Re: [LincolnTalk] Impending Real Estate Tax Increase and the Proposed Community Center

I moved to Lincoln the year the school construction was added to my taxes. I am not looking forward to the same increase for another huge project. I would love to see less expensive options discussed and proposed-or is the $25 million already approved and waiting to be spent? Carol Bickford

Many of us have been waiting and/or working on the development of a community center for over 10 years. We supported the new school construction even though we have no children in our schools! And we willingly paid higher taxes for the betterment of the whole community. Many of the surrounding

Re: [LincolnTalk] Impending Real Estate Tax Increase and the Proposed Community Center

I agree with you, Sara. I don’t think we should make that investment, and instead I feel we should revisit all of our needs, prioritize them based on urgency and impact, and then debate various alternatives that comport with current economic realities and resource constraints. > On Oct 25,

I’m looking for a high-back booster seat. It is for occasional use in a grandparent’s car, and so I am hoping it is a lighter one (ie. not a Diono / Clek Foonf) so that they can lift it in and out. If you have one that your kid has grown out of, we would love to take it off your hands! Thanks,
