Um, is there any discussion on the topic? >> So, no, I just again, you have the opportunity as a member of of the school committee to send someone in mystead if you prefer. um that's how the the charter is written within the the collaborative. Uh it's really the um school committee member or designate which is the superintendent typically. But listen, if one of you wants to go to the accept meetings um twice a month and online and in person in Nic feel free it's fine. Um you can take my spot but typically no it's the superintendent who is uh sent uh to represent the district. I make a motion to appoint uh superintendent Adams uh as our uh appointment to the accept second. >> Thank you. >> All right. U any further discussion? >> All in favor? >> I passes and Jim just say that you know should you find a designate that you want us to designate some point during the year >> right?
And so um peer review uh firms are selected. Um they're engaged and they provide written comment. They attend the hearings. Um and that hearing process progresses through each one of those topics. And um what we try to do when we're representing the board in that case is is uh sketch out exactly how the entire process is going to take place from day one forward. So for example, we know that there's going to be traffic reviews. We know that there's going to be storm water reviews. And so let's figure out who are those people going to be that are doing it. How long will it take them to provide their comments? And which night are we going to hear them on? um just for structure, right, and to make it a more efficient process. And so that's sort of the phase two. And uh in the memo, I've just sort of outlined, you know, kind of the standard timeline for all of that.
Um, is there any discussion on the topic? >> No. I just again, you have the opportunity as a member of of the school committee to send someone in mystead if you'd prefer. um that's how the the charter is written within the the collaborative.

See >> Section 30B. >> Thank you. And I'll be Do we have the current contract with Snow so we can look at? >> Yes, I do. I'll send it to you. >> And we've done we've used a lot of that stuff, right? Who did >> that the boiler request for? >> yeah. >> Okay. I noticed we had a sister in charge. >> Yeah, we we've had a lot of stuff going on. >> Cuz there's I mean, So, there was just like a fuel surcharge and I was like, I know gas went up or we, you know, is that not included in your original bids? >> Maybe not. >> Well, but don't those contracts frequently have allowances for the fuel surges where if it's more or less we could even get a credit. So would the snows contract have a similar thing and that's where the >> I'm looking at it.
>> Our PTO's have a really great footprint. So, I've liked all the PTO sites >> and they seem to have more I guess the word is pizzazz or >> you know, you want to read it because you want to know what's going on. Um, and I think U member web is just feeling that the people we're paying just are taking stuff straight from the PTO sites and reposting it. >> Um, >> I guess in my head I think it's kind of a waste of an opportunity. I would love to see like book talks and kids books or you know kids authors or something promoting something like literacy. You know Newton school read so many books today. Join us in reading this or a principal reading a book. You know there was a principal um who read every night. She got in her pajamas and read every night to her school and all the kids got on Facebook to watch.
I think there's like a good video on YouTube online if you guys would like to go watch. There was so many presentations um that we had that day um by other CAC student members. So go check that out if you'd like. So this week is senior spirit week. So Monday was wear blue and gold. Tuesday was anything but a backpack. Today was dressing up like a senior citizen. Tomorrow is the senior trip to Six Flags. So everyone's really stoked tonight and uh Friday is wear your college merch. So we had our awards ceremony like we said on Monday so juniors and seniors got recognition. It was very heartwarming and exciting for everyone. It was it was such a great night. And so June 8th and 9th is a field day for all the other schools and we have some high school students going there to help set up and run it for them.
We feel that the um location of uh of Cherrywood may yield um a larger pool of prospects. Uh we also feel that the uh existing improvements seem to be uh more up-to-date and conducive for uh both faith-based organizations as well as other educational institutions uh that are that would fall under the permitted uh conditionally permitted or with the special use permit uh under the general plan. We also too here uh you know obviously uh believe that a single user for for Cherrywood is is optimal for a multitude of reasons. Um I think also too on Cherrywood with um pickup and and drop off uh circulation in the parking lot. the single parking lot would probably also another reason just for a single single user at this this campus.
