Bella Vista Assessment Hike Is Long Overdue

Now that the Bella Vista POA Board has voted for the 6/2 assessment increase, I encourage all eligible voters to cast their ballots. Personally I strongly urge a yes vote. Wake up, residents and owners. We have not had an increase since 2001, so smell the environment and status of 2014. If not now, when? After the infrastructure and amenities of Bella Vista have fallen in disrepair, closed, or rotted away, resulting in rock bottom property values? We better start now. Regardless, at least vote. Be a part of the process. Don't just sit and bellyache. Vote your decision. That's my opinion and you have a right to it.
