*amused*

I was walking home after one of my longer days at the Jade Mines, when I passed the *grumble* new football field the high school by my house put up. It's a long story, but the short version is that this was/is a private school, grabbing up public land they had no right to. They've done similar land grabs in the past, which makes the relationship between the school and the residents of the Island very tense at best. This last year it's been worse than usual, since they apparently finished the field but kept the gate to the supposed-to-be public sidewalk up all summer. It's still up, with a big orange "Keep out--Private Property" sign on it...

Until recently...




I'm not sure who put this up, but I'm positive it's one of my neighbors...and if I ever find out who, I will hug them and kiss them and call them George...heeheehee!

I have done the research and found that DeLaSalle High School's construction permit (#3054764) was closed on May 11, 2009. They do not have the right to maintain a construction site and block public access through the area (as per your understanding with them) and have not since that date.

Do with this knowledge what you will.

I'm tempted to put up a printout of that info onto the sign with a nice big piece of duct-tape...just so everybody can read it. Maybe Jamin will lend me the printer for a minute:)

They have now changed the sign to warm against entering the "fenced area" which includes a crappy chain length fence around the whole mess, I mean who needs to put a fence..next to a fence??

Awww, but I liked the improved sign better!

Well, chances are good this one will get changed too, and then they'll put barbed wire on the chain-fence too:P
