Basil Paterson Recalled As Wise Man of Labor By RICHARD STEIER | Posted: Monday, April 21, 2014 5:15 pm Basil A. Paterson, perhaps best known as a powerhouse in Harlem politics whose son David became New York’s first black Governor, was remembered following his death at 87 April 17 by union leaders as a mentor and bargaining counsel who combined wisdom and calm to great advantage. “Basil Paterson was the rare individual who knew how to talk to people, he knew what to say to people and he also knew when to say it,” said Teamsters Local 237 President Gregory Floyd. ‘Taught Us So Much’ American Federation of Teachers President Randi Weingarten, who retained Mr. Paterson as outside labor counsel for the United Federation of Teachers upon becoming its president in 1997 and continued to seek his advice when she moved on to the AFT 12 years later, described him as “always being a consigliere in the truest sense of the word.” Referring to her counterpart at the city’s giant health-care union, Local 1199 of the Service Employees International Union, she said, “Both George Gresham and I always say he taught us so much.” One of the most potent arrows in Mr. Paterson’s quiver was his sense of diplomacy. In 2006, he was thrust into a difficult spot when, following a three-day transit strike the previous December, the rank and file of Transport Workers Union Local 100 voted down the wage contract that ended the walkout by just seven votes out of more than 22,000 cast.

After a series of Advisory Board unsuccessful reorganization plans, the Club board voted to sell Woodcrest in a Myron Blumenfeld voluntary bankruptcy auction. Ann Cannell Judith Chapman In an attempt to protect this significant property, North Shore Land Alliance Louise Harrison (NSLA) put together a group of investors to bid on the property. The “North Shore Eric Kulleseid Neal Lewis Land Alliance Group” was composed of the Village of Muttontown, the Town of Robert Mackay Oyster Bay, neighbors of the Woodcrest Club, a private investor and NSLA. While Sarah Meyland our $15.25 million bid was more than the “stalking horse” bid, we did not win but Peter Schiff John Turner did learn a lot about the process.

  • Nassau Sewage System Privatization Could Flush County's Future Down
    Nassau Sewage System Privatization Could Flush County’s Future Down The Drain By Christopher Twarowski on November 17th, 2011 Phil Franco won’t quit. Franco is the co-chair of the watchdog Cedar Creek Health Risk Assessment Committee along with Mark Salerno of Wantagh, who’s standing just a few yards away. They put this rally together to raise awareness about the latest battle in what have been several decades of issues concerning the park’s main resident, the county-run Cedar Creek Water Pollution Control Plant. About two dozen people have joined them, including Franco’s wife, children and father Vincent, who has been active for decades in safeguarding the public from the plant’s risks. It’s a much smaller turnout than previous rallies at this same spot. Glaringly absent is Legis. Dennis Dunne (R-Levittown), whose district covers the plant, the typically vocal heads of the Wantagh-Seaford Homeowners Association and members of grassroots hell-raisers Green Bay Parkers—all historically outspoken on any matter concerning Cedar Creek or its sister facility, the county’s troubled Bay Park Sewage Treatment Plant. Wearing a light blue jacket, a green Seaford baseball cap and holding a sign that reads “Man The Plant,” the 48-year-old father of four is standing at the entrance to Nassau County’s Cedar Creek Park on Merrick Road. What Franco and the handful of others are protesting this chilly afternoon in early November, however, couldn’t be any more starved for sunlight or public awareness. They’re part of a growing number of concerned taxpayers and county residents who have caught whispers of a scheme that, if left unchecked, will potentially dictate the future of all county residents’ wallets for the next 40 years.
