Residents object as BZA considers hotel project BY DAVID LUCES DLUCES@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM
Watermill Caterers in Smithtown seeks nine variances to build a 130-room hotel. Photo from the Town of Smithtown
Currently, Scotto’s application is asking for nine variances, including permission to increase the maximum building height for the four-floor hotel from 35 to 45 feet, increase the number of rooms from 100 to 130, and to decrease required parking from 501 spaces to 337.
William Lahti, an engineer for Scotto, argued despite the property being a splitzoned, the town has to consider the entire site area and not just the one portion as it is one continuous site. “If you only use WSI [wholesale and industry], that generates the nature of these
variances,” he said. “If you use the entire area, these variances are moot. You don’t need them.” Lahti mentioned they would need the 130 rooms to make the hotel financially CONTINUED ON A6

Smithtown residents continued to voice opposition to the proposed 130-room hotel to be constructed on the Watermill Caterers’ catering hall at a July 16 Town of Smithtown Board of Zoning Appeals hearing, while representatives for Anthony Scotto, the developer, argued that the town incorrectly calculated variance requirements for the project. “We meet the special exception requirements, therefore the hotel must be granted,” Don King, Scotto’s lawyer, told the board. The remark drew a sarcastic chuckle from the crowd. “This isn’t ‘Dancing with the Stars,’ where applause counts,” King added. The 7-acre property at Smithtown Bypass on Route 347 and Terry Road is comprised of multiple zones: neighborhood business, which does not allow for a hotel; and wholesale and industry zone, which allows a potential hotel development. “He [Scotto] has an absolute right to improve his property, it is zoned for a hotel,” King said. “The only question before you now are the variances that planning [board] came up with that are incorrect.”

Lawyer raises awareness and funds to cure blood cancer BY DONNA DEEDY DONNA@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM Asaf German said he grew up with nothing and played stickball in the streets of Brooklyn. This year, the 47-year-old Lloyd Neck resident has become Long Island’s official Man of the Year for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society after raising a record-breaking $470,000 in 10 weeks. “What he’s been able to accomplish is priceless,” said Meagan Doyle, who serves as campaign director for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society in its Melville office. Each year the society recruits candidates to compete and run a 10-week fundraising campaign. Proceeds go towards finding a cure for blood cancers leukemia, lymphoma myeloma and Hodgkin’s disease. Eight candidates on Long Island competed and collectively raised $863,000 for the organization. German, who raised more than anyone ever has on Long Island, pulled together a team of 75 people, mostly women, who helped him organize events and solicit donations. In total, more than 5,000 people contributed to German’s team with donations ranging from $5 to $55,000. “Nobody said no,” German said. “I am a machine and found very special, passionate, amazing, like-minded people to help.” Two pediatric cancer patients or survivors participate in the society’s Man of the Year campaign as Boy and Girl of the Year honorees. Jesse Pallas, age 12, of Miller
Place and Morgan Sim, age 5, of Port Washington served as inspiration for German and his team. “When I met Asaf in person for the first time, he shook my hand and said I’m going to win this thing. Who would have known that just 10 weeks later he would raise $470,000,” said RuRu Sim, Morgan’s mother. “It was almost unbelievable and he turned my skepticism into pure admiration. Asaf poured his heart and soul into the Man of the Year campaign and he helped us take a huge step closer to finding a cure for cancer. The cancer community is so blessed to have found such a dedicated and wonderful man!” Prior to the fundraising campaign, German, a real estate attorney, knew nothing about fundraising or blood cancer diseases. He’s become passionate about the cause. “It’s been the second most rewarding experience of my life after having children,” German said. Nationally, the society raised $52 million through the Man of the Year campaigns. German ranked eighth nationally in total funds raised. German thanks Mary Jo White, who had previously pulled together a Woman of the Year campaign for the society. He said she shared fundraising suggestions with him. He’s become close with White and her husband through the society’s fundraising mission. So close, he said he spent Christmas with them. “People keep telling me ‘Do you realize

the magnitude of what you just did,’” said German. “I can’t stop here. I’m a machine.” He’s recruiting now for next year’s ambassador. German’s two children, with the help of a committee at Accompsett Elementary and
Middle Schools, where they’re students, raised $500 for the cause at Ralph’s Italian Ices on Maple Avenue in Smithtown. “It’s not all about the money,” German said. “It’s about raising awareness and saving people’s lives.”

