29
00:09:59.040 --> 00:10:14.880
possible day. We work around our normal board meetings as a courtesy except for the public meeting that will be an extra one in September. Um, kind of files the same line that we've done in the past.

30
00:10:14.880 --> 00:10:31.279
Um, is there anything? >> There's a 30-day cushion build in there that if something were to happen and we needed to revert, we could restart the process and still hit statuto timeline. So

31
00:10:31.279 --> 00:10:48.600
it's not a last minute thing. There's a there's a uh oh moment. Okay. Capacity built into that timeline. We try to hit normal meetings. I know did you mention the September ones? >> September 28th. >> That would be a special meeting that align with your normal report.

32
00:10:49.120 --> 00:11:08.320
Excuse me. >> Any questions? >> Oh, sorry. campus project that they Terry, I'm going to have you jump in here. Okay. Um, three, excuse me, three main

33
00:11:08.320 --> 00:11:23.680
projects going on right now in the moment. Elementary bathroom project is well underway and incredibly impressed with police. Um, their site superintendent is topnotch. I mean, Dave runs a tight

34
00:11:23.680 --> 00:11:40.640
and they're not completely done with demo. They're well through. Um, they communicate really clearly with myself and Terry. Um, I can't look, it's early, okay, it's early, but the early returns are really good, man. They're

35
00:11:40.640 --> 00:11:57.680
they're they're the right dance party. Um, so that timeline's really tight on that. It's a huge scope of work. Um, so far material availability is not an issue. Okay. So, we'll see if fixtures actually show up on time. It can be set.

36
00:11:57.680 --> 00:12:13.360
But, um, right now it's it's really good. What I would like to do, this job and middle school job, both in July, we go for a tour. In fact, right now, probably not quite super safe because it's a demilation zone. But by July,

37
00:12:13.360 --> 00:12:32.200
we'll be do show and tell. Um, so speaking of the middle school, Terry, is there anything you had on the elementary bathroom? No surprises or anything? >> Not yet. Not yet. Not yet. Now there's going to be big.

38
00:12:32.639 --> 00:12:47.040
>> All joking aside, man, we pouring all the time out. That's normally where like the uh oh stuff resides, right? Like you start taking Walmart up. I mean, we've gotten through that phase of it. So, it's not to say there won't be something, but likely that was more

39
00:12:47.040 --> 00:13:03.440
or less. Uh the pictures that you see to the bottom left are from the middle school. This is with MCOR doing the H project and they've been phenomenal. I mean phenomenal. Maybe the cleanest chopside I've ever seen is is unreal. Uh they're starting

40
00:13:03.440 --> 00:13:19.040
to set the corner units now. Corner units are all here. I think last month we did we should we talk about we always ask the same question of the site superintendants when they do. So when we do an initial kickoff meeting on in this organization

41
00:13:19.040 --> 00:13:35.839
on a project, the last question to the site superintendent is always what's the one thing on the timeline if it doesn't happen causes you to have heartburn and lose sleep, right? It's called critical path. What has to happen first on time, right, to not screw the whole project

42
00:13:35.839 --> 00:13:53.839
up. And so they were very clear having the units on site so we can set up. Um, initially Terry right we thought they were coming a week late and they showed up a week earlier >> they're all here >> so the one thing that was going to keep them awake is physically on site so

43
00:13:53.839 --> 00:14:12.399
that's a good thing um local people that have had kids in the district working on the job and on the job so it's more than just another project for them and that's certainly helpful but has been incredible anything you would

44
00:14:12.399 --> 00:14:29.880
add there and Mr. Thompson, you've been involved. We've done a transition between buildings with that. >> We've made very distinct deadlines about they have to start school with HBAC and they're taking a seven days last week. So, building demo at this point

45
00:14:30.480 --> 00:14:48.680
last Thursday here. They already building a conversion kit 72. They were already they already going through the units to see like how they were plum and they're going to a couple of them because so on top of everything

46
00:14:49.120 --> 00:15:15.880
I stop by >> I don't think Tyler is more excited to be here. I know that's one of the main players. So, they've got guys here.

47
00:15:16.720 --> 00:15:35.600
We're super excited. >> So, you tell him we know where you live. >> It's a great job for him because I mean he's used to driving right to a site driving. So, that shows up in the time, right? does. Um, and then the last one

48
00:15:35.600 --> 00:15:52.079
you see to the bottom right is we're redoing all of the asphalt in the athletic complex. And so, um, including taking out the grass slash mud area, you know, down by the one end zone. So, that's what you see the picture of the

49
00:15:52.079 --> 00:16:06.320
subbase there. So, they're going to pull concrete this week and they're going to Are they milling down this week, Terry? >> No, it'll be the 22nd. >> Okay. And we think by end of June we should have >> project supposed to be complete on June or July 3rd

50
00:16:06.320 --> 00:16:24.240
like the milling and the all the be done July >> working around all the athletic stuff right Mr. >> and they started the path out to FDA as well >> that's all cut out to the second FDA too.

