  • Wow how rude. Isn't the whole point of a town meeting to let residents speak up and have a say in their local government? Carpenter is just harassing this woman and instead of answering her or addressing her question, he's being unnecessarily condescending and aggressive.

  • the taxes are so much because our schools are some of the best in the country

  • Regardless of agenda, it was a valid question and one he failed to handle well. He probably should have deflected that or said he would look into doing something like that instead of being verbally aggressive. It would have just been so easy to compliment her point and will "consider" and "try" to do something like that. What is the problem with posting town laws (not even salaries)? That would have appeased her.

  • As Hillary would say... "This is a vast right wing conspiracy..."

  • A Pittsford Stepford wife, what a great town!

  • It depends on how you view it. I thought it was very interesting, and it reminds me that I should be more interested in how our town government conducts itself. At least they're getting their opinion heard. That's what democracy is all about. Stupid no, opinionated yes. We need more activism like this in town government.

  • Well done, there is no accountability for the current Town of Pittsford government. Time for the taxpayers to push back... it really is time for change. Great place to live, but poorly managed... from the top down. Can't wait for the next installment, didn't even know it existed until I saw it in the B-P Post.

    Isn't it time for a website -- like the one used a few years ago to stop the senior's center?

  • I agree with the poster who said that it was obvious that Minnerd and Slade had an agenda. I think they both did a great disserve to Mr. Carpenter and the people of Pittsford. They made themselves look silly rather than the other way around. They should both be ashamed.

    And, just for clarification purposes: I am neither a Republican nor a Democrat.

  • Living in Pittsford, it seems that if I travel to the Town Hall with a question. The people I hire to work there would just give me an answer. If i was challenged by some joker who obviously forgets who he really works for, i would let him have it like the lady at RG&E gets it when my Electric goes out! He isnt to blame for the site she is asking about but handles the situation like his constituent is insulting him and all he works with.

  • Why would anybody complain about Bill Carpenter and the town of Pittsford Government? we live in a democratic society, and if they were doing a poor job, these people would not be re elected time after time. Pittsford is one of the most sought after communities to live in all of New York, and the extremely well run town government is at the heart of it.
