001We can start. >> We'll stand for the pledge of allegiance. Ready? Begin. I pledge algiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands. One nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. >> All right. Do I have a motion to approve the agenda? >> I move to pro to approve the agenda. >> Second. >> All right. Any discussion? >> Kirsty. Hi >> JD. >> Hi >> Ready. >> I >> Hillary >> I for me as well. All right, we'll move into celebrations. >> Well, uh, Chairman Thornton and members of the board, I just wanted to say thank you for all the work you did. It was a a long process of of working through to find a superintendent. And I thought you did a
002great job of all the putting all the details together and um just all the things that went into it. And it was I mean I'm I'm happy for for this success here and these guys are happy as well. And to have a unanimous vote was was also a very very I I guess I was very touched by that as well. But tonight I just wanted to say um thank you and to welcome Marcus. Marcus is here tonight and that um we're very happy that he's going to be uh our next superintendent here. And so I just he said I didn't want to plan a big speech but I wouldn't you just say a couple words. >> Absolutely. >> Yeah. >> Chair trustees and superintendent back at all. I just want to say how honored and
003um thankful and how I am to lead such an incredible team. I've had the opportunity to meet many people and look forward to meeting many more. Um there's incredible work happening and I can't wait to be a part of that work. incredibly excited and to look forward to be a part of the future of Kuni School District in this community. So, tremendous appreciation. Thank you so much for your trust and for your honor in doing that and um looking forward to the great things happening. >> Great. Thanks. Thank you guys very much. I feel good. I still will be here for a couple. >> You're not leaving yet. Road trips. >> Boat trips for a while. Um, the second thing for celebration, um, I asked, uh, Michelle Graves and, uh, if she would come and
004talk. We have this great community event that's been going on, and we don't get to hear about it very often. It's advertised, but I asked Miss if she would bring her team and come and talk to us a little bit about the daddy daughter dance and what a thing it is for the community here and how many kids and parent or dads come and whatever. So, I'm gonna turn it over to you. >> All right. Come on. >> All right. I'm Michelle Michelle Graves. Mrs. Graves. This is our HOSA future health professional student organization. Uh I've been running this organization here um in Kuna for 16 years since since I came over to Kuna. We got it started. Um so, introduce yourselves. I'm Addie and I'm a senior this year. >> I'm a junior. I'm
005Jordan Curran. >> My name is Sarah and I'm also a senior. >> I'm Jordan Graves. I'm a sophomore. >> I'm Adeline Blanchard and I'm a sophomore. >> And uh we have a couple officers that joined us tonight as well. We have 55 running members currently. Um and our Daddy Daughter Dance is our biggest fundraiser for the year. And we start planning in September. This was our 13th annual fundraiser. We started with um a plan of two cakes and about 200 people our first year. It ended up with two cakes and about 800 people. Um and then we have grown from there. This year we had our biggest group of 1500 um attendees at the dance. It's one of the biggest events that the high school actually holds each year. Uh we had a lot of
006families that joined us and a lot of positive um community service that not only is it a fundraiser for us, but it's a community service that these kids get to put on for for Kuna. Um we had um many members from Melba, Boyisey, Meridian. So we don't hold it to just Kuna, but we open it up to people that want to join us. So, it's a great family event and we're very proud of it. Um, so go ahead. They have a few things they'd like to also add. >> Um, this is my second year that I've done the Daddy Daughter Dance and I always love putting it on because it's always so much fun to see, um, as an organization as a whole, how we put it together. And it also shows me how hard
007work really pays off, especially after putting it all together and then seeing all the little girls being able to dance with their family members. It was just so much fun. So, >> this is my second year as well. But helped me grow my leadership so much, especially working with like a big team and so many different students that I wouldn't have been able to met and grow a relationship with it if it wasn't for HOSA. >> Yeah. And then one of the important things about HOSA and our daddy daughter dance is we are as the members able to attend state competitions. We're actually headed there tomorrow and we have 38 members competing in medical events. So that's another really beneficial part. So, >> thanks for having us. >> Thank you for coming. >> How many00500
008this year was our biggest >> a lot of cakes. A lot. >> Yes. I We went from two cakes to 28 cakes. >> I was I was there with my three daughters and it was standing room only. It was packed. And you guys did a great job. Like it was I thought, "Holy smokes, this is going to be chaos." But it was I mean it was organized and the kids were standing in line for pictures and it was cool. Thank you. >> I saw it all over social media about kids and their parents actually looking forward to it every single year. So I think it's become a really great tradition that kids look forward to doing. >> You can never stop. Oh, we plan it starting in September. They it has become a themed event.
