Peter Goodson I disagree it was initiated by the HVHC and they are stupid to think a loss of 200K aRead More year is enough cause for me or the rest of the community to believe a closure is necessary. Federspiel thinks Peekskill is bias, better check again we are pretty damn wise. The powers at be could have made a move and didn't. Greg Ball could have raised that money with one event. He is always in the media for his fundraiser at HVHC. This is an absolute mess. Mary Foster has always responded to my e-mails and always claimed she was in opposition. I have emailed her twice in the past 24 hours with no response. You can run Mary but you can't hide!

That's exactly right. It was a business decision that your Republican buddies supported whole-hogRead More with their sneaky silence. The real issue is that your Republican buddies are as dirty as the day is long and they're of the same mold as this lousy administration. Check out my first post. You political blowhards don't give a rat's whisker about the taxpayers in this city. Seems Frank can't even get his allegiance straight. He's defending a "highly respected" Planning Board. Interesting choice of words. By his own admission, he's defending those "100% Dems." Forensic Audit all the way. And take it back to the last 10 years. Mr. Goodson, stick to writing Uncle Vinnie's press releases.

Pay attention Mary Jane (or is it Darrin, Mary, Michael, Marina). It is the Peekskill CommonRead More Council, Zoning Board and Planning Commission (100% dems) that allowed the clinic to come to Peekskill. The hospital merely made a business decision to not to continue to lose $1/4 million dollars a year by not renewing the contract with the clinic management. The hospital had no role in where it went. Stop trying to deflect the real issue. Its not going to work.

Rose, why is it that you would call me a name? Why not have a productive debate about the issueRead More instead of name call? I'm sure the anti-gun lobby does not like those numbers- but they are the facts. I know it flies in the face of all of the propaganda- millions of gun purchases and gun crime goes down? This is what we've been saying all along. Leave my natural rights as affirmed by the Constitution alone.

Go away, you Troll.

Plenty of laws on the books- they are obviously working ok, and would probably work even better ifRead More vigorously enforced.
Teleman May 15, 2013 at 04:11 pm
I stand by my statement- until these contracts are fully re-negotiated and the unions startRead More contributing to their benefits and taking zero % or minimal raises, the taxes will continue to increase year after year- Buchanan will no longer be the so-called "bargain" some claim it is.

Hey Fly, before you make comments, you should check the facts. The contracts are alive and well.Read More Mr. Donahue should try learning to read and checking the facts before sending his brilliant letters to the editor in for publishing. They are almost always entirely fictional....but perhaps he really believes what he says. Yeah, right. He intentionally makes up stories to sucker people like you into believing his nonsense.

All of those lucrative 2% contract raises have since expired! DUH. Unlike the 15% raises yourRead More glorious mayor has doled out with great regularity.
