WHAT DOES THE FUTURE
HOLD IF YOU RE-ELECT KATHY
SHEEHAN TO A SECOND TERM?
http://www.focusonalbany.com/radio-interviews/item/737-what-to-look-forward-to-if-sheehan-is-reelected
48,000 Albany voters are eligible to vote
in the November 7th City Elections.
Mayor Sheehan won the September 12
Democratic Primary with less than 50%
of the 1ow turnout of 12.000 Democrats.
22,000 Democrats did not go to polls.
November 7, 7,000 not enrolled, 3,000
Republicans and about 700 Independence
Party voters can vote , in addition to the
the 34,600 Democrats who were eligible
to vote in their party primary, and who
can vote , again, November 7 .
If voters take the time to become informed
and go to the polls, the outcome of the
November 7 election can be very different.
Under the Sheehan Administration polices,
Albany on the fast track to becoming Detroit
on the Hudson. Declaring Albany a Sanctuary
City will result in the loss of 10's of millions
of dollars annual federal aid to the City. Rezone
Albany allowing mixed uses in the uptown prime
single family residential neighborhoods will
adversely impact the residential integrity, quality
of life, home values and City property tax base
because these prime neighborhoods pay the lion's
share of the property taxes that support City
schools /City government services.\
kathy Sheehans Albany. Sanctuary City.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WgOHOHKBEqE&feature=share
Downtown Albany's blighted neighborhoods
contain a large dependent population that
sends the most children to the City schools
who will suffer if the uptown tax base collapses
as people flee out of the City.
Who, then will pay for the City Schools which
receive 2/3 of the property tax bills paid by
homeowners and small businesses?
When the City tax base collapses, police
firefighter and all City workers will suffer
including active workers and retirees.
So, what will it be November 7 re-elect Kathy
Sheehan and become Detroit on the Hudson
Or, make a major course correction- elect
Sullivan Conservative Row C, and the
Conservative slate, which will restore Albany
to fiscal solvency, uphold the Constitution,
restore the rule of law in Albany, promote
emergency/disaster preparedness, strict speed
control and enforcement of all V&T laws on City
residential streets, and repeal Rezone Albany?

BE READY
This morning early on Talk 1300 host
Rich Vassi and News Reporter Darrell
Camp briefly discussed the frustration
they (and we all) feel with the the sharp
political divisions that are tearing our
destroying our Nation.
Darrell speculated that most people are
seeking to escape the reality by seeking
comfort anyway they can.
Rich and Darrell gave me a few momemts
in a call in to respond.
We live in perilous times for our city and
our Country. However, rather that seeking
to escape reality, we should recognize it
prepare for what, natural and man-made
disasters that will come our way in the days
weeks and months ahead and deal with those
realities.
We are living out a real life battle for survival.
Ponder this. A severe winter storm, sub zero
temperatures coupled with a terror attack
knocking out the power grid, water and sewer
natural gas utilities and communications
systems including 911, cell phones, internet.
Are you anticipating what can and will occur?
Are you ready to survive? Or will you look to
government to save you?
Do you understand that government can't save
us? That we must save ourselves and our
government?
Are you ready? Have you set aside enough water
food, fuel, medicines, and essentials to survive on
your own for an extended period of time? Do you
know first aid? Have you prepared to defend your
loved ones, your homes, your property? Do you
keep your vehicle gas tanks full? Have go bags
packed, if evacuations are ordered? Know how
and where you would go? Or how you would survive
in place? How you and your loved ones will
communicate and gather?
You get the idea. Get ready starting today.
Go to Ready.gov county, state and emergency
preparedness websites. Inform yourselves and
get ready.
If you depend on life saving prescriptions be
sure to have a 90 day supply on hand at all
times.
The next Mayor of Albany must be a leader
who will organize, and mobilize government
to focus on emergency/disaster preparedness.
But, in the end you bear the ultimate responsibilty
for the survival of yourselves, your loved ones
your neighbors and others around you.
Read this website posts, as well as
bpcnanews.blogspot.com and
lonerangeralbany.blogspot.com
Listen to my interviews with Focus on Albany
at blog talk radio. Cynthia Pooler.
There you will find clear, concise position
statements as to where I stand on issues
in this election that matter to the survival
of Albany and to each of us, including
restoring fiscal solvency, law and order
diversity with allegiance, repeal of Rezone
Albany Zoning, 25 mph City speed limits
on City residential streets. Strict enforcement
of this speed limit, and all V&T laws.
Improved snow removal, waste disposal
recycling, consolidation of City schools
with City government. Property tax relief
and more.
Your party affiliation will be irrelevant.
I humbly ask for your votes.
The November 7 election offers you the
clearest choice possible in averting Albany
from becoming Detroit on The Hudson.
Are you content to allow 6,000 of 48,000
eligible voters to reelect the incumbent
or will you become informed, go to the
polls (or vote absentee) November 7
and elect a Mayor who will, with your
support, make significant course corrections
Albany requires in order for our City
and yourselves to survive what comes our
way?

