Sewage work on Sunrise nears an end

LONG BEACH HERALD — November 9, 2023

By NICOLE FORMISANO nformisano@liherald.com

If your commute on Sunrise Highway has been interrupted by construction, there’s good news: It’s almost finished.

Construction crews are in the final stages of installing over 10 miles of pipe systems along Sunrise to connect two water-treatment facilities. The project, called Bay Park Conveyance, began in the summer of 2021, with the goal of eliminating excessive nitrogen pollution in Nassau County’s Western Bays. The construction is now 77 percent completed, according to the Long Island Regional Planning Council.

“The construction crews have been working on that the last few weeks,” Andrew Fera, the project director from the state Department of Environmental Conservation, said of the final phase of construction along Sunrise Highway.

“We certainly hope that we can get this complete by the end of November.”

The Long Beach portion of the larger Bay Park Conveyance Project will start to be underway as well. The project will move treated water from the South Shore Water Reclamation Facility in East Rockaway to the Cedar Creek Water Pollution Control Plant outfall pipe. The plant currently discharges about 50 million gallons of water into Reynolds Channel each day.

The treated water will be conveyed by the construction of a two-mile-long force main from the water reclamation facility to an existing aqueduct underneath Sunrise Highway, rehabilitation of a seven-mile stretch of the aqueduct and construction of a nearly two-milelong force main.

The Long Beach portion involves the decommissioning of the city’s wastewater treatment plant and converting it to a pump station that will send the city’s sewage to the Water Reclamation Facility for treatment. According to the city, this project will eliminate about 75 million gallons a day of treated sewage from being discharged into the back bays, which will greatly improve water quality, the natural ecosystem and storm resiliency.

The entire project is estimated to cost $513 million, with funding coming from federal, state, county and city sources.

The Long Beach portion of the project is currently expected to be complete by October 2025, City Spokesman John McNally said.

During the projects, some access to several city recreational facilities will be restricted or prohibited. City facilities impacted will include the skate park, boat ramp, kayak rental, bocce court and dog run.

Access to the parking lot by these areas will also be subject to closure effective September 5. Once the street and lot are closed, access to the skate park will be limited to the recreation center parking lot on Magnolia Avenue until full closure is necessary at some point in 2024. Access to all other facilities is expected to be restricted until the

The Bay Park Conveyance project involves the installation of over 10 miles of pipe systems along Sunrise Highway. Residents have complained about the noise and inconvenience of the construction. Project officials say it’s likely to be done by Nov. projects are complete in October 2025.

For years, the South Shore Water Reclamation Facility, in East Rockaway — formerly known as the Bay Park Sewage Treatment Plant — has been pumping 50 million gallons of treated sewage per day into the Western Bays. The resulting nitrogen pollution causes an overgrowth of algae and an increase in harmful toxins and bacteria, according to the Environmental Protection Agency.

The underground pipes will reroute the effluent from the East Rockaway facility to the Cedar Creek Water Pollution Control Plant in Wantagh, where it will be pumped out into the Atlantic.

Fera detailed the rerouting in a digital presentation on Oct. 26 by the planning council, the DEC and the Nassau Coun-

ty Department of Public Works, which are partners in the project.

Communities near the Western Bays will see better water quality and a revitalized shellfish habitat thanks to the project, Fera said. The reduced nitrogen will also help restore marshland, which plays a key role in protecting the South Shore from flooding during storms.

In the meantime, however, residents who live near the construction have had to endure loud noise, bright lights and strong vibrations during the night as crews have worked on the project from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m.

“We did all we could to reduce the noise impacts and let everyone know what to expect for those couple of weeks when we’re in that neighborhood,” Fera

said. “We did our best to be the least impactful we could, albeit with a major civil construction project.

“Unfortunately, there are things that are tough to mitigate,” he added.

The construction has necessitated traffic diversions along Sunrise that have irked some commuters. As well, steel sheets have temporarily replaced sections of the road, which drivers and nearby residents have complained made traffic excessively noisy. As construction comes to an end, these measures are slowly being phased out, and crews are now working on restoring the asphalt.

When possible, the planning council revised the plans to reduce impact on local communities — and in one instance, part of the East Rockaway High School property.

“There was going to be a major impact to that high school, which we were really trying to avoid,” Fera said.

Instead, in a highly complicated rework, a curved section of piping was routed around the high school.

“We have successfully completed that drive,” Fera said, “and avoided the East Rockaway High School property entirely.”

If good weather continues and no unforeseen problems arise, all tunneling construction on the highway is expected to be finished by November, and all asphalt repairs finished by the end of December. If the Bay Park Conveyance remains on its current timeline, the project team will be able to turn the effluent-pumping system on next June, for a testing phase to evaluate how well it functions in extreme weather events.

The project’s Community Information Center is at 265 Sunrise Highway in Rockville Centre. Those interested in scheduling an appointment can contact BayParkConveyance@gmail.com, or the 24/7 Project Hotline (516) 252-6121.

Posh Pets holds first-ever Posh-A-Thon Posh Pets Animal Shelter has been a place for animals to temporarily call home while trying to find their forever home for years. Over 1,000 furry friends have passed through the shelter along their journey.

They hold events throughout the year, and collect funds, donations and volunteered time from tons of community members. The shelter introduced a new event Oct. 29 — the first-ever Posh-A-Thon.

The Posh-A-Thon saw community members and animal

lovers crowd Kennedy Plaza for a group walk. People wither came with their own fourlegged pals or walked with one of them up for adoption.

