Dear Chief Budget Officer Ferrucci,

You and I have spoken on several occasions and you have always been helpfu, professionall and courteous, so hopefully you can help me now. I honestly don't understand why you and the members of the School Committee had no trouble ironing out a contract for construction planning for $175,000 and a bond in excess of $90 million for repairs and maintenance but you and the members of the School Committee can't even find the time to "talk" to our teachers. Talking to them would show good faith and costs nothing!

As our Chief Budget Officer doesn't this sound like a no-brainer? Please recommend it to the School Committee. It's discomforting to know that $160,000,000+ is in the control of only 3 people, the number of votes it takes to be a majority. Does that sound financially sound to you? It doesn't to me.

Thanks for reading.
