We thought we’d take the time this week to look back on new businesses this past year.

Click on the hyperlinks to our articles to refresh your memory.

Christopher Robert, a women's boutique in Clarkstown Plaza, features clothing, accessories and gifts.
Clarkstown Pharmacy, the second location for this longtime Nyack business is in New City.

If there's a new business in town we didn't cover, let us know in the comments. Also tell us: If you could see one new business in the area for 2013, what would it be?

The NC Patch wrote an article on my new book unREAL Education:Beyond Report Cards back in August. I just wanted to give you an update that it is now available in B&N in Nanuet and PICK WICK in Nyack also online and through me (unreal education@gmail.com) A great support book for parents of school age children,especially those with Special needs. A portion of the book sales are being donated to the International Dyslexia Association and Everyone Reading NY. THANKS!

This French-owned water company wants to implement its pet technology at our expense - it makes sense for the company because the project makes lots of money. There is information available that calls into question the "definitive" studies carried out by the water company. Of course they found that their technology was the best option - what a surprise! They have not made the case that they carried out a disinterested examination of the issues in the public interest. Yes there are still issues. Also, stop threatening us with increased costs from delay. First, it does not make sense and second, you are trying to bully us into accepting your proposal. That is one more sign that something is wrong in your proposal.

There were no open meetings. I attended the April meeting and Mr. Lettre was directed by the Town…Read More Board to return with more precise estimates and to include options for other upgrades. I have attended every meeting of the Town Board since that time and Mr. Lettre never returned in an open meeting. Mr. Borelli indicated that Mr. Lettre had addressed his concerns directly and privately. According to the Open Meetings Law, the deliberations of the Town Board are to be open and visible to the public. Private individual meetings or communications with members of the Town Board so as to avoid open deliberations flouts the intent of the Open Meetings Law. Mr. Gromack's statement of other meetings is inaccurate and, since it was specifically in response to a question about open meetings, dishonest. Mr. Borelli, shame on you for accepting a private communication and not standing by your guidance to Mr. Lettre that he was to come back to an open meeting of the Town Board.

The traffic from the nearby Palisades Parkway is more of a noise nuisance than the cicada chorus.…Read More (We have triple-paned windows because of it.) There is something almost musical about the hum of the cicadas. Of course, it may bother me more if I lived in the "affected area" and heard it constantly. Upon entering this nearby neighborhood, the sound crescendos. And yet, it can't be heard a couple of streets away. The drone of locusts is more bothersome than these 17 year cicadas.
