001Yeah, good evening ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to a special meeting. Um, today's date is Febru I'm sorry, June 13, 2025 perform the meeting order today at 5:29 p.m. Everyone, please note when XAR will be clearly marked and take a moment to silence your cell phones. And before we do the pledge of Legend, Lisa Johnson, our superintendent, Dr. Dina Chalbert, first vice president Harold Seoff, second vice president Megan Nesman, trustees um Juan Leon and Leslie Cre and trustees Caroline Fanning and Lesbra as well as our assistant superintendent for quick um Mary Sevens and Council John Ch. at this point in time at 5 5:30 p.m. Lisa, before we answer into executive session, I guess few questions. Sure. Um, thank you everyone for 5:30. I pulled the meeting for 5:30 for yesterday. Um, and I guess we

002need we moved it to today for Friday to accommodate more. And I I didn't realize the superintendent was going to be here uh because I had asked for that confirmation. So, I appreciate that you're here. Um, I just wondered if before we go into executive session, are we going to come back out to take action um related to the district clerk? Well, that that's the that's one of the purpose of of our meeting right now, right? So, would we reopen after our executive session? Once we get Yeah, once we get finished executive session, depending what we decide on, we'll go back we'll come back out and go from there, I guess. Uh for John, we need an acting clerk right now. Right. So we would have to reopen to hopefully address the position of acting

003clerk. Yes. Right. Right. I just wanted to clarify that we would take probably take action after executive session. That's the purpose of that. Um and then also the same potentially for um the middle school acting position. Yeah. when we come back out if there's anything we have to act on or we'll let Google act on. Um my other question just following up was there was a request for the organizational chart of central administration. Um is that in today's transmitt? I I obviously haven't looked at the transmitt yet. Uh no, there are a number of the June 4th resolutions that are in today's transmitt. The transmitter sends a note to the board that it will be in the following week. Is there any way we can get it like earlier than the June 18th meeting so

004that we can talk about it? It's it's related to the district work and just maybe the potential of restructuring which was discussed. So could we get it sooner than next Friday? You're saying clarifying question restructuring central office. I think ideally it would be great to get it by Monday evening. That would give us time to read it, process it, and if we have questions that need to be discussed in public on the 18th, we have time to prepare. So when you say restructuring central office, you're talking about the competition of secretaries referring to. Yeah. Which is what the resolution had asked for. We just want to understand you know the resolution had requested what the job responsibilities of all people in central admin secretarial support staff and the district clerk in a flowchart so we

005can see who's doing what not just job descriptions like a flowchart. So all of that is in process. All of that is in process. We're still waiting from for some information from certain staff members to finalize the request. So that's in process, but may I ask for clarity on the board's intent to restructure district office personnel? Well, well, Dr. Talbert, I'm just going to speak for myself, but you know that we we are not renewing the position for superintendent of HR. We understand that that responsibility has to be taken on by someone. So, we're just trying to I mean I'm for me I'm trying to figure out what's the best way to make sure those duties are um attended to. So, the board has um moved forward to abolish the position of assistant superintendent for

006HR and then the board wants to restructure district office to accommodate for those duties. Is that what I'm hearing? Well, is a possibility, but I think before any decisions are made, what we need is to understand who's responsible for what in what capacity because without that understanding, we can't make a recommendation and perhaps nor should we. But if we're going to be in a position of voting yes to this, no to that. We need to know who's doing what. And I would anticipate that on the June 18th meeting, there's going to be a lot of conversation about this. So that's why we are requesting to get it before June. I think it would be wise for us to discuss this in executive session so that we can operate within our respective governance roles and responsibilities

007and boundaries. Also, is it protected by executive session? I'm not sure if it is because we're just talk we're not talking about personational changes are or not executive session discussion. But if we're talking about if I start to mention individual's names that has to occur personification structures or we're not talking about names, we're talking about positions, right? I know. But there's some names that I just want to everyone will be able to bring up. But I I just want to be able to bring up in depth of session which I'll be able to do when we go into depth session. I think we just have to um if there if there's requests of the consensus of the board right to obtain information in regards to the restructure of of the the cabinet as well as

008the the competition secretary and secret of secretaries in the in the building. But we do need to also it allows opportunity to determine who's going to be doing what and that and so once once once you get the information right now you we have obtain information about who's currently doing these roles and responsibility but if you're looking for restructuring then they have to look at who can take on those additional responsibilities. So I understand about getting the information. You're just like ahead of the writing. That's what we're asking. I guess they're getting the information, but we're not going to dictate or we trying to dictate how that structure is going to look. Well, we don't know. We're trying to get a better understanding. Put a deadline on the resolution. We want to have that information