And that's Dana Romero. >> Thanks, coach. Next up is girls tennis. >> Going to ask Coach to talk about the tennis team. away. Again, congratulations all senior athletes. Good luck in your all your future endeavors. The girls tennis team this year ended up with a very good season. Although our record didn't show it, we're seven and 11, but we improved greatly from the very beginning of the season to the end. But very proud of the girls, the way they played and the way they got better and didn't get discouraged. Uh we had a lot of seniors on the squad this year and I'd like to recognize them. We had Jihibra Aza, Aresa, Malak Aada, Mora Coleman, Savannah Cologne, Sharon Cruz, Stephanie Fleete, and Adrien Hernandez. Uh, I would like to recognize our most valuable senior and Stephanie Clee. batting a thousand here. Next up is Coach Alvarado, girls volleyball.
>> Should you wish for a designate you're happy to have the conversation. >> The challenge becomes right. So we had this actually I give an example Bob Trembley from Framingham. he was doing a residency uh for a year in Framingham. So, he was in every school in his uh for the year where he couldn't really get to the meeting. So, he he appointed uh one of his assistant superintendents to be there, but they couldn't vote on behalf of the district because it's either the superintendent or a school committee member. So, so you got to be very careful with how we do that. >> Correct. I'm still stuck. >> All right.
And that whole process is governed by um state law, obviously 40B, but also the state regulations on 40B. And so while I completely understand that any comprehensive permit is a very complex situation with lots of interested parties with lots of different motivations, the zoning board is is um required to adhere to the state regulations and what those say that they can and can't do. And so to a certain extent, notwithstanding, you know, all those considerations, the zoning board um has a role to play under the regulations. And so there's certain things that are outside the scope of their jurisdiction. Um some things um for example, for project eligibility, um like the uh the financability of the project, you know, who's lending for it. Well, we don't have any say in that. that's that's between the state, the lending agency, uh subsidizing agency, and the developer.
>> Should you wish for a designate, you have to have the conversation. >> The challenge becomes right. So we had this actually I give an example Bob Trembley from Framingham. he was doing a residency uh for a year in Framingham. So, he was in every school in his uh for the year where he couldn't really get to the meeting. So, he he appointed uh one of his assistant superintendents to be there, but they couldn't vote on behalf of the district because it's either the superintendent or a school can remember. So, so you got to be very careful with how we do that. >> Correct. I'm still stuck. >> All right.
I'm looking at it. >> And a lot of contracts would have different things. Force majeure, you might hear that. Acts of war and that type of scenario where couldn't be anticipated. You see a lot of contracts enforcing those all of a sudden. >> Sorry, I was taking notes. I asked this year. >> Yes. >> There's a fuel and material surcharge may apply due to market fluctuations beyond our control. >> Okay. >> Mhm. >> Okay. More questions on landscaping? >> Nope, that's it. >> Okay, let's move on. >> I don't want to talk about it. >> Small, do you have more questions in general? >> That was it. >> That was good. Thank you. >> It wasn't a big spending month.
it was their principle, >> you know, something >> that promotes like literacy. >> Um >> maybe a change instead of just copying what the PTO's are doing. >> Yeah. I mean, part one of the issues that I I would think would come up there is uh that the really young kids don't really use Facebook anymore, >> right? um they they they're on other stuff and so I think that you know >> YouTube >> the main people we're going to be reaching with a Facebook profile is going to be parents. >> Um >> but that's not to say that ideas like that couldn't work. I just don't know what platforms kids in our schools are actually using these days. I don't think it's >> because I want to know. >> Yeah, exactly. I think it's a lot of Tik Tok and and Snapchat and a few others that we don't even know about.
