With the advancement of tracking technology to now include transitioning to AMR Water Meters from the foolproof never breaks down analog water meters for the Town of Glenville now taking place the question as to how the town intends to recover $1.7 million needs to be addressed and with very specifically detailed answers by the Town. It’s already known that $10 will be slapped onto the next billing. However, that total amount based on the 5,500 homes quoted to be transitioned leaves a balance of around $1.6 million as ‘The entire cost will be borne by water district customers’. This will be accomplished by a new billing system. Once the new computer software is in place the billing criteria will change. What is typically done with this type of system where the pulsed signals are captured either by device, radio signal relay, etc. will occur minimally on a monthly basis, if not daily, once all relative infrastructures is installed. The benefits that will be told to the customers such as any leaks can be identified and individual home monitoring use can be reviewed on line. That is conditioning the customer to accept being monitored. In other words all customers will be spied on depending on how on the sophistication of the computer software and radio signaling, to when, at what time and how much they consume water. The propaganda spewing benefits such as discovering a leak where even without this monitoring device would be discovered easily in any home will help the unsuspecting to embrace the new tracking device. And yes, water is a precious resource. However, long term where with the agendas along with different town government incumbents may work against even the most conservative users. Reviewing the revised Comprehensive Plan dated October 23, 2017 now posted on the Town of Glenville’s URL under General Information where anyone can download the plan. On page 100: F) Priority Initiatives 1) Government • Conduct an analysis of the Town’s water use fee structure to evaluate opportunities to fund capital improvements. There you have it. Glenville residents have now been advised what will occur for ‘use fee structure’ by the town. Analysis means ‘more to come’ to be sure! It’s a matter of figuring out where to find this ever so special nugget of information. There are additional discussions in the Town Plan to hopefully expand water service (opportunities?) to adjacent communities. However, monies will potentially be needed for those types of ‘capital improvements’. Be it for current investments or expansion plans the residents (customers) are expected to be the venture capitalists without any return on investment yet with only an eventual lofty water bill. One can wonder why it is felt that expansion of water service to adjacent communities is needed except for the desire and/or need to generate income to the Town’s coffers. That concept does not need to be considered as negative as it could be viewed as a segment of total revenues in keeping the town solvent as well as continue with the ability to provide very good services. Yet the town’s residents may have to cough up monies that will strap many. Even if the town is able to renegotiate for the 2020’s share of tax revenue generated from the county such as the casino revenues and successfully increase that share to the town the hopeful tax offset could be passed on. Yet, there likely will not be much gain, if any, in anyone’s pocket due to this capital expenditure. It is hard to know at this level right now. Does the current Town Board and Planners have nefarious intent as what is described by installing this type of tracking technology water meter system? It is very likely not the case and all are well intended. And that is evident to the many very good improvements occurring in the town over the past several years. However, insufficient research is obviously limited or done only in one direction on the water meters along with some other plans on their part. Why? Why then has the Town of Glenville have taken what is really an unnecessary route to add what is nothing other than a very expensive and intrusive piece to the Smart Grid agenda is really unknown unless one has inside information or is part of the Board or Planning Committees. It’s possible the local (town) government in this area has waived, or in a way required to give up or even that they drank the Kool-Aid by handing away that level of control to the state level along with associated nongovernment associations and public private partnerships steering the Agenda 21/Agenda 2030 initiatives. Two to mention, although reviewing the web sites on the agendas and plans reveal some specific and more with plenty of platitudes and propaganda yet are still worth giving a review: Smart Grid Roadmap New York September 2010 and New York State Regional Economic Councils. Then research those very informative sites such as Technocracy News to begin to understand what is really going on across New York State and across the country affecting privacy and property rights to name two. It’s interesting to note how the verbiage on both the short and long term goals for the Town of Glenville’s Updated Plan submitted October 23, 2017 appears uncannily similar to the Smart Grid Roadmap for NYS September 2010.

