Since you are clearly and overwhelming the proven lapdog of Dino Fudoli, maybe get a hold of him and get him to do his job with the information you seek. As the Number on boot-licker of Fudoli, I would assume you know how to reach the man.
Stop your whining and do it yourself.
Geeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
Any normal human being would just move on and get the job done, either themselves, or another way with someone who have the technical ability to post the darn information.
Gee, maybe ask the GOP beloved town clerk, oh heck, she probably would need a case handout to do the job. Sounds like any volunteer could accomplish the matter.
Maybe you could do it, without a cash handout!
SO DAMN WHAT!
Ron decided not to continue on. It's his right. Much like your right Lee Chowaniec to continue to whine and whine and whine about anything and everything.
Yawn!
I say good for Ron. Looks to me like Dino just wanted window dressing, or worse, a shiny object like a flashy ring to wear and show off to crow about.
GOOD FOR YOU RON RUFFINO!!!!!
Poor little cooped up Lee. The misery just oozes and oozes from nearly every single post he writes.
The hate is eating at his brain!
LOL
I am sure Fudoli will get his job done, and done well.
I am equally sure that, as a former LIDA Chairman, he does not need on the job training, nor do I think that he needs to rely on the wisdom, insights, and heretofore undisclosed information held by a self-admitted, less-than-prepared out-going LIDA Chairman, eh?

"The LIDA Board was a topic at the Feb. 3 Lancaster Town Board work session, where Ruffino addressed some of Leary’s concerns. After heated discussion between Leary and Ruffino regarding Leary’s concerns, Ruffino stated he was new in his position and still learning."
Perhaps Mr. Ruffino was the architect of his own LIDA Chairmanship demise?
After all, did he not himself say that he was "still learning" in his position?
I don't recall Mr. Fudoli, or any other LIDA Chairman ever saying such a thing.
Gorja, a Conservative majority on the Town Council voted to appoint Supervisor Ruffino, just as a Democrat-controlled Town Council voted to appoint Supervisor Fudoli.
To what I assume is your point, as I understand things, neither the past Democrat-led, nor the present Conservative-led, Town Council(s) had a controlling voice in the selection of the LIDA Chairman.
Does not the LIDA membership vote for its own officers, including its Chairman?
Reference: https://www.lancasterbee.com/article...da-violations/Quote:
Ruffino stated at the work session that LIDA is a completely separate government agency.
“First of all, LIDA has nothing to do with the town board, except appointing people,” Ruffino said.
If Mr. Ruffino was not re-elected to serve as Chairman, perhaps it was for reasons that were truly non-political?
Conversely, perhaps Mr. Fudoli's election was a meritorious-based decision, resultant from his past service as LIDA Chairman?Quote:

Everything is politics!
Prior to and after Supervisor Giza’s term in office (1996-2011), only Lancaster Industrial Agency membership appointee names were recognized at the Town Board’s Organizational Meeting - held at the first town board meeting of the year. It was the LIDA membership that elected its Chair at their first Organizational Meeting held shortly thereafter.
It was during the entire Giza administration that the language of the resolution changed: Giza , Robert H, be and is hereby appointed Member and Chairman, Industrial Development Agency.
The language changed back when Supervisor Fudoli took office in 2012. He was listed as ‘appointed member of the Industrial Development Agency’ – not Chair., not Supervisor. He was elected Chair by the LIDA membership. The same can be said of Ruffino – appointed as member of the Industrial Development Agency, not as Supervisor of the Town of Lancaster or as Chair of the Industrial Development Agency.
The LIDA is a self-governing agency and elects its Chair. Perhaps you can explain how Supervisor Giza was recognized as LIDA Chair in every year of his 16-year term before a LIDA board meeting took place. Politics was not involved, eh? Much ado about nothing!
It’s late, I’m old and tired and will deal with your cohort in the morning,
Lapdog? Boot licker? Hilarious!
I have not spoken with or exchanged emails/texts with Mr. Fudoli since he left office. No reason to, then or now. He is well qualified to Chair the LIDA and that was obvious when he was the only one nominated for the position and elected with only Ruffino’s ‘no’ vote.
I wish Fudoli and the new board well. It was time for a change in membership. Some of those members were throwbacks to the Giza era – coming and going throughout the years.
Whining? Nah, happy as a clam. Your conniving, deceitful political team got clobbered in the primary and the election as well. You and your guys are the whining losers, so much so the head whiner left the LIDA team – quitting on his constituents as well.
The next time you look into a mirror, you will see the 'loser'! LOL

Nah, not whining, just wondering what’s holding LIDA from taking off in updating its website thereby providing the public access to information. The only thing that openly changed was the quitting of an appointed board member and the Chief Financial Officer (CFO). Did their quitting play a role in the delay?Quote:

Dino has a new ring?
Nah, as I earlier posted, happy as a clam. The voters of Lancaster saw through the deceitful, Machiavellian collusion of the aligned Democrat and Republican Parties and overwhelmingly voted for Conservative – Real Republican candidates at the primary and November elections.Quote:

Whose brain is being eaten out is the Lancaster Democratic Party. Once having a plurality of near 2-1 in registered voters over the Republicans, the gap has been dramatically closed. It is the Conservative Party that has grown most in party registered voters – and the number of blanks (unaffiliated voters) – my people.
Lancaster Town Residents – 45,106
Registered Voters:
Democrats – 12,037
Republicans – 10,574
Blanks – 7,658
Conservatives – 1,422
Working Families – 198
Other – 1,514
Perhaps you can ask the departed CFO who really controls putting the information on the LIDA website and why it is not taking place yet – but will be shortly.Quote:

Why the shot at the ‘beloved’ Town Clerk? The Town Clerk has nothing to do with the LIDA.
And do you honestly think that someone is not getting paid to update / place information on the LIDA website?
The town is changing, and in a good way. The old guard, the ‘this is the way we have always did things’ cronies are disappearing and you and your ilk’s only agenda to keep power is to personally attack opposing candidates or anyone voicing an opinion other than yours – like you attempted to do with Dickman and Pilato in the recent election and failed.
The hate is on your side, Sleazy!
In the agenda for the January 18 LIDA meeting, there was a resolution to appoint Leza Braun as website administrator.Quote:

Would she be the only with the responsibility of updating their website?

From an October 2021 LIDA meeting, it stated the following
So they do have time.

Again, ask your friend(s) / cohorts in high places - or call the office of the ex-CFO of LIDA, who happens to be the Town of Lancaster Director of Administration & Finance and ask whose responsibility it is to update and maintain the LIDA website and gets paid for doing so. She does owe the public that much.
When the current LIDA board gets the agency squared away, the membership is to be commended for the time and effort it put in to do so.
It is time to open the door and let the sunshine in. The public deserves the openness and transparency it is always promised.
Hopefully, Lancaster's past year of extraordinary political deceit has come to an end! Fortunately, the voters saw through the deceit and voted into office candidates having the best interests of the town in mind.
