Latimer signs domestic violence victims bill

Westchester Hepatitis A exposure case extended The Westchester County Health Department is extending its recommendation to get a Hepatitis A vaccine to anyone who ate at Winston restaurant in Mount Kisco on May 2 and 3. The additional two exposure dates were added after health department staff interviewed restaurant workers as part of their disease investigation. On May 7, the Health Department gave 78 people a Hepatitis A vaccine after learning on May 6 that an employee with Hepatitis A worked while infectious. Anyone who was at the restaurant from April 17 to May 3 may have been exposed. The county Health Department will continue to offer free preventive treatment this week to individuals who ate or drank at Winston between April 24 and May 3. Advance registration for the county preventive clinic is highly recommended. To register, go to health.ny.gov/gotoclinic/60.

Preventive treatment is only effective if given within two weeks of the last day of exposure. Therefore, those who dined on April 23 had to receive preventive treatment by Tuesday, May 6, and others must receive preventive treatment within two weeks of their exposure. Anyone who was at the restaurant from April 17 to April 23 and has not yet been vaccinated is outside the period for preventive treatment and should contact their health care provider if they develop symptoms. No one who had two Hepatitis A vaccines or a Hepatitis A infection needs to be treated. The Health Department will offer preventive treatment at the Health Department Clinic, 134 Court St., in White Plains, on the following dates and times: • Thursday, May 9, 10 a.m. to 6:30 p.m., pre-register online • Friday, May 10, 10 a.m. to 6:30 p.m., pre-register online

A parent/guardian to provide consent must accompany anyone under 18 years of age. Primary care providers also can treat restaurant patrons with exposure. “I urge anyone who is eligible for treatment to get a Hepatitis A vaccine,” said Dr. Sherlita Amler, the county commissioner of health. “There are no special medications used to treat a person once symptoms appear, but Hepatitis A transmission to others can be prevented through proper handwashing. And a second Hepatitis A vaccine will provide lifetime protection.” Hepatitis A is transmitted by consuming food or drinks or by using utensils that have been handled by an infected person. It may also be spread from person to person by ingesting something that has been contaminated with the stool of a person with Hepatitis A. Casual contact, such as sitting together, does not spread the virus. Hepatitis A is generally a mild

illness whose symptoms include fatigue, fever, poor appetite, abdominal pain, diarrhea, dark urine, light-colored stool and jaundice, which is the yellowing of the skin and whites of the eyes. Not everyone infected with Hepatitis A will have all of its symptoms. Symptoms commonly appear within 28 days of exposure, with a range of 15 to 50 days. Preventive treatment is only effective within two weeks of exposure to the virus, but symptoms typically do not appear until a person has had the virus for a few weeks. The illness is rarely fatal and most people recover in a few weeks without any complications. Winston is cooperating with the Health Department and closed voluntarily on Tuesday to conduct a thorough cleaning. After staff have been vaccinated and the restaurant has been re-inspected and approved by the county Department of Health, the restaurant plans to reopen. (Submitted)

up to 40 hours of paid leave to attend or testify in court proceedings related to their situations, to move from an abuser’s residence or to speak with lawyers or other advisers. Employers may ask for reasonable documentation that “safe time” has been used for these purposes. “The most dangerous time for a victim is when they are leaving an abuser. That is when they need to act with speed and with a strategy that keeps them and their children safe. I believe this is a bill that will save people’s lives in Westchester County,” said Legislator Catherine Borgia, the bill’s main sponsor. CarLa Horton, Hope’s Door director, added, “Being a victim of domestic violence takes every ounce of strength and courage and support—more than you could ever imagine. One of the hardest things for victims is feeling that they are all alone, that no one knows or believes or cares. This sends a message to victims everywhere that they are not alone and that people do care— and that is worth much more than 40 hours of work.” (Submitted)

With leaders in the business and labor communities, advocates who work on the front lines with domestic violence victims and lawmakers, Westchester County Executive George Latimer signed the “Safe Leave” For Domestic Violence Victims bill into law. “This is a major step forward for people who are victims of domestic violence to be able to get the support that they need in order to deal with that victimization and to know they won’t have to sacrifice their employment to do so,” Latimer said. “This again shows our willingness to be on the forefront of progressive action, to do it in a bi- or tri-partisan fashion, and to do it in concert with what we are hearing from the community.” The measure, which unanimously passed the county Board of Legislators, with tri-partisan support (Democrat, Republican and Conservative) will give victims of domestic violence or human trafficking the ability to take “safe leave” from their jobs. This new law grants victims of domestic violence or human trafficking

