Mayor
Elect-Greg Collins & Wife Robin
The
new Mayor elect of Kemah, Greg Collins, was the Councilman who
placed the Appraisal Cap resolution, at the request of Kemah
citizens, on the agenda. The council passed the resolution in
support of the 5% apraisel cap. One blogger named Gracey, wrote
"When we don't make the income to cover our expenses we need to
prioritize our "appetite" to fit our income." Governments must be made
to do the same?
Government, not
satisfied to live within its citizens means will be faced by
angry citizens who will find fiscally conservative representatives who
will. The elected officials & bureaucrats of government
need note that the election in Kemah/Friendswood was not a quirk or
unique it is and was the trend all over the state.

GALVESTON,
Texas — President Bush only the 4th President to visit Galveston,
brought his Social Security restructuring campaign
to a county where public employees began opening personal retirement
accounts two decades ago. The President said the rest of the country
could learn from their experience. Bush was
joined by five participants in the Galveston plan, including the
Galveston county judge, Jim Yarbrough, and a county retiree, Kathryn
Novelli, who said she had benefited financially from the Galveston
retirement plan.

Legislation to cap property tax at 5% was
defeated by incumbents
April
12, 2005 -- Legislation to cap property tax appraisals and give
much needed relief to over burdened home owners was defeated by the
Texas House of Representatives on Tuesday handing a victory to Texas
Association of Counties, Texas Conference of Urban Counties and the
Texas Municipal League lobbyist
who fought against the caps. "They Whooped as they killed it."
Debated
Tuesday in the House
House Joint Resolution 35: Would amend the Texas
Constitution to decrease the amount by which property tax appraisals
can increase annually from 10 percent to 5 percent and would extend the
cap to all property. Failed in the House 81-65.
Here is how Galveston County area
representatives
voted on a motion Tuesday
to reject a proposal for property appraisals to be capped at 5
percent a year.
A yes vote was to effectively
kill the legislation:
Yes
