001e e e at 1700 wall of central office building I'd like to welcome everyone everyone is present Miss Becky is video conferenced in I need the approval of the agenda with the addition of adding item 6E uh field trip to eighth region to use a bus to take kids down I make a motion we approve the agenda with the addition John so moves I second Miss Ashley seconds all in favor signify saying I I I I all oppose same sign motion Carri I'd like the board to take a minute to stand and let's have a moment of silence for Mr Kyle Jones a student here that was tragically killed in an auto automotive accident thank you uh public comments um par I have something really quick I mentioned I forgot to mention at the last
002time I'm Sher brck I'm through the Three Rivers health district but I also um worked on a grant last summer uh that was awarded for interact for health and it was to increase school safety for walking routes to and from school that's something that U the judge executive Ryan mors and Mr Arin and I met on and they are creating some bids for that to bid out the project and so that's where we are with that once we get those bid specs we'll bring it to you and hopefully um we will get rolling on that project as as soon as possible so um we have four main areas that we're looking at is of creating a sidewalk in front of the rural Pines like the senior living place there and they're all about that too
003because they have a lot of residents there that are will chair mobility stuff too so and then creating a walkway from that area over to the upper El Elementary and then creating a sidewalk from the 42 to the district office Upper Elementary and then Mr Arvin made a good point when we were meeting we used the uh School sidewalks for so every 5K that's in that is ever held in the city limits uses the school area and there's not a walking loop as far as sidewalks go so a sidewalk that will connect I believe it's at the end of the upper ele end of the middle school that goes up con that right there in in that grassy area so we're going to bid it all out and we're going to see what we how
004much money we have and what we can spend it on so once we get there I'll report back and uh Mr Arvin in your meetings do you know like if there's any uh I guess do you all know how much you're going to get on that yet yes um so we received aund we received $100,000 but um we're waiting on the last payment of from that and when they announced it interact for health they said that they were awarding us 120,000 so if they give us 120,000 we're going to take it we're going to use it so but we it could be 100 though the reason I was asking if say something come in at 130 or I I think if we're getting all that done I I would ask the board to maybe entertain
005the motion at at some point Point like if they need an extra 10 15 to get all the projects done that they're wanting done at that time maybe Mr AR coming back to the board and asking if there is additional to S and say Hey you know would the board consider entertaining this to finish this project out because we've got the one project over it was started and never finished it still needs to go from I think it's Wildcat drive there out to 42 in that section was never completed when the city done the couple years ago Chuck Cash's first year here when City done sidewalks we give him the land to put sidewalks down if you remember it was supposed to run from 42 all the way back they done the Section from the
006right side where the high school parking is back to the mobile home part but they never finished the front part of it definitely I can't speak for the this report but they Ryan had did mention if there's any gaps there to that they could help with that as well so I mean the way I appreciate it appreciate the grants but if we can if say you all do come up short then to get them all your what you're wanting done I I think it would be good for the board to take a look at it to see if what we can do on that to get the projects completed and I guess I should also mention in addition to just sidewalks a lot of it is some of it is lighting and some is just
007pedestrian um signage and things like that too so and we did include this area over here long yes where the kids walk every day okay yes any other public comments Mr Arvin I'll let you have the floor uh just just a brief moment uh you know we it was you know tragic and in the loss of a student um you know this weekend um it it it was very nice Sunday night you know they they didn't necessarily want to do anything big but because he was a football player and was so close with with all those kids that uh they kind of got a group chat about doing a little thing for the football team and that very quickly spread to a lot of the senior class and some of the students um so they
008had a very nice little Memorial that some of the family members came to uh Sunday night um you know to to honor Kyle um and it was great to see especially knowing that we were we were off school on Monday uh they had opportunities just to talk to each other and share stories uh so that was that that was very nice kudos to our high school people that kind of threw that together uh at the last minute spoke with his mom and sister today uh they've just been overwhelmed by the support of the community and everybody that has been in contact with them uh to help them and uh he will have you know funeral services a visitation on Friday uh at at the funeral home here in town um and then a short visitation
009followed by service at the high school gymnasium on Saturday uh from 10 to 12 with the service being at 12 so um we're obviously again keeping them in our thoughts and prayers um but just staying in communication with them uh about everything uh and just making sure we're there for them during this time anyone else moving on board member comments Miss Becky nothing for me thank you Miss Amanda nothing thank you Miss Ashley Mr Jones Reserve motion to approve the consent agenda I move to approve Mr Amanda so moves I see Mr Jones seconds any discussion he no discussion all in favor signify by saying I I all oppos same sign 5 motion carries recommended action item 6A review approve changing insurance broker from KMI and Liberty Mutual policies uh Jak and I had talked
