Letter: Mudge Calls For Restoration of Original School Bus Service

In accordance with School Committee Policy “BE,” I am polling each member of the committee for the purpose of convening an emergency and/or a special meeting of the committee on Wednesday (Sept. 5), Thursday (Sept, 6), or Friday (Sept. 7) of this coming week to discuss and vote on the following items:

1)    Restoring bus transportation services (safety issue) to the children of  Yorktown Manner who attend , and to 

2)    Restore . 

I believe a serious safety issue has been created by discontinuing transportation services to the children of Yorktown Manor and we have adversely impacted our children’s ability to take full advantage of the many educational opportunities that are provided by our School Department.

Respectfully, I request you to provide your response, ASAP, to School Committee Secretary Laureen Berglund (with a copy to me), or by no later than 7 p.m. on Monday evening.  Please note that this is not a request to determine if you can attend this meeting, but rather to get your approval to hold /conduct this meeting.  Absent your response by Monday evening, I will request Mrs. Berglund to contact you by phone on Tuesday morning, provided we have not received a quorum vote to hold a meeting. Should a positive quorum vote be obtained, each member will be immediately contacted as to the time and place of the meeting.

Finally, please recognize I am calling for this emergency and/or open special meeting in accordance with provisions of RIGL 42-46 (OMA).

Thank You, 

Bill Mudge
