UAE ruler issues decree to start value-added taxes in 2018

MECHANICVILLE, N.Y. (NEWS10) – As water woes continue for some Mechanicville neighbors, the Department of Public Works is flushing fire hydrants to see if that will help clear up the brown color. Now going on weeks with brown water, Dawson Vanderveen is still making frequent walks to the store to pick up jugs of water. “I would still drink the bottled water until they actually find out what’s going on.” He showed NEWS10 ABC how discolored the water still is in his apartment, even after the Department of Public Works sent out a letter declaring the water safe. Vanderveen isn’t buying it. “It’s definitely not normal and not healthy like I wish they could find out what’s going on soon.” On Tuesday, there was a new effort from the DPW to solve the problem. They’re flushing area fire hydrants to help purge sediment in the system. Scheduled flushings typically happen in the fall, but the DPW says the discoloration has prompted them to do it early hoping that will clear up the water. Of...

20 Things to Do Before You Graduate From FSU

Image
I'm going into my senior year at Florida State University , which is terrifying and sad. The past few years have been awesome, each one better than the next, and I'm ready to make my final year the best one ever. I've done a lot of fun stuff and eaten a lot of good food, but I still have more to do. I decided to make a food/drink inspired FSU bucket list to check off before we all throw our caps in the air and peace out of Tally. (I'm not crying.) If you're an FSU student, get working on this list to make the most out of your time as a Seminole. 1. Have a picnic at Cascades Park. If you haven't been to Cascades park you should change that ASAP. It has a beautiful scenery with a man-made waterfall, an amphitheater, palm trees and more. If you're looking to get off campus (even though ours is beautiful) and away from college kids, Cascades is the place to go. My friends and I love going during the day on weekends and bringing along Taco Bell. They even have a...

Cary reaches deal with apartment complex that destroyed trees

The Cary Town Council on Thursday reached a deal with a local apartment complex to replace buffer vegetation that workers cut down earlier this year, prompting a $70,184 fine from the town. Cary fines violators of its buffer rules $2 to $4 per square foot based on the amount of damage documented. In April, the town fined Amberwood Apartments for damaging more than 17,546 square feet of vegetation at the corner of Piney Plains Road and Southeast Cary Parkway . The incident outraged some residents, including a Cary councilman who said he wanted the management group to “feel the wrath” of the town. Amberwood representatives initially disputed the town’s violation report, saying it contained inaccuracies and that Cary was trying to make an example of the complex. The deal approved Thursday requires Amberwood to deposit $40,000 into an escrow account, where it will stay until Cary says that new trees and shrubs have been planted in accordance with its revegetation plan. Cary wil...
