It's a it's a classification not a pay. It's just saying whatever happened contract sub. Oh, because then it will already be in the money. counted. Okay. 15. Um, district will create a parental leap. Yep. 16. Yes. Yeah. We don't have the lead time. They were just going to word it in a way that let teachers know how you can save some of your days, but it's not gonna cost money because it just type into a document. District will create a parental leave package. Number 15, the district will create a parental leave package with sufficient leave time and option to reserve days upon return to work. That needs to reserve days. reserve. That means they're getting paid for their leave. Well, that's what they want anyway. The school board will adjust the policy. Yeah, you're paying people right. It's just increasing the options. That would be a policy change.
It's not money. 17. No money because we already have those. Yeah. when they're just options. It's a Okay. 19 19th. It's just about balance of class size. It's not but if you need another class that balancing like three teachers students sped sped kids and the e kids count as four. What about the other classes? Then that other list of options kicks in. So we don't think 20 doesn't include money. No, it's just about the kids. Oh, okay. Because we already have them. I get it. class kids, right? Let's say one class has like 10 kids class, right? Oh, we need to put five. So, it's not about adding an additional class. That's right. No, I'm just thinking like I think there's going to be unintended consequences with that one, right? Yeah. Nobody's saying, right? So we'll have to we don't even know if it's we're gonna we need something even if it just for right now okay to talk about that also the presentation the longevity no one presentation yeah about nurses and bus drivers psychologist what's that I'll choose the options presented by the committee Yeah.
Is that number 22 then? Okay, we have to add another one. Maria for 22. It's going to just say approve the Yeah. So, one of the options was I don't know if we want to word it approve. Um 230 27 and we just call it compensation and compression committee recommendations and we can go through each of those options. It would just say compensation compression committee recommendation. bus drivers. Okay. So, um I would like to have a discussion about the um options that require money and how we Okay. Okay. Daniel, do you want to have that conversation? As an option. Okay. 226 for the competition. 22 through 25. 25. Okay. And then 26 is the rip stuff. 26 is the What did I just miss? What are we talking about? 22 to 25. Oh, you're separating them. Just the whole package. Okay, Maria separate one would be the bus drivers.
Do them in the order that you presented them on. Nurses, psychologist, facilities. So, bus drivers is 22. Nurses is 23. Y is 24. Facilities. What's 23? Nurses. sites and 25 is facilities. 26 languages. No, no. I was just thinking that myself. I'm like, it's just So, what is it in relation to rift? How do you want the option to read? There is not anything now in the district for reduction in force. So, for the specific option though, wording I don't want to read six pages of protection. It's basically prioritizing employee groups, some groups are not included. So there's okay. So I guess we just label it riff and everyone's going to know what we're talking about. Did everyone see that? We could language in the communication. Okay. Is it on February 12th? So, as a facilitator, we never addressed that through anything, our interest, our processes.
And I'm just curious, maybe I missed something, how that came to be from our interests and then we post everyone was supposed to read it and then the lawyer sent it back and we post it again with the lawyer information. Yeah. We talked about how if anyone had any issues with any particular language to read it and bring it up in the meeting did. Is any is everyone okay then with adding that as an option the reduction in force? Apparently there is nothing in the district as policy. Okay. Procedure. Okay. Um let's just quickly do I want to do a consensus vote for that. Are we okay with that? Adding that? Yeah. Amy, are you okay with that? We didn't discuss it as a on a meeting. We just just said read it and provide feedback. But there was no discussion. I talked with Diane earlier today about an option that I wanted to bring to the table and she said that has to be in the process has discussed part of the interest just to go through the whole thing and to hold off until later.
So what was your option? It was nothing that we that relates to what we were discussing ever. So at any of our meetings memory was that we we did because he visual learner it was right there. He wrote it all and so it needed to be taken back for the feedback from the attorneys, but it was one of the groups. Like we went over it. Yeah. I The reason why it didn't end up on a poster is because it's like four pages of guidelines and I'm not going to write that all out and so we just talked about it in summary. We decided that it's within our scope. Everyone said, "Okay, we'll look at it as an option." It was sent to the lawyer. And again, the reason why it's not up here is because it's it's just very long. Okay. So it felt like policy writing too, not just as a procedures.
