Incumbents run unopposed for Lawrence board

NASSAU HERALD — April 28, 2022

Voting on school budget, trustees and propositions is May 17

By JEFFREY BESSEN jbessen@liherald.com

For the first time since 2012, the incumbents running for re-election to retain their seats on the Lawrence School District’s Board of Education are unopposed for the three-year terms.

Michael Hatten, 77, is running for his fourth consecutive term. He previously served as a trustee from 2006 to 2009. A professional for-profit educator who owns the Far Rockaway-based Global Business Institute and the New York Automotive and Diesel Institute, a for profit college, Hatten has 52 years of post-secondary educational experience.

He said when first elected to the Lawrence board he dove into learning the world of secondary education and helped to ensure that the district skirted reporting issues with the state.

“I understand education on multiple levels and my focus is most clear as we let the professionals do their job to create terrific educational institutions,” he said, referring to the district’s administrators and teachers and its four schools.

Hatten, a Cedarhurst resident, points to the district using its funds to renovate and upgrade the school buildings as one of the board’s top accomplishments in the past three years. Along with the previous overhauls to the buildings, the district is asking residents to approve a building capital reserve for $5 million that is for the renovations at the high school, middle school and primary school, which includes air conditioning, classroom renovation and districtwide technology, and security upgrades.

“This board of trustees is positioning

“If you keep the students in mind you never go wrong.”

Tova Plaut, 52, is running for her fourth term. The Cedarhurst resident is the director of a private nursery school in Commack and noted “We have much to be proud of and a lot more work to do,” Plaut said, adding that she has been an educator for three decades. “I am running again because I am committed to ensuring that every child in our district continues to receive a high quality education, to build upon our successes and continue to improve outcomes for students.”

She points to the board’s success in managing the budgets and improving the

school buildings and playing fields without raising taxes or cutting programs.

“Our board oversaw the implementation of a food distribution program for over 14,000 children each week during the pandemic and partnered with community leaders to ensure that children continued to receive the services they needed,” Plaut said.

Dr. David Sussman, 72, a urologist grew up in the district, lives in Lawrence and is seeking his 11th term. “The same principles, the same reason I got on the board, to take care of the whole population of the district and have the education in the schools as high as we can,” he said, in explaining why he wants to retain his board seat. “The school board does whatever it needs to do for the entire school

district, private schools and public schools. We are still committed and really pleased with our administrators and do what’s best for everybody.”

Sussman also highlighted the continued effort to modernize the school buildings, the food program at the height of Covid and the dedication from administrators such as Superintendent Ann Pedersen and building principals.

Voting on the budget, trustees and propositions takes place May 17 from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m., at the Number Two School, 1 Donahue Ave., Inwood; Lawrence Middle School, 195 Broadway, Lawrence; Lawrence High School, 2 Reilly Road, Cedarhurst; and Atlantic Beach Village hall, 65 The Plaza, Atlantic Beach.,

HWPL budget has proposed $18,000 increase

By LISa MaRGaRIa lmargaria@liherald.com

The Hewlett Woodmere Public Library has proposed a budget increase and has an open trustee seat on its board — both the budget vote and the election are on May 17.

For 2022-2023, the library is looking at a nearly $18,000 uptick from last year's budget, bringing the proposed total fiscal plan up to $6,611,229.

Though it may sound like a lot, the increase is very minimal, and is “a fraction of a percentage increase,” Library Director William Ferro said.

“We're aware [of the increase] — we're trying to keep costs down, like everywhere else, due to pandemic pricing and everything else,” Ferro said. “We’ve also noticed everything is costing more, so I did my best to keep the budget as low as possible while still being able to provide the same service that we provided to the community.”

While the Hewlett-Woodmere School District’s Board of Education has five candidates running for two seats, the library has one candidate, incumbent Shari Braverman, seeking re-election. This is a fiveyear term beginning July 1, 2022 and expiring on June 30, 2027.

Braverman, who grew up in the community, joined the parent advisory committee in 2006 and has been a

member of the board of trustees since 2007. She served as treasurer from 2009 to 2010, vice president of the board from 2010 to 2016 and became president in 2016. “The library has always been a very important part of my life,” Braverman wrote.

Braverman is running because, “I hope to continue and to build upon the library’s tradition of excellence,” she wrote in an email, “by offering our community access to books, information, cultural events and services (like museum passes) as well as entertainment, while keeping the tax levy well below the allowable tax cap.”

Braverman hopes to continue the work she has started with the board, such as landscaping, remodeling, and other improvements discussed by the long range planning committee as well as revisiting the feasibility of adding solar panels.

The library’s current board includes Braverman, who is serving as president, Vice President Ayanna Layne, treasurer Ari Nakkab, and Trustee Ellen Kaknine.

Voting on the Hewlett-Woodmere Public Library budget and trustee vote takes place alongside the Hewlett-Woodmere School District budget, trustee and proposition vote election is on May 17 from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m., at the Woodmere Education Center, 1 Johnson Place, in Woodmere.

Congressional candidates talk saving the Earth

April 28, 2022 — NASSAU HERALD

By KARINA KOVAC kkovac@liherald.com

Can you sum up all your environmental positions into two-minute sound bites?

That’s what the four Democratic candidates seeking to replace U.S. Rep. Kathleen Rice were asked to do last week, taking the stage at Hofstra University’s Breslin Hall to talk about the planet just in time for Earth Day. Malverne village mayor Keith Corbett spent his time on what he referred to as big projects like tapping into a large untouched aquifer under Long Island, and focusing on offshore wind farms.

“We need to educate and train the next generation of workers,” Corbett told Julie Tighe, president of the New York League of Conservation Voters, who moderated the event.

Claiming that shore strengthening would save money in the long run, it would still “cost $800 to $900 million to build that infrastructure, “ Corbett said “It’s worth building that infrastructure protecting the rest of the property when it’s going to be $800 billion if a Superstorm Sandy were to come through again.”

Joining Corbett on the stage were Carrié Solages, Laura Gillen and Kevin Shakil-Mendez.

