WEBVTT

00:00.000 --> 00:06.640
Okay, we'll call this meeting to order if everyone could please stand for the Pledge

00:06.640 --> 00:09.640
of Allegiance.

00:09.640 --> 00:19.400
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for

00:19.400 --> 00:29.760
which it stands, one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

00:29.760 --> 00:32.760
Sienna, if you could do roll call please.

00:32.760 --> 00:52.080
Angie Schreiber, Angie Schreiber, Joe Madison, here, Kristin Matt Miller, here, Daniel

00:52.080 --> 01:05.480
Nicholson, Jean Adams, Randy Mudders.

01:05.480 --> 01:07.480
Thank you, Andy.

01:07.480 --> 01:22.040
Mike Prezek, Melissa Cornelius, here, Danny Pinkett, no, thank you, okay, all right.

01:22.040 --> 01:28.480
So the district mission, Dan, if you could read that for us, please.

01:28.480 --> 01:32.040
Sorry, did I call you off, Rod?

01:32.040 --> 01:33.040
Okay.

01:33.040 --> 01:40.760
Do you have it up, Mike?

01:40.760 --> 01:45.000
Jean's coming, thank you.

01:45.000 --> 01:51.040
All right, so our mission, we are driven by purpose, guided by integrity, and defined

01:51.040 --> 01:52.040
by success.

01:52.040 --> 01:57.040
Our vision is to build a proud, annual community, and I know it is down talk about it, be about

01:57.040 --> 01:58.040
it.

01:58.040 --> 01:59.040
Thank you.

01:59.040 --> 02:04.280
So now I'm going to move on to the Antigua High School W.S.M.

02:04.280 --> 02:05.280
accreditation.

02:05.280 --> 02:06.280
Go ahead.

02:36.280 --> 02:45.040
Sure, you're just fine, you're okay.

02:45.040 --> 02:56.280
It is a technical difficulties kind of even.

02:56.280 --> 02:57.280
Should be good.

02:57.280 --> 02:58.280
Yep.

02:59.280 --> 03:05.560
As of August 30th, 2026, Diego High School has officially been recognized by the Wisconsin

03:05.560 --> 03:10.520
State Music Educators Association for Excellence in Music Education.

03:10.520 --> 03:14.880
This recognition is a tremendous accomplishment for our students, our music staff, our families,

03:14.880 --> 03:16.200
and our entire community.

03:16.200 --> 03:20.280
It represents the incredible growth, dedication, and commitment we have seen throughout our

03:20.280 --> 03:22.800
music program over the past year.

03:22.800 --> 03:26.360
One of the major factors in receiving this recognition was the tremendous success of

03:26.360 --> 03:28.560
our students at Solon Ensemble.

03:28.560 --> 03:33.000
Last year, Annigua High School set more than 120 events to District Solon Ensemble with

03:33.000 --> 03:37.480
more than 30 of those events advancing to the highest level of competition that being

03:37.480 --> 03:39.320
State Solon Ensemble.

03:39.320 --> 03:42.840
These numbers represent countless hours of preparation, practice, and commitment from

03:42.840 --> 03:48.160
our students on an individual level, and those that support them are extended beyond Solon

03:48.160 --> 03:49.160
Ensemble.

03:49.160 --> 03:54.480
Both our band and choir program also have outstanding performances as there is respected contest

03:54.480 --> 03:55.640
festivals.

03:55.640 --> 03:59.320
These festivals provide our students with the opportunity to perform in front of a panel

03:59.320 --> 04:02.240
of three highly qualified and experienced judges.

04:02.240 --> 04:07.640
Each performance is evaluated using extremely detailed and rigorous rubrics, covering numerous

04:07.640 --> 04:10.080
aspects of musical performance.

04:10.080 --> 04:15.480
Students and ensembles are held to a very high standard, and earn a high rating is a

04:15.480 --> 04:17.480
significant accomplishment.

04:17.480 --> 04:21.840
Last year, both the Annigua High School band and choir earned a first division rating,

04:21.840 --> 04:24.840
the highest possible rating an ensemble can receive.

04:24.840 --> 04:28.920
The achieving this rating is a tremendous accomplishment and is a direct reflection

04:28.920 --> 04:33.760
of the preparation, discipline, and musical growth demonstrated by our students.

04:33.760 --> 04:38.240
Because of these accomplishments and the significant growth of our music program, Annigua High School

04:38.240 --> 04:43.480
has officially earned recognition as a Wisconsin State Music Educator Association accredited

04:43.480 --> 04:45.600
school for music excellence.

04:45.600 --> 04:49.640
This recognition is about much more than the title or an award.

04:49.640 --> 04:53.680
It represents the countless hours our students spend rehearsing, practicing, performing, and

04:53.720 --> 04:56.880
challenging themselves to better become musicians.

04:56.880 --> 05:02.080
It represents their commitment of our music educators in support of our families, administration,

05:02.080 --> 05:04.280
school district, and community.

05:04.280 --> 05:09.560
Most importantly, it reflects of what our students are capable of achieving when they

05:09.560 --> 05:13.840
are given the opportunity to support and the encouragement to strive for excellence.

05:13.840 --> 05:18.840
And we have quite a few students here, so they can stand up with me.

05:18.840 --> 05:33.840
Yes, truly great work, everyone.

05:33.840 --> 05:34.840
Congratulations.

05:34.840 --> 05:38.840
You have a certificate for you.

05:39.840 --> 05:40.840
Yes.

05:40.840 --> 05:41.840
Absolutely.

05:41.840 --> 05:45.840
I don't want to be a little.

05:45.840 --> 05:52.840
Congratulations, you guys.

05:52.840 --> 05:53.840
Awesome.

05:53.840 --> 06:00.840
Congratulations, you guys.

06:23.840 --> 06:30.840
Thank you all for your time.

06:30.840 --> 06:38.840
Thank you so much.

06:39.840 --> 06:45.840
And then we will go on to the Culture and Climate Committee presentation.

06:46.840 --> 06:47.840
Okay.

06:47.840 --> 06:48.840
Thank you.

06:48.840 --> 06:50.840
Thank you.

06:50.840 --> 06:51.840
Thank you.

06:51.840 --> 06:52.840
Thank you.

06:52.840 --> 06:53.840
Thank you.

06:53.840 --> 06:54.840
Thank you.

06:54.840 --> 06:55.840
Thank you.

06:55.840 --> 06:56.840
Thank you.

06:56.840 --> 06:57.840
Thank you.

06:57.840 --> 06:58.840
Thank you.

06:58.840 --> 06:59.840
Thank you.

06:59.840 --> 07:00.840
Thank you.

07:00.840 --> 07:01.840
Thank you.

07:01.840 --> 07:02.840
Thank you.

07:02.840 --> 07:03.840
Thank you.

07:03.840 --> 07:04.840
Thank you.

07:04.840 --> 07:05.840
Thank you.

07:05.840 --> 07:06.840
Thank you.

07:06.840 --> 07:07.840
Thank you.

07:07.840 --> 07:08.840
Thank you.

07:08.840 --> 07:09.840
Thank you.

07:09.840 --> 07:10.840
Thank you.

07:10.840 --> 07:11.840
Thank you.

07:11.840 --> 07:12.840
Thank you.

07:12.840 --> 07:13.840
Thank you.

07:13.840 --> 07:14.840
Thank you.

07:14.840 --> 07:15.840
Thank you.

07:15.840 --> 07:16.840
Thank you.

07:16.840 --> 07:17.840
Thank you.

07:17.840 --> 07:18.840
Thank you.

07:18.840 --> 07:19.840
Thank you.

07:19.840 --> 07:20.840
Thank you.

07:20.840 --> 07:21.840
Thank you.

07:21.840 --> 07:22.840
Thank you.

07:22.840 --> 07:23.840
Thank you.

07:23.840 --> 07:24.840
Thank you.

07:24.840 --> 07:25.840
Thank you.

07:25.840 --> 07:26.840
Thank you.

07:26.840 --> 07:27.840
Thank you.

07:27.840 --> 07:28.840
Thank you.

07:28.840 --> 07:29.840
Thank you.

07:29.840 --> 07:30.840
Thank you.

07:30.840 --> 07:31.840
Thank you.

07:31.840 --> 07:32.840
Thank you.

07:32.840 --> 07:33.840
Thank you.

07:33.840 --> 07:34.840
Thank you.

07:34.840 --> 07:35.840
Thank you.

07:35.840 --> 07:36.840
Thank you.

07:36.840 --> 07:37.840
Thank you for that, Alice.

07:37.840 --> 07:41.840
Before I get started I'd like to introduce the members of our climate and culture committee.

07:41.840 --> 07:43.840
I'd love to have Anna Schurfinske.

07:43.840 --> 07:45.840
And the bulk of the chance to marry.

07:45.840 --> 07:46.840
Did I say that later?

07:46.840 --> 07:47.840
Okay.

07:47.840 --> 07:48.840
And then Emily Kizzarek.

07:48.840 --> 07:51.840
And like Linda said, I am Anna Hilder.

07:51.840 --> 07:52.840
So.

07:52.840 --> 07:53.840
Hello.

07:53.840 --> 07:54.840
I am Anna Hilder.

07:54.840 --> 07:55.840
I am Anna Hilder.

07:55.840 --> 07:56.840
I am Anna Hilder.

07:56.840 --> 07:57.840
I was born and raised in Annabelle.

07:57.840 --> 07:58.840
Graduated about 2020.

07:58.840 --> 08:00.840
And on my fourth year as a school counselor in the district.

08:01.840 --> 08:04.840
I never speak tonight as an employee of the Annabelle School District.

08:04.840 --> 08:06.840
And I'm all of the district culture and climate committee.

08:06.840 --> 08:10.840
Before I gave all of the data, I would also like the purpose that I hear tonight because

08:10.840 --> 08:11.840
I love AMGO.

08:11.840 --> 08:13.840
And I want to thank our district to flag together.

08:13.840 --> 08:16.840
I was surprised that I didn't really speak into it in my own words.

08:16.840 --> 08:19.840
And I am not receiving any special treatment opportunities for being here.

08:19.840 --> 08:22.840
We are communicating together with the nuts of bonus training.

08:22.840 --> 08:25.840
And also that we can create a stronger climate and culture within our district.

08:26.840 --> 08:30.840
Gail events in the last few years are currently in our district have obviously not been in

08:30.840 --> 08:31.840
the same page.

08:31.840 --> 08:32.840
And it is not known as for anyone.

08:32.840 --> 08:34.840
So I wanted to then job on our hands.

08:34.840 --> 08:37.840
One of our first projects was truth and questions for the staff survey.

08:37.840 --> 08:42.840
All of us in the team worked together to create a regular live survey that would provide us

08:42.840 --> 08:44.840
with feedback to then create goals to work towards.

08:44.840 --> 08:47.840
One hundred and fifty-five staff members coded out of the survey.

08:47.840 --> 08:49.840
Results coded out anonymously.

08:49.840 --> 08:51.840
And the data of the group allies that organized the data.

08:52.840 --> 08:56.840
But I want to tell you the events of the data and pick three terrible goals for the year.

08:56.840 --> 08:59.840
Let's start with two other positives for the survey.

08:59.840 --> 09:04.840
Now we have our 82% of staff struggling or agreeing that their work has purpose.

09:04.840 --> 09:07.840
This tells us that our teachers still have to teach.

09:07.840 --> 09:10.840
They are passionate about helping our students grow and learn.

09:10.840 --> 09:12.840
They are positive.

09:12.840 --> 09:18.840
8.9% of staff struggling or agreeing that they feel supported by their colleagues.

09:18.840 --> 09:22.840
This tells us that our staff builds bonds, works closely together and around each other

09:22.840 --> 09:23.840
for help in many areas.

09:23.840 --> 09:26.840
More on to some areas for improvement.

09:26.840 --> 09:30.840
52.26% of staff struggle or disagree.

09:30.840 --> 09:34.840
That professional development sessions have better help than their students' needs.

09:34.840 --> 09:38.840
This is a tele-statement for administration and it opens the door to collaborate with staff

09:38.840 --> 09:43.840
regarding that they think they can benefit from regarding pain delays and how their time is spent.

09:43.840 --> 09:45.840
Another area for improvement.

09:45.840 --> 09:51.840
52.1.61% of staff struggle and disagree that they will be able to receive useful feedback.

09:51.840 --> 09:55.840
This again will provide joy for administration and all staff to shutter their out.

09:55.840 --> 09:58.840
So avoid the good and provide doubts for improvement.

09:58.840 --> 10:00.840
Our last area for improvement.

10:00.840 --> 10:08.840
64.16% of staff struggle and disagree or disagree that the district core explores the reasons behind decisions on key issues.

10:08.840 --> 10:13.840
Communication for people is a need, especially educators who love a good email.

10:14.840 --> 10:23.840
Our first goal is to provide staff with an hour of culture and climate time during each professional development day.

10:23.840 --> 10:25.840
So what does that look like?

10:25.840 --> 10:31.840
While requesting for a while of time, first they have to do something that benefits themselves, their classrooms, and their students.

10:31.840 --> 10:38.840
This might look like golden papers or looking at a lesson planning, but it also might look like a district-wide walk, a book club, or a game of pickle ball.

10:38.840 --> 10:45.840
Our team hopes that this boost fail is of value, decreases fail as a burnout, and emphasizes the importance of staff while being.

10:45.840 --> 10:51.840
To allow the score, we will ask for feedback for the staff made way through the year and changer approach by some of their thoughts and opinions.

10:51.840 --> 10:57.840
Our second goal is that climate and culture staff members will shut out two staff members from each building level a month.

10:57.840 --> 11:00.840
We will showcase staff for day of things that exhibit our strategic priorities.

11:00.840 --> 11:06.840
So don't achieve that in success, encourage community engagement, and cultivate talent and invest in our people.

11:06.840 --> 11:11.840
This shout-outs will be added into our monthly staff newsletter for all district personnel to see.

11:11.840 --> 11:17.840
Connecting our students and staff to our district will be creased to our behaviors and increase the sense of belonging for all.

11:17.840 --> 11:22.840
Our third goal is for cultural and climate climate members to be advocates for staff.

11:22.840 --> 11:27.840
When a brand comes around to administration, I put the bell in their court to communicate with staff accordingly.

11:27.840 --> 11:31.840
We hope that this will increase communication on those small and large scale problems.

11:31.840 --> 11:37.840
Before we finish tonight, I want to add that upon to share not only to our board, but to our entire community.

11:37.840 --> 11:40.840
If you must want more than for tonight, please listen to this.

11:40.840 --> 11:48.840
Our summary feedback will be that our 43.9% of staff strongly agree or agree that they feel appreciated by our community.

11:48.840 --> 11:57.840
We all, even staff members, have been confused and are saddened by some of the decisions that have been removed or advanced that have occurred in recent times.

11:57.840 --> 12:00.840
However, we cannot keep level in the past and focus in the negative.

12:00.840 --> 12:02.840
We have to find a way to move forward.

12:02.840 --> 12:06.840
We have to start working together and listen to each other, not just talk.

12:06.840 --> 12:13.840
We need to think of those feeling activities surrounding the topic of the Inigo School District, especially on the social media.

12:13.840 --> 12:21.840
The lack of support, the broken relationships, the unkind of words, and so on and plastered all their Facebook for care owners and students to see their needs to stop.

12:21.840 --> 12:26.840
Despite all of this, we still show up each and every day, and it's a discouraging feeling.

12:26.840 --> 12:32.840
So it is really difficult to get through with this moment in our faces, especially when they stand in front of our students.

12:32.840 --> 12:36.840
The most part of it is that it hurts them. They're sealed and full of it, too.

12:36.840 --> 12:39.840
One of the adults, the role models, and the mentors.

12:39.840 --> 12:46.840
As hard as it has, they're all begging for us all to take a moment and reflect on our behavior, all the words, our choices, and our goals.

12:46.840 --> 12:50.840
And it's time to put more emphasis on our lives and things that our staff and students are doing.

12:50.840 --> 12:54.840
All of that can be a goal one and should all work together to get back on the same team.

12:54.840 --> 12:56.840
And go Red Robbins.

12:56.840 --> 12:57.840
Thank you.

12:57.840 --> 13:05.840
Thank you very much, ladies. Keep up the good work.

13:05.840 --> 13:09.840
I want to see public comment.

13:09.840 --> 13:14.840
I will be reading our limitations rules, if you will.

14:01.840 --> 14:05.840
Each student might be able to participate should be limited to five-minute duration.

14:05.840 --> 14:11.840

15:00.840 --> 15:07.840
In order to go down those end speakers, this is not a conversation between the board and the person speaking at the microphone.

15:07.840 --> 15:13.840
The person at the microphone will be allotted. I follow minutes to speak and I move to the next person who has signed up to speak.

15:14.840 --> 15:21.840
So, with that moved and carried by those a first speaker.

15:21.840 --> 15:48.840
Good evening. My name is Carol Bardo and I'm a 38-year resident of the City of Annago.

15:48.840 --> 16:09.840
Tonight I would like to voice my support for the board action item A and encourage each of you to delay your decision and any recommendations concerning actions on the Clara R. McKenna Aquatic Center until you have done a district-wide survey and see the results and take a look at what people are saying.

16:09.840 --> 16:22.840
My position on this pool situation is not anti-pool. It is anti-clarity and I would really like there be time to hear what everyone has to say.

16:22.840 --> 16:31.840
I'm compelled to remind you you are a nine-member governing body. You represent 19 municipalities and that's what makes up our school district.

16:31.840 --> 16:44.840
You charge to be the face of 18,862 people. That's taken from the 2020 census so I'm sure it's a little off but I didn't know where else to find the numbers.

16:44.840 --> 16:52.840
Those are the children that are in our districts and per data from our city director of Parks and Recs.

16:52.840 --> 17:04.840
The Annago Center users was approximately 862. I'm assuming that is, I got that from an element that is from last year's memberships.

17:04.840 --> 17:10.840
Both of our numbers are not card and stone but it gives us some idea of usage.

17:10.840 --> 17:16.840
That number represents 4.5% to 5% of the district population.

17:16.840 --> 17:22.840
Over the last three weeks I have sent out a total of 40 letters and I'm really tired.

17:22.840 --> 17:38.840
30 of those went with a longitudinal levy history and were sent to town chairman except for one which I sent to your clerk but I did bring a copy because I thought that might be considered a conflict of interest and I didn't want to put one of our board members in that situation.

17:38.840 --> 17:43.840
So I brought one with me if you have not had a chance.

17:43.840 --> 17:59.840
I just in that letter it was not in any way trying to buy us one way or other but just to explain to people what fund 80 is and where that money comes from because in conversing with people over the last few months, there were many people I've met that had absolutely no idea.

17:59.840 --> 18:02.840
And that was my purpose.

18:02.840 --> 18:23.840
The remaining 10 letters with additional 50 pages per support data were sent to state elected officials, state agencies and legal entities with the primary focus of I really think we need to do a forensic audit of this district going back to see where money has gone and where it's come from.

18:23.840 --> 18:26.840
That has not been clear that with the documentation.

18:26.840 --> 18:38.840
Ms. Fazmer did a wonderful job of doing a deep dive and it appears that there were about $7 million that was unauthorized and that's based only on the lack of documentation.

18:38.840 --> 18:46.840
And that's why I think a forensic audit would help all of us to know where our money's gone and to go forward so we can make a plan.

