I know one thing: I just saw a whole lot of "Pro-St. George" signs get replaced with for sale signs this week.

Now that's funny, right there, I don't care who you are......

We all know my limitations, but you are the genius who usually has it do organized you can click to any document in a milli second.

But now you can't find the link to the 38 million tax figure and you're having trouble understanding Sprockets and myself.

I'm confused, isn't Kip the Mayor-President of the entire Parish?

And why shouldn't SG get Green Light projects like everyone else in the parish?

Yes, it does. You went from "nothing prevents the St George effort from moving forward" to "we don't know what affect the annexations will have."

That's a big difference. You can keep denying it's a very different statement, but that won't make it true.

---

Those aren't mutually exclusive, Mr. "Genius". We don't know what affect it will have, yet we will continue moving forward. They will collect the rest of the signatures, and keep marching on with the process. You are grasping at straws.

Of course SG should get projects from the Green Light Program. I was stating that the SG area is not being ignored like the poster was acting like.

And it could be nothing. Did the Mall say they would save 5% or was that the Geico lizard?

Here's an example of what happens when your fire rating improves:

GONZALES — Homeowners on Ascension Parish’s unincorporated west bank can expect “significant” reductions in their fire insurance premiums early next month, state insurance officials said.

The Property Insurance Association of Louisiana lowered the fire rating by one class for areas outside Donaldsonville after a survey in July, the west bank’s fire chief said Friday.

State insurance officials announced that that a $150,000 home could see a premium decrease of $93 to about $1,337 annually.

That’s about a 6.5 percent drop.

State insurance officials said the rate reduction takes effect Oct. 10, though premium reductions could vary with the value of property and other factors.

“They really did make the difference,” Montero said.

Commissioner of Insurance Jim Donelon commended the efforts of parish officials and firefighters.

“Your efforts to make your property safer have brought about the lowering of your fire protection grading, which results in lower insurance rates on your homes and other property,” Donelon said in the statement.

Kip I don't shop in that place anyway. But whatever makes you Baton Rouge folk happy. Hell drive the whole tax base out of EBR and let's see what's left.

would be funny
























































































except it's true. Driven through South BR lately?

The article says "homes and other property". Why have the different class ratings if they don't apply? Private retailers have to get insurance just like everyone else.

Nobody has disputed the claim that cheaper insurances rates will follow these businesses after annexation so I'm not sure what you are looking for here exactly.

I realize its one class difference but 5% sounds reasonable. Regardless, these businesses aren't just gonna trust William Daniel's word. I'm sure they saw proof.

Kip would hate to lose all those red light cameras they placed in the St.George area, he may have to put one at. Airline and Prescott if he lost that Money grab. $130 every time someone doesn't come to a complete stop. Kip let's put one at N 22nd at Florida. can't lose those working tax payers. I'm happy for all of you who love Baton Rouge, but I drove through Denver,Dallas and Houston last week and yesterday it took me longer at 345pm to get from highland to the new bridge. Exactly 58 mins. Baton Rouge is a joke. And a lost cause at that. I'd suggest to any working tax payer to leave it while you still can get money for your homes.
