Bob Norman of Local 10 news reports official school board source says Board Member Jennifer Gottlieb will resign tomorrow.

Sources tell RED BROWARD the reasons will be typical Broward fun and excitement.

Jen Jen has been absent from recent School Board meetings.

BrowardBeat.com reached Gottlieb’s husband, Judge Ken Gottlieb; he said he knows what his wife is planning but will let her announce it.

This follows on the heels of the resignation of Board member Dave Thomas.

Thomas and Gottlieb are both Democrats.

Jim is glad he's outta there!

Bob Norman is teasing his report set to air tonight on WPLG/MIAMI LOCAL 10 News:

Here’s what a Broward County School Board member said during an ethics workshop in January when new rules were proposed regarding elected officials’ relatives.”I got lots of relatives, so I don’t know what they’re all doing all the time,” the board member said. “So, you know, they could be having businesses all over the state.”Well it turns out that board member does indeed have two relatives — a nephew and great niece — involved in school board business. One of them even gave the board member/aunt a $500 campaign contribution.Is it believable that this board member really didn’t know her relatives were getting board business?You be the judge. The piece is airing tonight on Local 10 at 11 o’clock.
