Born Again Exit 7 Begins to Emerge at White Plains East Gateway

Hits: 0


WPCNR FREEWAY FLYER By John F. Bailey. August 25, 2009: The ongoing construction at the Exit 6,7,8 area paralleling and above the Cross Westchester Expressway is taking shape. Gregory Kisloff, Community Liaison for the I-287 Stage III Reconstruction Project put together a graphic explanation of how the project, the Department of Transportation hopes will eliminate the criss-cross traffic patern at the Exit 7 area that has plagued the area for decades. The new Exit 7, taking shape between the North Street bridge and the Westchester Avenue cross-over, is scheduled to open in the spring of 2009. Here’s how it works.


 



 


 


New I-287 Exit 7 Ramp “I” is being positioned  under construction  under Westchester Avenue Westbound Overpass  leading into White Plains, and beginning about halfway between the North Street cross over ramp (railing in photo) and the Westchester Avenue Overpass (background) ( The scene of the new ram is shown at a distance above, and closeup below)


 



 


 


 



 


New Exit 7  Ramp I ( in yellow) show as it passes under the Westchester Avenue (westbound into White Plains), allowing westbound I-287 traffic to exit into White Plains to Central Westchster Parkway and local streets without crossing speeding up I-287 westbound entering motorists.


 


Kisloff  explains: “this relocated interchange takes existing Westbound I-287 traffic off the mainline roadway (of I-287) onto Westchester Avenue, en route to Central Westchester Parkway, while merging with two lanes of westbound traffic emanating from Bloomingdale Road and the Westchester Mall Ramp U and with the On-Ramp H adjacent to Underhill Avenue. “


 



The Merge: (Close up of above diagram): Ramp I , the new Exit 7 ramp from I-287 westbound (in yellow) merges with Ramp U, lower left, forming 3-lane frontage road.Ramp H (above the new Exit 7) carries traffic from Underhill Avenue bound for I-287 or local streets.


 


Kisloff notes the advantage of the new configuration:  “This merge results in a three-lane frontage road,  Ramp I, carrying three lanes of traffic westbound, allowing traffic to enter the Central Westchester Parkway, enter the I-287 westbound, or exit onto local roads near the existing (present) Exit 7 ramp, east of the Grant Avenue Bridge and west of Ramp G.”


 


“This new frontage road will serve to eliminate much of the weaving and merging problems currently experienced by motorists between the entrance ramp past Westchester Avenue and the existing Exit 7 ramp.”


 


WPCNR observes that the new three-lane frontage road allows cars entering 287 to get up to speed to enter I-287 westbound, but still means that  2 lanes of those cars have to merge into the main I-287 westbound. Whether, the diversion of Central Westchester Parkway and local streets bound traffic from I-287 via the new Exit 7 Ramp I will ease the four-lane into one merge that now exists at that  entry-exit point, is a question that will be answered in the spring.

School District Issues Guidelines to Deal With Possible Cases of Swine Flue

Hits: 0

WPCNR SCHOOL DAYS. From Brenda Madera, R.N., School Nurse Coordinator,  Office of Medical and Health Services, White Plains City School District. August 24, 2009: We are sure you are all aware that people are still becoming ill from the H1N1 flu strain. No one quite knows what to expect in the upcoming flu season so we wanted to remind you of a few things that will help keep the virus from spreading over the summer and when the students return to school in September. The following are recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC):

* Wash your hands often with soap and water. Use hand sanitizers correctly if soap and water aren’t available. Children should be taught to wash their hands long enough to sing “Happy Birthday” twice.


* Avoid people who are ill. If someone in your home becomes ill, limit caregivers to one or two people. This spread of the virus slows down significantly when sick people are kept away from others.


* Contact your child’s and/or your doctor if symptoms are severe such as shortness of breath, disorientation, skin/lips becomes bluish, fever that doesn’t respond to medication or the person does not seem to be getting any better. Anyone with an underlying illness like asthma should see their doctor if they become ill.


* Stay home from work or school if you are sick. Children should not be sent back to school until they are symptom free without medication for 24 hours. If students are still sick, they will be sent back home. Please pick up your child in a timely manner so they don’t expose others to their germs in the nurse’s office.


* Use tissues when you cough or sneeze or do it in the crook of your arm. Dispose of tissues immediately and wash your hands.


* Keep hands away from your face. Avoid touch your eyes, nose or mouth.


* Clean shared space and items like phone receivers and keyboards more often.


* Don’t share items like forks, spoons, tooth brushes and towels.


Please help us keep everyone healthy by following the guidelines above. We are in constant contact with the Department of Health for updates on the virus and will share any information that we think might be helpful to you in the future.

