebody were to go to the family health center and their physician notices oral lesions or periodontal disease they can make the direct referral of having the patient walk across the hallway to be seen in the Touro Dental Health facility,” Myers said.

Along with the physical expansion, Touro College of Dental Medicine has expanded its faculty. Since April, it has hired about 30 additional experienced dental professionals. Myers said there are about 85 full-time and part-time dentists on the faculty with another 50 people involved in operating the clinical and educational facilities. “The great majority of them live in Westchester and avail themselves of the services in Westchester, both recreational and business. It speaks to the fact that this facility has brought value to the county,” Myers said. With the additional dental chairs and faculty members to supervise and work with the students, Touro Dental Health has the capacity to see about 400 patients per day. “We already have 8,500 patients who are registered in our system to date. I think that’s a significant number of patients who are being serviced by our facility,” Myers

told the Business Journal. The dental school opened in the summer of 2016 and was the first to be established in New York state in 50 years. “We are the only dental educational institution essentially north of Manhattan,” Myers said. “Manhattan has two dental schools, but north of Manhattan there is not another high-capacity dental care facility,” he said, referring to Touro Dental Health. It generally charges for the services it provides, but does periodically offer free services for children and others during special events it holds. “Anybody that comes in with an emergency we would not turn away,” Myers said. “Our fee schedule is probably in the neighborhood of 50% of what private practices in Westchester would charge for services. We are in the process of being credentialed by every insurance company we can, including Medicaid, so there are no insurances we don’t want to take at this

particular time.” Myers said the dental health facility is run as a series of small practices. “We’ve named each of these practices after counties in the lower Hudson Valley, so we have a Westchester practice and a Putnam practice and an Orange practice and so forth. These practices are supervised by licensed faculty with one full-time practice leader, one assistant full-time practice leader and multiple part-time faculty. The supervision of any particular procedure would be dependent on that procedure. The more complex the procedure, the more time the faculty would spend and may even do the procedure with the student. The supervision is dependent specifically on the stage and development of the student as well as the complexity of the procedure. If somebody is doing a cleaning they would need obviously more intermittent supervision than, let’s say, a more complex proce-

dure where the faculty member might actually do the procedure,” Myers explained. When asked about patient satisfaction, Myers said they have done surveys and score well above 90%. “We practice in teams so we take the utmost care to make sure that the quality is what it needs to be. We have a robust quality assurance program in which we review cases and the quality of care that is going on,” he said. Myers said he’s looking forward to next May when the students in Touro College of Dental Medicine’s first graduating class will receive their diplomas. It’s anticipated there will be 103 of them. “It’s all about the educational process and the provision of good quality care,” he said. “We are in business to serve our patients, to provide an educational facility that can be second to none and to provide an educational process for our students that is second to none.” AUGUST 26, 2019

estmed Medical Group, the multispecialty medical practice with 13 locations in Westchester and Fairfield and ProHEALTH Dental based in Lake Success on Long Island are affiliating to form WestDental where Westmed patients can receive a full range of dental services. “Recognizing the significance of oral health as an important part of overall health, we are excited to announce this clinical affiliation with ProHEALTH Dental, and further our mission of partnering with our patients in their comprehen-

sive care,” Westmed’s CEO Anthony Viceroy said. The first WestDental facility is planned to be at the Ridge Hill shopping center in Yonkers where Westmed already has offices. The Business Journal was told that although there is no firm opening date, it is expected to be open by the end of the year. Also, the WestDental office will be separate from Westmed and Westmed and ProHEALTH Dental will remain separate legal entities that are each solely responsible for the care of their respective patients. ProHEALTH Dental personnel will not have access to Westmed’s patient records, the Business Journal wasB:7.875” told. “We are extremely proud that Westmed has T:7.375” selected us as their oral health affiliate. Their

commitment to providing high-quality medical care aligns with our mission to help patients understand the importance of good oral health as an important element of their overall health and well-being,” said Norton L.

