It’s important that we as taxpayers be present and aware of BISD plans once again to raise taxes due to needing more money. In my continued research it has still YET to be proven where the last 24 million went and in my opinion the interim superintendent and board still lacks accountability and transparency. In my opinion not much has changed other names and titles. I just have questions.
* Why would we trust them ? They are all basically still the same people who allowed and watched the 24 million dollars walk out the door and left the school unfinished and in financial distress. My vote at this moment is until someone comes in with the financial and management skills set to straighten things out it’s a hard NO for me on raising taxes to fix their mess. This is my opinion and you’re entitled to yours but I have tons of their financial records that I paid for with the next set they are charging me 740.00 dollars to get since they have failed to give me ALL the documentation at one time so now I have spent over 500.00 so far and still have incomplete paperwork but do see how we still owe the contractor 1 million dollars among other deficiencies.
