PC COMM CENTER: It's BACK!

AV8OR wrote: They have woken up!

Makes one wonder if there is a PC position dedicated to watching posts on this forum impacting PC?

More baseless accusations that everyone who doesn't agree with you works for PCSO.

If I'm reading what AV8OR wrote correctly, they said "PC" not PCSO..

Anger toward the Sheriff regarding this would appear to be misdirected.

Perhaps you should (and here's a new concept) get the facts straight before you rush to the keyboard.

I have my FACTS straight, you can try and twist this out of the Sheriff's hands all you want...ohh that's right you're part of the team now aren't you? LOL THE COMM CENTER is the WANT WANT WANT of the Sheriff's Department and the BOCC of which the county DOES NOT HAVE the funds to support this very HIGH PRICED offering at 2.3 million dollars. The taxpayers should be VOTING on this initiative, not having the BOCC and the Sheriff's department putting this County further in DEBT...a DEBT we the taxpayer's do not need to have the burden of. There are other options which the BOCC and the Sheriff's Office continue to ignore. They are all about spend, spend, spend....

I agree 100% Coxprss. People don't get the fact that the Grant money that was supposed to go to this project IS NO MORE. It will be up to the TAX PAYERS to pay this off!!

i have posted this on other websites that i participate in. thank you.

a couple of questions. i went to their website to look and see if it is updated and it only shows dec 2. do you have to sign up to get their most recent agenda?

and since i can't be there physically, does it do any good to write them in your opinion?

would the commissioners be willing to listen to any of this concern?

The New York Times
Mounting Debts by States Stoke Fears of Crisis
By MICHAEL COOPER and MARY WILLIAMS WALSH

Now states are bracing for more painful cuts, more layoffs, more tax increases, more battles with public employee unions, more requests to bail out cities. And in the long term, as cities and states try to keep up on their debts, the very nature of government could change as they have less money left over to pay for the services they have long provided.

Richard Ravitch, the lieutenant governor of New York, is among those warning that states are on an unsustainable path, and that their disclosures of pension and health care obligations are often misleading. And he worries how long it can last.

Tax Appeals Swamp U.S. Cities, Towns as Property Prices Plunge
Municipal budgets “tend to lag economic conditions” by 18 months to several years, according to a National League of Cities report in October that Pagano co-wrote.
“The full weight of the decline in housing values has yet to hit the budgets of many cities and property tax revenues will likely decline further in 2011 and 2012,” the report said.

Douglas Roberts, Michigan’s former treasurer, said in a telephone interview from East Lansing that the impact of property-tax appeals “could be significant” because cities are already struggling with rising pension and health-care costs and declining revenue.
Settlements are likely to increase across the state through 2013 as the backlog is worked through, compounding other revenue shortfalls, Daddow said.
“In some of these instances, probably most of them, local governmental units have not been setting money aside for this,” Daddow said. “That will be huge. That will be another big headache coming down the pike.”

If anyone needs a ride to the meeting tomorrow, it appears that someone has offered to give a ride.
