Is this supposed to represent a preemptive strike and an assurance that her word is the only truth? I think that she should be willing to be removed immediately and investigated if not only to provide evidence of her "honesty". Too much time may already have elapsed and some documents may already be in shreds.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29571009.post-18551598617229774362007-09-20T18:09:00.000-07:002007-09-20T18:09:00.000-07:00There is no confusion or conflicting rumor concern...There is no confusion or conflicting rumor concerning your negligent waste of millions in district funds on a property purchase.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29571009.post-79239070985611535212007-09-20T17:40:00.000-07:002007-09-20T17:40:00.000-07:00Based on what I have seen at Cedar Valley Elementa...Based on what I have seen at Cedar Valley Elementary, you could check the level of contamination with a dipstick.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29571009.post-59765826309109084922007-09-20T17:39:00.000-07:002007-09-20T17:39:00.000-07:00This whole thing is making me ill.

The...Open Public Government <BR/><BR/>www.washingtoncog.org<BR/><BR/>1. The goal should be to assure access, not to file and win a lawsuit. Talk with the people involved about the presumption of openness in Washington laws. Try to work things out short of litigation. <BR/>2. Talk with the attorney for the public agency to see if counsel thinks the law has been followed. <BR/>3. Document your efforts to get a record or attend a meeting where access is denied. <BR/>4. Seek the advice of an attorney not associated with the public agency involved. Often an attorney can briefly advise you at little or no charge. <BR/>5. If you file suit and are successful, the laws provide that you may recover reasonable attorney's fees and in some cases monetary penalties.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29571009.post-49345778186498411162007-09-19T20:57:00.000-07:002007-09-19T20:57:00.000-07:00RCW 42.56 The Public Documents Acts requires stric...RCW 42.56 The Public Documents Acts requires strict compliance by the School District to provide documents requested or state the reason to deny, along with the reasonable amount of time needed to fulfill the request.