When it comes to the Long Island State Park system, Corbett says “there is already money set aside in the Department of Transportation budget” for changes like

DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATES RUNNING for the congressional seat currently held by Kathleen Rice — Keith Corbett, Laura Gillen, Kevin Shakil-Mendez and Carrie Solages — talk with Julie Tighe, president of the New York League of Conservation Voters, second from left. electric buses, trains and charging stations — all of which could offer a greener solution.

Solages, the county legislator who represents the greater Elmont and Valley Stream areas, wants to attack the waste crisis, bringing it to a “sustainable zero” by 2030. He’d accomplish it by offering incentives to companies big and small to invest in limited waste, recycling and sustainable practices.

“The federal government cannot require our state government to do anything,” Solages said, “but one thing the fed-

VERONIK A ADLERSTEIN, LCSW Psychotherapist

eral government can do is provide incentives for our state government and village governments to get stuff done. We know local governments will take advantage (to) limit waste, promote more compost programs, (and) more usage of recyclables.”

Gillen told the group environmental issues have been a “priority for her administration” when she was a Town of Hempstead supervisor. Speaking heavily on infrastructure, Gillen’s plan is to move away from fossil fuels by strengthening the electrical grid. She also wants to shift from a dependency on cars more walkable com-

munities.

But no one running for this congressional seat should be all talk, Gillen said.

“If you’re going to set up a regulatory system where you’re going to monitor air quality- and monitor water quality and make sure that the standards are applied in all communities, there has to be an enforcement mechanism,” she said.

Shakil-Mendez, a 29-year-old political newcomer from Westbury, said it was last year’s Jamaica Ash & Rubbish Removal Co., fire in his town that spurred him to run for Congress. He went door-to-door handing out KN95 masks after the sixalarm fire, to help protect his neighbors from the smoke and fumes from the smoldering debris. ”When I went on-site, I could still smell the smoke and the fumes going into my lungs,” he said. “When you talk environmental justice, nothing was done for this community.”

Shakil-Mendez stayed away from many other specifics, instead saying he would consult scientists and experts to help create bills. He also wants to look closely at what Europe is doing when it comes to environmentalism, and duplicate that on Long Island — like placing small wind turbines on the sides of main roads, harnessing energy from traffic as it passes by.

The winner of this primary is expected to face Town of Hempstead councilman and Republican Anthony D’Esposito in November.

Because the Earth deserves a good cleanup jbessen@liherald.com

The image of a Native American shedding a tear after trash was thrown from a car on a highway was of the most enduring images of a 1970s Keep America Beautiful television commercial to increase awareness of pollution.

If one was at the Sunday volunteer clean up by Hook Creek near Rosedale Road and Park Lane in North Woodmere it appears that despite Earth Day – April 22 – existing for the past 52 years, the commercial’s message has been lost.

The 14 “cleaners” who picked up trash found assorted debris as small as food condiment wrappers to a rusting boat motor lodged at the bottom of the waterway. The group filled 45 good-sized trash bags.

“I started when my daughter was at Ogden Elementary [School] for her class to experience community service,” said North Woodmere resident Bob Feldman, saying that it was either 2005 or 2006. “You try to see if you can make a difference.”

New fencing was recently installed by Nassau County and there are small rectangular signs attached to the fencing that read “Nassau County NO DUMPING,” to no avail as a hearty amount of debris litters the waterway land from children’s toy balls to a patio umbrella.

County Legislator Carriè Solages who represents the area joined the cleanup for

a brief time and filled a few bags and even found a bottle of prescription drugs among the trash he collected. He is concerned that all the debris finds its way into the creek which eventually flows into Jamaica Bay. “We addressed this with the county, spoke to DPW (Department of Public Works) and got the new fencing,” said Solages, one of five Democratic candidates vying to fill Kathleen Rice’s seat.

The others are County Legislator Siela Bynoe, Malverne Mayor Keith Corbett, former Town of Hempstead Supervisor Laura Gillen and Westbury resident Kevin Shakil-Mendez.

Mikayla Kotlyar, 14, accompanied her father, Gary, who along with fellow North Woodmere residents Konstanin Grinberg and his daughters Eliana, 9, and Olivia, 6, took part in the cleanup. “It helps the community and saves the environment,” Mikayla said as she picked up trash and placed it in a trash bag. “My dad loves doing this stuff and I do enjoy being out here.”

Leading the cleanup for so long and seeing so much debris year after year, Feldman was asked if he feels as if he’s tilting at windmills. “I’d rather be out here tilting at windmills than let the movie go by and never make a change,” he said, as he placed another piece of garbage in the trash bag.

“It was my first win as a varsity head coach and I couldn’t be prouder of the kids,” Hewlett coach Dale Pescitelli said.

“Calhoun is ranked pretty high in Class B and we knew we had to play close to flawless lacrosse. I thought our zone defense gave them some problems.”

Junior Trevor Auerbach added two goals in the victory which also yielded some bad news. Reznikov, during a late clearing attempt, suffered a broken hand and remains out indefinitely. Freshman backup Daniel Lankri has filled in admirably, Pescitelli said.

“He took a legal whack on the hand and even though it wasn’t the worst-case scenario with the type of fracture he has, it’s up in the air if he’s going to return,” the coach said of Reznikov, a returning starter.

“Not having his leadership alone is a huge loss.”

Lankri won four of his first five varsity appearances, including a wild comeback 9-8 victory over North Shore on April 9 that saw him make nine saves — a few on the doorstep, Pescitelli said.

With an inexperience netminder, the play of the defense, led by lone returning starter senior Carmelo Curra, converted midfielder senior Ryan Player, and juniors Matteo Preziosi and Ian Fleurant, is that much more important, Pescitelli said.

“Those guys are doing a tremendous job in the back,” Pescitelli said.

The Bulldogs lost all 13 games last spring following the cancellation of the 2020 campaign due to the pandemic. They entered this season seeded 14th out of 22 Nassau Class C schools and have turned heads so far with an overall record of 5-3, including 4-1 against conference rivals.

JuNior rYaN goodMaN, right, capped Hewlett’s 9-8 come-from-behind win over North Shore with the decisive goal with four seconds left.

“We’re grinding as well as we can,” Pescitelli said. “We’re going into every game thinking we can win. The morale is great and hopefully we can continue to beat the teams ranked below us and maybe steal another one against a team ranked above us.”

