Town

Huntington urges Cuomo to enact LIPA Ratepayer Protection Act Huntington’s elected officials are calling for changes to the structure of Long Island Power Authority despite being engaged in mediation with the utility company. Huntington Town Board unanimously decided to send a message urging New York State Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) and the state Legislature to enact the Long Island Power Authority Ratepayers Protection Act at its Nov. 8 meeting. The legislation, if passed, would require eight out of the utility company’s nine board members to be elected by public vote, among other changes. “It is in the best interest of the Town of Huntington residents to have a LIPA board that is elected by and answers to the ratepayers,” Town Attorney Nick Ciappetta said. The bills were first introduced to the state Legislature in February 2017 by Sen. Kenneth LaValle (R-Port Jefferson) and Assemblyman Fred Thiele Jr. (D-Sag Harbor), co-sponsored by a coalition including state Assemblyman Andrew Raia (R-East Northport). “I’ve been calling for the election of LIPA trustees forever, ever since there was a LIPA,” Raia said. “The best way to control our electric rates is to make LIPA trustees elected.”

Currently, LIPA’s nine-member board of trustees consists of five individuals appointed by the governor, two selected by the president or majority leader of the state Senate, and two chosen by the speaker of the Assembly. The proposed ratepayers protection act calls for the state Legislature to create eight districts roughly equal in population based on the last U.S. Census, by May 1, 2019. A resident of each district would be elected to LIPA’s board to serve a two-year term as trustee, with the first elections to be held in December 2019. Candidates on the ballot would not be chosen by the political parties. Those elected to the board would not be paid, but could be reimbursed from the state for their related expenses, according to the draft of the bill. In addition, proposed legislation would require LIPA to hold public hearings before making future rate changes, give residents 30 days advance notice of the hearing, and hold the event in the county it affects — Suffolk or Nassau. It would prohibit the utility company from increasing its rates to offset any losses from energy conservation efforts. “It would make LIPA a whole lot more accountable than they are now,” Raia said. “Without a doubt.” The legislation, despite being proposed in

2017, has not made it out of committee to a vote before either the state Assembly or Senate, according to the Legislature’s website. No action can currently be taken on the legislation, though, as the state Assembly’s 2018 session ended in June. There are no plans to reconvene before year’s end, according to Raia, particularly with midterm elections flipping the state Senate to Democratic control. The bill cannot be enacted by Cuomo without getting the legislative body’s approval. Raia said he suspects Huntington’s elected officials Northport Power Station are hoping the governor will consider working it into his 2019 budget, which is currently ation pertaining to the value of the Northport being drafted in Albany. Power Station between the town, Northport-East “I’m not the biggest fan of putting policy Northport school district, LIPA and National into the state budget, but many times it’s the Grid is ongoing, according to Ciappetta, as he only way to get things done,” he said. anticipates the next mediation session before the Huntington Town officials had no further end of November. The tax certiorari lawsuit’s comment on the timing of the message. Medi- next date in court is Dec. 5.

Town

Honoring Huntington’s veterans Huntington residents gathered in the blustery cold Sunday morning to pay solemn remembrance to those who have served our country. The Town of Huntington held its annual Veterans Day ceremony Nov. 11 at 9 a.m. in Veterans Plaza on the front lawn of Huntington Town Hall in order to honor local veterans and those across the nation. Bill Ober, chairman of Huntington Veterans Advisory Board, served as this year’s master of ceremonies. “We are celebrating the service of our veterans on the centennial of the World War I Armistice, which occurred at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918, when the incessant boom of artillery abruptly went silent along the Western Front in France,” Huntington Supervisor Chad Lupinacci (R) said. Lupinacci said that the town was recently contacted by the family of Walter Marshall, a service member from the

Town of Huntington who served in World War I, whose name is in the process of being added to the World War I memorial plaque inside Town Hall. There are approximately 8,500 veterans living in the township, according to Councilwoman Joan Cergol (D), one of whom is a member of the town board. “It is humbling to stand amongst other veterans who live in Huntington,” Councilman Ed Smyth (R) said. “It was an honor and a privilege to serve in the U.S. Marine Corps reserve. The Corps has done far more for me than I could ever do for the Corps.” In Greenlawn, American Legion Post 1244 honored all veterans and their families for the time and sacrifices they have made to serve our country Nov. 11. Dennis Madden, commander of American Legion Post 1224, acted as the master of ceremonies. The event included a performance of the national anthem along with several wreaths laid at veterans memorial at Greenlawn Memorial Park, at the intersection of Broadway and Pulaski Road.

