I mean, 231 00:17:03,500 --> 00:17:08,620 based on everything that we were told at the timeline is July 31. We then went to Wilson 232 00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:14,560 where they have, you know, depending on how familiar you are with familiar, you are with Wilson. 233 00:17:14,700 --> 00:17:20,760 They have taken the store front off, so it is now boarded up as they're getting ready to put the new store front up there. 234 00:17:21,220 --> 00:17:27,720 Where you walk in the doors, there is now to the, when you walk in right to your left, there is a wall that now in cases that slide room. 235 00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:35,760 Before the full size wall, so that in cases that room, so that way when that other store front to put, that room is now secure as well. 236 00:17:36,300 --> 00:17:42,580 The framing has been completed as well inside of the office space and again it's a case work piece. 237 00:17:42,580 --> 00:17:44,540 The office doorway has been expanded. 238 00:17:45,020 --> 00:17:46,980 Yeah, on that interior whole way. 239 00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:54,000 So again, when you, if you were to go up there and take a look today, you looked at it and go, how are they going to get done in two and a half weeks? 240 00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:56,060 We've been doing construction for a long time. 241 00:17:56,400 --> 00:18:01,760 It doesn't mean that we're not concerned, but at the same time we made it clear on Tuesday of what the expectations are. 242 00:18:02,540 --> 00:18:04,840 Lincoln is a little bit of a different story. 243 00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:10,580 They have done all of the demolition work on the interior part that they had intended 244 00:18:10,580 --> 00:18:12,240 to do, especially up in the front. 245 00:18:12,900 --> 00:18:15,400 They're still waiting to do a little bit of the other work. 246 00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:23,740 As you recall, we did approve two stairway lifts, and so the knee wall that needed to be built 247 00:18:23,740 --> 00:18:28,280 has been built, and the lifts have been delivered. 248 00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:33,900 they, the lifts of lifts of the Illinois have them, and so that is supposed to be done in the next 249 00:18:33,900 --> 00:18:40,960 and the electrical has been run from the downstairs to the upper part of the wall when we were there, it was supposed to be connected then. 250 00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:43,300 So we're, so that's, so that part's moving forward. 251 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:54,300 So other than that interior risers, not a lot of work, one of the things that Tony and I made clear is that while we understand that that front portion was going to be into the school year, 252 00:18:54,300 --> 00:19:01,120 Our expectation is that the carpeted areas that we had set for the year need to be done before the school year starts. 253 00:19:01,780 --> 00:19:05,320 That was one of our no-go's, like it has to be done. 254 00:19:07,120 --> 00:19:18,040 So the front area, they had taken off the canopy and then they had dug out the concrete pad that was right in front of the office area. 255 00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:24,260 I guess the front entry area, there was some concern, or they were waiting on the pillars, 256 00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:26,560 the pears, the pears. 257 00:19:26,900 --> 00:19:32,420 So the pear depth was kind of a hang-up making sure that they got the engineer sign-off 258 00:19:32,420 --> 00:19:37,880 on the depth of the pears, they ended up having to go deeper with the pear than anticipated. 259 00:19:39,020 --> 00:19:43,860 So it took a while to get the submittals and then final approvals done, there was some going 260 00:19:43,860 --> 00:19:48,960 back and forth, so that kind of pushed back a little bit, because one of our questions 261 00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:55,040 at the time was, you know, we had some decent weather during that time. Why weren't we 262 00:19:55,040 --> 00:20:00,020 seeing some of that work, but it was all about making sure that the peers were set or the 263 00:20:00,020 --> 00:20:04,960 level of the concrete for the peers was as deep as it needed to be, and it ended up going 264 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:06,820 a greater depth than originally anticipated. 265 00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:11,240 You know, while we were there, they were actually pouring the new concrete pad, so that 266 00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:16,060 has been done. What I will tell you is I think the thing that was most interesting to me is the 267 00:20:17,620 --> 00:20:24,880 I guess you will call the post or the peers that were in for the canopy. If you drive by Lincoln and you look 268 00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:30,780 out in the front area you'll see one of them that they pulled the amount of concrete that was for that 269 00:20:30,780 --> 00:20:35,720 peer of that pole was unbelievably but not believe how much concrete was used. I mean it's they had to pull that 270 00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:40,540 two feet I mean the rest of them off below the huge yeah I mean it's like two and a half 271 00:20:40,540 --> 00:20:47,280 three feet wide the thing is crazy it's how much for for what was there and for 272 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:52,500 what that overhang add so it makes sense that the peer depth on everything else you 273 00:20:52,500 --> 00:20:57,060 know had to be calculated and make sure that it was at the appropriate depth so before 274 00:20:57,060 --> 00:21:01,460 we did the pay-ups I just want to give you a brief update as to where where construction's 275 00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:17,460 We continue to work with Midwest construction professionals, I don't know what you're going to do. 276 00:21:18,020 --> 00:21:18,820 Do you need to take a moment?

