You have heard of the Village that Bob built. Ridiculous. The audacity of one man to claim credit for this is beyond imagination! The village was incorporated in 1932. I doubt that he had a hand in doing anything back then in the early days. This is a slap in the face to every past mayor and trustee.

He was only one of five members of the board of trustees and it takes a majority of trustees to vote on anything.

Think about it: the grade crossing elimination had been proposed by the LIRR long before he even thought about it.

The relocation of the Senior Citizen Building at Brady Park was done under the auspices and planning of former Mayor Wayne Sunderland.

I could go on and on about his self-styled accomplishments but space prohibits this.

I believe one man could accomplish all the things he claims- you must also believe in the Easter Bunny and the Tooth Fairy.

And why is a former mayor running for trustee? Is this a deal in the making with the mayoralty candidate - a back road to become mayor in the future?

Let your conscience be your guide in voting.