That was my my my reason. I remember you bringing it up and saying please read it because I don't want anybody to say we didn't discuss it when it's time to to but I don't remember a full conversation about that but it was it's there provide feedback and then we received the feedback from from the lawyer but I don't remember having an entire discussion about it and for me it feels like policy. I did set the policy and he said, "Oh yeah, our policy doesn't have all of those steps or guidelines that Daniel um proposed, which I think is good to have. I just don't know. For me, it feels like more polic policy writing rather than procedures." Okay. Mike, so remember in in the policy documents that we have, there's policy that's board approved and then there are regulations and there exhibits. So regulations aren't required to have board approval um because they're the procedures, right?
So in my mind, this would fit as a regulation. Um but we can get additional guidance obviously once the proposal is fleshed out and then that would be what would guide our process and that could be changed in the future. Yeah, it also I mean um all of this language has come from other school districts professional agreements and so it would because it's all designed around it's not guidelines for the district in regard to like everything like this person does that and this department does this and the superintendent will XYZ it's specifically related to staff's protections notification deadlines call back order so it would be a benefit of working in the school district is RF protections that's why it belongs in the professional so you think it's under working conditions. Yeah. Or or benefits. Okay. Kelly, also Oh, there's also other recommendations that are about policy specifically, including the um one about adjusting the medical I mean the leave bank, sick bank to include parental leave.
So, there's other precedent for changing policy. Yes. Well, yeah, we can we're just recommending to the board to so they can change it. Yes. But this this one is different. And I think knowing that it's not policy but a regulation or an exhibit that that gives me that piece of mind because I did read the the riff and I I like this because it's clear. It's clear it's it's follow and I I do think that we need that in our district. So I just wanted to make sure that we were not overstepping and writing policy. But now that is explained that is will be a regulation then. Yeah. And I just want to make sure everyone is a in agreement with what he found from the other school districts because we did not as a team develop that. Um I guess that's where I'm coming from.
Um if everyone is okay with that, that's your decision. Did you want to say something? I just do. We currently have a uh is there currently a a riff policy if this is going to be a regulation exhibit? Okay, that's my only question. Thank you. Thank you. Okay. So, let's come to consensus with adding that one. Um, are we in agreement to add um the information that Daniel sent to all of you in um what's it called Daniel? The chat beyond me Rebecca. Okay. Okay. Great. Um in the past what we have done is we have taken the options that required money and we tallied them and weighed them. Um I think I want to have a little discussion first on each of those before we go ahead because you might learn and this is going to take some time and it's okay. Um, just remember, I think our limit is what, two minutes of talking.
So, if you're one of the ones talking, remember our norms that we developed. It's a two-minute limit. Um, but I think it's good for us to hear what people have to say about um the options that require finance. Now, we don't have to discuss all of them because some of those are kind of easy to understand, others may not be. Um, this is not really the time for long elaborated stories, but if you want to say something that you think is important within that two-minute time frame that you all voted on, feel free to do that.
So, any conversations about um I want to give you about maybe three minutes just to look over the ones we highlighted, think about maybe any questions you have or something you want to say, and then we will we will share out. So take about 3 minutes to look over those. In the past, didn't we also cost out each of the different options as we because we have a reality of how much money we have to spend, right? Our disposable income, if you will, right? And so we need to know the costs. Like we in the past didn't we have a spreadsheet that was like this option cost this much, this option costs this much. So I have a spreadsheet and some napkins. Dorothy, I think we can get it done. Although Vanessa is not here. So um if I get the numbers wrong, you know, there's a reason I'm a a teacher, not the business services director.
Yeah. Check. Do you bring your napkins? Okay. Um that's a document we use. Is it in the folder? No. Do you want to put it in the fold so you can see the document too? So Daniel, you have a money amount for each of our options that require money. Not every single one, but the ones that um most of them, I would say. Yeah. And then Dom, you're going to double check that for us. Yeah. So I have I have I have numbers for all the easy ones, I guess. Okay. Okay. Well, let's That very first one is not an easy one. No, I don't have a number for that because it's literally adding what? Eight to nine days of work into the calendar. So, okay. Do you want me to tell you the ones that I have numbers for? Yes. Here, I'll start with option seven.
Yes. Option seven at 20% would cost $265,7842 cents. 784 42. Sorry, just to go back. Can um I be Oh, sorry. Can I be reminded of how much money we have to work with? We have $200,000 allocated to compression and we have um hold on. We have $724,000 to in general that does not have to go towards compression with about $80,000 of float is what I would call it that we don't want to spend. But if it was absolutely necessary, we could dip into a little bit. 700 and 724 386. Is that the number Vanessa gave us? Yeah. Okay. Dom. When you say that float money, were you looking at carryover? No. Okay. Yeah. I don't remember why she said we don't want to touch it, but we could. I forgot. Yeah. So, uh, Vanessa said the number is actually 750,000 now. She rounded that up to 750.
