Maybe those who run the Sequoia Union High School District should simply put new taxes on autopilot. That’s the implication from their recent look at a fourth construction bond measure in less than a decade. Three are already on the books and being paid for by the taxpayers. Now, the district’s trustees are examining a fourth. Why? Because the first three can’t finish the job the way the board members want. Where does it all end? At no time does the district, when presenting a bond to the public for approval, come clean. It does not state that, if this new measure passes, we may well return to you and ask for more. And more again. It doesn’t work that way. Instead, a bond is given the OK, construction begins and, oops, more money is needed. At some point, someone in authority needs to stand up and say, “Whoa. This is wrong. Let’s spend within our means. Our taxpayers aren’t a bottomless well of cash. We aren’t governing in good faith.” Don’t hold your breath.
