The topic was police reform RVC trustees commend community’s exchange of ideas By BRidGet downes bdownes@liherald.com

Village trustees hosted a virtual public hearing March 1 on the Rockville Centre Police Department’s proposed reform plans, created in accordance with the N ew Yo rk S t at e Police Reform and Reinvention Collaborative Plan, per Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s executive order. The gover nor’s guidance, issued last summer, offered topics for consideration by local police departments, elected officials and residents in order to develop plans for police reform, part eMilio of an overall mis- Trustee sion to improve relationships between communities and law enforcement. Every municipality in the state is to adopt a reform plan by April 1 to be eligible for future state funding. “This plan will enable the Rockville Centre Police Department to continue its outstanding service to the community while working towards further reduc-

‘You always wanted to go back’ Dozens gather to say goodbye to C.J.’s Coffee By toM CARRozzA tcarrozza@liherald.com

Thankful patrons of C.J.’s Coffee Shop marched from Hughes Street to North Long Beach Road on March 6 to celebrate the community fixture and to watch as Mayor Francis Murray presented a proclamation to the Lawrence family, who owned and operated the shop for more than 30 years. On a brisk Saturday morning, village residents arrived

bundled up and masked at the corner of Hughes and Seaman Avenue in a festive, block party-like atmosphere. Dozens marched, some with signs thanking the Lawrence family, and one member of the crowd blasted Elvis Presley on a shoulder-carried stereo. “It was awesome,” Rockville Centre resident and march attendee Carol Ruchalski said. “What a great community we have.” It was the last day for the family — new ownership has

taken over the shop, and it will continue on as a restaurant. “The food and service were always great, but it was Loreen, Chris and John [Lawrence] and all of the workers there that made the difference,” another local, Gerard Baker, said. “It’s why you always wanted to go back.” Around noon, the small crowd gathered to watch Murray’s presentation on behalf of the village.

ing racial disparities in policing,” Commissioner James Vafeades said at the hearing. The plan was created by members of the department, along with community members including local elected officials, nonprofit and faithbased group leaders, a member of the Nassau County dist r i c t a t t o r n e y ’s office, a local public defender, residents who have had interactions with the police, local housing advocates, residents w h o h av e b e e n incarcerated and local education officials. “T he ultimate goal of this process GRillo was to foster trust, fairness and legitimacy between police and the community we serve,” Vafeades said. “There was a transparent exchange of ideas that created the foundation for this plan.” The Police Department, he added, plans to create or modify some 30 sections of the existing police manual, more than double

he emphasis that’s placed on de-escalation, I think, is something that’s really significant.

Residents, officials send off C.J.’s owners thanked Chris Lawrence and his daughters, Loreen, Jennifer and Kerri, for their years of service to the community. “One thing that stands out to me is how they quietly help people,” Ruchalski said. “Whether it’s providing a free meal to someone who can’t pay, lending an ear, donating to every worthy cause, or a friendly smile when you enter.” Loreen Lawrence even ran in the Mary Ruchalski Foundation’s marathon in November, which honors Carol’s late daughter by raising money for pediatric cancer research.

Then, after he preFormer owner sented the proclamation to the Lawrences, they shared emotional hugs with one another and with friends. “Thinking about C.J.’s, I’m reminded of the TV show “Cheers,” Ruchalski said. “It’s a family-friendly place where everybody knows your name and your story. It’s comfortable and constant.” “Thank you for all the years of our relationship,” Chris Lawrence said, addressing the boisterous crowd. “We couldn’t have done anything without all of you guys, and we really appreciate and love you as much as you love C.J.’s.” “It means the world to us,” Loreen said. “Everybody here is like my family. For me this is extended family here, and for everyone to come together like this is amazing.”

residents marched to the coffee shop, some with signs. The family-owned-and-operated restaurant has been in business since 1990. It gave back to the community through its financial support of the St. Patrick’s Day Parade Committee and the RVC Community Fund. “The Lawrence family is a dedicated group of people to this community,” Murray said. “They’re just fantastic people, and they always cared.” C.J.’s received many accolades over the years, includ-

ing winning Best Cup of Coffee on Long Island in Bethpage Federal Credit Union’s Best of L.I. in 2012, 2016 and 2017 and Best Diner on Long Island in 2017, 2018 and 2020. “It’s amazing,” Murray said. “The people who came to this place and ate for so many years cared so much about the Lawrence family to come and give them a great sendoff.”

Police reform plan to be adopted by April 1 continued from front page the number the state recommended. Transparency was one of the plan’s focal points. “The committee believes that with transparency comes trust,” the commissioner said, referring to the group of police officers and community stakeholders who collaborated on the plan. Going forward, the department will post police statistics on its website twice a year, including data on arrests, traffic and field stops, complaints and the use of force. The plan also addresses the use of non-lethal weaponry, the elimination of chokeholds and the implementation of de-escalation training “in an effort to reduce high-stress interactions that could potentially result in the use of force,” the commissioner said. Additionally, officers will be required to complete at least 10 hours of annual training on implicit and systemic racial bias awareness. The department website will accept anonymous complaints, including internal complaints against fellow officers. “This plan reflects the Police Department’s commitment to serving all the people of our community both equally and fairly,” Vafeades said. “. . .

this beautiful survey of the Rockville Centre Police Department and how we’re going to do it going forward,” Mayor Francis Murray said on behalf of the village board after thanking Vafeades. Deputy Mayor Kathy Baxley also thanked the commissioner, as well as the other department and community members who worked on the plan, add-

ing that she had spoken to several of them at different times, and they had praised Vafeades’s approach. “They said he was very thorough, and he incorporated a lot of what they had to say into this plan,” Baxley said, “which is wonderful.” Trustee Emilio Grillo echoed those sentiments, adding that the “spirit of transparency and collaboration” was noteworthy. “Even in spending some time reviewing this 328-page document and all of the exhibits that are attached and everything,” he said, “the emphasis that’s placed on de-escalation, I think, is something that’s really significant, and something that I don’t need to tell you, but will go a long way in working with our community going forward.” Trustees voted unanimously to keep the matter open until a special village meeting on Thursday at 6 p.m. “We’re all confident that the modifications made to the policy will have a positive effect on racial disparities and implied biases in policing,” Vafeades said. “This reform plan does not end when it is submitted on April 1. We consider this plan to be the beginning of an ongoing, progressive process that continues to ensure that policing in Rockville Centre will be done in an equitable, fair and unbiased manner.”

