all right you are live good morning it's 7:02 in the West Central Area media center and we will call the meeting to order and we'll start with the pledge aliance I pledge Al to the flag of the United States of America and to the
repblic for which it stands one nation under God indivisible with liberty and justice for all roll call Christensen here here Mr sabolik is not with us sandstead here Strunk here and Al is here um do we have
any visitors at this time that would like to address the board I think so all right we'll move on to um adopting the agenda we've got a couple of additions Mr Brown though we do yep for hire 6.2.1
point5 Danielle Marty so she was interviewed yesterday and recommended for the elementary secretary position up at North Elementary currently serves as a pair of professional at that building and then um looking through the election pieces there looking to adopt the resolution relating to the election of
Schoolboard members and calling the school district general election that's just the general form that directs the clerk to get everything kind of ready to go um used to be a 74 day and now it's an 84 day notice so I figured we would just do that sooner than later to get that taken care
of any other additions or corrections to the agenda move to approve and a second second all in favor say I I motion carries all right um item number three uh Point New School Board member do you
want to just talk through the um mba's recommendation on that sure yeah so the last time the process we followed see that was Robert's Rules of Order um where the first one nominated you had to vote and I just kind of talked to Greg Abbott and said that seemed to be a little
um different because two people who nominated others had to maybe vote no the first time and then we only got through the first candidate and and Greg Abbott said there is one other option where people can nominate candidates who they would like to be voted on and then after all the nominations have ceased
then we could just go around the room but it does have to be a verbal vote it can't be a a paper Vote or anything we just go around the room and you would say your name and who you're voting for and I'll take record of that we do need to have a majority so it would have to be three in favor today to move forward
now if there's three candidates um the last one gets dropped and we vote again so it's kind of how that works so you can use the other process if you'd like to but I I just know I think that process kind of it was surprising after we ran through at once to realize how that worked so but if you want to use the Roberts rule that's fine but my
suggestion would be uh to use the the other process we do have a question to ask the candidates who are here I did reach out to all of them um Joshua was working this morning and unable ble to make it said he could not leave or or join remotely and I wasn't able to make contact with Crystal but I know on the
application it did state that they we were looking for interviews this morning so we do have two candidates here Darren gross and Claire Vincent so if you decide to ask one candidate a question both candidates so if there's any followup questions we'll have to ask both the same
question that make sense all right um so then I guess for the two of you I'll ask the question um why would you like to serve the West Central Area School
District ahead well I guess I've been on the board before I believe I got the experience the willingness and I want to I want to represent the people that live in this district from from the child that is isn't able to vote yet is
hopefully going to be in our school someday to the person that's been tired a long time and is paying taxes in the district and wants to see the best for the the kids that are growing up the kids that are going to leave that make sure that they're ready for the next
level and uh just just make sure that this to help to help this District be great and I think we're good
but there's no question that there's some things that need to be fixed and I'm willing to help fix them and and get get this District to a to a place where um we're attracting
students from not only inside the district from but from outside the district and I think I can do that thank you m all right good morning morning well this is going sound corny but it's
the truth in 2015 I came to interview to be a principal at secondary building and I won't forget that feeling that that morning what I thought about this District I grew up my first site was the apple tree apple orchard and this district has a spark and has many many
attributes that I I told friends and families about it wish my children could have gone to school here they're adults now this is fabulous school district and I still want to be a part of it and I feel like I have a skill set that I could bring to the board that is perhaps a different perspective from others
because I've been an educator for over 30 years and I think that Insight when we're talking about tough decisions is an important piece of the puzzle for us to consider as we move forward with many challenges that West Central and every other District in the nation has right
now thank you thank you um is there there any follow-up questions board or any other additional information no I guess the last for you to is there is there anything else you'd like the board to know prior to the
nominations can ask of you both okay um so then the next question is um do we want to use the way we did last time or would we like to just do the nomination in
V I guess I agre with Paul last time it was pre y I think better okay I agree Paul's recommendation sounds yep all right well then I would look for
nominations to fill the vacancy of the school board seat I will nominate Darren gr okay nomination for Darren gr I'll nominate CL venson any have nomination for CLA vinon V for her okay we'll we'll vote in
a minute right now just nominations so we have two other candidates is there any other nominations for yeah we had Crystal neelson you should have received her paperwork and then of course Joshua yrick any other nominations any other nominations
