County Committee upholds their decision
After two tense hours in closed session, the County Committee on School District Organization announced Wednesday night that no action had been taken on the issue to possiby change their decision regarding the June 2010 election. No action means that their original decision for the June election stands.
This was a huge relief to the many parents that had signed the petition and are counting on that change to be in place for the November 2010 election of three CUSD trustees.
We must now await the next move from the Trustees who appear woefully out of touch with the will and desire of their constituents. After over-whelming support for a waiver that would save ALL of the election costs and the many people who signed the petition, they are still hell-bent on delaying this change.
Siting every excuse they can come up with, the bottom line remains that they ran on a platform of change and reform, supported “by trustee” elections and promised to make the district better. The over-whelming support for this change only solidifies that and gives them more than enough authority to apply for the waiver, hire the demographer, and have it all nicely taken care of long before the November 2010 election.
Now trustees, do the right thing!