Hewlett won a thriller over North Shore, 9-8, on April 9. Junior Ryan Goodman capped an unlikely comeback with his third goal of the game off an assist from Mariasch, his fourth, with four seconds remaining. Mariasch and Auerbach also had hat tricks.

“We were down 7-3 early in the third quarter and that game shows the type of team we have,” Pescitelli said.

Mariasch and senior midfielder Mark Winkler had 46 points apiece last spring and continue to lead the offense. Mariasch has 37 points, including 17 goals, through eight games, and Winkler has 16 goals.

Auerbach and Goodman have 10 goals apiece.

In addition to North Shore, the Bulldogs have conference wins over Malverne/East Rockaway, Friends Academy and West Hempstead.

Hochul touts budget fixing potholes, colleges

Jake Pellegrino/Herald

GOv. KAthy hOchuL speaks at Hempstead’s Kennedy Memorial Park about the budget she and lawmakers finally finished in Albany. Money is earmarked not only for crumbling state roads, but to give a break at the gas pump as well. Even if it’s a small one.

“We’re going to turn the corner on mankind’s assault on Mother Nature,” Hochul said. “It has to end, and it’s going to end on our watch. What we did to build back our state is going to be part of our post-pandemic legacy.”

On the education front, $500 million is earmarked for SUNY and CUNY campuses — schools Hochul said transforms families, including her own.

“My parents, at one time, lived in a trailer park, and my dad worked at a steel plant,” the governor said. “What got them out of those circumstances was my dad BAGELBOsshEwLEtt.cOm

Additionally, $50 million will support a partnership between Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory and Stony Brook University to create an artificial intelligence lab.

Part-time students also will be eligible for the state’s Tuition Assistance Program, and Albany will allocate $7 billion to ensure child care is available on all SUNY and CUNY campuses.

Some might say it’s been a bumpy road of late for Kathy Hochul, with some of the ongoing turmoil inside her leadership team. But it was a different kind of bumpy road on the governor’s mind last week when she stopped by Kennedy Memorial Park in Hempstead.

More specifically, pothole-laden roads.

“I’ve been to Long Island many times, and everybody always complains about the potholes,” Hochul said. “Nobody has hit more potholes in the state of New York than I have because I’ve traveled 372,000 miles — not by plane. All by road.”

The potholes on Long Island always give Hochul the biggest welcome, she said, “because they’re enormous.”

That should change with the implementation of her $1 billion “Operation Pave Our Potholes” program, intended to resurface 480 lane miles of state highways, including key sections of the Long Island Expressway, Southern State Parkway and the Meadowbrook State Parkway.

And as motorists wait for local roads to get smoother, Hochul officially declared an easier time on their wallets, too, as Albany joins Nassau and Suffolk counties to suspend the sales tax on gasoline beginning June 1 and continuing on until the end of the year.

“How about those gas prices?” Hochul asked. “My God, we couldn’t have (foreseen) this, but the invasion by Putin into

Ukraine had a ripple effect around the globe and the economy. It’s hard for families just trying to get to their kids’ soccer game or take a family vacation, so we decided we can do a short-term fix.”

The state tax break would remove the 16 cents per gallon levy New York places on gas, joining the nickel per gallon Nassau County suspended on any gas price over $3. A gallon of regular gas on Long Island averaged $4.14 this past weekend, according to AAA, down 17 cents from a month ago.

Still, gas is up 43 percent from last year when a gallon of regular went for just under $2.90.

Hochul also promised improvements for commuters, including the completion of the Long Island Rail Road’s third track of the east side access project leading from Grand Central Terminal, and the launch of the second phase of the $700 million Ronkonkoma Hub project.

“We’re changing infrastructure — it’s not just about roads,” Hochul said. “This is an opportunity to lift people’s spirits and give a sense that our commuters matter. We can do dull dishwater infrastructure, or we can do something that matters and make a statement. And this is that opportunity.”

The state also will commit $500 million for the development of an offshore wind port infrastructure and supply chain, Hochul said, expected to bring in more than $2 billion in economic activity and more than 2,000 green jobs.

Police reported that two men had what was described as a “loud verbal argument” as they stood in the roadway by Rockaway Turnpike and Westminster Road. Then one of the men walked to his 2008 BMW that had dark tinted window, police said, and appeared to be leaving.

When officers approached the car, the man was reaching towards the back and glove apartment area, according to police.

The subsequent investigation uncovered a gun in the glove compartment. Caleek

Early Childhood Center celebrates young children During the first week of April, Lawrence School District’s Early Childhood Center took part in stimulating activities to celebrate learning, students, teachers, families and the community to mark the National Association for the Education of young Children Week of the Young Child, an annual celebration sponsored by the association, which is considered the world’s largest childhood education organization in the world.

Monday of that week focused on music as the students developed their language, literacy and math skills. They also saw a performance of the “Lion King Show” by the middle school’s Drama Club.

“This was truly a special week of activities and lesson plans that brought our youngest learners together to read, talk and play as a community every day,” Early Childhood Center Principal Lisa Tariq said in a news release. “These young children are growing right before our eyes in every way: academically, mentally and physically.”

Tasty Tuesday was dedicated to teaching the children about healthy eating.

Work Together Wednesday highlighted the importance of teamwork and cooperation. The kids fine motor skills were developed on Artsy Thursday. All the kindergarten students received a spring bug magnetic project that they took after it was completed. Students and their families created family collages and

The supportive and oldman accommodating atmosphere of GRAND GETAWAYS also allows you to break free, and embrace family and (old and new) friends. It’s a free zone where you can quietly think or loudly laugh, or use your free time to golf or workout or visit an amusement park or attend a performance or feel free to do nothing but relax and create memories.

Say “free” to so many and you will get so many different responses.

From most Americans you will hear that it’s a free country with free speech and a free press. Others are more specific, as theologians tout free will, and economists laud free trade and the free market.

Some folks are sill looking for a free lunch, while professional athletes seek to be free agents or make that free throw, even as teenagers demand free reign, sculptors admire the free-standing and designers practice free form.

Investors crave the taxfree, photographers and reporters freelance, and dieters (and cardiologists) recommend the fat-free. on We wish we could perform all tasks and cycle hands-free along roads that toll free, and enjoy free verse and free expression as we exercise our free choice.

