Candidates gather endorsements in 2nd C.D. as race heats up By J.D. FREDA jfreda@liherald.com

State Assemblyman Andrew Garbarino, the Republican candidate for the seat in the 2nd Congressional District, has been a candidate in four elections, and never lost. His perfect record led him to believe he had a surefire game plan for representing the South Shore. But this year is different for the Sayville native. Unlike previ-

ous campaigns, Garbarino, 35, hasn’t been able to go out and meet his potential constituents. He hasn’t been able to shake their hands or walk the campaign trail to ask them to support his campaign. In the June primary, it didn’t matter. He corralled almost 64 percent of the vote, effectively crushing the upstart challenger Michael LiPetri. “We performed well everywhere,” Garbarino said. “We didn’t lose a town. Whether it was

Islip, Babylon, Hempstead, Oyster Bay, we didn’t lose one town. It was good to come out of primaries with big wins in those areas, but also to come away with the endorsement of LiPetri.” With that endorsement, Garbarino has secured the support of every Republican and Conservative in the district. Many Suffolk County elected officials also announced their backing, and in CONTINUED ON PAGE 16

GRADUATES SHOWED OFF their beautifully decorated caps.

MacArthur seniors in one last sendoff By J.D. FREDA

jfreda@liherald.com

The General Douglas MacArthur High School Class of 2020 has endured a lot this school year. As their quite unusual year began to wane, the Levittown School District organized a multitude of socially-distanced events to celebrate the seniors and their accomplishments. On July 27, though, the Class of 2020 Generals officially marked the end of their high school careers. The school hosted seven abbreviated commencement ceremonies, all adhering to state guidelines and regulations. Surrounded by family, administration, staff and board of education members, the seniors walked off the field at the Levittown Memorial Education Center having attended their last school function as high school students. Dressed in blue caps and gowns, each graduate sat with two family members, all were stationed a regulation six feet apart from their classmates. Following the national anthem, Principal Joseph Sheehan spoke about the extraordinary class seated in front of him. “The Class of 2020 is leaving us this year with perhaps one of the most poignant send-offs that any of us can recall,” he said. “You entered this world as we were still reeling from the terror attacks of September 11th. During your time at Salk Middle School, you experienced the loss of a beloved classmate and friend, Lorenzo Fernandez, and made Team 20 live in our hearts forever. From all this, you have been forced to grow up quickly and you are no longer just children. You have faced loss and disappointment and dealt with it with the maturity and passion that is truly admirable.” Superintendent of Schools Dr. Tonie McDonald acknowledged the graduates who will be serving in the military and gifted the Class of 2020 with a rock garden. Graduates all received rocks with their names on them. In addition, valedictorian Evan Peters and salutatorian Jason Maynard addressed their peers during the ceremonies. Maynard encouraged the graduates to do something impactful with their lives and discussed the importance of overcoming adversity. Peters reflected on the Class of 2020’s achievements and inspired his peers to think positively about the future. “Even though the world can sometimes seem out of place, there is always a silver lining waiting to be discovered,” he said. “Don’t forget the good that can be done by actively spreading positivity in your community and your world.”

MSSN plans health care center in Wantagh Mount Sinai South Nassau, in partnership with Mount Sinai Doctors, will completely refurbish a 60,000-square-foot building in Wantagh and open a state-ofthe-art medical facility that will provide multi-specialty health care services and advanced medical diagnostics to better serve the South Shore of Long Island. The new facility, located in a former Verizon building on Wantagh Avenue, will provide critically needed medical care for residents of Long Island—including the communities of Seaford, Wantagh, Amityville, Babylon, Bellmore, Bethpage, East Meadow, Hicksville, Levittown, Lindenhurst, Massapequa, Massapequa Park, Merrick, Roosevelt and Uniondale — while bringing new jobs and economic activity to a shuttered site. The four-story building will bring specialty care directly to eastern Nassau County and will include the latest in infection control measures in the Covid19 era to ensure patient, staff, and community safety. The project cost includes a $35 million investment by Mount Sinai South Nassau and the Mount Sinai Health System. The facility, projected to open in 2022, will allow families seamless access to high-quality specialty care, right in their local community, while providing highskill jobs and economic opportunity to a location that has been vacant for more than five years. Clinical programs planned for the location include an oncology center, a digestive health center, a cardiovascular care center, a women’s health center and a diabetes care center, as well as orthopedics, neurology, imaging and laboratory services. “This facility represents the future of health care. An array of services all will be under one roof so patients are not ping-ponged from one medical office to another while seeking treatment,” said Richard J. Murphy, president and chief executive officer of Mount Sinai South Nassau. “It will offer high-quality specialty and diagnostic services in a one-stopshopping setting for patients in an area of the South Shore that we believe will benefit from greater access to additional specialty services.” Mount Sinai South Nassau is planning to hold an online public Zoom meeting on Tuesday, August 11, at 6 p.m. to discuss the

The building has been designed with a hospital-grade air filtration system and with space planning guidelines to reduce the possibility of infection. Expanded elevators are to be installed to allow for proper social distancing, while entryways and restrooms will feature touchless and motion control sensors. The entire facility will be used for medical services. The patient-centered interior design will feature approximately 50 comfortably furnished private patient examination and consultation rooms. There will also be nonclinical space, such as waiting areas and administrative areas, as well as mechanical space. Plans also include refurbishing the exterior of the facility to complement the aesthetics of the Wantagh business district and community. Mount Sinai South Nassau is being assisted at the Wantagh site by Simone Development Companies, which will act as construction managers for the project. Simone oversaw construction of a similar Mount Sinai Doctors facility in Greenlawn on the North Shore that has received

