Subject: [Liveaboard] florida sample ballot..
I recieved my absentee ballot monday.. returned it yesterday...
just thought I would share some of what you will see on the Amendment section
and ..............
There are 6 amendments... seems #5 and 7 did not make it but 1-4, 6 and 8
did...
NO opinion about some from me... others I have a strong opinion...
I am working from memory here..
not necessarily in order they appear..
1. something about prohibiting someone who is _ineligble_ for US Citizenshp
from owning, disposing or inheriting real property..
2. same sex marriage yes or no.. and all that good rainbow stuff..
3.so you add stuff for wind protection from hurricanes or some sort of
alternative energy, say solar panels to your house.. prevents the local
powers that be from raising your property tax based on those additions..
4.makes it so that if you own land that has an easement, say, set aside for
conservation.. the county cannot make you pay taxes on that portion
that is mandated as set aside for conservation.
5 ASSESSMENT OF WORKING WATERFRONT PROPERTY BASED UPON CURRENT USE
This is a good thing for marinas..instead of taxing them as the same as
that condo next door they will assess them as a marina.. or at least I hope
that is the way it reads... maybe we can save some of our working waterfront.
6. local option for funding community colleges.. this is good.. now we, at
the local level, can fund our local colleges and not have them have to go hat
in hand to tallahassee for funding..
of coures there are, and i am NOT joking.. 13 pairs of peeps who want to move
into a white house... includes the ones we all know and the ones we have never,
ever heard of. I swear... I nearly peed my pants I was laughing so hard..
If you are voting absentee via st brendan's in clay county...
1. drop the commisioners salary to $37k (from what they don't say)
2. drop commisioners from 7 to 5
3. require 60% of clay county voters to agree to change the county charter...
straw poll...
should we open the bars in unicorporated clay county at noon instead of 2pm
on sunday..
