New Orleans School Board members sue president to force hiring of
New Orleans CityBusiness, Jun 6, 2005 by Staff
More than a week after four Orleans Parish School Board members voted to hire an outside firm to take over the district's finances, the same Board members voted Tuesday to sue President Torin Sanders to force him to sign the agreement to hire the firm. Sanders wrote a letter to the state Board of Ethics last Tuesday, saying the 4-3 vote to hire New York consulting firm Alvarez & Marsal was a breach of the Board's fiduciary responsibility.
Lourdes Moran, Phyllis Landrieu, Jimmy Fahrenholtz and Una Anderson voted to hire the firm; Sanders, Cynthia Cade and Heidi Lovett Daniels voted against it. Sanders said he wanted to wait to sign the agreement until the state Board of Ethics approved the deal.