Rockford Thunder Come Back to Win Pro Fastpitch Championship, 2-0

Hits: 0

WPCNR PRESS BOX. From National Pro Fastpitch. August 24, 2009: The Rockford Thunder captured their first Cowles Cup at Firestone Stadium  in Akron, Ohio, on Sunday afternoon crowning them the 2009 NPF champions as they defeated the USSSA Pride 2-0 in the final game of the season.  Rockford climbed back from a 1-0 deficit and near elimination to win both of their series on the weekend and become champions.




 
Cat Osterman led the way with her second complete game shut out of the day only allowing the Pride to have one single and a walk on the day.  Between the two games on Sunday, Osterman struck out an amazing 26 batters and only gave up four hits.  For the tournament, Osterman struck out 50 batters in 31 innings in five starts, pitching 31 of her team’s 41 innings.

The only player to get on for the Pride in game three was Oli Keohohou who drew a walk and hit an infield single that bounced off of Osterman’s glove in the fifth inning.
 
The Thunder picked up enough offense for Osterman against tough pitching by Sarah Pauly and Monica Abbott.  Leadoff hitter Shanel Scott got Rockford going right away with a hit to left field jsut past a diving Kristin Schnake.  Scott would eventually score on a sacrfice bunt by Lyndsey Angus to give Rockford a 1-0 lead.  For good measure, Chelsea Spencer added another run when she blasted a towering shot that soared over the center field fence for a solo home run.
 
The home run would be the last pitch Pauly threw as the Pride turned to Abbott, who shut down Rockford’s offense the rest of the way.  Abbott gave up a signle to the first hitter she faced, but then retired 12 of the next 13 hitters to close out the game.  Even though Abbott kept the Pride close, Osterman wouldn’t allow the Pride offense an opportunity to get back in the game.

 
Following the game Osterman was announced as the MVP of the NPF Championship weekend after picking up all of her team’s victories.  The Thunder ace allowed only gave up an astonishing two runs, one earned, in her five starts of the tournament.

Feiner: Offer $$$ to Burbs to Invite Affordable Housing In

Hits: 0

WPCNR THE FEINER REPORT. By Paul Feiner, Greenburgh Town Supervisor. August 24, 2009:

Westchester County officials should consider providing financial incentives to neighborhoods that agree to implement the desegregation agreement–which will require 750 affordable homes or apartments, 630 which must be provided in towns and villages where black and hispanic residents make up a small portion of the community.  I suggest that Westchester County Executive Andrew Spano and the members of the Westchester County Board of Legislators schedule a meeting with all the mayors & Town Supervisors to discuss the implementation of any affordable housing plan.



, comptroller’s office should be asked to sign off on the plan.

As a former member of the Housing Committee of the Westchester County Board of Legislators and as  Town Supervisor of Greenburgh – I have been very interested in affordable housing initiatives. In recent decades almost every elected official has supported affordable housing until it’s proposed in their community. Voters usually support the election of candidates who stand for affordable housing until the proposed units are recommended in their back yards.  The aggressive NIMBY reactions from residents in most communities in Westchester against any affordable housing  has resulted in few affordable housing units being built in the county in recent decades.

Recently the Greenburgh Town Board approved a zoning change to allow for workforce housing in the Fulton Park neighborhood. Although the housing is going to be situated across the street from a deli,  a Verizon office building & Staples  store – many residents came out against the proposal. They also motivated other civic associations within the town to oppose the project.  The location of this complex is ideal for affordable housing – within walking distance from  downtown White plains, the White Plains train station, Central Ave.  The site was previously used for homeless housing and before that was a sleezy hotel. If an affordable housing proposal for working people at this location is controversial – it is not unreasonable to assume that there will be significant opposition to all the units of housing that are proposed by the county–no matter where it is located.

 

If the county enters into a stipulation with the federal government and promises to build affordable housing within the county – it is important that a plan be implemented to reduce neighborhood opposition. If neighborhoods receive benefits if housing is placed in their community – members of the community might reluctantly support the housing instead of fighting it.

 

The county should consider offering  to acquire and pay for additional open space in the immediate neighborhoods impacted by the housing units.  Another financial incentive that should be considered: the county should pay for the costs of educating the additional children who will be attending the public schools. Perhaps, additional grants could be made by the county to the affected school district to provide enhancements for other students (such as free SAT preparation courses). Other financial incentives to neighborhoods that are impacted by any stipulation should be considered. 

