Newsday Endorses Jon Kaiman, Democrat for Town Supervisor

Newsday Endorses Jon Kaiman, Democrat for Town Supervisor

Newsday Endorses Jon Kaiman, Democrat for Town Supervisor

“There is little doubt that Kaiman can jump-start the town to address its challenges, especially with his skills to engage state and federal partners. Newsday endorses Kaiman.”

Newsday
10/19/23

North Hempstead residents have the choice between giving freshman incumbent Jennifer S. DeSena another term to grasp the reins of town government or returning to office Jon Kaiman, who ran the town for ten years.

Newsday

October 19, 2023

Kaiman 61 did not seek reelection as supervisor in 2013 and since then has served as chairman of the Nassau Interim Finance Authority and as an administrator of the state’s relief program after Superstorm Sandy. He is currently a deputy to Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone. He says that those 10 years of administrative experience have given him new insights on how to run the town as well as some “humility.”

Newsday

October 19, 2023

In his earlier tenure, Kaiman established the town’s 311 program and created a better transportation service for older residents to help them age in place. Kaiman said he would review town code and projects for their environmental impact such as making sure building codes protect homeowners from the dangers of flooding.

Viewpoint: No contest—Jon Kaiman is better North Hempstead supervisor
October 16, 2023
by Karen Rubin

Unlike most elections where the challenger can simply argue against all the bad things that have occurred and take on the role of an outsider upending the establishment or the status quo, the upcoming election for North Hempstead town supervisor pits two people who have records in the job.  The contest is between Republican Jennifer DeSena, who currently holds the office of North Hempstead supervisor, and Jon Kaiman, who served for 10 years as supervisor.

 ***

 … the only thing that DeSena has to show for her first term in office – as she constantly reminds us with a barrage of mailers and TV ads (where is that money coming from?) is tax cuts that had to be shaved back from her original proposal as being irresponsible. She is literally trying to buy the election.

***

Her lack of leadership skills is on view at every Town Board meeting and the fact that she has never actually initiated anything.

In contrast, as North Hempstead’s supervisor for five terms from 2004 to 2013, Kaiman proved himself to be a bold visionary and leader. Some ideas (like accessory housing, which really should be revisited) had to be withdrawn (again, as a responsible elected official), but at least he tried.  And what he did accomplish was transformative for our town – Project Independence, which helped seniors stay in their homes and put North Hempstead on the top of “best places to live, retire” lists; 311 which changed how town government responds to residents; and protected greenspaces.

***

DeSena….actually can’t point to any real accomplishment.

***

Her stunning lack of leadership is demonstrated at most town meetings. which have been widely mocked. I vacillate as to whether it is because she is incompetent or just lazy.

***

Her support of admitted conman and fraudster George Santos to be elected to Congress points to her lack of judgment and seriousness, and sheer opportunism as a convert to the Republican Party.

***

With Kaiman, we know he has made strides in all of these areas: When he was last North Hempstead’s supervisor, he demonstrated his interest in climate action to protect the environment and reduce our carbon footprint, creating the town’s first-ever “Green Fleet” of 20 hybrid and electric vehicles; has demonstrated support for Israel; support for women’s rights (DeSena evaded a vote to promote more access to women’s health clinics); housing (he also opposes Gov. Kathy Hochul’s state mandates, but I have no doubt he will come up with a better solution in keeping with our “suburban” character); support for veterans; fiscal responsibility (he served on NIFA and in every way has shown in-depth understanding of fiscal realities); expanding access to mental health.

***

Kaiman already has a track record of bold accomplishments, and that when he says he sees his purpose in government in terms of making our lives, our communities, our neighborhoods better, these are not empty words.

Jon Kaiman — A Leader Of Our Time

Jon Kaiman — A Leader Of Our Time

While working as a legislative aide to the Town Board during Jon Kaiman’s tenure as North Hempstead supervisor, I was witness to his ardent determination to continue in the tradition of his predecessor, May Newburger, to lead a town government that would always be responsive to residents’ needs. Two of his major initiatives and accomplishments were the creation of Project Independence for Seniors, now a national model, plus the updating of public housing.