The walk began juts before noon from Kennedy Plaza, went down to Broadway by the boardwalk, and came back to Kennedy Plaza up Edwards Boulevard. The walk was about a mile and lasted about 20 minutes.

For more information about Posh Pets, or to volunteer or donate, visit PoshPetsRescueNY.org.

Posh Pets has been an active shelter in Long Beach for years, welcoming over 1,000 animals looking for homes.

Protecting Your Future with Michael and Suzanne Ettinger Attorneys-at-Law

Planning For and Executing Inheritances (Part One) Planning for, and then executing, inheritances is often fraught with emotion.

Most families choose to leave the inheritance “to my children in equal shares, per stirpes.”

Per stirpes is Latin meaning “by the roots” so that if a child dies before the parent, their sharegoes to their children (if any) in equal shares. If there are no children, then generally the inheritance is disregarded and their share goes to their surviving siblings in equal shares.

What about gifts to grandchildren? Let’s say one child has five children and the other has two children — seven grandchildren altogether.

When a significant gift is given to grandchildren equally, it is not uncommon for the child with two children to say “well it was my brother’s choice to have five children, why does my family end up getting less?” Good estate planning also looks at inheritances from the heirs’ point of view as well.

We are often asked whether inheritances should be discussed with children ahead of time.

While each family has different dynamics, this can end up being the equivalent of giving

children a veto power over what you are going to do. For example, if you seek their opinion on an unequal division, you will create a problem for the family if you choose to disregard their input. A better way might be the use of the “soft probe”.

Here, you suggest an idea that you have about an unequal division, and then gauge their reaction before making a decision.

For example, where one child is very much better off then another, you might say “You know, your sister Mary could really use our money a lot more...” The monied child will generally respond one of two ways. They will either say “of course, I don’t need it, leave it all to her” and you are off the hook, or they will indicate that they consider anything less than equal shares would be unfair. In the latter case, if you still want to help Mary more, you may give her gifts during your lifetime and keep peace in the family by leaving inheritances equally. You may also make some accounts joint with Mary or name her beneficiary and those accounts would not appear under the will or trust as part of the estate.

Republicans sweep City Council election Continued from page 1

republican patrick mullaney won the seat in the County Legislature’s 4th district, which was occupied by denise ford for 20 years. the City of Long Beach came out again in record numbers,” Treston said, adding, of the winners, “I wish them the best, and I hope that they will call me, because the first year is a learning curve.

I hope they’re open to collaboration, and it’s obvious that there’s a lot of mending to do.”

“Like I said before I came into this place tonight,” Posterli said, “I’m going to sleep really well tonight, because I left it all right on the floor.”

“Congratulation to the winners, because at the end of the day, no matter who wins, it’s still our city together,” Hodge said. “At the end of the day, let’s

give them a round of applause, because no matter who wins, if you’re real about this, this does not mean that your journey stops.”

Patrick Mullaney, a Long Beach Republican, unofficially won the race for the seat in the Nassau County Legislature 4th District, defeating Democrat Alexis Pace. Mullaney garnered 9,704 votes, to Pace’s 6,466.

“I’m speechless — I really am,” Mullaney said. “I can’t thank the people of Long Beach enough. It’s a great community to call home.”

For two decades the seat was held by Denise Ford, who did not seek re-election. Ford endorsed Mullaney.

“I wish him luck as he starts on his path to represent Legislative District 4,” Pace said of Mullaney. “A special thankyou to my supporters and volunteers for their tireless work during this effort.”

Republican Melissa “Missy” Miller, of Atlantic Beach, won re-election to the Hempstead Town Board in the town’s 3rd District, defeating Republican Ingrid Izzaguirre, of Valley Stream, 14,826 votes to 6,851.

“I am very happy with the results and humbled that my constituents have put their faith in me again,” Miller said. “I will not let them down. I will continue to work hard for everyone.”

Fiumara has lived in Long Beach for about 25 years, but spent many childhood summers on the city’s beaches.

He recalls talking with his family one day about the taxes in the city, and how he was unhappy with the state it was in.

His 6-year-old daughter turned to him and said, “You know, you always tell me to make a change and whatnot, and you have an opportunity to do so. Why don’t you run for City Council?”

So he did.

For Fiumara, the most important issue is the city budget. He thinks that the council — and the city — need new people to handle it.

“I have so many thank-yous, I don’t know who to thank first,” he said on Tuesday. “We were told this couldn’t be done, and I really am humbled by the support. I really look forward to making Long Beach the Long Beach we remember, we love, and everybody being happy again.”

Treston and Posterli, who were both incumbents, and Hodge, a first-time candidate, spoke Tuesday night at Billy’s Beach Café, where they gathered to watch the results come in.

Harvest celebration raises $465K to fight hunger STAFF REPORT The hunger crisis won’t be solved overnight, but Island Harvest took a big step to combat it last month at the food bank’s 29th annual Taste of the Harvest Celebration, which raised $465,000.

Nearly $110,000 of that will fund an additional 365 children in Island Harvest’s Kids Weekend Backpack Feeding Program, according to the Melville organization’s president and chief executive, Randi Shubin Dresner. That program acts as a supplemental food support initiative for children who rely on their school’s free breakfasts and lunches, but often don’t get enough to eat over the weekend when school is closed.

Other funds raised will help families, older adults and veterans facing hunger in Nassau and Suffolk counties.

In addition to the money raised, this year’s celebration also honored Barry and Marie Landsman, who received Island Harvest’s Above & Beyond Award.

