It's WHAFIS, not WHALIS, and it MUST be incorporated in the overland wave propagation modeling. I've…Read More been telling you this for weeks @Spooner. I offered to discuss it, but you were caught up on some sand blaster theory. BFE's will certainly be affected. As a sidebar, the author of the link mentioned mixed up the mapping terms. We currently have effective maps or FIRM's which establish BFE. The maps (ABFE)that were released in December and adopted as the state building code (+ freeboard) are advisory (incomplete and wrong). Working maps are due out in a few weeks followed shortly thereafter by preliminary maps, which are the maps that can be appealed. Approximately 18 to 24 months after the release of the preliminary maps there will be new effective maps (new FIRM's) with new BFE 's. If the preliminary maps are not drastically different than the ABFE's, you can count on a mass of appeals, and quite likely, protracted litigations.

They can't think for themselves and they can't have a civil debate of ideas....this was instilled for years by JP....since he's not around any longer, they are trying to uphold this pitiful positioning about what it means to run and be a civil servant. Quite sad for that matter... BTW, I spoke in person with Greg....he's a fine person and a Police Officer. CERTAINLY more class in his pinky than Resident of Lacey and his ilk.

They are definitely here to stay and our efforts at getting rid of them are ill-conceived. We can…Read More move them from one place to another, if absolutely necessary. Where I live in Scarsdale NY, Geesebusters got rid of the geese from the library pond. The pond is now devoid of waterfowl but loaded with turtles for some reason. Pretty soon people will be complaining about salmonella, calling them an "invasive species" or some other ridiculous argument. In my town, egg-oiling was done to keep the population in check, and if this annual process is done in every community (takes about a day or two once per year), the whole issue can be put in perspective and costs nothing. People really need to get over this irrational irritation with geese.

The Canada Goose--not Canadaian Goose-- or Canada Geese in the plural form ( and of which there are…Read More several sub species) is native to North America and can be found in Canada, the USA and Mexico,as well as Europe and even as far away as China. Canada, as we know it today, was under British rule from 1763 ( the treaty of Paris) until 1867 when it became it's own dominion. Prior to that it was largely populated by the French which ceded most of it's North American Colonies after the Seven Years' War. Preceding the arrival of the Colonial Eurpeans, modern day Canada and been inhabited by distinct groups of Aboriginal civilizations for centuries dating back to the arrival of the Paleo-Indians. For what it is worth, Native American Goose would be much more fitting identification than Canada Goose. That being said, the geese are here to stay.I don't care how many kites you fly or how many dogs are being supported by the Lacey Township Board of Education. With the apparent distaste of the Natural Gas Industry by various federal administrations, I would support technology that would convert goose droppings to an energy producing fuel. Supply and demand would support this outside the box thinking. Go Green!

at this time you do NOT need to worry about the comp sales or whatever reduction you are asking for…Read More - just leave it blank on the form. Just complete the portion that is applicable to your current situation. Your comps and requested valuation is needed 7days before your appeal hearing.. You will need to provide that information to the county, town tax assessor and clerk. Write the information as a letter and hand deliver - get them to date stamp your copy. When you are researching comps go to the property tax web site (listed below) to see the data on the lot size, house size and MOST importantly - NON USE CODE. There are about 30 variations. Use sales that are dated 10/2011 to 10/2012. If you use a appraiser- it cant be a bank apprasial and the appraiser MUST be present at the hearing. Lastly - you can not make any statments on $ VALUATION - you are not qualified.. so dont bother to try to add or reduce value for anything different on your comps. Your town tax collector and town atty will not allow it at the hearing. http://www.njactb.org/
