001I now call to order the special meeting for the Lake Unified School District governing board on May 21st, 2025. Ro call here. Here. We'll now have a moment of silent prayer or private reflection. Amen. Would you please stand for the pledgece to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for it stands one nation under God indivisible with liberty and justice for all. All right, I want to thank all of you for being here today. Uh, first before we get started, want to welcome our newest governing board member, Mike Kern. Welcome to the board. Also want to thank all of you for being here today. Um, unfortunately that during special meetings, there is not a call to the public. Um, and and I'm sure some of you were hoping to speak
002today. So, I want to encourage you to email the governing board. we will definitely respond. Um, some of us also potentially will be available following today's meeting if we can if there's questions that we can answer for you. Also want to answer a question. We had received information that potentially some of you thought today's meeting was in regards to principal Jenny Sner and I want to address that today. Today's meeting is not regards to her, but I just want to clarify some things and and maybe answer some questions. What is going on with her and her contract? So, um, in our last governing board meeting, um, her resignation was supposed to be on the agenda. Um, since then, the attorneys, um, have determined because her name was not listed that her resignation, um, w was
003not accepted. Um, and that was between the governing board's attorney and her attorney. Um therefore she is uh her contract that she signed at the beginning of the year that was approved by this board is in good standing and is active for the following school year. Um there was further discussion about another type of contract and those are discussions that the governing board will have um with legal counsel but because there are attorneys involved um the board cannot have direct conversation with Mrs. Sner um is the governing board's attorney that represents the board and her attorney that represents her. But we just want to clarify that. Um and hopefully that helps answer some of those questions. Thank you. Um moving on to item 2.1, approval of the agenda. I need a motion. I move to
004approve the agenda. I second. Yes. Yes. Yes. Now item 3.1 motion for executive session. I move to go into executive session. I'll second. Yes. Yes. Yes. You got lost on your first day. All right. At this time, my motion to come out of executive session. I second. Yes. Yes. Yes. At this time, um I am very thrilled to announce to everyone here today and to our community that Dr. Rebecca Stone will be returning as the superintendent of the Lake Unified School District effective immediately. Um at this time she will be virtual um until further notice but she is returned effective as of today. I move to direct the attorney to take action as discussed in executive session and I will second. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. At this time, item 3.3, technology, the lights on, so
005make sure you guys hear me. Okay. All right. I can get my readers along. Okay. Um, item 3.3 in regards to technology is in relationship to the rate projects that were previously approved by the board uh back on April 10th. Um during that meeting uh three technology rate upgrade proposals were passed unanimously by the governing board. Since then, LHUSD was made aware of vendor um fees and a portion of a switch licensing fee that would not be funded by USA as the entity that funds that program. Um at that time, at the time the rate funding was requested, LUSD technology department was unaware that the contact fees were not eligible for the 80% discount. As a result, we need to extend the not to exceed amounts for each of the following year projects. Network switches
006district UPS replacements and the districtwide rate um WLAN upgrades and cabling and below are the uh charges that are uh changes that are requested. So for the switch um for the switch uh switch project the current AT is $7,320 and a revised would be $11,000. And for the UPS project, the current is 60,000 and the revise not to exceed would be 66,000. Whereas the um W Atlanta cabling project ENT is currently 152 and would be revised to 162,000. Um there was also a PDF attached that has a full breakdown of all the figures and the items that were not uh were not covered by USA. So the item lang says fee of $2,000 in UPS. That's an item that was not covered as well as under the next one down the W line and cabling.
007Uh the fee for 5,100 and so on. And also for the switch breakdown for the switch um there's a material fee that was ineligible. That was the $3,9007 which is necessary for the project to proceed. So really all we're asking for are those changes in what was approved for the funding from USA. So that's all right. At this time we will need a motion for approval of item 3.3 unless there's question for me and the governing board members. I do have a question but I'll I'll make a motion first. Um so I move to approve 3.3. I second. So um kind of the reason that this meeting was scheduled for today time is because we were up against a deadline when the rates will increase. Can you tell me that deadline? It was June 6th.
008June 6th. Okay. Prior to the next So, we couldn't wait until our next regularly scheduled 40. We needed to do something and we needed to do something. We know it's graduation and the weekend and all that. So, we needed to increase. Well, this date we don't know because the schedule increases will occur after June 6. So they'd have to re quote the project if we exceeded that date and primarily the um wide wide area network for the um road islands would have been impacted which is the largest project. So costly roughly $19,680 and increase. Yes. And this is the program that we use to provide broadband access to our students and internet kind of typography and all that. It does. Yeah. So, are these hard dollar contracts or is it time and material? Uh, time
009and material. So, it it's it has both, you know, the actual materials at the labor and everything inside of it. Um, the actual quote was uh provided previously. If you'd like, I can I have one with me if you'd like to see that. Mike. Yes. Yeah. Yes. Yes. All right. At this time, any is there any statements or announcement announcements from governing board members? Nope. At this time, we need a motion to adjourn. Item 5.1. A move to adjourn. A second. Yes. Yes. Yes. Thank you for being here. Have a wonderful day. voice.
