WEBVTT

00:00.000 --> 00:02.520
704, I will call this meeting to order.

00:02.520 --> 00:04.280
If everybody would please stand

00:04.280 --> 00:06.400
and we will recite the Pledge of Allegiance.

00:11.200 --> 00:14.760
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States

00:14.760 --> 00:18.480
of America and to the Republic for which it stands,

00:18.480 --> 00:21.640
one nation under God, indivisible,

00:21.640 --> 00:23.640
with liberty and justice for all.

00:23.640 --> 00:30.640
Board members, I just, and community members,

00:30.640 --> 00:34.120
I just want to let everybody know that our admin team

00:34.120 --> 00:37.200
are all on vacation except for Mr. Leiderman.

00:37.200 --> 00:40.640
He's the last man standing here in person,

00:40.640 --> 00:43.840
but our admin team are connected virtually,

00:43.840 --> 00:46.320
so you will be hearing from them virtually.

00:46.320 --> 00:49.840
So board members, the request is that when you're speaking,

00:49.840 --> 00:53.320
please use your microphone because that is the only way

00:53.320 --> 00:55.880
that the admin team can hear you.

00:55.880 --> 00:59.960
So we will try this with roll call first.

00:59.960 --> 01:01.000
OK.

01:01.000 --> 01:02.400
Joe Maddock Nelson.

01:02.400 --> 01:03.240
Here.

01:03.240 --> 01:04.240
Angie Shriver.

01:08.680 --> 01:11.880
Kristen Matt Miller.

01:11.880 --> 01:13.280
Daniel Nicholson.

01:13.280 --> 01:14.200
Here.

01:14.200 --> 01:15.120
Gene Adams.

01:15.120 --> 01:16.080
Here.

01:16.080 --> 01:17.160
Mike Parisic.

01:17.160 --> 01:18.320
Here.

01:18.320 --> 01:19.680
Melissa Cornelius.

01:19.680 --> 01:20.640
Here.

01:20.640 --> 01:21.720
Randy Myers.

01:21.720 --> 01:22.720
Here.

01:22.720 --> 01:23.920
Danny Piot.

01:23.920 --> 01:25.440
Here.

01:25.440 --> 01:28.600
Letter D is district mission, and I've asked Melissa

01:28.600 --> 01:32.680
if she would please read the district mission, please.

01:32.680 --> 01:35.920
Mission driven by purpose guided by integrity

01:35.920 --> 01:38.040
defined by success.

01:38.040 --> 01:41.160
Vision, build a proud Anego community.

01:41.160 --> 01:44.840
Model, don't talk about it, be about it.

01:44.840 --> 01:48.000
Thank you so much.

01:48.000 --> 01:49.840
Number two, consent agenda.

01:49.840 --> 01:52.040
Letter A, approval of agenda, minutes,

01:52.040 --> 01:55.360
financial reports, report of retirement and resignation,

01:55.360 --> 01:58.600
report of new hires and overnight school activity trips.

01:58.600 --> 02:00.480
I will be looking for a motion, please.

02:07.560 --> 02:10.320
I like to make a motion to amend the agenda

02:10.320 --> 02:13.040
and move the pool conversation forward.

02:13.040 --> 02:14.680
I think there's a lot of people here

02:14.680 --> 02:17.080
that want to discuss that tonight.

02:17.080 --> 02:21.080
And to be considered of everybody's time,

02:21.080 --> 02:23.600
I would like to move that forward.

02:23.600 --> 02:26.040
OK, we will take that vote to the board.

02:26.040 --> 02:30.200
I'll just remind the board that the discussion is among the board,

02:30.200 --> 02:32.200
not the people that are here.

02:32.200 --> 02:35.960
The discussion for the pool is among the board members tonight.

02:35.960 --> 02:37.320
No open floor discussion.

02:37.320 --> 02:38.640
Sure.

02:38.640 --> 02:45.640
So the motion has been made to move letter G under number four,

02:45.640 --> 02:50.240
letter G before all other business.

02:50.240 --> 02:53.120
And I think, Mike, do you want to add any more to your motion?

02:56.360 --> 02:57.880
No, I just want to move it forward.

02:57.880 --> 02:59.000
OK.

02:59.000 --> 03:02.240
Any discussion or comments of the motion brought to us?

03:06.880 --> 03:11.840
My question I have is, I know Kristen had stated with her work

03:11.840 --> 03:14.720
schedule she'd be coming late.

03:14.720 --> 03:17.480
Did she have a time frame in mind?

03:17.560 --> 03:21.840
If I recall, she said 715 that she would be here.

03:21.840 --> 03:23.520
OK.

03:23.520 --> 03:26.600
Just knowing that I don't know if Ms. Shiber can be here now,

03:26.600 --> 03:27.600
but.

03:32.600 --> 03:36.040
Angie is on the virtual link.

03:36.040 --> 03:38.480
OK.

03:38.480 --> 03:41.920
OK, I do know that Angie was in work in Marquette today.

03:41.920 --> 03:43.640
She let me know last night.

03:43.640 --> 03:47.360
And she would try to come on if she can and if she has the sale.

03:47.360 --> 03:48.240
Service ability.

03:56.920 --> 04:00.960
We can pause for a few minutes.

04:00.960 --> 04:04.880
If the board wishes to, we can take a recess

04:04.880 --> 04:08.560
and hold the meeting until Kristen gets here.

04:08.560 --> 04:11.160
If that's what the board wishes to do.

04:11.160 --> 04:14.640
If we want to move this item forward.

04:14.640 --> 04:16.520
Or we can move it anywhere in the agenda.

04:16.520 --> 04:20.720
If we wanted to move it up to before or right

04:20.720 --> 04:22.920
after the administration reports.

04:22.920 --> 04:25.640
And that would give Kristen a chance to get here.

04:28.680 --> 04:30.080
I'd be fine with that.

04:30.080 --> 04:31.880
So Mike, you want to amend your motion

04:31.880 --> 04:37.520
to move the pool up to after the administration reports?

04:37.520 --> 04:40.280
Yes, that's fine.

04:40.280 --> 04:42.960
OK, so now the amendment to the motion on the floor

04:42.960 --> 04:48.840
is to move the item number 4G after the administration

04:48.840 --> 04:50.160
reports.

04:50.160 --> 04:55.200
Any discussion or questions of amending the agenda?

04:58.680 --> 05:00.000
OK.

05:00.000 --> 05:02.960
Hearing Nader, you're ready for a vote.

05:02.960 --> 05:06.360
This is the amendment to the motion that's on the floor.

05:06.360 --> 05:09.440
Your voting device is now open.

05:09.440 --> 05:11.840
Make sure your name is on the back of your device.

05:19.560 --> 05:20.560
My number 8.

05:39.440 --> 05:44.440
I vote, yes.

05:54.440 --> 05:55.680
That is acceptable.

05:55.680 --> 05:59.040
Would anyone like to change their vote?

05:59.040 --> 06:02.680
Hearing no one changing the vote, the vote is now closed.

06:02.680 --> 06:04.440
And the motion carries.

06:04.440 --> 06:06.040
The amendment to the motion carries

06:06.040 --> 06:08.640
with gene voting yes on the amendment.

06:08.640 --> 06:10.720
Now that becomes the main motion.

06:10.720 --> 06:12.920
Are there any other questions or discussion

06:12.920 --> 06:14.520
of the main motion on the floor, which

06:14.520 --> 06:21.400
is to move item 4G to right after the administration reports?

06:21.400 --> 06:25.080
Hearing no questions or discussion,

06:25.080 --> 06:27.640
the voting device is now open.

06:39.120 --> 06:42.160
OK, would anyone like to change their vote?

06:42.160 --> 06:44.320
The vote is now closed.

06:44.320 --> 06:46.320
And that motion carries.

06:46.320 --> 06:49.080
Yeah, gene, it worked.

06:49.080 --> 06:52.800
So we will go back to item 2, consent agenda, approval

06:52.800 --> 06:54.560
of agenda, minutes, financial reports,

06:54.560 --> 06:56.240
report of retirement and resignation,

06:56.240 --> 06:59.280
report of new hires in overnight school activity trips.

06:59.280 --> 07:01.920
I'll be looking for a motion.

07:01.920 --> 07:04.440
Danny, I've got a question.

07:04.440 --> 07:12.200
I had a question about the new hire in terms of a license.

07:12.200 --> 07:19.000
And I didn't get an answer back by email.

07:19.000 --> 07:26.200
And so I'm not sure if I should not approve that without seeing

07:26.200 --> 07:29.200
that, or if I can remove it from, I'm not sure.

07:29.200 --> 07:31.800
What do you recommend that I do there?

07:31.800 --> 07:34.280
So I know our administration is listening,

07:34.280 --> 07:36.560
and I think they know who you're talking about.

07:36.560 --> 07:41.320
Obviously, we can't disclose the name of the person publicly.

07:41.320 --> 07:46.240
Mrs. Oginski, do you have an answer for that person that

07:46.240 --> 07:48.920
was in question?

07:48.920 --> 07:49.640
I do.

07:49.640 --> 07:53.840
And it's part of operations, the day-to-day operations.

07:53.840 --> 07:57.440
And that person is a new hire.

07:57.440 --> 08:03.520
And it's oftentimes that new hires under that classification

08:03.520 --> 08:04.720
do not come with that.

08:04.720 --> 08:07.840
It's part of the support that they receive

08:07.840 --> 08:11.000
from the district with onboarding.

08:11.000 --> 08:14.280
Oh, so they'll get the license.

08:14.280 --> 08:19.400
But they don't have a license now, basically.

08:19.400 --> 08:20.000
Correct.

08:20.000 --> 08:25.760
It's a very common practice because not oftentimes

08:25.760 --> 08:28.440
do people make the decision that they

08:28.440 --> 08:31.960
want to entertain going into the educational field

08:31.960 --> 08:34.720
until after they've been hired.

08:34.720 --> 08:36.760
But yes, it's very common practice.

08:36.760 --> 08:38.000
OK, thank you.

08:38.000 --> 08:38.500
Uh-huh.

08:41.680 --> 08:46.080
Now, I will entertain a motion for the consent agenda.

08:51.720 --> 08:55.720
I move to accept the consent agenda.

08:55.720 --> 08:59.320
Motion on the floor is to accept the consent agenda

08:59.320 --> 09:04.680
of approving the June 8 special called board meeting minutes,

09:04.680 --> 09:06.680
report of retirements and resignations,

09:06.680 --> 09:10.480
report of new hires, overnight school activity trips,

09:10.480 --> 09:14.640
finance reports for May 26 and June 26.

09:14.640 --> 09:16.440
And consideration of all current bills

09:16.440 --> 09:25.160
checks number 9750 through 9837, an amount of $332,142.08.

09:25.160 --> 09:34.240
ACH is numbers 252601377 through 2520601535,

09:34.240 --> 09:41.160
in the amount of $666,917.88, and wire transfers

09:41.160 --> 09:51.080
the amount of $16,662.50 for a total of $1,015,722.46.

09:51.080 --> 09:53.120
That is the consent agenda.

09:53.120 --> 09:55.200
Any questions?

09:55.200 --> 09:57.960
Randy, would you like to speak to your motion?

09:57.960 --> 09:59.120
No.

09:59.120 --> 10:02.000
Any questions of the motion on the floor?

10:02.000 --> 10:06.680
Just a statement or feedback excitement maybe is the best

10:06.680 --> 10:11.760
word for the number of applicants, 730 and 41 applicants.

10:18.320 --> 10:21.320
Any other questions or discussion for the motion

10:21.320 --> 10:22.800
on the floor?

10:22.800 --> 10:26.760
I need to abstain from a couple of the checks

10:26.760 --> 10:29.560
due to be unemployed part-time at Krieger and Steinfest

10:29.560 --> 10:31.560
and Lamer's Bus.

10:31.560 --> 10:44.720
Check number 148914001430 and 1490.

10:44.720 --> 10:47.120
Deanna, did you get all of those numbers?

10:47.120 --> 10:47.960
Yes, I did.

10:47.960 --> 10:50.560
OK, thank you.

10:50.560 --> 10:53.880
Any other questions or discussion?

10:53.880 --> 10:57.360
With the resignations and people leaving the district,

10:57.360 --> 11:00.640
this is a concern for me.

11:00.640 --> 11:04.080
Are we doing any exit interviews at all?

11:04.080 --> 11:05.520
I know that was something that we've

11:05.520 --> 11:10.000
done in the past years ago, but as of recent,

11:10.000 --> 11:12.440
has that been happening, do you know?

11:12.440 --> 11:14.840
To my knowledge, I'm not aware of that,

11:14.840 --> 11:17.560
but that, again, that is an operational, not a board

11:17.560 --> 11:19.320
level discussion.

11:19.320 --> 11:24.480
So we'll ask Mrs. Oginski to answer that question for you.

11:24.480 --> 11:30.920
So currently, I am not 100% certain in the past we were.

11:30.920 --> 11:33.600
I am sure that you are fully aware, too,

11:33.600 --> 11:37.600
that we still have a vacancy in our HR department.

11:37.600 --> 11:40.440
And since that vacancy happened, I

11:40.440 --> 11:45.480
am not sure if our one person who's holding down payroll

11:45.480 --> 11:48.920
and HR is continuing to do that.

11:48.920 --> 11:50.160
I'm just not sure.

11:56.160 --> 11:59.080
Any other questions of the motion on the floor, Danny?

11:59.080 --> 11:59.960
I just have a question.

11:59.960 --> 12:05.240
So on the resignations here, one of them

12:05.240 --> 12:08.120
being a foreign language, is that now

12:08.120 --> 12:09.960
going to be taken out of the curriculum,

12:09.960 --> 12:14.480
or is there a substitute for that?

12:14.480 --> 12:15.920
No, it's not taken out.

12:16.000 --> 12:19.160
The position is posted on weekend.

12:19.160 --> 12:20.320
And I just interrupt here.

12:20.320 --> 12:23.120
I just want to let you know I'm on through Google Meet.

12:23.120 --> 12:24.760
This is Angie.

12:24.760 --> 12:27.720
OK, Angie, thank you for coming in.

12:27.720 --> 12:31.880
The record will reflect that you joined the meeting at 717.

12:31.880 --> 12:32.880
717.

12:38.480 --> 12:40.720
Are there any other questions of the motion on the floor?

12:40.720 --> 12:46.520
OK.

12:46.520 --> 12:51.240
Then the voting devices before you and the vote is now open.

13:00.280 --> 13:02.520
Angie, were you involved with the discussion enough

13:02.520 --> 13:03.880
to vote on the consent agenda?

13:08.320 --> 13:08.820
Yes.

13:10.720 --> 13:12.120
So what is your vote?

13:12.120 --> 13:17.040
And Nathan will put it up on the screen for you.

13:17.040 --> 13:19.040
Yes.

13:19.040 --> 13:20.040
Sorry about that.

13:23.840 --> 13:27.360
Would anyone like to change their vote?

13:27.360 --> 13:28.320
And the vote's closed.

13:31.360 --> 13:32.400
And the motion carries.

13:35.680 --> 13:39.160
OK, moving on to item number three, administration reports.

13:39.160 --> 13:41.960
I will turn this over to our district administrator,

13:41.960 --> 13:44.560
Mrs. Oginski.

13:44.560 --> 13:45.840
Thank you.

13:45.840 --> 13:48.840
So first, we have the director of business services,

13:48.840 --> 13:50.720
the monthly budget update.

13:50.720 --> 13:52.160
The report is attached.

13:52.160 --> 13:55.800
And Mrs. Fosbinder is present remotely,

13:55.800 --> 13:57.240
if anyone has questions.

14:00.240 --> 14:01.240
Kelly, and this is Mike.

14:01.240 --> 14:02.720
I have a question on your report.

14:02.720 --> 14:05.160
It says the budget is currently tracking, as expected,

14:05.160 --> 14:07.920
as not projecting a deficit at this time.

14:07.920 --> 14:11.280
I guess I'm curious how that works with everything

14:11.280 --> 14:14.480
that's going on with the Aquatic Center.

14:14.480 --> 14:15.480
Yep, that's correct.

14:15.480 --> 14:19.200
And as you are on the board, as you continue,

14:19.200 --> 14:22.280
we haven't had a committee meeting

14:22.280 --> 14:24.200
in which we go through the details of these.

14:24.200 --> 14:26.640
But it's always 10 and 27 funds.

14:26.640 --> 14:28.000
It's not discussing fund 80.

14:34.400 --> 14:37.880
Shouldn't we be looking at all of the district finances

14:37.920 --> 14:38.760
though?

14:45.120 --> 14:49.240
So at the committee level, we review fund 10 and fund 27

14:49.240 --> 14:50.920
every single month.

14:50.920 --> 14:56.720
And moving forward, we can include fund 80,

14:56.720 --> 15:00.200
if that is something that is decided.

15:03.800 --> 15:06.840
Kelly, that would be something that you can speak with,

15:06.840 --> 15:10.040
your chairman, Danny, about going forward

15:10.040 --> 15:11.880
for those new committee meetings.

15:16.200 --> 15:19.600
Can we talk about fund 80 without currently having

15:19.600 --> 15:23.760
a fund 80 employee, like a liaison position?

15:23.760 --> 15:25.560
I know that sounds like a really silly question,

15:25.560 --> 15:28.080
but that's been one of the significant barriers

15:28.080 --> 15:31.680
with the Aquatics Center situation.

15:31.680 --> 15:34.040
Maybe that's something we could follow up on or check in.

15:34.040 --> 15:37.680
I don't disagree with including that in the committee.

15:37.680 --> 15:43.320
But that has been one of two significant barriers

15:43.320 --> 15:45.240
with the Aquatics Center, so just to make sure

15:45.240 --> 15:46.640
we're covering our basis with that.

15:50.960 --> 15:52.520
Kelly, I'll let you move.

15:52.520 --> 15:54.200
I think that's something we would also

15:54.200 --> 15:55.800
need to consult with Davis on.

15:55.800 --> 15:59.840
I think I agree with you, Jill.

15:59.840 --> 16:03.320
Danny, so when I look at the attachment

16:03.400 --> 16:06.600
for the monthly budget updates, is there a way

16:06.600 --> 16:11.160
that we can actually get a monthly balance sheet P&L

16:11.160 --> 16:15.200
from fiscal year to date to the last closed month

16:15.200 --> 16:18.320
so that we can actually see numbers?

16:18.320 --> 16:20.040
I mean, everything sounds very positive

16:20.040 --> 16:22.000
on this informational sheet, but I really

16:22.000 --> 16:23.480
would like to see some sort of number

16:23.480 --> 16:27.600
so that we can actually make decisions in both.

16:27.600 --> 16:30.080
So Danny, those are things that we do at the committee level.

16:30.080 --> 16:32.800
Since there hasn't been a committee with this new board,

16:32.800 --> 16:35.320
that's something that you haven't experienced yet.

16:35.320 --> 16:39.440
But yes, we go through numbers with the budget each month

16:39.440 --> 16:40.640
at the finance committee.

16:44.520 --> 16:47.520
Thank you.

16:47.520 --> 16:49.720
You'll see that at your next committee meeting.

16:54.640 --> 16:56.400
Any other discussion or questions?

17:00.600 --> 17:01.600
OK.

17:01.600 --> 17:05.400
Moving on to item B, director of people's services

17:05.400 --> 17:06.760
and special education.

17:06.760 --> 17:09.640
Ms. Wagner is not present with us,

17:09.640 --> 17:11.840
but her report is attached.

17:11.840 --> 17:13.120
Are there any questions?

17:16.040 --> 17:18.840
OK, item C, director of buildings and grounds.

17:18.840 --> 17:23.120
Mr. Leiberman is present if there are any questions.

17:23.120 --> 17:25.120
I have a question, Jake.

17:25.120 --> 17:30.000
Have there been any movement on the facilities issues

17:30.000 --> 17:31.560
at the aquatic center?

17:31.560 --> 17:33.240
Any of those maintenance issues?

17:41.240 --> 17:42.720
Nice shirt, by the way.

17:42.720 --> 17:43.720
Thank you.

17:48.000 --> 17:52.200
No, after board directive that we are not to operate the pool

17:52.200 --> 17:56.760
at all, I have been nonexistent at that facility at all.

17:56.760 --> 17:59.640
There's nothing that I'm aware of for update.

17:59.640 --> 18:04.160
And I know that the YMCA is operating it in the meantime,

18:04.160 --> 18:06.760
so I don't know what work they've done or not done.

18:06.760 --> 18:10.560
I assume it's pretty minimal, kind of a holding pattern,

18:10.560 --> 18:13.080
if you will, if something broke,

18:13.080 --> 18:16.800
I'm sure that they make sure we could still open the doors.

18:16.800 --> 18:23.320
But prior to that, actually, I want to correct one thing

18:23.320 --> 18:25.760
on that, there was a door operator that

18:25.760 --> 18:27.960
was in question for quite some time

18:27.960 --> 18:30.360
and rate at the same time that the board had made

18:30.360 --> 18:33.680
that directive, Davis, advised me to go ahead

18:33.680 --> 18:38.520
and get that operator finished, so that was completed.

18:38.520 --> 18:40.320
But other than that, there's been nothing else

18:40.320 --> 18:41.320
that I'm aware of.

18:41.320 --> 18:42.280
Thank you.

18:42.280 --> 18:48.320
Just for transparency, to be very clear about that,

18:48.320 --> 18:52.320
the directive was specific to fund $80.

18:52.320 --> 18:55.160
Need personnel needs to be funded through fund 80.

18:55.160 --> 18:58.520
So it wasn't a directive to not have any involvement

18:58.520 --> 18:59.840
from the district with the pool.

18:59.840 --> 19:03.840
We simply do not have a fund 80 employee.

19:03.840 --> 19:06.120
So that is the personnel barrier.

19:12.720 --> 19:19.120
Deanna, let the record reflect that Kristen came in at 7.24.

19:19.120 --> 19:21.840
Are there any other questions for Mr. Leidman?

19:21.840 --> 19:22.640
Danny?

19:22.640 --> 19:24.560
Jake, are we able to ask how is

19:24.600 --> 19:28.360
the construction going on the new elementary school?

19:28.360 --> 19:31.080
Is there any updates we can give the community or board?

19:31.080 --> 19:33.600
Yeah, I mean, I could talk for hours, honestly.

19:33.600 --> 19:36.360
I mean, just some keynotes.

19:36.360 --> 19:40.680
Yeah, I mean, we're probably about 50% of the buildings

19:40.680 --> 19:45.000
dried in, meaning the roof is on, water tight, if you will.

19:45.000 --> 19:48.160
Still some exterior work that has to be done.

19:48.160 --> 19:52.880
Well, the other 50% is going to be dried in in the next,

19:52.880 --> 19:54.080
approximately three weeks here.

19:54.080 --> 19:57.840
They're really pushing hard to get those structures completed.

19:57.840 --> 19:59.640
That's kind of a big milestone in construction

19:59.640 --> 20:03.320
is when you can say that you're dried in and the roof is sealed.

20:07.720 --> 20:10.560
I'm trying to think of big milestones.

20:10.560 --> 20:13.720
A lot of mechanical stuff is set in place

20:13.720 --> 20:15.360
in the main mechanical room.

20:15.360 --> 20:16.880
The secondary mechanical room that's

20:16.880 --> 20:20.080
in the upper level of the academic area,

20:20.080 --> 20:24.880
that's kind of still waiting to be dried in, right?

20:24.880 --> 20:27.840
We don't want to put too much equipment in place there

20:27.840 --> 20:29.720
other than the main air handlers,

20:29.720 --> 20:31.560
because they still have to protect them until they're dried in.

20:31.560 --> 20:33.920
So, mechanically, it's going well.

20:33.920 --> 20:35.880
Excavation is going really good.

20:35.880 --> 20:38.560
They got the driveway cut in out to fifth ab now.

20:39.720 --> 20:41.480
They're really kind of starting to shape up

20:41.480 --> 20:42.720
what the site will look like.

