Is there a salary with positions like this?
Nah, I think, but don't know for sure, that Tyler Sojka is a Democrat.Quote:

But who knows? He could get the Terranova treatment from Ruffino.
In any event, if I recall correctly, you endorsed Mr. Sojka for ZBA membership in 2017 because of his credentials and qualifications.
In fact, the only dissenter on the 2017 Town Council as I recall was Ron Ruffino, who after a spring, 2017 slight-of-hands fandango concerning a possible Lemaster appointment, was intent on naming two individuals whose experience was limited to the Real Estate world after the November elections.
Do I have all of that right Gorja?
I further understand Mr. Sojka's qualifications to have been highly enhanced during his tenure on the ZBA.
Also, I am curious about the feelings of Sojka's fellow ZBA members. Any insight into their perceptions of Mr. Sojka?
If you have a candidate for that $1, 800 a year patronage plumb, whose knowledge, experience, and ZBA service credentials exceed Mr. Sojka's, kindly enlighten the readers with its name and curriculum vitae.
You're funny, Mark. The dear old Conservative Dawn Gaczewski never once proposed appointing Mrs Lemaster to the Zoning board.
Jill Monacelli who has been on the zoning board since 2013 had requested to be nominated to the position. I've seen no communication from Sojka indicating his interest.
I never endorsed Mr Sojka as Zoning board chairman.
Democrat. Republican or ****ocrat, it doesn't matter, he's Leary's chairman's son
Speaking about relatives of Town Chairman, how many Deputy Supervisors does Lancaster need?Quote:

Without intending to write ill of Ms. Monacelli, and I am not, once again, you seemingly are extolling the thin virtues of an exclusive measure of time to the apparent exclusion of the broad, substantive world of cumulative qualifications.Quote:

But seriously Gorja, from what I know of Mr. Sojka, he has an in depth knowledge of urban studies; an ongoing eagerness to absorb all aspects of Lancaster unique residential culture; a heart embedded in Lancaster's proud past, which with a combined with a first-rate, professionally trained mind, which holds an impressive vision for Lancaster's future.
All and all, a very unique young man in these troubled times, when so many are eager to disregard the past.
I understand from a number of sources that Mr. Tyler was approached by fellow ZBA members to assume the Chairmanship.Quote:

I am told Mr. Sojka was the membership's choice.
I never wrote that you did...Quote:

I get a day off and had to shovel twice already. No rest for this wicked woman. Since I don't hear Breezy's voice backing me up anymore and taking some of the heat, you and Lee can do your thing without opposition.
Besides that, I haven't bowled in 27 years and I signed up for an Alzheimer's bowling fundraiser. I need to get some practice in.
After my respite, I'll be back :)
Ah it is never fighting with you Gorja, just some principled back and forth.Quote:

Not entirely applicable, but in this case, one could possibly apply the idiom "Stepping Over Dollars To Save Pennies."
