002policy but we did now get that sample policy it's long but I don't you want to keep the other we just got that sample to strike out the exit field what portion of that in our policy to whatever your preference so you think of that both I say I think you There's in the other policy that came there's other pieces on board management and I went through it just the other day and we and I recommend striking out the exhibition board member portion of that policy. Okay. So that it's an adjustment that you'll get at the later this week for the meeting after break. So So my was strike that out maintain this policy because we wrote it right what the district that's Yeah. I was fine with it if you were. I just wanted

There's I think there's one I think that's there's like one policy plus the wallet policy and the city policy that we've gone over already and it's so whether we meet in person or being electronically that'll be your call but I don't I don't know if there's a reason there's going to be I think three things that all have been discussed. Yeah. And that's just a reminder that is the day after that's the 22nd. Any other questions, comments, concerns on that? All in favor? I oppose. Motion carries. Personal action.

I posted informationational or discussions just the upcoming meeting dates are there or just add your calendars to make sure they're there. And again, as you can see, the Tuesday after break, we have the policy committee meeting. Again, we can set up electronic or in person. But at 5:30, we adopt the QB and MOSI's budgets. Uh, I sent the email out to you. I think I think Michelle, were you the one that went to the the whole budget presentation? Jamie and I Jamie Bolton. I'm sorry, Jamie. I didn't exclude you, but um the is that's But I did uh I I sent out the link to the presentation to

005the entire board. So if anything else wanted to see I know last year you had questions about budget as well as that. So there's questions that we can from that Tuesday the 20th is our district election. Uh you know I want to bring this to your attention. Pam and I have a discussion about this today. Just so you're aware apparently the board of elections has developed a new system that does not allow Pam to delineate between voter voter voting locations. So in essence we are kind of one master list of all of the district residents that are eligible to vote. So in the past we able to have an angelical list and a development list and so it'll be we're working at the tables we're able to go through and quickly find the names and

006verify whether or not people are able to register are registered to vote in that location. So we're still learning about this is in this infancy but they followed up after we spoke today. So I guess one there's not a way to delineate between the two uh voting sites in they give you all the registered voters and then you can just filter the Excel spreadsheet by who's in what? It's exactly the conversation. easy easy if we could do that but like an example there was a name that I'm not going to say but their address is Belmont but they are in the voter district it's weird how the mapping is so we talked about using last year's roles and to actually taking secretaries to asking our secretaries to go through the list and to highlight color

007code who is Belmont who is Angelica with two master books I think that's the labor that would do that or the other option and I know this is a touching something for the board but is to have back to one voting site. So this came to me this came to me in Pam today about 3:00 today. So, and if I remember right, from going from two sites to one site, going back to two, we didn't see a huge influx of overall voters. If I remember the numbers kind of stayed the highest going was it went down when everybody got absent, right? Other than that, it's very normal. consistent maybe even every other year one year now next year Angelica but one voting it would cover voting inspectors one um so I I don't know if

008we can solve the problem today but I just wanted to bring you technology to let you know that they got we're not going to be able to do anything for this year or it's too late right so so how do they help me break it down is my that one. How did they put together anyway? I mean, we have Westwood there. That's we pulled a list from from the voter district list and normally it was on that voting district and Angela voting district. So the outlier west they're listed in like Westman's Angela voting district. So they're listed on that master. listed on a master list. So they already have a master list if they're spreading Angelica and West Almond out. But they just got a new system. So now it's all joined. It's not separated

009anymore. We're the only district that has two. Yeah, they've had the system because I want to say it was the same system they had in the fall and they ran into problems in the fall, which we don't have anything in the fall, but I only know because I sat there when all the numbers came in. Well, I don't know, but I like I just wanted to bring it to your attention. We're we're still learning about about this, but it doesn't seem like there to your point, Michelle, I ask the exact same questions. How do we we just sell? So it's either there will be two like two of the same master list one each location and that we'll have to color code or highlight somehow who's registered in Belmont Delta or the rest for just

010I my only concern is that that's something the board wants to go back with and that's obviously a board's choice. My concern is I certainly would look forward to doing it this year. There's uh you'd have to have plenty of notice out there. No, we can't do it. So, I mean, that's something the board can discuss over the retreat and see if there's different options. So, we can we still have those numbers from the last 10 years, 10 years. Oh, yeah. because we I know it's been at least 10 years since we switch back and forth a couple times. Yeah. Well, it depends on how many voting sites they have, right? all the other would be it would be easy if it was address but we don't have I need a uh motion to [Music]

011return with a motion. I'll second. So second. All in favor? I need a motion to enter the
