Trustee Taylor wants to hear back from public
By Matt McClure, Calgary Herald
The city’s public school board voted 5-1 Tuesday to adopt a policy that would no longer require trustees to approve hikes in busing fees, annual allocations to schools and expenditures over $500,000.
But with trustee Sheila Taylor refusing to make it unanimous, the Calgary Board of Education will have to wait at least a week to formally pass the new governance policy.
Taylor said she wanted a longer delay to provide for an opportunity for public feedback about the changes and to allow CBE officials to report on their impact.
“These are big changes we are contemplating. There will be big impacts,” Taylor told the meeting.
“Take some time to hear from Calgarians.”