18:46.840 --> 18:51.840
I grew up in a swimming family in the south, my brother won state for years.

18:51.840 --> 19:00.840
I mean it is not something I am anti at all but I as a former elected official feel we need to be responsible for money.

19:00.840 --> 19:12.840
And if you look in the past where money has been spent over those years with $7 million was spent and during that time six of our rural schools were closed because of insufficient funds.

19:12.840 --> 19:22.840
We've had budget limits that restricted staff salaries in fact I believe at least since I've been here there has been one year that staff did not get raised.

19:22.840 --> 19:35.840
And due to the limitations we have three aging elementary buildings that were allowed to degrade because there was not money and there wasn't even as I recall at some time there was not even a maintenance budget.

19:35.840 --> 19:43.840
So these are all issues that we as a whole need to be looking at where should we be using our money and that's all I ask.

19:43.840 --> 19:58.840
Is that the students and the taxpayers of all the municipalities have some accountability and that going forward we could all work together to come up a plan that meets everybody needs and not just special special groups.

19:58.840 --> 19:59.840
Thank you for this time.

19:59.840 --> 20:01.840
Thank you Carol.

20:01.840 --> 20:05.840
Thank you Carol.

20:05.840 --> 20:07.840
Next up I have Melissa.

20:07.840 --> 20:27.840
I apologize I don't have much of a voice right now but I am also a fig.

20:27.840 --> 20:37.840
I will I've been coaching middle school track and cross country third year for cross country it'll be my fifth season come spring for track.

20:37.840 --> 20:38.840
Excuse me.

20:38.840 --> 20:51.840
And I am speaking on behalf of several parents of the children athletes that I coach and the athletes themselves who are very hardworking dedicated kids.

20:51.840 --> 20:54.840
I am not opposed to football or football stadium.

20:54.840 --> 21:00.840
I know that this is high school football was awesome as a kid.

21:00.840 --> 21:04.840
It is important that something gets addressed with it.

21:04.840 --> 21:14.840
But now it is being proposed as a sports complex which I can excuse you understanding the majority funding is now going to be requested through the school.

21:15.840 --> 21:17.840
Part of portion of it I should say.

21:17.840 --> 21:22.840
But I am also not opposed to having a sports complex facility.

21:22.840 --> 21:25.840
But a question why a track is not a part of it.

21:25.840 --> 21:40.840
You know I've been an athlete most of my life I've been all the US running track and majority of all of these stadiums football stadium was there the track was on the outside of it.

21:41.840 --> 21:50.840
Even our local moving schools it is that set up that way.

21:50.840 --> 21:57.840
So I'm addressing that part of possibly do we include a track in the stadium.

21:57.840 --> 22:05.840
I know a lot of people aren't thinking that's nuts but let me get back to my track of notes here though.

22:05.840 --> 22:10.840
Currently we have JC track which is not even should be considered a track at all.

22:10.840 --> 22:15.840
For middle schoolers we don't have a track so we've been using the high school track.

22:15.840 --> 22:20.840
My team went from approximately 22 kids.

22:20.840 --> 22:27.840
The first year I started coaching track to 1.0 or 68 the majority.

22:27.840 --> 22:32.840
Get those kids and then your high school kids on one track plus me have soccer.

22:33.840 --> 22:42.840
It's really difficult to get anything done and we extend our track practice so that we can have these moments my clock never started.

22:42.840 --> 22:44.840
Yeah I saw that.

22:44.840 --> 22:47.840
Sorry at 642 I'm watching it on my computer so you're good.

22:47.840 --> 22:48.840
You're good.

22:48.840 --> 22:57.840
So there's also unfortunately the sharing of the track currently with the soccer teams.

22:57.840 --> 23:04.840
They're asked to leave our practices which we practice on a track majority because the soccer has a meet.

23:04.840 --> 23:12.840
So we cut our practices in half frequently enough and that is not on their fault it's just the way our setup is.

23:12.840 --> 23:19.840
So a question on this because I was here at the meeting last where it was a beautiful presentation.

23:19.840 --> 23:33.840
It was a beautiful complex but today I was a coach and to work hard as a coach and to work hard with my kids to show up at this beautiful complex with everything for them.

23:33.840 --> 23:39.840
And then we can't even hold a meet after daylight hours.

23:39.840 --> 23:43.840
We can't hold a post conference meet because of our we have our lights.

23:43.840 --> 23:46.840
We have a PA system that is rolled in.

23:46.840 --> 23:51.840
We don't have any formal seating for parents and family.

23:51.840 --> 23:53.840
Usually it's on the fence line.

23:53.840 --> 23:57.840
They're a little bit your seating.

23:57.840 --> 24:01.840
And we barely have anything for bathrooms and concessions.

24:01.840 --> 24:08.840
And so to see this big complex and to see our track that we can't do much with.

24:08.840 --> 24:22.840
Yes it's a beautiful track but I think that some possibilities of including the track or ideas for this complex to include track along with all the other sports that it's claiming to be a part for.

24:22.840 --> 24:27.840
Some of the ideas.

24:27.840 --> 24:28.840
Yeah about 30 seconds.

24:28.840 --> 24:30.840
Okay so some of the ideas.

24:30.840 --> 24:32.840
Sorry I wish I had my clock.

24:32.840 --> 24:45.840
Is that if we can do you have the track included or you know I must have been told it's a possibility of having consideration of lights, bathrooms, buildings, seating and a PA system at the track.

24:45.840 --> 24:50.840
It's just it's a passionate heart.

24:50.840 --> 24:55.840
And not many kids just as valued as the rest of the school.

24:55.840 --> 25:01.840
So I asked for your consideration and this project to include the angle track athletes middle school and high school.

25:01.840 --> 25:10.840
The old track in soccer field I think should remain and we would have that as another track for practice.

25:10.840 --> 25:17.840
Well soccer is doing a note or whoever could be used for football practices if that's a possibility.

25:18.840 --> 25:29.840
But I just ask that we're taking consideration that my kids also deserve to be under the lights and be a part of this plan. Thank you for your time.

25:29.840 --> 25:36.840
Thank you also.

25:48.840 --> 25:49.840
Good evening.

25:49.840 --> 25:52.840
I'm just here to talk about that sports complex as well.

25:52.840 --> 25:56.840
I'm Kevin Foley community member head varsity baseball coach.

25:56.840 --> 26:00.840
I'm here to support all the student athletes here in the annual school district.

26:00.840 --> 26:04.840
I fully support the idea of moving this facility to the main campus of the district.

26:04.840 --> 26:13.840
I believe though we need to unite as a community and include the track and field component as well as well with the well designed plan the grid iron club has proposed.

26:13.840 --> 26:18.840
It only makes sense to push our youth into athletics as head varsity baseball coach.

26:18.840 --> 26:25.840
I truly believe track and field is something we can't neglect with this tremendous opportunity.

26:25.840 --> 26:33.840
This idea will only benefit our football program by keeping our athletes in competition year round or at least another season.

26:33.840 --> 26:37.840
What better activity to promote speed strength and endurance than track and field.

26:37.840 --> 26:42.840
That's exactly what our football program and athletics department needs.

26:42.840 --> 26:53.840
This opportunity provides the ability to support all track and field athletes as well as promote your own competition for all our athletes by providing high quality place to compete and a place to be proud of.

26:53.840 --> 26:59.840
The decision to build this complex should include a facility similar to other complexes in the state.

26:59.840 --> 27:05.840
We can't divide our athletes because they all need each other to be successful in what they choose to do.

27:05.840 --> 27:11.840
I hope we can make a decision that is the best choice for all our student athletes with this proposal. Thank you.

27:11.840 --> 27:12.840
Thank you.

27:12.840 --> 27:13.840
Thank you.

27:13.840 --> 27:17.840
J.A.R.R.P.C.

27:17.840 --> 27:24.840
J.A.R.R.P.C.

27:24.840 --> 27:29.840
Good evening.

27:29.840 --> 27:30.840
Why am I here?

27:30.840 --> 27:36.840
Well, because a long time ago I was a student athlete at City Van Gogh in high school.

27:37.840 --> 27:39.840
I actually was a four sport athlete.

27:39.840 --> 27:41.840
I played football, basketball, tennis in the summertime.

27:41.840 --> 27:42.840
I played baseball.

27:42.840 --> 27:48.840
I was fortunate enough to have a nice girlfriend, Judy Williams, and we were at prom king and prom queen.

27:48.840 --> 27:54.840
Students and the faculty and basically selected me to go to Badger Boys State.

27:54.840 --> 27:56.840
So I have a pretty strong history.

27:56.840 --> 27:59.840
But why am I here for this project?

27:59.840 --> 28:02.840
And the answer is I've done it before.

28:02.840 --> 28:03.840
I live in the pier.

28:03.840 --> 28:04.840
I taught at the pier.

28:04.840 --> 28:06.840
My kids went to the pier.

28:06.840 --> 28:11.840
And we had significant capital campaigns for different events.

28:11.840 --> 28:14.840
And I was one of the key people.

28:14.840 --> 28:19.840
So, I think what I have tonight for you is kind of a summary of where we are.

28:19.840 --> 28:23.840
And I'd like to, you know, kind of just read it if you don't mind.

28:23.840 --> 28:29.840
First, thank you for allowing us to pursue this project for the last 18 months.

28:30.840 --> 28:33.840
That's when we had our very first meeting.

28:33.840 --> 28:39.840
And secondly, for taking the time, excuse me, especially tonight, to just even consider it.

28:39.840 --> 28:50.840
In the middle of the park, the middle school field was built in the depression by the EPA in 1948.

28:50.840 --> 28:57.840
The faculty has served this community well, hosting countless squad games, maybe a couple

28:57.840 --> 28:58.840
of them here.

28:58.840 --> 29:03.840
The remarkable athletes, you know, and one of us, the geronations available for families

29:03.840 --> 29:05.840
care within, to today.

29:05.840 --> 29:13.840
But after a couple of decades of service, the squad field is now old, tired, and shy of

29:13.840 --> 29:14.840
an age.

29:14.840 --> 29:19.840
It is terrible to learn a little more tired with the dignity that she deserves.

29:19.840 --> 29:23.840
In the school environment, you have a very difficult decision to make.

29:23.840 --> 29:27.840
In a sense, you will have an impact far beyond the same way.

29:27.840 --> 29:34.840
It will affect current and future studies, past alumni, virtual and my parents, coaches,

29:34.840 --> 29:39.840
the business community, and all that support annego.

29:39.840 --> 29:43.840
The challenges surrounding the current facility will not go away.

29:43.840 --> 29:49.840
The learning of this decision will increase future costs and potential effect for the

29:49.840 --> 29:50.840
community.

29:50.840 --> 29:54.840
In private convenience, that are available already to me.

29:54.840 --> 30:01.840
One of the completed designs, one of course estimates, will be available for the 36

30:01.840 --> 30:02.840
resources.

30:02.840 --> 30:04.840
There will be interest in meeting opportunities.

30:04.840 --> 30:07.840
We have substantial private donations in hand.

30:07.840 --> 30:12.840
In order to have some other current order consideration.

30:12.840 --> 30:14.840
This is one of the football field.

30:14.840 --> 30:20.840
It is about providing a self-accessible environment facility for all of the

30:20.840 --> 30:21.840
annego students.

30:21.840 --> 30:25.840
It is about supporting the strengthening of our community.

30:25.840 --> 30:33.840
In a 18 year period, tradition, and legacy, the generations of the annego alumni have

30:33.840 --> 30:34.840
carried forward.

30:34.840 --> 30:40.840
A problem is for us equal annego to annego to provide a first class facility

30:40.840 --> 30:42.840
for its students and the community.

30:42.840 --> 30:48.840
It will create opportunities for athletics, for physical education, for community

30:48.840 --> 30:53.840
events, and activities that bring people together, which is important for any

30:53.840 --> 30:54.840
community.

30:54.840 --> 30:59.840
It will enable a growth in the development of current service, improve the learning,

30:59.840 --> 31:01.840
and help the business community.

31:01.840 --> 31:07.840
So our community respectfully asks you to vote yes and allow this project to

31:07.840 --> 31:10.840
continue as soon as this fall.

31:10.840 --> 31:11.840
Thank you very much.

31:11.840 --> 31:12.840
Thank you.

31:12.840 --> 31:13.840
Thank you.

31:13.840 --> 31:14.840
Thank you.

31:14.840 --> 31:15.840
Tom Collins.

31:15.840 --> 31:17.840
Sure, little guy.

31:17.840 --> 31:18.840
Thank you.

31:18.840 --> 31:24.840
Shifting here is completely, I just want to make a comment about the survey for the

31:24.840 --> 31:25.840
Aquatic Center.

31:26.840 --> 31:44.840
One of the girls certainly, it's very important, let's get the feedback from our community,

31:44.840 --> 31:46.840
but very challenging.

31:46.840 --> 31:50.840
And I was going to talk about the numbers and the challenges we're trying to

31:50.840 --> 31:54.840
gather at information, because I have three points as to what's going to make it very

31:54.840 --> 31:55.840
challenging.

31:55.840 --> 31:59.840
And one of them is that we're really short of time.

31:59.840 --> 32:01.840
You as a board have to decide.

32:01.840 --> 32:06.840
And let's see, this is September 21st and nine to eight days we're in October after

32:06.840 --> 32:07.840
coming tomorrow.

32:07.840 --> 32:09.840
So that would be challenging.

32:09.840 --> 32:15.840
But I wanted to share something with you since there is more, as people from the

32:15.840 --> 32:20.840
Y had said, there is more to this pool than the money.

32:20.840 --> 32:23.840
I looked at some statistics from CDC and elsewhere.

32:23.840 --> 32:27.840
Each and USA 4,000 people die from drowning.

32:27.840 --> 32:32.840
8,000 more have new drowning incidents that require ER care.

32:32.840 --> 32:34.840
Children ages one to four.

32:34.840 --> 32:38.840
The number one cause of death is drowning.

32:38.840 --> 32:40.840
Children ages five to 14.

32:40.840 --> 32:44.840
The number two cause of death is drowning.

32:44.840 --> 32:51.840
It's probably one of those facilities like the Y offer toddler swimming lessons.

32:51.840 --> 32:57.840
My Ukrainian orphan that lives with us has one year old daughter over there learning to

32:57.840 --> 32:58.840
swim.

32:58.840 --> 33:02.840
My oldest daughter nearly drowned when she was two years old.

33:02.840 --> 33:08.840
But looking back at her and her four brothers learned how to swim as toddlers came from

33:08.840 --> 33:11.840
me and their mom because the pool wasn't here.

33:11.840 --> 33:16.840
But definitely I want you to think about that and really give yourselves the time and

33:16.840 --> 33:17.840
the community the time.

33:17.840 --> 33:23.840
And I think I personally know I was coming through six people who have drowned.

33:23.840 --> 33:30.840
And if one of them could have been saved, what would that be worth?

33:30.840 --> 33:31.840
It's hard.

33:31.840 --> 33:32.840
You have a hard job.

33:32.840 --> 33:34.840
But thank you for listening to that.

33:34.840 --> 33:36.840
And I know this is not my place.

33:36.840 --> 33:42.840
But I also for Deanna, I have the check for the contribution that we promised on September

33:42.840 --> 33:43.840
3rd.

33:43.840 --> 33:49.840
So there's a cover explaining and there's the check.

33:49.840 --> 33:50.840
Okay.

33:50.840 --> 33:52.840
125,000 came from donors.

33:52.840 --> 33:57.840
25,000 came from the Sheldon Foundation, which we applied for on June 30th, the very last

33:57.840 --> 34:01.840
day that the applications were accepted.

34:01.840 --> 34:03.840
And so the check has come to the district recently.

34:03.840 --> 34:05.840
Isn't that right, Deanna?

34:05.840 --> 34:06.840
Okay.

34:06.840 --> 34:12.840
So just a little explanation saying that you take something and write it.

34:12.840 --> 34:13.840
Sorry.

34:13.840 --> 34:17.840
A discussion of how we got here and what we got.

34:17.840 --> 34:18.840
Thank you.

34:18.840 --> 34:19.840
Thank you.

34:20.840 --> 34:21.840
Okay.

34:21.840 --> 34:23.840
And then I will give you a seat.

34:23.840 --> 34:24.840
Okay.

34:24.840 --> 34:26.840
So there, thanks for listening.

34:26.840 --> 34:27.840
Thanks, Tom.

34:27.840 --> 34:28.840
Thank you.

34:28.840 --> 34:50.840
Ted Bielanski.

34:50.840 --> 35:15.840
On

35:15.840 --> 35:16.840
behalf of the entire football team.

35:16.840 --> 35:21.840
We want to thank our school board for everything you do for us, our classmates and our community.

35:21.840 --> 35:25.840
We know that the decisions you make take time and a lot of thought.

35:25.840 --> 35:30.840
We truly appreciate your commitment to giving the students a venue of the best opportunities

35:30.840 --> 35:31.840
possible.

35:31.840 --> 35:35.840
We also know that being here tonight at so many other meetings means you have missed family

35:35.840 --> 35:39.840
dinners, your own children's activities, and instead of past your bedtime to serve our

35:39.840 --> 35:40.840
district.

35:40.840 --> 35:41.840
That doesn't go unnoticed.

35:41.840 --> 35:44.840
And we are grateful for the sacrifices you make for us.

35:44.840 --> 35:48.840
We are here tonight to share our strong support and hope that you see the value of the new sports

35:48.840 --> 35:49.840
complex.

35:49.840 --> 35:50.840
This isn't just about football.

35:50.840 --> 35:55.840
It's about creating a place where so many of our friends and teammates can grow and succeed

35:55.840 --> 35:59.840
at all levels of football, soccer, baseball, and the golf team.

35:59.840 --> 36:03.840
We will have benefit from safe, modern facilities, and our marching band will have a quality

36:03.840 --> 36:05.840
space to rehearse and perform.

36:05.840 --> 36:09.840
If I had classes from the high school and new elementary school, we'll have access during

36:09.840 --> 36:10.840
the school day.

36:10.840 --> 36:15.840
This complex will also bring our school together, give us pride in what we play, and showing

36:15.840 --> 36:17.840
the visiting teams the community we are.

36:17.840 --> 36:19.840
Right now our football stadium is beyond a pair.

36:19.840 --> 36:23.840
Only half the lights work, making games at night dark and unsafe.

36:23.840 --> 36:26.840
The seating for our fans is limited and in poor condition.

36:26.840 --> 36:31.840
There are currently only two handicapped parking spots and no more for our elderly or

36:31.840 --> 36:32.840
compromised fans to sit.

36:32.840 --> 36:36.840
The sound system does not work at all, so you cannot hear the announcer during the game.

36:36.840 --> 36:40.840
Most embarrassing for us, the visiting team has nowhere to prepare to fulfill the games.

36:40.840 --> 36:43.840
No restrooms to use, and no shelter from other.

36:43.840 --> 36:48.840
We want to represent our school with pride, but as hard when our facilities do not reflect

36:48.840 --> 36:50.840
the effort we put in on the field.

36:50.840 --> 36:55.840
We believe that the new sports complex will be a place where athletes, musicians, families,

36:55.840 --> 36:59.840
and fans can come together to create memories for years to come.

36:59.840 --> 37:02.840
We are ready to work hard, play hard, and make our school proud.

37:02.840 --> 37:04.840
We just need the facilities to match that spirit.

37:04.840 --> 37:07.840
Thank you, and thank you for believing in us.

