Comes in having a pretty hot start uh at the plate. She is right now s- officially five for her first seven uh in the first two full games. So, Kyra is swinging a pretty hot bat right now. Let's hope that she can keep this thing going with Domestico on first. And then Ruby's on deck. Yeah, four if if if four and five can get hot, this team can be pretty good. Kyra and and Kazanjian uh have the have some power in the four-five spot. Uh We are using the courtesy runner Yeah, it looks like he is using the courtesy runner. Uh Haley Buterman, who has got good wheels, coming in to run for Bella Domestico at first base. Uh Becket toes the rubber and she throws to Kyra. Who takes low, wild pitch. Buterman gets to second on the wild pitch. We now have a runner in scoring position for Caroline Kyra, who's up in the count 1-0.
So um does anyone have any questions about that? Um before we continue it, I think they're still waiting to get more comments from GCG and maybe other consultants. Is that right, Jasmine? Yes, it's a different peerreview consultant, but yes, they are they are still going through comments from them. >> Okay. So, basically people trying to um um take care of those things before bringing their team in in front of the board. So, um makes sense. All right. So, I'm sorry, you said April 9th. >> Yes, please. >> Okay. Um, I will make a motion that we continue 55 Tilton Avenue special permit and site plan review to April 9th. Is there a second? >> Second that. >> All right. And a roll call vote. >> Deep. >> Uh, Anna's not here. So, >> here I am. Hi. >> Oh, and I guess that would be actually not me, but Angel.
All those in favor of approving the agenda signify by saying aye. Aye. Aye. Those opposed say nay. Abstentions? Motion carried. Any discussion? Okay, carry on. Recognition, do we have any visitors or comments from the audience? You see pink fingers pointing but no. Mhm. Okay. Thank you to those that came. Um no presentations this evening, no discussion items. Um next we have the approval of the minutes from the March 23rd, 2026 uh meeting. Is there a motion to approve the minutes as submitted? I move to approve the recommendation to accept the minutes as presented for the March 23rd, 2026 school board meeting. Is there a second? I'll second.
Wind is howling here, folks. >> picked up. Kyra takes another one inside. Catcher does not handle it clean. Buterman is able to go to third and Kyra on the throw gets Buterman home, manufacturing runs with speed on the base paths. A wild pitch and error by the catcher gets Haley Buterman across home plate and Caroline Kyra is up two and oh in the count to Sophia Becket. Uh Clockers are now up one to nothing as the catcher is looking to go settle down her friend in the circle. Well, we'll take the runs however we can, Wayman. You know you know what? That's we we make them work, so put them on put them on their heels. So, Caroline's still up. Yeah, nice to be able to manufacture a run there, put speed in the base paths. Couple wild pitches take advantage. Great base running by Haley Buterman.
>> Oh, that's right. Angel Cassadian and I. >> All right. So, that has continued to April 9th. Um, typically for those in the audience, that is a a public hearing from which I am recusing myself. So, um, but as Anna's not here, I will did the share thing. Okay. So, next on our agenda is 240 to 260 Pleasant Street. This is the um the so proposed soccer fields at um Metro um I want to say Metro West and that's not um what name am I looking for here? Um oh Metro West facilities. Yep. Okay. So I wasn't crazy. Um and it has been a little while since we saw this project. I believe it was end of July. Welcome back Wayne. Thanks for having me back. >> And I believe that was due to some changes in the um the architect that >> there were there were a few changes that Well, just for the for the record, Madam Chair, Wayne Bell, Land Design Collaborative.
All those who vote in favor of approving amendments from the March 23rd, 2026 meeting signify by saying aye. Aye. Opposed, same sign. Abstentions? Motion carried. Any discussion? Seeing none, we will move on to the consent agenda items starting with separations from Brandywine Municipal teacher Jane Phillips effective at the conclusion of the 2025-2026 school year. This retirement notice includes the request for the leave of absence through um through through the approval of the out-of-state uh trip request from high school history club to travel to Cincinnati, Ohio on April 10th. Is there a motion to approve the consent agenda? I move to approve the consent agenda. Is there a second? I'll second.