 

 Some people might suggest that it’s unfair for the county to reward neighborhoods that accept affordable housing. I disagree.  Neighborhoods are accepting a social responsibility that others neighborhoods don’t want.   The bottom line: The county should make affordable housing so appealable to neighborhoods that residents feel that their property values will go up because they will receive amenities not available to others  if the housing is placed near them.  Maybe we can make affordable housing so appealable that communities will compete for the privilege of having affordable housing within their boundaries.

 

Obviously, if this kind of agreement is implemented – a legal agreement will have to be approved. The State Attorney General’s office

Assisted Living Facilities Not Required to Have Emergency Power On Site: State

Hits: 0


WPCNR THE POWER NEWS. By John F. Bailey. UPDATED 3:30 P.M. E.D.T., August 20, 2009: According to the New York State Department of Health, New York state “assisted living facilities” like the Esplanade Senior Residence in White Plains are not required to have on premises an emergency source of power in case of a power outage.


 


The question of a backup power source came up after the 130 tenants of The Esplanade were without power for about five hours Thursday evening as result of a burned out feeder cable beneath Mamaroneck Avenue.





According to Jeffrey Hammond, spokesperson for the New York State Department of Health, “Assisted living facilities are required to have in place and to follow an established protocol to insure the comfort and safety of the residents.” Asked if this stopped short of requiring a source of emergency power, Hammond said  that was correct.


 


Last night, White Plains Department of Public Safety opted not to attempt to evacuate the 130 tenants of the Esplanade, because of the difficulty and health risks involved.


 


Currently there are two assisted living facilities planned for construction in White Plains, the Kensington assisted living facility on Maple Avenue and Longview Avenue and the North Street Community senior condominiums and assisted living facility.


 


Frank Pagani of Thompson & Bender, speaking for the North Street Community  reports this afternoon that the North Street Community assisted living facility planned for the former St. Agnes Hospital site will have total emergency backup: “Regarding your inquiry, the assisted living facility planned for North Street will have 100% back up for life safety operations (sprinklers, emergency lighting, automatic doors) and the Heating Ventilation Air Conditioning system. And, in about 3-4 months, building 311 (doctors’ offices facility) will be 100% backed up in case of a power failure.”


 


Damon Amadio, White Plains Commissioner of Building, advised WPCNR Thursday afternoon that the Kensington whose plans have not been finalized was required to have emergency back up for its fire pump, elevators, and lighting, and said he’d be very surprised if the building was not planning on installing a full power backup facility. Amadio said the Kensington was required to by code because of its height and number of proposed residents.


 


Amadio reported that nursing homes in the city were required by national and state law to have full emergency power backup systems. He said that facilities without backup systems have been known to contract with outside generator-supply companies to rent generators to keep the facilities operating during an extended power outage period. He said according to the city code, buildings were not allowed to keep buildings occupied when the temperature in them dropped below 50 degrees, but there was no city ordinance saying a building could not be occupied when it reached a maximum temperature. Amadio was checking into whether or not the Senior Armory Residence had an emergency generator.


 


Mr. Hammond of the Public Affairs Office of the Department of Health said that persons  as a Hotline persons can call to report concerns they have about assisted living facilities which keeps identity anonymous. That HOTLINE is 1-866-893-6772.


 


The Department of Communications of Westchester County told WPCNR that the Esplanade and all other assisted living facilities in the county are strictly under the jurisdiction of the New York State Department of Health, which regulates how those facilities are constructed and managed.

Con Edison Restores Power to Esplanade

Hits: 0

WPCNR THE POWER NEWS. UPDATED 1:35 P.M. E.D.T. August 20, 2009 UPDATED from 11 P.M. E.D.T. Thursday evening.:  White Plains Department of Public Safety reports this morning that power was restored to 95 South Broadway, the Esplanade Senior Residence as of 11:30 P.M. Thursday night after police, fire and EMS personnel spent the evening checking on individual residents to see that they had water and were not suffering ill effects from the heat.


Bob McGee, spokesperson for Con Edison said this afternoon,  exact cause of what circumstances created the feeder cable outage are still under investigation: John, we ran the shunt to expedite repairs on the feeder in an effort to normalize the system as quickly as possible. We won’t know what caused the cable to fail till we do an autopsy at the Cable Center.


McGee confirmed at 10:50 A.M. Thursday morning that “the generator was brought in (by Con Ed) but not used. We managed to get a feeder repaired in the meantime. The generator remains on standby at the site, though. We did run a shunt. I am trying to confirm whether or not it was used. Ongoing work to repair the burnouts will last about a week.”


