>Village Manager James M. Ten Hoeve recently announced that David F. Bolger, a local real estate investor and philanthropist with offices on Chestnut Street, will completely fund the planned “finding” signage project at Village Hall.
As a result of the funding level offered by Mr. Bolger, Ten Hoeve reported that better quality signs would be erected than initially approved by Village Council members. The new signs, intended to help residents and visitors find their way about the municipal complex, should be installed within the next 30-60 days.
During his status report to Council members about the sign project, Mr. Ten Hoeve revealed that the latest recent winner of the most frequently asked question at Village Hall was: “Where’s the municipal court?” Does this mean that there’s a ticket blitz of sorts taking place?
>Bolger to the rescue again
>Regarding a “ticket blitz” I would say so, and its not necessarily for law enforcement purposes, it appears to be more of a “money making” issue at the end of a month!
>Good job Mr. Bolger.
Now the town can waste more money on QUALITY signs that are in english.
Sure beats the original purchase order for signs that were made of use copy machine paper with had written translation from China.
Dave can’t you give some FREE advice to these people so they stop wasting our tax dollars.
>Wait till the town finds out that all NEW signs in public buildings must be multi lingual.
The signs Bolger just paid for are wasted and now we have to reorder new signs.
>wonderful law. Which languages other than english and spanglish must be displayed?
>10:13
The building inspector should know.
Maybe they should look into it before ordering. If it’s not too late.
I’m not telling.
>dave we need you.help all of us so we dont get laid off.
>whatever.i hope the new sign is befitting the police palace.
>Nice, 10:13. “Spanglish?” How rude.
>Hey Pete,
Readup, Spanglish is a dialect spoken in some carribean islands and some south american countries to get by with english speaking inhabitants.
Its not rude and it works.
I also know spanglish is spoken in local hospitals to converse with spanish speaking patients.
Go to bookends and pick up a book on Spanglish.
Try it on your gardner’s help. It works!
>Are the signs waterproof and do they float?
>Make sure those signs not only are waterproof and that they float but that they are painted with glow in the dark paint. You need to be prepared when the tropical storm hits at night.
>12:04
They have a floating generator system on the north side of the building just in case to power the fans and dehumidifiers on the ground level–well, ground level in the back.
I think they should fill in graydon and us it as the parking lot and use the hall’s lot in place of graydon.
>Village Hall should be outfitted with one giant glow in the dark orange life vest. Problem solved.
>David, you’re a good guy. I just hate to see you waist money on the Taj Mahal.
But if you must, like that poster said: make sure the signs float.
