I told you people months ago DM would be the clerk. MM you really have to find a new profession. Hard to believe even YOU could be surprised by DM as TC!
Oh and one more thing....The fact that DM is even being considered for the Town Clerk position has me puking in my shoes, especially what her that moron Ron Severson said at the last TB meeting about the hiring of the deputy town clerk. It boggles my mind.
Gee, thanks. Now I'm sick too... We are all headed for He$$ in a handbag...
There are lots places that you all could donate your time to.
Me and my wife donate our time every sunday at the mission. We drive people to church who otherwise can't. We help old ladies cross the street. We help rescue kittens from trees. We donate to the animal shelter. We give 10% of our income to our church. So you're singing to the wrong choir here honey!
And through all this, we have enough God given common sense to know what's right and what's wrong.....what's illegal and what's legal. We thankfully have a good mental, physical and spiritual balance. And we are clearly independent thinkers. Not puppets or water boy/girls for any political party!
And the pool story.....absolutely the truth! And it continues yet today. It's called 'buying votes'!

Go Get em bumblethru!! Right, wrong, legal, illegal this TB has no clue!! As for buying votes, after Sync realty illegally moved in those residents & contributed to the Supervisor's campaign, they were registering people to vote as their leases were being signed!! Pathetic!! Then AB used them as human shields to play on the simple-minded TB (GP excluded) to break all the laws, change the zoning without even ONE stipulation!! This can NEVER be fixed...!!
If you told me that story about the City of Albany in the 60's I would give it credence. The Dem. Committee in albany doesn't even COUNT Rotterdam as part of them. Hard to believe Dems in Rotterdam would even think of buying votes. Constantino was a loser.
Glad to see you are doing some good deeds. Glad you are doing something for someone else. Wondering what you have learned from those you help besides that you don't want them to have healthcare, and you want them to get a job and get off govt help and your G-d is the only G-d. Just wondering...

I have learned that it is much more rewarding to give out of personal 'want' as opposed to being 'forced'. I've learned that giving a hand up is more successful that giving a hand out. I've learned that the government is not the answer to 'need'. I've learned that it is the liberal socialist progressive movement that has created a sub-culture that is being held down by the liberal socialist government hand outs. I have learned that the government hand outs are unsuccessful to say the least. I have also learned that 'having less than some' is a matter of fact and a part of life and sometimes a personal choice. We do not enable those that 'chose' to live in a liberal socialist created sub cultured life style.
We have learned that there is a MAJOR DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE TWO!

Come on Mary, don't be so hard on them. They clearly are not independent minded. They are great little foot solders for the cause of the party. They are just the water boys/girls that promote the sh!t! They allow themselves to be used to serve the party and not the people! That my friends is liberal socialism at it's best! And it is alive and well in rotterdam!

Wow, some people use words on this board like they have no clue what they mean. You can't by definition accuse a TB of only helping its friends and then call it liberal socialism at it's best. The serious lack of the education in some people is astounding. I swear the new thing in the republican party is to use false statements to scare people. Why can't an argument or disagreement use actual proof or provide facts anymore? I don't blame the poster, he is naively following his republican brotherhood into the path of senility.
The country used to move down a road of progress with two parties side by side one or the other leading at one time or another. Now, the republicans seem to be driving off the road into extremist country. Can stop a vote from going your way? FILIBUSTER it. Screw rational thought anymore the republican party is now voting as a block that won't engage in reasonable discussion without screaming key words like 'LIBERAL, SOCIALIST AGENDA, DEATH COMMITTEE" or other crazy non-sense.
If you consider the government helping people get health care socialism, why aren't you fighting the government giving the people freedom of speech? Hell, how dare the government give people the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness?
As for Sync realty moving people in and registering them to vote, sorry that did not happen. ALL parties were invited to the property to meet with residents and speak concerning the zoning issues. Slime ball GP couldn't bother to show his face, but you think he has history of being around and knowing whats going on? Why does no one respond to the fact that people lived on that property for the last 60 years? And GP is going to ask for a environmental impact study? Are you f**king serious?
Please someone address why not one opponent to the Sync re-zoning will actually address the issue honestly. People can complain how the TB did it, or the fact that the TB went against the planning board. But no one wants to say why they went against it. No one wants to defend that position. Why? It is unsound and hollow.
As for Kathleen Spring's letter to the planning board, it is to my knowledge she heard Sync was advertising to NYC people to move to the apartments and doesn't want that kind of people moving here. And I'm sorry Cole realty has had the same opportunity to do this for years, as they are very similar to Sync in many ways.
Stein with all due respect, I think your comments would appear slightly more valuable if you could make them without dropping F-Bombs. This should be a family-friendly site, and frankly your language is not appreciated.

Here's another angle we can look at this. Why didn't Rotterdam's previous town boards rezone the property from light industrial to residential while it was being used as military housing? As those on the Town Board who voted yes on the rezoning, their explanation for their vote was because people are living there, and it's always been used as residential. Well, people were living there for 60 years, why only now do we decide to rezone? The obvious reason is because there was an understanding that for a community to sustain balanced growth, you need to maintain a balance of land available for commercial, residential, and industrial zoning.
It amazes me that a Town Board can make this decision on the heels of the Golub zoning change which they all agreed that this Golub expansion encroaches on the residents of Dolan Drive. Then then they go ahead and reduce the amount of land available zoned light industrial adjacent to the Golub Corporation.
This current Town Board is very short sighted. To me, it looks as if they just reduced the amount of light industrial zoning for future business growth in Rotterdam and Schenectady County. IMHO

You're kidding me right?
And you have the nerve to question the education level of the forum members. That has to be the most incoherent statement I've read in a long time. When the federal government FORCES the citizens of the United States to buy health insurance or be fined by the IRS if they do not - that is not called freedom.
I have read the Constitution, and nowhere could I find the "right to health insurance" in it. You might want to take a peek at the tenth amendment also.
Incoherent? You seem to understand it fine. Of course I will question someone's education when they are spouting off insanity, maybe I should have questioned the poster's sobriety instead?
Lots of things aren't in the Constitution, that's why our forefathers were smart and allowed changes to our government. If you don't have health care now and you are sick, you go the ER or tough it out. Either way, ERs are expensive and if you have a serious issue toughing it out will just mean bigger problems in the future. Now if you don't pay at the ER they still have to see you. The hospital eats those costs, or what happens more often then not, they pass those costs on to insurance companies in the form of raised rates. Insurance companies then pass those costs on to you, in the form of higher co-pays and higher premiums.
So as I see it, the insurance companies are robbing me to pay for the costs they are getting hosed with. And the hospitals have to pass on the costs or close shop. So if you don't have insurance, you are basically taking my money when you get sick. So give everyone health care, and what middle class is left can have a real choice in health care, take what your employer provides or pay for government backed health care.
As for the F-bomb, sorry about that. It sometimes is helpful to add some color to your language to get a point across. Being I didn't see that under the rules for posting (which may be there) I went ahead.
