As I say it is hard to believe but when the village doesn't come out and say how much rumors fill the void of information. Another big hit to the tax payer is I read in the village minutes that the outgoing police chief is being paid $70,000 for severence pay. How is this possible? If wrong please post correct info.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5060278883118319195.post-141538167191256452011-03-10T06:26:29.650-05:002011-03-10T06:26:29.650-05:00Ms. Knarr- How about the rest of the story- Check ...Ms. Knarr- How about the rest of the story- Check with village officials, ask them how much the demolition bill was and who paid it. You will be shocked. Bad news<br />Speaking of bad news, I see Lyons has a new interim police chief. There is another in-depth story. "Chief" Bogan will schedule his police work around his electrical business, teach his officers how to screw the village financially, and generally treat people badly.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5060278883118319195.post-8761226499724580742011-03-09T21:07:41.429-05:002011-03-09T21:07:41.429-05:00Check out the tax kick backs farmers get so the ot...Check out the tax kick backs farmers get so the other residents have to pay highter taxes.

The village and town want to put a full time code enforcement officer on the rolls for the first time in LYons History.... Does this fiasco offer proof one is needed, or proof that our current officer is just too overloaded with regulations that he cannot follow up on more routine inspections closer to his office? Hmm... Regarding unpaid taxes: At least this building appears to have been on the tax rolls at full amount. Has anyone ever looked at the tax rolls and noticed all the EXEMPT private residences and building in the village? hmm... Just some food for thought and discussion.Andrew DeWolfnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5060278883118319195.post-67147648079711599942011-03-07T13:32:15.164-05:002011-03-07T13:32:15.164-05:00the taxpayers are getting stuck with the demo bill...the taxpayers are getting stuck with the demo bill, a new roof would of been a couple grandAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5060278883118319195.post-28366580675769277222011-02-19T15:49:06.277-05:002011-02-19T15:49:06.277-05:00The little bit of history I have been able to conf...The little bit of history I have been able to confirm on the building is this... It has been owned by the Sculli family for many years. Daughter, Vicki Miller somehow inherited the parcel upon the death of her parents. Vicki now owns the building, but has been unable to be reached for comment. She also owns the parcel (house) next door, in which currently, both parcels had been up for sale for the past several weeks... however there are back taxes due on both properties. It's last use was a Sporting Goods store and an Upholstery Shop, both of which names donned the windows.Stephanie Knarrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10362532412198008099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5060278883118319195.post-25612280768385335372011-02-19T09:22:56.447-05:002011-02-19T09:22:56.447-05:00What is the history of that building?
