Yonkers ex-master developer lured back by brownfield credits BY ALEESIA FORNI aforni@westfairinc.com

he former master developer who a decade ago floated an ambitious plan to redevelop downtown Yonkers and its waterfront plans to foot the bill for an estimated $5 million to $7 million cleanup of a six-acre lot at the heart of the city’s revitalization efforts. More than three years after the city approved a termination agreement with developer SFC

Yonkers LLC, the reformed and reorganized firm will fund the environmental remediation of the brownfield site historically known in Yonkers as Chicken Island. “As far as the city is concerned, our benefit here is to obtain a certificate of completion once the site has been remediated,” said Michael V. Curti, corporation counsel for the city of Yonkers. The lawyer said the remediation of the property will likely make the site more attractive to potential developers, which would “obviously be for the better.”

As part of the termination agreement, SFC retained its interest in the brownfield cleanup taXxcredits related to Chicken Island. Those credits fell under a state program set to expire at the end of this year. Curti said the former brownfield tax credit program was more “lucrative” for developers than the current program, where the state’s reimbursements are far lower and the thresholds for meeting the requirements for the credits are higher. In order to take advantage of the older program and preserve the brownfield credits, SFC must complete the cleanup of the site by the end of the year. “So they have an interest in preserving those rights,” Curti said. At its April 11 meeting, the Yonkers City Council approved » BROWNFIELD, page 8

lthough he still has some 18 months remaining in his second term, Connecticut Gov. Dannel Malloy’s recent announcement that he would not seek a third term has already engendered talk about his legacy to the state’s business community. For the most part, the reviews aren’t very good. “The governor came in at a really difficult time, when the state had enormous fiscal problems,” said Joe Brennan, president and CEO of the Connecticut Business & Industry Association. “And he was not able to get us out of tough economic times. In general, we didn’t see the economy rebound as we all hoped it would.” “It’s worth remembering that when Malloy came into office he inherited a very big deficit,” saidd Chris Bruhl, president and CEO of The Business Council of Fairfield County. “And that was the result of more than a generation of reality avoidance, both by his predecessor governors and the General Assembly.” That Connecticut routinely finishes low in business-related national surveys — CNBC’s most recent Top States for Business survey placed it 43rd, while it received an overall F grade in last summer’s Thumbtack Small Business Friendliness Survey — is indicative of the incumbent’s overall failure to move the state’s business needle in a positive direction. “A governor probably gets

too much credit when things go well and receives too much blame when things don’t go well,” Brennan said. “We disagreed with him on some of his fiscal policy decisions. The tax increases he pushed in 2011 and 2015 were a little more than we thought was good for the state of Connecticut.” On balance, the CBIA chief said, “We had a good relationship. I think the governor would be the first to say that we haven’t seen the growth in the economy and the creation of new jobs that we’d like to see.” Criticism of the governor has only grown louder over the past year. In January, the criticism escalated when he announced that his plan to solve the state’s $1.7 billion deficit included $1.36 billion in new spending reductions and asked Connecticut’s municipalities to contribute onethird of the cost toward their schools’ teacher pensions. In his recent State of the Town address, Fairfield First Selectman Mike Tetreau said that while General Electric’s exit from the town last year will have a significantly negative impact on tax revenue, “The major component of the revenue shortfall is caused by instability at the state level. This instability is leading to dramatic and immediate reductions in aid, leaving us with little time to adjust.” Tetreau, a Democrat, has given no indication that he’ll run for the governor’s office next year. But several of his Republican counterparts who are expected to run in 2018 have their own » MALLOY, page 8

Edward Ashcroft, an inventor in Lynn, Massachusetts, acquired the patent rights to produce the French Bourdon tube gauge in the U.S. In 1880, he sold the company to a group of investors who eponymously renamed it Manning, Maxwell and Moore Inc. According to company lore, however, the continued popularity of the Ashcroft gauge meant that many people still referred to the firm by its former name. The star salesman for Manning Maxwell and Moore was the fabled businessman and philanthropist Diamond Jim Brady. In 1951, MMM moved its primary manufacturing and corporate offices from Bridgeport to Stratford. The company was sold in 1964 to Dresser Industries, a Dallas-based equipment manufacturer and services provider for oilfields and the energy industry, which 10 years later added Newtown-based Heise Bourdon Tube Co. to its valve and instrument division. Following Dresser’s acquisition by Halliburton in 1998, its non-oilfield companies were eventually spun off as a separate unit. In 2006, the Nagano Keiki Corp. of Japan, which had already established a cooperative agreement with Ashcroft, purchased the instrument group and reestablished it as Ashcroft Inc. Culmone said he maintains a friendly, open-door culture in the Stratford workplace. “I tell everybody that my door is open,” he said. “They can come in here and tell me I’m doing a poor job and that I should be doing such-and-such. I might tell them to go pound sand, but it’s always valuable to hear suggestions. That plays a huge part in how we do things.” Ashcroft also maintains a strong good-neighbor policy, partnering with the Housatonic Community College Advanced Technology Center and the Bullard-Havens Technical High School in Bridgeport, as well as donating to charitable organizations ranging from the American Cancer Society and Special Olympics to the United Way of Coastal Fairfield County and Sterling House, a community center in Stratford. Still, Culmone, a Wallingford resident, said that if he were looking for a location for a company’s headquarters, “I would not see much advantage to being in Connecticut. The people here are terrific and talented and the location between New York City and Boston is good. But the taxes, the infrastructure, the general attitude towards business — I would be hard-pressed to make the case for coming to Connecticut as it stands now.”

Fleetwood Diner closes, reopens over tax issue

BY BILL HELTZEL bheltzel@westfairinc.com

he open sign was out April 19 at Fleetwood Diner, a week after the state closed the Mount Vernon business for failure to pay taxes for five years. The Department of Taxation and Finance slapped a bright red seizure notice on the Mount Vernon restaurant on April 11, took the keys and barred the owner and employees from entering the premises at 520 Gramatan Ave. The corporate owner, Pellchester Inc. of New Rochelle, owed $132,573 going back to 2012, agency spokesman James Gazzale said. The company was formed in 2011, but has been inactive since August, according to a Department of State record. “We are in communication with business owners long before it comes to this point,” he said, “in hopes of finding ways to resolve the tax debt as quickly as possible.” If a taxpayer doesn’t respond, the state steps up pressure by issuing warrants. In this case, there were open warrants for five years of unpaid sales taxes and one year each for withholding and corporate taxes. “The overwhelming majority of business owners voluntarily remit the proper amount of taxes to the state,” Gazzale said. But if warrants don’t work, the state seizes the property. “We continue to look for mutually beneficial ways to solve the tax debt as quickly as possible,” he said, “and return the keys so they can reopen the business.” The landlord verified that Hector Vera owns the diner. A man who answered the phone on April 18 passed it to a woman who identified herself as Vera’s daughter. “We’re open tomorrow,” she said. “He went in today and they gave him the keys. Nothing is wrong. The business is fine.”

Four-building commercial project proposed for Route 6 in Yorktown BY ALEESIA FORNI aforni@westfairinc.com

developer is reviving decade-old plans to construct four industrial buildings on an 18-acre site in Yorktown. Garrison-based ZAT Construction Corp. plans to build more than 100,000 square feet of retail, warehouse and office space on the undeveloped property on Route 6 next to Whispering Pine Landscape Supply in Yorktown Heights. Situated on the north side of Route 6 and bordering the municipality boundary with Somers, the property would be divided into three subdivisions under the plan. The plans call for a 12,500-squarefoot building and 49 parking spaces to be constructed on the westernmost 2.6acre lot. A second, 5-acre lot would have a two-floor, 28,000-square-foot building with 84 parking spaces.