20:42.720 --> 20:44.920
If you drive by, you can see where the driveways are

20:44.920 --> 20:47.360
and the playground area is.

20:47.360 --> 20:48.760
It's kind of starting to take shape

20:48.760 --> 20:51.760
where people could notice that by driving through.

20:51.760 --> 20:53.280
So, that's exciting, too.

20:56.120 --> 20:58.120
I don't know how long do you want me to talk on it?

20:58.120 --> 21:01.960
I mean, committee, we can really go more in depth, but.

21:03.960 --> 21:07.600
Board members, I do want to bring everybody to the awareness

21:07.600 --> 21:10.120
that if you would like to take a tour of the building,

21:10.120 --> 21:13.600
you can do so by contacting Jake and setting that up

21:13.600 --> 21:15.760
a date and time.

21:15.760 --> 21:18.360
Give him a couple days notice so he can make sure

21:18.360 --> 21:22.920
that safety is a big issue so you can let him know

21:22.920 --> 21:26.600
and he can set something up for you to go into or that.

21:26.600 --> 21:27.440
Okay.

21:28.720 --> 21:32.320
How's the improvements at the high school coming along?

21:33.720 --> 21:37.480
Good, Nessie, it's pretty well tore apart right now.

21:37.480 --> 21:38.560
They got most of the air handlers

21:38.560 --> 21:41.320
set back in place in the mechanical rooms.

21:42.240 --> 21:44.760
That was kind of the biggest first milestone

21:44.760 --> 21:46.640
that we wanted to hit is get everything demoed

21:46.680 --> 21:48.400
and then get the new unit set in place.

21:48.400 --> 21:51.480
So, they still have a few smaller ones

21:51.480 --> 21:54.360
that they're aligning and getting adjustments to.

21:55.480 --> 21:57.960
But overall, they're well on their way,

21:57.960 --> 21:59.080
getting them in place.

22:00.320 --> 22:03.920
Fire alarm replacement, they're started.

22:03.920 --> 22:05.040
A lot of the demo's done.

22:05.040 --> 22:06.920
They're starting to reinstall now.

22:06.920 --> 22:07.940
So, that's great.

22:09.520 --> 22:11.680
Exquerading outside, if anyone drives by there,

22:11.680 --> 22:16.280
you can see that site's pretty well unrecognizable right now.

22:16.280 --> 22:17.800
It's pretty tore up.

22:17.800 --> 22:19.280
A lot of stuff getting done.

22:19.280 --> 22:22.000
Krieger and Steinfest is doing a great job.

22:22.000 --> 22:24.320
I think they got three crews on there right now,

22:24.320 --> 22:27.320
Shane said, and they're pushing hard.

22:27.320 --> 22:32.320
So, we're a little too early to know for sure exactly

22:33.160 --> 22:34.640
where we're gonna land for completion date.

22:34.640 --> 22:38.440
Our target is August 17th to be completed

22:38.440 --> 22:40.960
on that entire site with all the work.

22:40.960 --> 22:42.640
I know that that's aggressive,

22:42.640 --> 22:47.640
but that's kind of set by when we start getting staff

22:48.320 --> 22:49.720
occupying the building again.

22:50.880 --> 22:53.040
If we don't have enough time,

22:53.040 --> 22:57.200
we don't get blessings by Mother Nature

22:57.200 --> 22:59.360
to allow us to keep working on it.

22:59.360 --> 23:02.480
We do have plans in place to make sure

23:02.480 --> 23:05.080
that we prioritize the certain areas

23:05.080 --> 23:08.880
to get that building reopened, no problem.

23:08.880 --> 23:11.160
We won't have any issues like that

23:11.200 --> 23:12.760
so we can see at this point.

23:13.840 --> 23:14.840
What's going on though?

23:14.840 --> 23:18.840
It's a very exciting lot of work that needed to be done.

23:21.200 --> 23:25.280
About $9 million at the high school of work getting done

23:26.480 --> 23:29.360
and the majority of that will be done this summer.

23:29.360 --> 23:33.240
So, that's when you break it down by week,

23:33.240 --> 23:37.000
it's close to $1 million a week, so it's exciting.

23:38.480 --> 23:40.280
A lot of work in the short amount of time.

23:40.720 --> 23:43.720
A lot of work that's been in our capital improvement plan

23:43.720 --> 23:46.720
for years that we have not been able to touch.

23:46.720 --> 23:48.160
So, it's a big milestone.

23:48.160 --> 23:51.520
Yeah, and if you kind of look back at where we were

23:51.520 --> 23:54.520
pre-referring them discussions with budgeting

23:54.520 --> 23:56.320
and everything, you know, that high school

23:56.320 --> 23:59.120
wasn't even guaranteed to be done.

23:59.120 --> 24:02.320
It was kind of the wish list if we got favorable pricing.

24:02.320 --> 24:06.240
We would be able to flow into that what I call the 61

24:06.240 --> 24:10.040
category, and then we would be able to do that

24:10.040 --> 24:13.760
category that we talked about a lot, pre-referring them.

24:13.760 --> 24:16.160
So, to be able to get those items done

24:17.320 --> 24:20.400
with no more cost to the taxpayers is huge.

24:23.040 --> 24:25.720
Mike, with the rest of the referendum work,

24:25.720 --> 24:28.880
is it correct to state that the middle school work

24:28.880 --> 24:32.360
is going to happen next year at a later date,

24:32.360 --> 24:34.640
along with the central office construction.

24:34.640 --> 24:35.880
I've been getting a lot of questions

24:35.880 --> 24:37.760
and I guess I don't know the answer to that.

24:37.760 --> 24:40.560
So, if you could share that out for the community,

24:40.560 --> 24:41.880
that's going to happen.

24:41.880 --> 24:45.560
So, both of those projects we did bid out,

24:45.560 --> 24:47.400
I don't think that we got favorable pricing

24:47.400 --> 24:48.880
for a number of reasons.

24:51.680 --> 24:55.000
Sometimes we just didn't get a lot of interest

24:55.000 --> 24:57.640
due to the backlog that other companies have had.

24:58.960 --> 25:03.200
You know, we're not, you know, in a construction hub,

25:03.200 --> 25:04.800
like, you know, the big cities are.

25:04.880 --> 25:09.360
So, sometimes you just kind of fall into that weird situation

25:09.360 --> 25:11.960
where you need a big contractor to do these jobs.

25:12.920 --> 25:15.080
It's too big for our locals and, you know,

25:15.080 --> 25:17.320
it's kind of not the low hanging fruit for them.

25:17.320 --> 25:20.400
You know, if the market has a lot of work,

25:20.400 --> 25:25.160
sometimes they pass on jobs that are perfect fit.

25:25.160 --> 25:26.760
And I certainly understand that.

25:26.760 --> 25:29.600
But at the same time, to be responsible with tax dollars,

25:29.600 --> 25:32.800
Ms. Oginski and I looked at the numbers that came in

25:32.840 --> 25:35.560
and just felt like it was not in line with our budget,

25:35.560 --> 25:38.080
not realistic numbers, had the discussion

25:38.080 --> 25:41.760
with blue design, got their take on it.

25:41.760 --> 25:46.760
We think that we can make a few adjustments to scope

25:47.840 --> 25:51.520
and allow more time for them to prepare,

25:51.520 --> 25:53.280
give them another year.

25:53.280 --> 25:55.080
Every time you move stuff down the road,

25:55.080 --> 25:57.240
you do have some inflation cost,

25:57.240 --> 25:59.240
which is always, you know, part of the equation

25:59.240 --> 26:01.120
that you try to balance.

26:01.120 --> 26:03.240
But the numbers that we got were just,

26:03.240 --> 26:08.240
we felt very outside the budget and not a good spend.

26:08.320 --> 26:10.720
So we're gonna, we're gonna re-bid those

26:10.720 --> 26:12.600
and I expect those numbers to come in better

26:12.600 --> 26:15.440
as far as exactly when that work will be complete.

26:15.440 --> 26:17.680
You never know until you get the final bids.

26:17.680 --> 26:21.320
Contractors will put, you know, completion dates

26:21.320 --> 26:24.640
or timelines or things like that within their bid documents.

26:24.640 --> 26:25.640
So you never know for sure,

26:25.640 --> 26:27.680
but the target is for next summer, yes.

26:28.520 --> 26:32.160
And obviously, you know, with the central office,

26:32.160 --> 26:35.320
again, that's gonna be the last piece of the puzzle, right?

26:35.320 --> 26:37.280
Like we talked about the whole time.

26:37.280 --> 26:39.280
So more to come on that.

26:42.360 --> 26:44.840
And this might be a combined question for you and Kelly,

26:44.840 --> 26:47.200
but is there a deadline to use the funds

26:47.200 --> 26:48.640
for the middle school and central office?

26:48.640 --> 26:51.040
So do we have to get the work done

26:51.040 --> 26:51.960
than a certain amount of time?

26:51.960 --> 26:54.640
Or can we keep carrying that money over

26:54.640 --> 26:56.600
until we get appropriate bids?

26:56.600 --> 26:57.880
I would defer to Kelly.

27:01.000 --> 27:05.120
There is deadlines, but I just wanted to be cognizant

27:05.120 --> 27:07.560
of staying on the agenda.

27:07.560 --> 27:10.400
I'm not sure if we are floating into topics

27:10.400 --> 27:15.120
that are not necessarily on this agenda piece.

27:15.120 --> 27:19.080
So I would defer to the board president on that

27:19.080 --> 27:23.400
or Mrs. Oginski, but I don't want to start adding

27:23.400 --> 27:26.160
into things that might not actually be on the agenda.

27:26.160 --> 27:29.840
Kelly, I just motioned to Danny to put that on here's agenda

27:29.840 --> 27:33.720
for the committee meeting coming up in a couple of weeks.

27:33.720 --> 27:37.280
That's something that you can bring light

27:37.280 --> 27:39.720
to where those are with the referendum dollars.

27:42.040 --> 27:43.920
All right, any other questions for Jake?

27:46.200 --> 27:48.480
I just have one last comment for Danny.

27:48.480 --> 27:51.320
I just wanna make sure that the community

27:51.320 --> 27:54.600
understands the appreciation that I have

27:54.600 --> 27:56.840
and I think all the contractors have

27:56.840 --> 28:00.120
for dealing with some of the inconveniences

28:00.120 --> 28:05.200
we kind of take for granted how important our schools are

28:05.200 --> 28:09.360
to our community and kind of taking that piece

28:09.360 --> 28:11.640
out of the puzzle for even a three month window.

28:12.760 --> 28:17.760
I'm sure ends in hardships that we don't even recognize.

28:18.440 --> 28:20.960
Certainly there are some that we have recognized

28:21.000 --> 28:26.000
that I've heard of and I apologize for any inconveniences,

28:26.400 --> 28:27.800
but really just thank the community

28:27.800 --> 28:30.160
for their support not only in passing their referendum,

28:30.160 --> 28:32.640
but also their tolerance while this project gets completed.

28:32.640 --> 28:34.840
And once we get this work done,

28:34.840 --> 28:39.840
it's gonna be a huge asset to the community students staff

28:41.040 --> 28:43.000
for hopefully another 30 some years

28:43.000 --> 28:45.560
before we have to look at this type of remodeling again.

28:45.560 --> 28:48.600
So thank you to the community for their initial support

28:48.600 --> 28:49.640
and I'm going support.

28:50.520 --> 28:51.360
Thank you, Jake.

28:52.800 --> 28:56.080
Okay, Mrs. Oginski, we'll move on to the next.

28:58.120 --> 29:01.960
Okay, Item D, Director of Technology Report is posted

29:01.960 --> 29:05.720
and Mrs. Mushak is available if anyone has questions.

29:09.520 --> 29:13.000
Okay, Item E, Director of Curriculum and Instruction Report.

29:13.000 --> 29:18.000
Mrs. Stutzreem is available by remote and her report

29:19.000 --> 29:21.440
is attached if anyone has questions.

29:24.000 --> 29:27.480
Okay, Item F, Superintendent Report.

29:28.520 --> 29:29.880
Just a quick overview.

29:29.880 --> 29:32.040
We had our end-of-the-year celebration

29:32.040 --> 29:36.800
and retiree recognition where we had lots of great things

29:36.800 --> 29:40.200
to celebrate for the accomplishments of the year.

29:40.200 --> 29:44.600
We did this as an entire district the day

29:44.600 --> 29:46.640
that the students were present half a day.

29:46.640 --> 29:49.840
The remainder of that day was to celebrate with staff

29:49.840 --> 29:53.960
and our retirees at the volunteer.

29:53.960 --> 29:56.320
We also had a meeting with Sue

29:56.320 --> 29:59.040
to review the bids submitted for FFNE

29:59.040 --> 30:03.600
which is furniture fixtures any for John H. Bradley,

30:03.600 --> 30:08.440
elementary degree and we awarded that bid to EBI

30:08.440 --> 30:10.720
and we've notified them and we're scheduling meetings

30:10.720 --> 30:14.680
to work out the draw schedules and whatnot with them.

30:14.680 --> 30:16.960
Continued staffing meetings with Ms. Fosbinner,

30:16.960 --> 30:19.600
Ms. Stutzreem and Ms. Wagner to determine placements

30:19.600 --> 30:21.520
and openings.

30:21.520 --> 30:25.720
This also includes meeting with Jade to update we can

30:25.720 --> 30:27.520
and follow up with the interview process

30:27.520 --> 30:30.400
during the vacancy in our HR position

30:30.400 --> 30:33.560
and to check in on accepted and declined offers.

30:33.560 --> 30:37.360
It's always typically a daily occurrence.

30:37.360 --> 30:40.360
I think Danny Nicholson can also speak to that

30:40.360 --> 30:43.600
and many days it's multiple times a day

30:43.600 --> 30:46.640
of checking in to see where we are in the process.

30:47.520 --> 30:50.160
Budget and draw schedule meetings with Ms. Fosbinner,

30:50.160 --> 30:52.960
Ms. Moshek and Mr. Leiderman regarding budgets

30:52.960 --> 30:56.080
for referendum work at John H. Bradley

30:56.080 --> 30:57.680
and the high school to make sure

30:57.680 --> 30:59.480
that everything is in alignment

30:59.480 --> 31:02.360
with pay schedules for work completed.

31:02.360 --> 31:04.520
I've submitted our annual calendar report

31:04.520 --> 31:06.800
and we've had a meeting with Mr. Jokes

31:06.800 --> 31:09.280
to determine who the coach for leader and me will be

31:09.280 --> 31:12.120
for Annago and it's very exciting

31:12.120 --> 31:13.880
because we're actually getting a coach

31:13.880 --> 31:17.640
who has done some work in our district before

31:17.640 --> 31:22.120
with through other consulting firms.

31:22.120 --> 31:24.800
So we're very excited to welcome her back

31:24.800 --> 31:27.440
to our staff and our students.

31:27.440 --> 31:30.280
And it's great to have someone that has some familiarity

31:30.280 --> 31:33.040
with our community and our district.

31:34.200 --> 31:36.360
And that's the end of my report.

31:36.360 --> 31:37.320
Any questions?

31:40.240 --> 31:41.080
Okay.

31:41.920 --> 31:43.400
Mr. Krip.

31:43.400 --> 31:48.080
Mr. Jinske, I wanna go back to the curriculum

31:48.080 --> 31:51.240
and instruction because as we were moving on,

31:51.240 --> 31:53.640
Randy was coming up to the microphone to ask a question

31:53.640 --> 31:56.280
and I wanna let him be able to ask his question, Amy.

31:56.280 --> 31:58.240
Just the overall growth,

31:58.240 --> 32:01.480
they talked about the improvement in the scores

32:01.480 --> 32:06.480
for the ACTs and there was certainly dramatic improvements

32:06.600 --> 32:11.280
for between 24 and 25 and 25 and 26.

32:11.280 --> 32:14.400
But going back a few more years to let us know

32:14.400 --> 32:19.400
if that's a trend or just whether 24, 25 was an off year

32:20.760 --> 32:25.320
would be informational that we could follow trends

32:25.320 --> 32:28.260
rather than just a one day period for future reports.

32:29.960 --> 32:33.120
Yes, I can bring future or the past like five, six years

32:33.120 --> 32:34.840
worth of ACT scores.

32:34.840 --> 32:36.880
And I can bring that to the next committee.

32:36.880 --> 32:38.280
But one thing I do wanna highlight

32:38.280 --> 32:40.680
and on behalf of the high school staff and students,

32:40.680 --> 32:41.680
these are their scores.

32:41.680 --> 32:44.360
I'm just the messenger to the board tonight

32:44.360 --> 32:47.040
regarding that and the celebration around that is

32:47.040 --> 32:49.840
there's one part to look at the composite score

32:49.840 --> 32:52.600
and there's another part to look at the students,

32:52.600 --> 32:55.400
the percentage of students who met proficiency.

32:55.400 --> 32:57.000
So when you're looking through,

32:57.000 --> 32:59.160
there's kind of two avenues that we look at our ACT

32:59.160 --> 33:01.400
and create ACT scores around.

33:01.400 --> 33:03.640
So we do know that we need to keep gaining

33:03.640 --> 33:06.360
on our composites or we did go up this year,

33:06.360 --> 33:08.560
but last year I believe we did go down

33:08.560 --> 33:10.360
and I can get that data for you.

33:10.360 --> 33:13.120
But this year we saw an incredible amount of growth

33:13.120 --> 33:16.040
of kids who went over that proficient line

33:16.040 --> 33:17.960
for each of those different subgroups

33:17.960 --> 33:20.960
like English, math, reading, science, et cetera.

33:20.960 --> 33:22.560
So there's two points when we kind of go

33:22.560 --> 33:24.240
through our ACT training.

33:24.240 --> 33:25.800
We really are wanting our students

33:25.800 --> 33:27.280
to be over that proficiency line

33:27.280 --> 33:29.800
and have more students becoming percentage

33:29.800 --> 33:31.880
or having more students over that proficiency line

33:31.920 --> 33:34.200
with percentages and also we want to look

33:34.200 --> 33:35.440
at that composite score.

33:35.440 --> 33:38.040
So I can grab that data for you for next time,

33:38.040 --> 33:40.240
some historical around the ACT.

33:40.240 --> 33:43.240
But this year I will say we had more growth of percentage

33:43.240 --> 33:45.600
over that line of proficiency,

33:45.600 --> 33:47.680
which means our kids are moving in the right direction,

33:47.680 --> 33:50.280
especially our kids meeting three or four benchmarks.

33:50.280 --> 33:51.760
I think sometimes we focus a lot

33:51.760 --> 33:53.600
on the students who need interventions.

33:53.600 --> 33:55.880
The students who might need some extra support,

33:55.880 --> 33:57.600
but this is showing that our students

33:57.600 --> 33:59.680
who are proficient and maybe advanced

33:59.720 --> 34:02.280
are meeting three or four of those benchmarks.

34:02.280 --> 34:04.240
And that's a huge jump that we haven't seen

34:04.240 --> 34:06.240
in the past with our data.

34:10.800 --> 34:11.640
Thank you.

34:12.720 --> 34:13.560
You're welcome.

34:13.560 --> 34:15.480
Jill, you'll add that to your agenda

34:15.480 --> 34:17.200
for your committee meeting.

34:17.200 --> 34:18.040
Come right up.

34:18.040 --> 34:18.880
Thank you.

34:20.440 --> 34:24.160
All right, moving on to item number four

34:24.160 --> 34:26.280
and Kristen, what we have done,

34:26.800 --> 34:31.240
we amended, like made the motion to amend the agenda

34:31.240 --> 34:34.720
to bring item four G up to the top.

34:34.720 --> 34:37.840
Actually, we were bringing that up to the very top

34:37.840 --> 34:39.400
before consent agenda,

34:39.400 --> 34:41.960
but we wanted you to be part of the discussion.

34:41.960 --> 34:45.760
And so the board decided to put that as number one

34:45.760 --> 34:47.240
for board action.

34:47.240 --> 34:49.960
All right, so item number four,

34:49.960 --> 34:53.440
letter G discussion and possible action

34:53.440 --> 34:55.800
on current pool finances

34:55.840 --> 34:57.560
and continued operation.

34:58.640 --> 35:00.760
Searching, looking for a motion, please.

35:00.760 --> 35:05.760
Mr. Chair, I move to rescind the motion made on March 18th

35:06.560 --> 35:10.160
that said only fund 80 would be used for the operation

35:10.160 --> 35:12.080
and maintenance of the aquatic center.

35:14.520 --> 35:15.360
Okay.

35:15.360 --> 35:16.880
I don't mean to interrupt Danny,

35:16.880 --> 35:20.040
but since we've moved this, I've got to get Davis on.

35:20.040 --> 35:23.520
If you all can just pause for just one quick second, please.

35:24.640 --> 35:25.480
Okay.

35:26.160 --> 35:28.400
We will take a five minute recess.

35:29.600 --> 35:32.800
All right, we will come back to order 743

35:32.800 --> 35:37.800
and I will ask Jean to state her motion one more time.

35:41.080 --> 35:41.920
Okay.

35:41.920 --> 35:46.920
I move to rescind the motion adopted March 18th, 2026

35:47.400 --> 35:50.880
that only fund 80 be used for the operation

35:50.880 --> 35:52.960
and maintenance of the aquatic center.

35:56.760 --> 35:59.800
Okay, so the motion on the floors to rescind,

35:59.800 --> 36:01.840
they vote from March 18.

36:03.640 --> 36:05.720
So we need to, and Jean,

36:05.720 --> 36:07.520
would you like to speak to your motion?

36:09.000 --> 36:12.200
Yeah, so on March 18th,

36:12.200 --> 36:16.160
the board was really put in an awkward position.

36:17.480 --> 36:21.280
The information was sort of sprung on them that night

36:21.280 --> 36:25.780
and I think that they felt really like they were in a corner.

36:25.960 --> 36:28.200
And didn't have any choice in the matter.

36:29.400 --> 36:32.400
So I think we do have a choice.

36:32.400 --> 36:37.400
I think we have a long record of clean audits,

36:37.880 --> 36:42.120
20 to whatever, 20 plus years of clean audits.

36:43.280 --> 36:47.800
We've never gotten any kind of a notice or letter from DPI

36:47.800 --> 36:52.800
telling us to stop spending fun $10 on the aquatic center.

36:53.800 --> 37:00.800
I just don't see the evidence of having to make this sudden change

37:00.800 --> 37:03.800
and what we've been doing for so long.

37:03.800 --> 37:07.800
And so I wanted to bring the opportunity back to the board

37:07.800 --> 37:11.800
that we've all had time to sort of these things

37:11.800 --> 37:13.800
and ramifications sink in.

37:13.800 --> 37:15.800
I think we have plenty of wiggle room.

37:15.800 --> 37:17.800
I think we can work with DPI.

37:17.800 --> 37:21.800
I think we can move forward and find a solution that works.

37:22.800 --> 37:24.800
For this school on the community.

37:29.800 --> 37:32.800
Okay, Davis, would you opine on this, please?

37:36.800 --> 37:41.800
So fun 10 can be used for the operations of the pool.

37:42.800 --> 37:49.800
So long as the operations are not part of the community program.

37:51.800 --> 37:56.800
So you can, as was explained back in March, you can use fun 10

37:57.800 --> 38:00.800
for things related to the education of your students,

38:00.800 --> 38:05.800
such as renting out the facility from your fund 80.

38:07.800 --> 38:14.800
You cannot use fun 10 to carry out a community program

38:15.800 --> 38:18.800
or service, which would be a fund 80 expenditure.

38:19.800 --> 38:24.800
If you do that, you will receive a dollar for dollar reduction

38:25.800 --> 38:26.800
in your budget.

38:29.800 --> 38:31.800
It is an ineligible expense.

38:35.800 --> 38:40.800
So if you do this, you are setting yourself up

38:41.800 --> 38:44.800
for serious financial consequences.

