Snowgates; Contact SF city councilors about calling the Spring Election

I am listing the direct phone numbers of the four councilors who may be on the fence about Snowgates. Please call them and let them know you want them to call the election for this Spring. They will be discussing the election on Tuesday at the informational meeting.

Councilor Dean Karsky • 351-8571

Councilor Jim Entenman • 334-2721

Councilor Michelle Erpenbach • 321-0793

Councilor Sue Aguilar • 334-8245

Is Dictator Homan becoming the Mike Rounds of the school district?

From possible PETITION DRIVES to overthrow her bad ideas, to BLATANT NEPOTISM, Pammy is slowly becoming like our former (anti) Governor Rounds;

“We’re going to explore whether or not a petition drive to put the school closing to a public voting makes any sense,” Andersen said.

Gage says that means this group will need to do its research to see what the law allows and more importantly find a group of volunteers that are willing to take this petition.

The group would need up to 15,000 signatures on the petition to put the school consolidation to a public vote.

Great, another petition drive to overthrow bad decisions made by our supposed leaders.

Oh, and Pammy likes to tell us she had nothing to do with this;

A second adult child of Sioux Falls School District Superintendent Pam Homan has been hired by Southeast Technical Institute, which is governed by the same elected body as the public schools.

I wonder how long, if ever, this job was posted on the school district’s website? And how many applications for the job mysteriously found the same fate as the Rosa Parks public naming suggestions?

Hopefully with a new school board there will be a thorough review of Homan’s job performance, or lack there of.

MESSIER  10

The globular cluster is descending
Watch out if you can
The universe is more than
we can control
so let’s enjoy the colors
it brings and hope we are
gone before it ends
but if everlasting life is
a guarantee
then who cares
Let’s dance all night
with those that love freedom

Snowgates Timeline

I wanted to give an update and timeline of where we are on snowgates.

• Petitions were turned in on Tuesday

• The clerk’s office is validating them

• After validation, the city council has 10 days to call an election

• At the next city council informational meeting (I think next Tuesday, Dec 4th) City Clerk Hogstad and the city attorney will be answering questions about the special election.

• When the city council calls the election, they will have a choice between calling the date for either this Spring (2013) or Spring (2014).

I guess we will just be in a holding pattern until then.

Is the Anti-Governor running for senate?

Get out the party favors!

Soon one of the worst governors (besides Janklow) will become our worst senator;

“I am here today to ask the people of South Dakota for their support and to allow me to work for them as their United States Senator in 2014,” Rounds said in a statement.

I encourage anyone whose is ANTI anything to vote for him;

Anti-Education

Anti-Open Government

Anti-Child Welfare (The Mette Case)

Anti-Fair Bid Contracts

Anti-Limited government

Anti-Fiscal responsibility

Anti-Ethics
