Have you ever seen the district requirements and fees for public use of the people’s buildings? They are voluminous, onerous and burdensome; so much so that they become a substantive discouragement for ordinary citizens to even petition for. To many these policies represent intentional and deliberately placed obstacles to the people’s right to gather and voice their complaints about the system.
Where does the district honor the people’s ownership of the buildings, respect the extraordinary tax the people already pay; and where does it support and encourage the people’s obligation to organize and descent?
I had intended to use one of the six school buildings to present my position about the proposed $173 million new school bond but new regulations have made that impossible.
For the good people of Westbury to forfeit this kind of power is a disgrace. For any district to intentionally take advantage of the peoples’ trust and deliberately attempt to deceive and obstruct them in their rightful attempt to use publicly owned buildings for legal and useful assembly, would expose the district as corrupt.