37:07.840 --> 37:08.840
Thank you.

37:17.840 --> 37:18.840
Andrew Tanta.

37:35.840 --> 37:36.840
Yeah.

37:47.840 --> 37:48.840
Good evening.

37:48.840 --> 37:49.840
My name is Ray Daven.

37:49.840 --> 37:53.840
I am the president of the Great Iron Club, and the president of literally baseball as well.

37:53.840 --> 37:56.840
Thank you for allowing me a few moments tonight.

37:56.840 --> 38:01.840
I want to begin by simply saying thank you for considering the Antigua athletic facility

38:01.840 --> 38:06.840
project, and for the time and responsibility you put in evaluating it.

38:06.840 --> 38:12.840
We understand that decisions involving school resources are significant, and that at times

38:12.840 --> 38:17.840
the decisions you have to make may not make everybody in the community happy.

38:17.840 --> 38:25.840
There will always be small groups of that disagree, and particularly, I'm sorry.

38:25.840 --> 38:30.840
There will always be small groups who disagree with a particular decision,

38:30.840 --> 38:35.840
but we appreciate that you have the responsibility to look at the bigger picture,

38:35.840 --> 38:42.840
to make decisions based on what you know and what is best for the school, the staff, community,

38:42.840 --> 38:44.840
and most importantly, our children.

38:44.840 --> 38:48.840
This project is about much more than a facility.

38:48.840 --> 38:54.840
It's about creating opportunities for our kids and providing a place that can serve students

38:54.840 --> 38:57.840
and the community across a number of different programs.

38:57.840 --> 39:04.840
It is about giving our kids a facility they can be proud of, a place that represents the pride

39:04.840 --> 39:10.840
we have in our schools, in our community, and shows our children that we believe in them

39:10.840 --> 39:13.840
and that we are willing to invest in their future.

39:13.840 --> 39:19.840
To help put that into perspective, the students and young athletes who could utilize this facility

39:19.840 --> 39:27.840
include 61 7th and 8th grade football players, 56 high school football players,

39:27.840 --> 39:34.840
104 little league baseball players, 44 Babe Ruth baseball players,

39:34.840 --> 39:41.840
39 high school level baseball players, 100 softball players across all levels,

39:41.840 --> 39:48.840
24 high school golfers, 49 high school soccer players boys and girls,

39:48.840 --> 39:54.840
52 marching band numbers, and 236 youth soccer players.

39:54.840 --> 39:59.840
That represents 765 students across just those programs,

39:59.840 --> 40:05.840
not to mention the roughly 800 enrolled in the high school that can utilize it for PE.

40:06.840 --> 40:10.840
And I want to apologize if I missed any associations or programs.

40:10.840 --> 40:14.840
I know there are others who can and will utilize this facility,

40:14.840 --> 40:18.840
and that is part of what makes this project so meaningful.

40:18.840 --> 40:23.840
We want better to number students to be here tonight because we wanted you to see first-hand

40:23.840 --> 40:27.840
the young people who you would benefit this investment.

40:27.840 --> 40:30.840
If they're still here, if all of you could stand.

40:35.840 --> 40:47.840
These are just a small number of kids we are doing this for.

40:47.840 --> 40:51.840
They represent different sports, different ages, and different programs,

40:51.840 --> 40:54.840
but they all share something in common.

40:54.840 --> 40:59.840
They're all part of our community, and they deserve opportunities to grow, compete,

40:59.840 --> 41:02.840
and succeed in a facility that they can be proud of.

41:03.840 --> 41:07.840
To all the athletes, families, coaches, volunteers, and community members

41:07.840 --> 41:10.840
who have supported this effort, thank you.

41:10.840 --> 41:14.840
And to the school board members, thank you for the difficult decision,

41:14.840 --> 41:18.840
or the difficult work you do, and for being willing to make decisions

41:18.840 --> 41:23.840
with a long-term interest of the community and our children in mind.

41:23.840 --> 41:26.840
We recognize the responsibility that comes with that,

41:26.840 --> 41:30.840
and we are genuinely grateful for the consideration and your support.

41:30.840 --> 41:34.840
Thank you for listening to me, and thank you for everything you do.

41:34.840 --> 41:35.840
Thank you.

41:35.840 --> 41:36.840
Thank you.

41:36.840 --> 41:37.840
Thank you.

41:37.840 --> 41:38.840
Thank you.

41:38.840 --> 41:39.840
Thank you.

41:39.840 --> 41:43.840
And I also do have a young John Reitz, our golf coach,

41:43.840 --> 41:46.840
was not able to be here tonight, but he did share this email with us

41:46.840 --> 41:48.840
that he wanted me to share with you as well.

41:48.840 --> 41:51.840
I can provide that to you if you'd like to read that.

41:51.840 --> 41:52.840
Thank you.

41:52.840 --> 41:59.840
Andrew Tanton.

41:59.840 --> 42:07.840
Good evening.

42:07.840 --> 42:15.840
My name is Andrew Tanton.

42:15.840 --> 42:18.840
I'm here representing the Annago swim club.

42:18.840 --> 42:22.840
I'm the Annago swim club's head coach.

42:22.840 --> 42:29.840
And I wanted to talk with you guys tonight about the survey that you're proposing to send out.

42:29.840 --> 42:32.840
Over the past few months, the district has provided the community

42:32.840 --> 42:38.840
with dramatically different estimates on what the pool actually costs to operate.

42:38.840 --> 42:42.840
Really, estimates were around $650,000 annually.

42:43.840 --> 42:53.840
The two hours prior to that estimate for 24 and 25 were in the $450,000 to $500,000 range.

42:53.840 --> 42:56.840
Those numbers have climbed drastically over the months.

42:56.840 --> 43:01.840
Later statements put operating costs closer to a million.

43:01.840 --> 43:09.840
Well, unless the district budget, there's a claimed $800 and some $1,000 for $26 and $27.

43:09.840 --> 43:15.840
That's a range from $650,000 to $1,000 on the same facility.

43:15.840 --> 43:21.840
And if things changed, we've been having the same conversation for the last six months.

43:21.840 --> 43:25.840
It's not a small margin, it's a 54% variance.

43:25.840 --> 43:30.840
So I'm going to stay on the urgency we're in right now to get a handle on the finances

43:30.840 --> 43:38.840
and nobody is going to pretend that there's not some financial difficulties that need to be worked out.

43:39.840 --> 43:46.840
But I think before we do anything, we have to understand what we're actually looking at.

43:46.840 --> 43:53.840
The Strabona survey asking the community whether they want to fund $890,000 annually operating.

43:53.840 --> 43:57.840
You're going to ask if they're willing to pay more taxes.

43:57.840 --> 44:04.840
You're going to ask how they prefer to be taxed, whether they want to school levy, the city, the county.

44:04.840 --> 44:07.840
And when I look at this survey, it's very confusing.

44:07.840 --> 44:12.840
I've been involved with this for the entire time that we've been talking about this.

44:12.840 --> 44:18.840
And when I look at that survey, my eyes roll back because there's a lot of confusing information.

44:18.840 --> 44:21.840
Information's not clearly disseminated.

44:21.840 --> 44:26.840
And nobody is really even agreeing on what the information is.

44:26.840 --> 44:29.840
What are we supposed to be voting on?

44:29.840 --> 44:34.840
It's $190,000, $650,000.

44:34.840 --> 44:42.840
We'll be comfortable in understanding of what the actual cost is before you send out a survey into the community asking what they want.

44:42.840 --> 44:44.840
I think that's extremely important.

44:44.840 --> 44:49.840
And it will lay this whole thing to rest if you guys decide to do that at some point.

44:49.840 --> 44:54.840
But now's not the right time.

44:54.840 --> 44:59.840
I don't know when your own administration has numbers all over the board.

44:59.840 --> 45:04.840
It's not only improper, but it's reckless.

45:04.840 --> 45:06.840
And it's confusing.

45:06.840 --> 45:09.840
It's going to confuse people in the community.

45:09.840 --> 45:17.840
If a common number looks at what the survey thinks, and they think, wait, cost $1,000 last month, and now it's $890,000.

45:17.840 --> 45:23.840
And they look further into it and realize that back in April, the amount was proposed at $650,000.

45:23.840 --> 45:26.840
There's going to be questions.

45:26.840 --> 45:33.840
And I appreciate the financial information that you guys gave out a couple of weeks ago.

45:33.840 --> 45:40.840
But there's a lot more information in there that I think is shrouded in ambiguity that the public doesn't understand.

45:40.840 --> 45:46.840
Now, someone who works in those numbers all the time may understand that, but it's not.

45:46.840 --> 45:51.840
The way it was laid out in the survey was not clear.

45:51.840 --> 45:56.840
So now I'm asking you guys to indefinitely delay this, but we need to understand what these numbers are.

45:56.840 --> 46:02.840
We need to understand what the operational changes are, why they're changing.

46:02.840 --> 46:09.840
And we need to get to the bottom of the fund 10, fund 80 debate.

46:09.840 --> 46:18.840
DPI requires that if you are going to operate in this manner that you look at,

46:18.840 --> 46:21.840
what does it cost the school district to operate?

46:21.840 --> 46:26.840
And anything above that is going to be community expense.

46:26.840 --> 46:30.840
Well, we don't really fully understand what it costs.

46:30.840 --> 46:43.840
And there were some numbers thrown out in the press release on, I don't remember the exact amount of garbage and toilet paper and other different miscellaneous expenditures.

46:43.840 --> 46:48.840
That money was for the entire district, and that was not clearly articulated.

46:48.840 --> 46:51.840
That's the type of thing that needs to be clearly articulated.

46:51.840 --> 46:53.840
What does it cost the pool?

46:53.840 --> 46:55.840
And what does it cost the school?

46:55.840 --> 47:05.840
And digging deeper of what it costs the pool, what is community, and what is fund 10?

47:05.840 --> 47:12.840
I think the community is going to accept the truth, then we finally get to it, but you need to get to the truth before you send this out.

47:13.840 --> 47:14.840
Thanks.

47:14.840 --> 47:15.840
Thank you.

47:15.840 --> 47:16.840
Thank you.

47:16.840 --> 47:17.840
Okay.

47:17.840 --> 47:26.840
We'll read one and a number three on our area, the consent agenda.

47:26.840 --> 47:34.840
I'll be looking for a motion.

47:35.840 --> 47:37.840
The Board approve the agenda.

47:37.840 --> 47:43.840
August 17th, 2026, Board of Education meeting minutes, August 18th, 2026, and August 26th, 2026.

47:43.840 --> 47:49.840
Our McKenna Aquatic Center subcommittee meeting minutes, September 3rd, 2026 special called.

47:49.840 --> 47:56.840
Board meeting minutes, September 14th, 2026 building and grounds committee meeting minutes, September 15th and 16th,

47:56.840 --> 47:59.840
2026 board retreat meeting minutes.

48:00.840 --> 48:05.840
Report of district new hires, report of resignations in retirements, overnight school activity trips.

48:05.840 --> 48:08.840
Financial reports for August, 2026.

48:08.840 --> 48:13.840
In September, 2026 consideration of current bills checks number 9924 through 9979.

48:13.840 --> 48:17.840
And the amount of 90,063 dollars and 71 cents.

48:17.840 --> 48:25.840
ACH is numbers 26270069 through 262700236.

48:25.840 --> 48:39.840
And the amount of 940,683.57 cents and wire transfers in the amount of $5475.81 for a total of $1,036,223.09.

48:39.840 --> 48:41.840
Would you like to speak to your motion?

48:41.840 --> 48:43.840
No, thank you.

48:43.840 --> 48:53.840
Deanna, I have to abstain from ACH 262700164.

48:53.840 --> 48:54.840
Questions?

48:55.840 --> 48:57.840
I'd like to make an amendment to that motion.

48:57.840 --> 48:58.840
Yes, go ahead.

48:58.840 --> 49:02.840
Changing the order of items on the agenda.

49:02.840 --> 49:14.840
I'd like to propose that for B, the possible action on the property for sale, be made the last item under board action.

49:14.840 --> 49:18.840
So, switching B and C around.

49:18.840 --> 49:19.840
Okay.

49:20.840 --> 49:28.840
We will put that to a vote, so item B will become item C, item C will become item B.

49:28.840 --> 49:29.840
Is that what you're looking for?

49:29.840 --> 49:30.840
Yes?

49:30.840 --> 49:31.840
Yep, thank you.

49:31.840 --> 49:34.840
Anyone have any questions on that?

49:34.840 --> 49:35.840
Okay.

49:35.840 --> 49:37.840
Nathan, are you ready?

49:50.840 --> 50:11.840
Do I need to answer that before we vote?

50:11.840 --> 50:12.840
I can.

50:13.840 --> 50:23.840
To me, it seems like item C, the capital improvement from the 46 for the sports complex.

50:23.840 --> 50:37.840
The decision on that could play into our later decision on potential sale of West.

50:37.840 --> 50:42.840
Any other questions?

50:42.840 --> 50:47.840
Nathan, are we ready?

50:47.840 --> 50:48.840
Okay.

50:48.840 --> 50:50.840
With that, the voting device is on.

50:50.840 --> 51:02.840
Again, we're voting to move item B to item C.

51:02.840 --> 51:07.840
I have you to do a voice vote for the three remote.

51:07.840 --> 51:09.840
Angie Schreiber?

51:09.840 --> 51:12.840
Yes?

51:12.840 --> 51:17.840
Randy Myers?

51:17.840 --> 51:23.840
Danny Pirate?

51:23.840 --> 51:24.840
Okay.

51:24.840 --> 51:31.840
He's still absent.

51:31.840 --> 51:32.840
Okay.

51:32.840 --> 51:34.840
So that does pass.

51:34.840 --> 51:38.840
Item B will now become item C in the board action.

51:38.840 --> 51:43.840
Any other discussion on the consent agenda?

51:43.840 --> 51:46.840
Okay.

51:47.840 --> 51:48.840
Okay.

51:48.840 --> 51:50.840
With that voting device is on.

51:50.840 --> 51:57.840
I can vote on the consent agenda.

51:57.840 --> 52:00.840
And Deanna, if you could do a voice vote, please.

52:00.840 --> 52:01.840
Okay.

52:01.840 --> 52:05.840
Randy Myers?

52:05.840 --> 52:08.840
Angie Schreiber?

52:08.840 --> 52:11.840
Yes?

52:11.840 --> 52:12.840
Okay.

52:12.840 --> 52:17.840
Could they reveal the vote?

52:17.840 --> 52:18.840
Okay.

52:18.840 --> 52:20.840
And that passes eight to zero.

52:20.840 --> 52:26.840
We'll be moving on to let a fair a consideration to approve the community survey for clear arm mechanics.

52:26.840 --> 52:33.840
I will be looking for a motion.

52:33.840 --> 52:39.840
I move to approve the attached community survey for the clear arm mechanics.

52:39.840 --> 52:41.840
Would you like to speak to your motion?

52:42.840 --> 53:04.840
I had previously discussed or shared my feedback as just one board member that I felt it was very important to gather community feedback on an additional tax to the 19 municipalities relative to the total cost for the aquatic center.

53:05.840 --> 53:21.840
And I think that is one way to be very transparent with tax dollars and seeking community feedback because it's routinely been shared with us that this is a community gem.

53:21.840 --> 53:29.840
And so therefore receiving feedback from the community and those impacted by their tax dollars and additional tax I think is important.

53:29.840 --> 53:49.840
And also I made the motion because I'd like to kind of hand it off to the building and grounds committee to discuss kind of how they came up with the recommendation that came to us.

53:49.840 --> 53:57.840
Does anyone on the committee want to speak to that?

53:57.840 --> 54:01.840
On the subcommittee.

54:01.840 --> 54:08.840
And then brief discussion is at the board retreat almost.

54:08.840 --> 54:13.840
And that is determined that we'll be moving ahead with it.

54:13.840 --> 54:17.840
So then we can get community feedback.

54:18.840 --> 54:23.840
And of course, the direction that I are going to be able to have my left is.

54:23.840 --> 54:28.840
I'm going to get some of them as in the direction.

54:28.840 --> 54:30.840
So.

54:30.840 --> 54:31.840
Oh.

54:31.840 --> 54:41.840
Okay.

54:41.840 --> 54:51.840
What did the committees or subcommittees recommend in looking at the attachment relative to.

54:52.840 --> 54:59.840
I guess what is what is the recommendation coming to the full board to vote on.

54:59.840 --> 55:08.840
Within this attachment.

55:09.840 --> 55:11.840
Okay.

55:11.840 --> 55:21.840
I want to go ahead and be sure this survey and then if there is any comments and changing the questions you have awards or anything like that.

55:21.840 --> 55:23.840
Then I've gone through.

55:23.840 --> 55:25.840
Two different committees with it.

55:25.840 --> 55:28.840
And this was given at the board retreat as well.

55:28.840 --> 55:31.840
I'm going to discuss it.

55:32.840 --> 55:34.840
Anything.

55:34.840 --> 55:39.840
Change of the questions that they might like to.

55:39.840 --> 55:42.840
Just I guess not by the time.

55:42.840 --> 55:46.840
We're just looking for the point of providence to be able to issue the.

55:46.840 --> 55:49.840
Survey.

55:49.840 --> 55:53.840
And Jill, I think maybe a little bit of what you're asking.

55:53.840 --> 55:55.840
So the highlighted.

55:55.840 --> 55:57.840
And correct me if I'm wrong you guys.

55:57.840 --> 56:03.840
But the highlighted is stuff that we added to the document that was presented to us.

56:03.840 --> 56:05.840
At the building and grounds committee.

56:05.840 --> 56:09.840
The strike throughs are stuff that we removed.

56:09.840 --> 56:12.840
From the document that was handed to us at the committee.

56:12.840 --> 56:16.840
And I'm thinking the things that are highlighted and struck out.

56:16.840 --> 56:17.840
We did both.

56:17.840 --> 56:19.840
We added it and then we decided to change it.

56:19.840 --> 56:24.840
They were just kind of keeping up with us as we were spitballing stuff back and forth.

56:25.840 --> 56:26.840
Thank you.

56:26.840 --> 56:27.840
Thank you.

56:27.840 --> 56:33.840
I just want to clarify that this survey was not discussed at the subcommittee meeting.

56:33.840 --> 56:42.840
We talked about having a survey, but we did not look at the survey or discuss any of these questions at that meeting.

56:42.840 --> 56:45.840
I don't recall discussing it at the retreat.

56:45.840 --> 56:53.840
It was handed out to us, but we didn't make any changes or review it at all at the retreat.

56:53.840 --> 56:54.840
Yeah.

56:54.840 --> 56:58.840
This was handed out by the law discussable laws handed out at the retreat.

56:58.840 --> 56:59.840
So nobody had it.

56:59.840 --> 57:00.840
Yeah.

57:00.840 --> 57:06.840
And we were looking for input from above all those just the questions.

57:06.840 --> 57:08.840
We're not sure about this.

57:08.840 --> 57:10.840
So it's not like one person corrected this survey.

57:10.840 --> 57:17.840
Well, again, two people was told that we had to show some of the questions.

57:17.840 --> 57:22.840
Honestly, looking at this survey.

57:22.840 --> 57:28.840
I don't think this is ready to go to the community right now because there is just so much stuff.

57:28.840 --> 57:32.840
And there's so many things on here that need explanation.

57:32.840 --> 57:43.840
I talked to Michelle from the Donovan group at the board retreat and she stated that the survey should be put out at a third grade reading level.