Veterans in shelter need clothing Long Island veterans living in homeless shelters are in need of clothing. American Legion Post 833 of Smithtown and VFW Post 10870 are partnering with AARP volunteers and United Veterans Beacon House to hold a new and/or gently used clothing drive for veterans and their families in need. “We urge folks to consider donations of used clothing, or to consider purchasing a small pack of socks, T-shirts, etc. when shopping at their local Target, Walmart,
etc., and dropping these donations off at the collection bin,” said VFW Service Officer Tom Mooney. A collection bin has been placed at the Legion post at 51 Juniper Avenue in Smithtown. Smithtown Town Hall will serve as a secondary drop-off location for residents. The collection efforts will run for approximately four months, from July through October. Accepted donation items include new and/or gently worn clothing for men, women and children, as well as new
sheets and bedding. United Veterans Beacon House will collect the donated items regularly and provide them to homeless veterans currently residing in Beacon House facilities. AARP volunteer Olive Makris, who is spearheading the clothes drive, looks forward to a strong community response. For additional information about this drive, contact Tom Mooney at 631-834-4128, or stop by the post on Saturday mornings.

Suffolk police rescue kayakers in wind storm Suffolk County Police Marine Bureau officers rescued a mother and daughter who were blown offshore while kayaking on the Long Island Sound July 19. Noreen McLoughlin, 54, and her daughter Dana, 19, departed from Sunken Meadow Beach to kayak on the Long Island Sound at approximately 8 p.m. Once offshore and after darkness fell, they found the wind was too strong and they were having difficulty
paddling their 13-foot kayak back to shore. Noreen’s husband Joseph McLoughlin, 47, of Levittown had remained on shore and called 911. The Suffolk County Police Department dispatched two rescue boats and a helicopter to search for his wife and daughter. The New York State Park Police, Smithtown Fire Department and U.S. Coast Guard also responded. Police Officers Christopher
DeFeo and Anthony Chin aboard Marine Delta arrived in the search area and noticed the light of a cell phone in the distance, which led them to the kayak. Officers brought the two women aboard the police boat and transported them safely to shore at the Kings Park Boat Ramp on the Nissequogue River where they were reunited with Joseph McLoughlin. Both were wearing life jackets, and neither required medical attention.
feasible and if they can’t get it, they will not be able to fund the project. Other representatives for Scotto said the hotel would not greatly affect traffic in the area, pointing out many guests would be attending events at the catering hall. Also, according to Scotto’s team, about $650,000 in tax revenue would come into this town with no strain on the surrounding school district. Residents were still not convinced of the proposed $28 million project. Sarah Grimaldi, of Smithtown, said the project would negatively impact the character of surrounding neighborhoods. “We’re living here, we all have mortgages, families to raise,” she said. “We can’t go anywhere, these are our homes.” Grimaldi said it is up to the board to make sure that the area stays a safe residential community. “This project will set a precedent for other businesses that want to come in,” she said. Residents brought up how Scotto’s Insignia restaurant, also on Smithtown Bypass, in 2012 had added a number of parking spaces without an apparent approved site plan. Peter Hanson of Nesconset wanted to know what happened to the proposed town master plan. “We all attended big meetings with the town and were promised input on major changes, including large projects,” he said. “I’m asking for a moratorium. Let’s wait until the master plan is completed and then go from there — it’s just that simple.” Peter Hans, planning director for the Town of Smithtown, said that it is unlikely that a decision will be made on the variances in time for the next town board meeting on August 13. “The ZBA is not allowed to act on it until they get a SEQRA recommendation from the [town’s] department of environment and waterways,” he said. The town planning director mentioned that some SEQRA procedures take less time than others, but being that the proposed hotel is such a significant project, he said it could take months or even longer until the board can finally make a decision.

