Westchester County Board Legislator Martin Rogowsky (D, I, WF – Harrison) was pleased to announce that the Village of Port Chester has received a $65000 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG). ...


...Angelo Place has inadequate storm water facilities in the road bed caused by development on the street. This project will include, but is not limited to, rock removal by trenching, installation of 15” piping, and concrete pavement.

“I’m glad that I was able to help Port Chester in obtaining this grant as this project will help minimize flooding in this area” said Rogowsky.

A great catch Fishermen keep an eye out for bluefish


By Michael Dinan




Roger Cortello, 73, a retired chef from southern France, stretched his legs from a cooler set on Steamboat Road's stone pier yesterday afternoon and peered toward the spot where his fishing line disappeared into the gray Long Island Sound.


'I enjoy fishing, and I have nothing to do after breakfast and lunch. So far I've caught one bluefish,' said Cortello, a Utah resident who comes to Greenwich for six weeks each summer to cook for a wealthy woman that lives here. 'Maybe I cook it for her. Maybe not. I keep a few. We have three people cooking for the one lady.......


Jesus Santilla, 15, of Port Chester, N.Y., a weekend fisherman at Greenwich's only public pier throughout the summer, said it's exciting to land a bluefish, but enjoyable regardless of the catch.


'I just like trying,' Santilla said. 'If I catch one it's good. If not, it's still fun.........

From The Journal News

Meaghan Francella was never in contention yesterday, but the Port Chester native increased the size of her check by finishing the Evian Masters with a 2-under-par round of 70.


She passed two dozen competitors and finished tied for 30th at 3-over 293.

Going green - I really never thought about saving our planet, till I became a little older. But when I did start thinking about it, and talking to my friends and family, I realized, that when I was younger, growing up in Port Chester, Westchester County, New York...spring would start, right around March 21, summers were long, falls would inch right up till Thanksgiving, and Christmas's would be white.


In addition, everything was so much greener, so much in fact, that all my high school buddies became landscapers......