57:43.840 --> 57:45.840
And this is not there.

57:45.840 --> 57:48.840
And I just think this is going to really muddy the waters.

57:48.840 --> 57:53.840
I don't think we're going to get honest feedback from this along with the timeframe.

57:53.840 --> 57:57.840
We want feedback before our next meeting.

57:57.840 --> 58:03.840
I would assume in order to have this information for our budget meeting.

58:03.840 --> 58:05.840
I would agree, Mike.

58:05.840 --> 58:07.840
I think it is too complicated.

58:07.840 --> 58:17.840
And I think by giving the option to answer it, not sure you're going to lose a lot of input from getting from that.

58:17.840 --> 58:26.840
Item alone.

58:26.840 --> 58:27.840
I do agree with that.

58:27.840 --> 58:31.840
And I think one of my suggestions on this is to eliminate.

58:31.840 --> 58:36.840
And there's one, two, three, four, five, six bullets on that one question for someone to select.

58:36.840 --> 58:45.840
I think it just needs to be two options to support your polls and give someone an option to put their own remarks on and then just compile like minded feedback.

58:45.840 --> 58:48.840
And then we can review it at that time.

58:48.840 --> 58:49.840
I agree, Danny.

58:49.840 --> 58:56.840
And I know that it feels like we're on a time crunch, but this information is relevant no matter when we get it back.

58:56.840 --> 59:06.840
So I agree.

59:06.840 --> 59:22.840
I think it's important to share too that when we pass a historic referendum, we did so by first creating a survey that we distributed to the community and that drove our decision making relative to what option we were going to ask the taxpayers to fund a referendum.

59:22.840 --> 59:24.840
And we had very good results.

59:24.840 --> 59:30.840
There was a lot of work that was put into it to ensure that it was well distributed to receive results.

59:30.840 --> 59:38.840
But we have established when we are asking something significant of the community relative to their taxes.

59:38.840 --> 59:50.840
We've at least established with our referendum that we put out the survey with the information.

59:50.840 --> 59:56.840
Can I speak to what we wanted to leave them not sure or need more information as an option on that?

59:56.840 --> 59:58.840
Kristin.

59:58.840 --> 01:00:00.840
Or did you say it at a different time?

01:00:00.840 --> 01:00:19.840
Yeah, so we talked about that at the Building Grounds Committee and I was in favor of putting it the unsure, especially if the survey requires an answer just because some people might have strong feelings about a subset of the questions, but not feel informed enough to.

01:00:19.840 --> 01:00:24.840
To vote or choose a choice on all of them.

01:00:24.840 --> 01:00:33.840
We did get rid of them on the ones where there was kind of a neutral or a middle ground question, but we left it in for the other ones.

01:00:33.840 --> 01:00:39.840
And I'll go back and I support what's been said here already.

01:00:39.840 --> 01:00:42.840
I do not think this is ready to go.

01:00:42.840 --> 01:00:48.840
I think getting information from the community would be valuable.

01:00:48.840 --> 01:01:02.840
I think it would be even more valuable if we had a solid year under our belts with updates to this fund 80 distribution.

01:01:02.840 --> 01:01:05.840
Now I'm losing my voice.

01:01:05.840 --> 01:01:12.840
But I think when we get to that point, then we could actually include a bullet on there that said, would you want to fund?

01:01:12.840 --> 01:01:20.840
We'd have the dollar amount for if you wanted to fund the whole thing, which I think would be really informative at that point.

01:01:20.840 --> 01:01:34.840
We might also know better from the foundation what they think they'd be able to support on an annual basis so we could take that into account.

01:01:34.840 --> 01:01:45.840
I disagree that the survey is not prepared in a way that I would feel good about.

01:01:45.840 --> 01:01:54.840
We also did in that previous meeting state that the current additional tax levy for the aquatic centers at 300,000 and increasing that to 1 million.

01:01:54.840 --> 01:02:09.840
So I also feel like we're not being very transparent in general with the community if we are as a nine member board in a month going to vote to potentially significantly increase the additional tax levy.

01:02:09.840 --> 01:02:19.840
With out seeking community feedback, I keep going through this and I'm like, this is a great rough draft.

01:02:19.840 --> 01:02:37.840
So I just struggled because we have heard a considerable amount about the impact of taxes from the referendum and also the city with the assessed values and not occurring for seven years, which had a big impact.

01:02:38.840 --> 01:02:50.840
So I just, I don't feel like it's very transparent if we do not seek input from the community to help drive our decision making for a community amenity.

01:02:50.840 --> 01:02:55.840
That said, this is not well prepared.

01:02:55.840 --> 01:02:57.840
I have a question for this going on.

01:02:57.840 --> 01:03:04.840
Can we approve like this as a draft and then that said, it's for those with the news email.

01:03:04.840 --> 01:03:08.840
Two, and then we send it out and see if everybody agrees right now.

01:03:08.840 --> 01:03:11.840
I have a simple phone.

01:03:11.840 --> 01:03:15.840
And things of that nature and then we could send it all from there.

01:03:15.840 --> 01:03:19.840
We would have to hold a special meeting to approve it, Angie.

01:03:19.840 --> 01:03:21.840
Okay.

01:03:22.840 --> 01:03:28.840
I guess not like our budget hearing is in my October to end of October.

01:03:28.840 --> 01:03:35.840
And then after that is when we put it on the budget and that will determine if taxes will be released or not.

01:03:35.840 --> 01:03:38.840
So we're kind of having a lot of time here.

01:03:38.840 --> 01:03:45.840
But in regards to doing this and giving that a feedback from the email, which I feel like is important to the transparency.

01:03:46.840 --> 01:04:06.840
Just to put it in perspective, what's been the current fund 80 levy for the past five years is $300,000 for the entire school district.

01:04:06.840 --> 01:04:16.840
Which worked out in 2025 to $17 for someone with a $100,000 property for the year.

01:04:16.840 --> 01:04:20.840
Not $17 a month, $17 for the year.

01:04:20.840 --> 01:04:24.840
That's three big Macs.

01:04:24.840 --> 01:04:30.840
I am not a fan of increasing that by some tremendous amount.

01:04:31.840 --> 01:04:34.840
Obviously we have to figure that out in October as a board.

01:04:34.840 --> 01:04:37.840
It doesn't really matter what I as an individual think.

01:04:37.840 --> 01:04:51.840
But I mean, even if the crazy notion of tripling that and going up to $900,000, that's nine big Macs in a year.

01:04:52.840 --> 01:05:01.840
It does not compare, you know, it's not a huge chunk of a person, a individual person's property tax.

01:05:01.840 --> 01:05:03.840
It's still a chunk.

01:05:03.840 --> 01:05:12.840
And number one is the property taxes to go up, especially with inflation and cost of living and the recent valuation of properties.

01:05:12.840 --> 01:05:13.840
So I get that.

01:05:13.840 --> 01:05:17.840
I also don't want my property taxes to go up.

01:05:17.840 --> 01:05:29.840
But this is small potatoes compared to what most of the size of your property taxes.

01:05:29.840 --> 01:05:35.840
I do want to just support that in the sense of I'm not a big fan of raising property taxes either.

01:05:35.840 --> 01:05:41.840
But I think when we hear the word property taxes in this community, everybody is alarmed when I get that.

01:05:41.840 --> 01:05:50.840
But I do think that we have to very clear that we're talking pennies on the dollar and the overall of your property taxes to support a community asset.

01:05:50.840 --> 01:05:54.840
So I just want to put that in perspective, not hundreds of dollars a month.

01:05:54.840 --> 01:05:58.840
We're talking pennies on the dollar when you look at it.

01:05:58.840 --> 01:06:02.840
If we were to do that.

01:06:02.840 --> 01:06:12.840
So if we are not ready to commit to this survey, we have to realize that we will be making this decision in October without that community input.

01:06:12.840 --> 01:06:20.840
And if we are wanting to continue with the survey, but we don't feel like it is ready at this time,

01:06:20.840 --> 01:06:24.840
I would be likely looking for a motion to refer back to committee.

01:06:24.840 --> 01:06:27.840
If anyone wants to do that.

01:06:27.840 --> 01:06:38.840
Second part again, if we're wanting to stick with this survey and just not as it is now, we will be looking to refer it back to committee.

01:06:38.840 --> 01:06:43.840
As it stands, we're voting yes or no to this survey.

01:06:43.840 --> 01:06:52.840
So I just want to put that out there as to where we are right now.

01:06:52.840 --> 01:06:57.840
Bringing it back to committee goes back to the time crunch.

01:06:57.840 --> 01:06:59.840
It does.

01:06:59.840 --> 01:07:09.840
But are we willing to send out what information are we really going to get from this survey that we're looking at right now?

01:07:09.840 --> 01:07:12.840
I don't think we're going to get clear information on this survey now.

01:07:12.840 --> 01:07:25.840
I think it would be worse if we sent this out than what we would be if we waited or sent it back and refined it.

01:07:25.840 --> 01:07:30.840
I like the motion then to refer this back to the building grounds committee.

01:07:30.840 --> 01:07:38.840
So now all discussion will be back to the motion and the floor of referring this to the building grounds committee.

01:07:38.840 --> 01:07:42.840
What's going on in this committee, Kristen?

01:07:42.840 --> 01:07:44.840
Building grounds.

01:07:44.840 --> 01:07:46.840
Building grounds.

01:07:46.840 --> 01:07:47.840
Okay.

01:07:47.840 --> 01:07:50.840
And so you can make a motion when there's a motion.

01:07:50.840 --> 01:07:53.840
Isn't there a motion hanging right now?

01:07:53.840 --> 01:07:55.840
This is amended.

01:07:55.840 --> 01:07:59.840
This is, I'm doing my best to get all these rules.

01:07:59.840 --> 01:08:05.840
But I'm going to the magic Google when we're referring back to committee.

01:08:06.840 --> 01:08:07.840
Oh, you're allowed?

01:08:07.840 --> 01:08:08.840
Yes.

01:08:08.840 --> 01:08:09.840
Yes.

01:08:09.840 --> 01:08:13.840
Then it will go back to committee if we vote no, then it goes back to the motion on the floor.

01:08:13.840 --> 01:08:16.840
But we do need a majority.

01:08:16.840 --> 01:08:20.840
I'm sorry, I'm doing my best.

01:08:20.840 --> 01:08:30.840
Danny, are you there?

01:08:30.840 --> 01:08:32.840
Anyone have any input?

01:08:32.840 --> 01:08:35.840
Are we okay to vote on referring this back to committee?

01:08:35.840 --> 01:08:40.840
Everyone is ready for that?

01:08:40.840 --> 01:08:42.840
Nathan, are you ready for that?

01:08:42.840 --> 01:08:43.840
All right.

01:08:43.840 --> 01:08:50.840
So we are currently voting on referring that survey of the products on our back to committee.

01:08:50.840 --> 01:08:53.840
You can vote now.

01:08:53.840 --> 01:08:56.840
Angie Schreiber?

01:08:56.840 --> 01:08:57.840
Yes.

01:08:57.840 --> 01:09:00.840
Randy Myers?

01:09:00.840 --> 01:09:01.840
No.

01:09:02.840 --> 01:09:06.840
Standing with us yet?

01:09:06.840 --> 01:09:07.840
No.

01:09:07.840 --> 01:09:08.840
Okay.

01:09:08.840 --> 01:09:12.840
We can move the vote.

01:09:12.840 --> 01:09:13.840
Okay.

01:09:13.840 --> 01:09:16.840
So that passes one, two, three, four, five, six to two.

01:09:16.840 --> 01:09:30.840
The survey will go back to the building and grounds committee for October and then be represented to the school to the board meeting after that.

01:09:30.840 --> 01:09:32.840
We will now move.

01:09:32.840 --> 01:09:40.840
I think this will change when it gets presented to the board after that, but I believe it will make the decision.

01:09:40.840 --> 01:09:42.840
Yes, it will.

01:09:42.840 --> 01:09:43.840
Okay.

01:09:43.840 --> 01:09:45.840
Thank you.

01:09:45.840 --> 01:09:46.840
Okay.

01:09:46.840 --> 01:09:57.840
So now we are going to item B, which is discussion and possible action on the use of long term capital improvement trust fund 46 for the construction of the sports complex to be located on district property.

01:09:57.840 --> 01:09:59.840
I'll be looking for a motion.

01:09:59.840 --> 01:10:27.840
I move to approve the use of $5 million from the long term capital improvement trust fund 46 for the construction of a sports complex to be located on district property.

01:10:27.840 --> 01:10:30.840
Jay, would you like to speak to your motion?

01:10:30.840 --> 01:10:31.840
Yes.

01:10:31.840 --> 01:10:35.840
So the ask was 4.5.

01:10:35.840 --> 01:10:37.840
My motion is for five.

01:10:37.840 --> 01:10:45.840
And the reason is because one thing for our school district for years and years and years.

01:10:45.840 --> 01:10:49.840
So this is not targeting any board administration.

01:10:49.840 --> 01:10:53.840
It's our pattern of behavior that I'm hoping we can shift.

01:10:54.840 --> 01:11:03.840
Is part of the gridiron club fundraising efforts have focused on establishing an endowment.

01:11:03.840 --> 01:11:08.840
By increasing the amount.

01:11:08.840 --> 01:11:21.840
It allows the gridiron club to use 500,000 of the monies that they would already be committing to raise towards establishing an endowment.

01:11:21.840 --> 01:11:30.840
Which would be utilized to maintain the turf investment when it needs to be replaced.

01:11:30.840 --> 01:11:36.840
So as a clear claim for point fund 46 cannot be used to create an endowment.

01:11:36.840 --> 01:11:46.840
So what we'll be asking a good island club to do with that is to raise the same amount of money that they have committed to.

01:11:46.840 --> 01:11:54.840
But since they would have been an extra 500,000 to use that to create their own endowment fund.

01:11:54.840 --> 01:11:55.840
Correct.

01:11:55.840 --> 01:11:59.840
Any other?

01:11:59.840 --> 01:12:00.840
Jay.

01:12:00.840 --> 01:12:01.840
Ms. Jerry here.

01:12:01.840 --> 01:12:02.840
Yes.

01:12:02.840 --> 01:12:07.840
Jay, are you able to speak on the creation of an endowment fund?

01:12:07.840 --> 01:12:13.840
If that's something that you guys are prepared to do and what that looks like.

01:12:13.840 --> 01:12:14.840
I'll try.

01:12:14.840 --> 01:12:15.840
Thank you.

01:12:15.840 --> 01:12:23.840
When you say the endowment fund, do you mean I'm not critical what you're asking me yet?

01:12:23.840 --> 01:12:32.840
So it's basically dollars that are put in investment and then in the future needs of the facility will be pulled from that fund.

01:12:32.840 --> 01:12:33.840
Okay.

01:12:33.840 --> 01:12:39.840
And our plan, our fundraising plan, there is an endowment entity.

01:12:39.840 --> 01:12:42.840
The money amount moves a little bit.

01:12:42.840 --> 01:12:44.840
It's a moving target.

01:12:44.840 --> 01:12:49.840
But the intent was not to use it for the construction now.

01:12:49.840 --> 01:13:00.840
It was to replace the turf field 10, 12, 4 channels in the future depending on use of when the turf will need to be replaced.

01:13:00.840 --> 01:13:08.840
And if you maybe come up with a number, we've discussed 500,000 invested at the credit union or wherever.

01:13:08.840 --> 01:13:14.840
They'd have it cool back over a 10, 12, 14 year window, grow to something.

01:13:14.840 --> 01:13:21.840
And then have that piece, that endowment, be it not just for general capital and construction day one.

01:13:21.840 --> 01:13:29.840
It's there, it'd be raised on day one and now, but it's there for that turf replacement.

01:13:29.840 --> 01:13:37.840
So by the motion that we have on the floor, by contributing an additional 500,000, you would have an endowment closer to a million dollars then.

01:13:37.840 --> 01:13:40.840
Based on rough planning.

01:13:40.840 --> 01:13:41.840
Sure.

01:13:41.840 --> 01:13:49.840
And I mean a little freedom to say, there's a whole bunch of antigo community and business people that are saying,

01:13:49.840 --> 01:13:52.840
we're going to act verbally.

01:13:52.840 --> 01:13:54.840
And that's where we are.

01:13:54.840 --> 01:14:01.840
And we're waiting for the board to make a decision before they basically follow through with their commitment.

01:14:01.840 --> 01:14:05.840
So we have some that have already written out checks.

01:14:05.840 --> 01:14:09.840
We have some that have signed a binding document.

01:14:09.840 --> 01:14:13.840
Some for the remainder of this year and another check for next year.

01:14:13.840 --> 01:14:24.840
And we have some that are, we're negotiating for in-kind type fundraising where, you know, maybe somebody's going to do it at a reduced cost.

01:14:24.840 --> 01:14:28.840
So they're going to eat some of the proceeds or some other margin.

01:14:28.840 --> 01:14:30.840
Then we have the verbal commitments.

01:14:30.840 --> 01:14:35.840
Then we have the, if the board does it, will help kind of commitments.

01:14:35.840 --> 01:14:41.840
So there's a whole series, but that floats that number then that you're asking me.

01:14:41.840 --> 01:14:47.840
But yes, some number set aside simply for the replacement of the turf.

01:14:47.840 --> 01:14:51.840
You know, and who knows what the turf's going to cost in 12 years.

01:14:51.840 --> 01:14:56.840
But at least we'll have it planned and you can invest in a lot of different things.

01:14:56.840 --> 01:14:58.840
I'll leave that up to the board.

01:14:58.840 --> 01:15:00.840
Does that help everybody?

01:15:00.840 --> 01:15:04.840
Do you have any other question while I'm up here?

01:15:04.840 --> 01:15:05.840
Okay.

01:15:05.840 --> 01:15:06.840
Thank you.

01:15:06.840 --> 01:15:09.840
We're going to wait until you sit down and then we'll call you back.

01:15:09.840 --> 01:15:16.840
You had to, sorry, go ahead.

01:15:16.840 --> 01:15:21.840
Mine is just going to clarify that that would be a million then in the roughly in the endowment.

01:15:21.840 --> 01:15:22.840
And he just answered that.

01:15:22.840 --> 01:15:26.840
So.

01:15:26.840 --> 01:15:30.840
Anyone have any other questions?

01:15:30.840 --> 01:15:33.840
Comments on the motion on the floor?

01:15:33.840 --> 01:15:35.840
I have some comments, yeah.

01:15:35.840 --> 01:15:38.840
I am really excited about the new stadium.

01:15:38.840 --> 01:15:40.840
I love the idea.

01:15:40.840 --> 01:15:43.840
I love that it serves multiple sports.

01:15:43.840 --> 01:15:47.840
I like that it's located close to the high school.

01:15:47.840 --> 01:15:51.840
This whole concept of sort of a one campus thing is new to me.

01:15:51.840 --> 01:15:56.840
But I think it makes a lot of sense to have that proximity.

01:15:56.840 --> 01:16:07.840
I'm really impressed that the community has been stepping forward and willing to contribute almost $4 million toward the project.

01:16:07.840 --> 01:16:10.840
I do have some negatives though.

01:16:10.840 --> 01:16:12.840
We have a lot going on.

01:16:12.840 --> 01:16:15.840
The school district does construction wise right now.

01:16:15.840 --> 01:16:19.840
In the middle school and the admin building coming up next.

