Steelpointe’s The August starts filling up apartment units By Gary Larkin / glarkin@westfairinc.com

BRIDGEPORT – The centerpiece of the nearly $3 billion Steelpointe Harbor development on the city’s East Side had its coming out party on Thursday as the first residential phase of The August luxury and mixed-income apartment complex was officially opened by Bridgeport Landing Development and Flaherty & Collins Properties. The grand opening and ribbon cutting comes more than 18 months after the groundbreaking of the $200 million 465,633-square-foot, 6-story, 420-unit apartment building and stand-alone 5-story parking garage at 55 E. Main St. When completed, the complex will include 160 workforce units for households earning between 80% and 100% of area median income. Actually, half of the 140 apartment units that were completed in the first phase – most of which are deemed workforce housing – already have tenants, according to Bobby Christoph Jr., president of Bridgeport Landing Development Steelpointe and vice president of the RCI Group. “The waterfront has been opened,” Christoph said. “People are living here. There are affordable housing options on site. There’s around 70 people living here now. We are done with the first 140 units.” The apartments include 477-squarefoot studios that rent for $1,965-$2,540, 664-864-square-foot 1-bedrooms that go for $2,486-$2,672, 992-squarefoot 2-bedrooms for $3,230-$4,000, 1,830-square-foot 3-bedrooms for $9,075-$9,085. They include such amenities as an outdoor pool, library and co-working space, sauna, outdoor pizza oven, fitness center, bicycle shop, café, and pickleball court. “I think there will be a waiting list for the affordable housing units right now since it is quite popular,” Christoph Jr. told the Fairfield County Business Journal. While the Christophe family of developers, led by President Robert Christoph, have spent the past 12 years developing the former power plant property on the Bridgeport peninsula opposite the Bridgeport and Port Jefferson Ferry, Flaherty & Collins was the co-developer and will continue as property manager. “Eight banks took a chance on Bridgeport to get this project down,”

said Ryan Cronk, Flaherty & Collins vice president of development. “It took 18 months to get all this financing together.” Those banks include Old National Bank, Busey Bank, Newtown Savings Bank, Essex Bank, First Bank of Greenwich, Webster Bank, First Merchants Bank and Southern Bank. Old National Bank led the way with a $111 million construction loan. Additional project financing is being provided by the Connecticut Housing Finance Authority (CHFA), the Connecticut Department of Economic and Community Development (DECD), Local Initiatives Support Corporation (LISC), and Connecticut Innovations. Bridgeport Mayor Joe Ganim, who was joined by such members of the City Council as President Jeanette Herron, Aidee Nieves and Maria Valle, told a story of resilience in getting The August project over the finish line. “There is a sense of awe as the vision of for waterfront parcel to come a reality in a such an appropriate way,” Mayor Ganim said. “Such a redeeming value with 400-plus units and 160 workforce housing right here in this building. That’s about a $190 million, $200 million overall projected investment in this phase. Overall, at Steelpointe, we are talking about between 1,400-1,500 units. “When you do the math, the overall investment gets to something with a ‘b’ (as in billions) on it in investment and jobs and the recapture of the waterfront of this city. This is part of a journey for Bridgeport, not only in the creation of jobs, growth in the grand list and the beautification of neighborhoods throughout the city.” He cited that construction at the site generated more than 453,900 labor hours and awarded over $41.8 million in contracts to minority, women, and small business enterprises, surpassing the project’s diversity contracting requirements. The development also supported local hiring, apprenticeship opportunities, and employment for members of the re-entry community. Gov. Ned Lamont, who was on hand for the grand opening with state Commissioner of Housing Seila Mosquera-Bruno and Nandini Natarajan, executive director of the Connecticut Housing Finance Authority, pointed out the importance of the Steelpointe

Harbor project for Bridgeport and the state. “I want to hand it to the Christophs,” Gov. Lamont said. “You saw a place that was empty for a long time – an old power plant. And you saw what this could be – this amazing waterfront property opening it up for everybody. “Cities in our state shrunk for 50, 60, 70 years. Now our cities are coming back and growing, none more so than Bridgeport. I think you’re going to sell out fast. So, keep on going.” The second phase of The August is due to be completed soon, according to Christoph Jr. In the past decade, a Bass Pro Shops Outdoor World; The Lighthouse, which includes Boca Oyster Bar; a Starbucks; a Chipotle restaurant and a car wash have been built at Steelpointe. A gas station convenience store will soon join the carwash. Additionally, there is the new Bridgeport Harbor Marina and a ferry service shipyard by Hornblower Inc. By next year, a 300,000-square-foot, 6-story, 142-room hotel on East Main Street and Pembroke Street next to The August will go up. The site also reflects Bridgeport’s long maritime and industrial history. Shipbuilding began along this waterfront in the early 1700s, and by the late 1800s the peninsula had become a center of commerce. The name “Steel Point” derives from the Bridgeport Steel Works that once operated there.

Topping off for QWest in Mount Vernon By Peter Katz / pkatz@westfairinc.com
A topping off ceremony was held Aug. 11 for QWest Towers, a $160 million transit-oriented housing development that will bring new affordable apartments to Mount Vernon.
The two towers in the development are being built adjacent to the Mount Vernon West Metro-North Train Station by Simone Development Companies and Stagg Group. Also involved in the development is Rev. Dr. L’Judie Matt-Simmons. Joe Simone, president of Simone Development Companies, Mark Stagg, president of Stagg Group, Mount Vernon Mayor Shawyn Patterson-Howard, and Westchester County Executive Ken Jenkins were among those on hand for the topping off event. QWest Towers consists of two mixed-use buildings that will include a combined 229 apartments affordable to households earning up to 80% of the Area Median Income. The two buildings will include a mix of studio, one-, twoand three-bedroom apartments. Twelve of the units are designed to accommodate residents with mobility disabilities and seven units are reserved for residents with sensory disabilities. The development will also include approximately 3,300 square feet of ground-floor commercial space. Amenities in the all-electric buildings include rooftop recreation areas
and community rooms. Sustainability features include landscaped roofs, electric vehicle charging, Energy Star appliances, low-flow plumbing fixtures, and low-emitting construction materials that improve indoor air quality while reducing energy consumption. The development includes two structured parking garages providing a combined 170 parking spaces for residents and commercial tenants. Patterson-Howard said, “Mount Vernon is proud to be a pro-housing community. QWest Towers is workforce housing, transit-oriented development, and neighborhood reinvestment all coming together in one transformative project.” Simone recalled growing up in Mount Vernon and noted that “this project represents years of collaboration and a shared commitment to creating high-quality affordable workforce housing while helping transform the gateway to this city. We’re proud to partner with Rev. Dr. L’Judie Matt-Simmons, Stagg Group and our public-sector partners to deliver a development that will serve residents and strengthen the Mount Vernon commu-
nity for generations to come.” Stagg said, “QWest Towers demonstrates what can be accomplished when the public and private sectors work together toward a common goal. We’re not just building housing — we’re helping write the next chapter for this community. We’re proud of what this partnership has accomplished, and we’re proud to be part of Mount Vernon’s future.” Financing for QWest Towers includes a mix of public and private sources, including federal and state Low-Income Housing Tax Credits from New York State Homes and Community Renewal (HCR) that are expected to generate more than $69 million in equity, $32.5 million in HCR subsidy loans and $5 million through Empire State Development’s Mid-Hudson Momentum Fund. Additional public funding includes more than $19 million from Westchester County through its Housing Flex Fund and New Homes Land Acquisition Program. “This project is about more than building 229 affordable homes,” Westchester County Executive Ken Jenkins said. “We are taking underutilized
space and transforming it into a vibrant community asset that will provide safe, stable and affordable housing for Mount Vernon families. We know that housing affordability is essential to the strength and vitality of our neighborhoods.” In a statement Gov. Kathy Hochul said, “We continue to work closely with developers and municipalities to identify opportunities to bring modern, affordable homes to places like Mount Vernon. Our investment in QWest Towers will offer the development’s residents the benefit of modern apartments in a transit-oriented neighborhood while also supporting the ongoing revitalization of the city.” According to Empire State Development President, CEO, and Commissioner Hope Knight, “With new commercial space and direct transit access, this project will connect more people to jobs, bring new activity to the surrounding neighborhood and advance Mount Vernon’s long-term revitalization. ESD is proud to support this transformation through our Mid-Hudson Momentum Fund, helping build a downtown ready for growth.”

