Can I ask a question ? Why are the taxes for the Hartsdale Fire Department so high ?

They dont even respond to EMS calls ???

Anyone ???

Ask your fire department. Unfortunately each fire department is a completely separate entity from the town.

I wish people would stop complaining about taxes!! you should have been concerned 2 years ago when you voted to waste 20million dollars on the Library

Many residents were against the librayr,but sine Sheehan and his friends not mentioning area and names wanted to hang the supervisor they made sure that they got out the vote to defeat the supervisor.
You cannot blame the residents for the library...Blame Diana Juettner,and the rest of the town council.
Feiner was dead set against this plan but as so many of the plans were Sheehans. and co. they were passed.No one listened to Samis neither,they said he didn't know what he was talking about.
Is't it funny what Samis predicted then is coming true today.
The sad part is that we are only starting now wait till next year and see how much more money has to be filtered into the library.
Feiner and Samis knew what they were fighting for but when you have a council and four or five civic leaders agaist you it's hard to win.
I thank Sheehan{the boss]the council and civic associations for part of the hike.

The tax hike for the library is statistical noise compared with the cost of fiscal mismanagement the Town has suffered. How can the median price of a home be up (See the blog post trumpeting this factoid as a triumph) and the total assessed value of the Town be down? Feiner has failed to order (as only he can because he is by law the Town's Chief Fiscal Officer) a Town-wide revaluation. This allows any of his commercial developer buddies (uh, and campaign contributors) to petition for a reduction in taxes whenever they feel like it. Why is the total value of Greenburgh today LESS than it was when the Supervisor took office the first time 16 years ago? The question isn't complicated at all. The value is less because the Supervisor finds it right and proper for commercial properties to pay less than their fair share - and screw the taxpayers who can't/won't/don't contribute to the Feiner re-election and ultimate retirement warchest. Why does Feiner direct contributions from the real fat cats go to his long invisible congressional campaign? Because then they don't show up on his piddling NY State Board of Elections filings - Congress ain't a State office, it's Federal and Feiner thinks no one will FOIL the records of his 1998 (and still counting) campaign.
How about it Paul - come clean and release the Federal filings! After all, the campaign has been over for NINE years. What are you hiding?