One year later, restaurateurs look to future FranK’s steaKs has plexiglass separating the tables.

By Melissa Koenig mkoenig@liherald.com

In the year since Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced that all restaurants would close statewide, Rockville Centre restaurateurs have learned to adapt to the “new normal” with mandatory temperature checks for their employees and expanded outdoor dining options while indoor dining capacity remained limited. Now, one year later, they are looking forward to the future, as more people are choosing to return to their favorite restaurants, and indoor dining capacity has increased to 75 percent. “We just look forward to getting back to normal,” said Raymond Montemurro, owner of Dodici and Blue Moon restaurants, noting that it has been a rough year for him, with the loss of his father in December, and he is now “just trying to get through this thing.” When Cuomo first announced the statewide closures last year, he said takeout restaurants and even bars, distilleries and wineries would be allowed, at which time, Christopher Meyer, the owner of Frank’s Steaks, said the restaurant started offering takeout orders and many other local restaurant owners reduced the sizes of their staff. “Many hourly workers depend on their paycheck, so that’s disconcerting,” George Korten, owner of George Martin the Original, said at the time, but added, “the safety of our guests is our primary concern, so the shutdown is a very smart move.” As the coronavirus infection rate recently decreased, however, the governor has relaxed some of the restrictions, allowing local restaurants to open their patios for outdoor dining and accommodate patrons indoors with tables placed six feet apart and plexiglass dividers.

“I like to say we reinvented the wheel,” Meyer said, noting that Frank’s Steaks added 15 tables in its driveway last year, which he plans to reopen to patrons next month after shutting it down when the weather turned cold in November. The outdoor tables provided restaurants with more space for its customers, George Korten previously told the Herald, and restaurants like Dodici, Blue Moon and Frank’s Steaks have installed hand-sanitizing stations and constantly check their staff members’ temperatures before each shift. “Customers want to feel safe and comfortable,” Meyer explained, with Montemurro adding, “We’re just trying to do the best we can.” Dodici and Blue Moon, he said, will now add more

Island! g n o L , s o b b a h S d o o G

tables outside to accommodate patrons as the weather gets nicer and more people are getting the Covid-19 vaccine. “There’s a little bit more comfort now,” Meyer said, as more of his restaurant’s regulars are returning for the first time in a year. The 19-year-old restaurant is now preparing for the increase in capacity, with more tables and plexiglass dividers, but Meyer said Frank’s Steaks will remain under 75 percent capacity due to space limitations with each table placed six feet apart. “It’s been a rough road,” Meyer said, “but better days are ahead.” Briana Bonfiglio and Tony Bellisimo contributed to this story.

Conservancy group to plant new trees tcarrozza@liherald.com

The Rockville Centre Conservancy is in the midst of its fourth annual “Tackling Trees” program, which aims to add more trees around town to aid the village both environmentally and aesthetically. Conservancy members said they are excited to continue to offer a diverse selection of trees for residents to purchase. Four years ago, members of the conservancy noticed that the numerous Bradford Pear trees were dying because of a fungus. Marybeth Croutier, of the conservancy, said the diseased trees were harming the look of the neighborhood. “That’s why it’s called the tackling trees program,” conservancy member Matt Cliszis said. “Because what we started to do was do a removal and replacement of a lot of these street trees.” With hundreds of Bradford Pear trees planted around the residential and commercial districts, the conservancy looked to create an event that would both remedy the issue and put out new, diverse sets of trees to improve the areas environmentally and aesthetically. “Who doesn’t love a tree-lined street when they’re shopping for a house?” Croutier asked. In the program’s first year in 2018, the conservancy removed about 150 Bradford Pear trees, and, over the following two years, nearly all of the removed trees were replaced. That work has allowed the conservancy to focus Tackling Trees’ goal on adding new trees

to the community. “Aesthetically and environmentally, trees provide an important value to the community,” member Kevin Breen said. “And just getting rid of them without replacing them would probably not be the best idea.” What differentiates this year from previous ones is a focus on native trees. To diversify the plants and avoid a fungus compromising a whole swath of the village’s trees, the conservancy is offering six tree types: Sugar maple, Honeylocust, Red Maple, Serviceberry, Kwanzan Cherry and Zelkova. All but the Kwanzan Cherry and Zelkova are trees native to Long Island. The two non-native ones are known to be resistant to fungi. “We recommend that people purchase multiple trees and different types in case there’s ever another disease issue,” Cliszis said. The village’s planting program occurs in the fall, so conservancy members decided they wanted to bookend that program with their own so that residents have an additional opportunity to plant trees on their properties. Tree orders cost $315 each and include planting and a one-year replacement guarantee. Residents can also choose small trees, 15 to 25 inches; medium trees, 25 to 40 inches; or large trees, 40 feet or more. Tree orders began coming in in the first week of March and will continue through April 30. The plantings will be done in May, with the trees being supplied by Barbato Landscaping. The conservancy is also always looking for more residents to join via the volunteer tab on rvcconservancy.org.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo is under increasing pressure to step aside or resign while investigations into sexual harassment accusations by four women and his administration’s handling of data Covid-19 deaths at nursing homes last year are investigated by State Attorney General Letitia James and the Assembly. At the Herald, we wanted to know what the state lawmakers who represent the communities within our coverage area, on the North and South shores, are thinking. Should he resign? Stay put? The chart above, by Herald Photo Editor Christina Daly, gives their viewpoints in brief. Five members of the State Senate delegations, all Democrats, said he should step aside for now, allowing Lt. Gov. Kathy Hochul to assume his duties while the investigations are carried out. In the Assembly, Democrat Judy Griffin, of Rockville Centre, said unequivocally that he should resign. Assemblywoman Michaelle Solages, a Democrat from Elmont, is reserving her judgment for now. Re publican Assembly members David McDonough, John Mikulin, Missy Miller, Michael Montesano and Ed Ra all said that he should be impeached or he should resign. In a statement, the five senators wrote, “The recent allegations of sexual harassment and misconduct against the governor are beyond troubling and describe a disturbing pattern of behav-