high marks from patients, health care providers, and community leaders. As a result of discussions with local elected officials and community leaders from the Wantagh area, the Mount Sinai South Nassau team made several changes to its original design plan, including increased parking and traffic flow adjustments to ease any impact on the local neighborhood. The building site includes a parking area with ample secured parking for staff and patients only. The new medical office building in Wantagh is strictly an ambulatory site with no overnight hospital beds and will not receive emergency ambulances via the 911 system. Behavioral health or drug treatment services are not planned for this location. “This model of health care delivery ensures patients can receive the care they need, close to home, without having to travel. A mother, for instance, can schedule her annual well-woman’s visit on the same day as her annual mammogram and have lab work completed at the same time. And cancer patients can receive chemotherapy close to home,” said Chief Medical Officer and Executive Vice President for Medical Affairs Dr. Adhi Sharma. “This facility will feature the latest advancements in health care design and

infection control to ensure patient, staff and community safety. We look forward to offering our services in this area.” Initially, the hours of operation for most clinical services will be between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. Monday-Friday. Hours on select weekday evenings and on Saturdays may be phased in over time, as warranted by patients’ demand. “This new facility will greatly benefit Wantagh and the entire South Shore,” said Joseph Fennessy, the volunteer Chairman of Mount Sinai South Nassau’s Board of Directors and a long-time Wantagh resident. “Our neighbors will be able to receive quality, comprehensive care, close to home. Mount Sinai South Nassau and Mount Sinai Doctors build and operate their facilities at the highest standards, so this should be a welcome asset for Wantagh.” Aside from the convenience of providing comprehensive health care at one location, the facility is expected to have an economic benefit. It is located just around the corner from Sunrise Highway and close to the Wantagh Parkway and Seaford-Oyster Bay Expressway, and Mount Sinai South Nassau officials project that this location will facilitate job creation and contribute tangible economic activity to the Wantagh business district.

RCI to premiere three publications in August Richner Communications Inc., publisher of Herald Community Newspapers, is launching three new monthly publications in August to help local businesses get the word out about all they do — Living Large and LI Prime/ Long Island’s Prime Focus. Living Large, which will launch Aug. 14, is a broadsheet — the width and length of The New York Times — offering an oversized tablet for display advertising. It will be mailed to 10,000 homes and businesses in each of the five communities where it is published, and will be printed with bright white covers. For advertisers, covers are nearly sold out. LI Prime and Long Island Prime Focus are RCI’s new monthly shopping and specialty guides. Each month, LI Prime will promote local stores, restaurants, real estate agencies and doctors’ offices. Long Island’s Prime Focus will feature a guide focused on the best deals and businesses in a specific area of interest, such as back to school, real estate, home improvement and dining, with the premiere issue highlighting health and fitness. LI Prime and Long Island’s Prime Focus will be found in one, magazinesize publication — flip over the book to move from LI Prime to Long Island’s Prime Focus, and vice versa. The publications are set to launch this week. When mailed, the new publications will go to virtually every home in the Five Towns, Lynbrook-East Rockaway, Oceanside-Island Park, Rockville Centre and Valley Stream. For more information on these publications, call Rhonda Glickman, RCI vice president of sales, at (516) 569-4000, ext. 250, or email her at rglickman@liherald. com, or call Lori Berger, sales manager for digital and specialty products, at (516) 569-4000, ext. 228, or email her at lberger@liherald.com. “I’m so excited to be launching three new products,” Glickman said. “Living Large is a spectacular broadsheet publication priced so that even the smallest business can afford to advertise. It’s big and beautiful and mailed to your home. Seeing your ad on a large space only enhances its beauty.” “A very special feature of both new publications,” Berger said, “is that they are both being mailed to over 10,000 homes and businesses monthly in all of the communities we are launching these publications. This gives so many residents and community leaders the opportunity to peruse these informative new publications.” Ellen Reynolds, RCI’s classified advertising manager, said she was giving out samples of the new publications in Oceanside this past weekend, and local shop owners were interested. “But it was the customers,” Reynolds said, “who were also fasinated. They seemed truly excited they would get three new publications each month with local ads delivered to their homes through the mail. “One customer couldn’t get over how beautiful Living Large was and didn’t believe me that they would be getting a publication the size of The New York

“I’m thrilled about the design of the new publications. It offers a cleaner, more modern, fresher look in a bigger format. Our Living Large broadsheet publication is so huge and well designed that it’s impossible not to notice every ad.”

American Red Cross needs hurricane volunteers The American Red Cross in Greater New York is seeking up to a thousand volunteers to be part of its inaugural Hurricane Season Reserve Corps, a new, trained group of team members ready to support affected communities in the event of a major disaster in the region. This large number of reserve volunteers is needed because of the added constraints caused by Covid-19 and the projected intensity of the 2020 Atlantic hurricane season, which will run through Nov. 30, peaking in August and September. “The coronavirus pandemic will make it challenging to deploy trained disaster volunteers from other parts of the country should an emergency occur. In light of this, the Red Cross is asking you to be ready to help your community,” said Susan Rounds, interim CEO of the American Red Cross in Greater New York. “Train now to be a Red Cross volunteer and answer the call to help if the need arises here in our region.” For more information, go to redcross. org/volunteertoday. Scroll down to find the Shelter and Disaster Health Services roles, which comprise the Hurricane Season Reserve Corps. The greater New York region includes New York City, Long Island, Rockland and Westchester counties, and Greenwich, Conn. Positions are available across New Jersey and New York state as well.

The AmericAn red Cross in Greater New York needs up to a thousand volunteers to help staff its shelters in the event of a hurricane. There is a special need for volunteers to support sheltering efforts. To help keep people safe during the ongoing coronavirus crisis, the Red Cross has put in place additional precautions and developed special training for its workforce. The Red Cross needs volunteers to help staff shelter reception, registration, feeding, dor-

mitory, information collection and other vital tasks. Associate and supervisory positions are available. All necessary training (minimum three hours) is provided virtually. In the event of a disaster mobilization individual shifts for this role are 12 hours. If you are a nurse, doctor, paramedic,

emergency medical technician or physician’s assistant with a current and unencumbered license, the Red Cross needs your support. Volunteers are needed in shelters to help assess people’s health. Daily observation and health screening for Covid-19-like illness among shelter residents may also be required. Nurses supervise all clinical tasks. Roles are also available for certified nursing assistants, certified home health aides, student nurses and medical students. The Red Cross needs volunteers who can provide care as delegated by a licensed nurse in shelters. This could include assisting with activities of daily living, personal assistance services, providing health education and helping to replace medications, durable medical equipment or consumable medical supplies. All necessary training (minimum five hours) is provided virtually. In the event of a disaster mobilization, individual shifts for these roles are 12 hours. Be sure to review the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidance for people who are at higher risk for severe illness, consult your health care provider and follow local guidance. The Red Cross’s top priority is the health and safety of its employees, volunteers and the people whom it serves, agency officials said.

