The national housing market showed some signs of life in June with contract signings for homes up 5 percent from the month before — the largest gain in more than three years, according to the National Association of Realtors.Pending home sales are still 8.6 percent below the pace seen in June 2006. But pending sales did jump in all four regions with the West seeing the biggest increase at 8.6 percent, a report released Wednesday by the association shows.The group’s senior economist, Lawrence Yun, said in a statement that the rise is encouraging, but "it is too early to say if home sales already passed bottom."Also in June, pending sales rose 3.1 percent in the Northeast, 4.7 percent in the South and 3.5 percent in the Midwest.

Please understand that just because I happen to live in a Non-contiguous, Un-Incorporated county islands does not mean I am looking for a hand out. I for one, have never had an issue paying through taxation or subscription for Fire & Emergency Services.
As a native of Arizona, I have always lived in an annexed city and paid my taxes. However, December of 2003 I purchased a home that just happened to be in one of the non-contiguous, un-incorporated county islands of Tempe; where there are no Fire or Emergency services available, nor have I been offered these services through private or public agencies.
It has, and I “QUOTE”, never been an issue of not wanting to pay for these services.
As of September 19, 2007; “HB 2780’s Non-contiguous, Un-incorporated County Island Fire Districts:will begin the long & arduous process of establishing possible districts for qualifying properties…. If successful, this will allow districts to be formed that meet the qualifications set by HB 2780. It will require a minimum approval of qualifying parties along with other terms & conditions for each of the Fire Districts
Please contact INFO@F-E-D-U-P.com or your Board of Supervisors for more information about upcoming public meetings & informative information about HB 2780 & the petitions that will be circulated after 9/19/2007.
If you live in one of these Non-contiguous, Un-incorporated County Islands; that DO NOT HAVE, AND HAVE NOT BEEN OFFERED Fire or Emergency services by a public or private agency, I suggest you visit http://www.F-E-D-U-P.com to review HB-2780.
If you would like to stay updated on this very important matter, be sure to contact me at INFO@F-E-D-U-P.com. Remember you can also contact the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors Office for more information about the issues of HB 2780’s Fire Districts.
Progress is a wonderful thing & our great State of Arizona is proof of that, but it does take time, patience & understanding by all involved.
