Guilderland

Camaraderie, said Coach Sean Davidson, is a major contributor to the team’s success. “We have solid defense, offensive power, and speed on the base paths ….,” he said. “On top of that, it’s amazing how well the kids all get along and all support each other. These kids really are friends in addition to teammates. It’s like a never-ending series of multi-night sleepovers once school gets out.”

The owner of The Apex at Crossgates apartment complex is asking an Albany County court to slash its assessed value by 88.5 percent, from about $28.5 million to $3.25 million. 

The next step will be for Kenneth Kovalchik, the town’s planner, to draft a local law for the zoning changes on which the town board will vote at its next meeting.

One thing about his future of which Adam Hawrylchak is certain: “I’m definitely going to keep lifting.”

The Guilderland Zoning Board of Appeals on July 16 gave permission to Yesorno LLC, which owns and operates Happy Days Dispensary in Farmingdale, Nassau County, to open a similarly-named dispensary at 1656 Western Ave.

The proposed aggregate signage totaled about 880 square feet, approximately 560 fewer square feet than what was proposed in June. 

Residents who spoke during the recent town board meeting felt the plan did not say enough about preserving the Albany Pine Bush, but said too much about providing water to Altamont. 

The name Helderberg Indivisible was chosen, Porter said, because people from Berne and Knox are among the protesters who come to Altamont, at the foot of the Helderbergs, for the weekly rally. She estimated “maybe 50” people belong to the group.

The $8.9 million project to replace the 95-year-old bridge began on March 17 with Winn Construction clearing trees and grading, moving earth to reconfigure the slope near the entrance to Guilderland’s Tawasentha Park.

Before the vote, Donald Lindley addressed the board, saying that he spoke on behalf of highway workers who oppose unionizing.
