Funny, I've driven on other high traffic roads in the area and not nearly as many potholes, or as deep. Why you ask? Because they don't hot patch the roads every fu(king year and say it is fixed. Patching the roads is a TEMPORARY FIX. Properly managed municipalities actually REPAVE the roads that are peppered with patched potholes because they understand that roads patched in the spring come up like a cork in the winter time, and the pothole is now deeper than the year before.
Schenectady cuts corners on infrastructure as they stand up at council meetings and demand pay raises. They are a bunch of crooks in Schenectady. You should come and see for yourself some time.
You are absolutely correct. They also shouldnt pave when it is pouring rain locking in the water, Schenectady does. they also shouldnt cold patch over a mud puddle, schenecytady does. They shouldnt allow contractors to install of new natural gaslines in December when it is below zero , allowing them to undermine the sidewalks or relay them, Schenecyady does. They shouldnt pour concrete after the temperature is below freezing, schenectady does. They shouldnt allow stucko to be installed on a county building when it is below zero after previous problems, Schenectady does. they shouldnt use the largest bucketloader known to man to scrape 2 inches of snow off the streets, Schenectady does. They shouldnt allow them to ram a backhoe into the expensive curved granite on the islands, Schenectady does.

Don't bother Mikechristine, you asked every alias of his the same questions and never received a response and you never will. His posts make him look stupid and the fact he can't stand behind one user name and debate shows he has no balls and no facts to back it up.
Do you think he is an imaginary friend of DV?
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.
Funny funny funny. The ultra-conservatives rant and rant and rant. When you guys have some evidence and proof to back up your rants, then I'll consider evaluating it.
There are people here in Omaha whose house's have been on the market for over a year- join the club.
And I'm sure you can provide some evidence of those houses? You can QUICKLY provide links to the actual ads that show the history when it was listed, the multitudes of price reductions, and that the houses are empty?
We can provide you evidence of that fact in Schenectady, showing that the asking prices are AT LEAST 30% lower than the city claims the houses would sell, we can show you lots of houses, we can show you that the actual sale prices are much lower than the city claims the houses will sell for, and we can prove to you that the city taxes people at the prices that the city claims they would sell for, and NOT the real prices that they sell for.
There are already many many many posts on these boards for evidence.
DO you also9 need evidence to proves that the dems have given their crony millionaires and billionaires such as Galesi, Paul Mitchell, the Hiltons, Mallozzis are exempt from paying property and school taxes?
Well?

We are advised NOT to judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a few lunatics. Funny how that works.
NYS is in a death spiral - chasing taxpayers out, few emigrating in... Growing demand for entitlements. We're not quite Detroit, but we are heading in that direction.
And you can bet those aren't senior citizens moving to Florida, the one comment nails it, NY will turn into what is Schenectady.
