On Friday, we got rain…sprinkled for about 45 seconds but, it sounded good and smelled good…hit the concrete driveway and evaporated. Evidently, there is a few more praying for rain but, not enough.
I went to the EMS meeting on the 20th, along with about 18 or 15 others and was witness to an unorganized, sham of a meeting that had several folks wondering if it was even legal. I’m gonna leave this alone because the newspaper was there and will expound on it in depth. According to one of the posted notices on the window of the meeting room was the phrase “the people of MCESD #4 have spoken”. I don’t think that this is an accurate statement.
Also went to the Commissioners Court meeting on Monday and attempted to address my concerns with the increase in the Tax Rate using my own math calculations. Using numbers from Tax Central (told Melissa Lutz that I wouldn’t use her name) I came up with a $79,055 net gain for Medina County using the new rate of 0.4511 per $100 valuation instead of the current rate of $.4356. My thoughts were leave it the same. Don’t know if they will or not but, I went and spoke up.