Education

Northport school board to vote on armed guards Nov. 28 It has been months since the NorthportEast Northport school district hosted a meeting asking for community input for armed guards, now the subject will finally be seeing a vote. The Northport-East Northport school board voted 5-to-1 at its Nov. 8 meeting to move forward with the vote for armed guards at its Nov. 28 meeting. Trustee Allison Noonan was the lone dissenter. “I’m not a fan of taking too many more baby steps on this,” board Vice President David Stein said. The district hosted a public meeting in March, shortly after the Feb. 14 shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, where the local community largely came out to support hiring armed personnel to protect its students. Since then, the district has hosted two public forums, one on Oct. 11 examining the pros and cons of armed guards that featured members of the Suffolk County Police Department, the Northport Police Department and the Asharoken Police Department. A second Nov. 1 meeting was held to discuss the emotional and psychological impact of armed guards with a panel composed of some of the district’s social workers, principals and health and wellness teachers. As time has gone on, the uniform opinion of that original March meeting has fractured into

‘Armed guards are plagued by accidents and dangerous misuse of their weapons.’

— James Connor

Northport sophomore James Connor speaks at the Nov. 8 board of education meeting.

the two camps of people who support and those against hiring armed guards. James Connor, a sophomore at Northport High School, spoke at the Nov. 8 meeting where he cited situations such as the recent shootings at both the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh and the Borderline Bar and Grill in Thousand Oaks, California, where security personnel and police were shot and killed by an active shooter. “Armed guards are plagued by accidents and dangerous misuse of their weapons,” Connor said. “Guards aren’t a surefire way to resolve an active shooter scenario … Guns are not the answer.” East Northport resident Nicole Raganella, a

professional therapist, said that without armed guards, the impetus and responsibility to protect students instead falls on the mental health professionals in the district. “At most schools prevention is the trend rather than reaction,” Raganella said. “It is your job to provide effective security, and if all these measures fail and a threat is active, are you prepared to tell staff and students that the responsibility is on them to defend themselves?” School trustees raised questions about the costs associated with armed guards and whether they should wait to receive request for proposals from companies before they move forward

to vote. The board asked that Superintendent Robert Banzer and his staff provide the district with additional information on the estimated costs of hiring armed guards as well as the type of guards the district would plan to hire before the Nov. 28 meeting. “There’s a big difference between us voting on hiring [Smithtown-based Arrow Security] guards, which you might find at any movie theater, and the kind of guard I would envision if I were going to do this here,” Stein said. Noonan said the school should not have a conversation about armed guards without citing the social and emotional impact of having those personnel in or near the school. “Some would argue having armed guards on campus increases students stress,” she said. “I would say you cannot extrapolate one from the other, and you can’t talk about one without the other.” Noonan requested that the board also vote to discuss creating a committee or public task force that could discuss the emotional impacts of the school’s increasing security measures on students and their overall feeling of safety at the Nov. 28 meeting. When that failed, the board voted to discuss such a proposition at its Dec. 13 board meeting. Noonan was the lone vote against holding the discussion on that date, feeling action was needed soon. The next board meeting will be held Nov. 28 at the William J. Brosnan Administrative Building on Laurel Avenue. Public session starts at 7 p.m.

Suffolk voters expect more political partisanship to come

BY KYLE BARR KYLE@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM

With the 2018 midterm elections over, both New York State and the U.S. as a whole saw a major upset. Despite local leaders like U.S. Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-Shirley) and state Sen. John Flanagan (R-East Northport) keeping their seats, both the state Senate and U.S. House of Representatives flipped over to the Democratic Party after years of Republican majority control. Despite these changes, many local residents said they expect to see more gridlock and political divisiveness for the next two years. “I thought that it was the point of politicians to care about the people, but it’s not,” said Miller Place resident Rich Jiranek. “They have forgotten about ‘We the People,’ and now it’s all about themselves.” Jiranek, a Republican, said he didn’t see his party accomplish much of anything in the 18 months they controlled both the U.S. Congress and the presidency. Now he said he sees the ongoing push for recounts in the Florida governor’s

and senator’s races and Georgia governor’s race as just a prelude to more political bickering. “It’s just not right,” he said. “There’s nothing fair about it anymore.” The sense of foreboding over potential partisanship was shared by people of all different political ideologies. Steve and Christina Dierlam, both Lindenhurst residents, sat at one of the outside tables at the Port Jeff Brewing Company on a cool fall afternoon, thankful for the day off with their young child because of paid family leave, a law signed by Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) in 2016 and enacted at the beginning of 2018. “Everything is just going to grind to a halt at this point,” Steve Dierlam said “I think that is what we’re dealing with. It’s pretty terrible that we’re the only two districts that went Republican when the rest of the districts in New York went Democrat.” Christina Dierlam agreed and said that while she and her husband have voted for Democrats and agree with a lot of Democratic legislation, she believes government will come to a major impasse. “Whoever is the speaker, the Democrats are

