"The board will also be requesting further money from the city in the near future after receiving a letter from the state civil rights office warning that the sports fields, owned by the city but used by the district, are out of compliance with handicap accessibility standards, which could mean the revocation of federal funding."

Here we are in July and threarts of more layoffs still loom; now the city is told by some state civil rights office that our sports fields are out of compliance and that the city is in danger of losing fed funding if it doesn't magically come up with $3M to fix the fields. What else can the state do to tax us to death? The city has no more blood to give.

I say, if we can't fix the fields, perhaps we should cancel those sports involved.; July 12, 2011 at 9:37 AM
