Kennywood to West Mifflin: No new taxes

Posted | Contributed by Jeff

Kennywood is trying to reach an agreement via the courts with West Mifflin to avoid any new taxes that specifically target the park. The park is withholding a $500,000 payment to the borough until the agreement has been reached.

I don't blame Kennywood for wanting legal reassurance they won't get dinged again. What would stop West Mifflin from deciding to double the tax next year? Kennywood by definition is a captive taxpayer -- unless they'd care to invest the hundred million or so dollars to relocate to a more tax-friendly environment.

Woo hoo! I've got the thread to myself!

(looks around) . . . Wow, it sure is roomy in here! You don't really realize how big these things are until they're empty. Wow.

But you know, it's too empty. There's no flavor, no real character. I need to flesh it out. Bring it to life. Yeah, thats it. Think I'll get a pool table for that corner, maybe some of those antique-ish lamps like they used to have at poker games. That would really fill up this space nicely. Get me a couple of those old fashioned wicker chairs. Yep, it's a plan.

Yep. Roomy. And quiet. Really quiet.

Hello? Hellooooo . . . Ecchh-chooooooo . . .

Sorry...we're all busy obsessing over Holiblog hints ;)

Dang, you ruined it. I was going to try adding a post every three days until it fell off the board. ;)

Every party needs a pooper... ;-)
