I love it. Now they are MY thieves. I’m the first to admit all the problems with Wall Street and NAR. Im not defending them. I’d be happy to see it all cleaned up and would be perfectly fine. I have other skills and could do lots of things with my life. I’m not a one trick pony sucking off the taxpayer dollar.
Exactly what HOA and developer are you talking about. I didnt see any mentioned in the article. What I saw was a govt entity (the fire district) using developer fees to finance their largesse. You covered the problem with govt finances perfectly. The problem is declining reduces. You just left out why it is such a proble which is the inability to reel in expenses adequately in the face of declining revenues. Thats the problem not pensions which are one of many symptons of the problem. So are palacial fire stations out of character with the area. You said the RSF was necessary to keep up with the architural style in the area. I was back through today and took more pictures. We will all see what buildings look like around there and why it is truly a Crown Jewel.
