Quoted from 78
Why should $1M of public revenues be spent to purchase the building so that it can be leased back to Galesi Corp?  Why would Galesi Corporation not want to purchase a property/building located in its own corporate park?

This arrangement spends $1M of public revenue by the Metroplex that cannot be invested to support other projects.  The Gazette fails to provide the important details including those pertaining to the lease agreement.  The reporter (Lamendola) reports that, after the lease is executed, Galesi would put the property back on the tax roll.  How will this occur if the property is owned by the Schenectady Metroplex (a public authority).  Do public authorities pay property taxes on owned facilities? Lastly, it is reported that Galesi Corp will then "allow Metroplex to market it to companies".  

So, as I read the article, taxpayer funds will be used to purchase and own a building that will be leased, at an undisclosed rate, to a developer who will then (sub)lease the property through the marketing efforts of the owner (the Metroplex)?  And, the oppressed taxpaying county residents should accept, without question, Gillen's statement that "Metroplex expects to recoup its $1 million purchase price through the lease agreement".

Does any of this make sense?  Galesi was recently sold the building on lower Broadway that will house DSS.  The developer is rehabilitating the building to lease back it to Schenectady County for an extended period of time.  Meanwhile, the Metroplex is purchasing a building in the developer's corporate park to lease it back to the developer who will sub-lease it to business tenants secured by Metroplex.  Perhaps, the Metroplex and Schenectady County should find a way to exchange the titles to these two properties.

The fleecing of Schenectady County residents continues ...  Demand answers and accountability.

ROTTERDAM — The Galesi Group will invest more than $5 million to build a new 100,000-square-foot warehouse at the Rotterdam Corporate Park, the Schenectady County Metroplex Development Authority announced Wednesday.
"This expansion is great news for the Rotterdam Corporate Park, which is already the largest business park in the Capital Region," Schenectady County Legislature Chairman Anthony Jasenski said in a statement.
Distribution Unlimited, a Galesi-owned company, will use the new warehouse.
"We are pleased to be making this new investment in Rotterdam," said David M. Buicko, chief operating officer of the Galesi Group.
The Metroplex Development Authority will provide a payment in lieu of taxes, or PILOT, agreement for the project under which the company will continue to pay 100 percent of taxes owed on vacant land where the project will be built plus 50 percent of the taxes on the new building, which will increase by 5 percent each year until the building is 100 percent on the tax rolls.

Why gamble with your money when you can let the taxpayers do it for you.

ROTTERDAM — The Galesi Group  
...The Metroplex Development Authority will provide ... or PILOT, agreement ...under which the company ...pay... 50 percent of the taxes on the new building, ....



And again, the financially struggling lower income taxpayers have to pay the taxes of a billionaire, a billionaire who REFUSES to live ANYWHERE IN Schenectady County!



CHEER CHEER!   RAH RAH !!!!

The poor pay the taxes of the filthy rich


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.

Hey....the way i see it these days......don't blame the 'billionaire'......the people in power are brainless, stupid idiots!!!

I don't really focus on the taxpayers....cause i don't live in the city.

it is 'their' battle ground....not mine.

as far as the billionaire.....just doing what they are 'allowed' to do.