This year, in particular, most folks just want to be free of masks, free of mandates, free of isolation, free of anxiety, free of testing and free to feel free and be free.

As some of us observe the Passover holiday, the celebration of freedom, we seek and environment that’s stress-free and gives us the freedom to enjoy and appreciate the joy and privilege of being free.

Celebrating diversity at Lawrence To celebrate what Lawrence School District called its “rich diversity” the high school’s National Honor Society hosted the annual Culture Fest at the school earlier this month.

“It is our mission to provide a diverse and inclusive environment for our students,” Jessica McComsey, the society’s adviser said in a news release. “This is just one of many events that unite students, staff and our community as whole.”

Flags representing countries around the world decorated the high school café and the tables were filled with food that included arroz con pollo (rice with chicken, dumplings, egg rolls, empanadas and much more.

Multicultural Week also featured art and music as well as the global cuisine, and performances and presentations from the students’ home countries, who also shared photographs of their globetrotting.

“It was inspiring to see our students, staff and community members come together to celebrate and embrace the richness of that diversity and the many different cultures, ethnicities and heritages we all represent,” Lawrence High Principal Jennifer Lagnado-Papp said in the release.

Wish your loved one would change?

It’s always an issue when you’re more invested in getting somebody else to change than they are.

■ You want your wife to quit smoking.

She’d like to quit but…not yet.

■ You want your husband to be better organized. The mess on his desk doesn’t bother him; he just wants you to stop nagging him all the time.

■ You want your teen to stop eating junk food. She thinks what you want her to eat is tasteless.

■ You want your elderly parent to be more social. He has no interest in mingling with others and claims he’s content to be by himself.

Though wanting others to change may be for their own good, your efforts often get you nowhere. No matter how much you explain your reasoning or how upset you get; others may still not show any serious desire to change.

Clearly, they’re applying a different template to these situations. Smoking is not the problem. Neither is being organized or eating healthy, or socializing.

The problem, in their eyes, is you.

You’re the problem, as you’re making

these things a problem.

So if someone’s behavior is frustrating to you, what do you do? How can you work with your spouse, not the one you wish you had? Or the kid you have, not the kid you thought you’d have? Or the parent you have now, not the parent you used to have?

First, lay aside the misguided notion of our ‘cando’ society — that we can achieve anything we put our mind to. Simply not true. Never was, never will be. The opposite - which is that we’re victims of our genetics, upbringing, peer inda pressure, and more, hence we cannot change is also untrue. The truth is that people do change when they see the need for it and when they become motivated and committed to making the change.

Look back on your own life. Ten years ago, maybe you weren’t ready to make a change you’ve recently made. At a specific point in time, a need for one thing (social acceptance) might trump a

need for something else (studying hard). For a teen, which need do you think typically wins out – the need to fit in with their peers or eat healthy food?

For many adults, which need do you think typically wins out — the need for creature comforts or getting organized?

So what can you do when you’re more heavily invested in somebody else’s change than they are?

consequences of his actions. Don’t mop up the mess he made!

The tipping point for change often occurs after one hears the same message from three different sources. This is not the same as you repeating your message 30 or even 300 times. When one gets feedback from other sources (not cohorts who do your bidding), a message begins to sink in.

At that point, you can suggest resources and offer encouragement.

But until then, as frustrating as it might be, what would be good for you to do is stay calm, be patient, and trust that one day your loved one will see the need for the desired changes. ©2022 Linda Sapadin, Ph.D., psychologist, coach and author, specializes in helping people overcome procrastination and debilitating anxiety and fear.

Meet the H-W board trustee candidates continued from front page PAL and club sports.

Shafran, a Five Towns resident for 33 years, said he is running to give back to his community. Though his four daughters all graduated from the Hebrew Academy of the Five Towns and Rockaways, in Lawrence, Shafran said he has seen his nieces and nephews who attend HewlettWoodmere schools benefit from “the amazing amenities and quality education that the district offers.”

“In light of the upheavals wrought by Covid, changing demographics in the district, and a desire by all residents to maintain our stellar educational standards and ranking, I feel compelled to run for a seat on the District 14 Board of Education,” Shafran wrote on the district’s Facebook group page, adding that one of his main goals is to keep the education system successful while being fiscally responsible.

Fried, a longtime Five Towns resident and a 1993 graduate of Hewlett High School, is running, she said, to help the district continue to succeed with its programs and educational opportunities. Living in Gibson, Woodmere and now Hewlett, Fried said, “has given me a wonderful perspective on the different neighborhoods that make up our district.”

She has been involved in community activities and the PTA for as long as her two children — a daughter, a Hewlett High senior, and a son, a Woodmere Mid-

Sarah Fried

Chani Jeter

dle Schooler — have been in school.

Fried is a member of the task force that will determine whether the district should adopt a nine-period day. She has also sat on hiring and other committees at district schools.

Fried said she planned to use her career experience working at corporate banks and insurance companies to help “make our district function efficiently and fiscally responsibly. In addition,” she said, “I will always have an open ear and mind to any and all stakeholders, with the goal of bridging our community together and working toward continued success of our school district.”

Jeter, a Woodmere resident, has lived in the school district with her husband and four children for nearly a decade. One child is a Hewlett High School sophomore, another is in kindergarten at the Franklin Early Childhood Center, and the other two — a sixth- and second-grader —

attend the Hebrew Academy of the Five Towns and Rockaways.

Her goal if she is elected, Jeter said, is to bring a balanced perspective to the community, keeping in mind the concerns of both public and private school parents.

She also plans to advocate for students with special needs.

Jeter has held leadership roles in the PTA, and was named a Volunteer of the Year by the HAFTR PTA last year. She described herself, in addition to being open-minded, as a problem solver, a strong communicator, a financial manager and a leader.

“As a district, we face great challenges fiscally and academically,” she wrote on the Facebook group page. “My goal is simple: make Hewlett-Woodmere the leading school district in Long Island. I will continually push for excellence; ask the tough questions and deliver transparent answers.”

ella Zalkind

Zalkind, a Hewlett resident since 2016, has two children at Hewlett High School and one at Woodmere Middle School. She is running “at the urging of a few friends and neighbors,” she wrote on the Facebook group page.