all right we have two nominations Nathan you nominated CLA okay so at this time we'll take a verbal vote you would vote for the candidate that you um choose and go from there so
we'll go through Christensen gross gross um Porter Vincent Vincent sandstead Vincent Strunk Vincent and I will vote for Vincent as well and that brings us
to majority a majority um so at this point then I guess the one thing I should have said to begin with is that I hope Mr gross that you will put your name on the ballot um we do need every one of these candidates um for our election in
November uh we will have six positions open so please uh don't take this vote today as a anything derogatory it's just simply one vote and and uh um Claire you won't be able to sit at the table until next month's business meeting I think
Falls after the is that correct yeah we have to have a 30-day window for people to challenge the nomination challenge that so 30 days so yeah we have our next meeting the 7th and then the 21st so the meeting on the 21st you would be able to join and actually actively participate I
don't think there's a problem with you being at the meeting to understand what's going on and things like that so but do you we we'll work on that yeah hopefully it won't take as long as it well we should be able to find one of those somewhere yeah do you have your own name
t I brought mine back she should have one in the box somewhere so um but to the other two candidates that aren't here as well please uh please put your name on the ballot we need everybody to be part of this so um don't take that negatively or anything like that so um
as we move forward we'll hopefully fill those seats with good people that want to do good things for West Central Area so thank you both for that and we'll move on now to um committee reports got do the resolution actually oh that's
sorry theol you're absolutely correct so that is outside the vote I've got that as well so we will now let's see whereas a vacancy exists in the office of school board member with
the term expiring the first Monday in January of 2027 um so that's just the legal description of that position correct so obviously this one this appointment expires 2024 correct y yep so okay uh
the vacancy occurred more than 90 days prior to the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November in the year of of the vacancy occurred and prior to the fourth year of the vacant term so pursuant to Minnesota statute section
123b .09 subsection 5B uh Clare Vincent is hereby appointed to fill the vacancy and to serve until a successor is elected and qualified the appointment shall be effective 30 days after the adoption of the resolution
unless a valid petition to reject the appointee is filed with the school district clerk pursuant to Minnesota statute section 123b 09 subsection 5db with that 30-day within that 30-day
time period so we will need a roll call vote Christensen yes Porter yes sandstead yes Strunk yes and Al is a yes now we can move for Comm reports can somebody make a motion in a second on
that that I missed I don't believe so sorry let's back up we need a motion in a second in a second now we are good now we're good sorry about all right um I don't see Mr Anderson here is there
a I think I'll ask him to come to the next meeting um to present so this is about the boundary correction um my understanding as I as I visited with him is there is no loss of prop property or any thing in this it's just getting things corrected after a sale of a recent property I believe but I wanted
him to be here to explain that so I will follow up with him and have him here at the August 7th meeting because there may be some action that needs to be taken as well so I'll just make sure that we can do that my thought was going to be he present today we take action at that August 7th meeting but I'll have him consolidate all of those pieces to have
it here ready to go and my understanding of that information was because we are adjacent to the property with the issue we have to be on that filing as it there's boundary issue with a particular
parcel correct that's no issue there's no issue with our property it just is the adjacent property so we are on that gets that part and we'll move into your report Mr Brown okay so there's going to be two
parts um Aon is also here she'll be on here to present twice but she does have her um Finance report that we'll just kind of include with the superintendent report good news we did receive the funding or 14 seats for voluntary pre kindergarten for South Elementary so
they do have it designated for that building it is 14 seats of course there's qualifications that the students and families have to meet and it only qualifies for our um kindergarten connection program it does not qualify for the little NS program but that'll definitely help as we saw our budget
last month um showing that we were having this slight uh uh issue with funding in that Community Fund so this will definitely help with that piece there property insurance um the big piece there is we did finally get some coverage unfortunately that is at about
a $50,000 increase for our property insurance and that deductible is at a $50,000 deductible I did ask Susan with um Marsh mclenon to see you know if the district decides to maybe increase that deductible would that an option where we
could maybe save some premium and talking a little bit with Maya about this you know do we look and I think maybe even right now with the $50,000 deductible it may be wise for the district at each um budget setting process to maybe designate or commit a
certain amount of dollars so if we do have An Occurrence that we don't have to all of a sudden come up with $50,000 that way and just be prepared not that we need to have a significant dollar amount in there but I think it would just be good practice to make sure that we were ready uh for that Staffing