The Town of Glenville residents received a notice to make an appointment with East National Water, LLC to install AMR Water meters at “free of charge”. Really? Is this really the truth? In the notice sent to the Town of Glenville residents and business on October 2, 2017: “Recently, the town has contracted with East National Water, LLC of Palmer, MA, to replace your in-home meter, This will occur free of charge.” So who is really paying East National Water for this installation? According to the article by the Daily Gazette dated June 26, 2017 YOU are! “The entire cost will be borne by water district customers. Koetzle said the project will add about $10 per year to each water bill, some of which will be offset through lower postage costs and the more-efficient use of staff once the billing system changes.” How is that free of charge? Ten dollars may not seem like much. However, has any discussion occurred to the residents of Glenville how a ‘new billing system’ will undoubtedly exponentially raise the water bills over time? How long will this extorted ten dollars per year go on for? First, consider the high cost of installing these meters and software. Going back to the Daily Gazette article where it states the following: “The Town Board recently awarded two contracts totaling $1.78 million for the meters and their installation. Last week the Town Board voted to borrow $950,000, with the remainder of the project cost coming from a capital reserve account. The purchase includes both the meters and the computer software needed to read them.” That amount is more than what the Town of Glenville can really afford. It is already on record the entire cost will be borne by the water district customers. Thus, what might happen if they successfully install these meters in everyone’s homes and businesses? According to an article by Oracle, a heavyweight in data management with a competitive focus on Smart Grids, where back in 2009 discusses that once the computer program is in place the benefit to the utility, now potentially being applicable to the Town of Glenville states: “Customer information systems that easily and rapidly implement new rates.” After all, how long is the Town of Glenville willing to wait for full recovery on that big loan? Currently and at least through 2018 our fail safe analog meter reads are submitted once per year to the town. Low water users pay $40 per year for water that is sourced from an aquifer then treated with neurotoxins and carcinogens such chlorine and fluoride (another serious topic). The annual water bill was the only reasonable cost for the residents of Glenville while our pockets are otherwise being sucked dry with property and school taxes. What will likely happen then once this computer software is in place and most homes are now suckered into replacing their analogs with a meter that transmits information via radio frequencies? Let’s go back to that Oracle article discussing how thee meters work: “In AMR, meters communicate their monthly or daily consumption totals to a central collector using one of a number of different communications techniques, such as radio signals, power-line communications, or satellite reads. In other words, they are designed to replace house-to-house meter readers with centralized collection.” Monthly or daily consumption totals? To a centralized collection? The town states they will drive by to capture the reads once per year. How long will that be? Time will tell. And all for $1.7 million. Here is my prediction on what will happen likely close to around 2019 to 2020. Your annual bill will transition to a monthly bill. Given the current rate of minimal water use at $40 year that would equate to $3.33 per month. Sending monthly bills at this amount would not be cost effective. The Town of Glenville needs to find some way to recover the $1.7 million contract expenditure to install meters in a mere 5,500 homes and businesses. That cost is approximately $310 per home or business. The $10 per year extorted fee would otherwise take approximately 31 years in order to recover these expenditures. Thus, that leaves approximately $300 left per unit to repay this contract and loan. Predictably, the Town of Glenville residents will likely eventually be forced into a monthly bill at or around a minimum of $25 per month, $300 per year increasing the cost by about 750%. If the town does not go that route, which I doubt that they won’t, it will have to be inserted into the property tax bill. Either way, the Town of Glenville residents LOOSE. As with all taxes, once these expenditures are paid back by the residents, will these monthly or annual increased costs of only $10 go away? I doubt it. As Koetzle was quoted in the Daily Gazette: “The entire cost will be borne by water district customers.” That is what he said. THE ENTIRE COST. Let that sink in as $10 per customer extorted charge obviously will not cut it. If the Town of Glenville utilizes the AMR meter such as