 WHEREAS, It is the custom of this Legislative Body to honor those
enduring individuals and organizations which devote their purposeful
energies to improving the quality and dignity of life of those they
serve, to preserving their heritage, and to fostering pride among them;
and

 WHEREAS, Attendant to such concern, and in full accord with its
long-standing traditions, this Legislative Body is justly proud to honor
Bryant Postell upon the occasion of his designation for special
recognition at the Young, Gifted, and Black Entrepreneurial Awards 20th
Anniversary Gala on Wednesday, February 26, 2025, at Terrace on the
Park, Queens, New York; and

 WHEREAS, The Young, Gifted, & Black (YGB) Entrepreneurial Awards
were established in 2006 by Carl Gray as a platform to spotlight and
celebrate everyday individuals who serve as positive role models,
inspiring their peers through their accomplishments, perseverance, and
contributions; and

 WHEREAS, Carl Gray's vision for the YGB Entrepreneurial Awards has
remained steadfast in ensuring recognition is given to those whose
contributions, though not always highlighted in mainstream media, have a
profound and lasting influence within their fields and society; and

 WHEREAS, Honoree Bryant Postell is a co-owner of Prime 39 in
Lynbrook, and Prime on the Mile in Nautical Mile, Long Island, New York,
with his partners Rocky Jenkins, Neil Bailey, and Rick Riddick; the
restauranteur's story is one of overcoming impediments relating to the
COVID-19 pandemic, resulting in the thriving businesses he is involved
with today; and

 WHEREAS, Bryant Postell had to acquire the necessary permits and
approvals to build out, operate, and convert the restaurant's kitchen
from electric to gas; he was battered by a multitude of roadblocks, but
the support that the Lynbrook community gave to him during this time
offered him the charisma to keep moving forward; and

 WHEREAS, A testament to the American dream, Bryant Postell is a
resilient individual and businessman, finding valuable lessons in moment
of hardship, resulting in the myriad of successes he has achieved today;
and

 WHEREAS, Bryant Postell is the CEO and creator of the Black

resources, networking events, and a variety of other opportunities
through training seminars to other local Black-owned businesses; its
mission underscores its dedication to improving the conditions for
small-business restaurant owners and their staff by seeking partnerships

with organizations committed to providing access to capital for said
businesses, as well as promoting racial equality as a pathway to a more
inclusive economy; and

 WHEREAS, What began as a vehicle to help other business owners who
may be struggling find their way during the pandemic, now serves as a
beacon of hope and valuable resources for all those involved; and

 WHEREAS, A result of hard work and pride, in 2021, Bryant Postell
and his co-owners won the Long Island Choice Award for best new
restaurant, and in 2022, were nominated for best fine dining
establishment; and

 WHEREAS, It is the sense of this Legislative Body that those
individuals and organizations which give positive definition to the
profile and disposition of the communities of the State of New York, do
so profoundly strengthen our shared commitment to the exercise of
freedom; now, therefore, be it

 RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
honor Bryant Postell upon the occasion of his/her designation for
special recognition at the Young, Gifted, and Black Entrepreneurial
