003Porta Junior Senior High School excellent thank you very much for being here today and uh first thing we're going to start off with is the uh designation of CIF representative sague uh these documents were uh uploaded uh for you to look at we have some change in leadership at a couple of the high school schs uh so these documents we certify every year to reflect who our voting members are for each high school when they they attend the league meetings so we have Kevin Cooper Terry Hernandez Chester uh Jason Hawkins and Mike B at Quincy junior senior and port to stays the same with Sarah and Brian Sheran so looking for a motion to approve those I'll make a motion to approve second there's the first and there's a second all of those in favor
004I I passes and let's um start off with the pcoe PSD local control and accountability plan for 2020 20242 all right um so we forwarded you the 100 plus page document um and am I in a wrong I I'm in the wrong year I'm what is this agenda because I was looking for something there we go that's that's better all right so uh the elcap that that you'll notice be attached to uh a lot of it's attached to the budget that mallerie's going to talk to here shortly um with our lcap this year we had Community meetings in all communities we submitted to our Union leadership for all three bargaining units for slist and input um and we're in a really unique time writing a new lcap when the LC cap was written last time
005we're in the middle of covid money was coming in in trucks and trains um and now we're in a state that's in a budget crisis so if you were to compare the 2324 lcap to uh where we are now for the next three years you're going to notice we have fewer large goals fewer actions to support them and I like to to call that keeping our powder dry uh so as the state budget fluctuates we can be flexible and pivot with it uh but in it you'll notice we are committed to supporting our um unduplicated students so our most atrisk Youth and that's the the purpose of this plan is to outline how we are going to serve and support those students uh but you'll also notice in there uh things like uh you know
006verbally our our pcta you know wanted to make sure that we recognize the the need and commitment for um compensation to retain our people long term so we made sure that remain from the last c cap into this c cap um from all the public forums that we had there was a focus on making sure we made a full commitment or you know a better commitment to our libraries um and in expanding hours so we wrote that in as an action to support literacy to support student well-being uh there's a big focus on social emotional learning that carried over from last he cap we have our focus on Career Technical education programs uh and uh you know reduce class sizes the big ones that uh that are core to our values our our outdoor education
007program uh there is nothing that that we believe strongly in that's been left out of the cellc cap uh we are carrying our mission forward um and uh trying to looking at it through a philosophy of instead of doing a hundred things so so we want to do 20 things really well um and as we move into the future and lcap is a living breathing document so the state figures out what they're doing and funding increases then next year at this time when we bring the elcap forward we can have more goals and actions we can add to it uh but it's easier to scale it down and then then add as funding comes because what you guys have been doing this for a few years know that when the state finds more money they're
008so reluctant to want to give it they give it to you in the form of Grants they give it to you in the form of you know really categorized funds and so you know then we'll be able to Pivot and add towards that so we're going to have a a public forum on that um and then uh we will come back and approve if there's no no suggestions for change uh on Friday at at the board meeting thank you this is the time in place for any member of the public to voice their opinion or give feedback about the plan you just discussed so we'll open a public hearing on it 42 doesn't appear to be anyone here that wants to talk about it so we'll close the hearing and as you mentioned we will
009actually vote on this on on Friday at our noon meeting that's yes sir what day is that the 21st 21st that also the first day of Sumer long day yeah first day and long day right long St year long Year great now we're going to move to our next item which is special education local plan areas also known as Sala and Jess good afternoon um so every three years the CDE requires that we do a full update to our special education local plan um so the T of seeking your approval for that update um there haven't been any major changes from the last time this was um done except for the budget obviously that changes year to years so that's the most significant thing and you guys have the attachments in the agenda want to
010see if you had any questions for [Music] me second no that's right sorry sorry that's okay I seeking approval this is one where we do a public hearing and then we'll come back and do approval okay so it'll be a month no no no you can do it all at once on this this item yes this item yes um state California requires public to give input on this so now is the time and place for a public hearing on this matter I'm going to open the hearing okay no one wants to speak uh we'll close the hearing and move forward and there a recommendation to approve this by now you can go I'll second there's a first there's a second any discussion or comments or questions there being none all those in favor I I
011motion passes again we pass it today so that won't be on the agenda on Friday and correct thank you very much thank you and now we going to discuss the Feather River adult education education Consortium that's me that's you um so we have a Consortium between Sierra County FRC and our adult ed programs we have one um voting member and if the voting member is absent then we don't have representation at that board meeting and so I'm seeking approval to add an additional voting member and that'd be Steve Dutton our program coordinator and teacher who is is up to date on everything and we feel confident that he'll be able to represent us well in this capacity so the recommendation is approval of stepen duton and Andrea Sarah s is that how you say yeah
