(Recent information received from several sources by the Gazette Blog suggest that there is a lot more to the 4-year university story than the Payson Roundup is reporting. The following from Rim Country resident Don Evans also suggests possible conflicts of interest. Anybody with corroborating information is welcome to submit it to peoplesgazette@gmail.com)

FYI- A different article comment post of mine under the Jan 26
charter school article "Brand New Buildings, Cheerful Children Roundup
reporter tours American Leadership Academy’s brand new school in Queen
Creek" was deleted by John Naughton for being in very poor taste? Of
course Mr. Naughton the publisher, may do as he wishes with his
newspaper. He never mentions publicly that he is an active board member
of the MHD Foundation. He serves along with Mayor Kenny Evans and
Councilwoman Sue Connell. This board is the current primary proponent,
planning, and funding source for the proposed University project and
supporting the ALA Charter School Plan. All the other alphabet soup
boards are subordinate to this one.

Well, it's about time the private cabal and nexus of special RCEA,
RCEA, and MHA board members came out from under their desks. Most of us
must have missed all the so called public forums on the University
project? They inform you what they are going to do, but you have no say
in it. Shielding Payson Taxpayers, now that's a hoot. Who do you think
is going to get the bill for what Mr. White has stated. (article
comments section) New roads, existing road expansion, traffic, water and
delivery system, increased Police, Fire, Medical services, road
maintenance, etc? Yeah right, the University private spin off business's
will fund all of it. The Payson Mayor is a voting board member on the
MHA Foundation, a University project funding source. Payson Councilwoman
Connell, appointed by the Mayor to serve on the same MHA Board and the
RCEA Board. And they will be having to vote on University/Charter school
Plans and private business development requests (zoning/permits) in
their official Town Government positions? Then there are the two RCEA
board members who are not even Payson residents, voting and making
decisions on what is best for Payson and what it's priorities should
be??? You know, things like infrastructure needs, future Payson
commercial business developments, Payson Town Service increase needs.
Why do they have any say on what occurs within our Town limits? Can you
say Star Valley wants a piece of the action? My opinion.

Being that it the letter was in poor taste, publishing here is a good fit.
By what conceivable definition can you say that the letter was in poor taste, courageous Mr. Anonymous. I challenge you to respond, but I know you can't. You don't have the cajones to use your name and you don't have a leg to stand on. What our sources, impeccable sources I might add, are telling us is being perpetrated on Rim Country citizens is absolutely appalling. There are people who want to take this story to New Times. You won't get away with it.
Sharpen your reading comprehension skills. I never made that claim. You printed it.
