Charges fly in battle for Senate seat Charges and counter-charges are flying in the heated primary battle for the Democratic nomination to represent the 34th District in the New York State Senate. The Riverdale Review has learned that in March, 2007, an email soliciting campaign funds was sent to officers and directors of non-profit organizations on behalf of then-Councilman G. Oliver Koppell. The letter was signed by Mr. Koppell’s wife, Lorraine Coyle Koppell, and was clearly directed at those organizations that received “member item” funds from the city at the behest of Mr. Koppell. The letter was emailed from an address associated with Ms. Coyle’s law office. While the letter did not directly threaten the loss of such funding in the future to groups whose leadership did not support Mr. Koppell, such a threat could easily be construed by the tone of the letter and its context. It was emailed on March, 14, 2007, urging the recipient to buy tickets for a fundraiser to celebrate what was then 30 years of “public service.” “On Sunday, Oliver will be celebrating 30 years of public service. We are hoping that those people and organizations for whom Oliver has been so helpful will join us to celebrate this terrific day. “Since we haven’t heard from you or members of your board – we hope you will be attending. “Just a reminder – the party is on this Sunday, March 18 from 4-6 p.m. at the home of Dr. Jonathan and Alexandra Zizmor… “A sponsor is $500; Friend is $250; Supporter is $100 and Guest is $50. “Please send me an email or call me … to let me know how

many people we may expect.” It was not clear what election race for public office Mr. Koppell was raising funds for, since at the time it was expected that he would be barred from seeking reelection in 2009 due to term limits twice approved by city voters in a referendum. In 2009, Mayor Bloomberg, Council Speaker Christine Quinn and Mr. Koppell spearheaded the drive to overturn term limits through the passage of as bill in the City Council, but this was not yet anticipated as Mr. Koppell was raising funds two years earlier. Klein’s spokesperson, Candice Giove noted “this type of quid pro quo activity by an elected official’s wife is exactly the reason we passed sweeping ethics reforms this session. Ms. Coyle-Koppell’s actions prove that we need to continue the fight for tighter campaign finance reforms.” Meanwhile, in a letter to Tracy McCabe Shelton, Executive Director of the Kingsbridge-Riverdale-Van Cortlandt Development Corporation (KRVC), former Council Member Oliver Koppell said that he is “greatly disturbed” at the “use of the development corporation as a promotion and publicity vehicle for the re-election campaign of State Senator Jeffrey Klein.” Founded in 1981 by then Assembly Member Koppell, KRVC is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization that was originally incorporated to support and encourage commercial development and community improvements. As a 501(c)(3) organization, the development corporation has tax-exempt status and, according to IRS rules, is prohibited from engaging in political activity. Koppell claims that Tracy McCabe Shelton, as Executive

New vendor at VC Park stables

The current concessionaire in charge of the extensive riding stables in Van Cortlandt Park has been terminated as a result of an investigation by the City’s Department of Investigation. A spokesperson for the Department of Investigation declined comment regarding the circumstances and specifics of the investigation. This necessitates that the Parks Department hire a new vendor, a process that has been accelerated, leaving the local community out in the cold, once again. This is reminiscent of the secret process that led to the construction of a controversial skating rink there two years ago. This doesn’t sit well with Dan Padernacht, the Community Continued on Page 15

Director, is using KRVC’s funds for blatantly political purposes by promoting events with her “close friend,” State Senator Klein, in which he is prominently featured. While Koppell has no objection to the Development Corporation sponsoring events to improve our communities, he does object to this blatant bolstering of Klein’s candidacy. “Senator Klein is always the focus of the publicity surround-

ing these events (on the KRVC website; on KRVC e-blasts) and the displays at the events themselves, which include huge placards with Klein’s picture. Further, at the recent movie nights in Seton Park and Van Cortlandt Park, staff members distributed refreshments, repeatedly identifying Senator Klein as having contributed the food for the event.” Koppell is demanding that Tra-

cy McCabe Shelton immediately stop using the development corporation as a vehicle to support Klein for re-election. Koppell said it is a violation of federal law to use a not-for-profit corporation for political purposes. Koppell also believes that monies from Klein may have been used to bolster the salary of McCabe Shelton. He has therefore demanded the following Continued on Page 2

