And that's if the override passes. If the override doesn't pass, we're looking at a little over 3 million. >> It would be an additional 1.4 million that would that would be added. Correct. >> Okay. >> With the understanding that at least 200,000 of that would would be refilled when the enterprise fund gets unwound. I'm going to use that term. >> Okay. All right. That is that is helpful. Thank you. Um and so hold on. I'm going into the department budgets. Hold on. This is what happens. You said when you put together a huge document, finding what I'm looking for is like impossible. Um let's see. Sorry. Bear with me. >> No, it's understandable. >> Um, I did want to ask a question. um on page 26 where we talk about what the the folks that are under um the town manager's budget. >> Mhm. >> There was a position eliminated for um personnel um or financial um assistant >> and it says it was eliminated >> but it's that position has changed but it's still under your department though, right?
We thought that one was ball one. So, another runner, the fourth straight inning for Holliston. Another runner in scoring position. It's 1-0 to Rochi. Grumbach will have to escape another inning here. Comes the 1-0 pitch. Bunt? Nope. Ball two. Rochi shows bunt for the second straight pitch. So, two balls and no strikes. Holliston base runners really been getting in Jared Grumbach's head. He's keeping him on. It's 2-0 count to Rochi. He goes bunt and then chops it through into left field, a base hit. Salmon flying around third. He's coming to the plate. Here's the throw from left. It sails past Passalaqua. And on his way to second is Rochi. And that's one way to break the slump. The infield drawn in when he showed bunt. And he chopped it right through the hole at short. So, Holliston has the first run of the game, taking the lead.
In 2019, it was opportunity for me to actually start teaching um at West Valley. Didn't know what high school was going to be like compared to Anderson Middle School. So, I decided to do some job shadowing. In doing so, um it was my first interaction with him. Um to see someone in their element, um really just doing what they're passion, you kind of become marveled at what they're doing. So, what I witnessed was somebody who was super encouraging, um, very positive with the kids, very hands-on, and you kind of like I question myself, is this how it always is, or is this just how this is today? Um, and watching him kind of work his wonder and to inspire these kids. Um, and getting selected for the position that I was interviewing for, I realized the next year when the school year started, this is how he is.
Majestic Way from 3 to 6 and Brookree from 5:30 to 8. So um I just want to let our community know this is open to everyone. We love to have alumni come back and visit their school sites. There's always um yearbooks that go way back. You can see fun pictures, um you know, the the school spirit t-shirts from all the decades and just a lot of fun. So, we really encourage everyone to join in those celebrations. In addition, uh you know that we have a wonderful music program in Beressa and we've been able to expand um music instruction and art instruction for our students with our Prop 28 dollars.

We have the all district band concert on the 21st from uh at 6 pm and then the very next day on Wednesday will be the orchestra district-wide orchestra concert um at 6 pm.
Parents, staff, citizens of Chico to be on top of the ever-developing technology that is happening. It's happening at such a fast pace, it's hard for us to keep up with. Yes, Securly has something in place now to prevent these type of images being sent over the internet. But what kind of changes is AI going to bring? We constantly see development technology. Technology isn't a bad thing. I support the growth and development of it, but we have to be ahead of it. We have to be forward-thinking to prevent these bigger issues from happening. Again, I would strongly suggest we bring another stakeholders committee together to talk about how we want to be proactive when these situations happen versus reactive. Because if we are position of reacting, we're behind. Thank you. >> Thank you. Is there anyone uh >> Sorry, I don't know how this works. What am I supposed to do?

Is there any discussion or questions? I'll put it to a vote. So, um fundraising, how much do you guys have raised so far? We have like $6,000 to $7,000. So, you already have money in the bank? Yes. Okay. And how much is Uh we have 2600. It's not It's the last. So, because we spent 800 for the materials for the decoration, this means to cover all the decorations, the materials, and the equipment of the building for the year-end activities like awards day. And awards day from pre-K to uh high school award recognition awards. So, we got it covered. So, all the things that we bought can be used in the next few years too. Like arts. And we also have Yeah. Yeah, we all have those letters with lights and USB so we can use it. So, that was the thing that That's what it is.
