1
00:00:03,730 --> 00:00:31,500
I called to order the Riverview Community School District Board of Education regular meeting for August 25th, 2026. Secretary Walker, roll call, please. President Ford here. Secretary Walker here. Treasurer Davis here. Trustee Meeks here. Trustee O’Brien here. Trustee Toth here. Vice president Tyminski. Excused. We’ll rise for pledge of Allegiance. I pledge.

2
00:00:31,500 --> 00:01:03,530
Allegiance to the flag of the United States of America. And to the republic for which it stands. One nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. We’ll go to guests and visitor comments for the two minute session.

3
00:01:03,530 --> 00:01:34,530
The purpose of the public participation portion of the meeting is to provide an opportunity for the citizens to share their thoughts with the board. Personal concerns are best handled through proper channels. Questions requiring investigation will be referred to the superintendent for consideration. Are there any guests and visitors with comments for the two minute period? Seeing none. Next, we’ll move on to the bond presentation. Good evening.

4
00:01:34,530 --> 00:01:52,230
Uh, tonight we have a special guest, uh, Brian from McCarthy and Smith, our construction manager, and Craig from French architecture, uh, are here to do a little presentation about the research they’ve done and talk to the board and the community about, uh, some potential projects for our district, uh, for the upcoming November election.

5
00:01:52,230 --> 00:02:39,670
Uh, so at this time, I guess, as the board will go out to the audience and turn the floor over to Brian and Craig. Thank you, Superintendent Hansel. Thank you for having us. Thank you for the introduction. As as Mr. Haskell had suggested. My name is Brian Guzman. I’m a participant in the construction here. Great pleasure.

6
00:02:39,670 --> 00:02:56,730
And we are here to present some of the findings, some of the discussions, um, and some updates as far as the proposed bonds that would just be on the ballot in November. Um, you did come to this board in April to provide a very similar presentation, which really kind of highlights areas in which.

7
00:02:56,730 --> 00:03:17,070
we assessed the buildings, programs, infrastructure and technology alike to try and really create the best bang. For the buck. I think one of the big suggestions is part of this bond was how do we impact. students as possible? How do we do it in a pragmatic way, in a transparent way.

8
00:03:17,070 --> 00:03:35,770
And um, is fiscally responsible as possible. So that really started with the building assessment. But that really entails what in the building. Um, along with the facilities as well as some of the administration staff, uh, to discuss some of the issues in the buildings, some of the concerns both now and in long term, some of those things that we reviewed were the building

9
00:03:35,770 --> 00:03:57,070
systems, the HVAC, roofing, the electrical and plumbing, as well as some things that may not be broke now, but we use the term principal is basically a identification of when we think things could fail. Um, not now, but to see and ensure that we’ve got our best plan ahead of us.

10
00:03:57,070 --> 00:04:17,000
Um, to continue to enable things to work. Um, other things that we want to consider is, is program related upgrades. So those aren’t necessarily the bricks and sticks in the buildings themselves, but maybe what are some of the program challenges that potential bond assist in or help alleviate.

11
00:04:17,000 --> 00:05:54,530
And then after we gather all that information to really try and prioritize that. Goes to the staff the way that we. And so we are committed. Many of. Able. Elementary. Given a similar presentation back in um, really just to highlight some of the big impacts as it pertains to the elementary schools. So that’s starting with the classroom building. So, uh, prioritization has taken place.

12
00:05:54,530 --> 00:06:17,600
Each classroom, uh, classroom technology select sealing and foreign replacement again is regulated. Um, um, providing updates throughout the buildings. Um, but as you walk through the buildings, some have not received those countries yet.

13
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:36,370
Um, and so we would look to incorporate those as part of our, as well as partial classroom conversion things. One thing that I think is listed on the previous slide, that we might not have touched on it, there’s not one bond that it’s ever solved. Every bond.

14
00:06:36,370 --> 00:07:00,300
Um, so the challenge is always to prioritize it, the sense of what creates the most impact and again, on that fiscal year, responsible viewpoint, what makes the most sense that we’ve seen. So, um, there’s Jesse Castle classroom. Window treatments was was the thing that we’re really across the board now with the safety and security functionality of the classroom. Um, and moving those helps in tremendous ways beyond just lighting control and those types of things.

15
00:07:00,300 --> 00:07:23,130
We’ll be seeing one big item here that’s noted on here at Huntington, specifically in the classroom. So that really is a functionality of of how the district is from an athletic standpoint as well as activity standpoint. With the limited facilities that.

16
00:07:23,130 --> 00:09:27,200
So by being able to provide a gymnasium, Huntington that provides some flexibility and whether that be after school activities, curriculum during the course of the school day, as well as any other grade level, to be able to utilize that. Um, not only during school, but after school. Um, and then selected for each of the activities.

17
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:52,070
Entrance signage was one of the things that was was brought as one of the priorities, as well as additional parking. So I know that there has been additional having worked throughout the past projects. Parking is always something that was something that was really fraught. I think over and over again.

18
00:09:52,070 --> 00:10:15,070
Updating the locker rooms, window treatments, media centers and that would be like carpet basins simply to replacement scoreboard and classroom door hardware upgrades. So that was again, one thing that I think got mentioned on multiple occasions to update, not only the doors, but the hardware associated with as codes have changed, requirements change that patients changed over the years on what those type of hardware.

19
00:10:15,070 --> 00:10:32,670
And so that again, was priority as part of our discussions, a lot of the door replacements, the ceiling tile replacements, cafeteria upgrades, um, boilers. So we didn’t call a lot of the equipment out by name. But high school being one of those is the boiler replacement. We’ve been talking to some of the staff.

