[0:00] 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.