Scarsdale Security Systems acquired by Everon By Peter Katz / pkatz@westfairinc.com
Scarsdale Security Systems, which was founded in 1982 and has 100 employees in 10 states has been acquired by Everon LLC, which has corporate offices in Boca Raton, Florida and Irving, Texas. Scarsdale Security has its Northeast Operations Center at 132 Montgomery Ave,. in Scarsdale and has about 100 employees in 10 states.
In 2023, the security giant ADT’s commercial security and fire division was acquired by the private equity firm GTCR and rebranded as Everon. The company provides commercial security, video, fire, sprinkler, and life safety solutions for complex, multi-site businesses and organizations. It has more than 5,000 employees across 100 offices and two dedicated monitoring and operations centers. Everon supports more than 300,000 customer locations throughout the U.S. In a business description for a National Retail Federation event in 2024, Scarsdale Security Systems described itself as operating alarm monitoring and remote observation centers in Scarsdale with a disaster recovery and monitoring site at the Mid-Central Operations Center in Springfield, Missouri. The company’s described its products as including security, fire alarm, remote interactive video surveillance monitoring, video alarm verification, remote managed access control, voice and data communications systems, networking, and system monitoring and maintenance service

“Scarsdale has built an outstanding reputation serving commercial customers, particularly those with complex, multi-site environments,” said Don Young, CEO of Everon. “Through this partnership, Scarsdale customers benefit from our established, successful National Account infrastructure, extensive service capabilities, innovative technology portfolio, and nationwide
reach while continuing to benefit from the trusted relationships and responsive support that have been central to Scarsdale’s success.” David Raizen, president and founder of Scarsdale Security Systems said, “Joining Everon represents an exciting next chapter for Scarsdale. We have built our reputation on high-quality solutions, dependable service, and long-stand-
ing customer relationships. Everon’s national platform, resources, and established National Account infrastructure will help us extend that value even further for our customers and employees.” A spokesperson for Envron told Westfair’s Westchester County Business Journal that Scarsdale Security will continue operating from its present locations and will maintain its current branding for now. “Over time, the business will transition to the Everon brand as integration activities progress,” the spokesperson said. “The team will continue to service the market, and customers can expect the same high level of service quality and support they have come to know from Scarsdale Security Systems. Everon is committed to maintaining continuity for customers while bringing the added benefits of a larger national platform, expanded resources, and broader service capabilities.” The acquisition closed on Aug. 3.

Latimer: Delaney Hall detention facility should be closed By Peter Katz / pkatz@westfairinc.com
Congressman George Latimer, whose New York 16th Congressional District covers parts of Westchester and the Bronx, after having inspected the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention facility Delaney Hall in Newark, New Jersey, says that with the Republicans controlling Washington it is unlikely legislation forcing closure of Delaney Hall could pass let alone be signed into law by President Trump. Nevertheless, Latimer called for the facility to be shut down. Senators Cory Booker and Andy Kim, both New Jersey Democrats, proposed the Delaney Hall Closure Act after the Aug. 1 death of Edwin Lopez-Cornejo at Delaney Hall, the third prisoner held there to die in the past nine months. Delaney Hall has been called out for having dangerous and inhumane conditions, inadequate medical care, and other systemic failures. Latimer and Congressmen Ritchie Torres of the New York 15th Congressional District conducted a Congressional oversight visit at Delaney Hall on Aug. 4. Delaney Hall is the largest immigration detention facility on the East Coast. The facility is owned by the GEO Group, which operates it for ICE. “The Trump administration is wasting $1 billion on a facility that should not exist,” Torres said. “When we saw the faces of the detainees, they were visibly traumatized and shocked. I’m concerned about the lack of medical care. There’s only one doctor for 893 detainees, which, to me, is woefully insufficient.” Complaints about conditions at Delaney Hall have focused on a lack of food quality and quantity, poor sanitation, poor air quality, overcrowding and physical and mental abuse. “These detention centers are not appropriate,” Latimer told Westfair’s Westchester County Business Journal. “There’s no due process; most of these people have not gone before

a judge. What I see at Delaney Hall is a dehumanizing situation, a situation in which people are ‘warehoused.’ It’s like an Amazon distribution center only instead of having boxes that are coming from one location and being sent to another you have human beings. You have people there who don’t know where they’re going, when they’re going.” Latimer said that when he was at Delaney Hall he asked about the criminal status of the people being held there in view of the Trump administration’s contention that ICE was arresting ‘the worst of the worst.’ “I asked ‘had they done any serious crimes, had they done anything that warranted incarceration,’ and the answer was basically ‘no,’ none
of these people had done a violent crime and the vast majority had committed no crime other than being here without proper authorization,” Latimer said. “The whole thing left me with a sense that this is one more example of how this administration is trying to change America.” Latimer said that he had heard about ICE picking up people in New Rochelle and Mamaroneck recently who were working and law-abiding. The Business Journal learned that ICE claimed to have arrested six immigrants in White Plains so far in 2026 who were criminals but when asked by the Business Journal for details ICE did not respond. Latimer said that local officials are not informed about ICE operations in their communities, with the

