confusing renaissance with schit city and turdville.
Laughing stock of the region and the laugh track is getting louder by the day

At least it's an out of State company but the usual tax exemptions screw any positive news. If they buy a hammer it's sales tax free. WTF! Death Ray does the same BS over and over. Tax giveaways-sales tax
giveaways. Metrograft is the biggest redistribution of wealth from the poor to DEM contributors in NY history. Here's the next DEM "plan". Increase property taxes 20% to pay for the unprivatized County home.
Even Albany County is getting out of the nursing home business. No company will relocate to this DEM ruined cesspool without a huge smear of your tax dollars.

Another positive news piece that proves that Schenectady County is thriving again -- in Renaissance. Can't wait to hear the next major positive news story unveiled shortly.  Schenectady is a great place to live, work and do business.

Can you tell us how much of an increase this will result in to the county's tax base?   Can you provide some supporting examples from the past ten dem years that show how spending tax money has increased the tax base in the city and/or county?


DV's answer to my questions will be DV spewing more nonsense babble.   He has no knowledge or intelligence on matters of property values and tax base with which to provide an answer

Well, DV?    No answer yet?   You can't provide an analysis of the effect on the tax base?    Well?    

I think it's a better thing for young people to move into an area, buy a home they can afford from seniors who don't want it any more, maintain said home and pay e reasonable amount of taxes (reasonable as in just enough to pay for services we receive), and enhance the quality of life for all concerned.
News flash: many people will live in an area and pay taxes even without a job at that location, if they can have a nice house, clean streets, efficient delivery of services, etc. A remodeled downtown doesn't provide any of those things, and the resulting increase in taxes to pay for it exacerbates the problem and deters the young people from settling here. We can see this happening, but you have people who are hoping to profit from the scam trying to pull the wool over our eyes.
Yes, I've said it before, but it sometimes takes a lot of repetition before it sinks in. In fact, teachers used to teach this way back in the day when kids used to graduate knowing how to read at an adult level.
