The 1972 lease, as referenced above between the Village of Carrollton and the Veteran's Club, was a thirty-year lease that automatically renews in ten-year intervals unless both parties agree in writing to relinquish it. The lease includes three separate tracts of land. In 1999 the Veteran’s Club agreed to relinquish only the portion of land known as the park, due to the Village’s desires to install new playground equipment. Said lease is still valid on the other tracts of land, as it was automatically renewed in 2002. These intelligent and respected patriotic business men would not have agreed to build their structure, valued at then $250,000 plus, on property that did not permit the Club to have an automatic renewable lease.

If my memory serves me correctly, the Board of Education sold the Kilgore school for $1.00, however I cannot remember who they sold it to. Was it the Fire Dept.?

The Loudon Township Trustees are a public entity, thus it was legal. The Vets Club is not a public entity but a private club, so the school cannot by LAW sell it to them or they would have. I do wish people would get it out of their head that the school is the bad guy in all this. They can only do what the law allows them to do.
Come on

The school has gave itself the bad guy reputation. Ask just about anyone in this County and they will tell you things the school has done but should of done differently. If Carroll Countians would have passed the levy to build the School of tomorrow, the school wouldnt be doing have of the stuff they are. Its all out of spite, atleast thats the way it seems. Apparently, Hopefully, there is a way the Veterans who worked so hard and gave so much money to build it can get what is thiers, and always has been thiers back, and claim yet another VICTORY over a powerful foe.

Usually, the only ones that have gripes about the school are those that have always had the feeling that the rules are made for others and not for them. This situation is similar. It is time that the people of this school district realized that the school board can only do what the law allows them to do. And as with any issue it depends upon what side you are on if things are done correctly or not!!!!!!

Daily Horoscope for December 31

Aquarius

The more you want to control someone, or someone wants to control you, the more difficult life will be today. It's a Full Moon and a lunar eclipse, so the last thing you should do now is to act as though you own this person, or tell them what to do, because it will be an instant recipe for rebellion and trouble. Mars is retro in your house of significant others and open enemies after all. If you don't want to spoil the evening's celebrations you'll have to make compromises, and hope that this other person will do the same. Don't let the fuss stop you having a very happy New Year's Eve.
