DCC Scoping Presentation To Be First Public Session

DCC Scoping Session

.

NOTE: Part 13 was omitted due to an issue with the recorder.
To view beginning, see script, below.

.


.

1. Good Neighbors ; People who look out for each other.

a. Friends who would practically do anything to assist their neighbor/friend, even come together and give fiscal assistance.

b. Band together to bear positive and or negative input on all issues pertaining to them.

c. Have insight on surroundings and call for action to keep Everyone From Harms Way.

d. Fight to the fullest from others who endanger them, keeping focus on the SCOPE of the issues

e. Allow for a complete PICTURE before actions are taken into considerations.

2. EMERGENCY SERVICES

a. Police, Fire, Ambulance, E-911, Hospitals.

b. How man times must you hear WE ARE CURRENTLY UNDERSTAFFED , OVERRBURDENED, UNDER-EQUIPPED AND OVER-WORKED. How Many ?

c. How many times since 2/08 when the D.C. legislation passed the Resolution , Has DCC sat with All Officials in one room and Discussed the Cumulitive Impacts?

3. LEAD AGENCY REQUESTS :

4. a. You DO NOT have the BLESSING as stated multiple times- From the D.C. Legislators / After all : Does a 13/ 12 vote really mean a BLESSING ?

b. When given statistics to NYS DEC Commissioner Peter Grannis stating you have reached an AGREEMENT with local Emergency Services:

4.a.1. This was as stated from DCC null and voided if the dorms were not built by Fall of 2009, was it not stated this way ?

a.2. By telling telling the NYS DEC Comm. “That an Agreement was in place “, was this not a false statement mis-leading the Commissioner in a direction of Favoritism toward the Project ?

a.3. Again by mis-leading the Commissioner and using ASSY., Joel Miller and HIS BLESSING AND HIS influence was one of the most pronounced and DIS-reguarding LACK OF RESPECT showingTOTAL DIS-Respect for the COMMUNITY , ONE THAT YOU ARE SUCH GOOD NEIGHBORS WITH !!!

5. NO SCOPING

a. After all why now would you want the Community to Come Together and Give ALL their POSITIVE Imput for this project .

b. One that only a Handful of DCC staff, Students, Faculty and Teachers want.

c. Why would DCC want a Scoping Session for the Public already knowing HOW THEY FEEL?

d. This is a publicity stunt, Some Publicity for the College so it can say “ WE SPOKE TO THE PUBLIC AND GAVE THEM A CHANCE TO BE HEARD, AND ADDRESS THEIR CONCERNS”, This is by far One of the most blatent and uncaring actions the College could have ever produced.

6. CLOSING

a. By literally giving half Truths and other Mis-Leading statements : both verbal and written to the ones who have the GO AHEAD with this project and not ; “ FIXING the CUMULATIVE NEGATIVE IMPACTS FIRST “, shows the Community you are so caring for “ WE DON”T CARE WHAT YOU SAY, DO OR OTHERWISE BRING ACTIONS AGAINST US, WE ARE DOING WHAT WE WANT TO DO AT ANY COSTS TO THE COMMUNITY !!!

b. By the way , I left out the ROADS in my statements, WE all know what the truth is about “ The Roads are adequate and Traffic Will BE Lowered because there WILL BE LESS Traffic “.

c. PHASE 1 OF HOW MANY PHASES- I GUESS WE’LL FIND OUT SOON ENOUGH

The Community did not come out for this. I sure can’t blame them one bit ! When will the DCC address the residents concerns- NEVER !! This will be played out to the end. The Financial Players and Back Door Politics will Prevail, THE COMMUNITY WILL CHANGE DRASTICALLY- WE WILL BEAR THE BURDENS UN-ACCEPTABLE, AGAIN !!! My personal opinion.

Status on Assembly Bill A772-2009

Updated On: Aug 02, 2009 (13:55:00)

August 2, 2009- In May of 2009, Local 2623 members, along with Fire Commissioners from the Fairview Fire District went to Albany to speak with our lawmakers about legislation that could potentially help our tax situation in Fairview.