going to shoot down any legislation the Trump administration or the Republicans try to implement, which I’m happy about, but it will just present more gridlock,” she said. Mount Sinai resident Anna Hill said she expects to see even more conflict, especially with recent comments by the now expected majority leader in the House, Nancy Pelosi (D), about re-opening the investigation into Russian involvement during the 2016 presidential election and ties to the Trump campaign. Trump has tweeted that if his campaign is investigated, he will challenge the Democrats in the House. “I think what’s going to happen is there’s going to be more conflict, and Trump is going to be bullying people in the House of Representatives, and that’s going to make it harder to get things done,” Hill said. “I see more chaos, unfortunately.” All those interviewed said that they disagreed with the political discord and partisan squabbling, but it was hard to say how or when it could ever stop. Stony Brook resident Patrick Leahy said that not enough attention gets paid to local laws

that impact people on a day-to-day basis, and the political divisiveness has gotten to the point where people will move from their homes just to live in areas that agree with them politically. “A person’s actions define their character, not what they say,” Leahy said. “This party wants to do that; the other party wants to do this. As bad as that sounds, that has been happening for a long time before this election.” Though not all is doom and gloom, according to Port Jefferson Station resident Tara Braaten. This midterm election saw some high turnout all across the country. The New York Times reported that, by current estimates, 113 million people came out to vote in these midterms, encompassing 48 percent of the eligible voter population. This is up from the 2014 midterm elections, which saw only 83 million votes cast. “I just feel that raising awareness and people being more active and proactive participating is going to have more of a difference to whatever decision being made or outcome,” she said. “We have to have constant vigilance, and it’s still up to us, despite who’s sitting in the chair.”

Opinion

Editorial

Remembering our shared values

We as a country have experienced a tumultuous and polarizing last few weeks and months. The lead up to the first Tuesday in November and the midterm elections set the American electorate ablaze with strong opinions that saw former elected officials receive rudimentary pipe bombs via the mail. With that as a backdrop, Veterans Day took place this past weekend, with beautiful, solemn remembrances unfolding at war memorials and firehouses, coupled with more raucous and celebratory parades happening across the North Shore and beyond. The events should have served as reminders that despite our differences, our shared values and appreciation for the sacrifices made by so many that allowed this country to flourish are what will be truly lasting in even the tensest of times. While we were glad to see photos come through our inboxes and across our social media platforms of these events, we were saddened by an incident that occurred at Heritage Park in Mount Sinai relayed to us by Fred Drewes, a founding member of the Heritage Trust, the nonprofit which stewards the park in partnership with the Town of Brookhaven and Suffolk County. Drewes has dedicated much of his own time to beautifying the park and perpetuating a triannual program called the Parade of Flags, which features the flying of about 100 flags representing American states and other important entities like the military branches lining an area of the park dubbed the Avenue of America. The park features other patriotic imagery including the Court of America, a sitting area with benches, plaques with quotes from presidents and other famous citizens and a rock garden in the shape of the continental United States. The rock garden contains symbolic rocks, plants and flowers that are native to the corresponding region in which they lay. Blocks featuring the names of all previous 44 U.S. presidents and the years they held office border the garden. President Donald Trump’s block will be added at the conclusion of his tenure, according to Drewes. Drewes reported to us that during recent weeks someone tore out former President Barack Obama’s block and discarded it in a nearby shrub. We’re not asking anyone to agree with all — or even any — of the former president’s political ideologies or practices, except for one. “The forces that divide us are not as strong as those that unite us,” Obama said in 2011 while speaking in Tucson, Arizona, after a gunman shot U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D-Arizona). On Veterans Day especially, but going forward, we’d like to see Americans make a better effort to live by that axiom.

