Everyone seems to have moved on to the Snowden School issue, but I'm still stuck at the 9 1/2 ac lot debacle that the schools system thought it owned.There seems to be a lack of competence galore. Not only the 4 jerks on the Commissioners Board, who could easily be nicknamed the 4 clones of Sgt Shultz, but also the School Board members who seemed to have played Zero role in the transaction. Thus we could nickname them Sgt Shultz's too. Then there is the City Council members who seem to be another body of Sgt Shultz's.

Who were the players? As far as I can tell, Cheeseman put his head together with the City Manager and agreed on a $500,000 price tag for HALF the 9 acs they thought they owned.

Out of these three bodies, no one said, Hey maybe we need a Title Search, and NO ONE said, Maybe we should negotiate this price on
behalf of the taxpayers?
Why didnt they? It stinks galore! It feels like a lot of money laundering between Governmental bodies at the detriment of the taxpayer.
