The Coeymans Recycling Company asked the Albany County Industrial Development Agency (IDA) for financial support. The company wants to build a 75,000 square foot facility on 88+ acres along the Coeymans Creek in the Industrial Park (see map below). The facility will be used for “an industrial logistics and material handling facility” plus other activities.
The financial assistance they want could include “potential exemptions from certain sales and use taxes, real property taxes, real estate transfer taxes, and mortgage recording taxes.”
QUESTIONS TO BRING
MONEY? Why does this prosperous-looking company need our financial support? Is it going broke? Do they really need OUR public money???
WHAT MATERIALS, WHAT ACTIVITY? What exactly will be handled here? Will it include hazardous materials or operations?
TRAFFIC? What might be the impact of a very large logistics facility on local roads and river traffic?
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW? How will this affect the people who live in Coeymans, Ravena, Selkirk, and New Baltimore? What might be the impact on the Coeymans Creek & Hudson River? There has been NO environmental review.