Boating safely is more than common sense. While you don’t have to memorize the marine Rules of the Road to be a safe boater, a careful reading would be beneficial for every boater. Pass oncoming boats port-to-port, always have a look out, have a marine radio available and preferably tuned to channel 16. Use charts so you don’t go aground. Reduce speed in harbors and in tight quarters. Know what the buoys and other channel markers mean, and, above all, be mindful of your environment. The Coast Guard calls this “situational awareness,” a mindset that is useful anywhere and at anytime doing anything, though it’s especially important out on the water. Old salts, the veteran hands of boats and sailing, are not born that way — they learn by experience. There is, however, a better way: take a boating safety course. These days, thankfully, boating safety courses are required in most states. These courses are given by government and private parties. The Coast Guard Auxiliary and the Power Squadron give excellent programs that are tried and true and can get a dedicated novice up to speed in a few hours. The problem is getting boaters to sign up for these courses. We have all kinds of excuses, ranging from limited time in our busy lives to talk of, “boating is like driving, all you have to do is steer the boat.” But boating is not so simple an activity. Steering a boat is nothing like driving a car. In driving, does the road flow in a direction different from the one you’re going? When’s the last time you’ve seen a road center lines on the water? Does the wind usually effect your driving? Put simply, boating is a unique activity and one that takes some learning to be proficient at. Granted, there is no better teacher than experience. However, most of us didn’t learn how to drive by getting behind the wheel and driving. We usually took driver training course. What, then, makes us think that handling a boat doesn’t require training? One full day or a couple of af-
ternoon training sessions can add immeasurably to your enjoyment on the water and may even add years to your life. A central feature of the Coast Guard’s safety mantra is the Personal Floatation Device, i.e., life jackets. It is estimated that life jackets could have saved the lives of over 80 percent of boating fatality victims. Accidents can and do happen with terrifying speed on the water. There’s rarely time to reach stowed life jackets. These days floatation aids can be comfortable, so there is no excuse for not wearing one, except for, perhaps, your vanity. Doesn’t look good? How does a drowning victim look after being pulled from the water? In fact, life jackets are required for jet skiers and paddle boaters. There are other requirements for these activities, all based on common sense. But common sense is sometimes lacking on the water. Observed in Mount Sinai Harbor last summer, a young woman on a stand-up paddler with a young child sitting there, neither of whom had on life jackets. And there are kayakers in Port Jefferson Harbor, silently gliding in and out of the mooring field while an equally mindless power boater heedlessly plows his way between the mooring buoys. These situations are disasters waiting to happen. We have every opportunity to make this summer’s boating a safe one. Safe boating classes are readily available. Make it a family affair. Make your dream on the water come true and not end tragically. Have the family don their vests and tell them they look great. Don’t boat under the influence. Avoid speeding when it is clearly dangerous. Adhere to regulations that are posted for No Wake, etc. Make certain that your mechanical systems are functioning properly. Be prepared for someone falling overboard or some other accident. And above all, have a Vessel Safety Examination by the Coast Guard Auxiliary. Contact the Port Jefferson Flotilla to arrange an inspection: email: info@cgapj.org or phone: 631-938-1705. Have a great family summer on the water!