exception of a few municipalities that have cooperation agreements with ICE. “Nassau County under Blakeman (Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman, who is running for governor against Kathy Hochul) that’s a classic one,” Latimer said. “They have an arrangement under Blakeman where they’re using the Nassau County jail to house some of the people they pick up.” Latimer mentioned that when he was serving as Westchester county executive in 2018 he signed the “Immigration Protection Act,” which said that the county was not going to cooperate with ICE unless it had a warrant obtained after presenting a proper case to a federal judge. Latimer said that in Westchester, “If somebody commits a crime and they’re an undocumented immigrant they face the criminal justice system the way any other criminal does not because they’re an immigrant but because they’ve done something criminal that warrants incarceration.” Latimer also noted that immigrants have a history of contributing to society in the U.S. and that’s sometimes drowned out by rhetoric. “We need immigrant labor in the functioning of the business economy,” Latimer said, mentioning agriculture, restaurants, gardening, health care and construction as some of the areas where immigrant labor plays a significant role. “When you take this attitude toward immigrants it’s a racist attitude,” Latimer said. “You’re not taking into account the economic element of the work that they do and as residents they’re consumers of services and products. When you create this climate of fear, they don’t go out. There is more than one example of people who have been picked up by ICE because they looked like somebody who was not a registered person. It turned out they were perfectly legal.” Latimer said that the Democrats in the House are in favor of the elimination of ICE detention centers such as Delaney Hall. “We now have a larger budget for ICE than for the United States Marines,” Latimer said. “You need some enforcement entity for immigration but people need to view this from the standpoint of what’s moral and what isn’t.”

Northwell Health, CT State sign workforce partnership agreement By Gary Larkin / glarkin@westfairinc.com
NORWALK — Officials from Northwell Health and Connecticut State Community College (CT State) on Monday signed a partnership at Northwell Norwalk Hospital aimed at strengthening Connecticut’s healthcare talent pipeline.
The initial goal is to engage 500 community college students in a collaborative program between CT State and Northwell Health, the owner of hospitals and healthcare facilities in Norwalk, Danbury, New Milford and Sharon that once belonged to Nuvance Health, according to CT State Interim President Christina Royal. The multi-year partnership agreement – signed by Market President (Northeast Region) for Northwell Health Michelle Robertson and Royal – establishes a framework for workforce development by expanding access to training, certifications and degree pathways to help current employees to advance into rewarding careers at Northwell Health. The idea is to expand opportunities for CT State students, create pathways for Northwell employees seeking additional credentials and career advancement and help address workforce needs in high-demand healthcare fields across Connecticut. “This partnership creates additional opportunities for students and working professionals while helping address workforce needs across Connecticut,” Royal, Ph.D., said. “By connecting education, hands-on learning and
career opportunities, we can help more people prepare for careers in healthcare, advance within the profession and serve the communities where they live and work. Together, CT State and Northwell are creating a model for how higher education and healthcare employers can collaborate to meet urgent workforce needs through practical solutions, measurable outcomes and long-term public value.” Initially launching at Norwalk and Danbury hospitals, the partnership is designed to serve as a model for future expansion across the Northwell Health system. It builds on CT State’s existing clinical and hands-on healthcare training by creating additional opportunities for learning and workforce development at Northwell’s facilities. The collaboration includes joint scholarship fundraising to help reduce financial barriers for students and employees, plans for development of co-branded instructional space and expanded access to hands-on training environments, Northwell recruiters, career fairs and other opportunities that connect participants with healthcare careers. “At Northwell, we see workforce development as both a community re-
sponsibility and a strategic priority,” said Dan DeBarba, president of Norwalk Hospital. “This partnership with CT State creates meaningful pathways for students and working professionals to access education, build skills and move into high-demand healthcare careers. By investing together in training, opportunity and local talent, we are helping strengthen the future of the healthcare workforce in our region.” The initiative will support clinical and nonclinical career pathways, including nursing, medical assisting, allied health, billing and coding and other workforce-aligned roles within the healthcare field. Peter Cordeau, Northwell vice president of workforce development, explained the reasoning behind the need for such a collaboration between Northwell Health and CT State. “More than one-third of our workforce is over the age of 50,” Cordeau said. “By 2035, there will be more Americans over the age of 65 than are under 65. As of 2025, nearly one in eight of Connecticut workers are in the healthcare workforce. That’s nearly 205,000 individuals, making it one of the state’s fastest growing industries.” He further explained that in Con-
Westfair Business Journal | August 17, 2026
necticut, there is a significant healthcare workforce challenge. “There will be significant demand for physician assistant and nurse practitioner roles with anticipated growth in the 30% to 48% range,” he added. In fact, within Northwell itself Cordeau expects substantial workforce growth over the next three to five years. “Through this agreement, Northwell leaders will have new opportunities to identify, mentor and develop future healthcare talent while CT State students gain access to valuable experiential learning opportunities,” he said. Royal emphasized the importance of the agreement signing Monday as another step in meeting a present and future workforce need. “Today is more than formalizing an agreement,” Royal said. “This is about building a future together. That future aligns education, workforce development and healthcare so that we can create hands-on workforce learning for our students. “One thing our students need though is clear pathways, strong support systems and meaningful opportunities that lead to careers in high-demand fields. This partnership helps develop that.”

U.S. Navy defense contractor consolidates CT operations in Brookfield building By Gary Larkin / glarkin@westfairinc.com
ARLINGTON, Va., — The U.S. national security defense contractor Leonardo DRS Inc. said Tuesday it plans to consolidate its three Naval Power Systems locations in Danbury and Bethel into a new headquarters in Brookfield. The move is designed to increase throughput and support for critical U.S. Navy programs and position the company for future growth across the evolving nuclear energy landscape. Located at 120 Park Ridge Road in Brookfield, the new site will provide 141,087 square feet of space. It expects to start relocating in early 2027, with the potential for limited occupancy in late 2026, depending on final design and tenant improvement construction. The Park Ridge Road building, which opened in 2021, has been the global headquarters for Branson welding and assembly technologies. The property was recently sold to Winstanley Enterprises of Massachusetts for $32.5 million. Leonardo DRS has leased the ap-
proximately 141,000-squarefoot property from Winstanley Enterprises, according to Adam Winstanley, principal of the real estate investment and development firm. “This new facility represents an important investment in the future of our Naval Power Systems business and in our ability to support mission-critical customer requirements,” said John Baylouny, CEO of Leonardo DRS. “By bringing these operations together in Brookfield, we are strengthening collaboration, improving efficiency, and creating the foundation needed to support continued growth across naval nuclear propulsion and the broader nuclear energy market.” As the nuclear industry enters a new era shaped by plant modernization, advanced reactor development, energy security priorities, and maritime nuclear innovation, Leonardo DRS expects the new Brookfield facility to provide the space and infrastructure needed to support continued growth and customer demand. The new site will create a

more unified operating environment for employees and programs, supporting collaboration, efficiency, and longterm execution across the business. “Leonardo DRS has a long history of delivering highly reliable technologies for some of the most demanding nuclear environments,” said Jon Miller, senior vice president and
general manager of the Leonardo DRS Naval Power Systems business. “This investment gives us the space, infrastructure, and operational alignment to better serve our Navy customers today while also positioning the business to support emerging opportunities across the evolving nuclear sector.”
Westchester’s budget deficit eases as economic uncertainty persists By Peter Katz / pkatz@westfairinc.com
Against a background of Donald Trump’s approval ratings on handling the economy being quite low, the national debt climbing and inflation’s future uncertain, Westchester County’s financial picture shows some promising signs as reflected in a briefing by the county’s Budget Director Larry Soule. The county’s current budget is $2.5 billion.
Westchester County Budget Director Larry Soule gives briefing on state of the county’s budget.

