[5:32] And Helen, and I was trying to beat our men.

[5:37] No, we're in a competition.

[5:38] Yes.

[5:39] I'm not.

[5:43] This budget is two on the 28th, so we have four days.

[5:50] And the budget in your packages in draft form, before the end of this meeting,

[5:54] I will in front of the finalized of some of the drafts,

[5:57] remove everything to send it to the stream. As you are aware, from our previous funding announcements,

[6:05] our projections that we submitted, our enrollment projections were very conservative,

[6:11] and it showed you our funding enough so our funding is very tight. As some type that we are

[6:16] now in a funding decline, so that means that when we fall, when our decline's rapid,

[6:24] They actually fund students for the first year.

[6:29] So we have over $2,000 in the fund in decline money.

[6:34] So this budget is very conservative budget.

[6:38] So just briefly, I listed the budget assumptions.

[6:43] And obviously there's staffing hiring freeze.

[6:49] That just means that any new positions that we have.

[6:51] we have to think about very carefully before we can say, yes or no, that's when we

[6:58] they get more funding, that's something that we can hire to send that funding. But at this point,

[7:06] we have in the budget 468.469 FTE employees, seven of which are trustees. Our substitute

[7:17] coughs, they're crazy, they're going through the group. So we're making a concerted effort to reduce

[7:23] this cough through help since management and insurance are done by the HR department.

[7:30] Our staff housing, the intent is that this is cost neutral, and we don't be able to collect rents that would allow us to have a small reserve for any capital requirements in the staff housing such as, I see this, I do what I'm happy about, these two have dealt out with the intent that it's a cost neutral expense.

[7:55] schools and departments are starting off with a 10% reduction in their initial budgets for

[8:00] supplies and services. International education, we anticipate having a $300,000 surplus.

[8:07] Now, when I told my director of instruction of the indigenous education, that he or

[8:13] an international education, the almost an average advocate. So we're going to be very careful

[8:19] although, I mean, these summons go down, but that's an optimistic outlook. So if that doesn't happen,

[8:26] then we just need to take action. But in the meantime, 10% people will be expecting to be

[8:32] reduced in this initial standing budget. Indigenous education on the other hand, as it's targeted,

[8:38] we budget to spend the full amount plus the extra grant of 165,000 that we get for

[8:44] the Indigenous Education Council, our asset replacement plan. We don't have a lot of

[8:50] on this cache, so we are going to identify where we can possibly miss rather than help

[8:57] write purchase in the assets, so that we can equip it as computers, and for tricks or traps.

[9:05] And then taking them very, very close to look at what our asset, which I suppose is doing with

[9:09] All travel outside of the district will be monitored and find the district flavor and

[9:16] pretty approval by the by senior leadership before.

[9:21] Ableton's place, child care is meant to also be constitutional to the district.

[9:27] Our controller for a level is working hard on trying to increase our investment revenue

[9:33] as you know we have cash sitting there in the bank waiting like a million dollars

[9:38] from the sale of kill, the 600,000 from the sale of other.

[9:43] So the better we can get in interest, the better our finances will look.

[9:50] And transportation costs, as you know,

[9:52] west coast transports, we brought the seven new buses that

[9:55] was cost virtual to us.

[9:58] And we hope to see its fair and in water transportation.

[10:03] So ultimately our goal is to make sure that

[10:07] So we complete the air intact and then all of the money meant for the kids of that year are spent on operations of that year.

[10:16] I have three motions that I will ask you to approve before I move to finalist budget.

[10:27] Thank you for the answer any questions in my now.

[10:32] The question is just if not just you were in the industry.

[10:35] I was going to make the first motion.

[10:38] And at the Board of Education improve the 2536 annual budget as president.

[10:42] If anybody's second Joseph, please, any discussion? I have questions so bad. Thank you.

[10:50] Tuna's rest. When you say the 10% reduction, again, that's going to fall at half

[10:56] it in the next school year. Is that the 10% because we didn't 10% this year as well?

[11:01] Is it decreasing by another? No, that is the next question. We give them back to 10%.

[11:08] I'll go over here and I'll start off a lot of the last year.

[11:14] But we've been adopted to every step from that.

[11:16] For schools and not the departments and not the schools and departments.

