Why are you calling for John Paolino? Do you need a few hundred square yards of "town waste" - aka- mulch for your house?

No, he is hoping we can reassess everyone higher again so that the taxpayers can spend another million, pay higher taxes, and then get less county sales tax too as a result, thereby resulting in a triple whammy of havoc. Then he will make sure Paolino will spend 20-30 on a new taj mahal facility to wash the pretty town trucks so the taxpayers can REALLY go broke. Here is a guy who never met a taxpayer dollar he couldn't wait to spend or borrow and spend! PDQ, was it that Paolino made your job easier while you were in town hall by getting an outside outfit to do the assessments, or what?
"While Foreign Terrorists were plotting to murder and maim using homemade bombs in Boston, Democrap officials in Washington DC, Albany and here were busy watching ME and other law abiding American Citizens who are gun owners and taxpayers, in an effort to blame the nation's lack of security on US so that they could have a political scapegoat."
If I remember republican Ms. Vellano was the swing vote their Grahm Bonnet. Mr. Paolino was and remains to be a fiscal conservative feared by the repubs. Came out of now where to beat Joe Sigsnore. Get over the reval pal and pay your fair share unlike the Tomassone clan.

this is because Stevie and Johhny boy mertz who were for the reval made the problem PLUS the insulted the leaders over there in the county and this is what we end up with over here
I wonder who they will appoint for Silva's position? I think they should look 'out of the political box' for someone. Perhaps a resident that has a feel for Rotterdam. That may be refreshing!

Does anybody miss Silva? Can see why Krats lose town election after election if this is their ideal candidate. Look for a pick inside the box who will upset all the right people.

John Silva, Town of Rotterdam board member, announced his resignation via e-mail to Town Supervisor Steven Tommasone on Monday, Jan. 19.
He said his reason for resigning is that his consulting business is growing more rapidly than he had expected, and with it has come a need to travel all over the country, from California to New Jersey. Silva said his travel schedule would have caused him to miss a number of Town Board meetings scheduled through at least April.
Tommasone said that he wishes Silva his best and hopes that he is “very successful in his future endeavors.”
He said that, from conversations he had with Silva, he knew that his consulting business was doing well, and that he’s happy for Silva’s success, and understands that he doesn’t have enough time to commit to the Town Board of Rotterdam at this time.
“We all have to make decisions. Obviously our primary roles, regardless of whether or not we’re in elected office, are with our families first and foremost. He had to make that decision, and I really enjoyed working with him on the board,” said Tommasone.
He said that he and Silva had a “very open relationship with very open dialogue” and that this was one of the things he admired most about Silva.
“We were able to come to agreements and negotiate what was necessary, and it was always very professional so there’s nothing but good things that I can say about him. We had a good working relationship,” said Tommasone.
In Silva’s letter of resignation, he wrote, “Unfortunately, changes in my professional career, including contract commitments that will require continued travel over the next four months, will force me to miss the majority of Town Board meetings scheduled through at least April.”
In his letter, he continued speaking positively of his time spent serving the town.
“I have truly loved my tenure as a member of the Town of Rotterdam and will miss the opportunity to serve my adopted town,” said Silva.
He noted that he didn’t think it was fair to the residents of his community to not have four active board members present at meetings.
“Resigning effective March 1, 2009, should afford the supervisor and remaining Town Board members ample time to select a suitable interim replacement,” said Silva.
He closed his letter by saying that it had been a pleasure working with all of the members of the Town Board, the supervisor and officials of Schenectady County and the “other dedicated members of Rotterdam’s elected and appointed municipal staff.”
The Town Board will appoint someone for the remaining term, and then in November, an official replacement will be elected and the appointed member will have the option of running.
Tommasone said that he believes whoever receives the least number of votes will fill Silva’s seat since they will be serving the shortest term.
“Every two years the supervisor and two town board seats are up for election. This year there will be a supervisor’s seat and three board seats up for election because of Silva’s departure,” said Tommasone.

thanks for your vote of confidence, but I assure you that there are those more qualified than I to make these suggestions/decisions/appointments.
