[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]That’s not an FFM post but also doesn’t support your claim. I agree with that poster btw that there should be more transparency in the KAA process.[/quote]

It may not be a FFM post, but it is from a member of Fairfacts Matter who [b]represents the organization on the BRAC committee.[/b][/quote]

Everyone is allowed to have varying opinions in things, even within the same organization.  Requiring a purity test and giving group condemnation for individual thought is not a normal way for adults to interact.[/quote]

Of course they do.  However, someone had said that  FFM had not said anything about extra buildings that could be used in a response about the KAA purchase.  Perhaps it is not on FFM Facebook, but it is posted by their representative to the BRAC committee.

So what?  Why shouldn’t people ask FCPS whether it explored alternatives before committing to drop $150 million (and the final price tag will be higher) on a building designed as a private K-12 school for about 1000 kids?

Again, that’s not opposition to the deal, just an effort to understand whether any rigor went into FCPS’s decision.  The SB had been claiming FCPS was cash-strapped for years and couldn’t possibly do anything for other overcrowded schools, so it’s a surprise when they suddenly announce they are prepared to cough up $150M that wasn’t fully funded to buy KAA.  We still don’t know where the money will come from or what other renovation projects will be delayed. [/quote]

I feel like I am talking crazy pills when I repeatedly see that poster push back on people who advocate for transparency.

I’m guessing she is a Region 5 special interest rep.[/quote]

I doubt our Region 5 special interest rep has any interest in KAA.    And, what does that have to do with moving Forestville?  Forestville has no impact at all on the KAA area.  Why would you think that?[/quote]
