##VIDEO ID:4VKp3nNaqIk## we started to keep people on time here thank you guys for coming uh I'm Jeff Samson the superintendent of the schools I'm going to make sure that I don't get any feedback here if you can't hear me just let me know thank you for attending tonight's operating Levy presentation and we will get started so on November 5th voters in the Canon Falls Area School District will be asked to consider an operating Levy to increase the revenue by $750 per pupil unit uh with adjustments for inflation for each of the next 10 years to support the day-to-day operations of the school district The increased Levy would bring in an additional $850,000 per year to the school district and just so that we're all understanding uh schools get their revenue and their income from cuple units and so each student that we have is equated uh with dollars an operating Levy is the primary way school districts can increase Revenue funds generated through an operating Levy can be used to fund day-to-day operations of the school district the most recent school building bonds can only be used for the facility Improvement projects that were included in the ballot question hence bonds are for buildings and levies are for Learning and that's a common question that comes up with a lot of taxpayers is didn't we just give you a whole bunch of money well the answer is yes but the more specific answer is that was for building purposes and so in the in the financial world of schools we cannot cross our operating dollars with our bonds and actually we can we can use our operating dollars for bonds but that's not a good practice whatsoever ever uh for for building purposes but we can definitely cannot use cannot use Bond money for operating day-to-day pieces so why is there a need for more funding over the past 20 years the state of Minnesota which does not have an inflationary Factor built into their pure per pupil funding for scho school districts uh over the past 20 years that funding is not kept up with inflation so when you look at this chart there's a gap between the dotted red line and the solid black line the dotted red line is where we are at currently and the black line is where we should be at with inflation and that's roughly $1,356 per pupil that we are currently short in all school districts in Minnesota because this is a Statewide chart not just in Canon Falls uh I've been saying for quite some time the the state is no longer a reliable um funding partner for schools and I will stand by that and we have evidence to show that over the past 10 years or so um the average inflationary piece or cost to districts is roughly 2% to 3% increase and if you've been following how much we've been getting from the state legislature as an increase in a good year we've been getting 2% and so not only does do we not keep up some years I mean a couple years ago what was inflation 7% and so we had to eat all of that inflation we did not get that brought back to us and so that comes out of our undesignated F which is our savings account and we have to make up for in other ways so the big story here inflation has been um a big piece of why we're going out and asking uh the Canon Falls residents for um help in rectifying the situation when you multiply the $1,356 by approximately the just over $1,000 that we get that's quite a bit of money over that time frame that school districts are missing out on why the need for more funding um Governor walls during the last bial legislation couple years ago talked about the historic amount of funding that schools received and in that historical funding they gave us 4% and 2% but what he doesn't tell you is that a lot of that 4% and a lot of that 2% is coming in in one hand and going out in another hand in what's called unfunded mandates which some of the ones that we have are listed up here um there's additional course requirements uh that were put on schools that will have to add FTE or make adjustments to our current FTE which means maybe cutting courses to make room for the required courses uh the Paid Family Medical Leave Act which not is just for schools but it's for all businesses in the state that we had to start accounting for we did not get extra funding for that we had to pay that out of pocket unemployment insurance for hourly employees this is basically over the summer for the for the employees that are not working during the summertime they can now apply for unemployment it does not go through the regular employment um pathway way if you will uh school districts have to pay out a certain portion of that uh to unemployment out of their own uh bank accounts the state did give funding for this but is wul short they thought that the funding would last 3 years it's probably not even going to last two years just an example of that our third quarter bill that we got yesterday for unemployment which included this past summer was for $50,000 um this year we may get some of that back but I can pretty much guarantee you next year in year three of this program we probably won't and that'll continue forward because it isn't stable uh there's additional discipline requirements that is taxing on our employees there's also mandated teacher trainings uh implemented through the read act that again we got some for but it is woly short of what was actually needed for full implementation that we'll have to make up for the district has had a growing deficit each year uh or at least every year since I've been here we've been making cuts to to accommodate for those during Co we did receive Esser funding which help offset some of those costs during those school years and we were able to uh balance our budget but those are gone now uh we have been using some of our savings account as well during that time frame and these are no longer an option at this point our undesignated fund balance is roughly around 3% uh which is our savings account if you will and our Auditors would like to see it up around 12 to to 16% our current school policy is at 8 to 12% and so we are still striving