Some
are wondering “What now?” - now that Piermont residents have dismantled Village
Hall and Garmento Mayor Bruce Tucker (pictured above, in his usual pose) in the 447-477 Piermont Avenue and CBM zone litigation.
First,
everyone must remain vigilant, in that Village government and the developer
might seek to appeal Friday’s court decision, or try to end-run around the
likely-ensuing County rejection of the 447 development and CBM zone.
Second,
I am distributing the Piermont litigation news story to all available outlets,
not just on social media, but in New York City, the Hudson Valley, and New York
State generally. Residents of other communities need to know that they too can
beat sketchy overdevelopers and the crooked small-time governments that enable
them like Piermont’s. If you have news contacts too, then by all means please
use them now.
Third,
I am bringing a copy of Justice Greenfeld’s written decision and order to every
entity that publishes legal opinions, including the official reporters, NY Law
Journal, LEXIS, Westlaw, Casetext, Findlaw, the state and national bar
associations, and the law reviews at all New York law schools. All future
counsel should be versed in how to defeat overdevelopment rooted in
GML-referral malfeasance perpetrated by a crooked small-time government like
Piermont’s.
Fourth,
every lawful step must and will be taken to assure that Bruce Edward Tucker is
dislodged, disgorged, and excised from the mayoral office that he currently and temporarily occupies,
and furthermore, to ensure that Tucker never holds any public office in New
York State or anywhere else again. The fact that he just wasted at least six
figures worth of your resources as innocent taxpayers to litigate a loser of a
case that he cannibalistically fought against his own constituents and
neighbors, is absolutely reprehensible.
There
are those soft, touchy-feely neighbors in your Piermont midst who now speak of
a desire to “work with” Tucker and Village government. But those neighbors are
conflicted obsequious flunkies, typically beholden to Tucker and his Village Hall cronies for
antecedent reasons. Rather, what the events of the last six months in Piermont
should have convinced everyone, is that you almost got permanently hustled by a
concerted group of malevolent individuals. They almost destroyed your Village.
This is not a cute little mid-morning brunch. You’re up against the functional
equivalent of organized crime - spearheaded by a bumbling but horribly
untrustworthy sheet and towel salesman out of Elizabeth, New Jersey who has
pretended to be your mayor for the last 6.5 years. He continues to threaten to
destroy your Village. You can sit and watch.
Or
you can get up and do something to stop him.