Westmed has about 500 physicians, more than 1,500 clinical employees and more than 350,000 patients.

ew York Medical College (NYMC) will be receiving a grant of $450,000 from New York state which will help to add an additional 9,500 square feet of space to its BioInc biotechnology incubator and expand its Center for Disaster Medicine (CDM) to include additional dedicated classroom and seminar space. The BioInc space at NYMC’s Valhalla’s campus is filled to capacity and the expansion is expected to create room for up to 20 more startup companies. Salomon Amar, who is the vice president for research and a professor of pharmacology and microbiology and immunology at NYMC and also provost for biomedical research and chief biomedical research officer for Touro College and University System, said, “Since it was first launched nearly five years ago, BioInc@NYMC has become an important force in New York’s biomedical industry. With the state’s support, this expansion will advance BioInc’s ability to fuel biomedical innovation in the Hudson Valley while enhancing our students’ training and their ability to compete in the pharmaceutical industry.” The state money is distributed as part of a matching funds program in which the recipient school spends $3 of its own money on a project for every $1 the state awards to the project. The state funds come from the Higher Education Capital (HECap) Matching Grant Program. Where the HECap money goes is decided upon by its board. Edward C. Halperin, chancellor and CEO at NYMC, said, “Matched with our own institutional funding, this HECap award will allow our Center for Disaster Medicine to continue to be at the forefront of disaster medicine, while expanding our incubator’s capacity to bring cutting-edge biotechnology to New York state.” Robert W. Amler, vice president for government affairs and dean and professor of public health at NYMC, said, “New York’s investment in BioInc and the Center for Disaster Medicine is a grand endorsement of the incubator’s remarkable success to date and the vital importance of the research and training provided by the Center for Disaster Medicine.” CDM has been providing training to first responders for the past 13 years.

Bridgeport Hospital offers spray-on skin process for burn victims BY KEVIN ZIMMERMAN kzimmerman@westfairinc.com

W

e’ve all heard of sprayon tans — but what about spray-on skin? It may sound futuristic, but that future is already here at The Connecticut Burn Center at Bridgeport Hospital. The center's medical director, Dr. Alisa Savetamal, said the process can save time and spare patients some of the pain associated with skin grafting. “We’re always looking for ways to improve care,” she said, “and this has a lot of promise.” The process, which Bridgeport has been using for about four months, involves ReCell, the first product from Australian company Avita Medical. The ReCell device enables health care professionals

to produce a suspension of sprayon skin cells using a small sample of the patient’s own skin. The sample is processed in the operating room over 15 to 30 minutes, being mixed into a liquid that can be applied to the skin using a low-tech spray syringe. The cells in the solution then take hold and begin to grow, forming a fresh layer of normal skin. “It’s a new way of skin grafting but with much smaller donor sites,” Savetamal said, noting that the process can be especially beneficial for patients with large burns who may have limited healthy skin available for skin grafting. “This is not eliminating skin grafting,” she said. “Depending on the size of the burn, ReCell can be used alone or in addition to grafting.” For a standard skin graft, sur-

Avita Medical’s ReCell device, which allows doctors to effectively spray skin cells onto small burn patches.

geons usually remove an area of healthy skin no smaller than three-quarters of the size of the wound, then stretch it over the damaged area. As the grafts use

the top layers of skin, where most nerves are located, significant pain can be associated with the process. “The benefit from ReCell for our burn patients is that they don't have as large donor sites to heal in addition to their burns,” Savetamal said. “Fewer and smaller donor sites also mean less pain.” The U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved ReCell last September — the first spray-on skin product to be granted such approval. Savetamal said that to date the burn center, the only one in the state, and one of only 65 in the nation, verified by the American Burn Association and American College of Surgeons for meeting national standards in the treatment of burns, has treated five patients, two of them with substantial burns, utilizing ReCell.

The burn center at Bridgeport Hospital treats about 230 patients a year, she said. According to the American Burn Association and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, each year nearly 500,000 fire or burn injuries were seen at emergency departments in the U.S. Avita estimates that inpatient treatment of burns in the U.S., the initial target for ReCell, is an approximately $200 million market. Other companies are reportedly working on a variety of devices similar to ReCell, including Scottsdale, Arizona-based RenovaCare, whose SkinGun sprays a liquid suspension of a patient’s stem cells onto wounds. “We’re very pleased with what we’ve seen so far,” Savetamal said. “And we’re very optimistic about using it going forward.”

