Waterwheel Property Debacle

Several years ago, the Village of Ardsley was approached by the Ardsley FD to purchase the Waterwheel property, long after the fire that destroyed the property in December 1992, to create affordable housing for any of it's volunteers and municipal employees. The Village said no. It's ironic since now the supervisor is willing to give the property away to any developer willing to build affordable housing, just not to house volunteers and municipal employees.

  1. The Ardsley FD is a great and historic tradition in our Village. If their people approached the Village to build affordable housing, it would have been a great coup for them as a recruitment and retainment tool. What could our Village administration be thinking.

  2. can you document this claim?
    the village has been seeking to get workforce housing here for years
    until recently the property was in legal limbo due to feiner's incompetent crew
