Our local school district board is holding their vote tomorrow night (Tuesday, January 5) on the PS8/PS307 rezoning proposed by the city Department of Education. The meeting will begin at 6:30pm at PS 56 (170 Gates Avenue), but it is recommended that you arrive early — by 6pm at the latest to get a seat — since a large turnout is likely, if previous meetings are any indication.

As CEC 13 notes, if you want to comment, submit your thoughts by clicking on the link below:

There will be a final and, compared with the previous meetings on the rezoning topic held to date, brief comment public period at the start of the calendar meeting before the vote itself. Speakers are encouraged to be pithy and to the point. We strongly encourage everyone and anyone who has final comments to make for the DOE and/or CEC to use the online form to submit them today at http://cec13.org/hot-topics/rezoning/rezoning-comments/.
