Patrick Williams resigns,pleads guilty to fraud

Activists denounce planto widen parkways

by Jason GersNassau County Legislator Patrick

Williams (D - district 1) resigned hisposition last week,and pled guilty thenext day in federalcourt to fraudulentlyinflating documents toobtain mortgages for10 HUD-insuredloans as a mortgageloan originator atAmerifirst MortgageCorporation ofHempstead, and mak-ing false statements toa federally-insuredbank regarding anl l t h loan. Accordingto the indictment, thecrimes were committed between March,1997, and December, 1999, before'histerm as a legislator.

The indictment charges that in order toshow the level of income necessary toqualify for the clients' loans, Mr.Williams arranged for and caused theclients to obtain fabricated and inflatedtax returns W-2 forms and pay stubs.

Patrick Williams

The indicfment also charges that the for-mer legislator enlisted a tax preparer anda real estate broker to create the docu-ments.

U.S. sentencing guide-lines suggest that Mr.Williams should receivebetween six and 12 monthsimprisonment; the lowesthe could receive would beprobation and six monthsof home confinement. Hehas already agreed to pay$51,000 in restitution, theamount of commissions hemade on the 11 fraudulentloans.

Although the countylegislature is now split 9-9along party lines, neitherCounty Executive Tom

Suozzi nor Democratic county legislatorDave" Denenberg expressed a great dealof anxiety about a possible deadlock incounty government. Mr. Denenbergdescribed'tiis colleague's last bill and abill of his own, regarding sportsmanship,as the most prominent pieces of legisla-tion currently on the agenda.

by Laura SchoferAugust and Grace Horvath were among

about 60 local residents who came toMerrick's Sacred Heart auditorium lastThursday evening to hear about the LongIsland Transportation Plan. The couplelive on Shore Drive and wanted to know iftheir house could be torn down. "Theparkway is right in our backyard. Whatwill happen to us?" asked Mr. Horvath.

This was the question on everyone'smind. What will happen to the people andour communities when the New YorkState Department of Transportation (DOT)

• expands Southern State andMeadowbrook Parkways in order to put inan HOV lane for buses called Rapid

i Commuter Vehicles (RCVs) ?"They will take down our trees and our

old bridges, straighten our roads and putup those sound barriers," said VickiRosenberg, a member of the Joint Councilfor the South Shore Civics Association.

"But your houses are safe, so far," addedLisa Tyson, Director of the Long Island

: Progressive Coalition and a Bellmore res-ident, "although it will have a tremendousimpact on your home in other ways."Some of those impacts may include noise,

water and air pollution as well as problemsthat might cause cracks in a home's foun-dation when the pile-drivers start construe- •tion. "And let's riot forget about rodentia.Where will all those animals go?" askedMs Rosenberg.

The Long Island Transportation Plan2000 was designed to provide relief fromtraffic congestion. The study claims jofocus on a transportation plan that buildsupon the existing roadways and publictransportation (more buses and plannedLIRR system expansion, a network ofbicycle paths) and concludes that we aregoing to have to move more people infewer cars. But local activists, like RichardSchary of Bellmore, sees the plan as asmoke screen for a road expansion planthat will add HOV lanes to the SouthernState and Meadowbrook Parkways. TheRCVs- (buses) will have the look of amonorail and would operate in HOV lanesthat admit carpools with special on and offramps on the parkways.

It would' put 1,270 RCVs on the roads,50 new RCV routes, 38 new miles of HOVlanes (in addition to the ones on the LIE)and 148 miles of road widening.

The community newspaper - the glue that. . helps hold a community together,and the spur that helps keep it moving forward.

Like mother, like daughter"Watch Sandy Feuerstein," the late State Senator Norman

Levy used to say of his Merrick neighbor, "she will go far."And already in j99(Xthis newspaper called her "a womanwho has a hand in making tomorrow's history," describinghow she took part as a District Court judge in the opening ofthe court's new building, how she helped write the history oflaw in Nassau County 'as editor of the Nassau Lawyer, andhow she'served as president of the Nassau County Women'sBar Association. " |

Now a New York State Supreme Court Justice, she wasrecently nominated by President George W. Bush to jthe fed-eral bench for the Eastern District of New York. If confirmedby the U.S. Senatej she will join her mother, Annette Elstein,a U.S. immigration judge, in federal service. Only two levelsbelow the U.S. Supreme Court, she will deal with such casesas disputes between businesses located in different stateswhere state jurisdiction has not been established, murderscommitted on federal property, and other such matters in fed-eral jurisdiction. '

.Fortunately, she has wide experience in both'criminal andcivil law. In 1996, Nassau County Court Monitors of theSupreme Court described her as "efficient," "in control ofproceedings," "alert," "patient" and "concerned." They wereimpressed with her manner of serving the public. One wrote,"If all the judges were like Sandra Feuerstein there wouldn'tbe so many delays, and court time would not be wasted."

