    For anyone reading this or who doesn’t know this is a huge loophole in Texas and I don’t know about other states but for sure in Texas. You’ve got people sitting on multimillion dollar land acreages and they pay nothing in taxes. Now I don’t think we should be taking peoples land away, but I also don’t think you should be able to just hold onto all the land in Texas and not pay any taxes. You need to be taxed at a significantly higher rate for unused land. You gotta learn how to share people.

      I disagree with a discriminatory tax rate for "unused land". We need to maintain open forests as they are vital to air quality, animal habitats, and to keep people spread out. If you don't like Texas you can move back to California where you most likely came from spewing the nonsense you're spewing

" Guess that was too impress thee EPA". That was recorded by my longtime good friend and nieghbor from his roof top over the temporary 6ft high blind the contractor or whoever put up while digging the trench. I saw the recorded video and called the local water conservation commision, he arrived next morning, properly dressed too impress, "Cowboy hat, bolo tie and boots with credentials". Showed him the video, took him outside to my friends 127ft deep water well 80 to a 100ft from that pitt. And was told we had too have been trespassing to get those video's. Till we again showed him the over head footage angle of recording. Then he left with; it's Private property, the land owner can allow what ever he choose's on his or her own property.

    Doesn’t any of this surprise me, considering what it cost to dispose of old tires. Put it this way. Let’s say the county dump ground charges $5 dollars a tire just to recycle one used tire with no rim. Now I do not know what Tarrant County charges to dispose of a tire. But at $5 dollars a tire for say 50,000 tires, (again not knowing the exact amount of tires) that comes out to $250,000 dollars so a quarter million in clean up fee’s that the land owner either does not want to pay or cannot pay. I’m going with the former, as they probably didn’t want to pay $20 for 4 tires, each time they dumped.