38:45.800 --> 38:47.800
And also knowingly doing so.

38:53.800 --> 38:57.800
The reason this wasn't brought to the board's attention earlier

38:58.800 --> 39:03.800
is because my understanding is the board wasn't aware

39:03.800 --> 39:04.800
that it was going up.

39:08.800 --> 39:13.800
We have discussions in March regarding whether Danny,

39:14.800 --> 39:18.800
as the board president, had been aware of who he had appointed,

39:19.800 --> 39:23.800
if anybody to the quote unquote aquatic center board,

39:24.800 --> 39:29.800
and I recall him telling me he did not know of anybody.

39:30.800 --> 39:35.800
We generally didn't know that the aquatic center board operated.

39:36.800 --> 39:41.800
And when I say we, I mean myself and the board members,

39:44.800 --> 39:48.800
I know that administration was at some of the meetings,

39:48.800 --> 39:53.800
but with, again, my understanding is administration was,

39:54.800 --> 39:59.800
was new to the district was trying to understand all of the

40:00.800 --> 40:05.800
ongoings and this issue of.

40:06.800 --> 40:12.800
The fact that it didn't come up I believe until October 25.

40:14.800 --> 40:18.800
When discussions started regard critical maintenance

40:18.800 --> 40:21.800
and how funds could be utilized to pay for the critical maintenance.

40:24.800 --> 40:29.800
That's when the discussions started to shift to how has this

40:30.800 --> 40:31.800
been done in the past.

40:33.800 --> 40:34.800
And can it continue?

40:36.800 --> 40:39.800
And the answer was legally no, it cannot continue that way.

40:40.800 --> 40:45.800
So I understand that there may be clean audits.

40:46.800 --> 40:48.800
I have not seen those records.

40:48.800 --> 40:50.800
I haven't seen what was submitted to DPI.

40:51.800 --> 40:55.800
I haven't seen logs.

40:59.800 --> 41:04.800
The motion back in March was.

41:05.800 --> 41:10.800
To only use funds appropriately.

41:11.800 --> 41:13.800
I don't understand why there would be an objection.

41:15.800 --> 41:17.800
To that motion.

41:21.800 --> 41:24.800
If fun 10 were to be used to.

41:26.800 --> 41:29.800
Fund the community program or service.

41:30.800 --> 41:31.800
That would be.

41:34.800 --> 41:36.800
Highly ill advised.

41:47.800 --> 41:52.800
So can we do something which we know is potentially illegal?

41:53.800 --> 41:55.800
I mean, is that a possibility?

41:56.800 --> 41:57.800
I don't, I don't understand.

41:59.800 --> 42:00.800
What we're being asked to vote on.

42:05.800 --> 42:08.800
Brandi, is that a question for me or Jean?

42:08.800 --> 42:09.800
Either.

42:09.800 --> 42:10.800
Or both.

42:14.800 --> 42:15.800
I can talk.

42:15.800 --> 42:20.800
So Davis, I mean, I hear what you're saying and I'm not surprised

42:20.800 --> 42:24.800
you're saying it because this is very much what you said in March.

42:25.800 --> 42:37.800
Your last line there made it sound like I wanted to spend fun 10 on community services.

42:38.800 --> 42:39.800
And I don't.

42:39.800 --> 42:44.800
The aquatic center is used for the community and for the school.

42:45.800 --> 42:49.800
So I want to use that mix of fun 10 and fund 80.

42:50.800 --> 42:52.800
Just as we've done in the past.

42:53.800 --> 42:54.800
And as.

42:55.800 --> 43:00.800
My understanding schools across the state do with their community.

43:01.800 --> 43:02.800
Facilities.

43:04.800 --> 43:08.800
I mean, I think that there is far more wiggle room.

43:10.800 --> 43:12.800
Than what you are presenting.

43:13.800 --> 43:22.800
I haven't found any wiggle room on DPI's website to say that there's any flexibility of using fun 10.

43:23.800 --> 43:24.800
I know that you like to do research.

43:24.800 --> 43:26.800
Did you find something that states otherwise.

43:29.800 --> 43:31.800
I did not look on the website because.

43:33.800 --> 43:35.800
I keep thinking if there was.

43:36.800 --> 43:38.800
If there was a letter.

43:39.800 --> 43:41.800
From DPI telling us.

43:42.800 --> 43:44.800
To stop using fun 10.

43:45.800 --> 43:47.800
For funding the aquatic center.

43:48.800 --> 43:49.800
Then we would have evidence.

43:52.800 --> 43:53.800
I don't see the evidence.

43:54.800 --> 43:56.800
I hear Davis's opinion.

43:57.800 --> 43:58.800
I value his opinion.

43:59.800 --> 44:00.800
But I simply don't.

44:01.800 --> 44:02.800
I don't see the evidence.

44:03.800 --> 44:08.800
That we have to only use fun to 80 for the aquatic center.

44:11.800 --> 44:16.800
So again, Jean, you can use fun 10 for eligible expenses such as renting.

44:17.800 --> 44:18.800
The space.

44:19.800 --> 44:20.800
For your students use.

44:23.800 --> 44:24.800
Which has been happening.

44:25.800 --> 44:27.800
You cannot use fun 10.

44:28.800 --> 44:30.800
To pay for things like.

44:31.800 --> 44:32.800
The YMCA.

44:33.800 --> 44:34.800
Or.

44:37.800 --> 44:38.800
For.

44:39.800 --> 44:40.800
Staff.

44:41.800 --> 44:42.800
You supervise.

44:43.800 --> 44:44.800
The community swim times.

44:45.800 --> 44:46.800
Those would be ineligible expenses.

44:51.800 --> 44:52.800
All right, though.

44:52.800 --> 44:55.800
So that nips that you're talking about is a curve.

44:57.800 --> 44:59.800
But and as district administration.

45:00.800 --> 45:02.800
Just went through with its auditor.

45:03.800 --> 45:05.800
So another third party who has.

45:06.800 --> 45:07.800
No interest in that.

45:08.800 --> 45:10.800
Has determined that the expenses spent this year.

45:20.800 --> 45:21.800
As properly coded.

45:24.800 --> 45:25.800
Resulted in.

45:26.800 --> 45:27.800
A deficit.

45:27.800 --> 45:28.800
A deficit.

45:33.800 --> 45:37.800
And so that properly coded Davis, who's determining that.

45:39.800 --> 45:41.800
The auditor who.

45:41.800 --> 45:45.800
The auditor with information provided to them by whom.

45:49.800 --> 45:50.800
The district's records.

45:58.800 --> 46:00.800
I would like to just chime in here.

46:00.800 --> 46:02.800
So with that exchange right there.

46:02.800 --> 46:04.800
So with the district records.

46:04.800 --> 46:10.800
So if we are records were in able to produce accurate financials last year.

46:10.800 --> 46:12.800
How can we say that our financials.

46:12.800 --> 46:16.800
And our inputs on the accounting side are accurate.

46:16.800 --> 46:27.800
I think a further question would be.

46:27.800 --> 46:32.800
Has the record keeping accurately been maintained since the inception of the pool.

46:32.800 --> 46:34.800
More specifically operational.

46:34.800 --> 46:36.800
Items for pool use.

46:37.800 --> 46:39.800
Looking at that longevity.

46:40.800 --> 46:44.800
And I do not know.

46:55.800 --> 46:57.800
So Danny, I'm going to give you an example.

46:57.800 --> 46:59.800
In the past.

46:59.800 --> 47:04.800
There was not staff coded to fund 80.

47:04.800 --> 47:07.800
That were maintaining.

47:08.800 --> 47:10.800
The pool.

47:10.800 --> 47:13.800
Maintenance. They were providing maintenance.

47:16.800 --> 47:20.800
To the pool and their salary was not coded to fund 80.

47:20.800 --> 47:26.800
That is an example of it being coded to fund 10 when it needed to be coded to fund 80.

47:26.800 --> 47:31.800
So when you see that there wasn't as much of a deficit in the past.

47:31.800 --> 47:33.800
Since the inception of the pool.

47:34.800 --> 47:38.800
It's because those types of expenses were not being coded to fund 80.

47:40.800 --> 47:46.800
They're being coded to fund 10 so that there wouldn't be a deficit or less of a deficit.

47:52.800 --> 47:59.800
So have we gone farther back than the last year to see how much in proper coding has taken place in house.

48:04.800 --> 48:07.800
I wasn't in the district.

48:07.800 --> 48:10.800
Since the inception of the pool.

48:10.800 --> 48:13.800
Or in a financial role.

48:13.800 --> 48:16.800
In which I would be able to know those answers.

48:16.800 --> 48:20.800
So right now what we are doing is working with DPI.

48:20.800 --> 48:28.800
We are working with our auditors and we are working with legal counsel to ensure that all the expenditures that the pool.

48:29.800 --> 48:33.800
Encounters are coded correctly to fund 80.

48:37.800 --> 48:43.800
So now I believe you did state that you have been in the district for a little over two years.

48:43.800 --> 48:50.800
So and I believe back in one of March or April Davis did reference you as the liaison between the pool and the school.

48:51.800 --> 48:58.800
So if we had by monthly meetings at the school board or the pool board and you were the liaison.

48:58.800 --> 49:03.800
Wouldn't we have known something had been going on for the last two years.

49:03.800 --> 49:09.800
How are we how can we say that are counting and everything what you just said you are not in the district.

49:09.800 --> 49:13.800
But you have been in the district for the last two years.

49:13.800 --> 49:19.800
And you were the liaison as outlined by Davis in the previous meetings.

49:20.800 --> 49:26.800
My role with the aquatic center was to let them know where their budgets stood.

49:26.800 --> 49:32.800
So the very first year in which I was here the budget was already created.

49:32.800 --> 49:37.800
The processes were already happening with how things were being coded.

49:37.800 --> 49:46.800
I think so Kelly not to interrupt but what really opened our eyes to this was when we asked DPI if we could use 46 for them.

49:46.800 --> 49:53.800
For the maintenance correct for a capital improvement. That's when that's when this all came to light.

49:53.800 --> 50:02.800
Yes. And the pool the aquatic center board has been reported since I've come to the district that they've been operating in a deficit.

50:02.800 --> 50:11.800
And so those things have been reported to the board. It's just now that we are identifying all of the expenditures that haven't been coded.

50:12.800 --> 50:22.800
The deficit is much larger and the funds have been used as a much quicker rate.

50:22.800 --> 50:26.800
So have we been operating fund 80 in a deficit.

50:26.800 --> 50:30.800
For years and it's just now being brought to our attention.

50:30.800 --> 50:35.800
Is that what I'm getting from that statement? I thought we couldn't let fund 80 go to negative.

50:35.800 --> 50:40.800
But if it's been operating at a deficit for years, how has that not been caught?

50:41.800 --> 50:50.800
So fund 80 operated deficit in his first year back in 2004.

50:50.800 --> 50:53.800
Fire call correctly.

50:53.800 --> 50:56.800
And then the levy was instituted.

50:56.800 --> 51:01.800
And then that levy continued to increase to cover the deficit.

51:01.800 --> 51:06.800
I think it steadily increased for like five to six years.

51:07.800 --> 51:09.800
And then.

51:09.800 --> 51:11.800
I'm not sure.

51:11.800 --> 51:17.800
There certainly at times were.

51:17.800 --> 51:23.800
Somebody set aside within fund 80 because at least at the beginning of this year.

51:23.800 --> 51:29.800
There was a fund balance of a hundred and fifty thousand. Is that correct, Kelly?

51:29.800 --> 51:32.800
Yes.

51:33.800 --> 51:37.800
So we knew going to, I guess.

51:37.800 --> 51:41.800
Deductive reasoning says if you had a hundred and fifty thousand dollar fund balance,

51:41.800 --> 51:47.800
you weren't at a deficit at the beginning year, but now you are.

51:47.800 --> 51:53.800
Sure. So on the report that I am looking at, so did we, you said a hundred and fifty, but the fund balance.

51:53.800 --> 52:01.800
Starting was a hundred and twenty three thousand seven hundred and sixty four dollars and twenty eight cents.

52:01.800 --> 52:04.800
There's some inaccuracies on that.

52:04.800 --> 52:10.800
Yeah, I do have, I mean, there are some questions I have about that because the last year doesn't.

52:10.800 --> 52:16.800
When you take the starting fund balance for the twenty four twenty five and then you add the total.

52:16.800 --> 52:22.800
Revenues and other financial sources that does come out when you subtract the expenses.

52:22.800 --> 52:29.800
What that year was, but then last year going into this year, there are discrepancies back and forth on that.

52:29.800 --> 52:36.800
So I don't, I sitting here looking at this, I don't understand how with discrepancies like that.

52:36.800 --> 52:44.800
We can't have some sort of temporary resolution where we meet with the foundation on a monthly basis.

52:44.800 --> 52:52.800
We provide budgets to them. They provide budgets to us. We meet in the middle and we can ask for funds along the way.

52:52.800 --> 52:55.800
Is that an option?

53:00.800 --> 53:07.800
Because I think, I think if we're going to ask the foundation for large sums of money, we have to be able to provide.

53:07.800 --> 53:14.800
Good accurate budgets or be willing to have conversations on the inaccuracies of our budget.

53:14.800 --> 53:24.800
So I'm just going to stop there. There aren't inaccuracies on the budget, but when you have a budget right now your fiscal year doesn't end until.

53:24.800 --> 53:34.800
June 30th, that means all of your utilities that are operating your pool for this is just one example goes through June 30th.

53:34.800 --> 53:42.800
You aren't going to get that bill until July. That means this budget is always living and breathing until.

53:42.800 --> 53:52.800
July or August when you're getting all of your final bills, all of your final expenditures, all of your final revenues, and those are.

53:52.800 --> 53:55.800
Done and you close out the books.

53:55.800 --> 54:13.800
So right now, as the budget stands as it is, that's why there are different numbers each time you ask, and that is very typical of a budget throughout the year is always living and breathing until the books get closed out and they get finalized through your audit.

54:13.800 --> 54:25.800
So right now you're operating at a deficit, and even if you get all of your revenues, you will still be operating at a deficit.

54:25.800 --> 54:30.800
And the pool since I've been here has been operating at a deficit.

54:30.800 --> 54:39.800
Now you did have a fund balance that for lack of a better example is much like a savings account,

54:40.800 --> 54:46.800
but your operational expenses with how much revenue and how much expenditures you have each year is operating at a deficit.

54:46.800 --> 55:01.800
Now, that is why it still was able to stay open according to DPI because you did have a fund balance that fund balance is now depleted because all of the accurate expenditures are being allocated to the correct funds.

55:02.800 --> 55:13.800
So, Kelly, this is Jean. I just have a question about clarification because you're using the word budget in a way that is unfamiliar to me.

55:13.800 --> 55:24.800
To me, a budget is something that gets set at the beginning of the year and it's in stone and it does not change month to month to month, day to day, whatever your expenditures may.

55:25.800 --> 55:32.800
But to me, that's what a budget is, and now you're using the word budget as if it's a moving, flowing thing.

55:32.800 --> 55:36.800
A budget is set by the board and can only be amended by the board.

55:36.800 --> 55:41.800
Am I misunderstanding the word budget?

55:46.800 --> 55:50.800
I don't think you are, Jean. That's how I also interpret it.

55:54.800 --> 56:00.800
Okay, so I can't predict what 12 months of electric bills are going to be for the pool.

56:00.800 --> 56:14.800
So what you do when you set a budget number is you look at the history of what your electric bills have been and you apply an increase because generally your electric bills increase.

56:15.800 --> 56:26.800
And so your budget number is your best estimate of what you believe that based on all of the facts that you have, what your electric bills are going to be much like your home.

56:26.800 --> 56:41.800
You don't know exactly what your electric bills are going to be or your heat could be a colder winter could be a warmer winter you're setting your cell your budget up based on what the facts are that you have at the time.

56:41.800 --> 56:54.800
So when you set your budget numbers that's what those are as your expenditures and your invoices and your bills come in much like there might be a tile that breaks randomly because of somebody dropped something or something like that.

56:54.800 --> 57:05.800
That has to be fixed. You're not going to be able to predict that that's going to happen when you set your budget in October that you might have a tile break in March.

57:05.800 --> 57:14.800
So those are the types of examples that happen when you set a budget and then you have your actual invoices come in and your actual revenues come in.

57:14.800 --> 57:23.800
You can't predict if 12 or 15 people are going to buy an annual membership or they're going to buy a monthly or maybe they're not going to buy any at all.

57:23.800 --> 57:26.800
So those aren't things that you can predict.

57:27.800 --> 57:35.800
You have to set your budget on what all the facts that you absolutely have and then it's your best estimate going from there.

57:35.800 --> 57:37.800
Yep, I agree with all of that.

57:37.800 --> 57:45.800
I'm just concerned now that this that the columns in the budget sheet which is a different agenda item that this pay budget at the top.

57:45.800 --> 57:55.800
Now I don't know if they really mean budget or if they mean you know expenditures or adjusted or something else.

57:56.800 --> 58:07.800
So that's a great question gene. If you look at the handout that I gave you all last meeting, you'll see at the top fiscal year to date activity.

58:07.800 --> 58:11.800
So look at the 2526 fiscal year to date activity.

58:11.800 --> 58:16.800
That isn't the budget of what we set where we thought the best estimate was.

58:16.800 --> 58:24.800
That's what your actual numbers are to that date, which that date was on June 15.

58:25.800 --> 58:37.800
If I was to have a column with the word budget on it, then you would see what we believe the best numbers were going to be as compared to the fiscal year to date activity.

58:37.800 --> 58:48.800
But we just put the actual bill so that you would have an actual sense of what the budget or what the actual numbers are in the budget as of that date.

58:48.800 --> 59:01.800
While I believe all this information is pertinent to us to make a decision, I don't believe it's directly related to the motion on the floor.

59:01.800 --> 59:11.800
And if we're going to look at that, I think yes, it's important to note we did have clean audits all along.

59:12.800 --> 59:20.800
But I don't know now that we have been in contact with DPI and we're waving our flags and saying, hey, we're doing this wrong.

59:20.800 --> 59:23.800
Audits might come out a little bit differently.

59:23.800 --> 59:31.800
When you say to the police officer, hey, I was speeding back there, they might look at your car a little bit differently next time.

59:32.800 --> 59:36.800
And as far as I'm aware, the laws have not changed.

59:36.800 --> 59:42.800
We can still, the initial motion did not say we couldn't use Fund 10 at all.

59:42.800 --> 59:47.800
It just needed to be used legally.

59:47.800 --> 59:55.800
So I'm not sure while all this information is relevant to us making an end decision, I don't know that it's pertinent to the motion on the floor.

59:55.800 --> 01:00:04.800
The motion that was adopted March 18th said that only Fund 80 would be used for the operation and maintenance of the Aquatic Center.

01:00:04.800 --> 01:00:12.800
The motion on March 18th says to approve funding at the direction of legal counsel, only Fund 80 would be used for operation and maintenance of the Aquatic Center.

01:00:12.800 --> 01:00:17.800
And all other funds be utilized in a matter consistent with the law.

01:00:17.800 --> 01:00:24.800
Direct administration to work with legal counsel to develop a plan of action for the continued operation and maintenance of the Aquatic Center.

01:00:24.800 --> 01:00:26.800
That's the motion that was there.

01:00:26.800 --> 01:00:43.800
So I agree with what Kristen has brought out that it does direct us to use Fund 80 for the Aquatic Center, but it does not limit Fund 10 to be used as long as Fund 10 is being used in consistent with the law.

01:00:43.800 --> 01:01:05.800
So for my standpoint, I will vote no on this recension because the motion in March 18th gives the administration and the board the latitude to spend Fund 10 money as consistent with the law.

01:01:06.800 --> 01:01:14.800
Any other discussion of the motion on the floor, which is to rescind the motion from May the 18th.

01:01:14.800 --> 01:01:16.800
March March.

01:01:16.800 --> 01:01:19.800
I'm sorry. Thank you. March the 18th.

01:01:23.800 --> 01:01:26.800
All right. Hearing no other discussion.

01:01:27.800 --> 01:01:29.800
Nate, are we ready for a vote?

01:01:29.800 --> 01:01:30.800
Okay.

01:01:30.800 --> 01:01:34.800
Can you just clarify what a yes vote means and no vote.

01:01:34.800 --> 01:01:38.800
A yes vote means that you want to rescind the motion from March the 18th.

01:01:38.800 --> 01:01:43.800
A no vote means that you do not want to rescind the motion from March the 18th.

01:01:47.800 --> 01:01:48.800
Is everybody ready?

01:01:48.800 --> 01:01:50.800
The voting device is now open.

01:01:56.800 --> 01:02:09.800
Okay, would anyone like to change their vote?

01:02:09.800 --> 01:02:12.800
The vote is now closed.

01:02:12.800 --> 01:02:18.800
We have three yes and five no's that motion fails.

01:02:19.800 --> 01:02:22.800
I'm sorry.

01:02:22.800 --> 01:02:26.800
We'll go back to our agenda.

01:02:27.800 --> 01:02:50.800
Okay, discussion and possible action on current pool finances and continue to operations.

01:02:50.800 --> 01:02:52.800
I will be looking for a motion.

01:02:57.800 --> 01:03:11.800
I'll make the motion that we move to adopt the resolution on continued operations of the Clara R. McKenna Aquatic Center as presented.

01:03:11.800 --> 01:03:21.800
And to speak to that motion is all of you have received the handout from Davis that was prepared.

01:03:22.800 --> 01:03:29.800
It gives the opportunity for the aquatic center to remain open.

01:03:29.800 --> 01:03:38.800
And what I'd like to do is ask our board clerk to read the resolution on the continued operations of the Clara R McKenna Aquatic Center.

01:03:38.800 --> 01:03:41.800
Mike, do you have that in front of you?

01:03:41.800 --> 01:03:44.800
We have 34 pages here, so I'm looking for.

01:03:44.800 --> 01:03:51.800
Things on page 32, but it might be it may have the May or the June 15 date.

01:03:51.800 --> 01:03:55.800
And I have one here for the 22nd date.

01:03:55.800 --> 01:04:13.800
Here's the one with the correct date.

01:04:13.800 --> 01:04:17.800
Our board clerk is preparing to read the resolution.

01:04:17.800 --> 01:04:21.800
I do want the record to reflect that it's 754.

01:04:21.800 --> 01:04:26.800
Deanna, let the record reflect that Angie joined us in person.

01:04:26.800 --> 01:04:28.800
I took record of it.

01:04:28.800 --> 01:04:32.800
Thank you.

01:04:32.800 --> 01:04:36.800
Danny, I just would like to let you know.

01:04:36.800 --> 01:04:39.800
Randy, do you have that attachment?

01:04:40.800 --> 01:04:42.800
Yes.

01:04:42.800 --> 01:04:43.800
Okay.

01:04:43.800 --> 01:04:50.800
Resolution continued operation of Clara McKenna Aquatic Center.

01:04:50.800 --> 01:04:53.800
Somebody's going to read it and I'm going to follow it.

01:04:53.800 --> 01:04:58.800
Melissa does not have that.

01:05:10.800 --> 01:05:19.800
Resolution on continued operations of the Clara R McKenna Aquatic Center.

01:05:19.800 --> 01:05:28.800
Mike, can you hold just one second, please?

01:05:29.800 --> 01:05:46.800
Thank you, Mike.

01:05:46.800 --> 01:05:53.800
Whereas the district operates the Clara R McKenna Aquatic Center, the pool as a community program under fund 80.

01:05:53.800 --> 01:05:59.800
Whereas the pool has at least for the 2526 school year operated at a deficit.

01:05:59.800 --> 01:06:09.800
And whereas the pool board desires to advise the administration and community of its decision with respect to the continued operations of the pool.

01:06:09.800 --> 01:06:15.800
Now therefore be it resolved by the school board of the district as follows.

01:06:15.800 --> 01:06:20.800
For the pool to remain open under the school board approved community program fund 80.