After meeting with seniors throughout the Town, it was clear that many wanted a program that would allow them to “age in place,” so they could live in familiar surroundings at home. He immediately got to work to create Project Independence for them. This program quickly expanded to include discount taxi rides to medical and dental appointments plus grocery shopping for seniors. Also added were other various programs, including exercise, nutrition, health and more. The success of Project Independence is huge, its impact tremendous.

Shortly after taking office, Supervisor Kaiman also met with Manhasset’s Spinney Hill residents who described their nearly unhabitable apartments. Clearly, the living situation could not continue since residents were now reduced to living in dilapidated, squalid, and dangerous conditions.

Supervisor Kaiman wasted no time and immediately inspected the Spinney Hill complex. He was shocked by the poorly maintained apartments’ conditions. They were filled with mold, leaking pipes, peeling paint, dangerous exposed electrical wires, cracked windows and broken bathroom tiles. Desperate to keep apartments warm in the cold months, tenants were forced to heat their apartments with open oven doors due to the heating system constantly breaking down.

Wasting no time, Supervisor Kaiman immediately consulted with the North Hempstead Housing Authority and other construction and rehab professionals. Within three years, this rehabilitation project was completed. At Spinney Hill’s grand re-opening, a senior resident was crying. She told me that she never thought she would ever live in such a beautiful place. She always thought she would be condemned to living in a broken-down hovel.

It should also be noted that former Supervisor Kaiman didn’t stop there, he expanded this rehabilitation program to include other North Hempstead public housing units located in Westbury, Port Washington, Roslyn and on East Shore Road in Great Neck. He wasted no time bringing these apartments up to code, as well.

In these dark times, clearly Jon Kaiman is the leader we desperately need. I urge you to vote wisely and to vote Row A on Tuesday, Nov. 7 for Jon Kaiman for North Hempstead Town Supervisor along with his team. I know that I will do so and will do so having great confidence in Jon Kaiman’s ability to lead us.

Jon Kaiman — A Leader Of Our Time

Vote For Jon Kaiman Creator of Great Programs

When you have no new programs, no new ideas or policies the best course of action is to viciously attack your opponent and that is exactly the campaign Jennifer DeSena our current North Hempstead supervisor is running.

If you like playing ping pong at the Senior Center, if you like taking courses at the Senior Center, if you like having an inexpensive lunch each day at the Senior Center, if you like getting inexpensive cab rides for doctor visits, thank Jon Kaiman.

These programs have been instituted through Project Independence which services our senior community and Project Independence was created by Jon Kaiman.

If you need information concerning town events, programs and general town information call 311. Jon Kaiman instituted this service for our community.

When tragedy hit our area his record was stellar. Jon was appointed by the governor for the clean-up and recovery effort in super storm Sandy. He did an outstanding job. He is known as “The Superstorm Recovery Czar”

Jon is an extremely creative and energetic man who has served his community well over the past forty years.

He obtained millions of dollars in federal grants for environmental infrastructure, housing and community improvement.

He built the Yes We Can Community Center in New Cassel, created and implemented the school recycling partnership, helped improve the quality of water through a variety of initiatives, created a no-kill shelter for dogs and the list goes on and on.

Just think of a future with a man who is interested in the environment, clean water, a protected coastline and creative ways of servicing our community. Jon has a proven record of initiating programs, services and government that works for the people.

Don’t let the negativity of DeSena guide you let the positive accomplishments of Jon Kaiman and the future possibilities of Jon Kaiman’s innovative programs that service North Hempstead guide your vote.

Of Democrat Kaiman, Curran continued, “He also has a strong record of fiscal discipline and a cast-iron commitment to reining in wasteful spending. There’s a reason Jon’s opponents are running scared and lying about his record. They know that Jon has earned the trust and respect of the Town’s residents and that he will always put people  – not politics – first.”

If Environment Matters Vote Democrat Jon Kaiman for North Hempstead Town Supervisor

If Environment Matters Vote Democrat Jon Kaiman for North Hempstead Town Supervisor

So Say New York League of Conservation Voters & Sierra Club

Democrat Jon Kaiman earned Environmental Seals of Approval as he seeks election to return as Supervisor of the Town of North Hempstead.  Both The New York League of Conservation Voters and The Sierra Club endorsed Democrat Jon Kaiman for Town of North Hempstead Supervisor in the election to be held Tuesday, November 7, 2023. 

