Also, I don't feel the need to air my political views here; I'm not going to convince anybody to see things my way, so why bother?<BR/><BR/>As far as Mayor Malloy, I don't agree with everything he and his administration do, but it's hard to deny that he's done good things for this city. Yes, taxes are high, but I don't think they're out of whack; this is an expensive area and the costs of the services provided to the public only increase. Compare Stamford to the other cities in Connecticut: Bridgeport, Waterbury, Hartford, etc. How many of them have a safe downtown, a pretty fun nightlife and jobs, jobs, jobs?<BR/><BR/>As far as affordability, yes it is getting out of control. I have a feeling that prices have been "artificially" boosted by the fact that people have been living beyond their means using credit cards and over-their-head loans. Perhaps once this latest crisis passes (which will take a few years), rental and home purchase prices will accurately reflect what people here can afford.<BR/><BR/>Our city and its leaders are not perfect and have their problems, but I think this is a pretty nice place to live. If you have a real gripe (not a personal attack) with the mayor or anything he or his administration have done, then I encourage you to contact him directly. You can email him on the city website: http://www.cityofstamford.org/content/25/50/default.aspxStreets of Stamfordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08021954676706868948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5336607172613832487.post-82915042296706607162008-11-08T20:30:00.000-05:002008-11-08T20:30:00.000-05:00I would suggest a post on Stamford politics and th...I would suggest a post on Stamford politics and the incredibly high property taxes, both which can be squarely traced to that behemoth white elephant on Washington and Main and directly to that plush and comfy office by the most ineffectual mayor in the history of Stamford, Dannel Malloy. <BR/><BR/>More and more people can't afford to live here, housing prices are slumping, city hall employees are out busy having a continual smoking break in the garage (think we don;t notice? oh and no wonder the public can't buy a meal in the cafeteria, because they are busy chit-chatting instead of doing work.) <BR/><BR/>What has Dannel Malloy done? Nothing? He has done nothing, but played politics and hope for a state senate seat. Has the budget been aligned with the new reality facing us all? No. Has the workforce been trimmed? No, they are hiring. Have city funding been brought under control? Of course not! Using hard earned tax dollar, Dannel Malloy is doling these out to win election to another office. Way to go Dannel!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5336607172613832487.post-40350084339930659702008-11-04T04:56:00.000-05:002008-11-04T04:56:00.000-05:00The above was me (I forgot to type in the name bef...The above was me (I forgot to type in the name before posting).<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I e-mailed that question to Walgreen's, and they replied that the store would be opening in February, but they didn't make any mention of the hours.
