Metrograft was also to help housing prices? Another failure.

    According to the Capital District Realtors-Schenectady County housing prices TANKED 10% more than any other county in the Capital District! But this is a national problem? Really? Down 10% while Montgomery went up. Home buyers are avoiding record Schenectady COUNTY taxes in droves.

a lot has to do with what surad did to hurt the county by going against the new team and being against the team effort at the metroplex that is why the bussinesses and business men like peter G and evan and raucci and of course franny want HIM OUT NOW

I just traveled over to Massachusetts this past weekend...and paid LOWER taxes...in a place they call TAXACHUSETTS!  They call THEM overtaxed and they charge less taxes than we do (I was in West Springfield, with a 5% sales tax).

Don't let Mass fool you. Just like Fla.. They say there are no taxes....but just see what ya pay to register your car! SHOCKING! I realize that Fla. has a great tourist industry, but all states make up their costs through taxation in different areas.

NYS just happens to tax EVERYTHING!!!!!
