Excerpt:
Maybe this Ben: https://blnnews.com/2024/09/20/tri-valley-incident/
Numerous kids report they saw a gun. The way this incident was handled had 6 parents speak at the September Board meeting according to the minutes. Other parents present didn’t speak. Maybe transparency is a better option than Mouser’s “don’t tell your parents”? (At least that’s what I was told happened frequently during his reign)
If you want transparency quit electing Board Members that allow Administration to get away with none.
Of course that involves actually voting April 1st. You have options this year.
Not a laughing matter:
Tonight the School Board will seize a lot more of your money by raising your property taxes. Don’t fall for “the rate will be lower”
Of course it will be lower because the taxable pot was increased by the Assessor. Illinois residents are taxed on unrealized gains they won’t ever see unless they sell their home. They have to leave Illinois or high taxes just follow them.
Add Tri-Valley to the long list raising taxes. So far only Bloomington hasn’t, not counting the library.

You can sell your house for $1.00 on $500,000 and be shamed into paying unrealized gain and be shamed if you don’t pay the $$ Property Tax and your home taken. *thus instigating homelessness and bankrupting working class).
Thank you guru Real Estate CAD/Accounting- Assessment systems, community public/private partnerships…The System has been broken for a long time and worse now. Calling something Business Intelligence and Economy growth and Sustainable is a huge deception (while they all walk away with pensions for life and we pay for their “benefits”).
Sounds like no one even questions any of it (probably cause they like to gloat about their raised property/land values and are in charge of all decisions.
Hate to be blunt but there is a reason why people do not trust the system or political class.
