While I do recognize that rebuilding Eastern High School is an emergency for the kids, however, I might point out that the school board is not just rebuilding Eastern High School the way it was, if that was the case the insurance company funding should pay for that.

Here in lies the politics:

The present plan calls for expanding Eastern High School by over 50% of it's original size which would require additional funding beyond the cost to be paid by the insurance company without voter approval, that is what I'm questioning.

This has gone from a rebuilding project to an expansion effort. All of the other school expansions have been completed by the financing of bonds that were approved by the voters. Why should the expansion of Eastern be financed differently in a manner that bypasses the voters and requires repayment at a higher interest rate.?
