annexation issues

Youngs read the definition of natural boundaries in Council and it seems that 36th street meets every requirement listed. 41st street is not a main thoroughfare and never has been. Its not even worth wasting our breath over. Case closed. In other news, nothing was mentioned about any 100+ million in capital improvements that may be being considered by the County. IF that is true, it puts a whole different light on this entire annexation process. The Council or the Mayor needs to ask that specific question of the County and get it on the record. North from 36 street to 58 street is the parcel MS is interested in and this would affect MS greatly. MS is currently running a deficit for this year and will have at least a 1.5 million dollar deficit NEXT year. We cant afford to pay our bills now, without going into the Reserve Fund, how could we afford MORE debt? If Hurricane Ike wipes out our reserves in cleanups, we are in deep doo doo.
