Supervisor's Update - Friday, August 6, 2021

Details

Last Updated: 06 August 2021 06 August 2021

Food Truck Fridays and the Summer Concert Series continue tonight with Drew Bordeaux and Friends at the Louis Engel Waterfront Park stage starting at 7pm.  The Food Trucks and Craft Beverage Corral will start serving earlier in the evening at 5pm.  As we have all seen in the news for the past few weeks COVID-19 continues to be a threat, so we are requiring all concert goers to wear masks when in crowded situations and walking around the park waiting for food or grabbing a refill at the Craft Beverage Corral.  Thanks to the Westchester County Department of Emergency Services we have a stock of 1,000 disposable masks to distribute to those who may have left their masks behind.  Thank you for your cooperation, we know this change in protocol will go a long way to keeping us all safe.  

 

The Food Truck line-up for tonight is looking very tasty with Cravin’ Jamaican, EMB Rice Balls, Bazodee Street Foods, Brothers Fish & Chips, Wrappers Delight, and La Bella Sophia Pizza Truck.  Sing Sing Kill Brewery and Peekskill Brewery will be pouring at the Craft Beverage Corral tonight. 

 

 

 

It is actually a two concert weekend, with the rescheduled performance of The Sleepy Hollow String Band scheduled for this Sunday, August 8 at 5pm and Food Truck Sundays starting at 4pm.  Cravin’ Jamaican, Bazodee Street Foods, EMB Rice Balls, Brothers Fish & Chips, and Wrappers Delight are slated for the food truck line-up, and Sing Sing Kill Brewery will be back with Soul Brewing Company at the Craft Beverage Corral.  Thank you to the Greater Ossining Chamber of Commerce, Mike and Miriam Risko, and Sing Sing Kill Brewery, with help from Recreation and Parks Superintendent, Bill Garrison and the Town Parks Department for organizing and supporting this summer’s events, it has certainly been a bit challenging navigating rainouts and the changing COVID-19 landscape, so thank you for your help.

 

 

 

Unfortunately, the Delta Variant has brought COVID-19 back into the headlines again.  Active cases in the Town of Ossining, including both Villages, are at 56 with 3 new cases as of August 4, according to the Westchester County dashboard.  Masks are now required to be worn by all visitors and employees, regardless of vaccination status, in Town and Village of Ossining buildings in public areas like lobbies, public facing offices, restrooms, and meeting rooms.  We strongly recommend that all residents follow this guidance and wear masks in public settings like grocery stores, restaurants when not eating, gyms, and more.  Many businesses have taken it upon themselves to require masks once again, so please be respectful of these changes and follow the guidance provided.  We now know that masks are critical to our defense against COVID, even among those who are fully vaccinated.  Westchester County and most of the surrounding counties are now categorized as areas of “substantial” or “high” transmission by the CDC, so these recommendations carry to those areas as well if you are travelling this weekend.

 

In better news, 71.2% of people in the 10562 zip code and 74.8% of people in the 10510 zip code have at least one dose of a vaccine, and 64.8% in 10562 and 68.6% in 10510 have received both doses.  On the national level, there has also been a huge uptick in people getting their first dose of the vaccine over the past two weeks.  These are promising numbers and evidence that people are responding to the call to get vaccinated.  Remember, all three approved vaccines in the United States are proven effective against infection, but most importantly very effective against severe illness, hospitalization, and death.  Vaccines have never been easier to get – most pharmacies are providing vaccines with no appointment necessary.  If you have questions about the vaccine, or would like to learn of pop-up vaccination clinics in Westchester, visit VaxUp Westchester as they are a great local resource for this information.  Please follow the facts and get vaccinated now! 

 

 

 

To that end, we are planning a pop-up vax event with OVAC at our 8/13 Food Truck Friday/Summer Concert (The Riskos are playing!) so bring your tired, your hungry, your unvaccinated friends and family with you!