WHAT CAN ALBANY VOTER CAN EXPECT IF THEY
ELECT JOE SULLIVAN AND THE CONSERVATIVE CANDIDATES
November 7. Updated, corrected 9/20/17
Voters can expect law and order, actions to restore fiscal
solvency of the City of Albany. Changes in trash collection
and recycling, repeal of the trash tax, as well as snow removal.
Citizen involvement and responsibility in emergency/disaster planning .
City Court Judges that will uphold the Constitution, in particular
Second Amendment including issuance of pistol permits to
qualified, law abiding citizens, and stay to interpreting rather than
making laws.
Law and Order - Exec Order #1 Repeal Sheehan Order with Sullivan
Order declaring Albany IS NOT A SANCTUARY CITY . Directing APD
Chief/Officers to cooperate with ICE in enforcement of all existing U S
Immigration Laws . This will restore 10's of million of annual federal aid
dollars to Albany thereby restoring fiscal solvency and a balanced budget
Legal, vetted immigrants and migrants who can support themselves, learn
our language, who obey our laws, intend to assimilate into our culture and
become productive, proud to be American citizens will be welcome. Those who
who do not, who practice belief systems which are hostile and in conflict
with our Constitution, laws and culture, those who are hositile and intent
on doing us harm-are not welcome here.
The APD will aggressively act to keep our streets and neighborhoods safe
Assaults, robberies illegal gun violence, burglaries, vandalism, pan handling
and anti-social, unlawful behavior shall not be tolerated.
Orderly, peaceful protests will be allowed. Violence, property damage, looting
obstruction of traffic, disorderly conduct , desceration of our Flag and public
monuments shall not be allowed
Exec Order #2 Set City speed limit of 25 mph on all City residential streets.
Direct APD to strictly enforce speed limit and all V&T Laws including no
passing on right, no running red lights/stop signs and repealing Red Light
Camera program. This is a priority public safety/quality of life issue
Zoning ,Executive Order # 3 Immediate Six month Moratorium and
full review of Rezone Albany Retroactive to effective date of
said Rezone Law enactment May 15. 2017, in
contemplation of amendment and full repeal, reinstatement of Sec 375 Code
in effect prior to May 15, 2017 with particular emphasis on no mixed use
development in single residential family neighborhoods . Houses of Worship
so defined- no institutional classification as in Rezone, no mixed use or
privatizing of Albany Municipal Golf Course and no grandfathering in
of non conforming uses as defined in the Zoning Code prior tp enactment
of Rezone Albany. Restoration of green open spaces formerly designated
in purpetuity as results of the efforts of Buckingham Pond/Crestwood NA .
This will restore fiscal solvency by preventing destruction of home values,
quality of life, and property tax in primes residential neighborhoods that
pay the lion's share of the property taxes that support City schools/government.
City WATER SUPPLY
Executive Order #4 Security of City reservoirs to guard against acts of
terror, sabotage and to protect actions aimed at protecting water quality
averting algae blooms and full all contracts/arrangements of water sales with
to local municipalities with the aim of sustainability of the City water supply
and water sale rates equal to what City residents pay.
Emergency/Disaster Preparededness . All City departments, agencies will
prepare coordinated responses to natural and man made disasters , preventing
and dealing with terrorism. The general public will be expected to do the same..
Government, alone can't save us, we have to save ourselves and our government.
Appointments all incumbents willing to cooperate with, and further all new
policies of ths Sullivan Administration may apply for continuance.
1. Richard Stack Conservative Party Chair will be my Chief of Staff
2. I will ask former Mayor Jennings to accept position of Deputy Mayor
or Mayor Emeritus to be responsible for:
a) acting as liaison with the Governor and Legislature to:
a1) obtain annual 15 million POLIT payments from NYS for Harriman
State Office Campus
a2) Consolidate City schools /City government, establish one property tax
roll to fund both, return to a K-8 neighborhood Albany school system,
making the Mayor responsible/accountable for operation/performance of
City schools. Replacing the School Board with a three member administrative
panel of Gerry Jennings, Ed Trant and Jerry Spicer (all former principals)
and making curriculum and changes to state law that will allow for more
local control of city schools for a new urban education model.
a3) perform all mayoral ceremonial functions and press functions. The result:
improved learning, graduation rates, order in the schools, ending the lottery
system, return to neighborhood schools which are best for kids, parents, disciplined
learning settings to aid troubled kids with behavioral/learning problems. And
it will end a city within a city property tax burden of 250+million school budget
for City schools and a a 180+ million City budget. Thereby lifting the property
tax burden on homeowners and small businesses. A major reform needed for
more effective education and a major role in restoring fiscal solvency and long
term balanced city budgets.

