Not getting money’s worth in Niskayuna
It is discouraging to see that our taxes in Niskayuna are going up again. What exactly are we seeing with these increases? For one, I am not exactly sure.
Since Fieldstone Acres opened on Consaul Road, our water taxes have gone through the roof. I believe the HOA fees paid by those who live there should accommodate any water and sewage issues caused by the integration into the town sewer system.
Since we started paying for lawn and leaf pick up, I see less service than in the surrounding townships. Let’s not even discuss loose leaf pick up. In December, I shouldn’t have to see leaves raked into the road and over the white line from inconsiderate people. These leaves do become hazards when they are wet and cold.
Letter: Texas lawsuit supporters real danger to our democracy

If I sue Edward J. Vining ( Supreme Court wrong to dismiss Texas lawsuit, Dec. 20) for parking his car in his driveway, should my case against him be dismissed? That is exactly what the Texas attorney general’s lawsuit was: an attempt to sue four independent states for their voting rules.
These states had every right to set their own voting rules just as Vining has the legal right to park in his driveway; it is none of Texas’ business just as it is none of my business where Vining parks his car. There is no justiciable issue and no damage to Texas.
