I agree that they need to move the Utah School for Deaf and Blind school up to the top of the list. These kids need a place to call their own. They need to be able to meet and make friends with kids that they will know will be going to same school as themselves every year instead of not knowing if the friend they made that year will be in the same school as themselves the following year. I know what it is like cause I attended the Utah School for the Deaf and Blind for three years and left after going to three diffence schools for each year. They helped me while I was there, but I needed a steady place that I could attend year after year to develope friendships. Instead of wondering if I was going to be there next year and if my new friend will be there as well. Use some of that surpulus money to get it done instead of seeing which one of your buddies you can help this year Reps. and Senators!!

I don't live too far from gooding and in Idaho they are thinking of shutting down the deaf and blind school. I played basketball against them before.

I have noticed that the various Government agencies here in Utah, be they State, County, and especially Salt Lake, are willing to do almost nothing for the handicapped. They will browbeat private entities to do it, but to actually put up public funds to make minor changes for the benefit of those with disabilities, it's not gonna happen unless Federal regulations demand it. They do away with the accessable parking everytime there is an event held at City Hall. Mom Really appriciates that. It is a chore getting over the curb and half a block to the doors. Three spots half a block from the door isn't acceptable for any private event. In fact the City would shut them down or fine them a small fortune. The City can ignore all these rules. The Housing built with public money by the various publicly funded agencies, Habitat, NHS, CDC, RDA and the rest is mostly just like what Ivory or Celebrity would build. But somehow these guys are providing a public service. Please, don't make me laugh. They are merely justifying their own existance at the taxpayers expense.
