Town Hall Meeting on the unF.A.I.R. Plan
This from Metro Justice:
A Town Hall Meeting on the Brooks’ F.A.I.R. Plan
Tuesday, October 30
7pm
Willink Middle School
900 Publisher’s Parkway, Webster* How does the plan effect suburban schools and taxpayers?
* Does Brooks have the right to change the way money is distributed?
* The Spitzer administration secured the funding that was owed to schools. Will districts have enough resources to provide a sound, basic education?
Guests and invited speakers:
- Dave Malta, County Legislator for the 8th District
- Jody Siegle, Director of the Monroe County School Boards Association
- Carmin Gumina, Democratic and WFP Challenger for the 8th District
- Dr. Jane Fowler-Morse, expert on education finance reform
With Malta and Carmin Gumina both speaking, it should be an interesting night.

Does “invited guest” mean that Malta has definitely accepted the invitation?
I’m not sure, this is what I got from Metro Justice. I’ll see what I can find out.
I’d be surprised to see Malta attend. Looks like he’ll be outnumbered for sure. I don;t know Fowler Morse’s politics, but considereing she us a Educati professor at Geneseo and authored “Education as a Civil Right: A Meaningful Education in New York,†I tend to think she’ll probably be AGAINST the FAIR plan. But I could be wrong there…I’ll be there though for sure,

I’d be surprised if Malta was there, too. There’s no way he can defend it in front of that crowd - assuming that he actually understands the details of the plan. I suspect he doesn’t; that he voted ‘yes’ in lockstep without understanding the inplications of what he was voting ‘yes’ to.
