Would those in agreement with the casino on ALCO land, would you instead prefer it around the corner
from YOUR house?

I am not a fan of casinos, but can having one In Schenectady really make things any worse? They shouldn't do it on the ALCO land though. They should tear down the hill, or MP and put it there. Could probably even do a hotel with some nice views.

the jobs aren't close to what would be non-subsidized wage makers....especially for single parents

there will have to be a casino daycare or maybe the churches would like to buddy up with them and offer free daycare?

Actually - if the casino weren't to be built at the ALCO site - there are several good locations for it IN the Town of Rotterdam.  I have absolutely NO problem with having a casino in the neighborhood.

There's already a bordello and flop house on the far end of Guilderland Ave, put it out there, they'll appreciate the traffic and added business.


We are advised NOT to judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a few lunatics.   Funny how that works.

In your neighborhood, huh?   "Auntie, can I have an advance on my allowance so I can go to the casino?   OH COME ON, PLEEEEEEEASE CAN I" stomping feet, "YOU'RE MEAN!"




Optimists close their eyes and pretend problems are non existent.  
Better to have open eyes, see the truths, acknowledge the negatives, and
speak up for the people rather than the politicos and their rich cronies.

More than happy to sell my City property for a casino. There are no other buyers. Maybe Brucker and Erickson can establish casinos too? We should be so lucky as to have a casino in this County.
We don't need no high paying jobs, entertainment nor tax revenue not squeezed out of property owners-no? Flood zone, nuclear reactor site, ALCO is not going to get a casino. Where are the Section 8
apartments announced 5 years ago? I agree with DVOR and support a casino anywhere in the Capital District. Realize the nit wits prefer listening to Atlantic City interests.

I didn't know that your house was on the far end of Guilderland Ave.
