To the editor:

I have duly offered my services at no cost to demonstrate how to get the most bang for the buck in building the new Animal Shelter. I have heard nothing back from the county. This is actually a stepping stone or "demonstration" if I may say, to illustrate how to also build a school building for about half the cost of what we are paying. 

Almost all of our property tax money goes to build new schools. Why wouldn't we investigate new ideas? 

This type of building has survived with no maintenance on the outside since some of them were built before WWI. You can double the size of these buildings at minimal cost in a matter of weeks when the need for more space is required. The savings on the Animal Shelter could be used for Solar Electric, eliminating electric bills.

Standing by.....
