Hawaiian Acres Roads

[Tink]

Off grid and self sufficient is my game, so thank you! (Currently living "off grid" in a self sufficient community in the Sierra foothills near Brownsville, we barter between us ( one grows veggies, one raises chickens, another beef, etc.)Yes, low tax base means less infrastructure. Recession has made it quite clear that you pay more, but expect less. I don' t expect infrastructure upgrades with taxes as low as they are, but to be more self sufficient in working together as a community to reach a common goal that betters all in the community without County assistance, and also building community. Some people on the forum would like to see the County take over the road situation, but the County is obligated by Federal mandate to provide sidewalks, ADA ramps at intersections, etc. on "public" roads. How do they get the funding? Bond votes, or property tax assessments! You may not see these improvements, but their is a "drop dead" date that all States have to conform to due to the Federal Disabilities Act. So, in short, once my property sells here, the challenge is accepted, and look forward to working beside you so you can teach me the "island way", as It looks like I may need a refresher course.

Are you a human being, or a human doing?
