have an outstanding police department. I brag about you a whole lot, so don't disappoint. bars high, but we um love to hire new officers that have just tremendous experience and that are going to fit our culture. And so I'll let you say more and won't steal any of your
thunder to um do an oath of office. This was Chief Price's idea, so give him credit. So Chief, all yours. >> So we have sworn in dogs and we've done honorary swearins, but we've never sworn in a full-time officer in front of the board. So I asked if we'd be able to do that tonight. So if you guys are okay with it, I would like to swear in Kevin
D. Kevin, if you wouldn't mind if you're gonna stand up front and center there. All right. >> So, when many agencies are really struggling to get qualified applicants, uh, we had 10 days open. We had almost 100 applications in 10 days for one position. Um, so when many agencies are
really struggling to find good officers, uh, we don't seem to have that and I think that has a lot to do with the culture and environment that we've created here for police officers. So, board, thank you. And I want to make sure I take that opportunity to do this in front of you guys. So Kevin somehow reached the top of the the heap there.
Um he's a retired military guy. Um he's never been in law enforcement before, but he has started his field training and apparently from what I'm reading, he's doing a stellar stellar job. So willing to learn and uh he actually has a daughter from high school. We won't embarrass her,
but we'll keep out of high school. >> All right. So without further ado, I'm gonna swear you in front of everybody. Okay. Kevin, >> a member of the Clark Police Department. >> Dolely swear that I will do swear that I will
>> support the Constitution of the United States of America. >> Constitution of the United States of America, >> the Constitution, State of Indiana, >> the Constitution, State of Indiana, >> and that I will faithfully discharge all of my duties. >> I will faithfully discharge all of my duties. Congratulations.
>> Absolutely. Thank you. Congratul So, like I said, that concludes the best part of our meeting. Thank you uh for coming. You're more than welcome to attend, but it's not going to be it is not as exciting as what you just witnessed for the last however many 20 25 minutes. However, we've got uh school
business to take care of and we will segue right into consent agenda. And I'll go through items A through F. First, A is minutes from the January 12th regular board meeting. B is the minutes from the executive session um on
January 12th. C is a list of um disposable surplus equipment. It's basically uh some older classroom equipment, a Whirlpool tub, and two trailers. uh that comes from our operations department. There's the monthly fund and revenue and claims report. Nothing to pull out. Uh we
thought there was, but that's that's not the case. Uh the monthly personnel report. I'll pause for a second and uh publicly, but we will um do some other things later on down the road, but we I want to recognize and thank um the retirement of our middle school
principal, uh Tim Reinhold. He has been with Clark Pleasant Schools, I think, at least over 20 years. And so I appreciate his leadership and his commitment to this district, to the kids, and to the staff at the middle school. We do have a resonation, not a retirement, but a resonation from Principal Short at Ray
Crowe. She has also put in a lot of time and devoted um a vast majority of her career uh to Clark Pleasant and has been very loyal um and has been a very good leader at Ray Crow and various other buildings too during her tenure. So I commend them for their years of service.
Under contracts, there are six of them. The first one is with policy analytics and that is a letter of engagement to give us uh financial analysis throughout this calendar year, especially in our referendum fund. Uh you have the uh separate law firm that will help Dr.
Scholaski with an HB1 visa renewal. That's the REFA Law Group. Our current one does not do that. It's a specialty area or practice. So I think it's been used before that that firm. Uh then you have Trullio which is a pilot program uh
for an open AI source. There's no cost to us for 60 days. Uh chief police ran across this and would like to test it out a little bit. If you have any questions about that, I mean he's still here. Uh you have the Smeckkins contract which is just continued professional development for writing across the
curriculum at our middle school and high school for our ELA English language arts teachers. You have the three-year contract with certified lawns with weed control application, the football field, um our our other buildings. There's mowing and trimming of five campuses.
You see that breakdown. I won't go through each of those um pages or dollar amounts. One thing Sam told me is as some of our fields become um turf, then then that can reduce this um particular expense. So, that's a good thing. um
he's he's got that um planned and mapped out. The last contract is with wastewater compliance and consultation and that's um for assistance out at I believe Clark Elementary for 3520 a month. Um I'd entertain any questions if
you have any um glad to field them before you would uh approve. Do I have a motion to approve the consent agenda as presented? >> So move. >> Second.
