Tax Message from the PBRLA President

Gary E. Smith today posted the following message on the PNJ's Pensacola Beach message/chat board:

At yesterday’s meeting at Bamboo Willie’s, a litigation group was formed to contest taxation on beach property. Here are the highlights:

* The law firm selected is Shell, Fleming, Davis and Menge.
* The INITIAL fee is $200 per tax bill.
* The suit will be multi-plaintiff, NOT CLASS ACTION

If you wish to be included as a plaintiff, deliver or mail a check for $200, a copy of your current lease, assignment, master lease (if you have one) and tax bill, to:
The Visitor Information Center
735 Pensacola Beach Blvd.
Pensacola Beach, Fla. 32561

Make checks payable to the Pensacola Beach Tax Suit Trust Fund. ASAP. TIME IS SHORT.

The next meeting of persons participating or interested in participating will be at Bamboo Willie’s at 6:00pm on Thursday.
Spread the word as best you can. Tell your friends and neighbors and out of state owners.

lets see how fast 200 dollars turns into 2000 dollars a piece.

I think the first "anonymous" comment above is right on. The $200 was promised as required to "get your name on the lawsuit". But what about later, if I don't continue to cough up the almost inevitable additional buckeroos? Will I be dropped from the suit??
