4. Discussion and Direction on Concurrency Service Areas

5. Discussion and Direction on School Minimum and Maximum Enrollment Size Policy
Attachment: SchoolSize-EnrollmentIssues.pdf
Minutes: 

See the Attachment for information concerning the school size policy and maximum school enrollment issues and recommendations.  Newer schools, because of the addition of muti-purpose space to the cafetoriums, have a capacity core that does not reflect the intended size of the school, resultings in schools that are too large.  Other schools are under utilized and small schools should be defined as to a minimum size.  The school size policy will be drafted for School Board review and approval for advertising at the regular meeting on February 15, 2007.

10. Discussion and Direction on School District Representative Voting Status on the Planning and Zoning Commission
Minutes: Following discussion led by Jim Connell, Director of Facility Planning, the School Board gave consensus to request voting status on the BCC Planning Commission, with the voting member being a school district staff member.  A resolution will be developed for approval at the regular meeting on February 15, 2007.  This voting status will allow the school district to go on the official record if a request is not in the best interest of the school district.

11. Discussion and Direction on Local Government Zoning and Approval Processes and School District or Board Participation
Attachment: CCPC-BCC Review (2).pdf
Minutes: 

Mr. Connell reviewed the current process for approval of zoning requests.  (See Attachment)    There was discussion about the School Board's level of involvement and input on the requests, but the timing for the Board to give consensus or denial on each zoning request prior to Planning Commission Meetings will be a problem.  The Board's representative will continue to convey the school district's consensus/denial in writing and, when possible, to also voice verbal objections when a zoning request is not in the best interest of the school district.  It was also agreed that the school district's representative would e-mail all school board members the written conveyance when it was submitted, thus providing information on a current basis negating the need for quarterly reports in the future.