009before. Should we be passing a resolution, John, to make sure we get it? That's that's what Well, sure. That's up to you, but that's certainly your problem. I agree. You know, I I think everyone should also realize this is going to go a little bit deeper because now a position has been abolished and we are putting additional responsibilities on other employees. Now, this is definitely going to become a union issue. So, this is Secretary um this is much deeper than you know, you know, like I I I don't think some of the board members I think you're looking at this on a surface level. However, this is going to go much further. Excuse me, John. Is confidential secretaries in a union? Speaking about other secretaries that are I I for me I was speaking about

010confidential secretaries for me. What's that's what I meant and that was the whole purpose in trying to get this like put to paper so that when we say secretary or confidential secretary we we're all speaking the same language. I would like for everyone in this room to have the same flowchart so we understand who's doing what where. Not to make any changes right now, just to understand if we were if anyone wants to change this, whether it's me, Deborah Talbert, you know, with Stevens, Lisa, that we're all understanding who's doing what. And I would I know the resolution was put in certain language, but you know, I I would add to that the district clerk I what was the current understanding that we understand how those need to be divied up because we don't know

011what the next um job description of the clerk will be. That's why we're here tonight. So when I am my thought process when I requested the flowchart was what's happening now not what do we think is going to happen because that's up for discussion but what's actually happening so we understand what makes the most sense if there is going to be a restructuring so you guys that flowchart with the responsibilities of the HR position as well. Yes. So you just are freely putting responsibilities on other employees on top of their responsibilities already. Not sure I follow up. No, but no one is Caroline's asking for the baseline. She's asking for the baseline like what exists right now. And actually we actually already have board consensus because we already passed the resolution for this. I think

012I'm just I'm just trying to provide I'm trying to get clarity that so your what's being requested from the resolution is just the um the roles and responsibility of the confidential secretaries. Well that the resolution you read it yeah I think that we never heard it so that's the clear you the night that you did this or was it it was it was at the meeting not the after when you guys met. No, it was in a public meeting and it was emailed to the board. So even weighed in on I'm clear on what the reason the timeline it's Yeah. So she's clear. We started the process. I can't give you something that I do not completely have at this point and it's in the process of being compiled. Is it ready for you today?

013No, it's not. Okay. Can it be ready Monday evening? That would be most helpful to us. We can do our best. Let's pass. Let's pass the resolution with a deadline. I think that's the best. Yeah. But let's also be fair because there's a tremendous amount of additional responsibilities and requests being put on the superintendent as well as well as you know many emails asking for different things. So you have to be realistic with our requests as well. So my my question also too I'm sorry if you know the question I have really is that if the information was obtained let's say are we trying is a decision trying to be made by this board of education on June 18th in terms of what the structure is going to change I think it's just to have

014a public discussion for the 18th and we need readily available information to have a productive conversation so public discussion in regards to the positions that and just regarding our our ideas on restructuring Okay. So, we're going to be dictating to the superintendent what what we feel she should be doing in terms of restructuring of the um we're going to provide suggestions or we're I have no idea because I see the flowchart. So, so hold on. I'll speak for myself. I mean I I would like to know the roles and responsibilities of each of these um okay confidential secretaries. I'm not sure if the resolution included if it was a wider scope to include other good. So you know what that that is a good thing for board members to understand. I agree that the roles

015and responsibilities this person takes care of this. This person takes care of this. And you know I mean look I was gone for a year. I mean some board members have been here for a year or so. That that's a good thing to have. No. And you have to understand that I I don't disagree with what you're saying. I I do agree that it's good information for the board members to have. I'm not disagreeing with that. But what I'm just saying is like what is the urgency to bring it to by June 18 to have discussion on the question the question is because once again we may have questions right. All right. So so for me the urgency is you know there's not an HR person right now. What what what do we have to

016do to make sure that that's taken care of? the HR person is here until June 30 until June 30. Well, that's here tonight to make a decision about how we go forward. So, if anything, it would have been great to have this information two weeks ago. Yeah, we've had a hard time all year with this district clerk position because it's like who's doing what. Like all year we've been struggling with so and so is doing this but I'm doing that and what this is in my role and d back and forth. So it's really it's not like coming out of the blue but I asking for this but I can I can honestly say that up to this point in time right with the previous district clerks that we had it was never a discrepancy