ior that also now includes a potentially criminal act. “The gravity of these claims makes it clear to us that the governor cannot lead the state while faithfully responding to multiple investigations. This is especially true in light of the impending state budget deadline, the need to continue guiding the state through the pandemic and the fragility of the state’s economic recovery. “The New York State Constitution demands that if the governor is ‘unable to discharge the powers and duties of the office of governor, the lieutenantgovernor shall act as the governor until the inability shall cease.’ We call on the governor to step aside, at least until such time that the attorney general’s investigation is complete. We are confident that the lieutenant governor will ably serve the people of New York.” U.S. Rep. Kathleen Rice, who represents the South Shore’s 4th District, was among the first lawmakers from New York to call on Cuomo to resign after a third woman came forward accusing him of sexual harassment. Rice, a Democrat, tweeted, “The time has come. The Governor must resign.” Below it, she posted a New York Times story detailing the third woman’s accusations that Cuomo had inappropriately approached her at a wedding in 2019, wrapping his hands around her cheeks, as seen in a photograph, and asking to kiss her. The incident, according to The Times, was recorded contemporaneously in text messages. Cuomo has said he will not resign. More as this story develops.

Herald Football News South Side falls to MacArthur By anDreW Coen sports@liherald.com

The long wait for a final high school season was well worth it for Andrew Calderon. The MacArthur senior lineman recovered a blocked field-goal attempt and raced 79 yards for a touchdown with five seconds left before halftime in the Generals’ Conference II opener at South Side last Saturday in a play that proved to be the key turning point in a 27-6 win. “I have been playing tackle football since I was four years old and had never scored a touchdown until today,” said Calderon, whose first time reaching the end zone off turned a one-point MacArthur lead into a 14-6 halftime advantage. “The best part about it was celebrating with my teammates and seeing them get all hyped for me.” Calderon’s celebratory moment, which was made possible thanks to Finn Duffy blocking South Side’s 35-yard field goal attempt when MacArthur led 7-6, nearly never had a chance to occur after the fall season scrapped due to COVID-19. Saturday’s road game marked the first time MacArthur and South Side had taken the field since November 2019 as the kickoff to an abridged six-game spring schedule. MacArthur carried over the momentum from Calderon’s scoop and score with a six-play 56-yard drive to start the second half capped off by a one-yard touchdown on a quarterback keeper from Ryan Muller. Ryan Isom opened the drive with 45-yard run. Isom later put the game away with a three-yard touchdown run early in the fourth quarter that made it 27-6. The senior running back finished

with 137 yards on 21 carries. “We controlled the ball for the second half,” said MacArthur head coach Bobby Fehrenbach, noting South Side only ran eight offensive plays in the final two quarters. “Our line is very big so we wanted to take advantage of that.” Powering MacArthur’s strong running game were starting linemen Matt Cacace, Anthony Tufano, Greg Mila, James Clarkson and Calderon. Muller completed a 66-yard touchdown to Matt Papach early in the second quarter on his only pass of the game when the Generals trailed 6-0. Mike Randazzo converted the ensuing extra point for a 7-6 lead. South Side took an early 6-0 lead following a Matt Melkonian 3-yard touchdown run early in the first quarter. “He is going to be our workhorse this year,” South Side head coach Phil Onesto said of Melkonian. The five play 25-yard drive, which was set up by a blocked punt from Jack Temple, featured 16 yards on three carries by Melkonian. Senior quarterback JohnJude Considine competed a nine-yard screen pass to TJ Maher on the drive. “We knew it was going to be a tough game and we are happy with the effort that our kids had,” Onesto said. “We’re going to take what we did well and improve on that.” The Cyclones return to the field this Saturday at Elmont for a 2 p.m. kickoff. MacArthur is next in action at home against Mepham at 2 p.m. “We didn’t know if this was going to happen so when it did everyone was so excited to get back together,” Calderon said. “We know it could always get taken away so every day I get to spend with my teammates is a pleasure.”

NCPD’s chief of support talks historic promotion

By mattheW FerremI mferremi@liherald.com

For the first time in Nassau Police Department history, a Black woman has been promoted to the position of chief of support. Lorna Atmore, a 25-year member of NCPD, was promoted to the chief support position on Feb. 25. She succeeds Chief Ronald Walsh, who recently left to serve as Long Beach police commissioner. Atmore is now commander of the Support Division, one of the department’s

