More money – secret deals – your tax dollars at work!

Hamburg First has been digging for information on the Big Tree Fire Department for a while now. Up till now our unofficial requests have been met with stony silence. I now have had some information fall into my lap and what little I have found out is astounding. Are you ready? I hope you’re sitting down.

Sorry, been busy

Sorry I haven’t written any articles lately. I took a few days off for some R&R. I’m back now and need to get reacquainted with the political scene in Hamburg. As soon as I get some info I’ll have it up.

I have heard that the Supervisor has had meetings with Kevin Smardz and Tom Best to discuss the changes that will be made. I also heard they are reviewing the appointments to every town board and plan to make a lot of changes. I haven’t heard what those changes will be, but here are a couple guesses that I think will happen.

First, I’m willing to bet that Gerry Koenig will be replaced as Chairman of the Town Planning Board. Mr. Bloabour (sp?) will be replaced as chairman of the Variance Appeals Board and the Supervisor will be listed as liaison to the Police Department. I’m sure a Deputy Supervisor will be named this year and Walters will be named as department head to several other departments, giving him much more power to hire and fire. Stay Tuned.
