How did they not sign for the notice? That’s not a thing. If you send by certified mail, someone will have to pick it up from the post office even if they aren’t there at the property when the mailman tries to deliver it

The City has known about these deficiencies in the facility for years. Why would they not stagger the renovations over those years in order to stay on compliance with the league, and reduce the upfront costs? Diamond District redevelopment was clearly going to take a long time, why not keep the league happy in the mean time

It’s a multibillion dollar project that will completely transform a sizable chunk of the city for generations and you “despise how much combined effort that stupid diamond sucks up from public discourse” … ? Do you know the whole project is so much more than just the Diamond but it totally hinges on there actually being a new Diamond? Why do you think this shouldn’t be discussed at length?

Nothing and no one obligates counties or cities to charge you the maximum amount in taxes that they can legally get away with charging. Why any private citizen reflexively defends the government’s right to screw people over is beyond me. OP you are right, it’s morally bankrupt. In my opinion they should be obligated to buy your house at the value they quote it at if you would choose that over paying bloated tax increases.
