Also Rather Unsuitable

First, see

Now see this latest notice of public hearings:

The property that is the subject of this hearing is also under or right next to the major power line.  It will be interesting to see if first the Planning and Zoning Commission and then the City of Fredericksburg decide it's okay to put the elderly and infirm so close to an electric line that it becomes a health hazard... but then again, this is the same town and area that were written about in

and

so it may well be that the real intent is to keep medical and long-term care costs down by getting rid of the residents.

Finally, the property that is the subject of these upcoming hearings is almost directly across from the land that is the subject of

Brown Notices

Continuing my series on property in my neighborhood,...

As documented here, at the same time my land was being rezoned (see "Still Waiting", posted 8/1/10), property bordering mine to the northwest was also suddenly annexed and rezoned. This other property had belonged to one of the Jimmy/James Browns discussed earlier (see "Another Jimmy Brown?", posted 6/21/10) previously. Now in these notices, it was listed as being owned by a partnership whose name was the same as Brown's mother's maiden name.

These notices were all published in the Fredericksburg Standard-Radio Post on July 18, 2007. One of the Jimmy Browns died suddenly on 2/27/08 as discussed in my previous Brown post mentioned above and also in "Chronologic Order", posted 8/2/10.

At this point, you might want to go back and read the posts about Boot Ranch.

Lost And Found

Instead of being confined to the classifieds as usual, the "Lost And Found"s seemed to be scattered all over our local newspaper today.

First, one of the missing persons I've written about before was identified as being the body of a white male that was found in eastern Gillespie County at an unidentified location by an unidentified person last Sunday. Trey Allen Noah, 20, of Kendall County had been missing since last November. The Gillespie County Sheriff, a close friend of my ex-husband's, is insisting on heading the investigation and is not giving out any information, which is frankly "business as usual" around here in suspicious death cases and does not bode well as far as the victim's family receiving any kind of real closure or justice. (This is the same sheriff who, in his previous job as a state game warden, happened to find a number of other victims of suspicious deaths.)

Secondly, I spotted a public notice of a zoning change by the city that was hidden at the bottom of a page in the sports section (amid advertisements) rather than being published in the classifieds section with the other public notices as is normal. Sure enough, the property whose zoning has been changed is described only vaguely, and there were no previous notices published previously announcing any hearings on this change. From the little stated in the notice, I have no idea where this property is or what's really going on, other than that the zoning of it was changed from residential to "public facility".
