SNAP & HEAP Benefits- Apply to receive monthly discounts on energy bills. NY EAP application (link below)

Following the conclusion of the federal government shutdown last week, full SNAP benefits for November are being released and may be accessed by enrollees via EBT cards.
However, $400 million in federal funding for the Home Energy Assistance Program (HEAP) remains indefinitely delayed, affecting up to 1.5 million New Yorkers who rely on the program.
HEAP provides eligible households with annual payments to reduce energy costs.
We encourage residents without access to HEAP benefits to sign up for the New York State Energy Assistance Program (NY EAP), a program with a similar name, but a distinct function.
NY EAP provides eligible residents with monthly discounts to their energy bills.
Residents can apply for NY EAP benefits at this link: https://dps.ny.gov/energy-affordability-program.
REMINDER: Greenburgh is still collecting canned goods that are being distributed to food pantries and baby formulas. Boxes located at lobby of Greenburgh Town Hall, 177 Hillside Ave, White Plains.

GREENBURGH TOWN HALL ART EXHIBIT FOCUSES ON ‘HUNGRY’- LINK TO INTERVIEW WITH ARTIST BELOW
With all the current news about SNAP benefits being halted and food banks and food donation sites cropping up, "Hungry," Leila Dorne's current exhibit at Greenburgh Town Hall about food insecurity is quite timely. Sarah Bracey White, head of our arts and culture committee, interviews artist Leila Dorne. Click onto the link below:
https://youtu.be/8CZToBvrKYs

Leila Dorne’s ongoing series, Painted Words, is a group of reverent and irreverent views presented as literary art and executed in mixed media. Each picture includes quotes from the Bible, secular literature or original prose or poetry. Pictures extend onto all sides of the stretchers. Life continues beyond the canvas edge.

Food insecurity is a societal condition hiding in plain sight. Residents of affluent and financially challenged communities alike may be affected by hunger, and many families need to decide whether to pay rent or medical bills or to feed their families. Communities address hunger in various ways, In Port Chester, New York, for example, an organization called Meals on Main Street has taken on the task of building community through food. One venue is their blue food distribution truck, which is found daily at various sites in the Village.

In the Ballard neighborhood of Seattle, an upscale community, the Ballard Food Bank provides nutritional and many other services for those in need. They are “A Hub for Hope” for anyone in need of assistance. Hungry is an artist’s attempt to bring attention to addressing food insecurity. It’s a major challenge of our time.

The Hungry show is dedicated to Dorne’s son, Jon Lasser (1975 – 2025). Jon was a brave man, a gifted writer and a major inspiration to the social justice painting series.

FORMER TICKET OFFICE AT HARTSDALE TRAIN STATION AND WAITING ROOM NEEDS A TENANT

Darren Gordon, a commercial realtor with Houlihan Lawrence, is working with Metro North trying to find an excellent tenant for the 1,600 SF of prime retail space. An excellent opportunity for a restaurant or retail business. The building-which used to be the ticket office of Metro North, is in the center of the business district. It’s also a great location because of it access to public transportation.



If you know anyone who might be interested please e mail darrengordon@houlihanlawrence.com. Darren is also an active member of the Greenburgh Chamber of Commerce. It would be a big quality of life enhancement for commuters if those taking the train from Hartsdale would be able to relax in a heated waiting room area -especially during the cold winter months.

Sustainable Westchester has informed us that the Westchester Power renewable energy program will be discontinued at the end of this year. This decision results from practical implementation challenges associated with recently-adopted State outreach and education mandates. Sustainable Westchester has concluded that these regulatory requirements cannot be met on a schedule consistent with the program’s continued operation.

Starting with this December’s utility bill, customers who take no action will be returned to [Con Edison/NYSEG] as their default supplier of electricity.

As an alternative, customers may select another Energy Services Company (“ESCO”) for electricity supply. A list of currently active suppliers can be found at:

For Con Edison:

Greenburgh remains committed to working with Sustainable Westchester to accelerate a transition to clean power, promote energy efficiency, reduce costs, and improve resiliency.

For questions about the Westchester Power program or to learn more about Sustainable Westchester’s wide-ranging services, please email info@sustainablewestchester.org or call 914-242-4725 x.128

In recent years I have provided residents with monthly updates comparing Westchester Power rates with Con Ed's.

We deliver your energy, but where that energy comes from is up to you. Learn the benefits and shop for energy service companies, including those that offer green energy and other alternatives.