Do I have a motion? 366 00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:46,580 Is that what we're going to move? 367 00:26:46,940 --> 00:26:48,680 Second, any discussion? 368 00:26:51,620 --> 00:26:51,780 Yes. 369 00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:52,860 Yes. 370 00:26:54,700 --> 00:26:54,920 Yes. 371 00:26:55,740 --> 00:26:55,880 All right. 372 00:26:56,100 --> 00:26:58,740 Approve updated exposure control plan. 373 00:27:00,020 --> 00:27:06,160 So, including in your packet is a copy of our exposure control plan policy, there were 374 00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:12,020 no changes to the policy itself, but included in the policy is the date, and so on 375 00:27:12,020 --> 00:27:16,360 the top of the first page. I'll need to change the date to reflect the current year 2020. 376 00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:24,640 So the recommendation is to approve the updated exposure control plan as presented. 377 00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:25,500 Do I have a motion? 378 00:27:26,100 --> 00:27:26,600 Simms. 379 00:27:27,980 --> 00:27:28,300 Second. 380 00:27:29,180 --> 00:27:29,720 Any discussion? 381 00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:31,940 Roll call. 382 00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:36,060 I'm sorry. 383 00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:37,980 Come on, Chris. 384 00:27:38,220 --> 00:27:39,000 Those are causing problems. 385 00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:39,860 Hamilton? 386 00:27:40,360 --> 00:27:40,580 Yes. 387 00:27:41,580 --> 00:27:41,860 Yes. 388 00:27:42,500 --> 00:27:42,740 Yes. 389 00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:43,960 Yes. 390 00:27:45,620 --> 00:27:50,080 Resolution 2627-01-34 audit. 391 00:27:51,020 --> 00:27:56,360 So the Government All Accounting Standard Board requires a gasby type 34 audit for all 392 00:27:56,360 --> 00:27:57,460 governmental bodies. 393 00:27:59,120 --> 00:28:03,480 One of the things with regards to that type of audit is that truly would increase our 394 00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:10,060 audit fees kind of at an estimated roughly 50% and our financial statements would then show 395 00:28:10,060 --> 00:28:15,200 assets instead of fund balances, which is what our statements show. So it's the 396 00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:20,280 opinion of the auditors that the negatives of a gasp-34 audit outweigh the 397 00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:25,340 positives. School code requires an annual financial report and not necessarily a 398 00:28:25,340 --> 00:28:30,440 separate audit reporter or a gasp-34 report. And so by board resolution, our audit 399 00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:40,040 can be done as it has been done in the past with a regulatory opinion instead of 400 00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:48,080 regulatory opinion then is accepted by the State Board of Education, the current U.S. Department of Education, and bonding companies. 401 00:28:49,060 --> 00:28:55,820 And so right now our audit is scheduled to be performed beginning July 27th. 402 00:28:56,380 --> 00:28:59,320 So I recommend the board. Pass the resolution as a result. 403 00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:10,020 So the recommendation is the board pass resolution 2627-01 that our audit for the fiscal year ending June 404 00:29:10,020 --> 00:29:17,180 30th, 206, be done with regulatory opinion and not Gatsby number 34 report. 405 00:29:17,260 --> 00:29:18,540 We have a motion. 406 00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:20,360 Second. 407 00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:22,040 Any discussion? 408 00:29:23,540 --> 00:29:24,100 Roll call. 409 00:29:26,060 --> 00:29:26,320 Yes. 410 00:29:27,220 --> 00:29:27,340 Yes. 411 00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:28,500 Yes. 412 00:29:29,340 --> 00:29:29,560 All right. 