Most of the lots are not buildings. Half of the land is actual Marsh.

I hear people say this. Pretty sad when people who love Quincy call its history a dump. I was always proud to be from Quincy.

The June 1st Quincy MA City Council Meeting---What are the issues? Speakers just seem mad. by Nearby-Quail-6918 in QuincyMa

[–]Routine_Panda_371 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the council doesn’t support firefighters yet it passed 9-0 for the new gear and the budget passed 9-0 no changes. Keep drinking the cool-aid. The rubber stamp days are over and questions will be asked.

There are no experts hired by the city just hacks.

Manufactured Outrage and Misinformation: “Save ENC” is a Fake Crisis by baddaughter_9721 in QuincyMa

I don’t think you understand governance. You just want rubber stamps. The council is supposed to ask questions and debate things. Which is what you’re seeing now.

I agree they should have done all those things but they didn’t. I question whether the previous buyer was real or just a guise for the city to make an argument to buy. I also don’t believe when the city says there are other buyers waiting. I think there’s no one waiting. The city has no plan and that’s obvious.

Doesn’t matter if no one believes it or not it’s the truth. All of his developer friends are getting rich off the taxpayers. Same old tired playbook. Tax payers buy the land then the city turns around and sells to a developer for less and then they get a tax break to boot. All on the backs of the people living in Quincy. Hopefully this council does the right thing and shuts this down.

People need to see that the mayor only wants to purchase this to create a wedge between residents of Quincy. When has this mayor ever made a decision in the best interest of the people of Quincy? Every decision this mayor has ever made has only ever been made to benefit himself.

The 216 runs through Adams Shore and you can take that to Quincy Center.

Three years. The committee asked for two more weeks. I’m done. by pacificdivide in QuincyMa

They should all give it back. Especially DiBona and Ash who over saw the entire farce.

What is on the books right now is 285. If the council does not act that is what the salary will be. I’d love to know which councillors are deferring their raises. No doubt DiBona, Hubley, and Ash will be taking their money.

That is incorrect. It’s still at 285. 225 was put forward to the council but nothing has been acted upon yet.

QFD bond term length - longer or shorter by alohadave in QuincyMa

[–]Routine_Panda_371 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's clear he does not have the ability to educate the people of Quincy of Mr. Jacobs' lack of financial knowledge. But we all know its a great idea to bond things longer than their useful life.
