Real Citizens of Troy - Part II

This is your last call to action, my fellow Real Citizens of Troy! Today’s the day. Yepper. Sure is. Today is the last day that we can comment on the proposed expansion of the County Waste Transfer Station down on Main & Water Streets in South Troy. And we’ve been raising quite a stink about the whole process. And, yes, the pun is intended. And, no, I’m not talking about the stench of trash. I’m talking about the stench from the incompetence that allowed the process to breakdown in the first place.

I figured out a long time ago that issues don’t go away when one ignores them. Instead, what happens is that they grow fungus. I’m just saying that issues tend to mushroom when you ignore them. If an issue is not properly dealt with upfront, there can be a peck of difficulty trying to eradicate the spreading spores. 

I’ve taken my stand. It’s time for you to take yours. Click to email Nancy Baker or call the Region 4 permitting office at 357-2456.
