A "single penny on every purchase" isn't an accurate description. Calling it a "1 penny tax" is either a deception by the school board, or an indication of their ignorance. Either explanation doesn't reflect well on the board.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7862220451874774534.post-38249751445630023122015-06-26T15:56:01.164-05:002015-06-26T15:56:01.164-05:00Certainly the voters will restore tax that had bee...Certainly the voters will restore tax that had been in existence, unless there remains a total loss of confidence in the Baldwin County School Board. The Baldwin County School Board needs to come up with a number of alternatives that are more acceptable than the grandiose scheme for collecting money previously presented. They might consider a five year plan of construction and funding and ways to run and keep a tight budget. The money they wasted on propaganda was not wisely allocated and less wisely spent; an audit of those expenditure is in order. As they look toward construction they might focus on standardization and simplicity of design as ways to minimize cost. In any case, it does appear that , so far, the Baldwin County School Board is only looking at justifying what they previously proposed even though the rejection by the voters was absolute.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7862220451874774534.post-53595253003303389772015-06-26T09:26:20.338-05:002015-06-26T09:26:20.338-05:00Strong leadership is not a characterisitc of goven...Strong leadership is not a characterisitc of govenment in baldwin county at this time.<br /><br />Wimpy is more appropriate.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7862220451874774534.post-45732898526010577122015-06-21T08:35:04.387-05:002015-06-21T08:35:04.387-05:00" It will take strong leadership to bring it ..."