>> Are there any questions or concerns? >> All those in favor? >> I >> I. >> All right. Next is communications. Uh we'll start with our Central 9 career center report. Miss Posel, >> uh, last week was a big one for C9. On
Tuesday, February 10th, they had a visit from Governor Mike Braun and Secretary of Ed, um, Katie Jenner. They, while they were there, they toured several of the Central 9 programs, including HVAC, um, EMS, fire and rescue, auto services,
veterary sciences, and criminal justice. The team was quite impressed with what they saw and they have proclaimed February as CTE month. On Wednesday, February 11th, Central 9 held a meeting of local stakeholders to help guide the
focus of the federal Perkins funding. Several schools and community groups were represented. I attended as the represent uh rep from Central 9 board. Um, high on the priority list included
opportunities for workbased learning and better ways to track the hours logged to the state. Um, on then on Thursday, February 12th, monthly board meeting took place in conjunction with a student openhouse that would have had been
rescheduled due to the weather. Um, there was no program showcase. Um, we started with a reorganization of the board that resulted in officers staying the same. Don Downer of Franklin Central as president, Becky Nelson, Franklin
Community as vice president, and myself um as secretary. Dr. Kovox um concluded his one-on-one meetings with the superintendent and found a common theme of the need to closely align the CTE offerings and curriculum of local
schools. possibly um taking the standard two-year C9 program and having the first year covered in the local school and the second year a more advanced at C9 and
thereby opening more seats for students. Um Whiteland High School once again had a large number of students of the month, nine out of 29 and our next meeting is March 12th. >> Thank you, Linda. Uh next is the
redevelopment commission report here in the town of Whitland. Mr. Bon >> board met and discussed uh the review of the phase one and phase two of the reports they are required to give of their tiff areas.
As a other note, they did discuss the roundabouts at Sawmill and discuss the Glinton roundabout contract have been signed and uh
more discussion of the generators that they purchased. >> Okay, thank you very much. Next item is new. Um it is with the city of Greenwood. it's our turn to um represent our corporation uh in that RDC and Mr.
Zeke has the honor. I don't know if you've even gone to a meeting yet. >> Yeah, I have went to two actually since the since our last meeting. Uh the first one was basically an organizational meeting where they selected their their leaders and and things like this. And I'm only going to go over a couple of
the things that really affect us. So because there were other things that affected would have affected the Center Grove School Corporation or possibly the Greenwood, you know, corporation, but they kept their officers as the same. The only thing that really dealt with us
on that first meeting is they finalized the orders for the Greenwood Sports Park. That is, you know, done. They had a few things that they had to change but basically that was what was done in that
first meeting. Um they reappointed the department's people u like I said for the for it. Uh the only thing that I found that was interesting there is the committee the RDC is five people. Three
of them are appointed by the mayor and the other two are um appointed by others and the three that are appointed by the mayor, they can't be all the officers. So anyway, so they have that. The second
meeting that I attended, I was I attended by Zoom and there were some important things there. Um but the we had a little snafu. I got in, I got a phone call after about 20 minutes of the
meeting and when I clicked to delete the phone call, it knocked me out of the meeting and I couldn't get back in. But up to that point of time, there was a couple of things that were were important. Um, they talked about a site
development north of Main Street. Now, that could include us, but at this point of time, it's it's not organized. The other thing I found interesting is that any alcohol beverage permit that is in the riverfront district, if you know what the riverfront district is in
Greenwood, that's their by their park, has to be approved by the RDC, which I thought was unique. Um, they did talk about the Arlington farm, the Arlington farm, which they
will, you know, which will affect us. They changed the allocation area to where to where that's going to be, you know, uh, in a Greenwood area that will be in our school district. So, at least
if they spend the money there, it's at least it's going to go back into our school district. So, that that was the two meetings that I went to. >> All right. Well, thank you very much. Next and last item is an um February ADM
average daily membership count. So, uh, that date was February 2nd, I believe, and our count was 6,837 students. That's just K through 12. It does not count preschool um students. If you um want to know what
last year's was, February 25, I made sure I looked that up. Uh, we're only down 13 students. It was 68.50. So that's a a smaller um drop than if you looked at our last two September ADM counts from the 25 24 um calendar years.
So that that's a positive. Um obviously our goal is to increase the September um ADM count for for this upcoming school year. So there is that. Um any questions about ADM before I move on to our old business item?
