>BOE: It is the sworn obligation of ALL the board members to act in the taxpayers’ interests
It is the sworn obligation of ALL the board members to act in the taxpayers’ interests. It is mind-numbing to listen to and read all the complaints about VC and BOE members, watch the complainers elect unqualified/inappropriate candidates and then listen and read as those same complainers give their candidates passes when they cow-tow to a vocal minority, instead of acting in the best interests of Ridgewood.
your joking right?…
A few don’t seem to be acting in my best interests. My taxes keep going up, while the schools and the village don’t get noticeably better. Why is it that none of them seem willing to take a hard line against any of the public sector unions? The way that the Village Council caved to the police union a few months ago was embarrassing. Five years of raises? Minimal healthcare contributions? In a recession? I hope that the BOE shows more of a backbone in their negotiations with the teachers.
