Isn’t it amusing that the common thread though out the comments is that there is one side that wants accountability and another side that doesn’t want discussion. The call for discussion or accountability is answered not with reason or with a well thought out argument, it’s simply the same story, such as “do it for the kids” “you don’t have a plan” “you aren’t being positive.” What a tiresome display of the uneducated. In other words, I don’t have a plan either, but you should just go along to get along.
The most educated and thoughtful arguments are discounted with the above comment and that is precisely what is wrong with Estes Park. No thoughtful arguments are listened to, just shot down by the sheep, blaaa, blaaaa.
Here’s a thoughtful idea. Vote no to anything that doesn’t pass the smell test. That would be everything that we are looking at now. Force the School Board and the Town Board to present plans that are accountable, well thought out and reasonable. Give us options and alternatives. To those of you that don’t think this is positive, you will do what you are told anyway, so ignore this. You don’t have thoughts or ideas and don’t care about them.
Is it the Estesparkian’s job to find solutions? Is it any citizens? NO! One would, however, expect that a board or entity that asks us all to support them would be clear about their plan. A plan, by the way, is more than asking for money. Vote no you ask? Yes, that is a plan.
