About $1.8 billion in federal aid from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development has been set aside to help city residents and businesses rebuild after Hurricane Sandy. Senator Charles Schumer said the additional relief money will be given to the state for rebuilding efforts.

Before the Community Development Block Grant money will actually be released to the state and the city, New York officials must submit their plans for how they want to spend the money.

HUD officials must then review those plans before giving the money to the city and state government.

In a statement, Schumer says, “We know there is desperate need and anxious waiting in the places hit by the storm, and we will be making sure that this money gets to homeowners, small business and communities as quickly as possible.”

A two year old Clifton boy was one of three people taken to the hospital after a car traveling down a residential street sideswiped two minivans.

Yoel Feder, son of Rabbi Avi Feder, sustained serious head trauma in the accident, after a light colored Hyundai with New Jersey plates turned into the driveway of 411 South Parkway, located half a mile away from the boy’s Laurel Ave home, striking a babysitter who was loading the toddler into a minivan, pinning him between the two vehicles.

Fire Chief Vincent Colavitti of the Clifton Fire Department reported that the car, which was traveling west on South Parkway, initially struck a woman who was putting a child into a minivan parked on the street. The driver continued down South Parkway before turning into the driveway where the second accident occurred.

The driver of the vehicle was said to be incoherent when emergency workers arrived at the scene of the accident.

Three people, including the toddler, were taken to Paterson’s St. Joesph Regional Medical Center, located approximately seven miles from the accident scene. While the babysitter who had been loading the toddler into the van was not among the injured, the identity of the two victims transported to the nearby trauma center is still unclear.

The public is asked to say Tehillim for Yoel Ozer ben Chaya Malka.