Elmsford has Westchester’s best water on tap Westchester’s best-tasting water flows from faucets in Elmsford, according to an impartial panel of pedestrians who sipped their way through the Westchester County Department of Health’s annual water taste test on Tuesday, May 7. One hundred thirteen people sampled water from nine of the county’s public water suppliers on Martine Avenue in White Plains and then voted for their favorite without knowing where it was from. This friendly annual competition promotes the excellent quality of Westchester tap water, and highlights the role of the county Health Department in assuring drinking water quality. “After drinking tap water from around the County today, I can tell you that Westchester water tastes great, and we shouldn’t take this natural resource for granted,” said County Executive George Latimer. “It’s reassuring to know we have professionals working behind the scenes to maintain and assure the high

quality of our drinking water.” The winner will advance to a regional competition, and the regional champion will compete for statewide bragging rights at the Great New York State Fair in Syracuse at the end of the summer. The experts say a good glass of water should be clean, crisp, clear and cool. The county Health Department and the water suppliers sample the waters routinely to ensure all quality standards are met. All contest participants meet all water quality standards. The nine water suppliers who competed were: Cortlandt Consolidated Water District; Elmsford Water District; Greenburgh Water District No. 1; Mount Vernon Water Department; Peekskill Water Department; Suez Water Westchester, Inc.; White Plains Water Supply, Ossining Water and Yonkers Water Supply. In 1974, Congress first enacted the Safe Drinking Water Act to protect public health by regulating public water systems. The federal Environmental Protection

Agency sets legal limits for more than 90 contaminants in public drinking water supplies. These limits, as well as water testing schedules and methods that water systems must follow, are enforced in Westchester by the county Health Department. Water systems must routinely sample their water and provide the results to the Health Department for review. Health Department engineers and sanitarians take their own samples to assure drinking water in Westchester meets all sanitary standards. In cases when the water doesn’t measure up, the Health Department assures that customers are notified, and that the water is treated or remediation takes place to bring the water up to regulatory standards. The Health Department also reviews and approves any construction or replacement of tanks, pipes and water mains within the systems. For more information, contact the county Department of Health at 813-5000. (Submitted)

The New 60 is a weekly look about what it’s like to be in your 60’s in today’s world: adult children living at home, downsizing (jobs and houses), finding old friends on Facebook and deciphering text-speak. It’s a Brave New World of second homes, second careers and second marriages…and finding out after a lifetime of milkshakes and ice cream that you’re suddenly lactose-intolerant. The New 60 is created by two local 60-plus Westchester residents, John Colquhoun of Bronxville and Andy Landorf, who hails from Tarrytown. The duo are long-time advertising creatives and this, as the saying goes, is their Act II. Even though it features folks in their 60’s, if you know someone who is 60, have a parent who’s 60 or just generally enjoy watching funny things happen to other people, you’ll find something to relate to here—you may even find yourself saying, “Hey, that happened to me!” To read more of the New 60, visit their website at thenew60comic.com.

Avalon Bay and enjoying a Taste of Harrison Larchmont woman recognized by state Senate HARRISON HAPPENINGS Mayor Ron Belmont

I’m happy to report that the much-anticipated Avalon Bay/ MTA/town of Harrison project has begun. The mixed use, transit-oriented development will be located on Halstead Avenue and will include 143 apartments, 27,000 square feet of commercial space and more than 700 parking spaces. This exciting addition to our commercial business district will benefit the town/village of Harrison by creating a vibrant streetscape with space for small shops, restaurants and community focused facilities. It’s not too early to save the date for this year’s “A Taste of Harrison.” On Sunday, May 19, from noon to 3 p.m., The Friends of the Harrison Public Library will be sponsoring this event to benefit the library. At your own pace, visit restaurants in any order, and enjoy a delicious sample of the chef’s specialties. Many of the downtown Harrison restaurants are participating. Participants are asked to purchase a

special wristband: Adults, $25 ($30 on day of event), Children under age 12, $10 ($15 on day of event) and Family Pack, $60 ($65 on day of event). To purchase wristbands visit the library or order online at 2019toh.com. A complimentary shuttle bus will also be available. To help residents keep their backyards free of mosquito breeding sites, the Westchester County Department of Health will give away free minnows, for residential ponds and water features, along with mosquito dunks, advice and strategies to prevent the spread of mosquito-borne diseases like West Nile Virus. Availability at the Westchester County Airport, 2 Loop Road, West Harrison, 10604, is as follows: Friday, May 17, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Saturday, May 18, 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Residents with ornamental ponds can add fathead minnows to the water. The minnows eat mosquito larvae, preventing them from maturing into biters. Dunks serve the same purpose in birdbaths, rain barrels and unused pools. Residents who plan to pick up minnows should bring a bucket or pail; minnows will be distributed in watertight plastic