The Bellmore couple have long been supporters of Island Harvest, conducting food drives, assisting with fundraising, and advising the nonprofit on matters involving the acquisition and financing of the organization’s main facility at 126 Spagnoli Road in Melville.

“For over two decades, we have had the privilege of working with Island Harvest,” the couple said, in a statement.

“Being the honorees at the Taste of Harvest event was a humbling and rewarding experience for us as parents and as Long Islanders, as we were honored to be a small part of raising funds for Island Harvest — in particular, the backpack program.”

The Landsmans are both attorneys, with Marie at Rivkin Radler, and Barry at Pryor Cashman.

They also have made fundraising a family tradition by involving their children, Zachary and Saria.

“It is critical we all do what we can to raise funds for this worthy cause as there are hundreds of thousands of Long Islanders who face food insecurity every day,” the Landsmans said. “These are our fellow Long Islanders, our friends and neighbors. Children. Seniors. And veterans. And, so, we hope every Long Islander joins us, and takes this moment in time to make a difference in the lives of those in need.”

Also honored was former longtime operations vice president and food procurement specialist Migdalia Otero-Terry, who received Island Harvest’s Linda Breitstone Spirit Award, named for the founder of Island Harvest. Otero-Terry was honored for her immeasurable contribution to the growth and success of the food bank during her tenure, which spanned two decades.

“I was humbled by the honor, and I find personal satisfaction that I have, and will continue to, help the Long Island community feeding those in need,” said Otero-Terry, now president and chief executive of MTC Consulting Services.

The celebration itself too place Oct. 24 at the Crest Hollow Country Club in Woodbury, attracting 450 guests. It was emceed by Pei-Sze Cheng, a member of

“On behalf of Island Harvest and our Long Island neighbors we serve, we are exceptionally grateful to everyone who helped make this year’s Taste of the Harvest Celebration a great financial success,” Shubin Dresner said. “Thanks go

out to our sponsors, guests, participating restaurants, staff, and the committee who helped raise much-needed funds, and create such a memorable and fun evening.”

The mission of Island Harvest Food Bank is to end hunger and reduce food waste on Long Island. It’s accomplished

through a number of innovative programs and services aimed at enhancing hunger awareness, short-term case management, nutrition education, outreach, and advocacy initiatives.

The song was chosen by Long Beach resident and Holocaust Committee member Nina Rosenberg, who thanked district Assistant Superintendent Janna Ostorff

The choir’s a cappella performance was enthusiastically applause.

non-Jewish lives and property.” Walsh said that learning from the past “can guide us to a future where human rights and diversity prevails, and allows each of us to live our lives in reconciliation and in freedom.”

City Council President John Bendo explained the history of the Nazi platform of denying citizenship and rights to Jews, “serving as a stark reminder of the horrors that can unfold when intolerance, prejudice and hatred are allowed to fester and escalate into violence and brutality. The fabricated Nazi claim that the Jews intended to destroy the Germans became the excuse for the Germans to destroy the Jews,” Bendo said. “On the Night of Broken Glass, the Nazis wanted the Jews fractured and scattered. We must celebrate our diversity and prioritize humanity over anything else, so that Kristallnacht remains locked into the past and does not become a part of our future.”

Keynote speaker Ira Birns, whose parents were Holocaust survivors, is a former Long Beach resident and a former president of the Holocaust National Memorial Committee of Long Island. He recalled how his mother, Edith Birns, who died in 2018, would take part in the candle-lighting ceremony during the Long Beach event, flanked by her grandchildren.

What’s NEWs IN aND OUt OF thE CLassROOM

HERALD SCHOOLS

Students continue busy, successful year Long Beach students are seemingly always busy. Whether it be academia, athletics, a mix of both or neither, they’re always accomplishing or completing something.

To that tune, the Long Beach High School Model Congress recently won their first competition of the year. Eight school districts gathered at East Meadow High School on Oct. 21 for public speaking and other fun events. Long Beach students secured Best Delegation with their strong debating and exceptional decorum.

Additionally, 11 Long Beach delegates won individual awards in committee.

Best Speaker Awards went to Josh Cohen, Jake Maloney and Ava Stavrianeas. Honorable mentions went to Zach Kramer and Gabby Moreira. Noam Borenstein, Daniel Brenner, Sophie Ferrera, Orly Keynan, Sebastian Perez and Emma Rosenthal earned commendations.

Model Congress is an extracurricular club that gives students a chance to engage in a role-playing simulation of the United States Congress. The schools get together and compete during eight weekends throughout the school year and rotate among the districts so each has an opportunity to host. The weekend event also includes meals, entertainment and awards, all organized by the students. Host schools welcome their guests with an opening ceremony in the auditorium and then break into small groups — or committees — in classrooms. Host students chair committees and lead debates on mock legislation dealing with a host of foreign and domestic issues.

Long Beach High School 10th grader Reese Gallinaro made an impact, completing fundraising efforts to help the people affected by the recent fires in Maui. Gallinaro explained as she felt similarities between the beach communities of Maui and Long Beach.

“I felt compelled to help the families impacted by these fires any way I could,” Gallinaro said. “Having been impacted by Superstorm Sandy, I can relate to having to rebuild after a natural disaster.”

She organized an online apparel store that allowed for the purchase of a shirt or sweatshirt with all the profits going to the non-profit Maui Food Bank, MauiFoodBank.org.

The fundraiser was able to raise enough money to enable the food bank to provide 1,200 meals for residents of the Maui community.

