US economic report: Connecticut economy grew 4.6% in Q2

By Gary Larkin / glarkin@westfairinc.com

Q1 GDP revised to 0.3% growth compared to 0.9% contraction

Connecticut’s economy expanded 4.6% in the second quarter, driven by strong performances from the critical manufacturing and finance and insurance sectors, according to a federal agency.

The U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis’ quarterly report also revised frst quarter data for the state, with the revisions showing gross domestic product (GDP) increased 0.3% in the frst three months — 14th in the country — instead of the initially reported 0.9% contraction.

Over the past 12 months, Connecticut’s economy has grown 1.6%, versus the U.S. at 1.2% and New England at 1.3%, highlighting strong growth trends.

CBIA president and CEO Chris DiPentima said volatility in the important fnance and manufacturing sectors requires a cautious response, as federal policy uncertainty is heavily impacting the state’s economy.

“Connecticut is certainly navigating the volatility and uncertainty over the frst six months of the year better than most states,” DiPentima said.

“As CBIA’s annual survey of businesses shows, employers are closely monitoring federal fscal policy, trade dynamics, and infationary pressures—all of which are contributing to a climate of uncertainty.”

REGIONAL FIGURES

New England’s economy grew 3.9% and national GDP increased 3.8%, with 48 states posting positive

economic numbers after a difcult frst quarter that saw the national economy shrink 0.6%.

Massachusetts’ economy performed best in the region after Connecticut, expanding 4.5% — 11th among all states — after growing 4.2% the previous quarter.

Maine’s GDP grew 2.4% (40th), followed by Vermont (2.1%; 41st), New Hampshire (2%; 40th), and Rhode Island (0.5%; 47th).

DiPentima noted that manufacturing’s rebound from a frst quarter contraction refected inventory use after manufacturers stocked up ahead of scheduled tarifs, as net export data showed.

“We must pay close attention to signals of a softening in the economy, particularly with the weakening in the jobs market and ongoing labor force losses,” he said.

“Retail trade sector output also declined in the quarter, a sign that consumer confdence struggled in the quarter and a worrying trend as it also declined the previous three months.

“The best thing state policymakers can do is promote greater certainty on the state level that can mitigate federal issues and support continued growth.”

SECTOR PERFORMANCE

Connecticut’s $291.7 billion real GDP accounts for 24% of New England’s $1.2 trillion economy, and is the second largest in the region be -

hind Massachusetts ($642.8 billion).

Fifteen of the 22 major industry sectors that BEA tracks posted productivity gains in the second quarter, led by fnance and insurance, which expanded 1.59% after shrinking 0.92% in the frst quarter.

Manufacturing grew 1.01% — rebounding from -0.42% the previous quarter — followed by information (0.82%), professional services (0.49%), wholesale trade (0.48%), real estate (0.38%), healthcare (0.32%), construction (0.26%), accommodation and food services (0.16%), management (0.1%), state and local government (0.09%), arts, entertainment, and recreation (0.08%), transportation and warehousing (0.07%), agriculture (0.01%), and mining (0.01%).

Retail trade declined for a third consecutive quarter, down 0.55% to lead all losing sectors.

Connecticut’s second quarter GDP growth was 10th best of all states.

Utilities output declined 0.25%, followed by educational services (-0.19%), federal government (-0.17%), administrative services (-0.04%), other services (-0.04%), and military (-0.01%).

PERSONAL INCOME

Connecticut’s personal income, a key measure of economic competitiveness, grew 6.3% in the second quarter — 15th best in the nation — after growing 6.4% in the previous quarter.

“Personal income growth is a positive sign,” DiPentima said. “Wage increases are keeping pace with infation in Connecticut.

“And that means employers are doing everything they can to attract and retain people and grow their businesses, and ultimately grow Connecticut’s economy.”

The New England states averaged 6.2%, down from 7.3% in the frst quarter, led by Massachusetts at 7%—ffth best in the country.

“Wage increases are keeping pace with infation in Connecticut,” according to DiPentima.

Maine saw 6.9% growth in wages (sixth), followed by Connecticut, Vermont (4.8%; 35th), Rhode Island (4%; 42nd), and New Hampshire (3.3%; 48th).

U.S. personal income grew 5.5% in the second three months of the year, down from 6.4% in the frst quarter.

“That’s

big news because it means millions of dollars to help ofset the cost of education, improve our roads, and enhance our quality of life — all at MGM at the casino.”

Yonkers committee votes in favor of full-casino license for MGM

By Peter Katz / pkatz@westfairinc.com

— Yonkers Mayor Mike Spano

The state's Yonkers Community Advisory Committee that has been reviewing the application by MGM Resorts for a full-casino license at its Empire City site voted Sept. 25 to endorse the project by a unanimous 5-0 vote. The a rmative decision means that the application will be given a review by the state Gaming Commission's Facility Location Board, keeping alive the possibility that the MGM facility in Yonkers would be awarded a full-casino license. The state is due to decide by the end of the year in which communities it will be awarding three full-casino licenses for the downstate area.

In reaction to the vote, Yonkers Mayor Mike Spano said, "That's big news because it means millions of dollars, millions of dollars to help ofset the cost of education, millions of dollars to help improve our roads, keep our streets clear, improve our quality of life, all at MGM at the casino. It's now up to New York state for them to give us full gaming, but

we are ready to go."

Rendering of possible MGM exterior signage

In a statement, MGM said it is grateful to the Community Advisory Committee and the local community for demonstrating their continued support for Empire City Casino. It had told the state's Gaming Commission, "With an awarded license, MGM Yonkers would plan to reinvest $2.3 billion, which includes $1.8 billion of capital investments into the property. Our plan, which prioritizes speed-to-market and minimal operational disruption, is to meaningfully expand and remodel the existing property footprint while adding several amenities and new experiences that would continue to draw visitors to Yonkers."

New York City proposals for fully licensed casinos were turned down by Community Advisory Committees in the city. Proposals for a full-license casino at Times Square and the Hudson Yards on the city's West Side were backed by major developers but faced strong opposition from residents and

COURTS

local ofcials. The $5.4 billion Caesars Palace Times Square proposal was backed by developers SL Green, Roc Nation, and Caesars Entertainment. The project was opposed by Broadway groups and local residents who feared it would harm the theater community and negatively impact the neighborhood.

The other Manhattan casino plan was called The Avenir and was a $7 billion proposal by Silverstein Properties and Rush Street Gaming. The plan included a hotel, housing, and a community center. A proposal for a casino at Coney Island was rejected by a Community Advisory Committee, while a proposal by Bally for a casino near the Whitestone Bridge got Community Advisory Committee approval.

Spano had told the Community Advisory Board, "The casino project is anticipated to result in substantial economic benefts for the city and the region, including construction jobs, permanent operational jobs, and a large investment in the community."

Among the benefts MGM Empire City would be providing to the city are:

• $2 million annual funding for two police ofcers;

• partial funding to replace waterline on Central Park Avenue

or full funding for cleaning and relining;

• improving trafc fow in and around MGM Empire City;

• improving trafc intersections and upgrading communications technology;

• replacing fve acres of impervious surfaces with new water-efcient landscaping;

• adding new landscaping to act as light and sound bufer;

• signifcantly improving collection and detention of storm water runof; and

• reducing electricity usage through sustainable building practices.

