As usual, Mr. Marion Wall of Kingsland GA, AKA "Church Lady" is both an idiot and a damnable liar.

However, the clean way to do it, to avoid the eminent domain issue, is to create a new TAD Authority for no other purpose than to administer the governmental unit's issued TADs.Why would our COUNTY JDA administer a CITY TAD? When I get a call back from David Keating, I'll let you know the Camden JDA's involvement in this, if any.July 22, 2009 9:34 AM The lastest lie of the idiot Marion Wall: "so Moreno supports a TAD." Anyone who has been following my writings on this knows that is a deliberate falsehood.

Please do not take this question as a trap. It is a simple question that I think must be asked of you. To quote your blog, “Please keep it clean and reasonably civil. "Public figures" are fair game, consistent with the "actual malice" exception. I suggest you Google both terms before you go off half-cocked.”

You have made every indication that you will be a public figure in the near future. Therefore I ask this simple question. How to you vote on the last TAD, and why? I look forward to a civil answer. Name calling and such is not needed. Thank you.

"How to you vote on the last TAD, and why?"

Would you mind re-thinking and re-writing your question? I take it you mean how did I vote as a private citizen and not an elected official on the Durango TAD, and why. Is that what you are asking?
I would point out that how I voted on that one does not necessarily shed any light on how I would vote on another one or even another one on the same property. I have and will evaluate each one on its own merits.

If, unlike Mr. Wall, you do not have a long and sordid history of publicly slandering and libeling me with outrageous lies and encouraging others to vote against me and revile and hate me solely because I do not share his religious beliefs, then you have absolutely no reason to implore me not to call you names, much less be anything but courteous to you.

Wow, I did not know that a simple question would be so answered with such venom. I am not Mr. Wall, have no idea who Mr. Wall, is, and don’t care. Your views on religion are you business, and I never brought them up, you did. OK I will ask again, how did you vote to the last TAD as a private citizen, and why? Now that you have ostensibly thrown your hat in the ring to run for office, I think the electorate has the right to know. If you have to take a few minutes out of your busy day to explain why and the difference so be it. You are running a campaign are you not? Let us know your point of view. I do believe that the merits of both TAD’s are similar, you may not, and that is OK. So just tell us how you voted last time as a private citizen with aspirations for running for office. That is an important point don’t you think?

I would encourage you to remain blissfully ignorant of Mr. Wall. I would not know the man to see him, but he has taken it upon himself to do everything possible to impugn my reputation - ostensibly because I once refused his offer to carry my breakfast to my table at a Republican Grits-n-Bits breakfast! No, seriously, that's it. That he would encourage others to vote against me because I am not an adherent of the majority religion is despicably vile and un-American. I would suggest that his actions should offend all decent Americans.

Now that you've more clearly stated your querstion, I'm glad to answer it. After careful consideration, albeit without the extensive research I've done on the TAD law in response to this this latest one, I voted ahgainst it. Here's why. A quick Google of the company requesting the TAD showed that they were a major, interstate developer with very deep pockets and a good track record -at that time. Their parent company was Duke Power out of North Carolina. At that time, I think very few if any of us had a crystal ball warning of the impending bursting of the real estate bubble and the near collapse of the finanacial markets per se. It therefor appeared to me that even though their plans were a good thing for St. Marys and not too ambitious, they were a very sophisticated and well capitalized developer who would no doubt proceed with their plans without the assistance of a TAD. The TAD would just have been a profit boosting icing on the cake. As it turns out, they did, after the defeat of the TAD, begin demolition, the first stage of the project, almost immediately, vice scrapping the deal. The bubble burst and general economic downturn may well have come as almost as much of a surprise to them as the rest of us.

While it turns out that we dodged a bullet with that one, anyone who claims to have been in possession of sufficent economic prescience to have known the bubble burst was coming - especially a certain local obstructionist - is full of it.

Your obvious follow on corollary would be what is my position on the Laurel Island TAD. Answer: I'm still weighing the facts - which clearly are not all in yet - and the risk / benefit ananlysis.

And by the way, I am not a declared candidate for anything, though I am considering it.

P.S.,

The "venom," as you surely know, was directed entirely against the evil bastard Wall, not you.
