A Call For Transparency – A Reminder
UPDATE: Today’s the big day. Will the Fullerton Collaborative let us know who their donors are? We’ve been patiently waiting to find out for a month. Today we’ll find out if the information is forthcoming.
Last month we asked City Council member Pam Keller for the records of donors to the Fullerton Collaborative since she came onto the City Council. You may recall that the reason we asked was because we were curious whether or not any of the contributors had business before the City, especially business where Keller herself may have participated in the decision-making process. We cited the example of St. Jude’s Medical Center, a listed member of the Collaborative who happened to have a major project before the City a couple of years ago, a project that Keller voted on, and for.
At the time Keller informed us that she would raise the subject at the September Board meeting. After an inquiry the other day, we have learned that there is a board meeting on September 22. Whether the announced meeting of September 8 was held or not we do not know.
We’ll let you know what we find out next week. Promise.
that “silly little girl” was in Chicago at a class on how to cook up the books!
I for one hope she stayed there!
We have enough crime in this fine city already…
Pam thinks that nobody reads this blog? This site has more visitors in a single month than Pam had votes in 2006.
Uh oh!
I, for one, am reading…and waiting for her reply.
C’mon rly now, how long could it take to fashion a plausible lie?
Who pays for trips to Chicago? Or those sister city trips they take under the guise of diplomacy?
Is Nelson supporting Ackerman or Norby in this race and are they supporting him?
If Nelson is smart he’ll stay out of it. Or at least get an endorsement from Norby first. The Ackerman campaign is contemptible and can not be supported under any circumstances.
This school board is a huge waste! I was tired of asking my son about his homework only to hear him reply that they are preparing for state testing. They prepared for three weeks before the test then blew another week having the test. In the end, the statistical report was totally worthless! Then when they weren’t preparing for state tests, they would do plays, arts, crafts, and musicals! For crying out loud, how the F#@K is he going to keep a roof over his head and food on the table with out the basics of reading, writing, and arithmetic. I guess he could go get an art degree and teach in the district…!
I pulled him out after the 5th grade and put him into a private school. Now he is very good at reading, writing, and arithemetic. With those skills being mastered (for his grade level) he is excelling in science, technology, and history. I hate our K-12!