012so Andrea will replace me um and then we'll add Steve Dutton in as an alternate if Andrea is not available and that's how it's worded yeah and it should be noted that um these agendas they're all under Brown act so if we have a conflict we still have the ability to view the agenda prior to and inform Steve that this is how we want to vote if we couldn't make a meeting we would have a we would have a pre meeting with him to discuss it um so yeah you need a motion yes we do need a motion I'll move to approve that those are the two voting members I'll second any further discussion or comments uh and there's first and second all those in favor I I now we need a uh measure B
013project update all right uh we have three measure B projects we're bringing forward today uh for approval one goes back to the discussion we had back about the the pre-allocated measure B projects that we were cleaning up there was some funds left over on Quincy Junior Senior High School allocation so we're able to do four more classrooms and another hallway in that main building uh so we have that on here uh for approval amount of 39,000 and change uh and then we have two on here for the gartland company that so when we did our Roofing bids there's two parts to the bid there is basically the the labor but we contract through gartland to supply the materials so that everything is warranteed correctly and so it's part of the bid Pro process and when
014we brought this forward for approval we we basically got the the action of roofing the roofs but there was no materials included and so these are um these are the materials for the two projects that are approved that will be happening this summer again as a reminder that um over the admin part of Quincy Junior Senior High School that that Wing uh which will be um resealed it's not a metal roof and then the entirety of pioner element and so what is the project total then between the labor and the materials I mean I see the materials and I can't remember what I'm gonna give you a ballpark the the Qs Pioneers right around 900k okay which is it's but it's what we budgeted what we anticipated and uh the Quincy Junior Senior High School
015ends up being about 225,000 yeah um obviously could be change orders once they peel the roof off if there's damage underneath but that's all part of the contract and those is that a summer project yes both of those will be completed this summer um we I think the the Quincy junior senior will go really quickly and uh I think they'll be in the final stages on the Pioneer project as long as production of materials doesn't get delayed and do we have a project manager that we're having to deal with again no thank you no we have uh we have a we have a contractor we have United Building is doing the project and then they they answer to Robin our person not somebody else okay they're looking for approval on these projects I make a
016motion to approve second first and a second anything else on this all those in favor I general fund general fund facilities contracts uh so on your way out if you look there's a storage container to the left of our media center uh we we actually had a a trip in Fall earlier in the year due to the carpet being old and um you know creating hazards so they're getting everything off the floor that's things being recarpeted with the firm carpet tiles so easy to replace uh so we've got that project uh it was under threshold so I approved them to get started um we've got Nevada children boiler the routine maintenance we do that every year current electric and alarm uh that's that's for servicing and I believe they're upgrading Greenville yeah so we've got
017that Joe Branch electric is coming in we had this a change order this is the Greenville generator project that we approved November that will if they have to cut power at Greenville High School we can flip switch and the entirety of the campus will be energized so they will not lose power uh that's entering the installation stage um DSA inspection uh for the uh concession project uh it's an insurance it's covered by insurance but the way it works is we have to hire the independent inspector the independent DSA inspector and then we submit those invoices to insurance for reimbursement and then the zp ofo uh that is the the DSA the independent DSA inspector for the Solar projects we've had I believe yeah so these are our general fund projects um and just oh AO
018AO did was our inspector but this is for the Greenville project um but he was our inspector on the foundational work of all the solar okay so that's that's where I was apologize so these are our general fund facility projects looking for approval I Mo to approve it submitted thank you a second second anything else on this okay all those in favor I I I and now the uh the proposed pcoe budget for 2024 2025 you're gonna present on both of them at the same time yeah same power yeah same okay you will though Dave you'll have two hearings you'll open and close the first one and then you'll open and close a second one and then we'll approve them on FR or you mean one for the county and one yeah you'll have two
019hearings but there'll only one presentation right okay so here we are again it just feels like you know the days are long the years are short right and I I'm just in awe of everything that we have done and accomplished and been through together this year so um so as I was looking at my documents I I find it funny this graphic that I use because it's in a circle right and and there's all of this motion and no wonder I feel like I'm constantly going in circles and circles and circles but here we are um at our preliminary budget and then in June June we have two so we're going to present today and then hopefully an adoption will be happening next week or Friday Friday yes okay um certifications of budget a positive