WHY I ASKED MARK ROBINSON
TO BE MY RUNNING MATE AS
COMMON COUNCIL PRESIDENT
CONSERVATIVE ROW C NOV 7
Mark has served the people of Ward 5 and all
the people of Albany as Council Member.
* Mark is an independent Democrat, not a
rubber stamp for Mayor Sheehan.
Corey Ellis is beholden to Mayor Sheehan
who carried him to victory on her coat tails
in the September 12 Democratic Primary.
The November 7 Election will decide who
will be the next Common Council President
and Mayor apparent should the Mayor move on
shortly after election.
By Small Cities Law, the President of the Common
Council becomes the Mayor for the remainder of
that 4 year term.
Corey is not, and can not be a true independent
for the people. He would be Sheehan light.
Mark is an independent for all the people of Albany.
Mark is a humble, hard worker who does not exude
an air of entitlement as does Corey.
Mark works buying and rehabbing abandoned homes
in West Hills..with no incentives or tax breaks. Corey
was on the Land bank buying and consolidating land
in the Black wards for developer deals with brown
bag contributors, foreclosing and excluding those
ward residents from having access to rehab and build
homes in their hood.
Mark is an independent for the people. Corey is a
Sheehan rubber stamp out for Corey, NOt the people!
In sum, my vote Nov 7 is for Mark Robinson for Common
Council President. I respectfully ask you to vote for Mark

for Albany Mayor on the Independence
ballot line.
A wise move. Frank lives to fight another
day as a Democratic candidate, keeps the
Commisso legacy alive and strengthens the
hand of Frank Senior in his battle with
Dan McCoy for control of County government.
Perhaps, Frank Jr might accept being City
Budget Director?
Perhaps, Carolyn McLaughlin may accept
a suitable roll in a Conservative City
Administration?
The November 7 City election for Mayor
and control of the City Council is essentially
a referendum on your Liberty and survival
of a fiscally insolvent City on the fast track
to becoming Detroit on the Hudson.
The choice before Commisso Primary voters
Independence Party enrolled voter, 22,000
Democrats who did not vote in the Democratic
Primary, 3,000 Republicans, and 7,000 blanks
(not enrolled in any party), as well as Greens
and Conservatives who can vote November 7
is clear -
Your can join the 6,000 Democrats who voted
for the Sheehan Left wing "progressives: in
the Democratic Primary which is a vote for
destruction of the Uptown single family zoned
residential neighborhoods (Rezone Albany)
which will, in turn destroy fiscal support for
already financially strapped City Schools/City
services, control of available building land
neighborhoods, pushing blacks to the back of
the bus and favoring Refugees and assorted illegal\
aliens as the new Democratic Minority.
Exhibit A - concerting the only K-8 neighborhood
school in North Albany, to a Refugee school for
non- English speakers and forcing the largely black
student body to attend schools outside their hood.
Nor, does this speed the assimilation of immigrants
legal, illegal or refugees into mainstream American
culture and political participation.
OR you can vote Conservative Row C for
your Liberty, survival and the fiscal solvency
of the City of Albany.
The Mayors race is a one on one match up as
are a number of key wards in the Common
Council contests.

