It would be a good goal.....look up and see where you live....take pride.....the politician leaders aren't doing such a hot job at that part.....but a 'north star' of sorts would do good for us sheeple......a community that ALL can see..........Rotterdam is Rotterdam because we are....no longer a GE stronghold.....we need to put our boots on folks.......let's get with it or we will be the blight that is marching across this county........
...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......

DO IT THEN AND BRING BACK THE PRIDE WE HAD UNDER JIMMY C AND JOHN KIRVIN AND THROW THE REPUBS OUT ALREADY OVER HERE

The town had a good feeling then and we need to get that good feeling back and HE NEVER interferred with the police and put the politics in things either so give him credit and I never saw him do what Stevie T is doing either.
I always liked the idea of having the town name on the tower too. But I was surprised to learn at a meeting in Rotterdam Junction discussing the new water tower that painting the towers costs several hundred thousand dollars. I'd have to check my notes, but the number thrown out by the Supervisor was pretty large when the subject of painting came up. I think Kevin was there - maybe he remembers better than me.
If the number is a large one, then I can do without it. It's just not a priority. We have so many other more pressing matters that money could be spent addressing.
Yes, I was there, but I don't remember how much it was. I know it was quite a bit, but not really sure how much.
So far, the Obamite lady who demands this was the biggest supporter of John Paolino other than his wife and kids, and never misses a chance to tell the conservative republicans board members how wrong they were.
Um...conservative Republicans Joe? Is the conveniently timed use of this adjective an introduction to Conservative Party endorsements for you and your soon-to-be Republican running mates? Creators of unnecessary taxes are not conservatives... but then again, the Conservative Party Executive Board just isn't inclined to endorse conservatives.
Some people just don't get that a public official or any other human being will not agree with you 100% of the time. I imagine that it would be frustrating and almost comical to believe that some people who might agree with you 90% of the time will make a huge deal out of the fact that they can't get someone to go the other 10%. I know in my own life, I can't even get my mother to agree with me 100% of the time, so I don't know why you would expect Joe S or Angelo S or Steve T or anyone else in the universe to always agree with you and go down the line on each and every issue. That reminds me of the guy who never has a girlfriend because he is waiting for the combination of the perfect woman to come into his life- the combination of Miss America, the smartest woman alive, and the girl next door. It aint' never gonna' happen.
NOT TO BE OFF TOPIC-BUT- As I break the numbers down, assisting the REMS has a cost of 3 cents per day per average homeowner in town. If that makes for more ambulance service considering that Mohawk backs up the calls and NO ONE EVER HAS TO EVER WORRY ABOUT GETTING AN AMBULANCE IN ROTTERDAM, then I think most officials would want to keep it alive. Mohawk is a fine private sector operation who most people respect, I would think anyone who knows anything would not have a problem with them over-all, or if they made a profit from their business as they are entitled. However contracting with REMS and forming a taxing district are 2 big distinct things and one requires a large jump to the other.
EVEN JOHN MERTZ supported ASSISTING and CONTRACTING WITH THEM to see to their continuance. As to forming a taxing district and a union, I am not so sure that making them a MUNICIPAL OPERATION WOULD BE A GOOD THING. They are an independent hometown not for profit at this point and trying to rebuild and stabilize that operation has been a priority of the new management and assisting in that goal is the priority of the current administration. I have not heard ONE official say they want them to be part of a municipal entity or organize as municipal workers. NOT ONE, so as to automatically accusing Joe S, or anyone else of wanting that (in exchange for 3rd party support or otherwise) is %100 false, and a wrong assumption, Gadfly.
In addition to this appearing here, this will be posted in the correct thread as well.
"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."
