Oh crud. Where we live in #AppalachianOhio you don't have to get "building permits. #Ohio Yesterday, I found out that you are supposed to self-report to the county auditor (tax dept) any "improvements" over $2000 within 60 days of starting or they hit you hard when they do the property reevaluations or, if they find out about it, and our Republican county is big on hitting people hard. I am self-reporting today to reduce any penalties, if any. "Upon the discovery of a building or improvement that has been constructed but of which the county auditor has not been notified as required by this section, the county auditor shall appraise it and place it upon the tax list and duplicate at its taxable value, together with a penalty equal to fifty per cent of the amount of taxes that would have been charged against the building or improvement from the date of construction to the date of discovery had the county auditor been notified of its construction as required by this section." If we end up in tax court, everybody on the fediverse knows we started our improvements with the intent of replacing the flat roof, #PaulsRoof, (which should be exempt from reporting) then at some point, decided to turn the carport into a health room after the bad winter prevented Penny from going to elective cardiac rehab like she did three times per week for over a year after her heart attack. :ohio2: Section 5713.17 | Duty to notify county auditor of improvement costing over $2,000 - penalty - examination of buildings. Ohio Revised Code/Title 57 Taxation/Chapter 5713 Assessing Real Estate https://codes.ohio.gov/ohio-revised-code/section-5713.17

7/ Jury sides with rapper Afroman in Adams County, #AppalachianOhio #ohio trial. Can't wait for the new music. So proud of my neighbors. Everybody get a piece of Lemon Pound Cake and celebrate. Afroman, on the stand, "All of this is their fault," Foreman said on Tuesday. "If they hadn't wrongly raided my house, there would be no lawsuit, I would not know their names, they wouldn't be on my home surveillance system, and there would be no songs ... my money would still be intact." https://www.wcpo.com/news/local-news/afromans-defense-prepares-to-present-their-side-during-day-3-of-civil-trail #Afroman .

It's 80F in #AppalachianOhio and sun is out. Partly cloudy. Supposed to storm later but the sun was a surprise.

All the old yards that used to be filled with MAGAscape, which went away for a long time after 2020 election and Jan 6, and didn't come back in 2024, have now been remade with Red White And Blue. I guess they have moved on to Iran Warscape. Still, like it was post Jan 6, Trump is not being featured in the latest political landscaping choices here in my area in deep red #AppalachianOhio

RE: https://vis.social/@infobeautiful/116109430224379547 UGH. They are in the first stages of building a 1.3 gigawatt data center around 8 miles away from me that will use 11.4 million megawatt hours annually. That's 31 times the amount of electricity my rural #AppalachianOhio county uses in a year.

Our little #AppalachianOhio village has had its annual winter water main break on Main Street. It's a winter right of passage ... the most normal thing that has happened #weather wise in the past two weeks. lol.

RE: https://oldfriends.live/@paul/115445123478520939 Small #AppalachianOhio Village Life: A foot of snow, and below zero F temps, and the only restaurant in town, the Dreamy Whip, is still opening every day. LOL. The mail hasn't even ran this week, but they are open for business. #Ohio #Weather #WX #OHwx
