The parish attorney is a fricking liar. Saying the voters were mislead


It could be argued. They pushed the whole new school system pretty hard when it was never part of the deal
And I have a hard time believing their tax numbers are correct

Incorporation is necessary to get the new school system, or so St George was told by the state legislature. I didn’t see a single ad or statement from StG that stated a new school system would instantly appear after the incorporation vote.

The legislature told them that forming a city was a pre-requisite to getting an independent school district. They have to incorporate first, then create a school district. This suit is stopping them from incorporating. You're being disingenuous, not them.

This is akin to a city getting awarded a professional sports team because the people voted to build an arena, but you're complaining that they haven't already built the arena yet despite having passed a bond issue and having already picked out a site to build it on.

I too am skeptical of the tax numbers, but the criticism about the school district not being a part of the vote is purposefully misrepresenting the issue. They have to incorporate BEFORE they can work on getting the school district. The whole reason they went through all of this work to incorporate a city is to get a school district!

Do you even know how this entire SG this thing came about? It doesn't appear so.
