She basically said most people at Tyler were supporting the LI. I agree that all I've heard at Tyler is that people are disappointed but no one really outraged about this. I sure hope, however, that she did not give the impression that she was speaking for all Tyler families. I am beginning to think that the CFLF is made up of mostly Taylor parents or it so it seems. I probably wouldn't be as opposed to this if I lived east of Farmington Rd. But, for those of us west of Farmington, they have left us with no nearby elementary school. Coolidge is over 3 1/2 miles away (and I always thought Tyler was far!). I believe in giving your opinion, but Ms. Lambert should not have given her opinion on how other Tyler families feel. I know of many families personally who do not like this thing. They go to Tyler and Taylor. Remember, there will be no schools on this side of town if this happens, and I am sure many people are upset about that. Just received City of Livonia Spring News. There will be a lot of road construction going on this year on major roads such as 6 mile and 7 mile. Hopefully, the work will be done before school starts for those who may be driving their kids to school if the LI goes through. What a nightmare!!!

CFLF includes citizens from all over the city. If you were at the St. Mary's meeting 2 weeks ago, you would have heard that almost all the schools were represented by liasons, and members of the core group of parents who are meeting endlessly to stop this from happening. While CFLF may have started out with only a couple of schools on board, it has snowballed to what it is today, hundreds of volunteers.

I would think that if the membership represented any equal distribution of LPS families, the vote may have been different. I would be amazed to see anything but a vast majority of CFLF members coming from a small number of schools.

I may be the only one with a sign in my neighborhood, but we have enough volunteers gathering recall petition signatures in the Adams area that each of us only need to take one or 2 streets. We are sweeping the entire square mile in no time!

Some of them come from schools that will close, others will not. I do not think this is concentrated in one area. As Larry Naser said at the BOE meeting, this thing is bigger than we think.

It's unfortunate that people are still not getting that this is bigger than one or two schools still complaining as I have heard. Try over 500 people at a community meeting a few weeks back. Try 100's of volunteer's having petitions signed. While you would like to think this is only Taylor familes as you said you could not be more inaccurate!
