LIRR to develop plans for electrifying Port Jefferson and central branches

BY DONNA DEEDY DONNA@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM

State Sen. Jim Gaughran (D-Northport) hands out survey cards at local rail stations and seeks commuter input.

The electrification of the Long Island Rail Road’s Port Jefferson Branch is back on the table, and government officials say they’re optimistic about the prospect, since now there’s some money to fund the idea.

New York State Sen. Jim Gaughran (D-Northport) during an informal interview May 9 at the Huntington train station, where he was personally handing out commuter surveys, said he predicts that the line will become fully electrified within the next five years.

“It’s been talked about for decades,” he said. “It’s time to make it happen.”

Currently, the branch east of Huntington uses diesel or double-decker, dual-fuel trains, that are prohibited in Manhattan. Commuters between New York City and points east of Huntington on the Port Jefferson Branch must change from diesel to electric trains, or vice versa for the reverse commute, at various junctions, typically in Huntington. The process is time consuming and inconvenient for passengers, who are often subject to inclement weather on an open platform. Electric trains would eliminate the need to change trains and would create a time-saving,

one-seat ride to Manhattan.

Gaughran, who is serving his first term in the state Senate, has been a major proponent of the MTA Rail Act, an overhaul plan, which Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) signed into law last month. New York State’s 2019-20 budget funds the overhaul and includes an expected $1.5 billion in capital projects for the Long Island Rail Road. Funds will be used for a variety of needs, but new trains and increased service are top priorities, according to Gaughran’s office.

Electrification makes sense now, Gaughran said, because it would help address both congestion at Huntington’s station, which serves 41,440 daily weekday riders, while speeding up the slow commute to New York City.

Gaughran said that he’s already taken steps to advocate for electrification. He’s also conducted mobile town halls on trains during the morning commute to solicit passenger input on all rail service issues and will present passengers comments from his surveys to railroad officials later this year.

Watermill Catering Hall requests special exception to allow a new four-story hotel. Photo from the Town of Smithtown

BY DONNA DEEDY DONNA@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM The Smithtown Town Board will hear at its May 23 meeting a request for special exception to allow the construction of a 130-room hotel at the Watermill Caterers’ catering hall on the southeast corner of Route 347 and Terry Road.

The site is currently zoned for industrial and neighborhood business and will need to be granted the special permission for a hotel, according to Allyson Murray, principal planner in the town’s Planning Department.

The project’s size, height, parking and traffic are issues that board members will evaluate.

Ultimately, the board will either approve or deny the project, or ask the applicant to modify the plans. But the Planning Department expects the meeting to be a hearing, where the public speaks.

“Residents can rest assured that the Town Board has been working closely with our Planning Department on this prospective plan,” town Supervisor Ed Wehrheim (R) said. “We’ll be meeting with the attorneys for the project Friday, May 17, to go over the proposal that was submitted for the project.”

Watermill and the new hotel is owned by

Anthony Scotto Restaurants, the same organization that runs Insignia restaurant in Smithtown and Blackstone Steakhouse in Melville, among other high-end hospitality and food service establishments.

The proposal will allow its catering hall guests, which are often out-of-town wedding guests, the option to spend the night there.

Nicole Garguilo, the town’s press officer said that the hotel idea could potentially become a benefit to local businesses and turn into significant tax revenue for the community.

Donald King, lawyer for the proposed hotel from Kings Park, said that he is happy to meet with residents and experts in the nearby communities, if necessary, to answer their questions.

The applicant submitted site plans in November 2018 following a Planning Board review in April 2018. The board found the application to be out of compliance with a range of standards.

“Before the plan is approved, the project would need to comply with all standards,” Murray said. “Or else the applicant could request Zoning Board Appeals approval.”

The Town Board will not be able to approve the plan on May 23, because no State Environmental Quality Review Act analysis has yet been conducted, Murray added.

