Hell...a park? How about doing something about those taxes some are paying in the junction? Some are beyond outrageous! I'm shocked that more people aren't filing article 78's!! A park won't help lower the taxes out there.

quality by who's standard? value by what standard? swallowing taxes? I'm feeling a bit anorexic with a touch of failure to thrive......

Be careful what you wish for? Excluding the Jct, the rest of rotterdam has developments coming out of their a??!! Let me see now.....from walmart, to a gazillion MFH's, to railex, to the price chopper freezer, to fedex, to the heldeburg medows development, to condo's......and rotterdam's taxes, both property and school taxes continue to rise!!!
Guess how that's working for those rotterdamians?????

And you're looking for quality??? Forgetaboutit!! The metroplex, which brings with it Susan Savage, Judy Dagostino and the rest of the county vultures, are running the show now!. The BEST you will get is a gin mill or a non-profit!!! And they will jam it down your throats!! And your taxes will STILL go even HIGHER!!! I promise you this!!!

but you have a choice as do I.....the town proper will become like the city.....and worse because there is no foundation for economic
growth....IE: hamburg street and the likes.....this is MY idea of economic stimulus---build it and they will come, hand it out and there's
sh!t to clean up.......NO PILOT, NO GRANTS ETC ETC.........nanny nanny nanny......well if you think park is value for your McMansion
then it IS subjective....and 'the subjects' should be listened too not talked to by the electorate......we need to stop building subjective
podium pucks and make REAL growth and stimulus......

Rotterdam Junction has been given a BOA Study Grant  (brown fields oppurtunity)  and we (the study
group that I am a part of) are looking at ways to rehabiliate some of the brownfield sites in that part
of Rotterdam.   There will be public input forums and more news about this over the next few months.

DVOR, if I'm able to attend I will be there, but I don't currently know what my schedule is going to look like for the rest of the year.  Please keep us updated.  Do you have a list of the brownfields that you are currently looking at?  I assume the first one on the list would be Curry Road Shopping Plaza.

The brownfield study is only for Rotterdam Jct - the area between Route 103 and SI .. between the river
and the Thruway.  There are several including the old "Bonded Concrete site".