All right. If you think of any, obviously, please um blur them out. And I want to then take as much time as necessary to um go over um as a second reading the PowerPoint uh that pertains
to facility rental uh usage and fees. So, as that's getting pulled up, um I'm going to make sure that I go through each slide carefully. Uh last month we did the first reading. We had good input, good questions, good suggestions
by you all. Appreciated that. Took notes and then made those adjustments um as a committee and I've appreciated their work throughout the past several months, Sam and David and and Brad. And so um please blurt out here if you have any
thoughts or questions. Um on this first slide, uh there really was no changes from last month. um you still see the effective date. We'll keep that in red or slash orange until um it it obviously may even get passed tonight, but I'll
pause for a second. Please realize that um this is a live working document. So if if what we even talk about and if if you approve or you want a table and they have another month that's totally fine where uh we may have to come back to you
and say you know what this is not working like what we thought it um may may or may not be working as. So under general guidelines we went through that in more detail last month. There is nothing that was um requested to change there. So I won't um take any time
there. I do want to spend some time on page four slide four. That's this one titled rental fees for indoor um facilities in the grid. I did put in orange because it was a good suggestion in in our brand new nitorium. We are not going to allow
parties for a long time. Um I I don't think we want to entertain birthday parties at this point as we open up um an incredibly state-of-the-art Olympic size Natiatorum. on the three bullet points down below.
And I know you can't see that either here, but maybe up there. I'll read it to you. It was a good suggestion, I think, by um either Kim or Ken. Um the third bullet point says this. Any long-term rental usage requests of our facilities will require a separate
contract that is board approved. That could be if Franklin College says, "Hey, we want to use your natitorium for our winter season or some other entity or business like that that has has a plan or has some dates that that's going to just continue on, then we can have a
separate contract." So, we're really not making them fill out this form every single time. So, that was a good suggestion. That's what that third bullet point says. Um, the next one, page five, is a continuation of our indoor facilities. This is all orange
because this we spent some time on this one. So, I'm going to go through each row. We um have the first row being our W Community High School wrestling facility. We may change the name of that at some point, but an hourly rate of 250 per
hour. Once you're past four, then it would go up to 2500 for a daily rate. We already have club um teams talking about this even though we're not done with the facility. Um we have the the new band and choir rooms that um will get done in
phase two, right? Um and those are massive. I think we saw them just a little bit ago. So they'll definitely be used when we host ISMA events that are indoors um or inside. And so that's where and we ran this by
our um fine arts uh leaders. They're comfortable with 150 per hour. Excuse me while I get a drink. We're a daily rate of 1500 per room. Again, that's per room. So, if they just want the choir room for an entire day or
for five or six hours, it's going to be 1500. If you want the banding choir, I don't know if that would happen. It could with an ISMA event, then you're you're talking 3,000 total since it's per room. The auditorium is going to be brand new, so we wanted to make that um
pretty significant. So again, as we open it up and as we work through all the kinks and the issues, we're we're just trying to make it um steep enough so that we're really not letting in groups that that may not take care of it as well as what we want.
So with that being said, um you could see in parenthesis underneath WCHS auditorium, it says additional fees may be added depending upon the nature of event. So that gives us some flexibility. I mean, it could be where they're putting on a dance dance dance recital and they may need all kinds of
lighting and and sound and tech and that's going to be a slide here um forthcoming with some of those fees for some of those areas. So, that's why we put that verbiage in there in parenthesis. But an hourly rate of a,000 per hour um from 1
to four hours, then four plus hours, 10,000 a day. Um that's that's actually pretty comparable to um what Center Grove charges which they have a super nice auditorium too. You then have the brand new fieldhouse that we we will have constructed in in about two years.
Kind of the same um type of hourly uh fee rate and daily rate at a th00and uh per hour from 1 to four hours and then four plus is going to be 10,000. questions about that one.
Trying to make it uniform, consistent um as best we can. All right, we'll go to page six, slide six. This now um transitions to the outdoor rental fees for our outdoor
facilities. So, at the soccer complex, there was some good discussion here recently that we're really just talking about turf field only, and I put that in orange. Um, that was a change from last month. Um, really that's all we would let them,
um, them being whatever group. I could tell you right now, uh, there's a professional group that that wants to practice on our fields just north of us. So, um, they would just want the the turf field and and that's really what we're talking about if there's soccer soccer games and and stuff like that.