Smithtown resident recognized For over 25 years, Smithtown’s Lauren Sklarin has been advocating for Long Island businesses and individuals, most currently as the director of community relations for Orchard Estate of Woodbury, a Benchmark-assisted living and memory care community under construction in Woodbury. Today, Orchard Estate is announcing that her advocacy work and achievements have earned her the Long Island Power Woman award.

Sklarin was recognized May 11 as a changemaker, rainmaker, innovator and being a voice to impact change. Drawing on the experience of caring for both of her grandmothers, she is passionate about helping Long Island seniors and their families through the aging process.

She frequently educates the public about dementia and enjoys helping people obtain the best quality care to meet their needs.

“Lauren’s positivity and immense energy around helping seniors in our community is a rare quality and something that everyone is benefiting from,” says Doug Cormack, executive director of Orchard Estate. “She makes Orchard Estate and the communities we serve a much better place, and I can think of no one else, female or male, who is more worthy of this award.”

Sklarin is also passionate about helping children learn the skills they need to succeed in life. She has spent the last 15 years teaching presentation skills to children in South Huntington. As a licensed soccer coach, she has spent 10 years coaching children in the HBC Soccer Club and Smithtown Kickers Soccer Club. She has also coached basketball to children through Half Hollow Hills FURY. With two children in the Smithtown School District, Sklarin spent three years as vice president and secretary of the PTA of Accompsett Middle School where she led many successful fundraisers.

Prior to joining Orchard Estate, Sklarin served as director of community relations for Home Instead Senior Care for Central Suffolk County.

Before that, she served in account management roles for a number of public relations agencies, including Publicis and Edelman. She graduated from SUNY New Paltz with a bachelor’s degree in journalism.

The Long Island Power Woman awards recognize successful business, community, cultural, political, civic and religious female leaders. The idea is to bring women together to support and learn from one another so they can achieve their goals. The annual event gathers Long Island’s high-powered businesswomen together to celebrate their achievements and create powerful allies in the workplace and community.

Fourth-graders at Tackan Elementary School in the Smithtown Central School District participated in an interactive lesson that “attracted” their attention on May 10.

The Magnets to Go program, presented by Brookhaven National Laboratory, gave students the opportunity to experiment and hypothesize

about magnets and their properties. Students learned about the science behind magnetic properties and electromagnetism.

The fourth-graders conducted experiments to discover magnetic and nonmagnetic metals.

They also explored magnetic properties such as north and south poles, magnetic fields, attracting and repelling forces and how electromagnets and generators work.

Smithtown scholar earns high honors Smithtown High School East senior Ian Winkeler has been named a 2019 National Merit Scholar. He is among the 2,500 winners of the 2019 National Merit $2,500 Scholarship. The winners were selected from a pool of more than 15,000 finalists.

Winkeler is a member of the National, Math, English and Tri-M honor societies. He also plays the alto saxophone in the school’s jazz ensemble.

Winkeler is a member of the Quiz Bowl team and plays both volleyball and tennis. Outside of school, he is a certified EMT and a volunteer with the Nissequogue Fire Department. Winkeler will be attending Stony Brook University in the fall, majoring in biochemistry.

National Merit winners are judged based on their accomplishments, skills and potential for success in rigorous college courses. The judges evaluate grades, difficulty of courses, standardized test scores, contributions and leadership both in school and in the community, an essay and a recommendation from a high school official.

The merit scholarship program was created in 1955. Students in grades nine through 12 vie for academic recognition and financial support.

About 1.6 million students take the qualifying test every year and about 50,000 of the highest scorers have the chance to be considered.

Smithtown kids for more civil society

Smithtown High School East and West students were recently selected to receive the Students Building Bridges Award. They were honored for their efforts in building bridges across communities and creating a more civil society at Suffolk County’s Yom Hashoah (Holocaust Remembrance Day) program hosted at Gurwin Jewish in Commack.