largest units that includes the 911 center, information technology and the upcoming police body camera program. With the new position, Atmore is fifth in line for command of the department. “I really appreciate the support of Commissioner Patrick Ryder and County Executive Laura Curran for their confidence in my abilities,” Atmore said. “I’m just really excited to step into the role and hopefully do a good job.” Ryder said she is well qualified for her new role. “The promotion of Assistant Chief Lorna Atmore to three-star chief of support was an easy decision, as she is known to be one of the most dedicated and intelligent professionals in the executive ranks,” Ryder said in a statement. “I have great confidence in her ability to get the job done and to serve the residents in Nassau County.” Curran said that she was pleased to promote Atmore to her new role. “I’m proud of the efforts Nassau continues to make to ensure our law enforcement reflects the rich diversity of our communities – especially for positions of leadership,” Curran said in a statement. “Chief Atmore’s dedication to the department and her command experience have defined her as a true professional, a leader and a trailblazer.” Atmore began in the force as an officer and eventually rose to sergeant in the 3rd Precinct. She also led the 7th Precinct’s Detective Squad and was later promoted to captain, inspector and deputy commanding officer in the 4th Precinct, before being promoted to deputy chief of the support division. Family members who were in the New York City Police Department inspired her initial interest in a law enforcement career. “I really thought the job wouldn’t be a fit for me at first, but my cousins assured me that I would enjoy the job and to give it a chance,” she said. “I took their word for it, and by the time I got done with the police academy, I was in love with the job.” Atmore noted she wants to inspire young people of color who might be interested in a law enforcement career. “I hope that young people look up and see myself and other people of color in prominent positions and see what we’ve accomplished so they can visualize themselves as future leaders in law enforcement,” she said. “I think that we represent these opportunities that exist that young people may not know about.” Atmore added that she hopes in the future that more people of color are promoted to prominent law enforcement posts. “I understand and appreciate the excitement of my promotion and its uniqueness,” she said. “In my mind, I’m hoping that in the next five to 10 years that promotions like this will be more commonplace.”

DR. ROBERT BRAMANTE

EAST ROCKAWAY Nurse Manager, Mount Sinai South Nassau, Oceanside

ROCKVILLE CENTRE Director, Emergency Services Mercy Hospital, RVC

hen I came back from maternity leave on Feb. 18, 2020, everybody was talking about the coronavirus and thought it was going to be like another flu. No one thought it was going to be that bad. Within a couple of days, things started rapidly changing and we saw unit by unit change to Covid units. My staff houses oncology patients, but all of a sudden, my floor had 38 Covid patients, and it was just tough, especially being a manger, at those times. Everyone was scared, everyone was nervous. We didn’t know what we were going to bring back to our families, and we worked in personal protective equipment all day long. It was like nothing I ever thought I’d experience in my lifetime. My staff and I quickly adapted to changes and supported the patients as best as we knew

how. We used iPads to communicate with families to give them some closure and be able to see their family. A lot of people left here without seeing their families, and it was really sad. Some days, it’s still surreal to me. I think that for my staff, a lot of us are still processing what we’re going through. We’ve remained a Covid unit since last March. We haven’t gone back. It’s been a very emotional time, because as a leader, you’re never taught how to manage during a pandemic. You’re managing your entire staff and trying to emotionally get them through this. You have to be strong for them. It was definitely a growing experience for me as a leader.

started as the chairman at Mercy just three months prior to the onset of the Covid pandemic. So, it was really a learning challenge. Every day, we saw people critically ill, people dying in far of excess of what we would normally see in the emergency department on a daily basis, which was extremely challenging. I have four small children, and my wife and I always worried about bringing it home to them. Luckily, I only had a very mild case of it. I was one of the people who apparently had Covid at some point and didn’t even know I had it. So, I’m happy I didn’t bring it home to them. I’m happy that I did well and that those members of my team and the hospital staff that got it for the most part did well, as well. That’s probably the thing I’m most grateful for

HERALD HOMETOWN HERO

at this point. Our team remained intact. People really didn’t get sick from the emergency department staff, and everyone’s back doing their jobs and helping the community. We treated a lot of people. A lot of people went home, and a lot of people ended up doing well in the end. It was the toll of the ones that didn’t make it that really weighed on everyone. But we’re seeing far less people severely ill or dying from Covid at this point. The atmosphere has really been far less hectic since May. As of now, things are getting much closer to back to normal.

THEIR FRONT-LINE STORIES IN THEIR OWN WORDS DR. DEBBIE SALASLOPEZ

DR. JASON ESSES LONG BEACH Director, Center for Cardiovascular Health MSSN

uring the worst of the Covid-19 pandemic, in February and March of last year, I worked every single day, at the Center for Cardiovascular Health in Long Beach. We were seeing a lot of patients every single day. A lot of the patients, if they did not have it, they thought they might have it because they were exposed to it. In May and June, things calmed down somewhat. But then this past November, December and January, things got worse again. We were seeing lots and lots of patients. My stress level was very high. My patients’ stress level was very high. The same for my family. What we are seeing these days are fewer people with symptoms, and people are not as sick as they were in the past. We are also seeing very few flu cases. That is because

FREEPORT Senior Vice President, Northwell Health Senior VP

people are masked and observing social distancing. These last few weeks, even people we thought might die, people who were overweight, were elderly and with other health problems, survived. A lot of that has to do with awareness of the pandemic situation and observing the Covid regulations. How did this change my life? It affected me. IYou couldn’t socialize with friends or with family in the way you might like to. It all took away the focus of the things you would like to do. But then I realized that not being able to go to sporting events is not the end of the world. The important thing is spending time at home with your family.

HERALD HOMETOWN HERO

e worked with the Memorial Presbyterian Church to roll out the [vaccine] distribution to Roosevelt and the surrounding communities it services — Hempstead, Freeport, Baldwin and Uniondale. These communities of color have been disproportionately affected by Covid. We’re working to ensure the communities have an equal opportunity for health and wellness. It’s part of Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s mandate to see that the vaccine is equally distributed to residents, and we want to help focus on our communities of color who have had the highest infection rates. We had about 250 sign up for this distribution event. The church helped call and reach out to members of the communities who were eligible for the vaccine. This time

we worked together with the [Memorial] Presbyterian Church to provide services for the community during the pandemic. Last year, we were able to set up a rapid Covid-19 testing site at the church. That’s something we’ve with several churches and other community groups throughout the county and Long Island. Partnerships like these are important to combat the spread of Covid and serve these communities of color. I’m thankful to the Memorial Presbyterian Church for working with us again so that we can deliver these vaccines to the people who need them most, and we’ll be working with them and others to continue distributing more vaccinations as they come.