bags. To keep the minnows viable, residents should plan to bring them straight home and release them immediately into ponds with at least eight inches of water. Please make note of the following reminder from our commissioner of Public Works regarding organic yard waste. Under a directive from the New York City Department of Environmental Protection, Harrison is no longer permitted to accept and process grass clippings. Town personnel will no longer collect grass clippings, either in piles or bags, placed curbside. It is suggested that mowing equipment be retrofitted, adding blades that will efficiently mulch the grass as it is mowed, leaving the mulch to naturally fertilize the lawn. The next “Lunch with the Mayor” is on Friday, May 10 and I will be at Great Wall located at 25 Taylor Square in West Harrison. On Friday, May 17 I will be at Goldberg’s Rock’n Bagel Cafe located at 379 Halstead Ave., in downtown Harrison. I will be at these locations from 12:30 p.m. to 1:30 p.m. and look forward to meeting with residents to talk about issues facing our community. State Sen. Shelley Mayer; Nicole Sheindlin, co-founder of the Her Honor Mentoring Program; and Anahi Bustamante, Mayer’s 2018-19 mentee. Contributed photo

On Tuesday, May 7, the state Senate recognized Nicole Sheindlin as a Woman of Distinction during the Senate’s 21st Annual Women of Distinction ceremony hosted in Albany. Sheindlin is a resident of Larchmont and was nominated by Sen. Shelley Mayer for her work to empower young women through the “Her Honor Mentoring” program. Sheindlin co-founded the “Her Honor Mentoring” program with her stepmother, the Hon. Judith Sheindlin, star of the television program, “Judge Judy,” and former supervising judge of Manhattan’s Family Court. The Westchester County-based nonprofit pairs female high school seniors, generally the first in their families to attend college and many of whom face significant financial barriers, with women who are leaders in their respective careers. The program provides a supportive mentoring opportuni-

ty for these young women to gain exposure to women in leadership, to gain confidence and improve work skills, and to expand the range of opportunities they consider for their futures. For hundreds of young women from Westchester’s diverse communities, from Peekskill to Port Chester, the “Her Honor Mentoring” program has changed lives and lifted hopes. Mayer has proudly participated in the Her Honor Mentoring program for several years with highly capable young women from the Yonkers Public Schools placed in her office. Mayer’s mentee for this year, Anahi Bustamante, a senior at Harrison High School, came to Albany to watch the ceremony. “I am so very pleased to nominate Nicole Sheindlin for the NYS Senate Woman of Distinction Award,” Mayer said. “Throughout her career, Nicole has shown a dedication to the

community and to empowering women. Her founding and leadership of this innovative and life-changing program is a testament to her belief that exposure to women in leadership in a variety of careers, coupled with supportive mentorship, will have a lasting and meaningful impact on young women’s lives. I have had the honor of participating in the Her Honor Mentoring program for many years. It is a pathbreaking program for the young women who participate and graduate from the program, exposed to careers and choices that will shape their futures.” Nicole Sheindlin said, “I am honored to be recognized with the NYS Women of Distinction Award, and I accept this distinction on behalf of all of the amazing women of Westchester County who enthusiastically serve as mentors to our next generation of women leaders.” (Submitted)

County, Save the Sound and the state Assembly Westchester Delegation. Otis provided an overview of state funding sources available to municipalities for innovative green clean water infrastructure projects as well as an update of New York’s main water grant program, the Water Infrastructure Improvement Act, WIIA, that Otis helped create during the 2015-16 state budget. To date, WIIA has provided more than $750 million in grants statewide with almost $3 billion in grants projected through 2024. EFC senior staff members from the Integrated Solutions Construction grants, ISC, and the Green Innovation Grant Program, GIGP, provided information on two clean water infrastructure programs offered to local governments for water infrastructure design and technology. The ISC program has $8 million in grants available. Applications are due June 28. An additional $15 million is available under the GIGP, with applications being accepted through the Regional Economic Development Councils’ Consolidated Funding Application, CFA.

GIGP applications are due July 26. Additional information and the online grant application are available on the EFC website at https://www.efc.ny.gov/ grant-programs. Grant managers from the city of Yonkers’ Department of Planning and Development shared details of the Saw Mill River day lighting project that resulted in the creation of a natural habitat, job creation and economic revitalization of downtown Yonkers. Assemblyman Otis stated, “We had a great turnout at the workshop where our focus was to bring more clean water grant dollars to Westchester municipalities,” Otis said. “The Governor and the Legislature have demonstrated significant commitment to clean water with an additional $500 million added this year towards water quality programs in the state budget, the first installment of a new five-year, $2.5 billion program to address water quality issues proposed by the Governor. It is my hope that many Westchester communities will take advantage of these innovative green infrastructure grant programs to improve water quality.” (Submitted)

U.S. Holocaust Museum to host screening in Harrison

SCREENING OF ‘PROSECUTING EVIL: The Extraordinary World of Ben Ferencz’ Jewish Community Center of Harrison 130 Union Ave., Wednesday, May 15 @ 7 p.m.