Good heads up. She was aggressive. I mean, the ball didn't really get away from the catcher, but she forced the catcher to make a bad throw to third and then and then uh the mis- little mis-handle in outfield and so Haley was able to come home on that, so. Kyra fouls one off. >> Heads up, Down the right field line. So, I definitely had the scout report on her and if you are not keeping your head up in the right field territory when Caroline is up to plate, you are not being careful. She is definitely an opposite field hitter and she will send some foul balls our way. Ooh, she got hit. Tough day to get hit. Kyra wears one on the back. She's a catcher, she's tough, she can take it. Hit by a pitch, she's not going to be happy, I know that, but life happens.
I'm here on behalf of Metro West Academy and uh Connect Church. Joining me tonight is Roger Martin. Um he is with the church. uh he's uh the the site contractor with uh Green Leafer Landscaping. Um they're going to be doing this the site work on the project. So, Madam Chair, yeah, there were a few things that had occurred. Um I think when we last met, there were a number of things going on both sides of the table. You guys were going through a transition with your planner and then uh system planner. Few changes to the board. So, it's nice to meet new members of the board. Uh I remember Deepa on the board and Steve may have been on the board I think. Uh >> uh Scott I think had just right started. Yep. >> Yeah. And uh so there were a few changes there and yes on our side.
All those in favor of approving the consent agenda starting with the separations through um the approval of the field trip to Cincinnati, Ohio signify by saying aye. Aye. Aye. Opposed, same sign. Abstentions? Motion carried.
Wear to wear it there for Kyra. Again now, I wonder if Sasso will take advantage of the courtesy runner situation, especially since Kyra just took one off the back. I would think that he's going to get somebody out there to run for her in this situation. >> Yes, Bella and Rebecca Kreisman. He also has Lexi Meloni on the bench as well, I believe. Uh no, she's not here today, so. Oh, Lexi is not with us today. >> Yep. Oh, Rebecca Kreisman coming in uh with a little bit more speed than Caroline on the bases. So, the senior senior captain is coming in as a courtesy runner for Kyra. Okay. That'll give Kyra a chance to get um get get her catcher catcher gear on, so. Well, RBI opportunity here even with a runner on first for Ruby Kazanjian. They if there's a runner on base, she can knock them in.
So part of the thing that was going on on our side. Well, first of all um Reverend Jerry Scherzer is no longer with the church. He's moved back home to Pennsylvania. >> Um and so they've got um some some other folks uh that are running the show over there. Um and uh so with that um there was also some discussion as to uh what they were going to do whether or not it was going to be a synthetic field or a turf field. They had gone back and forth with that and then it was decided that it would be a turf field u synthetic turf field. Um during that time as well um there was a question as to whether or not they wanted to have another peerreview consultant do the project. So there was a little delay from the church's end in authorizing the work for GCG who by the way I think did a tremendous job on this project.
Any discussion under any of those items? Well, I'm sorry to lose people. Thank you. It's that time of year when people are looking around, but Okay. Um no action items, correct? Is there a motion to adjourn the meeting? Move. Adjourn the meeting. Is there a second? I'll second. I'll second.
Great bat and now we get a runner on second with another wild pitch. >> Yes. Kreisman takes second and Kazanjian is ahead in the count 1-0. Uh Ruby definitely has has power and and she tends to pull the ball. We'll see what happens today with the wind, but I I like our chances right now with the big bat up at plate. Yeah, the left fielder looks like the left fielder looks like she's pulled in a little bit, too. Heads up. Big swing by Kazanjian. She fouls one off to the right side. It is one and one. Again, Sophia Becket working in the circle. Not looking quite as fast as Domestico, but she's working at a pretty good pace. No, but if she can put one in between the gap right there, that'll score Rebecca. Oh, another wild pitch. Yeah, we will we will take this.
