Residents say district rushed land purchase, urge public forums before athletic complex move
Summary
Multiple residents told the Colman‑Egan School Board they feel excluded from decisions about a recently purchased parcel and a proposed athletic/multi‑use facility, raising concerns about community support, parking and drainage and urging open forums at board meetings.
Public commenters told the Colman‑Egan School Board the district’s recent land purchase and proposed athletic complex lack community support and that board members must answer questions in open meetings. One resident criticized the board’s responsiveness and asked the district to hold repeated public forums until community backing is secured.
“All that this community really wants, I feel, is to be heard,” the resident said, and argued that repeatedly dismissing questions at public comment only increases division. She urged the board to stop answering questions behind closed doors and to provide clear opportunities for the public to weigh in before moving forward with site planning or construction.
