Rich Moffett Court Reporting, Inc. 1 6 2 CHAIRMAN KESSEL: Thank you, 3 Harry, and I appreciate that. 4 First let's do a board roll 5 call again. Again, I always say 6 this for the public. This is a 7 roll call for our Local Economic 8 Assistance Corporation which is the 9 sister agency to the IDA. 10 The IDA meeting will follow 11 this meeting probably in around 15 12 or 20 minutes. 13 So I'll do a roll call: 14 Richard Kessel, present. 15 Lewis Warren. 16 VICE CHAIRMAN WARREN: 17 Present. 18 CHAIRMAN KESSEL: Good 19 evening, Lewis. 20 VICE CHAIRMAN WARREN: Good 21 evening, Richie. 22 CHAIRMAN KESSEL: Good to see 23 you. 24 Anthony Simon I know is not 25 going to be attending this evening. Rich Moffett Court Reporting, Inc. 1 7 2 Tim Williams. 3 SECRETARY WILLIAMS: Present. 4 CHAIRMAN KESSEL: Tim, good 5 to see you. 6 Chris Fusco. 7 ASSISTANT SECRETARY FUSCO: 8 Present. 9 CHAIRMAN KESSEL: Good. Hi, 10 Chris. 11 ASSISTANT SECRETARY FUSCO: 12 Hi, Rich. 13 CHAIRMAN KESSEL: Amy Flores. 14 TREASURER FLORES: Present. 15 CHAIRMAN KESSEL: Hi, Amy. I 16 think it looks like you, me and 17 Harry are in the same place. 18 John Coumatos will join us 19 soon, he will join us soon. So we 20 do have a quorum for LEAC and I do 21 want to indicate that we will do 22 the pledge and several other things 23 at the beginning of the IDA meeting 24 which will follow this. 25 So we did the roll call. Rich Moffett Court Reporting, Inc. 1 8 2 Our first item of business is 3 a preliminary presentation and its 4 a preliminary resolution for the 5 Portledge School and I ask if the 6 Portledge School and their reps are 7 on the call, that they make a 8 presentation. 9 I do want to point out to the 10 public that we did have a meeting, 11 I think it was a Zoom meeting, with 12 the Portledge School recently so 13 this is something that was 14 presented to us, initially to 15 myself and the staff. 16 For the public's benefit, I 17 do want to indicate that this is a 18 preliminary resolution and we will 19 have a short presentation by the 20 Portledge School, the board will 21 then ask any questions and there 22 will be a vote whether to move the 23 project forward. There will then 24 be in the future a public hearing 25 and an approval vote by the board Rich Moffett Court Reporting, Inc. 1 9 2 if in fact we vote to go forward to 3 review this project. 4 With that, I'll hand it over 5 to the Portledge team and Andrew, 6 maybe you want to bring them in. 7 MR. KOMAROMI: Absolutely, 8 Richie. 9 So this is in front of the 10 board, is a preliminary resolution 11 for ultimately what would be a bond 12 issuance by LEAC for tax exempt and 13 possibly taxable bonds for the 14 Portledge School, and as you will 15 hear in the presentation, the 16 bonding would relate to certain new 17 capital expenditures as well as 18 some refunding of existing debt. 19 And I will hand it over to 20 Dan Froehlich who is acting as the 21 placement agent for the school for 22 this project. 23 MR. FROEHLICH: Good evening, 24 everybody. Thank you, Andrew and 25 thank you to everybody on the LEAC Rich Moffett Court Reporting, Inc. 1 10 2 board. I appreciate the 3 opportunity to present tonight. 4 There are representatives 5 from the school as well on the call 6 and they will be doing a brief 7 presentation as well so I'll 8 quickly work through the plan of 9 finance and then I'll turn it over 10 to the school to talk about the 11 project. 12 As Andrew referenced, we are 13 hoping to proceed with a tax exempt 14 issuance through LEAC. The purpose 15 would be to refinance an existing 16 taxable loan which was used for 17 capital projects on the campus and 18 that is in the amount of about four 19 and a half million dollars. 20 And the second use of the new 21 financing would be to finance an 22 athletic and wellness center on the 23 campus. The representatives from 24 the school will direct you to the 25 map that you see on the screen and Rich Moffett Court Reporting, Inc. 1 11 2 describe the project in more 3 detail, but that cost is in the 4 range of $6 million. 5 The total request is for 6 $11 million and the difference 7 would be for costs of issuance and 8 other related costs. 9 So at this time we have a 10 letter of intent from First 11 National Bank of Long Island for 12 $11 million that the school and I 13 have negotiated and we will be 14 working with them and their counsel 15 along with Andrew and the 16 corporation to create documents for 17 this transaction. 18 The refinancing is primarily 19 motivated by achieving debt service 20 savings which will help the school 21 with its operating budget in the 22 coming years.