01:06:20.800 --> 01:06:26.800
The following directives are issued to administration and the following must occur.

01:06:26.800 --> 01:06:29.800
Administration is directed to execute the info.

01:06:29.800 --> 01:06:31.800
Mike, can you pause just for a minute?

01:06:31.800 --> 01:06:36.800
It's really important to read the number one in the letter A, so we keep those together.

01:06:36.800 --> 01:06:38.800
Thank you.

01:06:39.800 --> 01:06:49.800
One a administration is directed to execute the enclosed contract with the what's in YMCA outsourcing the pools general operations to the Woodstone YMCA.

01:06:49.800 --> 01:06:58.800
And one B the district must receive revenue by way of donations or other revenue streams in the amount of $75,000.

01:06:59.800 --> 01:07:01.800
By June 30th, 2026.

01:07:01.800 --> 01:07:07.800
So fund 80 does not operate at a deficit for the 2526 school year.

01:07:07.800 --> 01:07:17.800
And one C the district must receive revenue by the way of donations or other revenue streams in the amount of $250,000.

01:07:18.800 --> 01:07:20.800
By July 1st, 2026.

01:07:20.800 --> 01:07:27.800
So fund 80 may continue to operate in a cash flow positive manner in the 2627 school year.

01:07:27.800 --> 01:07:37.800
And one D the district shall further consider imposing a previously imposed $300,000 tax levy.

01:07:38.800 --> 01:07:48.800
Number two, if items one B through one C do not occur on or before the dates indicated.

01:07:48.800 --> 01:07:54.800
The pool shall cease further operations until further notice.

01:07:54.800 --> 01:08:05.800
An administration shall notify the Woodstone YMCA that the pools operational fund is depleted and the contract terminated.

01:08:06.800 --> 01:08:18.800
Three, the district will receive and consider any and all offers to purchase the pool by a nonprofit and for profit entities alike.

01:08:20.800 --> 01:08:26.800
Adopted and approved this 22nd day of June 2026.

01:08:26.800 --> 01:08:29.800
Thank you Mike for reading all of that.

01:08:29.800 --> 01:08:38.800
So the motion on the floor is to approve that document of the resolution on continued operations of the Clara R.

01:08:38.800 --> 01:08:40.800
McKenna Aquatic Center.

01:08:40.800 --> 01:08:43.800
We'll direct all of our discussion toward that motion.

01:08:43.800 --> 01:08:45.800
I move to amend the motion.

01:08:45.800 --> 01:08:46.800
Okay.

01:08:46.800 --> 01:08:49.800
Will the member please state the amendment.

01:08:49.800 --> 01:08:51.800
Removing number three.

01:08:51.800 --> 01:08:58.800
The district will receive and consider any and all offers to purchase the pool by nonprofit and for profit entities alike.

01:08:59.800 --> 01:09:07.800
Okay. We have an amendment on the floor in the resolution to strike number three.

01:09:07.800 --> 01:09:16.800
The district will receive and consider any and all offers to purchase the pool by nonprofit and for profit entities alike.

01:09:16.800 --> 01:09:19.800
Jean, would you like to speak to your amendment?

01:09:19.800 --> 01:09:20.800
No. Thank you.

01:09:20.800 --> 01:09:24.800
Okay. We need to direct all of our attention to the amendment that's on the floor.

01:09:24.800 --> 01:09:30.800
And that is just to strike line number three in the resolution.

01:09:30.800 --> 01:09:34.800
Are there any questions or discussion of the amendment?

01:09:34.800 --> 01:09:35.800
Randy?

01:09:35.800 --> 01:09:36.800
No.

01:09:36.800 --> 01:09:38.800
Kristen.

01:09:38.800 --> 01:09:47.800
First of all, it just says that we would receive and consider offers not accept any offer.

01:09:48.800 --> 01:10:00.800
All along when we've discussed the pool, we've talked about how great it is for our community and for increasing economic development, increasing employee pools.

01:10:00.800 --> 01:10:05.800
And to me, this is really a community issue more than it is a school issue.

01:10:05.800 --> 01:10:10.800
So I would like to give the opportunity to the county or the city to step in.

01:10:10.800 --> 01:10:14.800
And if they were to purchase the pool, I think that's something that we need to seriously consider.

01:10:15.800 --> 01:10:20.800
As it is more, like I said, a community issue versus a school issue.

01:10:20.800 --> 01:10:27.800
And I would like to know if they are willing to put some skin in the game and maybe help out with this situation.

01:10:27.800 --> 01:10:30.800
So I think that that's something that we should keep on the floor.

01:10:30.800 --> 01:10:34.800
And for that reason, I don't think we should take the amendment.

01:10:34.800 --> 01:10:37.800
I'd like to further speak.

01:10:37.800 --> 01:10:40.800
I disagree with that comment.

01:10:40.800 --> 01:10:44.800
The county and city have not supported the board.

01:10:44.800 --> 01:10:50.800
I think it's highly unlikely either of them are going to step forward and purchase this building.

01:10:50.800 --> 01:10:55.800
I think that's almost an impossibility.

01:10:55.800 --> 01:11:01.800
Any other questions or discussion of the amendment that's on the floor?

01:11:02.800 --> 01:11:10.800
I also do not support the amendment simply because it imposes limitations on us.

01:11:10.800 --> 01:11:14.800
I know it's been brought up several times with the YMCA purchase the pool.

01:11:14.800 --> 01:11:20.800
I do believe the YMCA shared in a task force meeting a while back that pools are subsidized.

01:11:20.800 --> 01:11:23.800
So they have no interest because we simply have a pool.

01:11:23.800 --> 01:11:27.800
We don't have other activities or programming that goes along with it.

01:11:27.800 --> 01:11:35.800
But the YMCA has maintained a great working relationship and continues to operate our pool.

01:11:35.800 --> 01:11:42.800
Perhaps that's something that they may want to consider and they have first-hand knowledge and experience of operating our pool.

01:11:42.800 --> 01:11:44.800
So that would take that potential out.

01:11:44.800 --> 01:11:53.800
I also agree with Kristen in the sense that the city and the county have been on the task force.

01:11:53.800 --> 01:12:00.800
This discussion has never centered on the importance of academic achievement in student outcomes.

01:12:00.800 --> 01:12:04.800
It has focused on the importance of the community in this board.

01:12:04.800 --> 01:12:11.800
Regardless of current members or previous members have all stated the importance of the pool for our community.

01:12:12.800 --> 01:12:21.800
Therefore to continue that discussion and even the discussion further but in terms of skin in the game

01:12:21.800 --> 01:12:40.800
to offer and maintain a sort of amenity to our community that amenity ideally has a collaborative combined effort from taxpayers.

01:12:40.800 --> 01:12:43.800
So at the end of the day it's taxpayer monies.

01:12:43.800 --> 01:12:50.800
Let's all have skin in the game to promote and maintain a community gem that we have in place.

01:12:50.800 --> 01:12:55.800
So I'm not in favor of the amendment because I don't want to set up limitations for ourselves.

01:12:55.800 --> 01:13:01.800
Also the foundation has shared a lot and they have a lot of knowledge.

01:13:01.800 --> 01:13:08.800
Quite honestly I think the foundation or members of would be excellent at running the Aquatic Center.

01:13:08.800 --> 01:13:13.800
That would also remove that potential should there be interest there.

01:13:13.800 --> 01:13:15.800
Okay.

01:13:15.800 --> 01:13:17.800
Any other questions Angie?

01:13:17.800 --> 01:13:25.800
I just want to say that the private entity or nonprofit were to purchase this.

01:13:26.800 --> 01:13:38.800
They would be able to operate it like a true business and not have to deal with all the red tape being tied to the school district.

01:13:38.800 --> 01:13:48.800
So I would quote that we against this because I don't want to keep our as many possibilities open as we can to keep this open.

01:13:49.800 --> 01:13:53.800
So I think right now I don't see people lining up.

01:13:53.800 --> 01:13:57.800
But in the case that somebody does come forward or a group does come forward.

01:13:57.800 --> 01:14:02.800
I think it would be nice just to have it in there just for that reason.

01:14:02.800 --> 01:14:05.800
I'll hold you Danny because I saw Melissa go into her mic.

01:14:05.800 --> 01:14:07.800
I just have a clarifying question.

01:14:07.800 --> 01:14:12.800
If number three is removed and we don't entertain offers at the moment,

01:14:12.800 --> 01:14:16.800
that's something that we can take action on in the future, correct?

01:14:16.800 --> 01:14:17.800
Potentially yes.

01:14:17.800 --> 01:14:18.800
Okay.

01:14:18.800 --> 01:14:19.800
Thank you.

01:14:19.800 --> 01:14:21.800
Danny?

01:14:21.800 --> 01:14:25.800
I don't think we need number three there.

01:14:25.800 --> 01:14:41.800
I think that there are really reputable people in this community who have come forward and put forth that there are funds there that they are willing to provide the district as long as we are open and willing to collaborate with them in a sense of having conversations about the

01:14:42.800 --> 01:14:43.800
budget and what we need.

01:14:43.800 --> 01:14:50.800
So I don't think there's a need for number three if we just start coming together and work with this foundation and people in the community.

01:14:50.800 --> 01:14:55.800
What if the foundation wants to purchase it though?

01:14:55.800 --> 01:14:59.800
Like, I mean, they've laid out expectations.

01:14:59.800 --> 01:15:02.800
I think they would have let us know.

01:15:02.800 --> 01:15:09.800
But in what business plan does it make sense that you are going to put forth all of the money?

01:15:09.800 --> 01:15:17.800
We are going to pay for this business and we also want to know all the decisions and be part of all the decision making, but also we don't want to own it.

01:15:17.800 --> 01:15:20.800
Does that not raise a red flag to anyone else?

01:15:20.800 --> 01:15:22.800
We're going to give you all the money.

01:15:22.800 --> 01:15:28.800
We want to know all your decisions and be part of all your decisions, but we don't want to own it.

01:15:28.800 --> 01:15:33.800
To me, that would mean that there's something wrong with the business.

01:15:34.800 --> 01:15:41.800
I mean, the foundation is willing to fund it now and Mr. Cost has been more than helpful.

01:15:41.800 --> 01:15:44.800
But what if that changes tomorrow?

01:15:44.800 --> 01:15:46.800
What if that changes in a year?

01:15:46.800 --> 01:15:48.800
Now we're back in the same place that we are right now.

01:15:48.800 --> 01:15:55.800
Or what if those donors who are giving money to the foundation, stop giving to the money to the foundation and now the foundation doesn't have the money to give to us.

01:15:55.800 --> 01:15:58.800
Then we're in the same spot that we're in now.

01:15:58.800 --> 01:16:00.800
Things can change very quickly.

01:16:01.800 --> 01:16:07.800
And I just think we need to have the option out there for someone to run it as their business.

01:16:07.800 --> 01:16:11.800
Because when it's your business, you aren't going to let it fail.

01:16:17.800 --> 01:16:29.800
I do agree with you, Kristen, and for some of what you're saying, but I also think with us being a public school and that being part of our community and our public school, I think we have an obligation to not let this fail as well.

01:16:30.800 --> 01:16:35.800
I agree completely.

01:16:35.800 --> 01:16:39.800
None of us want the pool to close.

01:16:39.800 --> 01:16:40.800
I agree completely.

01:16:40.800 --> 01:16:43.800
That's why we're here trying to come up with a solution.

01:16:43.800 --> 01:16:52.800
But if the best solution is for someone else to run it and run it well, we have to have that solution on the table as well, or option on the table.

01:16:53.800 --> 01:17:05.800
Are there any other questions or discussion of the amendment that's on the floor of removing item number three from the resolution?

01:17:05.800 --> 01:17:09.800
I'm not going to vote in favor of it.

01:17:09.800 --> 01:17:16.800
I just want to stay really, really clear and consistent because I just don't feel it's believed in any capacity.

01:17:16.800 --> 01:17:19.800
I, as just one board member, I'll just speak for myself right now.

01:17:19.800 --> 01:17:21.800
I have no interest in closing down our pool.

01:17:21.800 --> 01:17:22.800
None.

01:17:22.800 --> 01:17:23.800
At all.

01:17:23.800 --> 01:17:26.800
I have no interest in acting unlawfully.

01:17:26.800 --> 01:17:28.800
I will not.

01:17:28.800 --> 01:17:43.800
I have every belief that we can figure out a solution, and I also feel that leaving this in there allows for flexibility because the language simply says we'll receive and consider.

01:17:43.800 --> 01:17:45.800
It does not say we'll accept.

01:17:45.800 --> 01:17:52.800
So it provides the opportunity we are on a time crunch right now with timelines within this resolution.

01:17:52.800 --> 01:17:58.800
Last week, Monday, this was on the agenda, but we couldn't get to it.

01:17:58.800 --> 01:18:07.800
So in the event that there is a time constraint, I just don't want to limit ourselves to potentials.

01:18:07.800 --> 01:18:09.800
It's not an acceptance of an offer.

01:18:09.800 --> 01:18:12.800
It's simply allowing that to be available.

01:18:12.800 --> 01:18:21.800
For those reasons and previously shared feedback and that in favor, I want the pool to stay open, nonetheless.

01:18:21.800 --> 01:18:24.800
Danny?

01:18:24.800 --> 01:18:37.800
I would just like to add that given the short notice that previous board members had regarding the dire financial strengths of this pool and they were quick to act and able to put something like this together.

01:18:37.800 --> 01:18:58.800
I don't see why we would not be able to act like that again if we needed this option, but I think if we put this option in, I think it's just basically giving us to get out of jail free card and not have to work together and have hard conversations with the foundation and community.

01:18:58.800 --> 01:19:05.800
Any other questions or discussion of the amendment on the floor?

01:19:05.800 --> 01:19:14.800
Can you just clarify for all board members' sake?

01:19:14.800 --> 01:19:32.800
Yes. For a yes vote, you will be voting in favor of removing item number three from the resolution, which states the district will receive and consider any and all offers to purchase the pool by nonprofit and for-profit entities alike.

01:19:32.800 --> 01:19:40.800
Yes vote will remove that from the resolution and no vote will retain that in the resolution.

01:19:40.800 --> 01:19:43.800
Does everybody understand what yes and no mean?

01:19:43.800 --> 01:19:45.800
Thank you for that clarification.

01:19:45.800 --> 01:19:46.800
Thank you.

01:19:46.800 --> 01:19:50.800
All right. The voting device is now open.

01:20:02.800 --> 01:20:15.800
Would anyone like to change their vote?

01:20:15.800 --> 01:20:21.800
All right. The vote is not closed.

01:20:21.800 --> 01:20:24.800
We have five yes and four no.

01:20:24.800 --> 01:20:26.800
The amendment stands.

01:20:27.800 --> 01:20:30.800
I have another amendment please.

01:20:30.800 --> 01:20:31.800
Wait just one second.

01:20:31.800 --> 01:20:46.800
We are now at the main motion on the floor, which is to accept the resolution as read with striking number three under now therefore be it resolved and now entertain your amendment, Randy.

01:20:46.800 --> 01:20:51.800
I move we eliminate item number one C.

01:20:51.800 --> 01:20:58.800
District must receive revenue by way of donations or other revenue streams to the amount of $250,000 by July one.

01:20:58.800 --> 01:21:01.800
So fund 80 may continue to operate.

01:21:01.800 --> 01:21:07.800
It's cash flow positive manner in 2026 to 2027.

01:21:08.800 --> 01:21:17.800
I think trying to ask the foundation to come up with this large amount of cash in such a short period of time does not at all realistic.

01:21:17.800 --> 01:21:23.800
I'm not sure that this board has shown good faith and that they really want to do these things.

01:21:23.800 --> 01:21:34.800
There's been an offer on the table for $120,000 to repairs which has not been taken advantage of.

01:21:35.800 --> 01:21:38.800
So I think we should just eliminate item number three.

01:21:38.800 --> 01:21:45.800
I don't think that's necessary to keep our pool open at this time.

01:21:45.800 --> 01:21:46.800
Okay.

01:21:46.800 --> 01:21:56.800
I'm just going to I was going to refer our defer to you Davis because there's a reason for that being in there and Davis, you can open on that.

01:21:57.800 --> 01:22:00.800
And I'm not here to tell people how to vote, but.

01:22:00.800 --> 01:22:08.800
So the reason you need that by July one is because if you don't have that money by July one.

01:22:08.800 --> 01:22:12.800
Then you won't have any operating funds.

01:22:16.800 --> 01:22:20.800
You won't have it. You won't have any fund balance left.

01:22:20.800 --> 01:22:23.800
So you need the 75,000 to get back to zero.

01:22:24.800 --> 01:22:28.800
So now you've avoided the deficit for 2526.

01:22:28.800 --> 01:22:38.800
You haven't addressed how you're going to keep operating in 2627 because you're not going to receive levy money.

01:22:38.800 --> 01:22:40.800
If at all.

01:22:40.800 --> 01:22:45.800
Until December, January.

01:22:46.800 --> 01:22:51.800
And you are going to have Mars.

01:22:51.800 --> 01:22:54.800
Revenue streams.

01:22:54.800 --> 01:23:02.800
And as we've learned from 2526, the revenue isn't enough.

01:23:02.800 --> 01:23:05.800
To overcome the expenses.

01:23:05.800 --> 01:23:10.800
So you need some other supplemental revenue.

01:23:11.800 --> 01:23:16.800
So that's why that, that one sees in there.

01:23:16.800 --> 01:23:22.800
Okay, I saw and I guess I'm just going to.

01:23:22.800 --> 01:23:30.800
You know, this, this concept of bad faith has been addressed with me before.

01:23:31.800 --> 01:23:38.800
The district has engaged in this conversation with the foundation since March.

01:23:38.800 --> 01:23:42.800
And in March, it was represented that there were several hundred thousands.

01:23:42.800 --> 01:23:48.800
I was at seven, several hundreds of thousands of dollars.

01:23:48.800 --> 01:23:52.800
Available to help.

01:23:52.800 --> 01:23:58.800
The district in its continued operations.

01:23:59.800 --> 01:24:12.800
As you said that, I looked at Mr. Cost because he's the one that made that presentation and he has shaken his head in the affirmative that there are several thousands of dollars to help in this endeavor.

01:24:12.800 --> 01:24:18.800
So I understand there is a time crunch and that is much unfortunate.

01:24:18.800 --> 01:24:20.800
But it's not.

01:24:20.800 --> 01:24:22.800
This isn't a surprise.

01:24:22.800 --> 01:24:25.800
This conversation has been ongoing for months.

01:24:26.800 --> 01:24:31.800
Then in that case you would have a week to negotiate to get some money placed in.

01:24:31.800 --> 01:24:37.800
Maybe not two hundred and fifty thousand dollars.

01:24:37.800 --> 01:24:41.800
Okay, so I saw the board members pop up to the microphone was the first one was Jill.

01:24:41.800 --> 01:24:44.800
She came up.

01:24:44.800 --> 01:24:49.800
Just because our attorney is, is sharing.

01:24:49.800 --> 01:24:58.800
I just wanted to ask it was my understanding that there was an attorney representing.

01:24:58.800 --> 01:25:05.800
I don't want to say there was an attorney representing the interest of the foundation.

01:25:05.800 --> 01:25:07.800
Is that accurate?

01:25:07.800 --> 01:25:12.800
And if so, should that attorney be involved in this discussion?

01:25:13.800 --> 01:25:16.800
That attorney is no longer working with the foundation.

01:25:16.800 --> 01:25:20.800
They were that not because of anything that occurred. It was just a mutual parting of ways.

01:25:20.800 --> 01:25:21.800
Thank you.

01:25:23.800 --> 01:25:25.800
The next one I saw was.

01:25:25.800 --> 01:25:26.800
And I.

01:25:26.800 --> 01:25:27.800
Go ahead.

01:25:27.800 --> 01:25:28.800
Sorry.

01:25:28.800 --> 01:25:33.800
I would just add the two hundred and fifty thousand dollars is a conservative amount.

01:25:33.800 --> 01:25:39.800
Because keep in mind your deficit is understood to be.

01:25:40.800 --> 01:25:43.800
At least two hundred thousand dollars.

01:25:43.800 --> 01:25:49.800
And the budget prepared by administration.

01:25:49.800 --> 01:25:58.800
Estimates that the deficit for twenty six twenty seven will be over three hundred thousand dollars.

01:25:58.800 --> 01:26:04.800
If I recall correctly, I believe it's three hundred and seventy five thousand dollars roughly.

01:26:05.800 --> 01:26:06.800
So.

01:26:06.800 --> 01:26:10.800
The two hundred and fifty is to provide.

01:26:16.800 --> 01:26:19.800
A life raft until.

01:26:19.800 --> 01:26:22.800
Possibly October.

01:26:22.800 --> 01:26:27.800
And give the board some more time to make a more.

01:26:28.800 --> 01:26:32.800
Informed decision about how it's going to.

01:26:32.800 --> 01:26:37.800
Continue to fund the operations of pool, whether that be through an increased tax levy.

01:26:37.800 --> 01:26:40.800
Through further discussions with the foundation.

01:26:40.800 --> 01:26:42.800
Through.

01:26:42.800 --> 01:26:45.800
Maybe.

01:26:45.800 --> 01:26:49.800
Different programming that's going to increase revenue streams.

01:26:49.800 --> 01:26:52.800
The idea is that.

01:26:52.800 --> 01:26:56.800
There be sufficient funds to carry.

01:26:56.800 --> 01:26:59.800
The district for some period of time.

01:26:59.800 --> 01:27:02.800
But not the full school year.

01:27:02.800 --> 01:27:10.800
So I understand what you're saying, Randy, where you're, but what I'm trying to make clear is.

01:27:10.800 --> 01:27:15.800
The two hundred and fifty thousand dollar number is.

01:27:15.800 --> 01:27:18.800
Just a.

01:27:18.800 --> 01:27:25.800
It's just to provide you a little more runway.

01:27:26.800 --> 01:27:33.800
I'd like to read from a letter that was sent to all board members.

01:27:33.800 --> 01:27:36.800
On May 22nd, twenty twenty six.

01:27:36.800 --> 01:27:38.800
By Mr. Cost.

01:27:38.800 --> 01:27:42.800
And the third paragraph of this letter, it states.

01:27:42.800 --> 01:27:48.800
Three of the task force members are the directors of the foundation of the United School District of Anago.

01:27:48.800 --> 01:27:53.800
They are attorney Paul Payance, the American CPA and Tom Cost CFP.

01:27:53.800 --> 01:28:03.800
The foundation had retained attorney Ryan Haydn to be sure it wasn't missing any legal or statutory requirements that apply in a case like this.

01:28:03.800 --> 01:28:12.800
Attorney Haydn concluded that the Anago United School District staff and board didn't appear to be acting in good faith.

01:28:12.800 --> 01:28:15.800
But they hadn't violated any statutes or regulations.

01:28:15.800 --> 01:28:22.800
Thus attorney Haydn's work with a foundation is done and he is no longer on retainer.

01:28:23.800 --> 01:28:27.800
Angie, you were up to speak next.

01:28:27.800 --> 01:28:29.800
Thanks.

01:28:29.800 --> 01:28:42.800
Davis, would I be correct in assuming that a yes vote for this amendment to take away the two hundred and fifty thousand funding requirement?

01:28:42.800 --> 01:28:48.800
Wouldn't essence close the pool as of July 1st?

01:28:48.800 --> 01:28:52.800
Is that correct?

01:28:52.800 --> 01:28:59.800
Unless magically some very large amount of revenue comes in, then yes.

01:28:59.800 --> 01:29:01.800
It would be setting.

01:29:01.800 --> 01:29:05.800
I understand everyone's concerned and I understand that the pool.

01:29:05.800 --> 01:29:07.800
Everyone wants the pool to stay open.

01:29:07.800 --> 01:29:17.800
But if there is no revenue for twenty six twenty seven per law, it has to be closed.

01:29:17.800 --> 01:29:21.800
At least as you do as you operate it now.

