Letters To Journal News About The Death At Playland Park Dominated The Opinion Page
Laurino Rubino Of Port Chester Writes....
Owner of ride put safety first
........It is unfortunate that these incidents have occurred. I do not think that any of these rides or games owned and operated by S&L Amusements should be shut down. These rides and games have been a part of Playland history for many, many years.
***********
William R. Lacerenza of New Rochelle writes...
Criticism of Playland is undeserved
First, you have to look at the overall picture. Playland, which opened in 1928, did not have the first fatal incident occur at it until 1988......
......The county has also come under fire in regards to Playland because it does not turn a profit and even some people are going as far to say it should be sold.

Port Chester wrongly took businessman's land, judge rules
LoHud.com brings us the ultimate nightmare situation: the eminent domain case is won - after the buildings in question have been knocked down, paved over, and made into parking lots.
Brody's fight centered on whether the village had properly informed him of its intent to seize his properties. The village announced its intention in a legal ad in The Journal News in July 1999, following a public hearing on the matter. Brody then had 30 days to challenge the village's "determination and findings" regarding the project.
Brody said he didn't find out until 2000 that the village was going to seize his properties. By that time, his 30-day window had long since expired and he no longer had the right to challenge the seizure.
Largely because of Brody's case, New York state changed its eminent domain law in 2004 to require municipalities to notify property owners by certified mail or personal delivery of decisions to seize their land.
From The Blog: No Land Grab
Here is the Journal News article
************
More On The Brody Decision
PORT CHESTER—After seven years of litigation, a federal trial judge confirmed last week what Bill Brody has known all along—the government must provide citizens with notice before their right to challenge eminent domain expires. Further, the judge ruled, the Village of Port Chester violated Brody’s rights by failing to do so.
...........“This common-sense ruling is long-overdue: now, there is no question that Port Chester failed to provide Bill Brody with the basic notice guaranteed by the Constitution,” said IJ Staff Attorney Robert McNamara. “For property owners nationwide, this ruling means that there is still some teeth to constitutional protections for their homes and small businesses.
“Bill Brody has waged a heroic fight against eminent domain abuse, and it is fitting that his constitutional rights have finally been vindicated,” said Chip Mellor, IJ president and general counsel. “His never-say-die determination is a shining example for home and small business owners across the country.”

Twice a week, Tom Rogers gets on a plane to commute between his home in Harrison, N.Y., and his job in Silicon Valley.As president and chief executive officer of TiVo — the company that made digital video recorders popular — Rogers needs to be in California four days a week. But when he took the job in 2005, he made no secret of his plans to keep his home base in New York.

Review of Hostaria Mazzei in Port Chester
Here's how the meal went
"Appetizer"(not really an appetizer, but bread and butter) - Fantastic. The bread was hot and fresh; the breadsticks were also fresh and made with rosemary. Butter was clearly hand made, and was delicious. A+ for the bread and butter.
Entree - I got the veal. It was OK. Not the best meal I've ever had, but not the worst. I'd give this a B+.
Desert - I got a chocolate cake. It was horrendous. It tasted like it had just been defrosted from some frozen desert in the supermarket.
My brother got the sorbet. This was the worst part of the meal. It was LTIERALLY from Costco. They just fluffed up the top and made it wavy. What kind of restaurant serves something DIRECTLY from Costco? Seriously, this is a new low for restaurants.
Overall, I probably wouldn't go back, as the desert aspect put me off so much. The fact that a restaurant would even think of using prepared foods from costco is just frightening.

