St. George - so what are the chances it will actually happen?

Serious question. Fill me in please.

The city is happening, the school system likely has a lot of litigation in its future. If I were betting, 3-5 years before the school system is established, if it doesn’t get killed in the courts.

It has already happened in the eyes of the law. Now they have to build out the infrastructure. That’ll take a while to sort out.

What needs to happen is that there is 5 years of revenue that needs to be accounted for. If not, a lawsuit for back pay should be in order is how I feel.. However, the law may be different but that’s a lot of money at stake and could jump start the new city with funding in several projects.

as i understand it, its a done deal, its settled
now they are in the process of starting up the St. George services they need and there will be court fights about refunding taxes stolen from St. George during this whole ordeal

Broomestown and LaMont "I Knew Him When He was a HORRIBLE School Admin" Cole have asked for a rehearing with the LSC.

It has happened. They followed the law and the lawsuit that was holding it up is now over. It’s a city.

It’s a very slow process from now to finally having a mayor and board to run the city. I think Landry will appoint a mayor and board for the city and then from there move forward

In regards to the school district, what stops a Bernhard or someone like him from building a privately owned school system and leasing it back to St George to keep it out the courts?

I read this thread subject and assumed it was a bump from 2017.
Wow what kind of stupid pills is OP taking the La supreme court ruled in favor of it almost a week ago.

I honestly thought it was dead after BR targeted annexing critical commercial areas, making the math of the tax base not work out

The city of St George, I believe, is now deemed to have been formed as of the date of the passing election (there may be some administrative set up period). The governor will appoint initial elected officials, who then need to stand up a city government which will take some time.
