Attachment: 0607REDISTRICTINGANDLOSINITIATIVES.pdf
Attachment: DistrictFinancialConsiderations.pdf
Minutes: 

Mike Elliott, Assistant Superintendent for Support Services, addressed this item.  He reviewed the multiple options available to the Board regarding redistricting initiatives.  It was noted several times during the discussion that these are only options, some of which would not be advantageous to the school district.   The School Board concurred with the first six redistricting items.  Item #7 was removed from consideration for fiscal year 2007-08.  The Board established an additional workshop for October 12, 2006 (later changed to October 17, 2006) to further discuss the remaining options.  The following citizens were present and spoke to the item:

Jennifer Dahl, Matthew Looman, Ray DiManda, Joe Baker, Carol Rynne, Diana Farhat, Greg Achors, Rene' Vann  

Pamela Reyes (spoke regarding the school crossing issue at SPC)

Superintendent Requests (There were none)
School Board's Requests
62. School Impact Fees
Minutes: 

At Mrs. Vallencourt's request, Mr. Elliott and Mr. Bickner readdressed the calculation of the impact fees which resulted in a reduction.  Both reiterated that the fees must be based on current and accurate data within the impact fee study.  Both Mr. Elliott and Mr. Bickner also emphasized that the fees were affected by the large allocation from the state (a non-recurring $48 million - combination of Classrooms for Kids and PECO).  A resolution with the revised impact fee study is scheduled for the School Board at the October 19, 2006 meeting.  If approved, it will be forwarded to the Board of County Commissioners.  Nothing is final yet.  Several board members expressed concern over some of the findings in the impact fee study and, subsequent to further discussion, it was suggested and the Board agreed, to ask Mr. Creveling to come back to explain his findings in the impact fee study and push back the resolution to a later time.

63. Future of W.E. Cherry Elementary
Minutes: Mr. Bolla brought this topic up for discussion.  Several scenarios have been discussed at previous meetings that would affect the future of this school, including closing the school or possibly making it another concept school.  At Mr. Bolla's request, the item will be placed on the regular October meeting agenda for further discussion.

Adjournment
64. The meeting adjourned at 10:35 p.m.