WHAT’S UP NEXT DOOR AND AROUND THE CORNER

Wantagh Library to host a conversation with author Amy Meyerson Many people have picked up a new hobby or two while stuck inside their homes for the majority of this year. The Wantagh Public Library reopened earlier this summer, encouraging community members to dive into a good story or two. But that is not the only thing the library is offering. Along with small outdoor, socially distanced young adult events, the library will be holding a virtual talk with author Amy Meyerson on August 13, from 7-8 p.m. on Zoom. Her most recent book, “The Imperfects” was published on April 20. The novel follows a trio of estranged siblings who are forced to reconnect after the death of family matriarch, Helen. Their lives quickly take a turn down an unpredictable road, when the three find that the Florentine Diamond, a 137-carat yellow gemstone, is included in a secret inheritance among Helen’s earthly possessions. The real-world Florentine Diamond is a gemstone of Indian origin that disappeared from the Austrian Empire during World War I. Meyerson’s interest in gemology and history influenced her decision to include the gem into her most recent work. “I had done some Internet research and knew of some other famous gemstones that had gone missing. But there is so much mystery surrounding this stone, how it went missing, and how there is the mystery of its history before it went missing,” Meyerson said. “Something else I realized as I was talking to jewelry experts and historians is, they didn’t know much about the diamond either.” The author also draws inspiration from intrigue in personal family heirlooms that have been passed down to her. “I was given a cocktail ring by my mother,” Meyerson said, reflecting on the quartz and garnet heirloom. “It was passed down in my family. It came from Venezuela, where my mother’s family escaped Europe from the Holocaust.” Meyerson, who has done extensive research on her family since then, also learned that her great-grandmother on her father’s side left Hungary for the United States after World War I “This book had a lot of my different interests: World War I and II; history; and gemology. There is a court case in the center of the book that has to do with cultural heritage law,” Meyerson said. “I got to talk to a lot of really fun experts, which I will go over in my talk. One of my goals in writing is to always keep it entertaining.” Registration is open for the meeting. Visit wantaghlibrary.org and click on the Events tab to sign up.

Football camps delayed until Sept. 21 By TONY BELLISSIMO tbellissimo@liherald.com

Eliminating scrimmages and one round of playoffs are the only changes so far in place for Nassau County football, which moved 2020 season kickoff plans to Saturday, Oct. 3 after the New York State Public High School Athletic Association (NYSPHSAA) announced a monthlong delay for fall sports on July 16. If no alternative guidance is received from the NYSPHSAA COVID-19 Task Force, fall athletes will begin practicing Monday, Sept. 21, four weeks later than the original date of Aug. 24. For football, 10 practices are mandatory before games can be played. “I’m actually happy for the delay,” said Section VIII football coordinator Matt McLees, who noted keeping the regular season schedule intact was a priority. “I thought the news would have been worse,” he added. “I don’t think we are out of the woods yet though for the fall. But for now, we have hope.” The original opening date for games was Thursday, Sept. 17. Freeport (Conference I), Garden City (II), Plainedge (III) and Seaford (IV) are the defending county champions. All four are seeded No. 1 in their respective conferences for the upcoming season. Freeport, which has captured back-to-back Long Island Class I titles, opens at home against Uniondale. “The fact we’re even talking about having a season is pretty positive, but nobody knows anything for sure,” said Baldwin head coach Steve Carroll, whose 10thseeded Bruins are scheduled to open the Conference I campaign at home against Hicksville. “As a coach, I’d love to see a season happen as long as everyone can be safe doing it,” he added. Oceanside, seeded No. 2 behind Freeport, will host Hempstead in Week 1. East Meadow, back in the top conference after one season in II, travels to Massapequa. “As a state we’ve done a great job getting the Covid numbers down,” Oceanside head coach Rob Blount said. “I’m optimistic we can play in the fall, but I can also see them pushing things to 2021.” Garden City, which has won four straight county crowns, opens at New Hyde Park.

Other local Week 1 matchups in the conference has No. 3 Carey hosting No. 7 Sewanhaka, fourth-seeded South Side hosting No. 6 Valley Stream Central, No. 5 Mepham at home against No. 12 Kennedy, and No. 11 Calhoun visiting No. 10 Long Beach. “I’m glad the fall season is still a possibility,” said VSC head coach Mike Rubino, who conducts Zoom meetings with his players four days a week. “I’m happy New York State is letting the process play out and didn’t jump to any conclusions.” Plainedge, which nipped Freeport in the 2019 Rutgers Cup voting, kicks off at Division. Seaford opens at home against Cold Spring Harbor in a battle of the past two Conference IV champs. McLees said the regular season would conclude Saturday, Nov. 21, and the number of playoff teams in each of Nassau’s four conferences has been cut in half, from eight to four. The semifinals are scheduled for Nov. 26-28, followed by the county championship games Dec. 5-6. The L.I. title games will not be held.

Eight teams switch conferences

Of the eight programs taking on new conference rivals in 2020, half were part of Conference III a year ago. Runner-up South Side jumps to Conference II, while perennial powers Wantagh and Lawrence, along with North Shore, bounced to Conference IV. New to Conference III are Manhasset and Valley Stream South.

OCEANSIDE QUARTERBACK CHARLIE McKee, a rising junior, has thrown for more than 5,000 yards and 50 touchdowns over his first two varsity seasons. East Meadow and Herricks are back in familiar stomping grounds in Conference I after competing in Conference II in 2019.