to get to that point but it is awfully tough sleding to get us to that point to be physically healthy so what have we done already to reduce expenses uh We've aligned teaching and support staff positions to our current enrollment we've increased class sizes by doing this we've reduced apartment and building budgets and delayed maintenance projects and facility updates over the years basically it's robbing Peter to pay Paul and some of these expenses so how do we compare to our neighbors hopefully all you can see that pretty well the districts on the bottom part of this chart are the districts that either touch us geographically or are in our HBO conference so some of them are our size and some of them are not and they probably touch touch us that they are not for example Hastings and Redwing and Northfield but if you look at this chart we are right here and this is total taxes on $300,000 piece of property um what the school district is going out for the operating Levy is based on referendum market value which is your house garage and one acre or the total cost of what your business is valued at so those are the the numbers that you're going to be using when we look at tax impact charts you can see Canon Falls compared to other districts total taxes based on a $300,000 house if you can see my cursor up here we're in the bottom third of our neighbors for funding uh some of these districts are either going out for an operating Levy this year or a bond uh this year and so some of these numbers may actually rise as well but these are the current numbers that we have available if we take a $300,000 house tax impact and add it to what we currently have here the $300,000 and I'll show you the chart here in just a second but the $300,000 uh house garage in one acre looks at about a $216 increase to your taxes and so if you add that on to what we currently pay that would still put us mid-range almost up to the top thir but still not obviously up in this area here back in March those of you that live in the district you should have received a community survey um when we knew that we were going to start having budgetary issues coming out of Co we and with our current operating Levy expiring we knew that we're going to have to have Community input before we went out uh to ask the community for more money so the school district sent out a survey in March and we got 992 responses back which is a really good response rate from the community and these numbers you know over the next couple of slides mayor may not represent anything to you um but basically we asked two important questions would you support uh an increase to an operating Levy that was question one and if if if it was yes how much would you support and then from there there was Data gathered on uh what the results would look like and just so that you're aware um the the survey is skewed toward people that don't have kids in the district so 75% of the respondents we took their answers of the people people that don't have kids uh in the school district but still live in the district if that makes sense either they haven't had kids yet or they've already uh aged out their kids in the school so 75% of the respondents came from that pool and then 25% came from the parents in the district so that we could have some good factual data and in the end the district residents C that they would support a $750 increase with inflation at about a 57% rate which we felt very comfortable with and the board felt comfortable with and that's kind of where what got us to this point in time and I'm up here giving you a presentation on the election coming up so what does the ask on Election Day or before if you're doing early balloting Canon Falls Area School District voters will be asked to support an additional $750 per people funding operating Levy and this the additional operating funds is to help balance the budget and to allow the school district to retain existing staff meaning um we're in a spot right now where we need to be competitive with our staffing um obviously if you've paid attention to other businesses maybe even in your home own jobs that you're working at you know the price of employees are going up and we need to remain competitive not only with the large schools that are to the north of us but also to the the south of us the smaller schools are in that competitive range also we need to be able to attract new talent and also retain the staff that we currently have in value as well we need to maintain our programs and services for students again this is a competitive nature and we'll talk a little bit more about that tonight in the in the board meeting as I got some exciting news for the community of Canon Falls um but we need to maintain what we are doing we we feel good about the program that we have here it's been successful over the years and I think that's really what attracts people to come to Canon Falls and stay here we want to ensure that our class sizes are conducive to learning and we also want to uh be preventative in maintaining our district facilities and equipment so what is the ballot question so the ballot question is going to be in italics here but the district is asking voters to increase the existing Levy by $750 per pupil to a total of $1,250 per pupil our current operating Levy which was passed 20 years ago at $500 of where it's currently sitting at um is going to be expiring here over the next year and that amount is not increased in 20 years and and it is not tied to inflation either so the ballot question is going to re read that we are going to revoke $500 the $500 current Levy and replace it with a $1,250 per pupil Levy with inflation hence the $750 increase and by voting yes on this ballot you are voting for a property tax increase so what does a tax impact look like again this is based off of referendum market value which is house garage and one acre this is not a bond so has nothing to do with homesteaded acreage or non-homesteaded acreage for Farmers this is just purely house garage in one acre uh