01:29:21.800 --> 01:29:27.800
You can convert it to a fun 10 operation where it's only fun 10.

01:29:27.800 --> 01:29:30.800
And it's only for educational purposes.

01:29:30.800 --> 01:29:40.800
But as we've discovered, if you do that, your educational fund will operate at deficit and you will need to terminate staff.

01:29:40.800 --> 01:29:42.800
Thank you.

01:29:42.800 --> 01:29:51.800
This discussion has come up in the past and just so before anybody has the idea that we should just move it to fun 10.

01:29:51.800 --> 01:29:56.800
We would be looking at eliminating 11 teachers.

01:29:56.800 --> 01:30:01.800
Basically all of our C.T. department gone.

01:30:01.800 --> 01:30:04.800
Our art department gone.

01:30:04.800 --> 01:30:08.800
Music gone.

01:30:08.800 --> 01:30:16.800
So I just want everybody to know the weight of if you decide that you want to think that's a good idea.

01:30:16.800 --> 01:30:25.800
You can say we've acted in bad faith all you want, but we have tried and tried to look at this from every single angle that we could possibly come up with.

01:30:25.800 --> 01:30:31.800
Not only from us, but from the community, from the legal side, all that stuff.

01:30:32.800 --> 01:30:41.800
This is a volunteer position and we're trying to make the best decision for our students and for our community.

01:30:41.800 --> 01:31:00.800
And for you to sit up here not knowing even a quarter of the details that all of us have gone through and dug up and looked at and say that we are operating in bad faith is ridiculous.

01:31:00.800 --> 01:31:03.800
And very unprofessional.

01:31:03.800 --> 01:31:10.800
So, and you can sit here and snicker all you want. You don't even know how to operate your laptop over here.

01:31:10.800 --> 01:31:13.800
Okay, hold on, hold on, hold on.

01:31:13.800 --> 01:31:17.800
Danny, I think you were, Angie, you finished?

01:31:17.800 --> 01:31:18.800
I am finished.

01:31:18.800 --> 01:31:21.800
Dan, you were next that I saw coming to the mic.

01:31:21.800 --> 01:31:25.800
I do want to just outline that we are all adults. We are all professionals.

01:31:25.800 --> 01:31:26.800
Are we?

01:31:26.800 --> 01:31:28.800
Angie, I'm speaking at the moment.

01:31:28.800 --> 01:31:34.800
So, we are all professionals. We are all here to have open, hard conversations.

01:31:34.800 --> 01:31:38.800
We need to have these hard conversations and it's nothing personal.

01:31:38.800 --> 01:31:43.800
I'm not taking anything away from any of the previous board members that sat up here like you just said and did the dirt.

01:31:43.800 --> 01:31:47.800
You guys dug into it, you did your research. I'm not taking that away from any of you.

01:31:47.800 --> 01:31:49.800
Thank you for that. You are doing that, yes.

01:31:49.800 --> 01:31:53.800
I am not taking that away from anybody, but we have to have these hard conversations.

01:31:53.800 --> 01:31:54.800
I agree.

01:31:54.800 --> 01:31:57.800
I understand that there is some emotion coming from you with that and I get that.

01:31:57.800 --> 01:32:05.800
This is a sensitive topic, but I do just want to remind us that we are having a very hard adult conversations right now.

01:32:05.800 --> 01:32:14.800
So, what I would like to just comment on is that previously, so if we're saying we need the 250,000,

01:32:14.800 --> 01:32:20.800
if this term of budget is used for here, then that means that this budget should fluctuate.

01:32:20.800 --> 01:32:26.800
So, we can't say that our expenses are going to require $250,000 up front.

01:32:26.800 --> 01:32:35.800
I would like to ask, what is the bare minimum that this pool needs every single month to stay open?

01:32:35.800 --> 01:32:40.800
Can we meet with the foundation on a monthly basis mid-month and say,

01:32:40.800 --> 01:32:44.800
this is how much we need to keep the doors open this month? This is how much we need next month?

01:32:44.800 --> 01:32:48.800
Instead of asking them to put up this much money for that,

01:32:48.800 --> 01:32:56.800
in addition, what is the minimum balance that we need to keep in fund 80 in order to keep it open for July 1st?

01:32:56.800 --> 01:33:05.800
Is it $1? Is it $10,000? Is it $50,000? What is the minimum requirement for that?

01:33:05.800 --> 01:33:11.800
So, Danny, well, those are great questions that need to be asked and great questions that we need to discuss.

01:33:11.800 --> 01:33:17.800
Now would not be the time to discuss those questions because we are trying to amend this motion to remove line C.

01:33:17.800 --> 01:33:27.800
And from what I understand of $250,000, this is actually just to carry over until we start receiving the tax money that comes in from December,

01:33:27.800 --> 01:33:37.800
and comes in December and January of the tax levy of the potentially $300,000 or whatever this board sets in October.

01:33:37.800 --> 01:33:46.800
Then when that money comes in, this will be able to act as a cushion to help supplement for the remainder of the year.

01:33:46.800 --> 01:33:56.800
You have great points, great questions there to ask, and I think we could go down that road gingerly,

01:33:56.800 --> 01:34:01.800
but remember we are talking about just removing this. We're not talking about what this covers.

01:34:02.800 --> 01:34:15.800
And Danny, if we circle back to that question, I have a comment that, but I don't want to get you off track.

01:34:15.800 --> 01:34:21.800
So, how many times can we amend the motion?

01:34:22.800 --> 01:34:26.800
So, if I were to amend the motion, that's then we're done.

01:34:26.800 --> 01:34:27.800
We're at two.

01:34:27.800 --> 01:34:34.800
Well, we're at two because we had one amendment from Jean, and now we're at two with Randy with this motion.

01:34:38.800 --> 01:34:41.800
Can I revise my amendment?

01:34:41.800 --> 01:34:44.800
State your revision will see what we can do.

01:34:45.800 --> 01:34:49.800
Can we change the $250,000 to $100,000?

01:34:51.800 --> 01:35:01.800
That would have to be a question that we would have to ask, is that enough to carry us until we get tax revenue coming in in December?

01:35:01.800 --> 01:35:02.800
I don't know.

01:35:02.800 --> 01:35:12.800
I don't think it will be enough to carry you to December, but it will be enough time to get further negotiations with the foundation is my point, I guess.

01:35:12.800 --> 01:35:15.800
I see that.

01:35:15.800 --> 01:35:24.800
So, if you want to revise that amendment to $100,000, that you want to leave letter C in there?

01:35:24.800 --> 01:35:26.800
That would be correct.

01:35:26.800 --> 01:35:31.800
And revise it to in the amount of $100,000 by July 1?

01:35:31.800 --> 01:35:32.800
Yes, sir.

01:35:32.800 --> 01:35:34.800
Okay.

01:35:34.800 --> 01:35:46.800
So, the revision from Randy is to change the $250,000 to $100,000 by July 1, because all the members understand that's what we're speaking to now.

01:35:46.800 --> 01:35:49.800
Angie, I saw your hand.

01:35:49.800 --> 01:36:01.800
So, it's my understanding that the foundation, as Tom Cost was nodding in the audience here, that the $250 was fine, that they did have that.

01:36:01.800 --> 01:36:04.800
No, I don't think he was saying that.

01:36:04.800 --> 01:36:05.800
Okay.

01:36:05.800 --> 01:36:06.800
I misunderstood that.

01:36:06.800 --> 01:36:07.800
Okay.

01:36:07.800 --> 01:36:08.800
I apologize.

01:36:08.800 --> 01:36:09.800
I apologize, Tom.

01:36:09.800 --> 01:36:10.800
So, okay.

01:36:10.800 --> 01:36:17.800
Because like in the past, they have talked that coming up with this money was not an issue and that they could fund it.

01:36:17.800 --> 01:36:22.800
I mean, there was meetings where he was throwing out a lot more dollars.

01:36:22.800 --> 01:36:31.800
I realize that obviously you don't just write checks like that overnight, but a couple of phone calls.

01:36:32.800 --> 01:36:39.800
I understand.

01:36:39.800 --> 01:36:43.800
So, I guess that was my point.

01:36:43.800 --> 01:36:44.800
Okay.

01:36:44.800 --> 01:36:49.800
I apologize for misunderstanding it.

01:36:49.800 --> 01:36:52.800
I take hand signals very well, Tom, whenever I see those.

01:36:52.800 --> 01:36:53.800
Yeah.

01:36:53.800 --> 01:37:07.800
Any other discussion of the consideration of the amendment on the floor to leave item C, but change the amount to $100,000 by July one.

01:37:07.800 --> 01:37:13.800
That is now what we're going to be voting upon.

01:37:13.800 --> 01:37:14.800
All right.

01:37:14.800 --> 01:37:36.800
To be clear, by July one, but then if there are no further donations and fund 80 hits zero, this voting to approve the revision of the second amendment would effectively close down the pool because we would lose an additional $150,000 buffer.

01:37:36.800 --> 01:37:37.800
Correct.

01:37:37.800 --> 01:37:38.800
Correct.

01:37:38.800 --> 01:37:43.800
I have a question.

01:37:43.800 --> 01:37:48.800
So if we lose that money in the fund goes negative, but aren't we already negative?

01:37:48.800 --> 01:37:58.800
So I guess I just need clarification as to if we ended the year already negative, but we have money going into the positive going into the new year.

01:37:58.800 --> 01:38:06.800
If those funds dip below negative, aren't we just operating how we have been for the last however many years illegally?

01:38:06.800 --> 01:38:11.800
But like, but we could meet with the foundation and they could bring more money forward, right? Like the pool wouldn't have to close.

01:38:11.800 --> 01:38:12.800
Correct.

01:38:12.800 --> 01:38:13.800
Correct.

01:38:13.800 --> 01:38:14.800
Correct.

01:38:14.800 --> 01:38:26.800
Effectively choosing their fiduciary duties would mean that we are effectively saying we would choose to illegally fund and operate the pool.

01:38:26.800 --> 01:38:31.800
Am I hearing that correctly?

01:38:31.800 --> 01:38:32.800
No.

01:38:32.800 --> 01:38:41.800
I'm not saying that I'm, I needed clarification on as to if will the pool, like, why does the pool close?

01:38:41.800 --> 01:38:47.800
If that fund goes negative, then versus now, like, why isn't it gone closed now?

01:38:47.800 --> 01:38:53.800
And if it does go negative or get close, can't we meet with the foundation on a monthly basis to get more funds?

01:38:53.800 --> 01:38:55.800
Thank you for clarifying.

01:38:55.800 --> 01:38:56.800
Yeah.

01:38:56.800 --> 01:38:57.800
Yeah.

01:38:57.800 --> 01:39:02.800
The answer to that question.

01:39:02.800 --> 01:39:15.800
There could be an interpretation of Wisconsin 121 that requires it to be closed right now.

01:39:15.800 --> 01:39:27.800
If $75,000 can get into the account and the account can read zero for the year.

01:39:27.800 --> 01:39:35.800
An argument can be made that it didn't operate at a deficit.

01:39:35.800 --> 01:39:40.800
But if you knowingly are going into a year with zero money,

01:39:40.800 --> 01:39:45.800
then yes, you, you are operating in depth. You know, you are going to be operating at deficit.

01:39:45.800 --> 01:39:49.800
The other thing I'd know, which I wanted to address earlier.

01:39:49.800 --> 01:39:56.800
This is not fair to the YMCA to do a month to month.

01:39:56.800 --> 01:40:02.800
Will we have money? Will we have not? They have employees that they have dedicated to the operations.

01:40:02.800 --> 01:40:09.800
It is not fair to those individuals to have them guessing every 30 days.

01:40:09.800 --> 01:40:16.800
If they're going to have a continued appointment.

01:40:16.800 --> 01:40:26.800
And this is just not how businesses operate.

01:40:26.800 --> 01:40:28.800
Okay, is there any other questions Melissa?

01:40:28.800 --> 01:40:30.800
Yep, I have a clarifying question.

01:40:30.800 --> 01:40:34.800
So if we change this from $250,000 to $100,000.

01:40:34.800 --> 01:40:40.800
So then we're at $175,000 with the June and July money.

01:40:40.800 --> 01:40:43.800
Aren't we just, I mean, isn't it a way of looking at it.

01:40:43.800 --> 01:40:49.800
We're just giving the foundation more time to come up with it on the other $150,000.

01:40:49.800 --> 01:40:52.800
We're not saying we don't need it, but by lowering this amount,

01:40:52.800 --> 01:40:57.800
aren't we buying them some time so we can get more money in here.

01:40:57.800 --> 01:40:59.800
I would answer that as yes.

01:40:59.800 --> 01:41:01.800
Okay, thank you.

01:41:01.800 --> 01:41:05.800
But keep in mind that $75,000 is actually covering the deficit.

01:41:05.800 --> 01:41:07.800
The $100,000 will be for next year.

01:41:07.800 --> 01:41:08.800
It's lean on until.

01:41:08.800 --> 01:41:13.800
We're still asking them to come up with $175,000 in a week, basically.

01:41:13.800 --> 01:41:23.800
So if we drop that to $175,000, I think that would buy them another some more time to get that $150,000 is my thought.

01:41:23.800 --> 01:41:24.800
Angie?

01:41:24.800 --> 01:41:28.800
The $150 is going to take us to our toll.

01:41:28.800 --> 01:41:29.800
Correct. November.

01:41:29.800 --> 01:41:34.800
I don't know because I'm not, I don't know the day to day operation of what the cost is.

01:41:34.800 --> 01:41:35.800
Right.

01:41:35.800 --> 01:41:36.800
Yeah.

01:41:36.800 --> 01:41:37.800
We think.

01:41:37.800 --> 01:41:38.800
Go ahead, David.

01:41:38.800 --> 01:41:42.800
And generally that the pool operates at a.

01:41:42.800 --> 01:41:51.800
We think the pool generally operates at about $750,000.

01:41:52.800 --> 01:41:53.800
Of a.

01:41:53.800 --> 01:41:55.800
Of expenses.

01:41:55.800 --> 01:41:56.800
Right.

01:41:56.800 --> 01:41:57.800
Kelly.

01:41:57.800 --> 01:42:00.800
Am I accurate on that?

01:42:00.800 --> 01:42:01.800
Yeah.

01:42:01.800 --> 01:42:03.800
And so.

01:42:03.800 --> 01:42:09.800
And then we estimate that you're running at basically a half.

01:42:09.800 --> 01:42:14.800
Deficit. So you're 307 being the red.

01:42:14.800 --> 01:42:15.800
So now.

01:42:15.800 --> 01:42:19.800
I mean, the $150,000.

01:42:20.800 --> 01:42:24.800
You're going to burn through that in a matter of.

01:42:28.800 --> 01:42:29.800
Three months.

01:42:29.800 --> 01:42:31.800
I'm sorry, a hundred thousand. You're going to.

01:42:31.800 --> 01:42:34.800
Yeah, you're easily going to burn through that three months.

01:42:38.800 --> 01:42:43.800
But I think before we got to that three month period, there would be conversations with.

01:42:44.800 --> 01:42:45.800
You can.

01:42:45.800 --> 01:42:56.800
That we would let put them on notice as to where we are with all of the oversight of the budget throughout that time.

01:42:56.800 --> 01:43:00.800
You know, we would not wait until we're down to.

01:43:00.800 --> 01:43:12.800
$500 in the account before we say, Oh, Mr. cost, by the way, you know, that would not be, that would not be acting in good faith from us as a district or board to the foundation.

01:43:13.800 --> 01:43:17.800
Does that make sense?

01:43:17.800 --> 01:43:26.800
Okay. Any other question, Angie, you kind of have a question to look.

01:43:26.800 --> 01:43:35.800
In regards to going back and doing your monthly budgeting, you know, going back and forth with the foundation.

01:43:35.800 --> 01:43:40.800
It's my understanding. Correct me if I'm wrong. It's my understanding that.

01:43:40.800 --> 01:43:46.800
The school district is not to be doing that. We need that's why we needed the pool.

01:43:46.800 --> 01:43:53.800
Fund 80% fund 80% thank you to be that liaison between the school district because like.

01:43:53.800 --> 01:43:59.800
Even the finance director's role should not be heavily involved in this.

01:43:59.800 --> 01:44:01.800
So to.

01:44:01.800 --> 01:44:06.800
To do that monthly is kind of not feasible.

01:44:07.800 --> 01:44:10.800
So Davis, I have a question.

01:44:10.800 --> 01:44:17.800
The extent of the operation and maintenance, according to the outsourcing agreement.

01:44:17.800 --> 01:44:20.800
Is Woodson YMCA. No.

01:44:20.800 --> 01:44:23.800
Brian shaking his head. No.

01:44:23.800 --> 01:44:24.800
No.

01:44:24.800 --> 01:44:28.800
The outsourcing agreement is going to continue.

01:44:28.800 --> 01:44:34.800
By and large, the relationship that the district has with the Y right now.

01:44:35.800 --> 01:44:40.800
The day to day maintenance that.

01:44:40.800 --> 01:44:42.800
At one point was.

01:44:42.800 --> 01:44:48.800
At the center of this discussion still needs to be addressed, which is.

01:44:48.800 --> 01:44:54.800
There is in the budget, a hundred thousand dollar line item.

01:44:54.800 --> 01:45:01.800
For a fund 80 specific employee to be hired.

01:45:02.800 --> 01:45:04.800
That could be.

01:45:04.800 --> 01:45:10.800
A solution to the maintenance. There are other solutions that.

01:45:10.800 --> 01:45:14.800
Potential solutions that I've discussed with administration.

01:45:14.800 --> 01:45:16.800
With current staffing.

01:45:16.800 --> 01:45:20.800
To take a part time employee.

01:45:20.800 --> 01:45:27.800
And dedicate some of their time to the pool to do day to day operations.

01:45:28.800 --> 01:45:31.800
The over arching.

01:45:31.800 --> 01:45:33.800
I guess.

01:45:33.800 --> 01:45:37.800
Oversight of the operations and.

01:45:37.800 --> 01:45:42.800
Decisions about what to do with funds.

01:45:42.800 --> 01:45:49.800
That could be delegated to a subcommittee as previously described.

01:45:49.800 --> 01:45:55.800
So there are ways that we can work.

01:45:56.800 --> 01:45:58.800
And get creative with.

01:45:58.800 --> 01:46:02.800
Filling those staffing needs.

01:46:02.800 --> 01:46:08.800
But at the end of the day, which is what the resolution is to address is you need.

01:46:08.800 --> 01:46:12.800
Money to continue out of their minimum.

01:46:12.800 --> 01:46:21.800
I also had concerns about the personnel issue and it's a talking point I would like to discuss.

01:46:21.800 --> 01:46:23.800
I was actually waiting.

01:46:23.800 --> 01:46:26.800
After this vote to see what the.

01:46:26.800 --> 01:46:28.800
Final motion is on the floor.

01:46:28.800 --> 01:46:30.800
But I am going to defer to you Danny.

01:46:30.800 --> 01:46:34.800
Is this the time to talk about the personnel component of this.

01:46:34.800 --> 01:46:37.800
It would not be the time to talk about that at this time.

01:46:37.800 --> 01:46:41.800
We can get the final motion and then that would be the time to bring up.

01:46:41.800 --> 01:46:43.800
All of this those issues.

01:46:43.800 --> 01:46:45.800
Can I just I just got to ask you a question.

01:46:45.800 --> 01:46:47.800
So when Davis was.

01:46:47.800 --> 01:46:50.800
Talking about the maintenance and stuff like that.

01:46:50.800 --> 01:46:56.800
Is there no way for us to break down how much of the maintenance is needed to keep.

01:46:56.800 --> 01:47:02.800
That facility functioning in the interest of the educational sources.

01:47:02.800 --> 01:47:05.800
Not the community side. So could we break down.

01:47:05.800 --> 01:47:09.800
Maintenance expense for wages.

01:47:09.800 --> 01:47:11.800
And bill it from fun 10.

01:47:11.800 --> 01:47:13.800
If the maintenance that's being used.

01:47:13.800 --> 01:47:17.800
Is in the interest of the educational side of that pool.

01:47:18.800 --> 01:47:23.800
Now if that's 20% that would be 20% of that person's labor get built to fund 10.

01:47:23.800 --> 01:47:24.800
Can they break that.

01:47:24.800 --> 01:47:25.800
So that's how you.

01:47:25.800 --> 01:47:28.800
Sorry Danny. That's how you come up with the rent.

01:47:28.800 --> 01:47:29.800
Amount.

01:47:33.800 --> 01:47:39.800
Okay, so the district to your fun 10 your fun 10 rents the pool time.

01:47:39.800 --> 01:47:40.800
For education.

01:47:40.800 --> 01:47:45.800
Time like swim lessons for PE.

01:47:46.800 --> 01:47:49.800
Adaptive PT.

01:47:49.800 --> 01:47:57.800
And that money from fun 10 goes to pay rent to fund 80 for that specific period of time.

01:47:57.800 --> 01:48:03.800
And that calculation you're doing is how you arrive at a proper rent payment.

01:48:03.800 --> 01:48:05.800
Does that make sense?

01:48:05.800 --> 01:48:06.800
Yep, that makes sense.

01:48:06.800 --> 01:48:10.800
So, but then in that, but then you still need to.

01:48:10.800 --> 01:48:14.800
So that's just money going from one account to the other.

01:48:15.800 --> 01:48:18.800
But fund 80 still needs to be.

01:48:18.800 --> 01:48:23.800
You need to have a dedicated employee because you can't just send.

01:48:23.800 --> 01:48:25.800
Well, you can say.

01:48:25.800 --> 01:48:28.800
To your maintenance guy.

01:48:28.800 --> 01:48:31.800
Okay, we're splitting your.

01:48:31.800 --> 01:48:33.800
Your job description.

01:48:33.800 --> 01:48:37.800
You're going to do 80% of fun 10.

01:48:38.800 --> 01:48:43.800
Activities going around our educational buildings.

01:48:43.800 --> 01:48:50.800
And then 20% at the aquatic center and your 20% will be paid out of funding.

01:48:50.800 --> 01:48:54.800
But you have, so then you have a full time equivalent employee,

01:48:54.800 --> 01:48:58.800
but you have two part time positions making that full time equivalent.

01:48:58.800 --> 01:48:59.800
Understand.

01:49:00.800 --> 01:49:07.800
So, so my question then though, when, when schools not in session, isn't there maintenance that we could be doing.

01:49:07.800 --> 01:49:14.800
With staff to keep it functioning as our educational source, because it still is used for.

01:49:14.800 --> 01:49:19.800
Educational reasons schools, the kids are just not in session at the moment.

01:49:19.800 --> 01:49:22.800
Right, no, you can't do that.

01:49:30.800 --> 01:49:34.800
Okay, the amendment on the floor is to leave items C.

01:49:34.800 --> 01:49:42.800
And change in the amount from $250,000 by July 1 to $100,000 by July 1.

01:49:42.800 --> 01:49:48.800
So, if this passes and the funding does run out, I'm hoping it doesn't.

01:49:48.800 --> 01:49:54.800
I'm hoping that the foundation can come through, but the, but if the money does run out in three months.

01:49:55.800 --> 01:50:00.800
So, in September, does that mean that we come back and we have the same discussion?

01:50:03.800 --> 01:50:05.800
Or like, or do we just close it down?

01:50:11.800 --> 01:50:13.800
I think this is going to be an ongoing discussion.

01:50:13.800 --> 01:50:16.800
The pool has been in existence for 22 years.

01:50:16.800 --> 01:50:22.800
We can't just make these big decisions in a short periods of time.

01:50:22.800 --> 01:50:27.800
It's going to be an ongoing thing until we can get this sustainable.

01:50:27.800 --> 01:50:39.800
I think as Mike was talking, I was thinking about the response and that would be what Danny has been saying that we meet with the committee, which is the finance committee is his committee.

01:50:39.800 --> 01:50:45.800
That would be discussed at his committee level on a monthly basis as to where the funds are.