01:16:19.840 --> 01:16:28.840
I wonder if doing this all at once will affect our choice of contractors or worry that maybe things will get lost in the shuffle.

01:16:28.840 --> 01:16:34.840
I also know there's a sense of urgency to making this decision right now.

01:16:34.840 --> 01:16:41.840
But it is my understanding that the proposed stadium has not yet gone through the city of Annigos plan commission,

01:16:41.840 --> 01:16:43.840
which may cause further delays.

01:16:43.840 --> 01:16:52.840
So even if we hurry up and approve this now, it doesn't necessarily mean that action will be able to be taken right away.

01:16:52.840 --> 01:16:57.840
And then finally, and this has been brought up in previous meetings and it was brought up here today.

01:16:57.840 --> 01:17:01.840
The fact that the current design doesn't include a track.

01:17:01.840 --> 01:17:10.840
At first, I kind of thought we could live with that because they were saying that the press box can work out of either side or whatever.

01:17:10.840 --> 01:17:13.840
And then maybe we could get lights or something like that.

01:17:13.840 --> 01:17:23.840
But the bottom line is this super quiet, amazing stadium sports complex will be with us for like 30 to 50 years.

01:17:23.840 --> 01:17:31.840
So it's not like track and field just has to live with something on the side for a year or two.

01:17:31.840 --> 01:17:36.840
They're going to be living with something on the side for 30 to 50 years.

01:17:36.840 --> 01:17:40.840
So I think a track has to be included.

01:17:40.840 --> 01:17:42.840
I think it has to be included.

01:17:50.840 --> 01:17:52.840
I want to speak to the track too.

01:17:52.840 --> 01:18:02.840
Gurdier in club has been gracious in their planning process in terms of they need a facility to play football on.

01:18:02.840 --> 01:18:10.840
And what they have proposed to us is a facility, a sports complex that allows for football, softball, soccer,

01:18:10.840 --> 01:18:14.840
literally baseball, marching band, fired class.

01:18:14.840 --> 01:18:26.840
With double-sided press box with a concession stand and with flushing toilets instead of party parties that track and field and soccer currently have.

01:18:26.840 --> 01:18:29.840
They didn't have to include any of that in their plan.

01:18:29.840 --> 01:18:31.840
They just need to feel the play out.

01:18:31.840 --> 01:18:39.840
So I appreciate the expansion and the consideration from Gurdier in club to really look at if we're looking at four community donations.

01:18:39.840 --> 01:18:43.840
How do we get the best bang for our buck with who can utilize it?

01:18:43.840 --> 01:18:56.840
Additionally, one big consideration that was presented from Gurdier in club to us at one point is that the track was recently resurfaced.

01:18:56.840 --> 01:18:58.840
And I talked to Jake.

01:18:58.840 --> 01:19:00.840
I know it was within my time on the board.

01:19:00.840 --> 01:19:02.840
I've been on the board for five years.

01:19:06.840 --> 01:19:08.840
2021.

01:19:08.840 --> 01:19:12.840
So it was resurfaced in 2021 for what was the price?

01:19:12.840 --> 01:19:18.840
$170,000.

01:19:18.840 --> 01:19:22.840
So the track is in very good condition.

01:19:22.840 --> 01:19:23.840
And I don't want to speak.

01:19:23.840 --> 01:19:28.840
I almost wonder if Gurdier club comes up to revisit this or not.

01:19:28.840 --> 01:19:30.840
But this has been discussed.

01:19:30.840 --> 01:19:35.840
I think it was discussed in our last meeting when they presented to the board as well.

01:19:35.840 --> 01:19:38.840
So it's not that track and field was overlooked or not considered.

01:19:38.840 --> 01:19:47.840
It was truly the investment that the district has put in of $170,000 to resurface the track in making that space really

01:19:47.840 --> 01:19:52.840
inclusive with what they're asking to bring to the table.

01:19:52.840 --> 01:20:01.840
That said, I would be in favor of encouraging building and grounds, maybe finance department to consider.

01:20:01.840 --> 01:20:10.840
So this is not a motion just within the discussion because I want track and field and soccer to be heard right now.

01:20:10.840 --> 01:20:12.840
That there's discussion about lighting.

01:20:12.840 --> 01:20:18.840
Maybe going on an agenda for committee moving forward because it's still an unaddressed need.

01:20:18.840 --> 01:20:24.840
Soccer would have that need met with lighting of the new sports complex.

01:20:24.840 --> 01:20:30.840
But that field itself used and that doesn't address the lighting issues or track and field.

01:20:30.840 --> 01:20:32.840
So that's just my suggestion.

01:20:32.840 --> 01:20:40.840
And we are doing a lot of work on our facilities long term facilities plan.

01:20:41.840 --> 01:20:50.840
So this is a time to really look at what our needs and how do we get there and how do we meet it because we've neglected our facilities for so long.

01:20:53.840 --> 01:20:59.840
Is that correct in the theme that if we have a track sample in Little League could not use the facility?

01:20:59.840 --> 01:21:00.840
Thank you for that.

01:21:00.840 --> 01:21:04.840
There's another consideration as well.

01:21:05.840 --> 01:21:08.840
So I'll follow in Little League could not use it.

01:21:08.840 --> 01:21:09.840
Correct.

01:21:09.840 --> 01:21:10.840
Correct.

01:21:10.840 --> 01:21:11.840
Yeah.

01:21:11.840 --> 01:21:14.840
Mike, why is that?

01:21:14.840 --> 01:21:18.840
Mike, can I come speak to that?

01:21:18.840 --> 01:21:20.840
I don't know the why.

01:21:20.840 --> 01:21:25.840
I can anticipate the why, but you guys did the work on this.

01:21:25.840 --> 01:21:26.840
Sure.

01:21:26.840 --> 01:21:33.840
And like as you've been talking, we've tried to make this as inclusive as we possibly count in cater to as many students and student athletes as possible.

01:21:34.840 --> 01:21:42.840
And with discussions with the point of beginnings, they explain that you need a bump out to accommodate softball or baseball on this facility.

01:21:42.840 --> 01:21:46.840
And that bump out exceeds what would be a typical track.

01:21:46.840 --> 01:22:00.840
So if the track is included, we would have to eliminate the current bump out that is there to accommodate for a softball sized facility that would be able to accommodate us hosting a WIA softball game there if need be.

01:22:01.840 --> 01:22:06.840
So that was the reason why we went that route versus the track knowing that the track was in good condition.

01:22:06.840 --> 01:22:07.840
It was there.

01:22:07.840 --> 01:22:09.840
It also allows for additional flexibility.

01:22:09.840 --> 01:22:15.840
I know, I'm sorry, I forgot her name, the track and field coach pointed out that congestion is a problem.

01:22:15.840 --> 01:22:22.840
And we wanted to also have that not be a problem at this facility either because again, you'll have football, soccer and track and field going on at the same time.

01:22:22.840 --> 01:22:24.840
So we didn't want that congestion there as well.

01:22:24.840 --> 01:22:29.840
So we figured this would allow for the most flexibility with this project and get the most being for a buck.

01:22:30.840 --> 01:22:32.840
I don't know what a bump out is.

01:22:32.840 --> 01:22:34.840
Oh, I'm sorry.

01:22:34.840 --> 01:22:38.840
The bump out is the additional space outside of the field itself.

01:22:38.840 --> 01:22:47.840
So along the sidelines, there's additional space that is also turf that exceeds what would be where normally a track is.

01:22:47.840 --> 01:22:48.840
Gotcha.

01:22:48.840 --> 01:22:49.840
I get it now.

01:22:49.840 --> 01:22:50.840
Thank you.

01:22:50.840 --> 01:22:51.840
You're welcome.

01:22:51.840 --> 01:22:53.840
Any other questions?

01:22:53.840 --> 01:22:55.840
Thanks, guys.

01:22:56.840 --> 01:22:59.840
Jake, I have a question for you.

01:22:59.840 --> 01:23:01.840
Can you hear me?

01:23:01.840 --> 01:23:03.840
I'm more importantly saying you understand me.

01:23:03.840 --> 01:23:04.840
This is Randy Mowers.

01:23:04.840 --> 01:23:06.840
Yeah, go ahead.

01:23:07.840 --> 01:23:09.840
Thank you.

01:23:09.840 --> 01:23:10.840
Thank you.

01:23:10.840 --> 01:23:11.840
Thank you.

01:23:11.840 --> 01:23:12.840
Thank you.

01:23:12.840 --> 01:23:13.840
Thank you.

01:23:13.840 --> 01:23:14.840
Thank you.

01:23:14.840 --> 01:23:15.840
Thank you.

01:23:15.840 --> 01:23:16.840
Thank you.

01:23:16.840 --> 01:23:17.840
Thank you.

01:23:17.840 --> 01:23:18.840
Thank you.

01:23:18.840 --> 01:23:19.840
Thank you.

01:23:19.840 --> 01:23:20.840
Thank you.

01:23:20.840 --> 01:23:21.840
Thank you.

01:23:21.840 --> 01:23:22.840
Thank you.

01:23:22.840 --> 01:23:23.840
Thank you.

01:23:23.840 --> 01:23:24.840
Thank you.

01:23:24.840 --> 01:23:25.840
Thank you.

01:23:25.840 --> 01:23:26.840
Thank you.

01:23:26.840 --> 01:23:27.840
Thank you.

01:23:27.840 --> 01:23:28.840
Thank you.

01:23:28.840 --> 01:23:29.840
Thank you.

01:23:29.840 --> 01:23:30.840
Thank you.

01:23:30.840 --> 01:23:31.840
Thank you.

01:23:32.840 --> 01:23:53.840
Can you address how the new sports complex would assist in the seating for the current track in the soccer?

01:23:53.840 --> 01:23:57.840
So when we look at the renderings and what the plan is for the new facility.

01:23:58.840 --> 01:24:03.840
It's a run sided stadium, but the press box sits on top of there.

01:24:03.840 --> 01:24:06.840
So there's, you can make that a dual side press box.

01:24:06.840 --> 01:24:09.840
So you can service fields out of both sides of it.

01:24:09.840 --> 01:24:14.840
So that press box will be utilized to run events out of both sides very easily.

01:24:14.840 --> 01:24:16.840
Point of beginning says that they've done this before.

01:24:16.840 --> 01:24:26.840
There is a space behind those bleachers between that and the track that we could either add bleachers or there is the place over on the west side.

01:24:26.840 --> 01:24:30.840
By the, what most people know is the list of field parking lot.

01:24:30.840 --> 01:24:33.840
There is a area there that we could add bleachers to.

01:24:33.840 --> 01:24:37.840
And I do have ideas for how we could get some reasonable bleachers to do that.

01:24:37.840 --> 01:24:46.840
Also, there is a sound system that actually showed up today that we're going to get installed to the football field this week as the plan.

01:24:46.840 --> 01:24:48.840
Biring anything unforeseen.

01:24:49.840 --> 01:24:59.840
And that sound system would then be repurposed likely at list of field to update that sound system because we know that that's an aging system that has had problems over the time.

01:24:59.840 --> 01:25:02.840
We did just recently update that scoreboard as well.

01:25:02.840 --> 01:25:10.840
I think that was, I think it was maybe the year after we did the track, maybe 2002 or 2022.

01:25:10.840 --> 01:25:13.840
So we've made some investment there.

01:25:13.840 --> 01:25:15.840
There's a lot of life left there.

01:25:15.840 --> 01:25:19.840
I certainly understand the thought of, you know, why not the track there?

01:25:19.840 --> 01:25:21.840
How is it going to blend in?

01:25:21.840 --> 01:25:33.840
But I think that there's been a lot of consideration and thought and reason to consider that having those right next to each other back to back really is better than trying to overlay them.

01:25:33.840 --> 01:25:40.840
Especially when you look at event scheduling, but also just flexibility.

01:25:41.840 --> 01:25:49.840
And down the road, what that could mean for possible growth or just different events.

01:25:49.840 --> 01:25:55.840
Having that valuable space that we already paid for with little investment to keep it up in the next.

01:25:55.840 --> 01:25:58.840
I'm going to say eight to ten years.

01:25:58.840 --> 01:26:09.840
You know, that would be a big value just to kind of walk away from because I don't know how you would maintain two tracks once that current track kind of hits that age where it needs to be restructured.

01:26:09.840 --> 01:26:17.840
I don't know how you justify spending that type of money to maintain two tracks.

01:26:17.840 --> 01:26:19.840
I have another question in this one.

01:26:19.840 --> 01:26:20.840
I'm sorry.

01:26:20.840 --> 01:26:21.840
It's really putting you on the spot.

01:26:21.840 --> 01:26:23.840
So if you don't have an answer, that is completely fine.

01:26:23.840 --> 01:26:27.840
How much additional cost would you think it is to add lights to listal field?

01:26:27.840 --> 01:26:29.840
Why we were doing this project?

01:26:29.840 --> 01:26:36.840
I'm going to guess 300,000.

01:26:36.840 --> 01:26:38.840
That's a guess.

01:26:39.840 --> 01:26:40.840
Don't hold me to it.

01:26:40.840 --> 01:26:41.840
I won't.

01:26:41.840 --> 01:26:44.840
But I think it's a reasonable thing.

01:26:44.840 --> 01:26:46.840
Not millions of dollars.

01:26:46.840 --> 01:26:47.840
Correct.

01:26:47.840 --> 01:26:49.840
And I can certainly get numbers on that.

01:26:49.840 --> 01:26:51.840
Thank you.

01:26:51.840 --> 01:26:53.840
Anybody have anything else for Jake?

01:26:53.840 --> 01:26:55.840
Jake, you might not know this either.

01:26:55.840 --> 01:26:57.840
So if you don't know, let's find.

01:26:57.840 --> 01:27:06.840
Would it cost us more money to fix school filled stadium in its current state than what it would be for us to invest in a new complex?

01:27:06.840 --> 01:27:11.840
And if so, do you have a rough estimate as to how much?

01:27:11.840 --> 01:27:16.840
That's a really loaded question, Danny.

01:27:16.840 --> 01:27:33.840
I'm trying to gauge where if we don't do something and we end up putting more money into that space, now we're going to spend tax dollars on something that's going to cost more than something new.

01:27:33.840 --> 01:27:34.840
That's what I'm getting at.

01:27:34.840 --> 01:27:36.840
I'm trying to put that in perspective.

01:27:36.840 --> 01:27:40.840
I could only help put some more money in there.

01:27:40.840 --> 01:27:45.840
The Good Iron Club has said that they will not contribute any more money to school filled stadium.

01:27:45.840 --> 01:27:46.840
Really?

01:27:46.840 --> 01:27:56.840
Can you come to the mic and tell us how much money the Good Iron Club has given to the district through the football field in recent years?

01:27:57.840 --> 01:28:06.840
Excuse me, I don't have exact numbers, but I know there was private funds raised for the current concessions building team room and restroom.

01:28:06.840 --> 01:28:09.840
That was up to $300,000 alone.

01:28:09.840 --> 01:28:13.840
That was privately raised by the Good Iron Club and donated to the Good Iron Club.

01:28:13.840 --> 01:28:19.840
Additional crowning and drainage work to the current field along with replacing the goal post was also done.

01:28:19.840 --> 01:28:22.840
Jake, I don't know if you know the number that I do not.

01:28:22.840 --> 01:28:26.840
That is a significant amount, though, recounting and drainage.

01:28:26.840 --> 01:28:29.840
It was $250 to $300.

01:28:29.840 --> 01:28:30.840
Right.

01:28:30.840 --> 01:28:38.840
We have also purchased the two bleachers, additionally, that were brought in to school filled stadium, the two nicer bleachers that are there.

01:28:38.840 --> 01:28:40.840
Those were $40,000.

01:28:40.840 --> 01:28:42.840
Again, all good iron money.

01:28:42.840 --> 01:28:43.840
Total.

01:28:43.840 --> 01:28:44.840
Total.

01:28:44.840 --> 01:28:47.840
Between the two of them, with both of them, correct.

01:28:48.840 --> 01:28:50.840
Those bleachers I will add to.

01:28:50.840 --> 01:28:53.840
We are donating if we do get the approval of the new facility.

01:28:53.840 --> 01:29:00.840
The Good Iron Club would be moving those to listal field for additional seating over at listal, which is significant amount of seating for that field.

01:29:00.840 --> 01:29:01.840
Additional seating for that field.

01:29:01.840 --> 01:29:06.840
One of my missing.

01:29:06.840 --> 01:29:09.840
The caps.

01:29:09.840 --> 01:29:13.840
For this, I don't know about that one.

01:29:13.840 --> 01:29:14.840
Sorry.

01:29:14.840 --> 01:29:16.840
Jake can speak to that one.

01:29:16.840 --> 01:29:17.840
I'm sorry.

01:29:17.840 --> 01:29:20.840
I'm having a present for a few months, so I'm trying to catch up on all the expenses.

01:29:20.840 --> 01:29:23.840
Those two new bleachers sections.

01:29:23.840 --> 01:29:27.840
The Good Iron Club said that they would be final, thus taking and using as we need.

01:29:27.840 --> 01:29:32.840
They're not elevated, meaning that they're made more for a baseball setting, if you will.

01:29:32.840 --> 01:29:37.840
When you have a track field, typically you have elevated seats.

01:29:37.840 --> 01:29:58.840
The hope is that we could find a set of bleachers that may be available and utilize the aluminum caps that are on the current concrete bleachers to modify those so that we have nice elevated aluminum bleachers that meet code at listal field.

01:29:59.840 --> 01:30:08.840
I didn't really answer your question, but that's $600,000 that they've contributed that we would be losing on that alone.

01:30:08.840 --> 01:30:16.840
I don't know if Jake can speak more to whether it be more cost effective to upgrade school field stadium than to build a new stadium.

01:30:16.840 --> 01:30:25.840
Well, I think when you're asking for donations, I mean, there's been pretty thorough and I don't want to speak for them, but I know that they've told me this a number of times.

01:30:25.840 --> 01:30:29.840
They're not interested in raising money to stick into that facility anymore.

01:30:29.840 --> 01:30:34.840
So, and then you have to make it apples to apples.

01:30:34.840 --> 01:30:42.840
Yeah, it'd be the same cost, except for you wouldn't have the luxuries that you would have a one campus theory.

01:30:42.840 --> 01:30:48.840
I'm not sure you could do it band-aid fix, but I think that's been kicked over enough.

01:30:48.840 --> 01:30:53.840
And I'll just remind the board too, and the community as well.

01:30:53.840 --> 01:31:00.840
We had a board retreat last week and that centered for facilities centered on centralizing our facilities.

01:31:00.840 --> 01:31:05.840
I'm sorry, I feel like I'm either talking to one side of the room or the other just based on where this is.

01:31:05.840 --> 01:31:17.840
I'm sorry, but centralizing our facilities, which was in support by consensus of the sports complex at the high school and funding.

01:31:17.840 --> 01:31:37.840
The sports complex is something that might not be an ideal time to be talking about, but it's a need just because of the state of what our current stadium situation is.

01:31:37.840 --> 01:31:43.840
I've had a lot of questions about costing things as we've been talking about these things.

01:31:43.840 --> 01:31:51.840
And overall, I'm in support of this, but just like Randy had some questions, reserves about the financials.

01:31:51.840 --> 01:32:06.840
At our board retreat, we talked about the one campus idea and having everything essentially over here at some point in the near future.

01:32:07.840 --> 01:32:18.840
So with that being said, I would like to make an amendment to Jill's motion that is on the floor currently.

