Condition: bleak
Visduh - I applaud the integrity of our new Board. Having said that I am of the opinion that there is still work to do - one has only to look at the 'REAL ESTATE SPECULATION' - the questionable auditing that failed to expose the corruption - the poor condition if many of our campuses - and a few other areas to realize this is no time to sit back and relax. The voters made a difference by voting in our new Board members - oh what a breath of fresh air they all are - and we should all give ourselves a round of applause -— January 16, 2015 9:58 p.m.
Condition: bleak
Regarding the security guards - while I questioned the fiscal responsibility of their being hired, I sure do miss the eye candy - chuckle.— January 16, 2015 9:45 p.m.
Condition: bleak
How refreshing it was as a member of the community to sit and listen to the comments of our newly elected Board members. THESE BOARD MEMBERS CARE, THEY TRULY CARE - but more importantly they are willing to speak as individuals and vote accordingly - GONE ARE THE DAYS WHEN THE PRE BOARD MEETINGS REVIEW WERE SIMPLY USED TO DICTATE TO THE BOARD THE DIRECTION THEY WOULD TAKE WHEN VOTING ON AGENDA ITEMS. One comment that has left me more than concerned - it was when Mr. Calhoun stated he was brought here to work on L street. Perhaps that is why our schools have gone from bad to worse - too much time on real estate deals. One other bad cost estimate by Mr. Calhoun was Third Avenue - he stated it was worth 7 million, yet the EXPERTS have stated 4 million is the true value.— January 16, 2015 12:39 p.m.
Horton's at the door
It is quite clear Mayor Salas may indeed find herself in need of a choker chain when attempting to handle McCann - I might also suggest a muzzle as he is like the canine in the Beggin' Strips commercial - the only difference, rather than salivating over bacon, there has never been a news camera or reporter that McCann would not step over his own mother to get to. Just my opinion.— January 15, 2015 10:31 p.m.
Horton's at the door
ALL - do what was asked of me earlier today - forward this story to all CV residents and property owners you know - make note that the recipients should read the comments as well as the story. Time for McCann and Horton to be clearly identified as 'the past' and a call to action, we want new faces willing to SERVE for the good of all.— January 10, 2015 6:05 p.m.
Horton's at the door
The actions of Ms. Bensoussan are not setting well with the community - it is pretty clear she and McCann are hell bent on business as usual vs. moving on in a new direction. Ms. Horton's perceived arrogance that evening, not a positive reflection. McCann and Ms. Bensoussan need to adjust their compasses and understand this is not about them, the old guard, or perceived prearranged deals - but rather, what is good for the whole of Chula Vista. The voters are watching - and they are a new and informed body - wonder if Ms. Bensoussan or McCann realize they are digging their own political graves. While I expected no less from McCann, Ms. Bensoussan is a different story - yes, McCann has brought the dysfunction of the old SUHSD Board with him - and it appears Ms. 'B' feels comfortable in what was driven/voted out of SUHSD.— January 10, 2015 12:12 p.m.
The vote swinger
VigilantinCV - the question I would have been yelling is who, who, who (who are ''''all'''' of those well wishes?) from what I am hearing Chula residents are still reeling from McCann's win - lots of people kicking themselves in the booty for not voting.— January 6, 2015 8:48 p.m.

His forms when he was a SUHSD Board member indicated he owns several rental properties. Perhaps he is writing his memoirs from his 'fightin' days In Iraq - reliving those days when the locals would ask him if he knew Brad Pitt or Angelina. Goodness knows we had to listen to his self promotion about his service for 4 L O N G years. I never knew passing out paper cups equated to heroism. As my Vietnam Vet daddy use to say 'enough to make a maggot gag! *. JOHN MCCANN IS THE ONLY MILITARY SERVICE PERSON I HAVE EVER KNOWN TO BRAG ON HIMSELF FOR HIS SERVICE. Oh, if only daddy were alive, I would have loved to take him to a Board meeting and listen while he set the little man straight. You know, NOONE says it better than an old salt!!!!!!— January 6, 2015 8:42 p.m.

Has running for political office become soooo much about the financial backers that regular folk - you know the ones simply interest in 'serving' see the task as an effort in futility? You see, I am all about the knock on the door - where I, as John Q Public nobody, can ask the candidate the questions I am interested in and want hear those answers face to face. When was the last time you had a candidate knock at your door? For me it was Mr. Ruiz, new Chula School Board Member and Paula Hall SUHSD Board member.— January 5, 2015 2:30 p.m.
Hillary’s burgeoning Bersin bump
Bursin + Arne Duncan = USELESS or in Common Core Terms Take Alan Bursin, ADD Arne Duncan - THE RESULT - useless.— December 14, 2014 1:04 p.m.