The Conservative (Row C) position is fiscal
solvency of the City of Albany can be achieved
by
1) Declaring Albany Not a sanctuary City
thus avoiding loss of tens of millions of dollars
annual aid from the federal government,
2.) negotiating with Governor Cuomo to have
NYS pay to the City of Albany the 15 million
ANNUALdollar PILOT payment (in lieu of taxes)
which is of mutual benefit to City taxpayers as
well as the Governor.
3) NOT SELLING the 353 acres
of land in Coeymans that City tax payers paid
5.2 million in tax dollars for in anticipation of
a land fill solution - for a mere 500+,000 dollars
as a desperate move by Mayor Sheehan to come
up with a fake balanced 2018 City Budget by
October 1. This would require the Common
Council approval by October 31. DO NOT let
them approve what is clearly a bad fiscal move.
Hold on the to the 353 acres and sell it to not less
but MORE than the 5.2 millions taxpayer dollars
invested in the site.
4.) In cooperation with the NYS Comptoller's
Office doing complete audits of Albany City
government and City schools Meeting with
City workers, APD, AFD, Common Council
incumbents and challengers before October 31
and any interested City resident voters receive
recommendations for trimming wasteful spending
of city taxpayer dollars.
The result of all of the above should be a truly
fiscally solvent City of Albany!
It is about Liberty and Leadership - your vote
for Conservative (Row C) candidates, November
7 is a vote for your Freedom and a fiscally solvent
City of Albany.
Vote Row C Conservative for a necessary course
change in the City of Albany.

Albany 403 years old and is in the process
of being destroyed by self induced blight
and destruction of the few prime single
family residential zoned neighborhoods
by a new zoning code called Rezone Albany.
If the Dutch were in charge here, Albany
would be a shining, clean city and the Hudson
River would not be polluted by tens of
thousands of sewage dumped by the City of
Albany. The surrounding countryside would
a neat vegetable/dairy garden.
If Mayor Sheehan were Mayor of Nijmegen

ASSESS THIS
The Times Union reports that the City
of Albany may sell the 353 acres that
the Jennings administration purchased
with 5.2 million dollars of City property
taxpayer money as a future landfill site
for a fraction of what City taxpayers
paid for the site. This is a smart move?
http://www.timesunion.com/news/article/Exclusive-Coeymans-Industrial-Park-eyes-12200366.php
Obviously a desperate move by the
Albany Mayor and candidate for
reelection in the November 7 election
to achieve a balanced 2018 budget for
presentation to the Common Council
by October 1.
The Common Council, which includes
a number of lame duck members as
well as many returning rubber stamp
members, as a result of the September
12 Democratic Primary, must vote to
approve that budget by the end of
October.
Mayor Sheehan has appointed Sue
Rizzo, who won the September 12
primary for City Auditor, to fill the
current vacancy in that office.
Can Sue Rizzo conduct an unbiased
audit of this proposed move by Mayor
and candidate for reelection Sheehan
and present it before the Common
Council must vote on the Mayor's
2018 City Budget proposal?
The answer is YES. Sue Rizzo has
a real estate background and was
top vote recipient in the September 12
primary, out polling Mayor Sheehan
by a thousand votes. Sue Rizzo has
no November 7 election opponent
therefore she is City Auditor elect
whereas Mayor Sheehan must win
a contested November 7 election in
order to continue on as Mayor. For
the next four years? In addition,
the City Charter provides that the
City Auditor is accountable to the
voters of the City of Albany. NOT
the Mayor.
The adverse impact of Rezone
Albany on neighborhood residential
integrity, quality of life, home values
the City property tax base in the
prime single family zoned residential
neighborhoods which pay the lion's
share of property taxes that support
City schools/City government services
is the subject of another audit by the
City Auditor before Albany becomes
Detroit on the Hudson as homeowners
in the prime single family residential
neighborhoods flee the City.
Who, then will support City schools
and City services?
City Auditor Rizzo can, ... conducting
and presenting the above audits prior

