- Wellardmac - 10-29-2006 Don't get me wrong, I think it would be cool to get another track that the club can go to. Jersey is certainly a "unique" place. I'd be interested in hearing what is said. Hopefully everyone gets their wishes... and soon. ![]() - Nick - 10-30-2006 The latest issue has been the legislation to pass a bill that would create a 5.5% sales tax within the park to help offset project costs. Millville is current part of an urban development program. In an effort to stimulate the local economy, state sales tax has been cut in half (3.5% rather than 7%). The Track is one of several projects that are currently in the works to turn the local economy around. I go to the meetings because it is my back yard. - Phokaioglaukos - 10-30-2006 I would go to the meeting were I in town then--not to pretend to be a local resident, but to demonstrate that there is appeal of this development and that it is important to me. The commission might be interested in that, or not. In any event, I would learn more of what is happening there, having sent in my check more than seven months ago. - TwentySix - 10-31-2006 So... how did the meeting go? - Phokaioglaukos - 10-31-2006 elizabeth26 wrote: Quote:So... how did the meeting go?It's next Monday, 11/6. - TwentySix - 10-31-2006 Damn, I guess I need another cup of coffee... back in the hole - smankow - 10-31-2006 elizabeth26 wrote: Quote:So... how did the meeting go? Chris is correct, the meeting is on 11/6/06. As of now, I am planning on making the trip down to find out what's going on. I think that Graham Knight may be joining me. If anyone else is interested in heading down, please let me know, as we can carpool or meet on the way down. I know that Nick H. is attending, but lives in the general area. After the meeting, I will provide an update and hopefully a general timeframe for the development. Steve - Tony356993 - 10-31-2006 Quote: I think that Graham Knight may be joining me. Steve, Don't let Graham say anything.... ![]() - smankow - 11-01-2006 Tony356993 wrote: Quote:Steve, Tony, I'm hoping that I don't have to say anything. I'm going down in support of the community and the track. Hopefully, there will also be a contingent from Rennlist, too.

Who are you to attend a planning meeting outside of your own town? And if Millville is "needy", I am sure that a bunch of Porsches showing up would really do a lot to break the ice. Now, Nick H. lives down there and has invested in the area. Therefore, he should attend. But don't you think it is a bit mch for the out of towners to weigh in? CCM |