 

Westchester County Department of Health is another great resource for vaccine information as they have set up a phone line for residents to speak one-on-one with nurses and doctors about the vaccines.  Call 914-995-5800 to be connected with a healthcare professional in either English or Spanish to ask questions.  Please get your facts from verified sources like healthcare providers, because we know and the data shows that these vaccines save lives with extremely, extremely low risk for serious negative side effects.  The County also has ongoing vaccine clinics at 20 S. Broadway in Yonkers and 134 Court Street in White Plains for COVID-19 vaccines and back-to-school vaccines for eligible young children.  The Yonkers clinic is open Mondays and Thursdays from 4pm to 7pm and the White Plains clinic is open Fridays from 10am to 1pm.  Call in advance for an appointment for back-to-school vaccines at 914-995-5800, but walk-ins for COVID-19 vaccines are welcome.

 

 

 

Public outreach for the Town of Ossining’s Comprehensive Plan “Sustainable Ossining” continues. As we near the release of a Draft Comprehensive Plan, we are seeking additional community feedback in an effort to highlight some of the larger policies and ideas to be discussed in the draft plan. The Plan will continue to incorporate the input from this summer engagement into the final guide for the initiatives and policies for the Town to consider for further planning and development as defined in the Plan. The Steering Committee members will be using posters as an easy way to engage people in this conversation and to make sure people stay informed as to when the draft Comp Plan is released.  So, if you see a Steering Committee member at an event this summer or stationed at a local business, with engagement posters, please take a moment to say hi and respond to the activities.  There will be boards around this week at Club Fit, Torview Swim and Tennis Club, UMAC Briarcliff, Fred’s Autobody, SBS Print and Ship, and the Ossining Public Library.  In the picture below below is Comprehensive Plan Steering Committee Member and Town Planning Board Chair Gareth Hougham at a recent Friday night concert getting lots of post-it note ideas from concert goers.  We are looking forward to sharing the final result with the community, so stay tuned!

 

 

The deadline for the Ossining dog census has been extended to August 15.  We ask that everyone complete the doggie census that was mailed to all residences to help us count the dogs we have in the Town and Villages of Ossining and Briarcliff Manor.  New York State Law requires all dogs over four months old to be licensed.  Be a good pet parent by registering your dog with the Briarcliff Clerk’s Office printable form or the Ossining Clerk’s Office online form. It protects them and you!

 

 

 

Please remember that the gas powered leaf blower ban remains in effect in the Unincorporated Town of Ossining through September 30.  Thank you to Green Ossining for preparing the summary below, but an easy way to remember the guidelines for gas powered leaf blowers is that they are generally allowed during the spring clean-up season (which typically wraps by the end of May) and fall leaf season (which kicks into high gear in October).  Thank you for your cooperation, and please share this information with your friends, neighbors, and landscapers.  We have made this available for download in both English and Spanish as JPG and PDF files.  Please help us spread the word, we also plan on mailing this directly to all landscapers who are based in Ossining for their reference.

 

 

 

 

With COVID-19 cases rising, I am sure many of us are considering “staycations” more local to home.  Westchester County Tourism has an excellent site highlighting fun things to do across the county this summer. Check out the Visit Westchester website to learn more.  And don’t forget about the TravelStorys app which is a self-guided audio tour and Historic Hudson River Towns has organized a tour of the Hudson Valley which includes Ossining and the surrounding communities.  A great, fun, safe, and affordable option for summer fun, right here in the Hudson Valley.

 

 

 

 

Assistance for those impacted by COVID-19 financial losses is still available.  Renters and landlords who are not sure where to turn can use a new website from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.  This website makes it easy to find rental assistance providers in our area.  Visit the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and be sure to share with others who may benefit from this assistance as well.

 

 

 

There are also many local organizations, like Neighbors Link, assisting with the ERAP program.  You can apply online, and please visit the Westchester County website or simply dial 211 for assistance.

 

 

 

Please also remember that New York State has funds available for New Yorkers who lost income during the COVID-19 pandemic and were ineligible for other federal relief programs due to lack of citizenship or other factors through the Excluded Workers Fund (EWF).  Visit the Department of Labor’s website to learn more and apply.

 

Don’t miss the last installments of the Village of Ossining’s Family Entertainment Series and Acoustic Series this week!  On Tuesday, August 10, there will be Family Zumba at Nelson Park, then on Wednesday, August 11, Two’s Company will wrap the Summer Acoustic Series at Market Square.

