Church Parking Agreement

At the last school board meeting, Vice President Elaine Cappucci recommended that a Right To Know request be filed, in order to see the Church Parking Agreement.   This agreement, which between Mt. Lebanon United Lutheran Church and the Mt. Lebanon School District, will enable students to park at the church during the high school construction.  The request has been granted and can be found here.

How did they come up with 10 more parking spots than last April?

Just a brief question.
I was always told you just could't scratch out a date on a legal document and replace it with a new one, without at a minimum initials from all signers noting that they approved the change.

Not a big deal here as I imagine no one would question it here. Just curious for my own education.

Elected officials- Its okay to not require a resident to file a right to know request every time they ask for something. If you have a copy of the document you could just turn it over. No one would condemn you for it. The law does not mandate that a resident has to do a right to know request. It just gives time lines for compliance when one is made.

Right to Know Requests can be verbal but the requestor gives up his/her right to appeal the district's denial to the Office of Open Records. (See the Governor's Policy on Right to Know Requests on the state website.)

The school board is making folks file a written request and when it is denied by the District and accepted by the Office of Open Records the Board sues the requestor in Commonwealth Court to block the Office of Open Records from overturning the District's denial.

This actually happened to a Mom in our District when Ed Kubit was board president. Ask Ed about it.

If I remember the School Code properly, only the Board President can execute a contract along with the Board Secretary. That means Mrs. Posti should have signed the Contract.