Two buildings, 39,000-square-feet and 21,000-square-feet respectively, would be developed on the largest 10.5acre lot that sits along the town’s border. Each building would house a combination of warehouse, storage, office and retail space. David J. Sessions, a representative of ZAT Construction and vice president of Armonk-based Kellard Sessions Consulting PC, noted that the retail uses on the site would not be “a hard retail use.” “The typical use would be a kitchen cabinet manufacturer, if you will, where they would manufacture the cabinets in the warehouse, they would store materials in the warehouse,” he said, “but you’d also have some sort of a showroom in the front and the showroom would be kind of the retail.” Sessions added that a rezoning for the property would not be necessary, since the proposed use would fit within

the site’s zoning for light industrial park use. Construction would happen in a series of phases depending on the market, Sessions said, which would allow ZAT Construction to sell each lot individually. “We’ve designed the development so that each can stand on its own; one phase is not dependent upon another to be constructed,” he said. The property was purchased by ZAT Construction, a company owned by CEO Victor Tonndorf, for $350,000 in 2001, according to Westchester County land records. Sessions said the project was first brought to the town in the early-2000s and again in 2011. “Then it kind of went on hiatus,” he said. “We’re now back to try and take it across the finish line.” Sessions said that though the project had received the go-ahead from the conservation board when it was brought to

the town previously, ZAT Construction never secured final approvals from the Yorktown Planning Board. “We were basically buttoning up some loose ends with the planning board at the time,” Sessions said. Neither the site plan nor the proposed subdivisions have changed since the development proposal was brought to the town 14 years ago, Sessions said. “We’re really here to reintroduce it,” he said. “We’re here to finish up.” The project will also entail mitigation measures involving certain wetlands on the site. Sessions said a representative from the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation and the town’s former wetland consultant each confirmed the wetland boundary. The board had stated at its March meeting that it would not take final action on the proposed project prior to receiving wetlands approval from the state.

uniformly negative views on the departing Democratic governor. “The end of the Malloy era is welcome news for those who believe in opportunity for our citizens, low taxes and fiscal responsibility,” said Trumbull First Selectman Tim Herbst. “I think he’s gotten it wrong with tax policy, with not tackling meaningful pension reform and I think he undermined the integrity of clean elections in our state with his deliberate attempt to circumvent clean election laws.” Danbury Mayor Mark Boughton said that Malloy’s exit is symbolic of the fact that “The far-left agenda is broken and does not work in Connecticut. His decisions didn’t result in positive job growth or realistic, responsible state budgets.” “Things are going very wrong in the state — that’s absolutely obvious to many people,” said Shelton Mayor Mark Lauretti, who formally announced his candidacy on April 6. “The business climate of Connecticut is terrible — businesses are

an agreement with SFC allowing the firm to enter the site and perform its cleanup. The agreement still needs approval from the Yonkers Community Development Agency. “We have no liability by having them come on and perform the remediation,” Curti said, though he added that SFC is taking on “a good amount of risk” by agreeing to fund the cleanup. As part of the agreement, SFC would split the brownfield tax credits evenly with the future developer of Chicken Island. “I think what will end up happening is once they clean it up, to the extent that there’s a successive developer to that site within the next 10 years, then the developer would have to work with SFC to apply for the (brownfield credit) program,” he said. “Then they would get the benefit of the reimbursement and SFC would end up with 50 percent of that reimbursement.’ For SFC, “Their costs will be recouped once a future developer is selected and the future developer does a project on the site,” Curti said. SFC’s remediation plan has been approved by the state Department of Environmental Conservation, so “They can start probably fairly soon,” Curti said. According to Geoffrey Thompson, a spokesperson for SFC, Louis R. Cappelli,

leaving, there aren’t enough jobs for young people. And affordability is the biggest driver for people of all ages and backgrounds.” One person unequivocal in his praise of Malloy was Jim Wadleigh, CEO of Access Health CT, the state’s health insurance exchange. “His early embrace of the Affordable Care Act is definitely a part of his legacy,” Wadleigh said. “He was the rock behind creating the best exchange in the country. From my perspective, he and Lt. Gov. (Nancy) Wyman were the backbone for creating such a stable marketplace. The state of Connecticut owes him a big debt of gratitude for that.” Wyman chairs the state health exchange board The governor’s actions have been less well-received by others in the health care sector. His budget plan would cut an $11.8 million fund that has provided money to small, independent hospitals and would restore the administration’s ability to cut more than $120 million in funding to hospitals if the state faces a budget shortfall. Vincent Petrini, senior vice president for public affairs at the Yale New Haven

Health System, which includes Bridgeport and Greenwich hospitals, said the system already pays over $200 million in taxes to the state, making it Connecticut’s single largest taxpayer — despite being a nonprofit. Malloy's teacher pension proposal is also under attack. Herbst asked Trumbull residents to contact legislative leadership at the state level and urge them to oppose Malloy’s proposition, which he said would leave Trumbull responsible for an additional $5.6 million in pension costs. “This will cause a very dramatic property tax increase in Trumbull, hurting our seniors on fixed incomes and those that are living paycheck to paycheck as they continue to deal with the impact of a state economy that lags behind the rest of the nation,” Herbst said. Asked what he hoped Malloy’s successor would do, Danbury’s mayor said, “The most important priority is to re-establish positive relationships with the state’s businesses. We need to let CEOs and employers know that they’re appreciated. That doesn’t cost a dime, but it will set the tone that we’re looking to grow the economy and add more jobs.

“The second thing is to try to change the culture of the legislature and the state government in general,” Boughton said. “We need to stop the insanity that bubbles up in the legislature every year.” Lauretti said the next governor “has to firm up our financial footing first of all. The status quo is unacceptable.” The next governor, said Brennan at the CBIA, “has to take an aggressive approach to putting our fiscal problems behind us so that we can truly focus on the other issues facing us. That’s paramount.” “Just being rid of Govenor Malloy will not be enough to save our state,” said Herbst “Connecticut must send a new generation of leadership, outsiders who haven’t been a part of the problem, to Hartford if we are going to get different results from Hartford. “As for what he’s gotten right, I think his willingness to take on some of our infrastructure problems head-on was long overdue,” Herbst added. “Notwithstanding his legislative reaction, I think the compassion he showed to the families who lost loved ones at Sandy Hook Elementary School was admirable and showed leadership.”

of Cappelli Organization in White Plains, and Marc E. Berson, founding chairman of New Jersey-based Fidelco Realty Group, remain partners in the firm and the remediation project. “SFC continues as a viable entity and is doing the cleanup under a contract with the city of Yonkers,” SFC said in a statement. “A sharing agreement will be entered with the city and the future developer based on SFC doing the cleanup at its cost.” Formerly Struever Fidelco Cappelli LLC, the partnership between Fidelco, Cappelli and Struever Bros. Eccles & Rouse, a Baltimore developer known for its transformation of that city’s Inner Harbor, was chosen by Yonkers officials as the city’s downtown master developer in 2005. SFC’s plans for multibillion-dollar redevelopment, which encountered strong community opposition, had Chicken Island, off Getty Square, as their centerpiece. The company proposed a 750,000-square-foot mixed-use development, including retail stores, entertainment and high-rise residential towers. The plans initially included a minor league ballpark and up to 800 units of residential housing, along with movie theaters and a hotel on and near the parking-lot tracts that comprise Chicken Island. Like many developers across the county, SFC’s plans were stalled by the credit market crisis that shortly preced-

ed the Great Recession. In 2009, Struever Bros. dropped out of the partnership and Cappelli took over Struever’s equity interest. Cappelli, who also incurred heavy financial and property losses as a result of the financial crisis, formally resigned from SFC in late 2012. The Yonkers City Council unanimously agreed to end the city’s land disposition agreement with SFC in December 2013. Since that time, the city has issued multiple requests for proposals — in 2014 and again last fall — from firms interested in redeveloping Chicken Island. In its most recent request, the city hoped to transform the underutilized site into a new government center and firehouse. The firehouse would replace the 89-year-old Fire House 1, across from Chicken Island on New School Street, that was condemned in 2015. The plans would also likely include tearing down another city-owned building adjacent to City Hall at 87 Nepperhan Ave. — the former Yonkers Health Center, which houses the city Parking Violations Bureau, planning and development offices and other city departments — and the Government Center parking garage. Chicken Island takes its name from a former island on the site in the Saw Mill River occupied by a chicken farm in the 19th century. Wilson Kimball, Yonkers planning and development commissioner, said the area has been underdeveloped for

more than 40 years. According to Kimball, several firms responded to the most recent RFP issued in August 2016. “They (each) had a successful track record of working with this administration in Yonkers and are already good partners and neighbors,” she said. “In all cases, their responses involved a phased approach, although the responses varied widely between residential and commercial uses.” Kimball said that after reviewing the proposals and conferring with the Yonkers Parking Authority about their needs, the administration realized Chicken Island was being used “as a swing space for public parking, movie shoot parking, construction vehicle parking and public uses.” Kimball said Yonkers Mayor Mike Spano “then realized that with 5,000 new residential units on the horizon, we may need it for swing space for some time. At the same time as that became clear, we also noted that the generous brownfield credits program that Chicken Island was in was expiring at the end of this calendar year. Consequently, the site is being remediated at no cost to the city by the original remediation team.” Kimball added that once the cleanup has been completed and the Department of Environmental Conservation has signed off on the remediation, the city will likely reissue an RFP for Chicken Island. “I expect that will be in mid-2018,” she said.