01:32:18.840 --> 01:32:22.840
And again, I'll try to talk slow so that you get the office.

01:32:22.840 --> 01:32:28.840
But I'm going to leave everything that Jill said there in the motion.

01:32:29.840 --> 01:32:38.840
And I would like to add the aquatic center to the long term capital improvement plan.

01:32:38.840 --> 01:33:04.840
And dedicate your earmark $250,000 to necessary facility repairs.

01:33:05.840 --> 01:33:14.840
And the addition of the aquatic center to the capital improvement plan and dedicate $250,000 to facility repairs.

01:33:14.840 --> 01:33:27.840
Okay, all discussion will be the amended amendment to the motion.

01:33:28.840 --> 01:33:31.840
Any discussion?

01:33:31.840 --> 01:33:37.840
We are a small meeting, so we do not need a second for any amendments.

01:33:37.840 --> 01:33:38.840
Thank you.

01:33:38.840 --> 01:33:43.840
Any comments or concerns?

01:33:43.840 --> 01:33:49.840
Can we read the motion in full so I make sure that I'm speaking to the correct thing, like the beginning to end?

01:33:49.840 --> 01:33:51.840
Sure, Diana, can you please read the motion?

01:33:51.840 --> 01:33:54.840
Okay.

01:33:55.840 --> 01:34:06.840
So I move to approve to use the long term capital improvement trust fund 46 for construction of sports complex to be located at the district property.

01:34:06.840 --> 01:34:14.840
And add the aquatic center long term capital improvement plan.

01:34:14.840 --> 01:34:17.840
Wait a minute.

01:34:17.840 --> 01:34:21.840
Dedicates to the facility repairs.

01:34:21.840 --> 01:34:22.840
Read that again.

01:34:22.840 --> 01:34:25.840
I think you skipped a section.

01:34:25.840 --> 01:34:32.840
That's where move to improve on the use of long term capital improvement.

01:34:32.840 --> 01:34:34.840
So are we saying 5 million?

01:34:34.840 --> 01:34:46.840
So, yeah, the total motion will be moved to approve the use of $5,000 long term capital improvement trust fund 46 for the construction of sports complex to be located on the district property.

01:34:46.840 --> 01:34:53.840
And the addition of the aquatic center to the capital improvement plan and dedicate $250,000 to facility repairs.

01:34:53.840 --> 01:34:54.840
That's right.

01:34:54.840 --> 01:34:55.840
That's $250,000.

01:34:55.840 --> 01:34:56.840
Correct.

01:34:56.840 --> 01:34:57.840
Okay.

01:34:57.840 --> 01:35:00.840
I will read that one more time.

01:35:00.840 --> 01:35:09.840
And you've tried to have the use of $5 million long term capital improvement trust fund 46 for the construction of sports complex to be located on district property.

01:35:10.840 --> 01:35:17.840
And the addition of the aquatic center to the capital improvement plan and dedicate $250,000 to facility repairs.

01:35:17.840 --> 01:35:21.840
Thank you.

01:35:21.840 --> 01:35:27.840
Mike, can you, can you, you know, speak to your motion?

01:35:27.840 --> 01:35:28.840
Sure.

01:35:28.840 --> 01:35:35.840
So, I wanted to add that to it is the aquatic center has been a topic of discussion for several months.

01:35:35.840 --> 01:35:55.840
And I think if we're going to move forward with this new addition, because we have another failing complex, I think it's important to include a plan to maintain what we currently have and bring it up to current operational standards.

01:35:55.840 --> 01:36:00.840
And we've been talking about this for since April.

01:36:00.840 --> 01:36:03.840
And I think we just need to put it in motion.

01:36:03.840 --> 01:36:06.840
I think we can do both as a community.

01:36:06.840 --> 01:36:11.840
And that's why I have decided to amend this.

01:36:11.840 --> 01:36:19.840
And we have a list of 250 k worth of maintenance.

01:36:19.840 --> 01:36:25.840
Things at the pool.

01:36:25.840 --> 01:36:28.840
Jake, I'm going to refer that to you because I don't know.

01:36:28.840 --> 01:36:38.840
I know that there is at least 130 was a number that I remember from a prior meeting that was talked about for a while this summer.

01:36:38.840 --> 01:36:46.840
But I don't know exactly what all is out there. And I know we've been working on some things with some of the HVAC and things over there. So.

01:36:46.840 --> 01:36:49.840
Yeah.

01:36:49.840 --> 01:36:53.840
As it hasn't sat, I guess.

01:36:53.840 --> 01:36:58.840
I'm trying to think back when when the board made the motion that we were to no longer.

01:36:58.840 --> 01:37:04.840
Take care of that building is a maintenance department. That number was about 125.

01:37:04.840 --> 01:37:08.840
Since that I mean my staff have not been in there.

01:37:08.840 --> 01:37:15.840
The last that we were in there was to maintain the pool water temperature as directed.

01:37:15.840 --> 01:37:20.840
But there's a number of other things that I suspect are problematic there.

01:37:20.840 --> 01:37:24.840
I don't know the state. I don't know who's done what.

01:37:24.840 --> 01:37:28.840
Because it wasn't me and it wasn't my department. So.

01:37:28.840 --> 01:37:32.840
I don't really know how to answer that because I don't know what we're going to.

01:37:32.840 --> 01:37:35.840
What the condition is.

01:37:35.840 --> 01:37:57.840
I don't know how to answer that. Sorry.

01:37:57.840 --> 01:38:05.840
It would be anything on the current plan. Yes. It can only be used for anything on the approved capital improvement plan.

01:38:05.840 --> 01:38:13.840
Are you asking Jake if he has thoughts of with discussion on what's in our capital improvement plan. Does Jake have plans to utilize.

01:38:13.840 --> 01:38:18.840
Fund forty six dollars for any of those needs. Is that what you may be asking.

01:38:18.840 --> 01:38:20.840
Yes.

01:38:20.840 --> 01:38:23.840
The court center is not.

01:38:23.840 --> 01:38:27.840
Go home to a capital improvement plan.

01:38:27.840 --> 01:38:32.840
So I would be able to. That's part of the funds to do spent on it.

01:38:32.840 --> 01:38:36.840
That's part of the motion Angie is to add it to the capital improvement plan.

01:38:37.840 --> 01:38:48.840
Am I correct in so if we earmark the two hundred and fifty thousand.

01:38:48.840 --> 01:38:50.840
In forty six.

01:38:50.840 --> 01:38:53.840
For the aquatic center.

01:38:53.840 --> 01:38:58.840
If it ends up being right now we need a hundred and twenty five.

01:38:58.840 --> 01:39:04.840
That hundred and twenty five other hundred and twenty five doesn't just disappear that can be used in the future for the aquatic center.

01:39:04.840 --> 01:39:13.840
Or is that time sensitive. I don't think I mean I think it's not so it could be if we don't need it all up front. It's not like it's going to waste.

01:39:13.840 --> 01:39:21.840
It's going to be a future question for repairs. Okay.

01:39:21.840 --> 01:39:27.840
My struggle. I don't I don't disagree with the idea. I would ideally prefer.

01:39:27.840 --> 01:39:30.840
That to be a separate agenda item.

01:39:30.840 --> 01:39:35.840
Brought to a committee and then to the full board would be my preference.

01:39:35.840 --> 01:39:41.840
I'm not opposed to the content of your of your amendment in terms of.

01:39:41.840 --> 01:39:46.840
Adding fund forty six or the aquatic center to fund forty six.

01:39:46.840 --> 01:39:52.840
I want to just clarify can we add a fund eighty program to fund forty six.

01:39:52.840 --> 01:39:54.840
So I have a couple of things going through my right now.

01:39:54.840 --> 01:39:57.840
Depay to answer that question. Depay to let us know we can't.

01:39:57.840 --> 01:40:00.840
I don't know if we are able to do this because it was not.

01:40:00.840 --> 01:40:03.840
I'm not sure.

01:40:03.840 --> 01:40:07.840
To have an extra pool.

01:40:07.840 --> 01:40:13.840
Or fund forty six is where I that's where my hang up is to be super clear.

01:40:13.840 --> 01:40:19.840
My second part of it is.

01:40:19.840 --> 01:40:24.840
The budget numbers have been discussed for six months.

01:40:24.840 --> 01:40:31.840
Maybe tying down what the repair needs are would be helpful since.

01:40:31.840 --> 01:40:37.840
That was part of our discussion in the survey is we need like it wasn't ready.

01:40:37.840 --> 01:40:42.840
And numbers that continue to be disagreed upon that.

01:40:42.840 --> 01:40:44.840
If we could know for sure.

01:40:44.840 --> 01:40:47.840
And then maybe we need to adjust. I don't know.

01:40:47.840 --> 01:40:50.840
Maybe it's three hundred thousand. Jake just said he hasn't been in there.

01:40:50.840 --> 01:40:51.840
I don't know.

01:40:51.840 --> 01:40:53.840
Just like making sure that we're not just throwing out a number.

01:40:53.840 --> 01:40:56.840
We know the one thirty. I thought it was one twenty five.

01:40:56.840 --> 01:40:58.840
You know we know that.

01:40:58.840 --> 01:41:04.840
But just being intentional with the dollars to ensure that we're addressing what we need.

01:41:04.840 --> 01:41:11.840
I'm not able to ask do this if this is a legal emotion.

01:41:11.840 --> 01:41:20.840
I will. I'm suspicious that maybe it needed to be agendized just specifically to add it to the capital improvement plan.

01:41:20.840 --> 01:41:30.840
But I will call him right now. Thank you.

01:41:30.840 --> 01:41:40.840
And I can request that from Brian with the YMCA that we get some information on that and then work together with Jake and bring it to the subcommittee.

01:41:41.840 --> 01:41:52.840
I'm going to call for a five minute recess until we can get an answer from Davis before we go any further.

01:41:52.840 --> 01:42:04.840
Okay. Thank you. So we are coming back into session at eight oh eight.

01:42:05.840 --> 01:42:11.840
And legal team in order to add a item to your capital improvement plan.

01:42:11.840 --> 01:42:14.840
It does have to be a specific agenda item.

01:42:14.840 --> 01:42:19.840
So we are not able to honor the amendment on the floor at this time.

01:42:19.840 --> 01:42:22.840
So we will revert that to the original amendment.

01:42:22.840 --> 01:42:24.840
And I'm going to approve the notice of five more matters.

01:42:24.840 --> 01:42:33.840
The long term capital improvement trust fine forty six for construction of a sports complex to be located on district property.

01:42:33.840 --> 01:42:38.840
So all discussion will go back to the motion on the floor.

01:42:38.840 --> 01:42:55.840
I am speaking indirectly to the main motion on the floor to offer consideration for either building and grounds or finance to consider adding that to their upcoming committee meetings.

01:42:56.840 --> 01:42:59.840
So Jean you are back to the original motion on the floor.

01:42:59.840 --> 01:43:06.840
I know to approve the use of five million dollars long term capital improvement trust one forty six for the construction of a sports complex to be located on district property.

01:43:06.840 --> 01:43:15.840
As I don't ask you capital improvement plan to be an individual action item on the agenda.

01:43:16.840 --> 01:43:18.840
I'm going back to the original motion.

01:43:18.840 --> 01:43:21.840
I just want to make more of a statement where I'm at.

01:43:21.840 --> 01:43:28.840
I absolutely agree that we should not continue sticking funds into school field stadium.

01:43:28.840 --> 01:43:30.840
It's beyond band aids.

01:43:30.840 --> 01:43:34.840
I agree that we need a forward looking plan.

01:43:34.840 --> 01:43:42.840
I am a sports anyone that knows me or my family.

01:43:42.840 --> 01:43:44.840
We are very sports oriented.

01:43:44.840 --> 01:43:50.840
So I absolutely recognize the beauty of the plan that is before us.

01:43:50.840 --> 01:43:53.840
My concern at this point.

01:43:53.840 --> 01:43:58.840
Is once again and I've said this before so it's not going to be any huge surprise.

01:43:58.840 --> 01:44:03.840
Most of us at this table learned about this in August.

01:44:03.840 --> 01:44:07.840
It's been in the works for eighteen months is what I've been hearing.

01:44:07.840 --> 01:44:13.840
And we're as being asked to make a four point five to five million dollar decision.

01:44:13.840 --> 01:44:16.840
In a month so it can start in a month.

01:44:16.840 --> 01:44:20.840
That's a really quick turnaround for four and a half million dollars.

01:44:20.840 --> 01:44:26.840
I'm not saying we need to drag it out for a year but I haven't heard all the answers.

01:44:26.840 --> 01:44:36.840
I mean to answers to some of my questions what's going to keep this from becoming in ten fifteen twenty years another scenario like we have with the aquatic center.

01:44:37.840 --> 01:44:38.840
Well.

01:44:38.840 --> 01:44:42.840
All of a sudden it gets lost in five ten years who's in charge of what.

01:44:42.840 --> 01:44:45.840
It's on our capo improvement plan.

01:44:45.840 --> 01:44:47.840
Right.

01:44:47.840 --> 01:44:51.840
But this is there's an endowment for who's in charge of the endowment.

01:44:51.840 --> 01:44:53.840
The gradator club.

01:44:53.840 --> 01:44:54.840
Okay.

01:44:54.840 --> 01:44:55.840
What have to be.

01:44:55.840 --> 01:44:56.840
Correct.

01:44:56.840 --> 01:44:57.840
My understanding.

01:44:57.840 --> 01:45:05.840
So we're throwing five hundred thousand dollars or roughly a million dollars whichever into the endowment for them to use for the.

01:45:05.840 --> 01:45:10.840
Field which I get and I agree that an endowment fund is a fabulous idea.

01:45:10.840 --> 01:45:14.840
But again there's nothing in place.

01:45:14.840 --> 01:45:19.840
Paperwork wise or contracts or agreements or there's not even a.

01:45:19.840 --> 01:45:22.840
Whisper of those things coming about.

01:45:22.840 --> 01:45:24.840
I mean I clarify that.

01:45:24.840 --> 01:45:25.840
Yeah.

01:45:25.840 --> 01:45:31.840
You know you go back to all the all the aquatic center paperwork that we've been through and.

01:45:31.840 --> 01:45:36.840
You know this is how things were supposed to happen while that disappeared as people.

01:45:36.840 --> 01:45:39.840
That were involved disappeared.

01:45:39.840 --> 01:45:46.840
You know the paperwork got forgotten and this changed a little bit this year and this changed a little bit this year.

01:45:46.840 --> 01:45:51.840
But we didn't have a million dollars for those.

01:45:51.840 --> 01:45:55.840
People to a million dollars of school district money.

01:45:55.840 --> 01:45:57.840
So those people to manage.

01:45:58.840 --> 01:45:59.840
It's just going to be fun.

01:45:59.840 --> 01:46:02.840
It's not any school district money because you can't.

01:46:02.840 --> 01:46:08.840
It came into the four point five is required to build create the field.

01:46:08.840 --> 01:46:09.840
So it's five hundred.

01:46:09.840 --> 01:46:10.840
Yep.

01:46:10.840 --> 01:46:11.840
Thank you for that one.

01:46:11.840 --> 01:46:12.840
But I just I don't know.

01:46:12.840 --> 01:46:15.840
I feel like there are a lot of.

01:46:15.840 --> 01:46:21.840
Things that haven't been addressed in the partnership between the grid art club and the school district.

01:46:21.840 --> 01:46:23.840
Have you reached out to the grid art club.

01:46:24.840 --> 01:46:25.840
I had had time.

01:46:25.840 --> 01:46:29.840
I've been researching this and trying to.

01:46:29.840 --> 01:46:34.840
Again I would love to have them at a building and grounds committee but we.

01:46:34.840 --> 01:46:38.840
Haven't had the availability or the time because the last one we had to focus on.

01:46:38.840 --> 01:46:40.840
You know or finance or something.

01:46:40.840 --> 01:46:42.840
I feel like they.

01:46:42.840 --> 01:46:43.840
You know I mean.

01:46:43.840 --> 01:46:47.840
So I think part of the struggle is that the aquatic center is a business.

01:46:47.840 --> 01:46:48.840
Right.

01:46:49.840 --> 01:46:54.840
So those numbers and expenses are significantly different than a facility and especially an outdoor facility.

01:46:54.840 --> 01:46:57.840
So I'm hearing you entirely.

01:46:57.840 --> 01:46:59.840
In terms of numbers and needs.

01:46:59.840 --> 01:47:01.840
That's going to look much differently.

01:47:01.840 --> 01:47:02.840
Oh absolutely.

01:47:02.840 --> 01:47:04.840
And I'm not even so.

01:47:04.840 --> 01:47:05.840
It's.

01:47:05.840 --> 01:47:06.840
I don't know.

01:47:06.840 --> 01:47:08.840
I'm not realizing this very well.

01:47:08.840 --> 01:47:11.840
It's not so much.

01:47:11.840 --> 01:47:16.840
The current or you know we're all at the table right now I get that but what.

01:47:16.840 --> 01:47:18.840
Things are going to change in ten years.

01:47:18.840 --> 01:47:19.840
You know a lot of us aren't.

01:47:19.840 --> 01:47:21.840
Most of us probably aren't going to be sitting here.

01:47:21.840 --> 01:47:23.840
The grid iron club is going to turn over.

01:47:23.840 --> 01:47:24.840
There needs to be.

01:47:24.840 --> 01:47:28.840
Is there a plan for that portion of this complex.

01:47:28.840 --> 01:47:30.840
More than just building it.

01:47:30.840 --> 01:47:34.840
What's the long term handling between the school district and the grid.

01:47:34.840 --> 01:47:37.840
Or are they just.

01:47:37.840 --> 01:47:41.840
Building and stepping away and just doing the endowment fund when we need turf.

01:47:41.840 --> 01:47:45.840
I mean those are all you know things that.

01:47:45.840 --> 01:47:51.840
I think need to be visited with an entire board not just me as a person.

01:47:51.840 --> 01:47:58.840
Having the endowment is part of their plan and it's always been about the plan and it was in the plan that really.

01:47:58.840 --> 01:48:05.840
Presented to both the building and grounds committee the finance committee and to the full board.

01:48:05.840 --> 01:48:07.840
I don't expect.

01:48:07.840 --> 01:48:15.840
It's your responsibility to get caught up in the things that have been on the table.

01:48:15.840 --> 01:48:20.840
I've been at every table that they have publicly talked to.

01:48:20.840 --> 01:48:24.840
I didn't know this was even a thing until August.

01:48:24.840 --> 01:48:31.840
And I don't think I'm the only one on the board that was not aware of this even being in the works.

01:48:31.840 --> 01:48:34.840
So how could I ask prior to August.

01:48:34.840 --> 01:48:36.840
If I didn't know it existed.

01:48:36.840 --> 01:48:40.840
Well I was asking have you reached out to the good iron club since August.

01:48:40.840 --> 01:48:44.840
So I guess you bring up fair points and so.

01:48:44.840 --> 01:48:51.840
I'm wondering about considerations regarding.

01:48:51.840 --> 01:48:54.840
Bussing expenses.

01:48:54.840 --> 01:48:56.840
And a facility.

01:48:56.840 --> 01:49:01.840
For the upcoming season then if this does not pass.

01:49:02.840 --> 01:49:05.840
And that's I said I'm not saying I don't want this to pass.

01:49:05.840 --> 01:49:09.840
I recognize the value and the beauty in.

