Holy Boardroom, Batman! Are you kidding me?! What a waste of money. Who are we trying to impress? After the care put into reasonable spending and reducing the levy by McLaughlin, this is the Cecola swan song? Ugh 🥴
No one I know of has come up with a better, more succinct description of Brian Cecola’s capabilities as president as a good friend who often says: “If he had another brain he’d qualify as a half-wit.” Riff’s no better with his Arizona State community college education. As Forest would say they are, “like peas and carrots,” and not in a good way!
Please tell me this boardroom has not already been approved. Did they levy for it? The Board has talked about renovating the bathrooms for at least a decade, but declined due to costs. Other updates have been made in a cost effective manner. While I can see the need to proceed with necessary updates to the bathrooms, the other facilities, including the boardroom, do not need this extravagance. What happened to managing tax dollars efficiently?