• $10 million to purchase and renovate a new library/community center;

• $2 million to fund small business facade improvements on Yonkers Avenue;

• $2 million for Yonkers Avenue streetscape improvements;

• $1 .25 million for park improvements;

• a minimum guaranty of $19.6 million in annual tax revenue from the state's Commercial Gaming Revenue Fund, regardless of MGM Empire City's ultimate gaming tax rate.

NY AG James and others win energy lawsuit against Trump administration

By Peter Katz / pkatz@westfairinc.com

A coalition of 19 state attorneys general and two state governors that was co-led by New York Attorney General Letitia James has secured a victory against the Trump administration regarding federal funding of state energy programs. The U.S. District Court for the District of Oregon found that the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) cap on state energy program funding is illegal.

In a ruling from the bench, Judge Mustafa Kasubhai granted the coalition's motion for summary

judgment, concluding that the DOE policy violated the Administrative Procedure Act (APA). The policy would have slashed reimbursements for stafng and administrative costs and threatened millions of dollars for essential energy programs.

“Once again, my ofce has successfully stopped the federal government from illegally cutting of funding that New Yorkers rely on,” said James. "DOE’s cap on funding is unlawful and dangerous, and (the) ruling ensures that

New York will continue to get the resources it needs to deliver cleaner, safer, and more afordable energy for our communities.”

The lawsuit argued that DOE’s cap violated federal law, disregarded states’ negotiated cost rates, and would undermine stafng and operations for state energy agencies.

In New York, approximately $1.6 million in state energy program funding was at risk due to DOE’s policy. This funding also helps the state ensure the state’s energy systems can withstand extreme weather or disasters, determine how electricity prices and market rules are set, and run annual practice drills so

the state can respond quickly if the power grid or fuel supply is disrupted. Without full federal support, the state could have potentially had to cancel or delay programs that enable it to meet energy demand while prioritizing afordability.

In addition to James, the plaintifs in the lawsuit were the attorneys general of California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii, Illinois, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, New Mexico, North Carolina, Oregon, Washington, Wisconsin, and the District of Columbia, as well as the governors of Kentucky and Pennsylvania.

The loud Sunday morning wakeup call in reater Bridgeport was power plant implosion

By Gary Larkin / glarkin@westfairinc.com

Iconic candy cane smokestack still stands as city development gets started

BRIDGEPORT – That big bang that residents of greater Bridgeport heard and felt at 4 a.m. on Sunday, Sept. 29, wasn’t fireworks or thunder. It was a controlled implosion of the former PSEG power plant that jolted people out of bed.

It was also the frst major step in the redevelopment of the old Bridgeport Harbor Station next to the Steelpointe Harbor mixed-use development. The former coal plant, which was decommissioned years ago, is the future site of a residential/commercial mixed-use project that has been years in the making.

“Today marks a big step in fnally ridding Bridgeport of a vacant eyesore that has cut of public access to the waterfront for more than 70 years,”

Gov. Ned Lamont announced on his Facebook page complete with a video of the implosion. “Soon, this pollut-

| 914.229.2590

ed land will be cleaned up so it can be put back into productive use, unlocking new housing, recreational, commercial, and economic opportunities.”

The Sunday morning implosion was around the same date as the originally scheduled demolition of the iconic candy cane smokestack. That date was moved from Sept. 28 to April 2026 when the Soundside Music Festival was scheduled. But the festival was canceled due to lack of ticket sales after the date had been shifted.

Chad Parks, a principal of the developer Bridgeport Station Development LLC, was responsible for seeing through the implosion.

As part of an agreement reached with Lamont’s administration, the developer on Nov. 15, 2024, Bridgeport 1-4 LLC conveyed the plant property to Bridgeport Station Development.

The state, through the Community

For 25 years, we’ve transformed uncertainty into unwavering assurance, creating sophisticated spaces where care and comfort naturally intertwine. Because the best decisions often begin with ‘I’m not sure.’

Investment Fund, is providing $22.5 million for the demolition and remediation of the contaminated plant. The fund is a statewide program created to foster economic development in historically underserved communities.

Ribbon-cutting for The Leaf in New Rochelle

By Peter Katz / pkatz@westfairinc.com

“The

Leaf represents BRP’s second major development in New Rochelle and underscores our unwavering commitment to the city’s revitalization and longterm prosperity.”

— Meredith Marshall, BRP Companies

Although BRP Companies back in April marked the grand opening of its mixeduse development known as The Leaf at 12 Church St., in New Rochelle, on Sept. 24 a formal ribbon-cutting ceremony was held and New York State Homes and Community Renewal (HCR) Commissioner RuthAnne Visnauskas announced that The Leaf has indeed been completed. It's a 477-unit $297 million mixed-income housing development that includes 119 units of a" ordable housing for residents earning up to 60% of the Area Median Income.

“Thanks to HCR’s partnership with the City of New Rochelle, Westchester County, BRP Companies and others, this impressive new development is bringing equitable, afordable housing within walking distance of essential public transportation and a booming downtown," Visnauskas said. "By contributing nearly $50 million in tax credits and bonds to The Leaf, HCR is advancing Gov. Hochul’s visionary $25 billion Housing Plan that is creating and preserving essential afordable housing across New York.” The 26-story building was constructed on land previously occupied by the New York Covenant Church. The church now occupies portions of the frst two foors of the new building.

A community space and retail space are also on the frst foor. The Leaf is within walking distance of the New Rochelle Transportation Center for Metro-North and Amtrak, as well as several bus lines.

The project features the largest mural in Westchester County, a 20-story tall piece of artwork paying homage to New Rochelle’s diversity that is on The Leaf's north-facing side on Main Street.

The Leaf was supported by New York State Homes and Community Renewal’s Federal Low Income Housing Tax Credit Program that is expected to generate $20.7 million in equity, as well as $29 million in tax-exempt bonds. Westchester County provided $5 million, the New Rochelle Industrial Development Agency approved a local tax abatement, and a $2.5 million loan was provided from the non-proft Interfaith Dwellings Corporation. Goldman Sachs, in combination with Merchants Capital Corp. and KeyBank, provided a construction loan. Merchants Capital Corp. provided a forward commitment for permanent fnancing through Fannie Mae’s M.TEB program, underwritten by Wells Fargo. Goldman Sachs and BRP Companies also provided $50 million in equity.

“My administration is working aggressively to create more housing

opportunities in thriving communities like New Rochelle,” Gov. Hochul said. “With the opening of a building like The Leaf, which revitalized a downtown property while providing afordable units close to public transportation, we are increasing the housing supply and ensuring more families have afordable places to live.”

Meredith Marshall, co-founder and managing partner of BRP Companies, said, “The Leaf represents BRP’s second major development in New Rochelle and underscores our unwavering commitment to the city’s revitalization and long-term prosperity. We are honored to collaborate with dedicated partners who share our vision of creating vibrant, inclusive communities that not only provide quality housing but also strengthen the social and economic fabric of New Rochelle for generations to come.”