Klein secures passage of new speed limit

Governor Andrew Cuomo signed State Senator Jeff Klein’s bill authorizing New York City to lower its speed limit from 30 to 25 miles per hour. Klein bill to lower city speed limit signed by Governor Cuomo State Senator Jeff Klein (D-Bronx/Westchester) announced Monday that Governor Andrew Cuomo signed his bill authorizing New York City to lower its speed limit from 30 to 25 miles per hour. “With this new law we say to reckless drivers - enough is enough. By lowering the speed limit we remind speeders that our roads are not raceways and that in a city such as ours, streets are public, not private roads, and they must be respected,” said State Senator Jeff Klein. “This bill will save lives and it is an important step to making our streets safer. Without Senator Klein this bill would not have passed this session and we are

grateful for his leadership which we expect to continue in the months ahead as we continue to work for safer streets,” said Aaron Charlop-Powers, Families for Safer Streets Advocate. The Klein sponsored bill (S7892), which passed the State Senate in June, seeks to reduce the high number of vehicle and pedestrian accidents that occur every year throughout New York City by allowing New York City to lower its default speed limit in areas where the speed limit is not already posted from 30 to 25 mph. It also gives community boards input, a measure which community boards throughout the Bronx praised. Bronx Community Board 8 Chairman Dan Padernacht said: “As former chair of Community

Board 8’s transportation committee, and now as Chairman, I know the weight that traffic and pedestrian safety issues carry in our community. I thank Senator Klein for his leadership on this issue and for the urgency he had in getting this bill through the Senate this year. I have no doubt that this legislation will make our streets safer and protect Bronx families from traffic related injury or harm.” Bronx Community Board 9 Chairman William Rivera said, “As a longtime resident and now chairman of Community Board 9, I know the streets in our community inside and out and know the blocks and thoroughfares that experience the highest levels of speeding.

Charges fly in election battle

Continued from Page 1 information be provided to him and to the public no later than 10 days from the date of his letter: (1) The amount of State money Senator Klein been responsible for allocating to the development corporation in the 2013-2014 State budget year and in the 2014-2015 State budget year. (2) How such funds have been spent in the 2013-2014 State budget year and how such funds have been spent in the 2014-2015 year to date. (3) The Executive Director’s salary and other compensation for the 2013-2014 and 2014-2015 State budget years, and whether there was a quid pro quo for such support. Koppell also asked McCabe Shelton to provide the names and salaries of all current employees of the Development Corporation and the names and compensation of all contractors who have provided goods or services to the Development Corporation. Koppell concluded that “if the information provided indicates violations of the Internal Revenue Code, then McCabe Shelton is putting the tax-exempt status of a very important organization in jeopardy, and she would be violating both her oath as a lawyer and her fiduciary duty to KRVC.” For his part Klein denies Koppell’s charges and noted that in the past Koppell has benefitted from credit given to him on KRVC projects he funded. Candice Giove, Klein’s spokesperson replied, suggested Koppell may have a double standard here. “State Senator Klein is proud to support the KRVC, a local development corporation, which hosts popular events and promotes neighborhood businesses. For the senator’s challenger to take a cheap shot at a reputable organization, which he funded in the past, and which still features him on its website is nothing short of desperation from a candidate with no support. In fact, at the KRVC’s recent movie nights Senator Klein’s challenger and his staff distributed campaign literature to large crowds that enjoy the great events this non-profit hosts.” Other critics of the KRVCDC, such as

New speed limit

Continued from Page 1 Senator Klein’s legislation, the community board will be empowered to take action on lowering speed limits in areas where other tools have been ineffective. I believe this measure will not only make our streets safer, but also save lives.” Bronx Community Board 10 Chairman John Marano said, “As Chairman of Bronx Community Board 10, I both applaud and support this legislation, and extend my appreciation for the Senator’s efforts in working with his colleagues at the State and local levels of government to bring innovative change to our traffic laws. The speed limit reduction will have a positive effect upon Bronx Community Board 10 and will make our streets safer.” The new law, which is aligned with Mayor Bill de Blasio’s Vision Zero plan, is aimed at reducing the thousands of pedestrian injuries and hundreds of traffic related fatalities that occur in New York City every year. Statistics show that lowering the speed limit to 25 miles per hour dramatically reduces the chance of a pedestrian car-related fatality to 1 in 10. The law builds on Senator Klein’s continued efforts to protect pedestrians and save lives, most notably when it comes to children in school zones. Earlier this year Klein helped secure an additional 120 speed cameras to be placed in wellknown problem areas where drivers are known to speed.

Riverdale Review publisher Andrew Wolf, noted that “there seems to be a pattern of over-reaching by the current Development Corporation leadership, too often crossing the line into partisan politics. We may be seeing that now, just as we have seen it in the past with support for City Council candidate Cliff Stanton, efforts to manipulate the community board to support housing programs that could lead to new management contracts for the Development Corporation, their attempt to lead a coup against the leadership of the Woodlawn Taxpayers Association, and the revelations that the politically-inspired boycott of the Riverdale Review some years ago was run out of their office using their computers and resources. Its time to get partisan politics and manipulation of the public interest off of their agenda.”

