Can you just give a little bit of fat is in a is sunshine Musical and the whole scene is a friendship so it's actually really sorry it was just revived on Broadway with Daniel Radcliffe John and Doc and an actress who I personally do not know the name of that I'm at the very end of their friendship going back in time through their life and the life of his friendship and it follows those themes of ever-changing and hope ends with hope that you know terribly it ends in a way so it's trying to deal with a complex human emotion and sometime if you're into that last time but those that are low and this year have been working on at our school they were to play gun violence and will be going on this summer. Briggs Opera House White River Junction and beautifully done it's coming together of multiple schools Hartford most of the school district's so many of the people that you see in play the session over at the Lebanon opera house will be in that and you'll get at least and we wanted to and discuss those issues because I know that it's not my place but it's definitely went and wrote, this is a pretty big thing in our community because National schools around here you guys also probably not, they're working on the script and very very I don't know if you guys are low but they do and they are incredibly talented and will cook them and appreciate thank you helping out with the districts and talking about something I do so I do not have those dates but I do know that they had already secured their place through funding from dirtybird Foundation another Crest summer summer and ask them they have duration I'm sorry thank you they actually have a website Carlo SS a r l o.com I believe I don't have any vacuum on Instagram I did not bring my phone so I can not double-check that but it should be that thank you any questions from the world hello can you hear me I don't have all that much to report this week the week before break I did come down with covid-19 so Winter Fest all of that I missed it all sadly but I do I do love that Dorothy touched on our what's happening at the inner permit to cuz I'm also a big part of that and I do know Stephen are allowed to get their dads I also I don't know what it is at this moment but I'm super excited to meet next week and finalize information on Merrily We Roll Along with the stage manager and the director so we'll finalize all of our stuff and open up auditions sometime late January or early February Alex mention on Ali's topic of covid tell the kids that are taking the buses they're seeing high schoolers and it's 67 do I have to report this week hope you're feeling better any question from the board more than welcome to stay and but thank you very much and we will see you next month thank you guys happy holidays this is a slight change in the agenda where we're moving up superintendent search update this point so real quick update has not changed plus, we ended up with five pools at 3 a week from today Reaper right now committee is next week and remove door panel for the 11th I think you'll have hopefully they're not with the finalists call me Wednesday the canvas that we invite what is all 3 or 2 or 1 will meet with a tour of the school you all were able to interview the finalists so we are on Target on track thank you very much the next item on the order is education two parts of this one is the financial accounting grants which we ask Christine to appointment at 9 slides sure, cuz we build it together too tight or i v a r e and after 1 2 and 3 on your tell you just a little bit about each of them pretty quickly here so the title Grand so all the name title in it come from the elementary and secondary Education Act at Wisconsin 1965 by President Johnson and then it was amended and updated by the every student succeeds act in 2015 by President Obama to talk to all of this will share this with you you guys can have this resource is a backup but Title One is it's a formula and base cramp so it's not competitive it's based solely on our percentage of free and reduced lunch applications that qualify kissing because that's how we get the money for title one but then that has nothing to do with how we qualify kids in terms of our ranking system that's based on their academic performance the two things you should know kids that are Agron and homeless automatically qualify for Title One regardless of their academic standing so this is really about closing the gap between the socioeconomic differences between you know our research showed young children from more poverty-stricken environment and to not perform as well as their peers so that's how this whole Grant got his start actually really focusing on student services right Utah to really focusing on the professional growth and learning of teachers and our administrators so all of this money actually goes to staff and the grand actually says that anything you buy intitle to you actually you can't be like a student resource but the professional development that's needed around teachers using resources that can be paid through title to and again this is a Formula basecraft interesting enough this one to titleone you can kind of predict year. how your allocations going to go up and down by that percentage of what we know what we're putting in consensus numbers in it I mean census numbers in it it's got some Title 1 introduced in it it's got academic achievement status in it and itching its luxury really greatly I will just say that right now I'm actually in conversation with a DLC because one of the district's I work for sorry $14,000 drop entitled to between last year and this year we're trying