update we have most of our positions filled we're still working to fill our uh School social worker at the elementary but we do have um someone who was interviewed we're just working through that process there in the part-time music position at South is the other position that we're still looking
to fill otherwise currently all of our positions um are filled and we're ready to go for the upcoming school year so we'll still work hard to get that Elementary position filled and we started to come up with different ideas to to see if there's new ways to fill that as well and then the filling for uh
filing for school board that takes uh starts next or excuse me July 30th through August 13th and on August 13th we'll have the office open the district office open until 5 PM so people can come in and file uh for those seats as a
reminder we have four uh seats for fouryear terms and then the convoluted complex language that you read before that really was to be a four-year term but we're just filling it for the vacancy now till the end of um January and then that new person would be
elected to a two-year term and so we'll have two two-year terms and four four-year terms that'll be up on the ballot this upcoming November 5th and then I'll be on vacation next week the 22nd through the 26th got the Schoolboard filing dates down there and
then our August committee meeting is August 7th and then I know Aon I'm going to have her join us here she does have um the Finance report I apologize it's if you've got a I've got a couple extra packets here I didn't get it attached
yet on the website or on the the electronic document but it is here and she can maybe go through that for just a little bit Aon are you able to hear see maybe I have you unmute no I'm sorry my camera wasn't
plugged in so um doesn't look like it wants to work today but as long as you guys can hear me we can hear you we can yep okay so if you take a look at I do see that I think the
um report I had sent over to Mr Brown low actually States April 30th 2024 but it is the May 31st it's for all of May um information so I apologize for that that the date didn't get corrected but
just some things to note in this budget report is that I did plug in the new revised budget that we had just approved last month so in that second column well there's the when it says revenues by Source there's adopted budget revised budget and year-to date actual so the
revised budget is the budget that we approved in June last month's meeting so total revenues currently for this year the revised budget is at 11,731
930 and year to date as of May 31st we've uh received 10,697 again this is something that we're not going to see our actual revenue for the year until much later once the audit is prepared because we
have to spread our tax levy and account for our receiveables and things so this probably won't match up for a little while just want you to be aware of that um you scroll down our expenditures we had budgeted $1,883
64 and as of May 31st we have spent 9,725 61144 if you scroll down a little bit more it's just the same amount just broken out by object codes like salaries and benefits things like that
um down if you scroll down a little bit more there's the revenues but for our other funds in the Food Service fund we are expected to receive $470,500 and so far we've received $462,000 n this is going to be this was
kind of a tricky one for me with budgeting because of some of the issues we had in food service this year with um they ended up having to take some claims back because we were claiming funds for one of our I believe it was Head Start
there was some I don't know if you remember that Mr Brown though but um there was something an issue with claims and by the time I had done all the Revis budgets I didn't have all that information yet so this one is kind of we'll see how this works out but as of right now we're looking pretty good in
regards to where we budgeted for yeah service sorry yeah we were claiming head starts and we were billing Head Start so we were getting paid twice and we couldn't do that thank you uh community service [Music]
$226,800 received $832 N3 and then if you look down a little bit more the expenditures just showing what we've spent in each fund and we budgeted 1,359 239 and we have spent
$1,399 46 as of May 30th first is there any other questions on that if you look over to the far right I'm sorry the 24 23 23 where it totals it up we're pretty close to Prior
years um the revenue portion of food service and that was just explained why we had little extra funding and stuff in there so and Aon just one of the pieces there when we look at our expenditures and things like that that look like they're
way down so we could have significant dollars coming into the general fund but that still does not include our salaries for our teachers correct and we still have one more month plus our uh salaries for our teachers go through August which are included in the current or the prior
fiscal year is that correct correct you're correct with that y all right any questions or comments thank you Aaron uh then we would look to approve the payment of claims of
$492,000 with the checks um of $484,350 and the wire payments of $852 four cents and just uh clarification on The Wire payments again there was a little bit of an issue
getting all the payroll pulled through we're taking more of that over and so there was an issue with access to get that taken care of so that number would probably be much higher around that $350,000 Mark so that'll be corrected at the next uh board meeting or the regular
board meeting and the claims there if you look at the board checks some of those pieces that Magie pointed out are some larger expenses one is the bargain um Incorporated that's the parking lot refinishing that was about $49,000 uh we did have as well our um
curriculum that we purchased that was just under $86,000 Palmer bus was $12 $1,689 and so those are some of the big ones that would have been included of course we have some subscriptions uh to Frontline region one and other ones that
are included there as well so that's why that dollar amount is significant for this month questions comments move to approve and the second second all in favor say I I motion carries