020certification will indicate the county office will meet its Financial Obligations in the current year and the subsequent two subsequent years the qualified indicates it may not and a negative qualification would mean that we would not me um that we would be unable to to meet the financial obligations so as far as pccoe P USD and CCS we will all have positive certifications um going through doing the county first I just wanted to Highlights um you know I know that we've had this document up here before but I don't know if I ever specifically called out the new programs and the new services that the county is um supporting the district and so the snap Ed Garden hi hi specifically a program that we had contracted through Plymouth County um years ago that funding has gone
021um and we fund our garden managers out of that um but the the county is still providing that service for our district Gardens um a new one also was our technology supervisor our grant coordinator and our student services director um mind you some some of these also do have a shared um cost with USD oh I'm going to see if I can minimize did that work Dr it up I think you need to do it on this one okay um so our projections and for the 20 sorry you the years didn't change so for the 23 24 is 4.8 million with expenditures of 4.7 leaving a net increase in our general fund by 112,000 it's actually good that's that's really good yeah I had everybody check my work but um and again it it's it's
022what it's showing you is right at this time and so we don't have anything huge encumbered um and you know we on the county side most of our payroll has have been paid by now so I'm pretty confident in our county numbers um our revenues decreasing slightly next year and again due to the fact that it's really hard to get when you have these threeyear contracts or threeyear allocations and you are constantly kicking revenues down the road and so you know that it's going to go down but you have to also project out almost with that spending plan and so it's it's really hard to identify those those large revenue streams um and then some of our expenditures knowing that we still you know we're our literacy Grant is going away so that was you
023know 700,000 right there expenditures that we won't have for next year um and again in the subsequent years us having a net increase to the general fund the key considerations for pcoe um I won't list them all but you know I feel like a lot of these considerations are they're always ongoing for us here in plumis County uh one thing to note in those revenues is our differentiated assistance that the county qualifies for went from 200,000 to 300,000 so that's just extra 100,000 of support that we can provide um and then again you know it it looks the revenues do look great the expenditures look great because of these higher grants that we're getting the more administrative work that we do the more indirect costs that we have um not to say that we will
024be charging the programs full and direct but I think we're at like 23% some something outrageous on the county side that we could take um mainly for the larger grants I would say we would utilize those funds but but not for the smaller you know that it all gets sucked up with salary and benefits okay PD um those are the correct years um so as you can see as of right now uh in the 23 24 projection our revenues are sitting at 37 million with expenditures at 40 million that's a transfer in of almost 700,000 and I want to I want to um I pulled a report because that had me troubled and what I do see is in our budget we still do have quite a bit encumbered for um capital projects that haven't
025been completed um a large number of materials and supplies that we probably won't pay out so I can I would like to say that um when we report um end of year close out we will not be coming out with $40 million in expenditures what do you think you know it's really interesting because I did do a deep dive just a little bit ago um and our actual to date is 33 million so we still have 4.9 encumbered so 37 we have one payroll run that we've got to do well but that's still almost a million dollars in to pay out right so right so that's promising lesson learned um and so what this does tell us though if if in the projections if we you know keep spending without the transfers in in the
026subsequent years we will be decreasing um our net balance um kind of averaging out more in the in the next two 25 26 26 27 but we will really need to take a look and and watch for the 2425 so th I mean those numbers are I mean even though even though they're in deficit they're not like no it's it's a fun it's fun balance and so what I kind of think of it as you have your reserve over here is like your savings account and then you have your your checking account that we're paying for all of this but you're having more money go out of it than coming in so there's there's still going to be a balance but this is what you're spending down out of that balance it's so in the
027future what's the what's the change that's happened that's that's making it better I have reduced I've reduced expenditures by quite a bit and um that's five million in our other in our other outgo but some of that is like um like one of the things we talked about is there was just a placeholder for a million and change for capital projects well we've just done a good portion of that with measure B and then we're using measure B for our um like our Roofing those big high dollar projects we're doing so we don't have a big construction project sitting on the horizon that we're financing out of our own pocket well and we're also thinking of new income streams exactly which will offset that how much but I mean 2324 that was the LA this
