Dear Readers:
In a story below, you will read what appears to be Democrat nominee for Yorktown Council, Dave Paganelli endorsing Republican nominee Terrence Murphy for Yorktown Council. Actually that is what the respective party leaders will read. That is because party leaders are so partisan that they can not abide a candidate saying anything nice about a member of the opposing party even if it's the truth. The party kool-ade supercedes the truth. This is what's wrong with politics and is the main cause of voter apathy.
Paganelli speaking as a restaurant owner was speaking about another candidate, a fellow restaurant owner. As a person who spent most of his adult life in the restaurant business, I can tell you this is a special fraternity. To succeed you have to treat people as individuals not hyphenated groups. The only thing that really matter is that the customer can pay the bill. You also know you cannot run at a loss and prosper, nor can you continue to price yourself out of business. Unlike politicians who can raise taxes when they spend more that they take in because the citizen is a captive audience, a restaurant owner knows the value of a dollar. They also know there are no paid sick days of paid holidays, you don't work, there is no income.
What you the voters are seeing a breath of fresh air. People running for office who are willing to speak the truth to you regardless of party label. For you apathetic voters who see no difference in candidates, you should now cheer this. These are the type of candidates you have been wishing for. These are the type of candidates you should be supporting. To now feign outrage that your candidate would compliment another candidate from another party is like wanting to go to heaven with out dying to do so.
Tell your party leaders to back off. Let's not turn on the darkness. Let honesty and honest candidates reign.

Peters heads Yorktown Democratic slate; first-timer Paganelli backed for board
By Brian J. Howard • bjhoward@lohud.com • June 7, 2009
YORKTOWN - Supervisor Don Peters will seek a second term this fall, leading a Democratic slate that includes a Town Board incumbent, a first-time candidate and a councilman looking to become a justice.
The Democratic committee caucused Monday, with the Town Board opening created by Councilman Matt Metz's plans to step down drawing the most interest.
Of the seven candidates interviewed for the two board seats, Councilman Louis Campisi and restaurant owner Dave Paganelli got the nod. The committee cross-endorsed Republican Eric DiBartolo for another term as highway superintendent while Metz, an administrative law judge for Westchester County and a former Bronx County prosecutor, was nominated for town justice.
"If we pull it off, we would be making a little bit of history," Metz said, noting no one on the committee could recall a councilman running for justice. "After eight years on the board, and it's been a great eight years, I think I'm at the point where I would be excited about a new challenge."
This is the first run for Paganelli, who owns The Travelers Rest on Route 100.
"My thinking is the whole public servant part of running for public office has been lost on a lot of people," the 30-year resident said. Paganelli, 54, supports consolidation of public services and said taxes are out of line. Despite the bad economy, he said it was a good time to be involved in government because people were more willing to make tough choices.
Paganelli said Terrence Murphy, a GOP nominee for Town Board, brings a similar perspective as a fellow restaurant owner. Murphy agreed. "You'd have three guys who know how to run a business," he said, referring to Paganelli and Peters, who owns a sporting goods store in town. "If you have $50 million in revenue and your expenses are $51 million, that's a problem. It doesn't take a genius to figure this out. You can't keep passing these costs on to the taxpayers."
Mark Drexel is the GOP's second board candidate. Some who failed to win the Democratic nomination expressed displeasure Tuesday at a Town Board meeting.
"This was the Democratic Party's chance to make the case for the rest of the Democratic voters in Yorktown that they're at least willing to put up somebody that represents their own party," said Steve Gardner, seeking a highway superintendent nomination.
Nick DiTomaso, a Town Board hopeful, also expressed his dissatisfaction.
Party Chairwoman Tricia Mulligan said the caucus was the party's most open in years, letting members nominate and vote for their choice of candidates in open forum.
Gardner and DiTomaso were interviewed by the committee but not nominated. Gardner said he hasn't decided on seeking a primary but plans to run independently.