Residents protest lack of school state aid By Tom Carrozza tcarrozza@liherald.com

Advocates from several Long Island organizations gathered in front of State Sen. Todd Kaminsky’s office on Front Street in Rockville Centre on March 4, calling on Kaminsky to combat Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s proposed state budget, that would cut financial aid to public school across the Island. Calling the event Lemonade for School Aid, participants set up lemonade stands to illustrate the lengths to which school districts might have to go if schools do not nia adams h ave e n o u g h funding from the Jericho state. Representatives of the Nassau Democratic Socialists of America, New York Communities for Change and the Long Island Progressive Coalition taped signs saying “Lemonaid 4 School Aid” to their lemonade stands on the sidewalk outside the senator’s office. The group of about a dozen protesters was in high spirits as they passed out fliers to passersby. Then they spoke passionately about the failures they see in funding schools in communities like Hempstead and Elmont. “It seems to me that if it’s going to keep going in this direction, our kids are going to have to look for money for themselves,” Elmont resident William Bailey said. The Long Island Progressive Coalition, one of the event’s organizers, encouraged state officials, including Kaminsky, to support the Invest in Our New York Act, an online petition supporting a package of bills that activists would like to see passed through the state Legislature, which would seek to raise $50 billion by

represenTaTives of several progressive Long Island organizations protested for more school funding in their communities outside State Sen. Todd Kaminsky’s office on March 4. ending tax breaks for New York’s richest citizens in order to prevent cuts to public programs like housing, health care and education. With remote learning taking hold during the coronavirus pandemic, tablet computers and technology like Zoom have become required to attend class, and lack of access to them has proved to be a barrier for many students in local districts. “Not everybody has good Wi-Fi or good Inter net,” Bailey said. “In wealthy schools they were able to provide that, and make sure the kids had proper learning and proper care.” Peggy Perkins, a Hempstead resident, a member of New York Communities for Change and a mother of three, said that children in her community are often given refurbished devices that don’t always work and have cost students valuable classroom time. “As parents, as adults, we have a responsibility to our children,” Perkins said, “and these gov-

ernment officials are failing our children.” “Children should have a high-quality education regardless of their Zip code, where they live, who their parents are and what kinds of jobs they do,” said another participants, Nia Adams, of Jericho.

“Ensuring Long Island schools receive the funding they need to give our children the first-rate educations they deserve is a top priority of mine as I help to craft the state budget in the coming weeks,” Kaminsky said in a statement after the protest. April 1 is the state budget deadline.

The U.S. Department of the Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service have issued final regulations that require taxpayers to reduce their charitable contribution deductions by the amount of any state or local tax credits they receive or expect to receive in return. The IRS stated that taxpayers may treat payments they make in exchange for these credits as state or local tax payments. This allows some taxpayers to deduct certain of the payments as taxes.

LIRR reverses schedule cuts amid concerns msmollins@liherald.com

Oceanside resident Dennis Herman said he was frustrated when the Long Island Rail Road’s amended schedule caused his commute from Oceanside to Brooklyn to take longer than usual, and that he felt unsafe on crowded trains. “Every car was full and it was standing room only,” Herman said. “People were sitting next to each other and someone sat down next to me an inch away, which to my mind was a super spreader event.” Herman has mostly been working from home since the beginning of the pandemic, aside from the few times he drove into his office, where he works as an attorney in Brooklyn. Because he is over 65, Herman said, he has been very careful about adhering to social distancing and other guidelines from health experts. On March 8, he returned to his office for the first time on a weekday, but said the number of trains going from Oceanside to Brooklyn were limited amid planned LIRR service cuts, and he had to take a crowded train from Baldwin instead. “I felt very unsafe on the railroad,” he added. Herman was one of many commuters who expressed their displeasure with LIRR cuts and over feeling unsafe on crowded trains. In response, the LIRR announced plans to amend its schedule. “We heard our customers’ concerns

about our new schedule loud and clear,” LIRR President Phillip Eng said in a statement. “As a result, we will restore our previous timetable on March 29. In the meantime, we will continue to strategically add additional trains and lengthen trains to meet evolving ridership levels. We continue to monitor seating availability with unprecedented clarity thanks to new technology.” LIRR ridership had decreased rapidly at the height of the pandemic and continued to decline in the months following, but Eng said with Covid-19 cases declining and the vaccine being made more readily available, he anticipates more riders returning to trains as New York gets closer to reopening. State Sen. Todd Kaminsky, a Democrat from Long Beach and member of the Senate Transportation Committee, was among those pushing the LIRR to reverse its schedule cuts, and he expressed his satisfaction after it was complete. “The MTA’s decision to reverse cuts on the LIRR and restore normal service by the month’s end will provide Long Islanders with the sane, safe and dignified commutes they deserve,” he said in a statement. “This victory for riders happened because we worked together to make our voices heard. I will continue to fight for LIRR riders and hold the MTA accountable — our region’s recovery demands a high level of confidence in our public transit system, and with that confidence now shaken, the time to improve the railroad’s quality is now.”

With Schedule cutS causing lengthy rides and crowded trains for Long Island Rail Road commuters, many riders complained, leading to the Metropolitan Transportation Authority deciding to return to its regular schedule.