Opinion
Editorial Bad border policies Since congressional leaders visited detention facilities at the U.S. border with Mexico in the last few weeks, readers have been reaching out to us about the immigration issue. Overall, these letters have a common thread: Continue to cover the topic. As a community newspaper, our focus is mainly on local news, rather than international affairs. But, local elected officials are telling their constituents that border conditions are awful. Immigrants are living in cages and unusually crowded. We hear you and out of humanitarian concern promise to follow the issue. In turn, we ask you to stay in touch and share your perspectives. Your comments and criticism help us all become better informed. Two members of the U.S. House of Representatives live in our circulation area: U.S. Rep. Tom Suozzi (D-Glen Cove), who lives in Glen Cove, runs an office in Huntington. His district includes parts of Queens and the North Shore of Long Island in Nassau and Suffolk counties extending west to include parts of Kings Park and Commack. U.S. Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-Shirley), who lives in Shirley, and runs an office in Patchogue, represents most of Suffolk County. Suozzi sits on the House Ways and Means Committee and is vice chair of the Problem Solvers Caucus, a bipartisan group of 48 congressional leaders that are “not afraid to take on tough issues.” Zeldin sits on the Foreign Relations Committee, which deals with issues related to Central America. It passed H.R. 2615, the bill that authorizes foreign assistance to fight corruption and improve economic conditions in El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras, nations from which many immigrants originated. The bill currently awaits action in the Senate’s Foreign Relations Committee. People can contact Senators Charles Schumer (D) and Kirsten Gillibrand (D) on H.R. 2615, called The U.S. Northern Triangle Enhanced Engagement Act, and other immigration issues. You can also leave messages with the White House on your position. One U.S. policy that may be the most unrealistic is expecting people to seek asylum in the first country they encounter. Immigrants often leave to escape violence and not all countries are bordered by nations able to protect them. On July 16, the Trump administration published a new rule, 8 C.F.R. Parts 1003 and 1208 on the Federal Register, stating that any immigrant who fails to seek protection from a country outside their native land before crossing the U.S. border is ineligible for asylum. On Long Island and nationwide, Catholic Charities is one the largest providers of legal services for all people in the immigrant community. They agree that policies need to be humane. Policies should not prevent people from seeking asylum. We the people need to bear responsibility. Call your elected officials today: White House: 202-456-1111 Sen. Chuck Schumer: 202-224-6542 Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand: 202-224-4451 Rep. Tom Suozzi: 202-225-3335 Rep. Lee Zeldin: 202-225-3143

Letters to the editor
Response to “The two faces of America” In my household, after reading your opinion piece “The two faces of America in 2019”, we discussed not buying your paper ever again. Why? Are there really two faces of America or is there a schism between the power of politics and the politics of power? A conundrum that is as old as time, is the office holder who wields the power of prime import or are the duties of those offices in fact the real treasure? So too must it be said of opinion, that there is a deep schism between the power of the press and the power that the press wields. I wish you to consider your intentions in referring to the processing of people crossing the border illegally, who then seek asylum under our current asylum statutes. You call our facilities American concentration camps. You are guilty of
engaging in a misuse of power, for though you have the right to your opinion, you have transgressed as editor of your paper. My term for what your paper is constantly engaged in is “journalistic tangentialism,” untruths foisted upon a constituent, or a reader, by using one historical fact to categorize and define a current event. The obfuscation by attempting to impute definition, in my opinion, is the problem that your industry and our politicians need to constantly wrestle with so as to maintain the value of our treasured elected offices, the treasure of a free press. To manipulate is not your charge; your duty is far greater, to seek the causes and to direct ideas towards appropriate changes. Why not look at the politicians who created this dilemma, why not ask why have these office holders
chosen these paths to conflict and why they then sit and do nothing to resolve the conditions that they have created? Twenty-four years before the moon walk, my uncles were in a Nazi concentration camp. They did not choose to be in that camp in search of asylum. They only survived because they were young slave labor. The rest of my family were gassed or executed by machine gun, buried in pits with the murdered millions of Nazi concentration camp dead. Jewish children were separated from their parents with a bullet. Don’t use journalistic tangentialism to defame my dead, or defame our country. Show the paths to the cause of the problem. Show the path to the solution. Michael Sheinkopf Port Jefferson