009So every year they pick a theme, they vote on it and they start planning and making props and so for all the pictures like every area they have is they create a photo op and yeah it's very exciting. Yeah. >> Thank you. >> Y don't have to stay either. Help me. >> We know how exciting these meetings are. >> Thank you. >> Is there a mint or something? >> Nasty cough. >> And your nicotine gum. >> All right. Next up, we have patron comment. Is there Okay, thank you. All right, we'll move on to unfinished business. First up, Fourth Street Gym update. This is a superintendent Graves ready. Uh, Vice Chair Grant and Trusty Low. Turn it over. >> You get half the room on this agenda item, I guess. Um, do you want to
010start and then we can >> I'd be happy to maybe if we can go to the next slide. I think that's the one that I'm supposed to talk about. Yeah. Um, okay. So, I guess where we are, what just is what I'd like to talk about is just um we have an agreement kind of verbally with the city that um we both agree on a few things and maybe some things that we need to work on. Um we agree on the space use and the portions of the building that'll be used by Kunis School District and those that'll be used by the city. And I think in the future slides we have a map of that. Again, um we in the I think that both parties would agree to the rent of $1,500 per month
011for those portions while they own it and we would utilize those portions. Um that throughout this process that we would not use a real estate agent and that we'd each pay for our own legal fees. Um and that the purchase price would be 1.8 8 million um as they offered and that Kuna School District will receive the appraised value of the property which is 1.7 something um and that the difference between that and $1.8 million would be applied to closing costs. I know this is a review from our previous meeting. So um and then some of the discussion that I think we need to talk about is up I I think um one of you is going to talk about some um but we this the city offered a two-year allowance for the office spaces
012but hoped that one year we'd be able to be to vacate after one year for the warehouse storage area. Um, and and so in discussions, I think we kind of talked about maybe asking for a five-year timeline to be totally moved out of all of the spaces if we are to move forward um with the sale of the gym, which I think is in question. Um, but that if we could, we'd be out earlier. Did I miss anything there? But >> I don't think so. That's just kind of an update as far as what we've talked about in the meetings and then emailed this information back to them for clarification and just to see what they think and I guess have we heard back from them on that? >> I haven't heard from >> No.
013And I in the email with the mayor it sounded like that he was going to take it to the city council meeting and then we had spring break so we thought we'd probably get back together after spring break. Yeah. >> Did we Did we talk to him about that other price that we talked about for selling it >> like that >> just the price >> the swinging for the fence type thing? Did it just be done? >> We we didn't. >> Okay. >> Uh it's it wasn't something that I'm comfortable talking about. It's not something I personally would feel comfortable bringing to the city. So if somebody else wants to do that, that's fine. >> Okay. Um so we we We're kind of tasked with working on some options for you if you did decide
014to sell um what that would look like. And so we're bringing three different options to consider. Um just as a quick note, I don't think we mentioned it yet, but on the agenda item on the agenda it says there's an action item on this. Not don't necessarily need to take action. Just wanted to make sure that was an option for you as a board if that was something you decided to do tonight. Um, so I will work through I will talk to you about option A and B. Uh, Brian's going to work through some of the things on option C. Um, so we'll go I'll I'll do those two first. So if you go to the next slide. So option A, you'll remember a couple of months ago we brought a conceptual drawing from LKV
015that was essentially this building with the warehouse space and it was turned the other way. Um we got an estimated price tag on that of I think it was three and a half something like that. Um which was steep, right? Uh so we were kind of tasked with the uh working on work with LKV to come back with an option that would effectively be costneutral if we sold the gym. So we walked uh the facility at Kuman Middle School with uh LKV, our architects, and and talked to them about renovating this current classroom space. So, I think some of you guys have been in this recently with um some capital plan work, but the old kind of I think egg shop from back in the day um currently serves as a bit of an orchestra
016space. Um so, we've talked about renovating that for the warehouse and then building um just this piece new here for the offices and um I think there's like a a conference room, training center type thing built into that as well. Um, so that's kind of just the picture of of what that option looks like. On the next slide, you'll see an explanation from uh from Ron LKV. Uh, effectively, I can summarize this summarize this for you and say that we went to him and said, "Get us in the 1.4 1.5 range." Um, >> you work with an architect, you got to lower than >> Yeah. And I mean, we who doesn't like nice things, right? Um, and you'll notice the the last part here too to there's still some work that would need to be