017of the responsibilities when Christian was here he did his job he didn't there was no question when Melissa was here she does her job and no questions right when Lynn came in midway you know what I mean clerk clerk's part so I have to be careful I'm going to go into exe said have a conversation be able to so we just finalize like when we can get ready for we can do names and then if you want to come back out and do a resolution I'm absolutely fine with that but I'm going to be able to do names and have discussion and whatnot. So therefore if you want to do a resolution we come back out you can do the resolution. I'm fine with that but I need to Yeah. So, President Johnson, I'm okay

018with going to executive session because some of this is going to go into what you're talking about, but in general terms, just talking about like the framework of things, that's not necessarily and I got that, but you see how that's why that's not necessarily exactly I need to also be able to speak names and whatnot. That's the other part, too. Um, I have a couple of questions, too. Um on Monday, uh we had a meeting and we asked that poster go up for assistant superintendent for business and finance. I think we were told it was going to go up the next day. I don't think it has gone up yet. No, I said I'll get with HR to go up this week and then I saw an email from President Johnson um asking about further

019inquiry and then I don't know what the outcome was from there. Well, what I'm sorry we so we had a motion with that as a quorum in a meeting that we said to to go forward with the posting. Yeah, but I wanted to ask some questions about the position in regards to what we don't point. It didn't go that I answered that, right? But there's other questions I had on that as well and that's what I wanted to talk about. So, so we're just didn't go forward with the resolution with the direction that was provided during the I think the problem here is that when the board if there's a majority board and is making a decision I feel like what what if one person said something like everything stops we're giving direction the board

020of education had a meeting and all of a sudden it stops but on the same token when there are times that there's been one board member that will mention something and everything takes place based on the one mention that one particular board member. So it it it so for when something does stop sometimes it does stop on the same token there are times when one board member will say something and from that point an action will be taken that you will act on it so you have to be fair in that respect okay so do you want to talk about it first yes I just want to talk about it that that was it okay no problem I have I just have the question so um I recently found well Lisa and I was recently

021found we were looking at a a policy and it wasn't uploaded to the website. Um, and it was adopted and I sent the board an email that there were a lot that were adopted and not uploaded. It is the role of the district clerk to the after the meeting is to upload adopted policies. We've made tremendous progress with the policy meeting and a substantial amount probably threearters of them have not been updated to the website. It is critical that the district's website is reflective of current information so parents, community members, anybody can understand the district's policies and that they're accurate. That hasn't been occurring. And some of it goes back I we started in October. Some of this is from October until to date. So I had asked if this can be immediately uploaded and

022our district clerk is absent right now is not right now. So, they're not capable of doing this. So, I asked which employee would be doing this and can it be done? I have not received an answer to any of this. So, I would like to make a motion. So, can I have Yeah. Can I just say something? Yeah. Um, so I've been in communication and part of the situation is that the final policy that needs to go up on board docs has not been finalized. That's what the situation is. So it's not it's not like it can it's not like it's a clean product. Someone can go into a file and just upload it there. So it's not like we can pass it on to one we cannot pass it to another person because there's

023certain things that need to be done on the bottom of that policy before it needs to be uploaded. That's what I was told. So I can mention we go into executive session but that okay so I guess let's talk about it more but I I have been more than willing to help with this for the last several months. Um, and there's been a lot of work by the policy committee for everybody that sits on the policy committee and for it not to be followed through is problematic. Um, and this goes back to this goes back to something from October when we did have a district clerk all the way to now. So, we had a district clerk and it wasn't being done by several individuals, right? So, we need to get this done. Um, I've

024been amending the policies, sharing them, but if something needs to be done, I mean, certainly I don't think a board member who's a volunteer should have to do this. I have been more than willing to do this, even though I have a full-time job to make sure it gets done because I find that if I haven't been jumping in, things just don't get done really, or it may take months if something needs to be cleaned up with like highlighting out, you know what I mean? like the highlighting out or the red out just making it a black print and then just putting the adoption date of the day the policy. I can do that to help out. Um I guess let's talk about executive session. If we need to do it, we come out. The

025next thing that I just want to bring up is um we had a email from a community member that um last week's agenda went up, but there was an agenda item missing. I asked that that be corrected and put up. Has that been done? Nobody answered me on that. I don't know what's been I think I'm not I'm not making excuses, but I think our biggest challenge is that we not having district clerks. Those are something that would have been taken care of. So now, no, I I I totally understand what's going on, right? Like, so we don't have a district clerk. A district clerk should I mean, we do have a district clerk. The district clerk's out. We're in a not a great situation, but that should not stop the business of the district.

