Plus, our property tax is lower, sales tax is about the same, fuel is much cheaper, government is less intrusive but they seem to be eager to change that. Four years ago we would not have needed any permits to build here. Not now. With more Californians escaping to AZ, I'm afraid they are bringing their nanny-state culture with them. We must resist them! Maybe a border fence.

ETA: My wife just told me that the $280 may include "catch-up" payments since the first of the year.