017done um on the the renovation of the current classroom space there at Kuna Middle School. Um, to really know what that cost would be, he estimated between 60 and 90,000. Does that make sense? Any questions about that one? >> Um, in that drawing it has it has some meeting space, bathrooms. Um >> yeah, there's like a smaller conference area here and then that training center. Um and really this is just a conceptual drawing. Uh we talked about maybe if this space was big enough for making it a board meeting. We've heard some feedback from some community members that this space is hard to hear in and maybe not the most convenient. So potentially using that for a new boardroom, um computer lab, lots of different possibilities there. Yeah, that's on that. We felt like the
018bathrooms was a was a must. Not only because obviously our employees need to use the restroom, but that way they wouldn't be using the restroom with with >> Students. Absolutely. >> And I think that we did um we talked about we would need to maybe add a set of doors here uh in the hallway so that students weren't, you know, getting access to the warehouse space and um some of those other things. So would be a little upgrade there in the hallway as well. So we can go to the next one. Um option B. So this is uh was an as an idea that's been floated out there is is um this is again at Kuna Middle School. This is the part of the property really in question. There's a um the old farmhouse that
019uh was on the original property when we purchased it. Um just a fun little fact for you that it was donated to us in 1972. Uh, and the lady that that donated, well, we bought it, I guess. Um, we bought, I think, 40 acres for $55,000. In fact, um, but it's been there for a while. Uh, that is not a new facility by any means. It's an old farmhouse. Um, it was the district office for a while. It the, um, Kuna Police Department, Ada County Sheriff, um, rented that facility from us for a while. Currently ABM uh part of our contract with ABM requires that we provide some office space to them and some storage. So uh this would include this is a idea um good or bad I guess to renovate this for technology
020space for technology offices uh and and then also renovate the warehouse for the tech the warehouse part of the technology department needs. So >> is a is ABM paying rent for that house? >> We have to provide it's part of our contract. We have to provide them offices and storage. >> I understand we need to provide it, but I didn't know if they're paying for it. >> So it's discounted from our from what we pay. >> So we could put them somewhere else, which we don't have anywhere else. This this house is perfect for that just because it's a 197 Well, we don't know when the house was built. We got it in 1972. It probably been there since, I don't know, 1950. Who knows? I have no idea. Um, it's not new. So, these
021are some of the things that we would need to consider. Um, if this is an option that you choose for us to pursue, um, there's going to be some work to do, uh, to just determine price tag on some of these items. These are some of the things we know for sure we're going to need to look at or consider. I would say I I I don't know for sure that we would require some fire suppression, but I would we would need to look into that. I don't know if the HVAC system um would need any kind of updating when we start filling it with computers, technology, equipment, bodies um unknown there, but the warehouse redo, we do know that. And then these other items on the list um would be things that we need
022to work with our contractors with uh engineers to to ask them um what this is going to cost, what it's going to take. When you start opening walls up in um old buildings, sometimes there's things that you don't know that you find or things change, permitting changes, all that kind of Trusty Wheeler probably knows better than I do. >> That is my world. >> Part of it. I was like, >> "What's what's the square footage of that house again?" >> I don't know off the top of my head. I would have to do some Do you know? >> No, but it can't be more than 2,000. >> Oh, I feel like it's smaller than that, but I don't know. >> Yeah, >> there's two levels, right? There's a basement. >> There's a basement >> and
023they're using it for storage of cleaning products and like >> it's where all the supplies come in. It's for so far 11 11 school sites as well as this site. Um, so they use it as a warehouse and a storage area and then they have three offices >> and the employees come there to check in, you know, work and everything. >> They use it like they'll do their like drilling leads, trainings, they'll do all their stuff in there. All things that we did with them in here before we contracted out remember Ben and their offices were we crammed them into that that the that double the portables >> portable. Do do we know how much space we're contracted to provide for ABM like a square is it a square footage wise or was there >>
024what's in the contract with them for that? >> Um I I can get that for you as well. um the our maintenance without when maintenance and custodial were together it was it made sense for us to share a space when we weren't and then what's ours what's theirs we they did not want to share a space so that's why we found a space that we couldn't do with them everyone separate and that house is really hard for us to use um one of our biggest concerns is the second we walk somebody in there and look at code there is no escape from the downstairs So, how much renovation will we have to do to add an exit to the base >> and ADA compliance is >> next? >> Well, why would we have new requirements?
