The engineer had to go because they didn't want to hear about the problems in the town that they were ignoring that will come back and bite them in the butt. They put in a yes man that told them what they wanted to hear and wouldn't make any waves. You reap what you sow. Poor planning is what is causing many of the towns problems.

Not asking about rotterdam's dysfunctional politics!! Just wanna know when the Schenectady's water supply will be depleted!!! There must be documentation 'somewhere'!! How much time is left? When should all developments that use water come to a halt? When should folks stop showering and drinking and cooking with water....or flush their toilets?

If rotterdamians are placed on a water restriction schedule....what about those car washes? Can't water your lawn, but hell you can take your car to the car wash every single day if you so choose. Should folks be restricted to one shower/bath every other day?

Let's get real here folks....k?

so in other words we have to pay more so the cop brass can get more $$$. like last year

You'd think, if they can tell how much CO2 was around 650,000 years ago, someone should be able to answer this question, right?

H2O is a solvent....add to that SI and GE additives and I think we have zombie water....

Taking more money and giving it to the local government is counterproductive.

More taxes will solve nothing when you must first pay a team of self proclaimed geniuses to decide what, when and where to purchase, what they feel, that you need.

You don't need to pay someone to decide that you wish to keep your own money and stop paying professional nepotistic spenders.

So now Rotterdam is raising its water bill...

There's talk of raising the water bill and also the brush pick-up.

It's about time...still a great deal compared to everywhere else.  Plus, people tend to use the brush pickup as a trash service so I can see that.

hey......somebody's gotta pay for the cops and government officials bloated salaries and benefits...........THE TAXPAYERS!!!

and all while their homes are losing value weekly as taxes/fees increase!

Sounds just like schenectady!!!

WHAT IS THE VALUE FOR TAXES PAID.....

remember fees are EXEMPT from the TAX CAP

soon there will be high fees
for calls to the dispatch station
"we will need you Credit Card number, expiration, and security code before we transfer you to a dispatcher"
RPD when they arrive will draw their town provided cell phone insert the "square" and CHA CHING - swipe you credit card for service
then and only then will they proceed

word has it Chief Hamilton is working on a Police Insurance Plan for residents via his LLC