The Fund For Modern Courts, in a 1999-2000 evaluationof Associate Justice Feuerstein on her work in the AppellateDivision of the State Supreme Court, found "she has a pleas-ant personality and at the same time is a consummate profes- .sional." One commentator rated her "one of the top judges inNassau." Her intelligence, work ethic, knowledge, prepara-tion, and research were lauded. One lawyer noted "there wasan erudite discourse of the law in the jury charge." Accordingto the report, she has a reputation for working hard to getcases settled before they go to trial, as well as for being even-handed and fair.

Justice Feuerstein's knowledge can be measured in herdecisions, articles in journals and lectures to law students,professional and lay groups. Her integrity can be attested toby the fact that she was chosen to serve oh the State's JudicialEthics Advisory Board, and her heart can be seen in heractions, for example, serving as legal counsel to the MerrickSenior Center when it was founded, and helping establish asupervised visitation center for Nassau County Family Courtwhere non-custodial parents could safely meet with and fillthe needs of their children.. One of her favorite stories is of a young man who, after she ,

sentenced him in a case, sent her a card featuring Dorothy of"The Wizard of Oz" "because you believed in me."

Arid her many friends in Nassau County believe in JusticeSandra Feuerstein, former teacher, wife to local attorney AlFeuerstein, mother to Bethesda attorney Adam Feuersteinand Seth Feuerstein now completing his residency in foren-sic psychiatry at Yale, grandmother to Arielle and Jacob, androle model to countless! others.

THANKS On Sunday, August 4,from noon till 4 p.m. the BaldwinChamber of Commerce will be holdingits annual community picnic at BaldwinPark. It will be a time of free food andfun for everyone with special events,music, and games for children. All arewelcome.

The purpose of the event is two-fold.Chamber members want to thank thecommunity for patronizing their busi-nesses. Business people today are wellaware that consumers can go anywherefor a product or service and Baldwin'sChamber members are thankful that somany residents choose Baldwin's pro-fessionals, restaurants, and retail storesfor their goods and services.,.

In an unincorporated area such - asBaldwin, however, the Chamber serves

more functions than simply that of fos-tering business for its members. TheChamber is one of the prime organiza-tions which recognizes the importanceof encouraging community pride andcohesiveness. The annual picnic helps todo that.

In many respects, the picnic shouldalso serve as an opportunity for the com-munity to thank the businesses whichjoin the Chamber. These are the peoplewho year in and year out are asked tosupport the many other activities intown.

These are the people who supportyouth sports leagues and who donategoods and services to all sorts of com-munity events. These are the people wholooked around the town and decided toexpand their mission to include manyquality of life issues.

It was a Chamber of Commerce com-

mittee, chaired by Sairi landiorio ofFrank Electric, who worked wi thSanitary District Number Two to sharethe costs of the new "classy cans"around town. The names you see onthose cans are the sponsors and the peo-ple who solicited those sponsors werebusy Chamber members.

It was the 'Chamber who shared costswith the Town of Hempstead for_a pro-fessional survey of the community and itwas the information in that surveywhich was used by the BusinessImprovement Committee of theChamber to encourage the Town ofHempstead to move forward with thefirst phase of the downtown facadeimprovement-project. Be assured theChamber continues to lobby for addi-tional phases.

It is Chamber members who attendthe Council of Chambers of Commerce

meetings to network w i t h otherChambers and with important officialsof the county and town to lobby forBaldwin's needs.

" At the August 4 picnic, people whomyou usually see in a professional sellingwill be cooking hamburgers and frank-furters, pouring soda, and helping at var-ious other tables and events. This wouldbe the time to thank them for what theydo for Baldwin.

Chamber members are the people whorecognize that their business extendsbeyond their own front door and knowthat what's good for Baldwin's residentsis also good for them.

When you have a choice, palroni/ethose Chamber members who give backto the communi ty and urge other busi-nesses which reap the benefit of theChamber's efforts to join.

A Freeport resident of 51 years,Arnold and his wife, Belle, have heen onthe hoard of the Freeport ConcertAssociation for 50 years, and have heenrenowned for b r ing ing some of thefinest talent in the world to Long Islandand producing the Island's finest concertseries. His love of music extended to hiscreative talents as a violinmaker, and heshared his love of art as a fine'painter,adorning their residence with his vastcollection of paint ings based on the cou-ple's world travels.

A legacy of values was created fromhis associations asPresident of the LongIsland Humanist Society,President of the New YorkEthica l Cul tu re Societyand President of theAmerican Ethical Union.He was a valuable boardmember of OperationPRIDE and was tremen-dously active in politics inthe Democratic move-ment. He was also a dedi-cated friend of theFreeport MemorialLibrary, and in collabora-t ion w i t h Dr. VincentPal ladino, restored pic-tures and enhanced statu-aries which beautify v thelibrary today.