025I mean, we're it's not changing ownership or anything. >> I think that's the question. It's like when we start doing infrastructure upgrades to the facility, does that does that change? There's, you know, that that happens. Um, you know, as it sits now, people are okay. But then when you start digging stuff up, opening walls, restructuring, redoing, I don't know. >> Sure. >> There's some questions we need to ask there and find out. I mean, >> it does seem to work quite well for their their purposes when I walked through it. Um, and I did have a hard time imagining technology in there personally, but like as a side note, I think be it's something that maybe a couple of us at least would like to revisit that part of their contract um when it's time
026to renew. As a side note, >> yeah, this summer will be the end of year two of our we did a five-year agreement. >> Yeah. to to uh if you were to ever ask us which one that we would rather put money in and renovate, it would be into the forest street gym before it would be into this farmhouse. Um but that's that's our the third was what happens if we didn't sell? What would we need to do uh right away and then long term with four street gym? Um Jason proudly put this picture of the roof on there. You can see that we did do the roof over the basketball side. If you if you're not sure, that's the white >> side of >> this is the part that leaks. If you want to
027know, >> needs some help. >> I thought that was >> we just divided it into probably what if we wouldn't have never spoke about selling for Jim, these would be the four projects that we probably you would have heard from us in the in the next year or two. uh the roof using the annex project that we just did and the reed object that I'll uh project that I'll be bringing to you guys next week, we would estimate the roof somewhere in that 150 to 200. um the bathrooms in the actual basketball part. Um if we continue to use the basketball, rent the basketball, ask people to utilize it, we've got to do a pretty big That's that's exactly what we spent in the next bathroom renovation. Security doors, that's all your wiring and your
028swipes um into the doors. There's a ramp up, but there's no handicap access. So, we at some point probably need to add a handicap access. And then lastly, just the actual windows of the fourth if you the gym. So we got to do a window upgrade. And if you were to leave out the doors and step onto Fourth Street, the curbing is been washed away. So we would need to do some some curbing concrete and probably an eve um replacement. The bottom are not in any type of a luxury. Today the parking lot was fabulous. Um no rain, no snow. that parking lot if we were to redo it. Just kind of using what we spent at Indian Creek and trying to guess how much bigger it is. We put that 400 450. It doesn't
029have to be done, but at some point should it be done? Uh that basketball floor, if you continue to rent it, at some point should we refinish it like we did um high school like we do at the middle schools. The hoops do not go up and down at all. So when you rent it, you rent it with the hoops down. If you you ever been to the down home country Christmas, those baskets are right there. Um, and lastly, the downstairs. Um, it's probably a mildew mold smell. We probably need use in some of the carpets at some point. If you were to keep it, those projects would be and then we anybody that's we're not saving in rent. The the city gave us their rent price was our utility bill. So we still would
030be paying the 1,500 because it just wouldn't be rent, it would be utilities. >> So are the top is that top section considered stuff that we have to do? >> If we keep it, we have to do it immediately and then the bottom section are capital projects that we can put off for a minute if we need to. Is that how is that what I'm just trying to is that why that line was put there to distinguish the difference between two sections? >> Ones that we would have had in that first five years of our 10ear plan. sure >> that we're starting the year. Talk about next summer 27 summer is our third year of our 10 year plan. >> So we would have probably come with the roof in the bathroom first. >> I
031walked through the whole thing and it's I hadn't been in lots of it. I mean I'm sure more more of you have been in there. >> Have any of you walked through anything but the gym part recently at all? >> I've been in part of the there's a conference room I went into. >> I mean it's in rough shape. Yeah, sure. I mean, and like there's daylight under the doors. There's It does smell like mildew. I mean, I'm not advocating for one option over another, but it but it certainly isn't necess I I see it as a bit of a liability with this amount of money that we need to put into it and more over time. This is >> by no means all of the things that could be put into it. Yeah. >>
