We hope that this website will prevent any others from making the same mistake that we did in moving anywhere near the town of Lexington. Lexington is a predatory, parasitic town with no regard for the people who live in or around the town. The Town leaders waste excessive amounts of tax dollars while pursuing a practice of Forcefully Annexing surrounding neighborhoods to pay for their arrogantly imperial rule and lack of foresight. The town spreads out, leaving the wreckage of past mistakes like unbandaged wounds. Entire neighborhoods are ignored, littered and unsafe. The people have given up on attending town meetings because, as is common knowledge, the people of Lexington and Davidson County have no voice or vote on any issue. The town is run as a dictatorship, with the same few people making the decisions and dominating the political machine. There is no freedom, no Constitutional Government, no respect for citizens. It is filled with dilapidated buildings and litter that the town refuses to clean up, the crime and taxes are high and the rates for services continue to rise. Lexington is no place to raise a family, buy a home or start a business. There is NO leadership, NO budgeting, and the people here have NO choice in how the City is run because there is NO vote on any issue. The only areas within the City limits that receive prompt, effective service in any way are the areas where the Town Councilmen and political supporters live. Forced annexation is a policy akin to trashing your own backyard, refusing to clean it up and then taking your neighbors yard that he has kept clean….and then makling him pay for the new fence that you put up!
Our City is run so that the wishes, desires, request and concerns of citizens are inconsequential to the Town Council and planners. They truly believe that they are the only ones who matter, and that their opinions are the only ones that count. Citizens are there to work for them, and they are there to tell citizens how to live. It may sound archaic to the “progressive” elitist, but it was intended to be the other way around….