the example that we used in those bar graphs is right here the $300,000 property value and the $216 increase if you remember that so depending on what your situation is or what your build your business is valued at this would be the approximate tax increase that we were talking about for you so what happens if the referendum does it pass uh as of right now our best guess is that the school board is going to have to look at about $500,000 in reductions for the 25 26 school year and then make probably another uh evaluation of where we're at after that first year to see if there's any more need for [Music] reductions uh the impact to students will be tremendous obviously and probably to our staff as well it will involve increasing class sizes further reducing student services and academic programs eliminating some elected courses and advanced placement opportunities reducing athletic Fine Arts and co-curricular offerings increasing fees to participate in athletic and Fine Arts and clubs obviously reducing staff if we're if we're increasing class sizes reducing transportation services or delaying maintenance projects those would be all on the table for the board to decide on how they would want to cut this that was a lot of information in a short amount of time you can take a minute or two here to digest it but we do uh need to keep moving forward here if you guys have any questions Jack I wouldn't I wouldn't expect anything else I'll so I'm still working on market share question I did get a hold of the State Department of Education statistics and I'll probably give you something at your November or December board meeting which I find that answering that question very frustrating but help me answer this one for someone who looks at the total pie for Education we got an $82 billion Federal Department of Education which Minnesota share if you just divide it by 50 should be 10 billion or 1 billion 1.6 or so we got a state budget that's going 2.2 and I know that only about 700,000 of it actually goes to schools but we have that budget and then we have our bonds for the building and then we have our taxes and we have our operating level when is it enough and I'm going to answer that with you and you and you know this already Jack I'm I'm pretty sure you do um and I and I even said this before he even came in the states no longer are reliable funding partner yep and they're pushing more and more funding to local entities they are for whatever reason whatever the the politics are behind it but they are and it's showing and and there's you know tons of schools that are going to be going off for levies and there's going to be more and more schools going into statutory operating debt which we don't want to hit obviously so but anyway so the followup is is is the school board taking an active rule to campaign I mean the trifecta of power was not good for the state in my opinion and I'm questioning I don't think was good for schools I me they had great publicity about all this funding and they stuck the a knife in the back so I would hope the school board would start saying to people and help get people to change that I already know that the ones that represent this area have your ear and are trying to do your bidding but when they're in the minority they cannot do anything we can only move as far fast as the state is going but then also there's the employee population which also has the largest lobbyist in the state is their Union and so I kind of think at some point the line has to be drawn and I know this isn't the topic I've already had a great discussion with lukee on this one the title line thing drives me up a wall and the line has to be drawn on some of these things and regrettably finances might be the only place where someone like me can make that known and I know schools are important you are the economic you are very critical for the financial well-being of my personal asset I understand that but there's also a limit sure thank you done I can't I follow Jack don't I yeah he's too tall isn't he all right Don Lanning um for anybody that may not know me I'm running for Schoolboard um a couple of follow-up questions so Jack kind of hit on one of them um talking about the unfunded mandates that you guys have been burdened with yeah understandably so out of the 700 approximately about a th000 students in the school $750 per student um out of that $750,000 ask how much of that can be attributed to unfunded mandates I know you said that right now you don't know the status because of the you know did jeck share that email with you yep he did so I I got that you know unemployment you don't know know about the safe and sick time you don't know about I don't know if you were here but early on in the discussion I said that we did we got our third quarter unemployment bill for the hourly that's one of the unemployment mandates M and that was $50,000 just for this quarter okay and that doubled what it was last year at this thing okay and then free lunches did you get did the schools get any kind of assistance when the state the state gives us M correct Lori per pup allotment for lunch she's our food service director and so they give us a per pup allotment and again that's only as good until you know um you know every two years when the legislature you know comes back in and gets voted back in so that may change here in a couple years or may not and they may have enough money I don't know okay um and then dad kind of also hit hit on the um the Title Nine which is kind of outside of this but um the as far as like so the state funded so do you have any other ideas on how much these other unfunded mandates cost I mean there was 65 of them so I me we're talking about I think we gave you the highlighted ones of the ones that we could guess at you know in Jack's email yeah and and the other ones you know when we talk about uh uh a regular class that a new class that's being um required I don't think that was in that one yep um ethic studies class so it depends on no it wasn't an Ethics n it was a