So, 250 an hour, uh, from 1 to four hours, then four plus, um, a daily rate of 2500. Kind of the same thing with the baseball softball fields. Once they get done, they will be turfed, they will be sharp. Same rate, 250 an hour from 1 to four,
daily rate of 2500. We didn't really change anything with the tennis complex, but you can relook at that. That stayed obviously the same. Uh there was good suggestion, a good suggestion last month about the middle school uh field to throw that um in this because it it
wasn't there. So, we we put that row and uh we said, you know, um 250 an hour, 2500. I know that's not turfed or anything. Um if you want that change, that's fine. that that's actually a lower rate than what you're going to see right below when the football field will
be done in phase five that we'll have new turf, new track, new bleachers, new whole stadium and complex. So, we're saying even even now um I know um Mr. Edens gets requests from semi-pro teams, hey, can we use the football field in
November? Um I still think this is a good rate to charge them. Uh $1,000 per hour. um four plus hours, 10,000 a day for daily rate. The two bullet points in orange, uh I'll read them verbatim. The third one says any long, it's really the
same thing I I put on the other ones. Any long-term rental usage request for facilities require a separate contract that's board approved. Rental fees for soccer, baseball, softball, and football fields includes the usage of press box and restrooms. So, that was something we
wanted to point out. I'll pause for a second. Questions about that. >> Is that a charge on the varsity field? What Senator Grove is doing? >> Um I don't know if that's what they're doing. Do you know David? Not sure.
>> I can find out. >> Do we know how often they rent those type of things out? >> No. I know the baseball field at Center Grove is both of them are rented out a lot. Uh and they do that with the I'm
trying to think what organization but it's basically um adult baseball. >> Oh, >> okay. >> Like vintage baseball. >> Yeah, vintage. >> Yeah. >> If I was playing it' be slow baseball.
All right, we'll go to slide seven, I believe. Um, this was good conversation last month. So, really spent some time on this one where this is pertaining to this grid. This chart is really pertaining to um our different kind of
departments, custodians, technicians, kitchen staff, security. So, what was proposed was hourly rates that were really low and and so we wanted to increase that up. Double it is what we did. Instead of 30 an hour, made it 60 an hour for custodians. More than four
hours is 600. Technicians, we kind of put that in that second row with a a plural um where it could be technology, it could be lighting, could be sign. I did even have Brandon Wright part of this this he's not here tonight but but part of this discussion so that um he
could give us that technical aspect of this particular fee and and when we obviously need to to use it and charge it. So an hourly rate is 77 75 more than four hours 750 felt that was um very good um very fair kitchen staff uh 60
per hour more than four hours 600 um for the daily rate you have the water safety instructor and lifeguard again 60 per hour from 1 to four and then more than four hours uh 600 security 100 for
hourly rate more than four hours a thousand I just crossed off tech staff I'll clean that all up if um this would get approved. Those are the um rows in that chart that we really obviously like I said doubled. We did talk about well
should there be categories to we didn't want to make it that complex but but may we may have to so so I wouldn't take that that off the table so to speak. Um I wasn't quite sure how that would work to be honest with you. Thoughts or
questions about that? >> Yeah. If the rental fee includes the restrooms and the press box, are we going to require that we also have a custodian there to clean that at that time? >> Yes.
>> Okay. >> Yep. >> So fee would be >> rental plus >> additional. Yes. Addition plus. Yep. >> All right. Um, next slide is where
um, we have a few words and clauses in orange. Um, we changed that third bullet point to just say staff on duty. And then the fourth one is just clarifying that it's a it is our police department. Um,
that we would we would use if we obviously have a very large large gathering of either 250 or 500. >> 250. And slide nine, we didn't have any changes. Slide 10, there were no changes.
>> I have a question about slide nine. Um, I've been to a lot of choir competitions that go much later than 10 pm. >> I don't know about your thoughts on >> Yeah. So, if um the choir competitions are on the
weekends, >> I don't think they try to do them during like Monday through Thursday. >> Oh, sure. >> So, that's what we were trying to say there is is during that day. Now, I can clean that up a little bit. maybe add add a clause in in parenthesis and I'll
I'll do that make a note. Um >> what the intent with that is we didn't want anything starting after 10. >> Yeah. Starting after >> so so if that choir which you're right they can go till midnight >> been to some too. Uh they're starting at
really all day some of them. >> So >> we'll put I'll put some clarifying language in that. Thank you. Thank you. Let me make a note. That's page nine. >> Is that going to pertain Mr. Zel to band competitions too?
>> Especially >> Yeah. Yeah. If we have isma >> out there on the football field. >> Well, yeah. I mean, they're they're starting before 10, but we can have some clarifying language. Yeah. We just didn't want it after 10 o'clock
on that clarifying language. I believe there's a difference between a school day and a non-school day. >> Yeah. >> Yep. I can I can add that. Yeah. Thank you.