Zalkind has served on the boards of the Shorefront Y, a Jewish Community Center in Brooklyn, and two Brooklyn charter school boards — as a member and president of both.

“I am a big proponent of public schools and care very deeply about the community,” Zalkind wrote. “My platform is very simple: to do what is best for the children, the school, the district, and the community. No politics, no gimmicks and no hidden agenda.”

Shafran had not responded to requests for comment before the Herald went to press.

LEGAL NOTICE Notice of Determination and Findings Pursuant To Section 204 of the New York State Eminent Domain Procedure Law In accordance with the Eminent Domain Procedure Law (EDPL), the following is a brief synopsis of the findings and determinations regarding the proposed acquisition of 2025 Park Street a/k/a Section 58, Block 60, Lots 5-9 and 2035 Park Street a/k/a Section 58, Block 60, Lots 1-4 in the Village of Atlantic Beach, State of New York (collectively, the “Subject Properties”) in connection with the expansion of the adjacent recreational facilities to create a community center with lifeguard beach operations and create a community park with open space, seating, and landscaping.

Project Description Expand the existing adjacent recreational facilities to create a community center with lifeguard beach operations and create a community park with open space, seating, and landscaping.

Public Benefits of the Project The Public Use and Benefit of acquiring the Subject Properties is to expand adjacent recreational facilities, create a community center with lifeguard beach operations, and create a community park with open space, seating and landscaping.

Effects of the Proposed Project on the Environment The project is classified as an Unlisted Action in accordance with the State Environmental Quality Review (SEQR) Act, and the Village is the lead agency. The Project is classified as an Unlisted Action because there are no significant environmental impacts and the Subject Properties when acquired will be used for an expansion of recreational facilities in the Village.

Therefore, a Negative Declaration was adopted and issued by the Board of Trustees on January 10, 2022.

Relevant Project Considerations Based on due consideration of the record and the adopted findings, the Incorporated Village of Atlantic Beach has determined that it should exercise its power

of eminent domain to acquire the aforementioned Subject Properties so that the Village may expand adjacent recreational facilities, create a community center with lifeguard beach operations, and create a community park with open space, seating, and landscaping.

Copies of this Determination and Findings are available and will be forwarded without cost, upon written request sent to Emily Siniscalchi, Village Clerk, Inc.

Spotlighting Jews doing great in the sports arena

NASSAU HERALD — April 28, 2022

continued from front page 10 inductees into the association, representing eight sports, sportswriting and sports administration.

“By highlighting Jewish athletes from across the sports world, it hopefully offers a starting point for discussions of stereotypes and prejudice,” said Alan Freedman, who founded the Great Neckbased organization in 2015. “‘Jews in sports’ is thought to be an oxymoron, and in showing the fallacy of that assumption it causes us to question stereotypes that we have about diverse groups.”

Arbitman, 19, whose list of achievements as a scholastic tennis player is long, is expected to attend, while Steinmetz will appear via a video.

“I think this is an incredible honor, and especially with all the craziness, I was so thankful that I got to play my senior season,” Arbitman said, referring to the coronavirus pandemic. “I really loved playing tennis for my school and representing them. It was incredible.”

She is the first female tennis player in Nassau County history to win four consecutive high school county championships. Arbitman also teamed with Nyla Gershfeld to capture county and state doubles title in 2019. Arbitman won the state singles title in 2018.

“First of all, Rachel is very talented and an all-around great leader,” said her coach at Hewlett High, Abby Samlin, adding that Arbitman’s talent was “far above the level of everyone,” yet at the same time she encouraged her teammates and acted as a second coach, Samlin said.

So much so that a special Hewlett High award was created to honor Arbitman, given to an athlete who plays multiple sports. “She is a coach’s dream, Samlin said.

Last July, Steinmetz, 18, was chosen in the third round of the Major League Baseball draft. He played for the Hebrew Academy of the Five Towns and Rockaway High School team, but when his last season of high school ball was canceled because of the pandemic, Steinmetz spent last spring at the Elev8 Academy, a training facility for high-caliber scholastic baseball players in Delray Beach,

Florida.

Since being drafted, the right-handed pitcher has worked on increasing the velocity of his fastball, which has hit 97 mph, and a crackling curve ball. A promotion to Single-A ball could be on the horizon.

“It’s an honor to be recognized with Rachel Arbitman for this award,” Steinmetz wrote in a text. “I appreciate the work the Jewish Sports Heritage Association does to give exposure to Jewish athletes like me who are working hard to chase dreams.” He credited the Diamondbacks with making his transition to professional baseball a seamless one.

Of the nine inductees and other honorees, Ira Berkow, Yuri Foreman, Sada Jacobson, Dr. David Margolis and Renee Richards are expected to attend in. Elliot Steinmetz, Jacobs’s father and the coach of the Yeshiva University men’s basketball team, will attend and accept the award for Jacob.

Margolis is the recipient of the association’s Dr. Bruno Lambert Good Guy in Sports Award. He practices at Children’s Wisconsin hospital. Lindsey Ruderman, a diver at Amherst College, and Daniel Cukierman, who plays tennis at USC, are the Jay Fiedler Outstanding Jewish College Athletes of the Year.

“By giving the high school award to Rachel and Jacob, it shows a couple of

Jewish men and women are doing great things in sports today.”

WE NOW DO ALL KINDS OF MASONRY WORK!

A. There are many items to include in your thought process for finishing your basement.

Mistakes are made, first, by ever assuming that the people doing the work know the laws.

The biggest problem I see is that the ceiling is just a little too low, that someone dropped the entire ceiling level just because of one pipe. The onte eeper minimum ceiling height in the current code is 6 feet 8 inches clearance, with 6 feet 4 inches under the center beams, air ducts or soffits anywhere in the basement. Always leave access for shutoff valves, wiring connections, cleanouts and other controls.

If you need to move pipes that were installed without any care for your future use of the basement, move them. Piping should go around the perimeter of the basement, no matter what excuse you hear. Because of poor planning and even worse execution, pipes are the No. 1 problem, because someone thoughtlessly put them in a place that was good for them and not for you.

The ceiling finish can be sheetrock in the larger areas with perimeter “hung” track ceilings outfitted with removable ceiling tiles. Again, even those lowered perimeter and under-beam soffits need to be no less than 6 feet 4 inches above the floor. Tall firefighters need to avoid hitting their heads when they’re running though your smoke-filled basement to rescue you or your loved ones.

