You've convinced me, (did you say CHEESE???) :)<br /><br />I have to say, you have patience and motivation to be on such a board(s). Our town is all over the place. They will spend so much money fixing the tennis court (that nobody ever, EVER, uses) and build a wash station for boats (for the weekenders), but the pot holes haven't been touched in 3 years now. We pretty much have given up!Rain https://www.blogger.com/profile/14377719049819222133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4030352031960855220.post-12872210257284783482017-06-17T20:46:21.361-04:002017-06-17T20:46:21.361-04:00Yum!!

Up the hollow from me is a little piece of Deliverance - a new building inspector went up to issue fines for collapsing homes and they threatened him with guns. When he kept it up, a group of them went to his house one night and torched his shed. There are places up there that I swore were abandoned. At least, they ought to be.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12573143203599624833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4030352031960855220.post-79163601320425729182017-06-16T16:28:28.002-04:002017-06-16T16:28:28.002-04:00Do you ever have to deal with people who don't...Do you ever have to deal with people who don't realize or don't care that they need a variance for something and just start building their wildly inappropriate whatever?

No one goes faster than 45 mph, there are no other signs that would block it, and it is the only store of its kind for miles. We didn't think it was a good idea to set a precedent by starting the trend of giant signs down our little main drag.

I see it all the time on the school board that I serve on and see it at city council meetings. People don't realize the difficulty in creating a system that is as fair to as many people as possible while preventing unsavory things from occurring. Just today, there is a big uproar in our community because someone moved from one house to another not realizing from one zoned area to another. They wanted to continue their daycare business but when neighbors complained it was shut down. The community thinks it is horrible on the part of the city council to do such a dastardly deed. I on the other hand, realize how hard it is to distinguish between a daycare, a small engine repair show or even a bar and if one is granted a variance, how can one be fair if denying the other's a variance. I sympathize with the lady but as someone who wouldn't want a successful small engine repair shop next door to me, I think the city council did the right thing. But they won't get any respect for their decision by the majority.Edhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13214319366049620074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4030352031960855220.post-34973176319383706762017-06-16T12:19:01.150-04:002017-06-16T12:19:01.150-04:00I also live in a place with the same change but no...I also live in a place with the same change but no change issues. Unfortunately our council can be a little flaky at times. Could it be because the mayor is the most successful businessman in town or one of the Councillors in her former life tried to make a case for an outrageous variance? Sounds like your lovely place is in good hands. I bet the blogger is the sharpest of the bunch. Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12830177691014290662noreply@blogger.com
