i, along with another half dozen members of the White Plains Tea Party, sat down about a month ago with our local rat assemblyman (buchwald)....the same guy whose campaign ran on a “lets vote our principles, not the Tea Party values” and “won” the election by a handful of votes....
we had his head spinning on every issue and he could not give a straight answer- i brought up this very topic...”the gov’t wants to dictate to landlords whom they can and cannot rent to” I got a lot of “uh, duh, well” but no answer...
bottom line was this was a settlement from the prior county executive, a rat, and HUD, to avert a lawsuit- build more “affordable” housing in rich areas...amongst other things i asked “why aren’t they building the affordable housing in Andrew Spano’s neighborhood??”
Spano was the rat county executive who signed onto this agreement...
They aren’t building the housing in Yorktown because Spano bought up land in his town to protect his own home.