01:50:45.800 --> 01:50:50.800
And then at that time, we would also be in conversation with Mr. Cost and the foundation.

01:50:50.800 --> 01:50:57.800
And we would keep them in the loop as to where the funds are at on a monthly basis.

01:50:57.800 --> 01:50:58.800
Correct.

01:50:58.800 --> 01:51:00.800
We're not going to wait until that three months.

01:51:00.800 --> 01:51:01.800
Okay.

01:51:01.800 --> 01:51:10.800
And then by not waiting for that three month period, Mr. Cost and the foundation is aware of what's going on of what's needed by the school because.

01:51:11.800 --> 01:51:21.800
Please correct me, Mr. Cost, if I'm wrong, but I think in the very beginning, you said we want to do what we can do to help the school to keep this this pool open.

01:51:21.800 --> 01:51:23.800
Maybe not those exact words.

01:51:23.800 --> 01:51:29.800
They were probably better eloquently given by you than what I just said.

01:51:29.800 --> 01:51:36.800
But that was the gist of what I heard you say is that the foundation is here to help to supplement the school.

01:51:36.800 --> 01:51:37.800
Okay.

01:51:37.800 --> 01:51:39.800
Does that answer your question, Angie?

01:51:40.800 --> 01:51:41.800
Yes and no.

01:51:41.800 --> 01:51:49.800
So it, again, I'm hopeful, very hopeful that the foundation will come through.

01:51:49.800 --> 01:52:00.800
If a chance something happens and they do not, then does it automatically close down or do we have to come back for more for this again?

01:52:03.800 --> 01:52:05.800
It's fluid.

01:52:05.800 --> 01:52:06.800
Okay.

01:52:07.800 --> 01:52:10.800
I mean, I cannot give you a definite black or white answer.

01:52:10.800 --> 01:52:11.800
Okay.

01:52:11.800 --> 01:52:17.800
And I don't know that anybody in here can really give any of the board member want to say something there.

01:52:17.800 --> 01:52:19.800
I don't think we can.

01:52:19.800 --> 01:52:24.800
I think looking at it on that month to month basis is what's, is where we're at.

01:52:24.800 --> 01:52:35.800
And then I think by looking at this month to month basis, we're going to see a trend that's going to, that's going to pop up emerge out of what we're doing here, which is something we should have done 20 years ago.

01:52:35.800 --> 01:52:40.800
And we're just doing it now rather than 20 years earlier.

01:52:40.800 --> 01:52:49.800
So we're, we're doing this now so we can get ahead before that tax levy money comes in December and January.

01:52:49.800 --> 01:52:58.800
This is going to be the responsibility of the finance committee of the school board, not our business administrator.

01:52:58.800 --> 01:52:59.800
Correct?

01:52:59.800 --> 01:53:00.800
Correct.

01:53:00.800 --> 01:53:01.800
Yeah.

01:53:01.800 --> 01:53:02.800
To work with the foundation directly.

01:53:03.800 --> 01:53:04.800
We can.

01:53:04.800 --> 01:53:05.800
Yes, absolutely.

01:53:05.800 --> 01:53:07.800
Our administrators are not doing is my point.

01:53:07.800 --> 01:53:08.800
Correct.

01:53:08.800 --> 01:53:10.800
They will have to have some type of skin in the game as well.

01:53:10.800 --> 01:53:13.800
I mean, we're talking about everybody having skin in the game.

01:53:13.800 --> 01:53:16.800
Everybody's going to have to have that in this to make it work.

01:53:16.800 --> 01:53:17.800
But their time will not be put into it.

01:53:17.800 --> 01:53:18.800
It'll be the committee.

01:53:18.800 --> 01:53:23.800
Well, I can't say their time won't be because they'll, they'll have to put some of their time in there.

01:53:23.800 --> 01:53:24.800
Okay.

01:53:24.800 --> 01:53:26.800
I don't know what percentage of that time would be.

01:53:26.800 --> 01:53:27.800
Okay.

01:53:28.800 --> 01:53:29.800
Okay.

01:53:29.800 --> 01:53:30.800
Any other.

01:53:30.800 --> 01:53:33.800
That is a problem, Danny.

01:53:33.800 --> 01:53:35.800
I mean, that is.

01:53:35.800 --> 01:53:42.800
That is an operational problem because you don't have a fund 80 paid employee.

01:53:42.800 --> 01:53:47.800
That's how this has snowballed into such a problem.

01:53:47.800 --> 01:53:52.800
So Davis, what in the event, what happens in the event that we do hire a fund 80 employee.

01:53:52.800 --> 01:53:55.800
Three months from now, five months from now.

01:53:56.800 --> 01:54:03.800
What then?

01:54:03.800 --> 01:54:07.800
That's that would be if the pool is still open.

01:54:07.800 --> 01:54:08.800
Great.

01:54:08.800 --> 01:54:17.800
But I would advocate that that I would advise that a fund 80 employee be hired as soon as possible.

01:54:17.800 --> 01:54:21.800
Which is why it's in the proposed budget.

01:54:22.800 --> 01:54:31.800
I would also note that at the last task force meeting, the board gave a directive to come up with a person because it was a personnel issue.

01:54:31.800 --> 01:54:41.800
And to my knowledge, I'm going to, I'm going to probably break the rules by asking if there's anybody who has brought forth a person that we're not aware of.

01:54:41.800 --> 01:54:47.800
Or if there's any board members that are aware of a person because of the personnel fund 80 issue.

01:54:47.800 --> 01:54:53.800
Is there anybody in this room that is aware of that directive being successfully fulfilled?

01:54:53.800 --> 01:54:56.800
That was supposed to be the honest question.

01:54:56.800 --> 01:54:57.800
By the fund.

01:54:57.800 --> 01:55:03.800
But no, I'm just making sure that there's nobody that was like, that was a directive given, correct?

01:55:03.800 --> 01:55:13.800
That there's a personnel issue that Mr. Koss has very clearly laid out his magic and it's exceptionally appreciated.

01:55:13.800 --> 01:55:18.800
It really came down to the money, the money is a problem, right?

01:55:18.800 --> 01:55:24.800
But you have somebody that's well versed and knowledgeable to be able to address the financial component with time.

01:55:24.800 --> 01:55:25.800
I understand that.

01:55:25.800 --> 01:55:32.800
What was still the secondary, yet primary barrier is a personnel issue.

01:55:32.800 --> 01:55:36.800
So we still have not resolved a fund 80 personnel.

01:55:36.800 --> 01:55:42.800
So I'm just making sure that that is still something that we're pretending is not a direct imminent need.

01:55:42.800 --> 01:55:46.800
We don't have somebody identified, correct?

01:55:46.800 --> 01:55:50.800
To my knowledge, nobody is identified.

01:55:50.800 --> 01:55:53.800
When you say no one's been identified, what do you mean?

01:55:53.800 --> 01:55:56.800
Like a position, like a type of position?

01:55:56.800 --> 01:56:05.800
Nobody has come forward to apply for the position.

01:56:05.800 --> 01:56:14.800
In any of those people's defense, no position has been posted because there's no money to fund that position.

01:56:14.800 --> 01:56:16.800
Right, so it goes hand in hand.

01:56:16.800 --> 01:56:17.800
Correct.

01:56:17.800 --> 01:56:18.800
Yes.

01:56:18.800 --> 01:56:19.800
That's the thing.

01:56:19.800 --> 01:56:20.800
There is no money currently.

01:56:20.800 --> 01:56:21.800
There's also no position.

01:56:21.800 --> 01:56:27.800
So one without, I mean, that's how we keep ping ponging and the discussions, right?

01:56:27.800 --> 01:56:30.800
Including these on the amendments even tonight.

01:56:30.800 --> 01:56:39.800
So I guess my question is you, this is a personal question that I was trying to hold off and part of it at least.

01:56:39.800 --> 01:56:47.800
But how do we effectively go month to month through committee meetings without having a liaison funded through fund 80?

01:56:47.800 --> 01:56:50.800
So if we reduce to 100,000, that's my question.

01:56:50.800 --> 01:56:59.800
I very much agree and love the band aid to go month to month by reducing to bank it more feasible to acquire donations.

01:56:59.800 --> 01:57:14.800
Yet at the end of the day, can we do that without having a fund 80 liaison to help facilitate, communicate, pay bills, identify needs?

01:57:14.800 --> 01:57:15.800
Can we do that?

01:57:15.800 --> 01:57:20.800
And that's a question for the finance committee for you, Danny, for Davis.

01:57:20.800 --> 01:57:26.800
Like, is this a feasible band aid?

01:57:26.800 --> 01:57:36.800
I would say other districts do this and I would think that there's some way that our finance director can be that liaison.

01:57:36.800 --> 01:57:43.800
If it requires something with her job description to be changed.

01:57:43.800 --> 01:57:46.800
There's districts all over the state that do this.

01:57:46.800 --> 01:57:54.800
Their finance office, finance director pays all the bills through their districts.

01:57:54.800 --> 01:57:56.800
I've talked to some of these people.

01:57:56.800 --> 01:58:02.800
So there is a way we have to figure out the way to move forward.

01:58:02.800 --> 01:58:04.800
So it's a separate contract.

01:58:04.800 --> 01:58:06.800
I've also done the research and had the conversations.

01:58:07.800 --> 01:58:10.800
Those contracts aren't written up, so we don't have that in place.

01:58:10.800 --> 01:58:16.800
Can we logically reasonably have that in place by July to get it to committee?

01:58:16.800 --> 01:58:26.800
I've had the discussion and presented a solution to some members of the foundation and our district as well of that fund 80 position.

01:58:26.800 --> 01:58:33.800
Tying to our strategic plan that should drive our decision making for a community engagement slash aquatic center director.

01:58:34.800 --> 01:58:38.800
That's not necessarily a full time position for aquatics, but that bridges that gap.

01:58:38.800 --> 01:58:46.800
Going back to the city and the county, it would be wonderful if maybe that could be a split position between the city.

01:58:46.800 --> 01:58:53.800
County or district, because again, it's a community, community gym that we're talking about.

01:58:53.800 --> 01:58:57.800
So looking at creative solutions and skin in the game.

01:58:58.800 --> 01:59:02.800
Can parks and recs oversee that portion of it funded through funded?

01:59:02.800 --> 01:59:09.800
I mean, there's endless creative solutions right now, though, that there's not a solution on the table that is addressing that.

01:59:09.800 --> 01:59:19.800
So can we like, yes, we can get it, but now reasonably not having contract language, even drafted right now to my knowledge.

01:59:19.800 --> 01:59:23.800
We're not going to get that to committees by July.

01:59:23.800 --> 01:59:27.800
Now, that means we're going to get it to committee in August.

01:59:27.800 --> 01:59:38.800
We reduced the amount from 250 to 100. Like, I just don't like the cushion right now. It doesn't make me feel comfortable because we still have too many moving parts that aren't being addressed yet.

01:59:39.800 --> 01:59:46.800
Davis, correct me if I'm wrong, the position and the, like the interviewing, the job description, all that.

01:59:46.800 --> 01:59:51.800
Is not supposed to come through the school district because then that means that we're.

01:59:53.800 --> 01:59:57.800
Handling fund 80 improperly. Is that correct?

01:59:59.800 --> 02:00:04.800
No, you can have the district can.

02:00:04.800 --> 02:00:13.800
Put out a position and pay for that position, but they have to do it out of funding. The payment has to come out of funding.

02:00:13.800 --> 02:00:19.800
Right. So our HR department can put together can spend the time on it, put together the.

02:00:19.800 --> 02:00:24.800
Yeah, original. Okay. All right. Yeah. Okay. Thank you.

02:00:24.800 --> 02:00:29.800
Davis, can that person be as Jill was implying a part time.

02:00:30.800 --> 02:00:39.800
Fund 80 and a part time fund 10 and be a PR person for the school district as well as the director for the aquatic center.

02:00:41.800 --> 02:00:46.800
I think Jill is implying that it would be all funded. The PR person.

02:00:46.800 --> 02:00:55.800
Correct. It would be funded on a fund 80. If you do a split position again going back to our strategic plan that should drive decision making because our community has.

02:00:55.800 --> 02:01:00.800
Criticized the decisions that we make. So tying it back to that strategic plan would do that.

02:01:00.800 --> 02:01:06.800
Right now, quite honestly, my solution that I would offer that is not.

02:01:06.800 --> 02:01:11.800
I didn't even know if this fits in this discussion is that we create a second contract.

02:01:11.800 --> 02:01:16.800
For likely Kelly, Jake and Glenda.

02:01:16.800 --> 02:01:22.800
To be paid out of fund 80 to remove that personnel issue.

02:01:23.800 --> 02:01:25.800
But that is not.

02:01:25.800 --> 02:01:29.800
This current revise amendment.

02:01:29.800 --> 02:01:34.800
But ties to it because we have to be able to discuss it and do something with it.

02:01:34.800 --> 02:01:37.800
So.

02:01:37.800 --> 02:01:42.800
Those employees you just mentioned.

02:01:42.800 --> 02:01:46.800
Have signed contracts for.

02:01:46.800 --> 02:01:49.800
26, 27.

02:01:50.800 --> 02:01:54.800
You would have to offer them new contracts.

02:01:54.800 --> 02:02:03.800
Which they would have to accept.

02:02:03.800 --> 02:02:06.800
Clarifying question.

02:02:06.800 --> 02:02:11.800
My thought is.

02:02:11.800 --> 02:02:15.800
I understand completely the concern the personnel concern and the continued deficit.

02:02:15.800 --> 02:02:17.800
If we don't have that.

02:02:17.800 --> 02:02:20.800
Position there. I do understand that.

02:02:20.800 --> 02:02:23.800
But I think we're losing sight of the fact that.

02:02:23.800 --> 02:02:30.800
What is it is been effectively three months that the foundation came up with almost $2 million that they can.

02:02:30.800 --> 02:02:33.800
Help with if needed.

02:02:33.800 --> 02:02:40.800
I don't see why they would have put the energy into finding a person if they didn't know if the doors were going to stay open.

02:02:41.800 --> 02:02:45.800
So with the speed that they came up with a solution on their end.

02:02:45.800 --> 02:02:48.800
I feel like if we work with them.

02:02:48.800 --> 02:02:53.800
That position could be created and failed rather relatively quickly.

02:02:53.800 --> 02:02:56.800
I mean they've proven that time is of the.

02:02:56.800 --> 02:03:00.800
They understand time is of the essence and they're willing to put in the work.

02:03:00.800 --> 02:03:01.800
It just can't.

02:03:01.800 --> 02:03:04.800
It has to happen in the correct order.

02:03:04.800 --> 02:03:09.800
And to me keeping the doors open or knowing that the doors are going to be open.

02:03:09.800 --> 02:03:14.800
I would put my energy into that before I would put it into filling a position that might not exist if the doors don't stay open.

02:03:24.800 --> 02:03:27.800
Danny can you correct me if I'm wrong.

02:03:27.800 --> 02:03:30.800
Maybe I'm remembering this incorrectly.

02:03:31.800 --> 02:03:32.800
So at the last.

02:03:32.800 --> 02:03:34.800
Pool task force meeting that we had.

02:03:34.800 --> 02:03:38.800
I thought as Joe brought up too that the.

02:03:38.800 --> 02:03:41.800
That that group was going to find.

02:03:41.800 --> 02:03:47.800
A person is it that group or is it the school's responsibility just so we're clear.

02:03:47.800 --> 02:03:50.800
We make sure we know who's supposed to be doing what.

02:03:50.800 --> 02:03:51.800
So that the ball doesn't get.

02:03:51.800 --> 02:03:56.800
I believe it was a joint effort because it would be they would be a district higher.

02:03:56.800 --> 02:03:59.800
So the school has to be involved with that.

02:03:59.800 --> 02:04:00.800
Okay.

02:04:00.800 --> 02:04:02.800
If I'm understanding that correctly.

02:04:02.800 --> 02:04:03.800
Okay.

02:04:03.800 --> 02:04:04.800
Yes.

02:04:04.800 --> 02:04:05.800
So it would be a joint effort.

02:04:05.800 --> 02:04:06.800
Okay.

02:04:06.800 --> 02:04:09.800
But again we have not posted for a position.

02:04:09.800 --> 02:04:10.800
Yet.

02:04:10.800 --> 02:04:11.800
Either.

02:04:11.800 --> 02:04:12.800
Okay.

02:04:12.800 --> 02:04:13.800
Okay.

02:04:13.800 --> 02:04:21.800
Let's bring us back to the amendment that's on the floor.

02:04:21.800 --> 02:04:24.800
And that is changing item C.

02:04:24.800 --> 02:04:32.800
The amount from two hundred and fifty thousand dollars to one hundred thousand dollars by July one.

02:04:32.800 --> 02:04:41.800
We will have an opportunity after this vote because this is an amendment to discuss personal matters even farther.

02:04:41.800 --> 02:04:44.800
As we vote on the main resolution.

02:04:45.800 --> 02:04:49.800
I will vote against this revisions.

02:04:49.800 --> 02:04:54.800
Not because I don't have faith in Mr. Cost and those involved in the foundation.

02:04:54.800 --> 02:05:08.800
But simply because I value the pool too much to worry about the barriers that we just identified coming to fruition and causing a deficit enforcing the pool to be closed.

02:05:09.800 --> 02:05:14.800
I feel very strongly that this revision to the amendment is likely to pass.

02:05:14.800 --> 02:05:16.800
So I.

02:05:16.800 --> 02:05:20.800
For safety comfort security of just having more of a buffer.

02:05:20.800 --> 02:05:22.800
I am opposed to it.

02:05:22.800 --> 02:05:28.800
And I just I just want to be very open and honest with my Wyatt and the vote.

02:05:28.800 --> 02:05:35.800
I think the reason I make this amendment even if you think it's really easy to come up with a two hundred and fifty thousand dollars in a week.

02:05:35.800 --> 02:05:37.800
I suspect it's not.

02:05:37.800 --> 02:05:41.800
Mr. Cost could be probably the one to answer that question.

02:05:41.800 --> 02:05:49.800
But I think this gives them a little more time to come up with the funds that we need.

02:05:49.800 --> 02:05:54.800
Any other discussion of the amendment on the floor.

02:05:54.800 --> 02:05:57.800
So to clarify what you're voting upon.

02:05:57.800 --> 02:06:05.800
A yes vote is to change the two hundred and fifty thousand dollars to one hundred thousand dollars.

02:06:05.800 --> 02:06:13.800
A no vote is to leave it the way that it speaks.

02:06:13.800 --> 02:06:19.800
Is that clear for everybody.

02:06:19.800 --> 02:06:31.800
Okay the voting device is now open.

02:06:31.800 --> 02:06:34.800
Would anyone like to change their vote.

02:06:34.800 --> 02:06:37.800
The vote is now closed.

02:06:37.800 --> 02:06:40.800
We have seven yes and two no.

02:06:40.800 --> 02:06:43.800
And the motion of the amendment carries.

02:06:43.800 --> 02:06:48.800
So now the one is on the floor before you is the resolution.

02:06:48.800 --> 02:06:52.800
And the resolution will speak of.

02:06:52.800 --> 02:06:59.800
The way that it's worded with the exception of the one hundred thousand dollars on line C the second line.

02:07:00.800 --> 02:07:04.800
Okay.

02:07:04.800 --> 02:07:09.800
The floor is open for discussion.

02:07:09.800 --> 02:07:12.800
Jill.

02:07:12.800 --> 02:07:17.800
I think at the.

02:07:17.800 --> 02:07:24.800
I think the goal of the task force was not to come up with a bandit but to come up with a solution.

02:07:24.800 --> 02:07:27.800
Obviously we haven't quite gotten there yet.

02:07:27.800 --> 02:07:30.800
It's a working solution.

02:07:30.800 --> 02:07:33.800
My question is.

02:07:33.800 --> 02:07:39.800
What are the thoughts of the board of this going on the ballot.

02:07:39.800 --> 02:07:42.800
Or an advisory question.

02:07:42.800 --> 02:07:47.800
I think we were relying on nine people to make a decision for the community.

02:07:48.800 --> 02:07:52.800
The city and county are not an active participant in this.

02:07:52.800 --> 02:07:55.800
So it's.

02:07:55.800 --> 02:07:58.800
That's a barrier in my opinion.

02:07:58.800 --> 02:08:02.800
Nobody wants to close it but funding in personnel issues are well identified.

02:08:02.800 --> 02:08:04.800
With this resolution is there.

02:08:04.800 --> 02:08:11.800
I am just curious on discussion from the board of let's truly get the community's feedback to say yes or no give us that directive.

02:08:11.800 --> 02:08:18.800
Because the aquatic center is not on our strategic plan but it's considerable time money personnel.

02:08:18.800 --> 02:08:26.800
Can we are we open to exploring getting the community's feedback to give us that clear directive when we are another.

02:08:26.800 --> 02:08:32.800
So when you're asking to put a question on the ballot in November.

02:08:32.800 --> 02:08:33.800
Yeah.

02:08:33.800 --> 02:08:34.800
Okay.

02:08:34.800 --> 02:08:40.800
So the question on the ballot in November would come after the board has set the tax levy.

02:08:40.800 --> 02:08:42.800
So it would be effective.

02:08:42.800 --> 02:08:48.800
It would be effective for the following year which would be twenty seven twenty eight.

02:08:48.800 --> 02:08:53.800
Thus fund eighty three hundred thousand would be.

02:08:53.800 --> 02:08:55.800
Continued use of the aquatic center.

02:08:55.800 --> 02:08:56.800
Correct.

02:08:56.800 --> 02:08:58.800
For the current year.

02:08:58.800 --> 02:09:02.800
If the board votes in October for that.

02:09:02.800 --> 02:09:08.800
Three thousand dollar tax levy for fund eighty as we have for the last several years.

02:09:08.800 --> 02:09:11.800
Or it can be changed in October.

02:09:11.800 --> 02:09:14.800
If the board chooses to do that.

02:09:14.800 --> 02:09:18.800
So what kind of question would we want to put.

02:09:18.800 --> 02:09:21.800
Just hypothetically on the ballot.

02:09:21.800 --> 02:09:25.800
For.

02:09:25.800 --> 02:09:29.800
An operation referendum to operate.

02:09:29.800 --> 02:09:33.800
Just a simple guess of this is it's not a simple ballot thing.

02:09:33.800 --> 02:09:39.800
There's a lot that goes into that but does the community desire to continue funding.

02:09:39.800 --> 02:09:43.800
The Claire Armageddon Aquatic Center through fund eighty.

02:09:43.800 --> 02:09:44.800
Tax levy.

02:09:44.800 --> 02:09:46.800
Yes. No.

02:09:46.800 --> 02:09:51.800
I mean because we're talking about the community the community the community that's like the full community taxpayers.

02:09:51.800 --> 02:09:52.800
To say yes or no.

02:09:52.800 --> 02:09:54.800
That's all I could with this resolution.

02:09:54.800 --> 02:09:57.800
I'm thinking that just like right now but like.

02:09:58.800 --> 02:10:02.800
So as I've gone to the convention for the last several years.

02:10:02.800 --> 02:10:08.800
Some of the questions come up is when can a school district put items on the ballot.

02:10:08.800 --> 02:10:14.800
And they the state legislators has restricted a narrow that down.

02:10:14.800 --> 02:10:17.800
As to how often and when we can put things on the ballot.

02:10:17.800 --> 02:10:23.800
So I'd have to ask Davis is it legal even for us to put something on the ballot in November.

02:10:23.800 --> 02:10:28.800
Or do school districts only put things on the spring ballot.

02:10:28.800 --> 02:10:32.800
I don't have that answer.

02:10:32.800 --> 02:10:36.800
I don't have the answer out the top of my head Danny I apologize.

02:10:36.800 --> 02:10:43.800
So I was asking if it is is it even legal to put anything from the school district on the ballot in November as a question.

02:10:43.800 --> 02:10:52.800
Or do we have to wait until April and then if it is legal for us to put something on the ballot in November.