Congressman Eliot Engel, State Senator Jeff Klein, Assemblyman Jeffrey Dinowitz, and Council Member Andrew Cohen last week issued the following joint statement regarding the anti-Semitic markings found in Seton Park: “The recent rash of disgusting anti-Semitic insignias found in the parks and playgrounds of the Riverdale area is truly disturbing. Once again yesterday, the 50th precinct responded to another incident where swastikas were carved into the ground at Seton Park. These are the places that our children come to play, congregate and socialize. The case has now been turned over the NYPD’s Hate Crimes Task Force, which has overseen and is currently investigating the previous incidents of anti-Semitic behavior in our neighborhood. “This is a problem that cannot stand. As a community we must come together and condemn these heartless acts of bigotry by saying enough is enough. The increase in anti-Semitism is a blight on our neighborhood, and has highlighted the need to stand up for, and with, the Jewish people during this particularly turbulent time. We as elected officials have and will continue to do so unequivocally. “It is our hope that those who perpe-

Attracting Tourists, 1770 Summer vacationtime is often the occasion to travel far to exotic places to see sights not ordinarily encountered at home. Most cities and countries mount great advertising campaigns to bring various tourist attractions found there to the attention of potential visitors. By this means, the visitor might be induced to go to that locale, see what is there, enjoy him or herself, learn a thing or two, and most important to the host, to spend some money. The tactic is not new. It was used for the first time in the Bronx in 1770. In those days, the Bronx was part of Westchester County. Although politically divided into towns and huge estates called manors, it was filled with farmland. The town of Westchester covered almost all of what is now The Bronx, but the center of town was merely a small village of a few scattered residences, a general store, a courthouse and jail, a tavern and two churches clustered near today’s Westchester Square. What could possibly attract people there from outside the town? Unusually for a small rural town, Westchester had been given special

privileges almost a century earlier by also being made into a borough. This gave the inhabitants (not just landowners, the normal restriction at the time) the right to vote for a mayor, aldermen and common councilmen, to have a mayor’s court try low level criminal cases and small claims civil cases, and to elect their own Assemblyman to the colonial Assembly. It also allowed the borough to hold a fair twice a year, once in the fall and once in the spring, where farmers sold crops and livestock. By 1770, the fair attracted buyers from as far away as New England and New Jersey who lodged in the tavern, then owned by George Youngs. To attract more visitors, he advertised in newspapers that his tavern was large and commodious, and that he offered special entertainment. At the spring fair in 1771, as an additional inducement, he advertised that he would exhibit “A piece of curious WAX WORK during the Time of the Fair.” This became the first public display of any work of art in the history of The Bronx. Without doubt, it attracted more tourists to George Youngs’ tavern.

‘I am very pleased that Congress took decisive action to address the issues that plague the Department of Veterans Affairs. Our veterans should not be forced to wait an unreasonably long time for medical care, and it’s appalling to even think that some have died because of treatment delays. ‘The men and women who serve this country in uniform do so with pride. They have sacrificed much for our nation and, at the very least, we should strive to provide them with the care they deserve. ‘This law is proof that both chambers of Congress can work together to pass sensible legislation that protects and promotes our national interests. Cooperation is at the very heart of good governance. I would like to see lawmakers work together more closely on other pressing issues when we reconvene in September.’ The Veterans Access, Choice & Accountability Act of 2014 reduces delays by creating a pilot program that enables

veterans who have waited at least 30 days for an appointment or who live more than 40 miles from a VA center to obtain care at another medical facility. This bill also allocates additional funding for the VA to hire more specialists and primary care physicians. The bill increases accountability and oversight by authorizing VA officials to fire or demote senior employees for poor performance or misconduct. It also requires an independent assessment of VA medical facilities, and establishes a Congressional Commission on Care to evaluate access to treatment throughout the VA health care system. Additionally, the bill improves education benefits for veterans and dependents by requiring public colleges receiving G.I. Bill payments to provide in-state tuition to veterans and eligible dependents, and by providing full benefits to spouses of service members who died in the line of duty after September 11, 2001.

CREATIVE WRITING 3:30 p.m. Kingsbridge Branch Library 291 West 231st Street Join us for a 7-week series of workshops led by John Maney, where we’ll explore the use of our five senses – smell, taste, touch, sight, and hearing – to enhance everyday and creative writing. We’ll examine how most of us understand the world through our senses, and how accessing them can help participants find their unique voices. We’ll also learn how to invoke the senses, so people not just read the stories and poems participants write, but experience them. For more information, call 718-548-5656.

