Actually, Masullo was more of a swamp -- they literally built in the swamp -- the Corps of Engineers didn't get involved in reviewing local development projects 45 years ago.  Masullo Estates would never have been built if it had to go through SEQR and Army Corps of Engineers review today.  On the otherhand, the developers of Helderberg Meadows were not allowed to build on actual wetlands - had to set aside a lot of acres that can never be built on, etc.  Overall, it is a better housing development than what would have been built 40 or 45 years ago.
Helderberg Meadows is on sewers.  They also have a storm drainage system.  This is a big improvement over the situation before the development was built.  My family supported the building of that development since it was first proposed (Guildercrest) 45 years ago.  It has been a huge improvement to the neighborhood and the town.  We are looking forward to the full build out when they complete Phase 3 in the woods on the northwest side of Guilderland Avenue.


And decades ago the Army Corps came out and said that there would never be a Guildercrest development there because the water table was too high. But someone got paid because they backed right off and let the road go right through the wetland swamp.

There are no less than six houses built on top of land formally a beaver pond that was 8 feet deep at one end. The town looked the other way the state looked the other way and the crooks plowed it over. The regular band of local crooks is involved in that project including Larned and former town attorney Andrew Brick who worked for the town while the project was in it approval stage and then went to work for the builders attorney after leaving the town job.....wonder about his money trail.

Actually, the Army Corps of Engineers gave its approval.  The project was thoroughly vetted over many, many years.  It is a great improvement for the neighborhood and the town.    

You better be careful naming names and making allegations of people being paid off.

hmmmm....funny but I never thought the issue of someone being 'paid off' was reflective in the post.

how did you come up with that analogy?

but now that you mentioned it.......hmmmmmmmmmm

It is not an analogy - it is a direct response to what someone actually posted. The person who posted very clearly typed "But someone got paid" -- that is an allegation -- and like many of the allegations thrown out on this board, it is careless, unfounded attempt to besmirch the character of others.