“I believe this fundraiser would be a good way to give back and recognize those in desperate need during this difficult time in Maui,” she said.

Long Beach Public Schools also have 79 student musicians from throughout the district who have been accepted to

Mount Sinai South Nassau held its annual Veterans Day celebration on Sept. 3 to express gratitude and appreciation for the valor and service of its employees and residents who have served in the US Armed Forces. The celebration was attended by hospital staff and administrators and local and state government officials.

The Mount Sinai South Nassau Veteran Employee Scholarship was awarded to hospital safety and security officer Oscar Torres Martinez of the US Army Reserves. Torres, 25 served four years of active duty in the U.S. Army after graduating from Freeport High School. The Freeport native attended Nassau Community College and is currently attending NYU, studying mechanical engineering.

“Once I got out of active duty I wanted to continue my service and continue my education, so I joined the Reserves and it’s been the best thing I’ve done,” said Torres. “I’ve always wanted to serve. I always had a dream to be in uniform. I feel like it just made the younger version of myself proud to join the army.”

Highlights of the celebration included New York State Senator Steve Rhoads’ announcement that the hospital’s director of security, Steve Biscotti, retired T United States Navy Hospital Corpsman will be inducted into the New York State Veterans Hall of Fame.

Biscotti served in the U.S Navy from 1979 to 1985.

“It’s a great honor,” said Biscotti. “ I get tremendous support from the hospital. It’s all about giving back to the community. Giving back to the veteran is and I loved doing it. Here at Mount Sinai, we’re doing something every day for Veterans.”

Mount Sinai South Nassau currently employs 48 Veterans of the U.S. Armed Forces. This ceremony is held annually

by Mount Sinai South Nassau to honor and celebrate Veterans.

“I’ve got to credit Mount Sinai for taking the time to recognize their veterans and placing them front and center in everything that they do,” Rhoads said. “I’m proud to be honoring Steve Biscotti with the induction into the State Veterans Hall of Fame. He is a true example of what it means to be a veteran not only in his service during his time in the military, but in his veteran service after that time, making sure that other veterans are taken care of, making sure that our communities are taken care of and that’s really what it’s all about.”

“It’s incredible what they do at Mount Sinai and I’m just glad to be able to be a part of it,” said District 12 Legislator James Kennedy. “I’m going to be

Siegel is Long Beach Businessperson of Year Was honored as part of the Nassau Council of Chambers of Commerce breakfast STAFF REPORT What does it take to be a Businessperson of the Year? It’s putting aside their personal time to serve, according to Frank Camarano Jr., president of the Nassau Council of Chambers of Commerce.

And it’s always finding a way to make each and every community in Nassau County a better place to work and live — and all 38 people and organizations who earned that honor this year have done exactly that.

Like Dr. Joshua Siegel, whose mission is to touch lives through his jOShuA SiEgEl healing hands, spreading passion to live a life filled with love and light.

Siegel was honored by the Long Beach Chamber of Commerce, and is a chiropractor with Café of Life.

He was called into the profession at a young age, according to the Nassau Council of Chambers, when his life was radically transformed through the power of an adjustment. As a child, Siegel suffered from severe allergies and asthma.

Tim Baker/Herald

Dr. Joshua Siegel was not only honored by the Long Beach Chamber of Commerce, but was one of more than 40 people and businesses celebrated by the Nassau Council of Chambers of Commerce during its annual breakfast at Crest Hollow Country Club.

Other winners include Paul and Roberta Danziger (Bellmore), Anthony Bott (East Meadow), Dana McDowell (Elmont), Jaime Parra (Franklin Square), Jerry Farrell (Glen Cove), Sally Barrera (Hempstead), Atlantic Hardware (Freeport), and William Powell (Levittown).

After it became apparent that allergy shots would not be enough to improve his health, he turned to the care of a chiropractor.

Siegel immediately saw improvements, and over a short period of time, all of his previous symptoms and conditions vanished. It was then he, too, wanted to help heal people through the natural chiropractic way.

Siegel received his degree from Life

University, and has been in practice since 2004. He is also one of just six doctors on Long Island certified by the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association, which allows him to cover all aspects of family and well-being from conception to pregnancy, and the care of infants and children.

Also among the honorees is Alvin Hartley, from the Long Island African American Chamber of Commerce, who

brings more than 25 years of strategic planning to the table, helping a number of organizations develop customer service and leadership and sales training, as well as marketing plans, budgets, strategy, concepts and training.

Hartley runs the chamber’s Business Solutions Center, all while handling counseling reporting as part of the federal Small Business Administration’s Community Navigator Pilot Program.

The Joni Project

The Joni Project visits the Landmark stage, celebrating Joni Mitchell’s 80th birthday. The musically sophisticated band is fronted by remarkable multi-instrumentalist and singer Katie Pearlman, who impressively plays Joni’s songs in their original open guitar tunings. It also includes jazz and jam band mainstays Dave Berg (guitar), Dan Ehrlich (bass), Alan Lerner (drums), Mark Mancini (keyboards), Steve Finklestein (percussion), Premik Russell Tubbs (saxophone and flute) and Victoria Faiella (backing vocals). Together, they bring fresh interpretation to Joni’s legendary tunes from their many eras and genres — particularly from the time of her stunning and dynamic collaboration with Jaco Pastorius, Pat Metheny and Michael Brecker.

From the deep folk roots of her musical beginnings, Perlman faithfully performs in true Joni style. Her tunings remain as fresh today as they were when first played.

