High Pressure Gas line.
20 Years Old pipeline? Rusty? Damaged?

Please phone/contact your School Board and require that they withdraw this
plan and start over to find a safe site for our children and teachers who
will attend Options High.

Also, contact your City Council Member and ask them to vote NO on the street
/ alley vacation plan. This will also block this ill advised siting plan for
Options. Email: ccm...@cob.org

　
Construction Bids are to be opened May 12, a Public Hearing is May 18th!

Construction scheduled to begin in June 2016.

Why the rush for this terrible and dangerous site? 2015 Franklin Street.