032And I And I guess I'm thinking like who else is going to buy this from us down the road that will have the money? I don't know. I mean, the other bids we got were quite low from churches. And so I I don't know. I'm not necessar I don't have a perfect solution, but >> there there is another option as well too. Like I mean club, we could do a partnership of some kind with a club for basketball where they could help us with that top line to do all that and then we could still have own it and use it for what we need to. I mean, I feel like a lot of those basketball clubs are already using it, but I think we could probably reach out to one of them or a
033couple of them and they could probably cover a lot of that on the top line at least. And I'm sure more would be we could negotiate some more. But >> what what clubs use it? >> I think the Kuna Force would do it. I don't know what that contract would look like, but I I bet that would be an option. I >> mean, not those items add up to what I about his offer to purchase the building was. >> I think his his offer was I thought 600,000. I think it wasn't 650 >> or 500,000 something like that between five and six. He can't I think he came back with a second one >> that was over 600. But >> I mean if you look at that top line that's >> right >> that's 300
034grand. >> Yeah. >> So half of what he's asking and then we have like a contract of some kind because he's only going to use it in that evenings. You know it could be a I'm just brainstorming. >> Yeah that's good. >> Oh yeah. >> We need some brainstorming. >> That's great. >> And I think I think it's plausible. I think it would be a fair option. >> But I guess my question is like if we can have if we can sell this and have a new building that is utilized for the school district rather than just providing an old building for the community use because our school our school doesn't really use it very much. And so as far as the school district's concerned, we're running a community center and it would maybe make
035more sense to have the city run a community center um at their own expense with all of these improvements. And I think they're willing to do that. That's their intended use. And so the building doesn't change use, but it removes the same taxpayers are probably going to pay for it one way or another, but but at least the school district's not going to ask for it. >> It's a fair point. Yeah. >> Well, it's just if we sell it, then we're taking that money and putting it right back into the district. So, I guess that's the question is, is that what we want to do? >> Well, we only put action on there in case you want to. There's no >> city isn't 100% yet, right? I think he I don't know if it's when
036city council was they were going to, but it'll be interesting to hear. I mean, the mayor the mayor felt pretty confident that he had the votes is what he said. But, um, I mean, it's never a for sure thing until they had the votes. >> Sure. >> So, >> but he he seemed he and his team seemed very positive about the whole thing and very flexible, wanting to do anything they could to make it work for the both the community and the school district. So, that was their feeling to me. >> Steer center very flexible. >> Yeah. He was like whatever just he just wants to be a good a good partner I think in the whole thing and >> do what's and he's very interested in keeping that particular piece of property within the
037city just for proximity. >> Yeah. I mean it owned by the city. I mean >> I think I I don't think in my opinion I don't think we're ready for an action item here. Um and because like I think the negotiate I think in my opinion the main negotiation factor is the timetable for us to be out of there with the city >> for sure. >> So and I think we need we need to have longer than a couple years. >> Yeah. I think I mean do we think five years is a is a good thing? >> Yeah. I would I think yeah pushing for 5 years would be beneficial for us. >> But if we make an arrangement to be out in five years, I think it's maybe only responsible for us to determine
038what where we're going to be out to. You know what I mean? So >> I agree. >> Like if they agree to the five years, then what? Then what do we want to do? >> Yeah. I Yeah, we I mean these are all good options. >> They are good options. >> I mean I would rather build something new than remodel the home. What was that, Kirsty? >> I would rather build something new than remodel the home if we're going to do that. >> I didn't real When we chatted last time, I didn't realize how bad a shape it was in. I mean, those are significant repairs. And even after you make those repairs on a building that old, it's your your maintenance cost is higher than a new one. So, I can I can appreciate