New York state ranks high nationally in tech jobs and wages BY BILL HELTZEL bheltzel@westfairinc.com

echnology is where job growth and good wages can be had, according to a new report that breaks down tech industries by states. In the last quarter of 2015, for instance, 63,200 tech jobs were posted in New York, for a 44 percent increase from the year before. New York ranked second nationally in the number of new jobs, third in payroll and fifth in average wages in 2015. Next door in Connecticut, technology lagged behind the nation in wages and job openings but remained strong compared with the overall private sector. The Cyberstates 2016 report was compiled by the Computing Technology Industry Association, a trade group that represents more than 2,000 companies and 3,000 academic and training partners. CompTIA, as the organization is called, measured the size and scope of the tech sector, primarily using U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics data and U.S. Census criteria. Cloud computing, mobility, big data, automation and social technologies are reshaping businesses and work, the group stated. The pace of connecting everything — the so-called Internet of Things — is accelerating. Privacy issues, surveillance, hacking, espionage and state-sponsored cyberattacks will pressure organizations to invest more in computer security, CompTIA says. The new technologies and evolving threats translate into opportunities for businesses and for the states that foster them. Nationally, there were 473,500 tech businesses in 2015, an increase of 12,400 over the previous year and the fifth straight year of expansion. The annual tech payroll reached $708 billion for 7.1 million jobs in 2015. Tech workers in every state earned significantly more than the average private-sector workers, with the differences ranging from 36 percent in the District of Columbia to 151 percent in California. Three out of every four new tech jobs in 2015 were in IT, followed by engineering, installation and repair, equipment assemblers, and programmers and operators. While most areas of tech employment have grown, manufacturing has been trending downward for a decade but appears to have stabilized.

California had the largest tech presence by far. It’s annual payroll of nearly $172 billion for more than 1.15 million jobs accounted for one-fourth of the nation’s tech payroll. New York also had a strong tech presence, with 369,533 jobs, 23,674 establishTWB ments and annual payroll of $40.4 billion. Costas Boumis Remote The average wage, at $109,200, was 62 perWCBJ cent higher the private-sector average 7.375” w xthan 7.125” h of3-31-17 $67,200. Computer systems design, telecommunications, R&D testing labs, internet services and engineering services were the leading sectors.

Software developers, computer systems analysts, support specialists, systems managers, and network and computer systems administrators were the leading occupations by job growth. The tech sector contributed an estimated 7.8 percent to the state economy, compared with 7.1 percent nationally. Connecticut had 73,148 tech jobs, 6,272 establishments and a payroll of $7.5 billion. The average wage was $102,400, or 58 percent higher than the private-sector average of $64,800. Computer systems design, telecommunications, engineering services, R&D and

testing labs and measuring and control instrument manufacturing were the leading sectors. Software developers, computer systems analysts, support specialists, computer and information systems managers and mechanical engineers were the leading occupations, by job growth. Tech accounted for an estimated 6.7 percent of the Connecticut economy. CompTIA said its market information, as well as training programs, certifications and events, allows technology companies to quickly understand developments, “and then do something.”

I often mention asset management in the context of discussions regarding an organization’s security program, with a quizzical look in return as a frequent response. It is extremely important to know what is running on your network, how each device is configured, what is each device’s patch level, and how is it controlled from an access perspective. It is best practice to have a Configuration Management Database, or CMDB, a repository or data warehouse for all assets on your network, down to the Configuration Item, or CI, level. A CI can be software, think operating system, or hardware, like a wireless adapter. Many organizations are victimized by aged, outdated, unidentified machines, sitting unpatched on their corporate network, making for easy compromise by virtually any level attacker. Much like asset management, data classification is often overlooked, yet commonly leveraged by the cyber-attacker. We see data misclassification failing to properly dictate the handling of sensitive data in almost every major data breach in the last decade, including the April 2015 Office of Personnel Management breach, a 21.5 million record loss, including Personally Identifiable Information such as Social Security Number, Name, Address, Date and Place of Birth, for federal government employees and

Certainly, by applying stringent data classification techniques, this data should have been encrypted and protected by several concentric layers of active and passive defense tools. These are just a few elements in a world class security program. I know that many believe they do not need “world class” cybersecurity, but given the growing skill and population of attackers, the best way to prevent a breach is to give the attacker motivation to go after another organization with lesser defenses than those of your own.

Debate brews about Brexit impact on Connecticut financial sector

BY PAUL SCHOTT Hearst Connecticut Media Group

fter a series of geopolitical storms in the past year, some economists think a new wave of finance jobs from the other side of the Atlantic Ocean could soon hit the tri-state area. The United Kingdom’s “Brexit” departure from the European Union — a process whose negotiations were formally initiated March 29 by the British government — portends potentially large losses for the U.K. financial sector. Connecticut Business & Industry Association economist Pete Gioia argues Connecticut is well-positioned to take advantage of the upheaval, but other economic experts are more skeptical that Brexit would bring much new business to New England. “If you want to be a global player, you’re probably going to have to move from London,” Gioia said this month in a speech in Stamford. “And if you’re going to be a global player, there are two places you can go: Singapore and New York. My guess is New York is going to draw a bit more than Singapore.”

FROM LONDON TO CONNECTICUT? London will not fully understand its

financial fate until Brexit negotiations conclude. But a number of estimates have offered foreboding forecasts if the U.K. cannot hammer out a free-trade agreement with the EU and the U.K. has to grapple with new regulations on business in the EU conducted by London financial firms. Brexit could inflict a loss of 70,000 to 100,000 British financial services jobs by 2020, according to an analysis last year by accounting firm PwC. In a report released last month, London School of Economics economist Simeon Djanko predicted Brexit would have “negative effects” on the London financial sector. “Such a policy move may trigger a regulatory race with other major financial markets, to the detriment of the global financial system,” Djanko wrote. “In the meantime, uncertainty surrounding the transition from the European Union and the possible changes in the regulatory stance of the U.K. government will be deterrents to new business.” But the ominous economic skies over London foreshadow a sunnier outlook for southwestern Connecticut, according to Gioia. He argued in his Stamford speech the area would benefit from a migration of operations to New York that would extend

Monte Nido & Affiliates, a California-based provider of treatment for eating and activity disorders, has opened a residential treatment program for adolescent girls in Briarcliff Manor.

12 to 17 who struggle with eating disorders. The center sits in a residential neighborhood next to the Trump National Golf Club Westchester. The company opened a similar facility in Irvington in 2014, transforming a mansion at 100 S. Broadway into a center for those who suffer from eating disorders. Monte Nido soon after attempted to open a second facility, first in Irvington and later in Scarsdale, though opposition led to the project’s demise in both communities. Monte Nido fared better in Briarcliff Manor, where the town board chose not to oppose plans for the facility, which are authorized under New York’s Padavan Law. “Serious growth and development issues may occur with eating disorders, and research demonstrates the need to treat the eating disorder as early in the course of the illness as possible,” said medical director and board-certified adolescent psychiatrist Lauren Ozbolt. “At Clementine, we uphold the highest standards of care and safety throughout the course of treatment.” Monte Nido operates residential and outpatient treatment programs for eating disorders and exercise addiction in California, Oregon, New York, Massachusetts and Pennsylvania.

