County government grows in size with building acquisitions

Editor:

Orleans County sold off the Infirmary (sad day) with promises of a smaller County government. Later built the $10 million administrative building.

Now the County is buying a bank building for $250,000 (not awful). Then $1.5 million for abandoned GCC campus and vacant land. Why?

What political party does the seller belong to? Taking buildings off the tax rolls hurts a struggling Village.

All County legislators made sure they were running unopposed before announcing this. Is anyone embarrassed?
