what tax bill, DVofR does not directly get one, he only technically has second hand knowledge

Gee, I wasn't sure that everyone on the Forum knew that DVOR DOESN'T OWN PROPERTY IN ROTTERDAM AND CANNOT VOTE TOMORROW!

Just a question???? If the tax district does get voted down how does Mohawk automatically get the contract doesn't have to go out for bid? What about Empire or Rural Metro don't they get a shot at the bid? Or has the town already made a "bid" written specifically for Mcpartland?

I think it will end up going to bid whether the tax district passes or not...and once the Town calls for bids anyone can compete...but I
don't see how anyone else can even come close to the package Mohawk has offered.

Quoted from DemocraticVoiceOfReason

the sewage treatment plant is a town facility on town property  ... if you think it is ok for the anti-REMS sign
to be there ... then next year all the incumbents can put their campaign signs there, too

I haven't been on that part of Mariaville Rd since mid summer .. so I don't know anything about the
campaign signs up there.

Rotterdam should ban all signs. It is the only sane thing to do to save them. Signs do to rotterdamians like what a full moon does to werewolves. Really!

People start stalking signage and acting crazy! They become paranoid and delusional and scary!  They start howling at the signage and the at the humans that put them there.

And then at the stroke of midnight, some signages are MISSING!! OH NO!!   Were they stolen and are being held as hostages? Or perhaps these signages have faced certain death and never to be seen again?

Please help the poor bastard rotterdamians from themselves!! BAN ALL SIGNS BEFORE THEIR FANGS GROW ANY LONGER!!  >

The FACT is that I DO pay taxes  income and sales tax DIRECTLY  and .. I contribute significantly to
helping pay the property tax.
You and your ilk continue to make  harassing personal attacks in an attempt at character assassination
because you KNOW that I am right on the issues and you folks are afraid of the fact that I can point
out everyone of your lies and distortions.

Where I live has NOTHING to do with the issues -- I have lived on my own for many years and I have owned
properties and DO OWN properties in other states.  The FACT is that you and your ilk can only use
harassment and character assassination because you know that I am successfully knocking down every
one of your bogus arguments and attempts to lie and distort the truth.
BTW -- I am doing quite well with my personal investments.

Although I feel your pain, your view of harassment and character assassination appears to be a bit misguided. Stating one's opinion and supporting it with personal facts are not categorized as harassment or assassination. It again appears to be a personal view/opinion and  their personal perception. Ya gotta be thick skinned to be a rotterdamian!!

By the way.....I hear there are robo calls going around rotterdam for the vote tomorrow.

Most of the folks who post here hide behind their screen names - not me - you know who I am and some
of the folks here insist on trying to drag my family and my personal business into the debate.  
The statements made about me are not based on facts.

As for the robocalls -- both sides have been doing them for weeks.

Quoted from DemocraticVoiceOfReason

The statements made about me are not based on facts.

Neither are your claims of Schenectady being safe, prosperous and revitalized.  What's your point?

Vote YES on Tuesday, December 14 --- a human life is worth a lot more than the cost of
a 10 cents per thousand tax.

And you don't call 'democratic voice of reason' a screen name???? In all fairness, you carry some of the responsibility here! You live in rotterdam or God's sake!! The town where everyone is defined by their politics.

You want so desperately to have people see things through rose colored glasses as you do. You fail to recognize and acknowledge that people are PI$$ED! There are very angry people out there who are hurting financially! There are people who see the corruption and have no where to turn.

Schenectady county is going broke in part because of the metroplex. And you wonder why people are pi$$ed at the idea of yet another tax? (ambulance) You are not going to change people's minds by handing out rose colored glasses. These folks have finally taken theirs off and see things in it's true light. They have seen and wished for progress the way you do......why don't you try to understand and see their side now?

These folks don't want an ambulance tax!! Why is that so hard for you to understand?

There are MANY folks who will be voting YES for the tax district  ... Why is it so hard for you to
understand that in a democracy --- when people are asked if they want a new tax district that there
people who VALUE the great service of REMS and are willing to pay 10 cents per thousand to keep it ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Why can't you understand that there are many folks who are pissed off at the anti-REMS folks for lying
about REMS and demonizing the people who support REMS ?     Why can't you understand that there are
many folks who  DON"T WANT  MOHAWK AMBULANCE as their only ambulance provider ??

Why can't you understand that there are many folks who don't want and don't trust Mohawk Ambulance
at all for any reason and under any circumstances ?????????????????????????????????????????????????

Why can't you understand that this is a DEMOCRACY .. and people can disagree with you .. and don't
respect you and your ilk for lying about them and demonizing them because they disagree with you ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
