Welcome to our new site. This has been developed by Geneva residents for Geneva residents. Increasing property taxes are a concern of every homeowner in the Tri-Cities area. While our focus is on Geneva, other local taxpayers are welcome to join and express thoughts and ideas on how to solve the pressing tax issues.

We are local taxpayers just like you. We are open to your suggestions and ideas on how this website can best serve you and the rest of the community.

As long as you follow the rules, you are welcome to post in the Forum section. Visit often as we will be adding information as it becomes available.

Nice site Bob and kudos for all of your efforts on behalf of all Geneva taxpayers.

Thanks but there have been many people that have helped, especially in getting the website designed, created, posting materials and going live. The entire website was done free of charge by a local company that had the vision to say "we owe this to the Geneva community because we are residents of the community."

We have only just begun, we will be adding new information as it breaks and can be verified. Come back often and read the FACTS and sometimes our own thoughts on what is happening to our lovely city!

I want to thank everyone that has made this page possible for Geneva residents to express their opinions. I did not register in this forum because I find my day so occupied with my daily responsibilities. I preferred others to worry about what the city of Geneva was doing with my taxes. I also like to give elected officials the benefit of the doubt, as well as my trust until they betray that trust.

Now here I am, because of two ignorant comments made by two individuals with a public position that grants them the opportunity to make a difference. One of those ignorant comments was made today by Jeff Ward on the Geneva Patch, by trying to ridicule the efforts of Mr. McQuillan, a citizen voicing the opinion of most of Geneva residents. The other one was made by school board member Matt Henry when he according to witnessed state that "it is arrogant to move into a house you can't afford" and made reference to "folks who had overextended themselves."

It is this type of ignorance, and lack of consideration for others, that brings me to this webpage today. As much as I hate getting involved in politics, the current trend in our local government is ridiculous. So I am sorry for the lenghty reply, but here I am, willing to help make a difference. Even if it is just to add my voice to the many unheard and overtaxed payers of the city of Geneva.

Thanks for joining. Our work has just begun and we need all the help we can get. Spread the word with your friends and neighbors.