Ian Winkeler is congratulated by Principal Simmons Photo by Smithtown Central School District

“Ian exemplifies the best and brightest our school has to offer,” said Smithtown High School East Principal Kevin Simmons. “He is hard working, diligent and courteous. He is a role model both in the classroom and on the athletic field. He will be a fine asset to Stony Brook University next fall.”

Each student was recognized with a citation from an elected official and a certificate from the Jewish Community Relations Council of Long Island.

The district congratulates Alexis Albert and Angela Walz from Smithtown High School East; and Shayna Moses, Katheryn Schneider and Alexander Weiner from Smithtown High School West.

She has been a Girl Scout leader for the past five years and a member of the PFA at Kings Park High School. Deford is currently seeking re-election after serving the board for the past five years and has been board president for the past four.

“I will continue to utilize my educational knowledge in advocating for the children of our community,” she said in a statement. “Under my leadership, I am proud of the work that was accomplished in establishing a legislative committee and a policy committee. I have a vested interest in ensuring our district is the very best it can be.”

Deford said as a board member she is a voice of the community and when planning the school budget, the board has to be fiscally responsible while meeting all the needs of our students.

Dan Tew (incumbent)

Tew has lived in the district for the past 41 years with his wife Brenna and their three daughters. Tew is seeking re-election after spending three years on the board. He said his time on the board has taught him a lot about the budget process and the year-to-year constraints to put forth a balanced budget under the NYS tax cap.

“Since my tenure we have been successful in doing such without having to sacrifice course offerings, athletic programs and extracurricular programs,” he said in a statement. “The district is very fortunate to have an excellent business office that works seamlessly with the superintendent and board of education.”

The Kings Park resident has been an active participant in the community volunteering with the Junior Achievement of New York and a member of the St. Joseph’s Parish Tew said being raised in Kings Park and raising my family gives him a great sense of pride.

“Being an active participant in the community, my children’s lives and their classmates through various activities has given me a greater sense of Kings Park pride,” he said.

Tew hopes to be able to continue this collaboration and serve the community as a fiscally responsible trustee. He stated what’s best for the students is best for the community.

“The investment in our students is a great investment for the community,” he said.

JP Andrade

Andrade has been a Kings Park resident all his life. He graduated from Kings Park High School in 2014. This is Andrade’s third time running for a board of education trustee seat.

The most pressing issue facing the district, he said, is financial stability.

Currently, Andrade is finishing up his master’s degree at Hofstra University and is employed at Brentwood East Middle School as an assistant teacher and also coach for the boys lacrosse team.

Andrade’s niece attends Fort Salonga Elementary and he said he’s actively involved in her education. Andrade stresses the importance of community service with all residents, especially young ones and students. He has volunteered at the Kings Park Heritage Museum and at the Kings Park Library.

“Many times over the past years, the board and community have been at a crossroads, so I want to help continue to ‘solidify a bridge’ with our elected officials at all levels,” he said in a statement. “As well as being the most transparent district on the island for our constituents.”

Andrade said his goal as a board member is to better serve students and give them the best tools to strive for greatness in the future.

Before he began his career in education, he was involved in the political field working on President-elect Donald Trump’s transition team in New York City and for the advisory council at America First Policies.

School News

St. James poetry night Surrounded by family and friends, the fifth-graders at St. James Elementary School in the Smithtown Central School District showed off their poetic side during a poetry café held in the old gym on May 9. Transforming the gymnasium into a Parisian café — complete with bistro tables, dim lighting and cozy couches — the students took to the microphone one by one to read their poems.

After each presentation, the students snapped in unison to applaud their classmates as the bongo drummers ushered up the next poet to the stage. The poetry café gives students the opportunity to show off their writing abilities as well as work on their communication and public presentation skills.

Smithtown East Bulls fall to Babylon

BY BILL LANDON DESK@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM Smithtown East managed a one-run lead after the opening inning, but the North Babylon bats came alive in the top of the second, scoring three and from there the Bulls’ bats went silent.

