Keller ISD trustee’s private meeting on LGBT policy canceled, concerns over “trolls”, “these people”

A private meeting scheduled by Keller ISD trustee Jo Lynn Haussmann for Monday, Aug. 24, to discuss the district’s LGBT protections has been canceled, according to a screenshot shared with the Voice.

The meeting, originally scheduled at 7 p.m. at the Spring Creek BBQ in Keller, was described as a private gathering to discuss the proposed policy changes protecting LGBT employees and students from harassment and discrimination. But corporate concern over consequences of the event prompted its cancellation, the source said.

The Voice has left a message with Spring Creek BBQ’s corporate communications office.

On Facebook, however, Haussmann was concerned about finding a safe space for opponents of the measure to meet. Ordinance proponents were everywhere, she suggested, and could crash the event.