“The outlook has improved modestly since the first quarter forecast,” Soule said. “We had projected a $16.6 million deficit as of the first quarter. For the second quarter we’re projecting a $9.4 million deficit. Overall we expected expenditures to exceed budget by approximately $43.4 million while revenues are expected to come in approximately $34 million above budget resulting in a net deficit of $9.4 million.” Soule said that increases in health care costs, self-insurance costs, overtime and mandated human service programs have pushed spending higher. He said that on the plus side are sales tax revenues that have exceeded budgeted amounts by $17.2 million on a net basis after sharing of sales taxes with municipalities. “We received $14.7 million more in state aid after passage of the state budget, for childcare and transportation,”
Soule said. “Because we have managed our budget very carefully we have an additional $2.7 million in (personnel) vacancy savings. On the unfavorable side we have $4.2 million lower than budget in Bee-Line Bus fares, we have $1.6 million lower revenue from Playland due to weather-impacted days … which lower attendance.” Soule said that employee health care costs are expected to exceed budget by $5.3 million and preschool program costs for children with special needs are expected to exceed budget by $2.9 million. He said that personnel overtime costs are up by $3 million and $7 million more than budgeted is going to worker compensation and liability self-insurance. “We have uncertainties surrounding federal funding,” Soule said. “This potentially impacts our county programs

like SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program). We have additional administrative costs for Medicaid. We have continued pressure also from inflation and energy prices. For example, the cost for ultra-low-sulphur diesel for our bus system is about $1 (per gallon) more now. We locked in the price this year but if we have to lock in for next year we’re looking at a $2 million increase.” Soule noted that while the stock market has hit record levels, borrowing costs remain high, the median single-family house cost in Westchester exceeds $1.2 million and food and energy make up a good portion of the Consumer Price Index. Westchester County Executive Ken Jenkins said, “We are trending in the right direction. That’s the path that we want to be on. We appreciate everyone working together.”

Lamont wants immediate review of safety cameras, ALPRs in state By Gary Larkin / glarkin@westfairinc.com
HARTFORD – As he makes away across the state prior to Tuesday’s Democratic primary, Gov. Ned Lamont announced that he is calling on the Connecticut Police Officers Standards and Training (POST) Council to conduct a review of the increased use of safety cameras and automated license plate reader (ALPR) technology by municipalities.
Gov. Ned Lamont shown with Fairfield First Selectperson Christine Vitale wants Flock safety cameras, ALPRs and speed zone camera system to be reviewed. Photo courtesy of Town of Fairfield
His reason? “Many of the state’s residents are justifiably concerned about the privacy issues that can result from the use of this public safety technology.” In a letter delivered today to POST Council Chair Keith Mello (police chief of the City of Milford) the governor has requested the council within the next 30 days develop guidance for local and state police departments that, among other things, outlines privacy provisions in existing Connecticut state statutes and recommends specific policies that should be adopted before any police departments implement such technology. In essence, the governor who is being primaried by fellow Democrat and House Deputy Speaker Josh Elliott of Hamden wants “pause and review” the installation of new ALPRs and all cameras. “I am in agreement with the many residents across Connecticut who are seeing this technology being imple-
mented by their towns and are wondering what types of privacy protections are being implemented for ordinary people who are just going about their lives,” Lamont said. “I understand that this equipment is intended to keep our towns and roads safe — and that’s a good thing — but we must have clear policies in place regarding what is happening with this data, who has access to it, and how it can be used.” Specifically, the governor is requesting this guidance to: • Identify the various camera and ALPR technologies in use today (school zone traffic enforcement safety devices, work zone speed control cameras, fixed ALPR devices, drones, etc.) and the relevant statutory framework for each of those technologies; • Outline Connecticut law’s requirements for permissible use of the data collected by such devices, including how long information may be stored, how it may be used, and how it may or may not be shared outside of local and state authorities; • Discuss the relevant Trust Act, Shield Law, and data confidentiality provisions in state law; and • Recommend the policies to be created and adopted by a local or state agency
before any such technology is rolled out by that entity. In May, the governor signed legislation (Public Act 26-14) that includes provisions intended to clarify some of these privacy concerns in state statutes. Lamont’s decision comes only two days after Senate Majority Leader Bob Duff (D-Norwalk) and Senate Deputy Majority Leader James Maroney (D-Milford) on Wednesday pledged to introduce legislation in 2027 to further strengthen privacy protections for residents and tighten how Connecticut regulates the technology. The decision also comes four days after a raucous Board of Aldermen meeting in Milford where more than 100 residents showed up to protest both the Flock safety cameras, ALPRs and school zone speed cameras that have led to $65 fines for drivers. The residents were opposed to the use of the ALPRs without their consent in the name of improving police safety regarding crimes committed inside and outside the city. A similar meeting was hosted by Fairfield First Selectperson Christine Vitale last month at Fairfield Warde High School where more than 200 residents showed up. Many want the speed cameras taken down. Vitale has stayed by the decision of the Representative Town Meeting and the Board of Selectperson to approve the traffic safety program.
Gabelli accuses monitor of gross negligence By Peter Katz / pkatz@westfairinc.com
GAMCO Investors Inc. claims that its investors lost nearly $3 million because a firm it hired to monitor legal settlements missed crucial deadlines.
GAMCO, Gabelli & Company Inc., and Gabelli Funds LLC accused Securities Class Action Services of gross negligence, in a complaint filed on Aug. 5 in Westchester Supreme Court. “SCAS’s failures to timely identify claims and submit information on behalf of nine separate investment funds in two separate federal securities settlements,” the complaint states, “constitute an abject and reckless departure from SCAS’s duty of reasonable care.” The Gabelli entities are based in Rye and manage more than $25 billion in assets for clients. SCAS, based in Rockville, Maryland, monitors class action lawsuits in securities lawsuits. When a case is settled or concluded by judgment, it handles claims on behalf of clients
whose investments were subject to the litigation. GAMCO subscribed to SCAS’s services, to monitor class action lawsuits that could affect holdings Gabelli investment funds. In September 2024, EarthLink Holdings Corp. agreed to pay investors $85 million, in federal court in Little Rock, Arkansas, to settle a class action lawsuit about misleading statements made in EarthLink’s 2017 merger with Windstream Holdings Inc. About 94,000 potential class members were identified, including four Gabelli funds. SCAS’s job was to ensure that Gabelli received checks when when it qualified for settlement payments. It had to submit proofs of claims to
the settlement administrator, handle paperwork, including rejection notices, and deliver monthly reports to Gabelli. Gabelli alleges that SCAS missed deadlines for submitting information to the EarthLink – Windstream claims administrator and failed to keep Gabelli informed. This past February, for instance, the claims administrator notified SCAS that claims for four Gabelli investment funds were rejected, according to the complaint, but SCAS didn’t tell GAMCO for nearly a month, thus preventing it from immediately requesting reconsideration.

