GUILDERLAND — A Schenectady man driving a stolen SUV, police say, purposely crashed into a police patrol car on Monday before he and a passenger fled on foot.

A Tuesday release from the Guilderland Police said events unfolded this way:

The housing for people 55 and older would consist of three buildings of four units each and would be located near the intersection of Carmen and West Old State roads.

The board weighed the trade-off between the developer’s commitment to clean up the site and to improve a dangerous intersection against the concerns over increased traffic and the inappropriateness of a four-story complex in a suburban part of town.

The proposed new facility will maintain the same level of service and eliminate the space constraints at the current facility.”

Peter Golden described the optimism he felt in his youth with Kennedy’s election: “The country’s going to move again … we’re going to dance on the moon and all these things people felt when he got elected — and quite the opposite of course is what happened. I wanted to try and explain that feeling of loss to my son and to my daughter-in-law and why their parents would look back in a different way than they do.”