Q. Our home is in serious need of renovation, and we want to do things that are more cost-effective and environmentally friendly, like solar, collecting rainwater for an indoor garden and outdoor plants, heat collection to heat our house and water — we’ve been making a list for a couple of years while we figure this out. I plan to do most of the heavy lifting myself and get people who can help me with the power, A.C. and water to save money and get what I want. Do I have to get any kind of special approvals for the plumbing or electrical if I do it myself? I’ve already done plumbing and electrical in my home without anything special.

Fabulous Family Home In the Heart of Hewlett Harbor

HOME OF THE WEEK

A. It’s exciting when I see a project where the systems are being integrated and technologies and nature are working together. More people are now looking to create an open and airy home that “fits” to a site, in their environment, without as much maintenance as their parents had to do. Most of what you’re doing costs more at the beginonte eeper ning, but can save tremendously the longer it’s in use. By doing your own labor, you’re saving on the most costly component of construction, but can you do the work yourself ? I’m seeing this trend more with the latest generation of younger homeowners, who are interested in bringing in more sunlight, open spaces that heat and cool more naturally, creating an experience to live in. It’s harder to do on cookie-cutter plots of land, but with so many maintenance-free time- and cost-saving technologies, like using your voice or programming to turn on lights, lower the temperature or start a meal, the Carousel of Progress at Disney World will need to catch up. The answer to your question has to do with health and safety, mainly. Skilled and trained professionals generally know how to install and troubleshoot or anticipate problems you may not know about. You need to know where these newer systems have faults and failures if you plan to do the work yourself. Certain materials come in subtle gradations, like gauges of wiring, tolerances of tubing, thicknesses of copper, for example, and using the wrong one could reduce the longevity of the system or cause dangerous results. Most municipalities require that licensed electricians and plumbers do the work, but will allow you to qualify with a test and interview to show your competency. Over the years I have had many clients do their own work successfully, but most have leveled with me that there were certain things they either would have done differently or had someone else do, because the project required tools or time they just didn’t want to invest in. Most important, even if you do get permission to do the work yourself, you’ll need to have it inspected. Without final and official certificates, you may not be able to sell your home. Good luck!

OpINIONS

year ago, we faced many new challenges as the coronavirus threw the world into a panic. Many unanswered questions made us fearful of both the known and the unknown. Despite this heightened level of stress, we adjusted, and new approaches to cope with the pandemic arose. We Zoomed from room to room, and country to country, without having to pack our bags or experience jet lag. We found a new dress code for our virtual meetings: ROBERT mullet outfits with “business on GOLDMAN the top, party on the bottom,” and made sure to turn off the cat filter. Masks became more than just a protective measure: They became a fashion statement, or an advertisement or promotion for a business, product or cause. For some of us, reality TV became an escape: Joe Exotic was anointed the “Tiger King,” as the mystery of who killed Carole Baskin’s husband still lingers. Speaking of lingering, some of us put on the pandemic

pounds as we binged on series and food. All of the changes emerging from the pandemic are linked to our human need to stay connected during times of adversity. Fads are an expression of belongingness. Sadly, the social deprivation that we all experienced left a hole in this fundamental human need for contact and connectedness. As we had to increasingly remain socially distant, our need for emotional connectedness grew stronger. As an attorney and practicing psychologist, I witnessed firsthand how many of my attorney colleagues reported on social media feeling stressed. This was a shocker, as attorneys are known for being loath to admit they struggle. I felt a call to action, and started offering resiliency training over Zoom to my fellow attorneys. Little did I know that this group would offer me support as I mourned the passing of my father during the pandemic, when public gathering was prohibited. The Virtual Lawyers Lounge continues to be relevant, and is more than 500 members strong. The pandemic was a rare event in which human distress was universal, as

we learned early on that Covid-19 does not discriminate. Our common experience of living through the pandemic created a space for empathy across the world, even if we couldn’t give a hug or wipe a tear for those who needed it the most. The buzzword born out of our universal experience is resilience: the ability to overcome adversity. By our evolutionary nature, resilience is tied to our need to survive. We survived by finding new ways to connect. These new ways should not be forgotten, but rather incorporated into our “new normal,” whatever that is. Now, as the vaccines roll out and the new world opens up, questions stoke our fears. Is the new world safe? What will the new normal look like? This anxiety is the reality for adults and children who were abruptly thrown into a new lifestyle, without any mental or emotional buffers. For example, the child who will awaken from his Covid-19 slumber of gaming and return to a classroom setting where he will barely recognize his classmates through the mask-covered mouths and protective Plexiglas that separates them from one another.

ow, as the vaccines roll out, new questions stoke our fears. Is the new world safe?

As we venture into the new normal, I envision a world of hope and reprioritized values. For a resilient march to this new normal, we must acknowledge that much of what we believe in having control over is just an illusion; we need to remain present in all that we do and appreciate the temporary nature of all circumstances. When the inevitable, unpredictable event happens, embracing it with optimism, fortitude and courage helps us through the rough patch and aids us as we move forward to where we want to be. Most important, in the resilient march to the new normal, we must never forget the need and value of hugging one another, rebuilding our personal connections, wiping away a tear and offering an approving smile that may be seen with or without a mask. As of this writing, 2.65 million people across the world have died because of the coronavirus. In honoring those we lost and keeping alive the lessons learned, we must become more vigilant about tending to our health, physically and mentally.

Fragments: surviving a season of loss

didn’t tune in to the news at all yesterday, and that was a happy change from one year ago, when I couldn’t not watch, but when I did watch, the grim predictions from epidemiologists, juxtaposed with the misinformation coming from the White House, had me worried sick. Doctors told us to wear masks, stay at home, close schools and avoid contact even with our parents and children and grandchildren. At the same time, the president rolled out his RANDI no-big-deal mesKREISS sage. He promised that the coronavirus would just go away. Yet people were dying, and refrigerator morgue trucks were parked on New York City streets. For me, not trusting our highest elected officials to keep us safe in the face of a historic pandemic was psychologically destabilizing. The message was: You’re on your own. We did what we had to do. No kids, no supermarkets, no friends and no communal events of any kind.

