My latest batch of Freedom of Information Law requests at Amagansett School begin to confirm the majority of details: billing, conversations, dates of events with the school attorneys from Ingerman Smith. If you were unaware, even Amagansett School attorney Sophia Terrassi left the firm in late June.
Matters appear to circle around a 2022 event and filing. We’ll reference this individual in the future as “Hollywood.”
Is it also odd that Amagansett had a School Board meeting on July 3? Isn’t the first meeting of a new school year to be the reorganization meeting? That is to be held between July 1 and 15, when July 1 marks the new school year.
Both Wayne Gauger and Kristen Peterson hadn’t taken any new oaths of office at this meeting. Perhaps the meeting should be null and voided. Only one way to do that now.
Still here.
