I think we have to make a decision on the middle school. And it appears we have a vehicle to finance it.

The worst thing is, this caused the community to make a decision based on information that has a quicksand foundation,

When you start getting 10 percent cuts on top on 23 percent cuts, that's when the decision-making gets difficult.

It's a decision we made internally that we needed to do. It needs more explaining, but I just feel with respect to everyone involved, it's just better not to.

AWB is disappointed by the decision.

AWB is disappointed by the decision. AWB is determined to take whatever steps are necessary to rebuild its reputation with all customers, growers and shareholders.