Hannah specifically um from Rossville was like I just I don't want to get my hopes up again. Like every time I think we've got something and and and [snorts] this honestly um was going to fall through until SE jumped on board because um the the ready grant is m you've got to have a matching piece financial piece and if we didn't have a a you know I guess it's like when you see a three-way trade in the NFL, right? You got to have somebody to be the carrier or whatever, right? So SE became that that third partner um for everybody um to to pull it off. So appreciate all those folks um you know um and what they do too as well. So questions on that. Okay. All right. That's all I got under financials. So jumping into some facility matters, just things going on uh potential cra paving project um improvements um for this summer.
It really means a lot to see more of these activities going on in our schools. I know I appreciate it quite a bit. Um and I want to uh just do a quick shout-out to Dr. Krivickas and Ms. Pippa as well, as they spent some time hosting uh a group uh for a meeting about the Habitat for Humanity houses that are being, you know, built as we speak here in Lake Station. Uh we had a really good turnout for that meeting. And I think this was uh very informative and helpful, so I just want to thank you for, you know, putting in the extra time to be there to help uh host that meeting. That's all? I'm going to start making you go last cuz you steal everything. Mr. Tanerio. Well, again, congratulations to all the students, but I really like to take the opportunity to let Ms.
Correct. It just reflects the the change in title from um personnel financial assistant to executive assistant for projects and procurement. >> Okay. Because um there might need to be a change on that on page 26 on the uh >> the book. >> Okay. because I tried to show it for, you know, FY26 going from one to zero on the personnel financial assistant and then with the executive assistant going from zero in 2026 to one in 2021 to show that that offset. >> All right. Maybe I'm I might have I'm trying to reconcile my notes with this with the document and it's not >> Gotcha. >> Oh, okay. I see it. Never mind. All right, there we go. All right. I just wanted to make sure that that that we weren't um losing a valuable member of our staff. >> Understandable. Understandable.
Comes Christian Snyder. He's 0 for 1. That's a strike. So, Grumbach will look to bounce back. So, Rochi on second now. Him and Salmon swap places. Comes the 0-1. That's a fly ball to deep right. Turncliff on his way back. He's got it. Rochi's tagging. Here comes the throw from right and it's cut off. And Rochi on his horse gets to third. So, number one productive out for the Panthers. Ben O'Brien is next. 0 for 1 but a runner 90 ft away here for Holliston. Chance to have a two spot here in the fourth. First pitch, a swing and a miss. Big hack there by O'Brien. He's at 51 pitches so far. Here's the 0-1. Swing and a miss, an awkward swing from O'Brien. It's nothing and two. He counts on the strikes his first at bat as well. Grumbach's got him in a 0-2 hole here.
Um, he's very ambitious. Um, if you see somebody as we go through life, you kind of need some life talked into you. Um, and he likes to talk life into kids. Um, as also as a staff member now, as he is my boss, as my principal, he hasn't changed his ways. um super encouraging and it's almost like when you show up to work and as you if you ever been on a sports team and you want to perform for them as a coach, you want an athlete to show up for you to to play for you regardless of what's going on. And he has that ability to do that to his athletes, to his students, and also to the staff members at West Valley. So, it's not only been like a great opportunity to watch him to be encouraging, he's very motivating. Um, one of the things that even as he does walkthroughs, um, he'll get on, I call it the soap box, he'll get on a soap box and he'll praise the kids and tell them, encourage them on an opportunity that he had they have in being in a strength and conditioning class and in being in a PE class, how they can better themselves through activity in sports and also through training.
So again open communitywide. Our students are so talented. Our teachers do a fabulous job um with them and so it's a great evening just to hear those performances. So, wanted to make sure to give a shout out for that. And then we're also in openhouse season. So, we've already had Somerdale kick that off, but we have several others coming up uh this month as well as in May. We have one tomorrow, which is Ruskin. Ruskin is tomorrow from 5:30 to 6:30. Majestic Way and Northwood will be on April 23rd. and then Brookree Noble and Vincy Park on May 14th. So again, it's a good opportunity to see this the progress our students have made through the course of the year. Teachers always share great projects that they've been working on. You get to see um you know, all of their good learning. Uh but again, I also invite all our parents.
