Back to the topic of the thread - the Town is doing summer road work this year just as it did 50 years ago.  


Just like they did during tommasone's administration.

You folks don't want to pay to have new waterlines and sewerlines put in.  So look at yourself in the mirror, the next time that you are looking for someone to blame.



How can people pay for waterlines and sewerlines when people are paying GE's taxes?   And paying the county taxes of the billionaires downtown?

Well, can you answer that?????



WHY would we want to pay out of our pockets a fortune for sewers when we can pay $150 every two or three years to have a septic tank pumped out?   But of course as you are not, and never have been, a homeowner and taxpayer, and your comments prove it, you have no clue about the expenses involved in owning a home.

Then would you care to explain why the summer is just about over and many many many many streets have oodles of potholes?



Have never known anyone with a bigger imagination.


Proof of imagination is that he cannot provide a shred of evidence to support anything he says, just like his claims that taxes are lower now than in the 1970's.   Just his wild imagination but never one teeny weeny shred of evidence to prove it.

Like I said....find and support a candidate that 'can' and will make Generous Electric pay 100% of their taxes!
You have yet to respond to that. Who will you support?

Wow, and you deride Mike/Christione for spamming.

Criticizing victims and telling them it's their fault is complete ignorance.

Real victims have NO CHOICES!!!
that is not the case here.
you either find and support a candidate that can legislate change or move!
stewing in a victim mentality for over a decade is complete ignorance!
Listen....it is no secret that I loth the METROPLEX/GILLEN...or any government entity that props up the rich thru legal thievery!
But how can we change it?
And who has the leadership/balls to campaign on abolishing the METROPLEX/GILLEN?
who has the leadership balls to campaign on dissolving ALL tax incentives allowed by METROPLEX/GILLEN?
Schenectady is a sh!thole...everyone knows that.
But who/how does it change?

I'm not spamming. MC1 has posted some very informative information.
But what is the solution?
Is everyone gonna bit@h and moan and choose to fall victim for another decade?

Sadly bumblethru people would rather stew in their own supposed misery than t try to make changes. To me that's taking the easy way out.

And just to recap, I fully expect to be dust before anything is ever resolved. I just thought posing the question "what are you going to do about it?" might help to get  some positive discussion going, and get the young folks here out of what appears to be 7 years of pissing and moaning on rotterdamny.info.

Rotterdam residents cannot vote for Schenectady city council people so we have no say in whether our county taxes are paying for the downtown billionaires.

The leaders in the city of Schenectady could deny these for-profit properties owned by millionaires and billionaires the tax exemption, but no, they will deny city homeowners a reduction in assessment but they will give long term and often permanent 100% tax exemptions to millionaires and billionaires.

no, it's more like dangerous. especially if one has kids in school.
