Don't mess with Texas' labor pool
shirleyberan - Hello my FRIEND - the reason I add that in is a self protection. After having a PI hired to investigate me and with others in the community who received cease and desist letters - I have been advised to protect myself - as, my words are simply my opinion. *****while I am more than confident the current Sup nor Board would never have done such a thing - there are others, who, well, I am not so sure of.— January 30, 2015 2:02 p.m.
Don't mess with Texas' labor pool
johndewey - I would offer up the following a good Super at SUHSD would be worth his/her weight in gold. What we need to do at SUHSD is have certain outside auditors come in and allow them to pull what they want to audit - additionally we need to down size District staff and get rid of the dead weight and those who practice to deceive the public. As a start a REAL audit of Prop O with a comparison of Montgomery Project 2 to National City Middle Project 2, which is in the works* Auditors should then look at the Mello, which they will be soon* Keyser Marston was able to prove, as an independent consultant that we were being sold a bill of goods by Tom Calhoun regarding property values - so who is to know what other conflicting data we have been given.* While I agree with many aspects of your statement, SUHSD is a rare bird, one that has been drained due to the alleged corruption and back room deals. Let's clean the District up, then we can focus on more teachers and rewarding the GOOD Administrators. *all since our Board was elected. As always just my opinion— January 29, 2015 7:58 p.m.

It is more than rewarding to see, in person, a Board conduct business in a transparent manner. It is what the community has been calling for for many years. It appears the days of brokered deals behind closed doors has finally come to an end, all I can say is THANK GOD!!!!!!!— January 29, 2015 1:43 p.m.

A lesson in racism?
Don Bauder - the key to this situation is in fact the question you raised - 'in what context was it used' - but,,,, as I think out loud here - I doubt Sgt. Scott would have raised it as a concern if it were being shown in the outrageously poor taste that it is. With so many good police personnel on the force - unfortunately, what we have here is a few bad apples spoiling the whole bunch - or at least I hope it is a few.— January 22, 2015 10:22 p.m.
Okay…we'll take Steve
If McCann were to loose his seat due to the recount I would highly recommend having a County Mental Health ambulance parked outside Councils chambers. As I believe he will come unglued!!! just my opinion.— January 22, 2015 7:30 p.m.

As I read the line that refers to 'products that help with erectile dysfunction' I couldn't help but think - WHEN ARE THEY GOING TO COME UP WITH A PILL THAT CORRECTS POLITICAL DYSFUNCTION???????????— January 21, 2015 11 a.m.

An item that was mentioned at last weeks Bond Oversight Committee was the potential to float a new tax on the west side. Let me be clear - under the current state of the Facilities Dept. in this District I simply could not, in good faith, support such a plan. I believe we should all pay our fair share, however with the mismanagement and smoke blowing that I have seen and continue to see - my vote would be NO. Schools built using outdated plans, Change Orders, deterioration of schools due to lack of maintenance, finger pointing (not my fault, it is his/hers), lack of respect of the worker bees towards those that are in charge - I could go on and on. Let me offer a reference that warrants my concerns - the 2007 Prop O Audit that ITEMIZES the work that was suppose to be done with our Prop O monies - a Master Plan done and presented to the community - GIVE US NEW TAXES THIS IS WHAT WE WILL DO - well the old Management Company failed us and the current manageMENT has and is failing us. Under the intial Master Plan Deferred Maintenance was SUPPOSE to a priority, the fire alarms were suppose to be a PRIOROTY - failure to execute. What has the management of this department done - well he hired a Consultant at the cost of 390k even though the Board had initially approved 300k - but alas, this to has been a continuing major issue - the NEVER ENDING CHANGE ORDERS - and guess what folks that 390k has the potential to grow even larger. SlickEddy - yes, I have been nominated as public enemy number 1 by some. Whining that 'I done know what I did to her, but she just doesn't like me' - 'she does not know what she is talking about'. Well,,,,,,,, there is big difference between the words like and trust AND trust me anniej does not speak of what she has not researched and she ALWAYS has documentation to support.— January 18, 2015 9:17 a.m.

Ken Harrison - Sweetwater is trying to GET OUT of the real estate business that Ed Brand got us into back in 05. If you are looking for an interesting but nauseating read I would suggest you read some of Ms. Luzzaro's past stories on this subject - but allow me to warn you after researching how millions upon millions have been thrown away you will be infuriated. Our new Board is now challenged with the task of getting us out of the mess.— January 17, 2015 7:37 a.m.

Ms. Luzzaro - what the community does not understand is just HOW MANY TIMES SUHSD HAS ENTITLED L STREET AND OTHER PROPERTIES. I have the downloaded the proof of each approval by our past Boards and Supers. MILLIONS UPON MILLIONS WASTED - and Calhoun was prepared to waste even more with his ridiculously high opinion of our properties values. Wondering about all of those documents you refer to - if you put yours and the antagonists together we could probably cover the Coronado Bridge AND STILL HAVE PAPERWORK LEFT OVER.— January 16, 2015 10:11 p.m.
