Chad,
Do you think that the lack of attendance from non board members had anything to do the fact that 2 days before the meeting the announced the limited list of things that they were going to be talking about (and what they wouldn't talk about) and the fact that NO ONE could address the meeting without petitioning them PRIOR to the meeting?

I for one think that if they wanted our input they would have announced this AT LEAST a few weeks in advance. I would also think that they would of post the bids prior to the meeting for everyone to look over and gather thoughts on (along with the rules of addressing) then maybe there would have been a better turn out.
It is kind of hard to get excited to jump in a car to go 2 hours each way to sit there and not have a say.
It kind of makes one wonder if the late notice was intentional?

I would like for someone to post the bids on here and then maybe we could ask our elected officials from our districts why the voted a specific way. Maybe then we could understand the logic before everyone starts to yell "get a rope"!

I would like to hear your point of view!