In late January, a fire in the former Alexander Smith Carpet Mills building in Yonkers cast doubt over the Carpet Mills Arts District’s future. The blaze destroyed a dozen small businesses and two artist studios but was contained to a building adjacent to YoHo Artist Studios. The complex featuring more than 50 artists was, however, brought to a standstill. Since then, the artists have banded together to ensure the safe and speedy recovery of their community and now announce that the 14th annual Open Studio tour will proceed. The event, set for May 6 and 7, will run from noon to 5 p.m. each day and offer visitors the chance to tour the YoHo Artist Studios and see how the art is created. Throughout the days, a program of live music, children’s projects and food vendors will be offered. The studios are at 540-578 Nepperhan Ave. The website is yohoartists.org.

global provider of advanced LED lighting solutions headquartered in Stamford, announced that its operating division, Energy Source, has been named a program contractor for a new Small Business Energy Advantage Program administered by The United Illuminating Co. The program is designed to help commercial and industrial customers with peak energy demand between 10kW and 200kW per month to save money by identifying and offering cost-effective, energy-efficient turnkey solutions. Energy Source’s territory will cover six towns in Fairfield County — Bridgeport, Easton, Fairfield, Shelton, Stratford and Trumbull — as well as Ansonia, Derby, East Haven, Hamden, Long Island Sound, Milford, New Haven, North Branford, North Haven, Orange, West Haven, and Woodbridge. It will support approximately 20,000 commercial and industrial customers with energy-efficient retrofit options, including the installation of high-efficiency LED lighting, capable of reducing existing lighting energy use by more than 65 percent.

DANBURY HOSPITAL AWARDED $4.5M FOR MEDICARE/MEDICAID MODEL Danbury Hospital, in conjunction with the Value Care Alliance hospitals, was awarded a $4.5 million grant by the federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services to establish an accountable health communities model that will address health-related social needs of Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries. This is the only Connecticut-based group among 32 health systems across the nation to participate in the project. Danbury Hospital is part of the Western Connecticut Health Network (WCHN), which includes New Milford and Norwalk Hospitals. WCHN is a partner in the Value Care Alliance, a collaboration of Connecticut health care systems, along with Griffin, St. Vincent’s and Middlesex hospitals. Dr. Robert J. Carr, WCHN’s vice president for clinical transformation, will lead the project. “Health-related social needs, including hunger, homelessness and poverty, increase patients’ risk of developing chronic health conditions and limit their ability to adequately manage these conditions,” said Carr.

FAIRFIELD COUNTY FAULTED IN AIR QUALITY REPORT There is something in the air across Fairfield County and the American Lung Association is not happy about it. According to the American Lung Association’s 2017 State of the Air Report, Fairfield County has the most problematic air quality within Connecticut. In measuring high ozone days during the past year, Fairfield and seven of the eight Connecticut counties received an overall grade of F. Windham County was the high scorer with a D grade. But Fairfield was cited with 51 “orange days” that are considered unhealthy for people with breathing sensitivities and 14 “red days” that are considered unhealthy for the general population. This was far ahead of second ranked New Haven County, which totaled 28 orange days and six red days. Fairfield County scored somewhat better with particle pollution. The American Lung Association gave the county a B and identified only two orange days and no

NEWS NOON

red days during 2016. New Haven County scored lower, with a C grade and three orange days but no red days. Overall, the association was pessimistic about the county’s air quality. “If you live in Fairfield County, the air you breathe may put your health at risk,” the organization proclaimed on its website.

AMERICAN FAMILY CARE OPENING THIRD DANBURY CENTER American Family Care will open a third walk-in center in Danbury. The facility at

74 Newtown Road is expected to open in early June. The center, adjacent to the Texas Roadhouse restaurant under construction at a mini-strip mall, will include care for minor illnesses and injuries, sore throats, cuts, stitches, ear and eye infections, fractures, flu symptoms, minor burns, animal bites, rashes, allergic reactions and more. Businesses will also have use of AFC Danbury’s occupational medicine and workers compensation services. Each AFC clinic includes digital X-rays,

lab testing, diagnostics and electronic medical records. The center will be open Mondays through Fridays from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. and weekends from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. No appointments are necessary. American Family Care said it also plans to open a center in Shelton this winter. AFC Urgent Care also has locations in Fairfield, Norwalk, Stamford and Bridgeport and in Yorktown Heights and Hartsdale in Westchester County. — Aleesia Forni, Mary Shustack, Kevin Zimmerman, Phil Hall

The Business Council supported the $100 billion investment in much-needed infrastructure improvements that was included in the budget for projects throughout the state. This funding is crucial for Westchester County to continue to improve its existing infrastructure which will help recruit and retain businesses into the county.

Led by BCW President & CEO Marsha Gordon, the BCW was the first business organization to actively support the construction of the new Tappan Zee Bridge, the largest public works project in the nation. On other issues ranging from the minimum wage to Common Core to the future of Indian Point, the BCW has taken the lead. The BCW has consistently been in the forefront supporting the county’s fast-growing biotech sector including the recent approval by the County of a long-term lease for development of a $1.2 billion biotech center on land next to the Westchester Medical Center.

The Business Council actively supported the $300 million in capital funding in the budget which is part of a $650 million initiative to expand the state’s life science research cluster, which will help Westchester continues to be a world leader in the biotech industry. The budget included meaningful workers’ compensation reforms that provide cost savings for businesses and better protections for injured workers. The BCW’s newly-rolled out Voter Voice Program helped make a difference in getting these reforms passed by providing its members with a quick and easy way to let their voices be heard by contacting their legislators directly. On the issue of allowing ride sharing services to operate statewide, the BCW, its members and the counties of Westchester, Nassau and Suffolk joined together and fought for the ability to regulate ride sharing companies such as Uber and Lyft within their own county Taxi and Limousine Commissions (TLC). The efforts paid off and the three counties can opt out of the state regulatory scheme and allow its TLCs to regulate the services as liveries. Continuing its advocacy role on legislative issues affecting the business community, a delegation of BCW members will travel to Albany on May 23 for the Annual Lobby Day where they will meet with lawmakers and present the BCW’s 2017 Legislative Agenda. For a copy of the Legislative Agenda visit thebcw.org.

Big LEAP Forward for BCW Advocacy The Business Council of Westchester has taken the idea of having a voice in Albany to a new level. The BCW recently launched a new program for its members Andrea Horsch called LEAP: Legislative Enhanced Advocacy Program. The program gives members the advantages of having a “boots-on-the-ground” government relations advocate at the State Capital and interacting with government officials. Andra Horsch has been retained by the BCW to monitor legislative and other governmental activities as its Albany representative. Horsch, who has an extensive background in intergovernmental affairs in New York State, serves as a direct contact point for the BCW in Albany and files a weekly report for LEAP members when the Legislature is in session. Ms. Horsch formerly served as Director of Intergovernmental Affairs at the New York City Department of Transportation and was an Assistant Legislative Representative in the NYC Mayor’s Office of State Legislative Affairs. “We are confident that having a presence in Albany will make the BCW even more effective in representing our members’ positions and voicing our concerns,” said John Ravitz, Execuive Vice President and COO of the BCW.

Founded in 1991 in Tarrytown, the growing shopping center company did five lease expansions in its 17 years at RXR Realty’s 580 White Plains Road, Ifshin said. It will make the move to Elmsford in August. Designed by TPG Architecture, the new office will include open workspaces, stateof-the-art technology and collaborative areas for all teams, as well as various meeting and conference rooms with a capacity of up to 90 employees. Taxter was one of five Westchester office buildings and one Stamford property acquired in 2014 by Keystone from Mack-Cali Realty Corp. for approximately $91.5 million. “Keystone’s willingness and commitment to fully renovate the common areas, lobby and exterior of 565 were crucial components of our decision to relocate our headquarters there,” said Ifshin.

Danbury Orthopedics has opened the Musculoskeletal Center of Excellence at 2 Riverview Drive in Danbury. Touted as the first of its kind in the region, the center will offer the full spectrum of orthopedic services, pain management, advanced imaging, including MRI, and physical therapy under one roof. The new 40,000-square-foot building in the Berkshire Corporate Park will merge Danbury Orthopedics’ other locations — at 7 Germantown Road and 73 Sand Pit Road — into a single, centralized facility. Danbury Orthopedics’ surgical facility, the Western Connecticut Orthopedic Surgical Center, will remain at 226 White St. in Danbury. Satellite offices at 10 South St. in Ridgefield and 22 Old Waterbury Road in Southbury will also remain open. — Kevin Zimmerman, Phil Hall, John Golden

