But again, everybody knew there were 10 kids smoking in the bathroom. So these were this is when these policies came about where that if there is no fire alarm activated, okay, because of an active fire in a building, the administration has the ability through policy, which the which Garfield Board of Education has like every other district has on the books um prior to me getting here, uh the administration has the ability to make the decision whether or not to evacuate the building or not. They're called non-fire events. Okay? It's very clear. It happens it it happens often in many districts. Okay. Uh it's happened here a few times already. Uh and I think when when we had SRO's in the building, it was very simple to do incident command, talk to SRO. SRO would would call something in um through their walkie-talkie or whatever it is, and uh things would get accomplished that way.

I mean, we don't have to have something right now, but looking at what's coming down the pipe of Senate Bill one, if we don't do something right now, I'm not sure how we're going to be able to make some of that happen. So, we were able to, and I think Andrew, you asked me this, hey, is this money budgeted? Well, there is money in an account that we can move. We were able to um if you looked at our finances from 2025, we were able to push some money forward because we you're a banker, you know how to you know how you can kind of move some of that money around.

Um that's what happened here. We had a uh we had a unit ventilator that we just talked about in school 8, okay, that was overheated. Um there was a smell of smoke coming from it. someone contacted um someone contacted uh the uh inline who is our vendor to say oh there's something going on in that room while other teachers went down to inform the administration. So, at in my opinion, I'll just say this is my opinion, at no time was there such an urgency that anyone pulled a fire handle or um whatever firebox, whatever we're calling it, uh that we had to evacuate a building. When when that happened and we contacted um uh our our incident command, which is uh Mr. Zara, contacted the fire department uh and that time then we manually evacuated the building.

Um, can you tell me about that process and and how these calendars have kind of come start to finish? >> Thank you, member Owens. Kind of a complicated and complex question. Um, we try to construct work calendars that meet the operational needs of the district. Example, paraprofessional. It makes no sense for us to have a par professional here for 12 months of the year. They're they're servicing kids, so they should be here during the 180 day. Kids are are here. Transportation, same same similar thing. Administrators are on 12-month work calendars. Those were designed in order to make reflect the amount of work that needs to get done all year long. Um, yes, meet and confer certainly had some input in terms of changes that are are suggested. Uh we have one this year for our elementary uh regist elementary uh attendance clerks. Uh we we found out that we're maybe missing some parents in terms of registrations during the uh during our breaks.

There was never an active fire. Okay. I don't know how it was reported. I'm glad it was reported that way. However, it was reported, but I would think if it was an active fire in there, I think there would be other things that had to occur whe rather than letting us back in the building within a few minutes because it was like 3° outside. So what what happened at that point was I made it very simple decision that that that policy now basically is no longer in effect where if anyone smells any sees or smells anything of smoke, gas, an outside fragrance that is abnormal, we are immediately evacuating the building. Okay. The law is very clear that if the fire alarm goes off and is activated because of something that's active in a building, you have to evacuate the building. The question comes when the alarms don't go off.