North Babylon plated two in the top of the fifth as Smithtown East scored a run in the bottom of the second, but it was too little too late as the Bull’s fell 6-3 in a home game May 14.

The bright spot for the Bulls was Sammi Swenson, who ripped a homer over the centerfield fence driving in a run. With the win North Babylon stays atop the League III leaderboard with West Islip in second place and at 11-4 the Bulls are third, two games back.

Smithtown East plays its final game of the regular season May 16 where they’ll host Newfield before they ready their bats for postseason play.

Photos clockwise from top left: Smithtown East senior

shortstop Ashley DeGiorgio turns the double play; junior Sammi Swenson hits a long ball; senior Brianna Nelson hurls a fastball; and senior Hanna Brozyna, a five-year varsity player makes the catch.

Opinion

Editorial Election day debate

Mark your calendar: May 21 is election day! And according to New York State law, so is the second Tuesday in July for most Suffolk County fire departments. The third Tuesday in March is also election day for many village trustees and propositions.

Election day for state and local primaries, well that’s June 25 this year. When do you vote on library budget? Each local library has a different day for its election. So, why then do we call the first Tuesday in November election day as if there’s only one day when citizens vote?

Election days can be tough to track. It’s like the nutty old Abbott and Costello skit “Who’s on first, what’s on second, and I don’t know is on third.” Yet elections are no laughing matter.

Collectively, all of these elections amount to increased spending, which overtime adds up. It’s not easy getting it straight — not only these dates, but also all the spending.

In recent years, large and seemingly extravagant multimillion-dollar public projects have been both approved and declined by popular vote with lower voter turnout throughout our circulation area. The $14.9 million bond for the new Setauket Firehouse was approved on its third try with just 580 people voting out of a population of several thousand in the fire district.

Last year, a bond presented by the Mount Sinai School District was voted down with a 664-428 tally against the project. Mount Sinai has a population of over 12,000.

If one or two days each year were designated election day, it would be easier to hold elected officials accountable by enabling taxpayers to see a broad overview of taxation on one ballot.

At TBR News Media, we would support consolidating elections into one or two universal election days each year.

Make it a national holiday, so people are more keenly aware of their obligation. Maybe turn Columbus Day, a federal holiday, into election day? With one or two annual election days, citizens could more easily track spending and stay abreast of community affairs.

But until this happens, as we said, mark your calendars. All elections are important: They determine where our money will go and how much of it.

On May 21, Long Islanders will vote on board of education members and school district budgets, which account for a significant majority of our local tax bills. It’s a crucial vote that typically gains support from parents with children in school, while retirees or people with more limited income, who may have different priorities, make a point to show up at the polls to say no.

That’s the system we have now, so be sure to exercise your right to vote May 21.

Perspectives

Creating connections to combat anger, fear

Over the past six months, again and again, we’ve consoled and supported one another and our respective faith communities after incidents of hate and violence against people at prayer, whether Muslim, Sikh, Christian or Jewish. Also, recent arson attacks against several historically black churches and a mosque in California. The list could go on. We feel tremendous sadness for each one lost and for their families and loved ones. We feel tremendous sadness for those who are living with injury, whether physical, mental, or emotional.

We feel tremendous sadness for the faith communities forever scarred by that loss and by the trauma of violence.

We stand with and for each other.

We do not agree with each other about everything theological, but we vigorously defend and celebrate one another’s right to pray, worship and live vibrantly as people of faith. In our Three Village Interfaith Clergy Association, we are constantly learning from one another. We host interfaith services, programs and a blog for faith leaders and people of different faith traditions to be in conversation. We encourage everyone in our communities to seek out opportunities to learn about and form relationships with those from a variety of faith and cultural traditions. We are united in this community and love one another as friends and as siblings. We invite you to build those bridges with us.

But we also are angry. We’re angry about the persistence of hate.

We’re angry that anti-Semitism and Islamophobia and racism are on the rise.

