Even if you think the CA Board incumbents failed at maintaining control over a rogue President, wouldn’t you want the replacements to at least acknowledge that what Lakey was doing was problematic in the first place? Would you say that people who defend what she did would actually be even more harmful than the incumbents, who did not act quickly enough to stop it?

Did you attend the open meetings? Because all I saw were a bunch of unqualified yokels who should not be leading out community.

Like shooting down the idea of revisiting the town's strategic plan in the wake of COVID? One of the dumbest fucking things I ever heard coming out of board's mouth was "the strategic plan is the strategic plan." That statement showed me that a number of these board members have no vision, are out of touch and are unqualified to lead in any type of executive capacity.

It’s more that, and I don’t mean this in a “burn it down” anti-civic sense, sometimes a situation is so dumb it’s better to move to the forensics/recovery phase.

I wish all the board, and Boyd for that matter, health and love and happiness, but smearing/rehabilitating them is a misapplication of everyone’s energy.

I’d love a full outside accounting of what happened, and laws/bylaws enacted to prevent similar issues in the future.

All I know is if I was wrongfully smeared, and up for re-election soon, I would probably want the record set straight on what actually went down