JV remains on Saturday mornings

The majority of Nassau’s junior varsity football games in 2018 kicked off Monday afternoons, but last year the action returned to traditional Saturday morn-

ings at the opposite location of that day’s varsity game. It’ll remain that way for 2020. Should any freshmen, sophomores or juniors not step on the JV field on a particular Saturday morning, they would be eligible to play in the varsity game. “There’s also a mechanism in place where if both schools agree to move the JV game to Monday afternoon, they can do so,” McLees said.

e closed the schools in our district a few days before [Gov. Andrew Cuomo] ordered the statewide pause, because we had a couple of positive cases. The protocol at the time was to close the schools if we had any positives, disinfect everything and then reopen. We expected to reopen the following week, but the order went out to close [on March 17]. Nobody knew anything. We didn’t know how long we’d be closed at that point, or how serious the virus was. We don’t really know that much more now, and that’s what makes planning for the various contingencies so challenging. Of course, we want to reopen. We think that’s the best thing for everybody — for the students and teachers, and for the parents, too. Among other things, they need to go to work. But kids learn better in a classroom setting. We want to keep our children safe — that’s the most important thing. But it’s just healthier for them from a social-emotional standpoint if they can work in together, be with their friends and develop those relationships. So we hope we’ll be able to go back into the classroom full time, and we should get an answer from the state in a week or so. But we’re also prepared for a combination of classroom and distance learning. And if the infection rates go back up — to 9 percent or higher — we’ll have to go back to distance learning. Nobody wants that, but it’s a fluid situation. We have to be prepared for anything.

uring the pandemic, we saw a lot less business so we wanted to help out by donating meals to front-line workers. At the request of many people in our community wanting to find ways to help us while helping those on the front lines, we decided to open donations to all so we could continue to deliver meals to our heroes. I have to thank the community for helping us send 2,500 meals over two months. We’ve taken a hit shutting down our dining rooms. Takeout was good, but it’s not enough to cover our overhead costs. We kept the same menu throughout the pandemic and added a special takeout option for families of four. That was really popular on Mother’s Day and Father’s Day. We created an outdoor dining section and sectioned it off with a wooden fence. It’s decorated with palm trees, and we have live music about three times a week. It definitely doesn’t feel like you’re sitting in a parking lot in East Meadow. We could usually seat 180. Now, we’re operating at two-thirds capacity. We could seat 40 outdoors, 40 in the back room and 40 in the main room. I was disappointed to hear about [Nassau Coliseum] closing. With the coronavirus, the whole world has changed, so it’s not surprising. We always relied on getting a big crowd after an Islanders game. But we survived the last time the Coliseum was shut down and we could do it again. I’m trying to take it one day at a time and think positively.

ChaPlaiN, seaford aMeriCaN leGioN ith the different organizations in the community, this really affected us from the start. When we closed at the American Legion, we had a St. Patrick’s Day party planned. The day before, we had to cancel. We also had to cancel Seaford Historical Society meetings. On Memorial Day, we had a small celebration at the American Legion with just a few officers outside, because we wanted to commemorate the day. For the Lions Club, we had a big problem because we were supposed to have our big golf outing fundraiser in September, and that has been canceled. We’ve missed out on a lot of fundraising because of this. Thank God I received the $5,000 [for a humanitarian award in July] to give to St. William’s. Everything I’m involved in, the social ministry, all of it, we want to help the community. A lot of things we do in life, we do gathered around the dinner table. The Lions Club, American Legion meetings, we gather around the table like that, and I know people are craving to go back to that. It’s been tough. Kids haven't experienced their prom; their graduation was different. I was basically in the house for 100 days straight. At 78, I wasn’t taking any chances, but I’m lucky to be healthy. But I’m happy that I see people in Seaford wearing masks and social distancing. This is a special community.

Grand Reopening

w

hen the pandemic broke out, we instantly made the decision to close down our in-person ministry and services. We went into an internet-based ministry in order to connect to parishioners via either Zoom or on YouTube and Facebook livestreaming. As a pastor, I also called people who needed personal service and personal attention. Whenever a visit was necessary, we took all of the precautions. The school and the church services closed in March, and we didn’t open until New York state started reopening. When we reopened, we allowed only one household at a time, and we made appointments only for people who lived in the same household. It was a challenge of re-inventing our ministry. I’ve been a priest for 23 years, and one of the most effective parts of pastoral work is to be close to the person physically. When that was taken out as a possibility, we had to reinvent the way we interacted with people. But we are surrounded by amazing people whose efforts made it possible to help people even with the restrictions. First and foremost is the health and safety of every parishioner. Thankfully, nobody got infected because of church service. The only people who had been infected in our parish were infected after services had been closed for weeks, and it was not in the vicinity of the church. So that was a good thing to protect the people from this terrible pandemic.

August 6, 2020 — SEAFORD HERALD CITIZEN

A fatal boating accident took place on Saturday, Aug. 1, in Freeport Creek, just off of the coast of Cow Meadow Park & Preserve. The Wantagh Fire Department reported Saturday that it had responded to the incident, which they deemed to be a “collision between two boats.” 25-year-old Freeport resident Jorge Soto was killed in the crash. Six other people were reported injured. The Wantagh Fire Department, along with departments from Freeport and Merrick, the Nassau County Police Marine Bureau, U.S. Coast Guard Station at Jones Beach and Sea Tow, an international marine assistance provider headquartered in Southold, all responded to the call. Wantagh Marine 1 conducted shoreline and barrier searches while Wantagh Rescue 6915 provided medical transport. At press time, the second boat had not yet been identified. Investigations were ongoing.

A DEADLY BOAT crash occurred on Aug. 1 in Freeport Creek just off of Cow Meadow Park & Preserve.

