Kaplowitz searches for energy efficiency

April
29

Westchester Legislator Mike Kaplowitz, who opted not to run against state Assemblyman Greg Ball, must have some extra time on his hands. He’s been named leader of the Board’s newly-created Subcommittee on Energy Efficiency.

“Although this county has made great strides in the area of energy efficiency, we need to do more and we need to be aggressive,” Kaplowitz, a Somers Democrat, said in a press release.  “This country is in an energy crisis and due to the lack of leadership on the national level regarding this issue, we must roll up our legislative sleeves and provide energy leadership at the local level.”

Kaplowitz, who is also the Board’s vice chairman, was tapped for the post by Legislator Thomas Abinanti of Greenburgh. Abinanti chairs the Board’s Environment & Energy Committee.

The subcommittee’s first meeting will be 3 p.m. Monday with officials from the New York Power Authority.”

    Should have ran against Ball, Kaplowitz would have been an easy winner. Ball is committing political suicide.

    Another committee! Now we have committees committee-ing the committees.

    Just an idea- get rid of county government, and you’ll be able to shut down that huge building in White Plains. That’d save energy for sure.

    Knowing Andy’s Gang in the County, they will try to eliminate cars, put everyone on bikes, and then charge a high “air tax” when anyone needs to pump up bicycle tires.

    They’re working on the horses too, but have to figure out who they can hire to follow the horses around with brooms and pails to reduce that pollution problem.
