Sneak in the library?!?!

Remember back on December 7th, I had put up the FOI requests that took over 21 business days to get a denial, or the actual information.......and upon speaking to the "foiler", the Supervisor told this person that they "didn't understand Government"? Remember that?............


After that posting there were some back and forth e-mails between the Supervisor and the "foiler" about the FOI request etc. On December 23rd, Supervisor Heyman sent an e-mail that had the following statement: " I am sending you the packet we have as an attachment. Nothing has been finalized or decided, what I am sending is proposed no approved, tentative budget, (additional funding options have not been explored) floor plans, term sheets and my comments to questions. This is all we have. We did not and have not spent any significant time or money knowing that there would be a signature campaign and an attempt to block this temporary project."

Here are the e-mails:





In the above e-mail it states that as of 12/18/08 "There has been no discussion or agreement with anyone about selling Pinegrove at this time."
On 1/12/09 the D&C has an articlethat the West Irondequoit School District is interested in purchasing Pinegrove. "Spang said the West Irondequoit Central School District, which used to own the Pinegrove building when it was a school, has expressed interest in the site."

So, either they knew the WISD was interested, or this was something that "just" came up. How convenient that the WISD would be interested in purchasing Pinegrove all of a sudden......that would mean there would be NO reason to upgrade/renovate Pinegrove, a building the Town now owns, and they would HAVE to move to King's Park.

Here are the rest of the e-mails:







This is the attachment she sent (1st 4 pages, and the other 7 after the fold).

Please pay attention to page 4, the one with the red arrows pointing to the words:
"Sneak in the library - Currently the Library Board has not brought any formalized plan to the Town Board for consideration."

Say what?

Is it a joke? A slip-up? What exactly does that mean, anyways?