 

 

 

It’s National Farmers Market Week!  Down to Earth Farmers Markets, which organizes the Ossining market, are participating in the 2021 National Farmers Market Week (August 1 - August 7) and there are fun ways for children and adults to get involved.  Shop at the market this Saturday to get ready to celebrate!  Children ages 12 and under are encouraged to take coloring pages home (or download here!) from the market and color them, and return one completed artistic masterpiece to the following week’s market and be entered to win a set of fruit & vegetable-themed temporary tattoos.  Make sure to include your child’s name, age, and parent/guardian contact info on the back of the coloring sheet and return by the August 13 market.  For the adults, get ready for a cooking challenge! Buy your dish’s ingredients from vendors at the Ossining Farmers Market and post the finished product and recipe online. Tag Down to Earth Markets on Facebook or Instagram and be entered to win a Down to Earth t-shirt. I am IN!!! If you don’t have social media, you can also e-mail your picture and recipe to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. 

 

 

 

The Village of Ossining is seeking community input for their anticipated 2021 application to the NYS Downtown Revitalization Initiative. In its fifth year, the program will invest $200 million in up to 20 downtowns statewide. Participating communities will be nominated by the state’s ten Regional Economic Development Councils (REDCs) based on the downtown’s potential for transformation. Within the Mid-Hudson region, where the Village of Ossining is located, the Mid-Hudson REDC (MHREDC) will nominate either two downtowns to receive $10 million each or one downtown to receive an award of $20 million to develop a downtown strategic investment plan and implement key catalytic projects that advance the community’s vision for revitalization. This is an opportunity to think big and to realize a vision for a thriving downtown. In 2019, the Village of Ossining was a finalist and your input is needed to make Ossining a winner this year!  Join the public input session on Thursday, August 12 to learn more about this exciting opportunity and to provide your thoughts and ideas. The session in English will take place at 5:30pm and the session in Spanish will take place at 7:30pm.

 

 

 

Artists in the Time of COVID: Paralyzed and Prolific, which explores the effect of the pandemic on art and artists, continues showing at Bethany Arts Community thru August 11^th.  I had a chance to catch the opening reception and I strongly recommend you don’t miss this!

 

 

The Youth Event Planning Task Force started its weekly meetings. This is open to middle and high school students and is a great way to earn community service credit.  Register on Community Pass.

 

 

Save the date Saturday, August 14 from 9am to 12noon for a Gravestone Cleaning Workshop led by the OHCC at Dale cemetery.  This is another great opportunity for community service hours, and you get to learn about some really interesting stories from Ossining’s history to boot!

 

 

Bethany Arts Community will be featuring Performing Families with Inti Andino and Mariachi Sol Mixteco on Saturday, August 21 from 6:30pm to 8:30pm.   Celebrate the bonds of music and dance with two family ensembles as they explore the connections between kinship, tradition and the arts. Bring your lawn chair or picnic blanket! This event is co-presented by ArtsWestchester and Bethany Arts Community and sponsored by Con Edison, Etain and New York State Council on the Arts.

 

 

 

Westchester County is conducting a Construction Jobs Career Fair on Wednesday, August 25^th from 11-2pm at 123 Main Street in White Plains (the New York Power Authority Building).  Those attending should bring their resume and be prepared to interview on the spot.  Make sure to pre-register!

 

 

I hate to admit it with still a whole month left of summer, but I know many families are gearing up for back to school shopping. The New York State DEC recently sent out a very informative version of their “Living the Green Life” newsletter with some suggestions for making your back to school to do list a bit more environmentally friendly.  One suggestion is to consider “precycling” or shopping from your own store of school supplies.  I am sure we all have a pretty good stash of pens and pencils, crayons, notebooks, and more that can be re-used for the school year (hint: look under the couch!)  Read the full newsletter here, and consider signing up for the DEC newsletters yourself.  A fan favorite in the Supervisor’s Office is the weekly Hudson River Almanac – it’s a great newsletter featuring the beautiful natural world right in our backyard. 

