Breaking soon: "An unnamed city public utilities agency may have been fraudulently charging residents, while neglecting to ensure those charges were accurate or even respond to residents' questions in a timely manner, in the third precinct area of Richmond, which includes neighborhoods like The Fan, Stony Point and Willow Lawn, according to Richmond Police."

Yeah I live a block from Ironclad and never go there. It's just too expensive for what it is.

Happier better paid staff = better education for students. Do you want to do your job when you're paid squat and have less resources annually?

Cemeteries are stupid.

Permanent cemeteries are a weird American thing.

The living need housing more than the dead. The land would be better used for housing.

Especially within the town limits. Pretty much all the new (shitty) builds are outside of the town limits.

No

That's an addition of 8 hours! Sounds about right, though.

It might also be the difference between the landlord considering staying a landlord and continuing to rent the house out or selling it and getting out of it entirely.

An extra $1,200 is a fairly small amount when it comes to the headache around real estate, home maintenance, increased taxes, and (optionally) property management.

Let's just jump right to the 2- 24 hour days. Sponsored by Monster Energy.

beat me to it!

>wow. she really made a good bit of coin starving those poor horses to afford that attorney, I would imagine. What a POS.

Doubtful that landlord's property taxes increased that much. Our latest assessment in Lakeside only increased 9% in the last year and added $109 to our taxes for the entire year.

Unless that home's value jumped up significantly due to improvements and nearby sales, it's unlikely it was due to the taxes.

YES. this is so true! I have zero interest in working 4 long ass days, especially when my day never ends at 5 regardless of my "schedule" and night/weekend participation in events, etc is always required.

Mine went up $450 last year- I looked and there really aren’t any protections for renters in this case. I’d love to be wrong, so please tell me if I am, but we had to just deal or move. My research didn’t provide any helpful recourse.

I need a steal like that this summer.

Yeah, same.

I leased a gorgeous 1,850 sq. ft. 2/2 loft in Shockoe Bottom, with a balcony, and included private off-street parking, and private gym for $1,505/mo. from 2012-2014. That same exact unit is going for around $2,100/mo. now.

A huge 3/3 loft for $1,512/mo. that won't increase for 3 years is ludicrous to me.

I’m moving the week of the 13th. I will cry if the ground is covered in snow while I’m hauling boxes.

Why do you think unionization of principals will be better for students?

Hey it’s the “how much does this job pay?” person!

I will add renters insurance is very helpful but never get it through the company you are renting from.

I had two big ol' crows hopping around by my bird feeder yesterday, and I was just sitting there like this: https://media.tenor.com/sVHD32ht7b4AAAAd/rose-moira.gif

Cigs. hotels, vehicle "license" fees. We pay additional taxes for all our tools at work as well.

Getting ready to take calls and get yelled at until 6pm. Luckily Tuesdays are a tiny bit slower for some reason

This is a good point. You can use Zillow and apartments.con to find out what your market value is based on zip code or even comparing other rentals within blocks of your current address. A 3/1 should NEVER cost $2K especially in lakeside unless somehow it’s 2000 sqft with a big yard and deck. Not to mention a DISHWASHER.