SULLIVAN FOR ALBANY MAYOR.
HOW TO RESTORE THE CITY OF
ALBANY TO FISCAL SOLVENCY
As Mayor I will:
1. Issue an Executive Order Declaring
that the City of Albany is NOT a
Sanctuary City and directing the
Albany Police to cooperate with ICE
This will make Albany a safer place
and prevent loss of more than 7 million
dollars in annual federal aid to the City
of Albany.
2. Call on Governor Cuomo to have NYS
make 15 million dollar annual PILOT
payments to the City of Albany for the
Harriman State Office Campus.
NYS pays a similar PILOT to the City
for the Empire State Plaza. It is only
just that the State do the same for the
Harriman Office Campus.
Governor Cuomo may not love Mayor
Sheehan and City Treasurer Shahinfar
because they backed his primary foe
Teachout in the last gubernatorial race.
But, Governor Cuomo loves Albany and
will do what is just and proper for the
people and City of Albany.
They will show their gratitude next year.
So, 7 million and 15 million adds up to
22 million dollars and restoration of fiscal
solvency for the City of Albany.
However, the City of Albany must reign in
spending , repeal and/or amend the Rezone
Albany provisions relating to promoting
mixed use in the prime single family zoned
residential neighborhoods of wards 4, 7, 8
9,12,13,14 and 15 which pay the lions share
of property taxes that support City schools
and City government services.
The new definition of Religious Institutions
must be repealed with Houses of Worship
restored as the only other use, beside single
family dwellings, permitted in these single
family zoned neighborhoods, along with
the few other permitted uses as allowed in
the former City Zoning Code.
Listen to today's Focus on State Capitol
podcast Fred Dicker interview with
Westchester County Executive Astorino
re: HUD settlement relating to zoning
and social engineering of neighborhoods.
Same as what Sheehan Administration
and Rezone Albany is about.
http://www.talk1300.com/CMT/podcast/FSC719171.mp3
The City Charter should be amended to
abolish the Office of City Auditor and to
make the City Assessor an elected office
as it was in the O'Connell era.
The State Comptroller should continue
to provide audits of City government and
the City schools.
City schools should be consolidated with
City government, with one tax roll to
finance both, return to a k-8 neighborhood
school system and making the Mayor of
Albany responsible/accountable for the
operation/performance of City schools.
This question should be appear as a ballot
proposition to be voted upon by city voters.
Mixed use development and/or sale of the
City golf course is opposed because this
is a multi use open space that includes
golf, winter skiing. sledding, walking
and a place for people and their dogs to
enjoy space to exercise with magnificent
views of the Catskills and Helderberg.
In short the City golf course is an asset
for all city residents and contributes to
the quality of life, home values and city
tax base of the surrounding single family
zoned neighborhoods

TRASH: PAY AS YOU THROW?
SEWERS: PAY AS YOU GO?
http://www.timesunion.com/allnews/article/Weekend-rains-drive-more-sewage-spills-into-11297008.php
The Sheehan administration is
promoting a pay as you throw
trash fee for City residents.
Meanwhile, huge sewage spills
from the City of Albany are
polluting the Hudson River.
Is the remedy to be found in
separating sewage from storm
water lines? Or in upgrading the
City sewage treatment plant?
Or both?
In any case, these remedies will
cost lots of money.
What about a pay as you go
solution to finance these upgrades?
City homeowners already pay as
they go. They pay quarterly water/
sewer rates (taxes). For every dollar
of water usage, homeowners pay a
corresponding dollar in sewers fees.
Even if most of the water consumed
is used for watering their lawns and
washing their cars.
Are schools, colleges, universities
hospitals, state-federal office buildings
religious institutions, apartment
buildings, hotels/motels, restaurants
and public housing complexes paying
the same dollar for dollar water-
sewer fees?
What about the daily surge of
commuters who come to the City of
Albany daily to work...and to go?
If not, why not? A full disclosure
audit is in order. A job for the State
Comptroller's Office.
Treated waste water could be used
in hydro-fracking for natural gas in
the Southern Tier, instead of dumping
it in the Hudson.
Clean natural gas can spur economic
development in Albany and elsewhere
Upstate. Clean energy translating to
needed jobs, as well as contributing
revenues for upgrading aged urban
water-sewer systems.
Time for politicians at the state and
local levels to get their heads out of
the toilets and take action to upgrade
water-sewer systems in Albany and
along the Hudson-Mohawk-Erie Canal
urban axis.

