It just it's basically a savings account. I don't have any really I have a 403b and I do not invest any of it. It just sits there and acrru interest and I contribute to it a certain amount every month, but it's not invested. I could put some of it in the stock market, but that scares me. So, I'm probably losing out on a lot of money, but I mine just sits there. So, I exactly what Daniel is saying is if you choose to put it in a 403b, you get to decide how you either save it or invest it. If you're not investing it, then when the stock market crashes, it will not crash.

I understand how to roll it over. I understand all of that. You guys are worrying as oh you won't lose money because I'm not investing. >> I don't think anyone's saying how it works. What are you saying Eve is that the difference between a 403b and a savings account is that if the company that you have your 403b with goes under or becomes insolvent then you will lose your money whereas in a savings account it would be insured by the federal government. However, if if these companies start going under that means it's like >> more than the federal government right now but um and again these are individual >> realistic risk to consider >> fiscal decisions of people need to make on their own.

So anyways, thank you. I do want to just say I I can't speak for the school committee and I was not at the school committee meeting that was last week, but I do know that Superintendent Adams had presented a budget uh and a restructuring to be able to fund capital projects. I don't know exactly what the plan is as far as when and how like all those moving parts, but you're right, Julie. I know that there's um I think it's about $12 million in capital projects that the schools are are that's been basically deferred maintenance. Um so I think Mr. Adams plan is to restructure the the school budget to be able to handle um the capital needs within within their operating budget. But I can't but I can't I I that is that is all I think I know. And so a little bit we're gonna we're gonna be meeting on Tuesday, >> right?

So, moving forward, even though some people may not personally like it, >> you can't personally it. >> Yeah. So, so you don't have a personal veto. >> You are here as a representative of the greater school districts determine what's in the best interest of the greater school district. >> All right. And I and I should say that and we're all on camera is that when you walk out of here, when you're saying this or you're saying this is that that is the message you carry outside of here is that yes, we supported this decision. It was it may not have been my first choice, but I I can live with it. Because if you're outside and you're actively saying the opposite of what just happened here, then that is contrary to the purpose of interest negotiation. It doesn't mean questions don't come up, concerns, we get positional, we want right emotions, all of those things happen and we try to navigate through the lens of the interest listening to understand and hopefully get some of those things answered so that people feel more comfortable when they move forward with a thumb up or a thumb sideways.

I don't think anybody's sugar coating this in any way, shape, and form. >> I Yeah. And one thing I think that's because you know I think points are being made about our capital investment and our deferred maintenance. Um I think we have to re remember we didn't have a capital line until 10 15 years ago. Um this town notoriously uh deferred maintenance for not just years decades. uh you know aside from you know a spat of um of you know some important projects I think in the in the early 2000s but um yeah I mean water manes I mean I'm not talking about buildings I'm just talking about sidewalks roads um just no investment um and so now you're kind of stuck where everything kind of comes offline at the same time >> and And we're known for doing things in bunches, right? >> We're known for doing that once or twice.

And if you don't or if you are here is that you have asked a question to better understand the option but not to just say no because you evaluated it through there we vetted it in a work group in this case it was through uh I don't is triad like a district committee or is triad okay >> a work committee group okay >> so maybe like the majority always wins so even if like something would negatively impact a minority ority group. It doesn't matter because the majority of people I know you're about to say something >> as a minority in this district. >> Can we let's move the microphone over here. >> Oh, sorry. >> So basically what you're saying I'm sorry people because I see the faces.

So the majority always wins. And no matter >> majority of what >> in any given thing like as long as majority of people are okay with it, the people that are in the minority, it doesn't really matter. I I would not say that because what I would say is everybody has an opportunity to ask the questions, get the information to better understand uh in some cases right we didn't do these options but in others we have developed our own options. So as we work through as a group on those that's when you're having the conversation putting forward some of the options going through this process to then say okay we have these options and these are the ones that we're comfortable moving forward in some cases like I was saying earlier uh with Kelly is you know like under the workload one and we're going to revisit that in a second we had several options.

Um and I I believe it is is it going to be in this room Michael? >> Yes. Yeah. Right here. So, um, and it's going to be a significant discussion about the override, the $750,000 and the impact, um, to to the community really. Um, I know that Mr. Adams has already done some restructuring of their budget. Um, they actually are have some positions that regardless of the override that they are going to lose. Um and and he's done several things. It might be somewhere around 12 positions I think that >> 13 12 or 13 >> um that are going to that are going to be lost are just to try to tighten things up as much as possible. Um and so and then another I don't know I think potentially without an override like 25 positions. Um, so that that would be really devastating um to the community and to to our schools and ultimately to the community.