Deputy Commissioner of Public Safety Daniel Jackson gave WPCNR this update as of 8:30 this morning on traffic:


All lights functioning properly / power was restored to 95 S Broadway at approx 2330hrs (Con-Ed generator brought to location)


Mamk Av open for rush hour.  Work scheduled for later in the day may close a lane in each direction betwen Post and Maple. Hamilton Av (from Cottage to MLK) – One lane closed on west side

60 So. Broadway – Work scheduled for daytime /  currently road is open.

Lyon Pl (Con – Ed working in front of 95 S. Broadway) / Road open


 


Con Ed pays the O.T.


Later Thursday morning, Commissioner Jackson advised WPCNR thatabout 10 police and 15 fire personnel were on scene at the busiest point.  Con Edison will be paying the cost of any overtime incurred, including the officers on traffic control needed during the continuing repairs.” He confirmed only one person transported to the hospital for difficulty breathing.


Bob McGee, spokesman for Consolidated Edison told WPCNR Thursday  morning that a feeder cable broke at 7:37 P.M. Wednesday night and Con Ed received calls from 55-75 South Broadway and the Esplanade shortly thereafter. He is checking at this time to confirm whether power has been restored by running wire to the Esplanade or whether a generator is being used.McGee said that the cause of such feeder cable outages is a build up of heat underground during a heat wave and they usually take place about three days into a heatwave. He said it makes no difference whether it is new feeder cable or old that the buildup of heat will result in cable fires the longer a heat wave continues. This was the first Consolidated Edison power outage of the summer in White Plains this summer.

Deputy Commissioner of Public Safety John Cullen reported that  police and fire personnel and EMS medical personnel were checking room to room at the Esplanade assisted living facility at 95 South Broadway, checking to see that residents are all right, and supplying water to them as needed. Cullen said fire personnel were attempting to ventilate the building while power was waiting to be restored. There were no plans to evacuate the residence where 130 senior residents live. One person having trouble breathing was removed to a hospital, he said.


Commissioner Cullen said Con Edison was on the scene at 11 P.M. attempting to hook up a temporary generator to restore power to the residence.


At the time the outage was being repaired, Elizabeth Clark, spokesperson for Con Ed said the company had crews on the scene and will either install a replacement generator or run in “shunts,” that she describes as temporary wires running power to the building. Ms. Clark said she did not know whether the Esplanade had an emergency generator on the premises. She had no estimate when power would be restored or the cause of the power failure at this time.


Cullen reported the city started having power problems at 5 P.M., as a result of a manhole fire at 164 Mamaroneck Avenue, which he said knocked out power to 75 South Broadway, 95 South Broadway (The Esplanade assisted living building), and 2 to 4 Lyons Place. He said power was restored to 75 Broadway, and Con Ed was working on the Esplanade at this time.

Glen Hockley Files with Board of Elections To Run as Independent for Mayor

Hits: 0



WPCNR CAMPAIGN 2009 By John F. Bailey. August 18, 2009: City Councilman Glen Hockley submitted petitions to the Westchester County Board of Elections today, totaling by Mr. Hockley’s estimate, 1,800 to 2,000 signatures, to run for Mayor of the City of White Plains, Hockley told WPCNR this evening. He told WPCNR he had a plan to control the rise of property taxes in the city, saying details would be spelled out in his coming campaign.


 


 



 


Glen Hockley at Common Council work session, July.


 


Hockley said he gathered “a bunch of the signatures” himself, going house to house in 90 degree heat, under threatening skies, and with the help of  loyal supporters.  Hockley will the lone opposition in the November Mayoral race facing Adam Bradley, the nominee who has the Democratic, Republican, Conservative, Independence and Working Families Party lines.Hockley’s sigantures of course, are subject to verification and legality by the Board of Elections.


 


 


Hockley said when he serves as Mayor he will be serving with the people of the city of White Plains and would have their best interests in mind. He told WPCNR he would begin campaigning after Labor Day, and one of the cornerstones of his campaign will be a plan to bring property taxes under control.


 


He said he would be concentrating on pocketbook issues that would help the citizens of  White Plains get along financially. He said he would not be beholden to any particular party philosophy, and that his knowledge of the city finances gathered from his six and ½  years on the Common Council made him qualified to fix the city problems.


 


He thanked his supporters who helped him acquire the signatures placing him on the ballot.



 


Hockley had sought the Republican nomination for Mayor, but was denied consideration, though Mr. Hockley has loyally supported many of the Mayor Joseph Delfino’s initiatives: the City Center, the 221 Main hotel complex, the 1/2% increase in the sales tax, among the most significant. It is also not known whether Mayor Delfino will bankroll the Hockley run from the Mayor’s $106,000-plus Friends of Joseph Delfino political war chest that now has no war to fight.


