ReMEHmber when the Supervisor told everyone that:
"...the grant money cannot be used to upgrade Pinegrove."
AND
"The grant can't be used to updgrade or maintain an existing building,.....any improvements to Pinegrove would have to come from taxes."
Both quotes were made in December 2008, wayyyy before Joe Morelle rode into town with his $125,000 grant. She was talking about CDBG, and, she was quite wrong on that.
(In the below article, the reporter stated that "Every other school building from that era has been torn down." That is false. There are 4 school buildings from this era in West Irondequoit that are still being used. 2 are used as day care centers and have many children in them, 1 has been converted to a church and then there is Pinegrove.)
ReMEHmber the silly notes she used to send us? Oh, I can reMEHmber it like it was yesterday. Mary Ellen, you rapscallion! Good times.....good times.
(If you notice the postage permit #1758......and compare that to old Dem political mailers from the last election, you can see that they are the same. The IDC paid for these mailers, under the guise of a "group" called the "Seniors First Committee", which has the same address as Irena Scoglio - the chair for the IDC and VP of the Library Board.)So many good MEHmories.
ReMEHmber when she wanted to take money from the Home Improvement grant to fund the King$ Pork plan?
ReMEHmber when she said that the Town didn't own the land around the building? What a hoot that was! Fun times.
ReMEHmber when she played that dirty trick on everyone and let them keep repeating the same incorrect information? Ahhh Mary Ellen, ever the prankster!
Poor Mr. Schoonmaker. Given the wrong information by the Town.
Poor Mrs. Evans. Given the wrong information by the boss, but took the high road and apologized for the mistake after she found out the truth.
Poor Mr. Domm, victim to one of MEH's funny pranks.
Poor PBM at Public Input, not corrected by the Supervisor:
Poor Stephanie Aldersley not corrected by the Supervisor:
ReMEH mber when she tricked us taxpayers when she said that she went with one polling place to "keep costs manageable" because "the town would be required to do a special mailing, alerting residents to the location of their polling place"?
.......and then she went ahead and spent over $7,000 of taxpayer money on a special mailer with her "facts" on it? A mailer she didn't have to do? ReMEHmber that?
ReMEHmber when she told everyone over and over that the "Town has no plans to sell the Pinegrove building."? (It's on the above voter mailer.)
But then, in 2006 she paid Tim Poley thousands of taxpayer dollars to do a "Financial Evaluation of the Senior Center", and the disclaimer stated he was working on a purchase price?
Definitely some Kodak moments. I'm sure there will be more MEHmories made in the next few months.