The U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum will host a special screening of the documentary, “Prosecuting Evil: The Extraordinary World of Ben Ferencz.” Produced and directed by Barry Avrich, “Prosecuting Evil” tells the fascinating story of Ben Ferencz—the last surviving Nuremberg prosecutor and lifelong advocate of “law not war.”

The U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum will host a special screening of the documentary, “Prosecuting Evil: The Extraordinary World of Ben Ferencz.” Produced and directed by Barry Avrich, “Prosecuting Evil” tells the fascinating story of Ben Ferencz—the last surviving Nuremberg prosecutor and lifelong advocate of “law not war.” After witnessing Nazi concentration camps shortly after liberation, Ferencz became the lead prosecutor in the Einsatzgruppen case at Nuremberg, which has been called the biggest murder trial in history. All 22 Nazi officials tried for murdering more than a million Jews were convicted. Ferencz went on to advocate for restitution for Jewish victims of the Holocaust and later for the establishment of the International Criminal Court. His fight for justice for victims of atrocity crimes continues today. Ferencz has been involved with the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum since its creation 26 years ago. He has donated his personal archives to the Museum, which includes 500,000 pages of documentation, and funded the Ferencz International Justice Initiative at the Museum›s Simon-Skjodt Center for the Prevention of Genocide. In 2015 he received the Museum’s highest honor, the Elie Wiesel Award, for

his work holding Nazi perpetrator accountable and advocating for Holocaust survivors and other victims of genocide. “Prosecuting Evil” is a production of Melbar Entertainment Group with assistance from the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum Ferencz International Justice Initiative. The Museum is pleased to co-present this May 15 event with Bet Torah, Congregation Emanu-El of Westchester, documentary channel, Melbar Entertainment Group, Rogers Documentary Fund and the Jewish Community Center of Harrison. Following the screening, there will be a post-screening discussion with director and producer, Barry Avrich and Elizabeth Little, senior advisor, Ferencz International Justice Initiative, Simon-Skjodt Center for the Prevention of Genocide, U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum. The event will take place at the Jewish Community Center of Harrison on Wednesday, May 15. This program is free and open to the public, but registration is required at ushmm.org/ events/prosecuting-evilharrison.

The free agent shuffle LIVE MIKE Mike Smith

Optimism can be a heck of a thing, sometimes finding a foothold in even the most hopeless of situations. And there are few situations in sports today quite as hopeless as being a Knicks fan. But while there may be many Knicks fans looking forward to the off-season free agent market, clamoring for the Knicks to sign a franchise savior—or two—any true fan who has been paying attention to the NBA playoffs thus far has every right to be worried. For months, Knicks fans have salivated at the idea of the off-season. With plenty of cap space—and a shot at Duke star Zion Williamson in the draft—all signs were pointing to this being the summer the Knicks finally put everything together. But as the rumors swirled, there were two names that became linked with the team in countless me-

dia reports, the two players who most pundits believed had the best chance to come to Madison Square Garden: Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving. On the surface, it made sense. Durant—currently plugging away as a key piece of the defending NBA champion Warriors—may very well be the best player in the league, and Kyrie, who served as LeBron James’ sidekick on the Cavaliers’ 2016 title team would seem to be a fine complementary star. But Irving’s performance in the Eastern Conference semifinals this year has certainly given me cause for concern. As of press time, Irving and the Celtics are trailing the Milwaukee Bucks 3-1 in the series, and much of the blame falls directly on the shoulders of the AllStar point guard. He has been absolutely terrible from the field— going 7-for-22 in a horrific Game 4 performance—but it’s been his other antics; like leaving the court early in the loss and giving sur-

ly, self-righteous postgame interviews, that make me question whether or not he’s truly the answer for the Knicks. Kyrie has always been a divisive player. His talent is undeniable, he has had a knack for making clutch shots in his career, and he’s generally thought of as an intelligent, thoughtful human away from the game. But his anti-media churlishness and his perceived desire to be the marquee star—which is why he left Cleveland for Boston in the first place—doesn’t seem to be a winning recipe in New York. And teaming him with the notoriously thin-skinned Durant, who has had his own run-ins over the years with media members, sounds like it could be potentially disastrous for the Knicks. Now, would the addition of those two—plus whomever the Knicks pick up in the draft— immediately make the team better? Of course it would, that goes without saying; the Knicks won 17 games last

year. But will it turn the squad into favorites, or even contenders in the Eastern Conference? Sadly, I think not.

But one thing is for sure, if the Knicks get Kyrie and Durant, they’ll at least be entertaining. Just maybe not for the

right reasons.