413 00:29:29,700 --> 00:29:37,220 Action on release of executive session minutes from December 2025 through May, 2026. 414 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:08,260 So the recommendation is the board not really exit the executive session, minutes from December 2025, through May of 415 00:30:08,260 --> 00:30:17,640 2026, all previously closed minutes were remain closed at this time, and will be reviewed again in six months, do I have a motion? 416 00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:19,220 So moved? 417 00:30:19,580 --> 00:30:19,920 Second. 418 00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:21,460 Any discussion? 419 00:30:22,540 --> 00:30:22,980 Roll call. 420 00:30:23,420 --> 00:30:25,400 Yes, yes. 421 00:30:26,020 --> 00:30:26,260 Yes. 422 00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:27,160 Yes. 423 00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:27,380 Yes. 424 00:30:27,380 --> 00:30:30,540 All right, other business and information items, 425 00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:35,720 cafeteria managers report, a copy of this report is included 426 00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:39,460 in your packet for review, and will be placed on file. 427 00:30:40,380 --> 00:30:42,800 All right, a new teacher induction. 428 00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:46,920 On July 30th and 31st, Mrs. Rickett. 429 00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:49,480 Mr. Rickett and I will welcome in our new staff 430 00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:52,300 that we have hired, including the staff that you 431 00:30:52,300 --> 00:30:56,600 improved tonight, to come in and have some new teacher induction 432 00:30:56,600 --> 00:31:01,060 training.

We can't forget to talk about it 460 00:33:11,310 --> 00:33:17,610 Yeah, and so that's kind of just the financial date. Any questions anybody has financial right now? 461 00:33:18,850 --> 00:33:20,850 Anything for most of you 462 00:33:21,850 --> 00:33:28,870 This timeliness of the state aid payments and not chasing one of the four payments. 463 00:33:29,590 --> 00:33:34,750 We went through a significant period of time where we were always a payment behind. 464 00:33:35,450 --> 00:33:40,390 And then there were times where there was significant pro-oration of payments, the laid payments, 465 00:33:40,510 --> 00:33:44,410 and then we went through a period where technically we were getting fourth payment, 466 00:33:45,190 --> 00:33:49,770 but the fourth payment, one of the four payments was the payment that we were owed from the year before. 467 00:33:49,770 --> 00:33:52,090 So we were continually chasing payments. 468 00:33:52,610 --> 00:33:55,210 Since we've gone to the evidence-based funding model 469 00:33:55,210 --> 00:33:59,610 and see a lot more consistency with the state aid payments, 470 00:34:00,070 --> 00:34:04,350 it does allow us to predict better than we were able to do in the past 471 00:34:04,350 --> 00:34:07,290 especially as we look at the next year's budgeting process. 472 00:34:07,970 --> 00:34:10,170 And so that's been a significant improvement. 473 00:34:10,830 --> 00:34:13,150 And since evidence-based funding was enacted, 474 00:34:14,130 --> 00:34:17,490 this knowledge of this is what we're receiving and being able to actually know 475 00:34:17,490 --> 00:34:22,310 that's what we're receiving and that the payments coming in in a more timely manner, you 476 00:34:22,310 --> 00:34:27,990 know, now it helps us in our decision-making process. So that's been a huge step. I know 477 00:34:27,990 --> 00:34:32,250 a lot of times, you know, we talked a lot about what we're funding is, but you do have to 478 00:34:32,250 --> 00:34:36,350 look for the positives where they exist and I will tell you right now based on what Jason 479 00:34:36,350 --> 00:34:41,630 just delivered. That's an extreme positive. Then we were 10 years ago, definitely 15. 