Lodi Taxpayers Saw Headlines Like This From 2017-2019 When There Was Accountability and Transparency. Lodi Taxpayers Saw Headlines Like This When the Lodi BOE Was Receiving a Fraction of the State Aid it Is Receiving Today.

Lodi should have seen tax reductions in the last few years as millions more in State Aid poured in. It did not.

Lodi deserves better than the poor excuses and irresponsible spending that it is about to see in the upcoming weeks from the Lodi BOE.

Lying politicians get away with as much as the voters let them get away with.  

It's disingenuous for the Lodi Board of Education and its administration to make excuses when it erased(undid) all of the accountability and transparency measures put in place during the three years that Lodi saw tax reductions.  Accountability and transparency measures lead to more responsible budgeting. 

The Lodi BOE has not provided the public with one "Detailed Budget" since 2019 even when requested via OPRA. And that should tell you everything.