Report shows that ACA will extend Medicare solvency

Congressman Eliot Engel, a senior member of the House Energy and Commerce Committee and a member of the Subcommittee on Health, says that a report from the Social Security and Medicare Boards of Trustees confirms that the Affordable Care Act (ACA) has helped buoy Medicare, extending the solvency of Medicare’s hospital insurance by an additional four years. ‘This report should send the Republican spin doctors into hiding. It’s contrary to what they have been peddling about the Affordable Care Act. Thanks to the Affordable Care Act, the Medicare Hospital Insurance Trust Fund will remain solvent four years longer than projected. This is welcome news for the millions of seniors who rely on Medicare to cover doctor visits, prescriptions, and hospital stays. ‘Certainly more needs to be done to shore up Medicare so that it will remain solvent for the next generation. I will

continue to press solutions that address its long-term financial security without sacrificing medical coverage for some of our most vulnerable citizens.’

GUEST EDITORIAL

Second Chance for the NYPD? Editorial of The New York Sun • August 9, 2014

It looks like the stop-question-and-frisk case is going back to the riders of the Second Circuit of the United States Court of Appeals. That’s the signal from the Patrolmen’s Benevolent Association, which filed on Wednesday notice it is appealing a decision of the district court denying New York City’s police officers a chance to defend their good name. We wish them luck. Both merits and the constitutional issues in this case deserve a chance to be heard before the Second Circuit, particularly because the original judge, Shira Scheindlin, was found to have failed to maintain the appearance of impartiality. Time, moreover, is of the essence here. It has been plain since early in this case that Judge Scheindlin was the wrong judge to be decider, particularly given that there was no jury. The moment Judge Scheindlin ruled against the City — essentially calling the police bigots — the Bloomberg administration should have been going flat out to get it reversed. It did move, but not quickly enough. Every day that passed with the ruling in place put our officers at a disadvantage, and the city’s dilatory behavior mystified the Second Circuit. This we know because the Second Circuit said so. That was in October, in its first hearing in the case. The city’s lawyer, pressing for a stay of Judge Scheindlin’s ruling, had barely begun to speak before Judge Jose Cabranes, seated between Judges John Walker and Barrington Parker, interrupted to ask her to explain why the city, while castigating the trial judge for ruling against the police, had been “dragging its feet” on the appeal. Before the hearing was over Judge Walker indicated he was troubled by the plaintiffs’ implication that the NYPD has shown “bad faith and deliberate disregard of rights” reminiscent of the Jim Crow-era South. The court seemed particularly perplexed by the Bloomberg administration’s dawdling because an election was approaching in which the Democratic nominee, Bill de Blasio, was opposed to appealing Judge Scheindlin’s ruling. In the event, the hearing was barely over a day when the Second Circuit stunned the city by removing Judge Scheindlin from the case. The court acted, as courts sometimes can, sua sponte, meaning on its own. It stayed the district court ruling and sent the case back down to a different judge. New Yorkers went ahead and elected Mr. De Blasio mayor, and he moved to drop the city’s appeal. This is how the police unions emerged in a key position. If the city wasn’t going to defend their good name, they wanted to be able to do so. Nor was their good name all that was at stake. Other elements of Judge Scheindlin’s rulings give them, as our front line in the war against crime, what they see as standing. So Patrolmen’s and other unions filed to intervene and continue the appeal even if the city dropped it. What happened last week is that the new district judge, Analisa Torres, turned the unions down, saying the unions had waited too long. That would mean the case could soon be over, with Judge Scheindlin’s ruling more or less intact, though the 2nd Circuit has maintained the mandate, meaning nothing is going to happen of which it fails to approve. Hence the importance of the Patrolmen’s appeal. Their filing in the case strikes us as worthy of full consideration, and the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, in Los Angeles, has offered a precedent that a police union can intervene in a case like this. New Yorkers deserve more than pettifoggery over deadlines. We are, after all, at a turning point in the war against crime. Stop-question-and-frisk is just the keystone. Squeegee men are starting to appear again. The district attorney in Kings County is backing off from prosecuting “minor” marijuana offenses. Broken Windows policing is in question. In the chokehold case, as the New York Post has been pointing out, Mr. de Blasio is in danger of losing control of the situation to demagogic actors like the Reverend Al Sharpton. In this context, it is one thing for the mayor to back off from stop-question-and-frisk as a matter of policy. It is another thing for the Courts to say the cops have to retreat because the heroic results they brought in during the Raymond Kelly years are based on a bigoted program. If this is not an actual case and controversy, which is what is required for the courts to stay involved, it’s hard to imagine what is.

