As reported in COST, another blog to which I contribute, the Greeley Evans District 6 school board still disrespects taxpayers.  It recently defeated a modest transparency proposal from new school board member Brett Reese.  Reese asked that every school district transaction over $1000 be posted online for taxpayers to see.  D6 members Judy Kron, Mark Hinze and Linda Trimberger voted against.  That means Reese, Doug Kershaw and Bob Stack voted in favor.

But wait!  Bob Stack? He has a well-documented history of opposition to transparency.  In comments on the Greeley Report, Reese revealed his theory about why Stack voted yes.

I also quietly scribbled a note to my neighbor, Bob Stack after the vote, “nice job saving your skin”.  Work session he voted against it, in public, he voted for it. Another flip-flopper?

Make some popcorn and pull up a chair.  School board meetings have become “Must See TV.”