CELEBRATING YONKERS | AUGUST 26, 2019


The City of Yonkers is undergoing a renaissance unlike anything it has experienced in its history. With more than $3.5 billion in private development and thousands of new residential units completed, Yonkers is ideally positioned as the next great urban center on par with Brooklyn, Jersey City and Hoboken. The secret’s out — Yonkers is the city to live, work and play in. That’s why major national and regional developers such as RXR Realty, Extel, Avalon, Rose Associates, National Resources, AMS Acquisitions, Simone Development and Ginsburg Development, to name a few, are making significant investments in our city. They clearly see the opportunities for growth in an urban location that offers a diverse population, an abundance of affordable loft space, a lively restaurant and arts scene, and a scenic Hudson River location that is less than 30 minutes by train to Grand Central Station. They are also attracted to the city’s business-friendly environment that encourages smart development and offers financial incentives through its Industrial Development Agency. The exciting future of Yonkers is happening right now — I invite everyone to be part of it.

YONKERS: THE PLACE TO INVEST

IN SIX YEARS NEARLY $1.3 BILLION IN PRIVATE DEVELOPMENT THE

EXTRAORDINARY

RENAISSANCE

under way in the city of Yonkers continues at a tremendous pace with over $3.5 billion in development and nearly 9,000 residential units under construction, approved, renovated or built new. Major developers are attracted to the city’s new urban vibe where millennials, as well as empty nesters, enjoy the city’s hip new restaurants, trend-setting art galleries, stunning Hudson River views and easy access to Metro-North service that is less than 30 minutes to Grand Central Station. Much of the new development in Yonkers is taking place along the city’s waterfront. RXR Realty has begun leasing Sawyer Place, which features two towers with 440 luxury rental units. Just a few blocks away, Strategic Capital completed the final phase

of Hudson Park River Club, a 213-unit tower. Other riverfront developments include Extell Development’s mixed-use complex that will include 1,394 residences and 48,280 square feet of commercial space. Nearby, AvalonBay Communities is building a 609unit rental project. Manhattan-based Rose Associates has approvals to build a 440-unit rental on the waterfront. AMS Acquisitions of Manhattan is planning to build a mixed-use residential center and luxury hotel on a downtown parcel known as Chicken Island. Ginsburg Development Companies has two major projects completed and leased in the northwest section of Yonkers. River Tides at Greystone features two towers totaling 330 luxury rental units overlooking the Palisades. “Yonkers’ transformation is happening in every corner of our city, especially along the waterfront,” said Yonkers Mayor Mike Spano. “From new housing opportunities and new businesses to new urban parks and green spaces, Yonkers has become Westchester’s place to live, work and play.” Millennials and empty nesters are discovering the city’s abundance of affordable loft space; its lively restaurant and arts scene and the scenic Hudson River views. And all less than 30 minutes by train to Grand Central Station. To build upon Yonkers unique selling points, the city launched its highly successful Generation Yonkers marketing campaign, an innovative economic development initiative created by the Westchester-based advertising agency Thompson & Bender. Now in its sixth year, the campaign is credited with putting Yonkers on the map and positioning it as the region’s next great urban frontier. “Thanks in part to the Generation Yonkers marketing campaign, Yonkers has enjoyed enormous growth over the past six years,” said Mayor Spano. The latest campaign — titled “We Are Gen Y” -- features Uri Clinton, president and COO, Empire City Casino; Yonkers muralist Nancy Mendez; Aurea Roman, owner, How Sweet It Is; and Yonkers residents Jonathan Rios and Saul Caguao. The key factor behind the city’s renaissance is the business-friendly environment created under the leadership of Mayor Spano that encourages smart urban development. By providing financial incentives through the Yonkers Industrial Development Agency, the city has fueled an unprecedented development boom. From 2012 to 2018, the IDA provided incentives for 40 projects representing a private investment of nearly $1.3 billion. Those projects created more than 2,700 residential units, over 5,000 construction jobs and more than 1,800 full-time jobs. A message from the city of Yonkers.

1015 SAW MILL RIVER ROAD YONKERS, NEW YORK 10710

About the Daylighting of the Saw Mill River at Larkin Plaza The Saw Mill River was buried beneath the City of Yonkers at the beginning of the 20th Century. “Daylighting” the river is returning the river to a more natural, open-air condition, providing many community and ecological benefits — a focus of Yonkers’ plan for social and economic progress. PS&S created an award-winning design that included daylighting of the river within a beautiful new urban park. It features two dynamic pools and three strategically placed waterfalls, a diverse habitat filled with aquatic life transformed from an old parking lot. The design also preserved the existing underground flume. Peak flows will be diverted to the flume, to avoid potentially hazardous flooding in the urban park and make economical re-use of the existing, viable asset.

