Show Am Very Disappointed I am very disappointed in your newspaper for not having someone at the Garfield Co. School Board meeting to report the facts. The budget cut issue was a major concern con-cern for many Garfield Co. residents and it was obvious from the amount of people who came to the meeting. I can't believe that you were not there to cover such a newsworthy event and especially after printing an article about it before. I would hope that you would at least try to get a copy of the minutes min-utes or tapes as to hear the facts and report on them. Most of us left the meeting very upset and feeling like nothing had been accomplished and therefore we are pursuing this further. fur-ther. For that reason, this is not the end of this story. So consequently conse-quently you might want to find out the current facts, as there will be more to come. I say shame on you for not be ing there! Carol Gericke Antimony EDITORS NOTE: We are simply sim-ply unable to attend every meeting in the county. & ' We spent substantial time aid effort in researching the school board's actions and their explana- tion for their actions, and we presented pre-sented the information in a lengthy article prior to the meeting. We were also careful to make certain that our readers knew the date, time and place of the meeting so they could attend and present their approval or their objections, As a result, the meeting was heavily heav-ily attended Signed letters to the editor could have been sent for publication expressing people's opinions about specific issues relative to the board's decisions. We received none. |