to figure out why because all the indicators we have wouldn't have Justified that so we're kind of checking into that currently so just one can go up and down quite a bit for you title for I'm so title for is an interesting one because it's evolved over several years title for initially started really around technology in the 90s when you know schools are trying to build up technology I switched over to health Wellness for students now it's like a combination of all of that and title for beyaz also a formula base but it's like a step Grant meaning eat meat this threshold you get this and out and then it rises to another about like it jumps we get ten thousand a year that's the lowest amount you can get her butt from getting 50. now basically around still technology and about Safety and Security in a lot of schools use this to support any social emotional learning me like they need to bring in outside counseling support you'll see water district use that we've been consistent around 10,000 each year for that Grant IV it's exactly horse yeah we're going to show you the spreadsheet I gave you guys all access to a balloon talk a little bit about that I'll bring it up in a minute I'm the idea grant for special education I'm just really just that again what I always say this what title one does for a children in poverty idea Grant does for our students with disabilities there's two parts to this this is the part that typically most people know about with students you know starting at our kindergarten through you know 21 in 21 now that we serviced but it is added into preschool now so because that age has come down now to trial so I'm being at the start of each 3 so now there's money also around preschool as well as that a through 8:21 and then Reap is part of what's the r l l I asked you to qualify for our liso you qualify for read but it's all part of just being this world education initiative it's non competitive again it's just based on a horn and the real criteria is right here at least twenty percent children Easter come from families with incomes below the poverty line and be located in a rural area she can talk to you more about the discovery of it recently I mean we consistently yeah I've been getting between $14,000 to $19,000 going toward you know what kind of stuff anything that are in from the title G are there any questions pacifically that you guys with house we can show you in a little bit and part of us having somebody around our area cuz it's not just a community one two and three are really a result of covid and how into support school so this one we didn't really factor into by didn't cuz it's going away all of them are phasing out laughing after 3 that we fully utilized all of our eyes are so big they have this can you guys shut up so why don't we start kind of with a back with Meredith and maybe just tell him work about after 3 will work our way back up yep, since that's phasing out so give us a sense of what we were able to cover that and if there's anything you need to continue about my potentially be back about $1,827 worth we use all but 1700 of that has been used for don't drink already this so we can be able to hold meetings and you know when students has everything we use the rental. Repeat salary and benefits stuff including social work and counseling service summer programming we did get the camera for the board meeting videos we were able to get the back on track room that's kind of a general overview you know line by line and what we answer to be received 67005 3706 that was utilized for additional time for the nurse additional time for Duty coverage Services we need supplies items for like our annual meeting on certain software programs and I'm 10 McLean high school bus transportation that bill will be 1 hour I forgotten about the storage unit so don't worry I just passed tractor and supply certain items like that and then we'll go back up to the top here to r i d a g and you can see most of this is contracted services in Sac in there and then contracted services that we have that were providing I mean in 2020 150 1507 and 36th Ave and as of this year would be $93,957.34 so you seen almost a doubling their of the idea and that is Rise of our population and then title for so title for you can see here has been pretty consistent around 10,000 in 2122 we actually got 10,000 but we didn't spend all of that so I actually showed what we expect and you can see there is a mental health Counseling Services the last three years has been the primary focus of that Grant and then some SEL resources in training I'm in PD for the first year last title for and then if we bump up to so title to remember is that PD grant for educators and administrators and you can see there's been a variety of activities if you look at that column speed host of different activities go on in that g we have been you know around 13706 and $0.10 in 2021 to I mean we're down to about 13,000 4380 title to this a lot of and that was in Ashley the next five years title to will actually go away completely and may not even be available any more reservations do you know when is it a real relationship so it was done in 15 so it should be coming up in the next two years here but I'm kind of delayed when I Obama reauthorized in 2015 it was actually well past the 10-year Mark is like almost 18 years since they had me authorized it was constipated so yeah so you know it is what it is I mean over the years we've used it a lot for the mentoring that's still consistent I mean what we did is we highlighted and gray so if the items that are highlight in Gray is what we have proposed to move