Letters to the editor

Thank you, to 2nd Senate District voters Thank you to the residents of the 2nd Senate District for once again providing me with the opportunity to represent them in the New York State Senate. It has been my distinct honor to serve the community since 2002 and I am humbled to be able to return to the State Capitol to protect our way of life. As I stated during the past months, regardless of any election outcome, the Senate Republican Conference will continue to be a strong and important voice in Albany. That includes standing up for hardworking taxpayers, advancing policies that help businesses create new jobs and

new opportunities, and working every day to keep our families secure and safe. With the election behind us, now is the time for all of us in government to put politics aside to work for the betterment of all who live and work in New York state. While no one should doubt that we stand ready to push back when the need arises to protect our region and our state, we are committed to working with all parties to find common ground when it exists. As we move forward with the work ahead of us, I welcome everyone’s input on matters that are important to all of

our residents. As my office prepares for the upcoming year, we invite those we represent to contact our office by calling 631-361-2154 or sending us an email at flanagan@nysenate.gov to share any thoughts they may have. Thank you again for providing me with the opportunity to continue serving you in the New York State Senate and I look forward to hearing from you. John Flanagan New York State Senator 2nd Senate District East Northport

Grateful to serve the 12th Assembly District I would like to express my deepest gratitude to the voters of the 12th Assembly District for re-electing me to the New York State Assembly. My desire to serve has only increased throughout the years, and I want to assure the residents that I will continue to listen to all voices and viewpoints when tackling the important issues impacting our community. I would also like to thank my opponent,

Avrum Rosen, for running a vigorous campaign on the issues with civility — qualities I think we can all agree are sorely lacking in today’s political environment. Now that the campaign has concluded, I look forward to continuing to work with my colleagues in government no matter their political party for commonsense solutions for the betterment of our community and our state.

As President John F. Kennedy said, “Let us not seek the Republican or Democratic answer, but the right answer.” I enter my new term with the utmost confidence that together we will find those answers. Andrew Raia NYS Assemblyman 12th District East Northport

Thank you, Huntington, for your support With Thanksgiving coming up, I can think of no better time to express my gratitude to the voters for having returned me to my seat on the Huntington Town Board on Nov. 6. Thank you for the confidence placed in me and please know that I will continue to work hard for you. No matter our political affiliation or position on the issues we face as a community, we share a common love of Huntington. I pledge to continue serving all residents with the same dedication, skill and integrity I have demonstrated in my nearly 17 years in public service. I will always put people — and not politics — first.

I am grateful to the Huntington Town Democratic Committee for paving the way for me to enter this race and then standing with me every step of the way to electoral victory. Special thanks to the Independence, Working Families and Women’s Equality parties, organizations and local newspapers, including this one, that endorsed my candidacy. I am proud to have earned their confidence. I was further honored to have had the opportunity to run with such a qualified and supportive slate of fellow Democratic candidates whom I now consider friends. All of the candidates in this year’s race worked extremely hard and deserve

much credit for putting their personal lives, families, friends and businesses on hold to embark on a rigorous quest with an uncertain outcome. To those who did not make it in this election cycle, I take my hat off to you. And to those who did, I offer my sincere congratulations and look forward to working with you to move Huntington in the right direction. Wishing all a happy and healthy holiday season. Joan Cergol Town of Huntington Councilwoman Huntington

Hoping we all find our joie de vivre

K

nowing exactly what we want and then getting it brings out the thrilled child in all of us. I recently attended a wonderful party thrown by one of my wife’s friends. I’ve seen this gentleman for years in various settings that are a blend of personal and professional. Each time, he seemed pleased with the fish he ordered for lunch, with the interactions at holiday parties or with the chance to disD. None cuss details of his of the above children’s lives. BY DANIEL DUNAIEF At this party at his house, however, I saw a different side of him that I hope

resides in each of us. In his elegantly decorated and comfortable home, he welcomed us into a large kitchen. People stood around a table covered with various dishes, helping themselves to sliced steak, warm pretzels and a variety of appetizers. While the food appeared pleasing to the guests’ palates, the bigger hit was the wide assortment of wines. With a stream of ordered and shiny glasses at the ready, each arriving guest had a chance to sample from a variety of wines, all gracefully arranged with the bottles of the neck facing outward, as if each container were a person reclining comfortably in a bath after a long day. “This one came from a trip to California,” he said. “It’s my absolute favorite.” He proceeded to describe his experience at the vineyard and the interactions with its owners. “After a sip, I told him I wanted his entire stock of this one,” he said, taking a small swallow, smiling and basking in the familiar flavor

that splashed across his receptive taste buds. When told there were 12 bottles of that particular wine, he asked the owner to pack them all up and ship them to him. He was delighted to share what he described as an extraordinary taste of life with guests who became increasingly animated and comfortable with each other as the night wore on. Once outside his house, he took us on a tour of some of the amenities he had taken considerable time to add to his house. For starters, he had two firepits on a 50-something degree evening, both of which offered welcome warmth against the breezes that seemed no match for the flames. Around the side, he said he used to have a lawn. Once his children were old enough, he had no need for grass he would need to water and mow, and that young children didn’t occupy during evenings or weekends. He had recently installed a putting green for his wife’s birthday. That, however, was just the beginning of the story, as he had the green designed and