Medicare for all would reduce stress for all Happy anniversary, Medicare and Medicaid! For 54 years, you’ve given our seniors, disabled and poor access to medical care — unlike for-profit insurers that hold our wallets and lives in a death grip, providing no benefit to our health. Health care is a civic good, like firefighters and police. It’s not an efficient market, as health care information is always unequal, with prognoses often unknown. As businesses, insurance companies prioritize profits over health. They have inserted themselves between us and our care providers. They deny claims. They arbitrarily change approval for medications for profit, not efficacy. Only you and the providers you choose should decide your care. Holding “good” insurance does not guarantee affordable health care. Both of my children were born with rare, complex congenital heart defects. My daughter is eight and long ago passed the usual insurance lifetime maximum. She is also potentially uninsurable after she ages off my policy. Why should she die because she can no longer afford care for a condition neither of us could prevent? My son died at 10 months of age, having incurred more than $2 million in health care costs. We had three separate insurance policies and still had more than $36,000 in out-of-pocket expenses the year he died, which ultimately led to bankruptcy and foreclosure. Medical bankruptcy, causing two-thirds
of American bankruptcies, is unknown in peer countries. A seriously sick or dying child is an emotional trauma. No one should simultaneously fear financial ruin. Months after my son died, calls from bill collectors left me sobbing and nonfunctional for days or weeks. We must do better, and we can. We can push our state and federal representatives to enact single-payer, improved Medicare for All legislation. We can push them to listen to constituents, not lobbyists and big donors, to learn how the status quo is harming our physical, mental and financial well-being, and to co-sponsor the New York Health Act (A5248/S3577) and federal Medicare4All (S1129/H1384), which my state senator, U.S. representative and one U.S. senator do not — yet. If businesses pay a tax on every employee equal to what they currently pay for insurance, all of us would pay less for healthcare than we do now. Medicare4All would also remove business incentives for hiring twice as many part-time as full-time workers, help start-ups recruit talent and end job lock. Doctors will see office expenses and time spent on paperwork decrease as much as 25 percent (and malpractice premiums decrease by more) and will have more time to spend with patients. Most doctors support New York Health and Medicare4All because they’re tired of
having patients delay visits until easyto-treat illnesses become life threatening, not to mention having patients unable to afford treatments. I am one of the 50 percent of insured patients who forego filling prescriptions and seeing doctors because of cost. Finally, it is absurd that hospitals artificially inflate charges for every bandage and aspirin, with costs varying from X to 10X depending on who is paying. New York Health and Medicare4All will eliminate all this creative accounting, providing global billing to ensure all medical services are reimbursed, letting providers focus on patients, not billing codes. Yes, we’d pay with taxes rather than in premiums, deductibles and out-of-pocket costs, but our individual health care expenditures would be affordable and predictable, like policing and firefighting. We don’t pay itemized costs for police ticketing speeding cars in school zones or arresting burglars in our neighborhood or for firefighters saving our houses. Spreading our medical risk across our entire population, eliminating wasted money that doesn’t benefit our heath and simplifying payments dramatically will mean each of us can access and afford all essential health care. Let’s honor Medicare by improving it. With the New York Health Act and Medicare4All, “we the people” win. Mary Hobson Miller Place

Opinion
The view from the airlines untouchables in group 9
A
irports are funny places, if you don’t have to fly anywhere. In no particular order, I’d like to share some observations after myriad recent summer flights. Cost of food and drinks: It’s not quite as high as the U.S. Open prices, but it’s pretty close. You can buy a water for the same price as you’d buy a D. None case of 24 waters at a supermarket of the above or a drugstore. BY DANIEL DUNAIEF Jennifer Aniston still sells magazines: Every news store has numerous magazines near the instant sugar and the ways to improve bad breath. At
least one, if not all, of these editorial products typically features Jennifer Aniston because, even at 50 years old, Rachel from “Friends” still helps sell magazines. Perfect place for claustrophobes — yes, that’s a word — to feel claustrophobic: Despite the ongoing construction, LaGuardia still features incredibly close hallways that are reminiscent of former baseball stadiums, albeit without the smell of hot dogs or the sound of a crowd roaring to life after a home run. Caste system in the air: We board by group number because that’s what the airlines, in their infinite wisdom and desire to divide us into the “haves” and “have nots” have decided is the best way to wring a few extra bucks out of its customers. So, naturally, those of us unwilling to shell out a few extra shekels — that’s the Israeli currency, but I put it in here because of the alliteration — have to board in group 9. What I especially love about this group, which is often the largest one, is that the airline workers rarely even say the number. After they
board group 8, they’ll say, “OK, and everyone can board now.” Why even give us a number if we are “all the rest”? Just put “last” or “loser” or “cheap bastard” on our tickets and call it a day. Seriously, this group boarding system is reminiscent of the Hindu caste system, where the group 9 people are the equivalent of Harijans or “Untouchables.” Ooh, that was a good movie which had nothing to do with flying or with the caste system, although Nitti did take an unintended flight before he was waiting in the car. Bags: Is it just me, or have the storage spaces on the airlines become smaller even as people lug two and three pieces of furniture, I mean baggage, onto the plane? Of course, the people in groups 1 and 2 could easily store a couch in the limited overhead space, while the group 9 crowd isn’t allowed to take a miniature backpack. Pretzels or cookies: Really? That’s what the food has come down to on airplanes? No more, “chicken or fish” from the flight attendants.
