Special Board of Education Meeting this Wednesday at 6:30...




From the Open Public Meetings Act:


d. "Adequate notice" means written advance notice of at least 48 hours, giving the time, date, location and, to the extent known, the agenda of any regular, special or rescheduled meeting, which notice shall accurately state whether formal action may or may not be taken and which shall be…


Staff appointments will be made this Wednesday.  We are approaching 48 hours before the meeting and the public has not been provided an agenda showing which positions are being filled and by whom.  Board members have not been provided a detailed agenda.  I have no knowledge of what I will be voting on in 48 hours.  You would think an administration would want Board members to research what they are voting on.


"Staff appointments" is too general.  The agenda must reasonably reflect the matters to be discussed.  Capizzi's notice does NOT reasonably reflect the matters to be discussed.  


Frank Quatrone and Marc Capizzi know who will be hired this Wednesday.  A detailed agenda should be provided to the public at least 48 hours prior to the meeting.  Quatrone and Capizzi go out of their way to fight all efforts for transparency.
