Description:
This agenda item is the opportunity for the audience to address the Board. The Board will take no action on issues brought before it at this time but may refer such issues to the administration for further study.
In keeping with Board Policy 2504 the following rules apply to audience participation: Series 2000: Bylaws 2500 Board Meetings and Open Meetings Act Compliance 2504 Public Participation at Board Meetings Any member of the public may address the Board at a Board meeting, subject to the following rules: A. Except during a public participation portion of a Board meeting, no member of the public or other person may address the Board during a public meeting without the express permission of the President or other presiding officer.
B. The Board will follow public participation rules that balance the District’s interest in an orderly public meeting with an individual’s First Amendment rights. A copy of these rules and any additional public participation rules adopted by the Board will be made available at Board meetings. The Board’s public participation rules include, but are not limited to, the following: 1. before addressing the Board, a member of the public will state their name and address;
2. each person’s public comments are limited to 3 minutes per public participation period. This time limit may be adjusted by the President or other presiding officer to facilitate public participation at Board meetings; 3. persons who are part of a group or organization or who share similar viewpoints are encouraged to designate a spokesperson to address the Board; 4. public comments of a personal nature are prohibited when: (a) the comments are unrelated to the manner in which a Board member or District employee performs that person’s duties, and (b) the comments cause a substantial disruption to the meeting; 5. any public comment not protected by the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution is prohibited; 6. Board members may ask questions of the speakers but are not required to answer questions or make statements in response to a public comment; 7. written statements and documents presented to the Board by a public participant or group are public records and must be given to the Secretary or designee; and 8. any audio recording, video recording, broadcasting, or telecasting must be performed from the seating area designated for the public or in the area otherwise designated by the President, Superintendent, or designee, and must not disrupt the meeting. C. Once the President or other presiding officer has determined that each member of the public requesting to do so has had a reasonable opportunity to address the Board during a public participation portion of a Board meeting, the President or other presiding officer will announce that the public participation portion of the meeting has ended.
Legal authority: U.S. Const, amend. I; MCL 15.263(1), 15.263(5); MCL 380.1808 D. If the President or other presiding officer determines that a member of the public has violated 1 or more of the above rules and refuses to come into compliance with those rules, the member of the public will lose the right to speak during public comment at that meeting. A person who persistently engages in disorderly conduct or otherwise breaches the peace at a Board meeting, after notice from the President or other presiding officer, may be removed. |

Description:
Two of the District’s snow plow trucks, a 2006 F-250 (41,664 miles) and a 2008 F-250 (66,047 miles), have reached the end of their useful life due to extensive undercarriage and frame corrosion, and continued use during the coming plow season presents a safety concern. Four plow trucks are needed to safely clear the District for the school day, and the District currently has two. The replacement vehicles are 2027 Ford F-250 Super Cab 4x4 trucks equipped with the Snow Plow Prep Package and a Western straight blade plow with deflector kit.
The District’s 2008 F-450 Food Service delivery box truck (83,000 miles) has experienced ongoing reliability issues, and the District does not currently have a back-up vehicle for Food Service deliveries. A new 2027 Ford E-450 cutaway with a 16’ box and fold-up liftgate will be purchased for Food Service deliveries. The District plans to retain the existing box truck for non-food deliveries and furniture moves, and to use it as a back-up when the new vehicle is being serviced. LaFontaine Ford Lansing provided quotes through the MiDeal State Contract (#240000001209), allowing the District to utilize competitively solicited pricing without issuing a separate Request for Proposal. The quotes total $113,168 for the two F-250 plow trucks ($56,584 each, including plow installation) and $63,953 for the E-450 box truck (including liftgate installation). The F-250 plow trucks will be funded through the Building & Site Fund and the E-450 box truck will be funded through the Food Service Fund. Delivery timing will be confirmed following Board approval and upon issuance of a purchase order. Enclosures: LaFontaine Ford Lansing Quote #100926 (2027 F-250, qty. 2) and Quote #101226 (2027 E-450) |