New Rochelle's Mayor Yadira Ramos-Herbert said, “This new mixedused, mixed-income development is providing New Rochelle with new and afordable homes, state-of-the-art amenities and 3,000 square feet of ground foor retail space – a portion of which will be used to host exciting city programming."

According to County Executive Ken Jenkins, “The completion of The Leaf housing development is another powerful step forward in addressing the need for more diverse housing options in Westchester County. This mixed-income project not only provides hundreds of families with access to safe and afordable homes, but also strengthens New Rochelle’s vibrant downtown, supports transit-oriented development, and refects our shared vision for advancement and growth."

Rockland makes 236-acre land purchase

By Peter Katz / pkatz@westfairinc.com

“This isn’t just about protecting land — it’s about safeguarding water and creating lasting connections for people and wildlife.”

Rockland County and the Open Space Institute (OSI) have announced that the county has assembled two parcels of land acquired by OSI along with a third parcel of land acquired by the county to create a 236-acre area that will be protected from development. The parcel is known as the Eagle Valley Assemblage, which is the same name OSI gave to the two parcels it purchased.

recreational opportunities and protect critical drinking water resources in an area facing heavy development pressure.

The county and OSI announcement event was held at the Valley Rock Inn, a restaurant and event venue that neighbors the Eagle Valley Assemblage.

— Erik Kulleseid

OSI’s original Eagle Valley Assemblage was comprised of an 87-acre Eagle Valley property, which OSI purchased on March 14, 2024, for $1,600,000; and the 45-acre Cherso Realty property, which OSI purchased on May 17, 2024, for $1,275,000.

OSI made the land purchases as a conservation project, located in the corridor between Sterling Forest and Harriman State Parks, that it said was designed to enhance regional

“This is a historic win for Rockland County,” said County Executive Ed Day. “The Eagle Valley property is a rare, undeveloped parcel of this size and will protect water resources, preserve wildlife habitats, and provide new opportunities for recreation.”

The county is exploring opportunities for the site, including the creation of a new county park and expanded trail connections.

Kevin McGuinness of the county's Division of Environmental Resources said, "This will be our frst new

completely standalone park in over 25 years. It's believed to be one of the largest remaining undeveloped parcels in Rockland County. The vision of working with the Palisades Interstate Park Commission is to connect it to the west to Sterling Forest, through ... the Liberty Rock Park and to Harriman State Park, connecting all of those properties which will be of terrifc value to the ... residents of New York state and of the whole region."

According to Erik Kulleseid, president and CEO of OSI “This isn’t just about protecting land—it’s about safeguarding the integrity of local water sources and creating connections that provide lasting benefts for people and wildlife. OSI is thrilled to lend our land conservation expertise towards a project that will enable visitors to efortlessly explore the natural beauty of the area while preserving the clean water for generations to come.”

The acquisition was made possible

October 30, 2025

with the support of a $2.74 million Highlands Conservation Act grant from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The grant, secured with assistance from New York State Parks, will be returned to the County’s Open Space Acquisition Fund, ensuring more land can be preserved.

“The opportunity to protect land at this scale in Rockland County is extraordinarily rare,” Day said. “This acquisition represents the power of collaboration — between government agencies, environmental organizations, and the residents who frst nominate properties for review. Together, we are leaving a legacy of preservation that will beneft Rocklanders for generations to come.”

Rockland’s Open Space Acquisition Program was started in 1999 by former County Executive C. Scott Vanderhoef. The program was suspended in 2010 during the national recession but was revived in 2019 and has resulted in the preservation of more than 302 acres of land including the Eagle Valley Assemblage.

Medical Center launches funding campaign to complete pavilion construction

By Peter Katz / pkatz@westfairinc.com

A campaign has begun to raise additional funding to complete construction of the Brenda Fareri Pavilion at the Westchester Medical Center in Valhalla. The Medical Center, flagship of the Westchester Medical Center Health Network is building the new, stateof-the-art critical care tower that will o" er 162,000 square feet of space for advanced critical-care medicine.

The $25 million capital campaign has been named “Possible Starts Here.” The overall cost of the new facility has been estimated at $220 million. Much of the required funding has been in place, including a substantial contribution from the Fareri family. In February, it was announced that John and Brenda Fareri, whose support for the WMCHealth has been instrumental in its growth, pledged a $5 million gift to support the construction of the new patient tower.

The "Possible Starts Here" campaign was highlighted with an event at the Medical Center during which a steel beam for the building was signed by donors, hospital leaders and staf, and invited guests. Construction is expected to be completed next year.

The new building will feature rooms designed to house one patient rather than multiple patients, the capability for rooms to handle intensive care, new operating rooms and facilities to support world-class patient care programs including advanced neurosurgery through the region’s most

comprehensive Neuroscience Intensive Care Unit and the Hudson Valley’s only Comprehensive Stroke Center. The new building will allow space to be created in the main hospital so that all patients can have private rooms, advancing both care and comfort.

The Pavilion also will enhance the Medical Center's nationally recognized Cardiac Surgery Program, ranked among the top 50 in the U. S. for patient outcomes.

“When seconds count, patients across our region rely on Westchester Medical Center,” said Dr. David Lubarsky, president and CEO of WMCHealth. “The Brenda Fareri Pavilion will provide our expert teams with the cutting-edge space, resources, and technology they need to deliver worldclass outcomes in the most critical moments. This campaign ensures the future of advanced critical care is built right here, close to home.”

Westchester Medical Center Foundation Trustee, Julie Fareri, whose mother, a pioneering critical care nurse, is honored in the Pavilion’s name, said, “This project carries forward my mother’s lifelong dedication to patients and families. We invite our entire community to join us in building a future where every life saved is a future restored.”

According to Westchester County Executive Ken Jenkins, “Westchester Medical Center has long been a cornerstone of care for families throughout our county. The Westches-

ter County LDC (Local Development Corporation) was proud to provide a $195 million bond in support of this project. The new Brenda Fareri Pavilion will ensure that when our residents face their most critical health challenges, they can receive outstanding treatment close to home. I want to commend Westchester Medical Center, its dedicated staf, and the many generous donors who helped to make this vision a reality.”

Together with Maria Fareri Children’s Hospital, Westchester Medical Center operates the region’s only American College of Surgeons-verifed Level I trauma programs for both adults and children. In 2024 alone, Westchester Medical Center treated nearly 7,000 adult trauma patients, while Maria Fareri Children’s Hospital cared for more than 2,500 children, underscoring the urgent need for expanded critical care capacity.

The Medical Center notes that

beyond health care, the Pavilion also will bring signifcant economic impact, generating millions of dollars for Westchester County through construction and permanent jobs.

Zubeen Shrof, Chair of the WMCHealth Foundation Board, said, “This campaign is about more than bricks and mortar, it’s about delivering on our promise of innovation, access, and hope. Trustees, physicians, employees, and partners across the community have already stepped forward with transformational support. Together, we are ensuring that the most advanced medicine will always be available to the people of the Hudson Valley.”