Although you know you need an escape well window or exterior door entry, placement of the well in some side or front yards can cause a code violation if it’s closer than allowed to a property line. Verify your setback requirements for your zone, and even confirm that with an official at your local building department.

Many jurisdictions require a permit with plans and inspections, so don’t forget these important requirements. There are so many people who are frustrated that their contractor didn’t tell them that they needed a permit, and even worse, that they now have a violation that requires reconstruction to pass inspections. Don’t be one of those people.

Other important issues include what to do with enclosing your heating equipment, putting laundry sinks and washing machines too close to the main electrical service panel, using the wrong kind of wall studs for perimeter walls, not insulating correctly and forgetting to put handrails on the access stairs, inside and out. Heating equipment, to the code, must follow the manufacturer’s specifications.

Installers rarely leave a manual. Sometimes the internet helps. There must be 5/8-inch type X gypsum board on the ceiling extending at least 1 foot in each direction around the boiler. Best of luck!

Q. Our basement is unfinished, and we plan to put in walls and a finished ceiling. We know we need an escape window, but what are your suggestions on other things, like the kind of ceiling? I’m thinking about just sheetrock, but what kind of access do you recommend for the pipes and wires I’ll need to get to?

opinions

eople have called him many things — kind, loving, helpful, funny. I’ve heard him described as meticulous. But to me and my siblings, he’s simply Dad. This year my father turns 89. He still drives. He still goes to church, where he displays his musical talents on the organ, which he taught himself to play.

He lives just blocks from my stepmother, who is in an assisted-living facility with severe dementia.

He spends as much time there as he can.

MiCHAEL My dad loves his wife, his family, HinMAn his spiritual home, and his Tampa Bay Buccaneers. I don’t think anyone was more excited about Tom Brady making the move from Boston.

But when I think about my dad, more often than not, my smile turns to tears.

Not about anything he did — he was and still is a great man — but because of what someone did to him.

My dad was meticulous as he divided a large stack of cash into separate envelopes. His hands shook with fear as he packed each envelope carefully into a box to send off to who knows where. This was

L

$20,000 — money my father, a retired railroad welder, didn’t even have. It came from a loan, one he continues to make payments on today.

The worst part was that my dad knew he was being scammed. He knew that if he told me or any of my siblings, we would stop him.

We would help him. But the scammers on the other end of that phone scared him so much that fear overcame reason and logic.

I’ve recently discovered a YouTube channel called Scammer Payback. It’s led by a cybersecurity expert known only as “Pierogi,” who targets the scammers who have their sights on our parents, our grandparents, our sisters and brothers — really anyone we love.

Pierogi ties the scammers up on the phone for hours. He hacks into their computers and steals their files, turning all of what he unearths over to the authorities.

He has identified the leading scam operations overseas, and pushed for police to arrest them. And he’s personally called people targeted by scammers — many of whom have been victimized for years — to help them break free.

Scams are nothing new, but the scope of such fraud and theft today is unprecedented. The Federal Trade Commission’s

n

Consumer Sentinel Network reported 4.8 million complaints of consumer fraud and identity theft in 2020 — up 45 percent from the year before.

Nearly half of all Americans experienced financial identity theft in 2020, according to the Aite-Novarica Group. Nearly half. That cost all of us more than $700 billion at the height of the coronavirus pandemic.

In recent weeks, AARP Long Island and the U.S. Postal Inspection Service have hosted a series of webinars with the RichnerLive arm of Herald Community Newspapers to explore all kinds of fraud —identity theft, elder fraud and, this week, romance scams. I’ve been honored to moderate these panels, which have included expert advice from AARP New York’s Long Island associate state director, Bernard Macias, as well as USPIS experts like Donna Harris, Michael Del Giudice and Joseph Marcus.

We’ve learned so much. If someone calls you and asks you to send money — for any reason — be skeptical. If they want to get on your computer, say no. If they ask you to use gift cards, or tell you that you must provide them with sensitive personal information, hang up.

Most important, be careful what you share. Facebook is a great way to connect

early half of all Americans experienced financial identity theft in 2020.

to those we love, but it’s also a great way for scammers to collect a ton of personal information about you — information they can weaponize in an effort to empty your bank account.

Be careful about how you dispose of papers containing sensitive details about you. Scammers will dig through your garbage, and they will find exactly what they need to take what rightfully belongs to you.

Join us for our final installment in the Fighting Against Fraud series on Thursday, April 28, at noon. You don’t even have to leave your living room — we’ll come right to your computer. Just register at LIHerald.com/romance.

And then protect yourself by shredding sensitive documents. If you don’t have a shredder, we’ll do it for you. Bring those documents to our offices, at 2 Endo Blvd. in Garden City, this Saturday, April 30, between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m., and we’ll shred them. Just register in advance, at LIHerald.com/shred.

My dad will never see that $20,000 again. So many more like him have lost money that is now counted in the billions.

But it doesn’t have to continue. We can fight scammers by being vigilant, and by educating ourselves, so we — and those we love — are never victimized again.

Michael Hinman is the executive editor of the Herald Community Newspapers. He can be reached at mhinman@liherald.com.

Where have you gone, Walter Cronkite?

ast night, having been off my devices all day and peacefully oblivious to the news, I turned on the TV as I slipped into bed just to catch up. Now, you know and I know that I shouldn’t have done that, but I was feeling out of touch, so I flipped from MSNBC to CNN and Fox to see what was up with the world.

The news was so horrific that it almost seemed like satire. In TV anchor rapidspeak, reporters from around the country and the world told me that: mass graves had RAnDi been found in and KREiss around Mariupol, Ukraine, as Russian forces closed in on the besieged city; wildfires were burning out of control in parts of New Mexico; Israeli and Gaza militants were at war; Florida Gov. Rick DeSantis was punishing Disney for supporting gay rights by removing its tax breaks; new audio had revealed that House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy talked trash about thenPresident Donald Trump after the Jan. 6 insurrection; Florida was banning math books for alleged inappropriate “prohibit-

ed” topics, like race; and — oh, no — Netflix was cracking down on shared accounts.

