Okay, welcome everyone to the Board of Education Public Meeting of September 4th, 2018.
[0:07]
Would everyone please surprise for the pledge of allegiance?
[0:11]
This has already happened.
[0:14]
Congratulations to the Board of Education of the United States of America.
[0:18]
Thank you for your public.
[0:20]
Congratulations to the Board of Education,
[0:26]
please.
[0:31]
Ticket, would you give us the reiteration of executive session?
[0:34]
Sure, the board met an executive session to this matters pertaining to board development.
[0:43]
So, the few opening remarks tonight.
[0:46]
First is welcome.
[0:47]
We are very close to the start of the school year.
[0:50]
So, students arrive in two days.
[0:53]
We had a really nice kick off this morning with a K-12 faculty and staff in the PMHS auditorium this morning,
[1:03]
where I had a chance to welcome them.
[1:04]
Dr. Tamp had a chance to welcome the Leia Tabas from PTA Council, Bob Tracy from the Palo
[1:09]
Medication Foundation, and I think it was a really nice start to be here.
[1:15]
Also, I want to note, sadly, we have a location change for our first Board of Education
[1:19]
Coffee on September 21. So, the first Board of Education Coffee will be moving to JKFA.
[1:25]
We're very sorry to hear that the big four corners are closed. We thank Lisa and her team
[1:30]
for hosting us many times and we wish them all well.
[1:33]
So that was a bit unexpected.
[1:36]
Also, we'll soon be announcing applications
[1:38]
for a Board of Education committees for this year.
[1:40]
We want to thank everyone who served last year
[1:42]
and hope that anyone who's interested in serving this year
[1:46]
will apply.
[1:47]
More information will be available soon via our regular
[1:50]
communication channels and also on our website.
[1:53]
So please look out for that.
[1:54]
We will definitely be looking for community members
[1:57]
to join our committees.
[2:00]
Lastly, Mayor Volpi has made us aware of a communication he received everyone on the board
[2:05]
should have seen it in their packet.
[2:08]
We're going to be building of a hundred and thirty-fourth, or should say proposed, hundred
[2:12]
and thirty-foot communications tower on the green space, almost directly behind us, at the
[2:17]
entrance to the Hutchins of River Parkway directly across from English fields.
[2:22]
Proveous reasons we are concerned about this project.
[2:24]
We will stay in touch with the mayor's office and determine how to best proceed. Our intention was to draft a communication from the Board of Education.
[2:33]
Dr. Champ was going to be talking to Council and we would draft something and circulate it for everybody's feedback.
[2:40]
But I think this is an issue that we certainly want to be here heard on.
[2:44]
If anyone has any feedback for or questions please let me know.
[2:48]
I believe it's crowned communications.
[2:50]
Is the proposed telecom company?
[2:53]
Okay.
[2:54]
It doesn't have to do with the bill.
[2:55]
It's just tell us.
[2:56]
It does not have anything to do with the bill.
[2:58]
We do not own the property, apparently.
[3:00]
No.
[3:01]
The state land.
[3:02]
Yeah.
[3:02]
The idea.
[3:05]
I'm so more on that.
[3:07]
As it weren't, you know, we will stand top of it.
[3:09]
And as I say, get a communication around for, for feedback.
[3:15]
So that brings us to 2.6, which there was a minor mistake in the year that we had
[3:26]
we had listed in the appointment of the board members last time around.
[3:31]
So, unfortunately, we have to rescind that motion and make a new motion.
[3:36]
So, number 2.6 is the rescinding of that motion.
[3:41]
So, do I have a motion to do so?
[3:43]
So, move.
[3:43]
Second.
[3:45]
All in favor?
[3:47]
Kind of open.
[3:48]
I was just kidding.
[3:50]
I was just kidding.
[3:50]
I was just kidding.
[3:51]
I was just kidding.
[3:52]
I believe yes, and now 2.7, and I am not going to read this into the record, but this is
[4:02]
just the correct language, just 2.8, with the correct end date, so the wrong year the
[4:08]
2019 year was used as it was to be 2018 year, as it was to be 2019 year, was used so this
[4:17]
language is corrected. So do I have a motion?
[4:21]
Some of it. Second?
[4:23]
Right. All in favor?
[4:25]
Hi.
[4:26]
Objections?
[4:28]
Abstentions?
[4:29]
Okay. Thanks for your time.
[4:31]
I've been in two weeks and I didn't object to the program.
[4:34]
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
[4:34]
It's not like nobody ran for the hell, so I'm glad to hear it.