 

Next week’s Town Board meeting will be a Legislative Session and we are keeping to our hybrid format with members of the public having the option of joining us virtually or in person.  Please note masks are required for all if you choose to join us in person.  On Tuesday, we will be taking action on a couple of important items, including setting a public hearing on a local law to opt-out of on-site consumption of marijuana in the Town of Ossining.  The public hearing will start on August 24, and we look forward to hearing from the community on this in the near future.

 

I hope everyone has a safe and enjoyable weekend!  It is going to be quite hot, with an air quality alert, so if you have asthma or other conditions that make you sensitive to high pollutant levels, please remember to exercise caution and maybe hang out in the AC instead of taking part in any strenuous activities outdoors.  Summer is back, after a bit of a cool week-enjoy!

Supervisor's Update - Friday, July 30, 2021

Details

Last Updated: 30 July 2021 30 July 2021

We have clear skies tonight!  Yes, it’s and another beautiful Friday evening in Ossining and therefore perfect for a concert at our incredible waterfront!  Base Camp takes the stage tonight rocking the R&B tunes at 7pm at Louis Engel Park for what is sure to be an amazing performance (you may recognize a couple of the band member names, including our own Kendall Buchanan)  Food Trucks and Craft Beverage Corral will start serving at 5pm, with Wanna Empanada, Westchester Burger, Brothers Fish & Chips, Rockland’s Kettle Corn, and Wrappers Delight returning for another week, and a new addition, Latusion Food Truck.  Get there early to avoid the lines! I can’t wait to try the loaded tostones!  Sing Sing Kill Brewery and Doc’s Hard Cider will be back in the Craft Beverage Corral, with a new guest pourer Brewery at the CIA as well.  Thank you to the Greater Ossining Chamber of Commerce, Mike and Miriam Risko, and Sing Sing Kill Brewery for helping to pull off what is sure to be another great evening.  Extra shout out to our phenomenal sound guy and weather man extraordinaire, Keith Heilmann for making the sound really work for everyone so the bands can let their talent shine through.

 

Since I know everyone has changing COVID-19 guidelines at top of mind, I would like to note that the new CDC guidance does not change mask requirements for outdoor settings, so there is no formal change to the COVID-19 protocols for the Summer Concert Series and Food Truck Fridays.  That being said, the new data released this week is certainly concerning, so everyone is encouraged to exercise caution, especially in crowded settings, and even more so if you are unvaccinated or someone in your household is unvaccinated (which means a lot of those kiddies!)  Please consider masking up and social distancing so we can all stay safe.  See you there!

 

 

 

This week, the CDC released new guidance regarding mask wearing for individuals who are fully vaccinated.  This is in response to new data that even those who are fully vaccinated can transmit the Delta variant.  The CDC recommends that in areas where community transmission is substantial or high, masks should be worn by people indoors, regardless of vaccination status.  I know it is disheartening to hear this news, but the COVID-19 pandemic has been a changing landscape since the start, so in order to stay safe, we need to be responsive to emerging data and exercise caution.  Westchester County is now listed as a location where community transmission is substantial, so masks should be worn by everyone in indoor settings, especially in crowded spaces or areas where the vaccination status of others is unknown.  Unfortunately, most of the United States is now classified as high or substantial transmission, so it is critically important that we follow this new guidance to slow the spread of COVID-19.  To learn more about the CDC’s guidance for vaccinated individuals, visit the CDC website.

 

 

Our best defense against COVID-19 is still to get vaccinated!  All three approved vaccines in the United States are proven effective against infection, but most importantly very effective against severe illness, hospitalization, and death.  Vaccines have never been easier to get – most pharmacies are providing vaccines with no appointment necessary.  If you have questions about the vaccine, or would like to learn of pop-up vaccination clinics in Westchester, visit VaxUp Westchester as they are a great local resource for this information.  Please follow the facts and get vaccinated now!  Many private and public employers, including the State and City of New York, Cities of New Rochelle and Yonkers, and more, are now requiring their employees to get vaccinated.  We are also exploring the possibility of mandating vaccines, or weekly testing, for Town of Ossining employees but will still need to work out the details with our unions. 

