Elk Konnected Hand out at County Commissioners meeting on 4/25

[frawin]

Another Elk Konnected, LLC Follower blowing smoke, right?
Who really has no intentions of moving to Elk County or he would have, don't you suppose?

But hey if you are serious, I have Ocean Front Property in Elk County for sale, Cheap.
$10 an acre.
How many acres do you want buy today?

Oh, I'm so sorry, the sale ended 10 minutes ago!

So anyway, I guess if this program fails, you won't be moving to Elk County, huh?

How fortunate for Elk County!

You probably moved away from Elk County for some of the same reasons others have?
But why don't you  --- tell us why you moved away?

Ross, I own more property and pay more taxes in Elk County than you do. I have nothing to do with Elk Konnect. It is none of your business why I left Elk County.

[Ross]

Ross, I own more property and pay more taxes in Elk County than you do. I have nothing to do with Elk Konnect. It is none of your business why I left Elk County.

So do you totally deny Elk Konnected, LLC, no Konnections what so ever? I think this is a very important question and deserves an honest response, don't you?

But first before you answer consider the following:

If I move back the first thing I would do is join Elk Connect and donate time and Money to help with all of the good things they do for the people all over the county.

I think that qualify's you as a Follower and also because you Follow and support them on this thread.
So tell me again, you have nothing to do with Elk Konnected, LLC as a Follower or Supporter, please?
However, I admit you are entitled to your opinions, just as I and everyone else on this Forum, on this thread.
Need I post more quotes of you?

So is owning more property and paying more taxes then I do, give you a some special right, to deserve, not to continue paying your fair share of property taxes on new additions to that property? You know, the  property tax rebates which I call County Welfare? But today you are paying your fair share, just as I am, and nothing more, right? Or does fair share mean nothing to you? I have one up on you, I am a resident of El County, that is if we are looking for one-ups man ship. And I love living here.

I bet you left Elk County to find or follow a good paying job. There just aren't to many good paying jobs with decent benefits in Elk County are there? But information such as that could benefit Elk County, don't you think? Especially  since they can't seem to figure that out.

But you know as I pointedly asked, is this plan an Elk Konnected, LLC idea via Konnected Kounty Kommissioners and Konnected Kounty Employees? And no one seems to admit it or especially deny it, why?

I have even pointedly asked if Elk Konnected, LLC might be the "Old Guard" they have referred to, only in a new dress. And again, no one seems to admit it or especially deny it, why?

I don't think this whole Elk Konnected, LLC  topic is about conservatism or socialism, but, more about control, control of Elk County and Elk County Government and Elk County Residents. Just My Humble Opinion. Just like the big idea Elk konnected, LLC turned over to the County Commissioners included a "A Centrally located unified Government and doing away with the various City Councils", Might we consider that idea?

If you don't think it is even a remote possibility, vote for Konnected Kounty Kommissioners Hendricks and Liebau and keep the same status quo.

But, we do have alternatives, don't we?

If you are happy with the present trending of our Elk County Government in what I consider, pulling the wool over our eyes with double talk and the lack of transparency in our government leave well enough alone.


I wonder, will Konnected Kounty Kommissioners be successful at being re-elected to County Commissioner?

Is the existing trajectory of Elk County spending, taxation and administrative practices sustainable?

         Perhaps the basic problem is not cyclical, perhaps it is structural?

                                       Perhaps the time to act is now.

Don't you think?

If everything is cool with you change nothing. It is actually that easy!
Remember, my opinions are my own, please stick to your own opinions, and your own principles.

Let's get out the vote.  

[Ross]

Have you read this weeks newspaper?

They are at it again?

Isn't leaching off the county getting tiring?

Where is the line between Elk Konnected, LLC (a privately owned company) and the Elk County Governent?
Can anyone explain that to me?

Well anyway you decide for yourself!

Prairie Star, page 11, Notes From the Prairie, column 1, fifth paragraph.
And I quote:

Come cool off at the fair!
Huge water slide at Longton
Fair Grounds, Aug. 2-3 from
3-9 p.m. and Aug. 4from 1-9
p.m.    Co-sponsored by Elk County and Elk Konnected.

End quote.

Will be possibly be seeing the T-shirts purchased by county funds for advertising Elk Konnected on the backs of our Elk County Children?
Will there be a sign there at the slide advertising Elk Konnected, LLC a privately owned company?
Will there be a sign there at the slide advertising funded by the Elk County Government?
Or will the privately owned company take all the credit for the slide?
It will be interesting to see, won't it?

But, we do have alternatives, don't we?

[Ross]

This is different isn't it?
I quote myself and answer my own questions, the best I can, since no one else will give any answers.
Please bear with me. LOL

Have you read this weeks newspaper?

Sorry, I can't answer this one for you.

They are at it again?

I think so, still at it!

Isn't leaching off the county getting tiring?

Well,  I find it tiring!

Where is the line between Elk Konnected, LLC (a privately owned company) and the Elk County Governent?

I can't find it. Can you?