Other thoughts or questions? So, if there are none, um I I would ask that you would um seek to approve this recommendation pending what we just said with even on page nine. I'll add some clarifying language, but again, if it changes, we'll bring it back to you
anytime. We have changes in fee amounts in significant language, not not small like in the of articles. So, um, that would be, uh, my request. >> Yeah. I've got one thing that, you know,
we slipped by and I didn't bring it up at the time. Why 250? I mean, if we have a crowd of 50, I'm not so sure we shouldn't have police there. So, and especially in today's world.
Uh, let me go to that slide. That would be slide eight. So, what really resonated with me was a particular event a couple years ago, my first year, um that that got concerning and it was in
our old auditorium. And so, um we did not have security at that one. That was well over 250. So, there there's no reason of why we picked 250. Um nothing that we're
required to adhere to or not. Um I think 50 is too low but I don't know if you have thoughts chief. >> So what we ask the buildings to do currently on any events anything with 250 or more they notify us and let us know current.
So it's just kind of our standard practice now >> and I would say you know we have awards programs at the end >> they can get 152. I'm not going to ask security to be here for an awards program. I mean that that's very professional and there's calm. Um >> we we can handle that. I can handle
that. >> Kid doesn't get the MVP. I'm not sure. >> I've dealt with that. I can handle that. We have been at events with less far less but there might >> and and I would say if we don't like
this we'll bring it back to you. >> So do we not have any liability of you know for under 250 if it's 100 be a reasonable person that would think that we would need security there. Again, if I've got an awards banquet
that that we do at the end of the year for 150, I'm I I want to be conservative with that money to be honest with you. Okay. >> Be fiscally responsible. >> But it's their money really. >> Yes. But I also don't want to waste their time either.
>> Okay. >> Thank you, Chief. I make a motion to approve for the second reading the adoption of the CPCSC facility rental agreement with amendments that we discussed.
>> Second. >> Any other concerns, comments? All those in favor? >> I >> All right. On to new business. Um, I'll ask Chief Price to come back up for um
the first two uh recommendations that are going to come from him and he'll explain a lot better than than I can. We'll start with uh some special purchases. >> So, um I'm requesting your consideration of purchasing three new package vehicles
from Chevrolet Jasper purchased the last three sets of vehicles. We're going to trade in two vehicles with that offset cost. So, it's three total package pickup trucks and trades
in just because they're the old ones are old. Jimmy Miles, >> it's not necessarily idle time and these two specific vehicles have some electrical issues that we're constantly chasing to maintain.
>> And I would just add that we have the appropriation allocation in our referendum fund. So it is it is prudent and smart to make that purchase at this time um compared to the second half of this year. >> Yeah.
>> Whenever you're purchasing these, did you I know we purchased in the past. Did you shop around through the other state approved agencies? I'm assuming you did, but just so that the world knows that you did. >> Yes. Uh I even attempted to go back to uh Dodge again. I even met with the VP
of maintenance and sales last summer. Uh he promised me that he would contact me by December and let me know that uh everything was fixed and he was even going to send me a test car and I have yet to hear from him. Yes, I have done my due diligence and
around trucks. >> Good to know. >> And you're saying you're buying two trucks and what else? >> We're buying three Chevy 1500s these package vehicles and then we are trading in two vehicles. >> Is there a reason why we're buying trucks?