we'll move on to our consent agenda um item number one would be to approve the meeting minutes that you got from June 20th and from June 25th special meeting um item number two would be to approve the following Personnel hires uh Greg
Anderson summer custodian Payton fagri student worker Erica bordon part-time high school English language arts teacher Chelsea is it gter that's thank you um High School business
teacher and Danielle Marty Elementary secretary um that's it right yep all right so I look for a motion to approve those consent agenda so move and a second
second all in favor say I I motion carries uh old business um considered award propane quotes for 24 to 26 heating season yeah we decided to do a two-year term and I think I got even
more feedback from another person who was interested in uh providing a quote they said it really comes down to the expense of those tanks in the vaporizer um when I talked to our current vendor he said he's probably got about $30,000
invested in both of those pieces so he said for somebody to take that for a one-year um bid is we're not going to probably get too many folks so one person from another vendors said they would be more than interested in doing something for a longer term and maybe like a rent to own on that vaporizer
because most of the um buildings that he works with that have a vaporizer so the equipment's owned by the actual um place where they're putting the the pieces there so I know that our current vendor actually which is Olen oil just updated the vaporizer and that's how we knew the
cost and the four tanks are all his own property it is an electronic vaporizer and uh so the the recommendation is to go with Olson oil and you'll see for the two years it's a118 a half uh for the upcoming school
year and a16 a half for the second school year uh they already have all the tanks there have a new vaporizer there and make sure that everything they'll do uh no pressure test cost they'll make sure that it's a safe operation of the system so recommendation is for Olsen
oil questions or comments on that look for a motion to approve the propane quote and a second second all in favor say I I motion carries um considered reward the dairy
bid for the 2425 school year we feel fortunate that we're actually able to get some bids this year that's been a struggle over the last couple years uh but you'll see that we have two vendors one is Stony Creek Gary they're the um company or the vendor that actually currently does the bulk milk here at the
secondary school and then Farms was one who had provided in the past but due to shipping issues was unable to do it for the last couple years but they were willing to submit a quote the recommendation there as you'll see by cost is going to be for Stony Creek Dairy this will be taking care of both
elementary schools mainly looking for our half pints of milk at both places and we've been very satisfied Andrea said with the bulk milk delivery and things like that so we're looking forward to working with Stony Creek as a recommendation questions or comments on
on that and a second second all in favor say I I motion carries uh new business uh resolution accepting donations uh we have the following donations this month uh Elbow
Lake Fire Relief $500 for change makers Elbow Lake Fire Relief $5,000 for the robotics um elb Lake Fire Relief $1,000 for the north library books Elbow Lake Fire Relief $1,000 for the AED machines
South PTO $182.7 cents for the field trip bus cost Minnesota historic Historical Society $1,122 for the McMillan field trip and the American Red Cross $500 for
scholarship any questions or comments on that I look for a motion to approve the donation Mo and a second and a roll call vote Christensen Porter yes sanstead yes
strong yes and Al is a yes um item number two um is to approve the hire for kayin ol as the elementary teacher at the secondary school um because kin is a relative um we're required to separate this out
and um it also requires a unanimous vote of the board yeah a roll call vote and everybody has to vote so there I think there's been a practice before and I did double check with Terry Morrow sometimes we think the practice is to abstain I that was the practice that I've always used even in my prior District but he
said in hiring everybody needs to vote vote and it needs to be a unanimous vote by a roll call vote so I would look for a motion to hire kayin Al so second and then we'll do a roll call
with Christensen yes Porter yes sandstead yes Strunk yes ory Yes she'll be happy to have a job promise you'll
beier that's a whole another talk um approve the student worker rate uh pay rate of 1185 per hour um you had a little history on that yeah this just kind of um looked at our increases that we've offered to the other employees in
the district and hopefully to keep us competitive as well now remember we do add the $2 for the daycare um because we've had a struggle of finding people to fill that so the recommendation is 1185 I believe minimum wage is 1085 so it just has us a dollar over that and I
think as we hear what other places outside of our area I mean you got to go over to Ferguson Alec we're still going to be well below the dollar amount that they're earning maybe at McDonald's or other places there but this still gets us employees that we need here that are maybe just starting out that could be helpful to the
district questions or comments on that can you define student worker so yep so we would have student workers there would be um sum in or daycare so we have a few kids that help and assist there in once in a while if we have any temporary support or help that we need for example we have
somebody in the office that's helping since we don't to do some of the filing they're also going through all of the uh products that are coming in that teachers have ordered to make sure that that gets all received and accounted for so we can pay the bills and then over to the right buildings and things like that
