Im "PACTS" on the Cell Phone Tower Debacle

Again, thanks to The Gradebook:

A weekend interview with ...#comments

If it were me, I would ride this horse to the finish line:

There's really three issues. One is that the process that is being followed is one that is antithetical to appropriate use of school property and appropriate land use designation. What we mean by that is... whether or not a tower will or will not be put up on a school property in a residential area has been delegated all the way down to a principal. And the principal is in fact an employee of the land owner. In no other situation does an employee of the land owner get to met the determination about appropriate use.



Zoning Board? No, check with the Principal. He/she is the Cell Tower Csar.

Badges? - What badges. We don't need no stinking badges! (Mel Brooks)

Gotta love it.

Mr. Schmidt has posted yet more of his opinions about the cell tower situation on his "HillsBoard" blog.

In case he doesn't approve my comment, I am copying it here for all to read:

Boy, am I glad you didn't get elected! You'd be just another freight car on the School Board locomotive that runs blindly on its course, regardless of what lies ahead in the tracks.

You may not agree with PACT, but calling the group "crap" is disrespectful of parents' right to advocate, and NO ONE who has such a lack of respect and empathy should be charged with the representation of our citizens.

Please, by all means, continue to blog. People need to see exactly who you are and what you stand for.