028was our last year of spending Co dollars as well right so that's the difference too between the 40,000 expenditure and next year's 35 yeah um we still have some of those pots of money but again it's it's running out I mean a million dollars has gone away you know um but again too in that 23 24 you're we're we still have quite a bit encumbered you know in our capital projects and will you be able to formally release that okay you close out the year so what you will see is you will see a 45 day budget Revis in August which should have our close out in it and then we should have a a much better handle on what the state is actually doing um it's it's it's nebulous not even how much a
029gap we're trying to close the 45 day rebis is really if there's any huge shifts into your 2425 and so what I'll do is when these actual numbers closing time right for the 23 24 is when I I will share with you that information comparatively to many districts in the state we're in a pretty good spot um the key consider ations for PD um the retirement incentives um we still have three more years of those pars agreements that we're paying um and the one-time short-term funds so our learning recovery emergency block grant we have about a year left of that and the California Community Schools partnership pccoe is for CRC and pra High School only so we're starting that implementation phase over at PTO Junior Senior High School um and again I know that I've
030said this before um but my concerns on the district side with our cash flow the C the tax dispersements payments from plums county is still an issue and because of measure B we've had the luxury of inter fund borrowing but because we're spending that fund down um that's a concern as well so so is there any like movement with the county on rectifying some of the issues we received our the ones that I work for we received our dispersement of funds like a week ago did you get yours like two two weeks ago yeah so that's four months earlier than last year but still a month later than years ago so it swung back but not as good as it used to be but better and I think also I I'm not I don't understand
031fully what their processes are over there and why there is a delay um I I just don't understand that enough right yeah when they received 90% of the income on April 10th yeah right yeah right right so why does it take so long why did it take two months to do the you know the distribution and you know years ago we used to get um a portion of it very quickly and then and then they would do kind of even up with you because they they knew what they were going to be able to release um and that was really helpful I I mean I I try to give everyone Grace and understanding I know what it's like in a whole area the CH challenging to have staff in your accounting department to be able
032to keep up with the needs so um but it it definitely is a goal to work on that relationship and hopefully um get you know timely tax pays and I believe we have a good relationship with that office and that the other part that's rough on that is you know we're talking about our fire departments we're talking about our Cemetery districts our hospitals we're talking there's they don't have a lot of room no no they have tiny little budgets and so it's it's really devastating to everybody really is to all of our our needed Services yes mie in a in a pinch in a cash flow issue like that do we have the ability to borrow from the county I would ask the county CEO and she would probably say yes that's so we do
033have there's a reason why we carry an 80% plus reserve on the county side and we're very frugal with that um the key consideration for the future years is our enrollment and our Ada um and how important that it is we need these kids here not only I mean yes for their education but it it is also tied to our funding when we're going in between you know lcff and basic a it just you can see from the projections that it really benefits for all of our kiddos to be um in the classroom we did a number today we talked in in cabinet that since Co we've lost almost 300 students to home school our Co year we lost 100 kids in since then we've lost uh 40 to 50 per year and that number
034is roughly $122,000 per student big number yeah I noticed in the El was like 1400 1400 students and I mean 14 we had 19 yeah the 1920 school year we had 19 almost 1900 kids and that makes it hard for projections as well and the out years too just um and then another one you know and I feel like I I explained it a little bit on those out years why LESA you did see the Improvement in the two years out was to evaluate the capital on the other outgo because we know things need to be done but we have to make the decision of when we're going to do it and how much we're going to do so um there there were the capital outlay and I made some budget reductions in um services
035and materials and supplies just have to keep watching it and as conservative as my Revenue projections may be I um I can't get too crazy up there with projections so y so yeah questions I have on yeah if we had continued to maintain what we had been doing for many years now at Greenville High School would the budget how much how much what kind of situation would our budget be in well saving approximately what million I think so what do we we lose in Secure rural school funding about 500,000 a little over 500,000 but then you have to consider what we're not paying for so I don't want to say that it's a wash um the last projection I presented to the community out there uh building so site maintenance plus Staffing was about 750,000
036is what that was going to cost us so and we lose the secure world funding for the site um but I I think it's it's a wash maybe maybe we save a little bit more years I'm thinking like three four but if you go back three four five years ago you had when you had seven teachers out there because you had a full staff but a low number of students they fund your your um necessary small schools funding based on the smaller number either Ada or teachers whichever benefits the state more and so if you you have 20 kids well you're only getting $700,000 but you're you know 1.2 million in expenses so it it's it's been a loss for a long time yeah um and then we've got you we still have to maintain