VIP Country Club in New Rochelle sold to Indian charity BY BILL HELTZEL bheltzel@westfairinc.com

he VIP Country Club in New Rochelle has been sold for $20 million just weeks after the deal had collapsed in a contract dispute. Westchester Shores Event Holdings Inc., which is affiliated with the Mata Amritanandamayi Center, or MA Center, in Castro Valley, California, is the new owner of the New Rochelle events center and beach and tennis club. The MA Center owns the 10.5-acre property at 600 Davenport Ave. and Westchester Shores will run the business. “We selected a buyer who is going to continue to operate the VIP exactly as it is,” said Mike Morelli, the former president, who has been asked to stay on and run the business. His family has operated the country club for 21 years and Morelli wants to see it continue for another 21. “We wanted to hold on to the legacy we built,” he said. The club is on Davenport Neck, a promontory jutting into New Rochelle Harbor that has been a popular site for beach clubs since the 1940s. Children whose parents

brought them to the VIP 20 years ago now bring their children. The panoramic view of the Long Island Sound has also made the club a popular banquet venue for weddings, proms and corporate events. Strictly speaking, beach clubs may cater only to members or member-sponsored events, and only during the winter months. But events are held year-round, creating traffic and noise that has irritated nearby residents. New Rochelle is trying to transition Davenport Neck from beach clubs to multifamily housing. That is what Zinrock Resources LP is doing at the southern tip where it is building 72 condominiums. Beach clubs are losing their allure in the New York region but the VIP is staying the course. “What they’re going to be doing is basically the same,” said Richard B. Sandow, a Pittsburgh attorney who represents the buyer. “It will be the same management, the same chef, Nicholas Lagalante, the same people in charge. But there will be more financial support, so it can be bigger and better than ever.” The buyer plans to upgrade the facilities and develop a marketing plan to attract

more customers. Morelli said membership in the beach and tennis club has increased by 35 percent this year, mostly from former Beckwith Pointe members. The demise of Beckwith, which hosted about 200 events a year, could also benefit the VIP. The deal was brokered by Rajeev Chennattu of Regency Commercial Real Estate and closed on April 13. Chennattu said MA Center will probably use the VIP occasionally as an East Coast retreat. Every summer, for instance, the founder and Hindu spiritual leader, Mata Amritanandamayi visits the U.S. and attracts throngs of devotees. The MA Center in California is a satellite ashram of a global charity based in southern India. But the VIP, under Westchester Shores will be run as a for-profit company, Sandow said. Chennattu said the MA Center approached him 10 years ago to find an East Coast location, but he was unable to find a suitable property. Morelli hired him in 2014 to find a buyer for the country club. Chennattu was constrained, though, because the club didn’t want to put the property on the open market and risk losing event bookings.

He saw the potential for the MA Center, and this time the organization was ready to buy. The Aqua Club, corporate owner of the VIP, and the MA Center negotiated a $15 million deal in 2015. But negotiations broke down, according to a lawsuit filed by Aqua Club in February, due to MA’s “aggressive and offensive tactics.” When Beckwith Pointe got the city to rezone its property to allow condominiums, that made the other beach club properties more valuable, Chennattu said. Sandow negotiated a $20 million deal in October but did not immediately disclose that Westchester Shores was financed and controlled by the MA Center. Morelli discovered the connection in January and sued. Morelli said the lawsuit brought everyone back to the table. “It was a means to an end.” Sandow said the lawsuit made the dispute more difficult to resolve. But in the end, the parties made the deal. “We never intended to sell out to a developer,” Morelli said. “It just wasn’t what the family was interested in doing. “We wanted to continue the legacy.”

Greenwich-based doctors group plans Westchester expansion BY RYAN DEFFENBAUGH rdeffenbaugh@westfairinc.com

rthopaedic & Neurosurgery Specialists PC, a practice of 24 specialized physicians based in Greenwich, will open its first Westchester office in

September. ONS signed an 11-year lease for 15,425 square feet at 500 Mamaroneck Ave. in Harrison, a building owned by Empire State Realty Trust. The practice, which launched in 1998, will invest $2 million to build out the office to include 14 exam rooms, digital X-ray and ultrasound space and a physical therapy center. Sally Frank, chief operating officer of ONS, said the Mamaroneck office will be modeled after the group’s other satellite space in Stamford. ONS opened at 5 High Ridge Park in 2015 and has already expanded its 16,000-square-foot space with a 3,200-square-foot physical therapy section that opens this month. The practice’s main location is a 35,000-square-foot building at 6 Greenwich Office Park.

Frank described the practices as the “elite of the elite,” recruited from top medical schools and fellowship programs such as the Hospital for Special Surgery, NYU, Columbia University, Mayo Clinic and Yale University. They specialize in orthopedics, sports medicine, neurosurgery and physiatry, a nonoperative field of treatment for orthopedic and spinal conditions. “The model of the practice is to be subspecialized,” Frank said. “So we have doctors who are fellowship trained in the hand and wrist, foot and ankle, shoulder and elbow, joint replacement and of course spine.” The group takes a conservative approach, Frank said, with about 10 percent of patients requiring surgery. About 30 percent of ONS patients already come from Westchester, Frank said. The move to the county allows the

group to continue to make room for the New York patients. Frank described the Mamaroneck Avenue location as an ideal spot between Interstate 95 and the Hutchinson River Parkway. “Obviously it’s very easy access for our patients both north and south of that area,” she said. ONS employs about 162 people on its staff in addition to doctors. The practice expects to have six anchor physicians at the Westchester location,

with an additional six physical therapists and 25 total staff. All ONS physicians and licensed clinical staff have to be licensed in both New York and Connecticut, Frank said, a process that the practice started working toward last fall. ONS expects to open in Harrison on Sept. 5. Garry Klein, regional manager for Houlihan Lawrence Commercial Group, represented ONS in the lease negotiations. Empire State Realty Trust was represented by its senior vice president Jeffrey Newman, along with senior leasing associate Kimberly Zaccagnino and leasing associate Tara Long. The ONS transaction is one of four new leases since October that ESRT announced for its 294,821-square-foot office building at 500 Mamaroneck. InsMed Insurance Agency Inc. leased 4,500 square feet, with tenant broker Matthew Lisk of Cushman & Wakefield, Genesis Capital Advisors LLC leased 1,500 square feet, represented by Stephanie R. Coleman of Colliers International, and JVN Global Inc. leased 1,000 square feet.

ASK ANDI

BY ANDI GRAY

Diagnosing and correcting a sales downturn Sales aren’t here; this was the third billing month we didn’t hit our goal; looking ahead, we could have a fourth month where we might not hit our goal. Is it just me, or is anyone else feeling a softening? And who cares what everyone else is feeling, I still need to do more sales to stay aﬂoat. Suggestions? THOUGHTS OF THE DAY: There are times when the economy turns sour, just when it looks like it is supposed to turn up. Use data to figure out what’s going on. Pick two or three top priorities on which to focus. Consider the results and risks of doing an acquisition. Look at everything in an organized fashion. Figure out exactly how much in additional sales you need to create. How short of the goal are you? Now start to take the problem apart. Is the problem that you had huge growth a year ago and now you’re trying to digest it? In that case you might want to sit still, maintaining last year’s number if you can, buying the company time to catch up with the growth in sales. Or, have sales been flat or trending down for a couple years? That’s a warning sign. Push hard on the sales and market-

ing accelerator and turn things around as quickly as possible. Where is the problem coming from — sales or delivery? Are clients getting what they want, or are they frustrated or dissatisfied and going elsewhere? Have plenty of clients, but not getting enough repeat orders? When’s the last time you got a flurry of new clients to refresh the pool? How are your salespeople doing — is everyone down or are just some of them off? Which areas of the country are down? Did some products suddenly stop selling, while others are slowly gaining traction? Keep your sales team motivated to work harder. Give them short wins — things they can accomplish in a week or a few weeks. Don’t continuously bemoan that things are terrible; it only makes believers of everyone. Instead focus on the bright spots and encourage your sales people to

do the same. Look for things that can generate profits quickly. Getting a couple good sales will boost everyone’s confidence. Look to boost gross profit, to make up for shortfalls in sales. This will stand you in good stead when sales activity picks up as well. Black swans — unexpected or unanticipated events that overwhelm predictions such as extreme weather, or waves of the flu, or a business or economic crisis — can be big disrupters. And it may feel like there’s no way to control things like those. What you still do have under your control is the ability to act proactively to rebuild your company’s sales. Whatever you do, don’t cut the marketing budget. When sales are down, you should be spending more on marketing to fuel the pipeline. Set up meetings with your top customers and see what additional needs they have that your company can fill. Look for decision-makers in other parts of their companies who also might need what you offer. Ask current and past clients for referrals outside of their companies.

