Dear Editor: I have noticed that from time to time, you run a column that is titled "The people want to know." I would like to submit the following questions in hopes that the right public officials will answer them. 1. I read where Hugo schools are going to re-open what used to be Eugene Field school because the newer elementary is too full. It is my understanding that they are moving grades 4-5 to Eugene Field and I don't understand this move. The newer school was specifically designed with gymnasium, bath rooms and playground for grades 4-5, while Eugene Field is configured for K-1. Also, the Eugene Field facilities (dining, stage, library, playground) are more ideally suited for K-1. Wouldn't it make more sense to move K-1 back over there? Did the school board make this decision or the Superintendent, and if so, what was their rationale? Question 2: As I walk around town, I see water leaking in streets and from fire hydrants. One hydrant (at the corner of N. 8th and Victor) has been leaking for more than a year. These leaks clearly add up to an enormous loss of water, which the council alleges is expensive to treat. Who at the City is in charge of these kinds of repairs?