20
00:10:32,670 --> 00:10:49,870
That for years, and something that is a is a critical role. We use the term kind of warm, safe and dry as kind of guiding things about different scopes of work and what they actually feel.

21
00:10:49,870 --> 00:11:12,230
Um, and so that really falls within that temperature controls, as Craig mentioned, really helps you just not only monitor but maintain the equipment you have. Understanding that this bond proposal would not replace everything that we’ve got. Um, but by upgrading those temperature controls, you understand what that classroom is doing. Um, and kind of better monitor it and maintain it according partial classroom furniture replacement. So classroom technology, furniture, window treatments, um, ceilings and floors.

22
00:11:12,230 --> 00:12:02,370
That’s pretty much the common denominators that we see across across the board when it comes to all of these buildings. In with a high school. So as far as athletic fields and tennis court replacement. Tennessee popular areas. Grandstand replacement. Added that one on there. Um.

23
00:12:02,370 --> 00:12:57,370
Precast things that are system probably notices are walking up and down those stairs. The closings of the stairs are starting to crack every day. And so. That is. Not a whole lot at facilities. Um, there is a suggestion for two new buses and, uh, paving one of the two parking lots that facilities, both of which are currently gravel. So. Site improvements, 14% construction, the gymnasium and additional.

24
00:12:57,370 --> 00:13:55,230
Some of these are elements that. Will. Will cover a lot of. So that’s a that’s a picture. In our last slide. So kind of an update of where we were where we are. So if we were the campaign process and we underway, um, through October.

25
00:13:55,230 --> 00:14:13,800
Uh, the bond signage was working through and some of that being circulated. The suggestion is not really advertising that some people get educated on, on what the bond is and how that does or does not affect them.

26
00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:31,630
And, and certainly show up on, on both, um, where we’re at right now as far as working kind of every other week just to check in and make sure that we’re all still in alignment, because sometimes priorities do change. Sometimes things, uh, show themselves that didn’t show themselves. Uh, you know, a month ago or a year ago.

27
00:14:31,630 --> 00:14:46,530
And so we want to make sure that we continue to keep an eye on, on prioritizing those projects as emergencies and needs come up that we want to make sure we can move on and have the best plan for. So with that being said, we’re currently working on what that projecting is scheduled would be. Um, with the successful passing of the bond, usually the first question for the bond. Okay. All right.

28
00:14:46,530 --> 00:15:02,270
When when can we start? Um, so we want to have a good strategy with that successful bond, both on trying to get started as soon as humanly possible. How can we impact students as quickly as possible, knowing that some of the things that we want to times, but it takes time to get better, what we’re building, strategizing,

29
00:15:02,270 --> 00:16:37,300
understanding, that’s kind of what we’re working on right now, trying to get all these projects in the logical sequence. Um, to be successful, obviously, the boat coming up then will be in November, and then following that successfully and 99 days. Just the last. And all of that.

30
00:16:37,300 --> 00:16:56,530
Well, I got one question. I just want to thank you for the presentation. It’s a really very comprehensive and it informs the public as to what all the things we’re looking at to improve for the staff and the kids.

31
00:16:56,530 --> 00:17:20,670
And one of the things that sticks in my mind from we had a strategic plan done in 2022, and our superintendent search, we hired Mr. Hetzel and prominent in those surveys was, uh, feedback from stakeholders, the unmet needs of the 2018 bond. So our 2018 bond was pretty modest compared to, say, some passed by our neighboring districts.

32
00:17:20,670 --> 00:17:40,370
We kind of met the public where, where, where it was comfortable for them. And now this this bond is a good timing to take that up for those unmet needs at that time. And then new needs. Boy time flies. That was eight years ago.

33
00:17:40,370 --> 00:18:58,200
And as we all know, if you’re a homeowner and as things kind of start to degrade, there’s there’s a period of time you have to you have to accept that, uh, maintenance and upgrades are necessary for, like you said, safe, warm and dry for the best learning, the best teaching environment for our staff and our kids. So thank you for the presentation. Thank you. Thanks. Thank you. Gentlemen. Okay. Next we’ll go to our new employee introduction.

34
00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:21,200
Superintendent Hetzel. Yes. Tonight we have an exciting evening. Two weeks away from the start of school. Uh, we’d like to introduce, uh, some of our newest team members. Some of them are familiar. Uh, they’ve been with the district, but now we’re taking on more, um, official roles.

35
00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:44,630

Uh, we’ve had, uh, guiding coalition and professional development meetings to plan for the summer.

66

Today was our final summer learning event, which was an awesome event. Uh, and I do want to give special thanks for the, uh, guiding coalition and PD and summer events to Miss Maxon and her team, who, uh, extended opportunities beyond the regular school year for our families and kiddos.

68
00:33:59,930 --> 00:34:16,530
and students. So. I’m sure I miss somebody, but we are so grateful to have a wonderful, dedicated team here in Riverview. Uh, we know the day to day teaching stuff that it takes to be a teacher and learner, but there’s so much more that’s required to make all of it happen.

69
00:34:16,530 --> 00:34:32,370
Uh, as we said in two weeks. So thank you to all who have worked so hard this summer. Uh, back to our, uh, emergency plan.

Thanks again to McCarthy and Smith and French for helping us, uh, to use the data collected from all the stakeholders as well as their expertise and facility assessment, uh, to plan going forward to assure that with this melody, our facilities are safe and up to date for our students.