finance class is one of them okay um we we need to hire staff for that but more than likely we have to fit it into what we currently have have for Staffing CU we're not going to find a one class or a two class per day teacher there just isn't enough teachers out there that a license for that and so we got to fit it within our current FTE which may mean we need to offer less classes in that specific area which is more than likely business and finance okay and then so there's I mean there's a cost to that so if we have to hire a two a two section teacher so you take 40% of their salary and the cost of it okay and then you know some of the options that you were mentioning that you know if if the L doesn't pass um you know the effects on students some of it was delayed maintenance what kind of Maintenance what kind of delayed maintenance are you know on the one example the first thing that popped in my head is let's say that we had to change filters every 6 months in our hbac system or we may have to move that to a year and so is that good on our hbac system probably not so that takes down some of the longterm you know how long it lasts but we still need to save money somewhere and it's almost kicking the can down the road if you will the discussion on the football field is that like part of on the table or will this be covered with that's on the back burner for a long while okay I would say at this point because that is something that I've had several people ask me about so yeah all right um okay I think that's it for now thanks all right thanks Dan anybody else yes hello my name is that um when you're talking about the inflation being added who says that uh that's just what the market economy sets I guess there isn't anybody that sets that spe specifically when you look at price increases we're in a market economy so if there's more demand for products it'll probably press up the price quite a bit like during Co there was short supplies and so the prices went up further and so therefore inflation that's that's the inflation piece to that so it's a it would go to 1250 so in 2 years from now you guys could decide it could be 3,000 no no it's set by the consumer price index so there would be a lag so whatever the pr the consumer like at the P this year the Consumer Price Index for 2024 2025 whenever it kicked in whatever the national or the I shouldn't say the national the state Consumer Price Index would be for that year that would be the amount that it would be increased and that varies um back and forth so the last one wasn't done for 20 years how long would this one be step before it would this L is for 10 years with one Ral with a Ral yes with the ability of one yes no I I I found that out that that isn't true we've already used our one renewal and we can't use it anymore for each L the the next one no this is we can differ on this but I've heard from our lawyer and in from the School Board Association that we cannot use it more than once and so the school is already use their Levy incre or the the levy board authority so this Levy would be for 10 years all right then you had your respondent breakdown like um how many the respondents that voted yes don't pay taxes uh so the data was separated out from the survey you're talking about the the survey data they only use the people that live within the district yes but you can live in the district and don't pay taxes because you rent oh so what's what's the respond that said yes that don't pay taxes I have no idea about that um cuz that's like because everybody that lives in the district has a vote now if they rent obviously the landlord that probably lives in the district or out of the district would probably raise their rent to meet the taxes right possibly right so that's the that's the choice of the owner of that piece of property and there's a lot of land owners in the district that aren't allowed to vote they don't what they aren't allowed to vote because they don't live in the district they own in the district but don't live in the district right and that's that's the way that's the way voting works that's that that should be information of how many people don't actually pay tax that you guys should be looking at too cuz I can say yes all I want if it's not going to affect know right but it may like I was saying it may affect you down the road if the property owner that you live on in District raises your taxes whether they live in the district or not and then you said one thing that you guys would look at is you want to have good class sizes but I have an writing from you that class sizes will stay they're not you don't have intention of going smaller you'll keep them within your guidelines right so why would you need to hire more staff then if you're not going to make them smaller no I think in here says that we're going to maintain what we have and you want to hire new staff too you said I don't think we had hire in any of our slides but why why are we looking at going higher in classes and not lower if the referendum fails we'll cut Staffing if it but you said if it passes you have no intention to going smaller that classes will stay within the guidelines right so we would retain existing Staffing retain exive staff but you're not going to make conducive class sizes I'm not sure where this is going Seth you're saying you want you're going to use your guidelines that you have for class sizes right we're we're within our guidelines right now but you have no intention of going smaller than the guidelines yes for classes that were smaller in previous years that you You' almost doubled in class size this year you have no intention of going smaller we won't go under our guidelines cuz that's not fiscally responsible you were last year so why why did that change this year then maybe in a grade level or two but so yeah so what is your ask Seth why if you had class sizes at a size last year why did you almost double them this year for I don't know if we doubled them pretty close to D I have to look into that but yeah so you want