It provides outpatient drug rehabilition, birth control and abortion counseling. This is part of Greenburgh's social services program that is offered to all town residents who need it, including residents of the villages. It is paid for, however, only by the generous taxpayers of unincorporated Greenburgh. And the reason the resolution is being voted on at a meeting held at the community center is to make sure that this information is confined only to those attending the meeting at TDYCC, and to no one else. That's open government in Greenburgh, for ya.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33594888.post-70648062040435510782009-02-01T14:20:00.000-05:002009-02-01T14:20:00.000-05:00Feel free to discuss this new TDYCC development at...Feel free to discuss this new TDYCC development at http://freegreenburgh.blogspot.com/Speak Freelyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10055436605804011476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33594888.post-29722794615059961242009-02-01T13:32:00.000-05:002009-02-01T13:32:00.000-05:00And the CSEA still can't get a raise.

Maybe Fairview residents would want to ask.<BR/><BR/>Just sent to the Town Board.<BR/><BR/><BR/>"Attached is the forward from the Town Clerk's office -- the response to my FOIL request for the Library Punch List (WHAT REMAINS TO BE DONE). <BR/>As you can see after opening, (THE RETURNED FOIL REQUEST) Library Director Contrata says there is no such list. Without such a list, what is the basis for her statements that "this is on order", "that is going to be done" etc.? <BR/> <BR/>How can it be that no one, the Town as owner or the Library as operator, has any idea of what work remains to be done on the Library expansion project. I would recommend that no further funds be approved (including change orders) for this project until some one can step forward and represent some accountability -- this especially references the Architect and the now disengaged Construction Manager. Just by signing purchase orders and signing off on work in no manner suggests that anyone is checking the work done or not done against the obligations as outlined in the awarded contracts. As for utilizing the consulting services of Mr. Regula, not only was he unsuited from the beginning, at this point whom would he talk to and his skill sets in this particular area do not justify his hourly rate. <BR/> <BR/>Nevertheless, there are many items left undone and someone with some talent in this area needs to be brought on board. <BR/> <BR/>Paul, what about Pete Federman or Vic Weinstein?"<BR/><BR/>And this is how your money is spent. Don't be fooled by the new Library; they have already spent well over $20 million and it is not finished. With $20 million, and an already existing shell (the former building) for half of the total space -- did taxpayers not expect to see some proof of the money spent? My continuing argument is that taxpayers could have gotten a lot more Library for the same dollars.<BR/><BR/>And, taxpayers have not yet seen the final bill.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33594888.post-24501449078486287642009-01-30T11:54:00.000-05:002009-01-30T11:54:00.000-05:00dear anon - i would be more concerned with the rum...dear anon - i would be more concerned with the rumblings as well as the fate of the new hartsdale school district.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33594888.post-81606214894980672752009-01-30T10:41:00.000-05:002009-01-30T10:41:00.000-05:00Mind your own P's & Q's Ardsley guy @1...Mind your own P's & Q's Ardsley guy @10:38.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33594888.post-50192229744707047852009-01-30T10:38:00.000-05:002009-01-30T10:38:00.000-05:00a hartsdale school district?hartsdale had one deca...a hartsdale school district?<BR/><BR/>hartsdale had one decades ago.<BR/><BR/>perhaps for those of us not in hartsdale, could you explain what the rumblings are all about?<BR/><BR/>or is this just further evidence that hartsdale keeps sinking further and further in the political black hole its in?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33594888.post-49169274586212307402009-01-30T10:12:00.000-05:002009-01-30T10:12:00.000-05:00I just paid my school taxes and I am sick!