Melissa Errico Sings Sondheim

Long Island’s own Melissa Errico brings her Broadway pizzazz to the Adelphi University Performing Arts Center stage, Sunday, Nov. 12, at 3 p.m., in Sondheim Sublime. The actress-vocalist celebrates the brilliance of her mentor, the late Stephen Sondheim. Come to the cabaret matinee and hear why Broadway World says that “the way Melissa Errico immerses herself in every moment, the technical brilliance of her vocal abilities, and the sheer star power that the lady exudes, makes her a take-no-prisoners performer, offering a leaveit-all-on-the-floor show,” among her many accolades.

From “Send in the Clowns” to “No One Is Alone,” Errico sings the Sondheim masterpieces — from “West Side Story,” “Gypsy,” “Into The Woods,” to, of course, “Sweeney Todd” — delivering her insightful and witty vision of Broadway’s greatest modern songwriter. She also provides a swinging look at Sondheim’s influences from Cole Porter to Rodgers & Hammerstein, as well as her own personal relationship with the master, joined by a jazz trio led by legendary music director Billy Stritch. First known for her starring roles on Broadway, including “My Fair Lady,” “High Society,” “Les Miserables,” and more, she’s also acclaimed as a concert singer. Errico’s album, “Sondheim Sublime” was called by The Wall Street Journal as “The best all-Sondheim album ever recorded.” Her history with Sondheim began when he selected her to star as Dot in “Sunday In The Park With George” at The Kennedy Center, and she has since co-starred as “Clara” in Passion at Classic Stage Company, and in the New York City Center Encores! production of the Sondheim/Richard Rodgers musical “Do I Hear A Waltz?” She’ll also sing selections from her highly-anticipated new album “Sondheim In The City” (Spring 2024), a playful and swinging popinflected follow up to her lyrical, romantic first recording of his music. Tickets start at $45. Adelphi University, Westermann Stage, 1 South Ave., Garden City. (516) 877-4000 or Adelphi.edu/pac.

HOME Of tHE WEEK

• To place an ad call 516-569-4000 press 5

What to look for when you buy a house, Part 2 Q. My kids are looking for a house, and I’ve been going with them. It’s hard to swallow how expensive real estate has gotten since my wife and I bought our first, and last, home 36 years ago with a 14.9 percent interest rate. Could you give some tips on what to look for, beyond basics, because every home we look at needs some kind of work, and I wonder if any of it can be done without a permit (which involves more time and money, and increased taxes), and with the fewest problems later on.

West Hempstead

Presidential Section

L

ocation! Location!

Location! This cozy cape style home is located on a quiet residential street in West Hempstead's desirable presidential section and school district 27. It is conveniently, located near all. This home boasts 4 bedrooms, with the master bedroom located on the first or second floor. You will also enjoy 2 full baths, a nice living room with fireplace, dining room, kitchen, full basement, one car garage with great storage and more. It is conveniently located near all and only $599,000. Call David to make an appointment to view this lovely home.

A. Most things done to improve a property, even air conditioning, sheds and driveways (depending on jurisdiction) require review and approval with architectural plans, applications and permits. People think they’re saving money, or enjoy the feeling of getting away with something, by avoiding getting permission. Homeowners onte eeper often learn the hard way that someday, somebody is going to pay the increased price.

Add to that the fact that either the contractor had no idea, or no intention, of building to regulations, or the homeowner just assumed the person they hired knew what the laws were. After all, why would someone who skirts the approval process be expected to follow any other rules? Construction, as I’ve often said, is like the Wild West. The “sheriffs” never summon, fine or prosecute the perpetrators of the time-consuming act of building — only the assuming homeowner who either had it built or passed it on to an unsuspecting buyer.

“Safety first,” you’ll always hear, but the way the system is set up, it’s rigged against the consumer.

They’ll all disagree with me and hate that I write this, but the people you hired with the intention of making sure the sale goes smoothly, that you get the house, are not, in every instance, the ones who question the legitimacy of the construction — whether it has permits, was built right or will last.

If you find one who does, you’ve found a gem, but many times, whistleblowers, instead, appear to be “too picky” when in fact they are helping you.

I love speaking with any attorney, real estate agent or inspector about how to help you out and get you through the problem they brought to your attention. But many say nothing. They just don’t have the background or, frankly, in some cases, the interest in whether the home you’re choosing is clear of construction defects unrelated to their specific job, so you may only find out about it much later. The real estate agent, the attorneys, the title company, the bank inspector, the appraiser and the home inspector may even have clauses in their agreements exempting them from things they might have mentioned.

In many cases, where I discover things years later, when I’m called to review the papers and property, I have the task of answering the question, “Why didn’t anybody tell me this?” More to come …

T

he war in the Middle East has become more than a conflict between Israel and Hamas. And it is more than a regional confrontation of Israel vs. Iran, which utilizes Hamas and Hezbollah as proxy fighters and front men in its campaign to destroy Israel and its people.

In many ways, the war has become a struggle for Western civilization and for the survival of our values. The Oct. 7 assault on Israel

by Hamas constituted the nadir of human degradation. Man’s inhupETER manity to man.

Rapes, mutilaKinG tions, murders and beheadings even of children should have caused all people to call for Hamas to be consigned to humanity’s ash heap.

Instead we see hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of people taking to the streets around the world to denounce Israel. More than just pro-Palestinian, many shouting “From the river to the sea!” are pro-Hamas and anti-Israel. And all too many are antisemitic, displaying Nazi swastikas.

