Congresswoman Claudia Tenney Questions Downtown Utica Hospital

---

April 18, 2018 - Tenney slams eminent domain for hospital In today's Utica Observer-Dispatch...

“Politicians in the state and some on the local level have a long record of abusing taxpayer money by using that money to prop up one private business over another,” Tenney, R-New Hartford, said in a written statement. “Declaring eminent domain — which allows government to forcibly take privately held property from one owner and hand that property over to another private entity — in the proposed downtown Utica hospital footprint is an equally egregious taking of constitutionally protected rights. The ability of our citizens to own and control private property is a cornerstone principle of our constitutional republic and this very principle preserves out freedom and sets our country apart from nearly all others.”

We simply wish to place any new hospital at the approved St. Luke's site, and prevent downtown businesses, streets & alleys from being erased.

Downtown Utica is better without an out-of-scale hospital that bulldozes our historic urban core. #NoHospitalDowntown is "yes hospital", we simply want the new hospital at St. Luke's where they own 64-acres, and not in the Columbia Lafayette Neighborhood. Here's Why We Oppose The Downtown Utica Hospital Concept and Many Agree!
