"Dangerously close to the sanctionable dogged pursuit of litigation for purposes which are other than the legitimate challenge to governmental action." Yikes.
Abinanti's real reason for opposing incorporation.
In his remarks about Edgemont’s potential incorporation, Mr. Abinanti—a Greenburgh Town Councilman from 1980 to 84 and 1990 to 91—revealed some ugly Greenburgh history.
The politicians must doubt their chances in court and the election, so now they are changing the election law itself.
Their plan to kill our voting rights: 1) investigate the petitioners, 2) unlawfully reject the petition, and 3) change the election law itself
The Hartsdale Parking District will work with the Village of Edgemont on commuter permits
The HPPD has just demonstrated how municipalities can plan to work together for the benefit of everyone, and we hope that the Town will follow their lead.
The Town will make a decision tonight on Shelbourne Assisted Living's special permit; the Appellate Division ruled today on our request to expedite the Supervisor's appeal on the referendum petition.
In order to achieve its desired result, the Town will refuse to acknowledge the obvious: that the route to Shelbourne on Underhill Road is, in fact, circuitous. Also, the Appellate Division ruled on timeline today.
Supervisor appeals to Albany for absentee ballots while appealing court order to hold an election.
Last week, Greenburgh Town Supervisor Paul Feiner appealed to Albany for permission to use absentee ballots in Edgemont's incorporation referendum while he simultaneously appealed the court order to hold the election. Something isn't right.
Duane Morris LLP: Edgemont's legal rights to priority parking access are secure post-incorporation

More Stall Ball: Feiner To Appeal Court’s Ruling
Paul Feiner will appeal a court’s ruling in favor of Edgemont’s petition to vote on incorporation. As confirmed by Tom Abinanti, it’s all part of Feiner's larger effort to delay the vote, no matter whom he hurts in the process.
Mr. Feiner's Allegations Say More About Him Than They Do About Us.
The Town Supervisor continues his campaign against Edgemont with unsubstantiated statements about incorporation. The EIC has both internal research and Town data to demonstrate that Mr. Feiner's statements are baseless.
Edgemont incorporation petition is validated by court
Yesterday, Justice Susan Cacace “reversed, vacated, and annulled” Feiner’s rejection of Edgemont’s incorporation petition.
Feiner now claims Edgemont doesn’t care about poor people; Village mayors vow to oppose social service funding.
Town Supervisor Paul Feiner declared that “those pushing for [Edgemont’s] incorporation don’t want to continue supporting programs that help the poor.”
We think that the kind of race-baiting Mr. Feiner is using against Edgemont is deplorable, and frankly, the complete opposite of what’s actually happening. To wit, Edgemont has been advocating for the department, which includes the Theodore D. Young Community Center, while the village mayors are categorically rejecting paying for this social service, no matter how little it would cost, and threatened to litigate.
Greenburgh Town Conflict Resolution Procedure: Set Up Collusive Lawsuits.
The proposed Shelbourne assisted living development project at the Sprain Brook Nursery site represents a symptom of larger Town governance problems.
Hey Edgemont, our Town property taxes are rising 4.8%, on average, every year.
Greenburgh came in under the tax cap and still has an AAA rating. Should we care?

Edgemont Incorporation in the NYTimes and edgemont2017.org updates
NYTimes reports on Edgemont’s Incorporation movement, the issue with Greenburgh’s electoral calculus, zoning and planning issues, the economics and opportunity to share or buy back services, and of course the outrageous attempts by Feiner and Abinanti to thwart our constitutional rights to vote on the issue.
Bad news for Greenburgh taxpayers (but a silver lining for Edgemont's feasibility)
Greenburgh's town taxes are going up but a Village of Edgemont will have $1MM of additional budget should we incorporate.
Another favorable ruling for the EIC
Yesterday, the Court agreed with the EIC that we are a necessary party to the lawsuit between incorporation opponent Don Siegel, on one side, and Town Supervisor Paul Feiner, on the other.
