Board Decision Making Case Study

Improved Essays
Tom:

I will address each of your questions and assumptions as you made them.

1. “When did it become a board decision on how I spend my own funds?”
A. The Board did not ever made a decision about how you spend your own funds, and I have no idea where you came to that erroneous conclusion. The Board’s decision is about fairness, timing and accuracy.
2. “I attempted to go through the board to let my opinion be known to the homeowners, my opinion differed from the board's opinion so you denied me the ability to have the letter published.
A. I have never said that we deny you the ability to have your letter published. We are formulating guidelines to give ALL homeowners (that includes you) a forum to express their opinion in a fair and equitable manner. I told you that your letter, along with other letters will be considered for publication when we have formulated fair and reasonable guidelines.

While no decisions were as of yet made, we'll have to determine a good way to let us all know what folks in Foxridge think about the issues. Opinions, comments and thoughts such as you presented in your letter would be more appropriate to put out when this effort about what people want our GID to be reaches that

    While coming up with their rationale they looked the case of Hawaii Housing Authority v. Midkiff. In that case land was taken from lessors and given to lessees for just compensation to reduce the concentration of land ownership. They ruled that the state’s purpose of eliminating the “social and economic evils of a land oligopoly” was a valid reason for public use (Kelo). The court’s ruling for this case said that it would be “incongruous” to hold that the city’s interest in economic benefits to be derived from developing the Fort Trumbull area. The government’s pursuit for a public purpose will more than often benefit private parties.…

    Hazelwood v. Kuhlmeier I, Jhae’da Moss write this to support the majority opinion on the case of Hazelwood v Kulmeier. I chose this decision because this was done with good intentions for the kids. What he did was right, but the way he handled it was wrong. Since the articles were going to become a distraction to the students and offended several students, I believe that the school had the right to eliminate those offensive pages. Even though everyone is entitled to express their opinions, the restrictions were necessary in this case.…

    The tone of an essay or letter lets the reader know how the author feels about what he or she is writing about. Having the proper tone is key to writing a good essay, letter, or even an article if you're trying to inform or persuade someone about something. It helps the reader realize you're serious about whatever you're talking about or that it's an important issue. Dave Kessler, the sixth grade student who wrote a letter to the school newspaper editor about banning advertisement in school had a serious tone and was concerned about the issue. "It is not fair to influence young minds to buy products or watch television programs when they should be focused on schoolwork," Kessler states in his letter.…

    My dirt road has been a hindrance to my neighborhood which has caused more than enough trouble. I have wanted it paved ever since I could personally drive and when I witnessed the issues that the road caused. The county’s lack of cooperation has left the neighborhood frustrated and unsure of how to fix the problem. My community has struggled for years with the issue of paving Calhoun road, which has caused damage to both citizens and their vehicles forcing us to bear the burden of paying for repairs and necessary improvements. I have lived on Calhoun road my entire life and for as long as I can remember my family and neighbors have tried getting it paved to no avail.…

    Hazelwood vs. Kuhlmer & T.M vs. State of Florida Hazelwood vs. Kuhlmer In this case I tended to favor a loose interpretation. Even though students have the right to express their own opinions, it is necessary to have limitations in order to avoid chaos within the student body. I know the school was acting in a way of protecting its students and the majority. Yes the newspapers are a public expression but the school’s faculty has every right to change what is in the newspapers.…
