Tom Richards may be the one person everyone in Rochester -- liberal, conservative, independent -- can agree on (except perhaps Mary Anna), which is to say NO ONE who knows him or has studied his record would want him as Mayor. Except perhaps some of the swells at the Genesee Valley Club or Nixon Peabody. But none of them live in the City, or have been fired from their jobs at RG&E.

Without a hint of irony, critics warn that moving forward with California’s high-speed rail project risks financial disaster for the state.

Rochester's Bicycle Plan, why bother?

There’s still time (until August 31st) to comment on the Rochester Bicycling Master Plan: “While the plan will provide conceptual design and inventory work with respect to on-street bike lanes, it will also consider shared lane markings (sharrows), bicycle boulevards, bicycle parking, commuter facilities (e.g. showers, lockers), bicycle sharing, and more. ”

Rochester’s Bike Master Plan—It’s Not Just for Cyclists

Holding a special election for Rochester mayor would end indecision

Since gubernatorial candidate Andrew Cuomo announced in May that Mayor Robert Duffy would be his running mate, City Hall has been in limbo.

That's not good, given that the city's persistent challenges need constant attention and charismatic leadership.

Special mayoral election would work best

Months ago, gubernatorial candidate Andrew Cuomo chose Mayor Duffy as his running mate. Come November, if the Cuomo/Duffy ticket is elected, the mayor will vacate his office, leaving it up to City Council to determine how his seat will be filled.
