At last week’s town board meeting, Supervisor Nadia Rajsz intended to change our zoning by permitting horses in all districts. This would allow anyone two horses on as little as one acre with no review or permit. At the public hearing for this topic, residents protested, and Supervisor Rajsz tabled the resolution, I believe, with the hope that a little re-wording would get it passed instead of putting it to a vote.

Another agenda item was the three acres Supervisor Rajsz would like to purchase in the quiet residential town of Pond Eddy in order to put in a parking lot for tourists. Why? So when the $22 million bridge to nowhere is erected, tourists will flock to Pond Eddy and walk out on the old abutment to look at the river. Two ridiculous projects that are an incredible waste of taxpayers’ dollars.
