Olympic committee to palm off training center?

Olympic committee to palm off training center?
And where is the community with all of its concerns and discontent? MIA— August 17, 2014 7:26 a.m.

JmBrickley - while you know 'I love ya' - allow me to remind you of those Board members that lived on the east side of the 805 who pilfered the Mello's - Jim Cartmill, John McCann, and Arlie Ricasa. While Lopez lives east of what many call the great divide she voted against and questioned the Mello borrowing. And what of THEIR choices of superintendent? Is 805 the marker? All of this east vs west side nonsense reminds me of the old days and all of the talk about 'south' of Main Street, then it was 'south' of L street and 'west' of Broadway. And here I thought we were just plain old neighbors.— August 17, 2014 12:40 a.m.

Eastlaker - lets see the home for the District office was 1- suppose to be on Third Avenue, that is why we traded our land where the Veterans home is now located 2- then it was Third Avenue 3- then when 'the gandara' came to town he used our money for drive by appraisals for property on the Mile of Cars ( with Board approval ) 4- now it is Harold Place Since, the monies are to be used for 'facilities' - I have a novel idea, let's remember our schools are facilities and spend the money on improvements on them - And,,,,,, who was on our Board the majority of the time ALL OF THIS WAS GOING ON- why none other than Jim Cartmill and Arlie Ricasa— August 17, 2014 12:30 a.m.

Thank You to the candidates who were able to attend the Special Meeting and Closed Session this morning into this afternoon. It was nice to get to know you and hear your views.— August 14, 2014 4:19 p.m.

Johndewey - there are many questions that need to be answered by the candidates. I am concerned that the knowledge base for some/several of the candidates will be based on info shared from friends like John McCann and Ed Brand. To those candidates that are new to the issues, and new to the comments of anniej, I am a pretty direct person - a question I have been dying to ask is WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN FOR THE PAST 5 YEARS? Now this is not directed to the few of you who have attended Board meetings and spoken out, but for the other candidates. This time around the community must do a better job than they have done in the past. We must truly vet our candidates - on ALL OF THE MAIN ISSUES. No longer should we simplify by voting Party or PAC - we MUST EACH do our own homework and MUST vote on the integrity and abilities of each person running in our individual areas. Ask yourselves WHO IS MY CHOICE REALLY, DO I REALLY KNOW?— August 13, 2014 9:56 p.m.

REMINDER - meeting at the District TOMORROW 10:00 am to discuss 'facilities' code for PROPERTIES. HOPEFULLY AS MANY CANDIDATES AS POSSIBLE WILL ATTEND - however, it is 'short' notice, and no doubt being held in the morning in hopes that many community members (who are out working to pay the increased Mello's) will not be there to hold Mr. McCann accountable. And what of Tom Calhoun, he has been negotiating this mess, he and Ed Brand.— August 13, 2014 5:29 p.m.

Mr. Justino Martinez: As a candidate, I am wondering if you would share your opinion on SUHSD using public tax dollars to support a Charter school? Thank You— August 13, 2014 1:38 p.m.

Sjtorres - you raise an important point "any candidate for the SUHSD Board needs to completely explain where they stand in these issues". AND,,, how are we to find out? Looking over some of the ballot statements one might scratch their head with query wondering just what am I reading - a couple in particular were nothing more than back slapping of what 'they', the writer, believe they have accomplished in their life - complete with more than a tad of s t r e t c h I n g......... Failure by one to report a FPPC letter that was received - no I do not have a PI license, it is right there on the Internet - Google is a great resource. 'Teacher' title with no certificate? Hmmm! Then, there are the interesting relocations of a couple of them just before they filed. I am sorry didn't we just work hard to get rid of like kind? Guess some see SUHSD Board seat as their ticket - looking to use vs serve STILL. My point, we do not need Board members who will continue to do what has been/is being done to us now? NO! We need Board members who will have the guts to stop this run away PROPERTY TRAIN.— August 13, 2014 7:45 a.m.