Sometimes the fastest way to fix a problem is to buy a solution. Consider an acquisition. You may want to buy a complementary business, rather than an exact duplicate, in order to open up more opportunities. Hire a broker to help you cover ground faster. Run the numbers to determine how much you’ll make with the additional sales volume; you may be surprised at how quickly the right acquisition can pay for itself. LOOKING FOR A GOOD BOOK? Try “Professional Services Marketing Wisdom: How to Attract, Influence and Acquire Customers Even if You Hate Selling” by Ric Wilmot.

Patriot Bank sponsors financial literacy for NY and CT students BY ALEESIA FORNI

aforni@westfairinc.com

tudents in Westchester and Fairfield counties are getting a free lesson in financial education, some before they’ve even earned their first paycheck. Stamford-based Patriot Bank has partnered with financial literacy firm Banzai Inc. to offer the company’s web-based educational curriculum to students in 15 schools in the neighboring New York and Connecticut counties. The bank, which has seven branches in Fairfield County and two in Westchester, will sponsor the program at no cost to students or school districts. “Every single man, woman and child will eventually need to make decisions that will affect their credit score and financial well-being, from taking out a college loan to buying a car or house,” said Judith Corprew, executive vice president and chief compliance and risk officer at Patriot Bank. “Patriot Bank understands it’s critical that we provide the next generation with realworld tools and resources to make sound financial decisions.” The 21st century teaching tool was rolled out earlier this year, Corprew said,

and distributed to schools chosen by their economic demographic in Stratford, Stamford, Norwalk, Bridgeport, Mount Vernon, Port Chester, White Plains and Yonkers. “We felt they probably need financial literacy education a little more than some of the other schools, and they might not have the opportunity to take personal debt courses on their own,” she said. In both states, students are not required to take courses on personal finance prior to their graduation from high school. “I’ve seen two-year-olds pick up their mom’s smartphones and they’re incredible with technology,” said Corprew. “Why not teach them how important it is to put money into a piggy bank?” Banzai is an interactive online program that gives students a firsthand look at managing their own finances, providing them with real-life experiences without the risk of any real-life consequences. Students are exposed to scenarios where they learn to pay bills and balance a budget. The program also teaches students about auto loans, bank statements, savings and more. “Kids get their own accounts and

they work through assignments that are based on real life,” said Morgan Vandagriff, co-founder of Banzai. Students are given a virtual paycheck and must divide that money into various “jars,” from rent and food to car payments and insurance premiums. They control where their money goes and can prioritize which jars and accounts to put their cash. “It shows them how expensive being an adult is,” said Emily Inman, public relations manager at Banzai in Provo, Utah. “We get many comments from students along the lines of, ‘I had no clue how expensive rent was or how much utilities are each month.’” The Banzai curriculum also teaches students the importance of being prepared for any financial curveballs life may throw their way. They learn to manage unexpected expenses such as parking tickets, car repairs, interest charges and overdraft fees. “Too often students get out of school and they just aren’t ready for the financial roller coasters life can give us,” Vandagriff said. “Banzai teaches students to navigate those twists and turns and come out on top.” Pre-tests and post-tests gauge how well students grasp financial knowledge both

before and after using the software. “More than ever, it’s important that kids develop sound financial skills to prepare them for the real world, and Patriot Bank realizes that and they’re doing something about it,” Vandagriff said. To date, Banzai has sponsor partnerships with more than 450 banks and credit unions and works with 27,000 teachers nationwide, allowing students and schools to access the software free of charge. Inman said sponsorship costs vary depending on the number of schools, students and teachers who use the program. The company has six other sponsors in Connecticut, including Mutual Security Credit Union and American Eagle Financial Credit Union, and more than 20 partners in New York, including Poughkeepsie-based Hudson Valley Credit Union. The Banzai curriculum is flexible and designed to fit the schedules of a variety of teaching styles, though the company suggests planning two to five classroom hours to complete the program. Courses are designed for high school students, though the company also offers a program, Banzai Jr., aimed at elementary-aged children.

to the Nutmeg State because of its lower overhead. “If New York grows, what happens with that?” Gioia said. “Well, if you want very reasonable prices for your real estate and still have great access to the New York market, you just go ‘down the street’ here. And I think over the next five years, there will be a beneficial effect in Fairfield County from what’s happening with Brexit.” Other economists foresee modest, but not dramatic, gains for the tri-state area’s financial sector. Some U.S. firms might shift certain operations to New York in response to London losing its status as an EU hub. But Frankfurt would likely emerge as the prime beneficiary of Brexit because the German city comprises the leading European financial center after London, said Lawrence J. White, a professor of economics in the Stern School of Business at New York University. “Is there going to be an effect for New York and Connecticut? I would say yes,” White said. “Is it going to be large, probably not. Frankfurt would be the primary

beneficiary because the major barrier is going to arise between Britain and the rest of Europe. There isn’t going to be any new barrier between Britain and the U.S. or between Britain and Singapore.”

BUILDING THE BASE State legislative leaders said Connecticut should not bank on picking up many finance jobs from Brexit. “The geopolitical change happens on its own and it’s not something we can control,” said state Rep. William Tong, D-147, co-chairman of the state’s Commission on Economic Competitiveness. “What we should focus on is creating an ecosystem that welcomes and fosters growth.” About 41,100 people are working in financial activities in the BridgeportNorwalk-Stamford labor market area, compared with a post-recession low of 40,200 in February 2014, according to data from the state Department of Labor. The total still lags the 45,600 who were working in that sector before the recession started in late 2007. Among deals announced in recent months, Greenwich-based investment management firm AQR Capital Management announced last November

“IS THERE GOING TO BE AN EFFECT FOR NEW YORK AND CONNECTICUT? I WOULD SAY YES. IS IT GOING TO BE LARGE, PROBABLY NOT.” — LAWRENCE J. WHITE it would maintain 540 jobs and add 600 positions in a project that could earn AQR up to $35 million in state loans and grants. At the same time, the industry still faces vulnerability in southwestern Connecticut. RBS has laid off some 570 Stamford-based employees in the past two years, while the precipitous decline in UBS’ trading led to its departure last year from its one-time Stamford base at 677 Washington Blvd. UBS now leases space in RBS’ offices across the street at 600 Washington Blvd.

The long-term performance of financial services in the area will depend heavily on how cities such as Stamford adapt to technological transformations of the sector, according to a number of local executives. Stamford finance and technology firm G.A. Baird & Co. is sponsoring a new presentation series gathering financial technology leaders that is scheduled to launch later this year. For the likes of G.A. Baird founder and CEO Gordon Baird, Stamford should focus less on financial ruptures in London and more on the growth of places like Sunnyvale and Irvine in California — which both placed in the top two ahead of No. 7 Stamford in small-city rankings released this week by a Financial Times unit. “I think the challenge is when we compare ourselves to the others on the smallcity list such as Sunnyvale or Irvine,” Baird said. “We are way behind what they have been able to achieve. I would like to see Stamford on the top half of the list versus the bottom half — and I think it has the potential to get there.” This article was �irst published in Hearst Connecticut newspapers on April 16. pschott@scni.com, 203-964-2236l, twitter: @paulschott

Westchester’s multifamily market thrives through commercial lending decline BY RYAN DEFFENBAUGH rdeffenbaugh@westfairinc.com

argeting the county’s growing millennial and empty nester populations, Westchester County is adding apartments at a rate double its historic average. But as national indicators point to a possible slowdown in commercial real estate lending, can that pace continue? The Wall Street Journal recently reported that 2016 lending for commercial property was down about 3 percent from 2015, citing numbers from the Mortgage Bankers Association. Most of the decline occurred in the fourth quarter, when lending volume was 7 percent lower than the fourth quarter of 2015. An April report in the Financial Times said Federal Reserve officials have made commercial real estate risks a larger focus this year, ordering banks to examine how they would fare if commercial real estate prices dropped by 35 percent and rental apartment values fell even further. While lower than in 2015, the $491 billion in mortgage loans for commercial real estate last year represents the third highest year since the Mortgage Bankers Association started tracking the numbers. Of that total, the $214 billion that went to multifamily properties led all other commercial property types. Developers and bank officers in Westchester say that there is still funding to be found for multifamily projects in the county, so long as the proposal itself is strong. “There may be concern about projects that could be considered marginal or projects that lenders are looking suspiciously at,” said Martin Ginsburg, principal and founder of Valhalla-based Ginsburg Development Cos. “We aren’t experiencing that problem. Right now, the market is strong, particularly for the type of development we are doing.” Ginsburg Development’s recent luxury apartment projects include the $65 million, 118-unit Harbor Square apartment building on the Ossining riverfront and the