Good Things Westchester County ELDER LAW ATTORNEY NAMED BEST LAWYER Anthony J. Enea of Enea, Scanlan & Sirignano LLP, an elder law attorney in White Plains and Somers, has been selected by his peers for inclusion in the 26th edition of “The Best Lawyers in America” in the practice areas of elder law and trusts and estates. “It’s an honor to be recognized for my 30-plus years of work in elder law and wills, trusts and estates,” Enea said. He is president of the Westchester County Bar Foundation and chair of the New York State Bar Association’s Senior Lawyers Section. This marks the ninth consecutive year he has been included in the Best Lawyers list. Enea was recognized as a Best Lawyers® “Lawyer of the Year” in White Plains five times and has been named as one of Westchester County’s “Super Lawyers” annually since 2007.

NWH LAUNCHES FOOD RECOVERY PROGRAM Northern Westchester Hospital has launched a food-rescue operation to benefit the Community Center of Northern Westchester, a hub of emergency resources that serves area residents, one in five of whom suffers from food insecurity. To start, the hospital is providing approximately 60 meals a week to CCNW’s food pantry, which are picked up by volunteers four days a week. The organization serves almost 2,000 families in more than 38 northern Westchester communities, two-thirds from Mount Kisco and Ossining. Neighbors who turn to the Community Center for support are new arrivals as well as residents who have deep roots in the community. The partnership came about through the efforts of Elie Abemayor, a gastroenterologist and chairman of the hospital’s medical board, who wanted to find a way to serve the community outside the hospital. Hospital President and CEO Joel Seligman immediately approved the project. According to Rebecca Martin, senior director of dining services, who is spearheading the rescue operation on behalf of the hospital, the food donated to CCNW is part of NWH’s Food is Care program, which integrates food and health care in an inventive way. “This is hospital food people want to eat,” said Martin, noting that the head chef came from a Michelin-starred restaurant and that the food scores in the 90th percentile on patient surveys. “People think of Westchester as a wealthy enclave, but one in five of the county’s residents are food insecure, meaning they do not have access at all times to enough food for active, healthy living,” said Susan Bretti, CCNW’s assistant director of operations.

Olti Begaj of Poughkeepsie and a student at Dutchess Community College was awarded $1,000 by Tompkins Mahopac Bank Make and Accelerate Scholarship. An aspiring electrical technician, Begaj is enrolled in DCC’s electrical technology program and is on track to graduate with his associate’s degree in May 2020.

“The (Make and Accelerate) Scholarship has paid for my tuition expense, allowing me to focus on my academic pursuits,” Begaj said. To help address the critical need for workforce development in the communities it serves, the bank created the Make and Accelerate Scholarship to

support Hudson Valley students who demonstrate exceptional talent, drive and a love for manufacturing. The scholarship, in its second year, is now awarded by the Dutchess Community College and Westchester Community College foundations to outstanding students in their technical programs.

COLLABORATIVE CONCEPTS FARM PROJECT 2019

Storm King and Collaborative Concepts have large sculptural arts works in common, with a herd of cattle, which makes a great interaction of animals with art. The result of combining art with animals, however, is hard to predict. It never creates repetition, only surprises and discoveries of how the two interact with each other. The cows have been great critics of the sculptures each year, having favorites and some that they serenade. This fall the artists seem to have created works that center mostly around two themes. The first is one of abstract and nature. Linda Schmidt has created

a large panel of brightly woven cloth fabrics, mimicking an abstract painting. Max Yawney’s 16-foot-wide painting hangs between two trees on steel cable hovering 7 feet above the ground. Brightly colored geometric imagery will swing in the breeze. Hildreth Potts large Poodle of wire and steel wool brings whimsy to the farm. The Animal Farm Redux, resembling a large Rubik’s Cube of George Orwell’s Animal Farm has been created by the Storm King School. The second theme among artists is headline news topics concerning women and migration. Artists are afforded the freedom to

create whatever they want, whether that is creating something grand or silly or experimental and it even gives them permission to fail. Throw in some fun challenges — the huge scale of the farm, weather and “cow proofing” and the show becomes even more irresistible. Collaborative Concepts, a not-forprofit, nonmembership organization of professional artists, bringing together sculpture and installations by more than 40-plus participants on the rolling fields of the 140-acre Saunders’ Farm, 853 Old Albany Post Road in Garrison.