Nowadays, they seem magnanimous when they offer us a choice of carbohydrates. Sometimes, they even let us take one of each, but they wink as if we’re not supposed to tell anyone. Oops, did I just blow their secret? Manipulative timing: Airlines finally seem to have mastered the art of under promising and over delivering. When flights leave on time, they arrive 30 minutes or more early. When they leave 30 minutes later than anticipated, they somehow arrive on time. It probably makes passengers happier to arrive earlier, but it makes the concept of “on time” less of an accomplishment. The airlines seem to have created their own timing curve. Rating the flight: We’re barely on the ground before the airlines want to know how they did. Well, they arrived early (surprise, surprise); they gave the happy people in the higher groups of the plane the requisite pretzels; and they didn’t have time to serve drinks or pretzels to the underappreciated fliers from group 9.
We laughed about how it was a microcosm of the fourth estate, that is the public press, commenting on the executive branch. We served on the student council together and became close friends. After graduation, when my husband and I were looking to settle somewhere in the New York area, it was she who I called from Wichita Falls in northern Texas to ask if Stony Brook, where her husband was a mathematics professor, was a good place to live. Little did I know that this one night she and her husband had decided uncharacteristically to retire early to bed, and with the one-hour time difference between Texas and the East Coast, I would wake them up with my question. But she waved me on. “It’s home,” she responded in her usual direct fashion, telling me all I needed to know. That is how we happened to move to the North Shore of Long Island. After my husband died and my children all left for college, she stepped in with a surprising offer: How about joining them with an opera subscription? “Where?” I asked. “Why at the Metropolitan Opera, where else?” she smiled. “We would drive into NYC each time?” I responded disbelievingly.
“Yes, and have dinner beforehand,” she said with a gleam in her eye. And that is how I discovered one of my great passions. But before she died, here is her most important gift to us. She was the embodiment of courage. Even as the quality of her life deteriorated, she fought to maintain normalcy, for her sake and the sake of those around her. She went from a cane to a walker, accompanied by her husband, then to a wheelchair, then to a scooter wheelchair that she drove at breakneck speed down Broadway from their West End apartment to Lincoln Center for her subscription performances and more. And as her muscular ability to verbalize diminished, she used the internet and her computer keyboard to stay connected to the rest of us as long as she could control her hands. Watching her struggle was a gut-wrenching anguish. It was also an inspiration. She was not going into that dark night easily. She fought for every inch of the life her parents had saved and she and her husband had made together, and in so doing she showed us not only how to die with valor but especially how to live life to the max.
A woman of great courage
T
his week’s column is dedicated to courage, the particular courage of one person. That person was one of my closest friends, and she died last week. Even though she suffered for five years with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, known as ALS or Lou Gehrig’s disease, and we all knew that the end was coming, it is hard to imagine life without her. And isn’t that the height of selfishness, to think of her death as my loss? What about her loss? Never again on Earth to hug and kiss her husband, her children and grandchildren, to cheer when Between they enjoy victories you and me and to commiserate when things don’t BY LEAH S. DUNAIEF work out as they had hoped. Never
again to join friends for an evening at the opera. Never again to enjoy cooking delicious dinner for those lucky enough to be her guests. Never again to exchange insights about the political turmoil through which we are living. Never again to share a deep belly laugh. For her, it has ended. We met as freshmen at college. She was impressive for her strongly held viewpoints during classroom discussions of world affairs, asserting that the Cold War was not just about two superpowers but also included a third bloc of underdeveloped and uncommitted nations. She was also delightfully funny, laughing at the incongruities of life. When we were both assigned dorm rooms on the same floor of the same dorm, I got to know that she was born in Poland in the Warsaw ghetto in 1941, hardly a choice time and place, that she had escaped from the ghetto with her mother and another woman and child thanks to her father’s resourcefulness, and that she had lived out World War II in Warsaw with false papers, both mothers being under extreme duress. My friend went on to be elected editor in chief of the college newspaper, and she sometimes wrote about my actions as class president.
