Welcome to FBSolutions. We're here to help you keep an eye on your local government. Our
goal is to present the rest of the story
... background on local issues, how our government
is supposed to work, how it actually works, and plenty of difficult-to-access
information that creates a thread through seemingly disconnected events.
Your occasionally gentle host is Fred Blackmer. If you have complaints, praise or suggestions, you can reach Fred at: FredBlackmer@aol.com
And speaking of Fred, here's a note from him....
Subscribers: This is an opportunity to have the same information that land use professionals have been paying for. It also includes one on one answers to questions about specific issues. Regular updates on County, City and agency meetings will be posted. Detailed reports on Impact Fees, Zoning, Property Taxes, Board of Education and general interest items will be presented in chapter form. Background information on current headlines coupled with direct links to relevant regulations will allow better understanding of issues.
I have always believed that the best guarantee of responsive government and the “Rule of Law” is an informed public. This site is dedicated to that end. Hope to hear from you soon…….

When I attend meetings, read the paper or see Internet postings about what my local government has done on any particular day, I wonder. Are they doing their job? What is their job? Where do I even start looking to find out?
This is a Nation of laws. Surely the answer is somewhere in State statute.
Now you have a choice to make.