The studio is next to the marketing team in Heineken’s White Plains office, providing them with access to real-time data and close proximity to the brand teams that are responsible for briefing, reviewing and approving work. As a result, the team is able to quickly localize messaging and visuals, in turn delivering the best possible creative, according to the company. The in-house studio not only enables Heineken to be more efficient, but also helps the company stay on top of what’s resonating with consumers. The new setup will enable the team to work faster and better than before and also allows the full team to take a renewed focus on innovation, which is a priority for the business. HEINEKEN USA’s new creative team includes Cam Gaylord; Sean Marcano, a production designer; Ed Moza, a production designer; Arquimedes DelaCruz, a graphic designer; and Tina Carbonell, a creative director.

$2.25 MILLION GIFT TO VASSAR Family members and friends of a recently deceased Vassar College alumnus have announced they will donate $2.25 million to the college to help support Vassar’s educational programs in the Poughkeepsie City School District. The bulk of the money will ensure the continuation of the Vassar College Urban Education Initiative (VCUEI), which provides tutors, mentors and other assistance for the city’s elementary and secondary school students, for the next decade. The program was launched in 2004. The gift, which is contingent on $1.25 million in matching donations, was announced by Propel Capital, a New York-based social impact investment firm and family and friends of Daniel Mindich ‘87, an educator who died in a swimming accident near his home in Honolulu, Hawaii, in 2014. Mindich, who earned master’s and doctorate degrees in education from Stanford University following his graduation from Vassar, was an English and history teacher at Punahou School, a K-12 school in Honolulu. The seeds for the donation for the Dan Mindich Teacher Project were planted by Dan’s twin brother, Jeremy Mindich. “Just before Dan died he was beginning to think about how he could use the research he had done in graduate school to make a bigger difference in the field…” John Bradley, executive director of the Urban Education Initiative, said the grant will sustain a program that benefits both the Poughkeepsie community and Vassar students. Poughkeepsie Board of Education President Felicia Watson said she is excited to learn that Vassar’s continuing partnership with the district was now assured.


FELDMAN MAKES THE BEST LAWYERS IN AMERICA

Feldman, Kleidman, Coffey & Sappe LLP (FKC&S) a Fishkill-based law firm with clients throughout the Hudson Valley and Capital District, has announced that founding partner Jeffrey M. Feldman has been selected by his peers as a 2020 “Lawyer of the Year” award recipient for his work in medical malpractice law-defendants in White Plains. The 26th edition of The Best Lawyers in America marks the 12th consecutive year that Feldman is being honored in the areas of medical malpractice law — defendants and personal injury litigation — defendants. “For 12 consecutive years, Best Lawyers has recognized our firm among the best in our field,” Feldman said. “It is an extraordinary honor to be named by my peers as a ‘Lawyer of the Year’ in 2020.” Feldman is being recognized in the White Plains metro area, which includes Poughkeepsie, Brewster, Newburgh, Pearl River, Kingston, New City, Suffern, Carmel and many other cities in the Hudson Valley region. Throughout his career, Feldman has received a myriad of legal recognitions, including being named as a New York State “Super Lawyer” every year since 2008.

WESTCHESTER PHILHARMONIC NAMES NEW BOARD LEADERSHIP The Westchester Philharmonic’s Board of Directors elected Numa Rousseve to be its next chairman, and Christina Maurillo treasurer. Rousseve succeeds longtime Chair Millicent Kaufman, who was named chair emerita and will retain that title as long as she is a board member. Vice chairs Mary D. Neumann and Murray Stahl continue in their roles. Rousseve joined the Philharmonic board in 2017 and has served as treasurer for the past year. An avocational singer, Rousseve has been a member of the Westchester Choral Society serving as its treasurer and president. In his youth Rousseve was the first black Jesuit seminarian in the New Orleans Province, later teaching English and speech at Jesuit High School in Dallas, and earning a New York State Herbert Lehman fellowship at NYU. In 1970, he switched careers and entered the commercial bank lending industry with Bankers Trust Company. He ended his long professional banking career at HSBC Bank in 2012. Maurillo, who joined the board in 2017, is a financial planner at Barnum Financial Group. She earned her MBA in finance from Fordham University’s Gabelli School of Business and completed an executive program at the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University.

