Unbelievable

At tonight's HCSD Board of Education meeting --the one at which, after considering first the broad strokes and then the nitty-gritty of possible reductions, the BOE was supposed to make some decisions about cutting the budget--the BOE voted AGAIN 4 to 3 to adopt the same budget the voters rejected 3 to 1 on May 17.  The BOE members voting to adopt the budget were the usual suspects--Emil Meister, Jeff Otty, and Mary Daly--and the newest board member, Jeri Chapman. Voting against it were Peter Merante, Elizabeth Fout, and Peter Meyer.