>> Uh cost. Uh these are about $7,000 cheaper than the Taho. The base price of this is 49,600. The Taho are 58,000. out there that's being offered including the Dodges are about 50 or more. Um so
the Dodge or sorry the Chevy trucks are about the cheapest most durable and it's the same motor that we have everything in. So everything >> cheaper than a Explorer >> they're almost they're kind of competing right now
those are 39,000 last year 56,000 >> I move re we approve the uh recommendation for purchase of the Clark Pleasant Police Department vehicles presented. >> I'll second. >> All those in favor? >> I
>> thank you. Next item. Um Chief wants to share a little bit about um our police department becoming a real time information center. >> All right. So bear with me. I've been on for about three weeks. A little rusty. I looked at this four weeks ago when I finished this. Um and I go back through
it again. So, um I just want to reemphasize what this is stating we are already doing. What I'm trying to do going forward is defining it um and with the hopes of expanding it going forward. Again, we have set out to be the
standard within schoolbased law enforcement. And I think from everything that I hear, we are. Nobody else has done what I'm about to ask you guys to do. Um so, if you have questions, please don't hesitate. Um, this this is again already what we do. Um, so what I'm
asking to do is rename what we call our dispatch, which we can't technically legally call a dispatch, a real time information center. Um, the biggest reason why I'm asking for this is grant money. Um, allowing us to change the name or label this with a real time
information center. The the hot trendy thing right now in law enforcement is funding real time information centers. Um, so this allows us to kind of what we're doing, but allow us to expand and open it up and possibly find external funding for this to continue to
make it better and improve it forward. Um, so honestly, and the few ladies that work this every day are sitting right over here. I don't know if you guys have met them. They do not get enough credit for what they do. And I promise you, we would not be nearly as good as we are without
those. So, thank you very much. Um so bottom line what we do watch cameras a lot of information coming in a lot of information going back out um live monitoring of all our cameras we have 1900 feeds um over 700 cameras physical cameras uh incident support we
watch the CAD constantly and then again crime prevention through watching all that stuff watching the cat information talking to other officers um didn't work um againly with like relating this back to school school safety. Um, this improves our
faster response, also support getting that information quicker. That contract you approved earlier, that trial at Trulio, that closed source AI that also helps with all this stuff. It takes all that information, compiles it really quickly, sp it back out. Um, also with pattern recognition and then bigger, we
are only a seven, eight man department. Um, this allows for that multi- agency coordination. Um, all the agencies working together down here. We would not nearly be as well equipped as we could possibly be without that coordination and collaboration.
>> Um so again, this is nothing new. We're doing all this stuff already. Um we're monitoring systems, providing intelligence, uh whether that's through um our neighbors or our um NCIC and IDAX, whether it's through uh sharing
updates to if if a critical incident were to happen here. um identifying those trends and supporting reviews um with after actions with all the information and camera footage and everything else happened or did happen. We do emergency dispatching. Um I don't
know if I told you this when I first got here calls for service were right around 130 140 a month. As of September October we're upwards almost 200 a month. So we are busy these these ladies take a lot of phone calls during the day and that's
not necessarily a bad thing. It just means that we become more entwined with the culture and the environment and people lean on us a little bit more on policy which is which is a great thing. um our incident reporting databases. Um again, these two ladies monthly report
the feds on our neighbors. Um everything that we're doing, monitor our camera systems, mapping and our analyzing tools. Again, I know this sound red and again stop me and ask any questions you want. Again, we've been doing this for years.
Um community partnership, our shared security. Um one part of this that I would like to look into, nothing guaranteed, nothing is I would like to start incorporating private entities camera feeds. Um we don't know exactly what that will look
like and if anything does occur with that of course I'll bring back to you guys. But what this would absolutely do would give us free camera feeds um back towards our school system allow us to have a fewer re further reach uh within our camera feeds and also provide a
service back to our community partners uh our businesses next door to us so on so forth. Um so again it expands our views and against all governed by signed by you guys. Uh legal compliance um we take all of
this very very serious. Um everything that we do goes through the attorneys and back through you. Um we have strict controls and redundancies in place that allow us to uh maintain all of this information and then responsible handling and it also protects all of our
students. We are very on purp and oversight. Um again we talk about we have a very good working relationship with new white the sheriff's department greenwood and all that happens because we're willing to talk and work together train together.
Um so this this is also another avenue down that road continue to share information. We already do it but again this is that way for us to organize that and define it. Um we they work closely with us. We work closely with them. If they need help if we need help they
absolutely jump over the same thing response enhanced safety and stronger trust. Um part of this I would ask that we are can change their two um titles to real time crime analyst roles. Uh this does come with some
specific training that they've already started to reach out. Most of that has been free. Um they have this will allow us again to title them to the point where grant money either federal or state will allow us to dive further into those. Um and then
also another part to this that I would like to add would be the introduction of position. This is something we've been tossing around for the last year and a half. Our run load has gotten high enough. Our case load has gotten high enough. All it's doing right now is taking individual officers out of buildings. So, I would like to dedicate
one person to investigate criminal matters. But on top of that, I would like to add this part to that, which would allow all of the information that's coming into the Arctic to go out through that detective position. Allow one person to be accountable for all the
information. So again, tonight what I'm asking for is one to change it to the Arctic. I have to point it out if I'm nearly um I would like to adjust your titles. And then again, if you give me permission to start looking for grants, we're about on
grant season, so I'd like to start looking for grants to fund this or now or in the future to expand this. I'd start to look into external partnerships and development. Again, I would include you all in that. And then again, the last one will be added
to monitor and maintain that red. >> So, the only nice job, chief. The only thing I would add is with that fifth one, um, we will need to see what happens at the November ballot >> with our referendum renewal.
