WITH THAT BEING SAID, WE ARE GOING TO CALL THE MEETING TO ORDER.
AND WE DO HAVE A WE DO DETERMINE THERE IS A QUORUM.

[III. Superintendent's Message]
DR. LOPEZ. WELL, I WANT TO THANK EVERYBODY FOR COMING ON THIS VALENTINE'S DAY.THIS IS, I GUESS, OUR VALENTINE'S DAY SPECIAL.
WE GOT A FEW THINGS THAT WE'RE GOING TO BE GOING OVER ON THIS AGENDA.
BUT ADDITIONALLY, YOU KNOW, RIGHT AFTER THIS MEETING, I JUST WANT THE PUBLIC TO BE AWARE THAT THERE'S GOING TO BE A SPECIAL MEETING DEALING WITH THE POTENTIAL OF A BOND REFERENDUM. SO IF YOU ARE NOT AWARE OF IT OR YOU WANT PEOPLE TO KNOW, TUNE IN AT 5:00, THAT'S WHEN WE'RE DUE TO GO LIVE.
THANK YOU, SIR. THANK YOU, DR.
[IV.A. Information Items]
LOPEZ. GOING TO ITEM NUMBER FOUR, THE AGENDA ITEMS. THIS WILL BE THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES FOR FEBRUARY THE 2023.ITEM NUMBER A, INFORMATION ITEMS. NUMBER ONE WILL RECEIVE A BOARD OF TRUSTEES CONTRACT RENEWAL REPORT FOR FEBRUARY 2023.
MARK BOOKER. IS ANYONE GOING TO DO THAT REPORT FOR MR. BOOKER? OR DO WE NEED TO HAVE A REPORT FOR.
WE'LL LET YOU DO IT. MR. BEACH, BOARD OF TRUSTEES. DR.
AND SO BEFORE YOU IS THE CONTRACT RENEWAL REPORT FOR FEBRUARY 2023.
ANY QUESTIONS FROM ANY OF THE COMMITTEE MEMBERS? EVERYBODY GOOD? LINDA YOU GOOD? ANYBODY? THANK YOU, MR. RINGO. WE'LL MOVE ON TO THEN TO ITEM NUMBER TWO AND WE'LL LET THE COMMITTEE MEMBERS BE AWARE OF THERE IS A NEW HANDOUT AT YOUR DESK THAT WAS JUST GIVEN TO US TODAY.
SO THIS IS THE REVIEW OF THE 2022 MONTHLY FINANCIALS, MS. DAVENPORT. GOOD AFTERNOON, MR. BEACH, BOARD OF TRUSTEES, DR.
LOPEZ. BEFORE YOU, IS THE DECEMBER 2022 MONTHLY FINANCIAL REPORT.
IN ADDITION TO THE DETAILED NUMBERS YOU'RE ACCUSTOMED TO RECEIVING, THERE ARE THREE NEW CHARTS THAT HAVE BEEN ADDED TO THIS REPORT TO HELP YOU GIVE JUST A DIFFERENT LOOK TO WHAT'S GOING ON. AND SO WE'LL BRIEFLY EXPLAIN THOSE THREE.
AND THEN DR. RINGO HAS ADDITIONAL INFORMATION HE IS GOING TO SHARE.
AND SO IT TAKES THE FULL BUDGET AND LOOKS AT IT COMPARED TO, AGAIN, ACTUALS.
IT'S BROKEN OUT BETWEEN PAYROLL AND NON PAYROLL.
THAT IS GOING TO BE THERE WE GO.
THANK YOU. BECAUSE WE'RE LOOKING AT DECEMBER FINANCIALS THAT IS SIX MONTHS THROUGH OUR FISCAL YEAR.
AND SO YOU'LL SEE SIX MONTHS OF BUDGET COMPARED TO ACTUAL EXPENDITURES TO DATE AS OF DECEMBER.
AND AGAIN, THOSE ARE BROKEN OUT BY PAYROLL AND NON PAYROLL.
AND THEN THE LAST CHART THAT WE'VE ADDED IS JUST A YEAR OVER YEAR COMPARISON.
SO IT LOOKS AT DECEMBER OF 2021 COMPARED TO DECEMBER 2022.
AND AGAIN, THESE ARE ALL EXPENDITURES BROKEN OUT ONCE AGAIN BY PAYROLL AND NON PAYROLL.
I'D BE HAPPY TO ADDRESS ANY QUESTIONS YOU HAVE.
QUESTIONS FROM ANY OF THE BOARD COMMITTEE MEMBERS? LET US TAKE JUST A SECOND HERE TO LOOK THROUGH THIS REAL QUICKLY AND THEN WE MIGHT HAVE A QUESTION.
MR. CHAIR? YES, MS. GRIFFIN. WHAT WAS THE INTENT FOR THE THREE NEW CHARTS? WHAT ARE WE TRYING TO EXPLAIN OR SEE OR SHOW? JUST TO GIVE A DIFFERENT WAY TO LOOK AT THE FINANCIAL PICTURE.
I THINK SOMETIMES SOME OF THE INFORMATION WE PRESENT IS VERY DETAILED.
BUT ALL THE SAME NUMBERS YOU'RE ACCUSTOMED TO RECEIVING ARE STILL PRESENTED.
FOR YOU, THIS WAS JUST AN ADDITION TO IT THIS YEAR, THIS MONTH.
MR. BEACH. ANY QUESTION? MR. BEACH. YES. NOT REALLY A QUESTION AS MUCH AS A COMMENT.
[00:05:04]
BUDGET THAT'S 85, 86% PAYROLL.AND WHEN PAYROLL COMES IN, IT LOOKS LIKE $12 MILLION DOLLARS, $14 MILLION DOLLARS, 26 MILLION DOLLARS WHEN IT COMES IN WAY UNDER BUDGET THEN IT LEADS TO SOME DIFFERENT NUMBERS.
AND SO WE SEE THE IMPACT OF IT REALLY TURNS OUT AT THE END OF THE DAY, IT COMES OUT IN THE FUND BALANCE, WHEREAS WE THOUGHT WE MIGHT HAVE A 12 TO 20 MILLION DOLLAR DEFICIT, WE WOUND UP WITH A 10 TO 14 MILLION DOLLAR POSITIVE ADDITION TO THE GENERAL FUND.
SO REALLY, JUST AND I KNOW YOU GIVE US SOME INFORMATION IN OUR WEEKLY BI WITH RESPECT TO WHERE WE'RE TRENDING TODAY. SO I JUST HAVE A MAYBE A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS THAT I WOULD FOLLOW UP WITH YOU, DR.
THE TREND OF FILLING VACANCIES OR BECOMING FULLY STAFFED.
HAS IT CHANGED ANY IN THE PAST 12 MONTHS OR ARE WE RIGHT WHERE WE WERE AT THIS TIME LAST YEAR WITH RESPECT TO NOT BEING ABLE TO FILL ALL OF OUR POSITIONS? UNFORTUNATELY, WE ARE IN THE SAME LINE AS WE WERE LAST YEAR OF VACANCIES, WHICH IS A RECORD NUMBER.
NEGATIVELY THAT'S NOT GOOD FOR MEETING ALL STUDENTS NEEDS SO. SO WHEN YOU SAY WE'RE IN THE SAME SPOT, ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT HEADCOUNT OR ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT DOLLAR COUNT? BOTH. WE ARE VERY SIMILAR TO THE NUMBER OF FTES THAT ARE VACANT, WHICH IS ALSO VERY SIMILAR TO THE NUMBER OF DOLLAR AMOUNT.
AND SO THAT ADDITIONAL HANDOUT, IF YOU WERE TO LOOK AT THAT AND I'LL PULL THAT UP RIGHT NOW, THIS TIES INTO OUR MONTHLY FINANCIAL REPORT AND AS MS. DAVENPORT NOTED AS WE APPROACHED FISCAL YEAR AND WE WILL CONTINUE TO GIVE YOU A MONTHLY UPDATE, NOT JUST IN HERE BUT IN BUDGET WORKSHOPS.
AND SO, MR. MILLER, IF IT'S OKAY WITH YOU, I WILL GO THROUGH THIS INFORMATION WHICH MAY ANSWER SOME OF YOUR QUESTIONS ON THE VACANCIES.
YEAH. I GUESS I THINK WHAT'S GOING TO BE HELPFUL TO US AT THE END OF THE DAY IS AS WE GO, JUST TIE EVERYTHING BACK TO THE GENERAL FUND.
AND, YOU KNOW, IF WE BUDGETED A $30 MILLION OR $20 MILLION DOLLAR DEFICIT, BUT WE'VE SAVED THAT MONEY, WE'RE NOT IT'S NOT GOING TO BE SPENT BECAUSE WE CAN'T FILL THE POSITIONS.
THEN JUST KIND OF GIVE US A LITTLE BIT OF A MOVING BAR SO WE KNOW WHAT IMPACT, IF ANY, IT WILL HAVE POSITIVE OR NEGATIVE ON THE FUND BALANCE, JUST AS IT BECOMES APPARENT.
YOU CAN'T FORESEE EVERYTHING HAPPEN BETWEEN NOW AND JUNE 30TH.
BUT THE TREND LINES, IF THEY DON'T CHANGE, THEN WE OUGHT TO BE ABLE TO GET PRETTY CLOSE.
WE OBVIOUSLY MANAGE THE BUTTON, MANAGE THE BUDGET.
YOU, OBVIOUSLY MANAGE THE BUDGET.
WE JUST ARE VERY INTERESTED AND YOU KNOW, THE FINAL OUTCOME.
SO FOR US OR FOR ME, LET ME SPEAK FOR MYSELF.
FOR ME, IT'S VERY IT SHOULD BE ABLE TO TRACK A LITTLE BIT TO THAT.
YOU KNOW, WE THOUGHT WE WERE GOING TO MAYBE HIT THE FUND BALANCE FOR 22 MILLION, BUT WE'VE SAVED 26 MILLION IN PAYROLL EXPENDITURES. SO NOW IT LOOKS LIKE MAYBE A $4 MILLION DOLLAR ADD.
YES, SIR. IF YOU CATCH MY DRIFT WITH THAT. WE WILL.
AND IF YOU CAN DO THAT WITH THESE CHARTS AND THESE GRAPHS, JUST LIKE TODAY, WE'RE LOOKING AT THIS AND I DON'T REMEMBER WHAT OUR DEFICIT BUDGET NUMBER WAS WHEN WE STARTED.
DOES ANYBODY REMEMBER WHAT WE BUDGETED AS A DEFICIT BUDGET? YES, SIR. SO FOR THIS FISCAL YEAR, WE HAVE ADOPTED REVENUE BUDGET OF $510 MILLION.
AND OUR ADOPTED EXPENDITURE BUDGET OF $565 MILLION.
[00:10:08]
IF THAT TREND CONTINUES OF A MEASURE OF WHERE WE'LL LAND, IF WE WERE TO IMPROVE AS FAR AS VACANCIES.AND SO WE HAVE A WINDOW AND THAT WINDOW WILL NARROW AS WE PROGRESS TO THE END OF THE YEAR.
EXACTLY. SO IT COULD BE A $9 MILLION DEFICIT, INSTEAD OF A 30 MILLION? THAT'S 100% CORRECT.
YES SIR. OKAY. SO I THINK THAT'S A PIECE OF GOOD INFORMATION.
AGAIN, IT WILL MOVE EVERY MONTH.
