The issues surrounding the St Mary's expansion were much more involved that a
simple height variance. For me the issue that needed the most attention was the
separation and buffering of dis-similar uses within that residential zone. One
issue that I am certain played absolutely no part in anyone’s mind was
religion. I’m insulted to hear this brought up. I am sure my council
partners are also insulted. While rumors of recalls began shortly after this
decision, I am quite comfortable with what happened. I understand news plans
are under discussion and I look forward to a solution to St Mary’s
expansion that will benefit the community as a whole.<br>
<br>
The question that each person needs to ask themselves, as they decide how to
vote on Tuesday, is which future will benefit the community more – a new
high school and remodeled elementary schools or the status quo. Those who
believe that 10 or 25 years from now things will be better off without these
improvements should vote that way. I believe that the bond should pass, I
believe that future is better for the community, and in the secret ballot box
on Tuesday that is how I will vote.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

Bottom line, the reason they rejected the facility expansion on St. Maries</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face=Gautami><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>>
was because the new building was two feet higher then code. Now who the hell</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face=Gautami><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>>
is that bothering, the flight path of a little sparrow? And what was it</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face=Gautami><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>>
costing the taxpayer? Nothing. Yet they turned it down. Stupid. Punishing</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face=Gautami><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>>
kids for no reason. The city would move a mountain or fill in a lake for a</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face=Gautami><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>>
public school. But it will not rewrite a code for two feet to improve</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face=Gautami><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>>
facilities for children at a religious school. This is what is insane and</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face=Gautami><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>>
unfair. This is the type of biased behavior our community engages in. And it</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face=Gautami><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>>
is sad. And it is why, according to a report released by the city, that 50%</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face=Gautami><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>>
of people in Moscow believe that religions are not tolerated in the</span></font></p>
