Forest Lake Schools / Charges fly at board meeting
The battle royal continued Thursday night between two factions on the Forest Lake school board and their supporters. Several area residents chided the five-member majority that censured fellow members David Gay and Eric Langness last month. Board members accused Gay and Langness of violating the state's data practices act by complaining about Superintendent Lynn Steenblock's performance during a board meeting Jan. 3. Gay made a motion to explore procedures for disciplining the superintendent over how the district handles background checks. Langness seconded Gay's motion. Wyoming resident Jim Banta blamed three members specifically for mischaracterizing Gay's motion and misinterpreting Minnesota's data practices act. "Gentleman, these transgressions are very, very serious," Banta said. "You now must provide answers."
