depends on who gets their bid together first

Quoted from Kevin March

5 Corners really isn't a big deal, and there's not much of an issue moving through.  I understand that sometimes the traffic gets backed up, especially on Duanesburg Road, but that, too cycles through.  I agree, 55tbird, it's a matter of understanding how to drive and where you want to go.  I see tractor trailers that come through that have no issue.  

I understand they may be trying to get traffic through quicker, but to take property away from businesses may not be the best thing to do.How closely to the gas pumps will they be taking?  Will there be issues with the location of their underground tanks?  If so, will the town have to pay for the moving of them?  How about the signage for both of these businesses that is close to the corner, and therefore, most likely on land that would be taken.

  I wonder how much they will have to reduce the assessment on either one and/or both of the gas stations, which are currently both assessed at the same value of $325,000 once the size of their properties are decreased.  

Quoted from Kevin March

I'll be interested to see what those other options are.

State Department of Transportation officials could have a roundabout solution for the town’s troubled Five Corners intersection.

you can attend the public meeting in July ...  they are very interested in the public's input in this process

bull--sh!t

Quoted from Shadow

The public voiced their opinion about the Floral Ave Apartment expansion and what the he** good did that do them? Asking the public for their opinion is just part of the dog and pony show that the government goes through before they do what they want.

Quoted from DemocraticVoiceOfReason

The difference between the two is this ----  the Floral Ave Apartment involved  one private citizen proposing a project that required a zone change and a group of private citizens who supported the project   vs. a group of private citizens opposing it   ------- the Town Board acted within the law and based on a specific proposal  .. BTW ..I did NOT agree with the zone change.

The 5 Corners study was proposed by the previous Town Board  ( a GOP town board) and is in the information gathering stage  ---- the current Town Board is not directly involved in the study .. except if they choose to attend the public meetings  .......... at this moment -- a number of options are under study and consideration.

For once - act like a reasonable and intelligent citizen --- and actually inform yourself by attending the public meetings ...  before you open your pie-hole and make stupid derogatory comments.

Quoted from 1216

Who are the group of private citizens who supported the Floral Ave project!?  I'm glad to hear you did not agree with the zone change, but if you really knewall the details of this I don't think you could defend the actions of some members of this board.  This project shouldn't have needed a petition, it should have been voted down based on the density issues and encroachment into an R-1 neighborhood!
