GUILDERLAND — A 24-year-old man from Mississippi was killed in a Western Turnpike car crash on Tuesday night.

A release from the Guilderland Police Department says events unfolded this way:

Through the work of six groups, another 8.3 acres has been added to the globally rare Albany Pine Bush Preserve.

Neighbors of the Knightes property who live on West Old State Road have complained to the town for more than a year about the dumping of tree waste on property adjacent to theirs.

At the time of Kentish Bennett’s death, the mother of his two children described Bennett as talented, lovely, and gentle. “He was too kind of a person to die that way,” she said.

Troy Miller is proposing to build 10 new homes on the 11 subdivided lots in Altamont. 

The Altamont tax rate for next year will increase from $2.095 per $1,000 of assessed value to $2.15 per $1,000. According to the village, a home with a full-market value of $443,000 will pay about 20 more dollars in property taxes next year, while a home with a full-market value of $241,00 would pay about $11 more.
