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?

Latest FOI Requests......

The first page is the denial for information regarding the $400,000 improvements/repairs to the Town, and the 2nd page is the actual FOI request. According to the Comptroller, John Bovenzi (he denied the FOI request) this information is "not maintained by this agency". That is odd......

The 3rd page is a request for information regarding King's Park. It's been over 21 business days since the FOI request, and by law, a denial or the information must be given within that time period. When asked, "Supervisor Heyman gave no denial no information on that one. She said she's been busy." the person who submitted the foil said, "she was told that it's been over 21 business days which is the FOI law." Supervisor Heyman told the person who submitted the FOI request, that they "don't understand government."

Nice.

General Improvements at Town Hall




This information has been submitted for FOIL again, due to the lack of detail in this current foil. We hope to have a more detailed item list of what this $400,000. is being used for.