Particularly disturbing are the large numbers of Americans taking part in these demonstrations. College students betray a shocking lack of knowledge of history, and too many university heads

T

tolerate antisemitism on their campuses, while Jewish students feel threatened and unsafe. The media increasingly show a moral equivalence between Israel and its murderous enemies, Iran, Hamas and Hezbollah. The most disgraceful episode was a New York Times false front-page story accusing Israel of bombing a Gaza hospital based on reports from Hamas.

A number of LGBTQ+ organizations, all of which would be violently oppressed if not murdered

by Hamas, are siding against Israel. Most bizarrely, so too are some Jewish groups.

Viewing, listening to and reading this incessant anti-Israel vitriol, which is raging in America less than five weeks after the worst massacre of Jews since the Holocaust, moved me to compare how America reacted to World War II, when our survival was threatened, with how so many Americans want Israel to react today.

Before the attack on Pearl Harbor, we were decidedly isolationist. Hero aviator Charles Lindbergh was foremost in the pro-isolationist America First movement. While there was an element of Nazi support, most isolationists genuinely believed that Europe’s wars were for Europe and Asia’s wars for Asia.

None of this involved the United States.

As for Nazi aggression and Hitler’s persecution of Jews, European countries

T

had been attacking one another throughout history, and one group or another was always being persecuted.

Most significant, the Atlantic and Pacific oceans were natural barriers against any foreign war impacting the United States. President Franklin D. Roosevelt was re-elected to his third term in 1940, and pledged not to have “American boys fighting in foreign wars.”

Then came Pearl Harbor, and our isolation ended overnight. Young men rushed to enlist in the military. Rather than being hotbeds of resistance like they are today, colleges and universities strongly supported the war effort: Not only did students enlist, but campuses were used as training centers. Women, immortalized as Rosie the Riveter, worked in factories and defense plants.

No one called for a ceasefire. No one challenged FDR when he ordered the firebombing of Tokyo, not for any military action to show Japan that we would do whatever had to be done to defeat and destroy the Japanese empire. When the tide of war shifted toward America and our allies, no one called for a pause to allow the distribution of food and fuel to the German and Japanese people.

When Dresden and other German cities were bombed, reporters were not in the streets, asking German mothers or senior citizens how they felt about it.

Hitler and Hideki Tojo, the prime minis-

he Western world is trying to restrict Israel’s ability to preserve its very survival.

ter of Japan, were not given equal time with Roosevelt and British Prime Minister Winston Churchill. When offers to negotiate were suggested by Germany, they were rebuffed by FDR, who demanded unconditional surrender.

And after Germany and Japan were defeated, the United States helped build both into flourishing democracies and industrial powers. Most significantly, when America and the world realized the full extent of Hitler’s depravity, and how the Holocaust had almost decimated the entirety of the Jewish people, we declared “Never again!” brought Nazi leaders to justice at Nuremberg and recognized Israel as the Jewish homeland.

Today Israel is under siege, and much of America and the Western world, which fought so valiantly to destroy Nazi Germany and Imperialist Japan, is attempting to restrict Israel’s ability to preserve its very survival, and is enabling — and in some cases supporting — the present-day Nazi axis of Iran, Hamas and Hezbollah. This abdication of moral responsibility and failure of will by Western countries in the face of this mortal, existential threat to Israel threatens not just Israel’s survival as a nation, but our survival as a civilization.

We must not allow “Never again!” to be supplanted by “From the river to the sea!” We must stand with Israel.

A war overseas, yet close to home

he war in Israel is one that I have clear opinions about, and one that has affected my personal life. Yet at this time, when expressing thoughts is more important than ever, I find doing so more difficult than ever.

I’ve never had to fear for my safety when it comes to choosing a side, supporting it, and offering a personal perspective in response to global events. Now, however, I can’t help but think cautiously about the ideas I put forward.

I’ve written about current events before, but never could I have iLAnA that I GREEnBERG conceived would need to provide a teenager’s perspective on the war that’s occurring in my family’s backyard.

There is no use hiding it, so I will state outright: I am an American Jew. My father and my mother’s father are Israe-

li, and I have hundreds of relatives in the tiny country that I call my “homeland” in the Middle East. Now, because of my identity, I am greeted by Nassau County police officers from the 6th Precinct when I walk into my Jewish school each morning. My hearingimpaired grandmother, who lives in a peaceful village outside Jerusalem, can discern the roar of sirens and the thump of missiles landing in her neighborhood. My teachers have children who may never return home.

My people cannot continue to suffer brutally at the hands of terrorists. For my safety, I have been taught to think twice before making that statement.

In my tight-knit New York Jewish community, the unfortunate reality is that everyone knows somebody who has been killed, kidnapped, traumatized, or tortured by Hamas terrorists.

My daily classes are shadowed by the hollow faces of my classmates, distracted

W

by the anxiety of knowing that their families are running to shelters. The television lulls me to sleep with talk of bombings and invasions. I am scared.

I am scared of the horrors that are occurring, with no end in sight, and of the possibility that the terror can travel too close to my own home — in this country that my ancestors have relied on as a haven from persecution for generations.

And yet, while my family, friends and peers suffer, I know that the Gazans cannot continue to suffer, either. My stomach churns at the graphic images, the tragic stories of refugees fleeing their homes, which have been reduced to rubble, and civilians crying for their families. I pray that Palestinians can live happily and safely — and that safety comes alongside, not at the cost of, the safety of Israel.

