Pettingill meeting Wednesday
Tuesday, September 30, 2008
LEWISTON - A public meeting will be held Wednesday, Oct. 1, to hear what Pettingill Elementary School neighborhood residents think should happen to the old school when it's vacated.
Rules say that in order for the building to remain with the Lewiston School Department it must be used for an educational purpose, Superintendent Leon Levesque said. Otherwise, the building will have to be given to the city.
The meeting will be held from 6:30 to 8 p.m. in the Pettingill School gym.
The new school, the Raymond A. Geiger Elementary School, will open in the fall of 2009.
It is being built because Pettingill is too small and too old. Part of it was built in 1929, a wing was added in the 1950s. The $21.9 million school was approved overwhelmingly by voters in a special election in February 2007.

Think about it,
How about letting it go over to the City of Lewiston and then they could get a cut in their payment to the County for Offices. Sheriffs' office moldy and crowded? Well move everyone to the school, not jail but offices could be used and a dispatch center. Perhaps it is too close to the new school for undesired pausible felons to be frequenting. Well then I guess if the city takes over they could always put up another parking garage.
