June 27, 2022 at 6:00 PM - Additional Regular Meeting

Description:  A motion will be necessary to approve the agenda as presented (or) with changes as recommended.

Description:  Individuals may use this time to comment on any topic. A copy of Board Policy 187 —Public Participation at Board Meetings is enclosed for your reference. Each speaker will be allowed 3 minutes to speak for a total of  30 minutes.  .  Emailed comments will be shared and reviewed by all the board members but will not be read out loud.

Description:  Attached please find a presentation from the referendum team on the topics of the potential referendum project programs, budgets, and timelines. The staff from EUA will lead the discussion on the project programs (what is included in the design for the projects), the staff from Vogel will lead the discussion on the project budgets, and the referendum team will jointly present the timelines and next steps in the process. 

The referendum team will have supporting information available at the meeting in case any School Board members want to take a deeper look at a particular topic (example: Middle School budget). 

The next step in the referendum planning process will include a presentation from the district's financial advisor at the July 11th regular School Board meeting followed by a presentation on draft referendum resolutions and budgets at the July 25th Special School Board meeting. 

Administration looks forward to hearing School Board members feedback on these topics. 

Description:  Administration requested that the referendum team prepare project timelines that both included and excluded the use of a reimbursement resolution. Board members will see some of these timelines for the first time on Monday night. The referendum team has previously shared two versions of a timeline that require a reimbursement resolution as the design process would begin prior to the referendum. The presentation that has been prepared by the referendum team for Monday night now also includes timelines that do not require a reimbursement resolution. The referendum team looks forward to hearing the School Board members input on the timeline options. 

Description:  The purpose of this agenda item is to review/consider the concept of a reimbursement resolution. No action is required at this time, but the School Board may take action to approve this resolution. 

Attached please find an example reimbursement resolution from our bond attorneys (Quarels & Brady). At the May special board meeting, the concept of a reimbursement resolution was discussed regarding design fees for the construction of a new Heritage Elementary School. Design fees prior to a referendum in November would allow for the opening of a new Heritage Elementary School in September 2024.  The discussion on this topic continued at the Board meeting in June when the administration shared a draft of the reimbursement resolution. 

Administration requested that the referendum team prepare project timelines that both included and excluded the use of a reimbursement resolution. Board members will see some of these timelines for the first time on Monday night. The reimbursement resolution can be tabled until a later date if the School Board prefers more time to evaluate the project timelines.
