But yes, we left some head space in there just to as wages go up and such. But um so this agreement we will start maintaining mom's fleet there through our garage and with our mechanic. Um the benefit that I think we get from this just like the shared services agreement with the with the township on IT services is it helps allow us to employ full-time staff members and help with retention and getting quality people in those those positions when we got a full-time position to offer rather than than a part-time position to offer
026there. So helps us send that in able to provide those services qualified parttime people end up losing ourselves that's all on site at Springfield.

And basically what we have to do is I have to set up its unique fund it own fund so the auditors can see that I'm putting money in there based on that retirement schedule that
030our underwriters cover. And then in September of 27 we'll make a one-time payment of 11,260,000. So by by September of 27, I better have 11,260,000. The good part is we never put this on a board until the authors recommended it. So have been in the last couple years. Y >> So >> and there's $9,155,000 in there accumulating as of we speak. >> That's right. That's right. So we got two more and we'll get the magic number and then we'll pay. that was part of the whole we built the high school. It was really unique and at the time President Obama came out with this build America bonds QB all kinds of different kind of financial tools that we could get involved in was way above my pay grade. But the fact that this actually helped
031because the fact that we could keep this money on our books and make interest that really helped us financially.

And your benefits are tracking close, but you'll see down here in personnel services, that's people. You'll see a spike. Okay? And that spike has to do
032with the recent negotiated agreement with our certified teachers. uh at the beginning of the year we did not just didn't know how our contract would be structured. So uh the budget didn't have that reflected. The good part is uh we're going to end the year as expected. Uh the 5-year forecast that K12 um we're going to submit that next month for board approval and I'll submit it to uh the department of education all that too.
