[Vision2020] Non-Profits, Bond Levies, Farming,

[Donovan Arnold]

Keely,

That is the problem. You have it backwards. There should be $20 million for 
the elementary renovations and only $10 million for renovations to the High 
School. You also ignore the fact that the Junior High's electrical system is 
failing.

Take Care,

Donovan J Arnold

>>There have been so many topics addressed at such frequent intervals in the

>>Property taxes would go down for all of us if the BOE were working as hard

>>hope
>>of Team Lund/Huskey that a few more properties will be returning to the 
>>tax
>>roles by the end of the summer.  Of course, we can be sure that those
>>law-abiding elders of Christ Church will drag out continuing litigation as 
>>long  as
>>possible before they bite the bullet, belly up to the bar, and for  
>>"heaven's
>>sake"  pay their tax bills.
>>
>>If property taxes decreased, maybe we wouldn't have to suffer such birth
>>pangs in laboring to bring forth a badly-needed new high school and  
>>elementary
>>school renovations.  I am grateful for the hundreds of  hours of work by
>>members of the facilities group and others who have given their  time and 
>>energy to
>>this project.  I appreciate the kindness and generosity  of the Trail 
>>family
>>-- and I'd like to add that with my nose  for conspiracy, if there was 
>>one, I
>>would have smelled it a long time  ago.

>>Since I don't play well with groups, I contributed absolutely nothing to  
>>the
>>facilities process.  However, I can and did dial a phone to find out  how
>>things were going through out the process.  Needless to say, I will be
>>supporting the levy and I strongly encourage others to do so.