[11:21] Okay. Thank you. Any other questions?

[11:25] Just a minute. Thank you for the chair to.

[11:28] Thank you for the chair.

[11:29] I'm sorry.

[11:32] I mentioned the hiring fees if we had a special director. Sorry.

[11:38] special purpose funds you hire, you can look at hiring someone. But does it mean that if we have someone

[11:44] lead or retire or something, I mean, couldn't back fill? I don't know, that's not what that means.

[11:52] Okay. So, we don't, we don't budget for individuals, we budget for positions,

[11:57] some of the positions they could make with them. Unless, of course, in any situation where

[12:03] a retirement early happens, we always take a second look at the doing with any of that.

[12:08] I'm going to move on to that.

[12:12] Go ahead.

[12:13] Just a few minutes.

[12:14] Just a few minutes.

[12:14] I have questions.

[12:16] I have a question.

[12:17] Substitute.

[12:18] Substitute.

[12:19] I don't know.

[12:20] I don't have all my concerns.

[12:21] I'm making my life difficult.

[12:23] Sorry.

[12:24] I'm not as able to ask them.

[12:26] I wrote down my questions.

[12:27] But I can't look at the paper.

[12:30] Substitute.

[12:30] You mentioned that we have a new.

[12:32] How is the absence.

[12:34] If you shoot a throwing so far.

[12:36] I can't remember if we started that.

[12:38] And we've discussed it.

[12:38] I was just, yeah, good question.

[12:45] Do you have any questions for me?

[12:50] I believe it is going well.

[12:53] I mean, any effort just, yeah.

[12:57] I don't have any concrete, but not just for you.

[13:00] But we're here.

[13:02] We ended the year.

[13:04] That information will be coming.

[13:06] Here we go.

[13:06] It's soon.

[13:07] I have

[13:11] another question.

[13:11] I'm just wondering if I'm going to find a piece of paper.

[13:14] It's sorry.

[13:14] I just felt like it's a page 14.

[13:19] It's not my question.

[13:19] I'm going to find a page 2.

[13:23] Revenues.

[13:31] Yeah.

[13:33] We're in hearing.

[13:34] He.

[13:34] Twenty.

[13:35] Twenty.

[13:36] amended budget, so I don't know if this is a fair curve when I ask this question.

[13:41] So I went down to revenue, gained losses on this flexible,

[13:45] social, attention, and capital assets. So the amended budget should be almost 2 million,

[13:50] and now we're showing them if we haven't gotten there yet, or because that's 2 million

[13:55] is kind of the difference in that cheat. So it's curious that that statement is a consolidation

[14:02] of the council.

[14:03] We found this that it's such a robust in their operating funds, however, that 1.8 million

[14:09] is the second level of yellow.

[14:12] The process from the sale of gold has the proceeds from the sale of whatever the

[14:16] sector is.

[14:17] It's a crazy industry.

[14:18] In my opinion, I'm not able to believe it, so that was the gain, so that money is sitting

[14:23] there.

[14:25] But doing the trust, at this point, we have to do this.

[14:31] Is that a good idea?

[14:32] I'm just going to let you know.

[14:34] Thank you.

[14:34] I'm going to let you know.

[14:36] I'm going to try and page 21 on my computer.

[14:39] page 21.

[14:40] Yeah.

[14:41] See if I can.

[14:42] You did better.

[14:43] Let's spread here.

[14:45] I also.

[14:45] Visual to see.

[14:48] Question.

[14:51] It's.

[14:51] 7.

[14:52] Second.

[14:52] One.

[14:54] Translation.

[14:55] It's.

[14:58] It's.

[14:59] So

[15:00] I was wondering about the costs of the administration costs being so much higher, 2020, 6th budget, then it was in the 20th, 20th, 20th, 11th, again.

[15:12] We not be there, we're not noticing that it seems different. And I was wondering if it was due to additional positions in administration or if it had to do as housing costs, like the 7th or 11th, the administration of the transportation department.

[15:26] So what we have is the alteration system, it's fully administration, it exists, it exists,

[15:36] it exists. The director of operations is, I believe, 40% charge there, and 60% charge to

[15:43] 541, which is operations may there. So the housing administration that's different than

[15:50] housing is the staff housing. So when that line includes staff housing as well, am I reading that?