480 00:34:41,730 --> 00:34:46,330 Especially when I first came in the office, that was right when we were in that process. I mean, 481 00:34:46,330 --> 00:34:50,390 constant pro-oration granted we still have pro-racial transportation and special at 482 00:34:50,390 --> 00:34:54,350 funding I'll be intrigued to see how that actually plays itself out to budget accordingly 483 00:34:54,350 --> 00:34:58,550 but but we were seeing more of that across the board at the time yeah yes our 484 00:34:58,550 --> 00:35:04,490 general state was it was bad yeah I think it really it comes down to the 485 00:35:04,490 --> 00:35:09,770 controller has really she's done a great job the things at the state level although our 486 00:35:09,770 --> 00:35:15,170 funding is not an 100% of what it should be yep at least we're getting what we are 487 00:35:18,530 --> 00:35:44,170 And the challenge of, you know, mandated categoricals are what they are, they're mandated, and yet that's where you see your pro-rations. And so something's not, something's not leveling out there when you're mandated. And the transportation payments are another piece to continue to see that pro-ration, but yet, you know, what we're mandated to provide with regards to public transportation, 488 00:35:44,170 --> 00:35:50,290 of transportation, you know, or free transportation, then obviously getting timely payments 489 00:35:50,290 --> 00:35:55,190 would also assist in covering and making sure we're at with cost containment and 490 00:35:55,190 --> 00:35:56,930 other factors or something. 491 00:35:58,010 --> 00:36:01,470 It's still work to be done, but definitely some positives that we're seeing. 492 00:36:02,090 --> 00:36:03,910 All right, FOIA of date. 493 00:36:04,570 --> 00:36:10,970 All of you have a listing of the FOIA requests that were received since the previous board meeting, 494 00:36:10,970 --> 00:36:18,530 As you will see, the ones that we received were all commercial requests, and so we filled those as we were able. 495 00:36:19,070 --> 00:36:26,890 A lot of the vendors that were asked about are not vendors that we utilized, so we wouldn't necessarily have information between them. 496 00:36:27,910 --> 00:36:34,410 There's one that's not on it that we responded to today, and while we were in the process of responding to it, we got another one. 497 00:36:34,410 --> 00:36:37,950 And they're, again, they're all, they're all from the same, it's all from the same, 498 00:36:37,950 --> 00:36:39,310 all commercial, same pieces. 499 00:36:39,910 --> 00:36:43,590 But we understand our obligation to continue to, uh, 500 00:36:43,710 --> 00:36:44,570 comply with this. 501 00:36:46,570 --> 00:36:50,760 All right, uh, transportation update. 502 00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:55,610 Just, just, just, we'll briefly, uh, 503 00:36:55,890 --> 00:37:00,150 with regards to transportation, obviously we hired three drivers, uh, 504 00:37:00,150 --> 00:37:04,510 this evening, uh, continuing to build that base that we've talked about all along, 505 00:37:04,510 --> 00:37:10,810 get to a point where we have an adequate number of subs to cover when you know we do 506 00:37:10,810 --> 00:37:16,070 have call-offs or illness or those kinds of things that don't won't necessarily require 507 00:37:16,070 --> 00:37:21,830 our supervisor or even our mechanic to have to cover those routes. So we continue to build 508 00:37:21,830 --> 00:37:28,150 towards that at the same time you know obviously we're working to clarify things make sure that 509 00:37:28,150 --> 00:37:29,510 and our brain understands expectations. 510 00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:59,240 And so the handbook revisions, job description revisions. And then just other conversations that we've been having. Obviously now we've made our transition to Sherry and her supervisor, roll. And, you know, just having some conversations about the next steps. And, you know, where do we continue to build the program, you know, as we've transitioned, you know, from Bob to Sherry and, you know, we've made progress in a lot of areas. Now, how do we continue to make that progress while still tackling the most difficult. 