 


Mr. Hockley according to the New York State Board of Elections, as of July 31, 2009, had $1,453.56 in his Citizens for Glen Hockley Campaign Fund, while Mr. Bradley had $239,643.67, (and Mr. Bradley continues to raise money).


 


Should the Board of Elections find Mr. Hockley’s petitions in order, the campaign will pit Mr. Hockley against Adam Bradley,


 



Glen Hockley, left, and Adam Bradley, right in March, 2002 when Mr. Bradley successfully fought for Mr. Hockley to be seated on the Common Council all the way to the state’s highest court.


 


 



Hockley being sworn in, March 15, 2002, after victory in New York’s highest court.


 


Mr. Bradley’s legal efforts on Mr. Hockley’s behalf resulted in Mr. Hockley’s ascending to the Common Council in 2002 after a legal battle up to the New York State Court of Appeals stemming from a jammed voting machine in White Plains District 18. The Court of Appeals ruled that the courts did not have the authority to call new elections to recontest District 18, allowing Mr. Hockley to assume his post on the Common Council in March 2002.


 


Hockley was subsequently removed from the Common Council by order of New York State Attorney General at the time, Eliot Spitzer, as a result of a quo warranto action initiated by lawyer Jeffrey Binder on behalf of  former Councilman Larry Delgado, who was seated on the Council in 2003. Hockley was re-elected to the Common Council in 2005. Binder oddly enough is now organizing a fundraiser for Mr. Bradley.

White Plains Has Soft July Down 12.5% in Sales Tax Rev: Projects to $6M Deficit

Hits: 0

 


 


WPCNR QUILL & EYESHADE. By John F. Bailey. August 18, 2009: White Plains retail sales subject to state sales tax collections continued their decline, down 12.5% year to year in the first month of the city fiscal year in July, the second straight month sales tax had declined from the previous year. This latest number continues the trend first reported by WPCNR six months ago indicating White Plains retail is running 12% behind 2007-2008 collections.



 


 


Though there are 11 months to in the fiscal year, unless the city economy picks up and vacant big retail properties are filled (former Fortunoff, Circuit City, Filene’s Basement, just three), the city now faces the prospect of being $6 Million off in projected sales tax revenues they are counting on for 2009-2010. Official figures for July 2009 were provided WPCNR by The New York State Department of Taxation and Finance.


 


If sales tax does not recover significantly (and holds at the present level),  to make up that shortfall, the city would have to enact an 18% property tax increase.


 


The County of Westchester sales tax receipts are down 12.9% over the first six months of the county 2009 fiscal year.





Common Council President Benjamin Boykin told WPCNR in July, when the final quarter of 2008-09 fiscal year failed to meet projections of the City Finance Commissioner by $1 Million , that he is going to call for a budget review in September.


 


Westchester County sales tax collections in the first six months of 2009 have declined  too. The county “handle” on sales tax receipts is down 13%. The county collected $33.8 Million less in fiscal 2009 at the halfway point than the county did in 2008, according to statistics from the New York State Department of Taxation and Finance Office of Tax Policy Analysis.


 


The pace of retail sales projected by White Plains Week and WPCNR in the spring of this year continues to indicate key sales tax collection in the city are consistently 12 to 13% off.


 


On the county level the county as of midway is running $3.8 Million behind in sales tax receipts, 12.5% below the collection pace of last year after half of the 2009 fiscal year. If the retail trend continues, the county would face a $3.8 Million deficit in sales tax receipts for the year.  The county budgeted to collect $478,235,000 in sales tax for the year.


 


In the first six months of 2008, Westchester County collected $271,096,156.95  in sales tax. In the first six months of 2009, they collected only $237,221,726.61, a decline in receipts of 12.5%.


 


This combined with obvious deficits in mortgage and hotel tax collections is not a positive trend.


 


In White Plains if the 12.9% fall-off in retail sales  tax collections continues it means the city faces a $6 Million budget shortfall. It already has a $1 Million deficit left over from 2008-09. The city budget calls for collecting  $47,250,000 in sales tax in 2009-2010. If the 12.9% decline continues, the city will only raise $41 Million in sales tax.


 


However, August is the second most lucrative retail sales month of the year next to the holiday season in the second quarter, so there is hope this is just a sluggish start. To correct the nearly 13% decline in July, the city would need to generate a half million dollars more in August sales tax receipts to get back on track with sales tax pace. In August, 2008, the city collected $3.9 Million in sales tax (however that was inflated by the additional ¼% sales tax added last year. The cumulative effect of a soft retail market is not easily erased.
