it says superintendent. We are speaking about the interim superintendent, but because of the way the laws are written, it says superintendent in there. I just want to clarify that for everybody to avoid any Well, you're you're ahead of me. I thought, why didn't we write interim it? Yeah. Well, I asked about

this. Correct. As a designated election official. And then my deputy designated election official would be Lindsay Prawl if something kept me from being able to complete those duties. Okay. Very good. Thank you. That was important.
All right, just as a kind of point of note, I guess. Yeah, point of record. Um, now that we have announced finalists for the interim superintendent, uh, we do have a 14 day required waiting period
before we are allowed to make any offers. Um, so that works here. That is correct. We can't do anything for 14 days after the notice that was given today. Thank you, Keegan. Thank you. All
right. There being no other business, I'd make ask for a motion to adjourn. I do have one thing concerning our next meeting in those 14 days. How will we be announcing? Do you have any idea when
we'll be holding that our next meeting to discuss or do interviews just so that public knows what we're thinking about and what the next steps are? Well, this is going to be this is going to get a little bit challenging because typically
the board uh is nonactive in the month of July. And as it turns out, uh, everyone on the board has made some alternative plans for July for what were good reasons. So, I can't give you that
answer today, Mr. Ruster Holtz, but we need to look at that and have some communication about rekindling this because the way it sits right now, uh, people are going to be pretty much out of pocket till the end of July.
But that doesn't change our 14-day notice that a decision is going to be made. Is that clear as mud? Yes. Thanks. I just wanted everybody to know that the next steps are going to be
why there might be a delay. Yeah. I think we'll be in contact with each other and will assist us in scheduling those coming meetings and interviews. Uh yeah, it'll just be a little tricky with with
a lot of us being out of town. And this all just came to light today. The fact that I mean I was considering the fact that I was going to be gone the second half of the month. And then per discussions, everyone has got some challenges during that time. But we'll
we'll just have to work it out and have some communication and uh and and come up with something before the 15th because I may not even have Wi-Fi in Alaska. And if anything, maybe we can schedule something. Um, you can reach out to us
and give us a few days for the first week of August. See where people are, if that even works or if they have any suggestions. Will everyone be back in town for the first week of August? I won't be here the first week of August. Okay. We can also
I can probably do you could probably do phone. Yeah. If we did um virtual meetings on the 15th, right? You said I could do Yeah, if you did virtual to the up until the 15th or the last week of July, I
could do a virtual meeting, too. And if I interject, the 14 days would actually put us past the 15th. As long as it's at least 14 days. So, wouldn't it with it being the second today? Yeah, that would put us 16th. That's that's having given
notice. Now we can't do anything for 14 days regarding that position. We can't hire. We can interview, right? Oh no, but we can't make any decisions. Okay. So we could action taken, but we can interview. Yes. Thank you. Thank you. Interview.
Did someone give me a Was there any other comments? Sorry, David. I didn't mean to cut you out of the discussion. Well, he hung up again. Okay, I'm putting you back on speaker. Okay, he's back. Maybe it was me. I
don't know. Is there any further discussion? Okay, that being said, uh, do we did I get a second? Well, since you were gone, we were talking about doing a virtual meeting just to do the interview. We cannot make a decision within the 14
days, but we could poss. Okay. Well, yes. And so, but we could at least interviews and have a virtual meeting for that. Well, if there's something we can do to keep this ball rolling, I think everyone is up to that. It's just it's it's going to become a
very difficult month to try to arrange anything, but we will work towards that. Could this for this meeting? Could Candace um reach out to us possibly looking for a virtual meeting next Monday with with the agenda being what?
But like I can't do Wednesdays. Maybe with like an interview next week before you leave town, right? Anything's a possibility, but these days are flying by right now. Okay. With, you know, you have a d a
deadline and it it's coming right up. But that I'm not going to rule anything out. everyone can go home and consider the discussions of today and creatively think of a plan to get this ball rolling. Does that make sense? I would.
Yeah. And if you guys are looking at your calendars, maybe next Tuesday or not just or next Thursday in the afternoon just consider Yeah. So if that gives you
some direction. All right. The Tuesday would I'll be at a conference actually about elections. Wednesday through Friday. I think it's important you be Tuesday would probably be No, Tuesday would be good. Tuesday would be good. Tuesday would be good.
Oh, okay. Okay. So possibly next Tuesday. Tuesday like around 4 minutes 8 or 5. I can do any time. will be east coast. So I'm just trying to be super late.
Okay. So anything else? Anything else? Um a motion to adjurnn the meeting. Motion to adjurnn. We have a first. Well, I'm I motion to adjurnn and is going to do second. Okay.