over into the get now to put some stabilization to these programs that we know we have funded through the Gramps on mentoring is one on and then the purchase of vector which is our annual training requirements we have been funding for that and that is something that we suggested to move when you have access to this digital you can come all the way over to the column and see how we put what the funding sources that were proposing in the anticipated ship them out that were would actually impact the budget for that title to a whole host of things that you can see a lot of it is is PD it's just training from no behavior training registered Behavior Beatty as register Behavior technician training to we sent two of them asked people to the New England conference so a lot of that's how we pay for those PD and then and then I don't want I don't want the pretty cut-and-dry for us you have to have a required this is interesting you have to have three required set of sides in the grant automatically you have to have homeless set aside you have to have a supplies and materials by their side and you have to have a family engagement set aside I want to track that a little better for us because here's the deal there's no requirement of amount you have to see if we got over $500,000 in titled when money was sorry about I have a certain percentage that were required to set aside but because we're under that pressure and soon but the catch is once you do that set aside you you have to lock it in you actually can't go in during the year and change it and say I want to reduce it because like I do people when I talk to them in the reason I say what are you said they're like yeah I'm only setting aside like $50 initially so I think we need to think about that what what is Art Rooney II sights in this area close to instructional salaries and benefits for our kind of one of their professional is there an issue that we are not available ones so therefore is there an issue where we have to try and wear those Services go that way you're not over the 40% threshold Grantham is likely not ever to be we are what call the targeted assist model and more rigid in tight so what we have to do is actually create a system based on various factors and we rank its performance and I'm have to go through that rank who qualifies to who doesn't end cop points get the first stab at it and then we very much have to explicitly try the services for its much tighter than if we were garage Squad title one cuz I'm literally how they Define it as every student in the school is eligible for Title 1 services in your target is very tight ranking structure in show and then get really more issue of supplanting versus supplemental supplement Above & Beyond in the furniture will go ask you this question Jose you take those Title 1 Services away what impact will have on the kids if they're truly supplemental you go none you know this is above and beyond what they would get in a general education environment so we have to be really careful that we're not supplanting services for title one that we are truly using it as a supplement which is why a lot of people who I don't want to come for before and after school program beyond the school bag so what am I away from the child in terms of the school day if that was lost really nothing because they're getting full access to their school is it gets tricky when you're trying to do mtss try to him you know what you get kidding. With Menthol additional services question thank you Iran at that because why would it be zero cost for like the title to mine would be zero in the Grant and now that like for example that first when I'm looking at mentoring that five thousand would now be in the budget so it wouldn't be zero impact to the doctor 09 there is money in a spider grants to use required by contract for the CBA that were immigrants and although technically did not ask and we could continue to do that the purpose of Branson we want to implement this we have the money for it but we can listen to Jillian if you're in the online for a date if you go down to Road 21 to see how he said he anticipated cost 3,000 that out of the general funds if you look at Colin J30 now that wasn't and we're anticipating at putting it in title to got it in the same rows 25 and 26 any further questions thank you very much that was show me a gender-neutral report I think we're meeting up and really were looking to the January 18th meeting where the board a lot of momentous decisions can be in a good place and you'll be able to watch it I mean there's just no way around it and there's a couple placement but also we drilled chantodo fairly thoroughly in the budget preparation process because it was like well we have a lot of cough syrup we have to go through all the eyepiece and take a look and there was a lot of things for tonight and so you know she has a big proposal or unsocial specialist and we can talk about but how's it goes forward and then the second lyrics tonight is Kobe and that worked hard together to kind of put together beginning of the Scylla tcip and the idea was Edward where they did a great job of getting kind of down on paper with the needs are our suggestion for the board to think about us possibly putting a capital Improvement deposit this year the number to jump out of a hundred thousand not quite ready to launch it and say we need to rectify and see but make sure you'll have a teacher's contract make sure you'll have some other things and this would be a starter same look we do have some real facility meeting so this will be a starter say let's start timer play on the mount future so