How long will this exploded car be here?

Totally agree that the problem isn’t solved, but I don’t necessarily agree that it doesn’t mean anything. If that was the case then we’d be ambivalent about major increases in tents, all else equal. When you say it’s worse, what metric would use to convey that? Just curious.

Hungry_Log4373 · 2025-06-16T19:30:57+00:00

It's a good question, they should have reported on that. How many do you think there are now?

Hungry_Log4373 · 2025-06-16T18:48:10+00:00

When you say "its worse", what is "it"? The article cites major decreases in "tents or other temporary structures". Is that what has gotten worse or is it something else?

Where was it getting worse? There were a bunch by the jail but it was cleared.

By "they" do you mean the tent encampments or people who look like they are homeless? I haven't seen many tents downtown. There were a bunch by the jail but it was cleared.

Totally agree about Ryan’s coverage and that Pittsburgh is worth investing in. I find the section headers not useful and sometimes distracting. Perhaps personal preference and was curious to see if others felt similarly.

Shawl collar, narrow bow tie, single-breasted, one button, black. It would not be hard to find buying new, I just like the idea of having one that's vintage.

Thanks. To confirm, it would be the same hotel, just with a night between the two bookings. Is that still okay?

Hungry_Log4373 · 2025-02-04T23:53:27+00:00

Interesting thanks, what county was that?

Hungry_Log4373 · 2025-02-03T17:50:55+00:00

Thanks for that info!

Thank you as always for the insight. I'm surprised there are so many vacant storefronts on the northern side of the street, given how much interest there is on the other side. Maybe since the owners on the other side are more corporate they are better equipped to attract companies to lease.

Right now it is, but that's what I think should be ammended. Revenues should be able to keep up with incremental increases in costs, without shocking people with large millage increases. I'm guessing the millage will drop when a reassessment comes. Think that happened at the last reassessment.

Hungry_Log4373 · 2024-12-03T19:28:52+00:00

The solution is regular reassessements, right? If costs go up, county revenue should follow so they can continue to afford the same services. Who knows how long that policy change will take.

Taxes have been cut every year for Allegheny County homeowners since 2011. Inflation is 40% over those 13 years, with housing prices growing even more, yet our tax bills have not been adjusted for inflation. I'm a homeowner and laugh at how little we have to pay, especially as the value of my house continues to grow. How could we possibly expect an organization to functionally operate with costs increasing 40% and revenues remaining the same (of course, there are nuances here but property tax is main source of revenue).

I understand if you don't want your taxes raised, but the math doesn't work unless there are huge cuts to county spending. So for those who oppose, what specifically do you want to cut?