BUT WE'VE GOT A PRETTY SOLID TREND LINE OF NOT BEING ABLE TO FILL THOSE VACANCIES.
SO IT'S PROBABLY NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.
YES, SIR. SO I THINK THAT WOULD BE HELPFUL TO US.
THANK YOU, JOHNNY. I KNOW THAT YOU AND I HAVE HAD THAT CONVERSATION ABOUT THAT THE OTHER DAY, ABOUT THERE'S NOT A SET FORMULA TO USE TO MANAGE THAT. AND I KNOW THAT MR. GLICK HAS GOT SOME QUESTIONS BECAUSE THIS HAS BEEN A CONCERN OF HIS ALSO AND ABOUT WHERE THOSE FIGURES ARE GOING TO FALL BECAUSE IT SEEMS LIKE WE'VE MISSED IT PRETTY HEAVY THERE LAST YEAR, I BELIEVE IT WAS FOR SURE.
BUT WITH THAT BEING SAID, LARRY, IF YOU WANT TO GO AHEAD AND SPEAK.
THANK YOU, SIR. MS. DAVENPORT.
JUST A MINUTE BEFORE WE TRANSIT, CAN I JUST ASK THE QUESTION WHY YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT THE NUMBERS AND THE VACANCIES? SURE.
WHEN WE LOOK AT THE CHARTS, EVEN WITH THE NEW CHARTS THAT YOU'VE GIVEN US, THE NEW INFORMATION, WE CAN SEE WHAT THE YEAR TO DATE FIGURE IS FOR PERSONNEL. YES MA'AM.
OKAY. BUT WE DON'T KNOW HOW MANY EMPLOYEES THAT WAS BASED ON.
AND THEN WE CAN SEE THAT IT'S DECREASED.
SO THAT MEANS WE HAVE VACANCIES.
BUT ANOTHER PIECE OF INFORMATION IS WHEN WE'RE LOOKING AT HOW THE MONEY IS CHANGING, HOW MANY FULL TIME POSITIONS IS THAT? HOW MANY IS, YOU KNOW, IS IT PARAS AND ALL OF THOSE KINDS OF THINGS.
NOT THAT WE ARE ON THE BUDGET BECAUSE WE HAVE VACANCIES, BUT WHAT DOES THAT REALLY MEAN? YES, MA'AM. THANK YOU.
YES SIR. I THINK, FROM THIS POINT ON.
LARRY GO AHEAD. COULD YOU BRING UP THIS PAGE ON THE SCREEN THAT WE JUST GOT TODAY? IT'S OUR PAGE 10.
THE HANDOUTS AT THE OKAY. OKAY.
FIRST OF ALL, THANK YOU FOR PROVIDING THIS.
I THINK THIS IS SOMETHING THAT WE NEED TO SEE VERY OFTEN.
YEAH. AND THE MORE WE SEE THIS, THE MORE IT LOOKS LIKE YOU'LL BE ABLE TO TIGHTEN DOWN THE NUMBERS AS WE GET TO TALKING ABOUT POTENTIAL RAISES AND THINGS OF THAT NATURE, WHICH WILL COME ON OUR PLATE.
SO TODAY, FOR EXAMPLE, WE'RE GOING TO BE TALKING ABOUT A $9 MILLION DOLLAR EXPENSE AND A $6 MILLION.
9 MILLION FOR TRACKS AND 6 MILLION FOR HVAC.
I'M MAKING AN ASSUMPTION THAT THAT'S ALREADY IN HERE.
GREAT QUESTION, MR. GLICK AND CLARIFICATION POINT, THE ONLY ITEMS REFLECTED IN HERE ARE WHAT THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES ARE APPROVING THROUGH TODAY'S DATE.
SO THE TRACKS OF THAT EIGHT PLUS MILLION.
THAT SO IT'S IF WE'RE GOING TO SEE THIS AT THESE MEETINGS BEFORE THIS, THEY'RE ON HERE FOR APPROVAL.
AND MY ASSUMPTION IS THEY WILL BE APPROVED.
THAT'S IF WE CAN SOMEHOW APPEND THIS AND MAYBE HAVE A FOOTNOTE ON THIS.
SO THIS REALLY, IF I'M GOING TO LOOK AT IT, I'M GOING TO SAY, OKAY, WE MAY BE 18 MILLION SHORT.
WELL, IF I ADD ANOTHER 15 MILLION NOW ON THE BEST SCENARIO, I'M 33.
WE WILL, AND THAT FEEDBACK WILL ALLOW US TO MAKE THOSE TWEAKS AS WE MOVE FORWARD.
JUST FOR THE CLARITY OF WHAT YOU'RE SEEING AND UNDERSTANDING OF IT.
YEAH. BUT MY ASSUMPTION IS SO EVERYTHING OTHER THAN WHAT WE'RE GOING TO SEE TODAY IS IN HERE.
SO WHAT OTHER SURPRISES MIGHT EITHER OF YOU EXPECT ON EITHER SIDE AT THIS POINT? AND THAT'S WHERE I THINK THE CONCERN OF THE WHOLE BOARD IS THAT WE SOMETIMES GET INTO MAY AND JUNE THINKING ONE NUMBER, AND THEN WHEN WE GET TO CAFR IN NOVEMBER OR DECEMBER, IT'S VERY DIFFERENT.
SO THE CLOSER THIS CAN GET, I THINK THE BETTER WE'LL ALL BELIEVE.
[00:15:02]
AND I HAVE INFORMATION, SOME UP HERE IN UNKNOWNS THAT WE STILL DO NOT KNOW TO THIS DAY.YOU KNOW, HISTORICALLY, OUR REVENUE HAS NOT FLUCTUATED.
WE'VE BEEN PRETTY MUCH SPOT ON SINCE 2018 WITH EVERYTHING WE BUDGET FROM LOCAL, STATE AND FEDERAL.
THERE'S NOT BEEN LARGE FLUCTUATIONS OF THAT.
YOU KNOW, ADA IS STILL TRENDING WHERE IT WAS LAST YEAR.
IT'S BEEN LOWER THAN OUR HISTORICALS ON THE ATTENDANCE AVERAGE.
STATE FUNDING DUE TO CENSUS UPDATES, THAT'S SOMETHING WE HAVE NO CONTROL OVER.
INTEREST INCOME, AS WE'VE SEEN, THERE WAS A POSITIVE TO THE BUDGET THERE WITH WHAT THE RATES AND WHAT WE'RE SEEING IN THE MARKET, THERE'S POTENTIAL THAT WE MAY HAVE MORE INTEREST INCOME NOW, NOT AN ADDITIONAL 8 MILLION, BUT WE MAY HAVE ANOTHER COUPLE OF MILLION COME MAY.
BUT THAT IS SOMETHING WE'RE HAVING TO SEE WHAT THE MARKET DOES AND WHAT THOSE INVESTMENTS ARE DOING.
AND DOES THIS REFLECT ALSO THE HIT WE HEARD ABOUT, I GUESS, IT WAS LAST MONTH AND THE SHARS? YES, SIR. SO THAT'S ALREADY IN HERE? YES, SIR. ANYTHING THE BOARD HAS APPROVED AND GOING AND POTENTIALLY GOING TO APPROVE TODAY'S DATE IS REFLECTED IN HERE.
SO THE SHARS AND INTEREST INCOME IS REFLECTED.
PERFECT. SO AS WE NOTED IN THE FUND BALANCE DISCUSSIONS THAT HAVE CAME UP, YOU KNOW, OUR LAST AND NOT JUST OUR LAST, EVERY SCHOOL DISTRICT'S LAST TRUE 12 MONTH OPERATIONAL YEAR WAS 2017-18 FOR US, 18-19, WE SWITCHED OUR FISCAL YEAR. WE HAD TWO LESS MONTHS OF OPERATIONS WHICH ADDED $36 MILLION DOLLARS TO THE FUND BALANCE.
THAT'S WHEN WE MOVED FROM A SEPTEMBER ONE START DATE TO A JULY ONE START DATE.
THEN IN 19-20, WE HAD THE HOUSE BILL 3 FUNDING INCREASE.
AND THEN IF YOU ALL REMEMBER, IN MARCH OF 2020, WE SHUT DOWN FOR ONE FOURTH OF THE YEAR.
NO SUB EXPENDITURES, NO OVERTIME PAY, NO EXTRA DUTY PAY.
WE HAD A HIRING FREEZE. WE DID NOT FILL POSITIONS THAT WERE VACATED.
2021, WE ONLY SPENT 3 MILLION MORE THAN THE PRIOR YEAR AND WE HAD THE 12% OPERATIONAL REDUCTION.
WE HAD THE LOWEST FUND BALANCE OUT IN TEN PLUS YEARS.
AND THEN WE ALSO HAD THE ADA, THE AVERAGE DAILY ATTENDANCE HOLD HARMLESS CONTINUE OVER THAT YEAR.
21-22 AGAIN, WE HAD THE REVENUE PROJECTIONS RIGHT IN ALIGNMENT WHERE THE BUDGET TEAM AND ALL OF US PROJECTED THE ADA HOLD HARMLESS APPLIED THAT'S WHERE WE HAD A RECORD NUMBER OF VACANCIES.
WE HAD A RECORD NUMBER OF EMPLOYEES, NOT JUST HERE BUT ACROSS THE STATE APRIL, MAY, AND JUNE HAD VACATED THOSE POSITIONS AND WE ALSO HAD SUPPLY CHAIN ISSUES. AND SO AS YOU'LL SEE HERE SHORTLY, WE ACTUALLY SPENT LESS IN PAYROLL IN LAST FISCAL YEAR THAN THE YEAR BEFORE.
AND SO YOU WILL SEE THAT HERE SHORTLY.
SO OUR HISTORICAL GENERAL FUND REVENUE OPERATIONS.
YOU CAN SEE IN PAYROLL, WE SPENT ROUGHLY 12 MILLION LESS IN 21, 22 THAN WE DID IN THE PRIOR YEAR.
AND THIS HAS BEEN SHARED MANY TIMES THROUGH OUR BUDGET WORKSHOPS AND IN THE BOARD INSIGHTS.
BUT WE ACTUALLY SPENT LESS LAST FISCAL YEAR THAN THE YEAR BEFORE.
AND SO THAT $10 MILLION DOLLAR LESS CONTRIBUTED THAT $14 MILLION DOLLAR FUND BALANCE ADD .
AGAIN, WE HAD THE ADA HARMLESS RECORD RESIGNATIONS.
OTHERWISE OUR NON PAYROLL BUDGET WOULD HAVE BEEN MORE.
AND THEN AS MS. GRIFFIN SPOKE TO EARLIER, YOU CAN SEE AS OF JUNE 28TH, 2022, WE HAD 294 MORE RESIGNATIONS THAN 2020 AND THEN THAT INCREASED EVEN ANOTHER 203 MORE.
SO IN JUNE 23RD, 2020, THERE WERE 428 RESIGNATIONS, JUNE 22ND, 519, JUNE 28TH, 2022 635 . I'M SORRY 722 AND IT BROKE DOWN BY PROFESSIONAL AND PARA AND AS MR. MILLER NOTED EARLIER IN THAT QUESTION OF MR. BEACH, WE ARE SEEING THAT SAME TREND RIGHT NOW.
AND SO WE WILL SHARE THAT OUT EACH MONTH ALSO.