01:49:09.840 --> 01:49:12.840
We would be lucky to have something like this.

01:49:12.840 --> 01:49:15.840
I just think there needs to be things.

01:49:15.840 --> 01:49:19.840
I earned out first or put into place.

01:49:19.840 --> 01:49:21.840
To try and.

01:49:21.840 --> 01:49:23.840
For the future.

01:49:23.840 --> 01:49:25.840
To prevent what we're going through right now.

01:49:25.840 --> 01:49:27.840
I know it's the same.

01:49:27.840 --> 01:49:29.840
Go ahead.

01:49:29.840 --> 01:49:31.840
Sorry.

01:49:31.840 --> 01:49:35.840
Can I just come to the bottom and address and.

01:49:35.840 --> 01:49:39.840
I guess the title of the stainless steel pastor failed tonight.

01:49:39.840 --> 01:49:41.840
No forgiving.

01:49:41.840 --> 01:49:42.840
You know.

01:49:42.840 --> 01:49:44.840
Additional donations.

01:49:44.840 --> 01:49:46.840
But.

01:49:46.840 --> 01:49:48.840
Our teams for next year.

01:49:48.840 --> 01:49:50.840
If it's if it doesn't pass tonight.

01:49:50.840 --> 01:49:52.840
He's welcome to speak to us.

01:49:52.840 --> 01:49:54.840
But I don't think anyone.

01:49:54.840 --> 01:49:55.840
Questions that.

01:49:55.840 --> 01:49:57.840
I mean I understand.

01:49:57.840 --> 01:49:59.840
What that need is and why.

01:49:59.840 --> 01:50:03.840
And I'm not saying do or don't or I am or I'm not going to vote for this.

01:50:03.840 --> 01:50:06.840
I'm just saying these are things that.

01:50:06.840 --> 01:50:09.840
We should have.

01:50:09.840 --> 01:50:11.840
Addressed prior to tonight.

01:50:11.840 --> 01:50:13.840
As a group.

01:50:13.840 --> 01:50:17.840
I think we just need to.

01:50:17.840 --> 01:50:19.840
Keep it moving forward.

01:50:20.840 --> 01:50:24.840
We can make the timelines and sort of kids next year and will feel the plan.

01:50:24.840 --> 01:50:25.840
I think.

01:50:25.840 --> 01:50:28.840
We can do those.

01:50:28.840 --> 01:50:32.840
We can just keep moving forward with it.

01:50:32.840 --> 01:50:33.840
I would agree.

01:50:33.840 --> 01:50:37.840
Angie that the commitment gets that ball rolling to get all the paperwork.

01:50:37.840 --> 01:50:40.840
And where we're headed because we don't even have bids yet.

01:50:40.840 --> 01:50:43.840
This is just an idea of how much it's going to cost.

01:50:43.840 --> 01:50:46.840
So there's a lot of work that needs to be done.

01:50:47.840 --> 01:50:50.840
And also in reference to your.

01:50:50.840 --> 01:50:54.840
The issue of where we are with other facilities at this time.

01:50:54.840 --> 01:50:57.840
This is a little bit different because this is a.

01:50:57.840 --> 01:50:58.840
With.

01:50:58.840 --> 01:50:59.840
I don't want it always to be a.

01:50:59.840 --> 01:51:03.840
Aquatic center versus a school field skating sports complex.

01:51:03.840 --> 01:51:07.840
But with the aquatic center the whole problem came in is how the finding.

01:51:07.840 --> 01:51:09.840
The fine time versus find 80.

01:51:09.840 --> 01:51:13.840
This is that is not a situation with the sports complex.

01:51:14.840 --> 01:51:16.840
It's something that will come into play.

01:51:16.840 --> 01:51:17.840
So it is a little.

01:51:17.840 --> 01:51:19.840
It is a completely different.

01:51:19.840 --> 01:51:20.840
I understand.

01:51:20.840 --> 01:51:24.840
But we've got missed over the years.

01:51:24.840 --> 01:51:28.840
That's I'm not saying it's going to be the same level or the same issue.

01:51:28.840 --> 01:51:33.840
But if I think we need to put safeguards in place.

01:51:33.840 --> 01:51:36.840
So the issue of it being missed for all of these.

01:51:36.840 --> 01:51:38.840
Doesn't happen again.

01:51:38.840 --> 01:51:40.840
That's kind of I guess what my point is.

01:51:40.840 --> 01:51:41.840
Complete.

01:51:41.840 --> 01:51:42.840
Yeah.

01:51:42.840 --> 01:51:44.840
Definitely is a valid concern.

01:51:44.840 --> 01:51:51.840
I also think we've learned from that and we know what.

01:51:51.840 --> 01:51:58.840
We have to have in place.

01:51:58.840 --> 01:51:59.840
Jake.

01:51:59.840 --> 01:52:00.840
Maybe you can answer this.

01:52:00.840 --> 01:52:03.840
Maybe the grid on your club can answer this but has.

01:52:03.840 --> 01:52:07.840
The city of any goal been approached about this.

01:52:08.840 --> 01:52:17.840
Complex and do they have any questions concerns on how it's going to affect the rest of the

01:52:17.840 --> 01:52:20.840
town traffic flow of things of that nature.

01:52:20.840 --> 01:52:21.840
Yeah.

01:52:21.840 --> 01:52:24.840
So just to give a little bit of history.

01:52:24.840 --> 01:52:29.840
Back in September of 24.

01:52:29.840 --> 01:52:36.840
This is first brought to the board where the board that committee gave me permission to

01:52:36.840 --> 01:52:41.840
point a beginning and blue design group to begin this process with the grid iron club.

01:52:41.840 --> 01:52:48.840
And the district agreed to pay for that upfront work to be done in the amount of $5,500.

01:52:48.840 --> 01:52:52.840
So it's been going on for over two years now.

01:52:52.840 --> 01:52:59.840
Point of beginning is the civil engineer that does the design.

01:52:59.840 --> 01:53:02.840
They did a referendum work.

01:53:02.840 --> 01:53:06.840
So it's something that was identified out of their net that out of point of beginning and

01:53:06.840 --> 01:53:10.840
blue designs initial facilities assessment.

01:53:10.840 --> 01:53:12.840
Back pre referendum.

01:53:12.840 --> 01:53:16.840
They identified that we had a number of problems with school field stadium and that we need

01:53:16.840 --> 01:53:20.840
to find a solution and that's what prompted that agreement to start two years ago to find the

01:53:20.840 --> 01:53:22.840
solution.

01:53:22.840 --> 01:53:26.840
They have been in constant contact with the city with all of our projects.

01:53:26.840 --> 01:53:31.840
I don't know if they've submitted any drawings to the city.

01:53:31.840 --> 01:53:38.840
For this as far as like for approval for construction would likely be known because obviously we

01:53:38.840 --> 01:53:42.840
don't have the funds or the approval from the school board to do so.

01:53:42.840 --> 01:53:47.840
But if you look at 10th Avenue and the road construction project that they did that was

01:53:47.840 --> 01:53:52.840
submitted to the DOT probably 18 months ago.

01:53:52.840 --> 01:53:57.840
They have provisions made and they had the preliminary drawings from point of beginning to make sure

01:53:57.840 --> 01:54:01.840
that they could accommodate what the future plans may be.

01:54:01.840 --> 01:54:08.840
Now not all of those are put in but like crosswalk location if you notice they changed a little

01:54:08.840 --> 01:54:12.840
bit in the parking lot because they never really aligned with anything to begin with.

01:54:12.840 --> 01:54:17.840
So we figured why don't we align them with where the future entrance would likely be.

01:54:17.840 --> 01:54:22.840
So we went through those steps with the city and they obviously reflected that in their

01:54:22.840 --> 01:54:25.840
DOT approved plans when they did that road construction project.

01:54:25.840 --> 01:54:28.840
So kind of a yes kind of a no one.

01:54:28.840 --> 01:54:30.840
That was that answer.

01:54:30.840 --> 01:54:32.840
Okay.

01:54:32.840 --> 01:54:36.840
Thanks, Jake.

01:54:45.840 --> 01:54:48.840
I'll offer up an amended motion.

01:54:49.840 --> 01:54:51.840
Okay.

01:54:51.840 --> 01:54:56.840
I'll keep all the verbiage that's there.

01:54:56.840 --> 01:55:11.840
But I will say pending inclusion of a track in the stadium.

01:55:11.840 --> 01:55:15.840
Maybe pending isn't the right word.

01:55:16.840 --> 01:55:17.840
There you go.

01:55:17.840 --> 01:55:18.840
Thank you.

01:55:18.840 --> 01:55:21.840
It's ancient upon including a track in the stadium.

01:55:21.840 --> 01:55:28.840
This was about the same thing as what we just went through this like and the polar.

01:55:28.840 --> 01:55:32.840
Because this would be changing the actual design of the complex.

01:55:32.840 --> 01:55:34.840
So I think this is different.

01:55:34.840 --> 01:55:35.840
I'll give you that.

01:55:35.840 --> 01:55:37.840
It's not repairing the current track.

01:55:37.840 --> 01:55:44.840
It's changing the plan.

01:55:44.840 --> 01:55:52.840
So our discussion will be about the amendment on the floor, which is as reads.

01:55:52.840 --> 01:55:58.840
An actual problem on the use of $5 million long-term capital improvement trusts fund

01:55:58.840 --> 01:56:02.840
fund 46 for the construction of a sports complex to be located on district property

01:56:02.840 --> 01:56:05.840
contingent upon inclusion of a track in the complex.

01:56:05.840 --> 01:56:07.840
Jean, is that right?

01:56:07.840 --> 01:56:08.840
It's good.

01:56:08.840 --> 01:56:09.840
Thanks.

01:56:09.840 --> 01:56:11.840
Did you want to speak to your motion?

01:56:11.840 --> 01:56:12.840
No.

01:56:13.840 --> 01:56:15.840
Does anyone have any?

01:56:15.840 --> 01:56:17.840
Ms. Danny.

01:56:17.840 --> 01:56:19.840
So, okay.

01:56:19.840 --> 01:56:21.840
May I only feel that, okay.

01:56:21.840 --> 01:56:29.840
If we do that, do we now eliminate softball being able to be utilized on that site?

01:56:29.840 --> 01:56:30.840
Yeah.

01:56:30.840 --> 01:56:31.840
Softball baseball.

01:56:31.840 --> 01:56:32.840
Apparently.

01:56:32.840 --> 01:56:33.840
Yeah.

01:56:33.840 --> 01:56:34.840
Okay.

01:56:34.840 --> 01:56:38.840
So we would essentially be trading one sports use for another.

01:56:39.840 --> 01:56:40.840
Yeah.

01:56:40.840 --> 01:56:47.840
Well, in addition, we did, as Jake shared in 2021, we paid 170,000 to resurface the track.

01:56:47.840 --> 01:56:52.840
So the track is in very good condition with a life expectancy of 10 to 12 years.

01:56:52.840 --> 01:56:54.840
10 to 15 years, I think.

01:56:54.840 --> 01:56:55.840
10, 12.

01:56:55.840 --> 01:57:02.840
I would recommend that it would be around 2035 before we have to do anything with that track.

01:57:03.840 --> 01:57:09.440
So another question that I have on this is that I thought that when it was brought forward

01:57:09.440 --> 01:57:14.120
to us that the whole purpose of it, and you go, doing this separate from all the other

01:57:14.120 --> 01:57:18.480
surrounding districts, was because we could then have simultaneous sports like that taking

01:57:18.480 --> 01:57:23.280
place instead of having scheduling conflicts, not being able to utilize the track, and over

01:57:23.280 --> 01:57:27.840
the field, I'm just trying to bring that up, is that I do remember that at the retreat.

01:57:27.840 --> 01:57:32.160
But that was said, that it was intentionally designed to be different, so that we could

01:57:32.160 --> 01:57:34.560
have multiple schedules happening at once.

01:57:34.560 --> 01:57:40.360
That's correct, Danny.

01:57:40.360 --> 01:57:46.960
I will not vote in favor of the amendment simply because I think given the work that's

01:57:46.960 --> 01:57:52.920
been done, the intentionality behind it, and the inclusion in a lot of groups with the

01:57:52.920 --> 01:57:57.200
current layout, I just, there's a lot of logistical things that come to mind for me in

01:57:57.200 --> 01:58:06.120
terms of time crunch, but then needing a full new design created.

01:58:06.120 --> 01:58:11.040
What does that look like, and then space and size and all the things, and does that impact

01:58:11.040 --> 01:58:19.720
the parking lots, the concession locations, like a lot of questions I eliminate.

01:58:19.720 --> 01:58:20.880
So that's a concern.

01:58:20.880 --> 01:58:28.160
The second is, our track is in really good shape, and there's discussion and talks about

01:58:28.160 --> 01:58:33.080
how do we meet the needs that the track currently doesn't fulfill, such as lighting, such as

01:58:33.080 --> 01:58:37.880
sound, such as bleachers, which has already been included in discussion, and I'll also

01:58:37.880 --> 01:58:43.800
say that Gritter and Club mention willingness to even donate their $40,000 investment in

01:58:43.800 --> 01:58:47.840
bleachers, and I'm not cutting on the hockey association.

01:58:47.840 --> 01:58:52.440
Blue bleachers are awful, and they're replacing them, but they're trying to sell the really

01:58:52.440 --> 01:58:54.040
bad old ones.

01:58:54.040 --> 01:59:00.360
So Gritter and has $40,000 of brand new ones that they'd like to try and repurpose, so

01:59:00.360 --> 01:59:05.960
my point is there's discussion of how do we make this all work together, and I go back

01:59:05.960 --> 01:59:17.520
to recommendation to building on grounds committee for things like lighting, sound bleachers that

01:59:17.520 --> 01:59:21.640
just seems to make the most sense, given what the condition is of the track and field

01:59:21.640 --> 01:59:25.480
currently, the location and all the planning that's been done to this point.

01:59:25.480 --> 01:59:29.880
Go ahead, Malcolm.

01:59:29.880 --> 01:59:34.840
This might, I'm sure, be an overly simplistic question, make it sound like it's just an

01:59:34.840 --> 01:59:41.880
easy thing to do, but is there any way without it being a huge, I mean, because we haven't

01:59:41.880 --> 01:59:48.680
gone to, you know, no one's been contracted to build this, we don't have plans officially,

01:59:48.680 --> 01:59:59.360
any of that, of maybe looking at moving the entrance concession stand, that area of it

01:59:59.360 --> 02:00:07.160
kind of to the other side, and have it more in between the track in the complex, and you

02:00:07.160 --> 02:00:12.800
know, we're already incorporating the press box, and that stuff into the track, is there

02:00:12.800 --> 02:00:19.480
a way of making it feel like it's truly one big complex, as we're going to designers

02:00:19.480 --> 02:00:25.560
and stuff like that, and then we would have inclusion, and we could vote on the lights

02:00:25.560 --> 02:00:30.760
and stuff, but the sound would be there, the bleachers would be there, we would vote to

02:00:30.760 --> 02:00:34.120
get them their lights that they need, because obviously they would need their own lights,

02:00:35.120 --> 02:00:41.400
I don't know, to me that just feels like maybe a way of including a sport that feels excluded.

02:00:41.400 --> 02:00:46.520
I think that's a great middle ground on that to discuss for that.

02:00:46.520 --> 02:00:54.040
Jerry, is that a possibility with the way that it's laid out right now, and spacing?

02:00:54.040 --> 02:01:01.120
I'm briefly put, there wouldn't probably be a little extra design cost of time, but

02:01:01.120 --> 02:01:07.920
it can certainly be done, and it's not even a bad idea, but I would also like to apologize,

02:01:07.920 --> 02:01:14.480
it's probably my fault, in March of 25, the board gave me permission, because I stood

02:01:14.480 --> 02:01:21.720
right here, to take this on, and not thinking that there was a change in the board, and some

02:01:21.720 --> 02:01:27.120
people didn't know, and I just didn't pop in my head to have an update until now, because

02:01:27.120 --> 02:01:30.120
there were more commitments now, dollar commitments.

02:01:30.120 --> 02:01:31.120
Absolutely.

02:01:31.120 --> 02:01:32.120
So I am sorry.

02:01:32.120 --> 02:01:36.720
No, and I'm not trying to make it sound like I don't appreciate what you all have done,

02:01:36.720 --> 02:01:38.600
because I really very much do.

02:01:38.600 --> 02:01:42.880
I just want to be respectfully responsible, because I didn't think of it, and I should

02:01:42.880 --> 02:01:43.880
have.

02:01:43.880 --> 02:01:44.880
That's okay.

02:01:44.880 --> 02:01:45.880
Thank you.

02:01:45.880 --> 02:01:55.000
I just want to add, with taking out the softball slash little league option, our district current

02:01:55.000 --> 02:02:05.200
is not only a softball field, correct, and currently little league minors in the softball

02:02:05.200 --> 02:02:11.280
team share a field, so often when they're younger, or young little league or so our softball

02:02:11.280 --> 02:02:18.720
players can play, which I totally agree with, but having that extra field would allow for

02:02:18.720 --> 02:02:27.120
that overlap to be sad, and also in the summer, I would add more than two or three

02:02:27.120 --> 02:02:33.280
biggest at economic weekends, our long-host, our softball tournaments, and our little league

02:02:33.280 --> 02:02:40.320
series tournaments, so to have one more field to do so, and a possible source of revenue

02:02:40.320 --> 02:02:46.240
for the district would be another thing to consider.

02:02:46.240 --> 02:02:53.120
I also did reach out to Tom Schofield to ask how many softball games had to be rescheduled

02:02:53.120 --> 02:03:00.120
due to weather, but they did change their, I don't know, call the reporting system, so

02:03:00.120 --> 02:03:03.420
that those numbers aren't as readily available.

02:03:03.420 --> 02:03:08.120
I know some of you in the audience that likely has that answer, but to respect that this

02:03:08.120 --> 02:03:15.440
is an agenda item in a full board meeting, point is I know that field conditions for softball

02:03:15.440 --> 02:03:21.960
are impacted, especially at the location and start times.

02:03:21.960 --> 02:03:27.840
Are we done with being able to do amendments?

02:03:27.840 --> 02:03:34.840
We can amend, since the first one was not truly a minute, we can amend one more time.

02:03:34.840 --> 02:03:42.400
I'd like to make an amendment, propose an amendment, again, keeping everything in the

02:03:42.440 --> 02:03:49.920
original recommended action with the $5 million verbiage in place, and then going off with

02:03:49.920 --> 02:03:56.920
jeans, I'd like to make it contingent upon inclusion of the existing track facility in

02:04:03.440 --> 02:04:06.280
the layout and design.

02:04:06.280 --> 02:04:08.480
Can you say that one more time, I'm sorry.

02:04:08.480 --> 02:04:09.480
Yeah, let me think.

02:04:09.480 --> 02:04:11.080
Just one second, please.

02:04:11.080 --> 02:04:19.040
So contingent upon inclusion of, you want contingent?

02:04:19.040 --> 02:04:29.000
Yeah, right, I moved to approve the use of $5 million long term capital improvement trust

02:04:29.000 --> 02:04:36.280
fund 46 for the construction of a sports complex to be located on district property.

02:04:36.360 --> 02:04:50.800
So contingent upon the inclusion of the existing track complex in the new sports complex design.

02:04:50.800 --> 02:05:01.280
Is that track field, contingent on the inclusion of the entrance of the sports complex, including

02:05:01.280 --> 02:05:15.000
the listal field, inclusion of the sports complex entrance, including listal field.

