Dear Mayor,
While I find myself on one hand congratulating you on
finally receiving approval of the city’s schedule for repayment of the Net
School Spending debt, it does trouble me that there has been no public
proclamation of the recently approved agreement. Apparently you are willing to
let the false reports of the ITEM and the illusions propagated among school
committee members go unrebutted.
Some might say in the end it does not matter because now the
results have caught up to the truth. Such a contortion of reality is in fact a
grievous injury to the trust between a people and its government, Failure to
acknowledgement’s is tantamount to a willingness to deceive the populace. It
would then seem that the purpose of the paper is to put forth the agenda of
your administration.
I implore you to not only publicly acknowledge the
recentness of this agreement but also go further and divulge the reasoning that
went into the reducing the city’s obligation from $17 million to $8 million. A
sense of educational justice mandates its disclosure.
Despite my request for a speedy disclosure, in fact, I do
not anticipate or quite frankly expect these pleas to be treated any different
than the numerous ones before. Still, I must profess them for prosperity’s
sake.
Good afternoon Mayor.
Sincerely,
Stan
