On the article Ballwin Seeking Grant For $1.4 Million in Henry Avenue Improvements

ReplyHenry Avenue's two 90 degree turns are something left over from the 1700s when cows made a path there. This needs to be removed. I wish they would STRAIGHTEN out Henry where it ends @ Manchester. Just go straight & "move" the businesses that are removed to the area of the short "street" area north of the lights at Manchester & Henry. Straight shot & better. OR EVEN BETTER, close the short part of Henry, auction the land off, move the lights just a few hundred feet west to Lotus & put the lights there. The land sale should generate about $ 500,000 to $ 1,000,000. AT LEAST $ 300,000. Land was valued at $ 250,000 PER ACRE 15 years ago & this is commercial land which is worth a lot more.

everyone wants their gov't and it's districts & agencies to run without deceit, fraud and theft.
That is what is going on in Rockwood, Parkway and other school districts in Missouri. Did you know there is NO LAW against paying to much for a product? That is why a $35 hammer costs the gov't $ 350.00 Does this sound like what is going on in Rockwood or Parkway?

Of course ALL TAX issues are related. Which school district do you think this $ 700,000,000 is going to come from? It is coming from St Louis County taxpayers. There is ONLY a limited amount of money available yet the state, counties, cities keep GIVING OUR MONEY to businesses. Who make makes up the difference? We St Louis County Taxpayers, that's who? You ever lobbied at Jefferson City? There are thousands of businesses with their greedy little hands out for tax subsidies, tax increment financing, tax credits THE LIST IS ENDLESS. You think graft and corruption in one school district is NOT COPIED by other school districts? The people who run school districts get paid by the taxpayers to attend seminars. At those seminars, the greedy, evil adminstators TEACH THEIR EVIL WAYS to other administrators and they bring those ideas back and put them into action.

Who is in charge of the bridge & road construction at Hanna & Vance & Fishpot creek and Hanna?
There has not been any work done to FINISH the road now that the bridge is in.
This is UNACCEPTABLE.
