Guilderland Issues
Guilderland should have a fair assessment process. The typical homeowner is assessed at or near the full value of their home. Many properties are assessed well below their full value, making the average homeowner pay more than their fair share. All properties should be assessed at their fair value. After the 2005 revaluation, the Grievance Day process was botched, and hundreds of residents waited around for hours. The grievance process should be handled better. Guilderland should provide better services to residents. The pool at Tawasentha Park is rundown, and our town officials are not providing services comparable to what we see in other towns. Parents take their kids to The Crossings in Colonie, or take them swimming at town pools in Clifton Park. Guilderland officials are careless with our money. The Guilderland Town Board has been spending money like crazy, dramatically increasing our taxes, with nothing to show for it. They hide their excesses in budgets that are not publicly accessible. This secrecy has to stop. People have a right to know how the Town is spending our money. |