We’re angry that organized hate groups are on the rise. We’re angry that people

have such easy access to guns and other weapons that destroy human life. We’re angry that some of this violence is done in the name of religion, and we confess and lament our own failures to wrestle critically with our own scriptures and theologies, and to oppose false versions of those theologies. We’re angry that we now have to spend time talking about how to secure our worship buildings and create safety and active shooter protocols — time that takes away from working for peace and justice in our communities and in our world. We’re angry that our children are learning that the two places they should feel most safe in their communities — their schools and places of worship — are now too often targets.

We must do something together about violence. As faith leaders, we don’t have all the answers, but it’s important for people of faith to be part of the conversation about guns, and conflict, and war, and our culture’s increasing acquiescence and resignation to violence, whether it is violent acts or words. Faith leaders, faith communities and people of faith should be the front lines of these conversations, of the commitment to nonviolence, and of active opposition to the glorification of weapons and violence in all its forms.

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. often talked about the Beloved Community.

On one occasion, he said, “The end is the creation of the Beloved Community. It is this type of spirit and this type of love that can transform opponents into friends.

It is this type of understanding goodwill that will transform the deep gloom of the old age into the exuberant gladness of the new age. It is this love which will bring

about miracles in the hearts of [people].”

Let us be, together in this Three Village community, the model of exuberant gladness, celebrating and loving one another, and actively working together against the deep gloom of hate and violence.

Letter to the editor

Single most attraction of Island is its people I always enjoy reading Daniel Dunaief’s opinion piece, and last week’s column, “The agony and ecstasy of Long Island life” was no exception.

I wish to take the liberty of adding one element of “ecstasy” to his piece, if I may be so presumptuous. As an unapologetic and extremely fortunate native Islander, in my opinion, the single most positive

attraction of our Island is its people. The diversity, empathy and resourcefulness of our neighbors is something of which we can all be proud.

Just look at the volunteerism reflected by our fire departments, EMS personnel, school board trustees, library board trustees and countless other organizations that significantly add to the quality of our

lives where their lifeblood is the dedication of the women and men we call neighbors.

Admittedly we may be loud at times and in a hurry most of the time, but I wouldn’t trade the friends and neighbors with whom we share our Island with anyone anywhere.

Divergent expectations, realities and memories of parenting

A

s I ponder the next step before my pint-sized daughter leaves the proverbial nest, I recall the incongruities between what we expected, what happened and what we remember. Please find below a list of some magical and not-so-magical moments.

The birth of our daughter What we thought would happen: We had 40, no, make it D. None 42, weeks to get of the above ready for the birth of our daughter

BY DANIEL DUNAIEF who waited well past her due date to appear. We took Lamaze classes — “breathe honey, breathe, there you go” — we read baby books and we had a birth plan. I figured my wife

would let me know “it’s time” when her water broke or when the squint-through-them-andthen-smile-radiantly contractions arrived. We’d jump in a taxi and a wonderfully cheerful nurse would welcome us to the hospital.

What actually happened: Our daughter really didn’t want to come out, so the doctor scheduled an induced delivery. We casually packed our small bags, drove slowly to the hospital and walked up to the entrance. Numerous drugs, two days, almost no sleep and considerable anxiety later, our daughter still hadn’t made her appearance.

What we remember: This is tough, because we recall some of the hours of confusion and anxiety, but the end result was so life altering that one of our recurring memories was of a nurse coming in, to ask how many times we changed her diaper after she spent hours in the room with us. Wait, were we supposed to change her diaper?

Early trips to the doctor What I thought would happen: He’d examine her and tell us what a wonderful job

we were doing, and would offer us timely and helpful advice about surviving without sleep.

What actually happened: She weighed less than she did at birth. Is that good? Is that bad?

No, it’s normal, he assured us. Why are you giving her shots already? Can’t she get shots later? She looks so peaceful. Why are you making her cry?

What I remember: That shot seemed so painful. We don’t remember our first shots, but we both felt as if the doctor were stabbing us with a sword when he gently inserted the needle in her arm.