This time, Israel must finish the job To The Editor: Every several years, the same scenario repeats itself. The Islamic terrorist organization Hamas, without provocation or warning, suddenly lets loose a barrage of rockets on the people of Israel with the aim of killing and maiming as many of them as possible. Israel, naturally, responds to this attack and eventually gains the upperhand. But before Israel can completely destroy Hamas and its arsenal of weapons, it is forced by the United States to withdraw from Gaza before finishing the job, thereby enabling the terrorists to rebuild and strike again. As the years go by, Hamas not only rebuilds and expands its deadly arsenal of rockets but

Preventing the next Gaza-Israel War

To The Editor: There have now been 3 wars between Gaza and Israel in the past 6 years. If nothing is done to stop the protagonist - the Islamic resistance army more commonly known as Hamas - then the only certain future for the area is that there will be another war in the not too distant future.

Who’s supporting Klein?

To The Editor: Is there a special interest that Klein doesn’t take money from? His filing was 3 days late! Is he going to apologize to Oliver Koppell for a late filing (that was actually filed on time)? Are his minions going to apologize? So interesting how few individuals actually donate to him - actually a total of 6 from Riverdale and Kingsbridge for this whole year. What does that say about his support and what does that say about who he answers to? We

Surely you won’t print this letter to the editor since all you do is criticize Oliver when Oliver has done more for our community than anyone ever has - and all without a hint of scandal. Can you say the same about Klein? Lorraine Coyle Koppell (Editor’s note: Ms. Coyle is married to candidate Koppell.)

While many world leaders recognize the necessity of eliminating Hamas - both for the benefit of Israel and for the Palestinian civilians who suffer negatively both directly and indirectly from the decisions made by Hamas - few have the foresight or vision as to how to accomplish this task. The Palestinian authority does not have the will or the capability to eradicate Hamas. The Arabs cannot be trusted to do it - with the possible exception of Egypt, which has been destroying terror tunnels in Gaza, enforces the necessary blockade to stop terror supplies reaching Hamas, and has thwarted an Islamic suicide bomber terror attack and rocket attacks aimed at Israeli civilians in the past month. Israel has the capability to get rid of Hamas, but the world accuses Israel of being too brutal in doing it. The western countries that could do it know full well that if they were to do it that they would behave as ‘brutally’ as they accuse Israel of in the face of Islamic terrorists using civilian human shields, and they would have to come to terms with their hypocritical stance towards Israel. Western countries also have no appetite to fight any Islamic terrorist group - especially one playing hostage to a civilian population.   While it is, sadly, abundantly Continued on Page 15

Preventing the next war

Continued from Page 14 clear that the world is not actually prepared to do what is needed to stop the conflict reoccurring, the western world does have some control. Funds given to the Palestinians should be strictly controlled - it is irresponsible (if not downright murderous) to continue to look the other way while the Palestinian terrorists get rich, spare no expense on buying rockets and invest millions in terror tunnels. Without funds the terror trade of Hamas will die, even though the ideology of course will not. Perhaps this is the best solution that the western would is prepared to fathom for now.

VC Park stables vendor Continued from Page 1 Board’s new chair. The city’s Franchise Board refused his request for a one-month delay. “The community does not have any knowledge of this agreement. There is no information about the principals of the concessionaire. There are no details regarding the capital improvements required of the concessionaire. There is no discussion about whether the rent amount is fair. “This is not an ice cream stand in the park for a summer. This is a significant concession which encumbers park land and provides a longstanding service to the community for ten years. The public must be made aware of this agreement and have an opportunity to comment. ”It has been relayed that the Parks Department cannot wait any longer because the horses must be cared for. However, we do not know who owns these horses? Are they being transferred to the new concessionaire? Are they privately owned? Is the facility closing when the capital project begins? No answers to these questions, or similar ones, have been presented or vetted.” What we do know is that a new vendor will have a ten-year contract effective the end of August, and the local community has been excluded from participating in the process.

Israel must finish job

Continued from Page 14 Israel’s vaunted “Iron Dome” system. But this limited defensive system only destroys about 90% of incoming rockets which leaves 10% of these deadly missiles of destruction to get through. Also, this system can be overwhelmed if enough rockets are launched simultaneously. Israel is running out of time. Now is probably Israel’s last chance to destroy Hamas once and for all. If it is not allowed by the United States to finish the job now, Israel is doomed! The “moral equivalency” crowd, the anti-Semites, the Jew-haters will have won. Alvin Gordon