$35 million, 66-unit The Lofts on Saw Mill River apartment complex in Hastings-onHudson. Next month, the company expects to hold a grand opening for the $100 million River Tides at Greystone luxury apartment project, which will add 330 units on Warburton Avenue in Yonkers. “There’s huge potential in Westchester,” Ginsburg added. “One of the problems Westchester had is that it had so few high-quality apartments and so few new apartments, that a lot of people that might have gone to Westchester didn’t even consider it.” Now the county is rapidly adding to its apartment stock. Between 2016 and 2018, about 2,200 new market-rate rental units will be added to its multifamily inventory, according to estimates by Admiral Real Estate Services. That represents a rate double the historic average and will increase the county’s overall inventory by about 2 percent, according to Admiral. “What we’re seeing, if there is a slowdown in banks' lending, it’s more due to individual banks lessening exposure to multifamily because they were previously very aggressive,” said commercial real estate broker John Barrett, vice president of sales at Admiral in Bronxville. “It was the one asset class viewed as being immune to a downturn.” But banks will likely keep an eye on

the increasing supply and what the competition could mean for rent prices and vacancy rates. A survey of 70 domestic banks released in January by the Federal Reserve found that lending standards for commercial real estate loans of all types tightened during the fourth quarter of 2016. About 41 percent of banks surveyed by the Fed said lending standards for loans secured by multifamily residential properties would tighten somewhat, though about half said the standards would likely remain unchanged. A quarterly survey by the National Multifamily Housing Council, also released in January, found 74 percent of the 148 executives surveyed from apartment development firms think January was a worse time for multifamily mortgage borrowing than three months earlier. “The stronger sponsors will be able to get financing,” said Robin Gallagher, senior vice president of commercial real estate at Webster Bank. “For the others, there are alternative lenders that are providing construction financing,” citing as examples private equity debt funds and insurance companies. Gallagher said lenders are likely to offer more conservative loan-to-cost ratios. Last year, lenders offered 65 to 75 percent loan-to-cost, Gallagher said, while FCBJ

now most lenders are more in the 50 to 60 percent range. John M. Tolomer, president and CEO of The Westchester Bank, said any slowdown nationally would likely come from banks and other lenders that focused heavily on multifamily lending backing away. “There are a number of banks that have made a significant amount of multifamily loans, so as their concentrations get out of their comfort zone, they tend to retreat from the market,” Tolomer said. He added that multifamily as an asset class has performed well and will likely to continue to do so in the metropolitan New York market. Unlike the New York City market, both Westchester and Fairfield counties still have plenty of room to grow to meet demand, according to Joseph Apicella, managing director of development a MacQuesten Development LLC, a Pelhambased developer. “New York City was five years ahead of us in terms of producing product and putting it into the marketplace,” he said. “Westchester County and Fairfield County are grossly underserved for the millennial and empty nester population.” MacQuesten has developed a number of projects in both New York City and Westchester. They includes a proposal for the $71 million, 176-unit 22 S. West Street Tower in Mount Vernon, which Apicella said the company hopes to get approved by the city before summer. MacQuesten just opened The Modern in Mount Vernon, an 11-story, 81-unit building at 13 Mount Vernon Ave. targeted for residents with workforce incomes. MacQuesten is also in the third stage of construction for the 228unit Heritage Homes public apartment and townhouse complex in New Rochelle. Apicella said the strength of Westchester’s market for multifamily real estate investment is clear from the number of developers attracted here. “You see it happening in White Plains, there are cranes in the air, you see it in New Rochelle, you see it in Yonkers,” he said. “I don’t see anybody struggling to get financing on jobs that are solid, I don’t see that at all.” WCBJ

Mooney returns to private sector as Signature Bank executive BY JOHN GOLDEN jgolden@westfairinc.com

estchester County’s former economic development director William M. Mooney III has returned to the private sector after seven years in the county executive’s office, joining Signature Bank’s private client banking team in Greenwich as a group director and senior vice president. He will be based in the bank’s White Plains office. His appointment was announced on April 17. The commercial bank also named a new four-person private client banking team with long business ties in Westchester for its White Plains office. Mooney was a lawyer in private practice in Westchester when he joined the Republican administration of newly elected County Executive Robert P. Astorino in 2010 as senior assistant for government operations. In an intraoffice shuffle, he was named director of the county Office of Economic Development in June 2014, where he led operations of the county Industrial Development Agency and Local Development Corp. as their executive director and also oversaw the county Office of Tourism and Film. Mooney resigned his post in March. Astorino named George Oros, a former county legislator and his chief of staff for seven years, to succeed the attorney as economic development director. A graduate of Pace Law School, Mooney previously was a partner at the law firm of Plunkett & Jaffe Group of McKenna Long & Aldridge LLP and corporate counsel for the city of Yonkers. Signature Bank officials in the announcement said he brings “a plethora of key contacts and relationships throughout Westchester County and New York state to his new role” on the private client team. Joseph J. DePaolo, Signature Bank co-founder, president and CEO, said “the relationships he has forged will prove beneficial to our role within the Westchester commercial banking arena.” Led by Michael Maloney and Nick Mucilli, the new private client team in White Plains moved to Signature from Sterling National Bank’s Yonkers and White Plains offices. Maloney and Mucilli each were named group director and senior vice president at Signature, while Daniel Olimpio and Lindsey Robertson each will serve as associate group director and vice president. Maloney spent 24 of his 30 years in the finance and banking industry at Sterling and Hudson Valley Bank before its merg-

er with Sterling in 2015. He was senior managing director/senior vice president at Sterling and was chief banking officer/ executive vice president at Hudson Valley, managing the Yonkers-based bank’s commercial business activities. Mucilli, who also has 30 years in banking, most recently was senior managing director/director of cash management at Sterling and developed the cash management division for Hudson Valley Bank near-

ly nine years ago. He previously worked in retail banking and business development at Bank of New York in White Plains for more than 15 years. “We begin 2017 with further opportunities to attract additional veteran private client banking teams who bring extensive expertise to our network,” DePaolo said. He called Westchester and its business community “an important growth area for the bank.”

Headquartered in Manhattan, Signature Bank has 30 private client offices throughout the New York metropolitan area that serve privately owned businesses, their owners and senior managers. Since its start in 2001, the bank has grown to $39.05 billion in assets, $29.04 billion in loans, $31.86 billion in deposits, $3.61 billion in equity capital and $3.35 billion in other assets under management at the close of 2016.

Lenders cautious but continuing with retail property owners BY PHIL HALL

phall@westfairinc.com

n the past few months, the regional retail sector weathered a skein of closures and announced scheduled closings from several chain retailers. Bob’s Stores, Eastern Mountain Sports, J.C. Penney, Macy’s, Mrs. Green’s Natural Markets, Payless and rue21 were in the process of exiting the region or had already left. Other national retailers, including GameStop and Staples, have announced plans to close stores, but whether their Fairfield and Westchester locations will be included is uncertain. Across the nation, the retail climate is facing a very rough patch. Standard & Poor’s issued a report in late February that forecast “increased levels of stress for the sector in 2017.” According to a Business Insider report, more than 3,000 stores are expected to close nationwide over the next several months. A sense of doom and gloom is already filtering into the media: Business Insider’s headline warned of a “retail apocalypse” creating a “slow-rolling crisis.” “There have been a lot of headlines that retail is in free fall and some call it

the next Big Short — the 2017 variety of the subprime mortgage market,” said Manus Clancy, managing director at Trepp LLC, a New York City-based provider of commercial mortgage data and analytics. Jamie Woodwell, vice president of economics and research for the Mortgage Bankers Association, a trade group in Washington, D.C., said the retail sector has been lagging within the wider realm of

commercial lending. “There tends to be certain property types at any given point of time that move forward,” Woodwell said. “Multifamily has been a longtime belle of the ball and industrial properties are getting a lot of interest lately. But retail lending declined by 5 percent from 2015 to 2016.” Clancy noted that the departure of a single retailer may not prove fatal to a

