renovation costs “are severely understat-
ed. We estimate the renovation could be
as high as almost $600 million” for the
east side to bring its schools on par with
those on the west side.
Cullimore also said Waddoupsʼ
numbers appear to take into account
only a portion of the property tax bill
levied on a home and therefore are
misleading. “You have got to get to
what the real numbers are.”
Huntsman has said he will call a
special legislative session if there is
consensus among legislators that it is
necessary. Speaker of the House Greg
Curtis (R-Sandy) said he doesnʼt sup-
port the idea and he doesnʼt think there
is a consensus.