that's kind of what we're going to be doing and that's where we're at with that and then in public I will go over some updates from my students and also more about Staffing structures of the options will have a staff in structure so that's my report I think those will report just did an overview of where we stand with this year's bottom line you to have some unanticipated items come up the overview of where we stand with the overall budget with including special and that will be presented tonight so our number what is it we are remind every $16,503 with everything as presented on 69 for second grade which is not unusual and taking a road trip so down below I kind of did a breakdown so you can feed you know are made increases that 916000 what how is that real quick and then I'll so you know the new request as well hello. I'm by the allegation so this is kind of what we were just discussing the shift between items in the general correctly 80000 weaving loom into the general fund what type of wine bring in about 13,000 the general plan not including the special and Contracting Services is that an accurate reading of 67000 yes I mean I guess yes that is overall is what where we're at and it's hard to gauge their things that we don't know what we're going to get Friday so that's kind of up in the air are there things that we could move into the branch so I guess my question on that is if we pulled a thousand out of Grants what are we saying that $80,000 now is it going to be a 9% increase in the overall budget 67067 * 1 regardless of whether we should have been doing it or not it's just like for title one person wear now that we've been getting has been treating you know he can't really be kind of got to plan ahead and do you know what that is nothing in our budget and we do get the funding can you use the graph to paid or those that I can think of three instances NFL's personnel-related we're actually while they were grant-funded you were carrying some of their salary all along and what happened is because of the salary cap increasing right you were picking up more of a Garden of that while the grant was going down so I hear you had when you say you know about 67,000 is getting shifted out of grass actually I'm thinking I can account for about 30 to 35 of that 16 that actually was that wasn't in the grant to begin with either but you guys were covering through other General funds or a serve money that's the other big play in their or Monies to make up the difference of those Grant of those salaries going up grass coming down and you haven't get gas so I don't really want to get into that we did it all so technically they're all approvable things we could just we could you're still going to come up short on some salary lines because between what you had budgeted from General COs in what the grant allocation was hoping to be those are weirdos that were covering 20% of we're now whopping 80% on top of that yes it would be exactly the same that 67000 but like I said we were talking ID that one I'm typically we've used to fully fund to pair then I went to go do most be like contacted Services coming out of the general fund we can take as much as possible and you divide 8 months for that. but it's still hard to kind of and the other grandmother gone so we've been it was partially funding so now that we have to go to the general for so there is an increase right there that Live Justin a grant program that was never meant to be a long-term that b i b l supply for staff play Under Pressure from the board nebulous question why is the title and niece are free and reduced lunch and Blues clean that questions for about a decade now with the with the state it is basically how the part of it is the state and how they wrote their application to the title one way back and they just linked it to the percentage of free and reduced never looking at like other performance of the school we're all in impacting that because that's where everybody I don't know if that's heard about it but during covid-19 spread to New Year's ball lunches were free so nobody was filling out application and we would like either going to change the formula mechanism by which you will wear the grants or what are you going to do when the deal we came up with well as hear the other catch you have to submit on October 1st our beginning of your data and that would dictate what I grant would be for the next school year so like this October one what we sent in for numbers would dictate what we're going and we do convince them that you should be taking more than one read you should give up more than one opportunity throughout the school year and 42 of the year they did allow us to resubmit in the spring to get another push out in bet they would take either of the two are numbers in into our grant allocation on that but now they remember you ordered that traditional ways we've asked for years about we really need to look at the formula of how the title one grants are allocated you know when that initial application was made by the bank it was on the late 90s early 2000 allegedly no not really because it comes from the federal government in a minute so the bad seven the money to the state Ad Agency they you know submit their application and then it gets better by the feds part of it is the fence also mean consider how we are allocating and getting more aggressive because I lived in a little school okay I had such a small population that if I was there I had a family of four move in and I couldn't convince them I would lose like 10 12 15 percentage on my numbers and I will I need my middle school that I used to work for