Seaford, Wantagh slow to go back to work CONTINUED FROM FRONT PAGE pandemic bonus over-generous. In a webinar hosted by Seaford Democratic State Sen. John Brooks two weeks ago, one attendee asked if Brooks was aware of any move to end the benefit, saying it was an obstacle to finding qualified employees, because workers could make more by collecting a combination of unemployment plus the pandemic bonus than by taking jobs. “That may be true in some parts of the country,” said Uri Barasch, president of the U.S. division of Adia Works, a staffing agency specializing in temporary positions like blue-collar, data entry and skilled trades. But in the Northeast, where the cost of living is high, even if workers receive maximum benefits, including the pandemic bonus, the total is still less than a living wage would be, Barasch said. Because it is a federal program, state and local officials have relatively little influence on its continuation or cancellation, but Brooks emphasized the critical role the federal government will need to play in any recovery. New York’s state Constitution prohibits deficit spending, he said. “The scale of the crisis is beyond what we can do as a state,” he added. “Without help from

the federal government, we don’t really know what kind of programs we can put together.” Getting people back to work safely was a critical first step toward economic recovery, Brooks said, and the experience of the past four months showed

that working from home could be a viable model for many more workers than had been considered possible or desirable before the pandemic. It could help with staffing issues in jobs like lower-level technology or office work, Barasch said, because “fear of the

virus is at least as big a factor in keeping people from taking jobs” as the pandemic bonus. “They want to stay home. They’re afraid the working conditions may be unsafe in places where they’re exposed to a lot of people.” In New York, the maximum unemployment benefit is $504 per week. Even when combined with the pandemic payment, it would still be less than the average county salary of $61,000, according to the Curran/Bellone report, and far less than Nassau’s $108,000 median salary — and both benefits are subject to federal and state income tax. In addition, the bonus was only funded for 14 weeks Barasch pointed out. “Even if it gets renewed, it’s not a longterm solution,” he said. Sixty-eight percent of local job losses were for positions paying less than the county average, according to the Curran/Bellone report. A survey of job openings on indeed. com for the week ending Aug. 1 showed that of the 41,000 non-farming jobs advertised within a 25-mile radius of Seaford and Wantagh, only 4.4 percent paid at least $60,000 a year; 28 percent paid $40,000 or less; and 43 percent paid no more than $30,000.

Garbarino focuses on local issues in 2nd C.D. CONTINUED FROM FRONT PAGE Nassau County and the Town of Hempstead, the list of endorsements includes State Assemblymen John Mikulin and Dave McDonough; County Legislators Steven D. Rhoads, Thomas McKevitt and John R. Ferretti Jr.; and Town Supervisor Donald X. Clavin Jr., Councilmen Dennis Dunne Sr. and Christopher Carini, Clerk Kate Murray and Receiver of Taxes Jeanine C. Driscoll. But the most influential name on the list for Garbarino is the man he aims to succeed, 14-term Seaford Republican Peter King. “I am delighted to support Andrew Garbarino to represent the good people of Long Island,” King said in a statement. “These hard-working citizens need a strong advocate who will put their interests over politics and fight hard against the extreme progressive left policies of Congressional Democrats. That is what I have always done, and I know Andrew will, too.” Garbarino said that one issue he will focus on early is “restoring law and order” and supporting law enforcement. He added that King has been a proponent of law and order for many years in Congress. The 2nd C.D. spans parts of Nassau and Suffolk counties and includes all of Seaford and most of Wantagh. Clavin was adamant that Garbarino was the right choice to represent a portion of the town of Hempstead. “Assemblyman Andrew Garbarino is a qualified and strong leader who has shown his ability to deliver for Long

CONGRESSIONAL CANDIDATE ANDREW Garbarino, 35, of Bayport, has gained the support of all Republican and Conservative elected officials in the 2nd District. Island families,” Clavin said in a statement. “In the Assembly, he has worked to protect our environment, supported small business, provided more resources for our veterans, passed middle-class tax cuts and stands firmly with our men and women in law enforcement. I look forward to working with him in Congress to help America’s largest township continue to be one of the best places to live, work and raise a

family on Long Island.” Endorsements continued to come in for Garbarino, a George Washington University and Hofstra Law School alumnus. “The New York State Troopers endorsement just came in today,” he told the Herald on July 30. “The unions that were with me in the primaries are also sticking with me in the general.” He also recently met with Nassau and Suffolk County detectives unions

to vie for their support as well. Former President Barack Obama, meanwhile, announced his support for the Democratic candidate in the race, Jackie Gordon, on Monday. Obama included Gordon in a list of Democratic candidates across the country whom he will support in November. Gordon was one of six candidates in New York to receive Obama’s backing. “I’m proud to endorse this diverse and hopeful collection of thoughtful, empathetic and highly qualified Democrats,” he wrote in a Twitter post. Although he is eyeing a move from Albany to Washington, D.C., Garbarino insists that his focus will stay local. “Most voters care about their own district first,” he told the Herald. “They don’t want their congressperson to get swallowed up in national politics. They don’t care, and don’t want their congressperson going there and getting involved in the international issues. They want them going down there to fight to make their day-to-day lives better.” He added, “Look, I’m just like you guys. I want a better life for you and your family. I want to make sure that people can still go to the beach. I want to make sure families stay safe, can drink the water, can get to work every day, avoid potholes. That’s where we have to focus. “There are 435 members of Congress,” he continued. “I might be the only one that doesn’t want to be president. I don’t have these grand plans to become president or secretary of state. I’m doing this because I think it’s the right thing to do, and I really think I could do a good job.”

SEAFORD HERALD CITIZEN — August 6, 2020

HERALD


Up against one-sizeHERALD fits-all zoning Q. Our architect showed something in our house

plans that our contractor refuses to do, and we need an opinion. For some reason, the architect wants the new floor for our new second story to be built in between our existing ceiling beams and not over it, like the contractor wants. He called it “jumping the box.” The architect says that if he put the new floor above the existing ceiling structure, the house would Ask The either be too high or our attic Architect would be too low to even use. We want to put our utilities there to save room in our basement, so the attic is very important. Does anyone really care if the house is 10 inches taller?

