Chilly rain is tapping against the glass today, but a weekend packed with living-room dinners and holiday markets awaits just around the bend. Grab a warm cup before heading out.


The Lead

A coalition of six North Shore school districts, spearheaded by the North Shore Central School District and joined by the Village of Sea Cliff, has petitioned the New York State Public Service Commission for a rehearing and immediate stay on the Propel NY Energy transmission line.

The $3.26 billion infrastructure initiative includes installing underground high-voltage lines and constructing a substation on Shore Road in Glenwood Landing, steps from the district’s bus depot. School administrators contend that state regulators granted conditional approval before developers resolved essential safety and logistical contingencies, warning that street excavation could compromise emergency vehicle access and student bus schedules.

Following the state’s recent withdrawal of Propel’s water quality certificate, the petition places renewed scrutiny on the development timeline. Regulators must now weigh formal responses from project developers before issuing a decision on the stay.
