Will Co. (ECWd) –
We have published numerous articles exposing a laundry list of problems with District 210 who has managed to rack up a half a billion [yes, Billion, with a B] of bond debt while deficit spending to the tune of $37 Million since 2009.
Many comments have streamed in with a common theme of “what can we do about it“, as in, now that it is exposed what options do the taxpayers have.
It is clear a group of local residents understand our Republic and the use of the laws established.
Today those people filed a lawsuit against the Board of Education in what will prove to possibly be the first step in what many other districts need to do.
Below is the press release on the lawsuit. We will publish a copy of the lawsuit shortly.

Posted at 22:59h, 30 DecemberWe have lived here for over 40 years. We have grandchildren in the school system. I agree that something needs to be done about this school problem. Why are they putting so many students in one school? Soon everyone will be asked to float a referendum so improvements can be done to one of the oldest (and most expensive) buildings, adding insult to this situation. I applaud those who are giving their time to do something about this impossible situation. If someone is found to be less than honest about this problem, this should be discovered sooner than later.

Posted at 12:31h, 30 DecemberYou guys only post what you feel like posting. This is not gonna work. Majority of taxpayers are upset about this lawsuit. Takes real arrogance to ask for donations. Only North parents are upset. Grow up !

Posted at 18:33h, 29 DecemberThank you for taking action! It’s about time someone filed suit against those responsible for this. Why didn’t they take action sooner rather than later is the question. Why was this allowed to go on so long and nobody was able to identify the problems and fix it sooner. Where did all the money go, to who? Follow the money. Anyways…good luck winning this case. Happy New Year!