A. This is the age-old

dilemma of reality versus regulation. The architect onte eeper will never get your plans approved if he or she can’t show the height at the code-compliant level while also trying to find the solution to making sure you have a workable attic height for all the boiler and cooling equipment. The contactor could care less about the code if it can be avoided and wants to make the job simpler, easier, faster and more profitable by building over existing ceiling joists, which are generally too weak for people to furnish over or walk around on. Since the whole system is set up to never punish builders for defying the rules, and actually enables and encourages them to do so, you’ll go down a much longer, more frustrating road to complete your project. The real problem is that you’re in a community that has a one-size-fits-all set of zoning requirements that has not been adjusted to real-world conditions. While many municipalities have recognized that living space is much more expensive than it was two generations ago, when the rules were adopted, your town prefers to keep things the way they are and forces homeowners to spend more money and take many more months of added time to appeal to a zoning board over this simple and practical problem of 10 inches more height. Adding to the conflict, contactors often bypass the whole issue and ignore the plans, setting off a downward spiral when the stairs have to be longer and don’t fit, so rooms get moved back, the structure load paths change, floors sag, the house is higher, but the contractor doesn’t realize or possibly care that he or she has left you with a stunning problem that everyone else involved tries to solve. In the end, the contractor succeeds, the municipality gets more of the money you hoped would be spent on your project, your architect is thrown under the bus for trying to balance the permit process versus construction, and many people say, “If I’d known it would be this difficult, I would just as soon have moved to a place where the taxes are lower and there’s more freedom to do what I want.” If you find that place, let me know.

OPINIONS

he June New York state primary produced many shocking results. A number of entrenched incumbents were ousted, and a handful of progressive candidates managed to beat party-endorsed candidates. But stories calling the election results a major shift to the left by the Democratic Party are just plain false. The coronavirus pandemic has caused great turmoil in our daily lives. It also had a dramatic impact on the primary. On April 20, Gov. Andrew Cuomo issued an executive order requirJERRY ing the state KREMER Board of Elections to send absentee ballot applications to all registered voters. That was a gift to every challenger. In a normal election year, citizens tend to be indifferent about the voting process. Most people won’t take the extra time to get an absentee ballot, even though they’re readily available on the internet. But thanks to the governor, every registered voter got an application to vote absentee, which resulted in millions of ballots, some of which are still

I

being counted. For many years, incumbent elected leaders would ask their loyal supporters to fill out absentee ballots, while their opponents generally ignored this process. This time, with voters confined to their homes, the challengers mounted strong telephone campaigns, urging potential voters to send in their ballot requests. Many incumbents, distracted by their official duties or maybe just a little cocky, didn’t match the aggressiveness of their challengers. Another factor in the defeat of some current Democratic office holders was their opponents’ use of social media. Potential voters were housebound, spending a lot of time on their computers, and they were easier to reach by smart challengers. Many of the incumbents haven’t mastered this strategy, and were caught off guard by their challengers’ aggressive campaigning. Geography had a lot to do with some of the upsets. Districts that had been safe for incumbents have been changing rapidly. There has been a lot of movement into communities with available hous-

D

ing, and overconfident politicians ignored those population shifts. One losing incumbent recently lamented, “I didn’t realize how much my district has changed.” Party leaders won’t admit that they are losing their influence, but neither political party has the clout that it had in the past. Once upon a time when the party endorsed a candidate, he or she was a sure winner. But in some of the districts where there were serious contests, the party leaders couldn’t deliver the votes. One result that has received a lot of media attention was the defeat of U.S. Rep. Elliot Engel, the current chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee. Engel held the 16th Congressional District seat for over 30 years, and obviously became overconfident, thanks to a history of weak opponents. During the height of the coronavirus crises, as he had over the years, Engel spent much of his time in Washington, and with a tough challenger, voters punished him for his absence. One race in which a progressive newcomer triumphed is a good example of what happens when there are too many

istracted by their official duties or perhaps just a little cocky, many incumbents didn’t match the aggressiveness of their challengers.

candidates running. In the 17th C.D., which covers a portion of Westchester and Rockland counties, the winner, Mondaire Jones, got 47 percent of the vote. Some seven other candidates got a total of 51 percent. Did the progressives dominate the primary day roster of winners? The answer is no. Twenty incumbents won their contests by wide margins. On Long Island, U.S. Rep. Tom Suozzi won 56 percent of the vote, compared with challenger Melanie D’Arrigo’s 32 percent. Incumbents who took their challengers seriously managed to hold on and win. This year’s primary holds many lessons for candidates. If you’re an incumbent, the moral of the story is that you’d better spend more time in your district and learn to master the challenges of the internet to survive. Like it or not, you’re an endangered species. As for challengers, hopefully there won’t soon be another coronavirus that will interfere with the electoral process, and you won’t get the same breaks.

Double mitzvahs in a one-horse mountain town

f there is any topic guaranteed to irritate readers more than politics, it’s religion, but here goes a true story. In the innocent days before the plague of Covid-19, my daughter and son-in-law moved to a rural mountain town in the high Sierra of the American West. Let’s call it One Horse. There they settled into a life at one with nature, hiking the high trails, kayaking the rivers and camping in the RANDI hills. KREISS Both of them are Jewish by birth, and embrace the practices and traditions that are meaningful for them. I have been at their home during Rosh Hashana, for example, and, after hunting down a brisket and other holiday goodies, we enjoyed a meal with the couple of other Jewish people who live within 20 or 30 miles. When the grandkids approached age 13, they said they wanted to pursue the education necessary to become bar and bat mitzvah, and officially be welcomed as adults in the Jewish community.

