Another “Compromise” Press Conference, But Still No Compromises
We found it amusing this morning that Mark Aesch of the RGRTA ‘announced’ his plan for compromise today which consisted of nothing but re-stating known facts, much like Maggie’s similar grandstanding yesterday. City Newspaper thinks they are preparing to pass the buck onto city council and the mayor for ‘ruining’ Ren Square:

It’s becoming more and more evident that the Main & Clinton board is unwilling to get past the politics and play nice for the benefit of the city. Take a look at the comments from residents, readers, concerned citizens on these recent articles:

“Stay strong Mayor Duffy. Hopefully you will not back down in the next few days. The People of the City actually do NOT want this ‘thing’. Granted the $$ won’t come to Roch, but at least they might be put to a better use at a later time….or not. But whatever, we don’t need Ren Square!”

“Is this woman deaf and dumb? The citizens of Rochester do not want to give up this amount of real estate taxes for her and her cronies. Maggie move some of the county property from your taxrolls for your fansty. ”

“This has been a PPPP (PissPoorPlanedProject) from the begining. The Maggie could care less about the City & County taxpayers what. The only ones that are looking out for the taxpayer at this point is the Mayor and City Council. ”

“Brooks, Aesh, the whole bunch of them are nothing but arrogant crooks who actually believe they are modern day royalty! I can’t wait till these slimy dirtbags go away. They want to use our tax dollars to build a “legacy” for themselves… to Maggie Crooks, and Mark Aesch; If Ren. square is sooo important, use your own money, NOT OURS! ”