you know the smallest of the four schools I went from one year being a half of a percentage point away from being able to qualify and school why to drop to the bottom of the list of 4 because my numbers were so variable because my all sizes and I just filed every appeal I can imagine and our numbers are down so sorry how to get these free and reduced lunch applications backup funeral and oh yeah last night it was like a 60-40 split meaning 60% of the schools in New Hampshire Workwear Title 1 school wise and about 40% of us just targeted Bissonnet do you have at least 40% or more that are qualifying for free and reduced lunches you can fill out an app that can be based on the X on the on the school district Graphics like a lot of Manchester schools are that way last part of his assist School in Moore school and then that's changed because of her within just a lot of I'm really hoping that they're going to take a close look at serious funding perspective yeah any questions Tamara karaoke Christopher there are needed kids were super yeah what's the story that's not a winter 3 days now it's keyboarding what part of it as far as the dirt work I doubt you're going to see him the other day that he was here not going in there. haven't heard hide nor hair are and Emily sent him an email today I don't think she's hearing back from him right now so but yeah we got the hardware to finish it I'm not sure I wasn't involved with the whole putting together so I'm not sure how what's missing but I'm pushing him tomorrow and see nothing's been sitting there 67 months now. I was wondering I ask you some questions about start the music update how to read donating supplies to other students it sounds like you're able to read it sounds like they should be in the budget and it was significant other than the years prior and maybe more than involved we have to use grant money for the grant money last year Student Activities money to buy a a couple more pieces of equipment there's a fairly good so I think it's just the increase in the number of students that are it's just it's bothersome to read that students are donating supplies to keep other students play that should be something that they're not going on buying whatever their allocations are given do we run whatever if if his budget is a reflecting things that are needed for extraction we should get any other questions Lexapro I'm just going to go down line by line like we've been doing going to start with the 12:00 instructional wages where is an increase there I knew Rita where I keep managers license specialist General talk about later is that not not the is included as part of the 916 do everything is contractual para contractual there is a new request for had to go down to this all the lines like that like no CD short-term disability Medicare retirement the bottom line is almost an exact percentage amount Valerie the being operating expenses we need some additional repair tires regular maintenance stuff then has 98000 MI client right now and is putting on about 200 miles a day set to continue like my car 5 days a week which is why we have to increase tires because of oil changes general maintenance next year and then we'll have to go out going to Passover so I believe that the report that I made was submitted to you guys the first line that I have is yes why especially transition services a student that has a shout in the special education transportation that is partly what we were discussing just now the next one was a student that were transporting the next one is the residential tuition that was unexpected but expected we know when you are special ed travel when I brought that down by 50% basically like are instructional supplies and testing protocols and at this time everything is current that could change next year but right now we have all the most recent asking supplies the next state and Savannah gas special education software daslight are our progress monitor our students and we keep them on track if there's a program that we have words that will require to use that part of that the new special education equipment with cat that's the same sometimes that's equipment that the physical therapist needs or specific equipment these are they stay the same our psychological Contracting Services that is the company that we used to do what 464000 just 38 I understand we have and we also have $80,000 steps taken so what are we doing with well we have been is already paid for so that's that does include that does include the driving the driver contract through with first student so there's the driver that it yes yes which is actually a little cheaper than Dragon Ball Z hiring somebody to do it and then of course gas by the band has decreased as well because it's on the road any other questions on the 12:00 the next one is 2115 Starcrest and not sting and Chris that they given us and then speech supplies we do it a little bit her testing Protocols are all crying at the moment since I'm helping you let me check. I'm passing Kris Stairway to Heaven and then OT supplies we kept it the same the beauty supplies is also in that line it is $90,313 which is an increase of $7,230 or 7.94% the next line Audiology contracted services in that has decreased by today that's required my services. The function is an overall decrease though it's just a 1500 the next one Vision contracted services and that's the same thing we won't have the need for at the moment we do have a speeding up new net will need the number that we need and then come here I just wanted to share a little bit about the stuff that you can buy our numbers have increased significantly