Fire fee opponents: Pay bills under protest




In the photos, from the top: Legislative aides Brenda Haynes (left) and Ashley Adishian prepare a sign to display; Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association legislative director Davie Wolfe speaks to reporters; and former state Sen. Doug LaMalfa shows a protest petition to a reporter.

Wolfe, LaMalfa and Assemblyman Jim Nielsen held a press conference today to discuss next steps on the controversial fire fees that are going out to rural landowners in the north state this month. They say property owners should pay their bills even though the fees are being challenged in court, so they don't incur fines.

You can find my complete story here. Affected residents are encouraged to attend a meeting with Wolfe and others at the Redding library, 1100 Parkview Ave., tonight beginning at 6:30 p.m.
