What Anita fails to acknowledge, or perhaps she is unaware....this 'banquet service' will be catered by the 'chosen few'. It is just another arm or 'business building' and 'greasing hands' for the 'chosen few'.
So true. No one is in favor of this farce. It will also cause a domino effect among Downtown businesses racing to lower their assessments. If Key Bank is sold for $150,000 then everyone elses property is over assessed. And the Mayor thinks this is a great thing? Only in Schenectady. The arts and drunks city.
The mayor only gets his picture taken and walks the dog, he is not the mayor. He is too busy accepting awards for his financial successes in Las Vegas. Has anyone seen their tax bills? Now Metroplex wants to come to Rotterdam!
This is what ST tried so hard to combat. Now I understand Glenville is in the process of starting their own IDA. While we just keep pouring our tax money into a blackhole.
Even the usual defenders of SOS and the DEM rubber stamps are up in arms over the latest Proctor's fiasco. Everyone with sense is saying TOO MUCH!! First run what you have profitably? Nah, take it off the tax rolls and worry about it later.
Except for the Mayor, Morris and Death Ray it is hard to find anyone who thinks the nonprofit/taxpayer take over of Key Bank for a "catering hall" is a good idea. It's so bad the Gazetto editors had to try and stop the growing cries from the overtaxed sheeple.
Don't kid yourself Susie S and her dem playmates gave this the thumbs up. As someone else stated previously this is payback to reward dem supporter and we're paying for it.
When will SACC TV be up and running under with it s new directors?
Never. Sad-SACC under McCarthy is history. Another Morris production where the sheeple will be fed endless crapola about Proctor's "offerings", commie programming from afar and the latest feeds for elites at the former Key Bank. Let them eat gelato?
This doesn’t seem all that odd to say or to write, but it’s a fairly remarkable thing. Since our renovation and expansion, we are rarely closed. Meaning, our doors are locked to the public maybe three times a year.
Admittedly, those days are often holidays, with Thanksgiving and Christmas typical, but even those days are not absolute should a major event be in the building.
Tomorrow, it’s not really about Easter as much as it’s about activity. We scheduled nothing, have no major show running the following week, did a major electrical project today and decided that giving a rare building wide day closed made sense.
For me, there is a kind of relief with the building closed. I take time off from the facility and am not a worrier. Plus, the staff at Proctors is fabulous, but knowing that folks are not in the building, that emails will be low, that an injury is unlikely, and that everyone I work with is doing something of their own choosing is simply a wonderful feeling.
Good day to all. Especially the folks who make Proctors great.
