[quote=Anonymous][quote]Why not give residents who paying city property taxes the right to vote? Many towns do it. Maybe this would lead to a city council and SB willing to put in the investment to build another high school and more middle schools.

The scope of what PTAC does May or may not be political but I am hard-pressed to understand why it is on them that a 17 year old kid was brazenly murdered during the day in a location where there would be witnesses and surveillance cameras.

Few own property so aren't paying property tax. In terms of cars, the older the car, the less chance there is any tax collected.
but you are right on about the fact that if they were given a voice through some means of voting that 2nd high school might have already been built.
People in SFH want walkable schools. Well don't think they think families on the West End living in condos and apartments want that for their kids as well?
If they feel it is not equitable, they can hold a lottery to determine which school a student attends.
It's pretty terrible that stuff so many kids into that one tiny building.[/quote]

Why couldn't they just make the new Minnie Howard building taller and make two high schools right near each other?  They could assign students randomly by lottery to be fair.
