That boy, Anthony, needs to be planted face down so he can see where he's going.....sigh....

First you tell employees where they can and can not live. Then you dissolve the Board of Education but you want to run the new one. What's next, you coing to dictate what color my car should be? It is a money grab you ediot. If this happens I will not spend a single penny inside the city limits during my 2 days of visiting. How about this, I think if you live in the city and decide to pass through the county, you can deposit 50 cents into one of our toll roads. You see, we too worry about our clean air. All in favor say AAAhhhhh.

This would be a nail in Memphis's coffin.They cant even run the schools with dividing this town.

That boy, ford, belongs in a nursing home.....what an idiot,if it wasn't for the brain-power from the workers commuting from Desoto & Tipton County Memphis woulod die slowly on the vine....WORD!

Here's a solution to the Fords and other politicians who want to just keep taking and taking. I propose that ANYONE and EVERYONE affected by this "proposed" inspection, simply say NO! They can not arrest the entire tri-state area. Sometimes it takes a revolution to solve the tyrannic acts of a government. The United States of America is not currently the colonies of Britian for the exact type of "taxation without representation". Edmund Ford represents ONE person, HIMSELF. So again I say, EVERYONE, stand together and refuse to accept this and any other outrageous tax or fee these corrupt Memphis politicians try to impose. WE must impose our will, or they impose theirs upon us. Stand as one and refuse to bend!!!

Way to go Memphis Politicians. Manage what you have instead of trying to get more. Your latest 2 million that you want to go to the Chiska hotel for renovation of a private building. Lets see, apartments and retail space. Hmmmmm. Remember Peabody Place?? Lots of retail space there. How bout those unsold condos in South Downtown. You keep saying you need more money coming in. You really need to manage what you already have coming in.

Lets see, Memphis is already taking more from Shelby County taxes and services than what they pay in, so its only fair that Memphians increase their taxes to cover what they actually use. Good job Memphis, keep this up and get ready for the toll roads coming into the suburbs to keep you people out.

Way to try to alienate yourselves once again Memphis. There is no way the city can afford the financial impact this will cause. How much are all of these "license plate trackers", the database to store the information and the manpower to monitor said database going to cost the city? Is the city going to have to hire more law enforcement just to issue citations to the thousands of people who refuse to go along with this ridiculous idea? Keep spending a dollar to save a dime....this could be such a great city if it didn't have the lunatics running the asylum.....that's why I moved.

So for the Memphians that are required to have vehicle inspections in order to get their tags was the fee not included? Wouldn't we be charged twice for this service? What if I am traveling to Memphis in a personal vehicle of another state for more than a week, would I be required to pay for inspection? This has to be a joke.....just put up tolls where each highway or interstate meets and make your money that way. There has to be better ideas than this.

Go ahead Memphis city leaders, give industry and business another reason to leave. Keep adding laws that hurt your city instead of enforcing the ones that help it.