to you want to make good class sizes but you're not going to go smaller right I think the idea is to retain our existing staff and class sizes that we currently have if we would if we would have asked for more money we could have looked at lowering class sizes and then how often do you get paid the per student fee from the state how often do we get paid per peoples from the state yeah is it a is it a one some payment or no we get paid throughout the year throughout the year y so if we pull kids out and what have been five rivers you'll lose that now yeah that's the way it works so if we if we lose a student tomorrow we wouldn't get the funding for the rest of the year but if we gain a student then we would all right anybody else so I checked you out you're right what Jack you can't say in the public meeting I'm right the minute if it's been done once if it's done previously Ral under this subdivision so they only get to do this once the statute and then it has the statute number if anyone's M to play this ball game at home statute 126 C7 sub 9 okay Mark that in a minutes I make sure that Jack said that I was right if you used it once hi Don quick question a couple years ago right we passed the technology funding yep so but that was a bond not a levy and how could that be if bonds are for buildings and levies are for learning help me so so that's a capital Bond and you're right about that that's kind of the exception the school district was using operating dollars for technology and um there's a capital Bond or a tech Levy they call it which can be confusing from the what I just told you but we can only use those dollars on technology piece and so I understand what you're saying but overall you know bonds are for buildings and levies are for learning except for in [Music] technology I know it's welcome to school Finance I don't think you want to go any further in the weeds I'm good yes sir one more question then we got to kind of get going here for the board meet hello uh I'm like to the parties who may have covered this um but with the The Levy some of that money is going to go towards these mandates without funding I'm guessing I mean it'll it'll mix into our general fund and we have to pay for those out of that okay I know there's like 80 things the state uh mandated is there like a website or somewhere I can go to see what those mandates are you know I haven't specifically known of a website other than the information I get from the School Board Association or from our association Jack do you have I talked to two state senators and three state reps and I still don't have us so it is I they're out of session so they're not maybe on top of their game but it is I'm working I I would I would go to the state government website they have to be on there somewhere and you may not like the long list of reading that you're going to have to do to find those um but they're on there somewhere I wouldn't go to any left leaning or right leaning website just go right to the source of the state and though they should give it to you straightforward from that so all right thanks all right thank you all right okay we'll call this meeting to order as is our custom We Begin each meeting with the Pledge of Allegiance so would you please stand remove your head here and face the pledge we say the Pledge iedge Al to the flag United States America indivisible andice Clinton is not available for us tonight but we do have a quum um Jeff do you have anything in addition to I don't have any other additions now okay I would look for a motion to approve the agenda as shown I'll make a motion Jolene on the motion seconded by on second Katie on the second any other discussion all in favor of the approval of the agenda say I I I opposed that is carried we have no scheduled presenters um we break down in the subcommittees um for various items like Finance facility we meet on an intermittent basis for all of these and uh my question would be have any of you uh have a meeting no committee meetings at all uh I did have one uh higho leag meeting where we um walk through some changes that they're working through as far who's covered guys might have to help you here notes but we the the schools were asked to vote on a change to the Constitution through our State High School league rep in accordance with the superintendent the ad and so the issuing question is currently the State High School league covers 10th grade through 12th grade for catastrophic liability insurance and they want to lower that down to 9th grade to match the rest of the things like eligibility for sports is 9 through 12 and there are other items that is 9 through 12 and allows for more consistency the cost increase to the State High School league for that is $40,000 for the year and it will be covered by the State High School league with no cost to the district and so we did end up voting yes on this because we feel it's important to protect our nth grade nth graders as well yeah in that in that meeting it was pretty much unanimous of this is a good thing to do been doing this a while ago and most schools have operated kind of that way anyway um so more procedural item okay questions for Luke moving on uh administrative board reports uh you've all got in your packets the elementary the Middle School High School Technology notes from the uh head of those departments uh as well as Community the community activities and the souit um Jeff do you have anything to add to any of this I I do um just a couple of quick things here uh part of our goal is to have me keep working with the city council and being involved with what they're doing and have them involved with us as much as possible uh I've been working with the Eda quite a bit on uh telling them our story and how we need more butts and seats has always been my my phrase if you will um and they've been doing great with getting a couple of housing additions going and and really listening to what our needs are not only at the school probably in town uh I went to a work session last week of the Eda