[00:20:03]
MR. RINGO. MR. BEACH, CAN I INTERJECT HERE? SURE. OVER ON THE REVENUE SIDE AND YOU'VE MENTIONED THE ADA HOLD HARMLESS, APPROXIMATELY WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN OUR CALCULATED NUMBER VERSUS THE HOLD HARMLESS NUMBER IF THEY WERE TO NOT GRANT THAT FOR THE LAST PERIOD? SO 2020, THE FISCAL YEAR 21, I SHOULD SAY, THAT WAS FOR THE WHOLE ACADEMIC YEAR.RIGHT. AND SO THAT WAS ROUGHLY, IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY, $15 MILLION DOLLARS.
GRADING PERIODS CAN BE NINE WEEKS OR SIX WEEKS.
ATTENDANCE PERIODS ARE SIX WEEKS ONLY.
AND SO THAT WAS ONLY A FEW MILLION DOLLARS, NOT THAT LARGE OF IMPACT.
AND THE STATE HAD TOLD US, AS WE SHARED WITH THE BOARD, BE PREPARED TO NOT HAVE THAT IN THE FUTURE.
SO IT WAS ONLY APPLIED FOR TWO SIX WEEKS.
SO WE ACTUALLY MADE A LITTLE LESS THAN 2 MILLION.
THE DECREASE, ABOUT $2 MILLION DOLLARS LAST FISCAL YEAR IN TOTAL REVENUE.
OUR CURRENT ADA VERSUS THE HOLD HARMLESS LEVEL WE HAVE BEEN OPERATING UNDER, WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE THERE? SO WE BUILT OUR BUDGET THIS YEAR ON 47,880 ADA WE'RE TRENDING AROUND 47,600 RIGHT NOW.
SO A COUPLE OF HUNDRED SHORT? A COUPLE OF HUNDRED SHORT AND THROUGH THE SPRING, THAT NUMBER TYPICALLY DECLINES, MEANING IT'S GOING TO BE YES, SIR. SOMEBODY DID A MILLION.
ABOUT. 14 MILLION? A MILLION FOUR.
IT'S ABOUT. YES, IT'S ABOUT 14.
SO THAT'S THE POTENTIAL IMPACT MAYBE FOR THE REST OF THE YEAR IF THE HOLD HARMLESS IS NOT CONTINUED.
IF FOURTH, FIFTH, SIX WEEKS ATTENDANCE WERE TO INCREASE, THAT COULD MAKE UP FOR THAT, TOO.
JUST ANOTHER NON CONTROLLABLE.
AND IF YOU'VE HEARD THEM SPEAK AT ANY TRAININGS, THEY WILL SAY SCHOOL FINANCE.
THE LAST FOUR YEARS FOR SCHOOL DISTRICTS HAS BEEN YOU'RE FLYING THEIR PLANE AND TRULY TRYING TO BUILD IT AND HOLD EVERYTHING TOGETHER WITHOUT KNOWING WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN DUE TO WHAT'S HAPPENING WITH COVID AS WE'VE SEEN THIS YEAR WITH THE FLU AND ATTENDANCE RATES, YOU KNOW, THIS DOESN'T REALLY TALK ABOUT DOLLARS AND CENTS, BUT IT DOES GO WITH THIS.
AND THE CONCERN THAT I HAVE IS, ONE, YOU KNOW, WE'RE DRIVING TO TRY TO BECOME AN A DISTRICT.
AND WHEN I GET THE BOARD INSIGHT AND I SEE FROM THE HR SIDE OF IT ABOUT THE HIGH PRIORITY THAT WE'RE REALLY NEEDING IN THOSE CAMPUSES IN THE CURRICULUM.
AND IT BOTHERS ME THAT ON THE DOLLAR SIDE OF IT, IF WE'RE DOING ARE WE DOING ANY KIND OF SIGNING BONUS TO TRY TO GET THESE FOLKS? BECAUSE IF YOU'RE GOING TO TRY TO DRIVE TO BE AN A DISTRICT, YOU NEED PEOPLE IN TEACHING THAT ARE IN THOSE CLASSROOMS THAT CAN REALLY HELP.
YOU KNOW, WE'RE USING EVERYBODY WE CAN TO FILL IN THOSE CLASSROOMS. AND SO IF WE WANT TO KNOW WHY WE'RE PROBABLY NOT GETTING THERE, THAT'S PROBABLY I THINK ONE OF THE BIGGER REASONS IS THAT RIGHT THERE? YEAH. SO I DIDN'T KNOW IF THERE IS ANYTHING THAT WE'RE DOING AS FAR AS A SIGNING BONUS.
MAYBE MR. BROWN CAN TELL US IF THEY'RE DOING THAT.
AND SO AT THIS POINT OF THE YEAR, THEY'RE NOT ABLE TO LEAVE.
BUT RIGHT NOW, BECAUSE TEACHERS BEING UNDER CONTRACT IN OTHER SCHOOL DISTRICTS AND UNABLE TO BREAK THOSE CONTRACTS SIMILAR TO TEACHERS BEING IN OUR DISTRICT AND NOT ABLE TO LEAVE, THAT SIGN ON INCENTIVE IS NOT IN PLACE AT THIS MOMENT.
YEAH, IN MY PERSONAL OPINION, I WOULDN'T CARE FOR THAT FIGURE THAT $14 MILLION DOLLARS DROPPED IF WE COULD GET THOSE HIGH PRIORITY TEACHERS HERE THAT WE NEED TO FILL THOSE CLASSROOMS TO DO THE JOB THAT WE NEED TO FOR OUR STUDENTS.
SO YES SIR. SO THAT'S JUST MY PARTICULAR POINT.
SO ANYWAY, ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? ANY OTHER? OKAY. THANK YOU, MR. RINGO.
I'M NOT DONE YET. IF IT'S OKAY, A FEW MORE SLIDES.
BRING IT ON. SO JUST TO HIGHLIGHT THE PAYROLL THROUGH THE YEARS, I WANTED TO NOTE THAT FOR THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES GOING DOWN THAT COLUMN, JUST TO HIGHLIGHT HOW THAT DECREASE IN OUR NON PAYROLL. AND EVERY CHANGE IN OUR BUDGET HAS CAME TO THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES BY LINE ITEM FOR APPROVALS EACH FISCAL YEAR AND WHEN THOSE WERE PRESENTED TO THE BOARD.
THIS IS A SLIDE DIRECTLY FROM THE TEXAS EDUCATION AGENCY.
SO THOSE EXPENDITURE FLUCTUATIONS THAT WE HAVE SHARED.
AND CAN YOU TALK ABOUT NOT JUST HAPPENING IN GARLAND ISD, THIS IS A REFLECTION ACROSS THE STATE.
[00:25:06]
THEY KNOW THAT PUBLIC SCHOOL DISTRICTS HAVE HAD THESE LARGE FUND BALANCE ADDS AGAIN, NOT TO REVENUE FLUCTUATIONS, BUT DUE TO EXPENDITURE FLUCTUATIONS AND DECREASES FROM PRIOR YEARS. DISTRICTS DUE TO THE SHUTDOWN, DUE TO VACANCIES ARE NOT SPENDING THAT MONEY.AND SO IF YOU LOOK AT 21-22, TEA HAS AN EXAMPLE, SHOWS THAT GREEN BAR GRAPH BELOW ZERO.
THEY KNOW THAT IS DUE TO SAVES FOR PUBLIC SCHOOLS ACROSS TEXAS AND THEN THEY SEE ARE AT 22-23 WE'RE ALSO GOING TO PROJECT BECAUSE OF VACANCIES THERE'S GOING TO BE THESE SAVES AND SO TEA HAS NOTED TO ALL PUBLIC SCHOOL DISTRICTS TO BE PREPARED TO USE FUND BALANCE IN THE COMING YEARS.
AND SO THEY'VE MOVED THOSE SAVINGS FROM 21, 22 AND 22, 23, THAT GREEN BAR GRAPH TO THE NEXT THREE FISCAL YEARS AND TOLD THE DISTRICTS BE PREPARED TO USE YOUR FUND BALANCE TO BALANCE YOUR BUDGETS.
AND THIS IS A TEA GRAPH, NOT A GARLAND ISD MADE GRAPH.
IT IS ACROSS THE STATE OF TEXAS DUE TO THE FLUCTUATIONS AND DECREASE IN EXPENDITURES.
WOULD THAT EVEN OUT IF THEY BASE IT ON ENROLLMENT INSTEAD OF ADA? IF THEY BASED IT FUNDING ON ENROLLMENT, IT WOULD BE A LARGE INCREASE TO PUBLIC SCHOOL FUNDING IN TEXAS.
AND SO THIS IS NOT BASED OFF ANY CHANGE IN STATUTE.
THIS IS BASED OFF CURRENT STATUTE ONLY.
OKAY. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? AND THEN PAYROLL.
DO YOU HAVE QUESTIONS? YES, SIR.
MAYBE I DIDN'T QUITE UNDERSTAND AS YOU WERE EXPLAINING THIS.
IS THIS FOR THE STATE? THIS IS US? THIS IS AN EXAMPLE THE STATE USES.
THIS IS NOT GARLAND ISD. THIS IS NOBODY.
THIS IS NOT REFLECTIVE OF OUR BUDGET.
THIS IS NOBODY THE STATE IS USING THIS AS AN EXAMPLE OF ANY DISTRICT IN THE STATE OF TEXAS.
FOR GARLAND, IT ALMOST LOOKS LIKE IT'S IN LINE WITH OURS.
BUT THIS IS NOT REFLECTIVE OF GARLAND ISD.
I THINK AT ONE POINT IN THE LAST LEGISLATIVE SESSION, IT WAS ONE OF THE I THINK THE SENATORS TALKED ABOUT THE IF YOU ADDED UP ALL THE FUND BALANCES OF ALL THE DISTRICTS, IT WAS IN SOME VERY INCREDIBLE NUMBER, RIGHT? YEAH. IS THAT WHAT THEY'RE GETTING TO? IS THAT WHAT YOU THINK THIS IS COMING FROM? YES. AND I THINK THE STATE IS ALSO MISLEADING WHEN THEY STATE THAT AT THE STATE LEVEL, BECAUSE IF YOU WERE TO, THE STATE SAYS WE MUST HAVE A MINIMUM OF THREE MONTHS OF FUND BALANCE. WELL, IF YOU JUST TAKE DALLAS ISD'S FUND BALANCE, FORT WORTH ISD'S FUND BALANCE, GARLAND ISD FUND BALANCE AND SOME OTHER LARGE DISTRICTS IN THE FORT WORTH AREA, WE WOULD EXCEED THE FUND BALANCE FOR THE RAINY DAY FUND AT THE STATE LEVEL.
BUT THE MESSAGE BEING THAT WHEN DISTRICTS HAVE MORE MONEY THAN THE STATE, IT COULD CREATE CONCERN FOR THE STAKEHOLDER TO THINK, WHY DO THEY HAVE SO MUCH MONEY AND IT NEEDS TO BE SPENT. IS THERE ANYTHING THAT YOU'VE HEARD FROM YOUR SOURCES THAT'S BEING TALKED ABOUT AS THE LEGISLATIVE SESSION KICKS OFF ABOUT FUND BALANCES? ACTUALLY, THERE'S BEEN COMPARED TO PRIOR LEGISLATIVE SESSIONS, NOT AS MUCH DISCUSSION.
THE DISCUSSION BEING WITH THE TEACHER SHORTAGE AND NOT JUST TEACHERS.
