6)d. Mid Year SOF Comparison
Description:
This is a report that Margaret did last year. Mary and I have tried to determine where all the numbers came from but were not completely successful. Mary revamped the report. In my opinion what we are attempting to show is a comparison of the amount of revenue the state is currently paying us compared to what we are actually earning and what we budgeted. If it does not make sense we will be able to explain it better in person. Recommendation: No action is needed, for information only.

At this time Mary and I are still looking at the depository contracts. We received bids from 3 banks, First National Gilmer, Austin Bank and City National (Hawkins). We will create a spreadsheet of the bids and email to you, at the latest on Monday. Recommendation: None at this time. Will provide a recommendation at board meeting. Motion: "I move the board accept the depository contract with ______________________."

6)f. Policy Update 85
Description:
I have attached the vantage points and a local policy comparison for you to review. I believe all of the local policy recommendations are good for our district. I do not recommend any changes. Certain language must be used in making the motion. Administrative Recommendation: Approve Policy Update 85. Motion: "I move that the board add, revise, or delete (LOCAL) policies as recommended by TASB Policy Service and according to the Instruction Sheet for TASB Localized Policy Manual Update 85."

Description:
As the board approved last year, I would like to be able to offer contracts to professional personnel as needed through the summer. At this time we only have a HS science position actually open. Recommendation: Authorize the Superintendent to hire professional personnel from May 13 to September 14, 2009. Motion: "I move the board authorize the Superintendent to hire professional personnel from May 13 to September 14, 2009."
Subject:
6)h. Struck Off Property
Description:
Property #1 is the same as we rejected in April at $1000 now the bid is at $2000, iI called the appraisal district and received clarification on this property after last months discussion. this bid is only on the 1.24 acres. That leaves 4 acres of the tract. I believe this is closer in line and would accept the bid. Property #2 is a very small track and probably not worth much more than the bid. Recommendation: Accept Struck off Property #1 and Accept Struck off Property #2. Motion: "I move the board accept the resolution for struck off property bid #1 at $2000 for 1.24 acres." "I move the board accept the resolution for struck off property bid #2 at $1000 for 0.253 acres."
Subject:
7) Facilities
Description:
I placed this on the agenda if the bond passes. If it does pass, I have a meeting planned at 10am on Tuesday morning with the Construction Manager, Architect, Wayne and myself.