Sleep was out of the question. In between news segments, just to keep the anxiety level in the stratosphere, commercials from an animal rights group showed bone-thin dogs chained outside in the freezing cold. The voice-over begged for contributions to save these wretched pups. I love dogs more than people, but this commercial feels like an assault, and it doesn’t make me feel like giving more money; it makes me feel like changing the channel.

That was my news experience last evening, which brings me to my question of the day: Walter Cronkite, where are you when we need you?

I am certain that 24-hour news screaming at us from every device we own is detrimental to our health. The American Psychological Association states that “news consumption has a downside … More than half of Americans say the news causes them stress … anxiety, fatigue or sleep loss.”

We were much better off when TV news was broadcast once or twice daily for 15 or 30 minutes. When I was a kid, my parents

H

watched the news at 6 and 11 p.m. For millions of viewers, CBS anchor Walter Cronkite was the voice of reason, truth and journalistic integrity every night during those brief news shows. There were no alternative facts, and “fake news” wasn’t even a blip in the nascent Trump brain.

For those of you too young to remember, in 1962 Cronkite became anchorman of CBS’s newscasts.

Think about it: 15 to 30 minutes of news a day on CBS or the other major channel, NBC. That was it.

Cronkite didn’t have coiffed hair or trendy clothes. He made his bones as a war correspondent in World War II, flying with the U.S. Army Air Force in bombing raids over Germany. After the war, he covered the Nuremberg Trials. In 1950 he was recruited by Edward R. Murrow, another broadcast icon, at CBS News. He interviewed President John F. Kennedy to launch the first 30-minute news broadcast in September 1963, and less than three months later, on Nov. 22, he announced the death of the president on live TV. I was 16 years old. I watched, stricken, as Cronkite removed his glasses and struggled to regain his composure.

e's been replaced by 24-hour news screaming at us from every device.

In the decades since, the news on TV and online has evolved into a circus of both information and misinformation reported by anchors who range from the sublime to the ridiculous to the truly grotesque. TV personalities tell us the news, as it is selected and edited by their researchers and producers. Because the news is now broadcast 24/7, there are thousands of hours of filler and fluff beaming out at us all day and all night long.

What can we do? What agency do we have with this news tsunami coming at us every hour of the day? How to stay informed and still stay sane? We are left to our own devices in more ways than one, and we need to do the most difficult thing, which is to find balance.

We honor the brave correspondents who bring news of the war in Ukraine, and we honor the TV and newspaper reporters whose mission every day is to shine a light in the darkness. We need the news, but we need to calibrate our consumption.

My new rule is no news before bedtime.

No “notifications” on my phone. Our devices beam out information and disinformation indiscriminately. Some of it informs, but much of it triggers anxiety.

We must know, and we have to teach our children, how to tell the difference.

Hello, county Human Rights Commission?

l

ucy Pozo fought hard not to let the people sitting in front of her see her cry.

The senior at East Rockaway High School stood before the district’s Board of Education after a Donald Trump flag surfaced during the school’s annual Sports Night event last month. For Pozo, it wasn’t just about what the former president stands for, but what the display of such a flag said about some of her classmates. Some of the same people she believes target her because of her Hispanic heritage.

“East Rockaway schools have failed me,” she said. “That flag, the reason why nobody was talking about it that day, is because we’re scared.”

Just weeks later, there was an outcry of a different sort in Rockville Centre. A woman there who was reportedly troubled by a large menorah in front of a Chabad center — a display she said was the beginning of an Orthodox Jewish push into the community reminiscent of what has happened to the Five Towns over the past couple of decades.

If the Orthodox community does move into Rockville Centre, the woman said, they will force businesses to close for the Sabbath. They will take over school boards, and send money away from the district. And then they will sell those schools “to the highest bidder.”

Many called the Rockville Centre woman’s comments antisemitic, and it’s nearly impossible not to agree. Pozo’s comments, however, were followed by a number of

letters The Cuomos don’t need career advice To the Editor: Who is letter writer Larry Penner (“Career advice for the Cuomos,” March10-16) to tell two private citizens what to do with their time? Who is Larry Penner to tell a private citizen what to do with his money? The matter of Andrew Cuomo spending his campaign war chest on advertising is a matter between him, his donors and the campaign finance officials.

The right to tell one’s side of the story is a basic American right. So long as he isn’t engaging in libel or slander, Cuomo has the right to freedom of speech — the same freedom of speech that allows Penner to write letters. During the media frenzy calling for Cuomo’s scalp, I saw precious

students earlier this month sharing much broader concerns about how minorities are treated at East Rockaway High.

These aren’t issues unique to East Rockaway High or Rockville Centre, and they aren’t limited to these specific groups. Even as deep as we are into the 21st century, hate continues to find a foothold in our society. While much of it is focused on the color of someone’s skin, it also involves gender and gender identity, religion, where our money comes from, disability, and who we love.

A recent Pew Research Center study revealed that a third of Asian Americans still fear they could be the victims of slurs, jokes and even violence over the perceived origins of the coronavirus pandemic. Locally, that has led to the founding of the Asian American Institute for Research and Engagement, designed to advocate for Asian Americans while using research and data to uncover the roots of the discrimination they face.

“We are all Americans,” said Woodbury’s Farrah Mozawalla, the first-ever Muslim department head in Nassau County government, who founded the new organization. “We all believe in the same values, and it’s now time for us to combat this hatred and discrimination. We need that to stop.”

The battle against hate is seemingly never-ending, but it’s a battle that must be fought. Yet it’s often unclear who is doing the battling. There are informal student and religious groups, as well as organizations like Mozawalla’s.

But Long Island has another weapon against such hatred that has been largely silent in recent months — the Nassau County Human Rights Commission.

It’s made up of 15 commissioners representing those of various races and ethnicities as well as those with disabilities, according to its website. Its stated mission is to “promote harmony among the diverse populations” of the county, through “persuasion, conciliation, investigation and education.”

Could there be a better time than now to promote that harmony? The work this commission does is important, but it can’t stand by while many of these issues fill the pages of your local newspaper, with the fear that things will get worse before they get better.

