Today's one-liner: "The shortest way to the distinguishing excellence of any writer is through his hostile critics." Richard LeGallienne
A tax break known as a TIF for the Dixie Cup factory in Wilson Borough will be introduced tonight at NorCo Council. Dixie Cup has a TIF before. Principal Joe Reibman failed when he sought a LERTA because it was going to be partially used for warehouse space and there were unpaid real estate taxes. We'll soon learn how the property will be developed.
Council will also consider a resolution providing for a voluntary employee health center.
You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
Oh God! Why are we still giving tax breaks to these fat cat developers. They are clogging up the county with thousands of overpriced apartments. The traffic is a mess.
ReplyDeleteStop giving tax breaks to all these developers. Politicians act like we are a backwater area that no one wants to come to. Those days are long gone.
There is zero chance Lori Vargo Heffner will allow the employee health office. The real question is is she carrying St. Luke’s water ?
ReplyDeleteHow about tax them and lower school district real estate taxes for the elderly
ReplyDeleteMcClueless needs to go!!!!! An employee health center -- What a JOKE!!! Just like the daycare. What about the rest of Northampton County. Who is paying for all this???? McClueless has now totally lost him mind -- even if he has one after all his boozing.
ReplyDeleteGet over it. You are stuck with him for another 9.6 years. No Dem runs against him in the primary and Republicans can't win in Norco.
DeleteAnon 7:30 am (aka Lori's fools) you are up early today. Now get to work serving your masters at St. Luke's Hospital. Get those billable appointment hours in. Get those RVUs up as that's what's important to that "non-profit hospital" "university" hospital.
ReplyDelete7 to 10 millions dollars of taxpayers money over 5 years to save maybe 2 million dollars every year for 3.5 years.My health care goes up nobody gives me brake to cut cost. McClure forgets there are other
ReplyDeletevariables that drive up health cost. How about people who don't have health care. The hosiptals will not turn those people away. But county employees have golden benefits now . Oh yea, they can't get a same day appointment, they must wait to the last minute. I always get a same day appointment. Their benefits are high also because they reimbuse the employee their co-pays . I wish I had no co-pay and I worked for 50 years and still do partime work to survive in this inflation economy. Again employees want the hourly wage increase instead.
