Yesterday the Greenwich Democratic Town Committee sent residents an email about the long-running Board of Education lawsuit, and it gets the story badly wrong. The facts aren’t in dispute. The state Freedom of Information Commission ruled unanimously that the Democratic BOE members held an illegal meeting to fill a board vacancy, and that they “acted in bad faith.” They were also the ones who threatened the Town with a lawsuit and refused to seat a lawfully appointed member. |
Just this Monday, First Selectman Fred Camillo met with Acting BOE Chair Sophie Koven and member Paul Cappiali and came away encouraged that a fair resolution was in reach. We thank Ms. Koven and Mr. Cappiali for that good-faith effort, and we hope partisan attacks aren’t allowed to undo it. Greenwich residents deserve the facts, and they deserve to see this chapter closed.
