]]> Comment on Money Matters: Estate Planning Checklist for Everyone by Barry Seltzer http://carycitizen.com/2012/02/21/money-matters-estate-planning-checklist-for-everyone/#comment-3979 Barry Seltzer Wed, 22 Feb 2012 12:00:11 +0000 http://carycitizen.com/?p=35235#comment-3979 The statistics underscore an extremely sad situation permeating our society for anyone who loves their family and their companion animals. Your article underscores the need for planning in advance regarding one’s estate and also serves a useful purpose; to highlight for the general public the need and importance of pre-planning for one's family and including ones pets in their estate planning. There are a multitude of resources available and more being put in place on a regular basis that are easily accessed by any interested party. Companion animal owners should be aware of the importance of including their pets in their estate plan and planning ahead for their family. There are many questions raised when planning that bear discussion and sometimes there are no easy answers. To secure the widest distribution of this transformative information as possible is in our opinion praiseworthy and of value to everyone concerned with their families and their companion animals. We hope as many people as possible will be encouraged to deal with this type of planning rather than leave it to others and the courts when they no longer can.

]]> Comment on Harold’s Blog: Land in Chatham County by Karl Thor http://carycitizen.com/2012/01/30/harolds-blog-land-in-chatham-county/#comment-3961 Karl Thor Tue, 21 Feb 2012 14:49:34 +0000 http://carycitizen.com/?p=34287#comment-3961 Mayor, You said: "Development in this area is up to the property owners and not the Town of Cary." It is up to the town of Cary how the land is developed. If we do not provide sewage, the development is strategically restricted. There is no law saying that Cary has to increase our taxes to pay for services (waste collection, police, fire, permit inspectios) in remote areas nor does it say we need to pollute our drinking water source, decrease water supply, and increase our traffic so that a landowner can make an exorbitant profit based on CARY"S tax dollars. You are correct in that we do need a plan for our sensitive and expensive water supply. So please retrict the plan to 1 unit per 5 acre, eliminate the industrial/commercial node, require "Low Impact Development" management practices. Thanks for your service. Karl Thor Mayor,
