Mr Feiner has gone out of his way to attack the Fairview Fire District, Fire Department and former Chief. His repeated claims of financial chicanery were unfounded and proven to be either fabrications and out and out lies. His concentric group of giddy senior citizens rallied around him to espouse his message, keeping his hands “clean”, only to receive the adoration from a colusive press with publication of his lies. Where was Mr Feiner and his budget outrage for the school budget?
Tuesday saw the school budget for the Greenburgh Central Schools pass with nary a blip on the radar. There were several people running for School Board and there were no propositions. The results of the election for school board seats are Deborah Campbell with 604 votes, Claudia Glaser with 599 votes, Cora Carey with 402 votes and Jeffrey Barnes with 256 votes. The school budget also passed with a wide margin of approval with a vote of 671 to 342. Where was Mr Feiner and his budget outrage for the school budget?
Where was Mr Feiner and his budget outrage for the school budget? Obviously, he was no where to be found. He could not take a chance of alienating his base by going after the school board or their budget or “the children”. If he was truly concerned about the financial woes of the Town taxpayers, he would be doing things much differently. He certainly would not be discriminating against churches and be found guilty to the tune of $6.5M. He would not have tried to placate a minute handful of Valhalla residents by not renewing the WestHelp lease to the tune of $1.2M per year. Nor would he have ignored the land sale of the Frank’s Nursery property for $3.5M. And he certainly could have had revaluation done at any point during his 22-years in office and avoided the certiorari adjustment payments the Town is required to make to the tune of about $1M per Town Board meeting (2 meetings per month)!
Where was Mr Feiner and his budget outrage for the school budget? He remained mute. He remained mute because his “outrage” is not genuine and strictly for media attention and his own agenda. If he was really concerned about finances in the Town, he could really save money for the Town taxpayer by simply resigning. He alone is the greatest expense to the Town taxpayers. Once he leaves, we’ll begin to see A Better Greenburgh.

Congratulations Claudia.
ReplyDeleteAs for ABG, please double your meds. You have gone postal. Your rants about Feiner are pathetic. You have no ideas. You are just an apologist for the discriminatory nepotists at the various fire departments. A better status quo is more like it. Again, fill your prescription.
The best is yet to come. After the Revaluation and the Comprehensive Plan, your taxes will be higher, road traffic will become permanent gridlock, sewer and water will be overloaded and need constant repairs and upgrades, the fire, police, sanitation, schools, courts and all other services will insist they need more employees and higher pay. Eventually every single family house will be leveled, high rises will fill the spaces left and GB will be on par with the congested boroughs of NYC. The supervisor will crow about the jobs created, the planning commissioner will have a new item for his resume and move up the ladder to regional planning. The home owner will be left holding the bag.
ReplyDeleteThe comprehensive plan is a disaster. Every public meeting has shown it is ill-conceived and was put together by know nothing amateurs. It is a blueprint for urban decay. In fact, it was totally unnecessary under New York law. Francis Sheehan should resign in disgrace. He foisted this nonsense on the taxpayers. In a strange way, the spot zoning Feiner has engaged in looks alot better than this absurd and brutalist document which failed to address traffic, infrastructure and most importantly the schools in the Town. What a fiasco and yet again another waste of hundreds of thousands of dollars because of Francis Sheehan's ego. Word is getting out to the larger community that if this plan is adopted (and not scrapped), no one will be moving here because the quality of life and the schools will be so eroded.