>> So, basically, you take the an officer out and and make him a detective. >> So, how much more increase in his pay is that going to be? >> So, we're currently working on a handbook that will be all discussed in that handbook um and hopes that we kind of kind of define that as a
we never had one before. I don't know exactly what that's going to look like just yet, but we are currently working finance and HR kind of figure out where that would lie. It would be more It's not a supervisory position, but it is more work. So, it
would probably be a slight >> It's almost like you're going to have to hire another person to help watch cameras. >> Not yet. >> We got to find the funding for that. >> Yes. Okay. Any other questions? >> Yeah. I just want to make sure I
understand. We're not trying to to enlarge the scope of what your responsibilities are. Is that correct? It's still school buildings and activities. Okay. >> All we're doing is partnering with our we are again the epitome of community
schools. We are with we are ingrained within business and everything else. There's no reason why we can't all work together to make everybody get what they need. >> Right. and and you know that I'm really impressed with what what our police department does. I'm so happy with with what they do. But
you're asking for title changes and a position for the detective, but you're not asking for anything from tax dollars other than referendum funds or grants. Is that correct?
>> That is correct. Okay. I'll make a motion to approve the renaming, the retitling, and continue the other things to determine where we go.
>> I second. >> All those in favor? >> Thank you, Chief. All right. Next, uh, Brad Pelton to share some donations. >> All right, I have a few donations for your approval tonight. The first one is
$50 to the high school, $1,000 communications, breaking bread, $500 to service, $20 from Bill to
The Clark School graduate students for $8,325 $500 from church and then $1,200. I move we approve the donation
submitted. >> All those in favor? >> I. >> All right, Brad, I'll say a few words. You can stay there in case there's any questions. D is a recommendation for financial software. Um Brad has spent several months within his department to
do an RFP for the the financial analysis package that we currently use and have used for years. It's compet. Um, if you know anyone that's worked with compet, it's not pleasant. Um, very archaic, even though they did upgrade it to a
more, oh, I don't know, just up virtual type um, version several years ago. Um, Brad did his due diligence, worked again with his department. They had interviews of different vendors that responded to the RFP uh RFP and it was unanimous that
within his department that they'd like to switch to this company called Tyler Technologies actually save us $50,000 annually and um they just like the whole format user friendliness anything else to add? >> Yeah, right right now we have control
that's our accounting and payroll software. Uh within the past couple of years we've added another that works for showcology and just make us more efficient.
>> I have one bill instead of three. Make a motion to approve the new software as presented. >> Second. >> Thank you, Brad. All right. Next item is a first reading, so it doesn't take uh any or require any action, but obviously we'd entertain any questions. And um
appreciate the work Jenny Zom did on this and reaching out to um other local communication coordinators, directors. Uh we did have our legal council review this document with CCHA. I won't read through it verbatim. You obviously can
do that yourselves. I will give you a little bit of the the background and then highlight a few of the important categories. So it is really in rules of engagement with social media of posts that we put out um on our social media
pages from Facebook to Instagram. I don't know if we have any others X or yeah X. So um our purp our rationale is to promote what we do well to promote our students to promote our staff
forformational purposes for events for marketing. So and and Jenny and her team has has just done a tremendous job since she's been on board with us. I I can't praise her enough. She don't like to hear that, but that's the that's the truth. So
thank you for all the work you've you've done, Jenny. um that has made it everything I just said um informative, beneficial, productive, um promotional. Yet we are concerned every so often
there are comments that are vastly inappropriate um that border on um to be very direct racism um discrimination. I will point then to that part of the document where um as you scroll down you
see our mission vision vision you see our purpose and scope. So the second page is the rules of engagement and content that is just not going to be allowed and you see there are six areas obviously harmful, unlawful, abusive,
inappropriate that's threatening, illegal, harassing, obscene, vulgar, defamatory. Um, we're just not going to allow that for for our students and employees. They can call me whatever they want. I don't care, but but not the rest of us. So, um, privacy violations
that would violate any HIPPA, Furpa, you name it. Um, discrimination, harassment, I already mentioned that. Um, you know, also with respect to commercial political activity, our our goal is to be neutral is is to do what I just said, promote our corporation, our students,
and our employees. Um, the last part is the whole spam AI misrepresentation that wow that has just that continues to evolve. So, um, that's the intent and,
um, look that over. We would obviously entertain any questions. Anything to add to that, Jenny? >> I like com. I think that It's not necessarily something.
