1st Amend Coalition sues for emails. We all know the roadblocks that the District has put up in responding to many Public Record Requests. Finally the FAC took action in seeking emails against the City of Sacramento and one of its committees. Now if we could just get the FAC to do the same in MDUSD, perhaps the coverups would stop. http://blogs.sacbee.com/city-beat/CFAClawsuit.pdf

Ah, yes. 14.10–putting that $100K price tag on it was the deciding factor so far. In other words, they will have to report on very very little each month, since they break all those contracts and purchases down into smaller bits and pieces and bring them back for multiple amended cost increases.

At least they are willing to actually consider some accountability.

Since this Williams report is for last quarter, maybe we can impress on Mount and others the importance of filing complaints now, and in a timely manner. If they only complain at board meetings, they will accomplish nothing. They must put issues in writing and send them out of, and above the district for any assistance and for a permanent record.

That student said she was about to file a Williams complaint about no teacher in her French class, not the inadequate access to restrooms.

@G, remember the female student that spoke, I think at last meeting, about how she was about to prepare a Williams complaint about the restrooms.

All these complaints about lack of open/working restrooms at Mount, and yet on down the Agenda comes the completely zero issue Williams report on facility maintenance.

I’m pretty sure KVHS did not broadcast the last couple of regular meetings. Does anyone know if they will tonight?

Unfortunately, my last video is longer than 10 minutes and I didn’t realize that exceeds the YouTube limit, so I can’t upload it right now. I’ll see if I can shorten it tomorrow.
