It could be argued. They pushed the whole new school system pretty hard when it was never part of the deal
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!

Everyone keeps forgetting this. The Mayor President fricked around and now she is finding out. They just wanted a school district and Broome said NO. Quite reasonably, they are tired of paying out the arse to fund crap schools in the city and paying for their kids to go to private schools on top of that. The Mayor pitched a fit and this is what she got. I would guarantee she would take the original offer if given the chance. Too bad for her.