>> Uh I'm sorry. >> I don't know how this works. What am I supposed to do? >> Just move it a little closer. Yeah, make sure you just project loudly. Just so it's live-streamed, so everybody can hear. And thank you. >> And just introduce yourself and let it rip. >> Looks like your mic is off. Can you push the button that says push? There you go. >> I can push a button. Um my name's Wassinger. I'm here speaking tonight on the same issue that Val talked about. Um so I've prepared. Um You say that you're here to support us, but what about when your laws would harmfully contradict each other? As of now, teachers are mandated reporters, meaning they're required to report if a student is in danger to themselves or others, including self-harm and suicide. This is written protecting us and our safety. This proposal will do the opposite.
The committee agreed to utilize capital reserve funds to initiate the replacement process. Does anyone have any questions? >> I have a commission >> um >> more comment to just for clarification on capital projects. Uh Mr. Uchi, my understanding those funds are dedicated strictly to capital projects. Can we transfer those for in for instructional support or for any positions that we might be missing? >> No, we may not. We have to use it for capital projects. >> Thank you. I just want to make it clear because we're going over this these capital projects and might come to mind that you might think, well, these are optional. We can take that money and use it elsewhere. We cannot. That money is earmarked for capital improvements. >> You just read my mind, Commissioner Paris. I was going to actually ask the superintendent the question because we're we just got through a a finance report saying that we we're going to have a shortfall if you know 11 positions.

We're trying to raise money too to add on to We don't want to leave just a little money for next year. Because I think they they use the seed. So, they only have the 4,000 for three years. So, this is the balance at the the end This is their balance at the end of the year. Okay.
Those quotes are due on Friday. Um invited um five different uh firms. um had three show up for the pre kind of project meeting. Um typically you call it a pre- bid. Um the the budget for the project would not be at a bid threshold. So I called it a pre-quote meeting. Um so expect to get those numbers Friday. Um if they come in within that budget, uh again I don't want to say that in a public meeting what that budget would be in case there's any of the contractors watching. Um but um if it comes in kind of where we think it would um hopefully um I would have that as a revision. I wouldn't be able to have that on the agenda obviously um for Monday night. Um but that is to do the um road from um basically the main drive here on the north end um coming in off uh 100 north um to basically the edge of the concession stand building um also included.
Pippa know how how glad that we finally got to this spot. It's been It's been a journey for us. But um I have 100% no problem that you're going to do an amazing job.

I can't wait to work with you as a superintendent. Congratulations. Thank you. Thank you. Um everything they said with a little extra, right? Um thanks for being here uh online, in person. All the kiddos again, uh if you watch this again, congratulations. Um peeps. And uh I've been I've worked with Ms. Pippa for uh 2015 is when I started doing SROs at Lake Station schools. Um we hit it off pretty well. We worked really well together right off the bat. And I've called her peeps ever since then, so it's not a disrespect thing.
>> Okay, let me now if anyone else has any questions, you feel free to go and I can find what I'm looking for. I was looking for the departments. I had a couple just questions of um departments that have increased changed By the way, Michael, I have to applaud the fact that you've got that budget uh book done. >> Um, thank you. >> So, thank you. Thank you for doing that. >> Well, thank you. >> A lot of questions. >> Yeah, a lot of uh a lot of work from, you know, many many folks went into that. U you know, that being said, it's not a perfect document. I I did I could have continued to work on it and continued to work on it and refine it. Um but I felt it was important. I I will continually iterate and not finish it. So I figured it would u would be good to go ahead and get that piece out.
A big out, number two. Infield drawn in for Ashland. 0-2. In the dirt, it gets by and Rochi is going to jog on home. It is 2-0 Holliston. So, bases are empty now, one and two. That's upstairs. Two balls and two strikes. 2-2 Swing and a miss. Fourth strikeout for Grumbach. Second time he's fanned O'Brien. So, two away here in the fourth. Bases empty. Chris Baker struck out on three pitches in his first at bat of the season. Here comes the first pitch. Just missed, ball one. So, we'll see how Ashland can respond in the bottom half of this inning. After a two spot by Hopkins or Holliston, excuse me. That one snapped in there at the knees. Ball and a strike here to Baker. Comes the 1-1. That one is popped up out of play. And it's one and two. Comes the 1-2. It's a line drive.
