SCWA Maintains AAA Bond Rating

Despite persistent economic pressures and rising infrastructure costs across the region, Suffolk County Water Authority’s AAA bond rating remains unchanged, according to Fitch Ratings. The highest possible rating reflects SCWA’s strong financial management, operational efficiency and commitment to infrastructure investment without increasing long-term debt. The designation ensures SCWA would receive the most favorable interest rates if entering the bond market to fund critical infrastructure projects. “Maintaining this AAA rating demonstrates our commitment to fiscal responsibility and long-term planning,” said SCWA Chairman Charlie Lefkowitz. “Fitch’s decision reinforces that we are managing our resources wisely, which helps us keep costs down for ... by Staff Writer

It Stinks

Well. I wasn’t surprised at the reaction from local Democrats to the long-overdue reform of our federal government. It’s hard to fathom how defensive they are over what has always been known was a bloated, over-funded bureaucracy. I’ll take Dean Stiffle’s figure [“No Good Reason,” Letters, February 20] of 2.3 million employees whose productivity has not been seriously addressed since Ronald Reagan’s famous remark, “The nine most terrifying words in the English language are ‘I’m from the government and I’m here to help.” The American people are now responsible for over $36 trillion of debt.

New York State continues to grieve the horrific murder of Sam Nordquist. As the coverage of the incident continues, more devastating information is coming to light. It has been revealed that Sam went to local social services to inform them of the danger he was facing, increasingly becoming less able to inform others of the abuse he was facing. As reported by NBC News, Sam’s mother and loved ones contacted the police twice to do wellness checks on Sam. Canandaigua Police Department’s chief of police, Mathew Nielsen, said that Sam’s family must be “confused” as to which law enforcement agency ... by Staff Writer
