FLL,

I agree but they should not single out the people who have RR tracks in their front yard. It's simply not worth as much as a piece of property that has no tracks in their yard. For one you can't get a beach out of it. Our lease about 5 years ago was about $300 and now it's $1300 for 50 feet of frontage. They need to stop singling out the RR waterfront leasers for their tax money. They need to spread this out and make it affordable, tax boaters and other tourists. They already get a rediculous amount of money through real estate taxes and all us out-of-staters don't use nearly any of the services that the taxes go toward, such as school systems. I'd say they should just sell us the land with right of way access, like the people on rt. 3 in winnesquam have.
