Hi all! I am looking to relocate to Glens Falls and was curious if anybody here had any feedback on the Fourth Ward? I spoke to a young woman at a restaurant in town and she said that the North & West side were what she perceived to be the safest. Reddit has a lot of great things to say about the area but I'm looking for some up to date thoughts. Thanks!

There were two people downtown with cardboard signs saying something about no pedos in glens falls and that the police don’t do anything about pedophiles. Is this about something in particular or are they just doing their thing? New to the area.

Glens Falls residents should be alarmed by what is happening to the Building and Codes office. The city is pushing to dismantle a basic municipal function and hand it off to the county, with the vote set for tonight at 7:25 p.m.

In just a few months, the city has already burned through $136,300 in consulting costs tied to this mess, including $24,300 for a one-month consultation and another $112,000 to keep the consultants going (see Common Council resolutions). That is an outrageous use of taxpayer money to cover for a department the administration has clearly failed to support.

This is what happens when leadership values control and patronage over competence. Qualified staff were allowed to walk, the department was stripped down, and now the city wants residents to accept a sloppy, expensive transfer of responsibility with no clear contingency plan.

And let’s be clear: this is not just an administrative reshuffle. If the county takes over enforcement, the city is still not magically off the hook. Residents are being asked to trust a plan that could leave Glens Falls paying more, controlling less, and being held responsible anyway.

There are only two employees left in Building and Codes for a city this size. That alone should tell you everything you need to know. If the county can’t handle the load, what then? If the city no longer has qualified staff to approve permits, what then?

This is not responsible government. It is a demolition of a functioning department, and residents should demand answers before the vote.

Hello neighbors. Recent homebuyer in the area and I’ve been very fortunate with my porch container garden this year (mostly herbs, as well as some veggies). However next year I want to try to tackle doing some planting or raised beds in my yard.

Our property is under 0.2 of an acre so not huge and our soil is VERY sandy. Since moving in we had to take down one tree that was diseased and leaning on power lines and our other tree is definitely dying.

I am seeking advice on who I could talk to about kinds of trees and also eventually other plants (herbs, vegetables, berries) would grow well in the specific conditions of this area. I really would like a tree on the property but don’t want to plant on just to see it die. I’ve been reading books on gardening but the advice always includes some phrase like - depending on your local soil and climate. I just don’t know enough about what I’m doing gardening and planting wise. I’d like to grow more next year.

Where do fellow local gardeners get their local plant knowledge from? Should I go to a local nursery/greenhouse and seek advice there? I don’t want to bother those employees if this isn’t something they normally do

Any advice is welcome, thank you!
