As of the week before this meeting, the plume for stormwater to enter the new detention area at 4th Street is under re-construction. The first edition was not nearly robust enough to handle the water, and it is being redone at no expense to the District.

Agenda for this public meeting

A. Agenda Analysis

  1. Bond update, item 3: This is Supt. Heath's second meeting, and he is here during peak construction of the new elementary school.

  2. Administration reports, item 4: Everything here is important. I am following the TIA item at 4B. See my meeting review for the Oct 8 2025 meeting at B3. In short, this program gets higher salaries for teachers if they meet certain performance goals. It is highly structured and worth the attention.

  3. Hiring and resignation, 6A and 6B: I always pay attention to the comings and goings. It is generally easy to learn about new contract approvals, but resignations can be firings. They are often hard to get info on without an PIA request after the meeting.

  4. Approval of minutes, item 7D: I missed the last meeting, though I've received an update on it from President Carlile. I anticipate doing a PIA request on some matters related to it and covering it later, but the 765 kV cases are taking up my extra time.

  5. Miscellaneous: There are a few things about this agenda that are unique and worth knowing more about. At the beginning of Dr. Moore's tenure I publicly dinged her on some things on her agendas. I learned some things from that approach, and I won't be handling it just the same way here. Stay tuned.


Birders and local thrill seekers: stand in the street next to my Pecan tree and these two Mississippi Kites will pay you a surprise visit. They often perch in this oak tree across the street. There are more in the area, but I'm unsure of their numbers. The local squirrel population, though, has suddenly decreased. They don't seem deterred when I wear a bike helmet around them...

B. Meeting Review

Pending. My schedule after this meeting is going to keep me away from the screens for a bit, so my updates on this meeting may fall to next week.






C. Commentary

  1. 765 kV cases: I have added a new page, 765 kV Documents, where I am compiling the documents I am filing in the cases. It's not near complete, as I have pulled out the stops to prevent their construction and I've not yet uploaded all the documents I have filed. The District should pay very close attention to these cases because if approved they are most certainly going to bring more development and more students to the county. (They will make it attractive for AI data and battery storage facilities to develop in the county.) I've had a bit of an advantage over most landowners because my professional career at the AG's office also involved the appeal of administrative law cases from the State Office of Administrative Hearings, SOAH.

  2. Pending
