Well of course they (we) do, what a stoopid headline – Subdivision homeowners want their lawsuit against Boulder County kept alive – Longmont Times-Call.
The county argued in its February motion that the plaintiffs don’t have the legal standing to question the county commissioners’ budget decisions.
But the plaintiffs responded on Thursday that since their subdivision roads “have deteriorated to poor or fair condition because of intentional neglect by the county,” they have the legal right “to challenge the decision to withhold maintenance from subdivision roads in violation of state law.”
The homeowners suing the county have asserted that Boulder County has enough money in its annual budgets to rehabilitate and repave those roads, when needed, as well as to perform such routine road maintenance chores as plowing snow, patching cracks and filling potholes.
In their Thursday filing, the subdivision property owners said “carving out a class of county roads that will be excluded from some forms of maintenance is an unreasonable exercise of discretion and not a reasonable response to valid budgetary constraints.”
The BoCo Commissars view the county as either a source of open space or a cancer that should be starved.
There is a campaign being encouraged by the Obama Admin. to destroy the suburbs and drive everyone into the cities. There’s an anti-suburb tendency in the Republican Party as well. The new policy is called “regionalism.” They’re extracting funds from suburbs for urban development in the cities. One source of this is Agenda 21, but you can read something more concrete about it in Stanley Kurtz’s book, “Spreading The Wealth: How Obama is Robbing the Suburbs to Pay for the Cities.”