[15:57] The 7.73 housing, 7.49,000, it represents the administration or when the administration of the staff housing and

[16:07] transportation transportation transportation. So it's this administration of those programs.

[16:15] We have the same people administering staff housing. We don't have a new position for those

[16:20] there's no position, you know, positions, no, how it works, but we've made a effort to show the positions

[16:28] where they really are spending their time. That's what the moment was. I saw nothing but great savings

[16:34] and sense of that. That was great. I just wanted to ask these questions because I'm trying to understand

[16:37] a lot. I'm completely understand that normally I would have a pre session to answer these questions,

[16:43] but this is a preliminary budget and it's just full of our best guests and our

[16:48] So our hopes and dreams, but yeah, when we do our final budget, we will be developing

[16:56] that we are meeting to both with the details.

[17:01] I have met with the needs and dealing with that same information, but it changes

[17:07] changes constantly. So by the time the meetings over, there's a change, it's not going

[17:14] change, because I'm going to stop changing between now and every room. Well, no

[17:18] a lot more. So we're going to help these students.

[17:24] Okay. So, Piano. All right. So we'm moving down to everyone vote on this particular

[17:29] motion. So we have a mover test state right. But in there. But

[17:35] all those have been ever sort of turned over. Carried. Thank you.

[17:44] This one. You have one more to go here. Yes. One more to go. Sorry.

[17:49] We want to join the team.

[17:58] One second, this is a conference.

[18:01] Through the chair, if we could do the next motion, which approves all three meetings,

[18:10] I'll just go.

[18:12] Are you ready for that?

[18:13] The Board of Education approved all three meetings of sort of suit number 70 Pacific Rim,

[18:18] annual budget by law for fiscal year 2025,

[18:21] for each 26 in the June 24th, 2025 for the meeting of the board.

[18:26] We're actually moved by Trustee Ranssen, second by for Trustee Moore.

[18:32] Well, Senator, carried. Thank you.

[18:36] And then the third motion, which is any one of the members of the elders.

[18:40] Yes, you just said, you want to meet, you know?

[18:44] I think we're pretty interested in that.

[18:48] Oh, certainly it results. Yeah, thank you. Yeah,

[18:50] be it resolved is having read a first second and third time as provided for the bylaws that

[18:57] the board chair and the secretary treasurer by authorized to execute just any more by

[19:02] your bylaws 2025-26 on behalf of the board and the corporate seal on board be a fixed error

[19:09] five second break between any questions at this point. I have the document on the screen. I would

[19:20] go to first-by-mise track and talk to you.

[19:24] Oh, it was in favor. Oh, yeah. Oh, yes.

[19:30] Question. Just one of the review of the tools again. Oh, really.

[19:33] First of all, page we're looking at the bottom line.

[19:41] And it's, I don't know, actually. 14 page 13.

[19:49] A lot is in the amount of 64 million, 849, 301 dollars. Thank you. And that also includes

[20:00] on statement for Apple Project expenses of about 5.4.5, no, so that's all, the building

[20:13] repairs and stuff like that. Thank you.

[20:17] Testing. Testing. Testing.

[20:19] Yes, me. You all had your hand. Through the chair, before we reach the last motion, the

[20:27] should be read once. Oh, it's a very early. Yes, we wanted to push the button so much.

[20:39] Okay, so page 13. Okay, a by-law of the Board of Education of School District

[20:47] No. 17 Pacific Rim called the Board to adopt the annual budget of the Board of the

[20:51] on the 2526 or so into section 13 of the school act, RSBC-1996, C-412,

[21:01] as the name of the compliance time called the Act.

[21:03] One, the Board's complied, the provisions of the Act, Ministerial Orders,

[21:08] and Minister of Education, Schalker Pals, is respected,

[21:10] the annual budget adopted by this file out, too.

[21:13] This file out may be cited as school district members,

[21:16] sounds e-acific, or annual budget by a lot for fiscal year,

[21:19] 2020-2026, three the attached statement to showing the estimated revenue expense for the 2025-2026

[21:27] this year, and the total budget by law amount of $60,000,000,000, and $8,000, $9,000, $3,00,

[21:33] and $1,000 for the 2025-2026 this year was prepared in accordance with the act.

