In the Stephen Raucci trial, Judge Polly Hoye ruled that the Schenectady City School District was a "ruled that the Schenectady school district is a government entity, specifically a unit of Schenectady County government." (¹)

My question is, is Ms DiLeva eligible by law to be employed by two different government entities (Rotterdam Town Board - AND the SCSD) ?
Now, I know previously, Joe Signore held a TB position - and worked for Schenectady County Govt (plumber I believe) .. but the latter was/is not a "decision making position" whereas Ms DiLeva is a school administrator / principal - as well as a decision making town board representative.  

How can she, or CAN she, make individual official decisions for two different municipalities?  There seems to be a major conflict of interest there, IMHO.

Of course she can.

First of all, I don't see how there's any conflict between a school district that is NOT in Rotterdam and the town itself.  Secondly, I can't think of any circumstance where she would be able to exert authority as a board member in a decision that would some how have an impact on Rotterdam or vice versa.

In Raucci's case, as I understand it, he was both boss and union leader, which is an obvious conflict. DiLeva doesn't really have any authority over anyone other than her students, which aren't even from Rotterdam. Even in the unlikely event that a student IS from Rotterdam and she exerts some sort of influence over him/her(like a suspension or something), her decision making power can be over-ruled by the super...and if not the super, the school board, who the super answers to.

If she is somehow in conflict, then Mike Dellavilla was in uber-conflct when he served on both school and town board. But even there, as a single vote, he didn't really have any decision making power and could simply recuse himself if ever there was a conflict.

Of course she can.

     How many State employees are on City/Town/County boards? Too many to list. The issue is will she recluse herself on City School issues. On the Rotterdam board that is not a problem.

constantino was a teacher at mohon and the supervisor.

Ok, was just wondering.  Thx.

So if there are rotterdam parcels in the city school taxing district
Can she vote on the assessment roll?
Wasn't she going to change that item???

Mike Della Villa is president of schalmont school board while his time on tb.
