with liberty and justice for all call Chang here Cunningham here soy here foro here Brown Wilson Smith here
s r here we have a problem all right uh first item this evening is uh moving to our executive session to discuss uh negotiations Personnel legal individual privacy and or contract litigation and negotiation um approximately how long
you think will be but think an hour okay an hour bill it is what it is an hour to three so with that I make that motion to move in executive have a second all in favor all
right okay Bill Morris 585 book Avenue I have a request for you guys to consider when you're doing the budget after you do it you should take the number that delce presented you got double it put put it before the voters
to increase the tax rate to bring the teachers up to par of Dy and let the voters decide any other comments that's it thank you uh hearing no one else I make a motion we close by second all in
favor um operations Mr we have a out of District yeah just for one no just the one service we wanted to get on there um so it doesn't like till March and then the use facilties
requests any board members have any questions on this it not I make a motion to approve operations committee uh items D1 through D2 is recommended by the superintendent by second
CH yes Cunningham yes Doyle yes foso yes Wilson yes Smith yes BR yes motion carries all right um superintendent search who wants to leave that off there you have two proposals um here from
njsba and it looks like we have the as Trish mentioned the prior proposal from the Adams when they quoted us to help us when we hired Brian which I guess we're assuming would be in line with what the
regular superintendent search would be um any have any comments or well I would like to at least meet who right now Dr Lori BAU I mean I don't know if anybody's opposed to going through or getting more information on
that I like Le to meet her since she is our our field rep now um I wasn't ex particularly thrilled with the way they that um uh H name H yeah hya handled our
strategic plan to be quite honest with you um I would like us to maybe look at other or to get some other companies that do this maybe a list of those and get a proposal from them as well there's
many companies that do this um but that's how I feel about the two that we have right now CU School boards you said it's talking about before she could that's my I mean that's an issue too no she's saying she could start she'd be able to
start the project she's just saying to expect not somebody to start Oh I thought start super I misunderstood because I didn't have the she was just setting the expectations for us that we should probably well possibly not expect to do
a high to should we have her come in and meet us and should we see what other names are out there I mean you should be with whoever you're you're thinking yeah well and if we may but even just to meet her anyway but I don't know what I mean
is that something that you would do Trish would to be get other companies that I mean Township just Ed a different one I can't remember the name who they got yes um organ initial head Services of commission New Jersey does there's a lot
of a lot there's can can we have you request a quote for us would you be able to do that because I know on some of them right on their web page you can request a quote TR yeah I mean are we comfortable with with having we got all the quotes guys all
the quotes all the quotes well just to clarify we want we want to look at quotes we're considering hiring an outside consultant because there's some board members maybe that aren't here tonight that we're adding it that we do it ourselves so I just want to get on the same page that that's
definitely something we're interested in doing um hiring someone to assist us that's I think need some assistance right okay so at this point hopefully by our what March 12th meeting you can get some additional quotes um oh we Swit to
the 12 I'm sorry we switch to the 12th is regular meeting is Monday the 17th um I mean presumably they're just going to be the same as what we have here just different numbers on right the services
offered and I I don't think we should just go with the cheapest I think we need to go and we need to talk toity need to talk to yeah it's probably best to get the and then invite them to the meeting to a work session and and I think the whole
Board needs to be involved I don't think it a subcommittee is appropriate at this point Who's conflicted you're conflicted I don't think anybody El nja no but I think there should be a sub subcommittee because how if we all get
together it's not against the rules like if we yeah I don't think there there certain members that would like to have a subcommittee and you're against having a subcommittee right I just thought we had to because then it breaks that role you can there's the subcommittee and
usually like um what the Mee but we meet we can't go to diner all of us right and sit and talk right no so like that's what I'm saying what there's going to be meetings and stakeholder meetings and right so typically any consultant whether it's njsba or ABC superintendent
search.com um you know they'll hold those stakeholder meetings so they'll meet with us as admin if we want stakeholder meeting with you as the board with the subcommittees of the stakeholders there okay you should hear the proposals
and then decide if that's if you want the St perfect outside of the district you want parents do you want you probably want administrators probably want teachers but whatever whatever consultant is is chosen would give not
okay well I mean I don't know who's looked at this proposal but the NJ SBA proposal as a baseline is pretty well laid out of some of the services so I think we should all we should all look at that regardless of who we use to see
get an idea of what service are important to us what services maybe we're not interested in they do a great also keep in mind that it's not the um previous field rep if anybody had previous feelings of the previous field
rep exactly I they did m r and it was yes so that's why I'd really like to meet I mean I think the premise of the idea of what they were going to do the steps were good but the at that time
so yeah so I mean I'm pretty sure you have a good um idea of what is offered and again I think it might just come down to a different we price for different service levels all right any other comments on that so at this point we're going to
have additional quotes to look at at our March 12th work session um possibly get some of these people in here is that what the board would like if they're available to come present to us and I think it's probably worth us each thinking about what we want to see in
the superintendent you know what we're looking for because we're going to need to streamline that information too once well that's what why I scho boards does a nice job pulling that together for us and pulling the board and putting up a plan I think they're very good at that
when it's done properly and then I think we also need to determine whether or not we're going to set up the subcommittee um to kind of we through some of this stuff so which we can decide on 12 I guess um there's nothing else on that
any other comments um oh yes are we in Old business or anything no we're a German oh well old I've been meaning to say this since our reor meeting Lacy needs to be assigned a mentor according to policy so
she has not been assigned Mentor formally I've been mentoring her okay well then so you're going to be okay I just it needs to be um I'm looking at this meeting date March the 12th and the discussions uh
regarding um the meeting on the 6th me the 12 obviously keep in mind we're out of executive session now but um possibly that stuff we discussed if all of us aren't going to be here on the six maybe we can push that to the 12th I'll have a discussion with and
that was possibility he said it was I asked if the March 6 was able to be pushed back he said yes who's this are you here the 12 yeah yeah anyone else not here the 12 my birth doesn't matter doesn't
matter do it you don't need me no we'll bring you a cupcake I don't you're here six right I can't make the 12th but but you can't make the six in case you want to get that knocked out on the sixth oh
thought you're just it to the 12th no no I'm saying the the discussion to the 12th but get the certification done on the six but that's not going to happen unless we have a discussion right because there's things looking for I
mean I guess is there a chance that you're going to not certify it I mean I don't know no but some people want some people want to see it so you know okay well if it's not an issue they're pushing it back another 6 days but the reason we pushed it up is because it was you know the time AG okay so no meeting
March 6 it's not going to be March 12th negotiations only March 6 and there would be a 6 o' start 12 correct um did you want to you mentioned something about
negotiations discussing some stuff prior to our meeting if you want being great to hang back this evening do you want to have a discussion on that I don't mean put on the spot I'm thinking um I just we'll talk all right anybody else have any old business new business next meeting the
12th U with that I make a motion we adjourn