A MESSAGE FROM WESTCHESTER COUNTY LEGISLATOR GEORGE OROS:
MTA Payroll Tax Devastating to Westchester
Oros Raises Concerns to State Senate Delegation at Public Hearing
Westchester County Legislator George Oros (R/Cortlandt) expressed his concerns about the affect recently enacted state legislation imposing a payroll tax on residents and businesses will have on Westchester and 11 other counties in the Metropolitan Transportation Authority region during a New York State Senate public hearing.
Speaking before the Program Development Committee at Mercy College in Yorktown, Oros told the panel of Republican state senators, all of whom opposed the controversial payroll tax, Westchester alone would have to find $1.6 million that was not accounted for in the 2009 budget to cover the tax.
“It’s going to have a devastating affect. It was just wrong,” Oros said. “This outrageous decision will slow economic recovery, hurt not-for-profit agencies and severely hurt small businesses and middle class working families.”
The bailout bill for the MTA mandates that all employers, including not-for-profits and school districts, will have to pay 34 cents per every $100 payroll expense in taxes.
In February, Oros led a coalition of Lower Hudson Valley county legislators in calling attention to the so-called mobility payroll tax that was being considered to help offset the MTA’s reported $1.2 billion deficit. The tax was recommended by the Commission on Metropolitan Transportation Authority Financing in a report to Governor David Paterson.
In the MTA region, which includes Westchester, Putnam, Dutchess, Rockland and Orange counties, municipalities and employees currently pay six separate taxes or fees to the MTA. Westchester County government provides $37 million as a direct subsidy to the MTA.
The panel was convened to hear from business people their concerns about how to make New York State more business friendly. In addition to the MTA Payroll Tax, Oros emphasized to the Senators the need for the state bureaucracy to be more “consumer” oriented and keep in mind that “state agencies and departments work for the taxpayer – not the other way around.”
“It’s good to see legislators from Albany get into the community and see and hear what happens in the real world,” Oros said.

"I can't - and won't - watch any longer."

She's also been an advocate for the unsewered Hallocks Mill Homeowners for the past six years and has fought for a more open and transparent government in Yorktown.

A MESSAGE FROM CANDIDATE FOR WESTCHESTER DISTRICT ATTORNEY DAN SCHORR:
STATEMENT FROM DAN SCHORR REGARDING GOVERNOR PATERSON'S DEFENSE OF THE ROCKEFELLER DRUG LAW REFORMS SEAL PROVISION
June 4, 2009
"I was disheartened to learn that Governor Paterson is defending a provision in the Rockefeller Drug Law reforms that allows convicted felons to have their records sealed from potential employers. The Governor's support for this proposal puts the interests of criminals ahead of the safety of all New Yorkers, particularly children and seniors.
I support efforts to rehabilitate those suffering from drug addictions; however, concealing a criminal record of any kind to potential employers undermines all of the protections we have worked so hard to put into place. I urge Governor Paterson and the legislature to repeal this provision before it is set to take effect on Monday."
Dan Schorr is a former prosecutor in Queens and Westchester counties and is currently running for Westchester District Attorney.