Mr. Sylvester was bornin New York and startedhis early art studies al Prattand The. Art Student 'sLeague. Applying his artis-tic talents to a practicalworld, he entered the University ofVirginia as an architectural student.However, his curiosity and love of othercul tures led him to a B.A. inArchaeology. He then went on toColumbia University, where he receivedhis Master's degree in Egyptology andshortly after was given'a position at theMetropolitan Museum of Art.

Enchanted by a a beautiful 18-yearold violinist and doctoral candidate inPsychology al Columbia University, hewas faced with a decision of participat-

Together they created ahome with great appreciation for thearts, the love of knowledge and philan-thropy. They had two children, Robertand Vicki, who became accomplishedmusicians.

His creative juices led Arnold into theworld of marketing and advertising,where he held the .position of V.P. ofmarketing for Pepsi Cola, famous for hisinnovative free outdoor park concert •series with Paul Robeson. His career fol- •lowed as V.P. of marketing with A&P,where he was known for his supermar-ket promotion of Rodgers &

He will be dearly missed by his fami-

ly, friends and community. However, hisincredible spirit will always prevail.

He is survived by his wife, Belle, son,Robert, daughter, Vicki, daughter-in-lawJane, and grandsons Jonas Sylvester andNicholas"Granat.

The Boy Friend' delights The Stage•'.. by Suzanne Handley

The players.at The Stage in Merrickperformed "The Boy Friend" to apacked theatre on Sunday. The show

.was-a charming and goofy spoof of a1920s musical comedy. "It is so broadand big. a modern audience would getdie idea that it is a spoof," said JoanEdward; a performer and director in thecompany.

The costumes; music and directionwere impeccable. Numerous perfor-mances were deserving of special men-tion such as Alyssa Malgieri who playedMaisie.Als.'.Malgicri played the originalAnnie for The Stage, which is nowentering its. IOlh season, and accordinglo co-star Joan Edward, "1 really think,she's going to end up on Broadway,

she's a tremendous performer."Maisie's 'Boy Friend,' Bobby,"played byJames Cavolo, was also excellently castby Tony Georgan, owner of The Stage

' and director of this production. The twoyoung performers have remarkablepresence and wonderful chemistry onstage.

The story is about the romancebetween the young and naive Polly aridTony, who fall in love. Although they trylo evoke sympathy for tHeir plight asrich young Brits living on the FrenchRiviera, in the end all is neatly resolved.For comic relief, (as if the show neededany), Joan and Ian Edward play a hilari-ous Lord and Lady Brockhurst.

"The Boy Friend" will run throughAugust 4. For tickets and information,call The Stage at 868-6400.

"Life on the Pond" at Giblyn Free breast cancer screeningWhen parents and students at Leo F.

Giblyn School came to see CarlaSasso's second grade class performtheir play enti t led "Life on the Pond."they knew they would be entertained,but they didn' t realize that they wouldend up learning all about insects,habitats and life cycles.

These young actors dressed as bum-blebees, birds, beavers, bears andbunnies to show everyone how insects

find food, how a caterpillar turns intoa butterfly and how a hermit crabpicks a home. Students made theirown costumes and sets, and evenwrote their own lyrics to the songsthey sang.

The show is one of many events atGiblyn desgined to make learning real- to help students connect what theylearn in the classroom to real worldexperiences.

IN A SCENE FROM "LIFE ON THE POND," some friendly animals help a hermitcrab pick a new home. Front, from left, are bunny Kemi Yusuff and crab AlexUddin. In rear are bear Kevin Jewels, beaver Tarquan Johnson, bees JordonHammond and Leslie Guzman and blue jay Jacquiline Aguilar.

Activists tell residents LITP is no good for the communityfrom page 1

The Southern Stale j Parkway portionwill cost $155 million and all our bridgeswil l have to come down and he rebuilthigher and wider. The entire programwill cost $5 billion.

How did (his plan come into existence?Lisa Tyson told residents that the planbegan "about 4 years ago when theDepartment of Transportation had a goodidea to plan-for long-term traffic. Theylook out ads in the Pe'nnysaver lookingfor citi/.en involvement. I becameinvolved and we met for six months. Ican honestly say that not one citizencame in and asked for more HOV lanes.Everyone talked about mass transit, suchas buses and light rail or railroad."

Richard Schary was another of thoseprivate citi/cns involved with LITP. Hesat on the Zoning, Land:Use and FundingCommittee. "The idea was lo get awayfrom auto transportation," he told resi-denls.

