Every so often, we like to take a stroll down short-term memory lane and update issues we've written about in the past.
Way back on April 4th, when we were just a baby blog, we talked about the current asthetic state of the Embarq building at the entry to downtown Kissimmee. We're encouraged to see that the building is now surrounded by temporary construction fence, suggesting that some long-needed facade work is imminent.
On May 17th, we discussed the commission appointments to the Kissimmee Charter Review Board, and expressed disappointment that the majority were former city commissioners. We learned this week that former commissioner Steve Burke would not be serving, and he will be replaced by former commissioner Scott Brooks. Anyone want to start a pool on which former commissioner is warming up in the bullpen in the event of another vacancy?
Throughout May, we had discussions over the School District's proposed use of the old Sports Authority building on 192 as a special use educational facility. We learned this week that (at least some of the members of the) School Board are amazed that they would need to pay rezoning application fees to the city.
Hmmm...wonder what will happen when they demand their free building permit? Oh, and School Board, just so you know now, the city will have a Fire Fee shortly for properties in the city.

Is this the same school board that expects the city of Saint Cloud to build a road to a new school that the school board failed to secure the necessary paperwork for in the first place? The puppet theater could have loads of fun with this group--lots of material here to work with also!!!
The Osceola School Board is not back to debating the whole single member districts issues again. The said part is they will not even debate this issue, they will just hide from it like the County did.