A MESSAGE FROM ASSEMBLYWOMAN SANDRA GALEF;
*Assemblywoman Galef Applauds Passage of Bill to Help Ease Local Government Consolidations or Dissolutions*
Legislation Could Lower Taxes, Streamline Services for New Yorkers/*
(June 2, 2009) /Assemblywoman Sandy Galef announced new opportunities for consolidation or dissolution of local governments. The passing of the N.Y. Government Reorganization and Citizen Empowerment Act (A8501) on June 1, 2009 which Galef co-sponsored will empower citizens, officials, and counties to reorganize outdated and inefficient local governments. Through a series of user-friendly procedures, individuals will be able to consolidate or dissolve local government entities more easily than before.
“The recent economic downturn has given us an opportunity to reform governments at all levels. There are 10,521 local governments in the state. It is time government does its part to minimize layers of government which result in waste and duplication of services so that we can deliver real tax savings to working families,” said Galef. “In April, I started a task force in my assembly district to look at ways we can reduce overhead and streamline operations at the local level to offer services more efficiently. This bill will surely be of interest to the members of my task force as well as all the residents of my district,” Galef stated.
A recent example of the cost of these many layers of government which has been circulating is that of the Gordon Heights Fire District on Long Island. It has been reported that people living in this district pay as much as $2,600 in property taxes for fire protection.
Under the act, the consolidation or dissolution of local government entities may be initiated in one of two ways:
* A*/ /governing body-initiated process* is triggered by the
development and approval of a proposed written plan for
consolidation or dissolution, followed by the plan’s publication
and public hearings aimed at maximizing citizen participation.
o Consolidation of local government entities other than towns or villages may go into effect after the governing body or bodies give final approval to the plan; and
o Consolidation of towns and/or villages cannot go into effect without the approval of a majority of voters residing in each of the affected entities by referendum. Likewise, the dissolution of a village must be approved by a majority vote of village voters.
* A*/ /citizen-initiated process* is triggered by the filing of a
petition containing the signatures of at least 10 percent of the
electorate or 5,000 electors, whichever is less, in the local
government entity or entities to be consolidated or dissolved. For
small entities with 500 or fewer electors the petition must
contain the signatures of at least 20 percent of the electorate.
o The filing of the petition requires a referendum to be held in each of the government entities;
o If a majority of the electorate in each entity votes in favor of consolidation or dissolution, then the entity’s governing body or bodies must meet and develop a proposed written plan to implement the voters’ decision, followed by the plan’s publication and public hearings; and
o Consolidation or dissolution takes effect when the governing body or bodies approve a final version of the plan.
Though this legislation dramatically reforms existing law it does not mandate the reorganization of local entities in which a majority of citizens oppose this reorganization. It does, however, facilitate consolidations and dissolutions throughout the state. Galef also said, “Our current law makes even considering consolidation difficult. This act will give local government officials and/or the public the power to revamp the makeup of government and decide their own future.”
Taxpayers are currently subjected to an array of overlapping communities and special districts that cause expense, confusion and inefficiency. When this bill becomes law, there is a potential to decrease property taxes and hopefully create a more coherent system of government. NYS Attorney General Andrew Cuomo recently stated, “Should we reduce the size of government it could potentially cut taxes by anywhere from five to twenty-two percent.” Galef concluded, “I hope that this bill will indeed lead to such projected tax savings.”
****************************
Galef Awarded “Breath of Fresh Air Award” on Behalf of Continued Support of Tobacco Control
Assemblywoman Sandy Galef, a longtime supporter of tobacco control, received the “Breath of Fresh Air” award from the Tobacco Control Partners of the Lower Hudson Valley on the 28th of May. Additionally, Assemblywoman Galef was commended by Governor Paterson for her strong support for tobacco control. Galef has introduced and supported many bills focusing on tobacco control.
The goal of the Tobacco Control Partners of the Lower Hudson Valley is to create cleaner, healthier air for all New Yorkers as well as decrease the number of total smokers by one million by the year 2010. With her legislation, Assemblywoman Galef has taken an active role in reaching this goal. “Smoking has become a world wide health crisis. It kills on average one person every eight seconds as well as claiming the lives of over 25,000 New Yorkers each year. In addition, 2,500 deaths per year arise from second hand smoke-related complications,” said Galef “It is important that we stay focused and take the necessary steps to lower these striking statistics.” Most recently Galef has introduced Bill A722, which would increase the age of smoking tobacco from 18 years of age to 19, and Bill A1137 which would prohibit smoking in playground areas.
“The battle against tobacco is a difficult one, yet even so it is one worth fighting” said Galef, “simply for the fact that controlling tobacco use could potentially save thousands of New Yorker’s lives. I am very proud to have received this award from the Tobacco Control Partners of the Lower Hudson Valley and will continue to work towards a cleaner, healthier New York.”
