Eleven Percent!

[Member 2358]

Amherst bracing for an 11%+ tax increase. These people are out-of-touch and/or insane. They want to buy the Boulevard Mall. Paid $33 million for street lights to save six figures a year... do the math on that one. The ongoing fiasco of Westwood. Bonkers, mate, bonkers.

Town of Amherst residents not pleased with $11M bond for MusicalFare Theatre

A group of Amherst residents are already unhappy with a tax increase. Now they are crying foul over a multimillion dollar bond for a theater.


BUFFALO, N.Y. — On the Daemen University campus is MusicalFare Theatre.

Now the Town of Amherst has a plan involving government and residents for a multi-use Amherst Central Park plan.

The $11 million bond has angered some residents who are part of the Amherst Concerned Citizens group.

"Let's put it out on a ballot," said resident Andrea Morgante, who is part of the group circulating a petition calling for a referendum."