039the even if it does even if we're just exchanging dollars, I can appreciate that our lifetime cost of a new building might actually be better than trying to maintain what we've got. >> Yeah, we would love to take you on a field trip to the house if you >> Oh, to the house. >> Yeah, I mean, I went to the house and the fourth street gym and I mean, it was certainly educational. No, I I agree with Jason. I think you open you open the walls on those old buildings and all of a sudden now you're redoing electrical and plumbing that you didn't plan on. >> Is the Kuna Middle School parking lot the best option to put a building? >> It's a huge empty space right now. I mean it's >> well and it's
040then it's next to the storage that we have planned for >> and we've talked about too that putting that those offices there wouldn't impact future like we've talked about adding other things onto the end of that building that wouldn't get in the way. Um we've talked to Ron about that. So >> it is a loss of one a space they use one period a day but it is only one period a day. So, and and it's it's just because it's an empty space. It's not you walk is it's it's a garage with some carpet on the floor that they're >> And that carpet is interesting, too. >> It's just rugs. It's a >> interesting complaint, though. She's just >> Which is so sweet. Yeah. But I'm like, maybe if anybody has extra rugs they aren't
041using, they could use them >> new ones. Okay. >> Uh so I guess should we should we go to the city with the five years and then if that is a if that's something that they're working if that they will work with then we can decide >> where we're going to go. talked about, you know, five years with the hope of us being out >> before that, but >> yeah, >> but you know, not knowing how fast we can get something drawn and built and um you know, all those kinds of things. We're still very conceptual. >> Sure. >> So, I mean, I would guess we're at least two years between drawing and building. >> Yeah. Oh yeah, >> at this from today, you know, so I think >> anyhow, >> that would be my
042suggestion is to do that and see >> and I do think what they want to use the offices for maybe some parks and wack offices. Isn't that what they said? >> Yes, exactly. >> And the the request from them to be out of I think maybe we already talked about it be out in one year was just that one big warehouse piece. The rest of it wasn't. Do we have the forest street? I don't think we have a schematic of it. >> But so is that what's going to go in the Kuna Middle School? Like it's the stuff from there. So if we decide to move forward with the option to build a building, we we could probably be out sooner from that warehouse spot than the rest. >> That's a great point. >> Okay.
043Well, >> I think we just need to find out if they're okay with a little longer. >> I think I think that's our next step. >> Yep. I think so, too. >> Thank you. >> Thanks. All right. Next, we have consider anou for the KHS parking lot edition. Uh, Mr. Tim Jensen. >> Mr. Chairman, board of members, I brought this to you a couple months ago to get your permission to move forward with this process. And over this time, it's it's gone back and forth between our attorney, the developer's attorney, and and we submitted the initial draft to theou and then their attorney got it and said, "Hey, here's some changes." And when I took it back to our attorney and like I explained to you guys, um, our attorney was exceptionally pleased with what
044their attorney had included in because a lot of what they put in were more safeguards for the district as far as the responsibility of the contractors to be insured and and those different pieces. And so our attorney was very complimentary of the draft that had come back. It wasn't, she didn't feel as if it came back with them trying to cut a bunch of stuff out that would have taken something away from the district or or anything like that. It actually protected us more. And so, but it went back and forth a couple times and we finally agreed on this draft and I sent it to you guys the other day to make sure that you had it. You got to see it, but also it's in your board packet. And so where we're at
045with it because we're at that, you know, the final agreement on it is I'm just needing your permission to accept the this final draft of it and it would be that final draft would um be signed by um Chairman Thornton and and we would move forward. Then I would start working with the city on the plan review and stuff. And when I've talked to the city about it, they um said that they would just expedite that process to make us to help us get through it and and have it ready to go because the plan is the developer wants to have this done um if his schedule stays on for his subdivision. He wants to do this at the same time. And the plan is to have it done by the end of the summer.