And then we have finals and then graduation and the grad party and everything. And I I thought like last time last time was the last board meeting. But again, I would just like to say thank you all for having me. I love being a part of the board and I'll forever cherish um the times I've had here and I'll definitely bring it forward with me for the future in terms of presenting and talking with a mature group of people. So, thanks again. >> Well, Emily, I would just like to say on behalf of the board, I hope I can speak for when I say this, you did an absolutely outstanding job. It was such a phenomenal experience having you on the board. We wish you nothing but the best in the future. And we do have a gift for you, but unfortunately it's tomorrow. Tomorrow, sorry, it got there was a little bit issue with the delivery, but it will be tomorrow.
So I were there any questions on on cherrywood? >> No. Okay, great. Uh so then we can move on to uh Pedmont Road, the former district uh facility. So this um property, this is about 22,000 square feet of of building improvements uh built out as as office uh located on 3.37 acres. Uh here the zoning designation is a for agricultural and the general plan for this property is neighborhood community commercial. So similar to birchwood and cherrywood we have a situation in which the current zoning designation uh does not match the general plan and uh any change of use on this property would require the conforming reszone process. Uh but that again that process is uh not a general plan amendment. It can be processed concurrent with any entitlements uh a conditional use permit or a special use permit. So the unlike the PQP zoning, the general plan uh neighborhood community commercial allows for a few different uses.
>> Good evening everyone. Uh I would like to start by thanking the CHS administration um Mr. Maini Dr. Robi U Mr. Doctor and board for their support program also coach for the health dedication. Also a special thank you goes out to the senior board managers that we had this year and at times Um, now I would like to acknowledge our seniors. We had a total of nine seniors this year. Um, all six starters were seniors, so we're pretty young for next year, but we'll continue working. Uh, starting with Jenna Aluro. Um, she will be attending Cornell University. Uh, Michaela Francisco attending Ruckers University. Jamie attending Virginia Tech. Uh attending university attending university attending home attending Ruckers University and Valeria. And now uh our senior post Francisco Congrats. Thank you, coach. Next up is cheer coachi.
Uh next item on the agenda, removal of the regula of regulation AD. 1-3R2, Assistant Superintendent for Curriculum, Instruction, and Assessment, Job Description. Shantel, for your benefit, we had talked about this >> at our last meeting. Um, this is something that was included in our policy manual, but really didn't belong there because it was sort of more granular than um than policy, but we hadn't put we hadn't framed it on the agenda in a way that made us comfortable sort of taking the vote on it. >> Okay. So we kind of kicked it down the road um to be able to deal with it. But is there anything anybody else wants to add on this? Just >> no. And and for context uh we base our policy manual on MASC master set policies and then we augment as needed. So a lot of these regulations came with that master set.
So, those are things we we just don't have jurisdiction over. Um, and there are a bunch of other things, too. But for the most part, the zoning board exercises jurisdiction over all the other local boards and bodies. And so, they can hear all of that. And so, they go through that whole vetting process with the peerreview consultants interacting with the developer. And that can take a number of different forms as it proceeds through, right? I mean, it can ultimately lead in a denial for lack of information or a denial for the merits or it can lead to a grant as applied for like as the plan is is presented or it can lead to a grant with a whole lot of conditions. Um some of you may have seen some of the comprehensive permits before um including the recent ones and these are you know 2530 page documents with with dozens and dozens and dozens of conditions and requirements and parameters and so there's a lot of work for the zoning board to do in that 180day period.

>> I don't really have any questions. >> I mean, I have a question but I don't think it can be answered but I'll ask it anyways. I know um Kyle over at the high school does some like pretty amazing things. I think they built some houses. I know they built some like library boxes. >> Mhm. >> Um is all that like all the I know this is going to sound weird but all the materials and supplies we're paying for it, like are those houses going to the elementary schools and the preschool or are we like donating them to other organizations? >> I don't need to answer that. >> Yeah, that's why I said I didn't think you had the answer to that but it was just um >> We can find out for you. >> Yeah, I saw that he did built a house and I was like, "Oh, I really hope that's going to one of our elementary schools." >> So, by house, do you mean like >> A little playhouse.
