The Democrats announced their November slate of Town of Rotterdam candidates today. Opposing Supervisor Steve Tommasone will be former town board hopeful, Richard Leet. Bob Godlewski, Nicola DiLeva, and Matt Martin will vie against current town board members Joe Signore, Stan Marchinkowski, and John Mertz surrogate, Joe Suhrada.
I was slightly surprised that Mr. Godlewski won’t seek the supervisor position. It will be interesting to see how Mr. Leet fares. As far as the remainder of the slate, I am not familiar with either of them.
I’m in the final stages of evaluating my own intentions but this is likely my last printed communication on the subject either way.

Barometer
The Town Board passed the necessary resolution calling for bids on the road and drainage work for Masullo Estates tonight as expected. I can now measure the last 4 1/2 years of NAG effort by this accomplishment. It's unbelievable it took this long but I suppose it represents an important step forward and helps make my resignation as NAG Chairman the other day the right move.
Tirade
I attended tonight's Town Board meeting and delivered what I can only characterize as an emotional tirade. I hate it when I let my anger dictate my comments. Anyway, I think I remained mostly appropriate and conveyed what I set out to. I'm upset about the continued activity on the land parcel I've discussed at length elsewhere. The thrust of my argument tonight revolved around what amounts to an illegal curb cut. I augmented that aspect by revisiting my previous legal argument and concerns. The whole affair is just another example of the Town failing in the areas of oversight and code enforcement. Who will be accountable? Apparently, no one.