046So, the good thing about that is it'd be ready, you know, if he stays on target with that, it'd be ready for us when we brought kids back in the fall. So, that's it's I was going to say there's, you know, just some good win-wins and and um so and last time I talked to him, you know, everything is on schedule for that development. So, you know, right now, you know, everything seems to be going and he just, you know, and it makes sense. The developer wants to be able to just have those subcontractors when they're doing that work in his subdivision, when they're doing the streets, you know, they bring that equipment over and do the excavation part of it. They're doing the paving, the, you know, any of the ground work, utility work,
047all that stuff just comes over when they do it in the subdivision. They just add the parking lot piece of that to that contractor's time to do it then. And so it made sense, you know, what he was proposing with us. and and uh so anyway, I just I'll stand for questions and hopefully can answer. >> I have a question. Um I didn't see anywhere in that contract that like a contingency plan for if it's not on schedule for that for our summer. Um because I mean, can we make that happen when school's in session? >> We would have to. Yeah. And so we did talk about that because I told him, you know, when school gets in session, there would have to be some sort of a plan to not block entrances and exits
048and stuff like that. And he assured me that if we if we went into that, that they would work with us to make sure that it was it wouldn't impede on our daily flow of traffic and stuff for the school. and and so and part of it you know where it's going in is in that grass area and um so there you know there wouldn't be student cars and stuff you know in the way of that work and so you know it might be one of those they'd have to let you know let kids get to school then come out start doing their work but we talked about that and said yeah we have to he said he they would work with us on you know if it got into that where we were in
049school he would work with us on being able the to do that, you know, with the car because we can't block that parking lot off for them to do their work. So, >> and it doesn't sound like there's going to be any really flexibility on when the subcontractors are out and they're scheduled, that's when it's going to happen, whether it's the convenient time for us or not. So, >> and I know Yeah. I mean there it's one of those he really want the the developer is the one that's really driving that timeline of he who really wants to to do it and plan it when his subs are out there and instead of having to say well shoot it doesn't work this summer let's you know let's bring them back then you know it for
050him and I know it's a cost thing it's more cost effective for his subs to do it while they're out on a site and say hey while you're out here plan two extra days to come do your excavation piece over at Yeah. over at the high school. And so, >> well, I'm excited for more parking. >> Yeah. >> Motion that we accept anou for the Kuna High School parking lot admission. >> Second. >> All right. I have a motion to consider the to approve theou for KHS parking lot addition and a second. Is there any further discussion? >> All right. Hillary >> I >> JD >> I >> Kirsty >> I >> for me you as well. >> Thank you guys. >> Thank you. >> I'll get you a copy of that. >> Get your
051signature. Thank you guys. >> Thanks. All right. We will move on to new business. Um, first up, consider the offer letter to the superintendent. Um, so Freddy, myself, and the CFO, we've met with Marcus Myers and discussed um the contract, and our recommendation is for the board to accept a three-year contract salary of $180,000, standard district benefits, and 240 contract days. contract would begin July 1, 2026. >> Are those the same number of days that are currently in our contract? >> Currently, we do 245. >> We have We have I think eight calendars. >> Yeah, >> eight calendars. >> Looking to clear that up. >> No. >> Oh, that's our goal before I leave. >> What do you mean eight calendars? >> We have a 184, 185, a 200, a 205. So we have >>
052different people different people all kinds of different counters. >> Well, sounds good to me. I can make a motion that we um accept that offer letter to our new superintendent. Is that okay to say? >> He you can read it. >> Yeah. Do you want to read it >> if you want? You have to stay >> this possible. I move that we offer Marcus Meyers the superintendent position with the following contract terms. Superintendent contract for three years with a salary of 180,000 standard district benefits and 240 contract days beginning July 1st, 2026. >> A second. Okay. Uh any further discussion? >> Kirsty >> I. JD >> I >> Freddy >> I >> Hillary >> I for me as well. >> Okay. >> I mean I don't know why I'm thanking you. >> Sorry. >> We're
053all thankful. Everyone's thankful. >> We're very thankful. >> We're excited. We're excited. >> We're excited to have Marcus here. >> I assume you all talked about that and that's why this word came from anyway. >> We did. We're sad. We're sad to lose Kim, but we're excited. We're excited for Marcus. >> We're excited for you to be able to travel. >> Go on my Disney trip. >> I do I do check in. >> Make sure she's here. So, >> good. Make sure she showed up. >> Make sure she's she shows up. >> Yeah. You're not retired yet, Kim. >> Yeah. >> It takes a D. >> Try to remember. >> Trying to remember. I'm fine. >> All right. We'll move on to policies. Ryan, >> I want you to keep all that same excitement. You