026So, other people have to jump in. I will say when the board of education is asking, will the superintendent be coming to Friday's meeting and we have no answer? Will these policies be uploaded and we have no answer? Will the agenda be amended and we have no answer? It's problematic that the board isn't receiving answers. So, has this been done? I had asked the superintendent, too. I don't I don't know if the agenda has been amended. That has not been done. It has been discussed. For example, your clerk would have done this. Another member came together and provided this for us. Um there's information with policies that other members are doing. It's a lot to do. And so we've printed out, we are looking and discussing and seeing who can do what. So requests are

027not being ignored, but they just can't be delegated. One, some don't have access. Two, there are some items that are in PDF form that we need um in editable form before they can be posted so they can be properly noted as President Lisa was trying to explain. So there are a number of processes that have to take place before a final request can be met on certain things. I would say that it would be helpful to answer our emails and convey that but many emails are answered. I mean I I wouldn't want to I wouldn't want anyone to think that Dr. Talbot is not answering emails at all. Many requests from board members have been answer actually I would disagree. I think some of them have. I just had a followup on an email from

028Junth why that was canceled. I immediately asked why that was canceled. I had to send a reminder yesterday. So it was almost a week later that I got an answer. So the emails are not being answered um in a timely fashion. If we're asking if the superintendent is attending a meeting on Friday and we have no answer, I came into today not even knowing if the superintendent was here. Okay. Email from someone. I think um Trusty Mesa mentioned that she emailed that to me. there. I didn't see a request that if I was attending today, I had shared with the board that I had commitments this week. Actually, I made some major arrangements to be here this week when we have our calendar plan for the year. I work around that. There was nothing scheduled

029in terms of board meetings this week and I had previous commitments. So, even tonight, I made arrangements to be here. I as did as did the rest of us. I will say you know the superintendent has to attend emergency meeting. So whatever has to be done every emergency meeting. These meetings were coming with day and two days notice. I do have I do have commitments. Yes. As do you. But but everyone can't be available for every moment. The superintendent needs to be. But on available that's an unfair statement to assume that I'm not available and I am extremely available. We had a we had a policy meeting on Tuesday that you originally said you couldn't attend, but when we were going to have an emergency meeting. You said that you would be available up till

0306:30 could possibly be available up to then when there was no meeting. I kept my commitment because I don't want to break my promises to my commitments and if I can keep my word, I do my best to do that. So my so the qu so the answer to has the agenda been um amended and uploaded is no. But can I just also say something and this is just my perspective on it. There were on June on June 14 June 4th there were 15 different resolutions that were placed before um the superintendent and the cabinet. Those resolutions some of them had deadlines that had to be met and also others that you're still waiting for that information to come forward. On top of that, then we had the emergency meeting that was on on Monday.

031When the emergency meeting was called on Monday, there was no clarity that was provided to any of us. What was the reason for that emergency meeting? I I actually put the reasons in the email. Well, we can't discuss personnel who called me and I did say, right, but the key the key the key the key is this. If it's related to a personal matter, at least give the um at least let the superintendent know what that personal matter is. Right. So for me personally on Monday I could not attend on Monday but I said okay I I said I was available on Tuesday to come but there was no no giving in terms of doing it on Monday versus Tuesday based on what the discussion that occurred on Monday in second session that could have

032waited to Tuesday. There was no reason why we had to do it on Monday. So that's my problem. If if it's a personal matter that needs to be discussed as an emergency situation, the courtesy should be given to the superintendent so therefore she could be able to maybe address that personal matter. If not, it can be addressed in executive session. So for Monday's meeting, I was making myself available that I called in a corner that was secure from a room that was secure, right, to call into that meeting, but I was not able to attend the the entire meeting. So my the point that I'm trying to make is this. I'm not and you people may see that as I'm making excuses for Dr. but I'm not. But what I'm saying is that we're down

033a district clerk. We're down a consultant as as for a district clerk. We're down. There's two people. I can't go I can't because I can't I got I gota I got to speak names, right? So So I I need I need to be able to speak names. So therefore I can get my I can you can understand what I'm talking about. So all I'm just trying to say that there's been restructuring or re changes in different positions within this building. People who don't have the same level of experience and expertise as other people have had. So when we go into executive session, I'll be able to give you names and I'll be able to. So that's just my my feeling of is that no one's ignoring people. Okay. What I said no one's ignoring people.