Dividend & Income Trust, and Teton Westwood Mighty Mites Fund lost nearly $2.7 million. In May 2025, Jernigan Capital Inc. agreed to a $12 million settlement with 9,900 potential class members, in U.S. District Court in Manhattan. SCAS allegedly submitted claims for three Gabelli funds eight months after a deadline and failed to submit any documentation for two funds, costing Gabelli investors $262,727. Gabelli is demanding $2,922,727 in damages for alleged breach of agreement and gross negligence. SCAS did not reply to an email sent to the press office of its parent company, ISS Stoxx, for its responses to the allegations.

Hanging 10 What, you don’t see the connection between hotel operations and a robotic manicure?, Alex Shashou asked us teasingly.
Left: Each of 10Beauty’s pods “includes everything that touches your nail,” said co-founder and co-CEO Alex Shashou. Right: 10Beauty offers the first all-in-one robotic manicure. Photographs courtesy 10Beauty.
But Shashou, a Londoner who graduated from the University of Pennsylvania in 2012 and began his career at Goldman Sachs in Manhattan, did and does. A year after graduation, he and Justin Effron co-founded ALICE (A Life-Improving Customer Experience), a business-to-business (B2B) hotel-operations platform that scaled to 4,000 hotels in 60-plus countries before it was sold in 2021. In 2019, Shashou and Effron became the co-founders and co-CEOs of 10Beauty, committing $70 million and six years to create the first full-service, salon-quality robotic manicure. (The company has raised $52 million from leading investors, including Shine Capital, Lerer Hippeau and Imaginary Ventures, as well as such celebrity backers as Victoria Beckham, Sara and Erin Foster and Karlie Kloss.) Launching earlier this year in Boston, the company’s headquarters, and then Chicago, 10Beauty opened its sixth location at Ulta Beauty, 5160 Xavier Drive, in Yonkers in July. (10Beauty has also partnered with Nordstrom and fitness centers, hotels and salons, with a goal of opening 30 spots by the end of the year, including three in New York City in October.) Kidding aside about the leap from hospitality to beauty, Shashou said, “Building any company requires the same building blocks,” he said. “It
12
doesn’t matter what the product is.” Yet in a sense, the product does matter. “Building a company is really hard, at least 10 years.” If you’re going to build something, he added, you’re going to want to look ahead, not consider what’s there at the time. When he and Effron were building ALICE, “robotics was in its early days,” he said. And global beauty and personal care already made up a multibillion-dollar industry, now worth roughly $700 billion. Market research estimates worldwide revenue will reach between $590 billion and $703 billion, depending on which categories are included and will continue to grow at a steady annual rate of about 3% to 5%. But, Shashou said, the innovation in beauty has been all in its products, increasingly designed to combine glamour with wellness and eco-friendliness. Where Shashou and Effron saw a need was in the vehicles that deliver said products. Enter their 60-person engineering team at the intersection of robotics, hardware and design, which also oversees brand, marketing, customer and people operations. So how does it work? You book an appointment online, just as you might with a human manicurist. Once you arrive, you select a pod — just as you might for your coffee — which contains everything you’ll need from polish removal to preparation (nail filing, cuticle care) to paint-

ing your nails. Beauty lovers will notice that there’s no base coat. It’s built into the polish, Shashou said. There are also no blades involved. (Shashou said he would be comfortable having his 5 year old put a hand in the machine.) And because your disposable pod is yours alone, there’s no worry about hygiene. The products are vegan and cruelty-free. The machine manicurist is also precise, but, Shashou acknowledged, not perfect. So there are 30 trained human manicurists for each location ready to do some literal hand-holding in case a bit of polish, say, goes awry. The cost is $25 — there’s no tipping — and it takes 42 minutes. (Shashou said the ultimate goal is 30 to 35 minutes.) And because your hands are completed one at a time, you always have a hand free. But what of all those people who now earn a living as manicurists? Won’t this take away jobs as automation has done in other industries for centuries? “We’ve not seen that,” Shashou said. “Look at Nespresso and Keurig. People still go to Starbucks. In fact, Starbucks partners with them,” he added, referring to their co-branded, at-home coffee pods. “Peloton didn’t take away fitness centers.” Rather, many fitness centers use Peloton bikes. “Human creativity,” Shashou said, “will always make new jobs.”

DISEASE
Creating a continuum of care for breast cancer patients By Georgette Gouveia / ggouveia@westfairinc.com
One in eight American women will develop breast cancer, which remains the second leading cause of cancer death among women, behind lung cancer. (The leading cause of death is heart disease.) And there is growing concern because of the increasing diagnosis rate for aggressive breast cancer in women under age 50. Yet since 1996 — when the Greenwich-based Breast Cancer Alliance (BCA) was founded — the survival rate has also increased, from 75% to 90%. So a good-bad situation, no? For Michelle Bella and Lori Kron, who became BCA’s new executive director and president of the board of directors respectively last December, it’s all good news. “The technology with screening and diagnosis is so much better,” Bella said. “It may look bad, but it’s good, because the cancer is being tracked so it can be addressed.” “It’s good,” Kron added, “because we’ve come so far with treatment that there are more survivors than ever.” BCA is helping to ensure that with two major events celebrating its 30th anniversary — the annual Golf Outing, which will be held Sept. 15 at GlenArbor Golf Club in Bedford Hills; and the annual Luncheon and Fashion Show, which will be held Oct. 22 and feature the couture of Carolina Herrera in partnership with Richards department store in Greenwich. Last year’s golf outing raised close to $200,000, while the luncheon and fashion show raised close to $1.3 million. This year, BCA is taking advantage of the mahjong craze with a Mahjong Social component of the golf outing, as well as a new locale for the luncheon and fashion show — Westchester County Airport’s Million Air hangar, where there will be plenty of room for almost 800 guests to savor Herrera fashions in the traditional runway show and cheer on the breast cancer survivors who participate in the moving Models of Inspiration runway show. Both events are key to an organization that since its founding in Greenwich by Mary Waterman and a group of friends in March of 1996 — she passed away a year later from breast cancer — has funded 605 grants, totaling more than $40 million, in its three-component ap-
14
proach to the disease. The first is research that Kron described as “not yet ready for federal funding.” This includes Young Investigator (YIG) Grants, two-year awards for scientists at an early stage in their research careers, enabling them to advance their theories to longer-term awards; and Exceptional Project (XP) Grants, one-year awards recognizing creative, unique research from tenured scientists in the field. The second component is breast cancer surgical fellowships. Less than 1% of surgeons specialize in the delicate, complex discipline of breast cancer surgery, Bella said. BCA’s fellows “get that extra year (postsurgical residency) dedicated to breast cancer surgery and go on to train other surgeons specifically in this field,” she added. “BCA is the only nonprofit funding breast cancer surgery fellowships.” With $1.4 million awarded across 21 grants, including to five fellows at nine institutions and seven researchers nationwide, this year alone, Bella said, “I’m really proud that we’re funding the full continuum of care.” That includes the third component, which is mammograms for the underserved and underinsured women and men in Westchester County and Connecticut. (While less than 1% of breast cancer cases involve men, the risk of death five years after diagnosis is 19% higher.) There is, however, still another component, one that BCA has been