I am pained by the loss of innocent lives, and mourn the loss of our friends. I

hen I walk into my Jewish school each morning, I’m greeted by NCPD officers.

fear for the lives of Israelis, and fear for the lives of Gazan civilians. I want Israel to exist peacefully, and I want Gaza to be more than a city of rubble. Must these all be mutually exclusive?

I want nothing more than peace, yet many are convinced that a brutal war is the only solution.

I wish that I could offer a resolution to these conflicting emotions, but in this war, there may not be one. Death does not pick sides. Need I explain that a bullet will kill an Israeli and it will kill a Palestinian, without considering in which country the lifeless flesh originated?

Regardless of the sides taken in this brutal conflict, I hope that the one thing we can all agree on is the sanctity of human life — though not everyone does.

Maybe one day, that will be enough to unite us in a common desire for peace.

For now, I need not continue to express my thoughts on this tragedy. The thousands of voiceless bodies speak loudly enough.

ur world is seemingly dominated by the twists and turns of the nation’s largest corporations, where billions of dollars are constantly at play, and millions of jobs on the table.

Because of that, it’s easy to overlook the businesses that aren’t trading on the New York Stock Exchange, or that may not have a lot to spend on marketing and branding — where the owner knows every employee, and every employee knows her.

These are our small businesses — our mom-and-pop businesses. And while they might not be the Apples or the Disneys of the world, they remain vital to our communities, and our very lives.

There are 90,000 businesses on Long Island, according to Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman, and a vast majority of them employ fewer than 50 people. Many might not be household names beyond their immediate neighborhoods, but where they are known, they are important.

Yet with each passing year, our society pulls further away from the small businesses that we so cherish and pushes further into the realm of the megacorporations. Not that there isn’t a place for the conglomerates — it’s just best that they don’t devour too much of our economic base.

Small businesses account for 44 percent of U.S. economic activity, according

to a report from the federal Small Business Administration just ahead of the coronavirus pandemic, and their share of the nation’s gross domestic progress is slowly, but surely, shrinking. Between 1998 and 2014, the small business share of GDP dropped from 48 percent to 43.5.

Small business GDP itself is growing — but just under 1.5 percent a year, as compared to the 2.5 percent of larger businesses.

A lot of that shifting began after the 2008 recession, and continued as big-box stores grew dramatically, as did online retailers like Amazon. That’s a primary reason why organizations like the Nassau Council of Chambers of Commerce — which represents more than 50 chambers of commerce in the county, and more than 10,000 businesses — are so keen to promote “Shop Local.”

Small businesses need us, and we need them. Small businesses provide more jobs and more opportunities to people in their communities, corporate recruiter Martin Rowinski wrote in Forbes magazine last year.

“Successful small businesses put money back into their local community through paychecks and taxes, which can support the creation of new small businesses, and improve local public services,” Rowinski wrote. “No matter how small it starts — one, two, five, 10 employees — within that town, the city or the county, your small business cre-

ates new economies where once there was nothing.”

And that should be the definitive conclusion to this discussion, but sadly, it’s not. While it’s nearly impossible to find anyone who would consciously choose a large company over a hometown business, it still happens all the time. Many times, it’s because we simply don’t think about the impact of ordering something from Amazon, or ordering a pizza from a chain rather than a local pizzeria.

More often than not, it comes down to cost — more often than not, it’s cheaper to head to Home Depot than to a local hardware store. Or to the 7-Eleven instead of the family-owned bodega on the corner. There is a place for the Home Depots and the 7-Elevens in our communities — but just not at the cost of local business. And it’s important to keep that in mind when we choose where we spend our money.

One of the biggest spending periods of the year is coming up after Thanksgiving, and there will be so many businesses chasing after us, hoping to receive the dollars we’re looking to spend.

But let’s make every effort we can to keep those dollar right here in our communities. “Shop Local” isn’t just a slogan — it’s key to keeping our communities thriving. And it ensures that our small businesses will never be overlooked.

Letters Does Congressman D’Esposito want to solve the border crisis?

To the Editor: U.S. Rep. Anthony D’Esposito’s partisan column last week, “The Biden border crisis comes home to New York,” blaming President Biden, Gov. Kathy Hochul and New York City Mayor Eric Adams for the influx of migrants at our border, exemplifies the dysfunction of the House of Representatives. It’s up to Congress to work across the aisle and introduce laws that have a chance of passing. But the Republicans don’t really want sensible immigration laws, because they want to scare people into voting for them.

Any fool can see that D’Esposito is intentionally introducing legislation that he knows will never be enacted just so he can say, “See, the Republicans are trying to keep you safe, while the Democrats want an open border.” Keep an eye out for a tax-paid mailer that will mention yet another bill that will never become law.

D’Esposito conveniently failed to mention that he refused to support Biden’s comprehensive aid plan, which would not only give $14.3 billion in aid to Israel, but also direct $14 billion to boost the number of border agents, increase staffing for processing asylum cases and install new machines at the border that detect fentanyl. D’Esposito also failed to mention that 93 percent

of fentanyl coming over our border is smuggled by U.S. citizens coming through legal entries. So if D’Esposito wants to find real solutions to the fentanyl epidemic, why wouldn’t he vote to pass Biden’s aid package, which would do just that?