The commission hasn’t been completely idle. Its website is full of information on what people should do if they feel they’re victims of coronavirus-related discrimination. That’s vital information, for sure. But while the pandemic has dominated our lives over the past two years, community members are bravely stepping forward to expose other issues we just can’t ignore.

And if the Human Rights Commission isn’t addressing these issues, too few people will hear about them. Now is the time for it to step up.

We need to promote harmony. We need to embrace the very differences that make us Americans. And we need that persuasion, conciliation, investigation and education to get that done.

find U.S. Representatives Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, of New York; Ilhan Omar, of Minnesota; Ayanna Pressley, of Massachusetts; and Rashida Tlaib, of Michigan, politically repugnant, because they advocate positions that I believe are destructive to our principles, our nation, our allies and our future.

Typically, last year Ocasio-Cortez initially voted no on a bill that would have helped fund Israel’s anti-missile defense system, the “Iron Dome.” She later flipped her vote to “present” when she realized that Ronald J. her antisemitic was a little RosenbeRg venom too obvious.

Despite her corrosive politics, however, I absolutely defend her right to engage in such actions for, in a democracy, she and her fellow socialists have a protected right to be heard. It is their constituents who have the power to decide whether these individuals deserve to represent their interests on Capitol Hill. In the meantime, our democracy allows us to argue, debate, question and examine their rhetoric, votes, and public policies.

And yet we live in a world where freedom of speech has been suppressed by those who control the most dominant plat-

forms for public speech, social media.

“Facebook jail” has become an oft-repeated phrase among those who have been banned by an algorithm programmed by those who aren’t identified, much less questioned. Some who are forced off theses platform say they are mystified as to why action was taken when they were posting photos of American flags.

This isn’t exactly a new complaint, but it has become far more dangerous to democracy. As far back as 2016, it was noted that Facebook was labeling any number of conservative posts “hate speech.” The publication The Hill noted that year, “Canadian conservative activist Lauren Southern was slapped with a 30-day Facebook suspension over — ironically enough — a post complaining about Facebook censorship of conservatives. (The ban was later reversed and blamed on an error.)”

This kind of subjective destruction of free speech is not unique to online commentary. In colleges and universities across the country, there’s an acknowledgment that conservative students are intimidated by their peers. Interestingly, in a 2020 essay in The Atlantic, a summary of a nationwide campus survey found a glimmer of good news and a shadow that casts a pall on free speech.

T

his lethal threat to our nation is being replicated in our daily interactions.

leTTeRs little of that. There are those who feel that he was not afforded due process. Who is Larry Penner to say that Cuomo doesn’t have the right to tell his side of the story?

If Cuomo can obtain enough signatures on nominating petitions, and they’re vetted by the Board of Elections, he has the right to appear on the ballot. In that case, the people will decide. There has been discussion among lawmakers about impeachment proceedings should Cuomo make it back to office. That issue would be decided by a majority of the Legislature. Not Larry Penner.

I’m not saying Cuomo is guilty or innocent, was or was not a good governor, or would or would not be an effective lawmaker in whatever office he chooses to seek. Only that he has the right not to be judged by a jury of one letter writer.

It’s time for us to step up in Ukraine To the Editor: I am now firmly of the opinion that we must not lose the war in Ukraine. The only two acceptable solutions are to force defeat on Russia or somehow create a

It stated, “While majorities favor more viewpoint diversity and free-speech norms, an intolerant faction of roughly a quarter of students believe it is okay to silence or suppress some widely held views that they deem wrong.

“Students across political perspectives engage in classroom self-censorship.

“Students harbor divisive stereotypes about classmates with different beliefs, and a substantial minority are not open to engaging socially with classmates who don’t share their views.

“Disparaging comments about political conservatives are common.”

An equally disturbing finding from this survey was the idea that conservative students feel intimidated by the potential threat of violence from their liberal counterparts.

It found that nearly 68 percent of those who described their political views as conservative censored themselves, while just under half of moderates, and only 24 percent of liberals, said they did so.

Were it just an isolated virus on college campuses, you might look the other way.

But this lethal threat to our nation is being replicated in government, the courts, and in our daily interaction with business associates, colleagues, friends and even family members. It has become a toxin in the body politic of a country

face-saving peace deal that will restore most of Ukraine, with the exception of the Crimea, and guarantee that it remains a neutral country. But the arrogant Russians are still mobilizing for total victory.

The argument in Washington about offensive or defensive weapons is ridiculous. Do you think Russia would send billions of dollars’ worth of weapons that could easily be easily neutralized by longrange missile attacks and destroyed without consequences? You can’t win a fistfight, or a war, without being able to counterpunch.

We must counter Russia’s massive attacks by giving the Ukrainians weapon systems that can attack long-range missile launch sites, including naval platforms as well as those on land in occupied Ukraine and Russia. What’s the point of transporting advanced weapons systems to Ukraine that can easily be targeted and destroyed by long-range missiles? Or allowing the continued destruction of Ukrainian cities and infrastructure without retaliating against Russia?

Does anybody think the genocidal Russian or Chinese military would adopt such a bizarre passive strategy? The Russians already presume that we’re giving the Ukrainians targeting intelligence and logistics — it’s time we do so. As of now, after being beaten back into their corner of occupied Ukraine, the Russians are pre-

founded on the words of the First Amendment, guaranteeing free speech.

The First Amendment is the immovable cornerstone of our nation. I often find myself at odds with who the American Civil Liberties Union will represent in court, but I stand solidly beside them when they write, “An open society depends on liberal education, and the whole enterprise of liberal education is founded on the principle of free speech.

How much we value the right of free speech is put to its severest test when the speaker is someone we disagree with most.

Speech that deeply offends our morality or is hostile to our way of life warrants the same constitutional protection as other speech because the right of free speech is indivisible.”

Again, the ACLU gets it right when it states, “More speech — not less — is the answer most consistent with our constitutional values.”

A vibrant, robust, and strong democracy requires the unequivocal defense of our freedom of speech regardless of where, when or how we choose to speak our minds. Lose that right and we have lost the Republic.

I’m hoping and praying that Ukraine and its allies give Russia a knockout blow in the coming rounds. And we should remind the Russians that any use of chemical or nuclear weapons might prove

to be a suicidal move, with catastrophic consequences. The time has come to put another ugly, murderous, geek dictator and his fanatical minions in their graves.