 

 

 

The resurfacing of the Ryder Tennis Courts was completed this week, thanks to hard working Parks crew.  The upper courts are now resurfaced – no more cracks! – repainted and lined for tennis and pickle ball.  Here are the courts when they were finished being resurfaced and with lines painted.  We hope to have the tennis nets up next week, and the pickle ball nets for the court on the left are on order. We also submitted a NYS Consolidated Funding grant Application this week to the New York State Office of Parks for planning for Ryder Park, specifically to mitigate the drainage issues that impact many of the recreational amenities at the park, like the lower tennis courts that now serve as a basketball court and batting cage.  We are hopeful this funding will help us plan for more exciting improvements like the upper tennis court rehab and make Ryder Park the best park around!

 

 

Yesterday, the Ossining Community Equity Task Force held a Lunch and Learn which consisted of a presentation and discussion with Open Door Family Medical Center and Home Run Against Drugs about the services provided by these two organizations, how the pandemic illuminated gaps in access, and how they have stepped up to address those gaps.  It was a very interesting discussion, and I encourage you to view the discussion, even if you were not able to join us in real time.  The recording is posted to the Community Equity Task Force Facebook page and the Town’s YouTube page.  The Equity Task Force also rereleased its survey to gauge community opinion on issues of equity in our community. Last year, this survey was distributed as the second COVID-19 spike began. Residents who completed the 2020 survey are encouraged to update the Task Force by completing it again in 2021. Take the survey here.

 

 

 

The Ossining Dog Census deadline is looming!  We ask that everyone complete the doggie census that was mailed to all residences to help us count the dogs we have in the Town and Villages of Ossining and Briarcliff Manor, before the August 1 deadline.  New York State Law requires all dogs over four months old to be licensed.  Be a good pet parent by registering your dog with the Briarcliff Clerk’s Office printable form or the Ossining Clerk’s Office online form. It protects them and you!

 

 

Children entering school have other immunizations they need to receive besides the COVID-19 vaccine. The Westchester County Health Department will be offering back-to-school immunizations throughout the summer to students who qualify at the County Dept. of Health Clinics in White Plains (134 Court Street) and Yonkers (20 S. Broadway, 2^nd Floor).  The Yonkers location has appointments Mondays and Thursdays starting Monday, July 26 and ending Thursday, August 30 from 4pm to 7pm. The dates for the White Plains clinic can be found on the flyer below.  You can call the Health Department at (914) 995-5800 to find out if you qualify for an appointment. COVID-19 vaccines are also available at these clinics, no appointment is necessary.

 

 

Assistance for those impacted by COVID-19 financial losses is still available.  Renters and landlords who are not sure where to turn can use a new website from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.  This website makes it easy to find rental assistance providers in our area.  Visit the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and be sure to share with others who may benefit from this assistance as well.

 

 

 

 

Construction of an 873 kW community solar system is still underway at the parking lot of Maryknoll Fathers and Brothers. This system is the first canopy and community solar installation in Ossining and will provide Ossining residents access to clean renewable energy from the sun. It has been so exciting to see this system get installed! Ossining residents and organizations are encouraged to sign up for this community solar program and “go solar” while receiving a 10 percent discount on their electricity bills. The six parking lot solar canopies are being built by developer, financier and owner-operator, Ecogy Energy.  Visit the PowerMarket website to participate.

 

 

 

Don’t forget about the many opportunities to catch local performers in Ossining and Briarcliff this summer.  On Tuesdays in July, the Ossining Recreation Department offers family-friendly entertainment at 7pm in a Village park.

 

 

The Village of Ossining’s Summer Acoustic Music Series continues with performances at Market Square on Wednesday evenings at 7pm.  

 

 

The Briarcliff Manor Chamber of Commerce Summer Concert Series wraps for the summer this Sunday, August 1 with a performance by Your Welcome at 7pm.