The majority of the members whomade up this plan include Long Island'sstate legislators, representatives fromLong Island's counties, towns, cities andvillages, members of the business com-munity, academic institutions, transporta-tion experts and six private cili/.ens." Thecili/.ens were added because I com-plained," said Ms. Tyson. "There wererepresentatives4 from AAA, Long IslandAssociation, New York Stale MotorTruck Association, but no one from thehandicapped or bicyclists, or bus riders."

And so local aclivisls want residents locall or write Governor George Pataki orNassau County Executive ThomasSu'ozzi and ask them lo re-think this^plan."We're nol saying Ihey should scrap theplan but re- think it," said VickiRosenberg. "If I can see the cracks why

can't they?"Activists want to see a plan that

includes more mass transit, including alight rail system and more developmentof the Long Island Rail Road as well asthe development of bike ways and walk-ways. Mr. Schary also spoke about per-manent parks along our parkways.

Keith Mainheart told the other resi-dents that "I am one of the hundreds ofthousand ignored by the DOT. I use pub-lic transportation and it seems as if they[DOT] have forgotten us."

"When they straighten out the roads,people will go faster. I don't want to feell ike I'm a pinball in a machine," saidanother resident.

Mark Finkel complained that the planoffered nothing for "north-south trans-portation. "I'm handicapped and I don'tdrive. What about people like me?"

Michael Cromwell doesn't driveeither. "I take my bicycle from my homein Westbury to my jobjn Uniondale. It'sa great way to travel but there are timeswhen I'm scared to death. I have closecalls everyday. I think we need morebicycle lanes."

Another resident thought it would be agood idea lo offer "free transportationdowntown. That's what they do inSeattle. Why not make it convenient forpeople to take the buses, instead of mak-ing someone wait 45 minutes for a bus,

.without any kind of shelter," he said."And you say it's $5 billion for this plan.What about cost overruns? We havehacks in Albany."

Vincent Corrado, a consultant whoworks for the DOT, defended the plan."Take a look at our website. It is a com-prehensive plan."

"I just want to know if you are plan-ning to take down the trees on Southern

State Parkway, widen the roads and putup sound walls," asked one woman.

"Yes," said Mr. Corrado," but it's stilla good plan."

Assemblyman Dave McDonough sup-ports the idea of re-thinking this plan. "Ifyou want a stake in the decision, youmust get involved. Write or call. I'm "rethinking this. Senator Fuschillo and Iare exploring other options. We're tryingto figure out how to get people down-town and we're talking about a bus.We're all concerned about air pollution.We shouldn't scratch the plan but rethink

it." . 'Vicki Rosenberg said that it was possi-

ble for citizens to fight city hall. "I don'twant my ghost to hear the cries of thechildren who are asking why we didn'tstop this. What are we leaving for ourchildren? Do we really want to tear downparadise to put up a parking lot?"

A special election will be held onSeptember" 10 to fill the vacant seat.According to Mr. Suo/.zi, theDemocrats are going to run KevanAbrahams, of Freeporl.

Tony Sanlino, Nassau RepublicanSpokesman, said the G.O.P. has not yetchosen a candidate.

The resignation came as no great sur-prise to either County Executive Suoz/.ior Dave Denenberg. Mr. Suo/./,i said, "Iheard a little in advance." LegislatorDenenhcrg told The Leader, "I expectedthat he could |resign)," although "I sortoC expected Patrick to wait unt i l theAugust 5 | legislative) meeting."Commenting on his character, Mr.Denenberg described Patrick Williamsas "very intelligent. He conducted him-self in a soft-spoken and dignified man-ner. He was passionate about issues that

mallcrcd to him."According Mr. Denenberg, Patrick

Williams introduced his last bill to theLegislature the day before his resigna-tion. The hil l , which passed committeebut has not faced the whole Legislature,would give greater consideration to

minority- and women-owned businesses

(MBAs) for county contracts. Similar tofederal and state laws on the subject,Mr. Denenberg said the law was "not a

quota." The Legislature will consider

the bill on August 5.The former legislator's case was

heard before District Judge .Joanna

Seybert at the U.S. Courthouse in

Central Islip, and is being prosecuted by

Assistant U.S. Attorney Eric Tirschwell.

U.S. Attorney Alan Vinegrad stated that

"by conspiring to obtain government

benefits through deceit and fabrications,

Patrick Williams put millions of taxpay-er dollars at risk and potentially

deprived other honest citizens of the

opportunity to benefit from the impor-tant government program."

The loans were for homes in Freeport,

Baldwin, Brookville, the Bronx (2),

Manhattan, Uniondale, Queens,

Westbury, Jamaica, and Roosevelt.

Mr. Williams' sentencing is scheduled

for November 15. He was originally

indicted in October of 2001, after which

he ran for and won a second term in the

legislature.
