Special HS3 Meeting Agenda: AES MISSING ISSUE

Note the Absence of the AES Power Plant on the Agenda for Discussion between the CJUSD Board and the GT City Council. This is a Health Issue and should be a part of the collaboration if the City Council truly has the Best Interest of the Students in mind.

Also note the lack of Detail provided. The Typical CJUSD Board Meetings have an Agenda Listing and Agenda in Detail with support Documents and Exhibits. This Meeting being with the City of Grand Terrace provides only the bare bones outline as is the typical City of Grand Terrace practice. This in effect frustrates the efforts of citizens in becoming informed participants in the discussion and process.
