Any questions? I have two questions. Um, we are approving tonight the um Nassau County Cooperative Self Insurance Plan, I think. Yes. Dr. Young, can you just explain what that is a little bit? Is that Yes, there's different ways that districts can do it. We're part of a cooperative with several other districts, which is a very cost effective way to make sure that we have workers coverage for
009all of our employees. So, this is part of the annual renewal for um insurance for workers compensation. For example, if an employee gets injured on the job site, there's certain protections that are entitled to be able to collect bargain agreement and work laws. So, this provides for that. And we're selfinsured through joining this through joining this crop. Correct. Thank you. Thank you. Any other questions? No. But I like to just thank you very much. All in favor? I. All opposed. Motion carries. So now we are up to public participation for non-aggenda items. Turning for the public to be Mr. Todd. Good evening. Thank you. So this morning we have a special meeting. question about money savings,000 on the $67 million budget. It's a noise. Uh I find it kind of strange and maybe a little
010dish that I read the post somebody affiliated with the school board saying the conspiracy is solved and the uh money will go to the new grounds. That's what we were saying. Why would this build the two new termin you would take in the budget of 273 out 2006,000 or being a post but they'll say that the money would go to the new so it's not what post you're talking about. So um so we can't respond to post not a question in terms of money. Um so when it comes to when it comes to the budget obviously there is a difference of the 69,000 that that we had mentioned before. the when you look at the budget when we look at year to year the budget of the entire district I'm looking at from the current
011year and I'm also going to look at the future in the future. So when you look at current year we have unexpected potential income and we have unexpected expenses that will come. So the year did not end yet. So to answer your question, if the money going if the $69,000 is for something for this year, it could go into into one of those those categories. Obviously, if we have an emergency, we have something. So the money will not go waste money. So when you look at the future, if money are not spent in the budget, they could go into the tax value for the top here. maybe go into reserves or go into the unassigned funds that we keep at 4%. The unfortunate thing about I say unfortunate because running a school district with a
012budget of $67 million. We don't have the flexibility of any other business that is running that kind of budget. So we cannot overspend. Um, so if there is an emergency, for example, last year, two years ago, we had the sewer problem in front of the the the high school. We had that expense was not expected obviously. um we add health insurance that can fluctuate and we don't know what that number is because the health insurance that would go from January to December when the project we run it from July to to June. So to answer your question where we go 69,000 miles to go and if at the end of the year we have a posit 69,000 which I I find hard to believe that it's going to be the case. It will go into
013one of those three categories unassign reserve or reduce the the but it's very difficult on the $67 million budget to to kind of get down to 4% plus 69,000. Just have a question. Thank you. We now make a motion to second. Thank you.