Assembly Bill A772 can be seen here- http://assembly.state.ny.us/leg/?bn=A772-2009

As you can see, the bill has been referred to the Ways and Means committee in February. Since then, we have had no updates to give on why the legislation has gone nowhere. So we ask our esteemed Assemblyman Joel Miller, what have you been doing to assure that A772-2009  gets passed through to provide real help to your constituents?

Assemblyman Miller, our members are still waiting for you to visit us at the firehouse to talk about building construction…….

Contact Assemblyman Miller to ask him what he has been doing to further Assembly Bill A772-2009.  His Contact information is listed below:

Assemblyman Miller, Waiting for months now for your reply to our last request about statements: The Study done in the year 2000 showing where issues can be resolved and fixed in Fairview. Still waiting for some reply other than the last 4 of NO REPLY YET according to your secretary. The only study we know of was not a study but a report called : THE CHANGING TIMES REPORT ” , Done in 2005.

All,

Please feel free to release information that is transpiring in our community.

With the statements being made and presented to the public on behalf of the officials, some further FACTS should be made relevant to this matter.

Mark Bendell has been completely forthright in his statements to our Assemblyman, yet some major newspapers have not released the total picture.

With the issue in the community getting greater in Failed Safety to everyone in this District, it seems to me that proper and immediate news releases be met. This problem bears the respect and should be a priority to the people we serve.

I am not going to single out the faults here, merely get this the further movement to a corrective solution. Again, and I can not emphasize this enough, it is a County Issue, Town Issue and certaintly a Local Issue.

Thank You, for presenting the public with previous information, I/we need to continue a trek to make this failure of the Safety of the residents, non residents and our officials in the emergency services protected PROPERLY .

If anyone missed Mr. Bendells previous article of Assy. Millers- merely let me know and I will provide them.

Respectfully,

Mr. James R. Doxsey
Dist. 1 Dutchess County Legislator (845) 337-0026

Letters From Residents DCC/ Miller

Sent: Monday, June 01, 2009 6:02 PM
Subject: Your endorsement of DCC to be it’s own lead agency.

Dear Assemblyman Miller,

I just wanted to let you know that your deeds do not go unnoticed.

In the past I would be one of the first to thank you for your support of our dilemma in Fairview.

Now I want to be one of the first to tell you that your latest non-support of Fairview in supporting DCC being their own lead agency for their residence halls project has left me speechless, saddened, dismayed and frustrated with your actions.

Your most recent action in supporting DCC to be its own lead agency is just another feather in the cap of those who seek to dissolve the Fairview Fire District. The same holds true for the Fairview Fire District Board of Fire Commissioners, if they should accept any agreement with DCC for remuneration to mitigate the negative impact the Residence Halls will have on the life safety of Fairview Firefighters and the residents they are sworn to protect. Unless, of course, such remuneration is equal to and not less than, what DCC would pay if they were a taxpaying entity which would be a far cry from the meagher $75,000 they originally offered and is now null and void.

While Dr. Conklin trashes support of the college from the community, his faculty and staff, you are right there to back him up. This is truly an outrage.

It’s time to put public life safety, the community and taxpaying constitutents FIRST above political interests. If you have any intention of saving any face at all in the community you were elected to serve, your strong support for this Assembly Bill and bringing whatever weight you may hold to strongly encourage its passage in both houses in Albany with all haste would be most pertinent.

Who will save us Assemblyman Miller while we constantly watch our homes decreasing in value, our taxes rising, our limited incomes taxed further to death by Governor Patterson with Albany’s latest round of new taxes (including but not limited to the MTA Tax) and our professional firefighters stretched beyond the limit. Will they be able to serve us when we need them or will they be too busy servicing those who receive free rides at our expense with their ever expanding tax-free campuses.

Some letters from the Residents. It seems when Fire gets HOT enough for the Political Politicians, actions arise. We’ll see, but this Legislator isn’t waiting for them. I only have another 25 years left, this must get DONE now !!!
