“THE CITY COUNCIL SHOULD NOT HOLD up the funds for the district’s schools and should release them prior to the budget’s adoption. The special education issues were brought up by people who have had long-standing issues with the district in both good times and bad. In terms of the opinions by the City Council, I was most disappointed by the words and attitude of Bobby Shriver.”