The Medical Center is now inviting community members to "help close the campaign and bring the Brenda Fareri Pavilion to life." Details on contributing are posted online at WMCHealth. org/CriticalCareTower or are available by phone at 914-493-2575.

Lidl sets opening date for Yonkers market

By Peter Katz / pkatz@westfairinc.com

The global food store chain Lidl has set Oct. 22 for the opening of its new store in the Central Plaza Shopping Center at 2570 Central Park Ave. in Yonkers. It plans to have a ribbon-cutting ceremony at 7:40 .m., after which the doors will be open for customers. The chain says the Yonkers store will be open from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. every day.

Lidl, is part of Schwarz Group, a leading global food retailer headquartered in Germany. According to Lidl, its frst location opened in 1973 in Ludwigshafen, Germany. It was a small store with only three employees and stocked around 500 products. Lidl currently operates more than 12,000 stores in 31 countries and employs about 375,000 people. Lidl U.S. opened its headquarters in Arlington, Virginia, in 2015 and its frst stores in the U.S. in 2017. It currently has more

than 180 stores across nine East Coast states.

Lidl reported global sales of approximately $132.1 billion Euros for its Fiscal Year 2024, which is the equivalent of approximately $155 billion U.S. dollars.

The shopping center's owner Central Plaza Associates LLC had fled with Yonkers to get the required approvals and permits for the adaptive reuse of space at the shopping center that would combine smaller stores to create the footprint for the 29,208-square-foot supermarket.

In addition to a new building facade and new signage for the supermarket, there are improvements to the refuse areas, crosswalks and the addition of new corrals for shopping carts. Lidl says that the interior layout ofers fast and convenient shopping without what it calls "endless mazes."

Among the food specialties Lidl says it will be featuring in the Yonkers

store are: 49-cent butter croissants that are fown in from Europe and baked fresh daily in the store; private label Lidl Preferred Selection pizzas that are imported from Europe; Preferred Selection Frozen Tiramisu; and Italian pasta with premium fllings like trufe and lobster.

Picklr franchise planned for Central Avenue in Greenburgh

By Peter Katz / pkatz@westfairinc.com

The owners of a pickleball franchise to be located at 1019 Central Park Ave. in the Town of Greenburgh are preparing to go before the Greenburgh Planning Board to seek the special permit they'll need in order to open, according to Town Supervisor Paul Feiner.

The facility to be opened by franchise owners Heather Rhyu and Noah Allen is being welcomed by Feiner, who says the pickleball operation "is great for our business district and a fantastic addition to the town."

The facility is known as The Picklr Scarsdale. It would have eight pickleball courts. It would use 22,000 square feet of space that previously had been occupied by retailer buybuyBABY and the plan is to open early in 2026. In addition to the courts for pickleball play, there would be a pro shop and private event space.

“We are thrilled to bring The Picklr to Westchester and introduce our community to the best-in-class indoor pickleball experience,” said Rhyu and Allen. “The Picklr takes indoor pickleball to the next level with state-of-the-art clubs, all-inclusive, one-price memberships."

The company The Picklr, which is based in Kaysville, Utah, reports having more than 500 franchise locations sold globally with 49 currently open and serving about 25,000 members. It says that it plans to have more than 150 locations operating by the end of next year. A franchise disclosure document issued by The Picklr Francihse Inc., says that the total investment to begin operation of a single Picklr franchise is $1,242,900 to $2,094,300.

Feiner said that the "Town of Greenburgh has a wide variety of indoor private recreation uses, including

membership gyms, golf simulators, ice skating, taekwondo, karate, yoga/ pilates studios, etc. These recreation facilities are enhancing residents’

quality of life and helping to make our business districts a destination point for people who normally may not shop or visit Central Avenue businesses."

Kingston schools OK tax exemptions for new housing

By Peter Katz / pkatz@westfairinc.com

The Kingston City School District has approved giving property tax exemptions for the development of new housing in the city. The School Board agreed to allow what are known as 421-P and 421-P*2 Tax Exemptions.

Kingston City School District

Superintendent Paul Padalino said, “Lack of adequate proper housing has an impact on our entire community, especially our young people. These measures help ensure more families get access to a stable home, ofering students a foundation for mental and emotional security, which is essential for academic success.”

State laws allowing the tax exemptions were put into efect last year but local municipalities and other taxing

authorities such as school boards must have put their own rulings allowing the tax exemptions into efect.

The 421-P Tax Exemption for New Housing allows municipalities to exempt newly constructed or converted rentals properties with multiple dwelling units from property taxes. To qualify for tax exemption, the new structure must have 10 or more rental units and have been built on vacant or underutilized land. At least 25% of the units in the structure must be afordable to households between 60% and 80% of the Area Median Income (AMI), and none of the afordable units may have households earning more than 100% AMI. Local laws allowing the tax exemptions must be in efect. Construction must take place after the efective date of the

local law. Qualifying properties receive a full exemption during construction (up to 3-years) and an additional 25year period of decreasing exemptions for the improvements made (beginning with a 96% exemption in the frst year after construction and then decreasing by 4% year thereafter).

The 421-P*2 Tax Exemption for New Accessory Dwelling Units allows municipalities to exempt newly constructed accessory dwelling units (ADU) from taxation for a 10-year period. To qualify for tax exemption, the attached or detached ADU must be a new unit that provides independent living facilities, as defned in the city’s form-based code. ADUs cannot be used as short-term rentals. Construction must take place after the efective date of the local law.

Kingston Mayor Steve Noble said, “I want to thank the School Board for

passing this vital housing legislation, which will spur the creation of much needed housing. We set an ambitious goal of approving units 1,000 units of housing in Kingston by 2029, and we hope this will help us achieve that goal. This two-pronged legislation supports homeowners to create additional housing on their property as well as developers to build or redevelop larger housing projects."

Top Colleges and Universities in Greater Fairfield and Westchester counties 2025

Top Colleges and Universities in Greater Fairfield and Westchester counties 2025

1 At 75, Mercy University remains ‘steadfastly committed’ to education for all

These have not been the best of times for colleges and universities, with federal challenges to curriculum, diversity on campus and granting. Such challenges resonate particularly with schools like Mercy University, celebrating its 75th anniversary of providing educational access and opportunity for all. As a federally designated minority-serving institution and the largest private Hispanic Serving Institution in New York state, Mercy University has a racial composition of 41% Latino, 24% Black, 24% White and 7% Asian among its 7,681 undergraduates and 3,223 graduate students. (When you look at the undergraduate population alone, the minority numbers are higher — 47% Latino, 26% Black and 17% White.)

On Tuesday, Sept. 30, Excelencia in Education, a national organization, announced that Mercy University had earned the Seal of Excelencia recertifcation. (It was frst awarded the seal in 2022.) Mercy is just one of 18 colleges and universities to earn the Seal in 2025, reafrming its place in a group of nearly 50 institutions dedicated to improving Latino, and all, student success. With 912 faculty members, a staf of 605 and an annual operating budget of $160 million, the university is determined to chart not only the current cultural landscape but its own course.