so those are really it's not a whole lot it's mainly That Daycare piece and some of just that seasonal temporary help um because all the other positions for our student workers like for sumar they're just paid on a stien basis and so all those coaches that we hired um last or back in May or June they're paid that
whatever that STI is it might be $450 for the coaching of su and things like that so it's different from that other questions or comments look for a motion to approve and a second second all in favor
say I I motion carries um item number 8.4 would be to approve the 10-year long-term facility maintenance plan um there's a few items on the in your packet for that
and aon's explain that y okay so this ltfm 10-year plan is something that mde requires us to report on every year um it's just I think for
their benefit to know what schools are planning on using their ltfm funds for and um just so they're aware of it so they can keep track of this LTM spending so I'm actually going to start with the 10-year Revenue
projection and that if you Aon are you Ain are you able to share your screen I will do my best and if you can't that's fine they do have it in front of them and it is in the board packets as well oh there you go okay so if you scroll down
to line 60 or this one right here that I'm on uh 34 grand total ltfm revenue so you can just see it's projected out I mean there they don't know obviously 10 years out what our revenue is going to be but it's just based on enrollment so
you can see we've got $36,250 year 25 37,6 51 um ongoing basically for the rest of the 10 years and these are just a bunch of formulas everything that they use to uh
explain how the funding comes into us all of these and then in this section here here this is The Debt Service so for our ltfm bonds for the next two fiscal years we will have the obviously the majority of
our ltfm funds are going to our debt service funds to pay off those ltfm F bonds that we have and then in fiscal year 27 all of that Revenue that we're receiving will drop back into the general fund and then we'll have some
ltfm funds to use as we see fit for the remainder those 10 years I'm going to switch over to the expenditure report in okay so here's our expenditures what we
um I looked off of basically I went through uh what Diane had had for last year and kind of pull from there in our expenses and what we knew was coming up where we would need to use that funding so this is just the category one saying
how we're going to use the funding that we already get that we already received from the state in the general fund and then um you can see it's already been designated for the ltfm bond so there's
nothing down in this category here except for that small amount that's not going to Debt Service and then again you'll see here are all of our big expenses because now we have that ltfm to spend in the general fund and
starting the um this basee year fiscal year 24 we started out with a negative uh fund balance of 0,96 in the general fund and then you can see as the years
go by we come we get back into the positive I believe in is it 28 yes so we're just having to get ourselves out of that PO um and this is totally projected we did we can't say for sure
that we're going to be in the hole in two three years it's just how we're spending our lt5 Andes it's a our best guess at this point because 10 years old is a long time to be able to know exactly what needs to be done and that is
all any questions questions comments no this is actually approving for fiscal 26 because this will be part of the levy cycle so that's why they're doing it now and then this will be set for the levy cycle that will be starting working on
here for the board in September and then approve in December for the taxes payable in 25 remember that goes to our fiscal 26 budget so it's kind of a long ways out they really want the board to review this to see what our plans are um
and as um Aon said and we're still the ways out before we actually have dollars to be able to use it would be nice to have $333,000 to use toward some of our building expenses but we've taken care of the parking lot and the roughs is the biggest expense out of those ltfm bonds
and so but once that clears out that'll be helpful there as well all right so to start with then we would approve the uh 10-year longterm facility maintenance plan that we just talked about and then
we would also have a resolution that we have to do separately from that for that fiscal year 26 is that correct correct y so first I would ask for um a motion sorry a motion for the
10year plan 8.4 so Mo and a second second all in favor say I I I motion carries and then we will move to the resolution for for that 10 year find that
quickly all right so pursuant um to do call and notice thereof the school board meeting of Independent School District 2342 state of Minnesota was held on July 17 2024 7 a.m. the purpose part of
approving the district's fiscal year 26 six long-term facility maintenance 10-year plan as established in Minnesota statute 2023 section 123b
595 um I would look for a motion for the resolution and a second second all right be it resolved the school board of Independent School District 2342 state of Minnesota approves the attached
fiscal year 26 long-term facility maintenance 10-year plan um and we would do a roll call vote on that Christensen yes uh Porter yes SED yes Strunk yes and Al is a
yes all right then we will move on to um another resolution adopt the resolution related to the election of school board members and calling the school district general election got that one your packet's in a much
better place than my packet's in so uh let's see I don't know if you have to read the entire thing I just about the seats I think how many seats are vacant okay so right up here so um be it resolved the school district of
Independent School District 2342 entral Area School District state of Minnesota as follows it is NE necessary for the school district to hold its general election for the purpose of electing four School Board me four school board members for terms of four years each and
two school board members for terms of two years each so we would look for that motion I'll we'll move to approve and the second
