Thank you for your letter regarding low-income
housing.
I want to see
community development funds eliminated completely from the federal budget. So do a lot of other people.
That economic law of supply
and demand cannot be controlled by government.
When government tries to intercede, the opposite of the desired effect
will always be the aftermath.
Government is not helping low-income people. It is hindering them by over taxation and bidding up the price of
low-priced housing.
Community Development gives
away money to private nonprofit corporations without demanding copies of their
IRS Form 990. How much are these people
taking out for salaries and perquisites?
At least, change the rules regarding this.
This is federal grant money
that our grandchildren will have to pay back.
When will this child molestation stop?
The sole purpose of HUD, Community Development and many other government programs is to provide jobs for government employees who are not qualified for the private enterprise sector.

I phoned your Spokane office
this morning and spoke with Nancy. I
wanted the address of a specific government agency. She phoned your DC office; and when I phoned back, she gave me
the name of another agency that I should write to and that they would forward
my letter appropriately.
Now, I just do not operate
in this manner. If the first agency
does not like my letter, they will not forward it.
Nancy said that I had not
been honest and up front with them, letting them know what I wanted to contact
the agency about.
Your office here acts like
the KGB. It is none of their business
what I want to contact a particular agency about. It also reflects badly upon you as a member of congress. As a member of congress, you are supposed to
represent and serve all constituents. I
phoned your DC office requesting that you phone me back. You did not.
If you cannot eliminate these undesirables from your Spokane office, you can expect to be eliminated from office yourself.

On or about 1999 August 2,
the City of Spokane, Washington purchased property in conjunction with a street
project for $165,000.00.
For the tax year 1999, the
said property was assessed at $78,200.00.
For the tax year 2000, the
said property was assessed at $99,200.00.
This tax assessment increase
of $21,000.00 amounts to an increase of 26.85%. The owner of the property could have appealed the assessment.
On 1999 August 2, I spoke
with Spokane County Chief Deputy Assessor John Sweetman. He assured me that the 1999 tax assessment
of $78,200.00 was the fair market value for the property.
There is no way that the
owner could sell the property for $100,000.00 because of all of the vehicle
traffic that transverses on that street.
But, suppose he could. The city
does not want to go through condemnation proceedings, so offer him an extra
$20,000.00 or even $25,000.00, but not an extra $65,000.00.
Spokane City staff Real
Estate Manager Dennis Beringer, (509) 625-6155, says that an appraiser for the
Washington State Department of Transportation appraised the property at
$165,000.00 and that is the amount that they offered.