LOCAL COMPANIES BRING SUMMER FUN TO CAMP

The Brighter Futures Summer Camp run by Lifting Up Westchester is the only camp in Westchester that targets homeless children. This year, 94 children attended the camp, which ran for four weeks in July at George Washington School in White Plains. With a little help from local corporations and community groups that hosted a variety of recreational activities, including bracelet making, t-shirt decorating and field days to add a bit of spice to the daily

camp program, the campers had a blast. Markhoff and Mittman, a White Plains disability law firm, helped run the annual camp carnival for the fifth consecutive year. Interns from Acadia Realty organized an afternoon of relay races, volleyball and water balloon games and treated campers to a visit from the ice cream truck. A pizza lunch, kickball games and arts and crafts were hosted by the White Plains Rotary Club, which also brought along a

cotton-candy machine that was a hit with both campers and counselors. Anahaita Kotval, CEO of Lifting Up Westchester, commented, “It’s great when the entire community comes together to add to the fun of our summer camp. These kids normally have so little to look forward to during the summer and it’s a treat to seeing them enjoying a visit from an ice cream truck or experiencing a special afternoon of games and entertainment.”

HOSPITAL UNVEILS ADVANCED SLEEP CENTER

Hudson Valley native and rising culinary talent Thomas Burke will lead the kitchen of the soon-to-open Mirbeau Inn & Spa Rhinebeck, including its just-announced signature restaurant, Willow by Charlie Palmer. The chef has honed his skills at some of the most prestigious restaurants in the U.S. and joins the Mirbeau team from Connecticut’s award-winning Tavern at GrayBarns. Burke was tapped for his new role by world-renowned chef Charlie Palmer, who, in his first upstate New York venture, will oversee all food and beverage operations at the 50room resort, from Willow to in-room dining, the light-fare venue Aqua Terrace, Willow Bar and catering. “We’ve put together a great team for this project and are thrilled to become part of this community. Our executive chef, Thomas Burke — a Westchester native — and I are looking forward to showcasing all that the Hudson Valley’s farms have to offer,” said Palmer. Before his two-year tenure as chef de cuisine of Tavern at GrayBarns, Burke served as chef de partie of three of the most lauded restaurants on both coasts: most recently The French Laundry in Yountville, California, preceded by Le Bernardin in midtown Manhattan and Boulevard in San Francisco. From 2012 to 2014, he was executive sous chef of Purdys Farmer and The Fish in North Salem. He launched his career as sous chef at BRIO Tuscan Grille in Danbury, Connecticut.

NEWS NOON Responding to the urgency for a good night’s sleep and treatment for potentially life-threatening sleep disorders, White Plains Hospital has unveiled an advanced sleep center facility at 101 Post Road in White Plains. It offers state-of-the-art sleep diagnostic services, specializing in adult and pediatric sleep disorders, includ-

ing sleep apnea, a serious and potentially life-threatening condition suffered by over 18 million Americans. “This common pediatric sleep disorder, where people temporarily stop breathing or have reduced breathing of 10 seconds or more during their sleep, prevents a deeper, restorative sleep that’s important

for school children,” said Fulvia Milite, director of the Sleep Center and a specialist in pulmonary and sleep medicine. The new, expanded Sleep Center at WPH provides overnight sleep studies in five quiet rooms. The facility also has kid-friendly pediatric rooms with accommodations for parents.

Nutmeg State Financial Credit Union recently donated more than 100 backpacks filled with school supplies to students throughout the greater Hartford area. As a Community Development Financial Institution (CDFI) and long-time supporter of local charities, this is Nutmeg’s fifth year of donating backpacks and school supplies. Since the start of

this initiative in 2015, the credit union has donated a total of more than 1,000 backpacks. “We’re happy to give back to our communities in any way we can,” said John Holt, president and CEO of Nutmeg. “And while we may stress the importance of financial education, we also know how important it is for students to start off the

school year right with the supplies they need.” Chartered in 1936 and headquartered in Rocky Hill, Nutmeg State Financial Credit Union is open to anyone who lives, works, worships, attends school or volunteers in the Hartford, New Haven, Middlesex or Tolland counties as well as the cities of Shelton, Stratford and Bridgeport.