[21:40] Just, I'm missing hearing another shot. Okay, so our statement to four and schedules to four

[21:46] for adopted as the annual budget of the board for the fiscal year 2020-2526. First,

[21:52] for the first time, for the 2014 June 2020-25,

[21:56] for the second time in front of the year 2020-25,

[21:59] for the third time passed and adopted the 2014-25 June 2020-25.

[22:07] Let's say number, ransom, second or anything further,

[22:12] There are also some favor.

[22:16] Parade.

[22:18] One of us practice.

[22:20] I believe.

[22:22] Yeah.

[22:22] It's challenging.

[22:23] It's hard.

[22:24] I can feel.

[22:24] We will now say.

[22:26] It's like chronic versions to the ministry.

[22:28] They have allergy.

[22:30] We'll set a sign to copy the CFC for a chair by the finance.

[22:41] Thank you so much.

[22:42] Thank you so much.

[22:46] We're moving down to 10.2.

[22:49] Over chair was the last one, Kerry?

[22:53] Please, please.

[22:57] 10.2, land disposal, middle-siri off.

[23:00] Good.

[23:01] It's Mason.

[23:07] I prepared a report.

[23:08] I hope anybody had a chance to read it.

[23:11] To sum it up.

[23:14] The board is considering a land exchange involving a small portion of district on property that served

[23:21] plus to current educational needs.

[23:24] This piece of property is in your code.

[23:27] But Jason is two of the includes secondary school and track that.

[23:31] Rather than pursuing a sale, the board is exploring all that and so on with the municipality or a nearby parcel of a public sizing value.

[23:42] This initiative is intended to better align with the long-term district planning objectives and support broader community development goals.

[23:50] It would resolve existing land encroachments to facilitate the future potential development and school district employee housing.

[23:57] And we'll provide the municipality with land suitable for an affordable housing project.

[24:03] And we'll also enable the creation of the New York space and improve road access infrastructure.

[24:09] To proceed with this although it's not the sale of land and it's just a land swap,

[24:13] Ministerial Equinole is still required.

[24:16] We are also required to engage in a public consultation as that's mandated by the Ministry.

[24:23] and it's a collaborate with the community to ensure transparency and alignment.

[24:29] A letter of intent, aligning the terms of the proposed landscape, as well as the letter

[24:34] to support for the municipality's housing initiative, by being prepared, also to advance the process.

[24:41] There are a series of motions in your package that I've recommended to allow us to form an

[24:47] look initially a approval process and to offer a staff to continue working with the

[24:56] miss of Aldi on this mutually beneficial initiative.

[25:04] In question, so I speak to her.

[25:07] Thank you, Chair.

[25:08] Excuse me.

[25:09] What's currently?

[25:09] Is there anything on the lands right now?

[25:12] Right now, there's part of it has a B&X track.

[25:17] And that's the only thing to have.

[25:19] That would be the only thing that this school district is. Yes, yes. Any other questions.

[25:28] So you have four separate motions, say to proceed.

[25:35] Five.

[25:37] I've got four on the list.

[25:38] Five.

[25:41] All

[25:46] right. So let's begin.

[25:48] I need a second or four number one.

[25:51] Thank you, Washington.

[25:52] I'd like to move on to the Board of Education of School District number 70 Pacific Rimdick.

[25:56] They're pushing on could hardly locate it a lot.

[25:59] on VIP 3-008-0-DISTRAP.2-8-2-2,

[26:03] of course, on the district 1-35-0-Penensal Road,

[26:07] is shown in the attached appendices

[26:09] as surplus to the educational needs of the district.

[26:13] Any second or next.

[26:17] Questions?

[26:19] Ms. Conzenetti?

[26:20] That is the chair to answer, mason.

[26:26] The district can feel that we'll

[26:28] initiate a zoning amendment that

[26:30] would add, thanks to those, they're going to initials and zoning in the mix.

[26:37] So those amendments, just like, and you're going to go through City Council and Public and Public Law.

