General News: Statement on Annexation Vote

Assemblyman Skoufis Statement on Monroe Board Annexation Vote
“The 164-acre annexation petition wrongly approved by the Monroe Town Board this evening sets a precedent with serious repercussions. The Town of Monroe’s own consultants alongside so many others found Kiryas Joel’s environmental reviews to be either insufficient or not in the overall public interest. I strongly believe that a more sustainable approach is needed – one that preserves the intent of annexation law while forging a more considerate relationship with nearby communities.”

When KJ can pony up $250,000 to Andrew Cuomo and you can't, you lose. http://www.capitalnewyork.com/article/albany/2015/07/8572342/filings-show-kiryas-joel-money-flowed-cuomo-after-veto