since the beginning of the we went from when I started working here in 2019 we had 15 students on how you peace and now we have 52 currently in the system if you look at my sister's like 39 cuz it's not until they are qualified they're not actually I'm fairly confident I mean I got to her for a little bit over the break so they're coming in what's the what's the denial rate people referring in it coming back then you know what they're doing and the Pea they're coming back and we're not see much of the same you know what this term has a learning disability what it would make this week you're not learning disability so we haven't seen a lot of concerns I think a lot of that as of right now we have 2624 birchmont coming in preschool and we have a waiting list. Anita's murder rate 247% without any increase in staff and so our case managers are working really hard and I'm not I'm doing it. applications and our art groups are our case managers are back to back to back all day and students they not there. They're being sent you don't feel that we need manager and the way we presented it was it would be a is 9 / instructional specialist that if our numbers decrease you and TSS and work I don't see our numbers increasing our overall population has also increased which is when I started here in 2019 we have 220 270 now so I know so with the proposal right now I his managed by student Madeline has a few cuz we do some more that she's handling Aaron is doing a Stephanie if you spell Daniel Steve that I do this around them district and most of the surrounding District 11 so am I right now will be discussing this week how we want to look at things for next year if if there isn't any changes how're we going to restructure this and that we can meet in this world will not have our the day to get everything done I think every week it really doesn't interrupt call the student services because Wednesday I get into a into a routine and okay I see that once I went this time the next week is clean because I have to pick someone else in or in the classroom teachers to cuz they try to change their feet we have one teacher who is certified so he is actually providing services and we go by the back classroom because my certification allows for the work is grade and he's working with older kids that I can't work with just so that we can meet the needs of all the students and get them services so we're requesting and an additional case manager I want to see her tomorrow are our office person to do some of them are able are just so you know there's a lot of paperwork with that medication they have to be making all the meetings if you're on the other paperwork are riding on the porch they're scanning all the paperwork and they're sending it so that is taking its not taking instructional time out there doing it so if we could get a front office. messing up loading scanning all those documents that need to be scanned into the system call Dalton Hall personal site how do you fit all these pieces together in a way that makes sense I would assume two of the cases gate numbers are in cream you know we're working very hard to make sure that we're providing any other questions thank you very much and I'm fighting this up and I'm really trying to get on call the ring you get a handle on some of the things I think she talked about 4 or so so whatever it is made of spreadsheet and timelines that we spread this out according to priorities I did and that ended outing Improvement plan summary just so you can see what the process is behind all this if you want me to go down line by line but just so I understand the spreadsheet Winston stats yeah I know what you mean the budget does not mean it's included in your number or is it something I'm hoping down Road will be put into bite you and then it also kobaryo see what budget year is targeted for but we like just we talked about the boiler replacement and the cost that significantly increase even your two years though we're waiting till 2000 it's not like we can assume that section interesting but it still is a possibility of you know big dollars but also which I'd be working on the previous what worked on that they had boy was replaced with a Teensy in the lighting and stuff so smartly replace him assistance so that's another reason for the delay and kind and then you go to Walmart that's the big thing with the HV AC system I'll just generalized price for items here is it's a big dollar and we could actually do things that are little more energy efficient and get more funding for saying maybe even out with a better soon so there's a lot of items are there I definitely want to get the ball rolling the police to get some information on today I just got the building Opera management magazine the only two things in its solar and what is there enough funding to offset some of this stuff I don't know is it going to rain and we are under Fire where are you at present bring it on or nothing to 2378 a warrant possibly cuz we know this type of repair it's going to cost some money to know if we could somehow start building the best of the Ford so you wouldn't Best Buy near saying award ad 50 something does go if you know major it can be my thought was a little bit of a long-standing building needs that other legitimate and this year every single time do we turn to go close to a refrigerator unit what does the Anythink you've been talking about this for a while so the thought was if we did a deposit as soon as you're not something you probably going to be able to do that budget by making is Bremen in the department Capital fund you have a chance to talk with you