The New York League of Conservation Voters is the only non-partisan, statewide environmental organization in New York that fights for clean water, clean air, renewable energy, and open space through political action.

The Sierra Club, America’s oldest and largest grassroots environmental organization, and its constituent Chapters and Groups including its volunteer-led Atlantic Chapter representing 50,000 members across New York State, work to elect political leaders who will take action to protect the planet – who will work to ensure that the present and future generations have clean air, clean water, safe and healthy neighborhoods and access to wild lands and open spaces. 

“My focus in every government leadership position I have held, including my role as Deputy County Executive, in my role in the New York Rising Sandy Relief program, and during my previous service as Town of North Hempstead Supervisor, is to pursue environmental policies to reduce greenhouse gases; protect our drinking water; clean and restore our bays and wetlands; reduce, reuse and recycle our waste; develop renewable energy sources; and educate the public on why and how we will work towards a cleaner, more sustainable planet,” stated Kaiman.

“As the former Town Supervisor of North Hempstead, Jon Kaiman enacted numerous strong environmental policies, including the establishment of a town-wide school recycling initiative, his “Stop Throwing Out Pollutants” program, and his efforts to clean up Manhasset Bay and Hempstead Harbor,” stated Julie Tighe, President, New York League of Conservation Voters. “We also commend his work protecting the shorelines across Long Island and Queens in the wake of Superstorm Sandy, which was critical to preventing future flooding damage. Jon Kaiman is a proven environmental leader on Long Island and that is why NYLCV is proud to endorse his candidacy for North Hempstead Town Supervisor.”

Our endorsement is based on your demonstrated commitment to environmental protection and our expectation that, going forward, you will continue to work diligently to preserve and enhance Long Island’s precious environmental resources,” wrote Sierra Club Long Island Group Political Chair Albert Fredericks in the group’s letter informing Democrat Jon Kaiman of its endorsement.

As North Hempstead Town Supervisor (2004-2013) Democrat Kaiman initiated an aggressive environmental agenda while ensuring the town’s fiscal stability, including:

  • The NYS Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) Award-winning North Hempstead School Recycling Partnership Program taught 40,000 future leaders how to properly dispose of recyclable waste.
  • The first municipality in New York to institute a Pharmaceutical Take Back Program, an EPA award-winning initiative, which led to diverting hundreds of tons of unused and unwanted pharmaceuticals entering our waterways or getting into the wrong hands.
  • The first municipality on Long Island to institute a residential Composting Cooperative and a Recycle the Rain rain barrel program.
  • Developed a “Virtual Recycle Store” where, from A-Z, you could search for almost any item that you would like to dispose of and The Town of North Hempstead supplied the proper means of disposal, recycling information or a donation suggestion.
  • North Hempstead received the Diamond Award for Energy from The American Council of Engineering Companies (ACEC) for serving as the lead agency for the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) Sustainability Plan for Long Island.
  • Merged two local sewer districts to create one tertiary plant that cost less to the taxpayers while significantly reducing nitrogen flow into Manhasset Bay.
  • Reseeded Manhasset Bay and Hempstead Harbor with oysters in order to create natural filters to help clean it up and improve the water quality.
  • Restored Long Island Sound wetlands along town bays.
  • Created and implemented Clean Sweep and Green Team programs cleaning streets, and picking up litter and debris from throughout the town on an ongoing basis.
  • Envisioning, funding, designing and building the Platinum LEED Certified Yes We Can Community Center in New Cassel, Westbury which including geo thermal wells, a solar wall and solar parking panels, an electric vehicle charging station, gray water, natural light in every room on every floor of the building, recycling construction materials, and the addition of a bus stop to enhanced public transportation.

 

As Deputy Suffolk County Executive, Kaiman initiated and helped implement environmental policy programs such as:

  • The County Electric Vehicles program including being a featured speaker on municipal transformation to electric vehicle fleets at the annual New York Association Counties Conference in 2019.
  • A county school recycling program based on Kaiman’s North Hempstead program.
  • A state-of-the-art wind energy training facility in Brentwood in partnership with the National Offshore Wind Training Center board that will train offshore wind industry.