“Mercy remains steadfastly committed to its mission,” said university President Susan L. Parish, Ph.D., M.S.W. “At a time when we are facing a period of intense scrutiny and shifting priorities in higher education, our work is more important than ever. As you know, earlier this month, the U.S. Department of Education announced the termination of several Title III and Title V grant programs. For universities like ours, these funds have been essential in leveling the playing feld for students who have historically been underserved. While this decision does not alter our commitment to serving our diverse student population and

upholding our mission as a Hispanic-Serving Institution, it does challenge us to do even more with fewer resources.

“We must ensure that the education we provide continues to open doors, build networks and create access to excellent employment opportunities for Latino students and all students. We have already begun this work through career pathway programs, industry partnerships and curricular innovation, and now we must do even more.”

Founded in 1950 by the Sisters of Mercy, a Roman Catholic order, to provide young women with a college education – and a path to fnding a place in the wide world — Mercy is now an independent, coeducational institution with campuses in Dobbs Ferry, the Bronx and Manhattan, as well as online. It ofers more than 100 undergraduate and graduate degree programs and certifcate programs within six schools — Business, Education, Health and Natural Sciences, Liberal Arts, Nursing and Social and Behavioral Sciences.

Though much has changed over the years, Parish said that in essentials, Mercy remains as it was:

“Mercy’s 75th anniversary is a remarkable milestone that honors

the vision of the founding Sisters of Mercy, whose commitment to compassion, service and opportunity continues to guide our institution. I fnd it incredible that their founding mission remains just as relevant today as it was in 1950. Mercy remains what it has been since its inception –a beacon of access, opportunity and transformation.”

Recently, Westfair caught up with her for a wide-ranging interview on the university’s past, present and future:

Susan, thank you for your time and congratulations to you and Mercy on 75 years of educational excellence. As you look back on your tenure as president but also on the university's history, what stands out as its major accomplishments?

“A monumental moment during my tenure as president is when Mercy became Mercy University in August of 2023. I was so honored to be a part of it. Becoming a university was the natural evolution for our in-

stitution and frmly rooted in Mercy’s founding principles.

Through each decade, the heart of Mercy has stayed the same – opening doors of opportunity, lifting up students and families — and that is truly inspiring. I am proud to be a part of its story.”

What's new on campus — in terms of programming or facilities, for example – that students are experiencing this fall?

“Beginning with the 2025 frstyear students, Mercy University has launched a Work-Based Experience (WBE) component to every academic program. WBE is a form of experiential learning, which may include internships, volunteerism, clinicals, practicums, feld work, service-learning or other relevant hands-on experiences.

“Students will complete WBE at various points during their academic journey, with a high concentration in the junior and senior years. Each WBE will be paired with a course component, allowing faculty to track student learning and progress.

“Before beginning a Work-Based Experience, students will receive career preparation that includes per-

sonalized one-to-one career coaching, career-integrated curriculum, access to career-related workshops and on-demand resources to support professional development.

“This initiative is part of a broader strategy to prepare students to be work-world ready, enable students to earn a livable wage, exceeding what they would earn with only a high school diploma, position students to pay down student debt and support their families efectively and ensure students are not underemployed upon graduation.

The new 4,100-square-foot openair pavilion was named for Timothy L. Hall and Lee Nicholson Hall, Mercy University’s 12th president and his wife. Photograph by Kenneth Gabrielsen.

“As for facilities, Mercy has invested in several upgrades to its Westchester campus over the past two years, including redesigning the main entrance that welcomes visitors with the new Mercy University name, a new turning lane to ease congestion, a wider turning radius for buses and a raised table over the Old Croton Aqueduct for trafc and pedestrian safety. The new The Gardens on Broadway ofers a place where students can meet to pause during their busy day, recharge and be inspired by nature.

“Another large-scale addition for the community is the incredible 4,100-square-foot open-air pavilion, named in honor of Timothy L. Hall and Lee Nicholson Hall, Mercy’s 12th president and his wife. Located in a high-trafc area of campus, this amazing focal point also serves as a hub of activity, promoting conversation and connection among the entire Mercy community.

“We installed a new four-faced clock in our Westchester campus to commemorate our 75th anniversary. The clock, dedicated on Sept. 20 at Founders’ Festival, is a powerful sym-

bol of our history and future.

Mercy University recently upgraded its athletic felds. Photograph by Kyle Goodhart, the school's assistant athletic director of communications.

“We also recently renovated our athletic felds. New dugouts, a stateof-the-art scoreboard, an enhanced audio system and upgraded netting are just a few of the exciting upgrades that not only elevate the athletic experience but also underscore Mercy’s dedication to providing top-notch facilities for its students and athletes.

“Mercy University is planning several exciting upgrades to the Westchester campus over the next fve years. These renovation and building projects aim to enhance student engagement and success by providing a variety of new, thoughtfully designed spaces, including a dedicated student services center, more purpose-built classrooms and labs, more informal social space, new athletic facilities and a more accessible and updated event space.”

Mercy continues to see rising enrollment – with the freshman class surpassing 1,000 for the third consecutive year — at a time when some are questioning attending four-year institutions. To what do you attribute that success?

“Mercy’s long-standing commitment to afordability is as important today as it ever has been. Mercy tuition rate ($23,650 for a full-time undergraduate in the 2025-26 school year), is often half that of most private colleges and universities. We believe students and families are growing tired of the ‘high-cost, highaid’ model many schools use and appreciate how clear we express cost of attendance.

“At the same time, we are seeing massive growth in our nursing pro-

gram due to our fantastic outcomes and a wide range of programs. We ofer both a traditional, four-year Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) program, an accelerated second-degree program for career changers and robust graduate programs for nurses who want to move into leadership roles. We are also very excited about our new bachelors’ programs in education, which will help address

crucial shortages of teachers across New York and the region.

“We also have continued to invest in our infrastructure and ofer beautiful campuses and top-of-the-line facilities.”

Mercy is focused on preparing students for high-demand jobs not only in nursing and the rest of health care but in technology and that perennial, business. But we know from our past conversations that you think a well-rounded education, including the arts and humanities as well as STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics), is important. Would you elaborate on this?

“A well-rounded education that combines the arts and humanities with STEM is essential today because it helps students develop both technical expertise and human-centered skills. STEM builds strong prob-

lem-solving and analytical abilities, while the humanities strengthen communication, creativity and ethical awareness. Together, they prepare students to adapt in a rapidly changing workforce, approach challenges from multiple perspectives and think critically about the broader impact of their work on society.

“This balance creates not just skilled professionals but thoughtful and innovative leaders.

"Advances in areas like AI, for example, raise ethical and social questions. Humanities provide the foundation to think critically about the human impact of these felds.

"A mix of STEM and humanities ensures students are fexible, resilient and prepared for the future. Mercy is undergoing a transformation of our general education model to better connect students to the learning in the classroom, demystifying the college experience and providing students with the skills and lessons needed to remain in college until graduation and obtain a rewarding and successful career upon graduation.”

