A Long Way to Go

I checked the county property records this morning to see just how many resident homeowners might be in the WVID.  Results would indicate it will be years before we get to the 500 freeholders required to consider a referendum question for an elected WVID supervisor.
   329  Homes having private ownership
   180  Homes that are NOT homesteaded
     19  Homes with other than homesteaded exemptions
   130  Homes that are homesteaded properties

Assuming husband and wife or other legal 2 person ownership per homestead property, that only gives an estimated 260 qualified freeholders currently owning property within the district.  We would need a minimum of 500 to attempt a referendum question on the ballot.