Can anyone explain that to me?

Why does it continue? Perhaps some voting will do the trick!
Votes for change in our county Government, hopefully!
Tuesday is just around the corner. Please vote!

Well anyway you decide for yourself!

Well.  I was there for the Barbeque, which was very good. And I saw a lot of people I know, and did some chit-chatting. I also had my niece from Wichita and my great niece from Texas with me, who enjoyed the meal and the friendly country atmosphere. I saw no signs of Elk Konnected, LLC anywhere. No support, no volunteering to help the community. I did see the giant water slide. I didn't happen to see any signs saying who was responsible for it. Isn't that a bit unusual? But, heck I'm blind in one eye and can't see out of the other. Did any one else see any signs.
I did leave a hefty donation in the donor jar. So guess what? After hearing Kounty Kommissioner Liebau state at the "Meet and Greet the Candidate", that's the way he volunteers, by donating. So I guess, I volunteered last evening. Yea for me.

Will there be a sign there at the slide advertising Elk Konnected, LLC a privately owned company?

I saw no signs. Did you?

Will there be a sign there at the slide advertising funded by the Elk County Government?

Again, no sign giving credit to our Elk County Government and the taxpayers. Oh, well.

Or will the privately owned company take all the credit for the slide?
It will be interesting to see, won't it?

Nope, not that I saw.
You know for a community organizer that claims to want to the communities together I find it strange that Elk Konnected, LLC doesn't participate in any of the real and actual communities festivals or parades. Where is the community spirit and support from Elk Konnected, LLC? Or is their interest only on city and county governments?
What is really going on?
Let's play with some words for fun. I read these on the internet today.
Director of life enrichment ---- responsible for planning, organising and implementing a programme of therapeutic activities and events for senior adults ranging in age from 73-101
Director of first impressions --- receptionist
Environmental maintenance officer ---- garbage man
Anti-social Behaviour co-ordinator --- sound a bit like someone who actually organizes anti-social Behaviour
Director of operational excellence
Underwater ceramic technician ---- dish washer
Reprographics ---- photocopier
Drain surgeon ---- deals with stopped-up toilets and does sewer line cleanings
Media publications administrator ---- paper-boy
Sandwich technician ---- I didn't realize making sandwiches was so technical
Transparent-wall maintenance engineer --- window cleaner
Refreshments and nutrition supervisor ---- worked in the office canteen
Textile masseur ---- mops floors
Meat distribution engineer --- butcher's boy
Eviction technicians --- nightclub bouncers
Washroom operatives --- bathroom cleaners
Revenue protection officers ---- ticket collectors
Chicken engineer --- chicken farmer

My addition to this is
Property Tax Rebate --- County Welfare.
Property Tax Rebate --- Property Tax Kick back.
Property Tax Rebate --- Not paying ones fair share.
Rather entertaining the way words can be manipulated isn't it?

Will the Konnected Kounty Kommissioners be re-elected, so the appearance of our county government being ran by a privately owned company continues ?  ?

It's a real drama, isn't?
                              You have a real say in this drama.
                                                                                     If you get out there and vote.
           Pass the word and enjoy the drama with your friends.

We do have alternatives, don't we?

Deb:
If there is a zoning in your area, then there should be a person in charge of that.  For us it is the County Coorindater..for you it may be a 3-hat person.
I would start with your city council hall in the town of which you wish to build.
No one should be hired at this time for a zoning issue.  If that is the case, then wow, just wow!

Rebate?  Ross has a different take on that term.  He has made his point clearly over and over.
It is of ny opinion and experience, that people jump on the bandwagon for a break, (the welfare users) do what is needed for the duration, get their kicks and jollies, then move away.   That is why it called a 'break'. 
Now, most SERIOUS people will utilize (NOT USE) the situation to 'take a break" from the financial business/building end, untill the next quarter of profits, or in the homeowne's instance...when the savings gets built up.
That's how I see it.

The county had no revenue from that piece of land, so no loss.
The county gets a few years of still getting nothing....(if not an incentive, then they get a big pacyheck, and the owner can't pay the next year's tax bill.) that is a loss.
In due time, the county gets its revenue, proviiding the owner is serious.

My take, and no squirrels were hurt in this message
ready

[Patriot]

Ross, I own more property and pay more taxes in Elk County than you do...

And that qualifies you for what, exactly?

[Patriot]

does anyoneknow if there is a buiding and zoning...

Elk County is an unzoned entity.  Can't speak for the incorporated towns.  If this passes, however, I would look for some move to zone the county (and require building permits, etc.) in the near future if the incumbents are re-elected.

[Ross]

Ross, I own more property and pay more taxes in Elk County than you do. I have nothing to do with Elk Konnect. It is none of your business why I left Elk County.

And that qualifies you for what, exactly?

County Welfare, that's what!
And I suppose these days it's a pride thing to ask for welfare.
Well personally, I don't have that kind of pride!
I have always paid my fair share and I have never cheated on my taxes, either!

[redcliffsw]

Can't disagree with that.