THIS IS THERE'S A SHORTAGE ACROSS PRETTY MUCH ALL AREAS OF PUBLIC EDUCATION ABOUT THE NEED TO INCREASE THE FUNDING FOR PUBLIC EDUCATION AND THE NEED TO INCREASE FUNDING FOR THOSE CORE FOUR TEACHERS, COUNSELORS, NURSES, AND LIBRARIANS.
BUT DISCUSSIONS ABOUT FUND BALANCE, THE MESSAGE BEING FROM TEA STILL BEING PREPARED TO USE FUND BALANCE, BUT THE STATE REPS, THERE'S DISCUSSIONS ABOUT INCREASING FUNDING. THANK YOU.
GO AHEAD MR. RINGO. THANK YOU.
THIS IS JUST OUR PAYROLL OPERATIONAL HISTORY.
VISUALLY, IT LETS PEOPLE SEE HOW THE BLUE IS THE PAYROLL OPERATIONAL BUDGET.
THE ACTUAL IS THE ORANGE LINE.
AND IT JUST ALLOWS EVERYONE TO SEE.
IN 18-19 WHY IS THERE THAT DIP AGAIN, THAT'S OUR CHANGE IN FISCAL YEAR.
WE KNOW WHAT WE SPENT THROUGH SIX MONTHS.
WE HAVE SIX MORE MONTHS TO GO.
WE ARE STILL IT IS A CRYSTAL BALL BASED OFF TRENDS.
IT'S BASED ON TRENDS. WE'VE DISCUSSED THESE REVENUE FLUCTUATIONS.
BUT AGAIN, IT IS BASED OFF TRENDS.
WE LOOK AT WHAT WE DO MONTH TO MONTH, PRE-COVID, WHAT WE'VE DONE MONTH TO MONTH POST COVID.
AND SO AS MS. DAVENPORT NOTED EARLIER, YOU CAN SEE ON 21, 22 VERSUS 22, 23, THE BLUE LINE REPRESENTING 2022.
ON PAYROLL WE HAVE ALREADY EXPENSED ABOUT 10 MILLION MORE THAN THE PRIOR YEAR, SIX MONTHS IN.
[00:30:04]
NON PAYROLL, ROUGHLY 500,000 MORE THAN THE PRIOR YEAR.SO WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? SO GOING TO THE NEXT PAGE, WHAT I HIGHLIGHT HERE, EXPENDITURES THROUGH DECEMBER, IT'S CIRCLED IN RED.
YOU CAN SEE WE HAVE SPENT ROUGHLY 10 MILLION MORE IN OUR BUDGET FOR THE ENTIRE YEAR.
AND SO 245 THROUGH DECEMBER OF LAST YEAR, 255 MILLION THROUGH DECEMBER OF THIS YEAR.
AND SO AT THE END OF LAST YEAR, OUR ACTUAL EXPENDITURES $496 MILLION DOLLARS.
AND YOU CAN SEE OUR EXPENDITURE BUDGET WAS 533 MILLION.
AGAIN, THE MISS IS NOT DUE TO REVENUE MISCALCULATIONS, IT IS DUE TO ALL THOSE VACANCIES AND ITEMS NOT BEING EXPENSED ON NON PAYROLL DUE TO A BUDGET MANAGER NOT SPENDING THEIR BUDGET. WHETHER THAT BE A PRINCIPAL DIRECTOR, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OR SUPPLY CHAIN ISSUES.
AND WE HAD NOTED AT THE END OF LAST FISCAL YEAR IN THAT FINAL BUDGET PRESENTATION, THERE WAS ROUGHLY, I BELIEVE, ABOUT 4 MILLION IN SUPPLY CHAIN ISSUES THAT WERE NOT RECEIVED UPON JUST DUE TO ITEMS NOT BEING ABLE TO BE MADE HERE OR GET HERE IN TIME.
THE NEXT KEY PIECE, AS YOU LOOK AT THIS OTHER USES, MR. GLICK SPOKE TO THIS EARLIER.
ANYTHING THAT WOULD BE APPROVED THROUGH TODAY, IT'S AN ADDITIONAL $6 MILLION DOLLARS.
SO IF WE ADD UP WHAT WE HAVE TRULY EXPENSED THROUGH TODAY AND WHAT THE BOARD HAS APPROVED THROUGH OTHER USES, WE HAVE SPENT ROUGHLY 16 MILLION MORE THAN LAST YEAR AT THIS POINT.
AND SO WE'VE ALREADY EXPENSED 16 MILLION MORE THAN LAST YEAR.
OUR FUND BALANCE ADD LAST YEAR WAS 14.6 MILLION.
SO IF YOU WERE JUST TO DOUBLE WHAT WE'VE EXPENSED THROUGH DECEMBER WITHOUT THE TRANSFER OUTS OR MULTIPLY THAT 555 MILLION TIMES TWO, YOU CAN SEE WHERE WE WOULD LAND COMPARED TO OUR POTENTIAL REVENUE BUDGET AT THIS TIME.
AND SO GOING TO THE SLIDE WE TALKED ABOUT EARLIER, BRIEFLY.
AGAIN ON TOP TOTAL REVENUES, WE HAVE BEEN PRETTY MUCH IN LINE WITH OUR REVENUE PROJECTIONS SINCE 2018-19 THAT AGAIN, WE BUDGET OUR REVENUE WHERE WE'VE EXPECTED AND WHERE IT SHOULD HIT VERSUS LEAVING ITEMS OUT.
TOTAL EXPENDITURE BUDGET, THAT'S WHAT'S APPROVED TO BE EXPENSED.
AND AGAIN, WE HAVE NEVER IN GARLAND ISD EVER EXPENSED 100%.
THAT'S NOT JUST THE LAST FIVE YEARS, BUT THAT'S WHAT THE BOARD SAYS.
HERE'S THE PAYROLL BUDGET EXPENSE BUDGET.
BUT WE HAVE NEVER EXPENSED THAT DOLLAR AMOUNT.
WE WOULD STILL HAVE 25 MILLION IN PAYROLL SAVES WE DO NOT BELIEVE WE'RE GOING TO LAND THERE.
THE HIGH RANGE YOU CAN SEE WHERE IF WE REPEAT WHAT WE'VE DONE LAST YEAR AND WHAT WE LAST YEAR WE HAD 10.9 MILLION IN NON PAYROLL SAVES OF FUNDS NOT EXPENSED.
SO WE FOLLOW THAT SAME MODEL THIS YEAR AND WHERE WE'RE TRULY TRENDING FOR PAYROLL SAVES AND WHAT WE'VE TRANSFERRED OUT WITH BOARD APPROVAL FROM GENERAL FUND, THAT DEFICIT LANDING AROUND 18 MILLION.
MR. BEACH. MR. MILLER. MR. RINGO. THESE ARE GREAT CHARTS.
THANK YOU FOR THIS. I THINK IT'S GOING TO HELP US GOING FORWARD.
THE QUESTION I HAVE IS MAYBE A DUMB QUESTION.
I THINK IT'S GOING BACK TO THE PREVIOUS SLIDE.
DO WE THEN ADJUST THE ORIGINAL BUDGET UP OR DOES THAT EXPENSE NUMBER STAY THE SAME? IN OTHER WORDS, IF I'M LOOKING AT THIS AND I'M SAYING WE WERE WITHIN IF I LOOK AT THE END OF THE YEAR AND THE TOTAL EXPENSES WERE $500 MILLION AND WE SPENT 480.
SO WHAT I'M WONDERING IS, DO WE AMEND THAT BUDGET AS WE GO? OR DOES THAT ADOPTED BUDGET ALWAYS STAY WITH THAT NUMBER? IT IS AS THAT HAPPENS EVERY MONTH.
THERE ARE CROSS FUNCTION TRANSFERS.
THAT COMES BACK TO THE BOARD BECAUSE WE HAVE TO HAVE THE BOARD ADOPTS THE BUDGET BY FUNCTION LEVEL.
[00:35:10]
DOCUMENT WHERE THE BOARD APPROVES OUR AMENDMENTS AND TRANSFERS.TRANSFERS FROM FUNCTIONS DON'T IMPACT THE OVERALL BUDGET, BUT WHEN WE HAVE TO INCREASE IT, IT DOES.
OKAY. SO I GUESS THAT'S WHAT I'M TRYING TO GET AT.
ONCE WE GET TO THE END OF THE YEAR, IF WE SEE NON-PAYROLL SAVES COULD BE $11 MILLION DOLLARS.
DOES THAT COMPARE TO THAT NUMBER OR WAS THE STARTING POINT ADJUSTED TO GET TO THIS NUMBER? IF WE ADD EXPENSES, THE STARTING POINT IS ADJUSTED AND INCREASES AND WE WOULD REFLECT THAT THE MONTH THAT HAPPENS TO GET TO THAT NUMBER.
OKAY. SO THEN IF I WERE TO ASK YOU TO DATE, THEN I'LL MAKE UP NUMBERS BECAUSE I'M NOT ASKING YOU, BUT I'M JUST TRYING TO GET THE THEORY DOWN.
IF LET'S SAY WE SPENT 250 MILLION YEAR TO DATE, AND THEN OUR BUDGET WHEN WE STARTED WAS 250, BUT WE SAVED 24 FOR PAYROLL.
BUT I KNOW WE SPEND ANOTHER 20 FOR NON PAYROLL ITEMS. WHEN I LOOK AT THE SAVES ON PAYROLL, NON PAYROLL SAVES AM I REALLY SEEING WHERE WE STARTED FROM VERSUS WHERE WE ENDED OR I'M SEEING THE ADJUSTED NUMBER THAT ONCE WE APPROVED IT AND ADJUSTED THAT NUMBER UP? AND YOU SEE WHAT I'M TRYING TO GET AT IS APPLES AND ORANGES TO ME TRYING TO FIGURE OUT FROM THE STARTING POINT.
HOW MUCH DID WE ADD AND HOW MUCH IS THE BOARD APPROVED TO ADD TO THE ORIGINAL EXPENSE STRUCTURE? AND IF THAT NUMBER I MEAN, TO ME, THAT NUMBER IS PRETTY SUBSTANTIAL AND IT'S THE NUMBER WE PROBABLY OUGHT TO THE BOARD OUGHT TO KNOW.
HEY, WE ADDED TO THAT ORIGINAL NON PAYROLL NUMBER X.
I THINK THAT WOULD BE GOOD TO KNOW.
SO LET ME TRY TO SWING AT YOUR PITCH.
YOU KNOW, WHAT I'M TRYING TO GET AT IS.
SO I'LL TRY TO GET A GOOD SWING HERE.
ALL RIGHT. SO IN ESSENCE, EVERY TIME WE DO A BUDGET AMENDMENT, IT COMES OUT OF THE CURRENT BUDGET, EVEN THOUGH, LIKE, LET'S SAY WE KNOW WHAT'S COMING OUT OF FUND BALANCE, RIGHT? SO THERE'S GOING TO BE PROJECTS THAT WE ANNOUNCE THAT WE KNOW ARE COMING OUT OF FUND BALANCE.
IT COMES OUT OF THE REAL TIME BUDGET.
AND BECAUSE THEN THE DEFICIT GETS BIGGER, THAT MONEY COMES OUT OF FUND BALANCE.
SO IN ESSENCE, WHENEVER HE SAYS THAT, LET'S GO BACK TO THE BEST CASE SCENARIO RIGHT THERE.
SO WE SAY THE BEST CASE SCENARIO THAT'S WITH RIGHT NOW SAVES.
WE'RE NOT ADDING ANYTHING FROM HERE.
