The opinion
LaVECCHIA, J.,
concurring.
I concur in the disposition of the Court. I write separately to register my objection to the majority’s discussion of fiscal responsibility for the costs of implementing a plan to alleviate racial imbalance in Dwight Morrow. That issue is not before us and was not briefed by the parties. Resolution of the issue is obviously unnecessary to our decision. Moreover, on the merits, I do not regard the general statements in the State Board’s 1990 decision concerning the Commissioner’s and State Board’s power and responsibility to direct such measures as are necessary to remedy segregation in the schools as pronouncements on responsibility for the cost of such remedial actions. With that limitation, I join in the judgment of the Court.