Many area colleges and universities are partnering with local corporations and other organizations to give their students a leg up. Tell us about some of Mercy's corporate partners.

“Thanks to an impressive lineup

visits and pathways to internships and employment. Students get face time with professionals from organizations such as:

• Abrams Books – accounting;

• C&A Digital Marketing – marketing;

• Community Capital New York –fnancial services;

• DNY – marketing;

• Deloitte, KPMG LLP, JP Morgan and Co., Con Edison, PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC), Ernst & Young (EY), Citrin Cooperman, PKF O’Connor Davies, CohnReznick, UHY, Grant Thornton – professional services, fnance and energy;

• Global Atlantic Financial Group – fnancial services;

• Hart Vita and Partners – accounting, consulting and fnancial services;

• PepsiCo – Food and beverage;

• NordLB – banking and fnancial services.

“Beyond the partnerships themselves, industry leaders such as Alex Hart, CEO and founder of Hart Vita, and Martin Speckesser, senior director at NordLB, serve on Mercy’s School of Business advisory board. Their input ensures that classroom learning stays relevant to today’s rapidly evolving workplace.

“Meanwhile, through the Career and Professional Development ofce, students connect with employers in science, health care, technology and more:

• Regeneron: Every year since 2020, 15 to 20 Regeneron scientists have volunteered their time to network with students interested in STEM careers during the company’s Day for Doing Good.

“Mercy University looks forward to the next 75 years of growth and transformation — ensuring students launch successful, meaningful careers.”

• Health-care employers and NCLEX review weeks: Mercy nursing graduates preparing for their licensing exams meet recruiters from top health-care organizations, including Montefore Health System, Northwell Health, Summit Health, White Plains Hospital (part of Montefore), and NYC Health + Hospitals.

• Career fairs: Mercy’s fall fair brings in around 30 employers, while the spring fair draws as many as 60 organizations eager to recruit the university’s rising talent.

“Mercy’s forward-looking collaborations also include a growing relationship with the Westchester Medical Center Health Network, which ofers onboarding waivers to smooth the path for Mercy students entering clinical work. In the tech

space, Mercy partners with TechWise, which has provided specialized training for aspiring technology professionals over multiple years.

“Mercy’s partnerships ensure students graduate with more than a degree; they leave with the skills, connections and confdence to thrive in their chosen felds. It’s this combination of academic excellence and real-world experience that makes Mercy’s approach to career readiness stand out.”

What else is on the horizon for Mercy?

“Mercy University is committed to expanding its reach and impact by fnding innovative ways to address students’ evolving needs and bring education to even more people.

"Mercy University will be a leader in ensuring students who want to transform their lives through education, and particularly frst generation and low-income students, can do so.”

If we were to come back to the school 75 years from now, what do you expect we would see?

“Mercy University looks forward to the next 75 years of growth and enrichment – deepening our community ties and fnding new ways to ensure students graduate with minimal debt and launch successful, meaningful careers.”

Providing Italian brands with an entrée into the U.S. retail market

For foreign businesses, the American market can be an intimidating one, even for brands whose countries of origin have deep roots in the United States, as Italy does.

Enter Alberto Milani, with an eye for crafting not only fne jewelry but an entrée into the U.S. marketplace for companies in the Italian food, fashion and travel industries.

After a career in which he held senior leadership roles at such global brands as Procter & Gamble, Sector Sport Watches, Bulgari, Buccellati and Richline Group Inc. (a Berkshire Hathaway Inc. subsidiary), Milani founded his eponymous jewelry brand, Alberto Milani, A Love Afair With Italy, in 2017 and, four years later, co-founded Piazza Italia, which provides some 35 subscribing Italian businesses with what he calls “a menu of services” – accounting, banking, legal, marketing and public relations – as well as an ofce in midtown Manhattan of Madison Avenue, 11 44th St. to be exact.

For Italian products in the U.S. market, the hurdles go beyond the current geopolitical climate.

“Tarifs are just the tip of the iceberg,” Milani said of the 15% tarif on most Italian imports as per the trade agreement negotiated between the United States and the European Union in July. “Competing successfully now requires not occasional attempts but a permanent structural presence in the U.S. market, a reliable bridge that ensures stability, resilience and visibility for Italian brands.

“This transformation isn't just about adapting to change; it's about securing a long-term future where creativity, craftsmanship and authenticity are supported by solid market infrastructure. Piazza Italia was born with this vision -- provide exactly the structural presence that ‘Made in ltaly’ needs in the United States. Not predation, but permanence. Not opportunism, but strategy. Not shortlived wins, but enduring partnerships. The challenge is here, but so is the opportunity to build something lasting. Piazza Italia is the answer.

“Our motto is ‘Stronger together,’” added the man who spent more than a decade as president of the 138-year-old Italy-America Chamber of Commerce Inc. and continues to

coordinate the activities of such chambers across North America as a board member of Assocamerestero in Rome.

The strength in numbers he referred to has led to bigger numbers. During his career, the Greenwich resident has overseen the sale of more than $1 billion in “Made in Italy” products in the United States, with a good deal of that presence concentrated in such luxe retailers as Bergdorf Goodman, Neiman Marcus and Saks Fifth Avenue, all part of Saks Global Enterprises LLC; as well as Bloomingdale’s, which is owned by Macy’s Inc.

“Bloomingdale’s is one of our best partners,” he told Westfair’s Westchester County Business Journal during an appearance at the Sept. 18 reception for the store’s three-day “Fine Jewelry Showcase.” There Milani represented not only his own brand but Piazza Italia members Crivelli; and Utopia.

Alberto Milani jewelry brings together gold, precious stones and the 19th-century industrial technique of tubogas (from the Italian for “gas pipe”). The fexible corrugated pipe, patented in 1881 to transport pressurized gas, inspired jewelers as early as the 1920s. But the technique of wrapping metal strips with raised edges around a core, which is then removed to negate soldering, really took of in World War II, when metals and precious stones were scarce and, Milani added, women were working in the factories with the men of at war.

Tubogas jewelry has been a hallmark of Bulgari (pronounced “BUL ga ri”), and it is a feature of Milani’s serpentine designs – at once glamorous and understated – which he said are characterized by wearability and versatility.

Just as Milani’s creations draw on what he describes as the “classic” past and brings it into the present for today’s wearers, so Crivelli takes “a unique, contemporary approach to the diamond market,” said Marilyn Williams, Piazza Italia’s vice president of sales. Meanwhile, Utopia ofers pearls – another staple of your mother’s and grandmother’s jewelry boxes – for a new generation, Milani added.

He is particularly attuned to using yesterday to entice today’s consumers, ofering praise for Bloomingdale’s

“Competing successfully now requires not occasional attempts but a permanent structural presence in the U.S. market.” — Alberto Milani

latest campaign, an ode to the 1970s called “Just Imagine.” For Milani, the ’70s was an era of self-expression whose culture has had a strong infuence on his work.

Last year, he and Bloomingdale’s partnered on “From Italy, With Love,” with brands celebrating a variety of Italian industries. It is a mutual admiration society, he said: “They value my experience, and I value them.”