They did it their way, even if it wasn’t entirely kosher. A family friend, Rabbi Eddie, who went to Lawrence High School with me, suggested a b’nai mitzvah, conducting one service for both kids, even though my granddaughter would be a little younger than the traditional 13, and my grandson would be a little older. It seemed practical. In the beginning, my daughter drove the kids to a synagogue an hour and a half away for their lessons, but that quickly became a nightmare of snowstorms and exhaustion. Rabbi Eddie suggested going virtual. So my daughter contacted Rabbi Anna, who married her and her husband 18 years ago in another mountain town in Vermont. Honestly, it was meant to be. Rabbi Anna, a sunbeam of a woman, took on the education of the grandkids and met with them online over the past year, teaching, singing, listening and imparting to them the ethics and values associated with living an honorable life. She taught them the connection between being a good Jew and being a good human being in the world. The kids learned the Hebrew prayers, studied

T

their Torah portions, and wrote their own speeches about what this rite of passage means to them. My mitzvah project with my grandson was to read and discuss “All American Boys,” by Jason Reynolds and Brendan Kiely. My granddaughter and I read “The Diary of Anne Frank.” In Plan A, the family was going to travel to One Horse in July to participate in the mitzvahs; even Rabbi Anna was ready to fly out for the celebration. The ceremony would take place down by the river, followed by a party on the banks, catered by local food trucks. Then the pandemic upset the plans, grounded all travelers and forced us into a Zoom version of the One Horse b’nai mitzvah. The grandkids were outstanding. They wore prayer shawls once worn by their grandfather and great-grandfather. Their accomplishment was impressive, considering just a year of study. I recited a prayer for peace. My husband said a blessing. The kids chanted in Hebrew, and for me, their young voices echoed other voices from ages ago. My granddaughter said in her speech that she had grown in many ways over

this year, including physically, one and a half inches. My grandson said he hoped the Jewish presence in his town would lead to increased diversity and the welcoming of others. He said he was happy to share the occasion with his sister, noting that it is only since 1922 that women have been welcomed to become bat mitzvah in some Jewish communities. Sixty people Zoomed in, many curious friends who had no idea what to expect. The atmosphere was serious and respectful. The rest of us were family from around the country. Some raised their own silver prayer cups; some showed off gorgeous challahs they had baked. We watched the service, trying to read everyone’s expression, yearning for real contact, yet gratified that this technology allowed us to participate at all. The day seemed iconic of our moment in this time. We are all stressed by distance from those we love and too much isolation. But the losses are mitigated by the willingness of people to find creative compromise. Our grandkids were the first children to become bar and bat mitzvah in One Horse. An interesting, odd and, to us, magnificent distinction. Copyright 2020 Randi Kreiss. Randi can be reached at randik3@aol.com.

Mr. Trump, suburbia needs solutions, not tweets

P

resident Trump claimed last week that he is protecting suburbanites from low-income housing projects, tweeting on July 29: I am happy to inform all of the people living their Suburban Lifestyle Dream that you will no longer be bothered or financially hurt by having low income housing built in your neighborhood . . .” Clearly, Trump is out of touch with suburban America. In Nassau County, no new low-income housing has been built for decades. The Freeport Housing Authority recently rebuilt its Moxie Rigby apartment complex, previously a drab, red-brick structure surrounded by black chain-link fencing and set next to a heavily trafficked intersection. Now it’s a state-of-the-art building that is bright, clean and inviting. Contrary to depressing local home values, this new structure, constructed through a public-private partnership, will only improve them. Moxie Rigby aside, we haven’t seen any new public housing built here in recent years, largely because of the prohibitive costs, particularly the high land values. Instead, the federal Department of Housing and Urban Development issues Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers, which, in theory, allow low-income residents, seniors and the disabled to rent the homes they want. Two problems: One, there are relatively few rental units in Nassau compared with New York City and Westchester. Two, the rents are often exorbitantly expensive, far in excess of what the federal voucher program provides for. Section 8 voucher recipients thus tend to concentrate in Nassau’s

LETTERS In defense of Kreiss and Kremer To the Editor: Both Randi Kreiss and Jerry Kremer were criticized in recent letters to the editor for neglecting to criticize Gov. Andrew Cuomo for his decision to return Covid-19 patients to nursing homes while criticizing how President Trump has handled this crisis. The differences in how these two men have handled their responsibilities is important in understanding and appreciating why the resulting narratives might be different. This pandemic took everyone by surprise, although, presumably, the president had knowledge (or at least the means to have had knowledge) earlier than the rest of us. As it became clear what was happening, Cuomo acted, and communicated with New Yorkers through daily briefings. He spoke with truth about the virus, emphasizing facts over opinion, and was honest

poorest neighborhoods — often communities of color — straining local schools that struggle to keep up with services for many of the students in greatest need, perpetuating the cycle of poverty. Instead of seeking a solution, Trump is actively working to keep low-income residents — often people of color — out of the suburbs. What we need, however, is national leadership. Because of systemic racism, Black people were denied equal opportunities for safe and affordable public housing from the 1930s through the ’70s, especially in the suburbs, where the schools were better and the neighborhoods were safer. At the same time, Black people were often barred from buying homes in suburban neighborhoods, as was the case at first in Levittown after World War II. They were largely confined to inner cities or rural regions, without the most basic services, leaving them to fend for themselves. Instead of working to lift up all Americans, in particular those of color who have traditionally been marginalized, Trump is perpetuating a racist system whose roots date back to the Jim Crow Era, which lasted from the 1870s through the mid-1960s, when in many parts of the U.S. whites and Blacks remained separate, in unequal facilities. Trump also forgets — or denies — that the suburbs are no longer lily-white. They are rapidly becoming multi-racial, multiethnic and multi-cultural. Immigrants, often people of color, are increasingly moving to the suburbs. In fact, without those immigrants, the suburbs could be in deep trouble. In 2016, the Heralds undertook a year-