>> Thank you, Jenny. Any questions or changes? As you as you read through it, you obviously can uh get in touch with me in the next several weeks too before next month's board meeting. A lot's involved in social media.
All right. Um let's move on to field trips and there are three of them. We have the girls tennis team at the high school uh going to a tournament in Covington April 25th and 26th. And then we have the boys soccer camp at
Anderson July 10th through the 12th of 2026 this summer. Then you have JAG students at the high school um at a career development conference in Salt Lake City, Utah. I think Dr. Ship may be uh supervising that. No, I'm joking.
Uh that's April 29th through May 3rd of 26 this current school year. Uh that's so that's all three field trips that we would um seek your approval. >> Make a motion to approve field trips as >> second. >> All those in favor?
>> I >> All right. Next item is some lease financing resolutions. There are two of them. The first one is to appoint a new member. Um our recommendation request for for your approval is Austin Fruits
to be a new member. the current um the other two current members are Brad Long and Joe Kelsey um the one who um had to resign moved out of our district. The second resolution is the 12th supplement of insurance for our 2001 ad valorium
bonds um that had to be updated for the series 2026. All this is prepared by ICE Miller with Christine Mlullen who um is a great advocate for us and and guides us to make sure everything is done um
properly by timelines, statutes, and so forth. Did I say that right, Brett? Okay. >> Make a motion to approve Austin and all the other >> supplements.
Thank you. Second. >> All those in favor? >> I >> I >> All right. Our last item of business is um a request slashrecommendation from myself and um our team to uh seek
purchasing some real estate. It is um got the following address 1646 East 600 North Whitland. It's right around 53 acres and um the purchase amount is in the amount of 3 million. Even uh you
have a resolution drafted by our attorney um from CCHA, Jesse Billingsley. And then there is the purchase agreement itself that's been put together by our broker, Andrew Prince. I know Andrew's here. Andrew's been a godsend to um guide me through things so I don't
misstep. And um I just um I'm excited about this opportunity for many o many future um just opportunities not to use that word redundantly. Uh that yes thank you that prospects that um
are probably going to going to happen at some point in the next 5 to 10 years. So I I think this is visionary. It is centrally located. It is diagonally in a northeast direction from our operations building. um not even for uh the
potential use of of expansion within our our student population um but but even help our youth programming that um we need to make sure we take care of. Um so that um is is some of our thoughts
and and a request to seek your approval. I move we approve the resolution and purchase agreement for the purchase of the real estate at 1643 East 600 North Whitland. >> Second.
>> Any questions? >> I just want to make sure. Obviously, what we're getting ready to purchase has a house on it and has a an area. Can we reduce the size of that house at any time that we want? I know
we're buying all the property, >> but >> yeah, the house comes with five acres. Um, >> can we make that house, you know, obviously if we want >> if legally we can redo it and do go through all the proper steps, then I don't see why unless there's something I don't know.
>> Yeah. >> Yeah. I would want to use it for something more than a lawn or a backyard. >> It needs replotted for sure. >> That's what I want. >> What I want to make sure of. Okay. >> Any other questions, concerns?
>> All those in favor? I >> I >> All right. That's all I have for new business. Um, let's see. Under my report, I would just say that, um, construction's moving right along. Um, you're able to see that
even tonight. Um, the exterior signage is just outstanding and, um, positive for our logo, our branding that we did just about a year ago, whenever that was, year and a half ago. So, um, just just really excited to to see things
develop to even get phase one nearing completion so that it's ready for this coming August. Kudos to Sam and your team and your oversight. So, um, I'd like to thank Sams. He's he's done a great job over there and looks really
good. >> I agree. >> Appreciate you. >> I agree. Thank you. That's all I have for superintendent report. Anyone have any comments? >> Please come up. State your name. Is that one person?
>> So, it depends on the event. Yeah. If the event's going to be pretty large, then obviously there would be multiple custodians. >> Yeah. I'll I'll put the prostr on. So, thank you. >> Thank you very much.
>> So, he's asking for 60 per custo whatever that was, right? >> Good point. Any other comments? Okay, there are no other comments. >> Make a motion to close the
meeting. >> All those in favor? I >> I need to get journ.