She felt comfortable with that number. So, um, instead of the 724. And then, yeah, we've already discussed about 97,000 in compression. Uh, but the rest of that would either go back to uh compression or um gosh, what did she say? Yeah, those recommendations. Longevity. Longevity. Thank you. So out of the 200,000 90 that 97 would that's the that's the recommendation so far. Yeah. Yes. Yeah. So um let me ask you this just for our tallying and weighing um are we in agreement that the compression ones we do. It came from the committee and they gave us that $200,000 back. Are we in agreement to accepting what that committee came up with? Well, I think that's why we put it in the options, right? To be able to thumb and make sure that everyone's in agreement. I was just wondering if we just wanted to automatically um accept those three um because the committee came up with it.
I I don't know. And then we can change our longevity percentage to match the amount of funds we have left over. For sure. I was going to say cuz since those dollars are already allocated in the PowerPoint, Eve could add those to that list and then we know how much we have left. Were you there anyway? Yeah. Well, we to discuss the psychologist one. Okay. Who's we? CA. Okay. Go ahead and discuss. Can we stick with this one and then we don't Okay. Well, let me do a consensus vote on first my suggestion and if it if there isn't a sideways then we won't follow my suggestion. Okay. So my suggestion was let's come to consensus with approving the compensation and compression committees recommendations to pay the nurses, bus drivers and psychologists addition and yeah facilities additional money that comes out of that $200,000 which the total was $97,000.
That would be minused from that $200,000. And that proposal is to accept it as is the way that Yes. That's what they presented to us. They're giving us the $200,000. Wait. Are we voting on to accept it or are we voting on to consider accepting it? I'm saying if we can accept it then I okay I am saying if we accept those three as recommend for as recommendations when we do our tally they won't be tallied they won't be part of our tally because we are accepting their recommendations and just to review the total is 97,460 which is that additional sort of chunk from the compression allocation, right? So, it still leaves us with another 100,000 to work with, right? Okay. So, consensus. If not, then that'll be part of our tally. And are we bundling them all? We're not splintering. No, we're not going to separate them.
Okay. Well, sounds like Okay. So, agree with that or no? Okay. Okay. That's going to be part of our then we will tally that. So, I think we have a total of I h I am wondering can we separate them and see if we can approve them that way? Yeah, because I I don't know. It's daunting to me to be like, "Oh my gosh, now we have to go through all of those and the other ones, too." When it sounds like, and I could be wrong, it sounds like the only one that people don't want to automatically approve is number 24, which is the psychologist one. So I'm wondering if we could just decide like option 21 consensus. Yes. No. And we can just read it directly from the slides. Yeah. So I'm not aware of your private conversations. So that's good for me to know.
So yes, right now. Would you like for us to do it separately? And would that change it? Sure. I can read the recommendation. Okay. You want to Okay, Kelly, you're going to do the recommendation? Sure. Okay. So 22 is for bus drivers. It says $1 increase for bus drivers, including transportation staff who also drive. The cost is approximately $46,000. The staff who also drive. Yeah. So, if you don't agree, you're going to say no. If you do agree, this is to actually approve this recommendation which came from compensation committee. You would give a thumbs up. If you can live with it, it's sideways. So, it would be the dollar plus any additional payraises, right? Well, we haven't approved the pay raises. So, correct. This is outside of another pay raise. Yes. This is to address specific populations that have or you want. Can you say one more time?
One more time. Say slow because Maria's typing. Oh, okay. Or hopefully. Or who? Joel. Who's typing? Oh, Eve. Okay. I'm the problem. It's me. Okay. $1 increase. $1 an hour increase. Excuse me. You could copy this from the slide. E. Yeah. Can you just share this so I don't have Yep. Thank you, Eve. You got it, Eve. No, here we go. I just sent it to you. Thank you. You're welcome. Okay, Kelly. Okay, go ahead. $1 an hour increase for bus drivers, including transportation staff who also drive. Do you want me to say the cost as well or just the recommendation? What slide you're on? slide five and then I can just copy it. Perfect. And it's just the first bullet. I don't think we need to include the money in the recommendation. We don't typically do that. What is the cost? 46,000. It's on that spreadsheet from that and that's out of the 200,000.
