Restore the Celebration of the Winter Solstice

No One has Done More for Philipstown Than Mazzuca
      Dear Editor: I have been a member of the Philipstown Recreation Commission for over twenty-five years, and for about half of that time Bill Mazzuca has been the Town's Supervisor, the fifth one I have worked with.

How It's Supposed to Work
      Dear Editor: James Lovell's letter of last week, where he lauds the Town Board for how well they're handling the Foundry Pond mess, made me wonder which Town Board he was talking about. Yes, the TB meeting of October 4 was handled well; Richard Shea did all the talking and dealt admirably with a ...

What are Tamagna's Qualities?

Misperception Regarding Curbside Recycling
      To the Editor: There is a gross misperception in Philipstown that curbside recycling is in danger of being eliminated. This is not true!

Savaging the Competition is an Irresponsible Campaign Tactic
      To the Editor: Parties interested in shaping town government in Philipstown are reducing this election to personal preferences, masked by general accusations about integrity. They assign nepotism, collusion, gross incompetence and corruption. This is tough stuff in a big city, even worse when acc...
