Is the Minneapolis School District getting more money to operate the schools than it did last year? If this is not the case, the school board members on the list should set the record straight. If revenues are up, why the huge budget shortfall? Where is the district spending money now that it didn't last year? (It should be noted that gasoline and heating fuel prices have fallen since last year.) -Doug Mann, King Field _______________________________________ Minneapolis Issues Forum - A Civil City Civic Discussion - Mn E-Democracy Post messages to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subscribe, Unsubscribe, Digest option, and more: http://e-democracy.org/mpls