034It certainly feels like some some of the emails are being ignored. It does. You know, many emails, but I'm just many emails have been responded as a matter of fact. So, um, you have actually said thank you to many of those requests. Yes, I have received, but there's many, many that have not been answered. I'd like to say many and once again, everyone has a job to do. Excuse me, I'm speaking. Drop everything your request. Excuse me. I'm speaking. So, um, I Sorry. No, I just want to say something. I want to address the meeting. The emergency meeting was called because there was an uh it was felt that there was an emergency as far as personnel through the discussion. I can't get into it. You know, um there was some discussion that had to

035be explored further. So, there was an immed. The reason why Tuesday was not accommodated is because we already had a policy meeting set for Tuesday. We have to have a cell phone policy in place which was a priority which the board really dictated that we should have this for 6:18 which is why Tuesday was not accommodated. So I want to set the set the record straight. Yeah but we could have met the policy meeting but go ahead. I call for the meeting and a board trustee. Let me just so the public can understand I'm saying for the public. We understand that any board member may call an emergency meeting and if you have a majority that can attend, if they all can attend, fantastic. If you have a majority and and you can move forward.

036So to say, oh, you can't. That's just not how it works. Um but if I how how I had a work related I understand there are times that you know I might not be able to either. We all have families and some of us have jobs. This was a workrelated that I could not get out. Lisa I'm not I'm not I'm not bashing you for it. I'm just saying there was an emergency meeting was called and some pe people you know were made themselves available. There have been times where I called an emergency meeting and and a majority of people said no, I can't attend and the emergency meeting didn't happen. That has happened at least twice before while I have been on this board. I've called it. The majority said not available. It didn't

037happen. This time majority was available. We had it. To make it seem as if it was something uh that it wasn't is not fair. Emergency meeting was called, you know, um and discussion was had. We needed legal counsel. I can't get into it for confidentiality reasons, but you know, I think sure we could go into executive session and if resolutions need to be made, they need to be made. Can I mostly go to I'm sorry, Miss Johnson. Can I just bring up something real quick? Real real real quick. It's a quick thing. Um, uh, a question about the district calendar that we are going to be set to be approving on the reorg meeting day. Um, so I did send Dr. Jan Talbert an email and he did respond and he said it was with

038syntax. You know you didn't receive it back yet. Two questions. When do you anticipate receiving it back from syntax? Number two, I'm assuming you had to give them the information like which days you want off and all that other stuff. If if that calendar is not coming back from syntax in a reasonable time, is there something else you can provide to the board that shows like a calendar for for the for that? Okay, so let me clarify the um administrative team all contribute to the development of the calendar. Um it goes through a number of drafts. What draft are we on now, Stephen? Draft two. We're on draft two. Um, we did receive something back from Syntax, but we're back collaborating with administrators to solidify the dates. To my knowledge, I was not aware that

039this calendar is board approved. Am I Is this the I mean, we we approved the school calendar. I we approved the school calendar, I think, a couple of months ago. That was approved dates. Yes. Yeah. But this is the district calendar that where all the events go on from the schools. Okay. So we did approve the academic calendar 2526 already. I can provide you a copy of that. Okay. I mean that is that what you're looking is that you asking for? That's what I was asking for my original email. I was told it was it was syntax. Hey district district calendar. So so so hold on. What what I'm looking for is the actual calendar that's going to be printed and in the hopes everyone's fine. That's the district and that's complete. Well, you can

040have a draft the second draft. Okay. So, that that's what I'm asking that's what I'm asking for if the rest my fellow colleagues would like that too. And the reason why I'm putting so much stress on this is because last reorgan meeting uh a couple days before and you might remember the union um union members came up and said, "Wait, you have you have um a day off on a holiday or a holiday on a day off. It the calendar had to get readjusted." Okay. As a parent, there were times on this calendar where things didn't line up. Okay. And what was very difficult was last month um a time a time a pickup time wasn't accurate where the calendar said it's a half day and I'm thinking okay I have to pick up my

041you know my child at this time but then it was actually like a 10:30 dismissal which was which was problematic and I didn't know that until another parent said hey Juan do you know it's a 10:30 dismissal today and I said oh wow the calendar says It's the half day. So that kind of stuff I I would like that kind of stuff to not happen this year or or keep that kind of stuff to a minimum if possible. So that that's why that's why I'm stressing this. Yeah. Right. I completely understand whenever you're dealing with a hard copy calendar, a lot of districts have gone away from a hard copy because those dates and times are fixed and they can't be erased. We do have a online calendar um where we do have the schools

