As yo...It may actually be our own private Michigan. As you surmised, the decline in Florida's population growth rate is probably much steeper than the census data indicates. In December, public school officials announced that K-12 enrollment was virtually flat - up 0.02%. K-12 enrollment historically has grown about 60% as fast as the population in general, so chances are the population in general had grown a whopping third of a percent since the previous September. The last time Florida's school population growth was this weak was the start of 1981-1982 school year - not coincidentally the beginning of the second worst recession since the Great Depression.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32333514.post-84493082255626179172006-12-27T19:08:00.000-05:002006-12-27T19:08:00.000-05:00The SS Florida sinking...bail bail bail!!!!!The SS Florida sinking...bail bail bail!!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32333514.post-55373444225773715632006-12-27T19:07:00.000-05:002006-12-27T19:07:00.000-05:00Paradise = nightmare for many dummiesParadise = nightmare for many dummiesAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32333514.post-58637049851700246642006-12-27T16:41:00.000-05:002006-12-27T16:41:00.000-05:00I don't understand why taxes will go up.

And three months into the city's budget year, there is no telling how ugly things will get.<br /><br />The numbers so far do not bode well. New home permits in North Port have dropped by 40 percent in the past calendar year. The month-to-month comparisons are even more dismal, with November 2006 permits coming at one-third the number of permits issued in November 2005.<br /><br />Meanwhile, the city has a record $155 million budget -- a 39 percent increase over last year's spending plan -- built after two years of remarkable growth.<br /><br />The city tried to hedge its projections, but it still wound up with a budget about $43 million higher than any before it.<br /><br />Impact fees, used to pay for capital projects such as road widenings and new parks, account for $28 million of this year's budget.<br /><br />To collect that much money would take about 3,900 houses and 50 large commercial projects. The city is nowhere near that pace so far, being on track to issue about 1,000 home permits this budget year.<br /><br />"Whether we did (cut) enough or not remains to be seen," said City Manager Steven Crowell.<br /><br />Large fund balances and tens of millions of dollars unspent from the sale of abandoned lots give North Port options, but it's not going to produce thousands of new houses, or the kind of growth that gave the city enough wiggle room to slash its tax rate without cutting spending.<br /><br />=================================<br /><br />"""NOW""", CRAZY'S GOING TO GO ON RECORD TO TELL YOU THE WORST OF THE WORST IS GOING TO HAPPEN!!!!<br /><br />>>>>>""""TAXES ARE GOING """UP""<<<< FROM HERE """NOT "" DOWN!!!!!<br /><br />They've committed to spending the money, they thought they would have,,,,AND NOW THEY DON'T,,,,,Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32333514.post-11489209846979099672006-12-24T20:49:00.000-05:002006-12-24T20:49:00.000-05:00To All HMIC Business Partners,
