So, that item wasn't informed and I just want to thank Nikki and Carrie and everyone who was involved in kind of pulling together these frequently asked questions. I know we had a lot of individuals at the last board meeting to make public comment, a couple of tonight at tonight to make public comment. Um, again, just trying to um share information so that that it's factual information. Um, a lot of the information on the FAQ comes from our board policy. So, it's important to know the board policy um to know that we have a policy and to know that we're following our policy. So, I appreciate the work to to put this together. So, thank you. Does do any of the board members have questions about that um sheet? Okay. Again, that was an inform item. So hearing no questions, we'll move um down to professional staff.
So I'm wondering if that role if the vice chair still works for you or that now that DEPA has changed jobs maybe has a little bit more availability if if that's something you a role you want to continue on or or what are your thoughts on that? So uh if Deepa if you are interested in stepping up to vice chair um I certainly would be open for conversation. We also need a secretary uh because we lost um Kate, right? And so she used to have that position. So I there is a benefit for me to continue in the vice chair position because I am still the only member currently on the comprehensive plan committee. Um and so there's some benefit to that and certainly if Deepa has more time and um we do have other roles if you will but Deepa if you have strong kind of preference to try vice chair I certainly would be flexible and um could potentially support the board on the secretary position.
[Applause] And that's Apple Valley High School. So if we want to gather for a picture [Applause] All right. Sorry. My fault. Thank you. The next school that we will celebrate the lone retiree from, our newest school retiring their principal, Michelle Pon, first retiring principal of Apple Valley Virtual Academy. So she I guess you take with you a lot of bragging rights like you were the the only principal, the longest running principal, the next up out of business services, Debbie Reynolds. [Applause] She spends a lot of money, I'll tell you that much. All right, coming out of Desert Nles, teacher Karen Morse. There she is. And teacher Robbie Parker. [Applause] Oh, Robbie's in the process of becoming a grandparent, daughter in labor, so not here with us. He made the right choice. All right, student services. Uh, coming out of the student services department here, education services here at the district office, teacher on assignment, Bonnie Bats.
We should find ways to create so they have time to go to the parks or go for walks in nature areas. Um in 42 uh the city should identify non-motorized routes from highdensity housing to the nearest park and nature areas. That does not mean purchase land. Just identify the route. Is there can they use the border to border trail? Can they use sidewalks? Do they have to walk on the street? Because we don't have sidewalks yet there. Someone moving into a building, an apartment building or condo, something. We should be able to tell them what it's going to take. Um let's see. Let's see. The next one is ensure that the um see the last one talks about um getting the different cities to um make natural features a a sustainable priority with strategies, actions, and plans. OSI's done some of that on some of their work, but we haven't seen that everywhere, and it really hasn't really gotten into the natural features world much, so we'd like to see that in there.
Um, because they're going to have their lights providing everything goes well. I don't think they're actually starting it until after graduation because they don't want to mess up the field and all that for pictures and um I know they have a date. I just didn't get the date. So, I'll give that to you hopefully next meeting. Um Clementine, they also announced they go through their burrow stuff, too. So, the Pinehill representative that does a lot of the Pinehill stuff um said they are dedicating also a basketball and pickle ball court in Clemington on tomorrow night if anyone's interested. Um, site council meeting is Wednesday, May 28th. It's virtual from 6:00 to 7:00. If you're interested, contact um, Mr. Kula and he'll send you the link so you can attend. Um, sports awards banquet. Well, I guess it's kind of like a banquet. It's from 7:00 to 9:30 on the 17th of June, and it includes all the sports for the whole year.

So um as much as I say that it was a challenge to take the first step on that next topic but um I do have time so I can support but if and if you want to continue as a vice chair I'd be happy to step into the clerk role if that's something you're you're saying you'd be willing to try either one either the secretary position or the vice chair. Yes. Do we have interest from our new members in either position before we move forward with an official sort of here's who wants to do what? Yeah. So there's a vice chair. The vice chair basically um becomes I think the for for me the vice chair is someone I need as a sounding board because as a via open meeting law um we can't discuss a topic other than in public meetings with more than one other person.

Last month, that was that statement was somewhere else in the document, but we removed most of that paragraph and just pulled that bullet point here. questions, comments before we go to the council members changes or suggest council member suggestions for changes I guess I should say. Would one of the council members like to ask questions or Chris I see a hand. The fundamental thing everyone at this table and listening needs to understand the natural features regulations that we have had for the last 20 plus years have applied to only those projects in the city that require site plan approval.
