<DIV>There have been so many topics addressed at such frequent intervals in the
last couple of days that even an old civic war horse like me is almost
intimidated. Almost, but not quite. Let's roll it all into to one
package, okay?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Property taxes would go down for all of us if the BOE were working as hard
as Saundra Lund and I are on the issue. To that end, it is the sincere
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
<U>"heaven's sake"</U> pay their tax bills. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>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. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>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. </DIV>

<DIV>PS: I've raised pigs, and they aren't much fun. Neither are chickens,
goats, turkeys, or rabbits. Nonetheless, a little honest animal manure is
a lot more acceptable to me than the horse shit (complete with adolescent
curriculum vitae) that has been passing itself off as public-spirited
concern and community involvement these past few days on Vision 2020.</DIV>