leaning into more heavily, along with its Medical Advisory Board, and that is education. “Because the survivors’ numbers are robust, there are ways we can help connect them with experts,” said Bella. BCA holds two educational symposia a year. On Oct. 1, it will host a free symposium at Greenwich Town Hall, “The Next Chapter: Life After Breast Cancer, Finding Your New Normal,” which will explore such challenges as nutrition, physical therapy and lymphedema, swelling in the arms, chest and other body parts, which can be a side effect of breast cancer and radiation therapy. For both women, BCA has been a journey of loss and purpose but in different ways. Bella, a longtime Old Greenwich resident, spent 14 years as vice president of sports marketing at ESPN, leading a multibillion-dollar league portfolio, and held senior marketing roles at NBCUniversal/Telemundo and Univision. She left ESPN amid massive layoffs and founded Bella Media Group in 2023. “Time went on and I thought, ‘There’s more than corporate achievement’,” she said. A neighbor approached her about the executive directorship at BCA, formerly held by Yonni Wattenmaker. Bella thought about her faith-based family, one that is no stranger to breast cancer. An uncle survived the disease, and a family member has the BRCA gene mutation that increases the risk for female cancers. (Bella does not
Westfair Business Journal | August 17, 2026
have the mutation.) “I’ve never been afraid of work,” she said. “And I was blown away by the culture, the passion, the commitment of BCA,” which has two full-time employees, one part-time employee and many volunteers. “I want to work here, I thought.” Kron’s path to BCA has been more searing. The daughter of a 20-year triple negative breast cancer survivor, she served as co-chair of the organization’s annual luncheon in 2021, joined the board of directors in 2023, and cochaired BCA’s Screening & Diagnostics Committee from 2022 to 2025. She was diagnosed with breast cancer twice — in 2023 and 2025. As a twotime survivor, she said that no one who has survived cancer is ever cancer-free. But in that daunting reality, the Rye Brook wife and mother of two daughters has found meaning. “This is a very personal mission for me,” she said. “So many women on the board are breast cancer survivors. I can talk to these women. I’m so grateful for the community. My plan is to pay it forward.” Close to 80% of Breast Cancer Alliance’s support comes from individual contributions. The balance is from foundations, small businesses and corporations. Over the years, its sponsors have included AQR Capital Management, Avène, Day Pitney, JPMorgan Chase & Co., Lilly, Northern Trust, Omnicom, Pfizer, Richards, Veronica Beard, Yale New Haven Health/ Greenwich Hospital and Z Hospitality.

Stamford Health unveils new Odyssey Group Breast Center By Georgette Gouveia / ggouveia@westfairinc.com
On Thursday, Aug. 6, Stamford Health unveiled the opening of its newly transformed Breast Center, made possible by a landmark $10 million philanthropic gift from the Odyssey Group Foundation. The completed project represents the final piece in Stamford Health’s Campaign for Women and Babies, expanding access to comprehensive, expert and person-centered breast care for patients and families across Lower Fairfield County. Located on the first floor of Stamford Health’s Tully Health Center, the 13,000-square-foot, reimagined Breast Center features a modern space that brings together advanced imaging, diagnostics and clinical expertise in a single, highly coordinated environment. The new center was designed to improve patient flow, increase privacy and enhance comfort, while enabling care teams to collaborate more seamlessly across specialties. “This opening marks an incredibly meaningful moment for Stamford Health and our community,”
Kathleen Silard, president and CEO of Stamford Health, said in a statement. “Thanks to Odyssey’s extraordinary generosity, we are now able to deliver breast screening and cancer care in a setting that truly reflects the excellence, compassion and person-centered approach that define our mission.” Odyssey Group’s gift supported the relocation and total transformation of the Breast Center, ensuring the continued use of state-of-the-art technology, the ability to attract and retain top clinical talent and the capacity to serve a growing number of patients. In fiscal year 2025 alone, Stamford Health performed more than 33,000 mammograms, diagnosed more than 250 new cancers and performed 250-plus breast surgeries, demands that continue to rise. “Seeing the Odyssey Group Breast Center open its doors is deeply rewarding, and we’re proud to assist in the delivery of outstanding care, resources and hope to patients and families across Fairfield County,” said Carl Overy, president and CEO

of Odyssey Group, one of the world’s leading providers of reinsurance and speciality insurance. “Giving back to the communities where our employees live and work has always been fundamental to our foundation’s work, and this is just the latest example of Odyssey making a meaningful impact for years to come.” The new Breast Center reinforces Stamford Health’s standing as a national leader in breast care,
Westfair Business Journal | August 17, 2026
a spokesman said. The center is accredited by the National Accreditation Program for Breast Centers (NAPBC), administered by the American College of Surgeons and is also designated a Designated Comprehensive Breast Imaging Center by the American College of Radiology. Stamford Health was the first site in the nation to receive NAPBC accreditation in 2009 and has been continuously reaccredited, most recently in 2025. Staffed by fellowship-trained surgeons and board-certified radiologists, the Odyssey Group Breast Center offers a full continuum of services, including mammography, MRI, ultrasound, stereotactic biopsy, MRI biopsy, ultrasound biopsy, high-risk assessment, navigation, surgery and reconstruction. The center is led by Mia Kazanjian, M.D., director of Women’s Imaging. “With the opening of the new Odyssey Group Breast Center, we are seeing the true impact of philanthropy in action,” Silard added. “This space allows us to care for more patients, more thoughtfully and with the highest clinical standards, today and well into the future.”

