Frustrations Over Rising Property Taxes

I am deeply concerned about ⁣the ongoing discussion related to property tax increases in our city.⁤ While I understand the financial challenges ⁢that ‌Schenectady faces, it’s important to‍ consider ​the ‌hardships it imposes on ⁢the residents.⁣ We are already grappling with‌ financial⁣ strains​ resulting from the economic ‌impediments due to COVID-19. I sincerely hope that our leaders will ⁤come up with alternative solutions or measures​ to address‍ this problem.
-Michael J. ⁤Thompson


Concern about Inadequate ⁣Street Lighting in Mont Pleasant Neighborhood

Dark, ⁣silent ‌streets are a calling card for criminal activity and ⁣traffic accidents. It is alarming that our ​Mont Pleasant neighborhood has‌ such poor street⁣ lighting. Last week, I almost hit a pedestrian while driving at night. They‌ were hard to⁢ spot in the‍ visibility offered by the⁤ present street lighting. I kindly ⁢urge the ‌concerned ⁢authorities ⁤to increase the number of street⁣ lights and ensure their regular⁣ maintenance for the safety of ⁢residents.
-Grace B. Washington


Celebrating Diversity‍ Through Food⁣ Festivals

It was heartening to see our community celebrate the multicultural food festival held last weekend in Central Park. These celebrations speak ‍volumes about our ⁢community, our hospitality, and our ability to embrace diversity. Such events not only bring community⁢ members closer but also set an example for the younger generation. I hope WHNY News ‍will continue to cover more of these positive⁤ stories to foster unity and diversity within our wonderful city.
