$2000 to see if it would make a great public safety office and more

Between that and the senior ctr we could name it

I thought that idea was floated once - but it wasn't near the "center" of town?

The center of town? How many miles is it from one end of rotterdam to the other? (excluding the jct)
5-6 miles? OH MY!

Actully, the current location of the newest gin mill is where they wanted to move the town offices / police / EMS to.  This would be even farther from where it would need to be.

Godlewski is the demigod of the hamburg street group. It will be named "God Street" soon.


"While Foreign Terrorists were plotting to murder and maim using homemade bombs in Boston, Democrap officials in Washington DC, Albany and here were busy watching ME and other law abiding American Citizens who are gun owners and taxpayers, in an effort to blame the nation's lack of security on US so that they could have a political scapegoat."

Again -- get your facts straight ---  the other proposal for a new town hall and  police station was Curry Road Shopping Center    NOT    the old Capitol Plaza.

Maybe you should remember some facts every once in a while and not denounce everything that some people bring.  Maybe back up some of your comments with facts.

Whether it was an official proposal or not, it was a proposal that was brought to the public... and THAT'S a FACT!

Quoted Text

Town should use Capitol Plaza for own business

    Re Aug. 1 article, “Walgreens backs out of Capitol Plaza”: Since Walgreens has definitely decided not to purchase Capitol Plaza on Curry Road, many residents of Rotterdam are of the opinion that the town should consider purchasing this property for the construction of a new, centrally located, state-of-the-art public safety building that would house the Rotterdam Town Court and police station.
    Anyone who visits the courts in surrounding towns in our county or adjacent counties can easily see that our present facilities are antiquated, insufficient and a fire trap, as well as being dangerous to the litigants, attorneys and court staff. Our town court, police and residents deserve much better.
    I am asking that the town board consider purchasing the property to construct a public safety building that we can be proud of, one that would take us out of the 18th century and bring us into the 21st century.

A suggestion in a Letter to the Editor is NOT a proposal ... just a suggestion.  So to say it was a proposal is not a fact.

It is a fact that several sites have been or are being considered for a Municipal Center -- the V Stream property, the Curry Road Shopping Plaza and the old Grand Union ....   at one time the "Burdeck St triangle" was even under consideration.

Sorry, I guess I'll have to look somewhere else for a definition of proposal.  Could you tell me the definition?

Here's what dictionary.reference.com states it is:
Quoted Text

pro·pos·al   /prəˈpoʊzəl/  Show Spelled
[pruh-poh-zuhl]  Show IPA

–noun
1. the act of offering or suggesting something for acceptance, adoption, or performance.


See, and who was I to think that a proposal and a suggestion were the same.  Just let me know what the actual definition is, PLEASE.  I want to be educated.

What I am saying is that .. it was just a suggestion in a letter to the editor and was NEVER considered seriously as an option.      Capitol Plaza would not have been big enough for a town hall and police station.

"Grand Union site" has been been tossed around for a Town Hall and Police Station site ...   other than the fact that it is way on the southern end of the town --- the site  does have a few advantages.