02:10:53.800 --> 02:10:56.800
What exactly can we put on the ballot.

02:10:56.800 --> 02:10:57.800
Right.

02:10:57.800 --> 02:10:58.800
I understood your question.

02:10:58.800 --> 02:11:00.800
I don't know the answer right now.

02:11:00.800 --> 02:11:01.800
Oh I got you.

02:11:01.800 --> 02:11:02.800
Okay.

02:11:02.800 --> 02:11:04.800
I'm just simply curious of throwing that out there.

02:11:04.800 --> 02:11:09.800
Maybe it's a survey that that's going to be.

02:11:09.800 --> 02:11:13.800
I think it comes back to a long term solution.

02:11:13.800 --> 02:11:20.800
So if our our vote if our in the vote comes back that yes we want to use our tax dollars to fund the pool.

02:11:20.800 --> 02:11:21.800
That's the long term solution.

02:11:21.800 --> 02:11:26.800
Then we just have to increase the levy every year to cover the finances.

02:11:26.800 --> 02:11:37.800
But I'm not comfortable increasing the levy over two times to meet the needs of the pool without the directive from an actual vote and answers.

02:11:37.800 --> 02:11:38.800
Thank you.

02:11:38.800 --> 02:11:56.800
Okay any further questions of the resolution as we have amended it twice.

02:11:56.800 --> 02:11:59.800
And now you have.

02:12:00.800 --> 02:12:10.800
Can we just clarify who is responsible now then for carrying this out so that we've discussed that we brought the number down to a hundred thousand and we're going to have monthly meetings.

02:12:10.800 --> 02:12:14.800
With the foundation to maintain this and so.

02:12:14.800 --> 02:12:21.800
Is that monthly meeting going to be right in with the finance committee or who is responsible for carrying that out.

02:12:21.800 --> 02:12:26.800
Davis you can correct me.

02:12:26.800 --> 02:12:34.800
But I would believe that would fall on the finance committee and Kelly our.

02:12:34.800 --> 02:12:36.800
Finance director.

02:12:36.800 --> 02:12:53.800
To have those meetings and be able to inform Mr. Cost and the foundation as to where we're standing financially on that month to month basis.

02:12:53.800 --> 02:12:56.800
So.

02:12:56.800 --> 02:13:01.800
I don't think it's appropriate to be sending.

02:13:01.800 --> 02:13:07.800
Your administrators to these meetings to address fund 80.

02:13:07.800 --> 02:13:11.800
When they're fun 10 employees.

02:13:12.800 --> 02:13:17.800
Whether, you know, we're talking about.

02:13:17.800 --> 02:13:27.800
A matter of a minute or two of entering data in or generating a report and sending it to somebody.

02:13:27.800 --> 02:13:32.800
You know, I'm not reading the statute that critically.

02:13:33.800 --> 02:13:35.800
But.

02:13:35.800 --> 02:13:36.800
When.

02:13:36.800 --> 02:13:42.800
There is an expect expectation that hours and hours be dedicated.

02:13:42.800 --> 02:13:47.800
That's when the issue arises as to whether.

02:13:47.800 --> 02:13:56.800
The fun 10 employee is doing fun to 80 work.

02:13:56.800 --> 02:14:03.800
And these meetings be taking place at the same time in conjunction with our monthly committee meeting.

02:14:03.800 --> 02:14:10.800
Where Mr. Cost can listen to where the finances are on the monthly basis.

02:14:10.800 --> 02:14:15.800
Because you just stated that our administrator can enter in the data.

02:14:15.800 --> 02:14:24.800
Because that's not much time, but actually it would not fall on her to have the meeting with Mr. Cost, but he would come to the committee meeting.

02:14:24.800 --> 02:14:28.800
Or he could be there and speaking with.

02:14:28.800 --> 02:14:33.800
The chairman of the committee and Kelly being present at the committee meetings.

02:14:33.800 --> 02:14:38.800
I'll be able to determine what is in the account on a monthly basis.

02:14:38.800 --> 02:14:43.800
Is that doable.

02:14:43.800 --> 02:14:44.800
This.

02:14:44.800 --> 02:14:48.800
If we're talking about the reading of a report.

02:14:48.800 --> 02:14:51.800
I think yes, and what it would be.

02:14:51.800 --> 02:14:53.800
If it's.

02:14:53.800 --> 02:14:59.800
Asking your business director to generate reports and it's someone and then people go have a discussion about it.

02:14:59.800 --> 02:15:02.800
I'm comfortable with that.

02:15:02.800 --> 02:15:09.800
I think it would be the report coming to the committee and the committee discussing that like they would discuss any other report.

02:15:09.800 --> 02:15:13.800
At the committee level.

02:15:13.800 --> 02:15:14.800
Am I missing?

02:15:14.800 --> 02:15:17.800
Am I missing something?

02:15:18.800 --> 02:15:20.800
No.

02:15:20.800 --> 02:15:21.800
Okay.

02:15:21.800 --> 02:15:23.800
But I don't.

02:15:23.800 --> 02:15:26.800
I don't think it'd be appropriate to send.

02:15:26.800 --> 02:15:33.800
Your administrators to those committee meetings specifically dedicated to funding.

02:15:33.800 --> 02:15:37.800
But they come to the committee meetings already.

02:15:37.800 --> 02:15:38.800
Yeah, they're at.

02:15:38.800 --> 02:15:41.800
They're required to be at all the committee meetings.

02:15:41.800 --> 02:15:43.800
The, the administrators are.

02:15:44.800 --> 02:15:51.800
That's like going to your doctor's appointment and then saying I'm scheduled for my, my yearly wellness exam.

02:15:51.800 --> 02:15:53.800
But I also have.

02:15:53.800 --> 02:16:00.800
This secondary or separate concern and saying, can you just bill it coded as a wellness exam, but.

02:16:00.800 --> 02:16:02.800
Kind of hide.

02:16:02.800 --> 02:16:09.800
The voting for the secondary thing that I'm asking you to medically review as my doctor, like that's kind of what we're saying right now is.

02:16:09.800 --> 02:16:12.800
Can we just kind of code it differently.

02:16:12.800 --> 02:16:13.800
Right.

02:16:13.800 --> 02:16:16.800
Which is why you've ended up in this problem.

02:16:16.800 --> 02:16:17.800
Correct.

02:16:17.800 --> 02:16:18.800
Yes.

02:16:18.800 --> 02:16:21.800
But it's okay for her to.

02:16:21.800 --> 02:16:25.800
Send the report to the committee head.

02:16:25.800 --> 02:16:26.800
Yes.

02:16:26.800 --> 02:16:36.800
So then if they want to have that meeting with the foundation at that meeting, does she have to leave the room?

02:16:37.800 --> 02:16:47.800
I mean, are you saying you want a separate meeting that they can't come to the finance meeting?

02:16:47.800 --> 02:16:50.800
You have to do it separately or.

02:16:50.800 --> 02:16:55.800
I'm not looking to be shady at all, but I am looking at.

02:16:55.800 --> 02:16:57.800
The best use of people's time.

02:16:57.800 --> 02:17:05.800
I understand she's the one that's paid at the table, but if she's not doing much more than generating the report and then going to a meeting that she's already going to.

02:17:06.800 --> 02:17:08.800
We've just said those two things are okay.

02:17:08.800 --> 02:17:10.800
I just think she can't be part of the conversation.

02:17:10.800 --> 02:17:12.800
That's, I mean, that's what I understand.

02:17:12.800 --> 02:17:13.800
Yeah.

02:17:13.800 --> 02:17:14.800
That's what I know.

02:17:14.800 --> 02:17:15.800
I said it kind of.

02:17:15.800 --> 02:17:16.800
Circastively.

02:17:16.800 --> 02:17:17.800
Can you go?

02:17:17.800 --> 02:17:18.800
Yeah.

02:17:18.800 --> 02:17:23.800
What I don't like is.

02:17:23.800 --> 02:17:26.800
It is a.

02:17:26.800 --> 02:17:29.800
It is what you'll kind of explain it.

02:17:29.800 --> 02:17:31.800
This is an attempt to be cute.

02:17:32.800 --> 02:17:35.800
I'm.

02:17:35.800 --> 02:17:40.800
Is everyone sitting there in all honesty saying that.

02:17:40.800 --> 02:17:43.800
If Kelly's sitting at these meetings, no one's talking to her.

02:17:43.800 --> 02:17:45.800
No one's going to ask her a question.

02:17:45.800 --> 02:17:48.800
Period.

02:17:48.800 --> 02:17:52.800
That's a fallacy.

02:17:52.800 --> 02:17:54.800
It's, I mean.

02:17:54.800 --> 02:17:59.800
Once we have the report, I don't know how many questions we need to ask or maybe at the beginning.

02:18:00.800 --> 02:18:03.800
Until everyone's understanding is a little stronger.

02:18:03.800 --> 02:18:10.800
But then at that point, once we all know what's going on and have those conversations, why

02:18:10.800 --> 02:18:14.800
does she need to be a large part of it once she gives us that report?

02:18:14.800 --> 02:18:21.800
The other piece is what Jill has always had been bringing up about the fund 80 employee.

02:18:21.800 --> 02:18:25.800
Once that person is hired, then that person would be the one that would be at that committee

02:18:25.800 --> 02:18:31.800
and speaking on behalf of the pool along with the committee and Mr. Coste with the foundation.

02:18:31.800 --> 02:18:32.800
Right.

02:18:32.800 --> 02:18:36.800
But we have to make concessions and help that happen.

02:18:36.800 --> 02:18:38.800
Making concessions.

02:18:38.800 --> 02:18:40.800
That's the struggle.

02:18:40.800 --> 02:18:45.800
Everybody, the discussions in good shape, I entirely agree, but that's why we're here

02:18:45.800 --> 02:18:49.800
is because we are using fund 10 to fund fund 80.

02:18:49.800 --> 02:18:50.800
Understood.

02:18:50.800 --> 02:18:52.800
But that's been a 20 year process to get us here.

02:18:52.800 --> 02:18:54.800
We can't fix it in three months.

02:18:55.800 --> 02:18:57.800
We have to take steps to get there.

02:18:57.800 --> 02:18:58.800
Right.

02:18:58.800 --> 02:18:59.800
I don't disagree.

02:18:59.800 --> 02:19:00.800
No.

02:19:00.800 --> 02:19:01.800
No, that's not true.

02:19:01.800 --> 02:19:02.800
No, sorry, Jill.

02:19:02.800 --> 02:19:04.800
That's not you can fix it.

02:19:04.800 --> 02:19:05.800
You just need the money.

02:19:05.800 --> 02:19:13.800
That's like, that's the difficult part here that these things can be solved with money.

02:19:13.800 --> 02:19:18.800
These other districts who are doing this and a successfully running these operations have money.

02:19:18.800 --> 02:19:23.800
There are strategic plans put in place for decades to create an endowment fund.

02:19:23.800 --> 02:19:25.800
So there's always money available.

02:19:25.800 --> 02:19:26.800
Understood.

02:19:26.800 --> 02:19:29.800
You guys do not have that.

02:19:29.800 --> 02:19:31.800
You need to address.

02:19:31.800 --> 02:19:38.800
Will you create a system or demand a system so that you have money in place to do these things.

02:19:38.800 --> 02:19:44.800
And it's not fair.

02:19:44.800 --> 02:19:46.800
It's not fair to.

02:19:46.800 --> 02:19:47.800
I'm going to go back to it.

02:19:47.800 --> 02:19:49.800
It's not fair to the why.

02:19:50.800 --> 02:19:52.800
To operate on a month a month.

02:19:52.800 --> 02:19:55.800
And it's also not fair.

02:19:55.800 --> 02:20:00.800
To the students of your district to have your.

02:20:00.800 --> 02:20:06.800
Speaking from experience of working with your administrators every day.

02:20:06.800 --> 02:20:10.800
They are they do not have time.

02:20:10.800 --> 02:20:18.800
In their day to dedicate to the pool and take away from their dedication to the students.

02:20:18.800 --> 02:20:22.800
That is why this employee position is so.

02:20:22.800 --> 02:20:25.800
Oh, vitally important.

02:20:25.800 --> 02:20:31.800
Because it's going to provide a person to create the link that is necessary.

02:20:31.800 --> 02:20:37.800
To have operational to have information flowing from the pool.

02:20:37.800 --> 02:20:43.800
To committees to people who are making decisions like the board.

02:20:43.800 --> 02:20:45.800
But this expectation that.

02:20:45.800 --> 02:20:47.800
The administration can keep.

02:20:47.800 --> 02:20:50.800
Operating the way it has been.

02:20:50.800 --> 02:20:52.800
And also be addressing.

02:20:52.800 --> 02:20:56.800
The myriad of issues that are is frankly.

02:20:56.800 --> 02:20:59.800
When you boil it down, it's an easy issue.

02:20:59.800 --> 02:21:01.800
Do you have money or not.

02:21:01.800 --> 02:21:04.800
And you don't have money.

02:21:04.800 --> 02:21:07.800
And now we're trying to figure out ways.

02:21:07.800 --> 02:21:11.800
To keep the pool operating without the proper money.

02:21:11.800 --> 02:21:14.800
Like that's what this conversation is boiling down to.

02:21:14.800 --> 02:21:16.800
And I cannot advise you.

02:21:16.800 --> 02:21:24.800
To keep doing this.

02:21:24.800 --> 02:21:26.800
But the money is there.

02:21:26.800 --> 02:21:28.800
Where time to it's not.

02:21:28.800 --> 02:21:29.800
Yes, it is.

02:21:29.800 --> 02:21:30.800
It's not.

02:21:30.800 --> 02:21:31.800
It's not there.

02:21:31.800 --> 02:21:32.800
Okay.

02:21:32.800 --> 02:21:33.800
It's not in my hand.

02:21:33.800 --> 02:21:35.800
And our accounts.

02:21:35.800 --> 02:21:38.800
We just need to have.

02:21:38.800 --> 02:21:44.800
The things set in place where they know they're not throwing their money at nothing because we're going to close the doors regardless.

02:21:44.800 --> 02:21:51.800
There are people in our community ready and willing to offer the money that we need.

02:21:51.800 --> 02:21:53.800
To keep the doors open.

02:21:53.800 --> 02:21:54.800
And then it is.

02:21:54.800 --> 02:21:57.800
Yes, it's on us to fill that it fund 80 position.

02:21:57.800 --> 02:21:59.800
I understand that completely.

02:21:59.800 --> 02:22:01.800
But we need.

02:22:01.800 --> 02:22:03.800
To also.

02:22:04.800 --> 02:22:09.800
Give them a little bit of time to get that money to us.

02:22:09.800 --> 02:22:12.800
They can't just write a check and set it on the table right now.

02:22:12.800 --> 02:22:13.800
But it's there.

02:22:13.800 --> 02:22:14.800
They've committed to it.

02:22:14.800 --> 02:22:18.800
And we have not seen any reason to distrust their word.

02:22:18.800 --> 02:22:21.800
I concern I have is.

02:22:21.800 --> 02:22:27.800
Credit Union committed a million dollars one million dollars to their grid iron program.

02:22:27.800 --> 02:22:29.800
And then rescinded that.

02:22:29.800 --> 02:22:30.800
So.

02:22:31.800 --> 02:22:33.800
That was in 2026.

02:22:33.800 --> 02:22:34.800
So.

02:22:34.800 --> 02:22:41.800
There can be chatter, but it goes to what Davis is saying and.

02:22:41.800 --> 02:22:43.800
There it's not here currently.

02:22:43.800 --> 02:22:49.800
So yes, again, I don't think anybody disagrees or doesn't have faith in Mr. cost and his ability.

02:22:49.800 --> 02:22:51.800
But right now speaking.

02:22:51.800 --> 02:22:54.800
We still we still currently do not have the money.

02:22:55.800 --> 02:22:59.800
And we could have verbal commitments and.

02:22:59.800 --> 02:23:03.800
Those fall through.

02:23:03.800 --> 02:23:07.800
I guess my question honestly is.

02:23:07.800 --> 02:23:10.800
By.

02:23:10.800 --> 02:23:17.800
So we give if we give them the time with, you know, we've made these amendments if we vote this and we give them time.

02:23:17.800 --> 02:23:21.800
To get this money to a fund that is set for the pool.

02:23:22.800 --> 02:23:27.800
If they back out, then we close the doors at that point, correct?

02:23:27.800 --> 02:23:32.800
So we're not any better worse off than we are right this minute.

02:23:32.800 --> 02:23:35.800
It's just giving our community time.

02:23:35.800 --> 02:23:39.800
To get their things in place so we can make this happen.

02:23:39.800 --> 02:23:40.800
Is my talk.

02:23:40.800 --> 02:23:43.800
And that's the same conversation we've been having since March.

02:23:43.800 --> 02:23:45.800
We're giving them time to get the money.

02:23:45.800 --> 02:23:47.800
We're giving them time to get the money.

02:23:47.800 --> 02:23:49.800
None of us have ever said we wanted to close the doors.

02:23:50.800 --> 02:23:51.800
Yeah.

02:23:51.800 --> 02:23:53.800
I went through all of the meetings.

02:23:53.800 --> 02:23:55.800
No, I completely understand that part too.

02:23:55.800 --> 02:23:59.800
But we've never told them if we have the, it's my understanding.

02:23:59.800 --> 02:24:03.800
It's never been said we need X amount of dollars.

02:24:03.800 --> 02:24:07.800
And we need it now or it's done.

02:24:07.800 --> 02:24:10.800
And I think that's where we need to be right now.

02:24:10.800 --> 02:24:12.800
Just to be clear.

02:24:12.800 --> 02:24:18.800
In April, the budget that's in front of the board tonight was presented to the foundation.

02:24:19.800 --> 02:24:21.800
It was then.

02:24:21.800 --> 02:24:24.800
Responded to by saying, no, you don't need that money.

02:24:24.800 --> 02:24:29.800
You only need approximately $10,000.

02:24:29.800 --> 02:24:30.800
Okay.

02:24:30.800 --> 02:24:31.800
And so.

02:24:31.800 --> 02:24:39.800
So since April, the foundation has known what the general ask is.

02:24:39.800 --> 02:24:42.800
So there has been time.

02:24:43.800 --> 02:24:50.800
For the foundation and the community and anybody else who wants to assist the district financially.

02:24:50.800 --> 02:24:53.800
To keep this thing running.

02:24:53.800 --> 02:24:57.800
This is not a surprise to anybody.

02:24:57.800 --> 02:24:59.800
So that's.

02:24:59.800 --> 02:25:03.800
Do I wish it was June 22nd and this is up for a vote?

02:25:03.800 --> 02:25:04.800
Absolutely not.

02:25:04.800 --> 02:25:06.800
But that is where we are.

02:25:07.800 --> 02:25:23.800
That's why I don't believe it's a fair.

02:25:23.800 --> 02:25:25.800
For attorney heighten.

02:25:25.800 --> 02:25:32.800
If you said it, and I have a lot of respect for attorney heighten to say that the district has been gauging and bad faith negotiations.

02:25:32.800 --> 02:25:58.800
Okay, is there any other questions or discussion of the motion on the floor?

02:25:59.800 --> 02:26:00.800
The resolution.

02:26:00.800 --> 02:26:01.800
Yes.

02:26:01.800 --> 02:26:02.800
Yes.

02:26:02.800 --> 02:26:03.800
Yes.

02:26:03.800 --> 02:26:10.800
That failed.

02:26:10.800 --> 02:26:12.800
Elimination number three failed.

02:26:12.800 --> 02:26:13.800
Correctly.

02:26:13.800 --> 02:26:14.800
No, it passed.

02:26:14.800 --> 02:26:15.800
Thank you.

02:26:15.800 --> 02:26:19.800
I'm trying to keep all the amendments in my mind.

02:26:19.800 --> 02:26:23.800
So forgive me for miss speaking.

02:26:23.800 --> 02:26:30.800
So the resolution before you the only change the two changes is letter C.

02:26:30.800 --> 02:26:37.800
It is now $100,000 and number three is stricken.

02:26:37.800 --> 02:26:41.800
That is the resolution before you.

02:26:41.800 --> 02:26:44.800
The honored you have those.

02:26:44.800 --> 02:26:46.800
In the minutes.

02:26:46.800 --> 02:26:50.800
It is to the amendment.

02:26:50.800 --> 02:26:58.800
The amendment is to change the 250,000 to the 100,000 and to remove the strike.

02:26:58.800 --> 02:27:00.800
That's passed.

02:27:00.800 --> 02:27:01.800
That's passed.

02:27:01.800 --> 02:27:03.800
We're at the main resolution.

02:27:03.800 --> 02:27:04.800
Yep.

02:27:04.800 --> 02:27:08.800
We're at the main resolution where letter C is changed to 100,000.

02:27:08.800 --> 02:27:09.800
Correct.

02:27:09.800 --> 02:27:11.800
And number three is stricken.

02:27:11.800 --> 02:27:13.800
Now that is the main motion.

02:27:13.800 --> 02:27:18.800
This will be the final vote before the board on this issue.

02:27:18.800 --> 02:27:19.800
Thank you.

02:27:19.800 --> 02:27:21.800
For tonight.

02:27:21.800 --> 02:27:28.800
I can't be an additional motion for the same topic.

02:27:28.800 --> 02:27:30.800
You can offer a substitutionary motion.

02:27:30.800 --> 02:27:38.800
No, I don't want to do that.

02:27:38.800 --> 02:27:42.800
Any other questions regarding the resolution that is before you tonight?

02:27:42.800 --> 02:27:47.800
So a yes vote to the resolution before you.

02:27:47.800 --> 02:27:54.800
Would be changing letter C to $100,000 and striking number three.

02:27:54.800 --> 02:27:59.800
If you are in agreement with that, you will vote yes.

02:27:59.800 --> 02:28:03.800
If you disagree with that, then you will vote no.

02:28:03.800 --> 02:28:08.800
Does everybody understand how you will vote?

02:28:09.800 --> 02:28:10.800
I know a clarifying question.

02:28:10.800 --> 02:28:11.800
Yes.

02:28:11.800 --> 02:28:17.800
And at committee, it is simply a printout with no discussion.

02:28:17.800 --> 02:28:26.800
Correct.

02:28:26.800 --> 02:28:29.800
Any other questions?

02:28:29.800 --> 02:28:32.800
Last and final time.

02:28:32.800 --> 02:28:33.800
All right.

02:28:33.800 --> 02:28:35.800
Your voting device is open.

02:28:35.800 --> 02:28:40.800
A yes vote is for the resolution as it was amended.

02:28:40.800 --> 02:28:48.800
A no vote is to not accept it.

02:28:48.800 --> 02:28:52.800
Would anyone like to change their vote?

02:28:52.800 --> 02:28:54.800
The vote is now closed.

02:28:54.800 --> 02:28:58.800
And the motion carries eight to one.

02:28:58.800 --> 02:29:02.800
And that is our resolution.

02:29:03.800 --> 02:29:04.800
Okay.

02:29:04.800 --> 02:29:11.800
I would like to take a short recess so I can go and see something.

02:29:11.800 --> 02:29:13.800
So let's take a ten minute recess.

02:29:13.800 --> 02:29:20.800
We'll be back at nine forty seven that Angie will be leaving.

02:29:20.800 --> 02:29:24.800
Okay.

02:29:24.800 --> 02:29:30.800
Her schedule is such that she's been a long day.

02:29:30.800 --> 02:29:38.800
I would like to be considering to approve the second reading of the policy five four six zero graduation requirements.

02:29:38.800 --> 02:29:40.800
I will be looking for a motion.

02:29:40.800 --> 02:29:45.800
I move to approve the second reading of the policy fifty four six graduation requirements.

02:29:45.800 --> 02:29:46.800
Motion has been made by Kristen.

02:29:46.800 --> 02:29:48.800
Would you like to speak to your motion?

02:29:48.800 --> 02:29:52.800
This is just the correction from our last meeting.