The check is in the mail (if not now then soon, says Hochul); she warns of scams

By Peter Katz / pkatz@westfairinc.com

The first inflation refund checks for New York state taxpayers are in the mail, according to Gov. Kathy Hochul. A total of 8.2 million households are due to receive the refund checks, which will disperse excess sales tax money collected due to inflation. Hochul announced the mailing of the first refund checks at a Sept. 26 event in Albany. On Sept. 28, Hochul issued a warning that scams are beginning to pop up with scammers telling people they need to make payments or provide personal information in order to receive a refund check.

In her warning, Hochul said scammers sending text messages, voice messages, emails and direct mail to taxpayers in an attempt to spread false information and steal money. Some messages falsely claim that New Yorkers must submit information in order to receive an infation refund check, supposedly so revenue agencies can deposit money into a taxpayer's bank account.

The New York State Tax Department and the IRS will not call or text New Yorkers with requests for any personal information, Hochul advised.

“New Yorkers do not have to do anything to receive an infation refund check outside of meeting the eligibility requirements,” Hochul said. “With scams targeting the state’s infation refund initiative, let me be clear: The Tax Department and the IRS do not call or text individuals for personal information. My administration urges New Yorkers to remain vigilant and report these scams to the Tax Department to protect yourself from being a victim.” Hochul announces checks are (or are going) in the mail.The amount of the check sent to a household will depend on the amount of income they reported on the 2023 state income tax return:

• Joint tax flers with income up to $150,000 will receive a $400 check.

• Joint tax flers with income over $150,000 but no greater than

Elmsford company demands $500,000 for hemp beverage rights

By Bill heltzel / bheltzel@westfairinc.com

An Elmsford distribution business is demanding $500,000 from a beverage company whose hemp drinks it used to sell.

Sarene Craft Beer Distributors sued Delta Beverages on Sept. 18 in Westchester Supreme Court for allegedly refusing to buy out the distribution rights when it cancelled their contract.

"The termination of the distribution agreement," the complaint states, "deprives Sarene of the rewards for the risk it took and its eforts to develop a

market in three states."

Serene was incorporated in 2013 by Matthew Schulman, and according to its website his brother, a cousin and a friend also were active in founding the enterprise. It represents more than a hundred brands of beer, cofee, cider, spirits and tea; operates six warehouses; and services more than 7,500 retailers.

The website for Delta Beverages, of Charlotte, North Carolina, encourages buyers to "fnd your vibe" when choosing among several fruity favored seltzers that contain hemp-based can-

nabidiol (CBD) and tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) psychoactive compounds.

Sarene began operating as Delta's exclusive distributor in New York, New Jersey and Connecticut in March 2023. At the time, according to the complaint, the market for hemp-based products was uncertain and many distributors were unwilling to take on the risks of handling such beverages.

But Sarene increased its sales staf, secured larger warehouses in New York and New Jersey, invested in new equipment, and expanded its feet of trucks. Business grew rapidly, and by the second year Sarene made a gross proft of

Contract

cancellation was a buzzkill

$300,000 will receive a $300 check.

• Single tax flers with income up to $75,000 will receive a $200 check.

• Single tax flers with incomes over $75,000 but no greater than $150,000 will receive a $150 check.

“This is your money and we're putting it back in your pockets,” Hochul said. "If your neighbor gets it (a refund check) and you don't, don't start calling us. Give us October and November. I don't know the logic behind all this but this is what I'm told is the time frame, so you'll have it just in time for your holiday shopping."

Hochul said that the state was able to amass from $2 billion to $3 billion more than had been anticipated due to infation driving up prices, which meant that consumers have been paying more in sales and use taxes.

"This is because hard working New Yorkers got slammed with higher costs of everything and they had to pay more and they had to pay more in sales tax," Hochul said. "Last I checked infation is not going down. Interest rates are still high. Washington is still slamming us with everything going up because of the tarifs."

The state says that in the Mid-Hudson region, 924,000 households will be receiving infation refund checks.

$578,766. Sarene claims that Delta was pleased with the results, yet, this past April, Delta terminated their distribution deal.

The lawsuit does not say why Delta cancelled. But it notes that either party may terminate without cause at any time, with a 90 days notice.

Sarene consented to the termination, and by doing so, the complaint states, Delta must pay Sarene the fair market value of the distribution rights.

Sarene calculated a fair market value of at least $500,000, based on strong sales and on "immense growth" in the CBD and THC beverage industry. But Delta has allegedly refused to acknowledge an obligation to pay for the distribution rights.

Sarene accused Delta of breach of contract, breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing, and unjust enrichment.

Delta's attorney, Daniel Edelman, did not reply to a message asking for his client's side of the story.

Kearney timetable shows 2027 construction start for Dobbs Ferry project

By Peter Katz / pkatz@westfairinc.com

Sean Kearney, vice president of Kearney Realty & Development Group based in Baldwin Place, has told the Dobbs Ferry Board of Trustees that a timetable prepared by the company for its forthcoming development in the village calls for construction to begin in the spring or summer of 2027.

Kearney was selected by the village to develop three village-owned lots into mixed-income housing. Seven developers responded to a Request for Qualifcations that was issued by the village. The project would transform two vacant lots on Cedar Street and a parking lot at 99 Cedar St. into housing, while also providing public parking.

The Board of Trustees has taken the position that sale of the lots to the developer and development of the sites will only proceed once an environmental review required by the State Environmental Quality Review Act is completed and the project receives all required land use approvals, including those of the Dobbs Ferry Planning Board and the Board of Trustees.

In a presentation to the Board of Trustees, Sean Kearney said that since being selected in April as the developer, the company has completed title reports for the properties, completed boundary and topological reports, completed the frst phase of the envi-

ronmental site assessment, and is working on preliminary site design and building plans. It plans to begin the community engagement phase, including meetings with residents, early in 2026.

"We look to create one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments serving Westchester area median incomes (AMI) of 30%, 60% 90%, all the way up to 115%," Kearney said. "That's a pretty wide range of incomes that's typically not provided in traditional afordable housing."

According to current AMI calculations, the 30% AMI would be an annual income of $35,702 and the annual income of a tenant earning 115% of the AMI would be $226,676.

Kearney said that they would like to use the sloping topography to create at the Cedar Street parking lot a parking deck in the lower section of the parcel and then construct a building above. He said they would like to do an all-electric building that uses renewable energy, especially solar and geothermal. He said they would provide electric vehicle charging stations as well as indoor bike storage.

Kearney said that they currently are planning to apply for funding for the project in the fall of next year and if they are successful would look to buy the properties from the village in 2027.

"When we hone in on a unit count and know how many parking spaces

“We look to create one-, twoand threebedroom apartments serving incomes from 30% to 115% of the area median — a range rarely ofered in traditional afordable housing.”

and units we'll have a trafc consultant to do not only a trafc study but a parking study," Kearney said. "They'll look at the peak times. the commuters will have diferent peak times than the residential and the same with anyone using the parking lot for Main Street businesses. I think there will be some efciencies that we can fnd based on the peak demands."