042to implement their changes on that online calendar but once it goes into print it's frozen and there are times when things will change. We do ask them to notify parents via parent square flyers emails. Um, so they do put a lot of thought and energy into mapping that calendar out and we can share it, but it's still it's never going to be it's never it's always last year was very very imperfect. I Yeah, personally I don't even use it. So they hear that it could be something that we move away from even and if we're going to transition people love to get it opinions everyone has different opinions but it kind of makes me question like our transition with the website too and if but I would advocate for both I would advocate for you

043know an online calendar that is updated in real time because we know that's the most accurate but a p a print calendar that's as accurate as possible at print time that goes in a household Because in many households there's one person who's like, you know, masterminding everything and then there's other people who are only checking what's in print and it's kind of helpful for that to be accurate whether it's a spouse, you know, a grandparent, children themselves. So I lose all the events or sports events on it too. Oh yeah. It's been an issue for years and I do remember that when there is a discrepancy the building principal does send out you know in the newsletter or a special note that there was change in the calendar. So I think that's been addressed. I

044think that the I understand people's concerns in regards to this and I think Dr. Talby just clearly explained the situation and I think what's most important is that once it goes to to print it and goes out if the I'm sure the reminder goes to building administrators that soon as there's a change that's taking place in that particular month. Make sure they notify the parents ahead of time that this is going to take place or not take place or it's going to be a change in time because those are things that we can't but do you understand what I'm saying? I'm I'm I'm saying that it's it's understandable that changes do happen. What I'm saying is, and you know, I, you know, I have kids that that are old. I can look at this calendar

045for a while. Last year was particularly worse than any other year I've experienced. That's what I'm saying. I know there's going to be some flexibility and some changes, but if we can try to make it as good as we can, as accurate as we can, and you know, and for me that means getting that information out to us, getting it out to whoever has to take a look at it and just have have some more eyes on it so that they can see, oh, wait, this doesn't make sense or I know this and this this, you know, people that know the more people that can take a look at it before it goes to print might be a good idea. Yeah. I don't think I don't think it's uncommon for boards to view a draft

046calendar. I'm understand change two um for somebody that doesn't have kids in the school. You know, I know that I I look at it sometimes for certain things and um two years ago the election date was wrong and that was like a big problem that people don't have kids in the district and you know I save my calendar every year. I have it there to look up things and people do that and people that don't have kids here and that became a big thing that people had the wrong date. So more eyes on it shouldn't be an issue. The board should be getting draft really they should be really getting a draft copy before it goes to print so that if there's any input that we have also that's that's something that should I know

047in the past that we we did get a draft copy of the calendar before it it went to practice to see the board questions and suggestions. So that that point and that's what's been asked. We're planning to do that. Um, Miss Stevens has been working really hard on the the calendar um, meeting with principles, making some various changes and I think we're almost there, right? So, you probably send it home on Friday [Music] on Friday. That would be pretty. So the plan is for the end of July to have it totally I'm sorry for the end of June to have it totally complete and then we're just waiting for any changes to the board that we would Well, I have a question. Is there a way it could be sent electronic format? So on June

04818th if we have feedback we could give it. No, it's going to she said by next Friday. No, but I'm asking I I think you were saying you were going to send home hard copy or did you say no electronic? No. Oh, you didn't say we'll send it home on Friday. Electronic on Friday. But I'm wondering is there a way if you already have it in electronic format is it not too much PDF? Yes. So can you send it to us you know so that we have it before Wednesday so if they feed back from any board members we will be able to do it in public. I can but the draft that I have in PDF doesn't include the reision. Oh I understand. So I you have to work on that. So those I'm

049submitting Monday and I expect them back maybe by the end of next week or by the following Monday. You're submitting the revisions on Monday. Wait, so you haven't revised anything yet? No. No, not yet. So we have to submit an Excel sheet with our revisions. So that's how we do it. It's ongoing process. Okay. So, even though we're on number two draft with syntax, we've been on several drafts internally, maybe like five or six before we even get to uh syntax with the calendar. All right. Can I have a motion to go into that session at 608 for um for the reason for particular person's employment history and advice from council? All right. Um first, Carol will second. All those in favor? 70. It's anticipated uh I think some folks have to be out of

050here by 7. Um so it's anticipated that we will reop. So everyone has to meet up. You want to sit in the room? You can sit in the room or sit outside. Last I'm open. All right. So, if I resume open at 7:50 p.m. Um, the board is still here. Everyone still from before.