Managing aphids, a common garden pest by Melinda Myers
If you garden, you have likely encountered aphids on trees, shrubs or other garden plants in your landscape. They’re identifiable by their small teardrop-shaped bodies with cornicles, the two tail pipelike structures that protrude from their back end
Aphids feeding on a plant. Courtesy MelindaMyers.com.
They come in a variety of colors, with or without wings, and some, like the cabbage and wooly aphids, are covered with a gray or white waxy substance. These insects feed on leaves, stems, flowers and roots by sucking the plant sap through a needlelike mouthpart. Some aphid species transmit diseases, including cauliflower, cucumber, lettuce, tobacco and turnip mosaic viruses, plum pox and potato virus Y. Aphids, like whiteflies, scale and mealybugs, excrete a clear sticky substance called honeydew. It often covers the leaves, branches and objects beneath the plant. You may see ants, bees, yellow jackets and flies feeding on the honeydew. Some species of ants protect the aphids from predators, move them to another plant when a new food source is needed and some create shelters or share their nests with the aphids. As the population grows, damaged plants may develop bent and twisted leaves. When large colonies of aphids are present, the plant may be wilted
and stunted or new growth distorted. A black substance called sooty mold may develop on the leaves. This fungus feeds on the honeydew, not the plant. A thick layer of sooty mold can prevent light from reaching the leaves, causing them to turn yellow and drop. Managing the aphids will help manage this problem. Before reaching for a chemical, watch for nature’s pest managers to move in and take care of the problem. Predatory insects, like lady beetles, lacewings and hover fly larvae, eat aphids. One lady beetle can consume more than 5,000 aphids throughout all stages of its life. If nature is not handling the problem, try spraying the infested plant with a strong blast of water. This knocks many of the aphids off the plant and may provide sufficient control. Follow this, if needed, with an organic product such as a lightweight horticulture oil or insecticidal soap. These insecticides must contact the insect to kill it. They block the spiracles, small
air holes in the insects’ exoskeleton, causing asphyxiation. The horticulture oil, like Year-Round Spray Oil, kills all stages of the insect it contacts but will not harm any beneficial insects that land on the treated plant. Repeat as needed and as always read and follow all label directions for these and any organic, natural or synthetic chemical. Keep your plants healthy with proper care to reduce the risk and avoid overfertilization that promotes lush succulent growth, which is more susceptible to insect and disease problems.

Don't let summer market volatility ruin your vacation by Ben Soccodato and Chris Kampitsis
Despite the stock market flirting with historic highs, summer months have traditionally seen increased volatility as trading volume slows and investors react to economic data, interest rates, earnings reports and global events.
The combination of thinner markets and a steady stream of headlines can create an environment where price swings feel more dramatic than they actually are. The good news? Volatility is something you can plan for. Why summer volatility happens A few factors tend to make markets choppier in the summer months. Trading volume typically drops as institutional investors and portfolio managers step away for vacations, which means less liquidity in the market and more exaggerated price swings in either direction. When fewer participants are actively trading, it takes less activity to move prices in a major direction. Add in mid-year earnings reports, shifting economic data and geopolitical developments that don’t take summers off, and you have a recipe for unpredictability. None of these factors are necessarily alarming on their own, but together, they can make the summer months feel more turbulent than the rest of the year. Volatility Is normal; panic Is optional. It’s easy to look at a down week and
16
feel like something is fundamentally wrong. But market volatility is a normal and expected part of investing. The markets have rewarded investors who stay the course far more consistently. The investors who tend to get hurt are the ones who sell at the wrong time and then struggle to get back in at the right one. Trying to time the market is a difficult game, and the cost of getting it wrong can affect long-term outcomes. A well-constructed financial plan accounts for volatility. It gives you a framework for making rational decisions when emotions are running high. What to do when markets get bumpy Here are five principles to keep in mind when volatility picks up: • Don’t make emotional decisions. A down day, week or even month is not a reason to abandon a long-term strategy. Knee-jerk reactions to volatility are one of the most common, and costly, mistakes investors make. • Revisit your risk tolerance. If market swings are keeping you up at night, that’s useful information. It may mean your portfolio is carry-
ing more risk than you’re actually comfortable with. Now is a good time to have that conversation with your adviser and make sure your allocation truly reflects how you feel about risk. • Look for opportunity. Volatility cuts both ways. For long-term investors, market pullbacks can create buying opportunities in quality assets at more attractive prices. What feels uncomfortable in the short term can be advantageous over time for those with the patience to see it through. •Stay diversified. A well-diversified portfolio is your best defense against volatility. When one asset class pulls back, others may hold steady or move in the opposite direction, thus reducing the overall effect on your portfolio. • Keep perspective. Markets have weathered recessions, geopolitical crises, pandemics and everything in between. Despite it all, they have recovered and reached new highs. Short-term noise rarely changes the long-term story for disciplined, patient investors. The three-bucket approach Rather than thinking of your port-
Westfair Business Journal | August 17, 2026
folio as one pool of money reacting to whatever the market does on any given day, this framework divides your assets into three distinct categories based on when you’ll need them. The first bucket holds cash and conservative investments set aside for short-term expenses or unexpected needs. Knowing this money is readily available means you’re far less likely to feel forced to sell investments when the market is down. The second bucket is for money that isn’t needed right away but still deserves some protection. Depending on your situation, this could include strategies that provide downside protection while still allowing for growth if the market performs well. The third bucket is the portion of your portfolio built for the long term. Since this money may not be needed for many years, it can stay invested through market fluctuations and benefit from long-term growth over time. The goal is to build a plan strong enough that you don’t have to predict market volatility. Ben Soccodato and Chris Kampitsis lead The SKG Team at Barnum Financial Group in Elmsford.

Westchester Library System awarded $500,000 to expand digital literacy in Hudson Valley By Peter Katz / pkatz@westfairinc.com
The Westchester Library System (WLS) has been awarded $500,000 through Empire State Development’s ConnectALL Office to expand the Digital Navigators of the Hudson Valley (DNHV) program, bringing free technology assistance to more residents throughout nine counties in the Hudson Valley region.
The project, known as Hudson Valley Connected, will recruit, train and deploy Digital Navigators, or tech help, in libraries and organizations throughout the counties. The program will also offer digital literacy workshops and information sessions, expand outreach efforts and connect individuals with free and reduced-cost technology through their local libraries and community-based organizations. As the project’s lead financial partner and grant administrator, WLS will collaborate with Southeastern New York Library Resources Council (Southeastern), which leads the DNHV initiative, along with the Mid-Hudson Library System (MHLS) and Ramapo Catskill Library System (RCLS), allowing the initiative to reach public libraries and communities across Columbia, Dutchess, Greene, Orange, Putnam, Rockland, Sullivan, Ulster and Westchester counties. Through participating libraries and community organizations, Digital Navigators provide free, personalized technology assistance to those in need. Services include basic computer skills and assistance searching for affordable
internet service, applying for a job online, accessing telehealth, navigating government websites and troubleshooting a device. Trained Digital Navigators provide one-on-one guidance designed to build confidence and maintain independence using technology. “The Westchester Library System is honored to steward this important investment in digital equity,” said Terry Kirchner, executive director of WLS, a state-chartered cooperative library system serving Westchester’s 38 public libraries. “This project exemplifies the power of regional collaboration, and by working alongside our partner library systems, we can expand Digital Navigator services, strengthen digital literacy across the Hudson Valley and ensure libraries continue to thrive.” Since launching in 2022, the DNHV initiative, spearheaded by Southeastern, has trained more than 178 Digital Navigators serving 94 public libraries and nonprofits throughout the Hudson Valley. Together, they have provided more than 2,000 one-on-one technology assistance sessions, helping residents access affordable internet, use digital devices, complete online job applica-
tions, connect to health-care services, navigate government resources and stay safe online. “Libraries have always been trusted places for learning, and today that includes helping people navigate an ever-evolving digital world,” said Carolyn Bennett Glauda of Southeastern and the Digital Navigator ambassador for Hudson Valley Connected. “Whether someone needs help applying for a job, accessing health care online or simply learning how to use the settings on a device that doesn’t come with a manual, our Digital Navigators provide patient, personalized guidance. This funding will allow us to expand those services so even more Hudson Valley residents can access the technology skills and support they need to succeed.” Building on New York State’s continued investment as one of the only in the nation to expand digital equity following the loss of comparable federal funding, the expansion of the DNHV service aims to support low-income households and older adults in overcoming key barriers identified in the New York State Digital Equity Plan: Assisting the 29% of New Yorkers