long investigative series titled “The Changing Face of Long Island.” Here’s what we wrote in our concluding editorial: “According to a 2015 report by the Fiscal Policy Institute, ‘New Americans on Long Island,’ immigrants now comprise 18 percent of the population and 23 percent of the workforce, accounting for 20 percent of the Island’s total economic output. “In total, there are some 526,000 foreignborn Long Islanders out of roughly 2.8 million people living in Nassau and Suffolk counties. Latin Americans make up the largest portion of the Island’s immigrant population, at 41 percent, but people come from throughout the world, including Africa, the Middle East and Asia. “There is much talk about how Long Islanders are leaving for elsewhere because of the high cost of living. The Island, however, actually saw a net gain in population because of immigration. Suffolk’s population remained largely unchanged between 2000 and 2012, while Nassau’s increased by roughly 78,500 people, according to census data.” Without the recent arrival of immigrants on Long Island, we could see steep drop-offs in locally owned businesses and the housing market. Trump should celebrate the new suburbia, not attempt to reignite tired old wars of words intended to divide people along racial and socioeconomic lines. Like it or not, Mr. President, the suburbs are not — thank goodness — what they used to be. He must recognize the new realities of the suburbs and offer sound solutions to ensure that all people, regardless of their backgrounds, are able to live out their “Suburban Lifestyle Dream.”

o single moment in medicine produces more anxiety for patients than surgery. As doctors, we work tirelessly to establish the invaluable trust needed so that patients feel comfortable undergoing what often sound like scary procedures. The anxiety levels increase exponentially when patients are confronted with the dual concerns of cancer and Covid-19. It’s true that when the pandemic arrived in New York a few months ago, public health officials made the careful decision to cancel elective surgeries JEFFREY across the region, DREBIN including some cancer procedures. At a time when our region was preparing for a surge in Covid-19 cases and didn’t have enough testing to determine the spread of the virus, it was important to take steps to preserve our ability to care for those critical cases and limit the number of people walking into hospitals. A recent analysis of data from hospitals across the country showed that preventive cancer screenings have dropped between 86 and 94 percent due to the pan-

demic. But now it’s critical that patients feel confident to resume the care they need. We still have a lot to learn about Covid19 and how it will impact our country. But one thing we already know is how to safely provide surgery to patients who need it. And nowhere is that need greater than among patients battling cancer — which waits for no crisis or pandemic — because, for the vast majority of people who have the disease, it is a greater threat to their lives than the virus. At Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, where I work, we did not make the decision to postpone cancer surgeries lightly. Our surgeons assessed which patients needed surgery right away, who could postpone it without negatively impacting their wellbeing, and whether other treatments like chemotherapy or radiation might give equivalent results. Some cancer surgeries can be postponed safely for up to a few months, but studies suggest that it’s not safe to wait longer than that, because a cancer that’s curable might progress and become incurable. At MSK we never stopped performing essential surgeries, though we did postpone some cases for which it was safe to do so.

As Covid-19 hospitalizations continue to fall across the region, all types of lifesaving cancer surgeries have been occurring for several months, and patients who had to abruptly postpone their surgeries are getting the care they need. At many hospitals around the metropolitan area, all patients are tested for Covid-19 before a hospitalization or a surgery. At my hospital, any patient who needs to be hospitalized overnight is tested every 72 hours, regardless of their initial Covid-19 status, for any changes in their results. And in the event that patients are infected, surgeons — bolstered by infectious-disease experts — are well equipped to minimize patients’ risks and are prepared to manage problems that may be virus-related. Evidence from our own institution suggests that the majority of patients who develop the virus within 30 days of a major surgical procedure do well and can usually recover as outpatients. The test detects the virus in people who are ill as well as those who are infected but do not have symptoms. Hospitals like mine are doing this extensive testing to help us avoid the risk of operating on someone who feels well but may

t’s critical that patients who have waited feel confident to resume the care they need.

LETTERS about what we would have to do to withstand the threat posed by the virus. The president, on the other hand and at the same time, dismissed it as a hoax or as a bad flu that would simply suddenly disappear. From March through June, Cuomo continued to plan and put procedures into place based on the available scientific and medical information and guidance. Mistakes were made, admitted to and corrected. During the same time period, Trump championed untested treatments contrary to medical and scientific advice. He also declined any responsibility for ensuring adequate numbers of supplies and equipment, leaving states to fend for themselves (and creating situations in which states were competing against one another for needed supplies). We now know this early resolve against a plan for federal intervention and testing was based on the political determination that the virus was most prevalent in “blue” states. The president and his supporters want to credit him for closing travel from China. Even that action, as necessary as it was, was too little, too late. For months he shunned the advice of medical experts on the benefits of face coverings, and even as the virus began to spread to “red” states, he provided venues for spread by holding large rallies. Now, with more than 150,000 deaths, he does not acknowledge his inaction, misinformation and absent leadership. Because he sidestepped his initial responsibility

then develop Covid-19-related symptoms after surgery. Surgeries for patients with the virus are done in a separate operating room, and we have isolation procedures in place so that they are never in contact of prog beat pa with non-Covid patients. To protect against the virus, hospitals ries ca shift to know we have to test more than just patients. We’re also tracking the health are jus of our staff before they come to work, and test them as needed. For those who interact directly with patients, we perform weekly testing, and only those who test negative are allowed to report to work. Following state regulations, many hospitals are limiting visitors, but they’re using technology to keep patients connected with their loved ones. At MSK, we’re providing tablets and smartphones to people who don’t have devices to help facilitate those virtual connections while they’re receiving care. In many ways, a hospital is one of the to all r cleanest, safest places a vulnerable patient can be right now.

D’Amato was right about our greatest leaders To the Editor: Al D’Amato and I rarely see eye to eye on political issues, but I thought his July 16-22 column, “Let’s learn from America’s past, not destroy it,” was spot on. I am stunned that people are just discovering that most of our founding fathers were slave owners, and that later leaders held racist views that were prevalent in their time. First, you can only honestly evaluate people in the context of the times in which they lived. Further, you should only evaluate our presidents and leaders on the balance of their service to the nation. As D’Amato pointed out, Franklin Roosevelt interned the Japanese and failed to oppose segregation — but he also led the nation through the Depression and World War II. On balance, he thus was one of the handful of our nation’s most consequential presidents. Thanks to Al for a well-argued column. DORIS MEADOWS Glen Cove