so if you do have to spend in a year or two doesn't say but we never knew were so that was the idea. ready to propose any by which we haven't done all the pricing you haven't done with the preparations so on the positive side when will do big worries I had was the condensing units because they're there an Old Hag a cr22 I have since done digging and found is replacement gas and repair so instead of if we have a refrigerator shouldn't we have to replace them with you and there are repaired so when being something I'm going to say you can give her a pair and going to have a 20 more years but it definitely buy a spine to the emergency room big dollars available quite a bit and really the bottom line if you're looking at all of this is that a lot of these are major repairs that are 14 years old you know we haven't put a lot of money into the building per say because nothing has happened yet but they're aging to the point where they can and until the end Meredith did a great job at on all that information I'm sending this baby. The backbone and it's like we have a filleti's replacement schedule out like fill out to the next 10 years what we're planning on so that's why I put this the way I'm looking at going back to Kristen if you on your little the detectors aren't available we did we did we were able to actually repair the one that was there so that has been taken care of these aren't even available in I don't know if I can answer that honestly with the contractor that came that day cuz because it was kind of an emergency. What's going on two substitutes about Woodward and then but we're able to repair the one that said but they did say there's units out there. We got to replace that. yeah but they were telling me there that the company does make a replace them they just didn't have what they need that day so so I'm not so nervous over that no smoke detectors the only other thing that I reported his right to highlight that or items on that are already in my proposed budget for this year for next year and the only thing that didn't get in there but it wasn't short timeline was 328 where that as we spoke about last time I quoted that whole Southeast wall where we could do a name the one major section of these be done is appointed by is office so you not slide out and just do those entire Section 8 together if we want to go back road that way and that is not in my current location what is the request $50,000 for a warranty 50,000 that the other two items I can warrant and if two things to discuss how to get behind that oh yeah where we were saving money is going to especially this is a year we don't have a teacher contract for you don't help other things like that so basically you haven't to Warrant a to article war and your budget and answer this question but what's what's the advantage of dumping it in the truck instead of just putting it in the normal life we can deposit it at the end of the year in in the truck I just was curious what was the motivation behind adding it to the budget besides bring in the trash. The motivation for me and suggesting that was to get a need out in your community the chance to discuss it at the able to really highlight where you have not knowing your history you make it the back let's go one where the  to go with playground for the other thing was the flexibility all the things you have I'm here you're kind of nursing along some of them but at any time it could be oh my oh my goodness this failed and we really have to go for like what happened with the refrigeration I would I would explain in if we go ahead with a warrant I would think it would be a very good idea to put a very strong presentation around Zachary Wyatt only 50,000 and then something like that the capital Improvement plan extending out the show isak 300,000 just so people can see these other needs Angela making a down payment on it for start eventually I think that will be important living area with the telegraph we heard from them Melissa did say that you know they were experiencing some same budget increases as well like health insurance and dental most of their things are you know coming out of capital Improvement plans and you leave already bought a new fire truck left a specific. What they got feedback that we received the first time Cruisers everything $50 US the right number correct me if I'm wrong Meredith but doesn't the so when we word the word art that is taking 50,000 from the unexpended fund balance and this year we saw that we are Beretta so what we're actually saying is the set of returning to 51000 West be sending it to her car could you do a reserve that essentially essentially says you know any excess funds put in there I think I would recommend into your point earlier you can add money into the budget to cover some of this as well as do a want so if you're thinking that you know the need it really should be a hundred will you could put 50 into a warrant in 50 in yeah I think I know we'll have the teacher contract next year and do a warrant for that I'll be at this year answer questions yes thank you very much by the way I think Ellen DeGeneres ordered any questions or concerns the back entertain a motion to accept the consent agenda as provider is anyone online we have no one in the room so we'll give 9 minutes seeing none what is a nun session at a time where we going in there what's up what's up RSA that we're going under correct me if I screw this up around 8 I didn't think about you can turn on public under RS a 91-83 RS a 91 Dashie age to 90% 91-83 Roman numeral to AMC pick up Under Armour play 91-83 to AC on Tuesday and Tuesday Lansing Ocean State
