Leonardsville School Building - Interested Party



With reference to the second "interested" party, LEONARDSVILLE COMMUNITY & MINISTRY CENTER .....below is a link to their site and plans.

The big open question for any party: cost to maintain and lack of public water system.  Just don't want to see the Town of Brookfield end up with keeping/maintaining, if the Mt. Markham school system sells it "cheap" to someone who can not afford the costs, just to get it off the School District's  books...[look at Bridgewater School].

The Village of Waterville ended up footing the bill for hundreds of thousands of dollars when the Mill Buildings were abandoned.  We have enough residential dump sites in this Town... look around... and the Sutton place/Rt 8 appears abandoned ...will that added to the taxpayers' backs?

BIDDING WAR? Leonardsville School Building

RUMOR has it that there are two parties now interested in the Leonardsville School Building:  "Lainey's  Pitbull Rescue" operated by Kim Strong and the Leonardsville Community and Ministry Center.  

We hear that Strong appeared at the February 12 Regular Town Board meeting regarding her organizations plans.

Please refer to Utica TOPIX....this is just a sample of the postings re: Kim Strong's operation....apparently there is history... just sayin'.... Topix link below.

TOPIX:
Ok I'll back it up, open your eyes to the facts!!
Public records- 2011 kim strong had her foster kids and animals taken away from her for the fifth and deplorable living conditions . Therer are 27 violations , papers are signed by Anthony Picente. Go to Oneida County building, public records. 
Another fact!
There is no more Utica food bank because all the money she stole from them. When they were onto her she up and left one day with the books. They kept losing all their major funding because of it. 
I've heard a lot about her doing same at Abraham house but I dont have the facts on that. 
Now she is playing on people's love of dogs. 
She is livng off of cash donations. 
Scam artist. 
You can keep a blind eye all you want but you can't change the facts.

Mueller Is Gaining Steam. Should Trump Worry?



WASHINGTON — "....With each passing day, Robert S. Mueller III, the special counsel investigating Russia’s interference in the 2016 election, seems to add another brick to the case he is building — one more indictment, one more interview, one more guilty plea. Mr. Trump and his advisers insist they are not worried because so far none of the charges implicate the president. Yet no one outside Mr. Mueller’s office knows for sure where he is heading and the flurry of recent action seems to be inexorably leading to a larger target...." Continued at: NYTimes 2/24/18

PROOF: House Speaker is so out of touch with the rest of us.

PROOF:   House Speaker is so out of touch with the rest of us....the STUPIDITY TO BRAG that the new tax bill put AN EXTRA $1.50 IN A SECRETARY's PAYCHECK...while HE PICKS up $500,000 from the KOCH BROTHERS....:

WASHINGTON — Speaker Paul D. Ryan faced a backlash on Saturday after he pointed to a secretary’s $1.50 weekly increase in take-home pay as a sign of the Republican tax plan’s success.

“A secretary at a public high school in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, said she was pleasantly surprised her pay went up $1.50 a week ... she said [that] will more than cover her Costco membership for the year,” Mr. Ryan posted on Twitter, sharing an Associated Press report about paycheck increases under the $1.5 trillion tax overhaul.

The article describes a high school secretary, Julia Ketchum, as “pleasantly surprised” that her pay went up $1.50 a week, or $78 a year, more than enough to cover an annual Costco membership. Mr. Ryan deleted the Twitter post in hours, however, after lawmakers and social media users criticized him for appearing out of touch.

“That tweet about the $1.50 a week is not a PR mistake,” Senator Brian Schatz, Democrat of Hawaii, wrote on Twitter. “It is really what they think.”

....Critics also pointed to the $500,000 in campaign donations that the conservative billionaire Koch family gave to Mr. Ryan shortly after the House passed a version of the tax overhaul in November.  NYTimes 2/4/18
