Another reason to vote out every DEM that supported this idiotic "plan". If you don't have money for rent you shouldn't be in business. Just like if you don't have a down payment you shouldn't be purchasing a residence. There are no legitimate City purchasers so Ba-Ba manufactures them? Only in Schenectady.
"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."
Just a new place for the scum to rob and deface!!!!
Both 'hills'........Hamilton and mt. pleasant/bellevue..... have some decent hard working people who live there and THEY can't put a dent in the scumbag's crime. What makes these dimwits think that giving 2 years free to a few buildings will make a difference?
GET RID OF THE SCUM!! LOWER THE WELFARE BENEFITS!!!

Heard the Fulton County "planner" wants to rent out the first banana stand.
SCHENECTADY Business owners pan offer by city BY KATHLEEN MOORE Gazette Reporter
Free rent sounds good — but the fine print in the city’s offer turned off several business owners last week. At least five prospective business owners met with the city’s auctioneer to discuss city-owned properties they could rent for free. They were dismayed to learn that they would still be expected to bring the buildings up to code, putting potentially thousands of dollars into a building they wouldn’t own. There are some benefi ts: they wouldn’t pay taxes, and if their business went under, they would be able to walk away without dealing with the hassles of selling their property. But the cost would still be far more than zero. Auctioneer Randy Passonno emphasized that the city would make no repairs and would not maintain the buildings. Even trash collection and snow removal are not included. “The city cannot bring it up to code for you. That must be part of your proposal,” he said. “The city will not be the landlord, basically.” One man, who had considered opening a restaurant, responded angrily. “What kind of offer is that? It doesn’t help the renter,” said Mohammed Wakeed, who owns the Taj Mahal restaurant. City Councilwoman Barbara Blanchard agreed with him. When contacted later, she said she didn’t want renters to pay for full repairs and code improvements. She’s asked Acting Mayor Gary McCarthy to remove those requirements for at least one commercial site. “Maybe all the commercial buildings,” she said. “We can’t get that much for any of these. It would be better to use them to spark interest in a neighborhood.” Metroplex Development Authority Ray Gillen said that some business owners strongly prefer renting, while others insist on owning. The main advantage to renting, he said, is that the business owner doesn’t have to worry about building repairs. “It’s just like renting or owning a house,” he said. “Do you want the headaches, the maintenance?” ......................................>>>>...........................>>>>.............................http://www.dailygazette.net/De.....r01702&AppName=1
