I guess the newest Council tactic is to ask you to reduce your comments to written form and submit. This allows them to ignore you twice for the price of admittance. Nifty move.

Comment on Reading is fun and mental! by Jack Burke

Jack Burke — Sun, 18 Apr 2010 11:27:18 +0000

So reading the meeting minutes for the next year we find a much clearer statement.
TRANSCRIPT OF PUBLIC RECORD METHUEN SCHOOL COMMITTEE MEETING at 7:00 pm duly posted for Monday May 11,2009

6. New Business (first read)
a. School Choice Participation â€“ Vote

MOTION BY: Mr. Vogler seconded by Mr. Kazanjian to accept the Superintendentâ€™s choice not to participate

I noted that this was a first read. That means that it must have a second read to become approved.
I was unable to find the second read on this measure. Again I ask, did we accept this or not?