second all right and a roll call vote Christensen yes Porter yes sandstead yes Strunk yes and all is a yes all right and that brings us down to
our discussion item um the wood Seth pre-referendum planning proposal let's see that the very back part of your packet go out in the packet PA yep it did it should be gotten that
yep the wrong maybe I got an extra page back here that's why I started in the middle of the packet Somehow Here we are all my pages back right so in discussing with
width um you know we they did attend a couple of our meetings they came with their um as we move forward now looking at um you know what's the plan they they call this pre-referendum
planning is basically what we would be doing now is we would start the process of figuring out what would what we what we need what we think is the plan so um they kind of have in here their list of um just some of their pre-referendum
items that they cover um and I think if you see in there it says you know the proposal not to exceed $20,000 that and they they charge at their uh
hourly rate for those Services um so I guess that's just kind of where we're at as far as discussion on where are we going to go forward from here well the other thing too I think is
key is it does say if the process leads to a successful referendum and withth is retained for professional Design Services that gets credited back to the district and I think that's what quite a few of these firms that do the pre-referendum this is the only one that I've seen if it's so if it's unsuccessful we still
have to pay right um that way and they kind of lay out the schedule there of what they would be looking to do to move forward you know looks like hoping to have some sort of a recommendation by the end of December you know we had talked about
getting a community task force organized um having them come in and look at you know when school starts obviously how our educational spaces are used and and given an analysis on you know either a how that could be better or things that
needed would be needed to upgrade that piece um so I guess yeah just more discussion on thoughts ideas questions gu I like the timeline I think
that's recation goal of December right I think it's a good plan as well kind of what I've been looking for if we had U any communication with staff members as far as any willingness to
Comm in we talked about having the staff members right not yet no no give ideas on what they would like to see stuff we talk about yeah and I guess I you know I know we talked about being summer and you
know that piece but um you know if if this is the you know if this is the route we want to move forward then I think that's part of that you know we start we start having those conversations in August and and get people ready to get in that mindset so that we can proceed as school begins these would be the things that we're
going to try to you know address or or identify in this process and then um hopefully move forward on that schedule that they kind of laid out there so I think it was a couple things that they said they needed students in the
building to be able to see utilization of space and I thought there was one other piece that they wanted to have students there but think it would be something in our back to school workshops that we could definitely lay out to I we'd start reaching out to folks in advance with emails to say hey if you're interested but I think that that back to school Workshop would be a
great time there at that opening convocation to lay out some different pieces there so people know what our plan is and can be you know interested invested in that yeah I think they were I thought there was something about like traffic flow and how you know yep how it relative to you know you can't see it
today how busy this XYZ hallway is or whatever but yeah I think also the outside right where buses were going I it was that piece there and flow of in and out and drop off and pickup and all those things so um and that's really just a
discussion item at this time um we would probably look to get an approval on that yep I I would say probably at the August meeting I guess I can let them know that if there's definite interest in this and they got a 45 day window there so I'll
let them know and then our August 7th meeting would be at the point that we would look to approve that in case there's any preliminary pieces that they need to start considering and things like that so we can hit the ground running make sense to everyone okay is there any follow-up
questions that you want me to ask them before we because I can do that as well but I think it would be a matter of maybe getting some site visits arranged too in case board members want to go out and I'm going to reach out to that's Cook County Schools I know that their school district right now is putting together they're looking at adding a few
pieces and I know that superintendent from working in my prior District to see kind of what timeline they laid out it's a smaller district and and what advertising they're using to get information out and things like that but yet there's some schools that you're aware of that you'd like to site visit
we can start to get that arranged as well and then I know that Gary the last time had asked about a Ed narrative so we'll start working on getting that piece put together with budget so Aeron and I will work through budget pieces as well as student enrollment to look at the next five to 10 years of projections
for student enrollment as well all right any other thoughts um do we still have a contract that's not done yet before I forget we have two we have two yes yep where are we one I think is very close the other one there
was some parameters that we needed to wait on so we should be very close on those we don't need we don't have to have any meetings so for that that's why I just I don't believe so I'm going I followed up with the one and the other one we may have to okay okay motion to adjourn second
second all in favor say I I motion carries 750 bring paper
