Truth be told Wag, when the merging of the Town and Village police forces took place, the agreement was acrimonious at best between the elected officials. Animosities must have cooled to the point where the Village is now allowing use of the Municipal building to the Town and is paying the amount of sales tax agreed upon.
As to the construction of the soccer fields, don't forget about the lacrosse fields now being discussed. Remember, it's for the kids. Better them than some low income family have to give up food or medications to pay taxes to provide them necessities at this time.
And, go easy on the use of the vacant Depew library. Giza is starting to really get pissed and is threatening to put the dog control department there. Remember, it's the Village's fault for putting those zoning restrictions on that property - at least that's what Abraham said in the Buffalo News the other day.
