Please resume this asap. He isnt doing the 2nd ward any good. And he gives Cohoes a bad reputation. Restore integrity and remove Don Russell 2nd ward of Cohoes, NY 12047.

I believe a council member should be held to a higher standard and be an example of what and how things should be done. Don Russell should resign his office because his example has shown us he has NO Integrity.

No one should be able to use an elected office to get insider information on real estate transactions, and then use that knowledge for personal financial gain in land deals. He must resign.

The 2nd Ward looks like hell, potholes everywhere, weeds, drug dealers, and dodgy characters hanging out all the time! We as taxpayers deserve better from our council and from city hall.

This is a travesty...noone, especially an elected official should be able to get away with nothing more than a slap on the wrist for an ethics violation, let alone 2. This man needs to be removed from office representing the people of Cohoes!

Stopping a woman from opening her business in cahoes based on lies he formed doesn’t seem like integrity to me

Integrity has to be held. In every way. To much power for little concern of people and well being of the community. Sad he feels he shouldn't step down.

Needs to leave office. Is there a higher power that can force him to leave office. Or put a referendum for city residents to do this.
