Just want to correct a little technicality here. I asked that the bill be "separated", in order to vote "no". Since there were not 5 votes to pay the lawyers (and the lawyer from the firm who has taken this on as a personal crusade apparently is Ms. Hope Blackburn), the motion to pay them failed. I have told Danny that I, as one BOE member who does not speak for the board, will support whatever the Little League parents decide. So if they want to continue to fight for the Little League field at the High School site, I will support that. A resolution at the next BOE meeting (Dec. 19) directing the administration and the attorneys to butt out and proceed with Danny's original plans (remember that Danny already has the necessary permits from the city) will have to face two hurdles as I see it. First, four other board members would have to support it. And then the state "monitor" (really a czar) would have to not veto it. If the Little League folks want to fight, I am hoping that every person in town who supports them will call central office (732-776-2663) and demand to speak with Mr. Cowell. For him to take this on as the very first official act as State Monitor is a huge mistake, not to mention a slap in the face and the pocketbook of every person in town who cherishes the Little League. If this is an example of what he thinks is wrong with the district, what is next on the state "monitor's" hit list? Biddy basketball? Pop Warner? Frank D. Yahoo!