 

 

 

It’s National Farmers Market Week!  Down to Earth Farmers Markets, which organizes the Ossining market, are participating in the 2021 National Farmers Market Week (August 1 - August 7) and there are fun ways for children and adults to get involved.  Shop at the market this Saturday to get ready to celebrate!  Children ages 12 and under are encouraged to take coloring pages home (or download here!) from the market and color them, and return one completed artistic masterpiece to the following week’s market and be entered to win a set of fruit & vegetable-themed temporary tattoos.  Make sure to include your child’s name, age, and parent/guardian contact info on the back of the coloring sheet and return by the August 13 market.  For the adults, get ready for a cooking challenge!  (I mean, I like to color too…) Buy your dish’s ingredients from vendors at the Ossining Farmers Market and post the finished product and recipe online. Tag Down to Earth Markets on Facebook or Instagram and be entered to win a Down to Earth t-shirt. I am IN!!! If you don’t have social media, you can also e-mail your picture and recipe to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. 

 

 

 

 

Tomorrow, Saturday, July 31, head over to Nelson Park from 11am to 4pm for a day of family fun organized by ENU Builds.  This is a free event for all ages, with lots of fun activities ranging from balloon toss and tug-of-war, to yoga and Zumba.  At our last Board meeting, I challenged my Board colleagues to a round of Elder Frisbee, let’s see who will win!  Check out the comprehensive schedule below the poster to plan out your day.  Thank you to Jermain Smith, Tamarah Bridgewater, and the whole team at ENU Builds and its partner organizations for putting together a great day in the park for our community.

 

 

 

Also on Saturday, July 31, New York State Senator Elijah Reichlin-Melnick is hosting a Heritage and History Awards Celebration.  Ossining’s very own Joyce Sharrock Cole will be receiving a much deserved recognition for her work preserving Ossining’s diverse history – congratulations Joyce!

 

 

The last installment of the Friends of Hilltop Hanover Farm & Environmental Center outdoor film series is tomorrow, Saturday, July 31. Rain dates will be the day after the originally scheduled date. Register here for tickets and book now as the guest count is limited. 

 

 

On Saturday, July 31 and Sunday, August 1, Westchester Collaborative Theater (WCT) returns to live, in-person performances with an outdoor production of Parking Lot Plays, six short new works from WCT’s play development program.  Each site-specific play integrates the environment into its story as the characters navigate the terrain of the parking lot while they tell their tales.  I have the inside scoop on one of them, so from that alone, I can say it promises to be excellent. Grab your tickets now! Don’t forget to bring your own lawn chair as well!

 

 

Next Wednesday, August 4, join the Jug Tavern for Sparta Speaks 2021 at 7:30pm with a virtual presentation by art historian Suzanne Altman about Frederic Edwin Church, a prominent painter of the Hudson River School.  Zoom link in the flyer below!

 

Artists in the Time of COVID: Paralyzed and Prolific, which explores the effect of the pandemic on art and artists, is showing at Bethany Arts Community until August 11^th.  I had a chance to catch the opening reception last Friday, and it was an amazing – don’t miss this!

 

 

 

The Youth Event Planning Task Force started its weekly meetings this week.  This is open to middle and high school students and is a great way to earn community service credit.  Register on Community Pass.

 

 

For all the budding Olympians out there, the Spartans swim team has registration open.  Register for the Spartans team and many more recreation programs on Community Pass.  I hope we’ll be cheering on an Ossining athlete at the 2024 Paris games!

 

 

There is also Junior Lifeguard Training taking place at the Ossining Community Center in August.  There was a lifeguard shortage in the County this year, so this is a great way to prep for a summer job in the future.  Register on Community Pass.

 

 

 

Next week’s Town Board meeting will be a Work Session and we are keeping to our hybrid format with members of the public having the option of joining us virtually or in person.  On Tuesday, we will be continuing our discussion on the Marijuana Taxation and Regulation Act, and whether or not the Town should consider opting-out of allowing marijuana dispensaries or on-site consumption lounges.  We look forward to continuing this discussion, and hopefully coming to a decision that will best serve the Ossining community.  If the Town Board does decide to opt-out of either use, there will be a Local Law adoption process involving a public hearing, so there will be additional opportunity for public comment likely within the next few weeks.

 

I hope everyone has a great weekend.  Please stay safe, get vaccinated if you are not already, or encourage a friend, family member, or neighbor to get the shot – our lives and our livelihoods truly depend on it!
