shows a lot less class than the Duluth School Board and will take the money and run.
Many taxpayers in the St. Louis County School District don’t know whether they should be angrier with their local school board, or their state senator.
That’s been the general reaction to the school board’s decision last week to impose a $300 per pupil unit levy on taxpayers, without a public vote. Senate Majority Leader, Tom Bakk, pushed through the authority for school districts this past legislative session, much to the dismay of many taxpayers in his own district. We suspect the senator has already heard from some of them.
