Who would you like people to go to? The BOE doesn't return phone calls, emails.

The BOE is more show than substance because they do not have much in real power.
And I find the same problem every where of people afraid to say anything. Fear is usually a lack of faith.
The fact is that you are not telling what your complaint is either.
If you mean you object to the BOE pushing stuff under the carpet, and the BOE not taking suggestions, and etc., then that is because the BOE is a weak part of the system.
I use to give written statements and complaints to the BOE and that gets even less attention, one has to speak at the public meetings and then they only give about 5 minutes to each speaker, and the person has to come back to next public meeting and speak up again and again.
You too can run for a seat on the BOE your-self, and do it yourself.