BANKWELL CARES Earlier this year, as part of the Bankwell Pet Adoption Project, the bank held a drive throughout its branch network to collect pet supplies and cash donations through its coin machines for local rescues in need. As a result of the drive, Bankwell shared the supplies and matched the cash donations for a total of $2,500 to local shelters, including Ridgefield Animal Operation for Animal Rescue (ROAR), STARelief and Pet Assistance, Stamford Animal Control, Red Leash Rescue, PAWS in Norwalk and Westport Animal Shelter Advocates. This is the third year of Bankwell’s Pet Adoption Project, a program that features photos and information about available dogs and cats from local shelters throughout Connecticut on billboards, ads, social media and the bank’s website. After the bank kick-offed its program in 2017, the adoption rate at local shelters spiked — more than 90% of featured animals were adopted this year. Portraits of the featured animals are made possible by local photographer, Michael Bagley who volunteered his professional services to the program. Bagley has photographed more than 10,000 animals over 10 years in an effort to save homeless animals. For more, visit mybankwell.com/pleaseadoptme.

SIMSBURY FREE LIBRARY BOARD MEMBER RETIRES The legacy of architect Richard Schoenhardt can be seen throughout Simsbury in the many buildings he designed. However, his behind-the-scenes work as a member of the Simsbury Free Library’s Board of Trustees for 22 years has made an indelible impact. Schoenhardt, 87, stepped down on July 22 from his position on the board. “Rick’s accomplishments during his tenure have enriched every aspect of the library,” said Tara Willerup, vice chairman, Simsbury Free Library Board of Trustees. “We will all miss his unique skill set and dedication to history, education and preservation.” Schoenhardt was responsible for many improvements, restoration, preservation and rebuilding during his tenure. His son, Matthew Schoenhardt, a Realtor with William Raveis and resident of Simsbury, will succeed his father as a member of the board. “I am thrilled that I can still have a connection to the library as my son continues the vital mission of this organization,” said Schoenhardt. “In addition to the restoration and preservation of original building features and artwork, the accomplishment I am most proud of during my time is instilling a love of history and service in Matt.”

NORWALK COMMUNITY HEALTH CENTER RECEIVES $30,000 GRANT Norwalk Community Health Center Inc. (NCHC) has received a $30,000 grant from Fairfield County’s Community Foundation Fund for Women and Girls to provide low-income teens and women of child-bearing age tools to make informed decisions about family planning and family spacing and expand access to appropriate contraception. “Lack of access to affordable contraception, particularly long-acting reversible options, which can cost upwards of $800, deprive a woman of her ability to decide when and if she is financially and emotionally ready to have a child to start or add to her family,” said John Gettings, Norwalk Community Health Center Inc. interim CEO. Norwalk Community Health Center, Inc. is a nationally recognized federally qualified health center and nonprofit health care provider.

The Palace Theatre provided Circus Camp scholarships to 30 children in third, fourth and fifth grade from the Boys & Girls Club of Greenwich through a grant from the First County Bank Foundation.

Dozens of young people from across Fairfield County experienced the joy of the big top in a whole new way — as performers. The Palace Theatre’s Circus Camp, in partnership with the Boys & Girls Club of Greenwich and the Stamford Family Y, brought the circus arts to area youth for the fourth consecutive year. The organization provided scholarships to 60 children in third, fourth and fifth grade through grants from the First County Bank

Foundation, sponsor of the Boys & Girls Club of Greenwich program, and the Legg Mason Charitable Foundation, sponsor of the Stamford Family Y program Held this year at both The Palace Theatre and Boys & Girls Club of Greenwich, Circus Camp focused on teaching campers a number of hands-on skills working closely with two professional circus artists and performers from the Big Apple Circus, Liz Bolick and Therese Schorn.

“Arts Education is extremely important to The Palace,” said the organization’s President and CEO Michael Moran. “As a nonprofit, we understand the importance of collaboration and see the tremendous value of reaching out through the arts to benefit our community….” Located at 61 Atlantic St. in Stamford, the 1,580-seat Palace Theatre is dedicated to performing arts of all genres — music, dance, theater and comedy.