Invensys (there are many models out there) the meter shows an analog type that is wired fro radio frequencies to transmit flow totals as water is flowing such as gas meters. However, another invasive daily or monthly read that will eventually or immediately goes to a central location without the resident’s permission. All they need to know is the annual usage without this horrible expense. Will residents forget their 4th Amendment rights and enter into a new contract without sufficient information by allowing another Tracking Technology device along with a known, well vetted researched health hazards1 into their home on the exploding invasion of EMF’s, microwaves and radio frequencies? All of us along with our pets and all living things are now swimming in it. Unfortunately, the residents are not sufficiently educated or informed. NOT in my home. NEVER. Either The Town of Glenville does NOT have my consent to trespass on my property or will East National Water, LLC. I will happily mail in my water meter reading from my analog meter and pay the $40 on an annual basis, without the $10 extorted charge. My tax already subsidizes the town to do what seems to them a horrible dirty job for three measly months collecting the data and funds from the residents. Suck it up Town of Glenville. It’s what I have only agreed, contracted as a customer for you to do. If the Town of Glenville fully discloses the absolute costs and recovery agenda, meter reading timing and billing specifics on this water meter plan to include BOTH the short and long term analysis and agenda on what they are planning will I be able to revise what appears is going to occur. Next challenge: Getting that viciously dangerous to health and invasion to privacy Electric Smart Meter replaced by an analog. National Grid, you’ve been a problem with no thanks to then Governor Patterson and now Cuomo along with all the related NGO’s with the technocracy dictatorship they intend to fully implement.

That is, if there were real ideological distinctions between the two different parties. Evidently, they're on the same page and coin it as 'bipartisan'. I don't know about you but there are a growing number of us that are tired of that nonsensical rhetoric. Tonko’s voting history as measured according to the United States Constitution since his time as the House Representative sine 2009 is abysmal at best. His voting history is well documented here reflecting for his entire voting record since 2009 to July 2017 at only 23%. Pathetic. He continually breaks his oath to uphold the United States Constitution by his voting record alone. And Health Care Reform? I can only guess what Tonko’s end goal is and I am sure it will not be good especially as he voted for the unconstitutional and disastrous Obamacare debacle to begin with where that legislation strips away your rights to choose on whether or to or not to purchase health insurance programs and from who which was ultimately designed to lead to Single Payer that strips ALL rights away from you. Why wouldn't Koeztle prefer a full repeal rather than any reform? Any reform, after all, will only prove worse. And he calls him a good friend? I wonder if this great ‘friendship’ is actually at the expense of the constitutional rights of Glenville residents. Tonko is laughing in this picture. I wonder what he is really laughing about. Is it really at the pawn in the game? After all, Tonko already has proven that he is no friend to the Representative Constitutional Republic. Thus, considering as friends, is Koeztle really a friend or foe of the Republic? Is this why the Town of Glenville now choosing to ignore the 4th Amendment and plans to install tracking technology coined as SMART Water Meters? This plan is without the expressed permission/consent by each and every individual homeowner and business. Consider this. The announcement was made. It is now up to you to say no as they will never suggest you do. They are hoping for implicit consent. They tell you it’s mandatory. They want you afraid. You have every right to say NO! And what does the 4th Amendment state? The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized. ALL Smart Meters are tracking technologies. These technologies violate your 4th Amendment rights. Not only do the Town of Glenville residents need to address the electrical utilities smart meter issue that were forced on our homes without expressed consent, they now need to address this upcoming mess. Other articles have and will continue to address the serious health issues now confirmed to be cause by radio frequency, microwave and EMF technologies. Beware; the industry behind these technologies will attempt to ‘lie’ to you otherwise. Hint – Effective October 1, 2017 the ICB (International Classification of Disease) now classifies radio frequency as a specific billable health cause. Smart Meters utilize radio frequencies. These technologies HARM! And they also spy on you. . Say NO to Smart Water Meters
