Tompkins Excavating in the News! Persistence paid off for Stacey Tompkins Took her 11 years to get state designation Peekskill Herald By Sunny Harris It was all about the numbers for Stacey Tompkins. The president of Tompkins Excavating, a local site development company, knew that women make up only 11 percent of the construction workforce in the heavily male-dominated industry. What she didn’t expect was that it would take her 11 years to receive certification from New York State as a Minority and/or Women-led Business Enterprise (MWBE). Under Tompkins leadership, the company grew their annual revenues from $1 million to over $12 million. Tompkins Excavating was responsible for site development of Peekskill’s fire station as well as the rebuild of the former Lincoln Mercury dealership that was destroyed by a fire years ago and is now the current commercial strip that includes AutoZone and Family Dollar on Main Street. Her other company, a development firm called West Shore Enterprises, just constructed six new rental units off Vail Avenue.

Congratulations to Dr. Marsha Gordon and John Ravitz of The Business Council of Westchester on being named #13 in the City and State NY's 2024 Hudson Valley Power 100. From the article When Westchester businesses are seeking guidance or experts in the policy sphere, they rely on Marsha Gordon and John Ravitz. The influential duo shapes the priorities of the Business Council of Westchester. This year, that has included convening industry leaders to talk about artificial intelligence’s impact on business and launching its Clean Energy Action Coalition to represent businesses’ interests as the state’s energy landscape evolves. Gordon has headed the council for 23 years; Ravitz previously served in the Assembly for 12 years. https://lnkd.in/e2gy3-Dp Photo by Cathy Pinsky #westchesterbiz #cityandstateny #businessadvocacy #economicdevelopment #innovation #AI #renewableenergy #leadership
