This breaks down to $55,000 per acre when the value per acre should have been about $1647 per acre. Think of the tax write off of $1.1 million vs the $33,000 that this land should have come in at; that is a $1,067,000 Write Off!<br />Lucky and the Parish then worked a deal where Lucky “sold” an additional 88 acres, Lucky & Bossier Parish averaged their MAI appraisals to $80,000 per acre, equating to a whopping appraised value of $7,040,000! Keep in mind that Lucky keeps the mineral rights!<br />Using today’s averaged values of approximately $1647 per acre, the total land value of the 88 acres should have been about $145,000. The difference between $7,040,000 and the $145,000 is $6,895,000!<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7191599071198288307.post-70549577131163110282012-01-08T01:10:21.701-06:002012-01-08T01:10:21.701-06:00Meet the new boss

The property belongs to the Lucky family. It looks like the project is being pushed by Police Juror Mac Plummer. Sounds like a good idea, because the people down that way need a park. BUT, because in Bossier nothing is done just because it needs to be, I wonder what are the stipulations and who gets what when the finances are finally settled. To put it bluntly, who much will the kickbacks be and who will get them?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7191599071198288307.post-18607020102279109492012-01-07T16:18:08.898-06:002012-01-07T16:18:08.898-06:00Someone can call the PR person for the school boar...Someone can call the PR person for the school board to see if closing the school is going to happen.

Happened at apartments by Rusheon, but if you live in a real house in any of the subdivisions in Bossier Parish, and you would just be wasting your effort to lock your doors before going to bed. We just don't have anything to worry about in Bossier Parish except all the naysayers complaining about everything. Bossier Parish just stands out from the rest of the United States like a shining city on a hill, and if we were not Americans, we should bow down to our police jury, school board, the sheriff's department, the police, the fire department, and other first responders. And certainly they should all be paid very good salaries, just look how prosperous all the rest of us are in Bossier Parish.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7191599071198288307.post-65826954021839503522012-01-07T07:29:28.880-06:002012-01-07T07:29:28.880-06:00Anyone hear about the shooting in Bossier yesterda...Anyone hear about the shooting in Bossier yesterday?

They have done a great job, we have a great school system, and they need to raise the taxes to build the new schools that have been proposed to make it even better. And they need to go ahead and raise the taxes to not only expand the CIC, but to develop the rest of the Cyber Research Park. If we build it, they will come. And the "they" is the best and brightest in the field of cyber research. Everybody knows what a wonderful life, free of the crime that plagues the rest of the nation, we have here in Bossier Parish, and of course the best and the brightest in the country will move here if we just provide them a place to do their research. Just look at how well we have done in the gambling industry. We in Bossier Parish have taken what other people consider a "vice" and have turned it into a glorious way of life.

That's about as old as the stain in your underwear and about as productive. There's plenty to complain about. If you would pull your head out of the dark, moist, warm place and see that there are problems in Bossier that needs to be addressed to keep the nice thing we have.

Bossier Parish should be the premier model community for the nation. There are so few Democrats here, that they simply have no power at all. We are a world-class Republican community and our good Republican officials here deserve to be the best paid officials in the world.
