Did you check out the other part of Bloomberg.com article?
-31% sales loss of vacation homes already compared to just last year. Data from Nat. Assoc. of Realtors.
-Second/vacation homes are discretionary purchases and there is a natural tendency to pull back from big ticket items in periods of uncertainity.Comment from the Chief Economist of Realtors.
S.boat has a enormous chance of great financial loss since vacation homes and residual revenues bulk up the tax bal. sheet.
Notice hardly no comments here even though our future is questionable. People locally would rather spend time blogging in outer space rather than organizing talents to nip a sunami that likely is coming.
S.boat has mega numbers of retired and active financial attorneys,bankers,insurance specialists,etc. We all need to begin now[ already maybe too late] gathering statistics and ideas to insulate Routt County.
Who else believes Routt County could be approaching trouble and is worth protecting as much as possible?

Finally S.boat faces truth. Even Vail another notorius' stick thy head in sand and pretend, so we can sell, sell', is awake to this mortgage and credit crisis.
Vails plan
-do not spend any money on infrastructure unless absolutely necessary,since tax revenue will drop.
-Eagle county only had 104 real estate transactions in January, dropped to fewest in 12 years.
-Vails town councilmen that is a retired investment banker predicted Vail is not going to escape economic uncertainity.
[What do you think happen to S.boat?]
-Predictions in Vail are developers' finacancing will dry up, buyers will disappear and stalls on some other developments.
Like S.boat, Vail has some of those who believe saying a recession isn't coming or is here may fool potential buyers. They speak all positive lines to project a false since of security.
Knowledge ends fear. Prepare and face for worse case scenarios. Be ready. Enjoy life along the way. Admit change can actually be exciting. If nothing drastic happens financially then S.boat will have plenty of reserves for a rainy day.
Start calling and writing S.boat leadership NOW to encourage speedy preparations and request leadership not fall prey to old S.boat policies of pretending we do not have a problem.
Encourage the newspaper to put all national truths about this crisis in the paper and quit worrying about trying to cover this with baloney issues that try to precieve we are not facing trouble.
Jewelry and ski/beach vacations will be the first to be cut back . Nothing new or unknown about that.
Keep moving forward on ideas to vary revenue sources. Do not count on all ski revenue. Support S.boat leadership that supports reality. Help them move to a new realm. Get on the BOAT. Steamboat is about to sail into uncharted waters.

Hats off to the whole A.C.E.T. team. Lives saved again, again and again. So wonderful to read about this progress. It is the best news in the whole paper for today.
Now zoom in on Oak Creek. Requesting zero drug tolerance in S. Routt.

Already filed a corrupt complaint? Cancel or change it. Do not follow the crowd that follows untruths. Make choices for yourself. Separate from those that are not seeking peace but spend their days howling about OCPD at the coffee shop and nights bellowing beer boasts about hatred for OCPD.

Sorry you had to sell the home and leave OC because of the minority of thuggery.
Maybe one day soon you can return home. Many positives arriving each day in the OC.
Tomorrow's OC meeting is at 7 P.M. Alot of mislead people intend to rid themselves of Chief Russ with lies and half truths. But here's what the word of God say's about His anointed men and women “of the cloth”.
Ps. 105:15—”Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm”.
Chief Russ is a Messianic Rabbi, and is anointed [ has the spirit of God on his life ] to preach the Gospel.
There's not a chance he would ever intentionally treat any one unequally. For slightest wrong word he would apologize. Communications are always open and he really seems to enjoy new ideas and citizen input.
OC does not realize the value of Chief Russ. One good chance will be given likely before he gets called away. These types briefly enter our lives to spread peace and love for one another. We turn if only for a moment and as if Angelic, they disappear. This is'nt the first time I've seen this. Happens alot in non-Bible belt areas where people are not allowed to here the Gospel.
As for those whose intentions are corrupt towards OC progress.
ll PETER 2:10-But Chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous are they, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities.
In a nutshell–do'nt be afraid ever to communicate concerns. Make sure it is the truth and not fabricated or stretched in any fashion.

Better check info. again Chief Russ has more degrees than a thermometer. Communications?
Good attempt in quickly adding the 3rd post ….Clean it up so I do not reveal my only goal is to abolish any and all law enforcement in OC.
Wake up. The old bar mentality of OC is ending. It did not work in the past and citizens were left asking “what happened to our money?”
Albeit it did seem funny watch folks stagger from the bar over to the town hall polictical arena. Something should have been awakened then. But none of us could hear the vacuuming of money diappearance at the time. Was this decades ago or when?

Why are you worried the town budget cannot afford Judges? Does the Judge currently not help OC for free or near it?
With the mess of drugs and drunk drivers do you not understand other Judges would assist OC for free until law and order is restored? At worst scenario the cost is minimal.
Besides with all the good and absolutely fair arrests Chief Russ and Sgt.Eric are making the revenue may rise high enough to buy OC it's very own courthouse.
Look on the horizon neighbor a new refreshed OC is coming.

While getting groceries last night noticed OCPD in grocery parking lot arresting another drunk driver. God bless you Eric for serving and protecting our lives by putting you own life on the line. Who knows who that drunk may have run over. OCPD does a fantastic job and I stand totally behind them!!!!!!
