Chicken Timoney: Proud To Blow Off The Meeting.

Another thing that we learned during last Thursday night’s Piermont mayoral debate, is that Nate Mitchell cares enough about Piermont to attend important meetings that could be determinative of Piermont’s future - like a meeting about the Erie Path.
 
Candidate Kevin Timoney, on the other hand, has no problem blowing them off – while offering no attendant explanation for his absence to the Piermont residents whose votes he claims he seeks.
 
How could candidate Kevin Timoney have possibly chosen to blow off the all-important meeting about the Erie Path in Piermont - a meeting occurring but a few short weeks prior to the October 25, 2025 commencement of early voting and the November 4, 2025 Election Day itself?
 
Well, you could ask Kevin Timoney this, if TIMBO were brave enough to take questions directly from Piermont residents.
 
But he’s not. And therefore you can’t. Because Kevin Timoney is too chicken for that:

If you can read through Kevin Timoney’s continued butchery of the English language in the debate Transcript excerpt below, then what follows, demonstrates the difference between the Mayor who shows up, versus just another Out Of Town Brown:
 
DORIA HILLSMAN
Mr. Timoney, do you support the Rockland County proposed plans for the trail? And if so, why? And if not, why not?
 
KEVIN TIMONEY [laughs nervously]
Very good question, and I know that there was a meeting on September 17th that I was not able to attend, and I’ve heard varying… information about it… Um[sic]… I do not believe in paving the Erie Path. I will tell you that 100 percent… Uh[sic]… I think it… would be detrimental to the environment…Um[sic]… It can cause landslides, erosion… Um[sic]… It’s just unsafe for the people who would live below there… Um[sic]… So, no, I’m not for the Erie Path… uh[sic]… the reconstruction. If it is for paving the streets that connect the path and putting up more signage to help, I think that’s okay… I think the people running that are being a bit… not trustful[sic], where they’re saying that they’ve reached out to people who live along the Erie Path… um[sic]… to see if they want… have them build gardens on their behalf or make it more private. I know that that has not happened, so… I’m not taking with what they’re saying[sic]… um[sic]… with much accuracy[sic]. But no, I don’t believe in the… construction of the… changing Erie Path[sic].
 
NATE MITCHELL
Well, unfortunately, I’m not sure that it’s up to us to make that determination. And I did attend that meeting on the 17th… The committee did offer to give privacy screens to any resident that wanted to have a privacy screen set up. But what I’m hearing from residents is, I don’t want a privacy screen, I want privacy. And those are two very different things…
 
Do Piermont residents want a Mayor who acts on hearsay and supposition alone – or alternatively, a Mayor who acts on the present-sense impression of direct evidence of his own witnessing, and a man who actually shows up?
 
That should be a rhetorical question, too.
