[quote=Anonymous]I don't know that this is a Frisch issue. During that election, every single SB candidate plus Connolly came out against the Blake Lane school. I was furious. I talked to my local candidates and their door knockers, and all of them said there were ways to address crowding without touching the dog park - but when I asked what those were, no one had any specifics or would commit to anything. We are nearby the Blake Lane site and zoned for Mosaic, which is overcrowded. A Blake Lane school would have taken the pressure off our school and other nearby schools. According to the CIP at the time, the new school would have opened this fall. Yes there are a lot of schools clustered in this area, but there are also a lot of students so the schools are very crowded. And schools do offer green space (fields, playground). It's absolutely ridiculous that a school won't be built on a lot that is actually named Blake Lane School Site. It's not a park, it's a vacant lot that people temporarily got to use as a dog run.
