You did — if you live in New Castle. At least, you're paying for it, like it or not. Was This Deal Legal? It violates the spirit of the law, and possibly the letter of the law, too. Mr. Green admits public ly that the law says the town cannot make such a purchase; he boasts that he and his associates \found a way to do it\ in spite of the law. Here's how they did it; The law says flatly you cannot use public money for a private purpose. To get around the law, Mr. Green used town money to buy the land, and promised to pay for the building out of income from concessions. Maybe this kind of reasoning would stand up in court; maybe it wouldn't. How Much Did the Station Really Cost? $55,000 plus $1,251.49 a year ir» taxes we'll no longer collect, (to earn $1,251.49 a year, you'd have to invest more than $25,000 at 5%.) So here's our bill: $ 24,500 for land $ 30,500 for the building $ 25,000 at 5% interest in lost taxes $ 80,000 - Total cost of a station we don't really need. And that's not all! That's Not All? You Mean It Cost More Than $80,000? Sdrry but a few other details were overlooked, and the town is obligated to — pay costs of physical alterations needed to accommodate the railroad — pay costs of maintenance and repair of the building, driveways, and access areas — provide fire insurance and pay premiums oni extended coverage — pay additional sums over and above the in surance to replace the building if it should be destroyed by fire. — pay the cost of liability insurance — pay the cost of a temporary railroad station if this one becomes unusable. Suppose I Live in Millwood or Mount Kisco. This Means Nothing to Me. Only if your taxes mean nothing to you. You paid, and you'll keep on paying, for years to come. Pay, Pay, Pay. That's All We Do. Who Made This Deal Anyway? New Castle's \Throw Away\ Town Board—men who have literally thrown your money away on a deal that need never have been made. So, They Made a Bad Deal. What Would Democrats Have Done? Protected the area by zoning laws, not given way to panic, and negotiated firmly with the railroad. Surely a town board with three lawyers should have done as well as a private individual. I've Got a Headache. And Wasn't There Something About Parking? Indeed there was and is. The G.O.P. paid $I8,« 000 to pave the parking area—without solicit ing bids. ChalleRged or> this high-handed action, they reply, \Oh we found out who the low bid der on paving materials was, at the beginning of the year. So why seek bids again?\ By this kind of fuzzy reasoning, a highway superintendent could pave every square foot of New Castle at a cost of millions — so long as he bought the materials from the January low bidder. Again, the spirit of the law has been broken — and possibly the letter of the law, as well. What Can I Do About All This? Make sure nothing like it happens again.