51
00:16:24.240 --> 00:16:41.600
>> Yeah. So that's gone well. Crimson Sun's doing that work, right? They've done lots of asphalt work on campus over the years progressing really well. That's the three majors. So we'll walk through the elementary and the middle. That's one that suits you guys. Take a look at see what it looks

52
00:16:41.600 --> 00:17:03.519
like. Any questions about project? So far so good. Off to a good start. So far so good. Okay, now let's talk about money. Yes, this is the fun report for May.

53
00:17:03.519 --> 00:17:20.160
Um, in education, you can see where we ended up for the month, 1.448. Um, the beginning of the year was 17. You can see the difference about 300,000.

54
00:17:20.160 --> 00:17:37.600
Um based on our projections and the staff reductions, we're still we're going to see a financial improvement the second half in the fall when we come back. Um which we anticipate to be great evening at the end of the year with all

55
00:17:37.600 --> 00:17:54.880
those pieces moving. Um again the percentage we're in the benchmark education's hanging in there. Uh debt service, no activity. I just got the bond payments for June. Uh they'll

56
00:17:54.880 --> 00:18:11.520
be wired out June 30th, so there'll be some activity next month. Um operations. Yeah. Um our expenses were pretty high, but we had like the Blue River bill, our

57
00:18:11.520 --> 00:18:27.280
insurance premium, renewals came in. um besides the normal um repairs, I think we had our fuel. We're on a contract for fuel and we still pay that in. So, um that kind of

58
00:18:27.280 --> 00:18:43.440
brought us down there. Um again, when we get our property tax and then we're going to cut off spending and we're going to break even or I won't be showing up.

59
00:18:43.440 --> 00:19:00.480
We we have a plan. I just need to This is not a pretty picture in operations, but >> break even by 12:31, right? >> Yes, we will. I'm confident. I'm confident in that. Um I'm looking forward to next month when everything

60
00:19:00.480 --> 00:19:18.960
comes in. So, uh rainy day, no activity this last month. You just the 60,000 for the year. The middle school flood repairs cafeteria. We had again our point of sale renewal.

61
00:19:18.960 --> 00:19:40.400
Uh normal expenditures and repairs, but nothing big in there. Answer any questions? It's an is, but we I I feel confident um after Mr. Hope pulled me off the ledge, we got things coming down that it's

62
00:19:40.400 --> 00:20:05.120
going to make a difference. So, we'll be fine in all areas. >> Thank you. >> I would love to go first. Um, I wasn't here last month, but I want to give a shout out to Lori Deal and Justin Watson. They did a heck of a job with

63
00:20:05.120 --> 00:20:20.720
the DC trip. Um, it's just an amazing time, so I enjoyed it. I want to congratulate Coach Graham um on your retirement from coaching. Uh, I want to say thank you for your time, your effort, and your commitment, not just to

64
00:20:20.720 --> 00:20:41.679
the school, but to also the community. Um, so thank you, and I apologize that he's going to be home more now. I have nothing to say. >> I don't either. I think so much time lose right now. I know. I know. Everybody's trying to get out of here.

65
00:20:41.679 --> 00:20:58.159
>> Uh Terry, good job staying on over there. >> Thanks for Everything looks great over there. I've snuck in. Maybe get some stuff for football and it I mean everything great. So you're gonna go over there. Mr. Graham,

00:21:31.919 --> 00:21:47.600
Graham, thank you for everything. Appreciate it. >> Just going to echo what everybody else said. >> I appreciate everyone that's working on campus this summer. I mean, obviously Jerry's crew is going busters. It's going to be really interesting at the

69
00:21:47.600 --> 00:22:03.760
end of July because we're going to compress two buildings into about a 10day or 12 day time period. It's going to be fun. Um, but also I mean, you know, Aaron and I Mr. Landis's organization, they're redoing I mean, you know, we're rolling out new iPads

70
00:22:03.760 --> 00:22:22.159
and new Neo Macs. So, all of that's going on. I mean, the high school has been the hub of activity because it's the only one basically not on the line. So, we're off to a good start. It's early in the year in the summer, but appreciative of everybody's work. We got a lot to do. Hopefully it all come

71
00:22:22.159 --> 00:22:44.720