United Jewish Center celebrates 100 years By Pamela Brown
DANBURY – For 100 years, the United Jewish Center (UJC) has served its congregation and surrounding community with a commitment to worship, education, and social programming. Located at 141 Deer Hill Ave., the Center recently celebrated this monumental achievement last month at a special festival held at Tarrywile Park and Mansion.
“We’re honored to be recognized by the City of Danbury. We do our best to serve the greater Danbury area and help make the community even better,” said Cantor Lilah Sugarman. “It was an amazing celebration and coming together of our community as well as people from outside our community.” Both Mayor Roberto Alves and state Sen. Julie Kushner, who has a personal connection to UJC, presented Cantor Sugarman with a special citation. "From generation to generation, the United Jewish Center has touched many lives,” Kushner said. “Since its founding by 31 families, the UJC has grown into a true pillar of our community, a place of spirituality, tradition, and belonging for so many Danbury families. This institution is deeply personal to me. My daughter had her bat mitzvah here, led by Cantor Penny Kessler, and it’s a memory our family will always treasure." Sugarman is honored to be leading a vibrant, caring community. “I’m grateful to stand on the foundation built by the clergy who came before me, most recently our Cantor Emeritus, Cantor Penny Kessler,” said Sugarman, who partners with current Board of Trustees President Art Prager and volunteers to create meaningful experi-
ences and connections to Judaism, God, and each other. “As we celebrate 100 years of UJC, we honor the people whose vision, dedication, and commitment created this remarkable community and laid the foundation on which we stand today. We also celebrate our vibrant present, and as we mark this milestone, we set our intentions for UJC’s strong future.” How it all started UJC began in the West Street home of Henry Dick, a Danbury resident, who added a brick sanctuary where congregants worshipped for 28 years. In 1947, under the leadership of President Leroy Paltrowitz, a committee acquired its current site. Since it was established, UJC has served the Greater Danbury area as a liberal congregation, serving the spiritual, social, educational, and religious needs of the area's Jewish community. “The United Jewish Center is an inclusive, century-old progressive, dynamic, and welcoming Reform Jewish congregation committed to providing a loving and safe Jewish family for people of all ages and backgrounds,” said Sugarman. Today, UJC serves 150 households. UJC offers a wide spectrum of pro-
grams, services, and learning opportunities. Its services, serving people with different Jewish backgrounds, incorporates both English and Hebrew. “Judaism has a rich tradition of thousands of years of Jewish music, and we draw from that by blending ancient melodies with more contemporary melodies,” said Sugarman. The UJC’s Pre-K through 10th grade Religious School is directed by Daryl Bain who has served in the role for nearly 25 years. Also, it offers Torah Study, Adult Education programs, guest speakers, Brotherhood events, sisterhood events, and a monthly Rosh Chodesh Group (celebrating the new moon). “We also do a lot of community service work and have many opportunities for interfaith relationships and dialogue,” Sugarman said. Over the years, UJC has weathered challenges, including funding and attendance, and a rise in antisemitism. “We believe that social action and justice efforts are essential to Judaism,” Sugarman said. “We’re committed to Tikkun Olam (repairing the world) to create a better world through community service, and acts of lovingkindness. Last winter we partnered with the Association for Religious Communities to house the overflow homeless
shelter. In a time of antisemitism, it’s meaningful and important for the non-Jewish community to show their support.” After 100 years, UJC is a reflection of its history and how it has stepped into the future. “Throughout our building, you can see the layers of growth and change, from the fact that we moved into this current building, to past presidents and board members. The names of the rooms are all dedicated to individuals that have helped our community grow and change. “Our growth has changed due to the world around us and also each individual within our community speaks about their own visions and desires for our futures together,” said Sugarman. Looking ahead, Sugarman will continue strengthening the congregation and creating a strong community outside the synagogue. “By honoring our past, celebrating our present, and setting our intentions for a vibrant Jewish future, we’re fulfilling that sacred responsibility,” she said. Together, we ensure that the values, traditions, and community that have sustained us for 100 years will continue to inspire and strengthen generations to come.”
Banco Santander’s purchase of Webster Financial clears final hurdle By Gary Larkin / glarkin@westfairinc.com
STAMFORD – Spain’s Banco Santander, S.A. has received the final regulatory approval of its purchase of Webster Financial Corp. as the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System announced its decision on Wednesday.

This follows the approval by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency on June 12, 2026, and the authorization granted by the European Central Bank on July 21, 2026. The transaction is now expected to close on Aug. 20, 2026. Banco Santander purchased Webster in February in a cash and stock transaction for $12.3 billion in February. Webster Financial Corp., which is the holding company for Webster Bank, has 95 branches in Connecticut and 82 in New York state. “Santander US and Webster are a perfect match,” said Ana Botín, executive chair of Santander. “Together, supported by Santander’s global platforms, technology and expertise, we will create a stronger bank with the scale to better serve our customers and communities. This combination will strengthen our position in one of the world’s most attractive banking
markets and put us firmly on track to build one of the highest-performing banks among our U.S. peers. Christiana Riley, CEO and president of Santander Holdings USA Inc., echoed Botín’s thoughts. “We are pleased to be one step closer to this important, strategic acquisition that will expand our scale and round out our U.S. business model,” Riley said. “Bringing together these two highly complementary businesses, Santander will be well positioned to better serve our customers and clients, while helping local communities prosper. Webster Chair and CEO John Ciulla believes his bank will benefit greatly from the acquisition. “Santander’s expanded scale, enhanced capabilities and financial strength will help us to deepen local relationships and build upon the trusted partnership that Webster customers have come to
Westfair Business Journal | August 17, 2026
expect from us,” Ciulla said. The transaction is expected to strengthen Santander’s U.S. franchise and accelerate the delivery of its financial objectives. Once integrated, Santander expects its U.S. business to achieve a return on tangible equity (RoTE) of around 18% by 2028, while the transaction is expected to generate approximately 7% to 8% earnings per share accretion and an estimated 15% return on invested capital, all by 2028. Upon closing, most of Webster’s businesses will become part of Santander Bank, N.A. Until the transaction closes, Santander and Webster will continue to operate independently. Customers do not need to take any action at this time, and accounts, products, and services will continue to operate as they do today. Any future changes will be communicated in advance of implementation.
