[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I get that these are purely political decisions. What I don’t get is why the council doesn’t have more power in them. Cheh + Nadeau + Silverman + Allen is a pretty large voting block and that whole group dislikes Bowser and vice versa.[/quote] Because schools don’t trump other projects for them that they need the mayor’s support and cooperation on. Traffic issues, housing, health care, parks (dogs and humans), economic development, go-go being allowed to play on the streets of Shaw. It isn’t like 50%+ of registered voters are single issue schools voters. And among voters who care about schools, no one agrees on one clear solution or path. 45% percent of public school parents are in charters and are more worried about a funding and facilities for their school than what happens at Deal or Wilson or its feeders.