Dear Secretary Deixler: By transmittal letter dated August 9, 2000, PPL Kings Park, LLC (PPL) filed its Preliminary Scoping Statement (PSS), pursuant to Article X of the Public Service Law, for the captioned project with the Chairman of the New York State Board on Electric Generation Siting and the Environment. The comment period was voluntarily extended to September 15, 2000 by PPL by letter dated August 30, 2000. This letter is provided to advise the Chairman and interested persons that PPL will be revising the PSS because the Project's capacity will be reduced from 600 MW to approximately 300 MW. Ongoing studies indicate that the transmission capacity at the Pilgrim Substation that is available to satisfy Long Island's peak demand (installed capacity requirements) is approximately 300 megawatts.

If you are reading this on November 18 or 19, 2009, at Advanced Energy 2009, you don’t need anyone else to tell you why energy is the crucial challenge facing humanity today. You get it and you are here for answers, ideas and new questions. You’ve come to the right place. Last year’s conference was the biggest such event ever held in New York State to address this critical issue, and Advanced Energy 2009 has leaped far ahead of it. We have had to enlarge the event to two full days this year because there simply weren’t enough hours in one day to fit all 189 energy subject matter experts. We have organized the speakers into thirty-five ses- sions in five different tracks so you may explore a rich diversity of subjects and technologies. We are especially pleased to partner with the U.S. Department of Energy for a half-day portion of the schedule in which DOE representatives will showcase advanced national programs from the Office of Science, the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, and the Office of Electricity.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The New York State Inspector General received allegations of flawed procurement practices, Board member improprieties, and questionable contributions at the New York Power Authority (NYPA). In response, the Inspector General conducted a broad investigation into these allegations and found weaknesses in numerous policies and procedures at NYPA that resulted in inadequate procurement practices, ethical lapses, and the lack of a formal policy with regard to business expenses that are contributory in nature. One allegation the Inspector General investigated asserted inadequate procurement practices in the retention of outside legal services. While NYPA employs a general counsel and assistant counsels, it outsources certain legal matters deemed beyond the purview or expertise of the Legal Department. In order to solicit firms to handle such legal matters, NYPA, in 2009 and 2010, drafted three

JAVITS CONVENTION CENTER NEW YORK, OCTOBER 30-31, 2012 WELCOME TO ADVANCED ENERGY 2012 We are pleased to welcome you to both the 2012 edition of our annual Advanced Energy Conference and the inauguration of The New York State Partnership of Energy Conferences. Indeed, Advanced Energy 2012 is a watershed event that brings together 19 individual energy conferences from throughout New York State to create what we believe to be the most complete and far-reaching event of its kind in the nation. It also underscores the importance of advanced energy research, development and implemen- tation to New York State, its economy, and its leadership. Its significance was demonstrated earlier this year when Governor Andrew M. Cuomo introduced the New York Energy Highway as a public-private initiative aimed at developing innovative concepts for upgrading and modernizing the State’s energy system. In his own right, New York City Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg is a vocal advocate for environmental and clean energy issues, and has been active in establishing programs focused on sustainable development in New York City and other major cities throughout the United States. We are proud that he has agreed to be a keynote speaker and participate in welcoming you to this landmark conference. Advanced Energy 2012 represents a dramatic growth in scope since 2010, when it was last hosted in New York City. The number of conference tracks has doubled to 14, with over 90 separate sessions, and 351 subject matter experts presenting to more than 2,000 attendees. This growth reflects the natural evolution of energy-related technologies and disciplines fostered by the increasingly critical challenges to be faced by an energy-dependent world.

  • LIPA, Again at a Crossroads, Considers Four Options for Its Future
    LIPA, again at a crossroads, considers four options for its future By Mark Harrington [email protected] @MHarringtonNews Updated November 28, 2020 6:23 PM With five years to go before its state-brokered contract with PSEG expires, the Long Island Power Authority again has a monumental task ahead: It must decide how best — or whether — to go forward with an electric utility plagued by new claims of mismanagement. After a string of devastating revelations about PSEG Long Island’s failures in its handling of Tropical Storm Isaias, LIPA officials and its board disclosed they will begin to look at options for how best to run the system, which stretches from the Rockaways to Montauk with 1.1 million customers. The move follows disclosures in a LIPA report this month that PSEG knew in advance of problems with a computer system that crashed as the worst of Tropical Storm Isaias hit, leaving 535,000 customers without power or answers about when it would be restored, some for more than a week. After a string of devastating revelations about PSEG Long Island’s failures in its handling of Tropical Storm Isaias, LIPA says it will reexamine how best to run the system, which has 1.1 million customers. Here's Newsday's Mark Harrington with a closer look at the story. Credit: Newsday / Mark Harrington, J. Conrad Williams Jr,; File footage It’s not the first time LIPA has been at this crossroads. The utility and the state have commissioned studies as recently as 2013 to determine the next best path for an electric system plagued by soaring debt, eye-popping bills, antiquated infrastructure and periodic charges of mismanagement by big-name contractors.
