To the Editor:

I read a letter by Susan Southwick (“No Hidden Agendas,”10/9) that confused me a bit in regard to hidden agendas and transparency.

At the special meeting in August, I heard former board President James Donahower use the term “pie in the sky” when describing the $18 million proposal for the EJ building. The “pie in the sky” proposal was defeated 2-1 by the taxpayers of LBI. As a taxpayer, I am offended by the previous attempt to milk the taxpayers for over $10 million (not very transparent).
