Gerry, please check out the website. Perceptions are sometimes wrong. We are the 3rd poorest district in the county. And we are in the last 20% of districts in the state who have not sent a referendum to vote in the last 20 years. <div class=""><br class=""><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""><br class=""><a href="https://overview.mail.yahoo.com/?.src=iOS" class="">Sent from Yahoo Mail for iPhone</a><br class=""><br class=""><p class="yahoo-quoted-begin" style="font-size: 15px; color: #715FFA; padding-top: 15px; margin-top: 0">On Tuesday, February 26, 2019, 10:26 AM, Gerald Flakas <<a href="mailto:gerflak@aol.com" class="">gerflak@aol.com</a>> wrote:</p><blockquote class="iosymail"><div id="yiv4308940344" class=""><div class=""><div style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;" class=""><div style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;" class="">Thanks for passing this along, Heidi.