According to Dobbs Ferry Mayor Vincent Rossillo, "The goal is to create homes for folks like teachers, nurses, municipal workers, seniors, and young professionals, who want to move to or stay in Dobbs Ferry but for whom there isn't currently enough housing."

Rossillo has assured Dobbs Ferry residents of on-going community involvement as the projects plans are developed.

"The impact on our community will be analyzed as closely as any other development, with public hearings and consideration from both our Planning Board and Board of Trustees, as well as all required environmental reviews. Plus, we ensured this agreement adds even more public engagement, with additional public workshops hosted by the Kearney Group. And it’s important to note that we will not sell village property until we have an approved plan," Rossillo said.

Sikorsky gets $10.8B military helicopter contract

By Peter Katz / pkatz@westfairinc.com

The Lockheed Martin helicopter company Sikorsky, which is based in Stratford, has been awarded a government contract worth up to $10.855 billion. It's from the U.S. Navy to build up to a maximum of 99 CH-53K King Stallion helicopters. The helicopters will be delivered over a period of five years from 2029 through 2034 for use by the U.S. Marine Corps.

“This award refects trust and confdence in Sikorsky to deliver these technologically advanced, heavy-lift helicopters that will revolutionize the Marine Corps' operational capabilities by adding unrivaled power, performance, survivability and dependability to the feet,” said Rich Benton, Sikorsky vice president and general manager. “The multi-year contract enables Sikorsky to partner with the Department of the Navy to drive long-term afordability, optimize production efciencies and stabilize our supply chain and workforce, ensuring the Marines maintain the strategic advantage with the CH-53K in a rapidly evolving battlespace.”

Sikorsky says that materials to

build the helicopters come from 267 suppliers in the U.S. that are located in 37 states. In addition, 17 overseas suppliers are in eight countries.

Under previous contracts, Sikorsky has delivered 20 CH-53K helicopters to the Marine Corps and an additional 63 of the helicopters are in various stages of production and assembly. In all, Sikorsky will have supplied 200 of the CH-53K aircraft to the Marines once all of the current contracts have been fulflled.

Sikorsky designed the CH-53K to transport troops, supplies and heavy equipment. It notes that the combined power from each of the CH-53K aircraft’s three 7,500 shaft horsepower engines can lift three times the load of its CH-53E predecessor. The helicopter also is capable of being refueled while in fight.

The Navy said there currently are 20 CH-53K aircraft in operation with the Marine Corps and that by committing to long-term contracts such as the new fve-year contract for Sikorsky the Navy is reducing costs while making deployment of new equipment more predictable.

Former NYC financier ‘Howie’ Rubin indicted for sex tra cking women

By Gary Larkin / glarkin@westfairinc.com

FAIRFIELD – A 10-count indictment was unsealed Friday in federal court in Brooklyn charging retired New Yorkbased financier Howard ‘Howie’ Rubin along with his personal assistant, Jennifer Powers, with sex tra cking and transporting women in interstate commerce for sex acts with Rubin.

Rubin, 70, was arrested Friday morning in Fairfeld and was arraigned in the afternoon in federal court in Brooklyn before U.S. Magistrate Judge Peggy Kuo. Powers, 45, was arrested in Texas Friday morning. She is scheduled to make her initial appearance on Monday in federal court in the Northern District of Texas. Powers will be arraigned in the Eastern District of New York at a later date.

Rubin was also charged with bank fraud in connection with misrepresentations made to a If convicted of transporting women to engage in commercial sex acts, the defendants face a maximum sentence of 10 years’ imprisonment on each count. If Rubin is convicted of bank fraud, he faces a maximum sentence of 30 years’ imprisonment.

bank in the course of fnancing Powers’ mortgage for her Texas home.

Joseph Nocella Jr., U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of New York; Christopher G. Raia, Assistant Director in Charge, New York Field Ofce (FBI); and Harry T. Chavis, Jr., special agent in charge, IRS Criminal Investigation, New York (IRS-CI New York) announced the arrests and indictment.

“As alleged, the defendants used Rubin’s wealth to mislead and recruit women to engage in commercial sex acts, where Rubin then tortured women beyond their consent, causing lasting physical and/or psychological pain, and in some cases physical injuries,” Nocella said. “Today’s arrests show that no one who engages in sex trafcking, in this case in luxury hotels and a penthouse apartment that featured a so-called sex ‘dungeon,’ is above the law, and that they will be brought to justice. Human beings are not chattel to be exploited for sex and sadistically abused, and anyone who thinks otherwise can expect to fnd themselves in handcufs and facing federal prosecution like these defendants.”

The FBI’s Raia added that for many years, Rubin and Powers allegedly spent at least $1 million to fnance the commercial sexual torture of multiple women via a national trafcking network.

“The FBI will continue to apprehend any trafcker who sexually abuses others for twisted gratifcation,” Raia said.

Special Agent in Charge of IRS-CI Chavis explained how the sex trafcking ring went down.

“It’s alleged Rubin directed a sex trafcking enterprise, exploiting women who were transported from across the country to his Manhattan penthouse that was equipped with a soundproof sex room flled with BDSM equipment, including a device used to shock the women,” he said. “This was not a one-man show. While

The Fairfeld resident faces up to 30 years; assistant also charged

Rubin dehumanized these women with abhorrent sexual acts, Powers is alleged to have run the day-to-day operations of the enterprise and got paid generously for her eforts. Rubin, now retired, built his wealth in New York City working in fnance. Powers, became his personal assistant around 2011, and managed the logistical aspects of their commercial sex operation. As alleged in the indictment, between 2009 and 2019, Rubin and Powers recruited multiple women to travel to New York City to engage in commercial sex acts with Rubin involving bondage, discipline, dominance, submission and masochism (BDSM), and some of the women were trafcked.

As alleged, Rubin and Powers,

together with others, recruited women to engage in commercial sex acts with Rubin. Powers frequently arranged the women’s fights to New York to LaGuardia or JFK International airports in Queens and then transported them to the penthouse. During many of these encounters, Rubin brutalized women’s bodies, causing them to fear for their safety and/or resulting in signifcant pain and injuries.

As further alleged in the indictment, Rubin and Powers required the women to sign non-disclosure agreements (NDAs), which purported to require the women to assume the risk of the hazards and injury of the BDSM encounters with Rubin, prohibit the disclosure of information about the BDSM sex with Rubin and require the payment of damages in the event of a breach.

After the sexual encounters, Rubin and/or Powers used Rubin’s money to pay the women by wire transfer or a payment service such as PayPal or Venmo. At times, Powers structured the payments to avoid sending a single transaction of $10,000 or more, to avoid triggering reporting obligations by the bank.

The indictment alleges the defendants spent at least $1 million of Rubin’s money operating and maintaining the trafcking network.

The government’s case is being handled by the Ofce’s Human Trafcking and Civil Rights Section. Assistant United States Attorneys Kayla Bensing, Tara McGrath, and Rafaela S. Belizaire are in charge of the prosecution, with the assistance of Paralegal Specialists Marlane Bosler and Timothy Migliaro