Now, one year later, I don’t need to hear the news because I trust that the government is going about its business, fighting the best fight it can against the virus. What does this pandemic anniversary mean to us? My husband and I are just past two weeks since our second vaccine. I think we’ll be fine, but there is a definite process to reemerging and rebooting a full life. With the second jab, it isn’t as if this dreadful year gets erased. Just a glance in the mirror reminds me that I’m not the same person I was last March. I made a joke in a column last year about my own personal silver lining as my hair turned gray. Now it’s even more so, and very long, a kind of metaphor about time and change and a new acceptance of mortality. I’m thinking about my friends of the heart who died over the past year, Marlene and Marty and Don. I mention their names to write them into my world and honor their memory. They didn’t all die of Covid-19, but they left this world too

soon and without the comforting rituals of traditional funerals and visiting among family and friends after the loss. Letting them go is more difficult because there was no way to say a real goodbye or hold the hands of their loved ones. My husband has photos of these buddies pasted on a full wall in his office, like the man without a country, yearning for “home.” Living through this year, with plenty of food and access to the Internet and the ability to work online, reminded me that good fortune shines on only some people. More than 530,000 of us died, many because they had to go to work, or lived in large family groups or couldn’t figure out the byzantine vaccine rollout protocols. I don’t know their names, but I want to carry them with me into the post-pandemic world, with a kind of “never forget” mantra. They shouldn’t just disappear. In the beginning I was Zooming with the grandkids pretty often, and then less often, and then we had hardly anything to share because we weren’t doing anything all day. I thought from the begin-

ven friends who died of something other than Covid were deprived of comforting rituals.

ning that the teenagers suffered most from the isolation and emotional vacuum that can follow months of down time with no other kids around. I have faith in their resilience, though, and history teaches us that young people have survived other deprivations, especially during wartime. We ventured out the other evening for the very first time, to sit in an outside tented area of a restaurant. It wasn’t perfect. It felt strange to wait for food, and I was impatient. I realize I have to give this new normal some time. One year after the pandemic began surging across America and the world, my freezer is still packed. I have more toilet paper than I need. I remember some of my parents’ behaviors, which I called a Depression-era mentality, and I know we have adopted some slightly irrational habits as a result of our anxiety during the worst days of Covid-19. I expect all of this will evolve as our faith in the future — any future — is restored. I would like to live long enough to read the great books that will surely be written about this year, especially the fiction, which so often touches the most profound truths.

Federal aid gives Nassau a shot in the arm

assau County got some very good news last week after passage of the $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan: The county will receive $397.7 million in federal aid to pay for expenses after it fell into a deep budget hole caused by the coronavirus pandemic. Covid-19 has not only killed more than 530,000 people in the United States, but also has ravaged the finances of our state and local governments and school districts. States and counties — which depend heavily on sales taxes for funding — were particularly hard hit over the past year. People haven’t been shopping at local businesses the way they did before the pandemic, in part because many fear contracting the virus in public, and many simply haven’t the money to shop. We hope and trust that the ARP will be a vital shot in the arm to reignite the economy, both here in New York and across the country. It is certainly giving local elected leaders the opportunity to breathe easier, knowing they won’t have to lay off essential workers, including police officers and emergency medical technicians. In total, New York state will receive $12.6 billion in aid, which will be used to mitigate the spread of the virus and enhance the vaccination effort, as well as balance the state’s budget so it, too, can avoid layoffs. School districts will also benefit from the funding allocation.

letters Stimulus bill delivers relief To the Editor: Congressional passage of the most recent stimulus bill, called the American Rescue Plan, is great news for all Americans, regardless of your politics. Beyond delivering much-needed relief to people struggling to make ends meet, this bill also provides the bold federal investment necessary to accelerate vaccine distribution, ensure that schools fully reopen and support struggling small businesses, like our restaurants. I am especially pleased that this bill funds local governments like Nassau County, particularly as we continue to hold the front line in our fight to defeat the coronavirus once and for all. LAURA CURRAN Nassau County executive

Cuomo should step aside To the Editor: The recent allegations of sexual harassment and misconduct against Gov. Andrew Cuomo are

No doubt, the ARP is far-reaching. We should all be thankful that state and local governments will be made whole after a historically devastating year. Leaving them to fend for themselves — essentially the plan of Republican leaders like Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell — could have, and likely would have, been disastrous. Mass layoffs of front-line workers would have meant a double whammy for the nation: We would have lost not only many people entrusted with protecting our safety during the pandemic, but also their spending power and tax dollars. The first round of federal pandemic aid provided by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, or CARES, was a $2.2 trillion economic stimulus bill, passed last March, that provided aid to states and, in a more limited way, local governments, as well as loans to businesses. It saved tens of thousands of businesses, especially small ones, and many, many lives, in particular through vaccine research. The trouble was this: Any aid that state and local governments accepted could be used only to fund coronavirus mitigation efforts. There was no aid to those governments to continue operations while the economy was tanking last spring. State and local elected leaders pleaded — practically begged — for greater aid beyond funding for coronavirus mitigation, but the Republican-controlled Senate and President Trump would not budge.

