Well, now I guess 4 people in town will be happy. The three who came out to support this and Gerry Wagner. Congratulations Gerry. I guess its true what they say, the squeaky wheel gets the oil!
Good thing a few more people didn't show up, they may have considered if you blow your nose too loud while walking on Main Street.

I love your comment W

Would this new law cover loud profane music that was once playing at the town park in which we were told there was nothing they could do.

Of course few of us will ever see the actual text of this new law - which makes it very difficult to abide by - since we really don't know what it says. Of course most laws are like this until you run afoul of them...

darn, I guess that's the end of the all night Bacchanals....

TOTAL BS - "It also exempts celebratory horn-blowing after a sporting event, like the convoys that drive through the town and village after a win by a baseball all-star team."

How does one separate celebratory from other convoys? HONK- HONK!!

Cornwall is run by a system of Cronyism. If your in the Club you get what you want.

I understand that elected officials have to take some verbal abuse. It
goes with the territory and, generally I let it go at that. However, I
thought some of the comments made should be answered.

A response to comments in the Feb. 12th edition:

To d Baiocco:--Three people showed up to support the noise law. Gerry
Wagner was not one of them. FYI--he is against it! Where were you, and
others, who are against it?

S. Wilkenson:--Wow! you have NEVER heard anyone blow their horn or
using a cell phone while driving! I'm sorry you haven't driven a car
or walked near a roadway for so long. If you do, you will see
widespread, flagrant disregard for the cell phone law.

F. Ostrander:--Anyone can obtain copies of proposed laws, board
meetings, etc. from the Town Clerk's office.

B. Langston:--C'mon Bob--You don't think anyone can tell if it is a
sport victory celebration or not?? In my 56 years in Cornwall, I've
never seen any other type of "convoy."

I. Schneider:--I resent your accusation of "Cronyism." I am proud to
be a member of a Town Board where every member is dedicated to doiing
what is right for the people of this great town! Please, give me an
example of the "Cronyism" you say exists.

P.S. I don't remember seeing any of you at the Public Hearing.

I guess everyones been cooped up too long due to all this Global Warning. Sleigh riding at the Golf Course was great this morning. Tried to keep the kids from expressing their joy too loud. ;)

Wilkenson--I guess there are a lot of people (like me) who are not too bright in Cornwall because I haven't heard anyone say "What a brilliant piece of satire!" or "Wow! what a great KIDDER!" But, thanks, I appreciate your enlightening explanation.

Al Mazzoca,
There was a room full of concerned Cornwall residents that showed up over two months ago to the original meeting for the Town ordinance Law. You were present, as I was and the majority of the room was CLEARLY AGAINST it. However, it seemed to me from that meeting that the board had already made up its mind. You can see my letters to both the Cornwall Local & on this website pleading with my fellow residents to speak out against it.
Further, it was Gerry Wagner who was the start of this town ordinance. When did he change his mind and decide he is against it?
Further, no verbal abuse was present in any of my comments.

Here is the link to my letter:

I wrote further too much, its hard to see that in these little boxes. Also, sorry for the spelling of your name Al. I missed the other C.....

It's OK--I used an e instead of i in Steve's name. (Sorry) Thanks, to both of you, for sharing your views. If, at any time, you want to contact me, directly, my e-mail is [email protected] and my phone number is listed.

What a brilliant piece of satire!

Wow! what a great KIDDER!!

HONK HONK!!
