Assemblyman 1st District CHAIR Committee on Small Business December 15, 2018 Honorable Carl Heastie, Speaker New York State Assembly Legislative Office Building, Room 932 Albany, New York 12248 Dear Speaker Heastie: I am pleased to submit the 2018 Annual Report of the Assembly Standing Committee on Small Business. Throughout the 2018 Legislative Session, the Committee remained dedicated to addressing the needs of small businesses by passing legislation designed to aid small business in recognition of the current challenging marketplace. This past session the Committee worked on legislation designed to stimulate small and entrepreneurial business growth, to help small businesses to become both energy and environmentally efficient, to promote minority-and women-owned business development, to incorporate available resources for these entrepreneurs and to ease the regulatory strain on small businesses. The Committee worked closely with its members to craft legislation that would create an online informational resource for small businesses and minority- and women-owned businesses. It also addressed public concerns stemming from a Joint Legislative hearing examining the role of online lending, by introducing legislation to provide for online lending awareness to educate businesses on the potential costs associated with obtaining loans through online marketplace lenders. The Committee will continue to examine the full range of issues affecting the needs of small businesses. I join with my colleagues and commend you for your commitment to supporting small businesses.

For years, the Forum has been a key event for providing in-depth information to the US investment community regarding business opportunities in Greece. We recognize that Greece and the US have historical strong ties and a proven record of achievement when working together. My recent US visits have reinforced our relationship. This year, marking the 15th year of its history, is even more important, as the Greek economy is undergoing a major overhaul. Sweeping reforms in all sectors address bureaucratic distortions and inefficiencies with which we had put up for too long, and which effectively made our economy a closed economy.

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- GREAT KILLS -- Like many Staten Island youngsters, Dina Canepa was enrolled in a dance school when she was not much bigger than a tot. But unlike the majority of pre-school dancers, she has continued to embrace the art into adulthood. Dancing since the age of 2, the now 21-year-old Great Kills native and Annadale resident is the owner of Dance Sensations dance studio in Great Kills. Dina, who has long enjoyed instructing others in dance, founded the school at 249 Nelson Ave., in June 2007. “I absolutely love to teach,” she said. “If this wasn’t happening for me, I would have been a pre-school teacher.” Dina’s students, who range in age from 2 through adult, choose from a variety of styles, including jazz, tap, modern, lyrical, ballet, acro, hip-hop, musical theater and contemporary. Each June, they display their talent 4 and skill in a schoolwide recital. The next one, in 2010, will take place at the Williamson Theatre on the campus of the College of Staten Island, Willowbrook. A graduate of the Petrides School, Sunnyside, Dina returns each year with her students, who perform during an annual fund-raiser in the battle against breast cancer.

  • Agriculture William Magee, Chairperson
    New York State Assembly Carl E. Heastie, Speaker ANNUAL REPORT Committee on Agriculture William Magee, Chairperson THE ASSEMBLY STATE OF NEW YORK CHAIRMAN ALBANY Joint Legislative Commission on Dairy Industry Development COMMITTEES WILLIAM MAGEE Aging Member of Assembly Banks 121st Assembly District Higher Education Local Governments CHAIRMAN Committee on Agriculture December 15, 2015 Honorable Carl Heastie Speaker of the Assembly State Capitol, Room 349 Albany, NY 12248 Dear Speaker Heastie, As Chairperson of the Assembly Standing Committee on Agriculture, I respectfully submit to you the 2015 Annual Report. I have outlined the Committee's significant legislation, as well as the Committee’s priorities for the upcoming 2016 Session. The agricultural industry is of the utmost importance to New York State. A 2015 report by Farm Credit East estimates that the total impact on State economic output from agricultural, commercial fishing and forestry production, food processing, and off-farm services was approximately $48 billion and generated 197,745 jobs. Dairy processing alone generated an estimated $23 billion in output and created over 49,000 jobs. The 2012 USDA Census of Agriculture shows that nearly 23 percent of New York’s land area, over 7.1 million acres, is used by more than 35,000 farms to produce a diverse array of food products such as dairy, grains, fruits, vegetables, and maple syrup. New York is the leading producer in the United States of Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, sour cream, and cabbage, and a top 10 producer in the production of apples, grapes, maple syrup, cheese, onions, sweet corn, and tomatoes, amongst other fruits and vegetables.
