Politicians will only start listening when they know that the citizens are serious about effecting change. If they know they will be voted out of office when they don’t do what the electorate wants, they will start listening. We want to help Manassas Park residents do this. You have to be organized and you have to start being heard. HSM will help you with that. I plan on attending the rally but don’t want to drive. So let’s get enough people together to take the bus. Greg- I believe you said if there were enough people, someone would supply the bus for us free of charge. Is that a true statement? What’s a few hours out of your day compared to what our elected officials will do if our voices aren’t heard on this subject. Park’d-

The city just set the new tax rate this week. I'm just glad I bought my house before the market started to go crazy.

Fairfax will come out of this smelling like a rose but PW and the park are gonna get buzz saw'd. There are at least 3 town homes in my development that have been empty for many months and just about every other house for a 5 square mile area in the park has a for sale sign in front of it. The fact that they approved this 35M school with the looming tax crisis is beyond me. I found out earlier this week that my mortgage just went up $40 a month. That means that 27% of my mortgage is now tax. I know of nowhere where the tax rates are that high. Couple that with the rampant illegal alien invasion and the impending real estate foreclosure crisis and that makes MP a scary place to be right now. Why oh why didn't I sell 2 years ago when I had the chance? Why! I could see this coming a mile away and the problem will get at least 3x worse towards the end of this year in the area.

With high percentage of illegal aliens in this area this is what happens. I’ve noticed that houses that used to have multiple families in them, now have one or two. I would think that the next step will be foreclosure on these homes also Does this surprise anyone? With high percentage of illegal aliens in this area this is what happens.