054know, we love it. >> Actually, me. >> This is why I come to the meetings and it's Principal Reno's fault that I'm up here because next month we bring quarter one um the quarter one updates to you. They're not quite ready yet, but we only have one first read and this is a policy we've seen a couple different times. Um so in the high school graduation requirements, remember that the state of Idaho doesn't have PE requirements. Kuna School District does. So, we just have a slight adjustment that we would like you guys to consider for and remember right now the PE credit that we require is only for our traditional high school. It's not for our alternative high school. Um, they've changed physical education so much that you can actually not take PE and get
055credit for any sanctioned high school sports. Now, club sports, you can get credit all kinds of different ways. So, one of the recommendations since this is a district um requirement is Kuna High School would like to offer a full school year of JOTC. Remember in ROC they have to do drill every single week. Um even a former PE teacher would acknowledge that their drill is comparable just in case >> we have them go through all the standards. Our standards are met through that ROC. So, they'd have to do a full year, but they would get one of their PE credits. And then also, if they were in marching band, um marching band is IHSA. They do have to do the requirements. Um they go to competitions, they physically meet what the standards say. So, that
056would be the one change. >> Definitely looks physical out there. Well, and they're out there in July in the parking lot >> in their >> warm. Yeah, that's awesome. That's great. >> That's great. >> Not to speak for for Torino or um this is love lady having students take classes they want to take instead of that they have to take. We see so much more success and this way you're not telling those kids, hey, choose choose to take this piece of credit. Maybe it's team sports, maybe it's a fitness course they don't really want to, but they would do marching band four times a a year. So um this is that's the first read. They stand for any questions >> or >> I make a motion to amend the um agenda or I mean not
057the agenda the policy number 610 high school graduation requirements. >> I second >> first read is that do I need to say that? >> Okay. Any further discussion? Kirsty >> I >> ad >> ready >> I >> Hillary >> I for me >> the second read amendments these were just for lack of a better term mistakes that I may have made that were caught by you guys in there that corrected um in the student handbook if you click on 500 we quickly changed it to read based on approved policies >> I noticed that thank you >> and then in 549 I There was one typo or maybe three that were caught through this is committed to provide safe, respectful, inclusive learning environment. I'm still get we're getting better with simply. >> Yeah, I think both
058those updates looked good to me. >> And then the last one was some spacing slide down. >> That's it action. >> Oh, it is. I I can make a motion that we um amend the following point policies 500 and 549. >> Second. >> Okay. Any further discussion? Kirsty >> I >> JD >> I >> Freddy >> I >> Hillary >> I >> and I'm an I as well. >> Yeah. And the last one was adopt amend. >> This was adopt practice. Um, I just was wondering where this complaint form would be found just right in in the policy like will it be posted somewhere else? >> They taught us that in if we made it a >> an exhibit instead of a standalone. Plus, it got rid of your 0.1, but it's right in there.
059So, if I'm an upset patron, I can go right to the policy, read it, and then there's a form will be inside of it. >> They don't have to go to a different policy. Make a motion that we adopt policy number 1012. >> It doesn't matter. >> Perfect. >> Kirsty. >> Hi. >> JD. >> Hi. >> Eddie. >> Hillary. >> Hi. >> And I'm an I as well. All right. Moving on to the consent agenda. Do I have a motion to approve the consent agenda? >> I so move. >> I can't. Sorry, >> I thought I heard JD say it, but I was sorry the delay was >> All right, Kirsty. >> Hi, >> JD. >> I >> Freddie >> I >> Hillary >> I for me as well. All right, good of the order.
060Next board meeting is April 14th. Um it's not on there, but I do have a couple other things to add to the good of the order because we haven't hit an hour yet on our meeting. Is that a requirement in the handbook? >> I'm going to make it a requirement. >> I need a new chair. >> It'll only take me a couple seconds if you let me finish. >> Sorry. >> You know, I don't speak very much. All right. So, I have set up a work session for our next board meeting, April 14th from 5 to 6. Um, I'm a new board chair. We have a new board member. Um it's Jason Lloyd with ISBA to kind of go over some board ethics, open meeting, etc. any questions that we might have. Um that'll be

A few of them would do leadership and um >> governance. >> Okay. >> Yeah. Phil left. >> Did we previously have this from Amy White? >> Some of it. Yeah. So, I just somebody different. >> Who's Who's Phil? What was Who's Phil Gore? Sorry. >> Phil Gore. He was part of the ISBA. He was over the governance and >> Oh, okay. >> kind of stuff like that.

We expect you to be >> Can she have those days off? >> Have those days off? >> No. >> It's part of the contract. >> I make a motion that we adjourn. I second. >> All right.
