Yeah, I was wrong, I fixed it.

The late fees are cheap, five dollars a month, I believe.

Also, the assessor's, and especially the collector's offices are very easy to deal with if you ever need to talk to them on the phone or in person.

Edit: It's 10% the first month and 2% each month thereafter. So it could actually be a lot of you owe a lot, my bad.

Omg yes!

Oh, no, I was just doing a take on Needful Things because I don't know what should go in there. You too!

Nothing? Did you misread my comment, or did I accidentally imply it was bad?

It was an old building, but not really of any historical significance that I could tell. I have no problem with them demolishing it.

A mysterious little shop that sells cursed magical items that will reveal the buyers' hidden misdeeds and provide their comeuppance in ironic and poignant ways.

Here's an article from 2017 that mentions the property, but I don't know what they're going to do with it.

Not to be a downer, but I'm wondering how they are going to deal with the homeless encampments that will inevitably spring up all along this trail.

This sub has been tattoo shop recommendation post-free for 4 day(s).

Another shopping center like the one west of Walmart. None of the spaces have been leased yet.

A pair of house shoes with rubber soles that are suitable to wear out. She's probably accustomed to being able to slip on some sandals for a quick errand, and might appreciate being able to do the same with a warmer version when it's cold out.

So it goes.

Then how are they supposed cripple the Japanese war machine and force a surrender to avoid a land invasion?

If I go to work tomorrow and my boss expects me to close five tickets for critical issues, and instead I spend the day cleaning out the supply closet, he's not going to feel like I'm being very effective or that I am prioritizing my tasks appropriately. I may be a good person and have good intentions, but at the end of the day I didn't do what he needed me to do.

When the city is asking for buy-in on projects like this but aren't delivering in other areas, yes, it's a trust issue, but it's also an issue of prioritization. Progress in economic development is important, but I don't see any progress whatsoever being made in the other areas I mentioned, or even any effort to address them.

Obviously no one is calling for a vote on every rezoning issue, that's too ridiculous to even consider. However, when City Council votes unanimously to approve a rezoning and the vote comes out 70-30 percent against, that constitutes a major disconnect.

Good intentions and bold visions aside, people might be more receptive if we saw some substantive steps toward addressing issues that are more pressing than attracting out of state investors--poverty, homelessness, crime, and hunger, to name a few.

That lack of alignment is a larger issue. Between Grant Avenue Parkway, University Heights and Galloway, it's becoming clear that there's a small group of city leaders, developers, and influential citizens that have a particular vision for the future of Springfield, and the majority of the voting public, we can see from the numbers last night, are not on board with it.

Personally I found Cliff Smart's comment that allowing citizens to vote on rezoning sets "a very, very dangerous precedent" a bit ominous. What I took from that was, "sit down and shut up, because we know what's best for you."

I did not see any persuasive arguments that the development would be a net benefit for the community or the city as a whole. The yes campaign were relying on a false dichotomy of "development at any cost" or "no development at all," and were using scare tactics, i.e. "voting no will scare off future developers." That indicated to me that there was no real benefit to rezoning aside from that gained by the developers.

There was no middle ground on the ballot question, it was a yes or no vote. Given those facts, I had to vote no.

Interesting point. What is the argument that shows that building luxury apartments and storage units in that particular area creates a stronger community?

Is it because waking up a senior DBA at 3am or jumping out a window is a difficult decision?