037the site but we have that well covered with our our Le any other questions thank you guys first for the County Office of Education and now is the time and place for the public open the are no comment or anything else close the heing and I know there's a second part to this but this the approval for the county budget again will be Friday yes sir meeting then and then the uh this now there's a second public hearing this is the opportunity the public to voice its uh input or opinion about the 2024 2025 proposed budget for p Unified School District I'll go ahead and the hearing no comment we'll go ahead and close the hearing and we'll move forward on that on Friday thank you thank you and now we have the uh p

042state level uh we had two days we we're submitting two waivers uh for our our days that we took this year I think it needs to be noted um parents ask for an early decision the best that we can our bargaining units have asked me for that and in the last 25 years there's been two blizzard warnings issued in the Sierra Nevada one was last year and one was this year and when they do a blizzard warning they tell you stay off the roads if we open school we are liable for any injuries or accidents that happened with those kids traveling soon it's I know we had two snow days this year where they were bad at kind of the other ends of the county but it was okay here the blizzard warning covered the

050we were able to hire two new slps for the distri so Quincy will be fully covered with inperson therapy as well as Greenville and Chester and we were not able to find somebody for CA area so we still going to need to use tiny ey for CA we do have that position fly and my hope is that by next year we'll be fully off of tiny ey so had a significant decrease for next year so the people that we hired to fill the Quincy spots don't have hours to be able to allow them to the case loads are so high that you they're barely going to be able to cover like one person covering Quincy is going to be a stretch um so yeah we have 60 plus kids in Quincy alone that have speech
051um so and for's numbers are even higher so I really hope we can find somebody as a as a parent with a kid with special needs especially autism directly um mannerisms are so important and you just don't get that on a screen you know it's like watching a digital robot um but they really need body language you know for my son that was key when we when we got him in therapy and and they actually taught him with exaggerated body language it's like things started really clicking yeah so yeah and I I completely agree with everything you said and that's why it's been recruiting these people has been like one of my top priorities because there's anything I can do to help you yeah yeah well you know of anybody we do have some a
052lead for somebody in about two years that wants to work in for schol that's how far in advance you have to be need to find her a house now she's she summer school already she's doing expanded learning like she's ready for it I'll hold rental she live with her parents for a while she has to serious I got extra recruiting together the hospital could utilize so we actually did um a little collaboration kind of with the hospital we hired um one of the people we've hired to do Quincy um actually one of your employees reached out and wanted to see if she could do some stuff obviously not during our contract time but just hey she's coming to the area and she's going to be doing that as well so it did provide kind of
053a she had already signed on with us but it was just another source of income for somebody moving to the area which I think is a great yeah absolutely yeah yes I'm I'm really hopeful that within the next couple years we will be fully off the tiny eye so I were able to recruit OT this year as well so we didn't have to resort to going online with that which is great what is stop it so stop it is if you go to our our website or any of the school websites there's a button you can push and it's a way that anybody can report uh you know suspected violence abuse it's just it's an anonymous app that um you can put it in and when they hit submit it comes to us we get
054email we get phone call and if the it goes to principal first principal vice principal if they don't answer comes to me goes to Missy and and they call until they get a hold of someone and they report it and the kids know how to get there or the parents even elementary kids use it yeah very it's uh talk to the High School principles about the newsletters as well yeah see something say something and it's just another op right what is this that the income from first five does that go into staff or does that go into it does it's um to help offset our early intervention teacher yeah we move to approve the service contracts oh second first second and then we have donation first one is that the one that's here in the
055hallway yes yes we've got it measured we know someone who uh can make some frames to match what we have out there and that is a portrait of mountain the valley oh move to approve all these as noted this is great second and of course I'm just going to say something because it happens to be my dad um that's the other donation so we had lots of community members donate in memory of my dad to put in some enhancements in the elementary school and um and I believe they've all decided to do something the um the basketball hoop is a hand crank and it takes a lot of physical effort to actually get it up so I believe they're putting in an electric one so my dad actually ran the girls basketball program and the
056hoop shoot which is held at that elementary school so I didn't know these other donations um from the other folks so just thank you to Arley and Janet for for Their donation as well already have all those in favor passes and we're headed in the Clos section all right and anybody gets away Jolene there some the certification page I think you you sign when you approved sign on table okay so not today no so put it in I yeah I think it's when the board thought it yes the one that has every signature that's though yes wait I'll give you okay so we need to um clst SE
