Did anyone notice they dropped a cool $120,000 on new cop cars?

I think this was the agenda item where a resident tried to ask a question and RG abruptly told him that it wasn't the proper time to ask questions.

It was clear to some that there is clearly a power struggle going on with this tb. Bob 'no change' was out and out rude and arrogant to say the least. I even thought FDG was a bit short and rude when he questioned a duanesburg resident on why it took her so long to contact him. Kinda like saying...'well sorry, you waited too long'. THEN to add insult to injury....FDG votes 'yes' for the golub zone change on 'neil's word'. WOW! And FDG's a business man? Betcha he doesn't do the books or run the show. It appears that he is the one who digs holes and fills them with water!

The entire ND incident definately caused a strain with the other tb members. It is quite obvious that the dems, such as 'bob no change', is used to being a puppet and expect everyone else to be the same. However, I can see where 'bob no change' should continue to remain to be the good little puppet he has always been....cause he sure as hell ain't no leader. None of them are...but they clearly all want to be. IMHO

there were a few rifts. Didn't see or hear anything about fist fights.

Dysfunction at its finest.  

My thanks to Joann for capturing this priceless footage!   We need to keep this video in our files for use during the campaign for the next election.

Given the circumstances I must give credit to Nikki to table the motion,  on the golub issue

I frown upon the fact the town attorney had to be repeatedly asked for the proper wording for the tabling
i feel the attorney is there to represent the board as a whole and while they sit at the dais as town board members

This whole show should leave an imprint in both Mr.Cooke's and Mr. Bucanan's(sp) mind as to how not to win an
election as a party - there is a lot to be said for leaving some first hand knowledge at the dais.

The result of this show could have lasting implications that leave rotterdam 20 years behind glenville and malta
again

as the population of rotterdam becomes younger as it was some 50 years ago both parties will have a very difficult
time with forward motion as the board may become less party and more individual

as for the sync problem

let the business pay for all costs related to a proper sewer hookup - this means if the existing lines to the plant are
too small sync should pay for the upgrade

Let the town set a fair rate to each appt - for service only

This town should also look at how a CO was issued given the issues and correct the problem with
discipline of town employees or proper legislation to prevent this issue again

It is half-a$$ed work ethic that is failing this town - it started 50-60 years ago and continues today

It must end - Notaries, Handicapped tags, Inspections,  follow up on contractors.....

these comments are based on what little i can see from Joanne's work from the last 24hrs
which i must say far exceeds the town and county's efforts

Admin, Joanne and Others
Thank You very much for fulfilling a request - Awesome!