SO THERE ARE SOME PROJECTS ON HERE THAT WE'RE GOING TO ADD ABOUT $9 MILLION DOLLARS, THAT LOW RANGE AND HIGH RANGE WILL MOVE NEXT TIME YOU SEE IT UP $9 MILLION DOLLARS.
BUT IT'S BECAUSE OF THAT ONE TIME EXPENDITURE, RIGHT? THE REAL QUESTION YOU WANT TO ASK IS WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE FROM THE ONE TIME EXPENDITURES THAT WE'VE BEEN DOING TO THE REOCCURRING EXPENDITURES THAT ARE GOING TO AFFECT OUR FUND BALANCE FROM HERE ON OUT? THOSE TWO THINGS WILL BE TOTALLY DIFFERENT.
I THINK THAT'S THE ESSENCE OF YOUR QUESTION.
YEAH, I MEAN, LIKE I SAID, IF WE DO A BUDGET AND IT SAYS THAT OUR NON PAYROLL EXPENSES ARE GOING TO BE WHAT'S AN ANNUAL NUMBER, SOMEBODY TELL ME WHAT THAT NUMBER WAS? SAY THAT AGAIN, THE EXPENSES FOR? THE NON PAYROLL ANNUAL EXPENSES ARE TYPICALLY WHAT, WHERE'S THAT CHART? THAT IS.
I HAD A HISTORY. IT WAS IT'S BACK HERE. IT'S EARLIER. THERE IT IS.
SO NON-PAYROLL. THE LAST TWO YEARS HAVE BEEN ROUGHLY 75 MILLION TYPICAL EXPENDITURES.
75 AND 2021 AND 76 MILLION IN 2022.
OKAY, SO IF WE ADD AND SAY WE BUDGETED THAT BACK IN JUNE OF LAST YEAR OR WHENEVER WE ADOPTED THE BUDGET, BUT THEN WE ADD 20 MILLION FOR HVAC OR OTHER THINGS.
SO IS THAT BUDGET NOW 90 MILLION? YES. YES, SIR.
SO TYPICALLY ON THE HVAC, WE'RE TRENCHING THAT UP FUND BALANCE.
IT'S NOT OFF OF THE 75 MILLION WE ORIGINALLY BUDGETED.
NO, THAT'S WHAT I'M GETTING AT.
YEP. IS WHAT IS THAT SAVE BASED OFF OF? YOU'RE SAYING CHANGE OF PERCENTAGE IS PRETTY DRASTICALLY.
YES. THE SAVE IS BASED OFF OF WHAT IS TRULY IN OUR NON-PAYROLL BUDGET.
[00:40:01]
SO THAT THERE'S NO, SAVE.THAT'S GOING TO BE 1 TO 1 EVERY TIME. ONE TO 1 EVERY TIME.
AND THERE WILL BE AN AMENDMENT TONIGHT THAT YOU SEE.
WHEN WE GET TO THAT, IT'S AN ACTION ITEM.
BUT THEN THERE'S ROUGHLY 2.8 MILLION THAT IS BEING PROPOSED FOR THE HVAC CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS AND CONTROLS UPGRADE THAT IS COMING FROM FUND BALANCE TO GET THAT PROJECT DONE.
AND THAT IS A ONE TIME EXPENDITURE, 1 TO 1.
SO LIKE WE MAKE ALL OF A SUDDEN, LET'S JUST SAY WE HAVE A $60 MILLION DOLLAR FUND BALANCE TAKE AWAY.
IT'S NOT ALL DUE TO STAFFING, IT'S ALL THESE OTHER PROJECTS.
TO ME, STAFFING IS PRETTY EASY BECAUSE WE DON'T SIT HERE AND ELECT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE YEAR TO DO A WHOLE BUNCH OF MOVES WITH OUR PAYROLL EXPENSE. WHAT WE DO HAVE IS FROM TIME TO TIME ON THE NON-PAYROLL SIDE, THE BOARD WILL HAVE THINGS THAT COME UP, WHETHER IT'S A FAILED CHILLER OR A FLOODED SCHOOL OR WHATEVER MAY HAPPEN.
WE GOT TO SPEND SOME MONEY TO FIX IT.
YES SIR. FORGET THE 90 MILLION.
FINE POINT IS, YES, SIR. SO LET'S SAY THE CAPITAL PROJECT IS APPROVED.
THIS 11 MILLION ON THE LOW END IS STILL NOT GOING TO OR THE HIGH END STILL NOT GOING TO CHANGE BECAUSE THAT IS DOLLARS THAT ALLOCATED ON THE NON-PAYROLL SIDE THAT DEPARTMENT MANAGERS MAY OR MAY NOT SPEND.
I'M SORRY IT TOOK ME SO LONG TO GET AROUND TO THAT, BUT I GOT IT NOW.
GOOD. AND WITH THAT, THAT'S OPEN UP TO COMMENTS QUESTIONS? ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? VERY GOOD REPORT. A LOT OF GOOD QUESTIONS WERE ASKED HERE.
THAT'S GOOD. WE NEEDED TO GET THAT INFORMATION.
THAT'LL BE HELPFUL AS WE MOVE ALONG IN OUR BUDGET PLANNING.
ALL RIGHT. GOING TO ITEM NUMBER 3, REVIEW THE DECEMBER 2022 TAX REPORT.
KRISTI COOPER. GOOD AFTERNOON, MR. BEACH, BOARD OF TRUSTEES, AND DR.
AS OF TODAY, WE'RE AT 94% COLLECTED.
IN THIS MONTH'S REPORT, THERE'S $128,000 OF REFUNDS, BUT MOST OF THAT IS DUPLICATE PAYMENTS CAUSED BY A LENDER OR A CLOSING TITLE OWNER CHANGE. I'LL BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.
ANY QUESTIONS ON THE TAX REPORT? GOOD JOB KRISTI. THANK YOU. MOVING ON TO ITEM NUMBER FOUR TO REVIEW THE SECOND QUARTER INVESTMENT REPORT.
YES. CHAIRMAN BEACH BOARD OF TRUSTEES.
DR. LOPEZ. WHAT YOU HAVE BEFORE YOU TONIGHT IS AN INFORMATION ITEM IS THE SECOND QUARTERLY INVESTMENT REPORT FOR THE 22-23 SCHOOL YEAR COVERING THE TIME PERIOD, OCTOBER 1 THROUGH DECEMBER 31, 2022.
AS OF DECEMBER 31, THE DISTRICT'S 455 MILLION WERE INVESTED IN 45% AGENCY SECURITIES, WITH THE REMAINING 55% IN THREE SEPARATE PUBLIC FUND INVESTMENT POOLS. TEXPOOL, LONESTAR AND TEXASCLASS.
THIS HAS BEEN PROVIDED SO THAT YOU CAN SEE THE UNDERLYING INVESTMENTS OF THE POOLS.
THE DAILY RATES FOR THIS QUARTER RANGE FROM 2.5% TO 4.25% OVER THE COURSE OF THE MONTH.
AND I'M SURE YOU'RE AWARE THE FED HAS INCREASED RATES EIGHT TIMES SINCE MARCH OF 2022.
AND THE FINAL DOCUMENT SHOWS THE INTEREST INCOME FOR ALL OF THE FUNDS FOR THIS FISCAL YEAR.
WE'VE EARNED 4.1 MILLION THUS FAR WITH 3.6 OF THAT IN THE GENERAL FUND.
AND IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, I'LL BE GLAD TO ANSWER THEM.
MR. MILLER. YEAH, JUST REAL QUICK.
IN DECEMBER, A SIZABLE JUMP IN THE INTEREST REVENUE.
YES. WAS THAT OR THERE'S SOME ONE TIME ANNUAL EVENTS AND WITHIN THAT OR IS THAT ALL REFLECTING ON THE INTEREST RATE? INTEREST RATE AND SOMETIMES THAT'S THE MATURING OF AGENCY SECURITIES DEPENDING ON HOW WE LADDER THEM OUT AND THAT'S MOST LIKELY THE REASON FOR THAT.
SO THERE COULD BE SOME SEASONAL? COULD BE. IMPACTED.
[00:45:02]
BUT TYPICALLY WE LADDER OUT ON A MONTHLY BASIS BASED ON OUR PAYROLLS.SO TYPICALLY I HAVE 30 MILLION COMING IN EVERY MONTH TO COVER PAYROLL TOWARD THE END OF THE MONTH.
GREAT. AND SO CURRENTLY WE HAVE OUR PORTFOLIO OUT TO DECEMBER OF THIS YEAR.
ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. THANK YOU.
MS. GRIFFIN. ANY QUESTION? ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? OKAY.
THANK YOU. THANK YOU MS. ROUNTREE. VERY GOOD REPORT.

PERFECT. ANY QUESTIONS? COMMENTS? SEEING NONE THEN WE'LL MOVE ON.
JAVIER FERNANDEZ. COMMITTEE CHAIR MR. BEACH, MEMBERS OF THE COMMITTEE, MEMBERS OF THE BOARD.
THIS IS AN ACTION ITEM, NOT CONSENT ACTION ITEM TO DISCUSS APPROVAL OF ATHLETIC TRACK AND FIELD IMPROVEMENTS AT VARIOUS CAMPUSES.
THE CAMPUSES THAT WE ARE SPEAKING ABOUT ARE, SO WE'VE GOT TRACK IMPROVEMENTS THAT WE HAVE AT.
EXCUSE ME, TURF IMPROVEMENTS AT HBJ, LAKEVIEW CENTENNIAL, NAAMAN FOREST, ROWLETT HIGH SCHOOL, SACHSE HIGH SCHOOL. LET ME SEE AND THERE IS LET ME GET THERE.
MUCH EASIER TO LOOK AT THAT WAY.
SO LOOKING AT FIELD TURF REPLACEMENTS, AT SIX FACILITIES.
WE'RE LOOKING AT RUNNING TRACK REPLACEMENTS AT WILLIAMS STADIUM.
AND WE'RE LOOKING AT SCOREBOARD REPLACEMENTS AT FOUR CAMPUSES.
THAT IS THE PROJECT THAT WE ARE LOOKING AT.
A LITTLE BIT OF HISTORY ABOUT OUR TRACKS.
EXCUSE ME. A LITTLE BIT OF HISTORY ABOUT OUR TRACKS AND TURFS.
SO THE WILLIAMS STADIUM TURF AND TRACK WAS ACTUALLY REPLACED IN MARCH OF 2013.
SO THAT'S A TEN YEAR OLD TRACK AND TURF.
THE TRACKS EXCUSE ME, THE TURFS FOR HBJ, LAKEVIEW CENTENNIAL, NAAMAN FOREST, NORTH GARLAND HIGH SCHOOL, ROWLETT HIGH SCHOOL, SACHSE HIGH SCHOOL AND SOUTH GARLAND THEIR TURFS WERE REPLACED IN 2015.
SO THE QUESTION IS, WHAT IS THE TURF LIFE CYCLE? TURF LIFE CYCLE DEPENDING ON THE WHERE, TURF COMPANIES WILL TELL YOU, YOU CAN GET TEN YEARS OUT OF IT.
I DON'T KNOW THAT WE'RE SEEING TEN YEARS OUT OF TURFS AT THIS TIME BECAUSE OF WHERE WE ACTUALLY SIT.
WE'RE TEXAS. IT GETS EXTREMELY HOT ON OUR TURFS.
WE DO A REALLY GOOD JOB OF MAINTAINING OUR TURFS.