511 00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:04,780 part of this, which is ensuring that we have the appropriate staffing, but always looking 512 00:38:04,780 --> 00:38:09,900 at our routes as well, where can we consolidate if that opportunity exists, you know, 513 00:38:09,940 --> 00:38:12,800 what are the things we can do to be helping ourselves in those capacities? 514 00:38:13,500 --> 00:38:16,660 So, we've had that conversation with Sherry and those are the kinds of things that she's 515 00:38:16,660 --> 00:38:17,480 working on. 516 00:38:17,580 --> 00:38:23,260 On the flip side of that, also looking at how do we kind of continue to build the level 517 00:38:23,260 --> 00:38:28,620 of training that we provide for both our drivers and our monitors as well as a continual process 518 00:38:28,620 --> 00:38:32,400 for that, and that's something that Sherry is working on right now. 519 00:38:33,240 --> 00:38:35,600 So I appreciate the work that's being done with regards to that too. 520 00:38:37,380 --> 00:38:44,880 All right, anything from the EPA, thank you for being here, any other business by board 521 00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:45,860 or administration? 522 00:38:47,720 --> 00:38:49,100 I have one thing. 523 00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:57,460 So like what happened in the amended budget season, there were not 30 days between 524 00:38:58,260 --> 00:39:03,560 When we did the tentative budget to when we had to do the final approval, the same thing will happen August the September. 525 00:39:04,340 --> 00:39:12,060 So the question is do we schedule the second meeting in September or do we move the meeting in September by from Thursday? 526 00:39:12,820 --> 00:39:17,460 I think it's the 18th, the Tuesday, September 22nd. 527 00:39:18,520 --> 00:39:26,160 So we could do it either way. We could add a second meeting or we could change the meeting and we'd had plenty of time to be able to publish that. 528 00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:28,720 So people are aware that we made a change to our account. 529 00:39:28,720 --> 00:39:30,280 So we would have that approved in there. 530 00:39:30,340 --> 00:39:31,120 And then we would have approved. 531 00:39:31,220 --> 00:39:32,620 We would actually have approved that in the future. 532 00:39:32,620 --> 00:39:33,700 Prove the change in the logism. 533 00:39:35,820 --> 00:39:40,200 I mean, by personal opinion, I would recommend one meeting, 534 00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:42,420 rather than two. 535 00:39:43,300 --> 00:39:46,920 Sometimes it's easier to get folks here for one meeting, 536 00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:49,740 rather than the second meeting in the month. 537 00:39:50,220 --> 00:39:52,840 I mean, as you can see, we've got three apps in our ready. 538 00:39:54,060 --> 00:39:57,180 A lot of that is due to summertime activities, of course. 539 00:39:57,180 --> 00:40:05,300 Hopefully that'll slow down a little bit when it comes to september, but I think it's just an easier opportunity for everybody to get there 540 00:40:05,300 --> 00:40:07,520 So if that's the way we want to move forward 541 00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:09,180 Oh, that was nice, right? 542 00:40:12,920 --> 00:40:15,320 Did you sit september 20 second? 543 00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:17,740 It's september 17th and would 544 00:40:17,740 --> 00:40:21,560 So september 17th is our meeting, it would still be Tuesday to 22nd 545 00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:23,500 And that gives you the 30 30. 546 00:40:23,640 --> 00:40:25,100 Yeah, I guess 547 00:40:25,100 --> 00:40:25,460 one, 548 00:40:33,240 --> 00:40:39,280 two.
