	Importing Constituents - Prisoners and Political Clout in New York
		To the misfortune of New York City residents, it is the "too-small" rural Senate districts that have all the prisons, and the "too-large" urban districts that supply the prisoners that boost Upstate New York's clout.
		New York is a majority white state (54%), but the overwhelming majority of prison growth (87.6%) since 1970 has been of minorities.
		Seventy-four percent of New York State's prisoners are from the New York City and its suburbs; but despite clear evidence from before the prison boom began in the 1970s that frequent family contacts reduce recidivism, 87% of state prisoners are housed more than 2 hours from New York City.

	Westchester Land Trust, Bedford Hills, New York
		While most of the town is talking about the upcoming referendum on whether or not to approve a new tax levy to help preserve open space, some residents argue the better way is through conservation easements granted by large, community-minded land holders.
		The party was well attended by much of Bedford’s landed gentry and those in the know recognize how important conservation easements are to preserving the town’s rural landscape and character.
		Along with these new easements, the Westchester Land Trust recently purchased five acres of property near Waterbury Way in Pound Ridge that had already been approved for residential development, thanks to the generosity and cooperation of Paul Zofnass.

		Before Petitioner and her husband constructed their new home in 2004 the subject property was vacant land assessed at $36,400 by reference to a table of land values created at the time of the last revaluation in the Town of Bedford in 1974.
		The respondents' disparate treatment of new property owners on the one hand and long term property owners on the other has the effect of permitting property owners who have been longstanding recipients of public amenities to bear the least amount of their cost.
		In fact, I submit that municipalities throughout the County of Westchester (and even New York State) are likely to have land and improvement components of assessments in which the land portion is proportionately low.