02:05:15.000 --> 02:05:23.840
So if I may, I move to approve the use of $5 million long term capital improvement trust

02:05:23.840 --> 02:05:29.040
fund, fund 46 for the construction of a sports complex to be located on district property.

02:05:29.040 --> 02:05:33.680
And then on the inclusion of the sports complex entrance, including listal field.

02:05:39.120 --> 02:05:44.520
So all discussion will be on that motion on the floor, a contingent on inclusion of the

02:05:44.520 --> 02:05:48.120
sports complex entrance, including listal field.

02:05:48.120 --> 02:05:49.800
And that is doable.

02:05:49.800 --> 02:05:53.240
And then how do we do the votes with you got two amendments hanging in?

02:05:53.600 --> 02:05:58.000
If this passes, then that would be the current amendment.

02:05:58.000 --> 02:06:01.560
And then we would have to vote to make this amendment the motion in the floor.

02:06:05.480 --> 02:06:06.240
Correct.

02:06:06.240 --> 02:06:11.960
So if that's nice, then this would be the current amendment if it votes no, and it goes back to your amendment.

02:06:14.120 --> 02:06:15.640
That doesn't sound right.

02:06:15.640 --> 02:06:17.280
It is.

02:06:17.280 --> 02:06:18.400
It's amendment of an amendment.

02:06:19.280 --> 02:06:23.160
So that votes yes, amending my amendment.

02:06:23.160 --> 02:06:25.680
She is ending your amendment.

02:06:25.680 --> 02:06:26.440
Get out.

02:06:30.040 --> 02:06:33.280
So I thought, well, it's yes, then it becomes the amendment on the floor.

02:06:33.280 --> 02:06:39.880
If it's a no, then it goes back to the contingent upon inclusion of a track in the complex.

02:06:39.880 --> 02:06:41.440
Okay.

02:06:41.440 --> 02:06:43.400
What are you asking for?

02:06:43.400 --> 02:06:54.200
I basically want the entrance to be flipped and listal to be in the complex field of the space.

02:06:56.360 --> 02:07:04.200
Okay, so if I'm playing this out, timelines, and if I'm playing this out in the timelines of moving forward and

02:07:04.200 --> 02:07:11.040
then relying on the company, women and free the name of it, to redesign and look at and

02:07:11.040 --> 02:07:14.880
come out like, I don't disagree with that.

02:07:14.880 --> 02:07:25.160
I just want to make sure that that doesn't actually intrude on the time frame of getting the work started this fall because it would be contingent on.

02:07:25.160 --> 02:07:26.640
That's why I asked about contingent.

02:07:32.080 --> 02:07:38.320
My point is how do we make them both work without necessarily inadvertently saying no to one.

02:07:38.680 --> 02:07:42.240
Right, but like, I don't disagree with what you're wanting.

02:07:42.240 --> 02:07:47.240
I'm just, I'm worried that we're inadvertently.

02:07:47.240 --> 02:07:55.680
Somebody who was on the work contingent, just say to include, we can't amendment more.

02:07:55.680 --> 02:07:59.440
So it's, I don't know how to say anything like that, okay.

02:07:59.440 --> 02:08:03.080
So Kristen repeat what Melissa's is on.

02:08:03.080 --> 02:08:12.760
So the current motion amendment on the floor would be to, I will move to approve on the use of $5 million long-term capital improvement trust fund,

02:08:12.760 --> 02:08:17.040
$1.46 for the construction of the sports complex to be cooler.

02:08:17.040 --> 02:08:24.480
Complex, we're located on district property contingent on the inclusion of the sports complex entrance, including listal field.

02:08:24.480 --> 02:08:29.720
Okay, so that is more than that entrance, so it's an mid-point so that both areas can utilize that.

02:08:30.600 --> 02:08:35.440
Okay, so I'm just going to be honest, I don't think that should impact amendment that, because at this point,

02:08:35.440 --> 02:08:41.120
the initial commitment that we're being asked to make is to playground and get it functional.

02:08:41.120 --> 02:08:47.040
And then everything else after that is the luxury amenities that are coming forward that we can discuss at a later date, correct?

02:08:47.040 --> 02:08:48.520
Well, yes.

02:08:48.520 --> 02:08:51.000
So I could stop right there.

02:08:51.000 --> 02:08:58.760
We have a very nice storage building there, so like in my head, trying to figure out like there's good intentions here.

02:09:00.720 --> 02:09:05.320
But even if it passes, we could still break down and get started on the field.

02:09:05.320 --> 02:09:07.920
Yes, that's my point is that we can stay away.

02:09:07.920 --> 02:09:12.520
We can make this happen, but it doesn't have to slow us down because the field is going to be the field.

02:09:12.520 --> 02:09:14.520
And that's what we need first, right?

02:09:14.520 --> 02:09:18.120
That's how I'm understanding that.

02:09:18.120 --> 02:09:19.920
That's how I'm understanding it.

02:09:19.920 --> 02:09:21.920
Jerry, can you?

02:09:21.920 --> 02:09:26.920
Sorry to get up for the millionth time tonight.

02:09:26.920 --> 02:09:28.920
I'm getting stiff sitting back here anyway.

02:09:28.920 --> 02:09:35.720
I called point of beginning just to give my heads up and I'm not knowing what we were going to talk about tonight.

02:09:35.720 --> 02:09:44.320
But they're prepared to make little changes, you know, cosmetic changes, and they'll start as soon as we tell them.

02:09:44.320 --> 02:09:51.920
So from my professional opinion, if you want to do that, all of a sudden you'll call it your plaza area,

02:09:51.920 --> 02:09:55.720
your entrance to both facilities just got nicer.

02:09:55.720 --> 02:09:57.320
You can have two ticket booths.

02:09:57.320 --> 02:10:01.320
You know, you might even need two ticket booths for a large event in a Reiner game

02:10:01.320 --> 02:10:04.920
where students go in one and they'll go in the other or something like that.

02:10:04.920 --> 02:10:09.520
But all it means is move it over and there was only one negative that Ray mentioned is

02:10:09.520 --> 02:10:15.320
that's where that store area is and that would just have to be moved.

02:10:15.320 --> 02:10:19.320
So I think you can do it.

02:10:19.320 --> 02:10:23.920
You know, and whether it's, they're going to have to redesign it and get approval anyway.

02:10:23.920 --> 02:10:28.920
So, you know, you can certainly have input on the redesign if that's what you want.

02:10:28.920 --> 02:10:29.920
Yeah.

02:10:29.920 --> 02:10:30.920
All right.

02:10:30.920 --> 02:10:31.920
Thank you.

02:10:37.920 --> 02:10:43.920
So I mean, I'm in favor of this because I do think that when you do sit down and you look at this,

02:10:43.920 --> 02:10:47.920
the poor in this are two separate things as much as it is hard to distinguish

02:10:47.920 --> 02:10:50.920
and the community may not see that at this time.

02:10:50.920 --> 02:10:51.920
I'm just going on a record.

02:10:51.920 --> 02:10:53.920
These are two separate things.

02:10:53.920 --> 02:10:58.920
And I am going to support this because I do and I feel like everybody up here wants to support this

02:10:58.920 --> 02:11:02.920
because I do feel that we're at a point where if we make a decision, it's either going to contribute

02:11:02.920 --> 02:11:05.920
to the growth and success of this community or the decline.

02:11:05.920 --> 02:11:08.920
And I am advocating for both.

02:11:08.920 --> 02:11:14.920
I think if we are a one campus mindset, I am going to continue to vote in support of the pool

02:11:14.920 --> 02:11:19.920
and because I want the pool to be a non-negotiable with this complex out there

02:11:19.920 --> 02:11:20.920
and I think we can do both.

02:11:20.920 --> 02:11:24.920
And I think the community, we need to rally behind both concepts.

02:11:29.920 --> 02:11:30.920
With that.

02:11:30.920 --> 02:11:32.920
I was going to call the question.

02:11:32.920 --> 02:11:33.920
Okay.

02:11:33.920 --> 02:11:34.920
With that being said,

02:11:34.920 --> 02:11:40.920
little later on, the current motion on the floor, I would have to approve the use of five million dollars

02:11:40.920 --> 02:11:44.920
in the regulatory campaign for the trust fund and 46 for the instruction of the sports

02:11:44.920 --> 02:11:46.920
complex to be located in a district property.

02:11:46.920 --> 02:11:52.920
Containment and inclusion of the sports complex entrance including the still field.

02:11:52.920 --> 02:11:58.920
So we're just going to link this, the amendment.

02:11:58.920 --> 02:12:00.920
If you vote yes, this becomes a amendment.

02:12:00.920 --> 02:12:07.920
If you vote no, it refers back to change in the amount of contingent upon inclusion of a track in the complex.

02:12:07.920 --> 02:12:09.920
Are we all ready to vote?

02:12:10.920 --> 02:12:11.920
Okay.

02:12:11.920 --> 02:12:12.920
We are ready.

02:12:17.920 --> 02:12:18.920
Randy Myers.

02:12:22.920 --> 02:12:23.920
Angie Shriver.

02:12:23.920 --> 02:12:24.920
Yes.

02:12:27.920 --> 02:12:28.920
Danny with us yet.

02:12:28.920 --> 02:12:29.920
No.

02:12:30.920 --> 02:12:31.920
Okay.

02:12:31.920 --> 02:12:32.920
All right.

02:12:32.920 --> 02:12:36.920
We will reveal the results of the vote please.

02:12:37.920 --> 02:12:39.920
So it passes.

02:12:39.920 --> 02:12:40.920
Seven to nine.

02:12:40.920 --> 02:12:44.920
So the current amendment and the full bill is.

02:12:44.920 --> 02:12:52.920
I want to approve the use of five million dollars in the regulatory campaign for the trust fund and 46 for the construction of the sports complex to be located in a district property.

02:12:52.920 --> 02:12:57.920
Containment and inclusion of the sports, all the sports complex entrance including the still field.

02:12:57.920 --> 02:13:02.920
So we are now going to make this the motion on the floor.

02:13:03.920 --> 02:13:06.920
Are we all ready to vote?

02:13:06.920 --> 02:13:08.920
Voting to make it the motion.

02:13:08.920 --> 02:13:09.920
Yes, it's currently.

02:13:09.920 --> 02:13:12.920
We just voted to make it the amendment.

02:13:12.920 --> 02:13:15.920
Now we're going to make it be the motion.

02:13:15.920 --> 02:13:16.920
Go back up the letter.

02:13:16.920 --> 02:13:17.920
Yes.

02:13:17.920 --> 02:13:22.920
And if it fails, it goes back to the original motion.

02:13:22.920 --> 02:13:23.920
Correct.

02:13:23.920 --> 02:13:25.920
Any other.

02:13:25.920 --> 02:13:26.920
Okay.

02:13:26.920 --> 02:13:30.920
We'll be ready to vote then.

02:13:31.920 --> 02:13:33.920
Angie Schreiber.

02:13:33.920 --> 02:13:34.920
Pass.

02:13:34.920 --> 02:13:37.920
Randy Myers.

02:13:37.920 --> 02:13:40.920
Yes.

02:13:40.920 --> 02:13:41.920
Okay.

02:13:41.920 --> 02:13:44.920
We could please reveal the vote.

02:13:44.920 --> 02:13:49.920
All right.

02:13:49.920 --> 02:13:50.920
That passes.

02:13:50.920 --> 02:13:52.920
Seven to one.

02:13:52.920 --> 02:13:54.920
So now the.

02:13:54.920 --> 02:13:56.920
Motion on the floor.

02:13:57.920 --> 02:14:02.920
Is a motion to vote the house of five million dollars, line turn capital approval trust fund 46.

02:14:02.920 --> 02:14:05.920
Excuse me for the construction of the sports complex.

02:14:05.920 --> 02:14:11.920
We will get our district property contingent on the closure of the sports complex entrance including the still field.

02:14:11.920 --> 02:14:15.920
And further discussion and the motion on the floor.

02:14:15.920 --> 02:14:16.920
Okay.

02:14:16.920 --> 02:14:19.920
We can vote.

02:14:19.920 --> 02:14:21.920
Randy Myers.

02:14:21.920 --> 02:14:28.920
Abstain.

02:14:28.920 --> 02:14:29.920
Abstain.

02:14:29.920 --> 02:14:30.920
Oh, sorry.

02:14:30.920 --> 02:14:32.920
Angie Schreiber.

02:14:32.920 --> 02:14:33.920
Yes.

02:14:33.920 --> 02:14:34.920
Okay.

02:14:34.920 --> 02:14:39.920
We could please reveal the vote.

02:14:39.920 --> 02:14:41.920
It passes.

02:14:41.920 --> 02:14:45.920
One, two, three, four, five.

02:14:46.920 --> 02:14:47.920
Yes.

02:14:47.920 --> 02:14:52.920
And so the motion passes.

02:14:52.920 --> 02:14:53.920
Six.

02:14:53.920 --> 02:14:56.920
One, two, three, four, six.

02:14:56.920 --> 02:14:57.920
One, six.

02:14:57.920 --> 02:14:58.920
I'm sorry.

02:14:58.920 --> 02:15:01.920
There are the total on the top.

02:15:01.920 --> 02:15:03.920
Oh, how about that?

02:15:03.920 --> 02:15:06.920
That makes it a lot easier.

02:15:06.920 --> 02:15:08.920
Depends on where you're sitting with.

02:15:08.920 --> 02:15:09.920
Okay.

02:15:09.920 --> 02:15:10.920
Ready.

02:15:10.920 --> 02:15:11.920
Because we don't want to make it.

02:15:11.920 --> 02:15:13.920
We're not going to even close public.

02:15:13.920 --> 02:15:15.920
We're not only out of comments.

02:15:15.920 --> 02:15:21.920
No, we're not, we're not in the mic at all.

02:15:21.920 --> 02:15:22.920
All right.

02:15:22.920 --> 02:15:24.920
We're just gonna vote on, yeah?

02:15:24.920 --> 02:15:26.920
Just a little focus on.

02:15:26.920 --> 02:15:27.920
And we're going to call...?

02:15:27.920 --> 02:15:31.920
Quality of the state?

02:15:31.920 --> 02:15:32.920
Yeah, okay.

02:15:32.920 --> 02:15:36.920
Thank you.

02:15:36.920 --> 02:15:37.920
Go behind that.

02:15:37.920 --> 02:15:38.920
We'll make it an hour tonight.

02:15:38.920 --> 02:15:45.640
I move to approve the discussion and possible action on offering school property located

02:15:45.640 --> 02:15:53.560
at 506 grand and go Wisconsin 5 4 4 9 and 1 2 3 2 7th and go Wisconsin 5 4 or 9 for

02:15:53.560 --> 02:15:59.120
sale and move to direct administration 1 to identify and recommend consultants or agents

02:15:59.120 --> 02:16:05.000
to be retained by the district for purposes of soliciting offers to purchase to purchase

02:16:05.000 --> 02:16:12.760
of the properties located at 506 gram and go Wisconsin 5 4 4 0 9 and 1 2 3 2 7th and

02:16:12.760 --> 02:16:20.760
go Wisconsin 5 4 4 0 9 and 2 to solicit receive review and recommend offers to purchase the

02:16:20.760 --> 02:16:29.200
properties located at 5 6 gram and gram and go Wisconsin 5 4 0 9 and 12 3 2 7th and go

02:16:29.200 --> 02:16:36.360
Wisconsin 5 4 4 0 9. I'm gonna guess Davis was behind that. I think that's a fair assumption.

02:16:36.360 --> 02:16:43.200
I was talking about a motion, sorry, that this was also consensus from the board during

02:16:43.200 --> 02:16:50.120
the retreat. Last week we spent two days centered on facilities planning so this was

02:16:50.120 --> 02:16:56.540
consensus and in my motion.

02:16:56.540 --> 02:17:04.880
And not else had anything. So just to be clear it still comes back to the board to approve

02:17:04.880 --> 02:17:12.880
the sale. So that would all clear on that. Any other further discussion?

02:17:12.880 --> 02:17:13.880
Just a question.

02:17:13.880 --> 02:17:19.680
Sure. So this motion as it stands, sorry, that Jill just went through. I'm not gonna

02:17:19.680 --> 02:17:28.680
repeat it all. We're basically just telling administration that, hey, find us some people

02:17:28.680 --> 02:17:33.280
who can do these things for us. I mean, we're not even saying listed or anything. We're

02:17:33.280 --> 02:17:38.400
just saying, here's A, B and C that can help us with our issue at hand, right?

02:17:38.400 --> 02:17:44.200
Well, number one is doing that. Number two is allowing them to receive offers and ask

02:17:44.200 --> 02:17:47.520
for offers. So it's doing both of those things.

02:17:47.520 --> 02:17:50.120
Ultimately, any offers would still come back to the board.

02:17:50.120 --> 02:17:52.120
Yep. Absolutely. Okay. Thank you.

02:17:52.120 --> 02:17:54.120
You didn't catch that part?

02:17:54.120 --> 02:17:56.120
I got it.

02:17:56.120 --> 02:17:58.120
Five or four, nine?

02:17:58.120 --> 02:18:00.120
Five or four, nine.

02:18:00.120 --> 02:18:06.840
Can I just say something? I'm looking for a committee of consultants or a juris to make

02:18:06.840 --> 02:18:13.720
the table with districtor purposes. But does that sit around and I'm looking for an agent

02:18:13.720 --> 02:18:18.120
for this locally, like well, state agents, local, and we can be looking for consultants

02:18:18.120 --> 02:18:26.120
outside of the area that's specialized in this town, school property, school buildings.

02:18:26.120 --> 02:18:32.720
Am I a collector, I understand? Yes, correct.

02:18:32.720 --> 02:18:33.720
Yeah.

02:18:33.720 --> 02:18:34.720
Right.

02:18:34.720 --> 02:18:35.720
Right.

02:18:35.720 --> 02:18:36.720
Right.

02:18:36.720 --> 02:18:40.720
That's a good point to the retreat about outside the box, not just realtors. It could be something

02:18:40.720 --> 02:18:44.720
that we're all missing because that's not our specialty.

02:18:44.720 --> 02:18:45.720
Right.

02:18:45.720 --> 02:18:46.720
Yeah.

02:18:46.720 --> 02:18:53.720
So to advertise that outside of just a local area, I mean, we have some entities that are

02:18:53.720 --> 02:18:58.720
interested in some of the properties that have, but like, I think we actually should look

02:18:58.720 --> 02:19:06.720
at, you know, investment groups that come in and, you know, sell those into different

02:19:06.720 --> 02:19:11.720
businesses or residential areas too. So.

02:19:11.720 --> 02:19:18.720
Yes. And I think that's included with an identify and recommend consultants and agents

02:19:18.720 --> 02:19:25.720
to be retained. Yeah.

02:19:25.720 --> 02:19:28.720
Any other further discussion on the motion on the floor?

02:19:28.720 --> 02:19:29.720
Okay.

02:19:30.720 --> 02:19:36.720
Okay. We're going to move to the vote.

02:19:36.720 --> 02:19:42.720
Angie Schreiber. Yes.

02:19:42.720 --> 02:19:43.720
Randy Myers.

02:19:43.720 --> 02:19:44.720
No.

02:19:44.720 --> 02:19:49.720
We can move you to the vote.

02:19:49.720 --> 02:19:54.720
It passes eight zero.