[26:43] So is there a guarantee that those amendments will be, I'm just wondering if the land,

[26:47] once if we do the swap, is the swap happen after the amendments are guaranteed,

[26:52] like that we do get re-selling and there's no problem building housing or what that

[26:56] do that's, that's what we're potentially looking at.

[27:08] Just to be clear, this isn't necessarily impact on our housing project.

[27:13] It's their housing project, but it really impacts.

[27:16] So there's no, just to be really clear,

[27:18] the property is not, we're not asking for this,

[27:20] they're asking for this for their project,

[27:21] and it doesn't impact our project at all.

[27:36] Thank you, further.

[27:39] On the first option,

[27:42] Washington has submitted that.

[27:44] Trustee Joseph, second, isn't it?

[27:45] Oh, it's in favor.

[27:47] Thank you.

[27:50] Mr. Wright, thank you. I'd like to make a motion that the Board of Education

[27:54] direct staff for the superintendent to proceed through the steps required by the District of

[27:58] New Poolet and the Ministry of Infrastructure to legally subdivide the portion of land

[28:02] currently contained in PID-001-288-277-10 and VIP-3080-368-2002,

[28:16] click what land districts, 1350 prints in the road into its own lot heading ministerial approval.

[28:24] Thank you a second or please. Second order. Thank you.

[28:29] And if you're really questions, I just want to thank you.

[28:32] To a super thank-labor. I know because we're having a project that we would like to do for the lands

[28:42] Uh, once I'll end this walk, um, do you have a rough timeline for that? Is there, is it?

[28:49] Anything happening in these types? You know, is it just, we're just swapping the line for to get there project going right now?

[28:55] Thank you, teacher. We actually are encroaching a little bit on that property or practice, so it just makes sense that we actually get them.

[29:02] You sort of back the new track on, and then you get that place at the other piece in order to run their services.

[29:07] So the only benefit to us right now is that they start to run services, we can have a little piece of that to make sure the service is aligned with what we want to do.

[29:14] But the costs that we're going to now are prohibitive, considering the amount of money we have in the capital.

[29:19] So this is sort of a bit of a house you can take to them to proceed with the button requests for their grant requests.

[29:25] So they can go to the ministry and they'll say, here's our plan, here's the plot, here's the property right now, it doesn't match.

[29:31] So I need to do that. At least get the board to commit that if everything works out in the end.

[29:36] And the mystery approves, and they get them so many changes that they're just going to be a simple change of line essentially allows them to then do different.

[29:44] Right, but our project is here. Thank you very much.

[29:48] Thank you for the justice and energy to share to you.

[29:51] So when you talk about them running the lines and when I read this, there is some kind of working together.

[29:58] Are we going to be responsible for paying for any of those?

[30:00] Lines that run in the basement, whatever it is, the road loss or whatever it's going to go.

[30:07] Through the chair, very preliminary talk about that. They will, we have up $1,000 in the business survey in that piece.

[30:17] But they're working with us and they're very aware of that.

[30:20] Where they run those services, we want to make sure there's enough room on both sides of that service line that we can still build.

[30:26] we wrote some building pieces, so it's sort of to help them, but they totally know what our thoughts are and that property that we own.

[30:34] This one for sort of help them and probably help us down for them.

[30:39] We'll help them.

[30:40] We'll help them.

[30:41] Okay.

[30:42] Anything else?

[30:43] Interesting.

[30:44] Okay.

[30:45] On the motion that I'll also take care of.

[30:47] Okay.

[30:48] Thank you.

[30:49] Moving down to the next.

[30:50] It's motion on the list here.

[30:53] Can you move on for a second, please?

[30:55] Steve, are you going to move that?

[30:57] That the Board of Education direct staff

[30:59] through the superintendent to prepare

[31:00] and submit a formal request to the Ministry of Justice

[31:03] for the structure seeking approval

[31:04] to dispose of the property.

[31:06] For the purpose of performing a land exchange

[31:09] of the following lands with a district

[31:10] of it as follows.

[31:12] The transfer of a portion of school district number 70

[31:16] Pacific Rim, land legally described as PID-001-288-27010, land VIP-3008-0, and district lot 282,

[31:29] like lot land district, 1350 Peninsula Road to the district of Eucalyte.

[31:33] The exchange for the transfer of a portion of district of Eucalyte, land legally described as district