BUT YOU'RE REALLY LOOKING AT ABOUT EIGHT YEARS OF TURF LIFE.
SO WHEN YOU GET TO THE 8 TO 10 YEAR TURF, YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT A TURF THAT'S AT ITS END OF LIFE.
SO WHERE WE'RE AT NOW, WE ARE IN CYCLE TO REPLACE THESE TURF.
SO THAT'S THE REASON THAT WE'RE COMING TO YOU NOW AS FAR AS A TURF REPLACEMENT, BECAUSE WE ARE ACTUALLY IN CYCLE TO REPLACE THESE . A LITTLE BIT OF BACK WANTED TO HIGHLIGHT THE REASON THAT WE HAVE SELECTED THESE SPECIFIC TURFS AND YOU'LL SEE THAT IT SAYS THAT WE'RE GOING TO LEAVE NORTH GARLAND HIGH SCHOOL AND SOUTH GARLAND HIGH SCHOOL.
THEY'RE ACTUALLY NOT PART OF THIS TURF REPLACEMENT.
THEY ARE ACTUALLY PART OF THE OVERALL BOND PROGRAM.
BECAUSE OF THE COMPLEXITY OF THOSE PROJECTS THIS IS NOT JUST A TURF REPLACEMENT FOR THOSE CAMPUSES.
[00:55:04]
SO THAT PORTION IS MUCH A LARGER SCOPE, AND THAT'S NOT PART OF THIS PROJECT.THAT WOULD BE PART OF A BOND PROGRAM.
THE SCOREBOARDS WERE NOT PART OF THE BOND PROGRAM.
THE SCOREBOARDS THAT YOU SEE OUT THERE ARE ORIGINAL TO EACH FACILITY.
SO THOSE HAVE LONG PASSED THEIR LIFE CYCLE.
AND SO THIS IS A REPLACEMENT OF THE SCOREBOARDS AT THOSE SPECIFIC CAMPUSES.
SO WITH THAT, I'LL TAKE ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE.
ANY QUESTIONS FROM COMMITTEE MEMBERS? BOARD MEMBERS? ANY QUESTIONS? MR. GLICK. YES.
WHEN WAS THE DECISION MADE THAT THIS ALMOST 9 MILLION WOULD BE SENT TO COME OUT OF 651 RATHER THAN INCORPORATED IN THE BOND? TWO THINGS HAPPENED WITH THAT 651.
THE SECOND THING IS WE NEED TO GET THEM STARTED AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE IN THE SUMMER.
AND A BOND PASSAGE WOULD NOT ALLOW US TO GET SOME OF THESE.
AND THE THIRD THING WAS THAT THESE ARE WHAT JAVIER TALKED ABOUT THEY'RE NOT EVASIVE REPAIRS.
THE ONES THAT ARE ON THE BOND, EVERYTHING ON THE BOND IS EVASIVE.
THE SURROUNDING SYSTEMS NEED TO BE DONE DIFFERENTLY.
EVERY TURF PROJECT ON THE BOND IS EXTENSIVE.
SO THE TWO THAT YOU MENTIONED IN THE BOND, THEY'RE UNDER CATEGORY A STILL, AREN'T THEY? YES, THEY ARE. RIGHT.
OKAY. SO I GUESS EVERYTHING COULD HAVE BEEN UNDER A THEN, RIGHT? FOR CLARITY. DR.
THE WILLIAMS STADIUM AND HBJ STADIUM, WE CANNOT DO ANY OF THAT WORK AS PART OF THE BOND BECAUSE THERE ARE LARGER STADIUMS, THE FIELDS THAT WE HAVE AT OUR HIGH SCHOOLS THEY ARE BY DEFINITION, THEY ARE A SUPPORT FACILITY FOR THAT CAMPUS. SO WHEN WE LOOK AT THOSE FACILITIES, THEY ARE REALLY SUPPORT FACILITIES, MEANING THAT WE DON'T HOST VARSITY GAMES AT OUR HIGH SCHOOLS.
ALL VARSITY GAMES ARE HELD AT A STADIUM.
THAT'S WHERE OUR MIDDLE SCHOOLS GO.
AND AGAIN, AS YOU INDICATED IN 2014, WE DID PULL THE TURF FIELDS EXCUSE ME, OUT OF THE BOND, AND WE DID PAY FOR IT OUT OF FUND BALANCE.
SO THAT WOULD BE YOUR TRADITION, THAT AN EXISTING TRADITION.
AND I GUESS THAT'S WHAT WE'RE CONTINUING.
THE OTHER QUESTION I HAVE TO ASK, IF APPROVED, ARE WE GOING TO HAVE ANY CHANGE SUPPLY OF GETTING THE MATERIALS SO THAT WE ARE READY TO GO IN 23 24, THE FALL OF 23 24 IS WILL THAT BE COMPLETED FOR THE FOOTBALL SEASON? IT'S A VERY GOOD QUESTION, SIR.
THANK YOU FOR ASKING THAT QUESTION.
SO ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE'RE LOOKING AT, IF YOU LOOK AT THE NUMBER OF TURFS THAT WE'RE ACTUALLY TALKING ABOUT, ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE HAVE DISCUSSED WITH THE DESIGN TEAM IS WHEN YOU LOOK AT TURFS, WE'RE LOOKING AT SIX FACILITIES FOR TURFS. AND THE TWO THAT ARE MY CONCERN ARE HBJ AND WILLIAM STADIUM.
AND WE DON'T KNOW WHAT THE MARKET CONDITION IS.
THEY CAN'T GUARANTEE THE LABOR, THOUGH.
SO IN SPEAKING WITH THE DESIGN TEAM, WE'RE ACTUALLY LOOKING AT THE POSSIBILITY AND WE'LL AS WE GET THROUGH THE DESIGN, WE'LL BE ABLE TO SHARE WITH YOU MORE. BUT WE'RE LOOKING AT THE POSSIBILITY AT THIS POINT OF TAKING THE WILLIAM STADIUM TURF AND THE TRACK BECAUSE WE'RE DOING BOTH OF THOSE AND PUSHING THAT TO NEXT SUMMER.
SO WE DO EVERYTHING ELSE THIS SUMMER EXCEPT WILLIAM'S TURF AND TRACK.
THAT'S STILL A DISCUSSION ITEM AT THIS POINT THAT HASN'T BEEN RESOLVED.
[01:00:01]
THE CONCERN THAT I HAVE PERSONALLY IS I'M CONCERNED THAT IF WE START DOING ALL OF THIS WORK AND WE GET TO A POINT THAT WE HAVE NO FACILITY FOR VARSITY GAME, THERE'S GOING TO BE A LOT OF UPSET PARENTS LOOKING AT JAVIER.SO I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE A FACILITY AVAILABLE FOR US FOR THIS YEAR.
AND SO THAT'S A CONCERN THAT I HAVE IN LOOKING AT THE SPEED OF THIS PROJECT WHERE WE AT WE'RE IN THE MIDDLE OF FEBRUARY AND WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THIS PROJECT AND WE'RE TALKING ABOUT COMPLETING THIS BY AUGUST, VERY, VERY, VERY SHORT TIME FRAME TO DESIGN AND GET THIS OUT TO BID AND BUILT.
BUT THE OTHER PART ABOUT WILLIAMS IS THAT'S THE FIELD GARLAND ALSO USES FOR THEIR PRACTICING FOR.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? THANK YOU JAVIER. OKAY.
YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO GO BACK TO.
GOOD EVENING, CHAIRMAN BEACH, BOARD OF TRUSTEES, DR.
LOPEZ. I'M HERE TODAY TO SEEK APPROVAL FOR AN INCREASE IN THE AMOUNT THAT WAS APPROVED BY THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES BACK IN MAY OF 2022.
WE CAME, WE FACILITIES AND MAINTENANCE CAME TO THE FACILITIES COMMITTEE RECOMMENDING A HVAC CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECT FOR 22-23 FOR RENOVATIONS AT ROWLETT, NAAMAN HIGH SCHOOL, LAKEVIEW CENTENNIAL HIGH SCHOOL, IN THE AMOUNT OF $4,104,848 AND THIS WENT OUT TO BID PURCHASING ASSISTED ME AND PUTTING THIS OUT TO BID HERE A FEW MONTHS AGO. WELL, AS YOU KNOW, WITH THE MATERIALS AND THE MARKETPLACE AND INFLATION RIGHT NOW, THINGS ARE COMING BACK HIGHER THAN WHAT WE ESTIMATED BACK LAST MAY. SO TODAY I'M HERE TO ASK FOR AN APPROVAL AND AN INCREASE IN THE AMOUNT OF 1.1885152 1 MILLION 8 HUNDRED AND 85 AND 152 FOUR FOR AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED FIVE NINE NINETY.
ONE OF THE THINGS THAT I WANTED TO SHARE WITH YOU ALL WAS THE ACTUAL BUDGET FOR THIS.
TOTAL CONSTRUCTION YOU CAN SEE TOTAL CONSTRUCTION AND CONTINGENCY IS THAT ROUGHLY 5.5.
THE DESIGN CAME IN AT 330, THEN THE MISCELLANEOUS FOR THE COMMISSIONING AND TEST AND BALANCING AND LEGAL SERVICES TO WORK ON ASSISTING WITH THE CONTRACTS WERE AT 146.
PROJECT CONTINGENCY CAME IN A LITTLE OVER 5,000 DOLLARS 5,260.
TOTAL AMOUNT AGAIN IS $5,000,990 NOT TO EXCEED THAT AMOUNT.
DO WE HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ON THIS ITEM? MR. MILLER. YEAH, AND THANK YOU.
IS ANY OF THIS WORK ONGOING? HAS IT BEEN STARTED OR WHERE ARE WE IN THOSE PROJECTS? THIS WAS IN MAY, RIGHT? YES. SO IN MAY, WE BROUGHT IN A CONSULTANT.
THEY ACTUALLY DID THE DESIGN, THE ENGINEERING ASPECT OF IT.
IT WENT OUT TO BID, I BELIEVE IN LATE OCTOBER OR EARLY NOVEMBER.
THE BIDS CAME BACK IN DECEMBER AND WE'RE AT NOW FOR APPROVAL.
SO WE HAVEN'T STARTED START OVER AND GO THROUGH THAT PROCESS.
WE'RE TO THE POINT WHERE THEY CAN BE PUT ON THE STREET AND THE PROJECT STARTED.
SO GIVE ME WHEN ARE WE GOING TO DO THIS? WHAT TIME FRAME IS THIS GOING TO HAPPEN? GREAT, GREAT QUESTION.
SO THE WORK WOULD START THIS COMING SUMMER AND BE COMPLETED NEXT SUMMER.
[01:05:04]
AND THE REASON WHY IS CHAIN AND, YOU KNOW, CHAIN OF SUPPLY RIGHT NOW FOR THE EQUIPMENT.SO WE'RE LOOKING AT ANYWHERE FROM 6 TO 8 MONTHS FOR DELIVERY OF EQUIPMENT RIGHT NOW.
ARE THE CONTRACTS FIXED OR WILL PRICES CHANGE DURING THAT YEAR? CONTRACTS ARE THEY'RE FIXED.
THANK YOU. ONE OTHER THING ON THE CONSTRUCTION CONTINGENCY IS THAT ENTECH SALES AND SERVICE THAT WE'LL BE TALKING ABOUT ON THE NEXT ITEM OR WILL THEY DO THE FULL THAT'S THE CONSTRUCTION COMPANY ALSO.
