SAN BENE GETS OWN COUNTY TAX OFFICE DRIVE-THRU LANES

The grand opening of the new drive-thru tax lanes, located at 199 S. Sam Houston Blvd., happened on Friday, June 25.

At the event Tony Yzaguirre, the Cameron County Tax Assessor-Collector presented the renovated building in front of a crowd filled with city, county, and state officials.

n attendance was State Sen. Eddie Lucio Jr., who praised all those who helped move the project forward.

“This today shows how much Cameron County cares about the people of this area of the county, and for anyone who comes and pays their taxes here,” Lucio Jr. said.
Yzaguirre also commended San Benito realtor, Velma De Los Santos, for helping him purchase the buildings.

“Because of her, we were able to accomplish what we did. She was very instrumental in us purchasing the property,” Yzaguirre said.

De Los Santos received an award from the county for her aid presented by Yzaguirre.

San Benito Commissioner, Rene Garcia, explained that this building is a start in revitalizing the city’s downtown area.
“It’s a shot in the arm to revitalize downtown San Benito,” Garcia said. “I’m hoping that with the addition of the Cameron County Tax-Assessor’s drive-thru and the main building to be converted into some type of office, it will boost activity downtown and result in more people coming downtown and maybe more businesses opening up.”

Cameron County Judge Eddie Trevino Jr. also expressed that the project was intended to help San Benito’s downtown area.

“The reason we wanted to do this…was to help our partners in San Benito inject a little bit of economic life and vibrance into its downtown,” Trevino Jr. said.

If it's going to be so convenient, why put the red light in the lanes?

Eddie Trevino the Troll...there is NO economic life in San Benny...it’s one huge fucking barrio where everyone has a Lone Star card. San Benny is a town that you drive around and not through. Any questions little man?!

Luico and Yzaguirre are celebrating like they did us a grand favor! They build it to collect unnecessary taxes from the citizens of Cameron county! For example, We all shouldn't even be paying property and school taxes. Hopefully one day Texas separate from the United States, and becomes it's own country!

Nothing can revitalize San Benito. It is dead. Nowheresville.

If Texas became its own country, you would be taxed even more, you insipid idiot!

And it would likely be attacked by Mexico and revert to that nation.

ja ja ja

Why did Trevino loan his campaign $70,000 to run for county judge if the people love him so much seems like they would love to fund his campaign!! Oh yea and paying a phone banking woman from Hidalgo County thousands but phone banking people in Brown Town just get hundreds for the same thing. LOOK AT HIS CAMPAIGN EXPENSE FORMS IF YOU THINK HE LOVES CAMERON COUNTY!!!!!

LOCAL BLOGGER CLAIMS THAT 5-10% OF ALL CURRENT COVID DEATHS ARE FROM PEOPLE WHO WERE FULLY VACCINATED (BV 7/6)

Interesting article as self-portraited journalist claims that 5-10% of all current COVID deaths are from people who are fully vaccinated. After reading such article I looked for the source of information used by the local blogger in making such claim but could not find it in his blog. Perhaps I did not look carefully or it could be that there is no such source to such claim. Could it be one of many big lies bring published in our nation's media publications?

Juan, show us who in the city of Brownsville is getting a car allowance. Management and most directors are "working " from home since early last year. We taxpayers shouldn't be subsidizing car payments for these bozos. The city should issue city units instead to everyone getting a car allowance and save taxpayers funds.

@2:50 No need to be a dickhead about it! I guess you're the type of prick that just like bending over and getting screw from behind! México can't even win the war against the cartel and can barely run their own country. And you think they are going to add more problems by attacking Texas! You must be retarded or losing your mind, just like your hero Joe "Note Cards" Biden! You say we would pay more taxes! What a dimwit you are! I guess you are enjoying the high gas and food prices this administration has caused! Things will get worst with this worthless senile cheater as president! Texas needs to fight for independence from this brain dead moron! Viva Texas! Si Se Puede!
