The whole process of obtaining new schools and new school sites is very flawed. Based on what I've been reading, it seems the process is as follows:

1) The planning commission identifies we need more schools
2) Somehow the bond gets put onto the ballot in November and the public votes - keep in mind that nobody is going to vote NO on new schools
3) Once the bond is

As Dan points out, Paul Brown said the BOS briefing would be on "Every parcel that was evaluated." What horse manure... ....the ACTUAL briefing packet only had the 4 responders to the bogus RFP, but LCPS says they looked at all these other sites too. What a sham.

A 30-yr resident who knows many of the players noted to me today that LCPS officals aren't dishonest as has been unfairly suggested recently.

And LCPS wasting close to a million dollars studying that land that would never get Planning Commission approval. your tax dollars at work!

I'd like to know if the School Board members had full knowledge of all the details that went on with the Miller family in 2006. Dr. Adamo complained about how the public was bad to Mr. Grubb. That is a lie. That responsibility is all LCPS'. The disception and disrepect of the Miller family was even worse.

John, please do keep beating this already deah horse. Do you really want to have a final showdown with the Board of Supervisors over this stinky deal??? The School Board will be destroyed in this battle, with the final nails driven into your political coffins. Please, keep it up.

The MS10/HS10 briefing package obtained by Sarah Stinger under FOIA really doesn't look anything like what Paul Brown promised.