and the city council and they've had some exciting news coming up um we are getting a quick trip which is good it's going to be at the site of the old nursing home out on the highway there and so that's slated to be in uh 2026 to be completed and then uh on a more school related note I know quick trips are exciting for everybody probably here but uh uh in probably more related to the school there is a huge data center that is coming to town on the north side of town this city is going to be looking at annexing property from Randolph Township and it's and I'll show you a map here might be the best way to do it the company is called track and they put in infrastructure for companies like Google meta Amazon um among these other huge corporations and basically what they do is they house their computers where when you go to look up something on Amazon you route through one of these data centers and then uh pick your thing that you want and it shows up at your house the next day at these are I know it works that way in my house um so anyway so this company and they're based here's some of the the states that they're already in and they're looking to get into Minnesota and Canon Falls which they are going to be doing um basically they provide the in infrastructure for these large companies to bring them in for the the data and the water and the electricity and all that other good stuff that they come in and then those companies build uh vertically up and so there is attractive land here uh Hancock concrete is out here and there's an inlet if you look at this is uh and forgive me I'm still relatively new to Cannon Falls but as far as this is 80 86 and this is this Housing Development along 52 here the cornfield that's right here would have an inlet into the into this property right here coming off of uh I guess Fourth Street Main Street whatever it is on the north side of town F Street okay wherever it is does everybody know where I'm talking about stre good all right um and then all this property is going to be built up with data centers and if you seen the one in Rosemont that's being built yes that is huge and so that is what they're looking at building here or they will be building something of similar size to yes I mean this is 256 acres of land that they're going to be filling up and the reason why it's important for us this technically you know this little piece of Inlet right here is in our school district and the rest of this is in Randolph which is kind of IM material I mean it's it's good for the Randolph voter or the Randolph District residents because they lower their tax impact on some of the operating there's really no money exchanging hand or be being given to schools but I think we we have a really big chance here to get the employees that will work here to come to Cannon Falls and bring their families here and I think we're well positioned with that over what's happening over the past couple of years with some of these housing developments going in and providing that piece of it as well so I think we're well positioned here to at least get some families to take a look at us we still need to be competitive and upfront with what we're doing with are programming that's why again it's important to have that operating liing uh to show that we are a high functioning school district and we are competitive with the ones around us because these people can drive from 20 mil away you know they don't have to live in can Falls so this was kind of exciting Good Jeff did you say the C's working oning the entire area or yeah so they would they would Annex this area into the industrial park that's so then would we see tax no cuz the school district boundaries aren't the same as the city so the city will see that yeah okay yep so that was kind of exciting news um another exciting piece of information was Luke and I attended the um the city portion of the uh uh meet and greet with the new city administrator candidates today there's four candidates that kind of came around and uh did a speed dating type of deal where they went from table to table to table over two hours that Luke and I were there and uh we got to know who they were and I would say I feel pretty comfortable with you know a lot of the candidates that were there at this point just add I think it was it was good from the school perspective to have some voice there like we were we explain our concerns and these mandates and the financial strain maybe we have or what current city has done as far as developments and how we think that will help and they all four of them fully understand where we're coming from which is exciting because we've had a good relationship over the last couple years and to see that go forward yeah all of them are very supportive of this school from that standpoint and knowing what it takes to to fulfill our needs moving forward so unless you guys have questions that is all I have anything more for Mr sson okay moving along public input comments are welcome students residents of the District taxpayers of the district people with children in the district essentially if you have a question or a statement um pertaining to anything in the uh agenda for this evening you're certainly welcome to come up up to 3 minutes and uh speak your feace about anything on the agenda and since we have a limited limited agenda Don um so a couple question and actually I looked at your report last night meeting so it's nice to know where it's going I'm trying to figure out where um now the one question I gu several questions on this technology park so this track um they will put theu but not the data C other people bring data I believe so but a good person to ask on that would be the city okay so we don't have City administrator well he's still there oh so Neil still there yeah he's there until the new one takes over he be a good person to ask and then the the last item the Title Nine um changes that you made in the August meeting you know the one thing I guess I have I'd like to say anyway is I think I think making that
