Sure, the people should choose their own fate. Like I said earlier, attach a true price tag for each and assign a share based on income to each taxpayer for each proposition based on those prices and let 'em choose. The people should know where their money is going and what it is going towards. The "each taxpayer can't afford it" argument is BS...cuz either way each taxpayer is going to have to afford it. That's exactly why the decision should be made by the taxpayers and not a handful of elected officials (who have a stake in their vote come election time) or the school system (who wants a pie in the sky at an unaffordable price). There are pros and cons to both sides of the argument...but the time has passed for debate and studies and all that other garbage. Each side has made their points....now it's time to let the people decide.

So is it legal? If it violates state law then it can't happen.....I think you could have a non binding resolution to get a more true gadge of what people want to do but to me this just seems like the latest stalling tatic to put off doing anything for another year
