The discussion on capital projects (items under B4) centered around the inclusion of potential projects in the district’s long-range maintenance plan. The Board clarified that while these projects were not immediate commitments, their inclusion in the plan would allow for capital reserve funds to be allocated accordingly when necessary. This measure aims to ensure that funding is available without the need to seek external budget sources.

The Board also took a moment to recognize the contributions of staff members who are leaving the district. The acknowledgment of a middle school staff member, referred to as Mr. D Roa, highlighted his short but impactful time at the school. Additionally, a staff member named Don was commended for his years of service and wished a happy retirement. Another staff member, whose name was not clearly mentioned in the transcript, was also acknowledged for their service and wished well.

Reports on vandalism and suspension were attached to the meeting agenda, although details of these reports were not discussed in the public segment of the meeting. The Board opened the floor to public comments, but no members of the public came forward to speak.

Finally, the Board made a resolution to move into a closed session to discuss confidential personnel and legal matters, with the assurance that information would be made public in accordance with legal requirements, no later than August 26, 2024, unless the reasons for non-disclosure cease to exist. No actions were to be taken during this closed session.