THAT IS CORRECT. THEY DO THE FULL SERVICE. ON FULL SERVICE TO BE ON THE NEXT AGENDA ITEM.
OKAY. I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THAT WAS WHO THAT WAS.
OKAY. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? OKAY. MOVING ON TO ITEM NUMBER 9 THE NEW BIDS CONTRACT 499-23-01 CONSIDER APPROVAL OF RECOMMENDED CONTRACTOR FOR CSP 499-23-01 FOR ORG NUMBER 009 ROWLETT HIGH SCHOOL ORGANIZATION NUMBER 008 NAAMAN FOREST HIGH SCHOOL AND ORG NUMBER 005 LAKEVIEW HIGH SCHOOL HVAC RENOVATIONS.
GOOD EVENING AGAIN. AS DISCUSSED IN THE PREVIOUS AGENDA ITEM, I'M HERE TODAY TO SEEK AWARDING ENTECH SALES AND SERVICES LLC FOR THE RENOVATIONS AT ROWLETT HIGH SCHOOL, NAAMAN FOREST HIGH SCHOOL, LAKEVIEW CENTENNIAL HIGH SCHOOL OF HVAC AND HVAC SCOPE AND EQUIPMENT IN THE AMOUNT OF 5.503217, THE FUNDING WILL BE 651 EDUCATION STABILIZATION FUND. DO I HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? ROBERT, MR. SELDERS.
THANK YOU. JUST REAL QUICK QUESTION.
I NOTICED THAT YOU GUYS SOLICITED 262 SUPPLIERS AND ONLY RECEIVED THREE RESPONSES.
I MEAN, IS THAT INDICATIVE OF WHAT WE SHOULD EXPECT FOR SOME OF THE OTHER PROJECTS THAT WE HAVE GOING ON, PARTICULARLY WITH HVAC WITH BOND? SO ONE OF THE THINGS IN PURCHASING, THERE'S A LARGE DATABASE THAT WHEN WE SOLICIT TO OUR REGISTERED VENDORS AND VENDORS THAT ACTUALLY ARE IN OUR DATABASE, A LOT OF THEM ARE NOT, THEY'RE NOT EQUIPPED OR SCOPE TO DO THIS TYPE OF WORK, BUT THEY DO JUST BECAUSE THEY'RE IN OUR DATABASE, WE SEND OUT A MASS SOLICITATION.
I BELIEVE, ON THIS PARTICULAR PROJECT THESE ARE THE THREE THAT HAD MET ALL THE REQUIREMENTS TO BE CAPABLE TO DO THIS, THIS TYPE OF SCOPE OF WORK, THE TURNKEY. SO WILL THIS TYPE OF WORK ALSO I MEAN, BECAUSE WE'RE GOING TO BE DOING SOME OF THIS TYPE OF WORK IN THE BOND AS WELL.
SO I'M JUST CURIOUS LIKE, IS THIS WHAT WE SHOULD PROBABLY EXPECT IN TERMS OF RESPONSE FOR THOSE PROJECTS? OR IS THERE GOING TO BE A BIGGER POOL OF COMPANIES THAT WILL BE AVAILABLE? ONE OF THE THINGS THAT I WILL BE WORKING WITH, DR.
ONE OF THE THINGS THAT I'VE EVEN DISCUSSED WITH MR. BOOKER IS HAVE, AS WE'VE DONE IN THE PAST, HAVING SOME TYPE OF BOND FAIR TO ENTICE CONTRACTORS FROM THE LOCAL AREAS AND IN THE COMMUNITY THAT DO THIS TYPE OF WORK TO TRY TO GET THE POOL BIGGER FOR THESE TYPE OF SCOPES.
IN OTHER WORDS, TO TRY TO ATTRACT MORE PEOPLE TO BE ON OUR JOBS.
BUT IT COULD BE WE COULD BE IN THE SAME SITUATION ON PROJECTS.
OKAY. THANK YOU, MR. GONZALES. MOVING ON TO ITEM NUMBER 9B CONTRACT, 141-24.
CONSIDER APPROVAL OF PURCHASE OF COMMODITY PROCESSING.
SO THIS IS NOT JENNIFER MILLER, BUT WE'LL TAKE IT.

THE ESTIMATED TOTAL AMOUNT OF THE BID IS NOT TO EXCEED $5 MILLION DOLLARS POTENTIAL FUNDING IS INDICATED BELOW AND THIS IS FROM THE NATIONAL SCHOOL BREAKFAST AND LUNCH PROGRAM, WHICH IS FUND 240.
AND WHAT COMMODITY PROCESSING IS IN A NUTSHELL IS THE FOOD IS FREE.
SO WE GET A HUGE TRUCKLOAD OF CHICKENS AND IT'S FREE CHICKENS, BUT THEY'RE CHICKENS.
AND SO COMMODITY PROCESSING BASICALLY.
AND WE ALSO GET KETCHUP GALLONS, TONS OF KETCHUP, BUT IT'S NOT IN A LITTLE PACKET.
[01:10:07]
AND SO THAT'S WHAT COMMODITY PROCESSING MEANS.PERFECT. DO YOU ALL HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR ME? THANK YOU. MOVING ON TO ITEM NUMBER 9C CONTRACT 247-23.

GOOD AFTERNOON, CHAIRPERSON BEACH, DR.
LOPEZ, AND MEMBERS OF THE BOARD.
HERE TODAY TALK ABOUT THE DIGITAL SIGNAGE REPLACEMENT PROGRAM AT THE CURTIS CULWELL CENTER.
THE COMPANY THAT WE'RE LOOKING TO DO THE WORK IS CALLED AVI.
THIS IS ALSO THE EAST LOBBY OF THE ARENA OF THE CCC.
THIS IS AT THE CONCESSION STAND.
AND ALL THE MONITORS THAT YOU SEE ON THE CONCOURSE THERE WOULD BE REPLACED IN ADDITION TO, AS YOU SEE STRAIGHT DOWN ON THAT BLANK WALL BACK THERE, THERE'LL BE A BIG SCREEN BACK THERE ALSO.
AND THIS IS THE CURRENT STATE THAT THIS IS IN RIGHT NOW.
AND AS YOU SEE, HOSPITALITY TOO DOES NOT EVEN IT'S NOT EVEN OPERATIVE.
THESE ARE SCREENS ON THE NORTH CONCOURSE.
THIS IS THE CONFERENCE CENTER ENTRANCE.
THIS IS IN THE CONFERENCE CENTER OUTSIDE THE BALLROOM DOORS.
THIS IS THE OTHER SIDE OF THE LECTURE HALL.
BALLROOM C THE OTHER DOOR ON C.
THIS IS THE NORTH SIDE OF THE CONFERENCE CENTER.
OK TOTAL COST OF THE PROJECT IS $380,000.
ANY QUESTIONS? DO YOU HAVE ANY CONTINGENCY ON THIS ON THIS MONEY FOR THE PROJECT? IT IS BUILT INTO THAT TOTAL.
OKAY, GOOD. MR. MILLER. YEAH. THANK YOU.
TELL ME HOW, THESE ARE ALL DIGITAL SIGNS IS WHAT WE'RE? THAT IS CORRECT. IT'S DIGITAL SIGNAGE.
WE'VE HAD A SYSTEM IN PLACE SINCE THE CCC WAS BUILT.
IS IT ALL HARD WIRED THEN? YES, IT IS HARD WIRE.
THIS WILL ALSO BE IN ADDITION TO THAT, A HARD WIRE.
AND THAT PROGRAM CENTER IS WHERE WITHIN WE CARRIED AROUND AS DIGITAL.
SO IT COULD BE ON YOUR PHONE OR BE IPAD OR SOMETHING? WE'LL HAVE A PAD THAT IT'S ON THAT WE GO TO EACH INDIVIDUAL ONE ON IF NECESSARY.
AND IN THE HALLWAYS OF THE CORRIDORS, THOSE MONITORS ARE THEY FOR MERELY INFORMATION AND ADVERTISING OR DO THEY LIKE AT AMERICAN AIRLINES, YOU CAN SEE WHAT'S GOING ON, ON THE FLOOR.
SO YOU CAN WATCH IT IN THE MONITOR? YOU CAN SEE EVERYTHING ON THE MONITORS THAT IS CORRECT.
STANDING OUT THERE WITH YOUR CHILD OR WHATEVER.

WE'RE GOING TO MOVE ON TO ITEM NUMBER 9D CONTRACT 394-23-06.
CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A PURCHASE OF ASSISTIVE TECHNOLOGY, EQUIPMENT, SUPPLIES AND SERVICES.
[01:15:04]
MS. CADDELL OR DO WE NEED TO HAVE SOMEONE TALK ABOUT THIS? ANYBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? [LAUGHTER] WE RECOMMEND APPROVAL.HEY, THE BOARD HAVE QUESTIONS ON THIS.
OH, SO THIS IS THE SOCIAL SKILLS.
I'M SORRY. I HAD TO GO TO THE NEXT PAGE.
THIS IS A SOCIAL SKILLS CURRICULUM FOR USE IN OUR SELF CONTAINED ALE CLASSROOMS. SO IT'S HELPING OUR KIDS LEARN HOW TO INTERACT IN THE REGULAR SCHOOL SETTING.
PRETTY GOOD. IT'S THROUGH THE ESSER FUNDS, CORRECT? YES, SIR. OKAY.
ANY QUESTIONS FROM ANYBODY? MOVING ALONG.
YES, I'M HERE TONIGHT FOR APPROVAL FOR THIS CONTRACT.
AS YOU KNOW, I'M CONSTANTLY UP HERE REQUESTING APPROVAL FOR HVAC EQUIPMENT AND SERVICE.
AND THIS CONTRACT IS BEING FUNDED OUT OF GENERAL FUND AND ESTIMATED TOTAL.
THE TOTAL AMOUNT IS $1 MILLION DOLLARS, AGAIN, OUT OF GENERAL FUND 199.
SO IS THIS JUST FOR MAINTENANCE OR REPAIRS THAT WOULD COME UP THROUGH A COURSE OF A TIME? YES, MA'AM. IT IS A MAINTENANCE CONTRACT FOR MAINTENANCE AND OPERATIONS.
MR. GONZALES. REAL QUICK. I'M SORRY.
OKAY. GO AHEAD. REMIND ME HOW MANY FACILITIES WE HAVE CURRENTLY USING HVAC SYSTEMS. ALL OF OUR FACILITIES UTILIZE.
AND WHAT DO YOU THINK THE AVERAGE AGE OF THOSE SYSTEMS ARE? AVERAGE AGE OF THOSE SYSTEMS? I WOULD SAY 12 TO 15 YEARS.
SO WE HAVE A FEW THAT HAVE BEEN UPDATED OR RENEWED.
BUT LARGELY, I THINK WE'VE BEEN HAVING TO DEAL WITH, AND IT COMES UP ROUTINELY IN THESE MEETINGS THAT WE HAVE TO SPEND A LOT OF TIME AND MONEY MAINTAINING HVAC SYSTEMS. THE LAST THING WE WANT TO DO IS HAVE A SYSTEM GO DOWN IN THE MIDDLE OF AUGUST.
YES, SIR. A MAINTENANCE CONTRACT LIKE THIS, IF I UNDERSTAND, MAY OR MAY NOT BE SPENT, BUT WE NEED TO BUDGET FOR THAT MONEY IN CASE SOMETHING COMES UP THAT NEEDS A REPAIR.