D’Esposito’s solution to New York

City’s rising costs of sheltering migrants is to defund the effort. Please tell me how that makes sense. One of the major reasons why our restaurants closed or cut hours is because they are unable to find staff. We are at record low unemployment.

s a result of the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act, signed into law in 2019, New York committed to ambitious targets to achieve net zero emissions by 2050 in all sectors of the economy. In pursuit of that goal, Equinor was awarded contracts to build Empire Wind I and II, which were slated to be constructed off the southern coast of Nassau County, where my Senate district is located.

The proposal included a path for high-powered transmission patriCia cables through CanZoneri-FitZpatriCk coastal beaches and a densely populated section of Long Beach.

Throughout the process, Equinor failed to adequately address the community’s concerns about the impact on marine life and the potential health risks associated with electromagnetic field emissions from the cables.

Imposing arbitrary benchmarks laid out by the act does not allow these goals to be met, but instead creates chaos like we recently saw in Long Beach. Compa-

nies like Equinor feel emboldened to come into our communities and display an abysmal lack of transparency and communication in the face of residents’ concerns. Rather than engaging in meaningful dialogue and addressing the concerns of local communities, they resort to underhanded tactics to further their agenda.

Equinor’s underhanded tactics were on blatant display in the passing of Senate bill S6218A, which included language that would have advanced Equinor’s plan to run highvoltage transmission cables through the heart of Long Beach. The language was taken from a bill sponsored

by Assemblyman Ari Brown and me, at the request of the Long Beach City Council. With rare exceptions, these types of bills are carried by local representatives to ensure they are not advanced without support from the impacted community.

In the face of the lack of transparency from Equinor and public outcry, I did not allow this bill to advance. During the last days of the legislative session, a senator from Brooklyn added that language to a separate bill and passed it through the

t

Senate over my objections. However, after the hard-fought efforts of our residents, Brown, U.S. Rep. Anthony D’Esposito and I, Gov. Kathy Hochul vetoed this bill, citing the public outcry over the project. Her veto prevents the beach parkland in Long Beach from being used for the proposed transmission cable route through the beach and city.

Just prior to the veto, the state Public Service Commission unanimously denied Equinor’s request for an additional $12 billion in subsidies for renewableenergy projects. You would think the story is over at this point, but there are more chapters unfolding every day.

Hochul recently unveiled the 10 Point Renewable Energy Action Plan, set to be executed by the state Energy Research and Development Authority. This initiative aims to elevate New York’s sustainable energy production, including offshore wind projects. My concern with this plan isn’t the ambition itself, but rather the details of its implementation, which remain unclear as of this moment, such as unrealistic targets for offshore wind energy.

he transition to cleaner energy must not come at the expense of our communities.

Letters lower than any other industrialized nation, prices at the grocery stores will still be high as long as our farmers are unable to find workers.

But of course, D’Esposito fails to mention that Hochul passed a bill that will allow migrants to work in New York after 30 days instead of a 180-day wait. Her program matches migrants with employers, filling 1,300 jobs on Long Island alone. This will get migrants out of shelters, giving them the ability to provide for their families while they seek asylum.

Real solutions to real problems.

What D’Esposito should be doing is initiating a similar program on the federal level.

Other countries do just that. But no, because then he won’t be able to scare his voters into thinking that criminal migrants are traveling 2,000 miles from the border to Merrick just so they can steal deodorant from CVS. CLAUDIA BORECKY President, Bellmore Merrick Democratic Club Merrick

Caregivers need more support from Albany To the Editor: November is National Family Caregivers Month. In New York, 546,000 family caregivers are providing care worth over $19 billion to their loved ones with dementia. Though these caregivers create significant savings for the state, they are not getting enough support in return. The funding for New York’s Alzheimer’s Disease Community Assistance Program,

Additionally, if we allow foreign companies to build in our waters, we may have no guarantees that the jobs related to these projects will go to New Yorkers, let alone to Nassau County residents. It is imperative that we employ a collaborative style of policy development that considers local needs, local labor, and the preservation of local character, while also considering community input.

I certainly favor our state’s endeavors in advancing toward a cleaner, more robust energy future. However, while we all recognize the importance of transitioning to cleaner energy sources, it’s crucial that such plans do not come at the expense of our communities or ratepayers, and that the companies involved in these projects are willing to engage the stakeholder communities meaningfully. It is also imperative that we explore other clean energy sources, such as green hydrogen, so that we aren’t putting all our eggs in one basket.

I don’t know where this story will end, but I remain committed to safeguarding our communities and protecting our residents from governmental overreach. I will continue to uphold transparency in decision-making processes to ensure that local voices are always heard.

or AlzCAP, which offers care consultations, support groups, educational programs and other services, has been stagnant for years, while the number of caregivers who need these services has continued to grow, especially since 2020.

I have seen the care-giving struggle firsthand for five years. My grandma has Alzheimer’s, and my mother is her caregiver. My mother must balance caring for my grandmother while doing the same for my autistic brother.

And she does this while trying to deal with the other demands of her life. She’s not alone — there are many of these “sandwich caregivers” with similar stories. It is imperative that New York support them, not only because it will mitigate their financial, emotional and physical struggles, but also because it will be less of a financial burden for the state than nursing home care.

Taking care of someone with Alzheimer’s is extremely expensive. One study found that 47 percent of family caregivers have cut back on their food, transportation and health care expenses to pay for a loved one’s care. Also, many caregivers struggle with mental health issues, such as depression, and often don’t have the financial resources to take care of their own physical health.

New York can do better in supporting people who take on this vital role. Please join me in calling on our state senators and Assembly members to increase funding for AlzCAP. HELENA MILLER Volunteer Advocate, Alzheimer’s Association Oyster Bay