THE WINNER IS?
UNKNOWN LEE TAKES WORLD MATCH PLAY
The tournament directors at the HSBC Women's World Match Play Championship invited the "Who's Who" of women's golf.
Instead, they wound up with the "Who? Who?" of the sport.
With nine of the top 10 players being knocked out before the third round, yesterday's final featured 22nd-seeded Seon Hwa Lee and No. 12 Ai Miyazato - not exactly household names.
Lee, who despite lacking star power, is quickly becoming one of the top players on the tour, captured her second LPGA title yesterday, beating Miyazato, 2 and 1.
The South Korean Lee is one of the best young players in the world, as is the Japanese Miyazato, Though they are celebrities in their native countries, that is not the case here. It was evidenced by the paltry amount of people who actually attended the finale at Wykagyl Country Club in New Rochelle.
Such was the state of the tournament and to a greater extent, the LPGA itself, which has a handful of players who can draw a crowd. And virtually all of those players were gone by the end of the second round.
Annika Sorenstam, Lorena Ochoa, Paula Creamer and Natalie Gulbis were gone by Friday and Michelle Wie turned down an exemption to play in the tournament, leaving Port Chester's Meaghan Francella to keep people interested. When her run ended after the quarterfinals on Saturday, so did much interest in the event.......

Bruno "Makes Out Like A Bandit" Gioffree Wins Again
Single Family Homeowners Are Angry That Cicatelli's One Vote Defeated A Proposal That Could Have Given Our EMT's, Firefighters, Police Officers, Teachers And Village Employees Affordable Housing In Developments Comming To Downtown Port Chester.
At the last Port Chester Board of Trustees failed mayorial canidate Dominick Cicatelli rejected a resolution to add the downtown area to a 2004 law that requires affordable housing in buildings that have more than 10 units.
Mayor Pilla, Trustee Sorenson and Trustee Brakewood have long been pushing to expand the requirement to include downtown. But Cicateli's single dissenting vote denied the EMT's firefighters, police officers teachers and village employees the chance at afforable homes, because only four of five trustees were present; four votes were needed for passage.
Trustee John Crane left the meeting, before the vote that would have helped out Port Chester's first responders and teachers.
The 2004 law requires all new developments to have 10 percent of their units set aside for moderate-income families and is intended to benefit first responders and other lower-income professionals.
The law applies to individuals and families that make up to 80 percent of the county's median income level, or $77,200 for a family of four.
All Of Tho$e Donation$ To Chicateli'$ Campgain
In April of 2006 Dominick Cicatelli voted to let Bruno "Makes Out Like A Bandit" Giofree and FMB realty to transfer multiple residential lots to the Downtown C-2 zone, thus cheating first responders like firefighters out of 10 affordable homes.
Bruno and FMB reaped a benefit worth millions and the firefighters lost a chance at 10 Affordable homes.
Trustee Domenick Cicatelli, who cast the dissenting vote, made some stupid remarks that really meant that he felt it was unfair give first responders, teachers and village employees an affordable home in one of Bruno Giofree's developments, such as The Mariner.
After Dominick Cicateli stabed the first responders, teachers and village employers in the back he said he would support the requirement if it did not affect The Mariner.
The developer of The Mariner, FMB Real Estate Services of Harrison, donated $500 to Cicatelli's 2007 mayoral bid, but the village back stabber Dominick Cicatelli said that did not influence his vote.
Nor did all the money that Bruno "Makes Out Like A Bandit Giofree influence the back stabers one vote that crushed affordable housing for his fellow firefighters.
But most firefighters say Dominick Cicatelli is not a real Firefighter that put his life on the line, These firefighters say the backstabber Cicatelli is a member of the "Fork and Knife" Brigade.
Yes, Dom is big on going to funtions, while being unable to funtion as a real firefighter.
Sorensen Is So Right
Trustee Robert Sorensen, chairman of the village's affordable housing committee, summed up the whole disgusting situation by saying.
"I thought that the interests of the developer came before the interests of the village," Sorensen said.
Trustee Sorensen does not oppose luxury housing, but rightly argues that the village needs to provide for the family's of first responders and teachers.
Oppps....
The resolution would have succeeded if the vote had occurred before Trustee John Crane left the meeting early. The Week Before Crane said he had intended to vote in favor of the emergency responders getting affordable housing.
I guess he forgot about the EMT's, Firefighters and Police Officers. Maybe fellow lawyer Bruno "Makes Out Like A Bandit" Giofree gave Crane a call.
Hopefully, the village can move forward with affordable housing for first responders in the downtown as part of our master plan,
Let's just hope that Bruno "Makes Out Like A Bandit" Giofree and his development buddies don't propose another downtown developement that will cheat the first responders, teachers and village employees in the meantime.
Thanks To Dom......