shopping center, especially smaller players like Payless or RadioShack, which are not anchor stores. But the closure of five or six smaller stores in a single location is “death by a thousand cuts,” he said, for a property owner approaching lenders. “It depends on where a borrower sits in terms of the quality of the property and when his debt comes due,” Clancy sad. “If it is a guy with a marginal performing property and the loan comes due in the next six months, he might find a way to get the property refinanced, but it will not be easy. But if the loan covers enough debt servicing and is not due for six years, he can hope for a brighter day coming.” Clancy said today’s retail lending has been buffered by “conservative underwriting, very low loan-to-value and a high debt services coverage ratio.” While the increasing market share of e-commerce sites at the expense of brickand-mortar retail rivals shows no signs of weakening, area bankers indicated they are not about to give up on retail lending. They emphasize their strong business relationships with retail property owners seeking new funds or refinancing. “We’re strict with lending requirements » RETAIL, page 31

but easy to work with because we’re local,” said Christopher Gruseke, president and CEO of Bankwell Financial Group Inc. in New Canaan. “We’ve worked with a lot of our borrowers for years. You have to know your customer, you just can’t wade into this.” Gruseke said Bankwell underwriters place a strong emphasis on the concentrated risk of the property in question and run an analysis to determine whether a project is sustainable or would be severely stressed with the loss of tenants. “We’re always mindful who we are lending to, how big they are and if they have a very robust credit function,” he said. John M. Tolomer, president and CEO of The Westchester Bank in White Plains, also acknowledged the challenges facing retail, but noted that careful underwriting will ultimately benefit both his bank and borrowers. “We will evaluate each and every loan on its own merits,” he said. “It is not a one-size-fits-all — each loan has to be looked at and reviewed very carefully.” Owners of retail centers apparently are not finding it impossible to secure credit. “I’ve not heard from anybody on it,” said Peter Gioia, vice president and economist for the Connecticut Business and Industry Association in Hartford. “It depends on what the property is and if it is readily redevelopable.” Redeveloping retail space vacated by big box or national chains could be the solution for owners and lenders to a changing retail shopping market. Joseph D. Roberto, chairman, president and CEO of Putnam County Savings Bank in Yorktown Heights, said repurposing a vacant retail space for different uses, particularly to support locally owned specialty stores, is a win-win situation. “We see that happen quite often,” Roberto said. “We had a borrower with a well-positioned retail center losing one of its box retailers. They came to us to finance the cost of repurposing that site to bring in some specialty stores.” Repurposing underperforming properties is not unique to retail spaces, Roberto said. “Wegmans is coming in on 287 in a property that was originally purposed for office space.” Wegmans Food Markets Inc, the upstate grocery store chain headquartered in Rochester, last December announced plans to build a $30 million, 125,000-square-foot grocery store with up to 500 jobs on a Platinum Mile office-park site off I-287 in the town of Harrison, where the owner, Normandy Real Estate Partners, has vacated tenants from three office buildings that will be razed.

ing many of its branches as smaller, more efficient operations, partly through the introduction of interactive teller machines, which can extend banking hours while adding personality and the ability to conduct a wider variety of business to generic ATMs. Muskus said that the bank’s first ITM at the Trumbull Mall has received mostly positive feedback from customers. Patriot also plans to introduce ITMs at several existing branches this year. “This also allows us to staff differently, and we no longer need to look for big offices located at big intersections in the cities we serve,” Muskus said. “We can effectively work out of smaller offices, which works well in terms of customer convenience.” At M&T, “We’re still working with

the integration of Hudson City,” a bank acquisition valued at $5.5 billion when it was finalized in 2015, said Frank Micalizzi, M&T’s regional president for the Connecticut, Westchester, Rockland and Bronx markets. “So we have no plans at the moment to open new branches in Fairfield County. However, we are very opportunistic and will continue to look for acquisitions and new buildings to help serve our consumer clients.” Micalizzi said that the bank is opening a branch in The Bronx in May. Finding commercial lending talent is a perennial problem. “Hiring remains a challenge,” Giobbi said. “There is always demand for good commercial lending talent, but the banks have not done a particularly good job of

training and developing the next generation of commercial lenders. We see an opportunity to partner with local university business schools to develop programs to train the next generation of bankers.” “There’s definitely a scarcity of new talent,” Muskus agreed. “When they become available, the banks compete very hard for them.” “Finding good talent across the board, in any industry, can be difficult,” said Weinstock. “Identifying and nurturing someone who’s equally adept at lending, marketing and new-client acquisition isn’t always easy. But we are one of the few banks that has a formal training program, where we bring in talented young people and hopefully groom them to be longterm employees.”

LOCAL SENIOR ‘CLOWNS AROUND’ AT STAMFORD HOSPITAL

FCCF APPOINTS HYACINTH AS DIRECTOR

Tricia Hyacinth

Nancy Cross volunteers as a “caring clown” for patients at Stamford Hospital.

Nancy Cross, an 83-year-old resident of the Meadow Ridge retirement community in Redding, volunteers as a “caring clown” at Stamford Hospital. Twice a month, Cross engages patients for a few hours, performing magic acts, songs and jokes, as well as creating balloon animals. According to a report from the Corporation for National & Community Service, Cross is part of the more than 23 percent of adults nationwide, age 65 and older, who volunteer on an annual basis, contributing nearly two billion hours and more than $45 billion worth of services. For Cross, inspiration struck when, at age 68, she participated in “Lifetime Learners,” a six-week course offered at Norwalk Community College that taught students about the basics of how to be a “caring clown.” She enjoyed the experience so much, that she later enrolled in another four-week course with the Health and Humor Associates, a group of clowns who volunteer at Stamford Hospital.

Fairfield County’s Community Foundation (FCCF), an organization that promotes philanthropy as a means to create change in Fairfield County, appointed Tricia Hyacinth of Monroe as the director of its Fund for Women & Girls initiative. The Fund for Women & Girls, a special interest fund of FCCF, works to engage philanthropists and invest in sustainable solutions that lead to economically secure and healthy women throughout the region. Since 1998, the fund has invested nearly $5 million in grants to programs serving females, age 5 to 90. Hyacinth joined FCCF four years ago, during which she spearheaded the creation of the Girls Symposium, an initiative for the fund that brings together practitioners to learn about best practices for improving the health, safety and success of young women. She also directs the annual Girls Leadership Summit, which brings together more than 100 middle-school students for a day of networking, skill building and leadership experience. Hyacinth manages a competitive grant-making program, as well as many aspects of the Fund for Women & Girls’ annual spring luncheon, which this year, will support the Family Economic Security Program (FESP) at Housatonic Community College. As director, she will provide leadership for all of the fund’s programs, initiatives and events, including serving as the lead for the FESP at the college.

CONNECTICUT CAN’T AFFORD MORE TAX HIKES

Last November, Connecticut voters said taxes were too high, state government spending was out of control, and our state was becoming unaffordable. Now it’s time for our elected leaders to live up to their promises and get Connecticut back on track. That starts with a responsible state budget.

HERE ARE THE FACTS “Connecticut employers are adding jobs half as fast as all U.S. employers.”

“Connecticut ranked almost dead last in fiscal health only ahead of Puerto Rico, which scored very last in every category.”

WILMINGTON TRUST RENOWNED INSIGHT

“Shouldn’t you decide what will become of your business?”

Bruce F. Hoffmeister Director of Wealth and Fiduciary Planning Bruce has more than two decades of experience in estate and financial planning for closely held business owners and their families. He is part of a seasoned team of professionals who exemplify Wilmington Trust’s 114-year heritage of successfully advising business owners. Our goal is to help you create a plan for each stage of your business and your life, offering key insights at critical times of transition. For access to knowledgeable professionals like Bruce and the rest of our team, contact Sharon Klein at 212-415-0547.

Heads of successful family businesses are often reluctant to share control and involve other family members in the management process. But do you know what would happen to your business if you suddenly became incapacitated or worse, passed away? Who would step in to manage day-to-day operations? And even if you have a successor in mind, is that successor ready and capable of stepping up and running the business? Starting early. Ideally, succession planning should begin the day you take over a business. Of course, that isn’t always realistic given the amount of work running a business takes, but succession planning needs to be a top priority. Most importantly, you will need to decide if you want to keep the business in the family or eventually sell it. Looking down the road. To make the important decisions, you have to think about how you envision your retirement. You’ll need to determine if you want to be actively involved in the business in some capacity for the remainder of your life. You should ask yourself if you want to be chairman of the board and collect the net income. And

you should know whether the business will generate sufficient cash flow to support you and your family in retirement.