First steps What we thought would happen: She’d take some steps, we’d clap, and she’d be on her way.

What actually happened: We didn’t take away her walking toy until someone told us it was keeping her from learning to walk.

What we remember: Silly us, we delayed her walking because we let her keep using the toy, but, hey, she did just fine.

First athletic event What I thought would happen: She’d try to

throw or catch and ball and I’d be thrilled with her effort.

What actually happened: She played with dandelions and chatted with her friends.

What I remember: She looked great in that red T-shirt with her mitt turned backward toward her knee.

Going to high school What we thought would happen: She’d share her daily experiences with us and we’d laugh and offer sage advice.

What actually happened: She grunted, we growled, and now she’s graduating What we remember: She smiled and waved at us from the volleyball court and she laughed with us while we made cookies for her friends.

Driving What we thought would happen: She’d drive slowly and carefully and listen to us.

What actually happened: She told us all the advice we gave her wasn’t how we drove.

What we remember: She passed her driver’s test and can do errands and drive herself around.

Thank goodness.

Balancing a career and motherhood

I

t’s still the same old story, only 60 years later. When I was an undergraduate at Barnard, the college president, Millicent McIntosh, who was well ahead of her time, urged the women — actually we still called ourselves “girls” then — to prepare themselves for a career and not just for marriage. “Statistics tell us that you will be alone during some parts of your adult life, whether from widowhood, divorce or not finding a mate. You may have to support yourself and your children, should you have them.”

Between We giggled at the message. you and me The question

BY LEAH S. DUNAIEF then became: Who will take care of the children while we are working, and what

will be the effect of a working mother on those children? In short, the issue was how to balance a career and motherhood.

Although she didn’t say it, the answer for President McIntosh, our role model who had several children, was to have help in the home. That was made possible by the fact that she and her physician husband made a sufficient living to pay for that help. That meant for women to have a career was a luxury, and we resolved the career/motherhood dilemma by assuring ourselves that it was quality time spent with children, not quantity, that would make the difference in their lives.

How pat an answer. How innocent. How ridiculous.

This was just before the world changed, just before Betty Friedan, Bella Abzug, Gloria Steinem and the invention of birth control pills.

Within the following 20 years, certainly by the early 1980s, women poured out of the kitchen into the workplace, and the two-paycheck family became the norm. Values in America had changed, family income had improved, but the conversation was the same: Who will take care

of the children and how will women and men — and the children at home — cope?

So how have we coped?

For starters, women can pursue success in the workplace much more readily, if not yet with pay equality. Women can also support themselves rather than stay in a marriage they may deem difficult. The other side of the coin is that the frustrations of balancing the workplace and motherhood that we imagined early on have indeed come true. And lots of other changes have taken place in society that weren’t imagined.

The relationship between men and women inside marriage has changed. The drive for equal pay in the workplace continues. The rate of divorce has soared in the last half-century.

And fewer Americans are even getting married than ever before.

In 1960, 82 percent of Americans between the ages of 25 and 34 were married, but in 2010 that rate had dropped to 44 percent. By 2018, the reproductive rate in the United States had fallen to a 32-year low, which will of course have all sorts of implications for the future

workforce and economic consequences on Social Security, among others. Remaining in the middle class now depends, for most people, on two incomes.

And the work-life balance question? Well, that problem still hangs in the air. Someone has to take care of the children, but who? I can honestly say that almost every career-successful wife I have ever interviewed and asked how she managed the home-workplace situation has expressed frustration with the outcome even as she loves her work.

Couples today work out their own arrangements. Those fortunate enough to have the funds hire help. Roles in marriage have sometimes reversed, with the husband staying at home for the family. Some corporations have realized the benefit of offering paid family leave, so that infants are not left to third-party care. Grandparents have been pressed into service to care for their grandchildren.

But the bottom line is that the choice to work has now become the necessity in most cases for both partners to support the family.

The choice is still a luxury.
