There were three anti Red Plan letters to the editor over the weekend.
Hank Kauffman said:
“Can somebody explain to me how, if the district is $4.5 million in debt and receives $8.3 million the debt is only cut in half?”
Geraldine Warner said:
As far as I know, the sale wasn’t even included in the red plan. Where is the money coming from? Also, a neighboring building at the corner is for sale. Will the district buy that, too? How about the nearby Dairy Queen? Is any piece of property safe?
And I especially like Karen Young’s stirring conclusion:
I am against the red plan because it is a waste of money and imprudent, considering Duluth’s dropping enrollments and a lack of business and jobs to draw new people to fill these white elephants and pay for them. I am against the red plan because the oligarchical School Board is shoving it down the throats of the citizenry because they want to and they apparently can and because only a few Davids are trying to stop them.