installed to match the contours, speed and play of the nearest golf course. First, he said, the installers put down a base. Once they did that, they added sand that they carefully contoured. That process took a solid two days, as a worker walked back and forth across the relatively small space, making sure of exactly the right concentration and height to match the specification. Once the sand was down, other workers meticulously shaped it. Then they put the carpet down. A professional golfer designed the holes. He assured us that the entire process has paid off, as he and his wife have loved the chance to hone their putting in the backyard, especially shaving several strokes off the weakest part of his wife’s game. As we prepared to leave the home after a pleasant evening, it was clear that our host has learned to drink deeply of the pleasures life affords him. Hopefully, we can all bring something that provides such satisfaction into our lives.

The dead do have good tales to tell

C

all me ghoulish, but I like to read obituaries. Of course they have to be well-written obits, like the ones in The New York Times. I almost never know the people who have died. If I’ve heard of them, their stories are usually on the front page. These obits that I refer to are usually found in the back pages. The dead are famous enough to warrant a significant write-up, and I always like to hear tales of people’s lives. That’s one reason I find them interesting. Between Another, perhaps you and me more important atBY LEAH S. DUNAIEF traction for me, is the random information to be gleaned on diverse subjects. Let me give you some recent examples. On an entirely random day, Thursday, Oct. 25, I read about Wanda Ferragamo, clever wife

of the famous shoemaker, Salvatore Ferragamo, who had built a shoe shop in Florence, Italy, into a shoe design and manufacturing concern. Upon his death in 1960 — he was 24 years older than his wife — Wanda, who had never worked in her life until then, built the company into an international powerhouse with annual revenues most recently of more than $1 billion. Now I happen to like Ferragamo shoes, although I mostly don’t buy them. But the obit was something of a business case study for me, as well as the story of a remarkable woman who had just died at her hilltop villa in Fiesole, a beautiful village above Florence, at age 96. Then there was Osamu Shimomura, who died in Nagasaki, Japan, at age 90. He shared the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 2008 for finding a glowing jellyfish protein that is now a major element of biological research. Shimomura, working in Washington state for a Princeton marine biologist in 1961, scooped up thousands of jellyfish from Puget Sound in an attempt to discover how they glowed green when agitated. They were able to extract a luminescent material, a protein, which they named aequorin. He also found trace amounts of another protein, green

fluorescent protein or GFP that would glow green whenever ultraviolet light was shined on it. Ultimately the GFP gene was stitched into the DNA of other organisms, enabling researchers to track those organisms the way naturalists can track tagged cougars in the wild. This revolutionized contemporary biological discovery. Of great further interest, he lived with grandparents near Nagasaki and saw the American B-29 airplane that dropped its devastating atomic bomb on the city. He described what he saw in graphic detail in his Nobel autobiography. Dorcas Reilly, who died in Camden, New Jersey, at age 92, might particularly be remembered at the Thanksgiving table. It was she who invented the classic American dish of green bean casserole when she worked in the Campbell Soup Company test kitchen. Containing a mere six ingredients, the recipe was printed on the label of Campbell’s cream of mushroom soup and called for cooked green beans, a little milk, soy sauce, pepper and some crunchy fried onions on top. Reilly helped create simple recipes to promote the sale of company products. Originally called the Green Bean Bake in 1955, Campbell’s estimates some 20 million American homes will

serve the dish in two weeks time. The Indian musician and teacher, Annapurna Devi, 91, died in Mumbai, formerly Bombay. Called by The Times “a poignant inspiration for women artists,” Devi masterfully played the surbahar, described as a bass sitar. This is “a difficult instrument that few if any women of her era played.” She and her first husband, the famous sitarist Ravi Shankar, sometimes played together, but when she seemed to get most of the notice she stopped performing. A 1973 movie, “Abhimaan,” is said to have been inspired by their marriage and the tensions within it. She then limited herself to teaching and “turned out musicians of the highest caliber.” There was also Tony Hoagland, who died at his home in Santa Fe, New Mexico. He was 64 and “a widely admired poet who could be both humorous and heartfelt.” He found insights and imagery in the everyday, like a pool in an Austin, Texas, park; a spaghetti strap on a woman’s dress that wouldn’t stay put; and, according to The Times, an old man dying awash in paranoia from too much Fox News. Never heard of any of them? Now you have and learned something too, I’ll bet. I did.
