We now have it confirmed that Commissioner of Public Works Anthony "Skip" Scirocco discussed after the budget meeting last night the possible sale of the National Historic Landmark Canfield Casino in Congress Park. The conversation took place in the beautiful ballroom of the very building he wants to sell. Scirocco proposed the City can no longer afford the historic site and symbol of the City and wants to sell it to the highest bidder.
As Scirocco said ‘the City Unions didn’t elect me to cut their jobs.”
This is just the latest in a long string of harebrained and half-assed proposals from the Commissioner. Scirocco the building is the very heart and soul of Saratoga Springs, the thought that you would sell it to maintain the lifestyles of your Union thugs in the manner they have been accustomed, should be grounds for your removal from the Council.
I also have it confirmed that you wish to buy a paving machine for your Department out of CHIPS funds, Funds that should be used to fix potholes and repave streets.
All so you can have a 70 k new toy that your men can’t operate or maintain or store. 70k for a highly specialized machine that is used less than 14 days a year. Our current lease agreement that includes the skilled operator is cost effective. Again I must wonder “what are you smoking in the mancave?”
Are you trying to punish your neighbors and friends for daring to cut your budget?
And thanks to Kyle about the heads up about BARBARA LOMBARDO being the new cheerleader for Charter Change.Why am I not surprised? They were after all the people who put Anthony "Skip" Scirocco in office. And as far as an INDEPENDENT LOCAL COMMITTEE . Yea that's fucking funny .

Amejo Amyot
Brucie Rosch
Rick Thompson, hey Rick how that whole NXIVM radio thing work out for ya?
And everyone’s favorite Patrick Kane
Same old same old.
I am not saying I dismiss Charter Change out of hand but give me a break. A year in operation with 32 members. Not exactly a groundswell of support.
The same left over job seekers and NXIVM zombies. Now just add BARBARA LOMBARDO to the recipe and you’ve got a big pot of bullshit.
Finally stop trying to tax us and fee us to death. No change of government or leaders or bonding debt can get us out of this mess. You need to cut Spending. That means cut salaries or people. The truth is DPW is overstaffed, cut the fat than see were that leaves us first, before any new taxes or fees are passed.

Scirocco should be removed from office,he represents the bottom of the barrel,when is he going to put the pink flamingos around the union ave.planter,as far as Lombardo goes she hates herself,I don't know why as the poster person for the DULL NORMALS of the northeast shes' been involved in some great decisions,the endorsement of Skippy scirrocco and also contributing to the demize of her parent company JRC just to name a few.
If the Saratodian gave one shit about the City they would open up their parking lot for the public. They stole it with Urban Renewals help after promising to keep 35 parking spaces for the “PUBLIC”. BARBARA LOMBARDO was working her way up the food chain back then in a way that set women back 50 years. She knows the deal the then Garrett owned paper made. When McTygue had the guts to call the paper out on it they launched their vendetta against them. Time to take back what is rightfully ours. Urban Renewal stole the lot through eminent domain. They broke the contract ,time to take it back.
THE fIVE headed monster committee will be made up of BARBARA LOMBARDO,VAL KEEHAN,RON KIM.PAT KANE,and WANNA BE CULT MEMEBER AND I'LL JOIN ANYTHING IF THERE IS SOMETHING IN IT FOR ME rik thompson.These five are for BIG GOVERMENT and BIG TAXES AND THERE'S NOT A CULT THEY WON'T EMBRACE.
I said that the city should look into getting Angelo Mazzone to run the Casino a year ago.
I heard he may be making a bid on it. At least he knows how to make money.
NXIVM is interested in it. Along with the Adelphi, they will have the buildings to host their cult conventions. Glassy eyed hot babes will be roaming Broadway in their fancy sashes.
We should start taxing the drugs and prositution at the brentwood motel.

WE MUST FIND A SLOT FOR demroc,lets call it THE THING WITH 1,000 IDENITIES or better yet..FATHER KNOWS BEST..we'll let the directors think about the last one.
Vanpimp should be able to get the Bronfman brats to toss in a few mil for The Casino. As long as they get new colored sashes, they don't even ask where their money is going any more.
But why stop there? Let's sell them Congress Park and salt away a few bucks just in case the unions don't want to place nice-nice with the city.
think I’m gay. I want to be with a man. I always have. Women disgust me now.....everytime I look at you, I feel sick and itchy. I can’t come out. I hate looking in the mirror. It doesn't lie, but it doesn't tell the truth. I'm not that person anymore, but the mirror doesn't know that.
I need to get tested... I am not alone! You do too……
Will someone PLEASE let me out of Val's basement now?
Saratoga County Sheriff's Department renews contract with village of Corinth
By EMILY DONOHUE, The Saratogian
BALLSTON SPA — The Saratoga County Sheriff’s Department will renew its $298,800 contract with the village of Corinth.
The contract pays for the services of four deputies who provide the village with police coverage 24 hours a day. The village is in budget workshops now and will include the contract in the budget it will finalize by May 1, Mayor Bradley Winslow said.
Sheriff James D. Bowen said this is the fourth year the village has contracted with the department. Corinth disbanded its village police department in 2007 to save money. The new system works “very well” for the village, Winslow said.
The county public safety committee approved the measure Tuesday.
The contract was only renewed for one year, rather than the typical two or three years, because the county is negotiating a new contract with the sheriff’s deputies’ union. The current union contract expired at the end of 2009.
In December, Halfmoon, Clifton Park and Wilton renewed their contracts with the sheriff’s department.
This guy would sell his soul if he thought it would get him somewhere. Can't wait until Minnie Bolster gets wind of this.
Let's sell Congress Park too. We can have a mini circus down there all summer long. Skippy can be the clown or jackass.
Fuck Minnie Bolster. While we're at it fuck George Bolster too! And Mike Noonan. Oh yea! I almost forgot. Fuck John Tighe too!
Scirocco's boys are a real class act.
I can't really can't take barabara lombardo to serious on charter change it's all a ploy to protect Scirocco and the apparent coruption in his dept.The Saratogian is currently selling its' self for 99cents for a weekly subscribition about 14 cents a day,she figures by doing a couple of articals on the city charter she'll improve jrcs' bottom line,the only change needed in this city is a change in the newspaper.
Now he admits he can't manage the Casino,he also can't manage the water dept.that's in ruins and he can't manage the counting of the landfil bags.SCIROCCO IS TOAST. Just as soon as the public discovers he's in office,like when they discoverd he was the supervisor they voted him out,matter of time.
Skip thinks he is safe because the DFC sympahtizers have his back and won't run a candidate against him.
But he will be up shit's creek when the real Dmeocrats take back control this year and the whole game changes.
Rick Thompson, Shawn Thompson even the Thompson twins are gay. How do they even reproduce?
I hate John. I wanted to be john. I even brought his motorcycle so he would like me. But he always new I was an asshole
Selling the Casino would be a sin. What is happening to this city? It's so shocking to see people talking about closing the track. The city leaders need to be in Albany pounding on doors, yelling and screaming. Where is McDonald? Where is Tedesco? Where are Johnson and Yipsen? They need to be in the face of everyone of these useless Albany leaders. Just because Bruno is gone does not mean the city should just give up. Where ia everybody??!?