I MEAN, YOU PRETTY MUCH LAID IT OUT JUST TO LET EVERYBODY KNOW THAT WE DID REPLACE QUITE A BIT OF HVAC EQUIPMENT ON THE LAST BOND PROGRAM, ABOUT $155 MILLION DOLLARS, WHICH REPLACED A LOT OF IT.
BUT STILL, THERE'S A LOT OF NEEDS STILL OUT THERE.
GOOD. THANK YOU. THANK YOU, PAUL.
MR. RINGO. I THINK WE'VE TALKED ABOUT THIS ALREADY ONCE AND HAVEN'T WE? IT HAS BEEN APPROVED BY THE BOARD ALREADY.
THIS IS FOR INCREASE COMING BACK TO THE BOARD OF $350,000.
AGAIN, THIS IS DUE TO THE NUMBER OF DEPARTMENTS AND OR CAMPUSES THAT USE AMAZON.
THE FUNDS ARE WITHIN THE BUDGET ALREADY IN THE BUDGET.

WE'LL MOVE ON TO ITEM B CONTRACT 160-21 CONSIDER APPROVAL OF INCREASED AWARDED AMOUNT FOR SINGLE SIGN ON SSO AND IDENTITY LIFECYCLE MANAGEMENT SOLUTION.
AND WITH THAT, I WILL LET MR. YEAGER SPEAK TO THAT.
[LAUGHTER] GOOD EVENING, CHAIRMAN BEACH, BOARD MEMBERS, DR.
LOPEZ. YEAH, THIS IS OUR HOW WE TRANSFER THE USERNAMES INTO ACCOUNTS AND SINGLE SIGN ON.
SO THIS IS THE SOFTWARE THAT AUTOMATES ALL THAT PROCESS.
AND SO THIS IS ALREADY WITHIN OUR BUDGET.
THIS IS JUST TO GOING BACK TO INCREASE AS WE GO THROUGH THE YEAR.
QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS? OKAY SEEING NONE THEN WE'LL MOVE ON TO ITEM C CONTRACT 486-21-1 CONSIDER APPROVAL TO INCREASE IN AWARDED AMOUNT FOR AUDIO VISUAL EQUIPMENT, SUPPLIES AND SERVICES.
MR YEAGER. AND THIS IS FOR THE EQUIPMENT FOR THE BOARDROOM GOING BACK FOR NEW AV EQUIPMENT.

THANK YOU. CONSIDER APPROVAL OF RECOMMENDED CHANGE ORDER 01 FOR CSP 499-15-22 ORG #916 HARRIS HILL RENOVATION PROJECT.
THANK YOU. COMMITTEE CHAIR BEACH, MEMBERS OF THE COMMITTEE, MEMBERS OF THE BOARD, DR.
LOPEZ. THIS ACTION ITEM IS A CHANGE ORDER NUMBER ONE FOR THIS HARRIS HILL PROJECT.
THE PROJECT HAS AS IT'S WINDING DOWN.
WE ARE THERE'S TWO PIECES OF THIS CHANGE ORDER.
ONE IS FOR MONEY, ONE IS FOR TIME.
THE TIME PIECE IS TO EXTEND THE SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION DATE TO JANUARY 31ST, WHICH HAS NOW PASSED.
WE'VE GOT ALL OF OUR SYSTEMS OPERATING NOW.
THE GOOD NEWS IS, IS THAT I BELIEVE THIS WILL BE THE LAST MEETING THAT WE HAVE HERE AT THE GRCTC.
OUR BOARD MEETING WILL BE HOSTED BACK AT HARRIS HILL.
SO WE'RE GETTING EVERYTHING PREPPED FOR THAT AREA.
IT'S A CHANGE ORDER FOR TIME AND MONEY.
AND THE MONEY IS FOR $131,166.
THAT IS FOR SOME ADDITIONAL ITEMS THAT WERE THAT EXCEEDED OUR OWNERS CONTINGENCY . WHEN WE STARTED THE PROJECT, I'LL GIVE YOU A LITTLE BIT OF BACKGROUND.
SOME OF THOSE BIG TICKET ITEMS WERE A SANITARY SEWER LINE.
WE IN THE ANNEX, WE HAD A VERY LARGE PORTION OF THE SANITARY SEWER LINE THAT HAD ACTUALLY COLLAPSED UNDER THE BUILDING AND HAD BEEN COLLAPSED FOR SOME TIME.
SO AS PART OF THIS PROJECT, WE UTILIZE SOME OF OUR OWNERS CONTINGENCY TO CUT INTO THE SLAB AND TO REROUTE PORTIONS OF THAT SANITARY SEWER LINE.
SO WE WERE ABLE TO IDENTIFY THAT WE CAMERA'D IT AND FOUND OUT THAT WE HAD SEVERAL BREAKS.
SO WE UTILIZE SOME OF THE FUNDS FOR THAT.
SOME OF THE OTHER THINGS THAT WE UTILIZE OUR FUNDS FOR IS AS WE STARTED TO DO THE WORK, THE AREAS BETWEEN THE FIRST FLOOR AND THE SECOND FLOOR, WE NOTICED AND IT'S THE ATTIC SPACE THAT YOU WOULD CALL ABOVE BETWEEN THE FIRST FLOOR AND THE SECOND FLOOR AND THE SECOND FLOOR AND THE THIRD FLOOR.
YOU COULDN'T SEE IT BECAUSE IT WAS ABOVE THE DROP CEILING.
ALL THAT AREA WAS STAYING EXTREMELY HOT.
SO WE'RE ABLE TO DO SOME OF THOSE AREAS.
SO ALL IN ALL, WE WERE ABLE TO DO QUITE A BIT OF ADDITIONAL WORK WITHIN THAT SPACE WITH THESE FUNDS.
WE'VE CHANGED OUT THE FRONT ENTRY OF THE HR THAT'S ACTUALLY NOT FINISHED YET.
WE ANTICIPATE GETTING THE STOREFRONT.
THERE'LL BE A STOREFRONT THERE THAT'LL COME IN NEXT MONTH.
SO THAT WILL HAVE A DIFFERENT LOOK TO IT.
QUESTIONS. MR. GLICK. THANK YOU, SIR.
MAYBE FOR THE DR. RINGO OR MS. DAVENPORT. SO THESE ARE STILL OUR 2014 BOND FUNDS.
HOW MUCH IS REMAINING IN THIS? WHAT IS IT 681? IF YOU KNOW AND I KNOW AT ONE POINT WE HAD ALSO TALKED ABOUT FIXING SOME OF THE REVERBERATION ISSUES AT THE BAND HALLS AND THE ORCHESTRA HALLS AND IN THE PRACTICE ROOMS. SO MAYBE IS THERE MONEY LEFT AND IS THAT WHERE.
YES. MR. GLICK, GOOD QUESTION.
IN TOTAL, ROUGHLY 9 TO 10 MILLION.
OFF THE TOP OF MY HEAD. I DO NOT REMEMBER, BUT THAT $131,000 WOULD COME FROM THAT AMOUNT.
AND I KNOW MR. FERNANDEZ HAS PRESENTED AND DISCUSSED THE BAND HALL REVERBERATIONS.
WE'RE ACTUALLY IN DESIGN AT THIS POINT.
[01:25:03]
SO THE BAND HALL PORTIONS IS ACTUALLY IN DESIGN.THEY HAVE ACTUALLY HAD THEIR CONSULTANTS GO OUT AND LOOK SPECIFICALLY DURING THE CHRISTMAS BREAK WHEN STUDENTS WEREN'T THERE AND WE NEEDED TO GET IN WHEN STUDENTS WEREN'T THERE. SO THEY'VE ACTUALLY GONE IN, LOOKED AT THOSE AREAS AND ARE ACTUALLY WORKING ON SPECIFIC DRAWINGS PER CAMPUS BASIS ON HOW THAT IS.
AND SO WE PLAN ON USING THE 681 FUNDS TO COVER THAT.
RINGO, IN ADDITION TO THESE FUNDS THAT ARE BEING EXPENDED AND THIS ADDITION, THERE'S ABOUT ANOTHER 9 MILLION LEFT IN 681 IS THAT RIGHT? YES, SIR. AND SOME OF THAT WILL BE SPENT ON THE BAND HALL? YES, SIR. SO THERE WILL BE ACTUALLY SOME OTHER DOLLARS LEFT GOING AS WE CONTINUE THIS YEAR? HOPEFULLY. [LAUGHTER] YEAH. OKAY. YES.
THANK YOU. MR. BEACH. THANK YOU, SIR. ALL RIGHT.
MS. GRIFFIN. WHO HAS A LIST OF THESE PENDING PROJECTS THAT WITH THIS EXCESS MONEY, HOW ARE WE COMING UP WITH THESE PROJECTS? THE LIST OF PENDING PROJECTS ARE.
LIKE WHAT WE'RE HANDLING NOW IN THESE ADDITIONS.
IS THERE A SYSTEM FORMULA, WHATEVER, THAT DETERMINES THAT WE'RE GOING TO USE THE MONEY? SO IF WE'RE GOING TO HAVE SOMETHING LEFT, I'M TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT ARE THE OTHER UPCOMING PROJECTS THAT MAY BE CONSIDERED AND WILL WE KNOW OR WILL WE NOT KNOW OR WILL WE JUST KNOW WHEN WE GET TO THIS POINT? SO THERE IS NO PENDING PROJECTS LIST.
THE BAND HALL PORTION IS THE PROJECT THAT HAS BEEN APPROVED BY THE BOARD PREVIOUSLY.
THERE ARE NO OTHER PENDING PROJECTS WITHIN THAT TO UTILIZE THOSE FUNDS.
IF ANY PROJECT IS DEVELOPED FOR THAT, THOSE PROJECTS ARE ACTUALLY PRESENTED TO THE BOARD FOR APPROVAL PRIOR TO BEING EXECUTED.
SO THE EXCESS MONEY WILL JUST SIT THERE UNTIL? THAT IS CORRECT. I'M JUST UNTIL WE COME UP WITH A NEED THROUGH A PROJECT? THAT IS CORRECT. OKAY. THANK YOU.
WHAT'S THE LIFE EXPECTANCY OF A 2014 BOND MONEY? HOW LONG DOES THAT MONEY SIT THERE? AND IS THERE A TIME PLAN? WITH THESE LAST FEW PROJECTS, WE WERE PRETTY MUCH EXPEND ALL DOLLARS AND EXPECTANCY IS WITHIN 3 TO 5 YEARS THAT THOSE DOLLARS ARE EXPENSED FROM THE TIME WE SELL THE BONDS. SO NOT NECESSARILY FROM THE 2014 BOND PROGRAM, BUT OUR LAST ISSUANCE OF BONDS FOR THE 2014 BOND PROGRAM, IF I RECALL CORRECTLY, WAS AT THE END OF 2019. SO WITHIN 3 TO 5 YEARS OF 2019, WE'RE SUPPOSED TO EXPENSE ALL THOSE DOLLARS.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? ALL RIGHT.
WE'RE GOING TO MOVE ON THEN TO ITEM NUMBER FIVE EXECUTIVE SESSION.
[VI. Adjournment]
AND THERE'S NO CALL FOR EXECUTIVE SESSION, SO IT IS 4:28.DO I HAVE A MOTION FROM THE COMMITTEE MEMBERS FOR ADJOURNMENT? SO MOVED.
WE ARE ADJOURNED AT 4:28.
