I know Chapter 3 comes on the heels of Chapter 2 but Chapter 3 kind of finishes off SAVE. Tonight’s Council meeting may have finished off the SAVE
groups plot to stymie the Casino & Raceway’s plans to expand. Speaker after speaker played the same tune as
in previous Council meetings (they don’t want the Racino to expand, period). However, much to the chagrin of the SAVE
group, the City’s outside legal expert
in SEQRA cases
told the Council and those in attendance
and online during a Q & A that any lawsuit to become lead agency would fail
and cost the City a lot of money for basically nothing. He stated that the City filed an Article 78
in a similar case in 2006 and lost and he also commented that the laws have
gotten tougher against Cities in these cases.
Also our esteemed DPW Commissioner asked Skip Carlson ‘how
much time does a customer stay and play the slots’? This is another gem from the lips of the
Commissioner.
I know it’s never over until the fat lady sings but I
thought I did hear Robert Davis singing ‘We All Live in a Yellow Submarine’, as
he left the building.
And, Captain, oh Captain, what did our citizens pay for that "oh so brief" answer by our outside legal expert???????
ReplyDeleteSkippy comes up with the MOST in depth questions!! So wonderful that he's our DPW leader. NOT!! Let's ask him how many builders/developers he gave a "pass" to on water connections.