The second round of aid, a hotly contested bill signed late last year, provided $900 billion, again without unrestricted aid to state and local governments. With this third round of federal aid, we are seeing the load lifted for state and local elected leaders. At the same time, the American Rescue Plan will increase funding for vaccination programs, and provide $1,400 in direct aid to a majority of working families and individuals and greater funding for small businesses. Yes, we continue to add to America’s debt — a debt that will one day have to be repaid. U.S. debt now stands at $27 trillion — or 128 percent of our gross domestic product. Only 10 years ago, we worried that our debt had surpassed 90 percent of GDP. So yes, we will have to cut back in the future. Now, however, is not the time. In the here and now, we must focus on economic recovery, and the only way to lift ourselves out of our current fiscal quagmire and jump-start spending is through federal aid. Going forward, we will have to work harder than ever — and we will have to do so together, united as one country, Republicans and Democrats. And we will have to innovate, which means we will have to focus more than ever on providing educational resources not only to our children, but to people of all ages. As a nation, we will survive, but we will have to do a lot better than we did in 2020.

opinions

uring the coronavirus pandemic, many of us have needed to get outside, and have rediscovered the joy of walking or riding a bike to see friends and exercise. Should this trend continue — and record bike sales suggest that it will — then New Yorkers will be healthier, traffic will be less congested and air quality will improve. But for walking and biking to be realistic options for most people, we first need to invest in safe and adequate infrastructure, just as we have Carter done for every mode of striCkLanD other transportation. This is a critical public safety issue for Long Island. Today, our roads are too risky — Nassau and Suffolk counties were ranked second and third most dangerous in the state, as measured by the number of fatalities, personal injuries and property damage resulting from traf-

fic crashes. In fact, in 2019, Long Island accounted for over a quarter of all bicycle fatalities in New York. Too many lives have been lost because of dangerous roads. Safe places to bike and walk are also part of a holistic economic recovery. Civic leaders seeking to attract and retain young professionals with amenities comparable to any major city and to solidify a strong “sense of place” across the Island have already invested in revitalizing downtowns with walkable communities and affordable multi-family housing. The missing commercial part of that mix may follow even faster than expected now, as many people who have worked from home for more than a year question the value of long commutes. In fact, the large redevelopment areas proposed for Long Island are mixed use, with the intention of creating live-work-play communities — and future residents and workers will look for recreational opportunities and better connections to parks.

afe places to bike and walk are an important part of a solid economic recovery.

Letters beyond troubling, and describe a disturbing pattern of behavior that also now includes a potentially criminal act. The gravity of these claims makes it clear to us that the governor cannot lead the state while faithfully responding to multiple investigations. This is especially true in light of the impending state budget deadline, the need to continue guiding the state through the coronavirus pandemic and the fragility of the state’s economic recovery. The New York State Constitution demands that if the governor is “unable to discharge the powers and duties of the office of Governor, the Lieutenant-Governor shall act as the Governor until the inability shall cease.” We call on the Cuomo to step aside, at least until such time that the state attorney general’s investigation is complete. We are confident that the lieutenant governor would ably serve the people of New York. JoHN BRookS, JAMES GAuGHRAN, Todd kAMINSkY, ANNA kAPLAN and kEvIN THoMAS New York state senators

Was the chopper really necessary? To the Editor: Was it really essential for Gov. Andrew Cuomo to travel from Albany via helicopter to visit the round-the-clock Covid-19 vaccination center at the Javits Convention Center recently? The event was little more than a career politician’s photo op.

The good news is that both Nassau and Suffolk counties have started to invest in safe biking and walking trails. There are first-class bike paths in Eisenhower Park and Bethpage State Park, as well as several trail systems in parks and a few northsouth trails. What is missing is a main artery to tie this all together, much as the Long Island Expressway did for an earlier generation that wanted to drive their cars to the post-war suburbs. A proposed Long Island Greenway would provide this connectivity and jumpstart a true network of trails for point-to-point travel across the Island. Stretching 175 miles from Manhattan to Montauk, the greenway would be a multi-purpose trail that would be mostly off-road along power lines, connecting downtown redevelopment areas such as Innovation Park and the Nassau Hub, 26 parks and 46 train stations. It would make walking and biking safe for people on Long Island and a real option for exercising, visiting friends, even picking up gro-

ceries. And it would be good for downtown business as well: Trail users spend about $250,000 per mile annually on trailrelated local businesses, according to a 2012 study by the Rails to Trails Conservancy. This project could be shovel-ready and provide jobs in the near term while setting the foundation for Long Island’s success over the long term. The state has already built the Empire State Trail from Buffalo to New York City, and has invested in preliminary engineering studies to extend it across Long Island. According to a study released recently by New Yorkers for Clean Water and Jobs, 65,000 jobs could be created by the $3 billion New York State Environmental Bond Act, which would support projects like the Long Island Greenway. We need those jobs now to help our economic recovery, and those investments would pay back health and economic dividends for years. Long Islanders should call on their elected officials to support investments in park infrastructure. Carter Strickland is the New York state director for the Trust for Public Land.

Why couldn’t Cuomo ride Amtrak from Albany to Manhattan? upon arrival, it would have been a quick five-minute walk through the $1.6 billion Moynihan Train Hall to the Javits Convention Center. Perhaps Cuomo didn’t want to rub shoulders with constituents while riding Amtrak and walking to his news conference. He might have also run into reporters, who were banned from the Javits Center event. They might have asked some embarrassing questions dealing with his ongoing nursing home and sexual harassment scandals. The day before his visit, u.S. Representatives Carolyn Maloney, Jerry Nadler and Nydia velazques, along with Manhattan Borough President Gale Brewer, conducted a news conference at the Manhattan 30th Street Heliport. They called for the elimination of non-essential helicopter rides, like the one that Cuomo took. Before he became president, Joe Biden was known as “Amtrak Joe.” He regularly commuted from his delaware home to Washington, d.C., via Amtrak for decades. Why couldn’t Cuomo emulate Biden? Forget the helicopter trips to and from Albany to the Big Apple. Lead by example. He should show his support for transit just like Biden and become “Amtrak Andrew.” LARRY PENNER Great Neck Larry Penner is a transportation advocate, historian and writer who previously worked for the Federal Transit Administration Region 2 NY Office.
