To your point.........look how great the dems are doing on the town board? Where is the dems town clerk? Where is the dems als $$$ that rightfully belongs to the taxpayers? How many attorneys does rotterdam need???
Stupid? No....shamefully pathetic!
Hey dvr........it's lent....remember?
Mr. Martin and Mr. Calder are doing a great job on the Town Board. The other two individuals who claim to be Democrats have been a great disappointment .. and I can assure you that I will not support either of them in the future for any office.
Where is the ALS $$$ that Tomassone and the Republcians let slip by ?? And you know that I have said all along that the Town Board should sign an ALS agreement with BOTH Mohawk and REMS .. and collect the money from BOTH -- but wait .. Mr. Del Gallo and Mr. Godlewski REFUSE to do that -- so blame them .. not me.
As for the attorneys - I believe the other two needed to go and the new law firm needed to come on board. I will leave it at that.

No, it is private (as they plot what to do next to the town.)
"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."

The entire rotterdam town board should be and must be replaced. It has been a disaster since day one. From an incompetent supervisor, that the dems rallied, campaigned and supported, to nd's soprano style incompetence, that the dems rallied, campaigned and supported, to BG who should have retired years ago, that the dems, rallied, campaigned and supported, to wc who is taking his orders from tj hooker, that the dems rallied campaigned and supported to mm who makes his decisions bases on the direction of the wind, that the dems rallied, campaigned and supported, to an awol town clerk, who is supported by the dem party, to missing hundreds of thousands of als money, that the dems are not pursuing............and the corrupt list goes on and on!
The rotterdam dems have failed rotterdam like no other in history!!!! If rotterdamians are so dumb enough to vote another dem into office.........then you all get what you deserve....more laughter from the other side of rotterdam's town boarders!

Not the entire Town Board...and two of those "Dems" are Conservatives...regardless of what ballot line they run on.
In one of your recent posts you made it sound as though the "incompetent" Supervisor was now a hero for not marching to the beat of the Party drum...which is it?
Is ND incompetent because of her "soprano style"....or is she just incompetent...and how so?
I also believe that MM, like ND, bases his decisions on what he believes is right...I have seen nothing to suggest otherwise....I think his voting record would be much more one sided if this were the case....they look at things on a case by case basis and do what they think is best and fair.
I do agree that WC takes his orders from TJ...that could be another entire thread.
As for the awol Clerk, last I knew ND did not have the votes to takes whatever measures are legally allowed to limit the losses being incurred by that Clerk.
The Conservatives on the Board support an audit...trouble is, there is no record of the transactions so it would be all but impossible to account for the $$$...and the Town will never be reimbursed. Yes...PD records would tell us how many ALS calls were dispatched, but we would have no way of knowing which were billed, which were collected and how much.
What we do know is that when it was revealed by the PD Chief, he specifically stated that REMS had been billing for ALS service for "the last four or five years"...during the Tommasone administration. The best the current adminstration can hope for, IMO, is to bring all parties involved in that scam to account, and prevent it from happening again...by making sure that REMS does not have the chance to handle ALS funds...which could be accomplished simply by giving Mohawk the ems contract. That way, even if REMS gets an ALS contract...they will not be dispatched to most or any of the ems/transport calls and therefore would not be able to bill for services they didn't use because they were not the responders/transporters.
To say that this is the "worst in history" based on these items is really stretching it BT...I can think of plenty of other elected representatives that have been far worse and have inflicted very real damages...here and in other towns...names like Kirvin and Constantino come to mind...I remember a certain Republican Supervisor in your town BT who raised taxes a whopping 33%! The voters in your town responded by electing all Democrats...granted your town is smart enough not to leave then there too long....but to listen to you, no Democrat should ever be elected for anything...so shame on your electors - lol.

The appropriate regional council may be a party to such hearing. The certificate holder may file with the department, not less than five days prior to the hearing, a written answer to the charges.

That is like going to a BBQ and getting a giant rack of rib and they put a scoop of cole slaw on the side, and you tell everyone you had cole slaw for dinner. THE TICKET WAS A DEMOCRAPIC TICKET. You don't JOIN THE DEMOCRAPIC TICKET AFTER BEING A REPUBLICAN ELECTED OFFICIAL AND NOT GIVE IT ANY THOUGHT. THAT IS UTTER FLIP-FLOPPING AND BETRAYAL. YEAH, I KNOW THERE WAS OBAMA WORSHIP AND THE COPS LOVE OBAMA AND WANT TO BE ON HIS ELECTORAL TEAM WHICH IS DEMOCRAP SO THAT IS WHY THE COPSERVATIVES WANTED TO JOIN THE DEMOCRAPS IN ERADICATING THE REPUBLICAN PARTY. THEY WANTED A CO-DICTATORSHIP WITH NO OPPOSITION. AND SHE WAS PART OF THAT. SHE JOINED THE DEMOCRAP TEAM. PERIOD. YOU CAN'T SOFT PEDAL THAT.

Exactly! The cons have been in lock step with the dems for the last few years. Everyone knows that!! The electorate, and rightfully so, considers a con a dem and a dem a con! That is a given. So while the dems are beginning to lose credibility....the cons will follow suit.
And for the record, rotterdamians never really knew ND. Most thought she was a dem since she ran on the REVITALIZE ROTTERDAM DEM TICKET. She was part of it and blame will fall on her equally! That is rotterdam!!
Rotterdamians are sick and tired of being sick and tired with rotterdam politics as usual. They are sick and tired of hearing the same names, seeing the same faces over and over and over again. There is a different electorate out there....they will just vote them out!! We already saw that on a national level.