ALBANY IN THE REAR
VIEW MIRROR
MAYORAL CANDIDATES
DISCOVER UPTOWN ALBANY
http://www.timesunion.com/news/article/Albany-mayoral-candidates-share-visions-for-11265626.php
WHY? THAT IS WHERE THE VOTES ARE!
SHEEHAN, MCLAUGHLIN and COMMISSO
have been in office for years.
How come they haven't dealt with traffic
pedestrian safety problems all the time
they have been in office?
Sheehan wants to raise funds for another
study. McLaughlin wants to " educate" dumb
ass drivers and pedestrians how to utilize
traffic lights and crosswalks
At the same time Sheehan rams through
her REZONE ALBANY zoning changes
with the vote of her 12 rubber stramps
on the Common Council, including the
Common Council Members who are
supposed to represent Wards 8, 9, 10
12, 13 and 14.
REZONE ALBANY will spur a rush
of development which will destroy the
residential integrity, quality of life, homes
values and City property tax base that
supports City schools and City government
services, adversely impacting every City
resident. Traffic/pedestrian safety issues
will only get worse!
Councilman Robinson , Common Council
President candidate, gets beat up in Council
caucus, called an "angry black man" for
wanting the Council to Vote on his Resolution
for a Moratorium on Rezone Albany until
January 2018, when the Mayor and Common
Council Members who are elected in the
November General Election are seated.
Current Council President Carolyn McLaughlin
leads the attack on Robinson. Is she really a
mayoral candidate or just a shill for Sheehan
to split the anti Sheehan primary vote?
Council Member Conti slyly cons Robinson
into withdrawing the Resolution and resubmitting
an amendment to th effective date of Rezone
Albany to January 2018. That amendment would
die in Committee and never make it to the floor
for a vote of the full Council. Clever dodge by
Conti!

http://www.timesunion.com/news/article/Halt-on-ReZone-Albany-11264352.php
This avoids the other Council Members having
to cast a vote on the Robinson REZONE ALBANY
Moratorium Resolution.
9th Ward Council Member Judy Deshante a
Sheehan ally and wife of former City Court
Judge Keefe, admits that passage of the Resolution
would harm development plans already in progress
in Uptown single family neighborhoods as a result
of the June 1st effective date.
What development plans? Where? By whom?
Why haven't these development plans been
made known to residents of the uptown single
family residential neighborhoods?
Oh, after the Democratic Primary September 12?
OK? Really?
Is it any wonder that 4 sale signs outnumber
political candidate lawn signs in uptown Albany?
Voters that can, have another vision of Albany -
in the rear view mirror!

MAYORAL CANDIDATES
DISCOVER UPTOWN ALBANY

WHY? THAT IS WHERE THE VOTES ARE!
SHEEHAN, MCLAUGHLIN and COMMISSO
have been in office for years.
How come they haven't dealt with traffic
pedestrian safety problems all the time
they have been in office?
Sheehan wants to raise funds for another
study. McLaughlin wants to " educate" dumb
ass drivers and pedestrians how to utilize
traffic lights and crosswalks
At the same time Sheehan rams through
her REZONE ALBANY zoning changes
with the vote of her 12 rubber stramps
on the Common Council, including the
Common Council Members who are
supposed to represent Wards 8, 9, 10
12, 13 and 14.
REZONE ALBANY will spur a rush
of development which will destroy the
residential integrity, quality of life, homes
values and City property tax base that
supports City schools and City government
services, adversely impacting every City
resident. Traffic/pedestrian safety issues
will only get worse!
Councilman Robinson , Common Council
President candidate, gets beat up in Council
caucus, called an "angry black man" for
wanting the Council to Vote on his Resolution
for a Moratorium on Rezone Albany until
January 2018, when the Mayor and Common
Council Members who are elected in the
November General Election are seated.
Current Council President Carolyn McLaughlin
leads the attack on Robinson. Is she really a
mayoral candidate or just a shill for Sheehan
to split the anti Sheehan primary vote?
Council Member Conti slyly cons Robinson
into withdrawing the Resolution and resubmitting
an amendment to th effective date of Rezone
Albany to January 2018. That amendment would
die in Committee and never make it to the floor
for a vote of the full Council. Clever dodge by
Conti!

This avoids the other Council Members having
to cast a vote on the Robinson REZONE ALBANY
Moratorium Resolution.
9th Ward Council Member Judy Deshante a
Sheehan ally and wife of former City Court
Judge Keefe, admits that passage of the Resolution
would harm development plans already in progress
in Uptown single family neighborhoods as a result
of the June 1st effective date.
What development plans? Where? By whom?
Why haven't these development plans been
made known to residents of the uptown single
family residential neighborhoods?
Oh, after the Democratic Primary September 12?
OK? Really?
Is it any wonder that 4 sale signs outnumber
political candidate lawn signs in uptown Albany?
Voters that can, have another vision of Albany -

Rezone Albany opens up single
family residential neighborhoods
in the City of Albany to mixed use
development, which will destroy
neighborhood residential integrity
quality of life, home values and
the City property tax base, as well
as support for City schools and City
government services.
Not a smart move for a City on
the brink of fiscal insolvency.
Every resident of Albany will be
effected by this outcome.
Pay attention and see how your
Common Council Member votes
on this Rezone Albany Moratorium
Resolution tonight.