I say this as a fellow peer reviewer. So um but with that said yes that's been the delay. I wouldn't when I heard that the other meeting was continued I thought to myself dear god they've done this quite a bit with us and it's nice to be back. though with that. >> So there have been some changes. Um as you know we had gone through uh the process with design review uh and they uh issued their approval uh on the project. Um as part of that if the if the board would like I don't know if the board has seen the video flyover we created um which was which is pretty impressive and probably a good way to get a good visual as to how it's going to look when it's done. We can show that at time of lots in the end. But um but with that I can jump right into the project.
All those in favor of adjourning the meeting signify by saying aye. Aye. Aye. Those opposed? All right. Put your hands in motion, Carrie. All right, 5 minutes y'all.
Just a little bit little bit trouble with control right now. Another wild pitch. Becca at third and third now. Friesen moves to third. Kazanjian looking for an RBI single here to knock a run in. That one went in the ground. She's coming home. >> comes home on the wild pitch. >> Slide safe. Again, manufacturing runs with our wheels on the base path through wild pitches. So, a walk and a hit batsman leads to two runs and it is three and one for Kazanjian. Patience at the plate has paid off so far with some good heads-up base running by the Clockers. >> Very good. Very good. Making the pitcher work too, Ruby is. Becca wheels, deals. Foul ball. >> Foul ball. That's a it's a foul ball right in the box. So, Kazanjian gets to three and two here with two outs in the bottom of the first.
There were a couple changes as a result of the correspondence with GCG. Um >> let me let me just hold up just a second just so you're aware. You said you obviously remembered me and Deepipa Scott who is new on the board. Um Anna won't be here for this for this section of the project but um she has seen the project before. And new on the board is Paul Montesino who is in his car but is here to and I don't know if he I don't think he has seen the project before and um Angel Kazadian who um is our associate member on the board and also an architect. So um she won't she won't be a voting member of this project but she does offer um an input to the project and to the board. >> Terrific. So, um, so yes, it is a great idea to have, um, even though you've done this a few times now, but to have an overview of the project.
Clockers lead two nothing, no one on. Lorelei on deck. >> [laughter] >> And that was going to just get over the second baseman's head into right field. Nice little single, great placement there by Kazanjian. Good hit. Drops one in for the first hit of the game for the Clockers. >> too. Opposite field too. Yeah, nice piece of hitting there on a three-two count by Kazanjian. Waiting on it. Waiting on it, seeing it all the way through the plate, taking it the opposite way, dropping that in just in front of the right fielder. Good piece of hitting by Ruby. And that brings up Lorelei Collette. That movie's got to take second. Another wild pitch. And >> [screaming] >> another base taken by the Clockers. Great read there by Ruby. Collette, another kid who can really hit the ball. Runner in scoring position. Let's see if she can get an RBI.
>> Sure. >> And I was reading in the, um, the GCG uh, report um about this this fly over. I'm like, I don't think we've gotten a chance to see that. So, I think that would be very helpful. >> It's pretty cool. Um, I I credit our landscape architects in the office. Um, it's amazing with what they can do. Um, sometimes it's funny when they find out that I'm wearing different clothes with this face with what they do with AI today with these these technical guys in the office. It's pretty funny. But if you'd like, I can crank out the plans. Uh, I'll make this brief, as you said, if that works for you, Madam Chair, and the and the board. Um, I've been through this a few times. So, if you allow me to share my screen, >> you should be all set, too.
Ooh, something. Big swing there by Lorelei on a tough pitch by Becca. One and one is the count. Clockers up two nothing now in the bottom of the first with a runner on second base. Collette with a good rip to right field. Not fielded cleanly by the right fielder. Ruby takes >> Ruby's coming home. That's that's a great great piece of hitting and running. Great piece of hitting by Lorelei, knocks in the run by Ruby coming around from second. A good hot shot to the right fielder. That's a good piece of hitting there too by Collette. Another opposite field hit. And this brings up senior Taylor Kotch with Collette on first base. Again, two two outs with two outs. >> damage with two outs. You get you you you take advantage. A walk, a hit batsman a couple of a couple of singles and some timely base running by the Clockers and all of a sudden it's a three nothing lead here in the bottom of the second.