02:29:52.800 --> 02:29:58.800
It's come to committee and it is now correct.

02:29:58.800 --> 02:30:03.800
Are there any questions or discussion of the motion on the floor Mike?

02:30:03.800 --> 02:30:05.800
Yeah, I just the graduation requirements.

02:30:05.800 --> 02:30:08.800
Why are the credit requirements lower?

02:30:08.800 --> 02:30:13.800
My observation is this affects all electives because students don't need to take classes.

02:30:13.800 --> 02:30:17.800
And that's allowing our students to graduate earlier now.

02:30:17.800 --> 02:30:22.800
Like we've been having quite a few students graduate as juniors which is okay.

02:30:22.800 --> 02:30:27.800
But at the end of the day that also affects students in seats.

02:30:27.800 --> 02:30:36.800
And the Wisconsin requirement or the average I guess is between twenty two and twenty three and a half.

02:30:36.800 --> 02:30:38.800
Up to twenty six credits.

02:30:38.800 --> 02:30:40.800
And I know you talked about this.

02:30:40.800 --> 02:30:41.800
We're new here.

02:30:41.800 --> 02:30:42.800
This went through the committee.

02:30:42.800 --> 02:30:47.800
But I just why is it been lowered I guess.

02:30:47.800 --> 02:30:52.800
So this policy wasn't to lower it.

02:30:52.800 --> 02:30:54.800
We did that a few years back.

02:30:54.800 --> 02:30:56.800
I do believe.

02:30:56.800 --> 02:31:09.800
This adjustment was just to account for the change in the exception acceptance of algebra eight from the middle school.

02:31:09.800 --> 02:31:14.800
And the surrounding areas of whether or not that was going to count towards a math credit.

02:31:14.800 --> 02:31:20.800
So the discussion of lowering the credits was that was done in a previous update.

02:31:20.800 --> 02:31:21.800
Thank you.

02:31:21.800 --> 02:31:24.800
A couple of years ago I believe.

02:31:25.800 --> 02:31:30.800
Yes I am.

02:31:30.800 --> 02:31:34.800
Do you want to speak to that just to get some quick background I could otherwise.

02:31:34.800 --> 02:31:36.800
Yeah.

02:31:36.800 --> 02:31:39.800
You can join into because this was a few years ago.

02:31:39.800 --> 02:31:40.800
So twenty two is the standard.

02:31:40.800 --> 02:31:44.800
We looked at our school districts are around us ours was really high.

02:31:44.800 --> 02:31:47.800
The credit necessary around electives.

02:31:48.800 --> 02:31:50.800
There's a statute based in DPI.

02:31:50.800 --> 02:31:53.800
Obviously it's for credits for ELA.

02:31:53.800 --> 02:31:55.800
Three credits from math.

02:31:55.800 --> 02:31:58.800
So there's some regulations around that.

02:31:58.800 --> 02:32:04.800
But we had an extensive number of electives necessary to graduate which was causing a lot of students to not graduate.

02:32:04.800 --> 02:32:13.800
So we wanted to make sure we were kind of in that sweet spot where all of our could take the courses that they wanted to that a lot of them the opportunity to move into the career and college that they chose.

02:32:14.800 --> 02:32:19.800
After high school and still make sure they had adequate time within our schedule because we went from a.

02:32:19.800 --> 02:32:23.800
I believe prior to me in eight hours schedule down to seven.

02:32:23.800 --> 02:32:31.800
So there's some switching in the scheduling piece as well that caused our students not to be able to acquire all the credits necessary for graduation.

02:32:31.800 --> 02:32:40.800
So it's definitely a scheduling piece and also to make sure that we're allocated with DPI and the statutes that they set for graduation.

02:32:41.800 --> 02:32:43.800
So this one you're right.

02:32:43.800 --> 02:32:54.800
I think Kristen it was around before we used to have the science credit be able to come in with eighth graders who took advanced science from different parochial schools and come in and get credit.

02:32:54.800 --> 02:32:56.800
We realigned our science standards.

02:32:56.800 --> 02:33:00.800
We've talked to the parochial schools extensively around that.

02:33:00.800 --> 02:33:06.800
So we just needed the wording to match what we were offering within our K 12 system or four K 12 system.

02:33:11.800 --> 02:33:13.800
Thank you, Amy.

02:33:15.800 --> 02:33:23.800
Any other questions or discussion of the motion on the floor to approve the second reading of this policy 54 60.

02:33:25.800 --> 02:33:28.800
Hearing no questions or discussion your voting devices now open.

02:33:29.800 --> 02:33:38.800
And for new board members second reading means this becomes policy policies always go through two readings.

02:33:38.800 --> 02:33:41.800
Before they become policy.

02:33:41.800 --> 02:33:45.800
Okay, with anyone like to change their vote.

02:33:45.800 --> 02:33:47.800
The vote is now closed.

02:33:47.800 --> 02:33:51.800
And this motion carries.

02:33:52.800 --> 02:33:59.800
Let us see consideration to approve the AGR achievement gap reduction 2026 spring data.

02:33:59.800 --> 02:34:01.800
I will be looking for a motion, please.

02:34:01.800 --> 02:34:04.800
I move to approve the AGR.

02:34:04.800 --> 02:34:11.800
Data 2026 spring data as presented motions been made by Mike would you like to speak to your motion.

02:34:11.800 --> 02:34:17.800
I know that this was presented in committee and it was thoroughly talked through so.

02:34:18.800 --> 02:34:27.800
Any questions or discussion of the motion on the floor.

02:34:27.800 --> 02:34:32.800
Amy, are there any highlights you would like to point out.

02:34:32.800 --> 02:34:39.800
No, this is just concurrent with our data monitoring reports that we bring three times a year for all of the schools.

02:34:40.800 --> 02:34:44.800
AGR reports are necessary by DPI that we get them approved by the school board.

02:34:44.800 --> 02:34:48.800
It's part of our audit if we're ever audited as well under the AGR grant.

02:34:48.800 --> 02:34:52.800
So we bring this separately just to make sure it's clearly.

02:34:52.800 --> 02:35:01.800
School board approved, but then we dig deeper in our data monitoring reports to make sure that we show the board in the community exactly where we are on literacy and math.

02:35:02.800 --> 02:35:13.800
Skills sets. So we break it down a little bit more in our data monitoring report and that's not state like necessary for the state, but we do that to be more transparent so that people know exactly where we are on our benchmark screeners.

02:35:13.800 --> 02:35:18.800
We use aims web now. So if you look in the past on some of the AGR reports, you'll see fast bridge.

02:35:18.800 --> 02:35:21.800
That was our benchmark screener. We're currently using aims web.

02:35:21.800 --> 02:35:30.800
We flipped over completely this year for K 12 with that screener, but this is just kind of formality that we make sure that our.

02:35:30.800 --> 02:35:34.800
AGR reports are board approved by you.

02:35:34.800 --> 02:35:35.800
Thank you.

02:35:35.800 --> 02:35:39.800
Thank you, Amy. Any other questions or discussion of the AGR?

02:35:39.800 --> 02:35:47.800
I'll just add Amy. This is Jean. I really appreciate the effort that you put into these reports. They're super helpful.

02:35:47.800 --> 02:35:51.800

The vote's now closed and the motion carries.

02:36:12.800 --> 02:36:22.800
Letter D, consideration to approve the 2026 through 2029 for tenant renewal. I will be looking for a motion.

02:36:22.800 --> 02:36:32.800
I move to approve the bid from camera corner and the amount of $65,990 for the 2026 to 2029 for tenant renewal.

02:36:32.800 --> 02:36:36.800
Motion has been made by Mike. Would you like to speak to your motion?

02:36:36.800 --> 02:36:37.800
No.

02:36:37.800 --> 02:36:45.800

Okay. Would anyone like to change their vote?

02:37:11.800 --> 02:37:16.800
The vote is now closed and the motion carries.

02:37:16.800 --> 02:37:26.800
I wanted to say this is Jean again. Thank you, Kesha, for the work you put into your report.

02:37:26.800 --> 02:37:30.800
It's also really helpful and easy to follow.

02:37:30.800 --> 02:37:33.800
I appreciate it.

02:37:33.800 --> 02:37:43.800
Letter E, consideration to approve the printer slash copy RFP. I will be looking for a motion.

02:37:43.800 --> 02:37:49.800
I move to approve the printer copy or proposal from EO Johnson for a five-year term.

02:37:49.800 --> 02:37:53.800
Motion has been made by Jean. Would you like to speak to your motion?

02:37:53.800 --> 02:37:54.800
No.

02:37:54.800 --> 02:38:01.800
Any questions or discussion of the motion on the floor?

02:38:01.800 --> 02:38:12.800
Hearing none, the voting device is now open.

02:38:12.800 --> 02:38:22.800
Would anyone like to change their vote? The vote is now closed and the motion carries.

02:38:22.800 --> 02:38:32.800
Letter F, consideration to approve the annual HRA contributions. I will be looking for a motion.

02:38:32.800 --> 02:38:38.800
I move to approve the 2026-27 preliminary budget as presented.

02:38:38.800 --> 02:38:44.800
We are on letter F. You can hold that one later.

02:38:44.800 --> 02:38:48.800
Letter F.

02:38:48.800 --> 02:38:53.800
The HRA.

02:38:53.800 --> 02:38:56.800
Take two.

02:38:56.800 --> 02:38:57.800
Round two.

02:38:57.800 --> 02:39:06.800
I move to approve the annual contributions to the district's HRA plan for eligible staff in an amount not to exceed $68,475.

02:39:06.800 --> 02:39:12.800
Motion has been made by Danny. Would you like to speak to your motion?

02:39:12.800 --> 02:39:18.800
I think that that is a great asset to our staff and I'm happy to see that we are continuing that.

02:39:18.800 --> 02:39:22.800
Is there any questions or discussion of the motion on the floor?

02:39:22.800 --> 02:39:33.800
Yes, I have a question as a new board member. I don't have context from the past. I'm just curious how this compares to previous years.

02:39:33.800 --> 02:39:37.800
As far as the amount that we are.

02:39:37.800 --> 02:39:44.800
I have to defer that to Kelly.

02:39:44.800 --> 02:39:55.800
Yes, so last year there was an amount of 158,000. That includes the $1,000 contribution for teachers.

02:39:55.800 --> 02:40:03.800
The impact of sick leave buyout and then the impact of the retirement incentive contribution.

02:40:03.800 --> 02:40:09.800
And as far as detailed and historic.

02:40:09.800 --> 02:40:16.800
Numbers beyond that, those all should be in board docs as well.

02:40:17.800 --> 02:40:26.800
If I look at past June, is this always come up in June?

02:40:26.800 --> 02:40:29.800
I find it hard to find things in board docs.

02:40:29.800 --> 02:40:34.800
Yeah, I'm not sure when the past administration has brought these forward.

02:40:34.800 --> 02:40:43.800
Or if they have topic summary sheets like we do, we have detailed topic summary sheets that Mrs. Oginski has put into place since she's been here.

02:40:43.800 --> 02:40:48.800
So I am not exactly sure what they've done in the past as to which month.

02:40:48.800 --> 02:40:55.800
I would imagine it would be around March, April, May or June. It has to be done before June 30th.

02:40:55.800 --> 02:41:00.800
Okay, thank you.

02:41:00.800 --> 02:41:07.800
Deanna, would you please let the record reflect that I recused myself from the discussion and the vote of this item?

02:41:07.800 --> 02:41:12.800
Is there any other discussion or question of the motion on the floor?

02:41:13.800 --> 02:41:24.800
Hearing none, your voting device is now open.

02:41:24.800 --> 02:41:27.800
Would anyone like to change their vote?

02:41:27.800 --> 02:41:30.800
The vote is now closed.

02:41:30.800 --> 02:41:35.800
And that motion carries.

02:41:36.800 --> 02:41:54.800
Letter G, consideration of 2026, 2027, preliminary budget. I will be looking for a motion.

02:41:54.800 --> 02:41:58.800
I move to approve the 2026, 27 preliminary budget as presented.

02:41:58.800 --> 02:42:03.800
Motion made by Danny. Would you like to speak to your motion?

02:42:03.800 --> 02:42:10.800
I will speak to this very briefly as then on the board for quite some time.

02:42:10.800 --> 02:42:15.800
The preliminary budget is exactly what that first word says, preliminary.

02:42:15.800 --> 02:42:21.800
This will change between now and the final budget that does come out that we vote on in October.

02:42:21.800 --> 02:42:29.800
This just gives us an idea of where we are because there are factors and variables that will cause this change.

02:42:29.800 --> 02:42:36.800
Kelly can opine on this if she would like to say some of those factors that could possibly change the budget.

02:42:36.800 --> 02:42:43.800
So this is a 30,000 foot view of what a budget might look like for next year.

02:42:43.800 --> 02:42:49.800
Did I explain that? Okay, Kelly.

02:42:50.800 --> 02:42:54.800
Definitely. Yes, there are.

02:42:54.800 --> 02:43:03.800
Many factors that determine what your revenue is, including enrollment and third Friday account in September is a large one.

02:43:03.800 --> 02:43:13.800
And obviously we don't know what our revenue is until the fiscal year has already started. So that's one of the complexities of school finance.

02:43:13.800 --> 02:43:18.800
Much like you're seeing with the pool, taxes fund.

02:43:19.800 --> 02:43:26.800
Fund your budget and when those things when those numbers don't come out until after you're already operating.

02:43:26.800 --> 02:43:36.800
That makes things difficult. So, yes, it's a preliminary budget that is our best projection with all the facts that we have at this time.

02:43:36.800 --> 02:43:39.800
Thank you, Kelly.

02:43:39.800 --> 02:43:45.800
Can I ask a question about page five and fund 80.

02:43:45.800 --> 02:43:49.800
Which one are you looking at the June?

02:43:49.800 --> 02:43:54.800
Never mind. I know where you are. Thank you.

02:43:54.800 --> 02:43:59.800
Okay. Yeah, I think it's June.

02:43:59.800 --> 02:44:03.800
June 20 preliminary budget.

02:44:03.800 --> 02:44:08.800
This community service fund fund 80 and.

02:44:08.800 --> 02:44:11.800
Kelly, are you there where he's asking?

02:44:11.800 --> 02:44:14.800
Yes, I was just pleading for his question. Thank you.

02:44:14.800 --> 02:44:28.800
Okay. The question is they're proposing that we're going to end up with a negative 869,000 in fund 80.

02:44:28.800 --> 02:44:36.800
Is that presuming we're not going to get the past the bill for the 300? I mean, that's a mighty big jump up.

02:44:36.800 --> 02:44:40.800
You know, that's a $700,000 jump up.

02:44:40.800 --> 02:44:46.800
And the deficit of fund 80. That's what to me imply.

02:44:46.800 --> 02:44:50.800
They're going to take in absolutely zero funds.

02:44:50.800 --> 02:44:54.800
From the pool this year.

02:44:54.800 --> 02:45:03.800
So that's an excellent question. And no, I did not assume that this school board was going to levy fund 80 funds.

02:45:04.800 --> 02:45:09.800
Knowing that the $300,000 levy that has been done in the past.

02:45:09.800 --> 02:45:14.800
Is not enough to fund the expenditures.

02:45:14.800 --> 02:45:19.800
I am not going to assume or presume that the school board would put.

02:45:19.800 --> 02:45:21.800
A number in there.

02:45:21.800 --> 02:45:27.800
That's up to the school board to identify what they feel would be.

02:45:27.800 --> 02:45:33.800
The best tax impact to impose on the taxpayers of the school district.

02:45:33.800 --> 02:45:39.800
So no, I did not put anything in there for that. Again, we wouldn't know that number until the board.

02:45:39.800 --> 02:45:46.800
Approves an amount that they would determine in the end of October.

02:45:46.800 --> 02:45:56.800
That's also assuming there'd be about 112,000 ish of memberships and revenue that again still isn't guaranteed.

02:45:56.800 --> 02:46:05.800
So I think we've talked about all the rest of the details earlier.

02:46:05.800 --> 02:46:13.800
Kelly, I've got a question. I looked at the budget that was approved back in October.

02:46:13.800 --> 02:46:29.800
And compared that 2526 budget from that meeting to your column of the 2526 budget on this preliminary for 2627.

02:46:29.800 --> 02:46:34.800
And some of the numbers are off by a substantial amount.

02:46:35.800 --> 02:46:39.800
The total ending fund balance on the very first page.

02:46:39.800 --> 02:46:46.800
Under general fund fund 10 that account 9300.

02:46:46.800 --> 02:46:49.800
In the October.

02:46:49.800 --> 02:46:55.800
Budget, it was like 8.7 million.

02:46:55.800 --> 02:47:02.800
And on your sheet, you've got 10.9 million. That's almost $2 million more.

02:47:02.800 --> 02:47:09.800
And there are other ones like that, but I'm just curious why the numbers don't line up.

02:47:09.800 --> 02:47:14.800
I was expecting them to be the same.

02:47:14.800 --> 02:47:21.800
Great question. So school finance is very complex. So you're talking about two different funds right now.

02:47:21.800 --> 02:47:24.800
Fund 80 is different than fund.

02:47:24.800 --> 02:47:26.800
I'm not talking about fund 80.

02:47:26.800 --> 02:47:28.800
Okay. I thought that's what you said in the beginning.

02:47:29.800 --> 02:47:30.800
So I apologize.

02:47:30.800 --> 02:47:33.800
Fund 10 on the very first page.

02:47:33.800 --> 02:47:44.800
The ending fund balance that you have for 2526 is 10.9 million.

02:47:44.800 --> 02:47:57.800
When I look at the budget that was approved by the board in October, it's 8.7 million. That's over $2 million difference.

02:47:57.800 --> 02:48:06.800
Why are your budget 2526 numbers different than the approved budget in October?

02:48:06.800 --> 02:48:11.800
So right now we have not done our fund 46 transfer yet.

02:48:11.800 --> 02:48:17.800
And the budget is not our fiscal year to date is not over.

02:48:17.800 --> 02:48:21.800
So that's exactly what Mr. Pyatt had stated that this is preliminary.

02:48:22.800 --> 02:48:30.800
The ending of 2526 is not going to be finalized until the audit is over.

02:48:30.800 --> 02:48:34.800
Your fund 46 transfer doesn't happen until the end of July.

02:48:34.800 --> 02:48:42.800
So when you have funds that not have not been expanded, you have two choices.

02:48:42.800 --> 02:48:50.800
One of them is to keep them in fund 10, which increases your taxes to your local taxpayers and decreases your aid.

02:48:51.800 --> 02:48:59.800
And that's why we choose to fund fund 46. So that might be what you're seeing there.

02:48:59.800 --> 02:49:10.800
So what you're calling budget 2526 is actually expenditures or actuals or something like that or predicted.

02:49:10.800 --> 02:49:11.800
Right.

02:49:11.800 --> 02:49:17.800
2526 is not over. Yep.

02:49:17.800 --> 02:49:35.800
As just a similar question. I compared the 2425 numbers to the audit numbers and some of those don't agree either.

02:49:35.800 --> 02:49:38.800
I guess I'm not sure what you're looking at right now.

02:49:38.800 --> 02:49:43.800
Neither am I to be honest. I got I'm getting confused.

02:49:43.800 --> 02:49:47.800
Yeah, it is very confusing. So I totally understand that.

02:49:47.800 --> 02:49:51.800
I'll get the next time we look at the preliminary budget.

02:49:51.800 --> 02:49:53.800
Yeah, in October.

02:49:53.800 --> 02:49:58.800
Your audit isn't completely finished and closed out. And that's why.

02:49:58.800 --> 02:50:00.800
Oh, for 2425.

02:50:00.800 --> 02:50:05.800
Correct. Yeah. So when you're looking at your budget meeting in October,

02:50:05.800 --> 02:50:10.800
you don't have finalized numbers and audited numbers necessarily in October.

02:50:11.800 --> 02:50:15.800
And I know that seems confusing, but.

02:50:15.800 --> 02:50:19.800
It's all the numbers don't get closed out until your final audit.

02:50:19.800 --> 02:50:23.800
And that comes to the board as well. And when is the final audit?

02:50:23.800 --> 02:50:26.800
Usually.

02:50:26.800 --> 02:50:31.800
It's closed out and reported to the board in winter.

02:50:31.800 --> 02:50:36.800
And when I say winter, it's because it's not an exact month. So every year.

02:50:36.800 --> 02:50:40.800
You would be able to see that on when those things have gone to the board in the past.

02:50:40.800 --> 02:50:42.800
Okay. Thank you.

02:50:42.800 --> 02:50:51.800
Jean, I know the questions that you've been having about finances are the some of the same similar questions that I had back in 2017 when I came on the board.

02:50:51.800 --> 02:50:57.800
And I went to the business director and he really helped me understand a lot of those. And I know other board members have done the same.

02:50:57.800 --> 02:51:06.800
So if you could, I would set an appointment with Kelly and go and spend some time with her and she'll really do a dive with you in school.

02:51:06.800 --> 02:51:09.800
Can we just do a Vulcan mind meld?

02:51:13.800 --> 02:51:15.800
I am lost.

02:51:15.800 --> 02:51:18.800
Star Trek reference. Sorry. Okay.

02:51:18.800 --> 02:51:20.800
I'm sorry.

02:51:21.800 --> 02:51:30.800
Okay. Moving right along. Any other questions or discussion of the motion on the floor?

02:51:30.800 --> 02:51:49.800
Hearing none, your voting device is now open to approve the preliminary budget as presented.

02:51:49.800 --> 02:51:51.800
Would anyone like to change their vote?

02:51:51.800 --> 02:51:54.800
The vote is now closed.

02:51:54.800 --> 02:52:00.800
And the motion carries with seven yeses and one no and the one no being might freeze it.

02:52:00.800 --> 02:52:18.800
Item number five closed session consideration of a motion to adjourn into closed session pursuant to section 19.851 C and F for purposes of considering employment promotion compensation or performance evaluation data of any public employee over which the governmental

02:52:18.800 --> 02:52:47.800
body has jurisdiction or exercises responsibility and considering financial medical, social or personal histories or disciplinary data of specific persons preliminary consideration of specific personnel problems or the investigation of charges against specific persons except where paragraph B applies which if discussed in public would be likely to have a substantial adverse effect upon the reputation of any person referred to in such histories or data

02:52:47.800 --> 02:52:59.800
or involved in such problems or investigations to with discussion and possible action on applicability of grievance procedure to employee grievance. I will be looking for a motion.

02:52:59.800 --> 02:53:03.800
Motion is made by Jill. Is there a second to the motion?

02:53:03.800 --> 02:53:04.800
I'll second.

02:53:04.800 --> 02:53:22.800
Second by Kristin. And for our new board members, our closed session times is always given by a motion and a second. And then there is always a roll call vote to go into closed session. So Diana, could you do the roll call vote please.

02:53:22.800 --> 02:53:25.800
Can I ask a question for a standing?

02:53:25.800 --> 02:53:30.800
Not while the vote is in motion.

02:53:31.800 --> 02:53:34.800
Angie Schreiber.

02:53:34.800 --> 02:53:36.800
Kristin Matmiller.

02:53:36.800 --> 02:53:37.800
Yes.

02:53:37.800 --> 02:53:38.800

02:53:38.800 --> 02:53:39.800
Yes.

02:53:39.800 --> 02:53:40.800
Jean Adams.

02:53:40.800 --> 02:53:41.800
Yes.

02:53:41.800 --> 02:53:42.800
Mike Parisic.

02:53:42.800 --> 02:53:43.800

02:53:45.800 --> 02:53:47.800

02:53:47.800 --> 02:53:48.800
Yes.

02:53:48.800 --> 02:53:49.800
Joe Madison.

02:53:49.800 --> 02:53:50.800
Yes.

02:53:50.800 --> 02:53:51.800
Danny Payett.

02:53:51.800 --> 02:53:52.800
Yes.

02:53:52.800 --> 02:53:54.800
We are now in closed session.
