Guilderland Supervisor Peter Barber wrote in a recent memo to the town’s Industrial Development Agency that, “The cause of this flooding is the tremendous amounts of stormwaters from a wide area (about 860 acres) that flow into the Town-owned McKownville Reservoir between Route 20 and Stuyvesant Plaza.”
