After 50 minutes of questioning the developer’s agents and the town’s engineer, the board scheduled a public hearing on the proposal for Aug. 19 at 7 p.m. at Guilderland Town Hall. The last hearing on the proposal, in November 2023, lasted two hours. All of the citizens who spoke, many of them neighbors of the proposal, were against it.
Supervisor Peter Barber said the delay is because the Public Employee Relations Board “has possession of the cards and, if a majority of the cards are determined by PERB to be valid, then I will ask the board to voluntarily recognize CSEA.”
