Pike County's chief appraiser Jeannie Ayer Haddock did a good job I think it is par for Pike County to run off the good people that do their job well because some people want to stick their noise where they do not know what they are doing to people that are good (Like to see them do the job ) The County has lost out on this as for the fact she could pick up dead chickens if she did it would be done wright and the other chickens would give her the respect for a job well done, Hope she will like her new job and will be missed GOOD LUCK JEANNIE-----

far as land value it is the owner place to appeal if the county has the value of their land over priced- if people sit back and do not do their part they can only blame their self this is some sticking their nose where it should not be I think the county office do their best with the out of date software they work with !! If you think you could do a better job go apply !!!

Taxed to death do you think Jeannie sent you the tax from her office no way it falls back on out county commissioner they are the authority The rate is set by the state of Ga, If we had more big business come to Pike County our taxes would go down, Look at other county what they have ! We do not have anything for the youth to do or can not find anything to eat out after dark !! remember this is 2010 we are going back to the stone age!!!!

#10 Taxed to death payer on 04/08/10 at 05:26 AM

Sorry.
Too many of us called her Lets Make a Deal Jeannie. If you talked about filing an appeal, she would take you in a back room and talk with you. She gave herself a lot of authority.

You didn't read the news about the 500 signatures.

#11 C'mon on 04/08/10 at 05:30 AM

Aren't you being a little dramatic? What did our youth have to do when I was growing up? You made your own fun and it sparked creativity. Griffin and Thomaston are close by for fun. That rec dept costs us taxpayers a fortune. Use what we have or find a way to keep your kids happy without high priced toys. The rest of us seemed to make it without them.

#12 David Rawlins on 04/08/10 at 06:11 AM

I don't know that much about Jeannie so I won't comment but for you to say there is nothing for the youth to do in PC is mistaken.

You have 3-4 year old baseball on up to high school level, peewee football, soccer, band, chorus.

What else would you want? The only thing we don't have anymore that I would like to see re-opened is a public pool.

Most of the restaurants are open till 9:30 or 10. We don't have any late night bars but you can keep those in Griffin.

we also have rec cheerleading all the way up to highschool. we also have a high school competition squad and a gymnastics team. a public pool would be nice to have again and maybe we could have a swim team.

yes their is how about the children in the county that parents are having hard time do you eat or pay for your kids to do these things You have 3-4 year old baseball on up to high school level, peewee football, soccer, band, chorus.yes this is a good thing but can every child in the county play ! We need a nice park where a family can spend time away from home to give them a break, and I could go with the things may things get better for all , The one thing I want anyone who read this is look around if you see some one in need help them, any way you can.

#15 David Rawlins on 04/08/10 at 09:56 AM

Not arguing just pointing out in case you don't know:

There is a park and walking track in concord and williamson.

Also, you can go out to the soccer fields at any time and play soccer on the fields that are not in use. My family and I do this quite often.

There is access to the river on hwy 18 at the county line going west for fishing and floating on the river.

I think the problem (not your problem but everyone's) is that we want "entertainment" when we and/or our kids should learn how to entertain themselves in a healthy manner.

When I was a kid growing up in Pike County we played hide and seek all over downtown Zebulon. Rode bikes. Even rode motorcycles without destroying other peoples property and getting the police called.

Children today (mine included) have this sensory overload that makes them think they need entertainment 24/7 when really all they need is a baseball and a stick.

Marro would apply for the position of Pike County Chief Appraiser except he is afraid the interview might be live on the computers.

stop responding to anonymous posts in one breath and then spouting how important they are in another makes you look indecisive

#18 David Rawlins on 04/09/10 at 05:32 AM

Another one of the anonymous haters!

Don't you just love 'em.

I have lived in Pike County for about 15 years. My line of work has taken me into the assessor's office many times over the years. I have to say that the employees have always treated me with respect and were very helpful; and they were not aware that I was a citizen of the county. Believe me, this is not the reception you get at some offices in other counties. I have also had the chance to deal with Ms. Haddock and others in the office in the last few years on a personal basis. Again, they were polite, helpful and professional. It seems to me there are some people in this county that don't have any other mission in their lives except to stir trouble and talk ugly about others. What a sad existance for you. You have my sympathy. I wish Ms Haddock the best in her new position.
